May Day parade still magical for mom

by Troy Landreville

tlandreville@langleyadvance.com

May Day in Fort Langley holds dear to Olivia McKenzie’s heart.

The Homelife Benchmark realtor and mother of two – fiveyear-old Anna and one-year-old Chase – busily inflated balloons to hand out to visitors prior to the 88th annual May Day parade Monday.

McKenzie’s family has been in the area since the 1930s.

Her great-grandmother was a school teacher in Langley during

the 1940s, and her grandfather worked as a realtor in the area in the 1970s.

A lifelong Fort Langley resident, the 36-year-old McKenzie has never missed a May Day celebration at the village.

“This is my hometown,” McKenzie said, “and this is a great event for the community that I’ve known my whole life.

We do it as a family every year.

This year we have three generations of our family watching the parade together. In the past we’ve had up to four generations.”

McKenzie said her daughter was up at four o’clock Monday morning, in eager anticipation of the festivities.

Noting that long-time Fort Langley residents are excited about seeing the parade restored to its original route, McKenzie said she will continue attending Fort Langley May Day parades and celebrations, “until I can’t go anymore.”

This year’s parade route headed south from Mavis Avenue on Glover Road to 88th Avenue, then west to Trattle Street.

The end of the parade brought visitors to Fort Langley Community Park, where the fun continued with traditional May Pole dancing, entertainment, rides, games, displays by community groups, and food.

Olivia McKenzie and daughter Anna had their picture taken with the Homelife Benchmark Realty mascot Jerome the Gnome prior to the May Day parade.

Reflections of May Day festivities, held in Fort Langley Monday, could be seen in South Fraser Community Band member Elizabeth Carlson’s euphonium.

Lucille Pinette is buying security cameras to keep an eye on the Brookswood Nursery and Garden Centre, a business she’s built up with her husband over 30 years.

Although she’s seen a few break ins over the years, this week the nursery was targeted twice in as many nights.

On Monday or Tuesday night, thieves cut the chain on a gate at the side of the nursery and let themselves in to steal hanging baskets and bonsai trees.

Pinette discovered the theft Wednesday morning and resecured everything. She expected that would be the end of it, but the thieves weren’t done.

On Thursday morning, Pinette woke up to discover a second theft.

“I was floored,” she said.

This was no nickel and dime theft, Pinette explains. The thieves took bonsaied Japanese larch trees, some of them more than 25 years old. The bonsai were some of the most expensive plants in the nursery.

The total value of plants taken is more than $5,000, Pinette said.

“They took all my best,” she

said.

Worse, they took a bonsai she was plant-sitting for a friend.

Pinette is hoping someone who has been offered a too-good-tobe-true deal on expensive bonsai will go to the police with a tip, and that her friend’s plant can be returned.

Pinette has called the Langley RCMP, who are investigating.

In case of further thefts, Pinette has hidden some of her more expensive plants and is talking to security firms about cameras and other measures. She’s also planning to buy a new German shepherd.

She has also been talking to other garden store owners, who

are well aware that thieves target their wares.

“It’s a very large problem,” said Ed Holden, owner of Potter’s Farm and Nursery, which has locations in Cloverdale and Surrey.

For a time last fall, Potter’s was the hot spot for break ins in Surrey, and just last week another of their stores was robbed. Potter’s has video surveillance, and they got a good look at the thieves.

“They certainly, to me, look like they’re in the gardening business,” Holden said.

He doesn’t know who’s doing the break ins, but he guesses they’re “fly-by-night” landscap-

Anti-pot team will need warrants: courts A new ruling will require warrants before electrical inspectors can search for pot.

by Matthew Claxton mclaxton@langleyadvance.com

To get the Public Safety Inspection Teams (PSIT) back up and running, Langley Township will have to jump through a few extra hoops.

On Thursday, the B.C. Court of Appeal ruled that Surrey’s similar program violated the Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

The programs are based on sending municipal electrical inspectors and bylaw officials into homes with suspiciously high power consumption.

In many cases – well over 90 per cent in Langley’s experience – such homes were

using the extra power to light and heat indoor marijuana grow operations.

The judges ruled that at the very least, administrative warrants would be needed before allowing inspectors to search homes.

However, it will not stop Langley from moving ahead with plans to revitalize its own PSIT unit.

“We will incorporate the case into the bylaw,” said Township administrator Mark Bakken.

The case has clarified what is needed for municipal workers to inspect a home, Bakken said. He isn’t sure yet who will issue the administrative warrants.

They might be issued by a Justice of the Peace, or possibly by a third party appointed by the Township.

Bakken said the Township still hopes to have a new bylaw written by June or July, and to get the team operating again by the

fall.

Langley’s PSIT operated in 2008, and found more than 220 grow ops, along with some homeowners who simply had bad wiring, or a large number of power tools.

Residents got advance notice of visits, and no criminal charges could be laid. In almost all cases, the grow ops they found had been hastily dismantled or abandoned.

The intent of the teams was to eliminate the hazard caused by the bad wiring in grow ops, which often leads to fires. Another objective was to disrupt the growers’ activities.

The team was at first shut down after a firefighter, who had accompanied the team, was charged with theft for taking a flashlight from one home.

The team’s return was stalled as local officials waited to see the outcome of the Surrey court case.

ers, stealing to get what they need. In almost every garden store break in, thieves take high value items.

“Nobody’s breaking in to steal geraniums,” said Holden.

He noted that it isn’t just stores that can see plants stolen. He’s received more than a few orders from homeowners surprised that someone stole ornamental trees and plants right out of their front yards.

Lodge upgrades

It’s more embarrassing to have a hearing loss than to wear hearing aids.

Figures cited in the story about Langley Lodge mistakenly said the Langley Care Society, which operates the lodge, is responsible for part of funding for the $28-million expansion and upgrade.

The society is ultimately responsible for the entire $28-million mortgage, said Patrick Matiowski, the lodge’s director of fundraising.

To accomplish this, the lodge holds fundraisers, receives support from community and service groups, and is under contract to Fraser Health.

208 input sought Safety, traffic, and funding will be discussed today.

Residents worried about the possibility of 208th Street becoming a truck route are expected to turn out en masse at today’s (Tuesday’s) open house.

The Township is asking for input between 4 and 7 p.m. at the Langley Events Centre’s banquet room.

A number of residents have already expressed opposition to the plan, and at least one person has begun a petition against the truck route notion.

pointed out that it will bring in money from TransLink.

When the Albion Ferry close down, sections of Glover Road lost their status as part of the Major Road Network. Repairs and upgrades to those roads are funded partly by TransLink.

Adding much of 208th Street through Willoughby into the network would see the TransLink funding to the Township topped up again, according to a staff report.

The Township has long planned to increase the width of 208th Street to four lanes, as development in Willoughby is expected to see thousands of new residents there.

Seeing in Spring Langley’s own Gemma Martini (right) and young Cole Armour (above) were in the studio last week recording Keep the Pride Alive.

Keep the Pride Alive

Flash-mob dance in works After a surge of national pride demonstrated during the Vancouver 2010 Olympic Winter Games, an enthusiastic Langley businesswoman Maria Martini was inspired to keep the pride alive.

Joining forces with some big-named professionals in the entertainment world, Martini set the plans in motion for a memorable Canada Day celebration.

She’s teamed up with Marlise McCormick, associate director of choreography for the 2010 Olympic’s opening and closing ceremonies, as well as award-winning songwriters Bob Buckley and Brian Gibson, to create an event like no other seen in Canada Days across the nation – and it’s going to be performed in her hometown of Langley during the local two-day Canada Day festivities June 30 and July 1 at McLeod Athletic Park.

Enthusiastic people, athletes, dancers and energetic performers (16 years old

and older) are invited to perform a 1,000person flash-mob dance choreographed to a new and unique Canadian song.

Buckley, also a composer, has written the bilingual song entitled Keep the Pride Alive – recorded by 28 musicians.

The new single will be performed by six of B.C.s best vocalists, including Langley’s own, 11-year-old Cole Armour.

Martini believes her musical celebration will truly touch the hearts and minds of Canadians, reigniting the euphoria of national pride.

The song was recently recorded and is primed for dance rehearsals, starting in late June.

The time has come to sign-up a thousand people to perform the flash-mob dance. Registration is open at www.keepthepridealive.ca. The deadline is June 20.

With an impressive team, who were involved in the creation and production of the Olympic ceremonies, this Canada Day celebration is destined to make an historic imprint on the hearts and minds of Canadians, said Martini.

20439 Douglas Crescent, Langley, B.C.

For someone taking part in the Langley Relay for Life for the first time, Erin Easingwood has jumped in with both feet.

Easingwood is organizing the luminary tribute, a special event that takes place every year at Relays across the country. The Canadian Cancer Society fundraiser has already raised more than $130,000, and more donations are expected to pour in on Relay night itself.

The luminary ceremony is one of the highlights of the event.

Late in the evening, after the sun has set, hundreds of paper bags, anchored with sand, are illuminated from within by candles. The bags ring the track and spell ou t messages in the stands at the McLeod Athletic Park.

“This year it’s going to be HOPE and CARE,” Easingwood said.

The illuminated bags form a glowing white ring, and when the stadium lights go down, it accompanies a quiet moment for folks to remember those they’ve lost to cancer.

Easingwood has been working along with other volunteers to gather materials used to decorate the bags that are dedicated to loved ones.

“I’ve been madly buying up stickers and pens,” said Easingwood.

She’s now lining up people to help keep the candles lit and secure the bags and sand during the ceremony.

Despite taking charge, Easingwood has a confession to make.

“I have not actually seen the ceremony myself,” she said.

She’s looking forward to finding a brief quiet moment to enjoy the ceremony she’s overseeing.

“I’m sure there will be time to reflect,” Easingwood said.

The ceremony was something that drew Easingwood to Relay.

Growing up, one of Easingwood’s friends was J.D. Jeffrey, a cancer survivor who was involved in Relay

Langley Advance file photo

The luminary ceremony is a moment of calm contemplation during the Langley Relay for Life. for Life events going back many years. Jeffrey was particularly moved by the luminary ceremony and described it to Easingwood.

Jeffrey died of a heart attack linked to her cancer treatments six years ago.

An even more personal reason surfaced last summer.

“I also lost my dad to cancer this year,” Easingwood said. Hank Easingwood passed away in August.

While it’s her first Relay, Easingwood has already decided

it won’t be her last. She’s been impressed by the way staff and volunteers handle the many demands of organizing such a large community event. She’s sure Relay will find a job for her next year, too.

“There’s always some way to help out,” Easingwood said.

It is still not too late to raise money or even sign up a new team to join the almost 100 existing teams.

She was picked up as a stray in the 6000 block of 256th Street, and thought to have mange. She required a lot of extra care, including vet visits. It turned out she has severe food allergies.

“We haven’t cut back yet. But it’s inevitable if the pace of donations stays at this rate, we’ll have to cut back,” he said.

“We would obviously never sacrifice the basics, but we’ll have to make tougher decision about the secondary stuff.”

LAPS volunteers and staff strive to stimulate the animals, take care of medical needs, and make them more adoptable through socialization and training.

“We pride ourselves in being able to do the extras for our animals, not just making sure they’re warm and fed,” he said.

“We’ve always been very humble in the work we do. But we’re learning we have to speak up a bit and let people know we need their help.”

So, LAPS is kicking off a new fundraising drive in early June with hopes of finding 100 new donors who will commit to giving $20 a month. There are already 50 such regular donors helping, several who have been giving since 2003.

Extras are always the first thing to go when times get tough.

In the case of the Langley Animal Protection Society, they’re looking at having to cutting back or eliminating programs such as grooming, or the community spay and neuter initiative, if donations don’t pickup soon, said Sean Baker, manager of the Patti Dale Animal Shelter.

“The dollars aren’t coming in as we’re used to,” he explained. “And that makes a big difference to what we can do for the animals in our care.”

While January saw a lot of traffic through the shelter for licence renewals, visitors to the Aldergrove facility began dwindling in February.

And with fewer people through the shelter, there’s less excitement, and consequently fewer donations, Baker said.

Donations are down 30 per cent, or almost $10,000 so far this year – and there’s no sign that will turn around soon.

In fact, the shelter is coming up to one of its most expensive season.

In the next three months Baker expects 200 to 250 kittens will be brought in.

They’re typically about seven days old, and stay in the shelter for about eight weeks, requiring a lot of medical care, special heaters, and a milk replacement.

It costs $450 an average per kitten, including tattooing, spaying or neutering.

The adoption fee is $175 for a cat, which obviously can’t fully recoup those costs – and that’s just one example of where a lot of extra money and effort is put into making the animals more adoptable, Baker said.

The shelter operates on an annual budget of $900,000, 25 per cent of which is dependent on fundraising and donations.

Interests conflict

Political conflict of interest is getting out of hand – or more precisely, the appearance of conflict has become a significant nuisance.

Township Councillor Jordan Bateman, concerned about conflict, is excusing himself from decisions over upgrading 208th Street, because he resides on that street.

Coun. Kim Richter has similarly backed away from dealings concerning a water line to Aldergrove through the general vicinity of her neighbourhood.

Their sentiments are understandable, even laudable, although we fear they are mostly driven by lawyers overly fearful of silly people too quick to assume that everyone else is as greedy and unscrupulous as they would like to be.

If Coun. Bateman can’t vote on a truck route for 208th Street and Coun. Richter can’t make a decision about a water pipe in the Salmon River Uplands, then how about the others? Mayor Rick Green owns horses – are all things equestrian off-limits for him? Or anything to do with the ALR? Should Councillors Bob Long and Bev Dornan stay away from Aldergrove, in deference to the business interests both have in or near that community?

Coun. Charlie Fox has been vocal about soil issues and mushroom composting stink, both of which have affected the area in which he lives. Should he just shut up?

Every councillor who lives in the community he or she serves will be in some way affected by every decision made at the council table. Indeed, some of the most effective council members have historically been drawn to public office by a need to address problems in their own neighbourhoods.

It’s not all the politicians’ fault. We seem to live in an era of stupid conspiracy theories where there has to be a dark, malicious motive under every decision.

We need to get back to judging councillors on the merits of the decisions they make, not on the ones they must foreswear to protect themselves from frivolous perceptions of conflict.

Fort Langley

Unfortunately, certain members of the public have chosen to use their association with rowing to voice their personal views and push forward their own agenda. They do not represent the views of the majority of the rowing community.

Rowing has always supported development of what was the old cedar mill. In fact, the founder of rowing in Fort Langley, Paul Sleightholme, worked with Interfor and Equitas to help gain access to the water back in 2001, and it was this initiative that saw the

old office building used as a boat house, and a ramp and dock built which first allowed the Olympic sport of rowing to develop on this great waterway.

Paul Sleightholme and Dave Jordan, a TWU geography professor, built the original ramp and dock themselves.

Schools, universities, and the community are all benefiting from the hard work of the original founders and a developer and Township that had the vision to make this area so much better.

Paul Sleightholme, Bedford Rowing Society

Rowers’ help appreciated

Dear Editor, I’d like to confirm as well that ParkLane Homes has appreciated the input of the rowing and paddling groups over years to develop the facilities that support the potential for the sport in the area, and we care to support that potential with this plan as well.

Representatives of the rowing society and the canoe club have offered direct input into the concept proposed for the waterfront at Bedford Landing.

Dear Editor, The Bedford Rowing Society, the umbrella group that runs and promotes rowing in Fort Langley and on the Bedford Channel, is in support of the new proposals as submitted by ParkLane and are anxious to see the development completed.

Paul Sleightholme, president of the Bedford Rowing Society and founder of rowing in Fort Langley, is dismayed by the reporting with regard to ParkLane’s rezoning application [Rowers fretting over Fraser River access, May 21, Langley Advance].

The Advance reported, “Rowers are not happy about the latest development in Bedford Landing.”

The Bedford Rowing Society has had extensive meetings with Township planners and ParkLane regarding access for rowing events. The Bedford Rowing Society is quite satisfied that the present proposals will work well with hosting major rowing events.

Simple answer to many problems

Get rid of TransLink.

Stop wasting time on useless debates in the provincial house. Pass meaningful legislation, not the drivel they spew forth. Start listening to constituents instead of insulting them. MLAs were elected to work full time; make them do it.

Help instead of hindering businesses.

I could go on about alternatives to the HST, but you probably would not publish my letter anyway, although, it could get people to start thinking, and then they may just start to take an interest in what is happening all around them, instead of waiting for the other guy to do it for them.

HST

Dear Editor, The answer to your editorial [Tax alternative needs thought, May 18 Opinion, Langley Advance] is really quite simple, and it would probably eliminate a large portion of the provincial deficit.

Beginning immediately, enact strict controls on all government spending.

Eliminate all of the obscene waste by governments and Crown corporations.

Have our auditor general audit of all taxfree allowances given to MLAs. Eliminate hospital administrators; there is no need to have one in each hospital, drawing salaries in excess of $200,000 per year.

Centralize the administration of all hospitals and schools in the province. Get rid of school boards and trustees.

Insert the word “accountability” into the job descriptions of all politicians and government employees.

Not fair to add family to conflict

TODAY’S FLYERS... in the Call 604-856-7733 for delivery info.

Further, published reports singling out my parents for not signing the petition against 208th are unfair. My parents, out of their respect for me, don’t sign any petitions to do with the Township, so as not to be seen as unduly or unfairly influencing me. They simply don’t want to put me in an awkward situation.

Their refusal to sign that petition should not be taken as an indicator, either way, of their feelings on the matter.

My parents are not public officials and, frankly, should be left out of this process and published reports.

Dear Editor, I am troubled by the tenor of some recent reports and rumours in the community and other media outlets regarding the 208th Street truck route proposal.

For the record, I am unable to vote on or debate the 208th proposal, as I have declared a conflict of interest. I have recently moved into the 208th corridor and therefore it could be argued I have a financial interest in how this issue is resolved. To remove any doubt and to ensure whatever action council takes is legitimate, I have declared myself in conflict and will remove myself from the vote. I am the only councillor who lives in northwest Langley.

Contrary to other rumours and reports, I was not in attendance at the previous vote to send the 208th proposal to an open house, as I was home with my wife and newborn son.

Annual event

Walkers celebrated

by Roxanne Hooper

rhooper@langleyadvance.com

Edged out for the oldest walker award, Stan Van Meer has been a regular at the Langley Walk since the 1970s.

But it appears 80-year-old Inta Schorcht beat him, being crowned the title of oldest walker at the walk.

The announcement was made last week, when a series of other awards for the 48th annual walk were announced by the Township of Langley.

The most walkers from a elementary school came from Langley Fundamental, with a team of 12.

The most walkers from an secondary school came out from R.E. Mountain, which fielded a team of eight.

Seventeen employees from Coast Capital Savings earned the distinction of “most walkers” for an organization, while the family title was earned by the 19 members of the Humberstone clan.

And according to the judges, the most creatively dressed participants were Debbie Girard and Dorothy Johnston.

These folks were among more than 650 other walkers who turned out at Willoughby Community Park for this year’s event on May 2.

“This year was great,” said organizer Barbara Jeffery, health and fitness programmer for the Township. “I was really happy with this year.”

Drizzle, which started about the same time as the walk, didn’t dampen any of the high spirits, Jeffery said.

“They were a little damp returning, but they looked like they had a lot of fun.”

Numbers at this year’s walk climbed about 250 compared to 2009, making Jeffery and other organizers happy.

Planning is already underway to draw even more people next year, with the addition of more entertainment and an attempt to make it into more of a day-long event.

And Jeffery is hoping next year that Mother Nature is not too busy heading into May to hear her pleas for clear skies.

The goal is to keep bolstering participation year after year, shooting for more than 1,000 walkers for Langley Walk’s golden anniversary [50 years] in May 2012.

It’s never too early to mark next year’s Langley Walk on the calendar. The event is always held on the first Sunday of May, meaning in 2011 the walk is May 1.

The location, times, and other details will be posted on the Township of Langley website in the months to come.

Abreast in a Boat is out on the water again, it’s members dippin’ their paddles.

They are those women in pink, who have successfully undergone breast cancer treatment, and have taken up dragon boating to show others there is a full and active life after treatment.

And the 25-member Fort Langley-based crew, Abreast with FORT-itude, will be among the five Abreast in a Boat crews competing in the False Creek Women’s Regatta in Vancouver this weekend.

The free event is actually being held at Creekside Park, close to Telus World of Science, on Saturday, May 29, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., and FORT-itude is inviting locals to come and watch, and show their support.

“Besides competing against other women’s crews, we will have our own Breast Cancer Challenge where we race only against other breast cancer crews,” said FORT-itude member Heather Innes.

The special breast cancer race is set for noon, and will be followed by “our very moving” pink flower ceremony, Innes explained.

“This is a time to remember those who have lost their own personal battle to this disease, and give hope to those in treatment,” she elaborated.

The FORT-itude crew started paddling on the Bedford Channel in 2006. The group of women, ranging in age from 35 to 70 years, paddles twice a week: Wednesday evenings and Saturday mornings between April 1 and June 30.

Always looking for new people to join the crew, Innes invites interested women to contact them. They can visit the website at: www.a breastinaboat.com, or

Canadian Premier and BC Open Show Jumping Tournaments May 26 - 30 and June 2 - 6, 2010 • 6975 - 248th Street, Fort Langley

Equestrian

Show jumping spectacle helps students The school district foundation hopes to get a jump on fundraising efforts.

by Troy Landreville sports@langleyadvance.com

T

hunderbird Show Park’s 2010 season is off and jumping, starting Wednesday.

The Canadian Premier Tournament, being held May 26-30 and June 2-6, is the equestrian centre’s opening show of the season and features Canada’s top riders.

These riders and their horses will be showcased in the $15,000 Friday Night Spring Welcome Grand Prix, followed by the challenging $25,000 Grand Prix Sunday starting at 2 p.m.

A highlight of the Canadian

Premier event will be a fundraiser benefiting the Langley School District Foundation.

The foundation’s Heart to Heart Gala takes place during Sunday’s Grand Prix.

Guests will enjoy gourmet food from Seasonal Experience, samples from local wineries, punch, dessert, and a silent auction.

“We thought it would be kind of cool,” explained Susan Cairns, the foundation’s executive director. “The Tidball family [who own and operate Thunderbird Show Park] have always been big supporters of the foundation. It was a great idea, and they offered us the venue for free, so it seemed like a good deal.”

This is the fundraising gala’s fifth year, and the first time it has been held at Thunderbird.

Tickets are $55. Proceeds

will go towards the development and implementation of literacy and leadership programs especially designed to help vulnerable Grade 5-7 students in the Langley district.

The practical component of the program has the Grade 5-7 students working with Grade 11-12 students to refurbish and decorate 10 wooden chairs and turn them into works of art. Some of the chairs will be auctioned off at Sunday’s gala.

The others will be available at the foundation’s golf tournament Aug. 25 at The Redwoods Golf Course.

Last year’s gala was a huge success. More than 250 people helped raise $55,000 for the establishment of a district-wide loan bank of musical instruments for local students.

Tickets to the event can be had by calling 604-532-1464, or emailing scairns@sd35.bc.ca.

Martial arts

Self-defence courses all about ‘baby steps’ There is more to women’s self defence than simply fending off an attacker, says World Class Martial Arts instructor Steve Hartwig.

by Troy Landreville

tlandreville@langleyadvance.com

It took dogged persuasion from a friend before 40-yearold Bonnie Callewaert finally agreed to try a women’s selfdefence class at World Class Martial Arts.

“It took her a year to talk me into coming. She kept bugging me,” Callewaert said.

“I did nothing before that.”

Looking back, the mother of a five-year-old boy was glad she tried it out, even though, in her first foray into martial arts, she didn’t make it through the warm up.

Patience, from Callewaert as well as the instructors at World Class, paid off.

“I have increased my stamina and shed a few pounds at the same time,” said Callewaert, who admits she’s still “not there” in terms of meeting her fitness goals.

Callewaert, who now works part time at World Class, said the classes have been empowering and motivating, and have given her more confidence in everything she does.

“It is always hard, but anyone can benefit from this type of workout,” she said. “It’s a confidence builder. You can walk with your head held high. You don’t have to be afraid. I’m a stronger person, for sure.”

World Class chief instructor Steve Hartwig said that if you

want to have the workout but want to learn [self defence] at the same time.”

••• World Class has expanded over the past six months, bringing in nutritionists, two personal trainers, and a boxing coach. Its students range in age from four to over 60.

“A lot of people think martial arts is about martial arts, but in reality, martial arts is about people,” Hartwig said.

“It’s about serving the people and giving the people what they want in terms of developing their own skill sets.”

Hartwig noted that fitness, learning self defence, and an affinity for the art form are among the reasons why people come through the doors of the World Class gym, located at 10820530 Langley Bypass.

Hartwig, who makes annual trips to Thailand Troy Landreville/Langley Advance to sharpen his Muay Thai Victoria Conley hammered a punching bag while World Class Martial Arts chief instructor Steve Hartwig looked on recently. kickboxing skills, has trained in a mixture of martial arts disciplines for more peel back the layers of ladies Elaborating on his last “Doing something like the than 20 years. self defence classes, the “self thought, Hartwig added, “What women’s self-defence class He has trained in grappling, defence” element is just one of I find for empowering women is where they do the mock attacks jiu jitsu, Russian martial arts, many benefits. little incremental and… fight the guy off, that has and mixed martial arts (MMA), “It’s having a steps.

Siblings Chris and Caroline Sutherland put in personal best performances at the recent Fraser Valley high school track and field championships.

Battling extremely unsettled weather, Caroline, 16, covered a 5.69-metre distance in long jump.

Her effort is now the longest female jump in the Langley Mustangs record books.

Older brother Chris, 18, ran to a first-place finish in the 200 metres with a quick time of 22.37 seconds.

This broke his own club record set last year.

The Sutherlands attend Brookswood Secondary and are members of the Mustangs track and field club.

Mustangs’ newcomer Alexandra Connor of Elgin Park Secondary also set a club record for 14-year-old girls in the 800 metres, with a time of 2:23.60.

Other first-place finishes from Mustangs representing their schools came mainly in sprints and sprint hurdles.

Brennan Gademans from Langley Secondary won the senior boys 100 metres, and Stuart Ellenwood of Langley Secondary won the 400 metres.

by Troy Landreville

sports@langleyadvance.com

Langley bowler Cole Fischer took home a bronze medal from the Youth Bowling Canada (YBC) national five-pin championships, held May 1-3 in Gatineau, Quebec.

Fischer beat out the top junior male bowlers from nine other provinces to take third spot behind gold medalist Phillipe Butler from Northern Ontario and the silver medalist Evan Lacoursiere from Alberta.

The Langley Thunder looked well on their way to their first win of the Western Lacrosse Association season Thursday at Queen’s Park Arena in New Westminster.

The Thunder held a commanding 14-11 lead on the host Salmonbellies

in the late stages of game. Then, the ’Bellies scored three unanswered goals in the final five minutes and 10 seconds to tie the contest and send it into overtime.

The hosts went on to score the only three goals of the extra session en route to a 17-14 win, dropping Langley’s record to 0-3.

Garrett Billings led Langley’s point producers with five goals and four assists. Joel McCready scored four times while Chris Panos tallied twice and added three assists. Jake Kicknoswy, Ian Poole, and Alex Turner also scored for the Thunder.

Beach players at camp

Langley residents Nick Del Bianco and Mike Plantinga were among Canada’s top beach volleyball players who recently took part in an identification and selection camp hosted by Volleyball Canada and Volleyball BC at Spanish Beach East.

“The objective of the camp is to identify and select athletes who will have an immediate and long-term impact on the beach national team and also be selected for the U19-U21

world championships,” explained Lennard Krapp, the head coach of Canada’s beach volleyball team.

The camp started last Tuesday and ended with a tournament Sunday.

Burrards in town

Wednesday at the Langley Events Centre, the Langley Thunder will be searching for their first win of the 2010 season.

The Thunder, 0-3 to kick off the Western Lacrosse Association campaign, are hosting the Maple Ridge Burrards. Game time at the LEC is 7:45 p.m.

Size matters not!

Riders for the Cops for Cancer Tour de Valley come in all sizes, but they will all be riding about 900 kilometers this fall. The annual tour, from Tsawassen to Boston Bar and back, raises money for childhood cancer research, as well as support for the families of kids in treatment. Earlier this month, the team launched one of its monthly training rides from Walnut Grove, and looped from there to Fort Langley, and back. The team also includes prison staff, border guards, sheriffs, paramedics, and even a Langley Advance reporter, Matthew Claxton.
