Communityminded teens will star in a nationwide commercial that was shot at an Abbotsford seniors home on Monday.

The ad is being directed by Randall Peters, who grew up in Abbotsford and still lives here.

As a television commercial director for Telus, he was tasked with highlighting the thousands of dollars the company gives to charities.

It will be a series of four ads highlighting different causes. The commercial he is creating in Abbotsford features the service program Free the Children which Telus supports. We Day, a project of Free the Children, is the largest philanthropic gathering of young people in the world, and has hosted speakers like President Bill Clinton, the Dalai Lama, iconic athletes and rock stars.

It has been held each year since 2007, takes place Oct. 18 in Vancouver and in six

other Canadian cities on different dates.

“The event is really about getting kids to give back to their communities, and get involved,” explained Peters.

To show examples of youth getting involved in their city, he chose to feature the work of kids from Abbotsford Traditional high school’s leadership group. Peters will highlight the work

of six kids – two who worked at the Abbotsford Food Bank, two who spent time with the Abbotsford Hospice Society, and a pair who volunteered for Menno Hospital Residential Care.

He pitched it to the Telus marketing department, and said they loved it.

“These are amazing examples of teenagers who are giving back,” said Peters.

He said it will be an authentic ad, using real people rather than actors, as the teens interact with the seniors at Primrose Gardens, the newest housing in Menno Home.

The television spot will run nationally in 30-second spots, and the students were interviewed for a longer piece that will run on the web.

Peters’ crew constructed a mock food

bank at Menno Home to shoot students Albel Deol and Anna Goertzen Loeppki stacking food.

Chelsey Perry and Navreer Brar volunteered at Menno Hospital. Ivneet Sohi and Sophia Bhatti worked with the hospice society, speaking with patients. A seventh student, Aisha Kaay, will be involved in a We Day segment of the commercial.

Johi said she spent two hours every Saturday, for the past three years, visiting with patients.

“They loved talking about old Abbotsford times, and the war… it was interesting.”

Perry said the patients visibly perk up when they get a visitor. She likes to talk with them about their families, and answer the questions they ask about this pretty teen who comes visiting.

“You try to make their day,” she said.

“They seem so much more cheerful.

“It’s a great experience,” said Perry. “Not everyone gets to be on TV.”

Les Betker had both an aunt and an uncle who died from cancer a few years ago, but the severity of the disease didn’t truly impact him until he witnessed kids who were suffering from it.

At the time, his second-born child, now four years old, was in BC Children’s Hospital being treated for nerve damage to her shoulder caused during her delivery.

“We saw a couple of kids in there battling cancer, and I just thought how horrible it would be to go through something like that,” Betker said.

In 2009, he decided to try to make

Betker, a police constable who lives in Abbotsford and works at the RCMP Pacific Region Training Centre in Chilliwack, joined the Cops for Cancer Tour de Valley.

The event, which begins today (Sept.

27), brings together police officers and emergency personnel to travel a route, by bicycle, while raising funds for pediatric cancer research and programs.

This year, the 26-member team will traverse 900 kilometres over nine days, making numerous stops at schools and community sites along the way.

A 24-year-old Abbotsford woman was arrested in Kelowna on Sunday evening after police found 300 marijuana plants in her vehicle when she stopped for a roadblock.

Central Okanagan Traffic Services members were conducting the sobriety check on Highway 33 at the Hall Creek rest area. They noticed a distinct odour coming from a Ford Explorer that they stopped. A search turned up 300 pot plants in the early stages of development, as well as a small amount of bud. The driver was arrested for possession for the purpose of trafficking and was released on a promise to appear in court in January.

This will be Betker’s fourth consecutive year as a member of the squad. The fundraising is an integral factor, but Betker – a father of four kids ranging in age from 18 months to five years – also enjoys connecting with the children the team visits along the way and serving as a role model.

Betker began preparing six months ago, with other team members, but he said no amount of training can mimic the full effects of riding 100 km a day for nine days straight.

“It takes quite a few days to recover after we’re done,” he said.

So far, the Tour de Valley team has raised almost $160,000 for the cause.

Local participants also include Abbotsford police constables Shane Wiens and Trevor Sales, and Mission RCMP Const. Christine Day.

When we die, someone will be responsible for our final wishes. It is not an easy task and most people struggle with the difficult decision making. Fortunately, we have the solution for you and your loved ones.

Prearranging your own funeral ensures you and your family peace of mind and will make things easier in their time of grief. You can choose the type of service you want at a cost you can afford. On your death, your family does not have to worry about second-guessing your wishes or paying for a funeral at an emotional time. Everything is taken care of.

At Dignity Memorial we work with you to plan a service filled with personalized details.

From time-honoured traditions to personal photographs, favourite readings and special songs, you can design the service to be a unique reflection of your life.

We have two new affordable products to alleviate the financial burden of a funeral. For example, prearranging for someone age 50 years can cost as little as $16 per month. For someone age 60 years it can cost as little as $19 per month.

To help you begin, we are offering a complimentary Dignity Memorial Personal Planning Guide. In addition, we will extend a 12% savings on the HST for entrusting us with your funeral prearrangements. This will be in effect until November 30, 2012. Contact us today to receive a free copy of the guide.

OF THE WEEK Do you support former Liberal MLA John van Dongen’s decision to leave the BC Conservative Party?

Dad killed in crash A shame the man that died was not even driving and had two kids that now won’t see their dad! He was such a nice guy and his kids were adorable.

Please slow down, and stop drinking and driving.

And for those that aren’t driving, don’t get into the vehicle with someone that has been drinking.

Stacy Baginski

To answer, go to abbynews.com

LAST WEEK, WE ASKED:

Please, please, please, talk to your kids often about the tragic effects of driving while under the influence. My heart just bleeds for all of these families.

Swapping sociology for socket sets Tom

B.C. Views Premier Christy Clark’s latest employment announcement set the tone for one of the big issues in the 2013 election.

Flanked by aircraft technician students at BCIT in Burnaby, Clark announced a $75-million program to upgrade aging trade and technical school facilities and hire instructors.

And she did it with some pointed criticism of the career path chosen by many of today’s high school students.

Clark introduced a student electrician, the first woman to win the senior technology education award at her high school, who then went on to get a bachelor’s degree in English and sociology.

No job, so she went to BCIT. Her message was clear. The government’s pre-election budget is going to shift priorities to the huge number of

They need cooks and like they did in my student days.

My experience as a student, a job seeker and a parent is that free money encourages aimless study, and the selection of courses that are appealing rather than safe investments. We already have far too much of that, and I think most students today would be better off with a bigger debt and a well-paying job.

As the new trades plan was being rolled out (and mostly ignored by the Vancouver media), former finance minister Colin Hansen announced he’s retiring.

It was Hansen who started the push for skills training back in 2008, emphasizing that there will be a million new jobs open by 2019 – 600,000 of them due to retiring baby boomers.

Hansen made a sales trip to snowy Toronto to launch advertising to lure people to B.C. That effort is being revised with a series of interprovincial and international trips, because even if all 650,000 high school students graduate and go to work in B.C. from now to 2019, it won’t be enough to fill all the jobs on the horizon. tfletcher@blackpress.ca

letters Don’t become collateral damage There are some stupid people in the world and it seems that some of them managed to get elected and allegedly represent the public interest on the waste management committee of Metro Vancouver.

I am, of course, referring to the proposed waste-to-energy plant (WTE) for handling combustible waste materials, most of which can be recycled. That takes effort, but some still think that burning is the best.

They are under the illusion that once incinerated, the bad is made good, as if by some magical process.

Wherever incinerators are installed, the health of those living downwind deterio-

rates. Various cancers and respiratory problem rates go up, and people die before their time.

While it is hard to directly lay the blame on the WTE plant, because the origin of the offending particulates are hard to pinpoint, and health authorities don’t bother to investigate, but the figures speak for themselves.

And now they want to burn hazardous materials too!

Speak up people. Let these crazy politicians know that you don’t share their enthusiasm for WTE. Do you want to become collateral damage?

Jail is better than nursing homes Here’s the way it should be: Let’s put the seniors in jail and the criminals in nursing homes. This would correct two things in one motion.

Seniors would have access to showers, hobbies and walks.

They would receive unlimited free prescriptions, dental and medical treatment, wheelchairs etc. And, they would

not have to wait two or more years for a new hip.

They would receive money instead of having to pay it out.

They would have constant video monitoring, so they would be helped if they fell or needed assistance.

Bedding would be washed regularly, and all clothing laundered and returned to them.

Meals and snacks would be brought to them.

They would have easy access to a library, fitness room, spiritual counselling, a pool, education, and free admission to in-house concerts by nationally recognized entertainment artists.

As for the criminals, they would receive cold food. They

would be left alone and unsupervised.

They would receive showers once a week.

They would live in tiny rooms, for which they would have to pay $5,000 per month.

They would have no hope of ever getting out. Sounds like justice to me.

Dog adoption drive A dog adoption drives starts this week in Mission, and runs until the end of the year.

Between January and June of this year, 20 dogs were brought into the SAINTS (Senior Animals In Need Today Society) shelter, but only five were adopted.

SAINTS works with animals that are often unadoptable due to their specialized physical and medical needs. The society provides end-of-life care for these animals. Many go to SAINTS from other facilities where they were to be euthanized.

The Pedigree Adoption Drive kicked off Sept. 19, and the pet food company has donated $5,000 to the society to help with food, medical expenses and operating costs.

Funds for the program come from a portion of proceeds from the sale of each specially marked Pedigree dry dog food.

For more information on the adoption drive and adopting a dog, visit mypedigree. ca/adoption. For information on SAINTS, visit saintsrescue.ca.

Smart meter claims before tribunal Wireless opponents still face hurdles

Jeff NAGEL Black Press

The B.C. Human Rights Tribunal has agreed to hear a complaint that B.C. Hydro’s blanket installation of wireless smart meters discriminates against medical sufferers who claim electromagnetic hypersensitivity.

Smart meter opposition group Citizens For Safe Technology lodged the complaint, which alleges discrimination on the basis of physical disability because of Hydro’s refusal to allow residents to opt out and have wired meters instead.

The group intends to bring evidence on behalf of dozens of affected members who have doctor’s advice to avoid living near wireless smart meters, and it also hopes others claiming similar afflictions could later join and benefit from any tribunalordered remedy.

But the decision, written by tribunal member Enid Marion,

sets a high bar for the challenge to advance.

The decision notes the group’s claims span various illnesses and included a catch-all category of “unspecified medical conditions” that the tribunal ruled was

“too vague.”

Citizens for Safe Technology (CST) were given 30 days to narrow their initial list of 45 claimants to just those with more specific illnesses linked to wireless exposure.

Hydro maintains its wireless smart meter network is safe and that signals are low power compared to other common radio-frequency sources and are transmitted only occasionally.

The commiTTee: The Crystal Gala Foundation is based in Abbotsford, but serves the people of the Fraser Valley, from Surrey and Langley to Abbotsford, Chilliwack, and Hope to Harrison Hot Springs, Agassiz, Mission, and Maple Ridge. The foundation, made up of a group of dynamic women from all walks of life, meets monthly around a kitchen table.

These women have one goal in mind: raise money to help promote and achieve breast health and support the women and families who suffer the effects of breast cancer.

Statistics provided by the Canadian Cancer Society show that in 2012, 22,700 women and 200 men will be diagnosed with breast cancer in Canada. Of that number, 5,100 women and 55 men will die as a result.

One in nine women will develop breast cancer some time in their lives and one in 29 will die from it.

The group’s commitment has resulted in the naming of the Crystal Gala Breast Health Unit and ensuring delivery of two state-of-the-art digital mammography machines, one within the Crystal Gala Breast Health Unit (for breast screening) and one for more in-depth diagnostic testing in the medical imaging department.

With the public’s help, the Crystal Gala raises money to fight Plaza breast and Ramada cancer and support those women and their families who find they must navigate the illness, fear, and end of life brought about by breast cancer.

Additionally, the money will support a new patient navigation proConference Centre, Abbotsford gram designed to help alleviate the stress and anxiety of wait times by guiding patients through all their testing within a 21-day time frame.

To date, the gala has raised more than $1.25 million, with $500,000 originally committed as the lead gift to A Campaign for Healthcare Excellence supporting the new Abbotsford Regional Hospital and Cancer Centre.

Gerri Charles, chair of the 2012 committee, said unlike some communities, people in Abbotsford don’t have to wait for a doctor’s referral.

The Crystal Gala Ramada Plaza and Conference Centre.

Guests will be treated to an evening of fine dining, dancing, auctions and more.

Pamela Martin has agreed to return again this year as MC of the event.

It was 1999 when a small group of women decided to hold a “gala” fundraiser to support the fight against breast cancer.

The committee, led by president Gerri Charles, determined the event should have a theme and chose “The Crystal Ball.”

“We want to have a really good time, give people tremendous value and make them feel good about giving back to this community,” Charles noted.

Now, 14 years later, the Crystal Gala is the premier fundraising event in Abbotsford.

This year, the theme is Bright Lights of Broadway. Charles, who has returned to her role as chair of the committee, said the event has been sold out since March.

The reputation of the gala keeps growing year after year, prompting more businesses and individuals to get involved.

Dorothy Dyck, another long-time member of the committee, believes the success of the gala comes from knowing the money stays in the community.

The event is volunteer-driven, meaning there are no administration costs. Money raised stays in Abbotsford to help those fighting the disease.

She said anyone who goes to the Abbotsford Hospital can see the results of all the hard work.

The committee has pledged to give the Abbotsford Hospital (Fraser Health) $1 million, and to date has donated $800,000.

“When you go to third floor, where the Crystal Gala Breast Health wing is located, people can touch it and it’s real, its tangible,” she said.

In the early years, funds raised by the gala went to buy needed equipment and supplies for the old Abbotsford Hospital.

“People are just happy to support us because they believe in the cause. They know the money is going to stay here and look after people,” Charles said.

“The event is owned by this community.

That’s a powerful thing,” said Dyck.

YOUR DONATION CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE!

With your help we raise money to fight breast cancer and support those women and their families who face a diagnosis.

To date the Crystal Gala Foundation has raised over $1.25 million.

Charles said that the group received its highest single gift ever this year as Clearbrook Ironworks donated just under $31,000 to the cause.

“We’re lucky enough to have such faithful supporters,” she said. “I think a lot of that is about our credibility. Most people who deal with the Crystal Gala, they believe in us and they know the money stays here.”

Mission looks to water metering to curb use

Mission is considering a water metering system to maximize the lifespan of the current supply.

A study presented to council last week outlined three metering options: q Status quo. The district would continue to educate and raise awareness about conservation, and offer rebates for low-flow toilets and high efficiency washing machines.

Mission would need a new water source around 2021. q Moderate. This would be a voluntary water meter program, which would result in about 18 per cent conservation, and would meet Mission’s needs until 2034. q High. A universal residential water meter program would be phased in over three years and conserve about 37 per cent. Mission would not need a new water source until around 2041.

The study, presented by Mike Younie, revealed a single family residential home in Mission uses about 60 per cent more water than an equivalent Abbotsford home.

Mission is using 466 litres of water per person per day, compared to Abbotsford’s 293 litres in 2011.

There are signs Abbotsford’s use has now declined to about 220.

“Mission has no incentive to conserve with a flat rate,” explained Younie.

Abbotsford has had universal water metering in place for decades.

Younie said there isn’t a water crisis yet, and using WWM, there won’t be one for 10 to 20 years.

He is recommending the district proceed with a universal water metering program.

When the district explored the issue a few years ago, a cost estimate of $12 million was quoted, but Younie said that is a very rough ballpark figure today.

In less than two years the district will have saved up about

$6 million from Community Works Gas Tax Funds for this project, and will look at internal bor-

rowing before going to external sources, he said.

There are also grants the district

can apply for from senior governments.

The full report is available at mission. ca and will be pre-

Nearly 30,000 people registered to use the new tolled Port Mann Bridge in just the first two days of sign-ups, surprising project officials.

The early surge already puts the electronic tolling system 10 per cent of the way to its target of 300,000 registered users by the end of February.

“We’re very pleased that we’ve had the response we have had so far,” Port Mann/Highway 1 project communications director Max Logan said. “It’s a terrific start for us.”

Thousands of motorists have registered to use the new tolled Port Mann Bridge crossing the Fraser River from Surrey to Coquitlam.

The province wants regular bridge users to sign up and get the TReO windshield decal that is automatically and efficiently detected without the more costly use of li-

cence plate cameras and manual image checks that will be used to invoice nonregistered vehicles.

Officials also think the more drivers who register and use the system, the

more will embrace the tolled Port Mann and not clog other routes to reach an untolled bridge.

As an incentive, half-price tolls – $1.50 for regular cars instead of $3 – apply for a full year for those who register before March 1, when the threemonth discount period for all expires and non-registered users start paying full price.

A further incentive gives 20 free crossings to those who sign up before Nov. 30.

Logan expects many more users to register as those two deadlines near.

“Our goal is to have 80 to 85 per cent of our regular users registered,” Logan said.

The new Port Mann officially opens sometime in December with a free week before tolling begins.

TReO system registration opened Sept. 17 at www. treo.ca.

Logan said many drivers may not be aware yet of how the system works, that it costs nothing to register and get a decal and that it will also give them the lowest available toll when using TransLink’s Golden Ears Bridge.

Logan said the licence plate recognition system has an accuracy rate of more than 95 per cent but manual reviews of images should bring the enforcement rate to 99 per cent and ensure virtually all are invoiced.

He said the “sophisticated” cameras can still read plates some drivers may try to obscure with dirt or other substances and motorists who do that face police enforcement.

Logan expects the “vast majority” of out-of-province visitors will also pay voluntarily.

Signs will direct non-B.C. residents to either pay their toll online or detour to customer service centres in Surrey or Coquitlam where they’ll be able to pay in person or use a drive-through kiosk.

Seven-year-old set to perform with Abbotsford Youth Orchestra

There are child prodigies, and then there’s Calgary’s Kevin Chen.

At age five he began music studies; at six he was the youngest in Canada to pass the Grade 9 Royal Conservatory of Music exams; and this summer, at age seven, he passed his Grade 10 exams – with first-class honours.

In spring, he performed an 80-minute debut recital featuring works by Mozart, Beethoven, Chopin and Debussy and achieved national recognition after his performance at the Calgary Kiwanis Music Festival.

In October, Chen will make his first concert appearance as a guest soloist with the Abbotsford Youth Orchestra (AYO) as they present The Prodigy on Saturday, Oct. 13 at 7 p.m. at the South Abbotsford Church, 32424 Huntingdon Rd. Calvin Dyck, director of the AYO, met Chen’s teacher, Colleen Athparia, while adjudicating a music competition in Winnipeg.

“Colleen told me she was having a challenge staying ahead of her youngest student,” said Dyck.

Chen will be performing Mozart’s Piano Concerto No. 17 and because he is not very big, under 40 pounds, organizers are bringing in a piano from Vancouver that has a very light touch.

Chen is described as exceedingly shy, yet playful. Dyck describes him as an artistic genius.

Census also shows many adult kids live at home Jeff NAGEL Black Press

Experts say a jump in same-sex couples counted in Metro Vancouver in the latest census likely reflects society’s growing acceptance of gay marriage since Canada legalized it in 2005.

The 2011 census counted 6,425 samesex couples in Metro Vancouver – 1.2 per cent of all Metro couples – a jump of more than 2,200 from 2006.

lationships (89 per cent in Abbotsford and area), with the rest living common law.

Another phenomenon running strong in Metro Vancouver is the boomerang kid – 20-somethings who either don’t move out of their parents’ home or come back later.

Nearly 47 per cent of Metro young adults in their 20s still live at home, compared to 42 per cent nationally.

Berlin said that’s likely due to the concentration of universities and colleges in the region, as well as the high cost of housing.

“The desire to skip that rental stage of the life cycle and move straight into home onwership could be another reason,” he said.

SFU sociology professor Barbara Mitchell agreed, but said other factors are also at play.

“Young people are living in a very different economic and social world,” she said, adding the transition to conventional adulthood is delayed for many.

“In the past it was a little more predictable,” Mitchell said.

“You left the house, you got your car, you got married and had kids.

“Now young people are going to school longer because labour markets are so competitive they need to.”

The census results also showed slightly more children in the Abbotsford region live with two parents (26 per cent) than in Metro Vancouver (24 per cent.) – another factor Berlin said points to slightly more traditional families in the Fraser Valley.

Save time The new 10-lane bridge is twice the size of the old one, which will reduce congestion and save you time – you could cut your drive in half. Less idling also means less money spent at the gas pump, with some drivers saving up to a litre in fuel each day. A series of interchanges and overpass improvements provide faster, safer travel to and from the highway. With less congestion and more reliability, you’ll be able to better predict how long your drive will take and make sure you arrive on time.

Commercial garbage exodus costing Metro

Haulers use a local transfer station or other landfills to avoid high tipping fees

Jeff NAGEL Black Press

pay a much bigger share of the system’s cost.

It’s not just money at stake, but

the effectiveness of Metro’s recycling rules – because customers who use outbound haulers

don’t have to abide by the disposal bans Metro imposes to keep recyclable materials from

being dumped.

Metro is expected to propose a licensing system that forces haulers to

use Metro transfer stations or designated in-region private recycling operators.

Metro Vancouver risks losing much of the tipping fees that underpin the region’s recycling system unless it blocks commercial waste haulers from trucking garbage east to Abbotsford.

Cost is the main reason why 50,000 tonnes of garbage is already trucked out-of-region each year, often rolling right past Metro transfer stations while adding to congestion and air emissions.

Some outbound haulers use an Abbotsford transfer station or other out-of-region landfills for as little as $70 per tonne, while Metro Vancouver’s tipping fee is $107.

The difference, officials say, is because Metro’s fees also support a full range of recycling initiatives in the region, as well as planning and administration costs.

They plan to intervene to keep the current trickle of outgoing trash from growing to a flood.

The 50,000 tonnes exiting the region translates into $5.3 million a year in lost tipping fees, but that could soar to more than $60 million if all the haulers who handle commercial, industrial, institutional and multi-family waste pickup in the region followed suit.

Solid waste department manager Paul Henderson said a full migration of those sectors, which account for 60 per cent of Metro’s 1.1 million annual tonnes of

waste, would likely force the region to slash service levels while making residential homes

UFV celebrates giving at Changing Lives ceremony

In what was described as a cross between a blind date and speed dating, UFV benefactors and the recipients of their generosity got together recently to meet,

greet, thank, and celebrate philanthropy.

The university recently held its annual Changing Lives awards ceremony at the Ramada Plaza and Conference

Centre.

The casual format groups donors and recipients together, giving donors the chance to see who their scholarship or bursary benefits and students

the opportunity to say thanks.

UFV executive director of advancement services Madeleine Hardin related how criminology student Nikki Dionne had

wowed the crowd at a University Women’s Club meeting by sharing her story of how a scholarship had helped her.

“It meant the difference between working

50 hours a week and 30 hours a week,” said Hardin.

“Your gifts help our students in profound ways. We do change lives at UFV, and your generosity helps us to

do so.”

President Mark Evered said the support of community partners helped UFV evolve from the “college that could” to the “university that did.

“I see passion, commitment, and talent in this room. I also see our future.”

Two students illustrated how important the support of the university and its donors had been to them.

UFV basketball star Nicole Wierks of Chilliwack, who is majoring in biology, minoring in kinesiology, and hoping to attend medical school, recalled the “sticker shock” of finding out that one textbook could cost $200.

“It’s difficult to be successful without the support of people who want you to be,” she said. “Not just family and friends, but donors too. You are investing in the growth and betterment of our community, and removing financial burdens and barriers has a cascading effect on other parts of our lives.”

Nik Venema, who recently graduated with a Bachelor of Business administration with an economics minor, is now enrolled in graduate studies. But, as he related at the ceremony, he almost didn’t make it through university.

“I had my choice of universities when I graduated high school and went off to one of the larger ones. But I tripped on the threshold, and was given a swift kick back out.

UFV gave me a second chance. There will always be a place in my heart for this university and what it stands for.”

Satwinder Bains, the director of the Centre for IndoCanadian Studies and a key player in the fundraising campaign that launched the centre, spoke from the donor’s perspective.

“When we were fundraising for our centre, we knocked on doors the oldfashioned way with a theme of ‘higher education for a future generation.’ It was based on a dream, and our donors’ dream was that what they didn’t know, their children would know.”

Defenceman T.J. Brodie played 54 games last season with the Calgary Flames, but he’s back with the Heat this fall due to the NHL lockout.

Hockey season heats up With roster spots at a premium during the NHL lockout, Abbotsford Heat training camp will feature some fascinating battles

Dan KINVIG Abbotsford News

The AHL regular season doesn’t open until Oct. 12, but one of the Abbotsford Heat’s most intense games of the year runs one week earlier.

Head coach Troy Ward will preside over the Black and White Game, an intrasquad scrimmage, on Oct. 5. (The opening faceoff is at 7

p.m. at the Abbotsford Entertainment and Sports Centre, and yes, fans are welcome.)

The game, coming as it does on the eighth full day of training camp, will be a pivotal moment – at least in the short term – in some players’ careers. Ward anticipates making his first and only round of cuts the next morning, and barring injury, he’d like to keep a relatively lean

roster of 13 forwards, GM John Weisbrod and eight defencemen and head coach Bob Hartley two goalies.

“This is such a tough business, and there’s some good players coming into this camp.

“The level of competition is going to be stiff.

That’s going to require, obviously, some big decisions by us. But the decisions become a little bit easier based on how the next few days go.”

Mariners to host 24-hour soccer marathon Event launches new partnerships with B.C. Blind Sports and Special Olympics

Abbotsford News

Magnuson Ford Mariners FC is kicking off a new chapter in its history with a 24-hour soccer marathon this weekend.

Abbotsford’s minor soccer association is hosting the event in conjunction with the CBC’s Sports Day in Canada, and it runs from 6 p.m. Friday until 6 p.m. Saturday at DeLair Park.

Youth teams will be on the pitch on Friday evening and Saturday during the day, and adult teams will carry on the marathon overnight.

There will be a winner – a cumulative score will be kept.

“At the end of the process, it might be 326 for the red team and 412 for the blue,” Ian Knight, the Mariners’ technical director, noted with a chuckle. “We’re just trying to create a fun, relaxed community event that’s in celebration of sport and the game of soccer.”

The marathon includes a celebrity game from 12-1 p.m. on Saturday, featuring Abbotsford native and Olympic bronze soccer medalist Sophie Schmidt, along with local police, fire and border services officers.

Twisters Gymnastics Club, which partners with the soccer association in delivering programs to the U5, U6 and U7 age groups, will also be involved.

Spectators are welcome, and organizers are inviting people to bring a donation for the Abbotsford Food Bank.

The soccer marathon launches a pair of new Mariners partnerships with the B.C. Blind Sports and Recreation Association and the Abbotsford chapter of Special Olympics BC. Knight and other Mariners coaches are going to be delivering soccer sessions across the province on behalf of B.C. Blind Sports, and developing a training template which can be passed along to provincial organizations across the nation.

Soccer, adapted for visually impaired individuals, is played five-a-side on a reduced-sized field sur-

rounded by boards.

The goalkeepers are sighted, and they give direction to the players. The game is played with a noisemaking ball to help the players track it.

Blind soccer is a

Paralympic sport, but Canada doesn’t currently have a national program. The hope is that the Mariners’ work will pave the way for Canada to one day send a team to the Paralympics.

It’s certainly heady stuff for a local soccer club.

“We’ve reached out to other countries that do have blind soccer programming, just to receive some guidance from

s ’s The Abbotsford News i Th ek e Carrier W

them on how they do things,” Knight said.

“It’s an exciting project, for sure.”

The Mariners are also assisting

the local Special Olympics group with soccer coaching education and camps.

“We’re delighted to have the opportunity

to reach out to these other agencies, and give the club a bigger standing in the community, if you will,” Knight said.

Heat have plenty of depth up front From A35

end of last season.

The second line, then, would start with centre Ben Walter, and we’ll flank him with free agent signee Ben Street (27 goals with the Wilkes-Barre/ Scranton Penguins last year) and rookie Sven Baertschi, one of the top offensive prospects in hockey.

We still haven’t found spots for a trio of players who suited up for NHL games with the Flames last season – Lance Bouma, Roman Horak and Greg Nemisz. So we’ll put them together on the third line.

Heat captain Quintin Laing and physical winger Akim Aliu formed an effective checkingline partnership last season, so we’ll keep them together and slot in rambunctious youngster Carter Bancks on the other wing.

That’s four solid lines, and we still haven’t made room for a couple of highly touted rookies (Max Reinhart and Michael Ferland), several members of the Heat’s supporting cast last season (Adam Estoclet and Ryan Howse, among others), or former highly touted prospects aiming to reestablish themselves (Mitch Wahl and Bryan Cameron).

It could be argued Reinhart deserves a spot in our hypothetical lineup. But who do you take out?

Considering Ward plans to keep just 13 forwards, the battles will be fascinating.

The Heat bench boss is evaluating forwards based on three criteria – work ethic, consistency, and the

ability to slot into certain roles.

“We’ve got to find guys who fit the right positions, who can play to their capabilities within a role, consistently,” he explained. “It becomes more of a slotting thing.”

DEFENCE While the forward corps boasts plenty of depth and versatile parts, the same can’t be said of the defence.

With mobile blueliners Clay Wilson and Brian Connelly having found new hockey homes in the off-season, only one D-man on the roster – smooth-skating third-year pro T.J. Brodie – has a track record of point production at the AHL level. And if not for the NHL lockout, he likely wouldn’t even be here.

Beyond Brodie, the Heat have three other defencemen under contract with significant AHL experience – returnees Joe Piskula and Chris Breen, and Joe Callahan, a free agent signee who spent last season with the Hamilton Bulldogs.

Each of those players fits the classic stayat-home mould.

Battling to get into the lineup are returnees James Martin and Nick Tuzzolino; Brady Lamb, who signed with the Flames out of the University of Minnesota-Duluth last spring; and Zach McKelvie, a free agent addition who played 39 games with the AHL’s Providence Bruins last season as a rookie pro.

Perhaps the most interesting name on the Heat’s training camp roster is Steve

McCarthy. The Trail, B.C. native has 302 NHL games on his resumé with the Chicago Blackhawks, Vancouver Canucks and Atlanta Thrashers, and he’s coming in on a professional tryout contract after spending last season with Zurich of the Swiss A League.

A big part of Ward’s

focus on the blueline is forging effective partnerships.

“A lot of D stuff is based on partner success,” he said. “It’s a relationship between two players.

“Whatever the talent may be or whatever the situation may be, we have to try and find people that can play together.”

GOALIES Leland Irving was the last remaining member of the Heat’s original 2009-10 roster, but the Flames elected not to send him to Abbotsford this fall because they didn’t want to risk losing him on waivers.

The Heat should be fine in goal, though, Continued on A40

with Danny Taylor and Barry Brust.

Taylor was phenomenal after joining the Heat in early December of last season. The journeyman keeper posted the eighth-best goals against average in the league (2.29) to go with a 22-13-3 record and a .924 save percentage, and he earned the starting gig in the playoffs.

Brust has a track record of AHL success. In 2010-11 with the Binghamton Senators, he went 29-19-1-2 with seven shutouts, a 2.53 goals against average and a .925 save percentage during the regular season. The

Senators would go on to win the Calder Cup, but Brust saw limited action in the playoffs as top prospect Robin Lehner took over as Binghamton’s No. 1 keeper.

Brust, who spent last season in Germany with the Straubing Tigers, signed a one-year AHL contract with the Heat in August.

Ward is looking for one of the goalies to seize control of the No. 1 job, but he noted the top spot on the depth chart could fluctuate throughout the season.

“I think it’s just the ebb and flow of a tough league,” he explained. “It’ll be merit-based.”
