Langley murderer appeals convictions Davey Butorac given life in prison in 2011 for killing two women MONIQUE TAMMINGA Times Reporter

Aldergrove serial killer Davey Butorac is appealing his conviction of killing two women.

Call us first!

Saying that Butorac poses “a real danger to the safety of the community,” a B.C. Supreme Court judge sentenced him to life in prison with no chance of parole for 23 years in February 2011. A jury found Butorac guilty of second degree murder for inflicting a brutal bludgeoning and strangling death of Abbotsford’s Gwendolyn Jo Lawton, 46, in March of 2007. Her body was found dumped down an embankment at Pemberton Hill in Abbotsford. He was also convicted at the same trial of second degree murder in the July 2007

beating and strangling death of 50-yearold Sheryl Lynn Koroll in Langley. Her body was found at a Langley City concrete plant. Both women were sex trade workers and struggled with drug addiction. His appeal was heard Wednesday in the B.C. Court of Appeal. Butorac is still facing a trial on a third murder charge. He is accused of the murder of Margaret Redford, 47, of Aldergrove. Her body was found in Bertrand Creek in Aldergrove on May 20, 2006. At the time, Butorac was living with his father

in a townhouse complex a short distance away. Butorac doesn’t have a criminal past. His parents described him as loving, in their letters to the court. There was nothing in Butorac’s background, no abuse or drug issues that might explain the degree of rage and violence he displayed in killing the two women, said Crown at sentencing. The Crown’s case was based on DNA blood evidence found in his car and on his shoe matching his victims. His trial for Redford’s murder will take place in 2014. No date has been set.

Accused carjacker remains behind bars Woman was carjacked at knife point and now her alleged attacker faces multiple charges MONIQUE TAMMINGA Times Reporter

A man dubbed the “Falconridge rapist” for terrorizing a Calgary neighbourhood seven years ago, raping two women at knifepoint and assaulting another, is behind bars again — charged in the violent carjacking of a woman in Langley City on June 8. Andrew Aurie Jefferson, 28, was in Surrey Provincial Court on Wednesday, facing two counts of robbery, uttering threats, possession of property obtained by crime, assault causing bodily harm, and assault with a weapon.

The victim provided police with a description of both the suspect and her vehicle, a blue 2008 Hyundai Accent. The suspect was last seen driving northbound on 200 Street. Five minutes later, a member of the Langley Core Enforcement Team spotted the Hyundai travelling on the Langley Bypass.She turned and followed the vehicle as it made several turns and finally stopped in a parking stall in the 20600 block of Logan Avenue. “The officer used her vehicle to block the escape of the Hyundai and the driver was issued verbal commands to which he responded, and he was immediately arrested at 7:42 p.m.” said Marks. — with files from Kevin Diakiw/Black Press

Fire causes oil slick in Nicomekl River Foam used to fight fire causing oily sheen to be seen in river MONIQUE TAMMINGA Times Reporter

A suspicious fire at an abandonded Langley City house — the third time it has gone up in three weeks — also resulted in an oil slick in the Nicomekl River.

A suspicious fire, one of three in three weeks at an abandoned home in Langley City, has had an added consequence — the cost of a spill into the Nicomekl River. A Langley City resident took pictures of booms that had been put down in the river days after the May 24 arson fire. They were placed in the waterway to soak up the foam used to fight the fire in the abandoned house on Park Avenue.

“The foam itself is biodegradable and not harmful to the environment, however one of its properties is to act as a degreaser and therefore it can carry oils that may have washed into the storm sewer system from our roadways, into the river,” wrote Pete Jokisch, with the City’s engineering department, to a City resident. “We are continuing our investigation in order to rule out other possibilities, however I think until it dries up, we will continue to see small amounts of oily sheen in the river.” Three booms were placed in different areas of the river. Last Tuesday’s fire was the third time in less than three weeks that continued, PAGE 5

Two men shot early Saturday

MONIQUE TAMMINGA

Two men in their 20s were shot near the Tall Timbers area early Saturday morning. According to the Langley RCMP, just before 5 a.m., two men drove to an area near 232 Street and 56 Avenue. The pair met up with an unknown man

who produced a firearm. A struggle ensued and two shots were fired into the vehicle, said police. Both victims were hit by bullets. The driver managed to take both of them to Langley Memorial Hospital. They have been treated for their injuries. Langley RCMP say the incident appears to a targeted, drug-related inci-

dent. Both will be OK and are co-operating with police. Police continue to look for the shooter. Dogs were called out to search for the shooter, but the search didn’t turn up anything. Over the weekend, Sgt. Ravi Pawar said that this was related to low-level drug culture and the public isn’t in any danger.

Langley RCMP have arrested a woman and two men believed to be responsible for mail theft at numerous Langley City apartment buildings last week. More than 30 Criminal Code charges have been recommended for the 20-year-old Langley woman, 27-year-old Langley man and a 32-year-old man of no fixed address. These break-ins occurred in the first week of June and mail was stolen at six separate apartment buildings, said police spokesperson Cpl. Holly Marks. Surveillance video was provided to police to assist with the investigation and photographs were circulated to Langley RCMP members by email, and at roll call by the lead investigator.

On June 5, while patrolling Langley City, an officer, who is brand-new to the detachment, spotted two of the three in the 20400 block of Douglas Crescent, said Marks. “The officer conducted a street check and found the two to be in possession of tools used for break-ins and stolen mail. It is possible they may have been preparing for another break-in,” said Marks. Both were arrested for break and enter and the investigation suggests there was a third individual involved in some of the break-ins. Langley RCMP has recommended charges for the trio , including multiple counts of break and enter, possession of break-in tools, theft of mail, possession of stolen property, and breach of recognizance.

They have now been released from custody. The investigation has been quite extensive and required collaboration between several units within the detachment, said Marks. Teamwork between general duty, the Crime Reduction Unit and the Core Enforcement Team contributed to this investigation coming to a swift resolution. Langley RCMP would like to offer some prevention tips to the public to minimize the opportunities for mail theft. They suggest retrieving mail as soon as possible after delivery; not leaving mail unattended in your mailbox overnight; having someone retrieve it on a daily basis if you are away and checking the physical security of your mailbox.

Abandoned property a ‘headache’ 604-888-9000

Transients often break into house, sleep underneath it, and also break into neighbouring homes: residents from PAGE 3

the Langley City fire department was called out to battle fires set in the abandoned, derelict home at 20435 Park Ave. The resources this home has taken up through fire and police has been extensive. In total, 15 firefighters were called out last Tuesday. Ten paid on call firefighters were there for about 23 hours, two hours each, at a total extra cost of $553, said City administrator Francis Cheung. The other five are fulltime and are already paid for that day, he mentioned. The property, which is severely overgrown with trees and vines, is not of much value. But it is located between a single family home and the Telus switching office, making it important for the fire to be contained, said City fire deputy chief Pete Methot. Neighbours say the property has been abandoned for the past eight years and has been a constant headache for them. One neighbour said the City has received several written complaints about the home. Transients consistently break into the house, sometimes even sleeping underneath it, and often break into neighbouring homes as well. Cheung said the City has the power to order the home owner to demolish the building on the property, but council rarely, if ever, takes that action. “It is only used as a last resort,” said Cheung last week. He doesn’t foresee staff recommending any action against the home owner. “If needs be, council can consider remedial action but that is last resort. Council can direct the owners to do whatever, whether it be demolition or to

fix it up and bill the owners for the costs,” said Cheung. “It is rarely used because we have to demonstrate the City has done everything it can do, and document that it has asked them to do whatever we have asked. It’s a lengthy process.” Cheung points to the former motel on 200 Street that was housing prostitutes, drug dealers and a heavy criminal element, forcing nearby residents to endure late night parties, arrests, fights and drug paraphernalia. “It took us three years to collect enough evidence so they couldn’t challenge it in court,” said Cheung. In the end, the City pulled the motel’s licence. It created an instant change in the neighbourhood. Abandoned, older homes left in Langley City has been a major problem for several neighbourhoods. Only a few weeks ago, a delegation of neighbours came to City council asking it to be more proactive on homes that sit empty and are left to be occupied by squatters. The City is in transition and many bungalow-style homes are being bought by developers and left to sit unoccupied. The homes are quickly stripped of all the metal and anything else left of value. They are often lived in illegally. The properties are not kept up, said neighbours, as is the case with the Park Avenue home. Residents in the 201 Street and 53 Ave. area, where there are plans for a condo development by Weststone Properties, said their neighbourhood has been reduced to a slum. “We have a number of those homes, some are pending development,” said Cheung. We encourage them to get a demolition

WE SAY

THEY SAY

Unnecessary inclusion

Another argument for apathy

angley Township council’s dogged determination to include an urban subdivision on the Wall farm as part of a university district makes no more sense now, after final approval has been given, than it did when it first came up two years ago. The university district should apply to properties that are immediately adjacent to Trinity Western University. Several of these are already outside the Agricultural Land Reserve, and are owned by the university. Expansion of TWU will be good for the Langley and B.C. economies, and the university is a valuable member of the community. Its students and staff live here, spend money here and add to the educational skills this province has. These skills are critical to B.C. having a bright economic future. There are very few people within Langley who object to a university district that is contiguous to TWU. They are supportive of a vibrant university that has room to expand. There are other municipal politicians outside Langley who do not think TWU should expand. Some of them are anti-TWU, simply because it is a Christian university. This is discriminatory and has no place in a modern, multicultural Canada. Others object because the TWU expansion plans don’t fit within the region’s green zone, which is highly questionable in itself. Vancouver and Burnaby politicians shouldn’t be making decisions on land use in Langley Township, just as Township politicians have no business deciding on land use in downtown Vancouver or Metrotown. Maybe that‘s why Township officials and council added the Wall property to the university district. But the Wall property is very different. It is separated from TWU by a river and busy rail line. There’s no easy access to the campus. It’s within a large farm, located in the ALR, which generally has excellent soil and has been operated as a farm for more than 150 years. And it has no real connection to TWU expansion plans. The Wall property should never have been added to the university district. Langley Township council would have been wise to listen to Councillor David Davis, who farms a neighbouring property and took the delegation seat to make an impassioned argument against its inclusion. He knows what he’s talking about. Unfortunately, the council majority didn’t listen and stuck with the Wall subdivision. This will go down as a bad decision for Langley’s future.

on’t do as we do, do as we say.” That’s the message the BC Liberals are sending to residents following the announcement that salaries for senior political staff in government ministries and Premier Christy Clark’s office are not just going up, but going up by an obscene amount. B.C. cabinet orders dated earlier this month provide for an 18 per cent wage increase for Dan Doyle, Clark’s chief of staff, to a maximum salary of $230,000. This from a premier who campaigned on fiscal responsibility to help families and gain some ground on an out-of-control deficit. This from a government that has continually told teachers, educational support staff, nurses and others in the health care industry to tighten their belts because there is nothing in the kitty for wage increases. Most in the private sector have tightened their belts to the max, not seeing any wage relief in years. Add to that the burden of increased taxes, a jump in utility rates and the rising cost of day-to-day living, and residents of B.C. are wondering how they’re going to get by. That’s when citizens need to have faith in government — all levels of government — to come to the rescue and pull the country, province or city out of trouble. But it’s getting harder to have faith in government officials. Whether it’s senators in Ottawa charging thousands of dollars in outlandish expenses from the public’s purse, or government officials in Victoria receiving unfathomable pay increases, it’s no wonder residents are so apathetic when it comes to voting in a leader. —Nanaimo News Bulletin (Black Press)

21ST CENTURY PARENTING

Fathers do not ‘babysit’ their kids Editor: Father’s Day has just passed. As the day approached, I thought that I would put fingers to keyboard and share a thought I had on being a Dad in the 21st century. I have two boys (one and four). I regularly take them out to the park, and they often accompany me when I am running errands. Doing this is no problem and I keep them happy, safe and secure. However I constantly see people looking at me, as if it is a rare sight to see a Dad out with his kids. I literally feel like I am under a microscope, as people examine what I do and

how I do it. It is as if they are waiting for me to screw up. Nothing bugs me more than people who ask if it’s my turn to babysit, or if I’m “Giving Mom a break,” or being told I’m doing a “good job.” Dads do not babysit — we parent. Asking if I’m giving Mom a break implies that it is a chore to take care of my own kids. Also, if you would not feel the need to say “good job” to a Mom, then why say it to a Dad? What people do by saying “good job” is to imply that we are expected to fail. Men are just as capable of caring for children as women, and we bring a

unique viewpoint and skill set that does nothing but benefit the development of our kids. I understand pop culture has us thinking Dads are like Homer Simpson or like any other sitcom Dad (immature, unintelligent, exceptionally poor role model and weak), but common sense should tell us that the reality is that modern Dads are intelligent, caring, strong and very capable. We should all give Dads a little more credit. Mike Major, Walnut Grove

Suite license fee is nothing but a tax grab Editor: I agree with Jerry Stanger’s letter (“Secondary suite tax targets lowerincome people, The Times, June 13). The new tax and license fee bylaw for secondary suites doesn’t make sense and is very unfair and unreasonable. A ridiculous $350 annual licensing fee on secondary suites is beyond my understanding. What is it for? I mean I can understand the water and sewer increase, but an annual license fee? What for? What good will it do for the tenant or for the landlord? This is especially true if someone’s suite is not rented out. It’s a big hit for the home owners, seniors and for the new buyers. Generally, when one buys their home, they like to call it home sweet home. It’s not so sweet any more, it seems to many people. Property taxes are already way too high for this area. How can it be home sweet home when you have to pay so much for the house itself. Then this big

hit comes along. It makes you think twice before buying a house. People are better off living in rental homes or buying townhouses or condos. There is less home insurance, less property taxes to pay, less clean up, a lower Hydro bill and no secondary suite issue whatssoever. We bought a brand new house a year ago, and like the freedom of no strata fee, and all of the issues that come with it. At the same time, houses are so costly. I’m sure many of us when we buy a house with a basement suite are thinking the secondary suite will help us with the monthly mortgage or monthly high living expenses. I mean that’s how we thought and now this bylaw changes the whole picture for everyone, and for the new home buyers. I hope the public comes together on this and makes the Township of Langley reconsider their bylaw on this.

It’s way too much. What good does or will a annual license do for the tenant or the landlord? It’s another way of making some revenue out of our pockets I say. It’s almost like when you go get home insurance and they charge an extra fee if you have tenants living there. That I can understand. When two families live in one place, there are more chances of fire. It is important to protect the place. But what is the reason to charge an annual license for your own secondary suite it the house that you paid for already. I tried going to https://www.facebook. com/StopLangleyTownshipTaxGrab, but I had no luck. Maybe it’s been removed or temporarily not working.

‘Aggressive’ not right word to describe Ed

Editor: I am sorry to be writing again about Kevin Steele. On Thursday at 6:30 p.m., we met Kevin and Ed at Douglas Park. It is true Ed does not meet the requirements of a service dog, but he is a companion to Kevin. Who is to say it is not needed? This dog is laid back and not aggresThe

sive (“Disabled man’s dog aggressive and often runs loose,” The Times, June 13.) That could change, if another dog meets him, as that is what animals do. Anyone should look him and Ed up, as they are always uptown. Then they can decide if he is aggressive or not, and let The Times know if that is true or false.

He had Ed on a leash, but when you are in a wheelchair, and with one leg, it makes it difficult to manouver and keep the dog safe. To use the word “aggressive” in Ed’s case is not the true facts. Tom Tonks Sr., Langley City

Loss of habitat is regrettable Editor: The June 13 Times article about Langley’s Museum of Flight getting a new home leads to mixed feelings for me. On the one hand, I am glad that the museum is getting a proper facility, but on the other hand there is the loss of that fine meadow adjacent to the arboretum. That is regrettable. That this meadow will be lost to all the animals that inhabit it, especially the birds of prey, made me pause and reflect. Then I had an epiphany. Maybe the new Museum of Flight could have a exhibit of stuffed birds, possibly frozen in flight, hanging from the ceiling in remembrance. It does all tie in rather nicely with the flight exhibit. Greg Holmes, Langley

Many of us dumbfounded

Editor: Re: “University district approved by Township,” (The Times, June 13). Councillor David Davis gave an impromptu presentation from the public podium regarding building homes on ALR land at a council meeting. He went on to declare “I’m actually dumbfounded [that this is going to be approved].” Councilor Davis has joined the long queue of dumbfounded residents from this side of the podium over the past 12 months. On the bright side, he too will be able to help correct the situation in next year’s election. J. Beauman, Langley

Losing bus routes eyed as TransLink shifts service A review by TransLink has flagged underperforming bus routes that may be targeted for “service optimization” to wring more efficiency from the transit system. For a couple of years now, transit planners have strategically trimmed hours from some routes at times when buses roll by mostly empty and added more service to routes they think could carry more riders. Beneficiaries have included the 99 B-Line in Vancouver, where a 10 per cent increase in service has been added to reduce overcrowding. And an all-new White Rock-Langley route was also created to meet demand from passengers who couldn’t reasonably get between the two cities on transit. Overall, TransLink says the strategy has helped it increase the number of of transit trips taken by 3.4 per cent while the average cost per trip dropped. But while the system has gained, there have been winners and losers. Richmond lost 5.5 per cent of its service hours — a change planners say is due to ongoing right-sizing to reflect the 2010 introduction of the Canada Line. And the northeast sector lost 2.3 per cent of its bus hours. The biggest gains were South of the Fraser (excluding south Delta) where 3.5 per cent more hours were added, the North Shore (up 3.4 per cent) and Vancouver (up 1.9 per cent). According to the review, some of the lowest performing individual bus routes are in south Delta, where the average cost to carry a passenger is $2.67, the highest in the region and nearly double the Metro average of $1.34. The per passenger cost was $2.13 in Maple Ridge/Pitt Meadows, $1.92 in the Tri-Cities and $1.84 South of Fraser (North Delta-Surrey-LangleyWhite Rock.) Vancouver had the lowest costs of $1.08 to carry the average passenger.

Most of the 25 poorest performing suburban bus routes are served with community shuttles, and include two in Ladner, two in Tsawwassen, two in Richmond/ Queensborough and

one each in Maple Ridge, Pitt Meadows and Lions Bay. The top performing routes are mainly in Vancouver and Burnaby. According to TransLink planner Peter

Klitz, poorly performing routes typically are in lower density areas where residents are more car-dependent and sometimes suffer from circuitous routes or the lack of a strong anchor destina-

with underperforming bus routes expect further frequency reductions, making transit an even worse option? Klitz said that could happen in some areas but the best solution is working harder to

ensure local land-use planning supports transportation. “We need to organize where we put people and jobs to maximize the effectiveness of the transit network.”

Airport celebrates 75 years Since the 1930s, Langley Regional Airport has been moving people and products, providing training, supplying jobs, and serving as a vibrant economic hub in the Township of Langley. A world-class centre for the aviation and aerospace industry — particularly the helicopter sector — in B.C., it is recognized across the country and around the globe as a facility of excellence. This month, the airport marks an important milestone and the public is invited join in the

celebration. On June 22, Langley Regional Airport turns 75 years old and festivities have been planned to pay tribute to the facility and all it contributes. “This is a really exciting opportunity, a chance to let people know about the airport and the role it plays in our community,” said 75th anniversary celebration committee chair George Miller. The head of Avcon Consulting, Miller served as manager of the airport since 1990, before handing that duty over to his son

Guy this year. “It is a great time to bring people together — people who have gotten to know each other through flying together, working or volunteering at the Airport, and people who are interested in aircraft and the aviation industry.” To kick off the celebrations, a massive air parade will be held on Friday, June 21. From 5:30 to 6:30 p.m., people throughout Langley and Aldergrove can look up to the sky and see 75 various aircraft circling the community.

Health Matters

Just as with the rest of your body, your eyes can begin to deteriorate with age. Some problems are well known, such as cataracts, and others are annoying, such as dry eye. See your eye-care professional regularly, but schedule an extra visit if you notice pain, focus problems, dark spots in your vision, redness, change in iris colour or discharge. Good eye health makes every day look a little better! Age-related macular degeneration is a condition of the eye where the part of the retina used for sharp visual focus breaks down. Left untreated, it can progress to blindness, but early detection is the key to successful treatment. Your eye-care professional can usually detect the signs before vision is affected, but if you notice blurred vision and/or difficulty reading or seeing other details in your centre of vision, see your doctor. If you are suffering from insomnia or poor quality sleep, turning to sleep medication is not always the best option. A number of behavioural changes tend to be more effective! Don't use your bed for working, watching television, etc. and only go to bed when sleepy.

Do you suffer from allergies? Come in and talk with a Licensed Pharmacist to see how we can help.

Practice relaxation techniques such as progressive relaxation and try sleep restriction – reduce the time you spend in bed to train yourself to have quality sleep. BOB SANGHA Thyroid disease can be a Pharmacist, BSc difficult condition to diagnose at the best of times – but more so in the elderly population. In particular, seniors with hyperthyroid (overactive) are more likely to experience depression and excessive weight loss. Hyperthyroid also stresses the heart, resulting in heart failure (shortness of breath, fatigue, weakness, swollen ankles) and atrial fibrillation. Ensure your doctor checks your thyroid if you experience any of these symptoms. Growing older can bring a special set of circumstances to your health situation – some more serious than others. Don't ignore the changes. Talk to our pharmacists for advice on managing or referral for follow-up.

What might at first seem like a relatively minor car crash can lead to a potentially significant future loss of income. if your ability to earn a living is impaired because you’ve been injured as a result of another’s negligence, you may be compensated for that loss. take the recent case of mr. s. He recovered $350,000 for his reduced earning capacity after suffering whiplash-type (soft tissue) neck and back injuries in a rear-end accident. mr. s was driving home from work in his half-ton pickup. While stopped at a traffic light, he was hit from behind by a Honda Civic going about 29 to 30 mph, damaging his vehicle to the tune of $1,200. mr. s worked as a heavy duty mechanic. Although his shoulder blades hurt shortly after the accident, he went to work the next day, a saturday. At work, he felt increased pain in his shoulders and neck and developed a strong headache. On sunday, he saw a physician at a walk-in clinic, who recommended that he take a week off work. He then saw his own family doctor, who prescribed physiotherapy, chiropractic treatments and massage therapy, and visited a kinesiologist for home exercise instruction. Over the next few years, he kept taking time off work. Ultimately, he decided he couldn’t work as a heavy duty mechanic anymore and retrained for a lighter career as a realtor. At trial, both his family doctor and a specialist said his condition was permanent. so long as he didn’t do any heavy labour, he had no major complaints. But if he did any heavy work, his symptoms would flare up. A large part of his total claim was for future lost income – the difference between what he probably would earn as a mechanic if he hadn’t been injured and what he would

likely now earn as a realtor. the BC supreme Court considered whether any of the following four principles (approved by the Court of Appeal) applied to his case: 1. the plaintiff is less able overall to earn income from all types of employment; 2. the plaintiff is less marketable or attractive as an employee to potential employers; 3. the plaintiff has lost the ability to take advantage of all job opportunities which might have been open to him if he hadn’t been injured; 4. the plaintiff is less valuable to himself as a person capable of earning income in a competitive labour market. the court concluded that mr. s’s ability to take advantage of job opportunities was now limited because of his permanent injury. taking into account various factors, the court awarded him $350,000 compensation for future lost income (rejecting the defence claim that one year of income was appropriate). “the plaintiff has been permanently disabled from his lifetime occupation as a heavy duty mechanic,” wrote Justice Brown. “He has been forced to retrain. there is some prospect that he will earn more than the median income of male realtors in British Columbia. there is also the prospect that he will earn less.” if you’ve been injured in a car crash, consult a lawyer experienced in personal injury claims. depending on the facts and evidence, your lawyer can help you recover the compensation you deserve.

With so many different aircraft in the air at one time — including various makes in categories of factory built, home built, classic, antique, and ex-military — the airport hopes to make the Guinness Book of World Records. That evening, guests can dance the night away to the big band sounds of the Bruce James Orchestra in a place usually reserved for planes. A hangar on the north side of the Langley Airport will be converted into a dance hall on Friday at 7 p.m. Guests should follow the signs when entering the airport at the traffic lights opposite Langley Secondary School on 56 Avenue. Tickets must be purchased in advance and are $20, which includes a hamburger or hot dog and a beverage. For tickets, contact the Canadian Museum of Flight at 604-532-0035 or CMflight@telus.net. The following day, June 22, an official ceremony will be held and a fly-in will see aviation enthusiasts arriving from around the province to celebrate the airport’s milestone anniversary. Originally built by the federal Department of Transport in 1938, the Langley Airport was controlled by the Department of National Defence and enhanced for the Royal Canadian Air Force for use as a relief field in the early 1940s. After the Second World War, the Department of Transport resumed ownership and leased the airport to the Township of Langley. In 1954, the facility was licenced to operate as a municipal airport and in 1967 it was purchased by the Township for $24,300. “That turned out to be an excellent investment,” said Township of Langley Mayor Jack Froese, noting that Langley Regional Airport is now home to close to 50 businesses, including the largest concentration of rotary wing companies in Canada. “People want to live and work in our community and we are proud of our thriving commercial climate.”

New spa makes clients feel naturally beautiful W

ith summer nearly here, there’s no better time to look and feel your absolute best from head-to-toe. At the Sila Spa, located at 19888 Langley Bypass, one will find a plethora of the latest spa treatments and products all under one roof – the majority of which are derived from natural plant-based products. Upon entering the zen-like atmosphere, one is put right at ease by the soft music, tasteful decor and warm welcome from owners Khan and Lynn. For the devoted couple from Vietnam, their little slice of tranquility right here in Langley is a dream come true. Despite only recently opening in April, business has been booming. “Lynn has faithful clients to come to see her from all over the Lower Mainland and as far as Victoria and Nanaimo,” said Khan. “She has a very positive, uplifting attitude and enjoys helping others to look and feel beautiful. We also keep our prices very reasonable – we want everyone to have the opportunity to feel and look their best!” Lynn, a certified esthetician/hair stylist and nail technician, has been working in the beauty industry for more than 30 years. At the young age of 12, she studied in her first salon and worked her way up to employment at various prestigious salons and spas throughout Vietnam. Prior to opening Sila Spa, Lynn was a stylist at Champers in Surrey – many of her previous clients continue to make the trek to Langley for her services. “My wife is extremely talented at what she

It’s Wheel Art – done the ‘Wright’ Way

plywood for his projects. He explains that he uses soft wood for two reasons. One, softwood is less expensive and two, it is far easier on the tools. To make his replicas Art employs a band saw, drill press, belt sanders and hole saws. Like many craftsmen in some cases he must make his own jigs. A jig is a custom made tool that acts as a template for some of the pieces. He uses them to make the wheels and some of the more intricate parts.

Lilianne Fuller

hey look like tons of fun to play with but make no mistake - these little rigs are not toys. They are models of the big ones and they are crafted entirely of wood. Working in a small 12 x 16 foot workshop local resident Art Wright produces replicas of trucks, cranes, front end loaders, tractor trailers, and cement trucks. He creates his own designs, then makes the patterns. You can tell that the models are a labour of love and living examples of patience in action. Every part of each model moves exactly as in real life and each model is built precisely to scale.

From a distance the crane and front end loader look so realistic that they resemble the toys found at Toys R Us. When you examine them closely you can see they are not made of metal but are all wood right down to the tread on the tires. The treads are made from Medium Density Fiberboard or MDF and have a very realistic look. “I use MDF on the tire tread because the work is so small that wood tends to split.” he explained. Once finished, Art paints them to look like exactly like the big rigs in real life.

A love of trucks and woodworking is in Art’s blood. His dad was a trucker and his grandfather was a craftsman who worked in wood. Art has always liked trucks and he enjoys the challenge of making these models come to life. Working in wood has always been a hobby and for many years he built miniature farm wagons. The idea of making trucks and heavy equipment came after a trip to Lynden, Washington and a visit to a store called Toys and Joys. The store sold patterns and plans for toy

trucks and miniature heavy equipment. He decided to try his hand using the store patterns but soon discovered it was far more fun to make his own creations. Art uses 3/4 inch pine boards and 1/4 inch birch

When he undertakes a project, the first step is to do some research for the ‘toy’ he plans to build. In some cases he uses the internet while others are inspired from old calendars and pictures. In the case of the garbage truck he got the idea from a rig he saw on the road. A local garbage company parks its trucks nearby so he visited and made some drawings. He studied all the details and committed them to memory and then set to work. Completing a project literally takes hundreds of hours. Some projects take days and the more elaborate ones can take weeks to complete. Wheels are particularly intricate and one wheel can take several hours. He had his hands full with one of his truck models which had 42 wheels. Some of the wheels on the antique trucks even have spokes! Because of the length of time it takes to make one continued on next page

“A Place to Call Home”

A NOT-FOR-PROFIT FACILITY

— Langley’s Monthly Young-At-Heart Section — June 2013 —

Getting to know Seniors The Times sat down with the Sergi’s to discuss their new roles as Seniors of the Year. This is what they had to say:

Q: Why do you love to volunteer in the community? Mario: “We do what we do because we like people. Not only that, now is the time to pay back to society after working for so many years. When you’re retired you don’t want to sit down and watch TV. You want to go out and do something, and to us it’s quite a gratification to help someone without pay. When they say ‘thank you’ that’s more than anything money can buy.”

Q: What was it like to be honoured by your community during the Seniors of the Year luncheon on June 5? Marilyn: “We were stunned, really stunned. You can’t help but be taken aback. You can imagine how the stars and big people in life must feel when all of the paparazzi come chasing after them. It was like that.”

Caring for Seniors is Our Business Do you need help with personal care or daily living activities? Do you like your independence? Getting excellent nursing care in a home-like setting may be the right choice for you.

Visit www.langleylodge.org for more information

Q: What’s the most important part about being involved in your community? Marilyn: “Just doing what we like. If you see something that needs doing, do it. That’s always been one of my mottos. We are passionate about the things we do, and because we are retirees, we choose what we want to be involved in — it’s fun.”

Q: What kind of impact would you like to make in your new role as Senior of the Year?

Marilyn: “I would say, if you know someone is a senior in your area, and you don’t know them, speak to them. Ask them if there is anything you can do for them. Maybe it’s something as simple as cutting their grass. Or maybe they’ve got some cupboards that are not closing, and could use somebody a little taller than they are who has a tool that they don’t have to tighten the screw. It’s the little things that mean a lot, it really does. The government and the senior’s centre and all of the different societies can look after the bigger issues, but helping a person in their day to day living is a really big effort that should be put forward by more people. Let’s just help the people that need help. Be friendly, be kindly.” Mario: “The main thing is that we try to do the best we can for our neighbours, no matter who they are. We like to do things

3Dear Brookswood, How could I ever forget. Every time I see my lovely smile, I am reminded of your great work! In fact, we were on a cruise this past spring, and one dear gentleman told me I had ‘the nicest smile on the boat.” I couldn't help but agree. You do great smiles! With thanks, Francis B. 3I would like to take this moment to say thank you so much for the new look you have given me. I feel so much better about myself and to think I do look ten years younger! I am so glad I found your ad and came to you for help. I am still in awe with what all took place. Never have I had that kind of attention to detail in dentures. Thank you again, take care, Bonnie 3I just wanted to send you a note of thanks for all your thoughtfulness and caring in the past ten months. It was just awful to lose all of my teeth, but because of all of you, you have made it a lot easier to deal with everything. I love my new teeth. Darren, you did a great job. Thanks again to a great group of caring people. Wendy M. 3Thank you so very, very much for going above and beyond ... and for listening. I truly appreciate it! Fondly, Leslie

Are Your Ears Ringing?

D in there?

o you have music in your ears? How about church bells ringing? Bee’s buzzing around

If your answer is “Yes” then you may have Tinnitus! Tinnitus (pronounced tih-NITE-us) is a ringing, buzzing, roaring, ticking, hissing, clicking or any other variety of sound heard by the individual, but not cause by an outside source. Tinnitus can occur after taking certain over the counter medications, being at a loud concert or sitting through an exciting hockey game (Sorry Canuck fans!! According to the American Tinnitus Association there are over 50 million people that suffer from tinnitus. How loud can tinnitus be? Well that depends on several factors including stress, diet and noise exposure. Tinnitus, like chronic pain, is subjective. Similar characteristics may be reported yet individuals who suffer from tinnitus may be affected in a completely different manner. Many people who suffer from tinnitus report having difficulty sleeping, concentrating, hearing and many report various degrees of depression. So what causes tinnitus? The American Tinnitus Association reports that the exact physiological cause or causes of tinnitus are not known. Well that’s not

really helpful is it!! Although anyone can get tinnitus we do know is that there are several sources that are known to trigger and possibly worsen tinnitus. This includes noise exposure (occupational and/or recreational), maturing adults (over the age of 65), head and neck trauma, wax build up, jaw misalignment, certain medications, various medical conditions/disorders and age-related hearing loss.

What do you do now? Harvard Health Publications writes “When chronic tinnitus is cause by a definable problem, like ear wax or grinding your teeth, addressing that problem will often turn down the volume of your tinnitus. Otherwise several strategies can help make the tinnitus less bothersome. One of the simplest approaches in tinnitus treatment is masking the noise.” Try listening to soothing music, a fan or a sound generator going in the background. Since tinnitus can be associated with a number of auditory conditions the hearing assessment can provide you with extensive information.

This honour we have is terrific and the presents we have been given are really great, but I feel that it’s a little bit too much. I don’t think I deserve that, because I like to do this with my heart, I don’t need compensation.” Q: How can other seniors become involved in the community? Marilyn: “Decide what you’re interested in. If you’re interested in helping out at Christmas only, then contact the Christmas Bureau. If you would like to learn

how a blood service runs, contact the Canadian Blood Services, they are always looking for volunteers. Langley has so many programs and they all need volunteers. “If you just step outside your daily box and try one thing. Volunteer with whatever you’re interested in. If you like birds, go out and look at the birds at Campbell Valley Park or Derby Reach. Contact the adopt-a-street program and pick up garbage outside your area, just some simple things that you can do. People don’t realize how much is being done for the City, the Township and the Fort Langley area by volunteers. Volunteers make the difference.”

Musical Sensation Langley’s Bernie Grinstead has released a CD of his late wife’s music – Sensational Bette Graham – 15 years after her death BRENDA ANDERSON Times Reporter

he two thick albums of photos and press clippings are precious to Bernie Grinstead. Inside a pair of ring binders, the Langley senior has compiled dozens of old newspaper articles and reviews, interspersed with advertisements and playbills. Together, they paint a vivid picture of Grinstead’s late wife, Bette Graham, and a four-decade career spent singing in Canadian clubs from Montreal to Vancouver. As the years pass, black and white images give way to colour — with that quintessential pink 1970s-era tinge. A few from the ’80s and early ’90s occupy the back pages. The words and accompanying images document not only a long and successful singing career, but the nearly 50 years of marriage that passed between 1952 and February, 1998, when Graham passed away from cancer at 64. They’re memories to last Bernie Grinstead a lifetime. Now, 15 years after his wife’s death, the Langley senior is giving her a voice once again, with the release of a CD titled Sensational Bette Graham. With record players and cassette recorders long having given way to CDs and digital music players, and at the urging of friends, Grinstead, 82, decided it was time to re-release some of his late wife’s music in a more modern format. The CD is made up mostly of original songs, penned by Graham. But it also includes a few covers — The Beatles’ Fool on the Hill, Hoagy Carmichael’s Georgia on My Mind,

Brenda ANDERSON/Langley Times

Langley’s Bernie Grinstead shows off a bit of memorabilia from the days his late wife, Bette Graham — whose photo he holds — had a successful singing career in night clubs and hotels across Canada. Fifteen years after Graham’s death, Grinstead has released 15 of her songs on a CD and sent five to radio stations all over the country. Willow Weep for Me, written by Ann Ronnell and Danny Small’s Without Love. Graham’s original songs, meanwhile, compose something of a love letter to Canada, with musical tributes to Montreal, the Yukon, Alberta and Saskatchewan, Winnipeg, the Grand Banks and the Okanagan. Recorded years ago, the telltale crackle of vinyl is evident on many of the tracks. Rather than just offer the CD to friends and relatives, though, Grinstead decided to try to drum up wider interest, sending five of Graham’s songs to radio stations across Canada. “I thought, if I’m making them for friends, why not make extra for commercial use?” he said. “I selected certain (songs) — mainly where she’d written the music and the lyrics.” Seventy packages went out to radio stations across the country and the first response came from Canada’s public broadcaster.

booking her into hotels, night clubs and even appearances on local television shows. In Montreal, Winnipeg and Regina (while Grinstead was stationed at nearby Moose Jaw), she built her reputation as a Canadian songstress, performing at hotels and in nightclubs with names like Chan’s Moon Room, Club Copacabana, Rancho Don Carlos and Club Morocco. During the the couple’s time in Quebec, Graham performed at Expo ’67. During that period, it wasn’t uncommon to find Premier René Lévesque in the audience, taking in her lounge act. She even performed for Pierre Trudeau once, Grinstead said. “She did all the big shows in all the big theatres.” In a lot of ways, he said, it was like playing Las Vegas, with show rooms that held 1,300 or 1,400 people. Her act included blues, jazz and a touch of country, Grinstead explained. continued, PAGE 26

“It was Vancouver CBC that picked it up and put it on the Web,” said Grinstead. “Toronto put it on rotation on the radio.” Combined, the five songs on the CBC website had topped 180 plays by last week. And now, Grinstead is hearing from of those private stations he included in the mail out. As to who’s listening, it’s anyone’s guess of course. But, likely, the music is providing trips down memory lane for many Canadians who heard Graham perform live in venues across the country all those years ago. The couple met in 1951 in Hamilton, Ont. and married the following year. As Bernie’s career with the Royal Canadian Air Force took him to four provinces and across the Atlantic to France, Graham found places to perform each time the couple settled in a new home. A magician himself, Grinstead became his wife’s manager and producer,

Recently, the artists of Fort Langley’s Fort Gallery decided to put aside the colours that they are so familiar with, and work solely with Black and White for one show. The resulting artwork is both dramatic and elegant, and on display now at the gallery. Although most of the artists are painters, the Black and White theme extends beyond paintings. Visitors walking in to the gallery will also find wonderful examples of fused glass, pen and ink drawings, and printmaking.

Plan to camp out this summer W

hen the weather warms up in the summer, many of us desert our offices, our schools, and even our comfortable homes. We abandon the world of four solid walls. For what? A flimsy tent that may leak if it rains? Why? For one thing, camping is an opportunity “to get closer to nature.” The walls that insulate us from the vagaries of the weather also hide the majesty of the outdoors — the forests, fields and streams, the landscapes, and the views from ocean shore or mountaintop — and the wildlife, the creepy crawlies and flying things. Getting close

enough to nature to encounter creepy crawlies is not on every adult’s A-list. Kids, on the other hand, are primed for such encounters. I’ll never forget one night camping in Manning Park when my kids and I watched transfixed as hordes of bats manically circled in the evening air in hot pursuit of mosquitos. I also remember what got us there. One afternoon we stopped off in Manning Park briefly, but long enough to realize that this beautiful outdoor environment was a perfect match for the energy of our four boys.

Is there a doctor in the house? Langley museum seeking photos of Dr. Albert McBurney Staff at the Langley Centennial Museum are hoping that the community can help them locate photographs of the late Dr. Albert McBurney in time for their upcoming exhibit, “From Bedpans to Bandages: The History of Medicine in Langley.” The exhibit is scheduled to run from July 16 until Sept. 8. “Sometimes research for upcoming exhibits allows us to see where we have some holes in our collection, and allows us to involve the community in our hunt,” said museum curator Kobi Christian. “This photo (shown) seems to be the only one around, but there might be more out there.” Dr. McBurney was Langley’s second doctor. Born in Quebec in 1884, he earned his medical degree at McGill and moved west in 1911. He and his wife, Olive, arrived in Fort Langley in 1914. Dr. McBurney took over Dr. Marr’s practice while Marr

Prairie in 1919 and practiced there. McBurney had a reputation as a kind and caring doctor in a growing community where times were often tough. He was known for taking care of those who were unable to pay, and for making house calls to help the sick and injured in need at all times and in all weather before Langley Memorial Hospital was built. Dr. McBurney was involved in the Masonic Lodge, the Aldergrove Elks Lodge, the Royal Canadian Legion, and Langley Prairie’s May Day event. It’s because of his hard work and dedication to the community that the museum is convinced there are more photos of him out there.

Graham’s stage presence easily held audiences from PAGE 23

Graham also did revues of favourites from the Gay ’90s and Roaring ’20s. “These were clubs with a real Vegas atmosphere. There were guys at the door in tuxes. You could tip ‘em a little extra and get a table down front,” he chuckled. When Grinstead left the air force in the early 1970s, the couple and their two daughters moved to Langley. Graham carried on working, singing in

Vancouver hotels and at the famous Cave Supper Club as well as performing in both Langley and Surrey. An attractive woman with a strong and yet sultry voice, it was nevertheless Graham’s ability to command an audience’s attention that set her apart in an era of female lounge singers, said Grinstead. “It was her stage, presence — her delivery. “She was very unique, she could hold an audience for an hour without any difficulty.” To hear Graham sing, go to music.cbc.ca/#/ artists/Bette-Graham

Lee McCook is ready to lift at next month’s Special Olympics BC Summer Games which will be held in Langley from July 11 to 14.

Gary AHUJA/Langley Times

Special Olympics gives competitor a lift

GARY AHUJA Times Reporter

While people always talk about how sports saved someone’s life, that really is the case with Lee McCook. Five years ago, McCook was stricken by bilateral pneumonia. McCook was in the hospital on a ventilator and in a coma and things looked grave. “We thought we had lost him a couple of times,” admitted his mom, Anne. The doctors told his parents Anne and Dave that, had their son not been in good physical shape, there was a very strong possibility he may not have made it. “The doctor said if he hadn’t been as fit as he was, he probably would not have pulled through,” Anne recalled. The fitness level comes from McCook’s long involvement with the B.C. Special Olympics program. “It has always helped him with his fitness,” Anne explained. “People with Down syndrome tend to put weight on and they have poor muscle tone, so that helped him a lot.”

McCook, who turns 38 on July 1, has been involved with the Special Olympics program for the past 30 years. In fact, he took part in the very first Special Olympics BC Games, which were held at UBC in 1984. At that event, an eight-year-old McCook ran side-by-side with former NHL hockey player Dave ‘Tiger’ Williams, who was a member of the Vancouver Canucks at that point in his career. The Games are for McCook — and the thousands of other Special Olympics competitors just like him — a chance to be competitive, build friendships and experience some camaraderie with their fellow athletes. “We turned to Special Olympics because you are included and there is no judgement,” Anne said. McCook, who has quite the competitive streak, keeps active with a variety of sports, such as soccer, swimming, bowling, hockey, and power lifting. McCook, an avid wrestling fan — Jon Cena is his favourite — has long wanted to participate in the sport. “He has wanted to power lift since we

moved to Langley 15 years ago, but they never had a coach for the longest while,” Anne explained. That changed two years when the sport was offered in Langley two years ago. So just how excited was McCook, on a scale of one to 10, when he finally got the chance to do the sport? He answered a resounding “15.” McCook competes in the bench press and dead lift events and that will be the sport he competes in next month as the 2013 Special Olympics BC Summer Games are held in Langley (July 11 to 14). “I am looking forward to winning gold medals,” said McCook. Win or lose, his parents love the effect Special Olympics has had on their son. While children may play organized sports in their younger years, those with developmental disabilities or special needs find it harder to play as they get older. Special Olympics fills that void. “It is an outlet where (the athletes) are not judged,” Anne said. “And it is a good outlet for all the athletes; it is somewhere where they can excel at their level.

“They don’t have to be superstars.” And while in year’s past, Special Olympics used to be more about just the participation, that is changing as the athletes become more and more competitive. “They are getting feedback and direction and camaraderie,” added Dave. “It also gives them self-confidence and teaches them to share and all of the kinds of values we want to instill in our kids.” “It is also a lot of good self-esteem,” Anne said. “If they are doing something well, and are told by their coach, it makes them feel great.” The McCooks have gradually scaled back their involvement as long-time volunteers and instead shifted their focus and efforts into helping their son adjust to semiindependent living. Lee lives in a townhouse, with a roommate, just across the park from his parents in Murrayville. He also works at the local IGA three days a week. “We want to see him managing when we are not around anymore,” said Anne.

Thunder golden once again Another tournament, another title for the Langley B2 Thunder lacrosse team. For the second time in as many weekends, the local bantam lacrosse team was golden. But while last time they had to travel to the Okanagan to collect their gold, this time, the Thunder did so in the friendly confines of within Langley at the Dennis Hickey Memorial Lacrosse Tournament. The tournament was held at the Langley Events Centre, the George Preston Recreation and the Aldergrove Arena. Langley defeated Port Coquitlam 10-3 in the gold medal game on Sunday, with Aydan Johnson and Tyler Starinieri both registering hat tricks in the final. Starinieri earned game MVP honours.

One week after scoring six goals and setting up another in an 11-4 victory, Pearson was at it again on Sunday night, this time playing set-up man. Pearson scored once and assisted on seven goals for the eightpoint night as the Langley Junior Thunder defeated the Burnaby Junior Lakers 13-9 at the Bill Copeland Arena. The Thunder scored six times in both the first and second periods to build the comfortable lead as they improved to 8-5 in the B.C. Junior A Lacrosse League. Langley led 6-1 after one period and 12-5 after 40 minutes. Reegan Comeault scored three times and set up another pair, while Adam Will had three goals and one assist. Brandon Bull also notched a hat trick and Brett Dobray had two goals and two assists. Dylan Quinn had the other Langley goal and Brendan MykleWinkler set up four goals. Newly-acquired goaltender Tyler Glebe stopped 28 shots in his Langley debut. The Thunder have a busy week ahead as they face four games in five days, including a home game on Thursday (June 20) at the Langley Events Centre. Game starts at 8 p.m.

••••• The Langley Thunder offence seems to be back on track as they hit double digits in goals in posting back-to-back victories last week. The senior A lacrosse team built on a 14-5 home victory at the Langley Events Centre on June 12 with a 12-10 road win on Saturday night over the Coquitlam Adanacs. The Thunder sit second in the Western Lacrosse Association at 5-2. The win was not without its challenges, however, as Langley blew a 4-1 first period lead, rallying from a 7-6 deficit after 40 minutes. The Thunder opened the third period with six consecutive goals in a 10:23 span. Coquitlam did score three straight to close the game, but lost by two goals. The Langley offence was led by Shayne Jackson and Alex Turner, who both had two goals and one assist and Tor Reinholdt, who had one goal and two helpers. Kyle McEwen chipped in with a pair while Brett Mydske, Jarrett Toll, Alex Crepinsek, Brandon Goodwin and Kerry Susheski each potted a goal. Brodie MacDonald stopped 35 shots. Against Nanaimo, Athan Iannucci and Jackson paced the attack with two goals and five points apiece. Langley hosts New Westminster tomorrow (Wednesday) at the LEC at 7:45 p.m.

Heinen joins Eagles Danton Heinen is going from one championship team to another. Heinen has signed to join the BCHL’s Surrey Eagles for the 2013/14 junior A hockey season. The Eagles won the Fred Page Cup, as league champions, as well as the Western Canadian Cup. They lost in the RBC Cup national championship semifinals. This past season, the Langley Christian student was a key part of the junior B Richmond Sockeyes’ run to the Keystone Cup. The Langley Minor Hockey product finished 11th in the Pacific Junior Ice Hockey League scoring race, posting 21 goals and

28 assists in 43 games. He added another 29 points in 25 post-season games as the Sockeyes won the league championship, the Cyclone Taylor Cup (provincial championship) and the Keystone Cup (Western Canadian junior B championship). Heinen, who turns 18 on July 5, played two BCHL games with Merritt last season as well. “I’ve heard a lot of good things about the Eagles,” he said. “They seem like a great organization and I think playing in Surrey will be a great fit for me. “They know how to win, and I’m really excited for training camp.”

Two years ago, David Nicmans gave up basketball in favour of rowing. And that decision has paid off with a spot on the Canadian national junior rowing team this summer. The 18-year-old was in Welland, Ont. earlier this month for Rowing Canada Aviron selection camp and after a grueling three days, Nicmans made the final cut. He will leave for Ontario at the end of the month — once his high school exams are completed — and spend all of July training in Peterborough. The team will then leave for Trakai, Lithuania on July 29 with the competition set to run Aug. 7 to 11. Nicmans is part of the Burnaby Rowing Club. And another local rower, Alexander Gulka of the Fort Langley Youth Rowing, has been selected to represent Rowing Canada Aviron at the 2013 Can Am Mex event. Gulka will compete as part of the men’s sculling team at the event, which runs July 8 to 13 in Oklahoma City.

a pair of hits — he now leads the league with a .419 average — as well as two RBIs. Liam Stroud threw a complete game three-hitter, with just one of the three runs he surrendered an earned run. He improved to 6-1 with a 1.65 ERA. Langley plays at the Whalley Chiefs on June 18 and then visits the North Delta Blue Jays on June 19. The Blaze host the Victoria Eagles on June 22 at McLeod Park in a doubleheader. Game times are noon and 2:30 p.m. They also face the Victoria Mariners at McLeod on June 23 at 1 p.m. and 3:30 p.m.

North Shore had tied the game with a pair of runs in the bottom of the seventh and after neither team scored in the eight, the Blaze potted five runs in the top half of the ninth. Lawrence got things going with a two-out double which scored Sasaki and Langley went on to score four more runs. Cratty and Luke Horanski each drove in a pair of runs. On the mound, Kyle Ross went the distance as he improved to 8-1 while lowering his earned run average to 1.46. The second game also went in Langley’s favour, this time 6-3. Mike Dagg led the offence with

Mitchell Robinson hit a pair of doubles and drove in one run. Jordan Atkinson threw a complete game two-hitter, allowing just the one unearned run. He also struck out nine and walked none. Game two also went in favour of Langley, this time 10-4. Griffin Andreychuk drove in three runs while Shoma Sasaki, Justin Lawrence and Verge had two RBIs apiece. Kristjan Storrie picked up the win, allowing a pair of runs over six innings, while striking out five. Langley needed extra innings to take game one of their doubleheader with the Twins.

With the wins, Langley improved to 34-6 and stretched their lead to seven and a half games over the Twins and the Victoria Mariners for top spot in the U18 baseball league. In the 10-1 victory, Mason Cratty and Mason Verge both drove in a pair of runs while
