Father shoots son with crossbow Attempted murder one of charges being pursued Frederick Shields has been charged with attempted murder and aggravated assault, after the Mission man allegedly shot his son

with a crossbow on July 3. The incident happened around 2 p.m. in the 13200 block of Degraff Road,

a rural area east of Mission, after an altercation between the 62-year-old accused and his 36-yearold son. The victim was shot in the forearm and fled to a neighbouring residence with his mother to seek help, according to police.

The neighbour took the victim to hospital and police were called. Shields was still inside the home when Mounties arrived at the residence. He came out without incident and was taken into custody. The crossbow, ammuni-

tion and a number of firearms were found inside the home and seized by police. The victim was treated and released from hospital. Frederick Shields remains in custody until his next court appearance later this month.

There are now sockeye in the Fraser, as another migration to spawning grounds begins.

Big sockeye run possible BY JEFF

It could be another year of swimming dangerously. Or a surprise bumper crop of sockeye salmon.

The first sockeye have arrived in the lower Fraser River to begin their upstream migration. Exactly how big the run will be remains a huge question mark.

The pre-season forecast from the Department of Fisheries and Oceans estimates 11.4 million sockeye should return this summer. But those advance projections have been noto-

riously wrong – dismal runs of less than two million fish in 2008 and 2009 are the subject of a judicial inquiry into the decline of Fraser sockeye. Still, there are hopeful signs. Large numbers of sockeye have been spotted on the west side of Vancouver Island. And near-record numbers of sockeye are being counted by Washington State authorities in the Columbia River. “We’ve got our fingers crossed that there could be a really good run coming back,” said Bob McKamey, president of the Area E Gillnetters Association. Sto:lo fisheries advisor Ernie Crey said the optimism is understandable, but added there needs to be strong local evidence of a healthy run before fishing is approved. “I hope people are right,” he said. “We need to be cautious.” Nor would a big rebound this year necessarily signal sockeye have turned a corner. Sockeye have a fouryear life cycle and this is the year of the huge Adams River run, which is expected to account for many of the incoming salmon. “The return this year is no indication the other years and runs will recover,” said biologist Dr. Alexandra Morton. “For reasons no one can explain yet, this strong Fraser cycle has been less impacted than all the others over the past 10 years.” Because the Adams River sockeye are late runners, a solid picture of this season’s overall sockeye return may not emerge until September.

Controversial development proceeds to public hearing

Celebrating Canada at Fraser River Heritage Park

Meeting set for July 26 for Meadowlands BY CAROL AUN Mission Record

The 94-lot Meadowlands development being proposed at the corner of Stave Lake Street and Dewdney Trunk Road will proceed to public hearing later this month, allowing members of the community a chance to comment on it. Mission councillors unanimously voted to go through the process despite numerous issues, such as engineering requirements, that have yet to be addressed. Most of these requirements must be addressed before adoption, but they’re not needed for a public hearing, explained Barclay Pitkethly, deputy director of planning. Mayor James Atebe agreed. “The developer has given us a unique development and we need to present it to the community,” he said. “The best way to present it is at a public hearing.” Last month the developers presented the plan to more than 280 people at an information meeting at Hatzic secondary school, as requested by council. There were 22 display boards detailing the proposal, including information on site plan/design concept, floor plans and elevations of the homes, landscape plans, servicing plans and ALR buffer treatments. Ten property owners in the area are involved in the development and nine of them are subdividing the property they currently live on for the project. All of them plan to stay in the neighbourhood after Meadowlands is built. At the end of the meeting 228 feedback forms were received, with 206 expressing general support, 15 opposed and seven did not clearly state their position. The Monday, July 26 public hearing meeting starts at 6:30 p.m. inside council chambers at municipal hall.

Council supports development in southwest Mission 25-plus lot subdivision meets OCP and is “green” BY CAROL AUN Mission Record

A new sudivision in Silverdale is proceeding, despite neighbourhood worries about their water supply. Mission council unanimously approved road variances for a 25-plus lot subdivision at the corner of Anderson Avenue and Farrington Street in Silverdale. The paved lanes will be reduced, making way for a 1.2-metre gravel shoulder on three roads, Anderson, Farrington and an internal road in the development. Open drainage ditches will be constructed in place of an underground piped system. This development fits with the Official Com-

munity Plan and takes it one step further by improving the natural environment. Reducing paved surfaces and increasing permeable ones will encourage growth of native plants and help recharge the aquifer. The developers have also worked with Fisheries and Oceans to relocate a creek through the property as part of the subdivision. Reducing paved surfaces is something district planners are already working on and if the bylaw was already in place, this issue would not be before council, said planner Marcy Bond. “But until we get the bylaw adopted, we have to do these variance.” A number of Silverdale

about water because many people in the area are on shallow wells and some have run dry. “What’s the state of the aquifer?” McDonald asked. The system will be engineered to allow water to seep to the aquifer and recharge it, answered Bond, adding “We don’t ask for detailed aquifer studies in rural areas.” Beattie questioned the quality of the water that would result. “The whole idea is to have the water table as high as possible,” explained Norm Berard from Mission Contractors on behalf of the developers. “Vegetable (and gravel) will purify it before it goes back in the ground.” Berard also noted a number of test wells have also been done on the site. “We’ve had people speak at the microphone and say they’re not against development, but they want to see it done the right way,” said Coun. Paul Horn after the public input portion of the meeting was closed. “This is the right way. This allows for filtration of water, natural filtration. It sets an example other can follow — it’s green.” Even with the reduced paved width of the road, there is still “plenty” of room for traffic and it’s less maintenance for the district, Horn added. “This allows water to run into the ground and reduce erosion,” Coun. Mike Scudder said. “This is environmentally friendly and it follows OCP standards,” concluded Atebe.

Silver cross for gallantry Joseph Hine’s quick action saved brother BY

NEIL CORBETT

Mission Record

For pulling his little brother from the path of a car accident, Mission Boy Scout Joseph Hine has been awarded the silver cross for gallantry. It was November of 2008 and Joseph, who was then 11, was walking to school with seven-year-old Jacob. They were at a crosswalk on Cedar Street, at 10th Avenue, and a big 4x4 pickup stopped to let the boys cross the road. But Joseph spotted a van that wasn’t slowing down for them. It was racing straight toward the stopped pickup, in the same lane, and Jacob was in their path. Putting himself in harm’s way, Joseph grabbed his little brother, threw him back to the curb, and got himself clear. The next second there was a earsplitting screech of tires

and the two vehicles collided just a foot away from Jacob. The 4x4 was rammed right through the intersection, coming to rest on the opposite side of the street. It was such close call that the 4x4 driver, who had stopped for them and watched the boys step off the curb, was sure they had been hit. The boys ran to their nearby home and got their mom to call 9-1-1. When Lora Ford checked the accident scene, she found the

4x4 driver was relatively unhurt, but still in shock, saying “I hit the kids.” It made her realize how close it had been. “I gave them hugs and kisses, and I took them out to dinner,” she said. “They could have both been gone, that fast.” On June 15, at the year-end banquet for the Fourth Mission Scout Group, Mayor James Atebe and the area’s top brass in Scouting – Terry Campbell, council field executive; James Bryce,

council commissioner; Lee Hamilton, Three Rivers area commissioner; and Linda Bouchir, 4th Mission group commissioner – presented Joseph with the silver cross. “...his quick thinking, awareness and courage allowed him to save both his own life, and that of his younger brother,” said a press release from the local scouts. “I was really proud to get that,” Joseph, now 13, told The Record.

Real estate slows after rebound BY JEFF

NAGEL

Black Press

Lower Mainland housing prices softened in June after a continued rebound in the first half of 2010 from recession-bottom lows reached more than a year ago. Detached houses sold for a benchmark price of $795,025 in June, up 13.4 per cent from a year ago, the Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver reported. Although the Greater Vancouver real estate prices were up on a yearover-year basis, they actually slid nearly two per cent from May. The weaker prices coincided with a darkening global economic outlook and the July 1 arrival of the harmonized sales tax in B.C., adding to the cost of more expensive new homes. The Fraser Valley Real Estate Board, which includes Mission and Abbotsford, reported benchmark detached houses climbed 9.9 per cent from a year ago to $518,350 in June, although most parts of the region were flat or down slightly from May. Townhouses sold for

a benchmark price of $328,000 in June, up nine per cent from a year ago, while typical condos sold for $246,350, a 6.6 per cent one-year gain. Fraser Valley house prices are now marginally above their previous peak in the spring of 2008, but apartments and townhouses are still short of their all-time highs. June’s real estate sales

were down 5.8 per cent in Greater Vancouver, and 30 per cent off from a year ago. Fraser Valley reported a 23 per cent jump in sales from May – down eight per cent from a year ago. Board president Deanna Horn said the busierthan-expected June sales pace may have been due to lowered mortgage rates and the impending arrival

of the HST. A rebate of up to $26,250 is to ensure buyers of new homes up to $525,000 pay no more tax than they did before the HST when only GST applied. Horn predicts the HST will give new housing in the Fraser Valley a selling advantage because more of its properties sell for less than $525,000.

His scout leader Bouchir, said that in her 16 years of involvement she has never seen the silver cross awarded. “It’s a very high honour.” She kept the award a secret right up until it was announced at last month’s banquet, then sprung her surprise on a kid she has brought along since he started in Beavers. “He’s a very personable, bright young man – he’s a good scout,” she said. “He was absolutely stunned to win the award.” She wasn’t sure when he was nominated for the award, but said the long delay from the incident to the awarding of Joseph’s silver cross is not unusual. There’s a high standard that has to be met. “It’s quite a process. It doesn’t happen overnight.”

OPINION

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

Black Thursday for taxpayers

f your wallet feels decidedly lighter now that Canada Day has come and gone, it’s likely not because you broke the bank on cold beer, steaks for the barbecue or maple leaf T-shirts. For B.C. residents, July 1 heralded the launch of a host of new fees to pay. The mother lode, of course, is the 12-per-cent Harmonized Sales Tax, which kicked in last Thursday on a range of everyday items that were previously exempt from the seven-percent Provincial Sales Tax – such as newspapers, restaurant meals, taxi fees, sports lessons, movie tickets, over-the-counter medications and much more. But the HST isn’t the only added cost forcing folks to dig deeper. Several park-and-ride lots serving the West Coast Express and SkyTrain raised their prices effective July 1. Commuters now pay $3 a day – a 50-per-cent increase from $2 – to park at West Coast Express stations or at the Scott Road SkyTrain station park-and-ride in Surrey. Monthly rates at those stations also rose from $40 to $60. Want to drive to your destination and pay to park the gas guzzler instead? You’ll shell out more too because the 12-percent HST is now added on top of TransLink’s recently tripled 21-per-cent tax. Thanks to the magic of compounding, users now pay a combined tax of 35.52 per cent on pay parking. And don’t forget to factor in the hike in B.C.’s carbon tax at the fuel pump, which rose 1.12 cents on Canada Day to 4.45 cents per litre. If you regularly cross the Golden Ears Bridge, you have another week before TransLink raises the tolls on that span (July 15). About the only thing that hasn’t gone up is B.C.’s minimum wage, which remains stagnant at $8 an hour ($6 an hour for those new to the labour force) – the lowest rate in the country. While there seems to be no end to the justification for higher fees and taxes, B.C.’s lowest income earners haven’t had a raise in nearly a decade. With the financial pinch growing tighter this month, if ever the provincial Liberals needed a feel-good story, it’s now. Boosting the bottom line for minimum wage earners would be a fine start. – The Surrey Leader

seven-per-cent PST as the “only” provincially administered sales tax. What then becomes of B.C.’s Social Services Tax Act, Hotel Room Tax Act, Motor Fuel Tax Act and Tobacco Tax Act? The smile doesn’t say. Tobacco taxes are a point to ponder. One of the few HST provisions that didn’t incite protest was the extension of the provincial portion of sales tax to tobacco products, pushing a pack of coffin nails above $10. Who knew cigarettes were exempt from PST? Well, they were, in Ontario as well as B.C. That’s presumably because B.C. has a separate tobacco tax, which it can still adjust. Some lament the passing of made-inB.C. sales tax breaks such as the one for hybrid vehicles. Dating from early in Premier Gordon Campbell’s climate change phase, the provincial sales tax rebate effectively provided a $2,000 subsidy to Toyota for its popular Prius. Politicians can still make these kinds of trendy gestures, but not with sales taxes. It’s been almost a year since B.C.’s HST plan was revealed, to the particular horror of those living near Alberta. So here’s a fun fact. Over the past year, Alberta has seen an exodus of 5,000 people to other provinces, while B.C. has attracted 7,500 new residents to the HST hellhole. tfletcher@blackpress.ca

Do you take pride in your gardens and property?

YOUR VIEWS Family fearful of falling fireworks Editor, The Record: My wife and I were excited to bring our kids to the park to watch the fireworks on Canada Day. This was my son’s first fireworks, and my daughter’s second. We had been looking forward to this for weeks. When we got to the park, we were a bit surprised to see that the area on the eastern edge of the park directly below the hill wasn’t roped off this year, but we didn’t think too much of it as we set up directly below the hill, about 50 feet from the rope line. I assumed that if it wasn’t roped off, it was a safe place to sit. It turns out it wasn’t. Throughout the fireworks display, still-burning embers were falling to the ground around the audience below the

hill. We thought we were far enough back not to be worried, but we started packing up to watch the show from a safer distance anyway. As I picked my 19 month old daughter up to carry her away, a large burning coal fell less than a foot away from us in a shower of sparks. Luckily, none fell on her, but if I hadn’t just picked her up, she most certainly would have been burned. I’m not writing this letter to complain, or get anyone in trouble. But I do think this is something that the city should be aware of, and I hope they ensure that the appropriate parts of the park are roped off for next year’s fireworks. Brian G. Rice Mission

Meadowlands in wrong location

Letter writer says there should be no public access to area where burning embers fall.

Spill shows clean energy critical Editor, The Record: The horror and feeling of powerlessness I’ve felt while watching the Gulf of Mexico oil spill disaster is something I’m sure many others share. But none of our hands are clean in this matter since we all rely so heavily on petroleum products like gasoline. One answer suggested by many is to turn to electric cars in urban areas. This could

possibly work well in British Columbia where more than 90 per cent of our electricity is produced from clean hydroelectric sources. However, until the United States can find an alternative to burning coal to produce its electricity, any move to electric cars in that country will just be replacing one fossil fuel with another because half of the electricity in the United States is produced from burn-

ing coal. A solution must nevertheless be found, and if that means places where clean electricity can be produced easily, such as British Columbia, are to supply places that cannot, then this must surely be preferable to the nightmare that has unfolded in the Gulf of Mexico.

Neighbouring lot damaged Editor, The Record: During dinner last Saturday evening at our friend’s house at Hatzic Lake, they mentioned they were startled awake the other night. It sounded like someone ran across their roof, opened and slammed a door shut, and ran up the stairs. They got up and looked around but no one was there. Here in B.C., we have a wide array of soil types ranging from hard pan to silt or riverbed sand such as found in the Lower Mainland, which is a mountain river valley that has surface deposits that are less than 3,000 years old. Soils with this condition create difficult performance problems for buildings constructed on them. As the soil water content increases, it swells and heaves upward. As the soil water content decreases, it shrinks and the ground surface recedes and pulls away from the foundation. These problems are of particular concern in buildings with standard shallow founda-

tions. A lot of homes are being built on expansive soil — earth that swells when it rains — without adequate safeguards. The district, through its licence and permit departments, are in the business of inspecting buildings to make sure they are adequately constructed and are safe, thus the “site preload requirements.” Often it is desirable to preload to induce settlement before a structure is built. The application of a preload will compact the soil so only a small amount of settlement is observed when the desired foundation is built.. But when it does this, it displaces the soils in direct vicinity to where the preload is placed, such as surrounding lots. The municipality, in its wisdom, decided that the lot next door had to have almost eight feet of preload placed on it prior to the new home being constructed. The district has instructed the builder — through the application and acceptance of

THE MISSION RECORD – THURSDAY, JULY 8, 2010

a permit — to line each side of the lot line with highway blocks placed at ground level and built up to approximately eight feet, then fill in the lot between these rows of blocks with preload right up to the top. Adjacent to the blocks on the left hand side is a vacant lot which poses no problem for the displacement of soils due to the additional weight placed on the building lot, but to the right hand side is our friend’s home, less than eight feet away. The noise across the roof is the trusses adjusting its pressure points to accommodate the void being created beneath the home, the slamming door is the foundation probably cracking somewhere not exposed to the eye, and running up the staircase is the structure settling. Now at this stage it is probably minor, but as time goes on it will become critical. Ron Wilkes Mission

Editor, The Record: re: The proposed Meadowland development on Stave Lake Street and Dewdney Trunk. The Mission planning department and the official community plan have both been negative toward this development. The purpose of the OCP is to try to maintain a variety of residential lifestyle options: urban, suburban and rural. At present there is a limited suburban land inventory (151 acres) available in the Hatzic North/ Hatzic Bench area. This project proposes to remove approximately 19 acres. There should remain a good supply of suburban lots for those ho choose this lifestyle. There are many unused urban residential lots in Mission which would suit this development much better, with closer amenities such as stores, medical care, etc. Al Brackley suggests that the reason many of us are opposed to the development is because we can’t develop. That is simply not true. It’s because we don’t want this great neighbourhood changed, and it would be. Four years ago we lived on one acre in the Cedar Valley development area. We moved because of the increased noise and vandalism to our cars and home. The hired spokesperson for Meadowlands is Rex Blane. At a recent meeting of our neighbours and the Hatzic Ratepayers Association this man strongly implied that we should not expect to live on one-acre parcels, as it is wasteful and self indulgent. Arnie Anderson is the main person Mr. Bean is fronting for, and he lives on 4.6 acres at Doyle and Richards. Mr. Anderson is adding to his retirement financially by downgrading ours. We are in our 70s, and the majority of the people in this neighbourhood are seniors or close to it. This is the wrong location for this development. Bill and Jeanette O’Donnell Mission

If an RCMP officer asks you for some spare change, help him or her out with a toonie or loonie. They’re only trying to get enough together to visit the coin wash to keep their cruiser clean. Along with the Mission RCMP, effective June 1, Ridge Meadows RCMP no longer have their cars washed in the underground garage, while they’re off shift. Instead, they’ll have to take them to an auto car wash whenever they have a spare moment. According to an RCMP spokesman, Ridge Meadows is merely doing what most other detachments have always done. It also means Mission resident Leigh Cooper is out of a job and now can retire at 66. Besides, younger people need the work and no one’s hiring anyways. “It was a good exercise program for me. Lots of bending, stretching, scrubbing. You use darn near every joint in your body.” For the last dozen years, Cooper has been washing the cars, mostly Ford Crown Victorias, in the garage at the Ridge Meadows detachment. He’d come out Monday to Wednesday and wash about 35 cars in 2.5 days, getting paid by the car, not the hour. “I did not waste any time. Because I was self-

employed. Time is money, so you go like shake.” Until a year and a half ago, Cooper also washed the cars for the Mission RCMP. “They liked the Cadillac service that got inside the cars and cleaned the inside as well.” But having officers wash their own cars is fine with Cooper. “The only thing is, that doesn’t do the inside of the cars. And that’s the important part because that’s where all the germs breed — just because of the clientele they deal with. “You know that’s their problem now. Apparently, I was costing them too much money.” According to the RCMP spokesman, the interior of the cars will be monitored and they might hire someone to clean those on a case-by-case basis. The camaraderie at the Ridge Meadows detachment made it a good place to work, Cooper said. “I enjoyed it, being I was doing for that length of time, I obviously had fun with it. “They were all good to me. Treated me like a king. I tried to treat them that way back.” As for soap, Cooper found the best was Tide laundry detergent. Cop cars aren’t waxed so there’s no fear of stripping off the car polish. “You want something that will make a white car, white.” “Don’t be afraid to use the elbow grease.”

Buyers beware as HST arrives Rip-off or not, there’s confusion out there BY JEFF

NAGEL

Black Press

George Plowman just wanted to buy a phone card, but his Canada Day quest uncovered some first-day glitches with B.C.’s shift to the new harmonized sales tax. The former South Surrey resident – who had temporarily returned for medical treatments after moving to 100 Mile House three years ago – was trying to make the purchase on King George Boulevard near 72 Avenue around 10 p.m. July 1. But three gas stations in a row were charging both the 12 per cent HST and the five per cent GST for a total of 17 per cent tax. The $50 phone card plus a $2.39 bottle of coke ended up costing more than $61, about $2.60 more than it should have. “I finally had to buy a card so I paid for it,” he said, but lodged a complaint at the station. He later got an apology and a refund but Plowman still wonders how many residents may have been unknowingly overcharged in the first couple of days of the tax while such errors were ironed out. “I was just so mad,” he said. “How much money was raked in on Thursday by nobody changing their system on time?” Consumers Association of Canada spokesman Mel Fruitman said shoppers have to be watchful as the HST kicks in, particularly at smaller outlets where less work may have been done to ensure a smooth transition. “You have to be vigilant for sure to make sure you’re being charged the right rate and you’re not being double charged.” In other cases, customers have raised red flags where businesses are in the right. Some residents spotted entries for HST, PST and GST on their recent telephone bills and called up Telus, convinced the phone company was ripping them off. The billing cycle straddles July 1, so recent bills include HST for advance-billed services provided in July, while GST and PST still apply before that. “There’s certainly

some confusion out there,” Telus spokesman Shawn Hall said. ICBC is also correcting misinformation on the Fight HST website,

which suggested the public auto insurer was skimming money by no longer issuing GST vouchers as part of settlements when a damaged

vehicle is written off. In fact, ICBC now pays a 12 per cent tax allowance on the total loss when the customer buys their replacement vehicle, in effect providing the same benefit as the GST vouchers and

the old PST allowance. A totaled vehicle valued at $1,000 means the customer will get a payout of $1,120, including the allowance, towards the replacement vehicle, said spokesman Adam Grossman.

quickly pass legislation correcting the error. Nor will HST opponents give up if the government’s approach is upheld and their petition is quashed in court.

Delaney said they would proceed with plans to recall government MLAs starting as early as November, a tactic that aims to leave the Liberals with a choice

– abandon the HST or lose power. Attorney General Mike de Jong said he’s confident the province is on solid legal ground. “The government pro-

ceeded in a manner that is entirely constitutional and valid,” he said. De Jong said Vander Zalm’s sole aim is to get attention and play politics.

The legal war over the harmonized sales tax ramped up to a new level today as Fight HST forces launched a court challenge claiming the province failed to constitutionally implement the merged tax. The B.C. government passed legislation that eliminated the provincial sales tax but didn’t specifically enable the HST, opponents allege. They’ve hired prominent Vancouver lawyer Joseph Arvay to contest the HST in B.C. Supreme Court. Fight HST leader and former premier Bill Vander Zalm said the step became necessary after business groups under the Smart Tax Alliance banner sought a court order to rule the 700,000-name anti-HST petition invalid. “We will not allow the people to be bullied by the government using legal manoeuvres undertaken by self-interested parties who stand to gain at the people’s expense,” Vander Zalm said. Provincial government officials and pro-HST business leaders say the citizens’ initiative petition to force the province to revoke the HST is unworkable because the tax is federally implemented and Victoria has no jurisdiction. Vander Zalm called the Smart Tax Alliance the government’s Howe Street “accomplices” and noted the group includes Crown corporations like BC Hydro. Arvay will argue specific provincial legislation allowing the HST was required, not merely a cabinet order signed by the premier and finance minister. “In every province in Canada that adopted the HST, it was their legislatures that enacted the tax, involving the whole democratic process, not simply a stroke of the finance minister’s pen,” Vander Zalm said, dubbing that taxation without representation. The fight is likely to drag on, no matter which side wins in court. Fight HST organizer Chris Delaney conceded the province could, if the HST implementation is ruled unconstitutional,

Great catch for a U.S. college

Mission catcher Megan Heriot will be throwing out baserunners for Jamestown College of North Dakota next year.

JASON ROESSLE PHOTO

Fastball player wins a scholarship to play for the Jamestown Jimmies of North Dakota BY JASON ROESSLE Mission Record

rowess calling shots on the ball diamond has enabled a Mission softball player to earn a scholarship to Jamestown College in North

Dakota. Megan Heriot has been playing ball since she was eight years old and currently plays for the Langley Lightning rep B team. After shopping her catcher skills around post secondary institutions Heriot got the news she

wanted. Come play with the Jimmies, said the recruiter, who offered her a spot on the team after scanning a video showcasing Heriot’s abilities. The lifelong Mission resident’s strong arm and ability to snap out of the crouch catching the NAIA division two team’s interests due to its senior catcher graduating last year. The partial scholarship covers a little less than half her tuition and sport costs, dramatically dropping her final university bill. And while Heriot was confident in her

playing skills, she didn’t think she would qualify for any scholarships because she wasn’t playing for a rep A team and had only recently started playing rep. “I played house ball until I was 15 but I did play some rep in Mission,” she said. Once the local rep team folded, Heriot found a great fit with her current squad. The well-spoken Heritage Park secondary school grad said she thrives on the excitement of her chosen position. “A good catcher shows control, leadership and command of the field by being vocal and

on your toes,” she explained. But mostly, a good catcher is the “battery for your pitcher.” When the pitcher’s game is off, Heriot finds the right words of encouragement and advice to re-focus their energy. Heriot leaves for North Dakota Aug. 14 and starts training camp Aug. 20. The focus off the bat will be on general fitness, she noted, and by the time the season begins in March, she expects to have had coaches working on refining her techniques through extensive drilling and bringing up her foot speed.

Fish good teachers for the apt pupil

hose who wish to achieve consistent success in angling need to remain teachable. This truth applies to everyone including myself. As often happens, it was the fish I was pursuing this past weekend that gave me my refresher course. I was out with two friends targeting an alternate BC game fish (black crappie). The fishing was good until 5 p.m., when the bite dropped off. Talk went back and forth between us as to what might put us back into fish. When marabou jigs were suggested, my mind went back to a time I had bought some for my

father-in-law. He and others had good success with them in chartreuse colour. I had in my box six chartreuse boobies (yes boobie is the name of the fly pattern). These flies had been given to me by a friend who claimed they

were the ultimate. My prejudice toward anything

that seems faddish had me relegate these flies to the if-all-else-fails section of my fly box. I held one up, looked at it with its thick body and large foam eyes, it did look similar to a jig and it was in chartreuse. The first cast brought to hand another first: a pumpkinseed sunfish. The others tied on boobies and we were back into fish. Will I use the boobie more often? You bet, particularly in chartreuse. As the younger folks would say, I got schooled – schooled by a pumpkinseed! It’s only fitting. Fish are good teachers you know, provided the student is willing.

Hospital operating rooms closing for the summer Hospitals aim to save $7 million BY JEFF

NAGEL

Black Press

Hospitals around the Fraser Health region are closing more operating rooms than usual this summer as a cost-cutting measure. Fraser Health spokesman Roy Thorpe confirmed the normal 25-percent summer reduction in OR time – because of surgeons, staff and patients booking holidays – will be 35 per cent this year. “The closures are a little bit more than would be done in a usual summer,” he said. Fraser Health still expects to perform the usual 80,000 surgeries in total in 2010, he said, by catching up on any backlog over the fall and winter. “We’re not expect-

ing any reductions in the number of surgeries performed,” Thorpe said. “We’re hoping to gain some efficiencies by doing more or the same number of surgeries with slightly less OR time.” The health authority hopes to wring $7 million in savings this year from the surgical budget through the combination of OR closures and other changes. Patient-focused funding is also expected to play a role, providing financial incentives to encourage hospitals to find more ways to perform day surgery, rather than keeping patients overnight. Langley Memorial Hospital is one of the hardest hit sites, losing almost half its OR time this summer. Dr. Mitra Maharaj,

an ear nose and throat surgeon at Langley, said he’s concerned about the hospital running only two ORs, adding it typically drops from a normal four ORs to three during the summer. “It’s certainly going to be challenging and it’s going to be something we’re going to have to monitor closely throughout the summer,” he said. “I don’t remember the last time we ran with two operating theatres – we’ll have to see how it goes.” It’s even worse at Peace Arch Hospital, which dropped from 2.3 ORs open in June to one for July and zero in August. Thorpe said Peace Arch expects to cope through a combination of shifting any scheduled August surgeries to the

fall and transferring patients to other hospitals where necessary. Fraser Health will monitor wait times at each hospital through the summer and into the fall and add OR time where needed, Thorpe said. “There is room to change and modify in response to needs,” he said. Emergency surgeries won’t be affected by the slowdown. Only elective and scheduled surgeries could end up getting bumped back if there’s not enough funded operating room time at a given hospital. How much OR time is cut varies from hospital to hospital, because medical staff at some sites preferred to spread the reductions out over other parts of the year to maintain more summer service.

place these bins to collect clothes, books or beverage containers, but the area around it is usually in an untidy state, council was told. Many people leave materials beside the bin and sometimes people dump illegal material near them, says Mission’s environmental coordinator Jennifer Meier in a report to council. There aren’t any bylaws regulating where the bins can be placed, and many of them are on public road right-ofways which leaves it up to the district to maintain and keep the premises tidy. Council is encouraging organizations to place their bins on private property, such as strip malls and gas stations with the owners’ permission. “I’d like to see these removed before the national (Communities in Bloom) judges arrive on July 15,” said Coun. Heather Stewart. “It’s unsightly.” And if these private property locations are left messy, the district could use its unsightly premises bylaw to address the issue.

“People, plants and pride… growing together”

It all started with a big pile of dirt and a letter

have been asked to put on record how Communities in Bloom program started in Mission. It began with a pile of dirt and a piece of good luck. Now it is Mission’s well-established and popular beautification program. In 2003, there was a huge mound of soil on the site of the former chamber of commerce building. Although there had been plans for a garden on this site, the initiative had been delayed and the site neglected. Frustration at this resulted in my writing a letter to the editor of the Mission Record. The correspondence received limited response and all of that was negative. During the same year, I was doing some family genealogical research using Google for information about Woodstock, Ont., where my great-grandparents had been buried. A link caught my attention: Woodstock-Communities in Bloom, which provided information about the national program. As the cliché goes, “The rest is history.” With the letter to the editor fresh in the minds of some, I chatted to friends about my Internet discovery. As a result, 11 of us met to discuss how we could get our community involved with CIB. On Feb. 19, 2004, Gordon Barstow, from Richmond’s parks department, spoke to our group about provincial judges’

expectations. Then we appeared before District of Mission Mayor Abe Neufeld and council and received their endorsement.

Our little group has grown in numbers, experience and commitment. We are very proud of our local competition, which has increased from 10 to 15 categories, and has also prepared the community for provincial and national competition. Encouraged by the continuing involvement of the District of Mission, its staff members, businesses, residents and community groups, the local CIB organizers, now numbering at least 25, have formed the Mission Communities in Bloom Society. This indicates continuation of our program for many years to come. We became a five bloom community in 2009 and we are now reaching for national blooms in 2010. The pile of dirt is no more. Instead, a wellmaintained commemorative garden, recognizing our sister city relationship with Oyama, Japan blooms in its place. Mission is now all about “People, Plants and Pride...Growing Together,” as indicated by the slogan for the National Communities in Bloom program. My gratitude goes out to all who believe in the slogan and have worked so hard to implement the CIB dream in Mission.

With many more meetings, planning sessions, canvassing, brochure creation, and foot work, we felt ready, although a bit nervous, for the 2004 provincial CIB competition.

“People, plants and pride… growing together”

A new challenge for Mission Communities in Bloom is a non-profit Canadian organization committed to fostering civic pride, environmental responsibility and beautification through community involvement and the challenge of a national program, with focus on the promotion of green spaces in community settings. Established with the guidance of Britain in Bloom, Tidy Towns of Ireland and Villes et Villages Fleuris de France, Communities in Bloom held its first edition in 1995 and 29 participating municipalities were honoured at the first awards ceremonies on Parliament Hill. The program now includes hundreds of communities across the country and an international challenge involving communities from the United States, Japan and several European countries allows participants to compete internationally. This year the District of Mission has been invited to the National Level of Competition. The local CIB group is

excited about having the opportunity to compete with other Canadian cities with the population of 20,000 to 50,000 people. The towns entered in our class are Campbell River, Essex ON ,Lloydminster AB/SK, West Kelowna and Westbank, First Nation BC, Westmount, PQ, and Mission. This will be an exciting competition and CIB organizers are sure Mission is up to the challenge. They need the entire

population to support them, by letting them know what you, your company, your family are doing to support the eight key criteria. The program consists of communities receiving information and being evaluated by a volunteer jury of trained professionals on the accomplishments of their entire community (municipal, private, corporate and institutional sectors, citizens) on eight key criteria Tidiness, Environmental Action, Heritage Conservation, Urban Forestry, Landscape, Turf & Groundcovers, Floral Displays and Community Involvement. Let CIB organizers know what your achievements are for 2009–2010. Call Myrna at 604-820-1380, or email beautifymission@hotmail.com, and she will gather the information and include it in the manual that is presented to the judges. They need your help so please be forthcoming. Communities in Bloom hopes to hear from all of you.

There’s a category for everyone No matter where you live or work, if you’re interested in competing in Communities in Bloom, there’s a category for you. And don’t let yourself think you need massive a massive acreage filled with exotic plants to be a contender. Some of the best gardens in Mission are modest affairs, but are still meticulously planned and cared for. Here are the categories: Vegetable gardening, industrial/ commercial properties, churches and temples, environmental project, heritage project, malls and large corporations, non-profits, residential front yard, residential back yard, elementary school project, high school project, service clubs project, small business commercial area, small business residential area, strata

developments and retirement residences and best effort in all categories. There is also an Unsung Hero Award handed out each year. Here are the details on the national competition. National competition criteria: Tidiness ...................................................... 150 Environmental Action ................................ 150 Heritage Conservation ............................... 150 Urban Forestry ........................................... 175 Landscape (incl Turf and Groundcovers) ... 200 Floral Displays ........................................... 175 * Community Involvement is included in each of these sections Total Points possible 1000

Each category covers sectors that the community is evaluated for, as it competes against other municipalities across Canada. These sectors are: Q Municipal: Including parks and green spaces, streets, streetscapes, and all properties owned and run by municipality such as museums and historical sites. Q Business and Institutions: Includes properties owned and managed by the commercial sector, shopping centres, commercial streets, industrial parks, manufacturing plants, and schools, universities, churches, hospitals, service and community organization buildings Canada Post, tourism bureaus and Chamber of Commerce offices and farms.

Q Residential: Citizens and citizen groups acting within their own properties, residential property owners and rate payer groups Q Community Involvement: This principle is so fundamental to the program that it deserves to be evaluated in each of the sections of evaluation. Community Involvement will continue to be a highlight of the awards ceremony. The judges look at individuals and citizen groups all contributing to various aspects of community improvement. They also consider organized clubs such as horticultural societies, garden clubs, community associations; social clubs such as Rotary, Lions and Optimist; and also the participation by the municipality, businesses and institutions.

“People, plants and pride… growing together”

Students blooming into fine citizens

n June 28, three Mission schools were recognized for their participation in this year’s Communities in Bloom School Competition. The winner of the elementary school division was West Heights Elementary, and in the secondary school division, Heritage Park Secondary and Riverside College shared the honours. Boston Pizza in Mission hosted students from all three schools, and thanks to the restaurant manager, Daryl Devuyst all students had more than their share of pizza. They were treated to an interesting presentation by Laura Midan of Abbotsford-Mission Recycling and Mayor James Atebe congratulated the students for their efforts on behalf of our community. Mission Communities in Bloom School Program encourages schools to demonstrate community service, environmental responsibility, and school/community beautification. All three of the above schools accepted the challenge and were cited for their achievements in one or more of these three areas. West Heights elementary’s efforts were the result of student participation in the school’s Yes 2 it Program directed by Pooky Sasiadek. These students built bird and duck houses for the on-going Silverdale Creek Wetlands Project, built a bench for the Rain Garden Project, completed benches for other locations throughout the community and constructed planter

boxes for their own school. Heritage Park secondary continued with the initiatives started last year. Teacher sponsor Al LaFontaine said: “We have taken our recycling/composting program to the next level.” The school plans to eliminate styrofoam and plastic from the school cafeteria. The school has changed to a fibre bowl and some made-in-BC wooden utensils, both of which are compostable. Their first choice, however, was with re-usable items and students were encouraged to bring their own utensils and bowls. Significant progress has been made with garbage output down an additional 15 per cent above the 50 per cent reduction achieved last year. Riverside College was recognized for the outstanding work done by students in Eco-CREW, a grade 10-12 program under the direction of teacher Dave McDonald and youth care worker Mike Pesek. It has been a busy year for the Riverside students, as they took on projects ranging from trail repair/ construction, fisheries, riparian planting of shrubs and trees and general litter clean-up. It became obvious from the quality and scope of the projects that these students were committed to the betterment of their community…they were engaged! It is the hope of the Communities in Bloom committee that they and other Mission youth will continue to see such ventures as personally satisfying.

Sponsors Boston Pizza rewarded the students from three local schools who got behind the Communities in Bloom program.

This year’s Mission Folk Music Festival will bring the world to Fraser River Heritage Park from July 23-25. World music, aboriginal sounds, Celtic traditions and Canadian voices will all have a strong presence. Each year festival director Francis Xavier Edwards tries to pay homage to great Canadian singers and songwriters. Ian Tyson and Murray McLauchlan are this year’s heroes in this category. “It’s a real pleasure to have Ian Tyson coming,” said Edwards. “He’s a Canadian icon and legendary figure.” The Victoria-born musician has written some of the most famous Canadian songs, like Four Strong Winds, and he was inducted in the Canadian Country Music Hall of Fame in 1989. McLauchlan took 10 years off of the performing circuit and Edwards says he’s excited to see him in Mission. McLauchlin has been in the industry for almost 40 years. Tyson and McLauchlan will be closing the show on Sunday on the main stage. Other Canadian acts to watch for are Jill Barber and David Francey. The world music component is also remarkable. Some of the bands like Te Vaka from Polynesia and Kenge Kenge from Kenya have never performed in Canada before. Te Vaka was founded in 1997 and they’ve played in every major festival in the world, but have never been here, said Edwards. “This would be the first time they set foot on a Canadian stage.”

Te Vaka mixes ancient cultures and modern sounds, giving audiences a taste of the South Seas. There are many world sounds to listen to, including Columbia’s Batata y Las Alegres Ambulancias, Brazil’s Renato Borghetti, and New Zealand’s Pacific Curls. There are a number of B.C. bands in the Aboriginal voices category, but one to watch for is Finland’s Karoliina Kantelinen. She sings Karelian yoiks, a unique style of singing, said Edwards. “The tone is often satirical and humourous. When singing, the body language usually shows what they’re singing about, even if you don’t understand the words.” Most other aboriginal performers are from B.C., including Iskwew, Gerald Charlie and the Black Owl Blues Band and Kelsey Charlie. The Paperboys will be closing the show on Friday with some Celtic and folk traditions. The B.C. band has a unique multicultural, multiinstrumental and co-ed sound. Other bands in this category are Findlay Napier and the Bar Room Mountaineers from the U.K., Robert Sarazin Blak and Jan Peters from U.S.A. and Matt Gordon. French Canadian culture will also be celebrated with performances by Les Charbonniers de L’Enfer, Le Vent du Nord and Reveillons from Quebec. The annual festival always comes and goes so fast, commented Edwards who researches the acts before bringing them to the show. This year Edwards is introducing a “greener” festival with new rules for food vendors. “Every year we try to recycle as much as we can,” he explained.

Finland’s Karoliina Kantelinen will be performing at the Mission Folk Music Festival at Fraser River Heritage Park.

“Plastic is always a big one.” He is encouraging festival-goers to bring their own reusable water bottle, thermos or coffee mug. Instead of plastic bottles, beverages will be served in cans or glass containers, and Edwards hopes include other uses, such as plastic forks and knives in the future if things go smoothly this year. Tickets to the festival are available at www.missionfolkmusicfestival.ca or by calling 604-826-5937 or 1-866-494-3655. Tickets are also available at Shoppers Drug Mart in Mission. Advanced weekend passes for adults are $90 each, $55 each for childre, and $60 each for seniors. One day passes and evening concert tickets are also available at the gate.

Off-site sounds Traditional and unique sounds and voices will fill the park all weekend long at the Mission Folk Music Festival, but you can preview some of the acts at some outreach concerts off site before the festival begins. “It’s a good way to launch the festival,” said MFMF director Francis Xavier Edwards. This festival isn’t commercially driven and artists come from all over the world, he explained. “We want to get them out in the community as much as possible.” The July 22 gala concert at the Clarke Theatre will officially kick off the festival and showcase some of the musicians that will be playing over the next few days. Tickets are $20 each and available at www. folkmusicfestival.com. Other off-site concerts in Mission are: Q Friday, July 16: Aurora, young voices from Australia, performs at St. Andrew’s United Church (7756 Grand St.) at 8 p.m. This young choir from Adelaide has done six international tours and won numerous awards. Tickets are $10 and there is limited seating. www.missionfolkmusicfestival.ca. Q Wednesday, July 21: Kenge Kenge performs at Fraser River Heritage Park at 7 p.m. This free festival preview concert with the Kenyan band is part of the Envision Twilight Concert Series. Q Tuesday, July 27: Les Charbonniers de L’Enfer & Les Mononcles plays at the Clarke Theatre. This special fundraising concert will keep the festival going just a little bit longer.

THE MISSION RECORD – THURSDAY, JULY 8, 2010

Summer concerts continue Ed Peekeekoot returns to the Envision Twilight Concert Series at Fraser River Heritage Park on Friday, July 9 from 7 p.m. to 8 p.m. The music of Peekeekoot goes from footstomping fiddle to virtuoso classical guitar, sprinkled throughout with his Cree humour and philosophy. He takes people on a wildly varied musical journey. His is a different genre of country – aboriginal country or aboriginal roots – song-stories of the transition from hunter gatherer to farmer; guitar instrumentals that paint the Northern Lights, or the hot fiddling of jigs and reels from Prairie dances. The gentleman cowboy of honkytonk grew up in a musical and supportive family. A singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, Peekeekoot also plays fiddle, banjo and traditional native flute and drums. Mainly a solo performer, Peekeekoot also appears in duos with his musical friends including Alan Moberg. Peekeekoot is of the Ahtahkakoop Cree First Nation of Saskatchewan, now living in British Columbia. His CD “in the key of Cree” was nominated for best country CD at the Aboriginal People’s Choice Music Awards in 2008. He performed at the awards ceremony at MTS Centre in Winnipeg. Peekekoot’s performance is sponsored by Best Western Mission City Lodge.

Gord Downie performing at Clarke Gord Downie and the Country of Miracles will be spending an evening at the Clarke Theatre on Saturday, Sept. 25 with local fans. Many fans know Downie as the face of Canadian rock band, The Tragically Hip. The Hip released 12 studio albums and won 14 Juno awards. Downie has just released his long-awaited third solo album, The Grand Bounce, with his backing band The Country of Miracles. In his latest album, Downie has shed the need to prove himself more than a rock star artistically and has stripped away the clutter, arriving at a clear, evocative sound with songs that range from the poignant Yellow Skies to the challenging Hard Canadian. Tickets for the show are now on sale at all Ticketmaster outlets, online at www.ticketmaster.ca, or charge by phone at 604280-4444 for $35 plus facility fee and service charges. The show is presented by Rock.It Boy Entertainment. Doors open at 7 p.m. and the show starts at 7:30 p.m. The Clarke Theatre is located at 33700 Prentis Ave. For more information call 604-820-3961.

The Envision Twilight Concert Series welcomes the JC Celebration Band to Fraser River Heritage Park on Wednesday, July 14 from 7 p.m. to 8 pm. The JC Celebration Band is a group of musicians who pay tribute to the music of Johnny Cash. Cash was one of the most influential musicians of the 20th century. Primarily a country music artist, his songs spanned many other genres. He was known for his

deep, distinctive bass voice, for his rebelliousness, his somber and humble demeanor, and for his dark performance clothing, which earned him the nickname, “the Man in Black.” JC Celebration Band performances are most often in support of community nonprofit groups. They care about the wellbeing of the people in their community and are passionate about making a difference to their neighbours and friends. The group often invites local emerging music talent to appear as special guests at their tribute shows in order to support and promote them. JC Celebration Band’s performance is sponsored by the Mission Record. The Envision Twilight Art in the Park program features Bonnie Dobbin’s paintings inspired by the natural and the metaphysical, and artist Wes Giesbrecht who gets people to enjoy their vision. Bring a lawn chair or blanket and come to the park. The Log Cabin Café and the Blackberry Kitchen are open for business before and during the concert. Admission is free but donations are appreciated and encouraged. Your support along with the generous contributions of sponsors will ensure that this series continues. For more information please call the Fraser River Heritage Park at 604-826-0277.

GRATEFULNESS

There is much to be thankful for every single day. Indeed, each day is itself something for which we should be thankful. But, how do we greet the day? Are the first words out of our mouths each morning a complaint, such as “Oh Lord, another day, I really hate to get up.” How much better it would be to start the day with a prayer of thanksgiving, such as, “Thank you God for giving me this day! I offer up all of my prayers, works, joys and sufferings to you. Help me to meet the challenges of this day.” There is always something to be thankful for, and the Bible tells us that we are what we profess with our mouths. Even if we are expecting our day to be filled with nothing but trials and tribulations, we should thank the Lord for the opportunity to be challenged. And, if we are really struggling to find something to be thankful for, we can play the “Glad Game”. That’s the game played by Pollyanna when things were going poorly, wherein she would find something to be glad about. Surely, there is always something to be glad about, even if it isn’t readily apparent. Rejoice always, pray constantly, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. — R.S.V. 1 Thessalonians 5.16-189

The bear facts: remove easy food sources During bear season, Conservation Officers in British Columbia respond to thousands of calls and complaints about bears. Most of these problems begin when people allow bears to access nonnatural food sources. Unfortunately, because there are few alternative control methods once bears have learned to access human food, Conservation Officers often have not choice but to kill “problem” bears. If bears are allowed access to human food and garbage, they quickly learn to associate it with people and become what is called food conditioned. These bears lose their fear of humans and become habituated to people. Food-conditioned bears learn to expect human food and are more likely to approach people. These bears can

damage your property and they are a potential risk to you and the safety of your family. In most cases, however, when a bear come into conflict with people, it is the bear that loses. Bears take advantage of whatever food that is available in their home range. They are attracted by sights, sounds, memories, and particularly smells. Bears can smell garbage from a mile away and if they are rewarded with an easy meal they learn very quickly to repeat behaviors. What can we do to discourage this? Q Keep garbage inside; Q Compost responsibility; Q Pick up fruit, pick up windfall; Q Remove unwanted fruit trees; Q Store pet food inside; and Q Keep barbeque clean.

Be mosquito smart! Q Applying tight-fitting well maintained screens to doors and windows. Q Keeping your lawn regularly mowed to decrease mosquito rest areas. Q Eliminating or regularly changing any sources of stagnant water around your home such as saucers under flower pots, bird baths, wading pools, and other areas where rainwater may collect. Q Keep lawns, bushes and gardens well trimmed so as not to give mosquitoes places to rest during the hottest part of the day. For more information about West Nile Virus, prevention tips and helpful links, please visit the BC Centre for Disease (BCCDC) control website at www.bccdc.org, or the Fraser Health Authority (FHA) at www. fraserhealth.ca.

District of Mission Council wishes to invite the public to attend open meetings and regular meetings of Council. The following meetings are scheduled for the weeks of July 8, 2010 to July 22, 2010.

Meeting Special Council (Economic Development Commission) Abbotsford Mission Water & Sewer Commission Regular Council (including Committee of the Whole) Mission Abbotsford Transit Committee Meeting

Location Conference Room Room 530 Abbotsford City Hall Council Chambers Conference Room

Please note that this schedule will be updated weekly.

Adopt-A-Block office closing The Mission Adopt-A-Block office will be closed for the summer holidays between July 22 and Aug. 22. There will be a volunteer board member checking in for important messages – however any business that does not need immediate attention will be taken care of when the office reopens in August.

Looking for Volunteers! Mission’s Gorilla Gardeners are looking for volunteers to add to their crew to adopt and take care of general public spaces in order to keep clean and beautify Mission. They hope to recruit volunteers to clean up a public space monthly or bi-weekly depending on the need. The clean-up would likely take 1-2 hours and would entail in some cases: weeding, sweeping leaves and debris, picking up litter and cigarette butts, removing weeds along curbs and raking mulched beds. While, they are not recruiting volunteers to do

PUBLIC MEETINGS OF COUNCIL July 8, 2010 to July 22, 2010 Date July 8 July 15 July 19 July 22

Bears that become reliant on human food sources are a danger to themselves and the public.

PAY IT

Since mosquitoes require water to complete their development, removing any sources of standing water from your yard will reduce the number of places mosquitoes can live. Dump out any tires, wheelbarrows, buckets or children’s toys and change water in wading pools or bird baths weekly. Even blocked gutters and rain pipes can produce mosquitoes, so make sure these are cleared and flowing freely. The Health Authority recommends the following measures to reduce the risk of being bitten by mosquitoes: Q Using insect repellent containing DEET (10% for children and up to 30% for adults) when outdoors. Q Avoiding mosquito laden areas during dawn and dusk. Q Wearing loose, light colored clothing when outdoors including long-sleeved shirts and pants.

Time 5:30 p.m. 9:00 a.m. 6:30 p.m. 10:00 a.m.

All progress is precarious, and the solution of one problem brings us face to face with another problem. ~Martin Luther King Jr. (1929 - 1968)

heavy or technical work (mowing, pruning, etc.), they would like volunteers to be the ears and eyes of our partners at the district, alerting staff to any larger needs or problems in the public spaces. Several areas have already been adopted by several volunteers, including Adopt-A-Block volunteers, but the group is still looking for additional crew members to help with already adopted areas and others. Also, areas that currently need volunteers (to pick up litter) include: Griner Park and around the Library, Museum and Archives buildings. There is also a small flower bed in Kinsmen Park East that needs attention (weeding). If volunteers know of an area that needs attention, they are more than welcome to take it on as well. Persons interested in helping out this summer with the Gorilla Gardeners are asked to contact Heidi Smith at: heidismith@shaw.ca.

Volunteers needed to help Communities in Bloom Mission Adopt-A-Block encourages all registered volunteers, friends and supporters to help support Communities in Bloom win this year’s national competition by: tidying adopted blocks or areas, cleaning litter in front of residences, store fronts, etc. before the judges event in July 15 and16. Cleaning the week prior to the event and during, will help to CNB wins points for the ‘tidiness’ component of the competition and needs all the help it can get (to keep it litter and debris free). All community members are welcome to join Communities in Bloom for the judged event held at the Mission’s leisure center gym starting with a meet and greet social event at 6:30 p.m. and the awards taking place at 7:30 p.m. For more information contact Myrna (CNB chair) at: rayme@shaw.ca
