BCLC antes up less casino cash

by Heather Colpitts hcolpitts@langleyadvance.com

Casino revenue for Langley City are down $215,000 this year.

The City’s take is $16,000 higher than budgeted for the third quarter of 2014 but the amounts for the rest of the year are off.

The previous two quarters (January to

March and April to June) were down, so the net drop for the year so far is about $215,000.

The City budgeted $5.75 million for 2014, and is on course to make about $5.5 million this year.

“We will be building the 2015 based on that funding source,” City corporate services director Darrin Leite told City council on Nov. 3.

The lower revenues through Cascades Casino are part of a downward trend as the province allows more gaming. The City received $6.73 million in 2009, $6.565 million in 2010, $5.94 in 2011, $5.92 in 2012, $5.78 in 2013 and $5.53 in 2014.

Another factor in the reduced revenue, the

City discovered, was generous severance for BC Lottery Corp. management. It meant a $170,000 reduction in the first quarter.

The City sought an explanation from BCLC and was told it was due to a restructuring initiative.

Payouts to communities were down by about $25 million earlier this year.

City Councillor Dave Hall wants to get a better sense of what’s going on in gaming.

“Do we anticipate bringing the casino people in [before the next budget]?” he asked.

“We’re really dependent on their successes or relapses.”

Staff will ask for a meeting.

Christmas charity

Fill the kettles Legacy left by Seniors Games

The Salvation Army is setting up for its annual Christmas Kettle Campaign.

The kettles are coming out of storage and will soon be appearing all around town – a signal that Christmas is approaching.

The annual Christmas Kettle Campaign for the Salvation Army Gateway of Hope’s biggest fundraiser of the year.

All proceeds go to fund the Family Services Department at the Langley shelter.

Family Services helps those in need with community meals, clothing and material assistance, Christmas hampers, school supplies, the Skillet 101 cooking class, and more.

Every year, the Christmas Kettle Campaign runs from mid-November through Dec. 24.

This year’s campaign starts on Nov. 13.

Every day of the campaign, 20-plus locations need at least five volunteers each, to cover two-hour shifts – more than 3,000 shifts need to be covered.

“I really enjoyed my time as a kettle host last year,” said Natalie de Haan. “It’s an easy way to give back to my community, and it’s a fun experience.”

A volunteer is asked to stand next to a red kettle while greeting customers as they enter shops. The kettle bells are rung to remind community members what time of year it is, and to remember those in need.

The Salvation Army welcomes those who play instruments or enjoy singing carols to share their talents at a kettle this season.

“The number of volunteers we have for the 2014 kettle season can make all the difference in this fundraiser,” said Troy Gaglardi, director of community resources at Gateway of Hope. “We ask community members to consider giving a small amount of time to this important cause.”

Kettle volunteer applications are available at Gateway of Hope, or can be downloaded online at www.gatewayofhope.ca.

A last minute funding scramble and volunteer burnout were factors in the BC Senior Games.

by Heather Colpitts hcolpitts@langleyadvance.com

The community will end up with a legacy of about $10,000 from hosting the BC Seniors Games.

But not before having to borrow money from Langley Township and City.

In July games organizers approached the City and received $15,000 and another $60,000 from the Township.

“The games were not an easy thing to pull off financially,” said Michael Jackstein, vice president of the local Seniors Games Society.

With the loans, the organizers were able to meet their financial commitments and pull off the games.

The games ended up costing almost $700,000.

About 28 per cent came from the provincial government, another 22 per cent from the almost 4,000 games participants through

“I know we will remember it for a long time,” said City Councillor Teri James.

Coun. Dave Hall wondered when the community should consider hosting events in the future.

Jackstein suggested revisiting the issue in about three years since putting in bids would take a couple of years to work through the process. By then, residents would be ready for the challenge, he said.

Langley Township

Firefighters sign new contract Langley Township’s firefighters have settled for a six per cent wage increase over two years.

A collective agreement has been reached between Langley Township and its career firefighters.

The settlement was finalized on Oct. 27, when a new collective agreement was ratified by the Township council.

A tentative agreement had been reached by the negotiating teams on Oct. 24 and was ratified by Local 4550 of the International Association of Firefighters (IAFF) on Oct. 26.

The two-year agreement is for the years 2010 and 2011, and will see the

Township’s career firefighters receive a three per cent wage increase per year, for a total of six per cent.

“I am pleased that both parties came to an agreement for the 2010/2011 contract and even more pleased that the local has agreed to accept our offer to start negotiating the 2012 agreement this week,” said Township fire chief Stephen Gamble.

Negotiations were scheduled to start on Wednesday, Oct 29 for the next phase of the contract.

The 2010/11 agreement features an increase in the extended health benefit annual deductible from $100 to $125, eliminates one vacation day and includes the Family Day statutory holiday, and establishes a Promotional Procedures and Training Committee.

Fire

Boat burns and sinks

Woman injured by truck

A boat went down in the Fraser River near Fort Langley early Tuesday.

by Matthew Claxton

Three young women were hurt in two separate hit and runs, including one who required surgery.

mclaxton@langleyadvance.com

by Matthew Claxton mclaxton@langleyadvance.com

Three pedestrians were hurt in two separate hit and runs in the last few weeks in Langley.

On Oct. 25, at about 6:45 p.m. two teenaged girls were crossing the intersection at 88th Avenue and 202nd Street, heading south in the crosswalk, said Cpl. Holly Marks, spokesperson for the Langley RCMP. They were hit by a car making a left turn from 88th onto 202nd Street.

Both were sideswiped and knocked to the ground.

BC Ambulance paramedics gave the two medical attention at the scene, and fortunately they were not hurt badly. Neither was taken to the hospital.

The car in this incident was a newer model white SUV or van, Marks said.

On Oct. 29, two young women were walking east on the south shoulder of 32nd Avenue in the 20200 block, in Brookswood.

The suspect vehicle in this case was also driving eastbound, said Marks.

The truck stopped just past the young women, then backed up onto the shoulder. It ran over one of the young women’s ankles.

When she screamed, the driver sped off heading east. The victim required surgery, and is now recovering from the hit and run.

The vehicle is a white Dodge or Ford pickup with mud tires and bush lights on top of the cab, said Marks. It was clean at the time of the incident.

There were two people in the truck, Caucasian men in their 20s.

Anyone with information that could help police find either of the hit and run drivers can call the Langley RCMP at 604-532-3200, or to remain anonymous, call CrimeStoppers at 1-800-222-8477 (TIPS).

Langley Township Fire Department

A fire destroyed a boat near a private dock on Langley’s Fraser River shore.

Langley firefighters battled a blaze on board a boat at a private dock along the shore of the Fraser River Tuesday morning.

The call came in at around 8:30 a.m., said assistant fire chief Bruce Ferguson. The boat is located in the 10200 block of Allard Crescent “Nobody was on board when it started,” Ferguson said, and no one was harmed by the fire.

Firefighters were attempting to

fight the blaze from the dock, and it took several hours and four fire crews in total to extinguish the flames.

Additional fire crews were called to the scene at 9:30 to relieve the original crews who had been fighting the fire for almost an hour.

There are hydrants along Allard Crescent, said Ferguson, so water was available.

A large portion of the boat burned, and what was left filled with water and sank next to the dock.

Ferguson believed a private company was to put booms in the area to contain any spilled fuel and oil from the power boat.

So far firefighters have no idea about the cause of the fire.

Freedom has responsibilty

Two of the most important days that can happen in a year are happening next week.

They’re more important than any other day with any significance attached – more important than Christmas or Hannukah or Diwali or Easter or Ramadan or… any religious holiday, because both days transcend any personal preference for faith.

The two days are connected in a much more profound way than that, this year at least, they fall on the same Sunday-toSaturday line on your typical calendar.

Remembrance Day on Tuesday, Nov. 11, is about recognizing and honouring the hundreds of thousands of Canadians – and millions more from numerous other nations around the world – who put their lives on the line in defence of individual freedom.

Tens of thousands of those Canadians paid the price that so many others with them were willing to wager that the freedom of their country’s children and their children’s children was worth everything.

And Saturday, Nov. 15, is Civic Election Day all over B.C. It’s the day that we all get to prove that we appreciate the freedom that has been won for us at such great cost.

We’re not going to condescend to suggest that if you don’t vote then you are disrespecting the veterans who risked so much, or that you are dishonouring those who gave up everything except maybe a tip of the hat from us on Remembrance Day each year.

The freedom to choose our leaders, whether at the community, provincial, or federal level, is perhaps the most important freedom that we have.

And it includes the freedom to decide that you’ll leave that choice to others.

When you get down to it, though, that’s a cop-out, isn’t it? Not voting really means you’re not bothering.

The danger of that, of course, is that one day you may suddenly realize that you no longer have that freedom – that you’ve allowed others to take it away from you.

Freedom, after all, is not just a right, it’s also a responsibility.

The Parade Ground Beneath Our Feet

What you’re telling us on Facebook

We heard some folks were upset about •election signs posted alongside Fort Langley Cemetery, with Remembrance Day coming up… so we asked.

Doug Hamilton – Being a Legion Member for 15 years, any signs in front of the cemetery and cenotaph are a sign of disrespect, not only to the vets but the others as well. Who ever signs those belong to, I would seriously not vote for them, and ask others to do the same. No, I do not live in Fort Langley, but I don’t care where this happens, I would still say this!

Karla Jane – Just drove past and I was appalled at the amount of signs. Regardless of where they are, it is way too many. Can’t even read who they are for, as the amount is distracting.

KT Trondsen – How disrespectful. A graveyard is not the place to promote yourself.

Dear Editor, Candidates running for office in the Township have attended two well planned and well advertised all-candidate events, attended by all the candidates, and the discussion was lively.

Now a group calls for an all-candidates meeting to conflict with a planned

Signs appall

Dear Editor, I am appalled and disgusted that council has not introduced strong bylaws to limit of candidate sign numbers and locations.

Anyone coming to Fort Langley via Glover Road will see 80 to 100 signs polluting our view – and most disturbing is that mayor, councillors, trustees, and wannabee politicians all have something in common: they disrespect and disregard those who have laid their loved ones to rest, and the men and women who gave up their lives for their communities and country.

Extremism

Coach fired for ‘disturbing’ Nazi posts

Special to the Langley Advance

A Langley man who coached minor hockey in North Delta has been fired for posting Nazi propaganda to his Facebook page.

“You can’t be a Nazi and coach kids hockey,” said one concerned parent.

The North Delta Minor Hockey Association fired Christopher Maximilian Sandau, 33, from its rep hockey program on Saturday (Nov. 1) after receiving information about “disturbing” public social media posts.

“The posts contained extreme and objectionable material believed to be incompatible with an

RCMP

Suspect in custody A single man is facing 24 charges after an alleged break-in spree in September.

by Matthew Claxton An investigation into break-ins at underground parking garages led to 24 separate charges against a Langley man.

Police were called out on Sept. 23 for similar breakins at apartment complexes in the 20800 and 20900 blocks of 56th Avenue, said Cpl. Holly Marks, spokesperson for the Langley RCMP. In both garages, multiple cars had been broken into and a number of items had been stolen.

An officer with the Street Enforcement Unit identified a possible suspect from the surveillance photos taken in the two apartment buildings.

Patrick Wayne Eliason, a 44-year-old local man, is now in custody for charges including six counts of theft under $5,000, three counts of break and enter, six counts of mischief, and four counts of failure to comply with a probation order He is being held in custody, with his next appearance in Surrey Provincial Court on Dec. 16.

“These are the types of crimes that frustrate and anger most residents of our community, and they are by far the most common,” said Insp. Murray Power, officer in charge of the Langley RCMP. “It takes a great deal of policing resources to capture these types of criminals and Langley detachment is regularly making that investment. Unfortunately this is but one suspect and we require continued support and vigilance of everyone to stay on top of their activities.”

“I wasn’t trying to impose this knowledge on anybody.”

Sandau said that from the second he arrived at the arena parking lot to leaving it after a hockey practice or game, he never breathed a word about Nazism.

“The whole time I was coaching with these kids and interacting with the kids, my focus was only hockey.”

Asked if he’s a Nazi, Sandau replied, “To me that is a derogatory term.”

He said he’s not a skinhead or a member of any political organization. “I’m just an individual. I’m on my own,” he said.

He likened his interests to scholarly pursuit. “I’m a big history buff.”

Sandau said he played professional hockey in Germany and has visited the memorial sites of concentration camps like Dachau. As for the Holocaust, Sandau maintains, “There is no such plan, there was no idea.”

over which Sandau wrote “may god be with us and the truth prevail,” another swastika with the message “If this flag offends you you need a history lesson,” and a photoshopped image of an astronaut standing on the moon, doing a “sieg heil” salute to a Nazi flag.

There’s a photo of Hitler, with the message “Adolf Hitler: The Greatest Story Never Told,” and many other postings of similar subject matter that were still on his Facebook page Wednesday.

Sandau had been coaching players Grades 6 to 9.

“It really was my livelihood. Hockey has been my life,” he told the Surrey Now after being fired. “My view on the history basically got me canned. A lot of people have no idea about the other side of the story.”

Sandau said he realizes his views are controversial.

“I get it, it’s a really touchy subject,” he said.

Still, he doesn’t think it was fair that he was fired.

“The NDMHA requires that our coaches present themselves as positive role models for our children athletes,” she added.

Cairney said the association’s board of directors voted to “relieve this coach of all association” with the NDMHA effective Nov. 1, and that alternate coaching arrangements have been put in place.

She said parents of the children on both teams have been informed of the firing and the board’s legal counsel has advised them to make no further comment.

Animal welfare

LAPS announces specialty centre for sick cats Ken the Can Man and other efforts will fund a feline isolation facility.

by Roxanne Hooper rhooper@langleyadvance.com

It was Ken McBride’s first time at the Furry Tail Endings gala on Saturday night, but the Walnut Grove retiree insists it will not be his last.

The night will forever be engrained in his memory, in large part because he was recognized as one of the most outstanding volunteers for Langley Animal Protection Society.

But, it didn’t hurt that McBride and his wife Charmaine also won a $5,000 dream vacation anywhere. The LAPS travel lottery kicked off in early and culminated with the draw at this weekend’s gala, helping raise $14,000 towards the night’s fundraising, said Sean Baker, executive director of the Langley Animal Protection Society.

“I’m just so glad that Ken won, not just because he’s an incredible volun-

teer and does so much for us, but just because I think he and his wife will really appreciate the trip,” Baker said.

McBride, 70, and his wife were still undecided Monday as to where they’d travel with the money, but McBride said he might return to his homeland of North Ireland for a visit.

Ken, the can man

About 10 years back, McBride took up walking dogs a few times a week for LAPS. While the dog lover enjoyed his volunteer duties, he felt he could do more. Fast forward a few years, and he strolled into the shelter manager’s office in 2007, pitching the idea of distributing collection cans to businesses around town that would encourage people to part with their spare change for the sake of the animals.

“I must admit that my initial reaction was not entirely positive,” Baker said.

“I had been approached by others in the past with great ideas, but that was

But my mood quickly changed when [McBride] said the magical words that any manager loves to hear ‘I will do all

the work’.”

McBride offered to organize the cans and “pound the pavement” to promote the cause.

“So, with nothing to lose, I agreed to his idea, shoot his hand, and

wished him the best of luck. And, as he left my office, I did not expect to see him again.”

One month later, he was back in Baker’s office with $500.

“I didn’t know what to say,” Baker said.

Since that first month, the dollar value gradually increased. He now hands in “eight crisp $100 bills” each month and is credited with raising more than $65,000 in spare change.

“That is truly outstanding,” Baker said, calling McBride “amazing.”

“Ken McBride, I would like to take this opportunity to publicly apologize for ever doubting you,” Baker said, presenting him with the new lifetime fundraiser award.

“It is a special award that is meant to honour a very special LAPS volunteer who has truly done something extraordinary.”

McBride shrugs off attention, saying he loves contributing. It takes him about six to eight hours a week to distributing and collecting the cans from 15 locations around town, as well as count and roll the coin.

“I sure wasn’t anticipating any award... I’d continued doing it, whether I get an award, or not,” he said, hoping to keep it up for another 20 years – at least.

It’s also his goal, McBride said, to raise a quarter million dollars “before I leave this earth.”

He’s “very appreciative” of the award, and said it has already been given a place of honour on his fireplace mantel, amid his family photos.

Cat idea unveiled The seventh annual LAPS gala, according to

Baker, was the “most successful” to date.

“Our net for the whole event, including the raffle, is approximately $105,000,” he said. “This is a new record for us.”

The money is earmarked for a new, free-standing building dedicated solely to the care of sick cats requiring isolation.

The cat “ISO oasis,” as it has been dubbed, will cost upwards of $400,000 and given the money raised directly from gala tickets, auctions, and 50/50, Baker said Monday that LAPS appears to already be a third of the way there – maybe more, he said.

On Saturday night, a number of individuals and business owners on hand also pledged money to help build the new centre.

That money had not been calculated into the fundraiser total, but Baker estimated it could be another $50,000, at least.

Two years ago, LAPS introduced the concept of a new building on the Aldergrove site that could help cats, but Baker didn’t know exactly what that should look like at the time.

Volunteer Ken McBride collects refundable drink containers and donates the funds to the Langley Animal Protection Society. Over the years that has added up to more than $65,000. He has also volunteered for other duties with the animal welfare group.

After what he summarized as hundreds of cases of ringworm, multiple cases of caliche virus, and countless cases of upper respiratory infections and other afflictions, the need has become crystal clear,” he said. “We need a building to help the lost, free-living and feral cats in Langley. Specifically we need a building to care for the sick ones… it’s going to be fantastic.”

“I was really encouraged by the positive response to the cat ISO Oasis introduction,” Baker said Monday.

“I believe that we will be able to meet our goal of building it within a year.”

Businesses appear to be going to the dogs Honestly, I’ll take any opportunity I can to talk about dogs – whether they’re mine or not. Did I ever tell you I have a Jack Russell terrorist and a yellow lab the size of a small pony?

As always, I digress. Like my Jack Russell, I’m easily distracted. Just say the word squirrel to her, and she forgets everything else in the world – including food – exists. Obviously it’s contagious.

But back to the point of this week’s column, I get to tell you about two different endeavours involving the local business community and animals.

Okay, the first animals is only a mascot. But that’s good enough for me, and it was an event at one of my favourite public farms where kids get to frolic with – and some for the first time ever – pets and other domestic livestock.

Okay, maybe a poor segue, but what the hay (yes, I meant hay, not hey as a play on words). Okay that squirrel is wreaking havoc on my thought process today.

Topic at hand, a cool day Roxanne Hooper out at Aldor Acres pumpkin rhooper@langleyadvance.com patch.

It was the fifth annual event hosted by the BC Professional Firefighters Burn Fund and the Township of Langley firefighters, and it was an event exclusively for children and adult burn survivors – plus their families. About 150 were in attendance, and this entire event – which (yes, I’m finally tying back to the dog angle) included the presence of Sparky the Fire Dog, tours of the fire truck, hot dog lunch, hayrides, playing in the petting zoo, and overall fun on the farm.

This whole day was made possible, in large part, by Envision Financial.

Cool way for a number of local businesses to create a special day for burn victims. Kudos.

Dean the dog – a puppy up for adoption at the Patti Dale Animal Shelter in Aldergrove – and representatives from Langley Animal Protection Society were elated to accept a recent cheque from Nufloors for $1,500.

Nufloor aids animals

Now I want to actually talk about real dogs, and even some of their furry feline friends, and how another local business is coming to their aid.

Dennis Lundstrom, the retail manager at Nufloors Langley, told me how his company virtually stumbled into a relationship with the Langley Animal Protection Society, that recently resulted in the presentation of a $1,500 cheque to a Labrador-cross named Dean and the team at the local animal shelter.

About a year ago now, Lundstrom was casting about trying to find a way to help test and subsequently promote a new type of pet-resistant carpet brought out by one of their suppliers – Stainmaster.

Nufloors reached out to LAPS and asked to carpet one of the main cat ages with the carpet. Over the course of a month, 13 kittens and two adults cats did all they could to destroy said carpet, but the product prevailed.

More important, that little experiment fostered an ongoing relationship between a business and non-profit.

Fast forward a year, and Nufloors hosted a one-day pet adoption event at their store that helped find some homes for adorable and adoptable cats and dogs.

Also during that month, for every square foot of the pet protected carpet sold, Nufloors donated a portion of the money back to LAPS. “A huge thank you to our friends at Nufloors Langley , for not only hosting a fabulous adoption event, but also for fundraising for the entire month of September,” said LAPS’ Jayne Nelson.

Poppies have personal allure A Brookswood artist finds poppies connect aspects of her life.

by Heather Colpitts hcolpitts@langleyadvance.com

A Langley artist has found inspiration in the paperlike flowers that have become a symbol of remembrance for Canada’s military veterans.

Julie Bourne has been creating raku pottery poppies, each one putting her in a contempletive mood as Remembrance Day approaches.

“I was doing these for a show for FLAG [the Fort Langley Artists Group] on poppies and sunflowers,” she explained.

Her mother died while she was making her pieces

and she wrote a personal note on the back of one of her clay sculptures.

Then she started adding special notes on the back of each and found it’s been healing for her.

Also in the back of her mind was the 100th anniversary of the start of the First World War. “My mom’s father apparently lied to be in both world wars,” she said.

First, he said he was older than he was, to fight in WWI, and then lied about how young he was, to fight in WWII. He died one month before she was born but cast a shadow over her and now her art.

Bourne grows poppies in her garden and had wanted to do something in her art with the big, billowy red beauties.

She’s now made about 50, in red and white.

Bourne is hoping to connect with local Royal Canadian Legion branches to display them and have them available to the public in red and white.

She can be contacted at juliegym@telus.net or call 604-356-6994.

She’s also holding a show at her studio, 4300 200th St. on Nov. 22, 23, 29 and 30 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.

In 1998, she undertook a handbuilding clay course at Kwantlen College and has been creating pieces since.

There will be raku works of various subjects, glass items and clay pieces.

“And we will be giving demos on how I make my glass beads,” Bourne added.

More than 55,500 British Columbians answered the Empire’s call to serve in the First World War. At the time B.C. was a fledging province of only 400,000, so its personnel contribution and the 6,225 who died, were significant sacrifices that had farreaching implications.

Their book also marks the 100th anniversary of the start of the Great War. They realized that many people around the province may be on the same quest for family connection and they put out the call for submissions.

Compiling stories, artifacts and photos sent in by BC Almanac listeners from across the province, From the West Coast to the Western Front tells of submarine smuggling, bagpipes lost on the battlefield and of the ongoing struggles by soldiers who made it

home.

Their book tells of battles that set records for mass death amid conditions of unequalled squalor, but also of the heroism of front-line nurses and soldiers like George Maclean, a First

Medal.

There’s tales of nurses who worked at the front, of Japanese-Canadians who faced racism but still signed up to fight, or of Ukrainians who were interned in one of 24 camps (they were responsible for creating much of the infrastructure of Banff National Park and other infrastructure in Canada).

The Langley Players performance of Cocktails at Pam’s has been held over to Nov. 23. Tickets are still available for the Nov. 21, 22, and 23 shows.

Willoughby’s Cole Armour just released his self-written album.

Music

Armour launches

Langley’s own Cole Armour is hitting all the high notes with his music these days.

Armour recently finished a show at the 15th annual Rockin’ for Research gala benefitting the diabetes organization JDRF at the Hyatt Regency in Vancouver.

“Cole has a very close friend with Type 1 diabetes,” his dad Ron Armour said.

The singer’s new selfwritten EP and new website just launched as well, so it is a busy time for Armour.

Pam’s party keeps going A Langley Players performance about a cocktail party that the hostess can’t control is held over.

All good things must come to an end – or do they? With the Langley Players’ performance of Cocktails at Pam’s selling out in record time, the play company added the additional dates of Nov. 21, 22, and 23.

Diane Gendron with the Langley Players noted, “It’s been fun sharing this comedy with our audiences and hearing all their laughter.”

The quirky comedy is written by Edmonton playwright Stewart Lemoine and takes a lighter look at cocktail parties in the 1960s.

The house party, hosted by Pam

(played by Langley resident Joy Cinnamon) is filled with a desire for the perfect party made up of some very imperfect guests.

There are 11 characters in the performance which gives audiences the ability to explore the lives of a number of individuals while laughing at their antics.

Director Dave Williams is also from Langley and thought the script was ideal for local audiences.

“The mid-century decor, designed by our award-winning team, fits a time period that many of our patrons can relate to – 1965 – a time of change,” Williams noted.

Cocktails at Pam’s runs Thursdays to Sundays at the Langley Playhouse at 4307 200th St. Tickets are $15 through 604-534-7469 or reservations@langleyplayers.com.

The women behind Morning Joy Studio and White Magpie Studio are holding an art show on Nov. 9.

Teresa Tetar and Helen Wells are the respective studio owners.

The show will be at Morning Joy, located at 24498 54th Ave. (access from 248th Street). The show hours are 2-5 p.m.

The show will feature Tetar’s oil paintings and Wells acrylic works. This is the first art show for both.

Tetar will be showing her expressionistic abstract and realist paintings of various sizes. She takes inspiration from her garden as well as doing scenics and still lifes. Wells relies on the world around her for her subjects.

“I’ve got a real love of nature,” she said.

Her works includes scenics, and often animals. “I love the old broken down barns,” she said.

And recently she’s been inspired to create western-themed art.

Church and gender

Trinity Western University’s Gender Studies Institute hosts an expert on faith and sexuality next Thursday.

The author of Generous Spaciousness: Responding to Gay Christians in the Church, Wendy VanderWal-Gritter, will share her perspective at the upcoming Gender Café, sponsored by Trinity Western University’s Gender Studies Institute, on Nov. 13.

The exectutive director of New Direction Ministries, Gritter is an internationally recognized contributor to the conversations at the intersection of faith and sexuality.

“This is an opportunity to be part of a conversation,” said Professor of History and Gender Studies Institute co-director Robynne Healey, Ph.D. “The work of missional scholars, such as Gritter, is part of an ongoing dialogue in the church universal about gender and sexual orientation. Rather than dictating a position that all Christians must adopt, Gritter’s work and ministry invites us to participate in a conversation where there is space for dialogue and uncertainty.”

Through research and teaching, the scholars of the Gender Studies Institute have been participating in these kinds of conversations. Events such as these provide an opportunity for the larger community, including local churches, to be part of this dialogue on a critical issue facing the church today.

The Gender Café runs 7-8:30 p.m. in the Northwest Building auditorium.

Admission is free.

Justice gala

For 25 years the Langley-based Community Justice Initiatives has provided restorative justice programs, including 14 years in the Langley School District.

The doors open at 6 p.m. with dinner at 7 p.m.

Tickets can be purchased online at www.cjibc.org for $30 each or a table of eight for $225. For more information, or tickets, contact mail@cjibc.org or 604534-5515.

Second World War

Langley vet looks back on war service

Bud Freeston joined the army to provide for his family. He would serve for five years from North Africa to Europe.

“And we’d feel a bump, as these explosions went off.”

Bud Freeston

by Matthew Claxton

mclaxton@langleyadvance.com

Bud Freeston’s war ended in northern Germany, just short of the North Sea city of Wilhelmshaven.

“Thank God,” was his thought when he heard Germany had surrendered.

“Thank God we survived.”

Freeston, a 94-year-old Langley resident and member of Aldergrove’s Royal Canadian Legion, started his journey to Europe from a tiny town in Saskatchewan. He would travel across the Atlantic several times, through England and Scotland, North Africa, Juno Beach in Normandy, and through Belgium and Holland.

By the war’s end he had survived a serious wound that almost cost him his leg, met the woman he would marry, and lost many of his friends.

Freeston was born in 1920 in the small town of Saltcoats, where his father was a section man for the CPR. The family moved frequently, from Saskatchewan to Alberta and back, always working for the railroad. He spent much of his childhood in the small northern Saskatchewan town of Neilburg, playing hockey, baseball, and softball, and even joining the Battleford Beavers junior hockey team for a few games in 1935.

He worked hard as a young man, stooking and pitching wheat for farmers, or digging pits for duck hunters in the autumn.

“I got a dollar a pit,” Freeston remembered. “In those days, that was a lot of money.”

Freeston had two brothers

This wartime photo captures Freeston (right) as a captain in the Black Watch and with a couple of other soldiers behind the lines. The photo was taken to encourage the sale of war bonds.

Matthew Claxton/Langley Advance

Bud Freeston met his wife Dorothy when he was training in Victoria during the war. They married two days after he arrived back in Canada. and three sisters who survived infancy, and money was tight.

“My father died when I was 18,” Freeston said. After that, he was helping to support his mother and siblings.

At the age of 18, Freestone was slinging beer in a small town hotel – the local Mountie was ignoring the fact that he was underage – and making $15 a month.

LEST WE FORGET

“Fifteen dollars a month didn’t quite make it,” he said. His mother was cleaning houses, and he needed to make more money.

“I thought to hell with this, I’ve got to do better than this,” he said.

In June of 1940, he decided to join the Saskatchewan Light Infantry.

After basic training, Freeston

was sent to England, one of the lucky soldiers who travelled on the Empress of Australia, a luxury steamship that had been pressed into use as a troop transport.

“When we went aboard, they had not converted it for wartime,” Freeston remembered.

Stewards were still working on the ship, and the soldiers from Canada sat down to eat at tables with tablecloths.

The only thing slightly unnerving was the fact that destroyers with the convoy would drop depth charges at suspected Nazi submarines.

“And we’d feel a bump, as these explosions went off,”

We will never forget.

Freeston said.

In England, Freeston began almost two years of training, and began to accumulate a series of promotions. From an enlisted man he rose to become a corporal, then a sergeant, then was recommended for a commission.

In the fall of 1942, he was sent for officer’s training in the south of England.

In the middle of the training, Freeston was suddenly told he had new orders. He was headed to the Scottish Highlands, where he was met by a sergeant.

“He said, ‘You’re going to take 2,500 prisoners of war to Canada,” Freeston said.

After some training, Freeston and 39 other NCOs escorted their POWs onto the RMS Andes, a converted mail carrier, and watched over the Germans during a quiet voyage across the Atlantic with a boat full of enemies captured in battle.

In Canada he was allowed to pick up his training again, first in Victoria – where he met and spent time with a young woman named Dorothy – and then in Shilo, Manitoba.

In between, he managed to get 10 days leave to see his mother and siblings. It was the first time in more than three years he had seen them. His little sister had grown tremendously.

“It was a brand new experience,” Freeston said.

Freeston headed back to England, and from there he followed his division to North Africa, east of Algiers. It was there that he almost lost his life to a training accident.

He was working with mortar crews, firing into the Atlantic.

“One of them exploded,” Freeston said.

• Part Two of Bud Freeston’s story will be in the Nov. 11 edition of the Langley Advance.

Cloverdale

Ceremonies begin at the cenotaph in Museum Square at 17710 56A Ave. at 10:15 a.m.

There will be two minutes silence at 11 a.m., and following the service, the Legion’s Colour Party will lead the parade back to the branch.

Pilot Officer George “Bud” Goodwin RCAF

Born 1924 Creston BC, KIA 1943 at age 19.

Killed in action August 11, 1943 as Co-Pilot on a mission against a German U-Boat off the coast of Gambia where the Pilot, Lloyd Trigg of the RNZAF was awarded the Victoria Cross posthumously. They found the u-boat on the surface and bore down to attack. The Liberator aircraft was hit several times. Despite the flames and shell bursts, Trigg executed a masterly attack.

With enemy projectiles streaming into the Liberator’s open bomb-doors, they skimmed over the U-Boat at 40 feet and released their bombs accurately which sank the submarine. Immediately afterwards their blazing aircraft crashed into the sea killing all eight crew. Hours later a rescue aircraft spotted a rubber dinghy with men. It was the Liberators’ dinghy but the men in it were survivors of the sunken u-boat. Their eye witness testimony formed the basis for the citation of Pilot Lloyd Trigg’s Victoria Cross.

Along with the staff at Ears Hearing Langley I would like to take this opportunity to remember and honour those Canadians killed and wounded serving Canada. War is unfortunately a reality in our lives today. Let us never forget the sacrifices others have made for both you and I. Remembrance Day is not only about remembering those who have fallen but it is a time to say THANK YOU to all those who have served and are still serving today. I pray for the day that this world will have true freedom and peace. Until then continue to acknowledge and honour Remembrance Day so that the survivors and casualties will never be forgotten. — Kim Galick, Owner, Ears Hearing Langley

The day after Cpl. Nathan Cirillo was shot while standing on guard at the National War Memorial in Ottawa, Glacier Media, which owns this newspaper, started a crowdfunding campaign for his son’s trust fund.

Thanks to donations from our readers, the campaign has almost reached $6,000. This outpouring of support is a testament to how deeply his death has touched us all.

To all who have donated, a heartfelt thank you.

To those who would like to contribute, the campaign will remain open until November 11.

Eleven years ago, Matthew dreaded halls like this because of bullies.

TODAY, MATTHEW WALKED DOWN THE HALL.

It’s easy to take for granted the ordinary things in our lives. But for many children, something as ordinary as feeling safe at school is impossible.

You can make it possible.

Questions & Answers

Chard reddened by heat

Dear Anne, “When I pruned hydrangeas I stuck several stalks with healthy buds into pots.

The four lace ones grew enormous this summer, but not a bloom on one. The one mophead grew very modestly but produced a huge white bloom. Can you give me a tip on being more successful?”

Beryl Wilson, Vancouver he fact the lacecap hydrangeas grew very large indicates they were concentrating on vegetative growth. Did you put them in very rich soil or soil with high-nitrogen fertilizer?

Nitrogen stimulates leaf and stem growth, but not flowers. In fact, such fertilizer can reduce bloom even in shrubs that have bloomed quite well in the past.

Nitrogen is the first number listed on soil enhancers.

Light may be another issue. Hydrangeas like very bright light, but not direct sun. Also, some hydrangeas tend to hold back flowers until they are closer to their maximum height.

If the soil you gave yours

T

is very rich, you could repot them in less fertile soil, but add a little bonemeal.

Dear Anne, “Is it still alright to eat my chard that has turned dark red? These leaves were green this summer. Will it be bitter?

Why did it turn red? Should I just pull them all for this year, or just cut the tops off, leaving the roots?”

Koko, Coquitlam he heat and perhaps drought associated with heat has turned your chard red. Also, it’s quite old at this point and chard doesn’t improve with age. It could be bitter, possibly even too bitter to eat.

Even if you have to leave your chard unpicked in summer because you have so many other vegetables, it can be good to pick the older leaves anyway. That keeps young, sweet, tender leaves coming.

You could take a cautious nibble of your chard and see for yourself if it’s edible.

But it’s likely best to cut the tops right away.

Do leave the roots – there may be some good chard-

Alternate leavening

Thursday, November 6, 2014

Quick breads named for their convenience

S

ome of the simplest baking products to make are quick breads.

As the name implies, they can be made more quickly than traditional yeast breads.

The biggest and most obvious difference between yeast breads and quick breads is that quick breads are not leavened with yeast.

“Leavening” is the creation and capture of gases in a baked product, for structure and height. As yeast ferments sugar, it creates gas that causes the holes in bread.

Quick breads rely on leaveners such as baking soda, baking powder, steam, eggs, and air to give a similar effect.

Baking soda and baking powder are chemical leaveners. Baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) requires liquid and an acid to make a gaseous reaction. It is usually added to recipes with naturally occurring acid, such as vinegars, buttermilk, yogurt, sour cream, honey, molasses, fruits, and even chocolate, in the ingredients. The amount of baking soda used is determined and balanced by the amount of acid in the recipe’s ingredients.

Baking powder, on the other hand, is a complete leavener. It only requires liquid for it to react, as it contains baking soda plus a balanced amount of acid, along with starch to help prevent lumping. That

is why some recipes call for only baking powder and others for baking powder and/or baking soda – for instance, recipes for pancakes compared buttermilk pancake.

Most quick bread recipes consist of mixing dry and wet ingredients in separate bowls before combining them.

Not only are quick breads fast, they are also very tender, due to the limited production of gluten in the mix.

When flour and liquid are mixed together, gluten is formed. Gluten is most recognizable as the elastic feeling in yeast bread dough that has been kneaded. The longer that flour and liquid are mixed, the

more gluten is created.

Quick breads are similar in texture to cakes, so don’t over-mix, to ensure

by Chef Dez a delicate composition.

Regardless of which chemical leaveners is used, the batter should go into the oven immediately once combined, as the gases start being produced as soon as the liquid is added.

When using eggs and air to leaven, bake immediately, before it deflates.

In the oven, heat converts moisture in the batter to steam, which gets trapped in the batter, giving the product height and a fluffy texture.

Rams seek redemption in national title game

by Troy Landreville

tlandreville@langleyadvance.com

A

s if the Langley Rams needed any more motivation when they play for the Canadian junior football championship on Saturday afternoon, all they need to do is look across the McLeod Stadium turf at who they’re playing.

They’ll once again see the Saskatoon Hilltops, who in 2012 erased a 15-point second half deficit to stun the Rams in the Canadian Bowl at McLeod.

On that chilly Saturday afternoon, the Hilltops scored 17 unanswered points during the second half to win 23-21.

Redemption will be on the minds of some of the Rams who played in that prestigious game two Novembers ago.

But aside from the vindication factor, winning a Canadian title on home soil takes precedence for Langley’s players and coaches.

Opening kickoff for the 107th edition of the Canadian Bowl is 1 p.m.

The Rams’ road to their second Canadian championship appearance in three years was a long and challenging one.

They finished 7-3 during the regular season to capture second place in the B.C. Football Conference (BCFC).

In one of two BCFC semifinals, the Rams hung on for a thrilling 48-46 victory over the Kamloops Broncos, then went on the road

to beat the Okanagan Sun 23-19 in the Cullen Cup championship, claiming their seventh BCFC title.

It was Langley’s first road win this season versus the Sun, who led the BCFC during the regular campaign with a 9-1 record (their lone loss coming to the Rams in Week 2), before blowing away the defending champion VI Raiders by a 47-16 count in the other semifinal. he Hilltops, meanwhile, finished 6-2 and claimed home field advantage throughout the Prairie Football Conference (PFC) playoffs.

In the PFC semifinal they flexed their muscles by clobbering the Winnipeg Rifles 43-13, setting the table to host the Calgary Colts in the final for the first time since 2011.

The Hilltops scored 24 points in the first half and beat the Colts 27-7 to punch their ticket to the Canadian Bowl.

The Rams are led by, among others, a pair of newcomers.

Quarterback Jordan McCarty took over the starting role at halftime in Week 7 after an injury.

In four-and-ahalf games, he completed 62 of 118 passes for 1,021 yards, to go along with 10 touchdown tosses and an efficiency rating of 89 per cent.

While this is his first taste of a game of this magnitude, McCarty said he isn’t nervous in the least.

“I’ve got a good supporting cast and it’ll work out for the best,” he said.

Regarding the Hilltops, McCarty said, “They’re a really good football team, they play great, fundamental football, and I expect them to bring their ‘A’ game, and we will, too.”

Beating the Sun in the BCFC championship game should give the Rams confidence heading into Saturday’s contest.

Okanagan won two of three meetings against Langley during the regular season.

“That one felt good just because we lost twice in a row up there [at the Sun’s

The TWU women will try to keep momentum going when they host Alberta this weekend (Nov. 7-8).

Meet Dr. Peter Methven, Medical Director of Residential Care at Langley Memorial Hospital, and learn about the urgent need to upgrade and renovate the four bathing suites in our Residential Care facilities.

For the first time since 1999, Trinity Western University’s women’s basketball team is 2-0 to start its season.

On Saturday, Spartans earned their second victory over Manitoba in as many nights, winning 62-61 at Investors Group Athletic Centre.

The Spartans had a 12-point lead, 6250, midway through the fourth quarter and then held off the Bisons just long enough to earn the win.

First-year Jessie Brown had a teamhigh 16 points for TWU while fellow first-year Tessa Ratzlaff and second-year Kayla Gordon added 14 points each.

Gordon and Luca Schmidt each had seven rebounds to pace TWU on the glass.

The last time TWU opened a season with back-to-back wins was in its first year in the CIS, in 1999-2000, when the Spartans beat Lethbridge 82-70 and 71-61 at home.

The Spartans will try for program history this weekend (Nov. 7-8) when they host Alberta at the Langley Events Centre.

Peewees topple previously unbeaten Giants An impressive effort on both sides of the ball versus Chilliwack gives the North Langley peewee Bears momentum heading into the playoffs.

The playoff-bound North Langley Bears peewee football team put a cap on their regular season by toppling a team of previously undefeated Giants.

The Giants capped their campaign this past Saturday at McLeod Stadium with a 22-12 victory over the no-longer-unbeaten Chilliwack Red Giants.

The win avenged the Bears’ Thanksgiving Day loss to those same Giants, as North Langley finished with a record of 6-3-1.

They will now face the Blue Giants in Chilliwack in the division semifinal.

The Bears took an early lead on the second play from scrimmage when Marcus Stang broke out to the left and sprinted 49 yards to the end zone.

Stang added a 30-yard touchdown run in the second quarter and a 13-yarder in the third as part of his 167 rushing yards rushing on the day.

Mathieu Gale ran for 70 yards, including three first downs on scoring drives.

Kicker Tyson Hoy split the uprights on two of his three pointafter attempts.

The North Langley defence came up big against the Giants’ league-leading offence.

On five occasions, the Bears forced a turnover on downs, and they also recovered three Chilliwack fumbles.

In the second quarter, a tackle

by Jacob Evans on third down ended one Chilliwack drive, and on North Langley’s next possession, Evans pounced on a loose ball in the backfield.

With the Bears leading 14-6, a bad snap on the Giants’ opening play of the second half was scooped up by Callum Middleton.

That gave the Bears the ball on the Chilliwack 52, and the resulting drive yielded eight points.

Key tackles by Brandon Folkerts and Jacob Deibert were part of a strong all-around North Langley defensive effort that contained the powerful Giants’ offence to their lowest point total of the season.

North Langley Bears receiver Andy Hanlen pulled away from a Coquitlam Charger defender en route to scoring one of his three touchdowns on the day in a convincing 45-23 North Langley victory on Saturday afternoon. The win completed a 10-0 regular season for North Langley’s bantam football team.

Blair Canning photo

Saturday afternoon to finish the season with a perfect 10-0 record.

Their first place showing means the Bears will have home field advantage for the playoffs.

The Chargers knew they had to shut down North Langley running back Zander Bailey to have any chance of victory.

This task proved too much for them as Bailey turned in another strong performance by chewing up more than 200 yards on the ground to go along with two touchdowns on the day.

What Coquitlam couldn’t anticipate was receiver Andy Hanlen scoring three touchdowns to seal a convincing North Langley victory.

Hanlen first connected with quarterback Jacob Stebbings on a 49-yard pass to open the scoring in the first quarter, and then went 75 yards on a pass thrown by Bailey off an option in the second quarter.

Hanlen ran for his final touchdown when he completely fooled the Chargers, taking a reverse 75 yards into the end zone.

On defence, the Bears proved opportunistic as they forced the Chargers into several turnovers.

Both Ryan Barthelson and Zander Bailey recovered fumbles while Barthelson had a crucial interception deep in Bears’ territory which he returned 32 yards.

Connor Hurley, Jake Evans, and

Pablo Wigwigan led the tenacious North Langley defence in tackles as they consistently thwarted Coquitlam’s efforts to move the football.

The Bears open the playoffs at home against the Mission Niners this Sunday.

– by Chris Hurley North Langley atom Bears The Bears closed out their regular season on a winning note, defeating the Chilliwack Blue Giants 24-6 on a foggy Saturday morning.

The Bears played their most consistent game of the season, putting up a major score in each of the four quarters of the game.

Eight Bears (Marco Kee, Keaghan Hurley, Owen Sieben, Evan Hoy, Taylor Bear, Troy Edwards, Kayden Bell, and Ty Gallinger) had rushing first downs on the game, with collective rushing yards among them totalling more than 175 yards.

The touchdowns were spread out between the players as well, with Sieben, Hurley, Bear, and Bell running in for major scores.

Bell had a great game on defense as well, with several big tackles and a fumble recovery.

Manny Fotiou kept the Giants in their backfield with four tackles resulting in 45 yards lost for the visitors.

Chilliwack’s only score came on a 60 yard kick return touchdown in the third quarter.

The Bears’ offensive line had a strong game, with big blocks by Alex Figgess, Joshua Hamelin, and Marco Kee. The Bears now head into the playoffs, hoping to knock out the first place Meadow Ridge Gold Knights on the road.

– by Julie Fennel North Langley jr. bantam Bears The Bears finished their season with a 7-0 victory against the Chilliwack Giants this past Saturday at McLeod Stadium.

It all came together for a team that included 11 new players, as they were able to control the ball the entire game.

The first quarter looked a bit shaky for the Bears as they had a couple of fumbles, sacks, and an incomplete pass.

But in the second quarter a huge defensive play was made by Nicholas Triemstra, who blocked a Giants’ pass, and another when Ben Pascoe sacked the Giants quarterback for a six-yard loss.

The highlight of the game came when Brandon Brynjolfson stretched up to intercept the ball and run 51 yards the other way for a touchdown.

Offensively the JB Bears brought their “A” game with a number of highlights, including quarterback Micheal Huggins throwing to Jesse Nielsen, who extended his entire body to catch the ball for a 12-yard gain.

Both Ethan Bernardin and Evan Rees found holes created by North Langley’s blockers, to carry the ball up the middle to gain yardage throughout the game.

Jude Wessel carried the ball and with help from Cadeyrn Bathelson blocking, was able to run for a huge gain.

Harrison reflects on cross country win

Joel Harrison was modest after winning the B.C. high school junior boys cross country race Saturday in Colwood.

The Walnut Grove Secondary School (WGSS) Grade 10 student took top spot in the junior boys event in impressive fashion, finishing the course in 17:45, well ahead of second-place runner Jack Stanley from Oak Bay, who crossed the finish line in 17:58.

In doing so, Harrison improved on his performance at the 2013 B.C. junior boys event, in which he finished second at Aldergrove Lake Park.

“I think this year, my team was much more in the running to win the championship, so I pushed myself as much as I could to help the team win it,” Harrison told the Langley Advance late Monday afternoon.

Harrison said his goal was to finish in the top three, but with so many strong runners, he added, “I was hoping to do my best and see what happens.”

When he crossed the finish line, Harrison said the dominating feeling was satisfaction.

“I felt like the whole year had been a success,” he said. “All my training finally came into play. It was such a good feeling.”

Harrison was part of a WGSS junior boys squad that topped B.C., and he was especially happy with that accomplishment.

The team included scoring runners Ford McMahon (seventh), Paul Buckingham (14th), and Jake Robertson (28th), as well as Will and Liam Riley.

“These are the guys I train with and spend so much time with, so to not only be successful individually, but be part of a [championship] team, it meant so much more.”
