A rig catches fire on Highway 99 Tuesday.
Plumes of black smoke filled the skies over South Surrey Tuesday after fire engulfed the cab of a semi-trailer headed south on Highway 99 around 12:45 p.m. Exactly what caused the fire is still unclear, deputy fire Chief Jon Caviglia said, however, there were no reports of injury. “Lots of fire, but not much story,” Caviglia said the next day. Onlookers who lined Croydon Drive to get
a glimpse of the fire told Peace Arch News they heard several “big booms” and came running to see what had happened. “We could feel the heat,” said Brian Carse, who spotted the smoke from Morgan Crossing. “I actually shot video when it exploded. A car was driving by just as it blew – it must’ve scared the crap out of them. “I hope he got out,” Carse said of the driver. Warren Anderson, a Grandview Corners manager, was on his way to lunch when he heard the noise.
“The battery blew up first, then the tires started exploding,” Anderson said. “The flames were probably at first 50 to 60 feet. It’s pretty wild.” Ian Demrey, a Cloverdale resident, said the rig was smoking when he passed it in the 2600-block of the highway. Demrey described the vehicle, which was pulling a load of cement blocks, as a training tractor. “I was like, ‘holy smokes,’” Demrey said. “First time I’ve seen a rig burn right down like that.”
Surrey man sues city
Cannon lawsuit derided Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter
A Cloverdale man, fed up with apparent inaction to quell blueberry-cannon noise, is suing the City of Surrey for “unanticipated expense and emotional harm.” In his claim, Jim McMurtry accuses the city of neglecting “to discharge its duty to enforce its own bylaws.” “The city turns a blind eye to many of its bylaws, from monster homes and truck parking on the ALR to cosmetic pesticides and the Jim McMurtry destruction of active bird nests. More to the point here, it neglects to ever fine a farmer that violates its noise law on the use of propane cannons,” McMurtry writes in an email to media. But city solicitor Craig MacFarlane doubts the suit – in which McMurtry is seeking partial reimbursement of funds spent on property he bought in the U.S. to escape the noise – would go far. see page A4

Abandoned boat leads rescue crew on seven-hour search
‘Until you know the owner’s safe, you look’ Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter
A report of an overturned vessel in Boundary Bay led marine rescue crews to scour waters for several hours Tuesday in search of whomever may have been onboard. Fortunately, the owner was located safe and sound – after seven hours. He had apparently left the skiff anchored off Point Roberts after the boat broke down, and didn’t advise author-

ities when he returned to discover it missing. While pleased with the happy ending, rescue co-ordination officials said the extensive search could have been easily averted. “It took quite a bit of work,” said Steve Church, maritime co-ordinator at the Joint Rescue Co-ordination Centre. “Until you know for sure that the owner’s safe, you’ve got to keep searching. “It sort of shows the value of notifying the

Coast Guard when you leave a vessel out there.” Church said in addition to the Crescent Beach auxiliary team, the search effort involved the Canadian Coast Guard hovercraft and a U.S. Coast Guard helicopter. Sig Kristensen, a member of the Crescent Beach auxilliary, said it was “kind of disconcerting” not knowing if the vessel’s owner was safe. see page A4

due to Layton and in part due to Priddy’s friendship with former MP Chuck Cadman, who was elected in 2004 as an independent and was much-loved in his constituency. Cadman died of cancer in 2005. Meanwhile, the provincial NDP were finding their feet. While Layton played less of a role in that, his high personal profile helped to put the NDP back on the radar screen as a contender at all levels. Priddy’s decision not to run again in 2008 was a temporary setback for the federal NDP in the Surrey region, but Layton kept looking for good candidates. In the May election, two of his recruits, Jasbir Sandhu in Surrey North and Ginny Sims in Newton-North Delta, won their seats. This gives the NDP the strongest federal representation it has ever had from Surrey. Layton was in Surrey numerous times before and during the campaign. He was on a first-name basis with many local NDP members. And perhaps most importantly, his ability as a leader to articulate a vision for his party attracted many young people to work on the campaigns – more than in any NDP campaign in memory. He empowered many people who weren’t all that political, and made them feel that they can effect positive change. The NDP will have a tough time finding a leader to fill his shoes. Layton’s hard work in building the party across Canada, and in Surrey, was exceptional. Frank Bucholtz writes Fridays for the Peace Arch News. He is the editor of the Langley Times.

White Rock takes inventory of its trees Alex Browne Staff Reporter
Young workers tagging and measuring trees on city property in White Rock over the past couple of months have been cause for some alarm among residents. But they shouldn’t fear the trees were being targeted for removal, says White Rock engineering director Rob Thompson. “It’s quite the opposite,” Thompson said this week. “We’re developing a database of trees to make sure they are preserved as long as, and whenever, possible,” he said, adding the program is part of a recognition that trees are a valuable asset for the city, both aesthetically and practically. “They help us control storm water run-off, for example.” The inventory project is a co-op placement of four university students with the city that
began this June and ends this week. The program will probably be continued for the next two years, Thompson explained, until a complete inventory can be compiled. Under the guidance of city arborist Aelicia Otto, this year’s students have been Simon Fraser fourth-year geographic information systems (GIS) major Jerry Mo; third-year UBC forestry resource management major Shane Jobber, fourth-year forestry major Laiyi Chow and Siew Law, who has her bachelors’ degree in forestry from UBC and is currently pursuing her masters in GIS at the University of Calgary. During a brief break from their assignment at White Rock’s Allan Hogg Rotary Park Wednesday, the team members explained their jobs, which are also giving them valuable experience that will help them gain employment in their field.

University students compile tree data. Law, equipped with a GPS unit, has been pre-surveying trees, tagging them for detailed inspection by Chow and Jobber. “We’ve assessed them by species, height,
size, and overall health, inspecting them for insects and disease and any other problems that would affect the tree,” Jobber said. “It’s a very proactive approach to tree resource management,” Chow said. IT specialist for the group is Mo, who said he has been gaining experience using “cutting-edge technology” employed by the city, while building up a detailed database from the information gathered by the others. “It’s very exciting for a small city like White Rock to be creating an inventory of this kind,” said Otto. “Jerry’s programming allows us to compare different aspects of trees to one an other, and compare to an ideal example of each species. “For an important community resource like trees, it gives us a more accurate picture of what we’re dealing with, and allows us to design how we move forward.”
Drug blast An explosion in a basement meth lab rocked neighbours in Newton Monday and left a plume of smoke and the sharp odour of chemicals hanging in the air. Witnesses saw a white man in his mid-30s flee the area on a bicycle, while yelling at them to get away from the house in the 7200-block of 140A Street. An RCMP spokesman described the clandestine drug lab as a “pretty small operation” with no apparent links to organized crime. A suspect has not yet been found, but police believe he may have suffered burns.

Crash site not on City of Surrey’s radar Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter
Residents hoping for a degree of traffic calming at the intersection of Stayte Road (160 Street) and Pacific Avenue (10 Avenue) may be wise not to get their hopes up. City officials in Surrey say it’s unlikely there will be changes in the area anytime soon, for two reasons: traffic volume, speed and collision statistics don’t warrant it; and, city policy prohibits any calming on the two roads. Neighbours Dianne Dickinson and Julie Thorsen told Peace Arch News Monday that the corner has been the site of regular collisions and close calls – the most recent on Aug. 20 – for years. After Saturday’s incident, in which police say a driver westbound on 10th failed to stop for a stop sign and collided with a SUV northbound on 160th, the pair decided to speak out. But City of Surrey engineer Philip Bellefontaine said change is not currently in the cards

Police say the incident took place around 4 a.m. in the 15500-block of 36 Avenue, after the resident heard his garage door open. He confronted the male, who fled. Officers, including a policedog team, were dispatched, but the man – a skinny, six-foot tall Caucasian male – was not located. A GPS unit was reported missing.

City not enforcing bylaws: lawsuit 55% OFF
from page A1 “He claims that he had to buy a vacation home in Washington State because he can’t stand the noise of blueberry cannons,” MacFarlane told Peace Arch News Wednesday. “I don’t think the taxpayers of Surrey would want to subsidize somebody’s vacation residence. That’s what he’s asking for.” McMurtry, a teacher who lives near 168 Street and Highway 10, lodged his complaint at the provincial small claims court in Surrey Friday. In his claim, McMurtry alleges the city has done nothing to protect his family from the cannons, “even when their use contravenes the city’s own noise bylaws.” According to the bylaw, a noisescare device may be used to protect berry crops provided certain conditions are met, including: the device is only operated between 6:30 a.m. and noon, and 3-8 p.m. (or dawn to dusk, whichever is lesser); no more than one device is operated per two hectares of crop; the device is only used for wildlife predation management and not prior to the onset of bird damage or after the crop is harvested; single-shot devices fire no more than once per five minutes; and, the device is not located within 150 metres of a neighbouring residence within the Agricultural Land Reserve, or within 200 metres of a neighbouring residence located outside the ALR. Offenders are liable to a fine of up to $2,000 per offence.

Use of blueberry cannons is restricted, under Surrey legislation. But McMurtry said the city has yet to issue any fines, despite concerns raised by residents over the years, and despite a 2010 decision by the Farm Industry Review Board that McMurtry says proves farmers routinely violate noise bylaws. According to the decision – McMurtry v Sekhon, Jan. 29, 2010, posted on the FIRB website – respondents’ use and management of propane cannons was not consistent with guidelines established regarding firing frequency, monitoring and relocation of cannons on farms operating near 168 Street and Highway 10. They were ordered to modify their practices accordingly. MacFarlane said the “very few” complaints fielded by the city are investigated and typically are referred to a liaison with the Growers’ Association of B.C.,
who contacts the owner of any cannons reported to be malfunctioning. Because the cannons’ use comes under B.C.’s Right to Farm Act, there is little more the city can do, he said. “The provincial legislation doesn’t allow us to interfere in farming operations,” he said. “It’s out of our jurisdiction.” McMurtry blames the city’s continued inaction to enforce its own rules on officials not wanting to lose farmers’ votes. “The city continues to duck from issues because it places electoral support from the farm industry above its own law,” he said by email to Peace Arch News. McMurtry is suing the city for $25,000 plus court costs. MacFarlane said the city will file its response “fairly quickly.”

On their way back to Crescent Beach Marina, after towing that vessel back to Blaine, the rescue team spotted a second vessel that appeared to be in trouble. Investigating, they learned the two-man crew – who had no
compass, cellphone, radio or lifejackets onboard – had become lost trying to return to Blaine. After multiple efforts to point them in the right direction were unsuccessful, the auxiliary crew escorted the boat in. Kristensen noted occupants of both vessels appeared unswayed by the conditions on the water. “When these guys went out, they knew it was there,” he said.

editorial
A provocative tax proposal igh home costs are increasingly pricing people out of the real estate market and raising questions about Metro Vancouver’s long-term affordability and sustainability. The market’s rise has been partly driven by an influx of foreign investment, including a steady parade of buyers from China. Meanwhile, the struggle continues to find new funding for TransLink for much-needed transit expansion without inflicting too much pain on already heavily taxed residents and motorists. Gas taxes, vehicle levies and tolls are all hugely unpopular, raising the spectre that political paralysis may freeze any improvements, including the Evergreen Line. So here’s one provocative proposal that might help put a dent in both problems: Double TransLink’s current residential property tax rates. But at the same time, create a homeowner grant that rebates 50 per cent of the TransLink tax. Like the homeowner grant on municipal property tax, the TransLink version would exclude second vacation homes and disqualify owners who aren’t Canadian citizens or landed immigrants. There’d be no change in the $230 a year in property tax the average resident homeowner pays for a typical $650,000 house in Metro Vancouver. Most working folks would notice no difference. But the transportation authority would suck twice as much cash from foreign buyers, other non-resident owners and speculators. A $4-million luxury condo owned by a Hollywood starlet, Shanghai business magnate or Alberta oil tycoon – who jets in once or twice a year – might bring $2,800 to TransLink each year instead of the current $1,400. And why shouldn’t they pay more? They come to enjoy Vancouver’s legendary livability yet make no permanent commitment to the region and use scarce housing inefficiently. Others who would pay more are qualifying residents with homes worth more than whatever cap is set for the benefit. (The civic grant is phased out for homes worth more than $1.3 million.) TransLink currently collects nearly $300 million a year in property tax. Not all of that is residential and only a small fraction comes from non-qualifying homeowners. But doubling what they pay might still generate an extra $20 or $30 million a year – a significant chunk towards TransLink’s $70-million-ayear upgrade plan, perhaps avoiding the use of one of the less palatable revenue sources. And if a selective TransLink tax hike on nonresidents or other owners of ritzy homes takes even a bit of the juice out of our overheated real estate market, so much the better.

Behind me: The classic hybrid, forehead and temple working together, as a guy in a truck skulks down to his left, having a conversation with a little black box next to his ear. Is the forehead jealous of the temple? I often see those hybrids from behind in silhouette or in my rearview mirror, where the driver’s head is tilted left of the headrest while talking, right of it for reading and texting. The straight-on forehead is the most fascinating. It’s common enough that one can see it every few minutes in heavy traffic at moderate speeds or at stop lights. Since I’m driving, I can’t exactly watch these people for long and make mental notes about timing – how long will their foreheads be in control? I guess it’s like the tides, set to their own intervals. Or perhaps there’s another factor in play – maybe another sense that comes into effect in times of stress or possible danger. Multi-tasking these days can be a minefield. Be thankful that the forehead has moved to its rightful place in the narrative of human evolution.

No fear of retribution Editor: Re: Call For for calm in Crescent Beach, Aug. 18. We are appalled at the brazen attack and gang beating of Erik Seiz by teenagers at Crescent Beach. Had Seiz been a lawyer or judge, those hoodlums would have been put in jail; instead, they were released to their parents. They should have spent the night in jail – separately – and their parents called early in the morning, and perhaps that might frighten them into not wanting to do it again. I hope Seiz and BC Medical sue each of the parents for monies lost in medical costs and the pain and suffering Seiz is going to have to endure because their kids are out drinking and looking for trouble. What is happening here? Why are there so many gangs of kids with nothing to do but create disturbances? What are we – society – doing wrong? Are we so lenient in our legal system that no one has any fear of retribution any more? Obviously, something must be done, and done soon. These kids need to be dealt accordingly. Pat Porter, Surrey
correct their errant behaviour. Small wonder that fewer victims of crime come forward. In essence, do not blame the police – or in this case the lack of their presence in numbers – for the actions of those who have been coddled and not punished adequately for their behaviour, but rather, examine the fundamental cause of the behaviour of the miscreants themselves. For every charter “right” that these folks have, there are far more responsibilities that they fail to recognize. Jim Simpson, Surrey
We’re ready to join Surrey Editor: Re: Future of White Rock looks north, Aug. 18 letters. White Rock has never made any sense economically – and given its geographic configuration and residential nature, it never will. Building highrises where they probably do not belong will never solve the problem. The recent articulate and wellthought-out letters to the editor, and the informal online poll conducted by Peace Arch News, make it clear the public understands this.
So what are the things that really matter? 1. Continued use of White Rock as a term to describe the area on this side of 99 – unless it already has a name, like Ocean Park or Crescent Beach. 2. Good water. It used to be this was assured by being in the White Rock city limits but is now more likely assured by a more capable inspection service provided by a larger city like Surrey. 3. Positive support to White Rock employees, as they transition to a different administration. 4. And the real clincher: for current White Rock residents, a guarantee that we get a parking sticker for as long as we stay in the current boundaries of White Rock. It is time for our local politicians – city and province – to apply some common sense and move the amalgamation forward expeditiously before more money is wasted on duplicate facilities, employees and services, planning studies, branding, etc. Just remember the parking stickers! David Ulis, White Rock Q As a resident of White Rock, I must say I am unhappy with the disparity in taxes we residents must pay when compared with Surrey, Richmond and other municipalities. With increasing demands for
services and the rising costs of policing, fire protection and infrastructure, I believe our municipal government will soon find that being an “independent” municipality is unsustainable. This being the case, we sorely need a person or persons to champion the cause of what I see as the inevitable re-amalgamation of White Rock and Surrey. Duplication of services and the operation of another redundant local government make no sense. To think that White Rock can continue into the future as is would be to deny reality.

Blame those responsible Editor: I would like to commend Vancouver Police Dsepartment Chief Jim Chu for his candor, concerning the lack of charges laid here as opposed to those laid in the U.K. My only criticism is that he did not expand sufficiently to lay blame where it rightfully belongs. The difference, as pointed out, between Vancouver and London is that we have Pierre Trudeau’s Charter of Rights, while Britain works on the criminal system that we used prior to the Charter of 1982. There was absolutely nothing wrong with that system and, in fact, the majority of citizens felt safer then than they do now. In fact, police here used to lay charges the same as has been done in London. After the charter introduction, accountability for virtually everything was foisted on the police rather than the offending individuals. The bringing of the administration of justice into disrepute has already been accomplished by the judiciary themselves. In Canada, many or most lawyers have been made wealthy since 1982 dealing with ancillary detail, rather than substance, with respect to criminal matters. At the same time, victims have been neglected, belittled and retaliated against for identifying criminals and their behaviour. At the same time, criminals have been treated with kid gloves, so as not to

Fencing off the forested area near Bayridge Elementary does little to help the neighbourhood, writes Heidi Bumann.
And we live happily every after? Editor: This is a story about our Bayridge neighbourhood. Not very long ago, we had a big forest and marsh area, surrounded by many houses. And then, 19 years ago, a school was built with a playground, soccer field and a large grass area. People brought their children, grandchildren and great-grand children. One bigger forest was left for us nature lovers, a smaller one for folks to walk through or sit in the shade of the over hanging tree branches. With the school came terrible graffiti, weekend parties, broken bottles and lots of garbage but, on the whole, a lovely spot for the neighbourhood children and grown-ups. And then, this spring, “big ideas” sprung from someone’s mind: “Let’s put a very high chain link fence around the small forest.” If you sit in the grass outside the fence, you can still see the branches of the trees in the distance.
And if you are lucky you might even spot a bird. Well, that big fence is a big eyesore. But not to worry, children, even though the adults did such a silly thing as putting the beautiful trees behind six-foot fences, these lovely trees will still be able to contribute to our healthier environment. Of course, fences that large come with a big expense. Next spending spree for us. Dig up the ground under the swings, bring in men, machines, pipes and a mountain of wood chips. Take out all the pea gravel, dig, weed, put in a large cement barrier. Ouch, that could hurt when you fall on it, you could lose a tooth – but then there is always the tooth fairy. Let’s just hope that someone’s big ideas turn out to be in everyone’s best interest, and we all hope that next year’s budget will not be big enough to have another “big idea” happen in or around our neighbourhood forests.

CITY NEWS REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL
PUBLIC INFORMATION MEETING
ICBC AUTOPLAN FLEET INSURANCE
1444 Vidal Street
The City of White Rock is inviting proposals for the provision of certain ICBC Autoplan fleet insurance coverage. The City operates a fleet of approximately 65 units, comprised of various types of motor vehicles and equipment.
The City of White Rock has received an application for Zoning Amendment and a Major Development Permit to rezone a RS-1 residential lot to a CD zone to permit the construction of five (5) townhouse units. A public information meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, August 30, 2011 from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. at White Rock Centennial Arena (14600 North Bluff Road) for the public to review this application. The meeting will be an open house format with display outlining the details of the proposed development.
A Request for Proposals setting out specific requirements can be obtained at Administration, City Hall, 15322 Buena Vista Avenue, White Rock, Monday to Friday, except statutory holidays, between the hours of 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. Proposals are to be submitted to the City Clerk no later than 11:00 a.m. Thursday, September 15, 2011. For information concerning the above, please contact Sandra Kurylo, Director of Financial Services at 604.541.2111.
For more information, please contact Planning and Development Services at White Rock City Hall, 15322 Buena Vista Avenue, or phone 604.541.2155, or e-mail planning@city.whiterock.bc.ca.
PUBLIC INFORMATION MEETING 1455 and 1465 Vidal Street
TEMPORARY RELOCATION OF BUS LAYOVER The City is making changes to improve the safety of North Bluff Rd from Martin Street to Johnston Road which recently necessitated a temporary relocation of the bus layover to the 1500-block of Foster Street. This temporary move allows work to be done on North Bluff Road that will increase safety in the area. From widening the sidewalk, to encapsulating the hydro polls and the installation of an improved crosswalk, this work will greatly improve the safety of both pedestrians and vehicles along North Bluff Road. Although some parking stalls were affected by the move of the bus layover, this was the only location that would work from a safety and operational perspective. The parking on the west side of Foster Street is still available and there is city owned public parking available under the Miramar Tower that can be accessed from Russell Avenue. As mentioned, this is temporary and the cities of White Rock and Surrey, and the Coast Mountain Bus company, are working to identify a more suitable location for the permanent bus layover. It should also be noted that a bus layover is not a bus stop; it is an area where buses park for designated breaks for bus personnel. For more information, contact the department of Engineering and Municipal Operations at 604.541.2181.
The City of White Rock has received an application for Zoning Amendment and a Major Development Permit to rezone two RS-1 residential lots to a CD zone to permit the construction of eight (8) townhouse units. A public information meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, August 30, 2011 from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m. at White Rock Centennial Arena (14600 North Bluff Road) for the public to review this application. The meeting will be an open house format with display outlining the details of the proposed development. For more information, please contact Planning and Development Services at White Rock City Hall, 15322 Buena Vista Avenue, or phone 604.541.2155, or e-mail planning@city.whiterock.bc.ca.

Recent changes a smart move: Surrey School Board chair
Scholarship rules overhauled Tom Fletcher & Tricia Leslie Black Press
Surrey School Board chair Laurae McNally thinks a change made by the Ministry of Education is a smart move. B.C.’s high school grads were leaving millions in scholarship money on the table by not writing optional final exams, so the education ministry has changed the system to make sure the aid gets to students who do well on mandatory tests. “It’s like the Ministry of Education is finally catching up to reality,” McNally said. Optional scholarship exams for Grade 12 have been dropped for this school year, after post-secondary institutions changed their admission criteria and no longer use Grade 12 optional tests.
Provincial scholarships will now be awarded to students based on the required provincial exams in place for Grades 10-12. The exam system was changed in 2004. “I think this is a progressive move,” said McNally. “Now all the scholarship money is going to required exams only. That makes sense to me, because students are not writing the optional ones, they are only writing the mandatory exams.” Only one in five Grade 12 students chose to write optional scholarship exams. Provincial scholarships are typically $1,000, with the top 20 students receiving $2,500. Before the changes, B.C. used to give out about $5 million worth. Courses that now have required
provincial exams are Science 10, Apprenticeship and Workplace Mathematics 10, Foundations of Mathematics and Pre-calculus 10, Social Studies 11, B.C. First Nations Studies 12, Civic Studies 11, English 10, English 10 First Peoples, French 12 and Communications 12. “B.C.’s exam program continues to be one of the most rigorous in Canada,” Education Minister George Abbott said. “Our students compete globally, and we know one of the best ways we can support their bright future is through a solid post-secondary education. “That’s why we’ve modernized our provincial scholarship criteria to better assist and reward students in their pursuit of higher education.”

Home Instead Senior Care’s White Rock location is inviting the community to take part in a recipe contest that encourages families to prepare and share a meal with their senior loved one. The contest is part of a public education program, Craving Companionship, that was created after a research study conducted for Home Instead Senior Care network showed that lack of the shared family experience is the biggest mealtime challenge for seniors. The program offers family caregiver tips and practical advice to encourage companionship and easy healthy meals, and is designed to help combat elderly depression and loneliness. “Many seniors need help planning and preparing nutritious meals,” Wes
UPDATE YOUR HOME WITH
Colby, owner of Home Instead Senior Care in White Rock, said in a release. “But that’s only part of the story. Many seniors want to relive a time around the dinner table when they are sharing their lives with the people they love most.” For the Homemade Memories Recipe Contest, family caregivers are encouraged to find a favourite family dish they can share with a senior in their life. Families then have until Sept. 15 to enter the recipe and a story about what makes the dish special. Proceeds will go to the non-profit Home Instead Senior Care Foundation to benefit North American seniors. For more details, including guidelines and prizes, visit www. mealsandcompanionship.com

Party set to hit the street On Sept. 10, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., White Rock’s uptown business district invites the public to join the Uptown Street Festival, which is to include a chili cook-off, live music and kids activities. And this year, everyone is being encouraged to bring their pet pooches to enjoy the event, in a firstever festival dog show. “They don’t have to be a particular breed or anything,” said White Rock BIA executive director Sherri Wilson Morrisette. “It’s all about having fun – and bringing your dog to have fun too.” Prizes will be awarded, including Best Dressed and Dog the Judges Would Like to Take Home; dog portraits will also be offered by donation, with proceeds going to ovarian cancer research. Participants can register the day of the Uptown Street Festival at Central Plaza. The Main Stage – one of three stages set up for the day – will feature Red Beans and Rice, Yours Truly, Freedom 95 and more on the east side of Johnston Street and Russell Avenue. The Todd Brewer School of Music Stage – in the north parking lot of Central Plaza – is to feature many talented students from the school, while the Performance Stage will have demonstrations from Live Yoga, FloMotion, Seung-Ri Wttu Black Belt
Academy and Arthur Murray Dance Studio at the latter’s Russell Avenue location. Outside the Box Art Exhibition – a celebration of art in fibre and textiles – will be held at White Rock Community Centre on Russell Avenue and Knitopia on Johnston Road, and the Family Fun Zone will be in the south parking lot of Central Plaza with kidfriendly activities. Back for its third year, the Chili Cook-off Contest invites visitors to vote for their favourite recipe and help raise funds for Rotary community projects. A fundraising barbecue will also be held at Penguin Meats on Johnston Road.

Brokers awarded The Canadian Mortgage Professionals (CMP) Top 50 Mortgage Brokers Awards has been announced, and six of the top 50 brokers in the country can be found in Surrey. The winners were selected by the volume and number of their transactions. “While volume is by no means the only mark of success in the mortgage brokering industry, it’s a measurement that shows someone’s ability to bring in business – a key trait to a thriving mortgage professional,” says Mortgage Broker News, which released the numbers. Placing 12th in the country is Bill Macklem, with Dominion Macklem Mortgages, who
handed just over $91 million in volume last year in 300 deals. Coming in at 22nd was Cindy Faulkner, with Verico Coastal Mortgages. She funded $65 million in mortgages, over 187 deals. Coming in at 24th, Sharnjit Gill, of Verico Superior Mortgage, funded $63.8 million in 193 deals. At 30th spot is Luisah Hough, with Exclusive Mortgage Professionals. She funded $59 million in 140 deals. Aman Khatkar, with Verico, was placed at 44, with $42.6 million in 130 deals. And placing 48th, Tonia Jacobsen of Dominion Lending Centres Coastal Mortgages funded $41.8 million in 144 deals. – Kevin Diakiw

The Prime Minister’s Volunteer Awards recognize the exceptional contributions of volunteers, local businesses and innovative not-for-profit organizations in improving the well-being of families and their communities. If you know a volunteer, innovative not-for-profit organization or a local business

Nominations submitted by mail must be postmarked no later than the deadline. • All nominees must have contributed to addressing social challenges in their community. • Political and publicadvocacy work are excluded. Award recipients will be recognized at an award ceremony which will be held in the winter and their achievements will be profiled. All award recipients will receive a medal, a Prime Minister’s Volunteer Awards pin and a letter of congratulations
from the Prime Minister. In addition, regional award recipients will be eligible to identify a not-for-profit organization to receive a $5,000 grant. National award recipients will be eligible to identify a notfor-profit organization to receive a $10,000 grant. In order to be eligible to receive a grant, recipients must be not-for-profit organizations, including registered charities, helping improve life outcomes for people with disabilities, children and families, and other vulnerable populations.

Q
I was in a lawsuit with my former wife. My Àrst lawyer told me that the most I would be charged for legal fees by the other side if I lost was about 20-25% of my wife’s legal bill. I have a lot more money than her so I made it really difÀcult for her to get information about my business affairs to the point of not complying with court orders for production of my private corporate affairs which I belive is none of my wife’s business. I replaced my lawyer several times. Now I have gone to court and I now am told that I must pay pretty well all my wife’s legal bills. What gives? Was my Àrst lawyer wrong? No, he was right because in nearly all cases the winner gets about 20% to 25% of his or her legal fees paid by the loser. However, if a Judge Ànds that your conduct of the action is egregious and disrespectful of court proceedings and deserving of punishment, then an order may be granted that you pay “special costs” which amount to paying most of your former wife’s legal bills including the extra costs of attempting to get information from you.

FREE INTRO LESSON
The Surrey branch of the BC SPCA has hundreds of kittens looking for homes, and will be holding an adopt-a-thon Saturday from noon to 2:30 p.m. Contributed photo
Kittens looking for homes Ever thought of giving a furry bundle of joy a home? No better time than now, say representatives at the Surrey branch of the BC SPCA. They’re holding a special kitten adopt-a-thon Saturday from noon to 2:30 p.m. and encourage members of the public to come see the more than 220 cats and kittens available to good homes. “We’ve got long-haired cats, short-haired cats, black cats,
white cats, brown cats, tabbies, calicos and torties galore,� says branch manager Valerie Sigler. “If you’ve been thinking about getting a kitten or a cat, now is a great time to come see the wonderful animals we have.� The shelter, located at 6706 152 St., has 65 cats and kittens, as well as another 180 kittens in foster care in the community. Animals at the shelter can be viewed during regular visiting hours,
while the foster kittens can be viewed during the adopt-a-thon. The shelter is also seeking temporary foster homes for mother cats with litters, orphaned kittens who need bottle feeding and for injured and adult cats. The appeal comes at a time when BC SPCA branches across the province are dealing with an influx of kittens from summer litters. Call 604-597-5655 for more information.
This summer could be a scorcher.

Remember your vacation. Not the medical bills. The days are getting shorter, grey skies and dreary weather are looming. If you’re planning an extended fall or winter trip south in search of sunny blue skies, you are probably also planning your travel insurance. If you’re like many snowbirds, you may even have an annual policy to cover you throughout the year. However, if you are heading away for a longer period of time, here are a few travel insurance factors to consider before driving or jetting off:
For more information, visit www.BCforestďŹ reinfo.gov.bc.ca
Typically, emergency medical insurance is for just that – emergencies. It is not the same as provincial health care, which covers regular doctor visits. Most benefits end once the medical emergency is over and will not cover you for ongoing consultation and treatment. 6 O L O P X J O H M Z continuing with GPMMPX VQ EPDUPS visits could result in a costly medical bill for which you would be responsible.

he never considered a career as a firefighter when she was younger because she didn’t know women could become one. “It was never really a dream of mine because I didn’t think it was something that was really possible,” says Surrey teen Tamara, a Grade 12 Queen Elizabeth Secondary student said. It’s an unfortunate misconception amongst girls, according to Tim Dykeman, Surrey Fire Service’s recruitment co-ordinator, who said the field today has less gender discrimination and is ❝All of us have attracting more and more this courage to females. “We are starting to see really want to women who are saying, help people...❞ ‘you know what, I can do this,’” Dykeman said. Tamara camp participant “It’s just like welding or truck driving… it used to be one of those things that just wasn’t considered because it wasn’t considered a career for women. “I personally went through fire school with some fantastic women who earned a ton of my respect.” Dykeman noted firefighting still generally tends to be male-dominated; Surrey Fire Service is almost 92 per cent male ,with eight female firefighters. So, to encourage young women to consider the career path, a group of female firefighters from a dozen different departments in the Lower Mainland facilitated a mentorship camp for girls ages 16 to 18. The program

In May, Surrey Fire Service and Surrey Firefighters Association ran an essay contest through Surrey School District to select two local residents to participate in the camp. When Tamara heard about the opportunity, she jumped on board, choosing her mother as the subject of her
essay on who inspires her most. “I thought, ‘hey, that’s a good idea, that’s a new experience.” Tamara (who requested her last name not be published) said she was intrigued by a career that would allow her to save lives, help the community and “do something that not many other people get to do.” The program was held Aug. 5-7 at a training camp in Vancouver and the YWCA.
Tamara and the other contest winner, Queen Elizabeth Secondary grad Angela Barna, learned skills such as fire-extinguisher use, search and rescue techniques, working with ropes and knots and CPR training. Campers also mastered the Grouse Grind and attended a climbing gym. “It was very demanding,” Tamara said, noting the 17 girls who took part helped each other get through it. “All of us have this courage to really want to help people and that made them so easy to become friends with and easy to trust.” But it was the female firefighters training the girls who made the biggest impact, Tamara said. “They were very empowering – they are all very strong women and they’re all very accomplished and happy,” she said. “Even if a girl felt like maybe firefighting wasn’t her thing, those women taught us so much anyways, no matter what career you’re going to be in.” Tamara said she learned courage from the women, as well as the importance of companionship. “You don’t have to go through everything alone – you have friends.” Tamara said firefighting is still a possibility for her future, but the camp experience will be beneficial no matter what career paths participants take. “It teaches us that we can be strong – we don’t need a man to do all this, we can do it ourselves. We might need other women to do it, but we can still get it done,” she said. “I think if you have the strength in your mind to do this, then you should definitely do this because it will definitely change your life.”

AUDITIONS
Smoke prompts human-rights case The Arndts’ problems with the neighbour’s smoking stretches back two years, when Kathryn Arndt wrote to the strata manager, Gerry Blanchard, saying her asthma had become worse as a result of Puffer’s smoking. Arndt said she had to go to the hospital emergency department in June 2009 for ventalin treatment. Puffer was fined $25 by the strata the following year and was sent a warning letter that she was in contravention of the complex’s bylaws and those of the City of Surrey. Chelsea Gardens argued it had enforced its bylaws and that there was nothing more they could do under the circumstances. The Arndts, however, maintain Chelsea

A Surrey woman who claims her neighbour’s cigarette smoke is a hazard to her health will have her case heard by the B.C. Human Rights Tribunal. Kathryn and Douglas Arndt filed a complaint against Chelsea Gardens Strata Corp. and Maureen Puffer, who lives in a townhouse below them. The couple alleges Puffer smokes in the garage, on the patio and in other areas of the strata complex and that the smoke wafts into their home, triggering Kathryn Arndt’s chronic asthma. Chelsea Gardens is a 235-unit complex near 138 Street and 70 Avenue.
Firm must pay: judge
Gardens “has not taken effective steps to restrain” Puffer from smoking. In her defence, Puffer questioned the degree to which the smoke affects the Arndts, arguing she wasn’t breaking any bylaws, and said she would “not be harassed or be a prisoner” in her own home. The defendants – both Puffer and Chelsea Gardens – applied to have the human rights case dismissed. In a decision Aug. 10, tribunal member Murray Geiger-Adams threw out the complaint against Puffer, but said the case against the strata will proceed. Geiger-Adams suggested mediation might lead to a resolution rather than conducting a hearing.

“Spend your money on your social life. Not on your phone.”
An insurance firm that blamed a Surrey family for setting fire to their home has been ordered to pay more than $160,000. The Sidhu family bought a home at 13875 88 Ave. in 1990, and in 2005 purchased fire insurance from Wawanesa. On Feb. 7, 2005, their home caught fire, a blaze determined to be arson. “Wawanesa refused to pay them for the loss because they allege the Sidhus deliberately started the fire in order to recover the insurance money,” Justice Trevor Armstrong wrote in a ruling made public last week. Armstrong found no compelling proof the Sidhus started the fire. Six years after the initial claim, the court ordered Wawanesa to pay $110,968 for property loss and $50,000 in damages.

Three Metro Vancouver parks have made a list of Canada’s most trash-infested shorelines, including two near the Surrey Delta border. Kanaka Creek Regional Park in Maple Ridge was secondworst in the nation, according to organizers of the Great Canadian Shoreline Cleanup. The fourth most littered shoreline was Tom Hopkins Ravine Park in Delta (11693 - 98 Ave.), followed by fifth-place
Brownsville Bar Park along the Fraser River in Surrey (11931 Old Yale Rd). The rankings were based on the amount of garbage collected during last year’s annual shoreline cleanup. Volunteers collected 5,000 kilograms of garbage per kilometre at the worst-ranked site, a creek in Sydenham Ontario. Kanaka Creek yielded 3,200 kilograms per kilometre, while Brownsville Bar yielded 1,200. “The amount of litter that

Surrey has developed a heated and enclosed picnic shelter so people can gather year-round, no matter what the weather conditions. A group that regularly gathers at North Surrey Community Park for card playing met with the city’s parks committee and asked for the improved shelters. The prototype, which was
designed and built for $50,000, was completed last week and has been put at North Surrey Community Park, in the 15800block 97A Avenue. The structure will be tested for about a year, then it’s believed competitive bidding can bring additional shelters at about $35,000 to $40,000 apiece. The shelters lock at night to keep vandals out and the walls are made of a clear, scratch-

Crystal Debruyn wins award for supporting role in independent feature
Film new territory for Peninsula actress Alex Browne
T
Arts Reporter
he planets are beginning to align for Crystal Debruyn. The Earl Marriott grad – and former Miss Peace Arch News in the 2003 White Rock Youth Ambassadors program – is already attracting international attention for her role in the B.C.-produced independent feature Neutral Territory. Last weekend, Debruyn was named best supporting actress, while co-star Laura McCarthy received best actress honours, at the World Music and Independent Film Festival in Washington, D.C. It’s odd, the budding film and stage actress notes, in that Neutral Territory was virtually her first film role of any kind – aside from a few short student projects. Even more unexpected is the fact that she’s only now reaping the rewards for a three-week shoot that wrapped two years ago, in 2009. “It took a while to get the film edited and ready to enter film festivals, but when it did it was like a rocket,” she said. “We’ve been in so many film festivals this year. After a couple of years of not seeing anything, it’s like ka-boom.

arts & entertainment Fibre and textile art festival aims to transcend boundaries
Breaking out of the box Alex Browne Arts Reporter
The Semiahmoo Peninsula is going to be stepping ‘Outside The Box’ starting next month – and the only question is how it will ever get back inside again. A seven-week celebration of fibre and textile art, Outside The Box – spearheaded by internationally recognized artist and White Rock resident Pauline McLean Dutkowski – is highlighting an idiom often overlooked by those more focused on painting and sculpture. But, even more importantly, the revolutionary festival, which runs Sept. 1 to Oct. 21, is breaking down many of the boundaries that separate artistic disciplines and create a schism between arts and business – and Don Dutkowski photo completely ignoring the artificial border between White Rock and Outside the Box organizer and artist Pauline McLean Dutkowski with some of her fibrescapes at her White Rock home.

Semiahmoo grad Liam Murphy-Burke scores tournament-winning try
B.C. rugby players strike gold in Alberta Tricia Leslie Black Press
All four British Columbia age-grade rugby teams medaled at the 2011 National Festival Sunday, with the Men’s Under-18 team and Men’s Under-16 team crowned national champs. The BC Women’s Under-18 team captured silver and the U16 BC-2 Men’s team took home bronze. “It was really good. The boys all played really well and it was a great team effort,” B.C. head coach Jeff Williams said. The most heated rivalry in Canadian rugby took centre stage on Sunday afternoon in the Men’s U18National Final, with reigning champs Ontario taking on B.C. The highly anticipated championship final lived up to expectations with B.C. winger and Semiahmoo Secondary grad Liam Murphy-Burke (Bayside RFC) scoring the game-winning intercept try to lift B.C. to a 38-33 victory. “That game may have been great for the fans, but the coaching staff were on the sidelines close to having heart attacks,” said a relieved Williams. “That is how finals should be, with both sides putting everything into it and the game going right until the end.” In a match that saw the lead change hands on several occasions, Ontario drew first blood to go up 5-0 when their BC Rugby photo prop Curtis Lawson barrelled over Liam Murphy-Burke, who plays for the Bayside Sharks on the Peninsula, runs the game-winning try for Team B.C. at nationals last weekend. for a try.

Carol Adams competes at BC Seniors Games.
Tricia Leslie Black Press
Several local seniors were behind the ball in Trail last weekend. The bocce ball, that is. Seven senior athletes – including four from South Surrey and two from White Rock – travelled to the Interior to participate in the BC Senior Games, which were held in Trail, Castlegar and Nelson. “It was great – just a great experience for everyone,� said Audrey Bragagnolo, whose husband was among the competitors. “Everyone enjoyed the competition. Everyone was in high spirits. “All the organizers, all the volunteers – it couldn’t have gone better.� And the competition
went well, too. “In every category the competition was challenging but friendly,â€? Bragagnolo said. She noted that competing in bocce is quite different from casual play in the park or at the beach. “There’s quite a few rules‌ it’s actually quite complicated.â€? Still, five of the seven athletes garnered medals: gold in Men’s Pairs (Zeff Baldonero and Lino Bragagnolo); silver in Women’s Pairs (Carol Adams and Arnalda Benetti) and bronze in Women’s Singles (Maria d’Astolfo). “It’s quite an accomplishment. They’re all good players and should all be proud,â€? Bragagnolo said.

It’s not the days we remember, it’s the moments.
Remember those rare and special days at the cottage? It was non-stop fun from the moment you hit the beach. Jumping off the raft in the hot summer sun. Sitting under the stars by the campfire roasting marshmallows with your family and friends. Now you can relive those cherished memories. Tucked away in the forest and nestled along the southern shores of Lake Whatcom...there is a rare and coveted jewel...Wildwood. A limited collection of 20 charming lakefront cottages are now available to purchase. Distressed wood floors, large sunny windows, spacious covered patios, cozy indoor AND outdoor fireplaces. Tons of family activities from tennis to horseshoes to an organic herb garden, and the on-site cottage manager makes ownership worry-free. Wildwood is only 45 minutes from any US border crossing, and just south of Bellingham. The magic, the memories and your family’s legacy await.

OBITUARIES Barnet, John Robert June 14, 1942-August 6, 2011
“When you were good, you were the best we had.” - The Wire The inimitable John is remembered by his wife Pat, his daughters Megan (with Wendy) and Alexandra (with Pat), sisters Ann, Katherine, Elizabeth, and Jane, a loving extended family, countless friends and co-workers, and the many students he taught during his lifetime. Join us in celebrating John’s life on Saturday, August 27th from 2-5pm. This will be a gathering full of wine, food, and (bawdy) anecdotes-the most fitting way to appreciate a man who was loved and respected by many; there will be a toast to John from 3-4pm. Contact: mbarnet@gmail.com for more details. Donations in memory of John can be given to Doctors Without Borders or the Surrey Memorial Hospital Foundation.

Canadian Tire As the Peninsula’s most trusted one-stop shop for more than 10 years, Canadian Tire at South Point Exchange continues to build a reputation for great customer service, outstanding deals and a huge selection of items for your home, garden and more. If you haven’t visited the South Surrey location recently, you’ll want to swing by and check out their recent renovations and expansions. Dan Higgins The store now carries a full line of major appliances – such as fridges, stoves, washers and dryers – in a range of models and price points and their popular camping department has been largely expanded to meet the needs of the community’s ever-growing population. The sports department has also grown – especially the range of hockey equipment and apparel. Information kiosks are now set up throughout the store, where customers can have access to the Internet to reference merchandise online – another feature that makes shopping at Canadian Tire South Point easy and enjoyable. Over in the automotive department, check out the huge tire selection – including many more National brands than were carried previously – it’s never too early to start thinking about winter tires! And of course the end of summer means back to school is just around the corner, and Canadian Tire is the perfect one-stop-shop for everything you’ll need before your kids hit the classrooms. They carry a full range of school supplies, plus you can find book shelves, computer desks and chairs and other furniture to help create the perfect workspace in your home. Though part of a well-known nation-wide chain, South Point Canadian Tire is heavily involved in the White Rock/South Surrey community and dedicated to making a difference whenever possible. “We have a passion for where we live and do business,” owner Dan Higgins said. “Giving back to the community is important, and great customer service is a part of that approach. Canadian Tire takes pride in its Jumpstart program – a community-based charity that helps kids aged 4-18 participate in organized sports and recreation such as hockey, dance, soccer and swimming, so they can develop important life skills, self esteem and confidence.. They’ve also partnered with a variety of other organizations on fundraising endeavours. For everything you need under one roof, visit the newly renovated Canadian Tire at South Point Exchange today.
28 Anniversary th
“It has been our pleasure to serve the residents of Surrey/White Rock for the past 28 years. Service is the key to our success. We value your patronage in the past, and look forward to helping you in the future. Remember... there's no substitute for experience!” DAVID J. HOWIE, BC-HIP

Check Point Plumbing With a commitment to customer satisfaction and nearly 100 years of combined industry experience, Check Point Plumbing is proud to offer top-notch, knowledgeable service you can count on. Whether it’s a clogged sink, a leaky hot water tank or a gas fireplace on the fritz, the team at Check Point Plumbing will Beth, Dave, Rich & Kent get the job done quickly and accurately, according to co-owner Beth Henderson. “We do the job right the first time and ensure that the customer is satisfied,” Henderson said. “We’re very proud of the work we do.” With winter just a few months away, this is the time of year many homeowners think about replacing their old, inefficient furnace with a newer and more efficient model. In some respects, today’s high-efficiency furnaces, which generally start around $4,000, are better engineered than the $30,000 car you drive off the lot. With up to 95 per cent efficiency, more heat goes into your home than up the chimney with older models. Redesigned heat exchangers – complete with recovery coils – better insulation with state-of-the-art controls and energy-efficient blower motors, some with four speeds and quiet as a whisper, all provide long-lasting comfort. High and low-fire gas valves combined with variable speed blowers provide the perfect amount of heat required – for warmer days, the gas valve fires on low mode and the blower cuts in on low speed; for cold days, both the gas valve and the blower operate on high to bring your home up to a set temperature, where it will stay comfortably. Also important is a good digital thermostat to replace the old mechanical style you may still have. The friendly folks at Check Point Plumbing would be more than happy to visit your home to check out your existing unit and make some recommendations. Don’t forget, federal EcoEnergy grants are still available as an incentive to make your home more energy efficient – call Check Point today to find out more about this program and all other services they provide. With an emphasis no providing great customer service and competitive pricing, Check Point Plumbing is your best choice for all your plumbing, heating and gas fitting needs.

Stylish & Fun for Work or Play!
Turnabout Since expanding from their Johnston Road location earlier this year to a store three times larger at Peninsula Village, Turnabout has quickly grown to become a hit for fashion lovers looking to refresh their wardrobe in a fun and socially-conscious way. The upscale consignment boutique is perfect for those who want to easily convert once-loved pieces into cash – from casual jeans to elegant ball gowns, one-of-a-kind Jill and Connie jewelry to designer handbags, the knowledgeable and friendly team at Turnabout considers it all. It’s also a method of shopping that those with concerns about the environment can feel good about – keeping clothes out of the landÀll and putting them into a new owner’s closet through a process that’s fun and rewarding. Their men’s department – which carries quality suits, ties, shoes and more – is also continuing to grow, according to Turnabout owner and fashion-lover Joy Mauro. “Our new South Surrey location is a hit, and we’re seeing lots of new consignors and customers,” Joy says, noting the environmentally friendly side to consignment fashions is a huge factor in her store’s growing popularity. “Our men’s division is also growing steadily.” It’s been more than 33 years since Joy Àrst decided to pursue her passion for fashion, when she opened her Àrst location on South Granville in 1978. That store – along with a second location on West Broadway in Kitsilano – quickly became one of the city’s top destination for consignors and treasure-hunters alike. Turnabout at Peninsula Village is a stylish, well-organized 3,600 square-foot shop – where Joy and her staff are able to share their knowledge, passion and outstanding customer service with a whole new market. “Our clients shop the world,” Joy says. “We pride ourselves on selecting popular, highend and import labels that are almost brand new. Most of our pieces are generally not more than two seasons old.” Connie Patjas, Turnabout general manager, is pleased to welcome Jill Fullan to the Turnabout team. Jill has an extensive retail background and will act as Retail Manager for all three locations. With an exciting season of fall fashion just around the corner, now’s the time to do an overhaul on your closet and weed out some pieces that you’re ready to part from – including purses and jewelry, which Joy says are in high demand. Call Turnabout at 604-536-2827 today for an appointment to set up your consignor’s account. After that, you can drop off pieces at your convenience, seven days a week.

Gold Key Volkswagen With a commitment to putting the customer first, a state of the art showroom and top-of-the line automotive services, it’s no wonder GoldKey Volkswagen has earned a reputation as being the best bet for VW automotive services on the Peninsula. It has also earned them the title as #1 in Volkswagen customer service in the province for the past four years running, in addition to being the only Peter Saieva B.C. dealership to win the Wolfcrest Award – a national honour recognizing best all around dealerships – two years in a row (2009/2010). While GoldKey’s stellar customer service record sets them apart from the competition, operations manager Peter Saieva said the staff and management take great pride in providing nothing but the best for their customers. “Even though we have doubled in size over the past three years, we don’t treat people like numbers, he said. “We try and make sure everyone’s experience at our dealership is the best it can be.” GoldKey strives to ensure every customer leaves with a smile on their face – and one way they do that is by offering competitive pricing for maintenance and repairs in their state-of-the-art facility at 2092 152 St., something a lot of people don’t think is possible at a dealer service centre. “Most people think dealers are expensive to maintain their Volkswagens,” Peter said. “A lot of our customers are finding out that we’re not.” In addition to providing efficient and quality vehicle care from factory-trained technicians, GoldKey also keeps a large inventory or manufacturer-recommended parts in stock, which can be easily ordered on their website. Offering fair prices and top-quality service to their customers is just one way GoldKey is unique in the industry – a commitment to supporting the White Rock / South Surrey community is another aspect that sets them apart. And the support goes both ways – after 11 years of loyalty from local Volkswagen customers, Peter and the staff GoldKey Volkswagen would like to express their gratitude for being able to work in such a great community. “We have the best Volkswagen customers in B.C.,” Peter said. “We wouldn’t be here today if it wasn’t for them. We would like to thank them for their support and for making us number one.” This year the GoldKey team is looking forward to the arrival of the new 2012 Passat. The new Passat is now coming in a TDI model, some models are also coming equipped with the Fender Sound system, see dealer for details. Also to arrive this fall will be the All New Beetle!!

Extreme Clothing Looking for the hottest back-to-school fashions from the most popular brand names in skate, surf and snowboard apparel? Look no further than Extreme Clothing at Grandview Corners. Since opening its doors two years ago, Extreme has become a popular hot spot for fashion and accessories that appeal to laid-back trend setting men, women and youth, the store carries a large Chris & Erin Davidson selection of hoodies, t-shirts, jackets, jeans and shoes. While it may be tough to think about summer coming to an end, September is just around the corner, meaning plenty of great fall fashions have arrived at Extreme. This year is expected to be all about sweaters, sweaters and more sweaters – everything from cardigans to Cowichan sweaters for both men and women. Can’t bear the thought of parting with your favourite summer dress? No problem – simply layer up your dress with a cozy cardigan for the best early fall trend! Staple fleece is always a must-have throughout fall and winter month – this season, keep an eye out for pieces from RDS and Element for both the guys and girls. Simple, basics in bright colours, with lots of emphasis on pullovers this season as well. The military look is expected to be popular yet again this fall, with a focus on washed out pale/neutral colours. And back to school isn’t back to school without new denim – check out Extreme’s great selection of brand name men’s and women’s jeans. When it comes to accessories, a great backpack is a must-have this time of year – especially with a laptop sleeve, which is key for the most up-to-date teens heading back into the classroom. This fall’s key handbag is the concert bag – a teeny, tiny tote worn cross-body for a night out or simple day purse. In addition to a large selection of the latest brand names and fashions, it’s the store’s customer service that makes Extreme Clothing a favourite shopping destination. The owners and staff are thrilled for the opportunity to be a part of the small business community in the town they live in, and their love for what they do is evident in their commitment to helping others find that perfect outfit. Keep a close eye on Extreme Clothing as we get closer to back to school time – weekly fall promotions, including two Tees for $29 – will be popping up in weeks to come, and are definitely not to be missed!

The name means ‘on the beach,’ and that’s exactly where you’ll find one of White Rock’s newest fashion hot spots, A La Plage Boutique. Since opening at 14877 Marine Dr. earlier this year, boutique owner Nora Reilly has Nora Reilly been working hard getting to know her wide range of customers – from Peninsula locals to visiting tourists – and spending lots of time finding out their fashion desires. As a result, Nora aims to carry a variety of lines that will appeal to a range of customers seeking out the latest in clothes, shoes, jewelry, handbags and more. “We’re hoping to offer a little bit of everything – something for every age group,” Nora explains.
Keep an eye out for our new Fall lines!
With a background in childcare – as well as experience running an ice cream shop – this is Nora’s first foray into the fashion industry, and she says she’s been enjoying the experience tremendously so far. “It’s been great meeting all the new people who come in, and listening to what the customers would like to see in the store,” she says. “We’re looking forward to building our business up over the next year.” Currently, A La Plage carries a variety of lines, inkling Tribal, Jag, Orly and Pretty Woman, to name a few. In the fall, Nora is thrilled to be introducing French Dressing Jeans, due in store in October. While the fall fashions are expected to be as diverse as her client base, Nora says that purples and teals will likely be big colours this season, and, of course, sweaters, shrugs and jackets will be a hit once the temperature starts to cool. For the latest in fun fashions that truly cater to what the customer wants, visit A La Plage Boutique on Marine Drive.

Thanks to their excellent service and devotion to the Fastpitch, Baseball, Slo-pitch and Cricket communities throughout the local areas and across the province, Ball Park Sports has been â&#x20AC;&#x153;hitting the ball out of the parkâ&#x20AC;? since it opened for business in September 2009.

Providing a lengthy list of products from such manufacturers as Demarini, Wilson, Glovesmith, Phiten, Mattingly, Baden, Firstar, Majestic and New Era, plus a variety of promotional and corporate gifts, has been keeping the team at Ball Park Sports very busy.

We welcome others to join in too.â&#x20AC;?
