ROBBERY SUSPECT

Vikki HOPES Abbotsford News

In December, Cody Halfpenny and his older brother, Tyler, visited their grandparents in Arizona for a week. There, they rode ATVs, swam in the pool and enjoyed just hanging out together. Back home in Abbotsford, Cody attended Grade 8 at Chief Dan George Middle School and was a typical 13-year-old boy who loved video games, skateboarding, watching movies and hanging out with his friends.

necessary for waste disposal. “It’s proof to Metro Vancouver that you don’t have to build these monsters.” Malcolm Brodie, a Metro board member and Zero Waste Committee, said the plan for waste flow management is unrelated to any incinerator plans, which have not been finalized. He said Metro is trying to ensure waste goes to their facilities so it is disposed of according to their environmental standards, and produces enough revenue. A report from staff states that the city will work with the Fraser Valley Regional District to investigate alternatives to Metro’s garbage disposal system, ensure its waste is not sent by Metro to the incinerator, and its future tipping fees are not being directed to Metro for construction and operation of the incinerator. Representatives from Metro Vancouver will be present at the June 10 council meeting.

QUESTION

WebTalk

OF THE WEEK

First Pride event

Do you think waste diversion can eliminate the necessity for a new Metro Vancouver incinerator?

It was an incredible event for my partner and I and our two children. I am proud that we were able to show our kids about love and freedom of love. Thank you, Abbotsford, and all the organizers of this amazing event! Melissa Connors

To answer, go to abbynews.com

LAST WEEK, WE ASKED:

Awesome. But why the word queer? I live in Los Angeles and that word is not something that is used by the general gay/ straight population. Darrin Van Keulen

Do you think the city should rescind its ban on harm reduction measures?

Yes, you are quite right. The word queer, at one time, was considered a derogatory term, but the word gay only describes one sexuality/ category of people. The word queer, in the 21st century, has evolved into no longer being a derogatory term, but an all-encompassing term. Cherese Reemaul

letters Dish out jail time I heartily applaud the tireless work of our local law enforcement officers, but can’t we all see what’s really going on here?

Not much. As I

see it, for those who drive distracted and get a nominal fine, it’s just the price of doing business.

Cadet inspection parade SCHOOL DISTRICT

NEWS Twinning Schools project A very successful twinning project between Dave Kandal Elementary on the district’s west side, and Dr.T.A.Swift Elementary on the east side was held this year. The ‘School Twinning’ is a partnership with the City of Abbotsford and the ABC Diversity Project, supported by a three-year social grant from Citizen and Immigration Canada. It supports the pairing of schools from different neighborhoods with different demographics, and connecting students from each school. Activities included pen pal writing, visiting cultural/heritage sites in the community together, and the sharing of cultural celebrations with the twinned school. As a result of the initiative, students developed a greater awareness of our cultural diversity, allowing them to learn from their peers and helping eliminate misconceptions about their cultural and religious differences. This program was the first of its kind in Canada, and the Federal government is now seeking to expand it to other communities.Well done, Abbotsford!

Summer session courses online Abbotsford Virtual School offers flexible, self-paced scheduling for summer session courses in Math, Science, English, Social Studies, and Planning, for grades 10 to 12 and adults. Courses begin June 24. Check out the course selection and register at www.avs34.com

Local Air Cadet Squadron 861 Silverfox will celebrate their 35th annual inspection parade at the Ag-Rec Building in Abbotsford on Saturday, June 1. The reviewing officer for this year’s ceremony will be Brigadier General (retired) Bill Buckham, RCAF. CWO First Class Connor Buckham, 18, will command the parade square of 861 Cadets. Ceremonies begin at 1 p.m. at the facility at 32470 Haida Drive. The annual ceremonial review

is the result of months of preparation and a great deal of training. The Silverfox Air Cadets are celebrating the end of their training year with a formal parade to demonstrate the group’s achievements and successes accomplished throughout the year.

POOL SEASON IS HERE! Q. What do you think of these “Salt Water” systems we keep hearing about? A. Hmmmm…. Salt water pool… touchy subject. The real name for these units is “Electrolysis Chlorinator”. Salt water pools use a special piece of equipment that converts salt (Sodium Chloride - NaCI) to active chlorine in your pool. That’s right, you now have a machine that allows you to make your own chlorine. There are 2 advantages to the: #1 - It allows a certain level of automation to the chlorination of your pool and #2 - Salt makes the water “feel” different. Some people like this, some don’t. The main disadvantage is the salt is very corrosive, and without full and proper balancing of the water, it’s not long before things start to break down… expensive things, like heaters and stainless railings,

and aluminum coping, and steel walls, and lights, and all other metallic components of your pool. The hidden disadvantage is the cost. When you factor in the cost of the unit, replacement “cells”, and increased maintenance, making your own chlorine costs about 4 times what it would cost to just buy it off the shelf. Is it worth it? in the last 5 years, we have taken out more salt systems than we’ve installed. You have to judge that for yourself. However, for those that have these systems, we have the specialty products to help you get your salt water pool up and running… highest purity fast dissolving pool salt, cell cleaners, corrosion inhibitors, a special salt shock called “Revise” and computerized water testing to make sure your salt water pool stays in the best shape!

Pot activist Tim Felger’s charter rights were breached, but he is still going to trial for drug charges in Mission, a B.C. Supreme Court judge ruled Tuesday in Chilliwack. Justice Bill Smart ruled that police breached Felger’s rights when an undercover officer entered his Das Bhang store/office in Mission in 2011, and gathered evidence which was used among details to obtain a search warrant. The results of the search, in part, led to Felger’s arrest and subsequent charges in March 2011. Felger had posted a sign outside his store, indicating that no police or RCMP members, or other

government agents, were allowed on the premises without a warrant. Smart ruled that some of the evidence police gathered during those visits – and which partly led to their reasons for obtaining a search warrant – was obtained in violation of Felger’s charter rights and should be excluded. However, Smart ruled that the search warrant had been lawfully obtained because of other information police gathered outside of Felger’s store – located at Horne Street and North Railway Avenue. This evidence was collected during police surveillance and interviews with neighbouring businesses. The ruling means that some of the evidence is still admissible in court, resulting in Felger’s trial proceeding. Jury selection is set to begin next Monday,

VIKKI HOPES Abbotsford News

Despite a court finding that police breached his rights, Tim Felger is still going to trial on drug charges.

with the trial slated for June 17. The Crown lawyer indicated that he will be adapting the charges to reflect the judge’s ruling on the inadmissibility of some of the evidence. Felger was initially charged with two counts of trafficking and two counts of possession for the purpose of trafficking. Speaking outside of court, Felger said he expected the judge to

agree that his rights had been breached. “It’s really basic. The police need a warrant to enter my property, period. No discussion anymore. If they don’t have a warrant, they’re entering as trespassers,” he said. However, he said he was disappointed with the second half of the decision. “I think that the judge made his decision to proceed to trial on very flimsy evidence.” Felger went to court last December on 2009 drug charges related to his former Da Kine store on Essendene Avenue in Abbotsford. He was acquitted of all seven charges, after the judge ruled that all evidence collected by police following a search warrant at that location was inadmissible. Crown lawyers are appealing that decision, but a court date has not yet been set.

Abstract artist at Kariton Kathleen Menges focuses on intuition and creative process

Local artist Kathleen Menges will have her collection of abstract paintings in cold wax and oil medium on display at the Kariton Art Gallery from May 31 to June 25. The collection – “Insight Out” – reflects Menges’ focus on how intuition moves us in the creative process, allowing her to “tap into a subconscious level and express what comes.” A resident of Abbotsford, Menges is a multiple dis-

ciplinary artist working mostly in abstract. She has a range of training in cold wax and oil, encaustics, mixed media, sculpting and Trompe-l’oeil, and her studies in spirituality are evident and an undercurrent in all of her paintings. Menges has exhibited in several solo and group exhibitions throughout the Lower Mainland and holds regular art workshops in her studios in Abbotsford and Langley.

The show will run from May 31 to June 25 at the Kariton Art Gallery, located in Mill Lake Park at 2387 Ware St. The gallery’s hours are Tuesday to Friday from 12 p.m. to 5 p.m., and Saturday to Sunday from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Menges will be present at an opening reception on Sunday, June 2, from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. For additional information, visit abbotsfordartscouncil.org.

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,” director of trades Rolf Arnold said during a recent open house at UFV’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,” Arnold said, admitting, “If I was young and ambitious I’d be in here in a heartbeat.” At 42 weeks, this Transport-Canada– 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 finally and 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 repair is also unique in the trades world in that it appeals to as many

Grads gearing up for convocation

If UFV trades director Rolf Arnold started over, Aircraft Structures Repair would be his program of choice.

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. For more, see ufv.ca/aerospace.htm.

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, 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,

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 seaplanes. 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.

Sample topics: Working with like-minded car buffs helps students share knowledge and expertise before heading into the growing world of custom autos.

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. With the average tech 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

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 p.m., 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 a.m. to honour UFV’s College of Arts students, with the third and final ceremony later that day at 2:30 p.m. to commemorate graduates from the Faculty of Science, Faculty of Health Sciences, and Faculty of Trades and Technology.

Evening of jazz The Envision Coffee House Concert Series is presenting Frank David at the Wired Monk on McCallum Road in Abbotsford. The concert takes place June 1 from 8-10 p.m. Singing the songs of Frank Sinatra and other jazz standard greats, David is an Abbotsford-based vocalist who regularly a p pears at vari o u s local venu e s a n d Va n DAVID couver night clubs. As a young boy, David began singing traditional Italian songs for family and friends and was soon wowing audiences with his innate ability to sing complicated tenor arias. Upon moving to Vancouver in 1995, he decided to obtain vocal coaching from an established opera voice coach. The study of voice and breath control continued through to the present day. David’s powerful, three octave range and velvety smooth vocals make for a truly memorable and entertaining evening.

To this point of the high school track and field season, Alex Siemens and Callum Pilgrim’s ascendant running careers have travelled on parallel tracks. But this weekend at the provincial championships at Langley’s McLeod Athletic Park, their paths will intersect, as the W.J. Mouat Hawks teammates f i n d themselves sieMens cast as competitors for the first time. Siemens and Pilgrim have authored a remarkable series of results, sweeping to victory in the 800m, 1500m and 3000m races at three meets – the AbbyMission district championships, t h e Upper Fraser pilgriM Valleys, and the Fraser Valleys – while competing in the senior and junior divisions, respectively. But there’s no junior designation at provincials, meaning Grade 10 student Pilgrim will run with Siemens and the Grade 12 crew. “We’re really close friends, so it’s really exciting to race against each other,” Siemens enthused. “I think it’ll be good for both of us,” Pilgrim echoed. “We’ll push each other.” Siemens, 17, and Pilgrim, 16, are mirror images in terms of their middle-distance running prowess, but they’re unique in how they’re wired and the paths they took to get to this point.

From A18

Siemens burst onto the scene with a history-making performance in 2009, becoming the first Grade 9 student to win the B.C. high school crosscountry title. Her Grade 10 and 11 seasons, though, didn’t pan out as she’d hoped. A hip injury limited her in 201011, and she struggled to reach her previous personal bests in 2011-12. “I won the race in Grade 9, and I always say it was a blessing and a curse,” Siemens said. “There was a lot of pressure on me. A lot of that was from myself. I have really high expectations. “I didn’t really know if I loved running anymore, because I’d done it for so long and I was just putting too much pressure on myself, not enjoying races,” she added. “I went to sports psychologists, I tried everything.” Siemens rediscovered the joy of running as she learned to integrate her religious beliefs with her approach to the sport. She draws inspiration from Chariots of Fire, the 1981 Oscar-winning movie about Christian runner Eric Liddell. In the film, Liddell described his running inspiration thusly: “I believe that God made me for a purpose. But He also made me fast, and when I run, I feel His pleasure.” As she’s adopted that mentality, Siemens has taken off on the track once again, and Mouat coach Cameron Smith said she’s “running with a smile on her face.” “God made me to be a runner,” Siemens explained. “I just want to enjoy it, encourage others, and just do it because I love it.” Ask anyone about Pilgrim, and the word “competitive” is bound to come up within a couple sentences. Running is only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to her athletic endeavors. She was a member of Mouat’s B.C. title-winning junior girls basketball team this past season; is an elite softball player; played metro league and school soccer; and suited up for the Hawks volleyball team as well. In an era of specialization, few athletes her age keep such a busy sports schedule, and fewer still execute at such a high level. “It’s all different

seasons, so usually it works out,” Pilgrim said with a grin. “For track and softball, sometimes it falls on the same day. I’ll be running so I’ll miss the softball warm-up, but I’ll get there on time (for the game). All the coaches are

pretty supportive.” Racing senior athletes at provincials will be a challenge for Pilgrim, but Smith believes her competitive nature will carry her. “Callum is a beast,” he said. “She can be pushed beyond her limits.”

to Stafford earlier in the year. “They were able to improve throughout the season, and take down the giants who were undefeated.” Bain’s try was his second of the game, and Eric Chartier and Shaun Murray chipped in with one apiece and Jayden Ned booted a convert. The win capped a terrific rugby season at Fraser Middle. The Grade 7 boys won the St. Michael’s University School sevens tournament in Victoria behind an MVP performance from Carter Miller, who scored 17 tries in the tourney. Additionally, the Grade 7/8 girls rugby team won the AbbyMission title, beating Heritage Park of Mission in the final. The Eugene Reimer Ravens Grade 8 boys won the Fraser Valley bronze medal, beating Queen Elizabeth of Surrey 26-12. Chavis Spencer (2), Arbazz Gill and Bobby Narang scored tries, while Arvin Sharma kicked two penalties and Karn Minhaf was named man of the match. “They finished off their season strong, and put together a complete game,” Reimer coach Mark Grillandini said.

RUN FOR WATER START

ENVISION FINANCIAL RUN FOR WATER

AN AMAZING ONE MILLION RAISED IN ONLY SIX YEARS Sponsors, teachers, students, runners all play a role in pushing fundraising into the seven figure territory for local event

Mayor Banman was on hand to sing “Oh Canada” to the crowd warming up for the 10K and 5K races. In his encouragement to the participants he said, “How fitting it is to have rain today to remind us of why we are running. We complain about how much rain we have and yet there are people in Ethiopia who don’t have this at all.”

THE RUN FOR WATER SOCIETY

Race Director Kelly Neumann shared, “We are deeply grateful to the community of Abbotsford for embracing this event. We couldn’t do this without our amazing sponsors, volunteers and of course all of the thousands of runners.”

RUN FOR WATER PROVIDES EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING TO LOWER MAINLAND SCHOOLS

By Michelle Watrin

his year 10,000 students participated in curriculum created by the Envision a Better World: Learn, Create, Run program sponsored by Envision Financial. Teachers of kindergarten through grade 12 used downloadable lesson plans focused on many aspects of water – the crisis in Ethiopia, social responsibility, climate change and health issues.

WE’RE CONVINCED MORE THAN “ EVER THAT CHILDREN ARE PASSIONATE AND POWERFUL! ” Betty Baerg, school liaison of the Run for Water explains. “Students from more than 30 schools from Vancouver to Agassiz employed their creativity and energy to raise money for clean water with the end result of over $65,000 dollars raised…and still counting!” Jasbir Singh, Vice Principal at Colleen and Gordie Howe Middle School, shares the impact the program can have on a school. “Research shows that by giving students chances to help others actually makes them healthier and gives them a sense of purpose. The Run for Water has become a fabric at our school with all the teachers buying into the cause. Every pod in our school created a fundraiser, and then we had our own mini run and assembly. We had around 70 kids run the 5K on Sunday, and we are really proud of their efforts.”

This year, like 350 other people, she decided to get more involved by volunteering her time. “When you run, you see some of the volunteers on the course, but you don’t realize how many people are behind the scenes,” Dueck shares as she finished welcoming the elite athletes on Sunday morning. “This is my first time on the other side. The elite athletes have all been so happy, and they told me a little about how they pace themselves. It was really interesting. I’ve really enjoyed myself here as well as at package pickup yesterday.”

Formerly a professional runner on the Irish National Team, his best 5 K run was 13:29 (our winner set a course record at 17:03). “My body can’t take the pounding anymore, so I continue in the sport I love through announcing. I announce almost every weekend. I try very hard to say everyone’s name as they cross the finish line because I know it is important to recognize their hard work.” Rob Quiring is a member of the Run for Water Society, and he spends countless hours ensuring the routes are safe and secure. “[For the longer races] we look for a scenic course that showcases Abbotsford and doesn’t have large hills,” he explains. “We have to turn in a traffic management plan to the City of Abbotsford, and ours is over 50 pages long. I also contact Southern Rail to make sure no trains are en route during a race.” But the behind the scenes award this year clearly goes to Steve Parks who went the extra mile… literally! Parks was volunteering on the marathon route when the final marathoner came through the 24k check point. After chatting with him, Parks started to run alongside the marathoner to encourage him as he made his way to the finish line, all while in jeans and street shoes. The Run for Water Society was so moved by Parks that they awarded him a medal too.

In 2005, Nikki Scott was in a horrible car accident on the Coquihalla. Her ribs, sternum and a collar bone were broken, as well as parts of her back. The doctors said she was lucky not to be paralyzed, but concluded that she would have pain for the rest of her life. They also told her she would never be able to do something she had previously loved so much: run. Which is why her finishing the 56 K Run for Water Ultra Marathon on Saturday was nothing short of a miracle. The Run for Water Ultra Marathon hosted by worldrenowned adventure runner Ray Zahab started last year and was a huge success. The 2013 run included 17 participants who raised a remarkable $35,000 – enough for one village in Ethiopia to receive clean water. “It is a really special thing,” Randall Peters, member of the Run for Water Society and ultra marathon participant shared, “when runners can come together to challenge themselves, get to know each other, and raise so much money for such a great cause.” This particular ultra marathon is unique in that it is not a competition but a team effort in which the runners support each other in a group. The runners stop every 5-10K for food and drink, when electrolytes and potato chips fly in a fast and furious pace.

ULTRA TEAM

Along with the cause of bringing clean water to remote villages in Ethiopia, Zahab was the top reason the runners came out to challenge themselves. Zahab, in his fifth year partnering with the Envison Financial Run for Water, talks with participants via phone conferences in the months leading up to the run, explaining training techniques and insights on nutrition. “I believe in the family of the Run for Water,” Zahab explains. “So many organizations say they are about one thing, but really they are about another. This organization is the best charity event of its kind in Canada, and I will continue to come back every year to be part of it.” The runners ranged from 27-year-old prison guard Myles Krauchi who had never run a half marathon before to 60-year-old Marg Taylor who wanted her grandkids to see her love of running. They ran a scenic course from Chilliwack to the UFV campus. “YOLO [you only live once] is a lie,” runner Pete Schofield declared with his contagious smile to the

RAY ZAHAB

group with 20 K to go. “You only die once, and you have a chance to live every day. Today we are liv-ing!” The finish line proved to be emotional for the runners with many family and friends there to cheer them in. And for Scott, who also volunteered to hand out race packages the day before and medals the day after the ultra, even though the 56 K run was physically painful, the reward was worth it. “It was great to know that something that has helped me feel healthy again [running] is actually helping someone else as well. It is a great cause, and I will come back every year.”

SPECIAL NOTE:

In order to do research for this article, I had planned to run 10K with the group. I ended up running the entire 56 K. Zahab has a way of making you believe in yourself, and everyone in the group had such a fantastic, positive spirit that I willed myself to finish. It is a special memory I will treasure and feel extremely lucky to have been a part of a special group.

THE GAME

Power trip 20 local University of the Fraser Valley (UFV) students are competing for fortune, fame and bragging rights with the return of the biggest reality contest from The Abbotsford News. One student will win the grand prize of $5,000 cash, the title of Freshman (formerly the Intern) of the Year and a summer internship with the Abbotsford Entertainment and Sports Centre (AESC) marketing department.

THE CHALLENGE: Twenty UFV students are divided into 10 teams. Each team is associated with a corporate partner in the community. Their challenge was to create a marketing plan, video and a full-page advertisement (to be published in The Abbotsford News Daily) for their sponsor business. All of the team projects can be viewed online at abbynews.com/contests. Teams have also been paired with a local charity and will do their best to raise exposure — making a positive change in our community.

that the teams choose to use! Votes can be entered ten times per day, per IP address, at abbynews.com/contests. However, every contestant has immunity for the first four weeks. The News will track the weekly votes and announce them via Twitter every Thursday at 8 a.m. at twitter.com/abbynews. In the Thursday, June 13th edition of The Abbotsford News there will be a mass elimination of seven teams. Voting for the remaining three teams will continue until Friday, June 21 at 5 pm.

Spring Dos & Don’ts DO INVEST IN A SHORTS SUIT The shorts suit had a major presence on the runway this season. DO consider the length of the shorts when purchasing your suit.

DON’T BE AFRAID TO EMBRACE A BOLDLY COLOURED OR PATTERNED STYLE DON’T FORGET A LITTLE WHITE DRESS DON’T think you can wear a white dress only during the day. DO remember well-fitting foundation garments are a necessity when wearing white.

THE FINALE: Three last teams will be invited to the grand finale at Finnegan’s Pub on Monday, June 24. In a boardroom setting, the judges will take into consideration the votes, the teamwork, the project and the sponsor evaluations. In addition, each contestant will provide an individual pitch as to why he or she should be the Freshman of the Year. There, the winner will be announced and presented with the prize. A twist will coming on the night!

THE ELIMINATION:

WHY VOTE?

Readers will have the opportunity to fire teams daily based on a list of questions and answers completed by the competitors, marketing plan, as well as their full-page advertisement and video. Follow your favourite teams via various social media sites

The contest is based on your votes, which is why we are awarding a grand prize for one person. Following a draw, the winning voter will receive a $1000 shopping trip to Sevenoaks Shopping Centre. Vote online at abbynews.com/contests, vote often!

DO EMBRACE BLACK-AND-WHITE GRAPHIC PRINTS DO think about the size of the print. The smaller they are, the more flattering they’ll be.

DO GET SPORTY DON’T go overboard with the trend, though. DO work bright colours into the equation. Yellows and oranges lend a girly touch to the athletic style.

DON’T SHY AWAY FROM MIXING FLORAL PRINTS DO remember the key to mixing prints is to make sure each pattern is a totally different size. You’ll have quite a strong look if you mix patterns, so DON’T go crazy with wild accessories too.

DON’T UNDERESTIMATE THE POWER OF A COLOURFUL PURSE DO play with sizes. A bold, oversize clutch for day and a mini cross-body for night are fun accents. DON’T be afraid to invest in this trend. A nice red handbag can match just as many things as a neutral one. <<< DRESS AVAILABLE AT THE BAY

Building your business wardrobe The transition from college student to full-time professional requires a number of changes. Those changes include updating your wardrobe to give it a more professional feel.

without being noticed. Accessories and dress shirts can offer pops of colour when necessary. A nice handbag or pair of shoes can quite easily add colour to an otherwise monotone ensemble. When selecting items from the rack, look for those that fit well but aren’t too constrictive or racy.

What constitutes a professional wardrobe has changed over the years but adding classic, professional pieces to your closet is still recommended. While the rules may not be as strict as they once were, dressing conservatively and cleanly in an office environment is always a safe bet.

DON’t Break the BaNk In order to achieve a wardrobe transformation without breaking the bank, the fashion experts advise adding separates to build around a base suit. Find a suit that is flattering to your figure and make it a workplace staple. Then purchase coordinating pants, sweaters, shirts, another skirt, and accessories that can be mixed and matched with elements from the suit to create different looks. If your budget allows, purchase another suit in a different colour so you can continue to build wardrobe possibilities. When selecting base pieces, opt for neutral colours of tan, gray, black, and blue so that these items can be worn repeatedly

hustleforcanuckplace.ca

Many employers have adopted dress-down days as perks for their employees. Although you may be invited to dress more casually, avoid dressing for a day at the beach or hanging around the house. Opt for trouser-style jeans that are free of rips and embellishments. If athletic shoes are allowed, make sure they are clean and not the pair you wear while hiking up Sumas Mountain after a rainstorm. Avoid graphic T-shirts that feature potentially offensive or suggestive messages. In more conservative companies, dressing down may be opting for khakis instead of suits. It is important to know the difference.

BuSineSS leader

2013 BC New-Canadian Entrepreneur Award Recipent Jag’s MJM Furniture Showcase Jag Jaswal of Jag’s MJM Furniture Showcase has received the Retail award for the 21st Annual ETHNO BC Council of British Columbia BC NEWCANADIAN ENTREPRENEUR AWARD for 2013. This prestigious award was presented recently to Jag Jaswal owner of Jag’s MJM Furniture Showcase with locations in Abbotsford, Langley, Maple Ridge and Chilliwack. Featured guest at the Hyatt Regency Hotel, Vancouver, B.C. was The Hon. Jason Kenney, P.C., M.P. The awards recognize the achievements of successful New-Canadian entrepreneurs who have demonstrated business leadership, innovation and community involvement. This year’s award recognized the leaders in the following businesses: Export, Service, Retail, Manufacturing and Wholesale. Jag’s MJM Furniture has become a household name for furniture shoppers throughout the Lower Mainland since the first store opened its doors in 1987. The company has established itself as a leader in the home furnishings business with its constant approach to staying on top of the latest trends and styles in the market and making customer service an immediate priority. Jag Jaswal immigrated to Canada along with his mother and siblings in 1977. Jag attended high school while also working on the farms picking berries and helping to provide for the family.

After graduating from high school in 1984, Jag got a full time job in the furniture manufacturing industry where he worked for 3 years. In 1987, Jag and his older brother Jeet opened the first MJM store in Surrey, BC with Jag holding a 25% share. Upon opening the store, Jag started doing deliveries and worked his way up over the years, moving into the position of Warehouse Manager, and eventually sales. In 1994, Jag became Store Manager for the second MJM location which opened in Abbotsford. As the company name grew and business flourished, the third MJM location opened its doors in Maple Ridge, BC in 2008. In January of 2011 Jag became 100% owner of the Abbotsford and Maple Ridge locations which now go by Jag’s MJM Furniture. Within two years, Jag has opened three more locations. In 2011 Jag opened his third Jag’s MJM Furniture location in Langley, followed by his fourth location in Chilliwack, in 2012. Earlier this year Jag opened his fifth location and second in Abbotsford under the name Buy-Rite Furniture & Mattresses. Jag’s MJM Furniture continues to grow its brand within the furniture market while offering home furnishings buyers an outstanding experience in selecting the right furniture that matches their décor.

42 In Memory of Scott Gmur February 20, 1967 May 30, 2011 We lost a loved one, with a heart of gold. How much we miss him, can never be told. He shared his troubles, and helped us along. If we follow his footsteps, we will never go wrong. What he suffered, he told but few. He did not deserve, what he went through, Tired and weary, he made no fuss. But tried so hard, to stay with us. We prayed for a miracle, all in vain. That God would make him well again But God knew best, we had to part. It eased your pain, but broke our hearts. We love and miss you dearly Scott Until we meet again.

BIRTHS

June 2, 2010

If tears could build a stairway, And memories a lane. We’d walk right up to Heaven, And bring you home again. Our hearts still ache in sadness. And tears still flow What it meant to lose you No one will ever know. Loved and never forgotten your loving wife Lynn, Rodney (Christine), Lisa (Terry) and Karen (Steve), grandchildren, great grandchildren & family.

THIBAULT, Rick June 22, 1943 - May 27, 1988 Remembering you is easy, we do it everyday. It’s just the pain of losing you, that never goes away. Love Babe, Troy & Chantelle and Family.

This world, however beautiful, Was never meant to be The place that we would call Our home for all eternity. And though we would not Choose to leave, A loving God knows best, And in His time, He lifts us to A place of peace and rest. For He has built a mansion Where His children will abide, Free from pain and sorrow, Forever at His side. And though these ones We love so much Have left our present sight And passed into a better world Of majesty and light, Someday we’ll be together In our Father’s home above, Where we’ll thank Him For His mercy and Praise Him for His love. Lovingly remembered and forever missed, Stan, Trevor & Dana, Michelle & Chris, Rhonda & Mark & Bobbi

Exemplifying the humble grace with which she lived, and surrounded by the family she raised and selflessly loved, it is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved Mom and Oma, Anna Sunder, on Friday, May 24th, at the age of 80.

She will also be missed by many dear friends and the family is grateful to them for their friendship, care and concern. A special thank you to Hilda Finch for her dedicated companionship, especially as Momâ€™s health declined. A sincere thank you is also extended to those who cared for Mom when she was in Mission Memorial Hospital and to the doctors, nurses and staff at the Christine Morrison Hospice for their kind and gentle care of Mom in her final days and for their support of the family during such a difficult time. A Prayer Service will be held on Friday, May 31, 2013 at 7:30 pm and a Funeral Mass on Saturday, June 1, 2013 at 11:00 am at St. Josephâ€™s Catholic Church, 32550 Seventh Ave., Mission, BC.
