TransLink announces 30-40 vehicles a day face towing at South Surrey Park-and-Ride

Poorly parked bus passengers on hook Alex Browne & Sarah Massah Staff Reporters

After several months of warnings and awareness efforts, TransLink and its operating company, Coast Mountain Bus Co., will start towing vehicles that are illegally parked at the South Surrey Park-and-Ride lot.

But some regular users of the park-andride say the measure does not address the principal problem – not enough capacity to

fill the need for the facility in peak ridership periods.

According to a TransLink news release Friday evening, a tow truck parked at the lot during the morning rush hour throughout this week was to serve as a final warning.

And as of June 25, towing will begin.

“With cars double-parked on the roadway, our buses are having difficulty at times getting through safely,” said Tom Fink, Coast

Mountain director of transit service design.

“What’s more, customers who had parked their vehicles legally are returning to find they’re boxed-in. It’s a minority who are creating the problem, and unfortunately, the messages we have communicated so far are not getting through.”

Monday afternoon at the park-and-ride, reaction was mixed about the towing policy.

Rick Cauley, who regularly drops and picks

up his daughter there, said he does not think towing cars will solve the real problem.

“There should be more parking so people don’t have to park illegally,” he said. “If everyone wants to go green, they should make it easier.”

Regular park-and-ride user Ian Goodman said another problem is that use of the lot fluctuates with the seasons. see page 4

SCC reinventing itself

Civic party plans 2014 comeback Kevin Diakiw Black Press

Girl airlifted after near-tragedy in Crescent Beach

Spike launched into student’s leg Nick Greenizan Staff Reporter

A 14-year-old girl was airlifted to hospital from Blackie Spit Friday morning after being struck in the left leg by the spike of a skimboarding bungee device.

The anchor stake apparently became dislodged from the sand once the bungee cord

– which is used to propel skimboarders across the water – was pulled tight.

The injured girl – a White Rock Christian Academy student who was at the beach as part of a school field trip – was watching skimboarders.

“It sounds like it was just an unfortunate accident,” said RCMP spokesperson Curtis Harling.

“She was taken by helicopter, so it’s a serious injury, but she was conscious and breathing.”

Requests for comment from White Rock Christian Academy were unreturned by Peace Arch News press deadline Monday afternoon.

According to a Twitter post from a classmate, the injured girl required 33 stitches to close the wound.

Surrey council’s unelected opposition is already mapping plans for the 2014 municipal election, and will launch a series of public forums starting this month.

The Surrey Civic Coalition (SCC) was shut out from council and won only one seat on the Surrey Board of Education during the 2011 civic election, which saw Mayor Dianne Watts and her Surrey First team sweep council.

To help set its new direction going forward, the SCC is holding a public forum called Transit Matters on June 26 at the City Centre Library.

Gary Robinson The event is a SCC president kickoff for the reinvention of the left-leaning party.

Panelists for Transit Matters include Steve Burke (Surrey Citizens Transportation Initiative), Gavin Davies (VP Canadian Auto Workers), Balbir Mann (Canadian Auto Workers) and Harry Bains, NDP MLA for Surrey-Newton. see page 4

Officers will carry sound-measuring devices to check vehicles for faulty or aftermarket exhaust systems, and may issue fines or inspection orders for those found violating the rules. They’ll also be checking that riders are wearing helmets that meet new motorcycle legislation which came into effect June 1.

“In 2011, White Rock saw five collisions involving motorcycles (ICBC statistics), thankfully none of these fatal, but the difference between a fatal collision and a non-fatal one could be the helmet you are wearing,” Shoihet said.

Safety efforts ramp up With summer just around the corner, White Rock RCMP are stepping up enforcement efforts, targeting aggressive drivers, noisy vehicles and motorcyclists wearing non-compliant helmets.

Const. Janelle Shoihet announced the start of the annual campaign Friday, citing safety of residents and visitors alike as the goal.

In addition to manning speed checkpoints – which, in the past, have clocked drivers travelling at more than 40 km/h over the posted speed limit – police will be enforcing city bylaws and liquor laws, and watching out for distracted and impaired drivers.

news Terry Parr Plaza suggested for ‘hidden gem’ in White Rock

Business groups support honour for Parr Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

An area at the foot of White Rock’s Ash Street walkway may soon bear the name of a longtime community champion, Terry Parr, who died last year.

White Rock council have given unanimous support to having staff review the suggestion, following a presentation last week by representatives of the White Rock South Surrey Community Foundation and Tourism White Rock.

“I would think council would consider

that as a solid recommendation… but there is a process to go through,” Mayor Wayne Baldwin said of naming the site the Terry Parr Plaza.

WRSSCF executive director Debbie Magson described the area – located in the 15500-block of Marine Drive – as “a beautiful, hidden gem” that was adopted by the foundation two years ago.

The site has been the focus of a series of initiatives in recent years, including the Walking on Sunshine tribute footprints project, in which community

members were invited to purchase an engraved footprint to be set into the stairway; and the mosaic art project, which created the image of a setting sun on the steps by cementing tiny, coloured tiles to the risers.

Magson described the idea to honour Parr as part of a “second stage of rejuvenation” of the area.

Betina Albornoz, executive director of Tourism White Rock, said the vision includes insetting chessboardstyle pavers, and making other “general

improvements” that could also drive development in the area.

She described Parr – a longtime White Rock businessman who died May 6, 2011 – as “a community builder and better yet, a community leader. We think, as such, he deserves to be acknowledged.”

Cost of the improvements was not discussed.

Representatives of Semiahmoo Rotary Club and the South Surrey White Rock Chamber of Commerce were also on hand in support of the renaming.

Launch of music festival delayed Alex Browne Staff Reporter

The White Rock International Music Festival has been shelved – for now.

Organizer Janice Savage, of Beyond Scarlett Arts and Entertainment Group, said Monday the inaugural festival, planned for the weekend of July 21-22, has had to be put on hold, “due to the current economic climate and time limitations.”

Savage said she and her team will begin the fundraising and approval process now so that the concept – a free festival which would bring a wide variety of music ranging from rock, pop and jazz to symphonic to a stage adjacent to the white rock – can become a reality by next summer.

“It was a really hard decision – it came down to that we could do a mediocre (event) now or Janice Savage do a really good festival next aims for 2013 year,” Savage said, adding she didn’t want to make the event smaller or move it out of the city.

“It will be even bigger… because we have everything in place, we have a great base. This gives us a chance to get better-funded, and use some more creative fundraising ideas.”

Savage had sought to emphasize acts from outside of the Peninsula, rather than well-known local groups that are already likely to be featured in events before and after the festival, such as Canada Day celebrations and the Spirit of the Sea Festival.

“We had such a great response this year from Australia, the U.S. and across Canada. Everyone seems fine with doing it next year instead – and we’re already receiving applications for 2013.”

South Surrey resident Bill Kitching prepares to untangle an exhausted dolphin from a crab trap line in Semiahmoo Bay June 9.

Couple recounts helping dolphin caught in line days before whale’s death

More worries for marine-life welfare Dan Ferguson Staff Reporter

A few days before a young humpback whale got tangled up in a fishing line and died on White Rock’s beach on June 12, another marine mammal narrowly escaped the same fate.

South Surrey residents Bill and Cheryl Kitching were sailing in the same waters on Saturday, June 9, when they noticed a dolphin had been snagged by a crab trap buoy line.

“We were probably about half a mile west of the pier,” Bill Kitching told Peace Arch News last week after the humpback story broke.

“I saw something black in the water. It looked like it was struggling.”

Kitching, an experienced sailor and 45-year resident of the Semiahmoo Peninsula, thought it might be a mud shark.

When the couple came about for closer look, they realized it was a dolphin, about 4½ feet long, that had become entangled in the buoy line.

“It was clearly exhausted,” Bill Kitching said.

So exhausted that he was able to pull the dol-

“The rope was wrapped around the dolphin’s tail probably 10 times,” Kitching said.

There were obvious signs of chafing to indicate the dolphin had been trying to get free for some time.

“It could have been there a couple of days,”

he said.

Cheryl Kitching said the dolphin seemed to be in a state of shock.

“We were concerned about whether he would survive or not as he seemed very worn out,” she said.

The couple returned to the scene several times in the hours after the release, and each time the dolphin seemed to be getting a little stronger.

Finally it “just kind of floated away,” Bill Kitching said.

The couple high-fived each other.

“We felt good about that,” he said.

The buoy that the dolphin got tangled up in wasn’t properly marked, suggesting it was an illicit trap.

Fisheries and Oceans regulations state all buoys attached to “recreational shellfish traps” must be clearly marked with the operator’s name in printed solid black capital letters at least 75 millimetres high.

If they aren’t, the DFO may remove them from the water.

Riders critical over lack of parking from page 1 “They need more parking,” he said. “It’s not too bad in the summer, but when it’s September, it’s crazy.”

A young mother, who asked not to be identified, said she had little sympathy for those who break the rules.

“I hate people who doublepark,” she said. “They’re so annoying.”

Online comments on Facebook and Twitter were not positive.

“What hypocrisy!” wrote James Tanner. “…when people actually do start to carpool and take transit these same political parasites offer no place for us to park our cars.”

Natalie Saunders called it “a clear demonstration that there is not much planning being done by the corporations and governments.”

“So people finally give in to

SCC from page 1 Service providers, such as TransLink or Coast Mountain Bus Company, were not invited.

“TransLink and Coast Mountain could probably come and tell us what they want us to think, but we want to find out what the public thinks,” said SCC president Gary Robinson, a former veteran Surrey councillor.

To the critics who might say the forums are tilted to one side, Robinson doesn’t disagree.

“As a matter of fact, it is one-sided, it’s the side that’s not represented at this point when it comes to transportation,” Robinson said. “(That side) needs a voice some place, and we’re going to provide an opportunity for a voice for the people who work and who use it and the people who need it.”

Transit Matters will be followed by Environment Matters, Education Matters and Bylaws Matters, all issues identified

by SCC heading into the next civic election.

“It’s all encompassed on Surrey Matters,” Robinson said. “It’s about SCC getting out into the public and offering the public an opportunity to be heard.”

Transit Matters will be held in a room on the second floor of the library that seats 65 people. If the forums are a success, Robinson said future meetings will be held in a larger venue.

After the last election, Robinson said SCC is reinventing itself, perhaps even considering a new name.

“If you put it under one umbrella – Surrey Matters – that sounds like a good name,” he said.

Transit Matters will be held 6:30-8:30 p.m.

the pressure, and then can’t park because the park and ride locations are full and won’t be expanded,” wrote Michelle Stoetzel, adding, “South Surrey is a major pivot point for those who live there, and TransLink again demonstrates their shortsightedness in planning for the future.”

“Translink is just flat out broken,” wrote Garret Ralston.

Paul Wittal called the situation a “mess,” but said it shows TransLink is “providing viable transit” and should spend more on parkand-ride lots.

“Give them the funding to expand,” agreed Daniel Carreira.

Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts weighed in on Twitter to point out the city lacks power over the park-and -ride lots.

“We give them $164 million per year & no input into how it is spent,” Watts posted.

“Would love for it to go to expansion of transit!”

Since October 2011, TransLink and CMBC have been placing leaflets on windshields, asking customers not to park illegally.

TransLink also painted yellow curbs, put up warning signs and placed notices in the shelters.

Those efforts reduced the number of illegally parked vehicles from a high of about 90 per day to between 30 and 40.

That is still too many, Fink says, which is why the tow trucks are being called in.

“This is not a decision we wanted to make, but for the sake of our customers’ safety and operational efficiency, we’re left with no choice.

“We are actively pursuing ways of accommodating more people, but at this time we are not able to expand the lot any further.”

Rob Verhnjak’s 17-foot trailer was stolen on Thursday, ruining vacation plans.

Canadian Cancer Society White Rock/South Surrey

Thieves make off with trailer

9th Annual Relay For Life – Friday, June 22nd, 2012 at Centennial Park

A South Surrey family’s weekend vacation plans were dashed Thursday morning, after thieves made off with their 17-foot travel trailer.

“It sucks, it’s just a really big drag,” said Rod Verhnjak, owner of Verhnjak Pianos, from where the 1999 white Trail Lite trailer was taken.

“It had all our gear in it. We were planning to go camping in Birch Bay.” Verhnjak said he only bought the trailer three weeks ago, and it was being stored in the parking lot of his business, at 15531 24 Ave., while he prepared it for vacation.

The trailer was locked, and secured

The theft was caught on surveillance video, with the incident occurring at 3:27 a.m., according to the tape. The thieves, who drove a Ford F150 truck, made two passes by the trailer – cutting the locks on the first pass-by – before driving away with it on the third.

Anyone with information about any crime is urged to contact Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502, White Rock RCMP at 778-593-3600 or, to remain anonymous, Crime Stoppers at 1-800222-8477(TIPS).

Police in South Surrey and White Rock are investigating a string of recent robberies – including at least two in which the perpetrator produced a knife.

But despite similarities in the incidents, police say it’s too soon to say for certain that the incidents are the work of the same person.

“We haven’t been able to secure any evidence that creates that link definitively,” White Rock RCMP Sgt. Manly Burleigh said Monday, referring to robberies two days apart last week, at a coffee shop on Johnston Road and a tea house on Marine Drive.

Small Ritual Coffee Society, a non-profit operation at 1237 Johnston Rd., was targeted just after 8 p.m. June 12, when a Caucasian man with strawberry-blond hair and dark clothing entered and demanded cash.

“He just told her, basically, give me all the f–--ing money, or I’ll stab you and don’t follow me,” volunteer Rydé Harding said. “She just did what she was told.”

The culprit, Harding noted, was “serial-killer calm.” He walked away with $1,043 from the till and an estimated $200$250 that had been collected in support of a volunteer who is fundraising for the B.C. Cancer Foundation.

The second incident, in the 14800-block of Marine Drive, occurred around 7 p.m. June 14. It too, involved a Caucasian male in dark clothing who produced a knife, Burleigh said.

That individual, however, was not successful.

Burleigh said a review of recent files indicates such crimes are “quite rare” for White Rock.

The details will be compared with those in a daytime robbery June 7 at the Booster Juice in South Surrey’s Peninsula Village.

That store, at 15355 24 Ave., was targeted around 3:30 p.m., and police are still investigating to determine if the culprit, described as a Caucasian male wearing sunglasses and a hat, had a weapon.

Here’s looking at you, White Rock

E

xtra sets of eyes may soon be keeping a cyclopean vigil over White Rock’s waterfront.

Coun. Al Campbell suggested last week that the installation of surveillance cameras along the seaside city’s landmark promenade and pier should be explored as part of the city’s commitment to public safety as one of its corporate priorities for 2012-’14.

The reasoning offered is that cameras would not only help identify and catch culprits responsible for all manner of unlawful behaviour – from vandalism to violence – but quite possibly prevent it from happening in the first place.

It is true that surveillance cameras have become a fact of life in Britain – where Campbell once served as a police officer – and in many other places around an increasingly troubled globe. It is also true that the installation of cameras at the Scott Road SkyTrain parking lot are being credited with a first-year drop in auto theft of some 15 per cent.

One must hasten to point out that there is, as yet, some difference between a high-crime area such as the Scott Road SkyTrain lot and the White Rock waterfront.

This isn’t to argue about the effectiveness of cameras. They certainly have their place in private businesses, homes and entrances and high-traffic areas in public buildings.

However, electronically monitoring such open areas as White Rock’s waterfront is a large step toward the kind of dystopian society imagined by George Orwell in his prophetic novel 1984.

In White Rock – which has long prided itself as something special – it would be a signal that we are just another urban area where high property values trump any notion of a kinder, gentler community. Perhaps we could modify the branding to “My Closely-Monitored City By The Sea.” It must not be forgotten that a system such as that suggested by Campbell will be costly to install, to maintain and to monitor, and, unless designed with the utmost care, subject to blind spots that could render it all but ineffective.

We would hope that any further investigation of his idea includes substantive, evidencebased reports that the waterfront is truly an area of concern – and that security cameras would really help – before a single tax dollar is thrown at such an undertaking.

So far this week you’ve said… yes 42% no 58% 95 responding more important than achievement.

The teachers’ union constantly sets an example that the way to get what you want is to stamp your feet and demand it from government. What do we expect young people to learn?

And how easy is it for B.C. to slip into a Greece-like tailspin, where a majority expects to be carried on the backs of the shrinking minority who do productive work?

Old-timers might recall when Mike Harcourt’s NDP government took over from the allegedly miserly Social Credit regime and raised welfare rates.

They compounded that mistake by relaxing eligibility rules and making it easier for employable people to stay on welfare. After a couple of years of this wealth redistribution, 10 per cent of the B.C. population was on welfare, with more piling on every day. Faced with the results of this staggering blunder, Harcourt lashed out at “cheats, deadbeats and varmints” scamming B.C. taxpayers and launched a crackdown on fraud.

Later the NDP cut the basic rate for single employables to $500 a month.

Today it stands at $610, and the NDP looks poised to repeat history. Surrey MLA Jagrup Brar did a month-long publicity stunt in January, living on welfare by wandering from shelter to food bank with TV cameras trailing him.

Instead of learning to live off the burgeoning urban handout industry, he could have gone up to Dawson Creek or Fort St. John and worked as a labourer.

Cameras only record crime

Injustice is swift

Editor: Re: White Rock eyes waterfront cameras, June 14.

I am not against any community deciding to implement any measures that will deter criminal activities and improve public safety.

I’m all for it.

I also have no issue at all with CCTV. The way I see it, anything to prevent crime is a good thing.

And, as for “big brother,” I figure if I’m doing nothing wrong, who cares who’s watching me outside the walls of my own home?

Also, I’m not a resident of White Rock, so whatever happens in White Rock is ultimately for the people who live there to decide.

I would like to know, though, if the objective to installing closed-circuit television (CCTV) is to capture on film when “something happens one day” or to help deter existing crime on the pier and promenade?

Has there been a high incidence of crime specifically on the pier and promenade – versus any other area in White Rock – that warrants this focused attention?

I really wonder how current on today’s CCTV and public safety issues Coun. Al Campbell is, when he says that “they don’t have Michael Dunahees in England.”

What a ridiculous statement!

Hasn’t Coun. Campbell read of the horrid case of Jamie Bulger – the toddler abducted in 1993 from a shopping centre in Liverpool who was then tortured and murdered?

And as for “we have so much going on in Canada, nobody gets caught,” what about last month’s trial relating to the monsters who abducted eight-year-old Tori Stafford from her school in Ontario, then sexually assaulted and murdered her?

The last Jamie Bulger and Tori Stafford were seen alive was on CCTV footage. And although the footage ultimately helped send the creatures who murdered them to jail, CCTV didn’t do much to deter these horrific events from happening in the first place.

And what about the Stanley Cup riots? Again, much of it was captured on CCTV, but it still happened.

Even if the goal is only to see what’s going on at the pier and on the promenade – does White Rock have the required resources to adequately monitor or review every minute of film as it happens or afterwards?

CCTV is prevalent in many countries today, but I’m not convinced it actually does much to increase public safety by deterring crime. Couldn’t something else be done now to actually prevent crime?

I encourage White Rock to conduct at least a literature review of the value of CCTV and associated costs as a first step to exploring what can be done for increased public safety.

I am sure there are other publicsafety agencies that could provide current scientific information to help guide sound decision making. Here is a place to start: www.rcmp-grc. gc.ca/ccaps-spcca/cctv-tvcf-eng.htm H. Torrance, Surrey

Editor: I am writing to express my concern over the overbearing and aggressive parking bylaw regulations being enforced at Centennial Arena.

While the White Rock pay-parking debate has been in the news over the years, it remains embarrassing that Centennial is the only community arena in the entire Lower Mainland area that charges families to park their car while their children participate in amateur sports.

Despite the efforts of our government, health professionals and schools to encourage young

people to be physically active, the City of White Rock insists that users pay to park while they are at the ball fields, tennis courts, lacrosse box, curling rink or ice arena.

On May 15, I was at Centennial Arena to attend a brief lacrosse officials’ meeting. Although I have a valid parking decal that cost me $15 per year, the lot was full, so I parked safely and unobtrusively just outside of a marked spot.

I was in and out of the arena in less than five minutes, only to return to a bylaw officer hovering by my car. He had not yet written a ticket.

I calmly explained my situation and he very rudely and abruptly told me that I cannot park in this area. He then took a photograph of my license plate while I waited quietly for him to write me a ticket.

I subsequently appealed, following the process outlined on the ticket, and was surprised to receive a phone call from the city three days later informing me that my appeal was denied. It seems White Rock has a remarkably swift justice process in the bylaw enforcement department.

Over the past 14 years, members of our family have been positive contributors to the community by playing on teams, volunteering thousands of hours coaching hockey and lacrosse, and I have refereed lacrosse for the past six years.

On behalf of all users of the facilities, I urge the city to remove pay-parking from Centennial Arena.

Similarly, officers need to exercise reasonable discretion interacting with all members of the community.

Dean Allison, Surrey

quote of note

If Wednesday’s demonstrating was for that whale, the whole street would spring up with horns.a Gary Sipeng Xie

File photo

The death of a juvenile humpback – discovered entwined in fishing line – drew hundreds to White Rock beach.

Lessons from young whale’s death Editor: Re: Crowd gathers as whale succumbs, June 14.

It was distressing to see the juvenile humpback whale that became entangled, was stranded and eventually perished on the shore in front of the Semiahmoo lands.

Such a shameful sight to see the meters of trawling line that eventually exhausted the beautiful mammal.

The response by those with buckets early in the day to try to save the animal was heartening, and a quick response from Fisheries and Oceans was appreciated.

Along with RCMP and volunteers from the Friends of Semiahmoo Bay Society, they were able to set up a perimeter to keep the public a safe and respectful distance. Those on the beach were, in the main, sombre and came to pay respects.

It is important at this time that we remember the responsibility we all have for the state of our oceans and the health of all of plants and animals that inhabit them.

Focus on what you can do to help by volunteering and learning more about marine restoration initiatives. Visit www.birdsonthebay.ca to learn more about how you can help preserve, protect and rehabilitate our local waters.

Get your children involved by joining our Beach Hero Marine Interpreters walk to learn about the link between life in the intertidal zone and larger marine mammals, June 24 at 2 p.m. at the foot of the White Rock pier.

Yvonne Dawydiak, Friends of Semiahmoo Bay Society

Rare opportunity inhibited How sad that hundreds of people came down to the beach with their children for a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to see a whale up close.

Tragic as its death, it still would have allowed children to see one of these magnificent mammals up close.

However, six police cruisers and staff were dedicated to ensure nobody got within 200 yards. The Semiahmoo natives declared the whale as their own and made sure

we were all aware of the law of trespass if you tried to cross the taped off line.

Absolutely disgraceful how all these resources were used to stop us and our children from seeing a whale.

We live on the ocean, people!

So it was towed away and this once-in-20-year sight was sunk from sight. There were a lot of very unhappy people on the beach Tuesday evening.

Grant Humaniuk, Surrey

Missed chance to help more I am a Semiahmoo Secondary student and I took part in the recent demonstration in front of MP Russ Hiebert’s office on June 13 to protest against Bill C-38.

I stood on that busy intersection along with 60 others and displayed, amongst their various slogans, my own sign reading: “Honk for Democracy.”

Although we did receive some loud endorsements, most drivers just looked at us with a blank – and often confused – expression. I was especially discouraged when I sensed that people were viewing us simply as oppositions seeking to smear the government and questioned for whom we’re really doing this for.

I want to say that, sir, we’re doing this for the people of our splendid democracy. Not only for the 60 per cent of voters who didn’t support Prime Minister Stephen Harper, but also for the 40 per cent who did, considering many of the changes were nowhere to be found on the Conservative’s party platform.

I still remember skipping class last Tuesday – reads ‘dentist appointment’ – to see the baby whale on the beach, who has inflamed much interest amongst my peers and the community.

If Wednesday’s demonstrating was for that whale, the whole street would spring up with horns. But for a bill that could potentially kill hundreds of whales…

perspectives …on the Semiahmoo Peninsula

24-hour mobile service for female victims of violence

‘Specially-trained’ team provides care Sheila Reynolds Black Press

I

t’s the first time Meghan’s parents have ever left her alone for a weekend.

Bored, the 16-year-old posts a note on Facebook saying “ ’rents are away. Anyone want to watch a movie?”

A small group comes to her house, including a friend’s new boyfriend. Meghan hasn’t met James before. He’s 19 and quiet and seems like a nice guy.

He offers to drive to the store to get some junk food for the movie night and invites Meghan along because he doesn’t know the neighbourhood well. James is much more chatty in the car and Meghan feels comfortable. He even invites her to a concert with him and her friend the following weekend.

When they reach their destination, James parks in the lot behind the store. But instead of getting out of the car right away, he locks the doors and suggests they talk for a while.

Before Meghan knows what’s happening, James is on top of her. He covers her mouth, pressing her head hard against the headrest so she can’t move or scream.

James sexually assaults Meghan. Cars are coming and going from the parking lot, but it’s dark and no one can see what’s going on.

When it’s all over, James hops out of the car and goes into the store, leaving Meghan in the car. She has no phone and doesn’t know what to do. Should she run? Before she can decide, James returns.

He acts like nothing has happened and chats again about the concert.

Back at the house, the two walk toward the front door and James grabs Meghan from behind.

“I know that’s why you came along,” he whispers. “Don’t worry, it will be our secret.”

When her house guests leave hours later, Meghan is alone and afraid. She doesn’t know what to do or who to tell. Her parents will probably never trust her on her own again.

The teen makes her way to Surrey Memorial Hospital. It’s 3 a.m. and the waiting room is full.

A triage nurse asks Meghan why she’s there but when she tries to answer, there are only tears.

“Has someone hurt you asks the nurse.

Meghan can only nod.

“Do you need to see a sexual-assault nurse?”

Meghan nods again.

It’s now that Surrey Memorial Hospital

Surrey has launched a 24-hour mobile service for female victims of violence.

(SMH) gets in touch with the Surrey Women’s Centre’s Surrey Mobile Assault Response Team (SMART).

The new 24-hour service hotline, launched last week, ensures victims have support after physical or sexual violence. Once in a safe place, specially trained workers help women explore their options, explaining the medical, legal and social services available, and help them come up with a safety plan.

The mobile crisis service was created by the women’s centre in partnership with SMH. It is funded by the Department of Justice Canada, St. Mary’s Health Foundation of New Westminster, the Newman Foundation, Royal LePage Coronation Park, and the Al Roadburg and Lohn Foundation.

Sonya Boyce, executive director of Surrey Women’s Centre, calls SMART a critical

resource.

“If we know that a woman or girl is assaulted every 60 seconds, then help must be available every minute of the day,” Boyce says.

Studies show that women who are assaulted are less likely to contact police or seek medical treatment than victims of other crimes. Too often, they rely on family and friends and don’t get the emotional support and practical help they need.

SMART workers are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days of the year – by phone or in person.

“Assaults don’t stop at 5 p.m. so assistance should be available all the time,” said Corrine Arthur, SMART co-ordinator, noting victims can simply talk, if that’s all that’s requested. Or, a worker can accompany a woman to hospital immediately after an assault if they need medical treatment or to collect forensic evidence.

“After an assault, it is critical that women and girls receive immediate medical attention due to the possibility of injury, pregnancy or sexually transmitted infections,” says Lynn Gifford, forensic nursing services coordinator at SMH, adding sometimes women have life-threatening injuries they are unaware of.

“Our nursing team is specially trained to assess and treat injuries sustained during an assault. Accessing medical care after an assault – any assault – is critical and the collection of forensic evidence has proved crucial in the prosecution of sexual offences.”

In Megan’s case, a SMART worker named Donna met with her and assured her she’d help her through all her difficult decisions, including when and how to tell her parents what has happened.

She was by her side during the lengthy medical examination.

Meghan said she was unsure whether she wanted to go to the police, so Donna explained she had time to decide, as her evidence could be stored for up to a year.

The teen arranged to call an aunt, who picked her up. Donna again assured Meghan she’d be contacted by a SMART worker the following day and that they would be there for her in the weeks to follow.

“You’ve been through enough tonight. Rest and we’ll work out the next steps together.”

The Lower Mainland Green Team (LMGT) has hit a milestone.

As a group of 30 volunteers – assisted by Metro Vancouver Parks staffers – prepared to pull invasive ivy species from Tynehead Regional Park on June 9, they were informed that more than 1,000 people had signed up to the environmental group’s website.

“I worried in the beginning when I first started the group that people were joining in droves because the Lower Mainland Green Team was a novelty,” says LMGT founder Lyda Salatian, a South Surrey native. “Fast forward a little over a year later – we hit 1,000 volunteers last Saturday (June 2).”

Events are organized at http://www. meetup.com/The-Lower-Mainland-GreenTeam/ “It’s not a fad,” says Salatian. “This is real.

People are genuinely interested in taking care of the environment. They just needed a nudge in the right direction.”

GROCERY SHOPPING SUCCESS

by Sheila Fetter, RD Eating well for health and fitness starts in the grocery store. If we make the choice to fill our grocery carts (and cupboards) with healthy foods, it’s a good guess that we’ll be eating them more often. On the flipside, if we allow unhealthy foods to take up the majority of space in our shopping carts, we will likely be eating those instead of healthier options that contribute to an overall feeling of well-being. Here are a few simple tips on how to sharpen those shopping skills and transform yourself into a grocery guru.

“Shop the perimeter of the grocery store for healthy eating,” is what some experts say. This promotes buying fresh items like produce, baked goods, meats and dairy items located on the outer aisles of a grocery store. This is good to keep in mind, but there are a couple of caveats.

First, merchandising masters have learned to strategically place unhealthy foods around the perimeter of the store, enticing shoppers to buy without question. Second, shoppers may be missing out on some of the healthiest foods found in the center aisles.

Rather than sticking to the shop-the-perimeter rule, focus on purchasing foods in their most natural form. Around the perimeter, pick up fresh or frozen fruits and veggies, unsweetened and low-fat dairy products, poultry, seafood and lean cuts of meat. In the centre aisles, seek out hidden treasures such as beans, lentils, nuts, seeds and whole grains. A diet centered around these foods is fool-proof.

Label reading is also integral to grocery shopping success.

At first it can seem like a chore, yet label reading is the only way to truly know what we are buying. Consider the front of most packages as advertising that makes products

www.peacearchnews.com 15

look deceptively appetizing and healthy. Resist the urge to let advertising guide your shopping habits. Flip every packaged item over and have a look at the more reliable information on ingredient lists and nutrition facts labels.

When looking at the percent daily value, you’ll notice that sugar doesn’t have a value. That’s because there is no requirement for sugar in our diet. When inspecting labels, know that 4 grams of sugar equals approximately 1 teaspoon of sugar or 1 sugar cube. Limiting sugar intake By law, ingredient lists name every ingredient in the to 40 to 50 grams (10 to 12 teaspoons or sugar cubes) product by order of weight, from heaviest to lightest. per day reduces the amount of empty calories consumed.

Use caution with ingredient lists as companies may try to The term “empty calories” refers to the energy we get deceive consumers by listing certain components (sugar, from certain foods that are devoid of key nutrients like for example) under several different names, giving the impression there is less of it. When buying packaged foods, vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. Consuming too many go for products with a short ingredient list and avoid those empty calories may lead to not only weight gain, but also malnutrition, which can hamper health and fitness. with unhealthy additives like hydrogenated oils, excessive For help with shopping for success, visit Vasi Naidoo, sugar and salt and artificial colours and flavours.

BSc, RHN, on Mondays and Wednesdays at Choices South When examining a Nutrition Facts label, always inspect Surrey (3248 King George Boulevard) or sign up for a the serving size first, found near the top left corner. Each complimentary healthy-eating store tour by calling manufacturer will have a different serving size to suit their 604-541-3902 or visiting the customer service desk at needs. This knowledge is especially handy when comparing Choices South Surrey. different brands of the same product. For example, two brands of bread may both boast 5 grams of fibre on their label, but the information on one label refers to 1 slice of For more information visit bread, the other refers to 2 slices.

The Percent Daily Value column indicates what nutrients are in one serving of food. If the label states 15 percent of fibre, that means it provides 15 percent of the daily recommended amount of fibre. However, the Percent Daily Value is based on a 2,000-calorie diet, which is more than most adult women and many adult men actually require and should be used as a guide, not a nutrition prescription.

If you’re trying to determine whether a food is high or low in specific nutrients follow this general rule: if a food has 5 percent or less of a nutrient, consider that low; if a food has 20 percent or more of a nutrient, consider that high.

This applies to desirable nutrients like fibre and calcium as well as undesirable nutrients like trans fat and sodium.

BC Summer Games still seeking volunteers Rick Kupchuk Black Press

Only half of the number of volunteers needed for next month’s BC Summer Games in Surrey have been recruited.

But 2012 committee president Bill McNamara isn’t concerned – at least not yet.

McNamara said roughly 1,600 people have stepped forward to donate their time and expertise in the numerous roles needed.

That’s less than half of the 3,900 people the BC Games Society says is necessary.

“The BC Games Society says we’re actually ahead of pace, but I’d like (recruitment) all done by the end of the month,” said McNamara. “That way we have more than enough time to train the volunteers. Then it’s one more thing we don’t have to worry about.”

McNamara said the group could probably get by with 3,200 people volunteering on the weekend of the July 19-22 BC Summer Games, as often people step up to fill more than one role, or work more than the requested single four-hour shift.

An example of the size of the Games, which will feature more than 2,800 young athletes competing over three days, is in food services. McNamara said people with experience are needed to deliver three meals a day to the sports sites.

“We need to serve around 700-800 meals every 20 minutes,” he said. “We need to serve 2,500 people at the sites within an hour or so. It’s enormous. Over the four days, we’ll serves 32,000 meals.”

Other areas needing additional volunteers are security (patrolling the dorms), accommodation (signing in athletes to dorms each evening), and transportation (courtesy drivers).

And while a large number of volunteers is good, expertise in the required fields – no matter the sport – is better.

“Hopefully, people are knowledgeable in the areas we need,” McNamara said.

To volunteer, register online at www.2012bcsummergames.ca/ volunteers/board-ofdirectors/ The 2012 BC Summer Games will see more than 2,800 young athletes compete in 21 different

sports, such as soccer, swimming, rowing, wrestling, softball and more. Visit 2012bcsummergames. ca

indoor and beach varieties – is still seeking help. Sport chair Sharon Carter is looking for young adults who have experience as

BCHL announces playoff changes Nick Greenizan Sports Reporter

The BC Hockey League’s playoff format is changing again.

The post-season change was one of a number of moves announced by the junior ‘A’ hockey league after holding its annual general meeting in Richmond on June 7-8.

With the league moving to a three-division alignment for the 2012/13 season, the playoffs will consist of the top four of five teams in each of the two Coastal Conference divisions making the post-season. The No. 1 and 4 seeds will face off in first-round best-of-five series, with the No. 2 and 3 seeds also playing each other.

A second round best-of-fives series will determine the Coastal Conference finalists, who will then play a best-of-seven series, with the winner advancing to the league championship.

In the six-team Interior, there is one less playoff round, as the top four teams will qualify for the post-season, with the teams playing a best-of-seven series. The two first-round winners will then play a best-of-seven Interior Conference final, with the winner advancing to the league championship.

Back in January, the BCHL announced its conference and division re-alignment.

There will be 10 teams, including the Surrey Eagles, in the Coastal Conference – split into Island and Mainland divisions – while the league’s remaining six squads will make up the Interior Conference. At the time, the league postponed announcing a playoff format, and instead solicited advice from teams on how to frame the post-season.

Other changes announced at the time were the reduction of the regular season from 60 to 56 games and the addition of a

three-day showcase event from Sept. 7-9, with game results counting in the regularseason standings. That event will be hosted by the Chilliwack Chiefs, it was recently announced.

Other changes announced after the AGM last week included the discontinuation of the 15-year-old affiliate player draft, and the expansion of team rosters from 21 players to 22. Coaches will also now have the option of placing one player on a longterm injury reserve, thus freeing up another roster spot.

Rumours of roster expansion were floated when the January changes were announced – news that was met with positive reviews.

“That’s a really good thing,” said Eagles coach Matt Erhart at the time. “With just 20 guys, you get one guy hurt, somebody else gets sick and then you have to start using affiliate players already.”

TROTMAN, Margery (Cram family) 88 yrs. 8/8/1923 - 13/6/2012

MCDONALD, Mervin, J April 16, 1918 - June 6, 2012 It is with deep sadness we say goodbye to Mervin. He was born in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan and grew up in a large, warm and loving family. Mervin was predeceased by his parents, five brothers and one sister. He will be greatly missed by his two younger sisters Margaret Marshall of Winnipeg & Rita Janzen of Saskatoon & his many nieces and nephews located across Canada. Mervin enjoyed traveling & visiting extended family. He enjoyed taking photos of every vacation & family visit and had an extensive photo collection. He was always one to send copies of the photos to family from his vacation.

Mervin took great pride in staying connected with his family and regularly visited his nieces, nephews and their families over the years. After he was unable to travel, his extended family visited him in White Rock or telephoned him regularly. Although Mervin did not live close to family members, he loved living in White Rock, and was the city’s greatest ambassador. He was the family genealogist and enjoyed staying in touch with is parents extended families from the Gatineau area and tracing his family roots back to Ireland. Mervin enjoyed his “sweet� treats and every family member and friend knew if Mervin was in town the desserts had to be special and sweet. Mervin was blessed with an abundance of very good friends who he enjoyed spending time with and celebrating birthdays and holidays together.

Service will be held June 22, at 1:00pm at Star of the Sea in White Rock, followed by a tea at Good Shepherd 2250 150th St. Sry. In lieu of flowers donations may be made to charity of one’s choice.

Gran, loved by all who knew her. Smiled and laughed all her life. Last of a family of 10.
