Assault victim appeals for an end to rowdy behaviour in area

Call for calm in Crescent Beach Hannah Sutherland Staff Reporter

A Crescent Beach resident who was assaulted by a group of youth Friday is now recovering from the serious facial injuries he sustained in the attack. Erik Seiz, 46, underwent surgery earlier this week to have a broken cheekbone reset, and a plate inserted where the bone supporting his left eyeball was “blown out.” While Seiz said has “no idea” how long recovery will be – his first assessment is scheduled for later this week – the prognosis is much better than it had been last week, after he was beaten with sticks

by a group of male teens near his home. “It looked like there would be no vision coming from the left eye anymore,” he said. “It looked really, really bad.” Having since learned his sight will return, Seiz applauds the “incredibly supportive” medical community, as well as the police “for following up as thoroughly as they did.” Five youths aged 14 to 16 are facing charges of assault with a weapon, and one has been charged with assault causing bodily harm. The teens – four are Langley residents and one is from Surrey – have been released to their parents,

and are to make a future court appearance. Cpl. Drew Grainger said the incident is unusual for the area given the age of the youth and the level of violence that was used in the assault. “It’s just so uncharacteristic of the quiet beach community of Crescent Beach.” Seiz said he had seen his assailants earlier Friday evening while he and his girlfriend sat on his deck. “They were drinking, carrying bottles, walking by,” he recalled. “They kind of shouted ‘hey’ to us Contributed photo and we said ‘hello’ back, and they carried on their Erik Seiz awaits treatment way to the beach.” see page A4 at Peace Arch Hospital.

As sun-seekers flock to White Rock Beach for yet another beautiful, warm day last weekend, Surrey resident Kevin Joy – an avid skateboarder and snowboarder – tries his hand at paddleboarding in the choppy waters of Semiahmoo Bay. The boards were made available for free last Saturday to beachgoers willing to take a stab at the surface-water sport.

351 driver charged with speeding, as police search for minivan

Passengers sent to hospital after bus cut off Martin van den Hemel Black Press

Nearly two dozen people riding a bus from White Rock were sent to hospital Sunday evening, after a crash south of the Oak Street Bridge in Richmond. The Coast Mount Bus was travelling its route on Highway 99 to Bridgeport Station. Police say they believe a light-coloured minivan – which had been travelling in the slow northbound lane – cut off the 351

bus around 9:20 p.m., causing the driver to swerve out of the bus lane, down a steep grass embankment and onto an on-ramp. It then swerved back toward the highway, before smashing into a cement barrier. Police announced Monday that the driver of the bus has been charged with speeding and failing to wear a seatbelt. Charged is Laurence Douglas Brand, 48, of Delta. Deas Island Traffic Service Cpl. Aaron Sproule said evidence indicate the minivan

made an abrupt lane change, causing the bus driver to take evasive action. “This is a classic example demonstrating what can happen when drivers fail to pay attention to their speed, their driving, and to what’s going on around them,” Sproule said. “The results can be catastrophic, especially when travelling at highway speeds.” Police are now seeking witnesses in the hope of tracking down the minivan driver. B.C. Ambulance Service’s Pascal Rodier

said the response to the crash was excellent. A Coast Mountain bus was brought to the scene, and after the victims were triaged, 16 people suffering from minor scrapes and bruises were loaded aboard and transported to Richmond Hospital, he said. Four others with more serious injuries were transported by ambulance to Vancouver General Hospital. Anyone with information about the minivan is asked to call police at 604-946-2184.

Watts’ popularity evident in aftermath of accident S ...and frankly

horse accident, at first in Royal Inland Hospital in Kamloops and later at Peace Arch Hospital, she was deluged with greetings from well-wshers. This isn’t surprising, as Canadians have always been sympathetic to their political leaders when they suffer health setbacks. At present, they are very concerned about NDP leader Jack Layton’s latest fight with cancer. But go back to the 1990s, when Bloc Quebecois leader Lucien Bouchard had a leg amputated due to flesh-eating disease. The outpouring of support for him from all across the country was genuine and heartfelt. Watts was the recipient of similar good wishes, and she says they were very gratefully received. “That was really very comforting to me in hospital, with all the well-wishes and thoughts and prayers,” Watts said. “That really helps a lot.” The mayor is undergoing therapy and hopes to be back at council when it resumes meeting in September. In the meantime, her biggest challenge is having to sit still more than she would like to. But she accepts the importance of proper healing. Surrey residents wish her a speedy recovery and look forward to seeing her back at work as soon as possible. Frank Bucholtz writes Fridays for the Peace Arch News. He is the editor of the Langley Times.

news Open doors added to smoke damage

Fire victims left homeless for 2-3 weeks Hannah Sutherland Staff Reporter

Residents who were evacuated from a Martin Street apartment building Sunday after a fire broke out in a second-storey suite will not be returning home anytime soon. White Rock fire Chief Phil Lemire said that while he doesn’t have a final estimate of when the building can be occupied again, it will be at least another two to three weeks. The source of the Aug. 14 fire was determined to be cooking that was left unattended, Lemire said, resulting in extensive damage to

the suite it started in, and smoke damage to second- and third-floor corridors. He said there was minimum smoke damage to other suites in the building, located at 1497 Martin St. (an incorrect address appeared in Tuesday’s Peace Arch News). The smoke damage to corridors, however, could have been minimized, Lemire said. “The smoke damage in the other corridors was more extensive because of fire doors that were wedged open that should be shut,” he said, noting the doors are typically opened in an attempt to cool hot buildings.

“The fact is, those doors are there for a purpose and it was clear on the second floor where the fire doors were kept shut, it controlled the smoke – there was virtually no smoke damage in the hallway – whereas the floor where fire doors were open was more damaged.” Everybody self-vacated the 20-suite building, Lemire said, and one man who was kept in hospital for observation was released Monday. Two cats that were removed from the building by firefighters were taken to a nearby veterinarian and are doing fine, he added.

As assessments are being done on the building, a number of residents are staying with friends or family, while others were put up through the Provincial Emergency Program, which looks after individuals’ immediate needs for the first couple days. While the incident is a reminder to use care when cooking, Lemire said his main issue is with the fire doors, which should always be kept closed. “When you see something that was there for their protection and wasn’t in place, it’s unfortunate.”

White Rock politics

Former city manager behind new slate Alex Browne Staff Reporter

His hat isn’t in the ring yet – but it’s moving closer. Former White Rock city administrator Wayne Baldwin has confirmed that he is one of the organizers of a new electoral group formed with an eye to fielding five candidates in the upcoming municipal election, Nov. 19. And he acknowledges he may also stand for nomination as one of the group’s candidates, along with two other well-known residents – former councillor Cliff Annable and Brad Forster, husband of former White Rock mayor Judy Forster. “We put in our papers to the City of White Rock Monday as Brad Forster a viable electoral ex-mayor’s spouse organization,” Baldwin said. “It is called Team White Rock, which is not a new name. It’s been used and abused before; but this organzation is very much new. Wayne Baldwin “We’re former manager not prodevelopment. We stand for good governance – that’s all.” Baldwin said the organization wants to nominate five candidates and intends to put out its first press release after Labour Day. “We don’t have all five yet – we’re still drumming them up,” he said. Baldwin retired as White Rock’s chief administrative officer in July of 2006 after a 23-year career here. He had previously been with the District of North Vancouver as deputy director of engineering services after a 15-year career with the Canadian Forces.

Society joins campaign initiated by blind resident

Group hears senior’s call for safety Alex Browne Staff Reporter

A Peace Arch News article highlighting a blind senior’s call for more audible crosswalks in White Rock has resulted in action from the Semiahmoo Peninsula Seniors Planning Table. A letter to White Rock’s mayor and council calls for the installation of more such crosswalks, and increased crossing times, according to Natasha Raey of Sources Community Resources Society, hosts of the planning table. Raey said the letter was inspired by an Aug. 11 news article, in which Marie-Claire Letnick, who suffers from macular degeneration, said audible signals were particularly needed around the Hillcrest area of the city near the White Rock Community Centre. Raey said the letter is being submitted in time for the item to be included in council’s agenda for its meeting in September.

Alex Browne photo

Marie-Claire Letnick asks for audible signals. Coun. Lynne Sinclair, who is a member of the planning table, has expressed interest in championing the issue, Raey said, adding it will also be on the agenda for the planning table’s first

meeting in September “to see if there are any other actions we can be taking.” “We have been in existence for three years to help people with just such issues,” Raey said. “Something like this can help create public awareness, and help us make this a real agefriendly community.” In the letter, while commending safety measures already taken by the city with regard to roadways and crossings, the planning table said audible crosswalks are “a necessity for our aging population.” Among members of the planning table are funding organization United Way of the Lower Mainland, White Rock Library, Care To Call, Fraser Health, Crescent Gardens Retirement Community, Alexandra Neighbourhood House, Nurse Next Door, the White Rock/ South Surrey Come Share Society and the Alzheimer Society of B.C.

Thirty minutes later, around 11 p.m., he heard a noise at the front door. “We went back out to the deck where we had just said hello to these guys and they had taken large pieces of driftwood from a container that we have right there and they were beating on the fence and the entranceway.” Seiz said the sticks were round, varying from four to eight feet in length, and were being banged against the house and path entrances, and the path fence. “They all had, effectively, clubs… and they were assaulting the house.” Seiz said he yelled at the teens and hopped off the deck to pursue them as they dispersed down Maple Street. “We got about a block away and they turned and struck.” Seiz said he was circled and received the first blow to the head from behind, before others joined in on the beating. “It happened so quickly,” said Seiz, who also suffered a broken nose. “You’re just sort of reacting from a threatening position… I didn’t lose consciousness but definitely things are quite fuzzy.” A security guard working for a nearby movie crew scared the boys off. “Thank God for the security guard at the movie set. I really don’t know where this would’ve ended up, because there was no evidence of these guys stopping.” Seiz said a nearby kayaker created a tourniquet for his eye, guided the 911 call, assisted paramedics and police and comforted his girlfriend.

The exterior walls of Surrey’s newest building lean back into what looks like a comfortable reading position. The sun-drenched interior of the 77,000-sq.-ft. City Centre Library was buzzing with activity Tuesday morning, as staff stocked shelves with books for the upcoming opening. The Bing Thom Architectsdesigned building went up quickly due to a compressed deadline in order to receive federal funding. “It was built about twice as fast as you would normally do,” said Michael Heeney, executive director for Bing Thom Architects. Despite that, the $36-million project came in on budget. (The federal and provincial governments each provided $10 million, with the City of Surrey funding the rest). Entering the building, one is struck by intense light. Floor-toceiling windows splay outward, preventing direct sunlight, but affording ample ambient light. At the top of the four-storey building is what Heeney calls a halo skylight, a circular piece of glass with a white board hanging below it. At one time of the day, the skylight will cast light on the Leader Living Room. Hours later, the sunlight will hit the laptop lounge. The new North Surrey facility is

There are luna chairs, egg-shaped features that surround the person sitting in them. Anyone with an MP3 player can plug into the chairs and listen to surround sound, which remains contained within the cloth chair. There is even a meditation room, which also serves as a Muslim prayer room facing northeast to Mecca. There will also be a “Human Library,” where volunteers will be on loan to talk for an hour or so. These human books may have particular religious or life experience that library-goers may want explore.

Architect Bing Thom said he approached the design from the notion that libraries are no longer just repositories for books. “The design evolves out of the need to provide space for reading, studying and, above all, gathering as a community,” he said. There are more than 80 computers throughout, and Wi-Fi access so those with laptops and tablets can access the Internet. The City Centre Library will be the biggest in Surrey, housing more than 100,000 books (and the ability to hold 150,000). The 10350 University Dr. facility will open to the public later this month, with a grand opening celebration slated for Sept. 24, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.

editorial

Steady as she goes on debt and spending ommentators worried that Canadians will go on a spending spree if interest rates stay steady or decline needn’t worry. Canucks are wily, not thick, and they aren’t going to follow in the footsteps of their American counterparts who spent like crazy and then lost their homes and livelihoods when the debt crisis emerged. One would have to have been living in a cave not to have noticed the financial meltdown in the U.S. that forced many to abandon their homes and Canadians can and will learn from their mistakes. Instead of buying larger homes or purchasing more consumables, Canadians are likely to take advantage of lower interest rates to pay down their mortgages. This is a wise move because savings for retirement are going to take a hit because of lower interest rates, so getting rid of debt before the age of 65 is a good idea. There are already hints Canadians have reached their comfort zone when it comes to debt. The Certified General Accountants Association reports the pace of debt expansion declined in 2010 and the first quarter of 2011, although it’s still alarmingly high, at $1.5 trillion. If that debt were spread equally across all Canadians, it would amount to $176,461 for a family of two children, according to the CGA. British Columbians are in one of the worst positions compared to other provinces thanks to continued high house prices. There is a good side and a bad side to having an expensive house: You can borrow against it to finance other purchases, such as renovations, but you have to pay that debt back, and even getting into the real estate market means acquiring a huge debt. British Columbia has the highest debt-service ratio and we pay 9.4 per cent of our disposable income to service debt interest payments. Residents of New Brunswick enjoyed the lowest debt-service burden, which claimed only 5.6 per cent of their disposable income. While business and financial commentators worry the announcement by the U.S. Federal Reserve to sit tight on interest rates for two years will only encourage Americans to take on more debt, the best hope is that consumers will use the opportunity to climb out of the morass. The same should go for Canadians if our central bank also keeps interest rates steady instead of hiking them as originally predicted.

Childhood memories can be funny that way – sometimes you only remember what you want to remember. Because in reality, I know the havoc Bacon and people of his ilk have caused. I know his two younger brothers are locked up for a reason, and there’s not much room for randomness in a targeted hit. I also know that two innocent men, Chris Mohan and Ed Schellenberg, are not with us today because they were murdered as a result of being in the wrong place at the wrong time. So I’m no gang sympathizer here. I don’t cheer for the bad guys in movies. But I didn’t go to elementary school with many Hollywood villains, so perhaps that’s why. Or perhaps, last Sunday, when Jonathan’s death was first reported, I was mourning the fact that somewhere over the course of the last two decades, something went very wrong for one of us, and I don’t know why, or how. Or maybe, like my friend suggested, it really was just nostalgia. So while some celebrate – and others worry, rightfully, about potential retaliation – and police laud the fact that another dangerous gangster is off our streets, I choose instead to remember a time long ago, before any of this, when a couple kids used to run around the neighbourhood playing ‘war’ with plastic guns. Because now we’re dying by real ones, and I can’t cheer about that. Nick Greenizan is a reporter at the Peace Arch News.

All dogs can be Energy should unpredictable be safe, clean Editor: Please accept this as a letter of warning to those who walk through Ruth Johnson Park in White Rock. My dog was taken for a walk in the park by my brother-in law on Saturday and was viciously attacked by an off-leash Doberman-cross. My brother-in-law had to wrestle the Doberman off of my small terrier. My dog sustained a bite to his neck that required three staples and, of course, antibiotic treatments. My brother-in law was understandably angry with the owner – her response to the fearsome beating her dog gave mine was to blame my brother-in-law for not carrying our dog. She took no responsibility and expressed no remorse over what her dog did. This is not a letter to indict Dobermans, but rather to warn the public of the irresponsible behaviour of this owner. Unfortunately, this is not the first time we have encountered aggressive dogs off leash in this park where it clearly states dogs must be leashed. My brother-in-law saved my dog only by throwing himself on top of her dog. I am not sure I could have done that, and I shudder to think what would have happened if my 11-year-old son had been walking our dog at the time. Keeping dogs leashed is an important safety precaution for everyone. All dogs can be unpredictable, and there are far too many owners who have a cavalier attitude towards others’ safety. M. Brown, White Rock

More blasts from the past Editor: The annual assault on residents from blueberry cannons is in full swing right now. Every year the same ridiculous, archaic practice of firing timed propane explosions manages to aggravate neighbours more than deter birds – often birds that aren’t even present. Every year the farmers are aware of guidelines in place, but some choose to willfully ignore them because there is no penalty for starting cannons early, running them late or firing them throughout the noon-to-3 p.m. silence period. Local politicians choose to ignore the issue by hiding behind the provincial regulations, rather than enforce noise bylaws applicable to every other citizen and industry. At the same time, they gladly accept tax money from residents who buy property next to these war zones. It’s time some of our smiley-face local politicians got off their behinds to help residents unfortunate enough to live near blueberry fields. If residents are disturbed by cannons, let the blueberry council know – info@bcblueberry.com – and your local politicians. Evelyn Magee, Surrey

Editor: The 66th anniversary of the atomic bomb blasts that destroyed the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki has been accompanied this year in Japan by calls for the country to develop safer sources of energy such as solar, wind and biomass. Until the meltdown of the

Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant last March, Japan had been planning to boost the country’s nuclear power supply to 50 per cent by 2030. Now, only 16 of the country’s 54 reactors are operating, and more will soon go offline for maintenance amid growing reluctance to restart them again. Nuclear energy may be clean, but safety is clearly a concern in an earthquake-prone area like Japan, and I think Japanese are therefore wise to be seeking out safer renewable energy sources. We face the same earthquake

concern here in B.C. However, unlike Japan, nuclear energy is not on the horizon in B.C. because of the wealth of renewable clean-energy resources we have to draw upon. We are fortunate to have so much available right on our doorstep. We also have growing expertise with renewable energy that we could share with countries like Japan that are seeking safer, cleaner supplies of energy. After all, a world with safer, cleaner energy is in everyone’s best interest. Charles Davis, White Rock

Readers suggest the City of White Rock might be better served as a community within the larger City of Surrey.

Future of White Rock looks north Editor: Re: South Surrey urged to join White Rock, Aug. 4. White Rock Coun. Grant Meyer should be congratulated, but he’s facing the wrong way! I’ll be charitable and ascribe Meyer the most worthy motives: He should be congratulated for his crusade in search of a solution to White Rock’s continuing decline. However, he is naive in thinking South Surrey would have the slightest interest in leaving a dynamic, futureoriented city to join White Rock – the high-tax basket case where a small but vocal group seems steadfast in refusing to accept change and today’s realities. City of White Rock ‘community’ is, in reality, only a neighbourhood. Unsustainable in every sense – too small and limited to shape an effective vision and strategy of its own – White Rock is, in fact, just one part of our true, high-potential community that extends Peninsula wide. Practically all our local cultural, environmental and economic associations operate under a uniting, dual White Rock/South Surrey banner. But not our local government? There is something wrong here. Local-government amalgamation is the answer. City of Surrey must absorb White Rock, in a simple, mutually beneficial transformation under the existing provisions of the Local Government Act. The Corporation of the City of White Rock as a legal entity should be dissolved forthwith. White Rock neighbourhood should seek to join South Surrey, alongside Ocean Park, Crescent Beach, Grandview etc. This re-invented ‘White Rock’ can then take a leading role in consolidating and focusing the true community – across the Peninsula and beyond. Robert Tibbs, White Rock

Quixotic undertaking Bravo to Coun. Grant Meyer for attempting a good offence, rather than preparing a good defence. The buzz on coffee row is “amalgamation” with Surrey, and you can pick any number of incidents in the past few years to illustrate White Rock’s increasing need to get into Surrey’s deep pockets.

However, Meyer – facing re-election and a possible demand for a referendum – has pointed to that fantasy from the past, that proverbial windmill, mounted his brave horse, and is certain the White Rock takeover of the increasingly prosperous property owners of South Surrey is a worthy goal. His banner promises direct access for deprived Surreyites to city hall in White Rock. I do enjoy the personal service of our staff and professionals. But, truth be known, the City of Surrey website is a marvel of information, and a phone call to the appropriate department brings a personal response to fulfill even the most inquiring of minds. If we followed the logic of providing a city hall within short distance for every resident of the 19 municipalities of GVRD, we would easily double in city councils, administrations and staff. In these times of economic contraction, is Meyer promoting taxsupported bureaucracy as a growth business? What is the opposite of amalgamation? Today, I banked in White Rock and walked across North Bluff to the Semiahmoo Mall, and immediately saw the wide sidewalk, treed boulevard, mosaic, landscaped buffers and even benches. I looked back across the White Rock wall to vacant businesses, heaving side walks, and dilapidated storefronts. Well done, Coun. Meyer, riding off in pursuit of that windmill of fantasy, but time has moved on and White Rock is now little more than yesterday’s dream. Larry Robinson, White Rock

questions? 604.531.1711

Ask the right question There is no interest on the part of South Surrey residents to abandon Surrey to join White Rock. Why is the question raised? White Rock is heavily taxed and poorly administered. It is plain to see that it is too small to exist as a city. The elected officials in White Rock need to consider offering White Rock’s property owners a way to express their opinion on the question, “Do you want to join the City of Surrey?” The result might be interesting.

COUNCIL UPDATE COMMUNITY GARDEN At the end of June we officially opened the first community garden in White Rock and the gardeners couldn’t wait to get started. Soon plants were sprouting and the gardeners were sharing gardening tips. Although they may not know it, these gardeners are on the cutting edge of a growing environmental movement. Have you heard of the local food movement, being on the “100 mile diet” or being a locavore? These terms are synonymous with eating locally, an environmentally friendly option that is gaining ground. One way to become part of the local food movement is to grow your own food. That’s exactly what members of the White Rock Community Garden are doing and they’re already enjoying the fruits of their labour. Locally grown food is fresher and tastes better. It benefits the environment, improving air quality and reducing pollution as it doesn’t need to travel to a grocery store. The act of gardening also promotes relaxation and stress reduction. When gardening in community, people create a greater sense of community and become a source of gardening and local food information. Gardens produce food all year round, creating a wide variety of different vegetables for growers to enjoy. This is another health benefit, as eating with the seasons results in a broader variety of foods being consumed. Their passion for gardening extends beyond the boundaries of their garden plots. The community group that organizes and operates the garden offers educational opportunities through workshops. They recently hosted their first workshop, “Winter Gardening” and are excited about future educational events. The community garden was part of Council’s goal for a healthy community and we are happy to see it come to fruition. A healthy community needs to include a food sustainability plan. We are on our way. Although all the garden plots in the White Rock Community Garden are currently in use, interested individuals can contact Lora, the site coordinator at lora@urbanedendesign.ca or 778.558.7524 for more information on how to secure a future plot. When scheduled, upcoming gardening workshops will be posted on the City’s web site.

Hit ‘targeted’ Kelowna of Jonathan Bacon of the Red Scorpions gang. “It’s way too early to make those kind of speculative remarks,” Grainger said Tuesday. Experts believe there will be some type of retaliatory strike for Sunday’s fatal shooting. That’s not lost on Surrey RCMP. Grainger said because the shootings tend to be highly targeted, the public has no cause for alarm but should avoid places known to be frequented by gangsters. “Here we have a spike in gang activity,” he said. “The public needs to be mindful of the environment that they are in, because often we have seen innocent victims because of this gang violence.”

Police are exploring gang links to a shooting in Guildford this week involving three people known to operate in the criminal underworld. At about 10:40 p.m. Monday, gunmen approached an SUV at 100 Avenue and 153 Street and fired shots into the vehicle. One occupant was injured by flying glass, but no one was hit by the hail of bullets. Police say it was a targeted shooting. “They have connections in the criminal underworld,” said Surrey RCMP Cpl. Drew Grainger. He could not say whether the shooting was a retaliation for last weekend’s killing in

Jewelry employee shot An employee at a jewelry store in Newton was shot during an attempted robbery last weekend. The Sona Chandi jewelry store (8430 128 St.) employee was shot in the abdomen, police said. His wounds have been described as serious, but not life-threatening. Police are seeking several suspects who fled in a vehicle.

perspectives …on the Semiahmoo Peninsula

Freda Zhang crowned in Merritt last week

‘Princess’ now B.C. ambassador Hannah Sutherland Staff Reporter

Jade Swartzberg/Merritt Herald photo

Freda Zhang was named a B.C. Ambassador last week.

White Rock’s Freda Zhang has been crowned a B.C. Ambassador. The Semiahmoo Secondary student received the title along with fellow candidates Paris Sanesh from Kamloops and Sarah Simon from Merritt Saturday night, following months of preparation for the B.C. Ambassador pageant that took place in Merritt last week. “It was very shocking when they announced my name,” Zhang said Tuesday after returning home. “I was surprised, definitely, because all of the contestants have worked really hard and we all prepared really well – we are all qualified to be

an ambassador for British Columbia.” Candidates were judged on their general knowledge of B.C. during a three-hour written test, as well as their public speaking abilities, presentation skills and talent performances. During her community speech presentation Friday evening, Zhang – who, at 17, is the youngest of the contestants – dressed as a starfish and spoke of her beautiful seaside community. As well as being crowned, Zhang also won the talent award and knowledge exam, and was a finalist in the public speaking and promotional award categories. She will receive $4,500 in bursaries for her education, which she is to continue after gradu-

ating next year. Zhang said she plans to attend university out of province, and pursue a career as a lawyer. “It will probably be a very busy year, but I’m really looking forward to it because I know the program will boost my confidence and open more possibilities for me.” The B.C. Ambassador provincial program was founded to instil leadership qualities, assist in post-secondary education expenses and create networking opportunities and friendships throughout B.C. The program is open to men and women aged 17 to 23 who have held previous titles in their own communities. see page A12

Smiles all around Thousands of men and women – including a team from South Surrey Smiles orthodontic office – hit the streets of Vancouver last weekend at the eighth annual Weekend to End Women’s Cancers event. Participants walked 60 km and raised thousands of dollars for the BC Cancer Foundation in the fight against breast and other women’s cancers. The South Surrey Smiles team – captained by Stacey Feilen – raised $12,000 themselves, through a fundraising pledge drive prior to the event, which ran Aug. 13-14. This year’s event was also memorable in that participants reached a cumulative milestone of $20-million raised through the eight years it has been held. “The generosity and hard work of each participant, countless donors, and volunteers over the inspiring eight year span of this event, has led to great advances towards our vision of a world free from cancer,” said Douglas Nelson, BC Cancer Foundation President and CEO. “Your efforts have helped us move farther than we ever thought possible.” LEASE FOR

Hit the road packing protection. Whether itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s soaking up the last days of summer on a road trip, or a quick jaunt across the border for groceries or gas, make sure your car insurance is ready for the trip too. Here are a couple of things you can do to be sure: Understand your coverage limits and deductibles. Know what coverages and deductibles you carry for your vehicle. Refer to your insurance documents and ensure you have the following coverages:

I switched because I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to count transactions.

purchase a minimum of $3,000,000. You may wish to increase this before you leave. Proof of Insurance - Keeping your documents with you. Having adequate car insurance canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t help unless you keep your documents with you. When crossing the border, you may be asked to produce your car registration to show proof of ownership. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also helpful to have on hand, your documents and a 24-hour e m e r g e n c y claim telephone number from your insurance company should you be involved in an accident.

Keeping safe. Your safety is first priority. Ensure that your travel route is planned with the help of a good map or global positioning device and drive to the posted speed limits. Remember to limit the use of your cell phone, even through blue tooth devices, unless itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an emergency, as laws on cell phone usage vary in different provinces and states. Lastly, donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t forget to pack your travel insurance, even for a quick trip across the border, to avoid financial devastation if you fall sick or have an accident while youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re away. Visit your local BCAA Sales Centre to ensure you are prepared with the right coverage and information for peace-ofmind on your next road trip.

A slow summer walk at Blackie Spit Park L

ike good food or a glass of wine, nature is best savoured slowly. Sitting in one place for a while, or strolling quietly, taking notice of small sounds and movements, is a great way to experience nature. If you go too fast, it is easy to overlook the abundance of interesting Anne Murray plants, birds and other wildlife found in local parks. Blackie Spit at Crescent Beach, South Surrey, is a great place for summer idling. The summerblooming flowers and grasses, on the gravel spit and around the lagoons, range in colour from the brilliant yellow of the aptlynamed gumweed, to the purple of vetches, and the white flowers of yarrow. These plants are tolerant of the exposed conditions, the hot summer sun and raw winter winds, and the poor nutrient value of the sandy soil. Those nearest the water, such as sea rocket, have rubbery leaves, able to withstand the high salt content. Slowly scanning the water usually reveals the round head of a harbour seal; they often haul up on sand banks at low tide.

There is plenty to see – from wildlife to landscapes – during a walk through Blackie Spit Park. Swallows hawk the skies above the park and, looking closely, as many as five or six species can be distinguished. Barn swallows have dark blue backs and long forked tails, tree swallows have brighter blue backs and short tails, and violet-green swallows live up to their name if

seen in the right light. Blackie Spit is unusual in the Lower Mainland for also having a colony of purple martins, nesting in boxes at the mouth of the Nicomekl River. They are significantly larger than the other swallows and have a louder call. The unobtrusive little savannah

sparrow makes its home among the grasses, nesting on the ground and eating seeds, caterpillars and other insects. It has a high-pitched, insect-like song. More high, thin notes signal the arrival of a group of cedar waxwings, flying in to feast on elderberries, while harsh cries

overhead are those of Caspian terns, distinguished from gulls by their blood-red bills. All these birds are summer visitors to the bay. Many more species arrive during fall migration and for the winter, including big flocks of waterfowl and shorebirds. Sand wasps are among the more noticeable insects; they are colourful creatures, with bright yellow legs, green eyes and striped abdomens. They are unlikely to sting and spend most of their time in groups, very close to the sandy ground, digging holes.

AUDITIONS

Peninsula Ron Wiseman talent on PNE stage There are more local young performers to cheer for at this weekend’s PNE Star Showdown. Drummer Stefan Grabowski and his band Mortal Soil will be competing in the contest semi finals this Saturday, 1:30-2:30 p.m. at the WestJet Concert Stage in the fair’s Central Park. The Earl Marriott student and his bandmates, Michael James and Tek Leang, will be vying for the top spot with another Earl Marriott performer, dancer Angella Slaunwhite, who will perform a lyrical solo. The PNE contest is not the first competition for Mortal Soil. The band made it to the semi-finals in the Surrey City Jam this year, alongside Marriott talent (and ultimate winner) Tommy Alto. Grabowski – a longtime participant in the Todd Brewer School of Music who currently studies at Tapestry Music – was also in the Surrey City Jam semifinals last year as a solo drum artist. He has already made some positive contacts in the L.A. music scene during trips there for drum clinics, and has played at the famous Baked Potato jazz club with John Ziegler. Mortal Soil played at the recent Jamaican Festival at Holland Park, and is set to perform at the Surrey Youth Fest (Sept. 24).

…on the Semiahmoo Peninsula

Naa Sheka Riby-Williams set to play with Ghana national team

Selects struggle at Series

Africa calling Nick Greenizan

Sports Reporter

hen the email came, Naa Sheka RibyWilliams thought it was some kind of joke – perhaps the type of email you receive when a Nigerian prince wants to unload upon you half of his vast fortune. Why, she wondered, would the president of the Ghana Basketball Association be asking her – a Semiahmoo Secondary grad, budding fashion designer and former college hoops player – to suit up for the Ghana national women’s team for an upcoming tournament? After all, it had been some time since she’d been to Ghana – which is where her fashion business is partly based – and longer still since she’d played basketball. “It was about two months ago, and I was shocked,” explained the 26-year-old South Surrey resident, who has split her time between the Peninsula and Ghana since 2006. Turns out, a highlight tape she had given the hoops president back in about 2007 – during one of two semesters she spent playing basketball and studying at the University of Ghana – was still circulating. And with Ghana’s women’s team having earned just its third-ever invite to the FIBA African Championship, where the winning team earns an Olympic berth, team brass was scouring the globe for talent. “I was really surprised to hear from them now, but I decided to go. I mean, why not?” she said. The tournament runs Sept. 23 until Oct. 2 in Bamako, the capital city of Mali. Suiting up for Ghana – Riby-Williams holds dual citizenship – completes an interesting path for the South Surrey resident, who, because her father was born in Ghana, decided almost on a whim to pack up and move there five years ago. It also allows her to pay homage to her father, Charles, a hard-working mechanic whose battle with cancer – which he lost in November 2009 – was what halted his daughter’s hoop dreams in the first place. ••• Riby-Wiliams had always been an exceptional athlete, and she excelled on the hardcourt. At Semiahmoo Secondary, she played on the senior team from Grade 9 until she graduated, and from there accepted a basketball scholarship to Johnson C. Smith University, a small NCAA Div. 2 school in Charlotte, N.C.

Next month, Naa Sheka Riby-Williams will debut with Ghana’s national basketball team. After short stint in the south – “unfortunately, things just didn’t work out,” she said – RibyWilliams returned home, where she studied nursing and played ball at Langara College. It was after two years at Langara that RibyWilliams suddenly got the bug to travel, and “just randomly” she admitted, quit school and moved to Ghana – but not without considerable efforts to persuade her father to let her go. “At first he was like, ‘No way, no way.’ He didn’t want me to go there. It’s a Third-World country, so you’ve got to have street smarts, and he didn’t know if I had those or not,” she explained,

adding she had been to Ghana a few times as a child. “He really didn’t know me too well at the time because my parents are split up, and I lived with my mom. I had to convince him, had to literally beg him, to let me go.” Eventually, her father caved, and off she went. “I hated it for the first five months – it was so different,” she said. By the second semester, Riby-Williams had become interested enough in local fashion to start her own company, West African Fashion, which is produced in Ghana and distributed see page A29

Heading into the Cal Ripken World Series, head coach Ed McLaughlin knew his White Rock Selects squad would be in a tough spot. After all, his team of 12-year-old ballplayers would be matching up against some of the world’s best in their age group. The head coach’s prediction proved correct, as the Peninsula squad lost its first four games in the round-robin tournament, which began Saturday in Aberdeen, Md. White Rock, representing Canada at the event, didn’t get to ease its way into the tournament, either – the squad’s first game was against the powerhouse Japanese team Saturday. Japan, a pre-tournament favourite, won the game 31-1. “They were unbelievable, and we made lots of errors, but those (Japan) kids have been together six months,” said White Rock assistant coach Melissa Bonn. “But we’re having an absolutely fabulous time.” The team’s lone run came in the second inning, when Jax Mullin walked, stole second and third base, and then scored on an error by Japan pitcher Ryoken Nakanishi. The next three outings were far closer, with White Rock dropping games to Mexico (8-0), Korea (9-2) and on Tuesday, to Australia (9-4). White Rock played the Dominican Republic Wednesday after Peace Arch News’ deadline. Though they are still searching for their first win, there have been plenty of bright spots through four games. Marc Ashford is having success at the plate, and is 5-for-11 (.455 batting average) with a double in four contests, while Hudson MacMillan and Josh Cheng have four and three stolen bases, respectively. The tournament wraps up Sunday, Aug. 21. - Nick Greenizan

Weinberger golden at London meet Lurtz and Greeceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Spyros Giannianos â&#x20AC;&#x201C; both medallists at world championships â&#x20AC;&#x201C; finished second and third, respectively. Next summer, Weinberger, who was 17th in the 10-km event at worlds in Shanghai, will swim at an Olympic qualifying meet in Portugal.

Nick Greenizan Sports Reporter

Just getting the opportunity to swim the Olympic openwater course in London was exciting enough for Richard Weinberger, but he did himself one better Saturday, winning the menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 10-km race at the Serpentine in Hyde Park. Weinberger, 21, won the race in a time of one hour, 50 minutes and 49.8 seconds, which puts the Surrey native â&#x20AC;&#x201C; who now trains in Victoria â&#x20AC;&#x201C; â&#x20AC;&#x153;right into the fight for an Olympic medal,â&#x20AC;? according to his coach at the University of Victoria, Peter Vizsolyi. The gold medal

sports Surrey Eaglesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; co-owner brings Stanley Cup to the Fraser Valley

Bradley gets his day with the Cup Dan Kinvig Black Press

Robert Hillier might still be considered a new dad, but heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s already got a pretty good eye for a cute baby photo. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s how three-month-old Chloe Hillier found herself seated inside the bowl of the Stanley Cup on Monday afternoon in the pediatrics ward at Abbotsford Regional Hospital. The significance of spending time quality time with the most famous trophy in North American team sports seemed lost on the youngster, who was born eight weeks premature and is still a frequent guest at ARH as doctors try to fine-tune her diet to help her gain weight. But the moment brought a broad smile to her dadâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s face. â&#x20AC;&#x153;To have the Stanley Cup right in front of you is amazing,â&#x20AC;? Robert Hillier marveled. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I just thought, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;How cute of a picture would it be to have her up there?â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? The Stanley Cupâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s stop at ARH was part of a whirlwind tour of Abbotsford, courtesy of Boston Bruins director of player personnel Scott Bradley, who is also a co-owner and player development consultant with the Surrey Eagles. The long-time Abbotsford resident â&#x20AC;&#x201C; who bought into the

Dan Kinvig photo

Scott Bradley and the Stanley Cup touch down in Abbotsford. Eagles before last season, along with long-time friends Chuck Westgard and Gary Nylund â&#x20AC;&#x201C; earned the right to to spend a day with the Cup after his Bruins defeated the Vancouver Canucks in a thrilling sevengame NHL final series in June. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This whole thing is still kind of surreal,â&#x20AC;? Bradley said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pretty neat to share it with all my friends and family. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been everything Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d imagined it would be, and even more.â&#x20AC;? Bradleyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s day with the Cup began at 8 a.m., when he picked it up in Vancouver and loaded

it onto his friend Dean Russellâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s helicopter. From there, they flew it out to Bruins scout Dean Malkocâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s house in the Buntzen Lake area. Then it was off to Bradleyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s house in Abbotsford for a private photo shoot with his family. Next stop was the hospital, then the Baron Bar and Grill near the Abbotsford Airport, where fans could have their photo taken with the Cup in exchange for a $10 donation to Miracle Flights for Kids Canada â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a charity that supplies low-income sick children with

flights for medical treatment in distant locations. To close out the day, Bradley planned to bring the Cup back to his house for a private party. Being whisked around by helicopter certainly helped to maximize the number of activities he was able to book. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The helicopter was the cherry on top,â&#x20AC;? he said with a chuckle. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the only way to travel. We missed all the traffic.â&#x20AC;? Bradley said one of the highlights was taking the trophy into the radiation centre at ARH. He survived two bouts with cancer in his right knee in 2005 and 2008. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s humbling to see peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s faces light up,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I know how it feels to be in there. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I cherish every day that Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m here. When you see it can all be taken away from you, you really appreciate things like this.â&#x20AC;? Bradley was curious how bringing the Stanley Cup into the heart of Canucks territory would be received. However, Canuck fans were thrilled to see hockeyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s holy grail in person, no matter if it was part of a Bruinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s celebration. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m just happy it came to Abbotsford,â&#x20AC;? said Justin Atha, after posing for a photo with the Cup.

OBITUARIES

SAMPSON, Stanley Wellington Oct. 23, 1915 - Aug. 8, 2011 It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Stan Sampson, beloved husband, father and grandfather. Stan passed away peacefully surrounded by his loving family. The day before Stan passed away he was still making people smile with his singing. Stan was born in Waldron, Saskatchewan to Bertha and Edward Sampson the fourth of five children. His father passed away from the great influenza of 1917 and the family then moved to Watson where Stan grew into an outstanding athlete. Stan excelled at hockey and was a very fast playing right winger who loved every minute on the ice. Stan played with the Saskatoon Wesley’s, Saskatoon Quakers, Regina Vics, Swift Current Indians, Drumheller Miners and had a short stint with the Chicago Black Hawks before being transferred to the New York Rangers. In December 1942 he enlisted in the army and was stationed in London, England. After returning from the war Stan moved to Melfort where he worked for the Saskatchewan Liquor Board for the next 36 years retiring as manager. In his spare time Melfort Athletics. In 1946 Stan had his first of four sons, Robert Trydal. Stan married Helen Tkachuk in Melfort in 1951 and they had three sons Edward (1951), Dennis(1952) and Chad(1959). They spent all their free time at McPhee lake where they built a cabin on the lakefront. He enjoyed the serenity and beauty of nature with many hours fishing in the lake. In 1987 Stan and Helen moved to Surrey, BC. Stan enjoyed living at the coast and was a very active man still bicycling around his neighbourhood at 93. Stan watched with great pride as his family grew up around him. Stan loved family gatherings, cards, games, singing, his afternoon coffee at the mall and attending his grandchildren’s activities. On April 11th , 2011 Stan and Helen celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary. Stan was predeceased by his parents, brother Hubin and sisters Myrl, Judy and Bernice. Left to mourn his loss is his loving wife Helen Sampson, sons and grandchildren Bob(Glenna) and Katie Trydal; Ed (Sheila) and Levi(Stacey), Daniel(Claire), and Casey Sampson; Dennis(Melane), Mark, Trisha, Michael and David Sampson; and Chad Sampson. A Celebration of Life was held on August 13th in Surrey, BC. Stan will be missed but not forgotten and will remain in our hearts forever.

Acoustica Hearing While hearing problems generally come on gradually and rarely result in complete deafness, even the mildest hearing loss can be emotionally challenging for both the patient and their loved ones. Surprisingly, however, studies show only one in ﬁve people will seek out a hearing device.

FACTORY DIRECT! best digital processing ever developed John Jahanshahi

Reza Jahanshahi

“Hearing loss at any level makes it difficult to connect with the world around you,” say brothers John and Reza Jahanshahi, owners of Acoustica Hearing (in partnership with Siemens, one of the world’s leading hearing aid manufacturers). “However, with today’s technology, this can be addressed far more easily, comfortably and aesthetically than most people think.” “Unlike the traditional non-programmable instruments, we now have a wide variety of performance options, giving us greater flexibility and the ability to obtain a higher degree of precision,” said Reza. “Using automatically adjusting ‘situation’ settings or ‘memories,’ we can fine-tune the instruments according to your specific needs and preferences.” Unique to Western Canada, Acoustica Hearing sells hearing aids that are made on site, resulting in dramatically shorter delivery times than their competitors. In fact, it can take as little as two days for custom-made hearing aids and mere hours for a behind the ear device. “Everything is handled right here,” added John. “Not only do we test hearing, fit the devices and offer repair services, we actually make and assemble the hearing aids ourselves. Other firms have to send everything away, but we do it all right here. That means we can pass the savings of lower manufacturing costs on to our customers and help them get on with enjoying their lives sooner.” With locations in West Vancouver, Burnaby and White Rock, Acoustica Hearing’s licensed hearing specialists offer free testing and expert fitting on a wide selection of analog, programmable and digital models including: In the Ear (ITE), Behind the Ear (BTE), rechargeable, invisible (only you will know it’s there!), waterproof and custom-made hearing aids. In addition, the company is proud to offer “while-you-wait” repair service. “Hearing obstacles are no less challenging than vision impairments,” said Reza. “Like the right pair of glasses, when you don’t have the proper device, it impacts how you function on a daily basis. In most cases, our on-premise technicians can have you in and out in a matter of minutes.”

Zig Zag If there’s one thing stylish women on the Peninsula love, it’s being able to find the hottest fashions and accessories right in their own backyard. At Zig Zag Fashion Boutique in Peninsula Village, you’ll find the most diverse selection of trendy clothes, footwear and accessories, without having to leave White Rock/South Surrey. The appeal of Zig Zag – a favourite among shoppers Kerry on the Peninsula for close to 16 years – extends beyond the great selection of highly sought-after brands and hard-to-find fashions. The knowledgeable and friendly staff love nothing more than helping customers find the look that suits them perfectly, and will go out of their way to make sure you’re looking better than ever in your new purchase. The store’s wide scope of brand name merchandise is another aspect that makes it one of the best places to shop in town. With denim brands including Not Your Daughter’s Jeans and Esprit, and shoe brands including Calvin Klein, Michael Kors, Nine West, Fly London, and even MBT and Blundstone – plus exciting new boot arrivals from Pikolino and Frye, it’s no surprise residents are ditching plans to cross the border or head downtown and instead are staying home to satisfy their fashion needs. And the loyalty between Zig Zag staff and customers goes both ways. The store offers a unique discount program that rewards customers with points on every purchase of regular-priced merchandise. When a customer reaches 500 points, they receive a $50 gift card to spend in the store. If it’s your birthday, make sure you take time to visit Zig Zag, as the store offers a 25 per cent discount to help you celebrate your big day. As summer begins to wind down, the staff at Zig Zag are looking forward to a stylish fall season with plenty of new looks to get excited about. Expect to see wind legged-pants back in style this fall – a look that will go well with some of the Simon Chang long, fur vests Zig Zag will be carrying. New in store will be pieces from Chalet – both casual separates and dresses. Look for a resurgence in animal prints as well, with dark purple, green, burgundy and navy blue as the go-to colours for fall. Wristlet purses from KGB Studios are a unique new accessory to look out for this year, as well as cross-body purses and bags by Trend. Whatever style or trend you seek, the friendly staff at Zig Zag Fashion Boutique will help you find the perfect look so you’ll leave their store feeling your best.

55~55 Marine Drive TIM LAWSON is a Canadian singer-songwriter who has toured internationally with his seven-piece band. His music and vocal harmonies reﬂect a natural passion for life. He is quick to point out that the greatest gift from his music career has been the chance meeting with “a very special gal who somehow agreed to be my wife”.

Tim Lawson KAROLA LAWSON originally hails from Berlin, Germany, and brings a warm infusion of European taste and experience to their seaside shop. Tim also rapidly admits their humble establishment (and his life) would be nothing without her. THE STORE is an eclectic mixture – an amazing assortment of items, from interesting to dazzling. Tim and Karola like to direct browsers’ attention to their sign: “Please feast your eyes – we’re lucky enough to host the largest selection of seashells in Canada…and there is never any pressure to buy(!)” With a variety of ocean-inspired décor and home accessories, opportunities abound for creative thoughts and impressions. Award-winning photography by John Gordon and Joci Sirak graces the walls of 55~55, along with some stunning pieces of NHL and Celebrity Memorabilia, and highly unusual wall clocks (which gives Tim the chance to quote Benjamin Franklin: “Do not squander time, for that is the stuff life is made of.”) Visual treasures adorn the shelves. One-of-a-kind masterpieces of handblown Art Glass from the world-famous studios of BC’s own Robert Held and Robert Parkes are on display (and at studio pricing). Literature occupies an important spot in the Marine Drive shop’s line-up, beginning with 5 titles published by their company Timberholme Books (including The True Intrepid, the story of Sir William Stephenson, the spymaster who served as the model for Ian Fleming’s James Bond character: “Men should not make war on other men, but instead on poverty, disease, and ignorance.”) Last but not least, 55~55 hosts the complete collection of Tim Lawson Band CDs, accompanied by such select artists as The Beatles, Chris Rea, Shawn Phillips and The Eagles. Tim and Karola invite you to visit and enjoy the atmosphere of the beach and their store. Not just a store - but much, much more. A warm welcome awaits!

Hodson Denture Clinic Offering full-service denture services, including repairs, relines, precision dentures and denture implants, Peter Hodson and his caring staff have been helping people get the smiles they deserve—along with the function they need—for more than 20 years. “We are dedicated to providing the best Peter Hodson denture services available and helping our clients feel comfortable and confident,” said owner and registered denturist Peter Hodson. “We treat everyone with kindness and respect and always go the extra mile to ensure our clients feel 100 per cent satisfied with their new denture.” In fact, Peter says any problem people are facing with their dentures can be improved or eliminated so long as they are fitted properly, with the right solution. “Good fitting and looking dentures are highly personalized,” said Peter. “We take precision measurements of the jaw and face and then handcraft dentures to match age, complexion and facial features. We can also offer soft liners for people with chronically sore gum tissues, as well as ‘immediate’ dentures, which can be designed to duplicate the patient’s original teeth, if they so wish.” New patients to Peter Hodson Dental Clinic do not require a referral. In addition to complete and partial dentures, services include repairs and relines, affordable denture implant solutions, an on-site denture lab and ongoing care, maintenance and check-ups. If restoration, extraction or implants are part of the treatment plan, Peter can provide a referral to the appropriate practitioner. “It is very rewarding to be able to help people feel good about themselves and to prove to them that there is no such thing as ‘forbidden food’ when it comes to today’s dentures. People are often surprised by that, but dentures have come a long way over the past decade. There is no need for people to have to worry about uncomfortable fitting dentures or potential embarrassments.” For a free, no-obligation consultation and the best service available, call Peter Hodson Denture Clinic today at 604-536-9555.

Hillcrest Decorating Along with the excitement of giving your home a design makeover comes the stress, frustration and confusion of selecting that perfect paint colour to give your home that perfect look. Luckily, help is close at hand. Colour experts Kim and Julie – of Peninsula Designers Julie and Kim Paint and Design and Hillcrest Decorating – have all the tools at their fingertips, plus the expertise, to turn your decorating dreams into a reality. Armed with paint chips, wallpaper books and stylish window coverings combined with their expert eye, Kim and Julie can transform any room in your house to something out of your favorite decor magazine. According to Kim, a home consultation will include an analysis of everything from the room’s furniture to lighting, as well as a homeowner’s personality and colour likes and dislikes. Taking into consideration any sort of additional renovation that may be taking place – such as new flooring or cabinetry – the colour consultants will provide some suggestions that will suit the homeowners taste and bring a tasteful, cohesive flow to their home. “Sometimes people get sort of hung up on having the same colour scheme throughout their home,” Kim explains. “So it really helps having a different eye to take a look at their house, while still envisioning living there.” Kim notes their expertise goes beyond simply suggesting paint colours, too – she and Julie will often provide suggestions for other decor upgrades, often that don’t occur to the home owner, including window treatments including Hunter Douglas blinds, which Peninsula Paint and Design and Hillcrest Decorating carry. The consultants love to see clients thrilled with the final product in their homes, and although they’re spending a little more money to have an expert consultation, in the long run they’re saving plenty of time and wasted money that can come with the indecision of not knowing what direction to take. “It is definitely worth the money, other wise they’re in the store constantly driving themselves crazy,” Kim says. So before you dive in to your next home redecoration project, visit Hillcrest Decorating or Peninsula Paint in Design for some professional advice that will save you time, money and stress, with results you’ll love for years to come.

Hello, I’m Gary Donohoe

“

Safe Bathing Centre

OWNER AND PRESIDENT OF THE SAFE BATHING CENTRE”

At any age, it is essential to have the peace of mind that comes with keeping ourselves safe from harm in our own home. However, as we age and our mobility becomes a concern, certain areas of the home – including the bathtub – can become a safety hazard, and the subject of worry for many. The experienced staff at Safe Bathing Centre in White Rock will assess your needs and provide you with the best Gary Donohoe quality equipment, professionally installed at an affordable price, guaranteed. A family-run business with more than 30 years of experience in construction and home renovation, Safe Bathing Centre specializes in accessible bathroom remodeling for private homes as well as professional facilities. The company is a direct importer/wholesaler of products, with Western Canada’s widest selection of walk-in bathtubs – 36 different models, to be exact – plus more than 100 barrierfree showers. The staff at Safe Bathing Centre has done many years of research on the various manufacturers in order to ensure their customers are fully informed prior to making any purchase decisions. “Our selection is excellent, and we believe that one size shoe does not fit all,” says owner Gary Donohoe. “Our customers come in many shapes and sizes and so do their bathrooms, so it’s important that when one is making the decision to purchase, that they have a variety of barrier-free products to choose from that will meet or exceed their unique requirements.” With a focus on a consultative approach, staff members at Safe Bathing Centre – who are all Certified Aging in Place Specialists – take the time to find solutions that work for their clients, as opposed to applying high-pressure sales tactics. As longstanding members of the community, Safe Bathing Centre provides great workmanship at an economical price, as well as a beautiful showroom at 152 and North Bluff Road, where potential clients can see for themselves the high quality of products offered. And with many of Safe Bathing Centre’s customers living nearby, the company is able to get first-hand feedback, which makes their job truly rewarding. “In some cases, it has changed our customers’ lives completely for the better – this is why our job is truly rewarding, because we have the opportunity to provide a service that brings happiness.” Clients can also rest assured that they’re in good hands with Safe Bathing Centre – all their manufacturers have been in business more than 20 years and installations are backed by a comprehensive after-sales warranty. They are also members of the Greater Vancouver Home Builders Association ‘Reno-Mark’ program and are members of the Better Business Bureau. To find out how you can take the first step towards a safer home, call Safe Bathing Centre today at 604-536-2261.

There are many Professionals, such as Designers, Therapists, Seniors Organizations, Care Administrators and National Building Association Regulators, all working for years on a Universal Design concept known as“Aging in Place.” The term means following a home design for people of all ages and abilities – really it’s all about “Don’t Fall! Don’t Fall! Don’t Fall! AGING IN PLACE HOME SAFETY TIPS: TIP #1 Install Safety Grab Bars. This will provide the greatest safety value for the money spent. One in three seniors are likely to take a fall. The bathroom can become one of the most hazardous rooms in the house. Bare feet - soap - and water! When climbing over or into anything, be sure to have a good hold of a Safety Grab Bar. TIP #2 No slip (rubber backed) mats. A majority of the mats we see during bathroom remodels have lost most of their non-slip from extensive use and washing. Replace them often. TIP #3 Remove tripping hazards. Keep the ﬂoor clear of obstacles and clutter. TIP #4 Use good quality towel and toilet paper holders that are able to support your weight when used for support. These are available. TIP #5 Lighting and ventilation. Maintain above average brilliant lighting and be sure that the ventilation fan is still operating well. If you are thinking about making changes within your Bathroom, call us. Our strict professional code of conduct will ensure you’ll get a very fair and honest estimate.

You have my word on it!

Armadio Kitchen & Bath Ltd. Kitchens are often the focal point of a home, where families gather to share stories about their day and friends can relax to socialize and enjoy food and drinks. So when it comes time to give your L-R: Danny, Tanis, Lloyd, Kelly, Phil, kitchen a facelift, having the expertise Diane, Dave, Joy, Rob of trained, experienced specialists is essential in creating the dream kitchen you will love for years to come. The team at Armadio Kitchen & Bath has more than 50 years of experience in the cabinetry design industry, as well as diverse backgrounds in interior design, architecture, construction and cabinet manufacturing. Whether you’re looking for a more simple, cost-effective way to update and modernize your kitchen, or you want to completely transform your existing space into something new, Armadio can walk you through the process step-by-step, ensuring you’re more than happy with the final result. While a ‘quick and easy’ way to freshen up your kitchen would be new countertops and hardware, Armadio owner Phil Cervi recommends clients take a good look at the existing cabinetry and the type of materials to be used before deciding, to avoid having to re-do any upgrades down the road. “When using expensive materials like granite or silestone, it is better to do a full-on, complete replacement of the cabinets to compliment the quality of materials used, so as to not waste time and money later when it HAS to be done,” Phil says. New cabinetry in a kitchen or bathroom can still be a cost-efficient way to transform your home, by keeping the same ‘footprint’ as opposed to a complete redesign, which can become a more time-consuming project. “Replacing cabinetry using the same layout can make the space look completely different and fresh,” Phil says. When it comes to popular designs and layouts for kitchens, Phil notes ‘open-living concepts’ are very popular, especially when it comes to entertaining. Creating an eating bar, peninsula or island in the kitchen can really help open the area up to socializing and family life. Regardless of the size or scope of the job, the team at Armadio strongly recommends the use of a trusted, experienced contractor. It’s also a good idea to get advice and ideas ahead of time, by visiting show homes and open houses and checking out design magazines to get an idea of what you want. Because interior decorators can play a huge part in the final product, Armadio has a list of trusted referrals of decorators and contractors. Kitchens and bathrooms are extremely valuable components of your home, the largest and most important investment of your life – don’t leave the value of these investments in the hands of those who aren’t capable. Call Armadio Kitchen & Bath, where experience, professionalism and dedication to each project will help you design your dreams.

The cool way to permanently lose fat for him & her New Beauty Institute offers CoolSculpting by ZELTIQ.

Though our beach season may have had a slow start here on the Semiahmoo Peninsula, there’s no better time than now to take steps to look and feel your best for the rest of the summer and for months to come. With cutting-edge technology and dedicated, knowledgeable staff, New Beauty Institute can help you reach your goals in all aspects of body and skin care. For many of us, no matter how hard we work on our body’s ‘trouble spots’ – muffin tops, love handles – we just Caree Ludwar can’t seem to shake that stubborn fat. Here’s the skinny: developed by Harvard scientists, our unique, patented, clinically proven procedure involves freezing fat cells without damage to your skin. There’s no knife. No suction hoses. No needles. No lasers, even. After your treatment, you get on with your busy day. No downtime. According to New Beauty’s owner Caree Ludwar, the solution to tackling those annoying bulges is right here in our own backyard. Caree described the results as “phenomenal” – “The results have exceeded our expectations,” Caree says. Since New Beauty first acquired the technology in January of this year, the master certified staff has performed more treatments than anyone else in Canada; achieving their Double Diamond Certification in the procedure. “This treatment will blow your mind.” Although very popular with New Beauty’s female patients, Caree says they have also had great success using CoolSculpting to treat Gynecomastia – the enlargement of the gland tissue in the male breast. “Liposuction was the only solution to this condition before CoolSculpting became available,” Caree says, noting that Gynecomastia is not the same as pseudogynecomatia, which is the presence of fat deposits in the breast area of obese men. “With CoolSculping there is no downtime, no scar and no one but you needs to know you’ve had a treatment. It’s the only non-invasive way to help reduce the fat in this area.” For those who’d like to learn more about CoolSculpting, Caree and the staff at New Beauty are hosting an open house, aptly named “Cool Night Out,” on Sept. 29 from 5:30 - 8 p.m., featuring manufacturers of the technology, demonstrations, a question-and-answer period and a draw for a complimentary visit to the clinic. And for a daily exfoliating treatment that Caree recommends for everyone from teenagers to grandmothers, there is nothing better than the Clairisonic Pro. “This daily treatment will truly make a difference for your skin,” Caree says, noting that New Beauty Institute offers the Clarisonic Pro with a 60-day money back guarantee and a three-year warranty. “We’re also offering one month of free Proellixe with the purchase of the Clarisonic Pro before Oct. 1.” For more information on any of the treatments offered at New Beauty Institute, call 604541-8750 or visit www.new-beauty.ca

Call us for the NEW non-invasive way to freeze fat. “It’s not just that other people noticed the results as an individual, it inspired me.”

CoolSculpting is a new, non-invasive procedure for men & women that uses a revolutionary cooling technology to reduce areas of unwanted fat gently and effectively.

Spectrum Optometry When it comes to taking care of your health and that of your family, having experienced, knowledgeable and caring health practitioners is of the utmost importance. The health of your eyes is no exception – which is why Spectrum Optometry strives to provide the best in care on a full range of services to ensure optimum eye health for your whole family. Dr. Stephanie Gautier Customer service is the number one goal at Spectrum Optometry. Whether it’s a full eye health Dr. Michelle Elliott examination – including testing for standard ocular diseases like glaucoma, cataracts and diabetes – to contact lens fitting and eyeglass dispensing, the friendly and knowledgeable team at Spectrum Optometry can take care of it all. Patients can rest assured when visiting Spectrum Optometry that they’re in good hands. Dr. Michelle Elliott is an award-winning researcher and University of Waterloo graduate with a Bachelor of Science degree in Biochemistry, as well as a Doctor of Optometry degree. Dr. Stephanie Gautier – who joined the Spectrum team two years ago – obtained her Bachelor of Science in Microbiology and Immunology at the University of British Columbia, and her Doctor of Optometry at the University of Waterloo, and, like Dr. Elliot, has earned numerous awards for her work and studies. Both doctors believe strongly in giving back and have taken part in eye care missions to help improve the eye health of those less fortunate. Another thing the doctors can both agree on is the importance of regular eye examinations in order to maintain not only your eye heath, but overall health as well. With September just around the corner, there’s no better time than now for kids of all ages to have their eyes checked before the new school year begins. The Canadian Association of Optometrists reports that 25 per cent of grade school children have vision problems that stop them from being as successful as they could be. Also, 60 per cent of children identified as slow learners, or learning disabled, have vision problems they aren’t aware of. A full eye health examination at Spectrum Optometry can identify and treat vision problems, allowing your child a better chance to perform to his or her fullest potential as a student. Call Spectrum Optometry at 604-536-2050 or visit www.spectrumoptometry. com to find out more – new patients are always welcome.

Peninsula Runners

Thursday, August 18, 2011 Peace Arch News

Fall Running Clinics start in September Details online at wwwpeninsularunners.ca

Peninsula Runners continues to be your centre for health and fitness on the Peninsula. Whether you are looking for high-quality running shoes or simply trying to get back into shape, Peninsula Runners is always there for you. Product knowledge and customer service is the focus of the local specialty running store. The staff are runners, but they don’t limit their focus only Lorne, Lisa and Tim to running. They also cater to walkers and crossathletes, as well. “It’s not as simple as picking a shoe off the wall,” said Lisa Farrow, store manager “We fit shoes not just according to the size of your foot, but also your biomechanics, foot shape and activity.” The features and technology of shoes are always changing and Peninsula Runners is continually up to date on the latest and greatest in athletic footwear. Recently, Saucony launched their minimal series - a set of shoes designed to transition you from the typical running shoe to the minimal form of running shoes. This works nicely with your current running shoe, as an aid, which is designed to help strengthen your foot. Footwear; clothing (athletic, yoga and casual); running accessories; sports medicine products; monitors that track heart rate, speed and distance; as well as plenty of nutrition options - Peninsula Runners provides it all, allowing for a less stressful, more enjoyable run. In addition to providing exceptional product knowledge and customer service, Peninsula Runners also hosts walking, learn-to-run, “run easy” and “run faster” clinics three times a year (geared towards 5km and 10km walk-run experience). As well, its renowned half-marathon and marathon clinics are held regularly. Whether it’s your first ever half or full marathon or you want to train for a famous race, it’s the perfect environment. All of the clinics are informative, motivating and, most importantly, fun! For a ton of excitement, on October 23rd, join Peninsula Runners for the 5th running of the Peace Arch Hospital Foundation’s Great Pumpkin Walk-Run 5km and 1km. This event supports the local hospital’s priority projects. In addition to this annual event and many local runs and sports teams, Peninsula Runners also supports the South Surrey Track through the Fraser Valley Trail Run Series. Come down and see them soon! They would love to help you reach your goals.
