◗ THE CHANGING CITY

Trimming down the river towers

BY THERESA MCMANUS REPORTER tmcmanus@royalcityrecord.com

The City of New Westminster is proposing a “bold” new vision for a prime piece of real estate on the waterfront.

In response to recent and future changes to New Westminster’s waterfront, the city is proposing a new vision for the Larco site. The site is currently a parking lot between Westminster Pier Park and River Market.

An application approved by city council in 2005 allows Larco Investments Ltd. to build 911 residential units in five highrise towers on the site. On Monday, city council directed staff to consult with Larco on the city’s desire to amend the zoning and special development permit for 660 Front St., to conduct community consultation to discuss the implementation of the downtown waterfront vision and to prepare a new zoning amendment bylaw for the site for council’s consideration at a future meeting.

Coun. Bill Harper said it’s a “bold move” by council.

“It’s a logical next step,” he said. “I am really hoping Larco will be sympathetic to this and consider redevelopment.”

The staff report stated TransLink’s decision not to proceed with construc-

Currently home to a parking lot, it’s zoned to allow 911 residential units in five highrises on the site. tion of North Fraser Perimeter Road provided council with a new vision for the Front Street corridor and the Front Street Parkade, which includes opening Front Street to sunlight and enhancing views of the Fraser River.

“As the city implements the downtown community plan, Front Street will be returned to a pedestrian friendly retail street with historic storefronts. Seamless

connectivity to the waterfront will be achieved by an elevated Sixth Street overpass, allowing for barrier-free movements to the waterfront and the Westminster Pier Park for pedestrians and cyclists,” stated a vision statement adopted by council in 2011. “Over time, the Front Street Parkade will be replaced with new public parking decentralized throughout the downtown.

The rail corridor will be cleared up and

train whistles will be eliminated. When the Pattullo Bridge is reconstructed, direct access will not be permitted to Front Street.

In addition, the city will seek to prohibit it or restrict commercial truck traffic from Front Street.”

Mayor Wayne Wright said the proposal is not only bold and visionary but it’s also practical for Larco. He said the company

Parent pleads with district to keep SEAs

BY NIKI HOPE REPORTER

nhope@royalcityrecord.com

Christy Clark’s Liberal government isn’t providing enough funding for special education – that was the theme at Tuesday night’s board of education meeting, where trustees heard from concerned union members and parents on how laying off 27 special education assistants will impact the district’s most vulnerable students.

Local support staff union members told

the board that job cuts will impact learning, but it was Lord Tweedsmuir Elementary parent Katrine Ireland who provided a first-hand account of how cutting classroom support will affect her special-needs son.

“Next year, he has no counsellor and he has no resource teacher – that we know of,” she said. “He needs his services. He’s going into Grade 7. He’s had a relationship with a counsellor at the school for a few years now, and the counsellor is now gone.

“That’s the reason why I get so emotional, because it’s working now for my kid at school, finally. For his last year of Grade 7, could we please just keep it working?” she pleaded.

Ireland’s son is gifted and has a learning disorder. He is high-functioning, which she fears means he would get less support than a student with greater needs.

“Which frankly, as a human being, I would agree with that,” she said about providing extra support to students who

Trustee MaryAnn Mortensen, also a Tweedsmuir parent, told Ireland the district is working on a solution for her situation but couldn’t discuss it at the board meeting.

“There is something that will be coming to you around your son’s specific needs.

You will receive information and followup,” Mortensen told her.

Picture perfect Herbert Spencer boy’s placement in class photo triggers an avalanche of support worldwide and a brand new photo

BY NIKI HOPE REPORTER

nhope@royalcityrecord.com

It’s all smiles now that a new, inclusive photo of seven-yearold Miles Ambridge has been taken.

Anne Belanger was finally able to show her son his Grade 2 class photo, where he sits amongst his classmates at New Westminster’s Herbert Spencer Elementary.

“He said, ‘Oh Mommy, this is so nice,’” Belanger says, describing Miles’ reaction to the new picture.

He never saw the old school photo, where Miles was set apart from his classmates in his wheelchair. The picture devastated his parents, and their story garnered attention after it ran on the front page of The Province. Media outlets around the globe, including the Toronto Star, Washington Post and the United Kingdom’s Daily Mail, later covered the story. The original photo went viral with more than 4.2 million views on The Province’s website, the paper reported Wednesday.

“All we wanted was a retake and an apology, and people just ran with it beyond anything we could (have) imagined,” says Belanger, who was shocked by the reaction to the “heart-breaking” photo.

When she saw the new class photo, Belanger smiled.

“I was really, really happy, and that was that,” she says.

Miles has spinal muscular atrophy, a genetic disease that attacks nerve cells in the spinal cord, causing muscles throughout the body, especially in the arms and legs, to weaken. The disease does not affect cognitive abilities.

Miles’ parents and the school principal contacted Lifetouch Canada, which at first didn’t see a problem with the photo, according to the The Province. The company later agreed to reshoot the photo. In the new photo, a beaming Miles is out of his wheelchair and supported by a caregiver on a bench with his classmates.

Photo finish: Above, Miles Ambridge, a Grade 2 student at Herbert Spencer Elementary in New Westminster, sits with his classmates in a re-shot school photo – a departure from the previous image (at left), which garnered national media attention because Miles was set apart.

Spitale: Wants to find a win-win scenario on development ◗ continued from page 1

owned the property for many years but hasn’t been able to build up until this time.

“The city has changed,” he said about the need for a new plan for the site.

According to Wright, Larco stands to benefit from some of the positive changes taking place in the area around its property.

“We are in constant touch with them,” he said. “They know how important that piece is.”

Lisa Spitale, the city’s chief administrative officer, said the city needs to have a conversation with Larco about community values, given that North Fraser Perimeter Road is off the table and the adjacent site is now a park instead of the formerly planned high-density residential development.

“We still want development along that waterfront. The downtown is a growth concentration area, and we still want to see residential development along the waterfront because it actually services all the

things we have been talking about – the relationship to the River Market, certain levels of densification for the downtown,” she said. “The issue then is, good planning principles say you need to work with what is happening around you.”

Staff will report back to council when they have a sense of Larco’s interest in the proposal.

“What I want to say to them is, ‘we still want you to build, but we want you to build in a more sympathetic way, and we don’t see the existing level of density as something that is sympathetic, so let’s talk about what still works for your development and is sympathetic for ours’,” she said. “I really do want to find a win-win for them and a win-win for the city.”

Coun. Jaimie McEvoy said the image of five towers on the waterfront no longer fits in with the goal of creating a livable downtown.

“This is a huge step,” he said.

Staff created a set of principles that will be brought forward for discussion with Larco and the community, as part

of the city’s proposal to work with Larco on a new plan for the site. The principles include supporting an esplanade and multifamily residential as an appropriate land use at the site, with two tall, slender residential towers that are sited to maximize open and green space on the site being one proposal that could be supported.

The principles state that Larco has a number of development obligations under the existing development agreement, so these would need to be re-evaluated and amended if a new zone and special development permit were devised.

In March 2005, council voted 4-2 in favour of allowing Larco Investments Ltd. to proceed with a residential project that would feature five towers ranging from 25 to 30 storeys. As part of the plan approved by council, the developer would provide amenities such as pedestrian overpasses at McKenzie and Begbie streets, 50 per cent of the costs of a vehicle and pedestrian overpass at Sixth Street, a landscaped esplanade on Larco’s property and the water lot located over the Fraser River and

148 public parking stalls.

Spitale said the Larco’s obligations were based on the plan for a certain level of density along the waterfront. She said the requirements being sought from the city, as well as the creation of a park on the Westminster Pier site that was slated for several highrises, could change the requirements and make the project feasible and economical for Larco.

In 2005, some councillors were considering a proposal to downzone the property or reduce the scale of the proposal, but some were concerned about potential legal ramifications.

“What is our responsibility? What can we do?” Wright asked The Record Thursday.

“We are not going to overstep our boundaries. There is a lot of dialogue.”

Spitale said the city plans to meet with Larco representatives in the next few weeks to discuss the site. She couldn’t say whether the city would take action to prepare new zoning for the site if it was unable to get support from Larco on a plan for the site

Two-week spring break could lead to longer days in school

BY NIKI HOPE REPORTER

nhope@royalcityrecord.com

Elementary schools in New Westminster could see their hours extended by minutes a day now that the district is going to a twoweek spring break next year.

The district was planning to take away students’ break time to compensate for the extra week off, but the board passed a motion from trustee MaryAnn Mortensen calling for those minutes to be found at the beginning or end of the school day instead.

“Given that students are in the care of the New Westminster school district for the better part of the day, we have a moral and ethical obligation to ensure that they are provided adequate time to eat, socialize and to partake in physical activities, this includes recess and lunch periods,” Mortensen said in her rationale for the change.

The board wasn’t willing to support her call for having all schools – just elementary schools, for now – apply the additional minutes at the beginning or the end of the day because of the different school schedules.

The district has to add eight instructional minutes every day to make up for

hours lost as a result of extending spring break by a week.

Parents and staff will be consulted on the schedule change, said Mortensen.

Her recommendation was one of three motions from Voice New Westminster trustees, which did not appear on the board’s open agenda package for Tuesday. Instead, it was in the closed meeting – a move that bothered Mortensen and fellow Voice trustee Casey Cook, whose two motions also didn’t appear on the agenda.

However, all three motions were ultimately discussed at Tuesday’s public meeting.

Mortensen couldn’t say why the change was made because it was determined in a closed session.

Cook’s motion – that all trustee and senior staff expenses are to be listed on the district’s website immediately following monthly reporting periods – passed.

A second motion calling for the district to separate out financial statements for the business company, which oversees a school in China, from the district’s budget was sent to staff for review and comment, Cook said.

OUR VIEW

And then, on top of that, one of the first things she does is hike her own staff’s wages to exceed what President Obama pays for his own right-hand man in the White House. To say that this all didn’t sit well with B.C. taxpayers is a bit of an understatement.

But what is equally ironic is that Clark’s main criticism of Adrian Dix during the election campaign was that he “flip flopped” on everything. Seriously?

You just can’t make this stuff up.

We hope that this first misjudgment

by the new premier is a one-off due to a lack of sleep as she juggled appointing her new cabinet, hiring staffers and kick-starting her own election campaign in Kelowna. To be sure, she’s got a lot on her plate.

But, Clark needs to walk the talk and lead by example. There are kids in school districts, such as New Westminster, who will have to do without – at least partially – because of a lack of provincial funding and now is certainly not the time to be throwing taxpayers’ money at your staff.

IN MY OPINION

Consult public about water taxi Dear Editor:

Re: Bring on the water tax, Letters to the editor, The Record, June 12.

Given the enthusiastic support that Tom Littlewood indicated the mayor, city council and most of the engineers and managers at city hall supported his water taxi connection between Port Royal and the River Market area, I was surprised yesterday that Quayside to Queensborough pedestrian/cyclist crossing options, tabled at city council, didn’t include evaluation of his superior option.

We find his option superior as: 1. It provides more direct connectivity to Port Royal residents to the business/transportation and civic amenities the city is trying to support and promote.

2. With the exception of an appropriate landing

near the Discovery Center/River Market area, existing infrastructure, including Mr. Littlewood’s two water taxis, are in place.

3. The required dock landing could easily be accommodated within the plans for the dock repairs contemplated by the $4-million tranche of DAC funding designated for such purpose. (Recall here that the new city manager has previously indicated these projects are not subject to change under the DAC funding agreement.)

4. Private investment in this project has the support of Aragon Development, many local businesses and a host of citizens on the Queensborough side of the proposed water taxi.

5. One can easily see businesses like the River Market, hotel and restaurants and other businesses at the Quayside Landing area and downtown would likely also prefer this shorter, less costly and ◗Taxi Page 7

more direct connective solution.

6. The water taxi option, so enthusiastically embraced by tourists at Granville Island, would also be an attraction here in New Westminster, allowing a greater draw to the area and its other amenities such as the Anvil Centre, Landmark Cinemas and the Discovery Centre.

7. The water taxi option is also a far better all weather transportation connection to SkyTrain, being shorter, more direct and sheltered.

For all of the above reasons it is clear that during the public consultation process, this exciting option should be resurrected, evaluated and tested in a collaboration with a “3P2Q” focus – public/private partnership of both Queensborough and Quayside interests.

In taking this suggestion, the city would not only be minding its P’s and Q’s, but also ensuring the best logistical solution evaluation to minimize costs to tax-payers, optimize the use of available DAC funding and incorporate maximum synergies for downtown businesses and civic amenities.

Let’s all work together with a robust set of options.

New owners within rights

Dear Editor:

Re: Hopes for heritage demolished, The Record, June 14.

Not everyone was surprised that the sale of 221 Third Ave. resulted in the demolition of the house and planned construction of two new homes. The previous owners of 221 Third Ave. initially purchased a property that consisted of three separate lots. Twenty years ago, one of those lots was sold and a new home built by one of the authors of this letter.

The recent listing of the property was priced at a level that negated the option of keeping the house. Even the real estate sales video highlighted the fact that this listing was two legal and separate lots. It might have been a different story if the house had not straddled the two lots.

As mentioned in your article, if the home had been less central on the property, a prospective owner may have considered updating the old house and building a new one beside it.

We welcome our new neighbour and respect his right to build a home that suits his and his family’s needs, within the zoning regulations set out by the city.

Too much greed at city hall

Dear Editor:

Re: Who gets big bucks, The Record, June 12.

In regard to your recent article, all I can say is disgusting, disgusting, disgusting!

For a city with a seven square mile radius. Why we need to employ 70 people making more than $100,000 a year is beyond logical fiscal thinking.

We can’t even get a new high school built! Well, I wonder why? How disgusting! What blows me away is that 24 of them work for the fire department. How many fires do we need to put out in our small city?

After hearing about the Liberals giving themselves huge pay raises during such challenging times, this just frosts the cake.

I am so done with paying such high taxes for such a small city with a greedy city hall. Time to catch the next bus out.

Stockpiling coal a bad idea Dear Editor:

Re: Mayor votes with anti-coal metro directors, The Record, June 19.

At the May 13 New Westminster town hall meeting regarding the proposed transferring of coal at Fraser Surrey Docks , Mr. Jeff Scott, president and CEO of Fraser Surrey Docks, spoke at length trying to assure the audience that in spite of the company’s own website stating, “the facility will provide for a short-term stockpile of up to 30,000-metric tonnes (two trains) in case of a supply chain delay,” there will be no stockpiling of coal at the docks.

Now Mr. Scott is saying that though there will be provisions made at the site to stockpile coal if necessary, he is “very confident” coal stockpiling will not be required.

I do not believe that Fraser Surrey Docks would address the issue of stockpiling coal unless it anticipates a forseeable need for stockpiling. Given the problems which assuredly will occur in a supply chain operation of this magnitude, I am “very confident” that stockpiling of coal will be necessary at Fraser Surrey Docks A pile of 30,000-metric tonnes of coal sitting on the Fraser Surrey Dock , exposed to the wind and rain for an undetermined length of time, will assuredly produce coal dust and toxic runoff. This is a situation that is unacceptable to me. I do not want this blight across the river from my home.

Janzen: ‘...the public has to rise up’ ◗ continued from page 1

But while there may be a solution for Ireland, she later questioned how students whose family can’t or don’t advocate for their children will be helped.

District parent advisory council pastchair Wendy Harris, whose son has special needs, told the board her son needs fulltime support at school, but he is attending mainstream science and drama classes.

She feared the district would segregate or cluster special-needs students, but trustees assured her there was no plan to do that.

She urged the board to support a return to targeted funding, which means the district must spend the amount of funds allocated per student. Currently, school districts are provided a certain amount per student, which is given in a lump sum to spend on supports for special needs students.

“All districts spend more than what they get on special education,” said Janet Grant, the district’s director of instruction for student services.

The district received just over $5 million for categories that garner supplemental funding (over and above the base operat-

ing), but spent more than $8 million for the 2012/13 school year.

Trustee Lisa Graham prefers the targeted model and wants the board to lobby the government to return to targeted funding.

However, the board didn’t support the motion she put forward Tuesday. Instead, trustees voted to ask the government to increase funding for special needs and resource learning assistants to reflect “actual and needed support costs.”

Graham was upset her target-funding motion was shot down.

“I can see where this is going,” said Graham, whose son has autism. “I have no personal benefit. My child is done. … I know of what I speak. I’ve lived it. I can’t believe, on principle, you won’t support targeted (funding).”

Responding to the union’s call that trustees advocate for more funding from the province, trustee James Janzen said parents would have a better chance of being heard.

“Parents are the ones who can make this government change,” Janzen said. “The most effective lobbying will come from parents. It’s the public that has to rise up.”

Police looking for vandals Mercer Stadium field hit with spray paint last week

BY CAYLEY DOBIE REPORTER cdobie@royalcityrecord.com

Vandals had a field day overnight on June 14, spray-painting several buildings as well as the field at New Westminster’s Mercer Stadium.

According to a media release, a New Westminster police officer spotted the vandals’ work during a routine patrol at about 12:10 a.m. last Friday.

Upon further inspection, the officer discovered buildings along with the field had

been painted.

“Police investigators located and seized several paint and spray cans, which they believe were used in the incident,” stated the release.

There were two paint cans, one a Behr Plus Ultra White and the other a Premier Satine Finish, and a spray can that appears to be a yellowish colour.

According to the city engineering department, the cost to clean up the field was under $1,000 and took about four hours.

Anyone with information about this incident is asked to contact Const. Nick Ferguson at 604-525-5411 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

‘THERE IS A LOT OF TALENT WITHIN THE BLIND COMMUNITY’ – SHAWN MARSOLAIS

Blind talent show with a lot to prove

BY THERESA MCMANUS REPORTER tmcmanus@royalcityrecord.com

Visually challenged contestants will show their talents – and possibly clear up some misconceptions about the abilities of being blind – when they compete in the Blind Beginnings Has Talent fundraiser this weekend.

About 16 entertainers will take to the stage at the Sapperton Pensioner Hall on Saturday night to compete for prizes in the talent show.

“I have been wanting to do a talent show fundraiser,” said Shawn Marsolais, manager of programs and services for Blind Beginnings.

Shawn Marsolais “There is a lot Organizer of talent within the blind community.”

Marsolais worked with youth leaders involved in Blind Beginnings to plan the show that takes place on Saturday, June 22 at 7 p.m. at the Sapperton Pensioners Hall at 318 Keary St. The show features entertainment by blind artists from around the Lower Mainland aged 11 to early 60s.

“It’s a bit of an ambitious task,” said Marsolais, noting the group only started planning the show about six weeks ago. “I hope people will come out. I think it will be a really awesome event.”

One contestant will perform a hula dance, while the remainder will sing and play a variety of instruments including the guitar, piano and flute.

“It should be a very musical event,” said Marsolais.

The judge panel is made up of two blind adjudicators and one sighted person, in order to evaluate the dancing component of the entertainment.

“I think a lot of sighted people aren’t thinking about talent when they think about blindness,” Marsolais said. “I really want to showcase that talent.”

Funds raised at the Blind Beginnings Has Talent event will support the non-profit organiza-

In November 2012, she earned her master’s degree from UBC. Through Blind Beginnings, Marsolais mentors 17 blind youth leaders, including seven who are involved in planning the event and others who are competing and creating a promotional video for Blind Beginnings Has Talent.

“We can accommodate up to 300 people – at this point there are lots of tickets,” she said.

“Everybody is welcome.”

Marsolais believes that she and her family would have had an easier time adjusting to her blindness if a program like Blind Beginnings existed when she was a child.

“I was born with a degenerative condition,” she said in a previous Record article. “I could see when I was a kid, but I was

legally blind.”

Marsolais didn’t know she was going to go blind until she was about 12 years of age. Her parents learned of her diagnosis several years earlier.

“My parents were really young, quite shocked and didn’t know how to tell their little girl she was going blind – so they didn’t,” she said. “Adjusting to my blindness was really hard.”

Marsolais’s goal is to inspire the children and youth she works with to believe they can be anything they choose and they don’t have be limited because they are blind.

Learning every step of the way

BY TOM BERRIDGE SPORTS EDITOR tberridge@royalcityrecord.com

Good things come to those who wait. Even better things happen to those who use that time to improve themselves.

That certainly appears to be the case for the New Westminster Salmonbellies current No. 1 keeper Neil Tyacke.

The just turned 25-year-old played perhaps his best senior A lacrosse game on the eve of his birthday last Thursday, since being drafted into the Western Lacrosse Association in the third round by the Victoria Shamrocks in 2010.

The New Westminster Secondary School grad was the first star in the 5-4 victory over the Burnaby Lakers in a game that was anything but a defensive struggle.

More than 100 shots rained down on both goalies at Queen’s Park Arena, with Tyacke stopping the lion’s share with 49 saves.

In his first nine games as the Salmonbellies starter this season, Tyacke has a goals against average of nine and is third in the league with a .797 save percentage.

Not bad numbers for a young man who almost didn’t get a look in junior A. Tyacke spent most of his junior career playing at the B level before finally getting a chance to start in his final year with the Salmonbellies in 2009. Before that, he played just 102 callup minutes in goal with the junior A ‘Bellies.

The likeable Tyacke said he was lucky to have been in that position. It gave him an opportunity to learn and grow behind costarters Sean Tessarolo and Ray Hodgkinson.

“Just watching them and how they prepared, I tried to learn at every opportunity I got,” Tyacke

A dream come true: New Westminster goalie Neil Tyacke has taken every opportunity he has had in stride and has come out the better for it. said. “I just really wanted to be a junior A goalie. It was a dream.

It’s just awesome to run out on the floor wearing the red and white.”

The possibility of ever playing again for New Westminster looked remote after the draft.

Tyacke was released by Victoria

after playing in just four senior A games, but was later picked up in a trade by the Burnaby Lakers for the remainder of the season.

In 2011, Tyacke started the season in Maple Ridge, but was again let go.

As luck would have it, the

expendable Tyacke was brought back to Queen’s Park last season as a backup for all-star starter Tyler Richards.

This season, Tyacke was thrust into the starting role when Richards was slow to return to the team after backstopping the Washington Stealth to the pro National Lacrosse League Championship Cup final. Tyacke has played all but 29 minutes so far this season.

“I’m just grateful I got the opportunity here,” said Tyacke.

“I knew T (Tyler Richards) was going to take a little time off, but not this. I’m just taking the opportunity.”

Tyacke said he fully expects to go back to a backup role when Richards returns. But like his junior days, Tyacke chooses to dwell on the upside of that experience.

“I had no problem playing junior. I just knew I had to play.

I had to get the shots from somewhere,” he said.

And that above all, just might be Tyacke’s mantra.

This year, he worked his way onto the practice roster of the Stealth behind Salmonbellie teammates Richards and Matt Roik, and revelled in it.

“I got experience in Washington getting the shots. The shots I got all year were so huge,” he said.

“I took every shot I could. I wanted every shot I could. Honestly, every opportunity I have had, I’ve wanted to learn and to get better.”

And his falling career goals against stats and steadily improving save percentage numbers really do bear him out.

“I think teams need two goalies they can be confident in,” he added. “I just want to help the team. … It’s what I wanted as a kid.”

Seven straight and counting

The New Westminster Salmonbellies are ready for the fray.

The junior A lacrosse club wore down the Delta Islanders in the trenches and then blitzed the visitors 6-2 in the final period en route to a 10-4 victory at Queen’s Park Arena on Tuesday.

Just two days after arguably New West’s most complete win – a 178 decommissioning of the Victoria juniors – with just two weeks left on the B.C. Junior Lacrosse League schedule, the Salmonbellies appear battle-ready for the playoffs.

After a 20-shot bombardment in the opening period was repelled by Delta keeper Ryland Hood, goals

by Chris Nasato and Josh Byrne – with the team’s 46th and 47th shots on goal – less than a minute apart late in the second period, gave the ’Bellies the breakthrough they were working for.

New West closed out the campaign, scoring the last five goals in the game, including four unassisted markers.

Hall of famer to be honoured at junior A game

BY TOM BERRIDGE SPORTS EDITOR tberridge@royalcityrecord.com

Murray Lehman will be honoured for his 2012 induction into the Canadian Lacrosse Hall of Fame at a junior A lacrosse game next week.

Lehman, who gave a half century of his life to the junior game, mostly in New Westminster, was inducted into the hall last November.

“I was shocked,” said Lehman, when he first heard of his induction.

Only one other hall of fame member, John Van Os, Lehman’s mentor, has been inducted as a builder at the junior level.

“I say it was 50 years, but some say it was longer. But it’s an experience I didn’t think I will feel again,” said Lehman, who stumbled on Canada’s summer sport by accident.

Back in the 1960s, Lehman and Bob Marineau co-owned the Junior A Royals baseball club that played in the Metro Vancouver league.

“It was funny how I got involved (in lacrosse),” said Lehman.

One Thursday, after a rainout at Queen’s Park,

Marineau suggested the pair take in a senior lacrosse game at the arena across the way.

“There were three guys I knew working the time clock,” said Lehman. “They asked me, ‘Do you want to get involved?’ I said, ‘Doing what?’

“I played (baseball), I coached it and I managed it. But when I saw my first lacrosse game, I said, ‘This is the game I could enjoy.’”

He started as a goal judge and then was elevated to a bench official in the old Inter-City league, which is now the Western Lacrosse Association.

He soon began to coach youngsters where he lived in the South Burnaby minor association and later managed teams across the border in New Westminster, when the two Burnaby associations merged in the mid-1970s.

In 1981, Lehman took on the mantel of B.C. junior A league commissioner, a position he held for nine seasons.

In the ’90s, he turned to managing, working in Coquitlam for a short time before returning to the Royal City for the next 11 years in a variety of roles, ◗Honour Page 19

four-goal barrage.

“We have a very good defensive core,” said 20-year-old Brendan Ranford. “Our willingness to compete is second to none.

We just wear teams down and just work as a whole 20 guys.”

The Salmonbellies back end held the league’s top two scorers to a pair of goals apiece, while limiting the shots on Frank Scigliano to a meager 31. In turn, New West fired its third 60-plus salvo in four games at the Islander bunker.

“We just got to keep it up and keep working, keep moving and pressuring.

We’re expecting everybody’s best,” said Ranford, who came to the Salmonbellies for his final junior season after a five-year Western Hockey League career with the Kamloops Blazers, where he chalked up nearly 150 goals and 400 points in league and playoffs with the major junior club.

Ranford recently signed a pro entry level contract with the Texas Stars of the American Hockey League. He is a cousin of New Westminster future hall of famer Bill Ranford.

Born into a military family, Ranford picked up a lacrosse stick in Edmonton, applied it after a move to Vancouver Island and then took his passion to the next level as a peewee in the Royal City.

Getting a chance to go to a Minto Cup is a goal, and would be a highlight for what could be Ranford’s final season of competitive lacrosse.

“Hockey’s my game, but lacrosse is a game I love,” he said.

New Westminster is in Port Coquitlam tonight for an 8 p.m. start against the Saints. On June 25, New West plays host to Burnaby in a night game celebrating the hall of fame induction of Murray Lehman.

“Lacrosse was so unique.

Lehman will be honoured in a special ceremony at the game between New Westminster and Burnaby to be held at Queen’s Park Arena on Tuesday, June 25 at 8 p.m.

including junior A club president and a Minto Cup in 1994.

At the same time, he also held a position on the Canadian Lacrosse Hall of Fame board of governors, including that of chair from 1994 to ’99.

“One of the best moves I made was turning the (junior A) franchise over to Walt (Weaver). He was one of the reasons I came

back,” said Lehman, who is the current general manager of the New Westminster junior B club. “(Walt) didn’t want the Bs to fold. He didn’t have to twist my arm too hard.”

Lehman cannot begin to list the many experiences he has had from his connection with lacrosse.
