Rain meant nothing to the dedicated Relay for Life fundraisers as they took to the track on Friday night.

Grey skies and drizzle could not keep the teams away from the Langley Relay for Life Friday evening.

More than 90 teams and in excess of 800 walkers took to the track at the McLeod Athletic Park to raise money for the Canadian Cancer Society’s sixth annual edition of the Langley Relay.

The Relay began at 7 p.m. with a lap by yellow-shirted cancer survivors, including Langley City Mayor Peter Fassbender.

It concluded 12 hours later, as umbrella-wielding walkers applauded the announcement that they had raised a total of $313,000.

The New Beginnings team, always a powerhouse at fundraising, collected $28,000 this year, winning an award for their efforts.

The top individual fundraiser was Fassbender, who took to the stage to accept his award looking a bit different.

“That’s not Peter, Peter has a moustache!” an audience member called out.

Fassbender had vowed to have his trademark moustache shaved off if he raised more than $3,000. He shot past that goal months ago, and by the start of Relay had collected $11,000.

“I realize now how many people hate my moustache,” he said.

He had the moustache removed in front of a cheering crowd at the kick off to the Relay.

Relay chair Howie Vickberg emphasized that the event was about three main themes.

“Relay is about celebration, remembering, and fighting back,” he said.

The celebration part included a variety of games and events throughout the night, including tug of war, karaoke, and a scavenger hunt. Many teams dressed up in costumes, including the Burnabee Babes who wore black and yellow outfits and antennae.

While the atmosphere is festive at most of the event, it is never forgotten that Relay is about cancer. At 10:30 p.m., the lights went out around the track, and

hundreds of luminaries – candles inside white paper bags – were lit. Each glowing bag has a name of someone who has died from, or is currently fighting cancer.

A moment of silence is followed by a mass walk around the track, following a piper.

To remind everyone where the money raised by Relay goes, researcher Dr. Annette McWilliams spoke to the crowd.

Originally from Australia, she moved to Canada thanks to the research funding available here. She’s now working on a project to diagnose lung cancer earlier.

“Lung cancer is the biggest cancer killer in the world,” McWilliams said.

But her idea – based on the fact that dogs seem able to detect lung cancer in their owners – seemed a bit crazy even to her.

“I didn’t think anyone would fund me, because the idea is so out there,” she said.

However, she’s now working on detecting lung cancer by sampling the breath of patients. If it works, it will be a new, non-invasive, inexpensive test that could help cancer patients get into treatment much earlier.

Local politicians, including Langley MLA Mary Polak and Langley MP Mark Warawa spoke about how cancer has touched their families and friends.

Township Mayor Rick Green was almost in tears as he thanked the Relay’s fundraisers. Last year, he announced at the event that his daughter had been diagnosed with a malignant melanoma.

Now, despite a scare over the winter, she seems to be on the road to recovery.

“It’s awful when it happens to your kids,” Green said.

Some teams will immediately begin raising money for next year’s Relay for Life. For some, it is a year-round effort.

What’s online At the corner of 80th Avenue and 208th Street, Carrie Randall and three-year-old son Cooper held up a “NoTruckRouteOn208. com” sign as members of the Willoughby Elementary community gathered around them.

Randall is among those battling the proposal to allow trucks free access along 208th Street.

Traffic

Council not fond of truck route plan A truck route on 208th is getting a thumb’s down from residents, and several councillors.

Randall worries that the road is too narrow for the amount of traffic it handles now. She’s seen more than a few accidents involving cars in the ditch in Willoughby.

Randall’s concerns are shared by more than a few people. So far more than 2,000 names have been gathered on a petition

He heard from people starting earlier this spring at one of his Mayor’s Forum events.

Putting a truck route on 208th Street would go against what the Township has already planned for the area, Richter said.

“We purposefully densified the neighbourhood plan in that area,” Richter said. One reason was to create a pedestrian-friendly neighbourhood.

Langley Township had considered adding 208th Street from a normal municipal road to a part of TransLink’s MRN. That would give the Township extra cash to pay for road repairs and maintenance.

Regardless of what happens, 208th Street is getting busier and is being widened to four lanes, piece by piece, according to Paul Cordeiro, the Township’s manager of transportation engineering.

While there is no specific timeline to complete the widening, the Township’s plan is ultimately to have the road be four lanes all the way from the 208th Street highway overpass to the 204th Street overpass at the border with Langley City.

Crews are currently widening a small stretch of the road between 62nd and 64th Avenues to four lanes, Cordeiro said. Parts of 208th, such as sections north of 80th, are already wide enough to host four lanes of traffic, but they haven’t been marked out as such.

Other sections will be widened as Willoughby develops, Cordeiro said.

Relay for Life

Boy who inspired local relay is all grown up One cancer survivor shared his surprisingly personal connection to the Langley Relay for Life.

by Matthew Claxton mclaxton@langleyadvance.com

Joel Olson is one of more than 800 people who raised money and walked in the Langley Relay for Life on May 28 and 29 at McLeod Athletic Park.

Like many of those who walk, Olson wears a yellow shirt, the mark of a cancer survivor. Now 28 years old, Olson was diagnosed with Ewing’s sarcoma, a bone cancer, when he was just 14.

“Half my life ago,” he said Friday, reflecting on the amount of time that has passed.

“It was difficult,” Olson said. “I was in Grade 9.” He couldn’t go to school, hang out with friends at the mall, or go to his family’s church. He underwent surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy.

“I looked like Mr. Clean for a year,” he joked. But after 10 months of treatment, Olson’s health improved. While doctors then said he might not even be able

Nadean Vonk, left, has taken over as team captain of Make Cancer Extinct from Joel Olson. to walk again, he now has no problem walking, even running, at the Relay.

With JOlson recovering and in good health after his treatment, his family wanted to do something positive.

In particular, Joel’s father Arne Olson was looking for a way to give back, and he heard about the Relay for Life.

At the time, Surrey had one, as did several other neighbouring communities.

But there was nothing in Langley.

It was Arne Olson who founded the event here, working with the Canadian Cancer Society on what has since become one of the largest Relay events in B.C. “It’s because of him that this is happening,” said Joel Olson. “It’s pretty neat.”

Joel has been a Relay participant since the first event six years ago. For five of those years, he’s been team captain of Make Cancer Extinct.

This year he stepped back from the captain’s role, letting his friend Nadean Vonk took over.

As someone who was there when the Langley Relay was created – who was the inspiration for its creation – Olson still finds Relay a powerful experience.

“The survivor lap was pretty emotional,” he said.

Like any other team, Make Cancer Extinct raised money with a burger night and auction. They put up a tent and waited out the rain when they weren’t walking. They decorated – in their case with a five-foot-tall wooden T. rex.

Like almost every other team, they expect to be back next year.

Relay for Life

Mayor trashes the ’stache for cancer charity The formerly moustachioed mayor raises a hair under $11,000.

by Heather Colpitts

hcolpitts@langleyadvance.com

“I realize now how many people hate my moustache,” Langley City Mayor Peter Fassbender joked just before is iconic facial hair was shaved Friday.

One of the highlights of Langley’s Relay for Life 12-hour marathon was Fassbender losing his moustache.

For a few weeks, he’s been collecting pledges for the removal, which garnered more support than expected.

His first fundraising target was $3,000 which was surpassed within about three

days. So he raised the bar higher and the community still exceeded expectations. The tally ended up being just shy of $11,000.

“He’s committed to help fight cancer one moustache at a time,” said emcee Howie Vickberg.

The levity doesn’t change the fact that the moustache shaving and all the other efforts by Relay for Life teams were to raise funds in the battle against cancer.

So far, Fassbender is winning his battle. When he was working in the private sector, his ad firm did health screening and at 55, he sat across from his doctor in 2002 as some of the most frightening words in the world were spoken.

Prostate cancer.

And it was an aggressive form.

Fassbender said if it hadn’t been discovered by “happenstance” he likely wouldn’t be alive.

“That’s why I’m such a strong advocate for men to put aside their egos and get tested,” Fassbender said.

For prostate cancer, men 40 and older with no history of cancer in the family should go for testing while men with a history should start before 40.

Fassbender said the ’stache was a small price to pay for helping raise funds to fight a disease that impacts so many.

Fassbender said he supports efforts like Relay for Life and the research of the Canadian Cancer Society for the simple fact that cancer is still a threat to people.

“I’m clean now for eight years, but I don’t know what tomorrow holds.”

Relay best way to walk in rain We’re all going to spend a fair amount of time being rained on. Hey, we live on the west coast, and that’s what it does here. But we can choose whether we whine about it, or whether we embrace being outdoors regardless.

Those who took part in the sixth annual Langley Relay for Life certainly had good reason to embrace the rain. They were raising money to fight cancer.

Walking around the track on Friday night, and into the early hours of Saturday morning, you heard a lot of the same comments: “Oh, it’s just a Scotch mist.”

“Could be worse.” “I think it’s lightening up.”

It did stop raining for several hours, but the rain resumed again by 3 a.m.

Perhaps the number of walkers on the track thinned out slightly, but those out there, huddled under umbrellas, or in hooded coats, or (incredibly) still running to keep warm, didn’t look put out.

Why? Why so cheerful?

Because with every lap, they felt like they were making a difference. Sure, the real work had been done over the days, weeks and months leading up to the Relay. The fundraising drives, the pub nights and car washes, those were all in the past. But for those on the track, the pledge was made to walk, to keep moving, to stay up all night.

As we’re reminded every year, to celebrate, remember, and to fight back.

Celebration is easy, even in the rain.

Remembrance comes as the luminaries are lit, and the names of those lost too soon to cancer are brightly lit: hundreds of names, new ones every year.

Fighting back is something the walkers do with every step, with every lap, with the pledge to be back next year.

Fort Langley

Apartments not right for Bedford There has been discussion about the configuration of the apartment blocks, but the real issue is whether there should be any apartment blocks on this site at all.

Would apartment blocks provide a net benefit to the Township over what is already permitted on this site?

The many people who have expressed concerns about the proposed development indicate that the answer is “no.”

This Fort Langley site has huge potential, which should not be wasted on apartment blocks.

Proposed truck route

208th turnout impressive expected,increase once the Golden Ears Bridge opened.

As predicted it has done so.

The traffic increase coming from Glover Road, up 216th Street, which turns into 83rd Avenue, travels well above the speed limit.

Getting to 208th Street is a problem presently not being addressed.

Once the cars reach 208th Street, they are brought to a stop by a traffic jam. I have repeatedly witnessed cars jolting out in front of “speeding” traffic onto 208th, often causing drivers to slam on their brakes to avoid an accident.

My concern now is what if a truck is behind a car, will they be able to stop? I think not.

The cars along 208th Street are often filled with mothers and their children returning or travelling to Willoughby Elementary on 80th Avenue.

Public safety is being put at risk.

This neighbourhood was designed to increase density and should not be subjected to a truck route.

I want to thank the Councillors Kositsky, Fox,

HST

Business lobbyists say it’s okay, so it must be

Dear editor, In her letter to the editor, [HST sweetened after election, May 21, Langley Advance] Ms. Polak explains that even though the HST is a monumental shift in the way the government will collect revenue, she knows that her decision is the “right” one, because small business has been lobbying for the HST for eight years.

So if business lobbyists tell her it is the “right” thing to do, that’s it? No one else gets a say?

Ms. Polak’s reasons for why this government made such a quick decision on the HST leaves me uncomfortable it is the “right” decision.

I guess we can all just “hope” the business owners and shareholders do the “right” thing and pass their tax savings on to the customer.

For the councillors who attended, I hope they took notice of the 400-plus petition signatures collected that evening alone against 208th being used as a truck route, and also of the one in support.

I understand that more than 1,800 signatures have already been turned into the mayor. Please consider the impact that such a change will have on the community that lives along 208th Street, and others who use it, when this matter comes before council.

‘No’ lobby

Dear editor, Rerouting truck traffic along 96th Avenue and 208th Street would certainly seem a disheartening plan for the families who live in the area.

How frightening for the parents of children and for seniors to have large, noisy trucks along the familiar street that they use for walking to and from the community centre, the park, the shops and the schools.

The area is residential or urban, not industrial, and was planned for community living.

A further problem in this plan is the environmental hazard of extra exhaust emissions caused by increased traffic and larger vehicles.

I hope the Township council will make a wise decision and vote “no” to this inappropriate plan.

Dear editor, I was very pleased to see the turnout Tuesday for the open house regarding the proposed truck route on 208th Street.

Somewhere between 400500 concerned citizens took time out of their busy lives to voice their concern and write detailed comments about the proposed plan to allow trucks on 208th Street.

The people who attended ranged from young married couples and their children, to seniors – some who have lived in Langley more than 75 years.

All came to the meeting pumped to stop this plan based on how it will forever change their neighbourhood.

For years now I have been asking for a traffic light at 208th Street and 83rd Avenue, and repeatedly I have been told there are no plans for a traffic light or a roundabout at that corner.

Two years ago, I spoke to Paul Codero at Township hall about my concerns regarding the traffic increase on both 83rd Avenue and 208th Street, which was occurring and

Dear editor, When Parklane acquired the Interfor site in Fort Langley, the zoning allowed residential construction on the entire area, except for a small waterfront parcel at the east end that was set aside for tourist and commercial uses.

Having completed the designated residential area, Parklane wants rezoning to allow construction of condominium apartment blocks on this small parcel as well.

They do have the right to develop their property, but do not have any right to automatic rezoning.

Rezoning should only be granted if the result is a net benefit to the Township.

Legumes indirectly help to feed inner-city kids.

by Roxanne Hooper rhooper@langleyadvance.com

eans, while being low in saturated fat and sodium, are high in vitamins and a great source of protein.

But who would have thought they’d also be such a great source of revenue for a local service group?

Soroptimists International of the Langleys has created a bean soup program that is gathering a lot of attention, explained organizer Karen Wandler.

It’s not only a fun project for member of the Soroptimists, but it also helps ensure that underprivileged children in this community receive a hot breakfast every school day.

Money earmarked from the foodbased fundraiser helps fund the Douglas Park Breakfast Program, among other Soroptimists endeavours, Wandler said.

For at least 15 years now, Soroptimists has borne the primary cost of the feeding program aimed at filling the tummies of inner-city kids in Langley with nutritious hot meals.

While the program currently costs $6,000 a year to run, a chunk of the funds now come from the Soroptimists’ bean soup program, Wandler explained.

Admittedly, this fundraiser was floated some 15 years ago, but for reasons unknown was abandoned, she said.

It was dusted off again last fall, and thus far has proven incredibly popular, raising $1,700 already.

Club members will get together for two or three hours at a time, one evening or afternoon, and package a mass quantity of the soups fixings.

Most of the basic ingredients for what is dubbed the award-winning Chateau Legume, includes a unique blend of spices and the beans that are packaged together in clear plastic bags.

“Everything is hand done, including the printing of the recipe labels, crafting the bows, and mixing the spices – which are included in a package insert,” Wandler explained.

Karen Wandler showed how simple it is to brew up the bean soup being sold as a food-related fundraiser by Soroptimists International of the Langleys.

Roxanne Hooper Langley Advance

“The bags of beans are presented in an attractive see-through bag with beans layered in a nice combination of colours. The small sachet of ‘secret Soroptimists spices’ is included in the bag, which is then tied up with a classy black bow and a list of ingredients plus a recipe included on a small label.”

They make terrific gifts for coworkers or hostesses, especially during the holiday season, Wandler said. “And I think it’s an economical product. Most anyone can afford $8… We are proud

of this product as it is both healthy and economical.”

With the warmer, summer-like weather upon us, Wandler said the Soroptimists are ramping down the fundraising program for now.

But they will be back in production at the end of September, hoping to sell even more this holiday season.

“All the money goes to a worthy cause,” Wandler said, noting the Soroptimists fund a number of local women’s and children’s charities.

Starting this fall, the bean soup can again be ordered online at: www. soroptimistsoflangley.ca, or from local Soroptimist members.

And, speaking of food-based fundraisers that help the Soroptimists fund the Douglas Park Breakfast Program and other initiatives, they held one of their annual fundraiser, Lobstermania, on Saturday for a sold-out crowd.

Down in the dumps

A dump truck flipped into the ditch in the 24100 block of Fraser Highway Friday just after 3 p.m., rupturing its gas tank. The Langley RCMP reported there were no serious injuries in the single-vehicle crash but the road was closed for quite a while as police investigated and other emergency services dealt with the fuel spill.

Crime

Car shot up at stop light

by Roxanne Hooper rhooper@langleyadvance.com

Police are still hunting for the occupants of a pickup truck that opened fire on another vehicle in downtown Langley City early this morning.

Police couldn’t comment on a motive for the shooting, but Langley RCMP Cpl. Holly Marks confirmed that no one was hurt in the shooting.

Mounties were called out early Sunday morning to 201A Street and Fraser Highway.

“No one was injured after multiple shots were fired at a northbound brown Kia when it stopped at the light at Fraser Highway,” Marks said.

“Witnesses advised the gunshots

came from a pickup truck that pulled up behind the Kia at the light,” Marks said.

The Kia fled east, the pickup west.

Police were called out at 12:40 a.m. to find several spent shell casings at the scene and the Kia riddled with bullets.

RCMP have spoken to the occupants of the Kia, whom Marks said are cooperating and not previously known to police.

Their car is now in police custody, being examined by the forensic identification team. The Serious Crime section is undertaking the investigation.

RCMP are unclear how many people were in the pickup at the time, and asking for anyone who could assist police in this investivation to call Langley RCMP at 604-532-3200. Or, to remain anonymous, call CrimeStoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

Langley Secondary students were treated to a Swahili lesson as they learned about development work in Tanzania.

Grade 11 students Chad De Boer and Brad Wehrens checked out a lion’s skull after a presentation by the Worldwide Family Restoration Society, which does humanitarian work in Tanzania.

Meanwhile, retired teacher Ben Ganz (inset) showed artifacts he collected when he lived in Tanzania during the 1960s while Paul Mtatiro explained about life in the impoverished nation.

The right place for quality.

What’s the difference between a peasant and a farmer?

A peasant is an impoverished person who must rely on nature to grow food and can only gather up what can be found.

A farmer has tools and knowhow to work the land, including use of irrigation.

That’s the lesson for several Langley Secondary School students recently, when the Worldwide Family Restoration Society gave a presentation on its humanitarian and development work.

The society is working to raise money to build a water well in Chanika, a village of 10,000 in Tanzania, where the group has been working for six years.

LSS social studies teacher Charles McGill became part of the group a couple of years ago and had its leaders do a presentation for several classes to teach them about the world beyond Langley.

McGill’s Swahili instructor is one of the leaders of the society and McGill has been to Chanika.

“After my visit to Africa three years ago to help build our Langley Secondary Schools sponsored school in Uganda, I visited Tanzania as a guest of my Swahili instructor,” he said.

What he encountered there prompted him to get involved.

“I saw that the most basic necessity of life, namely water, was unattainable by many and the struggle to survive was on a daily basis for this community,” he said.

He and others in the group take over school supplies, and what they can in their luggage when

they travel but wanted to do more. They have raised about $6,000 of the $10,000 needed to provide the village with a well.

The well will provide safe drinking water and the ability to irrigate crops so they can grow food for their families and enough to sell at market to improve their livelihoods.

“Our goal is to help these families help themselves,” he added.

McGill explained that Chanika is like many Tanzanian villages

Catherine Hoy lit a luminary in honour of Stan Friesen, a friend and fellow Relayer, who lost his battle with cancer a day before Relay 2010.

Your Local Quality Assured Collision Centre.

Serving Langley since 1975.

?

Catherine Hoy walked a little slower than usual, and spent a lot more time in reflection during Friday night’s Relay for Life fundraiser at McLeod Athletic Park.

She and a team of about 30 other relayers from South Langley Church all had heavy hearts that night, mourning the loss of friend and fellow Relayer Stan Friesen. Cancer claimed Friesen the day before Relay.

Did you know?

COMMUNITY DAY

PARADE & CELEBRATION

As many as 3128 athletes, 656 coaches, and 397 officials from across BC will attend the Games.

Friesen was a member of the church congregation who quickly volunteered with set up and tear down at Relay when Hoy first introduced the concept to South Langley Church three years ago.

“My heart is heavy, but when we walk tonight, you’ll be in our hearts,” she said to Friesen, lighting a luminary in his memory.

Relay was definitely a time to reflect on Friesen, as well as his sister, who died of cancer shortly after last year’s Relay.

But it was also a time to celebrate the lives of those who lost, as well as the victories of those who have survived this disease, said Hoy, a 56-year-old Fort Langley workplace chaplain.

“I feel that this event is meaninful in many ways. People whose lives have been affected by cancer can feel encouraged…

We’re doing this for them. We’re fighting alongside them.”

This is Hoy’s fourth year at the Langley Relay.

Like so many, she joined an existing team the first time, then proceeded to spearhead the creation of the South Langley Church teams each year since.

The first time out, the church fielded 20 people divided into two teams. The last two years, there have been 30 people, divided into three teams.

“The sad part is that a whole generation that can support and provide the physical labour to support families are dead due to HIV,” he said. “The remaining group are children and older people, usually grandparents.”

Looking Grad marked by arson attempt at ASS back…

Langley’s history, as recorded in the files of the Langley Advance.

Seventy Years Ago

MAY 30, 1940

• Nearly 1,000 men in Langley joined the home defence force.

• D.M. Matheson was appointed municipal engineer.

Sixty Year Ago • The Grove Theatre opened

Fifty Years Ago

JUNE 2, 1960

• After successfully drilling into a plentiful water supply in Brookswood, Langley City asked the Township for an easement to build a waterline into the City.

Reeve Bill Poppy, however, said the Township of Langley would first have to ensure that the City’s well wouldn’t lower the water table in the Brookswood area.

Forty Years Ago

JUNE 4, 1970

• On the evening of graduation ceremonies, an attempt was made to set fire to Aldergrove Secondary School. The intended disaster fizzled out, with minor damage to one room. Police reported that two gasolinefilled bottles were hurled through the windows into the room used as the principal’s office.

Thirty Years Ago

JUNE 4, 1980

• Alderman Aubrey Searle asked Langley City council to dissolve the Langley City Development Corporation.

• Langley School Board expressed fears that there would be no traffic lights

at the new junction at 56th Avenue created by the Langley Bypass extension.

Twenty Years Ago

MAY 30, 1990

• Nine girls were competing for the Miss Langley title.

• Langley City Mayor Joe Lopushinsky lashed out at his council, calling some councillors liars and others discourteous, responding to acerbic attacks against him at a special budget meeting two weeks earlier.

Ten Years Ago

MAY 30, 2000

• A comparison made by the Langley Advance indicated that Township property owners fared far better than their City counterparts when the taxman

came knocking at the door. Property taxes on a Langley City home valued at $211,700 amounted to $2,855.37, while just a few doors down, the tax bill on a Township home valued at $211,300 was $2,085.40.

Commercial and industrial taxes were far lower in the City, however.

JUNE 2, 2000

• Township council made changes to the commercial zoning at the proposed 200th Street interchange upgrade, allowing more and larger options, in deference to interchange developer BA Blacktop’s wish to recoup its costs, although council still opposed the big box stores BA wanted.

Do you know these people?

This is one of hundreds of old, unlabeled Langley Advance photos – mostly from the 1950s and 1960s – “filed” away in boxes for years. They were recently given to the archives at Langley Centennial Museum, with hopes of helping to identify where and when they were taken, and who’s in the pictures.

An evolving relationship between local police and probation officers is impacting on this community’s criminal element.

Monitoring low-, medium-, and highlevel gang activity was never even considered when Langley RCMP and the local probation office first began developing an informal information-sharing relationship a few years back.

But it’s definitely been an added bonus ever since, said Const. Darren Forsyth, the Mounties’ liaison officer with probation.

He noted that this segment of the population has felt the squeeze, since the agencies began teaming up more.

Sharing information about individuals on probation is a “great method” to quell potential criminal behaviour – whether it’s gang-related or not – explained Forsyth, who joined Langley’s Community Policing – Crime Reduction Unit a year and a half ago.

Due to his own personal value system and a keen interest in the overall justice system, Forsyth has taken what was once an informal Langley RCMP partnership with local probation to a new level – one not seen in most communities, he noted.

Now, about 60 to 70 per cent of his job is consumed by liaison work – serving as a go-between with probation officers at the local community corrections office and the RCMP detachment’s crime analyst, as well as fellow Mounties on the streets.

He believes the relationship is having a significant impact on criminal activity in Langley. Together, they’re identifying individuals who demonstrate a high risk of reoffending, and monitoring their activities.

Recognizing the tag-team efforts, he said these individuals on probation tend to either be better behaved, or – if they fail to comply with their court ordered conditions – find themselves more likely to be back behind bars.

“Working together, we’re another safety net in the community,” Forsyth said. “…and we’re working together to try to tighten that net up.”

Since the criminal agencies don’t work on the same computerized information systems, relationship building between the two agencies has been integral.

It’s all about sharing “intel,” Forsyth said, noting police and probation officers alike show a real passion for keeping the community safe.

It should come as no surprise to anyone that some individuals on probation in this community are repeat offenders who are well known in the criminal justice system, and some have varying levels of gang affiliations.

But probation officers do not track offender files based on gang affiliation, emphasized Jess Gunnarson, a spokesman for BC Correction.

That said, he noted peer association is often identified as an “important factor in their assessment of risk, and needs.”

Gunnarson qualified that known associates are only one factor taken into consideration when managing an “offenders” living in the community on probation.

It’s the probation officer’s responsibility to supervise the person in accordance with court ordered conditions such as curfew, abstinence from drugs and alcohol, or area restrictions.

“Police do their work at the front end of the criminal justice system; probation officers are responsible for managing offenders at the back-end of the system, after individuals have been charged and/or convicted,” Gunnarson explained.

He did, however, acknowledge the “unique” relationship that exists in Langley between RCMP and Community Corrections, but added that probation officers collaborate with multiple criminal justice partners.

Sharing information is important in curbing problem behaviour, both agreed, Gunnarson clarifying that it still must to be done in accordance with privacy laws.

Thunder bump slump after edging Adanacs Five games into the WLA season, Langley delivered in what was arguably a ‘must-win’ situation.

Pressure from Central Oregon Hotshots defenders didn’t faze B.C. Titans ball carrier Chad Troyer as he went for a shot Sunday at the Langley Events Centre. The host Titans blew out the Hotshots 132-101 to even their record to 7-7 thus far in the International Basketball League season.

Weekend perfection = .500 record The B.C. Titans enjoyed a perfect weekend to even their International Basketball League record to 7-7.

The Titans put in a fine defensive effort in Tacoma, Wash., Saturday, to beat the host Tide 107-88.

Leading the way for the Titans was new point guard Ira Graham and returnee Josh Washington, each with 22 points.

Sunday afternoon, with IBL Commissioner Mikal Dulio looking on, the Titans cruised to a 132-101 win over the Central Oregon

Hotshots at the Langley Events Centre (LEC).

Washington went eight for 13 from three-point range on his way to a 30-point outing.

He was named player of the game.

Another Titan who couldn’t miss was Chad Troyer, who tacked on 25 points to his team’s total.

“This team is unbeatable the way they played today, much better than last year’s team,” Dulio said, regarding the B.C. squad. “The Titans are a contender for the IBL championship.”

DREAM,

Titans head coach Scott Allen, back from a mission trip with Hoops for Hope, is confident heading into Friday’s game against the 10-4 Vancouver Volcanoes in Vancouver, Wash.

“We beat them twice earlier this season and our team is coming together more,” Allen said. “We’re ready for Vancouver.”

The Titans return home Sunday for a re-match with Central Oregon, featuring a mascot challenge at halftime. Tip-off is 3 p.m. at the LEC.

Coquitlam led 3-2 after the first period, but was outscored 8-4 in the middle frame.

The Adanacs scored four goals to the Thunder’s three in the final period of play.

Gators dominate Valley The Walnut Grove track athletes hope to carry their momentum into this weekend’s provincial championships.

How “sweep” it was last month for the Walnut Grove Secondary track and field team.

The Gators swept all divisions during the Upper Fraser Valley championships meet May 5-6 at Abbotsford’s Rotary Stadium, bringing home the Grade 8, junior, and senior team trophies, as well as the school aggregate trophy.

The junior title was the first for Walnut Grove in its history.

Many key performances led to the team titles, led by Walnut Grove’s relay teams.

On an individual note, Sean Burnett was named male junior athlete of the meet after he won the 800m, 1500m, and 1500m steeplechase events.

Success spilled over to the Fraser Valley championships, also held at Rotary Stadium May 17-20.

Of a possible 10 championship banners, Walnut Grove brought home five of them: Grade 8 girls; overall Grade 8 (girls & boys combined); junior girls; senior girls; and overall senior (girls and boys combined).

There were many highlights for the Gators at the Fraser Valley meet.

The Gators finished with 10 golds, 11 silvers, and 10 bronzes for a total of 30 medals. The next closest school had 18.

The girls side of the program proved the Gators’ strength.

Ashley Windsor was named junior female athlete of the meet after she captured the 800m (with a new championship record time) and 1500m, while finishing second in the 400m.

She was also named as the Dave Nichols Memorial Trophy recipient as most inspirational athlete of the meet.

The meet served as a qualifier for this weekend’s B.C. championships at Swangard Stadium. The following Gators are moving on to the provincials: • Sean Burnett in the 1500m; • Braeden Donnelly in the 2000m steeplechase; • Samantha Gillis in the 1500m steeplechase; • Russell Gore in long jump; • Taryn McCulloch in the 1500m steeplechase; • Brett Parker in javelin; • Stuart Pope in javelin; • Andrea Robinson in the 400m hurdles; • Shelby Smithson in the high jump and heptathlon; • Jade Vaughan in the 400m; • Matthew Wearmouth in triple jump; and • Ashley Windsor in 800m and 1500m.

Gators relay teams bound for the B.C.’s include the boys 4x100m relay squad, boys 4x400m relay A and B teams, and the girls 4x400m relay A and B teams.

The Gators have a trio of athletes on the alternate list, waiting to hear if they are in.

Walnut Grove entered 13 individuals and six relay teams into the Grade 8/9 division at the B.C. competition.

Jack Froese is heading up security for the B.C. Summer Games in Langley.

Jack Froese jokes that his position as head of security for the B.C. Summer Games isn’t so much “volunteer” as “voluntold.”

A former Vancouver police officer, Froese was talked into taking up the job by Mayor Rick Green and David Esworthy. He’s jumped in with both feet, organizing the efforts to keep the Games functioning both safely and smoothly.

The secret to creating a good security team is simple, Froese said.

“It’s surrounding yourself with really good people.”

To head up his various subcommittees, he’s tapped firefighters, police dispatchers, and several former police officers.

They’ll oversee about 400 volunteers during the Games, and work closely with the Langley RCMP. While the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics saw police preparing for anything up to and including a terrorist attack, security for the B.C. Summer Games is expected to be considerably more mellow.

“We call it ‘small s security,’” Froese said.

Among other duties, they’ll conduct regular night patrols of the sports

venues, equipment storceremonies, and athlete age areas, and the schools dances. and other venues where In addition, they’ll visiting athletes are sleepwatch out for the kind of ing. problems that crop up at They’ll any public conduct site event: lost security by children, “It’s day, make rowdy surrounding sure parking teenagers, yourself with at venues is and securwell managed, ity checks really good and make sure on volpeople.” buses with unteers athletes and who’ll Jack Froese coaches can work come and go closely quickly. with youths.

They’ll organize the For anything more event security for the serious, such as theft of opening and closing equipment or vandalism,

the RCMP will be called in.

Froese said he’s already received a lot of help from the Langley RCMP, and especially from the auxiliary officers program.

“I don’t think we could do it without them,” he said. Auxiliary officers are volunteers who undertake some policing duties in their free time.

••• The Summer Games will be held July 22 to 25 in Langley and neighbouring communities. More athletes will be involved in these Games than competed in the recent Olympics.
