Little in the way of “big” or “fancy” has been built in the Bridgeview area of Surrey in recent years, but that changes with the arrival of Central City Brewers

+ Distillers’ facility.

The company’s gleaming new home has been constructed to mirror the gentle curve of Bridgeview Road, with a floor-to-ceiling wall of glass and cedar siding on the east side of the 65,000-square-foot brewery.

Inside, 14 hefty silver fermentation tanks, aligned in two rows, are ready to do their thing with the company’s

award-winning beers, but occupancy permits must first be granted.

“We’re ready to move in,” Tim Barnes, Central City’s VP of marketing and sales, told the Now on Thursday.

For a decade, the brewery has been in operation at the rear of the brewpub located at Central City Shopping Centre. The restaurant will remain open at the mall, Barnes said,

Partnership means farms will sprout at Delta schools The Delta school district is partnering with an innovative urban farming business to launch a first-of-its-kind program in B.C. Beginning this September, the district will begin farming some

of its underutilized properties to grow an array of fruit and vegetables, using some of the products in school cafeterias, while donating others to the food bank.

Students will be directly

involved, having a hands-on role in the urban farming program.

The district consulted with Kwantlen Polytechnic University to help shape the classroom component, but when it comes to

the growing, the district teamed up with SOLEFood Street Farms, co-founded by Michael Ableman.

“Delta is already doing great work and if we can add to that, enhance it, and maybe even have a

SOLEFood component as part of it, it would be incredibly powerful as an educational tool to have something on a farm production scale for students,” said Ableman.

Surrey

School district adopts policy to combat homophobia The Surrey board of education has adopted a new policy to combat homophobia in schools across the district.

The regulation, adopted at the latest school board meeting, intends to “support students, staff and community members of all sexual orientations or gender identities.”

Things affected by the ruling include curriculum content, staff education and training and behaviour expectations. Staff will also be reminded to promote awareness to students regarding the “harmful effects of isolation resulting from homophobic and transphobic discrimination.”

School employees are also now obligated to intervene in any incidents involving the use of homophobic statements or actions.

“This new regulation is a powerful statement and significant step forward for our district, but more importantly, for any student who has felt marginalized in any way because of sexual orientation,” said board of education chair Shawn Wilson.

The policy came as a recommendation from a working group comprising parents, students, employee groups and district staff.

The district will now “ensure that LGBTQ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and questioning) members of school communities and their families are welcomed, accepted and included in all aspects of education and school life.”

‹ from page 1

“It’s a lot of money, and it includes construction of the building, the equipment, the land – it’s a very big endeavour. (The dollar amount) is much bigger than what we are at right now, in terms of our annual revenues, even, so it’s a huge jump for us – not just a little jump, a massive jump.”

Planning began two years ago for the company’s new HQ, which includes office space, a retail store and tapping room.

“Overnight, we’ll be quadrupling our brewing capacity from where we are right now at the Central City site,” Barnes said.

“But for us it’s not about size, it’s quality and being the best at what we do. Certainly, we want to fill the building eventually, but we don’t have any volume plan.”

A large door has been built into the ceiling of the plant to allow additional fermentation tanks to be dropped down by crane, Barnes noted during a site tour June 21.

“We want to stage that future growth, once

we’re ready and we have enough sales to justify it,” he said. “It’s a custom-built building for us.”

The brewery includes four quality-assurance (QA) labs, along with a cellar (for barrel-aged beer and new whisky products) and massive cooler.

“With those QA labs, we’ll have the quality standards of a Molson or Labatt and the creativity of a craft brewery,” Barnes said. “That’s very unique because most craft breweries have creativity but not the quality standards of the big guys, that consistency. We have the best equipment and tools, along with the best people.”

Barnes is among 33 owners of the company, which will begin distilling whisky, vodka and gin in the coming months.

The first beer at the new brewery will be poured five weeks after the Central City crew moves in.

“There’s not a lot of new jobs, but we are hiring, yes, especially if we get into a 24/7 situation,” Barnes noted. “But the reality is, it’s highly mechanized in here, so the jobs currently

The tapping room will offer beverage tastings and draught beer sold in “growlers” (two-litre “grab and go” containers).

“That’ll be a big part of our business, those growlers, as part of a testing ground, for feedback from patrons,” Barnes said.

“The permits for the tapping room are done at the city level, and we’re lucky we’re operating in Surrey because the Vancouver guys aren’t as lucky with that. Surrey is, shall we say, more brewery-friendly, because Vancouver has put some blockages on tapping rooms, and they’re not able to sell full pints, like we will.

“We believe Surrey is the place to be,” Barnes added. “When we talked about growing, we didn’t even consider anywhere else because this is where we started and where we want to be.”

NEWS Surrey mystery

Fifty-two years later, search for Whalley woman continues RCMP making monthly appeals for clues to solve historic cases

Surrey Mounties have resurrected one of their oldest missing persons cases on the slim chance someone might know what became of Whalley resident Lucy Ann Johnson.

Her husband Marvin Johnson reported her missing on May 14, 1965, but police believe she may have already been missing for years prior to that, considering her neighbour last saw her in September 1961, in the 10300-block of

145A Street.

Suspecting foul play, police excavated the Johnson’s backyard but didn’t uncover any evidence to support that theory.

Marvin later remarried and lived out his days in the area until he died of natural causes in the late 1990s, without providing any more clues as to what became of Lucy, if he even knew.

“I’m not convinced he was responsible for her disappearance,” Const.

Mike Halskov, of the Surrey RCMP Missing Person Unit, said of Mr. Johnson. “There

Lucy Ann Johnson

could have been other reasons she left him.”

Lucy Johnson (née: Carvell) was born on Oct. 14, 1935 in Skagway, Alaska, of First Nations descent. If she’s alive, she’ll be 77.

Born to Margaret and Andrew Carvell, Lucy lived in Bennett, Alaska

Lucy’s is not the oldest missing persons case in the Surrey RCMP’s books. The oldest is that of Humphrey “Albert” Wilkinson, who would be 85 today. Halskov is in charge of his file, too.

Wilkinson was 30 years old when he was reported missing on Jan. 29, 1957.

The missing persons unit plans to make a number of monthly public appeals for clues to help solve historic cases here in Surrey.

Sgt. Rick Burns said police hope stories like these will attract tips that could bring closure to the missing persons’ loved ones, or perhaps even reunite some of them.

from 1935 to 1938, in Pennington, Alaska from 1939 to 1943 and then in Carncross, Yukon, from 1943 to 1952. She dropped contact with her family after leaving Carncross in 1953 and married Marvin Johnson, who worked as a first mate on a tugboat, in Blaine, Washington in April of 1954.

The couple had two children. Linda was born in 1954, and Daniel in 1955.

Daniel is deceased but Linda, who lives locally, still wonders what became of her mother.

The Johnsons moved several times in New Westminster before settling in Surrey in 1955 or 1956.

At least one Surrey city councillor is fed up with seeing signage for out-ofdown developments on public property in Surrey.

At the June 17 public hearing, as council sifted through a corporate report filled with amendments to the city’s signage bylaw, Coun. Linda Hepner raised a question about advertising for projects from neighbouring cities being placed on properties owned by the City of Surrey.

“I said, ‘Is it common for developments that happen within a city to use a different city for their signage and their advertising?’” recalled Hepner.

She noted that along Highway 10 near 148th Street, as well as in the South Surrey area, she had seen signage for the White Rock-based Royce condominium development.

“In the space of one block at four corners, I counted 17 signs for the Royce, which

has nothing to do with development and extensive development that’s already happening in our own city,” said Hepner.

Hepner said she has no problem with advertising on private property, but noted that when the signs are lining the highway, they can be “visually intrusive.”

Mayor Dianne Watts said Langley businesses have also put up signs within Surrey city limits around 64th Avenue and 192nd Street.

Hepner said she was told by city staff that there currently isn’t a process in place for developers to request permission through the city to put their signage on public property.

However, Hepner said if a process were to be proposed before council, she would not vote in favour of it.

“We’re a fast-growing city within our own right and we have sign issues as it is, so adopting other people’s sign issues from any of our neighbouring communities, I think, is a little more than we need.”

BC Hydro unveiled the province’s first electric vehicle (EV) fast-charging station on Friday, located at the headquarters of the company’s subsidiary, Powertech, in Surrey.

The station – which is free to use and is open from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday to Friday – can fully charge an electric vehicle in 30 minutes, compared to the city’s 14 other public EV stations that take three to four hours, and home plugin cords that take eight or more hours to charge.

Powertech president and CEO Don Stuckert was onhand for the presentation, as well as Coun. Bruce Hayne, who also chairs the city’s environmental sustainability advisory committee.

“This is such an important milestone for all of us in the journey toward sustainable transportation,” said Hayne. “About two years ago, the City of Surrey passed a bylaw in Surrey that any new gas station or any retro-fitted gas station in the city would have to provide an alternative fuel source other than the conventional fuels. We want to encourage the move toward greener technology.”

Bruce Stout, president of the Vancouver Electric Vehicle Association, emphasized the cost savings of electric vehicles, noting that EV drivers typically save at least five times on fuel compared to drivers of gas-powered vehicles.

“Many of the plug-in rechargeable batterypowered vehicles on display here today cost only two cents per kilometre to operate versus the 10 cents or more per-kilometre cost to operate the equivalent, gasoline-fuelled vehicles,” said Stout.

Calgary flood reinforces need for disaster strategy Jacob Zinn

Now contributor Twitter @jacobzinn

The Surrey Board of Trade is seeking approval from the federal government for a resolution to develop a specific and organized strategy for disaster relief.

The idea for the resolution came after the 2011 earthquake in Christchurch, New Zealand, but the current floods in southern and central Alberta – which have displaced more than 100,000 residents – have compounded the need for a strategy, said Anita Huberman, CEO of SBoT. “When we put this resolution together, we had no idea that the Calgary flood would take place,” she said. “We were just thinking in the event of an earthquake here on the West Coast.”

Huberman said that Alberta’s provincial government is taking measures to accommodate businesses by creating extensions on filing income taxes and making employment insurance more accessible for affected residents.

“The measures that are happening in

Calgary right now are a response to a situation,” she said. “It’s not something that was organized or in place before a disaster.”

The resolution would apply to any natural disaster – such as hurricanes, avalanches and blizzards – that occurs in Canada, and would provide uniform measures for businesses to survive and thrive.

The board is also asking the feds to review the results of the Christchurch earthquake as British Columbia has, for years, been expecting a devastating earthquake.

“Right now, the federal government only takes a look at critical services and businesses that provide critical services, but we want the federal government to take a look at all businesses to make sure that there is some type of a system or support system for businesses to continue,” she said, “and to include all businesses in the development and communication of any plans related to disaster planning.”

SBoT will go before the federal government with its resolution at a national conference in September.

B.C. braces for budget squeeze InTheHouse Keith Baldrey

B

ritish Columbians are about to find out what it means for a government to balance its budget when money starts to perform a vanishing act.

With less money coming in, it means the government has to cut spending to achieve its balanced budget goal – and it’s inevitable some of that reduced spending is going to result in some howls of outrage from those affected the most.

The B.C. Liberals were re-elected almost solely on the issue of economic management, and that included its promise to deliver balanced budgets, year in and year out. But the budget update provided this past week contained some unsettling numbers that underscore how hard it will be to balance the books without creating controversy.

First of all, the forecast for tax revenues has been slashed by more than $200 million. Finance Minister Mike de Jong is balancing

his budget on a razor’s edge (the projected surplus is now down to a mere $153 million, which is almost a rounding error on a $44 billion budget) so a revenue hit of that magnitude can very quickly wreck the best laid plans. Also worrisome for de Jong has to be a decline in the projected performance of some key economic indicators from the budget three months ago. GDP, personal incomes, corporate profits, retail sales – all are expected to perform worse than was envisioned in February.

On a more positive note, natural gas is making a bit of a comeback. Once a vital contributor to the government’s revenue base, natural gas revenues have collapsed in recent years but are now expected to come in more than $100 million higher than was forecast in February.

But, overall, there is little reason for any significant optimism on the revenue side. This brings us to the spending side of the budget, and this is where the public is going to feel the impact.

The B.C. government presents its budget as part of a three-year fiscal plan, and the next two years don’t look much rosier than the

current year (although the 2015-16 budget does contain significantly more breathing room when it comes to achieving a surplus).

On paper, de Jong is looking to chop at least $130 million over the next three years from his budget. On top of that, he is allocating funding increases to the health-care system that are a little more than half of what they have been for years.

These moves will undoubtedly impact government services for several years. It’s hard to see how wait times in the health-care system will be reduced in any meaningful way, and in fact they may well increase.

The government is also signalling it intends to put the brakes on any increase for physician fees. This could result in a confrontation with doctors, which is the kind of fight

governments rarely win.

All in all, the threeyear fiscal plan suggests that anyone who relies on government services should not expect an improvement in them any time soon. In fact, the budget squeeze could result in the elimination of some of those services, or at the very least deterioration in their quality.

And B.C.’s teachers should realize there is no money put aside for wage increases.

Any pay hikes will have to come from “savings” found within the education system, a difficult if not impossible task.

But there is what appears to be an inconsistency in this three-year restraint program. While government programs are being squeezed, frozen or being eliminated, the provincial debt will continue to climb at a remarkable pace.

Capital spending on such

things as schools, hospitals, roads, bridges and BC Hydro facilities mean the province will rack up a further $7 billion in debt over the next three years (this, after climbing almost $30 billion since 2006).

To give you an indication of how fast the debt is escalating, consider this: the government’s debt went up more than $350,000 during de Jong’s half-hour budget update presentation last week!

During the election campaign, Premier Christy Clark kept suggesting the province’s debt could

be wiped out because of pending fortunes to be made from the export of liquefied natural gas. Before we get there though, the debt will keep climbing, which is the direct opposite of what she was talking about on the campaign trail.

But she also talked about balancing the budget. Her government may never achieve those debt reduction targets, but it’s betting the farm it will accomplish the balancing act.

The Editor, As a resident of Delta for more than 75 years and a businessman servicing the marine industry on the Fraser River for some 60 years, I am against establishing a coal port at the Fraser Surrey Docks, which is located in the Fraser River Estuary.

This is an estuary that has recently been recognized and designated at the Ramsar Convention as a Wetland of International Significance, vital to the migratory birdlife and estuarine life.

Why must we accommodate U.S. coal mines when their own people do not wish it to be transferred to any of their port facilities on their own west coast for health and environmental reasons?

Why are proponents not concerned with the health of the people and the environmental problems that will occur during the transportation of the coal?

Why must we endanger the survival of the salmon migration to and from the salmon spawning grounds by allowing a commodity like coal to be exported further up the mouth of the Fraser River? How would we prevent coal dust from permeating the marshlands and filling the salmon fingerlings as they migrate to the sea?

And finally, why must we be so accommodating to export coal from another country so that yet another country can burn it and contribute to the global warming problem of the world?

To ease the cost of getting to Ucluelet, we are offer fuel credits on mid week stays.

Stay longer, save more. Up to $100 Credit!

The Editor, Re: “All quiet on the coal front,” the Now, June 20.

As a resident of Royal Heights for over 30 years, (located right above the docks), I think it is important for someone to voice their support for this proposal.

The issue of noise (electric shuttles), and dust control (enclosed conveyors) for unloading are well mitigated in Fraser Surrey Docks’ proposal. The fact that the proposal is utilizing barges that have been locally emptied of aggregate from Texada, and sending them back loaded with coal to load out at a deep sea terminal, is an energysaving and cost-efficient proposal.

As for the issue of added trains, the new South Fraser Perimeter Road is providing overpasses to alleviate some of these issues in Surrey. Unfortunately, for Crescent Beach and White Rock, the Burlington Northern Santa Fe line has never been tunnelled or rerouted in alignment with Highway 99, (which was a transportation topic 20 years ago) including a new rail bridge to cross the Fraser to resolve the bottleneck rail bridge that exists under the Pattullo Bridge.

The fact that the BNSF has been underutilized is not a reason to condemn this proposal. We cannot pay the cost to develop transportation infrastructure such as the BNSF and then deny it use because we want to get to the beach. We don’t need to turn every transport route into a bicycle path.

The recent election of the Liberal government seemed to carry the message that jobs and continued growth in commodities is relevant to the citizens of British Columbia.

I note that the protest of sales of coal to China is not necessarily tied to the local health impacts of coal dust, but rather the fact that coal, fracking, Keystone pipelines and Enbridge pipelines are all related to trading in commodities and energy supply to foreign lands.

Yet, the public is still willing to sit in lineups to buy cheaper goods and gasoline across the border, and shop for cheaper goods manufactured in China.

They want to flick a switch and have the lights come on, but are not willing to embrace the development of Site C dam so that we have green power for our future generations.

For years, we have seen coal stockpiled in North Vancouver and Roberts Bank.

Much like the garbage landfills of Delta and formerly Surrey, the public has to recognize that newer and improved methods have been developed for dealing with open stockpiles, and I firmly believe Fraser Surrey Docks has met the new standards.

The fact that Surrey has a bustling port is part of what makes us a world-class city.

In the world of politics, it is easy to say “no” to change, but I thought someone should at least say “yes.”

“The community responded well,” said Sahil, who has just finished Grade 6. His younger brother Armaan has just finished Grade 3.

The family, including father Sukhmander Sidhu and grandfather Balbir Sidhu, presented a cheque to the Canadian Cancer Society on Thursday, standing in front of the family’s garage, which is full of yet more bottles and cans for the charity.

“The boys started very soon after their mom passed away,” said Allan Mugford, regional director for the Fraser Valley Region of the Canadian Cancer Society B.C. and Yukon. “They are just an amazing, amazing family and they’ve been spearheading the cause and will continue spearheading the cause.

Two young boys have marked their mother’s birthday with a heartfelt project, Cans for Cancer.

Balwinder Kaur Sidhu passed away on May 7 after battling esophageal cancer for about a year. Thursday, June 27 would have been her 32nd birthday.

Her sons, Sahil, 11, and Armaan, 7, have raised more than $16,000 for the Canadian Cancer Society in about six weeks’ time through their Cans for Cancer initiative.

Teacher and family friend Darcy Sandhu proposed the idea of collecting cans and the boys set the goal of raising $3,200 to honour their mother’s birthday. They had already raised $10,000 less than a week after beginning the project.

of others, they can help others make a difference as well,” said Mugford. “It really shows that every individual can make a difference.”

At the event, Surrey Coun. Barinder Rasode presented the boys with a plaque on behalf of mayor and council and told them they were all proud of their effort.

“Everyone is so proud of you guys,” she said.

Sandhu, whose idea sparked the campaign, noted that the boys’ mother was not just a loving mother and wonderful wife but an important member of the community who valued giving back. She explained that was very important to Balwinder Sidhu that her boys learn to help others and that she would be very proud of their efforts in her name.

Bear Creek Park is going to be the newest Run for the Cure site this fall.

At the press conference to announce the news, Surrey Coun. Mary Martin said Surrey will be the only Run for the Cure event in B.C. to offer a timed 5K option on Oct. 6. The timed runs are a first for the annual charity fundraiser.

Wendy Slavin, CEO of the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation - BC/Yukon Region, said the new site gives people in the Fraser Valley a much-needed option between the Vancouver and Abbotsford sites.

“It has been years since we launched a new run site in B.C. and we are very excited to be here in Surrey, one of the fastest growing cities in Canada,” Slavin said at the Thursday morning conference.

Sally Haysom, a breast cancer survivor, is thrilled with the addition of the Surrey event.

“This is where I live. This is where most of my family lives,” she said.

Her family has participated in the Vancouver run with her for the past five years, she said.

She shared that she was terribly nervous before her first run, knowing that cancer survivors wear bright pink shirts for the event. Haysom feared there would be next to no pink shirts, confirming her fear that there was no surviving the disease.

But, when the day arrived, she said there was “a sea of pink.”

“It’s all about being there to support one another at this very difficult time of life.”

Run for the Cure is the largest single-day, volunteer led fundraising event dedicated to raising funds for breast cancer research.

Playground project needs volunteers to prep, build it A colourful new playground will be built at Whalley Athletic Park in mid-July with the help of 250 volunteers.

Two days of site-preparation work July 11 and 12 will be followed by a “build” day, on Saturday, July 13.

North Surrey Lions Club is looking for close to 175 volunteers to help with the project, with another 75 volunteers signed up through Foresters insurance company.

“It’s a great project for the park,” said Bonnie Burnside, Lions club president. “It is used by the surrounding community, which is obviously in transition with so many more people coming into the area, and on top of that it’s a place used by a lot of people from outside the community as well.”

Funding for the playground is provided

by Foresters as part of a $7-million grant to KaBOOM, a U.S.-based non-profit group, to build playgrounds across North America.

The City of Surrey will chip in $85,000 for drainage work, landscaping and additional furnishings, according to Owen Croy, the city’s manager of parks, and North Surrey Lions Club is helping with volunteer recruitment, food and other jobs.

“Our job is to provide a first-aid person for those days, and we asked Concord Pacific to sponsor that,” Burnside said. “A&W is sponsoring the breakfast each day, and PriceSmart on King George Boulevard is supplying salads.… We’re going to a lot of companies to get each of them to help the

project a little bit, with different things.”

The project site was chosen due to the high number of low-income families and new Canadians living in the area, Burnside said.

“Play is not only fun and active but a great socializing experience for these vulnerable families,” she told the Now. Croy said the city is “absolutely thrilled” to be part of the project.

“It’s going to be a great location for the (playground), at the old caretaker’s facility there,” Croy said. “What’s good about it is, it moves the playground a bit from the active ball diamonds, with all those balls flying around in so many directions. The current playground could end up with some balls coming into it, so moving it over a bit to a new location, with new equipment, will not only protect the safety of kids playing there, it’ll make the park function better.”

The playground is the first in Surrey for KaBOOM, which to date has built 14 such facilities in B.C. – eight in Vancouver and one each in North Vancouver, Nanaimo, Victoria, Langley and Kelowna, according to Mike Vietti, the organization’s senior communications manager.

On its website, KaBOOM is described as “a national nonprofit that envisions a great place to play within walking distance of every child in America.”

Volunteers are needed for the build and assembly teams, safety, security, a “green” team, food preparation and youth activities.

To get involved, email Burnside at president@ northsurreylionsclub.com. Businesses are also encouraged to get involved, she added.

Hippie Mike marks 10 years of touring Surrey Michael Booth

Now staff Twitter @boothnow

“Hippie Mike” Faux has something to celebrate this summer and everyone is invited to the festivities.

Faux will mark an even decade as the namesake behind Hippie Mike’s Tour de Surrey series of skateboard competitions staged throughout the city in the lazy days of summer.

With his flowing beard, long dreads and funky T-shirts, Faux — and his company, Protest Skateboards — has become Surrey’s answer to the Pied Piper as he spreads his message to kids of all ages. Faux’s company and his events are dedicated to creating opportunities for skateboarding and promoting the sport in a positive way.

“It’s a really positive event,” Faux said.

“If you don’t win, you don’t win — but everybody has fun. The young kids learn from the older kids and some of the old guys learn from the younger kids. Kids come to these events and they learn how to perform in front of a crowd, they learn how to land their tricks in a certain amount of

time, and they learn how to adapt to each park. If you want to be the king of Surrey, you have to win at every single park so you have to learn them all.

“The kids all support each other and there’s never really any bad vibrations at one of my competitions.”

The kids all support each other and there’s never really any bad vibrations at one of my competitions.

Now 35, Faux started his tour in 2004 when he noted that Delta, Langley and Surrey had more skateboarders — and good ones at that — as well as the most skate parks than any other municipality in the Lower Mainland. Despite those demographics, there were no existing skateboarding events and little support from big companies. see HIPPIE MIKE’S › page 15

“The Surrey firefighters donate money every year and a big chunk of that money goes toward helmets,” Faux said. “Every year I give away around 80 helmets. There are a lot of kids out there who would wear helmets, but they can’t afford them. This is where they get them, otherwise they wouldn’t have one.”

‹ from page 15 Taking his cue from the Bowl Series, Faux set out to create a showcase for Surrey skateboarders that would promote the sport in a fun and safe manner.

“I thought if we create a series of events that has more contests than any other city, the kids are sure to come,” he recalled. “All I really created was a big family. It’s very touching to me when I look back at year number one, and then at events from last year and I see that the same people are coming out. Then I look at kids I might have taught how to skateboard originally and now they are some of the best skateboarders in the city. And they still come out every year.”

When Hippie Mike’s Tour de Surrey started out 10 years ago, the event attracted just over a dozen sponsors. The posters promoting the 10th edition of the Tour contain the logos of more than 60 skateboard companies, support that helps in a big way when it comes to the prizes that are handed out at each event.

The entrance fee for each of the five stops on the Tour is geared to the sense of community generated by the event: $5 or two non-perishable food items. Everything — money and food — is donated to the Surrey Food Bank.

Hippie Mike’s events also promote safety

Cheers to success in Surrey When it came to expanding, Central City Brewers says it didn’t consider anywhere else but here

Tim Barnes, Central City’s VP of marketing and sales, takes the ‘Now’ on a tour of the company’s gleaming new home in Bridgeview. (Photo: LUIZ LOPES)

Little in the way of “big” or “fancy” has been built in the Bridgeview area of Surrey in recent years, but that changes with the arrival of Central City Brewers

+ Distillers’ facility.

The company’s gleaming new home has been constructed to mirror the gentle curve of Bridgeview Road, with a floor-to-ceiling wall of glass and cedar siding on the east side of the 65,000-square-foot brewery.

Inside, 14 hefty silver fermentation tanks, aligned in two rows, are ready to do their thing with the company’s

award-winning beers, but occupancy permits must first be granted.

“We’re ready to move in,” Tim Barnes, Central City’s VP of marketing and sales, told the Now on Thursday.

For a decade, the brewery has been in operation at the rear of the brewpub located at Central City Shopping Centre. The restaurant will remain open at the mall, Barnes said,

but the brewing equipment may be decommissioned and sold off in favour of the modern, much more efficient digital system located four kilometres down the hill in Bridgeview.

The total price tag for the new site is in the “tens of millions of dollars” range, according to Barnes. see BREWER › page 3

Partnership means farms will sprout at Delta schools The Delta school district is partnering with an innovative urban farming business to launch a first-of-its-kind program in B.C. Beginning this September, the district will begin farming some

of its underutilized properties to grow an array of fruit and vegetables, using some of the products in school cafeterias, while donating others to the food bank.

Students will be directly

involved, having a hands-on role in the urban farming program.

The district consulted with Kwantlen Polytechnic University to help shape the classroom component, but when it comes to

the growing, the district teamed up with SOLEFood Street Farms, co-founded by Michael Ableman.

“Delta is already doing great work and if we can add to that, enhance it, and maybe even have a

SOLEFood component as part of it, it would be incredibly powerful as an educational tool to have something on a farm production scale for students,” said Ableman.

School district adopts policy to combat homophobia The Surrey board of education has adopted a new policy to combat homophobia in schools across the district.

The regulation, adopted at the latest school board meeting, intends to “support students, staff and community members of all sexual orientations or gender identities.”

Things affected by the ruling include curriculum content, staff education and training and behaviour expectations. Staff will also be reminded to promote awareness to students regarding the “harmful effects of isolation resulting from homophobic and transphobic discrimination.”

School employees are also now obligated to intervene in any incidents involving the use of homophobic statements or actions.

“This new regulation is a powerful statement and significant step forward for our district, but more importantly, for any student who has felt marginalized in any way because of sexual orientation,” said board of education chair Shawn Wilson.

The policy came as a recommendation from a working group comprising parents, students, employee groups and district staff.

The district will now “ensure that LGBTQ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and questioning) members of school communities and their families are welcomed, accepted and included in all aspects of education and school life.”

“It’s a lot of money, and it includes construction of the building, the equipment, the land – it’s a very big endeavour. (The dollar amount) is much bigger than what we are at right now, in terms of our annual revenues, even, so it’s a huge jump for us – not just a little jump, a massive jump.”

Planning began two years ago for the company’s new HQ, which includes office space, a retail store and tapping room.

“Overnight, we’ll be quadrupling our brewing capacity from where we are right now at the Central City site,” Barnes said.

“But for us it’s not about size, it’s quality and being the best at what we do. Certainly, we want to fill the building eventually, but we don’t have any volume plan.”

A large door has been built into the ceiling of the plant to allow additional fermentation tanks to be dropped down by crane, Barnes noted during a site tour June 21.

“We want to stage that future growth, once

we’re ready and we have enough sales to justify it,” he said. “It’s a custom-built building for us.”

The brewery includes four quality-assurance (QA) labs, along with a cellar (for barrel-aged beer and new whisky products) and massive cooler.

“With those QA labs, we’ll have the quality standards of a Molson or Labatt and the creativity of a craft brewery,” Barnes said. “That’s very unique because most craft breweries have creativity but not the quality standards of the big guys, that consistency. We have the best equipment and tools, along with the best people.”

Barnes is among 33 owners of the company, which will begin distilling whisky, vodka and gin in the coming months.

The first beer at the new brewery will be poured five weeks after the Central City crew moves in.

“There’s not a lot of new jobs, but we are hiring, yes, especially if we get into a 24/7 situation,” Barnes noted. “But the reality is, it’s highly mechanized in here, so the jobs currently

The tapping room will offer beverage tastings and draught beer sold in “growlers” (two-litre “grab and go” containers).

“That’ll be a big part of our business, those growlers, as part of a testing ground, for feedback from patrons,” Barnes said.

“The permits for the tapping room are done at the city level, and we’re lucky we’re operating in Surrey because the Vancouver guys aren’t as lucky with that. Surrey is, shall we say, more brewery-friendly, because Vancouver has put some blockages on tapping rooms, and they’re not able to sell full pints, like we will.

“We believe Surrey is the place to be,” Barnes added. “When we talked about growing, we didn’t even consider anywhere else because this is where we started and where we want to be.”

NEWS White Rock

City grills Fraser Surrey Docks CEO over coal traffic Christopher Poon

Now staff Twitter @questionchris

As one of the communities that would be affected most by the coal transfer facility proposed for the Fraser Surrey Docks (FSD), White Rock has been a source of much concern about the particulars of the project.

White Rock Mayor Wayne Baldwin has gone on record saying that he felt some of those concerns had yet to be addressed and last week, FSD CEO Jeff Scott attempted to alleviate that by making a presentation before council.

Doing his best to sell the project, Scott

discussed the various safety measures that would be put in place to minimize coal dust and the environmental impact of the project – a key concern raised by opponents.

Coun. Helen Fathers asked why U.S. coal had to be brought up through Canada in order to be shipped out internationally, to Jeff Scott which Scott said FSD was in the best position to offer the fastest service to U.S. exporters.

“Facilities in U.S. are just not available... it could take six to eight years to go through that process,” said Scott. “Our facility would take six months to build, so timing to market is the difference.”

One of the major concerns from council was train traffic through the community.

Currently, there are about four coal trains a day that comes through White Rock, which go to the West Shore terminal for

processing. Scott said the FSD proposal would mean one more coal train coming through the community per day, or 320 more per year.

Baldwin later pointed out that it would in fact be 640 more trains per year, as the trains would all be making return trips.

“That’s 320 coming in, and 320 coming out, so 640 more trains coming through White Rock,” said Baldwin.

Coun. Louse Hutchinson took exception to the proposed increase in coal train traffic, saying there was enough as it is.

“The less coal we look at the better off we will feel, I’m sure that’s the feeling of people in our town,” she said. “We don’t want one more coal train, we want three less.”

Hutchinson also took issue with exporting a “dirty energy” source such as coal, which

would be going to Asian countries like South Korea, Japan and China.

“I don’t like to think I’m transporting poisonous goods to those countries,” she said.

“We’re just contributing to the poor health of the Koreans, Chinese and Japanese.”

However, Scott said if the coal proposal does get rejected, they would be looking to transporting other commodities through FSD. “We’re looking at growth and the expansion of our terminal, so it’s going to be some sort of rail,” said Scott. “Rail is coming – if it’s not coal, it’s going to be something.

“The reality is there isn’t just a readily available energy source. Coal will be a component of global energy need for the next few decades and we need to look at policy on how that’s handled and shipped.”

Port Metro Vancouver will have the final say on the project, though no deadline is in place for a decision.

Amendments to a controversial bylaw that would affect building height restrictions in White Rock’s CR3 zone were pushed back following continued outcry by members of the community.

The omnibus bylaw, known as Bylaw 2000, not only affects building heights, but also bed and breakfast operations within the city and was passed in April.

However, due to the controversial nature of the bylaw, council promised to revisit the wording.

Some of the controversial parts of the bylaw include the removal of a threestorey limit on buildings in the CR3 zone on Marine Drive, as well as making it illegal for bed and breakfast operations to act as a vacation home at the same time, effectively outlawing three current operations in the city.

During a public hearing on the matter, residents seem largely unimpressed

with the proposed changes to the bylaw, which proposed smaller building footprints.

“Here we are again, after all the discussion, all the letters and emails, we find basically nothing has changed,” said resident Simon Bergen.

According to Bergen, all residents want is to ensure that their hillside views remain protected and that building grade is measured from the curb, as is the case elsewhere in White Rock.

“A curb at existing grade is not rocket science,” said Bergen. “Why such reluctance to consider this area any differently?”

As for the B&B aspect of the bylaw, David Webb, president of the White Rock Bed & Breakfast Association, said he supported the proposed changes, which would now allow property owners to operate B&Bs and vocational rentals at once.

“What staff has come up with is a made in White Rock solution.”

Pending further discussion, council deferred voting on the bylaw. cpoon@thenownewspaper.com

BC Hydro unveiled the province’s first electric vehicle (EV) fast-charging station on Friday, located at the headquarters of the company’s subsidiary, Powertech, in Surrey.

The station – which is free to use and is open from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday to Friday – can fully charge an electric vehicle in 30 minutes, compared to the city’s 14 other public EV stations that take three to four hours, and home plugin cords that take eight or more hours to charge.

Powertech president and CEO Don Stuckert was onhand for the presentation, as well as Coun. Bruce Hayne, who also chairs the city’s environmental sustainability advisory committee.

“This is such an important milestone for all of us in the journey toward sustainable transportation,” said Hayne. “About two years ago, the City of Surrey passed a bylaw in Surrey that any new gas station or any retro-fitted gas station in the city would have to provide an alternative fuel source other than the conventional fuels. We want to encourage the move toward greener technology.”

Bruce Stout, president of the Vancouver Electric Vehicle Association, emphasized the cost savings of electric vehicles, noting that EV drivers typically save at least five times on fuel compared to drivers of gas-powered vehicles.

“Many of the plug-in rechargeable batterypowered vehicles on display here today cost only two cents per kilometre to operate versus the 10 cents or more per-kilometre cost to operate the equivalent, gasoline-fuelled vehicles,” said Stout.

Calgary flood reinforces need for disaster strategy Jacob Zinn

Now contributor Twitter @jacobzinn

The Surrey Board of Trade is seeking approval from the federal government for a resolution to develop a specific and organized strategy for disaster relief.

The idea for the resolution came after the 2011 earthquake in Christchurch, New Zealand, but the current floods in southern and central Alberta – which have displaced more than 100,000 residents – have compounded the need for a strategy, said Anita Huberman, CEO of SBoT. “When we put this resolution together, we had no idea that the Calgary flood would take place,” she said. “We were just thinking in the event of an earthquake here on the West Coast.”

Huberman said that Alberta’s provincial government is taking measures to accommodate businesses by creating extensions on filing income taxes and making employment insurance more accessible for affected residents.

“The measures that are happening in

Calgary right now are a response to a situation,” she said. “It’s not something that was organized or in place before a disaster.”

The resolution would apply to any natural disaster – such as hurricanes, avalanches and blizzards – that occurs in Canada, and would provide uniform measures for businesses to survive and thrive.

The board is also asking the feds to review the results of the Christchurch earthquake as British Columbia has, for years, been expecting a devastating earthquake.

“Right now, the federal government only takes a look at critical services and businesses that provide critical services, but we want the federal government to take a look at all businesses to make sure that there is some type of a system or support system for businesses to continue,” she said, “and to include all businesses in the development and communication of any plans related to disaster planning.”

SBoT will go before the federal government with its resolution at a national conference in September.

B.C. braces for budget squeeze InTheHouse Keith Baldrey

B

ritish Columbians are about to find out what it means for a government to balance its budget when money starts to perform a vanishing act.

With less money coming in, it means the government has to cut spending to achieve its balanced budget goal – and it’s inevitable some of that reduced spending is going to result in some howls of outrage from those affected the most.

The B.C. Liberals were re-elected almost solely on the issue of economic management, and that included its promise to deliver balanced budgets, year in and year out. But the budget update provided this past week contained some unsettling numbers that underscore how hard it will be to balance the books without creating controversy.

First of all, the forecast for tax revenues has been slashed by more than $200 million. Finance Minister Mike de Jong is balancing

his budget on a razor’s edge (the projected surplus is now down to a mere $153 million, which is almost a rounding error on a $44 billion budget) so a revenue hit of that magnitude can very quickly wreck the best laid plans. Also worrisome for de Jong has to be a decline in the projected performance of some key economic indicators from the budget three months ago. GDP, personal incomes, corporate profits, retail sales – all are expected to perform worse than was envisioned in February.

On a more positive note, natural gas is making a bit of a comeback. Once a vital contributor to the government’s revenue base, natural gas revenues have collapsed in recent years but are now expected to come in more than $100 million higher than was forecast in February.

But, overall, there is little reason for any significant optimism on the revenue side. This brings us to the spending side of the budget, and this is where the public is going to feel the impact.

The B.C. government presents its budget as part of a three-year fiscal plan, and the next two years don’t look much rosier than the

current year (although the 2015-16 budget does contain significantly more breathing room when it comes to achieving a surplus).

On paper, de Jong is looking to chop at least $130 million over the next three years from his budget. On top of that, he is allocating funding increases to the health-care system that are a little more than half of what they have been for years.

These moves will undoubtedly impact government services for several years. It’s hard to see how wait times in the health-care system will be reduced in any meaningful way, and in fact they may well increase.

The government is also signalling it intends to put the brakes on any increase for physician fees. This could result in a confrontation with doctors, which is the kind of fight

governments rarely win.

All in all, the threeyear fiscal plan suggests that anyone who relies on government services should not expect an improvement in them any time soon. In fact, the budget squeeze could result in the elimination of some of those services, or at the very least deterioration in their quality.

And B.C.’s teachers should realize there is no money put aside for wage increases.

Any pay hikes will have to come from “savings” found within the education system, a difficult if not impossible task.

But there is what appears to be an inconsistency in this three-year restraint program. While government programs are being squeezed, frozen or being eliminated, the provincial debt will continue to climb at a remarkable pace.

Capital spending on such

things as schools, hospitals, roads, bridges and BC Hydro facilities mean the province will rack up a further $7 billion in debt over the next three years (this, after climbing almost $30 billion since 2006).

To give you an indication of how fast the debt is escalating, consider this: the government’s debt went up more than $350,000 during de Jong’s half-hour budget update presentation last week!

During the election campaign, Premier Christy Clark kept suggesting the province’s debt could

be wiped out because of pending fortunes to be made from the export of liquefied natural gas. Before we get there though, the debt will keep climbing, which is the direct opposite of what she was talking about on the campaign trail.

But she also talked about balancing the budget. Her government may never achieve those debt reduction targets, but it’s betting the farm it will accomplish the balancing act.

The Editor, As a resident of Delta for more than 75 years and a businessman servicing the marine industry on the Fraser River for some 60 years, I am against establishing a coal port at the Fraser Surrey Docks, which is located in the Fraser River Estuary.

This is an estuary that has recently been recognized and designated at the Ramsar Convention as a Wetland of International Significance, vital to the migratory birdlife and estuarine life.

Why must we accommodate U.S. coal mines when their own people do not wish it to be transferred to any of their port facilities on their own west coast for health and environmental reasons?

Why are proponents not concerned with the health of the people and the environmental problems that will occur during the transportation of the coal?

Why must we endanger the survival of the salmon migration to and from the salmon spawning grounds by allowing a commodity like coal to be exported further up the mouth of the Fraser River? How would we prevent coal dust from permeating the marshlands and filling the salmon fingerlings as they migrate to the sea?

And finally, why must we be so accommodating to export coal from another country so that yet another country can burn it and contribute to the global warming problem of the world?

To ease the cost of getting to Ucluelet, we are offer fuel credits on mid week stays.

The Editor, Re: “All quiet on the coal front,” the Now, June 20.

As a resident of Royal Heights for over 30 years, (located right above the docks), I think it is important for someone to voice their support for this proposal.

The issue of noise (electric shuttles), and dust control (enclosed conveyors) for unloading are well mitigated in Fraser Surrey Docks’ proposal. The fact that the proposal is utilizing barges that have been locally emptied of aggregate from Texada, and sending them back loaded with coal to load out at a deep sea terminal, is an energysaving and cost-efficient proposal.

As for the issue of added trains, the new South Fraser Perimeter Road is providing overpasses to alleviate some of these issues in Surrey. Unfortunately, for Crescent Beach and White Rock, the Burlington Northern Santa Fe line has never been tunnelled or rerouted in alignment with Highway 99, (which was a transportation topic 20 years ago) including a new rail bridge to cross the Fraser to resolve the bottleneck rail bridge that exists under the Pattullo Bridge.

The fact that the BNSF has been underutilized is not a reason to condemn this proposal. We cannot pay the cost to develop transportation infrastructure such as the BNSF and then deny it use because we want to get to the beach. We don’t need to turn every transport route into a bicycle path.

The recent election of the Liberal government seemed to carry the message that jobs and continued growth in commodities is relevant to the citizens of British Columbia.

I note that the protest of sales of coal to China is not necessarily tied to the local health impacts of coal dust, but rather the fact that coal, fracking, Keystone pipelines and Enbridge pipelines are all related to trading in commodities and energy supply to foreign lands.

Yet, the public is still willing to sit in lineups to buy cheaper goods and gasoline across the border, and shop for cheaper goods manufactured in China.

They want to flick a switch and have the lights come on, but are not willing to embrace the development of Site C dam so that we have green power for our future generations.

For years, we have seen coal stockpiled in North Vancouver and Roberts Bank.

Much like the garbage landfills of Delta and formerly Surrey, the public has to recognize that newer and improved methods have been developed for dealing with open stockpiles, and I firmly believe Fraser Surrey Docks has met the new standards.

The fact that Surrey has a bustling port is part of what makes us a world-class city.

In the world of politics, it is easy to say “no” to change, but I thought someone should at least say “yes.”

“The community responded well,” said Sahil, who has just finished Grade 6. His younger brother Armaan has just finished Grade 3.

The family, including father Sukhmander Sidhu and grandfather Balbir Sidhu, presented a cheque to the Canadian Cancer Society on Thursday, standing in front of the family’s garage, which is full of yet more bottles and cans for the charity.

“The boys started very soon after their mom passed away,” said Allan Mugford, regional director for the Fraser Valley Region of the Canadian Cancer Society B.C. and Yukon. “They are just an amazing, amazing family and they’ve been spearheading the cause and will continue spearheading the cause.

Two young boys have marked their mother’s birthday with a heartfelt project, Cans for Cancer.

Balwinder Kaur Sidhu passed away on May 7 after battling esophageal cancer for about a year. Thursday, June 27 would have been her 32nd birthday.

Her sons, Sahil, 11, and Armaan, 7, have raised more than $16,000 for the Canadian Cancer Society in about six weeks’ time through their Cans for Cancer initiative.

Teacher and family friend Darcy Sandhu proposed the idea of collecting cans and the boys set the goal of raising $3,200 to honour their mother’s birthday. They had already raised $10,000 less than a week after beginning the project.

of others, they can help others make a difference as well,” said Mugford. “It really shows that every individual can make a difference.”

At the event, Surrey Coun. Barinder Rasode presented the boys with a plaque on behalf of mayor and council and told them they were all proud of their effort.

“Everyone is so proud of you guys,” she said.

Sandhu, whose idea sparked the campaign, noted that the boys’ mother was not just a loving mother and wonderful wife but an important member of the community who valued giving back. She explained that was very important to Balwinder Sidhu that her boys learn to help others and that she would be very proud of their efforts in her name.

Bear Creek Park is going to be the newest Run for the Cure site this fall.

At the press conference to announce the news, Surrey Coun. Mary Martin said Surrey will be the only Run for the Cure event in B.C. to offer a timed 5K option on Oct. 6. The timed runs are a first for the annual charity fundraiser.

Wendy Slavin, CEO of the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation - BC/Yukon Region, said the new site gives people in the Fraser Valley a much-needed option between the Vancouver and Abbotsford sites.

“It has been years since we launched a new run site in B.C. and we are very excited to be here in Surrey, one of the fastest growing cities in Canada,” Slavin said at the Thursday morning conference.

Sally Haysom, a breast cancer survivor, is thrilled with the addition of the Surrey event.

“This is where I live. This is where most of my family lives,” she said.

Her family has participated in the Vancouver run with her for the past five years, she said.

She shared that she was terribly nervous before her first run, knowing that cancer survivors wear bright pink shirts for the event. Haysom feared there would be next to no pink shirts, confirming her fear that there was no surviving the disease.

But, when the day arrived, she said there was “a sea of pink.”

“It’s all about being there to support one another at this very difficult time of life.”

Run for the Cure is the largest single-day, volunteer led fundraising event dedicated to raising funds for breast cancer research.

Playground project needs volunteers to prep, build it A colourful new playground will be built at Whalley Athletic Park in mid-July with the help of 250 volunteers.

Two days of site-preparation work July 11 and 12 will be followed by a “build” day, on Saturday, July 13.

North Surrey Lions Club is looking for close to 175 volunteers to help with the project, with another 75 volunteers signed up through Foresters insurance company.

“It’s a great project for the park,” said Bonnie Burnside, Lions club president. “It is used by the surrounding community, which is obviously in transition with so many more people coming into the area, and on top of that it’s a place used by a lot of people from outside the community as well.”

Funding for the playground is provided

by Foresters as part of a $7-million grant to KaBOOM, a U.S.-based non-profit group, to build playgrounds across North America.

The City of Surrey will chip in $85,000 for drainage work, landscaping and additional furnishings, according to Owen Croy, the city’s manager of parks, and North Surrey Lions Club is helping with volunteer recruitment, food and other jobs.

“Our job is to provide a first-aid person for those days, and we asked Concord Pacific to sponsor that,” Burnside said. “A&W is sponsoring the breakfast each day, and PriceSmart on King George Boulevard is supplying salads.… We’re going to a lot of companies to get each of them to help the

project a little bit, with different things.”

The project site was chosen due to the high number of low-income families and new Canadians living in the area, Burnside said.

“Play is not only fun and active but a great socializing experience for these vulnerable families,” she told the Now. Croy said the city is “absolutely thrilled” to be part of the project.

“It’s going to be a great location for the (playground), at the old caretaker’s facility there,” Croy said. “What’s good about it is, it moves the playground a bit from the active ball diamonds, with all those balls flying around in so many directions. The current playground could end up with some balls coming into it, so moving it over a bit to a new location, with new equipment, will not only protect the safety of kids playing there, it’ll make the park function better.”

The playground is the first in Surrey for KaBOOM, which to date has built 14 such facilities in B.C. – eight in Vancouver and one each in North Vancouver, Nanaimo, Victoria, Langley and Kelowna, according to Mike Vietti, the organization’s senior communications manager.

On its website, KaBOOM is described as “a national nonprofit that envisions a great place to play within walking distance of every child in America.”

Volunteers are needed for the build and assembly teams, safety, security, a “green” team, food preparation and youth activities.

To get involved, email Burnside at president@ northsurreylionsclub.com. Businesses are also encouraged to get involved, she added.

Longboarding panel searches for safety solutions Christopher Poon

Now staff Twitter @questionchris

Longboarding is here to stay, so how do we deal with it?

That was the key message gleaned from a community meeting aimed at tackling the issue of longboarding in South Surrey/ White Rock late last week.

The panel, made up of police, medical personnel and bylaw officers, as well as representatives from the longboarding community and Surrey’s parks and recreation, was put together to begin a community dialogue on an issue “that’s clearly not going away.”

“This is just a discussion on longboarding, how it’s affecting us, impacting different people and different user groups,” said Staff Sgt. Dan Gibbons of the Surrey RCMP. “I hope we can, collectively as a community, bring forward some solutions and advance the sport.

“Everyone I’ve met has agreed that safety is paramount, be it boarders, drivers and residents.”

However, it was the residents who outnumbered the boarders at the meeting, with just one young boarder with his father in attendance, the key demographic being discussed.

“What right does a group of longboarders have usurping a street for a whole week and impeding traffic, both pedestrian and vehicle?” asked one concerned

Both longboarders and residents – as well as police, bylaws officers and medical personnel – all agree that longboarding is here to stay in the South Surrey and White Rock areas, and so something must be done to make the sport safer for everyone concerned. resident. “What can we do when a group of 16 longboarders threaten the safety of pedestrians and themselves as they fight the traffic?”

Those in attendance all agreed there was an issue, and that the current methods of enforcement were not working.

“What’s been created over the past few years is an us versus them mentality,”

said Const. Troy Derrick, also an avid skateboarder. “We’ve gone with the status quo for so long, banning and fining, but that hasn’t worked and it’s caused more problems than it has good, in some aspects.

So now we need to come up with other solutions.”

Doug House, president of MedTech E.M.S., said he initially didn’t know

anything about longboarding. But after providing medical coverage for several events, he’s grown to enjoy watching the sport and feels the community needs to work together to support it rather than try to suppress it.

“It’s never going to go away; you’re just going to move it somewhere else,” said House.

Rather, House pointed to other communities where annual longboarding events are held one or two times a year. In those communities, boarders know not to “poach” the streets during the year, lest they lose the yearly events that they look forward to so much.

“I can tell you that it’s worked elsewhere,” he said.

However, for real change to occur, it was agreed that city council, be it Surrey’s or White Rock’s, had to be made aware that this was a pressing issue. To do so, members of the longboarding community were encouraged to appear as delegations in either city.

“We know we’re never going to eliminate it or stop it altogether. Our main line is to at least get some education out there,” said Derrick.

“People need to understand that this requires a community effort, not just police, bylaw, longboarders or residents, but a community effort to deal with this to make a difference.”

Hippie Mike marks 10 years of touring Surrey Michael Booth

Now staff Twitter @boothnow

“Hippie Mike” Faux has something to celebrate this summer and everyone is invited to the festivities.

Faux will mark an even decade as the namesake behind Hippie Mike’s Tour de Surrey series of skateboard competitions staged throughout the city in the lazy days of summer.

With his flowing beard, long dreads and funky T-shirts, Faux — and his company, Protest Skateboards — has become Surrey’s answer to the Pied Piper as he spreads his message to kids of all ages. Faux’s company and his events are dedicated to creating opportunities for skateboarding and promoting the sport in a positive way.

“It’s a really positive event,” Faux said.

“If you don’t win, you don’t win — but everybody has fun. The young kids learn from the older kids and some of the old guys learn from the younger kids. Kids come to these events and they learn how to perform in front of a crowd, they learn how to land their tricks in a certain amount of

time, and they learn how to adapt to each park. If you want to be the king of Surrey, you have to win at every single park so you have to learn them all.

“The kids all support each other and there’s never really any bad vibrations at one of my competitions.”

The kids all support each other and there’s never really any bad vibrations at one of my competitions.

Now 35, Faux started his tour in 2004 when he noted that Delta, Langley and Surrey had more skateboarders — and good ones at that — as well as the most skate parks than any other municipality in the Lower Mainland. Despite those demographics, there were no existing skateboarding events and little support from big companies. see HIPPIE MIKE’S › page 15

“I thought if we create a series of events that has more contests than any other city, the kids are sure to come,” he recalled. “All I really created was a big family. It’s very touching to me when I look back at year number one, and then at events from last year and I see that the same people are coming out. Then I look at kids I might have taught how to skateboard originally and now they are some of the best skateboarders in the city. And they still come out every year.”

When Hippie Mike’s Tour de Surrey started out 10 years ago, the event attracted just over a dozen sponsors. The posters promoting the 10th edition of the Tour contain the logos of more than 60 skateboard companies, support that helps in a big way when it comes to the prizes that are handed out at each event.

The entrance fee for each of the five stops on the Tour is geared to the sense of community generated by the event: $5 or two non-perishable food items. Everything — money and food — is donated to the Surrey Food Bank.

Hippie Mike’s events also promote safety

WELIVEHERE. WEGIVEHERE. WORKING TOGETHER TO SERVE OUR COMMUNITY

We Live Here, We Give Here is a message of civic pride and community involvement. This summer, why not get involved and volunteer? weliveherewegivehere.ca will link you to three of Surrey’s most well-known charities, all of which offer a variety of volunteer and donation options.

This joint initiative between the Surrey Fire Fighters Charitable Society, the Surrey Food Bank and the Surrey Memorial Hospital Foundation encourages Surrey residents to donate in support of the work being done in their community by leading charitable organizations.

surreyfirefighters.com

surreyfoodbank.org

For more information and to donate to any one of these 3 featured charities, visit us online at:

weliveherewegivehere.ca

Residents in Surrey generously donate more than $100 million to charities worldwide each year, including over 70 charities and organizations in Surrey alone. At a time when Surrey is undergoing rapid growth, our city is strengthened by the work of charities whose efforts are local. These three Surrey charities have come together in a unique partnership with a common goal: encourage residents to make donations that support their community.

Please support our “We Live Here, We Give Here“ campaign.
