Mental health support program cut Program used to provide support for parents of kids with mental health challenges Cornelia Naylor staff reporter

A provincial non-profit that supports families of kids with mental health challenges has had to pull the plug on its parent support program in Burnaby and New

Westminster because of a lack of funding.

The F.O.R.C.E. Society for Kids’ Mental Health (FORCE), a West Vancouver-based organization, has funded a Parent in Residence, Danielle Dionne, in Burnaby and New West for a year-and-a-half.

Her role has been to empower parents of children and youth who struggle with mental health issues and to help them navigate the child and youth mental health system.

“Here’s an example,” director Christie

Big Sugar brings reggae-infused rock sounds to the Burnaby Blues & Roots Festival stage Jacob Zinn staff reporter

W

hen Toronto alt rockers Big Sugar broke up at the end of 2003, frontman Gordie Johnson felt it was time for the band to “tap out creatively.”

But his musical drive wasn’t gone – Johnson went on to form Texas cowboy metal trio Grady, join Saskatchewan hard rockers Wide Mouth Mason as their full-time bassist and tour in the gospel dub duo Sit Down, Servant!!

Likewise, his bandmates kept busy in the six-and-a-half-year interim, but somewhere in that break, the guys started coming up with more musical ideas that suited their former band of 16 years.

“The only way it was going to happen is if we were going to do some new music and be an actual band again,” said Johnson. “We only wanted to do it if it was going to be a living, breathing band.”

2010, but with a broader range of genres.

While blues and reggae had always been an element to their sound, it was seemingly brought out more than the traditional electric rock ‘n’ roll the band was known for in the ‘90s.

But to Johnson, there was no conscious decision to up the reggae style. It just came naturally.

“That’s just the sound of us with all of our friends in a room playing music acoustically,” he told the NOW. “We tend to not rehearse with the full electric, double-neck guitar presentation, we tend to do a more stripped down kind of thing.

“We just play the music we dig. It’s just music, man.”

Nonetheless, that relaxed, stripped-down style comes through on their latest record, Yardstyle, a soulful 13-track LP that’s laidback and smooth from the first track to the last. It also contains rerecorded versions of classic Big Sugar tunes like Turn the Lights On and 100 Cigarettes, which just might come out on the Burnaby Blues & Roots Festival main stage when the band headlines this Saturday.

“Every night’s different, man – we just play it the way we feel it,” said Johnson.

“That’s what keeps it interesting for us and our fans.

“I’ve got people who’ve seen us 30 times – I can’t expect them to keep coming to see me play if I just bring it exactly the same every night.”

Johnson’s also doing double duty at the fest, performing earlier in the day with Wide Mouth Mason on the Westwood stage in the afternoon, one of the many bands that’s a perfect fit for the festival’s chill atmosphere.

That said, Johnson promised a “full-on rock show” from Big Sugar, so things might get loud in Deer Lake Park. He’s bringing his double-neck Gibson, plugging it into a Marshall stack and turning it up to 11.

Big Sugar takes the main stage from 8:30 to 10 p.m., closing out the 15th annual festival.

Other performers include Matt Andersen, Bettye LaVette and Imelda May. For the full details about the day, check out www.burnabybluesfestival.com.

Learn streamkeeping Evergreen B.C. is encouraging Burnaby residents to trade in this weekend’s sand and sun for a chance to get their hands a little dirty.

The organization’s Uncover Your Creeks program, an initiative aimed at teaching people how to become watershed stewards, wraps up Saturday at Jim Lorimer Park.

Locals are taught streamkeeping basics, including invasive plant removal and water quality testing.

“We give them a general overview of how we in an urban watershed impact the health of creeks by the things we do every single day,” said Evergreen’s Sharon Johal.

“Everything from fertilizer use to washing your car on the street.”

Johal added the survival of these last remaining waterways is crucial to wildlife.

“We saw salmon come back to spawn last fall. It’s important we take care of it because it’s right in the middle of an industrial park, with a Home Depot and a SkyTrain station across the street.”

According to Johal, the free drop-in event has been a real success since it kicked off in June.

“Public awareness is on the rise. I get a lot of emails asking about the program,” she said. “When you see those people come out, they definitely take something away from it.”

Participants must wear closed-toed shoes, bring water and meet at the park just before 10 a.m. Snacks and tools will be provided. For more information and to register, visit www.uncoveryourcreeks.ca.

Evergreen is a national not-for-profit that was established in 1991.

Ministry of Children and Family Development for Parents in Residence in a number of B.C. communities, including Coquitlam, but the organization has never been able to secure funding for Burnaby and New Westminster.

“We had been able to have our Parent in Residence from another community cover off some of Burnaby and New West,” Anderson said, “but it wasn’t something that could be sustained without some supported funding.”

Local parents can still access a Parent in Residence by calling the Kelty Mental Health Resource Centre at B.C. Children’s Hospital in Vancouver, but Anderson said it’s not the same as having a parent in the community.

She said the situation points to a provincewide problem with child and youth mental health funding, which she called “deeply inadequate.”

“If, at a provincial level, you don’t have funds that go down to regions and communities, they’re impacted,” she said. “I think there’s funding issues across the board around child and youth mental health.”

Whiz kids enjoy a summer challenge

Twelve top Burnaby students selected for prestigious Shad Valley program Cornelia Naylor staff reporter

Some teens might not light up at the prospect of spending half their summer “immersed in the rewards and rigours of higher learning,” but 11 bright young Burnaby students sure did.

Last month, 12 local teens in grades 10 to 12 were among 620 students across Canada to participate in the Shad Valley science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) program.

Designed to push students’ intellectual, creative and leadership skills to the next level, the Waterloo, Ont.-based program places students at 12 host universities across the country.

For four-weeks, they live in dorms, take in science, engineering, technology and entrepreneurship workshops, and work in

teams to create a prototype of a product with an accompanying business plan.

The Burnaby participants – whose career aspirations after high school range from engineering to theoretical physics and medicine to business – said the experience was “life-changing” and nothing like regular school.

“From the very beginning they taught us that ‘failure is an option’ and failure is often crucial to success,” said Burnaby South student Marina Gonzalez, who attended Shad at Queen’s University in Ontario. “In school, we don’t have time to learn from our failures.”

Moscrop’s Caitlin Wu, another Queen’s “shad,” said much the same.

“It was OK to fail, because that meant that at least we tried something different, something that was outside the box,” she said. “A problem in society today is the lack of creativity in ideas – people play it safe.”

Wu said it took awhile to get out of that mindset herself.

“The most challenging part was learn-

Final count shows homelessness down in Burnaby The final report on the 2014 Homeless Count in the Metro Vancouver Region was released July 31 and confirmed the preliminary findings released in April, of Burnaby’s 58 homeless.

This figure confirms a decrease in the city’s homeless number, which was down from 78 in the

last count in 2011.

The report defines homeless as not having an expected place to stay, and not paying rent, for 30 days.

The report showed that 44 of the 58 homeless in Burnaby were unsheltered. Unsheltered is defined, primarily, as someone

with no physical shelter, such as sleeping in a park or couch surfing at someone else’s house.

Thirteen homeless people reported staying in emergency facilities, and one person was of no fixed address.

In Burnaby, 25 of the homeless had lived in the city 10 years or

more at the time of the survey. Of the eight people who were new to the city – having lived in the municipality less than one year – all said they came to Burnaby from another part of Canada. Four were from another part of Metro Vancouver, and one was from elsewhere in B.C. None came from

outside the country.

There were nine youth and children homeless on Burnaby streets.

Ten seniors and 13 First Nations people reported being homeless.

The count is done every three years and took place on March 12.

A budget crisis was averted, the incarceration rate fell and the crime rate plunged.

The union representing Canadian prison guards has also dug in its heels against the expansion.

Prisons have become more crowded and dangerous, for both prisoners and guards, despite a decade of declining crime rates.

Part of the reason is that rather than

focusing on rehabilitation or prevention, the ruling Conservatives favour longer sentences while chopping pay for working prisoners and reducing access to libraries.

The fact is, longer prison sentences have only ever resulted in higher recidivism rates.

Surely, the way to combat that trend is not to put more poor and poorly educated ex-cons on the street.

IN MY OPINION

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Government tactics questionable Dear Editor:

As a teacher in Burnaby I have a strong interest in seeing the strike/lockout resolved by September.

We all want to go back to school. But when the government offered its $40/day subsidy to parents, they threw gas on the fire. I have three questions for the Minister of Education: First, where will the qualified child-care workers and tutors come from? There probably isn’t even enough time or capacity to process the criminal record checks necessary for these tens of thousands of caregivers, even if there were places for them to work. Perhaps parents are to entrust their children to some strangers from Craigslist.

Secondly, will this money be clawed back from parents on income assistance? If so, they will not be able to afford any services for their children – and again we see the provincial government perpetuating child poverty. Also, will the subsidy be taxed back from higher income brackets?

Third, isn’t this plan bargaining in bad faith? The government is making plans to replace teachers the week before discussion resumes.

Fortunately, I know that British Columbians are not so foolish as to be bribed with their own money.

I urge the government to get back to negotiating, appoint a mediator and apply the educational resources to improving our system rather than to insulting teachers.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR City should do better Dear Editor:

On Mayne Island, we recycle pretty much everything. And at significant cost, because – hey folks, it’s an island!

So my daughter visits me from Burnaby this weekend, and tells me with this new system Burnaby no longer accepts soft plastic in its bins, and residents have to drive their plastic to some centre. And what this means, of course, is that not many people will drive to that centre, but will put their plastic in the garbage. And those who do just counteract the recycling value by using gas.

Great. More garbage, more gas emissions. This is better how? And funny, but I used to think of Burnaby as a progressive municipality.

Sharlene Lazin, via email

Why midwives matter Dear Editor:

Midwives bring pregnancy and birth back to the realm of the sacred/divine feminine – the shared capacity of the female body to carry and birth a child underwrites the relationship which as much a professional partnership as personal one. The relationship between two women – one professional, the other client – enriches the experience of the pregnancy and birth and provides better health outcomes as one is free to share intimate aches and pains. The naturalistic holistic approaches advocated by midwives – from acupuncture to doulas to homebirths to drug-free pain relief options – are now being backed by recent medical evidence as beneficial.

The midwifery approach of care – built on partnership, information, choice and close working relationship – worked for me as a single mother with a mental disorder. Suffering from bipolar disorder, the midwife was there at the hospital facilitating visits with my daughter who was then in foster care. She helped me make choices at a time when I was psychotic and para-

noid, and, once discharged, she continued the home visits till I was stable and had my daughter back in my care. The other medical team wrote me off as “inaccessible,” but the midwife was the only one I could trust and talk to.

We all know the savings – reduced C-sections, shorter or no hospitals stays, fewer epidurals etc. – but let us not miss the intangibles – the interpersonal connections, the empowering affirming experience, the close working partnership forged.

In a society that has lost connections, midwives bring back the humanness, the time to discuss things that matter, the hands-on care, the personal, the feminine, wrapped in compassionate professionalism.

The government should do everything it can to support midwives, to expand the number of trainees, to increase locum positions so that a work-life balance exists, boost benefits so that it can remain a viable profession where being a woman providing care to another woman matters.

Dear Editor:

Re: It’s Hancott vs. Corrigan in Burnaby mayor’s race, Burnaby NOW, Aug. 1.

Burnaby NOW, shame on you! Burnaby First announced its mayoral candidate, Daren Hancott, and it was on page 9.

This is front-page information. I am neutral in the civic elections until I gather all the information regarding all the parties. As a newspaper, I think it is your duty to engage the public about Burnaby’s election in an unbiased manner. Please get all the facts out regarding all the parties, so that the citizens of Burnaby can make an informed decisions. That requires giving both parties equal coverage. I want what is best for Burnaby, as does everyone else. So let’s start treating each party equally, and give the citizens of Burnaby the front page coverage of information they need to make an informed decision in November 2014.

collapse.

End the Fossils’ massive tax subsidies. Divert them to greener technologies and renewable energy.

Increase employment through a green jobs strategy, as the Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives has outlined. Shift B.C.’s commendable carbon tax to an ongoing revenue-neutral carbon tax-and-dividend system.

If the Harper government wants to turn Canada into an authoritarian petro-

state, throw it out in 2015.

Slow the breakneck pace of tar sands development so that land reclamation and carbon offsets can catch up, as MLA Andrew Weaver suggests. Encourage international adoption of European-style restrictions on trade in especially dirty oil. Support the growing international fossil fuel divestment movement, like the one that helped defeat South African apartheid, by dumping your own fossilheavy mutual funds. Some analysts say carbon industries are increasingly risky

investments anyhow.

Burnaby is a key chokepoint for exported oil sands bitumen. By stopping or delaying the Kinder Morgan pipeline, we can buy time and build coalitions for these more hopeful developments, overcoming the inevitable opposition of the fossils.

In doing so, we not only protect our city. We also exercise our responsibilities as global citizens.

Man arrested in SkyTrain stabbing Transit Police have arrested a New Westminster man in connection to a recent SkyTrain stabbing near the Edmonds station.

Police say Blaine Michael Alan Dunn, 26, was arrested at his home without incident. He has been charged with assault with a weapon and assault causing bodily harm.

Dunn appeared in court and was released on an undertaking with conditions to abstain from alcohol and illicit drugs, and to abide by an 11 p.m. to 6 a.m. curfew.

The stabbing occurred at 1:40 a.m. on July 27 on one of the last SkyTrains of the night, heading through Burnaby. A 40-year-old Surrey man, who was returning home with his girlfriend, got into an argument with two other men and a woman.

The Surrey man was stabbed in the arm before the group of three fled the train. While the other man and woman in the group were arrested, the third man got away. The victim was transported to hospital and received 15 stitches.

Anyone with information is asked to call Transit Police at 604515-8300 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).

RCMP still looking for DENTURE WEARERS! suspect in cyclist shooting COME IN AND RECEIVE A COMPLIMENTARY CONSULTATION AND DENTURE CARE PACKAGE FREE!

Jacob Zinn staff reporter

A Burnaby cyclist who was wounded in a latenight shooting during a 600-kilometre race through B.C. in June is calling on any witnesses to come forward with their information for the ongoing investigation.

Around 1 a.m. on June 1, Craig Premack was riding alone in the Cache Creek 600 along the Trans-Canada Highway when he was shot in the arm. As he started to bleed out, Premack used his pants as a tourniquet and propped himself up against the roadside barrier.

“For a moment, I was worried – I was wondering if this was the end,” he told reporters. “After the longest 20 minutes of my life, I could see the lights of what could only be my cycling friends.

“I’m extremely thankful to them for the aid and support they gave me while waiting for emergency personnel to arrive.”

Premack saw a darkcoloured vehicle drive away from a nearby pullout.

“At this point, there is nothing tying these incidents to Mr. Premack’s shooting, but our investigators are looking to identify these men so that we can eliminate them as potential suspects,” said Boettcher.

As a result of the shooting, Premack hasn’t been

medically cleared to get back on a bike, nor has he been able to return to work, which has burdened him financially.

“The shooting of Mr. Premack was a brazen, unprovoked, potentially deadly attack, and we’re very fortunate today to be talking about a shooting and not a homicide,” said Boettcher.

Anyone with information regarding the shooting or other incidents is asked to call Lytton RCMP at 250455-2225, or to remain anonymous, call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).

Preserving history: Archivist Nailisa Tanner at the Simon Fraser University library with some of the Archives of Lesbian Oral Testimony. Tanner will be presenting a lecture about the hidden stories of lesbian history as part of New West Pride. The lecture is set for Monday, Aug. 11 at 7 p.m.

Giving voice to a silent past Archives fills in important historical gaps by preserving stories of LGBT history Jennifer Thuncher staff reporter

For generations the engaging and important stories of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgendered men and women were not shared publicly in newspaper articles, magazines or the history books.

As part of the New West Pride Festival, the New Westminster Public Library is holding a free lecture on the relatively new Archives of Lesbian Oral Testimony – housed at Simon Fraser University on Burnaby Mountain – that aim to bring the long hidden stories of lesbians to light.

“I will be talking about why oral history is important and why in particular it is important to LGBT people,” said SFU archivist Nailisa Tanner, who will be pre-

“There were these really strict social codes about how you kind of projected what your sexual identity was in order to evade the notice of the police but make other queer people notice you,” she said.

In addition to talking about the collections, Tanner will be showing video clips and giving tips on how people can get started collecting stories of their own.

The seminar will be held at the main branch of the New Westminster Public Library at 716 Sixth Ave., on Monday, Aug. 11 at 7 p.m.

Shakespeare lessons inspire new memoir

Burnaby native’s book hits the shelves this coming week Anyone who’s gone through high school English knows what it’s like to learn Shakespeare as a teenager, but what about as an elementary school student?

Burnaby-born, Los Angeles-based teacher and author Mel Ryane started a Shakespeare Club for grades 3 to 6 students and has compiled a number of often hilarious stories into a memoir titled Teaching Will: What Shakespeare and 10 Kids Gave Me That Hollywood Couldn’t, coming

out this month.

“Teaching Will chronicles the first year of the Shakespeare Club, an after-school program created by Ryane as a volunteer at a local elementary school,” reads a post

by Ryane on her LinkedIn account. “Her romantic notions of teaching are shattered as she educates her unruly students about the life and works of William Shakespeare.

Together they experience both heartbreak and joy as they prepare to mount a production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream.”

Teaching Will hits bookstore shelves on Aug. 12.

Time to pull the trigger on getting a new car?

CLICK & CLACK TALK CARS Ray & Tom Magliozzi

Dear Tom and Ray: We have a 2005 Toyota Sienna with 52,500 miles on it (I don’t get out much, I know). I drive like an old lady, and it’s been a pretty low-maintenance vehicle until recently.

During its last checkup, we were told that it needs a new front differential seal, new rack-and-pinion assembly, new timing belt/water pump, new transmission pan gasket and new rear shocks, all to the tune of $4,800.

We still have two kids living at home, and a third who frequently accompanies us on vacation trips. My husband drives a Prius, and we both like it. It has always been our intention to replace the Sienna with the larger Prius V “when the time comes.”

Now we are trying to decide if the time has come. We talked to a local dealership about a car on the lot, one of the station-wagon-style Prius V’s. They offered us $7,000 on our car as is, in trade for the Prius V. Of course, we have no payments right now on the Sienna, and pretty low insurance rates. All of that would change with a new

car. Then again, we’d have a new, presumably very reliable car that gets great gas mileage. What to do, what to do? Thanks!

–Donna RAY: If ever a second opinion were called for, this would be the situation, Donna.

TOM: There are two things you want to find out, Donna. No. 1 is: How much of this work is actually necessary?

I’m not saying it’s not needed, but with only 52,000 miles on the car, and you driving like an old lady, it would surprise me if the rack and pinion were gone.

RAY: The timing belt and water pump should be done, just based on their age. And it’s possible you need the other stuff, too, but a second opinion would tell you for sure.

TOM: The second question is whether you’re being overcharged for whatever work you do need. Off the top of my head, being generous, I’d say the differential seals should cost you about $400, even if you do both of them.

RAY: The timing belt and water pump – again, being generous – should be no more than $1,000. The rack and pinion, if you need it, is another $1,000 or so.

The transmission pan gasket is $150. And let’s say

the rear shocks are $400.

That’s $3,000, not $4,800.

TOM: That’s if you actually need all that stuff. So take it to another mechanic and ask him to go over the whole vehicle from top to bottom, and see how his diagnosis and price match up with the dealer’s.

RAY: If you don’t have another mechanic you trust, go to mechanicsfiles. com and search using your ZIP code. That’s a database of great mechanics who have been personally recommended by our readers and listeners over the years. No one gets to

“buy” a good review on that site.

TOM: And if you really want the Prius V, you can still go ahead and get it.

But you might be better off doing the necessary work on the Sienna, for maybe half the amount these guys quoted you, and then sell-

ing the van yourself for $11,000 or $12,000.

RAY: But whatever your plans are for the Sienna, we’d recommend a second opinion before either trading it in or dropping five G’s on a 10-year-old car.

Students join the fight against hunger Theresa McManus staff reporter

A charity that helped some of the poorest people in Canada has received a helping hand from Burnaby high school students.

Henning Nielsen started One More Time out of a desire to help feed homeless people, never thinking it would be something he’d still be doing nine years later.

When Nielsen and his contingent of more than 100 volunteers served dinner in the Downtown Eastside of Vancouver on July 20, One More Time passed the milestone of having fed and/or clothed 50,000 people.

“This will be our 30th big feeding,” said Nielsen, a New Westminster resident.

“We do mini feedings all the time.”

One More Time, now a registered charity, raises money to put on free meals for the needy through social events such as dances, car washes, personal donations and by selling items at garage sales and flea markets. The next meal will largely be funded by a national philanthropic program.

A group of students at Cariboo Hill Secondary in Burnaby contacted One More Time, as they were interested in helping the organization and volunteering at some of its events. It was part of a philanthropy project, with the students ultimately winning.

“They ended up winning and got a $5,000 bursary for One More Time,” Nielsen said. “We are going to feed 3,500 people with

the $5,000 bursary. I want them to know it is appreciated.”

The Youth and Philanthropy Initiative seeks to engage young people in social change and empower them to participate in the growing of compassionate communities.

The organization’s website states that it has awarded grants valued at $6.7 million across Canada since it was started in one school in Toronto in 2002.

One More Time recently received the cheque from the Toskan Casale Foundation and the Youth Philanthropy Initiative thanking them for meeting with the students and sharing the “important” work it does.

“YPI would not – and could not – have the impact that it does without the experience of students being able to meet with you, without the opportunity to witness firsthand the incredible work you do, and how and where you do it,” said a letter from Julie Toskan-Casel, president of the Youth and Philanthropy Initiative. “We see the passion and the knowledge YPI students exude during each final presentation assembly we attend. We see the direct, personal, realworld involvement. … YPI is making a genuine impact on not only the education, but the very character of these young students.”

Some of the Cariboo Hill Secondary students helped serve food at the July 20 meal in the Downtown Eastside. Previously, the students got a firsthand look at life in Canada’s poorest

neighbourhood by visiting a crack house, a halfway house and other programs in the Downtown Eastside, helping out at a mini feeding of about 400 people and a larger feeding of about 3,000 people, and making sandwiches and distribut-

ing them to street people.

Students have written to Nielsen and One More Time thanking them for sharing their personal experiences and giving them a firsthand look at their activities – and showing them the “very scary” life that people live

on the street.

It’s a life that Nielsen has learned a lot about since he launched One More Time on a whim.

“Now it’s become my purpose,” he said. “I am not out to change the world. If I help one person, it makes a

difference.”

In addition to the students from Cariboo Hill, a group of students from Dr. Charles Best in Coquitlam also chose to work with One More Time as part of the Youth and Philanthropy Initiative program.

Movies in the square buy you a hotdog and drink. The outdoor pool is in Kensington Park, close to the corner of Hastings Street and Kensington Avenue.

HERE & NOW

Jennifer Moreau

t’s not too late to catch a free outdoor movie in the park. The City of Burnaby is screening family friendly films in Civic Square every Thursday evening this month, just outside the Bob Prittie Metrotown library branch.

Films start at 8:30 p.m. and run till 10 p.m.

Next up is Orz Boys on Aug. 14 (in Mandarin with subtitles), followed

by Frozen on Aug. 18, and Planes on Aug. 28. All of the movies are rated G, so bring the kids, pack a blanket and popcorn and make an evening of it.

Free swim

I’m truly amazed at how many fun things there are to do this summer that are totally free. This one is a yearly affair – the Cool Down @ Kensington free swim nights for youth aged 10 to 16. These sessions run Friday evenings, rain or shine, from 8 to 10 p.m., and a loonie will

Community fair next week

Don’t miss the Willingdon Community Fair on Thursday, Aug. 14.

The event is free, and there will be tons of fun activities for families, including crafts, free Zumba classes, martial arts demonstrations, live bands, games, face painting, a barbecue and police and firefighter displays.

The fair runs from 5 to 8 p.m., and this year marks the 50th anniversary for the community centre. The centre is at 1491 Carleton Ave.

Crooner’s crowd

Henry Thompson’s performance at Music in the Park was quite the hit, I am told.

Lindy McQueen from EPIC, the Edmonds residents’ group, dropped us a line to say about 250 people attended the July event – many had blankets and chairs, so it was clear they were coming for the show,

not just strolling by.

“It was so heartwarming, Jennifer. People were coming to be there; they weren’t just walking by and saying, ‘This looks interesting,’” Lindy said.

Among those were 10 or so friends and fans of Harry’s, the Burnaby senior known for his smooth voice and a cappella performances. Harry also called the NOW to sing another little tune for us in gratitude for the media coverage.

The next Music in the Park event is on Sunday, Aug. 31. (We don’t know who is performing yet, but all of the acts are local talent.) This will be the last in the musical series.

Thanks to the folks behind EPIC – Jeff Neufeld and Lindy and Jim McQueen – for organizing the summer music series.

I know EPIC would like to do it again next year and possibly expand, but the volunteers need more funding. Hopefully, we’ll see another round next summer.

Senior A Lakers take Game 1 of WLA lacrosse semifinal Tom Berridge

sports editor

Robert Church made the Burnaby Laker believers.

The crafty Laker righthander scored four times to lead Burnaby to a 10-5 victory over the Maple Ridge Burrards in Game 1 of the Western Lacrosse Association semifinal at the Bill Copeland Sports Centre on Wednesday.

Church scored a back-to-back pair in a 4-1 first period and one each in the next two periods, while Tyler Richards provided the backing in goal, kicking out 34 shots to post the win in goal.

“We kind of jumped on them early. (The Burrards) were not prepared for what we offered and we just kept pushing on them for the rest of the game,” said Richards. “It was definitely our most complete

game.”

Burnaby kept the pressure on for the remaining two periods, getting goals from Dane Stevens, with his second of the game, and Church, with his fourth, to start the second and third periods, respectively.

Stevens tied Church for top pointgetter with five points. Tyler Digby had a four-goal game, including Burnaby’s 8-3 goal late in the middle frame.

Shawn Dhaliwal gave the home team its biggest lead late in the contest, scoring on a clear run to the crease at the 18-minute mark of the period.

Casey Jackson garnered three points, all assists, while newcomer Chris O’Dougherty scored his first goal for the Lakers, shorthanded on a transition break with Pete

McFetridge in the second period.

The Lakers are currently 5-1 since an 8-6 loss at home to Victoria in July in what Richards called a pivotal point in the season for him and the team.

“From then to now is how To I expect myself to play,” he watch a video, said. scan After a strong finish to the with regular season, the Lakers Layar are hoping to build confidence as they move on in the playoffs.

“We have to play to our strengths and dictate what their offence will do,” added Richards. “It’s a new sense of belief in ourselves. We’re proving to ourselves that we can win at this level.”

Game 2 of the playoffs is Saturday in Maple Ridge. Game 3 is back at the Copeland centre on Monday.

Both games are 7:45 p.m. starts.
