Human-caused wildfire on Cultus Lake cliff contained Jennifer Feinberg The Progress
Dense smoke rising out of the woods at the south end of Cultus Lake grew into a wildfire Monday night that was a little over a hectare in size by Tuesday. Overnight rains helped by Wednesday, and it was fully contained. Crews with the Coastal Fire Centre report that the fire near Lindell Beach was 60 per cent contained on Tuesday morning, said information officer Donna MacPherson. The fire near a popular cliff diving area was determined to be human-caused since there were no lightning strikes in the area recently, she said. The fire measured 1.3 ha and the crews were in mop-up mode yesterday. Firefighting aircraft, called air tankers, were battling the blaze Tuesday afternoon, near the Lindell Beach area. There was a unit crew of 20 dispatched, with a rappel crew of three, and the use of a boat from BC Parks. Air tankers and helicopters were buzzing over the lake since Monday night, dropping fire retardant and buckets of water in an effort to contain the blaze. They asked residents and boaters to stay out of the path of the aircraft and boats at work. There were no evacuations from the cliff face, and no injuries reported. jfeinberg@theprogress.com Twitter.com/chwkjourno
Summer school takes new approach Alina Konevski The Progress
For middle school students who failed a subject during the year, the days of simply redoing the class during summer are over in Chilliwack. This year, the Chilliwack school district is trying something new with its summer learning programming. Instead of taking a specific summer school course, such as Grade 7 math or English, students enrolled in summer learning take a ‘summit course,’ in which they spend the morning for four weeks in July to cover math, English, social studies,

science, and a daily physical activity (DPA) such as soccer or yoga. “It’s a new wave of thinking we’ve incorporated into summer learning. Our belief is that if students are struggling in one academic area, most likely they are struggling in others,” said Paul Allanson, summer learning acting vice-principal. Students who fail a class are likely disconnected from school and struggling in other subjects, the theory goes, and a rounded-out supplemental program would serve them better. The change in format comes after several years of study, including watching how well a similar pro-
2014 SIERRA
gram in Maple Ridge has done. The provincially funded summit course is available to students coming out of Grade 7, 8, and 9, as well as Grade 6 students who want to preview the upcoming grade’s offerings. While English and math are taught in blocks of time, students spend 1.5 hours a day on a project of their choosing, which counts for their social studies and science learning. The project could be anything from researching black bears to compiling a list of recreation options in the Fraser Valley. “We’ve come up with a theme for them. They design the question, they design the research

project around that question. That takes in a lot of the English, math, and the science and social studies aspects, and it really makes it personalized learning for themselves,” said Allanson. This month’s summit course includes fully funded field trips to a rock climbing gym in Abbotsford, a hike up Teapot Hill, and a walk to the Great Blue Heron Nature Reserve. Students pass or fail the program as a whole, so someone who struggles in math must only succeed in the other subjects in order to complete the summit course. Continued: LEARNING/ p25

New foundation finds shelter for Chilliwack homeless Jennifer Feinberg The Progress
The goal is to build the inventory of affordable housing in Chilliwack — for the homeless or those at risk. Chilliwack Housing for Homeless Foundation is ready to go, formed by a board of real estate and construction professionals who estimate they can house someone in need for as little as $35,000. “There’s very little if any overhead, which will allow
us to provide housing to various community groups at affordable prices,” said Alex MacDonald of Remax Reality who made a presentation to council in chambers Tuesday. They won’t provide any services, just residential properties that they will purchase, fix up, and then turn over to community groups to administer. That’s why when a donation is made to them, “it goes right into bricks and mortar,” he underlined. It became crystallized
that it was a serious issue needing attention when he was confronted with people sleeping a cardboard container in a building that he owned. “It became clear, as it has to the community, that it’s not the province’s or the federal government’s problem, but everyone’s problem,” he said. It took the foundation some time to come to fruition, and get the necessary approvals. “But we’ve met all the criteria and we’re here now.”
They purchased a unit in the spring of last year to get started. They have some assets in the bank. Over time they want to build equity and end up like the Chilliwack Foundation with millions in assets, to become a player on the Chilliwack scene “to help,” he said. MacDonald presented the cold stats: More men than women are homeless. Most have mental health issues, and/or addictions. In 2008 there were 98 people homeless according
to a homeless count done Fraser Valley wide, and that number rose to 111 in 2011. Those numbers never include couch-surfers or anyone who lives in their car. “It’s an exciting time, going forward as we take it to the next level,” he told council. Coun. Stam thanked him for the “Herculean task” of pulling together the foundation at the side of their desks, and said he’d support it any way they could. “Seeing a group of people
come together and act on a need is truly appreciated,” he said. “Affordable housing is the missing piece at the end of that continuum of care, since without a home, they’re right back to square one and it’s a vicious cycle.” Mayor Sharon Gaetz noted that there was a need in the community, and they didn’t wait for someone else to pick up the slack. “You said, someone can do it. Here I am,” she added. jfeinberg@theprogress.com Twitter.com/chwkjourno
Repurposing art to build community bridges Jennifer Feinberg The Progress
It’s an art project uniting Yarrow community school students with adults from Chilliwack Society for Community Living. They’ve been busy all week fabricating inspired decorations for the Sunshine Community Garden. “We are making art from junk,” says Yarrow student Nik Thiessen. They are turning old water barrels into lovely rain barrels for the garden, some bug planters are emerging from recycled garbage cans, and wooden butterflies will be brightening up the garden’s chain link fence. They might even make windsocks from fabric and old lamp shades, or wind chimes from kitchen wares. The collaborative project running this week at the school involves repurposing a range of recyclables into artistic pieces for
the community garden located behind the Mathieson Centre in Sardis. The program they’re calling ‘Community Builders’ is about producing the embellished, green items on a practical level, but it’s also about forging relationships and building community. “There will be several art stations set up at the school,” said Dayle Thiessen of CSCL. About 10 kids will be rotating through the stations, with about half a dozen developmentally challenged adults, who receive support from CSCL programs. The program is underway mornings, in the courtyard behind Yarrow Community School, until July 19. On Friday afternoon, from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. they’re planning an event at the garden to set up the new pieces. jfeinberg@theprogress.com Twitter.com/chwkjourno

Kinder Morgan holds consultation for valley residents Alina Konevski The Progress

ions on the project. The company is holding an official public consultation for the Fraser Valley this Saturday in Abbotsford. The $5.4 billion Transmountain pipeline twinning project would require major construction through the heart of Chilliwack in the company’s effort to nearly triple
its capacity to carry oil from Alberta to the West Coast. Kinder Morgan gave Chilliwack residents the opportunity to post online comments expressing their concerns about the project from June 18 to July 9, but only a handful of people did so. An online commenta-

tor named JSMontcalmRd, whose house on Montcalm Road is 30 feet from the existing line, wondered what would happen if Kinder Morgan didn’t find an alternative route to tearing up people’s backyards in the effort to install a second line. Kinder Morgan’s external relations manager Lexa
Hobenshield replied that the company is investigating whether it could use B.C. Hydro’s right-of-way north of Montcalm, which would allow the new pipeline to be built farther from homes but nearer to power lines. A second option is to install the new line with “trenchless” drilling, such

as horizontal directional drilling, which involves boring a hole with steerable machines. This would disturb surface soil less, but would still be major construction on the land of some residential homes. Online opinions on the Continued: PIPELINE/ p8

River cleanup set for this weekend Although 250 volunteers spent a day cleaning up the Chilliwack/Vedder River in April, the shorelines are again full of rubbish after hundreds of people flocked to them during recent sunny weekends. The Chilliwack/Vedder River Cleanup Society is calling on all residents to come out this Saturday and do their part to keep the popular river system a pristine and welcoming place for families to play. A record number of volunteers collected 4,370 kg of garbage off the shores a few months ago. The group has had nearly 40 community cleanups along the river in the last decade, bringing together more than 5,000 volunteers to remove 79 tonnes of garbage. Volunteers meet this Saturday, July 20, at the Great Blue Heron Nature Reserve (5200 Sumas Prairie Road) to sign in between 8:30 a.m. and 9:30 a.m. Cleanup will finish at noon. The society will provide garbage bags, rubber gloves and pick-up tools. Donuts, muffins, coffee and juice will be available courtesy of Tim Hortons. CVRCS requests that volunteers bring appropriate clothing and footwear.

Chilliwack’s own Groundswell cohousing community at the Ecovillage, a trendsetting housing development in Yarrow, is more than doubling its capacity with last week’s start of the next phase of construction. The development has married the convenience and security of a tight-knit community with the privacy of independent home ownership. Residents live

Groundswell now has 65 residents, 30 of whom are children. Four-fifths of residents work on site, and include farmers, teachers, and social service employees. Construction just started on
separate lives in their own duplex homes, but often join together for aspects of daily living, including community meals, recreation, and child care. The existing 15 homes sit atop land that residents have termed the Ecovillage, which encompasses the Yarrow Deli shop, an organic vegetable garden and food stand, a playground, and an eco-conscious wastewater treatment centre. “The Ecovillage is designed to foster community and I think it

an additional 18 units, and is expected to complete within a year. A few units are still up for sale. These units will bring the final grand total to 33 family homes for the Groundswell cohousing community. In addition, Groundswell is planning a 17-unit seniors’ residence, to be built within the next few years. The suites will be fully independent, but a little removed from the hustle and bustle of the family homes to allow for a quieter life. Future plans also include installing a public town square, and relocating Yarrow Deli into a renovated version of the existing heritage barn. At Friday’s groundbreaking ceremony, city councillor Jason Lum recognized that residents have had to get through many steps in the building of the Ecovillage, and thanked the community for their patience. Mayor Sharon Gaetz echoed the sentiment in a release. “This project has generated great interest not only in City Hall but in the community at large. It is a new idea for Chilliwack and like most innovative projects, we were challenged with many unforeseen twists and turns,” said Gaetz. “I’m very pleased with how it is turning out. Our city staff has worked closely with the Ecovillage’s project team to resolve any issues and move things forward. I offer my hearty congratulations to the Ecovillage for its success and thank the members of the team for their hard work in bringing this project to fruition.”

Playing safely
Summer seems to be the season of senseless accidents. A jogger is hit by a train at a busy and well-marked crossing along White Rock’s waterfront. A child falls from a window left open to capture a cooling breeze. A swimmer dives into a shallow pool of water and never resurfaces. These kinds of tragedies seem to happen year after year. And they especially resonate because they often involve people doing activities we’re all pursuing in the halcyon days of summer. Enjoying the outdoors. Being active. Getting away. Staying cool. But just because we’re slowing down to enjoy the season doesn’t mean we can let down our guard. Traffic may be diminished, but it’s still dangerous. The water at the swimming hole may be inviting and refreshing, but dangers lurk beneath the surface. Beers on the back deck or campsite are just as intoxicating as those consumed in the pub on a Friday night. Of course more people are out and about, enjoying the sunshine and warm temperatures, so the odds are more accidents are likely to occur. But the zeal to get out, to maximize our enjoyment of these months before the winter rains and chill settle in again sometimes lead to lapses in judgement. Seemingly inconsequential acts like leaving a window open, rolling a stop sign, not looking both ways before crossing a street, ignoring a prominently-placed warning notice can come with huge consequences. Sometimes even fatal ones. British Columbians love the outdoors. Partly because there’s so much of it at our doorstep and it’s so beautiful. Partly because we spend so much of the year seeking shelter from it when rain and snow fall from the sky. Just remember to be careful out there. ~Black Press

Empty seats for political theatre VICTORIA – Premier Christy Clark didn’t win a seat in time to join her 48 fellow B.C. Liberal MLAs in the legislature for the summer session she ordered up. By the time the byelection in Westside-Kelowna is certified by Elections B.C., Clark will be off to Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ont. to meet with her fellow premiers in what is now loftily called the Council of the Federation. These gatherings used to be called First Ministers’ Conferences, and there was a set ritual, largely designed for the consumption of network television. Provincial premiers ganged up on the prime minister to demand federal “funding” for every conceivable need, just as municipal leaders get together each year to present their demands to the B.C. government. Prime Minister Stephen Harper ended the show, declining to play

the role of villain in this bit of political summer stock theatre, and it’s unlikely that any future national leader would reverse this prudent decision. The result, at least among western premiers, has been a quieter, more pragmatic effort to work together, rather than clumsy Tom attempts to play a FLETCHER shell game with taxpayers’ pockets. The public got tired of this routine some time ago. I don’t need a poll to tell me this is one of the reasons for the decline in voter participation and engagement in issues. Today, politicians frequently remind themselves out loud that there is “only one taxpayer” supporting the squabbling lay-
ers of this over-governed country. And yet, the same mistake keeps being made over and over by opposition politicians, and dutifully reported by the news media. The notion that all problems can and should be solved by “more government funding” is now so engrained in our education system that it seems inescapable. One of the NDP’s big “gotcha” items last week was the failure of the B.C. government to buy the latest sonar technology to locate and recover the bodies of people who have drowned in one of our thousands of lakes and rivers. As with the health-care system, as soon as something is invented, some assume a right to it, regardless of cost. Another big opposition target was the province’s failure to buy up remote properties in the Kootenays that have been discov-
ered to be at high risk of further landslides such as the one that swept through a year ago. The question of limits for protecting people who choose to build homes in risky locations seldom comes up in our political-media theatre. The media’s key ingredients are sympathetic victims to fit their narrative that all corporations and governments are greedy, stingy, callous and incompetent in everything they do. What the opposition has dubbed “Christy Clark’s wheelchair tax” is another case in point. A Fraser Health Authority official patiently explained what was really going on here. An average $35 monthly rent for wheelchairs is charged at the majority of care facilities, which are contracted by the health authority. Operators charge as they see fit for maintenance, disinfection and

replacement of this equipment, for patients who don’t own their own chairs. In September, a $25 fee is to be extended to the few facilities still directly run by Fraser Health, which have aging equipment and no fees. In all facilities, the fee is waived for those who can’t afford it. It would be useful for our politicians to frankly discuss the trend towards contracted health services, and the role of user fees in forcing people to take more responsibility for maintaining their own health. But that is not what happens. The narrative of dumping frail, impoverished seniors from their wheelchairs has no relationship to reality, but it’s how post-modern political theatre is done.

had saying ‘U.S. Army’. He asked me if I had served in the military. I told him no, that I served in a different service. He asked me in what unit. I told him that I had served 34 years in the Mounties, which being so close to the border, he knew what that was. He then stuck out his hand and said, “thank you for your service to your community.” I again was shocked and did not know what to say, except “thank you.” This time I thought about what now happened twice to me, not in Canada, but in the U.S. You see I have never, ever had anyone say to me “thank you for your service to your community” in Canada. All anyone in Canada wants to say is how they were unfairly given a ticket or something along those lines. I do not know what stops Canadians from thanking people like me for their years of service to their communities. Most police officers have put their lives on the line for the people in their communities on more occasions then they want to remember.
This goes for all police services whether it is the RCMP, VPD, QPP, or members other emergency services and the military. The list of public servants that faithfully serve the people of their communities is longer than anyone can imagine. Something that is not overlooked in America. They appreciate the dedication of their military, and emergency service personnel. How often, though, do people in our communities, take a few seconds of their time to recognize their dedicated service? My answer: not enough. I do not expect to see positive responses to this letter, but I have gotten something off my chest — something that has been bothering me for some time. And I guess that is often why people send letters to newspapers. It just makes me feel better that I have told those who care, how good it is when someone tells us “thank you for your service to your community.”
communities thrive, both environmentally and economically. We believe that having a responsible, sustainable aquaculture industry like ours provides an alternative for consumers, taking pressure off wild stocks as the demand for fish continues to rise. We also want to applaud Walmart Canada for its commitment to supporting sustainable seafood from both farmed and capture fisheries and its commitment to ensuring the farmed salmon it carries follows best aquaculture practices, as established by third-party, independent auditors. While our member companies meet and often exceed the standards set out by our regulators, having thirdparty, independent verification ensures we, and our customers, can have added confidence in the product we sell.

Misinformation spread about farmed fish Re: Walmart sees renewed protest against farmed fish, The Progress, July 11. The protection of B.C.’s wild salmon stocks is extremely important to all British Columbians, especially those of us who live and work in coastal communities. Unfortunately, the Salmon Feedlot Boycott group continues to spread misinformation about our industry, backed up by out-of-date research. B.C. farmed salmon is neither full of toxins nor harmful to health. On the contrary, salmon, both farmed and wild, is an excellent source of Omega3 fatty acids, which are essential for heart health. Salmon is also a good source of lean protein and a nutritious, healthy addition to a person’s diet. Our farmers are committed to sustainability through following the most up-to-date science and guidelines in terms of fish feed, fish health and environmental monitoring. The conservation of wild fish stocks is extremely important to our member companies and our farmers, who live and work in coastal British Columbia and want to see their

Where’s the ‘thank you’ here? Recently two incidents have happened to me that motivated me to write this letter. I am a retired member of the RCMP having served 34 years in eight communities around British Columbia. While returning to Canada from Phoenix, Arizona, I was going through airport security. A TSA security agent asked me what “RCMP” stood for — I was wearing a T-shirt with this on it. I told him that it stood for the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. He said the “Mounties?” I said “yes,” and he asked me if I was one. I told him that I had retired. He then asked me how long I had served. I said 34 years. He then astonished me by sticking out his hand and thanking me for my years of service to my community. I was speechless and did not know what to say except “thank you.” Let me go further to explain the reason for my letter. This past July 4, I was in Bellingham shopping at Costco.

Echo Room Night Club owner Dan Brooks (centre) rocks out for the camera, with children and co-managers Chrissy Brooks and Dan Brooks Jr.. Echo Room is revamping its style by bringing in live music to attract a slightly older crowd earlier on weekends. JENNA HAUCK/ PROGRESS
Echo Room switches it up in downtown Chilliwack Jennifer Feinberg The Progress
The Echo Room Night Club is evolving in its fourth year with a little something they’re calling, Live Nights at the Echo Room. “It’s time to bring back the live cover bands and get them on stage a bit earlier so people can come out and dance on the weekends,” says Echo Room owner Dan Brooks. There’s an early void between 9 p.m. and 11:30 p.m. that they’re hoping to fill. “We’re saying to people, why not come out and enjoy a night
out like you used to,” says Brooks, addressing a slightly older demographic than they’ve attracted until now. “We’re going to try it and if get a good response, we’ll carry on. It’s all about entertaining people downtown,” he says. They’re working with an agency to bring in some of the best cover bands in B.C., but they’ll also be open to hearing from local original bands as well from Chilliwack. Here’s the schedule of live music for the next while. They’re kicking things off on July 26-27 with The Remedy, which plays covers and top 40 hits.
“The club is evolving. Bars need to change it up periodically we have to acknowledge that.” “The public wants to be entertained. The kids are always on cell phones texting, wondering where the crowds are at,” says Brooks. He figures it will be a great addition to the club’s attractions. Echo Room opened in 2009 at the Main Street location and have drawn in the 19-27 year-old market. “We’ve had a strong hip hop crowd but I don’t want us to be one dimensional.” They’re looking for something to bring in the 30s to 40s and 50s.

Like everything from Nickelback tunes to Lady Gaga. “With some Top 40 bands and DJs we’ll offer the best of both worlds. We’ll be playing the music that some of our clientele used to listen to and dance to.” In between sets, the DJs will spin tunes from the music of today. The music styles Echo will be booking for the stage, will range from country pop and reggae, to Top 40, to 80s/90s retro music. “That’s going to be the range. Now we’re going to try those genres.” They’re reaching out to the crowds they figure are out there,

who feel they’re too old for the club scene and the late night life. “Maybe some of the music hasn’t been that age friendly. We’re going to try something new,” he says. A couple of extra early live performances are on deck for this summer, meaning from 9 p.m. to 11:30 p.m. including: Tarl, The Special Ts and guest on Aug. 17, and then on Aug. 24, it’s Little India, Bridge to the City and guest.

The course throws together students coming to summer school for a variety of reasons. Some enroll because they failed a class during the year, and must pass summit in order to continue in their grade. Others failed a course, but would graduate to the next year regardless of their summer performance. Others still are enrolled as a preview to the next year, often because their parents want their child to be extra prepared. Half-way through the inaugural Grade 7 summit course at Vedder middle school, most students in Alicia Wernicke’s class seem to like the new format. This was especially true for the approximately 40 per cent of students that are in the summer program as a preview. As mom Amanda Goudreault said, “It’s great they’re getting a bit of everything.� Goudreault enrolled her son, a Grade 6 graduate, into the Grade 7 summit course as a preview to the upcoming year in order to help him transition from elementary to middle school. However, there was one common complaint among students sent to summer school to repeat a class. “I don’t really like how they changed it. I passed math, but failed humanities. Why do I have to take this?� said Sarah Gordon. Because of the variety of daily activities, Wernicke is seeing her students enjoying summer school more than before. Students are also well motivated to complete their selfdirected projects. Elementary students, meanwhile, still have specialized summer classes on math and reading, but getting into them may be tough. As summer enrollment for the youngest learners has skyrocketed in the last few years, classes fill up within two weeks of registration. Over half of the currently enrolled summer learning students are in elementary. Parents and school staff denied that the increase in elementary enrollment may be due
to parents looking at the program as a short-term day care. Instead, the focus is on giving young students a leg up in their early academic years. A total of 716 students,

BC SPCA offers all the love for half the price Busch, general manager of operations for the BC SPCA. “We always see an
influx of animals at our shelters during the summer season and this year is no exception. We hope this special promotion will be an incentive for people who have thought through their decision to adopt a cat and are just waiting for the right time.” Busch says people who adopt cats from the SPCA are getting exceptional value, even without a special promotion. “The BC SPCA’s average cost to care for a cat during its stay is $784, much higher than the actual adoption fee. Our costs include vaccinations, spaying or neutering, an identification tattoo or microchip, preventative treatment for internal and external parasites, any medical care or rehabilitation required, daily welfare monitoring, sheltering and feeding.” While the goal of the promotion is to find loving homes for as many adult cats as possible, all of the usual adoption criteria will apply. “We want to make sure that the animals are a right fit for their new home and that their needs will be met,” says Busch. This special adoption promotion will also include 50 per cent off rabbit adoption fees to help find homes for the 80 rabbits presently in BC SPCA care. Busch says the majority of these rabbits have each spent more than 100 days in shelters. For more details on the cat adoption promotion, visit your local SPCA branch or visit spca.bc.ca/halfpricelove. You can also follow #HalfPriceLove on Twitter to keep up with the event’s happenings.

Make Your Home Safe for Independent Living Are you a low-income senior or a person with a disability who wants to live safely and independently in the comfort of your home? Do you have difficulty performing day-to-day activities? Does your home need to be adapted to meet your changing needs? If so, you may be eligible for financial assistance under the Home Adaptations for Independence (HAFI) program. Find out today if you are eligible and if you meet all of the requirements as a low-income homeowner or as a landlord applying on behalf of an eligible tenant.
To apply or learn more, visit www.bchousing.org/HAFI You can also contact BC Housing: Phone: 604-646-7055 Toll-free: 1-800-407-7757 (ext. 7055)
HAFI adapts homes for B.C. seniors and people with disabilities
Brenda has always been an active woman. However, recent health issues including osteoarthritis in her left knee and losing kidney function have slowed her down. Her mobility is limited and she is now on dialysis three days a week. To adjust to her changed circumstances, Brenda sought help with her daily living activities. Part of that help came from the Home Adaptations for Independence (HAFI) program offered through BC Housing. Launched in January 2012, the HAFI program provides financial assistance to help eligible low-income seniors and people with disabilities adapt their homes so they can continue to live independently. Brenda applied for a new walk-in bathtub because she couldn’t safely get out of the tub on her own. Walk-in tubs include additional safety measures such as anti-slip floors, grab bars, and a very low step in. Home adaptations may also include handrails in halls or stairs, ramps for
H O U S I N G M AT T E R S
easier access, easy-to-reach work and storage areas in the kitchen, lever handles on doors or faucets, walk-in showers, and bathtub grab bars and seats. Brenda is a strong advocate for the program and has even shared HAFI brochures with nurses in the renal unit where she undergoes dialysis. If you or someone you know is having difficulty performing day-to-day activities safely and independently – the HAFI program may be able to help. Since the program began, more than 300 households completed renovations with HAFI financial assistance, making it possible for seniors and people with disabilities to continue to live in the safety and comfort of their home.

Don Quiring: ‘I know that God is on my side’ Don Quiring is an inspiration. Although this shy, quiet and humble man has been sick most of his life, his hope, peace and utter resilience is something to behold. God has always been the one thing that Don has counted on and he feels blessed to be comforted by a passage in the bible that
has helped him when all hope seems to have vanished. “We are afflicted in every way but not crushed, perplexed but not despairing, persecuted but not forsaken and struck down but not destroyed,” he recited, calmly. Don was born with cystic fibrosis, a disease where excess mucus
clogs the lungs but it wasn’t diagnosed until he was around three. “Most kids survived until they reached kindergarten but fortunately, I’m still here,” he smiled gently. As a youngster, Don recalls being sick most of the time. “I always seemed to have strep throat and stomach aches but for-

ture,” he said. After his contract with the Greenhouse Growers was over, he was awarded another research contract. This time, it was with the Saanich Research Station and for the next two years he tested new bacteria meant to control the whitefly, a common greenhouse pest. In 1981, he met the girl that he would eventually marry. “She was from Quebec and was doing her undergrad degree and was working in the lab at Laval University where my brother was doing his PhD. She was coming out west to learn to speak English and my brother suggested that I show her around. The first thing that we did was hike Elk Mountain and it just poured,” he laughed. Four years later, the couple married and they had one daughter. By 1987, the research station in Saanich was set to close and Don would be out of a job. “David Gillespie, who was a scientist there, got a job at the Agassiz Research Station and I was able to make the move as well,” he said. Twenty-four years after they had met, his wife passed away from ovarian cancer and this was a very difficult time for both Don and his daughter. “The worst grief that anyone can experience is their own and this was certainly one of the low points in my life.” Then, about four years after his
wife’s death, Don was diagnosed with cervical dystonia, a disease that causes involuntary contraction of the neck muscles and causes abnormal movements. This results in considerable pain and discomfort. The onset of the dystonia, coupled with the fact that his cystic fibrosis was getting worse, forced him to step down from a career that he thoroughly enjoyed. “My lung function was down to about 30% and given that my health was compromised, I had to leave. I ended up retiring a couple of years later,” he said. Although for some reason Don is still able to ride his bike, the dystonia is debilitating and makes watching television, reading a book, being around large crowds or listening to someone speak for long periods, literally impossible. “I’m on a waiting list for deep brain stimulation surgery that may alleviate my symptoms but who knows if I will qualify,” he mentioned. Despite his many challenges, Don admits that has never felt sorry for himself. “I have learned to live with what I have and I can find people that are a lot worse off than I am. Regardless of what I go through, I still feel blessed and I know that God is on my side. The members of the Broadway Mennonite Church have become my family. They are my best friends,” he smiled.

they’ll keep your yard cleaner by collecting on their leaves the dust particles which would blow into your home. They help in a small way to rebuild the ozone layer around our earth. They provide homes for birds, which in turn minimize your insect populations, and they act as a sound barrier to absorb a good deal of the noise from local traffic. Shade trees also provide a great source of entertainment for kids, whether it be branches for swings, homes for tree houses, or just plain climbing. Finally, they provide a nice retreat on a sweltering afternoon. Now, if you’re still not convinced about huge shade trees, consider a slow-growing species or some of the new compact, columnar varieties. If it’s leaves you’re worried about, ‘Green Pillar’ oaks keep theirs all fall and winter. If insects are concerning you, gingkos, liquidambars and liriodendron are all free of pests. Many
shade trees have very fibrous root systems which are quite safe in even tiny lots. When you weigh the pros and cons, I think it’s fairly evident that shade trees are a welcome addition, not only to our homes, but also to the environment.

If you haven’t been sitting under a shade tree during our simply sensational summer weather, it’s probably because you don’t have one! As a matter of fact, if you take a good look around at our newer homes, many on smaller lots, shade trees tend to be one of the rarest species of trees in the landscape. Considering the many attributes of these tall, stately trees, we’re really missing a welcome addition to our homes. The most common misconception about shade trees is that they grow 100 feet overnight, drop tons of leaves to be raked up each year, and have root systems which demolish septic tanks and fields. Added to these alleged problems are concerns about insects, disease and pruning. If these are the reasons that folks are not planting shade trees, it is unfortunate, because for the most part they are unfounded fears. Shade trees can also be planted for reasons other than shade. When I select a tree for a landscape, I always look for two or three ways in which it can enhance the overall landscaping

McLellan following in Tiger’s footsteps Training T i i on a budget b d Eric J. Welsh, The Progress
Chilliwack native Connor McLellan is enjoying the experience of a lifetime this week, experiencing the Southern California life as he plays in a prestigious junior golf tournament. The 17-year-old is teeing off at the Callaway World Junior Golf Championships, taking on one of North America’s most famous courses. The tourney is being played at Torrey Pines in La Holla, CA, annual site of the PGA Tour Farmers Insurance Open. It’s also the course where Tiger Woods, severely hobbled by a bad knee, famously beat Rocco Mediate in a sudden-death playoff at the 2008 US Open.
“That’s the one where Tiger won on one leg,” McLellan said. “It’s going to be cool being on that course that I’ve watched on TV and knowing all the people who’ve played and won there. Playing some of the holes Tiger birdied is going to be pretty cool.” McLellan is in select company at this tournament. He played in a springbreak qualifier in Squamish, one of six or seven that the Canadian Junior Golf Association held across the country. He shot rounds of 69 and 71 on the par-72 layout at Squamish Valley Golf and Country Club, finishing three shots off the lead. “I was beating the other kid with seven or eight holes to play, and I was right in there until
the last holes.” McLellan recalled. “I didn’t blow up. He just out-played me in the last stretch. That kid is going to the University of Washington next year, so he’s pretty good.” McLellan’s score was good enough to put him near the top of the heap in the 15-17 year old boys division. Out of 100+ golfers who played in those CJGA qualifiers, he was in the top six. “I’m pretty proud of myself,” he said. “This is going to be the biggest tournament I’ve ever played in.” McLellan will get onto Torrey Pines for two or three practice rounds before teeing off for real. “I’m looking forward to the 18th hole, a par-five over water that has been disastrous for some PGA guys in terms of holding
leads and losing,” he said. “At one tournament, someone made nine (four over par) to lose by one stroke. The other hole I’m looking forward to is the third, which is a tough par three over the ocean.” McLellan has two goals heading into the tournament, which has been won in years past by Woods, Phil Mickelson, Corey Pavin and Craig Stadler. There is a cut after three days that pares the field from 140 to 60. He’ll look to survive that cut, then focus on a top-10 finish. “The last couple years I’ve had big goals and dreams, and I’m starting to accomplish some of the goals,” McLellan said. “I think if I play well here, it will be a stepping stone for my confidence for the rest of the season and playing in other big tournaments.”
PCSL men qualify for Challenge Cup Chilliwack’s Pacific Coast Soccer League men head into playoffs with a ton of momentum. Undefeated in eight, the local lads haven’t lost since late May. Chilliwack hosted Penticton’s Pinnacles on Saturday, battling the visitors to a 1-1 draw. Kyle Rawlek had the lone goal for the locals, getting
his head on a Connor MacMillan cornerkick. Seventeen-year-old Chilliwack keeper Jon Vugteveen continued his stellar play, making several solid stops to preserve the draw. Sunday’s game pitted Chilliwack against a sad-sack Kelowna United squad (0-13-0) still looking for its first point of
the season. Trailing 1-0 at halftime, Chilliwack took over in the final 45. Striker Jordie Leib drove by a couple Kelowna defenders to get Chilliwack on the board. Minutes later, Jason Staiger gave his team the lead, tipping a Leib cross past the Kelowna keeper. Midfielders Nick Haywood and Dawson
Lindahl added insurance markers in a 4-1 win. Since losing 1-0 to Victoria United May 26, they’ve gone 5-0-2 to finish the regular season slate at 6-3-5. The top four make playoffs, and Chilliwack will compete in the Challenge Cup, taking place July 27-28 at Coquitlam’s Town Centre Stadium.
Attack blank Vernon in provincial bronze-medal match Chilliwack FC’s U-13 Attack ended their season successfully, winning bronze at the Provincial B Cup tournament that was held July 4-7 in North Vancouver. The girls qualified for this tournament in their first year in the BC Coastal
Girls Soccer League, and quickly showed they belonged with decisive wins over the Kootenay Rovers (5-0) and Quesnel Strikers (8-1). A 3-1 loss to the Marpole Phoenix knocked them out of championship contention, but they stayed in
the mix for bronze. A Sunday matchup pitted them against Vernon United. Aly LeBlanc scored the game’s only goal and Olivia Nicol was unbeatable in net as Chilliwack won 1-0. Chilliwack scored more
goals, 15, than any other team in the tournament. With only two girls graduating and three promising recruits on the horizon, the Attack believe they can turn bronze into gold next season. The team resumes training in August.
To practice proper aim and alignment, use two sticks to create parallel lines to your target, writes Jennifer Greggain Every golf instructor has an arsenal of training aids always at their disposal. There T here are a number of golf gadgets on the market that are ‘guaranteed’ to improve yyour our game. Here are a few training aids that I use most on the lesson tee that won’t blow your budget. The first is a set of alignment sticks. Instructors will always check their students’ set up positions, including aim and alignment. If a student is not aligned properly, swing compensations often show up. To practice proper aim and alignment, use two sticks to create parallel lines to your target. Your feet and body should also be parallel to your target line. The next item I always have on my lesson tee is a pool noodle on a stick. You can make one yourself with a pool noodle from the dollar store and an old broken golf shaft or wooden dowel. This training aid can be used in a number of ways, giving golfers feedback to correct some of the most common swing issues. By placing it in the ground by your trail foot, you can help establish good stability and rotation in the backswing, and eliminating the dreaded ‘sway’ motion. You can also place it in the ground at an angle similar to the swing plane that forces the golfer to maintain the proper swing plane, avoiding the dreaded over-the-top ‘slice.’ Next, I always have a metal yyardstick ardstick on hand. I love this device for putting practice.
Place it on the green a few w feet away from the hole on a straight putt. Place the ball directly on the yardstick, and try to roll the putt off the end of the stick into the hole. By maintaining this feel off rolling the putt off the end off the stick, you are working on the technique of your putting stroke by keeping the face of your club square to yourr target line through the entire stroke. This drill is also greatt for practicing aim and alignment. Finally, I use a simple golff tee as a training aide for chipping. I will place one tee in the ground and encourage my students to strike it with their club. This teaches them to strike the ball in a downward motion, pinching the ground rather than scooping the ball up with the wrists. I then place a second tee in the end of the grip to help teach students how to maintain their wrist angle for a chip-and-run shot. I ask them to keep the tee pointed up their lead forearm, and to double check that it is still pointed there in the finish position. So the next time you work k on your game, don’t feel like you need to spend a lot off money on the latest golf gadget you see on TV. Greggain played profession-ally for 10 years, including two on the LPGA. She was named d the 2010 CN Canadian Women’s Tour Low Teachingg Pro of the Year, and is the lead d instructor of the Sardis Golff Academy.

Mayhem make mark at fastpitch provincials 7/13h LH18
The Chilliwack Mayhem finished fifth at the U-12 squirt fastpitch provincials, held last weekend in Maple Ridge. The Mayhem, a rep A level team, lost 6-5 to the Victoria Devils in a hard-fought quarter-final. Chilliwack went 2-2 in round-robin play and bounced the Ridge Meadows Pride 4-2 in their playoff opener. In a game that went to extra
The Mayhem had a remarkable season, winning one gold and two silver at five tournament appearances. Batting average and RBI leaders were Wiens (.493 and 49), Kennedy Galley (.465 and 32) and Mattisen Henrotte (.396 and 37). Shortstop Veronica Sawatzky led the team in stolen bases with 34. Galley swiped 28 and Gracyn Anderson had 20.
innings, pitcher Kyra Wiens struck out 11 Ridge Meadows batters, allowing no walks over six innings. Hank Soltys hit a basesloaded triple to drive in the winning runs. In the quarter-final against Victoria, Chilliwack battled back from a 4-1 deficit and led 5-4 after a Kara Wismer line drive. But Victoria came back to win in extra innings.
Galley led the team in extra bases hit with 14, including two home runs. Soltys and Deanna Tuchscherer both had nine. Champ Thiessen had one of the lowest strikeout percentages at 15.8. The Mayhem move up to peewee A next season and will be holding try outs in September. Get more info online at chilliwackminorfastpitch.com
Chilliwack’s Spartan Swim Club sent seven swimmers to the BC AAA Championships, held July 4-7 on the University of British Columbia campus.

Margaret Rose Esau Mrs. Margaret Rose Esau (nee Ewert and Marg Stobbe) of Chilliwack, formerly of Abbotsford, BC, died after a short battle with cancer, July 14, 2013, age 73. Born July 30, 1939, in Sardis, BC, to Peter J. Ewert and Anna Heinrichs, she grew up on South Sumas Road on a dairy and chicken farm. After she moved to Vancouver at age 17, Margaret worked in the credit department at the Eaton’s store. There, she met and married first husband Herbert Stobbe, October 4, 1958. The couple settled in Matsqui then Abbotsford. Her career in finance did not continue as she raised four sons: Brian, Gregory, Douglas and Barry (Buzz). Brian died in his third year; Greg lives in Clovis, CA, with wife Geena (Bruno) and daughters Brianna Phillips (married to Stanley Phillips) of Clovis, Brittany, & Brooke; Doug in Houston, TX, with wife Julie (Greer) and children Connor & Katherine; Buzz in Abbotsford, B.C. with wife Trish (DiGiacinto) and children Alanna & Colby. After her divorce from Herb in 1998, Margaret wed Harold Esau of Swalwell, AB, on July 23, 2005. The two settled and resided together in Chilliwack, B.C. Harold and Margaret lived in the Promontory Lake Estates in Sardis (Chilliwack). She loved her flower garden and potted plants, especially dahlias. She especially loved the holiday seasons. Christmas was her favourite and her home decorations showed her passion. She loved to read and cook. Her Bible was her foundation for living and Handel’s Messiah, both in concert and CD, was her music of choice. Margaret loved the outdoors her entire life. She enjoyed touring, cruising, cross-country skiing, hiking, cycling, RVing and camping. In recent years, she served in the culinary art program at Abbotsford’s Salvation Army church and spent years selling Avon and attending the theatre. Margaret is preceded in death by her father Peter J. Ewert (1983) and mother Anna Heinrichs (1959), sister Mary Fedrau (1981) and her son Bryan (born June 24, 1960, died Dec. 19, 1962). Margaret is survived by her three sons and daughter-in-laws, seven grandchildren, her husband Harold, and his four children, 10 grandchildren, one great grandchild and her ex-husband, Herb Stobbe. Funeral services will be held on July 24, 2013, at the Salvation Army Cascade Community Church (35190 Delair Road, Abbotsford) with Margaret’s pastor, Major Peter Roed officiating, starting at 2 p.m. In lieu of flowers, please make a donation to the Mennonite Central Committee, 31414 Marshall Road, Abbotsford, B.C. 604.850.6639.

Passed away at Eagle Ridge Hospital in Port Moody on July 7, 2013 at age 91. Predeceased by husband Roland Theodore; brother William Bruce Richardson and sister Alice Annie Mould. Survived by loving daughter Barbara June; twin sister Lois Irene Richardson; sister-in-law Mary Florence Richardson; many nieces and nephews and great nieces and nephews.

Fully engaged in life up to and including her 5 years with cancer, Victoria (Vicki) Elizabeth Keller late of Abbotsford BC, on her terms at the age of 52, sought peace with the Lord on July 12, 2013. She was the high school sweetheart and loving wife of 29 years to Lance, dedicated mother to twins Stephanie and Nicole, sister to Mark Ranger, David Ranger and Sheri Doerksen, daughter to Virginia Close, predeceased by her father Albert Ranger and survived by her beloved nieces and nephews. We wish to thank her Oncologist Dr. R. Winston, the staff at the Tertiary Palliative Care Unit in Abbotsford, and Christine Morrison Hospice in Mission. Although Vicki loved the sun and digging her toes in the sand, she would don her bright yellow boots and splash through the puddles with equal abandon; such was her life and our lesson. A celebration of Vicki’s life will be held on Sunday, July 21, 2013 at 2:00, at 29516 Galahad Crescent, Abbotsford BC Online condolences to the family may be made at: www.woodlawnfh-abbotsford.com
