City serves $5.3M price tag the few, not raises questions the many Dear Editor,
Re: “New clubhouse slated for Minoru Park,” News, May 30.
Dear Editor, Re: “5M waste,” “Investment in bowling club doesn’t add up,” Letters, May 30. I have to agree with Sam Parker and Geordie McGillivray in the May 30th issue that the city is wasting more than $5 million for 280 people. I’ve had two daughters grow up on the Hugh Boyd soccer field and have watched hundreds of children and their families practicing and playing over the years since the fields opened. When the West Richmond Community Centre is closed and there is still soccer going on, there are only two portapotties available to the players and spectators. It’s embarrassing when we are hosting visiting teams for league games, and all we have are two porta-potties that are often in disgusting/stinky condition (especially on a Sunday after being well used on the weekend). Having visited so many other sports fields over the years with covered bleachers and flush washroom facilities, it is shocking that the city would rather spend taxpayer money on a few, as opposed to the many.
Michelle Carver RICHMOND
Richmond City Council, specifically Mayor Malcolm Brodie and couns. Bill McNulty, Alexa Loo, Chak Au and Linda McPhail, voted to spend $5.3 million of city money to build a clubhouse for the Richmond Lawn Bowling Club, which amounts to a private club for 280 people. It’s just inexcusable to show such favouritism when many public sports organizations have no office space, Dear Editor, In all the reading I have done about the lawn bowling clubhouse, I have not seen how the $5.2 million price tag was arrived at. A quick search of MLS listings of houses in Richmond built since 2018 shows:
washroom rooms.
facilities
or
dressing
Add to that, the building costs are proposed to be $1,100 per square foot, when according to Western Investor, “the hard construction cost for a Class A five-to-30 storey office building in Vancouver ranges from $270 to $340 per square foot.”
We need to revisit this decision and at the very least, make this building multipurpose.

The price of these new homes includes the cost of the land they are built on, but for the lawn bowling clubhouse, this would not be a factor. Can someone from the city please explain why it is going to cost so much?

Weeds go wild in Hamilton Dear Editor,
I have lived in the Hamilton area for the past 27 years. Every year I have to phone the city multiple times about the weeds growing seven feet tall and higher along our community path before anyone comes to cut them down. One year I even had to contact Coun. Bill McNulty due to the lack of response from city staff. This year I have called four times. Still, no one from the city has bothered to return my calls, nor have the weeds been cut down. The weeds are a fire hazard and carry allergens which are harmful to many people, including myself. I have lived in Richmond for more than 45 years, and NEVER experienced such a blatant lack of services when I lived on Richmond’s west side. The city intends to raise our taxes by more than 25 per cent in the next five years. Despite all these increases, the level of services seems to decline every year. It is totally unacceptable.

John attended and presented awards at the 2nd annual Game of Apps Tournament which featured creative mobile device app developments by high school students.
Dear Constituents, With the Spring 2019 Legislative session now wrapped up, we mark the second anniversary of the NDP government’s reign of incompetence. In the Legislature, I continued to voice your concerns against NDP measures that make life less affordable in B.C. Pain At The Pump: British Columbians will spend the summer paying the highest gas prices in North America as John Horgan and David Eby continue to pick fights with Alberta and the rest of Canada, as the NDP tries to constrain the supply of Canadian/Alberta oil. John Horgan controls over 35 cents per litre of gas, and could have taken action to provide relief to drivers as he had promised to last year. Instead, he has been pointing fingers at everyone else and even banned the B.C. Utility Commission’s review from looking at the impact of provincial taxation policy on high gas prices. We have been calling on Premier Horgan to give British Columbians the relief they deserve but he is doing nothing about it, except spending taxpayers’ money to block a much-needed pipeline.
John attended and presented an award at the 55th Annual Ceremonial Review of the 195 Bicknell Royal Canadian Sea Cadets in Richmond.
The Massey Tunnel Gridlock: If the high gas prices are not enough to keep you off the road, I certainly hope you are not one of the 94,000 commuters who need to sit in the daily traffic jam of the George Massey Tunnel. The Massey Tunnel has served its purpose for 60 years. It’s now inefficient, seismically unsound and is the worst traffic bottleneck in the entire province. But the NDP government will not decide on upgrading or replacing the Massey Tunnel till the fall of 2020. Motorists can’t wait for another year and a half. Families living south of the Fraser need action now, for the good of B.C., our environment and our economy. Rewarding NDP Union Friends: What truly bothers me and constituents the most is the NDP’s ideology-driven decisions, which put politics before people. Our community social services sector is already facing recruitment and retention problems. Nevertheless, the NDP is discriminating against non-union workers in this sector, by giving special pay raises to unionized staff only. The result is that while some employees will get an 18% increase over three years, other non-unionized staff will only get 6%. This is completely unfair and a blow to the mostly female workers being discriminated against. I’ve received letters from workers in social service organizations, such as Richmond Society for Community Living, calling on the government to scrap this unfair pay policy.
Along with Richmond RCMP OIC Will Ng, John attended and presented awards at the Broadmoor Neighbourhood Association summer picnic event, which featured friendly games for fun and team building.
This discriminatory pay policy is just one example of the NDP picking winners, rewarding their select union friends, over other deserving people. British Columbians deserve better than the John Horgan NDP excuses, the rising taxes and out-of-control government spending spree, as they look after their select union friends. I will, along with my B.C. Liberal opposition colleagues, fight for Opportunity for all of B.C.
At the annual fundraiser in support of the Heart and Stroke Foundation, John rode the Big Bike, as part of the Trinity Western University Richmond team.
Sincerely,
John Yap MLA, Richmond-Steveston

Library policy lacks logic Dear Editor, The Richmond Public Library needs to change its booking policy in regards to its digitization station. Until recently, patrons were limited to one two-hour booking per day, with the possibility of an hour extension, if it was not booked, and another hour extension at the staff’s discretion. Twice, staff has used its discretionary power to deny me using the station for the final hour, even though the station was not booked at those times. I was told the reason was that other patrons will enquire about it when it’s free. In fact, I believe more patrons’ interest in the station will be piqued when a patron is creating something at it, than when it is idling. Keeping the station busy is a win-win opportunity: the station gains more public exposure, which is the library’s goal, and patrons get more efficient use of its resources. This is not an art object for contemplation. Also, bookings are now done on the half hour. Prior to that, bookings could be made at any time patrons were there. If a patron
showed up at, say, 9:09 a.m., the patron could use the station till 1:09 p.m. With bookings on the half hour, now patrons will lose minutes of potential use. The reason the library gave was that it was “smoother” than to book at 9:39 or 9:49 hrs. On the contrary, I believe, it is no easier to book at 9:30 or 9:39 or even 9:49 hrs for that matter. We are in the “digital age” using a “digitization station!” Is the library leading patrons back to the “stone age?” Since I addressed the Library Board about my concerns, the situation has worsened. The discretionary hour has been eliminated. The library is claiming staff confusion because I asked that patrons be given specific reasons why they may not get the additional hour as opposed to being subject to the whims and vagaries of staff. As well, the library is talking about reducing it to two hours! Is this effective and efficient use of taxpayers resources?

Farmer fined for 41-year-old sign
a public complaint regarding the size and location of the sign.
Alan Campbell
“City bylaws do not permit signs of that size or placement on city property. While there is a provision for special approval, (the) engineering department has reviewed the size and location of the sign and is not prepared to grant an exception,” said Townsend.
ACAMPBELL@RICHMOND-NEWS.COM
One of Richmond’s most respected farmers has been fined $1,000 and forced to take down a strawberry sign, which has been up during the berry season for 41 years.
“Staff have successfully worked with Mr. Zylmans on previous occasions to relocate seasonal signage during harvest seasons and we are working with him...
Bill Zylmans — whose family has owned and operated more than 500 acres at W & A Farms on Westminster Highway near No. 8 Road for more than 50 years — was hit with a $1,000 bylaw infraction ticket on Tuesday.
“While the city supports agriculture and our farmers, staff also have to apply city bylaws consistently. For example, the city applies the same restrictions to election signs.”
The offending item was a 10 foot by five foot sign, promoting his strawberries, attached to his trailer sitting on city land, off to the side of Westminster Highway at Knight Street. The sign, Zylmans told the Richmond News, has been at the location during the very short, month-long strawberry season since 1978. After several discussions with the city’s bylaw department, a $500 ticket issued last week had been rescinded, but on the premise the farmer take the sign down immediately. He refused to do so and, on Tuesday, he was handed a fresh $1,000 fine and given 48 hours to take the sign and trailer away. “It’s an industry sign, telling everyone that strawberries are happening, not just my crop. A ton of people will know they are in after seeing that sign,” said an exasperated Zylmans, who drove the sign away Tuesday.
Bill Zylmans’ sign on Westminster Highway at Knight Street has been up during the strawberry season since 1978. This week, the Richmond farmer got a $1,000 ticket and was ordered to remove it by the city. Alan Campbell photo “Somebody new at city hall doesn’t like me and I don’t know why. I’ve been putting that same sign up for 16 years and an older one (for 25 years) before that...at the same place. “It’s tied to a trailer, it’s not interfering with traffic. It’s only up in strawberry season and then comes down a few weeks later when the season finishes.” Zylmans initially told a bylaw officer last week that he had no intention of taking the
sign down, adding it was “going to stay there until (the) season is done in a few weeks.” City spokesperson Ted Townsend told the News that Zylmans’ sign “cannot remain on public property, as it is not permitted.” Townsend said the matter would be resolved if Zylmans – who formerly chaired the city’s Agricultural Advisory Committee — moved the sign onto private property. Townsend added that the city had received
Zylmans, however, isn’t feeling that love for agriculture from the city right now. “Agriculture is tough enough without this kind of harassment,” he said. “I’m pretty disheartened to be honest. I’m ready to pack it all in if this is the city’s attitude to farming.” Zylmans said he’s happy to sit down and talk with the city – at the end of the strawberry season in a few weeks. “Let’s get something specific in the bylaws with regard to farm signs,” he said. “This is a crucial time for us. Give me two weeks for crying out loud. There is no one as passionate about farming in Richmond as I am.”

Lawyer Hong Guo has her suspension lifted Although the investigation into her practices is still ongoing, the society confirmed Monday that Guo’s administrative suspension from May 30 was lifted on June 6.
Alan Campbell ACAMPBELL@RICHMOND-NEWS.COM
The suspension of Richmond lawyer Hong Guo has been lifted, according to the industry’s governing body. Richmond-News.com reported last week how Guo had been suspended from practising while the Law Society of BC continued its investigation into her business dealings.
The society said it couldn’t go into the details of the suspension – given the ongoing investigation – saying only that it was for “failing to comply with a Law Society requirement.” “The suspension was lifted…after she complied with what was required of her under the rules that had resulted in her administrative
City of Richmond
suspension,” said the society. Administrative suspensions, it added, may be imposed for anything from non-payment of fees to failing to provide records. Guo, said the society, still faces discipline proceedings. The citations have still to be proved in a discipline hearing. Guo, a real estate lawyer who ran unsuccessfully for Richmond mayor last fall, has been at the centre of two society probes into alleged professional misconduct.
The News has made several attempts to contact Guo for comment. She is alleged to have acted in a conflict of interest while representing several clients in connection to the purchase of two forestry-related companies. She is facing another hearing connected to the loss of $7.5 million from one of her firm’s trust accounts. She accused her bookkeeper (now arrested in China) of stealing the money. Guo has repaid the trust shortage through her own funds and through insurance, the Law Society confirmed.

Speeder chided for ‘wanton disregard’ Alan Campbell ACAMPBELL@RICHMOND-NEWS.COM
The ticketing and towing by police of a sports car in Richmond is drawing favourable attention on social media. Richmond RCMP tweeted their pulling over of an Audi R8 on Steveston Highway on Monday, with the officer indicating that the driver was showing “wanton disregard for safety of the community around him. Our streets are not your playground.” As well as having the car impounded, the driver was ticketed for excessive speeding and two additional infractions. The officer signed off with “#Bingo.” Comments on Twitter included this one by @ouroborosage: “Thank you so much for making #RoadSafety important and for sharing it on social media so people can SEE it in action #VisionZeroBC #SpeedKills”

Bus service increases Alan Campbell ACAMPBELL@RICHMOND-NEWS.COM
An increased bus service is coming to two of Richmond’s most overcrowded routes. As of June 24, the 403 (from Riverport to Bridgeport station) and the 430 (from Brighouse to Metrotown) will see extra buses to alleviate overcrowding. It’s all part of TransLink’s 2018 Transit Service Performance Review, which zoomed in on “route metrics and statistics.” In particular, the 403 is getting an extra southbound service weekday evenings,
which will now be every 12 minutes, from 6 to 7 p.m. The 430 is getting an additional early morning service weekdays and Saturdays, being increased to every 15 minutes from 5 to 6 a.m. Also, the 620 from Bridgeport to Tsawwassen ferry terminal will run later into the night in the busy summer season, to accommodate ferry schedules. TransLink is permanently increasing the service across 26 popular bus routes in the region, with another 13 routes enjoying seasonal increases until Sept. 2. For the full list of permanent and seasonal increases, go to TransLink.ca/servicechanges.

Hundreds lined up for Uniqlo T-shirts Nono Shen
JUNE 1 TO JULY 31, 2019
NSHEN@RICHMOND-NEWS.COM
Hundreds of people lined up outside the Uniqlo store in Richmond Centre early Friday morning — just to get the latest T-shirt from an exclusive designer.
By 10:30 a.m. the lineup stretched at least 100 deep, with the store operating a 15 people-in, 15-out policy. A short video went viral across social media this week that showcased shoppers in China shoving and fighting with each other over the clothes. But, unlike the pandemonium happening in China, dozens of people queued in orderly fashion, with some buying a large volume of the T-shirts.

Call and ask for HME exclusive Bruno special! People started lining up outside Uniqlo in Richmond Centre on Friday at 4:30 a.m. to get their hands on designer T-shirts. (Below) two shoppers, who didn’t want to give their names, came to shop in place of their friends who were working. (Bottom) Brayden (right) and his friend managed to get one of the coveted Tshirts.

Jeff Zhang, a student from Richmond Secondary school, had been waiting there for three hours, despite him not even being a fan of the designer.

Demand for Uniqlo’s latest collaboration with American artist Kaws resulted in Black Friday-style shopping mania, with some customers queueing as early as 4:30 a.m.

“My friends have been talking about this new collection for a while and even some celebrities in China wear them. I think this might be a good gift for my mother and she could also be as fashionable as the young generation,” Zhang told the Richmond News. There were some shoppers, however, who were there for the design. “I love the design, and I almost got one sample of everything,” said Brayden Oie. Oie arrived at the store at 7 a.m., but he wasn’t among the first people showing up.
Kelly McCann, Studio Manager Voted Best Yoga Teacher
A few shoppers waited in line to purchase clothes for their friends or family members. A lady, who described herself only as Wang, told the News she came along to buy one of the T-shirts as a favour for a friend who had to work.

Titles, subsequent marriage & children: a potent mix The recently decided Saskatchewan case Hilmoe v. Hilmoe serves as a (planning!) lesson for anyone in a subsequent marriage who owns land and has children. In the case, Mr. Hilmoe, who was in a second marriage, had inherited farmland from his parents. A year before he died, he transferred title to himself and his wife as Joint Tenants. He died in 2007. Afterward, she arranged transfer of the titles to herself.

Nine years later, she applied for an Order that she owned full title (legal and beneficial). The deceased’s children opposed. Among their arguments was that she unduly influenced her late husband to transfer the titles to her. The Court found a lack of medical evidence that the husband was “confused” when he transferred the titles (as the children had alleged). The wife was declared full owner of the land. The children appealed and lost. They applied for leave to appeal to the Supreme Court of Canada, and lost again. There is a lot to this case, but suffice it to say that without a plan in place, these kinds of sad things will happen.

Mall to transform into ‘village’ Onni saga finally over “Cadillac Fairview needed to decide whether to re-lease (the former Sears building) or take a more future-looking, integrated approach into what could happen with that site – that was the impetus to start this project,” Paquet said.

MRANTANEN@RICHMOND-NEWS.COM
Shape Properties hopes to have shovels in the ground by early 2020 at Richmond Centre to start transforming it into a high-density, transit-oriented neighbourhood with homes, shops and services.
In a recent report by New Valuegraphics Research, a consumer research company, converting auto-oriented suburban shopping centres into “vertical villages” is a growing trend across North America.
Dubbed “Live at FC Richmond Centre,” the project got the green light recently from the city’s development permit panel to start moving ahead with the first phase, which will include 1,166 homes including 79 affordable housing units, new streets, a public plaza as well as street-level shops and services. Michelle Paquet, vice-president of development for Shape Properties, said the project reflects new trends in retail as people are looking for an experience when they go out, not just a new pair of shoes. Instead of the current “field of parking” and inward-facing mall, the new retail shopping will be street-oriented and surrounded by high-rise residential buildings. This turns a portion of the mall inside out, to create a pedestrian-
Richmond Centre will have with homes and public areas as well as shopping. Photo submitted friendly shopping precinct, anchored around a public plaza. “The retail market is shifting to more experiential retail, where people can go and gather and spend time,” Paquet said. Shape Properties is also redeveloping Brentwood and Lougheed malls in Burnaby and Paquet said those two and Richmond Centre all have a similar vision, to reimagine the traditional town centre.
City of Richmond
The Richmond Centre site is owned partly by Cadillac-Fairview Richmond Centre and partly by Aimco, an Alberta-based investment company while Shape Property is the developer. However, Cadillac-Fairview is the operating owner of the mall, Paquet said. The closure of the department store Sears started the process of redeveloping Richmond Centre, although it had been rezoned decades earlier.
When they looked at the type of people living in these converted shopping centres, they were labelled as local experience chasers, workaholic investors, creative savers — creative people who live frugally to support their lifestyle — and city-loving environmentalists. “Each one of these groups has a distinct set of values, wants, needs, and expectations. They make all their decisions all day long based on their values,” said the report’s author David Allison, in a press release. The Richmond Centre project will be 50 per cent “family friendly” with 479 two-bedroom units and 105 three-bedroom units.
Onni’s Steveston waterfront development received final adoption, with four councillors in opposition.
Onni Group agreed to pay the city $5.5 million in exchange for rezoning six commercial buildings on the waterfront, originally designated for marine mixed use. Mayor Malcolm Brodie pointed out council didn’t approve some things Onni proposed. “Onni has been hardnosed to deal with,” he said. “There’s no law against being hard-nosed to deal with.” The rezoning passed with Couns. Carol Day, Harold Steves, Kelly Greene and Michael Wolfe voting in opposition. - Maria Rantanen/News

Mental health art calls city hall home for June Alan Campbell ACAMPBELL@RICHMOND-NEWS.COM
A non-profit that supports people with mental health challenges has launched its first Art Project Roadshow at Richmond City Hall. Throughout June, artists from Vancouver-based Coast Mental Health will attempt to reduce the stigma of mental illness through 10 paintings on show. In total, 16 member artists from Coast Mental Health are exhibiting 40 paintings at 12 community spaces across the Lower Mainland between May and October. The roadshow highlights the talents of the organization’s members, but also shines a light on the need for communityrun programming that supports people with diverse needs. “We designed the Art Project Roadshow to bring attention to the barriers that prevent many of our members from participating in community-run initiatives, such as a local art exhibition,” said Tracy Schonfeld, director of community services at Coast Mental Health. “Building healthy and inclusive communities means developing programs that accommodate a diverse group of people to ensure no one is left behind.”

Art has been long known for its therapeutic benefits and is a powerful tool for self-discovery and healing. Sandra Yuen MacKay, one of the artists involved in the roadshow, struggled with her mental health since she was diagnosed as a teenager with schizophrenia.
Sandra Yuen MacKay’s art is one of many on display at Richmond City Hall. Photo submitted “Art has been my salvation,” said MacKay. “I’ve painted abstract works and urban scenes about alienation, angst, social inclusion and isolation, but my florals are full of joy, hope and beauty.” As an artist with mental illness, MacKay works extra hard to overcome the stigma and isolation of mental illness that impedes her from connecting with an audience outside of the mental health community. “The…roadshow gives some visibility and exposure, which I might not have had otherwise,” added MacKay.

More money for health care means there will better services for seniors – unfortunately, it has resulted in a delay in opening up the Community Health Access Centre (CHAC) in Richmond’s city centre. When the province announced extra funding for health care last year, it meant the plans for the facility, which
will offer services for frail seniors and adults in the community, home care and home support services, needed to be rejigged, resulting in a year-long delay. But Carole Gillam, director of public health and primary care with Vancouver Coastal Health (VCH), said this increase in funding means the service parameters will be much improved. “This has been the best year in health care in a long time in the community,” she said. The building at Alderbridge Way and Lansdowne Road was originally leased
in March 2018. The second floor was already being used for mental health and substance use services, and so the health authority leased the rest of the building to centralize services for seniors and community care, to create a centralized health care hub. They then started the planning process for CHAC, but, that spring, the province announced increased funding for health care – for example, bringing home support back under the health authority rather than contracting it out, explained Gillam. 15

Centre could open in 2020 The space would have been too small with the expanded services they were planning, so VCH decided not to include primary care in that building. Rather, they would focus on mental health and seniors, which will now include extra programs to support people with complex medical conditions to remain independent in the community, something Gillam calls a “great initiative” but which requires more staff and resources.

With some revisions, they were able to reduce their budget to $6.3 million and with an $800,000 donation from the Richmond Hospital Foundation, the final budget for the project has come to $7.1 million. This covers planning and getting the infrastructure in place to create an up-to-date space to move health services into with no break in services, Gillam explained. The request for proposals will be out early this summer and renovations should start in mid August with a move-in date in spring 2020, Gillam said. The health authority could have moved forward earlier, but after their review, Gillam said they realized it wouldn’t have been in the best interest of Richmond residents. “Yes, there was a delay, but I think it was an appropriate delay that will have much improved outcomes — we’ll be able to serve our population much more effectively,” Gillam said.

“Under the CHAC, they’ll be under one roof, and the whole point of it is teams will be situated together, talk to each other and do on-going joint care planning,” she said, adding she hopes there will eventually be one care plan for each person, not several different paper trails.

Being in one building will centralize services and allow health care teams to collaborate on patient care instead of offering scattered services, delivered piecemeal. Currently, the health authority offers diverse services but in many different places, and clinical staff don’t talk to each other, Gillam explained.

With the expanded operating budget, it took them nine months to plan how the facility would work, and by then, the costs of trades had gone up “significantly” to $7.5 million, up by about $1.5 million from the original cost.

CHAC will have one phone number for the public to call to describe the service they need, and then they will get a “warm handover,” that is, they’ll be transferred to speak to a person how to get that service. Gillam said the health authority’s job is to make their services easily accessible for the public. “We have created all these barriers through different buildings and different areas,’ she said. “Staff need to come together as a team, work cohesively, to support one individual in the care that they need.”

Having left behind an unfulfilling life in London, England, in 2013 – where she found herself working full-time in unfamiliar territory as a real estate agent – Raymond is loving life in Richmond and is making ripples in the city’s growing arts scene. She was one of the first artists to work and live in the purpose-built arts village, on the first floor of the Concord Gardens Development at Sexsmith and Patterson roads. Now Raymond teaches the City of Richmond’s musical theatre and drama programs, as well as instructing at Bright Stars in Vancouver and running her own PR company. And in the works is the latest offering of “Hysteria” from her progressive (and now registered non-profit) Direct Theatre Collective, a show which last year depicted how future technology mitigated hysteria towards the #MeToo movement.

Leaning forward in her patio seat, an excited Raymond said she would consider testing “Hysteria 2.0” (its working title) on a traditionally conservative Richmond audience.
Services at 8:30 and 10:00 am
“I would like to do a couple of smaller performances (of Hysteria 2.0), as I get the sense there are less companies pushing those boundaries in Richmond,” said Raymond.
“Then I found myself without a job in London in 2012 and thought, ‘what am I doing with my life? Why am I heading in this direction? I never wanted to be an estate agent, what’s that about?’
“The mandate of Direct Theatre Collective is to evoke and provoke reaction and to ask questions and look into societal change through theatre. I haven’t seen anything in Richmond that’s doing that. It’s quite a conservative city.
“So I realized there was no reason to stay in London. And I’ve always felt an infinity with Vancouver. I love the coast, coming from Newcastle.”

“We were going through the (Hysteria) script to...build on it, improve it and add more feedback on new characters. “It has to evolve to keep up with the discussion. It was changing so rapidly, but a few months ago, everything went quiet. Now we have the anti-abortion movement front and centre. “But it’s a balance. You have to think about getting bums on seats, but there’s also a responsibility to challenge people’s ideas. I don’t think (Hysteria is) too offensive or too wildly out there for Richmond.” Raymond said she’s an entertainer and an artist, who wants people to come to the theatre and “have a good time. But I want them to go away with something to think about. “The dream for me is performing art that grows ideas outside. Art can make people have those conversations in ways that nothing else can.” Before Raymond – a native of Newcastle, England, who has dual citizenship through her Canadian father — came to Vancouver in 2013, she was having, a “crisis of conscience.” “I was actually working in real estate. I decided art was a bit of a pipe dream. I was working three jobs that I hated,” she confessed. “I just kind of lost my drive. I thought I would have time to do my music on the side. But I was miserable, because I had no

time to do anything on the side.
Unfortunately for Raymond, the lion’s share of theatre work in Vancouver is unpaid. “I’d no idea if I was going to be here for six months or what. But things started falling into place really quickly,” she added. “I was walking along Broadway, handing out my CVs to bars and restaurants. A car pulled up in front of me, which had information on it about a drama school...in Vancouver. “I was taking down the information, but this woman got out the car, she was the owner of the company and I spoke to her. Her instructor was moving to Toronto in two weeks. Within two weeks, I was working there.” Raymond said she was also working at Starbucks for a little while, before getting the City of Richmond job. “The balance tipped where I had enough teaching work that I didn’t have enough time for Starbucks,” laughed Raymond. “All my work links back into either nurturing young artists or helping established artists. I feel very good about where I am right now.” As for the performing art studio/apartment she now calls home in Capstan Village, Raymond said she’s beginning to see the green shoots of an artists’ village among the high rises that the city envisaged a few years ago, when planning permission was given to the developer. “There is still a lot of construction, but the artists are all still working together, helping each other out,” she said. “We’re trying to organize something like a car-free day, so we can close off the streets and have an exhibition of everything we have to offer. “I don’t think people living there really know what’s going on yet. And we can’t put up notices or advertise within our building because of the strata rules. There is maybe a little bit of detachment from what the city wanted us to be doing there and what the strata will allow. “But I think people are interested, so it’s a little bit of a shame we’re not able to showcase ourselves more.”

Thank you for being a “driving” force to help improve local health care at the
Richmond Hospital Foundation Golf Tournament presented by River Green by ASPAC. Thank you! You helped us raise $288,000 (net) to
help save and improve the lives of patients and families.
Richmond Hospital Foundation’s annual golf tournament brought together our medical team from our Intensive Care Unit, donors, sponsors and volunteers who all rallied to raise funds to improve patient care at Richmond Hospital. Part of this year’s fundraising focus was the need for new life-sustaining kidney machines in the ICU when a patient’s own kidneys are failing. Thanks to generous donors, the Richmond Hospital ICU will receive two new state-of-the-art kidney machines. For the 9 th consecutive year with ASPAC as its Presenting Sponsor and sun-filled spectacular weather, the event brought together over 140 golfers and more than 250 guests. Thank you for continuing to demonstrate your long-term commitment to improving health care in our community. 7000 Westminster Highway Richmond BC V6X 1A2 604.244.5252 www.richmondhospitalfoundation.com

Students, staff and parents at Walter Lee elementary raised more funds to help fight childhood cancer than any other school in the Lower Mainland competing in RBC’s Race for Kids in support of B.C. Children’s Hospital. But while the $6,765 total is impressive, it pales in comparison to the amount of love and concern raised throughout the challenge, said one of the organizers. Walter Lee elementary is home to Kelsey Chen, a seven year old who is in the middle of an intense battle with cancer. Kelsey was diagnosed at age three with rhabdomyosarcoma, a cancerous tumour that can invade and destroy nearby tissue. The tumour pressed on her chiasm optic nerve, resulting in Kelsey’s loss of vision. The cancer had been in
remission but about a month ago, it returned. “We did fundraising during the past three years. This year, however, was the biggest,” said Michele Melandis, education assistant at Walter Lee and the team captain of the Walter Lee Lions. Melandis has also been transcribing print into braille for Kelsey during the past three years. “We made announcements
every morning to ask people to join our team (in school). Also, we tried to use social media and emails to reach out to more people.” Melandis describes Kelsey as “a shining star” who also has a “talent in writing.” Kelsey published two books last year, titled What a Wonderful World and The Amazing Adventure. She is currently working on a third book.

Team B.C. retains North Pacific title at Quilchena Foursomes, otherwise known as alternate shot, is for many players the most nervewracking format of match play golf. You never would have known it by watching Team British Columbia perform at the North Pacific Junior Ladies Team Matches at Quilchena Golf & Country Club in Richmond. The six B.C. girls earned all nine points up for grabs in their three alternate-shot matchesto register their fourth straight victory in the annual event that includes fellow juniors from Idaho, Oregon and Washington. The B.C. team of Chaewon Baek of Langley, Euna Han of Coquitlam, Lauren Kim of Surrey, Tiffany Kong of Vancouver, Angel Lin of Surrey and Angela Zhang of Vancouver combined to earn 15 points in the two-day competition. Washington was second with 11.5, while Oregon finished with six points and Idaho earned 3.5.
The North Pacific Junior Ladies Team Matches are modeled after the Curtis Cup matches for amateur women.
All competition is match play with the front nine worth one point, the back nine one point and the overall 18 another point. Six fourball matches were played on Saturday with six foursome (alternate-shot) matches played Sunday. B.C. trailed Washington by a half-point after Saturday’s four-ball matches, but quickly took charge in alternate shot. The team of Zhang and Baek led the way, collecting all six points from their two matches. Zhang said she and Baek just clicked as a team. “I love match play and Chaewon and I work very well together,” Zhang said. “We keep pushing the accelerator and never let the other team have any chances to win.
Team B.C. celebrates its North Pacific competition win at Quilchena.

Golfer ends university career in style Ziggy Nathu looking forward to turning pro this fall after big wins in Florida & Ontario “I had a 20-foot putt for birdie in regulation with the same line,” recalled the Hugh Boyd graduate. “I knew the break going in and I just needed to hit it hard enough to give it a chance. “(For my second shot) it was from 270 yards out, uphill and over a bunker. I knew I had to go for it and probably hit the best 3-wood of my entire life.”

Zahidali (Ziggy) Nathu sure knows how to close out his university golf career. The Richmond native is back home after playing five tournaments in six weeks that included stops in Florida, Arizona, Ontario and Mexico City. Along the way he produced the biggest win of his promising career and helped the UBC Thunderbirds capture the national title. Nathu’s clutch birdie putt completed a final round UBC comeback to edge Western for team honours at the Canadian University/College Championship in Komoka. It was the second time the Hugh Boyd graduate had come through in a playoff after capturing individual honours at the 33rd PGA WORKS Collegiate Championship in spectacular fashion. After seeing a two-shot lead evaporate on the final two holes. Nathu and Florida A&M’s Logan Bryant
Nathu was back home for three days before helping UBC finish tied for fifth at the NAIA Championships in Arizona. The team then flew directly to Ontario for the Canadian Championship. He wrapped up the hectic stretch at the 2019 Mexican International Amateur in Mexico City.
Ziggy Nathu got some work in with his coach Nathan Leonhardt this week at the Richmond Country Club after a hectic finish to his university season. Photo by Mark Booth played the par-5 17th hole again in a sudden-death playoff. After playing the hole 1-over in three
rounds, Nathu clutched up to reach the green in two then drained a 40foot eagle putt for the win.
Nathu didn’t let his golf schedule get in the way of his studies, graduating with honours from UBC’s Sauder of Business. Now, he is winding down his amateur career with the plans of turning professional in September. He has been than Leonhardt the Richmond launched the

Academy to mentor aspiring players. “He is a much more mature player now,” said Leonhardt of his student. “Ziggy was really struggling with bunkers, just getting up and down when he came to me. After one session they became his favourite thing. “We talk all the time. Just giving him the knowledge as a player myself that college guys have not gone through yet so he knows what is coming ahead of him.” Nathu has a busy summer ahead with tournaments in Calgary and Victoria, leading up to the B.C. Amateur in Pemberton. He will also head to Oregon next month in hopes of qualifying for the U.S. Amateur that will take place at Pinehurst a few weeks later. There will also be the Canadian Amateur in Nova Scotia.

Baker heads to Russia to compete
Two-day baking showdown netted a coveted spot at international competition Maria Rantanen MRANTANEN@RICHMOND-NEWS.COM
Claire Roque needs to work on her sugar skills. Unfortunately, the closest sugar experts are in Seattle and Los Angeles, and the pastry chef she would really like to learn from is based in Belfort, France. Roque, 19, has about two months to perfect her sugar skills before she needs to make a sugar piece extraordinaire at the World Skills bakery competition in Kazan, Russia. The Richmond resident is fresh off a national win in Halifax, N.S., where she went head-tohead with another Canadian baker-in-training at the Skills Canada national competition. She created six items over two days and eventually beat her competitor for a spot to the world championship. The recent post-secondary national competition gave her a good taste of what it will be like competing internationally. For the national competition, Roque trained five days a week, up to 10 hours a day, for three months with her Vancouver Community College instructor, Wolfgang Dauke, perfecting her timing and technique. Roque said she was running on adrenalin,

rarely taking breaks, eating while working. “When you don’t think about it, you’re fine,” she said. On the first day of the national competition, Roque had to make two identical marzipan figurines, eight petit fours — small bite-sized cakes — and four plated desserts. For the latter, she made a platter with rose peach semi-freddo, a pistachio buttermilk sponge, peach raspberry coulis and chocolate soil.
She recently competed at a national baking competition (far left). Karmen Leong photo
On the second day, Roque had to make a 10 moulded bonbons, two entremets and a chocolate statue. The theme at the Halifax baking competition was street art and graffiti, and Roque’s baking had splashes of (fake) spray paint and tagging. Roque had run through the twoday competitions about seven times. She was more nervous leading up to the competition, but once she got there she calmed down. “I felt more confident than I expected,” she said. While creating her pieces, she was just a couple feet away from crowds who were watching. Roque just kept telling herself to keep her head down and not slow down. But baking in front of the crowd, despite some people
asking for free samples, kept her on task. “If I know people are watching, it forces me to be aware of everything I’m doing,” she said. She also knew the culinary competitors were close by watching as well. Roque felt both she and her competitor from Toronto were fairly evenly matched and during the competition, she didn’t know whether she would win. The theme for the world championships is Formula One Grand Prix Racing, but the pastries they are expected to make still smack of “old-school techniques.” She will have to make 20 hand-piped and hand-dipped chocolates, two marzipan figurines, a two-tiered buttercream cake, petit fours, a plated dessert and the final item: the sugar piece. “They’re going to throw curve balls at us,” she said about the upcoming competition. “Each task has a mystery element.” That
might be a surprise ingredient they have to use or a special piece of equipment. There will be 24 competitors from around the world, but Roque knows she is facing youth who have been training to be pastry chefs since the age of 15. Roque didn’t start full-time training until her Grade 12 year, studying part-time at Eric Hamber secondary in Vancouver while doing her Youth Train in Trades program at Vancouver Community College. After graduation, she has completed her second Industry Training Authority (ITA) training level and has been working fulltime. She has now cut back on her hours at her job at Chez Christophe in Burnaby while training for competitions. The next two months will be intense training – especially focusing on her sugar skills – to prepare for the Aug. 22-27 in Russia.

FALSE ALARM AT SCHOOL at Richmond-News.com
Kids’ book feeds others Three Grade 7 students have published a book, in aid of the Richmond Food Bank. The students, Nate Bergeron, Jasmine Allen and Didier Mazerolle, attend École des Navigateurs, a small Francophone school right in the heart of Richmond. As part of their English studies, they have managed to publish a book on Amazon and all of their class is involved in sales, marketing and promotion.
The project is raising the students’ awareness that people need food banks all year round, not just at special times of the year. Their short story, “The Fruit Salad Chronicles,” costs $4.99 on Amazon.ca, with all proceeds going to the food bank.

Pickleball building momentum
Newly formed association hopes to see permanent courts in the city Mark Booth MBOOTH@RICHMOND-NEWS.COM
Pickleball is one of the fastest growing sports in North America and now a group of keen players in Richmond have formed their own association to help the game become even more established in the city. So far in 2019, Pickleball B.C. has seen a surge in membership from 3,500 to nearly 5,000 players. The sport will be showcased when Richmond hosts the 55+ B.C. Games in 2020. “Pickleball can be played by players of all ages and abilities. It is popular among seniors as it can be less taxing physically when compared to other racquet sports,” explained Ed Wong. “The rules are simple and easy for beginners to learn. It can develop into a quick, fast-paced, competitive game for experienced players.” Wong is part of an avid group that has created the Richmond Pickleball Association. It’s is still in its infant stages but already has about 100 players interested in becoming members.
BE A PART OF SUMMER #AtTheNat FRI, JUNE 14
Currently, the game is mostly played at community centres throughout the city, using portable nets. About 50 percent of the old lacrosse box located at South Arm Park has been dedicated to outdoor pickleball but is seldom used with no netting, fencing and a bumpy playing surface. The association is hoping Richmond follows the lead of other nearby cities, such as Delta, that now has dedicated outdoor pickleball courts. At Memorial Park in Ladner, an old lacrosse box has been converted into three pristine courts. “We are very lucky. Our mayor came out here during the election campaign and I gave him my pitch how this sport keeps people active and out of the hospital. He lived up to his promise and everyone was on board with it,” explained Peter Darvill of the Delta Pickleball Association. “This is the healthiest sport and anybody can play it. You get four people of the same level and it’s a whole lot of fun.” The Richmond Pickleball group has already had a preliminary discussion with the city. The initial step is identifying potential under-utilized tennis courts that could be converted over to pickleball. Eight pickleball courts could fit into
two regulation size tennis courts. “We will be reporting back to them with potential sites,” said Wong. “Basically (the city) said they will not be giving up any green space to do it.” The association says dedicated courts will take the sport to the next level within the city. Lessons and promotional campaigns could be launched, tournaments planned and, most importantly, pickleball would have a permanent presence. “It would give us consistency too,” added Sandra Sequeira, another keen player in the city. “You are sharing floor time with other user groups in community centres so it’s not available all the time.” Darvill says the added exposure of their Memorial Park location has done wonders for the Delta membership. “We use to be tucked away where nobody can see us. Now cars are driving by and slowing down to take look. They realize they can play this sport too so they pay their $20 (membership) and come out,” said Darvill. “It’s a very easy sport to get better at and it’s not a game where you need to be a superstar.”

Rogers crowned NCAA champion Richmond hammer throw standout celebrates her 20th birthday with huge win in Texas Mark Booth MBOOTH@RICHMOND-NEWS.COM
Camryn Rogers has concluded her sophomore year at CalBerkeley University in spectacular fashion — capturing the women’s hammer throw event at the NCAA Championships in Austin, Texas on Thursday night. The Richmond native, who celebrates her 20th birthday today, opened the competition with a career-best throw of 69.99 metres. That mark was a personal best and closed in on her stated goal of cracking 70m in a competition this year. However, that mark also raised the standard of the competition as nine student-athletes set personal or season bests on the day, including six that made the final.
her in a commanding lead and led her to the national championship. She had to wait out some quality competition over the final three rounds in what was possibly the best hammer throw competition in NCAA history. Second place finisher Erin Reese from Indiana State had a better mark than any other second place finisher at a NCAA Championship and the same held true for places three through eight. Rogers’ conference rival — Alyssa Wilson from UCLA — finished third. Rogers also set a host of records and earned prominent placing on some impressive lists. She recorded the seventh-best hammer throw in NCAA history, and sixth-best at a NCAA Championship event.
However, the Kajaks standout and reigning U20 world champion was locked in and had an advantage as she held the lead heading into the finals.
She also recorded the best mark in the country this year. She headed to Texas with plenty of momentum after winning the Pac-12 Championship and NCAA West Regional — breaking her school and personal best marks along the way.
On her fourth throw, the McMath graduate took it to another level as she threw 71.50m. That mark put
