Homeless numbers steady Outreach worker says he’s hopeful Matthew Claxton matthew.claxton@langleyadvancetimes.com
Langley made no headway in reducing total homelessness during the last three years, despite a supportive housing project that opened last year. The new Metro Vancouver Homeless Count was undertaken by a small army of volunteers on March 3 and 4 this year. In Langley, they found 209 homeless people, whether on the street, camping, or in homeless shelters such as the Salvation Army Gateway of Hope. Holland The total is only a slight increase from the 206 who were counted in 2017, the last year of the homelessness survey. Despite the fact that numbers aren’t going down, homelessness outreach worker Fraser Holland said the numbers give him hope. continued on page 6…

their investigation, and while he understands why, it is still frustrating. “The police say it’s in motion, but they’re not giving any information at all,” Aron related. “We’re still hopeful.” Grandfather Darrel Crimeni said it was an “emotional” day,
but he was encouraged by conversations with some of the teenagers who attended, that indicate the tragic death of his grandson is helping to raise awareness. “A couple said ‘it changed the conversations in our household about drugs’,” Darrel said. continued on page 20…

thorities and the hospice groups in various communities. The total budget is $8.5 million for the new Langley residence. The building will cost $7.38 million with the remainder for equipment and furnishings. The province, through Fraser Health and BC Housing, is providing $5 million while the hospice society has been fundraising its portion of $2.28 million. There’s also a $900,000 grant from the BC Centre for Palliative Care and the Township has waived municipal charges totalling $219,000. The society has raised the bulk of its contribution but continues to fundraise to help outfit and furnish the facility, according to hospice society executive director Carissa Halley. She added that the new, bigger residence will mean the society will do some navel gazing on how to move into the future. More patients in the hospice residence, for instance, could mean more demand for support services such as grief counselling for families. “It’s going to be an opportunity for growth for us,” she commented. “With the new residence, it’s a chance to look and evaluate.”
Friday car gatherings no more: RCMP Mall owners objected to the gathering Matthew Claxton matthew.claxton@langleyadvancetimes.com
An unofficial car show was popping up Friday evenings at the Langley Mall. (Mike Parker/Special to Langley Advance Times)
An informal gathering of car buffs on Fridays will no longer be allowed at the parking lot of the Langley Mall due to
COVID-19 concerns. The weekly meet ups, which have no central organizer, had been taking place in Surrey in the 2800-block 192nd Street, until early June when the RCMP set up blockades, citing a lack of social distancing and past irresponsible driving behaviours. The meet moved to the lot in front of the empty Army and Navy store in the 5500-block of 201st Street and was held there

through most of July. But last week, RCMP Cpl. Holly Largy posted a message on a fan page for participants in the meets. “Langley RCMP has been engaged by the mall ownership who have raised concerns your meeting is contrary to the Provincial Health Order, therefore your gathering will not be allowed to proceed this Friday,” Largy wrote. Richardt Scholz, a long-time
car enthusiast and Langley resident who produces the BC Classic and Custom Car show, was disappointed by the loss of a space. The Langley Mall site was ideal, he said. He and other long-time hot rodders warned the drivers to be on their best behaviour. He’s hoping the site can eventually become a host location for an organized car meet up, perhaps after the pandemic.

Animatronic T. rex went for $40,000 Ronan O’Doherty Black Press Media
Dino fans from across the world bid on life-sized animatronic dinosaurs at a Langley auction Thursday, Aug. 6. While many of the large models fetched thousands of dollars, the big seller was a Tyrannosaurus rex, which ended up fetching $40,000. Also going for big bucks was a 72-foot-long Brontosaurus, which sold for $26,000. Able Auctions president Jeremy Dodd said most of the dinosaurs sold in the range of $8,000 to $18,000, to a variety of businesses. A pair of Tyrannosaurus rex costumes, which included cameras and internal monitors so wearers can see where they’re going, went for $6,000 each. “We had zoos. We had museums. We had liquor stores, and we had restaurants bidding on these items,” he said.
LANGLEY DENTAL CARE CLINIC
Most of the animatronic dinosaurs sold for $8,000 to $18,000 each during last week’s virtual auction hosted by Able Auctions in Langley. (Langley Advance Times files) A significant number of the buyers were from Alberta. “We had one guy in Alberta who bought a dinosaur to put up as an exhibit in the small town he lives in,” Dodd added. “He just wanted to put up an exhibit that he thought his neighbours would like.” Even before the auction began, interest from around Drumheller – home of Canada’s Royal Tyrell Museum of Palaeontology – had been intense. In the end, the majority of lots went to Alberta buyers,
but there were several local buyers as well, Dodd said. While the prices were high and the buyers motivated, the unique nature of the auction meant there were fewer interested parties than for a typical Able Auction sale, said Dodd. “It’s a pretty tight buyer group,” said Dodd. There were 550 items total in the lot, which also included fossils, as well as lighting and sound equipment to show the creatures. The collection came from a bankrupt exhibitor.

In addition to Creek Stone, since the last count in 2017, Langley has gained an Intensive Case Management Team, and a number of locally based agencies including Starting Point, the Lookout Society,
Encompass’s Youth Hub, and the Lower Fraser Valley Aboriginal Society have all expanded or begun programs aimed at aiding the homeless, Holland said. He believes it’s having an impact. Holland noted that

Homeless outreach worker Fraser Holland spoke with Christine Johnstone during the March 3 and 4 homelessness count in Langley. (Langley Advance Times files) homelessness, she said. In addition, there’s still a need for more affordable housing in the community, she said. The provincial and federal governments are going to have to work with municipal governments and Metro Vancouver to start bringing the number of homeless down, said the mayor. “There’s no one quick fix.” Even without a
major increase, Langley still has the third-highest number of homeless people in Metro Vancouver, after Vancouver (2,095 people) and Surrey (644). Langley, Surrey, Burnaby, the North Shore, and Richmond all saw an increase since the 2017 count, while Vancouver, the Tri-Cities, White Rock, Ridge Meadows, New Westminster, and Delta saw small decreases.

region-wide, numbers were only up by 29 people compared to three years ago. With the situation more stable, he said there needs to be more of a “housing continuum” for people, one that catches them on the way down rather than just trying to help once they’ve fallen all the way to the street. Langley City Mayor Val van den Broek is worried that the homelessness situation might get worse due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which struck Canada just after the count was done. “COVID has changed everything, and not for the better,” van den Broek said. The economic downtown, along with a sharp increase in anxiety and mental health issues, could put more people in danger of

Parents split on school Some are eager, others fearful of school’s start
I’m kind of in the same boat. I want to see a plan. ALICIA REMPEL, DPAC PRESIDENT
Matthew Claxton matthew.claxton@langleyadvancetimes.com
Are parents eager to get their kids back into Langley schools, or fearful and determined to keep them home? So far, there’s no clear consensus among local parents said the president of the Langley District Parents Advisory Council (DPAC). “There’s just nothing super consistent about what parents are feeling,” said Alicia Rempel. Some parents are determined their children will go back into school, others are equally determined that it isn’t safe enough, Rempel said. On Tuesday, it was announced that the previous plan of returning B.C. students on Sept. 8 will be delayed. Students will now head back on Sept. 10 after a two-day orientation period
on new safety protocols for staff. Rempel said the local plan will have to be calibrated for Langley, which has about 23,000 students. “Obviously, our plan is going to look at lot different than something in Northern B.C.,” she said. DPAC is currently asking parents to come to them with questions or concerns so they can be brought to the district staff during the planning process for the return. Wider concerns around vulnerable family members are among those being raised. “In Langley we have lots of multi-generation homes, and it’s a real concern,” she said. Her own children are set to return to Grades 2, 4 and 7 this year, spanning elementary and middle schools. “I’m kind of in the same boat. I want to see a plan,”
she said. The provincial plan calls for students to return to class in “cohorts” of 60 students, teachers, and other staff for elementary grades, and up to 120 for high school aged students. Langley’s plan is to be released publicly to parents by Aug. 26. Langley School Board chair Megan Dykeman has children going into Grades 10 and 12, and said she understands how stressful it is to parents. When it comes to parental input, the board is listening to DPAC, but they have also received some letters directly from parents. The board has also been getting questions from Grade 12 students, who are particularly concerned about what will happen to their last year of high school.

Crack down on parties W
hen the first reports of spikes in COVID19 started in B.C. a few weeks ago, the blame was largely placed on private par-
ties. Too many people, most of them young, were getting together in houses or on boats, not distancing, not wearing masks, and generally ignoring all the advice that let this province get through the early months of the virus with fewer deaths than other jurisdictions. Now we seem to be in a dangerous new phase – entrepreneurs have decided to make a quick buck from COVID fatigue. In Surrey last week, a 40-year-old man was arrested and now faces criminal charges after he allegedly ran after-hours clubs in commercial and industrial areas. The RCMP claims he even broke into one of the sites to host the party. Fraser Health has linked at least one COVID exposure to a hookah lounge the man is believed to have operated. Meanwhile, we have a party bus headed from Langley into Vancouver with between a dozen and 20 partiers on board, depending on which account you read. Is it possible to put few enough people on a party bus that you could be within the letter of the law when it comes to distancing and safe bubbles? Possibly. Is it within the spirit of the rules that are still keeping us mostly safe? That is a lot more doubtful. Unfortunately, public disapproval alone is not going to stop any of this activity. We are in a delicate place right now. We want to bring back as much of our entertainment, restaurant, and sports economy as we safely can. Restaurants, bars, nightclubs, and arts venues are hurting badly. Langley’s loss of Gabby’s Country Cabaret is just one closure among many taking place across the country. But if the choice is between profit and public safety, we always have to come down on the side of safety. So far, we haven’t seen charges for criminal negligence against anyone organizing illicit or rule-breaking gatherings. That might be a bridge too far for investigators and Crown lawyers – but it shouldn’t be off the table entirely, either. But empowering WorkSafe BC and local bylaw officers to hand out hefty fines, to shut down sites, and to kick out crowds of people violating distancing guidelines, would have an immediate effect. Slapping five-figure fines on organizers would emphasize how important it is not to create the conditions for another superspreader event in B.C. – M.C.

never let the realities of nuclear warfare become more than just an un-alarming norm. At the same time, we saw what was Langley’s first official Pride event, albeit online, but still celebrated in the public eye. We’ve seen local concerns and dialogue happening on conversion therapy bans. We’ve seen an outpouring of donations from neighbours – and complete strangers – after residents have found themselves displaced from apartment fires. I’ve covered recent stories on people trying to extend a hand in overdose aid and COVID-19 fundraisers that don’t fade away, even half-a-year deep into the pandemic. When I stop to think how horrific and unthinkable Hiroshima and Nagasaki – and the entire Second World War – must have been and how gloomy the future looks in times or viruses and such overwhelming poverty and anger across the world – I can at least see that there is a call for peace. Sometimes it may be difficult to see – amidst the coronavirus fog and the bricklike social media wall – but the overarching theme in so many actions is that people want the best for each other. Peace, it would seem – even when it comes to atomic bombs – starts at home through our own actions and memories.

Fort take-out popular but polluting Dear Editor, As a property owner in Fort Langley and a daily walker, I and my fellow walkers have noticed a disturbing trend around our beautiful village. So much litter! The restaurants in our village are trying desperately to stay afloat and so are doing take out service. This is very popular with the locals and visitors. However, as a result

Let’s all work together and clean up our village. Noreen Brush, Fort Langley
Fire safety Recreation can resume safely is lacking Dear Editor, Re: [Fire decimates City condo building, Langley Advance Times, July 23] After reading how concerned the mayor and staff are for the residents of the condo fire, the bigger question arises as to why the City and Township still allow these buildings to be built without total fire protection top to bottom? Also all balcony exterior walls could have a two-hour fire rating, plus the soffits. All balconies should be covered by a dry sprinkler head and all attics sprinkler protected with a dry sprinkler system as well. Having spent 40 years in the fire protection field, there is only one reason why buildings are not totally covered – that is money. So, to let the developer off easy costs the tenants and renters their life savings and stress. John Klaboe, Brookswood

The Truth about Copper vs. Aluminum Wiring!
An RCMP officer left a South Langley property that was under investigation by the Clandestine Lab Enforcement and Response Team on Thursday, Aug. 6. (Matthew Claxton/Langley Advance Times)
If your home was built between 1960 and 1980, there is a good chance you may have aluminum wiring. If your lights flicker occasionally, or your outlets and switch plates are warm to the touch, you definitely have a cause for concern.
FACT: Copper wiring
conducts electricity better than aluminum.
Drug lab dismantled Emergency crews on scene as a precaution Joti Grewal and Sarah Grochowski Black Press Media
Police asked the public to avoid the 24800block of 21B Avenue in South Langley for part of last Thursday. In a morning Twitter post, Langley RCMP revealed that its Clandestine Lab Enforcement and Response Team were working to dismantle an illegal drug lab. More than a dozen vehicles were pulled up to the roadside near the property, including a large police van, two ambulances, a few marked RCMP cruisers, a Langley Township fire truck, and numerous unmarked vehicles.
First responders were on site as a precaution, police said. The chemicals on site were consistent with the manufacture of fentanyl, although that remains to be confirmed by further tests, said RCMP Cpl. Holly Largy. According to the BC RCMP website, “clandestine tablet production labs pose a risk of explosion, fire, skin, and air contamination caused by the toxicity of the substances stored and chemical reactions sparked by approximate and hazardous recipes.” According to BC Assessment, the site is a 5.1-acre property with a mobile home and a shed located on the property.
FACT: Copper wiring
expands and contracts less which means it is less likely to cause overheating, loose connections, arcing and melting, ultimately the #1 cause of electrical fires.
FACT: Homes with aluminum wiring are 55 times more likely to have a fire hazard condition present.
Obviously, replacing all the aluminum wire with copper wire is the best, worry free solution. But there is another option which Technical Safety BC recognizes as a safe and acceptable alternative to a complete home wiring replacement. We have frequently seen this repair attempted incorrectly, which means the homeowner has received no benefit for the effort or their investment, so having the work done to Code by a trained professional is critical. Our technicians are both skilled and experienced at this cost effective way of addressing your aluminum wiring problems and reducing the risk of fire and electrical problems in your home. Aside from the safety benefit, addressing this problem may even have a positive affect on your home’s resale value and homeowner’s insurance rate. We will provide you with a written quote before any work begins, so there are no unexpected surprises at the end of the job. Your complete satisfaction, all 100 % of it, is very important to us.
Your safety, security and peace of mind are always our priority. Get reliable & experienced electrical experts for all your troubleshooting, repair, renovations and installation needs, so the job is done right the first time!

Eyewitness Don Wagner, who lives across the street from the shop, said a neighbour banged on his door around 4 p.m. to alert him to the fire. “I looked across, and I could see the flames coming from over top of the roof,” Wagner recounted for the Langley Advance Times. “I just started running, because I knew Dennis [the owner] was home by himself and I figured he would be in peril there. So I figured, better go in get him out of there. I started screaming his name and sure enough, he was back there.” Wagner said the neighbour’s son got Dennis out of the shop, while Wagner used a

Traffic lines up at the new signals on 240th Street and 16th Avenue on Sunday, Aug. 2. New ICBC figures released on July 28, 2020, show the addition of three new traffic lights appears to have reduced crashes along the busy arterial. (Dan Ferguson/Langley Advance Times)
New signals reducing crashes Number of collisions on 16th Avenue are down Dan Ferguson and Sarah Growchowski news@langleyadvancetimes.com
New traffic signals on busy 16th Avenue in Langley have reduced crashes, ICBC statistics indicate. According to 2019 figures just released by the public insurance agency, there were fewer collisions at three intersections where lights were installed by the Township of Langley, at 240th Street, 232nd Street, and 208th Street. At the 240th Street intersection, the number dropped from 12 in 2018 to five in 2019, while the number of crashes at 232nd dropped from 12 to nine over the same period, and crashes at the 208th Street intersection went from four to three. Installed in late 2018, the new traffic lights were part of the 16th Avenue Corridor Improvements Project, which included pull-outs so police can safely pull vehicles over for enforcement and so slower farm vehicles could move out of the way of

More Than Three Decades Of Volunteerism Walnut Grove resident Anne Gosse fell in love with local parks more than 30 years ago. “I enjoy the parks and I go to almost all the parks,” the self-described “outdoors girl” says. Gosse explains she joined the Derby Reach Brae Island Regional Park Association (DRBIPA) so her grandchildren and others could also enjoy the parks. She worked tirelessly for years on the DRBIPA board of directors and continues to contribute as a volunteer. Her achievements include creating a viewing platform at the edge of the Langley bog – 70 acres of bog forest, 200 acres of mined bog, and two bog meadows – inside Derby Reach Regional Park. Gosse is also credited with instigating the annual Heritage Apple Day event. She has led guided bird walks for DRBIPA and is currently their social media volunteer. A recent association newsletter thanked her for “her passion and dedication to protecting and preserving green spaces in our community.” Gosse has also volunteered with the Campbell Valley Nature House (12 years), Langley Field Naturalists (17 years), and she used to be a member of the White Rock Field Naturalists (12 years). “I do it because i really like our local parks, especially our Metro parks.”

driving the current hot market in real estate. “There was no specific demographic that was buying or selling property,” he said. Extremely low interest rates may be a factor. One area of particular interest by buyers seems to be detached homes between $900,000 and $1.3 million, with a secondary suite. People who bought townhouses some years ago and are looking to move up to a house want a place with a “mortgage helper,” Rufh said. A rental suite can carry $150,000 to $200,000 of the mortgage. There has also been interest in homes with offices, since so many people have or still are working from home instead of heading into the office. But it doesn’t seem to be a deal breaker – buyers are happy to set up in a kitchen or spare bedroom, said Rufh. Right now, Rufh expects the current wave might level out through the autumn, but he’s already seeing increased interest in people moving to B.C. from other provinces because of how well this region handled the coronavirus pandemic.

Otter grows Co-op adds hospitality to alcohol business Sarah Grochowski Black Press Media
Otter Co-op is expanding its liquor division with three new B.C. locations – including its first brewery and pub. The Aldergrove-borne enterprise plans to convert Abbotsford’s Highwayman Liquor Store into a sixth Angry Otter Liquor location on Aug. 31. It will be one of the Co-op’s first-ever hospitality operations. The cooperative announced plans to break ground in Summerland with a fifth location – in place of Peacock’s Perch liquor store, which it recently purchased. Otter is also nearing a deal to purchase a North Vancouver tap house and brewery, the Hearthstone, which is owned by Nicholson the Springs Group of liquor stores. The Highwayman pub and brewery will retain their names. The current purchase date set for the Hearthstone Brewery is Sept. 1. Co-op CEO Jack Nicholson said the brewery acquisition gives the business an opportunity to complete the “full circle” of liquor production – starting with grain currently grown by Co-op farmers to the brewery processing them into Angry Otter beer and spirits. “We look forward to a future where we can have the ability for a Co-op brewery to manufacture private label beer and spirits, to be sold in our liquor stores,” he said.

Familiar store is back in town McFrugal’s reopening in Langley City in the former Army and Navy location Heather Colpitts heather.colpitts @langleyadvancetimes.com
McFrugal’s Discount Outlet is returning to Langley after a six year absence. The discount store will be opening in the former Army and Navy Department Store site in Langley Mall, 5501 204th St. McFrugal’s operated from 2000 to 2014 in an 8,000 square foot location on 56th Avenue where Farm Country Brewing is currently located. The return to the local marketplace brings a substantial increase in floor space at 63,000 square feet. The company that owns McFrugal’s also owns 62 Fields stores in small communities around Western Canada. “We felt there was a good market overall,” said Jason McDougall, the COO of Fields Holding Company (FHC). “It was Army and Navy’s best store. And we understand that community reasonably well.” The idea to return to Langley came when Army and Navy announced it was closing due to COVID-19. FHC is not only taking over the space of the former department store. “We bought a lot of Army Navy inventory from their stores closed,” he said. The plan is to offer some of what was so popular at Army and Navy, namely strong camping, fishing and outdoor sections, as well as mattress department, work wear and work boots, men’s, ladies and kids fashions, family footwear, house and home department, grocery, and toys. McFrugal’s stock comes from a variety of sources, including wholesalers, store closures, excess inventory, and even movie sets. “We’ve had whole fabric shops before,” McDougall added.… “It’s so varied, you never know from day to day.” The Aug. 31 opening date for the Langley location is ambitious. McDougall said it’s a lot of work getting a store this size ready to open.

There’s already been more than 400 pallets of merchandise brought in and that’s about half of what customers can expect to find when the doors open. “We’ve never opened a store this size,” he said. The opening comes months into the global pandemic that Army and Navy said forced it to close after more than a century in business. FHC purchased the Fields stores in 2012 and closed the Langley McFrugal’s to focus on the department stores. McDougall said FHC has more than 500 staff. The McFrugal’s Langley addition will mean another 20to 25 full and partThere’s no time jobs, including playbook. many former Army JASON and Navy MCDOUGALL staff who were put out of work with the chain’s closing. COVID-19 means that the layout of the new McFrugal’s had to be revamped, such as making wider aisles to allow for social distancing. FHC management and staff are having to figure out how to implement provincial COVID-19 protocols in a retail setting. “It’s unique, that’s for sure. There’s no playbook,” McDougall said. “We use common sense as much as possible.” FHC also operates the 38,000 square foot McFrugal’s outlet in North Surrey and another one in Thunder Bay, Ont. It opted to go with a McFrugal’s in Langley, versus a Fields store. “The customer generally still wants to buy deals, and it’s hard to do that kind of stuff online,” he said. McDougall explained it has to do with the different atmosphere of each operation. “It’s very different, McFrugals, how it operates,” he commented. “It’s more of a treasure hunt atmosphere at McFrugal’s.

Parade kicks off festival Organizers rejig jazz fest opening event Heather Colpitts heather.colpitts@langleyadvancetimes.com
The Fort Langley ‘Virtual’ Jazz and Arts Festival is holding a parade Saturday morning – safely. The festival, which holds its big virtual event Sept. 4 and 5, will stage a musical parade on a small stretch of Fort Langley’s main thoroughfare. The Mardi Gras strolling parade will be recorded and posted to help generate interest in the festival. Originally scheduled for noon, the parade has been moved to 10 a.m. after the Township and organizers conferred. “We agreed together it would make sense if we could start the parade earlier,” explained Karen Zukas, the festival executive director. Traditionally the festival is opened with the strolling parade but that’s not possible this year and so the organiz-
Township Councillor Patrina Arnason took part in the opening parade last year. (Langley Advance Times files) ers are recording the parade. The parade goes from the Fort Langley Community Hall north on Glover Road to the historic CN Station. She noted that the public will be asked to give the parade a wide berth, and suggested anyone interested in watching can do so safely distanced from the other side of the street. The parade will be going down the western sidewalk. A six-piece traditional jazz band, the RazzMaJazz Ensemble, and parade marshall Petrina Arnason will lead the walking parade. The public has a chance
to participate with the event starting at 10 a.m. Up to 50 people can sign up and are encouraged to dress in colourful Mardi Gras-style attire. Expect to see traditional Mardi Gras colours – purple (symbolizing justice), green (faith), and gold (power). “It’s really a joyful strolling parade that’s family friendly,” she explained. Participating public do not need any musical experience, nor dance experience. In the past, anyone who wanted could join in but this year the organizers are following coronavirus protocols that limit gatherings to 50 or fewer people. If participants are in the same bubble, they can stroll together, otherwise, social distancing is required. Organizers have created a list of rules. • Limited to 50 people • Require pre-registration to participate in the parade • Have a hand sanitizer station at staging area • Participants to stay in own bubble and ensure there is a safe zone around themselves • Maintain safe social distances between participants.

Some Madison Place tenants will be left without a thing to show of their former home if the building, which was the site of a ravaging July 17 fire, is uninhabitable. The ones that Murrayville pastor Paul Olson worries about most are the families with no insurance. “They’ll have nothing to go back to,” Olson mourned. “So we wanted to take in several families and help them in whatever they need.” Southridge Fellowship church is hosting a two-weekend Southridge Speedway event, starting Friday, Aug. 14, and Saturday, Aug. 15 – to round up donations from the community – while providing a socially distanced go-kart experience everyone can enjoy. “This summer is not normal for families. They are looking for something safe and fun to do,” said organizer Jonathon Grochowski. The church initially bought pedal go-karts from Ontario with a community mission

By donation, up to six people – ages three and older – can register for a race on tracks made up on church grounds at 22756 48th Ave. “It’s an hour and 20 minutes per group, led by a member of our pit crew,” Grochowski explained.
A staggered start time will ensure no overlapping between groups, he said. If well-received by the community, up to 125 people per weekend could race. COVID-19 safety measures will be implemented by volunteers – including sanitizing go-karts between use and fewer than 50 people on site.

Stay local, play local in your home-away-from-home on wheels! Discover what others already love about an RV getaway With international destinations off the summer calendar for most, and others preferring to avoid large centres even here at home, it comes as little surprise that RVing is enjoying a surge in popularity. And what new enthusiasts are discovering is what converts have loved about RVing for years – it really checks all the boxes when it comes to safe, fun summer travel: 1. Stay local, play local: We live in a beautiful part of the world with opportunities to explore mountains, lakes, beaches and deserts – spaces people travel from around the globe to see.

Because you can bring virtually everything with you, there’s little need to interact with others in the community you’re visiting, keeping them – and you – safer. “Your RV is much more than a room – it’s your kitchen, dining room, shower and washroom all in one,” notes Amanda Henschell, from Fraserway RV. And with everything from smaller trailers to grand, fully-appointed motorhomes, there’s a price and a floorplan to suit just about everyone! 3. It’s good for you. By enjoying the great outdoors, exploring nature and taking in some of the country’s most spectacular landscapes, you’re able to recharge and support your mental and physical health.

Not only do you have the peace of mind that comes from having 13 Fraserway RV dealerships across Canada, but all rentals and sales come with a crossCanada on-road support service, letting you travel with confidence. “I used to RV with my parents and grandparents, but working with Fraserway RV has definitely given me a new appreciation for having your home-away-from-home on wheels – you can go and literally take the kitchen sink,” Henschell says.

What others are saying, … I first met Joanne ten years ago when she sold my daughter a condo. I found her very pleasant to deal with. She has kept in touch over the years. When it came time to sell my daughter’s condo and my house, I called her because I had full confidence in her professional ability. She has been very helpful and willing to give extra attention to the details. She was always quick to respond to questions. It was a pleasure dealing with Joanne.

Both my new purchase and the sale of my home went smoothly and very quickly. Joanne was always quick to respond or follow up and was always professional and a pleasure to deal with. Thanks for a job well done!

I would highly recommend Joanne as a realtor. She is professional, offers expert advice, is very knowledgeable about the Langley area and helped us sell our property in 5 WEEKS. What I loved most about Joanne is her interpersonal communication skills - she always kept us in the loop, was easy to talk to and went above and beyond to follow up. A pleasure to work with this realtor.

Children learn lost art Postcards via snail mail bring colour to local seniors Sarah Grochowski Black Press Media
For the seven Aldergrove seniors receiving personalized messages from children in this community, what is soon to arrive in the mail will provide a glimpse back in time. United Way Lower Mainland (UWLM) has launched an Intergenerational Postcard Club, where handwritten correspondence will be the main mode of communication. Nine children arrived at the athletic park with a parent Thursday, Aug. 6 to decorate their first postcard to their older pen pal. “For many of them, it was their first time ever writing a postcard,” said Aldergrove organizer Val Hiebert, an United Way community builder. “Some of them did not know what a postcard was,” she remarked.
Families arrived at a picnic shelter full of newly purchased art kits, blank postcards, and postage stamps paid for by the non-profit. Young members decorated the front of the postcard with the artwork of their choosing.
Seven-year-old Mackenzie Cerf drew a rainbow overlooking a smiling bunny rabbit with two carrots at its side. “Some children told their pen pal about their pet, others let their new
friends know what they were feeling or all the fun things they did this summer,” Hiebert explained. Bringing back the lost art of snailmail was just one benefit of the pilot program, Hiebert said – the main one is battling seniors isolation during the COVID-19 pandemic. “Some of these seniors have been keeping their distance from people,” Hiebert added. “Even having a postcard connection can continue to build resilience here in Aldergrove – throughout the generations.” One senior, who moved in May, was so eager to be involved in the postcard project that she reached out from Vancouver. “My heart is still in Aldergrove,” she told the organizer. Hiebert let her join – “her heart is here,” she told Black Press Media.
Aldergrove sevenyear-old Mackenzie Cerf is taking part in a United Way – Lower Mainland initiative to connect kids with isolated seniors in the community during the COVID-19 pandemic. (United Way/ Special to Black Press Media)

Courts convert for pickleball Welcome to Safe Retirement Living
Several mornings each week, a team of dinkers hit the new racquet courts at Douglas Park to bang around a few balls, share some laughs, and get a bit of exercise. But for months now – as has been the case for many recreational groups – play was suspended due to COVID-19. On Monday, the sport of pickleball was reinvigorated in Langley City as Mayor Val van den Broek and recreation supervisor Karlo Tamondong participated in an official ribbon-cutting for eight new dedicated pickleball courts unveiled at the park, explained Wanda Cassidy, a Langley Area Pickleball Dinkers (LAPD) volunteer and player.
Each Independent Suite Includes: • Full kitchen including range, dishwasher, full fridge, granite counters • In-suite washer & dryer-no cross contamination • In-suite heating and air conditioning • Weekly housekeeping Langley City Mayor Val van den Broek officially opened the new pickleball courts at Douglas Park on Monday, Aug. 10. (Special to Advance Times) “We are so happy and grateful to the City of Langley for the dedicated pickleball courts now open in Douglas Park,” said Cassidy. With about 120 players,

The Harrisons, Langley’s Premier Retirement Living Communities
Langley’s Hope After Stroke continues to offer support even if programs for stroke survivors are suspended due to COVID-19. Marilyn Piticco, who would normally be facilitating programs in-person, is doing what she can for survivors over the phone. “It just makes me feel good to be doing something,” she said. “It’s just as much for me as it will be for them.” Piticco made the decision to suspend programs in March. “We don’t know whether or not we’ll be back even in January, like I have no idea when it would be safe to bring vulnerable people together in a space that isn’t six feet away… so it’s a great concern of mine,” she said. Piticco is working to meet
Before COVID-19 stroke survivors met for in-person programs offered by Hope After Stroke at the Walnut Grove Community Centre. (Marilyn Piticco/Special to Langley Advance Times) survivors using video conference, as an alternative. “When I say ‘come back’ they feel then they trust me that it’s a safe environment and [then what if] you have somebody next to you that has had a stroke and can’t get their hand up to their mouth quick enough and sneezes, what do you do?” she asked. She has considered Plexiglas dividers, but said it isn’t an option for survivors when many exercises are interactive. “I would not… feel com-
fortable bringing the group together,” she explained. And like many organizers, Piticco is wondering how the program will stay afloat financially, in the short term. “I have to look at the longevity of us even being able to fund the program,” she said. Hope After Stroke relies significantly on donations from the annual Langley Good Times Cruise-in – which was cancelled for 2020. Piticco is still available by phone at 604-882-4672.

Langley Pos-Abilities Society, a non-profit aiding people with mobility issues, is having trouble finding scooter donations to keep up with the local demand. COVID-19 has really impacted how Langley Pos-Abilities provides services by costing more to operate and decreasing abilities to raise funds, Paul Volchoff, vice-president and manager of the society’s personal assistive devices (PAD) program, said. “We have had to cancel five events this year due to COVID-19 – and possibly more if the virus is still on going this year – where groups of people cannot be together in the same place at the same time,â€? Volchoff said. Langley Pos-Abilities is a volunteer supported agency that helps improve the quality of life for people with disabilities, including those living with mobility issues, hearing loss, blindness, plus many other conditions requiring assistive devices, he explained. For the past 10 years, Langley Pos-Abilities has been providing refurbished used equipment to members of the community who could not get these devices any other way, as well as provide education, advocacy, accessibility audits, and ‌because of assistance to people with disabilities in COVID-19 our Langley.

Volchoff suggested becoming a society member or ambassador, board member, or equipment pick-up and drop-off volunteer for any people wishing to help. “Langley Pos-Abilities Society is a community within a community, providing a hand up rather than a hand-out,â€? Volchoff explained. “Please check out our website and see how you can provide a hand up in these challenging times we are facing with COVID-19.â€? A scrap metal recycling program where people can donate old tire rims and other materials was started earlier this year. Bins have been set at various automotive centres in Langley, so people can donate directly to Langley Pos-Abilities at www.pos-abilities.org. Fraser Valley Recycling also accepts clunker cars, with donations going to help fund new and refurbished scooters.

Giants season forges ahead Vancouver Giants are expecting to be back on the ice, competing, come early December. The G-Men, whose home ice is at the Langley Events Centre, shared news of a Western Hockey League (WHL) announcement indicating the 2020-21 regular season will commence Friday, Dec. 4. WHL commissioner Ron Robison said the date is contingent on approvals from the government and health authorities in six provincial/state jurisdictions of WHL territory. By adjusting the start date to early December, the WHL has additional time to work with government and health authorities, and to address key issues such as spectator capacities and border crossings, explained Robison.
Langley Rams, along with other Canadian junior football teams, will not be playing this coming season, due to COVID-19. (Facebook screengrab)

Bublé honoured Co-owner of the Langley-based Vancouver Giants and award winning artist Michael Bublé will be receiving the highest honour of the province, the Order of British Columbia. “The entire Vancouver Giants ownership group, management team, staff and players would like to congratulate Michael along with his wife Luisana and their three children: Noah, Elias and Vida for receiving this prestigious honour,” the team said in a statement.

With 50 to 100 people attending games, it would be hard not to drive clubs into massive debt.” Clubs are also experiencing issues with the cities in which they operate, he explained, noting that many fields are not open for use. “It’s unfortunate that 2020 isn’t a go from a Rams perspective, as we have a very strong team and it would have been a great year for our organization,” Matheson said. “But we understand the larger

For the players, they’re certainly disappointed – to say the least – but I think they understand the challenges.” He hopes to see ages extended next year so that players don’t lose eligibility. “My guess is that’s what we’ll be working on with the league next,” Matheson said. The local junior football team made it to the Canadian Bowl championships (on their home turf at McLeod Athletic Park) last November, only to fall to the Saskatoon Hilltops 11-6. Prior to that, the Rams earned their spot at the Canadian Bowl by winning the Cullen Cup with a 35-12 victory against the Langford Westshore Rebels.

Knocking out knotweed
Thursday, August 13, 2020 A39
STILL MAKING HISTORY IN
FORT LANGLEY
TWU tackles invasive species Dan Ferguson dan.ferguson@langleyadvancetimes.com
One of the few good things that can be said about knotweed is that it makes a pretty sweet pie. In fact, knotweed is one of the worst invasive plant species in B.C. It can punch through concrete, and threaten roads, parks, and building foundations in the community. The fast-growing plant was first imported to Canada from Asia and sold by local Langley nurseries for landscaping. A group of researchers at the Langley-based Trinity Western University (TWU) has joined an international effort to quell the spread of knotweed, working from their home labs during the pandemic. TWU students Hannah Merritt, Maria Goncharova, Vanessa Jones, and Virginia Oeggerli have received funding from Weed Science Society of America and a Trinity Western

Maria Goncharova is part of a team of researchers at TWU looking for ways to tackle knotweed (TWU/Special to Langley Advance Times). summer award. TWU’s knotweed study team is led by Dr. David Clements, a biology professor. So far, they’ve found that smaller patches of knotweed seedlings don’t grow well in shade, and that planting taller native plants that provide shade could be a way to help prevent knotweed spread. Goncharova, a biologist, has been running tests on how well knotweed seeds do in fast- to slow-moving streams.
We offer an easy solution. Fresh & pre-packed meals for your convenience
“We are figuring out what are the hot zones, along the river, that are most likely to be invaded,� Goncharova explained. Working at home allowed Merritt the ability to make multiple observations a day. “It’s nice to be able to have [my lab] in my backyard,� Merritt said. Additionally, the team has still been able to go out and look at knotweed species in the natural environment.

David Ian Manly
ELEL^EPHMb Loved Ones
Born April 27, 1945 to Mary Jane (Whitelaw) and Harrington Manly in Moosejaw, Sask. Passed away on July 26, 2020 at Langley Hospice after a brave battle with metastasized cancer. Dave was a 32 year veteran of the RCMP and Vancouver City Police serving in a career he loved. He was a deeply intelligent and sensitive police officer – advising recruits - “The purpose of police work is to make the machinery of society run smoother. Don’t ticket a mother going out in the middle of the night for baby formula because her car has an expired decal.� He will be dearly missed by his loving wife of 54 years, Lucienne (Lucy) and is buried next to his adored son Warren (1981-1988) at Langley Lawn Cemetery. Condolences may be offered at: www.hendersonslangleyfunerals.com If you so wish, in this time of Covid, doing 3 nice things for First Responders in Dave’s memory would be appreciated. Though nothing can bring back the hour We will grieve not, But instead take strength In what must remain behind.
If tears could build a stairway, and memories a lane, I’d walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

Alfred Cruthers March 3, 1941 - July 16, 2020
If Roses Grow in Heaven If Roses grow in Heaven, Lord please pick a bunch for me. Place them in my Mother’s arms and tell her they’re from me. Tell her I love her and miss her, and when she turns to smile, place a kiss upon her cheek and hold her for a while. Because remembering her is easy, I do it every day, But there’s an ache within my heart that will never go away.
Alfred Cruthers passed away peacefully in his sleep at Royal Columbian Hospital due to complications related to heart disease. Born in Vancouver, he spent much of his early life working as a baker. In 1963, he married Judy Fleming before ďŹ nally settling down in Langley in 1975. A kid at heart, Fred delighted in entertaining their children, Joan and David, as well as the four grandchildren and three greatgrandchildren that would follow. After 40 years with the Bakers and Confectioners Union, he retired, spending his later years travelling and assisting his wife until her death in 2019. He loved reading, driving, and applying ketchup to practically everything. Fred is survived by sisters Donna, Bev, and Sandra, and his brother, Doug. Please consider a donation to the Heart and Stroke Foundation or the Fraser Valley Regional Library.
Mildred (Milly) Grace Kinghorn
WARD, Kathleen Faye (Cheveldae) Passed away peacefully at Langley Hospice on July 29, 2020. Kathy was born on November 25, 1934 at the family farm near Pelly, Saskatchewan, the youngest child of Russian immigrants Nicholas and Anna Cheveldae. She had three older siblings: Anne, Bill and Mary. Kathy completed secretarial school and worked in a law oďŹƒce in Saskatoon before following her siblings to Flin Flon. Kathy and her husband Lew met and married in Flin Flon, Manitoba before moving their young family to Aldergrove BC in 1963. Kathy loved fashion and owned Jan’s Place, a womenswear shop in downtown Aldergrove, and also worked as a care aid with seniors and in the family construction business after raising her children. She enjoyed thrift stores and garage sales and was always happy to share her good ďŹ nds. Kathy (“Nanâ€?) loved the outdoors, spending time boating, camping, and gardening. She also enjoyed watching sports: baseball, hockey and especially curling. Nan attended many hockey, basketball and baseball games, horse shows and dance recitals
www.langleyadvancetimes.com
over the years. She also loved music and entertaining company. Nan was always very supportive and welcoming to those who joined her family and everyone was welcome in her home. She always had kind words and a listening ear. Nan was incredibly proud of her three children Randi, Terry (France) and Bob (Charlene), her grandchildren Sarah Kathleen (Erwin), Julie (Ed), Kaitlin (Stephanie), Shayla (Rob), Brody, Jared and Jacob, and her great grandsons, Sawyer and Alexander. Above all else, she adored the love of her life – her husband Lewis, to whom she was married for over 57 years and preceded her in death in 2014. Nan will be greatly missed by her family and friends, but her kindness, humour and love will live on within our hearts forever. A private Celebration of Life for immediate family will be held at a later date. Memorial donations can be made to the Langley Hospice Society. The family would like to thank Dr. Sheila Bowling for her ongoing care and the sta at the Langley Hospice for their support and compassion.
Mildred (Milly) Grace Kinghorn age 88 passed away peacefully on August 4 2020. Milly led a full and fruitful life bringing laughter and joy to those who knew her well. Her uncanny ability to laugh especially at herself was a trait that we all wish more people would adopt. Milly had many passions in her life but nothing brought her more joy than her grandchildren and being involved in shaping their lives. Milly was an avid traveller in her early years seeing many locations in Europe and other destinations around the world. However, her greatest love was travelling to see family and friends in Canada. Whether it was to see her family in Carleton Place Ontario where she grew up or the epic trips to Vancouver Island to share in birthday celebrations. Milly was an avid card player, bringing the game of Euchre out West for all of her family and friends to enjoy. Combining her loves of family, cards and the occasional beverage made for legendary memories that will never be forgotten. Milly had an uncanny knack for the English language and although her pronunciation of certain words may not be accepted by linguistics experts, they had the desired eect of bringing laughter and good times to all. Milly also had a love for food, in recent years most notably a good poutine would do the trick. Milly is survived by her loving kids, son Steve [Kristi] and daughter Lynn [John] and
grandchildren Samantha, Taylor, Jordan and Megan, siblings Marjorie, Elsie, Jack and Carol. She was predeceased by her husband Ron Kinghorn in January 2012. In lieu of owers donations may be made to the Heart and Stroke Foundation
