An outpouring of emotional messages flooded an online fundraising website for Christy Mahy, the 36 year-old woman who tragically died while cycling on Sea Island last week. Mahy, a longtime Richmond resident, attended McNair secondary and, according to friends, was a kind, thoughtful and private person, who touched many people’s lives. At the scene of the tragedy on Tuesday was Kristen Fiessel, who described herself as a friend of Mahy. “It was devastating. I actually (gave birth) to my son the same day she died,” said Fiessel. “She was a friend. She was a genuine person. Very nice...I never heard an unkind word from her mouth.” On Facebook, a friend called Erin wrote, “Christy is a very special friend that knows you as you are, understands where you have been, and only loves you for who you are...” While Brian and Kelly Dominik wrote, “I was immediately drawn to her kindness and thoughtfulness and became quite fond of Christy when we met as young teenagers. I have nothing but great memories of her and wish her eternal peace.” The fundraiser in Mahy’s name is being organized by Nattalia Vance, as well as Cindy Schofield, a friend of Joni Mahy, Christy’s sister. Joni, who’s organizing a slideshow for her sister’s service, was unavailable for comment at press time. As of Tuesday, the fundraiser for a celebration of life service had raised $4,400 from 62 donors, after quickly reaching its goal of $2,500. Schofield said any extra money would go toward Joni’s charity of choice. The fundraising page, at www.youcaring.com, had been shared more than 500 times on Facebook. Mahy was standing with her bike at the intersection of Gilbert Road and Russ Baker Way on a sunny Wednesday afternoon. A driver of an SUV lost control of the vehicle and struck Mahy, who died less than an hour later. Mahy was predeceased by her mother and survived by her father. Richmond RCMP have not laid charges but said speed could be a factor in the accident. Mounties are also asking for possible witnesses to come forward by calling 604-278-1212.

MEMORIAL TOURNAMENT
Feeling the pleasure and the pain Noah Yelizarov’s parents have mixed emotions over the 10th renewal of their late son’s event. By Christopher Sun Special to the News
Celebrating the 10th anniversary of the Noah Yelizarov Memorial Hockey Tournament is bittersweet for the Yelizarov family. The tournament, which has raised more than $200,000 for Children’s Hospital and Canuck Place, is an annual reunion for family and friends and it’s a popular community event. However, it’s also a reminder to Noah’s parents — Michael and Lori — and their eldest son, Jonathan, that the event only takes place because of a tragic accident. Noah, 18, and just days before his 19th birthday, was vacationing in Thailand when he was electrocuted after standing under a power line. The following year, the memorial tournament was created and it has continued ever since. “Every year we look forward to seeing all those kids who grew up with Noah and now they are bringing their own kids to it,” Michael said, before choking up. “We see these kids who are now 28, 29 and we think ‘wow, when did that happen?’ In our minds, Noah is still 18.” The one day, three-on-three ice hockey tournament raises about $30,000 for charities annually and has become so popular that it moved to the Richmond Olympic Oval from the Richmond Ice Centre three years ago. There are 22 teams playing and NHL players are known to drop by, as Noah was a hockey player and huge Canucks fan. This year, organizers are scaling down the fundraising focus and bringing the tournament back to its roots. There will still be the usual tournament and activities such as dunk tank, music, auction, beer garden and even a pedestal joust, but there will also be an open mic in the evening for people to share their stories about Noah. “The reason why we’re there is to honour our son’s memory and do good things in his memory,” Lori said. “The event does good things by helping out Children’s Hospital and Canuck Place, but we want to do something a
Noah Yelizarov’s parents, Michael and Lori, hold up a picture of their beloved son, whom they lost in a tragic accident more than 10 years ago. This year, the couple wants the 10th renewal of their son’s memorial hockey tournament to be a time to recall all the best stories about Noah. Photo by Alan Campbell/Richmond News little different for this 10th year.” The family maintains a strong connection with Noah’s friends and they’ve gone to some of his friends’ weddings, which brings both happiness and sadness. “We were at a wedding last week and Michael was bawling his eyes out (because Noah should be attending these and having his own) but this is the way it’s supposed to be,” Lori said. Jeff Hopkins was best friends with Noah and he maintains
a strong relationship with the Yelizarov family, meeting with them from time-to-time. Hopkins, also an organizer of the memorial tournament, used to play hockey with Noah and lived down the street from each other. “We were pretty inseparable,” Hopkins said. “It doesn’t feel like it’s been 10 years. It’s flown by.” The Noah Yelizarov Memorial Hockey Tournament hits the Richmond Olympic Oval ice on Sunday, Aug. 17. More information can be found at www.noahmemorialhockey.ca.

The sockeye are coming. But how many is still to be determined and a recent spell of hot weather could jeopardize the migration. On Friday, the Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) said this year’s forecast could still fall within the wide range of 7.3 and 72.5 million fish. Pre-season estimates pegged the return at about 23 million. As of Thursday, 848,000 fish are estimated to have passed by Mission. The 2014 run is supposed to be exceptionally large in the four-year cycle of sockeye. In 2010 about 30 million salmon returned. On Sunday, recreational sockeye fishing was opened on the shores of Richmond, with the DFO permitting four fish per day, until further notice. Today, non-tidal portions of the Fraser River were opened to recreational anglers, who are permitted to catch two per day, until further notice. First Nations fisheries are already allowed to fish for cultural purposes. It’s to be determined when the commercial fishery will open on tidal portions of the

Fraser as well as at the river’s mouth, but the DFO and the Fraser River Panel will meet again on Friday. Water temperatures are a concern for the fishery. As of Tuesday, the river’s temperature at Hope was 19.8 degrees Celsius, 2.2 degrees above average. It’s expected to climb to close to 21 degrees Celsius by the end of the week. Compounding this is the fact the river’s discharge is 16 per cent below average. Such extreme temperatures could increase mortality rates en route to spawning grounds. Catch rates are set at about 65 per cent of estimates. The DFO says weather patterns will determine management adjustments.

A $12.3 million expansion of a city owned and operated geothermal energy project has been approved by Richmond City Council. The Alexandra District Energy Utility (ADEU), that primarily heats and cools condos in the West Cambie neighbourhood, will triple in size by 2018, servicing a total of 10 developments, the largest of which will be a portion of the SmartCentres commercial retail site, home of a planned Walmart. Having already spent $6 million to date, ADEU presently services two developments (Mayfair Place and Remy) with over 600 units and is expected to include a third (Omega) this summer. After the expansion (Phase 3), ADEU is expected to be heating and cooling 2.3 million square feet of residential and commercial space, or about 65 per cent of the full service area upon full completion of the project (this number is expected to fluctuate as buildings go online over the years). In order to expand, a new geo-exchange field and a supplementary building to house equipment and a cooling tower will be constructed in the West Cambie Neighbourhood Park, starting in 2015. ADEU takes water from surrounding buildings and pumps it through underground
pipes, heating it in the winter and cooling it in the summer. The city will borrow the money from its water utility surplus over the next five years. The total investment of $23.3 million should be paid back, in full and with interest, within 19 years; the city charges land owners for the energy at, or below, market rates to service the loans. According to a staff report the city expects to save 9,500 tonnes of greenhouse gases (GHG) over 12 years, when the project is expected to be complete (a typical car today emits 5-9 tonnes of CO2 annually, according to the U.S. Department of Energy). Thereafter, the utility is expected to reduce greenhouse gases by 671 tonnes each year. The city is targeting a 33 per cent reduction in GHG from 2007 levels, by 2020. Other developments included in the Phase 3 expansion are: Alexandra Court; 9500 Cambie; Alexandra Gate; Jingon; Polygon East and the Jamatkhana Temple. The project was phased in to accommodate development in the neighbourhood. ADEU is a sort of precursor for a much larger geothermal district energy project in the City Centre, which will have a total capital investment of $142 million and be operated and financed by a partner. The report notes ADEU could eventually implement a sewer heating system.

Richmond lagging behind in shelter for homeless Graeme Wood
Staff Reporter gwood@richmond-news.com
Thirty-eight homeless people were counted in Richmond this year, representing just one per cent of Metro Vancouver’s homeless population, which has remained steady over the past six years. Among all the municipalities surveyed, the city has the second fewest shelter, safe house and transition house spaces. Richmond’s numbers decreased from 49 in 2011 and 56 in 2008, according to the Greater Vancouver Regional Steering Committee on Homelessness, which Aug. 1 released its final 2014 tallies from its region-wide 24-hour survey conducted last March. The survey is done every three years. The count is an underestimate of the homeless population, however. Although volunteers surveyed 2,777 “visible” homeless people, it is estimated 5,900 individuals will experience homelessness over the course of 2014. “The number of homeless people identified in homeless counts in the region has remained fairly stable
since 2008,” stated the report. Men represented about three quarters of all homeless people, although the report notes women are likely undercounted as they are more likely to be staying with family and friends or in unsafe situations, rather than accessing typical homeless services or walking the streets. Children and youth (under age 25) represented 20 per cent of the count. And while Aboriginal people represent two per cent of the region’s population, they account for about 20 per cent of the total homeless count. Low income and high rents were the most common reasons for being homeless and about one-third of respondents reported a mental illness. It was found that about 80 per cent of homeless people tend to be relatively stationary, living in the community they were interviewed in for at least one year. One-third of those surveyed had no shelter; the proportion of sheltered homeless declined from 71 to 66 per cent over the past three

In Richmond, there were two youth found homeless with shelter. A total of 11 homeless seniors (over age 55) were found, seven of whom were unsheltered. Six unsheltered people with Aboriginal identity were also found. According to the survey, the city has just two shelters with a total of
g rowin G er! e r e Off We a m i T d Limite
20 beds: Nova Transition House and Richmond House (Salvation Army). A temporary extreme-weather shelter exists at St.Alban’s Anglican Church. With only 20 beds surveyed, Richmond lags far behind municipalities of similar size and population; Burnaby has 47 beds.
604.526.2888
Only Port Coquitlam, a city onequarter the population of Richmond, has fewer beds at 15. The survey is used to address questions surrounding homelessness such as, how people become homeless, what services are available to them and where they tend to end up living.

Ahoy there, mateys
Half court fun in sun
Enchanting mermaids, marauding pirates and other maritime creatures will feature at this year’s Richmond Maritime Festival, which starts Friday and runs through Sunday at the Britannia Shipyards, National Historic Site. They will be joined this year by Rikki the Rat, a “scabrous shipyard denizen” who will share tales of life on the edges of the historic Steveston waterfront. Festivalgoers will also be entertained by live music, roving performers, visual artists, stilt walkers, puppets, storytellers, dancers and more. Children of all ages will learn local lore, and try their hand at a unique variety of arts and crafts, from creating a driftwood
mandala to knitting a tree cosy. There will also be lots of food and drink vendors. Celebrating its 125th anniversary, Britannia Shipyard’s heritage features include a 190-metre long (600-foot) dock, where a flotilla of beautiful and historic boats and ships will be available for viewing and boarding. This year’s festival will run three full days from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily from Friday, Aug. 8. to Sunday, Aug. 10. Opening night of the festival will feature an outdoor evening concert featuring the roots blues, zydeco, swamp pop and folk sounds of the Swamp Dogs For more details, visit the festival website at www.richmondmaritimefestival.ca.

The basketball action is going to heat up under the summer sun today (Wednesday) and Thursday at the West Richmond Community Centre where an inaugural three-on-three tournament for youth takes to the outdoor courts Aug. 6 and 7. The event is a mid-season celebration of the West Richmond Summerslam Basketball League and is intended to foster a love for pick-up, schoolyard games, said Gabriel Lee, the program’s coordinator. “We wanted to encourage the participants to be active for life and enjoy the half-
court game they can play with their friends outdoors in their own school yards,” said Lee, adding the event is for students in Grades 4 to 12. Roughly 450 players take part in the summer league. Games on the two outdoor courts will run from 4 - 8 p.m. on both days. Helping get the three-on-three action off the ground is some support from local businesses. Lee said he has had help from SaveOn-Foods in Terra Nova with supplying barbecue items, and the Pita Pit which will sponsor a player of the game award. If this year’s tournament is a success, Lee said there could be another next year.

EDITORIAL OPINION
Prison blues
C
anada is safe. The last time crime rates were this low the Post-It hadn’t been invented and The Beatles were together. So why are the Conservatives spearheading a multi-billion dollar prison expansion? The Tories seem determined to convince Canadians they don’t feel safe and facts be damned. Besides the obligatory opposition from the NDP and Liberals, the idea of prisons solving problems got a scathing review in Texas. Not too long ago, Texas was locking up more criminals
than Canada ever could — approximately five per cent of the adult population — but it was never enough. Eventually, the Lone Star state took money earmarked for even more prisons and invested in mental health and drug treatment. A budget crisis was averted, the incarceration rate fell and the crime rate plunged. The union representing Canadian prison guards has also dug in its heels against the expansion. Prisons have become more crowded and dangerous, for both prisoners and guards, despite a decade of declining
crime rates. Part of the reason is that rather than focusing on rehabilitation or prevention, the ruling Conservatives favour longer sentences while chopping pay for working prisoners and reducing access to libraries. Longer sentences have only ever resulted in higher recidivism rates. Surely, the way to combat that trend is not to put more poor and poorly educated excons on the street. Every Canadian should feel safe these days — except maybe the ones in prison.

Yet again, it’s Fraser Health that gets the brunt of the hatred, not the province. Yet again, a regional authority is administering a provincial responsibility, and not doing a terribly good job of it. How about education? Well, here we have a system of school boards that goes back to the start of the province. And of course, municipal governments have to plan neighbourhoods. And between the two of them, they make informed guesses about how many more students are coming… and then they have to wait until existing schools are groaning under massive overcapacity before the

Don’t worry, the lack of air conditioning will help you and your teachers sweat off a couple of pounds come next June! All of these local and regional systems are children of the province. Victoria’s control of the money remains nearly complete. Here in the suburbs, from Maple Ridge to the South of the Fraser, we’re seeing massive growth. People are moving here in droves. And our hospitals date back decades, our bus service is stalled, and we haven’t seen extended SkyTrain service since the 1990s. We don’t need another reorganization of TransLink or consultation with local school districts. We need Victoria to take responsibility for the future of B.C. Because the outer suburbs are the future of B.C. Matthew Claxton is a reporter with the Langley Advance.

EDUCATION
TREES
You can’t eat money The Editor, Several residents have expressed concern about the cavalier destruction of old trees to make room for parking lots and monster houses in Richmond. Here are some thoughts about trees by those who have a way with words: “Only when the last tree has died and the last river been poisoned and the last fish caught will
we realize that we cannot eat money.” (Native American Cree proverb) “God has cared for these trees, saved them from drought, disease, avalanches, and a thousand tempests and floods. But he cannot save them from fools.” (John Muir) Sabine Eiche Richmond
CRUELTY
Shooting injured racoon not cool The Editor, Recently, a group of teenage boys on Vinmore Road near Francis Road in west Richmond did an unspeakable thing. They chased a limping racoon and shot at him with pellet guns in broad daylight. It was a deliberate action. They drove by on their bikes, saw him, went home, got the guns, came back on foot, and hunted him down in our front yard, where he felt safe. He was a sitting duck. The boys, when questioned what they were doing, said that the raccoon, struggling to get around because of his wounded feet, was “a nuisance.” The whole thing makes me sick to my stomach. This letter is to the boys, and also to their parents, because we know that raccoon as a neighbourhood friend. Sweet natured, respectful to pets, and no trouble, he has sometimes slept on our back porch and has been around long enough that we call him “Harry.” Dear boys: We want you to know that we think YOU are a nuisance. What you
did is illegal and immoral. Ask your friends and your girlfriends what they think, and don’t expect to have any more friends or girlfriends. No-one in their right mind will want to hang out with you. You definitely don’t need to ask your neighbours what they think — if you read this far, you know now that we think. You should be ashamed, embarrassed and punished. You just don’t measure up as human. Dear parents of the boys: You need to keep a tighter rein on your children, out causing havoc and harming innocent wild creatures, intentionally, on a public street. I am writing in hopes that you see this and take away the pellet guns and dispose of them permanently. Boys, in closing, we want you to understand that we like the raccoons far more than we like you. It is definitely not okay what you did, and it will come back on you, in some way, some how. The world works like that. Brenda Clark Richmond

the Nk’ Mip Talon ($23). Named for the spirit of the Thunderbird, it represents the legendary bird’s power and strength. Made from six different red grapes: Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Malbec, and Pinot Noir, there’s a rich colour and a bouquet of black currant, vanilla, hints of chocolate and coffee. “The Talon is made to be very soft, approachable, and more drinkable than many dry tannic reds,” Hall explained. After a lychee sorbet, we tucked in to the Carver’s surf and turf. Here was a Fraser Valley chicken breast and Salt Spring Island goat cheese with spinach, mozzarella with an artichoke zucchini pie and truffle jus. And that was half the plate! The surf half was a pan-roasted halibut with a mascarpone asparagus seafood risotto and a red pepper emulsion. The halibut was crispy, yet moist in the centre and it was probably the best halibut I have tasted. The pairing wine was the N Nk’ Mip 2012 Pinot Noir ($22). Hall explained,
“Pinot noir should be more about delicacy and finesse and it had this and succulent flavours of black cherry and plum. Perfecto with the lighter flavoured surf and turf!” And if that wasn’t enough, there was one more main: Angus beef filet mignon, jeera hash, sesame gai lan, with veal port wine reduction and balsamic essence. Chef Manuel Carganilla Jr. makes a point of combining western protein with Asian flavours and ingredients in his fusion cuisine. To match all of this, Hall uncorked an astounding Nk’Mip Qwam Qwmt 2011 Cabernet Sauvignon ($30). Although it was a rich red with layers of enchanting aromas and flavours and a silky texture, winemaker Hall said it was not perfect. The Osoyoos Band does not have a word for perfection. I was thrilled with its black cherry and cassis fruit, the vanilla, chocolate, coffee undertones, all spiced with hints of cloves and cinnamon. If it’s not perfect, it was certainly close to perfection. Tasting the filet and then sipping the wine really brought out more complexity in the wine. The only minor criticism was that the curried jeerah hash had too much spice,

The Editor, Recently, there has been some strong, negative opinions regarding the proposed location of a new off-leash, fenced dog park in South Arm. However, it is important to consider that there are many residents of the South Arm area who believe that a dog park would be a great addition to the area. Off-leash dog parks are a very effective way for owners to let their dogs exercise and socialize in a safe environment. Those against the dog park say that the proposed South Arm area is not the right place for a dog park for a variety of reasons. However, as a dog owner and local resident of South Arm for nearly 20 years, I am in favour of the location. The area being considered is in the centre of South Arm park. This is the perfect location; an area too small and uneven for any sports field, but certainly satisfactory for a dog. Being in the middle of the park, the location is far from busy roads and most homes, which minimizes both danger from traffic and any complaints of doggy noises. There have been concerns that the dog park will ruin the “serenity” of the park. South Arm already contains a large playground, a community centre, a swimming pool, basketball and tennis courts, soccer fields, baseball diamonds, and both an elementary and a high school. The entire park is constantly buzzing with children, athletes, and students. This is a recreational park. It is a place that the entire community (including dogs) can come together for fresh air and exercise in an increasingly urban city. One cannot live next to a public park and expect silence. I want there to be a safe place to play for every member of my family. This includes my dog. I urge the public to support the designated location in South Arm Park.

which overshadowed the cab’s brilliance. The finishing touch to the gastronomic odyssey was dessert. How does Carvers’ Chocolate Cookie Jar sound? I was caught with my spoon in that jar and revelled in its chocolate ice cream, caramel, nuts, chocolate chips, and chunks of turtle cheesecake. And to wash it down, an Nk’Mip Riesling Ice Wine ($60). B.C. wine guru John Schreiner gave this wine a perfect score of 100. Hall said, “For every litre of ice wine, you lose eight litres of water. Making wine from frozen grapes is a very difficult process, but the end result is absolutely delicious.” I agree! The golden ice wine had a heavenly bouquet and concentrated flavours of baked apple, apricot and honey. Although it was high in sugar, it was not sickly sweet. The refreshing acidity kept the wine well balanced. My thanks to Justin Hall, of Nk’Mip Cellars, Michael Hajdukovich, maitre’d, Manuel Carganilla Jr., chef, and the entire staff of Carver’s Steakhouse in Richmond for night to remember!

hat do you get when you combine North America’s first aboriginal winery with a classy steakhouse? An evening to savour and remember with six gourmet courses, each accompanied by a delicious Okanagan wine. Carver’s Steakhouse was the Richmond setting for this gourmet extravaganza when it recently hosted the Nk’ Mip Winemaker’s Dinner. On hand to guide the sell-out group through the evening was Justin Hall, a member of the Osoyoos Indian band and assistant winemaker at the winery. We began our gastronomical adventure with an Nk’ Mip 2012 Pinot Blanc ($16) and a Spicy Tuna Martini. Pinot blanc, is a dry white with an aroma and flavour of pineapple, peach, and pear. It was delicious to enjoy before the meal and with the seared albacore tuna with its Thai rice salad, citrus, jalapeno and sesame oil. While the rare tuna had some bold flavours, it was all balanced and it brought out the fruitiness in our wine. Next was a tender cinnamon-cumin braised chuck flat with goat cheese, grilled peach, and a rhubarb raita. This was enjoyed with

Summer reads include cats, pirates and a snowman It may be the dog days of summer, but the reading is easy. These three youngsters involved with the Richmond Public Library’s Summer Reading Club are certainly proving that. Here are some impressions from a trio of keen readers who tell
us about what they have been reading. Title: The Amazing Story of Adolphus Tips Reviewed by: Cecilia Soroco Age: 11 This book is about Lily,
a little girl describing her life during the Second World War when her cat, Tips, has gone missing into an out-ofbounds shooting area. Lily makes
Cecilia Soroco
friends with Adie, an American soldier who promised to look for Tips until he found her, which he did, until Tips disappears again. I like this book because it is full of fun adventure and surprise. It comes with many emotions and describes in great detail

Title: Hostage Three Reviewed by: Sam Xu Sam Xu Age: 11 This book is about Amy, a 17-year-old girl who never planned on spending her summer sailing around the world in a yacht with her dad and stepmother. One day, the yacht was boarded by pirates. They take Jocelyn Ly them hostage and demand a ransom. I like this book because it has a lot of detail and I liked that the author did a good job of explaining how, in some countries, piracy has become everyday life for them. I think this is a really
good book and I would recommend this to anyone who likes to read fiction. Title: Frozen Reviewed by: Jocelyn Ly Age: 7 This book is about two sisters that didn’t spend any time together. Elsa had a very special gift; she could make ice with just her hands! Soon it was time for Elsa to be queen. I like this book because the actors are very talented and the animation pictures are awesome. Actually, people say the animation picture is number one. The picture is very detailed too. Lots of expressions and lots of singing like Do you want to be a snowman?, Let it Go, For the First Time in Forever, and In Summer.

THEPULSE WE’VE GOT OUR FINGERS ON IT SWORDPLAY AND HORSES
Would-be knights on horseback took part in Academie Duello’s School of Modern Swordplay and mounted combat program, called Cavaliere Sunday at Red Colt Equestrian Farm Co-op in Steveston. The event, marking the school’s 10th anniversary, had students try their hand at swinging a sword from a stationary position on a ‘wooden mount’ and then on the real thing as they were led around the arena. Instructors Chris Richardson and Jennifer Landels (right) of Academie Duello also had time to show their stuff. Photos by Gord Goble/Special to the News

Rapids make a splash at Age Group Nationals Standout Nicolaas Dekker also tunes up for upcoming Junior Pan Ams in Maui with medal at Senior Nationals Eleven members of the Richmond Rapids Swim Club recently competed at the Canadian Age Group Championships in Winnipeg. The vast majority of the team was under 16 and many were making their debut at the five-day national competition. Adrian Hsing, Rich Rakchtis, David Ng, Michael Ge, Dini McIver, Max Schaffler, Amanda McCallum, and Ethan Chan were all competing at Age Group Nationals for the first time. McIver, having recently achieved the requisite three time standards to attend the meet, was seeded well outside the top eight. Her primary goal was to finish in the top 16, with a dream of making a finals swim. She did exactly that on two consecutive days in both breaststroke sprint events. In a meet where many of her competitors were losing their cool and adding time, McIver displayed impressive composure, going best times in every event. It was this intensity and pure racing enjoyment that proved her qualification was no fluke, and McIver was indeed worthy of her two top-five finishes. Her results in finals put her very near to Western National qualifications. McIver also set club records in both events. McCallum, had the best meet of her young career. Coming off a stellar showing at provincials, McCallum was in much harsher circumstances, having to race girls up to a year older than her. Despite this, she made four of seven finals, and was the top 11year-old in the country in all four. Her 100 and 200 meter backstroke swims placed fourth for 12-andunders, earning Western qualifications in the process. With a time of 2:27.04, McCallum’s 200-meter backstroke was not only a club record, but also the fastest for any 11-year-old girl in Canada in the last decade. Xue, the most senior of the team, showed the result
of years of dedicated work. She finished sixth and fourth in the 100 and 200 meter breaststroke, respectively, moving up as many as 20 spots from her initial seed to make finals. Xue also significantly improved both club records. Her crowing achievement came during the 200 breaststroke. Even though she was out-touched for fourth place in the event, Xue was still fast enough to achieve her first Senior National time standard. This came after close misses in the 50 and 100 meter breaststroke, ending a string of frustratingly close performances. The relief on her face was unmistakable. The group netted 15 finals over the week, with Hsing catching his first ever in the 50 freestyle. He finished eighth and dropped nearly a second off his previous best time, qualifying for Western Nationals in the process. Jerry Liu also produced finals swims, finishing in the top eight for three separate events and just missing the podium in the 100 fly. David Ng made his first national final in the 50 breast, re-setting his own club record in the process. Kevin Ye was again strong in the breaststroke events, qualifying for finals in both the 100 and 200 meter races. The final Rapids swim of the meet was the boys 15&U 4x100 medley relay. After Schaffler, Ye, and Liu gave anchor Adrian Hsing a strong position for second, the 14-year-old again stepped up for his teammates, dropping a lifetime best relay leg to hold off a charging Montreal team for silver, the Rapid’s highest finish of the meet. The four boys set Open class relay club records in both the 4x100 medley and 4x100 free relays. Among the inaugurals of the week was the Rapids firstever representative official at Age Group Nationals. Dawna McIver sat for several sessions as a primary timer for both prelims and finals. Nicolaas Dekker, a new
member of the Canadian Junior National team, competed the week before at Senior Nationals. In his biggest contest prior to this month’s Junior Pan Pacific Championships in Maui, Dekker claimed his firstever senior national medal, a bronze in the 100 meter butterfly. Dekker will race both this and the 200 fly for Canada at Pan Ams. Finally, the team would like to thank Gina McCallum, who solely served chaperone duties for the duration of the week.
Richmond Rapids’ 15 and under 4x100 medley relay team of Max Schaffler, Adrian Hsing, Kevin Ye and Jerry Liu captured silver at Swim Canada’s Age Group Nationals in Winnipeg.

Richmond City Chuckers’ outstanding season ended in heartbreaking fashion at B.C. Minor Baseball’s Pee Wee AAA Provincial Championships on the weekend in Cloverdale. The Chuckers’ bid for a B.C. title concluded with an 8-7 loss to eventual champion Abbotsford on Sunday morning. Richmond had reached the final four by going 3-1 in roundrobin play, capped by a 19-2 rout of Aldergrove on Saturday afternoon. The locals had opened the championships with an 8-5 loss to Vancouver Minor before climbing back into contention with wins over Victoria Black (8-5) and host Cloverdale (3-2). Abbotsford went on to defeat Cloverdale 12-8 in the championship game. The victory over Aldergrove saw Richmond explode for seven runs in the second inning to take control. The Chuckers entered the provincials with an impressive 12-1 record in summer league all-star play. Coached by Scott Lunny, with assistants Derek Howells and Jordan Thorseinson, the Chuckers line-up includes: Peter Broderick, Reid Dawson, Ethan Hong, Duke Howells, Andrew Loat, Dustin McElwain, Jonathan McGill, Josh Moscovitz, Hiroki Sato, Gabriel Suessenbacher-Fu, Justin Thorsteinson and Montaro Uyeyama. Meanwhile, the Pee Wee AA Chuckers couldn’t recover from a tough start at the AA provincials in Port Coquitlam. Richmond dropped a 12-1 decision in its opener to eventual finalist Duncan, then were edged by Chilliwack (3-2) and Abbotsford (5-2) before closing out round-robin play with a 14-6 setback to Prince George. The boys had earned their spot in the championships with a solid 8-3 record in Lower Mainland All-Star League qualifying play.
