Xa:ytem closed until spring BY CAROL AUN

Mission Record

Economic woes and shrinking availability of grants have forced the temporary closure of a national historic site in Mission. Xa:ytem Longhouse Interpretive Centre closed Nov. 4 and the gates will remain locked until operations have been restructured, likely in the spring. The site has been struggling financially and a number of factors have contributed to the closure, a decision the Sto:lo board of directors had to make, according to Sto:lo president Joe Hall. “Sto:lo is one of the primary providers of funding and times are tough now,” said Hall. Other factors contributing to the red ink are school district cuts, resulting in fewer field trips to the site. Xa:ytem has been having trouble since re-

sponsibility for the Lougheed Highway facility switched from Heritage BC to Sto:lo Heritage Trust in 2004, said Leq’a:mel First Nation Chief Alice Thompson. But it has been the last two fiscal periods, said Thompson — who sits on the heritage trust board — where problems became most evident, especially when requests came from site management to use line of credit to cover payroll. Being managed by the trust made it difficult for Xa:ytem to access a wider variety of grants that would help the bottom line, Thompson opined, adding Sto:lo has contributed approximately $300,000 towards the site’s operational budget since 2004. A team was sent out to analyze the situation before the site was temporarily closed. We need to take care of some creditors and not get ourselves so far down the hole that we can’t get out, noted Hall. He says the team will

conduct a review and look for improvements. “The break is allowing us to do this in a calmer environment.” The goal is to open as soon as possible, but Hall couldn’t state a timeline. “It’s a heritage site with tremendous value and it needs to be protected,” he said. “It’s a cultural site to Sto:lo and we will make sure it’s not down too long ... this is not a permanent situation.” Xa:ytem has relied on grants and developed through the efforts of people like manager Linnea Battel and volunteers who have fundraised, said Mission Mayor James Atebe, who has been aware of Xa:ytem’s financial difficulties for the past few months. “Nobody has come up with a sustainable financial plan for the site to operate with.” Atebe is confident the historic site is only closed temporarily and noted it would be a huge loss to the community if it didn’t reopen.

Run-of-river needed to supply power BY JESSICA PETERS Black Press

Run-of-river projects are stirring up a bit of controversy as more of the water-diverting power plants are quietly popping up in the Fraser Valley hinterlands. As our need for power continues to grow, so does the need for power sources, says Graham Horn, executive vice president of Cloudworks Energy. And run-of-river technology has been chosen by BC Hydro as a “clean energy” source, offering contracts to companies to construct and operate projects around the province. Cloudworks is among a handful of companies which have won bids to build those projects. While these are being built in many small communities, Cloudworks is focused on areas around Stave Lake and Harrison Lake. The basic technology behind these projects is nothing new, but there has been a resurgence of the technology, and Horn acknowledges that the projects have some people worried. Mostly, Horn says, they worry about BC Hydro selling this province’s natural resources to American customers. They also worry about effects on the environment. They are both valid concerns, Horn said. Because they’re capturing mountain run-off

Graham Horn, executive vice president of Cloudworks Energy, points out a fish compensation project near the Tipella Creek project. Visible in the background is the penstock and powerhouse.

water, a run-of-river project produces the bulk of its power during the freshet, typically a lowenergy consumption time. But, Horn says, B.C. currently doesn’t even produce enough energy for its own load. Then there’s the issue of the environment. Yes, Horn admits, they are altering the natural

course of waterways, and constructing pipelines and buildings in riparian zones. “We do alter the waterways. We do affect the salmon habitat,” Horn said, during a helicopter ride to the remote area. “We try to avoid it ... we try to compensate for it.” Run-of-river works best in waterfalls with a

grade of at least 10 per cent, because the force of the water moving downward is what’s creating the energy. Water is diverted into a generating station, after falling through a screen that filters out fish and river debris. Only the water that’s needed goes through the screen and into the station. The rest of the water carries down the hill, as it would have naturally. The captured water falls through a pipeline, called a penstock. The development of these penstocks has created clearcut swaths through the forest, visible from land and the air. These have been replanted and will eventually be virtually undetectable. The water is sent to a powerhouse, where it flows through two turbines. The turbines create the energy, which is sent to a switchyard. Some of the energy is siphoned off right away, for Cloudworks to power its operations. The rest of the energy flows into BC Hydro’s main power supply. Back at the powerhouse, once the water flows through the turbines, it flows out into the tailrace. This is essentially a new waterway that connects the water that was diverted back to the natural water flow. From that convergence, the river carries on as it would have.

Tough year for hospice 25 years of service STORIES

CAROL AUN

Mission Record

As the Mission Hospice Society celebrates 25 years of service, volunteers are also trying to come up with new ways to fundraise much-needed dollars and build on existing programs. The Mission Hospice Society provides ongoing palliative support in the community and at the Christine Morrison Hospice. All programs and services offered are free but the society relies on donations and government grants to keep it running. “This year has been tough,” said board member Charlotte Fetterly. The government has taken away the threeyear term for gaming grants, she explained, adding the society will not know until February if they will get funding. That uncertainty makes the group nervous. For the past three years the gaming grant made up more than one-quarter of the group’s operating budget. So far the only item affected is the children’s grief program but the society hasn’t closed its doors. Programs still available are: • Circle of Friends, a grief support group for elementary students;

• Pathways, an educational support group for adults who have experienced the death of a loved one; • Men’s Walking Group, an ongoing weekly support group for men who have experienced the death of a loved one; • Tea and Company, an ongoing weekly support group for women who have recently lost a spouse; • The Next Step, an ongoing support group for women rebuilding their lives after losing a spouse; • Monthly Potluck, a time for great food, company and conversation for bereavement program participants. Volunteers are at the Christine Morrison Hospice seven days a week and will visit home-based clients as they are needed. “Our volunteers go to homes and helps care for the caregiver too,” said Ruth Fearn, a board member. The society has close to 100 volunteers today who take care of approximately 1,000 clients a year. It’s important we’re there because 84 per cent of health issues are emotionally based, said Fetterly. “We may only be a little hospice society, but we’re a busy one,” added Fearn.

ven before the hospice movement began in the late 1960s, Lilian Dudfield thought no one should ever have to die alone. This came to her while working in a Prince George care home but she wouldn’t get a chance to do something about it until moving to Mission with her husband in 1974. Dudfield helped found the Mission Hospice Society, which is celebrating 25 years of service this month. In Prince George, Dudfield was troubled when she saw comatose patients and those who were dying moved to an isolated spare room where they were ignored until they passed away. This bothered her so much she began sitting with the patients and talking to them, even though she wasn’t sure they could hear her. Dudfield even took it upon herself to arrange funerals for those without family. “I felt that these people should have some kind of ceremony when they died to recognize the value of their lives,” wrote Dudfield in History of the Mission Hospice Society. Without knowing it, Dudfield was already performing hospice work.

With some motivation Dudfield and Abbotsford resident Jeanette Poulin organized a meeting in the mid-1980s after a local television station aired a series on hospice and palliative care. The two women knew the importance of starting something like this and wanted to carry on the momentum. More than 100 people showed up at the meeting and the Mission Hospice Society became official on Sept. 30, 1985. It was incorporated Nov. 13, 1985. Everyone was a volunteer. The group met inside homes of volunteers for the first 12 years and Dudfield opened a bank account with $5 of her own to get things going. Membership was $5 and the dedicated team held raffles and other fundraisers to raise money for the society and train volunteers. The services provided were free. They had the community’s support and eventually found space in the hospital conference room for meetings. In 1988-89, the hospice society raised money to transform three hospital rooms See CHRISTINE Page 4

in an office on James Street between First and Second Avenues. The society received significant donations from community members and put them to good use. For example, the $10,000 donation from Vic and Hilda Hollister was used to start the Hospice Society Endowment Fund at Mission Community Foundation, and Christine Morrison left a sizable amount of money to the Mission Memorial Hospital in 1994 to be used under the direction of her physicians Dr. Andrew Edelson and Dr. Hector Baillie. Some of the funds were used to build a special palliative care room and lounge for patients and their families in 1996. These rooms were used often, according

to Dudfield, but were closed when the provincial health care system was regionalized in 2002 and the top floor of the hospital closed. “We all had a dream of a freestanding hospice residence,” said Dudfield. “This finally came to pass in 2005 when the Christine Morrison Hospice opened on the third floor of Mission Memorial Hospital. This floor had been closed for three years due to cutbacks. Now it was finally opened again and being put to such great use.” The hospice was named after Morrison because a large portion of the funds she had left had been used for the organization. Fraser Health Authority operates CMH and it is also staffed with hospice volunteers.

Humane society doors may close

Donations returned, project cancelled BY CAROL AUN Mission Record

At least one councillor is embarrassed after council spent almost an hour Monday night debating a proposal to put up a mural on the northwest corner of the Leisure Centre. Councillors accused each other of disrespecting community volunteers before eventually agreeing 5-2 to defer the decision until the Cultural Resources Commission, which reviews public art in the district, has a chance to comment on the proposal and politicians’ concerns and question about the project could be addressed. But those efforts have been wasted as the committee responsible for developing murals met Tuesday morning and decided to return all donations and not proceed with the project. “We believe the city could’ve made a decision on this because it’s a city building,” said Coun. Heather Stewart, who is also a committee volunteer. Stewart, along with Coun. Jenny Stevens wanted council to unanimously approve the proj-

the mural this week and wasn’t prepare to move hastily on a decision. Coun. Paul Horn suggested deferring the matter until the next council meeting and most councillors agreed given nobody was available to give council answers. Horn wanted to know owns the domain to the photos and if there would be any disputes having them on a city building, and Coun. Danny Plecas

asked where the funds would come from for maintenance. “We have a group of volunteers who think up a concept, raise the money, then bring it to the city ... and now it’s being met with a pile of bureaucracy,” said Stevens. The mural was originally slated for the east side of the former Home Hardware building on First Avenue before the store went out of business.

The Fraser Valley Humane Society was granted charitable status again two weeks ago but it may be too little too late for the struggling shelter. “We’re in trouble,” said Celia Durst, FVHS executive director. “We don’t have enough money to get us past November.” If funding isn’t found, the doors will close, Durst will be laid off and there would be no vet care for the 45 cats and kittens currently being housed at the North Railway Avenue shelter. Board member Joanne Newlands estimates $8,000 is needed just to keep the shelter open through December. And even with $8,000, care would be limited and only the essentials will be provided. Durst presented their case to Mission council Monday night in order to be considered for the district’s fee for service grant. But that grant doesn’t kick in until January, which still leaves the FVHS in a bind for December. Problems began in 2009 when the group lost its charitable status because the necessary papers weren’t completed and filed. This was before Durst came on board and before a new board of directors was chosen. Since then, two bookkeepers were hired to get things on track and now, with the charity status in place, Durst says the shelter is operating “very well.” Durst joined FVHS about a year ago and has been trying to build up relationships in the community again. The new board just started this fall. Fundraising efforts have been hampered because people are reluctant to donate to a non-profit organization without a charitable status. Donors don’t receive a tax receipt and it’s also more difficult to apply for grants, she explained. But with the charitable status back in hand, Durst and Newlands are hoping the commu-

ect Monday. The proposed mural is a series of photos depicting historical Mission events. “It’s caused me a lot of disappointment. When I look at it personally, I don’t want to see anymore divisiveness.” Stewart said it was volunteer Eric LeBlanc who did most of the work for the mural and he’s frustrated with the delays. Other councillors say they only found out about

OPINION

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

The proper forum Last week, Stephen Harper’s Conservative government announced Canadian troops will stay in Afghanistan for an extra three years. The Canadian military will apparently be taken off the battlefield and move to a training role. Nonetheless, the decision is in spite of a parliamentary resolution that stated Canada would end its combat role in the hopelessly wartorn country by the end of 2011. In addition, Harper has stated there is no need for a vote in the House of Commons on any extension of Canada’s activity in Afghanistan. The government is wrong. Canada has invested a lot in Afghanistan, through financial aid and in particular, through our military mission there, which has been underway for close to nine years. This is the longest war commitment by Canada in its history — three years longer than our commitment during the Second World War. Our biggest and most emotional investment has resulted from the tragic loss of Canadian lives there. Because of the enormous amount of money, military energy and emotional energy invested in this mission, it deserves a full and honest discussion in Parliament. Yes, it is true that the Bloc Quebecois will be naysayers, and it is highly unlikely that the NDP will support any Afghan mission extension. However, both the Liberals and Conservatives suggest there are good reasons to be involved in aid and training until 2014, and all perspectives on this deserve to be heard in the House of Commons, the proper place for such subjects to be discussed. —Black Press

He’s not the real Bill Bennett K

ootenay East MLA Bill Bennett became the political equivalent of a suicide bomber last week, detonating his career in a manner calculated to do maximum damage to the B.C. Liberal Party. He did plenty, with the help of an uncritical city media that fawned over him as they did earlier with Blair Lekstrom, the last rebel without a clue to become the ex-energy minister. Lekstrom at least showed some respect for parliamentary tradition as he rode his Harley back to Dawson Creek this spring, unable to face the onset of the HST that he had helped vote into place only weeks before. When he could no longer support the government, he quietly left cabinet and caucus, saying nice things about good intentions. Bennett figured he could stay in cabinet while forcing Premier Gordon Campbell out early. When that didn’t work, he lashed out with high drama and unsubstantiated claims. His most specific claim was that Campbell bullied three women into quitting politics: Carole Taylor, Olga

Ilich and Christy Clark. Clark denied it. Neither Taylor nor Ilich dignified Bennett’s rant with a response, but a couple of things are obvious. Campbell recruited both, despite their reluctance to leave successful business careers. Both were visibly appalled at what goes on in elections and the B.C. legislature, and stoically finished their terms before getting out. Bennett predicted that “more and more” MLAs would come forward with tales of Campbell’s To atrocities. The sound you are hearing is crickets. No one, past or present, has backed him up. Bennett’s other mewlings are hardly worth mentioning. His bipartisan “outdoor caucus” idea was spurned by the NDP more than by Campbell. Kootenay Bill now says he never wanted to go into politics. He was happy fishin’ and lawyerin’ in Cranbrook when he looked up and saw the socialist hordes gathered at the

gates again. Our seasoned bar fighter glanced around him, but no other warrior for free enterprise was stepping up. So, reluctantly, he did. This, as Bennett would say, is bulls***t. No current politician has so manifestly lusted after high office as he has. After replacing Lekstrom in the vital energy portfolio, Bennett described to me how he had always put it at the top of his wish list whenever Campbell asked him what cabinet role m he would like. (Apparently Campbell didn’t always belittle and spit on him.) It’s worth noting Bennett’s performance as an MLA and minister. He got re-elected by a thin margin last year with the help of a racially tinged advertisement targeting his aboriginal opponent’s tax status. After being named to the energy job, he proclaimed himself a climate change “denier.” Then he waded into the Prosperity mine dispute,

announcing to me that an unprecedented mine royalty sharing deal was in the works with a couple of other aboriginal groups, and a similar offer would be made publicly to the militant Tsilhqot’in National Government that claims the Prosperity site. That offer never came, so swift and vehement was the reaction by the Tsilhqot’in. Gee, do you think private talks might have been a good idea rather than letting them learn of the offer from the Williams Lake Tribune? Campbell intends to go out in the style of the real Bill Bennett. Kelowna Bill won three elections and remained premier until his successor was chosen at a convention in Whistler in 1986. When that turned out be Bill Vander Zalm, Kelowna Bill hoisted his hand, thanked the party for its support, and served quietly as MLA for Okanagan South until his successor for that job was chosen.

Last week: Are you feeling more optimistic about the economy? Yes: 30% No: 70%

YOUR VIEWS Know what you believe and why Editor, The Record: Mr. Loftus, to whom I referred to with the Outsider Test, has no need to look outside his atheism as it was his intellectual abilities to see that the very religion he was raised in and taught at the university level, failed. The latest studies show atheists and agnostics score higher on questions about religion than do his fellow believers which comes as no surprise to me from decade’s worth of experience. It just isn’t good enough to say “I believe” and really have no clue what you believe in and more importantly why. Mr. Bowman actually makes my point for me that we get our religion from our parents as well as from simple geography. He found

it comforting to sit with them in church and I have no doubt the social aspect of associating with like-minded sheep gave him a feeling of belonging. Had his parents been Muslim and attended their mosque, he would now be going Ali Akbar instead. But then who wants to be a sheep to be fleeced or slaughtered. Singling out the bafflegab which Lawrence Locke wrote I can only say, Lord give me strength. And yes, that was a pun. Because he’s no different then the other writers who also just back up my stance that religion is a matter of geography and history no matter the lengths some people will go to put their own spin on it to deny the obvious. And just like those other writers he tries to deflect attention

away from his inability to confront the test I posed. Mr. Locke’s ridiculous reference to the Bible being like a car manual is laughable on many levels so I’m unlikely to give much credibility to someone who can’t or won’t answer a question except with a question. If, however, the Bible was like a car manual, any car repaired by it would not be road worthy. I wasn’t created in any God’s image to be intolerant, sexist, homophobic and violent which is why I push back and take no prisoners when I see ignorance and hate for others being disguised as any God’s love, whether that god is Christian, Jewish, or Moslem. Robert T. Rock Mission

Cellphone coverage much needed in Steelhead area Editor, The Record: We have lived in the Steelhead area for over 20 years and enjoy the forest setting and the wildlife found therein. A service we desperately need is cellphone coverage. We have to travel seven to eight kilometres from our house to get a signal. There is a slight signal at Mill Pond and again at the landfill site if you have a Rogers phone — Telus cellphones will not access a signal in these spots. As my husband and I are both past the “three score and 10” age, we have some health problems. For safety reasons we should be carrying a cellphone. Telus recently did some repairs to our landline — the static was so bad you couldn’t hear the other person —

the technician said the equipment was very outdated both on our house and the pole. On March 12, we had no landline service for over 24 hours. The lines were cut in the early hours for the copper content and had to be replaced. Shawn Hall of Telus has been noted saying that this isn’t a victim-

less crime. Thieves are putting customers’ lives at risk and robbing them of access to 911. This is absolutely the situation in Steelhead and is of grave concern to the residents. We pay $25.96 including tax each month. That is the same or even a little more than lower Mission, which has access to cellphone signals

and high-speed Internet. I am told that India and the Gobi Desert are well-supplied with cellphone coverage. Why are we forgotten? Telus has lots of commercials on TV at prime time — that must be costly. Maybe that is why they cannot afford to upgrade our line. Shirley Carney Steelhead

Hemlock Valley Resort is a small, threerun ski resort. But if a massive expansion plan is successful, it could eventually cap several mountain tops and include “people-moving” trams between day areas, lodging and ski hills. It could also lead to the creation of a new resort community on the western shore of Harrison Lake. The area commonly known as 10 Mile Bay is proposed to become a resort area comprising a boat launch, marina, beach, a nearby golf course, as well as possible hotels, restaurants, retail space and other commercial activity.

After a short but courageous battle with cancer, the Lord called Richard Patrick Meincke to be with him on Sunday, November 21, 2010.

THE MISSION RECORD – THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 25, 2010

District began readying for snow at the end of summer BY CAROL AUN Mission Record

The first test of winter came last weekend but Mission’s public works department was ready. In fact, the district had been preparing since summer. “We started looking into salt supplies in the last week of August because we’ve had issues in the past,” said Mission’s operations manager Matt Dunham. “It’s something we prepare for fairly early.” This year, Mission was also given early warning about a cold winter from forecasters in Seattle and Kamloops. “Every municipality uses them,” said Dunham, who says Mission shares the cost with Maple Ridge for this service. “They provide us

with a three-day advance forecast and update us hourly during events. If there’s a change, they’ll call so we can react to it right away.” These forecasters explained in detail months ago what should be expected, giving the district ample time to schedule items, like staff, accordingly. In preparation for snow and icy conditions this past weekend, Dunham had his team spraying brine on the roads, a pre-treatment of salt and water solution which binds to the asphalt, making it easier to remove any snow on top. Mission has been making its own brine for four years that can be used in -10 C degrees and still have an effect, said Dunham, adding the trick is to apply it before the

snow arrives. “When the snow falls, instead of binding to the road, we can scrape it off.” After the snow accumulates, crews will continue using the brine mixture on busier roads like the Cedar Valley Connector and Stave Lake Street, where there is enough traffic to break it up and move it around. However, on quieter roads, like in Silverdale and Steelhead, a salt and sand mixture will be put down to give vehicles some traction. Another tool the district utilizes is the road weather information system. There are four of these sensors located throughout the district, buried 18 inches into the asphalt of the road to measure moisture content and temperature.

These sensors are located in the north Stave area, Wilson Street and Dewdney Trunk Road, Keystone and Steelhead area. The readings are sent to a computer at city hall and are the first thing staff on the night shift check when they start work, said Dunham. There are 45 people in the public works department and 33 of them were involved in a snow plough training workshop last week. The district is prepared and Dunham is asking resident to do their part too. It seems everyone is out when the first snow falls, he said. “Relax. Give us time to deal with it. If you don’t have the proper tires, don’t do out in the snow.”

Roadrunners head to semis BY JASON ROESSLE Mission Record

Mission Secondary School’s junior varsity football team advanced to the B.C. semi-finals with a 37-6 win over Vernon secondary last Wednesday, putting all three of the local school’s teams into provincials. The win extends the JV Roadrunners’ perfect record to 12-0 and secures a berth in the semi-finals against Richmond’s Hugh Boyd Secondary, said head coach John Kapty. Two big touchdown runs put the Roadrunners up 14-0 in the first quarter. Quarterback Kevin Wiens — who serves double-duty by playing on the varsity team as well — scored on an impressive 30-yard run, and Mitchell MacAulay added another TD with a long 40-yard run of his own. Early in the second quarter, Wiens found Ryland Robitaille down the sideline for a 25-yard touchdown strike which put Mission up 22-0. “We got some big plays in the first half, but it took us until the second half to really establish the run and take over control of the game,” said Kapty. “We made some adjustments and Evan Horton ran the ball well in the second half. Our offensive line eventually started to overpower their defence.” Second half touchdowns went to Horton on a four-yard run and MacAulay who caught a short pass from Wiens and took it the rest of the way — 35 yards — for the score. And if it seemed as though Vernon just couldn’t contain the Roadrunners’ offense, that brings a smile to Kapty’s face.

“This is my third year in a row with these players and we have been running the same style of offense, which is quite complex,” he explained. The run-pass game employed by the JVs, and the refinement of the plays, means the team has a number of people to employ to move the ball upfield. At most times on offense, Wiens has his choice of five to six receivers and slotbacks to whom he can feed the ball. “It’s hard to contain us.” And while Kapty was confident at the beginning of the season his team would represent MSS well, he admitted to being surprised at the perfect season notched so far. He credits knowing his players for three years and the athletes own dedication to steady improvement in all aspects of the game. The defensive line has been notching big results this year too. Besides a 20 point game against, the defense has put together seven shutouts this year so far. The Roadrunners next game is today versus Hugh Boyd at Burnaby Lakes. Varsity The varsity team continues its winning ways after squeaking out a double-overtime win last Saturday against Seaquam, 37-34. Quarterback Tanner Pearce went 12 for 22 in the passing game, posting 121 yards and one touchdown. Running back Jesse Forcier dominated the rushing game with 176 yards and three touchdowns with only 17 touches of the ball.

Explosive device found in Hurd Street home BY CAROL AUN Mission Record

Police found an explosive device and a number of weapons, including firearms, Mission Mounties and firefighters searched a home on knives and swords in a home in the 7400 block of Hurd Street last Monday. Hurd Street last week. JASON ROESSLE PHOTO

Mission Mounties and the regional Emergency Response Team executed a search warrant at the home after someone reported an assault and theft and tipped off police. Four people were taken into custody, including the homeowner.

Police located the weapons and seized a small amount of drugs as well. The explosive device was not live and did not pose a threat to the area. The owner of the home, 25-year-old Joseph Carl Russell, has been charged with assault.

Mailboxes broken into, most now fixed BY JASON ROESSLE Mission Record

A recent spate of community mailbox breakins has left some residents unsettled. Late last week approximately 10 of the mailboxes were pried open and the mail stolen from sites along Cedar Street and Dewdney Trunk Road, confirmed Lillian Salchner, Canada Post communications. The postal inspector has been working closely with Mission RCMP, she said, and the majority of the mailboxes have now been repaired. One or two still require repair but they will be fixed “very shortly.” “It is a priority for us,” she said. In the meanwhile, those who have had mail stolen and are uncertain if their information has been compromised are encouraged to contact senders, said Salchner, or call 1-800-267-1177. As well, those whose mailboxes have not been repaired can pick up their mail at the post office on First Avenue.

Visit with Santa at Norma Kenney House next Sunday, but be sure to dress warmly as there’s little space inside the building. Hot chocolate will be available to ward off the chill.

Santa Claus coming to Norma Kenney House via fire truck Santa’s coming! And everyone should know the Norma Kenney House, at Mission’s Fraser River Heritage Park, is the place to be photographed with the Jolly Fellow in Red. Santa will be on hand from 2 to 4 p.m., Dec. 5. The Mission Heritage Association, with the generous support of Prospera Credit Union and a host of Santa’s helpers team up to bring a heart-warming day for the family. We all know, at this time of year, the reindeer are in heavy training for their big night so the Mission Firefighters’ Association have come to the rescue by offering to deliver Santa in style, weather permitting, aboard the historic Engine ‘54. This allows Rudolph and the others to continue their special workout routines. Photos with Santa and the choice of a stuffed toy to adopt, for a mere $2 donation, are being provided through Shoppers Drug Mart and MCC. Due to Santa’s tight schedule this time of year, opportunities for photos are limited so priority will be for children and families. To help keep things interesting while waiting to see Santa, a special group of elves will be

Ready to roll with annual benefit show Tickets are already selling fast for the 11th annual Christmas at the Clarke Benefit Concert on Dec. 15. “In terms of great entertainment for the entire family, it just doesn’t get better than this,” said John Agnew, the benefit’s founder and producer. “It provides people with a great night of inexpensive entertainment and just as importantly, it raises money, over $120,000 in the past 10 shows, for two worthwhile community organizations: the Christmas Bureau and the shelters operated by the Women’s Resource Society, providing desperately needed help for women and children who are victims of domestic violence and abuse.” This year the show continues its tradition of providing something for almost everyone and the line up of entertainment is impressive. As people arrive early for the silent auction, they will be entertained by the choirs from Mission and Heritage Park secondary schools. Beginning at 7 p.m. the audience will be wowed by the Gospel Connection, Familia, three great young performers from The Valley Voices, and by the Joy Vox Community Choir. Coming back this year to close the show is Rob Hess, who has participated in the event on several occasions, and whose voice gets the audience on its feet every time. It’s a Christmas show for the whole family that you won’t want to miss. One of the highlights of the evening is a silent auction. Local businesses have donated hundreds of items for people to bid on, including a number of prestigious golf passes from around the province, ski equipment, mountain passes and ski vacations from Hemlock Valley,

Manning Park, Sun Peaks and Mt. Baker in Washington State. People who don’t enjoy skiing or golfing can bid for a weekend for two at the Harrison Hot Springs and Sandpiper Resort. There is also a raffle, first prize being a $1,000 travel package. The benefit has also received the help of The Mission Record newspaper, Star 98.3 and Country 107.1 radio stations, both Rotary Clubs, the Kinsmen Club, a number of church organizations and many large businesses who have made major financial contributions. “This benefit has pulled people from of all walks of life together for a common goal,” said Agnew. “When we started this event we had no idea that it would become as successful as it has and we want to thank every person who has made that success possible.” Tickets are still only $15, and are available at Rex Cox Men’s Wear and Murdoch’s Book Shoppe on First Avenue, Shoppers Drug Mart, and at London Drugs and Save On Foods at the Junction Mall. They are also available at the House Of James on Emerson Street in Abbotsford. As usual, people are also asked to bring items for the food bank “and a wallet full of spending money that we’ll be happy to take off your hands,” quips Agnew. The need in the community is expected to be greater than ever this year. If you’d like to get involved, or make a contribution to the silent auction, you can reach John at 604-826-4903, 604-217-1863, or call the Clarke Foundation Theatre at 604-820-3961 for more information.

One of the most exhilarating and inspiring winter activities to annually grace the Fraser Valley is coming a week earlier this year. The Best of Banff Film Festival is coming to the Fraser Valley a week early this year. The 12th annual event will take place at the Clarke Theatre on Tuesday, Nov. 30. Normally the film festival takes place in early December, but event organizer Roger Friesen says he had a chance to get it early and jumped at the opportunity. “The event generally sells out, so we want people to know it is arriving one week earlier than it has in the past,” he said. “This year promises to be even more exciting than previous year’s as the line-up is tremendous.” Each October, the Banff Mountain Festival in Alberta attracts more than 10,000 outdoor enthusiasts where participants can view worldclass films, listen to book readings from adventure writers, join seminars that debate mountain issues, and view the most-up-todate outdoor equipment, clothing, books, and adventure travel opportunities. When the nine-day event wraps up, the winning films at the festival then go on a world tour. Friesen, a sport psychology instructor and teacher of UFV’s wilderness-based field courses, explained there are several types of films at Banff: some high adventure, some longer documentary-style, many thought-provoking, some quite short, and some with a strong environmental message. The selection at this year’s Banff Festival was “truly inspiring — with powerful messages inherent in many of the films,” he said. The films that originate from the Banff Festival seem to get better and better each year, he adds. The films cover a whole range of outdoor experiences from adventure, environment, mountain

culture, heritage, and can be action-filled short flicks, lasting less than 10 minutes, or be lengthy styles comprehensive films that deal with serious issues. Friesen says he tries to get a good mixture to keep the local audience gripped for the entire evening. There is always something inspirational and motivating at these events, he adds. It’s worthwhile to come out and see some of the best documentaries and action-packed outdoor films available. “I have always loved adventure and I am passionate about raising global awareness and raising awareness regarding this beautiful earth we all share,” he says. “Hosting the Best of the Banff World Tour is just one small way I can do my part.” The lobby of the Clark Theatre will be transformed into a mini sports expo as a number of local companies set up booths to promote wilderness-based recreation in this region, as well as promote healthy lifestyles and raise global awareness. “This is always a popular event,” Friesen adds. “In order to avoid disappointment of not getting in, I would encourage everybody to purchase their tickets well in advance.” Tickets are $15 each and are available at Wenting’s Cycle and Mountain Shop, Mission and the UFV office Mission campus, Western Canoe and Kayak, Valhalla Pure, Life Cycles and the UFV Bookstore on the Abbotsford campus, theatre box office at the UFV Chilliwack campus, and the UFV campus in Hope. The Best of Banff is on Nov. 30 and the doors open at 6:30 p.m. To get tickets or more information, contact Friesen at roger.friesen@ufv.ca or call him at 1-888-5047441, local 4297.

Fraser Valley dance students perform Nutcracker Show at Clarke Theatre opens Nov. 27

SALE

Experience the magic of The Nutcracker on Nov. 27 at the Clarke Theatre. This enchanting tale is being told by the Fraser Valley Academy of Dance (FVAD) and choreographed by John Carney. It features over 100 ballet students from Mission, Deroche, Harrison, Abbotsford and Langley, and two professional dancers from Milwaukee Ballet. This is the third production of The Nutcracker under Carney, FVAD owner and artistic director since 2008. Previously performed to great acclaim by New Haven Ballet at the Shubert Theater in Connecticut, Carney’s production offers the familiar characters of Drosselmeyer, Fritz and Clara, as well as the lesser-known characters such as Claraάs sister Louise and the von Rattenstein family. Enjoy the humour and delight of a Christmas party at the Stahlbaumάs, then follow Clara in her dream as she witnesses the excitement of the battle between rats and soldiers, travels through the mystical Snow and across the serene ocean to the Kingdom of Sweets. Meet the Sugar Plum Fairy and Nutcracker Prince and all of Claraάs new friends who entertain the audience with dances of Chinese, Candy Cane, Russian, Arabian, Smarties, Spanish and Flowers. The Nutcracker will be performed on Nov. 27 at 2 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. at the Clarke Theatre. Tickets are $24/adult, $22/senior and $16/student and available to purchase at the FVAD office, 33219 First Ave. or by calling 604-8260097. Tickets are also available at Jazz-MaTazz in Abbotsford. • For more information visit www.fvad.ca.

I recently came across the NASA Web site and saw some truly amazing photos of our solar system’s planets and moons. The beauty of Jupiter and its moons is impossible to convey in words, as is the aesthetic perfection of Saturn and its rings. There are unmanned vehicles traveling to the limits of our solar system and beyond, sending back incredible images and other data. Our universe is more amazing and awe-inspiring than any of us can imagine, and we cannot help but wonder about the mind of our Creator and what He had in mind when he made such wondrous worlds. And why, in a fairly inconspicuous corner of the Milky Way galaxy, did He create a little blue and white planet that would become our home? The Bible tells us that God generously gives us everything for our enjoyment, so perhaps the heavens are there merely for us to admire and enjoy. Truly, these stars and planets are the manifest handiwork of an amazing and generous God, and it would be the height of ingratitude for us not to appreciate these creations. In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. R.S.V. Genesis 1.1

THE MISSION RECORD – THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 25, 2010

ORN kicks off this Friday Abbotsford-Mission Operation Red Nose, the seasonal designated driver program, is taking its message on the road. A new partnership with Abbotsford-based Big Rig Group has netted the program new road signage and an eye-catching vehicle wrap. Big Rig, located off Sumas Way in Abbotsford, is a commercial vehicle centre. The company, owned by Paul McLeod and Bob Wiebe, designed, produced and installed 20 new 4x4-foot road signs and a full vehicle promotional wrap for a total value of about $3,500. The Honda sedan is now wrapped in red, white and yellow, and features the Operation Red Nose mascot Rudy. Linda Palm, the sedan owner and general manager of PacificSport Fraser Valley, estimates she drives at least 1,000 km in the lead-up to and during the service period. PacificSport is the host organization for Operation Red Nose in Abbotsford, Mission, Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows. Operation Red Nose involves teams of volunteers picking up groups or individuals and driving them home in their own car. The service is free, but donations are gratefully accepted for PacificSport, which supports athletes and coaches with travel, performance grants and other services. The designated driver service is available from 9 p.m. to 3 a.m. on Nov. 26 and 27, and Dec. 3, 4, 10, 11, 17, 18 and 31. To arrange a ride once service begins, call 604864-4814.

Official launch Operation Red Nose will hold its official kickoff this season on Friday. Abbotsford-Mission has been involved with the designated-driver

program for as long as it has operated in B.C. — 15 years. The family event will feature cake, photo opportunities with Rudy, speeches from community leaders and opportunities to meet the

The training is provided by a diverse group of experts including a retired judge, university professor, federal mediator, aboriginal elder, college educator, and others within the field of restorative justice. According to Darryl Gehlen, Restorative Resolutions manager, “Yes, the training is very interesting and engaging. But it is far more than just the subject matter – we examine

the very essence of human relationships, something that is closely tied to the meaning of justice.

Winter garbage collection woes Cancelled garbage collections as a result of winter road conditions undoubtedly present an inconvenience to residents, but are sometimes necessary to ensure everyone’s safety. Manoeuvring garbage trucks down narrow streets and steep slopes on icy roads can be a daunting task, not only putting garbage collectors, but other road users, at risk. Even if roads appear clear, snow banks may prevent collection vehicles from pulling off to the side, creating hazards for motorists and pedestrians. If your garbage was left at the curbside due to road conditions, please check the www. mission.ca website, call the collection contractor at 604820-6487, or listen to Country 107.1 for updated collection information. Should collection be postponed until the following week, please bring your garbage, compost and recyclables back inside. Instead of the usual two bins, you will be allowed to set out two garbage bins and two garbage bags (max. 80-L capacity and 20 kg weight each) on your regular collection

day the following week. If your garbage, recyclables or compost were the only materials

missed on your street, please verify that they were at the curb by 8 a.m., that they were visible and

accessible, and that they met all weight and size specifications. Worksafe BC Regulations stipulate that bags and containers must not exceed 20 kg in weight or 80 L in volume. Non-conforming materials should have received a sticker, explaining why pickup was suspended. If materials were left behind for no apparent reason, please phone the collection contractor directly at 604-820-6487. We apologize for any inconvenience and appreciate your patience. The district’s engineering department can be reached at 604820-3736.
