PSIT review conclusions queried Apology was a debt owed for five months: Stevens BY ADRIAN MACNAIR Mission Record
Mayor James Atebe was on the defensive at public hearing Monday as Mission residents questioned the findings of the Public Safety Inspection Team (PSIT) property file review. Under scrutiny were 70 homeowners who were levied fees but did not pay. The $115,000 review, which included $78,000 in fee reversals, found there was insufficient evidence to prove that 15 of those
homeowners previously fined met the “evidentiary test identified” under the Controlled Substance Bylaw to be marijuana grow opAtebe erations. Rick Goos, one of the 15 who had his $5,200 fee overturned, said the violation of his individual rights for the interest of public safety wasn’t justified. He asked the mayor how many grow-op related fires there were in Mission last year. When Atebe said he didn’t know, Goos then asked how many fires were started by Christmas lights. “So my question to council, is Christmas next?” Another resident whose property has been declared a controlled
substance property said, “I don’t feel like I’ve had my day in court. I don’t feel like I’ve been able to offer witnesses and evidence to defend myself in this matter.” Atebe acknowledged mistakes have been made, both apologizing to homeowners and asking district staff to draft a letter to homeowners explaining the need for PSIT and an apology. He also said he would write an open letter to the community personally. Coun. Jenny Stevens’ motion to review the criteria used to investigate properties suspected of being grow-ops passed unanimously, adding an apology to the innocent “is a debt we’ve owed for five months.” She said the 15 properties whose fees were reversed received individual communication, and it’s
only fair similar action would be taken for the rest. “We’ve never publicly exonerated them,” she said. But Coun. Mike Scudder said just because PSIT did not designate a home a controlled substance property “does not mean there was a total absence of any kind or innocence was established.” He added one of the false rumours being spread is that residences were inspected without any evidence. Coun. Paul Horn said a review of the criteria and an apology are in keeping with previous council recognition that people need to maintain their dignity throughout the process. See FEES Page 2

He said a PSIT probe should have been done after the first year, but Mission will continue to strive for a balance in community safety issues. “Houses that house grow ops instead of families are not building our community,” he said. The PSIT review head, deputy chief administrative officers Paul Gipps, said the district has to communicate better with the public, adding they have to be more accurate in their ability to predict potential grow ops. One of the key issues identified in the March report was a need to have a communications specialist with PSIT when they visit homes. There were 499 properties inspected as possible grow-ops between April 2008 when PSIT began and the end of 2010 when the program was put on indefinite deferral, with 216 homes (43 per cent) found not to be a “controlled substance property.” At the program’s inception, the district expected 85 per cent of properties

would be assessed fees, which would cover the operating costs. But only 71 per cent of properties were levied fees in 2008; 61 per cent in 2009, and just 49 per cent in 2010. Mission was charging $4,900 for the inspection with a $300 administration fee, and $250 for additional remediation inspections. The report also looked at fees in surrounding municipalities. Abbotsford, which charges $3,500 with a $1,000 follow-up and $1,000 refundable security deposit, is currently under review. Langley charges between $5,000 and $7,000; Chilliwack charges up to $3,650 including re-inspection; Surrey is $3,600; and Port Coquitlam charges $6,500. The bylaw triggering a PSIT inspection is based on electricity consumption of 93 kilowatt hours per day — three times the normal usage — in 70 per cent of the cases. RCMP investigations account for the remainder. District staff will now explore the possibility of reviewing the 187 cases in which homeowners paid fees, and will prepare a report for July.

Making the business case for waterfront development BY NEIL CORBETT Mission Record
A document prepared for Mission by Patrick Cotter Architect demonstrated the numbers for developing the waterfront are solid. NEIL CORBETT PHOTO
Developing Mission’s waterfront makes good business sense, according to a recently released report by the district. “The business case demonstrated it is financially viable to do the development,” noted economic development officer Stacey Crawford. “The fact the numbers make sense is critical.” He noted that developing 150 acres in the flood plain will require $1.4 billion from investors, and includes road realignments, fill requirements, potential soil remediation as well as the water, sewer, hydro and other services that any development needs. Patrick Cotter Architect prepared the document for the municipality. Sharon Fletcher, the district’s director of planning, said their approach was to evaluate the business case as though one developer was in charge of the entire 150-acre project. Of course, several developers will likely be involved, with residential, commercial and other projects being constructed over a period of 30 to 40 years. Cotter found a developer could reasonably expect a 20 per cent return on investment. He also recommended the project would be most
viable if it were done in phases, and identified the first portion as the Horne Street corridor, from the south end of Horne at the waterfront, north to the downtown. Fletcher explained that the corridor will eventually tie together two commercial areas — the waterfront and First Avenue. The next major step in the planning process is to prepare a land use plan. Fletcher said the district needs to continue with a systematic approach. “This is a massive development project — it’s bigger than False Creek,” she noted. “You need to do it right.” Fletcher said the land use planning process would be very public — much like the official community plan. She believes the waterfront should be built to serve the people of Mission first, with tourism a byproduct. “You build it for the community, then let the tourists come and enjoy it with us,” she said. Fletcher said potential developers are watching the district’s approach, and waiting to see the landuse plan. “There’s been interest from developers for a number of years.” The work to date, and the public input, will be presented to council at a future meeting. A process for land-use planning will need to be set out and approved by councillors.

Public Safety Inspection Program (PSIT)
On January 24, 2011, the District of Mission put the Public Safety Inspection program on deferral as a result of public concerns and initiated a full review of the program. The review completed in March made a series of recommendations that were adopted by Council, which can be viewed at www.mission.ca. One of those recommendations was to review all PSIT-led open files. This has now been completed. The District has determined that 15 of these properties did not meet the evidentiary test. These properties have had their fees reversed and a written apology has been issued. The continuation of the PSIT program, if at all, is going to be considered by Council in July. I am certain we will carefully weigh the lessons learned from the review with the intended goals of the program. I feel it is necessary at this time to communicate directly to the people of Mission to clarify some misunderstandings about the Public Safety Inspection Program. Mission’s program is very similar to the many programs in the Lower Mainland and is in response to the demands of families and people of our community wanting their neighbourhoods rid of controlled substance properties. The Province made changes to legislation to give the many municipalities dealing with this issue the tools necessary to be more effective. The District does NOT charge fees to properties inspected that do not have evidence that the property was used as a controlled substance property, regardless of the amount of electricity used. The fees charged are not designed to create revenue for the municipality. The fees are intended to cover the cost of the program only, so it is not supported by general taxation. The program is being reviewed and, if it is the will of Council, the program will continue with the improvements identified in the March report and the comments received from the public through the review process. In closing, I want to assure the citizens of Mission that the program is intended to create safe neighbourhoods. There are numerous unsafe activities associated with controlled substance properties and we want to find and discourage them in your neighbourhood. Thank you for your patience and understanding while we redesign the Public Safety Inspection Program. Yours truly,
James Atebe MAYOR P.O. Box 20, 8645 Stave Lake Street, Mission, B.C. V2V 4L9 Phone (604) 820-3700 Fax (604) 826-1363 & (604) 820-3715 Web Site: www.mission.ca E-mail: info@mission.ca

Staffing reductions made to balance $55M budget BY NEIL CORBETT Mission Record
The Mission Board of Education approved a $55 million budget that will start digging the district out of a $1 million hole. School board budgets are supposed to be balanced by law, but the 2011-2012 budget allows for a $350,000 surplus. A similar surplus over the next three years will allow the district to pay back a $1 million deficit from the past budget year. The surplus is achieved through staff cuts. Secretary-treasurer Carrie McVeigh told trustees that approximately 90 per cent of the board’s expenses are salaries and benefits. The net reductions will be: • 14 FTEs (full-time equivalents) for teachers • 3.4 FTEs for secretaries (affecting eight people) • 3.9 FTEs for education assistants (affecting seven employees)
• 3.4 FTEs for youth care workers (affecting four employees) • 1.2 FTEs for Supervision Assistants (affecting nine employees) The district had a $1.9 million surplus in its operations budget in 2003, but has had deficits every year since, with the exception of 2005-2006. McVeigh noted that declining enrolment has caused financial problems for the district, which gets provincial funding on a perpupil basis. According to demographic statistics, enrolment is predicted to bottom out in 2012, and begin climbing in 2016. There are also going to be staff increases in some areas. Grounds maintenance was cut too much last year, and 0.5 FTE will be added for the coming school. There will also be three new Aboriginal education assistant positions. The latter will be funded through “targeted dollars,” designated to boost graduation rates
for aboriginal students, McVeigh explained. Revenues from the district are almost completely dependent on provincial funding, with 96.4 per cent coming from the Education Ministry. Two per cent comes from international students, and the balance from other sources. According to the budget, the district will take in $55,077,000 and spend all but $350,000. That will go toward the $1 million deficit from the 2010-2011 budget. Board Vice-Chair Carol Hamilton said the district should continue to explore opportunities to have foreign students attend in Mission, because the district is reliant on this revenue source to balance its budgets. Trustee Randy Cairns noted that the level of funding from the province is not adequate. Hamilton agreed, and said the public should be encouraged to write MLAs and the Education Ministry to increase funding for schools.

Chief Larry Watkinson, starting in June, firefighters will be visiting local homes on weekends, in addition to weeknights. The goal, he said, is to see every home in the district protected by a working smoke alarm. If there isn’t one in the home, firefighters will install a unit, leave one for the homeowner to place, or provide new batteries, free of charge.
Members will also leave home fire safety check sheets. In its inaugural year, 209 homes were inspected, and of those, seven per cent did not have a working alarm, and department personnel either installed or left a unit. In 26 per cent, smoke alarms were present, and four per cent had dead batteries that firefighters replaced. The Hot Summer’s Night campaign will run July 5 and Aug. 23. The full-time firefighters will conduct inspections during the day on weekends, while the oncall complement will undertake weeknight evening visits, similar to last year.
An impetus for this action, said Watkinson, was last year’s changes to the B.C. Fire Code legislation which now states all residential buildings must have working and installed smoke detectors. The assistant chief wants residents to know this isn’t an enforcement-style endeavour, merely a safety tool. Smoke alarms are a key early warning device, and when combined with family escape plans and general fire safety knowledge, people are much more likely to be safer if a fire ever breaks out, he continued. Smoke alarms are a sound you can save lives with, Watkinson added.

OPINION
Published and printed by Black Press Ltd. at Mission at 33047 First Ave., V2V 1G2
A good appointment Former B.C. premier Gordon Campbell will be Canada’s next high commissioner to Great Britain (in other words, the ambassador). While this has caused some snarky comments in B.C., where Campbell’s popularity remains on par with a snake’s belly, this is a good appointment. Campbell served as B.C. premier for nine years, and was the first premier since Bill Bennett to win three consecutive terms in office. He did so during some challenging times. When he assumed office in 2001, the B.C. economy was coming out of a recession and badly needed a shot of confidence. When he stepped down earlier this year, the economy had weathered another recession, although it may not weather the fury over the HST, which cost Campbell his job and may well cost his party the government. But Campbell’s overall track record on job creation, economic development, infrastructure, the 2010 Winter Olympics and debt management was quite good. Perhaps most importantly, he is a visionary — he isn’t afraid to think differently, and while he sometimes gets off base, he often has the ability to see a new approach to a problem. While those who are upset with the BC Liberals may not like this appointment, they need to look beyond provincial politics. Campbell is a capable individual who will represent Canada very well in the U.K., which remains a very important trading partner and one of Canada’s major allies in Europe. It is also home to our system of government and the Royal Family, who remain strongly linked to Canada. He is a deserving candidate for this appointment. It is very significant that a former B.C. premier will take up this important post. - Langley Times

Asia-Pacific project marches on H ere are a few items that didn’t make the daily news cycle as B.C. residents prepared for the long-awaited summer of 2011 to begin. • After her meeting with Prime Minister Stephen Harper in Ottawa last week, Premier Christy Clark delivered a luncheon speech to the Economic Club of Toronto. Her big talking point for the speech was the rise of the Asia-Pacific region, “the fastest-growing middle class in the history of humanity.” The theme ran through her pitch to the federal government for a share of Ottawa’s largest-ever shipbuilding contract, and her recent meeting with western premiers in Yellowknife. No word on how Clark’s enthusiasm for the west as Canada’s economic engine of the future went over with the Bay Street crowd. • After the speech, Clark took the wheel of a Chevy Volt electric car for a spin around Toronto with a GM Canada vice-president riding shotgun. She pronounced the car “fantastic
technology.” This is pertinent as B.C. residents get ready to pay the latest increase in B.C.’s carbon tax. Effective July 1, the tax on a litre of gasoline rises from 4.45 cents to 5.56, with comparable increases to other carbon fuels. Clark has inherited Gordon Campbell’s aggressive climate change-clean energy agenda, and it’s not yet clear what will become of it. She has committed to the last consumer carbon tax increase in 2012 To (up to 6.67 cents on a litre of gas), but the fate of the big hydroelectric push remains uncertain. Those plug-in electric cars need to start selling before Campbell’s gamble of developing increasingly costly electricity starts to pay off. One potential competitor is natural gas-powered vehicles, taking advantage of huge new shale gas discov-
eries in B.C. and elsewhere. • Campbell’s pending appointment as Canada’s high commissioner in the United Kingdom should warm the hearts of conspiracy theorists. The story broke when Clark was in Ottawa, and when reporters asked for her take on the appointment, her first comment was that he’ll be a big help in negotiating a free trade agreement with the European Union. Students of Bill Vander Zalm will know that he sees m the harmonized sales tax and EU trade as an effort to impose world government and set B.C.’s sales tax rate in Europe. Early in his goofy antiHST campaign, Vander Zalm claimed this was plan B for world government after the conspirators failed to impose a global carbon tax. If the HST is a conspir-

acy, it’s a mighty big one. Finance Minister Kevin Falcon never tires of reminding people that 140 countries already have value-added taxes, including China and those other Asia-Pacific tigers that are dominating the world economy. • By last year, there were 94,000 international students in K-12, post-secondary and language schools in B.C. According to the advanced education ministry, if considered an export service, international education is B.C.’s fifth largest export, accounting for seven per cent of exports from the province. Meanwhile in B.C., discussion of international trade still tends to revolve around lumber and logs. And according to a recent poll, Vander Zalm is still considered by many to be an authority on trade and taxes. It’s time to join the world’s adult conversation.

YOUR VIEWS Aren’t mayor and council the spokespeople? Editor, The Record: Re: New position to address ‘communications deficit,’ June 23 edition. The situation demands it, says Mayor James Atebe. A spinmeister to oversee every jot and tittle emanating from municipal hall. My word! I thought the mayor and council were the spokespeople for the district. It can’t be working out so well, as now we need a wordsmith to tell us how blooming marvelous things are here in Mission? An expert communication mouthpiece with a tall order: Make the bad news go away. Ten district departments “will contribute financially” to the $88,000 cost. Will the mayor and council dig deep to come up with the coin to cover the benefits package? (The new hire will, no doubt, thank each one of them personally.) But hey, listen up all you nattering nabobs of negativism (to borrow a phrase from William Safire), just read the lyrics to Frank Sinatra’s Too Marvelous for Words. This could be Mission’s mantra, and could raise self-esteem. Or then again, it might possibly backfire with all the VIPs at municipal hall thinking of us as groupies and thinking themselves as celebrities, each one demanding their very own publicist like Hollywood stars. That won’t do. E. Hanlon Mission

Greener way to heat homes offered to FortisBC customers BY JEFF NAGEL Black Press
Just as households can opt to pay more for green electricity, FortisBC is now offering to charge its customers more to support renewable natural gas projects and cut their carbon footprint. Those who sign on will pay about $4 extra per month to have 10 per cent of their home’s natural gas designated as from biogas sources, which avoids the extraction of fossil fuel gas. The methane is initially being captured at a landfill in Salmon Arm and generated from cattle manure at Catalyst Power Inc.’s new anerobic digester in Abbotsford. It’s upgraded to pipeline quality before being pumped into the gas utility’s network. More biomethane is expected to flow into the gas grid from Metro Vancouver sewage treatment plants in the future. The offering is billed as a way to choose a greener more sustainable way to heat homes and take action on climate change. “It’s an innovative approach that allows their customers to take action on climate change in a simple and cost-effective way,” said James Tansey, CEO of Offsetters, a carbon

management firm that has endorsed the offering as carbon-neutral. FortisBC (formerly Terasen Gas) estimates the program will save 5,000 tonnes of greenhouse gases in the first year, equal to taking 1,000 cars off the road each year. The program will initially run on a first-come first-served basis. “There’s limited supply of biogas for renewable natural gas,” FortisBC spokesman Marcus Wong said, adding it could be opened up to more customers or larger proportions of biogas use as supplies increase. There’s no locked-in contract
— customers can opt out at any time at no cost. Subscribers pay 10 per cent less in carbon tax on their gas bills, because B.C.’s carbon tax applies on natural gas but not on carbonneutral sources. It’s the first program of its kind in North America. Biogas so far costs more to produce than regular natural gas. FortisBC is expected to sign an agreement to buy biogas from Metro Vancouver’s Lulu Island sewage treatment plant at $13.40 per gigajoule — nearly triple the current market price of regular natural gas.

Salsa star from Mission shines
Thank You!!
The teen dancer battled through a foot injury to win first place BY ADRIAN MACNAIR Mission Record
A diminutive 17-yearold who was in high school only a year ago, is now a world salsa champion. And she did it with a broken bone in her foot. Jessica Shatzko, along with her partner Alfonso Caldera of Vancouver’s Bravo Dance Company, won first place in the professional division of the Portland World Salsa Championship, June 10 to 12, defeating finalists from California and Venezuela. What makes her performance all the more remarkable is that she’s only been dancing salsa for one year, says her grandfather, Nick Borzelli. Shatzko is the protégée of two-time World Salsa Champion Caldera, who thinks she’s a natural. As part of their first prize finish, Shatzko and Caldera won round-trip air and hotel accommodation to San Diego for the U.S. Open Salsa

Congress on July 7. Unfortunately, she might be unable to go due to an injury. During the Portland preliminaries she broke a bone in her foot, but battled through the break to win.
A graduate of Hatzic secondary last year, she now dances seven days a week and teaches in Vancouver with Caldera’s company. Shatzko has been dancing since she was three, with skills in ballet, tap
(she was on the national team when she was 15 and 16), jazz, hip hop and contemporary. She’s also appeared in music videos for musical artists Michael Bublé and Emily Harder. Although she’s won some money in competitions and earns a little more teaching, she keeps a part-time job at the Mission London Drugs. Shatzko wants to go on “So You Think You Can Dance Canada”, but dancers have to be 19 years of age. She said Charlene Hartman, a 24-year-old friend from Abbotsford, finished fifth in last season’s show. At 14, Shatzko won a dance invitational in Vancouver among 500 other 16-and-under contestants. “She did pretty good for a little Mission gal,” her grandfather joked. Beginning in September she will teach at Can Dance Studios on First Avenue in Mission. Readers can watch Shatzko dancing with Caldera on YouTube.

Willy Blizzard blasts back into Mission The Vancouver-based indie-roots trio Willy Blizzard will perform Wednesday, July 6 at the Fraser River Heritage Park in Mission as part of the ongoing Envision Twilight Concert Series. Willy Blizzard is back in B.C. after touring Alberta, bringing their alt-folk sound with them. The trio is fronted by former Mission resident John Hough, who ran the Mission coffee house concerts for a number of years. Hard working, hard touring country folk musicians, Willy Blizzard is as tight an outfit as any group on the road today. Touring in support of their 2010 album In From The Cold, their songwriting has been called “truly gorgeous Canadiana” by Penguin Eggs magazine, Canada’s foremost reviewer of contemporary folk music. The acoustic trio performs original material featuring superb vocal harmonies against guitar, banjo and stand-up bass. The Art in the Park program features Aboriginal art of Nancy Arcand; wire jewelry of Carobrian; acrylic artist Donna Duvall; and Lori Friskie’s pressed flower art.

Last weekend was another busy one for both Communities in Bloom and the Farmers Market. Despite those pesky showers, activities carried on. With 75 registrations in hand, the C in B Society‘s eight judges (four teams of 2) set out on June 26 to critique gardens and other projects throughout an area from Silverdale to Lake Errock. Awards Night is July 15 at the Leisure Centre and the event is open to the public. Communities in Bloom’s members have also been participating in strategic planning exercises that have focused on the group’s next three years of activities, including

th
Stewart both national and international competitions. I have the privilege of greeting visitors to the Saturday Market, so I was especially pleased last Saturday to meet two “new” young farmers from Abbotsford. Becky and Chris have purchased a small acreage and have established an organic farm. They are joining a new Canadian focus on organics and the third local venture that has come to my attention this year. Sustainable agriculture is becoming an important Canadian issue. These young farmers’ efforts are
typical examples of a positive trend that deserves encouragement at all government levels. Speaking of support, I repeat my volunteer call for both C in B and the local Market. Specifically, each group wishes to increase its use of social media. With limited resources, they need both free training and a volunteer who could coordinate promotion of their respective programs. Email me at heatherstewart@shaw.ca if you can help. Friday is Canada Day and I’m looking forward to pancakes, flag ceremony and logging display. With “chance of showers,” the new norm for local weather forecasts, I will go prepared with warm clothing and umbrella. Keep blooming, Mission.

It can be extremely difficult not to be defensive when we feel we are being attacked, especially when we are sure we are right. But being defensive usually puts others on the defensive and leads both sides attacking each other more vigorously. The best way to keep others from being defensive is not to offer any resistance to their attacks; truly turn the other cheek. This can be hard to do when we feel we are right. We should resist the idea that we are absolutely right, and see this as a form of egocentrism. Consider that the other person may be right, and we are wrong after all. Even if we are right, so what? Why be so concerned with being right? Let down your defenses. Resistance doesn’t protect you, it only insures that you will have a good fight on your hands. Consider Jesus’ advice: Resist not evil; but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also. And if any man will sue thee at the law, and take away thy coat, let him have thy cloak also. And whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go with him twain. Give to him that asketh thee, and from him that would borrow of thee turn not thou away (Matthew 5:39-42). A soft answer turneth away wrath: but grievous words stir up anger. K.J.V.

Abby reggae band rocks From WILLY Page 12 Then on Friday, July 8 from 7 to 8 p.m., Twilight welcomes back the energetic and popular Los Amigos. The world rhythms of Los Amigos get crowds moving wherever they play and have given them a reputation for upbeat, energetic shows. Their music captures a wide audience with a lively mix of Latin, rock and reggae. Influences include salsa and merengue, Jamaican reggae and melodic tunes of Canadian rockers like Sam Roberts. In 2006 the band began playing around the Lower Mainland and developed a strong following. They’ve been a hit at halls, community events and house parties from Granville Island to Chilliwack. In 2008 Los Amigos headlined the Abbotsford BerryBeat Festival and opened for reggae rocker Daniel Wesley in front of over 2000 fans at UFV Disorientation. The band released their third album in 2009, a six-song EP of Latin, reggae and rock originals which received praise in the UFV Cascade as well as airplay on CIVL radio. Paul Falardeau, music critic for the Cascade, writes, “Their worldly sound makes these white kids from Abbotsford sound like a grizzled bunch of street performers, fresh off the corner of some foreign capital. My ears couldn’t be happier.” The Art in the Park program features Nancy Arcand, hand-crafted rock candles by Anastasia Greenan; Betty Sandmark’s beaded jewelry; and metal art silhouettes of Sendana Vehabovic. Bring a lawn chair or blanket and join us at the park. The Log Cabin Café and the Blackberry Kitchen are open. Admission is free but donations are encouraged. Your support, along with the generous contributions of sponsors, will ensure that the series continues. For more information call 604-826-0277.

Racers vying for $25K in prize money BY DEAN MURDOCH Record contributor
This weekend’s West Coast ProMod Challenge has been an annual event for a decade and the fans who like door-cars, make sure they head to Mission Raceway. Three classes of very fast cars are competing for close to $25,000 in prize money. There are two main feature classes, the NorthWest Pro Mods and the Canadian Pro Street Association (CPSA). The CPSA has its largest winner’s purse ever this weekend. The pro mods are typically the quicker of the two classes, but this year that may not happen. The two classes are similar in rules and car types, but tend to attract a different type of racer. The pro mods is one of the longest organized groups of racers racing fast cars, while the pro street group has offshoots for those who
prefer the “outlaw” style of racing Both classes have mountain-size engines up to 900 cubic inches, with either turbo or superchargers, and nitrous. The pro mods will be represented by four-time series champion Joe Delehay. He has cut back his schedule this year, but wanted to make sure Mission was one event on the schedule. Besides trying to win the race, his goal is to run an elusive five-second ET. Other cars entered this weekend are Mark Campbell from Edmonton in his new turbocharged ‘37 Chevy, Duane Grosart and his always-popular supercharged ‘55 Chevy, and Edmonton’s Wade Sjostrom driving his new ‘57 Chevy. Drayton Valley, Alta.’s Perry Thyr will compete in his number one car (he has two), a nitrous-equipped 2002 Camaro. Dawson Creek’s Dale Pederson is bringing his wicked-fast turbocharged Monte Carlo to Mission Raceway Park this weekend for the West Coast Pro-Mod Challenge, running July 1-3. See KIDS Page 3

Teach fishing in schools J
ust over a week ago I read a column titled â&#x20AC;&#x153;Fly-fishing touted as a lure for lethargic kids.â&#x20AC;? The column was printed in the Knoxville News Sentinel. That is right, in the heart of Bassville, Tenn., Jefferson Middle School has discovered what I was preaching back when I was a
BUYING
youth fly-fishing club coordinator. Fly-fishing is a great teaching tool that often appeals to marginalized kids. I applaud the faculty of Jefferson for taking the step to make their fly-fishing program an actual course, rather than a one-off extra-curricular activity. In this program, it is the teachers from the school who will be teaching fly casting, knots, and fly tying, after receiving training from experts, in the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency.
OR SELLING
Why is it here in British Columbia, a place where fish and fishing are woven into the fabric, culture, and heritage of this land, we do not teach fishing (both sport and commercial fishing) as part of the curriculum in our schools? The report Fishing on our Lower Mainland lakes is good. For wet (sinking) flyfishing try: Chironomid, Bloodworm, Coachman, American Coachman, Professor, Wooly Bugger, Micro Leach,
Sixpack, Dragonfly Nymph, Halfback, Doc Spratley, Baggy Shrimp, or Zulu. For dry (floating) fly action try: Tom Thumb, Irresistible, Black Gnat, Griffith Gnat, Royal Coachman, or Renegade. For Kokanee try: Red Abbis, Bloodworm, Red Spratley, San Juan Worm, Red Quill, or Double Trude. Our Lower Mainland bass and panfish are fishing well.

Kids Mission boxers tune up competition get in free From RACERS Page 19
The pro street series will possibly have their best ever field this weekend. Mission Raceway has hosted the pro street racers longer than any other race track in the northwest. Racers entered for this weekend include the who’s who from the West Coast. Dale Moznik, winner of the biggest pro street race in North America, and his brother, Roy, will run their nitrousequipped El Caminos. Dale Pedersen from Dawson Creek in his awesome turbocharged Monte Carlo is one of the favourites. Langley’s Dal Sangha in his turbocharged Mustang has always done well at Mission. Seattle’s Garrett Richards with one of the quickest pick-ups in the world will also be here. Ken Sihota from Richmond has a very fast nitrous-powered Firebird, while two other brothers from Kelowna, Kerry and Darryl Stone, will be bringing out their turbocharged ‘68 Camaro and Chevy II. Steve Nicholson is set to debut his new nitrous-powered ‘63 Corvette. Will Mission racer Jay Syvertsen have a car out this weekend? The popular pro street racer crashed his beautiful ‘53 Corvette just over a month ago, but he has one or two other cars in his arsenal, so he may be out. In all there should be at least a dozen pro street competitors trying to win the $4,000 champion’s purse. Rounding out the weekend are the Canada West Doorslammers. This group will field close to 30 cars running from the six-second zone up to the mid eights. The driver to watch in this series is Rob Charlton from Pitt Meadows. He has been in every final round so far this year in five races. Go to www.missionraceway.com for all the info for this weekend. Kids under 12 are free with an adult. Dean Murdoch is the editor of SpeedZone magazine.
Mission’s Leeland Oostenbrink (blue) beat down Counterpunch Boxing Club’s Santiago Abrega in the 75 kg class. BOB FRIESEN PHOTO
A number of Mission boxers performed in their debut bouts this past weekend, while the more seasoned local fighters dominated the Emerald Gloves competition. The Mission City Boxing Club hosted the event June 24 and 25, which saw Jacob Chalkais, Johnny Chalkais, Robby Anger and Brennan Patterson compete for the first time. Two-time Canadian champion, 14-year-old Cody Brown, battled Loui Campegpangan from Queensborough Boxing Club, and despite being three years younger and seven pounds lighter, won the 17-11 decision. Leeland Oostenbrink, 16, fought Ver-
non’s Santiago Abrega, and put on a strong fight, said head coach Dale Gatin. Oostenbrink earned the win with a 12-3 decision. The closest fight of the night went to Matt McIntosh, 20, as he went up against Gurrinder Khabra from New Westminster. After the second round, McIntosh was trailing two points, but rallied in the third to sneak past 7-6. Bout of the night honours went to the Fred Jones and Zach Thomas tilt. Both boxers were heavy hitters and traded shots each round, but by the third Thomas’ cardio caught up with him and Jones started to make headway which resulted in the 21-10 win.

We are so very sad to announce the death of Mike Llewellyn Lewis on June 23, 2011, following complications after surgery for cancer. He was a staunch Welshman, a teacher, sports fan (rugby in particular) and coach. He taught Social Studies at Abby Junior for 31 years while involving himself in the Swim, Karate and Rotary clubs. He was a founding member of the Abbotsford Rugby Club, not only playing for the club and sitting on the executive, but becoming the coach in 2001, and in 2002, he and Mark Ferguson led the Club to the BC 1st Division Championships. He was so proud of this accomplishment He will be sorely missed by Anne, Susan, Jason and his beloved granddaughter, Bailey Fennellow. He will also be much missed by the Lewis clan back in the U.K. His sister Helen, brothers Winsor and Martin, his son Rob, his niece and nephews, and many cousins. He was a no fuss kind of man and at his request there will be no formal funeral but a small gathering of family and close old friends, at 4 pm, Monday July 4th at 32301 Atwater Crescent, Abbotsford... However, what he really wanted was a Bon Voyage celebration to be held at the Rugby Club and details for this will be announced at a later date... Online condolences to the family may be made to: www.wiebeandjeskefh.com
