Grizzlies head to provincials

■ K ETTLE D RIVE K ICKS O FF S ATURDAY

In the program’s first year the AA team earns a berth in the AAA championship Eric Welsh The Progress

On Dec. 1 the GW Graham Grade 8 Grizzlies football team will take to the field at BC Place Stadium for a provincial title game against Notre Dame. It will arguably be the most significant football game a team from Chilliwack has ever played. Yes, there have been minor football teams who have advanced to provincial championships. The midget Giants did it in 2009 and the peewee Giants did it in 2010, coached by current GWG bench boss Laurie Smith. Admirable accomplishments both, but here’s what makes the Grizzlies so exceptional. We’re talking about a first year program. At this time last year, GWG football was little more than a concept on paper. Starting a program is no small task and usually carries substantial growing pains. Taking a group of teenagers, some with football experience and some without, and moulding them into a winning team is supposed to take time and most coaches will be happy fielding a competitive team that might be good enough to make the playoffs. So what do these kids do? They roll through the regular season with just one setback. They lose 32-22 to Pitt Meadows in week one of the regular season, and they don’t look back. They finish 5-1, good for first place in their AA conference. Then the fun really starts. Smith’s crew is bumped up to the AAA playoffs. The reward for his middleweight squad is the opportunity to get clobbered by the AAA heavyweights. Continued: HISTORY/ p6

Gains being made helping children at risk But more needs to be done, council hears Jennifer Feinberg The Progress

Chilliwack has the highest percentage of vulnerable and atrisk children and youth in B.C. That was one of the troubling facts offered by Karen Steegstra, Chilliwack’s Child and Youth Community Coordinator, in her National Child Day report to Chilliwack council on Tuesday. “The visible need we might see as we drive through the

downtown core is only the surface of challenges facing many children, youth, and families in Chilliwack,” Steegstra told council. “I was shocked to discover that Chilliwack has the highest percentage of vulnerable children and at-risk youth in our province.” She was also “deeply disturbed” to learn that a Community Action Team had to be established to “combat the

sexual exploitation of youth” in Chilliwack, and that cocaine use here is relatively minor compared to the prevalence of the highly-addictive crystal meth. For many local kids, she noted, the only meals they get are the ones dished out in school breakfast and lunch programs. But in meeting a range of service providers and directors of local programs, Steegstra also said she was very impressed by the “high level of compassion” they showed for the at-risk and vulnerable, and the passion for

ensuring youth get the resources needed to be successful. It was noted that Early Years programming had significant social benefits, according to the research, and these types of prevention and intervention programs and services are offered locally at Gateway, Chilliwack Community Services, Sardis Doorway and the Fraser Valley Child Development Centre. “When it comes to collaboration among agencies and Continued: PRIORITY/ p7

Chilliwack hopes to map crime trouble spots

“ ”

Jennifer Feinberg The Progress

A map illustrating the areas of the city with the most crime is going to be produced. The map idea, approved by council at Tuesday meeting, emerged in the form of a recommendation from the city’s public safety advisory committee. City staff was asked to develop a public awareness program and information for property owners in those areas deemed to have a

Woman still missing A 53-year-old Chilliwack woman with medical issues is still missing nearly two weeks after last being seen near her home at Watson and Vedder Road. Laverne Hazel Vetters is 5’9” tall, 150 pounds, with long grey hair and blue eyes. “This behaviour is very unusual for Laverne and we are really concerned for her safety right now,” said Cst. Tracy Wolbeck. “Of particular concern is that Laverne has not returned home to feed or look after her dog that she is very attached to.” Police are looking for anyone who may have information regarding Laverne and are encouraged to contact the Chilliwack RCMP at 604 7924611.

Currently they are seeing higher theft from vehicles ~ Councillor Chuck Stam higher crime rate. Coun. Jason Lum asked if the committee chair, Coun. Chuck Stam, knew if those crime-ridden areas tended to move around or were they fairly static, because if

they fluctuated, perhaps a website would be better than a paper map. Coun. Stam responded that it was fairly static, but it was the type of crime which often changed with the season.

“Currently they are seeing higher theft from vehicles,” he said. More than 80 per cent of the vehicles were not locked, according to RCMP information.

“Hopefully staff can bring back a report on how this can work,” said Mayor Sharon Gaetz. She noted the RCMP already issue a regular “crime hotspots” bulletin which pinpoints areas with higher crime rates. Stam said later the bulletins are issued on a monthly basis, whereas the high-crime maps will cover a longer period of up to six months, and will have the highest crime areas highlighted.

Last cars roll across old Port Mann Bridge Jeff Nagel Black Press

Drivers who wanted to take one last commute over the old Port Mann Bridge have missed their chance. All traffic is now using the new span after the westbound lanes were redirected onto the new crossing last weekend. Eastbound traffic has been using the new bridge since late September. “As of Friday night or early Saturday morning, the last vehicles would have crossed the old Port Mann Bridge,” said Transportation Investment

Corp. spokesman Greg Johnson. “It was a smooth traffic flip.” The new bridge officially opens Dec. 1 with eight lanes and drivers will have one week to try it for free before tolls kick in Dec. 8. Just five lanes are now open. “We’re just putting on the finishing touches,” Johnson said, adding the electronic tolling system is being tested and no problems have been detected so far. Another year of construction work will continue on the western portions of the Highway 1 corridor through Burnaby and Vancouver, as well as the eventual disman-

tling of the old Port Mann Bridge in 2014. The full 10 lanes won’t be open until late 2013 when the last two lanes are opened. When complete, there will be two lanes in both directions that will act as local traffic-only lanes directly connecting Surrey and Coquitlam. Those drivers – who account for a large portion of Port Mann traffic – will no longer have to merge with other highway traffic to cross. But drivers who enter at 152 Street and exit at Cape Horn to take those sepa-

rated lanes won’t get the 25 per cent discount offered to registered HOV lane users who cross at peak times. To get the discount, westbound drivers would have to detour east in Surrey and take the 156 Street on-ramp dedicated for HOVs to cross the bridge in the HOV lane. Eastbound drivers from Cape Horn will have their choice of local traffic, HOV or general lanes and would exit at 156 if they take the HOV option. Drivers must tick the box identifying themselves as HOV users when they register through the TReO tolling system or they don’t

get the discount, which only applies on travel in HOV lanes with at least two occupants and only on weekdays between 6:30 and 8:30 a.m. and 4 to 6 p.m. Johnson said most drivers are ticking the HOV box so they get the discount when it applies, even if they normally drive alone and would rarely qualify. Tolls were to start at $3 but the province announced in September a half-price discount that will run until at least March – drivers who register with the TReO tolling system by then will get the 50 per cent discount for a full year.

The Chilliwack Progress is among the top newspapers in North America, the LocalMedia Association announced this week. The association, formally the Suburban Newspaper Association of North America, and representing 2,200 papers, awarded The Progress second place in its circulation class in its 2012 Newspaper of the Year contest. The Progress finished behind the Sarasota Observer out of Sarasota, Florida. The competition was judged by the Donald W. Reynolds Journalism Institute, Missouri School of Journalism. It included four different circulation classes; The Progress, with a circulation of just under 30,000, was judged in the 22,501-37,500 category. Of the 12 finalists, The Progress was one of only three Canadian papers to finish in the top three. According to the judges, “The Progress is well organized and easy to follow. The coverage has a good mix of news, events and people stories. High quality color benefits a strong advertising package. Headlines are concise, clear and informative. Sports photography is especially eye-catching.” This is not the first time The Progress has been honoured by the association. In 2008 The Progress finished first in its class.

Kettle campaign keeps the soup pot boiling

TRADE-IN TO WIN!

Jennifer Feinberg The Progress

The highly recognizable Salvation Army kettles will start showing up around Chilliwack starting this Saturday. The seasonal kettle drive runs Nov. 24 until Christmas Eve. “It’s our main fundraiser,” said Ian Pratt, community ministries director for Chilliwack Salvation Army. Bob Provost is one of the kettle volunteers, and he’s been helping to fill the containers for about a decade. Provost has been involved with the kettle campaign for at least 10 of his 12 years volunteering for Sally Ann. “If we didn’t have these people to step forward, our programs would not exist,” said Pratt. “They’re a vital part of what we do.” The efforts of volunteers fill the kettles, which fund all the main programs of the Salvation Army, from the Christmas hampers to the soup kitchen, emergency shelter and thrift store. The kettle first appeared on the streets of San Francisco, California in the early 1890s, according to the Salvation Army website. Brainchild of Joseph McFee, the kettles were used to raise funds for a shelter in the waterfront district. Captain McFee suspended a large cooking pot from a tripod and placed a sign above it that read: “Keep the pot boiling.” They’re still actively looking for kettle volunteers in Chilliwack for this season to ring the bells and solicit donations. “Every year it’s harder and harder to find people to man the kettles,” said Pratt. “That could be due to people feeling like they have busier lives, together with an aging population. We could use a few more.” It takes dozens of volunteers to brave the elements and the “no thank-yous.” To volunteer, Call the Salvation Army Care and Share, at (604) 792 0001 which is at 45746 Yale Rd Chilliwack.

HISTORY from Front “After our regular season finale, when we were in the handshake line with Abbotsford, their kids were literally laughing,” Smith said. “They thought it was hilarious because now we had to go face the top seed in AAA.” In their playoff opener they travel to Burnaby to face the storied Vancouver College Fighting Irish, one of the dominant programs in BC high school football. The Grizzlies win, 24-18. Fair enough. Any given Sunday right? They’ll get knocked back to Earth in the next one.

The next one is against the St. Thomas More Knights. On a chilly Monday night at the Burnaby Lakes Sports Complex, Emilio Pineda rips off 214 rushing yards and three touchdowns. Jared Lengert adds 72 yards and a major. Down 14-8 to start the third quarter, the Grizzlies stay patient and run their singlewing offence to perfection. Ethan Mastin leads a defence that shuts down the Knights, and when the final whistle blows, the scoreboard reads 30-14 and GWG is off to provincials. Any given Sunday doesn’t happen twice in a row, does it?

Building Your Future

At some point, you’ve got to tip your hat. This isn’t a fluke. These kids are really, really good. “Those traditional schools that win it every year, they’re big schools with 60-70 kids on the roster, and I’m excited that we’re able to compete at that level,” Smith observed. “And if we succeed in the final, it will be our school’s first provincial championship in any sport. Seven years of sports at GWG, and for us to come in and be the first would be remarkable.” So they wait for Dec. 1 and a date with Notre Dame. This one’s under the big top with an 8:30 a.m. start. The Grizzlies face another storied program

that just thwomped Lord Tweedsmuir 30-0, and Notre Dame will almost certainly be favoured to win. But something special’s happening with these Grizzlies, and at this point, would anyone be crazy enough to bet against them? “I was looking at the champions going back to 1920, because BC high school football has been around for a long time,” Smith said. “You can look back on 80 years of provincials and not see Chilliwack anywhere on there. For us to have this chance to become the first, that’s exciting.” Catch a provincial preview in next Thursday’s Chilliwack Progress sports section.

Children must be a priority, councillors told

VICE. IOUS QUALI TY. SIZZLING SER

We are now taking orders for Fresh Grade ‘A’ and Free Range Turkeys!

Priority from Front community partners, Chilliwack is setting an example in the Fraser Valley,” Steegstra said. “Collaborative practice is one of the ways agencies in Chilliwack are working together to put together a unified plan that best serves its clients.” One of the ongoing challenges has been publicizing the existing services available in Chilliwack, but a locally run website is changing that. “After only six months, Child and Youth.com has proved to be a great asset in getting information regarding services, workshops and programs to families and service providers.” She also had a hopeful message for the future, stating she looks forward to partnering with various forces to continue building the healthy community that is Chilliwack. “While our community of Chilliwack is doing its best with the resources available to provide appropriate services to children and youth, the policy makers in our province and country need to be pressed to make children and families a priority.” Steegstra ended with a quote by F.D. Roosevelt, adding that it summed up the mandate of the Child and Youth Committee and its agencies: “We cannot always build the future for our youth, but we can build the youth for the future.”

RE/MAX Nyda Realty 19th Annual

Randy Newbury: Paws and applause It was a rather cheerful day. The brilliant sun poured into Randy Newbury’s neat and tidy doggie salon. I kept my sunglasses on to shield my eyes from the sun but was enjoying the warmth against my face. Randy greeted me rather cheerfully and as I found a seat and Ana made myself Macedo comfortable, four, furry customers were dropped off for their regular grooming. I was struck by Randy’s honest enthusiasm, his confidence and charisma; something that puts him in good stead with both human and canine visitors alike. Randy grew up in London, Ontario but eventually moved to Stratford, where he lived for the most part, until early adulthood. His mother did some odd jobs but stayed mainly at home, raising the children while his father, who was a rather old-school British sort, worked for 3M, the scotch tape company. Randy did enjoy school

although he never quite fit in. “My high school was very sportsy but I wasn’t. I was very artistic and creative and I felt like a fish out of water.” He tried army cadets as a youngster but admits that camping out in February, with snow on the ground, just wasn’t for him, so he gave it up. Then one day, his homeroom teacher introduced him to the St. Mary’s Community Players and this as they say, changed his life forever. “Mr. Carl Zvonkin suggested that I try theatre and this intro-

duced me to a whole new group of people who held the same values as I did and who had the same interests that I had. I found acceptance and I wasn’t judged. This was life changing for me and the most satisfying thing that I’ve ever done,” he enthused. He started theatre at the age of 15 and had a small part in the production of the Music Man. From there, he did Oliver Twist and has never looked back. “I met my wife, Susan, on the set of the Music Man. I was dazzled by this

A quick look outside will tell you we’re tightly in the grip of November. That means rain. Lots of it. And darkness. Late into the morning and earlier in the afternoon. It’s a dangerous time of year. For motorists, and especially for pedestrians. Statistics from ICBC show almost a third of pedestrian collisions involving injuries or fatalities occur in November, December and January. A little common sense would go a long way to reducing those numbers. Like wearing bright clothing, ideally with a reflective strip or two, so motorists can distinguish you through the gloom. Cross streets using marked, and preferably lit, crosswalks. Motorists peering into the darkness through rain-slicked windshields are already coping with a lot, faded and swamped lane markings, the glare from oncoming headlights; the last thing they’re ready for is a dark figure bolting from the shadows across their path. When walking along the shoulder, where there are no sidewalks, face oncoming traffic. That way motorists can at least see your face, and you will be able to see what’s coming. Drivers can also do their part to improve safety during these dark, rainy months. Ensure your windshield wipers are doing their job. Check that all the lights on your vehicle are working, and that the headlights are aimed properly so they don’t blind oncoming cars or pedestrians. When driving in difficult conditions use the low beams, as the high beams will just reflect the rain or fog, actually making it harder to see. Check your tire tread. Worn tires will take longer to stop, and are more likely to hydroplane. Most importantly, slow down and drive according to the conditions. ~ Black Press

A reality check on teen suicide in B.C.

VICTORIA – If you find Premier Christy Clark’s campaign against teen bullying to be superficial or even self-serving, I’ve got news for you. It’s potentially worse than that. With the greatest respect to the family of Amanda Todd, her tragic case isn’t representative of teen suicide any more than it is typical of high-school bullying. A clearer and more disturbing picture emerges from the latest report of B.C.’s Representative for Children and Youth, Mary Ellen Turpel-Lafond. It’s a survey of 89 child protection cases from 2007 to 2010, where 15 kids killed themselves and the rest inflicted serious self-injury, in some cases repeatedly. The word “bully” does not appear in the report. It speaks of domestic violence, physical and sexual abuse, addiction, and runaways targeted by street predators.

Three quarters of the kids were removed from their homes to protect them from their parents. More than half are aboriginal. Its key conclusion is that shifting traumatized and mentally ill teens from institutional care to foster homes isn’t working. Earnest but inadequately Tom trained foster parFLETCHER ents and social workers can’t cope with kids who need diagnosis, treatment and supervision. Without that, kids shuffled through foster homes an average of a dozen times in three years, with little attachment to home or school. Some were violent, no surprise given their formative years. I asked Turpel-Lafond

about the B.C. government’s recent focus on bullying. She said it’s worthwhile, and there are parallels between Amanda’s case and more common teen suicides. One is isolation at moments of crisis. “Say you’re a middle-class parent with a child who hasn’t come out of their bedroom in six months, or you have a boy in foster care who’s in his 14th home,” she said. “They both want to kill themselves, so what do you do?” Ideally, you intervene and get them to a child psychologist. Parents or guardians who can’t afford $150 an hour can wait months for the Ministry of Children and Family Development to arrange it. And in the meantime, our supposedly family-based foster care system sends them to school. “I’m really worried about how [school-based anti-bullying programs] will affect the most vulnerable kids, because you start

anonymously reporting someone as being a bully,” Turpel-Lafond said. “Yeah, we know they’re in the youth justice system. We know they’re troubled. By the way, they’ve been sexually and physically abused, jumped through 30 foster homes, and now we want to label them again?” This is not to suggest that the existing B.C. effort isn’t substantial. The ministry reports that there are 2,221 front-line staff positions, of which 219 are currently vacant. It’s notoriously difficult to recruit, train and keep child protection workers, especially in remote communities. Turpel-Lafond says her latest figures show the child and youth mental health service has 476 staff, with 21 vacancies and a government-wide hiring freeze. And many of those are doing double duty as community service managers. Those managers don’t even

have reliable data on case loads, she said. They just know they’re overwhelmed and many of the kids aren’t being reached. This is not about political blame. I can trace this problem back to when Grace McCarthy was children’s minister, and the NDP did no better. I’ve learned a bit about Riverview and Tranquille, asylums that were closed because of a modern belief that they were inhumane. At least they offered safety and medical care to even the most damaged people. Right now our enlightened, progressive society can’t even help most of the kids we know are at high risk.

I was wondering when our city and province were going to join the 21st century? Our dependence on fossil fuels has caused the Northwest Passage to stay open longer so I think it only fitting to send Alberta’s oil north through the melting Arctic. Maybe Christy Clark could research wave generated power? B.C. has a long coastline and wave generated power could bring much needed electricity to northern areas. It’s a constant power source that doesn’t harm nature in any way. It is more effec-

tive than solar or wind power and is not influenced by the weather. Please, Ms. Clark, check it out! And Sharon Gaetz, I have a question for you. In the November 13th issue of The Progress, I saw the concept drawings of the new downtown and was wondering if any of the new buildings will be built according to any of the LEED standards? I did see that the roofs of these new buildings do not have solar panels on them nor any greenscaping for insulation and water retention purposes. Where

Idling cars bad for environment The environment is getting to be more important to all of us. Car emissions especially have a lot to do with our environment. And I do think Chilliwack is lagging behind in many areas. One of my concerns is why Chilliwack has not did something about the train crossing on Young Road. Everyday traffic

builds up and most cars sit there idling, while the train makes many back and forth trips shunting cars and keeping everyone waiting. We built an overpass on Yale Road. Why can’t Chilliwack do the same on Young Road, or a tunnel? It would help the environment so much. Danny Bale

Young families hurt by age restrictions I would like to address a letter to stratas in Chilliwack. I am currently looking for a condo or townhouse for my daughter and I, and am completely blown away with the age restrictions. Over 90 per cent of available units with more than 1,000 sq. feet are agerestricted. I find this very rude. How come anyone over 45 years of age is allowed to have a large living area, yet those with children

are secluded to under 1,000 sq. feet? You will notice that these age restricted buildings sit on the market for a very long time. Remember that every month it sits on the market you lose out of maintenance/strata fees. Perhaps it’s time to vote that ridiculous bylaw out, and stop discriminating against young families and single mothers. Amber Gregory

Progress is the draw for new business? Pretty new buildings are everywhere, why would a company want to set up in a dying downtown with no character, just to pay high taxes, high rent and high operating costs? And the parking for these new residents and businesses? I guess it is at the old Safeway lot? If you are going to build it, why not build it right, why not build it as green as it can be? Please, Ms. Gaetz, check out LEED standards. Dawn Mackay

Academy of Music marches to own beat I wanted to adjust a statement made in this article: “All programming in the Cultural Centre will now be the responsibility of the Chilliwack Arts & Cultural Centre Society” is in error. The Chilliwack Academy of Music is still a Core Partner of the Cultural Centre, and provides music lessons, classes and special events to the community from its home at the Centre. Since its relocation to the Centre, it has recorded over 20,000 visits by people coming to make use of its programs. I hope that the community will not lose sight of the excellent and ongoing work of the Academy of Music during the transition of responsibility taking place in the building. “We’re still here!”

in a variety of ways – for example, in directing enforcement activities, allocating fishing access, and providing post-season accounting of returns.” Justice Cohen goes on to say: “I accept the evidence of those witnesses who said that conservation is best served by proactively preventing fish from being taken illegally from the water. Preventing the illegal taking of fish will likely involve a combination of community education and stewardship and on-the-ground enforcement activities. “Effective catch monitoring of all sectors is an important compo-

nent of this plan, as is the realistic allocation and identification of food, social and ceremonial fish to Aboriginal groups. I do not want to suggest that after-the-fact investigations are not also important; they are. Indeed, enforcement activities aimed at illegal sales may provide an effective deterrent to taking fish illegally out of the water.” On page 54 of the same volume: “In my view, preventing the illegal taking of fish should be the priority consideration when DFO is faced with focusing its resource expenditure within any of the three pillars.” John Newcomb Victoria

Cohen addressed salmon poaching Re: Salmon mystery far from solved (B.C. Views, Nov. 15). Discussing the Cohen Commission report on the decline of Fraser River sockeye salmon runs, Tom Fletcher writes, “Poaching on the Fraser? Cohen didn’t get around to that.” This is inaccurate. In volume two, chapter two, page 35, B.C. Supreme Court Justice Bruce Cohen states: “I am also concerned that Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) does not estimate illegal or unauthorized catch to use in its management of the fishery. This information could be helpful to fisheries managers

Our Experience Means We Get It Right The First Time

Last week I was invited on an annual tour of regional greenhouse operations growing poinsettias. Seeing some of the millions of poinsettias grown in BC for our local market and for export to the United States, I was not only impressed by the numbers grown but also by the quality of the plants. Our growers are to be congratulated for developing such a strong export market in our province. From the tiniest Pixie single blooms to huge, and I do mean huge, 10” and 12” pots that I could hardly get my arms around, there was quite a selection. Red varieties dominant the colour selection simply because of tradition, but whites are popular also because they can be Brian dyed and sparkled. Fewer pinks Minter are grown these days. Some of the newer varieties will add a lot of spice to home decors. One of the favourites is ‘White Glitter’, a red variety sprinkled with soft pink speckles. It is very different. Burgundy varieties are still popular for their designer colour, as is apricot, a pink with soft orange overtones. ‘Picasso’ is a unique variety the master himself would approve. The really hot new variety is ‘Ice Crystal’ with its bicolour white and cherry red bracts. New also is a ruffled deep red ‘Carousel’ and a hard-to-find red flowered variety with yellow and green leaves called ‘Tapestry’. There is a wonderful selection out there. Poinsettias are the number one flowering plant being grown in North America today not only because they embrace the holiday season but they also last so long and are easy to care for. They love a coolish window area free of any cold drafts and a room temperature of about 15-18°C. The greatest challenge for so many people is when to water and yet it is so simple. Just pick up the pot and feel its weight. If it feels a little light, simply give the plant a good drink of warm water. Don’t water again until the plant feels light once more. Heavy wet soils are the enemy because poinsettia roots are very sensitive to root rot. You’ll soon get the hang of it. Poinsettias add so much to our Christmas décor, and they combine well with many other plants to create some unique seasonal combinations. They are ready now to add an instant indoor festive touch.

Book tells the beginnings of hockey on the Pacific coast

Vancouver author Craig H. Bowlsby will be at the Book Man in Chilliwack on Saturday, reading from his new book Empire of Ice. The Rise and Fall of the Pacific Coast Hockey Association, 1911-1926. Vancouver did win the Stanley Cup. And so did Seattle and Victoria—

Community

in a league created a century ago. The PCHA rose and fell like the Roman Empire, but left its own mark on history. Now fans can re-live how the Patrick Brothers invented modern hockey, and brought the highest level of the game to the Pacific Coast, and to the world. This legendary league has never,

Thursday, November 22, 2012 The Chilliwack Progress

until now, been comprehensively recorded. Craig H. Bowlsby has unearthed much new information. He has debunked common misconceptions, and even solved many mysteries. Empire of Ice chronicles the rise of the PCHA to the pinnacle of its success, and then to its final, bizarre plummet. All the league’s exciting Stanley Cup struggles are

described in detail, as well as the trials, experiments and scandals of the regular seasons. This brings to new light the techniques and exploits of the great hockey stars of both West and East. Bowlsby will read from his new book at 2 p.m. Come early for free coffee, tea and cookies.

Sunset Boulevard at G.W. Graham

G.W. Graham Musical Theatre presents Sunset Boulevard from Nov. 27 to Dec. 1. The cast will be accompanied by a 23-piece orchestra “to bring this haunting, lush score to life,” says producer Matthew Webster. Based on the 1950 film of the same title, the plot revolves around Norma Desmond, a former star of the silent screen era, living in the past in her decaying mansion on the fabled Sunset Boulevard. When young screenwriter Joe Gillis crosses her path, she sees her big chance to make a comeback to the big screen. Romance and tragedy ensue. “It’s a rare Andrew Lloyd Webber gem, in that it’s been tied up in litigation for almost 20 years, and only now is available for amateur groups to license,” Webster said. “We may very well be the first school in Canada to be performing this very challenging musical.” Sunset Boulevard, Nov. 27-Dec. 1, at G.W. Graham theatre, with a preview matinee Nov. 25 at 1 p.m., $15, preview tickets $10 at Vedder Save-On, London Drugs, and the school.

Large cast for Creative Outlet’s Nutcracker Ballet Dancers at the Creative Outlet Performing Art Studio present the fourth annual production of A Nutcracker Ballet. This season features the largest cast to date -- with more than 30 dancers from five and up – providing the choreographers and directors the opportunity to introduce new dances and creative elements to the story, all while keeping the magic of the original storyline, the beloved characters and Tchaikovsky’s familiar melodies intact. Dancers transform from elegant party guests into delicate snowflakes, and bring the waltz of the flowers, majestic Arabians and fun loving vignettes to life. Continued: NUTCRACKER/ p30

Zach Power is Don Lockwood and Angelique Basson is Lina Lamont in Sardis secondary’s production of Singin’ in the Rain, which runs Nov. 27 to Dec. 1 nightly at 7 p.m., and 2 p.m. on Dec. 1. JENNA HAUCK/ PROGRESS

Singin’ in the Rain at Sardis secondary Get out your umbrellas. The well-loved musical Singin’ in the Rain is being presented by Sardis secondary musical theatre Nov. 27 to Dec. 1. “We’re taking on the classic musical with a brand-new cast,” said director Alison Guy. Singin’ in the Rain, which is described as one of the best musicals ever made, follows the lighthearted story of Hollywood performers dealing with the transition from silent film era to the age of the talking films, known as the “talkies.” A total of 24 performers from GWG will be singing and dancing their way into the hearts of the audience, supported by a large stage crew, set builders and about a dozen in the orchestra, directed by Kevin Biegel.

“Some of the performers had to learn tap dancing from scratch. Several had never danced or been in a musical,” she said. Choreography is by Karen Mason Albert, who has almost performed “miracles in getting non-dancers dancing,” Guy added. “They’re really excited about the production.” She highlighted the tireless effort by students Graeme Potts and Zach Power, who play the male leads, as Cosmo Brown and Don Lockword. “They researched the era, and worked so hard to become performers from vaudeville of the late 1920s and early 30s.” The real battle for any director of a young cast is mentoring them all into semiprofessional shape in a mat-

ter of months. “It’s really starting to blend. “I’ve always pushed the students to reach beyond the limits of a high school production,” she said. “And I’ve always believed there’s not that much difference between our kids and the ones who end up on Broadway. It’s just opportunity. “We have a huge pool of talent in Chilliwack of young people are very musical and creative.” How to present rain on stage for the famous singing in the rain scene actually became a technical concern. “They created a rain-maker but then we were worried about the electrical issues, so we might have to go with projected rain,” Guy said. The film version of Singin’

in the Rain starred Gene Kelly, who also directed the movie and provided the famous choreography that has him singing the title tune while twirling an umbrella in the rain. Costumes are by Ghezlaine Larochelles, and Delores Doerksen, whose dedication and ability to fill “countless” demands has been much appreciated, said the director. Every dollar spent on the $12 tickets goes to next year’s musical theatre production, as well as fine arts scholarships, Guy added. Singin’ in the Rain at SSS, by Sardis Secondary musical theatre, Nov. 27 to Dec 1, doors 6:30, show 7 p.m. First come, first served. Tickets $12 at the SSS office and London Drugs. Matinee on Dec. 1 at 2 p.m.

Come join Yuckay on his journey as he finds out what it truly means to be a platypus! The Ugly Duckling was written by the Danish poet Hans Christian Andersen in 1843. It went on to become one of Andersen’s best loved tales. Chicago native Marc Dunworth adapted and designed this familiar tale with an Australian twist. The Ugliest Duckling features a charming fusion of original didgeridoo music with a cast of colourful puppets with a tale that is poignant, charming and conveys a positive message.

Taking place in a small lake in Australia called a “billabong”, The Ugliest Duckling features a cast of vibrant and colourful creatures. The story follows a family of ducks who are flabergasted when their newest arrival isn’t a duckling, but a platypus named Yuckay! From the beginning, “Children already know these stories, I wanted to create a new adaptation Yuckay knows that he isn’t like his to reawaken interest and inspire little duck family and when his new audiences while still keeping the father patiently tries teaching him original message in mind.” how to fly like a duck - Yuckay can only swim! Discouraged by his – Marc Dunworth, creator of The Ugliest differences, and tired of not fitting Duckling in, Yuckay the platypus sets off on an adventure of discovery.

Leticia’s Story With her young son and daughter, Leticia arrived in Canada from Mexico in 2008. Early on she contacted Chilliwack Community Services for assistance with her citizenship paperwork and information about the community. Now, years later, her connection with the agency remains strong. She is giving back to the community, grateful for the support she received to navigate various systems and settle successfully in Chilliwack. While she studies advanced English at University of the Fraser Valley, Leticia is deeply involved in two different immigrant women’s networking groups and she seizes every opportunity to share her Hispanic food and culture at local community and multicultural events. She teaches ESL to migrant workers and is a volunteer in the CCS Healthy Living sessions arranged for newcomers to the city. Leticia’s daughter is following her example and is a volunteer as well. Through the CCS Immigrant Services program, she has become a mentor to another immigrant youth. Like her mom, she is giving back to her community.

Landing in a new country and starting a new life can present all sorts of challenges. Lack of English language skills, transportation or knowledge of local services makes it really difficult to arrange the basic necessities of daily life. Chilliwack Community Services reaches out to newcomers and provides a variety of settlement services to help make the needed connections to adapt and integrate successfully. • English language classes • Referrals to community resources • Settlement assistance • Orientation sessions • Interpretation and translation • Short courses on computer skills, citizenship test preparation, healthy living, etc. Volunteers work side by side with staff to assist in delivering orientation sessions, organizing field trips as well as serving as mentors and translators and interpreters. If you have a desire to help others in this way and build a welcoming community, please contact us at 604.393.3251.

ow did an illiterate son of a Glover become the greatest playwright in the World? He got someone else to write the plays! Presented by The Chilliwack Arts & Cultural Centre Society on November 29 at 7:30pm and based on the biggest theatrical debate of all time - did Shakespeare really write those famous plays? The Shakespeare Show is a cleverly written, brilliantly entertaining adventure complete with puppets, songs, satire and sword-fights! “Brings the Bawdy world of Shakespeare to life!” 5 Stars -Winnipeg Free Press

Equal parts absolute fact and utter nonsense, this is another brilliantly hysterical Monster Theatre adventure.

Volunteering helps kids grow strong UBC Professor Kimberley Schonert -Reichl reports on an experiment conducted with Grade 10 students in Vancouver. One hundred kids were divided into two groups of 50. One group was organized into volunteer work after school one day a week. The other group wasn’t. They took blood samples at the beginning and end from both groups. The experimental group, the ones volunteering, had lower cholesterol, improved stress hormone interleukin six and reported enhanced well being. She went on to report on something called the Happiness Project that has studied what makes people happy. Results from across 67 countries where they have conducted the study thus far have revealed three key ingredients. The three basic commodities that contribute most to happiness are gratitude, savouring experiences and helping others. Wealth or fame were not top of the list.

Chelsea Ohlmann is a Masters student at Trinity Western University who recently studied a group at Sardis Senior Secondary School known as the Alive Group. This was a group of students who met with a mental health counsellor to learn more about mental health. They Rob then learned how Lees to put together a presentation about mental health and suicide prevention. They showed the presentation to their teachers and got teacher recommendations for changes and teacher approval. The Alive Group was then coached on how to deliver the presentation to fellow Sardis students and middle school students. According to the McCreary Centre Trim: 5.81” Adolescent Health Survey, 92

per cent of high school students, when asked “who would you talk to first about a problem?” answered “my friends”. Based on the fact kids will talk to kids before they talk to adults, it is important we give them tools. Some critics might say, “you can’t train kids to help other kids”. The truth is, they do it whether adults like it or not. The wise thing is to give them skills so the direction they offer is the right direction. So the Alive Group presentations offer information about how kids can notice if a friend is having a problem. The next step is if they know their friend is having a problem, knowing what to say to encourage that person to get help from a trusted adult. To summarize the complex data from Chelsea’s research, the kids in the group that were helping others found a voice within themselves that was empowering and resilient. Being Continued: Giving/ p35

part of the group process, having something valuable to offer to their colleagues, was transformative. The research coming from early childhood studies reminds us that human beings are born with a powerful impulse to belong and to help. We are born with the ability to empathize. The more we exercise this empathy skill, the better we get at it. The better we get at it, the better our community becomes. The great news is, it doesn’t just help the recipients of help. It helps the helper, too. This is an important fact for parents, teachers and all those working with kids to keep in mind. Children have a lot to contribute. Encouraging them to volunteer and help others is one of the best things we can do for them.

First place Chiefs take on Cents The BCHL’s hottest team takes on an Interior division power this weekend as the Chilliwack Chiefs face the Merritt Centennials. The teams play a home-and-home. The Chiefs are in Merritt Friday night, and back home Saturday night for a 7 p.m. start at Prospera Centre. The Chiefs look to keep their winning streak intact (six) against a Centennials team that presents lots of problems. Chilliwack got to know Merritt all too well last season as members of the Interior conference. The 2011-12 Cents are similar to the 2010-11 team in their ability to play sound defensive hockey. Only Chilliwack, Penticton and the West Kelowna Warriors have yielded fewer goals than the Centennials, who cough up just 2.73 per game. Veteran netminder Tyler Steel is a big reason, winning 11 of

Lots to like Those are numbers that could, should he sustain them, win him the league MVP this year, writes Jacob Bestebroer

Chilliwack’s Ryan Donohoe (No. 22) digs away for a loose puck near Coquitlam goaltender Cole Huggins in Chilliwack’s 5-1 win last weekend. JENNA HAUCK/ PROGRESS

19 appearances with a 2.62 goals-against average and .913 save percentage. Merritt does struggle to put the puck in the net. Only three teams

have scored fewer goals than the Centennials, who are led by 19-year-old Maple Ridge native Regan Soquila. His 23 points in 22 games make him

Merritt’s only pointper-game player. Sebastien Pare and ex-Chief Derek Huisman lead the team with seven goals apiece. Five of Huisman’s

goals have come on the power play and the 20-year-old has 13 points in 22 games overall. Check Tuesday’s Progress for a weekend wrap.

Single point ends Giants season

The Chilliwack midget football Giants took a shorthanded

roster to Vancouver Island last weekend, facing the Cowichan Valley Bulldogs with a provincial semi-final spot on the line. The locals battled hard, but a rule unique to Canadian football left them on the short end of a 22-21 loss. Cowichan built up an early lead in this

one, scoring once on offence, then returning an interception for a major. The Giants blocked the convert on the second touchdown, and Michael Popvici took the ensuing kickoff to the house to close the gap to 13-7. Strong runs by Conner Herrmann, Josh Pretty and Filip

Horak got the Giants deep into Bulldog territory early in quarter two. Quarterback Klay Larocque finished the drive with a touchdown toss to wideout Robert Begg. Chilliwack added to their lead in the third quarter, with Conner Herrmann scrambling into the endzone to put the Giants up

21-13. But Cowichan Valley got a key single point on a missed field goal, then tied the game on a punt return TD. With less than 30 seconds left in the game, the Bulldogs booted the ball into the Chilliwack endzone for a rouge, a single point that ended Chilliwack’s season.

There is lots of positive news surrounding the Chiefs lately. The team won both their games last weekend to run their winning streak to six games. They now sit first overall in the BCHL with a record of 16-5-1-1 and are in ninth place in the national rankings. Only twice in their long history have the Chiefs won more than 16 times through their first 23 games. They won 19 of their first 23 at the start of the 1995-96 season and 17 times at the start of the 2001-02 season. For me the most positive thing happening right now is the fan support the Chiefs are getting. The atmosphere at the last two home games (both with crowds of more than 2,500) was awesome. You can tell the players feed off the energy of the crowd. Chiefs forward Josh Hansen continues to lead the league in goals with 18. That puts him on pace for 44 goals this season. If he can reach that number it would give him the second most goals in a season by a Chiefs player from Chilliwack, behind assistant coach Doug Ast’s 55 in 1994-94. Goaltender Mitch Gillam leads the BCHL in save percentage (.935) and minutes played (1,153). Those are numbers that could, should he sustain them, win him the league MVP this year. As good as he was last year, he has taken his game to another level this season. His play has sparked a few ‘Is he the best Chiefs goalie of all time?’ discussions, and I think he is right there with Curtis Darling. Darling’s numbers are not as good as Gillam’s but during his two seasons here, beginning in 2002-03, the Chiefs were nowhere near as good defensively and there was no question he was the team’s MVP both those season. Darling did do one thing Gillam hasn’t and that’s score a goal. The Chiefs have two games this weekend against the Merritt Centennials, Friday in Merritt and Saturday at Prospera Centre. If you haven’t been out to a Chiefs game yet, you can save a few dollars this Saturday by taking advantage of the promotion being run by Chilliwack Cash Mob. Check the Chiefs website for all the details. The annual Teddy Bear/Toque Toss will be held during the Chiefs home game versus the Trail Smoke Eaters on Dec. 2. Fans are encouraged to bring new stuffed animals or toques which they can throw on the ice after the Chiefs first goal. All animals and toques will be donated to Chilliwack Community Services. jb@chilliwackchiefs.net

TAYLOR Rodger Ken

Aug. 23, 1936 - Sept 7, 2012 It is with great sadness that we say goodbye to our dear Rodger, who TAYLOR passed away

at St. Maryâ€™s Hospital after a courageous battle with cancer. He left us peacefully with his wife Christine (Klingenberg) at his side. Rodger â€œwith a dâ€? was born in Hanna, Alberta and moved to Chilliwack as a child. He attended Sardis Elementary School, Chilliwack Middle, and Chilliwack Sr. Secondary. He lived most of his life in Vancouver where he worked as a building superintendent for BC Building Corporation until his retirement in 1995. He and Christine moved to the Sunshine Coast in 1997. Always a man who worked with his hands to make things better, Rodger renovated several houses, built ponds and streams - the couple were always busy with a project. He loved the water and built three trimarans, the last a 38â€™ beauty named Attamun. Many happy hours were spent together sailing along the coast and travelling in their motorhome across Canada and Mexico. Rodger is survived by Christine, his loving wife of 24 years; sister, Noreen; brothers: Richard (late Barbara) and Shawn (Maureen); and half sister Georgina. It broke his heart to lose his brother Ian (Bonnie) at the age of 47. Also missing this wonderful man are his mother-in-law Marie Klingenberg; and sisters-inlaw, Madeline (Doug) and Monica. Rodger is greatly missed by his nieces and nephews, cousins, friends, and his sweet little Chloe, who is still waiting for him to come home. Our most sincere gratitude for the wonderful care given to Rodger in his final days by St. Maryâ€™s Hospital ICU and ACU nurses, and Dr. Wadge, who all treated him with such kindness, compassion and respect.

In 1967 mom returned to nursing at the Chilliwack General Hospital and continued to practice until 1989. Nursing was a passion for Iris but nothing made her happier than having her family near her. Her family was her pride and joy and she also cherished her special times with her friends. Iris also en-

joyed walking, skating, dancing, biking, golf, bowling, bridge, baking, sewing, and knitting. She was an incredible mother and grandmother, we will miss her dearly. A â€œCelebration of Lifeâ€? will be held at Hendersonâ€™s Funeral Home in Chilliwack on Saturday, November 24, 2012 at 2 pm. Tea will follow. Irisâ€™s family would like to extend their sincere gratitude to the staff of the Cascade Lodge. The affection for mom and the exceptional care will always be remembered. Iris will live on in the hearts of her family and all those whose lives she touched during her full life. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Irisâ€™s memory to the Heart and Stroke Foundation of BC and the Yukon.
