Can you spare a warehouse? By Diane Strandberg THE TRI-CITY NEWS

A Tri-City institution could be homeless unless a benefactor can be found to provide warehouse space to the Share Family and Community Services toy drive. Share has until tomorrow (Thursday) to move out of the Andres Wine building and is busy putting boxes of donated toys for next year’s Christmas Toy Shoppe into commercial storage and other spaces. see SHARE NEEDS, page A6

A world champion boxer and a mourning mother are teaming up to promote a world without bullying. Evander Holyfield, a five-time world heavyweight champion, hosted a fundraising event Monday at Fraserview Centre in Vancouver to support the Amanda Todd Legacy Fund, which was set up to raise funds for anti-bullying education and programs to help young people with mental health issues. see HOLYFIELD, page A8

PoCo pans grow ops Residents, mayor agree but the feds make weed rules By Gary McKenna THE TRI-CITY NEWS

A group of Citadel Heights residents want the city of Port Coquitlam to intervene and stop a licensed marijuana grow operation in

a home in their neighbourhood. Doug McRae, who lives in the area, said residents surrounding the house are scared that the neighbourhood could be a target for criminal activity, putting other homeowners in danger. “Think about a house or grow op being raided by gun-carrying criminals,” he told council

during Monday night’s meeting. “That is what the people in Governor Court and Royal Court are living with everyday.” He said councillors need to come up with actions to make it clear that marijuana grow operators are not welcome in PoCo — licensed or not. Keith Harrison, a resident of the area since 1989, said the smells

coming from the house have hurt his quality of life. He also said he has noticed an increase in vehicle traffic to the home since the grow operation began. “What is the difference between a licensed grow operation and an illegal one?” he said. “There should be no growing commercial plants inside residential houses.”

Mayor Greg Moore said he shares residents’ concerns but added there is little the city can do. Many municipalities have struggled with similar issues, he added, noting that Surrey has recently sent letters to the federal government calling for changes to the medical marijuana regulations. see ‘OUTRAGE’, page A7

Cops seek PoMo B&E suspects

SNC-Lavalin picked to build evergreen

Suspects caught on video leaving Westhill home Port Moody Police are asking for the public’s help in identifying two suspects believed to be involved in a daytime break-in last November. A man returning to his Westhill Place home at about 3:30 p.m. on Nov. 29, 2012 noticed the door was open and a man was standing on his balcony. The suspect fled but the owner went outside and confronted a man who was seen walking quickly away from the home and towards a waiting vehicle. The owner used his cellphone to get a video of the man and an accomplice. After a brief argument, the suspects got into the vehicle and drove way. Police found the suspects had fled in a stolen

A consortium led by SNC-Lavalin has been awarded the $889-million contract to design, build and finance the Evergreen Line SkyTrain extension to Coquitlam. The province picked bidding group EGRT Construction, which is made up of SNC-Lavalin plus eight partners or subsidiaries. Major construction is slated to begin in February but details of where it will start have not been released. The job entails building the 11 km line from Lougheed Town Centre in Burnaby to Coquitlam, with a combination of elevated and at-grade guideway and a 2 km bored tunnel. Lougheed Town Centre Station will also be expanded and six new stations will be built, with provision for three potential future stations. A vehicle storage building and facilities for integrating transit as well as pedestrian, vehicle and bicycle access will also be built. The project is expected to create 8,000 construction jobs and the region’s newest rapid transit line is to open in summer 2016. SNC was picked as the preferred proponent last fall out of a short list of three qualified bidding groups. The others were EL Partners and Kiewit/Flatiron Evergreen Line. A community relations team is to work with residents, businesses, motorists and others to provide traffic pattern changes or delays and other project information in different languages.

Big bucks sought for indoor tennis options City has none of three options in five-year plan By Sarah Payne The Tri-CiTy NeWS

Six years after the Coquitlam Tennis Club first started lobbying council for a new public indoor facility, a feasibility study has offered up three alternatives — none of which are in the city’s five-year plan. It was a disappointing blow for Kiyo Breiting, a passionate tennis advocate who has been representing Tri-City tennis players on the city’s sport council. “We really would like to have it within five years because we’ve been waiting six years already,”Breiting said. Several tennis groups have made pitches to council over the years, suggesting everything from up to four more outdoor courts at Town Centre Park to an indoor facility in the city’s northeast. In 2011, Coquitlam

Wong while Lawrence Wong squares off against Chico Siniecki on the next court Tuesday morning at Coquitlam’s Town Centre Park. ponied up $10,000 to evaluate the feasibility of a tournament-level facility. Matching funds were received from Tennis Canada last spring and a recreation consultant was hired to do the study, which found: • of Coquitlam’s 34 outdoor courts, 21 are in good condition, seven are in fair condition and six are in need of major upgrades; • Coquitlam has fewer courts per 1,000 people compared to six Metro Vancouver cities but Coquitlam’s are in better

condition; • tennis is a growing sport in Canada, with participation rates up 18.5% from 2008 to 2010; • and in 2011/’12, 433 Coquitlam residents played in a public league, compared to 379 four years earlier. The study suggested three options for improving tennis facilities. Alternative A ($1.5 million) would improve the existing facilities, re-purposing little-used sites needing major repairs and clustering more courts together in

fewer locations. Breiting said the club would like to see the city choose Alternative B ($7.5 million), which would build a public indoor facility with at least six courts. Brian Johnston of Professional Environmental Recreation Consultants Ltd. said in his presentation to council that such an option would turn a 100-day activity into a year-round operation, allowing more people to take part in an already popular — and growing

— sport in the community. And while an indoor facility brings an initial capital investment, Johnston said they “usually result in no operating deficit,” citing an indoor facility in North Vancouver where an operating surplus is paying down the capital costs. Alternative C ($13 million) would establish an international tennis centre with eight outdoor and eight indoor courts as well as spectator seating. A staff report notes such a facility

would “significantly enhance competition and sport tourism opportunities” but there may be better sites elsewhere in the Lower Mainland. Tennis Canada would provide up to 50% of the funding but would also control the facility. Breiting said the committee prefers the second option so local groups can decide on programming and tournaments. A new indoor facility is needed because the only option is the private People’s Court in Coquitlam, which can be

expensive, Breiting said, and is shut down during snowfalls. “We want to have affordable public indoor tennis courts,” Breiting said, adding there are many such facilities in Vancouver and the North Shore, meaning local players have to travel to play in tournaments. Council agreed to receive the report for information and will include it as a component in the parks master plan slated for completion later this year. spayne@tricitynews.com

Coquitlam misses out on BC Summer Games The Tri-CiTy News

The B.C. Summer Games will not be coming to Coquitlam in time for the city’s 125th birthday in 2016 — or even two years after that. The municipality had bid to host the event but, as first reported last Friday at www.tricitynews.com, the B.C. Games Society announced that Abbotsford would host the 2016 event and Cowichan Valley the 2018 multi-sport extravaganza. Coquitlam council unanimously voted last spring in favour of putting a bid in for the games and was aiming to hold the event in 2016, just in time for

the city’s 1 2 5 t h birthday and the o p e n ing of the Evergreen Line. A 2018 bid STEWART package was also submitted as a backup plan. Mayor Richard Stewart said in a press release that he is disappointed but congratulated the communities that won the bid. “We wish both the city of Abbotsford and Cowichan Valley all the best in their hosting of the B.C. Summer Games,” he said.“In the end, Coquitlam athletes will still have great opportunities to compete at

the provincial level and we will always be supportive of excellence in amateur sports.” Lori M a c K a y, Coquitlam’s general manager of parks, recreation and culture, said there are still plenty of opportunities for the community to

that hosting the games would serve as a launching point for its new sports tourism strategy, highlighting new and upgraded venues such as the Poirier Sports and Leisure Complex and the Town Centre Park field complex. gmckenna@tricitynews.com

Share needs lease help continued from front page

But the executive director of the social service agency said the temporary solution is unsustainable and Martin Wyant is putting the call out for help. “We need anywhere from 2,000 to 3,000 sq. ft. of warehouse space to store toys for the Christmas program and overflow food,” Wyant said. Share is hoping someone with empty warehouse or storage space can provide a home for its toy collection and will be “creative” on the leasing arrangement — providing the space at low or no cost. For years, Share has benefitted from a large amount of free storage space in the Andres building in Port Moody, which kept administration costs low and provided ample space for sorting and storage. But that building is in the eye of the storm for Evergreen Line construction and so Share has to move. In previous years, the Toy Shoppe was even held at Andres — needy parents picking out items for their children. But with leasing rates and space at a premium, Share is scaling back its space requirements from 15,000 sq. ft. A smaller space will mean some challenges for the longstanding program and Wyant said the Toy Shoppe might be different next year. He is adamant, however, that there will be no scaling back of the holiday program, which puts toys

moderately sickly blob… into the embodiment of health and fitness.” Jacobs assembles a three page to-do list of both common and odd ways to improve his health. He tries many different diets, including raw food, veganism, high-protein, calorie restriction and extreme chewing. Jacobs also experiments with different workouts, including pole dancing, Strollercise and Finger Fitness. At one point, he tries the Caveman Workout and runs both barefoot and shirtless through NewYork City’s Central Park. Jacobs’s book is a bounty of information about health and fitness, and the appendix lists the health regimens he has added to his life. Salvage the Bones is another one of my top picks of 2012. Jesmyn Ward has written a moving, brutal account of a family’s struggle to survive in poverty in rural Mississippi. The story takes place over a period of 12 days before, during and after Hurricane Katrina. Ward tells the story of Esch, a 15-year-

ne of the things I like best about starting a New Year is looking forward to the books I will read. It is also fun to remember the titles that I enjoyed reading in the previous year. I would like to share some of my favourite books of 2012: I thoroughly enjoyed Doppler: An Enchanting Modern Fable about one Man and his Moose by Norwegian author Erlend Loe. Shortly after his father passes away, Andreas Doppler falls off his bike on a forested path and hits his head. Doppler spends a couple of weeks at home recuperating, and thinking about his life and the father whom he never really knew. He has grown tired of his job, home and routine. Although he is married with two children, on impulse he decides to move to the forest alone. He adopts a motherless baby moose he names Mungo.Together, Doppler, Mungo and a cast of interesting characters interact in and out of the forest environment to create a charming, funny story. Another humorous book is Drop Dead Healthy: One Man’s Humble Quest for Bodily Perfection by A.J. Jacobs. The author and Esquire magazine writer describes his quest, at 41 years of age, to change from a “mushy, easily winded,

She is placed into foster care just outside of Munich. On her way to Munich, Liesel’s brother dies and the first book she steals is the Gravedigger’s Handbook. Liesel learns to read with the help of her foster father. A Jewish man whom the family hides in their basement writes a book for her on the painted-over pages of Mein Kampf. Liesel develops an insatiable desire to read. She steals books from a variety of places, including the mayor’s house and a Nazi book-burning bonfire. What makes this well-written book so unusual and compelling is the fact that the narrator of the story is Death. From Death’s perspective, the reader views WWII from a unique angle that explores the plight of both civilians, Jewish and otherwise. For more book suggestions, call or visit your local library, where the staff can recommend many titles to keep you reading throughout 2013.

Roles of the best man and maid of honour

eing chosen as a best man or a maid of honor is a significant and meaningful honor. Those roles have evolved over the years, but these special participants must still perform some of the traditional duties of the past, including serving as the official witnesses to the ceremony. The following is a rundown of the various duties maids of honor and best men are now expected to handle once they’re chosen for these distinguished honors.

and groom. The maid of honor will help the bride get dressed and help iron out any mini-emergencies that should crop up. The best man will help ensure all of the ushers are dressed and get the groom to the wedding on time.

Prior to the wedding

At the reception, the best man is expected to give a toast and the maid of honor may share some words as well.

Before the wedding takes place, the maid of honor will closely assist the bride-to-be with many of the important decisions related to the look and the feel of the wedding. She typically accompanies the bride to dress shops to select gowns for the bride and bridesmaids. Much in the same manner, the best man will assist the groom-to-be with choosing tuxedoes or suits and also with coordinating with the ushers to ensure they know when to go for fittings. Although the best man will serve as a sounding board for the groom, traditionally the bride and her bridesmaids have taken on the majority of the wedding planning, so the maid of honor can expect to play a larger role than the best man. The maid of honor may be asked to delegate certain assignments, such as helping to find wedding vendors or addressing invitations. She may go with the bride for makeup and hairstyle trials. Together with the bridesmaids, she will plan a bridal shower party and a bachelorette excursion. She may select a wedding gift for the couple and present it on behalf of all the wedding attendants. The best man and maid of honour will coordinate the bachelor/ette party.

Wedding day On the day of the wedding, the maid of honor and the best man will act as a support system for the bride

During the ceremony, the maid of honor will hold the bride’s bouquet while she participates in the wedding. The best man will keep the rings safe until they are needed.

Our space is your canvas

After the wedding The best man will be in charge of returning the tuxedoes to the rental shop, if necessary. He also may drive the newly married couple to the airport so they can depart on their honeymoon.

Conveniently located in the heart of the Tri-Cities, the PoCo Inn & Suites Hotel is the ideal wedding venue. Our elegant ballroom provides the perfect setting for receptions of up to 150 people.

Say “I Do” in Paradise

By Raelene Keiser, Maritime Travel

best over-all value & reliability.

ave you ever dreamed of getting married in a romantic tropical Paradise? More and more couples are responding to the age old call to run away and get married. The lure of a romantic tropical paradise is exciting in itself. When you combine it with the chance to escape the craziness of planning a wedding at home and accommodating the needs of hundreds of guests, doesn’t that sound irresistible? Here are a few tips to help you plan one of the most important days in your life!

Do keep in mind the budget of your guests. Although you may have always wanted to stay in an over the water bungalow at an exotic South Pacific Island, it may not be something your guests can afford. Perhaps that may be a great trip for your first wedding anniversary! Will any of your guests be bringing children? You may then wish to consider a family friendly resort versus an adults only property. Your Destination Wedding Specialist can assist you with the planning and negotiate the best prices. Did you know that depending on the number of guests you have joining you, the Bride & Groom can almost travel free and just pay the tax!

When it comes to weddings away, there are a few key points to consider. Location, ambiance, food, activities, wedding amenities, special extras, and more. A Destination Wedding Specialist will have booked many wedding groups and can provide first hand knowledge and experience to ensure you stay at the right resort or get married on the right cruise ship. All inclusive resorts are very popular for weddings as they provide great value with virtually everything included in the price. Do plan early, as resorts limit the number of weddings per day and the best accommodations are the first ones to sell out. Many resorts offer a free basic wedding package with options to upgrade or add extras. Would you prefer to have your wedding barefoot on the beach or in a simply but beautifully decorated wedding gazebo? The Destination Wedding Specialist will have toured the wedding facilities at many resorts and have contacts with wedding co-ordinators at the destination. We also know which suppliers offer the

Weddings, Receptions Special Events & Meetings

Although Mother Nature can occasionally be finicky with weather, there are certain times of the year that are more apt to have clear, sunny weather than others. In the Caribbean & Mexico, hurricane season is from June – November, with fall usually having the most chance of tropical storms. Depending on the destination, there are legal requirements to get married in a foreign country. These can include a waiting period, licensing applications, blood tests and possibly translating your legal documents into the official language of that country The Destination Wedding Specialist can help guide you through the process. After the initial planning it is time to look forward to the memories this special day will bring. What a great way to begin your new life together surrounded by your friends & family in a tropical paradise!

WEDDINGS

Something Borrowed, Something Blue, just before your special day, it’s all about You! By Linda McLeod, 2nd Look Day Spa

s the months of planning unfold for the big wedding day, a Bridal Spa Day is a perfect way to relax, unwind and take a break from the stress of all the planning. And, a Special Spa experience is a wonderful way to bond and have fun with your bridal party. Here are some tips that will help in planning that fun filled Spa Day.

ORGANIZE & PLAN – Decisions, decisions! As the organizer, you want to make it easy to get to so location is key. Decide if this event will be at a local spa or a destination, weekend spa. With either decision, first choose the time of day that is most convenient for everyone involved; and second choose the services that will relax and prepare everyone for the big day. If you don’t already have a spa that you go to, spend some time visiting a few spas to see how they will accommodate your group, and take some time during this

process to enjoy a service or two. Destination Spas or a weekend getaway is an excellent and fun way to totally unwind before the wedding day. ESTABLISH A BUDGET – Budget is important! Most Spas have a website and you can always let your fingers do the walking and go online to see what the cost is for the services you are considering and the length of time each service will take. Some spas will offer group discounts of 10% to 15% and that is a big plus. Also, most spas will require a deposit for a group booking so be prepared to handle that when you are booking your group. It is also important to know what the cancellation policy is in the event you need to cancel.

BRIDES – it’s all about YOU! It is your time to relax and get rid of those wedding jitters and tensions. The wedding party is there to help you so get them involved in the planning and decision process for this fun day at the Spa. Bridesmaids usually will share in the costs and may even pay for the Brides treatments. Imagine how much the bride will appreciate having all her girls together for a day of pampering before her big day. And remember Brides, it is your turn to be a lady of leisure!

RELAX AND ENJOY – If the spa day happens to be in the last few days before the wedding a real celebration may be in order. Inquire if the spa you are visiting has champagne available or if you can bring your own. If you do make a day of it, some spas will offer mini-appetizers or inquire if you can bring your own food into the spa.

Grade 12 art students show their best before grad By Gary McKenna The Tri-CiTy News

Mieko Graham-Carty is a self-professed bird lover who has a fascination for Celtic mythology. So when it came time to put a piece together for the Emerging Talent art show at the Evergreen Cultural Centre, her depiction of Morrigan, the Celtic goddess of war, seemed like a fit. The end result for the Grade 12 student at Coquitlam’s Gleneagle secondary school is a 6’6” skeleton of a bird made of plaster-covered foam and chicken wire, one of several pieces art enthusiasts can view at the ECC until March. Graham-Carty said the sculpture is based off of drawing of mechanical animals she created several years ago. This is the 16th year the Emerging Talent art show has been held in the Tri-Cities and it features young artists from across School District 43. More than 50 works are on display from 40 entrants who will be continuing their studies at post-secondary art schools and have already been accepted at major institutions outside of Canada such as the School of Visual Arts in New York and the Art Institute of Chicago. Many will also be attending Vancouver’s Emily Carr University of Art + Design. Alanna Hofe is another artist who will have work featured at the Emerging Talent display. The Grade 12 photographer has two pieces depicting dolls and another with a model look-

PdA Family Day (a day before BC Family Day) explores family ties and nature Place des Arts in Coquitlam invites families to shake off mid-winter blues with a day of exploration into family history and the beauty of nature at the next Family Day at PdA next week. This edition of Family Day at PdA features tours of three exhibitions: • “Shaped by the Past,” multiple media by ARTforce Collective; • “Tribute to Arts,” oil on canvas by Nino Dobrosavljevic; • and “Capturing the Vibrancy of Nature,” multiple media by the Passionate Outdoor Painters (continuing from PdA’s January exhibitions). Participants can then choose from a variety of all-ages, drop-in style workshops based on the artworks they’ve seen, including: • Family Collages with Joy Hanser of ARTforce Collective — participants are encouraged to bring photocopies of family photographs for this project; • Artist Talk and Tour of “Tribute to Arts” exhibit with Nino Dobrosavljevic; • Nature Printing using parts of plants to print a unique piece of artwork that reflects the beauty of our local surroundings. As a bonus, Family Day at PdA attendees can participate in a public weaving session for the centre’s ongoing Social Fabric Project. Visitors are encouraged to bring a special “thread” to weave into Place des Arts’ 40th anniversary tapestry. Family Day at PdA, which runs from 1:30 to 3:30 p.m. on Sunday, Feb. 10, is an opportunity for people of all ages to learn more about art and engage in creative activities inspired by the gallery exhibitions at the centre in a fun and relaxed environment.

Express put brakes on losing skid Team snaps six-game losing streak with OT winner in PG By Gary McKenna The Tri-CiTy News

The Coquitlam Synergy took on Central during a raucous under-21 female soccer match at Town Centre Park on Sunday night.

The Coquitlam Express broke a sixgame losing streak in dramatic fashion Sunday night The club completed the back-to-back road trip against the Prince George Spruce Kings with a 4-3 overtime victory in front of close to a thousand hockey fans at the Prince George Arena. Coquitlam’s Bradley Ryan broke the deadlock with three minutes left in the overtime period on feed from linemate Adam Rossignol. Rossignol opened the scoring midway through the first period, but Prince George responded with goals from Jake LeBrun and Jace Hennig. Justin Georgeson evened the score for Coquitlam on a penalty shot later in the opening frame, but Jake LeBrun scored the go-ahead goal for Prince George, his second tally of the game. Coquitlam’s Ben Israel was able to even the score on the powerplay in the second period, the last goal that would be netted in regu-

Coquitlam did not fair quite as well the night before against the Spruce Kings. Prince George’s Coltyn Hansen scored a hat trick in the match that saw Coquitlam fall 5-3. The Express fell behind early and despite two goals from forward Will Cook, was unable to get back in the game. Huggins stopped 27 of the 31 shots he faced and neither team managed a power-play goal. The Coquitlam Express will continue its road trip on Friday when the team plays the Vernon Vipers at the Wesbild Centre before heading to Penticton to play at the South Okanagan Events Centre.

Wingrove remembered with bursary for student athletes Money will help minor lacrosse players pursuing post-secondary A bursary fund to assist Coquitlam studentathletes has been setup in memory of the late Trevor Wingrove, a longtime local lacrosse star who also worked as a manager with the city. The fund is being setup in conjunction with the Coquitlam Foundation in the midst of the organization’s “granting season”, when local residents and community groups have the opportunity to apply for grants, bursaries and scholarships. Deadline for applications is Feb. 15 and more information can be found at www.coquitlamfoundation.com. Wingrove, who died of cancer in 2010 at the age of 42, had been the general manager of corporate services with the city city of Coquitlam and enjoyed a long career in lacrosse. The fund will award cash bursaries to graduating high school students who have played lacrosse with the Coquitlam Minor Lacrosse Association for at least two years and are enrolling in a post-secondary institution, training program or career-training program. The fund has been seeded with an initial deposit of just under $5,000. “The Wingrove family

Before he died of cancer in 2010 at the age of 42, Trevor Wingrove was an accomplished city manager in Coquitlam and a former lacrosse star. has had a 42-year relationship with Coquitlam Minor Lacrosse and we are thrilled the fund will allow a CMLA studentathelte to further their post-secondary educa-

tion,” the family said in a statement. Wingrove started playing lacrosse in 1972 at the age of four. He won a total of eight provincial championships while

wearing a Coquitlam Minor Lacrosse uniform before moving on to star with the Coquiltam Jr. and Sr. Adanacs. In 2011, the Coquitlam Minor Lacrosse Association renamed its famed Dogwood Tournament the Trevor Wingrove Memorial Tournament and established the Trevor Wingrove Inspirational Player Award. “I think he would be happy to know that we are hopefully going to help people like him to get ahead in the world even though it is only in a small way,” said Les Wingrove,Trevor’s father. The Coquitlam Foundation is pleased to accept donations to the Wingrove or any of its other funds.

JOHNSTONE, George Born on March 19, 1924 in Aberdeenshire, Scotland. Died at home January 22, 2013 in Port Coquitlam. Predeceased by his sister Jean RichardsBond, brother William (Bill) and grandson Michael JohnstoneBreen. Survived by his wife & “honey darling sweetheart” Violet, daughters Shirley (Gil) Berkson, Barbara (Glenn) Grimmer and Janice (Graham) Rannie, grandchildren Tyler and Cassandra Berkson, Walter (Alycia) and Alex JohnstoneBreen, and Isaac Grimmer. He is also survived by his sister Evelyn (Rod) Hourston, brother Robert, and sister Irene Bennett and many nieces and nephews. After centuries of Johnstones in Aberdeenshire, and with the migration of many Scots, George came to Canada with his family as a four year old on the SS Athenia. The family settled in Vancouver, and George worked as a merchant seaman as a teen, followed by service in WWII. He worked many years in logging camps in BC, and had his own water taxi company to transport forest workers. After an industrial accident left him with one arm, he went back to the logging camps and was the only forest worker with one arm in BC at the time. When work in the forests became too much for him, he worked for the Coquitlam School District #43 until his retirement. George liked a challenge and learned to fly planes with his one arm, eventually owning his own Cessna and Lake Amphibian planes. Well into his retirement, he enjoyed his “toys”, operating his own excavator, Caterpillar and tractors on the farm upon Burke Mountain, and travelling in his motorhome. He favourite place was a well-equipped garage where he could fix or fabricate anything. Most of the furniture in Dad and Mom’s home were his own creations. George was strong in his convictions, firm, fair and wise. He was compassionate to animals and humans alike, and was not without a hearty sense of humour. George was an active member in the Army, Navy Air & Force Veterans Unit 26 (South Vancouver) and the Royal Canadian Legion Branch 133 (Port Coquitlam). No service will be held by his request, but there will be a gathering of family and friends in the spring. In lieu of flowers, donations to the BC SPCA or the Heart and Stroke Foundation would be greatly appreciated. First Memorial Burkeview Chapel 604-944-4128

Keeping on top of local government

Chambers of Commerce play an important role in their communities. Not only do they represent businesses at various levels of government, they serve the community by providing opportunities to hear from the political leaders of the time. Last November, Premier Christy Clark came to the Tri-Cities to share her perspective on the importance of small business, job development and her vision for the future of BC government. The large crowd included prominent members of the Tri-Cities community with their own concerns regarding business in BC. The Premier stayed at the luncheon to field any questions from attendees. On Tuesday February 5th, the Tri-Cities Chamber will be hosting Adrian Dix, MLA of Vancouver-Kingsway and leader of the New Democratic Party, at a special luncheon at the Executive Plaza Hotel in Coquitlam. Like the luncheon with Premier Christy Clark, this is an important event that provides members of our community the opportunity to hear from government leaders and ask questions. Tickets are available from the Chamber website and at the Chamber office. Mike Hind At the Chamber, we cannot forget about the importance of local government. In the weeks before the Provincial election this May, we will host a number of all-candidates forums in each of the four provincial ridings in the Tri-Cities. These are open to the public. We encourage all Tri-Cities residents to attend and ask questions of the folks who would like to represent you in the Legislature. We also provide the opportunity for locals to meet and greet their Mayors. In the summer, we host our annual Mayors Barbecue where the Mayors of Coquitlam, Port Coquitlam and Port Moody will meet with BBQ-attendees in a casual setting. As the Chamber of Commerce, we feel that we have a responsibility to our members and the community to provide these opportunities to hear from and question our political leadership on all levels. We hope to see you at one of these events. Sincerely, Mike Hind Executive Director, Tri-Cities Chamber of Commerce

3D Golf Performance is a Coquitlam-based indoor golf facility using the most advanced technology available today for instruction and club fitting. The Chamber is pleased to present them as a guest blogger on our website this month. Visit our blog at www.tricitieschamber.com to see the VIDEOS that accompany this article. Winter can be a great time to train & practice Today’s tip is a reminder that practicing in the off season can be the best time to be working on your swing. This is the time you can solely focus on making the necessary swing changes without being distracted by ball flight and any performance-based results. Start practicing with purpose today. The power of alignments It’s vital to understand the concept of alignments. In golf, it means to move things into line or the relationship between one thing and the other. The alignment between the club, arms and body provide consistency and power. The grip position • Left wrist hinge pin is parallel to the leading edge of the face. • The first knuckle of the trailing forefinger is directly behind the sweet spot. The start position • The club shaft points to the centre of the hips (at the belt buckle) to help promote coordination between the body and arms. • Through the pressure points in the grip, the elbows align down towards the hips and connect the upper arms to the body. • The forward/tilt alignment of the spine to the ground • Stance alignment needs to be parallel to the target line. This includes club face, feet, knees, hips and shoulders. The back swing • The arms remain in relation to the body throughout the swing. • Proper knee alignment creates stability. The start down • The alignment of the shaft to the left wrist during start down provides the correct delivery line with power, control and balance. 3D Golf Performance 604.521.4653 www.3dgolfperformance.ca

Around The Chamber

Feature Member

Community Integration Services Society (CISS) Community Integration Services Society (CISS), founded in July 1990, is a non-profit society based in Port Coquitlam and North Vancouver. The Society is governed by a volunteer Board of Directors, and provides day program community inclusion services for adults people with developmental disabilities. Currently all services are directed at supporting individuals primarily in the community through employment and volunteer work, educational activities as well as social and leisure programs. How did you get into this business? In 1990, there was a call for proposals for the development of new services for individuals who were moving from Woodlands Institution into community living group homes to have day program supports. The manager of vocational services at Woodlands Institution (Chris) and an instructor in the Community Support Program at Douglas College (Glenn) responded to an ad in the paper requesting for interested parties to submit proposals for programs for those who were leaving Woodlands Institution. As a result they put forth a proposal to open the first program which was named Inlet Enterprises. What is your favourite thing about what you do? The most rewarding part of our work is helping people with disabilities and their family access services and programs in their communities. For some, it may be the first time they had the opportunity to participate in generic programs which all of us as citizens expect to have access to and do our whole lives. What do you get out of being a Chamber member? CISS has been a member with the Chamber for several years and have a lot of access to other small businesses in the area as a result. The Chamber is a big supporter of equal rights and was instrumental in the 10X10 Initiative in 2010, which encouraged businesses to assure that 10% of their employees were people who had a disability ; hence creating many opportunities for people who may not have been considered to be employable in the past.

What is the best kept secret about your products/services? Our staff are so creative that one particular staff, Angel Guzman, created his very own Ipad App (My Cashier) so that the individual he supports was able to do his job more independently. This app is a free app which you can access from your Ipad by typing: itunes.com/apps/handcashier How do most of your clients/customers hear about you? Mostly through Community Living British Columbia (CLBC) who is a crown corporation of the Government which provides funding sources for people with developmental disabilities. Families and individuals also hear about our services through the vast network of services and supports throughout the province and the federation. Our newly re-vamped website (www.gociss.org) also allows individuals to apply for services online. What is your most current project at CISS? CISS is currently in the process of applying for a Heritage Revitalization Agreement (the very first in Port Coquitlam). The HRA will protect Melissa Park which is the second oldest building in the area, and CISS’s home. Melissa Park was constructed in 1910. In 1960, Harold Salway purchased the house and completed extensive renovations before opening what was then called Melissa Home, a facility for outpatients from Essondale hospital.
