Truck parkades could go on farmland By JEFF NAGEL Aldergrove Star
New truck parking lots being opened by the province could in some cases be located on agricultural land, Transportation Minister Todd Stone said after unveiling the first site in North Delta. The first overnight parking area for 40 trucks at Highway 91 and Nordel Way will be open by late 2016 and other potential sites are being identified from Surrey to Abbotsford. They’re supposed to reduce the problem of big rigs congesting residential streets or being parked illegally on farmland. But Stone did not rule out using agricultural land for some of the sites. “It could potentially,” he told Black Press, adding that would require approval of the Agricultural Land Commission. “There will be no short circuiting of the ALC process whatsoever for any of the potential sites that we’re looking at.”

Work will soon begin to replace the Bertrand Bridge in Aldergrove, approximately four kilometers north of the U.S. border crossing on Highway 13 (264 Street). The project is expected to be complete by the end of 2015. The project involves installation of a temporary detour bridge, removal of the existing structure, and installation of a new structure. The project will increase safety, capacity, mobility and reliability on a route that is an

Fraser sockeye salmon fishery in ‘hot water’ By JEFF NAGEL Aldergrove Star
Dangerously hot water temperatures in the Fraser River, combined with low river flows and unusually warm ocean conditions are conspiring to create a dire outlook for returning sockeye salmon. And that could mean no fishing at all for the roughly 6.8 million sockeye projected to be on their way back to the Fraser to spawn – easily enough for what should have been a decent season. “What’s going on now is not good and I don’t anticipate it being good in August,” said Mike Lapointe, chief biologist for the Pacific Salmon Commission. “But it’s just a matter of waiting to see where the indicators are at that time and making the decisions based on the evidence we have. I think the observed data is going to be pretty extreme.” He said it’s “certainly possible” that sockeye fisheries will be severely curtailed or even cancelled altogether because a large proportion of the run may not survive to reach the spawning grounds. A record low snowpack in the
mountains this year has meant what little snow was in the alpine has melted off sooner than usual, leaving less to keep stream and river levels up and their temperatures down later in the summer. Fraser River temperatures at Hope have already gone over 19 degrees in recent days, Lapointe said, when the norm at this time of year is less than 15 degrees. “It’s extremely warm,” he said, adding the lower water flows compound the problem. “It’s like a bathtub. If you don’t have a lot of water in it, it’s really sensitive to the temperatures around.” High temperatures of 19 or 20 and higher can be deadly for salmon, which face more stress in their migration upriver to spawn, and they may also be more susceptible to disease. “As soon as they start to reach these temperatures they’re just not as efficient at migrating,” Lapointe said. “It becomes harder for the fish to do the work they need to do.” The Pacific Ocean hasn’t been kind to these returning sockeye either. Northeast ocean waters up to the Gulf of Alaska have been unusual-

he said. Lapointe is also concerned the warm river temperatures are becoming a trend. “Fraser summer temperatures have been getting warmer over time, not inconsistent with the sort of predictions you would get from climate change models.” He said different individual sockeye stocks may perform better than others in warmer conditions, depending on their past exposure. More fishing may be possible for less desirable pink salmon, which return later in the summer. Watershed Watch Salmon Society executive director Aaron Hill fears the river conditions will only deteriorate. “The low water and high temperatures are combining to create lethal water conditions for salmon,” Hill said. “Unless we get some rain it’s just going to get worse and worse through the summer.” He’s urging fishery managers not to authorize aggressive fisheries this year in order to put as many sockeye on the spawning grounds as possible to ensure conservation of weak stocks.
$875 raised for Aldergrove ‘Starfish Pack’ program By KURT LANGMANN Aldergrove Star
Starting this fall, just over one and a half more hungry kids will be sent home from school Friday afternoons with a backpack full of food for the weekend, thanks to funding donated to the Aldergrove Rotary Club at a recently held garage sale. The Aldergrove Rotary Club, which is spearheading the Aldergrove Starfish Pack Program, is working to raise enough money to provide 50
hungry kids with weekend food for the September 2015 to June 2016 school year. At an annual cost of $525 per backpack, the club needs to raise $26,250. “So far, we’re at just under 20 packs,” says Gus Hartl, the club’s treasurer, “and we’re confident we will reach our goal of providing weekend food for 50 kids this coming school year.” Kids who come to school hungry are helped weekdays by breakfast
and lunch programs offered by the schools. But to date there has been little or no help for these children on weekends. The Starfish Backpack Program was launched in Aldergrove in April of this year to provide weekend food for kids who come to school on empty stomachs. In the last school year, a total of 20 children, 10 each from Parkside and Shortreed Elementary Schools, went home Friday afternoons with backpacks full
of nutritious and easy to prepare food for the weekend. The Aldergrove Rotary Club wants to expand the program to feed 50 kids — 20 each from Parkside and Shortreed, and 10 from Betty Gilbert Middle School, starting in September. Please consider sponsoring one or more backpacks so more hungry kids in our community can be fed weekends for the September to June school year.
You may sponsor a Starfish Pack in three ways. To receive a tax receipt, donate online at www.starfishpack.ca, or mail your cheque to program partner: Encompass Support Services Society, 20618 Eastleigh Crescent, Langley, B.C., V3A 4C4. Or if you don’t need a tax receipt, mail your cheque to the Aldergrove Rotary Club, P.O. Box 1602, Aldergrove, B.C. V4W 2V1. Be sure to specify “Starfish Program” on the cheque.
Missing Abbotsford man found deceased in Chilliwack By VIKKI HOPES Aldergrove Star
The body of an Abbotsford man who was reported missing May 27 was found on Saturday in Chilliwack. Abbotsford Police Const. Ian MacDonald said Kenneth Berghall, 51, was found deceased near McDonald and Ballam roads, a rural area along the Fraser River. He was found
in the 2000 Ford Explorer which investigators had said he was likely driving at the time of his disappearance. MacDonald said a passerby spotted Berghall and then called Chilliwack RCMP. There were no indications of foul play, and an autopsy will be conducted in the coming days, he said. Berghall’s only sibling, Rita Heslop, reported him missing
after family members had not heard from him for several days. He had been active on social media on May 20, but otherwise had no contact with family or friends. Video surveillance captured him making a purchase at the Highwayman Pub liquor store at about 4 p.m. that day. Police released photos of a black 2000 Ford Explorer, the
vehicle that Berghall often borrowed from a friend, in hopes of aiding in the search. Heslop and her husband, Bruce, held a press conference on June 11, pleading for any information about her brother’s disappearance. At the time, they said the behaviour was out of character for Berghall, who had a 25-yearold daughter.
They said Berghall was an avid outdoorsman who loved four-by-fouring and was a “mud racer.” They also said that Berghall, a heavy duty mechanic, had no history of mental-health concerns, and he had recently seen a doctor about some heart issues, but the family wasn’t aware that it was anything serious.

Langley Chamber of Commerce speaks out after public rejects Translink tax question Aldergrove Star
After Metro Vancouver voters overwhelmingly rejected the proposed TransLink tax July 2, the Greater Langley Chamber of Commerce issued a statement affirming it made the right decision to oppose it. “The Greater Langley Chamber of Commerce was the only board of trade in Metro Vancouver that did not support the “Yes” campaign in the Translink tax referendum,” said chamber president Scott Johnston on the day of the voting
results. “The issue was carefully reviewed and vigorously debated by our board of directors, and the Greater Langley Chamber of Commerce released its official position of “No” to the 0.5 per cent tax hike on Dec. 17, 2014. After the No vote, Johnston said: “We are in alignment with the core values of the members that we serve. [The] voting results reaffirm that the Greater Langley Chamber of Commercehas been, and shall continue to be, the
voice of business for Langley.” Specifically, Langley Chamber was concerned with the lack of stated mechanisms to mitigate economic leakage of consumers shopping in Abbotsford and cross-border to avoid paying the regional tax, the lack of proposed improvements and investments in Langley itself, and the risk of South of Fraser investments being deferred or delayed if the other larger projects go beyond the original budgets or incur construction delays and the inevitable cost overruns,
Johnston continued. “The efficient movement of people, goods and services has been a priority concern of the Greater Langley Chamber of Commerce for the past several years. “The Chamber board looks forward to working with our elected representatives at all levels of government to identify a sustainable funding source that is equitable and provides the ability to impact transportation management throughout the Metro Vancouver region.”

Seven Langley Township employees were paid more than $200,000 last year, a just-released annual statement of financial information for municipal staff shows.

A look at Canadian averages for equivalent positions shows senior managers of financial, communications, and other businesses in Canada make $225,000 a year while managers of utilities, transportation, and construction make $205,000. The average pay for a private sector CEO in Canada is $9.1 million. The average B.C. salary is $46,900. The Township also released its annual report on council compensation, showing mayor Jack Froese made $109,143 plus $9,280 in expenses last year. The figures for council members were skewed because of the civic election last year, in which
three incumbents, Grant Ward, Bev Dornan and Steve Ferguson, were ousted and three new members, Petrina Arnason, Blair Whitmarsh and Angie Quaale, were elected. Even though he didn’t serve a full year, councillor Grant Ward still made the most money, with $47,755 in salary plus $9,732 in expenses. Ward, Ferguson and Dornan were the only members of council to accept a controversial travel allowance, a $340 a month topup proposed by an independent task force on council pay rates in 2011. At the tine, Ferguson and Dornan said they would make donations to charity.

Global warming a boon and a bane for Fraser Valley farmers
PUBLIC NOTICE Langley School District Considers Disposition of Properties
By TYLER OLSEN Aldergrove Star
It’s 9 a.m. on an early summer morning, and on a Sumas Prairie field, tractors kick up billowing clouds of dust as they plow into the Fraser Valley’s rich but bone-dry soil. The nearby highway is still clogged with morning commuters, but the temperature is already climbing towards 30 C. This land has been profitable ever since Sumas Lake was drained in the early 1900s, and in its soil now grow berries and corn and vegetables and turf. The same occurs across Abbotsford – in Matsqui, Bradner, Glen Valley and elsewhere – where hundreds of millions of dollars worth of vegetables, fruit and livestock form the base of the local economy. But as the dry weather continues and temperature records topple, the question now is whether growers adapt and thrive, or will they and their crops wilt under the sun? rrrrr The climate is essentially Mother Nature’s weather oddsmaker. It can’t guarantee that you won’t have to use your umbrella in July, but climate trends tell you how likely it is to rain and, if so, how much is likely to fall. However, those odds aren’t the same as when farmers were planting their fields 40 years ago. Whether or not you agree with the scientific consensus that human activity is the cause of the change, the local climate has indisputably warmed over the past half-century. The average high August temperature between 1961 and 1990 was 23.6 C. Since 1990, average August temperatures have dipped below that mark just once. The average temperature in the 30 years ending in 2010 was 0.7 C higher than in the 30 years preceding 1990. And while yearly precipitation averages haven’t changed much, more of that rain is falling during the winter months, while summers are significantly drier. Warming temperatures can have myriad effects on the way the climate behaves, and potentially on the odds of extreme weather events and droughts. But even at its simplest – warmer and drier summers – climate change could have a profound effect on local agriculture. rrrrr The Fraser Valley has a rich agricultural history that predates European arrival. Before Simon Fraser ever set foot in the valley that would one day bear his name, the Sto:lo people maintained large patches of berries and edible roots. Since the arrival of Europeans, rapid changes in immigration patterns, technology, trade and global tastes have all dramatically influenced the agriculture that currently dominates the Abbotsford area. Those forces will continue to shape what is grown here, but they have

Slow down, take it easy in the heat, seniors By JIM McGREGOR Aldergrove Star
When you become a senior, you have to keep on your toes, look for bargains, deals, discounts or perks. There are plenty of opportunities out there to save a dollar or maybe make your life a bit easier. Last week, the Environment Police issued an Air Quality Advisory stating: “Persons with chronic underlying medical conditions should postpone strenuous activities until the advisory is lifted. “Staying indoors in air conditioned spaces helps to reduce fine particulate exposure. Exposure is particularly a concern for infants, the elderly and those who have diabetes, and lung or heart disease.” As a senior, I don’t have to read the whole advisory but I can pick out the message that says: ‘The elderly should postpone strenuous activities, staying indoors in air conditioned spaces, until the advisory is lifted. Pretty much sounds like a week off for me. The lawn is looking a bit ragged, even though the grass is dying the dandelions and weeds are still growing strong. But with that high particulate content in the air, should I risk trudging through the haze behind the mower? I think
not. Cooking is out of the question. No sense in raising the temperature in the kitchen and I can only imagine the damage to my lungs of inhaling barbecue smoke on top of the forest fire fumes. I might risk making my way out to my vehicle and heading out to an air conditioned restaurant. Staying inside is a great chance to catch up on reading, writing and watching old movies. You might even say that showering and shaving are strenuous activities so maybe forget that for a few days and just hang out in shorts, sandals and a T-shirt. The other patrons and staff in the restaurants will let you know when it is time to risk cleaning up a bit. Life is never fair. When we get nice weather, it gets too hot then the smoke rolls in. If we find a nice beach, there is swimmer’s itch or an e-coli warning posted. Summer holidays are never like the adventures in the travel magazines. I recall zipping along the highway in our truck and camper making great time anticipating an early arrival at our campsite then rounding the corner and coming up behind a long line of vehicles all stopped for paving or blasting or some other road
enhancement project heralded by the big sign, “Sorry for the Inconvenience, P.A. Gaglardi.” I doubt Mr. Gaglardi, then B.C.’s highways minister, was ever stuck in a truck and camper in 90-degree heat with two hot, cranky little kids. Inconvenience is not even close to describing the experience. In the old days, before the Coquihalla Highway, you came home on either the Fraser Canyon or the HopePrinceton highway. Many a camper, returning from holidays, has spent a Sunday afternoon 10 miles east of Hope in bumper to bumper traffic as both highways merged at the junction in Hope. Never a great way to end a perfect vacation. Measuring the good with bad and making the best of the situation is what we call ‘life’ and no one ever promised it would be fair all the time. Sometimes we just have to be reminded to slow down a bit. That’s enough writing for now, I’m feeling a bit faint and the jug of iced tea is calling my name. No sense overdoing it while the advisory is still in effect. At least, that’s what McGregor says.
Editor: Let my wife and I add our names to the list of Aldergrove residents disappointed with this council’s re-jigged swimming pool design. On the plus side, they have scrapped incorporating the old school house, which was truly goofy. Unfortunately, the whole project seems to have been overtaken by hockey enthusiasts, when the original and obvious deficit in the community has long been a useful indoor pool. Foisting this design on the swimmers of the community, who must now travel to swim elsewhere, is disheartening to say the least. Aging baby boomers like us, must maintain mobility of old hips and other joints and find swimming is an all-encompassing exercise of necessity. When the arctic blasts of winter arrive in this pool design, how does this design serve us? Poorly. The old Kinsella book line was “If we build it, they will come.” The only individuals flocking to this pool in winter will be penguins. Designers should consult and listen to a swim club, not a hockey organization. Think again on the pool design. This one is inadequate and a failing, upsetting let down. Bryn and Lynn Jones, Aldergrove
Don’t let it happen to you and your family! Editor: When it comes to accidents, it’s common to think, oh, it will never happen to us. That is what we thought until our six-yearold son, Roan, a member of The War Amps Child Amputee (CHAMP) Program, lost his leg in a lawn mower accident. A few years ago, Roan was riding on a lawn mower with an adult when he fell off and severed his left leg at the knee. As he was airlifted by helicopter to the hospital, we wondered if we were going to see him again. With lawn cutting season here, we want to help spread Roan’s message across the country that kids should never be around a lawn mower. It doesn’t matter how good you are with machinery, it just takes a moment for a life-changing accident to happen. Today, Roan is an active and energetic child thanks to help from The War Amps with financial assistance for artificial limbs, regional seminars and peer support. We just hope that his story will prevent even one child from being injured. If you would like to learn more about how to encourage children to play safely, please visit waramps.ca/. Jolene and Neil Heck
Hometown customer service at its best Editor: This past weekend we held our son’s birthday party at the McDonald’s in Aldergrove. We were there no more than 10 minutes when we experienced a power outage. The outage lasted quite some time and we were concerned his birthday party would be ruined. The staff and manager ensured our party for seven children went off without a problem. Food was ordered through the McDonald’s by the freeway and McDonald’s staff were sent to pick up and deliver to us. We wanted for nothing. The staff couldn’t do enough to ensure our little guy had the time of his life. When all was said and done and I went to pay for the food we were advised it would be no charge. What a wonderful experience. We have a renewed appreciation for human kindness and thank and commend this group of people for their excellence in customer service. Vivian Mosley, Aldergrove

Is B.C. LNG industry real? Yes Stave off the apocalypse
VICTORIA – The B.C. legislature is back in session this week, a rare summer sitting to approve a 25-year project agreement for the first large-scale liquefied natural gas project in northern B.C. Finance Minister Mike de Jong released the lengthy legal agreement prior to the debate, saying this step should remove any doubt that an international investment group led by Petronas of Malaysia intends to go ahead. With billions invested in upstream resources and buyers waiting at home, the Pacific Northwest LNG group includes Chinese state corporation Sinopec, Indian Oil Corp., Japan Petroleum Exploration Corp. and Petroleum Brunei. The most contentious issue is the government’s intention to protect the investors from “discriminatory” tax and regulations for the life of the project. The government insists these sorts of long-term cost certainty agreements are commonplace, and don’t affect provincial and federal taxes or environmental regulations unless they single out LNG operations. Future governments can raise corporate tax rates, carbon tax or enter into a cap and trade system. Ottawa can scrap capital cost allowances that were recently extended to LNG producers, which is significant because Liberal leader Justin Trudeau has indicated he would get rid of what he calls subsidies to fossil fuels. Both the province and Ottawa

allow capital cost write-offs against corporate tax, to attract investment. B.C. attracted a lot of gas drilling rigs from Alberta with tax breaks for deep drilling. The B.C. government invited comparisons with Western Australia LNG producers, and NDP researchers did just that. They noted that Australia’s Gorgon and North West Shelf LNG projects have written provisions that local employment and local suppliers will get preference. Those are absent in B.C., along with apprenticeship guarantees for LNG. “There was hard bargaining by the companies, and certainly the premier went into this negotiation in a very weak position, having to deliver on her extravagant and grandiose promises from the election,” NDP critic Bruce Ralston said. “The companies did well. Whether the citizens of British Columbia did well is certainly an open question.” Green Party MLA Andrew Weaver painted himself into a corner, having spent the last two years dismissing the B.C. LNG industry as a fantasy that will never come to pass, strictly on economic grounds. He has since branded the Petronas
deal, a template for any future projects, a “generational sellout.” Another big player with gas well investments in northeast B.C. is Shell, with a proposal for Kitimat. Its prospects have improved since it took over British Gas Group, which had its own LNG intentions here. Another group led by Altagas remains on track to ship LNG from its Douglas Channel site before the end of the decade. It’s important to remember that without LNG exports, B.C.’s natural gas industry will shrink rapidly after 50 years of increasingly significant revenues from sales to the U.S. Leaving aside all the political positioning around the province’s largest private investment to date, if this doesn’t go ahead we will all feel the effects. De Jong had a blunt response when asked what the province gets in return for all its guarantees of low tax environment: “Their money.” At peak construction, Pacific Northwest LNG will need as many as 4,500 workers, with 500 or more operations jobs depending on how far it expands. The finance ministry forecasts that once Pacific Northwest LNG is up and running, it represents $9 billion in revenues to the province over 10 years, including gas royalties and taxes. That’s more than taxpayers can expect from the entire forest industry. Tom Fletcher is legislature reporter and columnist for Black Press. Twitter: @tomfletcherbc Email: tfletcher@blackpress.ca

Everyone — well those in the media and on social media anyway — is watching for an apocalypse to prove that climate change is truly happening. The truth is more subtle. While this year’s strange weather patterns and unusual wildfire season are upsetting, scientists say we should keep an eye on long-term trends, not the short-term aberrations. One area where this is particularly evident is in the study of salmon habits. Scientists have found that trends of ocean warming and cooling can mask the effects of climate change, with a cooler phase starting now. But at the same time, scientists are also noticing some salmon species are moving further north, even into Alaska, and some Fraser River salmon are returning early, which can affect spawning survival. Another report this week found that changes in ocean physics and chemistry brought on by climate change will eventually kill off some salmon, reducing the food fishery and making salmon even more expensive than it is now.

burns because of the record heat. Peas aren’t in their element either, because of how early the summer heat hit. Carrots and onions are also at risk. The berry industry, he says, has also had to deal with the fact that harvests, generally staggered over weeks and months, are having to be picked and packaged within a tighter time frame. Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada cites both positive and negative effects from climate change, but warns that “warmer summers could also cause problems for livestock producers related to heat-wave deaths. This is especially true in poultry operations.” Meanwhile, dairy and beef farm operations

1 and 3 degrees Celsius – above 1990 levels will be good for some areas and harmful for others. But that same panel says temperatures could rise anywhere between 1.4 and 5.5 degrees Celsius. Change at the upper end of that spectrum could have such an effect on global economies and infrastructure as to mitigate any local benefits. Still, Baumann is hopeful that at this point many of the issues can be overcome. “We’re adjusting to it quickly,” Baumann continued. “I believe our agriculture has the knowledge to deal with all of these things, and if you look at it overall, if the forest doesn’t burn up around us, in agriculture, we have a fantastic chance to be even better than we are now.”
While there are those who say we can’t afford to eat salmon anyway, the warning should be heeded because of the importance of the iconic fish to the ecosystem. Salmon, including chum and coho that we see return each year, are a keystone species, critical to the survival of other forms of life. They fertilize our forests, feed wildlife and, like the proverbial canary in a coal mine, can inform us about our own future by changes in their habits. How can we help? We can conserve water and electricity so more water can be released in the river. We can stop pouring noxious substances down storm drains and discourage development from being placed too close to creeks so trees and foliage, which moderate temperatures and water flows, and feed rivers and creeks, are preserved. It may be smokey and hot but that doesn’t mean the apocalypse is here. If we learn nothing else from this overheated summer, we should at least learn to be more sensitive and protective of our natural surroundings.

WFDA chairman Dan Qualls presented Karen with the first place buckle for top gun for 2014 and the ratings for 2015 at the meet in Arkansas on June 20. It did not come easy as she was tied with Diana Rosen of Minnesota at the end of the year’s contests on the fast draw circuit. WFDA rules broke the tie as Karen had a first and second place in contests throughout the year as opposed to her rival’s two second placings. Other winners were Aldergrove’s Nicole Franks who nailed down the sixth place buckle award and ratings while in the men’s division it was Shawn Murphy of Langley who placed fourth and Den Robinson of Burnaby with the eighth place buckle award. All are members of the Thunderbird Fast Draw Club of Langley. Karen also won two more trophies as she was the fastest of the female shooters in two of eight events at the contest. She finished in seventh place overall which keeps her in line for the Women’s Allaround Championship

‘Salad days’ at the 2015 Aldergrove Fair by Kurt Langmann It’s going to be “salad days” for the Aldergrove Festival Days Society at the 103rd year of the fair tradition in Aldergrove. The society’s Aldergrove Fair Days is all this weekend. On July 17-18-19, Aldergrove Festival Days Society and Aldergrove Agricultural Association jointly host the Aldergrove Fair on the grounds of the Aldergrove Athletic Park and Aldergrove Secondary School (26770 - 29 Ave.). Aldergrove Festival Days president Karen Long
said, “This year’s theme is ‘SALAD’ which stands for Shooters, Artists, Luge, Animals and Divas. The fair, which won Langley Tourism’s event of the year award this past year, will be a worldclass unique event.” The Fair starts at 6 p.m., on the Friday, with a Car Show & Shine, food, music and more activities. On the Saturday and Sunday there will be fun for the entire family with entertainment, rides, food, and great things to see, do and buy through-

out each day. The Aldergrove Fair Days Parade returns on the Saturday at 10 a.m., and stays on Fraser Highway downtown, starting at the Community Policing Office at 270 Street and ending at 273 Street by the OAP Hall. The public is invited to register floats or other entries in the 2015 Parade. Saturday’s opening ceremonies include the presentation of the Hilda Reddick Volunteer of the Year Award and the Bev Gold Youth Volunteer Award. There is nothing that truly says “Country Fair” better than rows of prize exhibits of sewing, gardening and other crafts that demonstrate the skill, the enthusiasm and the country pride of the exhibitors. The Aldergrove Fair Exhibits Entry Book lists all the sections and categories adults, youths and preschoolers may enter and offers a sneak peek at some great events offered in 2014. It is available on-line at: www.aldergrovefair.ca/. “We are working on some new events this year,” said Long. “We are turning the exhibit hall at the Kinsmen Community Centre into a Fairyland, a Fairy Gardens, and there will be an interactive area where we will be making berry wines. “We also encourage and try to get kids involved, with the 4H exhibits and we’re having a children’s fashion show this year.” A magical Fairyland is coming alive at the Aldergrove Fair this year. Children and the young at heart will be able to create fairy wands, swords, and headgear. Listen to our story teller as they weave a fairy story. Learn to identify the different flower fairies. Before the Fair, showcase your creativity by entering
in the Fairy Dress design contest then at the Fair watch the Fairies flit down the runway in the Fashion Show. There are also prizes for best decorated rocks, most creative bug, favourite fairy garden, fairy door, and tea cup posies. The Zucchini Races luge track returns so that fairgoers can decorate their zucchinis and put wheels on them for races down the track. The Chili Cookoff and other food events are featured on the Sunday this year, and the Fair Days ‘Weekend in Aldergrove’ raffle features $1,000 worth of garden equipment donated by Bruce Heslop of Diamond Bar Equipment. See the schedule of events published in The Aldergrove Star, so you can take in the Agricultural Exhibits, Antique Tractor Pull, Extreme Lawnmower Races, World Fast Draw Championship and Air Pistol demonstrations, Chili Cook-off Contest, Hay Rides, Kids Zone, Reptile Guy, the Westcoast Amusements carnival rides, the Cowboy Church and Pet Parade, among other entertainment and activities. Admission to the Fair is by donation. Vendors, sponsors and volunteers are always welcomed. “Volunteers are the magic ingredient in any organization. The most help is needed close to and during the Fair, from July 16 to 19. Your help at any time is wonderful,” said Long. “Contact the Fair at: aldergrovevolunteers@gmail.com to work out how your schedule could fit with ours.”

Fair Hosts World Open Index Fast Draw Championships by Kurt Langmann After much waiting and re-positioning of contests to make up the World Fast Draw Association’s ‘Grand Slam’, the date of Aldergrove Fairdays’ Annual July weekend was finally opened up for the Canadian Fast Draw ‘Open Index’ Championships. It began at Aldergrove Athletic Park in 2008, and it didn’t come easy. It was six years after, in 2013, that the then-Chairman of WFDA first visited to compete here, and saw a potential in granting the hosts, Langley’s Thunderbird Fast Draw Club, the sanctioning of the World Open Index Fast Draw Championships here. It helped that Reuters’ press was on hand that year to cover the event and the story went around the world, even being reported in The China Daily. Working in conjunction with the main sponsors of the contest, the Township of Langley, the Langley Rod and Gun Club, and this year, Shaniko Holsters, along with several other donors and supporters, the Thunderbirds and Aldergrove Fair Days folks have brought this unique event into its eighth year. For anyone wondering what an ‘Open Index’ contest is, just think of golf and tennis. Tennis is an elimination style event in which the winner might not even have to compete against half of the entries. In golf, the winner plays against everyone and only is victorious if she or he ends up with the lowest score after so many holes. In Fast Draw‘s index event, the shooter who ends up, after several different

One of the creators, Suzanne Robinson, said, “Children will be able to see Queen Elsa in the parade on July 18 as she glides down Fraser Highway. Then they can visit with her in person on her throne just outside our Aldergrove Fair tent on the fairgrounds from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. This is a wonderful opportunity for children to get into the bright colours and imagery of fairies, magic and gardens.”
or contact Karen Long 604-418-9507
McIntosh added that, “Children — of all ages — are encouraged to build and bring in their fairy gardens.” “Pixie dust!” McIntosh exclaimed, with a twinkle in her eye. “You could win a prize ribbon and bragging rights for the best Fairy Garden, Miniature Farm and pretty well anything artistic or agricultural at the Fair.”
Robinson noted that there will be special events such as the Parade of Fairies, happening on Sunday at the Fair.
Prizes include two all day ride passes for Westcoast Amusement for the two best Fairy Garden entries.
“We are looking forward to a great response on Sunday so that any young person in heart and mind who wants to participate can dress in any fairy type regalia and meet us at the Fairy Tent at 11:30 a.m.”
All the information about this is in the Aldergrove Fair Book, available in the community and on the website www.AldergroveFair.ca/.”
“Fairy gardens have become an incredible social phenomenon over the past year,” said Susan McIntosh, a co-creator of Fairyland at

Aldergrove Mixed Slopitch Champions Celebrate
SUBMITTED/JENNIFER SIMON PHOTO
Got Played (at left) were winners of the A division mixed slopitch finals on Sunday at Parkside Park, and the Danimals (at right) were winners of the B division title.
Good coaching, positive attitude brings wins By KURT LANGMANN Aldergrove Star
The Aldergrove Mixed Slopitch season has come to an end for another year, with the 14 teams in the league playing their season-closing tournament over the weekend. The Leg Ends team was the top team overall for the season, which started in April, thanks to their consistent wins. However, it was the Got Played team which netted the A division trophy and the Danimals who earned the B division cup. Both of these teams had their struggles in the season but when it came down to the final three games on Sunday, they were the ones to win the three consecutive games and the honors.
It was the second consecutive year that the Got Played team won the season-end tourney. “We were the fourth overall in the season and we struggled in the middle, but we started making the base hits, started coming together at the end,” said Jen Gallawan, the Got Played ‘team mom.’ “The league is a great bunch to play with, and you can come from the bottom and win, all you need is good coaching and a positive attitude.” Got Played mercied Prestige Worldwide in their final game, after defeating the Double D’s and Coaches Bulldog earlier on Sunday. Got Played’s coaches were Sean Gallawan, Paul Donald and Chris Rink. Got Played team members are JENNIFER SIMON PHOTO

Gallawan noted that one of their players was injured in the first game, so she subbed in the second game, but when she too was injured in the second game, Got Played had to reach out for subs to play the final game. Gallawan credits the two players, one each from Leg Ends and Wrecking Crew, for stepping up to the plate. Mona Lewthwaite of the Danimals said they had tied one and lost two games on Saturday, which seeded them in the B division, but the team roared back on Sunday to win all three games. The final was a 15-13 win over Three Strikes, after defeating the Mad Batters and Alcoballics. The Danimals include Mona and husband Dan, Steve Tremlett, Tom Bancroft, Stewart Broad, Stephanie Stewart, Chrissy Simon, Tyler Willis,

‘One year to go’ until 2016 BC Summer Games Aldergrove Star
The BC Summer Games is just over 12 months away. On July 21, a One Year to Go event is being held for the Abbotsford 2016 BC Summer Games slated to kick off on the same date next year. The celebration at Thunderbird Plaza (behind city hall) will run from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. and will feature local entertainment, including singers and First Nations dancers, as well as food and light refreshments. Entry is free and additional information regarding the Summer Games will be available. “The Games legacy is alive and well in Abbotsford,” said Abbotsford BC Summer Games board president Steve Carlton. Abbotsford last hosted the Games in 2004, which Carlton said was a great success. “We have a fabulous history of volunteers and welcome anyone with and without experience.” There are currently 125 key volunteers, directors and chair members working on communications, accommodations, transportation and food, but they are looking for another 3,000 volunteers to help in every area. There is a major amount of planning and organization left to accomplish, said Carlton. Go to bcgames.org for further details. The main hub of action will be the Rotary Stadium area. Three new fields at W.J. Mouat Secondary — adjacent to Rotary Stadium — are also being converted to all-weather turf to accommodate some of the field sports like rugby and field hockey. In addition, Abbotsford Senior Secondary and the University of the Fraser Valley will be host to competition events, although the specific sports other than volleyball have yet to be established. Carlton said businesses are encouraged to donate money, materials or services. Any surplus funds will go to a legacy fund to benefit the City of Abbotsford. The 2004 Abbotsford Games left a community legacy of over $174,000, for instance, which was used to purchase a saddle tent still used at various events around the city. There will also be pro-

Tribute to D-Day veteran
www.aldergrovestar.com
Aldergrove Star
Member of Parliament Mark Warawa gave a special tribute to Langley D-Day veteran Muir Adair in recognition of his service to Canada at Canada Day celebrations held at the Langley Lodge, where 96-year-old Adair resides. Adair was part of the Allied forces D-Day landing on Omaha beach on June 6, 1944. In recognition of his war efforts Muir has received the Croix de Guerre, Defense of Britain Star, Liberation of France, and other medals. Most recently, on May 10, 2015, Muir Adair received the Légion d’honneur, the highest decoration bestowed by France, in recognition of his contributions to the liberation of France. “Co n g r a t u l a t i o n s , Muir Adair on receiving the Légion d’honneur,” said the Langley MP. “We are thrilled for you and very happy that you have been given this great honour. We know that you treasure this award in large part as a reflected tribute to the other men in your unit,
Muir Adair (seated) received the Légion d’honneur. many of whom did not make it back.” “Canada Day is a fitting time to thank our veterans for the sacrifices,” said the Langley MP. “It is because of Canadian Veterans like Muir Adair that the very foundations of our great country were laid: freedom, democracy and justice. This Canada Day, I encourage all Canadians to take time to thank our Veterans.” Adair joined the RCAF in 1941, and was assigned to the radar section. He was sent to the UK for further training, and in 1943, he joined the mobile 15082 Ground Control Interception
Unit as Flight Sergeant. On June 6, 1944, Adair landed on Omaha Beach as part of the D-Day invasion. His radar unit was one of two radar units sent to support the Normandy invasion. Sadly, 47 of the 64 in his unit were either killed or wounded upon arriving on the beach. Adair was one of the lucky ones. He swam to shore under fire, quickly scrambled his way off the beach, and dove into the trenches for cover. Lost, soaked, and exhausted, he eventually fell asleep. His luck continued into the next day when he managed to meet up
with his radar unit. They quickly and efficiently got to work, repairing the remaining damaged radar equipment and vehicles, and set up a field base. Adair’s unit pushed on to Paris. Adair was in charge of the major part of the men and equipment of his unit and was at all times in the front of the battle. His unit was responsible for the ultimate destruction of over 50 enemy aircraft. His skill and devotion to duty, his coolness and judgment in the face of many difficult situations, was a fine example to all those who worked with him. On June 6, 1944, Allied troops stormed German defenses on the beaches of Normandy (France) to open the way to Germany from the West. That day, approximately 14,000 Canadians landed in Normandy. However, eventual success in the D-Day campaign came at great cost. The Canadians suffered the most casualties of any division in the British Army Group: 1,074 casualties, including 359 killed.
