Publisher’s Note Hello, spring! It is such a pleasure to see cherry trees blooming, to hear birds chirping and to feel the warmth of the sun again.

Congratulations to the Kerrisdale Business Association which is celebrating 30 years of Business Improvement Areas (BIAs) in Vancouver! Visit the village and check out KBA’s beautifully designed spring/summer street banners.

Kerrisdale Arena’s Play Palace is now open for indoor playground fun. Easter is just a hop and skip away. Meanwhile, baseball players are eagerly awaiting Little League season which commences with the opening day parade on April 27. The Kerrisdale Business Association is busy planning Kerrisdale Carnival Days with fun for all including horse and carriage rides, entertainers, face painting and music. Merchants will showcase their businesses with special incentives and super sidewalk sales on April 26 and 27.

Kerrisdale has always been a great place to buy shoes, and that is why it is so exciting to welcome Ronsons back to where the business began 32 years ago. Read how father and son team Mayer and Tony Aronson created this successful shoe empire that now has 20 locations.

In this issue we feature Ridgepoint Wellness.

Owner Garrick Cheung and his team offer registered massage therapy, craniosacral therapy, traditional Chinese medicine, acupuncture and Chinese acupressure.

Read about Vancouver Debate Academy (VDA), an award-winning local after-school academy specializing in the sport of debate.

Sadly, the iconic Sequoia tree in the 2300 Block of West 41st Avenue succumbed to whatever ailed it and was taken down by the property owner on March 2, 2019. Thanks to the Kerrisdale Business Association its memory will live on; an 18 foot piece will be milled and transformed into beautiful benches for the Arbutus Greenway.

Spring in Kerrisdale is a time for gardening, spring cleaning, garage sales, outdoor dining and barbecues. It’s also a wonderful time to stroll the village streets and explore the local shops, restaurants and services that make up this charming neighbourhood. Enjoy taking in all of the sights, smells and sounds of beautiful spring!

Ronsons:

For All Walks of Life Story by Sarah Gordon

Photos by Sandra Steier & submitted

Ronsons is back in Kerrisdale where the company first planted its roots 32 years ago. A fire destroyed the shop in 2017, and it took time to find a new location to reopen the business father and son team Mayer and Tony Aronson created in 1987.

Sadly, Mayer passed away last December.

Tony mentions how happy his father was that Ronsons would once more be operating on West 41st Avenue.

Mayer had a life long career retailing shoes.

Tony got his start in the shoe business at age 12, working Saturdays as a cashier in one of his father’s shoe stores in Cape Town, South Africa. In 1977 the Aronson family moved to Canada to pursue new opportunities.

6

The Aronsons established both their home and shop in Kerrisdale. Tony loves the neighbourhood and continues to reside here.

When naming the store they were looking for something memorable. By dropping the letter A from their surname they decided Ronsons would be easier to pronounce.

“Our objective has always been to make the experience of buying shoes as comfortable as the shoes customers are purchasing.”

Tony Aronson

April 15 - June 15, 2019

KerrisdaleInsider.com

Tony reports, “It was essential to have people in the business who understood that kindness needs to be given to our customers and that they had the ability to do so. We also realized it was essential to have loyal, long-term employees in place who could continue the culture through the years. We are extremely lucky we have been able to do just that. I am so proud of the team we have in place and the commitment they have to our goal of strengthening and continuing that essential customer experience.”

“I believe in 32 years we have achieved that sense of kindness in our culture and that is what makes me most proud,” he adds.

KerrisdaleInsider.com

Over the years Ronsons has grown by leaps and bounds. There are now 20 locations in B.C. Tony mentions, “As the largest independently owned group of shoe stores in B.C. we work very closely with our suppliers so we can offer the best prices anywhere to our customers.”

You may have noticed not every Ronsons store is identical. The company has created three distinct store concepts: their regular Ronsons locations, Ronsons RACK clearance

stores and Ronsons with a RACK at the back, which is a full blown Ronsons store with a clearance section where you may find the shoe of your dreams.

“We are very conscious of our pricing. Our prices are better than U.S. pricing almost all the time and we have worked with our suppliers to make this happen,” says Tony.

“Our website is a huge part of our business.

We often get orders for shoes to be shipped to the U.S.” Tony Aronson

April 15 - June 15, 2019

KerrisdaleInsider.com

Ronsons has an impressive online presence.

While Tony feels shopping in person makes finding the correct size and feel of the shoe easier, if you are just trying to replace an existing shoe, the website is a convenient way to make a purchase.

The shop’s website also offers a ship to store option.

Customers can browse from the comfort of their home and ship their selection to the Ronsons of their choice to try on for size. Quality and comfort are words that come up often in conversation with Tony. He is actively involved in purchasing and mentions that he shops the world to find the perfect shoes to offer his valued customers.

A few of the many notable brands Ronsons’ carries include Kodiak and Sorel (both proudly Canadian), Ecco, Clarks and the store’s own Ronsports line.

Extending Ronsons’ belief in kindness to the community at large, Tony and his wife Carolyn are actively involved with the Two/ Ten Foundation of Canada. Carolyn heads up B.C.’s donation campaign. She and many dedicated volunteers and donors have collected thousands of pairs of new shoes for Metro Vancouver charities, which distribute shoes to people in need.

needed, or you can donate $1 for a reusable shopping bag. The entire donation goes to an environmental cause; to date Ronsons has raised $6,000 for the David Suzuki Foundation.

Tony concludes, “When my father took a young and inexperienced son on as a partner 32 years ago, who knew where it would go. I always say his biggest strength was letting me make my own mistakes and learn from them. We had a lot of fun building this business. The experience is one I would not trade.”

Ronsons is committed to the environment and strives to keeps things simple and green. Eliminating shopping bags is one way to make a positive step; however, biodegradable plastic bags are available if KerrisdaleInsider.com

Exploring by River Cruise Imagine yourself enjoying a morning espresso on an outdoor terrace aboard a luxurious longboat, as it gently travels down the Danube River. The scenery takes your breath away. You sail past small villages and lush forests, green hillsides with ancient castles dotting the landscape. You’re close enough to see people cycling along a country road.

The ship slows as it approaches your first stop, where you can disembark to explore a city full of history and new experiences.

This is river cruising, one of the most relaxing, interesting, and luxurious ways to explore the world, and one of the fastest growing trends in travel. River cruising offers a completely different view of the world, a more up-close and personal look at some of the most beautiful places on earth. You can travel throughout Europe - along the Danube from Germany to Romania, from Holland to Switzerland along the Rhine; you can river cruise on the Mekong River from Cambodia

to Vietnam, along the Yangtze in China and the Nile in Egypt.

The on-board experience is unparalleled, with fine dining, local entertainment and impeccable, personalized service. Off the ship, you can take advantage of a walking tour with a local guide, or go exploring on your own.

There are more than 30 river cruise operators and over 200 different itineraries all over the world. Every river cruise line has its own unique personality and features to set it apart from the others. Deciding which river cruise company, what cabin type, which itinerary to choose, understanding what’s included and what’s not, can be overwhelming and this is where the services of an experienced travel consultant are critical. The travel professionals at Transat Travel Kerrisdale (604-263-1841) are there to help you make those decisions to ensure your best trip ever!

Transat Travel (formerly Marlin Travel) has been a recognized and trusted name in Canada for over 40 years. All our travel consultants are professionally trained, knowledgeable and experienced, and provide personalized, one-on-one attention.

Ridgepoint Wellness:

Holistic Services in Kerrisdale Story by Sarah Gordon Photos by Sandra Steier It was Garrick Cheung’s aspiration to operate his own massage therapy clinic. Two years ago his dream was fulfilled when he opened Ridgepoint Wellness on West Boulevard.

He says, “When the opportunity presented

itself, I decided to start Ridgepoint Wellness.

I took a chance and I am so pleased I did.”

He graduated from West Coast College of Massage Therapy in 1996. Over the last 23 years Garrick has worked in various areas in the industry including program and clinical development and management; he has also worked in spas and taught at colleges.

Ridgepoint Wellness’ team of health care professionals help you improve or regain quality of life.

People do not always respond identically to the same kind of treatment. With this in mind, Ridgepoint Wellness’ team works towards an integrated health clinic to offer clients more options and customize treatments that will aid in improving their health.

At the moment Ridgepoint Wellness offers registered massage therapy, craniosacral therapy, traditional Chinese medicine, acupuncture and Chinese acupressure.

Garrick mentions, “Our therapists have extensive experience in each of these areas.”

“We are constantly looking for other natural and/or holistic health care services that we can add to complement mainstream medicine.”

Garrick Cheung What makes Ridgepoint Wellness unique?

“Clients comment on how they enjoy our treatment rooms and waiting area. There is a sense of warmth and peacefulness. This

helps them wind down before and during their treatments. I wanted to create a clinic without a clinical feeling. In addition, I am blessed to have an incredible group of therapists, each with different levels of experience and skills. Our team of therapists have diverse styles to match every clients’ needs or preferences,” says Garrick.

From high school students to seniors, Ridgepoint Wellness treats a wide range of clients. Due to the team’s history and experience, people come from across the Lower Mainland for treatments.

Garrick points out, “We are now developing a community presence and so many new clients are locals or people who happen to see the clinic when they walk by.”

“Nothing makes us happier than hearing clients say they not only enjoy and feel better after their treatments, but also want to refer friends and family to us.”

Garrick Cheung

He says, “There are many rewarding aspects to being a massage therapist or anyone involved in the healthcare field. One highlight is being able to use our knowledge and skills to help make a difference in a person’s life, whether it’s helping an athlete with their injuries, treating someone with tension from being slumped over their computer all week, or assisting an elderly person manage pain.”

Many of Garrick’s clients have been using his massage therapy services for over 15 years and have nothing but glowing words to share.

One client attests, “I saw a number of other massage therapists over the years prior to meeting Garrick, and none compare to him when it comes to his knowledge, intuition and caring approach.”

Another client declares, “Garrick is always fantastic at figuring out what areas to focus in on and at what intensity to use to make sure that I feel like I’m walking on air by the time I leave.”

Garrick enjoys all that Kerrisdale has to offer.

He appreciates the small and beautifully maintained neighbourhood where he sees people out and about supporting the shops and services. He is a fan of the Kerrisdale Business Association’s events and believes the new Arbutus Greenway is a huge asset to the area.

Injuries and aches and pains don’t always save themselves for Monday to Friday business hours. With this in mind, Ridgepoint Wellness offers massage services seven days a week. The clinic offers convenient online booking or you can phone for an appointment.

“It’s the greatest compliment to know that we made enough of a difference for clients to share their positive experience with people they know and care about,” remarks Garrick.

Vancouver Debate Academy: The Sport of Competitive Reasoning Article & photos submitted Vancouver Debate Academy (VDA) is a local after-school academy in Kerrisdale specializing in the sport of debate. Our program began in September 2016 with a small team of three long-time Vancouver-based debate coaches. Since then we have expanded to over ​t welve debate coaches,​all of whom were once or are currently debaters the U ​ BC Debate Society, western Canada's most competitive debating club. Adrian Lask, one of our top coaches, has been selected to coach Team Mexico for the upcoming 2019 World Schools Debating Championships in Sri Lanka!

DEBATE​ is a sport of competitive reasoning. Teams take turns speaking for and against a topic to persuade a judge of their argument’s winning qualities. Debating helps: • CONFIDENCE & PUBLIC SPEAKING Debaters practice public speaking every class, developing a crucial skill.

• CRITICAL THINKING Debate is a sport of logical reasoning - debaters learn to be quick thinkers.

• ESSAY WRITING Essays are like debate speeches, requiring logical, structured arguements.

• UNIVERSITY APPLICATIONS Today’s universities increasingly look at extracurricular activities such as debate.

26

April 15 - June 15, 2019

KerrisdaleInsider.com

In the Vancouver Debate Academy’s first year, most of our students were beginners at debating; with our coaching, our debaters w ​ on awards​ at e ​ very ​ high school tournament we competed at in our first year (September 2016 to August 2017). Since then, we have won awards both locally and internationally every year, including our latest success at Stanford this February: VDA students Elizabeth Zhou and Yuki Zhao were the Champion team, taking first place at the 2019 Stanford Invitational in California, while Cynthia Fung and Nick Liu won second place.

This was the first time a Canadian team had ever won the Stanford tournament, much less both 1st and 2nd, as well as other teams that were octa-finalists and triple octa-finalists -- we are very proud of all our debaters. Their dedication and skill is a testament to their motivation and work ethic.

Our goal is to help kids become sharp thinkers and fearless speakers by providing them rigorous classroom practice and opportunities to compete at challenging competitions.

We accommodate students at different levels of debating skill by placing them in classes best for their ability - ​foundations​, ​intermediate​, and ​advanced​ for regular classes, and a special competitive​ program for the Vancouver Debate Academy’s top debaters. Classes are divided by age as well as level, and range from 3 to 8 students.

VDA’s goal is to tailor debate coaching to the needs and abilities of the students. While there is a general curriculum focused on introducing students to the key skills and knowledge areas in competitive debate, coaches will adjust the timing and content of the general curriculum to the progress of students and upcoming tournaments. As students are confirmed to compete at tournaments throughout the year, coaches will have to adjust class plans according to tournament attendance. This allows classes to transition from general skill-building toward intensive competitive preparation when necessary.

KerrisdaleInsider.com

April 15 - June 15, 2019

27

Overall the curriculum goals for each semester are to practice or introduce students to: • • • • •

Effective argumentation, rebuttal and speech structure, Debate rules and conventions, Good debating habits (like note-taking and effective research), Various contemporary issues, Advanced strategy and important debating tactics (such as weighing impacts and using case studies).

In terms of contemporary issues, students can expect to learn about: • • • •

Purpose and features of the criminal justice system Major issues in international relations Basic ideas in economics as they relate to debate rounds Relevant current events, which may include • use of force by police • the treatment of minorities • the benefits and harms of government policies These knowledge areas are spread throughout multiple semesters rather than a single semester and where topics for a tournament are known in advance the curriculum is adjusted to align classes with tournament preparation.

Debate is a fun, engaging, and competitive way to build friendships, advance skills, and gain world knowledge. It is our belief that everyone benefits from debate. For many, the benefits of debate are practical skills like confidence or engaging with global issues, while for some debate is about competing to win debate tournaments - the Vancouver Debate Academy promises to take on anyone who is ready to learn.

Kerrisdale’s Iconic Sequoia Tree

by Terri Clark, Kerrisdale Business Association To everyone’s disappointment, the iconic Sequoia tree in the 2300 Block of West 41st Avenue succumbed to whatever ailed it and was taken down by the property owner on March 2, 2019.

The tremendous task of dismantling this huge woody sentinel on a major emergency route in Vancouver, called for a late night removal starting at 10 pm and finishing up at 4 am.

The Kerrisdale Business Association was able to negotiate for an 18 foot piece of the tree from the butt end (71 inches across). Kerrisdale Lumber owner Mark Perry arranged the transport of the wood and it will eventually be milled and transformed into beautiful benches for the Arbutus Greenway. A plaque is planned paying homage to an omnipresent landmark that had its start over 100 years ago when Kerrisdale too was just a whippersnapper. Gone but not forgotten.
