Dale Carlson, running this Chilliwack-based Top Alcohol Dragster, took second place in last year’s Lordco B.C. Nationals at Mission Raceway Park. He will be back again this SPEEDZONE MAGAZINE PHOTO weekend, and is considered one of the favourites to win it all.

Record Contributor

More than 400 drag cars, worth more than $60 million and coming from as far as Alaska, California and Ontario, will fill the pits at Mission Raceway Park this weekend for the Lordco B.C. Nationals. Racers in over a dozen categories will compete for over $175,000 in prize money and valuable points in the chase for national and divisional drag racing crowns. The feature classes are two of the quickest and fastest in all of motorsports, Top Alcohol Dragster and Top Alcohol Funny Car. They routinely

reach speeds in excess of 260 mph, with the potential of reaching 280-plus mph. They reach those speeds in a quarter mile, and in less than 5.5 seconds. The self proclaimed granddaddy of all motorsports events is also on tap this weekend at Indianapolis (the Indy 500). The power the Indy cars generate is about 900 hp, but in Mission they’ll bring close to 4,000 hp. Top Alcohol Dragster (TAD) preview This class is the stepping stone to the kings of the sport, “Top Fuel.” The cars look very similar to their big brothers, and the only difference is the fuel they race with. Most of the teams in Top Alcohol Dragster class are longtime racers, and this is the class they can run on an almost full-time basis while still keeping their day job. Their day job must be a good one though, as every five-second 270 mph pass costs close to $1,500. To win this

weekend’s event, they will make three qualifying passes (one Friday and two on Saturday) and then three runs in eliminations on Sunday to reach the winners circle. Three of the five top guns in the class competing at Mission are Canadians. Shawn Cowie is the guy everyone in the northwest is chasing. The Tsawwassen resident finished fourth in the world in 2009. He is only one of a handful of drivers who have gone over 270 mph in the 5.20’s in a blown alcohol powered dragster. He was the Division 6 champion last year, and was named the driver of the year in the northwest in 2009. His main rival from south of the border is Tacoma’s Joey Severance Jr. – a multiple winner and one of the best pure drivers in the class. Severance and his dad are one of the few teams running a Chevy based hemi engine. His career best is a 5.32 ET at 269 mph. See DRAGS Page 3

ee arrived at 8:30 a.m. Wednesday morning to open the store, said Mission RCMP. From the outside, you wouldn’t know something was wrong, said Nathan Selvaraja whose family owns the store. Staff at the store spent days sorting through inventory to determine what has been stolen. So far more than $200,000 worth items are missing. The thieves made off with more than 100 Bulova, Movado, and Citizen watches, said Selvaraja, who is asking the public to be on the look out for anyone trying to unload these watches. “You can melt down gold, but you can’t melt down watches and sell them,” said Selvaraja. Also missing are some loose diamonds; an assortment of coloured stone jewelry including necklaces, rings and earrings; and some custom pieces. There’s a unique banglette with a large ammolite and diamonds, said Selvaraja. “They knew where everything was, and they had the equipment to cut through the walls.” The RCMP’s forensic identification services were on scene to collect evidence, and police are examining video surveillance from the area. Anyone with information about this crime is asked to call Mission RCMP at 604-826-7161. If you want to remain anonymous, call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-2228477.

Houseboat grow-op bust RCMP’s first Floating pot farm included 300 plants BY

CAROL AUN

Mission Record

Police are revealing few details about a marijuana grow operation found on a houseboat in a rural part of Mission last Wednesday. Around 4 p.m., RCMP members on the ground and in a watercraft on the Fraser River coordinated efforts to surround the suspected boat. Like busts on land, police called out and announced their presence before moving in. Nobody was on the boat at the time. This is the first houseboat bust local Mounties have made. There were several rooms inside the boat and about 300 marijuana plants near budding, said Cpl.

Raina Siou. It appeared work was being done in another room to expand the grow op, she added. There was also evidence pollution from the operation was being dumped into the Fraser River and environmental agencies, such as Fisheries and Oceans Canada, will be notified, said Siou. BC Hydro services the area where the boat was moored, but police are not saying if a bypass was used or the vessel’s exact location, due to the search warrant being sealed. Search warrants are sealed for several reasons, the most common being to protect a source, investigation techniques and a victim, explained Siou.

No insurance breaks despite hefty ICBC profit ICBC’s profit is continuing to rise but the public auto insurer is showing no sign it intends to cut driver’s insurance premiums. The insurance corporation reported a $155-million profit in the first quarter of 2010 – up 32 per cent from a year ago – as a result of stronger investment returns. Officials said claims costs were kept down in part by long periods of dry, clear weather during the 2010 Winter Olympics and motorists’ shift to transit. Premiums are unlikely to increase this year, according to ICBC officials, who said nothing of potential cuts.

ICBC profits came in at $563 million for 2009, a 13 per cent increase. But most of that extra money won’t remain with the corporation to reduce rates or invest in safety programs. The provincial government has ordered ICBC to hand over $487 million of its reserves deemed to be surplus to help reduce B.C.’s deficit. Victoria intends to withdraw $145 million annually in subsequent years, with the money coming out of the optional insurance side of ICBC’s business.

Funny car champ returns From DRAGS Page 1

Dale Carlson driving the Chilliwack based, Hugh Ridley owned TAD was the runner-up in Mission last year, and has been on the losing side of Shawn Cowie too many times in the last year and a half. The team was the top qualifier at the tough Seattle NW Nationals last year. The fourth in the top four is a young lady by the name of Ashley Bart. Car owner Ken Gilmore has certainly paid his dues the last couple years. A trailer fire destroyed the entire operation two years ago, and they came back last year with a new car and the best parts money can buy. Gilmore has their car dialed in, running well into the 5.30s, at over 264 mph. Bart is also getting the handle on the 3,500 hp machine, with improved RTs and the track record at Medicine Hat Raceway in Alberta. Rounding out the top five, Oregon’s Mike Austin will step into a Steve Federlin owned TAD. Federlin has won at Mission twice in the past and has numerous runner-ups. Top Alcohol Funny Car (TAFC) While there won’t be quite as

for all your

many entrants as the TAD class, it will be very competitive. Brian Hough, the 2009 division champion from Oregon, loves the Mission facility and has always run well here. The defending division champion has finished in the top 10 in the world three of the last five years. If the weather is favourable, he should be right near the 5.50s at close to 260 mph. Clint Thompson, based in Oregon, won this event three of the last four years and went to the final round last week in Topeka Kansas at the O’Reilly Summer Nationals, where a red light cost him the win. He is probably the favourite, based on his results in Mission in 2006-2008. John Evanchuk from Edmonton is the strongest running Canadian, and he benefits from having the same crew chief as Shawn Cowie, in the person of Bill Moore. A high 5.60 runner, Evanchuk is looking to take the next step and get his first-ever win. Rob Atchison makes the trek from Ontario, as his sponsor ACE Manufacturing is based in the west. Atchison has a great resume, winning the IHRA world championship three times. Todd Ashwell, another Oregon

runner, makes his debut at Mission, but he will qualify well and likely go a round or two. He made a splash last year running low 5.70s at over 250 mph in Woodburn, Oregon. Nathan Sitko, the young gun out of Edmonton, has a great drag racing pedigree as a third generation racer. Starting in the Jr. Dragster ranks, Sitko has raced Alcohol Funny Cars, Alcohol Dragsters and Nitro Nostalgia Funny Cars. The team, under the tutelage of car owner Ken Sitko, has run in the 5.80s, but they will need at least another tenth of a second to mount a serious challenge. Another Alberta driver, Trevor Lebsack, has one of the nicest funny cars anywhere. However, consistency has been the issue for the Slave Lake team. If all their ducks are in a row, they will battle on Sunday. Adult spectator prices for Friday are $10 including pit passes. Saturday and Sunday the cost is $20, and the pit pass costs an extra $5. Children under 12 are free with adult paid admission. For more info call 604-8266315. Dean Murdoch is the editor of Speedzone Magazine

District sets GHG goals BY

CAROL AUN

Mission Record

The District of Mission is adopting a policy to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The targets — a 10 per cent corporate greenhouse gas reduction from 2008 levels by the end of 2015 and a community reduction of 20 per cent below 2007 levels by 2020 — will be written

into the Official Community Plan. These are aggressive goals that can only be reached by building denser communities and with support from senior levels of government, said Mike Younie, Mission’s manager of environmental services. These changes are part of the B.C. government’s Climate Action Plan which Mission signed in

2008. Mission’s targets are below the ones set out by the province, which calls for a 33 per cent reduction from 2007 levels by 2020 and 80 per cent below 2007 levels by 2050. “We took into account Mission’s growth potential,” explained Younie, adding it will be challenging to meet. One of the biggest problems is Mission is a commuter community, and transit is limited. Creating new and local employment and more shopping opportunities for residents will be key, said Younie. According to the provincial calculations, Mission’s community GHG emissions is about 210,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent based on 2008 energy uses, and corporate GHG emissions is about 2,500 tonnes of

carbon dioxide equivalent. Community GHG emissions come from residential, commercial and industrial buildings, all vehicles and solid waste disposal. The new provincial legislation doesn’t require municipalities to set out corporate targets, but Mission wants to be a leader in this. Corporate GHG emissions are produced from district buildings and infrastructure and vehicles. Hydro already wants to see a 10 per cent reduction in electrical savings, which will help reduce GHG emissions. For further reductions, the district will be looking at how buildings are heated and the vehicle fleet. The district has applied for provincial grants and hired an energy manager.

Mission’s director of corporate administration walked into council chambers with a stack of papers in his arms and took his seat beside the mayor for the last time on Tuesday evening.

THE MISSION RECORD – THURSDAY, MAY 27, 2010

OPINION

Published and printed by Black Press Ltd. at Mission at 33047 First Ave., V2V 1G2

Celebrations test grads’ judgement

he first signs of graduation tend to come weeks before the official celebration. Young girls shopping for dresses, students studying for finals and fundraisers from car washes to plant sales are held around the community. But there are also the unwelcome indicators, many alcohol-related – broken beer bottles in parks, vandalized property and other remnants of pre-grad partying. With freedom looming and the prospects of university, travel or simply doing nothing within arm’s reach, senior students are likely to mix their excitement with alcohol. And while the combination can be lethal in itself, factoring the operation of a vehicle into the equation is all the more troublesome. According to the Traffic Research Foundation of Canada, of the more than 1,000 people who died in Canada from alcohol-related crashes in 2007 – from which the most recent statistics are available – teenagers accounted for the second highest number of incidences. In response, schools continue to take a firm zerotolerance stand, and there’s no doubt increased measures to cut alcohol out of celebrations have made liquor consumption more difficult. Dry grads are known for strict constraints, with participants prohibited from leaving early without consent of a parent; body and purse searches conducted upon entry and the presence of security personnel prominent. But wherever there is a rule, there is someone ready to break it. No matter how stringent the regulations, alcohol will play a role in this year’s grad parties across the province. Students will get drunk, and many will find their way behind the wheel. A certain number will crash, and some will become injured. Others will die. The only hope the public has to lessen the impact of drinking and driving is by continuing to educate. After all, there’s a whole life after graduation worth living. – Black Press

HST petition to succeed – then what?

he anti-HST petition drive is closing in on its goal, with all of June still to go. It’s a rout in most of the province for the motley mujahadeen that runs under the ragged banner of shrub merchant Bill Vander Zalm and tax warrior Carole James. It recently fell to me to advise a group of fresh recruits in Harrison Hot Springs that there was no urgent need to drive to Chilliwack and sign the thing. By early May the B.C. Liberal bedrock of Chilliwack-Hope already had almost twice the signatures it needs to qualify under B.C.’s initiative legislation. There are pockets of resistance to the anti-HST jihad, and they are oddly distributed. To Zalm and his field commanders like to talk tough about Point Grey, the leafy redoubt of Premier Gordon Campbell. Perfect place for a “targeted recall” effort, they hint, should the government use its majority to stall or ignore the petition. But Point Grey is where the Fight HST forces have had their feeblest effort so far, with only 31 per cent of their target met as of May 16. Up in Peace River South, a place spiritually aligned with Alberta, they had that many signatures the first day. By pouring insurgents into the coffee

shops of Kerrisdale and Dunbar, the Fight HST forces should win the Vancouver areas where their start has been slowest. But strangely, NDP strongholds of Kensington, Kingsway and Mount Pleasant are also notably sluggish about rising up against the HST, along with Finance Minister Colin Hansen’s Quilchena and the swing seat of Vancouver-West End. (For the record, at last count Fight HST also remained short of its goal in Abbotsford-Mission, Abbotsford West, all seven Burnaby and Coquitlam-area seats, all three Richmond seats, North Vancouver-Lonsdale, both West Van seats, and three Surrey seats held by the NDP. Some of these, as well as Prince George-Mackenzie, m are probably done by the time you read this.) Still, it’s safe to assume the first successful initiative in B.C. history is upon us. So what’s next? Hansen showed has cards a bit last week. B.C.’s never-used initiative law says the petition must be referred to a B.C. Liberal-controlled committee, which will have the option of referring the issue to a province-wide referendum or turning the petition into a bill to present to the legislature. “They had a referendum in California a few years back on tax measures,” Hansen said. “It’s not serving them very

well today.” In fact California has been using its initiative legislation for a century, and an industry of professional petitioners has emerged. People love it. The state is currently using it to consider legalizing and taxing marijuana. Oh yes, and California is broke. Governor Arnold Schwarzennegger is among those who say the state is handcuffed by spending and tax rules imposed by voter referenda. One of its more notorious efforts was Proposition 13, which ended an upward spiral of property taxes by slashing them 57 per cent. The local government of Orange County, one of the richest places in the world, declared bankruptcy in 1994. Back here in B.C., you may have heard that some national chain stores have had a bit of difficulty with the PST exemptions that have been attached in recent years. Stores have inadvertently charged PST for things like fire extinguishers, and remitted it to Victoria. Also gone are exemptions for overthe-counter medications, adult-sized clothes for bigger kids, caulking and insulation. B.C. residents can manage without these political sops, the main result of retaining provincial authority over sales taxes. tfletcher@blackpress.ca Editor’s note: As of early this week, the anti-HST campaign reported meeting the 10 per cent requirement in Point Grey.

THE MISSION RECORD – THURSDAY, MAY 27, 2010

School board hikes spending at the top Editor, The Record: “Declining enrolment” has been the excuse for layoffs of support staff before in the Mission school district, and it is being used again this year. Yet declining enrolment does not seem to affect the hiring of exempt (management and mid-management) staff at the school board office. Another position was posted the same week that 70 CUPE members received lay-off notices. According to the article in the Mission Record last week, secretary-treasurer Roy Daykin states that there is “no capacity” for current staff at the school board office to do the work

which will be part of this new position. What about cutting the grounds department from six staff to three, and cutting maintenance by four staff? Will they not have to take on incredible additional loads? Maybe Mr. Daykin can reassess the work loads of an ever-increasing number of exempt employees at his office. Not only is the number of exempt staff increasing at an alarming rate, but so is the amount of money they are costing taxpayers. According to figures made available by our school board office, Frank Dunham, superintendent of schools, received an increase in salary of 14.6 per cent (an increase of $20,344) from 2008 to

2009, elevating him to $159,365 per annum. His expenses increased by 75 per cent in the same time period to an astounding $24,496. Deputy superintendent Brenda Lightburn’s salary increased by almost 28 per cent ($35,233) elevating her income to $161,724. Associate superintendent Carrie McVeigh’s salary increased by 12.6 per cent ($14,267) to a total of $127,007 per annum. Her expenses increased by a whopping 139.7 per cent to $8,403. The figures for their increases for 2010 have not yet been released. So now we all lose support staff who are hands-on with the students, grounds, and building sites. A few

less grounds staff, janitors and maintenance workers will have an immediate effect on the appearance of our schools and the grounds. Losing noon hour supervisors has an extremely minor effect on the budget but a huge effect on the safety of the students. Cutting education assistants, who are already spread thin, will have an alarming effect on classrooms with special needs students. Mr. Daykin minimizes the 70 cuts to 31 full-time equivalent positions. However, you count it Mr. Daykin, there will be 70 less bodies to care for the schools, the grounds and most importantly, the students.

Do they need to make some cuts to find $2.8 million? Yes, of course they do. Maybe cutting at the top or at least stopping the phenomenal increases should be something to consider. I would like to know how they got the district into this mess in the first place. In a recent conversation I had with Mr. Dunham, he repeatedly pointed out other districts with similar problems. I would like Mr. Dunham to concentrate on the efforts of the districts who do not have this problem. Obviously they are doing something right. Edie Lissimore Mission

Bypass a solid investment

The thick grey strip indicated by the downward arrows is the proposed bypass route.

Editor, The Record: An elevated bypass – what a novel concept – will alleviate quite a number of flow problems within the heart of Mission. The thick grey linage is the new and revised highway 7 bypass that is elevated where the railway tracks and the white arrows are. This new route will allow for a wider bridge over the tracks at the west end near the Junction which could incorporate into it a pedestrian bridge over the tracks away from the traveled highway, as well as make the new junction of highways 7 and 11 where the cloverleaf is now. The white arrows are underpasses to the waterfront at the Junction to access the raceway, the existing underpass at the railway tracks to access the waterfront and another new one for Horn Street to go under the bypass to access the waterfront. There will also be a new elevated access from downtown to the current industrial park with a road and walkways to enable traffic to go from downtown into the park. It would be located at the foot of Grand Street, in fact an extension of Grand Street, and would join at the north end of Beatty Drive. Yes, this does cost money, but let us

use existing roadways, and structures that would be adequate to effect these changes. We do need better access to the shopping center. We do need a better bridge over the railway tracks coming off the Mission/Abbotsford Bridge. We need better access to the waterfront than what we have now. The downside is that the existing industrial park would be squeezed out over the years. Make it so that these businesses have full access available to them to relocate to the new industrial park through incentives. This in turn would allow a street mall on First Avenue for the three blocks of business in downtown. An investment of this nature is far better than the district buying and developing land on the waterfront. Let private investors develop and do that because that is what they do. The municipality’s real responsibility is to see that it is done correctly. So why not construct something that is going to be beneficial for a number of reasons. The downtown area, the shopping area, and the waterfront, will all benefit by this approach to making Mission a more accessible and better community. Ron Wilkes Integral consultants

New tax will not stimulate the economy Editor, The Record: Finance Minister Hansen has said repeatedly that implementing the HST is the best thing he can do to stimulate the economy and create jobs. That is good to know, because when his government finally caves in and abolishes the HST, we expect Minister Hansen to resign immediately. After all, if he thinks the HST is so good, then cancelling it must be really bad, and a finance minister with any integrity would never put himself in the position of harming his own economy,

right Colin? But since he believes the HST is so terrific, how about some specific examples of where this type of tax has proven itself an effective economic and job creating tool? Here in Canada, we have the HST in Newfoundland, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick, the three perennially poorest provinces in the nation. Newfoundland, even with the discovery of offshore oil, has the highest unemployment rate in the country at 15 per cent. Nova Scotia has no significant industry and a $9 billion budget deficit in a province of

900,000 people ($10,000 of overspending for every man, woman and child in one year alone) – despite their terrific HST. No economic boom there. They are now raising it from 13 per cent to 15 per cent on July 1 to celebrate Canada Day – the same day B.C. and Ontario get theirs — soon to be renamed “HST Day” in honour of the privilege of having one. Let’s try Europe, where the HST (called a Value Added Tax – VAT) is such a great economic booster that several governments there are teetering on the verge of collapse. Greece is the most prominent

example, but is by no means the exception. There, the VAT is 19 per cent and is applied to everything, including food and groceries. It is estimated that nearly 80 per cent of Greeks do not pay taxes anymore. Bribes are common place, and the underground economy has grown larger than the main economy. In Britain, the VAT was 14 per cent. Direct losses due to VAT avoidance there were estimated to be between $20 billion and $30 billion per year. When you factor in lost income taxes not reported due to the VAT avoidance (can’t report the income or you’ll be

caught cheating on the VAT), the losses are nearly inconceivable. The British Labour Government’s solution? Raise the VAT to 17 per cent and add it to groceries. Starting to see why they lost the recent election? In some other European countries, like Denmark and Hungary, the VAT is 25 per cent. It is so high governments hide it in the price of goods and services to keep the people from revolting. Now that the Euro zone is collapsing under excessive taxation, stagnant growth, and government overspending to compensate, can we at least

agree the HST there didn’t create the economic boom the Liberals are trying to sell us on here? So just where is this magical HST land where the economy is booming and jobs are being created due to such a tax? Alberta – woops – no takers. Manitoba? Wrong again. Saskatchewan? Nope – they tried it in 1991 and got rid of it, and the government who gave it to them. They got to try the benefits of this wonder tax for 1.5 years and threw it out the first chance they got.

NOTICE OF LOWER WATER LEVELS: HAYWARD LAKE RESERVOIR Ruskin Dam Crossing Closed June 7-25 Starting June 4, 2010, the water level in the Hayward Lake reservoir will be lowered to accommodate maintenance work on the Ruskin Dam spillway gates. Lowering of the reservoir will begin on Friday, June 4 to reach the elevation of 34.5 metres in four days.

Try leaving your car at home and pedal to work during Bike to Work Week from May 31 to June 6. Cycling to work is healthy; it allows people to burn calories instead of gas. Health benefits derived from cycling help increase employee productivity and morale. Commuter cycling is great for the envi-

Lower than average water levels will expose steep shorelines and slippery slopes along Hayward Beach and the entire reservoir shore. The beach can be used with caution but the water will not be accessible. The Hayward Lake boat launch will be closed. The picnic grounds will remain open and available for public use. Trails will remain open; however hikers will be unable to complete the Railway/Reservoir Trail loop due to the closure of both the Ruskin Dam and the Floating Bridge at Hairsine Creek. An environmental management plan has been developed to protect ﬁsh and wildlife during the lower water levels. The water will begin rising again on Friday, June 25.

Rampage silver in tourney

Hatzic team impressive at Valley finals BY

NEIL CORBETT

Mission Record

The Hatzic Crusaders had four athletes bring home medals from the Fraser Valley Track and Field Championships, which were held in Abbotsford last week. Dyson Barnes was a double medallist, winning gold in the 400m hurdles and silver in the 110m hurdles for senior boys. He also made the final race in the 400m dash, placing fifth. Barnes is no stranger to the podium, and last year his track exploits took him all the way to a Canadian 400m hurdles championship, and the world track and field championships in Italy, where he advanced to the semi-finals before being eliminated. Now a year older, he is a favourite to win another national title. The four athletes who qualified will now move on to compete at the provincial championships, being held on June 4-5 at Swangard Stadium in Burnaby. His Hatzic track coach Mike MacBlain is impressed with how Barnes goes about his business, noting that he is also a Hatzic hockey academy athlete who has a good shot at playing junior hockey. “He works extremely hard in everything he does,” said MacBlain. In the throwing events, it was Grade 8 Adam Lambert winning double gold, in both the shot put and discus. His big brother Jesse Lambert competes as a senior, and took silver in the shot put, while placing fourth in discus. Jesse won a provincial shot put championship last year, but he will compete as a senior now that he is in Grade 10, and will be up against more mature competitors. “It would be nice to see him medal – that would be awesome,” said the coach. “He’s got two more years

after this one, competing at the same level.” MacBlain said the younger Lambert could duplicate big brother’s provincial title. “I think Adam’s got to be the favourite going in there (to Swangard). He’s the Fraser Valley champ, and he’s getting better every meet.” Jason Czerwinski won gold in the junior boys triple jump, giving the Crusaders a total of four golds and two silvers. “He’s a good athlete. With him it’s natural talent – he’s got springs for legs,” said MacBlain. He is also just in Grade 10. “This year he’s going to get the experience, see what the provincials are all about, and then next year

he’ll have a good shot at it. Hatzic had only eight athletes qualify for the Valleys, but the small team finished a respectable 10th place out 50 schools that participated. The Heritage Park Highlanders also had an eightmember team. Their best finishes were Lauren Bernardi in the senior girls 400m dash, and Colton Brown in the senior boys triple jump, as both athletes finished seventh. The winning school was Walnut Grove (Langley), followed by W.J. Mouat in second and Abbotsford Christian. The top schools all sent large teams of more than 50 athletes who had qualifed at regional meets.

The Mission Rampage won a silver medal at a pee wee fastball tournament in Tsawwassen recently. Kyla Borchert and Paige Kleindienst put forth great pitching performances, with the team displaying amazing skill and effort in the field and at the plate. Sammi Baillet’s opening game home run started off a great show at the plate. Borchert hit a grand slam out of the park in game three, with another home run in game five. Gillian Forstbauer hit one past the fence at centre field in game four, earning her two RBIs. She followed that up with a three-run dinger in the playoff round. The Rampage finished the round-robin undefeated, earning them a bye straight to the second round of the playoffs where they had a fabulous game, winning 15-0. This advanced them to the championship game against Gibson’s Crusherz where Rampage played extremely well, but had to settle for the silver.

A great way to spend quality time with your kids L

ast week I touched on the subject of fathers fishing with their children. I know there are some Dads out there who just flat out do not like this activity. While I can accept that fact, I do not see it as an excuse for not spending time with your children while they are fishing. Until children are old enough to get a job and driver’s licence, their opportunities to take full advantage of this sport are extremely limited. This is where Moms and Dads – and for the most part Dads – come into the picture. Someone needs to pick the location, drive the car there and back, bait the hooks, remove the fish, untangle the lines, be the chief cheerleader, cater the lunch, and pilot the boat. If you think you are going to get quality fishing in while doing all of the above you are mistaken; but what you receive is some of the best bonding time you may ever get with your kids. If that is not reason enough to take time out of your life to spend with them, I

don’t know what is. In three weeks there will be two family oriented family fishing derbies; will we see you there? The second annual Alouette Fish Derby is on Sunday, June 13. Tickets are available for the Maple Ridge Chamber of Commerce, 604-4633366.

Local band 1066 start things off at the Envision Twilight Concert Series on June 2 at Fraser River Heritage Park. The outdoor concerts take place every Wednesday and Friday until the end of August. SUBMITTED PHOTO

The Envision Twilight Concert Series returns June 2 celebrating its 20th year at Fraser River Heritage Park. The summer series of outdoor concerts runs Wednesdays and Fridays from 7 p.m. to 8 p.m. until the end of August. This celebration is in conjunction with the 25th anniversary of the Fraser River Heritage Park, and the 30th anniversary of the Mission Heritage Association (MHA) whose vision three decades ago led to the preservation and development of the park as it is today. The popular Celtic pub band 1066 kicks off the series Wednesday evening. 1066 emerged from a jam session in Abbotsford in November of 1985. Since then, the band has performed on television, stage, fairs, conventions and pubs on both sides of the border to appreciative audiences. Their irreverent, light-hearted style covers a broad range of the musical spectrum. They have shared the stage with such diverse luminaries

as Irish Rover Will Millar, jazz piano phenom Michael Kaeshammer, Big Band leaders Dal Richards and Mart Kenney, and banjo virtuoso Fast Eddie Erickson. Leader Phil Aldridge hails from Liverpool, England and is a longtime resident of Mission. The rest of the band are Abbotsford residents and have their roots in Scotland, England, Denmark and Canada. The band’s diverse musical background stems from Celtic folk, rock, classical, jazz, blues and musical theatre. 1066 is also celebrating its 25th anniversary as a band. This first concert is sponsored by the MHA and is in honour of all the past board members and volunteers who have played a part in the evolution of Fraser River Heritage Park. The Blackberry Kitchen is open and the Log Cabin Café returns, a full service concession run by the Optimist Club of Mission. Bill McAuley and John Vissers return to host the concerts.

Popular local band back in town BY ASHLEY WRAY Black Press

Two months of male-bonding on a tour bus across Canada is going to leave locals with an electric performance. Mission band Faber Drive has been on the road since the beginning of April, performing with Hedley, Stereos and Fefe Dobson, and they’re leaving the best for last – a show at the Clarke Foundation Theatre next week, followed by a gig in Vancouver. “We’ve been getting tighter and tighter as a band so we can put on the best show for our hometown fans – it’s why we’re ending at home,” says bass player Jeremy “Krikit” Liddle, thrilled to be coming home. The pop-punk group is made up of three more 20-somethings, Dave Faber, on lead vocals and rhythm guitar; Jordan “JP” Pritchett, on lead guitar; and Andrew Stricko, on drums. Together, they’ve released two CDs, received a Juno nomination, and as of last week, a nomination for an Much Music Video Award. They’re up against Abbotsford’s Hedley for best pop video for their single, G-Get Up and Dance. Since starting the band in

Faber Drive plays at the Clarke Theatre tomorrow night.

2004, Faber, who graduated from Hatzic Secondary, and Krikit, who graduated from Heritage Park Secondary, have been the only constant members. They released their first album, Seven Second Surgery, in May 2007, which had a predominantly alternative rock feel. Their second album, Can’t Keep a Secret, came out in November. It has more of an electric vibe, and falls into the cat-

egory of pop-punk. Making that transition into electropop and dance music was the band’s goal. The shift in musical direction came after a night on the town in Ottawa. A DJ put on one of their songs, but by the time it hit the chorus, everyone had cleared the dance floor, Krikit recalls. “We really wanted to create a party song, something people could dance to.” The experience led them

SUBMITTED PHOTO

to write and record the album’s first release, G-Get Up and Dance, which has since gone over double platinum on iTunes. “We took a risk and it turned out to be our biggest song,” said Krikit. On the latest album, the group teamed with some local talent, including producers Brian Howes and Dave Genn, who have both worked with Hedley; producer Dave Ogilvie, who has worked with

Nine Inch Nails; and singer Josh Ramsay of Marianas Trench. One of their tracks even features local country singer Jessie Farrel. There are a variety of songs in the new album, but the band didn’t stray too far from its original sound. “It’s important to really be a part of the Canadian music community, opposed to just being a band that writes and plays,” says Krikit. The group has started writing another album, and hope to be in the studio by October or November. Krikit expects their next CD to be a combination of the first two, maintaining the keyboard and “cool effects.” Following this tour, they have a month of down time, and then it’s festival season. They will also be hitting the road again in the fall for another tour. Their upcoming performance at the Clarke Theatre, 33700 Prentis Ave., takes place Friday, May 28. Special guests are Jessie Labelle, The Latency and These Kids Wear Crowns. Tickets are $25 at all Ticketmaster outlets. Doors open at 7 p.m. Show starts at 7:30 p.m. For more information check out www.myspace. com/faberdrive.

THE MISSION RECORD – THURSDAY, MAY 27, 2010

Mission community calendar listings ORDINARY PEOPLE-SERVING OTHERS Throughout the Bible, our Lord was always using ordinary people in His ministry. Peter and his brother Andrew were fishermen from Galilee. John and James were also fishermen, and Matthew was a tax collector. These ordinary people were very special to our Lord, and He is still using ordinary people to do His will today. To God there is no class distinction between a well-todo person or someone who is poor. Our status in life or our attractiveness mean little to God. Our Lord and Savior looks into our hearts and He knows our innermost thoughts and desires. He knows the true motives for our every action, and although we have all sinned, He loves and accepts us just as we are. We should return God’s merciful love by serving Him with all our heart. As ordinary people, perhaps someday we may hear our Lord say to us; “Well done my good and faithful servant, come in and share my happiness!”

Revitalizing through murals Have you ever noticed the murals painted on the sides of buildings in town? Did you know that the District of Mission municipal council fully supports the creation of murals that depict a local heritage theme, throughout the municipality? In fact the district has created a policy which addresses this issue. Policy LAN.43 states that a mural is defined as being an artistic painting which does not promote any commercial enterprise and is located on an exterior wall. If you are interested in painting a mural on the side of your building you must submit an application to paint or apply to the Mural Liaison Committee along with scaled preliminary

coloured plans or drawings of the proposed mural, and also include the following information: • Identification of the building location where the mural is to

be placed • Names, addresses and telephone numbers of the property and business owners • Property and business owners’ signatures authorizing

the mural project • A proposed mural maintenance plan agreed to by the proponents • Evidence of support from the relevant stakeholders.

Bernadette moved with her family to Maillardville B.C.in 1945 where she met the love of her life Alphonse (Alf) Knapp. They were married in 1949. Alf always had farming in his blood so in 1953 they moved to Port Coquitlam on a farm raising, as well as cattle, two beautiful children, Bob and Lorraine. Bernadette was amazing how she could work hard on the farm, garden, keep house and at the same time looking perfectly groomed and beautiful. In 1972 Alf and her moved to Osoyoos for a short stint of retirement before they bought the Long Horn Hotel in Grand Forks. Besides working in the hotel Bernadette was an agent of the Greyhound bus depot which was located in their hotel. In 1983 the call of farming returned to Alf and she was back to farming at his side until he pasted away in 1996. Seven years after Alf’s passing Bernadette moved to Mission to be closer to her son Bob where she spent her last years. Bernadette was an excellent wife, mother, grandmother, sister and loved dearly by all who knew her. She is survived by her children Bob (Karen) Knapp, Lorraine (Fernando) Rodrigues, grandchildren Chris, Julie (Matt) Zyda, Cory (Alannah) Knapp, Janine (Will) Isaak, and Rick (Claudia) Rodrigues; great grandchildren Brooklyn and Jacob Zyda; sister Armande and brother Clement and sisterin-law Renee.
