Plumes of black smoke filled the skies over South Surrey Tuesday after fire engulfed the cab of a semi-trailer headed south on High-way 99 around 12:45 p.m.

Exactly what caused the fire is still unclear, deputy fire Chief Jon Caviglia said, however, there were no reports of injury.

“Lots of fire, but not much story,” Caviglia said the next day.

Onlookers who lined Croydon Drive to get

a glimpse of the fire told Peace Arch News they heard several “big booms” and came running to see what had happened.

“We could feel the heat,” said Brian Carse, who spotted the smoke from Morgan Cross-ing. “I actually shot video when it exploded. A car was driving by just as it blew – it must’ve scared the crap out of them.

“I hope he got out,” Carse said of the driver.Warren Anderson, a Grandview Corners

manager, was on his way to lunch when he heard the noise.

“The battery blew up first, then the tires started exploding,” Anderson said.

“The flames were probably at first 50 to 60 feet. It’s pretty wild.”

Ian Demrey, a Cloverdale resident, said the rig was smoking when he passed it in the 2600-block of the highway. Demrey described the vehicle, which was pulling a load of cement blocks, as a training tractor.

“I was like, ‘holy smokes,’” Demrey said. “First time I’ve seen a rig burn right down like that.”


A report of an overturned vessel in Boundary Bay led marine rescue crews to scour waters for several hours Tuesday in search of whomever may have been onboard.

Fortunately, the owner was located safe and sound – after seven hours. He had apparently left the skiff anchored off Point Roberts after the boat broke down, and didn’t advise author-

ities when he returned to discover it missing.While pleased with the happy ending, res-

cue co-ordination officials said the extensive search could have been easily averted.

“It took quite a bit of work,” said Steve Church, maritime co-ordinator at the Joint Rescue Co-ordination Centre. “Until you know for sure that the owner’s safe, you’ve got to keep searching.

“It sort of shows the value of notifying the

Coast Guard when you leave a vessel out there.”

Church said in addition to the Crescent Beach auxiliary team, the search effort involved the Canadian Coast Guard hovercraft and a U.S. Coast Guard helicopter.

Sig Kristensen, a member of the Crescent Beach auxilliary, said it was “kind of disconcert-ing” not knowing if the vessel’s owner was safe.

Surrey man sues city

CannonlawsuitderidedTracy HolmesStaff Reporter

A Cloverdale man, fed up with apparent inaction to quell blue-berry-cannon noise, is suing the City of Surrey for “unanticipated expense and emotional harm.”

In his claim, Jim McMurtry accuses the city of neglecting “to discharge its duty to enforce its own bylaws.”

“The city turns a blind eye to many of its bylaws, from monster homes and truck park-ing on the ALR to cosmetic pes-ticides and the destruction of active bird nests. More to the point here, it neglects to ever fine a farmer that violates its noise law on the use of propane cannons,” McMurtry writes in an email to media.

But city solicitor Craig MacFar-lane doubts the suit – in which McMurtry is seeking partial reim-bursement of funds spent on prop-erty he bought in the U.S. to escape the noise – would go far.

Jack Layton is being remem-bered as the NDP leader who brought the party out of the

wilderness to official Opposition status in Ottawa.

Some of that crucial work took place in Surrey. Layton was a frequent visitor to Sur-rey – not only during election campaigns, but throughout the years. He recruited candi-dates here, and he got to know many of the issues that the city con-tinues to grapple with.

When Layton became NDP federal leader in 2003, Surrey had not had a sitting NDP MP for 10 years. Surrey had no NDP MLAs, and the NDP presence on city council and the school board was minimal.

This was an aberration. Many Surrey voters have long preferred the NDP (and its predecessor, the CCF) to help articulate their concerns.

Way back in 1937, just a few years after the formation of the CCF, Len Shepherd was elected as CCF MLA for the Delta rid-ing, which included Surrey – a post he held for eight years.

Numerous CCF sympathizers were elected to Surrey council and school board, and when the NDP was formed in 1961, Surrey voters were among the first to elect an NDP MP. Barry Mather won the New Westminster seat (which included Surrey) in 1962.

Mather represented Surrey for the next 12 years.

On the provincial front, the CCF had retaken the Delta seat (by then it was a two-member seat) in 1960, lost the seats

in 1963, and Ernest Hall was elected in the new Surrey seat in 1966. He later went on to serve in the cabinet of Dave Barrett, B.C.’s first NDP premier.

In more recent years, Surrey elected three NDP MLAs in 1991, with all three, Joan Smallwood, Penny Priddy and Sue Ham-mell, serving in cabinet at various times. Jim Karpoff was elected as the first Surrey North MP in 1988.

But in 2003, the NDP were at a low ebb. Their civic arm, the Surrey Civic Electors, had fallen apart. The NDP were

all but wiped out in the 2001 provincial election, with the Lib-erals winning all seven Surrey seats. Federally, the party had just 13 seats across Canada, with just two of them in B.C. In the 2000 federal election, the party received just 8.5 per cent of the votes.

Layton became leader of the NDP after serving as a Toronto city councillor and president of the Canadian Federation of Municipalities. As such, he knew the needs of growing cities like Surrey and had built alliances with municipal leaders across the country. While he had some challenges when he first took on the post, he soon demon-strated a grasp of basic issues and an ability to moderate and lead an often-fractious political party. He personally recruited former MLA Penny Priddy to run for the Surrey North seat in the 2006 federal election – a seat the NDP won, in part due to Priddy’s high profile, in part

due to Layton and in part due to Priddy’s friendship with former MP Chuck Cadman, who was elected in 2004 as an indepen-dent and was much-loved in his constituency. Cadman died of cancer in 2005.

Meanwhile, the provincial NDP were finding their feet. While Layton played less of a role in that, his high personal profile helped to put the NDP back on the radar screen as a contender at all levels.

Priddy’s decision not to run again in 2008 was a temporary setback for the federal NDP in the Surrey region, but Layton kept looking for good candi-dates. In the May election, two of his recruits, Jasbir Sandhu in Surrey North and Ginny Sims in Newton-North Delta, won their seats. This gives the NDP the strongest federal representation it has ever had from Surrey.

Layton was in Surrey numer-ous times before and during the campaign. He was on a first-name basis with many local NDP members. And perhaps most importantly, his ability as a leader to articulate a vision for his party attracted many young people to work on the cam-paigns – more than in any NDP campaign in memory.

He empowered many people who weren’t all that political, and made them feel that they can effect positive change.

The NDP will have a tough time finding a leader to fill his shoes. Layton’s hard work in building the party across Can-ada, and in Surrey, was excep-tional.

Cutting-edge technology used by university students

White Rock takes inventory of its trees

Residents urged to ask police for monitoring

Crash site not on City of Surrey’s radar

Alex BrowneStaff Reporter

Young workers tagging and measuring trees on city property in White Rock over the past couple of months have been cause for some alarm among residents.

But they shouldn’t fear the trees were being targeted for removal, says White Rock engi-neering director Rob Thompson.

“It’s quite the opposite,” Thompson said this week. “We’re developing a database of trees to make sure they are preserved as long as, and whenever, possible,” he said, adding the program is part of a recognition that trees are a valuable asset for the city, both aesthetically and practically.

“They help us control storm water run-off, for example.”

The inventory project is a co-op placement of four university students with the city that

began this June and ends this week. The program will probably be continued for the next two years, Thompson explained, until a complete inventory can be compiled.

Under the guidance of city arborist Aelicia Otto, this year’s students have been Simon Fraser fourth-year geographic information systems (GIS) major Jerry Mo; third-year UBC forestry resource management major Shane Jobber, fourth-year forestry major Laiyi Chow and Siew Law, who has her bachelors’ degree in forestry from UBC and is currently pursuing her masters in GIS at the University of Calgary.

During a brief break from their assignment at White Rock’s Allan Hogg Rotary Park Wednesday, the team members explained their jobs, which are also giving them valu-able experience that will help them gain employment in their field.

Law, equipped with a GPS unit, has been pre-surveying trees, tagging them for detailed inspection by Chow and Jobber.

“We’ve assessed them by species, height,

size, and overall health, inspecting them for insects and disease and any other problems that would affect the tree,” Jobber said.

“It’s a very proactive approach to tree resource management,” Chow said.

IT specialist for the group is Mo, who said he has been gaining experience using “cut-ting-edge technology” employed by the city, while building up a detailed database from the information gathered by the others.

“It’s very exciting for a small city like White Rock to be creating an inventory of this kind,” said Otto. “Jerry’s programming allows us to compare different aspects of trees to one an other, and compare to an ideal example of each species.

“For an important community resource like trees, it gives us a more accurate picture of what we’re dealing with, and allows us to design how we move forward.”


Residents hoping for a degree of traffic calm-ing at the intersection of Stayte Road (160 Street) and Pacific Avenue (10 Avenue) may be wise not to get their hopes up.

City officials in Surrey say it’s unlikely there will be changes in the area anytime soon, for two reasons: traffic volume, speed and colli-sion statistics don’t warrant it; and, city policy prohibits any calming on the two roads.

Neighbours Dianne Dickinson and Julie Thorsen told Peace Arch News Monday that the corner has been the site of regular colli-sions and close calls – the most recent on Aug. 20 – for years.

After Saturday’s incident, in which police say a driver westbound on 10th failed to stop for a stop sign and collided with a SUV northbound on 160th, the pair decided to speak out.

But City of Surrey engineer Philip Bellefon-taine said change is not currently in the cards

for the intersection.Stayte/160th – which divides Surrey and

White Rock – is considered an arterial road, Bellefontaine explained, while Pacific/10th is a collector road. That means both are destined to carry higher vol-umes of traffic, and are main routes for emergency services. The city’s policy is to ensure those functions within the road network are pro-tected into the future, he said.

“We’re not permitted to put traffic calming on an arterial road,” Bellefontaine said Tuesday. “We’re not in a position to put traffic calming on collector roads, either. It’s our policy.”

Bellefontaine noted exceptions may be made for collector roads that run by schools.

Regarding the possibility of installing a traffic signal at the site, Bellefontaine said a previ-ous review determined it wasn’t warranted. According to ICBC data, only two collisions have been reported at the intersection in the

past three years, he said, noting both the recent crash as well as one that occurred in May would not yet be in the system.

Officials would “absolutely” act if the data signalled change was needed, he said.

While a new look at the site is not planned, Bellefontaine said if the city receives complaints or a request, they will re-examine it “with a higher level of scrutiny.”

In the meantime, he suggested residents con-cerned about speed along the thoroughfares appeal to the RCMP to take steps. He added he will share their concerns with local police at an upcoming liaison meeting.

Regarding Saturday’s crash, police say occu-pants of both vehicles were taken to hospital, then released. The driver of the westbound vehicle, a 36-year-old South Surrey woman, was cited for failing to stop at the stop sign and fined $121.

Drug blastAn explosion in a basement

meth lab rocked neighbours in Newton Monday and left a plume of smoke and the sharp odour of chemicals hanging in the air.

Witnesses saw a white man in his mid-30s flee the area on a bicycle, while yelling at them to get away from the house in the 7200-block of 140A Street.

An RCMP spokesman described the clandestine drug lab as a “pretty small operation” with no apparent links to organized crime.

A suspect has not yet been found, but police believe he may have suffered burns.

Man soughtWhite Rock RCMP are seeking

the public’s help in locating a man wanted in connection with alleged crimes in the city and involving Transit police.

Known to frequent the White Rock and South Surrey area – particularly the area of 152 Street and 17 Avenue – Emmett Ralph Brady is described as 20 years old, 5’10”, with a medium build, blond hair and blue eyes.

Brady is wanted on warrants for break-and-enter, theft, possession of stolen property, obstruction of a peace officer and assault of a peace officer.

Anyone who spots Brady is advised to call 911, and not approach him. Anyone with information as to his whereabouts is asked to contact White Rock RCMP at 778-593-3600.

Police searchA Rosemary Heights resident

investigating a suspicious noise early Tuesday found a stranger standing next to his car.

Police say the incident took place around 4 a.m. in the 15500-block of 36 Avenue, after the resident heard his garage door open. He confronted the male, who fled.

Officers, including a police-dog team, were dispatched, but the man – a skinny, six-foot tall Caucasian male – was not located.

A GPS unit was reported missing.

The incident was the third that Kristensen’s crew responded to involving such vessels in two days.

Monday, a gale that gusted 20- to 25-knot winds and whisked up six-foot swells in the bay spelled trouble for two boats participat-ing in the opening of the U.S. native fishery.

The auxiliary crew was tasked

out around 7:30 a.m. Aug. 22, after a boat headed to Point Rob-erts from Blaine broke down just south of Kwomais Point, near Ocean Park.

On their way back to Crescent Beach Marina, after towing that vessel back to Blaine, the rescue team spotted a second vessel that appeared to be in trouble.

Investigating, they learned the two-man crew – who had no

compass, cellphone, radio or life-jackets onboard – had become lost trying to return to Blaine.

After multiple efforts to point them in the right direction were unsuccessful, the auxiliary crew escorted the boat in.

Kristensen noted occupants of both vessels appeared unswayed by the conditions on the water.

“When these guys went out, they knew it was there,” he said.

“He claims that he had to buy a vacation home in Washing-ton State because he can’t stand the noise of blueberry cannons,” MacFarlane told Peace Arch News Wednesday.

“I don’t think the taxpayers of Surrey would want to subsidize somebody’s vacation residence. That’s what he’s asking for.”

McMurtry, a teacher who lives near 168 Street and Highway 10, lodged his complaint at the pro-vincial small claims court in Sur-rey Friday.

In his claim, McMurtry alleges the city has done nothing to pro-tect his family from the cannons, “even when their use contravenes the city’s own noise bylaws.”

According to the bylaw, a noise-scare device may be used to pro-tect berry crops provided certain conditions are met, including: the device is only operated between 6:30 a.m. and noon, and 3-8 p.m. (or dawn to dusk, whichever is lesser); no more than one device is operated per two hectares of crop; the device is only used for wildlife predation management and not prior to the onset of bird damage or after the crop is harvested; single-shot devices fire no more than once per five minutes; and, the device is not located within 150 metres of a neighbouring residence within the Agricultural Land Reserve, or within 200 metres of a neigh-bouring residence located out-side the ALR.

Offenders are liable to a fine of up to $2,000 per offence.

But McMurtry said the city has yet to issue any fines, despite concerns raised by residents over the years, and despite a 2010 decision by the Farm Industry Review Board that McMurtry says proves farmers routinely violate noise bylaws.

According to the decision – McMurtry v Sekhon, Jan. 29, 2010, posted on the FIRB website – respondents’ use and manage-ment of propane cannons was not consistent with guidelines established regarding firing fre-quency, monitoring and reloca-tion of cannons on farms operat-ing near 168 Street and Highway 10. They were ordered to modify their practices accordingly.

MacFarlane said the “very few” complaints fielded by the city are investigated and typically are referred to a liaison with the Growers’ Association of B.C.,

who contacts the owner of any cannons reported to be malfunc-tioning.

Because the cannons’ use comes under B.C.’s Right to Farm Act, there is little more the city can do, he said.

“The provincial legislation doesn’t allow us to interfere in farming operations,” he said. “It’s out of our jurisdiction.”

McMurtry blames the city’s continued inaction to enforce its own rules on officials not want-ing to lose farmers’ votes.

“The city continues to duck from issues because it places electoral support from the farm industry above its own law,” he said by email to Peace Arch News.

McMurtry is suing the city for $25,000 plus court costs. Mac-Farlane said the city will file its response “fairly quickly.”

High home costs are increasingly pricing people out of the real estate market and raising questions about Metro Vancouver’s

long-term affordability and sustainability.The market’s rise has been partly driven by an

influx of foreign investment, including a steady parade of buyers from China.

Meanwhile, the struggle continues to find new funding for TransLink for much-needed transit expansion without inflicting too much pain on already heavily taxed residents and motorists.

Gas taxes, vehicle levies and tolls are all hugely unpopular, raising the spectre that political paralysis may freeze any improvements, including the Evergreen Line.

So here’s one provocative proposal that might help put a dent in both problems: Double TransLink’s current residential property tax rates.

But at the same time, create a homeowner grant that rebates 50 per cent of the TransLink tax.

Like the homeowner grant on municipal property tax, the TransLink version would exclude second vacation homes and disqualify owners who aren’t Canadian citizens or landed immigrants.

There’d be no change in the $230 a year in property tax the average resident homeowner pays for a typical $650,000 house in Metro Vancouver. Most working folks would notice no difference.

But the transportation authority would suck twice as much cash from foreign buyers, other non-resident owners and speculators.

A $4-million luxury condo owned by a Hollywood starlet, Shanghai business magnate or Alberta oil tycoon – who jets in once or twice a year – might bring $2,800 to TransLink each year instead of the current $1,400.

And why shouldn’t they pay more?They come to enjoy Vancouver’s legendary

livability yet make no permanent commitment to the region and use scarce housing inefficiently.

Others who would pay more are qualifying residents with homes worth more than whatever cap is set for the benefit. (The civic grant is phased out for homes worth more than $1.3 million.)

TransLink currently collects nearly $300 million a year in property tax. Not all of that is residential and only a small fraction comes from non-qualifying homeowners. But doubling what they pay might still generate an extra $20 or $30 million a year – a significant chunk towards TransLink’s $70-million-a-year upgrade plan, perhaps avoiding the use of one of the less palatable revenue sources.

And if a selective TransLink tax hike on non-residents or other owners of ritzy homes takes even a bit of the juice out of our overheated real estate market, so much the better.

editorial

The forehead never used to be that important.

Time was that it was merely the slab of dead space between the hairline/scalp and the bony feature of the skull above the eyes.

It was too vertical to hold sunglasses by itself (that’s what the supraorbital ridge is for) and had few distinguishing features on its own, other than being a palate for wrinkles to show character at a certain age.

It needed little attention, maybe a dab of sunscreen in the summer.

The only function of sorts was providing some muscle power for facial expressions.

But it appears technology has now radically changed the forehead and what it can offer us.

Little did we know that the new forehead has the power to replace other sensory organs – namely the eyes.

I’ve seen it, with my own actual eyes – albeit with the help of polarized sunglasses to cut through the glare while driving.

It’s true. The forehead is the new

driver’s radar.I saw it yesterday, I see it today and I’ll

see it tomorrow, all around me on my commute.

To my left: A young woman in aVW Golf. She’s wearing sunglasses,

face down behind the steering wheel at a traffic light. There’s a non-vocal discussion of some sort going on with her personal electronic device.

How will she know when the light turns green? Her forehead will tell her.

To my right: A guy in a commercial van is having a good read on his cellphone. In front of him is a steering wheel and traffic moving at 80 km/h or more.

Thankfully, his forehead is facing the windshield – how else

could he navigate without it?On my left: A banged-up mid-1980s

five-door Corolla with an octopus-shaped crack that drapes the windshield.

With a forehead totally in control, a 20-something blond driver with eyes down pokes at her BlackBerry during a left turn at a nearly red light. Her baby, strapped in the back seat, should be

taking notes.In front of me: A lady tries to make a

left turn in her Beemer at a yellow light. I’m sure she’s safe, since her forehead’s close cousin, the temple, is at the helm. It must be a nice chat – too good to pass the phone to her three passengers.

Behind me: The classic hybrid, forehead and temple working together, as a guy in a truck skulks down to his left, having a conversation with a little black box next to his ear. Is the forehead jealous of the temple?

I often see those hybrids from behind in silhouette or in my rearview mirror, where the driver’s head is tilted left of the headrest while talking, right of it for reading and texting.

The straight-on forehead is the most fascinating. It’s common enough that one can see it every few minutes in heavy traffic at moderate speeds or at stop lights.

Since I’m driving, I can’t exactly watch these people for long and make mental notes about timing – how long will their foreheads be in control?

I guess it’s like the tides, set to their own intervals.

Or perhaps there’s another factor in play – maybe another sense that comes into effect in times of stress or possible danger. Multi-tasking these days can be a minefield.

Be thankful that the forehead has moved to its rightful place in the narrative of human evolution.

No fear of retributionEditor: Re: Call For for calm in Crescent Beach, Aug. 18.

We are appalled at the brazen attack and gang beating of Erik Seiz by teenagers at Crescent Beach.

Had Seiz been a lawyer or judge, those hoodlums would have been put in jail; instead, they were released to their parents.

They should have spent the night in jail – separately – and their parents called early in the morning, and perhaps that might frighten them into not wanting to do it again.

I hope Seiz and BC Medical sue each of the parents for monies lost in medical costs and the pain and suffering Seiz is going to have to endure because their kids are out drinking and looking for trouble.

What is happening here? Why are there so many gangs of kids with nothing to do but create disturbances?

What are we – society – doing wrong? Are we so lenient in our legal system that no one has any fear of retribution any more?

Obviously, something must be done, and done soon. These kids need to be dealt accordingly.Pat Porter, Surrey

Blame those responsibleEditor:

I would like to commend Vancouver Police Dsepartment Chief Jim Chu for his candor, concerning the lack of charges laid here as opposed to those laid in the U.K.

My only criticism is that he did not expand sufficiently to lay blame where it rightfully belongs.

The difference, as pointed out, between Vancouver and London is that we have Pierre Trudeau’s Charter of Rights, while Britain works on the criminal system that we used prior to the Charter of 1982.

There was absolutely nothing wrong with that system and, in fact, the majority of citizens felt safer then than they do now. In fact, police here used to lay charges the same as has been done in London.

After the charter introduction, accountability for virtually everything was foisted on the police rather than the offending individuals.

The bringing of the administration of justice into disrepute has already been accomplished by the judiciary themselves.

In Canada, many or most lawyers have been made wealthy since 1982 dealing with ancillary detail, rather than substance, with respect to criminal matters.

At the same time, victims have been neglected, belittled and retaliated against for identifying criminals and their behaviour. At the same time, criminals have been treated with kid gloves, so as not to

correct their errant behaviour. Small wonder that fewer victims

of crime come forward. In essence, do not blame the

police – or in this case the lack of their presence in numbers – for the actions of those who have been coddled and not punished adequately for their behaviour, but rather, examine the fundamental cause of the behaviour of the miscreants themselves.

For every charter “right” that these folks have, there are far more responsibilities that they fail to recognize. Jim Simpson, Surrey

We’re ready to join SurreyEditor: Re: Future of White Rock looks north, Aug. 18 letters.

White Rock has never made any sense economically – and given its geographic configuration and residential nature, it never will.

Building highrises where they probably do not belong will never solve the problem.

The recent articulate and well-thought-out letters to the editor, and the informal online poll conducted by Peace Arch News, make it clear the public understands this.

So what are the things that really matter?1. Continued use of White Rock as

a term to describe the area on this side of 99 – unless it already has a name, like Ocean Park or Crescent Beach.

2. Good water. It used to be this was assured by being in the White Rock city limits but is now more likely assured by a more capable inspection service provided by a larger city like Surrey.

3. Positive support to White Rock employees, as they transition to a different administration.

4. And the real clincher: for current White Rock residents, a guarantee that we get a parking sticker for as long as we stay in the current boundaries of White Rock.

It is time for our local politicians – city and province – to apply some common sense and move the amalgamation forward expeditiously before more money is wasted on duplicate facilities, employees and services, planning studies, branding, etc.

Just remember the parking stickers!David Ulis, White Rock

As a resident of White Rock, I must say I am unhappy with the disparity in taxes we residents must pay when compared with Surrey, Richmond and other municipalities.

With increasing demands for

services and the rising costs of policing, fire protection and infrastructure, I believe our municipal government will soon find that being an “independent” municipality is unsustainable.

This being the case, we sorely need a person or persons to champion the cause of what I see as the inevitable re-amalgamation of White Rock and Surrey.

Duplication of services and the operation of another redundant local government make no sense.

To think that White Rock can continue into the future as is would be to deny reality.Gus Nielsen, White Rock

Appreciative for their help Editor:

You would have had to have an accident in White Rock on Sunday, Aug. 14 to really appreciate the quick, efficient and expert service provided by the paramedics of the ambulance and fire departments of White Rock and also the staff of the Peace Arch Hospital emergency department.

To all of them, I give my sincere thanks.Rod Drysdale, Surrey

Fencing off the forested area near Bayridge Elementary does little to help the neighbourhood, writes Heidi Bumann.

Editor: This is a story about our Bayridge neighbourhood.

Not very long ago, we had a big forest and marsh area, surrounded by many houses.

And then, 19 years ago, a school was built with a playground, soccer field and a large grass area. People brought their children, grandchildren and great-grand children. One bigger forest was left for us nature lovers, a smaller one for folks to walk through or sit in the shade of the over hanging tree branches.

With the school came terrible graffiti, weekend parties, broken bottles and lots of garbage but, on the whole, a lovely spot for the neighbourhood children and grown-ups.

And then, this spring, “big ideas” sprung from someone’s mind: “Let’s put a very high chain link fence around the small forest.”

If you sit in the grass outside the fence, you can still see the branches of the trees in the distance.

And if you are lucky you might even spot a bird.Well, that big fence is a big eyesore. But not to worry, children, even though the adults did

such a silly thing as putting the beautiful trees behind six-foot fences, these lovely trees will still be able to contribute to our healthier environment.

Of course, fences that large come with a big expense. Next spending spree for us. Dig up the ground under the swings, bring in men, machines, pipes and a mountain of wood chips. Take out all the pea gravel, dig, weed, put in a large cement barrier. Ouch, that could hurt when you fall on it, you could lose a tooth – but then there is always the tooth fairy.

Let’s just hope that someone’s big ideas turn out to be in everyone’s best interest, and we all hope that next year’s budget will not be big enough to have another “big idea” happen in or around our neighbourhood forests.Heidi Bumann, Surrey

And we live happily every after?

RE

TEMPORARY RELOCATION OF BUS LAYOVERThe City is making changes to improve the safety of North Bluff Rd from Martin Street to Johnston Road which recently necessitated a temporary relocation of the bus layover to the 1500-block of Foster Street. This temporary move allows work to be done on North Bluff

Road that will increase safety in the area. From widening the sidewalk, to encapsulating the hydro polls and the installation of an improved crosswalk, this work will greatly improve the safety of both pedestrians and vehicles along North Bluff Road.Although some parking stalls were aff ected by the move of the bus layover, this was the only location that would work from a safety and operational perspective. The parking on the west side of Foster Street is still available and there is city owned public parking available under the Miramar Tower that can be accessed from Russell Avenue. As mentioned, this is temporary and the cities of White Rock and Surrey, and the Coast Mountain Bus company, are working to identify a more suitable location for the permanent bus layover.It should also be noted that a bus layover is not a bus stop; it is an area where buses park for designated breaks for bus personnel.For more information, contact the department of Engineering and Municipal Operations at 604.541.2181.

The funeral service for a vet-eran Surrey firefighter killed in a parachuting accident last week has been announced.

Surrey Fire Captain Calvin B. McKibbon, 51, was skydiving near Seattle, Wash. when his parachute failed to deploy properly, became tangled, and was unable to slow his fall.

He was transported to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle where he succumbed to his injuries.

Funeral services for McKibbon will be held in South Surrey Fri-day, Aug. 26 at 1 p.m. at Victory Memorial Park, 14831 28 Ave.

Prior to joining the Surrey Fire

Department, McKibbon was an RCMP officer in South Surrey.

McKibbon, a captain at fire hall 15 in Clayton, had served with the Surrey Fire Department for 26 years. He was born on Oct. 26, 1959 and joined the fire department on Aug. 6, 1985.

McKibbon worked as a suppression firefighter for the majority of his career, but also worked for two years on the Electrical Fire Inspec-tion Team in an effort to

reduce the impact of marijuana grow operations in the commu-nity.

McKibbon was an avid golfer and hockey player. He enjoyed

travelling, hiking, dirt biking, water skiing and had recently begun pursuing his skydiv-ing licence when the accident occurred.

He was popular among his fel-low firefighters and will be deeply missed.

“He was a very knowledgeable and capable fire captain,” said Surrey Fire Fighters’ Associa-tion president Chris Keon. “His crews enjoyed working with him because of his friendly, easy-going attitude. He always had a big smile on his face.”

McKibbon is survived by his wife, Marisa, his children Mad-die, Eddie, Lorena and Anthony, grandchildren Thalia, Kian, Sam and Natalie, and his mother, Lorna McKibbon.

Surrey School Board chair Laurae McNally thinks a change made by the Ministry of Educa-tion is a smart move.

B.C.’s high school grads were leaving millions in scholarship money on the table by not writ-ing optional final exams, so the education ministry has changed the system to make sure the aid gets to students who do well on mandatory tests.

“It’s like the Ministry of Educa-tion is finally catching up to real-ity,” McNally said.

Optional scholarship exams for Grade 12 have been dropped for this school year, after post-sec-ondary institutions changed their admission criteria and no longer use Grade 12 optional tests.

Provincial scholarships will now be awarded to students based on the required provincial exams in place for Grades 10-12.

The exam system was changed in 2004.

“I think this is a progressive move,” said McNally.

“Now all the scholarship money is going to required exams only. That makes sense to me, because students are not writing the optional ones, they are only writ-ing the mandatory exams.”

Only one in five Grade 12 stu-dents chose to write optional scholarship exams. Provincial scholarships are typically $1,000, with the top 20 students receiv-ing $2,500. Before the changes, B.C. used to give out about $5 million worth.

Courses that now have required

provincial exams are Science 10, Apprenticeship and Workplace Mathematics 10, Foundations of Mathematics and Pre-calculus 10, Social Studies 11, B.C. First Nations Studies 12, Civic Studies 11, English 10, English 10 First Peoples, French 12 and Commu-nications 12.

“B.C.’s exam program continues to be one of the most rigorous in Canada,” Education Minister George Abbott said. “Our stu-dents compete globally, and we know one of the best ways we can support their bright future is through a solid post-secondary education.

“That’s why we’ve modernized our provincial scholarship cri-teria to better assist and reward students in their pursuit of higher education.”

Experien


perspectives…on the Semiahmoo Peninsula

Tricia LeslieBlack Press

He walks along the side of his gar-den plot, pointing out the differ-ent varieties of vegetables growing there, proud to see his work and

effort sprouting to life.While his snap peas are doing well – along

with several other vegetables and lettuces in plot No. 17 at White Rock Community Gar-den – Skylar Porter, 10, is waiting to harvest one particular crop from his garden.

“Here are my carrots,” he says, using both arms to showcase where the orange veggies are growing.

“I like carrots. They’re good to eat and they’re pointy. I like pointy things.”

Located at Centennial Park, behind the ten-nis courts, the 21-plot community garden is the first city-sanctioned one in White Rock. It opened at the end of June and boasts orderly,

contained garden plots and a city-provided watering system.

Holistic landscaper and site co-ordinator Lora Frost – plot No. 5 – has been involved with the startup of the shared garden, since the idea started growing more than two years ago.

“Our youngest member is 10 and our oldest is 72, and we have all ages in between,” Frost says. “I think people are more interested and more aware about where their food is coming from than ever before.”

Frost says that while some have joined simply because they have green thumbs and don’t have space to garden in their condo or apartment, others are concerned with reduc-ing their carbon footprint and eating locally – an idea that has gained strength with the 100-Mile Diet and other locavore-related

trends – while others don’t want pesticides used on their vegetables.

“A lot of people are definitely starting (to garden) for food security,” Frost says. “When

you plant it and water it and grow it, you know exactly where it came from and what was or wasn’t used to help it grow.”

Despite the late-June startup and rain in the earlier part of summer, many of the garden

plots are growing fabulously in the commu-nal space, with some getting a lot of shade.

But, Porter notes, that’s OK.“I chose my plot because you don’t want too

much sun. You want the sun sometimes, and the shade sometimes. And even rain some-times,” he says.

Children’s entertainer Max Tell, 65, notes Porter was just helping him weed his garden

– plot No. 9 – the other day.Tell remembers helping his parents in their

garden when he was younger, and going around to his neighbours on his bike to sell peas, corn and other veggies.

“My wife is on the (municipal) environ-mental committee, and she suggested, ‘why don’t we see if we can start our own garden?’” Tell says, holding some yellow beans, cherry tomatoes, snap peas and a double radish from his garden.

Coun. Helen Fathers is pleased to see one of White Rock council’s goals come to fruition, and notes a South Surrey community gar-den in nearby Crescent Beach has a wait list “about a century long.”

“It’s definitely needed,” she said, pointing to condo and apartment dwellers but also, to those who simply want to live a healthier lifestyle.

“I’d like to see this as only the beginning.”

Home Instead Senior Care’s White Rock location is inviting the com-munity to take part in a recipe contest that encourages families to prepare and share a meal with their senior loved one.

The contest is part of a public education program, Craving Com-panionship, that was created after a research study conducted for Home Instead Senior Care network showed that lack of the shared family experi-ence is the biggest mealtime challenge for seniors.

The program offers family caregiver tips and practical advice to encour-age companionship and easy healthy meals, and is designed to help combat elderly depression and loneliness.

“Many seniors need help planning and preparing nutritious meals,” Wes

Colby, owner of Home Instead Senior Care in White Rock, said in a release. “But that’s only part of the story. Many seniors want to relive a time around the dinner table when they are sharing their lives with the people they love most.”

For the Homemade Memories Recipe Contest, family caregivers are encouraged to find a favourite family dish they can share with a senior in their life.

Families then have until Sept. 15 to enter the recipe and a story about what makes the dish special.

Proceeds will go to the non-profit Home Instead Senior Care Foun-dation to benefit North American seniors. For more details, including guidelines and prizes, visit www.mealsandcompanionship.com

On Sept. 10, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., White Rock’s uptown business district invites the public to join the Uptown Street Festival, which is to include a chili cook-off, live music and kids activities.

And this year, everyone is being encouraged to bring their pet pooches to enjoy the event, in a first-ever festival dog show.

“They don’t have to be a particular breed or anything,” said White Rock BIA executive director Sherri Wilson Morrisette. “It’s all about having fun – and bringing your dog to have fun too.”

Prizes will be awarded, including Best Dressed and Dog the Judges Would Like to Take Home; dog portraits will also be offered by donation, with proceeds going to ovarian cancer research.

Participants can register the day of the Uptown Street Festival at Central Plaza.

The Main Stage – one of three stages set up for the day – will feature Red Beans and Rice, Yours Truly, Freedom 95 and more on the east side of Johnston Street and Russell Avenue.

The Todd Brewer School of Music Stage – in the north parking lot of Central Plaza – is to feature many talented students from the school, while the Performance Stage will have demonstrations from Live Yoga, FloMotion, Seung-Ri Wttu Black Belt

Academy and Arthur Murray Dance Studio at the latter’s Russell Avenue location.

Outside the Box Art Exhibition – a celebration of art in fibre and textiles – will be held at White Rock Community Centre on Russell Avenue and Knitopia on Johnston Road, and the Family Fun Zone will be in the south parking lot of Central Plaza with kid-friendly activities.

Back for its third year, the Chili Cook-off Contest invites visitors to vote for their favourite recipe and help raise funds for Rotary community projects.

A fundraising barbecue will also be held at Penguin Meats on Johnston Road.

The Canadian Mortgage Professionals (CMP) Top 50 Mortgage Brokers Awards has been announced, and six of the top 50 brokers in the country can be found in Surrey.

The winners were selected by the volume and number of their transactions.

“While volume is by no means the only mark of success in the mortgage brokering industry, it’s a measurement that shows someone’s ability to bring in business – a key trait to a thriving mortgage professional,” says Mortgage Broker News, which released the numbers.

Placing 12th in the country is Bill Macklem, with Dominion Macklem Mortgages, who

handed just over $91 million in volume last year in 300 deals.

Coming in at 22nd was Cindy Faulkner, with Verico Coastal Mortgages. She funded $65 million in mortgages, over 187 deals. Coming in at 24th, Sharnjit Gill, of Verico Superior Mortgage, funded $63.8 million in 193 deals.

At 30th spot is Luisah Hough, with Exclusive Mortgage Professionals. She funded $59 million in 140 deals.

Aman Khatkar, with Verico, was placed at 44, with $42.6 million in 130 deals.

And placing 48th, Tonia Jacobsen of Dominion Lending Centres Coastal Mortgages funded $41.8 million in 144 deals.

The Twin Towers, burning in the wake of a shocking terrorist attack, is an image that is likely seared into the minds of many around the world.

So many lives were lost on that horrible day in New York, NY – and many of those killed were first responders and emergency workers, including firefighters and police officers.

That’s why this year, a trip to the World Police and Fire Games 2011 in New York will be an especially poignant event for five White Rock firefighters.

Four of the firefighters going to the Games will compete: Bira Bindra in five-on-five basketball; Cordell Fulton in golf; Eric Kameka in two cycling events, and Richard Mann in soccer.

Bira, who travelled to the 9/11 site in New York in October of 2001, barely a month after the attack, is hoping this trip – nearly 10 years later – will be different.

“That first visit was pretty tough ... there was a lot of emotion involved,” he said.

“This time, I hope it’s more fun. It will be

interesting to see the progress they’ve made.”

Both he and Kameka are also looking forward to some good, healthy

competition.“It’s nice to compete

against your fellow co-workers,” Kameka said, adding it’s a “special” year for him too, because of the sombre anniversary.

The World Police and Fire Games get started Friday and run through Sept. 5, and will see 15,000 athletes competing in 65 sporting events.

Q I was in a lawsuit with my former wife. My rst lawyer told me that

the most I would be charged for legal fees by the other side if I lost was about 20-25% of my wife’s legal bill. I have a lot more money than her so I made it really dif cult for her to get information about

my business affairs to the point of not complying with court orders for production of my private corporate affairs which I belive is none of my wife’s business. I replaced my lawyer several times. Now I have gone to court and I now am told that I must pay pretty well all my wife’s legal bills. What gives? Was my rst lawyer wrong?

A No, he was right because in nearly all cases the winner gets about 20% to 25% of his or her legal

fees paid by the loser. However, if a Judge nds that your conduct of the action is egregious and disrespectful of court proceedings and deserving of punishment, then an order may be granted that you pay “special costs” which amount to paying most of your former wife’s legal bills including the extra costs of attempting to get information from you.

Ever thought of giving a furry bundle of joy a home?

No better time than now, say representatives at the Surrey branch of the BC SPCA.

They’re holding a special kit-ten adopt-a-thon Saturday from noon to 2:30 p.m. and encourage members of the public to come see the more than 220 cats and kittens available to good homes.

“We’ve got long-haired cats, short-haired cats, black cats,

white cats, brown cats, tabbies, calicos and torties galore,” says branch manager Valerie Sigler.

“If you’ve been thinking about getting a kitten or a cat, now is a great time to come see the won-derful animals we have.”

The shelter, located at 6706 152 St., has 65 cats and kittens, as well as another 180 kittens in fos-ter care in the community. Ani-mals at the shelter can be viewed during regular visiting hours,

while the foster kittens can be viewed during the adopt-a-thon. The shelter is also seeking tem-porary foster homes for mother cats with litters, orphaned kittens who need bottle feeding and for injured and adult cats.

The appeal comes at a time when BC SPCA branches across the province are dealing with an influx of kittens from sum-mer litters. Call 604-597-5655 for more information.

The days are getting shorter,

grey skies and dreary weather

an extended fall or winter trip

planning your travel insurance.

If you’re like many snowbirds,

you may even have an annual

period of time, here

are a few travel

insurance factors

to consider before

it covers you

not, most insurers, including

BCAA, will allow you to

Some companies offer

important to understand

how this coverage works.

Familiarize yourself with all

of the related definitions

and exclusions.

for ongoing treatment

Typically, emergency medical

insurance is for just that

– emergencies. It is not the

same as provincial health care,

which covers regular doctor

visits. Most benefits end once

the medical emergency is over

and will not cover

you for ongoing

c o n s u l t a t i o n

and treatment.

continuing with

visits could result in

a costly medical bill

for which you would

be responsible.

It’s important to

note that Health

Insurance BC may only cover

10% of medical expenses

incurred outside of the province.

Considering the high cost of

health care outside of Canada,

to ensure you have adequate

coverage through private

insurers to protect yourself from

or illness could cause.

Before you go, remember

to research and purchase the

insurance coverage to suit your

individual needs, so you can

Hannah SutherlandStaff Reporter

She never considered a career as a firefighter when she was younger because she didn’t know women could

become one. “It was never really a dream of mine

because I didn’t think it was something that was really possible,” says Surrey teen Tamara, a Grade 12 Queen Elizabeth Secondary student said.

It’s an unfortunate misconception amongst girls, according to Tim Dykeman, Surrey Fire Service’s recruitment co-ordinator, who said the field today has less gender

discrimination and is attracting more and more females.

“We are starting to see women who are saying, ‘you know what, I can do this,’” Dykeman said. “It’s just like welding or truck driving… it used

to be one of those things that just wasn’t considered because it wasn’t considered a career for women.

“I personally went through fire school with some fantastic women who earned a ton of my respect.”

Dykeman noted firefighting still generally tends to be male-dominated; Surrey Fire Service is almost 92 per cent male ,with eight female firefighters.

So, to encourage young women to consider the career path, a group of female firefighters from a dozen different departments in the Lower Mainland facilitated a mentorship camp for girls ages 16 to 18. The program

was funded by several municipalities, with the goal to introduce young women to the profession and coach them on how to pursue it as a career.

In May, Surrey Fire Service and Surrey Firefighters Association ran an essay contest through Surrey School District to select two local residents to participate in the camp.

When Tamara heard about the opportunity, she jumped on board, choosing her mother as the subject of her

essay on who inspires her most.“I thought, ‘hey, that’s a good idea, that’s a

new experience.”Tamara (who requested her last name not

be published) said she was intrigued by a career that would allow her to save lives, help the community and “do something that not many other people get to do.”

The program was held Aug. 5-7 at a training camp in Vancouver and the YWCA.

Tamara and the other contest winner, Queen Elizabeth Secondary grad Angela Barna, learned skills such as fire-extinguisher use, search and rescue techniques, working with ropes and knots and CPR training. Campers also mastered the Grouse Grind and attended a climbing gym.

“It was very demanding,” Tamara said, noting the 17 girls who took part helped each other get through it. “All of us have this courage to really want to help people and that made them so easy to become friends with and easy to trust.”

But it was the female firefighters training the girls who made the biggest impact, Tamara said.

“They were very empowering – they are all very strong women and they’re all very accomplished and happy,” she said. “Even if a girl felt like maybe firefighting wasn’t her thing, those women taught us so much anyways, no matter what career you’re going to be in.”

Tamara said she learned courage from the women, as well as the importance of companionship.

“You don’t have to go through everything alone – you have friends.”

Tamara said firefighting is still a possibility for her future, but the camp experience will be beneficial no matter what career paths participants take.

“It teaches us that we can be strong – we don’t need a man to do all this, we can do it ourselves. We might need other women to do it, but we can still get it done,” she said. “I think if you have the strength in your mind to do this, then you should definitely do this because it will definitely change your life.”

A Surrey woman who claims her neigh-bour’s cigarette smoke is a hazard to her health will have her case heard by the B.C. Human Rights Tribunal.

Kathryn and Douglas Arndt filed a complaint against Chelsea Gardens Strata Corp. and Maureen Puffer, who lives in a townhouse below them.

The couple alleges Puffer smokes in the garage, on the patio and in other areas of the strata complex and that the smoke wafts into their home, triggering Kathryn Arndt’s chronic asthma.

Chelsea Gardens is a 235-unit complex near 138 Street and 70 Avenue.

The Arndts’ problems with the neigh-bour’s smoking stretches back two years, when Kathryn Arndt wrote to the strata manager, Gerry Blanchard, saying her asthma had become worse as a result of Puffer’s smoking. Arndt said she had to go to the hospital emergency department in June 2009 for ventalin treatment.

Puffer was fined $25 by the strata the following year and was sent a warning letter that she was in contravention of the complex’s bylaws and those of the City of Surrey. Chelsea Gardens argued it had enforced its bylaws and that there was nothing more they could do under the circumstances.

The Arndts, however, maintain Chelsea

Gardens “has not taken effective steps to restrain” Puffer from smoking.

In her defence, Puffer questioned the degree to which the smoke affects the Arndts, arguing she wasn’t breaking any bylaws, and said she would “not be harassed or be a prisoner” in her own home.

The defendants – both Puffer and Chel-sea Gardens – applied to have the human rights case dismissed. In a decision Aug. 10, tribunal member Murray Geiger-Adams threw out the complaint against Puffer, but said the case against the strata will proceed. Geiger-Adams suggested media-tion might lead to a resolution rather than conducting a hearing.

An insurance firm that blamed a Surrey family for setting fire to their home has been ordered to pay more than $160,000.

The Sidhu family bought a home at 13875 88 Ave. in 1990, and in 2005 purchased fire insurance from Wawanesa. On Feb. 7, 2005, their home caught fire, a blaze determined to be arson.

“Wawanesa refused to pay them for the loss because they allege the Sidhus deliberately started the fire in order to recover the insurance money,” Justice Trevor Armstrong wrote in a ruling made public last week.

Armstrong found no compelling proof the Sidhus started the fire.

Six years after the initial claim, the court ordered Wawanesa to pay $110,968 for property loss and $50,000 in damages.

Three Metro Vancouver parks have made a list of Canada’s most trash-infested shorelines, including two near the Surrey Delta border.

Kanaka Creek Regional Park in Maple Ridge was second-worst in the nation, according to organizers of the Great Canadian Shoreline Cleanup.

The fourth most littered shoreline was Tom Hopkins Ravine Park in Delta (11693 - 98 Ave.), followed by fifth-place

Brownsville Bar Park along the Fraser River in Surrey (11931 Old Yale Rd).

The rankings were based on the amount of garbage collected during last year’s annual shoreline cleanup.

Volunteers collected 5,000 kilograms of garbage per kilometre at the worst-ranked site, a creek in Sydenham Ontario. Kanaka Creek yielded 3,200 kilograms per kilometre, while Brownsville Bar yielded 1,200.

“The amount of litter that

was removed is remarkable and, if neglected, could have serious impacts on the health of our waters,” said Tony Maas, director of the World Wildlife Fund’s Freshwater Program. The cleanest shoreline in B.C.?

Terrace’s Ferry Island municipal park in the Skeena River.

Volunteers are urged to register and nominate sites for this year’s Great Canadian Shoreline Cleanup from Sept. 17 to 25.

Surrey has developed a heated and enclosed picnic shelter so people can gather year-round, no matter what the weather conditions.

A group that regularly gathers at North Surrey Community Park for card playing met with the city’s parks committee and asked for the improved shelters.

The prototype, which was

designed and built for $50,000, was completed last week and has been put at North Surrey Community Park, in the 15800-block 97A Avenue.

The structure will be tested for about a year, then it’s believed competitive bidding can bring additional shelters at about $35,000 to $40,000 apiece.

The shelters lock at night to keep vandals out and the walls are made of a clear, scratch-

resistant plastic. It is also resistant to graffiti, which will reduce cleanup costs.

“This is one that hasn’t been built in North America, we understand,” said Coun. Mary Martin, who couldn’t say how many will be built if the test period is successful.

“I can say we get requests every single week or every month. We just want to make sure this one is going to be a successful one.”

The planets are beginning to align for Crystal Debruyn.

The Earl Marriott grad – and former Miss Peace Arch News in the 2003 White Rock Youth Ambassadors program – is already attracting international attention for her role in the B.C.-produced independent feature Neutral Territory.

Last weekend, Debruyn was named best supporting actress, while co-star Laura McCarthy received best actress honours, at the World Music and Independent Film Festival in Washington, D.C.

It’s odd, the budding film and stage actress notes, in that Neutral Territory was virtually her first film role of any kind – aside from a few short student projects.

Even more unexpected is the fact that she’s only now reaping the rewards for a three-week shoot that wrapped two years ago, in 2009.

“It took a while to get the film edited and ready to enter film festivals, but when it did it was like a rocket,” she said.

“We’ve been in so many film festivals this year. After a couple of years of not seeing anything, it’s like ka-boom. You don’t want it to end.”

Among showcases for Neutral Territory have been the Beijing, Beloit, Lucerne and New York City international festivals, the Interrobang festival in Des Moines, where it was named best feature of 2011, and the Treasure Coast festival in Florida, where Vince Arvidsen won the award for best cinematography.

Vancouver will get its turn when the film rolls into the Rio Theatre (1660 E. Broadway) for a red-carpet premiere set for 6 p.m., Sept. 11 (for more information visit neutralterritory.net or email [email protected]).

It’s not the B.C. premiere – that honour went to Burns Lake, where director Josias Tschanz spent most of his teen years, and where most of the movie was shot.

It’s a deeply personal project for Tschanz, who also played the leading role, co-wrote the original story with scenarist Joel Mark Harris and co-produced with Harris.

A contemporary western, Neutral Territory tells the tale of Henry Huge (Tschanz), son of a Swiss immigrant, who is in line to become a partner in his law firm and marry the boss’s daughter, Heidi (Debruyn).

But Henry has made a financial investment that threatens all his plans. To gain capital he decides to sell the family ranch in the B.C. Interior, but there’s one big snag – Werni, his aging and stubborn father, who has no intention of either being evicted or placed in a nursing home.

Adding to the personal nature – and realism – of the film was Tschanz’ casting of his real-life father, Hans, in the quirky gift

role of Werni.“We said to him, you may be

a farmer, but you’re probably the best actor here,” Debruyn said. “He was just so real.”

Although Debruyn and the cast and crew were strangers

when they first drove up to Burns Lake together, she said they soon bonded through an intense shooting schedule of 13-hour days, invigorated by the natural beauty of the area and the hospitality and co-operation of Tschanz’ own family and the rest of the local population.

“It was so much fun,” she said, adding that everyone involved in the production pitched in to make it work.

She got the chance to audition for Tschanz through a mutual friend, she said, and originally planned to read for the role of Rebecca, the ex-girfriend.

But he was adamant, almost from the beginning, that she would be perfect for city-girl Heidi.

“He said ‘no, no, here you go – I want you to read this character’. Heidi is very much a ‘Daddy’s girl’ who doesn’t know much about ranch life.”

And while Heidi could have been written and played as a one-dimensional character, Debruyn said she was drawn to the part because of the way the character evolves through the challenges of the drama.

“She does truly care for her fiancé, but she’s lived so long being that person. She was a great character to work on – she’s also very girly, and so am I, so that was a lot of fun.”

Audiences closer to home will remember Debruyn from last year’s White Rock Players Club pantomime, Robinson Crusoe, in which she played the principal girl, Lady Pamela.

Those with longer memories may recall

early appearances in ballet with the Mi Cher Academy, or chorus roles in such Marriott musicals as Annie and Anything Goes.

Studying with Rick Harmon at Marriott whetted her appetite for musical theatre, which influenced her studies at Capilano College, and her stint in the cast of Oklahoma for Theatre Under the Stars in 2007.

While she is always drawn to the thrill of performing in front of a live audience, Debruyn, who also works as a contract pre-school drama and dance instructor, said she is even keener on the potential for subtle character development that film provides.

Most of all, Debruyn wants to continue to work in film with an emphasis on passion-fueled independent productions, as opposed to big budget, B.C-as-Hollywood-backlot projects.

“Working on an independent film is so gratifying,” she said.

“You’re not there just because of what you look like – they want your knowledge as well, they want to see what you can bring to the part. And that’s exciting.”

Surrey performers were among the top three prize winners at the PNE’s Star Showdown talent contest winners in the finals competition Aug. 23.

Adult dance team SiniGang – featuring Angelo Galedo, Adrian Cabanos, Ervinn Tangco, Kevin Locsin and Ronn Micah Reyes – took the third-place spot in final judging, winning $1,000.

First place was claimed by youth performer Emma Pedersen, 19, of Squamish, whose singing of Leonard Cohen’s Hallelujah scored her the top

prize of $5,000 and the opportunity to represent B.C. at the Canadian Youth Talent Competition at the Canadian Association of Fairs and Exhibitions’ annual conference in London, Ontario this November.

Adult singer-guitarist Des Larson, of Courtenay, took the $2,000 prize for second place in the contest.

Surrey was also well-represented among contestants who made it to the finals, including the youth band Mortal Soil (Stefan Grabowski, Michael James and

Tek Leang), and, in the Kids Division, singer-keyboardist Benjamin Dunnill, hip hop crew CNC (Katie Adina, Angelica Emnacen-Boyd, Gabriel Galedo, Dominique Mailloux, Vanessa Pankhurst and Joshua Zaporteza) and singer Nhemy-Jjr Cepeda.

Local semi-finalists in the Youth Division included White Rock dancer Angella Slaunwhite and Cloverdale singer Sydney Balston.

Adult singer Dani Fuentes of Surrey was also a semi-finalist in the annual contest.

The Semiahmoo Peninsula is going to be stepping ‘Outside The Box’ starting next month – and the only question is how it will ever get back inside again.

A seven-week celebration of fibre and textile art, Outside The Box – spearheaded by internationally recognized artist and White Rock resident Pauline McLean Dutkowski – is highlighting an idiom often overlooked by those more focused on painting and sculpture.

But, even more importantly, the revolutionary festival, which runs Sept. 1 to Oct. 21, is breaking down many of the boundaries that separate artistic disciplines and create a schism between arts and business – and completely ignoring the artificial border between White Rock and South Surrey.

“I suppose I’m a bit of a ‘disturber,’” admits the genial, British-born Dutkowski.

“I’m encouraging people to think outside the box – and it’s not just about this festival. That’s what we need to do every day.”

Particularly surprising is that while the festival has enlisted the active participation of arts groups like the White Rock and South Surrey Art Society and the Peace Arch Weavers and Spinners; Semiahmoo Arts, the City of White Rock, White Rock Library, White Rock Museum and Archives and the White Rock BIA, Surrey Public Library, and businesses including Semiahmoo Shopping Centre, Dutkowski has managed it all without a society, a board, or government funding.

How is this possible?First of all, Dutkowski

has a record of positive pragmatism that goes back at least as far as her decision to become a full-time artist in 1972, and an infectious enthusiasm that has allowed her hand-woven tapestries and multi-layered, felted and stitched fibrescapes

to shrug off the ‘crafts’ label and become valued works of art frequently exhibited and keenly collected throughout the Americas, Europe and Asia.

A resident of White Rock for the past three years with her photographer husband, Don, she was deeply involved with the Richmond Arts Council (she’s a past-president) for some 11 years, and equally active

in the arts community in the Chilliwack area, where she and Don lived for 18 years after that.

Her practical experience also includes being a delegate to the first world conference on Arts, Politics and Business at UBC in 1986; organizing the Celebration of Ability – a three-week arts festival for the disabled in Richmond in 1989 – and serving

FOR GENERATIONS

presented by

www.royalbcmuseum.bc.ca


on a Commonwealth Games bid committee.

A particularly proud moment for her was participating in an art exhibition in the Louvre in Paris in 2009 – it was a visit there with her parents when she was 11 that she credits with sparking her fascination with the visual arts.

But she traces the roots of her pragmatic approach even further back into that childhood.

“I grew up in wartime and post-war England,” she said. “You tended to use what you had. You didn’t complain – you made the most of things and used your imagination.”

She said Outside The Box “came out of the ashes of something else that was going to happen last year – the Hands Across The Pacific exhibition.”

While she had secured the use of space in Bosa’s Miramar Village for the touring exhibit, the venue proved unsuitable for the requirements of the show.

Undaunted, Dutkowski set about creating something new – and the energy with which others have joined in has been “astonishing.”

“I didn’t want to tell people what to do – I presented it to people and said ‘how would you like to participate?’,” she said.

Another secret is that it’s an extended event, providing more opportunities to participate, instead of

conflicting with other events planned in a small time period.

And the very notion of fibre art itself is versatile and all-encompassing, Dutkowski said.

“Paper is a fibre, canvas is a fibre – music is made with fibres. I’m even hoping to have restaurants involved – a taste of fibre,” she laughed.

“The main idea is to have fun.”

Among upcoming events under the Outside The Box banner will be:

• the launch of Fibre Fusion, a six-

sports…on the Semiahmoo Peninsula


All four British Columbia age-grade rugby teams medaled at the 2011 National Festival Sunday, with the Men’s Under-18 team and Men’s Under-16 team crowned national champs. The BC Women’s Under-18 team captured silver and the U16 BC-2 Men’s team took home bronze.

“It was really good. The boys all played really well and it was a great team effort,” B.C. head coach Jeff Williams said.

The most heated rivalry in Canadian rugby took centre stage on Sunday afternoon in the Men’s U18National Final, with reigning champs Ontario taking on B.C.

The highly anticipated championship final lived up to expectations with B.C. winger and Semiahmoo Secondary grad Liam Murphy-Burke (Bayside RFC) scoring the game-winning intercept try to lift B.C. to a 38-33 victory.

“That game may have been great for the fans, but the coaching staff were on the sidelines close to having heart attacks,” said a relieved Williams.

“That is how finals should be, with both sides putting everything into it and the game going right until the end.”

In a match that saw the lead change hands on several occasions, Ontario drew first blood to go up 5-0 when their prop Curtis Lawson barrelled over for a try. The score was converted by Lucas Hammond.

Ontario were up 21-14 at the half but let B.C. back into the game early in the second frame when scrum half Jorden Best (Abbotsford RFC) broke through for a try, with B.C. tacking on a conversion and a penalty.

The final 20 minutes of play were an entertaining display of high-scoring rugby with the lead changing hands three times.

With seven minutes to play,

Ontario was in the driving seat with a 33-31 lead and were pressing deep inside B.C.’s 22.

Ontario swung the ball wide and a miss-pass move turned disastrous as Murphy-Burke intercepted and ran the ball back for the game winning try. B.C. fullback Connor Hunter (Abbotsford RFC) converted for the 38-33

score line and his side managed to fend off any further attacks from

their Eastern foes.“You have to give credit to

Ontario because they posed a lot of problems for us,” said Williams.

“Their 8-9-10 combination was dangerous and caused us to make a lot of mistakes. That was a close game just as we expected, but our guys played well and they deserved it.”

Bayside’s Quinton Willms and Dan Lee also played on the U18 squad alongside Murphy-Burke, to help capture the gold.

Williams noted all the U18

players really came together to play their best.

“The coaching staff was just blown away by the camaraderie among the guys,” he said.

“It was probably one of the best groups I’ve ever coached.”

In U16 rugby action, the B.C. gold squad went undefeated throughout the entire tournament. Bayside’s Calixto Martinez, Alex Klassen and Shane Dagg were on the team that trounced Newfoundland 88-5 in the championship final, while Nick

Collett played with the B.C. U16 blue squad that won the bronze medal, beating Ontario 22-17 in an overtime thriller.

The two B.C. U16 squads met in the semi-final, with the gold team winning 29-17.

Silver is nothing to sneeze at either. Bayside’s Sarah Gordon, Jordan Palesch and Meghan Wellis came home with silver medals with the U18 Women’s squad.

B.C. went undefeated in in round-robin play, but fell to Ontario 34-18 in the final.

Several local seniors were behind the ball in Trail last weekend.

The bocce ball, that is.Seven senior athletes

– including four from South Surrey and two from White Rock – travelled to the Interior to participate in the BC Senior Games, which were held in Trail, Castlegar and Nelson.

“It was great – just a great experience for everyone,” said Audrey Bragagnolo, whose husband was among the competitors.

“Everyone enjoyed the competition. Everyone was in high spirits.

“All the organizers, all the volunteers – it couldn’t have gone better.”

And the competition

went well, too.“In every category

the competition was challenging but friendly,” Bragagnolo said. She noted that competing in bocce is quite different from casual play in the park or at the beach.

“There’s quite a few rules… it’s actually quite complicated.”

Still, five of the seven athletes garnered medals: gold in Men’s Pairs (Zeff Baldonero and Lino Bragagnolo); silver in Women’s Pairs (Carol Adams and Arnalda Benetti) and bronze in Women’s Singles (Maria d’Astolfo).

“It’s quite an accomplishment. They’re all good players and should all be proud,” Bragagnolo said.

Young Semiahmoo Peninsula baseball players know there’s more to the game than winning.

Members of the 12-year-old Selects squad, comprising members of the White Rock-South Surrey Baseball Association, came home this week from the Cal Ripken World Series lacking wins, but brimming with a wealth of experiences and friendships.

“It was really cool. It was unbelievable how much fun it was. It was so hard to leave,” said player Spencer Bonn.

Spencer said he has a lot of new friends on Facebook – and he even won an award – but that paled in comparison to the great time he had.

“It was an amazing experience,” he enthused.

Held in Aberdeen, Md., the Cal Ripken World Series brings together top 11- and 12-year-old baseball players from around the world.

The Selects earned the right to represent Canada at the series by beating Calgary in a best-of-three qualifying set of games earlier this month.

While the Selects didn’t manage to post any wins, they played several nearly errorless games against Mexico and Korea, White Rock assistant coach Melissa Bonn said.

Plus, the team got to face the powerhouse Japanese team – a pre-tournament favourite – first in the series, with one of Japan’s pitchers unofficially clocked at 84 m.p.h. during the game.

Bonn noted players from all the other teams are the best from their entire countries, while the Selects is a team of 14 players only from White Rock and South Surrey.

The Selects lost 9-4 to Australia and 13-2 to the Dominican Republic, but Bonn agreed with son Spencer about the positive experience –

the friends made, the fantastic volunteers and organizers and the great facilities in Maryland.

“I am so sad it’s over. It was so much fun,” she said.

“The boys really enjoyed wearing the Canada across their chests and hanging with the boys from from around the world. The Mexicans even

borrowed one of our bats – they consider it good luck.”

Two Selects players won awards: Marc Ashford won the Gold Glove All-Defensive Team award, while Spencer Bonn was awarded the Cal Ripken Sportsmanship Award, which was presented by the umpires from the series.

Diane was such a positive force, she had a zest for life that was infectious and her strength and faith were inspir-ing. Her passion in her life was her family. She was an amaz-ing daughter, wife, mother and Grammie.

Diane also dedicated 23 years as a Director for the Royal City Youth Ballet Company. She will be remembered for her vi-sion, leadership, integrity, heart, belief in people, cou-rage, inspiration, faith, ele-gance and love.

We were all blessed to know her and be part of her life.

Funeral Mass and celebration of life will be held on Friday, August 26 at 1:30 pm at Good Shepherd Catholic Church 2250 150 Street Surrey, BC. Reception to follow. Condo-lences may be left online at www.kearneyfs.com. In lieu of fl owers donations can be made to the BC Cancer Foun-dation.

Canadian Tire

As the Peninsula’s most trusted one-stop shop for more than 10 years, Canadian Tire at South Point Exchange continues to build a reputation for great customer service, outstanding deals and a huge selection of items for your home, garden and more.

If you haven’t visited the South Surrey location recently, you’ll want to swing by and check out their recent renovations and expansions.

The store now carries a full line of major appliances – such as fridges, stoves, washers and dryers –

in a range of models and price points and their popular camping department has been largely expanded to meet the needs of the community’s ever-growing population.

The sports department has also grown – especially the range of hockey equipment and apparel.

Information kiosks are now set up throughout the store, where customers can have access to the Internet to reference merchandise online – another feature that makes shopping at Canadian Tire South Point easy and enjoyable.

Over in the automotive department, check out the huge tire selection – including many more National brands than were carried previously – it’s never too early to start thinking about winter tires!

And of course the end of summer means back to school is just around the corner, and Canadian Tire is the perfect one-stop-shop for everything you’ll need before your kids hit the classrooms.

They carry a full range of school supplies, plus you can fi nd book shelves, computer desks and chairs and other furniture to help create the perfect workspace in your home.

Though part of a well-known nation-wide chain, South Point Canadian Tire is heavily involved in the White Rock/South Surrey community and dedicated to making a difference whenever possible.

“We have a passion for where we live and do business,” owner Dan Higgins said. “Giving back to the community is important, and great customer service is a part of that approach.

Canadian Tire takes pride in its Jumpstart program – a community-based charity that helps kids aged 4-18 participate in organized sports and recreation such as hockey, dance, soccer and swimming, so they can develop important life skills, self esteem and confi dence..

They’ve also partnered with a variety of other organizations on fundraising endeavours.

For everything you need under one roof, visit the newly renovated Canadian Tire at South Point Exchange today.

We just introduced two new facials which are highly active facials which are all natural (organic) and will promote repair and remodeling in the skin.

New to Pure is an exciting line up of beauty services. In addition to medical and laser services, clients can now stop in for manicures, gel nails, Bio Sculpture nails, Envoque nails, pedicures.

Check PointPlumbing

With a commitment to customer satisfaction and nearly 100 years of combined industry experience, Check Point Plumbing is proud to offer top-notch, knowledgeable service you can count on.

Whether it’s a clogged sink, a leaky hot water tank or a gas fi replace on the fritz, the team at Check Point Plumbing will get the job done quickly and accurately, according to co-owner Beth Henderson.

“We do the job right the fi rst time and ensure that the customer is satisfi ed,” Henderson said. “We’re very proud of the work we do.”

With winter just a few months away, this is the time of year many homeowners think about replacing their old, ineffi cient furnace with a newer and more effi cient model.

In some respects, today’s high-effi ciency furnaces, which generally start around $4,000, are better engineered than the $30,000 car you drive off the lot.

With up to 95 per cent effi ciency, more heat goes into your home than up the chimney with older models.

Redesigned heat exchangers – complete with recovery coils – better insulation with state-of-the-art controls and energy-effi cient blower motors, some with four speeds and quiet as a whisper, all provide long-lasting comfort.

High and low-fi re gas valves combined with variable speed blowers provide the perfect amount of heat required – for warmer days, the gas valve fi res on low mode and the blower cuts in on low speed; for cold days, both the gas valve and the blower operate on high to bring your home up to a set temperature, where it will stay comfortably.

Also important is a good digital thermostat to replace the old mechanical style you may still have.

The friendly folks at Check Point Plumbing would be more than happy to visit your home to check out your existing unit and make some recommendations.

Don’t forget, federal EcoEnergy grants are still available as an incentive to make your home more energy effi cient – call Check Point today to fi nd out more about this program and all other services they provide.

With an emphasis no providing great customer service and competitive pricing, Check Point Plumbing is your best choice for all your plumbing, heating and gas fi tting needs.

Turnabout

Since expanding from their Johnston Road location earlier this year to a store three times larger at Peninsula Village, Turnabout has quickly grown to become a hit for fashion lovers looking to refresh their wardrobe in a fun and socially-conscious way.

The upscale consignment boutique is perfect for those who want to easily convert once-loved pieces into cash – from casual jeans to elegant ball gowns, one-of-a-kind jewelry to designer handbags, the knowledgeable and friendly team at Turnabout considers it all. It’s also a method of shopping that those with concerns about the environment can feel good about – keeping clothes out of the land ll and putting them into a new owner’s closet through a process that’s fun and rewarding.

Their men’s department – which carries quality suits, ties, shoes and more – is also continuing to grow, according to Turnabout owner and fashion-lover Joy Mauro.

“Our new South Surrey location is a hit, and we’re seeing lots of new consignors and customers,” Joy says, noting the environmentally friendly side to consignment fashions is a huge factor in her store’s growing popularity. “Our men’s division is also growing steadily.”

It’s been more than 33 years since Joy rst decided to pursue her passion for fashion, when she opened her rst location on South Granville in 1978. That store – along with a second location on West Broadway in Kitsilano – quickly became one of the city’s top destination for consignors and treasure-hunters alike.

Turnabout at Peninsula Village is a stylish, well-organized 3,600 square-foot shop – where Joy and her staff are able to share their knowledge, passion and outstanding customer service with a whole new market.

“Our clients shop the world,” Joy says. “We pride ourselves on selecting popular, high-end and import labels that are almost brand new. Most of our pieces are generally not more than two seasons old.”

Connie Patjas, Turnabout general manager, is pleased to welcome Jill Fullan to the Turnabout team. Jill has an extensive retail background and will act as Retail Manager for all three locations.

With an exciting season of fall fashion just around the corner, now’s the time to do an overhaul on your closet and weed out some pieces that you’re ready to part from – including purses and jewelry, which Joy says are in high demand.

Whether you’re just starting out, or are a more serious photographer, Foto Source is the place for local knowledgeable service and quality products at nationally competitive prices.

From what started as a small camera counter in the back of a drug store in Central Plaza, Foto Source has grown to become White Rock’s only successful independent photography store.

Among the 9 sales associates at Foto Source there is a combined 200+ years of photography experience, so you’re sure to fi nd the answers to any photographic questions you may have. As well, the staff lives within the community and can help you with information on the popular, as well as some relatively unknown, photography locations.

In addition to helping you select the best equipment based on your photographic needs, the staff can also advise you on photography techniques, such as the best angle and lens to shoot local landmarks as well as the best time of day to get the proper lighting.

As part of Canada’s largest independent group of retail photography stores – there are now over 260 locations across the country – Foto Source has the buying power to be competitive with any other retail outlet. So not only can you rest assured that the pricing is fair and competitive, but you’re also getting the advantage of local, dedicated and knowledgeable service that can be hard to fi nd at a large big box retailer.

In-store kiosks, as well as Internet ordering, makes printing your digital fi les quick and easy, and the staff can also advise you on a variety of personalized gift items.

Foto Source also offers classes on how to get the most out of your digital camera. Whether you want to learn more about your camera’s features to maximize your photography possibilities or to learn computer program techniques to spruce up your digital photos, Foto Source can help you learn all about digital photography.

Gold KeyVolkswagen

With a commitment to putting the customer fi rst, a state of the art showroom and top-of-the line automotive services, it’s no wonder GoldKey Volkswagen has earned a reputation as being the best bet for VW automotive services on the Peninsula.

It has also earned them the title as #1 in Volkswagen customer service in the province for the past four years running, in addition to being the only B.C. dealership to win the Wolfcrest Award – a national honour recognizing best all around dealerships – two years in a row (2009/2010).

While GoldKey’s stellar customer service record sets them apart from the competition, operations manager Peter Saieva said the staff and management take great pride in providing nothing but the best for their customers.

“Even though we have doubled in size over the past three years, we don’t treat people like numbers, he said. “We try and make sure everyone’s experience at our dealership is the best it can be.”

GoldKey strives to ensure every customer leaves with a smile on their face – and one way they do that is by offering competitive pricing for maintenance and repairs in their state-of-the-art facility at 2092 152 St., something a lot of people don’t think is possible at a dealer service centre.

“Most people think dealers are expensive to maintain their Volkswagens,” Peter said. “A lot of our customers are fi nding out that we’re not.”

In addition to providing effi cient and quality vehicle care from factory-trained technicians, GoldKey also keeps a large inventory or manufacturer-recommended parts in stock, which can be easily ordered on their website.

Offering fair prices and top-quality service to their customers is just one way GoldKey is unique in the industry – a commitment to supporting the White Rock / South Surrey community is another aspect that sets them apart.

And the support goes both ways – after 11 years of loyalty from local Volkswagen customers, Peter and the staff GoldKey Volkswagen would like to express their gratitude for being able to work in such a great community.

“We have the best Volkswagen customers in B.C.,” Peter said. “We wouldn’t be here today if it wasn’t for them. We would like to thank them for their support and for making us number one.”

This year the GoldKey team is looking forward to the arrival of the new 2012 Passat. The new Passat is now coming in a TDI model, some models are also coming equipped with the Fender Sound system, see dealer for details. Also to arrive this fall will be the All New Beetle!!

SPECIAL EVENT

Extreme Clothing

Looking for the hottest back-to-school fashions from the most popular brand names in skate, surf and snowboard apparel?

Look no further than Extreme Clothing at Grandview Corners.

Since opening its doors two years ago, Extreme has become a popular hot spot for fashion and accessories that appeal to laid-back trend setting men, women and youth, the store carries a large selection of hoodies, t-shirts, jackets, jeans and shoes.

While it may be tough to think about summer coming to an end, September is just around the corner, meaning plenty of great fall fashions have arrived at Extreme.

This year is expected to be all about sweaters, sweaters and more sweaters – everything from cardigans to Cowichan sweaters for both men and women.

Can’t bear the thought of parting with your favourite summer dress? No problem – simply layer up your dress with a cozy cardigan for the best early fall trend!

Staple fleece is always a must-have throughout fall and winter month – this season, keep an eye out for pieces from RDS and Element for both the guys and girls. Simple, basics in bright colours, with lots of emphasis on pullovers this season as well.

The military look is expected to be popular yet again this fall, with a focus on washed out pale/neutral colours. And back to school isn’t back to school without new denim – check out Extreme’s great selection of brand name men’s and women’s jeans.

When it comes to accessories, a great backpack is a must-have this time of year – especially with a laptop sleeve, which is key for the most up-to-date teens heading back into the classroom.

This fall’s key handbag is the concert bag – a teeny, tiny tote worn cross-body for a night out or simple day purse.

In addition to a large selection of the latest brand names and fashions, it’s the store’s customer service that makes Extreme Clothing a favourite shopping destination.

The owners and staff are thrilled for the opportunity to be a part of the small business community in the town they live in, and their love for what they do is evident in their commitment to helping others find that perfect outfit.

Keep a close eye on Extreme Clothing as we get closer to back to school time – weekly fall promotions, including two Tees for $29 – will be popping up in weeks to come, and are definitely not to be missed!

The Acoustica Hearing Difference. Acoustica Hearing, in partnership with Siemens, one of the world’s leading hearing aid manufacturers, has been making and servicing hearing aids for over a decade in the Lower Mainland.Most hearing aid manufacturers are lo-cated in Eastern Canada or the United States, meaning that consumers often fi nd longer wait times for delivery and repair of hearing instruments. Acous-tica Hearing is unique in Western Can-ada. They sell hearing aid products that are made locally, right on site, allowing delivery times to be dramatically short-er than their competitors. In fact, deliv-ery may take as little as 2 days in some cases, thus helping their customers get on with enjoying their lives sooner. Shop Local, Buy Local. Our clinics, lo-cated in West Vancouver, White Rock and Burnaby, are unique in that we do everything locally and have proudly served the Sunshine Coast and the Lower Mainland for over 12 years. Cost Savings to Our Customers. Acous-tica Hearing markets and repairs its own hearing aid products, managing to dramatically reduce the cost of manufacturing and cut down wait times, allowing those savings to be passed on to YOU the customer.Exceptional Service. We offer unbeatable value! Satisfaction guaranteed or money will be re-funded! Visit any of our clinics and experienced

licensed Hearing Instruments Practitioners will help you select from a wide range of the latest hearing aid technology best suited for you and

your lifestyle. Recently Acoustica Hearing Aid Clinic & Manufacturing, in partner-ship with SIE-MENS Hearing gave a presentation at a local Seniors Centre. Theresa Lee of Sie-mens spoke about Bluetooth Technology and Rechargeable Hearing Aids. She dis-cussed the benefits of Siemens Tek and Mini Tek. This bluetooth technology al-lows the use of cell phones, landlines and TVs with hearing aids. She also discussed how to use FM systems and reviewed the added capability of T-Coil with smaller hearing aids. Rechargeable Hearing Aids were also discussed, covering the environmentally friendly products used, the convenience of recharging every night and not chang-ing your hearing aid batteries and the ease of use for people with dexterity is-sues, including arthritis and the visually challenged.Due to the popularity of this presentation, Acoustica is planning another presenta-tion in the near future. To request that

Acoustica Hearing do a presentation in your area or for further information about future talks with Theresa Lee of Siemens, please call John or Reza Jahanshahi of Acoustica at 1-604-294-1080 and stay tuned for another great opportunity to hear the experts and get your questions answered.

A La PlageBoutique

The name means ‘on the beach,’ and that’s exactly where you’ll fi nd one of White Rock’s newest fashion hot spots, A La Plage Boutique.

Since opening at 14877 Marine Dr. earlier this year, boutique owner Nora Reilly has been working hard getting to know her wide range of customers – from Peninsula locals to visiting tourists – and spending lots of time fi nding out their fashion desires.

As a result, Nora aims to carry a variety of lines that will appeal to a range of customers seeking out the latest in clothes, shoes, jewelry, handbags and more.

“We’re hoping to offer a little bit of everything – something for every age group,” Nora explains.

With a background in childcare – as well as experience running an ice cream shop – this is Nora’s fi rst foray into the fashion industry, and she says she’s been enjoying the experience tremendously so far.

“It’s been great meeting all the new people who come in, and listening to what the customers would like to see in the store,” she says. “We’re looking forward to building our business up over the next year.”

Currently, A La Plage carries a variety of lines, inkling Tribal, Jag, Orly and Pretty Woman, to name a few. In the fall, Nora is thrilled to be introducing French Dressing Jeans, due in store in October.

While the fall fashions are expected to be as diverse as her client base, Nora says that purples and teals will likely be big colours this season, and, of course, sweaters, shrugs and jackets will be a hit once the temperature starts to cool.

For the latest in fun fashions that truly cater to what the customer wants, visit A La Plage Boutique on Marine Drive.

For close to 20 years, Chocolaterie Bernard Callebaut has been tantalizing the tastebuds of chocolate lovers on the Peninsula with their delicious chocolate treats.

Made with only the fi nest ingredients, these award-winning chocolates are world-famous, and after just one taste, it’s easy to see why.

The chocolaterie has sponsored Vintage Affair since its inception – a wine tasting gala that raises money for the White Rock South Surrey Community Foundation.

“It’s not just having the access to such delicious chocolate, but being able to share it with others,” says Jackie who can be found rolling truffl es and handing them out at Vintage Affair, A Taste of BC’s Finest), the WRSS Chamber of Commerce mixer at Semiahmoo House and Ocean Park’s community fundraiser.

“I always love to watch people’s faces when I give out samples at community events. You can see by their expressions that they’re experiencing absolute bliss!”

Jackie also raffl es huge chocolate Santa’s and Easter Bunnies from Chocolaterie Bernard Callebaut, with all proceeds going to the Food Bank operated by Sources Community Resource Centres.

Stepping inside the chocolate shop, one’s senses are taken to great heights.The decadent smell of rich, creamy chocolate wafts out of the store, tempting

chocolate lovers with its delicate molds, decadent bars, seasonal items and much, much more, all of which comes elegantly wrapped.

One can even fi nd the best baking supplies around – your home-baked goodies will be more popular than ever when they’re prepared with their baking bars, chocolate drops, shavings and cocoa power, all made with ingredients of the highest quality, with low sugar and high cocoa content.

If you haven’t been to this delectable South Surrey shop lately, you’ll want to drop in and check out the two new truffl es introduced earlier this summer – and keep a lookout for some other new treats that will be hitting the store this fall.

Visit Chocolaterie Bernard Callebaut at Peninsula Village Shopping Centre, and the friendly, knowledgeable staff will be happy to help you fi nd what you’re looking for – whether it’s a gift for the neighbour who tended to your plants this summer or, a custom order or a treat for yourself – the mouth-watering chocolates you will fi nd are a dream come true.

Ball Park Sports

Thanks to their excellent service and devotion to the Fastpitch, Baseball, Slo-pitch and Cricket communities throughout the local areas and across the province, Ball Park Sports has been “hitting the ball out of the park” since it opened for business in September 2009.

Merv, Tony, Tim, Helen and Sarah are particularly proud of winning the 2010 “New Business of the Year” award presented to Ball Park Sports by the South Surrey White Rock Chamber of Commerce.

“The local communities — especially White Rock, South Surrey, Cloverdale, Langley and Newton — have really embraced our concept and have supported us well,” says Merv Sandrel.

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

Providing great promotional gifts and apparel, Tony handles all the corporate clients, while Helen takes care of all the uniform needs for the teams.

At Ball Park Sports, everyone understands the importance of giving back. Through the Lower Mainland Baseball Association, the company supports the “Going to Bat for Cancer Research” weekend. This year, joined by Cloverdale Minor Fastpitch, Ball Park Sports had 50 pink wooden bats made for kids to use in support of the cause.

“It was a great success,” said Merv. “Next year will be an even bigger event with three more associations climbing on board. We welcome others to join in too.”

Apart from serving the sporting needs of parents, players and kids, Ball Park Sports also has a fantastic line of novelty items that make great gifts for ball enthusiasts and “kids” of all ages.

Stop in for old fashioned baseball-themed tin signs, Fathead wall posters, MLB barbecue sets, MLB beverage coolers, softball and baseball themed T-shirts, as well as many other fun items.
