All 4 dancers with special needs ‘Special Stars’ program to launch in September By Kristine Salzmann A Cloverdale dance studio is launching a program for dancers with special needs. All 4 Dance will start its Special Stars dance program – non-competitive classes that combine jazz and ballet for ages four and up – this September. The program was inspired by dance instructor Amanda Younger’s experience teaching special needs students in a more recreational setting. Younger, who has taught students with a variety of abilities through Surrey Parks, Recreation and Culture, wanted to create an opportunity for her students to further their love of dance beyond what could be nurtured at the community centre. She was particularly encouraged by a young girl with Down’s Syndrome who lit up with
joy during her weekly ballet lessons. “She’s been there for two years now and com-
works at All 4 Dance, approached owner Kym Coats with the idea for Special Stars at the end

of May, noting the nearest similar program to her knowledge is in Chilliwack. They decided to start
a combined jazz and ballet class. Younger notes that ballet is great for building strength, while jazz is upbeat and promotes gross motor skills through movements such as running, skipping and jumping. Class sizes will be small, with numbers depending on the needs of the students. Student volunteers from All 4 Dance will help the dancers as personal buddies and group leaders to follow while dancing, the studio said in a media release. The students will participate in any community events the studio takes part in, and the program will culminate with a year-end recital. “We’re very excited to be starting this program,” Younger said.

Bizarre car-jacking ends in crash By Sheila Reynolds One man was arrested by Surrey RCMP Friday afternoon (Aug. 2) following a bizarre car-jacking incident that began and ended with a crash. Police said a 26-year-old man of no fixed address was driving a vehicle stolen in Lang-
ley when he came across a car accident near Fraser Highway and 182 Street in Cloverdale. In the process of trying to go around the accident, which was blocking traffic, he tried to drive over a median. His vehicle, however, got hung up on the median and he wasn’t able to drive any further. RCMP Sgt. Drew Grainger said the man

then approached the accident scene and tried to steal a couple of vehicles, before managing to get into a Mini Cooper that had stopped at the scene. The suspect drove off at an “erratic rate of speed,” and ended up getting involved in another collision near 80 Avenue and 176 Street.

A passerby flagged down firefighters – who happened to be on their way to the first accident scene – who detained the driver until police arrived to arrest him. No one was injured, said Grainger. Police are recommending multiple theft and dangerous driving charges against the driver.

Protest targets tree removal
Close to 50 people protested the removal of more than 200 trees at the historic Bose Farm last week, said Ron Sousae, one of the organizers behind the Save the Bose Forest group. The Aug. 1 protest along 64 Avenue in front of the 3.69 hectare property (located at 16420 64 Ave.) comes after Surrey Council passed a third reading in early July permitting the developer to remove the trees to make way for a residential development. The developer submitted a revised plan this year that spares 122 of the trees and preserves heritage buildings on the site, but opponents want all 300-plus trees saved and say the development will put an additional burden on already overcrowded schools and congested streets.

There is still no express bus service for Surrey riders across the Port Mann Bridge, as promised as a condition of the Port Mann Bridge becoming a toll bridge. And many bus users in Surrey frequently get passed by when waiting for a bus, and often wait up to half an hour to get on a bus at all. This level of service and blatant discrimination against Surrey and Delta residents is completely unacceptable. People in this area are already contributing disproportionately to TransLink, through the higher fares, and being forced to buy more gas (and thus pay more gas tax). TransLink property taxes in this area are not discounted in any way, despite a lower level of service. While a referendum on new sources of funding for TransLink is scheduled for some time early in 2014, Surrey, Delta and White Rock residents need to ask themselves if they want to continue paying disproportionately. While few politicians even want to talk about it, we likely would be better off with our own regional transit system south of the Fraser, as long as it retains good links with the rest of the system.

Two teams snag gold By Rick Kupchuk The Cloverdale Minor Baseball Association will be sending two teams to interprovincial championship tournaments. The Cloverdale Spurs won B.C. Minor Baseball’s 15-and-under (Bantam) provincial championship in Kamloops and will play at the national tournament Aug. 22-26 in Vaughn, Ontario. Cloverdale placed second in their group in round robin play, winning three of four games with the only loss a 15-14 decision to Vancouver Friday. In Sunday’s playoff round, they topped Abbotsford 11-0 then edged Vancouver 4-3 in the championship game. The Spurs also claimed the provincial championship in the 18-and-under (Midget) age group in Chilliwack, and will play at the Western Canada tournament Aug. 22-25 in Winnipeg. Cloverdale won all five games at the the eight-team competition in Chilliwack, edging the Richmond Chuckers 3-2 in a semifinal contest before scoring seven runs in the first inning of the final on their way to an 11-2 victory over the South Okanagan Tigers. Cloverdale Minor Baseball also hosted a pair of Mosquito (11-and-under) tournaments at Cloverdale Ball Park last weekend. The Spurs won a bronze Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times in every way. The Lord be with you all. 2 Thessalonians 3:16

Blood donors needed
Canadian Blood Services is urging Cloverdale residents to donate blood this month. In June during National Blood Donor Week, Canadian Blood
Services sent out a “Blood Signal,” a call to action to Canadians to book a blood donation when times of need are greatest, such as the summer. On July 29 the organization extended the “Blood Signal” to Labour Day due to a dire need to replenish
stocks. “As a result of nearly 12,000 unfilled appointments so far this summer, coupled with constant hospital demand, Canadian Blood Services is forecasting a need for 51,000 appointments to be filled between now and La-
News
in brief bour Day to replenish stocks,” the organization said in a media release, adding the summer months are
always challenging for Canada’s blood supply. Canadian Blood Services held a clinic in Cloverdale over the long weekend, and is hosting two more in neighbouring Langley at the Murrayville Hall (21667 48th St.) on Aug. 13 and 27, be-
tween 1 and 8 p.m. Appointments can be made by calling 1 - 8 8 8 - 2 - D O N AT E (366283), but communications specialist Marcelo Dominguez said walk-ins will be accepted. To find other nearby upcoming clinics, visit www.blood.ca. — Kristine Salzmann

Residents are warning that a cougar has been spotted prowling throughout the area of 192 Street and 72 Avenue on the Surrey/ Langley border multiple times in this past week. Delney Paterson, who lives at 74 Avenue and 194 Street, says she’s seen it four times this week, once in the early morning and three times around 8 or 9 p.m. She describes it as a “full sized” cat, about the same size as a large English Mastiff dog, and believes it is a large threat to children playing outside at a densely populated development just up the road. “I do feel threatened, the whole neighbourhood does,” she said. “It’s a big cat — it can kill. An animal of that size can be dangerous to the community.” Conservation officers have been notified and are monitoring the situation. No action will be taken unless the cat shows aggression. The B.C. Conservation Officer Service says to phone the Call Centre (1-800-6639453) if you suspect that a cougar is hanging around in a residential neighbourhood or killing pets. Other tips

Dry July one for the records
Not a drop of rain was recorded at Vancouver and Victoria airports during July, the first time that has happened since Environment Canada began keeping rainfall records in 1937. Much of the rest of B.C. also had an unusually dry month, with numerous local records falling. Williams Lake airport recorded 1.6 mm of rain during the entire month, while communities in the northwest had only occasional showers. The Kootenay region got a taste of the torrential rains that caused flooding across the region and southern Alberta in June. Nelson was hit with a downpour on July 17 that briefly flooded streets. Chilliwack recorded 2 mm of rain the same day, its only precipitation in a farming region that sees 44 mm in an average July. Provincial bans on all open burning including campfires took effect last Thursday (Aug. 1) in the Kamloops and Coastal fire districts, covering most of southern and central B.C. The ban covers coastal areas except Haida Gwaii and the designated “fog zone” along the west coast of Vancouver Island. Fire bans apply to open fires of any size, including those with permits, as well as industrial burning, fireworks, tiki torches and burn barrels. Camp stoves that use propane or briquettes are still allowed. Provincial fire restrictions cover all private and Crown land, including parks, but not within the boundaries of local governments that have fire departments, which establish local restrictions. — Tom Fletcher

By Jennifer Lang t’s the most delicious, laidback, down-to-earth community celebration of the year, and it’s all happening in Cloverdale this Saturday, when the annual homage to the tasty and nutritious blueberry takes centre stage in the historic town centre. There will be a little something for everyone at the 10th annual Cloverdale Blueberry Festival, the ultimate community event, blending an old-fashioned Show ‘n Shine for cars, trucks, and motorcycles, along with live, retro music, plus blueberry pieeating contests (p.11), homemade blueberry pie sales (p.12) and blueberry pancake breakfasts (p.20), along with free trolly rides, vendor markets and an arts festival. “We have everything that moves and has wheels,” says the main organizer, Paul Orazietti, executive director of the Cloverdale Business Improvement Association. The festival celebrates the abundance of locally-grown berries with food and festivities, all while capitalizing on a bounty of local events, including the Surrey Show ‘n Shine (p.15), a classic car show featuring everything from custom outfitted hot-rods to Model As, and everything in between. That’s not to diminish the role of the mighty blueberry, a fruit that’s pushed Surrey into third place in B.C.

in terms of annual blueberry production. Pound-wise, blueberries outnumber all other berries grown in the province combined, Orazietti adds. “There’s been a shift in a lot of the agriculture, away from the more traditional green lettuce and tomatoes. Now you see the blueberry taking over. That’s really the whole idea behind the event.” For organizers, there’s also a growing recognition of Cloverdale’s – and Surrey’s – proud heritage, particularly when it comes to being a transportation hub. “This is part of the amazing thing I’ve noticed with this community,” says Orazietti. “The past really does live here. It’s really amazing, the passion people have put towards saving history.” There’s an arts component as well. The Arts Council of Surrey is sponsoring the 9th Annual Blueberry Arts Festival (p.14). Various artists and crafters will be showcasing and selling their work in Surrey Museum Plaza (176A Ave. and Hwy 10), along with live entertainment at the museum stage from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. “It’s more than just cars and the automobile displays,” Orazietti says, pausing to reflect that muscle cars, vintage trucks, antique autos, and lovingly-restored classics, from hot rods to motorcycles, will be taking over 176 and 176A Streets between 58 Avenue and Highway 10, along

with displays and activities at Brick Yard Station and Clover Square Village, and other spots. The Surrey Re-enactors (p.18), professional actors, will be breathing life into some of our city’s most colourful pioneer personalities, from Reeve R.J. Sullivan (1910-1921) to school teacher Mary Jane Shannon. The folks at the Fraser Valley Heritage Railway Society will be welcoming visitors to Cloverdale Station at the foot of 176A and Hwy 10 for a ride on the newly-launched Interurban electric rail passenger service, a heritage rail project operating on weekends to Thanksgiving.
Or wander over to Cloverdale’s other new heritage transportation attraction, the B.C. Vintage Truck Museum, located on the Cloverdale Fairgrounds, in the old Surrey Museum, the northeast corner of 60 Avenue and 176 Street. They’re open from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Speaking of paying tribute to the past, Elvis impersonator Steve Elliot will be bringing his one-of-a-kind tribute to the King of Rock and Roll to downtown Cloverdale, where he’s headlining one of the three live entertainment stages set up around the historic town centre (p.15). “It evolves,” says Orazietti, ex-
plaining how merchants in the yearold Brick Yard Station shopping plaza have climbed on board, acting as a nerve centre for the Race Car Zone (p.16), along with long-time Cloverdalians like Royal Canadian Legion Branch 6, hosting a display of military equipment as part of the day’s festivities – not to mention where it all began, Clover Square Village, site of the irrepressible pieeating contest, Kids Zone (p.19), Cinemazoo animal displays, BMX stunt displays and more.

A colourful family show ‘Organizer of the carnage’ encourages visitors to watch messy but hilarious blueberry pie eating contest By Kristine Salzmann here’s a lot of laughter coming from the other end of the phone. Carolyn Orazietti can’t seem to help herself, and it’s infectious. How can you not laugh as she tells tales from the annual blueberry pie eating contest, a staple of the Cloverdale Blueberry Festival? Orazietti has acted as organizer and announcer of the contest – or “orchestrator of the carnage,” as she says – since its inception when the blueberry festival began 10 years ago. Fifteen people compete in each of the two sittings on festival day (Aug. 10). “People come from all over [to compete], it’s crazy,” Orazietti says, emphasizing the need to arrive 30 minutes early at Clover Square Village to register for the 10 a.m. (12 and under) and 11 a.m. (teen and adult) sittings. Some are “professional gurgitators” while others are simply from the crowd, eager to sink their teeth (and nose, cheeks and chin) into the delicious pies supplied by IGA. “These pies are just gor-
T
geous,” Orazietti says. “They’re all freshly made by IGA that morning.” Competitors must keep their hands behind their back while they dive head-first into the pie. There are other rules as well. “This is where it gets funny,” Orazietti says. There’s “no chipmunking” allowed – that is, no stuffing as much food in your cheeks as possible during the final seconds of the contest. And there’s no dunking pieces of pie in your water glass to help it go down smoother, either. Orazietti also looks out for “excessive debris,” when participants surreptitiously nudge chunks of pie out of their plate onto the table so they don’t have to eat as much. Lastly, no vomiting. If a competitor regurgitates, they’re disqualified. That last rule leads Orazietti to mention the “splash zone.” A lot of parents and family members want to take photos of their loved ones painted with pie filling (the perfect photo for future wedding day slide shows, she notes). Orazietti encourages shutter bugs to stand at least six feet back from the table. “If they regurgitate, you don’t want to be standing in their trajectory,” she warns, adding that ick factor doesn’t occur every year. After 10 years organizing the event, Orazietti has picked up a few
Even if you don’t want to compete, Orazietti encourages festival goers to come watch. “People love laughing at the competitors.” She adds that the contest is literally “a colourful family show.”
tips to speedy pie eating. Not eating that morning is an obvious one, she says. “And what I’ve seen people do is they kind of vacuum up the pie. They nibble off the crust and then vacuum up the filling.”

12 The Cloverdale Blueberry Festival special to The Cloverdale Reporter Thursday, August 8, 2013
What’s a blueberry festival without pie? By Kristine Salzmann Local blueberries, a decades-old pastry recipe, and plenty of heart goes into the Cloverdale United Church’s annual blueberry pie sale at the Cloverdale Blueberry Festival. The close to 250 freshly baked pies handmade by church volunteers sold out
last year, as they have every year since the pie sales began seven years ago. That first year, volunteers made about 100 pies – and quickly discovered that was no where near enough, says May Taylor, one of the organizers of the sale. Today, Taylor says about 60 volunteer positions need
to be filled in order to make the fundraiser successful. They put a call out for donations of blueberries and crust ingredients, while others hand pick pounds of blueberries at local growers’ U-pick fields. More than 250 pounds of local blueberries were used in last year’s pies.

“It takes a lot of coordination, organization, and a lot of ladies,� she says, noting there’s usually about 15 bakers the day before the festival busy in the church kitchen. Still more volunteers are needed for festival day at their booth, which is set up by the clock at the Surrey Museum Plaza. This year Taylor said they will likely bake and sell blueberry muffins as well, to appeal to those who would rather have a muffin than a slice of pie with their early morning coffee. But it’s the pie that has most visitors’ mouths watering. The pie crust was a congregation member’s recipe that has been with the church for decades, said Taylor, adding the recipe was around 40 years ago when she first joined the church. The recipe is usually used in their sale of apple pies in the fall, for which they make and freeze raw apple pies that buyers can take home and bake (donations of apples can be made

by calling the church at 604-574-5813). The idea for a blueberry pie sale at the festival came about when a few church members realized that while there was a pie eating contest, there was no one selling pies to the general public. Last year, their pie sale raised about $3,000 for the church. Taylor added the sale is a wonderful way to advertise

Quite a few members have joined because they came and chatted with us. “We make friends and get the community to know us better.� The Cloverdale United Church’s Blueberry Pie Sale at the Surrey Museum Plaza starts at 10 a.m.

Presented by the Arts Council of Surrey, the ArtWalk features about 20 different artists showcasing and selling their work, some of who will also be participating in an adjudicated competition. It’s all part of the 9th Annual Blueberry Arts Festival, although the art doesn’t necessarily have to be about blueberries. The winner of this year’s “Best of Show” will take home a Lyre Wooden Studio Easel, while second and third place will receive a canvas package, and a brush and acrylic paint set, respectively, all generously donated by DeSerres. “It’s mostly for fun, and a little bit for competition,” event coordinator Jennifer Wyatt said.

Take a shine to classic cars A signature event of the Cloverdale Blueberry Festival is the Surrey Show ‘n Shine, a day-long car show (9 a.m. to 4 p.m.) that draws participants from across the Lower Mainland. Last year’s show drew about 350 registered vehicles and thousands of spectators. The show is concentrated along 176 Street and 176A Street. Those streets will be closed to vehicle traffic so pedestrians can admire restored antique, vintage, muscle, and custom cars, trucks and motorcycles. There are cash awards and trophies, plus a $500 Cloverdale Shopping Spree Draw for those who register their vehicle. There will also be a vendors market (at 176 St. and 56A Ave. and Hawthorne Square/5748 176 St.), a Cloverdale Rotary Club barbecue at Hawthorne Square, and live music at the Main Stage (see below), including multiple opportunities to see an Elvis impersonator. Horsepower fans will want to head across Hwy. 10 to the Race Car Zone at Brick Yard Station. Watch 1/4 mile dragsters with live demos and check out other speedy race cars and models (see p.16).

Heritage on display A local resident and accomplished model builder has created replicas of heritage buildings in Cloverdale. Gerald Siebert will have several of his models, such as one of the original Pacific 66 gas station in Cloverdale, on display at Brick Yard Station (corner of 175 St. and Hwy. 10) during the Cloverdale Blueberry Festival. Siebert’s models will join those of fellow club members with the Automotive Model Builders of Vancouver, who will showcase models that compliment the neighbouring race cars in the Race Car Zone, Cloverdale BIA and Surrey Heritage Society president Paul Orazietti said. He added that the club’s models will match the time period of the 1960’s and 70’s race cars and dragsters on display.
A special feature of the Race Car Zone will be an original 1963 Doss, Clayton and King Top Fuel Dragster that will start several times throughout the day. More heritage will be on display across Hwy 10. at Firehall 8 (17572 57 Ave.) – look for a 1912 La France Heritage Fire Truck. As well, a number of Canadian military vehicles will be showcased in the Cloverdale Royal Canadian Legion parking lot across the street. Orazietti added that the new BC Vintage Truck Museum next to the Cloverdale Fairgrounds (at 176 St. and 60 Ave.) will also be open on festival day. “Even though the event is blueberry themed, a lot of the content deals with heritage and history,� he said.

Living history Re-enactors to perform at Blueberry Festival
T
he Cloverdale Blueberry Festival isn’t just about fancy hot rod cars or slurping down a slice of blueberry pie. It’s also a chance to meet larger-than-live personalities such as
Surrey’s first mayor or a Swedish pioneer who built a homestead at Latimer Road after sailing across the Pacific. Surrey’s Re-enactors are back, breathing life into the stories and characters from our city’s
rollicking pioneer years, with live, fun and interactive performances this summer, including the 2013 Cloverdale Blueberry Festival. Launched last year, the Surrey Heritage Services project involves using professional actors to portray real settlers and citizens from 1872 to 1945 – Surrey’s pioneer years. A new character this year is Zennosuke Inouye (played by Kevin Takahide Lee), a prominent Surrey businessman, chauffeur and World War I veteran. According to Surrey Heritage Services, after the war, he purchased 80 acres of land in the Strawberry Hills region of Surrey and built a pioneer homestead. He and his family were interned during World War II and had his land, business and home taken away. Through a persistent letter writing campaign to various government officials, Inouye fought to get his land back. He is the only Japanese Canadian war veteran to have his land returned. Other recreated lives include those of Reeve T.J. Sullivan, car-

By Jennifer Lang Two months after “Bandit� went missing, a Cloverdale woman is warning other residents about the importance of proper identification for their pet cats. “He was a little scrapper,� admits Donna Finlay, who is nearly certain Bandit was accidentally released as a feral cat, a mix-up she blames on an indistinct-looking identification tattoo. Her silky grey cat – a barn cat “rescue� she’s had for three years – went missing over the May long weekend and she hasn’t seen him since. She’s put up Missing Cat posters everywhere she can think of, but she’s starting to lose hope she’ll find him again. Finlay is desperately hoping someone who’s seen him will realize he’s a greatly missed cat from a loving home. Her search has included contacting several different shelters and cat rescue groups – organizations she doesn’t hold responsible for any mix-up. She just wishes she’d also had Bandit fitted with a microchip.
Microchips are implanted under loose skin between the shoulder blades, and provide permanent ID for pets, making it much easier to re-unite a lost animal with their human guardian. As hope fades for a happy reunion with Bandit, Finlay is taking her message public to help educate other pet owners. “I just don’t want to see this happen to anyone else, especially someone that’s got kids,� she says. She’s asking anyone who has seen Bandit or who has any information to call her at 604-837-6298 or email her at donnafinlay60@ gmail.com. Experts, including Lorie Chortyk, manager of community relations for the B.C. SPCA, agree. “We always do both – tattoo and microchip – when we spay and neuter pets as both are great in identifying pets.� Neither option is problem-free, she stresses, especially if pet guardians don’t update their contact information, says Chortyk, who also writes the informative “Paw

By Tom Fletcher The B.C. government is pressing ahead with its goal of a 10-year agreement with B.C. teachers, appointing a “public administrator” to replace school trustees on the board of their provincial bargaining agency. Education Minister Peter Fassbender said the change is temporary, and the B.C. Public School Employers’ Association will continue to play an important role in talks with teachers and support staff. BCPSEA will be under the direction of Michael Marchbank, CEO of the Hospital Employers’ Association, when talks with the B.C. Teachers’ Federation resume in September. Fassbender’s announcement
surprised school trustees around the province. He said he spoke to or left messages for trustees on the BCPSEA executive before making the announcement in Vancouver last Wednesday (July 31). The move is to meet a demand of the B.C. Teachers’ Federation to bargain directly with the B.C. government, Fassbender said. The government also intends to eliminate essential services rules that keep schools open with minimum staff during strikes. Fassbender denied the suggestion he is setting up a “showdown” with teachers that would shut down schools and turn the public against unions. The structural change is needed to achieve the stability for students and par-
ents promised by Premier Christy Clark, he said. “It’s not about pitting them against us,” Fassbender said. “It’s about finding a new road map where we can achieve that goal.” A two-year contract extension and wage freeze imposed by the government on teachers expired at the end of June. Jim Iker, who took over this spring as BCTF president, told CKNW radio his union isn’t opposed to a long-term settlement, as long as more resources are there to improve classroom conditions. The BCTF is returning to court this fall to seek restoration of bargaining for class size and special needs support. CUPE employees have not had a raise in four years.
