NWSS plans unveiled

BY ALFIE LAU REPORTER alau@royalcityrecord.com

For an event called the New Westminster police 30th annual soccer camp, it’s surprising to hear Const. Bruce Ballingall describe what the week-long activities at Queen’s Park are all about.

“It’s not about soccer if you think about it,” he said. “It’s about fun, it’s about making connections with the community and seeing these kids have fun. … If they learn a little about playing soccer, that’s almost like a bonus.”

To illustrate his point, Ballingall tells the story of skiing at Big White in the Interior when a young man approached him.

“It was a kid who had attended soccer camp, and he just wanted to thank me for treating him so great and making the week so fun,” said Ballingall.

That young man had gone through Visit www.royalcityrecord.com for a photo gallery and video a tough childhood, and the soccer camp showed him that there was good in the world, said Ballingall.

“He became a ski patroller at Big White, and I think he’s married with kids now,” said the officer known to kids as Chicken Legs and to colleagues as the Legend.

“When you hear stories about how this camp has really affected kids, you realize that soccer is only a very small part of what this camp is all about.”

Ballingall has participated in every camp since 1986 – he joined the New Westminster force after a stint in Winnipeg – and the only person who has more camps to his credit is deputy police chief Dave Jones.

“I’ve been to 24 of these, and I don’t see the day when I won’t be here,” said Jones. “It’s weird looking around and seeing that everybody is relatively new compared to Bruce and myself.”

Jones has seen a lot in 30 years, and he loves the look on the faces of the

A long-awaited plan to build three new schools in New Westminster would see Massey Theatre demolished and a new 1,000-seat performing arts centre built in a new secondary school.

The proposal would see retention of Mercer Stadium and sports fields, relocation of the skate park to another location in the city and construction of a new Massey performing arts centre.

The school district would own the theatre but would lease it to the city.

The city’s preference is that the Massey Theatre Society run the facility.

Soccer camp: Coaches and players celebrate 30 years ◗ continued from page 1

As the camps changed with the times, the focus changed from turning out better soccer players to turning out better citizens.

While the camp was never in jeopardy of closing, the police force did have difficulty having enough officers to run a three-week-long camp.

“You have to remember that a lot of guys use their time off to volunteer at the camp, and to volunteer three weeks of time is very hard,” said Jones.

And that’s why the camp became a week-long camp, with the soccer being surrounded by an endless supply of fun activities that have little to do with the beautiful game.

Det. Rob Boyd has participated in the last eight camps, and he can’t believe the camps were once three times longer.

“I can’t imagine how much work that would have been,” he said. “I’ve got four kids, and two of them have gone through it, but the other two still have a lot more years to do this.”

Boyd’s four children, Mennlee, 14, Bobby, 12, Jimmy, 4, and McKenna, 1, are a big reason why Boyd participates in the camp, and he couldn’t be prouder of the one who is his assistant coach.

“Bobby came to the camp for four years, and now he’s a second-year coach,” said Boyd.

“On the first day, I do lead, but by the second day, Bobby Visit www.royalcityrecord.com is dong a lot more, for a photo gallery and video and by the end, it’s almost like he’s the head coach of our squad.”

“It’s different being a coach,” said Bobby. “Being a player is a little funner because being a coach, you have a lot more responsibility and it’s a little more tiring.”

That’s a lesson that 10-year-old Lliam Magee may learn next year.

With 10 as the cut-off age, Magee is attending his fifth and final soccer camp, but he expects to be back next year as an assistant coach.

“I’ve had a lot of fun doing this, and I do want to come back,” said Lliam, who couldn’t attend the last activities on Friday morning because he was going with his parents to Hawaii. “I think it will be pretty fun to be a coach, so I hope they accept me as a volunteer next year.”

On Wednesday, while kids leisurely kicked around their balls, the Air 1 helicopter landed on the lower field, with pilot David Brolin eager to show all 320 camp participants the latest and greatest tool in the police’s crime-fighting arsenal.

“All the kids love seeing the helicopter, and we love showing it off,” said Brolin.

Even before Brolin showed up, the big hit was the Tim Hortons coffee and doughnuts that were handed out to all the kids and volunteers – and some parents who needed their java fix.

“We couldn’t do this without our

sponsors,” said Sgt. Chris Mullin, one of the key organizers of the camp. “This is a community event that local businesses support, and that’s why it’s so successful.”

Another key organizer is Const. Shari Gulliver, who’s been at the camp for the past 14 years.

“We start planning for everything in March, and everything starts coming together in April,” she said. “It has gotten easier over the years, but there are always things that come up.”

For example, this year’s complement of 320 kids is much younger than in pre-

vious years, with more of the four-, fiveand six-year-old set than before.

Leading Team 1, Team Canada, is firstyear-volunteer Roselle McQuillan.

“Now I know why I got Team 1,” she said with a hearty laugh. “Working with the little ones is a lot of fun, but I can see that it’s a lot more work with them than the 10-year-olds.”

By the time the camp ended on Friday afternoon, each of the kids, along with a select crew of about 25 volunteers, had received the 30th anniversary commemorative medallion that the police service had specially made.

“Every five years, we give out medallions,” said Jones. “We had 350 made this year. All the kids get one, and we choose some of the unsung volunteers to get the ones that are left. With the volunteers, we mount them and we’ll present them at a ceremony.”

And to think it’s only 51 more weeks until the 31st annual New Westminster police soccer camp.

High school: Most complex school project in province’s history ◗ continued from page 1

said Jim Alkins, project director. “There will be a consultation process.”

City administrator Paul Daminato said it was really important from city council’s point of view that all of the functions were maintained on the site, including a full-sized high school, a theatre and the track and field facilities. The high school would be built to accommodate 1,800 students but would include the ability to expand to a future capacity of 2,600 students.

Alkins said the school district has been struggling to find a way to accommodate a secondary school with a future capacity of 2,600 students on the site.

The proposal would see Massey Theatre being replaced with a performing arts facility that’s integrated into the new secondary school. The city and the school district have agreed on some steps to minimize the impacts of the closure of Massey Theatre while construction takes place at the site.

As part of that process, the city will engage the Massey Theatre Society to operate the performing arts facility that will be included in the multi-use civic facility on Columbia Street until the new Massey Performing Arts Centre is ready for occupancy. The school district will provide

We look forward to sharing this exciting concept with the community and getting feedback in the coming weeks.”

As part of the proposed plan, Mercer Stadium would be maintained at the secondary school site and a new field would be added at the St. Mary’s site. The city would replace the Mercer track with a new eight-lane synthetic track and will fix Mercer Stadium.

After consulting with the community, the board of education and city council will each consider the feedback and determine whether the proposed plan should move forward.

“We’ve been working hard with the community and the city for a long time.

It’s great to see it pay off with this agreement,” said board chair James Janzen.

“We have 3,000 kids waiting for new schools and a community that’s been living with uncertainty.”

‘The best solution for a very bad situation’ Parents excited about plans, but Massey Theatre reps aren’t taking a position yet

BY THERESA MCMANUS REPORTER tmcmanus@royalcityrecord.com

Mary Ann McKenzie’s children won’t get to attend a new secondary school in New Westminster, but she’s excited for students who will attend the future school.

McKenzie, chair of the parent advisory council at New Westminster Secondary School, will be seeking feedback from her executive members about a plan to build a new high school on the New Westminster Secondary School site that will include a new 1,000-seat performing arts centre.

The proposal would require demolition of Massey Theatre.

“I think people would agree this is the best solution for a very bad situation,” she said. “The idea of a brand new 1,000-seat community theatre in the high school is very exciting.”

McKenzie noted that New Westminster Secondary School has excellent band and

Johansen noted that the district parent advisory council has pushed hard for a definitive, workable solution to the complicated high school replacement process.

He applauded the city and school district for developing a promising solution that may prove to be acceptable to all.

“It is win-win,” said Mayor Wayne Wright.

Although there will be people who are concerned about changes to Massey Theatre, Wright believes the city will end up with a state-of-the-art performance facility.

“It will be safe, it will be large, it will be regional, it will be useful for the high school,” he said. “We still have to go to the public.”

Coun. Bill Harper said there will be detractors who think Massey Theatre should be retained.

“There’s a great nostalgia attached to the theatre,” he said. “There are a lot of people emotionally attached to the theatre.”

Power dilemma is no surprise Dear Editor:

Surprise, surprise! I’m talking about news that the combination of drier weather in B.C. due to climate change and B.C.’s growing population means B.C. Hydro can’t produce enough power anymore from its hydroelectric dams and now has to import it. Who saw that one coming?

The fact that B.C. Hydro isn’t going to be passing the quarter-billion-dollar cost of these power imports onto their ratepayers isn’t much comfort either.

B.C. Hydro says they intend to make up the cost in a future year when they produce more electricity than their ratepayers can use. But when will that be? B.C. Hydro hasn’t been able to do that with any regularity for years now, and for the past decade they’ve had to import electricity in every year except one.

The lesson learned? You can’t stop building power generating infrastructure for two-and-a-half decades like we’ve done in B.C. and not expect to run out of electricity. The people responsible for these things need to get on the ball and make sure B.C. gets ahead of the curve again.

We’ve got the resources, and more than anyplace else we should be able to produce the power we need and be more than self-sufficient.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Census is too intrusive ◗ continued from page 6

such as date of birth, gender, marital status or mother tongue.

But should the government be asking us what time we leave for work in the morning, whether our house needs renovations or how many bedrooms we have? Apparently the 160,000 Canadians who refused to fill out the long form during the last census, a five-fold increase over 1981, thought some of the questions were over the top.

The Conservative government recently

announced that the long-form version of the 2011 census will be voluntary, believing the majority of Canadians want the freedom to choose how much of their private lives they want to share with the government.

Some of us have been around long enough to remember the famous quip of then-prime minister Pierre Trudeau when he told reporters the state has no place in the bedrooms of the nation. So why does Michael Ignatieff believe Canadians should be forced to divulge intimate, private details about their personal lives?

Gerald Hall, Parksville

THE BEST FROM OUR BLOGS The following is an excerpt from a post this week in Theresa McManus’ blog, Only in New West, available on our website.

It may be a tough sell to some constituents, but Mayor Wayne Wright is supportive of plans to build an incinerator in the region to deal with Metro Vancouver’s garbage.

On July 21, Metro Vancouver’s waste committee voted in favour of building an “additional publicly owned wasteto-energy capacity” in Metro Vancouver. Metro Vancouver’s board will consider the plan on

July 30, before it goes to Environment Minister Barry Penner for final approval.

Wright, the city’s representative to the committee, supported the recommendation to refer it to the Metro Vancouver board.

He supports waste-toenergy technology based on information from Metro Vancouver and city investigations.

Communities in the Fraser Valley, fearing increased air pollution, have voted unanimously against the incinerator proposal.

“We are very sympathet-

ic to what they are talking about,” Wright said about air quality concerns. “If you look at New Westminster, last year we closed three old mills. A state-of-theart waste-to-energy plant (emissions) wouldn’t even come close to one of those mills.”

Wright said a decision about where an incinerator would be built is a long ways off, but he’d be willing to consider having one in New Westminster.

Voice: It’s not about being ‘negative’ ◗ continued from page 6

the concerns and issues we exposed, but in our opinion much work remains. The city’s financial position and much of our public infrastructure have deteriorated over the last seven years.

Our amenities have not kept up with the needs of our residents as we moved towards major densification of the city.

Many of the issues that we have brought forward have proven to be exactly as we initially suggested.

We brought up the issue of dysfunction in the development services department specifically and in the city generally. As we exposed, this was leading to the waste of hundreds of thousands of dollars. As events unfolded, our observations were proven to be very accurate. Were we negative as our detractors have claimed? We maintain that

the negatives were already there and that we were just exposing them and bringing them to your attention.

We strongly believe in the public’s right to know about the conduct of public individuals involved in the lawsuit currently being brought against the city regarding the 12th Street liquor store. We think it is important to put the facts before you. That is why we are attempting to secure transcripts of the court proceedings. Of course those who were involved claim that we are being negative.

They would love dearly to have the facts remain hidden.

The same can be said for the debacle at the pier park. We stated at the time that the city should take out an option on the waterfront property and exercise it only when due diligence was completed.

Our opponents were upset with this position, and they claimed that we were opposed to the park and that we were being negative. Once again, though, our concerns have been borne out. The cost of the park has tripled, and only one-third of the anticipated scope of the work will be done in the initial stage. Were we negative on that issue as some have claimed? We think not. We believe that for items as large as the $60- to $100million pier park project, there should have been a comprehensive and transparent process.

On the school board side of things, we believe that our Voice trustees have brought forward many positive initiatives, and we look forward to that continuing.

Neil Powell is the president of Voice New Westminster.

City planning 2011 budget

Local taxpayers just finished paying their 2010 property taxes, and city staff is already laying out plans for the 2011 budget process.

A city report notes that departments must submit their budgets by the end of September, and council and staff must complete budget deliberations in November.

As part of the 2011 budget process, staff will do an analysis of demographic, social and economic factors in the city.

The report notes that the city is currently facing a “backlog” of buildings, parks and public works infrastructure that needs to be replaced.

“The current capital funding envelopes are not sufficient to address this backlog,”

said a report to council. “Consequently the backlog in these areas continues to grow, as does the risk of infrastructure/systems failure.”

As part of the budget process, city staff will complete an overview of the city’s capital assets and an “order-of-magnitude estimate” of the capital backlog and any funding gaps. Staff will do longrange financial modelling that will look at the budget impacts of bringing on new city initiatives and different strategies for addressing the capital backlog.

The report notes that addressing the issue will require decades and a commitment to providing annual funding.

Q

My husband and I have separated. We have two children aged 12 and 9. My husband agrees to pay child support but believes that after the government mandated amount, that is all he has to pay me regarding the children. I understood he has to pay above and beyond the mandated amount including, in particular, a share of daycare costs. Is he correct?

The short answer is no, he is not correct. Under the Federal Child Support Guidelines, parents are required to pay basic table child support and a proportionate share of extraordinary expenses. In most cases, the largest extraordinary expense is daycare. Other such expenses include the portion of medical and dental premiums attributable the children, health related expenses over $100 per year above and beyond insurance reimbursements, primary, secondary and post-secondary costs and extracurricular activities. Whether or not the parents will be ordered to pay a proportionate share of extraordinary costs above and beyond basic table child support depends on a number of factors and you should seek legal advice to determine whether or not you are entitled to payment for them.

Totem pole gets a facelift Pole set for its return to Moody Park in the fall

BY THERESA MCMANUS REPORTER tmcmanus@royalcityrecord.com

A totem pole that’s called Moody Park home for many years is undergoing repairs that will extend its life for many years to come.

The totem pole had been located at the park’s playground but was removed while new washrooms were constructed. It’s now being restored by Burnaby resident Manny Fernandes, who has also restored a handful of other totem poles that stand in New Westminster parks.

“It’s been here a couple of months,” Fernandes said.

“I am expecting to have it done by mid-August.”

Fernandes is getting set to start repainting the totem pole, having finished repairing damage to the wood.

“It was in bad shape. The woodpeckers were making holes in it,” he said. “It is going to outlast me. There are wood preservatives in there now.”

When he received the

It’s been filled with insulating foam, cracks have been patched with wood, and the entire piece has been sprayed with a wood preserver.

Ervio Sian, the city’s for-

mer head gardener, carved totem poles, benches and wood climbing devices as part of his efforts to rebuild playgrounds in the city in the 1970s and 1980s. Sian, who passed away earlier this year, carved the totem pole that will be placed back in Moody Park.

Claude LeDoux, the

city’s manager of horticulture, said the totem pole was removed as part of the youth centre/washroom construction project in Moody Park.

“We will probably look at replacing it in the fall,” he said. “We want to put it in a location where it can’t be disturbed.”

Smoking ban in city parks Smokers who like to light up while at the park will have to quit the habit for a while. The B.C. Wildfire Management Branch has declared a temporary provincewide ban on open burning, which includes cigarettes as well as campfires and fireworks.

Although the ban only officially applies to provincial parks, Crown and private lands, city staff decided to extend it to all city parks and natural lands.

“Combustible material ignites easily if unnoticed, especially with something like a discarded cigarette,” said John Hatch of the New Westminster Fire and Rescue Services. “A wind can come up, and all of a sudden it ignites the ground fuels under the trees.

Then we have a tree fire, which can leap to other trees, and then all of a sudden we’ve lost a 150-year-old cedar we can’t replace.”

The ban does not apply to cooking stoves that use gas, propane or briquettes, or to portable campfire apparatus with a CSA or ULC rating using briquettes, liquid or gaseous fuel, that aren’t capable of producing a flame longer than 15 centimetres.

Hatch said he wouldn’t be able guess how long the ban will be in place, saying that it depends on the weather and decisions made by the Coastal Fire Centre. Hatch said he hopes people will exercise common sense during the current dry spell.

“We just want people to be aware of the situation and be careful out there.”

“All of the goals make a lot of sense,” said Coun. Betty McIntosh. “The goals are progressive.”

“We agree with the plan they have,” Wright said. “They have to do the zero waste challenge.

We are reducing as much as we can, recycling as much as we can.”

While people can be “quite passionate” about the issue of incinerators in New Westminster, McIntosh said they may be surprised to know that all of the city’s waste goes to an incinerator in Burnaby.

“A new one would have new technology,” she said.

New Westminster city council recently endorsed recommendations from its environmental advisory committee and forwarded them to the Metro Vancouver.

Those recommendations included asking Metro Vancouver to increase the resources needed to meet a 70 per cent target of diverting garbage from landfills.

Parks host summer fun New Westminster Family Place holds Sun Fun events for families

BY THERESA MCMANUS REPORTER tmcmanus@royalcityrecord.com

New Westminster Family Place is inviting parents and young kids to join them for some fun in the sun.

Each year, Family Place hosts Sun Fun, which is designed to help local families get acquainted with local parks.

“We put together this program, it must be 15 years ago, to help families familiarize themselves with the different parks in New Westminster. We go around to each park at least once,” said Marjorie Staal, executive director. “We bring our craft supplies and art equipment, toys and games for the children. We have a huge bubble thing that is so popular.”

Staal thinks the event is a great opportunity for parents and children, particularly those who may be living in apartments, to get outside and play with other kids.

Local beauty a beast inside the cage

Party girl traded bar scene for the gym and is now a swimsuit model and fighter

BY ANDREW FLEMING REPORTER afleming@royalcityrecord.com

It is probably a safe bet that Sarah “TNT” McLeod, who is competing in a provincial bikini contest at the Massey Theatre on Saturday, could easily beat up every other swimsuit model in the dressing room.

The 22-year-old Burnaby woman is quickly making a name for herself as the next big thing on the women’s mixed martial arts (MMA) circuit.

Despite only having been a competitive fighter for a less than a year, McLeod is attracting a rapidly growing fan base and already has a Facebook fan page with nearly 300 members.

It likely doesn’t hurt that she looks pretty good in a bikini.

“As far as I know, there aren’t any other bikini models who are into fighting,” said McLeod with a laugh. “The two are kind of both ends of the extreme.”

She says the two interests aren’t necessarily mutually exclusive though, as both require a great deal of time spent in the gym.

Even still, there is always a risk of a disfiguring injury that isn’t an occupational hazard most models have to deal with.

“I actually have a broken nose and some bruising right now,” she admitted, “but you load up with so much makeup and tanning cream that everything can mostly be covered up, and the judges are really looking more at muscle definition and body proportions anyway.”

If she makes the top three finalists, McLeod will be invited to attend the national competition next month in Ontario and possibly earn a ticket to be a professional bikini model, a gig that comes with sponsorship and travel opportunities.

“My main goal is to qualify for the Mr. Olympia. The bikini category is a new category that just opened this year, and it’s a pretty big deal.”

Her trainer and manager, Marcus Hicks of Team Denarius, admits that much of the hype surrounding his young protegé tends to focus on her looks.

“Because she is beautiful, people don’t expect her to be a hard puncher,” he said.

“She is basically a knockout artist. She has so much power, I find that most guys

McLeod convinced Hicks to take her on after meeting him in the gym last December.

Twelve short days later, she made her debut inside the cage at the River Rock Casino in Richmond, battling Wendy Roy to a hard-fought draw that was voted Fight of the Night. McLeod, a reformed party girl who traded the bar scene for the addiction of working out, hasn’t looked back since.

Her bantamweight showdown against Cheryl Chan of Surrey’s Mendoza Martial Arts was one of the main draws at a contest held earlier this month at the River Rock.

But despite dominating the first two rounds, Chan was declared the winner after the referee ended it at 1:13 into the third.

Chan, 31, won by a technical submission after trapping McLeod in an arm lock, and the ref controversially opted to stop the fight rather than allow her to tap out (surrender) or attempt to break free.

“It was ridiculous that they stopped it,” said Hicks, who doubts the ref would’ve done the same if it had been a men’s fight.

“I really think it was because it was two females. I saw her get out of the exact same lock at a jiu-jitsu tournament a few weeks before.”

Although she lost the fight, you wouldn’t have known it by looking at the winner, whose face was looking painfully swollen and bruised afterwards.

“I definitely couldn’t be looking like that at any modelling competition,” said McLeod.

With a little luck and plenty more training, maybe she never will.

A poetic event to celebrate World Poetry Night AROUND TOWN

THERESA MCMANUS

A

number of local residents will be doing readings at the upcoming World Poetry Night Out.

The event takes place on Wednesday, July 28 at 6:30 p.m. in the auditorium room at the New Westminster Public Library. Ariadne Sawyer and Anita Aguirre Nieveras will co-host the event.

Featured poets at the July 28 event include: Candice James, New Westminster’s poet laureate; Masume Dihkani, Jaimie McEvoy, Diane

Laloge, Tony Antonias, Ibrahim Honjo and Franci Louann. The free event includes an open mike, multicultural readings and refreshments. For more information, call Sawyer at 604-526-4729.

A magic number

The New Westminster Downtown Residents’ Association is inviting one and all to attend its

10th annual downtown community barbecue and street festival.

The event takes place on Thursday, July 29 from 4 to 8 p.m. at Genesis House, which is at the corner of Carnarvon and Merrivale streets.

“It’s our 10th anniversary,” said Miriam Smith, a director with the association. “It’s a bit of a magic number.”

For $5, guests will get

a barbecued burger, salad, beverage and dessert. The event also includes visits from Whistles the clown and Allison the face painter, live music and popcorn.

People are invited to take tours of the West Coast Genesis Society’s Genesis House and Maria Keary cottages.

“It has a neat community feel,” Smith said about the event. “We set up around 40 tables for

eating. We are anticipating 300 to 400 people.”

The community barbecue is a great way to get some of the Genesis House neighbours out of their apartments, but it’s open to all residents.

“We encourage everyone to come,” Smith said. “It is open. We have people coming from other areas. It is a good bargain and a nice meeting place.” ◗Town Page 14

Town: Local musician gets a top-10 nod in The Province ◗ continued from page 13

Good company

Joel Battle’s new CD Slow Learner has made it to the top-10 of Province music critic Tom Harrison’s list.

Proud mom Lorraine Brett dropped The Record an e-mail to let us know that Harrison named Slow Learner as a top-10 Best West Coast Recorded CD. He has complimented Battle’s songwriting skills and compared his folk/ country sound to Tom Petty and Crosby, Stills and Nash.

Battle is in Toronto, where he’s intent on “making noise” in that much larger music scene. Slow Learner can be purchased on ITunes or heard online at www.myspace.com/ joel_battle.

A visit to the Pen

A Sense of History Research Service’s next tour will focus on an escape from the B.C. Pen by renowned train robber Bill Miner.

In August of 1907, “the Grey Fox” led three others in an escape from the British Columbia Penitentiary in New Westminster. For the first time, A Sense of History Research Services is offering a Bill Miner escapes tour that will combine a walk near the actual site of the escape (to discuss the event and the main players) with a cemetery tour (to meet a few of the principals linked to this dramatic event).

The B.C. Day weekend tour will take place on Sunday, Aug. 1, starting at 3 p.m. in Glenbrook Ravine Park, off Jamieson Court.

The tour will end at the Fraser and St Peter’s cemeteries near 100 Richmond St. This particular tour will start in the Glenbrook Ravine and include some stairs and slight hills. The tour is free, takes about one-and-a-half to two hours, and goes rain or shine. There’s no need to pre-register. People can just

show up and join the walk.

Music fest on 12th Street

The 12th Street Music Festival features events for the whole family.

The festival is taking place on 12th Street on Sunday, Aug. 1 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. The street will be closed to traffic between Sixth and Eighth avenues.

The event includes a kids’ zone, pancake breakfast, Kiwanis salmon barbecue, martial arts demonstrations, scavenger hunt, wine tasting, prize raffles, dog wash, car show, dunk tank and lots of live music.

People will also have a chance to meet some allstar wrestlers.

Cultural crawl in New Westminster

The B.C. Cultural Crawl’s website is the “goto” resource for the ninth annual event that gets underway on the B.C. Day

long weekend.

More than 80 communities are participating, and hundreds of events are being held during the 2010 B.C. Cultural Crawl, a free celebration of B.C.’s vibrant arts, culture and heritage.

New Westminster will be hosting its seventh annual New Westminster Cultural Crawl.

The website allows people to check out August events, local cultural crawls and community art walks.

They can also download itineraries, maps and find the resources they need to plan a cultural journey.

New Westminster resident Trudy Van Dop is the founder of the B.C. Cultural Crawl. The 2010 event is once again being co-presented in partnership with the Assembly of B.C. Arts Councils.

“We are delighted with this ongoing partnership,” says Van Dop. “We have identified synergies between both parties to achieve a sustainable, longterm relationship benefiting

communities throughout British Columbia.”

For an up-to-date listing of participating communities, visit www.bccultural crawl.com.

Class reunion

A group of former Burnaby South students enjoys celebrating together in New Westminster.

Royal City resident Barbara Kromm organizes the annual reunion of people she attended school with in Burnaby in the 1950s. The get-togethers started in 2002 with 11 people in Kromm’s living room,.

“It’s a conglomeration of people I knew when I was going to school,” she explained. “They are from all different grades.”

In addition to Kromm, the group includes several New Westminster residents including Don Beadle, Jake and Doris Frizzell, Bill Hunt, Nita Glen and Jack and Karrol Sims.

The idea was to hold the get-togethers every two

years, but people liked connecting with old friends so much that they now meet annually.

“The group keeps growing,” Kromm said. “There were over 60 that were there.”

Kromm said some schools have class reunions, but this gathering captures some who may not have graduated from school and may be missed. She notes that in the 1950s there were a lot of people who didn’t graduate for various reasons, such as going to work to help their families.

Folks came from Atlanta, Palm Springs, Winnipeg and throughout B.C. to reconnect with old friends.

While the group consists of people who attended schools in Burnaby, Kromm said many have a connection to New Westminster.

“There was no boundary,” she said of the two cities. “The land my parents owned was St. Thomas More Collegiate. My father had a golf driving range there.”

Sacrifice is never fun. You want your business to prosper, but not at your family’s expense.

Then again, one can’t happen without the other. That’s where we can help. Together, we’ll find a balance between working on your business and working on your kids’ tree house.

◗ HISTORY

Pen less mighty than famous ward OUR PAST

ARCHIE & DALE MILLER

I

n 1907, New Westminster had moved almost a decade past a great fire that had wiped out its downtown core, the double-decked rail bridge was only a few years old but still a marvel of engineering, and

the memories of the 1905 Dominion Exhibition held in Queen’s Park were still fresh.

The B.C. Penitentiary was on the hillside above the Fraser River as one followed Columbia Street out to Sapperton.

Though the Pen had not yet received its dominating front entrance and massive concrete walls, it was still a commanding landmark.

Situated on a site well known to First Nations and the former location of the camp of the Columbia detachment of Royal Engineers, this facility

housed many prisoners, but in the summer of 1907 it held a special “resident.”

Bill Miner, perpetrator of stagecoach and train robberies and a string of other nefarious deeds, was incarcerated in the Pen, serving a lengthy sentence for a train holdup near Kamloops the previous year. Miner, a wily old character and con man extraordinaire who became known as “the Grey Fox,” always vowed to escape from custody, but some didn’t view that as much of a threat as he was getting to be an old man.

On Aug. 8, 1907, Miner and a few other convicts escaped from the Pen and headed north. A few witnesses saw the escapees as they disappeared into the bush, and a massive search ensued. Any place that the fugitives could go was checked and staked out, but Miner was long gone.

Stories of Miner are fascinating as he moved about easily, convinced many people that he was someone he wasn’t, and made fast friends who would swear that he was not the armed robber. His story is complicated by

the fact that Miner was forever making up stories to fit a particular situation.

The challenge has always been to separate fact from fiction. Unverified stories abound about Miner being here or there, but most are simply not possible.

Using information from a couple of excellent publications, as well as many other sources of interest, we have pieced together information to create a tour – part walking tour and part cemetery tour.

The tour, called Bill Miner Train Robber Has Escaped, will be held on Sunday,

Aug. 1, starting at 3 p.m. from the Glenbrook Ravine Park (off Jamieson Court) and ending in the Fraser and St Peter’s Cemetery.

The tour will include a few hills and some stairs.

On the tour, you will hear of the escape in the area where it actually happened in August of 1907, and in the cemetery, you will “meet” a witness to the escape, the Pen warden at the time, the deputy warden under whose watch it happened, and others connected to Bill Miner and his time at the B.C. Penitentiary.

Chilly reads for hot days

BY JOANNE ROBERTSON CONTRIBUTOR editorial@royalcityrecord.com

Looking for something cool to read during these long hot summer days? These short stories will send shivers down your spine.

Classics like The Monkey’s Paw by J.J. Jacobs, The Great God Pan by Arthur Machen, The Call of Cthulhu

by H.P. Lovecraft, The Dead Man by Fritz Leiber, A Diagnosis of Death by Ambrose Bierce and The Lottery

by Shirley Jackson will have you breaking out in a cold sweat. You’ll find these and more in short story collections like Masterpieces of Terror and the Unknown and The 13 Best Horror Stories of All Time.

Edgar Allan Poe’s tales can freeze your blood.

Sixteen of Poe’s best stories, including The Tell-Tale Heart, The Murders in the Rue Morgue and The Raven are all in the library.

In 20th Century Ghosts, Joe Hill, like his father Stephen King, tells stories that are mind-numbing. Your fingers will burn from turning the pages so quickly.

And, how cool is this? Stephen King, who announced in 2002 that he would stop writing, is still publishing.

His latest, Blockade Billy, is the story of a baseball player who stops players cold at the plate. And look for Full Dark, No Stars, four shivery stories to be published in November.

Neil Gaiman’s anthology Stories includes his chilling The Truth is a Cave in the Black Mountains.

You’ll be burning the midnight oil when you pick up Darkness: Two Decades of Modern Horror edited by Ellen Datlow. Like Gaiman, she gathered spine-tingling stories from some of the best writers in the business. These stories will give cold comfort.

If you want more suggestions, check out Horror: 100 Best Books and Horror: Another 100 Best Books, edited by Stephen Jones, or take a look at www.goodreads.com for their list of Most Terrifying Short Stories.

Don’t get cold feet. They’re perfect summer reading.

Swing the ball: Burnaby Lake’s Julia Sugawara, seen with ball in an earlier club match, was one of six local club members to be named to Canada’s national rugby team for the upcoming Women’s World Cup in England next month.

Zone athletes go to Games Seven box lacrosse players lead a 22-athlete contingent from New Westminster to the B.C. Summer Games in Langley this weekend.

Joshua Byrne, Jason Delgrosso, Kyle Madden, Cain Mydske, Chris Nasato, Hunter Onstine and Nathan Stewart will look to temper their club team’s loss at the recent midget A1 provincial championships with a gold medal at the Langley Games. Ryan Donahoe and Javier Tudela will represent

the Royal City on the zone 4 field lacrosse team.

Five local athletes, Colin Donahoe, Natasha Lazecki, Bogdan Pavel, Mihailo Stefanovic and Ethan Strome will compete in track and field for Fraser River Delta.

Also competing at the Games are Trent Fletcher in baseball, Jaycee Pineda and Amanda Zacharuk in basketball, Trevor Donald in canoe/kayaking, Natasha Kukorokoff in equestrian,

Ryan Spencer and Meghan Malkowich in softball and Dilip Rathinakumar in swimming.

Named to team

Javelin thrower Krista Woodward of New Westminster was named to the B.C. senior track and field team.

Woodward won the 20to-34 women’s javelin at the B.C. championships with a throw of 56.01 metres.

Peewee Oakeys win B banner The Burnaby Oakeys won the peewee B girls’ provincial championships at Squint Lake Park last weekend.

Katie Reyes crushed her second grand slam home run of the tournament, while catcher Madison Newman also clubbed a dinger to help the Oakeys defeat Cordova Bay 7-6 before the home crowd in the championship final July 16.

Meghan Malkowich played the hero in the outfield, stopping two of Cordova Bay’s heavy hitters with a pair of surehanded catches to deny the visitors overthe-fence runs.

The game ended with a dramatic finish in the seventh inning.

With the bases loaded and the tying run for Cordova Bay on third base, infielder Kaela Ponte recorded a double play, getting the initial out at first base and then firing the ball home to Newman, who tagged

the runner attempting to score.

In the semifinal game, Reyes tagged her first four-run homer to lead Burnaby past the eventual third-place Abbotsford Outlaws.

The Oakeys went a perfect 4-0 in the preliminary round, beating opponents South Delta Invaders, Poco Ravens, Langley Rebels and SSWR Thunder by an accumulated margin of 34-4 Burnaby then defeated the Ravens and Fleetwood Force in the medal rounds to keep its perfect record intact.

Lead-off batter Courtney Carlson was a big reason for Burnaby’s dominance at the plate, batting a whopping .818 in the competition. Arielle Charuk also lit a spark, tagging the team’s first home run out of the park during the round-robin.

Burnaby also got outstanding pitching from Kat Hatch, Malkowich and Charuk.

Great ideas and tips to help you plan your long weekend.

Aries March 21 - April 19: Major shifts are occurring in your life, in career, status, relationships and in yourself. You’re ready to make a big leap for freedom, yet there’s nowhere to land except in the area of duty, restriction and slow effort. Muffled anger might exist in a relationship. Best approach: use that urge toward freedom to seek philosophical learning or more education, or to expand socially and/or internationally. View all relationships and prospects not as escape, but as ambition’s ground. E.g., form a career partnership. Be prepared to change, go slow and exercise diplomacy. August accents negotiations.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★

Cancer June 21-July 22: A gigantic shift peaks this summer (it began in 2008, lasts ultimately to 2024) in your relationships, career and home. You should see plenty of evidence of these forces of change this week and next. My advice is simple: be flexible, willing, eager to join forces, diplomatic, honest and loving. Then what can go permanently wrong?

Nothing. You might have to deal with: A stubborn yet persuasive partner (or an almost too-alluring person!).

Muffled anger in the home. A possible break-up.

Unpredictable, yet unexpectedly lucky situations in your career, prestige realms or business.

Libra Sept. 23-Oct. 22: Major changes began about two years ago, intensified the last few months, and peak this week and next. (With variations through the years ahead.) The present peak brings in new elements, people and situations. Expect stresses/ changes in home, security, property, all relationships, contracts, litigation, partnerships, relocation prospects and in yourself. You are now determined to enter a relationship only if it grants you security.

This can cause a “muddying” effect. Amazing, bright, friendly, lucky, unexpected (and perhaps short-lived) relationships will arise – for seven years!

Taurus April 20-May 20: A major change is already underway. (It started last spring, but peaks now and lasts into 2011.) It affects your work, duty and intellectual spheres. These include such things as cultural events, love, international travel, publishing, higher learning, health, machinery/tools, employment/ employees, government, institutional, administrative, spiritual and charity areas. Your life will never be the same! But these are not painful nor “crisis” changes – you’ll do fine! My best advice: turn a challenge into success, but don’t get caught in an unfixable situation/project. August holds a major task.

Leo July 23-Aug. 22: This summer’s massive changes and stresses don’t hit you as directly as some, Leo. But the slow changes that has been building for two years peak this week and next in your work, health, machinery-related, communications, legal, educational, travelling, cultural, love, philosophical and intellectual spheres. (DON’T drive recklessly!)

A letter could reveal a lawsuit, or an email could light your heart with love. Job changes might occur – but the more obvious changes are in intellectual, friendship and travel zones. Old methods will be abandoned; new ones will form (slowly, in some cases).

Scorpio Oct. 23-Nov. 21: Be ambitious. Many stresses and changes exist around you, but they affect others more directly; they could even create openings and opportunities for you to move forward.

(Money-wise Sunday/Monday, socially Thursday.)

These undergo flux: work, employment, machinery, duties toward children, management, corporate and government“organizationcharts,”institutions,spiritual and charitable interests. All these changes turn on the fulcrum of (or affect) your ability to communicate or travel. (E.g., changes “on high” might change who you communicate with, the style of report.)

Gemini May 21-June 20: It started in late 2008, intensified this spring, and peaks all summer: a series of major shifts in your sexual, financial, investment, health, romantic, creative, sports, speculation, childoriented and social spheres. Never again will these be the same – improvement’s slated! You might begin a deeply intimate relationship with someone quite conservative or of a different generation. You might completely switch your financial structure. A new creativity can be sparked, but it is a slow, deep one, no overnight successes here. Be close to Aries and Libra friends; they might need you.

Virgo Aug. 23-Sept. 22: Big financial, lifestyle and/ or sexual changes are imminent. They won’t surprise, as life has “telegraphed” them to you for almost two years (and some have already occurred). View these changes as a varying landscape on a road that is primarily successful, creative, loving and fruitful.

Still, challenges exist. A new, restrictive note quietly creeps into your earnings outlook for two years, so be conservative in spending. You might invest in your earnings sphere – e.g., buy equipment. Go slow.

Investments are both unpredictable and lucky – sex, too! Surprising revelations come here and there!

Sagittarius Nov. 22-Dec. 21: Big changes occur this summer in three areas of your life: the romantic, creative, pleasure and child-oriented sphere, the social, entertainment and “future dreams” area, and in your earnings/possessions zone. Generally, your social drives, optimism and love of fun will “rule,” whereas money necessities “out-power” your romantic and creative drives. You’re lucky predawn Monday, and you clearly see money/domestic matters late Thursday. You might need to figure out some ethical, friendship or love matter Sunday/ Monday. A month of travel, culture, love and learning lies ahead!

Pets

Continues on next page

July 25 - 31 Capricorn Dec. 22-Jan. 19: You’re in the power seat, but that doesn’t mean things will be easy. This week and next are the peak of a long change. This change has different levels – some are deep, inner, sexual, psychological, investment-oriented, and can change your whole lifestyle. Other changes occur in career, ambition and prestige dealings. You might break from a former career, association, or direction, and assume a new one. Realize a higher-up might be repressing anger. A potentially very lucky change arrives in your domestic sphere: now, soon, or February to June 2011. Treat aches, pains seriously.

Aquarius Jan. 20-Feb. 18: Relationships come front and centre through the weeks ahead.Your sensual side has been very “awake” recently, but now the accent shifts to meaning, love, morals, communication, travel and mental links. You love these things, breezy mental interplay, ideals, meanings. This summer forces you, probably through a relationship, to rediscover and rebuild your morals and ideals, perhaps against a background of secret desires or fears. E.g., an attraction could make you question your loyalty. Or old “fibs” return to play the music you have to face. But this week proves you’re lucky, too!

Pisces Feb. 19-March 20: Lie low, rest Sunday to Tuesday. Your energy surges Wednesday/Thursday.

Focus on money, earnings and spending Friday/ Saturday. The weeks ahead emphasize work, health, dependents and machinery. A “prime” change brews in your health, sexual and financial spheres.

(Financial: the price of groceries to your paycheque to investments/debt.) The change is deep and seminal – it starts a new future. These areas will definitely impact your plans for your future – and your plans will affect them. Expect luck, struggle, obstacles and opportunity. A relationship grows “talkative.” timstephens@shaw.ca • Reading: 416-686-5014
