HOW ’BOUT THEM APPLES?
BRENDA ANDERSON Times Reporter
There are 17 people seeking office in Langley City in this fall’s election. The deadline to run in the Nov. 19 municipal elections came and went on Friday afternoon. And by the time the clock struck 4 p.m., 12 people had filed nomination papers indicating they would run for the six seats on Langley City council. All six incumbents are among them — Jack Arnold, Dave Hall, Teri James, Gayle Martin, Rudy Storteboom and Rosemary Wallace. Challenging them are former councillor Ted Schaffer, Darrell Krell, who ran in 2008, Paul Albrecht, Randy Caine, Dave Humphries and Catfish Potesta. Three candidates have filed for the two City seats on the Board of Education — incumbents Stacey Cody and Rob McFarlane, and newcomer Candy Ashdown. And Langley City Mayor Peter Fassbender will not run unopposed — he’ll be challenged once again for the position by Ron Abgrall, who ran against him in 2008.

Forty-one names on Township ballot Long list of hopefuls vying for eight council seats, while three will seek the mayor’s chair DAN FERGUSON Times Reporter
Sonya Paterson was relieved when her name was called eighth by Township of Langley deputy chief electoral officer Bob Wilson Friday afternoon, during the draw that will determine the order in which names will appear on the election ballot on voting day.
“That’s good,” she said. On a long list of 27 candidates running for councillor, position can be important, she said. Too far down and you run the risk of being overlooked. The former school trustee was one of several candidates to show up for the 4:30 p.m. event. At the close of nominations, three people had filed papers to run for mayor — incumbent Rick Green, incumbent councillor Mel Kositsky and Jack Froese (Froese won top spot on the ballot). The other candidates for council included incumbents Bev Dornan, Steve Ferguson, Charlie Fox, Bob Long. Kim Richter and Grant Ward. Murray Jones and Dan Sheel, who ran in

the 2008 election, are running again. Another former candidate, Petrina Arnason, who ran in 2005, is running again. The Vote Langley Now slate, which is running with Green, has seven candidates running — Tyler deBoer, Tony Malyk, Dorothy McKim, Ben Penner, Carla Robin, Dave Stark and Glen Tomblin (Robin won first spot on the ballot). Both Tomblin and McKim have run for council in the past. Two candidates who ran in the spring federal election are also running. Rebecca Darnell ran for the Liberals in the May election, while Carey Poitras ran for the Green Party. Others seeking one of the eight councillors’ seats are Bert Chen, Wayne Crossen, David Davis, Rick Manuel, Clive Rippingale, Terry Sheldon, Michelle Sparrow and Misty

No injuries, but major congestion in Langley incidents
Are classes oversized? Teachers, district disagree DAN FERGUSON Times Reporter
DAN FERGUSON Times Reporter
In what was the first of two traffic accidents in the same area of Langley in about an hour, a small car and a fullsize van collided at the intersection of 88 Avenue and 200 Street around 4 p.m. Thursday, tying up northbound traffic heading for the freeway. No serious injuries were reported. Two people, the male and female occupants of the car, were taken to Langley Memorial Hospital for examination and quickly released. Occupants of the van were not hurt. Firefighters directed traffic while they

It was the first of two accidents within about an hour that snarled rush hour traffic. No serious injuries were reported from either crash. waited for a tow truck to remove the wreckage from the collision. Within an hour of the first crash,
there was another two-vehicle collision involving a car and a semi-truck, further down 200 Street near 91 Avenue. It created
even more traffic congestion. There were no reported injuries in the second accident. Both incidents were
being treated as an auto insurance issue by police. Charges were not expected in either of the crashes.
Collision near train crossing claims life Early morning head-on crash between vehicle, train kills elderly man DAN FERGUSON Times Reporter
Witnesses say an elderly man drove his vehicle onto the CN tracks near 25900 block of 88 Avenue early Monday morning (Oct. 17) and hit
an oncoming train head-on. It happened around 12:45 a.m. Langley RCMP were called to the area after a local resident phoned to report hearing a train passing by and a loud crash.
Police arrived to find the train had stopped. It had not derailed. They also located a vehicle nearby with a lone occupant, a man believed to be in his 70’s. Witnesses advise the vehicle turned onto the railway tracks at 264 Street and drove west, running head-on into the train in the 25900 block. Police believe alcohol may
have been a factor and cannot determine at this time if the driver’s actions were intentional. Langley Client Support and Victim Services have been requested to provide support for witnesses. The Integrated Collision Analyst Reconstruction Team (ICARS) is assisting Langley Traffic Section with this investigation.

Depending on who does the number-crunching, the latest class size figures for Langley schools show the cash-strapped district has managed to maintain minimum acceptable standards or has failed miserably at serving students with disabilities and other special needs. A report by district director of human resources Barry Bunyan asserts the Langley School District has met provincial ministry of education size limits, while the teachers’ union says the report has confirmed their worst fears about special needs cutbacks. The report by Bunyan says the average class sizes in the district were 18.81 students for Kindergarten classes; 20.89 in Grades 1-3; 27.66 Grades 4-7; and 26.30 in Grades 8-12. However, 12 per cent, or roughly one in every 10 classes, exceeds the maximum of 30 students. In Grade 4 and up, the report notes, teachers have consented to the extra-large classes as required by legislation. The school principal and superintendent must also approve classes, when they are “of the opinion learning conditions are appropriate” the report states. The majority of the oversized elementary classes were band music programs, as were the largest classes in secondary school, where some reported more than 34 students. Langley Teachers’Association (LTA) president Gail Chaddock-Costello said a closer look at the numbers reveals an “astronomical” number of classes are above the maximum allowable limit of three or more “special needs” students. The LTA analysis says 2,601 special needs students are in such over-limit classes. “I didn’t expect it to be as bad as it was,” Chaddock-Costello said. In one class with 35 students, the LTA says, there are eight special needs students including one who cannot speak any English at all and no one present in the class who speaks the same language the student does. Chaddock-Costello said the recent announcement that the district has made an early start on paying down a multi-million dollar deficit was purchased at the expense of keeping class sizes down.

HOME DAMAGED BY FIRE
We know that a pharmacist invented Coca Cola back in 1886. But what we didn’t know was that a pharmacist first created the sundae back in 1892. He added cherry syrup and a candied cherry to a couple of scoops of ice cream for a local minister of the church one Sunday. He wanted to patent it as a Sunday but since the day of the week wasn’t patentable, called it a sundae instead. True story! October is Eye Health Month. As we age, regular eye exams are really important. If you haven’t had your eyes checked in the past few years, do it soon. Often, changes in the eye can be detected early enough to start treatment to avoid the vision deteriorating.

Depression affects about one in ten men. The symptoms can sometimes appear as drinking more or becoming difficult to live with. Interestingly, where women often gain weight when depressed, men seem to lose weight. Depression is something that should not be ignored. See your doctor for help. If your doctor finds that medication may help your depression, give it at least one month before deciding if it’s working or not. It can be frustrating but these medications do take time to take effect. Be patient. You know you are getting older when you have too much room in your house but not enough room in your medicine cabinet. If you aren’t sure if a medication is OK to keep, call our pharmacists. We can help.

Glen Valley farmhouse destroyed DAN FERGUSON Times Reporter
Police are now investigating the early morning blaze that completely destroyed an old farmhouse in the 8600 block of 256 Street in Langley on Thursday. The blaze was not discovered until about 4 a.m. when a tenant in another building at the farm heard dogs barking.
ADVERTORIAL
By the time the fire department arrived, the house had been burning for about 40 minutes. About 25 firefighters and seven trucks from four halls attended. The house is usually occupied, but no one was home at the time. No one was hurt, including the dogs. On Thursday, a spokesman for the fire department said there was no sign of anything suspi-

New drinking driving law unfair, judge rules DAN FERGUSON Times Reporter
An Abbotsford resident who says she was injured by a “aggressive� Langley RCMP officer during a drinking driving check stop has won a victory in B.C. Supreme Court. In a written decision, Justice T. Mark McEwan ruled that the new law that expands the police power to suspend a driver’s licence on the spot for suspected drinking was unfairly applied to Kristen Debra-Lee Spencer after she was pulled over by a Langley RCMP officer on Oct. 31, 2010 in the 24100 block of Fraser Highway. Spencer’s driving licence was seized and she was issued a 90-day suspension by Langley RCMP Const. Veronica Steiger for refusing to blow into a breath alcohol testing device. Spencer filed a challenge of the suspension with the Superintendent of Motor Vehicles, saying she never refused to blow, never told the officer she’d been drinking and could prove that she wasn’t consuming alcohol that evening. Her appeal was dismissed by an unnamed adjudicator who issued a written ruling Justice McEwan said was “..fundamen-
tally at odds with basic concepts of fairness and impartiality.� The adjudicator simply rejected Spencer’s evidence, including a doctor’s letter that she still suffers the after effects from a serious head injury that can make her appear confused when she is under stress. The adjudicator simply accepted officer Steiger’s claims as fact, the judge said, without subjecting them to the same level of scrutiny applied to Spencer. In the judgment, the adjudicator wrote “there is no reason for [Const.] Steiger to provide inaccurate evidence on this point whereas you have a vested interest in the outcome of this review.� “That is a flat statement of bias,� Justice McEwan said. The judge ordered the case re-heard by a different adjudicator who will not grant the police what McEwan described as a “credibility advantage� over an ordinary citizen. The judge said the case raises serious questions about the fairness of the process, noting a person challenging a speeding ticket has a right to a hearing before a trained justice of the peace, while someone charged with the more serious offence of impaired driving does not. “The compelling social objec-
tive of removing drinking drivers from the road cannot justify a process that is incapable of reliably differentiating between those who have and those who have not offended,� the judge said. Spencer has also sued the Langley Mountie and the provincial Solicitor General, saying Const. Steiger didn’t explain why she was being pulled over, simply produced the device and ordered her to blow. In her statement of claim, Spencer says an “aggressive� Steiger did not tell her failing to immediately blow would be considered a refusal. When Spencer asked for an explanation, she said she was then told about the rule. When Spencer then offered to take the breath test, she says Steiger refused, telling her “that option is off the table.� The statement of claim, filed in Surrey Provincial Court, contains unproven allegations. The lawsuit seeks compensation for injuries allegedly suffered when Steiger cuffed Spencer and put her in the police cruiser, including a fractured bone in one hand, bruising, shoulder and neck injuries, and a broken tooth as well as “emotional and mental trauma.�
Grim picture painted for City Legion BRENDA ANDERSON Times Reporter
A dire warning from the financial officer of the Langley Royal Canadian Legion Branch #21 paints a potentially grim picture for the organization’s future. “I foresee our doors closing in the very near future,� Jerry Gibbons wrote in the organization’s newsletter, 21 Gun Salute, last month. “Things will have to change drastically for our Legion to survive.� In 2010, as a cost-saving measure, the Legion downsized from its long-time location on Eastleigh Crescent to a smaller building on 56 Avenue. Even that move doesn’t appear to have solved the organization’s financial troubles. “Here we are one year later, and approximately $200,000 in the ‘red,’ something we did not expect or imagine,� wrote Gibbons. In that time, Gibbons added, Legion membership has dropped by 25 per cent. The newsletter also contains positive information about upcoming entertainment and awards, but peppered throughout are refer-
ences to the organization’s financial troubles and lack of support from its members. “It has been a very stressful year for myself and our executive,� wrote Gail Reid, president of the Legion branch. “We have many finance problems, so we cannot keep our doors open if we don’t make money.� Of the Legion’s 800 members, only about 50 are active and “support us all the time,� the president wrote in her remarks. The Ways and Means portion of the notice asks members to commit to donating $20 per month each. If that goal is realized, the newsletter states, “a critical position could become a positive one.� Member Mike Harvey sees at least a partial solution to the Legion’s financial woes in its annul poppy campaign. However, current national and provincial rules don’t allow any individual branch to benefit from sales of the lapel pins. “The law is now constituted that every dollar collected in the sale of poppies must go to charity. Not one penny is allowed to support any Legion Branch that
institutes the drive and ensures that members are out selling the poppies,� Harvey wrote in a letter to the editor of The Times (see page 7). “In numerous letters I have suggested that the law be amended so that a small proportion of the funds raised can support the Legion branch that implements the sale helping to ensure the branches survive so that the poppy drives can continue. Unfortunately both B.C. and Canadian Command chose to ignore my plea, without even the courtesy of reply.� Meanwhile, work on the new cenotaph in Douglas Park will continue as planned, irrespective of the Legion’s fate, said Langley City Mayor Peter Fassbender. With or without a local Legion branch, the City will continue to hold Remembrance Day services each November, but that won’t be the extent of the monument’s uses, he added. Fassbender sees the cenotaph as an ideal location for other public services of remembrance and celebration. The Times placed a call to Reid but did not hear back.

Presidents and protest
Zeal for the TV camera
P
L
rotesters are getting ready to take to the streets of Surrey on Thursday, to protest a visit by former U.S. president George W. Bush to the annual Surrey Economic Forum. While they are entitled to protest, as protest is an essential part of free speech, many of these protesters are quite hypocritical. They do not seem to have any problem that former U.S. president Bill Clinton is also on the agenda at the forum. Whether their fixation with Bush is due to the fact that one former president is a Republican and the other is a Democrat is unclear. What is clear is that Bush is the target. Some of the more off-base protesters insist that he should be arrested while in Surrey — stating that he is a “war criminal.” Such an inflammatory charge is frequently made, and it is often based on the fact that waterboarding and other forms of prisoner treatment by U.S. authorities at Guatanamo Bay, Cuba have been highly controversial. However, it is important to remember that such treatment has ended, at least partially because protesters have refused to let the issue go. It is also important to remember that the U.S. has been above-board about how it was trying to get information from prisoners held at the military base. Such open acknowledgement of prisoner treatment does not take place in many other parts of the world. Whether or not Bush bears some blame over how the U.S. treated some prisoners during his watch really has little to do with his appearance in Surrey. He was twice elected to the highest office in his country, and oversaw some very trying circumstances after Sept. 11, 2001, which really defined his presidency. Clinton too had issues he had to deal with on his watch, and many people weren’t happy with the way he handled some of them. Those who plan to attend the conference hope to learn some lessons about leadership, decisionmaking and the world economy from the two former presidents. It is significant that they are coming to Surrey, an up-and-coming city in its own right and the most important part of the region south of the Fraser. Peaceful protests are fine. However, it is also important that those who pay to hear two former presidents get to do so, without being impeded or assaulted by dissidents.

ike many politicians, Premier Christy Clark has never met a TV camera she didn’t like. She took her zeal for the lens to new levels when she suggested during the throne speech that television cameras should be allowed into courtrooms during the trials of those charged in the Stanley Cup riots. Clark said since they had no problem doing their crimes before the cameras, they would have no problem with their trials being in front of cameras, a statement that had some wondering if she hadn’t already convicted them before their day in court. Naturally, the New Democrats jumped on her suggestion. BurnabyDeer Lake MLA Kathy Corrigan, the party’s public safety critic, called Riot TV a gimmick. The premier insisted her suggestion wasn’t a political stunt because opening up the courts is part of opening up government. That may be the case, but her suggestion is arbitrary. If courtrooms are to be open to television cameras, is this not a change that should be debated in the legislature and other public forums? Cameras in the courtroom would constitute a major shift in justice policy in this country. The United States has allowed them for decades. There are many who believe it’s been a good thing because it’s made the justice system accountable. Others believe the cameras bring an artificially high level of melodrama that subverts the justice process. Theoretical logic aside, there is also the financial cost such a system would impose on a government already strapped to pay for basics like health, education and enough judges to keep the court system moving. Prosecuting the rioters is a hot button topic in these parts, and Clark recognizes that. However, her suggestion smacks of attempting to endear herself to the electorate without carrying out the proper process to make the change. —Burnaby News Leader (Black Press) The Langley Times is a member of the British Columbia Press Council, a self-regulatory body governing the province’s newspaper industry.

Vision, not studies, needed for Hopington Editor: In 1994, my wife and I decided to look for an acreage property to purchase, where we could raise our family. We also looked for a property with subdivision potential, to build accommodation for our children and grandchildren in the future. We found a piece of property that fit those requirements. After inquiring at Langley Township municipal hall, we were told that the property was not in the ALR and was located in the GVRD catchment area for sewer and water. The property was also located a couple of properties away from Peterson Road Elementary School, one property away from Fraser Highway (now serviced by sewer) and was within walking distance of D.W. Poppy Secondary. After talking to staff, the future for the property seemed obvious, so we sold our residence in Surrey and started planning the move. A moratorium was put in place within a year of us moving onto the property. Almost 17 years have now passed since we purchased our property, and the moratorium is
still in effect. Now I understand that council is getting a legal opinion on whether or not it can turn the moratorium into a bylaw to prevent any development from happening above the Hopington Aquifer. There have been numerous studies and reports generated regarding the water quantity and quality on the Hopington Aquifer. I have read all of these reports and a few things are apparent to me.The water level in the aquifer is dropping.The water quality in some areas of the aquifer has deteriorated. According to the April 2000 Gartner Lee report, private residential wells only account for approximately 22 per cent of the ground water extraction on the aquifer. According to the June 1998 Gartner Lee report, 66.8 per cent of nitrates entering the aquifer are attributed to hobby and commercial farms. Farmers in the area are afforded certain rights under right to farm legislation which take precedent over our local bylaws. The Township is powerless to stop farms from developing on the Hopington Aquifer. Since
these reports have been published, much more farmland has been planted with crops that require irrigation. Langley has a rich farming heritage and productive farms are important to our community. I thought council was going in the right direction by bringing the sewer trunk line to Aldergrove through the Hopington Aquifer and supporting construction of the new water main to Gloucester through the Hopington Aquifer. This would allow residents in the area to eventually hook up to services and relieve some of the pressure on groundwater in the area. There has also been approval of a small development of half-acre lots in the area of 56 Avenue and 240 Street, subject to water hook-ups becoming available. I thought that our dream of building residences for our family on our three-acre property was getting a lot closer. I was disappointed when I read that council is now considering putting a bylaw in place that would stop all subdivision until more studies are done. We have had
16 years of studies while paying substantial property taxes for no services such as sewer, water and fire hydrants. I thought the answer was obvious. Water hook-ups prevent water from being removed from the aquifer. Sewer hook-ups prevent effluent from being discharged over the aquifer. The Salmon River Uplands, located above the Hopington Aquifer, were partially developed into half-acre and one-acre lots years ago. Why not infill the areas that remain with similar lots that would not take away from the rural feel of the community. The Salmon River Uplands were designated for development decades ago. Unfortunately, our elected council seems unwilling to come up with a vision for the Salmon River Uplands for fear of the response they will receive from environmentally-biased individuals. Instead, they avoid making a decision by saying they require more studies. Tod McGovern, Langley
Legion has done much good, but needs more support Editor: I received a pathetic letter from Branch 21, the Royal Canadian Legion, briefly stating this branch is fast going broke, due to past bad business decisions and the present day lack of support by the dwindling membership. This is a sad state of affairs, as the Legion has done much good in the community. Each year, the sale of poppies brings in thousands of dollars, all of which goes to charity. Noting how my fellow Second World War vets are quickly fading away, I have taken pains to write to Legion Command concerning the problem. The practice, as now constituted, is that
every dollar collected in the sale of poppies must go to charity. Not one penny is allowed to support any Legion branch that institutes the drive and ensures that members are out selling the poppies. In numerous letters, I have suggested that this be amended, so that a small proportion of the funds raised can support the Legion branch that implements the sale, This would help ensure the branches survive, so that the poppy drives can continue. Unfortunately, both B.C. and Dominion Command chose to ignore my plea, without even the courtesy of reply. I have also suggested that a book I have
have on a couple of occasions commanded parades on Nov. 11, which is within my capability. My old comrades have faded away, so the recollection over a pint or two of beer is no longer a possibility. What’s more, the new drinking driving laws make me hesitant to so. I feel very sorry for the fine people who do their utmost the keep the Legion going in downtown Langley. I don’t believe their chances of success are good under present conditions. Mike Harvey, Langley

No reply on this, although I have recounted the success LAPS has had with my books sold for their benefit. I’ve been a Legion member for a number of years. I admit I do not use the facilities as I should, as I am not a dancer, a card player or bingo enthusiast. I have not volunteered my services in running the establishment either, as I am a particularly ineffective business man. I
Langley dispensary serves a vital need in community Editor: I am writing this letter to you in hopes that you can help me. I am a mother of four children, and an employee in the City of Langley. I am also a student and a law-abiding and contributing member of our community. A year ago my doctor recommended the use of medicinal marijuana for treating some of my health issues. I was having terrible side effects from the medications I had been using and was open to trying anything to reduce my symptoms. I had lost 70 pounds within six months and was having tremors and terrible stomach problems from the medications I was on. I contacted the Langley Medical Marijuana Dispensary, after reading an article in the newspaper about them. I appreciated how I could potentially gain access to safe affordable medicine. I met with them and began the process to become a member. Like the pharmaceuticals I was prescribed, it was a process figuring out which types of cannabis worked best for The
me. The people at the LMMD were very helpful and knowledgeable and I felt relief from many of my symptoms almost immediately. What I liked most about the LMMD was that I was able to buy edibles and didn’t have to smoke my medicine. I began the long, arduous process to obtain a federal exemption, although I had my doctor’s support. I would need to see a specialist before my application could be submitted. This included an eight-month wait to see a specialist to confirm the need for medical cannabis. Finally I had all the documentation needed, and my doctors supported me in my application to grow and use medicinal cannabis. It will be probably another six to eight weeks before my permit and licence arrive, and then it will take time to grow my own medicine. Since the LMMD was raided, I have experienced a lot of anxiety and frustration with this system. I ask you to please tell
me where I am able to get safe affordable medicine while I wait. When the LMMD was raided, it made me feel like I was a criminal. The rulings by the highest courts have found the medicinal marijuana program to be full of problems, and while it has taken me more than 15 months to be able to send in my supported application, I still wait. Where in the meantime am I supposed to be obtaining my medication? I am left to either go to other community dispensaries to get my medicine, or buy from the street. Even if I ordered from Health Canada, it would take several months. I refuse to contribute to the possible profits of gangs, so buying off the streets isn’t an option for me. I have basically been forced to pay toll bridge fees to cross over to Maple Ridge to the dispensary in that community. There is the cost of the gas and the tolls, and it is not very convenient for me. Why am I, a law-abiding Canadian citizen with ill health, being criminalized for
obtaining medication that is helping me and is prescribed to me? Please support the reopening of the LMMD in our community. It is the only humane and compassionate thing to do. Allowing flawed government programs to criminalize those most marginalized in our society by discouraging, disallowing, or raiding us of our medication is unacceptable. Cannabis was an accepted form of medicine for 3,000 years; I would say that should count for more than the 70 or so years it wasn’t allowed to be called medicine. I have many family members in law enforcement. Some have told me they would prefer I go to a dispensary than grow for myself due to the risk of home invasion. I really cannot wait for 2014 when Health Canada plans to make the muchneeded changes to their program. I ask readers to help reduce my pain, and that of many others. Donna Deneumoustier, Langley

Cody seeking third term Langley City school trustee Stacey Cody is seeking a third term on Nov. 19. She is seeking one of the two City seats on the Langley Board of Education. She says the public needs to elect trustees who will focus on student success, not political gamesmanship. “I get quite emotional about this. It’s embarrassing that the B.C. Auditor-General had to come into Langley to instruct trustees on how to get along with each other. That shouldn’t be necessary. We must do better. Serving as a trustee should be about students and families, not personal one-upmanship,” says Cody. “We have limited resources. All of our energy must go into doing the best we can to build and improve public education, because education is the foundation of both a strong economy where our children can succeed, and a healthy, Stacey democratic society.We must never Cody lose sight of that common goal. And that means we must all work together — teachers, parents, trustees and staff — to do our best for Langley students.” Cody has been active in the B.C. School Trustees Association (BCSTA), which represents trustees provincewide. She has recently been elected by her peers in other school districts as president of the BCSTA’s Fraser Valley Branch, and previously served for two years as vice-president. Both are unpaid volunteer positions. “The BCSTA is an important vehicle to improve education, not only in Langley, but in every community in B.C. By working together through the BCSTA, trustees are able to bring forward their ideas on education policies, and present them to government with a unified voice,” says Cody. At the community level, she has participated on many boards, committees and projects to enhance and advocate for early literacy, public education, youth at risk, and measures to address homelessness. She has also served as the Board of Education’s representative on the Langley City Advisory Planning Commission, the Parks and Recreation Board, and the Recreation, Culture and Public Art Advisory Committee. “Being a trustee is a wonderful opportunity to contribute to our community. I am asking for voters’ support to continue that work — with hope,determination and love — to make Langley an even better place for our children and grandchildren to grow, learn and succeed,” she says.

A $1.7 million facelift for one wing of the Langley campus of Kwantlen Polytechnic University features a “gathering place” for students. The refurbished west wing of the Langley campus student services area was officially opened Thursday (Oct. 13). Students were already gathered at the tables and sofas and side nooks, surfing the web, studying and just hanging out while Langley MP Mark Warawa, and Naomi Yamamoto, Minister of Advanced Education, joined executive, faculty, staff and students in a side room for the grand opening. “Kwantlen Polytechnic University is proud to showcase this beautifully renovated space specifically designed to meet the needs of our students and the departments that serve them,” said John McKendry, acting president of Kwantlen Polytechnic University. “It has benefited Kwantlen enormously in upgrading the Langley campus to support our role as a polytechnic university.” It was jointly funded by the provincial and federal governments through the Knowledge Infrastructure Program to repair and expand research and educational facilities at post-secondary institutions.

James eyes third term on Langley City Council Incumbent says six years of experience has given her an understanding of City’s needs Staff Reporter
City of Langley Councillor Teri James announced today that she will be seeking her third term on City Council in the November municipal elections. “As a result of my six years on council and my continued involvement in our community, I have gained a genuine understanding of the needs and challenges facing our City,” said James. “I will continue to represent the people in this community and bring the knowledge and experience necessary to deal with the issues facing the City of Langley, and make responsible decisions as they arise.” James currently serves on a number of City and community committees, as chair, vice chair, director and City liaison. These include the Community Day Committee, Langley Christmas Bureau, Local Government Awareness Day, Langley Seniors Resource Society, Community Grant Committee, Recreation, Culture and Public Art Advisory Committee, Fraser Valley Regional Library, Magic of Christmas Parade Committee, Police Advisory Committee, Douglas Park Community School Society and the Arts Alive Festival. Emphasis on public safety and crime prevention continues to be a priority for James. It is important as an elected official, she said, to strive for a balance that keeps taxes as low as possible while allowing for continued economic development. Long range fiscal planning is essential in order

to keep costs down in the community so the City of Langley can continue to be debt free, she added. “This is what will keep the community vibrant and maintain the quality of life for our residents for years to come.” First elected in 2005, James describes her first six years on council as “very rewarding, because I have listened to and as a result have learned more about the people in this community than I ever thought
possible”. She cites several initiatives from the past six years, including the expansion of Al Anderson Pool, the Fraser Highway Bridge project and being part of the prudent use of Casino revenues for capital projects. This includes the essential repair and replacement of the City’s aging infrastructure and providing input towards community grants that enhance the community in so many ways. Among the challenges she sees the City facing in the next three years is the continued “battle of the taxes,” as many of the costs to citizens are being downloaded from other levels of government — a trend she calls “very frustrating.” Over the next three years, James said she believes that the City of Langley will see a greatly improved public transportation system and a recreation facility at the Timms site that will rival those in much larger communities. She vowed to continue to work towards a revitalized downtown and improved infrastructure that will put the City of Langley in a position as one of the most desirable communities to live in the Lower Mainland.

Students from Walnut Grove Secondary in Langley arrived on the shores of Kanaka Creek Park Tuesday morning to learn about salmon and the environment. Starting out at the Fort Langley Canoe Club, four classes along with four teachers paddled to the park in nine canoes to meet Ross Davies of KEEPS who talked to the students on the topic for 15 minutes before the students climbed back into their canoes and paddled away. The class is called The Edge Academy and is offered to Grade 11 students in good standing at the school. The class allows the students to do the subjects of social studies, biology, English and physical education in an outdoor

New Langley school now online And on time and on budget, school board told DAN FERGUSON Times Reporter
The still-under-construction Lynn Fripps Elementary School in Langley launched its website on Friday (Oct. 14).

It will also have a Neighbourhood Learning Centre. An extra 550 square metres was added to the school in the form of three classrooms, a larger gymnasium and a community office space to accommodate the centre activities. Guy said public consultations are underway to decide how best to use the space.

Cole Armour to appear on Ellen show today A young Langley singer who’s been creating a fair amount of buzz on the local music scene is about to take a step into a whole other stratosphere. Twelve-year-old Cole Amour will make an appearance on the Ellen DeGeneres show today, Tuesday, Oct. 18.
The wildly popular U.S. daytime talk show’s website confirmed last week that the Langley singer will be a guest on the program that day, along with actors Emilio Estevez and Martin Sheen. “An amazing 12-year-old singer named Cole Armour is here to make his first tele-
vision appearance, and it definitely won’t be his last. “This is one talent you’ll have to see to believe,” the website announcement reads. Locally, the Ellen DeGeneres Show airs weekdays at 2 p.m. on CTV.

“Tradition” triumphs in TWU’s anniversary season of theatre classics and crowd-pleasers, from Romeo and Juliet to Fiddler on the Roof.
A season of ‘pleasing’ theatre ahead

Because when your world prospers, so do you. Find out how at vancity.com Make Good Money (TM) is a trademark of Vancouver City Savings Credit Union.
In honour of Trinity Western University’s upcoming 50th Anniversary in 2012, the School of the Arts, Media and Culture (SAMC) has lined up a celebratory season of crowd-pleasing theatre to suit the mood. Celebrating first with a romance for all time by the greatest playwright of all time, TWU presents Romeo and Juliet, beginning today, Oct. 18, and running to Oct. 29. Proving that everything old can be new again, this timeless tragedy hits home in an imaginative, contemporary setting. Shakespeare’s words are familiar and accessible in a production that illuminates all of the play’s laughter, tears, and inspiration. To ring in the Christmas season, The Farndale Christmas Carol offers an irreverent romp through Dickens’ classic. In this play-within-a-play, a theatre troupe of delightfully clumsy women take on the story of Scrooge. Bah, handbag! Running Nov. 23 to Dec. 3, this holiday favourite is a festive farce that proves disastrously funny. Rounding out the “something old, something new” adage is the world premiere of a romantic comedy called Bride on Credit, commissioned from Langley’s budding playwright Cara Lowdermilk. A straight and narrow accountant finds his life turned upside down thanks to a stolen credit card and the subsequent arrival of a mail-order bride on his doorstep. He’s not sure what will be harder, sending the package back, or explaining the situation to his girlfriend. Chaos ensues Jan. 31 to Feb. 4. The season’s grand finale marks the return of “tradition, tradition!” in the musical that celebrated TWU’s 25th Anniversary in 1987 — Fiddler on the Roof — playing March 13 to 31, 2012. A co-production with SAMC Music, the show will feature SAMC’s finest musicians, actors, and singers. It’s an unforgettable favourite sure to send the audience humming all the way home. For show information and tickets, visit www.twu.ca/theatre or email theatre@twu.ca.

Taking care of business As the music industry changes, Ryan McAllister is adapting in an effort to stay a step ahead KURT LANGMANN Black Press
After his band Dakona became another casualty of a faltering music industry, Ryan McAllister has adapted by opening his own small recording studio.
TALKING TOLKIEN Trinity Western University will host author and scholar Matthew Dickerson on Oct. 19 and 20, as part of the University Distinguished Lecture Series. The series is designed to introduce students and the general public to some of the most profound Christian thinkers of our time. Dickerson will give two talks in TWU chapel services: Three Faces of Evil in the Lord
of the Rings on Oct. 19, and Merlin & the N.I.C.E.: Environmental Implications of C. S. Lewis’ Response to Naturalism on Oct. 20. These talks are open to the public. On Wednesday, Oct. 19, Dickerson will also give an evening lecture in TWU’s Northwest auditorium about Wendell Berry, C. S. Lewis, & J. R. R. Tolkien: The Dangers of a Technological Mindset.
Arts briefs
It’s been a tumultuous decade for the music industry, one in which the traditional business model was turned on its head. The proliferation of music freely distributed on the internet has devastated the sales of recorded music and many once-strong CD retail chains have either shuttered their doors or downsized and sought out other sources of revenues.This, in turn, has resulted in down-sizing at the major record labels, where the shrinking bottom lines have cut jobs and artist rosters. One of these casualties was Dakona, a band led by Ryan McAllister that had signed a multi-million dollar contract with Madonna’s Maverick Records label. Dakona’s sound was compared favourably with Irish superstars U2 and shortly after recording their debut album and touring extensively to promote it, the axe suddenly fell at Maverick. “We caught the tail-end of that meltdown 10 years ago,” says McAllister in an interview at his home in Bradner. “The whole industry is trying to find its bearings. It’s an interesting time; everybody that’s bigger can’t handle their overheads. “And there is a giant sea of independent musicians on-line, trying to get noticed. But it’s had its good sides too; it weeded out the people who weren’t in it for the right reasons and the people who are left are really passionate about their art.” McAllister says he’s grateful that he was able to invest a big chunk of the money he got from the Maverick deal to install a professional recording studio inside a converted barn on his family’s acreage. He’s taken the knowledge he gleaned from working with the top engineers and producers and parlayed it into building his home-based business at Five Acres Studio. “When we were recording at Capitol Studios in L.A. we were spending $15,000 a day, and that kind of pressure is counter-productive to creativity,” says McAllister. He is able to provide this service at considerably less cost at Five Acres and he’s engineered and produced albums for local artists such as Daniel Huscroft and Prairie Dance Club, as well as for his own music. This year he released his first solo album, Music for a Rainy Town, as well as another with his trio, Cowboys and Indians. “I wanted a (recording studio) space with ambience to it that is a big step up from the typical home studio,” says McAllister.
All events are open to the public. For further information on the Chapel Talks and public lecture, contact Bill Strom, Ph.D., at strom@ twu.ca.
TRIO IN TUNE Langley Community Music School will feature its own Faculty Trio at the next Concerts Café Classico performance on Oct. 23. A pre-concert coffee
The quality of the studio’s sound is readily evident on McAllister’s solo album, as is the maturity of his songwriting. “Having kids changes your view,” says the 33-year-old father of three pre-schoolers. “I do miss it a bit, being young and obsessed, but I’m so much happier where I’m at. “Now the real challenge is how many songs can you write about being happily married?” he jokes. “Songs that are not too sweet and corny, but authentic and listenable.There’s a shortage of that. Youthful infatuation is so much easier to write about.” One of the album’s songs, This Black Heart, has been getting a fair amount of play and it helped put him in the top 10 for the Shore (104.3 FM) Song Search contest earlier this year. Bell Tower and River Jordan have also proved popular among his fans, and Mystery White Boy is under consideration for use in the forthcoming documentary movie about the late singer Jeff Buckley. “It’s the oldest song on the album. I wrote it in Toronto just after getting our record deal and first hearing Jeff Buckley. Just a couple days after getting his first CD, Grace, I found out he’d drowned in Memphis,” says McAllister. “His mother heard the song and invited me over to dinner (in California) and said she could maybe use it in the movie that’s now in development.” Selling songs for use in movies has been a growing niche market for many musicians and one that McAllister has been pursuing. It was the main thrust of his appearance at the South by Southwest (SXSW) music festival in Austin, Texas earlier this year, alongside another local colleague, Zaac Pick. “We have no delusions of grandeur,” McAllister says of the close circle of musical friends he works with. “We’re blue collar and realize there’s not a lot of money to be made. We love it and that’s enough.” However, he is developing a website he calls the Starving Musicians Union (starvingmusiciansunion.com) as “a way to network with each other, booking players into gigs; just trying to provide more work for musicians and artists.” He will also be traveling through California this month, performing in colleges and promoting his CD at radio stations. The public can sample selections from Music for a Rainy Town at his website (wp.ryanmcallister. com) and the website also has a link to a video feature by Firecanvas Productions on his Five Acres Studio. “I’m really a lighthearted guy, but my songs are serious and so is my approach to the business.The sad truth is that so many people get tired of their songs or have no desire to sell it and themselves,” said McAllister. “You have to want to love it to make it in this business. “Yes, you need an ego but preferably ego without the arrogance.”

SPECIAL GUEST: JAMES HILL
LANGLEY UKULELE 3O YEARS
S
ong and dance, laughter and tears — not to mention a whole host of volunteer efforts on the home front — are at the heart of Langley Players’ upcoming production of a distinctly Canadian drama. Set during the Second World War, John Murrell’s Waiting for the Parade, tells the stories of five Calgary women whose lives are profoundly affected as they survive the “waiting” with intelligence, strength and a joyful approach to life. The play unfolds through a series of vignettes, as the women come together to sing songs and make care packages for soldiers. “They’re finding ways of not sitting at home and waiting,” explains Amber Inglis, who plays Catherine, a young woman whose husband Billy enlists in the army and is overseas for the duration of the war. The characteristics that best define Catherine
are her strong will and passion for life, said Inglis, a drama teacher at D.W. Poppy Secondary. Left to care for her one-year-old child alone while her husband is away, Catherine is determined to carrying on living life to the fullest. “She’s a fighter, she’s fearless.” One of the characters — Eve— is a teacher, but Inglis decided she didn’t want to play a woman whose life is too much like her own, preferring instead to connect on an emotional level, which she did with Catherine. “She’s different enough from me that I thought it would be a challenge,” Inglis said of her character. Waiting for the Parade is not a musical, per se, but the performers sing many of the songs that were popular during the war. It’s another first for Inglis, even though she teaches musical theatre. “That was one of the main things that drew me,” she said. continued, PAGE 25

“It’s exciting for me, because I do expect that out of my students. It opened my eyes to what they go through.” Over the past five years, Inglis has tried to perform in one play a year, working it around her students’ schedule. Waiting for the Parade marks her first time on stage with the Langley Players, after treading the boards with Bard on the Bandstand and Emerald Pig Theatre Company in her former hometown of Maple Ridge. Angela Bell, meanwhile, is something of a fixture at the Langley Players’ little theatre in Brookswood. Having been involved — both on stage and behind the scenes— with no fewer than 18 previous productions, Bell now takes on the role of Marta, a young German woman, whose heritage and experience mirror that of Bell’s mother, to whom the actress dedicates her performance. During the course of the play, Marta is harassed and abused for her German heritage, which she has gone to great lengths to disguise. “She’s tried to Canadianize herself, she has no accent,” explained Bell. However, Marta can’t let go of her homeland entirely, often listening and singing along to German music. For some, however, her background is unforgivable, and despite the fact she has lived in Calgary for 25 years, Marta is tormented — sauerkraut is deposited in her mailbox and swastikas are scrawled on her windows. It wasn’t until she’d earned the role that Bell learned about her own mother’s similar ill treatment. “I was telling my dad I’d been cast in the role and how she was alienated because she was German,” she said. Although Bell’s mother came to Canada in the late 1950s, emotion was still running high from the war in Europe and the stigma of her German heritage followed her. One of her teachers “treated her like garbage” because members of the teacher’s family had died (in the war), Bell’s father told her. “I just burst into tears when he told me that. I thought, ‘I’ll use that in my performance.’ “I’m getting in touch with certain emotions and hoping the performance rings true.” One of the main challenges she faces in her performance is mastering a foreign language — in song at least. “I sing in German (in the play) and I don’t speak German,” said Bell. “I’m learning to pronounce German words properly because I want to pay respect to (the language) and not crucify it.” The show also features some great songs in English that were popular during the war years — including White Cliffs of Dover and Lili Marlene — which Bell expects will be especially touching for older members of the audience. Director Helen Embury is confident that audiences will be moved by the women who strove daily to make the best of bad situation. “You will leave the theatre celebrating all the

wonderful women who went before us and faced an unknown future with courage and humour,” she said. Producer Leslie Gaudette, meanwhile, is quick to give credit to the team of volunteers who have worked together for months to bring the play life, including stage manager Gordon Mantle of White Rock and music director Diane Gendron of Langley. “A huge range of creative talent and historical research goes into mounting a production like this one,” said Gaudette. “Team members have spent hours online, reading reference books and even visiting the Canadian War Museum in Ottawa to research costumes, windows, sound effects, leg paint and Canada’s effort in the war.” • Waiting for the Parade runs Thursdays to Sundays from Oct. 20 to Nov. 19 at the Langley Playhouse, 4307 200 St. in Brookswood. Show times are 8 p.m. Thursday, Friday and Saturday, with Sunday matinees at 2 p.m. All tickets are $15. Reserve at 604-534-7469 or online at reservations@langleyplayers.com. Visit www.langleyplayers.com for more information.
Casting call Just as the Langley Players’ 2011-12 season opens with a Second World War-era drama on stage of the Langley Playhouse, the club is preparing to step even further back in time. On Oct. 22, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. the theatre company will hold auditions for the role of William Scott, for the winter production, Victoria’s House. Set on the British coast in the early 1900s, Victoria’s House is a supernatural tale of murder and madness, which begins when Neil Bannister kills his young wife and thinks he has committed the perfect crime. Soon, however, he is haunted by supernatural phenomena that are beyond his understanding. Auditions for the role of Scott, which requires a male between the ages of 35 and 40 who can speak the “Queen’s English,” will take place at the playhouse, 4307 200 St. Because the role is being recast the day before rehearsals are scheduled to begin, director Angela Bell said whoever gets the role “has to be prepared to jump right in.” It is an open call and auditioners will be seen in the order of arrival. Auditions will consist of reading sides from the script. Actors are asked to bring resume and headshot to the audition. Production dates will be Thursday to Saturday evenings and Sunday matinees, from Jan. 19 to Feb. 18, with a possible holdover Feb. 23-25. A rehearsal calendar and script will be available at the audition or as requested. Come prepared with a list of any and all dates that you are not available. For information, contact Bell (angela@ langleyplayers.com).

Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s No Place Like Home Jo-Ann Martin She sang you to sleep, taught you how to tie your shoes, made chicken soup when you were sick and cheered you on at the game. You knew she was there for you, no matter what. Now you want to be there for her. Whether youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re caring for your mom, your dad or both parents, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re here to help. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no place like home, and Home Instead Senior CareÂŽ was created to help seniors remain safely in the comfort of home and to provide support to the family and friends who love them. An overwhelming majority of seniors (86 percent) want to continue living at home for as long as possible. 54 percent of seniors who live alone are four times more likely to use professional care than those who live with their children and 42 percent over the age of 80 rely on professionals. What could be the signs to a senior or a family member or health professional that says an otherwise healthy older adult requires more assistance to remain safely, independently and with dignity, at home? The following are indicators to watch for that might say itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time to ask for help â&#x20AC;&#x201C; for you or for a loved one.
â&#x20AC;˘ Household bills piling up. Seniors often feel overwhelmed by the simple task of opening and responding to daily mail. A pile of unpaid bills
or correspondence is an alarming sign that could require a family caregiver to intervene immediately in the best interest of a loved one.

â&#x20AC;˘ Reluctance to leave the house. Rather than ask for help, seniors who are having trouble with such functions as walking, remembering, and hearing will pull away from their community and isolate themselves. â&#x20AC;˘ Losing interest in meals and eating. Seniors who suddenly find themselves alone, perhaps after the death of a spouse, can be easily discouraged by such tasks as cooking and tend not to eat properly. They may resort to junk food or you may find spoiled food in their fridge. â&#x20AC;˘ Declining personal hygiene. Changes in appearance, such as unkempt hair and body odour, failing to change clothes for days on end, or clothes inappropriate for the weather, are among the most obvious signs that a senior needs assistance. This could also be a sign of depression. â&#x20AC;˘ Declining driving skills. Look for evidence of parking or speeding tickets, accidents, dents and scratches on the car. continued on next page

Langley Meals on Wheels Community Programs Lilianne Fuller We can do more! said Dave Stark, Executive Director for Langley Meals on Wheels. Dave took the helm of Meals On Wheels on October 1, 2009 and felt that, with his extensive experience working in the public and non-profit sectors, working within the well established community organization they could do more. Passionate about developing relationships he has made the most of the partnerships already in place. He has also sought to further develop and expand new ones. “Partnerships allow us to do more with less in our community, “ he said.
Today there is more to Meals on Wheels than the name implies. No longer simply a meal delivery program, this Langley institution has branched out in the past year and is doing lots of work in the community. One of the newer initiatives is the Food & Friends Social Meal program.
Who said retirement living couldn’t be fun? ...like to garden, work on your favorite crafts, exercise, bingo, bus outings, parties? Are you looking for the freedom to get involved in those activities you just didn’t have time for? Now is the time to just have some great fun, in a caring and professional atmosphere that will offer you a worry free and relaxing and affordable lifestyle.
Magnolia Gardens delivers it all! Now renting. Call 604 514-1210 today to arrange a tour of Magnolia Gardens.
5840 Glover Road, Langley M AG NOL I A GARDENS
Food & Friends was launched in February 2010 and is extremely popular. For the very affordable price of $3.00 seniors and older adults can meet for a nutritious meal, enjoy some good company and listen to an informative speaker. The program began in Walnut Grove and has now branched out to include five other locations. Food & Friends programs can be found in Aldergrove, Langley City, Murrayville, Fort Langley and Brookswood. Resulting from the earlier meetings of Food & Friends a new idea sprung up and the Reminiscing, Recipes and Remedies project was born. Food and sociability are commonalities and this project will ultimately become a book coordinated by some of Langley’s well known personalities. Seniors have interviewed other seniors about their lives using food as a focal point. It will include stories, old remedies and recipes. The book will be a collection of anecdotes of life in days gone by and should be available by the end of November, just in time for Christmas.

More than Meals — Great News For Seniors This month another exciting monthly program kicked off. Using the model of the popular Harvest Box, Senior’s Healthy Living Bags offer seniors an excellent mix of fruit and vegetables for only $5.00 and until supplies last, the bags will also contain a recipe box with tips for healthy living. Tip cards will then be included every month after. This project is made possible because of a collaboration between the Langley Seniors Resource Centre Society, Kwantlen Polytechnic University, the City of Langley and the Fraser Health Authority. “This project couldn’t happen without community partnerships,” said Stark. “These bags will have an impact for years to come”, he noted. This program is available on a pick up basis, but if a shut in wants to participate, they aren’t forgotten. Some of the same volunteer drivers who bring the hot meals are also available to deliver the bag and visit with socially isolated seniors.

Brookswood Seniors Centre â&#x20AC;&#x201C; A Brief History By Sheila Stach Our Brookswood Seniorsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Centre has been around for quite some time. Actually, it was formed in October, 1974, by a delightful lady named Alice Hood. She is no longer with us, but we have very fond memories of her and her husband, Alex. They started with a very small group at the Civic Centre in the Brookswood area. The group soon grew and grew and after a year or so they decided to find larger premises. After a little â&#x20AC;&#x153;gentleâ&#x20AC;? persuasion, Langley Municipality came up with
an offer of a former Mennonite Church on 36th Avenue. The municipality would purchase the building and then lease it to the seniors. By then, the group numbered over 100 and they gladly accepted the offer and immediately went to work to make it suitable to their needs. Much time and effort was involved along with money-raising activities such as bazaars, raffles, and flea markets. After about five years and an everincreasing membership, it was decided to

expand the building. A huge money-raising campaign was begun, and with much help from New Horizons, Local Service Club, B.C. Lottery Fund, Langley Legion, and individual donations, $150,000 was raised. Many more hours of hard work ensued with painting, building tables, making curtains and on and on. Finally in 1982 the new annex was officially opened. Our dear Alice Hood, the mayor and local MLA presided at the ceremonies. It was a very happy day for Brookswood Seniors! An executive of 12 members carried on the business of the club with monthly executive and general meetings, a system that still is carried on today. A choir was also formed under the direction of Alex Hood, as well as many other activities such as carpet bowling, crafts, shuffleboard, card games and bingo, carried on on Tuesdays and Thursdays and Friday evening. Though our membership has diminished drastically in recent years, we strive to carry on as our dear Alice would have wanted. We are proud to be a part of the BCOAPO, too. We are Branch #132 and have tried to be involved in Regional Meetings and Conventions throughout the years. We send our congratulations BCOAPO

Gold Rush hits the hardwood GARY AHUJA Times Sports
The Gold Rush has hit Langley. While the original gold rush more than 150 years ago took place along the banks of the Fraser River, this Gold Rush can be found at Trinity Western University. More specifically, in the university’s gymnasium on Sunday evenings. The Langley Gold Rush, a junior wheelchair basketball program, began practising earlier this month. “The idea is to get the sport out into communities and try to identify potential athletes for the provincial and federal programs,” said Mitch Kosterman, who is running the Langley team. “As well as introduce the sport to people just to use as recreation and health reasons.” “And for the kids to have fun,” he added. The Langley program is one of two new ones in the Fraser Valley, with the other in Chilliwack. They join existing programs in Surrey, New Westminster and Richmond in the Lower Mainland, Prince George, Kamloops and Kelowna, and Victoria, Nanaimo, Comox and Powell River. The programs are run under the umbrella of the B.C. Wheelchair Basketball Society. Kosterman was instrumental in helping establish the Langley regional program in order for his 13-year-old son, Jack, to have somewhere to play hoops. Jack, an avid hoops fan and athlete, has slipped capitol femoral epiphyis, a condition where the ball of the hip joint is separated from the femur at the upper growing end of the bone. While Jack can walk — he has pins in his hips — he cannot do so without difficulty, so playing sports is a challenge. He has also competed in wheelchair tennis and sledge hockey

The players are members of the Langley Gold Rush, who play on Sunday evenings at Trinity Western University. and plans on doing para-nordic skiing this winter. He represented B.C. at the Canada Winter Games in 2011 in wheelchair basketball and has his sights set on even loftier goals: playing the sport at the Paralympic Games, possibly as early as 2016 at the Brazil. “There was nothing for him in Langley and we were doing a whole lot of driving for basketball,” Kosterman said.“He needed to have a place to play, a team. “It is a personal thing for me, because of my son, but I also want to bring it to anyone who is interested.” There are 14 players currently signed up for the Langley program,
ranging in age from 10 to their early 20s. What makes wheelchair basketball unique is that it is not restricted to who can play as able-bodied athletes can also compete. “We don’t turn away anyone,” Kosterman said. Five of the 14 Gold Rush players are able-bodied athletes. Able-bodied athletes can play up to the provincial level, but cannot compete internationally. The Langley program does not play against other teams, rather, they spend 90 minutes of Sundays competing against one another. Kosterman did not rule out the

possibility of that happening down the road. “At this point, we have set more modest goals: get kids playing, get them in jerseys, give them a team name, set up some game nights,” he explained. “That is where we are right now.” He also thanked Trinity Western for their donation of the gym time. The program runs Sundays from 6:30 to 8 p.m. until Dec. 4, except for Nov. 6. It is for players ages 8 and up with no experience necessary and the cost is $5 for drop-in sessions.

The years of sacrifice and hard work have resulted in a life-long dream for a local athlete. Langley’s Dorothy Ludwig shot her way to the gold medal in women’s 10-metre air pistol shooting at the Pan American Games in Guadalajara, Mexico. And in addition to the first-place finish, the 32-year-old Ludwig qualified to represent Canada at the 2012 Olympic Games in London. “I’ve been shooting for over 18 years and you commit a lot of time and make a lot of sacrifices in order to maintain the training and the discipline that you need in order to compete at an international level,” she said. “It’s hard work, but it’s worth it in the end. “I’ve been trying to get to this point for a number of years now, so if feels good to be here.” Ludwig’s score of 476.8 was only 0.1 ahead of the silver medalist, Maribel Pineda from Venezuela.

Rams pull off upset, advance to title game GARY AHUJA Times Sports
Marissa BAECKER/shootthebreeze.ca
Langley Rams’ receiver Daniel English (#7) catches a pass over Okanagan Sun defensive back Wyatt Smith during Sunday’s semifinal game at Kelowna’s Apple Bowl. English caught two touchdown passes as the Rams upset the Sun 31-29 to advance to the B.C. Junior Football Conference title game.
It is only fitting that the Langley RamsOkanagan Sun semifinal playoff game went down to the wire. After all, the two B.C. Junior Football Conference rivals met twice during the regular season and the games came down to the final seconds, with the Sun winning both times. So with seven seconds left in Sunday’s semifinal at Kelowna’s Apple Bowl, the Suns lined up for a two-point conversion, which would have forced overtime. Rams head coach Jeff Alamolhoda, who doubles as the team’s defensive co-ordinator, was worried, wanting to make sure he had accounted for anything the Sun may try. “My heart was racing,” he admitted. “It was in my throat.” The Rams stopped the Okanagan attempt and then recovered the Sun’s last-ditch attempt, an onside kick. And with that, Langley won 31-29 to advance to the league’s championship game this Saturday in Nanaimo against the undefeated Vancouver Island Raiders. Against the Sun, quarterback Jon Roney threw four touchdown passes — two apiece to receivers Nick Downey and Daniel English — and kicker Nick Naylor added four converts and a field goal. The Rams never trailed, leading 10-0 after one quarter, and then hanging on. “In order for us to pull out a win, we would need to execute for 60 minutes,”
Alamolhoda said. “And sure enough, it came right down to the last seconds of the game and this time, the boys pulled it out. “They really stepped up to the plate and played well.” Okanagan out-gained Langley 451 yards to 296, but the Rams defence came up big with three turnovers, including an interception in the end zone in the second quarter by Carlo Graziano. Joe Lester also had an interception and a fumble recovery. Linebacker Arie Nakagawa led the defence with 12 tackles and one assist, while Andrew Doherty and Jordan Linnen had seven tackles apiece. Scott Puffer and Kurt Pederson both had quarterback sacks. “We knew we weren’t going to be able to play conservative if we wanted to win, so we were very aggressive and we put the ball in our players’ hands that we thought gave us the best chance to be successful,” Alamolhoda said. “(Jon) Roney managed the game very well and gave us an opportunity to win. And he put up four touchdowns for us.” Roney was slated to be the Rams top quarterback this season, but he suffered a third degree shoulder separation prior to the regular season beginning, sending him to the sidelines for much of the year. But once healthy, he found himself back in the line-up after injuries to the quarterback position, and he made the most of his second chance. “He has stepped up to the plate and
taken the reigns,” the coach said. The Rams play the BCFC championship game on Saturday at Nanaimo’s Caledonia Park against the Raiders. ••••• Six members of the Rams were honoured by the league last week. Leading the way were Nick Downey and Arie Nakagawa, who were named the BCFC’s most outstanding special teams and linebackers, respectively. This is the third straight season Downey won the special teams awards. Nakagawa was the co-winner of his award, while Downey also shared the top receiver award. Downey, who also won the league scoring title with 90 points (15 touchdowns), was also an offensive team all-star at both the receiver and returner position. He had 31 total returns (punt and kickoff) for 723 yards and four touchdowns, plus 28 receptions for 810 yards and 10 touchdowns, plus another rushing score. Nakagawa earned the honour at linebacker after 37 tackles, 14 assists, three sacks, one interception and one fumble recovery. Other Rams all-stars included: kicker Nick Naylor (11-for-19 field goals), defensive lineman Scott Puffer (13 tackles, 10 assists, four sacks and one forced fumble) and defensive backs Jordan Linnen (16 tackles, four assits and two interceptions) and Nick Felicella (18 tackles, two assists, one sack, two interceptions and one touchdown). This was Linnen’s second straight year he was selected.
