Daniel Nuessler, Grade 9, and Grade 10 student Kody Ashdown from Apex Secondary helped out at the Big-R Pumpkin Patch this past weekend. The Rotary Club of Langley held its first fall fair and plans to make it an annual event based on its success. Most popular were the hayrides but there was also pumpkin sales, facepainting by Apex students, carnival games, a plant sale, a petting zoo, and treats. Proceeds will go to the Langley School Foundation.

Months of preparations and behind the scenes work have come to fruition with the opening of Langley’s first centre to aid homeless teenagers. Beat the Streets is a drop-in facility on 272nd Street, just north of Fraser Highway in downtown Aldergrove. A partnership between several community groups, the new centre will provide a safe space where teenagers who are at risk of, or actually living on the streets, can find a safe haven. Teenaged homelessness often doesn’t look like the familiar adult version, said Lynne Topham, with Aldergrove Neighbourhood Services. “Maybe they’re couch-surfing with friends, maybe they’re living in garages,” she said. While they may not be living on the streets, they often can’t go home.
Matthew Claxton/Langley Advance
Dignitaries who officially opened the Beat the Streets drop in centre were, left to right, Township Councillor Charlie Fox, Len Murdoch of Centrepoint Community Services, Mayor Rick Green, and Stan Duckworth with FAYSS. The reasons for that can vary widely, from family breakdown to poverty, from drug
addiction to abuse. “A lot of them don’t want to be in a foster care situation,” Topham said. They’re often forced to migrate to larger urban centres like Vancouver, where there are more services for them. Even in Langley, the Gateway of Hope shelter is for adults only. While Beat the Streets can’t offer them overnight shelter, the staff and volunteers there will offer meals, hot showers, clothing, computers to use, and access to support staff. If the kids need to get off the streets for a night, staff can connect them with outreach workers in Abbotsford or Surrey. If they want to go home, the centre can help work to reconcile them with their families. Loren Roberts, a program co-ordinator for the shelter, said there will be programming Wednesdays through Fridays, with expansion to other days thanks to other volunteers and groups coming on board the project. Some of the programs, including a clothing repair service, have already started. Healthy living classes, teaching the kids how to eat healthy, will be coming up soon. There will also be fun stuff to keep the kids coming back, such as DJ classes, Roberts said.

Evictions unjust, say RV tenants What’s online News
Flu vaccines here
The provincial government is urging people to get a tiny poke with a needle to avoid suffering through a miserable flu this winter. The seasonal influenza vaccine campaign started Monday at clinics across British Columbia. The vaccine will be free for those most at risk of serious complications from the virus. For those not at risk, the vaccine will be available for a small fee. The H1N1 flu strain is not expected to be very serious this year. • More online

Transit
TransLink unveils regional rapid transit options The public got a chance to comment on the future of rail or bus service in Surrey and Langley City. by Matthew Claxton mclaxton@langleyadvance.com
TransLink has offered up a series of options as it begins public consultation on its Surrey Rapid Transit Study.
On Thursday, more than 20 local transit advocates, including several members of VALTAC and South Fraser OnTrax, gathered to talk over the future of transit between urban Surrey, White Rock, and Langley City. “We know there’s a hunger for rapid transit expansion south of the Fraser River,” said project director Jeff Busby. As transit service increases in Surrey, it quickly fills up, showing how much pent up demand remains, he said. Busby said that since 2008, TransLink has
increased bus service hours by about 35 per cent in the South of the Fraser area. The options under consideration include extending SkyTrain, creating a variety of routes for at-grade light rail systems, or even just massively increasing the number and frequency of buses on the road. Any other option must be shown to be an improvement over this so-called “best bus” option. More forums will be held in Surrey in the next few weeks.

Students help out animal shelter Aldergrove Middle schoolers are giving support to abandoned pets. by Matthew Claxton mclaxton@langleyadvance.com
Students from Betty Gilbert Middle School got their hands dirty helping out at the Patti Dale Animal Shelter on Friday. The Grade 7 students voted this year to make the Langley Animal Protection Society (LAPS) which runs the shelter, their charity of choice. “Every classroom has to pick a community service,” said teacher Carrie LaPierre. So far the kids had already met LAPS director Sean Baker at their school, and raised money to buy a new kitten scale for the shelter. On Friday they headed down to LAPS for a tour and a few hours of weeding, raking leaves, and other outdoor work.
Matthew Claxton/Langley Advance
Tavares Demelo, a Grade 7 student at Betty Gilbert Middle School, raked leaves for LAPS. The students learned a few facts about LAPS, including its $60,000 annual vet bill, or the fact that it gets no public funding to care for abandoned or lost animals.
“I was surprised at how many dogs they take in a year,” said Sierra Gustafson, one of the students helping out. Gustafson comes from a two-dog family, but it was her first time visiting the shelter. Some students come with a personal connection to LAPS. Tavares Demelo voted for LAPS to be his class’s charity for that reason. “My dad knew Patti Dale,” Demelo said. The late Dale was a driving force behind creating a new animal care charity in Langley, and the shelter was named in her honour not long after she died. “I’ve never had a pet, but I love all pets,” Demelo said. Jayne Nelson of LAPS was excited to have the young crew of helpers. LAPS typically puts all its staff and volunteers to work with their animals, leaving little time for weeding or raking. “They’ve been able to do in a few hours what we have not been able to do all summer,” she said.

Education
School trustees pledges to shape up by Heather Colpitts
hcolpitts@langleyadvance.com
The Langley School Board is pledging to do a better job in overseeing local public education. The district released its seven-page action plan outlining how it plans to implement the recommendations from the Auditor General’s report. The plan points to steps the district has already taken to improve trustee governance, such as the creation of the audit committee to provide more fiscal information more often to the board. The action plan also says the board will do a better job long-term planning as well as communicating within the district and with the community. “The board recognizes public meetings are an opportunity for the community and key stakeholders to attend a pubic [sic] meeting and observe the board as it con-
ducts its business and to ask questions of the board at the end of the meeting,” the action plan says. “Trustees are committed to holding public meetings which are conducted with decorum and respect for the proceedings.” The plan was made public Thursday, and the president of the Langley Teachers’ Association said she’s only had a cursory read that day. That promise to be better communicators doesn’t mesh with the board’s recent decision to restructure question period at its monthly school board meetings, said Susan Fonseca. Fonseca said the board will no longer allow people to ask questions directly. People must write out their questions, which will be read by a senior staffer. “It conflicts right away with what they’re saying,” she commented. Fonseca said she was concerned, because the decision to alter the public question period was not made during the public portion of a meeting. The LTA wrote to the board about the issue and didn’t receive a reply, so it has forwarded a copy to the Auditor General.

Mothers who have lost young children or miscarried met to share their grief and hope on Friday. The Mourning Mothers support group has been meeting since the 1990s, and for the past eight years has held an annual ceremony in the fall for families to talk about their loss, and to celebrate the children they knew only briefly. Organizer Susan Simmons said the plaque and “baby tree” in Langley Lawn Cemetery provides a place to remember young lives lost too soon. “Grieving is hard work and that needs to be recognized,” Simmons said. The ceremony was attended by about a dozen people, including fathers. The participants placed cloth butterflies on the tree and released a flock of doves.

It’s time again to honour the people who helped build Langley. The annual Pioneer Banquet will be held on Friday, Nov. 19 at the Langley Events Centre. As always, it is a part of the Douglas Day celebrations that mark the anniversary of the creation of British Columbia. The banquet is held for those deemed pioneers. They are seniors 70 years or older, who currently live in Langley City or Township and have lived in the community for 60 years or more. Last year, approximately 200 pioneers attended the dinner. This year, organizers are hoping to find the new people who are eligible, having passed the requirements in the last 365 days. Entertainment at this year’s dinner will be provided by the Mad Celts, who will perform with fiddles and pipes, among other instruments. Call organizer Lisa Egan for more information about attending the banquet, at 604-5336148.

Langley and Surrey firefighters helped free a distressed and stuck horse at a farm on the municipal border Sunday morning. The owners woke up Sunday and found their horse had wandered down to a pond on a low point of their property in the 1600 block of 196th Street. It had waded into the mud and couldn’t back out. Firefighters from Langley Township and Surrey brought their large animal rescue straps, a veterinarian, and a tow truck, said Township assistant chief Bruce Ferugson. The straps went around the horse, and when the vet gave word that the animal was secure and calm, the tow truck pulled it free. It took about two hours to get the animal out of the pond, Ferguson said. It isn’t known how long the horse had been stuck there before its owners found it. Langley firefighters take part in a number of large animal rescues every year.

Wasting best Ranking among the top 10 in the world is usually an amazing accomplishment – but not when it comes to the data released earlier this week. According to WWF International’s Living Planet Report, Canada has the dubious distinction of ranking No. 7 among countries with the largest ecological footprints. United Arab Emirates ranks first, followed by Qatar, Denmark, Belgium, the U.S., and Estonia. Australia, Kuwait and Ireland round out the top 10. Canadians, according to the report, consume resources at a rate 2.5 times higher than that of the average global citizen. While that average world citizen uses 2.7 global hectares of land and water, a typical Canadian hogs seven. The capacity of Earth’s ecosystems to sustain the current population, according to WWF International, is a mere 1.8 global hectares of land and water per person. Half of our large ecological footprint apparently comes from fossil fuel consumption. Of course, it’s probably a lot easier to have a small carbon footprint in Paris or Tokyo than in a sprawling Canadian city like Calgary. But at the rate the world’s population is using up resources, we already need 1.5 planets to sustain the pace of consumption. And rates in rapidly developing countries like India and China will likely grow exponentially in coming years, making the problem more severe. For those of us in the developed, resource-hogging world, there are relatively easy ways to reduce individual ecological footprints, such as composting, taking transit, and cutting back to one family car. But there are also things we could do that most politicians won’t tout as solutions, for instance eating a plant-based diet and having fewer children. As the situation gets more dire, expect those options to enter the mainstream dialogue.

Appreciation
Langley great place to live
Dear Editor, Langley is a great place to live. I have a lot to be thankful for. On Saturday morning last, I was overwhelmed when so many of my neighbours came running to see if we needed help. My family and I were standing in the drizzle of rain at the end of our driveway, helplessly watching my pickup burn up in flames. Yeah, it was totalled, the inside beyond recognition, and it was so hot that it started several things around it on fire, and melted the siding on the side of the house. One of the neighbours took our two pets to her house to look after them. Another lady, whom we have only waved at in the past, simply put her arms around my daughter, who was sobbing uncontrollably. She also called 911, even though we had done that already. All of them asked if they could help out in any way. Our neighbours have touched us deeply. Then there is the Langley City fire department. Though it seemed like it was an eternity, they were there within minutes. Not
only were they professional, knocking the fire out in minutes and saving our home, they were friendly and had an incredible and appropriate sense of humour. In the seriousness of the moment, they actually made me smile. The captain was helpful and gave me advice on what to do next, as we have never had a fire before. Then there’s another one of my neighbours: an off-duty fire captain who came over as soon as he saw the black smoke, and busily got to his job on his day off. Our thanks for all the times they put themselves in danger to save our lives and our possessions. Miraculously, none of us – our pets, our neighbour’s property, or the firefighters – were hurt. It could have been a lot worse. As we celebrated Thanksgiving, this family gave thanks to God for all of them, and we will pray for their safety and protection as they continue to do their job. Like I said, Langley is a great place to live! Terry Friesen, Langley
Fort Langley
High time for waterfront planning Fort Langley
Nothing would keep land idle Dear Editor, “Let ParkLane do it,” says Mr. Clark [Oct. 8 Letters, Langley Advance]. I concur, since the game is already in overtime. But the best wishes in the world will not make things happen, unless other conditions are met. A developer/builder may have no wish at all to become a landlord. That means owner/operators must be found first, before any construction takes place. Calling the site “World Class” or “Destination” may please a few egos, but as the man said, “Show me your money first.” If ParkLane’s current proposal is turned down, what happens next? This is the concern: that nothing happens for some times. It is easy to imagine that, five years from now, that piece of land could still sit idle, (possibly increasing in value, all the same). Bernard Mourier, Fort Langley [Note: A fuller version is online: www.langleyadvance.com.]
Taxation
HST puts boots to old receipt
Dear Editor, Looking back, in 2001 we had seven per cent GST plus seven per cent PST. An old A.J. Brooks June 2001 receipt for a pair of expensive boots I bought back then had them priced at $379 plus seven per cent GST and another seven per cent PST, and totalled $432.06. Today a pair priced the same, plus HST at 12 per cent comes to $424.48, for a saving of $7.58. Larri Woodrow, Walnut Grove
Mufford overpass
Development prospects real
Dear Editor, One of the main farms involved [in the Mufford/Glover overpass proposal] is for sale (rumoured to have been sold) for $17 million, and read the description: “Great potential for future rezoning and development.” I couldn’t make that stuff up; unlike “tens of thousands of supporters,” this is real.

historic ambience, its cultural and commercial offerings, and its unique location alongside the beautiful Bedford Channel. The value of Fort Langley’s heritage and recreational qualities are increasingly recognized by all Lower Mainland communities and by the provincial government. So, what’s changing? The Bedford Landing development has yet to finish developing the most critical part of the lands. ParkLane is proposing changes to the bylaw that alters use and density of this component of land. New owners in Bedford Landing include many who are concerned about this change… all new owners should be heard. Throughout the years, citizens have had workshops and town hall meetings to manage the changes that inevitably come. Increasing river access has been a key part of these efforts, and was incorporated in the bylaw defining development of Bedford Landing. But we believe this legacy is at risk. There is need for a proper waterfront plan. The Fort Langley Community Association wishes to work with all stakeholders to ensure Fort Langley’s legacy is retained, and that the waterfront lands are developed to enhance waterfront use and enjoyment.

They’re going door-to-door on Saturday collecting non-perishable food for Langley’s less fortunate, explained founder and event organizer Dave Backie. About 2,500 brown paper bags have been landing on Fort Langley residents’ doorsteps for the past few days, and now firefighters are gearing up for their door-to-door blitz Saturday morning. They’ll stop at any homes where residents have stocked those brown bags with food, and set them back out on the stoop for collection, Backie explained. Fire & Food was initiated to help restock the dwindling cupboards of Langley’s Salvation Army’s food

A removable partial denture is a dental appliance that replaces single or multiple missing teeth. It can be attached to teeth with clasps or it can be attached to teeth with crowns and precision attachments. Partial dentures can have a metal framework, acrylic resin base or they can be made with flexible resin with invisible clasps.
A partial is vital to restore the mouth to its original state.

prevent your remaining teeth from changing position by drifting into the surrounding spaces.
Individuals who currently wear a full upper denture and are missing some lower natural teeth would have great success using a lower partial denture. Upper dentures that are not supported by lower teeth can cause a host of problems. For these individuals, this may result in a poor fitting upper denture causing an increase in bone loss, tissue growth and ‘sore spots’. A correctly fitting denture results when the biting and chewing surfaces work together in perfect balance.
The Denturists at Brookswood Denture Clinic will work in co-ordination with your dentist to make sure you receive the best possible dental care.

A free workshop in Langley this Friday will teach people that pain isn’t something they must endure as a natural part of living. The Arthritis Society of B.C. and the Yukon is offering the Overcome Pain and Live Well Again workshop Oct. 22 at the Renaissance Retirement Resort. Pain is a problem for most people with arthritis and for many it’s their number one concern. “Close to 30 per cent of Canadians suffer from chronic pain, with about 20 per cent reporting they experience moderate to severe pain on a daily basis,” explained Neil Pearson, a clinical assistant professor at UBC and physical therapist. Pearson will share his pain self-management techniques at the workshop which runs 2-4 p.m. Learn new ways to decrease pain, how pain control relies on body and mind approaches, how to improve quality of life, and self-management techniques. He noted that a person living with chronic pain will benefit from an understanding of how their body works and how it changes when there’s pain. “When we begin to understand how and why some-

thing works and just how adaptable our nervous system is, we can then begin to practice pain self-management techniques in a new and better way,” Pearson said. “Usually the first step is to gain a modern understanding of pain biology and the second is to start to practice breathing techniques.” That understanding can lead to a positive shift in how people experience pain. “I know that it’s difficult and at times even impossible when the pain is severe,” he noted. However, when we find a way for people to successfully work on their pain self-management, the positive results can be extraordinary.” The Arthritis Society puts on a number of public forums that allow the public to hear from experts like Pearson. People are asked to register in advance by calling 604-714-5550 and the session is geared to arthritis sufferers, their loved ones, and caregivers. The workshop is at 6676 203 St. More about the Arthritis Society can be found at www.arthritis.ca or people can call the society’s Fraser Arthritis Centre in Langley at 604-5149902.

Two local seniors charities benefit from a wild west fundraiser held Saturday at Coast Hotel. Langleyites were led to believe this town isn’t big enough for two mayors – but apparently it is. At least that was the premise of an improv game show at Coast Hotel Saturday night, where Langley’s two mayors showed off in a showdown to raise money for two local charities. Langley City Mayor Peter Fassbender and Langley Township Mayor Rick Green demonstrated just how much hot air they had, and how much they each know about local trivia during the 13th annual Crabfest, held by the Langley Sunrise Rotary Club. The showdown kept the 260-member audience – and the mayors – in stitches and ended in a draw. But the event – which had a Wild West theme – far exceed all expectation when it came to providing fun and raising funds, said posse chair Wayne Patterson. Thanks to a balloon pop, silent auction, 50/50, ring draw and other initatives, this year’s event raised more than $20,000, that will be split between the Langley Meals on Wheels and Langley Lodge – this year’s charities of choice.

Little ones having a ball this fall Eight was enough by Troy Landreville
sports@langleyadvance.com
Thanks to a team of parent volunteers, there’s a new twist to the well-worn “boys of summer” colloquialism. In Langley City, you can now call them the boys, and occasional girl, of fall. Langley Baseball currently has 55 youngsters playing fall blastball in the four- and five-year-old age bracket, and a total of 114 players in various age groups gracing local ball fields. This represents 20 per cent of the players who play baseball in Langley during the regular season. On Monday nights from 5-6 p.m.
at City Park, Langley Baseball’s youngest players work on skills including hitting, base running, fielding, and throwing.
Five-yearold batter Kai Fyke kept his eye on the whiffle ball recently at City Park.

Langley Baseball president Dan McLaren said that of the 93 players who took part in blastball (4/5 year old division) from March to June, 55 continued on to “fall ball.” “They just come out to enjoy the program and work on their skills,” said McLaren, who has been with the club since 1988 and was elected president this past June. “The coaches have been “They taught their just come skill sets and they’re now out to teaching the enjoy the kids. We’re seeing kids program do a lot better and work catching, a lot on their better running, a lot better hitskills.” ting. You only Dan McLaren improve by practise.” A recent session had 12 blastball coaches positioned at various stations, and a few coaches helping out seven-year-old players on a nearby diamond. Fall ball started Sept. 7 for players in the 1998 and ’99 birth years. Practices are being held Tuesdays and Thursdays with games on Saturdays and Sundays. Fall baseball runs until the weather dictates otherwise.

…continued from page A23 The Chiefs have been battling breast cancer all month and look to continue their “pink streak” Thursday and Saturday versus their two cross-town rivals, the Coquitlam Express and Surrey Eagles. Thursday, the Chiefs host the Express at the Langley Events Centre (LEC). Game time is 7 p.m. On Saturday, the Eagles visit the LEC to take on the Chiefs, also starting at 7 p.m. Fans who come to games at the LEC this month can donate money to support the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation and be entered to win one of the Chiefs’ pink, game-worn jerseys following Saturday’s game. The jerseys were donated by Darnell & Company Lawyers, Frosting Cupcakery, Quantum Speed, Otter Co-Op, and the Surrey Golf and Country Club with all proceeds raised donated to the foundation. “This is an important month for us and it is the first time we have really gotten behind a cause like this, and I think the community has responded phenomenally,” said Chiefs head coach and general manager Harvey Smyl,

who is excited about the prospect of seeing the fans’ reaction, when they win the jerseys right off the Chiefs’ backs Saturday night. ••• Even though the Chiefs have scored a league-high 76 goals and lead all BCHL teams with an average of 5.10 goals-for per game, Smyl thinks his team has some room for improvement. “We still have some areas where we can upgrade, but we feel that we have most of the parts in place and that we should keep putting up positive results,” Smyl noted. Areas of improvement would be on defence
where the team would like to gain more size and experience. One player who might help in that area is defenceman Brad Haber. An Aldergrove product, Haber was recently released by the Red Deer Rebels and was on the Chiefs protected list. Haber made his Chiefs debut Friday in Powell River.
Plevy commits
Just 16 years old, Chiefs rookie forward Austin Plevy didn’t have to wait long for his hockey future to be mapped out for him. The Chiefs announced last week that Plevy has committed to Merrimack College in North Andover, Massachusetts.
Plevy, in his first season with the Chiefs, has played well, while getting acclimated to the BCHL game. “Plevy has been solid for us so far. He got in a few games last year and that probably helped prepare for what was ahead this year,” said Smyl, who noted that the Langley Minor Hockey product was on the Chiefs’ radar at a young age. “He has adapted well and we expect him to continue to grow into a big contributor for our hockey [team] down the road.” Plevy will not join the Merrimack Warriors until the fall of 2013, which means two more seasons of playing for his hometown fans in Langley. Plevy who has three assists in nine games with the Chiefs thus far, is happy to have a scholarship already secured, and said he now has to get a feel for the BCHL pace. “I’m finding my way, still,” he said. Plevy said the school’s academic opportunities and its hockey team’s coaches are two reasons why he chose Merrimack. “I chose the college route because, even though the ultimate goal is to play in the NHL, I want to get a degree and a good job.”
