some Tips for The eClipse

POCO CAR SHOW

DIANE STRANDBERG Tri-CiTy News

Much of North America is expected to be captivated by the scene of a solar eclipse this Monday but an expert warns against looking directly at the sun.

Karl Miller, past president of the Vancouver Centre, Royal Astronomical Society of Canada, suggests people make pinhole cameras from paper or boxes or come down to Science World when the eclipse happens between 9 a.m. and noon Monday where there will be special equipment for viewing. see EYE DAMAGE, page 15

Vandals wreak havoc at PoMo hall City officials say cleanup & repairs will cost $10,000 DIANE STRANDBERG Tri-CiTy News

A late-night vandalism spree at Old Orchard Hall has

cost Port Moody taxpayers $10,000 in cleanup costs and shut down two programs for children for three days while contractors clean up the mess.

Port Moody Police say the suspects got into the main floor of the building through a rear patio door, grabbed three fire extinguishers and sprayed

fire retardant throughout the main room.

They are now looking for the culprits and are asking for information from those who may have observed something suspicious between the hours of 5 p.m. Sunday, Aug. 13 and 7 a.m. Monday, Aug. 14.

The hall is located in close

proximity to Old Orchard Park and popular walking trails.

“Police are looking for anyone that may have observed anything suspicious in the area during that time frame,” spokesperson Sgt. Travis Carroll stated in a press release.

Ron Higo, Port Moody’s

general manager of community services, says its one of the worst cases of vandalism he’s seen in his 20 years in charge of the city’s parks department.

“It was definitely an act of mischief and with no idea of the consequences,” Higo said.

CAR FREE DAY

Leave the keys at home this weekend as Port Moody celebrates Car-Free Day. The city will close St. Johns Street between Douglas and Moody streets from noon until 7 p.m., making way for live music, food and family-friendly activities.

PORT MOODY

Is Rocky Point Park too beloved?

Event bookings rise significantly at PoMo green space

PARK WORK

How the city’s nine parks staff keeps Rocky Point Park and other Port Moody green spaces running: • remove solid waste three times a day; • clean washrooms three times a day; • pick up litter three times a day; • cut the grass weekly; • inspect the playground monthly; • irrigate, fertilize, aerate and seed the turf annually; • and maintain the pier, picnic tables, benches, sidewalks, spray park as required.

MARIO BARTEL Tri-CiTy News

When Jamie Cuthbert was growing up, Rocky Point Park was a neighbourhood destination almost nobody outside Port Moody knew about.

“It was always our own little secret,” said Cuthbert, who is still in the park 20 years later as the owner of Rocky Point Kayak and Rocky Point Ice Cream.

But the park isn’t a secret anymore.

Last year the city booked 159 events at Rocky Point. They included public functions like RibFest and the Canada Day celebrations that each attracted 40,000 to 45,000 people, along with smaller private functions, picnics at the shelter, concerts on the performance stage and charity runs.

This year, there have already been 109 bookings up until July.

And the arrival of SkyTrain service at the nearby Moody Centre station is making it easier for people from around Metro Vancouver to get to the park. During July’s RibFest, the station saw 60% more users pass through the fare gates on the Saturday of the event than on a typical Saturday, and 80% more on the Sunday.

That easy access by transit is breaking down one of the controls that used to keep the park from getting too overcrowded: it’s lack of parking.

“Parking isn’t the barrier it used to be,” said Port Moody Mayor Mike Clay. “There’s other ways for people to get to the park.”

And they’re coming.

Cuthbert said the amount of

MARIO BARTEL/THE TRI-CITY NEWS

Jaimie Cuthbert relaxes before another busy day at Rocky Point Kayaks in Port Moody’s Rocky Point Park. He says the park has become infinitely busier in the 20 years he’s rented kayaks and operated Rocky Point Ice Cream. people using the park 20 years ago when he first set up shop was about 15% of the current number of visitors enjoying its myriad of amenitie, like the boat launch, swimming pool, water park, performance stage, skate park and walking trails, not to mention the spectacular ocean and mountain views across and down Moody Inlet.

“It’s such a beautiful setting,” Clay said. “It highlights what our city is. It brings together everything we’re about. To me

it’s the epitome of what a community park should be.”

But with the adjacent Flavelle Mill property slated for redevelopment to a mixed-use, urban neighbourhood that could be home to up to 7,000 people and Moody Centre poised to become an urban town centre that would bring another 3,000 people into the park’s proximity, keeping it a community treasure will be a challenge.

“Obviously people who live

here get frustrated if they think it’s full of people coming from outside the city,” Clay said.

“The challenge is how do you manage that.”

One way would be to make the park bigger.

Flavelle Oceanfront Development’s proposal for redeveloping the mill site would dedicate almost a quarter of its 11.9 acres to park and open public space, including an extension of the boardwalk to connect it to Rocky Point.

To the east, the city has been eyeing the pockets of industrial properties along the north side of Murray Street for years.

Clay said the city won’t allow any rezoning or redevelopment of that side of the street, so with few options for owners looking to sell, they’ll eventually have to negotiate with the city. Then the city will have to decide how to integrate those properties into the park.

“What do we make of that space and how do we activate

it?” Clay said. “You have to be constantly evaluating it.”

Making people aware of Port Moody’s other parks would be another way to relieve pressure on Rocky Point.

“I think we’re underutilizing a lot of neighbourhood parks,” said Clay, adding the city could do a better job of steering community groups that want to hold events in Rocky Point to explore other options.

“We have a lot of passive park in Port Moody and we have to make them more attractive for them to be used.”

As a businessman whose livelihood — and that of the 70 people he employs — comes from the park, Cuthbert said he loves how popular and busy Rocky Point has become. But as a resident, he also knows the frustration of not being able to find a parking spot or an unpopulated patch of grass on a sunny, summer weekend.

“Everyone wants to be where the action is,” Cuthbert said. “But the place is still pretty awesome.”

Developer buys PoMo mobile home park New owner plans to build 235 units on 1.7-acre parcel MARIO BARTEL

The Tri-CiTy News

A mobile home community with 17 pads in Port Moody has been sold to a developer.

Nicola Wealth Management Ltd., a Vancouver-based real estate management company, said in a statement it acquired

the 1.7-acre property at 3370 Dewdney Trunk Rd. in partnership with Vancouver developer PC Urban Properties Co. They plan to build a rental apartment building with approximately 235 units.

The site is a short walk from the Inlet Centre SkyTrain station and is designated for multi-family residential development in Port Moody’s official community plan, according to the sales brochure produced by realtor Colliers International.

But Al Kemp, the executive director of the Manufactured Home Park Owners’ Association, said the sale and planned redevelopment of the property represents another loss in the Lower Mainland for an increasingly endangered option of affordable home ownership.

“In some of the urban areas, there are some parks that have been sold for redevelopment,” said Kemp, who represents about 375 mobile home park owners in British

Columbia. “The economics become obvious.”

Kemp said while the price of owning a detached singlefamily home in the Lower Mainland is now more than $1 million, a brand new 1,500 sq. ft. manufactured home with two bathrooms and modern appliances and fixtures can still be purchased and placed in a park for $250,000 to 300,000.

More importantly, said Kemp, many of the parks have become communities where residents take root for a decade or more.

“If you’re in a condo, you might know the person next door or across the hall,” Kemp said. “But in a lot of manufactured home communities they have an annual garage sale, barbecues, it’s a whole different sense of home.”

Kemp said as urban communities face pressure to build more density to create affordable housing, the owners of mobile home parks are in an uphill battle for survival.

“Cities look askance at manufactured home com-

munities,” Kemp said. “It’s one of our challenges to convince them this is a niche of affordable housing, but it doesn’t get looked at that way.”

Under provincial legislation enacted in 2002, park owners who intend to redevelop must provide residents 12 months notice and compensation of 12 months rent for their pad space.

Kemp said relocating a manufactured home isn’t easy, as the vacancy rate at existing parks in the province is about half of one pad.

Ron Higo, general manager of community services for the city of Port Moody, at Old Orchard Hall, which was vandalized Sunday night. Police are looking for information from members of the public.

VANDALISM

Kids camps closed as result of damage continued from front page

The discharge from the fire extinguishers covered everything in the upper floor of the hall, including the beams and the light fixtures and the contractor had to bring in two hydraulic lifts so workers could properly clean the facility.

“It was enough to coat the inside of the building. It’s on all the flat surfaces, the win-

dow, on the floor… there was fairly extensive cleaning to get it all done.”

In all, it took four people three days to clean up the mess, resulting in the cancellation of a pre-school activity and a week long children’s dance camp.

It’s not likely the dance camp, which had five children enrolled, will be re-scheduled before school starts again,

Higo said.

A caretaker is usually on site but has been away because the residence is undergoing renovations.

In Steve Eglsaer’s back yard, half a dozen classic cars are parked in a semi-circle.

The Port Coquitlam father of two displays them proudly and enjoys talking about the hard work he’s put into restoring the vehicles — from stripping them and welding on new parts to customizing them with unique features.

Eglsaer has spent thousands of dollars and countless hours making them just right, even consulting with gear heads around the world on specifications.

Much of his advice comes from mechanics and auto body experts who have or now are working in the television and film industry.

That’s because Eglsaer’s cars aren’t just being retrofitted; they’re being overhauled to look just like they did on the TV programs and movies he watched as a child.

He spent $7,000 on it — then a few bucks more — to make it look just like the Starsky and Hutch version. Other replicas soon followed: • the famous orange “General Lee” ’69 Dodge Charger used in the Dukes of Hazzard (complete with the “01” on the doors and a Confederate flag for plates); • Sheriff Rosco P. Coltrane’s patrol vehicle (a 1977 Plymouth Fury) from the

same TV series; • a brown ’77 Pontiac LeMans à la Sheriff Buford T. Justice’s car from Smokey and the Bandit; • a black GMC ’83 van like the one on the A-Team; • and a black ’82 Pontiac Trans Am to match KITT, the sports car used by the actor David Hasselhoff on Knight Rider.

Parked behind them, the Montreal native has got more on the go including:

• a ’63 Volkswagen Beetle, which he’ll trick out to look like Herbie the Love Bug; • a ’77 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am as per Smokey and the Bandit; • and an ’81 GMC truck to replicate the Fall Guy vehicle, which Eglsaer has mounted on the Iconic Carz tow truck that pays tribute to Jerry Reed (the Snowman).

Eglsaer, 46, said many parts are more than 40 years old and are difficult to track down.

But when he takes the finished products out for a day spin or a car show, the reactions from passersby are always the same.

“They reconnect people with fond memories,” he said, noting honks, waves and photos are common while travelling.

At show ’n shines, guests are eager to touch the past and relay their stories.

“I don’t rope off the cars,” he said. “I want people to experience the same joy I have in seeing them.”

Eglsaer tells a story about how his KITT allowed a father to rebuild a relationship with his estranged son; the pair had watched the show together and Eglsaer’s vehicle prompted the dad to bury the hatchet.

Besides charity fundraisers and special events, he publicly displays his replicas about four

JUNIOR MOUNTIES

Cadets at the Coquitlam RCMP’s seventh annual Junior Mounties Police Academy were put through their paces on Wednesday at the Poirier Sport and Leisure Complex. The week-long camp gives kids aged nine to 15 a chance to get a taste of police work, including taking fingerprints, investigating a crime scene, apprehending a bad guy and putting on a uniform. Clockwise from top left: Cadets work their way through a tangle of police tape during the uniform race, then have to hop through another weave of tape. A young cadet gets help putting on his uniform. Naiya Yu, 9, makes sure her hat is on straight.

OUR OPINION

INGRID RICE

Minimum wage

T

he new NDP government’s cautious, go-slow approach on implementing the $15 minimum wage is not likely to win favour from anyone.

Workers will be less than thrilled at having to wait another four years to see the full roll out of the wage hike, while the BC Chamber of Commerce has already said the hike will hurt the economy and should be done even more slowly.

Many economists are saying the extra dough paid to workers will be spent in the marketplace and thereby benefit local stores.

On the other hand, small businesses say their margins are already tight and they will have to lay off workers.

Alberta is hiking its minimum wage to $15 per hour next year and Ontario plans to boost it to $15 by 2019. B.C. would then be a laggard in this area.

Truth be told, a higher minimum wage is just one of many challenges faced by businesses today, including the rise of online shopping, requiring nimble footing by all.

WHAT’S YOUR OPINION? THIS WEEK’S QUESTION:

DO YOU SUPPORT INCREASING THE MINIMUM WAGE TO $15 PER HOUR?

LAST WEEK’S QUESTION:

ARE PEOPLE ARE GETTING THE MESSAGE ABOUT BEARPROOFING THEIR HOMES AND BUSINESSES?

LAST WEEK: YES 25% / NO 75%

PROVINCIAL POLITICS

Dine with deputy ministers for $275 a plate I

t had to have been lost in the mail.

It’s the only plausible explanation.

I can’t imagine any other reason for not receiving an invitation to at least one of the “by invitation only” dinners held since 2013 with B.C.’s deputy ministers.

The annual cash for access event is hosted by the B.C. Chamber of Commerce.

After all, it might seem a little crass for the BC Liberal party to host DERMOD TRAVIS private fundraising dinners with deputy ministers, even by B.C.’s Wild West standards.

There’s no mistaking their purpose, though.

The Chamber’s 2014 six-page invitation read, in part: “This private, invitation-only event creates an ideal forum for dialogue and discussion between guests and leaders of British Columbia’s public service. The evening consists of a reception and a dinner, where guests are seated directly with the deputy minister of their choice. This is an unparallelled opportunity to express your perspective and concerns directly to B.C.’s deputy ministers.”

No ambiguity there. And all for $275 a plate.

Who were among the lucky few to be given the chance to rent the ear of a deputy minister over dinner?

Guest lists don’t seem to be readily available online, but someone — bless their heart — hired a photographer for the 2013 dinner at the Empress Hotel’s Crystal Ballroom.

The by invitation only crowd barely filled half the ballroom.

The comradery between lobbyists and deputy ministers shines through in the photos.

Guests included a veritable who’s who of B.C.’s lobbying industry. Hill+Knowlton lobbyist Steve Vander Wal chose to have dinner with deputy minister of health Stephen Brown. At the time, Vander Wal’s clients included Eli Lilly, AbbVie and Merck Canada.

Michael Cunningham, a consultant lobbyist for Purdue Pharma — makers of OxyContin — was at the dinner. The former vice president of government relations at Telus, Dave Cunningham, chose John Dyble — then-deputy minister to former Christy Clark — as his dinner date.

In addition to Spectra, the energy industry was well represented with lobbyists from the Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers, the B.C. LNG Alliance, Woodfibre LNG, the Independent Power Producers of B.C., Imperial Oil, ConocoPhillips Canada and Cenovus Energy.

Kinder Morgan found time to squeeze the dinner in between the

BC Liberal party’s annual leader’s golf tournament in September and Clark’s Burnaby homecoming dinner in November. The golf tournament and homecoming dinner all the more surprising because the company made clear in its 2013 Trans Mountain Pipeline application to the National Energy Board that the company’s code of ethics forbids it from donating to political parties.

Former CEO of the B.C. Chamber of Commerce, John Winter, appears in a number of photos. Winter headed up Future Prosperity for B.C., a group that may have spent up to $2 million on an anti-NDP campaign in advance of this year’s provincial election. The group went dark just prior to the writ dropping, with Winter telling the Globe and Mail at the time: “We feel we’ve done what we can do with what we had, without coming under the scrutiny of the Elections Act. Why would that be nefarious?”

The 2014 invitation included a shopping list of deputy ministers. At least 12 current deputy ministers are on that list, including Richard Fyfe, then and still deputy Attorney General.

They say B.C. stands for bring cash. Maybe that’s because everything seems to be for sale, including eating with the deputy minister of your choice.

Let’s hope the 2016 dinner was the last supper.

ROAD SAFETY

Other options available to improve traffic safety at Lougheed corridor The Editor Re: “Rail projects offer hope for safety improvements on Tri-City roads” (The Tri-City News, Aug. 9).

The proposal for a $30-million overpass to carry Colony Farm Road over the CP Rail industrial spur is extravagant.

A less costly alternative would be to upgrade the existing access road off the Mary Hill Bypass to provide all-direction access to the regional park.

Another thrifty alternative would be a new access road off Shaughnessy Street on the existing dike, to a new two-lane bridge over the Coquitlam River with the road continuing west to tie into the existing parking lot.

Other bad road-rail crossings that were overlooked in the Fraser River Trade Area planning study were a Braid Street overpass of the CP industrial spur at Brunette Avenue in New Westminster

DIANE STRANDBERG/THE TRI-CITY NEWS

The Gateway Transportation Collaborative Forum, made up of federal and provincial ministries of transportation as well as TransLink, Port Metro Vancouver and the Greater Vancouver Gateway Council, released a study last fall that proposes a series of road and rail improvements to facilitate rail traffic, including an overpass over the tracks at Pitt River Road and Lougheed Highway to eliminate the crossing. and the Cariboo Road overpass of the double-track CN mainline at Government Street in Burnaby.

BIZ IMPACTS

The Editor Re: “Rail projects offer hope for safety improvements on Tri-City roads” (The Tri-City News, Aug. 9).

I was interested to note that although concern was expressed about the effect that these projects might have on Colony Farm Regional Park, nothing was said about

the equally great effect on the businesses and residences along Kingsway Avenue and Westwood Street, which will either be displaced or devalued by such massive road changes.

These are not just commuter routes but shopping areas that we use on a daily basis.

Speaking as one who lives near the rail tracks, I can’t say I’m enthusiastic about the prospect of a doubling of the tracks for increased rail traffic either.

Lynn Barrow Port Coquitlam

HALTING HIGH RISES

The Editor, Re. “Highrise limits lifted by Coquitlam council” (The Tri-City News, Aug. 4).

Your story on this public hearing ended thus: “… council approved a highrise halt while further consultation could take place.”

Exactly. Back then, while on city council, I voted for that halt for “further consultation.”

No real consultation occurred.

Planning began by re-reading the public’s comments on the one highrise approved — the one that led to the halt.

Lots of internal discussion took place and, once a proposed plan was together, a flyer was sent to those whose properties were directly affected. Not the neighbours soon to live in the shadow of new towers, considerably higher than the one that prompted the ban. Not those soon to be affected by the increased traffic or by the loss of barely affordable rental housing.

Consultation was extensive when the Austin Heights Neighbourhood Plan was created in 2011. The change now proposed and passed deserved the same opportunities for public input.

ECLIPSE TIPS

Eye damage a concern for those gazing at the stars continued from front page

“You could be doing damage to your eye,” Miller said, “and if you look through a telescope it [the damage] is almost instantaneous.”

Miller will be at Science World Monday morning with other members of the society, giving interested visitors a peek at the eclipse through safety glasses or telescopes.

Sunglasses won’t give any protection, either.

A quick Google search offers directions for pinhole cameras, but Miller said the easiest is to prick a small hole in a large piece of cardboard then place a second piece of white card or paper on the ground and hold the first above it.

Stand with the sun behind you to see a projected image on the ground sheet. You may have to move around to see the best reflection.

Don’t be disappointed it you don’t see a total eclipse: That’s because we’re too far from the epicentre. The most we will see is an 86% totality when the sun is covered by the moon.

It’s been almost 40 years since Miller saw a total eclipse, an exciting moment in 1979 when he visited Winnipeg for the experience.

Calling it a “complex dance between the earth, the moon and the sun,” Miller said. “It’s an experience you don’t want to miss.”

He described the experience

Tri-City astronomy buffs will be able to see a partial solar eclipse, where the moon covers approximately 86% of the sun, on Monday, Aug. 21, beginning at roughly 9 a.m.

But don’t look at the sun directly, instead, make a pinhole camera or attend an event at Science World where there will be special equipment available.

WHAT YOU’LL SEE • 9:10 a.m., partial eclipse begins • 10:21 a.m. maximum eclipse • 11:30 a.m. partial eclipse ends

SUBMITTED PHOTO

as eerie, when the sky darkens, the birds stop singing and the surrounding area appears to be caught between dusk and dawn. The total eclipse lasts only a few minutes, but Miller recalled how the hair stood up on the back of his neck, even though he knew what to expect.

“It’s no wonder that the original people in the early days before we had these communication capabilities would think the sun was being swallowed by some dragon.”

Only a narrow swath of North America, including an approximately 110 km-wide band in Oregon, the site of many viewing locations, will see the total eclipse.

Although solar eclipses are common, this is the first time in nearly 40 years that North America has had a front row seat to such an event. The next eclipse is expected on April 8, 2024.

LONG TABLE DINNER

Local produce on the menu at Divas dinner Event will raise funds for Power of Produce Club DIANE STRANDBERG Tri-CiTy News

Summer’s bounty is being plucked from local gardens and farms just as the second annual Divas in Denim Long Table Dinner gets underway.

On Wednesday, Aug. 30, approximately 200 guests will dine outdoors on locally produced food at a secret location.

They’ll taste the best that local farms, wineries and breweries have to offer all cooked up by local chefs.

Tabitha McLaughlin, manager of the Coquitlam Farmers Market, says the long table dinner will raise funds for the Power of Produce Club (POP), in which five-to 12-year-olds learn how to choose, pay for

Kwikwetlem First Nation Development of Coquitlam IR2 Public Forum: Update Wednesday, August 30th, 6pm-8pm Terry Fox Theatre 1260 Riverwood Gate, Port Coquitlam The Kwikwetlem First Nation (KFN) is providing a second open house/update regarding the development of Coquitlam Indian Reserve #2 at Pitt River Road, the Kwikwetlem Development Site. The forum will include a presentation and an expert panel for an open question and answer session. The forum is open to anyone interested in the development, but will be focused on addressing the concerns of the residents of Port Coquitlam, and in particular those surrounding the project. For more, or updated information, please visit: www.kwikwetlem.com/KDS.htm

food choices,” McLaughlin explained.

By participating in POP during the farmers market on

Sundays, children are learning their food doesn’t come from a store, a freezer or a box.

Approximately 175 children

have signed up for POP and some 20% show up at the market every week for a fun activity.

“They get to go meet the farmer who grows their favourite fruit or vegetable and have a little conversation,” said McLaughlin.

As well, they get to taste the produce and learn how to cook it properly. There’s even a financial literacy component where children are given a $3 token to buy something and have to work together to make the most of their purchase.

McLaughlin said more people are supporting local farmers and appreciating locally grown food and children who come to appreciate the food they eat will more likely support agriculture in B.C. But funds are needed to keep the POP program going.

The long table dinner is being hosted by prominent

local women, also known as The Divas, made up of Selina Robinson (CoquitlamMaillardville MLA), Diana Dilworth, (Port Moody councillor) and Polly Krier, the event organizer.

And the location is secret to add a little spice to the event, McLaughlin said.

One of the surprising outcomes of last year’s dinner was how much people enjoyed sitting down with strangers and talking about food.

McLaughlin said she expects the same vibe to take place at this year’s event — with the added excitement of not knowing where it will be until the last minute.

She suggests participants should come prepared for the weather, but the dress is casual: a white shirt and jeans.

SPOOKY ROLE

A student at Port Coquitlam’s Kilmer elementary appears in a new TV series called Ghost Wars.

Allison James, 10, portrays Isabel McGrath Dufresne in the drama/fantasy/horror show that’s set in a remote Alaskan town overrun by paranormal forces. Hollywood actors Vincent D’Onofrio and musician Meat Loaf are in eight episodes. It will air on the NBC Universal SyFy channel in the United States and has been picked up by Netflix.

“This is her first television series and a big role to start out in,” James’ mother, Kathleen, said in an email, “but [she] has been rising to the challenge and loving it.”

Previously, James was the lead in the Littlest Angel with Theatrix Youtheatre and appeared with such Metro Vancouver companies as Theatre Under the Stars and Gateway Theatre.

The Vancity Maillardville branch recently deposited an Envirofund grant for $20,000 to the Fresh Roots Urban Farming Society to pull local invasive species.

Paul Holden will chair the new executive team of the Douglas College Foundation board of directors.

At a recent annual general meeting, the board elected Holden — the president and CEO of the Burnaby Board of Trade, who has a background in publishing and media — to oversee the organization.

Financial advisor Nick Cheng was named the board vice-chair while Wendy Lindvik, a branch manager for HSBC, takes the position of treasurer for the upcoming year and former Coquitlam city councillor Neal Nicholson is the secretary.

The past chair is Darlene Hyde, the board chair for Westminster Savings Credit Union.

“This year, we are shifting our focus to strengthening and deepening the foundation’s relationships with our donors and volunteers,” said foundation executive director Leanne Poon, in a news release. “We are incredibly grateful for our new executive.

They are providing their expert advice as business and community leaders to increase the Foundation’s community profile and increase philanthropic support for our students, programs and the college.”

The foundation started in 1985 and helps with student financial aid at the college, which has a campus in Coquitlam.

Shade trees also provide a great source of entertainment for kids, whether it be branches for swings, a location for tree houses or just plain climbing! Finally, they provide a nice retreat on a sweltering afternoon!

Now, if you’re still not convinced about huge shade trees, consider a slow-growing species or some of the new compact columnar varieties such as the beautifully fall coloured Acer rubrums like ‘Armstrong’ and ‘Bowhall’. If it’s leaves you’re worried about, some oak varieties keep their leaves all fall and winter. If insects are concerning you, gingkos, liquidambars and liriodendrons are all free of pests. Many shade trees have very fibrous root systems which are quite safe even on tiny lots. When you weigh the pros and cons, I think it’s fairly evident that shade trees are a welcome addition, not only to our homes, but also to the environment. When is the best time to plant them?

ATHLETICS

Tri-Cities’ athletes picking up the hammer Coquitlam women finished one-two at recent Canada Games MARIO BARTEL

THE TRI-CITY NEWS

The 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo might just end up being hammer time in the TriCities.

Two of Canada’s top young female hammer throwers are from the Tri-Cities and they’re on track to make a run for the biggest competition of their athletic careers.

Chanell Botsis, of Coquitlam, and Kaila Butler, who’s from Port Coquitlam, just finished one-two in the women’s hammer throw at the Canada Games in Winnipeg.

They’re both 19 years old, attending college in the United States on athletic scholarships and they’ll be at the beginning of their peak competitive years when the next Summer Olympics come around.

Botsis, a Dr. Charles Best grad who’s studying biomedical engineering and competing at the University of Connecticut, says the technical aspects of the sport means hammer throwers progress more slowly than athletes in other sports that rely on strength, power or agility.

“You’re always learning,” she said. “It’s a process to fix it and make it perfect.”

It was that technical element of learning how to wind the four kilogram steel ball attached to the end of a cable around and over her head to a point where it can be hurled for distance that first attracted Butler to the sport. Although there wasn’t much distance in her first six months of throwing after she set aside the discus and shot put she had been

MARIO BARTEL/THE TRI-CITY NEWS

Chanell Botsis, left, and Kaila Butler finished one-two in the hammer throw at the Canada Summer Games in Winnipeg. The Coquitlam athletes are both entering their second year at U.S. universities on athletic scholarships and they have their sights set on eventually competing in the Summer Olympics as soon as Tokyo in 2020. hurling at Terry Fox secondary school.

“I fell down a lot,” said Butler, who’s going into her second year at Bowling Green University in Ohio. “It was frustrating, but I didn’t mind falling down.”

And when all the elements of entering the ring, winding the hammer to gain momentum and the strength to hurl it finally came together, Butler said she was hooked.

Botsis’ first throw went all of 18 metres. Six years later, her

iles reaating Sm Cre years for over 30

personal best is 60.08 metres.

Butler, who’s only been throwing the hammer for three years, has attained 58.72 metres.

The two young women first competed against each other at the 2015 district high school track and field championships at Percy Perry Stadium.

And while they now only cross paths occasionally because their schools are in different conferences, they still keep tabs on each other’s progress.

It’s the nature of the sport.

“The throwing community is pretty tight knit,” said Butler, who trains locally with the Maple Ridge Dynamo throwing club. “You keep in touch.”

“It’s nice when you know people,” said Botsis, who’s affiliated with the Richmond Kajaks track club. “You can cheer for each other.”

Both athletes concede making the step from competing at the high school and club level to US college athletics has presented new challenges like balancing school work with a

training regime that eats up a few hours of every day. As soon as Butler returns to Ohio this week and Botsis goes back to school at the end of the month, they’ll be hitting the weight room to prepare for their return to the throwing ring by the end of September.

And the process of learning, honing their technique to be able to achieve the perfect throw, begins anew.

“You can really feel it when your technique is coming together,” said Botsis.

“You can tell from the first wind when you’re going to have a good throw,” said Butler.

“Every stage of your development you set a number” for a distance to achieve.

When asked whether there will be room for two female hammer throwers on Canada’s Olympic team when the number 2020 comes around, Butler smiles.

“Oh, there will be room for two of us,” she said.

BROADCASTING

Canucks’ new voice ready for the challenge Broadcaster formed his playby-play chops on Harbour Drive MARIO BARTEL

THE TRI-CITY NEWS

The new voice of the Vancouver Canucks has been doing hockey play-by-play for 24 years.

But Brendan Batchelor is only 28 years old.

Yeah, the Coquitlam native was that kid, providing running commentary when he was playing street hockey in the driveway of his parents’ home on Harbour Drive, or playing table hockey in the basement, or even NHL video games on the TV. On Monday those playful calls of his childhood paid off for Batchelor. Big time.

He was officially named as the lead play-by-play man for Canucks radio broadcasts on the team’s new radio home, Sportsnet 650. His colour commentator will be former Canucks’ goalie and Hockey Night in Canada analyst Corey Hirsch.

The new gig is the fulfillment of a lifelong dream that started when he’d emulate the voices he listened to; Jim Robson, John Shorthouse and Jim

Hughson.

“I was huge into hockey,” Batchelor said. “That was always my sport. You’d watch the games on TV and then go out and play them.”

It wasn’t until he was preparing to graduate from Dr.

Charles Best secondary school that Batchelor realized he might be able to turn his passion into his profession.

He eschewed a formative notion of becoming a lawyer and enrolled in the broadcasting program at BCIT. He

also began the long process of paying his dues by volunteering his winter evenings doing the public address announcements for the Burnaby Express and then following the team when it moved back to Coquitlam.

He also worked as an overnight producer for Team1040 and its various sister stations.

“It was all about getting experience,” Batchelor said. “I was working toward my dream, not resting on my laurels. I just wanted to get in on the ground

floor.”

In 2012, Batchelor became the play-by-play announcer for the BCHL’s Surrey Eagles.

The next year he climbed into the rafters at the Pacific Coliseum as the voice of the Vancouver Giants.

Stepping up to the Canucks is a huge progression for Batchelor’s career. But with it comes the pressure and expectation of a fiercely impassioned fan base.

In the weeks leading up to his first calls for the Canucks at the team’s Young Stars Classic in Penticton, Sept 8 to 11, Batchelor is busy learning the minute details about the players, especially the prospects, hitting other broadcasters up for guidance and getting familiar with his new partner, Hirsch.

“There’s definitely a learning curve,” Batchelor said. “But being a Canucks’ fan, you’re always in the know of what’s happening with the team.”

And while Batchelor has achieved his childhood dream, he’s not about to let himself become complacent. He knows the bar has been set pretty high by the voices that preceded him.

“I’ve got to put my head down, treat it the same way I’ve always treated play-by-play,” Batchelor said. “Let’s drop the puck.”
