Students keep summer vacations march

The local school calendar has been set for the next three years. by Heather Colpitts hcolpitts@langleyadvance.com

Langley’s public school students get to keep their summer vacations. After a couple months of consultation, meetings, and questions, Langley’s school board voted to keep the traditional calendar for at least the next three school years. Langley was among the first to bite after the provincial government amended laws, allowing districts to set their own calendars. Langley’s appears to be the most comprehensive examination so far, giving some the impression that there was a “pre-determined decision,” but superintendent Suzanne Hoffman said that was not the case. Trustee Candy Ashdown said the community didn’t feel respected in recent years, and this calendar process brought out some underlying distrust. The district and the board have a lot of work to regain trust, she noted. “[The extensive consultation] represents a departure from the arrogance of the past,” said Tr. Megan Dykeman. She said the views of the community need to be obtained often, and not only every three years at the ballot box. Tr. Alison McVeigh said the discussions

Fort Langley

Police still searching for firebug

Someone knows the identity of the Fort IGA arsonist, the Langley RCMP believe. by Matthew Claxton

mclaxton@langleyadvance.com

Langley RCMP are hoping that someone in the community knows who started the fire that destroyed a Fort Langley grocery store more than two years ago. The Jan. 4 fire reduced the Fort IGA to a pile of charred rubble. The Lee family, who had run the store for decades, rebuilt and re-opened the Lee’s Market store last December. Since fire investigators and police began going through the wreckage of the old store, they have believed the fire was human-caused. Broken glass and severed

metal bars were found on the north side of the structure, said Cpl. Holly Marks of the Langley RCMP. Someone was apparently trying to break into the store and was cutting through the bars. Sparks from a saw, or a cutting torch, seem to have ignited the fire. Investigators are hoping someone has talked in the intervening two years, and that a member of the public knows who was trying to break in that night. “Police are hopeful there has been ‘scuttlebutt’ over the last two years and the arsonist may now be identified,” said Marks. The investigation into the fire is still active, but it needs public input to move forward, Marks said. “It’s an active investigation, but we need tips,” she said. Anyone who may have a

Chamber lays out case for extra voting

Business owners want to be able to vote, even in municipalities where they work but don’t live. by Matthew Claxton

mclaxton@langleyadvance.com

Chambers of commerce across B.C. are ramping up their efforts to get a separate right to vote for businesses in municipal elections. On Monday, Greater Langley Chamber of Commerce president Angie Quaale asked the Township council to support the business vote at the upcoming meeting of Lower Mainland municipalities. Quaale said businesses pay property taxes, at a higher rate than homeowners, and have to pay for their own garbage collection, recycling, and other services. She dubbed it “taxation without representation.” Quaale and the other chambers in the region are asking for support at the Lower Mainland Local Government Association meeting, which often asks the province for changes in legislation. The LMLGA is having its annual general meeting from May 8-10 in Harrison Hot Springs this year. “At this point, we’re looking to get the issue on the radar screen,” said Jon Garson, vice president of policy for the B.C. Chamber of Commerce.

Garson said that groups like the B.C. Chamber and the Canadian Federation of Independent Businesses have been working on the issue for some time. While they don’t have a full policy laid out, they have come up with an outline that they hope answers many of the questions about how such a system could function. Garson said the obvious issue is to avoid having people take out business licenses – attached to a post office box or storage locker – and then rack up an extra vote without actually doing anything. The proposal is to cross reference businesses registered with the provincial govern-

ment, with municipal registries of companies paying business-level property taxes. Essentially, those businesses that meet both criteria and have local ownership would be eligible for a vote, said Garson. Garson answered a number of other questions about how such a system might work: • How would a business with multiple owners vote? Garson said that as there would be one vote per business, each ownership group would designate a particular person as its “voter.” That person would go to the polls and cast the ballot for the business.

Relay for Life

Firefighters fight cancer Firefighters are joining the Relay for Life, which will take place early this summer. by Matthew Claxton

mclaxton@langleyadvance.com

The Langley Relay for Life took its campaign to find more teams out to the Otter Co-op this week, where firefighters and others registered to raise money to fight cancer. Township firefighter Colin Gaetan was there to sign up as a team captain, along with several of his co-workers. The firefighters don their formal uniforms to walk in the opening ceremonies at the annual fundraiser, and make pancakes for the relayers as the 12-hour event wraps up at dawn. The fire department has also fielded a team, who raise money and do the walking around the track at the McLeod

Athletic Park. The non-competitive event usually draws dozens of teams every year. This year it will be held on Friday evening, June 21, running into the following morning, from 7 p.m. to 7 a.m. “It’s a pretty easy one to get guys out to,” Gaetan said. Everyone’s family has been affected by cancer. The event at the Otter Co-op last Sunday saw visits by the Otter Trotters, one of the many company-based teams that have been participating in Relay for the last decade. A new team is expected to sign up for the first time this week, with the Langley Board of Education forming its own team. Students at several high schools, notably Brookswood, Walnut Grove, and D.W. Poppy have also signed up in the past. Brookswood has signed up at least nine full teams this year. More information can be found at www.relaybc.ca.

Missing

Man vanished on trip to the store

An Aldergrove man hasn’t been seen since the spring of 2001, and police are still searching. by Matthew Claxton mclaxton@langleyadvance.com

A young Aldergrove man vanished without a trace a dozen years ago, and the Langley RCMP are again hoping that someone knows what happened to him. Scott Anthony Devuyst was 24 years old in 2001, said Cpl. Holly Marks, spokesperson for the Langley RCMP. On March 13 of that year, at about 11:30 p.m., he left his home in the 5800 block of 248th Street, saying he was going to a local corner store and would be back in five minutes. He never returned. Devuyst was known to use drugs, and could have run into trouble related to that, Marks said. He may also have willingly gone miss-

ing and simply be living elsewhere without contacting his family. When last seen, Devuyst was 6’0” and weighed 160 pounds, had blonde hair and green eyes, and a scar above his left eyebrow. He was wearing black and white Adidas shoes, a black Umbro toque, green cargo pants and a grey jacket. Investigators with the Langley RCMP are still in touch with Devuyst’s family, and they simply want to know what happened to him. “Throughout the years, police have received little to no information to assist with this investigation,” said Marks. “Langley Serious Crime investigators are hopeful we will soon know the truth regarding what happened to Scott so we can give the family closure.” Anyone with information on what happened to Devuyst can call the Langley RCMP at 604-532-3200, or CrimeStoppers at 1-800-222-8477 (TIPS). Calls to CrimeStoppers, or messages left at www. solvecrime.ca or on the CrimeStoppers Facebook page, are anonymous.

Vote plan for local businesses …continued from page A3

• What if that person casts a ballot against the wishes of the other owners, casting a ballot for Candidate Jones when all the other owners prefer Candidate Smith? Garson said there is no way to prevent that, due to the privacy of the voting booth and the secret ballot, but he believes it wouldn’t come up too often. • Could a business owned partially by non-Canadians vote? Garson says yes, as long as there’s some Canadian citizen who could be a proxy and do the actual voting for them. • Would a franchisee be able to vote? Yes, Garson said. A store or restaurant with a local franchise owner would get a vote, but an outlet that was simply a branch of a larger corporation, with locally hired managers, would not get a vote. • Could home-based businesses cast ballots? The intent is not to allow for that,

as they don’t often pay businesslevel property taxes. • Would farms get a business vote? Likely yes, Garson said. • Would a union office get a business vote? Garson wasn’t sure, as they do most of the things that the Lower Mainland chambers have raised as issues – renting space, paying taxes on it, hiring workers – but they may not have a traditional business license. The project is aimed largely at local independent businesses, he said. The old business vote system had a lot of flaws, Garson admitted. There were no checks on whether businesses were doing real work or simply existed on paper. He believes the new plan, although theoretical, could work. “We wouldn’t expect there would be any constitutional challenge to the issue of a business vote,” said Garson.

Township council

Advocates seek child care help The Township was asked to endorse subsidized daycare across B.C. by Matthew Claxton

mclaxton@langleyadvance.com

Advocates of publicly subsidized childcare called on Langley Township council to support a revamp of the province’s daycare polices. Sharon Gregson of the Coalition of Child Care Advocates of B.C. is putting forward a plan for integrated childcare. The key is to create a universal system that would cost a maximum of $10 a day, with no fees for families making less than $40,000. High costs and a lack of spaces are the key concerns

the group wants to address with their plan, said Gregson. “It’s a bigger, provincial issue and it needs provincial leadership,” she said. Making childcare cheaper will allow more people, especially women, to enter the workforce, generating economic growth and tax revenues, said Gregson. The coalition wants the childcare system to be moved out of the province’s Ministry of Children and Family Development and into the Ministry of Education. Budgets for local childcare would be administered by boards of education. That idea resulted in questions for Gregson from Councillor Charlie Fox, a former high school principal. Fox wanted to know if

principals would have to take over organizing daycare, as well as elementary and high school students, and if schools would have to suddenly integrate pre-school kids in daycares. Gregson said principals, already with many duties, won’t have to take over the job. In some cases, where schools are partly empty, daycares could be integrated into the buildings, making better use of the space. However, in places like Langley, where many schools are already overcrowded, that obviously wouldn’t work, said Gregson: “We need to be creative about how we currently use public space, but also to recognize we need to build new childcare spaces out in the community.”

Thoughtless gifts costly

If you are going to shoot poison darts at the enemy, make sure they don’t fit your intended victim’s blowgun. With the provincial election not much more than a heartbeat-and-a-half away, most of the smart money is saying that B.C.’s New Democrats have the ruling BC Liberals on the ropes. There’s the old, festering wound of the HST which will finally be bandaged (but far from healed) on April 1. That’s only a couple of weeks before the election writ is dropped. The current ethnic apolEmail with ogy scandal has its tentacles throughout the premier’s office, twitching uncomfortably close to Christy Clark’s own desk. With a couple of resignations already in hand, in-house investigators will allegedly get to the bottom of it all, but realistically, most folks who don’t consider themselves “ethnic” won’t be significantly swayed by something they feel doesn’t affect them directly. The same scandal includes elements that will resonate at election time, however: the elements that affect our pocketbooks. Diversion of tax dollars into partisan political endeavours is not taken lightly by voters, especially the more conservative types who are most likely to support the political right… like Clark and her BC Liberals. The NDP has been not-so-subtly harping on that issue, pointing not only to the ethnic debacle, but the government’s controversial $15-million advertising campaign that veritably stinks of partisan politics. But now the apparent leak of a draft report from the Auditor General’s office, reported by the Victoria Times-Colonist, suggests the NDP have been diverting constituency funding – our tax dollars – into a campaign slush fund. At about $200 per month per constituency office, totalling a bit more than $460,000, the diversions don’t amount to a very large gift to themselves. But when voters go to the polls, it might just be the thought that counts. – B.G.

Odd Thoughts

Bullying can be found everywhere

Dear Editor, Reading your words about bullying, when and where it occurs, and who are the antagonists and their victims, really struck a cord with me [And the award for bullying…, Feb. 26 Odd Thoughts, Langley Advance]. A day or two later, I read of a “symposium” for plussize women: “The event targets plus-sized women and hopes to provide them with the tools to improve their lives and fight bullying.” Bullying comes in many forms, but two main forms

are direct and indirect, the latter being discrimination. Enter an emporium of “haute couture” and observe the eyes rapidly scanning incoming targets, ergo customers. Just try it if you have not already. Would you go there to buy a gift for your wife, dressed in scrubby-looking jeans, dispersing a turned earth odour, direct from digging in fresh cow manure? Of course not, it should be well composted – every gardener worth his soil knows that, but I digress to my

Aldergrove

Pay money for proper pool

Dear Editor, The citizens of Aldergrove have spoken loud and clear about what type of pool they want to see in our new recreation facility. We were asked our opinion at Township open houses, and also through surveys conducted by the Aldergrove Recreation and Pool Society. The results are clear. Aldergrove wants a 50-metre, eightlane pool with a deep end. The depth is important. While the existing plans show a five-foot-deep pool (yes, you read that correctly), that will be inadequate. Without a proper deep end, Aldergrove will not be able to offer complete swim lessons, as levels 3-10 require deep water. We will still have to go to another pool so our children can complete swim lessons! Teens say they will not use the pool if they cannot dive or jump into the deep end, use a rope swing, etc. This pool will help keep the teens off the streets, if it is done right. An eight-lane pool will enable several different groups to use the pool at the same time, for example: lane swimming and water aerobics. Eight lanes are required to host a provincial swim meet – they will not host in a six-lane pool. Just think of the extra revenue that will benefit our local businesses when we host a provincial meet. We are spending the money, so let’s do it right. Julie Redlin, Aldergrove

Township

Film sector gets closeup

The film industry could see tweaked rules for setting up shop here.

Val Gafka met local residents at a recent forum on filming rules in Langley Township.

A two-day forum on filming in Langley Township wrapped up last Thursday, with more than two dozen people dropping by to check out new proposed rules for film crews. A series of new planned changes to regulations are intended to help both the industry and local residents. Val Gafka, who oversees filming permits for Langley Township, said residents typically had concerns about traffic, including parking, and noise related to productions. The average number of complaints about film productions has hovered at around 19, and it was 19 in 2012, Gafka said. “They’re largely parking and traffic related,” she said. Residents complain when they get a sudden influx of crew vehicles, either heading up and down their residential roads, or parked along the

sides of their streets. The rural areas of the Township remain popular filming destinations, according to recent statistics. In 2012, the South East sector of Langley Township, outside Aldergrove, had the most filming days, at 118. It was followed by 97 in Aldergrove, and 91 in Fort Langley. “Aldergrove is becoming quite popular,” she noted, with projects like the Million Dollar Neighbourhood shooting there. The number of shooting days can go up and down wildly in various neighbourhoods. In 2011, Willoughby was in the top five, but in 2012 it saw just three days of filming. One of the changes pro-

posed is a rule requiring a film permit even for productions confined entirely to private property, said Gafka. That’s largely for safety reasons. Firefighters responding to a fire in a barn might think there is nothing but livestock inside, when there could be a small film crew. Permits will allow Township staff and emergency responders to know what’s going on at various film sites. There is also a student film clause, for both high school and college level filmmakers. They’ll still have to fill out the forms, but fees will be waived, Gafka said. Township rules and fees for filming hadn’t been reviewed since 2007, a major reasons they’re being looked at now.

Be Wild Animal Aware

The Township of Langley is full of wildlife habitat, and residents share the area with animals including bears, cougars, and coyotes. While residents throughout Langley do not need to be continually on alert, there are a number of actions that can be taken to deter wild animals if they are spotted in your area. Parents are encouraged to educate their children on what to do if they encounter any of these animals, especially if they play by themselves in areas that wildlife frequent or have been seen in the past. To help people coexist with creatures that are simply trying to survive but can be dangerous if provoked, the following information is offered:

Bears: are coming out of three or four months of hibernation this time of year. They are extremely hungry, have lost weight, and are looking for a lot of food. They also have cubs, which the mothers will teach how to hunt and look for food. Baby bears learn from their mothers’ behavior and they are smart animals: don’t let them learn that food can easily be obtained from humans.

If you encounter a bear, do not run. Act big and loud, and back away slowly to a safe place.

Cougars: can have kittens throughout the year, and family groups can

be seen at any time. Cougars and bobcats have been seen in Langley over the past couple of months. They survive on natural food sources found in the wild, primarily deer.

Cougar attacks on humans are highly unlikely. However, if you encounter a cougar, do not run. Pick children up immediately and talk to the cougar in a confident voice. Act big by waving sticks and branches, and back away slowly while still facing the cougar. If it attacks, fight back.

Coyotes: have the largest population of potentially dangerous wildlife in Langley and can be seen year round, even in residential areas. Pups are born in the spring and are trained to hunt and kill. Coyotes are bold and easily lose their natural fear of people. Never feed a coyote. If you encounter a coyote, scare it off by making loud noise or throwing something at it to make it afraid. Never ignore a coyote. If it continues to approach, do not run. Maintain eye contact, pick up small pets or children, and slowly move to an area of increased activity.

In Residential Areas: Reduce the smell of food by keeping barbecues clean. Keep pet food inside. Garbage is the biggest attraction for bears so keep it secure and inaccessible to wildlife. Do not leave garbage cans out overnight: keep them in the house, a locked garage, or secured outbuilding that cannot be broken into by large, smart bears. Put them out only on the morning of collection. If you are worried about odour, keep garbage in the freezer until collection day.

USE CAUTION ON ROADS

Do not use bird feeders, as they attract bears and the birds do need seeds when other natural food sources are available. Be vigilant with small animals, especially cats, in areas where coyotes are around.

In Agricultural Areas: Protect your investment by keeping fences secure and free of damage that predators can use for access. Coyotes burrow, so ensure surrounding netting goes deep into the ground. Use electric fencing to deter bears from blueberries and beehives, and pick berries and fruit as they ripen. Be vigilant with livestock and keep them secure. Farm animals are usually killed at night, so bring them inside in the evening. It is an offence to attract wildlife into a residential neighbourhood. Those who do not take steps to deter bears and other wild creatures can face a fine of up to $575. To report poachers or polluters or if you have a problem with wildlife call: Report All Poachers and Polluters (RAPP) 1.877.952.7277

Golf holiday-turned-marathon supports foundation Four golfers made the most of their trip to Las Vegas by raising funds for the BC Hospitality Foundation.

Four amateur golfers decided to make a difference with their vacation time. The BC Hospitality Foundation Tip Out To Help Campaign intrigued them. And the volunteer board members inspired them. Langley’s Mike Bryant, Jim Kennedy, Steve Zenone, and Lyall May turned their golf holiday into a golf marathon, and invited people to “tip” them for every hole of golf they played. They decided that the week-long getaway could turn into 1,100 holes of golf, maybe a few more, if they started at daybreak each day, and played a second round every afternoon, every day, for nine days March 2 to 10. Versacold Transportation, Annacis Island, where Zenone and Kennedy work, got involved vicariously with the golf marathon. It started with the office staff, where everyone reached into their pockets and tipped a couple pennies a hole ($20 or so).

That penny or two a hole raised over $500. Versacold Corporate heard about the marathon. Glen Slobodian and Bob Lewarne said “1,100 holes of golf! In a week? That is more golf than we played all last year.” Versacold CEO Joel Smith agreed. Versacold head office pledged a dollar a hole to the tune of $1,100. Next, Versacold Derwent Transport pledged 20 cents a hole. Not to be outdone, Versacold Derwent Warehouse pledged 20 cents a hole. And, all of a sudden, a penny became two hundred thousand pennies, or more than $2,000 in tips. BC Hospitality Foundation chair Bing Smith inspired the golf marathon with his own Tip Out To Help campaign last fall. Smith golfed 72 holes in one day, raising over $2,000 on his own. For this golf marathon, Smith tipped the GoGolf 4 BCHF foursome $110, a dime a hole, and said “These guys give 110 percent for the foundation, [so] $110 seems fitting.” Zenone went on to say “We loved our golf getaway, playing a round a day, the guys hanging out. But now, golfing never felt

The marathon makes the getaway special. The BC Hospitality Foundation helps people we know and work with.” Playing golf, in March, in British Columbia, can be a bit wet and cold. But golfing in Las Vegas, in March, well, the sun and 20 degree Celcius weather makes it a bit easier to get up at 5 a.m. every day, get organized, drive to the golf course, and tee off just after the sun comes up. In the desert, when the sun comes up, it is still a bit cool – about eight to 10 degrees Celcius.

But, that’s okay. Golfers on a mission, to raise money for the BC Hospitality Foundation, will golf in any weather. The foursome paid all expenses themselves, ensuring that every cent raised goes to the foundation. The team used the money saved from the generous golf courses to “tip their own team”, adding another $600 to the pot. Jim Bolla of Par 4 Golf Management hosted the foursome on Primm Valley golf courses, Badlands Golf Club, and Silverstone Golf Club. “This is a good cause, supporting a great charity,” he said. “For

us to ensure the GoGolf 4 BCHF foursome gets the first tee time available, with a re-round in the afternoon, easy decision. When we heard the BC Hospitality Foundation helped a golf course employee, it made hosting the foursome a feel good business decision.” Six other golf courses, including the OB Sports Management courses (Legacy Golf Club, Painted Desert Golf Club, The Chase at Coyote Springs), The Troon Course (Revere Golf Club), Las Vegas Paiute courses, and the TPC course, all helped out – first tee time of the day, and a second round early afternoon. Sixteen rounds of golf in the week – over 2500 swings of the club if you count one practice swing, and if they shoot a decent score. That’s a lot of golf. Supporting this team, and the BC Hospitality Foundation, is easy. Donate online at www. tipouttohelp.com, or call or email. To support the golf marathon, click on the team name – GoGolf 4 BCHF – and pledge or tip any amount. Tax receipts are issued. The 2012 campaign Tip Out to Help Campaign raised more than $100,000. GoGolf 4 BCHF foursome has raised $3,500.

I first started noticing them working in earnest on the Preston dealership. The first thought that came to my mind was, I can’t imagine it will be easy to keep such a large dealership open through such extensive renovations. But now, I just have to mention how stunning that giant glass-front building looks – especially at night. It will be neat to see what the entire site looks like when the construction fences come down. I know the Preston team is preparing for its grand reopening with a private party on the evening of Saturday, March 23, I’ll let you know – as soon as I know – if there’s going to be a public event. And speaking of activity on that corner, in the past week or so signs have been going up on some of the new storefronts in the PowerCentre – on the southeast corner of the same intersection. I see that Roots and Destination Maternity are moving to town, and Danier – which has been operating in the mall kittycorner to the new site – is relocating to the new digs. • Stay tuned for more information, as it comes available.

Time to shred?

I’m always loath to talk too much about nationally proclaimed special days, weeks, or months, because it’s my belief if there’s an event or effort worth noting in the pages of this community newspaper, it shouldn’t matter what time of the year it’s happening. But, that said, I’m going to tell you that it’s National Fraud Prevention Month. And the only reason I share this little tidbit with you is to follow it up with notification Envision Financial is partnering with Iron Mountain and Langley RCMP for a shredding event this month. Naturally, the purpose of shredding is to reduce the chances of identity theft. But this event will also help raise money for the Langley Food Bank. The third annual shredding event is happening on Saturday, March 23, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Envision office on 201st Street and 64th Avenue. Shredding is done by donation (cash or food) to Envision’s new The Full Cupboard program aimed at raising food, funds, and awareness for food banks.

Fishy celebration

Some days, Heather Jenkins will tell you, she has to pinch herself to see if she’s dreaming or if it’s all real. Jenkins is owner of 1 Fish 2 Fish Fresh Seafood Market in downtown Langley City, and she’s been having some of those surreal moments lately. She can’t quite believe that her dream of running her own fish market has not only been a reality for 15 years now – and by the way she’s inviting everyone in the community to help her celebrate that milestone anniversary this weekend with a party – but that she has also been able to grow that business into such a success while staying true to her personal beliefs in and around seafood harvesting. If you haven’t discovered this charming little fish market yet, for shame. Check it out this Saturday, March 16, between 11 a.m. and 2 p.m., at 20534 Fraser Hwy. It’s a great chance to grab some yummy morsels for dinner, partake in some of the festivities, and learn more about what makes this little shop special.

Construction

Bid won for road work

A Langley company has won the contract for $7.9 million of roadworks in nearby South Surrey. Work started on replacing the interchange at 16th Avenue and Highway 99 last week. The groundbreaking took place Thursday for the project, which will total $24 million when finished. Tybo Contracting off Langley has won the contract for the first phase, which includes demolishing the underpass and construction a new six-lane structure, along with widening 16th Avenue to four lanes between 99 and the King George Boulevard. The second phase of work will include the construction of four on- and off-ramps. The entire project is expected to be finished in October next year. The project is intended to accommodate growing cross-border travel, help remove trucks from 32nd Avenue, and reduce traffic congestion at the King George Boulevard and 32nd Avenue interchanges. The South Surrey region will experience significant growth and development in the next 30 years. Highway 99, a key commuter and trucking route to the Canada/ U.S. border, is already strained to handle the current volume of traffic. “This project will dramatically reduce congestion, improve air quality and increase safety for families and motorists,” said Transportation Minister Mary Polak. “Trucks carrying B.C. products to the U.S. will no longer face long delays, resulting in lower pollution levels. People walking or cycling along 16th Avenue will be able to do so safely, encouraging a shift to more active, healthier lifestyles.”

One photojournalist’s unexpected discovery

Langley photographer John Gordon visits local libraries with a series of his shows, his fave is about birds. rhooper@langleyadvance.com

etirement is suiting John Gordon just fine – thank you very much. The Langley photojournalist found himself semi-retired about two years ago, and said the unexpected circumstances have given him time to explore his own community, his province, and even the country of Canada like he’s never been able to before. While working in community newspapers for the past 20 years locally, he frequently escaped on vacation for three weeks a year to exotic locations. And never one to be without his camera, Gordon put together some captivating slideshows and presentations from those excursions, that he has presented publicly in past. He doesn’t regret for a moment taking any of those trips, but he said he’s excited by the new chapter in his life. “I was so tuned out of nature, caught up in the electronic world,” Gordon admitted. Now, he said, his new found freedom is allowing him to explore closer to home, and one of the biggest joys the 59-year-old photographer has uncovered is birding.

While on the treadmill of work, he was introduced on a cursory basis to the Langley Field Naturalists. But about three years ago now, the environmentally conscious Gordon decided to join the organization and discovered what he calls the truly amazing world of birds and the people who watch them. It’s about being outdoors and exercising, it’s about exploring the forests and natural amenities in the Lower Mainland, it’s about meeting “salt-of-the-earth” people who are passionate about the environment, and it’s about discovering the wonderment of the bird world. He’s spent the past 18 months or so

Jewellery for every occasion Zell Goodbaum started an import gift business back in 1972 and once he teamed with goldsmith Vivah Goldberg, found his niche – reasonably priced but impressive jewellery. Vivah’s first location opened in Ontario but has since grown. Goodbaum remains the owner of the 41 stores across Canada. “Vivah is proudly Canadian,” says Haley Wiwcharyk, District Sales Manager. “Zell also does most of the buying for the stores travelling the world picking the most perfect pieces to showcase in our stores.” Vivah Langley started out with a store in Willowbrook Shopping Centre for a few years but demand required a move to a larger site, and it’s now at 20483 Fraser Hwy. Lots of stores offer jewellery and merchandise but Vivah strives to be more. The store offers a wide variety for everyone, all price ranges, all ages and all styles while keeping prices low and offering special promotions and offers to the customers. “The flexible hours allows us to schedule appointments with brides, bridal parties, grads and anyone needing to bring a dress in and

need our one on one time to find that perfect piece of jewellery,” Haley says. The store carries 925 Sterling Silver, Semi Prescious Stones - such as Amber, Turquoise, and Red Coral - Fashion Jewellery such as Shamballa, Pins/Brooches and Bridal/Gala Jewellery for that special occasion. “Our Bridal/Gala collections are some of the best I have ever seen and the very best priced. All our Gala is set in Silver or Gold Plate and set with Austrian Crystals! We Carry many colors to match that perfect dress or give us a challenge and we will try and find the specific color you are needing. “We also carry a wide variety of hair pieces something for all styles and tastes.” She added that all products at Vivah are lead and nickel free. For anyone who loves Jewellery but has reacted to it with itching and swelling, that’s welcome news. So is the current deal – 60% Off Storewide (some exceptions).

Langley’s Aaron Caleb directs the show. Despite the material being set in 1814, the themes still resonate. “Directing a show about a matchmaker in these days of eHarmony and match.com is really fascinating,” said Caleb. “Whatever the century, we all look for love and the events and insights of this story remain startlingly fresh. When you add in Jane Austen’s vivid, charming characters, the result is delight from start to finish.” Even in this day and age where many people find romance online, Emma has a lot to offer the lovelorn.

Grand Re-Opening th 5 1 h c r a M Friday, March 16th Saturday,

t’s always easier to fix up problems in someone else’s life, isn’t it. The humour, pain, flirting, and romance that can come from one playing matchmaker is played out in Jane Austen’s beloved story Emma. The School of Arts Media and Culture at Trinity Western University has decided on a trip back to 1814 for its latest production, Emma. For Emma Woodhouse, she’s jolly good at meddling in the romantic lives of others. Giddy from the success of one match, she’s not about to stop, despite the warnings of longtime family friend Mr. Knightley. So she sets her sights on Harriet Smith, a young woman of moderate social standing in a society that valued one’s place in the social order more than pretty much anything else. Emma’s matchmaking misfires, resulting on both comic and tragic effects. Performances run March 12-23 at 7:30 p.m. with Saturday matinees at 2 p.m. Daniele Neve performs as Emma, a bright and beautiful young woman whose heart is in the right place but whose meddling complicates the lives of those around her. Brandon Bate has the role of the enigmatic Mr. Knightley, who tries to rein in Emma’s overstepping. Emma’s hapless friend Harriet is portrayed by Shelby Wyminga. Two of the more comic roles are by Langley residents. Jane Townsend is in the role of the talkative spinster Miss Bates and said the material remains relevant even today. “I think Jane Austen’s Emma definitely still holds up today. Even though it was written during the 1800s, human nature hasn’t changed,” said Townsend. “People are still quite silly and mostly have no idea what they are doing, especially regarding love. Everyone is still looking for love and yet we, like Emma, still don’t really know what we want or how to find it. I think people still love this story because

Langley’s Jane Townsend and Mark Fleming are in SAMC Theatre’s production of Emma. of how well they can relate to the characters in Emma, especially Emma herself.” The second-year theatre major relishes the chance to get a reaction from the audience. “There is something wonderful about making people laugh, and it is just a whole lot of fun to play comedic characters,” Townsend explained. “I love to laugh and have fun and characters like Miss Bates allow me to do that. Comedic characters give me the freedom to just go for it and be silly and sometimes that is just something I need. I think we all need to laugh and be silly once in a while.” Emma’s hypochondriac father, Henry Woodhouse, is played by fourth year art student Mark Fleming. He was seen on stage in a title role in the school’s production of Romeo + Juliet. “My character in the show, Mr. Woodhouse, Emma’s father, has been one of my few comedic roles and I’ve had an absolute blast with it. That being said, I have always felt more in my niche with a serious, intense role, only ever comedic in his cynicism. But it’s always an asset to bring humour to any character,” Fleming said. Follow

• Visit the Langley Advance website at: www.langleyadvance.com, find “More Ways to Connect,” and click on “send us your letters, photos, video.” • Fill in your name, email, and number. • Then write a short note explaining why you want to attend this show. Please note your community, and include the keyword “Emma” at the top of the note. Preference is given to Langley residents. Entries must be received prior to 5 p.m. on Tuesday, March 19, and winners will be notified. Note: submitted comments could be used in future editions of the newspaper. No staff or family of the Langley Advance or Glacier are eligible. This contest is restricted to online participants, 19 years or older only.

“I think it depends on what you think of as easy,” Fleming said. “Love has always come easier to some and harder to the majority, and in the case of Emma, it could be sitting right under your nose without you realising. As for technology making it simpler, maybe in the way it connects one to many people, but that’s not necessarily a good thing. Having been a matchmaker, and it not going too well, I’d say love is staying a tricky business, technology upgrades or not.”

f I had a dollar for every time I heard someone say that cooking is a chore, I would be a rich man. Cooking a meal is just that: “cooking a meal.” We all need food to stay alive, and as our homes are all equipped with kitchens, we cook. Maybe some of us more than others, but we all still cook. Some kitchens have their owners’ unharnessed culinary passions bestowed upon them on a daily basis, while the only glory days in other kitchens may be derived from someone adding onions and garlic to a saucepan of store-bought pasta sauce… but it is all still cooking. I hate to even imagine that there is a percentage of our population that relies on consuming products like TV dinners, frozen pizzas, and spray can pancake batter. Yes, I did say “spray can pancake batter” – employees of a large grocery chain, tell me they are constantly bombarded with requests from consumers for fast, already-prepared meals to just heat and serve. Is there really a growing number of people who have come to rely on premade meals from packages or containers? Have we lost so much time in our busy lifestyles that we cannot commit to practicing creativity in the one life-nourishing art that our homes have always been designed around? Who made cooking negative anyway? We did, as human beings. Take the simple tasks of washing a vehicle, mowing the lawn, or a daily commute to work. Are these negative tasks that we all are destined to suffer through for the rest of our lives? No, some of us thrive in them. What makes these tasks – and cooking – a chore then? One of the things we do, which no other life form does, is analyze and label. Every thing we do, other than breathe or blink, we analyze and label. We create good and bad, positive and negative with our natural human psyche without even realizing it, for the most part.

On Cooking by Chef Dez

Cooking is just cooking. If it is positive for one and negative for another, it is because each individual has made it so. It is their opinion or perception that makes the act of doing something a joy or a nagging daily occurrence. Don’t get me wrong; people are entitled to their opinions, and if there are people out there who are happy with cooking being a chore, then so be it. What I don’t want is people believing that they don’t have a choice. Of course, you have a choice. You just need to find the way to create a positive frame of mind about the task at hand. So with cooking, in our home, we introduce music and a favourite beverage to the environment, and use it as an enjoyable opportunity to catch up with each other and take pleasure in the family being together. Everyone is unique, however, and what seems to be a simple change of focus to creative optimistic endeavours for one person, may need to be completely different for someone else. What makes you happy? What can you bring into the kitchen environment (mentally or physically) in order to make a more optimistic approach to this life-essential assignment? Whatever it takes for a more positive approach, you will typically save money and eat healthier overall for doing so… and hopefully enjoy yourself, your family, and your kitchen more. Happy cooking!

ll ivies are evergreen. Ivy provides quick, dense cover, but plain green kinds and ones with large leaves get out of control quickly, and need frequent cutting. Smallleaved ivies are easier to maintain, but they do grow more slowly. Ivy also has a reputation as an invasive plant.

Dear Anne,

“Two-thirds of my front lawn and part of the boulevard have been hit with the chafer beetle. Spring is coming and I will want to reseed, but I don’t know what to do with the part that has not been affected. Should I dig up the rest of my lawn? Or just re-seed what has been infected. The raccoons that were digging up my lawn have seemed to stop going any further.”

Kodiaks finish off Pilots, advance to PJHL final by Troy Landreville

sports@langleyadvance.com

The Aldergrove Kodiaks didn’t just stumble out of the gates in their second round playoff series against the Abbotsford Pilots. On March 5, they fell face-first to the ice. But the Kodiaks’ 8-1 loss to open the Pacific Junior Hockey League Harold Brittain Conference championship series wasn’t a harbinger of what was to come. Quite the opposite. The local junior Bs stirred awake and proceeded to win the next four games to eliminate the Pilots from the playoffs. A solid 4-1 win over the Pilots Tuesday at Abbotsford’s MSA Arena

completed the series victory. Aldergrove’s Spencer McHaffie scored 45 seconds into Tuesday’s game. After that a pair of Pilots lost their bearings. In the last two minutes of the first period, Devon Allenby (hit to the head) and Brett Kolins (charging) were assessed major penalties and game misconducts. The Kodiaks made the Pilots pay with powerplay goals from Ryan Simpson and Scott McHaffie to take a 3-0 lead into the first intermission. Spencer McHaffie’s second of the game – on yet another Kodiaks’ powerplay – made it 4-0 in the second period.

Brandon Daase scored Abbotsford’s lone goal in the third frame. Kodiaks head coach Ron Johnson said discipline was the key. The Kodiaks didn’t get drawn into the rough stuff. “It was a [series] of skill and speed and they [the Pilots] thought it was going to be a physical series,” Johnson said. “I’m really proud of them [the Kodiaks players]. We kept to a plan. We’ve had some guys on the team who have had some trouble with discipline in the past. We changed our composure and that won the series. We kept our cool.” The Kodiaks five-game win over the Pilots likely surprised PJHL pundits.

“The kids are believing in themselves at this stage. If you told anybody we’d be beating Abby, everyone would be in denial. We overcame adversity,” Johnson said. “We are sitting key guys out of the lineup with injuries and the team responded to a man. They took it upon themselves to elevate different areas of the game at different times. Everybody contributed.” The Kodiaks will play the winner of the Delta Ice Hawks/Richmond Sockeyes series in the PJHL final. The Sockeyes lead the best-of-seven Tom Shaw Conference final three games to one. Game five is tonight in Richmond.

It was the Rivermen’s last home game of the regular season and they looked to build upon their stellar home record of 158-1-2. By the final buzzer, the ’Men had suffered their ninth loss of the season on home ice. “I thought we played decent, but we just couldn’t get anything going offensively,” Henderson said. “All in all, things weren’t clicking.” James Barr got the start for Langley between the pipes, while Josh Halpenny got the call for Chilliwack. The Chiefs got on the board just past the five-minute mark with a shorthanded goal by Ryan Donohoe, who scored on a pretty backhand shot to open the scoring. Minutes later, Langley made good on their next power play opportunity. Evan Campbell took a pass from Puskarich and then found Mark Whiteley in the crease. Whitely was able to backhand home his seventh goal of the season. With the assist, Puskarich extended his point streak to 10 games. The Chiefs took over in the second frame. Donohoe notched his second of the game just before the four-minute mark. This time it was on the power play off a rebound from Barr. continued on page A36…

B.C. tourney-bound Eagles capture PCAHA banner Langley came up with two of their strongest games of the season, with a provincial berth on the line. by Troy Landreville sports@langleyadvance.com

The Langley Eagles took flight at Twin Rinks in Chilliwack earlier this month. The Eagles captured the Pacific Coast Amateur Hockey Association midget tier one banner after taking top spot in the PCAHA’s final four tournament, that ran March 2-4. The Eagles opened the tournament with a 4-3 loss to Seafair. Rylan Hunt, Jeremy Lagler, and Quinncy Leroux scored power play goals for the Eagles. In their second game, the Eagles played strong defence in a 3-1 victory over Cloverdale.

Lagler scored shorthanded for the Eagles. Levi Stuart and Brandon Inwood scored on the power play. In their final game, a 5-3 win over Semiahmoo, Leroux scored twice, including one on the power play. Carsen Petersen also tallied twice for Langley while Jordan Gracie notched a shorthanded marker. The winner of the March 4 match-up between Langley and Semiahmoo won the PCAHA championship and with that distinction, would earn a berth in the provincials, hosted by Abbotsford March 17-21. The loser was finished for the season. “The game was without a doubt one of the best games we have been involved in all season,” Eagles head coach Ron Leroux said. “We never trailed in the game.” Gracie opened the scoring with a shorthanded goal midway

Petersen added a power play goal seven minutes into the second period. Semiahmoo answered with a power play goal two minutes later. Leroux scored another power play goal with two minutes left in the period.

On a clean ice surface, Semiahmoo came out strong in the third period, but it was Petersen who scored three minutes into the frame to make it 4-1 for the Eagles. Semiahmoo responded with a pair of power play goals midway through the third to make the contest interesting down the stretch.

A minute after a Langley timeout, Leroux scored an even strength goal to cap the scoring. Semiahmoo was relentless the rest of the way but Kurt Klimek was spectacular in net, Ron Leroux said. The secret to the Eagles’ success is team unity, Leroux added. “We have a very workmanlike team with all 15 skaters and two goalies contributing to every victory,” he said. After the Eagles lost their final four opener – the team’s first loss since Dec 15, a span of 15 games – Leroux told the players in the dressing room that they controlled their own destiny. “The rest of the season was up to them,” he said to his players. “We, as coaches, could not do what is needed.” Leroux said the Eagles responded with two of strongest team games that he has had the privilege of coaching this season. continued on page A35…

Jordan’s tourney at Sportsplex

It’s that time of year again – the Jordan Owens Memorial Spring Initiation Tournament starts Friday.

A tournament held annually in the memory of a young boy who loved hockey is about to face off at the Langley Sportsplex. From Friday to Tuesday (March 15-19), the Sportsplex is hosting 44 teams for the 13th annual Jordan Owens Memorial Spring Initiation Tournament. The event – for five- to eight-year-old boys and girls players – is held annually in memory of Langley hockey player Jordan Owens, who succumbed to cancer at the age of eight. One hundred per cent of the proceeds go to B.C. Children’s Hospital. Tournament director Kimberly Doering noted that last year the tournament raised $21,000. Funds came from a combination of registration fees (less ice and referee costs), direct donations, 50/50 ticket sales, raffle tickets sales (most raffle items are donated), and team fundraising events.

Doering said players get involved in different initiatives such as toonie drives, 50/50 sales at the Abbotsford Heat and Langley Rivermen games, and bottle drives, and all proceeds are donated to the tournament. Each team will get to play four games with the younger H1 teams sneaking in a short appearance. The tournament has no playoffs as it is not about the winning or losing – it is about having fun and supporting a worthwhile cause. Doering said the tournament is competitive in that each team plays four games officiated by a referee, however only the oldest division posts a score. “The emphasis of the tournament is on the love of the game, sportsmanship, and skill development versus winning or losing,” she said. The tournament’s popularity is growing. “This year saw unprecedented interest,” Doering said. “We were able to purchase additional ice and offer registration to four more teams then initially planned. In addition to that we had a wait-list of teams that we were unable to accommodate.”

Eagles at B.C. tourney in Abbotsford …continued from page A34 Eagles’ captain Brandon Inwood played the entire tournament with a severe charley horse and was, Leroux said, “a real leader out there.” The Eagles are preparing for the provincials at MSA Arena in Abbotsford.

“I feel very good about our chances in provincials but not over confident by any means,” Leroux said. “This is a fantastic group of players, the on-ice chemistry is very good, and they should be very proud of what they have accomplished so far this season.”

Langley’s schedule is: March 17, 10:30 a.m. vs. Abbotsford (host) March 18, 8 a.m. vs. Comox Valley, and 5 p.m. vs. Cloverdale March 19, 2 p.m. vs. Prince George March 20, 11 a.m. vs. Kelowna The championship final is March 20 at 8 p.m.

Cancer June 21-July 22: Delays and holdbacks end. A mellow, thoughtful, gentle, loving and observing month trails off now, as ambition (or the demands of authorities, bosses, parents) overtakes you until late April. The switch into an ambitious phase occurs Wednesday. Your energy and charisma soar Tuesday p.m. through Thursday, hinting that you’ll be successful in your projects and ambitions. (Start them Tuesday night.) Earlier, Sunday to Tuesday noon urge you to rest, contemplate and plan. Friday/Saturday emphasize income, spending and possessions – be cautious. A partner might oppose your money plans. Leo July 23-Aug. 22: Recent delays end – march forward confidently (except in home repairs or construction – late July onward best for these). Your hopes, popularity rise Sunday to noon Tuesday. (Sunday holds a nice “surprise package” – a romantic friend?) A minor wish could come true, especially in lifestyle, financial or sexual zones. Midweek nudges you to rest, contemplate and plan future actions. Contact civil servants Tuesday eve/night. You might face a choice between work and rest. Your energy and charisma soar Friday/Saturday – you’re the star! The weeks ahead bring travel, intellectual success. Virgo Aug. 23-Sept. 22: The past month might have brought you an old opportunity. With an ambitious push Sunday to midday Tuesday you could grab that opportunity – if Sunday eve, it might entail grasping a new career by letting go an old one, or real estate; if Monday/Tuesday, it concerns money, income. (Btw, past delays and mistakes are over, so you can go forward confidently.) Midweek brings optimism, flirtation, popularity and wish fulfillment – and marks a turn into deep things for the weeks ahead – sex, dreams, big finances, commitment, lifestyle changes, research. Retreat, rest Friday/Saturday.

Tim Stephens' Astral Reflections Aries March 21 - April 19: You feel restless, curious Sunday to Tuesday morning – a hint that your time of weariness and solitude is ending. Tuesday to Thursday bring a ﬁnal tired phase, so rest deeply, hug your family, shore up your security, and adjust your launching pad (e.g., dry clean your good suit). By Friday/Saturday your energy, charisma, sense of timing and effectiveness soar – you’re launched on a month of accomplishment and success! Sunday ends most recent delays and indecision. You might remain a bit indecisive, but you can now “take steps” without fear of proceeding in the wrong direction. Taurus April 20-May 20: Recent delays, mistakes and indecision end – though indecision might bother you a while longer. Chase money Sunday to Tuesday morning. (A money plum might be waiting to be plucked Sunday p.m.) Your hopes and popularity rise Tuesday noon to Thursday, but the cancellation of an expected happy meeting is your clue that a cycle of rest and quietude is upon you – until late April. (By Friday/Saturday you’ll feel the “hibernation mood” this phase brings – but you’ll also see the potential rewards it carries, Friday.) Pursue an important government/institutional project into late April. Gemini May 21-June 20: Recent delays and potential false starts end. You can march forward now, start new projects, meet new people, etc. Your energy, charisma and clout surge upward Sunday to Tuesday noon – start something involving travel, learning, relocation, opportunity or a partnership (love or business) Sunday afternoon/eve. Midweek brings income, possessions, and spending. It also (Wednesday) kicks off a month of popularity, wish fulfillment, light romance and happiness! Friday/ Saturday offer travel, friends, curiosity’s rewards: but these conflict with the demands of your job. Your choice.

Libra Sept. 23-Oct. 22: Weeks of delay, mistakes and indecision end now, especially in work and health zones – but in future weeks you will hear news, not experience action, on these two fronts. Sunday to midday Tuesday accents intellectual progress/success, far travel, culture, and gentle love. Jump on any of these Sunday eve. Midweek brings career pressures, ambition, and relations with higher-ups. Wednesday begins a month of relationships – significant ones. You could wed, meet a future mate, form a business partnership, relocate, or grasp “fame” before late April – be assertive! Friday/Saturday: joy! Scorpio Oct. 23-Nov. 21: Delays are over; you can confidently walk forward, grasp the new, and start projects. Any lingering indecision will fade by early April. Wednesday begins a month of quite significant work, health issues, and dependents’ needs. Make firm, well-thought-out choices and actions. Whatever you do, work hard. Sunday to noon Tuesday accents mystery, research, sexual desire, financial and lifestyle commitment – Sunday eve holds a juicy plum here: pluck it! (E.g., reveal desires, make an investment, etc.) Midweek is gentle, mellow. Be ambitious Friday/ Saturday: higher-ups are watching. Sagittarius Nov. 22-Dec. 21: Delays end Sunday, especially in domestic, security, realty and retirement zones. But these concerns will be a minor whisper, because midweek begins a brash, exciting month of romance, pleasure and creativity. Sunday (grab an opportunity!) to midday Tuesday accents relationships, relocation, public dealings (from retail sales to fame) negotiation and litigation. To succeed, be “partner prone,” diplomatic and eager to join. Applies through June. Midweek brings secrets, sexual bonding, financial ventures: you might end a commitment, to make another. Love, even marriage, looms.

BORROW AGAINST YOUR VEHICLE!

604.503.BARK (2275)

March 17 - 23, 2013 Capricorn Dec. 22-Jan. 19: Delays have ended: march ahead. Sunday to Tuesday noon brings chores, health matters, and dependents’ concerns. (Don’t take on too big a burden Sunday eve.) Midweek emphasizes relationships, opportunities, relocation themes and possible new love. (Possible, though likely not longlasting.) Secrets, sexual urges, ﬁnancial manoeuvres, lifestyle changes, research and diagnosis colour Friday/Saturday – be cautious, your actions here might point in a direction you don’t eventually want to go. Wednesday begins a month of power naps, home, family, property and security concerns. Aquarius Jan. 20-Feb. 18: The transition from a month of money interests to a month of casual friends, paperwork, short travel and communications occurs Wednesday – it’s so smooth, you’ll hardly notice it. (Money interests, to some degree – mostly money conversations – will hang on for several weeks.) Meanwhile, Sunday to noon Tuesday brings romance, creative urges, pleasure, poetic feelings and joys with children. (Sunday eve’s best – a new love possible.) Midweek emphasizes mystery, subconscious and sexual urges, commitment, ﬁnancial actions and research. Relationships need caution Friday/Saturday. Pisces Feb. 19-March 20: Delays end, especially in relationships. “Domestic quietude” comes Sunday to Tuesday noon – sink into family, garden, the joy of sunshine and shade. Grab a prestige realty or similar opportunity Sunday eve – e.g., move to a classier district, upgrade furniture, send kids to a prestige school. Midweek brings romance, creative surges. (Dreams, hunches are true Tuesday eve). Wednesday starts a month of money luck, earnings, spending, possessions and sensual attraction . These themes are more important than in most years: act with “major intent.” Routine chores Friday/Saturday. timstephens@shaw.ca • Reading: 604-886-4808
