June - July 2016

Publisher's Note Welcome to the summer issue! This is the most popular time of year in Steveston Village. The sun shines, tourists arrive, film crews return and many of us opt to stay close to home to enjoy fun local events.

June kicks off with Doors Open Richmond celebrating arts, culture and heritage.

A dozen Doors Open sites are based in Steveston and showcase the area’s past and present with free entry. Take in the Sockeye Run Car Show and Shine in Steveston Park.

The school year is drawing to a close and children are looking forward to swimming in the Steveston Outdoor Pool and running through the waterpark. Steveston Farmers and Artisans Market is now located in the community centre’s parking lot and seems to be the ideal spot. O’Hare’s Gastropub hosts Steveston Wine Fest on June 25 which benefits Richmond Christmas Fund.

The biggest event of course is the Steveston Salmon Festival on July 1 in celebration of Canada’s birthday. A full guide is included in this issue. Ships to Shore is a three day event

in Steveston put on by the City of Richmond surrounding Salmon Festival. I look forward to the Canada Day fireworks display.

In this issue we feature Kulvir Aujla and her husband Sukhi, the new owners of Pizza Factory on First Avenue. They are quickly earning a reputation not only for their great tasting pizza but also for their warm and friendly service.

Since 2010 I have been a volunteer with the Steveston Merchants Association. We have worked tirelessly to promote local businesses and bring more customers to the village through seasonal events and small scale advertising. Read why it is time to move to a Business Improvement Area model and the benefits it can bring our entire community.

Enjoy summer in Steveston! Stroll along the boardwalk, buy fresh fish from the dock, fly a kite at Garry Point, go on a whale-watching tour, watch some filming, explore the local shops and dine on a waterfront patio.

Pizza Factory:

Warm Smiles and Great Tasting Pizza Story by Sarah Gordon

Photos by Sandra Steier

If you haven’t stopped by Pizza Factory recently it may be time to stroll in and meet the new owners who purchased the business three months ago. Kulvir Aujla and her husband Sukhi are quickly earning a reputation not only for their great tasting pizza but also for their warm and friendly service.

Sometimes when an opportunity crosses your path you have to jump at it. Kulvir was working in management at Walmart when she heard through the grapevine that Pizza Factory in Steveston was for sale. With an extensive background in the restaurant industry she felt the time was ripe to make the leap and run her own business.

The business is truly a family affair. Kulvir is the primary owner and Sukhi assists her in the kitchen along with marketing the business and making deliveries. Their niece Alyssa McGahey is also actively involved on the front end. In addition, Sukhi’s father and the couple’s son and daughter come in to assist and volunteer their time.

They gave the restaurant a fresh makeover with olive green paint, new seating, a new countertop and wall signage to showcase the full menu.

Another behind the scenes promoter is Sukhi’s mother. Kulvir says, “She is an ambassador and promotes Pizza Factory to seniors. Our kids have also been actively promoting the business to their friends and sports teams.”

A fun new seaside logo features a friendly orca named “Pep” (short for pepperoni).

In the future Pep will become a costumed mascot. They are grateful to Yeti Works in Steveston village for designing their fun logo and website. Sukhi and Kulvir point out that they are eager to support local businesses.

What are the couple finding most rewarding in the early days of running the business?

June - July 2016

www.StevestonInsider.com

They say working together for the first time is a pleasure. They are also feeling empowered being self-employed which allows them the freedom to make decisions for their business. They thoroughly enjoy getting to know their customers as they drop in and become regulars. Sukhi says, “Our intention is it run it like the TV show Cheers.”

“We’re having a good time.

That’s what we want to do.”

Sukhi Aujla The Aujlas live in Richmond’s Hamilton neighbourhood, but have always had an affinity for Steveston. They believe the two areas share a similar spirit. They are excited to be a part of Steveston’s business community and are demonstrating their philanthropic nature by supporting local events.

Recently they donated 15 pizzas to a group of McMath Secondary School students who participated in Convenant House’s Sleep Out to Support Homeless Youth.

Pizza Factory has also become the official pizza supplier for the Islanders 04 softball team. Kulvir says, “We are actively looking to support local sports teams in Richmond.”

Over the Easter weekend Pizza Factory staged a three day customer appreciation blitz. A team of 30 volunteers (aka friends and family) helped to conduct this marketing campaign by wearing matching “Ask me how to get a free slice” t-shirts as they handed out coupons throughout Steveston. People lined

up around the block to take advantage of this tempting offer and over the course of three days 1,300 slices were served. In the process they discovered ninety per cent of the people who dropped by the business didn’t know they existed.

To introduce more clients to their business they suggest swinging by on July 1 to see what fun things they will be doing to celebrate Canada Day. New to Pizza Factory are loyalty cards and pizza by the slice. High school students in particular appreciate being able to drop by at lunchtime with the new earlier business hours (open at 11 a.m.). For Kulvir and Sukhi it is all about forging a symbiotic relationship with their customers. Their intention is to always keep the question “what can we do for you?” in the foreground of conducting business. The direct result of a customer’s request, Pizza Factory now offers 15% off take out pizzas.

“Our customers appreciate us as much as we appreciate them.”

Kulvir Aujla While Pizza Factory is a franchise each location is given freedom to customize their business to best fit the community.

They are not restricted to abide by a set menu and can introduce special items such as chicken and veggie samosas, Punjabi-style pizza and butter chicken may soon be introduced. Some of the top sellers include Hawaiian, house special, taco, bacon burger, barbecue chicken, spinach and of course, kid pleasing favourites, cheese and pepperoni pizzas. Gluten-free is available for medium size pizzas and whole-wheat crust is available upon request. All of the dough is made fresh each morning.

“If we’re blessed by the pizza gods we make dough more than once a day.”

Sukhi Aujla

Every business has good stories and one unfolded during our interview. A Power Rangers film production member came in with a request for 42 pizzas for the crew, which were needed the following day. He had heard the buzz that Pizza Factory was the place to go for exceptionally friendly service.

It couldn’t happen to nicer people.

Steveston: Small Business Community Thinks Big Story by Sarah Gordon You may have heard people talking about the SMA and BIA, but what are they and what is the difference between them?

Business districts can dream big with input from a full membership’s participation at the board and committee level.

The Steveston Merchants Association (SMA) was formed in 2010 by a group of business owners whose goal was to promote local businesses and drive more customers to their services, shops and restaurants through seasonal events, small scale advertising, a website and social media. With an elective paid membership the SMA does not encompass the entire business district, resulting in a smaller funding pool although events and promotions benefit the entire village.

A simple way to explain a BIA is to imagine a shopping mall management system.

All malls have systems in place to drive customers to the mall to benefit business tenants. Steveston without a BIA is like an outdoor mall with no big picture promotional direction. It just isn’t competitive nor does it come close to realized improved potential.

An elected volunteer board is responsible for organizing popular events such as Christmas in Steveston Village, Girls’ Night Out, the Scarecrow Crawl and Trick or Treat in Steveston Village and has been a voice for many important area concerns.

While the work the SMA accomplishes is outstanding, the merchants’ association model is antiquated.

BIA stands for Business Improvement Areas and what this model offers is far reaching for both merchants and the entire community.

Examples of what can be achieved for Steveston include a year round focus for promotional programs and activities, collective advertising and special events designed to drive more visitors to the area.

Issues such as pedestrian scale lighting and parking improvements are also a focus of many BIAs.

Steveston’s business community is losing ground as business districts in virtually every surrounding region of Metro Vancouver and throughout B.C. have embraced BIAs. In comparison, Steveston is at a disadvantage without a BIA. 18

BIAs are able to plan further into the future to successfully promote areas. A BIA is approved by a vote and all businesses within a BIA’s boundaries automatically become members, creating a larger collective voice working for the betterment of businesses and the community.

A BIA is uniquely created for an area, no two are identical, and therefore Steveston could capitalize on its distinct locale where farmland meets the ocean and a historic fishing village.

Jim van der Tas, owner of the Blue Canoe Waterfront Restaurant (and president of the SMA) believes the sky’s the limit. He envisions everything from an Oktoberfest celebration spread over a number of days to celebrating a new Steveston heritage festival and transforming the entire village into a Christmas wonderland for the month of December to draw people to town.

Getting a BIA off the ground takes a lot of work and commitment from volunteers who believe that focusing on a bigger picture can produce some very effective results.

A new committee called the Steveston Business Development Association (SBDA) has formed under the SMA’s umbrella to partner cooperatively with other local nonprofits that see the value a BIA brings to an entire community.

June - July 2016

www.StevestonInsider.com

A municipality can’t force a BIA into a business community and generally shouldn’t stop a BIA start up group from asking them to initiate the voting procedure if the group has done positive outreach. After well over a decade of discussion Steveston merchants, land owners and key stakeholders have not gone before City council to ask for the BIA voting procedure but expect to this calendar year.

Peter Tong, owner of Steveston Pharmasave, comments,“ I think a BIA is very important for Steveston.”

“Looking at this unique location and the sensitivity businesses have in trying to protect the history, integrity and feel of the community; there are a lot of political and business challenges that are hard for each business to face alone,” Tong says.

He adds, “Promoting the village, rather than one single business, attracts more people and creates an atmosphere within the village that can only benefit Steveston. I think there are certainly frustrations amongst some business owners who have seen what other BIAs have done and strongly believe one is needed to start promoting the village. The sooner we get this done the better.”

Carol Janeczko, owner of Little Mexico Cantina, believes, "The opportunity to revitalize Steveston through the formation of a BIA is an exciting prospect.

Looking at other similar business districts such as Fort Langley and Cloverdale and seeing what they have accomplished for their communiJune - July 2016

ties through elaborate events, marketing and beautification projects is inspiring. It would be amazing to see Steveston advance to that level."

Jens Hertha, owner of D’Original Sausage Haus, agrees. “I am excited about the possibility of having a BIA in Steveston.

It would make Steveston stronger. For a business like mine the cost would be less than $200 per year.

I strongly believe that a BIA is an investment and everybody benefits from a strong, vibrant business district.”

Hertha believes, “This BIA initiative is a significant opportunity and every business and commercial property should plan to learn about it firsthand. This is too important an opportunity to be making a decision about a BIA based on nonfactual information or hearsay from third parties.

Make an appointment with the organizers to talk about it.”

Plan Your Work, Then Work Your Plan:

Making the most of your gym time

by Josh Harowitz You spend all this time and energy at the gym, but you’re likely not getting the maximum payback in return for the effort you’re putting in. For many casual gym-goers, the critical missing ingredient is simple: a plan.

Does this sound familiar? You hit the gym after work, but you are somewhat aimless as far as where to go and what to do. You start going through a routine of the same exercises that you’ve been doing for the past number of months, and then one of the following happens: you stare at the multitude of cardio machines and wonder which one is best for you; you try to mimic an interesting exercise the person next to you is doing. Eventually you leave, perhaps tired, but more so frustrated, unfulfilled, and dissatisfied with your workout.

It doesn’t have to be that way! As the proverb says, “he who fails to plan, plans to fail.”

Start by taking five minutes to ensure your energy investment pays maximum dividends. Write it down and stick to it. Then, before your next visit, rework your plan based on your specific goals. Maybe you want to increase your strength, size, and endurance, or perhaps just get in shape for hiking season—no matter what you’re working towards, the important thing is to do so with purpose.

And while expert advice is extremely helpful for things like perfecting your squatting or deadlifting technique, or understanding why you should be doing pulling exercises three-toone over pushing exercises since you work at a desk all day, you can certainly go a long way on your own.

Here’s a basic sample program to get you started.

Warm-Up Circuit: (3x in order) • • •

inchworms (x10) or jumping jacks (x30) back bridges with a 3 second hold at the top (15x) side plank (30 seconds to 1 minute)

Circuit #1: (three times in order) • • •

goblet box squats (15x) planks (45 seconds) half-kneeling cable rows (12x)

Circuit #2: (three times in order) • • •

weighted (optional) step-ups (10x for each leg) medicine ball slams (15x) incline pushups (15x)

Regardless of the routine you choose, the point is: make a plan and stick with it. You’ll be surprised how much more fulfilling those workouts become.

The 7 1 st annual

STEVESTON SALMON FESTIVAL Canada’s biggest little birthday party since 1945!

The people of Steveston have come together every year since 1945 to celebrate Canada’s birthday and the rich heritage of our community.

The day begins at 6:30am with a pancake breakfast, followed by a Citizenship Ceremony at 8:30am. At 10am, the Canada Day Parade winds through historic Steveston village, which features over 100 entries including floats, marching bands, celebrities, politicians, community groups, vintage vehicles and more. Then, the festival is

officially kicked off at the opening ceremonies on the main stage at noon with dignitaries, speeches and the singing of O Canada. After the official opening, the stage bursts with great entertainment all afternoon. Festival highlights include attractions such as the Japanese cultural show, car show, craft fair, trade show, an awesome children’s festival, martial arts demonstrations, youth festival, food fair plus an art show and exhibit.

The main attraction is the famous salmon barbecue where over 1200 pounds of wild salmon fillets are grilled over open fire pits.
