For the first time in five years, Abbotsford and Mission are seeing a hike in annual crime figures released by Statistics Canada.

But police spokesmen in both communities point out that the numbers are still down from where they were in 2010.

The stats, released Wednesday, report the crime severity index and the crime rate for 33 census metropolitan areas (CMAs) across Canada for 2014.

Council agenda and meeting schedules available at www.abbotsford.ca

An Abbotsford man has pleaded guilty to charges of possessing child pornography and importing or distributing child porn.

Danial James Munroe, 59, issued the plea on Monday in Abbotsford provincial court.

He had initially been charged with four offences, but charges of making or publishing child porn and another count of importing or distributing child porn are expected to be stayed.

Munroe’s sentencing hearing has been scheduled for Nov. 27 in Abbotsford.

Munroe was arrested and charged in early October after the Abbotsford Police Department (APD) was notified by an outside investigator that on Feb. 4, 2014, the possible distribution and possession of images of child sexual abuse had occurred from an Abbotsford home.

The APD’s major crime unit began investigating the matter in early June and executed a search warrant at Munroe’s residence on Sept. 3.

He has been out on bail since shortly after his arrest and is required to follow courtordered conditions that bar contact with anyone under the age of 18, prohibit the use of devices that can access the internet, and ban him from attending places where minors may be present.

Published and printed by Black Press Limited 34375 Gladys Avenue, Abbotsford.

War-time crashes claimed many lives Regarding the News’ good coverage of the wartime Mount Welch Liberator crash, I have a couple of historical comments and corrections to pass along to your reporters.

The article says it was the “largest single loss of life in B.C. during the Second World War,” which simply is not true, sadly enough.

By my count, there were nine Liberators written off in B.C. in eight fatal accidents during the war and all 11 crew members were killed in four of them (Saltspring Island, Nitinat Lake, Bell Island and Mt. Welch).

There were 14 killed in the Liberator crash near Bamfield, which included several nonaircrew airmen and airwomen hitching a ride from Tofino to Pat Bay on leave.

The other accidents were the crash at Whonnock (seven killed), EW210 that had mid-air explosion and crashed in the water near Point Roberts (three killed) and the runway collision at Abbotsford

(nine killed).

There was also a mid-air with a Kittyhawk, while practicing fighter affiliation work off the White Rock pier. This Liberator landed with minimal damage, but the Kittyhawk went straight into the water and the pilot was killed.

The normal Liberator crew was 11, but when they were doing preliminary flying, navigation and bomb-dropping training without the air gunners on board, it was only seven.

Also, the writer suggests that one of the deceased RAF members would be going home soon, because the war in Europe had ended.

I know or have known a number of aircrew who trained on the Liberators at Abbotsford. It appears that most of the crews were sent to the Far East, as the RAF had many Liberator squadrons in India and Ceylon, attacking Japanese forces in Burma, China, Thailand, Indochina, etc.

Also, some crews were sent to RCAF Eastern Air Command and RAF Coastal Command,

who were mainly involved in suppressing German submarines in the Atlantic Ocean. RAF Bomber Command did not use Liberators on bombing missions in Northern Europe, but did have squadrons based in Egypt and Palestine, and later in Italy, for bombing targets in Southern Europe, Poland, etc.

Of course, the war in the Pacific was not yet over, so I would think that most of the crews graduating from No. 5 OTU would continue to head in that direction.

According to Carl Vincent’s book on the Liberator, the RAF received over 2,000 Liberators through purchase and Lend Lease.

I was aware that Chris Weicht and his Air Cadet squadron had erected a memorial several decades ago, but was not aware that the memorial was down on Airplane Creek and not up at the crash site.

Jerry Vernon, President, Vancouver Chapter, Canadian Aviation Historical Society

Wasting water?

I am very concerned how certain businesses in Abbotsford think saving our water does not apply to them.

We all see our lawns burnt, hedges and shrubs hanging on by the absolute minimal of water, and even then the foliage is yellowing.

Death is around the corner.

The loss of these plants costs homeowners. Yet on Wednesday, July 22, in the morning, I ventured to a local chain store to make a purchase. And I was shocked to see a man on a mobile scaffold pressure spraying the walls.

They are not even dirty, just maybe dusty. Where he washed and where it dried looked the same.

This is a an unnecessary waste of hundreds of litres of precious water.

It did not have to be done dur-

ing our drought. Considering how much money that store makes from Abbotsford citizens, I think this is an uncaring attitude to our plight.

A slap in the face to Abbotsford and our rules.

While city hall has spies checking up on homeowners lawns, and issuing tickets (should be fines), they allow this blatant abuse of our scarce water.

A hefty fine should be assessed against corporate wasters. Show the people of suffering Abbotsford some respect and compassion.

A 53-year-old man driving an Escalade was heading north on Montrose and apparently attempted to make a left turn, crossing in front of the motorcycle.

The investigation is continuing, and MacDonald said police are looking at ticketing the Escalade driver for failing to yield and driving without due care and attention.

A male motorcyclist was taken to hospital with serious leg injuries after a crash on Tuesday night in Abbotsford.

The collision took place at about 5:30 p.m. in the area of Montrose Avenue and South Fraser Way. Abbotsford Police Const. Ian MacDonald said that at the time of the crash, the 47-year-old motorcyclist, riding a Harley-Davidson, was travel-

Abbotsford News

The Court of Appeal has upheld the conviction of a man arrested in a violent 2010 home invasion in Mission that saw the owner of the house shot three times in both legs and struck with a bat.

Kenneth William Chudley was sentenced to 10 years in prison after being convicted in 2011 of using a firearm in a robbery, assault with a bat, break and enter, and unlawful confinement.

On Dec. 14, 2010, five men stormed a rural Mission home. The owner of the house tried to fend them off with a spear, but was shot, and hit with a bat. The assailants duct-taped his hands, feet and mouth and demanded the location of money and a safe.

They left with guns, Christmas presents, pot plants and $2,300.

Upon his conviction in December 2011, Chudley fled the Abbotsford courthouse. He was arrested later that day. He would later plead guilty to escape from lawful custody.

On appeal, Chudley’s lawyer argued the trial judge relied too much on fingerprint evidence. Chudley was not identified by the homeowner who had been attacked, but his fingerprint had been found on a rolled-up wad of duct tape. Police ran the print through a database, which suggested Chudley was a possible match. An officer then verified the match.

The three appeal court justices upheld the conviction last month. Justice J.A. Newberry wrote that the trial judge made no errors, and that the appeal court cannot re-try the case.

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.

My job is to help residents settle into their new home with comfort and ease.

Healthy McBeth improves time at GranFondo Aims to be ambassador for organ donation Gary AHUJA Black Press

All Roy McBeth needed to better his time in the Prospera Valley GranFondo was a new kidney.

Competing in the 160-kilometre bike event for the first time last year, McBeth finished the grueling ride in 4:53:38, which was good for 43rd in the men’s 35- to 44-year-old age group. That was 43 minutes better than the average time, but what made his 2014 time even more impressive was the fact McBeth, now 45, did so with a kidney functioning at 15 to 17 per cent, by his estimation.

“I was not feeling very good, but I had made it,” McBeth said.

On Sunday, McBeth – a detective with the Abbotsford Police Department’s domestic crimes unit – was back on the GranFondo course, but this time with a new kidney donated by a colleague seven months prior.

He completed the event with a time of 4:18:15 – more than half an hour better than last year, and good enough for 28th in his division (age 40 to 49) and 61st out of the 470 male participants.

McBeth has cycled for the past 20 or so years, competing in mountain biking, road racing, cyclo-

cross, triathlons and off-road triathlon events.

But he always did so while struggling with a hereditary genetic condition called polycystic kidney disease (PKD), a disorder that causes multiple cysts to form in the kidneys.

“There is not a lot you can do for the disease,” he explained. “The best options are to live a healthy lifestyle, watch your diet and don’t drink excess alcohol, that sort of stuff.

“I didn’t start to notice any decline in my health and my physical performance and competing until my mid 30s; that’s when the kidney decline really started to accelerate (and) by the time I was in my 40s, things were really started to become problematic,” he added.

Things began to go downhill about two years ago.

McBeth began to suffer high blood pressure, fatigue and lethargy. Cysts also began to grow on his kidneys, becoming so enlarged that it became harder to exercise because the cysts would push on his diaphragm, making it harder to take deep breaths.

He also suffered nausea, headaches and just generally not feeling well.

“Things sort of snowballed and once things go bad, they pick up and get bad quite fast.”

Back on his bike six weeks after kidney transplant From A15

Facing either dialysis or a transplant, McBeth found that none of his family members could

donate a kidney due to their history of PKD, while neither his wife Anne nor her family members were suitable

matches.

McBeth was encouraged by one of his sergeants to draft a letter and forward it through-

out the department.

A number of people were tested to see if they were a match, and one, Insp. Kevin Wright

– McBeth’s boss – was found to be a suitable donor.

That was last November. On Jan. 14,

the pair went in for surgery at St. Paul’s Hospital, and McBeth woke up the next morning already feel-

ing better.

“You could see it in his face right after the surgery,” Wright said.

“I could tell he looked healthier.”

Within five days, McBeth was home, and within six weeks, he was back riding his bike.

His recovery time was helped by the fact McBeth was younger, had a healthy lifestyle, and had an organ from a healthy, alive donor.

The 2015 Prospera Valley GranFondo ran Sunday, beginning and ending in Fort Langley, and looping through Abbotsford and over Sumas Mountain.

McBeth had already completed a 50-km mountain bike ride in May and a triathlon last month.

In addition to cycling, McBeth has also been spreading awareness about organ transplants and donations.

“It has been such a remarkable journey for me and you really see the impact it has on people and their lives,” he explained.

“You meet all these people who have gone through similar circumstances and what their journey has been. And because things have gone so well for me, I really hope to spread the word about organ donation and show people what is possible.”

During the GranFondo, McBeth wore a kit which featured the date of his transplant on one sleeve, and a donor ribbon with Wright’s initials on the other. It also boasted the logos for Donate Life and B.C. Transplant.

He doesn’t typically bring up his story unless someone asks him after seeing his kit.

“It is a real conversation starter,” he said McBeth wants to be a role model/ambassador for living donor organ transplants.

As part of his plan to spread awareness, McBeth, his wife, Wright and Wright’s wife plan on competing as a relay team at the Penticton Challenge in late August. They will set up a tent and banners and try to register more people for organ donation.

Funding for campus radio station

CHRISTMAS IN JULY

CIVL-FM receives $50,000 to help promote local artists CIVL-FM, the community-based campus radio station on the Abbotsford campus of the University of the Fraser Valley (UFV), has been awarded $50,000 for the implementation of the Fraser Valley Music Awards and Promotion Initiative.

These funds were made available by the Community Radio Fund of Canada (CRFC) under their Radiometres program, which aims to improve local programming, volunteer training and community members’ participation.

It’s not the first time the station has received funding from the CRFC; a total of $115,177 has been awarded over the past five years.

CRFC funding at CIVL has gone towards developing and sustaining local daily news content, operating its first ever fundraising drive, allowing UFV students to study where their fees go through survey statistical analysis and on-air discussion.

The station’s biggest grant until now, the Resource and Academic Development

and Integration on Campus (RADIO Campus) Project, helped UFV students earn credit for their academic courses through contributing directly to regular CIVL operations.

With the funds received this year, the station will focus exclusively on working with local independent artists of all types and backgrounds to help provide them with a platform to promote their work through a local show and broadcast live on CIVL Radio, where awards, performances and celebrity

appearances help provide recognition and an engaging and effective way to promote and celebrate local music.

It will also create a music compilation of Fraser Valley artists that will be circulated to promotional, media and broadcast entities across the country.

“This project has the potential to be the most impactful and recognizable initiative CIVL has ever been involved in on any scale,” said CIVL station manager Aaron Levy.

Homemade BBQ Sauces I find that one of the absolute joys of cooking is creating and playing around with different flavors and ingredients to bring a dish together. So to help you achieve success when you’re firing up the barbecue all summer long, here are a couple of our

favorite homemade barbecue sauces that we use all the time.

Please keep in mind that barbecue sauces are not marinades, they are a finishing sauce only. If applied to the meat at

the beginning of (or too early on during) the grilling process, the sugars in these sauces will burn.

Barbecue sauces are meant to be a finishing glaze on the meat: Apply during the very last part

He is neutered, 8 yrs. old and tan in colour. My cell phone is 250538-8858 and I live in Nelson but am on Salt Spring Island for a week. He has a collar on (unless it’s come off) that has his name on it and my cell phone number and my old Salt Spring Island address.

More than just cycling this summer Mark

Rushton On the

Other Hand As a long-time fan of the Tour de France, which completes its three-week race this weekend, it was neat to watch the Prospera Valley GranFondo riders file past my home last Sunday.

Unlike the Tour, however, which usually sees a few leaders followed in minutes by the massed peloton, the valley racers passed by in clumps and stragglers for hours. However, to ride 160 kilometres in 40 C temperatures, regardless of their individual speed, was a remarkable accomplishment for the B.C. racers.

The GranFondo began and ended in Fort Langley, tracing a route from the Fraser River to the U.S. border, east to the little Sumas Prairie community of Arnold and then back north over Sumas Mountain, west through Bradner, Mt. Lehman and Glenn Valley to The Fort.

Coupled with the main race was the Medio, a 90-km ride that avoided the mountain region.

A couple of friends were riding in that, and one said he achieved personal victory “just by finishing it.”

In the Tour de France, all the riders are professional, often earning remarkable salaries from their racing teams. The valley event, on the other hand, was made up of amateurs riding for the love of the sport, and regardless of their skill and conditioning levels, all earned my admiration for their endurance and perseverance.

Professional cycling, as anyone who follows sports knows, has been fraught with allegations of cheating both real, as in the case of Lance Armstrong, and imagined.

World Class

And this week, it seems, such allegations and suggestions of things not being above board have now played out in local politics.

The Conservative Party of Canada has just dumped Liv Grewal as the candidate for the new federal riding of Mission-Matsqui-Fraser Canyon.

Back in May following the candidate nomination vote, I wrote that things did not appear to pass the smell test. On Monday, following an apparently comprehensive review of the voting process and voter eligibility, the CPC agreed and turfed Mr. Grewal.

Which, of course, now brings us back to racing, for between now and Oct. 19, when the federal election occurs, there must be another nominating convention to choose a Conservative candidate to run in this riding.

Since we are rapidly running out of time, the event must occur during the next few weeks. I assume Brad Vis, who was a distant runner-up to Grewal in May, will again seek to recruit supporters, as I’m sure will a number of other yet-to-benamed contenders.

There was speculation back in the spring that potential “star candidate” Barry Penner, former Chilliwack MLA and environment minister, was being encouraged to come out of political retirement to challenge the nomination.

He declined, however, citing a desire to spend time with his very young family rather than spend months in Ottawa and many hours on the red eye commuting between the nation’s capital and home.

After Monday’s announcement, and this late in the game along with the need to have an experienced campaigner on the ground, I have to believe the CPC is back romancing Penner.

My guess is that this time around, the former MLA who is known for an uncanny ability to gain positive media attention, will say yes. markrushton@abbynews.com

Feds invest in manufacturer funding Thursday morning at Dynamic’s Progressive Way manufacturing facility.

The funding comes from Natural Resources Canada’s Investments in the Forest Industry Transformation program, which aims to help the forest sector become more economically competitive and environmentally sustainable.

“In addition to adding well-paying jobs and supporting the local economy, this project is an important step in fostering the creation of high-value products manufactured here in Abbotsford and across Canada,” Fast said in a press release.

Dynamic will be the first business in Canada to market the so-called “passivhaus” window system, which focuses on energy savings.

Heroes program offered APD teams up with fire rescue service

The Abbotsford Police Department and Abbotsford Fire Rescue Service have partnered this week with Big Brothers and Big Sisters to provide a Heroes Program for children aged seven to 15.

The partnership runs from Wednesday to Friday.

The majority of the participating children are on the waitlist for a Big Brother or Sister, and this initiative allows them to have positive interactions with adult role models and to participate in a variety of fun activities.

The Abbotsford Police Community Policing Office serves as home base for the program but most of the activities take place outdoors in parks and at other destination locations in the Fraser Valley.

For information on how to volunteer or support Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Fraser Valley, visit mentoringworks.ca.

MURRAY GM IS THE ONLY MU

AUTHORIZED GMC DEALER AUT IN A ABBOTSFORD & MISSION

OVER 30 STORES IN CANADA

There’s more to high performance sport than being in top physical condition and training for months at a time. There’s also mental conditioning.

Abbotsford sports psychologist Roger Friesen is currently at the Pan Am Games, supporting and cheering on several cyclists he works with, including the men’s and women’s team sprint racers, both of which sped to gold medals last week.

Friesen combines his teaching duties as an associate professor in the Kinesiology program at the University of the Fraser Valley with a thriving consultancy in sports psychology, helping athletes hone their mental game.

He has been working with FRIESEN members of the Canadian cycling team for years, helping them strive for peak performances.

“There are at least five components of performance: technical, physiological, team, mental, and emotional,” Friesen says. “My job is to help athletes maximize their performance by focusing on the mental and emotional realm.”

Friesen has been a sports psychology consultant for more than 20 years, working with athletes from a variety of sports.

“The psychological development of athletes has always fascinated me,” he says. “Why is an athlete brilliant one week and like a completely different person the next? Often it is a result of emotional stress or a lapse in mental toughness. If you can’t hold it together mentally, your talents can be wasted.”

Friesen has been working with road, track, and BMX athletes from the national cycling team for past three years as they prep for the Pan Am Games and the Olympic games in Rio next summer.

The focus of the psychological preparation depends on the individual athlete, their sport, and their priorities.

“The biggest hurdle facing the BMX riders is fear.

It’s a very intense competition and there is very real risk of crashing and injury, so the athletes have to learn to handle that fear.”

With track cycling, the challenge is living up to expectations.

“The women’s pursuit team is expected to win, so they have some big expectations to deal with.”

He joined UFV’s new Kinesiology and Physical Education program in 1995 after earning his master’s degree.

As part of his community service at UFV he works with members of the Cascade athletic teams, locating his office in the athletic department.

“My door is always open to our student athletes as individuals, and I also present seminars to them as teams and groups.”

Krack was also torn between which side of the sport she prefers, the promoting or bodybuilding.

“Both are such different entities,” says Krack. “With bodybuilding, there’s personal pressure. With promoting there’s more expectation around you.

“There’s more weighing on you to get things off without a hitch. Pro associations are watching you and tons of exhibitors.”

The expo will feature model searches, and a powerlifting meet, along with performances by Aaron and Jordan Pritchett.

Canada versus Argentina Huskers to open season

Abbotsford’s Steve Marshall and the Canadian men’s indoor volleyball team will face Argentina in the semifinals this afternoon (Friday) at the Pan Am Games.

The Canadians last took to the court against the U.S. Tuesday, winning 3-2 in sets, which helped them lock up the top spot in Pool B, granting them a bye in the quarterfinal round.

Argentina dominated the U.S. 3-0 in sets in their quarterfinal match on Wednesday to advance to the next round.

Canada and Argentina are no strang-

ers on the court. The two sides faced one another in FIVB World League action last month.

Marshall was outstanding, notching a team-high in points in two games versus the South American side.

However, overall, the Canadians were 1-3 against Argentina, losing 3-2, 3-1 and 3-2 in sets following a win in their opening meeting at the FIVB tournament.

The undefeated men’s side enters this fray with the best win-loss ratio by way of sets, with a 9-3 overall record across all matches at Pan Am.

The start of the Valley Huskers season is just around the corner and eight local players will be suiting up for the B.C. Football Conference team.

Defensive back Jason Ghag returns for his fourth GHAG season with the Huskers. Ghag played high school ball with W.J. Mouat. He is coming

off a solid season with 37 tackles, one interception and four pass deflections.

Another Huskers veteran and Abbotsford native, Gary Kasongo Lumeka, enters his fourth season with the team. Last season, the 5’8” fullback tallied 37 yards on 10 attempts in three games played.

Local product defensive back Daniel Mills will be returning for his second season with Valley.

Mills accumulated 18 tackles, two interceptions and three deflections last season. He was named

2014 Huskers Defensive Rookie of the Year.

In addition, defensive lineman Kyle Cummings is returning for his second season, along with receiver and punt returner Keenan Godden.

Defensive backs Gurtaj Bhangu and Cody Lawlor will also be making their debuts with the Huskers this year, along with 6’3” quarterback Noah Falconer.

The season opener is at Exhibition Field on July 25 at 7 p.m.

Cardinals claim eighth spot, will face top seed Twins Brandon KOSTINUK Abbotsford News

The Abbotsford Cardinals have a tough task ahead of them as they prepare for the opening round of the B.C. Premier Baseball League (BCPBL) postseason.

After three wins in the last five games, the Cardinals clinched the eighth and final playoff spot, but will now face the first-place North Shore Twins in a three-game series beginning Saturday.

Abbotsford finished 16 wins back from the regular season champion Twins, who enter the playoffs 8-2 in their last 10.

Cardinals head coach Corey Eckstein said the Twins’ pitching will be particularly challenging, with aces Braeden Toikka and Matteo Vincelli, finishing first and third, respectively, in wins during the regular season.

The Twins rotation also boasts Will McAffer, who was selected by the Major League Baseball’s Cincinnati Reds in this year’s draft and was named to the Junior National Team.

On the season, Abbotsford is 1-3

a no-hitter through seven innings, tallying 10 strikeouts.

The Cardinals managed six hits with Matthew Ponte going onefor-three, batting in two runs.

Tanner Rempel was the most consistent hitter, going two-for-three and batted in one run. Rempel finished with .345 batting average.

In game two, Abbotsford picked up the win by a two-run margin, managing seven hits in a game that ended 3-1.

John Lipp pitched the entire contest. Through seven innings he allowed just one run on three hits, with seven strikeouts.

Abbotsford also managed a win against third place Langley Blaze last Friday, after a five-run fourth inning propelled the Cardinals to a 6-3 victory.

Matthew Selinger pitched through six innings, allowing three runs on four hits, with 11 strikeouts on the night. Loewen closed the game out in the seventh.

The Cardinals will travel to Parkgate Park to play the Twins, July 25. First game starts at noon; game two begins at 2:30 p.m.

GET READY FOR SUMMER! STAY COOL & FRESH IS YOUR AC READY?

DID YOU KNOW?

Air and water can get into the A/C system which can reduce the efficiency of the system and can also lead to corrosion or fungus, mould and bacterial growth that is blown into the passenger area.

THIS IS WHAT WE CAN DO...

To complete the HVAC service a technician will clean out the air conditioning lines, evaporator and ventilator and then kill any bacteria mould or fungi. Then deodorize the entire A/C system and the vehicles interior. Finally, after a complete inspection for leaks and wear, the technician will measure and replenish the oil in the compressor.

The air inside your vehicle will be much cleaner and 4 to 5 degrees cooler, thanks to increased efficiency.

Then there’s the engine. Its humble 135 horsepower and 150 lb-ft of torque being produced from its 1.4L, MultiAir Turbo four-cylinder might look mediocre on paper, but it brings this car to life.

And of the three available engines offered, the base, naturally aspirated 1.4L MultiAir, the Turbo, or the Turbo from the Abarth version (160 horsepower and 170 lb-ft of torque), the 500 Turbo (middle child of engines) is my top pick.

It is spirited, peppy and makess driving fun. It’s enough horsepower too play with, but not enough to get into too much trouble.

Adding to the fun factor is w the introduction of an all-new uAisin heavy-duty six-speed auual lover to tomatic transmission. A manual the core, I quite liked the new addition to the fold. It also took the edge off in urban commuting.

And for the times when you want a little more gusto, there’s a “Sport” mode. You’ll find this magical button on the instrument panel. What it does is change the throttle mapping for improved engine responsiveness.

Hugh was an avid hiker, weight lifter, and healthy life enthusiast, who enjoyed his volunteer work at MCC and M2W2. He loved his family, theological debates and dogs; but most of all, he loved his Lord, Jesus Christ.

A memorial service will be held Tuesday, July 28 at 1:30 at the Cedar Valley Mennonite Church. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to Gospel for Asia.

It is with profound sadness we announce that Malcolm passed away after a courageous battle with pancreatic cancer. Malcolm is survived by his wife, Monica, his four children, Matthew (Angela), Daniel (Kylie), Nicole Davey (Chris) and James, and eight grandchildren. His mother, Jean Dickson, sister Dickie Thiessen, and brother Kirk as well as many relatives are also left to mourn Malcolm’s passing. Malcolm was predeceased by his father, Derek and his father-in-law in the last seven months. Malcolm was born at MSA hospital, and was always proud of his family heritage, growing up on the family dairy farm, and by the age of ten, driving the tractor and custom baling on many farms throughout Abbotsford.

After his graduation from Abbotsford Senior in 1975, Malcolm immediately entered the Heat & Frost Insulators journeyman program and in 1996, established his own company that operated with great success until his diagnosis in December. Throughout the years, he enjoyed coaching his children in soccer and fastball, playing on his slopitch team and RV’ing with friends and family. He was proud of the family home he built 27 years ago and in his final months of failing health, with pure determination he even planned and completed small projects for his hobby farm. He will be remembered for his immeasurable work ethic, as well as the courage and grace he displayed over the past seven months. The funeral service will be held on Tuesday, July 28 at 11:00, at St. James Catholic Church, 2777 Townline Rd. with a reception to follow at The Rancho, 35110 Delair Road, Abbotsford.

She graduated from Durham medical school in 1957; one of only a handful women in her class.

On July 14, 1958 she married John Albert Lennox, and together they served for nearly a decade in Ghana, Nigeria, and Ethiopia, and later in India and Nepal. John and Ruth were the first physicians in Chetwynd, BC, and helped to develop the first hospital there.

Ruth was also the first female doctor in Abbotsford, BC, and delivered hundreds of babies in her primary care practice.

Ottenbreit, C. Joan (nee Remphrey)

Mom passed away peacefully July 13, 2015 with Sharon, Becky and Amanda by her side. She has claimed the cloud that Dad has been holding for her! Together again.

Mom was born May 25, 1934 in Regina, Saskatchewan. In 1946 the family traveled to Vancouver where they resided for a year followed by a move to Victoria. In 1950, Mom met a good looking sailor boy who was to become her husband on September 5, 1953. The family moved to Aldergrove in 1966 and then to Abbotsford where they remained.

Dad passed away in 2004 and Mom has missed him very much.

In 1985, Mom and Dad decided to become snowbirds and headed out to find their winter home. They settled on Riverside Adventure Trails in Fort Mohave, Arizona. This was to be their second home for about 17 years. Much to Mom’s delight Sharon and Bob have followed in their footsteps and have found their winter home in the same RV park!

Mom was predeceased by her parents Al and Muriel Remphrey. She was much loved and her smile will be missed by her children, Sharon (Bob) and their daughter, Becky (Darrell), and their children Austyn and Logan, her son Ron (Teresa) and their children Jason, Derrick (Megan) and their children Karter and Cooper, and Ryan.

Also survived by her brother, Al Remphrey of Dallas, Texas and his family, Scott (Laurin) and their children Brian and Tara, Gerry (Kim) and their children, Kendall, Brock, Matt and Ryan, all of Texas. Also missing her will be her “other granddaughter” Amanda and her daughter Bella and special family friend, Ken Bradley.

Mom was lucky to have many cousins, nieces, nephews and extended family that all loved and respected her.

Mom spent the last months living with Sharon and Bob in their home. She loved her visits with her great-grandson Logan – “her little guy”, as she called him. He will miss his Nana and her slippers.

The family wishes to thank all those that supported them through these difficult times.

You know who you are. We love you all.

Thank you to the wonderful staff at the Mission Hospital – you are all angels.

A private graveside service was held as her ashes were placed beside Dad. Love you now and forever Mom.

President, Abbotsford Agrifair

WELCOME TO THE AGRIFAIR!

On behalf of the Board of Directors, management & staff of Abbotsford Agrifair, it is my great pleasure to welcome you to Agrifair 2015 – a long standing community tradition!

We are proud to be one of Abbotsford’s family summer activities.

Agrifair’s mission statement is to preserve Agrifair as a community event that celebrates our past and embraces our future through innovative fun, family events and education.

Our vision is to be an integral part of enriching family life in our diverse and inclusive community.

As we celebrate 105 years, we are pleased to produce an event that surpasses the expectations and satisfies the diverse interests of the public and at the same time provide affordable fun for the whole family! We are extremely excited about partnering with various groups and increasing our attendance once again!

Enjoy the spirit of friendly competition showcasing the excellence of agriculture we are all proud of.

Thank you to the City of Abbotsford, the Province of BC, our sponsors and volunteers who help create this four-day event that bridges the gap between ‘urbanites’ and ‘ruralites’.

Agrifair’s goal remains the same: to produce an event that surpasses the expectations and satisfies the diverse interests of the public with affordable fun for the whole family!

IT’S MORE THAN YOU THINK Summer fun, food, rodeo action and entertainment are just around the bend and plans are under way to deliver the most exciting experience ever this August long weekend at Abbotsford Agrifair.

West Coast Lumberjacks will entertain with their action-packed, competitive show.

You’ll cheer as they test their strength, speed and agility in a series of forestry challenges.

Check out the Cone Zone, featuring a gocart circuit with real road-side hazards. This is an educational go-cart track geared to pre-drivers.

Visit the Antique Farm Machinery display and Country Horse Classic showings. See lumber cut with a restored antique saw mill, the pulling power in the Draft Horse Demo competitions and the agility and

DOWNTOWN ABBOTSFORD

style in the Six-Horse Hitch competition.

Let your youngsters burn off steam in the Vancouver Tumblebus, a “gym on wheels” featuring a zip line and rock wall, trampoline, balance beam, rings, monkey bars and more.

Along with the usual rodeo events the Agrifair pro rodeo is featuring the fast and fun mini chuck wagon races this year.

Steeds of the metal variety will release their horse power. A “fight to the finish” as the Demolition Derby’s myriad 4-wheeled gladiators smash one another until one crippled wreck is left puttering among a sea of destruction. The show will roar into action Saturday, Sunday and Monday.

Show times are yet to be announced.

All weekend the stages will feature musical entertainment and top-notch talent begin-

ning Friday with the Valley Voices Vocal Competition Finals where fifteen young artists will compete. The winner will be announced Friday night.

The Battle of the Bands is also set to blast off Friday and Saturday. The finals will be held Monday.

Experience the “golden era of pop music” on Saturday night with the Ultimate Tribute to Fleetwood Mac by Dreams. Sunday evening Grammy-award winning Christian music artist, Laura Story, will take the stage after the opening act, Awake O Sleeper.

Check schedule for full listings of all entertainment. A different show every day!

It’s more than you think! Join us July 31 – August 3, 2015!

GUARANTEED FUN WITH FAIR FOUR-DAY PASS ONLY $15

MESSAGE FROM THE MAYOR On behalf of Abbotsford City Council, I’m proud to welcome you to the 2015 Abbotsford Agrifair.

MAYOR HENRY BRAUN City of Abbotsford

Agrifair has a rich tradition in Abbotsford, providing family fun to thousands in our community and those who come from afar. With interactive demonstrations, displays, competitions, rides, entertainment, not to mention the ‘Mighty Fraser Rodeo’, there is something for everyone to enjoy!

With so much to see and do at this year’s Agrifair, a weekend pass is the solution to all of your BC Day long weekend entertainment needs. For only $15, fairgoers will have all access to four days worth of festivities and family fun, performances and interactive attractions (excluding Midway). Most notably, this year’s lineup includes exclusive single-day events such as tribute to Fleetwood Mac, Laura Story, the three-day Demolition Derby, a two-day performance

by Midget Wrestlers and Valley Voices Vocal Competition Finals. With the four-day pass, you will be granted entry into every single one of these engaging attractions, creating a memorable and exciting weekend for children and adults alike.

Agrifair also provides our community with an excellent opportunity to showcase the agricultural heritage of Abbotsford. With the richest and most productive agricultural land in Canada located just outside of our city’s urban core, our community is certainly a hub for agriculture and agri-business. I’m very proud of this rich legacy, and also excited to support our entrepreneurial, innovative agricultural community moving us into the future.

To experience all that Agrifair has to offer, the four-day pass provides the best value, and is valid for any age, with free admission for children 10 and under. For more information on Agrifair events visit www.agrifair.ca.

Along with extending a welcome to all fair-goers, I’d like to thank each exhibitor, participant, sponsor and volunteer for making Agrifair a success.

Agrifair has been building summer memories for 105 years – so I’m certain you won’t want to miss the excitement at Agrifair 2015. With different events and shows every day, it’s definitely going to be a weekend to remember.

TOLL FREE 1.877.336.6156 / 604.859.1341 f. 604.854.1385 / info@bestwesternabbotsford.com Located 10 minutes from the Tradex, 3 minutes from the Abbotsford Entertainment & Sports Centre, 5 minutes north of the 24 hr Sumas border crossing to the U.S. & 10 minutes from downtown Abbotsford.

With farms off limits to visitors due to biosecurity protocols, the BC Chicken Growers’ Association, in partnership with the BC Broiler Hatching Egg Producers’ Association, has developed Poultry in Motion™, a mobile mini barn, in an effort to increase public awareness and educate consumers.

This fully equipped mini barn has been featured at fairs, schools and agriculture events around the province.

The first broiler stage is the chicks. These chicks are day old chicks from one of the local hatcheries. Broiler farmers want to make sure that the chicks are able to access the feed right away.

The trailer consists of three sections, showing two life stages of broilers, plus their parent stock – the breeders. Each section is set up as a very small-scale poultry barn, demonstrating how poultry farming is done in BC.

The third section of the trailer is the breeder hens. These birds produce the eggs that hatch into broiler chicks. The metal nest boxes are where the hens lay their eggs.

These eggs are collected at least two times a day.

The second broiler stage is the market age broilers. These broilers are ready to be shipped. Notice how the water lines have been raised as the birds grow.

SQUEALS OF FUN!

Do you know that Gieco commercial? Come on, the one with the pig going on a zip-line and the pig says “pure adrenaline”? Yeah that one! Well that pretty much sums up Agrifair’s midway rides!

SEEK & DESTROY AT THE DEMO DERBY

“Seek and destroy” is the name of this game as a mishmash of vehicles from big cars and light cars to minivans get ready to rev it up and fight for their lives in a mosh pit of chaos and destruction. The event will take place in the Captain Crunch Arena located in the parking lot in front of the Rotary Stadium beginning Saturday running through to Monday at Agrifair.

Saturday’s show will begin with “Best Looking Car”. Then the quarter midget

car demonstrations will get underway in which kids from ages 4 1/2 to 17 years will show you just how cool their sport is.

Mini stock racing, a motor sport allowing amateur racers to gain experience in the competitive racing world, will run full-speed-ahead Saturday, Sunday and Monday. Stock cars are previously street-driven cars, limited to only stock parts and components.

On Saturday there will be two shows.

The lighter of cars will be raced at 2:30pm followed by the demolition derby. The bigger cars will race at 7:00pm. On Sunday the light cars and minivans will race at 3:00pm followed by the demolition derby. The grand finale on Monday will showcase everything including the BIG cars and many other races and demolition.

Stay current on up-to-the-minute announcements at www.agrifair.ca and on Facebook.

West Coast Amusements is not like your regular carnival troop. West Coast Amusements’ is dedicated to being one of Canada’s leading traveling amusement (carnival) companies. WCA will consistently deliver the greatest entertainment for all ages, cost effectively, maintaining a safe, environmentally friendly, and fun service. West Coast Amusements was founded in 1962 by current President, “Bingo” Hauser, who has been in show business since the mid forties. Raised and educated in Brandon, Manitoba, Bingo started traveling with carnivals at a very early age and became well versed in the business by operating a number of rides and concessions. When he first went out on his own Bingo started an animal show, which is where the Lion in the WCA logo comes from. Bingo eventually sold the animals to zoos, bought a Merry-Go-Round and gradually built West Coast Amusements into the major Midway operation it is today.

BIG THINGS COME IN SMALL PACKAGES

2015 will be the 10th year for Miniature Chuckwagon Racing in British Columbia.

Alberta Miniature Chuckwagon Racing Association is a group of people who are involved with horses and rodeo. Racing the miniature chuckwagons has become a fun and exciting sport. Parades and rodeos keep us busy all summer. We have preformed for crowds all over Alberta including Vegreville, Cardston, Lethbridge, Medicine

Hat, Cochrane and the Calgary Stampede.

The chuckwagons are one-quarter the size of the professional chuckwagons. They are made of solid oak and weigh approximately...350lbs. The wheels are made from different wheelwrights but the rest of the wagon is hand built. The horses weigh approximately 250-275lbs and are less than 36 inches in height. Do not tell them they are little because they really believe they

are race horses. The association travels as a complete unit with drivers, barn help, , horse handlers, arena and camp help. It takes a large commitment and countless hours on part of the whole unit to bring the unique form of entertainment to you.

Penalties can be called for knocking over the barrels, cones and wagon interference.

The #1 concern of the association is safety of the horses, drivers and helpers.

You would never know by talking to Bill that he has the softest heart for his pigs & ducks. A big brawny man with the voice of someone who drank too much whisky - the biggest teddy bear you will meet. Watch as his pigs race around the track in hopes of the reward – behind the sceens a smooch from big Bill! The ducks are just as lucky - don’t let their flying feathers fool you. They know how to work the crowd. Don’t think for a minute their shenanigans aren’t planned for your entertainment! When Bill bellows “who wants to volunteer” you better be quick – its an experience you will never forget!

IT’S A JOY TO BE ON TV

One of the biggest days of Agrifair is Sunday. Management embraced the community of the Fraser Valley and created Worship in the Park on Sunday at the fair. On the community stage Jack Jackson opens Cowboy church at 10am with praise and worship. This year Bob & Alice Maryniuk from Joy TV’s “Above and Beyond Ministry” will follow Jack with a short service of testimony. Then get ready to enjoy the fair while you wait for the evening concert. The evening concert takes place in the openness of a ball diamond, people start spreading their blankets about 5pm.

Just as the sun starts to set, starting at 7pm the Praise 106.5 talent contest winner will open with Chilliwack’s own Awake O Sleeper. As twilight hits and the kids are still spinning around the grass, Laura Story will grace the stage at 8:45pm.

“The Agrifair, along with Columbia Cabinets-Countertops and Fraserway RV, are

very excited to present another Grammy award-winning Christian artist this summer,” Pamela Brenner exclaimed, referring to Laura Story, a popular contemporary Christian singer and songwriter. “It will be another entertaining evening of live music under the stars!”

Laura Story, 2012 Grammy Award winner for “Best Contemporary Christian Music Song” for Blessings, will close the night with her riveting collection of songs about worship when life gets tough; about the heart, the journey of life and God’s role in it. Story, who quickly ranked one of the few female Christian artists to reach the top of the singles chart after the song’s release, is no stranger to life’s struggles after her husband was diagnosed with a brain tumor. She reflects on her own experiences writing from a very intimate place to bring deep and inspiring lyrics and a heartfelt performance to her fans.

JACK JACKSON AND THE JRB In a country where traditional family values have been swept out the door, and where faith in Jesus Christ and respect for the attributes of God have been censored within our schools, the media, and in much of the arts and entertainment industry, it is refreshing to know that there is a Canadian ministry whom God has raised up as a light and an encouragement within the entertainment industry of our society.

the records of the “Country Music” legends of the 60s and the 70s. This music had a tremendous influence in shaping the vocal styles of this “New Country Gentleman”.

Although “country” in its nature, Jack and his team have something old and something new with music that attracts young and old listeners wherever they perform within a “Market Place” setting.

Jack’s music covers tunes that span 50 years of country music, enhanced also with his original and inspirational material. His warm smooth vocals will melt your heart during a ballad, inspire your soul during a gospel song, and set your feet to dancing with the new country sounds of today.

Jack Jackson grew up developing his entertainment skills listening to

The popularity of this “New Country Gentleman” has taken his music to Europe, with fans in England, Germany, Italy, Spain, Netherlands and the Orient.

Jack has charted hit singles in Europe as well as Canada.

JJ Harrison grew up in the small town of Okanogan located in Northern Washington State. It’s no surprise that he landed in his chosen profession. “I have always loved to perform and make people laugh...from the classroom to the arena”. Starting a Rodeo Clown career after eight years of teaching for Walla Walla public schools however isn’t the normal path. For JJ though, very little about him is normal. “I think I’m the only clown with a Masters degree.” It was tough to leave behind a steady job and benefits to pursue a dream but for JJ it was a risk worth taking. “I believe a Rodeo Clown has the power to create a

A BLAST FROM THE PAST

LIKE LEGO?

Summertime is a great time of year, with the focus on holidays and your annual fair. A fair isn’t complete without a tour through the past at the Pioneer Barn; take a walk down memory lane. Our passion is the preservation of historical equipment and household items and relaying how they operated and were used. We have played a small role with Agrifair since the early 80s and have continued to grow since then.

You can see many of our unique displays, for example, cream separating, which was a daily chore for many youngsters in the early days. You can participate in rope making, sheave toss, and watch an operating antique sawmill in action. There are also many antique tools on display in the building.

And the day would not be complete without having a cup of coffee and our famous freshly baked pie in the shade provided by our kitchen. So be sure to come and see our team of dedicated volunteers. We are easy to find, as we are the ones in the red t-shirts with “Pioneer Corner” on them.

Also, please enjoy many other events at our City in the Country’s community fair.

How would you like to have a job with LEGO and be called a “certified lego professional”? Well it’s an actual job and there are only 13 in the world and ONLY ONE in Canada! Robin Sather is the leader and veteran of the team. He has been collecting and playing with LEGO for more than 40 years. He has been active in the LEGO fan community for more than 20 years, even before the emergence of the internet, and was one of the first members of the Vancouver LEGO Club. He delights in the fact that he has never had a birthday or Christmas go by without receiving at least one LEGO gift from his loved ones! He enjoys all aspects of building, but especially likes developing castle, pirate, and other historically-themed creations.

Come to the Agrifair and meet Robin Sather, Certified Lego Professional.

Robin will be designing and building a mini chuckwagon in the interactive building.

Robin will be a busy fella – he will also be hosting “Build Games” which is new to Agrifair. Contestants will need to sign up to be part of the experience.

There will be various age categories.

Each participant will be given a bucket of LEGO, a timer will be set for 20 minutes - then “On your mark, get set, BUILD!“ you will need a very good
