CRIME

Man arrested in SkyTrain attack Cayley Dobie

cdobie@newwestrecord.ca

A 27-year-old Coquitlam man has been arrested in connection to an attack at New Westminster SkyTrain station.

The suspect, who is well known to police but whose name has not been released, was identified by a member of the public who recognized him from media coverage.Transit Police released a surveillance video of an attack that happened at the New Westminster SkyTrain station on April 6.

The footage shows a woman bumping into a man while running for a train. After missing her train, she and the man exchange words, and, as the woman turns away, the man throws his coffee at her.

She turns around to confront him, and he pushes her, causing her to fall to the ground and hit her head on the platform.

Ten days after the footage was released to the public, police located and arrested a suspect in a Coquitlam hotel.The man was released on a promise to appear.

A charge of assault has been recommended. His first court appearance is scheduled for July 11.

New West residents keeping heritage alive tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

A number of New Westminster residents are using heritage revitalization agreements to retain heritage – and help them change their homes to meet today’s needs.

A Heritage Revitalization Agreement is a voluntary deal between a property owner and the city. It allows the city to provide non-financial incentives that make it viable for owners to conserve homes with heritage merit and provide longterm protection of those homes.

In recent weeks, New Westminster city council has approved heritage revitalization agreements for a number of local properties, including: " 224 Sixth Ave.: An HRA will allow the lot to be subdivided, with a new twostorey house with a basement suite being built on a new lot to the east of the existing house.The applicant will restore and designate the existing 1937 Makepeace House, which will be moved forward on the west lot, and include a secondary suite in the basement and an addition at the rear of the house.

" 312 Fifth St.:The owners will enlarge the existing 1897 William Townsend Residence, lift it and move it forward on the lot and build a laneway house at the rear of the property. In exchange, the owners will fully restore the heritage house and protect it through a heritage designation bylaw. " 306 Gilley St.:The applicant will build an infill duplex in exchange for restoration of the existing 1916 Nellie Mercer cottage, which is considered to be significant for its construction history and its social association with “a New-

foundlander community” that settled this part of the Brow of the Hill neighbourhood at the turn of the century.The duplex would contain two stratified three-bedroom homes and the existing house will receive long-term protection through a heritage designation bylaw. " 318 Fifth St.:The owner will build a 1,623 square foot laneway/infill house, in exchange for restoring and providing longterm legal protection of the 1908 John and Adelaide Jardine House. As part of the HRA, the homeowners have agreed to restore all

of the home’s existing vinyl window frames with woodframe windows.

“I don’t like the idea of (people) saying there isn’t a heritage win here because instead of windows being replaced today, windows are going to be replaced at someday in the future in the next 10 years,” said Coun. Patrick Johnstone.

“The heritage win here is the preservation of a house which is not currently protected by law.”

Coun. Mary Trentadue agreed it’s “fair and reasonable” to give the homeowners 10 years to replace the windows.

“I appreciate having a laneway home on this property,” she said. “I think that’s hugely important in Queen’s Park.”

Coun. Jaimie McEvoy said he’s willing to suspend his “usual skepticism” about promises of work to be done, as the homeowners have a good track record of doing work on their heritage home and have spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on their home through the years.

“I do believe you,” he said. “I think it is up to the city on our side to make sure we have the mechanism to follow up.”

Friendly landlords help former foster youth

Friendly Landlord Network is designed to offer supports for landlords and renters, and house youth in need Theresa McManus

tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

If you think it’s tough to find affordable rental accommodations in Metro Vancouver, just try finding housing if you’re a youth who is transitioning out of foster care.

Aunt Leah’s Place started the Friendly Landlord Network as a way of helping foster youth find rental housing after they age out of care. In addition to compiling a listing of rental accommodations willing to house youth who are leaving foster care, the program provides ongoing supports such as monthly check-ins and financial support to ensure tenants pay their rent on time.

“It has helped us find safe and affordable housing, where we are now able to thrive and connect with our community,” said Ronda Merrill-Parkin, a single mother of two children. “I feel confident in my everyday life, and I don’t have to feel insecure about not having a place to call our own.”

Merrill-Parkin said the program is important because it enables youth who may not have references or credit to make connections with landlords.

Christina Grammenos, community engagement coordinator with New Westminster-based Aunt Leah’s Place, said about 700 youth age out of care every year in B.C. She said statistics show that nearly 300 individuals are expected to age out in the Ministry of Children and Family Development’s North Fraser district, which includes New Westminster and Burnaby, in the coming years.

“The most important thing is that youth are finding housing, which is incredible,” Grammenos said of the program. “We wish

the numbers were higher.We wish more landlords were offering opportunities.

Understanding the rental market, I guess it is not that surprising.”

Since getting underway two years ago, the program has helped house or rehouse about 20 young people.

“We try to make it as easy and supportive as possible, so we have housing workers who are able to do monthly check-ins and be the person to call should anything come up,” Grammenos said. “But we are also looking for people who want to be part of the solution to youth homelessness and make a difference for young people who don’t have the same advantages as their parents and peers.”

While it’s challenging for people of all ages to find housing in Metro Vancouver, Grammenos said it can be even more difficult for young people who don’t have a credit history, may not have references, are competing with young professionals or families with stable jobs or have been in government care.

“Generally, youth face a few more barriers if they are coming from care than the average person might face,” she said. “To start with, Canadians in general are staying at home longer and longer.”

According to Statistics Canada’s 2016 Census, 62.6 per cent of Canadians aged 20 to 24 lived with their parents. Among those aged 20 to 34 years, 34.7 per cent lived with their parents.

While it’s taking longer for young Canadians to get on their feet and live on their own, that’s often not an option for youth who age out of government care at 19, Grammenos said.

“At 19, they can’t necessarily go back to live with

A PLACE OF THEIR OWN: Ronda Merrill-Parkin cried when she learned she would find housing for herself and her children eightmonth-old Nairen and three-year-old Sajay through the Friendly Landlord Network. PHOTO JENNIFER GAUTHIER

their parents, because that wasn’t an option,” she said.

“They are having to make it on their own, and at the same time figure out their career, figure out a way of supporting themselves and all of that.”

Patrice Impey’s grown children were able to live at home until they were ready to move out on their own, but that’s not always the case for youth who have been in foster care.The Vancouver resident provided short-term housing through the program when her daughter moved.

“One of the benefits is they take care of all the work – they came and took pictures, put it on their website, told me how much was a reasonable rent.They really organized the whole thing.They found the ten-

ant and got to know her,” Impey said. “It worked out really well.We didn’t have any issues, but they said if there were any problems, you could contact the land-

They are having to make it on their own lord network, so it makes it super easy for people who aren’t normally in the business of renting.They did a great job.”

Because Impey’s goal wasn’t to make money by renting out the small apartment in her home, she was pleased to rent it to someone through the Friendly Landlord Network.

“You are not going to ask for regular market rent – you are going to be at the lower end because that is who your clientele is, but that is fine for many people.You are doing it because you want somebody to be able to utilize the space. It is very hard to find places to rent in Vancouver – certainly if you don’t have a credit rating, are a young person, don’t have a job or are in school,” she said. “It’s just a really terrific program because they provide the support to the landlord and the tenant.You can’t get much better than that.”

The Friendly Landlord Network in always in need of landlords who have studio or one- or two-bedroom apartments or suites they’re willing to rent out to young people involved in the pro-

gram.

“They (landlords) do appreciate the fact that it’s not like we are trying to make a connection and then walk away.What we are trying to do is provide ongoing support,” Grammenos said.

“The check-ins and having someone to call is not something that the present market would provide – you are just taking a gamble based on your best guess, a credit check or that kind of thing.

I am sure that landlords out there generally say part of it is luck in terms of whether you have a good tenant or not, but at least in this scenario you have someone who can support you through and understand the tenancy process if you need help navigating that.”

Survey works to pinpoint numbers of homeless youth Theresa McManus

tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

Metro Vancouver is trying to get a more accurate picture of the number of youth who are homeless.

Last month, the region conducted its first ever Youth Homelessness Count from April 4 to 12, conducting anonymous surveys at youth centres, high schools,

shelters and other youthserving organizations.The 2018 youth homeless count has three main goals: " To collect accurate data on the number of homeless youth in the region so government agencies and organizations are able to provide appropriate policies and services. " To understand the causes and condition that

lead to youth homelessness in Metro Vancouver. " To raise awareness of the incidence and issues of youth homelessness and to demonstrate the need for enhanced government supports and solutions.

Christina Grammenos, community engagement coordinator with Aunt Leah’s Place, said the count hopes to get a more accurate of

the number of youth who are homeless, some who may be missed in the general homeless count.

“Shelters, they tend to be less comfortable places for young people.They just feel less safe.There is more reliance on couch surfing and sleeping rough,” she said.

“Part of what we are trying to do with this youth homelessness count is not rely

specifically at a point-intime count.”

Grammenos said it’s hoped that getting more accurate numbers about the number of homeless youth will help build public awareness and lead to changes and increased funding to address the issue. She said it’s also hoped it could spur people who might have rental suites to get involved

with the Friendly Landlord Network.

A 2015 survey by the Canadian Observatory on Homelessness’s national youth homeless strategy found that nearly 60 per cent of homeless youth had previous or current involvement with child welfare.

Opinion OUR VIEW

Remind grads there’s no such thing as ‘good’ drugs

The B.C. government recently sent out a news release asking people to not buy alcohol for minors celebrating during grad party season.

The release was almost quaint in its reminder of a time when the big concern for youth was people buying booze for kids standing outside of the liquor store.

If only that was still the biggest worry about teenagers. Instead, we’re in a time when people really need to be warned to have hard, de-

tailed conversations with teens about the drugs they will be offered during this hard-partying season.

Why? Because what teens think is in the drugs they are being offered isn’t actually in them.

According to the Globe and Mail, the B.C. Centre of Substance Use tried out an infrared spectrometer so people could check out what’s in their drugs. Of the “1,714 substances tested, 39 per cent contained the drug the client expect-

Show them the numbers. Tell them the people dying come from all walks of life. ed … 88 per cent contained fentanyl.”

Fentanyl is one of the substances to blame for the skyrocketing body count due to drug overdoses.

A total of 161 people – the equivalent of more than five a day – died of suspect-

ed overdoses on drugs like heroin, cocaine, MDMA, methamphetamine and illicit fentanyl in B.C. in March, according to the B.C. Coroners Service.

That’s an increase of 24 per cent from last March’s 130 deaths and a 58-per-

cent spike over February’s suspected total of 102.

Looking at the first three months of 2018, the coroners service says fentanyl was detected in post-mortem testing in more than eight in every 10 deaths (83 per cent).

Seven in every 10 people who died were aged 19 to 49 years, but suspected illicit drug overdoses have also already claimed the lives of five people between the ages of 10 and 18 this year.

Last year, 23 kids under

the age of 18 died of overdoses. So, sure, warn your kids about drinking and driving, and don’t buy minors alcohol, no matter how innocent they look outside of the liquor store.

But keep the dialogue going with your teens about drugs. Show them the numbers.Tell them the people dying come from all walks of life.Tell them it doesn’t matter if the person offering them drugs is a “good” person – they don’t really know what’s in that pill.

A healthy dose of RCH love

They didn’t tell me her name and I couldn’t speak to her, but I could tell she’s a fighter.

She clenched her impossibly tiny fist and stretched twig-like legs that were wrapped in a sort of splint so her bones wouldn’t break.

Her chest moved up and down at a rapid rate as she fought for each breath.

This is what happens when you’re born at 22 weeks.

I met this fighter during a tour of Royal Columbian Hospital in New Westminster, which has a neonatal intensive care unit that has some of the best survival rates in the country. Since starting the editor’s job a few weeks ago, I’ve been slowly meeting people from different local organizations to introduce myself and discover new story ideas.

I doubt any of my tours will be as emotional as visiting the NICU. Nothing makes you forget about petty problems quite like watching a premature baby cling to life.Thankfully, the RCH Foundation has been there to raise money.

Premature babies at RCH benefit from the latest in climate-controlled incubators, which is where they live as they slowly grow stronger.

The foundation, however, doesn’t stop there.The money it raises purchases equipment for other hospital areas that is often several steps above what the province is willing to fund.

That technology is one of the reasons why RCH’s cardiac care centre is one of the busiest in the province, and the fourth busiest in Cana-

da – because it’s known to be one of the best. For example, the cardiac centre is one of only two in Canada with a significantly lower than average 30-day in-hospital mortality rate after angioplasty.

I already knew how special RCH was because when my daughter’s mom was pregnant, we had to travel from Maple Ridge for regular visits to the gestational diabetes clinic.

I’m not sure how many people realize this, but RCH isn’t just for New Westminster residents. In fact, only 19 per cent of its patients are from its home community. A whopping 35 per cent come from the Tri-Cities, 14 per cent from Surrey and 13 per cent from Burnaby. RCH serves 1.8 million people in total, from Burnaby to Boston Bar. It’s also the city’s largest employer, with 3,300 staff and 450 physicians.

Last year, the province announced a $1.35-billion, three-phase expansion, with the 75-bed mental health and substance use wellness centre already under construction.This expansion is a catalyst for a City of New Westminster economic strategy called IDEA Centre that will transform the surrounding area.

So big things are happening for this regional hospital now and in the future.You can be a part of it by donating to the foundation. And if you need a little extra motivation to do so, just think of the little fighter. I know I will.

Liquor trouble in Paradise Under-age and after-hours drinking got one of the city’s problem nightclubs in hot water in April. Club Paradise at 27 Church St. lost its liquor licence for four days for violations witnessed by police.

NWPD said a 17-year-old had been found drunk inside the club and was taken to police cells for her own protection. Officers had also witnessed patrons being allowed back in to drink after closing time. The club management waived its right to a liquor licensing branch hearing to address the violations and accepted the suspension instead.

Letters Arts strategy too ‘vague’ Editor: Re: New West arts strategy ‘not fully baked,’ The Record, May 17 I agree with the main points of this article. My main concern is the focus of the document on business and arts service organizations. The fact that the lead entity on this file is the “arts services department” speaks volumes. I would like a more active role for the arts council in this process on an ongoing basis, and a more serious attempt to consult with working artists on a strategy that will have direct impact on their livelihoods.

Another problem is a feeling that the document contains information transferred from a spreadsheet to bullet points throughout the “strategic priorities” section, rather than it being the result of a planning process with an editor’s eye on the result. There are vague vision statements throughout that could apply to any city, but no coherent directives are articulated, other than rather obvious fair-minded observations about inclusiveness and consultation, etc. Even the “supporting actions” are a mess and could not be “actioned” by staff due to redundancies.

What is the purpose of an arts strategy document? Such a document should create action items that city staff can understand and implement to create an environment in the city in which the arts thrive. All the content in such a document should contribute to this goal.

Here is an example of an opening paragraph that I would like to see: “We want to create a city where the artist and their work is visible and viable. The creative artist is at the core of our arts strategy.”

If the city did that, all the other benefits they spend many words putting into their document would simply flow from a process guided by this principle.

Stop these renovictions Editor: Re: Rally protests renovictions, The Record, May 17 My mother has lived in that building for almost 30 years and at one time actually managed the building. Now at 83 she is being forced to move.

Luckily our family was able to find her a place to go, unlike some of the other tenants who haven’t been able to find anything affordable. This should not be happening to these people or anyone for that matter. The tenants you spoke to in the article are absolutely right – this is all about greed, at the very least. If a renovation has to occur, which is understandable because a lot of the rentals in New Westminster are getting older, tenants should have the option of coming back to the same building at the same rent, and rents should be increased to current market rates through future vacancies.

I’m sure a lot of the people wouldn’t return just because of the hassle of moving twice, and then the greedy owners could start raking in their cash almost as quickly as they are now. When the NDP were elected they said they would do something to protect people, and we are all still waiting for that. I’m sure it would not be hard to pass legislation to protect renters in this province, and I hope they do so or they are going to lose a lot of votes.

Community Grant approved to manage city assets

New Westminster is getting a grant to help it better manage civic assets.

The Federation of Canadian Municipalities and the Government of Canada recently announced more than $30 million for 50 initiatives across Canada through two programs – the Municipal Asset Management Program and the Green Municipal Fund. New Westminster has received $50,000 for asset management training through the Municipal Asset Management Program, FMC’s new five-year, $50-million asset management program that’s designed to help Canadian municipalities

make informed infrastructure investments decisions based on sound assetmanagement practices.

Eugene Wat, city manager of infrastructure planning, said New Westminster is in the second generation of its corporate asset management program.

He said the city is compiling a detailed inventory of its various infrastructure and building decision tools to help inform maintenance, rehabilitation and replacement in accordance to a coordinated asset management framework.

The project under the asset management program includes two essential

steps toward implementing asset management at all levels in the city: ! Develop formal asset management training tools and programs to educate and equip asset management managers across different departments.

These asset management managers become “trainers” or “champions” within their department. ! Provide computerized maintenance management system training to frontline operations staff. This will help to transition the city’s current manual/paperwork order system to an automated computerized system.

CRIME

‘Love’ scammer extorts $70K Cayley Dobie

cdobie@newwestrecord.ca

Love really is blind, and one resident learned that lesson the hard way, according to the New Westminster Police Department.

Police say a New Westminster resident lost thousands in an online dating scam. She had been communicating with someone on a dating website. As it turns out, the online sweetheart was using a fake identity, but the scam wasn’t revealed until after the resident sent an estimated $70,000 overseas to the suspect after he asked for help with his business, according to a police press release.

“These fraudsters will go to great lengths to gain your trust,” said NewWestminster police spokesperson Sgt. Jeff Scott in the release. “You think you’ve found the person you’ve been looking for, you’re in love, and unfortunately at that time you’re extremely vulnerable.”

Some red flags to watch for include: not wanting to meet in person (often the scammer will have many ex-

cuses to avoid this); professing their love before meeting; a vague online profile; and requesting to move the conversation from the dating site to personal email, according to Scott.

New Westminster police are reminding residents not to send money to people they’ve never met in person and to be careful about how much personal information is shared online, especially on social media sites.

“Scammers can use your information and pictures to create a fake identity or to target you with a scam,” notes the release.

Anyone who suspects they have been the victim of fraud or may have been tricked into giving personal information or money to someone is asked to contact the New Westminster Police Department at 604525-5411.

OTHER SCAMS TO WATCH FOR: Bitcoin tax scam Some scammers have been known to contact people demanding the virtual currency Bitcoin, according to the New Westminster Po-

lice Department.

The scammers call pretending to be employees of Canada Revenue Agency.The scammers then tell the person on the other end that they have overdue taxes and if they don’t pay immediately they will be arrested.

That’s when they demand payment in Bitcoin, according to police.

Police are reminding residents the Canada Revenue Agency does not accept payment in Bitcoin, it doesn’t arrest people for outstanding taxes and it doesn’t contact people by phone.

Canada Revenue Agency scam Last year, New Westminster residents lost more than $50,000 to scammers posing as CRA employees, according to the police department.The scammers pose as revenue agency employees and demand the person on the other pay any unpaid taxes immediately.

The suspects are able to manipulate their phone numbers so it looks like they’re calling from CRA, too.

Heritage homes tour takes on an eclectic vibe Theresa McManus

tmcmanus@newwestrecord.ca

The 2018 rendition of the New Westminster Heritage Homes Tour will please traditionalists and offer some surprises along the way.

The 39th annual tour features an eclectic lineup of homes including an Arthur Erickson-inspired mid-century home in Massey Heights and a Victorian-era cottage in Queen’s Park.

“For New Westminster, this brings people to our city who perhaps haven’t been here before. My husband and I came to our first tour in 1988, and we purchased our house in 1989. It’s an introduction,” said Katherine Hutson of the New Westminster Heritage Preservation Society. “Plus, it’s such a positive, feel-good experience. It’s one huge open house, which appeals to lookyloos.”

Hutson is thrilled with the offerings in this year’s tour, which includes homes in several neighbourhoods and from a variety of eras, including a 1975 home in Sapperton.

“It is future heritage,” Hutson said. “I think if you were to talk to the heritage planner of New Westminster, that whole concept of heritage houses is fluid – it’s 50 years.Technically, in a few years that will be heritage. Heritage is more than the built heritage that

people think of when you think of the heritage society.”

While some people may scratch their heads about including a 1975 house on the tour, Hutson said it’s an example of housing built in that neighbourhood at a particular time in the city’s development.

“Nothing has been demolished,” Hutson said of the house.

“The homeowner has brought new life to that house. She has kept it and made it her own.”

The homes included in this year’s event are indicative of a shift in direction of the tour, which is set to morph into an eclectic homes tour following next year’s 40th anniversary celebration.

“We are really going to celebrate homes from the past – I think people will enjoy that – but that will mark the end of the traditional homes tour, and we will probably do more eclectic tours,” Hutson said. “We are thinking we need to include more homes and more buildings that are of interest to all people. I do know to excite people about ‘heritage’ you have to expand it. Heritage is history and heritage is people and heritage is buildings, and that is what we are going to try to do – look forward.”

Folks who are interested in renovation and décor will be sure to find some great ideas on this year’s

tour, which includes a 1951 home with a new retro diner-style kitchen, a 1880s to 1900s home (due to an expansion) that showcases its current owner’s collections and garden, and a 1964/65 bungalow that was once owned by the current owner’s grandma.

“A grandson bought his grandma’s house – and what they did with it is amazing,” she said. “It’s beautifully designed, it’s very modern inside, but they kept the façade and it’s grandma’s house.”

In addition to homes, three units in Arundel Mansions, a sixstorey commercial and residential building on Begbie Street, are also opening their doors on this year’s tour – including a unit that’s got a “distressed” vibe and is sometimes used for filming. Irving House Museum, the oldest house in the Lower Mainland, is also featured on the tour.

In commemoration of this year’s 100th anniversary of the end of the First World War, the tour will honour young men from New

Westminster who served in the war.The Royal Westminster Regiment Museum will be open from 9 a.m. to noon on tour day so people can view artifacts from the city’s military history, and two of the homes on the tour will pay tribute to some of the local residents who served in the First World War. The New Westminster Heritage Homes Tour is on Sunday, May

27 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.Tickets are $35 or $25 for members of the New Westminster Heritage Preservation Society and are available online at www.newwest heritage.org or at Royal City Colours (700 12th St.), Champagne Taste (1102 Royal Ave.), New Westminster Museum and Archives in Anvil Centre (777 Columbia St.) or GardenWorks Mandeville (4746 Marine Dr.)

TEAM

Since its inception, the Hyack Festival Association has been working to enrich the community of New Westminster and beyond through world-class festivals in which the community can participate and take pride.

The greatest impact that our events have is building the “Spirit of Community” and providing free entertainment and engagement that is truly inclusive, intergenerational, diverse and multicultural.

Throughout the year, we organize events and projects that generate this community spirit including the Hyack Festival, which culminates with the International Parade and Uptown Street Fest!, and we produce the Canada Day Fireworks, the Hyack Leadership Ambassador Program, and the Royal City Show & Shine just to name a few.

These events could not take place without the generous support of funders and sponsors- like the City of New Westminster, Global BC, Kinman and Associates, Key West Ford, The New Westminster Record Newspaper and Quay Pacific– and certainly would not be possible without the countless hours and selfless dedication of volunteers including our Board of Directors, our Past Presidents, our committee members and many other friends and supporters that provide invaluable help at a moments notice. This year our float, recently unveiled in front of the steps of City Hall, and with

May 21st -27th, 2018

FESTIVAL

A Parade and its history Seventy-six trombones led the big parade / With a hundred and ten cornets close behind / They were followed by rows and rows of the finest virtuos- / Os, the cream of ev’ry famous band.

–“The Music Man” by Meredith Willson

BY: RICK MOLSTAD

Who doesn’t love a parade??? Everyone loves a parade!! And the Hyack International Parade, sponsored by Global BC and Key West Ford, among others, is a fun, free spectacle to be watched and enjoyed by the whole family, young and old (the youngat-heart!) alike.

Parades have long been held in New Westminster since the mid-1800s, celebrating any auspicious occasion, such as the arrival of ships with settlers, May Day, civic events, etc. Early parades featured the Hyack Fire Brigade’s vehicle, “The Fire King”, suitably dressed-up for the occasion. The Fire King’s “engine” had zero horsepower…… it was pulled by the members of the Hyack Fire Brigade wherever it went, either to a fire or a May Day celebration. Parades have continued to draw families and friends to our Royal City from neighbouring communities and the United States throughout the past century, and hopefully will continue into the future as well. Since the 1970s, the parade has been known as the Hyack International Parade, organized by volunteers of the Hyack Festival Association with the support of the City of New Westminster. This

is the 47th year of this festive event.

This year’s theme for the Hyack Festival Association is “Rooted in Tradition……

Blossoming into the Future” as created by current Hyack President, Bryn Ward. Hyack Festival’s spectacular award-winning float is merely amazing, celebrating what New Westminster has been, and what it will be in years to come. The most important theme is the sense of community that exists in our City.

The parade has drawn a wide variety of entries. The Vancouver Police Department Motorcycle Drill Team will precede the parade proper at 10:30 on 6th Street from 8th Avenue (if roadways are dry), performing crowd-pleasing manoeuvres on their “bikes” requiring precision and coordination. As one young spectator remarked last year, “Motorcycles are awesome!” Large bands from local and US high schools will march in their distinctive uniforms, playing familiar tunes (and maybe some Sousa??).

Magnificently decorated floats from local groups, communities and as far away as Leavenworth, Washington and Portland, Oregon are in town to help us celebrate our Hyack Festival Week. And of course

Celebrating 36 years in June!

ENJOY THE 47TH ANNUAL HYACK FESTIVAL!

there will be dignitaries, including Miss New Westminster, Talia Monno and the Hyack Ambassadors.

As a special treat, we are welcoming back the Seattle Seafair Pirates, whose appearance is generously sponsored by Kinman & Associates. Long-time spectators will recall years ago the “pirates and wenches” dressed

in costume riding their pirate ship, the “Moby Duck” with the frequent blast of a cannon to rattle the windows of surrounding buildings, setting off car alarms.

So come out early and stake out your place at the curb on the parade route, to ensure you don’t miss any of the exciting action!!

FESTIVAL President’s Message Making a DREAM into a FLOAT

It is my absolute honour and privilege to extend a warm welcome to all our friends, family, citizens, guests and Festival Friends from throughout BC and the Pacific Northwest as the New Westminster Hyack Festival Association celebrates its 47th year in 2018.

I am eternally grateful to have had the amazing opportunity to raise my daughter, Shane, Hyack President: Bryn Ward (Hyack Princess 2016), in our Royal City: New Westminster. Named by Queen Victoria after her favourite part of London and once the capital of mainland BC, it is a magical city, rich in heritage and culture that encourages us to blossom, take root and grow. Hence this year’s “I believe in tradition; I believe theme: “Rooted in Tradiin the idea of things being passed tion… Blossoming into the Future” It has been between generations and the incredible to see our slow transmissions of cultural New Westminster Hyack values through tradition” Ambassadors, who are –Graham Moore our future leaders, blossom into confident and well-spoken young ladies by “Serving Our Community - Representing Our City”. The marriage of tradition and modernization makes New Westminster a very unique and special place indeed! WELCOME! We look forward to seeing you at our Hyack Festival.

Interview with Gord Kelleway – Gary Turner Display Ltd. BY: DIANA SMITH

It’s not every day you get to talk to a professional parade float maker.

Recently, I had the pleasure of talking with Gord Kelleway- the lead float maker for Hyack Festival Association, and co-owner of Gary Turner Display Ltd. alongside his wife, Kelli. He’s been creating extraordinary floats for our Hyack Festival for over three-quarters of his career: one can confidently say that because of him, our float has a consistent international recognition and wins many awards Gord has been building floats for the Hyack Festival Association for 25 years to be exact! With this much time under his belt, he definitely has some fun stories: “I think one of the most exciting floats is when we went to the electric chassis. When we went to the electric chassis it was really groundbreaking for us because they were pilot. Hyack agreed to go along with us and we would help them out with it, and we put a huge staircase on that and turned it into a royal float and when it arrived in Tacoma for its first parade and its debut, everyone came to look because there’s this float moving

across, not making a sound. There is no engine, no exhaust, no fumes or anything, and it’s just moving and everyone is thinking “who’s pushing this?” or “is someone towing it? How is this thing moving?” which was kind of very exciting for us because there are so many regulations with parade floats, and the Hyack (Festival) went along with that, and they were kind of our experimental guinea pig. But we worked along with them- they have a unique float, it’s one of the only ones that we’ve stretched to 26 feet. Just because of their trailer, so that’s one that really sticks out.”

How exactly does someone get into the parade float-making industry? It seems like such a niche artistic career, it’s easy to assume that it would be the kind of job you’re born into or inherit. Can someone just wake up one day and become a float maker? Well, if you ask Gord Kelleway, you can in fact do just that.

When asked how his career of float making began, Gord takes you way back; back to a time when he worked for Shell Canada and thought he was going to be a paramedic one day.

It was when Shell Canada wanted a

parade float for their travels when Gord met Gary Turner- the creator of Gary Turner Display Ltd. “I was a summer student for Shell Canada and Gary Turner Display built a parade float for us to travel. And that is how I met Gary Turner and from then on I was working with Shall Canada and would cross paths with Gary. Shell was sending me back East and I liked B.C. too much and I ran into Gary Turner another time and he offered me a position. And that’s how I ended up getting into it, and he was looking into retirement and a partner and my wife and I bought the company off of him. So I’ve been doing it for close to 30 years now!”

What makes Gord such an interesting artist is that, in the time leading up to his eventual career in float making, he did not consider himself an artist by any regard.

“No, I was not [an artist], and to this day I cannot draw. I can’t draw, a fantastic tracer, but I can put drawings to the 3-dimensional, I can sculpt, make metal frameworks, put a vision and that’s where my artistic ability comes in. I can make others’ visions come to life.” /continued on page 24

The skills that he picked up working in the trades, and his upbringing with his father’s passion for the mechanics of buildings and trains, taught him the skills that are necessary for their team to create such phenomenal work.

“When I got into the float building, and the creativeness- Gary Turner was a fantastic designer, and had a hard team and everything else but I added my ability to turn their drawings into something 3-dimensional.

So, I had the ability, with welding and construction and electrical and all those things that I brought to the table, and we made a really good team here.”

The best part of his job, Gord says, is that no two days are alike, and he never knows who their next client is going to be. In his own words, “Every day is different.

We don’t know- we do movie rentals,

they film movies here, we do Christmas décor, we do Halloween, we do parade floats for a lot of municipalities, and for Pride parade. So, everyday-like today, we get a call for an interview or something. It’s something that every day is different when you

come in.” Hearing the pride in his voice made me realize how much he truly loves his job. So, I wanted to know his professional opinion: what makes a

float great? All floats are not created equal, and Gord knows this better than anyone from being in the industry for three decades.

“What makes a great float is excitement from the crowd. It’s kids’ faces, that is when you know you’ve got an award winner, one that the (Parade) marshal will love, that’s what makes a great float; is when you can do that, and have impact, people are staring at your float or want to see your float.

Crowd pleasers are the fun ones- we always say, you have to go one your knees, and be about 3 feet tall, and look at it and see if it excites you.

That’s what we do with our Santa setswe build Santa sets. It’s basically, go one your knees, look up at it, and does it thrill you? You look at it as an adult you don’t- you have to have the kid in you.” Gord, is not the sole creator and builder of floats at Gary Turner Display Ltd. Behind every amazing float is an equally amazing team. Gord emphasized that Gary Turner Display’s team has 3 main keys that keep the business a-float (pun intended). Alongside Gord is, of course, his wife Kelli, as well as their business partner, Doug Miller.

Without them, he says, the floats would not be able to make it off the ground.

“It’s a team. Everything here is a team, it’s not me, it’s everyone putting in their flavour into everything that we do.”

A Presidential Float Shopping List

They say it takes a Village to raise a child, well it took a whole bunch of extremely talented WWW.ETSY.COM artisans from across the globe, to create unique items for my vision of this year’s Hyack Festival Association theme: Rooted in Tradition...

Blossoming into the Future. I began with our creative pin & logo designer Mel Draper, a New Westminster painter that has an Etsy shop called LalasArtWorld, see article on page 00.

Then I sourced out wooden float signs designed by the lovely Cheryl Westercamp from MyPrimitiveBoutique, round light up Dogwood tree marquees by Anjanette Cline of AmericanVintage Inc I got silk floral decorations by the extraordinary Stefy G. owner of Flowears, and finally, our Miss New Westminster, Hyack Princess & 2018 Ambassadors beautiful lace gloves were by Kim of ChantillyAvenue and many other creative Etsy shop owners.

Gabriele, Etsy shop: Arabescque. Her motto is, “TO BE WELL DRESSED IS A LITTLE LIKE BEING IN LOVE. My dresses - celebration of joy, happiness and exclusivity...”

For the Grande Finale... our Ambassadors’ gowns, I was so grateful to find the most wonderfully gifted master seamstress who created dresses that are everything I ever wished for and as beautiful as I had dreamed.

My deepest thanks and gratitude to all of these incredible women for their enthusiasm & designs for this important project: our Hyack Festival association 2018 theme and parade float!

Meet the Hyack Festival 2018 Honourary Parade Marshall

Christoph von Riedemann

Our 2018 Honourary Parade Marshal, Christoph von Riedemann, remembers watching the Hyack International Parade as a boy. One year he participated in the parade as a boy scout. Because these are memories he cherishes, he is deeply honoured to be the Parade Marshall of the 47th Hyack International Parade, with the theme “Rooted in tradition, Blossoming into the Future”.

Christoph was born and raised in New Westminster. He trained to become a dancer at Arts Umbrella Dance Company in Vancouver and has been a member of Ballet BC for the last four years. Dancing is his passion.

Christoph participated in the Banff Summer Dance Program, the Nederlands Dans Theater Summer Intensive and the Movement Invention Project in New York before graduating. He is an accomplished and dedicated artist. On July 11-14th 2018, he will be dancing in the Vancouver festival, “Dancing on the Edge.

You can also see him performing a solo in a show called, The Dance Deck, on Commercial Drive on the last two weekends of August.

Art, Nature and the pursuit of Heritage INTERVIEW WITH: ARTIST MEL PORKAY Mel Porkay is the local artist that helped create the symbol of this year’s Hyack Festival Theme. We asked her a few questions to get insight on her creative process, her art and her love for New Westminster.

“Bryn Ward’s vision was about creating a warm, natural design that honoured the history of New Westminster.

She wanted to incorporate a dogwood tree and use its colours as a basis for the design.

My style often uses natural and historical elements so it felt like a good fit. It was a good challenge to bring together aspects of the previous lapels and the dogwood tree.

Inspiration, for me, is strongest when I am feeling close with nature. I enjoy the combination of colours and textures in flowers. Nature can make the most strange things look beautiful. Animals also have these traits in their fur and feathers. I’m fascinated by the

subtle differences in their appearances. The world can be playful and whimsical if you look and I try to capture that essence in my work.

I became interested in visual art at a very early age. My grandfather, Martin Porkay, was an expert in old masters paintings and was an art director for one of the last silent movies ever made. He wrote books about his life and the artists he met along the way. Reading these books ignited an interest in the performance and visual arts in the early 20th century.

My art is a modern re-imagining of a very glamorous and exciting time. I love to bring colour and my own vintage-gothic style to the era.

My favourite area of New Westminster is Queens Park. The restored 100 year old houses are so beautiful. I love the ornate details on the homes, it feels a bit like a fairy tale. My husband and I were married in New Westminster in 2013 have lived here for almost 3 years. We enjoy working on our garden and building my art business. Our dream is to one day own a heritage home in the Queens Park area.”

Great floats come in small packages…

THERESA HENRY-SMITH, DIC MINI FLOAT

“I’ve got something special in mind for you,” said this year’s Hyack president, Bryn Ward, in a mysterious way when she invited me to join the board of directors for 2018 last fall.

So when I attended our first board meeting in January, it was with curiosity and some trepidation that I discovered that she wanted me to take charge of the Mini-Float Committee. “A mini-float? What’s that?” I asked. It seemed to be a rather interesting but odd thing to me at that moment. Well, I soon found out.

First the cool part: I was being asked to design an actual float! With my art background this seemed very intriguing. Working with Bryn’s theme of Rooted in Tradition...

Blossoming into the Future, I decided it would be perfect to incorporate her emblem of a dogwood tree. Can’t go wrong with a pink flowering dogwood tree I figure; such a lovely image. Lucky for me, we already had a skirt-shaped frame for the float. By a skirtshaped frame I mean a frame shaped like a big skirt that fits neatly over a golf cart and then a real live princess pokes out of it (and waves) from the top. Kind of like Mother Ginger from the Nutcracker. So I began to do sketches right away. That part was extra fun.

Then the hard part: the frame was sitting in a warehouse in Portland, Oregon -the city where we will be showcasing our float in Portland’s fabulous Grand Floral Parade

Theresa Henry-Smith working on the mini-float

on June 9th. I also learned that, in keeping with the floral theme of the parade, that the mini float has to be entirely covered in fresh flowers and other organic-only materials.

That means it can only be decorated the day before the parade. Talk about pressure! Fortunately, for me, we have, at Hyack, a fabulous couple I like to call Team Wardle aka, Alan and Debbie. The Wardles have overseen the mini-float over the previous two years and have been instrumental in helping me figure out how things are done. The first thing we had to do was get our float’s golf cart, which the Wardles had been storing in their own garage, down to Portland. For reasons of time constraints, we needed to bring it down in March rather than in June.

Thank goodness, my husband already had a large trailer he used for fishing trips. So my husband and I stuck the golf cart in the trailer and headed down to Portland for the St Patrick’s Day weekend.

May Day Community Heritage Picnic Pack a picnic basket, wear your spring bonnet and bring a smile for the New Westminster MAY DAY COMMUNITY HERITAGE PICNIC Sunday, May 27 2018 - 2 pm - 4 pm at The Armoury of The Royal Westminster Regiment The Royal City comes together for the fourth annual New Westminster MAY DAY COMMUNITY HERITAGE PICNIC in the historic Armoury, Canada’s oldest active wooden Armoury!

“Lift your spirits” as we embrace the rich 148 year history and traditions of May Days current and past! Our picnic marks the finale of the May Day Week and is the wrap up event for the 47th annual Hyack Festival in New Westminster!

The picnic recreates in a small way, the early beginnings of May Day 1870 when citizens of all ages gathered to welcome spring and build community spirit for the disheartened citizens at that time. Highlights of the afternoon include the performance by both 2017 & 2018 May Queen Suites and the Royal Lancers of the traditional century-old Lancer “quadrille” dances as well as the Royal Knight Honour Guard, sharing interesting May Day trivia. Come clap your hands and join the enthusiasm!

Celebrate the rich history and traditions of May Day in the Royal City as adults, youth and seniors join together for a fun day of positive community building! A good old fashioned indoor picnic for children and those “young at heart!” Bring a smile and be prepared to have some light-hearted fun!

their all-day workshop on how to decorate our beautiful floral float but they also hosted us in their own home over the weekend and on top of that offered to store the golf cart for us till June.

Everything was coming up roses!

Since our visit in March, the Wardles have also been down to Portland to help prep the skirt.

It had a rice-coating that needed to be re-stripped. Not an easy process, I tell you. But they have made excellent progress and we now have the beginnings of the dogwood tree design I sketched out in January.

I am now getting very excited about the mini-float. The flowers have been ordered and I am looking forward to heading back down to Portland in June to decorate it. I will be thankfully joined by Team Wardle, Hyack President, Bryn Ward, and a couple other handy Hyack Directors. Portland’s Grand Floral Parade is an impressive spectacle of colour and design and I am so honoured to be playing a small Shane Ward, Hyack Princess 2016 on the 2016 Mini Float part of it on behalf of the Hyack Festival Association and the City In Portland, we were greeted by the Miniof New Westminster.

After speeches and voting by their peers during February, two Grade 5 representatives from each school had been selected to represent their school. Watched anxiously by candidates, parents, families, community dignitaries and City Council, the excitement built at the May Day draw until the final school was selected.

Royal Suite Coordinator and Master of Ceremonies, Col Karen Baker-MacGrotty, HCol, stated “In 1870, May Day was created to cheer up the disheartened citizens of the day and has continued annually to welcome the coming of spring, to boost community pride and spirit! This annual celebration has been enjoyed by hundreds of thousands of participants and spectators throughout the years. May Day evolved along the way with new things introduced, changes of venue and various activities to reflect the times, yet when you look back, the essence of the day, the core fundamentals and traditional components remain relatively unchanged.” Key www.edwardjones.com elements including crowing of the May Queen, an honour guard of boys, children dancing around May Poles, festivities of music and dance, fun and games, teas and We support Hyack Festival May banquets, picnic Day Tea & Heritage Picnic. and Royal Lancer N.

”In the early years, the May Queen procession would wind its way through the streets, first in a horse drawn carriage then by automobiles. Now, during our Hyack Festival International Parade, our Royal Suites enjoy waiving to the thousands of cheering spectators from an antique trolley.

Through good times and hard years, through the great depression and two world wars, over almost a century and a half, generation after generation of Royal City citizens have ensured our May Day traditions continue.” Hyack Festival Association is pleased to help continue these traditions for the 148th New Westminster May Day! Keep an eye out for our Royal Suites wearing the traditional May Day attire during the Hyack Festival International Parade on Saturday, May 27th and at various events throughout the city! They are easy to spot…..the May Queen Suites donning their white dresses, robes and crowns and the Royal Knights in the traditional red vests, blue bow ties and cummerbunds.

Miss New Westminster 2018

Talia Monno was crowned Miss New Westminster 2018 at the Evening of Stars awards gala, held at the Laura C. Muir Performing Arts Theatre at Douglas College on Saturday night. Along with being named Miss New Westminster, Monno received the James Daniel Cartwright Diamond Award, the $1,000 Hyack scholarship, the Top Communicator Award and the Top Essay Award.

Talia is the daughter of Benedetto Monno and Kimberly Nezezon and is the proud big sister of her forever best friend, Daniella Monno. She has been part of her high school cheerleading team and Boswell Dance Academy, as well as a part of many organizations as an active volunteer.

Talia has also received honour roll certificates every year for her consistent straight “A’s” and also received an Honesty Award in Grade Nine. She also enjoys dancing, swimming, baking, listening to music, watching movies, writing and spending time with friends and family. In her spare time, Talia likes to challenge her sister to a very intense game of UNO. After graduation, Talia plans to attend university and start her path toward the medical field.

Talia’s favourite TV show is Riverdale and

her favourite movie is The Greatest Showman. Her favourite song is “God’s Plan” by Drake and her favourite book is Milk and Honey by Rupi Kaur. She is inspired by DISNEY because every movie has its own lesson on life represented through the stories of the characters. DISNEY taught her that everything is going to be okay. Talia’s most treasured keepsake is her collection of stuffed giraffes because of her beauty marks that resemble the spots on her favourite animal.

Talia’s favourite thing to do in the Royal City, besides the Hyack Festival, is spending time being a role model and coach for our City’s youth in the Royal City Hyack Cheerleading Program. Talia’s proudest moment in her life so far is when she was accepted into the Hyack Ambassador Leadership Program and when her cheer team became international champions. If Talia could trade place with anyone it would be Martin Luther King Jr. because his words made history. Even though he was killed he still changed the world with his perseverance and she would be hon-

oured to be him for a day. Talia believes she would make a good Hyack Ambassador because of her self-confidence, focus and integrity. She puts her heart into everything she does and has a desire to be someone our City’s youth can look up to.

What is this Hyack Ambassador Leadership Program anyway?

It’s an AMAZING opportunity for the youth in our city – that’s what!!! age and motivate the Ambassadors to continue serving in our community by becoming the future leaders of tomorrow.

What if Dave and Morley’s adventures weren’t quite so G-rated?

HappySad Theatre is bringing its hit from the 2017 Vancouver Fringe, Sex? But I’m Canadian! to the stage at the Heritage Grill for the Way Off-Broadway Wednesdays series on May 30.

HappySad Theatre is Nico Dicecco and Kyle Carpenter, two “reformed academics” who now write and perform plays.Their new outing – formerly titled 50 Shades of Dave – was a runaway hit at the 2017 Vancouver Fringe Festival and is bound for Winnipeg, Montreal, Regina and Saskatoon this summer.

“Our top priority, next to honouring the spirit of TheVinyl Café, was to offer a sex-positive portrait of Dave and Morley,” Dicecco said in a press release. “We worked really hard to shape the stories so that they are celebrations of sexuality and human connection, even when Dave is causing calamity in the bedroom.”

Entertainment Ukrainian dance show at Douglas Lovers of Ukrainian dance don’t need to travel far to enjoy a cultural extravaganza.

Kvitka Ukrainian School of Dance is bringing its spring concert to the stage at the Laura C. Muir Performing Arts Theatre at Douglas College.The show is onstage Sunday, May 27 at 6 p.m.

erwise might be lost,” says a write-up on the school’s website. “We feel this is a fun way for them to stay connected to a piece of their culture and we hope to sustain and to maintain our Ukrainian culture in our community.”

Everyone is invited to check out the concert.

Douglas College is at 700 Royal Ave., New West.The theatre is on the fourth floor north.

Tickets can be purchased at the door, $10 per person (free for five and under).

Arts & Entertainment Artist responds to TRACE New Media Gallery is inviting a singer-artist in to respond to the ongoing TRACE exhibition.

Carol Sawyer will be on hand at the gallery on Saturday, May 26 for the fifth in an ongoing series of experimental, multidisciplinary exhibition responses in and around the gallery.

Sawyer is an accomplished Vancouver-based visual artist and singer who works in photography, vid-

eo, installation and improvised music. Since the early ’90s, her work has been concerned with the connections between photography and fiction, performance, memory and history.

For this performance, she’ll explore her response to TRACE, an exhibition that’s concerned with drawing and representation and that explores the relationships developing between human makers and technol-

ogies. Sawyer is responding primarily to Human Study No. 1 – 5RNP, by Patrick Tresset, and Modulateur-Démodulatuer, by Arnauld Colcomb and Bertrand Planes.

Her performance will run from 3 to 4 p.m. It’s free, but space is limited, so arrive early and bring along a cushion.

New Media Gallery is at Anvil Centre, 777 Columbia St. For info email contact@newmediagallery.ca.

IN THE LIBRARY

Chat with friends and learn English Stephanie Crosbie

editorial@newwestrecord.ca

One of the pleasures of my job as a librarian at New Westminster Public Library is helping to oversee our volunteer-led, drop-in ESL Conversation Circles. Our circles have been operating for over nine years and we work in partnership with Family Services of Greater Vancouver to produce the program.

On Friday and Saturday mornings, English learners who want to improve their conversation skills can make community connections and practise speaking Eng-

lish in an informal, fun way.

As the library is undergoing a renovation, the circles are currently meeting off-site.The Friday group is women-only and meets from 10:30 a.m. to noon at the New Westminster Family Services office at 321 Sixth St. At the Saturday circles, both men and women can attend.The group meets at Century House on the first and third Saturdays of the month at 620 Eighth St. in Moody Park. And we have recently added the Anvil Centre as another site for the second, fourth and fifth Saturdays of the month.

I am always inspired by the diversity of our participants. Many of our attendees have lived in Canada for some time, while others are new to Canada. Our banner has more than 50 flags representing the home countries of our participants.

The circles are an opportunity for international students, residents, grandparents, visitors, retirees and refugees to join together to discuss and learn about Canadian traditions, holidays and community events.

Our resourceful, empathic and energetic volunteers keep the program going.

Each week, they prepare

conversation topic lists and games to encourage and assist our participants.We are grateful for their dedication and commitment.

We currently have enough English-speaking volunteers but are always looking for new participants. If you would like to practise English or know someone who does, please join us.

For more information, email AskUs@nwpl.ca or call 604-527-4666.To confirm the dates, visit the library for a handout or check the Events and Programs link at nwpl.ca.

Kelvin also won the title of “Most Engaged School” with eight classes participating and two teachers tweeting daily about their students’ walking adventures – Stephanie Musgrove and Naimah Asad.

Musgrove’s Kindergarten class logged 1,300 minutes while Asad’s class counted 1,480 minutes. And division 19 students also logged more than 1,000 hours.

In all, 21 classes from around the school district took part in the Walk30 challenge.

Season for redemption

NewWest senior ’Bellies begin a new season tonight looking to top last year’s wild run

ON THE RUSH: The New Westminster Salmonbellies bantam B squad rolled over Semiahmoo and put up a 3-1 record in the round robin but didn’t advance to the playoffs due to playoff format. At top left, Alex Krijgsveld fires off a shot while teammate Keyanow Gladue watches; bottom left, New West’s Evin Vowles powers through the middle and gets a faceful of Semiahmoo stick for his troubles. The New West bantam A ’Bellies, meanwhile, went 3-1 and advanced to the playoff round where they were able to avenge their lone loss of the weekend with a 10-6 victory over Comox Valley in the A2 division final. In the A1 division, Ridge Meadows topped Nanaimo 8-2.

The Hub City did claim one crown, with Nanaimo taking the B division title by beating Abbotsford 8-3. In the C division, Chilliwack corralled a 13-5 decision over Surrey.

Hyacks end provincial drought NewWest senior girls topWestVan to secure a spot at the B.C. tourney

Dan Olson

dolson@newwestrecord.ca

A little luck never hurts, but a lot of determination can work wonders.

The New Westminster Hyacks senior girls soccer team served an upset of sorts by knocking off the West Vancouver Highlanders 2-0 last Thursday to earn a berth to the provincial AAA soccer championship tournament at UBC. In a season where fielding a full roster was a challenge at times, the Hyacks elevated their game and were fully in tune with the system coach Wayne McCarthy had installed, showing that their firstround loss to No. 1-ranked Argyle did not crack their foundation.

“Just knowing we had a second chance was a big thing,” remarked striker Nisa Reehal of the 3-0 Argyle loss on May 14. “We really wanted to get to provincials.We didn’t accept the loss to Argyle, we just wanted to keep playing.”

And play they did. Both teams came out cautiously, with West Van getting

turned aside by the Hyack defence. A fortunate break came at the 29-minute mark when the referee called the Highlanders netminder for holding the ball outside the goal box, putting New West captain Georgia Brydon a free kick.

The Grade 12 forward didn’t miss, firing a missile over the defensive line and past the diving keeper for the 1-0 lead.

West Van, which had defeated Burnaby North 5-0 earlier in the week, came out hungry for the equalizer in the second half, but the New West defence held its ground.

While weathering the storm on the defensive side, the Hyacks iced it with 13 minutes left in regulation when Grade 9 striker Sarah Gallant, one minute after entering the game, buried a Brydon pass with a low shot from 18 yards out. “(West Van) was really tough, we really came out wanting to focus on being mostly tight on defence. (After Argyle) we kind of picked up how we had to play, we tried to squeeze the play and kept things to the outside,” said Reehal.

Netminder Alia Homenuke was full marks for the clean sheet, while stellar support was provided by Sarah Forgie, Sonia Sarai and Christine Singh.

“The key was our team defence. Overall they played a strong, disciplined game and when (West Van) pushed forward our players came back,” remarked McCarthy. “We’ll have to play a full-team game (at B.C.s) and get behind the ball.

Everyone is committed to defence.”

For Reehal, who plays high performance soccer with Coastal FC in White Rock, getting the coveted and hardearned berth to the provincials almost came out of the blue.

“It’s definitely really exciting since soccer is never one of (New West’s) strong suits. … I was definitely jumping all around and happy,” she said. “Honestly I didn’t think that we’d get to provincials, but I knew we had a good chance at winning the banner.”

New West opens the tourney at UBC on May 31 against McMath (10:45 a.m.) and North Peace (2:15 p.m.).

Sizing up last year’s mercurial run, fans of the New Westminster Salmonbellies are hoping for a chance to see redemption in 2018.

The Western Lacrosse Association’s playoff champs rode a rollercoaster last fall, capturing the league title and the first two games from Peterborough in the Mann Cup final before a four-game losing skid put the season, and dream, on ice.

Getting back to that national championship will depend on a lot of things yet to be determined, but the one that is guaranteed is the motivation.

“You know that the guys, especially having a 2-0 lead at home, they are (motivated),” remarked New West presIt’s not always ident and general manthe team with ager Dan Richardson. the most money “It just feeds the want to take that next step. and the biggest Whether it’s at home or chips that win. away; I know it’s been a long time since a (western) team has won back east, but it’s not impossible. It can be done.”

The team will look at the regular season, which kicks off tonight (Thursday, 7:30 p.m.) at Queen’s Park Arena against Maple Ridge, as more than a tune-up.The necessity of thriving and surviving the battles in a league etched in parity will be key for any of those playoff and Mann plans.

While change abounds, beginning with the staff of new head coach Rory McDade and assistants Ian Paterson, Darren McEwen and Curtis Palidwor, familiarity will be a part of the picture, too.Two veterans returning after separate sabbaticals – sniper Jordan McBride, and defender Brendan Ranford – are additions that know their way around Queen’s Park.

The team also completed another sibling pairing with the acquisition this week of Jason Jones from Burnaby, surrendering the team’s top pick in the past draft, Nick Jensen, as well as a second and fifth in 2019. He’ll join brother Mitch on the attack.

It will help patch the holes the team has after the retirements of Ian Hawksbee, Shayne Bennett and Clay Richardson, expected absence of injured Joel McCready, and uncertainty surrounding Kevin Crowley, who may come available if the Canadian Lacrosse Association nixes the worlds in July.

McBride missed last year due to work commitments but is fired up to get back on the floor.

“He’s a New West guy who’s been with us for years.

He’s got a fantastic shot, he’s got great moves in front of the net and he’ll go to the dirty areas.We missed him last year in our Mann Cup run,” said the GM. Jones, meanwhile, will team with sibling Mitch and fellow Delta product Logan Schuss to form one of the more dynamic lines.

“We just felt we needed to shore up our left side, even with (Mark) Negrin and (Alberta import Lyndon) Bunio in the picture,” said Richardson. “(Jones) brings a wealth of experience, knows Mitch and Logan and has consistently put up 40 to 50 points a season.”

Jensen had carved out a spot in the New West lineup during training camp but was the price to pay for a top-line talent, Richardson noted.

On the backline, it all begins with the tandem of Alexis Buque and Tye Belanger, who form a great Continued on page 46

’Bellies add to backline

Continued from page 45 one-two punch behind defensive leaders like captain Curtis Hodgson, Mike Messenger, Brett and Reid Mydske, Ranford and second-year import Tony Tremblay.

As a bonus, Justin Goodwin is expected to get clearance with his medical training in Cleveland to play a handful of games, providing another abrasive element to the lineup during the year.

“It’s a very quick, agile defence and (can) push the ball up the floor, but it’s going to help our goaltenders.

The old adage of defence winning championships – we are very happy with what we have in our goaltending and defence,” said Richardson.

Things are in place for the club to weather the absences of Crowley and McCready through the start of the season, although there is no guarantee either will suit up in 2018.

Considering the degree of parity in the league, where the top four teams were separated by just four points,

“Some teams back east are loading up,” he said, referring to Peterborough luring Corey Small from Victoria, “but I always tell our guys that the NewYork Yankees and Boston Red Sox don’t win it every year.

Teams find a way, other teams find a way, either

through team chemistry and good coaching, systems, to win. It’s not always the team with the most money and the biggest chips that win. I just feel that there’s a sense we left some stuff on the table and we need to finish that.”
