Rockin’ River leaves Mission for Merritt Rockin’ River Musicfest, the Lower Mainland’s biggest outdoor country music event, will leave Mission to head for Merritt next year. For the past six years, the annual festival has been based in Mission and has been held at Mission Raceway Park. Festival president Kenny Hess announced on Thursday that after many months of consideration and consultation with fans, industry and management officials, the growth of the festival and the limitations HESS of Mission Raceway Park have made a new venue necessary. “This is a natural choice as Merritt is not only the home of a very well-established festival site and the home of the Canadian Country Music Hall of Fame, it also known as the country music capital of Canada and is located right in the heart of B.C.” Hess explained that Merritt has a wellestablished festival ground, with almost unlimited camping facilities and permanent structures designed to service the needs of thousands of patrons. The move will also allow organizers to change the dates of the show to the B.C.

New campaign for Holmberg House Goal to raise $1.2 million by end of year
The Holmberg House Matching Funds Challenge has been launched in Abbotsford. The campaign will raise funds for the second phase of construction of the Abbotsford Hospice Society’s (AHS) Holmberg House adult hospice. The facility is under construction on the Campus of Care on Marshall Road next to Abbotsford Regional Hospital. Funded by Dave and Lee Holmberg – who have already donated $1 million to Holmberg House – the challenge will match up to $500,000 in donations between Oct. 7 and Dec. 25. The campaign was launched following an evening at the Holmbergs’ residence, where a series of powerful stories was shared with those in attendance. Tens of thousands of dollars have already been donated, and AHS board chair David Turchen said there is a “renewed excitement” for making hospice care a reality in Abbotsford. AHS still needs to raise another $4.3 million to complete the facility. Turchen said although there have been some challenges in the past, the project has “turned a corner.” “There is new leadership, a renewed vision, an end goal that is well defined, and an excitement and positivity in the
An artist’s rendering of Abbotsford Hospice Society’s Holmberg House. community that is inspiring,” he said. The goal is to raise $1.2 million before the end of the year “to ensure the building reaches a clean lockup,” Turchen added. Campaign co-chair Vijay Manuel said the matching campaign is the first in a series of new AHS initiatives, with details to be revealed at a later date. “It is our mortality that unites us, which is why the completion of Holmberg House is something that all of us should get behind,” he said.
The facility will provide services and support for people 19 and older who are in the last stages of their life, as well as to their loved ones. For more information or to make a donation, call 604-852-2456 or visit abbotsfordhospice.org/donate. Donations can also be made on the Black Press crowd-funding site BlackPress4Good, where every donation made to Holmberg House prior to Nov. 15 will be matched.

Charges possible after Yale Road roll-over Three women hospitalized Vikki HOPES Abbotsford News

David Lovely was arrested earlier this year following a robbery at TD Canada Trust.
Vikki HOPES
Bank robber sentenced
Abbotsford News
A man who robbed a local bank in May was sentenced on Wednesday in Abbotsford provincial court to a three-year jail term. David Ryan Lovely, 37, pleaded guilty to one count of robbery. Two other counts of robbery were stayed. Lovely walked into the TD Canada Trust bank at South Fraser Way and
Trethewey Street on May 25 at about 4 p.m. and gave both verbal and written commands for cash. Once he left the bank, he headed east along South Fraser Way. Police believe he left some personal items at a nearby business before entering the bank and had gone to retrieve them. When police arrived, witnesses informed them of Lovely’s whereabouts.
THE SBBC AWARDS. SMALL BUSINESS BC AWA R D S
Injured bear put down A bear that was critically injured after being hit by a car Saturday night in Abbotsford had to be put down by Abbotsford Police. The collision took place at about 8:30 p.m. north of Harris Road on Highway 11 (the Abbotsford-Mission Highway). A 30-year-old woman, with her one-year-old baby, was travelling north in a GMC SUV when the bear ran onto the busy highway.

Lovely refused police commands to surrender and tried to escape into a bush area along South Fraser Way. Police said he reached into his pockets and back of his pants, despite orders to keep his hands in plain view. The two officers who were first on the scene had only their pistols as weapons, but they did not fire at Lovely. A third officer who arrived on the scene used a beanbag gun to fire five rounds that subdued Lovely. At the time of his arrest, he had more than 10 prior convictions for a range of offences, including robbery, break and enter, and assault causing bodily harm.
A 24-year-old woman faces possible impaired driving charges after a vehicle rollover early Saturday morning. Const. Ian MacDonald said the woman was travelling east in a Pontiac Sunfire with three other women – ages 18, 24 and 32 – on Old Yale Road near Westside Place just after 1 a.m. when she lost control of the vehicle in a curve. The women all had to be
extricated from the vehicle by members of Abbotsford Fire Rescue Service. They were all taken to hospital for the treatment of nonlife-threatening injuries. MacDonald said a bottle of wine, empty beer cans and a white substance – believed to be cocaine – were found in the vehicle. He said the investigation is continuing, but police are recommending a charge of impaired driving.
The animal struck the vehicle with such force that it cracked the vehicle’s radiator, smashed the bumper and set off all the air bags. The mom and her baby were not seriously injured, but the bear was found in critical condition in a grass area at the side of the road. Const. Ian MacDonald said the animal appeared to have a couple of broken legs, and police made the decision at the scene to put it down.

Agriculture land misused: soil scientist Abbotsford News
agricultural advisory committee, businesses, and agricultural and environmental experts. He said there should be several priorities for the task force, including making sure the city is complying with its own regulations, addressing business that the city has contracts with, and non-farm uses that harm the environment. The benefits would be greater efficiency; streamlining tasks for Abbotsford and ALC staff; protecting farmland, food security and the environment; and transparency. Coun. Bill MacGregor asked Paul whether the task force work could be done by the agricultural advisory committee. Paul said it is a great place to start. Coun. Henry Braun said he has voiced similar concerns in the past that the city is not applying bylaws consistently across the board, saying Paul raised some issues that should be looked at. Transform Compost Systems was a proponent for a composting facility at 5050 Gladwin Rd. That project was not realized and the site is now home to Net Zero Waste Abbotsford Composting Facility.

Time for truth in B.C. treaty talks Tom
Fletcher
B.C. Views VICTORIA – Three years ago, longtime chief and band administrator Sophie Pierre sought an extension of her term leading the B.C. Treaty Commission and gave a warning. The federal and provincial government should start taking this long and costly effort seriously or “shut ’er down.” Last week Pierre wound up her sixth and final year as chief commissioner on a slightly more hopeful note. This year, the Tla’amin Nation in the Powell River area and the Yale First Nation in the Fraser Canyon had their treaties proclaimed by Ottawa. They join the Maa-nulth First Nations on Vancouver Island and the Tsawwassen First Nation in leaving behind the Indian Act and the courts to get on with self-government. Tsawwassen in par-
ticular has moved ahead aggressively. Its shopping centre development near the ferry terminal is one of the largest commercial projects in the province right now. All of these treaties were negotiated despite multiple overlapping territorial claims around them, and similar progress has been made with the Tsimshian First Nations on the North Coast and elsewhere. The need for aboriginal people to work out their overlapping claim issues between themselves was the focus of the commission’s 22nd annual report. In it, former chief commissioners Miles Richardson of the Haida Nation and Steven Point of the Sto:lo Nation added their influential voices, urging aboriginal communities to consider them shared territories, rather than clinging to ancient tribal rivalries. Another hopeful sign is that after seven years of commissions and studies, the federal government has finally given its negotiators a mandate to negotiate fisheries. This is the main reason why the Tla’amin waited five long years for Ottawa’s blessing after their
treaty had been hammered out. This year’s landmark decision of the Supreme Court of Canada, recognizing Tsilhqot’in Nation title in the remote Nemiah Valley, has also got the attention of Victoria and Ottawa. Pierre noted the “flurry of activity” by Premier Christy Clark in seeking reconciliation, which will culminate this month with a formal apology for the hanging of Tsilhqot’in chiefs 150 years ago. Pierre said this court ruling “should destroy any lingering thoughts that this issue is not of the utmost importance, and provide the necessary investment, both financial and time commitment, to reach satisfactory conclusions.” That’s the good news for B.C.’s thorniest historical problem, the lack of treaties across most of the province. It’s also becoming clearer that the Tsilhqot’in ruling is unique. It’s unlikely to be repeated by most other First Nations, even if they are willing and able to spend the years and millions to enrich lawyers in pursuit of it. Here’s the bad news. As of this year, the B.C. Treaty Commission has paid out $627 million to First Nations to
support treaty negotiations. Most of that is in the form of loans, which are to be repaid out of the cash settlements that Ottawa contributes to settle modern treaties. Pierre acknowledges that some communities are close to completing treaties, but their debt has climbed to near what Ottawa is offering. This would leave them free but broke. Others are just “spinning their wheels” with no real hope of achieving a treaty, Pierre said. The commission is calling for an “exit strategy” for these communities, starting with loan forgiveness that would allow them to pursue economic activity. There are First Nations, Westbank and Osoyoos prominent among them, which are thriving without treaties. Haida and Klahoose have developed successful forest products businesses as they move toward self-government. Federal and provincial governments must recognize the successes, and the failures.

Better way needed I find it incredible how naive and short-sighted we are when it comes to dealing with the mentally ill and dejected members of our society.  Who would ever believe that more money is spent on every member of our homeless than the average productive tax-paying citizen earns every year. The City of Vancouver spends $360 million per year on its homeless population. There are 436 registered homeless people in Vancouver. That works out to $761,000 per homeless person per year. Not knowing what amount is spent in Abbotsford, I can only hope that it’s considerably less, but assume that it is probably astronomical as well. Wouldn’t it make more sense, and do more good, to actually take this problem seriously, and treat each and every one of them like they were a member of our own families? Surely, we wouldn’t throw chicken manure on our own drug-addicted children’s campsites, if we had this incredible amount ($761,000/year per person) of resource to look after them properly. Why don’t we make it illegal to live homeless within the boundaries of any city or municipality in the province? Then, if those who need help refused it, we could force it upon them for their own well-being. For $360 million per year, there would be enough resources to fund the entire province, boost the low-income housing market and develop therapy programs for those who desperately need it. To continue on this path of dejection and waste is nothing less than criminal, and those responsible for its continuance should be held accountable. Art Green

Latham seeks trustee seat
Community leader, arts advocate, and retired educator Freddy Latham is running for trustee on the Abbotsford board of education on Nov. 15. She is active in the Abbotsford community as the artistic director of Abbotsford Children’s Theatre, which she founded in the mid 1980s. As well, Latham is serving her second year as chair of the parks, recreation and culture commission. She has been on LATHAM the commission as a community member for the past five years. A recipient of the Queen’s Jubilee Medal in 2012 for her work with children and youth, Latham also received the Paul Harris Service Award (Rotary Club) in 2004 and 2005. In 2008, she was awarded the Order of Abbotsford.
Latham said serving on the school board is another way to give back to the community. “Those engaged in any role in public education are going to have to work harder to keep current budgets and look at ways to develop more partnerships for special programs to assist in all aspects of a child’s education.” Latham is committed to giving the time needed to support and advocate for public education and all of its partners. She said class size and composition will continue to be the main issue for teachers and while boards continue to find ways to offer special readiness programs for young children, “there is disparity in the level of competencies of students entering the school system.” She said with limited funding, solutions will only happen with better collaboration among the school district, teachers and parents, as well as lobbying the provincial government for additional funding support.

YOU and the LAW STRANGE INJURY NETS LARGE PAYMENTS
You probably do a lot of driving for work or pleasure. No doubt you try to be careful. But sometimes that’s not enough – through no fault of yours you may get hurt in a car accident. A recent case shows that if that happens, the courts will likely have your back.
of balance (regulated by the inner ear), which we normally take for granted.
In Jeffrey’s case, they led to him suffering a sense of dizziness, of disequilibrium. He felt like he was moving forward when he wasn’t, or having the floor drop out from below him. An episode of acute vertigo (a spinning sensation) left him afraid that this would occur again. His problems were worse when he moved his neck (due to the neck injury). He clearly had sustained a strange injury, hard to put into words, but confirmed by medical experts and tests. Stanley T. Cope
Jeffrey, 46, was driving to Vancouver one winter day. He had to make a highway stop in Manning Park due to a car crash in front. The at-fault driver had stopped his tractor-trailer on a hill above Jeffrey and got out, leaving his vehicle driverless. Unfortunately, the tractor-trailer slid down the hill and struck a number of vehicles below, including the car Jeffrey was sitting in.
Though damaged, Jeffrey’s car was still drivable (it was ultimately written off as a total loss). Jeffrey initially continued on after the collision, but then decided to turn around and drive back home as he felt unwell due to the trauma and emotional distress from the collision. He made it as far as Princeton, got temporary car repairs done there the next day, reported the accident to the police, then got himself home to Naramata. At the trial in late 2013, the defendants admitted fault, so the court had to decide what compensation payments were fair. Apart from things like past income losses and lost earning ability in the future, the court dealt with Jeffrey’s claim for “pain and suffering” damages. This element is always difficult to gauge in terms of money, which is a poor substitute for the loss of enjoyment of life anyway.
Individually and together, his neck and vestibular injuries caused physical and psychological damage – they led to ongoing fear of injury from rapid movement, migraine headaches, anxiety, fear of driving and other travel, and sleeplessness. Before this accident, Jeffrey was a vital and energetic man with lots of enthusiasm for life. Afterwards, his life became far more one-dimensional, with the strain of work and the ongoing toll of his injuries leaving him with little energy for anything else. In the end, the court decided that, in addition to substantial compensation for his past income losses and lost future earning ability, $120,000 was a fair “pain and suffering” payment for Jeffrey. If you’ve been hurt in a car crash, see your lawyer as soon as possible afterwards to protect your rights.
Here, Jeffrey suffered serious and chronic injuries, which sapped his energy and were likely to persist. Most serious were the injuries to his neck and his “vestibular” injuries.

Residents will get to hear from candidates at two events next week.
A group of Abbotsford non-profit organizations will host a council townhall and a mayoral debate on Tuesday, Oct. 21 and Thursday, Oct. 23, before the upcoming civic election on Nov. 15. O r g a n i z e d by Abbotsford Community Services, the United Way of the Fraser Valley, the Abbotsford C o m m u n i t y Foundation, the Abbotsford Arts Council, and the Fraser Valley Conservancy, the event will focus on three key areas: arts and culture, the environment, and social services. The townhall evening will follow a similar format to a public hearing, with people queuing to ask questions. At the mayoral debate, questions will be prepared by the organizing committee. Both events will be held at the Matsqui Centennial Auditorium (32315 South Fraser Way) with doors opening at 6:30 p.m. and proceedings beginning at 7 p.m. Both sessions will end at approximately 9:30 p.m.

Abbotsford Homeowners Want to Know The Value of Their Home, But Are Afraid to Ask! Abbotsford – A hassle-free service allows homeowners to receive up to date real estate market information speciÀc to their home without having to meet with a real estate agent. Some homeowners are reluctant to meet with a realtor as they may only be in the early stages of planning a move or may not yet know if they will move. “Should we sell or stay? How much equity do we actually have?” Often these questions cannot be answered without knowing the current value of your home. Determining the value of your home is based largely on comparing your home to similar homes that have recently sold. This comparative approach should consider several factors – features of each home, location, neighbourhood, length of time on the market, etc. However, access to this type of information is generally re-
served for the real estate agents and their clients. This free service provides each homeowner with a Real Estate Market Update speciÀc to their property. This update includes detailed sales information of similar homes that have recently sold within the homeowner’s area, as well as the current listings. This data includes a photograph of each home, asking prices and selling prices, the number of days on the market, price reductions and a complete description of each home. To have a free Market Update sent to you, specially tailored for your home, call this 24 hour free recorded message at 1-800-251-4944, enter extension #4811. This hassle free, no obligation service is provided by Rod Poole of Landmark Realty Corp. You may also call Rod’s ofÀce directly at 604-309-6068.

The Gallery 7 Theatre and Performing Arts Society is receiving $22,000 in community gaming grants from the province. Gallery 7 is now entering its 24th season of offering entertaining theatre that explores the spiritual, social and relational aspects of the human experience. The theatre offers the community a full season of productions, guest performances and a summer theatre camp programs for children and teens. This season, the theatre will produce four mainstage productions including William Golding’s Lord of the Flies in November, William Nicholson’s Shadowlands in January, the Tony Award-winning musical Fiddler on the Roof in March and the compelling 110 Stories in May. The season will also feature guest performing artists Panic Squad and Friends in October, and Christmas Presence in the Valley this December. “We are very grateful for this grant,” said executive/artistic director Ken Hildebrandt. “It is crucial to helping us provide the community quality arts programming that stirs the heart, challenges the mind and elevates the soul, while keeping theatre affordable and accessible for the entire community.” “It is important to support the arts, especially at the local level,” said Abbotsford West MLA Mike de Jong. “It provides the opportunity to showcase local talent and nurture creativity right here in our own community.” These grants have been awarded under the arts and culture category of the community gaming grant program, which allows non-profit organizations to apply for provincial gaming revenues from the province.

Brain injury awareness walk
Abbotsford’s Mark Ferreira hopes to walk 1,000 km across B.C. to raise awareness of traumatic brain injuries.
Mark Ferreira walking across B.C.
The Abbotsford Centre, managed by Global Spectrum, has been ranked Western Canada’s number one arena for venues between 5,001 to 10,000 capacity, according to Venues Today, a publication covering arenas, stadiums and convention centres. According to the publication, the Abbotsford Centre drew 64,598 guests to 38 different events, grossing $2,297,282 during a period which featured the venue’s highest attended event, tobyMac on Feb. 21, and other soldout shows including Florida Georgia Line and local rockers Hedley. The Abbotsford Centre was named number two in Canada in the same category as the Global S p e c t r u m - m a n ag e d General Motors Centre in Oshawa, Ont. led the category. Rankings are based solely on ticket sales to concerts and family shows for the period of July 1, 2013 through June 30, 2014 and do not include ticket sales to sporting events.
is a bigger challenge – 10,000 ‘likes’ or 1,000 km – because neither is a small undertaking. I haven’t walked farther than my letter box
in years,” he laughs. “Irrespective, the goal is to make this a success, make it happen and ultimately walk for the cause.”

An Abbotsford man is hoping to raise awareness of traumatic brain injuries (TBI) and their prevention. Mark Ferreira has created a Facebook page called “Brainbow – T.B.I. Awareness Challenge” and hopes to walk 1,000 km across B.C. for the cause. The issue is personal for Ferreira. Eight years ago, he was in a serious motorcycle crash that left him in a coma for seven weeks. “I awoke but couldn’t walk, talk, read, write. It’s been a long hard road, but my recovery has been amazing,” he said. Ferreira plans to walk 1,000 km east to west across the province to raise funds and aware-

Singer/songwriter performs this Saturday The E nv i s i o n Financial Coffee House Concert Series present Patrick Jolicoeur on Saturday, Oct. 18 at SippChai Cafe (31205 Maclure Rd.). The concert takes place from 7:30 to 9:30 p.m. Jolicoeur is a young singer/songwriter from Abbotsford. As a nine-year-old, he wrote his first songs and never stopped. He continues to write and perform his solo work, combining the vulnerable emotion of past jazz lyricists with the soundscape of acoustic folk rock. His first acoustic record “Disconnected – the acoustic sessions” is a nine-song collection that ranges from upbeat light-hearted pseudo-country to alternative-rock ballads on the human condition to laid-back percussive ocean-side love songs.

Pilots unsure at the helm
JOHN MORROW Abbotsford News
The Abbotsford Pilots fell 3-0 to the Richmond Sockeyes on Friday to end their three-game winning streak.
The Abbotsford Pilots’ early season struggles continued last weekend as they dropped a pair of games, managing only a single goal in the process. After falling to the Pacific Junior Hockey League-leading Richmond Sockeyes 3-0 Friday at the MSA Arena, the Pilots were blown out 7-1 by the previously winless Port Moody Panthers. Abbotsford had entered the weekend with
ABBOTSFORD
a three-game winning streak. The Pilots were outshot 39-25 by Richmond, but didn’t fall behind until the Sockeyes scored five minutes into the second period on the power play. The visitors would extend their lead two minutes later, and seal the game in the third period with another power play marker. The next night, in Port Moody, saw the game approach the halfway mark before the flood
gates opened and the Panthers began finding the net. After Derian White opened the scoring at the eight minute mark of the second period, the Panthers would tally two more power play goals in quick succession before going up by four on Adam Rota’s second of three goals on the night. The Panthers added three more tallies in the third, broken up only by a Mitchell Plevy power
play goal. The lopsided victory was the first of the year for the Panthers, who had managed only a single overtime loss through their previous 10 games. The Pilots, meanwhile, sit third in the Harold Brittain Conference, with a record of 4-5-01. They trail the conference-leading Langley Knights by just three points despite having scored the fewest goals of any team.

They call him ‘Bolt’
Abbotsford News
Josh “Bolt” Carsience doesn’t remember how he placed in his first cross country race, two years ago as part of the Lafarge Grand Prix Series. It might have been fifth, it was top ten for sure, but the important thing is that it wasn’t first. “First place, that’s what I’m looking for,” he says, and the way he runs proves it. Josh is a student at MEI Middle School in Abbotsford, as well as this year’s Lafarge Grand Prix Grade 6 boys champion. He won all four Grand Prix events this season, beating his closest competition by at least five seconds every time. The course is a little
more than a mile long over trail and grass, and Carsience’s fastest time was 6:11.07. At 11 years old, Josh is running a six-minute mile. Josh and his mother Monica keep a scrapbook of all the ribbons and medals he’s won over the two years he’s been running competitively, and already the book is becoming impressively full. Whether it’s a 100-metre sprint, 800-metre dash, or a cross-country run, Josh has tried it, and often won the first-place ribbon. The book is evidence of the passion Josh brings to his sport, a passion that extends beyond simple competition. Josh loves running because it helps in “getting my feelings Continued on A27

out. If I was angry I would run really hard and fast. If I was happy I’d run skippy-like. I was always running.” Lately Josh has been using his speed to make a little money on the side by delivering newspapers for the Abbotsford News. Monica carries the bundles of papers in the family van, while Josh runs from door-todoor trying to finish his 74-house route in record time. His personal best so far is 16 minutes and three seconds, but Josh is sure that he can do better. He remembers the day his mom secretly timed him, congratulating him afterwards for his speed. “She said ‘Wow, you can run it in 23 minutes!’ Josh reminisces. “And I’m like ‘I can only run it that fast? We’ll see what happens next time!’” They’re a veteran team now, working together to shave seconds off their record while preparing Josh for his next race. Josh admits that without his mother, he probably wouldn’t have persevered with the paper route, and Monica is proud of both her son and his hard work. “It’s a real joy to watch him and partner with him in that,” she says. “We pray for him, pray for his future, and what he’s going to do.” Josh runs for the Abbotsford Valley Royals, as well as in a club organized by one of his teachers, but the race he really wants to run, if he got the chance, is a bit of a surprise. When asked whom he most wants to race, out of anybody in the world, Josh didn’t even need time to think about it. “Probably Ben,” he said. Ben who? “He whipped my butt on the first Lafarge Grand Prix [in Grade 4], and then last year he whipped my butt again coming in first, first, first, first, while I came in second, second, third, second,” Josh explains. And second just doesn’t feel right for a boy nicknamed “Bolt”.

that blazed to a CCAA national championship in 2012-2013. With six new roster players, and others (such as setterturned-libero Nicole Blackford) switching positions on the court, the Cascades are covered in question marks. The CBC women have lost much of their old guard as well with the departure of April Vandraager, Sadie Ball, and Anna Cupido. Now led by 2013-14 PacWest Rookie of the Year Jodi Enns, the Bearcats are a different squad with a different core than last season. Both teams enjoyed deep post-seasons two years ago, followed by disappointing finishes in the last campaign, and both are looking to start this season off right with a couple of wins against their cross-town rivals. The Cascades men have struggled in recent years, missing the playoffs last season for the first time since 2006. Hoping to resurrect the old magic is new coach Kyle Donen,
who has assembled a collection of fresh recruits and returning alumni to march in his first PacWest campaign. The Cascades went 8-16 last season, and are returning Josh Togeretz, Robert Koenig, and Adam Chaplin to the ranks. The Bearcats achieved their best PacWest result ever in 2014 with a 16-8 record that catapulted them to a first place finish in the league and a fourth place finish at the national championship. While CBC is still a solid squad, they’ve lost starters Jeremy Lieuwen, Will Quiring, and setter Jason Warkentin, who undeniably formed the heart of the team. Third year coach Phil Wiens is hoping to fill the gaps with new recruits Josh Goosen, Mitchell Erickson, and Abbotsford native Riley Wall. The teams will play at 6 p.m. (women) and 8 p.m. (men) at UFV on Friday and at CBC on Saturday evening.

‘Sandpiper Sanitarium’ opens for three days As Halloween approaches, ghoulish decorations are being mounted on front lawns, costumes are being carefully chosen and candy is accumulating in cupboards.
tour the Canuck Place Children’s Hospice that will soon open its doors in Abbotsford.
For Courtney Hogarth-Trafford and her family, however, the big night means a chance to both scare and care.
“After seeing what they do, and how much they care, it now goes far beyond just a charity to us,” she says. “We honestly left feeling that we wished to win the lottery to help them out more than we are.”
Plans include preparing their property on Sandpiper Drive for their upcoming “Vampires Through the Ages” haunted house featuring an outdoor graveyard, a “nice path” for the little ones, and a “naughty path” for the parents.
With the help of neighbours Andy and Ruth Langton, who are building a massive haunted castle onto the garage, and the generous donations by local businesses towards the final tally, this year may be the start of a new tradition.
“The vampire theme organ music will set the scene upon entering, and coffins and candlelight will be aplenty,” says Hogarth-Trafford. “All volunteers will be dressed as everything from Bram Stoker’s Dracula to Edward Cullen.”
The new costume and prop shop Halloween Alley on Marshall Road has agreed to donate 10 per cent of all receipts to the cause, on behalf of whoever mentions the Canuck Place Haunted House at the till.
But the family isn’t just upping the ante on costumes and scare tactics; this is also the first year they are raising money for charity.
Opening night is scheduled for Thursday, Oct. 30, with Tim Hortons giving out free hot chocolate and Timbits.
“We have decided to make Canuck Place our choice charity as everyone involved are parents, and we are big Canucks fans and always see the telethon every year,” says Hogarth-Trafford. “Also, we are all fortunate to have healthy children, but some families in B.C. are not so lucky.”
For info about how to donate or volunteer, join the Facebook page “Haunted House Sandpiper Drive Abbotsford.”

Wrap-Up THIS FALL
KNIT CARDI’S A MUST-HAVE THIS SEASON! Fall has officially arrived and that means some chilly days ahead, but how to stay warm in style? This season’s range of cardigans, wraps and long sweaters offers plenty of choices for everyone. Because many of these outer layers are thick and textured, be careful of what you wear as your base layers. Too much draping can add bulk, making you look bigger than you are, so choose thinner, light-weight fabrics for what goes on your body first. Also, pay attention to what you’re wearing on your bottom half. Again, avoid bulk, choosing perhaps a pencil skirt or leggings to balance out a bulkier top.

Another option is to belt the cardigan or wrap – depending on how thick it is – to cinch in the waist for a curvier silhouette.

Foods that are good for your skin We have all spent more time than we’d like to admit soaking up the sun, indulged in an extra piece of chocolate cake and, on an occasion or two, forgone the recommended 8 hours of sleep. Between the damage we have self-inflicted upon ourselves and the challenges we face against pollution, chemically-enhanced food and aging, keeping your skin looking its best is an uphill battle. Luckily, there are a few foods you can incorporate into your diet that will actually repair some of the damage your skin has encountered over the years.

Artichokes
Red grapes have been shown to treat psoriasis and eczema.
Regular consumption of these woody, fibrous vegetables can lead to healthier skin and improved skin luminosity.

The Farmer and the Foodie A startling fact recently shared with me is that today’s youth is the first generation predicted to have a shorter life expectancy than their parents. Childhood obesity, early onset diabetes, lack of exercise and processed foods all play a part in this grim statistic. I have no data to back this up, but my personal feeling is that one of the biggest contributors to the growing poor health of our youth is their lack of basic cooking skills, and I mourn the loss of making this essential life skill a mandatory high school course. Everyone must eat to survive, and therefore everyone should be taught how to cook healthy food rather than rely on the prepared food and restaurant industry to fuel the bodies and brains of our future
leaders. However I’m encouraged by the growing trend of a few influential TV chefs who are moving away from showcasing gourmet restaurant meals to teaching easier, hearty home cooking that anyone with a few basic skills can master. Jamie Oliver is one of my favorites, and the ease and cheekiness with which he “bangs together” a knockout meal is always a joy to watch. The tray bake recipe featured is similar to something he’d throw into his wood fired backyard oven - simple, hearty ingredients, easily prepared, and the end result is a deli- cious and healthy home cooked meal even a rookie cook EXP OUR LORE can master.

MYTH: Not everyone needs a flu shot.
DR. JACQUES WEST
MEDIMAX MEDICAL CENTERS
It is important to be vaccinated against the flu each fall. This is especially true for the elderly and young children (6-23 months) but most people benefit. People with diseases that compromise the immune system, health workers, and those with chronic heart and lung diseases are especially prone to catching the flu, and should also make sure to get a vaccine yearly. The vaccine is effective for four to six months and changes every year. The flu spreads through droplets, a cough into the air by an infected person and absorbed through the mouth, nose and surface of the eyes. You can catch the flu by being up to two meters away from a patient or person with the flu and also by touching contaminated areas ie: cell phones, keyboards, hands rails, escalators, etc.
TRUTH: The centers for disease control and prevention recommends inoculation for everyone six months or older, including pregnant women. That protects them plus their new born during the first six months of life. MYTH: I don’t need the flu shot. I have never had a flu shot.

possibly make a difference.”
On the morning after a violent storm, the residents of a seaside village awoke to find their beach covered with hundreds of dying starfish which had washed ashore.
The little girl looked up at the old man, smiled and bent down to pick another starfish. As she threw it back into the sea, she replied, “I made a huge difference to that one!” - Author Unknown
As the community gathered at the end of the beach, they spoke in hushed tones about the great sadness of the disaster. Suddenly, a young girl ran towards the beach and began to pick up the starfish one at a time, throwing them back into the water.
THE STARFISH PACK PROGRAM STORY
A village elder walked towards the young girl and kindly said, “Child, there are hundreds of starfish on this beach and this must be happening on other beaches up and down the coast. You must understand that you alone can’t
At the outset of the 2013-2014 school year, the Abbotsford Rotary Club met with the Abbotsford School District to determine the scope of need and the priority order of schools. It was determined that nearly 400 elementary school children throughout Abbotsford’s public schools depends on either an inschool breakfast and/or lunch program as their sole source of nutrition during a normal school day.

estimate indicated that over 300 of those students were also going completely without nutritional meals of any kind over a normal two day weekend. Working with the Abbotsford Food Bank, corporate partners, non-profit groups, faith groups and individuals, the program called “Abbotsford Rotary Starfish Pack Program” expanded from the original single school pilot project of ten backpacks to the current level of 13 schools serving 195 students and their families. At the beginning of the 2014-2015 school year, we have renamed our program the “Starfish Pack”, with hopes to exceed the previous number of weekly backpacks. Additional corporate and personal sponsorships are necessary to allow our community partners and volunteers to
continue to make a real difference each week in the lives of local school children and their families.

Here are a 3 tips to help you incorporate this trend without investing in a major reno. 1. Don’t be afraid to mix and match different metals, just be sure to feature one and use the others as smaller accents. 2. Start small. A few key accessories can brighten a room and add a little sparkle without changing the entire dynamic of the space. 3. Metals attacted attention, so be sure to spread out your pieces throughout the room so that your space remains balanced.

the four or six-cylinder variants, no rattles, bangs or buzzing were heard. I actually couldn’t believe my ears as to how serene the cabin was. I guess the triple door seals are doing their job and doing it well. The transmission had a smoothness to it and the 8-inch touchscreen featuring Text Messaging Alerts and Siri Eyes Free are a bonus. If you’re just hauling yourself, or a pair of jet skis around back, the GMC Canyon and Chevrolet Colorado can do the job. And they do it very well. Pricing for the Chevrolet Colorado starts at an MSRP of $19,900 for the four-cylinder with the extended cab. The GMC Canyon has a starting MSRP of $20,600 (both exclude a destination charge of $1,695). Visit www.gm.ca for more information Alexandra.straub@drivewaybc.ca

With the tailgate down, the 6-foot bed allows hauling of 8-foot-long items. Even though both trucks are built on GM’s Global mid-size truck platform, they are targeted at two different buyers.

Popular Camry undergoes major update by Zack Spencer
The launch for the heavily updated Toyota Camry took place here in the heart of NASCAR country. Along the drive route, there were several NASCAR stops, one at the Hall of Fame, and another at Joe Gibbs Racing and a third at the Charlotte Motor Speedway. This was all to emphasize just how American the Camry has become. The chief engineer of the 2015 Camry is from
Michigan, not Japan, as was the case with the rest of the crew that updated over 2000 parts on this latest sedan. The car is Toyota’s cornerstone in the United States, thanks in part to the association the brand and the car has with the immensely popular NASCAR series and the long reputation it has for reliability and value. It is the most popular passenger car in North America and number one in the United States. However, that is not the case
in Canada, where it lies third in the Toyota lineup behind the Corolla and RAV4. Looks When a car is typically refreshed, the designers add a new front bumper, grille headlights and rear taillights and call it a day. Not the case here, the 2015 Toyota Camry has all-new sheet metal, providing a sleeker and more eye-catching design. The wheelbase remains the same length but the track, side-toside has been widened for
more stability. The overall length is only slightly longer, in the nose, to help achieve the more polished look. The interesting thing is this new more youthful design actually makes the car look smaller, mostly due to the less slab-sided look used in the previous car and the tightly wrapped lines and shapes. This is now a very nice looking car but from about fifty paces the new Camry looks very similar to the new Corolla, which was refreshed

navigated around the oval at speeds over 200 km/h. No fuss, no problem. Not something anyone in a road-going Camry will experience but a good demonstration. Verdict What haven’t been updated are the engine and transmission choices. The same 178hp 2.5L 4-cylinder with a 6-speed automatic does duty along with an optional 3.5L V6 putting out 268hp. Yes, this is known equipment and these engines have a proven record but with Honda and other providing direct injection engines and new slick transmissions, it might be safe to go with “tried and true” but at some point these engines will require upgrades or replacements. As it stands, this is much more than a regular mid-cycle facelift. The 2015 Camry looks much better, drives with more confidence and has a pleasant interior. zack.spencer@drivewaybc.ca The Lowdown Power: 2.5L 187hp 4-cylinder or 3.5L V6 with 268hp Fill-up: 9.7L/6.9L/100km (city/highway) Sticker price: $23,850$34,550

PERSONALIZED CARE
last year and is selling very well. There is a new trim level in the Camry lineup, the XSE, sportier looking trim that enabled Toyota to lower the price of the, still sporty, SE trim by $2,000 to $24,990. In addition the SE trim has been added to the Hybrid model, enabling buyers of that efficient car to also enjoy a more distinctive design. Inside Inside, the refresh focuses more on ease of use and refined materials. The top of the dash is the only carry-over part, which is still a soft touch material with French stitching. What has been added is faux suede on the doors with the ability to get two-tone seats in the Camry, also with faux suede, but the updated seats are only in the new XSE trim. The centre stack now has bigger buttons and rotary dials for ease of use, a welcome update for older buyers. To appeal to younger intenders, the Camry has the latest connectivity and on the top XLE models a wireless charging system in the centre cubby
but the phone either needs a special sleeve or integrated wireless charging technology. Plus, there is a new screen between the speedo and tachometer for a quick reference of the radio, navigation or phone calls. Drive Not just happy to make a more appealing looking car, the engineers also went about improving the ride, handling and noise inside the car. The track of the wheels has been widened and the lower end models also get wider wheels for improved feedback but the biggest change is to the steering feel. The Camry is equipped with electric power steering and these systems have been notorious for poor feedback to the driver. This new 2015 Camry is a big step foreword. Straight-line stability has been improved and the car, with a more rigid platform and slightly stiffer springs and shocks, is now sending good feedback to the driver. To highlight this, a stock off-the-showroom 2015 Camry, with regular tires was used at the Charlotte Motor Speedway for hot laps. With a pro NASCAR driver at the wheel, this new sedan easily

Remebering the ‘70s
quite decent, with the car solidly outperforming cars like the MGB GT and the carbureted BMW 2002. • 1970-78 Mazda RX-2 – The RX-2 was Mazda’s first attempt at selling a rotary powered car in large volumes. It was an attractive little thing that did without so many of the odd styling gimmicks employed by Japanese cars of the day. The Rotary was powerful and torquey and could surprise its share of V-8 powered Detroit iron at a stop light, but at the end of the day, the rotary was as thirsty as a Detroit V-8. • 1973-75 Pontiac Grand Am Colonnade coupe – The first car to carry the Grand Am name (which was an amalgam of Grand Prix and Trans Am) was a big, thirsty, traditional American personal luxury car with a few Euro touches in the seating department and in the real wood interior accents. It also had a soft Enduro nose that gave it a unique and sporty look compared to its more traditional A-body cousins, the Buick Century and Olds Cutlass Supreme. The ’73 model was the swan song of real horsepower with 400 and 455 engines available that both made well over 200hp. • 1981-83 AMC Eagle SX/4 – The Eagle SX/4 was based on the AMC Spirit, which was essentially a masterfully restyled Gremlin. And while the Audi Quattro coupé generally gets all the credit for marrying all-wheel drive to a two-door car with sporting pretensions, the little Eagle SX/4 appeared at right around the same time the Quattro was introduced in Europe. Cynics might poke fun at the Eagle SX/4’s high ground clearance and dismiss it as a “Joe Dirt” Quattro, but the little Eagle was a particularly impressive car given the fact that AMC’s R&D budget was a fraction of what the Volkswagen/Audi group had to play with.

Lawrence was a loving, devoted husband to Helen; beloved brother to Doris Nissen of Qualicum Beach; proud and supportive father to Linda (John) Webber of Kamloops, Bevan (Bonnie Franklin) Swanson of Abbotsford, Richard Swanson of 108 Mile House and Lori Steiner (Dan) of Sechelt; grandfather to Brett (Kaoru) Webber, Bonnie (Martin) Scherrer, Chad Swanson, Ryan (Aubrey Walsh) Swanson and Drew (Angie) Swanson; and the “twinkles in his eye”, his great grandchildren Jayde, Samuel, Elise, Masaya, Mason and Austin, as well as other family members and friends. Dad was predeceased by his father and mother William and Emma Swanson, 9 brothers, 1 sister, and daughter-in-law Margaret Swanson. Dad was born the 10th child in a family of 12 children on the family farm in Ridgedale, BC, a quiet rural corner of Matsqui. He first spied our mother Helen Bontron at the old Matsqui Station and was smitten for life. After their marriage in 1946, they worked the family farm with his brother Len. For Dad, the naming of Swanson Road (now Street) in Ridgedale was an enormous point of pride. In 1964, when their youngest child Lori was a year old, they sold the farm and moved to a house on York Avenue in Abbotsford,
where they spent the next 47 years. Lawrence was first a dairy farmer and secondly a carpenter by trade. He was employed by Croisdale Construction and by Matsqui and Abbotsford School District. He built houses, barns, bowling alleys, theaters, etc. His hands laboured on many projects in the Matsqui and Abbotsford areas. Recently, a caregiver recognized Dad as the man who, four decades prior, had saved the roof of her family’s home from collapsing during a major snowstorm on Sumas Prairie. This acknowledgment deeply touched him. Later, Dad became a Field Supervisor at Snowcrest Frozen Foods working alongside his brothers John, Len, Walt and Bill. Dad served as a member of the I.O.O.F. Lodge for 50 years (including 1 year as Grand Master of BC) in Mission and Chilliwack. Dad truly enjoyed the fellowship of his lodge. Our father was a kind and gentle man and always said it was his children that mattered to him most. His devotion to Mom as he cared for her at home after her dementia became apparent and, later, his consistent visits to the care facility, demonstrated his selfless love for her. We will miss his patience, wit & humour; until we meet again, Dad……. Our families would like to express their deepest and sincerest appreciation to Lawrence’s daughter-in-law, Bonnie and his son Bevan, who guided and assisted dad over the past 4 years; you both meant the world to him. There will be no service per Dad’s request. In lieu of flowers donations are gratefully accepted to BC Children’s Hospital. Online condolences to the family may be made to www.wiebeandjeskefh.com Wiebe & Jeske - 604.859.5885
Sanderson, John Fergus January 3, 1924 - October 9, 2014
It is with great sadness that we announce that John Fergus Sanderson passed away on Thursday, October 9th at Campbell River and District Hospital surrounded by his wife Betty and family. Dad is survived by his loving wife of 65 years, Elizabeth (Deuchars); daughters Susan Sanderson (Gary)d, Wendy Telosky (Dan), Barbara Sanderson (Mike)d, and Roderick Sanderson (Dessia Kroeger); six well loved grandchildren Lauren, Cale, Heather, Jill, Derek and Trevor and 1 very new great grandson, Max; brothers Bruce Sanderson (Rose) and Wallace Sanderson (Ev) as well as 6 nieces, nephews and families. The whole family is grateful that dad was able to meet his first great grandson while he was still conscious and that they were able to celebrate their 65th Wedding Anniversary on June 30th, 2014 with the immediate family. It was a beautiful day in their garden. Dad was born January 3, 1924 in Lashburn, Sk where his family settled and farmed. He enlisted in the Canadian Air Force in May 1943. In 1946 John’s parents and two brothers left the farm and
moved to Honeymoon Bay on Lake Cowichan to work in the Western Forest Products sawmill. In 1947 John and Betty met at a ball game in Duncan and were married June 30th, 1949. In 1958 we moved to Campbell River to work in the new Crown Zellerbach, Elk Falls Sawmill. These were happy years raising their four kids in Campbell River. Dad and mom loved to fish, hike and work together to improve their homes. Dad was a very unselfish man, he would attend or try anything if he was with the family and he worked hard to keep us busy . . . Mom and dad left the island on their Caribou adventure in 1973, fixed up another home and acreage. Upon retirement they settled in Abbotsford where they spent 15 busy years looking after grandchildren, playing bridge, lawnbowling and square dancing. The whole family wish to thank all the nursing staff on 3rd North (especially Marie, Nicole and Tom), Dr. Friderichs, Dr. Ness and Dr. Vandervene for their excellent care, and the Home Support staff and nurses. We could not have kept dad comfortable without your support and guidance. After a full and loving life it is time for dad to rest. We are going to miss you very much. Celebration of Life will be held Saturday, October 25th at 2 p.m. at the Anchor Inn, Campbell River. Messages of condolence may be forwarded to Betty and family at bettyjohn@ shaw.ca. In lieu of flowers a donation to the Heart and Stroke Foundation would be appreciated by the family.
