Bateman steps down
LUCKY 13
Two-term council member leaves politics for position with Canadian Taxpayers Federation NATASHA JONES Times Reporter
Todd OLSZEWSKI/Baltimore Orioles
Langley’s Brett Lawrie made his major league debut with the Toronto Blue Jays over the weekend in Baltimore. The 21-year-old registered his first career hit, RBI and home run during the three-game series against the Orioles. See the full story on page 21.
Township Councillor Jordan Bateman is leaving politics to become the communications director of the Canadian Taxpayers Federation in B.C. His announcement means there will be at least one fresh face on council after the Nov. 19 municipal election. Bateman informed Mayor Rick Green, fellow councillors and staff early on Monday morning. Bateman attended his last open council meeting on July 25, and ends his political career on Aug. 15. He recently cancelled his membership in the BC Liberal Party, and ended his business association with his friend, Fort Langley-Aldergrove MLA Rich Coleman. The Canadian Taxpayers Federation, which is not affiliated with any political party, advocates lower taxes and smaller government and fighting government waste — “anything that affects the taxpayer’s wallet.” Bateman, 35, said that his new fulltime job will entail some travel, and while the CTF’s B.C. office is in Vancouver, he will carry out much of his work from his Willoughby home. He said that the CTF approached him several months ago. “At first I wasn’t ready to step out of public life,” Bateman said. After a while, “the timing was right and it felt like the right thing to do. There comes a point where you want to do the right thing for your family,” he said, adding that his new job has a kinder schedule and no elections every three years. Even though the CTF is non-political, there are parallels between his new job and the one he is relinquishing. Both involve meeting people, researching issues, and talking to the media about changes, all of which he relishes. He called Langley residents “really

good people who are full of ideas. They know what they want in the community and they are never afraid to tell you, and that is a blessing in politics.” Bateman’s resignation comes as the end of his second three-year term nears. “It has been an honour and privilege to serve my neighbours as a Township councillor for the past six years,” Bateman, adding that while he is excited for the new chapter in his life “I will definitely miss this aspect of community service.” In the last election, Bateman topped the polls by a wide margin, winning Walnut Grove, Willoughby, Murrayville, Fort Langley, and Jordan Brookswood, Bateman and finishing a close second in Aldergrove and Salmon River. He cited the Langley Events Centre, Willoughby Community Park, restoration of the Fort Langley waterfront, public safety improvements, chairing the local Olympic Torch events, hitting the threshold of one job for every Township citizen, and significant investments in Aldergrove infrastructure, as highlights of his time on council. “I leave council knowing that Langley is a better, safer, healthier place than when I was first elected,” said Bateman. “This community should be very proud of the way it has invested in its future, and I know the citizens of Langley appreciate sound, forwardthinking leadership as much as I do. This is a remarkable place to live, work, play, and raise a family.” With only seven council meetings left in this term, Bateman’s resignation will not spark a byelection.

Deportation won’t happen anytime soon No plans to return Langley father to El Salvador: MP NATASHA JONES Times Reporter
There are no plans at this time to remove Jose Figueroa from Canada, Langley’s Conservative MP Mark Warawa said on Wednesday. Figueroa has been fighting deportation to his native El Salvador for several years. The married father of three Canadian-born children was ordered deported to El Salvador for belonging to the left-wing Farabundo Martí National Liberation Front (FMLN), a group linked to violent acts against the regime that ruled the country during the civil war from 1980 to 1992. Figueroa lost his job earlier this year after he took his son on a two-month trip across the country to raise public awareness about his plight. “There are no plans at this time to have him removed as his case is being looked at and considered,” Warawa Mark commented at the MurrayWarawa ville fire hall where he had attended a meeting of community leaders with federal Justice Minister Rob Nicholson. “I think Mr. Figueroa will be in Canada for many years before a decision is made, and that is good for his family,” the MP said. Figueroa’s wife has not worked since 2002 when the couple’s son José Ivan was diagnosed with autism, and at one point the family had considered moving to Manitoba where there is not only a large Salvadoran community, but health care coverage for Jose Ivan. However, in a recent e-mail to The Times, Figueroa indicated that his family is still living in Langley. Figueroa had been told that it will be seven to nine years before there is a ruling on his application to the Ministry of Public Safety for “ministerial relief” that would allow him to remain in Canada. “Right now, our task is to survive this undeserved situation that has been imposed on our family, and continue doing whatever we can to inform the community.” Figueroa said in his e-mail.

One man was taken into custody without incident by police following a stand-off at a home near 209A Crescent and 210 Street on Wednesday afternoon (Aug. 3).
Standoff ends peacefully Wanted man faces charges following Walnut Grove incident DAN FERGUSON Times Reporter
A 90-minute police standoff ended peacefully in a quiet Langley neighbourhood late Wednesday afternoon. Police surrounded a house near 209A Crescent and 210 Street around 3:30 p.m. Residents of neighbouring houses were evacuated while a police officer with a loud hailer urged a person in the house to call police on the phone. “We’re not going away,” the officer said.
Introducing Dr. Jaimie Ackerman, BSc, DC, ART Chiropractor & provider of Active Release Technique
Around 4:52 p.m. a barefoot, broadshouldered man in a T-shirt and summer shorts walked outside with his hands in the air. He was ordered to the ground and handcuffed without incident. The man was taken away in a police cruiser. Langley RCMP said members of the Langley RCMP Street Enforcement Unit, Major Crime investigators, and General Duty officers along with the Lower Mainland Emergency Response Team (ERT) and Police Dog Services were executing an arrest warrant. A 33-year-old Langley man, Christopher Warren Nohr, was wanted for breaching his court ordered terms of release. Nohr was allowed to go free under certain conditions after he was charged with driving while prohibited, robbery, use of an imitation firearm and forcible
confinement in connection with a Maple Ridge incident that happened on March 23. Police allege Nohr was picked up by a cab driver in Langley around 5 a.m. After robbing the driver of his cash on hand, they say Nohr made the cabbie take him to Maple Ridge, where he forced the man to withdraw money from his own bank account and hand it over. That trial is currently set to begin in June of next year. An internet reverse directory search appears to show the house where the Wednesday standoff took place belongs to a Nohr relative. Nohr appeared in Surrey Provincial Court on Thursday (Aug. 4). His case was transferred to the Port Coquitlam courthouse for a bail hearing. — with files from Monisha Martins, Maple Ridge News

Langley woman does her part in women’s cancer awareness ASHLEIGH BEAUDOIN
Simone Malcolm holds newborn son Duncan, with daughter Daisy (right) in March. 2010.
Times Reporter
The battle against women’s cancers is an ongoing one, but many women are doing their part by taking part in the Shoppers Drug Mart Weekend to End Women’s Cancers. The events take place this weekend (Aug. 13 and 14). More than 1,000 women will be running or walking 30 km over one day, or 60 km over two days. The walk is not only about finding cures, but also about raising awareness about cancer and the many different ways it can affect the lives of daughters, mothers, sisters, wives and friends. Simone Malcolm, 37, was diagnosed with breast cancer in January of 2010, when she was six months pregnant with her third child. Two weeks after she was diagnosed, she had a mastectomy and a month later, her youngest son, Duncan, was born. Her diagnosis changed not only her life, but also the lives of her husband and young children. Because of her age and good health, doctors gave her a positive outlook, but she wanted to do something more than her personal fight with the disease. “Instead of feeling like I couldn’t do anything, I decided to do something to make it feel like I was fighting back,” Simone said. With a newborn and two young ones under three, Simone underwent eight rounds of chemotherapy and five weeks of daily radiation therapies. Her therapies left her exhausted and sick, and she couldn’t get out of bed some days. The support of family and

friends helped her a lot, she said. “One of the biggest gifts I’ve been given over the past year has been time from people. “People that I would never expect to know what was going on with me would show up at my door with food. There’s good people out there.” Now, on medical leave from her job as a French Immersion teacher at Alex Hope Elementary School in Langley, she is undergoing therapy as a result of a failed reconstructive surgery and another attempted surgery, which also failed. This won’t stop the mother of three from making her contribution to her pink sisters and helping spread the word about breast cancer and pregnancy. “You never hear about it unless it happens to someone near you, or yourself,” she said. After finding out about her own cancer, she was told that it was not uncommon for the excess hormones that develop in the body during pregnancy to cause cancer. Though it has been difficult for her to get out and train, Simone

tries to exercise when she can, taking walks with her family. Her kids, Daisy, 4, Dylan, 2, and Duncan, 1, are too young to completely understand what is going on, but she won’t let cancer stop her family from enjoying time together. “Enjoy the little things, because some day you’ll realize they’re the big things,” she said, words from a card she received, but ones that have stayed with her through this past year. “No matter how bad things seem, when you take it one day at a time, it’s manageable.” Simone is hoping to walk with a team this weekend and finish the 60 km route. A spokesman for the event said that many young women from Langley are taking part in the event this weekend. Simone’s website for the weekend event shows that she has raised a total of $1,155 thus far. She is hoping to raise $2,000 in time for the walk. To make a donation to Simone, or to join her team and walk with her in August, go to www.endcancer.ca/goto/simonemalcolm.

Brenda ANDERSON/Langley Times
Jamie Timmins wants the City to deal with the abandoned house next door to him, which he believes has become a potential health hazard.
‘Headache’ house causing problems Neighbour fears abandoned house is unsafe and could be health hazard BRENDA ANDERSON Times Reporter
An abandoned house on 208 Street in Langley City has created numerous headaches for Jamie Timmins during the three years he has lived next door to it. Regular calls to the City have resulted in the home’s overgrown grass being mowed, and complaints to the police have led to the removal of squatters who occasionally pull away graffiti-covered plywood sheets from windows and doors and take up residence inside (most recently last week) But now Timmins believes the empty building has also become a potential health hazard for his threeyear-old daughter and he’s ready to see the problem dealt with, once and for all. After the toddler proudly presented him with a dead mouse, clutched in her bare hand last Tuesday (Aug. 2) Timmins promptly fired off an e-mail to City Hall, asking
them to take action. “I am not sure what you think, but I am of the opinion that dead mice can not be safe/healthy for a threeyear-old child,” he wrote. His latest concern is that the mice will migrate into his home, leading to further health concerns and costly extermination bills. The house has been listed for sale at $349,000 for the last year, but Timmins would rather not wait for someone to buy the property and either fix the house or tear it down. “A friend of mine offered them $250,000 for it, but they just laughed,” said Timmins. A construction site supervisor by trade, Timmins believes the building itself might now be unsound. “The side wall looks like it is going to fall down. It is kicking or buckling quite a bit,” he wrote in his latest e-mail to City staff. “There are a couple of openings in the wall and going down into the crawl space of this house. My cat has got into the habit of going in this house and killing the mice.” At times when it is evident, he said, he has been worried about leaving his house unattended, even for a weekend, for fear he could be robbed. continued, PAGE 7

‘Tear it down or fix it up’ from PAGE 5
Langley RCMP confirm there are 65 police files related to the home, at 5410 208 St., dating back to 2007. “It’s an eyesore,” Timmins said. “It’s embarrassing when people come over. “Tear it down and throw some gravel down, and I’ll be happy.” Another area resident shares Timmins’ concerns, though for the man who has lived in his home for 27 years, the main issue is the abandoned building’s appearance. “It is an eyesore and it does attract street people,” he said. The man said police told him the inside of the home has been gutted by squatters, with pipes and fixtures torn out. “The last while it’s been quiet, but the City does have to get after

Canada not an island
Time to repeal wine law
A
ugust is sometimes seen as a “summer doldrums” period, but such has not been the case on world economic markets, with stock markets in free fall, commodity prices falling and the U.S. debt being downgraded for the first time in history. Canadians may feel that they are somewhat insulated from all these troubles. After all, our housing market has stayed strong, the banking system is sound, the Canadian dollar has been above par with the U.S. dollar for months and Canada has an enormous store of resources which the world needs. Canada does have many advantages, but it is far from insulated. As Finance Minister Jim Flaherty said on Friday, before Monday’s major selloffs, “Canada is not an island. We are a trading nation, with about a third of output generated by exports and deep linkages with the U.S. economy. The global economic recovery remains fragile and this uncertainty may eventually impact Canada.” The softness of the economy can be seen in many areas. High gas prices all this year have affected consumer spending. Governments at all levels continue to want more tax dollars (including more gas tax) from taxpayers, most of whom are making no more than they were three years ago. These and other factors have kept people from spending money the way they did in the mid-2000s. Money isn’t as easy to come by, and there is no sign that good times are coming anytime soon. There is no doubt that the economy is changing, and where it is going is pretty hard for anyone to predict. However, all of us are part of a global economy which has been hit by many challenges in recent years, from the U.S. subprime mortgage mess to European governments being unable to pay their debts. More of these types of unexpected occurrences will come along, and Canada will have to deal with the fallout as it affects businesses and individuals, and ultimately governments, in this country. All of it can be overwhelming, yet at the same time there is room for optimism. Canadians have weathered difficult times in the past, and Canadian attributes of hard work, caution and innovation can come to the forefront again. But that is no reason for Canadians not to proceed with a great deal of caution.

n 2013, the wine bloggers conference will be in the Okanagan. Wouldn’t it be nice if the attendees were able to ship some valley wines home to enjoy there? As it stands now, they would be committing a criminal act if they tried, thanks to a 1928 law restricting the shipment of wine across provincial borders unless it is purchased by or on behalf of a provincial liquor board. It’s often referred to as a prohibition-era statute, but in truth it comes from just after the alcohol prohibition laws were repealed in 1927. That’s when the government brought in the shipping regulations, along with a near 50-year moratorium on licences for new wineries, which was lifted in 1974. But the ban on shipping wines, or any alcohol, has lingered. The release of the moratorium means there are hundreds of small wineries, and online ordering makes it easy for them to bypass liquor boards and deal directly with their customers in other provinces. That is, if the regulations didn’t make that a criminal act. And politicians have been talking about changing the law for a couple of years now. Everyone seems to agree that it’s bad for business and puts the smaller operations at a huge competitive disadvantage. But governments move at a glacial pace. It’s really up to the people to show the government this is an important issue and we’ve only got two years left to make sure those wine bloggers can take home some samples of B.C. wines. After all, even if they are from Toronto, don’t they deserve a taste of B.C.’s finest wines too? —Penticton Western News (Black Press)

Fletcher’s smart meter jokes not appreciated Langley Times file photo
A worker at a Langley Township mushroom and composting farm reacts to news that some of his co-workers have been killed or badly injured in a 2008 industrial accident on the property.
Writer got a few things wrong about Council Editor: A letter from Ole Sorensen (The Times, Aug. 2) was factually incorrect and lacked much of the truth in the issues he presented. I feel it is necessary for the electorate to get the correct story. Firstly, there has been no move afoot to oust the mayor by any member of this council. Council has throughout this term maintained the dignity and word of the Community Charter to which we all must adhere and respect. Where this mayor has violated the Community Charter, council has by majority vote dealt with both him and the issue accordingly. To say councillors have ‘tried to oust their mayor’ is not the truth. Pay increases for council members are always a hot topic. Several years ago (before I was on council), the council of the day adopted a formula for pay increase that keeps any member of this council in step with others in the region and in communities of similar sizes. They are not overpaid in comparison. Contrary to what Sorensen claimed, the Township of Langley did in fact have a “Stop work order” posted on the mushroom barn operation throughout the unfolding scenario at the farm. Those orders were only applicable The
to those aspects of the farm buildings and operation which the Township had jurisdiction over. In this situation, the Township of Langley in fact had the least jurisdictional authority. Also having jurisdiction were the Ministry of Agriculture (Right to Farm legislation), Ministry of Environment, DFO, Work Safe B.C. and Metro Vancouver’s air quality branch. The federal and provincial ministries involved had much greater impact and clout. Whether one agrees with how they handled their authority is a discussion for a different day, but what I can state unequivocally is that issues of an inter-jurisdictional nature such as this and landfill farming are the most challenging to solve. For him to imply that it was the Township’s fault that three workers tragically lost their lives and two are in a vegetative state due to negligence is an absolute falsehood. The Township, including myself as a councillor, took this issue seriously and pressured the various agencies on an ongoing basis. In my case, I made a formal complaint to the Farm Industry Review Board. Councillor Charlie Fox Langley Township
Editor: Enough with the tinfoil hat jokes. Black Press legislative reporter Tom Fletcher (B.C. Views, The Times, Aug. 2) has now joined the ranks of other journalists who use sarcasm and damaging accusations to muddy the waters of understanding and awareness. In his column headlined “Greens lose credibility,” he dismisses the growing wealth of scientific research and information that strongly supports what people like Elizabeth May and Jane Sterk were brave enough to put forward in their press conference last week. To enter into a constructive conversation with a powerful conglomerate like Hydro and the provincial Liberals isn’t often attempted. To face ridicule when presenting a reasonable, balanced alternative view is a sad commentary on our media and on us as a society. Must we ignore any opinion or insight that doesn’t reinforce our own? If so, how will we gain or cultivate any kind of reasonable perspective? To date, in most newspapers there has been precious little balanced local information presented about smart meters. This in light of the fact that, if Hydro has its way, in spite of a growing outcry, these wireless meters, with all their drawbacks, will be mounted on every home and business in B.C. And most people here are still saying, “What’s a smart meter?” This is becoming a very real issue for those who care about their personal security, cost of living, safety, health, human rights and our children’s future. In attempting to discredit the WHO’s rating
of RF radiation as a possible 2B carcinogen by pointing to pickled vegetables, Fletcher embarrasses himself yet again. He conveniently fails to tell anyone that the 2B rating also places RF in the same category with lead, chloroform, DDT, diesel exhaust, dry cleaning chemicals and about 200 other possible carcinogens. Among them are, yes, pickled vegetables from China, where questionable chemicals are used in their manufacturing. There is much to learn. Deployment of a radiation-emitting device on every home and business in the province, without due diligence, public education or oversight, is alarming to say the least. B.C. Hydro executives have joined with big business, “green washing” their message, manipulating the public in ways that will have major human, environmental and societal costs. Please listen up, journalists who jump on bandwagons and write without knowing what you are writing about. Read the literature you are avoiding and discounting. Look more deeply at the gold standard, peerreviewed and published scientific studies and the highly qualified sources listed and showcased on the websites you haven’t bothered to search, and the books you haven’t time to read. Listen to brave voices. Visit www.citizensforsafetechnology. org. Research, and read intelligently, findings and insights unfamiliar to you, before putting your own ignorance on display. Linda Ewart White Rock
Ridiculing Green Party stance ‘sad’ Editor: I always look forward to reading Tom Fletcher’s B.C. Views column, because he supports his opinions with lots of evidence and usually bashes any and all sides of an issue with equal force. But even a good journalist is not perfect, and Fletcher just doesn’t get that there is a serious health and environmental discussion raging right now about the effects of the electromagnetic radiation from wireless technology, such as cellphones,
computers and now “smart meters.” That the World Health Organization recently recognized this radiation as a possible carcinogen was very significant. It is not on a par with “such volatile substances as pickled vegetables”. And to ridicule the national and provincial leaders of the Green Party for speaking out on the issue is not funny. It’s sad. Greg McIntyre Langley
Put overpass at Glover Rd. Editor: Forget the Mufford Overpass concept altogether. Where the overpass is needed is on the Langley Bypass, crossing over the rail tracks and Glover Road. The project would have to be shared by the Township and the City, as the land comes under both jurisdictions. If the two Langleys don’t want to become one, then they should show us they can work together like grownup governments, and support this project. John Winter Langley

‘Shaun would have been proud’ Event raises $106,000 for Canadian Cancer Society and Shaun G. Foundation
50%-80% Off OR Two for One
DAN FERGUSON Times Reporter
on any Designer or Regular Frames Grace and Ken Gauthier knew their late son Shaun was a popular young man with many friends, but they didn’t realize just how many until they attended a memorial fundraiser in his name. The July 9 “Forever Young” barbecue and beach party at Willoughby Park behind the Langley Events Centre drew 1,200 people and raised $106,000 for the Canadian Cancer Society and the Shaun G. Foundation. The foundation was set up to honour the memory of the 24-year-old Shaun, an avid athlete and accomplished martial artist who died last year, two weeks after he was diagnosed with a rare and aggressive form of cancer. His parents and other family members attended the event to show support and help sell SKG and SG T-shirts and hats (His full name was Shaun Kenneth Gauthier). “It was quite an amazing event,” mother Grace Gauthier said. “Sean would have been proud.” She brought a signing book with her and it was quickly filled. Here are some of the comments: • Shaun, you’ve inspired so many people to fight on and find a cure. — Much Love, Jazz Sandhu • Shaun miss you pal. I remember when we were head 2 head for the DOPO Job. The right guy got it! Enjoy the show, it’s all for you Brother! — Zach Whitman • Love Ya Bro, you helped inspire this.

A simple, early detection method is coming to the world of skin cancer. A definitive diagnosis of skin cancer is usually determined by a biopsy. Research is going on with new technology that uses a light ray to scan the moles and lesions. The ray looks for various biomarkers that can indicate a malignancy very quickly. It may be used to detect other types of cancers as well.

One of the biggest motivators to getting serious about heart health is having a heart attack. Health educators are continuously trying to get people to be proactive and make lifestyle changes before a heart problem occurs and perhaps even prevent it from occuring. Seven out of ten Canadians polled said that getting a heart disease diagnosis was a “wakeup call” to take better care of themselves. Wouldn’t it be great to do that before that diagnosis? Part of being proactive is to know your numbers: blood pressure, cholesterol levels, your ideal weight and what you can do to change these numbers. Our pharmacists are a great resource on matters pertaining to your better health. Use their expertise to help you be proactive in your life before a life-changing diagnosis comes your way.

ending in April of 2010. There were multiple counts laid against him for every month during that period, all occurring in Langley. Eight were for assault, four were for assault with a weapon, Shawn two for McWilliams pointing a firearm, one was for uttering threats, one for unlawful confinement and one was a charge of committing a sexual act that is only a crime when the other person does not consent or is underage. He was also charged with three counts of violating undertakings to the court. When the 40-year-old McWilliams failed to appear in Surrey Provincial Court in February of this year to set a date for his trial, the judge issued a warrant for his arrest. It now appears the
fugitive may have fled to Calgary, Alberta. On Thursday (Aug. 4), the Southern Alberta Integrated Fugitive Apprehension unit issued a call for public assistance in locating McWilliams. The written statement said the B.C. man is believed to be in the Calgary area, possibly working as a labourer. He is also wanted in Calgary for assault, criminal harassment and numerous breaches. McWilliams was considered armed and dangerous and should not be approached, police said. He is described as a 5’11� 215 lb. Caucasian with green eyes and brown hair. Police said he may be driving a white 2010 Ford F-150 truck with the Alberta licence plate BBR 7366. Anyone who has information about McWilliams is asked to call police in Alberta at 403-266-1234 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-2228477.

An inflatable jousting pit was one of the attractions at Aldergrove Neighbourhood Services’ annual youth barbecue, held in Douglas Park on Thursday afternoon.
Fun in the sun with ANS Agency hosts barbecue in park for at-risk youth Bright sunshine, free food and a chance to dunk an RCMP officer in a giant tank of water — what kid could resist? On Thursday afternoon, Aldergrove Neighbourhood Services Society (which merged with Langley’s Family and Youth Services Society on July 1) held its third annual youth barbecue in Douglas Park. Grilled burgers and hotdogs were on the menu, along with some fun and games and some information about Langley’s support network for at-risk youth. Drug and alcohol counsellors, police officers and representatives from Aboriginal services, ANS and the Ministry of Children and Family Development were on hand in the park to chat with Langley youth. But the annual picnic is mainly about having fun. “It’s a carefree event. They can come in and have some food and
engage with other community members,” said Sharon Dhillon, a family and youth worker with ANS. “The ones that are targeted are the more at-risk and street-entrenched youth.” Throughout the afternoon, children and teens were invited to test their own aim at a target on the dunk tank, where Mounties and ANS workers sat perched above gallons of water, waiting to drop at the first hit. An inflated jousting pit, where combatants bashed one another with giant padded batons, children’s art stations and music rounded out the entertainment. “It’s a fun way for (youth) to engage with us and build relationships, in case at any point in their lives they do need some help and support, they’ll feel confident approaching us,” said Dhillon.

Rockin’ on the BCCMA’s female vocalist of the year to perform at Mission country music festival
T
he Lower Mainland’s biggest country and western music event of 2011 is just days away. The Rockin’ River Music Festival, which takes place Aug. 12-13 at Mission Raceway Park (32670 Dyke Rd., Mission), features headline acts Travis Tritt, Sawyer Brown, Lonestar and Julian Austin along with some of B.C.’s best country talent, including Langley’s Emily Taylor Adams — B.C. Country Music female vocalist of the year. “This year’s show is chalk full of great performers,” says show organizer and performer Kenny Hess. “Anyone who went to the show last year will be even more impressed with the lineup and the overall show. It’s going to be a big-time fun weekend.” The two-day country shindig starts with recording artists Sawyer Brown, Lonestar, Rick Tippe (of Maple Ridge)
and B.C. Country Music Male Vocalist of the Year Chad Brownlee (of Kelowna) performing Friday, Aug. 12. Tritt, Austin, Hess (of Abbotsford), Brent Lee (Squamish) and Adams perform Saturday, Aug. 13. Also performing through the two days are Snake Oil Band featuring Ken McCoy (Mission), Fera (Vancouver), Jetty Road (Australia,), Merv Tremblay (Mission), and Steel Toed Boots (North Vancouver). “We’re really pleased with the lineup for this year’s festival,” says Hess. “These acts are some of country’s best stage performers and they will not disappoint this summer.” This year Rockin’River Music Festival supports Variety: The Children’s Charity and ticket buyers can, too. Rockin’ River will donate $10 from ticket sales to support the charity when ticket buyers click on the coupon icon and type in the code “VC2011.” Rockin’ River Music Festival tickets and information are available at rockinriver.com. Check out rockinriver.com, facebook.com/rockinriver, email info@ rockinriver.com or call the Rockin’ River Hotline at 604-733-2235.

The gift of music A single act of charity has the potential to benefit an entire community. When Emil Lee and his family were the highest bidders at a charity auction for a live concert, the children at their local public library were the audience they had in mind. So it was that Murrayville Library became the beneficiary of the Lee family’s generosity. Longtime users of the library, the Lee family wanted to give something back to the public library. Singer Charlie Hope, a popular children’s musician and a Juno Award nominee, will be playing songs for the very young from her album I’m Me! after the Lees bid on the performance and then donated to the library. Hope was nominated for a Juno award in the Children’s Album of the Year category. Her new album features singable songs such as Cowboy Boots, Train Song, Pop Goes the Weasel, Roll Over, Every Little Star, and other favourites. In addition to the Juno Award nomination, her album earned a Parents’ Choice Awards Silver Honor, a Preferred Choice from Creative Child Magazine and Favorite Kids’ Album Award from Boston Children’s Music. Everyone is welcome to attend this special concert on Wednesday, Aug. 17 at 4 p.m. The Murrayville Library is located at 22071 48 Ave. Phone the library at 604-5330339 to reserve a seat.

Going (Oscar) Wilde at the winery Township 7 Vineyards and Winery and Twisted Tree Theatre/Bare Bones Production have joined forces for a second year to produce one of Oscar Wilde’s most enduringly popular plays, An Ideal Husband. Performances run until mid August. Set in Victorian England, the comedy centres around sex, blackmail and political corruption. It is a brilliant mix of farce and morality, infused with pithy witticisms, satirizing the conventions and social hypocrisy of the time.
This is the second year that Twisted Tree has performed at Township 7’s Okanagan vineyard and the first at the Langley winery, 21152 16 Ave., where performances will be held on Aug. 12 and 13. Open seating begins at 6 p.m., with the play starting at 7 p.m. Al fresco picnics and wines by the glass will be available for purchase. Wilde at the Winery tickets are available through Twisted Tree Theatre Company at 604-803-1166, jen@twistedtreetheatre. com or Township 7’s Langley location, 604-
532-1766 or wine@township7.com. “Wine and the arts are truly a perfect pairing. We’re proud to support the marriage of the two with one of our own winery employees, Jen Viens, and her up-andcoming Twisted Tree theatre company,” said Mike Raffan, owner of Township 7. “We encourage theatre enthusiasts from across the Pacific Northwest to join us at our two wineries and be entertained by one of Oscar Wilde’s outstandingly funny plays, with biting political satire that is as
Preschool
&
relevant today as it was in over a century ago,” he added. Twisted Tree Theatre company’s staff focus on producing high-quality, entertaining and accessible live theatre, drama programming and instruction, and community support to foundations and organizations with a focus on children and the arts. Tickets are $20 with partial proceeds to be donated to Blacklock Fine Arts School in Langley and the Rotary Okanagan International Children’s Festival.

Food Allergies 1. Do you have low energy? 2. Are you suffering from chronic sinus infections or respiratory illnesses? 3. Does someone in your family have eczema or a skin rash that never really disappears? 4. Do you feel bloated, gassy or even feel sleepy soon after eating a meal?
These may be symptoms of food allergies. The 5 most common allergenic foods are: Dairy (milk & cheese), Soy, Egg, Wheat, and Tomato. Upon ingestion of allergen, it causes inflammation in the gut which leads to “leaky gut syndrome”. Without the defense of a proper intestinal lining, we have no protection against food allergens. Free flowing allergens in the bloodstream weaken our immune system producing excessive mucous leading to chronic sinusitis. The compromised intestinal tract becomes less effective, producing symptoms of bloating, gas and fatigue; and the toxic buildup places a burden on our liver and skin leading to eczema. Our doctors at Revive Naturopathic Health Clinic use the most advanced laboratory test to screen your blood against 95+ different foods. We will place you on a health program to prevent and heal your symptoms of food allergies. Our naturopathic physicians are also experts in cardiovascular disease, detoxification, weight loss, hormonal issues and sleep disorders.

Brett Lawrie fields a ground ball during the Toronto Blue Jays three game series at Camden Yards against the Baltimore Orioles over the weekend.The 21-yearold Langley native was making his Major League debut and did not disappoint, registering his first hit, RBI and home run as well as hitting safely in all three games. Alex Anthopoulos also believes the club has done everything it could to prepare his young third baseman for the next step. “We try to put these players in the best position to have success when they come up here,” Anthopoulos said. “You know you’re not going to be 100 percent sure. Like I always say, the likelihood, with all players, they’re likely going to have to go back down. But at least you want to do the best you can developmentally to prepare
them for being up here. “Hopefully now it’s one of those things with Brett where he can stay up here for the entire year.” Lawrie graduated from Brookswood Secondary in 2008 and he played in the Langley Blaze Premier program. He also represented Canada at the 2008 Olympics in Beijing, as well as multiple times with the Canadian junior national team program.

Okanagan added another score when they recovered a fumble at the Rams five-yard line and scored a touchdown a few plays later for the final 33-23 score. The game was a defensive battle until the fourth quarter when the teams each scored 21 points. The Sun (2-0) will visit the Rams (0-2) at McLeod Park on Saturday (Aug. 13) with a 7 p.m. kick-off.
