Thursday was a much more interesting school day than usual for Kamren Loof-Cote. The 11-year-old arrived at H.D. Stafford Middle School in a stretch limousine, and sitting beside him and his friends was Marcus Trufant, an National Football League star who recorded 63 tackles and scored a defensive touchdown for the Seattle Seahawks last season. Kamren won some signed NFL merchandise for his family, a limousine ride to school, and a show-and-tell to remember by entering a national online sweepstakes. He joined Trufant for a special assembly at the school.

Police eye unusual donation A dead person’s remains, in an urn and accompanying baggie, have turned up at a local thrift store.

by Matthew Claxton mclaxton@langleyadvance.com

Langley RCMP are looking for the owner of an unusual piece of lost or stolen property: an urn and accompanying ashes.

The urn turned up on Feb. 23 at the Value Village in Langley City, dropped off as an anonymous donation, said Cpl. Holly Marks, spokesperson for the Langley Mounties.

The urn, with an extra bag of ashes, had no name, dates, identifying marks or serial numbers on it, Marks said.

Police aren’t certain whose remains are inside, and they don’t know if it was stolen or simply donated for unknown reasons.

Marks noted that it is not a typical donation.

Anyone looking for an urn and ashes can call the Langley RCMP at 604-532-3200.

This is not the first time an odd donation has come to police attention.

In 2010 police had to call in the bomb squad to defuse a live Second World War hand grenade that had been found in a box of veteran’s gear that was given to the Langley City branch of the Royal Canadian Legion.

A human skull also turned up in a box of items given to a local thrift store several years ago.

Fewer days, longer hours Langley is considering longer school days so kids spend fewer in class.

by Heather Colpitts hcolpitts@langleyadvance.com

Six fewer – but slightly longer – school days could save Langley School District up to $639,000.

But support staff are not happy, because they believe most of those savings will come out of their pockets.

The six-day reduction in the school calendar would add about 10 minutes each to the remaining days.

Secretary-treasurer Dave Green, speaking at a special meeting held Tuesday night to discuss the district’s budget, suggested the district give the community a chance to respond to the idea.

“Most negative impacts include things like day care [for students off the extra days],” he said, adding that the board may want to work with other local governments, to provide extra programming for children.

Most of the savings would come from six days’ less pay for CUPE local 1260 support staff: special education assistants, library workers, and secretaries.

The district could save more than $400,000 for support staff, $146,000 for substitute teachers, $41,000 for support staff replacements, and $36,370 in utilities and fuel.

“That’s troubling to think that the only way they think they can save money is on the backs of support staff,” CUPE local 1260 president Donna Mason told the Langley Advance.

She said it isn’t the first time the district has tinkered with the calendar. Less than a decade ago, it was amended for two years, to cut 11 days total. That included giving students a week off around Remembrance Day. “And it was only CUPE 1260 staff that was hit,” she said. “I feel betrayed.”

She said there was no accounting at the time of how much was actually saved.

Mason said she was offended that the district said support staff could apply for Employment Insurance sooner if there was a two-week spring break.

She said it shows a lack of understanding of support staff, many of whom don’t get enough hours to qualify for EI. The trustees accepted a staff report, which starts a consultation process on the idea. Any changes would take effect next September at the earliest.

Trustee Rod Ross asked staff for additional research. “It would be interesting to know what other districts have done,” he said.

Are wages for municipal workers too high?

That was being debated during Langley City budget discussions at the Feb. 21 council meeting when one resident lost consciousness while he was at the microphone calling on council to be more fiscally responsible with taxpayer money.

Langley City Mayor Peter Fassbender asked the elderly man if he was okay and when he gave a faint â&#x20AC;&#x153;noâ&#x20AC;?, two City staff rushed to grab him as he started to crumple to the floor.

City fire chief Rory Thompson as well as Fassbender and a few staff tended the man while other staff called in the emergency at about 9:24 p.m.

A City fire crew responded with about five minutes, providing first responder medical assistance before the B.C. Ambulance staff arrived shortly after.

Albert Jackman and Gregory Michael Barrett are scheduled to go on trial for the murder in less than two months.

Their second-degree murder trial is scheduled to begin on April 11 and

run for three weeks in New Westminster Court.

The Langley men were arrested in 2009 for the killing of Kyle Llewellyn Barber, a 24-year-old who was stabbed to death at a home on Fraser Highway in the Otter area.

Although both men were said by police to have

gang ties, the killing is not thought to have been a gang hit.

The murder came in the midst of several murders in and around Langley over a four-month period.

The trial is expected to be by jury, with jury selection scheduled for the end of March.

The investigation into the crash is ongoing. Police believe the truck had the right of way, as there was no stop sign on its route of travel, but they are still asking anyone who might have seen either vehicle driving before the crash to call them.

The 12-year-old boy killed in a collision Friday loved hockey, BMX bike racing, and his family.

Coleton Wayne Reid Nelson was a passenger in a car driven by an 18-year-old Calgary woman, which was struck by a garbage truck Friday morning.

The crash was at the corner of Robertson Crescent and 256th Street.

The driver remains in critical condition in hospital, said Cpl. Holly Marks of the Langley RCMP. Coleton’s older sister Alecsa passed along messages from her family to Coleton.

“My mom wants to say ‘You’ll always be my baby, my smudga, my bunny love.’” Alecsa wrote in a message sent through the Langley RCMP. Alecsa said, “I LOVE YOU, in our BIG way,” to her little brother, and Coleton’s oldest sister Chrystie, said “I love you to the moon and back my budga.”

Coleton’s father, who never missed a game, called his son “little man,” Alecsa wrote.

“Along with his hockey and his family, nothing meant more to him than his friends,” Alecsa wrote. “He loved to have people around him.

His two favorite places in the world were Hicks Lake and Osoyoos. He

Knowing errors The world is a difficult – and dangerous – place to understand. The more we figure out about this amazing place, the more we discover we have yet to learn.

To confuse the issue, the same science that attempts to unravel the manifold mysteries that encompass our earthly existence has provided a vast array of discoveries and inventions to make our lives more comfortable – but at the cost of greater risk.

For instance, science brought us the amazing internal combustion engine.

And the price has included pollution and consequences unimaginable to those who developed the gasoline-powered cars that gave us global atmospheric lead levels hundreds of times normal (with still undetermined health risks), cities enveloped in brown sulfur and nitrous oxides (now implicated in rising incidences of asthma), and huge increases in carbon oxides (fueling possibly catastrophic global climate change).

While some scientists work feverishly to correct errors made by our impulsive rush to transportation efficiency, others have created the communications revolution, building exponentially over the past few decades.

The remarkable rate of increase in communications technology virtually assures that more mistakes – mistakes that may not be discovered for decades.

Some folks believe an error lies in wireless technology and unknown consequences that “wifi” and other remote-service communications may have on living organisms – such as ourselves – at the cellular level.

So far, science suggests that such concerns are overblown. But science can only provide probabilities based on known information, and can’t definitively prove anything based on what we don’t know – and the amount we don’t know seems to grow at least as fast as our base of knowledge.

It behooves us to listen patiently – and thoughtfully – to those who express concerns about the unknown. It would not be the first time that those who are seen as scare-mongers today become recognized as visionary whistle-blowers tomorrow.

Road rage

Medical attention needed

Fort Langley

IGA moving into building process Dear Editor, The clean-up of the IGA site in Fort Langley is now well underway. The Lee family wishes to thank everyone who has offered encouragement and support after the devastating fire that consumed their family store last month.

Removal of the debris is complete, and the family is turning its attention to rebuilding. Their desire is to have the store back in business as soon as possible, but appreciate that plan-

ning, designing, and building will take some time.

The Lee family has engaged a builder and an architect to assist them through this process, and is pleased to announce that they have selected a Langley builder, Marcon Construction, together with architect Bryce Rositch.

“Marco Paolella of Marcon was responsible for building the IGA in the Thunderbird Village in Walnut Grove,” said Charlie Lee, “and he was great to work with

Transportation

Minister spouting hogwash Dear Editor, The Port Mann Bridge is part of the Trans-Canada Highway, and should therefore be, if not totally funded by the Federal Government, at least heavily subsidized.

Provincial transportation minister Shirley Bond should know that, and to try to tell us that we, the taxpayers, are responsible for it is hogwash.

Perhaps some of the $1.6 billion that we received from the federal government [to implement the HST] would have been better spent on the Port Mann Bridge, and not the Olympics, as I fear that is where a lot of the money went.

Debbie Atkinson, Langley

because of his attention to detail. I know that Marco’s firm with Bryce’s architectural experience can guide our family in making decisions about the redevelopment of the Fort Langley site.”

Ensuring our plans respect the heritage character of the village is important to us.

Robert Lee’s family purchased the Fort Supply Company, as the store was then called, in 1975.

His brother Peter said he has already received many suggestions from customers about things they would like to see included in the plans.

The Lee family is open to ideas and suggestions from the community regarding the re-development of the site which has frontage on three main streets: Glover Road, Mavis Avenue, and Church Street. A web site has been set up to keep their many customers upto-date on the rebuilding progress and also allow input on planning and design considerations.

Greater Vancouver Zoo

Take foot and mouth precautions

Dear Editor, The Greater Vancouver Zoo is dedicated to creating an educational environment that inspires appreciation and concern about wildlife and their well being. We have more than 600 different animals and 135 species on 120 acres in the beautiful Fraser Valley, and are committed to protecting the animals’ welfare and future viability.

Most recently, concerns have been raised with respect to travellers returning from countries affected by foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) outbreaks in Asia and Europe.

The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) maintains a list of all countries officially recognized by Canada as being free of FMD, and provides information on precautions travellers should take when returning from FMD-affected countries. Anyone who has been in a country where FMD has been detected should avoid going to a zoo or farm for 14 days. If access is absolutely required, this period may be reduced to a minimum of five days, following extensive personal disinfection.

“An outbreak of foot-and-mouth disease would have devastating impacts on animal

health and the economy,” said Dr. Brian Evans, chief veterinary officer and chief food safety officer for Canada. “We encourage the public to do their part to keep animals healthy by respecting the animal health measures in place at zoos and on farms, and by taking proper precautions when returning home from FMD-affected countries.”

Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) is a severe, highly contagious viral disease of cattle, sheep, and swine. It also affects goats, deer, bison, and other cloven-hoofed domestic and wild ruminants. An outbreak can spread by direct, indirect, and airborne transmission.

We strongly encourage anyone with questions and/or concerns about their recent travel experiences to contact the CFIA, or the Greater Vancouver Zoo before visiting the zoo. The Greater Vancouver Zoo is dedicated to providing a safe and healthy environment for all animals and our guests.

I just had enough time to shake my head and comment to my wife, when this fool came roaring back, this time southbound on Glover Road, slid sideways as he turned east on 216th/Crush Crescent, and then, no doubt retook his place (hopefully at the

Cruise-In posters

The Cruise-In committee is producing a new poster for the 2011 car show, but they’ve also worked with Langley artist Blair Howatt on a “closed for the season” poster commemorating the 2010 that didn’t happen.

The posters are set to be unveiled at the World of Wheels auto show at Tradex in Abbotsford running this weekend ( Feb. 25-27).

Copies will also be available at the Greater Langley Chamber of Commerce offices on Glover Road beginning in early March.

Both posters will be available for a minimum donation of $2 each – all money going to the CruiseIn’s charities of choice.

Cruise-In will be back for 2011 – but there get in, Sestito said. Initially, he suspects, would be a few mandatory changes. that may reduce participation.

I gotta tell you how much I like the new TD Canada Trust commercials with the old farts sitting outside the bank, all flustered, insisting it can’t be Sunday because the bank is open.

With my own self-diagnosed condition, “early onset sometimers,” I shared their confusion when I dropped in to make an appointment to discuss a car loan.

When the receptionist suggested a Sunday meeting, this long-time bank customer was quick to try correcting the young lady’s misspeak.

But my bad.

It turned out that Sunday, Feb. 13, was the launch of extended hours at some TD outlets – mine included – and I returned to my office that same day to find an email confirming those facts.

It turns out Langley’s WIllowbrook branch – the only TD in the community making the switch – joined about 300 other outlets around the country that made what I see as a progressive and probably necessary move. With this little move, TD is changing the landscape of retail banking. Opening seven days a week not only offers a further infusion of cash into the local economy – think about the extra jobs it creates.

And while part of me longs for the slower times (maybe not as far back as the horse-and-buggy era), realistically life is so chaotic for people nowadays, that I have to commend any business that reaches out to better meet the needs of its customers. The flexible hours is a smart response to its customers’ evolving needs.

TD research showed 64 per cent of British Columbians find it hard to get errands done Monday to Friday.

Additionally, 41 per cent run errands on weekends, so providing banking services when it suits customers is essential for so many of us who feel – whether it’s true or not – we’re busier than ever, juggling more work and family responsibilities.

Although online and mobile banking are convenient and on the rise, Canadians still need and want face-to-face advice and support in day-to-day banking, and this move facilitates that.

I expect we’ll see a lot of other banks following suit soon. continued on page A12…

Planning for the next Langley Good Times Cruise-In is well underway, according Riccardo Sestito.

The re-elected Cruise-In president is still amazed, however, how few people are aware that Langley’s premiere car show is back on.

“We need to get the word out to the public. We need to let everyone know the Cruise-In is on,” Sestito told the Langley Advance.

After a one-year hiatus, the Cruise-In is on again, and set for Saturday, Sept. 10.

Admittedly, the resurrected show is undergoing some significant changes.

But, Sestito said much of it is behind the scenes organization, and a few public efforts he hopes will end up drawing more cars and spectators as time goes on.

A year ago in January, the committee announced the car show was being cancelled for 2010 – and possibly beyond – as the group struggled with a number of issues such as public safety, a lack of volunteers, and bureaucratic red tape.

In September, immediately following what would have been the 2010 show date, an announcement was made that

Forum aims at preventing homelessness

…continued from page A11

Now continuing on about financial institutions, I want to bring attention to another innovative and, at the same time, compassionate undertaking that involves Langley-based Envision Financial.

Envision is hosting an event March 14 that is aimed at helping people on the verge of losing their homes.

Three rent banks have already been started in B.C. (Prince George, Surrey, and Abbotsford), intended to provide emergency loans or grants to individuals facing homelessness.

So this forum being held in Langley next month is intended to bring together more people who are working with struggling families – those interested in participating in this kind of rent assistant project.

This forum creates the opportunity to learn how rent banks operate and address the needs of a community.

Snow and Ice Control Program

The Township of Langley’s Snow and Ice Control Program is administered according to the municipality’s Snow and Ice Control Policy 05-732.

Services are carried out in priority order. Snow and ice control operations begin as conditions warrant. Plowing occurs when snow depth exceeds 100mm (4 inches) and conditions are continuous.

First Priority Arterial roads, major collector roads, bus routes, hilly areas, and school zones Serviced on a continuous basis as long as poor conditions exist

Second Priority Industrial and commercial roads and secondary residential through-roads between arterial and/or major collector roads Resources are only directed to second priority routes once first priority route conditions are under control. They are serviced during normal working hours, with minimal staff overtime as authorized.

If conditions deteriorate on any higher priority routes, resources are redirected to higher priority routes.

Third Priority A “condition based” response level applies to all remaining residential roads. Only when snow accumulations exceed 250mm (10 inches) in the centre of the travel portion of the road as measured by a Township Roads Superintendent can a single pass of a plow be made.

Serviced according to “condition based” criteria and during normal working hours only Sanding only will be done at intersections when conditions warrant.

If conditions deteriorate on any higher priority route, resources are redirected to higher priority routes.

A map displaying the snow and ice control priority routes is available on our website. Visit tol.ca and click on the Storm Response icon at the top right side of the main page.

“We have a great mix of returning directors and several people who are new to the board, which will create a great mix of new ideas and enthusiasm with the experience that the returning directors provide,” Konishi said.

At the 2011 inaugural meeting, Konishi was elected president, joined by vice-president John Aldag, secretary-treasurer Jim Dyck, pastpresident Duckworth; and five directors at large, Ted Bowman, Chris Cochand, Deana Grinnell, Karen Grunlund, and Malcolm Weatherston.

“We have a great team around the board table and we are all anxious to get moving on some of our goals and to get the input from our members regarding what they would like to see for this year,” said Konishi, who noted committee appointments are in the works.

public notice Snow and Ice Control: Public Safety Tips for Residents During winter snowstorms, municipal staff work diligently to deliver defined levels of service. Service is provided during severe and potentially dangerous weather conditions. Sometimes our best efforts can be delayed due to challenges beyond our control. Here are some ways you can help us get the job done: • Remove vehicles parked on the road in front of your property so that snowplows and sanders are able to complete work.

• Avoid driving or delay driving whenever possible until the snowfall slows or stops entirely. Reduced traffic provides municipal vehicles an opportunity to clear the roads.

• Do not attempt to stop municipal vehicles that are sanding, salting, or plowing. All requests for service must be made by calling 604.532.7300.

• Place garbage cans and recycling boxes on the sidewalk and/ or boulevard. Remove them as soon as possible after they are emptied. Garbage and recycling services can be impacted during severe storms.

• Place snow shoveled from your sidewalk and driveway onto your lawn to the right of the driveway. This will prevent plows from plowing snow back into your driveway.

• Avoid pushing shoveled snow onto the road. As plows push to the right, snow will be pushed back into your driveway. Public and vehicular safety is compromised when snow is pushed or shoveled onto roads.

• Clear snow from the sidewalk adjacent to your property as soon as possible. This is the responsibility of all property owners.

• Clear any curb-side catch basins in front of your property so that water produced by melting snow flows into the basins and not into your driveway or house.

• Children and pedestrians are advised to walk on the left side of the road, facing traffic, so they can see, hear, and avoid plow equipment and general oncoming traffic.

• Advise children against building snow structures in snowbanks at the side of roads as children may be injured by the equipment widening the travelled road lanes.

• Advise children against playing sports on the road when roads are being sanded and plowed. This causes hazards for municipal vehicle operators and other motorists as stopping distances increase with poor road conditions.

Private contractors providing snow clearing for parking lots shall ensure that all snow plowed on a private or public parking lot remains on the originating lot. At no time should the snow be pushed out onto a public roadway or boulevard.

Where snow cannot be plowed onto originating lot, snow must be removed to an approved dump site.

Clearing and maintaining all of our municipal roadways during a snow storm event takes time and planning to achieve the greatest benefits from our available resources. We appreciate your understanding, patience, and cooperation during this season.

lyse Maloway and Desiree Wallace have known each other for years, whether it’s through school or summer drama camp.

There’s an easy rapport and willingness to joke around.

But when the two Grade 12 students arrive in Doylesville, the feuding starts.

They portray two sisters at odds in For Old Times Sake, featuring Langley Secondary and H.D. Stafford students.

Maloway is the good girl Julie Jordon, who stayed in the small town to look after their mother until her death.

Wallace’s character Maria took on the world, becoming a fashion designer and in the process losing her humanity. After an affair with her married boss, she’s returning to Doylesville, for the town ball.

The production, written by teachers Chad Hendricks, Patti Thorpe, Brian Leonard, and Kathleen Kay, incorporates the music of Rodgers and Hammerstein as the two women work through their relationship.

The show includes some 49 songs. continued on A17…

eorge Pihan hadn’t set foot inside the building at 21488 Old Yale Rd. since 1956. That was the last time he worked at what was then Central Motors. Now it’s Langley Montessorri School. It had started out life as a blacksmith shop many years earlier and like so many evolved to serve a different kind of horsepower, vehicles.

Born in the County Line area, Pihan enjoyed the opportunity to tour the building that was part of the Historic Murrayville Bus Tour on Feb. 22.

“This is a wonderful outcome,” he said of the building being able to be used for the school.

He had worked for Central Motors from 1949 to 1956 when it was the dealers for International Trucks, McCormick Deering tractors, and Studebaker and Hillman cars, as well as Starline Barn stalls and agricultural equipment.

Such diversity of product lines was necessary because of the clientele – “there were lots of dairy farms at that time,” he explained.

Pihan recalls so much of his own history around Murrayville.

“We square danced in those days at Murrayville Hall,” he explained.

Working at the garage in Murrayville even gave him a chance to travel.

The garage was tasked with getting the first vehicle purchased by the newly created City of Langley, which broke off from the Township in 1955.

In charge of the operation by the garage, Pihan had to pick up the truck, which had been purchased from a dealership in Saskatchewan, not a pleasant place to go in February.

So he headed east on the Greyhound bus with $100 to cover fuel, food, and lodging.

When he arrived, winter got in the way and the auto dealer, who put Pihan up for a night, suggested he drive back through the northern United States. That’s when he had to make the $100 stretch even farther “I had to pay a fine,” he said.

Due to different licensing rules in Montana, Pihan was fined while driving through there.

An old photo of the truck still hangs on the wall of the Montessori school’s lobby.

Heather Colpitts/Langley Advance

To supply a school, the Langley School District put in a well at what is now Five Corners. Eventually Langley Township took over the artesian well, the first community water system.

A pumphouse was added in the late 1920s to supply the neighbourhood. It’s always had a trough, where people used to water horses. Today people stop by and fill containers, using it for drinking, cooking, and even fish tanks. The pumphouse, with its running tap, was one of the tour stops. (Left) George Pihan explained the workings of an old forge that has been preserved at the Langley Montessorri School. The site used to be a blacksmith shop and is now the school’s cloakroom.

For the man who has organized the historic bus tours for years and who is one of the community’s most knowledgeable history buffs, meeting Pihan for the first time was a treat and they were soon swapping tales.

Fred Pepin said it’s wonderful to meet people in the community who have lived here for many years and can add to the base of local historical information.

That kind of exchange is vital to preserve the history of how sites were used, not just the buildings themselves.

Pepin took his tour group to Sharon United Church, where he outlined years of turmoil over the historic church.

The oldest part was built in the 1890s. As congregation numbers ebbed and flowed in recent decades, successive groups had planned to expand and many suggested knocking down the

-)549'547.!5

old church to make way for a newer building.

That’s a common dilemma of churches and an issue for the local people involved in preserving old structures. Pepin explained that before the church could be torn down, congregation numbers declined and extra space wasn’t needed.

Finally when the church did expand, the new space was built to match the old church so the whole thing retains its heritage charm.

Pepin said many more people have come to realize that heritage buildings can be preserved and repurposed.

Many of the sites on the history tour show how buildings put up for a specific business live on as new endeavours and MORE allow Murrayville to show off PHOTOS its historical legacy.

ot just one, but two tribute bands – paying tribute to some of the best music of the 1970s – intend to blast out the speaker system at Cascades Casino’s Summit Theatre next Friday.

In a show dubbed Retromania, the bands of Dreams and Arrival will resurrect the magic of Fleetwood Mac and ABBA. Seven people make up the two bands that have travelled around the world performing.

Dream, The Ultimate Tribute To Fleetwood Mac, is a group of talented, diverse performers who came together in 2005 with a passion for the music of Fleetwood Mac, one of the top bands to grace the charts in the 1970s and ’80s Even today, 30-plus years later, you can still hear Fleetwood Mac’s music on radio stations around the world.

It was with that thought in mind that Dreams was born. The cast of Dreams takes great pride being able to replicate the Fleetwood Mac sound so closely that it’s difficult to tell the difference.

From the music to the costumes, Dreams performs all the hits, as does Arrival, which has played hundreds of sold out live shows, replicating the sound, characters, and stage experience of ABBA. “Arrival delivers with such incredible and enjoyable authenticity you feel that you are actually witnessing ABBA in concert,” said show promoter Rob Warwick.

Arrival and Dreams perform in the Summit Theatre at Cascades, 20393 Fraser Hwy. starting at 8 p.m. on March 4.

Tickets are $32.50, and available from the casino’s guest services or Ticketweb.ca.

Cathy Berbarian’s Stripsody is known for its unusual notation. The piece owes its title to the comic strip style that the score emulates. Consider it the “graphic novel” of the evening.

Rounding out the program are an excerpt from Hommage à T.S. Eliot by Sofia Gubaidulina, Récitation 3 by Georges Aperghis, and excerpts from Love Songs by Ana Sokolovich.

Tickets are $10 for adults and $5 for students. Go to www.twu.ca/samc for ticket ordering and more information.

Soprano Phoebe MacRae is in performance Feb. 28, offering dramatic works for unaccompanied voice.

Trinity Western University’s School of the Arts, Media and Culture (SMAC) is playing host to the B.C. talent in a show called Quests: Scenes for Solo Voice.

MacRae, a UBC alumna with a Master of Music (Opera), was instrumental in the selection of the repertoire.

“What inspires me about this collection of works are the pervasive themes of quest… for power, for love, for enjoyment,” reflected MacRae. “The material sheds light on the human condition with pieces chosen for their beauty, tragedy, comedy, and even absurdity. It has the potential both to challenge and confirm your concept of what music is.”

Nuns, kings, and comic strips inform this evening of unforgettable music.

“TWU has a long-standing commitment to guest artists,” said associate professor of Music Allan Thorpe. “In this concert we are also proud to premiere the work of SAMC composer David Squires.”

His piece Come Away, inspired by the Song of Solomon and originally written in 1977, has been revised with a new text especially for this performance.

The medieval work on the program is Ursula Antiphons by Saint Hildegard of Bingen, a nun who is one of the earliest women composers identified by name.

“You always need to do as well as you can and play as hard as you can,” he said. “You need to be always playing at your best no matter who you are playing.

Team awards

Troy Landreville/Langley Advance

Among the Chiefs’ winners named prior to last Friday’s game was Myers, who took home two trophies; the Joey Potskin Top Scorer, and for the second year in a row, the Fan Favourite.

Former Langley Township Mayor Kurt Alberts was on hand to present the Rookie of the Year award (named after Alberts) to Hansen.

One of the Chiefs ownership group, Eric Hasselmann, presented the Don Nicholls Sr. Community Player of the Year to two veteran Chiefs, Thompson and Gerling.

Saturday morning’s award banquet started off with the naming of the Century Pacific Foundry 3 Stars for the Year.

Goaltender Wyatt Galley (first star), Myers (second) and McBride (third) were all named.

• Dillon Scholten took home Crunch of the Year and was also named Top Defenceman; • For the first time the Ross Beebe Education Award, presented to the top scholastic player on the Chiefs, was given to a rookie, Mason Blacklock.

• The Volunteer of the Year award went to Rick Taron, who has been an integral part of the Chiefs since their arrival in Langley.

• Goaltending coach Joey Ali handed out the Most Improved Player award to defenceman Kevin Tuohy.

• The Bess & Cliff Brew Award for most dedicated player went to first year defenceman Trace Strahle.

• The Harmony Cup, presented to the team’s unsung hero, was awarded to Ius and Kody Dhaliwal.

The loftiest award, for Most Valuable Player, went to Gerling and Myers.

The Chiefs also acknowledged the players moving on next season. They are Tim Daly, Galley, Gerling, Ius, McBride, Myers, Thompson, Tuohy and Scholten, all of whom will take their talents to the professional or NCAA ranks.

Trinity Western setter Ben Ball and the Spartans completed a series sweep of Thompson Rivers with a three-set win last Friday at the Langley Events Centre.

University volleyball

TWU joins Final Four The Trinity Western University Spartans are moving on to the Canada West men’s volleyball Final Four after a twogame sweep of Thompson Rivers University over the weekend.

The Spartans wrapped up the series with a threeset sweep last Friday at the Langley Events Centre.

Set scores were 25-18, 25-21, and 25-20.

With Rudy Verhoeff’s 18 kills, and Josh Doornenbal’s 15 kills, leading the Spartans attack, TWU not only earned a spot in the Final Four in Edmonton but also earned a little redemption over TRU, as it was the WolfPack that knocked TWU out of the playoffs two years ago in a threematch series played at the David E. Enarson Gymnasium.

Trinity Western was superior in nearly every facet of the game, holding Kevin Tillie to eight kills while riding a hitting percentage of 40.4 per cent to a convincing win.

World Class Martial Arts athletes Braeden Szlabon and Mark Sheane were all smiles after winning their amateur MMA bouts last Friday.

With that mind set, Sheane is always thinking that he has trained as hard as he can, “so let’s go have some fun.”

At the 43-second mark into the second round, Sheane connected with a roundhouse kick to Shorter’s head.

Shorter crumbled to the mat and before Sheane could step in to inflict more damage, the referee stepped in to stop the bout.

“I was throwing a lot of low-level kicks,” Sheane recalled. “So he started to drop his front hand, so I looked low and went high and caught him.”

Sheane said seeing Shorter go down left him in “pure shock.”

He didn’t think he hit him very hard because he didn’t feel the connection on his foot.

“They always say the clean punch, you never feel it,” he said. “I thought I maybe slapped him in the face with my toes. I did not think I knocked him out. So when he went down and the ref jumped in, I stood there for two seconds thinking, ‘Really?’”

He has a huge amount of respect for Shorter, who agreed to take the bout even though Sheane didn’t make weight.

At 164 pounds, Sheane weighed nine pounds over the 155-pound lightweight limit.

“He took the fight even though he was lighter. He came out like a champion and did it that way,” said Sheane.

He added, “I was drained as much as he was from cutting, probably, but I didn’t use anything on the ground which I think would have been the only place I would have capitalized [on the weight advantage]. I didn’t take him down at all.”

The two plan for a rematch, and Sheane promises he’ll make weight when they meet again.

“He was a pure gentleman,” Sheane said, of his opponent from the Revolution Fight Team.

The two spoke after the bout. “I said ‘thank you for the opportunity,” Szlabon related, “and I wished him the best of luck in the future.”

Szlabon has found a home with MMA. When he started out, he wanted to test himself and, since his dad Jim used to box, combat sports runs through his veins.

“It’s always been a part of my life and something I wanted to do,” Szlabon said. “I wanted to try mixed martial arts.

Watching UFC, I wanted to see what it was really about.”

Joining Szlabon at Seeing Red was fellow World Class team member Mark Sheane, who owned a 2-0 amateur record going into his lightweight bout against Brandon Shorter.

Sheane admit he’s usually anxious before a bout, but the moment he steps into the cage, the anxiety melts away.

“As soon as I kick my shoes off and circle around the cage a little bit, I’m just ready to go,” he said.

“You rely on your training.

If you’re confident in yourself and you’re confident in your training, then you are either going to win or lose. It’s gotta be one or the other.”

Mark Sheane’s head kick felled Brandon Shorter, ending their bout at Seeing Red 2 – MMA Live in the Cage at the Red Robinson Show Theatre.

Braeden Szlabon caught Mike Borden in a guillotine and won via submission in their welterweight bout.

When the octagon door shut behind him last Friday in Coquitlam, Braeden Szlabon looked over at his opponent Mike Borden and thought, “This is really going to happen.

No going back now.”

After three years training at World Class Martial Arts on the Langley Bypass, the 18-year-old was about to get his first taste of amateur mixed martial arts (MMA) competition as part of the Seeing Red 2 – MMA Live in the Cage card at the Red Robinson Show Theatre.

Amateur MMA differs from professional in that elbow and knee strikes, standing or on the ground, are illegal according to BCMMAA rules.

“I had the butterflies, definitely,” said Szlabon, who competed in the 170-pound welterweight division. “I was a little nervous, but in the end I knew my training would come out so that kind of kept the nerves down a little bit.”

Thirty-four seconds after the two touched gloves to start the bout, it was over.

Szlabon won via guillotine.

In MMA terms, it means a choke hold.

Szlabon didn’t absorb any punches or kicks – as far as he could feel – and once, he said, Borden “left his neck exposed,” he seized the opportunity.

“I didn’t know what to think,” Szlabon said.

“It was over and I got up and it was just ‘Wow. It’s over.’ I felt happy and excited.”

Class 1 Truck Driver

MOUT, Johanna Maria (nee Uittenbogaard)

Born 13 February1927, Oegstgeest, Netherlands, died peacefully, 27 January 2011, Langley, B.C. It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved mother, grandmother, sister and friend.

Predeceased by her brothers Bram and Ru, and sister Marijtje. Survived by her brother Jan and sister Wil, both of the Netherlands. She is also survived by her children; Julie (Mike), Robert (Dechen) and Anita, and her five grandchildren; Julian, Dominic, Adrian, Jake and Sophia. Johanna was born the fifth of six children, to Jan and Gerarda Wilhelmina Uittenbogaard. She emigrated to Canada in 1954, passing through Pier 21 on Canada Day, and boarding the train from Halifax to Vancouver, where she began work as a nurse at the Royal Columbian Hospital. A beautiful, resourceful woman, she interrupted her nursing career to raise her three children. Johanna was wise, kind and generous. She raised her children with love and integrity. She returned to nursing at age 52, after successfully completing a refresher course. Subsequently Johanna renewed her faith and became very active with friends at the Christian Life Assembly Church. Forever curious, and fascinated by nature and the world around her, Johanna never lost her child-like wonder at God’s creation. She loved music and history. She delighted in nature and being outdoors. She enjoyed traveling and returning to her native Holland. An energetic and joyful spirit, she was ever present to her children and grandchildren. A resilient woman who faced many adversities in her life, she was an extraordinary inspiration to her family and friends. She was transparent in her faith, and reflected love and forgiveness. She will be missed in body, but forever present in spirit.

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight” ~ Proverbs 3:5 The family wishes to thank the dedicated staff and physicians at Marwood South, Langley Memorial Hospital.

Funeral arrangements are entrusted to Henderson’s Funeral Home, Langley. A memorial service will be held Friday, 4 March 2010, 11:00 am, at Living Waters Church, 9095 Glover Road, Fort Langley. In lieu of flowers, donations to waterwellsforafrica.org, or your charity of choice would be appreciated.

Aries March 21 - April 19: Be ambitious Sunday/ Monday – but don’t seek co-operation before Sunday eve. Happiness, friends, flirtations and entertainment, hopes and wishes (especially about money and partnership) fill Tuesday/Wednesday – or they would, if you weren’t so tired. But the glimmers of all these are true, and they’ll grow as March progresses. Soon, very soon, an “explosion” of gratifying and intriguing events will occur in this area of friends and hopes.

Retreat, rest, contemplate, plan and interact with government, institutions and “head office” – all is smooth, successful. A new plan emerges.

Taurus April 20-May 20: These weeks hold happiness – especially this Thursday to Saturday. A dream comes true, friends gather ‘round, optimism fills you, and the horizon lifts to exciting new prospects! (Don’t expect huge popularity before June: the friends you gather will tend to be old faithful ones, especially males.) Wisdom, gentle love, legal affairs, far travel, intellectual and cultural involvements draw you Sunday (caution) and Monday (sweet luck). Get ambitious Tuesday/Wednesday: these days offer a good, productive start to a weeks-long phase that can promote you, or bring praise from higher-ups.

Gemini May 21-June 20: Be ambitious these weeks, especially Thursday-Saturday. Higher-ups are impatient, critical – yet they might make a wish come true! Until June, you’re blessed with general good fortune, especially with friends, light romance, and in progressing toward a bright future. This is the time to wish and hope, Gemini! (A wish now gets answered in 16-28 months.) Mysteries, finances, sexual longings arise unluckily Sunday, luckily Monday. Intellectual, legal and travel affairs, gentle love, understanding and cultural involvements flow nicely Tuesday/Wednesday – they’ll be lucky all March.

Cancer June 21-July 22: March – and especially Thursday to Saturday this week – emphasizes gentle love and understanding, legal affairs, far travel, intellectual,cultural and educational matters.Because this is a time of love (and legalities) relationships loom significantly Sunday (unsuccessful, say no) and Monday (successful, say yes). Life’s depths, finances, mutually owned resources, intimacy, research, dreams, sexual urges – any or all glide in midweek through March. All’s smooth here, minor progress is easy. You might start a new travel, legal, publishing, or educational project Thursday onward.

Leo July 23-Aug. 22: The accent lies, all March, on mysteries, research, detective work, dreams, hidden meanings, and the “unseen” connections between people, intimacy, sexual urges, on finances, investments, settlements, funding, lifestyle changes, health factors and diagnosis. A lot to think about, but let your thinking be intuitive, let your subconscious take over, especially Thursday to Saturday, when these deep things are highlighted.A legal, educational or travel matter might take an unexpected turn.

Tackle chores Sunday/Monday. Agreements favoured Tuesday/Wednesday – affectionate meetings loom!

Virgo Aug. 23-Sept. 22: The weeks ahead feature exciting meetings, relationships, relocation possibilities, agreements and arguments, challenges and opportunities – this Thursday to Saturday highlights these, and might trigger a new bond or open a new door. (Yes, step through!) Romance, beauty, pleasure and exciting risk call Sunday (poor results) and Monday (good results). Take a chance, approach someone who attracts you. Tackle chores and health concerns Tuesday/Wednesday – good luck and grace affect this area now to late March. You might be inexplicably excited by someone Thursday – or by an investment.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Libra Sept. 23-Oct. 22: The emphasis lies on work, health, machinery, “necessity,” and the wellbeing of your dependents, all March, but especially this Thursday to Saturday, when a new project or duty might begin. A “help-mate” relationship might also start – if you want to settle for this rather than wait for or risk chasing a more romantic, passionate link, OK; just be aware – and honest. Focus on home, security Sunday/Monday. Romance, pleasure, speculation and a wee winning streak Tuesday/ Wednesday!

Scorpio Oct. 23-Nov. 21: Romance, joy, pleasure, charming children, creative surges and risk-taking urges, sports and games – these fill the weeks ahead, especially this Thursday to Saturday, when a new love (with a co-worker?) creative work or school program could begin. Do errands, communicate, handle paperwork and busy little tasks Sunday (careful, proceed slowly) and Monday (all’s well). Retreat from the bustling crowd Tuesday/ Wednesday – you need a bit of down-home time, nature, gardening, etc. – this area will be filled with sweetness for a few weeks. A love relationship will “get domestic” or end.

Sagittarius Nov. 22-Dec. 21: Your home, children, property, security and business foundations are emphasized over the three weeks ahead, especially this Thursday to Saturday, when a semi-important project could begin in these areas. (Semi-important because it might have an effect on future love/ romance, or aid your “creative space” or – at the very least, it will soak up the energy that’s making you a bit temperamental on the home front.)

However, do NOT buy (or move into) a new home now through April 1. (Long-term friction – and obstacles to love – would result.) Money caution Sunday – spend Monday.

Feb. 27 - Mar. 5 Capricorn Dec. 22-Jan. 19: The weeks ahead are not supremely important, so you can hang up the stress hat for awhile. Keep busy, do errands, paperwork, communicate, but just glide. Sunday presents you with the same combination of career obstacles and determination that will be around for almost two more years. Monday offers ambitious success. Money’s featured Tuesday/Wednesday – your luck rises in this area until late March. You can splurge on a luxury or two. Begin communicating about or (lightly) researching property now – you might act soon (late April best for the new, earlier for the old.)

Aquarius Jan. 20-Feb. 18: Chase money, buy/sell, seek new lucrative clients, deal with possessions for the few weeks ahead, especially this Thursday to Saturday, when a new project might begin in these areas. Memory, rote learning and sensual attractions are also favoured. Retreat, rest, contemplate what is permitted and what is not, Sunday/Monday. Applies to the law, ethics, etc. Your energy, charm and effectiveness bounce back late Monday night through Wednesday – start significant projects, seek favours, show yourself off. A subtle grace and attractiveness enters you now to late March. Others will notice!

Pisces Feb. 19-March 20: You’re the star of the show this month – especially Thursday to Saturday, when your energy, charisma, effectiveness, leadership qualities and decisiveness make you a winner! Don’t waste this time – use it to start important projects, to impress important people, and to tackle problems you’ve found daunting in the past. Your will power is at a two-year height, especially about money-making and possessions.Your sex appeal soars also, all month!

Gee, what could go wrong? Well, investments for one, sexual explorations, research, power-plays, collusion, secret actions – avoid these. timstephens@shaw.ca • Reading: 416-686-5014

Winter driving

Black ice sends cars slipping and sliding A cold, foggy morning sent motorists crashing into one another around Langley.

• Telegraph Trail and 216th Street, 8:20 a.m.

• 240th Street and River Road (rollover), no time given.

“The roads were very slick,” said Langley RCMP spokesperson Cpl. Holly Marks. “I was surprised myself at how fast people were driving.”

Tips from DriveBC for this time of the year include: • plan your route ahead of time to avoid any roads that could become dangerous; • learn and practise winter driving skills after a storm in an empty parking lot; • practise such manoeuvres as handling a skid; • keep at least four seconds dis-

Crime

Thieves break into 10 cars Police are looking for two men in their 20s who were spotted breaking into cars in Langley City on Feb. 19.

Early that morning, a witness called the RCMP to say that two men in the 5700 block of 200th Street were trying to break into cars. The witness said the duo was hiding behind a dumpster at the time.

When police arrived, they found one of the men sitting in a parked car in a nearby lot, said Cpl. Holly Marks. The man jumped out of the car and sprinted west, vaulting over a fence and splashing through a creek.

A police dog tracking team found a ball cap and running shoe, but not the suspect.

The car the man was sitting in had been broken into, but nothing was taken. The door lock was damaged, and police found 10 more cars in the area that had been broken into.

The first man is described as 24 or 25 years old, about 5’10”, with an average build. He was wearing a baseball cap and dark clothing.

The second man is about the same age, thin with short dark hair, and was seen wearing a black hoodie. He was carrying screwdrivers.

Plenty of playoff volleyball to come for Spartans With Trinity Western hosting the CIS national championship, all four teams going to the Final Four will automatically qualify for nationals.

••• The Spartans set themselves up for a series sweep with a three-set win over the WolfPack Feb. 17 at the LEC. TWU was sharp early and late, and then just got the job done via a frantic rally the middle.

TWU women’s volleyball Trinity Western will be going to the Canada West Final Four for the third year in a row after capping a twogame, opening-round playoff sweep of Regina with a 3-0 win last Friday at the Langley Events Centre.

Set scores were 25-16, 25-21, and 25-21.

For the second night in a row, the Spartans beat Regina in straight sets and, in doing so, ended the Cougars’

season, something Regina did to TWU in last year’s Canada West Final Four.

Despite only hitting 15.1 per cent – with Amy Leschied earning 12 kills, Kara Jansen Van Doorn getting 10 kills, and Lauren O’Reilly leading the team with 20 assists and 16 digs – TWU put itself one win away from earning a berth in nationals.

“We were running our systems,” said TWU coach Ryan Hofer, whose team needs to be amongst the top three at the Final Four weekend to go to nationals, which are to be held in Laval. “We needed to pass the ball well and make sure that the right people got the ball. Lauren [O’Reilly] did a great job of distributing the ball and making certain players touch the ball and then making Regina play the ball.”

continued from page A23 “I thought our offence was fantastic tonight,” TWU coach Ben Josephson said after the victory. “I thought our passing was really good. Ben [Ball] was a little sharper tonight. He got Rudy [Verhoeff] involved early, which opened up some other stuff. I thought Josh [Doornenbal] was great on the right side. Our two biggest high-end swingers were really clicking and I thought overall we clicked really well offensively.

Doornenbal led TWU with 10 digs while Ball had 39 assists and Dan Jansen Van Doorn and Verhoeff each had four blocks.

The Spartans will go into the Canada West Final Four as the third seed. The tournament will be held this weekend (Feb. 25-26) at the University of Alberta.
