For an event called the NewWestminster police 30th annual soccercamp, it’s surprising to hear Const. BruceBallingall describe what the week-longactivities at Queen’s Park are all about.

“It’s not about soccer if you thinkabout it,” he said. “It’s about fun, it’sabout making connections with the com-munity and seeing these kids have fun.… If they learn a little about playing soc-cer, that’s almost like a bonus.”

To illustrate his point, Ballingall tellsthe story of skiing at Big White in theInterior when a young man approachedhim.

“It was a kid who had attended soccercamp, and he just wanted to thank me

for treating him sogreat and makingthe week so fun,”said Ballingall.

That young manhad gone througha tough childhood,and the soccer

camp showed him that there was goodin the world, said Ballingall.

“He became a ski patroller at BigWhite, and I think he’s married withkids now,” said the officer known to kidsas Chicken Legs and to colleagues as theLegend.

“When you hear stories about howthis camp has really affected kids, yourealize that soccer is only a very smallpart of what this camp is all about.”

Ballingall has participated in everycamp since 1986 – he joined the NewWestminster force after a stint inWinnipeg – and the only person who hasmore camps to his credit is deputy policechief Dave Jones.

“I’ve been to 24 of these, and I don’tsee the day when I won’t be here,” saidJones. “It’s weird looking around andseeing that everybody is relatively newcompared to Bruce and myself.”

Jones has seen a lot in 30 years, andhe loves the look on the faces of the

younger officers when he tells themwhat the soccer camp was like in theearly days.

“When we had the camps at MercerStadium, they were three weeks long,and it was five-hour days (from 9 a.m. to

3 p.m. with a lunch break),” said Jones.“The first week, everybody was full of

enthusiasm, the second, it was still OK,but by the last week, everybody’s feelinglike the camp’s never going to end.”

Theresa McManus’s Blog

A blog about newsthat doesn’t always

fit in print

As the camps changed with the times,the focus changed from turning out bet-ter soccer players to turning out bettercitizens.

While the camp was never in jeopardyof closing, the police force did have dif-ficulty having enough officers to run athree-week-long camp.

“You have to remember that a lot ofguys use their time off to volunteer at thecamp, and to volunteer three weeks oftime is very hard,” said Jones.

And that’s why the camp became aweek-long camp, with the soccer beingsurrounded by an endless supply of funactivities that have little to do with thebeautiful game.

Det. Rob Boyd has participated in thelast eight camps, and he can’t believe thecamps were once three times longer.

“I can’t imagine how much work thatwould have been,” he said. “I’ve got fourkids, and two of them have gone throughit, but the other two still have a lot moreyears to do this.”

Boyd’s four children, Mennlee, 14,Bobby, 12, Jimmy, 4, and McKenna, 1, area big reason why Boyd participates in thecamp, and he couldn’t be prouder of theone who is his assistant coach.

“Bobby came to the camp for fouryears, and nowhe’s a second-yearcoach,” said Boyd.“On the first day, Ido lead, but by thesecond day, Bobbyis dong a lot more,and by the end, it’s

almost like he’s the head coach of oursquad.”

“It’s different being a coach,” saidBobby. “Being a player is a little funnerbecause being a coach, you have a lotmore responsibility and it’s a little moretiring.”

That’s a lesson that 10-year-old LliamMagee may learn next year.

With 10 as the cut-off age, Magee isattending his fifth and final soccer camp,but he expects to be back next year as anassistant coach.

“I’ve had a lot of fun doing this, andI do want to come back,” said Lliam,who couldn’t attend the last activities onFriday morning because he was goingwith his parents to Hawaii. “I think itwill be pretty fun to be a coach, so I hopethey accept me as a volunteer next year.”

On Wednesday, while kids leisurelykicked around their balls, the Air 1 heli-copter landed on the lower field, withpilot David Brolin eager to show all 320camp participants the latest and greatesttool in the police’s crime-fighting arsenal.

“All the kids love seeing the helicop-ter, and we love showing it off,” saidBrolin.

Even before Brolin showed up, thebig hit was the Tim Hortons coffee anddoughnuts that were handed out to allthe kids and volunteers – and some par-ents who needed their java fix.

“We couldn’t do this without our

sponsors,” said Sgt. Chris Mullin, one ofthe key organizers of the camp. “This isa community event that local businessessupport, and that’s why it’s so success-ful.”

Another key organizer is Const. ShariGulliver, who’s been at the camp for thepast 14 years.

“We start planning for everything inMarch, and everything starts comingtogether in April,” she said. “It has got-ten easier over the years, but there arealways things that come up.”

For example, this year’s complementof 320 kids is much younger than in pre-

vious years, with more of the four-, five-and six-year-old set than before.

Leading Team 1, Team Canada, is first-year-volunteer Roselle McQuillan.

“Now I know why I got Team 1,” shesaid with a hearty laugh. “Working withthe little ones is a lot of fun, but I can seethat it’s a lot more work with them thanthe 10-year-olds.”

By the time the camp ended on Fridayafternoon, each of the kids, along with aselect crew of about 25 volunteers, hadreceived the 30th anniversary commemo-rative medallion that the police servicehad specially made.

“Every five years, we give out medal-lions,” said Jones. “We had 350 made thisyear. All the kids get one, and we choosesome of the unsung volunteers to get theones that are left. With the volunteers, wemount them and we’ll present them at aceremony.”

And to think it’s only 51 more weeksuntil the 31st annual New Westminsterpolice soccer camp.

said Jim Alkins, projectdirector. “There will be aconsultation process.”

City administrator PaulDaminato said it was reallyimportant from city coun-cil’s point of view that allof the functions were main-tained on the site, includinga full-sized high school, atheatre and the track andfield facilities. The highschool would be built toaccommodate 1,800 stu-dents but would includethe ability to expand to afuture capacity of 2,600 stu-dents.

Alkins said the schooldistrict has been strugglingto find a way to accom-modate a secondary schoolwith a future capacity of2,600 students on the site.

The proposal wouldsee Massey Theatre beingreplaced with a perform-ing arts facility that’s inte-grated into the new second-ary school. The city and theschool district have agreedon some steps to minimizethe impacts of the closureof Massey Theatre whileconstruction takes place atthe site.

As part of that process,the city will engage theMassey Theatre Societyto operate the performingarts facility that will beincluded in the multi-usecivic facility on ColumbiaStreet until the new MasseyPerforming Arts Centre isready for occupancy. Theschool district will provide

the society with $10,000 amonth for up to 30 monthsto supplement revenuesfrom the time that MasseyTheatre is decommissioneduntil the new arts centre isready for occupancy.

While theMinistry ofEducation is pre-pared to fund a650-seat theatre forthe school, the citywould provideadditional fundsthat would allow itto be enhanced tobe a state-of-the-art community-based theatre.

“We are talk-ing around 1,000seats,” Daminato said.“That is a figure we havebeen working toward. Wewould like to have that dis-cussion with thetheatre society aswell.”

Daminato saidthe city believesthat a theatrewith about 1,000seats would fit aregional need andfunding wouldcome from thecity’s capital bud-get program. Thecity doesn’t havea cost estimate yet about itscontributions.

A public consultationprocess will get underwayshortly, but the city andschool district have alreadymet with the MasseyTheatre Society and the dis-

trict parent advisory coun-cil. Approval of the plan issubject to a public consulta-tion process.

In a letter to the schoolboard, Education MinisterMargaret MacDiarmid said

the “proposalappears to havemerit, in that itwould representan efficient use ofpublic lands avail-able for the newsecondary schooland would resultin a striking newperforming artsfacility” that’scapable of meet-ing the needs ofthe performing

arts community for muchof the 21st century. She’sencouraged by the boardof education’s commitment

to involve parentsin a public processand looks forwardto getting a fur-ther update oncethe results for thepublic consulta-tion are known.

Alkins said thegoal is to consultwith a number ofgroups in Augustand September.

Because ofphysical constraints on thehigh school site, Alkinssaid the school district hasa limited number of waysto advance the secondaryschool project. These wouldinclude renovating theexisting high school, build-

ing a smaller theatre at thesite and building a smallerhigh school to accommo-date a smaller footprint onthe site.

A complicating factorhas been the presence of ahistoric cemetery on part ofthe site.

Under the proposal,the city and school districtwould equally share in thecosts of design and con-struction of an appropriatememorial honour-ing citizens whowere previouslyinterred at theNew Westminsterpublic cemetery,the Chinese cem-etery and othercemeteries thatwere previouslylocated at the highschool site.

The proposalwould see a newhigh school and theatrebeing built in an area thatextends from the currentskate park toward the cor-ner of Eighth Avenue andEighth Street, in the areabehind Moody Park Arena.

“It was a very difficultnegotiation,” Daminatosaid. “It did take consider-able time. The end result iswe have something that canwork.”

Ministry of Education

staff indicated the project isthe “most complex schoolproject” they’ve worked on,Alkins said.

If the project proceedsas planned, constructionof a new John RobsonElementary School wouldtake place on the formerSt. Mary’s site. While that’sbeing built, planning wouldtake place regarding a mid-dle school at the currentJohn Robson site.

Phased con-struction of a newsecondary schoolwould likely berequired becausestudents wouldstill be attend-ing school whilea new secondaryschool is built.Construction onthe secondaryschool site couldpotentially take

place in 2013 or 2014.“That is the most aggres-

sive plan we can think of,”Alkins said.

The school district andcity are planning publicinformation sessions inearly September, followedby consultation and publicworkshops.

“It’s been a lengthy pro-cess, and the issues havebeen complex,” said MayorWayne Wright. “The pro-

posed plan will see allmajor components of thesecondary school site main-tained with a new highschool and state-of-the-art regional communityperforming arts centre, inaddition to new elementaryand middle schools, deliv-ered for the citizens of NewWestminster. We look for-ward to sharing this excit-ing concept with the com-munity and getting feed-back in the coming weeks.”

As part of the proposedplan, Mercer Stadiumwould be maintained at thesecondary school site and anew field would be added atthe St. Mary’s site. The citywould replace the Mercertrack with a new eight-lanesynthetic track and will fixMercer Stadium.

After consulting withthe community, the boardof education and city coun-cil will each consider thefeedback and determinewhether the proposed planshould move forward.

“We’ve been workinghard with the communityand the city for a long time.It’s great to see it pay offwith this agreement,” saidboard chair James Janzen.“We have 3,000 kids wait-ing for new schools and acommunity that’s been liv-ing with uncertainty.”

Mary Ann McKenzie’s children won’tget to attend a new secondary schoolin New Westminster, but she’s excitedfor students who will attend the futureschool.

McKenzie, chair of the parent advisorycouncil at New Westminster SecondarySchool, will be seeking feedback from herexecutive members about a plan to build anew high school on the New WestminsterSecondary School site that will includea new 1,000-seat performing arts centre.The proposal would require demolition ofMassey Theatre.

“I think people would agree this is thebest solution for a very bad situation,” shesaid. “The idea of a brand new 1,000-seatcommunity theatre in the high school isvery exciting.”

McKenzie noted that New WestminsterSecondary School has excellent band and

music programs that would benefit from anew theatre. While nobody wanted to losethe big theatre, she said the current pro-posal calls for a replacement for MasseyTheatre.

“We will finally get the new building,”she said about the longstanding need fora new high school. “It will be a trade-offon the theatre. It makes a lot ofsense.”

McKenzie said the programsthat make New WestminsterSecondary School a great placefor students will be included inthe new school. Similarly, shebelieves that the new theatre willaccommodate the programs thathave made Massey Theatre sopopular.

The New Westminster districtparent advisory council will alsobe seeking feedback and direc-tion from its members about Wednesday’sannouncement of a proposed plan toinclude a new theatre in the new second-ary school.

Paul Johansen, chair of the district parentadvisory council, said it is reassuring thatpublic consultation is a mandatory com-

ponent of the process and that its supportwill be required for the Neighbourhoodsof Learning project initiative.

“The decision to proceed with the planhinges on public support for the con-cept of including performing arts space aspart of the package of Neighbourhoods ofLearning programs to be accommodated

at the three new schools plannedfor New Westminster,” said apress release from the local parentgroups. “The Neighbourhoods ofLearning initiative, announcedby the province in 2009, enablescommunities to benefit from theco-location of education and com-munity services.”

McKenzie is encouraged thatthe provincial Neighbourhoodsof Learning program could pro-vide extra funding to create spacefor community programs such

as the UBC counselling centre, on-sitelicensed daycare, immigrant services and aproposed 1,000-seat community theatre.

“Over the next few weeks, we willconsult with our executive and generalmembers before endorsing the city/schooldistrict proposal, and we’ll certainly be

active participants in the public consulta-tion process,” McKenzie said.

Johansen noted that the district parentadvisory council has pushed hard for adefinitive, workable solution to the com-plicated high school replacement process.He applauded the city and school districtfor developing a promising solution thatmay prove to be acceptable to all.

“It is win-win,” said Mayor WayneWright.

Although there will be people whoare concerned about changes to MasseyTheatre, Wright believes the city will endup with a state-of-the-art performancefacility.

“It will be safe, it will be large, it willbe regional, it will be useful for the highschool,” he said. “We still have to go to thepublic.”

Coun. Bill Harper said there will bedetractors who think Massey Theatreshould be retained.

“There’s a great nostalgia attached tothe theatre,” he said. “There are a lot ofpeople emotionally attached to the the-atre.”

When word got out that a MetroVancouver woman was suing the prov-incial government for not stopping hergambling losses, it provoked a couple ofreactions.

One was laughter at the gallof the woman, who seems indenial about taking personalresponsibility for her actions.

The second one was shock at just howhigh her losses were.

Joyce Ross managed to blow an esti-mated $330,000 in three years at two

casinos. She signed up for the voluntaryself-exclusion program but says she wasstill allowed to gamble and lose, andnow she is suing.

She is not a professionalathlete or movie star withmoney to burn. She is a regu-lar person who got hopelesslyaddicted to gambling.

No, we don’t think the governmentshould be on the hook for her losses.

Yes, the government needs to domore to get problem gamblers help

before they blow everything they haveand more. Obviously, the self-exclusionprogram has deep flaws that need to befixed.

Then, last Thursday, the provincialgovernment launched a major expansionof online gambling, making B.C. thefirst in North America to legalize andregulate online casino games.

The government stayed on messagethis week, saying that B.C. residentsspend money in illegal, offshore sitesthat offer no protection. So people here

will be safer now under the new system.And it will mean more money for healthcare.

We’re getting all warm and fuzzy, butthere is a cost when you make it thiseasy for people to gamble. Rememberthe name Joyce Ross and her $330,000.

We’re all for a better, safer system,but problem gambling is a real issue inthis province.

And a catchy slogan – “Know yourlimit, play within it” – isn’t enough toprotect the public.

Voice wantsvalue for moneySome time ago, the Voice

directorship decided to re-energize the Voice blog, The

Express. Through our blog wehave attempted to bring to yourattention issues of concern inNew Westminster and also somenews items that we deem to berelevant. Sometimes we commenton items in the media, some-times we arrive at issues beforethe media does, and we think itis important to put all of theseissues before you.

By its constitution,Voice is an electors’organization, whosemain purpose is to findand support candidatesfor the positions of mayor, coun-cillor and school trustee. Our con-stitution also provides for us toraise issues of concern and to putthem before the community.

Voice pursues a “big tent”approach, and to facilitate this wedo not get bogged down in thedebate regarding policy issuesor ideologies. On some things,however, we all agree. Voice iscommitted to transparent andaccountable government. We alsobelieve, firmly, that governmentshould deliver value for money.

Unlike many of the currentand past office-holders in NewWestminster, we are not beholdento special interests; we are notfunded by them, nor are ourstrings pulled by them, or by any-body, for that matter. We answerto the residents, businesses andtaxpayers of New Westminster– that’s it. Many of our directors

and members come to commun-ity involvement via the residents’association movement, and thuswe are very grassroots and com-munity/neighbourhood-oriented.

To get to the core of this let-ter, we are very aware that thosewho oppose us have labelled usas negative and wish we wouldjust go away. We are also awarethat this negative label has hadsome traction in the community.We understand why and howthis has happened, but we feel

we have a constructiverole to play, and wewould like to carrythis out and be per-ceived in a positive

light.On our blog, you will find

posts of all kinds. Some of thesecould be interpreted as beingpositive, others as negative,and several fall somewhere inbetween. Not all comments thatare sent to us are appropriate tobe posted, and the blog’s mod-erators reject a number of com-ments.

We do not apologize for thefact that we were formed becausewe would like to see the city andthe school board go about theirbusiness in a very different waythan is currently done. Our bloghas played a vital role in gettingout our message. We have beenvery vocal about lack of transpar-ency and accountability and alsoabout value for money.

After the last election, somethings did change as a result of

OUR VIEWTHE RECORD

IN MY OPINIONNEIL POWELL

Power dilemma is no surpriseDear Editor:

Surprise, surprise! I’m talking about news thatthe combination of drier weather in B.C. due to cli-mate change and B.C.’s growing population meansB.C. Hydro can’t produce enough power anymorefrom its hydroelectric dams and now has to importit. Who saw that one coming?

The fact that B.C. Hydro isn’t going to be pass-ing the quarter-billion-dollar cost of these powerimports onto their ratepayers isn’t much comforteither.

B.C. Hydro says they intend to make up the costin a future year when they produce more electricitythan their ratepayers can use. But when will thatbe? B.C. Hydro hasn’t been able to do that with anyregularity for years now, and for the past decadethey’ve had to import electricity in every yearexcept one.

The lesson learned? You can’t stop buildingpower generating infrastructure for two-and-a-halfdecades like we’ve done in B.C. and not expect torun out of electricity. The people responsible forthese things need to get on the ball and make sureB.C. gets ahead of the curve again.

We’ve got the resources, and more than anyplaceelse we should be able to produce the power weneed and be more than self-sufficient.

such as date of birth, gender, marital statusor mother tongue.

But should the government be asking uswhat time we leave for work in the morning,whether our house needs renovations orhow many bedrooms we have? Apparentlythe 160,000 Canadians who refused to fillout the long form during the last census, afive-fold increase over 1981, thought someof the questions were over the top.

The Conservative government recently

announced that the long-form version of the2011 census will be voluntary, believing themajority of Canadians want the freedom tochoose how much of their private lives theywant to share with the government.

Some of us have been around longenough to remember the famous quip ofthen-prime minister Pierre Trudeau whenhe told reporters the state has no place inthe bedrooms of the nation. So why doesMichael Ignatieff believe Canadians shouldbe forced to divulge intimate, private detailsabout their personal lives?

the concerns and issues weexposed, but in our opinionmuch work remains. Thecity’s financial position andmuch of our public infra-structure have deterioratedover the last seven years.Our amenities have notkept up with the needs ofour residents as we movedtowards major densificationof the city.

Many of the issues thatwe have brought forwardhave proven to be exactlyas we initially suggested.We brought up the issue ofdysfunction in the develop-ment services departmentspecifically and in the citygenerally. As we exposed,this was leading to thewaste of hundreds of thou-sands of dollars. As eventsunfolded, our observationswere proven to be veryaccurate. Were we nega-tive as our detractors haveclaimed? We maintain that

the negatives were alreadythere and that we were justexposing them and bring-ing them to your attention.

We strongly believe inthe public’s right to knowabout the conduct of publicindividuals involved inthe lawsuit currently beingbrought against the cityregarding the 12th Streetliquor store. We think it isimportant to put the factsbefore you. That is why weare attempting to securetranscripts of the court pro-ceedings. Of course thosewho were involved claimthat we are being negative.They would love dearly tohave the facts remain hid-den.

The same can be saidfor the debacle at the pierpark. We stated at thetime that the city shouldtake out an option on thewaterfront property andexercise it only when duediligence was completed.

Our opponents were upsetwith this position, andthey claimed that we wereopposed to the park andthat we were being nega-tive. Once again, though,our concerns have beenborne out. The cost of thepark has tripled, and onlyone-third of the antici-pated scope of the workwill be done in the initialstage. Were we negativeon that issue as some haveclaimed? We think not. Webelieve that for items aslarge as the $60- to $100-million pier park project,there should have been acomprehensive and trans-parent process.

On the school boardside of things, we believethat our Voice trustees havebrought forward manypositive initiatives, and welook forward to that con-tinuing.

Voice: It’s not about being ‘negative’

The following is an excerptfrom a post this week inTheresa McManus’ blog, Onlyin New West, available on ourwebsite.

It may be a tough sellto some constituents, butMayor Wayne Wright issupportive of plans tobuild an incinerator in theregion to deal with MetroVancouver’s garbage.

On July 21, MetroVancouver’s waste com-mittee voted in favour ofbuilding an “additionalpublicly owned waste-to-energy capacity” inMetro Vancouver. MetroVancouver’s board willconsider the plan on

July 30, before it goes toEnvironment MinisterBarry Penner for finalapproval.

Wright, the city’s repre-sentative to the committee,supported the recommen-dation to refer it to theMetro Vancouver board.He supports waste-to-energy technology basedon information from MetroVancouver and city investi-gations.

Communities in theFraser Valley, fearingincreased air pollution,have voted unanimouslyagainst the incinerator pro-posal.

“We are very sympathet-

ic to what they are talkingabout,” Wright said aboutair quality concerns. “If youlook at New Westminster,last year we closed threeold mills. A state-of-the-art waste-to-energy plant(emissions) wouldn’t evencome close to one of thosemills.”

Wright said a decisionabout where an incineratorwould be built is a longways off, but he’d be will-ing to consider having onein New Westminster.

impact the ability to retain Massey Theatre,Harper said the theatre has deemed to be20 per cent reliable in a moderateseismic event.

Although the Massey TheatreSociety will be disrupted whileconstruction of a high schooland new theatre takes place,he believes it would benefit inthe long run from an improvedgovernance model. The schooldistrict would own the theatre,while the city would lease it forthe long term and have the soci-ety operate it.

The Massey Theatre Societyhasn’t been able to secure a long-term lease while the planning for a newschool has been underway, somethingthat’s impacted its ability to operate andraise funds.

According to Harper, the city’s prefer-ence is that the Massey Theatre Societywould run the new performing arts centre.

That’s why the city and schooldistrict have proposed steps thatwould take care of theatre stafffrom the time Massey Theatre isclosed and the new centre opens.

“As far as I am concerned, it isa great day for New Westminster,”Harper said. “We have finallycome to an agreement on build-ing three new schools. We willalso have a brand new track andbrand new 1,000-seat theatre.”

Jessica Schneider, executivedirector of Massey Theatre, saidthe theatre isn’t commenting on

the proposal at this time.The theatre hasn’t yet entered into any

agreements with the school district or thecity.

Local taxpayers just finished payingtheir 2010 property taxes, and city staff isalready laying out plans for the 2011 bud-get process.

A city report notes that departmentsmust submit their budgets by the end ofSeptember, and council and staff must com-plete budget deliberations in November.

As part of the 2011 budget process, staffwill do an analysis of demographic, socialand economic factors in the city.

The report notes that the city is cur-rently facing a “backlog” of buildings,parks and public works infrastructure thatneeds to be replaced.

“The current capital funding envelopesare not sufficient to address this backlog,”

said a report to council. “Consequently thebacklog in these areas continues to grow,as does the risk of infrastructure/systemsfailure.”

As part of the budget process, citystaff will complete an overview of thecity’s capital assets and an “order-of-mag-nitude estimate” of the capital backlogand any funding gaps. Staff will do long-range financial modelling that will lookat the budget impacts of bringing on newcity initiatives and different strategies foraddressing the capital backlog.

The report notes that addressing theissue will require decades and a commit-ment to providing annual funding.

My husband and I have separated. We have two children aged 12 and 9. Myhusband agrees to pay child support but believes that after the governmentmandated amount, that is all he has to pay me regarding the children. I

understood he has to pay above and beyond the mandated amount including, inparticular, a share of daycare costs. Is he correct?

The short answer is no, he is not correct. Under the Federal Child SupportGuidelines, parents are required to pay basic table child support and aproportionate share of extraordinary expenses. In most cases, the largest

extraordinary expense is daycare. Other such expenses include the portion of medicaland dental premiums attributable the children, health related expenses over $100per year above and beyond insurance reimbursements, primary, secondary andpost-secondary costs and extracurricular activities. Whether or not the parents will beordered to pay a proportionate share of extraordinary costs above and beyond basictable child support depends on a number of factors and you should seek legal adviceto determine whether or not you are entitled to payment for them.

A totem pole that’scalled Moody Park homefor many years is undergo-ing repairs that will extendits life for many years tocome.

The totem pole had beenlocated at the park’s play-ground but was removedwhile new washroomswere constructed. It’s nowbeing restored by Burnabyresident Manny Fernandes,who has also restoreda handful of other totempoles that stand in NewWestminster parks.

“It’s been here a coupleof months,” Fernandes said.“I am expecting to have itdone by mid-August.”

Fernandes is gettingset to start repainting thetotem pole, having finishedrepairing damage to thewood.

“It was in bad shape. Thewoodpeckers were makingholes in it,” he said. “It isgoing to outlast me. Thereare wood preservatives inthere now.”

When he received the

totem pole, Fernandes wasable to put his arm intothe totem pole because thewood had deteriorated. It’sbeen filled with insulatingfoam, cracks have beenpatched with wood, andthe entire piece has beensprayed with a wood pre-server.

Ervio Sian, the city’s for-

mer head gardener, carvedtotem poles, benches andwood climbing devices aspart of his efforts to rebuildplaygrounds in the city inthe 1970s and 1980s. Sian,who passed away earlierthis year, carved the totempole that will be placedback in Moody Park.

Claude LeDoux, the

city’s manager of horticul-ture, said the totem polewas removed as part of theyouth centre/washroomconstruction project inMoody Park.

“We will probably lookat replacing it in the fall,”he said. “We want to put itin a location where it can’tbe disturbed.”

Pole made whole: Manny Fernandes shows reporter Theresa McManus the totempole that’s being restored before being returned to Moody Park.

Smokers who like to light up while at the park willhave to quit the habit for a while. The B.C. WildfireManagement Branch has declared a temporary prov-incewide ban on open burning, which includes ciga-rettes as well as campfires and fireworks.

Although the ban only officially applies to provin-cial parks, Crown and private lands, city staff decidedto extend it to all city parks and natural lands.

“Combustible material ignites easily if unnoticed,especially with something like a discarded cigarette,”said John Hatch of the New Westminster Fire andRescue Services. “A wind can come up, and all of asudden it ignites the ground fuels under the trees.Then we have a tree fire, which can leap to other trees,and then all of a sudden we’ve lost a 150-year-oldcedar we can’t replace.”

The ban does not apply to cooking stoves that usegas, propane or briquettes, or to portable campfireapparatus with a CSA or ULC rating using briquettes,liquid or gaseous fuel, that aren’t capable of produc-ing a flame longer than 15 centimetres.

Hatch said he wouldn’t be able guess how longthe ban will be in place, saying that it depends onthe weather and decisions made by the Coastal FireCentre. Hatch said he hopes people will exercise com-mon sense during the current dry spell.

“We just want people to be aware of the situationand be careful out there.”

It may be a tough sell to someconstituents, but Mayor WayneWright is supportive of plans tobuild an incinerator in the regionto deal with Metro Vancouver’sgarbage.

On July 21, Metro Vancouver’swaste committee voted in favourof building an “additional public-ly owned waste-to-energy capac-ity” in Metro Vancouver. MetroVancouver’s board will considerthe plan on July 30 before it goesto Environment Minister BarryPenner for final approval.

Wright, the city’s representa-tive to the committee, supportedthe recommendation to refer itto the Metro Vancouver board.He supports waste-to-energytechnology based on informationfrom Metro Vancouver and cityinvestigations.

“With all of that information,I think it is a positive,” he said.“That is what our (council’s) gen-eral opinion is.”

Communities in the Fraser

Valley, fearing increased air pol-lution, have voted unanimouslyagainst the incinerator proposal.

“We are very sympathetic towhat they are talking about,”Wright said about air-qualityconcerns. “If you look at NewWestminster, last year we closedthree old mills. A state-of-the-art waste-to-energy plant (emis-sions) wouldn’t even come closeto one of those mills.”

Wright said a decision aboutwhere an incinerator would bebuilt is a long ways off, but he’dbe willing to consider having onein New Westminster. He notedit’s something that would be ableto provide direct energyand heat.

“It would be state-of-the-art,” he said aboutan incinerator. “The lastone they opened was onthe Seine River, two kilo-metres from the EiffelTower.”

The scientific infor-mation he’s seen is“overwhelmingly” sup-portive of waste-to-ener-gy technology, Wrightsaid.

“I’m very doubtful if an in-region waste facility wouldpass scrutiny by the provincial

government,” said Port MoodyMayor Joe Trasolini, who votedagainst the plan. “I want to go toVictoria with something that hasa reasonable chance.”

At least four Metro munici-palities, includingVancouver, have saidthey won’t supportincineration until theregion has explored alloptions to reduce waste.

“What we want todo is make sure it goesthrough all the testingrequirements, that it isnot hurting anybody,”Wright said. “I welcome

that. That is thenext step youhave to take.”

Trasolini and PortCoquitlam Mayor GregMoore, chairman of thesolid waste committee,suggested Metro consid-er building an incinera-tor outside the region.

“There wasn’t muchsupport for it,” Wrightsaid about an out-of-region incinerator.

“We’re back to the old premise– why would you dump yourgarbage in someone else’s back-yard?”

Johnny Carline, chief admin-istrator of Metro Vancouver, saida $470-million incinerator in theregion remains the preferredoption because the region wouldget the revenue from electricity

and heat sales, and itwould be cheaper thantrucking the trash away.

Carline urged Metroto do its homework onthe incinerator proposalfirst and consider alter-natives later if it isn’tfound to be feasible.The incinerator was rec-ommended to take the500,000 tonnes of addi-tional garbage per yearthat can’t otherwise be

recycled.Metro Vancouver produc-

es about 1.4 million tonnes ofgarbage a year. The solid-wastemanagement plan aims to raiserecycling rates from 55 per centof garbage today to 70 per centby 2015.

New Westminster city coun-cil recently supported MetroVancouver’s integrated solidwaste and resource managementplan.

The plan has four goals:◗ minimizing waste generation;◗ maximizing reuse, recycling

and material/energy recovery;◗ recovering energy from thewaste stream after recycling;◗ disposing of all remaining wastein the landfill after material andenergy recovery.

“All of the goals make alot of sense,” said Coun. BettyMcIntosh. “The goals are pro-gressive.”

“We agree with the plan theyhave,” Wright said. “They haveto do the zero waste challenge.We are reducing as much as wecan, recycling as much as wecan.”

While people can be “quitepassionate” about the issue ofincinerators in New Westminster,McIntosh said they may be sur-prised to know that all of thecity’s waste goes to an incineratorin Burnaby.

“A new one would have newtechnology,” she said.

New Westminster city coun-cil recently endorsed recommen-dations from its environmentaladvisory committee and forward-ed them to the Metro Vancouver.Those recommendations includ-ed asking Metro Vancouver toincrease the resources neededto meet a 70 per cent target ofdiverting garbage from landfills.

It is probably a safe bet that Sarah“TNT” McLeod, who is competing in aprovincial bikini contest at the MasseyTheatre on Saturday, could easily beat upevery other swimsuit model in the dress-ing room.

The 22-year-old Burnaby woman isquickly making a name for herself as thenext big thing on the women’s mixedmartial arts (MMA) circuit.

Despite only having been a competi-tive fighter for a less than a year, McLeodis attracting a rapidly growing fan baseand already has a Facebook fan page withnearly 300 members.

It likely doesn’t hurt that she lookspretty good in a bikini.

“As far as I know, there aren’t anyother bikini models who are into fight-ing,” said McLeod with a laugh. “The twoare kind of both ends of the extreme.”

She says the two interests aren’t neces-sarily mutually exclusive though, as bothrequire a great deal of time spent in thegym.

Even still, there is always a risk of adisfiguring injury that isn’t an occupa-tional hazard most models have to dealwith.

“I actually have a broken nose andsome bruising right now,” she admitted,“but you load up with so much makeupand tanning cream that everything canmostly be covered up, and the judges arereally looking more at muscle definitionand body proportions anyway.”

If she makes the top three finalists,McLeod will be invited to attend thenational competition next month inOntario and possibly earn a ticket tobe a professional bikini model, a gigthat comes with sponsorship and travelopportunities.

“My main goal is to qualify for the Mr.Olympia. The bikini category is a newcategory that just opened this year, andit’s a pretty big deal.”

Her trainer and manager, Marcus Hicksof Team Denarius, admits that much ofthe hype surrounding his young protegétends to focus on her looks.

“Because she is beautiful, people don’texpect her to be a hard puncher,” he said.“She is basically a knockout artist. Shehas so much power, I find that most guys

are surprised when Sarah hits them.”McLeod convinced Hicks to take her

on after meeting him in the gym lastDecember.

Twelve short days later, she made herdebut inside the cage at the River RockCasino in Richmond, battling Wendy Royto a hard-fought draw that was votedFight of the Night. McLeod, a reformedparty girl who traded the bar scene forthe addiction of working out, hasn’tlooked back since.

Her bantamweight showdown againstCheryl Chan of Surrey’s Mendoza MartialArts was one of the main draws at a con-test held earlier this month at the RiverRock.

But despite dominating the first tworounds, Chan was declared the winnerafter the referee ended it at 1:13 into thethird.

Chan, 31, won by a technical submis-sion after trapping McLeod in an armlock, and the ref controversially opted tostop the fight rather than allow her to tapout (surrender) or attempt to break free.

“It was ridiculous that they stopped it,”said Hicks, who doubts the ref would’vedone the same if it had been a men’s fight.“I really think it was because it was twofemales. I saw her get out of the exactsame lock at a jiu-jitsu tournament a fewweeks before.”

Although she lost the fight, youwouldn’t have known it by looking at thewinner, whose face was looking painfullyswollen and bruised afterwards.

“I definitely couldn’t be looking likethat at any modelling competition,” saidMcLeod.

With a little luck and plenty moretraining, maybe she never will.

Class reunionA group of former

Burnaby South studentsenjoys celebrating togetherin New Westminster.

Royal City residentBarbara Kromm organ-izes the annual reunionof people she attendedschool with in Burnaby inthe 1950s. The get-togeth-ers started in 2002 with 11people in Kromm’s livingroom,.

“It’s a conglomerationof people I knew when Iwas going to school,” sheexplained. “They are fromall different grades.”

In addition to Kromm,the group includes severalNew Westminster residentsincluding Don Beadle, Jakeand Doris Frizzell, BillHunt, Nita Glen and Jackand Karrol Sims.

The idea was to holdthe get-togethers every two

years, but people liked con-necting with old friends somuch that they now meetannually.

“The group keeps grow-ing,” Kromm said. “Therewere over 60 that werethere.”

Kromm said someschools have class reunions,but this gathering capturessome who may not havegraduated from school andmay be missed. She notesthat in the 1950s there werea lot of people who didn’tgraduate for various rea-sons, such as going to workto help their families.

Folks came from Atlanta,Palm Springs, Winnipegand throughout B.C. toreconnect with old friends.

While the group consistsof people who attendedschools in Burnaby, Krommsaid many have a connec-tion to New Westminster.

“There was no bound-ary,” she said of the two cit-ies. “The land my parentsowned was St. ThomasMore Collegiate. My fatherhad a golf driving rangethere.”

In 1907, NewWestminster hadmoved almost a decade

past a great fire that hadwiped out its downtowncore, the double-deckedrail bridge was only a fewyears old but still a mar-vel of engineering, and

the memories of the 1905Dominion Exhibition heldin Queen’s Park were stillfresh.

The B.C. Penitentiarywas on the hillside abovethe Fraser River as one fol-lowed Columbia Street outto Sapperton.

Though the Pen had notyet received its dominatingfront entrance and massiveconcrete walls, it was stilla commanding landmark.Situated on a site wellknown to First Nationsand the former location ofthe camp of the Columbiadetachment of RoyalEngineers, this facility

housed many prisoners,but in the summer of 1907it held a special “resident.”

Bill Miner, perpetratorof stagecoach and trainrobberies and a string ofother nefarious deeds, wasincarcerated in the Pen,serving a lengthy sentencefor a train holdup nearKamloops the previousyear. Miner, a wily oldcharacter and con manextraordinaire who becameknown as “the Grey Fox,”always vowed to escapefrom custody, but somedidn’t view that as muchof a threat as he was get-ting to be an old man.

On Aug. 8, 1907, Minerand a few other convictsescaped from the Pen andheaded north. A few wit-nesses saw the escapees asthey disappeared into thebush, and a massive searchensued. Any place thatthe fugitives could go waschecked and staked out,but Miner was long gone.

Stories of Miner arefascinating as he movedabout easily, convincedmany people that he wassomeone he wasn’t, andmade fast friends whowould swear that he wasnot the armed robber. Hisstory is complicated by

the fact that Miner wasforever making up storiesto fit a particular situation.The challenge has alwaysbeen to separate fact fromfiction. Unverified storiesabound about Miner beinghere or there, but most aresimply not possible.

Using information froma couple of excellent pub-lications, as well as manyother sources of interest,we have pieced togetherinformation to create atour – part walking tourand part cemetery tour.The tour, called Bill MinerTrain Robber Has Escaped,will be held on Sunday,

Aug. 1, starting at 3 p.m.from the Glenbrook RavinePark (off Jamieson Court)and ending in the Fraserand St Peter’s Cemetery.The tour will include a fewhills and some stairs.

On the tour, you willhear of the escape in thearea where it actually hap-pened in August of 1907,and in the cemetery, youwill “meet” a witness tothe escape, the Pen wardenat the time, the deputywarden under whosewatch it happened, andothers connected to BillMiner and his time at theB.C. Penitentiary.

Pen less mighty than famous ward

Looking for something cool to read during these longhot summer days? These short stories will send shiversdown your spine.

Classics like The Monkey’s Paw by J.J. Jacobs, TheGreat God Pan by Arthur Machen, The Call of Cthulhuby H.P. Lovecraft, The Dead Man by Fritz Leiber, ADiagnosis of Death by Ambrose Bierce and The Lotteryby Shirley Jackson will have you breaking out in a coldsweat. You’ll find these and more in short story collec-tions like Masterpieces of Terror and the Unknown and The13 Best Horror Stories of All Time.

Edgar Allan Poe’s tales can freeze your blood.Sixteen of Poe’s best stories, including The Tell-TaleHeart, The Murders in the Rue Morgue and The Raven areall in the library.

In 20th Century Ghosts, Joe Hill, like his fatherStephen King, tells stories that are mind-numbing. Yourfingers will burn from turning the pages so quickly.

And, how cool is this? Stephen King, who announcedin 2002 that he would stop writing, is still publishing.

His latest, Blockade Billy, is the story of a baseballplayer who stops players cold at the plate. And look forFull Dark, No Stars, four shivery stories to be publishedin November.

Neil Gaiman’s anthology Stories includes his chillingThe Truth is a Cave in the Black Mountains.

You’ll be burning the midnight oil when you pick upDarkness: Two Decades of Modern Horror edited by EllenDatlow. Like Gaiman, she gathered spine-tingling stor-ies from some of the best writers in the business. Thesestories will give cold comfort.

If you want more suggestions, check out Horror: 100Best Books and Horror: Another 100 Best Books, edited byStephen Jones, or take a look at www.goodreads.comfor their list of Most Terrifying Short Stories.

Don’t get cold feet. They’re perfect summer reading.

Katie Reyes crushed her second grandslam home run of the tournament, whilecatcher Madison Newman also clubbed adinger to help the Oakeys defeat CordovaBay 7-6 before the home crowd in thechampionship final July 16.

Meghan Malkowich played the heroin the outfield, stopping two of CordovaBay’s heavy hitters with a pair of sure-handed catches to deny the visitors over-the-fence runs.

The game ended with a dramatic finishin the seventh inning.

With the bases loaded and the tying runfor Cordova Bay on third base, infielderKaela Ponte recorded a double play, get-ting the initial out at first base and then fir-ing the ball home to Newman, who tagged

the runner attempting to score.In the semifinal game, Reyes tagged

her first four-run homer to lead Burnabypast the eventual third-place AbbotsfordOutlaws.

The Oakeys went a perfect 4-0 in thepreliminary round, beating opponentsSouth Delta Invaders, Poco Ravens,Langley Rebels and SSWR Thunder by anaccumulated margin of 34-4

Burnaby then defeated the Ravens andFleetwood Force in the medal rounds tokeep its perfect record intact.

Lead-off batter Courtney Carlson was abig reason for Burnaby’s dominance at theplate, batting a whopping .818 in the com-petition. Arielle Charuk also lit a spark,tagging the team’s first home run out ofthe park during the round-robin.

Burnaby also got outstanding pitchingfrom Kat Hatch, Malkowich and Charuk.

Tim Stephens' Astral Reflections July 25 - 31★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★

Aries March 21 - April 19: Major shifts areoccurring in your life, in career, status, relationshipsand in yourself. You’re ready to make a big leap forfreedom, yet there’s nowhere to land except in thearea of duty, restriction and slow effort. Muffled angermight exist in a relationship. Best approach: use thaturge toward freedom to seek philosophical learningor more education, or to expand socially and/orinternationally. View all relationships and prospectsnot as escape, but as ambition’s ground. E.g.,form a career partnership. Be prepared to change,go slow and exercise diplomacy. August accentsnegotiations.

Taurus April 20-May 20: A major change is alreadyunderway. (It started last spring, but peaks nowand lasts into 2011.) It affects your work, duty andintellectual spheres. These include such things ascultural events, love, international travel, publishing,higher learning,health,machinery/tools,employment/employees, government, institutional, administrative,spiritual and charity areas. Your life will never be thesame! But these are not painful nor “crisis” changes– you’ll do fine! My best advice: turn a challengeinto success, but don’t get caught in an unfixablesituation/project. August holds a major task.

Gemini May 21-June 20: It started in late 2008,intensified this spring, and peaks all summer: a seriesof major shifts in your sexual, financial, investment,health, romantic, creative, sports, speculation, child-oriented and social spheres. Never again will thesebe the same – improvement’s slated! You might begina deeply intimate relationship with someone quiteconservative or of a different generation. You mightcompletely switch your financial structure. A newcreativity can be sparked, but it is a slow, deep one,no overnight successes here. Be close to Aries andLibra friends; they might need you.

Cancer June 21-July 22: A gigantic shift peaks thissummer (it began in 2008, lasts ultimately to 2024)in your relationships, career and home. You shouldsee plenty of evidence of these forces of changethis week and next. My advice is simple: be flexible,willing, eager to join forces, diplomatic, honestand loving. Then what can go permanently wrong?Nothing. You might have to deal with: A stubborn yetpersuasive partner (or an almost too-alluring person!).Muffled anger in the home. A possible break-up.Unpredictable, yet unexpectedly lucky situations inyour career, prestige realms or business.

Leo July 23-Aug. 22: This summer’s massivechanges and stresses don’t hit you as directly as some,Leo. But the slow changes that has been building fortwo years peak this week and next in your work,health, machinery-related, communications, legal,educational, travelling, cultural, love, philosophicaland intellectual spheres. (DON’T drive recklessly!)A letter could reveal a lawsuit, or an email couldlight your heart with love. Job changes might occur– but the more obvious changes are in intellectual,friendship and travel zones. Old methods will beabandoned; new ones will form (slowly, in somecases).

Virgo Aug. 23-Sept. 22: Big financial, lifestyle and/or sexual changes are imminent. They won’t surprise,as life has “telegraphed” them to you for almosttwo years (and some have already occurred). Viewthese changes as a varying landscape on a road thatis primarily successful, creative, loving and fruitful.Still, challenges exist. A new, restrictive note quietlycreeps into your earnings outlook for two years, sobe conservative in spending. You might invest in yourearnings sphere – e.g., buy equipment. Go slow.Investments are both unpredictable and lucky – sex,too! Surprising revelations come here and there!

Libra Sept. 23-Oct. 22: Major changes beganabout two years ago, intensified the last few months,and peak this week and next. (With variations throughthe years ahead.) The present peak brings in newelements, people and situations. Expect stresses/changes in home, security, property, all relationships,contracts, litigation, partnerships, relocationprospects and in yourself. You are now determinedto enter a relationship only if it grants you security.This can cause a “muddying” effect. Amazing, bright,friendly, lucky, unexpected (and perhaps short-lived)relationships will arise – for seven years!

Scorpio Oct. 23-Nov. 21: Be ambitious. Manystresses and changes exist around you, but theyaffect others more directly; they could even createopenings and opportunities for you to move forward.(Money-wise Sunday/Monday, socially Thursday.)These undergo flux: work, employment, machinery,duties toward children, management, corporate andgovernment“organizationcharts,”institutions,spiritualand charitable interests. All these changes turn on thefulcrum of (or affect) your ability to communicate ortravel. (E.g., changes “on high”might change who youcommunicate with, the style of report.)

Sagittarius Nov. 22-Dec. 21: Big changes occurthis summer in three areas of your life: the romantic,creative, pleasure and child-oriented sphere, thesocial, entertainment and “future dreams” area,and in your earnings/possessions zone. Generally,your social drives, optimism and love of fun will“rule,” whereas money necessities “out-power”your romantic and creative drives. You’re lucky pre-dawn Monday, and you clearly see money/domesticmatters late Thursday. You might need to figure outsome ethical, friendship or love matter Sunday/Monday. A month of travel, culture, love and learninglies ahead!

Capricorn Dec. 22-Jan. 19: You’re in the power seat,but that doesn’t mean things will be easy. This weekand next are the peak of a long change. This changehas different levels – some are deep, inner, sexual,psychological, investment-oriented, and can changeyour whole lifestyle. Other changes occur in career,ambition and prestige dealings. You might break froma former career, association, or direction, and assumea new one. Realize a higher-up might be repressinganger. A potentially very lucky change arrives in yourdomestic sphere: now, soon, or February to June2011. Treat aches, pains seriously.

Aquarius Jan. 20-Feb. 18: Relationships come frontand centre through the weeks ahead.Your sensual sidehas been very “awake” recently, but now the accentshifts to meaning, love, morals, communication, traveland mental links. You love these things, breezy mentalinterplay, ideals, meanings. This summer forcesyou, probably through a relationship, to rediscoverand rebuild your morals and ideals, perhaps againsta background of secret desires or fears. E.g., anattraction could make you question your loyalty. Or old“fibs” return to play the music you have to face. Butthis week proves you’re lucky, too!

Pisces Feb. 19-March 20: Lie low, rest Sunday toTuesday. Your energy surges Wednesday/Thursday.Focus on money, earnings and spending Friday/Saturday. The weeks ahead emphasize work, health,dependents and machinery. A “prime” changebrews in your health, sexual and financial spheres.(Financial: the price of groceries to your paychequeto investments/debt.) The change is deep and seminal– it starts a new future. These areas will definitelyimpact your plans for your future – and your planswill affect them. Expect luck, struggle, obstacles andopportunity. A relationship grows “talkative.”
