POLICE FILES

Crash claims teen’s life Witnesses are sought in a Mothers Day accident.

A roadside memorial is growing along the side of the Haney Bypass, as word spreads that a 15-yearold Pitt Meadows girl died after a weekend car crash. Katie Kirkland was critically injured in an accident early Sunday afternoon, involving two vehicles on the west end of the bypass. A westbound car collided with an eastbound pickup, and the car subsequently struck a pole in the 223rd Street intersection. The girl, a passenger in the car, was rushed to hospital, but Ridge Meadows RCMP announced two days later that she had succumbed

to her injuries. “Our heartfelt sympathy goes out to the family,” said Ridge Meadows RCMP Insp. Dan Splinter. Meanwhile, the crash is being “actively” investigated by local RCMP traffic unit and the Integrated Crash Analyst Reconstructionist Services to determine its cause, explained RCMP Cpl. Steve Martin. “What I can tell you is speed and alcohol are not factors,” Martin said, noting a total of four persons were involved between the two vehicles in the crash. Police are asking for anyone who witnessed the crash, who hasn’t already spoken to officers, to contact the Ridge Meadows RCMP at 604-463-6251.

READING

Bouncy Bookworms up to challenge A team from Albion Elementary won a competition in the sport of reading. TROY LANDREVILLE AND HEATHER COLPITTS editorial@mrtimes.com

Maple Ridge’s Bouncy Bookworms parlayed their love of reading into a gold medal finish in the Reading Link Challenge May 6. The team from Albion Elementary ruled the Grand Challenge held at Kwantlen Polytechnic University’s Langley campus. The seats on the auditorium for the Grand Challenge were filled with family, friends, and supporters. The Albion team made up of Jack Hayhoe, Harley McFarlane, Canyon Gudaitis, Diego Llarena, Emilie Bruce, and Cathy Kingsman answered the most skill-testing questions correctly among the 10 competing. The teams – made up of five members apiece – came from Delta, Maple Ridge, Coquitlam, Surrey, Port Moody, and North Vancouver. To get to the Grand Challenge, the Bouncy Bookworms had to win their school Reading Link Challenge,

Heather Colpitts / Black Press

The Albion Elementary Bouncy Bookworms won gold at the Reading Link Challenge regional competition May 6. and then library and community competitions. “This year we have over 3,000 children participating,” noted emcee Gillian McLeod. They were on 538 teams from 127 schools around the Lower Mainland. Albion Elementary teacherlibrarian Jim Graham said the journey to the Grand Link Challenge started in January with the Bouncy Bookworms reading six books, completing book reviews, and working on projects on the books. Then in March they won their inter-school contest that

included six teams consisting of six students each. After that the Bouncy Bookworms captured the Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows Reading Link Challenge competition on April 1, involving 13 schools from across District 42. Later in April they placed second at the Fraser Valley competition with 401 teams from 96 Fraser Valley schools participating. Their second place finish qualified them for the Grand Challenge. Each year the program participants in Grades 4 or 5 read a

set of six specific books. In the competitions, they must answer trivia questions based on what they read, working as a team to come up with the right answer. This year marked the ninth time in 11 years that an Albion Elementary team has won the Maple Ridge Reading Link Challenge, but the first time that one has captured the Grand Challenge. “There have been many third place finishes in the Fraser Valley, and two years ago a second place Grand Challenge placing, losing in sudden death overtime, but this is our first time winning the entire competition,” Graham said, noting that this same group placed fourth at the Grand Challenge last year as Grade 4 students and wanted to improve. “The kids’ effort was huge,” Graham said. “They probably reread each book five or six times. They created questions, and quizzes, and had older sibling help them. They were tremendously motivated.” Find out more at www.readinglinkchallenge.ca. The program is run jointly by the Fraser Valley Regional Library network, Coquitlam Public Library, the Port Moody Public library, North Vancouver City Library and Surrey Libraries. – Heather Colpitts is a reporter with Black Press

High turnout of local votes on transit tax Only two more weeks to return referendum ballots. BY COLE WAGNER editorial@mrtimes.com

With only two weeks go in the Metro Vancouver Transportation and Transit Plebescite, Maple Ridge is slated to be well represented in the final tally of votes. Across the 24 districts represented in Metro Vancouver, Maple Ridge has the fifth highest rate of returned ballots to registered voters. Around 42.5 per cent of registered voters in Maple Ridge have returned their

ballots, representing about 23,000 out of 54,000 registered voters. The only municipalities posting better return rates were the Villages of Anmore, Belcarra, Lions Bay, and the City of North Vancouver.. Meanwhile in Pitt Meadows, 41.4 per cent of voters have returned their ballots. The plebescite officially ends on May 29 at 8 p.m., but individuals who have yet to receive a voting package in the mail should contact Elections BC in order to be eligible to vote in the mail-in referendum. An Elections BC referendum station has been temporarily set up in Haney Place Mall – where people can pick up a voting package, submit their package directly,

Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows would see the addition of a B-Line bus to the new Evergreen Skytrain in Coquitlam, an additional West Coast Express (WCE) train added to the current service, and expanded bus service around the cities. The WCE, meanwhile, has faced over 100 disruptions in service throughout the last six months, according to a TransLink representative. TransLink is urging delayed riders to complain to Canadian Pacific Rail, saying it’s CPR’s responsibility to keep the tracks clear.

DEVELOPMENT OF A PEST MANAGEMENT PLAN

Thomas Haney student wins Valley’s regional science fair.

The Fraser Timber Supply Area Cooperative Association (FTSACA) is developing a Pest Management Plan (PMP) under the Integrated Pest Management Act. This plan will describe a vegetation management program using Integrated Pest Management, including the use of herbicides.

tlandreville@mrtimes.com

Ben Chisholm’s project impressed the judges at the Fraser Valley Regional Science Fair, held last month at the University of the Fraser Valley in Abbotsford. So much so, the Thomas Haney Secondary Grade 8 student was among three grand prize winners awarded an all-expense trip to the Canadawide Science Fair (CWSF) in Fredericton, NB. The CWSF, which runs this week (May 11 to 16) celebrates Canada’s brightest young minds while exploring science, technology, engineering, and math. The national competition brings together 500 “young scientists” showcasing their real world solutions to some of the globe’s most important issues while competing for nearly $1 million in awards, prizes, and scholarships. Joining 14-year-old Chisholm

Chisholm’s 14-page report and display, One Man’s Waste is another Man’s Power, focuses on getting energy from alternative and renewable sources. His experiment shows that it is possible to change the electrical production of a microbial

fuel cell by adding different additives to mud samples. Chisholm, who said he hopes to get a university degree in science, began researching for the project in December, did the experiment in January, and took data for two weeks. His interest in science started four years ago when he was attending school in England. > Read more and watch for update at mrtimes.com, search “science”

WATER MAIN FLUSHING The City of Pitt Meadows Public Works Department will be flushing water mains throughout the municipality for approximately twelve weeks beginning March 2, 2015. During this time there may be a temporary drop in water pressure or a noticeable discolouration in tap water. To correct problems with milky water, open the cold tap slightly to bleed air from the water lines. If you experience problems with dirty water, turn on an outside tap and let it run until water clears. The City thanks residents for their patience during this routing maintenance of the water mains. If there are any questions or concerns please call 604-465-2434.

Public Works Department 11333 Harris Road Pitt Meadows, BC, V3Y 2M5

The purpose of the PMP is to describe the vegetation management program in the FTSACA chart area in the Fraser Timber Supply Area. Vegetation control methods in this plan include aerial foliar spray, ground foliar spray (including backpack and power nozzle), stem injection (hack and squirt), basal bark sprays, manual girdling, power saw, stem bending and pulling and mechanical site preparation. These treatments will take place within the Fraser Timber Supply Area that contains Crown land designated as forest land within the Chilliwack Forest District extending from the Nesakwatch River drainage on the Canada / US border in the south to the Nahatlatch River drainage in the north. It extends from the Pitt River in the west to the Skagit River in the east. Since the FTSACA chart areas are spread throughout the Chilliwack Forest District, nearby towns include Boston Bar and Hope and the communities of the Fraser Valley. There are numerous dwellings scattered throughout the plan area. Proposed herbicides to be used include Vision, VisionMax, Vantage, Weed-Master (glyphosate), Release MSO, Garlon RTU, Garlon XRT (triclopyr) and Sylgard 309 (siloxylated polyether). This Pest Management Plan will be in effect for a period of five years from the date of approval (approximately 2015 to 2020). Interested parties may view the Pest Management Plan application in detail at the following location: Dunham and Associates Forest Professionals Ltd. 9194 Edward St. Chilliwack, B.C. V2P 4C6 (604) 793-6978 Attention: Michelle Dunham, RPF A person wishing to contribute information about a proposed treatment site, relevant to the development of the pest management plan, may send copies of the information to the applicant at the address above within 30 days of the publication of this notice.

ProPosed Changes to Park Land deveLoPment Cost Charge (dCC) ByLaw The City of Pitt Meadows is currently accepting comments on proposed changes to the rates for the Park Land Development Cost Charge (DCC) Bylaw. As residential uses are the primary beneficiary of parkland development, parkland DCC’s are collected from developers solely for new residential developments in the community. In accordance with Provincial legislation, the proposed DCC program itemizes all parkland acquisition and improvement projects that are necessary to support population growth in the City from new development and that will be funded (in part) by DCC’s. The last review of the City of Pitt Meadows Park Land DCC Bylaw occurred in 1996. For a complete Park Land Development Cost Charge Bylaw Change information package, please visit City Hall or www.pittmeadows.bc.ca Comments on the proposed changes will be accepted until 4:30 pm on June 8, 2015 and then presented to Council for their final consideration prior to adoption of the Bylaw later this year. For more information contact: Mark Roberts Director of Finance and Facilities 604-465-2449 mroberts@pittmeadows.bc.ca

Investigation turned over to police: An early morning fire in a house being

constructed on River Road, near 207th Street, is believed suspicious and the case has now been turned over to Ridge Meadows RCMP for further investigation. While the blaze destroyed the one home, Maple Ridge fire chief Dane Spence said quick action by firefighters saved three neighbouring homes.

COLE WAGNER editorial@mrtimes.com

Friends and family of Jack Sheppard described the man as many things – a business leader, community activist, but most who knew him would also say he was a true gentleman. “He loved his children, and his City,” said longtime friend Tom Meier. Sheppard, whose entrepreneurial career began as a door-todoor salesman for the Singer Sewing Jack Sheppard Company, opened Haney Sewing & Condolences Sound in downtown on Facebook Haney in 1969. Jack worked at the store until he retired in 1994. His sons, Don and Dave joined the store in ’80 and ’89 respectively. Business, however, was only one aspect of Jack Sheppard. He was also an avid runner and community activist, who was a driving force behind a cherished community event: the Ridge Meadows Home Show. As news of his passing reached social media, Maple Ridge residents offered their condolences and remembered Jack Sheppard for his commitment to the community. “Thank you Jack for all you have done to make Maple Ridge a great place to call home,” wrote former Maple Ridge mayor Ernie Daykin. “You will be missed!” A Celebration of Life for Sheppard will be held at Fraserview Village hall, 22538 116th Ave., next Thursday, May 21 at 4 p.m. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Canadian National Institute for the Blind. > More at www.mrtimes.com, search “Sheppard”

ick, tock. Time is running out. Those in favour of the $7.5-billion Metro Vancouver transportation and transit plebiscite and a new transit tax have been very vocal in this spring’s campaign, taking a dog-and-pony show on the road to communities throughout the region and spending crazy money telling us all why we need to vote “yes” in this mail-in referendum. Of course, out here in the Valley, that concerted effort has been met with a bit of backlash from some. Consequently, the red “no” signs continue popping up around town and a few opposing restaurants have gone as far to include their views on the bottoms of each bills. That’s just mentioning a few methods the opponents are using to get their message out. Bottom line, wherever you fall on this issue, we simply ask two things. Please spend a bit of time and educate yourself on the subject. And, make sure you vote. Complacency is definitely not the answer. Good news, if you haven’t received your voters package, there’s still time to request one. But that time is fast running out. More than 1.5 million voting packages were sent out to homes in the 23 affected municipalities back in March, and for those who still don’t have one or have lost theirs, they need to call 1-800-661-8683 before midnight Friday, May 15. A few weeks back, Elections BC, which is administering the vote, said about half a million of those ballots had already come back. In Pitt Meadows, of the 12,849 eligible voters 5,315 (or 41.4 per cent) have actually voted already. Likewise, in Maple Ridge, of the 54,462 eligible voters, they’ve already received packages from 23,164 of us (or 42.5 per cent). Those were among the highest returns in the region. So, here’s that friendly reminder: Elections BC must receive the completed ballots before 8 p.m. on Friday, May 29. Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows voters, those of you 18 years or older before the deadline day, please make sure to cast your vote. This proposed taxation, either way, will significantly impact our future. – R.H.

ing, editing, and whatever else I might have done in all that time. It didn’t seem like it had been all that long... until I started opening the files and the drawers – and the drawers of files – filled with accumulated memories. Some of the memories were found in boxes that had not been touched in more than a decade. One of my favourite boxes contained trinkets and doodads that PR flaks used to attach to their press releases, partly as bribes and partly just to get my attention (and that of the dozens of other editors who received similar packages). Most of the stuff was really ridiculous: a plastic yellow bowling pin, a foam rubber locomotive, a sealed beer can filled with air (I’m thinking it was probably air, as it was far too light to be filled with beer, but I never opened it, because then it would have become just another empty beer can). If all the boxes and drawers and file cabinets were filled with that kind of junk, clearing out the office would have been

easy: just throw it all in the dumpster and be done with it. But it doesn’t work that way. There were letters and cards, the most touching ones, culled from the many people who thanked me for... what?... really just doing my job over the past few decades. But I must admit that it was a rewarding job, and those cards and letters – and the phone calls that work like ambrosia on the brains cells – are proof of the rewards. That, of course, reminds me of some of the other phone calls and cards and letters (and threats of lawsuits), saved because they were instructive of the needs and sensibilities of people in the community, reminders of the gravity of the editor’s position and responsibilities. And others were saved because they were so ridiculous that they’re still good for a laugh. It’s all history now, some of it saved for posterity, most of it buried in time..

Bus cancellation decision shortsighted Dear Editor,

The school board’s decision to cancel bus services as of September 2016 [Cuts force board to make tough call on school buses, TIMES, April 9] is both shortsighted and irresponsible. It goes without saying, east Maple Ridge is overwhelmed with the number housing developments being built, so many families are moving in with

few services, including schools. Thus Albion and Alexander Robinson were bursting at the seams. And since it was unlikely a new school would be built to ease the burden on those two schools, the board decided to redraw the boundaries to fill up the underutilized schools of Whonnock, Webster’s Corners and Blue Mountain. For some students,

Garbage pickup plan unfair Dear Editor,

I see the implementation of garbage pickup by the City [Maple Ridge eying trash options, TIMES online, April 22] as yet another cash grab – another addition to our taxes that will only get more expensive year by year, by way of increased wages, etc. I am quite happy to take my three or four cans of garbage to the transfer station once every four to six weeks at a cost of $15 – nowhere near the $275 as reported. My wife and I take the few minutes of extra time to recycle as much as possible. Our kitchen scraps go into our backyard compost to top up our garden beds. I realize that larger families may need to go more often, but not everyone should have to pay the same fee to subsidize those people’s needs. And yes, we also have private collectors whose three or four trucks go by once a week for their customers, but it’s only once a week, not every day.

Facebook feedback

The Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadow school district joins others in B.C. faced with cutting bus service, and readers vocalize their opposition: “This is ridiculous! Now how will the kids get to school?” – Kimberley Wernicke “What!! I don’t even have TransLink services… I have no way for my child to attend school, I guess.” – Lynne Bailey “Simply amalgamate School Districts, eliminate top heavy management levels & get costs under control. Have more money for services and programs for kids and their taxpaying parents.” – Bruce McWilliam “It’s very unfortunate… Sounds like when they made their mind up it didn’t matter what anyone suggested.”

their catchment school is now 10 kilometres away. But at least they could take a bus. Now those students will no longer be able to get to their school without someone driving them. We will be back to where we started: some schools at over capacity, with others underutilized, because I don’t know too many parents who travel east to get to work. Parents are going to drop their kids at the schools they can get them to, and likely those will be the schools to the west. And what about those parents who rely on the bus to get their kids to and from school because they

work? Do we now expect those parents to reduce their work, if that’s even possible, or quit their jobs because they had the crazy expectation that their kids could access local catchment schools? Some may argue it’s the parents’ responsibility to get kids to school. But do we not, as a civilized society, share in the responsibility of ensuring all kids have the opportunity to an education? Cancelling bus services is a fast and easy way to save some money, but it is shortsighted, plus it will have far reaching implications for many families in our district.

What programs of choice should we consider offering in the future? What should the school district consider when it changes school boundaries?

Bill 11 model of hypocrisy Dear Editor,

A hypocrite is defined as someone who says they have particular moral beliefs, but behaves in way that shows these are not sincere. The BC Liberals don’t like that the citizens of Burnaby North and Maple Ridge-Mission are attempting to recall their MLAs because they are unhappy with their job performance, but the B.C. Liberal government has proposed legislation, Bill 11, that would allow the minister of education to replace elected school trustees, when he deems it to be in the public’s best interest, with a hand-picked administrator. A successful recall campaign would trigger a by-election in which the MLA is free to participate – not so for elected school trustees when they are replaced. I think the definition fits the situation.

Tax wasteful, regressive Dear Editor,

The family income splitting, which is supposed to help “average” families, unfortunately does just the opposite. I just tried a few calculations: A family earning under $40,000 gets nothing, $45,000 gets you a rebate of $73, and for $50,000 you get $423 back. Single parents will also get zero, since they cannot split income. If you are a single mom, you are out of luck to share in this tax bonanza. But anybody earning over $80,000 will get the maximum of $2,000. The cost of this hand-out is $2.2 billion of your taxes. Is this how we want to share $2.2 billion of government revenues? The families who need it most get next to nothing, and the ones who need it least get the max? It is a wasteful, regressive tax.

HAPPY ENDING

Lions Club pics found

A cherished album of photos, which flew from the open trunk of a moving vehicle last month, was returned by an anonymous Good Samaritan after an article appeared in The TIMES. Lorie Ouellette, president of the Pitt Meadows Lions Club, was passing by the Lions Den clubhouse last week, when she noticed a bag hanging from one of the doors. Inside that bag was the largely unscathed album of historical Lions Club pictures that fell from her moving vehicle. “The Lions would like to say a big thank you to our anonymous Good Samaritan,” she said.

Student entrepreneurs:

Grade 5 through 7 students at Maple Ridge Christian Secondary recently hosted a Young Entrepreneur Fair, the results of three months of preparation and hard work. The kids learned how to conduct market research, create a product, write a a business plan and take their finished product to the consumers. Kendra Banbury (right), a Grade 5 student, explained the strategy behind her floral business called “Kendra’s Creations.” “I wanted to make necklaces at first,” she said, “But I realized that they were going to take too long to make and be too expensive. Then, I saw chalk paint at the store. I got the idea to paint mason jars with chalk paint and sell flowers. I learned that kids might not buy flowers, but adults might.” In the meantime, Owen Barber (right), a Grade 6 student, created a business called Owen’s Epic Sling Shots. “I had to reduce the price from $6 to $5 each,” Owen said. “When the Grade 3 boys came, I was surprised at how quickly the slingshots sold out. It was fun.” Each student will donate a portion of their profit to a charity of their choice. “The Young Entrepreneur Fair gives our students the opportunity to gain real business experience by developing, marketing, and selling their own products,” said Blaine Unger, a Grade 6- 7 teacher. “It was great to see our students apply their learning with such energy.”

Rexall giving back to kids

Down to Business

his past Friday, the new Rexall drugstore located at Haney Place Mall in Maple Ridge, celebrated its grand opening in a special way. As part of the celebration, Paul Chidley, divisional vice president of Rexall, was on site to make a $30,000 donation on behalf of the company to Camp Goodtimes here in Maple Ridge, through the Canadian Cancer Society, BC and Yukon division. The money came from the Rexall Foundation, which store manager JD Dhooria said is “our social and corporate responsibility arm.” The foundation donates money to children’s charities in communities in which the company has operations, he elaborated. “The money is used directly for the betterment of sick kids.” Funds for the donations come fundraising events the store holds throughout the year, Dhooria added. The store, which employs 24 people, held a soft opening about two weeks ago, but this weekend marked its official opening, and Dhooria said the response from the comERIC ZIMMER munity so far has been awesome. “We had a really good, really busy, grand opening weekend, and we’re glad to be here,” he said. “We have a long lease, and we’re looking forward to being here for many years in this community.” As a side note on the business franchise front, over in West Maple Ridge keep an eye out for burger chain Fatburger, that’s currently setting up shop at Westgate Centre, 20398 Dewdney Trunk Rd., as well as Bodhi Natural Market, located at 11920 207 St.

TICK BITES

‘Lyme sucks’ for sufferers The nationwide Ride for Lyme stopped at Haney Place Mall Monday.

Michael Steele reacted after biting into a lime wedge as part of the Lyme Challenge beside Haney Place Mall on Monday, May 11.

TROY LANDREVILLE tlandreville@mrtimes.com

Debbie Zimbaro said her life took a turn for the worse in the summer of 2013 when she was bitten by an insect smaller than a poppy seed. Since the tick bite, the Maple Ridge mom of two grown children has had to deal with a barrage of health issues, all the result of, she said, contracting Lyme disease. Lyme-infected ticks have been found across Canada and symptoms can sometimes occur years after a tick bite. Just some of the common symptoms include chronic headaches, sweat/chills, fatigue, More online sore search joints and ‘Lyme’ muscles, tremors, neck creaks and stiffness, numbness, blurred vision, light and sound sensitivity, digestive problems, and problems with memory, speech, and balance. Zimbaro is one of the “Lyme Warriors,” people who have contracted Lyme disease from tick bites. “I don’t think enough people know what Lyme disease is,” Zimbaro said on Monday afternoon, as she helped set up tables outside of

Troy Landreville TIMES

Haney Place Mall to welcome two young cyclists who are on a cross-country journey for awareness and funds as part of the Ride for Lyme. Zimbaro describes living with Lyme disease as “terrible.” “It’s very debilitating. You never know from one minute to the next what’s going to happen to your body,” she added. “The symptoms are vast and varied.” In her case, she said there “about a hundred” symptoms. After being bitten, Zimbaro started to feel sick and saw her family doctor, who thought she contracted a virus. “He kept saying you have a virus and then it escalated to, ‘There’s not really anything wrong with you, this has been going on too long,’” Zimbaro said. “It feels like the worst case of flu that you’ve ever imagined. It got to the point where, by Christmastime, I literally thought I was dying of a terminal illness.”

After visiting several doctors, Zimbaro underwent an MRI. Lesions were found on her brain. The only way Zimbaro could tell she was bitten was from a tiny scab she found on the top of her head. “I never thought anything of it, even after I started getting sick because I didn’t know anything myself about Lyme disease, and that’s why people need to be educated, because the more people who are aware, the sooner you know you’ve been bitten, and you can go onto antibiotics straight away,” Zimbaro said. One of the Ride for Lyme supporters, Karen Marchand, said the ride is about raising awareness and funds for research because, she said, “the government is not supporting us in our quest to find the answers to our health challenges.” Daniel Corso’s and Tanner Cookson’s

friend Adelaine Nohara has Lyme disease and on her behalf, the two St. Catharines, Ont. natives are cycling across Canada with the goal of raising $100,000 for CanLyme, a foundation that provides research funding, raising awareness, and communicating with government public health agencies. The Adelaine Project is an 8,000 km bicycle journey across Canada. Early Monday morning, May 11, Corso, 23, and Cookson, 22, departed on their bicycles from Victoria with a goal of arriving at St. John’s, Nfld., by July 8. Along the way, they plan to make stops at news stations, schools, and events to meet with doctors, politicians, victims and the general public to promote their mission. To donate to the cause online or learn more about the Adelaine Project, visit www.rideforlyme.ca.

Sports & Rec Europe bound

Brian Malfesi of the Ridge Canoe and Kayak Club has been selected to the senior menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Canadian national team to compete at three world cup events in Europe this month. The tour starts at Montemor-OVelho in Portugal, then moves on to Duisberg Germany before wrapping up in Copenhagen, Denmark at the end of May. The competitions are used to select the Canadian team to compete at the Pan Am Games in Toronto this July, and at the World Championships in Milan, Italy in August.

Open season The club held their Slawko Fedechko, Season Opener regatta at Whonnock Lake recently. Top Ridge performances were turned in by Alex Brent and Tessa Nagai, who won the Open Men and Open Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s K1 200m, 500m, and 6000m respectively. On the Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s side, Kathy Nay and Verna McNichol were second and third in the 500m and 6000m. In U17 competition, Justin Won, Matthew Koehler and Jeff Jiang, finished first, second, and third in the K1 200m and 500m events. The same trio were top finishers in the 6000m as well, with Koehler on top. In U15 competition, Tyler Demidoff and Melody Oh won in both boys and girls K1 200m, 500m and 4000m respectively.

There was no shortage of lacrosse action at Planet Ice this weekend, as the Ridge Meadows Burrards hosted their annual Barn Burner tournament. The Burrards midget A team scored a second place finish, after losing in the final to Coquitlam.

WRESTLING

Wildcat grad grapples for Canada in Cuba Maple Ridgeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Cody Osborn competed at the Junior Pan-American championships in Cuba. TROY LANDREVILLE tlandreville@mrtimes.com

Cody Osborn pinned down an opportunity to wrestle for Canada at the Junior Pan-American Championships. In the Greco-Roman style, the 18-year-old Westview Secondary grad topped the boys 66-kilogram class at the 2015 ASICs Junior/Senior Canadian Wrestling Championships, held earlier this year at Brock University in St. Catharines, Ontario. In a three-wrestler division, Osborn won gold after beating Nicholas Wilson 8-0 and outlasting Lucas Hoffert 11-8. With the gold-medal came the opportunity to compete for Canada in Greco Roman wrestling at the Pan-Am meet in Havana, Cuba on May 6.

Westview Secondary grad Cody Osborn has been wrestling for six years, and represented Canada at the Junior Pan-American Championshps.

TIMES files

In his one and only match, Osborn lost to Edwar Arvenis Polanco from the Dominican Republic. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get to do a whole lot,â&#x20AC;? Osborn said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a new style for me and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hard to adapt. I felt I came in prepared but I got caught on a move, the gut wrench, and once he had me it was all over.â&#x20AC;? Greco-Roman wrestling involves only the upper body on both offence and defence. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a discipline thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s quite unfamiliar to Osborn, who wrestled freestyle at

Westview and this past year as a freshman with the University of Alberta Golden Bears in Edmonton. However, the experience as a whole was good for Osborn, who had a chance to train with the national junior team but also witnessed some of the poverty that exists in Havana. In the days leading up to the Pan-Am meet, Osborn was in full fundraising mode in his bid to don Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s colours in Cuba. â&#x20AC;&#x153;With the money raised I have

aspirations to medal at the PanAm Championships and to possibly take home a gold,â&#x20AC;? Osborn wrote, in his makeachamp fundraising page (makeachamp. com/codyosborn). â&#x20AC;&#x153;The money I raise will go towards wrestling gear that Canada Wrestling will provide, as well as the cost of flying to Cuba, competing at the PanAm Championships, and taking part in a very influential training camp. All these things cost a lot of money but will help develop me as a wrestler and give me an experience unlike any other.â&#x20AC;? Qualifying from junior nationals came as something of a surprise to Osborn, who said it would be an honour to represent his country in Cuba. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It would be great to represent Team Canada and have my family cheering me at home,â&#x20AC;? Osborn said prior to the meet. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve never wrestled on the international stage and to see how I stack up against the rest of the world would be awesome.â&#x20AC;? The junior Pan-Am event included freestyle and Greco-Roman wrestlers and ran from May 6 to 8. > More at www.mrtimes.com

Fishy discovery now a common catch

Royal weekend on the ball diamond

TIMES columnist and fishing enthusiast Jeff Weltz continues his series on the history of fly fishing in North America. This week, he tells the story of a fish that when discovered, people struggled to identify. Nowadays, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one of the most popular fish to catch.

Ridge Meadows Royals baseball squad enjoyed a winning weekend, after defeating Kamloops on the road, and Cloverdale at home. The team now sits in first place in the B.C. midget AAA league.
