No money for Langley schools MINISTRY OF EDUCATION HAS REJECTED SCHOOL DISTRICT’S WISH LIST MONIQUE TA MMING A Time s Re po rte r

DWAYNE WEIDENDOR F L an gley Tim es

Drummers greeted the more than 600 people who attended the Kwantlen First Nation annual first salmon celebration on Friday (May 2) afternoon at the Kwantlen First Nation reserve on McMillan Island.

The Ministry of Education has given a “definite no” to Langley School District’s five-year capital plan, secretary-treasurer David Green has confirmed.

Green said the ministry rejected the school district’s wish list, which included a much-needed high school in the growing Willoughby area.

“We will resubmit the plan every fall with our highest priority being the high school,” said Green on Monday.

On the top of the school district’s $84 million cap-

ital funding wish list is a $47 million new high school.

Second on the list is a a new $12 elementary school on the James Anderson school site, followed by a second storey to be put on R.C. Garnett Elementary.

The Willoughby area is the fastest-growing area of Langley Township and the number of children moving to the area far outstrips available classroom space in existing schools.

Three new schools have been built or are under construction. (See related story, page 4).

Pair accused in 55 separate break-ins MO N I Q U E TA M M I N G A Ti me s Re po r t e r

A 19-year-old man and 23-year-old woman are facing dozens of charges, accused of keeping a hotel room and storage locker filled with stolen goods taken in a possible 55 different break-ins, including a house robbery in Langley.

On April 23, the Integrated Municipal Provincial Auto Crime Team (IMPACT) Enforcement Team observed an unoccupied

Ford F350 pickup truck in Surrey. The truck had been stolen in Maple Ridge on April 10. This vehicle was associated to a breakin at a house in Langley on April 19. On April 23, a male and female drove away in the Ford F350 and were arrested a short distance away.

A search of the vehicle and hotel room in Surrey used by the pair revealed items that have been reported stolen in vehicles and B&Es during the last four weeks from

“Garage door openers should be treated just like keys and kept on your person,” said Insp. Peter Jadis, head of IMPACT. “Once an offender has your garage door opener and your address it’s the same as having the key to the front door of your house. Many people are now switching to key fob garage door openers that stay on your key chain, not in your vehicle.”

Four get bravery awards

L an gley C ity Fire and Re s c u e pho to

A driver managed to hit three parked cars in the Army & Navy parking lot in Langley City on Thursday afternoon, coming to a stop wedged between two parked vehicles. Langley City fire department were the first responders to the crash. The department reported there were no injuries. The driver may have had a medical issue, said the fire department. Last week was the 65th annual Army & Navy shoe sale, making the parking lot a busy place to be.

Four Langley men are receiving bravery awards today (Tuesday) for saving a 75-year-old woman from her burning home last March.

B.C. Lieutenant Governor Judith Guichon will present the 2014 Royal Canadian Humane Association, Canada Bravery Awards at the BC RCMP headquarters in Surrey.

She is presenting awards to 37 of B.C.’s most deserving people.

They showed profound courage by placing their own lives at risk to help others in risky situations.

For his quick response and actions in saving a woman from a burning house, the Bronze Medal for Bravery goes to Nicholas Archibald. For their efforts in the rescue the Honorary Testimonial Certificate goes to to Lucas Anderlini, Daniel Braaten and Steven Wood.

On March 28, 2013, the four young men saw the neighbouring house on fire and didn’t hesitate to act. They looked for ways to get inside the house, which was full of black smoke and flames.

Archibald managed to kick the door down and tried to find the woman. Fire was all around her.

She found her way to the men’s voices and to safety. The home was completely destroyed.

Two trees had to be cut down — neighbour D AN F ERGUSO N Ti me s Re po r t e r

Two large trees had to be cut down in the area of 240 Street and 63 Avenue of Langley Township because they were dead and posed a potential hazard to a nearby house, some residents of the area told The Times.

Their comments came following publication of a story about the tree-cutting on Thursday.

The tree-cutting was reported by local residents Jim and Loraine Davis, who said the towering fir trees were planted on the former farm where she grew up, as an informal war memorial almost 100 years ago.

Another resident, Lorne Nickel, who is not the owner of the site of the tree-cutting, but lives on a different property near

The Times and told him an arborist had certified the trees as dead.

Davis said he was surprised to hear that, because the trees did not seem to him to be in obviously poor shape.

Nickel told The Times the owner has told him that the decision was made to cut down the trees before their condition worsened to the point where they presented a physical hazard.

Davis maintains the incident underlines the need for a tree-cutting regulation for the rest of Langley similar to the recently-approved clear-cutting ban in Brookswood/Fernridge that limits chopping to 20 per cent of the trees on a property or eight trees, whichever is less.

The Brookswood/Fernridge bylaw took effect April 29, when it received final approval by Township council on a 5-4 vote.

NEWS SCHOOL DISTRICT NEWS WORKING TOGETHER FOR STUDENT SUCCESS

604-534-7891 • www.sd35.bc.ca

Odyssey of the Mind takes Alice Brown students to BC championships Seven Alice Brown students entered the Odyssey of the Mind competition with their teacher Sheila Ford and made an impressive showing at the Provincial competition.

The Odyssey of the Mind is an international educational program that challenges students’ problem-solving abilities and includes categories for students kindergarten to college level.

Students must apply creativity to problem-solving whether it is building a mechanical device or explaining literary classics.

For the students of Alice Brown, that meant building a car from ‘found objects’ or trash and ‘up cycling’ the materials into a workable vehicle.

Featuring parts from two old bicycles, lumber, plastic sheeting and a cordless drill, the Alice Brown vehicle has two propulsion systems and is capable of movement forward and backward when driven by one of the students.

Working with a restrictive budget of $145 (raised with a bake sale!) and relying on trash was not easy but the group worked together as a team and dedicated many hours to the project in school, during lunch breaks, after school and over the weekend.

The team cut the bike frames to size with hacksaws and used wood saws on the 2x4’s as well as a drill press as part of the construction - a new experience with tools for many of the group. The plans evolved over the construction, for example, a three-wheeled vehicle proved to have stability and steering

The new Yorkson middle school, now under construction at 20626 84 Ave. will already be over capacity by the time it opens in September. Langley School District secretary-treasurer David Green said about 800 students are expected on the first day of school, despite the fact that the building’s capacity is 750.

Middle school to open with portables issues that resulted in switching to a four wheel design.

As well as the actual vehicle construction, students had to create and perform a skit highlighting their project as well as design and build all the props and backdrops for the production. The competition also included a spontaneous challenge that required the students to build a bridge between two desks that could support eight ping-pong balls out of pipe cleaners, paper clips and the like.

The team was made up of grade 7 students Jackson, Chris, Ty and Maddie; grade 6 students CJ and Emma; and grade 5 student Evan. The team placed 4th in the Province of BC after making it through the qualifying round. Unfortunately a small weld - the students cannot accept any help on the project - resulted in a penalty that caused them to place lower than their initial score.

Carpentry students donate bench to Senior’s Centre Students from the ACSS ACE-IT Carpentry program donated the bench to the Langley Seniors Recreation and Resource Centre and installed it just outside the front doors of the centre.

The students, along with teacher Andy Gaumont, made the bench from cast concrete and composite wood. At over 500 pounds, the bench is substantial and required six students

to load and unload.

Initially benches were being constructed for the WGSS hallways but since the mould was already made, it was simple to make another for donation, said Gaumont. A few seniors nearby were happy to join the young men from ACSS for a picture and expressed their thanks for the new bench.

The ACE-IT program allows students to work toward apprenticeships while attending high school and provides valuable trades training for Langley students.

DISTRICT WORKS ON SAFE WALKING ROUTE TO BUSY SCHOOL MONIQUE TAMMING A Tim es Reporter

As many Willoughby-area parents predicted, the new Yorkson middle school will open in September above capacity.

The $26.2 million LEED design school at 20626 84 Ave. has the capacity for 750 students.

But projected enrolment is likely around 800 students arriving for the first day of school in September, said Langley School District secretary-treasurer David Green.

With this knowledge in hand, the district has put three portables at the back of the school to accommodate the future overflow of Grade 6 to 8 students.

The middle school allowed for the Langley School District to reconfigure all other Willoughby-area elemen-

DAVID GR EEN tary schools to Grades K-5.

The new school will also include a neighbourhood learning centre with community programming for local families.

“The portables may not be used for 2014, but will be used for 2015.

“We had to put the portables in now because it is less costly.

If we put them in next year, we would have

had to chew up the new field to get them in,” said Green Langley School District staff have already been behind the scenes trying to figure out a safe walking route for students.

“Because the location of the school is on 84 Avenue, and the amount of buses going to and from the school will be significant we needed to address a safe walking route,” Green said at the last board of education meeting.

A staging area being used by a townhouse developer at 207 Street and 82 Avenue will turn into a drop-off area for students, said Green.

The district plans to finish a gravel walking path along 207 Street, connecting to the school, so students don’t have to walk on the road.

Langley school board votes for a raise BOARD OF E DUC ATIO N TRUSTEES WILL EARN $3,000 MORE PER YEAR MO N I Q U E TA M M I N G A Ti me s Re po r t e r

Langley school trustees made the “uncomfortable” decision to vote themselves a raise, adjusting their indemnities by around $3,000 more a year at the Tuesday, April 29 board of education meeting, The annual pay will be $21,485 for trustees, $22,485 for vice chair and $23,485 for chair.

Currently, trustees make $18,110, vicechair, $19,110 and chair $20,110. Langley trustees are the lowest-paid among all neighbouring districts.

In Abbotsford, trustees are paid $22,000, in Maple Ridge, $19,303.

The cost for the pay bump will be an additional $23,000 more per year from the budget.

Trustee Candy Ashdown was the only one opposed to a pay increase.

“I didn’t run for the money. It will come out of our classrooms,” she said.

Trustee Alison McVeigh told Ashdown there will never be a good time to take a raise.

“I’ve served for 15 years. There will always, always be budget challenges.”

Trustee Rod Ross made a motion asking that the raise be effective immediately rather than “making the difficult decision for the next elected board.”

“We took a pay cut in the financial meltdown so let’s get the raise now,” Ross said.

His motion found no support, with other trustees saying the budget for this year has already been allocated. He then asked that the pay increase start July 1, which is when the new budget is looked at.

“That way we are responsible for our own raise,” said Ross.

That motion was passed, with the current board starting to see their pay rise July 1. Staff had proposed that the raise not begin until Dec. 1, with the newly elected board.

The board’s indemnity rates were raised every year from 2006 to 2009 when trustees voted to reverse the 2009 raise because the district was carrying an unexpected $13 million deficit. In 2010,

trustees reversed their pay from $19,346 back down to 2009 levels of $18,110.

The deficit is now

paid off so it was time to review pay scales again, said David Green, secretary treasurer.

The board could be off the hook in having to vote themselves a raise come next year.

She is the second Siberian tiger to die recently at the zoo.

Bad time for raise

we

Published Tuesday and Thursday at 20258 Fraser Highway, Langley, B.C., V3A 4E6 by Black Press Ltd. Sales agreement No. 3298280.

Contents copyright of Black Press.

There’s never a good time for an elected body to give itself a pay raise, but there are some very bad times to do so. One of those would be right now, and it involves Langley Board of Education.

The trustees haven’t had any pay raises since 2008, as a result of the district accumulating a $13 million deficit that no one seemed to be aware of. Quite rightly, they declined the last pay raise, planned for 2009.

That deficit has now been paid off, but while the 2013-14 school year will see a balanced budget, there is a strong possibility of a $3.3 million deficit in 2014-15. The district is already talking of possible program closures and consolidations, or even school closures.

Then there is the example an 18 per cent pay increase sets. Teachers are in the midst of intensive bargaining with the province, and are being told quite definitively that increases must be small, and that any increases must be offset by savings elsewhere in the system.

Given that environment, how can Langley trustees even consider taking an increase in their stipend? The optics and the message sent to both teachers and taxpayers are terrible.

Trustees historically have set increases to go into effect after a new board is elected. But on a motion from Trustee Rod Ross, the current board agreed to accept increases, as of July 1. This too sets a bad example. If elected bodies are going to set their own salaries, and they have to at this stage, increases should only apply to the new council or board of education taking office after an election.

Trustee Candy Ashdown was the only trustee who got it right. There should be no pay increases in this environment. Period.

And if trustees are dead set on increases after the next election, they should only come into effect if the teachers’ contract is settled, and if trustees can find savings in other areas of the budget to offset the cost of the increases.

Question langeytimes.com

of the week

Should Langley school trustees get an 18 per cent increase in their salaries?

Answer online at www.langleytimes.com

they

The temporary foreign worker program is unfair to Canadian and foreign workers.

This controversy has been an ongoing issue for more than two years. It reared its head again two weeks ago when three Victoria McDonald’s Restaurant locations had hired foreign workers in place of Canadians. On April 24, Employment Minister Jason Kenney suspended the food industry’s access to the program, pending a review, amid allegations of rule breaking.

It’s easy to suggest the federal government should let free market forces of supply and demand address shortfalls in the labour market.

The only problem is Canada doesn’t have enough workers and the situation is only going to get worse without opening the doors to more immigrants.

At the moment, one in six Canadian employers is reporting “shortage of un/semi-skilled labour” as a major business problem. At the same time, nearly a third are reporting a “shortage of skilled labour.”

Unemployment is near or below what is conventionally considered “zero” in every province west of Ontario (and that’s after the foreign workers have raised those unemployment rates a percentage point, as one recent study suggests).

The simplistic solution to the problem is to raise the minimum wage to encourage Canadians to line up and take those jobs, but that won’t wash well with business owners, nor will it help in the long term.

As Canadians age (watch out, the Baby Boomers are beginning to retire), workers and tax dollars will be needed more than ever to keep the country afloat.

Those who say “Canadian jobs are for Canadians” are right, but what if there aren’t enough Canadians to fill those jobs — or want jobs?

Immigration is the only answer.

Progress inevitable Editor: While I accept that progress in inevitable, the recent announced twinning of the road (264 Street) from the border north has me concerned. Over the last three years, I have repeatedly questioned the Ministry of Transportation in Victoria concerning any expansion plans.

I have made three visits and two phone calls to the Township office in quest of updates of any anticipated plans, only to be repeatedly told there was nothing in the planning or discussion stages. I made enquiries as recent as February of this year.

The increases in highway truck traffic has become an audible nuisance. Enquiries to Ministry of the Environment regarding noise barriers fell on deaf ears, in spite of the recent study undertaken by UBC regarding the impacts to the physical and mental health by constantly repetitive noise, regardless of the decibel level.

I am concerned about the quality of my life and health.

I am quite prepared to enter a dialogue with all parties involved and willing to consider expropriation, although our first and only home purchase in B.C. has a lot of emotion attached. My wife and I are very fatalistic concerning the inevitability of progress, if all parties’ interests are given equal consideration.

TERRY BRENAN, ALDERGROVE

Trees were dead Editor: Your interview with Jim Davis on your front page (The Times, May 1) criticizing the cutting down of two big trees on 240 Street and 63 Avenue really upset me. I live just east of the trees in question, and have an unobstructed view.

It pained us to see these two tall trees dead. It was not a pretty sight. We also had to cut down a couple of 80-foot trees, which were rotten on the inside but looked perfectly fine.

But when I talked to the owner, who was also very sad about it, she explained that the trees died because the Township ordered them to put in a drainage ditch, by which means the roots got damaged. These owners are very upset and out a lot of money. So be careful what you criticize, if you don’t know the reason behind it.

MAAIKE WANSINK, LANGLEY

Cat appreciation Editor: April was both National Pet Month and Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Month.

For those that do care, progressive changes can always be accomplished. For starters, society’s collective psyche might procure within itself an appreciation for all cats, most notably those who are homeless.

As a priority rule, they should be collected and spayed or neutered. Perhaps their eventual great reduction in number will then translate into proper appreciation or at least respect for them.

Furthermore, respective city halls should order that pet cats be confined indoors when not on a leash.

FRANK STERLE, WHITE ROCK

D A N FE R GUS ON Langley Time s

Tree-cutting in Brookswood and Fernridge has become a hot button issue for residents of the area. This stand of trees is located near 200 Street and 28 Avenue.

Interim tree rules welcomed Editor: On April 28, I (and others) others made a delegation in favour of an “interim” clear-cutting ban to Langley Township mayor and council. The crucial word is interim, meaning temporary until legislation and compromise can be reached. I felt the efforts of council voting in favor of this temporary restriction contained laudable compromise; enough leeway was given so that the public was not delivered a fatal blow to libertarian ideologies.

My fear is that one councillor who adamantly refused to support the ban had not listened to three nights of public hearings championed by residents not in favour of the archaic Official Community Plan. Willoughby lingers like a planning mishap in people’s minds.

The same felt true of the Brookswood/Fernridge OCP open houses, a catalyst which invoked a sudden onset of massive clearing. Coincidence does not exist. Land owners standing to financially gain from development were primary culprits in this sudden felling of second-growth forest.

If landowners had a bona fide reason to remove tees, why did it occur simultaneously with the OCP on hold? Additionally, the invented neighbourhood of “Griffiths” was planned by outsiders representing stakeholders. I assume they will pay for servicing components, from schools to sewer. Township has not assertively pursued more industrial/commercial, as residential does not pay for itself.

No discussion of fire hazards existed beforehand. We live in a temperate rain forest with trees uninfested by pine beetles. So, why now?

Refutations citing personal property rights are an ongoing saga. I have had more calls and seen more damage

to neighbours living adjacent to cleared lots. What about their personal property rights?

Thank you for this interim legislation. We need to design a community clustering around existing natural features not found outside the Pacific Northwest.

CATHLEEN CHANCE VECCHIATO, LANGLEY Editor: What is going on in South Langley? Have people lost their minds, with all the clear-cutting? Why is this allowed?

Brookswood and Fernridge are known for their beautiful trees. There is a property on 200 Street near 30 Avenue.

The owners moved here from Europe, and totally desecrated their property of all trees. It looks like the pit from hell.

People are coming here from different areas, and chopping down our beautiful trees. I am completely devastated.

It is all for dollars.

Our poor birds and wildlife pay the price. When will we have proper bylaws and penalties in place, to stop the complete removal of all trees on one’s property? The Township is allowing our area to become the next Willoughby.

I have no problem with people removing dead trees, trees that pose a risk, etc. That would be the removal of a few trees, but nothing compared to what is now happening, and continues to happen in our little piece of heaven on earth. God, save us from the treemongers, and their greed for the almighty buck.

You & The Law

PRESENTS Benefits of collaborative divorce It begins with you and your soon-to-beformer spouse agreeing that you won’t go to court. Instead, you sit down with your lawyers, who are also trained as family law mediators in the collaborative law process – and the four of you work together to reach mutually acceptable solutions covering spousal support, splitting your property, parenting arrangements and the like. This is collaborative divorce.

Why would you use collaborative divorce?

Many reasons.

It’s considerably less expensive than pursuing a divorce the traditional way in court.

Legal fees for a collaborative divorce can be as little as 10 per cent to 20 per cent of the typical cost of going to trial. One cost savings results from the voluntary sharing of financial information, instead of being questioned under oath.

A collaborative agreement is also much quicker. An agreement can often be reached within three to six meetings (compared with up to two years for a trial). And it’s private too – you don’t discuss your differences and personal matters in open court and get a written judgment that is a permanent public record.

Perhaps of greater significance is that you can craft an agreement using problem-solving techniques that meets the needs of your family. The issues raised in your separation deserve a more unique and tailored solution than a judge (having limited knowledge of your family history, needs and goals) can impose. Crafting a creative parenting plan and customized arrangement for your finances, division of your family property and the continued operation of a family business are the types of matters that can be resolved in a personalized way.

You have an equal voice in the process and

can be assured your concerns will be heard.

The two of you make all the decisions and the resolution of your issues rests in your hands. The agreement you craft will have greater relevance to your family and, as a result, you’re both more likely to stick to that agreement.

Separating is never easy. But because you’re taking a cooperative rather than an adversarial approach, there’s likely to be less bitterness involved and your divorce will be less stressful on both you and your children.

Through this spirit of cooperation and with the assistance of your collaborative lawyers, you help to preserve a respectful relationship between the two of you.

Finally, a collaborative approach to ending your marriage is better for any children.

The sad result of battling each other in the courtroom is that children often feel the conflict. Research shows that it’s not the divorce itself that hurts children, but the fighting and distress involved. In a collaborative divorce, every effort is made to foster as good a relationship as possible between the parents to help prevent the kids from experiencing the negative fall-out. Collaborative divorce lawyers also work with experienced divorce coaches and child specialists who can provide extra help if needed.

Collaborative divorce addresses a bigger picture than just the legal issues. It helps protect emotional feelings too. There is no doubt it is less stressful than litigation. For most couples, it’s a healthier and smarter way to exit their relationship and forge new lives than going to court.

Man arrested Friday after report of road rage, weapon GARY AHUJA Tim es Reporter

A 35-year-old Langley man was taken into custody following a reported road rage incident on Friday morning.

Just before 10 a.m. on May 2, there was an incident involving two vehicles at the intersection of 24 Avenue and 192 Street in Surrey, with a man exiting out of his vehicle with what ap-

peared to be a weapon in his hand, explained Surrey RCMP Cpl. Bert Paquet.

The other driver remained in his vehicle and left the area, calling in the incident and the vehicle’s license plate number to RCMP. A short time later, RCMP were able to locate the vehicle and the suspect near a business at Langley Bypass and 202 Street,

Surprise mom with

Mother’s Day is coming up this Sunday! Why not surprise your mom with something she will truly appreciate? Rather than another knick knack or a piece of clothing, why not give her a gift certificate from Girl Friday? After all, your mom might prefer to be doing something more enriching than household chores. That’s why a gift certificate from Girl Friday is perfect for the mother in your life.

Maybe someone you know is celebrating her first Mother’s Day. Some help from Girl Friday would be very thoughtful. With a new baby and having housework to do, life for your friend has just gotten a lot busier. She would really appreciate someone looking after the chores while she focuses all of her attention on the new arrival.

In addition to gift certificates when you visit Girl

Friday’s website you’ll find “Mrs. Registry”, a gift registry service. It’s easy and convenient. Simply go to their website at www.girlfridayerrands.ca and follow the information on the Pop Up. The gift of time is something everyone will appreciate.

Girl Friday offers a full range of household help so it’s simple to combine your cleaning service with a variety of other chores or errands, as needed. You decide on the type of customized package you want and Girl Friday will provide it. “Girl Friday will do almost anything a live in housekeeper would do but without actually living in.” said Lisa.

Some of the “add on” services Girl Friday provides includes grocery shopping (with put away), pet appointment assistance and parcel pick up. They can do some small scale gardening or organize those cupboards you’ve been meaning to get to.

“As long it’s safe to do we can help but if it’s not in our area of expertise we will be happy to refer you using our tried and true recommendations," said Lisa.

Girl Friday was started by sisters Lisa and Christina Goeller. They lost both of their parents to

PRESIDENT’S REPORT

Border Crossing Upgrade Celebrated

>W

ith regards to our Long R a n g e Succession Plan, we are preparing a number of bylaw amendments for consideration by the membership to increase the Board’s effectiveness and efficiency. We are also preparing for introduction of a full-time sales position to assist with membership recruitment and engagement, as well as promotional and sponsorship opportunities. As we move forward with the Succession Plan and increase in staffing, we will also need to examine the best options for the Chamber with regards to our office facilities and potential relocation. Our early analysis of budgeting requirements indicate the need for an increase in the Annual Dues – which will be kept to a minimum requirement.

Notices of Motion and explanation of these proposals and a Call For Nominations for the 2014-2015 Board of Directors will be forwarded to the membership within the next month for vote by the membership at the 83rd Annual General Meeting scheduled to be held June 17.

We have now submitted three resolutions for vote by the membership at the British Columbia Chamber of Commerce AGM next month. In partnership with the Terrace and Kelowna Chambers of Commerce, we have revised a resolution calling for reinstatement of the business vote that we believe presents a good compromise that may be considered favourably by the provincial government. Our revised resolution addresses the issue concerning “one person – one vote” that has been a barrier to moving this issue forward with Municipal Councils and UBCM. Another resolution that we will present is

calling for return of 3-year funding for approved charitable and non-profit programs with long term programming. This is important for both our Not-For-Profit members, but also our corporate members and community at large.

Many important social programs that are vital to our communities are provided by societies and organizations that could otherwise become the responsibility of government at great cost, or become lost. Current processes are very onerous, cause significant delays in securing required funding and place many worthwhile programs in jeopardy. While we understand the need for proper stewardship of taxpayer funds, we believe there can be a compromise on a process that balances the need for stewardship with longer term funding certainty.

And finally, we will once again re-submit a resolution calling for designation and development of an east-west provincial transportation corridor on 16th Avenue. Such infrastructure would provide a much needed connector between Abbotsford Airport and Hwy. 99, direct access to Canada-US Border Crossings, address significant safety issues and provide for projected growth in the Fraser Valley Region.

Recently, we were very pleased to attend the announcement by the Honourable Steven Blaney, Federal Minister of Public Safety & Emergency Preparedness and Member of Parliament Mark Warawa concerning the re-development of the Aldergrove Border Crossing. This is an issue that we have been advocating for approximately 9 years to reverse a former decision to close the crossing to commercial vehicles. The announcement unveiled the plans for the reconstruction of the facilities to be completed in 2016 which include full commercial processing, expanded passenger lanes and a nexus lane.

THE VOICE OF BUSINESS NOTICE OF MOTION RE BYLAWS The Board of Directors recommends the following amendments to the Greater Langley Chamber of Commerce Bylaws to ensure consistency with best practices and to increase the Board’s effectiveness and efÀciency:

4. Ceasing to be a Business Member Representative Section 4.5 of the Amended Bylaws has been added to address a situation where a member of the Board is no longer the Business Member Representative of a particular Business Member.

1. Two Year Terms for Officers Section 27 of the existing by-laws from 2011 that are currently in force (the “Current Bylaws�) provided for two year terms for all of the Community Directors and the Directors-at-Large, but only one year terms for the President, 1st and 2nd Vice-Presidents, and SecretaryTreasurer. The Amended Bylaws in section 4.3 now provide for two year terms for all members of the Board.

5. Indemnification and Insurance Sections 4.15 and 4.16 of the Amended Bylaws have been added to permit the Chamber to indemnify and maintain directors and ofÀcers liability insurance.

2. Reduction of Officers Section 27 and subsection 46(b) of the Current Bylaws required two Vice-Presidents (a 1st Vice-President and a 2nd Vice-President). The Amended Bylaws have amalgamated these positions into one Vice-President in paragraph 4.1(a)(ii).

3. Community Directors The Current Bylaws provide no guidance as to the geographic jurisdictions of the four Community Directors. Subsection 1.1(h) of the Amended Bylaws deÀnes the four representative regions for the Community Directors.

6. Conflict of Interest Sections 6.1 to 6.4 of the Amended Bylaws clarify the responsibility of members of the Board to act in the best interests of the Chamber and not solely for personal Ànancial gain. The provisions do not prohibit a member of the Board from being awarded a contract for goods or services with the Chamber, they simply set out the process of disclosure and require that the Ànancially interested member of the Board not serve on the committee awarding such contract and not vote as a member of the Board to approve the same. Sections 6.5 and 6.6 of the Amended Bylaws have been added to address members of the Board declaring publically their candidacy for public ofÀce and the effect of such status on representative appointments by the Board.

MOTHER’S DAY Photo Contest Congratulations to our Winner!

Thank you to all that entered the contest & told us the most important thing your mother taught you.

My Mom taught me how to sew when I was young and encouraged me to follow my passion for creating. Today I have taken those skills and built a successful business out of it! She is a very talented seamstress and still helps me today!

The most important thing my mom taught me was to save my money. When I was 16, I took on a babysitting job earning $7.00/hour. I told my mom that as soon as I made $500, I would take myself on a shopping spree. I had fantasies of buying the latest pink hip-hop style sneakers and spending my money carelessly at my favourite teenybopper store. Well, that shopping spree never happened as my mom took me and my $500 straight to the bank where my money was invested in a mutual fund. Fast forward 11 years and several investments later, and I’m happy to say that I've never felt the need to indulge in a shopping spree of any sorts, and that my money is being wisely spent on things like tuition, rent and amazing trips!

The most important thing my Mother has taught me is that while our lives and work are serious things, it is far more important not to take oneself too seriously. Take time to have some fun, be silly, and enjoy all that life has to offer. This photo is of our oh so pretty toes after spending an afternoon getting mani-pedi’s together (first time ever for my mom) and spending time trying to figure out how we could take just one photo to share on facebook.

It was a time filled with giggles and a memory was created that I will always cherish. :)

Never give up.

My mom taught me to make the most of every moment, and have a good time in life.

How to be a strong independent woman who knows when to walk away from a situation.

My mom teaches by example how to love unconditionally and give selflessly.

We are 7 years old and our mommy is teaching us about being nice and kind. She is teaching us about helping other people if you can. We help with lots of different things like collecting shoes and blankets and warm clothing in winter. She is a very nice mommy.

Banner bantam draft year for LMHA GARY AH U J A Ti me s Spo r t s

Thousands of young kids have come up through the ranks of the Langley Minor Hockey Association, all dreaming of making it to the next level.

And on Thursday (May 1) morning, Jordan Hollett etched his name into the history books, becoming the top LMHA player selected in the Western Hockey League’s annual bantam draft.

Hollett, a six-foot-two, 180-pound goaltender was selected in the first round, 13th overall, by the Regina Pats.

The previous highest selection was Jeremy Schenderling, who went 18th overall in 2001.

Ryan Hollweg was the top pick in the entire 1999 draft, but he did not play in the LMHA as his family moved from California to Langley to pursue junior hockey.

“That is an accomplishment because there have been a lot of good players,” Hollett admitted.

“To be the top guy makes you feel good because you work hard to separate yourself from other players.”

Two former LMHA players — Jordan Hollett and James Malm —were also round was a selected and the six made for a record number in one year for the association. bit surprising.

“I didn’t think I would go quite that high, to be honest,” he said.

“It hasn’t really hit home yet, but I am really excited.”

Hollett was one of two Langley players taken in the first round as three picks later, defenceman Jarret Tyszka was taken 16th overall by the Seattle Thunderbirds.

The draft has been held every year since 1990 and it is the first time a pair of LMHA alum have both been taken in the first round.

The 15-year-old Hollett spent this past season playing at the Okanagan Hockey Academy in Penticton, posting a 23-4-0 record with six shutouts and a 1.75 goals against average.

Health Matters

Sit up straight! Shoulders back! Hold in your tummy! It’s all about posture – and good posture not only looks better but also improves your balance and reduces the likelihood of injuries and pain. Keep your weight centred over both feet, shoulders even, back & down, back “straight” (no swayback or hunching forward), abdominals tight, hips level, knees pointing straight ahead and chin parallel to the floor. There – that’s much better!

Posture is one of the considerations when strength training, contributing to good form. Other points? Tempo – make sure you aren’t swinging or using momentum to move the weight. Controlled movements. And breathe.

Don’t hold your breath… exhale on the exertion and inhale on the relaxation. Challenge your muscles with more weight as your strength improves and aim for two to three workouts per week, with at least one day of rest between.

The most common sports-related injuries? Tennis elbow, a dull pain outside of the elbow that worsens with gripping. Rotator cuff tendonitis of the shoulder causes pain when reaching up or lifting something

heavy. Runner’s/jumper’s knee where there is pain around the kneecap with flexion or stairs. Sprained ankles and Achilles tendonitis.

Your best bet is rest and BOB SANGHA seeing a physiotherapist Pharmacist, BSc to treat the injury and help prevent future ones.

What are considered the best exercises for general fitness – at any age? Swimming and aquasize are at number one as they are easy on the joints. Tai chi is good for balance and connects movement to the mind – double the value! Strength training offers many benefits; it preserves muscle mass and may even help the brain function better. And, finally, there’s walking – universally available and universally beneficial. No excuses – get moving!

May is Fitness Month. It has been said that the best prescription is exercise – and it certainly seems to promote good overall health and longevity. Our pharmacists can help you decide how to get started.

briefs Langley Gymnastics Foundation will also be in Ottawa.

Cameron Stanley, Julian Geisler and Tyler Welch are on the men’s artistic gymnastics team.

Allyson Armstrong and Lauren Van Harmelen are competing as part of the women’s artistic team.

Angel Zhong and Cathy Zhong of Coquitlam’s Omega Gymnastics Academy are also on the women’s gymnastics team.

And Kevin Naismith (Surrey Gymnastics Society) and Jonathan Osers and Kyle Machibroda-Ames — both of Abbotsford’s Twisters Gymnastics — are on the men’s artistic team.

••• A season cut short by injury did not stop Langley’s Danielle Raison from earning honourable mentions as a conference allstar.

At the time of her injury, Raison was leading the SFU Clan women’s softball team with a .354 batting average, a home run and 11 RBIs. She had started all 22 games at shortstop for the Clan.

“I’m pleased to see Danielle (Raison) recognized even though she had an injury shortened season,” said SFU coach Mike Renney.

“She was leading our team offensively and was on base and was on pace to be recognized even higher. She was a leader on and off the field, a team captain, our starting shortstop and cleanup hitter. She was dearly

Two more weekend wins helped the Langley Junior Blaze remain perfect on the season.

The U16 baseball team swept the Nanaimo Junior Pirates 14-3 and 3-1 on Saturday afternoon at Nanaimo’s Serauxmen Stadium.

The victories improve Langley to 8-0 in the B.C. Junior Premier Baseball League.

In the first game, Jake Polancic struck out nine Nanaimo batters and Jesse Unger delivered four RBIs, including a bases-clearing double.

Yi-Fan Pan also had a pair of RBIs while Broden Bydeweg had three hits and an RBI. Game two saw Markus Gregson deliver two RBIs and Aiden Mordecai had the other.

Zachary Davies struck out four over three and two-thirds innings of work, allowing one earned run, for the win.

Matthew Poirier was nearly perfect in relief, surrendering just one walk the rest of the game.

Langley is back at home on Saturday (May 10) with a doubleheader against the Vancouver Junior Cannons (2-5) at McLeod Park. The games are at noon and 2:30 p.m.

The team also host the North Shore Junior Twins (5-2) on Sunday

in a twin-bill.

First pitch is also at noon.

••• Kyle Ross continues his impressive start to the season.

The left-handed pitcher tossed his third-straight complete game shutout, improving to 3-0 as the Langley Blaze hammered the Vancouver Cannons 11-0 on May 1 at McLeod Park.

The win was the 13th straight for the U18 baseball team since they opened the B.C. Premier Baseball League season with a loss.

Ross has struck out 28 batters in 19 innings this season.

The game was shortened to five innings as the Blaze scored four in the first and fourth innings, two in the second and one in the third.

Leading the offence was Andre Pelletier, who belted a solo home run and finished with three RBIs. Connor Chorpita and Hayden Jaco each had a pair of RBIs and Dakota Curry, Mitchell Robinson and Liam Wyatt drove in one run apiece.

Langley is scheduled to host the North Delta Blue Jays (1-7) tonight (Tuesday) at McLeod Park.

First pitch is 6:30 p.m.

The Blaze had a pair of doubleheaders rained out over the weekend.

REFLECTIONS ON

The gardens of impressionist painter Claude Monet inspired ‘The French Collection’ a new exhibit of work by ar tists Susan Falk and Kristin Krimmel Sure, it may get all the press, but Paris in the springtime has nothing on autumn in the French countryside.

It’s a fact a pair of Fort Gallery artists rediscovered last September as they travelled through northern France, delighting in the region’s charms during a two-week “journey of artistic renewal and exploration.”

In that time, Langley’s Susan Falk and Maple Ridge’s Kristin Krimmel visited the haunts of the impressionists where they lived and painted — Rouen, Giverny, Le Havre, Etretat, Amiens, Pontoise and, of course, Paris.

It was a journey of both discovery and immense creativity for the women, who each pledged to create fresh new works of art on a daily basis.

“We were both very determined to do a painting a day, no matter the

weather. And paint, we did,” said Falk.

The result is The French Collection, an exhibit of paintings which opens at the Fort Gallery in Fort Langley on May 7, and promises to take visitors on a virtual journey of Giverny, where famed French impressionist Claude Monet lived and painted his celebrated garden of waterlilies While in France, the artists also saw modern works by the post-impressionists, including a three-floor exhibition in Paris, at the Grand Palais, of George Braque’s paintings, as well as a major contemporary exhibition, Réalités Nouvelles — comprised of only current abstract work — in Vincennes, a suburb of Paris. Canadians seldom get to see original impressionist works in our own country, said Krimmel. And photo illustrations in fine art books don’t convey the size,

true colours, tactile sense nor the heart of the works.

“That’s why it’s essential to see the real thing, to understand it,” the artist added.

“On this trip, we spent an average of six hours a day in museums and galleries and were privileged to see complete exhibitions of Pissaro, Braque, Eugene Boudin, Monet, plus many themed shows, with works by the most influential Impressionist painters of their era,” said Krimmel. “We came back with a wealth of documentation and imagery to work from.”

For The French Collection, Falk and Krimmel each concentrated on Monet’s gardens at Giverny, where the spirit of the artist’s time period and his home life are preserved.

LANGLEY DIRECTOR PRESENTS THE DRAWER BOY Surrey Little Theatre’s spring play, The Drawer Boy, written

by Canadian playwright, Michael Healey, and helmed by award-winning Langley director/designer June Ainsworth, runs until May 17 at the little playhouse just over the Surrey-Langley border.

The Drawer Boy — SLT’s entry into the Fraser Valley Zone Festival to be held in Chilliwack later this month — is a poignant and gently humorous look at relationships — not only between the two old, bachelor farmers who were in the Second World War together, but also with the young city boy, an actor who comes to stay for the summer to “research” farm life for a new play.

One of the farmers, Angus, was injured in the war and

“When we have questions about the script, each of us has answers, imagery, and motivations to suggest. This team has been eager to try new ideas and, if they don’t work, to try again another way.”

now has difficulty remembering things. He is cared for

by Morgan, a straight-talking, no-nonsense man, played by North Vancouver’s Barry Walker. City boy Miles (Aaron Elliott of White Rock) finds that farming is more complicated than he first thought, especially because Morgan enjoys some fun at Miles’ expense.

Morgan’s life story unravels as Miles delves into more than their farming practices. Miles, intrigued by the way Morgan retells Angus the story of their early lives together, decides to put on a play about Angus’ life, which reawakens memories for the old man.

Playing the role of Angus is Langley’s Mike Busswood, who has won 11 awards with Theatre BC for his past performances.

Artist felt the presence of Monet From Page 26

Both artists have been strongly influenced by the early 20th century painters in their own works.

“There are a number of painters that I have greatly admired throughout my painting career such a Emily Carr, Tom Thompson and Pierre Bonnard to name a few,” said Falk.

“But Claude Monet always captures my heart whenever I stand in front of one of his paintings.

“So it is no wonder to me that I chose to paint his incredible ponds and all the mystery that they entail.

“What a thrill for my own eyes to be able to search and explore those mysterious dark waters in shade and then watch the

light transition in all colours reflected.”

“I could feel the presence of Monet and absorb the atmosphere where he worked amidst his family and painter friends,” said Krimmel.

“In the magnificent gardens and waterways there is a tremendous feeling of exhilaration at the lush complexity of the plant forms.

“The shimmering shadows of the big trees and climbing roses dance on the gravel walkways, just as they did 100 years before.

“The Norman skies are full of big, fast-moving cumulus clouds. They constantly change the reflections on the lily pond and the connecting streams that Monet designed and built.

The magical effect of receding lilies and advancing clouds con-

found the sense of perspective – without a single straight line to describe it.

“That was the genius of Monet’s imagery.”

It was so special, the artists reorganized their itinerary to go back a second full day.

“Back home in my studio, when I looked at all my reference photos, it was Giverny that drew me to reconnect with my paint brush, to recreate the images and the experience that had so affected me.”

The French Collection will be on display at the Fort Gallery, 9048 Glover Rd., from May 7 to May 25.

The gallery is open from noon to 5 p.m. each Wednesday to Sunday.
