Program gets kids geared up for school

Alina Konevski The Progress

Having just one more reason to come to school can make the difference between a student who graduates, and one who doesn’t. That’s the philosophy underpinning a program at C.H.A.N.C.E Alternate school that takes in old bikes, and teaches students to fix and ride them. The six-week, extra-curricular option is nearing 10 years, and combines mechanical education with fitness. Other similar programs at the school include cooking, weight-training, and art. About 15 students have passed through bike shop this year, representing nearly 40 per cent of the school’s student body. With access to several dozen bikes, students learn to pump and patch tires, adjust gears, fit

new brake cables, replace brake pads, repair spokes, and do other basic maintenance. “We teach them how to take care of their own equipment,” said program leader and educational assistant Dane, who asked that only his first name be used. Sometimes on a nice day, bike shop students will spend their hour cycling around the Prest Road area. There’s a sense of accomplishment from working with their hands, of a job well done, according to Dane. And students gain mechanical confidence through fixing a bike, which may help them do other things, such as fix a faucet leak. “A lot of our young people, they don’t have an opportunity at all. This gives them an opportunity that they feel they can relate to,” said Dane.

It doesn’t matter what a student’s ability is. Some ride bikes, others scooters. Some come to repair parts and work with their hands, others for the riding. Some are there just to hang out in a safe place. What’s important is that they choose to come to school that day. “If it’s biking, or cooking, or whatever, that might be the one hook that keeps them here, rather than not being in school at all,” said Dane. Students are at C.H.A.N.C.E for a variety of reasons, but a common one is that they have trouble keeping up their attendance. For some students, the bike shop might be that one thing that gets them out of bed in the morning. “It gives you something to look forward to when you go to

school,” said 14-year-old Jesse Reusch, who has become especially good at riding one of the shop’s several unicycles. The flexible program occasionally supplies bikes to students across the district, whenever there’s someone who struggles getting to school. People also drop off bikes for a tune-up. Thirteen-year-old Richard Trudel is fixing up a bike to donate to his sister, after hers was stolen recently. He joined the program because it’s fun, he said, and because there are many different activities that participants can do. “I’ll be at home, and I’m like a couch potato. Here I’m like a ball of energy,” he said. He’s hoping Dane starts a project to make a go-kart out of scrap bike parts. In the last few years, the shop

Local residents had a chance to confront Kinder Morgan and the Fraser Valley Regional District regarding the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion project Tuesday night. Members of Pipe Up Network, Lynn Perrin and Michael Hale, were finally granted delegation seats at the FVRD board meeting, allowing them 10 minutes to present their concerns. Perrin was previously refused a delegation seat, on the grounds that an agreement with Kinder Morgan to survey the Cheam Lake Wetlands had already been signed. Kinder Morgan is currently studying the wetlands to determine the path of the pipeline twinning. The company has several routing alternatives for the area, including diverting the line through the south side of highway. “We have a couple of options there. We haven’t landed on a decision, we’re working through that,” said Kinder Morgan representative Greg Toth, who received 20 minutes to speak about the project at Tuesday’s meeting. The ecologically sensitive wetlands are of special concern to the Fraser Valley. Bitumen from a spill may sink, complicating cleanup. “Can we risk a spill in the Cheam Lakes Wetlands? The natural values and ecosystem services provided by these wetlands are unique in this part of the Lower Mainland,” said Hale. There hasn’t been a serious spill in the area since the laying of the pipeline, according to Bill Dickey, FVRD director for the area. “People in our community have seen the pipeline in place for 60 years...and we’ve had really no incidents to speak of there. But we were under the assumption that any expansion would be contained within the existing right of way,” he said. Since the original pipeline was built, the region has experienced major physical changes, including the construction of the

Dinotown Live a ‘pop-up’ park for the summer Jennifer Feinberg The Progress

Think of it as Dinotown Lite — a scaled down version of the original park — but with the same flavour. Dinotown owner Rob Ell says he is bringing the popular Dinotown family back, with Dinotown Live in a completely different format, starting on July 1. “We’re repositioning it for the summer at Bridal Falls,” Ell says. They’re leasing a new site on Bridal Falls Road, beside the Shell station, in an old western themed building off the highway. “We’re very busy right now. And that would be an understatement,” he says. The Dinotown Live idea was first created as a “pop-up park” at the Cloverdale Fairgrounds last summer, he says. Now they’re gearing up for the 2013 launch in Chilliwack and will be open from Canada Day to Labour Day. The new spot is actually not too

far from the original location of the theme park. Dinotown closed almost three years ago, as Ell was recovering from surgery to remove what turned out to be a benign brain tumour. It was actually the gas station owner who called him up to see if he was interested in renting the vacant property with prime highway access. “I said I was very interested,” Ell tells The Progress. It’s been a dream of his to have other spots to present Dinotown Live in the new format. “I’ve looked all over for another location. So for us, we’re coming home, and we’re ecstatic about it.” The well-loved original attraction, saw 2.5 million visitors through the gates, from 1975, when his father built it and called it Bedrock City, to when it closed as Dinotown in 2010. Ell is known as the Mayor of Dinotown, and he even performed as one of the dinosaurs as a kid. There will be obvious differences. Instead of rides in a theme park over 18 sprawling acres, there will be

shows, giant inflatables, like a water slide, a sports centre, and a safari over 30,000 square feet. “It will look like the Vancouver Children’s Festival with white tents.” Dusty Bones the daddy dinosaur, mom Dina, daughter DeeDee and boy Dexter will all be part of the fun at the new location. “We’ve brought the shows back. And another nice thing about the new site is that when you look up in the sky, and it has the same beautiful view of Mt. Cheam.” The park employed more than 2,000 teenagers over its lifetime. To get things going this summer for the live version, they need talented personnel from in and around Chilliwack. They’re hiring 20 employees for the summer, and an operations manager. Go to the website www.dinotown.com and click on jobs to apply, or like the Dinotown Live Facebook page to get updates. jfeinberg@theprogress.com Twitter.com/chwkjourno

Fertile new ground for Sardis ag program Senate: Fix it or fold it says Clark

Alina Konevski The Progress

The field at Richardson and Blue Jay Avenues in Sardis will soon feature rows of carefully laid soil, and throngs of students tending to their nascent vegetable gardens. The Chilliwack Board of Education has finally approved the use of their Richardson Avenue property for an expansion of Sardis Secondary school’s agricultural program, effective immediately. Having access to the five-acre lot represents a major change for the Grade 11 and Grade 12 students enrolled in the Sustainable Resources elective course at Sardis. Students will now be able to grow field crops, in addition to the flowers and indoor vegetables they already produce at the school’s greenhouse. They will also run research trials for the University of the Fraser Valley’s Pacific Berry Resource Centre, thanks to a strengthening partnership with UFV. This might include looking at different fertilizers, culture control, and crop management. Berry research in the Valley depends on the next generation taking it on, explained UFV’s Prof. Tom Baumann, and schools should encourage even young kids to become excited about agriculture. Access to the Richardson property will also allow students from any Chilliwack district school to plant and manage their own garden plots, reminiscent of Chilliwack’s past during which students frequently grew their own vegetables. “This is a way of connecting our students with elementary schools,

middle schools, within the district, and allowing for students to just start to plant, and watch things grow,” said Sardis teacher Tania Toth. The school has been working towards this approval for three years, since first approaching the school board in June 2010. Since then, program organizers have confirmed with the Ministry of Education and the City of Chilliwack that there are no barriers to using the land for the ag program. They have also forged community connections with farmers, groups, and UFV.

SPRINTGOCK S FLOORRANCE! GREAETS! PRIC CLEA

This year, 120 students enrolled in the ag program. In the more than 20 years that the greenhouse has been at Sardis secondary, at least 1,000 students have passed through it. “(This program) allows us to extend our classroom. We’re going to get kids out of their seats, out of the theoretical, and get their hands dirty, get planting crops, planting gardens...and really learn hands on how to do things,” said teacher Joe Massie. Revenue from the sale of greenhouse products has allowed the pro-

gram to be largely self-sufficient. Massie hopes Sardis’ agriculture training eases more students into UFV’s agriculture programs, potentially providing some university prerequisites. Other ideas for the program’s future include supplying food to the Sardis secondary cafeteria and the UFV culinary arts program, providing students with early entry to UFV with priority enrollment, and expanding a summer program that focuses on crop science. akonevski@theprogress.com twitter.com/alinakonevski

LONGFELLOW’S F U R N I T U R E & M AT T R E S S E S

VICTORIA – The B.C. government will go ahead with its plan for Alberta-style senate elections if it proves impossible to scrap the senate altogether, Premier Christy Clark said this week. Clark issued a statement in response to the controversy over senate expense claims that has gripped Ottawa. On record as preferring the senate be scrapped, Clark declined to comment on federal Liberal leader Justin Trudeau’s statement to a Montreal newspaper that the senate should be preserved because Quebec has 24 senators and Alberta and B.C. have only six each. “It’s true British Columbians have long been troubled by an unelected senate, but it should be fixed or folded and not a distraction,” Clark said. “The Prime Minister invited us to move the process of senate reform forward. To that end, we have moved legislation in the house before the election that would make a senate election possible. It has not been passed and it will not be re-introduced until there is clarity from the Supreme Court.” Clark added: “We need to remember the fact that B.C. and Continued: Senate/ p6

It’s a special fundraiser on Saturday night in Chilliwack for those who share a deep passion for B.C.’s iconic symbol, the wild salmon. “The event will capture the spirit of the wild salmon,” says organizer and Skwah elder Eddie Gardner. “The artists, the performers, the speakers, the people who will be attracted to the Spirit of Wild Salmon Gala, will have a direct relationship with the spirit of wild salmon, what it means to B.C., to our economy, our culture and our spirituality.” The gala will feature a wild salmon feast, fine art auction, and performances by the Thomas Drum Group, the Semoya Dance Group, and singers like Richard Mayer of Vancouver and Sto:lo artist Carrielynn Victor. “We want to put it out there in a celebratory manner but also dramatically bringing home the spectre of wild salmon vanishing forever, which would be devastating for everyone,” says Gardner. “This will motivate people to wake up to what is happening out there and take action. Everyone has a little responsibility to do this. It’s in our own enlightened self interest to do this.” Biologist Alexandra Morton will be in attendance along with 12-year-old singer Ta’Kaiya Blaney, and Cheam elder June Quipp. “They know how important it is for us to be more in harmony with the natural world.” All proceeds from the gala will go toward creating greater awareness of the risks to wild stocks posed by open-net fish farming in the Pacific Ocean, which are believed to be threatening the very survival of salmon, especially those who return to natal streams in Chilliwack. Spirit of Wild Salmon ~ Gala Fundraising Dinner on Saturday, June 1, at the Ch’iyaqtel Community Center, 45855 Promontory Road in Chilliwack, BC. Tickets are $55 at http://wildsalmonforever.org/ events/wild-salmon-gala/ or 604.792.0867 or singingbear@shaw.ca.

A collision course with success at UFV

Driven to make ordinary cars extraordinary and bring beaten classics back to life, graduates of UFV’s Automotive Collision Repair & Refinishing program are in extremely high demand. Best of all, room remains in the fall semester for the next round of highly qualified autobody repair and paint specialists. Only four years into existence at UFV’s Trades and Technology Centre in Chilliwack, the 34-week program boasts new equipment that includes a pro-quality paint booth and English wheel (for creating compound curves). Using these tools and more, the 18-student core often gels quickly, explains instructor Nick Penner, who’s called weekly by potential employers looking for capable apprentices willing to work towards journeyman status, allowing employment anywhere in Canada. “It opens up a lot of doors,” Penner says. “There’s just so much work waiting out there.” Recent projects include a 1967 Mustang, 1953 Mercury pickup, and the ground-up restoration of a 1971 GMC truck — perfect training grounds for the red-hot custom car industry, with Penner pointing to one local shop so backed up it has a five-year wait list.

Grads gearing up for convocation Working with like-minded car buffs helps students share knowledge and expertise before heading into the growing world of custom autos.

With the average technician nearing retirement, the window is closing for employers to ensure hard-earned practical knowledge is passed down to the next generation. “If you’re a shop owner looking for a guy you’d better start now,” Penner says. The majority of vehicles improved in UFV’s program belong to students themselves, supplemented by a small fleet of cars, trucks, and machinery, says Penner, pointing out it’s very rare

the class would work on vehicles from the general public. “We don’t want to take work away from outside collision shops.” Following program completion, work can include anything from semi trucks to sea planes. Opportunities also arise outside the shop doors as paint or product representatives. For more information, visit ufv. ca/automotive_collision_repair, call Penner at 604-847-5420 or e-mail nick.penner@ufv.ca.

Trades boss would take the warm, clean world of aircraft repair “in a heartbeat” When talking trades, terms like ‘clean’, ‘warm’ and ‘not physically taxing’ don’t always apply — unless you’re discussing aircraft repair, one of the most diverse, unique, and surprising opportunities offered at the University of the Fraser Valley. “One of the things that intrigues me is the number of skills they gain here,” UFV director of trades Rolf Arnold said during a recent open house at the university’s Aerospace Centre, which houses the Aircraft Structures Repair program, along with Paul Brodie’s bike-building classes. “It’s no more challenging than any other trade, but the big advantage is most everything is done indoors. “It’s a nice, clean, warm option compared to other trades,” Rolf said, admitting, “If I was young and ambitious I’d be in here in a heartbeat.” At 42 weeks, this TransportCanada–approved program is the longest trade program UFV offers. Following the program’s

completion, students work in their field for 25 months before writing a Canadian Aviation Regulations exam. If successful, they’ll officially be Maintenance Engineers S-class (structure). “If you’re meticulous and like doing things right, this program will really interest you,” suggested head instructor Wally Gallinger.

“You have to be precise; the industry often appeals to perfectionists with a keen attention to detail.” Combined with the fact there’s almost no heavy lifting, aircraft structures repair is also unique in the trades world in that it appeals to as many women as men. “Almost everything’s aluminum

and light,” said Arnold, with other materials including Kevlar, carbon fiber, wood, and fabric. In fact, UFV’s training facility not only includes a massive building housing hunks of helicopters and airplanes (including the prestigious Lockheed Lodestar, once used to shuttle Prime Minister Louis St. Laurent), it also has a full woodworking room and paint booth, providing a breadth of experience and skills unmatched in almost any other trades program. One student even starting making his own skateboards using the skills he learned. With all this in mind, it’s little surprise the program is gaining more attention and a wider audience, especially now it’s an approved program for the Canadian military, increasing the number of applicants from across the country vying for two annual intakes of 16 students in September and January.

Thousands of hours of hard work and countless cups of coffee pay off very soon for the University of the Fraser Valley’s latest graduates. Held inside the Abbotsford Entertainment and Sports Centre (33800 King Road — corner of King Road and University Way), this year’s convocation begins Thursday, June 13 at 1:30 pm, celebrating the Faculty of Professional Studies, and Faculty of Access and Open Studies. Proud graduates take the stage again Friday, June 14 at 9:30 am to honour UFV’s College of Arts students, with the third and final ceremony later that day at 2:30 pm to commemorate graduates from the Faculty of Science, Faculty of Health Sciences and Faculty of Trades and Technology.

a couple of alarming incidents up on the mountain in the past few years with Kinder Morgan, and their track record is not that good,” he said. MacGregor remained opposed to the twinning, and supported Pipe Up’s recommendation for FVRD to evaluate the project. “I think we’re in for a war,” he said. At the meeting, Kinder Morgan maintained that its monitoring and response technology is top-of-the-line. This includes such measures as corrosion control through pipeline coating, remote sensors to detect cracks and temperature, a 24-hour control centre in Edmonton, a database on natural hazards such as stream crossings, and regular physical inspections and patrols.

“Pipeline safety is embedded within our integrity management program,” said Toth. “The diagnostics on the pipeline are of a very high level.” A National Energy Board investigation of the company’s 2012 spill on Sumas Mountain found that Kinder Morgan failed to follow proper procedures. An operator ignored several alarms before responding, causing a four-hour delay in detection. Pipe Up members also argued that the twinning of the pipeline will not economically benefit British Columbians. “Studies show that there is no net economic benefit for British Columbians, and that there are alternatives. Alternatives such as renewable energy and

electric transportation would produce more economic benefit, more jobs, and would potentially position BC as a world leader in making the transition from finite and increasingly dirty fossil fuels,” said Hale. Toth responded that municipalities on the route benefit from tax income and new jobs. This was the first board meeting at which FVRD allowed significant time to members of the public to present their concerns about the twinning of the pipeline. The district has not taken initiative to assess the risks of the project. “We are very much at the preliminary stages. We are not currently undertaking any studies,” said an FVRD staff member. “We still don’t know what the routing for the pipeline will be.” Pipe Up wants to see FVRD create an independent committee to assess the risk of sending more bitumen through the Cheam Lake Wetlands, as well as consult with the public on the matter. Kinder Morgan has submitted a project description to the NEB last week, signaling their intent to file an application in late 2013. akonevski@theprogress.com twitter.com/alinakonevski

fixed up and sent seven bikes over to Africa. A more complicated task than it seems, explained Dane, because the bikes need to be bombproof: single speed, with brakes that engage when pedaling backwards. “Our goal is to have everybody in a classroom get up and pedal to a field trip,” said Dane. With about 35 bikes in the room, and a container full of bike parts, the goal is near. The shop is careful about which donated bikes to accept. Many bikes that have sat in a garage or basement may be rusted or damaged beyond repair, leaving the school district to cover the disposal fee.

Prime Minister Stephen Harper continued to face tough questions this week about what he knew about Senator Mike Duffy’s spending habits and when he knew it. But while his words may have sooth some Conservative MPs and senators, they don’t wash with taxpayers. Harper said there needs to be a tightening of the rules regarding expenses. True. But the issue isn’t just a lack of rules, it’s the seeming inability by some to follow them. For that, there needs to be greater accountability, and that includes accountability from the prime minister’s office. Harper’s former chief of staff, Nigel Wright, resigned Sunday after it was learned that he had written a personal $90,000 cheque to Senator Mike Duffy, allowing Duffy to withdraw from an audit into his housing allowance. The problem is that MPs and senators do not disclose all their expenses. Every single item they bill to taxpayers, whether it be a $15 glass of orange juice or a $90,000 housing allowance, needs to be itemized and posted online as soon as payment has been made. Then taxpayers can find out for themselves how these people spend our money, and draw their own conclusions. A further probe may reveal all the details, but it seems obvious that Wright wrote a cheque to Duffy to specifically prevent information from being released. This is unacceptable. Duffy and Senator Pamela Wallin, who racked up $300,000 in expenses in less than two years, have left the Conservative caucus. But they continue to sit as senators, as do Patrick Brazeau, who was kicked out of the Conservative caucus due to criminal charges he is facing, and former Liberal Senator Mac Harb, who is under investigation for use of the housing allowance. All four of these people need to resign from the Senate. In addition, Harper should not appoint any more senators until a whole new set of rules are in place to ensure that there is 100 per cent transparency and accountability for all MPs and senators, and indeed for all senior officials of the federal government. ~ Black Press

Teachers’ federation digs in for endless war

VICTORIA – Like those Japanese soldiers who didn’t hear about the end of World War II, the militant fringe that controls the B.C. Teachers’ Federation is digging in for endless battle against the B.C. government. Their nemesis, Premier Christy Clark, reiterated last week that seeking a 10-year agreement with the BCTF is a top priority when the legislature is recalled this summer. The current one-year truce ends June 30. The BCTF grudgingly agreed to that extension last year, then ran TV ads calling for an NDP government that promised concessions and union bosses on both sides of the negotiating table. “You know, I may be a lame duck,” outgoing BCTF president Susan Lambert crowed to cheering classroom-warfare radicals at the union’s convention in March, “but I think Christy’s goose is cooked.”

We’ll never know how much this sort of gloating contributed to the epic collapse of the NDP, champion of public sector union members whose pay and benefits make them the new upper class. But I can tell you the prospects for sparing children from this ideological warfare are not Tom good. Last week the FLETCHER B.C. Court of Appeal handed down an ivory-tower decision that upheld the “right” of teachers to bring their union demands into the classroom in the form of posters, buttons and black armbands that to some self-absorbed teachers symbolize the “death” of education. During the election campaign,

<I>The Globe and Mail</I> carried a story on one of those mock elections held in schools around the province. An elementary-level student was quoted as saying she voted against the B.C. Liberals because Clark “caused a teachers’ strike.” If this kid was talking about the most recent strike, I wonder where she got that idea. In a negotiating performance that was appalling even by BCTF standards, Lambert and her team conducted months of disruptive workto-rule action before they could even articulate a wage and benefit demand. When they finally did, it was outrageously out of touch with reality. An indication of how the union’s ruling class wants to conduct itself in the classroom can be found in the latest issue of the BCTF newsletter to its members. Joanna Larson, president of the Prince

Rupert union local, contributes an article headlined: “What kind of citizen do we hope to graduate from our K-12 public schools?” Larson first quotes the education ministry’s current goals. They include preparing citizens who are “creative, flexible, selfmotivated, and who have a positive self-image.” Another goal is citizens who are “skilled and who can contribute to society generally, including the world of work.” Larson then mocks these goals, as follows: “Essentially, the Ministry of Education has a vision of citizens who will maintain the status quo, not rock the boat, and participate on a superficial level in aspects of political and societal change. It doesn’t challenge individuals to take direct action against exploitation, marginalization and violence.” In case you missed the politi-

cal message, Larson later asserts: “The educated citizens we graduate from our schools cannot just be content to wear a pink shirt once a year…. Educated, engaged citizens must be willing to take direct action to change and shape our society for the better.” What is this ghastly “status quo” that must be challenged by “direct action”? In these campusradical screeds, the final answer is generally the same: capitalism. This call to arms is a blend of the NDP election platform and a rant from the Occupy Vancouver squat of a couple of years ago. It’s no wonder we hear of students making BCTF picket signs in art class. Tom Fletcher is legislative reporter and columnist for Black Press and BCLocalnews.com tfletcher@blackpress.ca

Children deserve early French immersion I am writing about the need for an early French immersion program in Chilliwack. When my husband and I moved here five years ago, we thought it was a wonderful place to raise a family. We still believe it is, in all respects except one: the lack of a French immersion program for our young children. My husband and I do not speak French, but we had every intention of giving our children the benefit of learning a second language. Unfortunately, when I began looking at elementary schools in March of 2011, I was shocked and saddened to realize

we do not have EFI. Chilliwack is the only community I have lived in that does not offer EFI. Even my six-year-old nephew, living in a community of less than 30,000 in the Yukon, is currently enrolled in EFI. I find it extremely disappointing both for my own family and for the Chilliwack community as a whole. When I first found out about our lack of French immersion, I contacted the school board members and the former superintendent of schools, Corinne McCabe. I was told there was not enough interest from the public. Ms. McCabe told me the

late French immersion met the requests and needs of the community. Now, two years later, the school board has done a feasibility study with the overwhelming majority of respondents in support of EFI. Obviously, we have the necessary interest. Please do not now give the excuse of money. Our children’s education should be made a priority. Please join me in again requesting an early French immersion program for our Chilliwack children. They deserve it.

New MLAs know what they’re getting into Re: Open letter to the new MLAs (Chilliwack Progress, May 28). It seemed awful nice of Gwen O’Mahony to spend time to write a letter to the winners of the Chilliwack-Hope and Chilliwack elections for the may 28th edition of The Progress. There’s just one part of me that can’t help but think she was acting like a sore loser by writing that letter. About 9,500 people voted for Laurie in the

election, compared to the estimated 6,800 who voted for you. Therefore, more people like things the way they are, compared to those who wanted change. You think Mr. Throness and Mr. Martin don’t know what to expect? I’m pretty sure they were both present to watch the news when the “honorable” Gordon Campbell got caught drunk driving that one time in 2003. I’m

sure they were present to watch the news when that other politician, Svend Robinson, admitted to stealing a ring. They know what kind of backlash comes with mistakes on the job. They watch attack ads and know that one little mis-spoken word can be the political pipe bomb their political opponents will use. Considering how many grey hairs I’ve seen on their heads compared to the youthful look of

yours, they should be warning you of the dangers that come with the job, right? They’re both probably old enough to be your dad. Finally, Ms. O’Mahony, You’ll have another crack at running Chilliwack-Hope. You’ll have another opportunity to support a party that spent us into debt in the 1990s and another chance to litter the city with orange signs again.

Immigrant Business Fair a welcoming event

When we were in the planning stages of the Immigrant Business Fair held earlier this month, it seemed fitting that this event should be the launch of our new initiative, the Welcoming Communities Program. Now that we have had time to reflect on feedback received from both exhibitors and attendees, we know it was. I am writing to thank the 27 exhibitors that participated in the fair and came with enthusiasm and anticipation. In a truly international event that showcased products and services from around the world, immigrants demonstrated the contribution they are making to the local economy and their eagerness to establish themselves here in

Chilliwack. I also want to thank all those who showed their support by attending the fair for without you the exhibitors would not have had an audience. Under the Welcoming Communities Program aim to build a more welcoming and inclusive environment, a committee made up of local public and private organizations will be working on several more projects over the next 10 months. Guiding the group is its vision “to create awareness of services for newcomers in Chilliwack and build connections and relationships across the community.” In closing I want to acknowledge the support and participation in the fair of Chilliwack Chamber of Commerce,

Chilliwack Economic Partners Corporation, Skills Connect for Immigrants and GT Hiring Solutions and Work BC. These are important employment and business services that newcomers to Chilliwack should know about. With their added presence, information sharing and networking, as anticipated, were a clear outcome of the fair. For anyone wanting information regarding the Welcoming Communities Program and its activities, please contact project coordinator, Melissa Warren w a r r e n m @ c o m s e r v. b c . c a 604.393.3251.

Botox

Comment on survey hits a chord

Question: How does Botox® work … will it help to ‘stop the clock’ on further deepening of lines around my eyes and forehead? Marion, Chilliwack

I wish to thank Matthew Fox for putting his finger on my pulse regarding mailouts by our local MP. (Conservative survey unwanted, Chilliwack Progress, May 28.) I was vaguely annoyed when I read the pamphlet last week, and dismissed it as onesided propaganda when I threw it into the recycling. Mr. Fox reminded me of a few important things. I do not like political parties using public money to spread propaganda (most of them seem to do it all

Answer: Botox Cosmetic® is an injectable treatment derived from a purified protein and works by relaxing the muscles that cause the dynamic wrinkles, giving your face a more relaxed and refreshed appearance. Regular use of this simple treatment will soften expression lines and prevents the further deepening of lines.

the time!). Nowadays one has to pick and choose carefully among candidates for office in search of one that respects the intelligence of the average voter. Once elected most of them insult voters by sending us junk mail like the one I threw out, that Mr. Fox describes. Another way politicians show disrespect is totally relying on virtual media tools to get elected, avoiding contact with voters. If I recall correctly, Mr. Strahl rode on his father’s

coat-tails and was elected to this riding having shown up for only one of four all-candidates’ meetings. I am still waiting for Mr. Strahl to accomplish something important for our area as MP for Chilliwack-Fraser Canyon. He has three more years to demonstrate more respect and earn my future vote. Way to go Matthew Fox! I love to read letters to the editor as some are written by thinking people. Ken Cruise, Chilliwack

Cheaper to abolish the Senate

Botox® is a safe FDA approved treatment. A tiny amount of Botox® is injected precisely into the muscle that is being treated. A very fine needle is used so that the pain associated with the injection is minimal. It is a very quick simple procedure with no downtime. You can expect results within a few days and the effect usually lasts from 3-6 months.

Concern over the “cost” that could be incurred to buy out Canadian Senators is not fully illuminated. In simple round numbers: Not taking into account tax payer costs

Liberals blamed for election sign damage Many people have wondered if the recent Liberal negative advertising had much to do with the Liberal victory. I believe that it was crucial to their victory. Early in the campaign, Liberals brought up the old W.A.C. Bennett reference to the “Socialist Hordes at the Gates”. This campaign worked well for Bennett forty-four years ago and it worked for Christy Clark. Other Liberals compared Adrian Dix to either Fidel Castro or Hugo Chavez; and constant references were made to the “terrible” nineties of the NDP. It literally amazes me that some people can be influenced by such propaganda.

Meanwhile, while the Liberals were pushing their “Fear” tactics; Adrian Dix asked his charges to take the high road and not resort to such hypocritical tactics. What were the results? People fell hook, line and sinker for this idiotic strategy and Dix lost out. Here in Chilliwack, I was more focused on the rampant Liberal destruction of NDP signs. How do I know that Liberals were responsible for the dozens of NDP signs destroyed? It’s simple: when NDP signs are destroyed or vandalized across the city and adjacent Liberal signs go untouched- who else? Cases in point for

these destructions were the four larger signs on Evans road that were run over repeatedly by a farm tractor. These instances were witnessed and the RCMP were contacted. Nothing to my knowledge was done about this? Other acts of vandalism occurred on South Sumas and Tyson, on Stevenson and Higginson and on Prest Road. Similar destruction of both Conservative and NDP signs occurred in the 2012 by-election. These are the sort of people that 25 per cent of the voters voted forsecuring the Liberals with two local victories. Yet, I constantly hear from many of these “Liberals” that they are

You have now elected a government where the “Evil Capitalist Hordes” are not only at the gates, they are in the city and they have four years to “pillage” the taxpayers in order to benefit their corporate masters. I predict that, within three years, many of you who voted for these hypocrites will be calling for their downfall. Watch my words.

...Get your Stray Cat Strut on...

With better weather upon us, people are spending more time outside enjoying the City’s many parks and trails. Of course, many citizens are also bringing along their favourite canine companion. The Fraser Valley Regional District, which provides Animal Control Services to the City Chilliwack, would like to remind residents that all dogs within municipal boundaries must be leashed when in public.

themselves or disturbing people, property or wildlife. “We encourage residents to take advantage of the designated offleash parks in our City,” said Mayor Sharon Gaetz, “but remember to take the lead and put the leash back on when visiting high traffic areas such as Sardis Park and along the Vedder Trail”. Off leash dog parks in or near Chilliwack include: • A large designated fenced area at Island 22 Regional Park, located at 45695 Cartmell Road. • The Vedder River/ Garrison Off-Leash Dog Park, located on Nord Road near the Canada Education Park. This park features two separate fully fenced off-leash dog parks (one park is designated for small dogs only). • Cultus Lake OffLeash Dog Park, located beside the Business Plaza (near 4125 Columbia Valley Highway).

Keeping your dog on a leash is a requirement under the City’s Animal Control Bylaw as a means to ensure safety for both residents and their dogs. This reminder is being offered at a time when Animal Control officers are seeing an increase in complaints about dogs being off leash. To address concerns, Animal Control Officers will be stepping up patrols throughout the city focussing on hot spots such as Sardis Park and the Vedder Trail. Failure to comply may result in fines of up to $500 and the possibility of your dog being impounded. Dogs may only be off-leash if in a designated off-leash park. The purpose of these parks is to provide a fenced-in, leash free area where dogs can exercise and play in a clean, safe environment without endangering

When Kathy Funk was growing up, she was a self professed tom-boy and loved every minute of it. “I loved the outdoors! I loved doing the vegetable garden, playing Frisbee, softball and playing football with the guys,” she enthused. Her father was very engaged in sports and as such, was sideline chaplain for the Saskatchewan Roughriders. “Dad loved his sports and growing up, it was so much fun having professional football players in our life,” she said. Kathy’s father worked

as a system’s analyst with Central Mortgage and Housing and was frequently transferred. “It was like being in the army,” she chuckled. While the family moved often, there was a period of relative stability while they lived in Ottawa. “I really did enjoy living there. It’s a big city and there was so much to do. As much as I liked the outdoors, I was also into culture and Ottawa offered us a bit of everything.” While living in the national capital, Kathy and her family lived at the top of

She left Revlon after a period of time and took on a summer job with the Ottawa School District. “Then, I did as my father had asked and went to Okanagan Bible College for a year. This helped me personalize my faith and from there, life just kept unfolding for me,” she said. Kathy married and two years later, her husband, Garry, was diagnosed with lymphoma. “They gave him two months to live but he lasted 13 ½ years. He was a fighter and had such a positive, mental attitude.” At the time that Garry was diagnosed, he was the sales manager for a door company but the disease made it impossible for him to continue working in that capacity. “At that time, we were presented with the opportunity of running Charis Camp and Conference Centre in Rosedale. This way, we’d run it as a team and on those days when Garry was feeling sick, I could take care of things. Our family moved from Abbotsford to Rosedale and we took the site from a summer camp to a yearround facility,” she said. The camp, which is owned by the Evangelical Missionary Church of Canada, is nestled tightly at the base of Mt. Cheam and is sheltered by 20 acres of forests and rushing creeks. “It really is a beautiful setting and we did so much work out there. There was a lodge built while we were there and the lodge and a memorial garden have been dedicated in Garry’s memory.” After he passed away, Kathy remained on site for just over a year but then she recognized that it was time to move on. Through Employment Services, Kathy got involved in their self employment program and the net result of the intensive analysis was that she ought to create her own event production company. “That’s when Kathleen Funk Productions was created. I worked for Brian Minter for a couple of years on the Taste of BC and then worked with the Bongo Boys on the Country Harvest Festival and other BIA events. When Netty Tam, who was heading up the BIA moved over to CEPCO, I took over as the executive director for the Downtown BIA and have been there for 11 years now. The downtown has truly become my passion,” she enthused. Kathy still loves the outdoors but she is quick to point out that she also appreciates culture. “I do enjoy fine dining and the theatre. I guess I developed that growing up in Ottawa because they have so much to offer. I will also say that I love to cook and to bake. My mother was a fabulous cook and baker and I carry some of that same passion with me,” she chuckled. Life is good, as Kathy will admit. She remarried last summer and along with husband Ken Dueck, the couple is enjoying wedded bliss. “He really is a great guy and his family has deep roots in this community. I do love my life and I wouldn’t want to have things any other way.”

Barney Bentall: Still something vital to live for “You just have to figure out a way to keep your heart and soul intact.”

Jennifer Feinberg The Progress

Singer-songwriter Barney Bentall is coming to the Cultural Centre to throw on a guitar and play some rock and roll. And he has a historical connection to Chilliwack, which may have smoothed the way for some of his ultimate success. But more on that later. Bentall just came off the road from the prairies, performed with Jim Cuddy in Italy, and a played a recent gig in Harrison with one of his favourites, Shari Ulrich. “It was great,” he tells The Progress. “I consider myself a farmer right now that likes to throw on a guitar and play some rock and roll.” That’s what he does now when he’s not at his ranch in the Cariboo growing hay and keeping horses. “It’s pretty manageable now.” At its peak, the ranch had 250 head of cattle. He’s been back and

forth between the ranch and the road for years. Born Barnard Franklin Bentall, Barney started writing and performing music in 1978. These days he keeps busy farming, cycling and rebuilding the old log homestead, as well being outdoors as much as possible. “I could never record music in the summertime. I enjoy being outdoors too much. I like to burrow into the dark of the studio in winter.” He’ll be in Chilliwack next week with his original Legendary Hearts bandmates, including keyboard player Cam Bowman, who left the band to become a plastic surgeon, Colin Nairne and bassist Barry Muir. “It’s always great when we play together. This is most important band for me in terms of what I do. “I grew up with three sisters. These guys are my brothers. We’ve been through a lot.”

The debut album in 1988, Barney Bentall and the Legendary Hearts, produced by David Tickle, turned out to be life-changing. When music mogul, Tickle, drove all the way out from Vancouver to see the band for the first time, it was at Earthquake Annie’s on Yale Road in Chilliwack. It was the only place that Bentall and the boys could get a gig at on really short notice, and he distinctly remembers that night. The self-titled debut ended up catapulting them into the platinum stratosphere of Canadian records. “We went from being a Vancouver bar band, to having a big hit. Everything changes. You have to survive becoming well know suddenly. “There is no manual for it.” The album had three hit songs, Something to Live For, House of Love (is Haunted) and Come Back to Me. “It was wild times when we released these songs,” he remem-

Records in 2006. A couple of years later he released a DVD of his live show The Grand Cariboo Opry show, which included a 12-track audio CD. In 2009, Bentall joined Shari Ulrich and Tom Taylor to release the album Live at Cates Hill, and last year he released Flesh and Bone also with True North Records. “Music has changed since 20, or 25 years ago. Everyone knew my name. But now you ask a 20 yearold and they’re not really sure any more,” he says. “That’s okay. You just have to figure out a way to keep your heart and soul intact.” BARNEY BENTALL & THE LEGENDARY HEARTS Thursday June 6 at the Chilliwack Cultural Centre tickets $37.50 (+ fees & SC) 604-391-SHOW (7469) or online at www.chilliwackculturalcentre.ca.

bered. The hits continued with Crime Against Love, Life Could Be Worse, Doin’ Fine, Do Ya, and Shattered. The group was nominated for a Genie Award for the song, Restless Dreamer (1990), which appeared on the soundtrack to the Sandy Wilson film American Boyfriends. After years of recording and touring with the Hearts, Bentall withdrew from the limelight and started a cattle ranch at the end of the 1990s. But it doesn’t feel nostalgic at all to be playing with the Hearts again. “It would feel that way if I wasn’t continuing to write new songs all the time. “We’ll play a few of the new songs and all the old hits. “It still feels vital to me. If it was only about playing the hits, I don’t know if I could do it.” The proof is in the pudding in terms of longevity. Bentall released his first solo album Gift Horse on True North

“Stand up and Cheer” could be Tyler Dyck’s mantra. Tyler is the embodiment of school spirit at Sardis Secondary School. He has made it his mission to cheer for everything and everyone. This positive and outgoing young man has made a difference at Sardis by going beyond achieving at a high level in all his classes. He is involved in student leadership helping to plan and facilitate many different school activities including school dances, spirit assemblies, the 30 hour Famine and our school talent show. He spends his time out in the community volunteering his time as a soccer coach, as a program leader for Big Brothers Big Sisters of Canada and has been involved in missions trips to Mexico through his church. Tyler is a busy student. Perhaps what sets him apart from others, beyond his positive demeanor and his willingness to get involved, is his willingness to lift others up through his work to build school spirit and make his school a better place for everyone. Congratulations Tyler, on being selected Sardis Secondary School’s Leader of Tomorrow for April.

The listing presentation is the first step for most sellers when they are looking for a real estate professional to market their home. They communicate what they expect from the Realtor who will list their home, and the Realtor explains their marketing strategy, including pricing recommendations and advertising. A good listing presentation takes careful planning. A written market analysis from a Realtor will help you get a clear idea of local market conditions. Many Realtors will include a marketing plan, as well as suggestions on how to make your home show well and how to make it accessible to agents. If you are talking to several companies, resist the temptation to just go with the Realtor who quotes you the highest price for your house. Look for a Realtor who is experienced, well prepared, and professional. Successful transactions involve careful collaboration between the sellers and the Realtor. When a home owner tries to sell “By Owner”, they basically use two techniques to get the word out – a plastic sign from the local hardware store and classified ads in the local newspaper. When a seller lists their home with the Professional Realtor, however, a very sophisticated process begins in order to make sales happen. Who are the potential buyers, where do they live and work? How can they be reached effectively with information that will attract them to this particular property? Many realtors already have prospective buyers for

the homes in their market. Through the Multiple Listing Service (MLS), the Realtor cooperates with other brokers in the area who will show your home to their prospective buyers. Professional Realtors use a variety of marketing techniques tailored to the individual home they are selling. They combine direct mail, telephone calls, and specialized advertising in newspaper media and the internet, to reach the sales market. In this way, activity is created on their listings that help them to sell your home as quick as possible for the best price. Having your home placed on the Multiple Listing Service provides effective advertising because it allows immediate access to such information as the price, location, number of bedrooms and baths, as well as the size of the yard, the type of heating and - air conditioning systems, and any special features. The MLS allows Realtors to feed in a buyer’s basic needs and match them up to the listings of all area Realtors. When you list your home, you are employing not only the listing Realtor to market your home, but hundreds of the Realtor’s colleagues who will work cooperatively to get your property sold as quickly as possible for the best possible price. Realtors combine pro-active marketing with realistic pricing to spell happy results for their sellers.

The saying goes, “If you want something done, give the job to a busy man.” Since 1987 I have worked hard to meet the real estate needs and challenges of thousands of Chilliwack people. In doing so, I have earned a solid reputation as Chilliwack’s foremost REALTOR and property expert.

For many people, their home is their biggest asset and their prized possession. When it comes time to buy that first home, or sell your current home and upgrade, why trust someone that doesn’t have intimate knowledge of the area and local market? Having been born and raised in Chilliwack, knowing the community and various neighbourhoods comes as second nature to me. With an extensive background in Personal and Commercial Insurance Sales and Marketing, I know what it takes to market products to the right people to achieve a quick sale and for top dollar. I love working with people and seeing my clients meet their Real Estate Goals is my main focus! When Buying or Selling Property, you need an honest, hardworking REALTOR that you can count on to be there for you and to devote the time to ensure that you are totally satisfied before, during and after your transaction. I am that REALTOR; and I welcome your calls.

I grew up in a military home and when I was a boy my father was posted to CFB Chilliwack. Cultus Lake is where I played and when we moved I never forgot Cultus Lake or Chilliwack, I could always see the mountains in my mind’s eye. My job brought me back to BC and in 1976 I decided to make Chilliwack my home. I obtained my real estate license the spring of 1980. I’ve lived a full life both personally and professionally and that life has given me a clear understanding of how things work. Life is about the people you meet and the stories created. Meeting and getting to know you is the most enjoyable thing about being a Realtor.

Chilliwack Fire Fighters’ Charitable Society is partnering with Ann Davis Transition Society for the ADTS 2013 Charity Golf Tournament on June 22. The venue has changed this year and the event will be at the Par-4 Meadowlands Golf Course. They’ve shown their support in the past by attending the annual ADTS Bowlathon, but this year they’re making the relationship a little more formal. “We support ADTS not only through donations but also we have foursomes registering to golf in the annual tourney,” said Ben Fryer, a director for the Charitable Society. “We want to make this a long-term partnership.” Part of the society’s mandate is to assist its members in supporting community programs, he said, and the firefighters have raised funds in the past with the sale of their calendars. The year 2013 marks the fifth year of the charity golf event, which raises funds for ADTS children’s programs, such as Caught in the Middle and Expressive Art Therapy, said Shelley Bolan, manager of the ADTS Transition House. “With this partnership, I think it’s going to be an incredible event

that’s mutually beneficial for both groups.” Charity Golf Tournament is June 22 at the Meadowlands Golf & Country Club, at 1 p.m. with a ‘shotgun’ start. The $75 ticket per person includes golf and a buffet dinner. Foursomes preferred. There will be a silent auction, prizes, a 50-50 Draw, as well as a chipping and putting contest. There will be a “Hole in One” for a 2012 Red Polaris Sportsman 500 Touring Edition, sponsored by Five Star Motorsports, or “Hole in One” $5000 sponsored by Investors Group. Secure a spot by calling the Meadowlands Golf Course at 604-7922276 ( for Credit Card Payments) or Ann Davis Transition Society at 604-792-2760 to pay by cash or cheque.

trips, and everything in between. If you are new to the area or just new to hiking than grabbing a free trail map that is put out by Tourism Chilliwack, or joining one of the hiking clubs can be a great way to get your foot out the door. The most popular hikes are Elk Mountain, Mt. Cheam, Lindeman lake and Greendrop Lake and of course Mt. Thom and Teapot Hill (All listed in the hiking guide). Elk Mountain is a Chilliwack favorite and is accessed above Ryder Lake and is rated as a “difficult” hike due to the steep trail, however the hike to the summit can be done in a couple of hours and then it is easy hiking along the ridgeline stretching back towards Mt. Thurston to the East. This trail affords the

Lets talk about hiking in Chilliwack. Have you looked up to the peak of Mt. Cheam and beyond and wondered if there are trails to those peaks and what it might be like to stand on top Sam of such Waddington a mountain? As a general rule there is a trail to every one of the peaks in the area, it just comes down to how difficult it might be to get to the summit and how adventurous you are to navigate your way along a trail that might not have seen much use. That being said many of the hikes in the Chilliwack area are well maintained and range in difficulty from level-ground hourlong walks, to multiday

Lineman lands spot Goal drought continues Chilliwack Minor Football product Chris Derksen heads to Manitoba in July to participate in a national football championship. Derksen has secured a roster spot on U-16 Team BC and will play in the 2013 Red River Cup. The second-year bantam offensive lineman joined 100 players at a tryout camp over the May long weekend. Football BC released the final roster Monday, naming 40

players who made the grade. “This is an incredible opportunity and experience for Chris,” said coach Suresh Parray, who will join Derksen in Manitoba, serving as Team BC’s quarterback coach. “We know Chris will represent our province and CMFA with pride and class in Winnipeg.” CMFA bantam Giants head coach Mike Derksen will also make the trip, working with Team BC as

the running backs coach. The Red River Cup runs July 6 to 14 in Winnipeg. Games will be played at the brand-new Investors Group Field, the soon-tobe home of the Canadian Football League’s Winnipeg Blue Bombers and the CIS University of Manitoba Bison.

It’s back to the drawing board for Glenn Wilson after another offensively-challenged performance from his Pacific Coast Soccer League women’s squad. Wilson’s team travelled to the North Shore Tuesday night to take on the NSGSC Stars. Wilson shuffled the lineup beforehand, looking for a way to put more balls in the back of the net. Instead, Chilliwack was kept off the scoreboard for the third time this season,

playing to a scoreless draw. “But we’re happy to get our first point on the board, and we played really, really well,” Wilson said Wednesday morning, sounding surprisingly upbeat. “We haven’t had the chance to address the lineup changes in training, so I’m confident that it will be corrected.” Wilson’s crew now sits at 0-4-1 in the PCSL standings, which leaves them last in the nine-team circuit. The road to the playoffs looks exceedingly tough,

particularly in a league that, according to Wilson, has no weak teams. But the coach believes he’s got the group to do it. This is probably the most talented team we’ve had the last few years in terms of fitness and ball skills,” he said. “We’ve got some very good youth and what we’ve got to do now is get that final ingredient right. If we can get them finishing around the net, we could be a contender.” Get league info online at pcsl.org

Speedster steals home as fastpitch girls win gold Chilliwack’s U-12 squirt girls fastpitch team went undefeated to win gold at last weekend’s South Delta Minor Fastpitch tournament. The girls went 4-0 in roundrobin play with wins over Langley, Ridge Meadows, South Delta and North Delta. Emma Cindrich was

the big bopper, leading the team with three home-runs. A semi-final win over Ridge Meadows landed Chilliwack in the finals, where they faced Langley. Down 5-2 in the last inning, the locals rallied. Sierra Dennis doubled, driving

home Cindrich and Madison Krug. Dennis later slid into home, sending the game to extra innings. Dennis pitched as well, putting on a gutsy performance. The hurler took a line drive square in the chest and dropped to the ground, prompting coaches

from both teams to race from the dugout. She begged to be left in the game, and proceeded to strike out the side. The winning run came soon after. With two outs on the scoreboard, Chilliwack’s Katelyn

McDonald was at bat, down two strikes in the count. Sierra Jensen was on third base. As the Langley pitcher sent the ball toward home plate, Jensen took off. When the dust cloud cleared, she had stolen home and won the game.

The Fraser Valley Rowing Club is offering a summer Learn to Row program. Running June 1-8 from 9:30 to 11 a.m. daily, the program will teach the basics of rowing in a quiet, picturesque setting.

Sports Body-checking out

VERNON’S SPECIAL SPRING

STAY & PLAY

Hockey Canada’s Board of Directors voted last weekend to remove body checking from Canadian peewee hockey, effective immediately. When the voting was complete, only Saskatchewan stood against the motion. Hockey Canada also voted to put together a work group that will build a mandatory national checking and instructional resource program. The goal will be supporting the implementation of checking skills at the novice to peewee levels, better prepping those players for the start of full-contact hockey at the bantam and midget levels. The body checking motion was the highlight of Hockey Canada’s 94th AGM, held in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island. Hockey Alberta and Hockey Nova Scotia moved ahead of Hockey Canada, banning body-checking at the peewee level earlier this month. Hockey Quebec already had a ban in place.

Chilliwack’s Carolyn Putt is back from Romania, rested and recharged and ready to throw herself into the final stages of the Kin’s Green Fighters Challenge. Putt stayed in Romania for two weeks and tried to maintain her health and fitness regimen as much as possible. It was tough. “I knew my friends were going to be making all my old favourite foods, and in all the villages we visited people would constantly offer us their homemade treats,” Putt said. “So I did indulge, but I don’t feel guilty about it, because I know I won’t

be able to eat those treats again for a long time.” Putt injured her ankle three weeks prior to leaving, spraining it during a reunion basketball game at Agassiz secondary school. The inactivity that resulted, by her estimation, killed any chance she had of winning the overall competition. The Romanian experience might have killed her chances of reaching her goal weight. “But I am OK with that, because this competition has shown me that I can be healthy and fit if I choose to be,” Putt said. “I know I can reach my goal weight after the competition

ends, even if it is a couple weeks late.” Putt was somewhat surprised to find herself missing fruits and vegetables in Romania. The only fruit she ate was in homemade jam. “And the only vegetables were either some form of cabbage, or in a soup form,” she laughed. Activity wise, she did a bunch of walking. Putt went with 15 people from the day program she works at, and followed a carefully crafted schedule. “It was packed full of leading kids programs and training sessions or visiting schools,” she said. “I was supporting the individuals from

our program who came along, and so I had no chance of getting out and doing anything.” Putt lived in Romania for a time, starting in 2007, and remembered another reason why she was never too active. “I decided I would try going for a morning run, only to be chased by stray dogs,” she recalled. “Maybe that is where my dislike of running stems from.” Putt had to run at the end of the trip, and not by choice. “We needed to actually run through the airport and up escalators to catch our connecting plane,” she laughed. “Half of our group didn’t make it, and

had to spend the night in London! But I got myself and the individuals I was supporting to our gate just as the plane was scheduled to be taking off. It was the first running I’d done in weeks.” The Kin’s Green Fighters Challenge gathered 13 contestants from 13 Lower Mainland communities, challenging them to live healthier lives. They were fitness tested before the competition, and will be tested again after. The winner wins a cruise for two to a sunny destination. Get more info online at kinsgreenfighters. com.

OBITUARIES

FORTIN Joy Gertrude (nee Abrams)

Joy peacefully passed away surrounded by family and friends in Chilliwack on May 20, 2013 at the age of 87 years old. She was born on April 22, 1926 in New Westminster, B.C.

Henderson’s Funeral Homes & Crematorium Ltd 45901 Victoria Ave Chilliwack, BC (604)792-1344 Online condolences can be left at www.hendersonsfunerals.com

Whenever visiting Joy in sunny Sardis you’d be promptly offered one of her famous peanut butter and marshmallow squares, slice of homemade pumpkin pie or a warm cup of tea (unless you’d prefer Ovaltine). While you caught up, she might have put on some big band music. Perhaps something musician Laurence performed for Joy when the two first met. If you faintly heard CKNW 980 outside her door, no need to knock, Joy was probably at Cultus Lake. Maybe out for a swim, game of cribbage or stroll to Sunnyside. One of Joy’s motto’s was to “travel when you’re young” and she did just that with her family and close friends that created many wonderful memories over the years. She has the slides to prove it. The family is thankful for the exceptional care from Dr. Mark MacKenzie, as well as the staff at Valley Haven and Hampton House. A Celebration of Life will be held at 1:30 pm on Thursday, May 30, 2013 at Carman United Church, 7258 Vedder Road Chilliwack. A Reception to follow the Service in the church hall. In Lieu of flowers, please make donations to the Canadian Cancer Society or to Carman United Church. Henderson’s Funeral Home & Crematorium Ltd. 45901 Victoria Ave 604-792-1344. Online condolences can be left at www.hendersonsfunerals.com
