Police watchdog looking into Langley crash

DAN FERGUSON Times Reporter

Four people were injured in a Sunday morning crash involving an unmarked RCMP cruiser in Langley.

The police watchdog agency, the Independent Investigations Office (IIO) is investigating.

According to the RCMP, at 2:01 a.m. on June 23, officers in Langley were responding to a complaint and were trav-

elling southbound on 200 Street.

The unmarked police vehicle, a Ford, collided with a Toyota that reportedly pulled out of Brydon Crescent.

The driver of the civilian vehicle suffered serious injuries and was transported to hospital.

Two passengers as well as an RCMP officer were also taken to hospital with injuries.

The IIO was notified at 2:53 a.m.; four IIO investigators were called in.

Traffic blocked for follow-up investigation VIKKI HOPES Black Press

Kinder Morgan graphic

The proposal to twin the existing Kinder Morgan Trans Mountain oil pipeline (solid line) calls for the new line to veer from the current route, just west of where the line now crosses the Salmon River, and then go north to the CN rail right-of way. It would then follow that right-of-way west to the Surrey boundary. This routing would avoid the built-up Walnut Grove area, where the existing pipeline is located.

Pipeline would avoid Walnut Grove

JEFF NAGEL Black Press

Kinder Morgan has opted to bypass developed neighbourhoods in Walnut Grove where its existing oil pipeline runs in favour of a new route for its proposed twinned pipeline — along the CN rail right-of-way.

While the route choice allows Trans Mountain pipeline planners to dodge possible conflict with thousands of homeowners who live near the current line, it’s likely to mean sharper focus on the environmental risk of a rupture that could send heavy crude oil into the Fraser and Salmon Rivers.

The map of the study corridor through Langley, Surrey, Abbotsford and Chilliwack was unveiled Friday.

The completed $5.4 billion pipeline twinning, if approved, would carry 890,000 barrels of oil per day — triple the current capacity — with most of the increase consisting of diluted bitumen for export via tankers through Burrard Inlet.

While the new pipeline to Burnaby’s

Westridge Terminal would closely follow its 60-year-old predecessor through most of the Fraser Valley, it breaks with the past at about 224 Street in Langley, just after it crosses the Salmon River. It then cuts north, to the west of Fort Langley and beside the meandering Salmon River, to reach the CN rail line.

The existing pipeline crosses into Langley from Abbotsford at about the 7000 block, then heads gradually northwest along the ridge above Glen Valley.

It crosses the Salmon River just south of Belmont Golf Course and then goes to the north of Telegraph Trail into Walnut Grove.

The new pipeline would head almost straight north from a location just west of the golf course.

The detour would allow construction crews to avoid the Walnut Grove neighbourhood, which has sprung up since the original pipeline was built.

From there, the new route runs west along the rail line and the South Fraser Perimeter Road through Surrey to a new tunneled crossing of the Fraser River downstream of the Port Mann Bridge.

Along the way it would tread along the edge of newly-created Surrey Bend Regional Park and past industrial properties in Port Kells. But few homeowners would be affected.

“A lot has changed in the last 60 years,” said Greg Toth, senior project director for the Trans Mountain expansion project. “Following the existing pipeline is not practical.”

So much has changed that even the old Port Mann Bridge and the section of Highway 1 approaching it in Surrey did not exist when when the original line was built from northern Alberta in 1952 and 1953.

Toth won’t say what route is proposed north of the Fraser. That’s to be revealed on Thursday.

But the Surrey and Langley maps suggest it won’t go through residential yards in Coquitlam, either.

It is likely the preferred new route would run from Cape Horn west along the CP rail line, with two alternate routes toward Burnaby identified as the Highway 1 and Lougheed Highway corridors.

— with files from Frank Bucholtz

Traffic along a portion of 56 Avenue in Abbotsford, just east of Gloucester industrial Park, was blocked off for most of Thursday while officers from the Integrated Homicide Investigation (IHIT) team were at an Abbotsford home that was the site of a murder in January 2012.

IHIT spokesperson Sgt. Jennifer Pound said officers were at the residence as an “investigative follow-up” into the homicide of Ryan Saint Ange on Jan. 14, 2012. She said she could not provide any details.

Saint Ange, 21, was found dead by a friend who had stopped to visit him at his home in the 27700 block of 56 Avenue, near Gloucester.

Although others lived in the home, no one else was there when the friend arrived just after midnight.

Two men were charged the following month with second-degree murder in connection to Saint Ange’s death.

Robert Adam Van Dusen, 27, of Aldergrove and Shayne Steven Vauthrin, 27, of Abbotsford are currently at the preliminary inquiry stage of their court proceedings.

Police have never released Saint Ange’s cause of death nor the circumstances leading up to it.

Traffic was doubly congested in the area Thursday, as 264 Street was also closed north of 56 Avenue, due to a tree that fell across the road and the power lines.

The fallen tree also caused a power outage in the area.

Guns turned in

So far, 13 guns have been turned in to the Langley RCMP through the B.C. Gun Amnesty.

Around 600 firearms and hundreds of rounds of ammunition have already been turned in to RCMP detachments across the province so far. People can call the detachment and have an officer pick up unregistered firearms and ammo until June 30. All the guns and ammo are destroyed. Do not bring guns into any detachment. Call the Langley detachment non-emergency number at 604-532-3200 if you have unwanted guns or ammunition.

Relay for Life raises $290,000 MONIQUE TAMMINGA Times Reporter

Record numbers turned out for the fight against cancer at the ninth annual Langley Relay for Life at McLeod Athletic Park on Friday night.

In total, 94 teams registered, more than 900 stayed overnight, and more than $290,000 was raised for the Canadian Cancer Society. “Everybody has their reason to Relay,� said Howie Vickberg, chair of the Relay organizing committee.

Since joining the committee nine years ago, Vickberg said he went from having known one cousin many years ago die of Hodgkin’s disease to seeing many friends be diagnosed with cancer.

Some have lost their lives, he said. But there are victories, too. “We have a committee member who has survived pancreatic cancer,� he said.

The highlight of this year was the amount of students involved in the relay. “Our relay is unique in that we have so much student involvement,� he said.

For example, 10 teams registered from Brookswood Secondary. There were three teams registered from Glenwood Elementary, and they were the top fundraising school.

That is mainly because students were inspired by fellow classmate — Grade 5 student Malcolm Shields, who was this year’s top fundraiser for Relay for Life.

The 10-year-old raised $35,000 in honour of his six-year-old brother Jack,

Miranda GATHERCOLE/Langley Times

The Hot for the Cure Relay for Life Team doubled their fundraising this year to $8,000 from $4,000 last year. They describe themselves as “a group of friends who all hate cancer.� who is battling leukemia. “It’s astounding this 10-year-old boy could raise that kind of money. I met him at the Relay and he is so poised,�

Vickberg said. “Jack is going through treatment but the positive in this cancer fight is the prognosis is good.�

Langley School District staff and school trustees also formed a team this year, in honour of Sandy Wakel-

ing, communications manager, who has had to take a leave of absence to battle cancer.

The Relay went from 7 p.m. on Friday to 7 a.m. Saturday, with the goal to have someone from each team walking the track the entire time.

Meanwhile, live music from Other Side of 5 and One Bullett Down played and for the first time they screened an outdoor movie, Back to the Future.

Giving cancer the boot Josh Collins aims to raise money to help families of those affected by cancer GARY AHUJA Times Sports

Josh Collins is back and ready to take a couple of kicks at cancer.

More specifically, 4,000 kicks at the deadly disease.

On Saturday (June 22), at the Jack Poole Plaza in Vancouver, the 32-year-old Langley man began his Kicking Cancer campaign where he made 250 good kicks in just under two hours.

The initiative will see Collins — a former football kicker and soccer player — attempt to kick 4,000 field goals at eight events between now and the fall.

It works out to about 500 field goals per event.

His next event is this Saturday in Edmonton, to coincide with the CFL game between the Edmonton Eskimos and the Saskatchewan Roughriders.

Collins will be kicking his field goals outside of Commonwealth Stadium

Memorial for Craig Davies to be held on July 4

A date has been set for a celebration of the life of longtime Langley City businessman Craig Davies.

The event takes place at 11 a.m. on Thursday, July 4, at the Cascades Casino and Convention Centre in Langley City.

Davies was a member of the Langley City business community for 40 years, and was the chair of the Downtown Langley Business Association for several years. He was the owner of Design One, a graphic design studio in Langley for 35 years. He was named business person of the year in 2011 by the Greater Langley Chamber of Commerce.

He died on Monday, June 17 after a brief battle with colon cancer. He was 63.

He was born in New Westminster. As an “Air Force brat,” he lived with his family in Bagotville, Quebec; Zweibrucken, Germany; and Gimli and Winnipeg, Manitoba. He graduated from Gimli High School and continued on to receive a diploma from Red River College in Winnipeg, Manitoba.

As an adult he moved to Langley, where he raised his family and lived for many years before moving on to Lindell Beach and then Garrison Crossing in Chilliwack.

He coached hockey for his two sons

and many, many other young hockey players in Langley.

He met his wife Kathy Davies (O’Brien) and they began their life together in 2000.

They married on Nov. 18, 2008 in Hawaii.

They enjoyed renovating and decorating their homes, creating beautiful gardens, entertaining friends and travelling.

He had an amazing talent for photography, particularly black and white, and recently enjoyed sharing his photographic adventures on his blog, www. thethingsisee.ca He had many interests and was a collector of rare and first edition books, Cana-

dian stamps, local artwork and antique bottles, to name just a few.

He was predeceased by his stepson Corey, and is survived by his two sons from his first marriage to Bev Davies (Maly): Garth Davies and his wife Deborah, and Grant Davies and his wife TerriLee. He is also survived by his sister Bonnie Davies and her husband William; his aunt Bonnie Howe and her husband Don; and his four grandchildren Adam, Royce, Leila and Keeley.

In lieu of flowers, the family is requesting that donations be made to the Canadian Cancer Society.

Man pleads guilty to over 30 charges One of two career criminals involved in a police standoff at the Super 8 Motel on Glover Road in March 2012 has pleaded guilty to more than 30 charges against him.

Surrey resident Dave Yaroslawsky was in B.C. Supreme Court in New Westminster on Tuesday, June 18, where he pleaded guilty to more than half of the charges against him. He was facing around 60 charges for the high profile arrest but Crown agreed to stay many of the charges. He is scheduled to be sentenced on July 31.

Ivan Logan Johnson, 33, of New Westminster, is facing more than 50 charges, for everything from possessing a weapon obtained through an offence and possession of stolen property and credit cards to dealing with identity theft in relation to the Super 8 Motel arrest. His next court appearance is June 21.

He was arrested along with Yaroslawsky, 29, by the Emergency Response Team and police dogs who surrounded the motel room after the two men refused to come out. Witnesses had called 911 after seeing the two men, allegedly with guns, unloading items into a motel room.

Those two men are believed to be involved in up to 18 home robberies in the Fraser Valley, many of those in Langley, said Langley RCMP spokesperson Cpl. Holly Marks at the time.

The men were in possession of so many stolen items that police had to create a slideshow on their website to allow the public to look through the items and determine what might belong to them.

Victims of break-ins were invited to come to the detachment and view the property.

Police recovered everything from stolen jewelry, including lockets and rings, to coins and electronics.

Johnson is a career criminal with pages upon pages of crimes committed in Langley, Surrey and New Westminster, among other places. Among some of the crimes he has committed in the past 10 years include theft and dangerous operation of a vehicle.

It hardly seems a fair exchange, but it appears a thief left his bike behind before making off with a Bobcat utility vehicle on Saturday.

Langley RCMP believe the black and white Bobcat was taken around 5:30 a.m. from a property in the 500 block of 256 Street. A green Miele bike was left in the driveStolen Bobcat way and may have been the thief’s transportation, said police.

The Bobcat is white and somewhat unique, in that the cab has a full glass enclosure. If you have information, call police at 604-5323200.

Several protests outside the Langley School District board office last week have focused on the lack of contract negotiations between the district and local 1851 of the Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE).

The union local represents janitors, trades people and other maintenance workers for the district.

The workers were outside the board

office on their lunch break Monday, June 17. About 30 people held signs and marched outside the building. Several motorists honked to encourage them.

Richard Frost, local 1851 president, said a similar protest took place Tuesday at noon and before the final board of education meeting of the school year on Tuesday night ( June 18).

He told The Times that employees took a strike vote seven weeks ago, and have been without a con-

tract since last year.

Negotiations are “at an impasse,” he said.

CUPE locals across B.C. have been upset that there have been virtually no movement on resolving contracts for school support staff.

While local districts play a part in negotiations, the contracts also involve the B.C. Public School Employers Association, making the process more complex.

Les Morrison, Jim Quick and Rodney Gill were among Langley School District maintenance employees protesting outside the board office June 17. They were protesting the stall in contract negotiations between the district and Canadian Union of Public Employees local 1851.

NDP at a crossroads

Parents need to say ‘no’ to huge parties

T

he provincial NDP is at a crossroads, and whichever direction it chooses is fraught with challenges.

Not only did the party lose an election that almost everyone expected it would win, it lost a number of key ridings, particularly in the Interior and Lower Mainland suburbs.

It also lost in Oak Bay-Gordon Head, where Green Party candidate Andrew Weaver was elected.

Weaver is a well-known scientist who is articulate and knowledgeable.

He will almost certainly help build on the Green Party beachhead which began when national leader Elizabeth May won a Vancouver Island seat in the 2011 federal election.

The NDP has much to fear from the Greens, who appeal to many younger and environmentally-minded people. The NDP, by contrast, often has difficulty moving beyond its massive debt to organized labour, which has very conflicting views on the environmental movement. The past election showed that many union members, particularly those whose jobs are related to resource extraction, voted Liberal.

The NDP could shift to a more environmentally-based party and leave these voters behind permanently. But if the party did so, they would be playing catch-up with the Greens.

Or the NDP could move in the direction of being much more robust in supporting economic development.

While this would appeal to a large core of voters, the party would likely be saying goodbye to many of its environmentally-minded voters.

The provincial NDP risk being caught in the squeeze that the federal Liberals were in after the 2011 election.

The Liberals were outmuscled by the Conservatives on the jobs and economy front, and by the federal NDP on the labour, environment and social issues front. It was the party’s worst showing ever.

The B.C. NDP must decide if Adrian Dix will remain as leader. Dix did not give much indication that he is going to resign, at the weekend provincial council meeting.

If he stays on as leader, there is almost certain to be a vicious internal fight within the NDP, which will likely lead to a very divided party. That would leave it in even worse shape to deal with the changes that are in the wind on the provincial political scene.

Premier Christy Clark and the BC Liberals are watching the NDP angst with undisguised enthusiasm.

ack in the olden days, as they say, a voice would take control of television sets at precisely 10 p.m. and ask viewers: “Do you know where your children are?”

That question is more relevant than ever following news of a disturbing crime that occurred at a weekend bush party.

According to Kamloops Mounties, more than 1,000 youths converged at a popular party spot in Barnhartvale, where a 17-year-old girl was sexually assaulted.

It’s a horrific crime and the person who committed it should face the harshest sentence available in our justice system.

The fact a teenager’s life has been irrevocably altered should serve as a reminder to all — parents in particular — that predators know where and when to act.

A bush party in the middle of nowhere, featuring a thousand kids and booze and drugs?

We cannot think of a more dangerous place for young people to be.

Last year, a similar massive outdoor party in the Barnhartvale area resulted in a vehicle hitting a girl, sending her to hospital with a broken pelvis. Another girl had a liquor bottle smashed over her head.

And, believe it or not, parents were actually driving their kids to these parties.

Nothing good can come of a thousand kids in the woods with booze and drugs.

Nothing.

This tragic crime on the weekend, and last year’s mayhem, should be more than enough to have every Kamloops parent tighten that leash on their teens, regardless of whether “everybody else is doing it.”

Langley Times

Editor: I have concerns about Douglas Park, the beautiful little park in Langley City.

I know people who come from Cloverdale to enjoy this particular park because of the lovely gardens, trees and walkways. Unfortunately, the park is changing.

This park is being taken over by young people who just want to ruin it. They start arriving midday to begin drinking and smoking pot. It’s not just on Friday and Saturday nights — it’s most nights of the week.

They carry their liquor bottles out in then open, like trophies, not caring who notices because they know they can get away with it.

They also carry large Coke bottles which they have already mixed with liquor, thinking no one will bother them.

I have personally seen them pour liquor into a pop bottle to try to hide the liquor — but most just proudly display their liquor bottles.

I use the park numerous times a day with my dogs. I am fed up with the lack of police presence or some other deterrent to these young people. There are often one or two older men with these teens. They probably went to the liquor store for them. I’m sure some of the teens I’ve seen drinking are no more than 16.

The so-called security in Douglas Park is a complete joke. They do nothing to deter what is going on, even when you bring something to their attention.

Whatever they are paid could be surely used for some better purpose, as they serve none.

These teens smash glass bottles when they are empty. It is unsafe for young children to play on the grass and run around with that glass there.

These people also use the gardens, particularly the round garden in the centre of the park, as a toilet. This is beyond disgusting. I feel sorry for the women and men who work in these gardens to keep them beautiful.

Now that the weather is getting better, we will have people camping overnight in the park all summer long, and leaving garbage in their wake.

Why is nothing being done to preserve this special place in Langley? The mess this year is far worse than last year.

The city is spending a lot of money to improve its image, but I wonder if they should bother, when they let the parks be taken over and run down by young people.

You can’t approach these people without fear for yourself and your dog.

Recently, a couple was harassed and assaulted because the man dared to make a comment to young men who were defecating almost right in front of them.

Police do nothing to deter this type of behaviour. They have very little presence in the park. Instead, they sit in their cars behind the community police station. Why don’t they sit in their cars on Park Avenue and watch

Langley City has invested millions of dollars in Douglas Park, including construction of a bandshell, but the park is often under siege by people who use it for drinking parties, says letter writer D. Forster. what’s going on in the park?

It might help send a few of these young people on their way, but I know some will simply defy the police and any authority figure.

I recently noticed a girl named Crystal P. felt it was appropriate to sign her name on one of the benches donated and paid for by a family, on behalf of

Not having a City byelection has nothing to do with saving money

Editor: Re: Your opinion (“Leaderless council,” editorial, The Times, June 20).

Thank goodness we have one council member who has the interest of Langley City at heart. Councillor Dave Hall should be applauded for his guts in insisting that there be a byelection to replace the vacating mayor.

Please City council, do not use the $45,000 amount as the reason for not going to the polls. People are just not that naïve.

Taxpayers have not forgotten the million dollar-plus overrun on the 208 Street resurfacing project. Nor will they overlook the $700,000 that The

the City is spending on unnecessary new signage, or the $700,000 rebuild of McBurney Lane that will do nothing to bring business to our downtown core.

The $45,000 amount would be a drop in the bucket. After all, it is just the equivalent of one more useless study that this council is so good at commissioning.

Remember the small lot subdivision study for south of the river, commissioned a year or so ago, along with countless others?

The decision not to call an election is all about preserving the status quo.

It’s about barring the window, less a

breath of fresh air be introduced.

It’s about the fear of exploring change that this City so desperately needs.

It’s about abrogating responsibility to staff rather than setting policy.

It’s about accepting the easy way out, rather than venturing outside the nest. Could it be fear of losing one’s place at the table, if new people step forward?

There is one thing that failing to call a byelection is not about — and that is saving the taxpayers of our City $45,000.

Don Woode, Langley City

their deceased loved one. This is very wrong.

Let’s stop the destruction of this beautiful park before it’s too late, and this park becomes another slum area.

Let’s see some real action before the teens destroy it.

D. Forster, Langley

Craig Davies a talented man Editor: I am shocked to have heard about the passing of my mentor Craig Davies. It was only a few weeks ago I asked him for advice, and it wasn’t the first time.

In 2004 when I first showed him a rough proof of a book project I had in mind, he immediately gave me an honest critique and much encouragement. I took his sage advice and the project was born. Besides his great skills as a graphic designer and communicator, he was also an accomplished photographer whose images, especially his black and white, are simply stunning I will miss his friendship and advice. It is a very sad day for everyone who had the privilege to know him, and it is a great loss to the Langley community. My thoughts are with his family at this time.

BC Views TOM FLETCHER bender is to overhaul the school district bargaining agency and achieve a 10-year peace with the teachers’ union.

Justice Minister Suzanne Anton has worked as a Crown prosecutor, so she’ll have some insight into the system that still grapples with Stanley Cup rioters from two summers ago.

Her orders are to get traffic tickets and other administrative penalties out of the courts, keep working on integrating police fiefdoms and generally treat the constipation that afflicts law enforcement today.

Oh, and get that new Okanagan prison built, to relieve a system that has inmates living in tents. And examine whether to spin off the Liquor Distribution Branch into a Crown corporation, a possible prelude to selling it.

Transportation Minister Todd Stone’s first test was a grilling by the Vancouver media. Yup, this Kamloops hayseed has been to the Big Smoke a few times, ridden that fancy SkyTrain and taken the odd ferry, too.

Now he has to impose the ferry route reductions that have been worked on by two previous ministers, and push Metro Vancouver through a referendum on ways to fund its own transit. If more tolls or taxes are going to be implemented, now is the time.

Coralee Oakes has made a political leap from Quesnel city hall to the Ministry of Community, Sport and Cultural Development. One of her key tasks is to invent a framework for a “rural dividend” from liquefied natural gas development in northwestern B.C. Oakes has to figure out how to “better provide provincial support” to sport and cultural organizations, but do it with no new money. All ministers have strict instructions to balance their lean budgets and take part in the latest “core review” to identify government functions that can be sold, delegated or shut down.

New Minister of International Trade Richmond’s Teresa Wat has to find a way to continue the growth of lumber and other exports to China, India and elsewhere on the Pacific Rim. On top of that, the alwaysdelicate softwood lumber agreement with the U.S. expires in three years.

here are nine new faces in Premier Christy Clark’s cabinet, seven of them elected to the B.C. legislature for the first time on May 14.

They have been handed some of the hottest problems, and Clark’s marching orders in “mandate letters” for each ministry. And this is the start of a four-year term, when unpopular reforms are attempted.

Take Amrik Virk, the former RCMP inspector from Surrey who’s suddenly in charge of advanced education. His mandate includes: “Review the student loan program to make recommendations for improvement to ensure the loan program is meeting the needs of today’s students.”

Virk must also set targets to “match the skills we need with the skills we are graduating” and require post-secondary schools to “ensure student seats are being filled.”

B.C. can’t afford to keep cranking out university grads with $50,000 in debt and no job prospects in a system that’s subsidized 65 per cent.

Virk will be working closely with Education Minister Peter Fassbender, who must “ensure seamless transitions” from high school to the workforce for post-secondary trades and apprenticeships.

Township looks to revamp its official community plan MONIQUE TAMMINGA Times Reporter

For the first time since 1979, Langley Township will be looking at redoing its Official Community Plan.

A lot has changed since 1979 in Langley — the population has doubled since then, now topping 100,000 people.

Large plots of farmland are now malls, big box stores and high density housing. Old farmsteads have been torn down along places like 208 Street, where high density housing has gone in.

But other areas like Aldergrove, with some areas zoned industrial yet standing beside housing, need a fresh look, said Township administrator Mark Bakken.

Brookswood also may be changing and little tweaks here and there in Fort Langley need to take place too, he said.

He said the Township has made minor changes to the OCP since 1979.

At its June 17 meeting, council gave the new OCP first and second reading, but asked for a full

workshop session on what exact changes are planned and what they can include.

The OCP document council was given is more than 200 pages.

It’s being done because Metro Vancouver requires a Regional Context Statement by July 29 — for its regional growth strategy.

The battle which has come out of this, is who gets to decide on land use in Langley — Metro Vancouver or Langley Township council.

“We would rather Langley make the decisions,” said Councillor Steve Ferguson.

This conflict of Metro versus municipality came up with the university district proposed for property owned by and neighbouring Trinity Western University.

The Township loved the concept and adopted it while Metro attempted to refuse it — even threatening legal action to block it.

Metro, which has already threatened legal action, says the plan to intensively develop outside the growth strategy’s urban containment boundary means the Township would have to table a new regional context statement and possibly also propose an amendment to the growth strategy — both of which would submit the plan to a vote of the Metro board. continued, PAGE 16

Township hands out community grants DAN FERGUSON Times Reporter

Langley Township council has approved over $350,000 in grants to local community groups.

Council awarded 94 community grants worth a total of $267,650 and 10 new capital improvement grants for a total of $69,600.

Recipients included service clubs, business associations, equestrian societies, animal care supporters, and organizations that promote wellness and education.

The money will provide classes for at-risk youth, support for arts and culture initiatives as well as health and wellness, education, anti-bullying, and outreach programs. It will also fund community gardens and environment stewardship groups.

Capital improvement funding will cover washroom upgrades, wheel chair ramp installations, kitchen repairs, and new flooring at several community halls, the BC Farm Machinery and Agricultural Museum, Brookswood Seniors Centre, Fort Langley Lions Seniors Hall, and the Langley Playhouse.

Council approved $17,000 in student scholarships, with two $1,000 awards going to each of the eight Township high schools and $1,000 to Apex Secondary. Each Township high school hosting a dry grad event also received $250.

Canada Day, Aldergrove Festival Days, and International Festival events each received $10,000 and the Fort Langley Cranberry Festival will get $5,000.

The Fort Langley, Brookswood, and Aldergrove communities also received banner grants totaling $16,500 to design and install community-focused street banners.

A total of $35,000 was put towards the “Nothing Without Effort” initiative which makes $5,000 available to each of the Township’s six communities plus the rural region for beautification efforts.

Charity drop boxes in Langley Township won’t be allowed on local roads without council approval.

The new rule, adopted at the Monday, June 10 council meeting, aims to enforce better maintenance of the bins used to collect donations of books, clothes and other items.

The charities that own the boxes are allowing them to get run down and vandalized,

deposit “as required by the municipal engineer” and carry out regular inspections.

If a drop box has “become deteriorated, dilapidated” or constitutes a physical hazard or “has become unsightly” a bylaw officer will give the owner 48 hours to fix the problem or the Township may do it and deduct the cost from the security deposit.

The requirement for council permission only applies to drop boxes left on public roads, not those on private property, which are covered under bylaws against untidy and unsightly properties.

Township staff will contact the charities about the new rules before beginning enforcement.

The only councillor who voted against the new rules was Kim Richter, who said she would prefer to ban them.

“They’re not properly maintained,” Richter said.

Rules crack down on “deteriorated, dilapidated” donation boxes

• WORDMARK:

an incentive to get borrowers to opt for a lender’s policy. However, such a policy, though paid by you, only protects the lender.

Title insurance is often used to avoid the expense and delay of getting a survey (which, for example, shows the placement of any improvements on the property) where a buyer is using mortgage money to buy their house.

If there is no survey certificate, the bank will usually allow the buyer to substitute a lender’s title insurance. (Another alternative is having the bank accept a short-form “protocol” legal opinion – this too would save the survey cost and protect the lender.)

Still, you might want to consider an owner’s policy for yourself (for which you pay a separate premium). In addition to insuring your title to your new property, it would offer benefits, such as covering you in case of previously unknown defects that a new survey would have shown.

As well, title insurance would cover you for other problems you might run into – for example, construction done by the previous owner(s) without proper permits (unauthorized accommodations or other “after-the-fact” improvements come to mind); zoning, land-use or building bylaw infractions; and set-back problems. A new survey certificate wouldn’t show most of these problems, which could be costly to fix.

While it’s preferable for a buyer to get a new property survey certificate if time allows, title insurance is another option. Being an insurance product, it has exclusions. Talk to your lawyer to get a better understanding of it and find out if it’s a useful product for your particular transaction.

If you’re buying a new home or recreational cabin in B.C., you might wonder if you should get title insurance. What protection do you get if you shell out the one-time premium for this?

Title insurance started as a fix for jurisdictions with antiquated land transfer systems.

It insures buyers or lenders against potential problems with their title. Now a billion-dollar industry in the U.S., it has also for years been available in Canadian provinces like Ontario and B.C. But B.C. has a “Torrens” style land title system that includes a government backed “guarantee” of your title. It’s considered the Cadillac of land registration systems. In B.C., you can generally rely on the accuracy of the register in the Land Title Office as to who the owner is and what registrable charges are outstanding. A provincial assurance fund pays financial compensation if there are errors on the register or if title is lost through fraud (not an easy process though).

The B.C. system has worked well without title insurance for many decades, and is still considered fine for everyday, normal transactions.

The occasional title and mortgage fraud case gets a lot of press, but is quite rare. In the last two decades, only some 17 title or mortgage fraud claims have reportedly been paid from B.C.’s assurance fund, out of 16 million real estate transactions processed by the Land Title Office.

And as between innocent defrauded home owner and bank or mortgage lender, where (unbeknownst to the true owner) a fraudster transfers title to an accomplice (who then takes out a mortgage and disappears with the money), the lender now bears the risk of loss.

So is title insurance worth it for you in B.C.?

You may not have a choice, since banks like it. Recent high-level B.C. court decisions saddling mortgage lenders with the risk of mortgage fraud have given banks and lenders

One-kilometre rule for RV parking complaints

New procedures for enforcing recreational vehicle parking ban

Times Reporter

People who file complaints about recreational vehicles parking in residential neighbourhoods will have to live within one kilometre of the alleged violation under a new Township of Langley policy.

The new rule was adopted by council Monday ( June 10) during a special closed-door meeting of council.

The change was made in response to a complaint by Township resident Allan Balogh, who wanted the RV parking policy changed to require at least two written complaints from nearby residents before bylaw enforcement officers start issuing tickets.

At his urging, council voted May 6 to have staff look into a two-complaint minimum policy for RV parking and possibly “grandfathering” RV owners who have been storing their vehicles on their own land for years.

A report from the Township Protective Services Division rejected both ideas. continued, PAGE 16

The report by Fire Chief Stephen Gamble cited a legal opinion that grandfathering was not possible under existing laws.

As for using the two-complaint policy created specially for secondary suites to cover RVs as well, that “may confuse the issue even more,� the report said.

Instead, it proposed creating a new enforcement policy just for RVs with the one-kilometre rule.

The policy, which was passed at the Monday meeting, also spells out the procedure for bylaw officers investigating an alleged RV parking breach.

They must first make an

effort to speak with the RV owner.

If no action is taken, then they may issue a written warning, to be followed by a violation ticket and fine, and eventual court action if necessary.

The report wraps up by saying “the issue of parking recreational vehicles in a residential zone has been and continues to be a challenge for staff, council and the public.�

It expresses the hope that creating a separate policy for RV parking tickets will provide staff “with clear direction and expectation for enforcement and [RV] owners will be provided comfort knowing that there is a policy adopted by council that directly relates to parking of recreation vehicles

The Township’s position is that it is not yet subject to the new growth strategy because of a two-year transition period and can develop the lands without Metro approval, since the rezoning already has conditional approval of the Agricultural Land Commission.

Council cautioned on making any large zoning changes, because once that is put into the OCP, it would take a two-thirds majority vote from Metro to change it.

Bakken said the changes to the OCP are subtle but the unknown still lies in who will hold the power, Metro or Langley.

Some RV owners who store their vehicles on their property have complained the Township bylaw enforcement department is being unfair and unreasonable in the way it enforces the rules against parking RVs in front yards.

In 2011, the Township tightened RV parking rules, only allowing them in front yards if they are at least 1.6 metres from the property line.

As well, parking was only allowed between May 15 and Sept. 15.

From mid-September to midMay, owners must store their vehicles off their properties, or in the side or rear of their property.

cared for their mother while she was in the last stages of the disease. They know from personal experience that things can get a little overwhelming. When they were looking for help, they couldn’t find a company that provided a full range of services. The companies that did offer cleaning or driving services were often expensive or impersonal, and often had inconvenient lists of restrictions. That’s why Lisa and Christina started Girl Friday Errand Services Inc. Unlike other companies, they try not to say no to the things you need help with. “We try to do the everyday and random things that weigh you down and cause stress in your life,” said Lisa.

Ahhh, summer! Time to enjoy the long lazy days the season brings. This year, why not enjoy your summer by letting someone else do the chores? Instead of cleaning and weeding or racing around at day’s end to finish your seemingly endless “to-do” list, why not relax? How? Look no further than Girl Friday Errands. This Langley company provides an all-in-one service that includes household, cleaning, errand and driving services at rates that won’t break the bank.

CANADA DAY 2013 McLeod Park • 11 am - 11 pm

A myriad of field activities to enjoy!

Festival has been changed to a fun-filled one day event!

The Canada Day celebrations have been shortened to an action-packed single day family event. The celebrations, in their 17th year, have been a place for the community to gather in celebration of our country and entertain both children and adults alike! There will be pony rides, a midway, dog show, and an amazing line-up of A+ entertainment on the main stage.

Early this spring Jeanne Hansen, who has been a volunteer with the festival for three years, helped coordinate the many activities that make Langley Canada Day a fun and family-friendly event.

Hansen follows the celebrations philosophy about being family oriented event and contributes to making Langley Canada Day an amazing family experience. “We wanted to keep this 50,000 person event alive and help everyone come together and celebrate our country in a family focussed atmosphere,” she said. “It is the Canadian tradition of tight knit local communities like Langley that keeps our nation alive,” she added.

Something new has been added this year. The event will feature demonstrations from Flip City Gymnastics as well as a new Circus and Aerial Entertainment School called The Circus Lab from right here in Langley! Come by and let the professionals and students show their skills in front of the supportive crowds.

July 1st will feature different shows and demonstrations throughout the day. The Dogwood Pacesetters Canine Sports team will be presenting their ever-popular

dog show. “Come and watch the antics of your four-legged best friends,” said Hansen.

Bells and Whistles Mini-Golf will be back by popular demand offering your family a fun and festive round of miniature golf with a Canadian twist.

The Laughing Stock Ranch will offer pony rides for kids and many of the ponies will be available to be petted by kids of all ages. Lutini the Magician will be on the grounds providing some amazing roving entertainment that will intrigue and astound you.

There are lots of interactive games to enjoy. Have a game of laser tag. Take a turn on the swing ride, carousel, Wild Rapids giant slide and many other fun rides.

Climb on the climbing walls or get into a foam dance pit. “There is something for everyone!” said Travis Strain, president of the Langley Canada Day Society.

The day ends with a “Happy 146th Birthday Canada” fireworks show as a grand finale to the celebration.

Get ready to party this year at McLeod Athletic Park (216 Street and 56 Ave).

It’s going to be tough to take in the whole event and all the fun and excitement planned! The gates will be open from 11:00 am to 11:00 pm on July 1st.

Getting To Know The Organizers Travis Strain and Jeanne Hansen, who are part of the Langley Canada Day planning and organizing committee, answer some questions about what goes on behind the scenes.

What goes into planning an event that is this large?

Travis: The planning of the event starts in September of every year.

Basically when we finish this year’s event, planning will start for 2014.

Jeanne: It takes so many volunteers and sponsors to make this event happen. A lot of effort goes into the

planning and layout to make the event better and better for everyone involved.

In your eyes what is the main attraction?

Travis: In my opinion, main attraction is always the midway.

There is so much to see and do especially for the kids.

Jeanne: I’ve always been a fan of the main stage. Every year it seems the acts get better and better, and the focus is even more on the children who attend the event – especially Bobs and Lolo, our main stage

1st Anniversary

opener on July 1st at 11am.

What should people know before they come to the event?

Travis: There is a link on our website (www.LangleyCanadaDay. ca) that tells the public what they can and can’t bring. It’s important for people to take a look in advance.

Jeanne: Basically, no animals (guide dogs are ok), no coolers, alcohol or drugs… pretty simple.

What else should everyone know?

Travis: I think it’s important for the public to know that this event is put on 100% by volunteers. There

are no paid employees, only a small group of volunteers donating their time for the betterment of the community.

Jeanne: Also, the funding comes through the generous donations at the gate from each person who enters and the support of our sponsors and grantors. This event wouldn’t possible without the money from our sponsors – so please support them.

Canada Day Facts

Canada celebrates its 146th birthday this July 1st, 2013.

July 1, 1867, Canada became a self-governing dominion of Great Britain and was made up of four provinces: Nova Scotia; New Brunswick; Ontario and Quebec.

The name Canada derives from an Iroquoian word for “village,” kanata, that French explorers heard used to refer to the area near present-day Quebec City.

On June 20, 1868, Canada's Governor General, the Viscount Monct proclaimed that Canadians should celebrate the anniversary of the confederation.

July 1st became a statutory holiday and was originally called Dominion Day. Since 1983 the holiday has been officially known as Canada Day. July 1 is a statutory holiday in Canada unless it falls on a weekend; then it moves to July 2nd.

Some famous people born on Canada day are: Pamela Anderson, Dan Akroyd, Lady Diana the Princess of Wales, Missy Elliott, Jamie Farr, Rod Gilbert, Debbie Harry, Olivia de Havilland, Estee Lauder, Carl Lewis, Sydney Pollack, Alan Ruck and Liv Tyler.

Canada Day kicks off, what Canadians call, “those two months before winter starts”

Authors making a splash A pair of Langley writers have collaborated on their first novel BRENDA ANDERSON Times Reporter

H

e composes poetry and pens often-humorous weekly columns. She’s written thousands of newspaper articles and has several unfinished short stories on the go.

But a pair of Langley writers and longtime friends have managed to take their mutual love of the written word and weave it into something neither had ever before created.

After a more than six-year collaborative effort, authors Natasha Jones and Jim McGregor have released their 328-page novel, Surfacing — beginning with a book signing at the City of Langley firehall last Saturday afternoon.

McGregor, a Langley Times columnist and retired fire chief joined forces with Jones, a former Times reporter, in 2006, to begin writing the story of a boy whose unique connection with his father brings the injured firefighter out of a three-year coma and helps set him on the road to recovery.

But it’s a road with no shortage of bumps, potholes and potential wrong turns ready to trip up a family that is working to find its feet once again.

Sitting down to chat in a Langley City coffee shop — the site of many a meeting between the co-authors as they kicked around ideas for their debut novel — Jones and McGregor quickly admit that the book’s beginning was as much an effort to give one another a creative kick in the posterior as anything, after each admitted to

“I’m a lazy writer,” said McGregor. “I need to have people push me.”

Building on an online model, where writers are invited to log on and add lines to a growing poem, the two decided they could try something similar with prose.

“I went home and fired off a few paragraphs,” said Jones.

“Then he did.”

“We eventually sat down at 20,000 words — (and said) ‘I think we’ve got something here,’” said McGregor.

It wasn’t a matter of staring over one another’s shoulders and shouting out ideas.

That wouldn’t have worked, anyway, because they tend to hit their creative peaks at opposite ends of the day.

“Natasha is a night writer,

I’m a morning writer,” said McGregor.

Instead, the two just wrote, taking turns building on the story and meeting every week to discuss which turn the plot would take next.

You might expect this would be the point where things could go seriously awry as two creative people try to collaborate about a single story.

But you’d be wrong.

“We never disagreed on a single plot point or character,” said Jones.

“We were really remarkably in tune, creatively.”

Although each writer pictured some of the characters a bit differently — in terms of their physical appearance — they were usually in agreement about what one of their fictional folks would say or do.

That’s not to say the process wasn’t challenging.

“We would pace the floor for 20 minutes, looking for one word that would make a paragraph sparkle,” said Jones.

At 85,000 words, they sent the manuscript to the first of two editors who would go over it.

“We thought we’d send it out and get it back (with a note saying) ‘This is great guys, don’t change a thing,’” laughed McGregor.

That wasn’t the case, and so the pair set the book aside for a year to help them gain a bit of perspective. But they continued to meet and discuss it.

Then, using some of the pointers gained during a oneday writing course they’d taken, the pair began making a few changes.

One valuable piece of advice: “Show, don’t tell.”

During a visit to a mountain lake, Jones knelt and felt the moss and slime, so she could use that information to convey all the senses of a man trying desperately to save himself from drowning.

Another tip they gained at the seminar: “Kill the darlings.”

It may be the greatest piece of writing in the world, but if it’s not relevant, it has to go.

“We went through it again, tightened it, lost scenes and characters,” said McGregor.

Then a second editor took the book and made it just that much better, he said.

“I would encourage anybody doing any kind of writing to get professional help,” he laughed.

Once they were happy with their story, Jones and McGregor sent it to a few publishers to gauge their level of interest.

The pair received some nice letters, but no offers to publish it.

So they formed Crystal Lake Press, named for the lake that features heavily in the book, and published it themselves.

Now that the writing and all the other decisions — what the cover would look like, which typeface to use and so on — have been made, the pair is concentrating on promoting sales.

“Neither one of us expects to be able to buy an estate,” said McGregor, “but we hope to cover our costs.”

Surfacing is available at Coles in the Willowbrook Mall and at Wendel’s Book Store in Fort Langley.

Online, it can be purchased at www.crystallakepress.com.

It is available for Kobo e-readers and at Amazon.com, it can be purchased in both soft cover and Kindle editions.

Jones and McGregor will also be at Otter Co-op, 248 Street and Fraser Highway, on Saturday, July 20, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.

A team of Karen musicians and singers from Burma (Myanmar) will return to give one more performance in Surrey before leaving Canada.

The Klo & Kweh Music Team will present a variety of music styles titled ‘The Endless Htee-SetMet-Ywar’ on Friday, July 5 at 7 p.m. at the Bell Performing Arts Centre.

“Music is a universal language,” said Candy Marvel, chairperson of B.C.’s Karen Community Society.

“While the concert will be mostly in the Karen language, everyone seems to enjoy their upbeat performances.”

The top Karen musicians from Burma arrived in Canada last month to perform a series of concerts.

In late May, the music team kicked off an eight city Canadian tour in Surrey. It was to end in Toronto on June 29.

Thousands of enthusiastic fans across Canada have

attended the performances in each city and now they will do a return engagement in Metro Vancouver.

The Klo and Kweh Music Team was founded in 2001 and is one of the best known Karen musical bands among ethnic Karen people living in Burma, Thailand and the world over.

As a non-profit musical group, its main objective is to preserve and promote Karen language and cultural identity, and engage in intercultural exchange activities through music.

Since 2007, thousands of former Karen refugees are now living in Canada, with many having relocated to the Metro

Langley actress hits the stage in comedy’s Canadian debut

BE A FAN BE A FAN Volunteer Volunteer 2013 Special Olympics BC Summer Games 2013 Special Olympics July 11 - 14 Langley BC Summer Games

ALEX BROWNE Black Press

It’s a lot easier playing Sherlock Holmes than trying to be him.

That’s the crux of the matter in the comedy The Game’s Afoot by Ken Ludwig which makes its Canadian debut July 10-28 at the Coast Capital Playhouse in White Rock, presented by Peninsula Productions, helmed by artistic director Wendy Bollard and featuring Langley actress Rebekah MacEwan.

Ludwig’s artistic conceit in this 1930s farce is to plunge actor William Gillette — historically renowned for creating the role of the great detective in a phenomenally long-running stage adaptation of Conan Doyle’s Baker Street milieu — into a baffling real-life mystery.

When Gillette invites a number of people associated with his theatrical career to his gadget-heavy mock castle in Connecticut on Christmas Eve (with the secret agenda of solving a crime), it quickly becomes evident that his powers as a detective do not approach those of the mythical Holmes.

And therein lies the farce, according to Surrey actor Ben Odberg, who plays Gillette.

Though he’s played comedy before — and his quirky, individualistic interpretations make his dramatic work consistently interesting — Odberg admits this is the first time he’s actually played in a farce.

“I’m loving it,” he said. “It’s been just a blast. I love all the running back and forth, even though we’re not exactly slamming in and out of doors.

It’s a lot of fun.”

He’s also relishing the potential for “melodramatic and over-dramatic acting” inherent in the piece, he said.

Odberg is the first to acknowledge that Ludwig’s play riffs on certain elements of the life of the real Gillette, rather than attempting to portray him accurately.

“The real William Gillette was the first actor who was noted because he brought in realism to the stage. That’s not the William Gillette the audience will be getting in this show.”

MacEwan, meanwhile, takes on the role of Aggie.

The Langley actress has performed with the Fraser Valley Gilbert & Sullivan Society on several occasions. She also played Rosalind in Bard in the Valley’s production of As You Like It and Stepmother with White Rock Players.

“I have never done a mystery before. I enjoy the intrigue and growing paranoia.

“And I love the ’30s — the costumes and the hair are so glamorous,” said MacEwan of playing Aggie.

“I just love working with our director, Wendy.

She has so much to offer to all of us actors, I’m just trying to lap up all her advice. I love the freedom working with her, and the way she shares her vision. She’s a real gem in the theater world.”

Odberg said while he doesn’t want to spoil any of the twists in the script, the audience

should be prepared for a few surprises.

The initial conundrum that begins the play ends up being dwarfed by any even bigger mystery, he said.

“Like all good mysteries, there has to be a murder,” he noted. “And from there, it all spins out of control.”

Although the farcical element is very prominent, there’s a good underlying mystery, with plenty of red herrings thrown in.

“I think people will be waiting to see who did it. It’s a gold mine for people who love mysteries — and for people who love comedy.”

The resulting artwork — all composed in Black & White — is both dramatic and elegant, and it’s on display now at the gallery on Glover Road in Fort Langley.

Although most of the artists are painters, the black and white theme extends beyond the medium.

Visitors walking into the gallery will also find examples of fused glass, pen and ink drawings, and printmaking.

“One of the members suggested the concept, and I believe that the other artists enjoyed the idea as a challenge, and rose to it,” said the gallery’s manager, Tim Fraser.

Sisters hoping to strike gold at Games Aldergrove twins take aim at Special Olympics BC Summer Games GARY AHUJA Times Sports

If Special Olympics presented medals for talking, then twin sisters Jennifer and Ashleigh King would have to be considered the favourites for the gold medal in that event.

No doubt about it, the twin sisters love to talk, with Jennifer the elder and louder of the two.

And Special Olympics provides them a great avenue to do just that. “For them, it is social,� said Lesley Claxton, who is the day program supervisor at Pacific Development Pathways, a local program they attend in Langley.

Pathways is designed for people with developmental disabilities and is funded by Community Living BC. The sisters have also lived with Claxton for the past six years. “The more they can socialize, the happier they are,� Claxton added. “And it also gets them away from the computer and the TV. “The bonus is that they get to be so social when they are out there.�

The King sisters — who are 26 — have been a part of Special Olympics since they were nine or 10 years old. “Special Olympics has made such a monumental change to their lives for the better,� said Christine Kobler, who adopted the girls as newborns. “I can’t even really explain it. It has given them a sense of purpose, a life. “Without Special Olympics, I don’t even know what they

Gary AHUJA/Langley Times

Jennifer (left) and Ashleigh King will both be going for the gold medal at next month’s Special Olympics BC Summer Games in Langley. would be doing.�

The girls were born with Fetal Alcohol Syndrome Disorder as well as obsessive compulsive disorder.

Their adoptive parents put them into Special Olympics mainly for the social aspect of the program. “So they would have the opportunity to mix with other like-minded special needs kids,�

Kobler explained. “I am extremely grateful for

the program; I think it is one of the most worthy causes out there. “And without the volunteers that run it — to give these kids the opportunities — they deserve the praise.�

The sisters, who grew up in Surrey, play a variety of sports, including swimming, floor hockey, soccer, baseball, golf, and bowling.

And next month (July 11 to July 14), both sisters will be

going for gold as the Special Olympics BC Summer Games will be held in Langley.

They are competing in the fivepin bowling competition. “I love bowling and hanging out with our friends at the bowling alley,� said Jennifer, who tends to dominate the conversation over her sister. “And getting snacks.�

They bowl out of a league at Alder Alley in Aldergrove.

This won’t be their first time

competing at a provincial Games competition.

Both sisters have silver medals from soccer while Ashleigh — the younger one — also has a bronze medal from baseball.

They are thrilled to get the chance to compete at home in Langley, in front of their friends and family. But make no mistake, they may love each other dearly and be best friends, but there is also a fierce competitiveness between the pair, whether it be about what to watch on TV, who gets the remote, or who answers a question first.

They are also sad when separated, as Claxton found out when Jennifer was gone for a month following surgery. “Ashleigh was a mess,� she said. “I missed when she is not around the house,� Ashleigh said. “It was quiet. “But I did get the TV,� she added.

Claxton notices a change in the two when Special Olympics is on a break during the summer.

The sisters — who graduated from Aldergrove Community Secondary School in 2005 — started living with Claxton when their mom was moving to Chilliwack. “It just came the time,� Kobler said. “They wanted a little more independence, but were not able to live on their own.�

The sisters still see both their parents — who are separated — on weekends and summer camping trips.

And living with Claxton, her husband and three sons, the sisters are just part of the family, complete with chores. “We have our fights, every family does,� Claxton said. “But we love having them around.�

They both also hold part-time jobs — Jennifer at Little Caesars and Ashleigh at Old Navy — in Langley.

Lange hops on Express

Daniell Lange is hopping aboard the Coquitlam Express, signing on with the junior A hockey club for next season.

Lange had a spectacular season with the junior B Richmond Sockeyes in 2012/13, helping the team

win a bevy of trophies: the Pacific Junior Hockey League championship, the Cyclone Taylor Cup (provincial championship) and the Keystone Cup (western Canadian championship).

Lange, who turns 18 in October, scored 34

goals and 53 points in 44 regular season games for Richmond. His 34 goals were tops in the PJIHL. Lange, a Langley Minor Hockey Association product, added 14 goals and 31 points in 23 postseason games.

At the Sockeyes’ year-

end banquet, Lange received the team’s rookie of the year award, threestar award, most popular player award and the Iron Man award.

Lange shared the Sockeyes’ rookie of the year award with another Langley Minor Hockey

Association product, Danton Heinen.

Earlier this month, Heinen signed with another BCHL club, the Surrey Eagles.

The pair have played together —mainly on the same line — since their minor hockey days.

Jordan Lennerton’s stellar first season at the Triple-A level is not going unnoticed.

A first-baseman for the Toledo Mud Hens of the International League, Lennerton is tied for sixth in both home runs (12) and batting average (.330) in 73 games this season. He is also third on the Mud Hens with 37 RBIs. And those numbers have earned Lennerton a spot on the Triple-A all-star game ballot.

The deadline to vote is 8:59 p.m. PST on Wednesday, June 26.

Voting can be done at www.milb.com and clicking on the Triple-A all-star ballot link.

The all-star game will be held July 17 in Reno, Nevada.

Toledo is part of

Tuft off to Tour de France

P

romoting the area we live in is a way of ensuring our continued enjoyment of the area by having growth in population and interest by outside business to buy here or even relocate here.

It goes hand in hand with promoting our own businesses and workplaces. What better time exists to promote than at the Cruise-In? The Langley Good Times Cruise-In is the best attended charity event in the Western Canada. It is an excellent opportunity to see the downtown core of Langley at its best. With over 100,000 people walking around the town, there is a distinct air of excitement and electricity that is hard to replicate any other time. The merchants have their businesses painted up and are doing their best to display their wares to all that are in the area. The entire city is mobilized to promote itself and to assist in the fundraising. The presence of over 1,000 classic cars gives us reason to show off our city and bring people to it.

And the real benefit of the show is that all of the funds that are raised here are donated to local charities to assist Langley area people with challenges and problems. From the Langley Hospital Auxiliary to the Valley Therapeutic Equestrian Centre or the Langley Boys and Girls club, the thousands of dollars

the Detroit Tigers organization.

Lennerton, a 27-year-old from Langley, played in the Langley Blaze organization.

After graduating from Brookswood Secondary, he spent time at El Paso Community College and then Oregon State University, where he helped the Beavers win the U.S. College World Series in 2007.

Lennerton was a 33rd draft pick of the Tigers in the 2008 Major League Baseball draft. He was previously selected in the 2004 draft by Toronto in the 50th round and the 41st round of the 2005 draft by Milwaukee, but did not sign with either team, going to school instead.

Svein Tuft is set to debut in the world’s biggest cycling event.

The 36-year-old from Langley has been chosen to ride in the Tour de France after being named to the nine-man Tour de France team for Orica-GreenEdge, an Australian pro cycling team.

The Tour de France begins on Saturday (June 29) and runs until

raised stay right here in our community and assist those in difficult circumstances.

If you are a business person in or around the city, or if you are a resident of the city or surrounding area, this is your opportunity to invite people to come to Langley and see what the area has to offer. Bring in business people and bring in tourists. Bring in anybody who may fall in love or see a benefit of the city to their future. While you are at it, make a small or a large donation to the Cruise-In and encourage them to do the same. The buzz of a successful event spreads to the attendees and will contribute a general positive attitude to the whole area. People will remember the feelings, the sights and sounds and smells that surrounded them at the fun event and will associate that fun with the location they experienced it.

Invite some people now to come to Langley in September to enjoy this spectacular event and to fall in love with Langley.

Show day is September 7th 2013, we hope to see you there!

Jordan Lennerton’s strong season has landed him on the ballot for the upcoming Triple-A all-star game. Online voting closes June 26 at 8:59 PST. July 21.

Tuft, an eight-time Canadian national time trial champion, has twice raced the Giro d’Italia and once raced the Vuelta a Espana.

He earned his spot on the team in large part due to his versatility.

“Svein is a world class time trialer,” said Matt White, a sport

director for Orica-GreenEdge.

“He’ll be crucial for our team time trial ambitions.

“He’s a strong guy with a huge amount of power to chase breakaways or look after the sprint train.”

Tuft rode in the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing where he finished seventh in his event.

Junior Thunder rolling with three straight victories After alternating wins and losses over their past six games, the Langley Junior Thunder have finally strung together consecutive victories.

The junior A lacrosse team defeated a pair of island foes — knocking off the Nanaimo Junior Timbermen 10-8 on Saturday in Nanaimo and then returning home to win a goalfest, 19-14 over the Victoria Junior Shamrocks at the Langley Events Centre on Sunday.

The offence was unstoppable against Victoria as they erupted for a seasonhigh 19 goals.

Brandon Bull continued his torrid play over the past four games, scoring six goals and adding three assists. Over his past four games, Bull has scored 14 times and added six assists for 20 points.

James Rahe also had a monster game over the Shamrocks, with five goals and five assists. Sean Lundstrom (two goals, five assists), Brett Dobray (three goals, three assists) and Nick Stone (three goals) all also found the scoresheet.

Against Nanaimo, Langley had to rally from a 3-0 deficit, taking control with a five-goal second period.

Rahe (three goals, one assist), Stone (one goal, five assists), Connor Abrams (two goals), Lundstrom (one goal, one assist) and Bull (two goals, one assist) led the way.

It also marked the end of a busy stretch that saw the team play four games in five days, winning three times.

In the first game on June 19, Langley fell behind 6-0 after one period against the firstplace Coquitlam Junior Adanacs, eventually losing 13-8.

The next night saw Langley build a 5-2 lead after one period en route to a 10-7 win over the Port Coquitlam Saints.

The results leave Langley with a 11-6 record and sole possession of third place in the B.C. Junior A Lacrosse League with four games to play.

The Thunder host Coquitlam tonight (Tuesday) at the LEC. Game time is 8 p.m.

••••• A lack of goals is costing the Langley Thunder. The senior A lacrosse team scored just 11 times in a pair

of games last week, earning a single point for their efforts.

The Thunder played to a 7-7 draw with the New Westminster

CLEAVE, Clarence Sidney Feb. 27, 1936 - June 18, 2013 This is to announce the passing of Clarence Sidney “Sid” Cleave. Sid passed away the night of June 18th 2013.

He is survived by his wife Kay; his 3 sons Rory, Dean and Lance;daughters-in-law Yvette and Adelina; and his four grandchildren Tara, Tyler, Spencer, Morgan and their families.

Sid was born in New Westminster, lived in Vancouver and settled in Surrey. His career was split between saw mills and paving crews. Anyone who knew Sid would say no one on the crew put in a harder day’s work. In his 40’s, he developed a love for golf.

He was known to put cream on just about anything. The most valued thing he left his children and grandchildren was his sense of humour.

He will be missed.

The Memorial Service will be held on Wednesday June 26, 2013, 2:00p.m. at Henderson’s Langley Funeral Home, 20786 Fraser Highway, Langley BC. In lieu of flowers, donations in Sids may be made to the Alzheimer Society of BC, 102-15240 Thrift Ave, White Rock, BC V4B 2L1

DESJARLAIS, James Lloyd Born November 4th, 1956 in Lac La Biche, Alberta.

Son of Emile Desjarlais and Helen Conacher.

It is with great sorrow that we announce the passing of James Lloyd Desjarlais at the tender age of 56, but we have great joy knowing that he is rejoicing in Heaven.

The Lord took Jim peacefully after a courageous battle with cancer on Saturday, June the 15th at 2:15pm as he lay surrounded by his family at Abbotsford hospital.

James is remembered by his beloved wife Darlene and his four children Michelle (Michael), Jarrett, Davis (Morgan) and Matthew (Catalina). He will be missed deeply by his precious grandbabies, Melodie, Lily, Maycee, Myelle, Adele and Oliver.

He is predeceased by his brothers Gerald Desjarlais and David Liddle and survived by his 3 sisters Christine Barrell (Chris), Rose Desjarlais, and Shirley Ferguson, his 3 brothers Frank Desjarlais (Dawn), George Liddle, and Donald Liddle as well as numerous nieces, nephews and friends.

We will all miss him greatly.

We will remember James for his contagious smile, his willingness to help anyone, anywhere and at anytime. His ability to love unconditionally made him an exceptional husband, father, brother, uncle, cousin and friend.

He loved to hunt, fish, and camp and tried to get away to do these favourite things with his family as often as possible, but if time did not allow, James would be indulging in his passions of cooking and entertaining guests in his home.

He started his family business, Riverside Heating & Plumbing in 2007, which serviced much of the Lower Mainland, his main purpose was to leave this legacy, knowing his family would carry on running it successfully throughout our beautiful city. His success came from his professional work ethic and his passion to help people. He was very proud to be working along side his wife and four children.

The Celebration of James’ Life was held on Monday June 24th at 1pm at North Langley Community Church on 96th Avenue in Walnut Grove.

In lieu of flowers, a donation made in Jim’s name would be greatly appreciated to: www.twoworldscancer.ca You can leave a personal message of condolence at: www.myalternatives.ca

CRAIG JAMES DAVIES

November 9, 1949 – June 17, 2013 It is with profound sadness we announce that Craig James Davies, 63, of Chilliwack, BC, passed away on June 17, 2013 after a short but courageous battle with cancer.

Craig was born to the late Arthur and Dorothy Davies in New Westminster, BC on November 9, 1949. Growing up as an Air Force brat, he lived with his family in Bagotville, Quebec; Zweibrucken, Germany; and Gimli and Winnipeg, Manitoba. Craig flourished growing up in these very diverse places, was a role model for his little sister Bonnie, making friends instantly and almost as instantly learning to communicate in French and German.

He graduated from Gimli High School and continued on to receive a diploma from Red River College in Winnipeg, Manitoba.

As an adult he moved to Langley, BC where he raised his family and lived for many years before moving on to Lindell Beach and then Garrison Crossing Chilliwack.

He was very proud of the years he spent coaching hockey for his two sons and many, many other young hockey players in Langley.

Craig met his wife Kathy Davies (O’Brien) and they began their life together in 2000. They married on November 18, 2008 on a quiet beach in Hawaii. Together Craig and Kate enjoyed renovating and decorating their homes, creating beautiful gardens entertaining friends and travelling abroad and in Canada.

Craig was the owner of Design One, a graphic design studio in Langley for 35 years. He was very well respected in the Langley business community and was awarded the distinction of Business Person of the Year in 2011. Craig gave willingly of his time and expertise in various volunteer roles during the many years he spent in Langley, and was a dedicated member of the Downtown Langley Business Association.

He had an amazing talent for photography, particularly black and white, and recently enjoyed sharing his photographic adventures on his blog, www.thethingsisee.ca He was enamored with travelling in general, but had a real passion for France where he visited often.

Craig had many interests and was a collector of rare and first edition books, Canadian stamps, local artwork and antique bottles, to name just a few.

Craig was a gifted conversationalist and genuinely loved people. He had a unique capacity to connect and made an impact on everyone who knew him. He was kind, generous and had a keen sense of fairness. He was a strong leader and a perfectionist. Those who knew him well will recall these common Craigisms – “Don’t poke the bear” and “ If it’s not perfect, it’s S**t”.

Craig was predeceased by his stepson Corey, and is survived by his two sons from his first marriage to Bev Davies (Maly): Garth Davies and his wife Deborah, and Grant Davies and his wife Terri-Lee. Craig is also survived by his sister Bonnie Davies and her husband William; his Aunt Bonnie Howe and her husband Don; his four grandchildren Adam, Royce, Leila, and Keeley; and will be sorely missed by the rest of his relatives and friends.

In lieu of flowers, the family is requesting that donations be made to the Canadian Cancer Society.

A Celebration of Life will be held at 11:00 AM on Thursday, July 4, 2013 at Cascades Casino Hotel & Convention Centre in Langley.

FACES of the FUTURE Kyle Brewer Aldergrove Community Secondary School Kyle is a student who has an 88% average and has been on the Honour Roll throughout his high school career. Kyle is a strong Math student as exemplified by his top position in Pre-Calculus 11. Kyle has expanded his footprint at ACSS by being an active soccer player and a classroom leader in all of his interactions.

Kyle is fascinated with the world of business and he would like to attend University of the Fraser Valley to obtain his degree in Business Administration. Teachers have described this young man as a dedicated, consensus seeker who uses kindness and a strong sense of focus to bring people together. We would all be fortunate to have a future accountant with the character and attributes of Kyle Brewer.

Emily Peck Brookswood Secondary School Emily is a highly motivated and conscientious student who has regularly received the 90% year-end average award at Brookswood as well as achieving both Academic and Effort Honor roll every term.

As the school’s Relay for Life coordinator, she has been instrumental in organizing Brookswood’s largest team ever with over 100 students registered and counting to participate at this year’s Relay. In the community, Emily is a threeyear participant on the Township of Langley’s Youth Advisory Committee, which addresses youth oriented community events.

Ben is a standout in the Drama program at LFAS. He has played lead in the school’s large drama production in both of the last two years, this year playing the role of John in The Importance of Being Earnest – a role that provided a challenge, and of which Ben is particularly proud. His hard work on stage is mirrored by his hard work off it; Ben has maintained a 96% average over 10 courses at LFAS this year.

Despite his busy schedule, Ben has also somehow managed to find time to be a part of Project Kenya Sister Schools and Students Council at LFAS. Ben is described by his teachers as the ultimate team player – he is the first one to arrive, and the last one to leave, whenever a job needs to be done. Ben’s future plans include studying science or engineering at UBC.

Jarel Ayuson Langley Fundamental Middle & Secondary School Jarel has had a fantastic year, with an average of 94% in all his classes. These include Chemistry 11, Pre-Calculus 11 and Physics 11. He is very passionate about Art Foundations 11 and Digital Photography 11 and in both classes he is achieving marks of 100%.

Micaela Dickhof Langley Christian School

T H E C O R N E R O F F R A S E R H I G H WAY & 2 2 2 S T R E E T

An inspiring coach when she was younger made it an easy decision for Micaela Dickhof to give back to her sport. Dickhof has played softball for the past 10 years, most recently with the Cloverdale Fury. And remembering the coaches who helped her along the way inspired Dickhof to fill that same role for others. Seeing the young kids get better at their craft is a very fulfilling reward, she explained. And her work also inspired Dickhof to begin mentoring a Grade 5 student as part of the Big Brothers Big Sisters program. Meeting with her ‘little sister’ is a chance for the pair to explore and discover and teach what Dickhof has learned over the years. Dickhof was also very active in her school community, playing both basketball and volleyball, as well as being a part of the leadership program and working as a teachers’ assistant. Her efforts in the community and the school earned Dickhof a nomination for the Township of Langley’s Pete Swensson Outstanding Community Youth Award. Dickhof is planning to study kinesiology at UBC next year.

A CELEBRATION OF LANGLEY’S OUTSTANDING YOUTH Brittany Coleman Langley Secondary School

Bailee Cuthbert Aldergrove Community Secondary School

Brittany is the kind of student that is completely focused on exceeding expectations and achieving excellence. She is hard working, inquisitive, and a great critical thinker. Brittany’s passion and commitment to the Fine Arts, in particular, acting, have inspired her to pursue a career on camera.

Brittany has been able to maintain a 93% average during her grade 11 year and has been a valuable member of LSS through her volunteer work with the ESL Mentorship Program and the Peer Tutoring Program.

Bailee is a 92% average Honour roll student in French Immersion who takes the time to give back to her school and community. Bailee has consistently been scoring high marks this year such as 94% in French Immersion 11, 94% in English 11, and 94% in Pre-calculus Math 11. Through an Arts focus, Bailee has been involved with Choir, Jazz Choir and Band. In the public realm, she has taken on the French Speech competition that allows students to compete in the Province wide championships. This sense of leadership has also found a place for Bailee on student council where she has contributed to positive change for our student body. In the wider community, she has been an avid member of a local Taekwondo organization where she has achieved not only a Black Belt, but also Black belt of the year. Bailee has also been named in the lofty heights of the Canadian Championship in the recent past. Soccer, softball and basketball have all been sports where Bailee has performed at a high level. It comes as no surprise that Bailee would like to go on after high school to attend UFV and receive training in Kinesiology for a future as a Sports Therapist or Chiropractor. Teachers have described Bailee as enthusiastic, generous, and determined.

Eric (Sungho) Cho R.E. Mountain Secondary School

Kevin Dahl Brookswood Secondary School

Eric is a strong leader in the International Baccalaureate Student at R.E. Mountain Secondary. This year, he averaged over 95% in an academic load that includes Chemistry, Mathematics, Higher Level English and Geography after spending the last five years on the “A” Honour Roll. He was Co-President of the Langley Leos Club, Co-President of the Mountain Model United Nations and was one of the founders and Secretary General of the Township of Langley Model United Nations.

He is the section leader for the saxophones in the senior jazz band and was selected to participate in the 2012 Shad Valley program. Eric plans to attend the Sauder School of Business at UBC majoring in Commerce.

Kevin is an exceptional young man who excels in academics, athletics and music. Consistently achieving high grades in all of his courses has led to Kevin obtaining the Honour Roll for every term he has attended at Brookswood. As an athlete, he participates in both hockey and soccer and he is a certified lifeguard as well. As a musician, Kevin plays a variety of instruments, most of which he is selftaught. He writes and composes his own music and one of his recent compositions was featured in an award winning film. Kevin is most well-known for his efforts in establishing “story time” in his math class.

Andrew Ledger D.W. Poppy Secondary School

Chloe Lim Walnut Grove Secondary School

Andrew is a very hard worker and takes every opportunity to challenge himself academically. He was the highest ranking student in our school for the Canadian Open Math Challenge 2012; in fact the lowest mark he received throughout high school was 91%. Andrew is a great addition to our Fine Arts programs at Poppy. He is an integral member of Vocal Jazz, Concert Choir and Musical Theatre groups. He did a great job playing Professor Callahan in our production of Legally Blonde this year. He has a very powerful voice and an energetic, positive presence that we will miss next year! Andrew is keenly interested in the computer gaming industry and will pursue a degree in Computer sciences, most specifically the Physics of Computer gaming at UBC.

his musical young lady is about more than just music, although she does manage to sing her way through life and sticky situations; she is also an accomplished young leader, who is destined to hone her leadership skills and perhaps grace the Parliament Buildings with youthful wisdom and a fresh look. Wouldn’t that be nice for a change!

Quite simply; she’s delightful: hard working, articulate, helpful and personable. She dazzles as a leader in Gator Pod (Walnut Grove’s 21st Century, Integrated Studies Program for grade 8’s) and the students love her: she is always laughing and has a great sense of humor.

Chloe has a unique ability to empathize with those less fortunate; she dedicates time and spirit to the humanitarian club, always looking for the silver lining. She has all this and a whopping 95.13 GPA.

Add an element of comfort to your home.

In addition to maintaining a 93% overall average, Denbigh has been a positive leader in the school’s Aboriginal Program, working with her peers and the younger students in the group. Denbigh’s devotion to her schooling is obvious, but she still manages to find time to strive at honing her acting skills as part of the Drama Major, and developing her skills as a woodcarver.

Next year, Denbigh will be starting her post-secondary career as part of the Kwantlen Xcel program at the same time as she completes grade 12 at Langley Fine Arts. Denbigh’s future plans include studying criminology, with the long term plan of becoming a lawyer.

In the community, Jessica has made her mark by helping to organize and plan World Food Day, job shadowing at a local Dental clinic, handing out food and clothes in the Vancouver Downtown eastside area and playing soccer with U-18 soccer team, the Aldergrove Pumas.

Jessica would like to use her strong academic skills to join the Life Sciences program at Queen’s University and pursue a career in Dentistry.

A CELEBRATION OF LANGLEY’S OUTSTANDING YOUTH Deven Azevedo Langley Fine Arts School

Ethan Wilkinson Walnut Grove Secondary School

Deven stands out as an exemplary leader in everything he does at LFAS. He maintains a 98% average, plays in three school music groups and sings in two more. He has been a part of the Artistic Learning Dialogue, and uses his spare time to pursue environmental initiatives, play in an indie-rock band called Derrival, and mentor elementary students in the school.

Deven has spearheaded the movement to build a community garden in Fort Langley, securing $45000 in support, so quickly that a beautiful new community garden is being planted this month. Deven had the enviable task of choosing between the TD Canada Trust Scholarship and the Schulich Leaders Scholarship this year (both valued at over $50000), received the Toyota Earth Day Scholarship, and will continue to develop his outstanding academic and leadership abilities at SFU this fall where he plans to study environmental science.

Look out world Ethan is graduating and he is the master of Physics and Astronomy at WGSS; his stars promise an interesting future. Ethan is a math challenger head coach, and co-founder of the Gator Nation Newspaper. Let’s not stop there; Ethan takes the time to give back to his community by sharing his expertise with younger athletes. If you happen to be walking around Ethan’s street you will notice that it is litter free… he has adopted a local street and makes sure it is spic and span. You may also hear him singing as he is minding his street; Ethan was recognized and received the most promising chamber choir award. Perhaps he will be the next Canadian tenor. We could stop here, but then we still need to mention that Ethan has plans to continue his education in Science and in his words: “Particularly, how I can use my research to solve real world problems”. Ethan has applied to international and local post-secondary…he brings with him 95.1% GPA.

You may have seen Graham at your door step canvassing for the Heart and Stroke Foundation and cleaning up the streets, YES cleaning up the streets; he has adopted a street. So think before you throw that wrapper. Graham maneuvers and dazzles his way across the soccer field both provincially and internationally. He is not just about himself and soccer he is always giving back to the soccer community…picture this young man out there inspiring young soccer players on the field. Fast on his feet, but even faster with his academics, Graham has won several top student awards and was off to Ottawa already this year on a Rotary International Adventure in Citizenship Scholarship. Perhaps, he left them with some youthful wisdom. As Graham reminded us several months ago, “Don’t forget about my passion for music”. He is an accomplished singer but he won’t be ‘singin’ the blues’ with a 96.2 % GPA.

Nicole Falk-Friesen Aldergrove Community Secondary School Nicole is an outstanding student at ACSS. She currently holds a 93% average due to her diligence, hard work and academic focus. Nicole has achieved a mark of 96% in Pre-Calculus Math 11, 92% in Biology 11 and 90% in French 11.

604.532.9445

The way Michael Miller sees it, it is everyone’s responsibility to give back to the community. After all, this is where you live, is his rationale. So when the 18-year-old wasn’t busy doing schoolwork or playing one of his many sports — Miller was on the volleyball, basketball, rugby, wrestling as well as running cross-country and track and field teams at D.W. Poppy while also earning a black belt in taekwondo — chances are he is volunteering his time. For the past three years, Miller has volunteered with Langley Animal Protection Services, caring for cats at the shelter and fostering kittens at home. He is also heavily involved in the 24-hour famine and the 12-Hour Relay cancer fundraising event. Miller was one of five nominees this spring for the Township of Langley’s Pete Swensson Outstanding Community Youth Award. It is an award his father Rick won back in 1980. Miller is hoping to attend the University of the Fraser Valley and study to become a high school teacher.

He is always quick to volunteer and go out on a limb with his sense of humor… Joseph manages to keep everyone laughing with his quick wit, especially the crowd he runs with-- also known as the track and field team who are the perfect captive audience for some laughs.

Stop the music please, and hold that trombone, in addition to music Joseph is equally gifted academically; he meticulously manages a full academic course load of sciences and math. It is difficult to say which direction Joseph’s career will take…but we do know he will do it with pleasure and a 92.67 % GPA.

FACES of the FUTURE Kirsten Chamberland D.W. Poppy Secondary School

Yousef Shahin Langley Secondary School

Kirsten is as accomplished in Equestrian Sport as she is in her education. She is a three time World Champion and will be competing again at the Paint and Pinto World Championships in June in Texas. She is an active member of Poppy’s Global Voices and, through that service, has planned events, raised funds for charities and participated in many activities to help others. In addition to this she is managing a challenging courseload including Biology, Physics, Chemistry and Pre-Calculus 11 where she maintains a 97% average.

Yousef is a conscientious, hard-working student, who is eager to learn and use the feedback from his teachers to redo assignments and expand his learning. He actively participates in class and is always asking the tough questions to gain valuable insight. During his Grade 12 year he has maintained a 93% average across 6 difficult academic classes including a 95% in Physics 12.

At Langley Secondary Yousef volunteers as a peer tutor and outside of the school he spends time helping out at the Langley Memorial Hospital. Yousef will be attending UBC and hoping to get into medical school at some point. He would like to become a general practitioner.

Hamish Frayne Langley Fine Arts School

Kevin (Woong Ryeol) Lee Walnut Grove Secondary School

Hamish is a stand-out student in the music program at LFAS. He maintains a 96.6% average, carrying a challenging course load, at the same time as he manages to be a National-level water polo player, a lifeguard and swimming instructor, and a busy tutor for younger students at the school. These activities are in addition to Hamish’s time spent playing in both the concert and jazz bands.

One moment that stands out for Hamish this year is being a part of the winning Jazz Ensemble at the Envision Jazz Festival, and receiving an individual award for outstanding musicianship at that same festival. After leaving Langley Fine Arts, Hamish intends to study science at the University of Victoria, with an eye to medical school after that.

Brittany Hewitson Langley Fundamental Middle & Secondary School Presently Brittany is achieving a 94 % average. Her favorite classes include PreCalculus 11, Physics 11 and Art Foundations 11. Brittany is able to maintain a high grade point average while working as a swim instructor for 7-10 year olds with the Langley Olympian swim club.

In addition to this, Brittany also babysits an average of 5 hours a week. After graduation, Brittany has ambitions to pursue engineering at SFU.

Kevin is a conscientious young man with an insatiable appetite for learning. Some may say he is all business, perhaps he is, he was the CEO of the school store “Wally’s Snack Shack”, and under his leadership the business flourished. When you think entrepreneur think Kevin; his business savvy will take him far, Donald Trump you might be trumped by a Lee. However, we really think that Kevin’s true ambitions and passions lie in Science… this year alone he is attacking AP Chemistry 12, AP Biology 12, Pre-Calculus 12 AP, Psychology 12, and AP Macroeconomics 12. We are wondering what is left for him to take as a grade 12 student… perhaps he will consider teaching on staff next year.

If all of this is not enough, Kevin has been accepted into the Kwantlen Excel program where he will start University studies next year. Kevin has not been all about school though; he is a busy volunteer and student assistant. He parachutes into grade 12 with a 95.88 GPA.

Julianna Matson Walnut Grove Secondary School Well let’s just get this out right at the beginning… Julianna is the proud owner of a ‘Corn Snake’. Yes, folks a snake. Who would think this quiet, academic, artistic and athletic young lady would have a pet snake, but someone has to love snakes, and yes, it would be Julianna. OK enough about snakes.

In her role as a Gator Quality Ambassador she is truly a leader and committed to making a difference with the people she works with and mentors. But it does not stop there; she is regaled as a meticulous and accomplished artist with a unique creativity and a promising artistic future. When does she find time; but yes, she also volunteers and shares her fun loving and happy go lucky outlook with all.

We could stop here, but we need to tell you that she is a very successful race walker… working on technique and speeding past all who she competes with. She is at the gates…. ready to ‘race walk’ through life with an impressive 93.56 GPA.

Adam is eager to become a Mechanical Engineer by attending UBC, SFU or McGill. Teachers describe this young man as a focused, highly organized, responsible leader who is ready to take on the challenges that the world will set before him.

She has been a straight A student during her high school career, this year maintaining a 93% average. She was awarded a $3000 Entrance Scholarship to the University of the Fraser Valley where she will begin her studies in the Faculty of Science to become a Medical Researcher.

Raynah McIvor D.W. Poppy Secondary School Raynah is one of those student who is “always there” at everything going on. She is very involved in Global Voices, Student Government and is part of the team that is working towards creating a more Accepting Environment for Others.

Academically she is outstanding, taking challenging courses such as Physics 11, Biology 11, Chemistry 11 and AP English11.

She is always pleasant, generous, nonjudgmental and willing to help. We are fortunate to have her as a role model for others.

Sawyer Lind Langley Fine Arts School Sawyer is a leader in the Jazz and Concert Band programs at LFAS, and is particularly proud of being part of the winning Senior Jazz Ensemble at this year’s Envision Jazz Festival.

Sawyer has maintained a 94% average throughout his grade 11 year, and plans to go on to study mechanical engineering at a university in British Columbia. His aptitude for engineering was evident in his winning spaghetti bridge this year; his bridge, made from 300 grams of spaghetti held an astonishing 27 kilograms of weight.

Logan Ennis Langley Fine Arts School Logan is a music major at Langley Fine Arts, and has demonstrated a desire for excellence in his music throughout his time at the school. He is a leader in all of the Concert and Chamber Choirs, the Concert Band, and the Jazz Band where a first place finish at the Envision Jazz Festival makes him particularly proud.

Logan’s academic focus is evident in his 94.5% overall average, particularly in his grades of 99% and 96% in physics and math. With grades like that, it comes as no surprise, then, that Logan intends to pursue commerce or engineering at UBC after graduation. Logan balances all this academic and artistic work at school with singing in the BC Honour Choir, teaching skiing at Grouse Mountain, and pursuing a wide range of outdoor activities when the snow goes away.

Malavan Subramaniam Walnut Grove Secondary School Malavan Subramaniam – Grade 11 Lights, camera, and action… emphasis on the action as Malavan manages to be in more than one place at a time. He has been involved in student council, Gator Quality Ambassadors, student aide, volunteering and track team just to name a few.

When the chips are down Malavan counts them…and why not, he is an accounting student who has exceeded academic expectations and he is definitely the man we want counting our chips.

Seriously though, Malavan is noted as the guy who never lets up, never gives up and refuses to let go, and he does this bilingually… honestly, who gets 100% in Science Humaines, well Malavan does. We expect Malavan with his confidence, his never give up attitude and his 92.86 GPA to ‘rock some world’.

Kelly Kim Walnut Grove Secondary School

Sydney Scott Langley Secondary School

Kelly for President…- of Walnut Grove Secondary that is! Kelly has been involved in student council and the democratic process since she was in grade 8. She is founder and Editor of the Walnut Grove Gator Nation News. Not only does Kelly run the newspaper but she runs cross country.

Kelly takes her care and concern of younger gators seriously; she is a constant smile and mentor for grade 8 students.

Top Math 12 AP student, Top Chemistry 12 AP student, it does not take a genius to translate her passion into a Science degree, and then on to medical school – maybe, a medical researcher – perhaps. Finding a cure for cancer.. we hope! We do know that whatever Kelly pursues will be done with determination, compassion and confidence as she negotiates her future with a 97.86 % GPA.

Sydney is an extremely well rounded student and community member. In school she has been an active member in Athletics through Basketball and Soccer.

While Jenny is strong academically, some of her greatest impact can be found in the arts.

Other teachers have described her as highly technically skilled, respectful and persistent. Finally, she has been noted as a student with strong insights and profound thinking in the technical, artistic, and literary realms.

Jenny would like to lend her consummate skills and talents to the medical field as a doctor for her future training and career path.

U is for Uy Seok and U is for Ukulele and the two of them make wonderful music together. Uy Seok has been a strummer for many years and the director of the Korean Ukulele ensemble. Wow that’s a lot of Ukulele.

Uy Seok loves math… well that is what his Kindergarten teacher said in 2001 and that is also what his current grade 12 Advanced Placement Calculus teacher says. He loves math. Along with this love of math Uy Seok is an exceptional student and excels in all subjects from Science to Music.

Lawyer, diplomat, teacher, professor these are some of the careers this young man is considering. But, music will always find its’ place in his career. Imagine the ukulele playing lawyer, tip toeing to the courthouse with his 98% GPA.

A CELEBRATION OF LANGLEY’S OUTSTANDING YOUTH Trevor Gauthier Brookswood Secondary School

Sara Trapara Aldergrove Community Secondary School

Trevor is a diligent and well-rounded member of the Brookswood community. Last year he participated in Encounters with Canada and scored a 5 on the AP Chemistry exam. Trevor is currently completing his final year of the French Immersion program. Trevor is fortunate to have participated in the first year of the Kwantlen XCEL program, where he has completed his first year course in Business.

At Brookswood, he enjoys being a leader of the Multicultural club, building relationships with our International students. Trevor was a member of the senior boys’ basketball team and is in his 13th season with Langley Baseball. Trevor’s future plans include studying engineering at the University of Toronto next year.

Sara is a highly skilled student and public speaker. Sara has been at the Provincial Championship for the French Immersion Speaking competition for three years running. During this time, she has also achieved a 94% average in her studies.

This is revealed by marks such as 95% in Pre-calculus Math 11, 95% in Biology 11 and 93% in French Immersion 11. In light of this academic strength, Sara plans on attending the University of British Columbia after grade 12.

Not only is Sara the top student in French Immersion 11 this year, but she is also described by teachers as focused, detailed and kind with a strong sense of quiet determination. Any future educational institution will be fortunate indeed to have Sara Trapara as a member of their team.

Sun Min Kim Langley Fine Arts School

Madison Ward Langley Fundamental Middle & Secondary School

Sofi is a student in the Photography Major at Langley Fine Arts. She maintains a 97% average, and who hasn’t had a grade below 90% in years. Sofi splits her attention between her academics, and working as the photo editor for the school yearbook. After hours, Sofi volunteers at the LFAS childcare center and for the organization called Compassion Korea, where she translates letters between sponsored kids and their overseas sponsors.

After graduating from LFAS, Sofi intends to study either History or International Studies in Korea. Sofi is particularly proud this year of the photo portfolio she developed for her AP Studio Arts course.

Madison has chosen to make the most of her high school experience by being involved and dedicated to her studies. She has received recognition on both the “A” Honour Roll and Principals’ Award for outstanding effort during each of her years at Langley Fundamental and is currently receiving an overall average of 97.5%!

Outside of school, Madison dedicates her time to competitive dance and teaching young children how to dance. Her determination for learning; drive to succeed and hard work will allow her to achieve any goal she sets for herself.

Madison plans on attending the University of the Fraser Valley or Trinity Western University to pursue a career in education. We are proud to have Madison as a student at Langley Fundamental.

Ty Winslade Brookswood Secondary School

Tiffany Hunter D.W. Poppy Secondary School

Ty is an outstanding student who puts forward his best effort into everything he does. This includes his schoolwork as well as other activities he takes part in such as basketball. He maintains great grades and is motivated to work hard. Ty has consistently achieved over a 90% average and has received the Honour Roll for every term he has attended Brookswood. Ty is especially interested in the sciences, in particular Chemistry, and he hopes to go into this field after graduating from Brookswood Secondary. In addition to course work, he is also interested in the arts, in particular music. Ty plays the guitar and enjoys composing.

Tiffany is another of Poppy’s academically blessed and artistically gifted students.

Tiffany has been on the A honor roll since grade 8, taking courses in Grade 11 and 12 like AP English, Physics 12 and Pre-Calculus 12. She is a hard worker and continues to maintain an A average while being a vital member of our service clubs and our Musical Theatre program. She was amazing as Margot in our production of Legally Blonde and is an active member of our Student Government as our Spirit Rep (suits her perfectly) and Grad Council. She also works at Twisters Gymnastics as a coach.

Tiffany hopes to be accepted to the Musical Theatre program at Capilano University where she will continue her studies to become an actor.

Tori Nickel D.W. Poppy Secondary School It is an understatement to say that Tori excels in the Fine Arts field. She has been a major player in our Theatre productions for the past three years, this year taking on the lead role of Elle in Legally Blonde. She is one of those students whose biggest challenge is her lack of time with which to devote her talents. She was a hockey player for eight years but finally had to leave it to pursue her passion, which is musical theatre. She is an important member of our Grad Council and was one of the coordinators of our Homecoming Dance. She maintains a strong academic program, works part time and travelled to Mexico last summer to participate in building a house for a family of 10 with her church. Tori was offered a $5000 scholarship from Trinity Western and will attend courses there in the fall.
