The threshold has been crossed, at least as far as Langley’s Fight HST campaigners are concerned. Both the Langley and Fort LangleyAldergrove ridings have passed the 10 per cent mark, the minimum required to meet the requirement for a Citizens Initiative Petition. The Langley riding has actually passed 17 per cent, with more than 7,300 registered voters signing, said local organizer Shaun Sephton. The effort has always aimed to get 15 per cent, to provide a cushion beyond the minimum 10 per cent required. Sephton said the Langley effort will push on towards 20 per cent now. “When we hit 20, we’ll push to 25,” Sephton said. The Fort Langley-Aldergrove petition has also passed the 15 per cent mark.

Tour makes Fort stop Four guys; four causes; one bike. by Troy Landreville

tlandreville@langleyadvance.com

Members of the tandem tour team celebrated the first leg of their cross-country trek by tossing back a cold one (or two) during a fundraiser at The Fort Pub this past Wednesday night. At 10 a.m. on May 5, University of Victoria students Brent Seamone, Ben Miller, Jeff Belanger, and Ian Bevis departed from Victoria en route to Fort Langley as they kicked off a cycling trip across Canada aboard a quad tandem bicycle. The goal of the more than 6,000-kilometre journey scheduled to take two-and-ahalf months to complete: to raise funds and awareness for four causes close to each of the team members’ hearts: the Multiple Sclerosis Society of

Canada, the Friends of Redtail Society, the Canadian Diabetes Association, and the Canadian Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. Miller and Belanger are from Langley, Seamone is a Halifax native, and Bevis calls Vancouver home. The tandem tour team will be joined on the road by the support crew of Benjamin Gulliver and Langley’s Mat Murray, who will document the adventure and post weekly episodes, with the goal of putting together a documentary. “We all kind of came up with the idea together,” Seamone said. “Ben [Miller] and I, earlier in the year, started talking about doing a bike trip across Canada, just because he had a wedding to go to, and I’m from Halifax, so we wanted to return to the East Coast.” The two pals decided if they cycled for a charity, it would provide some positive motivation/reinforcement for the trip.

Seamone and Miller then hatched a plan to make their fundraiser unique. “So we decided to get this quad tandem bike built,” Seamone explained. “We came into the motto that if there are four guys who are going to drive this quad tandem, if we got two other guys on board, everyone [would bring] their own cause for it – four guys; four causes; one bike.” To donate for the tour, visit: www.thetandemtour.com, and click on the “Donate” link.

Couple takes shelter reins Two new commanding officers will take over at the Gateway of Hope just after Canada Day.

by Matthew Claxton

mclaxton@langleyadvance.com

The Gateway of Hope will have new leadership starting in two months, with a Salvation Army couple taking the reins. Majors James and Gwen Hagglund will transfer from Alberta to take command on July 2, from interim manager Major George Perkin. The Hagglunds have most recently worked in Medicine Hat, Alta., where they have already run an emergency shelter and transitional housing operation. This will be quite similar to what they’ve done before, said James Hagglund. “I’m excited about that,” he said of the new posting. The first thing the couple will do after the move is see what groundwork has been laid, then build on that, he said. Connecting with stakeholders in the community will be key, he said. The Gateway of Hope has been run on an interim basis by Perkin since the sudden departure of Envoy Gary Johnson last fall. Johnson took medical leave after a dispute over staffing with his superiors. While Johnson was instrumental in creating the Gateway, he never ran it, leaving just before its official opening. The Hagglunds have a 23year history of working with the Salvation Army, much of that spent working in shelters and rehabilitation centres. Their past postings have included work with addiction and rehab centres in Saskatchewan, work at the Vancouver Harbour Light shelter, and as commanding officers in Medicine Hat.

Traffic

Cause of fatal weekend crash not yet known by Matthew Claxton

mclaxton@langleyadvance.com

A Surrey man died on Saturday in a crash in a wooded area near the municipal border with Langley. The 26-year-old victim was

driving home in a white Honda, apparently heading south on 192nd Street. At the T-shaped intersection where 192nd meets 16th Avenue, the car crashed into a ravine. The victim was killed in the accident.

Because of the wooded and steep terrain, the crash wasn’t noticed right away. When the victim failed to return home, his family reported him missing and set out to retrace his steps, according to Surrey RCMP.

Chelsea Wildeboer is too young to speak, beyond happy gurgles, and her outfits have feet sewn into them. But at 11-and-one-half months of age, she’s getting used to wearing hearing aids. For the past two years, B.C. has been testing newborns. Chelsea failed the test and a second six weeks later. At two months of age, she was given more comprehensive testing that measured her brain response to noise. Her parents, Keith, a 28-year-old tree nursery owner, and Jessica, a teacher who is 27, found out she had mild to moderate hearing loss. “This was a shock, and initially the idea of our daughter wearing hearing aids and dealing with her disability was difficult,” commented Jessica. “We empathized with her. We cried. It was hard, and yet the support of family and friends, our church, and our faith in God pulled us through.” But it was the experts at the BC Family Hearing Resource Centre, which

On sound footing The ninth annual Elks and Royal Purple Walkathon for Brighter Futures to benefit the BC Family Hearing Resource Centre is May 16 at Campbell Valley Regional Park (south entrance.) Registration is at 9 a.m. with the fun, non-competitive walk (1.3 or 3 kilometres) starts at 10 a.m. and concludes with a barbecue and entertainment. For information and pledge forms email: info@bcfamilyhearing.com or call 604-584-2827. The centre is the largest agency in B.C. helping families with children from birth to age five with hearing or speech and language difficulties.

Chelsea attends the centre’s baby group and her parents are grateful for the education and support they receive at the centre. It’s helping make the uncharted waters less intimidating for these new parents. An expert at the centre monitors the baby’s development and provides ways the family can encourage Chelsea to listen and communicate. “She also encourages us during those tough moments, like when Chelsea pulls out her hearing aids.... all of the time,” Jessica explained. “That’s one of our biggest challenges at the moment – keeping them in her ears and out of her mouth.” • More online at: www.langleyadvance.com, click on “News”

Smash-and-grabs cause damage

A pair of break-ins left two businesses to pick up the pieces this month. by Matthew Claxton mclaxton@langleyadvance.com

Break and enters to local businesses have the Langley RCMP asking for public help in tracking down the thieves. The first took place at 1 a.m. on May 3, at the Champers Salon in the 8800 block of 210 Street in Walnut Grove. Police arrived to find a smashed front window. About $5,000 in salon products were stolen, said Cpl. Holly Marks, the spokesperson for the Langley RCMP. An older-model red minivan was seen leaving the area shortly after the alarm

sounded, Marks said. Two days later, thieves used a minivan to smash into a NAPA dealership. The thieves apparently rammed the auto parts store in the 20000 block of Industrial Avenue just before 7 a.m. The stolen green Dodge Caravan was left embedded in the building. The thieves had gone in through the hole and lifted cash, credit cards, gas cards, and various miscellaneous keys from a manager’s office, Marks said. A man was seen running from the scene, Marks said. He was about 5’8” tall, wore a white hoodie and blue jeans. Anyone who knows anything about either break-in can call the Langley RCMP at 604-532-3200 or CrimeStoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

Treehouse ablaze

It wasn’t the largest structure fire the Langley City fire department has ever had to extinguish. by Matthew Claxton mclaxton@langleyadvance.com

Langley City firefighters responded to an unusual house fire on Friday evening: a treehouse fire. Deputy Chief Jim McIntee said the fire was reported at about 8 p.m. Friday, in the 20500 block of 48th Avenue. Several neighbours had spotted the fire and turned their garden hoses on the blaze, bringing it under control. The firefighters mopped up and finished the job. No one was hurt. The cause is under investigation. This was the first treehouse fire McIntee can remember since he joined the City fire department, but they aren’t uncommon in rural areas, he said. “I’ve done treehouse fires before,” said McIntee. Kids tend to use their treehouses to play with matches, he explained.

5:15 a.m. Monday. In all three cases, the suspect produced a weapon and demanded cash, and after getting money the robber ran off on foot. Descriptions of the robbers were similar: white, between 38 and 50 years old. However, investigators aren’t sure yet whether the robberies were by one, two, or three men. RCMP Serious Crimes investigators are still gathering evidence, said James. Police are holding back details about the weapon or weapons used to threaten the store clerks. In the first robbery, the man wore all-black clothing, including a black cap. At the pizza shop, the robber wore a long black jacket and a bowler hat. At the gas station, the robber wore a grey short-sleeved shirt, a dark scarf, and a grey two-tone ballcap. At the first robbery, the man was described as 5’8” tall and clean shaven. Anyone with information can call the Langley RCMP at 604-532-3200 or CrimeStoppers at 1-800222-8477.

All disasters killing planet While the world looks on in horror over the ecological disaster unfolding in the Gulf of Mexico, some folks are actually breathing quiet sighs of relief. The millions of litres of British Petroleum oil spewing into the waters and drifting towards a fragile coastline, destroying untold wildlife and habitat, are taking some of the negative media heat off others who have been squirming uncomfortably in the spotlight over lesser tragedies of their making. For instance, the charges pending against Goldman Sachs, regarding questionable trading practices that helped the world – and especially the United States, into an economic recession have faded from view, as news focuses on the hundreds of thousands of litres that add to the oily disaster every day. Some folks have had the temerity to suggest that our ongoing, made-in-Canada environmental disaster, the Athabasca Tar Sands oil recovery project (which also involves BP, incidentally), isn’t nearly as serious anymore, now that there’s a far more obvious and visible disaster unfolding more quickly somewhere else. But the tar sands defenders are wrong. Even if the Gulf disaster is worse, it doesn’t diminish one iota the serious damage that is being done – all legal and sanctioned by our environmentally challenged federal government – every day through the oil-mining in northern Alberta. It reminds us of folks who claim police shouldn’t worry so much about speeding motorists as long as there are still drunk drivers on the roads. Well, they both kill people, even if one might kill a few more than the other, and both need our traffic officers’ strictest attention. And that’s how it is with environmental disasters: they’re all killing us by degrees. – B.G.

Langley Speedway

Track drew big crowds

Dear Editor, The Langley Speedway track did not close “simply because it had no financing” [Racers need better plan for revival, May 7 Letters, Langley Advance]. The lease on the property was up for renewal every race season, causing conflict amongst those that would see themselves as the operators and creating an atmosphere of uncertainty among sponsors. The GVRD was paid 10 per cent of the revenue, but little to no effort was made to repair or maintain the facility, even though they own it. How can any business make long-term commitments under such an agreement? Secondly, it has been offered to us, time and again, that private and business interest to reopen the track is there.

NASCAR purchased the CASCAR series a few years ago, and it is now primarily sponsored by Canadian Tire. NASCAR officials have expressed a desire to be involved in this area’s market for those chains, and local businesses were and would be heavily involved in the activities at the track. The track used to be better-attended than Canucks games. Langley Speedway was once the most famous oval track in this region. It should not be forgotten or destroyed. Our intent is to be sure everyone knows about Langley Speedway. Murray Jones, Langley Speedway Historical Society [Note: A fuller version of this letter is online at www.langleyadvance.com.]

Fighting gangs

Drug bill fills gang coffers

Dear Editor, The gang problem will continue unless we stop subsidizing gangs [Fighting gangs in Langley, May 7, Langley Advance]. The Conservative federal government is subsidizing gangs. It even has a gang bailout bill that will cost the taxpayers $10 billion per year! Isn’t that great? Your tax dollars are being used to artificially inflate the price of drugs so that gangsters can buy more flashy things and attract your kid. Maybe they will have so much money that they can even buy bigger guns. The bill is called S-10.

Before, it was called C-15. It brings in mandatory minimum sentences for drug crimes. This might sound like it will hurt gangs, but it won’t. The people who get caught for drug crimes the most are college kids, medical marijuana providers and patients, and smallscale dealers – in other words, the people who provide competition to the gangs. Mom and pot operations, if you will. When you make the sentences tougher for drug crimes, it raises the price of drugs. Therefore the bill will both jail the only competi-

tion to the big gangs, and make the drug trade more lucrative for those not getting caught. Prohibition is a subsidy for organized crime. Bill S10 is the Gang Bailout and Recruitment Bill of 2010. Which politicians stand to gain from increased violent crime? Would it happen to be the “tough on crime” party? Those who claim to be “tough on crime” need crime. Otherwise they appear as they are: dumb on crime. Travis Erbacher, Langley [Note: Find more letters on this topic online at www. langleyadvance.com.]

Tax

Four reasons to support HST 3.) The HST doesn’t favour one kind of good or service. The PST penalizes goods, compared to services, and tends to discourage capital investment. 4.) I’m looking forward to lower prices. The net effect of the PST is that it adds almost 1.5 per cent to the sticker price paid by the customer before tax. The HST will be good for B.C.’s economy. That will be good for our children. Hugh Alley, Langley [Note: A fuller version of this letter is online at www.langleyadvance.com.]

Your reader [Debt plan falls short, May 4 Letters, Langley Advance] writes that firing the superintendent who led the district into its $14-million disaster would “incur a huge severance package.” With only one year left on the superintendent’s contract, the cost would be comparatively minimal. When Cheryle Beaumont was hired as superintendent, Langley School District did not owe money. Each year that she has been in power, the debt has grown. Can we afford to keep this superintendent? L.

Dear Editor, At a recent dinner party, three friends said how much they disliked the HST. But by the end of the evening they agreed that the HST made sense, even though it would affect their businesses directly. There are four reasons why the HST is better for the B.C. economy than the current combination of PST and GST. 1.) The HST reduces the costs of tax collecting by an estimated $140 million a year. 2.) Moving to the HST will help exporters. The PST increases the costs of our exports.

Fighting gangs

Criminals find a gold mine in people’s debit card numbers Unlike other gangs, the thieves who want to rip off your debit card information prefer to keep a low profile.

by Matthew Claxton

mclaxton@langleyadvance.com

They’re organized criminals, but they don’t tattoo gang names on their bodies, they don’t wear colours, and they don’t come up with snappy names.

Const. Steven Kuan of the economic crime section of Langley’s RCMP spends his time tracking the gangs who want to steal the data from your debit card and empty your bank account.

“We’re finding very organized crime groups behind it,” Kuan said. Langley officers recently arrested a man from Montreal who had withdrawn money at four local banks. He was carrying

numerous blank cards, each one labelled with a PIN number and a serial number. The man was on his cellphone when police caught up with him. Within hours, all the TELUS AUTHORIZED DEALERS Vancouver

fake debit cards had been duplicated and were being used to withdraw money from other cash machines across the country, Kuan said. Kuan said criminals have spent the past several years improving their techniques for ripping off debit systems. The scam begins with a stolen or purchased PIN pad, the sort used in countless businesses. The crooks will take them apart and add their own components. The device still works, but it also records the magnetic strips of your card, along with your personal identification number. A member of the organization will enter a restaurant or store, usually close to closing time, and while the clerk isn’t looking, they will swap out the store’s PIN pad for their own modified version. “Now it’s a full-fledged skimming operation,” Kuan said. If the store’s employees don’t notice the swap, they’ll continue to swipe every card through the machine. In the past, the criminals would leave their machine in place for about a month, then steal it back to get at the PIN data. Now, they don’t ever have to touch it again. “They now have wireless chips installed,” Kuan said. A crook will approach with a Bluetooth-equipped PDA or computer and simply download all the stolen numbers. At least three separate groups are operating right now in Canada, with between three and 30 people involved at any one time. Many are based out of Montreal, but the criminals will fly their whole gangs around the country, ripping off small towns and big cities alike. Unlike a drug-running gang member, most of the debit scammers have a fairly high level of education, and are skilled with computers and electronics. While they could get legitimate jobs, they find crime more lucrative. The best way to protect yourself against the PIN-thieving gangs is to change your PIN on a regular basis, Kuan noted. For businesses, the RCMP is running programs such as Project Protect, which involves training employees to check the serial number on their PIN pads after stores close.

Township

Demo garden emphasizes learning The Township’s demonstration garden in Murrayville is opening with blooming ideas. Creepy crawly critters can be a backyard’s best friend. And along with some compost and rainwater, worms can help create gardens that are not only nice to look at, but are good for the environment. Langley Township’s demonstration garden, 4887 221st St., is opening for the season, and celebrating with a series of workshops and the chance to purchase some garden essentials. Residents can drop by the garden and learn about composting, WaterWise gardening, native plants, water conservation, and gardening without pesticides, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturday, May 15. The free, family-oriented event will be held rain or shine, and includes refreshments, activities, and contests. “This is a great opportunity to come by on the weekend and pick up a composter,” said Township solid waste coordinator Robyn Cooper. “It’s also a great chance to ask questions, whether you are a new or seasoned composter.” Two workshops will be offered during the opening. Residents can drop in for backyard composting at 11 a.m. or 1 p.m. (A 10 a.m. worm composting session is already full, but other classes may be held.) During the garden’s opening event, residents can also purchase rain bar-

Solid waste coordinator Robyn Cooper and demonstration garden coordinator Liz Kendler are getting ready to welcome the public to the opening of the Township of Langley’s Demonstration Garden on May 15. The free event will run from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., rain or shine, at 4877 221st St. rels, water conservation kits, and backyard composters. Worm composters, ideal for smaller homes, are also for sale, but completion of a free worm composting workshop is required. The items are all available at subsidized prices to Township residents. Proof of residency is required, and only cash or cheques will be accepted. Cooper noted that many people are discovering the benefits of composting, and are eager to get on board

with Metro Vancouver’s Zero Waste Challenge. “Residents are knowledgeable about the need to reduce garbage, and know that disposing of food scraps differently is the best way to reduce the production of garbage,” she said. “The bonus is you get compost in the end, which can really improve your garden.” As spring has just started, the opening is an opportunity to learn how to make a WaterWise garden thrive, talk to experts who will be on hand to discuss various types of plants, and see examples of different types of plant beds, such as shade and butterfly gardens. “This is just the start of a busy season for us,” said garden coordinator Liz Kendler, as a series of workshops for adults and day camps for kids will be held throughout the spring and summer. The educational sessions kick off on May 27 with Composting 101 at the Murrayville Library, and those who are interested can pick up a flyer during the garden’s opening celebration. Those who purchase a composter on May 15 may also want to sign up for the May 27 workshop to learn more and have their questions answered. The Township garden will be staffed Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., June through August. Call 604-532-3521 or visit tol.ca and click on “Garbage and Recycling.”

Gord Heppler loved helping kids and he loved riding motorcycles. He was 44 when he died from cancer in May 1992. His wife Jackie decided to host a charity ride in his name. That was more than 17 years ago and the spring-time ride, organized through the Greater Vancouver Motorcycle Club, continues annually to this day. For 2010, the 18th annual ride is this Sunday and everyone – whether on two wheels or four – is invited to head up to Port Kells to take part. “The money that we have raised in the past has gone towards equipment, courage awards, and family support when the children have to leave the hospital,” Jackie said. And that’s amounted to a great deal of helping. “Over the last 17 years we have raised a grand total of $107,055.07 for B.C. Children’s Hospital,” she said. The money is earmarked specifically for the oncology department at the hospital for children. The ride May 16 is about three hours long with various stops along the way. It started out for bikes but now includes vehicles. “Each participant is given a route sheet to follow which is not revealed until the day,” she said. “It goes out into the Valley which has lots of curvy roads for the motorcycle enthusiast.” People don’t have to ride. They can simply head to the GVMC clubhouse, unit 307 9785 192nd St., to start the day with a pancake breakfast at 9 a.m. The cost is $5 but it’s free to see the area’s distinctive motorcycles. “In the past we have had about 150 people involved in the event. We would like to see many more than that this year,” she added. The ride gets underway after the 10 a.m. sign-up. The $20 cost includes the ride and the barbecue afterward. “When the riders return they will have a full barbecue complete with dessert, and can participate in the raffle, silent auction and draws while being entertained,” Jackie noted. More information is available by contacting Jackie Heppler at 604-888-8152 or through www.gvmc.ca.

David Leavers, director of the Township of Langley’s Recreation, Culture, and Parks Division, said he is “a fan” of the provincial sporting event. this kind of a sporting event,” said Leavers, who worked as a volunteer at the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympic Games this past February. “These opportunities don’t come around really often in [my] kind of work.” While only one facility needed to be built specifically for the event – a four-court sand volleyball facility at Willoughby Community Park – the prospect of the Games coming to Langley may have expedited other projects. For example, over the past few years at McLeod Athletic Park, the grandstands, with a seating capacity for 2,200, have been completed; the athletic track has been resurfaced, a pole vault facility has been supplied; and a scoreboard

has been installed. “[The Games] sure makes it an easier sell. This is all work that needed to happen,” Leavers said. “Would it have happened in time for 2010, otherwise? It’s hard to say.”

About the Games

David Leavers is Langley Township’s direct link to the BC Games board of directors. Leavers, along with Langley school trustee Wendy Johnson, Langley Events Centre interim general manager Jim Marvel, Trinity Western University dean of human kinetics Blair Whitmarsh, and Tourism Langley executive director Deborah Kulchiski, has taken on the role of board liaisos for the Games being held July 22-25 in the Township. The liaisons connect with Games president Michael Jackstien, vice president Jamey Paterson, and the 15 directors on a regular basis. Their job is to identify key organizations within the community with whom they need to work closely. The Township is providing funding and facilities for the Games ,and therefore appointed a liaison (in this case Leavers, the Township’s director of recreation, culture, and parks division) to attend board meetings. “My role is to be the conduit to the Township for whatever the requirement is, of the community,” Leavers said. “I am the appropriate point with respect to the facilities that will be used, but I also am the point to our engineering department to have road closures done, or our finance department around payments that will come in.” Leavers said he has participated in “countless” meetings in the run up to the Games. “I’m not only meeting with the board,” he said, “I’m meeting with the directors in the different functional areas.” He, along with the board members, visited Terrace during the 2010 BC Winter Games in March. “Absolutely, I’m a fan of hosting

Titans rally from tough loss to earn split

Shaking off a tough loss the night before, the local team downed the Olympia Reign Sunday at the LEC. by Troy Landreville sports@langleyadvance.com

The B.C. Titans gained a large measure of revenge on Mother’s Day. Less than 24 hours after suffering a heartbreaking 130-128 loss to the visiting Olympia Reign at the Langley Events Centre, the Titans salvaged their weekend series with their Washington rivals.

A 115-104 victory over the Reign Sunday at the LEC improved the Titans’ International Basketball League record to 4-2. Saturday, the Titans appeared to have a clear advantage over the Reign as Canadian Basketball Hall of Fame coach Ken Shields – who has also worked with the NBA’s Milwaukee Bucks – helped out B.C. head coach Scott Allen. Known as the most successful coach in the history of Canadian university basketball, Shields spent 13 seasons at the helm of the University of Victoria men’s program. He won seven straight CIAU championships with the “Blue and Gold,”

coached his Vikes to nine CIAU national finals, and captured four CIAU Coach of the Year awards. During this same time, Shields worked with the Canadian national team program, and was soon the national team’s coach and program director.

The Trinity Western University men’s basketball team took a big step in solidifying their forward position by signing Jesse Jeffers for the 2010/11 campaign. The 6’6” forward from North Vancouver’s Argyle Secondary comes to a team loaded with talent at his position, but Spartans coach Scott Allen is excited about Jeffers’s vast potential beyond this year. “Jesse is a vital addition to Spartans basketball,” Allen said. “We are confident that Jesse will help fill the forward spot when Jacob [Doerksen] and Tyrell [Mara] graduate. Jesse has excellent touch and has an innate ability to score, which was witnessed many times in the past year. Jesse is a great slasher and scorer and will most likely play the wing where he can use his athleticism and strong leaping ability.” Jeffers, who averaged 31 points per Future Trinity Western University Spartan Jesse game (including 50 points in a 79-77 Jeffers starred with the Argyle Secondary Pipers this win over Sir Charles Tupper) last year, past season. earned the top scorer honours at the 2010 B.C. provincial boys ‘AAA’ basketfits my goal to become a coach, teacher, ball championship. and/or a professional basketball player.

Spirit and sportsmanship paid off for eight members of the Langley Olympians, who swam at the West Coast Open at Richmond last weekend. Hosted by the Richmond Rapids swim club, the meet took place in a 50 metre (long course) pool. As well as achieving a number of medals, the local group of lively young swimmers won the Team Spirit Award and along with it, a cheque for $250. The criteria to win included best

team spirit, cheering, team gear, and parent participation. Bearing in mind LOSC had probably the smallest team there, this was a notable achievement. In the pool, Kyla Barton, 13, and Meredith Clark, 10, both swam to new provincial qualifying times. Barton also earned best times in five events and placed third in the 100m breaststroke. Clark achieved three new best times while placing second in the 400m and 100m freestyle swims, as well as in the 200m backstroke. Other Olympians who enjoyed outstanding meets were: • Kelley Macdonald, 10, who placed first in the 100m breaststroke, third in the 200m IM and

100m freestyle, and fourth in the 200m backstroke, 400m freestyle, and 200m breaststroke; • Renae Ledoux, 10, who was second in the 100m breaststroke, third in the 200m breaststroke, 400m freestyle and 200m backstroke, and fourth in the 200m freestyle; and • Lauren Hurley, 12, who was second in the 200m backstroke with Robyn Nakano, 11, taking fourth place. The other team members were Liam Taylor, 11, Gabby Szalkai, 11, and Meghan Shinger, 12, all of whom achieved new best times. Olympians registration is ongoing.
