City making plans for new Timms Centre

CAPTAIN TO CAPTAIN

BRENDA ANDERSON Times Reporter

Miranda GATHERCOLE/Langley Times

Matt Leveque, captain of the Langley Thunder senior A lacrosse team, has his shirt signed by past Vancouver Canuck great Trevor Linden. Linden met with many adoring fans on Saturday for the grand opening of the new CIBC on 88 Avenue and 202 Street in Walnut Grove.

Plans are falling into place for the new Timms Centre. The City of Langley announced on Friday that beginning this December, the community recreation centre will temporarily relocate from its current home on Douglas Crescent, while the old building is demolished and a new 13,000 squarefoot facility is built. The City has signed a two-year lease agreement with Marcon Development Ltd. for the building at 20702 Eastleigh Cres., former home of the Langley Legion, most recently occupied by the nowdefunct Vancouver’s Ultimate Dance Club. The blueprints for the new Timms Centre currently call for a single-storey structure that will serve as a community hub, said Langley City CAO Francis Cheung. However, a call has gone out to various community groups, inviting them to occupy space in the building, and if there is enough demand designers will have to look at adding a second floor, he said. He expects to have a better sense by the end of the year of how many groups will be involved. Unlike a number of more elaborate centres that have been constructed in the Lower Mainland in recent years, said Cheung, this one “will be functional and modest.” continued, PAGE 4

Accused vet testifies in cruelty case Denies using ailing horse to try to tow car out of a ditch in 2008 DAN FERGUSON Times Reporter

Mark Marohn says he never hitched an ailing, underweight former racehorse to a car in order to tow it from a ditch. The soft-spoken Langley veterinarian testified at his trial in Surrey Provincial Court on Friday. “There’s no place to tie it to the car,” he said. “It was never tied to the car.” Marohn said the car ended up in the

Marohn and Schoyen-Marohn were each charged with two criminal charges, one of causing an animal to be in distress and one of failing to provide “necessaries” for an animal.

Injured boy airlifted to Children’s Hospital NATASHA JONES Times Reporter

Police have seized a pickup truck they believe struck two boys as they crossed 208 Street on a crosswalk on their way to school on Thursday morning. One boy was airlifted to B.C. Children’s Hospital with serious injuries, including a broken femur and head injuries. The vehicle, a Ford Ranger driven by a 50-year-old woman, will undergo mechanical inspection, said Cpl. Holly Marks of the Langley RCMP. One witness was a woman named Anne. She told The Times that she was driving west on 48 Avenue to go to H.D. Stafford Middle School. Travelling behind a school bus, Anne saw the three children, two boys and a girl, crossing 208 Street on the crosswalk when a pickup truck going east on 48 Avenue (by Langley Evangelical Free Church), turned left into their path as they were about half way across the crosswalk. The pickup “came around the corner and ploughed into them, and I saw the boy go flying,” Anne said. “It was horrible.” Thankfully, neither of Anne’s children traveling with her to Stafford saw the accident. A woman who had been driving the pickup jumped out and ran to

the stricken boy, Anne said. Between five and 10 people also ran to his side, she added. The boy who was hit was a 13-year-old student on his way to Stafford with his sister and a friend. The accident occurred at 8:22 a.m. and kept 208 Street closed for several hours. A witness told police that when the boys were crossing the street the ‘walk’ signal was in their favour. Langley City fire department Capt. Terry Alcombrack said it appears that the boy suffered a broken femur and head injuries. The lad was conscious and able to talk, Alcombrack added. Gary McCuaig, principal of H.D. Stafford Middle School, confirmed that the children were on the way to his school two blocks away on Grade Crescent. B.C. Ambulance paramedics who were the first to arrive at the scene tended to the injured boys, transporting the more seriously injured to an ambulance. The other boy, who Alcombrack said was thrown to his knees by the impact, was treated at the scene. At approximately 9:12 a.m., an air ambulance lifted off from the parking lot of the church with the boy and his mother on board. City firefighters had secured the parking lot, ensuring that there was no debris that could be hazardous from the helicopter’s intense downwash. They also cordoned off the

Marks said that it’s too soon to say if charges will be laid. Police are asking anyone who

Students traumatized after seeing classmate struck in crosswalk NATASHA JONES Times Reporter

Reports have emerged of just how much care a 13-year-old boy received after he was struck by a pickup as he walked to school on Thursday morning. However, many students who were on a school bus or being driven to school by their parents were traumatized by what they saw. A parent told The Times that the badly injured boy’s name is Demetri, who is in Grade 8.The other student is known as Tanner. Witnesses say that the driver of a pickup truck turned left from 48 Avenue onto northbound 208 Street, striking the boy, his sister, and a boy of about 11 as they were at the halfway mark of the crosswalk.

The ‘walk’ signal was in their favour, witnesses observed. Many people stopped their cars and phoned 911. One of the first on the scene was Township firefighter Scott Brewer. Sharon Merritt was driving her three children to school when she came upon the accident, saw Brewer jump out of his vehicle and race to the stricken boy’s side. “He bent over the child and rendered first aid,” Merritt said, adding that Brewer then called for his son to bring a coat to place over the boy, who suffered head injuries and a broken femur. Fifty minutes after the incident, a helicopter took off from the parking lot of Langley Evangelical Free Church, carrying the boy and his mother to B.C. Children’s Hospital.

Merritt, a neighbour of the Brewer family, praised the firefighter.“It’s just like him . . . he always does little things like this.” Noting that some people object to the cost of having fire halls manned around the clock, Merritt said that firefighters “take good care of us and our families, and this (Thursday’s accident) is a good example.” Merritt said that the woman who was driving the pickup also jumped out of her vehicle and ran to the boy’s side. “She was just hysterical.” In a letter to the editor (see page 7), writer T. Williams said that she was getting her children ready for school when there was frantic knocking on her door by someone asking if she would drive the mothers of the children who were in the crosswalk to the scene.

“When we arrived, there was the most emergency response to an accident that I had ever seen,”Williams wrote. Thanking emergency personnel, she urged drivers to slow down. Stafford principal Gary McCuaig was also at the scene, talking to parents. When he returned to school, he informed students, teachers and staff about the accident, and school counsellor Mike de Wit talked to Grade 7 and 8 students, assuring them of his support if students needed it. Help from the RCMP’s Victim Services division and school district staff was also offered, McCuaig said. A newsletter accompanied by a pamphlet on pedestrian safety was sent home with every student.

Melatonin is a hormone which occurs naturally in the body. It is available without a prescription and has been proven to help people reduce jet-lag when traveling through many time zones, especially west to east. It is best taken close to the normal bedtime of your destination. It’s available in many different strengths. Our pharmacists can advise you on this topic. Those who started playing a musical instrument early in life and are still playing, seem to have less of a problem with memory as they age. This could also be applied to those who have sung in choirs for many years.

Gaining too much weight during pregnancy is still a problem in Canada. For normal weight women, a gain of 11.5 kg to 16 kg is good. For overweight women the gain should be between 7 kg and 11 kg. For obese women, the gain should be no more than 7 kg. One kilogram (kg) equals 2.2 lb. Keeping medications out of the reach of children is a warning put on many medications. Depending on the medication, even one dose can be very damaging to small children. It is best to keep ALL medications out of the reach.

Vet, family received threats from PAGE 1

He said Buddy was an injured racehorse that was due to be euthanized when his daughter and a friend rescued him, one of four horses “dumped” at the farm. Marohn said he asked the SPCA three times to take the horses, but was ignored. He also asked a local horse club for help in finding new homes and feeding the animals, but none was forthcoming. The events that led to his arrest and animal cruelty charges came after a series of personal setbacks that had left him virtually destitute, Marohn testified. He was left unable to work after he broke his spine in three places in April of 2000 during a vacation and when he did return to work, he could not treat large animals like horses and the number of cases had to be cut back. His wife also developed serious

health issues of her own. “It wiped us out financially.” He successfully sued for compensation for the holiday accident, but the money didn’t arrive in time to save their house from foreclosure. “We were homeless,” Marohn said. “We bounced around to different friends.” Eventually he was able to lease a 2.5 acre farm site. He and his wife had separated by then, but when the owner sold the property, she came back to pack up her possessions. The stress had taken a toll. “I was very sickly, very disoriented, not feeling well.” He was down to 128 pounds, from 193. After the story of the alleged towing became public, threats started pouring in, Marohn said. He said he has records of internet postings from people saying Marohn and his family

should be killed, should be burnt, should be tied to the back of a truck and dragged until they were dead. “Were there a lot of things in my life that were down and bad and heading further down?” Marohn said. “I’d have to say there were.” Defence and prosecution have been conducting a voir dire, or trial within a trial to decide what evidence is admissible. The case is set to resume Oct. 11 when the judge is expected to rule on a defence application to exclude much of the evidence, on the grounds police violated Marohn’s rights. The defence has also filed a document indicating Marohn may seek to have the charges quashed because of excessive delays. Schoyen-Marohn’s trial had to be postponed because she suffered a stroke. Her case is not scheduled to start until October of next year.

Policing’s future

Progress on homeless

he shape of policing in B.C. is in much doubt, following revelations that the federal government and B.C. government are at odds over the next RCMP contract. While the federal government apparently has set a Nov. 30 deadline for the province to sign a 20-year contract, Heritage Minister James Moore was downplaying that deadline on Friday. He indicated that the two sides should be able to come up with something both can agree on. Provincial Solicitor General Shirley Bond revealed the deadlock when she spoke to municipal officials at their annual convention last week. Langley City Mayor Peter Fassbender, who is on the provincial negotiating team, also stated there was a serious gulf between the two sides. Cooler heads need to prevail. The RCMP need B.C. just as much as B.C. needs the RCMP. There are 6,000 Mounties working here — the most of any Canadian province. If their contract isn’t renewed, many of them will be out of a job. B.C. is right to insist on greater accountability for the RCMP. The public has demanded this since the death of Robert Dziekanski at the Vancouver aiport, at the hands of Taser-wielding RCMP officers. While a civilian oversight agency is being set up, the RCMP themselves must be more accountable to the province and local governments. Municipalities also have grave concerns about budget implications. There is a good chance that the RCMP will become unionized, and that employee costs will rise sharply. Even if wages stay the same, there could be significant overtime bills. Municipal budgets can’t handle large, unexpected costs such as this and some assurance about how much costs will rise in the future is crucial. The federal government, which has the most tax authority in the country, should be willing to accept a one or two per cent annual cap on additional costs to be borne by the province and municipalties, and absorb anything above that figure. It has far more ability to absorb those costs than local governments, which are dependent on property tax, do. Such a clause would also prompt Ottawa to be much more rigourous in managing RCMP expenditures. The two sides need to get back to the bargaining table and bargain in good faith. At the same time, the province and municipalities need to have a plan B fully in place, in case no deal can be reached.

bbotsford is making significant headway in dealing with a very complex and controversial issue — homelessness. Evidence of that is contained in the 2011 Fraser Valley Regional District count, which found 117 homeless people in this city, a drop of almost half since the last count in 2008. Mission had similar positive results. Meanwhile, Chilliwack, Agassiz and Hope all experienced significant increases. Why are Abbotsford and Mission more successful in reducing their homeless numbers, while neighbouring communities are not? One answer may be Abbotsford’s policy of dismantling homeless camps, and referrring their occupants to shelters and the social services available to them. Some may take it, and others may just move elsewhere. It’s not a perfect program, since many homeless people don’t want the help, for a variety of reasons. They may be distrustful of other shelter clients. In many cases, they are dealing with mental illness, or substance abuse issues, which are barriers to accessing more permanent housing. In that respect, the district’s final report recommends that no-barrier housing, with strong support systems to deal with the issues the homeless bring with them, are key factors in solving the homelessness issue over the long term. Along with the care, however, there have to be boundaries. The public generally understands that homeless people need help to resolve their situations. However, leaving them to camp under bridges, or in urban/suburban bush areas, is not acceptable. The City of Abbotsford has it right. Move the homeless out of the camps, towards existing services, while continuing to lobby senior governments for more assistance. It seems to be working. —Abbotsford News (Black Press) The Langley Times is a member of the British Columbia Press Council, a self-regulatory body governing the province’s newspaper industry.

Horse community deserves more support Editor: Re: “Horse Federation requests will be pricey,” (The Times, Sept. 29). In the upcoming election, both equine and non-equine supporters are voicing their opinions as to how the government should be orchestrated. I speak for the equine supporters. With subdivisions and development in Langley, there has been more and more problems with animals in our area. Horses have been depositing ‘bundles of apples’ on roads and trails. This creates odour problems, sanitary concerns and ruins the general image of Langley. Cats, dogs and large animals have been running abundant and animal shelters have become overcrowded. Dangerous animals have created fear. All this led to the Animal Control bylaw in 2005. It provided what appears to be a safe, legal way to deal with enforcement of penalties, animal control shelter operation, licensed kennels, control of animals, licensing of dogs, dangerous dogs and aggressive dogs. In very few places are there mentions of horses.

There are even fewer mentions of cats. Cats are the silent menace to society. Just like horses, they usually have a sweet nature. They are normally owned by families who will have, on average, no more that three felines. Unlike horses, there are many homeless cats. They are known to spread diseases, caught from the mice or creatures they catch. Most are not neutered. Animals, especially nocturnal animals, are vulnerable to cats that hunt. For most cat owners, keeping, maintaining and loving their cat is not a problem. As with horse owners, most of them do not create problems. Yet this letter writer targeted horses, not cats. The difference between the equine and feline community is simple. Their relative size plays a huge difference. Horses eat more, and therefor pass feces more consistently and in larger quantities. They can also be taken out, but unlike taking a dog for a walk, humans have chosen to ride them. Cats and dogs can use

much smaller areas to exercise in. One hectare of land can effectively exercise 20 dogs in a dog park. For the same number of horses, at least 30 acres are needed. Licensing horses, as we do dogs, might control a population of horses. They are already highly-controlled. The horse population in Langley is estimated at 3,858.The reason it is not larger is because the cost of a horse (the initial buying price) ranges from $1,000 to $10,000. Langley is the horse capital of B.C. and is proud of its numbers, as well as the more than $60 million in annual economic output. When was the last time you saw a horse running around our busy roads? The horse community is a very small one. I sold a horse five years ago and a friend, of a friend, of someone’s aunt now owns that horse. The horse community is very tight and many would argue small. No horse issue goes unseen. Horses pass a total of 51 pounds of manure a day. Horses are normally fed grass or hay, and do not look in garbage cans or

WHITE ELEPHANT

No need for the Mufford Overpass Editor: When are the Township bureaucrats and the provincal government going to realize the Mufford Overpass is a complete white elephant? I have timed the delays caused by the average train at three and a half minutes. It took me two hours last month to get from Burnaby to Langley. The only place where an overpass is justified is the Langley Bypass, but that is

apparently too expensive. Mufford Crescent and 64 Avenue is used by shoppers at Superstore,Canadian Tire,Walmart, Home Depot,Costco and London Drugs. The intersections at both Fraser Highway and 200 Street are congested by turning traffic. It is nonsense to assume trucks will use this route. As for the old chestnut about emergency traffic,

there is an overpass at 204 Street, on which I have yet to see emergency traffic. A detour to use it would take more than three and a half minutes. With the downturn in the Asian economym we may well see less rail traffic, not more,but that won’t deter our tax and spend politicans. David Woolley, Langley

Rail overpass belongs on the Bypass Editor: It is clear that there are only two practical solutions to the train and traffic issues in Langley: ❒ Reroute the trains away from Langley. No matter what is done in the way of overpasses, there does not seem to be any practical way to deal with the traffic problems that are going to occur at 200 Street and the Langley Bypass. ❒ Deal with the traffic problems at the east end of the Bypass by putting an overpass there. The

The proposal to put an overpass on the Mufford route makes no sense. There will be very little benefit to traffic. The $50 million cost will be an almost total waste of money. In addition, this route compromises the ALR for no good reason. You don’t have to be an engineer to look at the diagrams and see how ugly and inefficient this proposal will be if built. Prominent technical professionals have vehemently criticized this plan as being a very poor compromise.

It would make much more sense to wait until the money is available to put the overpass on the Bypass, where it belongs. Traffic should then be routed from Willoughby Hill south onto the Bypass via the existing traffic light at 202 Street. Routing traffic far to the east on Mufford makes no sense, when most of the traffic travels north and south in this area. Doug McFee, Langley

need to kill for their food. Horses do bite, but only if threatened. They would much prefer to escape than attack. Horses can only have a maximum of two foals a year (and that is if there are twins). How will candidates try to secure election and please both parties? That is why equine issues have been ignored or set aside for someone else to fix. Don’t license horses.Tax money should be put into a horse trail network, which has been slowly diminishing, and would keep the manure off the sidewalks. Manure is the biggest issue, but Langley Horse Federation also called for signs, broader road shoulders, and more convenient riding facilities. I hope Langley Township will be sympathetic to the equine community. Horses have a place here; to remove them would be to remove part of B.C.’s heritage. If there is a practical, safe and economically sound way to fix these issues, we should do so. Langley deserves it. Amber Gambling, Langley

Wake-up call for drivers Editor: I was getting my kids ready for school Thursday morning, when I received a frantic knock at my door. I heard that my son’s friends had been hit by a car, and was asked to drive the two mothers to their kids. Dropping everything, we took off to where the boys had been hit. When we arrived, there was the most emergency response to an accident that I had ever seen. Unfortunately, one child had to be airlifted to hospital. Later the other boy was transported to hospital by ambulance. This has to be another wake-up call to all drivers. I was talking to a woman who was there. She told me it was a wake-up call to her, because she’s a little speedy. Next time she gets in her car, this will remind her to slow down. Please drivers, we need to remember that it’s school time again, and lots of kids walk to school. As parents, we teach our kids road safety, which these kids followed by waiting for the ‘walk’ sign On Thursday, that didn’t help. Only the driver of the vehicle knows what happened to make her step on the gas instead of the brake. We sit and wait to hear how our childrens’ friends are doing. Thank you to all the police, paramedics, firefighters and H.D. Stafford staff who were there, for the great care of the kids and comforting words and support for the parents. To the parents of the children involved, our family wishes you all a speedy recovery. T. Williams, Langley

The Crown prosecutor’s office has now approved 21 theft-related charges against two Abbotsford brothers police call “prolific property crime offenders”who were already facing trial for a break-in and robbery at the South Surrey home of Sharon Symes, the owner of Porter’s Bistro Coffee & Tea House in Langley. Darwin Duane Dorozan, 36, is facing two charges of Break and Enter and has been released on strict conditions. Dane Dewey Dorozan, 35, has been charged with 19 counts of break and enter, one charge of possession of stolen property and one charge of assault with a weapon. He’s in jail. The charges were laid Tuesday (Sept 27). The Dorozans were arrested Aug. 15 shortly after $20,000 worth of property was stolen from the Symes’ Surrey house. The Dorozans are believed responsible for other residential breakand-enters in Langley, Surrey, White Rock and New Westminster. “The skills and perseverance that our Property Crime team demonstrated in pursuit of these criminals was outstanding,” said Supt. Bill Fordy, Investigative Services Officer. “It was great police work.”

Schaffer-Charlesworth seeks trustee position Kirsten Schaffer-Charlesworth is running in the Township of Langley for school trustee. The married Willoughby resident has two children, one attending R.C. Garnett Elementary. The other is in preschool. She said the new board must be financially responsible. “My goals are to ensure that there is full, accurate and timely communication between parents, taxpayers and all levels of government regarding growth, boundary changes, land disposals and development,” she said. “We also need better long-term planning to effectively address capacity issues on the Willoughby slope and changing enrolment patterns.” Her father, Ted, was a councillor in Langley City for 18 years and her mother, Jean, was an elementary

school secretary. Schaffer-Charlesworth is a current member of the Township of Langley Recreation, Culture and Parks Advisory CommitKirsten tee and the Langley SchafferWalk Task Force. Charlesworth She was also a chair of the 2010 BC Summer Games in Langley, and a former member of the Langley Early Childhood Development Communications Committee. “I do not have all the answers but I will work hard and be open and honest,” she said. “I am a quick learner.” She also ran for the board of education in the 2008 election.

Robber nabbed in minutes The man who robbed the Jimy Mac Liquor Store in North Langley on Saturday night didn’t get very far. Around 11 p.m., the male suspect entered the store, dressed all in black, with a bandana covering his face. He pointed a firearm at an employee. He demanded and got the cash tray containing a small amount of money, then fled on foot. A police dog was able to track the suspect down the road north of the liquor store.

A man matching the description of the robber in the area was arrested soon after. The suspect, a 29-year-old New Westminster man, was arrested and is currently in custody at Langley RCMP detachment. Police believe there is a link between the Jimy Mac’s robbery and another two days earlier, on Sept. 29, when the Berezan Liquor Store in the 8300 block of 200 Street was held up at about 2:30 p.m.

Donation helps LAPS establish medical fund Since 2003, the Langley Animal Protection Society has provided animal control services to both the City and Township.A non-profit society, it is dedicated to caring for Langley’s stray, lost and unwanted animals. Thanks to a $10,000 donation from the Shewan Foundation, LAPS recently established its first designated medical fund which will help pay for unexpected medical procedures for dogs and cats. LAPS general manager Sean Baker said that after spending an average of $60,000 a year on vet visits, little is left for surgical procedures. “Our animals are blessed to receive this support,” Baker said. “Langley is a very generous

community and we receive support from many faithful donors, but a donation of this size is significant to our organization,” Baker said. The new fund has already benefited some of the shelter animals, such as Little Foot, a six-month-old Chihuahua which recently arrived at LAPS in very poor health. He had a fractured foot, shattered jaw and a large puncture wound on the side of his face.The Shewan Foundation’s donation provided the funds for surgery to repair Little Foot’s broken foot and will cover the costs associated with a second surgery on his injured jaw. “Our hope is to help those that need it the most, like Little Foot,” said Baker.

The donation also helped pay for surgery to repair the broken hind leg of a young cat,Agustina. The Shewan Foundation also gave $2,500 to boost the current LAPS spay and neuter program, which provides free vouchers to members of the community who can’t afford to alter their cats. The foundation’s donation was well timed with the kickoff of the LAPS fourth annual Fall Gala, the Furry Tail Endings: the Shewan family has also sponsored two tables for LAPS’s Oct. 29 gala, bringing their contribution to almost $15,000. ••••• On Tuesday, Nov. 29,Willowbrook Shopping Centre will host a ‘Denim Do’ shopping event which will be

open exclusively to ticket holders. The event, which takes place from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. will allow participants to beat holiday shopping crowds, take advantage of exclusive savings and help Langley schools at the same time, as it is a fundraiser for the Langley School District Foundation. The evening will feature live entertainment from Jaydee Bixby, the CCMA 2010 and 2011 Rising Star nominee and runner-up in the 2007 Canadian Idol contest.The event will include a blue jean fit clinic from Willowbrook’s stylist, Giovanni Amenta, special ‘blue carpet treatment’ for all attendees, as well as beverages and sweets. There will be lots of prizes and

many in-store exclusive discounts of up to 75 per cent off at many of Willowbrook’s 150 stores and services. Willowbrooks’ style crew will be out spotting those wearing jeans for a chance to win other prizes. More information about the event is available at www. shopwillowbrook.com. All proceeds from the event go to the Langley School District Foundation to support music programs and to buy state-of-the-art technology for local public schools. Tickets are $10 and can be bought at the Langley School Board office, 4675 222 St., or at Willowbrook Shopping Centre. For more info, contact Susan Cairns 604-532-1464.

Police ask help in finding suspect He is a skinny Caucasian with a pale complexion, sunken cheeks, and short brown hair, approximately 28 to 30 years old. Langley RCMP have released a composite drawing of the man who grabbed a Grade 12 student from Aldergrove Community Secondary School on Thursday, Sept. 22 in the 27200 block of 32 Avenue around 1 p.m. The girl told police a male in a red pickup truck approached her and asked if she needed a ride. When she declined, he drove away. But a short time later, further east on 32 Avenue, he parked his vehicle, got out and moved towards the teen. He grabbed her arm but released her when she punched him in the face. The man then returned to his vehicle and fled. The vehicle is described as a 1998-2000 Dodge Dakota pickup truck, fire engine red with a matching canopy with tinted windows.

The girl noted there was some rust on the running board behind the front passenger wheel. The truck had chrome bumpers and there was some sort of decal or emblem on the passenger side tailgate. There was a silver chain with an angel on it hanging from the rear view mirror. The man was wearing a white T-shirt with a steering wheel a n d black b i r d design. T h e Langle y Serious Crime Unit is investiSuspect gating. Officers said they hope to obtain footage of the truck from some traffic cameras in the area.

I can assure you that this Board will not be short of ideas and are already fully engaged in a keeping this a vibrant organization that remains true to it’s purpose. With our strategic plan for the term now in place we will be forming committees and task forces in these key areas and will be looking to you, the membership to participate.

Canada. Of particular interest to Western Canada are resolutions with regards to our efforts around commercial border services, transportation infrastructure and funding, and various resolutions pertaining to business taxation. Once the agreed upon amendments are made to the documents and the official policy book of the Canadian Chamber is released, we will post them on our website. This policy book forms the work of the Canadian Chamber who will lobby on our behalf with the Federal Government in Ottawa. We will keep you apprised of the outcome of their efforts as information is made available. Its interesting to note that a common theme in all provinces across Canada is the need for Job Creation and Skills Development. We were very pleased to recently meet with Provincial Parliamentary Secretary John Les and our MLA Mary Polak on this very subject. As we move into Small Business Month in British Columbia your chamber has arranged numerous events and programs to provide you with educational seminars, networking opportunities and of course the Business Excellence Awards. We look forward to seeing many of you out at these events. I would like to encourage you to approach any one of your Board members or our Chamber Staff to discuss any questions, concerns or suggestions you may have. We’d love to hear your thoughts.

2011 HD Stafford Good Citizen of the Year Honouring the one who contributes the most towards unification or bringing together education, business and citizens to make a difference in the community. Since 1980, the Chamber of Commerce has offered the HD Stafford Good Citizen of the Year Award to a deserving resident of the Langley area to thank them and recognize their outstanding contribution to the community. This award

honours the memory of the late Harold Stafford who epitomized what a good citizen should be. Mr. Stafford dedicated an enormous amount of time and effort, and worked relentlessly on new initiatives to make Langley a better place to live and conduct business. Whatever project or cause Harold Stafford became involved in, he attacked it with admirable tenacity and would not let it go until he had seen

the project through to a successful and meaningful completion. The HD Stafford Good Citizen of the Year Award will be presented at the Chamberâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s General Dinner Meeting on Tuesday, December 13, 2011. Nominations close Friday, November 25, 2011. Nomination forms are available by contacting the Chamber office at 604530-6656 or events@langleychamber.com

Keeping costs low while continuing to grow By Jeff Lorenz A challenge for many business owners is understanding how to keep operating costs low while continuing to grow their business. It is often tempting to narrow your focus on the short term, buying small and planning to improve equipment or systems as and when your business grows; however what might save you money in the short term can often cost you more in the long run. So when it comes to your operational costs, planning is key.

3 Questions You Should Ask Before Committing to a Large Operational Expense To meet your business goals and expand your operations while keeping costs low, there are three questions you should ask before every large purchase or employment of service: 1. How flexible is it and will it adapt to my changing business needs? (Flexibility) 2. Can it scale incrementally as my business grows? (Scalability) 3. Will I have to manage it myself or will someone take care of it for me? (Outsourcing)

Flexibility It is important to analyze the lifespan of each product or service, and how this will affect your company. When expanding your business you are likely to move premises, open a secondary location or allow employees to work from home. Each of these scenarios will have an effect on the tools and services used by your employees to be able to do their role. You must therefore consider if the product or service can be upgraded or downgraded without disruption to the rest of the business, and if you should buy bigger now to save buying again when you have outgrown the original and need more of the product or service. Look at where you want your business to be in three years time before committing to any purchase and see if the product or service fits with where you want to be. Can the product or service handle these eventualities? If the answer is no, then do you really want to go through the same purchase process again in three years time?

Scalability Consider flexibility: can the purchase be increased in size or number of users and if not, what are the financial consequences? If you are using a phone system for four employees can you increase the number of ports for 8 employees. If you have a web server which can handle X number of visitors a month with no video streaming, will it be able to handle an increase of several thousand and the use of video on your site? Disruptions in service to fix issues can be costly to your business so by taking time to consider your future needs you can save your business both time and money for the future.

Outsourcing You do not need to be a master of all things. If you have an ad agency your skill sets may not include managing the telephone system for your business; if you are a construction company your skill sets may not include maintaining your IT security. Small businesses often disregard outsourcing of services out of fear for lack of control and spiraling costs, however this is not always the case. Know your employees and your own skill sets. If you do not have knowledge or experience in an area, consider the cost of your time and the time taken away from potential sales, in comparison to hiring a professional to find the solution for you. By finding a partner and building a relationship with the right outsourced company â&#x20AC;&#x201C; you can work as a team to handle all the issues which your expertise does not cover and can concentrate on growing your business.

Things to Remember So in summary; when planning your operational needs you should remember: Do not base your business around the technology you know about. By narrowing your focus to traditional operations systems like IT or telephones it may hinder your businesses growth. Instead think about what you need and then find the solution to fit those needs. Look to the future. Just because a product or service suits your needs now does not mean it is flexible to your business as it grows and develops.

October Business Breakfast Club Glen Grant

Canadian Chamber of Commerce Update Lynn Whitehouse, Executive Director

The Chamber of Commerce Executives of Canada (CCEC) and Canadian Chamber of Commerce AGM & Conferences were held in St. John’s, NL September 15 to 19. St. John’s is a beautiful city with extensive history as the oldest settlement in North America. We found the people to be very friendly and hospitable and even Hurricane Maria couldn’t dampen their spirits! I attended the CCEC Conference with approximately 80 Chamber Executive Directors from every province. It was very timely as the focus of this conference was on leadership and communications. A session of particular interest offered advice on leveraging online technology to benefit our members and community. It was also interesting to note that the Greater Langley Chamber of Commerce is quite advanced at our use of social media and that many Chambers in Canada are still in the consideration mode. I think we will all agree that Jaclyn has done a terrific job of ‘getting us out there’! Later in the week, President Denni Bonetti and 2nd Vice-President Jeremy East joined me to attend the Canadian Chamber AGM along with over 300 delegates from all across Canada and plugged into the latest developments, trends and issues important to the Canadian business community and set the Canadian Chamber’s policy agenda for the upcoming year. Among the policies voted in favour, delegates supported the resolution to extend tax relief for small business and increase the reduced tax rate eligibility from $500k to $1million. Delegates also voted in favour of the resolution to increase Federal investment to market Canada as an International destination. A couple of policies were passed to call on the Federal Government to: improve Canada’s immigration process, sighting immigration can & must play a key role in labour market needs; and to remove Inter-provincial trade barriers to sales of 100% Canadian wine. We were also successful at gaining support of the delegates with regards to commercial processing at Aldergrove and other ports of entry across Canada. Attending these two conferences offered us an opportunity to meet and network with colleagues from across the country, to gain new ideas and practical information to help the Greater Langley Chamber of Commerce succeed and ensure our concerns are part of the Canadian Chamber Policy Agenda in Ottawa.

strings together Langley Ukulele Ensemble celebrates 30 years with a reunion concert on Saturday, Oct. 15 NATASHA JONES Times Reporter

hen Leonard Maltin was persuaded by ukulele-playing friends to watch The Mighty Uke, the famous movie critic remarked that the highlight “was learning about the school program in Langley, Vancouver, that introduces kids to strumming and, before long, has them playing Flight of the Bumblebee and the William Tell Overture.” Maltin called the bonus segments of the documentary, which featured the Langley Ukulele Ensemble, “an absolute delight.” Langley residents who have not yet had a similar experience with the four-stringed instrument, which got its name from the Hawaiian for ‘dancing flea,’ will have the chance at the Langley Ukulele Ensemble’s 30th anniversary concert on Saturday, Oct. 15. The event, which begins at 7:30 p.m., will take place at the Bell Centre, 6250 144 St., in Surrey. For tickets, call 604-507-6355, or buy online at www. bellperformingartscentre.com. The concert will feature not only the current members of the ensemble, but many who belonged to the group over the past three decades. These include James Hill, and Paul and Mark Luongo, whose father, Peter, is the music director of the LUE. Other performers include J. Chalmers Doane, whom Peter Luongo describes as “the father of the Canadian ukulele,” and Exit 58, a trio of former ensemble members, Kendra Simonetto (formerly Croft), Chris Parsons and Laura Day. Simonetto said she is looking forward to seeing the old alumni members, some of whom she hasn’t seen for more than 10 years. “It will also be great fun to be back on stage playing the ukes with the ensemble,” she said. Clearly, the LUE had a profound influence on her life. “It taught me stage presence, public speaking and how to

perform in front of live audiences of any size,” she said. “It helped me gain confidence with people during my awkward teen years. It allowed me to explore music and fall deeper in love with the art of making music, and perhaps most importantly, it was through the ensemble that I met lifelong friends, many of whom I remain best friends with even today,” she said. It was also through the LUE that she came to realize a love for teaching and leadership. She is now an elementary school teacher in Langley. Simonetto, Parsons and Day have all remained Langley residents, and their name, Exit 58, refers to the 200 Street exit from Highway 1. Performing at the concert will be thrilling. “For us as a group, it really represents coming ‘full circle’ from our time in the ensemble,” she said. “It is a sort of homecoming, being back on the same stage with our own trio over 10 years later alongside Peter Luongo. So much in our personal lives has changed (getting married, having children) that it will be really neat for our family and friends to see us back with the LUE one more time.” Exit 58 performs throughout the Lower Mainland, at private functions, weddings, corporate functions (hosted by Rotary, Coast Capital Savings, etc.), charity fundraisers, art shows, community events such as the BC Summer Games torch lighting ceremony, and monthly performances at a restaurant in White Rock. For the past 17 years, the Langley Ukulele Ensemble has been invited to perform in Hawaii, and so the anniversary concert would not be complete without Polynesian dancers Halau Hula Ka’Uhane O Ka Pakipika, who will give a vibrant and rousing edge to the concert. Many of the current ensemble’s members played in an invitation-only concert at the start of the 2010 Winter Olympics. They have played for Rick Hansen and a host of other celebrities, and thanks to The Mighty Uke, they have followers across the globe. Last September’s concert at the Cascades Summit Theatre in Langley was filmed, and a DVD of the concert will be on sale, along with CDs of the Langley Ukulele Ensemble, at the Bell Centre.

It will be something of a family affair at the Langley Community Music School this year. The Rose Gellert Hall and Concerts Café Classico concert season for 2011/2012 is just around the corner, and the program will be headlined by some of the country’s best known classical musicians — several of whom will be taking the stage with members of their own families. The St. Lawrence String Quartet, the Turning Point Ensemble, and three of the West Coast’s finest interpreters of baroque music — Marc Destrubé, violin, Natalie Mackie, viola da gamba, and Byron Schenkman, harpsichord — will take turns on stage in the Langley Community Music School over the next several months. “We are looking forward to superb season filled with beautiful masterworks performed by great artists,” said Elizabeth Bergmann, artistic director for LCMS. “Concert enthusiasts can expect a variety of genres and styles of music ranging from groups like the famous St. Lawrence String Quartet to Vancouver’s own stellar Turning Point Ensemble.” The Rose Gellert Hall series includes four main stage concerts. The season opens on Oct.15 with elite Canadian pianist Bruce Vogt and a celebration of the works of piano virtuoso Franz Liszt. On Nov. 19 the St. Lawrence String Quartet, one of Canada’s well-known ensembles with a world-class reputation, will present works by Mozart, Korngorld, and Adams. The season continues in the New Year, with a baroque music concert titled Music from the Time of the Sun King, performed on Jan. 21 by Marc Destrubé, violin, Natalie Mackie, viola da gamba, and Byron Schenkman, harpsichord. The series finale on March 30 features LCMS’ resident ensemble Turning Point Ensemble. The large chamber ensemble will present an intriguing program showcasing the relationship and reciprocal influence between jazz and ‘serious’ music with works by Stravinsky and Ellington juxtaposed, paired with the international premiere of two new works by jazz artist Dave Douglas and a new work by LCMS alumnus Brad Turner. Rose Gellert Hall performances begin at 7:30 p.m. The Rose Gellert Hall concerts are complimented with LCMS’ educational series, launching in September. Concerts Café Classico hosts a variety of performers and programs and includes a preconcert chat and refreshments before each 60-minute concert program. “This year’s Concerts Café Classico series is themed ‘A Family Affair’,” says Bergmann.

The St. Lawrence String Quartet is among the acts that will perform at LCMS this concert season. The ensemble takes the stage at Rose Gellert Hall on Nov. 19 to present works by Mozart, Korngold and Adams. “Most of our concerts feature artists who are related in some form or another.” The series, which began in late September, continues on Oct. 23 at 3 p.m. when the LCMS faculty family Ian Hampton, cello, Luiza Nelepcu, violin, and Leslie Janos, piano will take the stage to perform a variety of trio repertoire. LCMS is pleased to present the Harp Duo on Jan. 29 at 3 p.m with Miya and Kaori Otake performing some of the rarely heard harp duo literature. On Feb. 26 at 3 p.m. the Bergmann Piano Duo will once again take the stage at LCMS to share one piano as they perform duet literature by Mozart, Schubert, and Bernstein. The season continues April 22 with another ‘familial collaboration,’ featuring Joel Stobbe, cello, Karl Stobbe, violin, and Betty Sudermann, piano. It concludes with a Night Café and jazz per-

formance on May 25 at 7 p.m. with Jodi Proznick, bass, Tilden Webb, piano and friends. Season subscriptions are 15 per cent off regular ticket prices. Rose Gellert Hall subscriptions are $82 adults, $73 seniors, and $58 students. Regular tickets, purchased for an individual concert, range from $22-$30 adults, $20-$25 seniors, and $16-$20 students. Concerts Café Classico subscriptions are available for $77 adults, $67 seniors, and $51 students. A Concerts Café Classico flex pass is also available. It offers admission to any four concerts for $54 adults and $47 seniors. Regular tickets are available for $15 adults, $13 seniors and $10 students. Call the box office for tickets at 604-534-2848.

Fraser Valley Biennale wraps up Oct. 9

Sculptures by Susan Gorris are on display at the Biennale.

Time is running out to check out the work of six Langley artists taking part in the Fraser Valley Biennale. Until Oct. 9, the Reach Gallery Museum in Abbotsford is showcasing 26 local and regional art-making, and profiling some of the best visual artists from across the Fraser Valley. Presented in collaboration with the Abbotsford, Langley, Maple Ridge and Mission Arts Councils, the biennale is a series of juried exhibitions celebrating regional visual art, ranging from sculpture, painting and photography to installation and video art. Among those whose work is on display are Doris Hutton Auxier, Jo-Ann Sheen, Randall Steeves, Dan Lefebvre, Aaron Moran and Susan Gorris. Auxier is concerned with the environmental issues of the Fraser Valley such as efforts to protect the Langley Bog and Riverview Mental Hospital’s Colony Farm.

Auxier’s two paintings which are on display depict the complexity of moss and other forms of vegetation that are under threat. Sheen is from Fort Langley and has been focusing on print-making. Her work makes reference to the quilt making tradition and draws parallels between printmaking and quilt making. Steeves explores the medium of painting in an increasingly media based world and is driven by a conviction that the act of painting is another way to experience the essential features of reality. Steeve’s paintings consist of bees wax mixed with pigments and brushed into the canvas to create a layer of translucent wax and a complex surface. Lefebvre, is a woodcarver who started carving at the age of 15. Through the use of tools and fallen wood, Lefebvre designs and creates wood carvings that express personal reflections on life around him. Moran uses found materials from suburban

demolition and construction sites to create geometric assemblages which draw attention to their present state of uselessness. Moran’s assemblages made from wood, acrylic and house paint draw attention to material structural/architectural qualities, complexity and organized chaos. Gorris, a multimedia artist from Aldergrove, uses a variety of mediums to record and react to particular dichotomies in nature and play with human and animal characteristics. Her ceramic work transposes animal forms into the physical image of human forms. “In anthropology, a glimpse into the values, social rituals and language that were pertinent to survival provide threads of opportunity for visual expression,” writes Gorris, in her artist’s statement. “Contrasts of culture are often found in artifacts, stories, architecture and skeletal remains.”

Give cancer the finger North Vancouver man set out on cross-country run back in May as way to raise awareness against prostate cancer JESSICA YOUNG Black Press

unning across Canada: for many of us, Terry Fox is the first name that comes to mind. Before he died of cancer in 1981, Fox made himself a legend by taking on the challenge of running across country to raise awareness and money for cancer research. He covered 5,373 kilometres in 143 days on the road. Now meet Dr. Riley Senft, who is in the midst of attempting that same unimaginable feat — using two legs to conquer Canada and cancer. “Terry Fox was an incredible person. He essentially said, ‘What is the hardest thing for me to do? Run? Okay then I’ll run across Canada,’” Riley said in an email interview. “Terry had one leg, he had cancer, and he didn’t have access to the GPS or social media or any of the other technology that has evolved since he ran that I have access to and yet he managed to capture the heart of our nation and leave an incredible legacy. I don’t have cancer, I have two legs, I have a bigger support vehicle, and I still find this a huge challenge.” People run marathons all the time. And the 42.195 kilometres to cross the finish line is viewed as a huge test to how far the body and mind can be pushed. Riley is back in B.C. and scheduled to run through Langley this afternoon (Oct. 4). He has clocked roughly 60 kilometres a day, well over one marathon every 24 hours. His body is being beaten and

the pavement gives no mercy. “I still have blisters all over my feet and I have given up on the idea that I’ll ever be blister-free during this run. I’ve learned how to minimize them as much as possible but in the beginning I found myself in hospital in Antigonish, Nova Scotia, because of infected blisters that had me off my feet for two days. My legs have gotten Riley used to the mileage but I had hamstring and calf issues in the beginning that I had to see physiologists for along the way. The recent heat wave was brutal and I was drinking over 10 litres of fluid a day.” But despite the grind, Riley says it’s all worth it to raise money and awareness for prostate cancer. His charity is called Step into Action and his goal is to raise $1 million during his run. “I’m doing this because I’m tired of prostate cancer having such a large impact in my life and I want to raise prostate cancer awareness so that men know when they should be getting checked and so that they don’t fear the digital rectal exam because it’s not a big deal at all. “My grandfather died of prostate cancer, my father currently has prostate cancer, a number of close family friends have prostate cancer, and odds are either myself or my brother will get prostate cancer. I hate prostate cancer and this is my way of going to war against it.”

His heart was and is in the right place, but when Riley’s father Rod first heard of what his son wanted to do, it was a shock. “It was the sheer enormity of it,” Rod told Black Press. “He was in the worst shape of his life. He was three and a half years into his medical residency living in Senft Winnipeg. In cancer crusader winter you don’t get the chance to go out and train.” submitted photo Riley may have been out Dr. Riley Sendt is on the tail-end of his cross-Canada run to raise of shape when he started his run this past May, but his awareness of the fight against prostate cancer.

Spartans beat the Heat The Trinity Western Spartans welcomed the UBC Okanagan Heat to the CIS ranks with a 62-56 victory. The womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s basketball teams were playing in pre-season action at the Langley Events Centre on Thursday (Sept. 29). The Spartans picked up the win against their new conference foe despite shooting a lower percentage, connecting on 23.2 per cent

of their field goals compared to their opponentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 36.1 per cent. Trinity Western made up for that discrepancy by going 7-for21 from the three-point line. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was an interesting game,â&#x20AC;? said Spartans coach Cheryl JeanPaul. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re introducing seven new people to the program so itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to take some time for everyone to get on the same page.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think it was a great game for our returning athletes to see the results of all the hard work they put in the off-season and to realize they have the ability to win games this year.â&#x20AC;? The Spartans were led by Jenelle Treberâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 14 points and Holley Stromâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dozen points and eight rebounds Tiffany Olsen chipped in with eight points and 11 boards.

Much like 2010, when the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s curling powers go head-to-head, the action is intense and the bragging rights are immense. In this event, six of the top womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s teams from North America face off with six of the best from the rest of the world. In the seven previous meetings, North America has won four. In Langley, Team World will be out to even the score. Diamond Sponsor

Pumpkin Fun Run/Walk

Imagine the Langley Rivermen facing off against the Vancouver Canucks or the Langley Rams playing the Green Bay Packers. Maybe the Trinity Western Spartans soccer team up against Manchester United or the basketball team hitting the hardwood against the Los Angeles Lakers. Or the Langley Blaze taking on the New York Yankees. While these local Langley teams do feature some top-level athletes, that is nothing compared to playing professional athletes. And this is what awaits the Trinity Western menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s volleyball team. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We go in with eyes wide open,â&#x20AC;? said Spartans coach Ben Josephson. The Spartans leave for Doha, Qatar tomorrow (Oct. 5) where they will represent Canada at the FIVB club world volleyball championships. They were chosen by NORCECA (North America, Central America and Caribbean) to represent the region at the eight-team tournament, which features the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best club teams, including the two-time defending champions Trentino from Italy and the Russian champion Zenit Kazan. â&#x20AC;&#x153;These are the best players in the world,â&#x20AC;? Josephson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;These are the guys we watch on YouTube, the guys they model their games after. â&#x20AC;&#x153;To get the chance to be on the same floor as them, play against their heroes, is an awesome learning experience for us.â&#x20AC;?

Trinity Western Spartansâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Daniel Jansen Van Doorn hammers a ball between UBCâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Cary Brett (14) and Jarrid Ireland last week at Yale Secondary in pre-season volleyball. The Spartans won in five sets. Jansen Van Doorn and the rest of his teammates are off to Qatar this week for the FIVB world club volleyball championships. pulling off a Cinderella upset, or of having their confidence hurt by showing badly. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are not really concerned about having our confidence shattered,â&#x20AC;? said Marc Howatson.â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is just a good chance to see what the best players in the world are like, what we can strive for.â&#x20AC;? The team will focus on improvement and learning. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They are physically and experience-wise just way better than us,â&#x20AC;? Howatson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We just go in worrying about our own side of the net and work on things we need to work on.â&#x20AC;? The chance to attend the tournament came out of the blue. With no pro teams in

North America, last year the Americans sent a squad of their full-time national training centre players. This year, that opportunity was given to the Canadians. But with the national team players in Mexico for the Pan American Games, Trinity Westen was given the opportunity to attend as the defending Canadian Interuniversity Sport national champions. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The stars aligned perfectly for this opportunity so we are hoping to make the most of it,â&#x20AC;? Josephson said. The Spartans are not going into the tournament with any grand illusions of knocking off the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have any expectations; we know we are out-matched badly,â&#x20AC;? the coach said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are hoping to get double figures every set. If we get to 10 points, we are holding our own.â&#x20AC;? The team will use this as a learning experience. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We hope this will set the standard for us for how to train when we get back,â&#x20AC;? Josephson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Once they see what the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best players look like, now we know how far we have to go to push towards that.â&#x20AC;? The world championships run from Oct. 8-14. Following the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s return, they will prepare for the start of the Canada West regular season, which opens Oct. 28.

PRIVATE School for Children with Learning Disabilities and/or ADHD Opening in Surrey, British Columbia. Eaton Arrowsmith School (EAS) is opening a branch of their school in Surrey, British Columbia in September 2012. Currently, Eaton Arrowsmith School has branches in Vancouver and Victoria. The school is designed to improve the cognitive functioning of children with learning disabilities and/or attention disorders. Known as neuroplasticity, this improvement of cognitive functioning involves a regimen of cognitive exercises. These exercises, in turn, alter the brain’s neuronal structure and reorganize neural networks and their functions. This results in signiﬁcantly reduced need for academic support and accommodations. The Arrowsmith School was recently named “The Most Innovative Special Education School” by Sharpbrains.com 2010 Innovation Awards in neuroscience. The Arrowsmith Program is now being utilized in schools across North America. Information Sessions for EAS Surrey will take place at the following locations and dates: October 15th, Saturday - Northview Golf & Country Club - 6857 - 168th Street, Surrey 10 am to 12 pm - November 30th, Wednesday - Ocean Prominade Hotel, 15611 Marine Drive, White Rock - 7 pm to 9 pm - January 24th, Wednesday - Hazelmere Golf & Country Club - 18150 8th Avenue, Surrey - 7 pm to 9 pm. Please RSVP for the information session contact Yuki Ihara at 604-264-8327 or email at reception@eatonarrowsmithschool.com. For anyone interested in more information about EAS Surrey please contact Sandra Heusel, Director of Admissions EAS Vancouver and EAS Surrey at 604264-8327 or sheusel@eatonarrowsmithschool.com
