CUPE pay increase identified last year
■ H ENDERSON F IRE
But money not allocated Katie Bartel The Progress Chilliwack school district had anticipated the expense of a CUPE salary increase being put in their hands, but did not allocate funds for it in the 201314 budget. In the budget report, presented to the board of education on April 9, a 1.5 per cent salary increase for support staff was noted under “potential budget challenges” for the coming year; a cost the district estimated at $600,000. But no money was set aside. School district secretary treasurer Gerry Slykhuis said that while senior management had suspected the provincial government would offload the expense to school districts there was no guarantee. “We had a feeling… but it’s government and bargaining, it could go any direction,” said Slykhuis. “When you’re putting a budget together for trustees, you try to lay out all the contingencies so they’re aware. Your budget is your best guess at that time.” And while the now new expense, estimated at $700,000 for this year, is a kick to the district’s bottom line, Slykhuis doesn’t believe the district should have allocated funds for it back in April. “In an ideal world we’d have a rainy day reserve, but by the same token we only get so much money from the government to spend on education and if we put a couple million dollars into rainy day funds, then that money is not being spent on immediate needs,” he said. The district is working on an amended budget that will now include the $700,000 CUPE salary increase, the $50,000 byelection, and the $600,000 for early French immersion in the expenses column.
Firefighters responded to a house fire on Henderson Avenue shortly after 12 a.m. Wednesday. When crews arrived on scene, the bungalow was fully engulfed in flames. A neighbour who called 9-1-1 said he could hear popping sounds from the house next door. It is believed no one was home at the time of the fire. JENNA HAUCK/ PROGRESS
OCP review heads into drafting stage Jennifer Feinberg The Progress There is still time. Chilliwack residents are being urged to weigh in with their opinion about the way the city should grow in the coming years. So far folks are talking about topics from urban densification to what Rosedale and Ryder Lake will look like in the next 20 or 30 years. Review of the Official Community Plan (OCP) has

been ongoing for months, and the upcoming drafting of the new OCP document represents Phase 3 of the review process. People have showed up to community cafés, commented on the website PlaceSpeak, and added their two cents to online surveys. There are public engagement process reports filed, and backgrounder reports ready, and two studies are nearing completion, one on environmental geotech maps and the other on economic development/employment.
The OCP discussion page on PlaceSpeak had received 2,641 unique views by press time. There were 80 comments and 70 participants signed up. PlaceSpeak seems to be the place most people are parking their remarks. About 300 took another online survey. But still more feedback is needed. Some may be hesitating with PlaceSpeak because of “potential concerns around privacy,” said Karen Stanton, manager of long range planning, at the
council meeting Tuesday. “There’s a link on our site that takes you right to the page,” she said. Coun. Jason Lum thanked the planning staff for the review process. “This is a huge task to undertake.” But he suggested finding a way to work around the privacy fears to get more people responding to the question of how Chilliwack should grow.

Hemlock Resort growth plans to be presented Jessica Peters Black Press The Berezan Group’s plan to expand Hemlock Resort into an allseason resort is still in the works, and a public information session is being held next month for anyone interested in the developments. The information meeting will be held on Tuesday, Oct. 1 from 9 a.m. to noon at the Sts’ailes Lhawathet Lalem (Chehalis Healing House) at 16300 Morris Valley Road, Harrison Mills. There will be representatives from the Ministry of Forests, Land
and Natural Resource Operations, along with those from Berezan Group, owners of the resort. They will be explaining the latest proposed plans for Hemlock, along with commitments Berezan Group has agreed to, resulting from feedback received during the master plan review process. Hemlock, a popular destination 65 kilometres from Chilliwack, is currently a small, three lift ski resort. But if the plan for expansion is successful, it could eventually cap several mountain tops and include ‘people moving’ trams between day areas, lodging and ski hills.
Some of the previous suggestions to grow the resort include a new resort community on the western shore of Harrison Lake, a marina, beach, golf course, hotels, restaurants and more. The land is part of the traditional Sts’ailes territory, and its First Nations name is Quqwathem. The Berezan Group, owned by Ralph Berezan, bought the resort for $3 million from the B.C. government when it went bankrupt in 2006.

Tour offers emotional ride to help kids Eric Welsh The Progress Lorelei Jefferey did her first Cops for Cancer Tour de Valley last year. It was everything she expected, and a whole lot more. It was grueling, riding a bike hundreds of kilometres over nine days. It was both mentally exhilarating and exhausting, hearing stories of cancer battles won and lost. The experience affected the RCMP officer far more than she ever thought it would. When she was back home in Chilliwack with her three healthy children, Jefferey struggled to put it behind her. And yet, when the Canadian Cancer Society started filling out the roster for this year’s Tour de Valley, Jefferey was first in line. “You spend time on that emotional roller coaster, and I held my little people tighter when I got home,” she said. “You cry on your bike and carry Kleenex in your pocket and it’s one of the saddest things you can do. But it’s also one of the most rewarding things you can do.” Each year, the CCS puts out a call to RCMP officers, municipal police, border agents, sheriffs and correction officers, soliciting applications for the Tour de Valley. Twenty-two are selected, getting their bikes in April. The Tour is a primary fundraiser for Camp Goodtimes. Set among the trees at Loon Lake (Maple Ridge), Camp Goodtimes provides fun and free summer recreation for children and teens with cancer, plus their families. “They get to go and be kids, playing and swimming, basketball and campfires,” Jefferey said. Each individual rider commits to raising at least $5,000. At last check, the team as a whole had topped $100,000. On Wednesday night, the team sat down with cancer survi-

vors for one last ‘pep talk.’ The Tour started Thursday morning. “Before last year’s Tour, I was oblivious to the emotional impact because I’d never talked to parents and children who’d gone through the pain of battling cancer,” Jefferey said. “You hear those stories and can’t believe some people have had to endure that, and you just can’t help but have tears. But it gives us serious motivation, because going up the hill in Boston Bar might hurt the muscles but it doesn’t compare to chemotherapy.” The team’s journey takes them as far west as Tsawwassen and as far east as Boston Bar. They’re in Chilliwack bright and early Monday morning. Each day, they stop at local schools, talking to students about healthy choices and cancer prevention. “We sing songs and dance and make fools of ourselves. We all have horns on our bikes, and

we all have ‘player cards’ that we sign and give out to the kids,” Jefferey said. “We try to make it positive and fun, but we also tell them that the reason we’re there is because there are little people just like them who are suffering from cancer. They probably don’t completely get the seriousness of cancer. But at the same time, it makes them think.” On Chilliwack day, the team will visit Rosedale middle school (8:20 a.m.), Vedder elementary (9:35 a.m.), Unsworth elementary (10:05 a.m.) and Ecole La Verendyre (10:35 a.m.). Jefferey has three daughters at Unsworth. “Last year, I didn’t realize I was allowed to ask for specific schools,” she said. “I’m awfully excited about visiting their school. Nine days is a long time to be away from your own little people, so it’ll be really nice to see them.” They know how important this is to their mom because
she’s shared some of the stories. “My own father was diagnosed with prostate cancer, and he’s a success story,” she said. “He got his clean bill of health while I was riding last year.” Jefferey’s children know all about Grandpa. Their mom has also shared some cancer stories that haven’t ended well. “Hearing the stories of children fighting and getting sicker and not being able to go to school anymore, it’s heart-wrenching and it makes me feel very, very lucky that I have three healthy children,” Jefferey said. “They’re the saddest stories you could possibly hear from a family, but wherever we go, they make the effort to come out and see us. And that’s why we do it, because they really need to know we’re there supporting them.” Get more info at copsforcancerbc.ca/faf/home/default. asp?ievent=1052319
Growing up, Lorene Keitch didn’t believe in missions trips. She thought they were a waste of time. But after four years working on a book all about missions, she’s since changed that line. Keitch, a trained journalist, and her husband Justin Keitch, a photographer, spent a year and a half travelling through 10 different countries, and countless villages listening to the stories of people leading and volunteering for missions, as well as those who’ve benefitted from the act of missions. With 252 interviews and 26,796 photos, Pockets of Change became a reality. A book launch for the 171page, coffee table book, which was made in partnership with Hungry for Life International, is this Friday at the Philadelphia Romanian Pentecostal Church on Alexander Avenue starting at 7 p.m.. “What happens a lot of the time [when people do missions] is their stories are shared in their church, and with their family and friends, but it stops there,” said Keitch. Pockets of Change is extending that reach. Inside are tales of inspiring souls including Pastor Tomas, the “cowboy pastor,” who hikes through Mexico’s Copper Canyon to preach the word of God, one time even doing so at gunpoint; Peter and Lilian, the school teachers in Seje, Kenya who don’t get paid or supported for their teaching efforts, but do it because they believe in the powers of education; Piet and Pita Butendijk, founders of Noah’s Ark Children’s Home in Uganda.

Cultus Lake Park Board says Saidi no longer an employee
Question: I have been hearing a lot about Fraxel® treatments. What is Fraxel® and how can I benefit from it?
Jennifer Feinberg The Progress
Ashley, Abbotsford
The manager of financial services for Cultus Lake Park Board was placed on leave when the first allegations of fraud arose in August. Now the park board has issued an official statement this week saying Siamak Saidi is no longer employed by the park board. They refuse to say if he was fired, or if he resigned. In a notice of civil claim filed in B.C. Supreme Court in Vancouver,
Answer: With Fraxel® we can achieve: • smoother fresh looking skin with less pigmentation • improving texture and tone • reducing wrinkles around the eyes • Improving the appearance of acne scars and surgical scars.
Simon Fraser University alleged that Siamak Saidi, a CA, submitted false invoices to the institution for supplies ordered for companies for which he was listed as a director. The claim states SFU neither ordered nor received the supplies. An RCMP investigation led to Saidi being charged with fraud over $5,000, theft over $5,000, forgery and using a forged document earlier this summer. When the allegations were made public, the park board issued a statement saying nothing was amiss in the financial
records: “Staff of Cultus Lake Park have completed a thorough review of all accounts and investments. No unauthorized financial transactions have been observed,” according to the website notice. No other details were released this week by park board officials, not whether Saidi resigned from his position, nor if he was fired, or any other particulars such as why he is no longer an employee. jfeinberg@theprogress.com twitter.com/chwkjourno --with files from Vikki Hopes, Abbotsford News

Communities want permits to kill geese
FREE
Thanksgiving Turkey!*
Tom Fletcher Black Press B.C. communities are again seeking federal and provincial help to keep Canada goose population under control by killing geese that are fouling beaches and parks. Delegates at last week’s Union of B.C. Municipalities convention endorsed a resolution from Osoyoos, to address a problem that plagues many B.C. communities. Thompson Nicola Regional District director Tim Pennell told the convention that beaches around area lakes are being “destroyed� by geese, and their droppings are triggering beach contamination warnings that affect tourism and local residents’ recreation. The Osoyoos resolution notes that addling goose eggs has had limited effect, and hunting regulations prevent culling in recreation areas. It asks for the Canadian Wildlife Service to issue more kill permits. Failing that, they want the province to issue permits. In 2011 the UBCM asked senior governments for help controlling geese in parks, and the B.C. government said kill permits are federal jurisdiction. Geese and their droppings are a chronic problem in other areas. A local resident wrote to the Abbotsford News in July, complaining that “there is so much goose poop on the paved trails that it’s like navigating through a minefield.� On Vancouver Island, golf courses hire dog handlers to chase geese off fairways, sometimes shifting the problem to the next golf course. Farmers also struggle to protect crops from geese and deer, which have proliferated as hunting has declined. Kelowna Mayor Walter Gray raised a related concern at the UBCM convention. B.C. is considering changes to testing procedures for recreational waters, based on Health Canada guidelines that recommend beach water advisories based on a single sample of 400 E.coli per 100 ml. Gray said depending on a single sample could trigger significantly more beach water advisories, often based on a transitory visit by geese, without significant increase in risk to human health.

Walmart is being urged to adopt more stringent standards for seafood by the Chilliwack chapter of the National OpenNet Salmon Feedlot Boycott. It will be the third protest of 2013 at the Walmart in Chilliwack when the latest rally gets underway in the Eagle Landing parking lot on Oct. 1. Walmart officials told Chilliwack boycott reps they are seriously considering some changes to their seafood policy in light of new information. “Walmart is listening!” the rally organizers announced triumphantly in a press release. As a result, the protest originally set for Sept. 24 was postponed to Oct. 1. There’s more to
be done on this score since Walmart, Great Canadian Superstore and Costco, are still “lagging behind” without sustainable seafood standards, by continuing to sell open-net, farmed Atlantic salmon, said boycott organizer Eddie Gardner. A recent email from a Walmart official in charge of corporate social responsibility, John Lawrence, came with a request to postpone the Sept. 24 protest, and made it clear they’re re-evaluating their own policies in light of recent information about SeaChoice standards provided by the national boycott members, Gardner said. “While encouraged by this news, Farmed Salmon Boycott is proceeding with the planned boycott event in order to urge Walmart to expedite their adoption of the

standards already in practice at Overwaitea and Safeway stores.” Boycott members say they are concerned about potential health risks of consuming open-net farmed Atlantic Salmon and favour the standards laid out by SeaChoice.org with its product rating guidelines. These ratings include a red-listed “avoid” rating for opennet pen farmed salmon and are endorsed by the Farmed Salmon Boycott. Boycott advocates are convinced there’s a link between open-net Atlantic salmon farming in the ocean and the decline in the wild, Fraser River salmon stocks. Wild salmon represents a huge part of the B.C.’s economy, as well as a crucial part of the ocean and watershed ecosystems. In 2010 Overwaitea Food Group, which includes PriceSmart, Save-On, Coopers, and Over waitea Foods, adopted the SeaChoice Guidelines, and in 2012 all stores in these supermarket chains completely removed the red-listed, open-net farmed salmon. Canada Safeway has just adopted these same standards this year, with the target of removing it from the shelves by 2015 or earlier. Boycott officials report that Canada Safeway is now working with a closed containment operator as a sustainable farmed alternative. Boycott members were thrilled when Safeway went with Continued: CHOICE/ p13

Extend council term
The Chilliwack

R AESIDE
A number of interesting motions and discussions arose from last week’s annual Union of BC Municipalities convention, including a proposal calling for extending terms of office for mayors and city councillors from three years to four Bring it on. Anyone who has regularly watched municipal politicians in action or has served on such a board knows the avalanche of information the newest members must absorb. On top of learning the history of past decisions and choices to create the proper context for making good decisions, rookies must try to memorize the process and learn how best to work within those confines to be the most effective. In our estimation, it takes between one and two years minimum for an elected official to reasonably understand how to do the job. Therefore, this only leaves about one year of a three-year that they’re sufficiently proficient to best represent the people who put them into office. Extending a term by another year will give residents better bang for their tax buck, reduce election costs and council turnover, and put municipalities in sync with provincial elections. The proposal passed with a 60% approval rate, with one rural delegate stating the idea came from “professional politicians” in the Lower Mainland, where pay is higher. While that may be true, it doesn’t change the fact that this is an idea whose time may have come and it should be pushed forwarded as soon as possible. And it’s not as though there isn’t precedent for this in Canada. If such a plan is enacted, B.C. would fall in step with every other province except for the Yukon, Northwest Territories and Nunavut. Overall, we would be better served by having longer terms, both in terms of effectiveness of politicians and money saved by having fewer elections. ~ Black Press

One regulator’s reading on smart meters VICTORIA – Despite efforts to keep the smart meter “controversy” alive by repeating imaginary health claims, the end is near. Energy Minister Bill Bennett has made what sounds like a final offer to holdouts. You want to keep your old mechanical meter, fill your boots. It’ll cost you an extra $35 a month, starting in December. If you insist on a “radio off” wireless meter, there will be a setup fee of $100 and a monthly fee of $20 to have someone collect the readings. These charges are to be reviewed by the B.C. Utilities Commission, the independent panel that smart meter opponents want to review BC Hydro’s whole smart grid project. As it happens, the BCUC recently did just that for an application by FortisBC to install wireless meters for its Okanagan and Kootenay customers. The meters were approved, and the findings
are instructive. The BCUC report notes that it received “many” complaints about smart meter signals being added to existing radio frequency (RF) sources. Some used familiar scare rhetoric about “toxic microwave radiation” that’s promoted by people trying to make Tom money by exploitFLETCHER ing fear. One of the experts retained by FortisBC was Dr. Yakov Shkolnikov, an electrical engineer with advanced degrees from Princeton and Cornell Universities. His testimony was not challenged by any of the lineup of opponents. A sample of his findings illustrates the absurdity of this whole discussion.
Shkolnikov calculated that a cell phone in use generates radio signals that reach 10 per cent of the international safety code limit. A microwave oven generates 2.3 per cent of the safe limit. A cordless phone: 1.25 per cent. A wi-fi signal: 0.0045 per cent. A bank of smart meters, not separated by a wall, registers 0.0019 per cent. The natural background RF level is 0.013 per cent. Note the decimal place. The level in the middle of a wilderness is more than 10 times that received from a bank of meters. BCUC staff added, for comparison, the radio signal level emitted by a human body. It’s 0.018 per cent. What this means is your spouse snoring beside you is a stronger source of RF than a whole wall of smart meters. Experts put up by opponents didn’t fare so well. One was Jerry Flynn, a retired Canadian Forces

officer from Kelowna who travels around taking readings, talking to elderly people about alleged hazards of meters, and making claims to the media about what he has called the single biggest threat to human health today. The BCUC found his military experience not “relevant,” and his evidence frequently “incorrect, exaggerated and/or unsubstantiated.” Then there was Curtis Bennett, who described himself as “chief science officer” for a company called Thermoguy. He spoke on behalf of West Kootenay Concerned Citizens. In a 2012 letter to the B.C. energy ministry, Bennett warned of the danger of smart meters triggering “molecular earthquakes.” The BCUC panel wrote: “While Mr. Bennett has an electrician’s knowledge of electrical systems, it is clear that he is unqualified to give expert opinion evidence on
the health effects of RF, exposure standards for RF, engineering, physics or geological phenomena such as earthquakes.” Citizens for Safe Technology put up one Dr. Donald Maisch, who claimed to have experience with this issue in Australia. The panel noted that Maisch runs EMFacts Consultancy, and agreed with FortisBC’s argument that “Dr. Maisch’s consulting livelihood depends upon public fears and concerns about RF exposure.” Would you like this circus of quackery to be restaged over BC Hydro’s program, at your expense?

Density in Promontory Heights should not surprise school trustees Re: “…over crowded Promontor y…” (Chilliwack Progress September 19) When residential development began on Promontor y Heights in 1994, we were told that the target population was 12,500. Infrastructure such as road, water reservoirs and sewers etc. were designed to accommodate this population. Also the original plans called for two schools, one for west and one for east Promontory to serve the newly emerging community. The first school was opened in 2000 in west Promontory. For some reason the school board did not secure the needed property in east Promontory when there was property available for the second school. Our PRA annu-
al build-out survey completed in May indicated that the current population is approaching 9,000. Our population growth rate was very rapid during the early years after the school was built but has leveled off to an average of four per cent for the past four years. These are the facts. Comments reported in The Progress on September 19 clearly indicated that current elected school trustees are unaware of these facts. Our current building rate is not excessive and has remained steady at an annual average which we believe is close to the rest of Chilliwack. The comment “they just keep building, building, building up there” is not accurate because all of Chilliwack is building.
Furthermore, the facts do not support the comment that Promontory is “overbuilt, overpopulated.” The solution to the school crowding problem rests solely with the school board. It is indeed very unfortunate that comments made by the two elected school trustees in the article cast a shadow on the planning ability of our school board. We as Promontory residents like our community and have chosen to live here to enjoy the amenities such as the views, parks and trails. If the school board had planned ahead we would be a much better balanced community. Henry Wiens, Director, Promontory Association (PRA)

Smart meter ‘facts’ on the Internet Well BC Hydro is trying its bullying tactics again. At this point in time Hydro can not impose a charge for those of us who still have analogue meters, those who want the transmissions disabled on their existing smart meter or those who want the smart meter removed. BC Hydro has to put forth their case to the BC Utilities Commission and at this time have not done so. They also have to win their case before they would be able to bill these charges. In a letter package sent out by BC Hydro there is a form called the “Meter Choice Program Enrolment Form”. Do not fill this out and do not send it to Hydro as you will be agreeing to pay these charges when they show up on your bill. It is a new contract you would be signing. I encourage all to
go to the Citizens for Safe Technology site at this link and find out the truth behind what Hydro is really doing. A class action suit has been filed by Citizens for Safe Technology against BC Hydro. The following statement is from Citizens for Safe Technology and I quote “If you have a smart meter and don’t want it, if you have an analogue and want to keep it, if you don’t want to be charged an extortion fee to keep the meter of your choice, you are eligible to participate in the Smart Meter Class Action Lawsuit. This lawsuit filed against BC Hydro aims to protect the democratic right of each and every person to opt out of the smar t meter/smar t grid program without any additional fees or charges. In fact, as BC
Hydro is including the cost of the smart grid program in their billings, their attempts to charge a fee for people who refuse to participate amounts to double billing, and should be rectified by the issuance of a BC Hydro rebate cheque which returns to the resident the savings realized by refusing the smart meter.” All information including the forms to fill out to join the class action suit are included at the above web link. If you fall into the criteria join the class action suit. The more who join the stronger the voice we will have. For those of you who feel that smart meters do not cause any health or privacy problems I urge you to go to the following link and watch a new documentar y called Resonance - Beings of Frequency (citizens-
forsafetechnology.org/ Resonance--Beings-ofFrequency,2,3066 For all the information you will need to know go to the Citizens for Safe Technology site http://citizensforsafetechnology.org/ and just start reading. You will find so much information about how smart meters affect your health, how the smart grid can intrude upon your privacy and the fact that it can be hacked into and personal information stolen. If you want to find out more just google smart meter problems and you will find page upon page of information on how bad these things are. The information comes from around the world where these things have been installed. Kathy Read Agassiz, BC

Cyclists walk their bikes past the grand opening celebration of the Peach Creek Rotary Trail on Wednesday afternoon. The Rotary Club of Chilliwack handed over a cheque to the city for $21,000 that day — the final instalment in funding from Rotary for the project. The trail, which was once a small path, is now a wide accessible 1.7-km trail in the woods beside Peach Creek, at the south end of Lickman Road. Nine interpretive boards line the trail with educational information about various animals and plant species that can be spotted from the path. JENNA HAUCK/ PROGRESS

Aquaculture industry says it’s a matter of consumer choice CHOICE from page 6 SeaChoice, and say their work is making a difference. The problem is that open-net pen technology can alter the marine environment in the Pacific Ocean and threaten the well-being of both the farmed salmon and wild salmon migrating past the pens, he said. Rally organizers point to a study found here, comparing farmed and wild salmon, which indicates wild is better: http:// www.albany.edu/ihe/ salmonstudy/summary.html. But aquaculture
industry reps said they do not agree on this score, and have been trying to counter the boycott reps’ statements. Farmed salmon is still a good choice because of its high levels of omega-3 oils and low levels of mercury, stated Elizabeth Young, of the BC Salmon Farmers Association, an industry group that represents most salmon farming companies in B.C. “Farmed salmon also provides a choice for consumers who many concerned about the risk of overfishing wild stocks,” she told
the Progress. It’s a matter of perspective for consumers. “It is disappointing
to see that the protestors have chosen to ignore the many studies done since then which show that all

VICTORIA – MLAs’ constituency assistants from across B.C. crowded into the idle B.C. legislative chamber Wednesday to get up to speed on new financial repor ting requirements for their office expenses. Provincial politicians have been working to open up their expense repor ting since a 2012 report by former Auditor General John Doyle exposed “pervasive deficiencies” in that and other areas of the legislature’s $70 million operating budget. The first steps after that report were to begin disclosing MLA expense totals on a quarterly basis, and to begin holding meetings of the long-secret Legislative Assembly M a n a g e m e n t Committee in public. That committee met Tuesday and agreed to extend the deadline to begin detailed expense disclosure from constituency offices from Jan. 1 to April 1. In addition to base pay of more than $101,000 a year and an expense account for travel and accommodation, MLAs receive a constituency allowance of $119,000 a year, mainly for staff and office space. Juan de Fuca MLA John Horgan told the committee he is “absolutely in favour” of disclosing detailed information, but more time is needed, especially with 32 new MLAs elected in May. That means new constituency staff learning accounting procedures on the job, while also learning to handle day-to-day concerns of constituents, many of whom are “in distress,” he said. The committee suppor ted Horgan’s motion to make the first detailed report public April 1, covering the period from Jan. 1 to the end of the provincial fiscal year. MLAs are also

preparing to begin detailed disclosure of their personal travel and other expenses. Expense payments to MLAs include a “capital city allowance,” for which most MLAs who live outside Greater Victoria claim $1,000 a month without receipts. With

The City of Chilliwack is proposing to upgrade Prest Road between Bailey Road and Chilliwack Central Road, to increase capacity and safety for vehicles, pedestrians & cyclists. A preliminary engineering design has recently been completed showing upgrades in a phased approach up to the year 2051. This includes intersection improvements and road widening to provide wider travel lanes and bicycle lanes in phase 1 & 2 with ultimately a 4-lane road in Phase 3 & 4 (2030 and beyond). The preliminary design analyzed conventional signalized intersections against modern roundabouts at the intersections of Bailey Rd, McGuire Rd, Prairie Central Rd, Hwy #1 Interchange and Chilliwack Central Rd. The analysis considered all factors such as safety, efficiency and cost, and concluded that modern roundabouts provide the optimum design solution.

Narcissus offer the promise of spring, in almost any variety I’ve always been rather fond of narcissus. I’ll never forget the afternoon I spent in Holland at a breeder’s field that was blooming with over
1500 narcissus varieties. It was an unbelievable opportunity to observe some old friends and to meet some new ones. It was also a chance to
see how each variety handled cool, rainy and windy weather. With very little time, I was almost running through the field, notating vari-
eties with outstanding color, vigor and form, then comparing them to the old standbys I’ve known for so many years. Trying to meet
and remember so many new faces in a few short hours is a very frustrating experience, but I did learn quite a few valuable lessons.
Although narcissus will grow almost anywhere in the Northern Hemisphere, they prefer cooler rooting conditions and love a sandy, well-
9/13h CV5
drained soil. One of the first things I did in the field was dig down into the soil to feel its texture. It was reclaimed sea land which had become a well-drained sandy loam. The narcissus roots were long, vigorous and extremely healthy. It’s under these conditions that they naturalize and multiply so well. There was no question that the very large flowered varieties (and Brian some MINTER of them were absolutely gigantic) were very showy, but the wind and rain had taken their toll on them. Not only were they shorter lived, but also many of the huge flowered varieties, and even many of the double ones, were laying over. The mid-sized double and single varieties stood up very well and created perhaps the most colourful effect, but as I expected the smaller sized varieties were the most prolific and outlasted everything else. It occurred to me that within the eleven generally recognized families or divisions of narcissus, there are three basic types that gardeners should use in three different locations. The narcissus varieties bred for their extra large or unusual blossoms make wonderful additions to our gardens but they should be used as just that – as novelties. Varieties like ‘Modern Art’, the large, double orange and scarlet; ‘Tahiti’, the orange centered yellow; and ‘Ice King’, the double white and soft yellow are real garden beauties, but they need a location where they have some protection from wind and rain. Plant them beside a windbreak or if possible, under an evergreen or other garden feature, like a birdbath, where they will find shelter. The very large flowered ‘trumpet’ varieties, like ‘Golden Harvest’ and ‘Gigantic Star’, make real conversation pieces as cut flowers and quite an impression in the garden where they require the same type of shelter. There are a number of exquisite novelties, like these, that deserve a special location in your garden. Some are more Continued: MINTER/ p23

damaging UV rays. Lip balm – because we tend to chew, lick, and expose them to the sun, our lips often need a bit of TLC. A moisturizing enriched lip balm is just the thing. You could also opt for a glossy pale-colored lip balm to add a touch of glamour. Eye shadow and pencil – don’t let thoughts of Halloween drama influence you when choosing these products. Choose a color that accentuates your eyes instead. Mascara – choose a shade more discreet than the dramatic look of an intense black. After all, the idea is to accentuate your eyes, not transform yourself into a femme fatale.

Is your daughter desperate for her first makeup kit? All her friends have them, so why not her? Of course it’s for parents to decide when their daughters are ready to take their first steps into this world of countless little pots, bottles, and jars, but here are a few tips for shopping. Are you ready for this? A good moisturizer – during the teenage years it is important to choose a quality product that is suitable for both age and skin type. There are products for normal, dry, oily, sensitive, and acne-prone skin. A skin corrector – this is used to mask small imperfections such as pimples (but not as a concealer for dark circles under the eyes). Tip: to camouflage patches of irritated skin, use concealers with a hint of green pigment. Blush – to avoid looking like a doll, use this product sparingly to give your skin a healthy glow. It is meant to call to mind the rosy cheeks of a beautiful winter day. Tanning powder – for those of you who want that “I’ve just come back from a Caribbean cruise” look all year round, you’re much better off using a tanning powder rather than subjecting your skin to

The back-to-school season will hasten the pace of morning routines for everyone, from busy moms to college students. Fitting your makeup regimen into a hectic schedule can make it challenging to achieve just the right look. Moms need a quick, easy look that holds up to daily demands with little maintenance. College women need versatility that will carry them from the classroom to the club. And first-time makeup wearers will experiment and explore to discover their own personal style. The pros at EcoTools maker of beauty tools using renewable, recycled and cruelty-free materials, offer some advice for creating three easy-tomanage looks for mothers, college students and new makeup wearers as back-to-school season gets underway. Mom’s flawless face As the days grow shorter, so does morning primping time. Getting the kids and yourself out the door on time doesn’t leave much room for a beauty routine. No one wants to pull up to the carpool line with under-eye bags and sallow skin, but painstaking makeup application just isn’t practical. Focus on the products that will provide the most impact in the shortest amount of time, including concealer, mascara and blush. EcoTools Fresh & Flawless Five Piece Complexion Set speeds up morning makeup application by putting every brush you need at your fingertips. First, apply a coat of your favorite foundation over your entire face. A tinted moisturizer or foundation with SPF can be great time-savers. Cover imperfections with concealer, and buff out the edges to seamlessly blend together. Apply translucent pow-

Minter talks narcissus MINTER from page 18 weather tolerant than others, but most will require a little more care and shelter. Also, as a rule of thumb, they do not bloom as prolifically nor do they naturalize as well as mainstream narcissus. The real frontline garden performers are the medium-sized and multiflowered narcissus varieties. There are dozens and dozens of varieties that, with a little care, multiply and bloom year after year and stand up well under wet and windy spring conditions. The ‘cyclamineus’ varieties, like ‘February Gold’ and my favourite, ‘Tete-a-Tete’,
are among the toughest and most weather tolerant. ‘Small cupped’ varieties, like ‘Barrett Browning’, are very prolific. The ‘poeticus’ variety of narcissus is one of the last to flower each spring, and ‘Actaea’ (Pheasant Eye), with its white petals and yellow, redrimmed cup, is the largest. A great innovation in the past few years has been a packaged collection of six varieties of yellow narcissus branded as ‘Yellow Brick Road”. This collection is blended to start blooming very early and continues to bloom very late for a continuous show of colour from six weeks to two months – a brilliant idea and remember - they are deer resistant!

Truthful actual experiences from real people:
For 40 years I had injections and drugs and finally Bell Shark Cartilage #1 spared me the endless torture I suffered day and night. Pat Laughlin, Coldwater, ON My hip is 95% pain free. Pain killing drugs mask and Bell Shark Cartilage heals. Rebecca Hite, Oroville, CA I tried another brand and pain came back. 2 weeks on Bell and pain is gone again. Gert Dupuis, Hanmer, ON For 32 years I cried barrels of tears. Was in and out of hospitals costing society tens of thousands of dollars. I have taken many thousands of pills that nearly killed me. Finally 3 bottles of Bell Shark Cartilage costing less than $100 stopped a lifetime of suffering without side effects. Eleanor Sauson, Shigawake, QC I suffered for years with sciatica. I tried everything and finally after taking a specially processed shark cartilage I was pain free in 2 weeks. After this experience I realised I could help many of those 5 million Canadian that suffer every day and night and I started to sell this same type of shark cartilage #1 and helped hundreds of thousands of men and women to have less pain or no pain at all. Nick A. Jerch, President of Bell Lifestyle Products. Many people on our website write: “Can walk again for hours”;”Can climb stairs without hanging on to railing”;”First time in 15 years can sleep at night”…hundreds of testimonials all with full names and towns. Shark bones/cartilage was a previously thrown away byproduct of the food industry. No sharks are caught for their cartilage. Don’t let any activist confuse you.

I really didn’t snore or gasp for air anymore. I sleep through the night and feel rested and refreshed in the morning. Mark Wilson, 40, Hudson, NH Sleep apnea capsules worked first night! For last 15 years I had sleep apnea and my doctor made me buy a CPAP machine, which I could not use. Finally Bell #23 helped the first night and every night thereafter. Like a miracle. Unbelievable. Karen Braun, 67, Glace Bay, NS For 20 years I was waking up frequently gasping for air. During the day I would start napping every time I would sit down, because I was tired. Since taking Bell #23 sleeping 6 hours is heaven. It made a substantial change in my life. Mary C. Myrick, 62, Jackson, MS It is such a joy not having to use the CPAP machine. I have had sleep apnea for 10 years. Using Bell#23, my wife says there is no more snoring or #23 stoppage of breathing. It is such a joy to be able to roll to left or right with no hose or mask to deal with. Thank you Bell for a great relief. I suggest anyone with these problems to try it. You will be overjoyed with the results. Wayne Burse, 63, Beamsville, ON.

After taking 1 capsule in the morning I’m completely free of all symptoms. Richard Gamez, 74, San Antonio, TX God bless you I went from doctor to doctor for years with #24 allergy sinus problems.

A Strong Start

for school next ye y d a e ar r get s t n Presch are oolers and their p Susan has been attending a Strong Start Early Learning Centre with her two boys for the past four years. She was introduced to StrongStart through her sister-in-law who had attended with her own children. They go for nature walks all year round and really enjoy the craft, reading and circle times. Susan could have paid to put her children in a preschool program, but she wouldn’t have interacted with her children nearly as much as she does. She had taken those skills she has learned and used them at home. She enjoys it so much that she became a volunteer at her StrongStart each week. Her boys have made many friends, and it has made the kindergarten transition process so much easier as they are already familiar with the school. Susan can’t say enough great things about StrongStart and encourages parents to check one out in their neighbourhood!

to Italy, and Personal Representative for Africa of PMs ChrĂŠtien, Martin, and Harper. In 2008, the Secretary General of the United Nations, Mr. Ban Ki-moon, appointed Fowler to be his Special Envoy to Niger, with the rank of UnderSecretary-General.

Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb on Dec. 14, 2008, sleeping and eating alongside their captors while hostages in the Sahara Desert until being released on April 21, 2009. Fowler said despite hardships suffered at the hands of the infamous terrorist organization, he does not find it difficult to talk about his experience as a prisoner of al Qaeda. In fact, he says, “It’s hard to stop talking about it.� Describing his presentation as “fairly animated with lots of visuals,� Fowler’s lecture will be peppered with maps, photographs, and videos. In addition to his kidnapping ordeal, he’ll also share insights from his lifelong relationship with Africa, going back to his first visit 50 years ago at the age of 19. In 2011, Fowler was made an Officer of the Order of Canada for his contributions as a public servant, diplomat, and representative of Canada. In the same year he published A Season in Hell: My 130 Days in the Sahara with al Qaeda, his biographical account of his kidnapping ordeal. Fowler says the man behind his capture, Mokhtar Belmokhtar, was later responsible for an attack on the
Robert Fowler
Algerian gas plant at In Amenas in January, which killed 38 hostages and in which 29 of his attackers died (including two Canadians), and for twin attacks on a French-owned mine and military base Niger in May. In addition to his President’s Lecture, Fowler will visit UFV classrooms, speaking to students about diplomacy and foreign affairs. Since his retirement, Fowler has served as a Senior Fellow at the University of Ottawa’s Graduate School of Public and International Affairs. Fowler’s free public lecture is scheduled for Wed, Oct. 2, at 4:30 p.m. in Room B101 at UFV’s Abbotsford campus, 33844 King Road. UFV’s Bookstore is bringing in sale copies of Fowler’s book.

They don’t call her a powerhouse for nothing. Chilliwack pop star Inez Jasper is thrilled to be hosting a CD release party Friday night at Echo Room for her latest album, Burn Me Down. The show at Echo is actually the first local late-night gig for adults Inez has performed in a while. “I’m so excited to do the show at Echo on Friday! It’s a perfect way to end the #storytellingthroughmusic tour. “It will be hype to perform for a hometown audience,” she tells The Progress. The release party will celebrate 10 sizzling tracks off the new CD, which moves her decidedly into dance territory, with guests Fawn Wood and Jon-C and traditional singing by Inez’s cousin, Big Phil. “The album is a reflection of how much work I’ve been putting into my career and the amazing support I have from my family, friends and fans. “Burn Me Down” takes the listener on a journey through song with uplifting beats and strong inspiring messages. “With this new music I’m working to crossover,” she confides. She may be a dance/pop star with a penchant for R&B and hiphop, but she also makes a point of sharing the First Nations culture she grew up with, and often incorporates traditional singing and drumming in her tunes. The Progress reported in April how Inez was incensed during the video shoot for the first single, Dancin’ on the Run, when a noise complaint from neighbours about the loud drumming brought police out to the Skowkale reserve. The lifeaffirming music video, directed by filmmaker Cowboy Smithx, is like an anthem to cultural survival. The video has Inez and friends on the run from the Indian Agent, an

Mighty Fine new CD by Lori Paul: A review Jennifer Feinberg The Progress Lori Paul and Spiderlodge have really done it this time. I just had a tremendous time listening to Mighty Fine Time, the Chilliwack trio’s latest recording. They’ve put together six tunes for the CD displaying a sleek musicality with chops galore, ranging from folk, to country, blues and roots. There’s a fresh and retro feel to it at the same time. I laughed. And I cried. Seriously. Lori Paul pulls you in with her adept storytelling and beating creative heart, as does Rick Genge with his fine guitar work and impressive multi-instrumental offerings, and Clay Thornton’s steady rhythms. There’s a comfortable Canadiana poking through, and Paul’s finely honed lyrics are well worth actually
reading (Read them at spiderlodge.com). The bluesy, and mysterious number ‘.30-06’ is one of my favourites. “The river has worn the mountain down to beds of silt and stone.” Evocative images of rivers telling no tales, but handfuls of sand carrying “little itty bitty bits of bone.” Hello, boss! She’s clearly learned a thing or two about bit-
y d o l Me
The 2nd Annual
tersweet love, loss and redemption. “My friend you can’t outrun your family history “I can never trust myself, to be the judge of someone else “How I made it fifty years is a goddamn mystery.” The wistful ‘Wish for You’ also tugs at the heartstrings, “Some things in life we just never get over, there’s
no consolation, no such thing as closure. “You learn this late if you live to grow older and that is my wish for you, sweet darlin’ that is my wish for you.” I love the fact that Lori put a 1943 portrait of her musically inclined and smiling great uncle Dick Kehler on the Mighty Fine Time CD cover for the art work. The CD is available on iTunes and cdbaby and the band played at Minter Gardens several times in 2013. A ways into the tunage on the latest CD, you realize you want to be one of those people you’re hearing about in the songs, running over winter lawns to see the northern stars, and living in the country and walking through the fields like Lori and the guys. “Thank you for the fish it was truly delicious.”

Thanksgiving food drive helps stock food bank September 22-28, 2013 This National Forest Week get out in the woods and discover all our forests have to offer! Plant a tree, tour a local mill or take a walk in the woods – these are just a few ways you can take part in National Forest Week. For a list of events happening around the province, check out: www.abcfp.ca To find out about cool jobs in the forest industry, visit thegreenestworkforce.ca
Find BC’s N ational Forest Week Page on Facebook
This past Saturday the BC Thanksgiving Food Drive (BCTFD) collected an estimated 402,000 pounds of food for 50 local food banks throughout the province. “It was great to see how the residents of our communities came forward to support our project,” said Andrew Rolfson, BCTFD executive director. “The success can be credited to communities selflessly working together donating time, talent, and means to meet the needs of others – for this, we are truly thankful.” In Chilliwack, the BCTFD event included more than 250 volunteers providing over 625 hours of service to the community. They were able to visit several hundreds of homes and collected more than 11,550 pounds of non-perishable food for the Salvation Army

prints that take their cue from Fair Isle knits and alpine animals were some of the showcased trends. In addition, Eastern European florals and color-blocking reminiscent of Soviet heritage were commonplace. Folk-inspired florals on dresses and jackets also could be seen. For those who want something a bit more amorphous in pattern but with the same punch of color, artistic pastel pops of colors had some designers showing off a watercolor painting effect on some of their lines. Vivid colors paired with bold patterns completed these eye-catching looks. Old Is New Again In addition to the patterns and colors that were showcased on the runway, some designers were resurrecting some trends of the not-so-distant past. At Miu Miu and Blenciaga, crop-tops made many nostalgic for the early 1990s. Plaid flannel also graced some models, furthering the early 1990s look. Although skinny jeans have quite possibly taken over for men and women alike, some designers have brought back the bootcut, which is more universally flattering for a wider array of figures. In the 1980s, logo sweatshirts and T-shirts from Benetton and Esprit were quite popular. Nowadays, new label-heavy clothing is a growing trend once again. Continuing to buck all trends, quirky designer Rad Hourini offers his monochromatic take on fashion. His styles are not only without color, they tend to be asexual as well as very graphic and symmetrical. A number of style trends will be on display this fall and into the winter.
Clothing styles change from season to season. Each year established and budding new designers call forth their creative energy to entertain the buying public with a bevy of new wardrobe items and accessories. The Fall/Winter 2013 season is no exception. Borrowing from the past but with a nod for the future, key elements emerged during the runway shows of leading designers in the fashion meccas of New York, Milan and Paris. In addition, Pantone, the standard in design colors, released their predictions of the seasons top color trends for fall and winter. Here's a look ahead at to what should be filling stores and closets in the next few months. Color Expect to see plenty of green-hued items this fall. Mossy greens, yellow-based linden green, deep green, as well as Pantone's color of the year, emerald green, will each be in-style this fall. In addition to various shades of green, expect to see some other pops of color straight out of nature. Exotic reds, acai purple and azure blues are just a few complementary colors that are expected to mix with the fall standards of slate gray and khaki. Pattern There were interesting patterns and color combinations from a number of designers. While fashion-forward shoppers may not see the same level of detail at mainstream stores than they could expect to find at designer boutiques, there certainly may be a sampling of some of the prints and patterns that adorned the runways. Modernized florals in earthy colors and graphic

The back-to-school season will hasten the pace of morning routines for everyone, from busy moms to college students. Fitting your makeup regimen into a hectic schedule can make it challenging to achieve just the right look. Moms need a quick, easy look that holds up to daily demands with little maintenance. College women need versatility that will carry them from the classroom to the club. And first-time makeup wearers will experiment and explore to discover their own personal style. The pros at EcoTools maker of beauty tools using renewable, recycled and cruelty-free materials, offer some advice for creating three easy-tomanage looks for mothers, college students and new makeup wearers as back-to-school season gets underway. Mom’s flawless face As the days grow shorter, so does morning primping time. Getting the kids and yourself out the door on time doesn’t leave much room for a beauty routine. No one wants to pull up to the carpool line with under-eye bags and sallow skin, but painstaking makeup application just isn’t practical. Focus on the products that will provide the most impact in the shortest amount of time, including concealer, mascara and blush. EcoTools Fresh & Flawless Five Piece Complexion Set speeds up morning makeup application by putting every brush you need at your fingertips. First, apply a coat of your favorite foundation over your entire face. A tinted moisturizer or foundation with SPF can be great time-savers. Cover imperfections with concealer, and buff out the edges to seamlessly blend together. Apply translucent pow-

damaging UV rays. Lip balm – because we tend to chew, lick, and expose them to the sun, our lips often need a bit of TLC. A moisturizing enriched lip balm is just the thing. You could also opt for a glossy pale-colored lip balm to add a touch of glamour. Eye shadow and pencil – don’t let thoughts of Halloween drama influence you when choosing these products. Choose a color that accentuates your eyes instead. Mascara – choose a shade more discreet than the dramatic look of an intense black. After all, the idea is to accentuate your eyes, not transform yourself into a femme fatale.

Is your daughter desperate for her first makeup kit? All her friends have them, so why not her? Of course it’s for parents to decide when their daughters are ready to take their first steps into this world of countless little pots, bottles, and jars, but here are a few tips for shopping. Are you ready for this? A good moisturizer – during the teenage years it is important to choose a quality product that is suitable for both age and skin type. There are products for normal, dry, oily, sensitive, and acne-prone skin. A skin corrector – this is used to mask small imperfections such as pimples (but not as a concealer for dark circles under the eyes). Tip: to camouflage patches of irritated skin, use concealers with a hint of green pigment. Blush – to avoid looking like a doll, use this product sparingly to give your skin a healthy glow. It is meant to call to mind the rosy cheeks of a beautiful winter day. Tanning powder – for those of you who want that “I’ve just come back from a Caribbean cruise” look all year round, you’re much better off using a tanning powder rather than subjecting your skin to

their lives. While it’s good for parents to be involved in the lives of their children, it is equally and perhaps more important that parents have their own lives. Chilliwack has had a partnership of agencies and churches, along with University of the Fraser Valley and Trinity Western University that for 16 years have offered courses for couples, branded “Boot Camp” for couples. There are three courses. If a couple took all three it would amount to 30 hours of their time. Less than a work week. Participants have often lamented that they didn’t learn these skills in school as they are so critical to their most important investment – their family. Here are few of the key skills; • Self-sooth – learn to self-calm so you can be rational and see the other’s point of view • Complain well – speak for yourself without using words that evoke blame or criticism • Be a softie – see the “soft” emotions that underlie hard feelings. For example, the soft emotion of hurt often lies beneath the hard emotion, anger. • Interpret protest accurately – the raging spouse is usually someone who is insecure about whether they matter and are making a protest in a bid to have their anxiety alleviated. • Cultivate friendship – create a love map and intentionally foster fond feelings towards the other • Create a shared vision – “Dreams within conflict” is a phrase used to describe how poorly articulated and resolved life goals become sources of ongoing conflict in relationships. For more about the Couples Boot Camp, contact Ann Davis Services in Chilliwack or www.buildinghealthyrelationships. net. Dr. Robert Lees, R.Psych

“We are going to see the parent-teacher.” That’s what a couple tells their children when they come and see me. In fact, these parents are talking about how they relate in what could be called traditional couples counselling. The reason they are coming is to Rob reduce damage LEES on their children from their distressed relationship. This seems to be a growing trend. It is based on my observations from more than 25 years of counselling families: parents more often working to fix their relationship, mindful of the impacts on the children. Yes, it is a limited sample. Yes, there may be times when it is better for parents to be apart than together to reduce exposing children to conflict. Still, it is encouraging to see the dedication of parents willing to unravel the knots in their relationships, let go of old hurts and learn new patterns and skills, because they understand the trickle down effect on their kids. The shift is somewhat nuanced. I used to see more parents determined to separate, but wanting to help their kids cope. Now I see more who are determined to stay and improve their relationship. Parents are the tectonic plates on which the emotional lives of children rest. What’s encouraging to me is that more parents seem to truly understand this. They see a direct link between their relationships and their children’s emotions and they are deeply concerned about it. Dates, playfulness, kindness and deep dialogue between parents are a balm that soothes the soul of developing and dependent young minds. There is talk about “helicopter” parents, hovering over their children, obsessed with

Three steps to running success To run is to move at a speed faster than a walk, never having both or all the feet on the ground at the same time. You can probably already do that, at least with enough skill to get around a baseball diamond, or to catch a toddler trotting toward an unguarded staircase. What you may not know be able to do, however, is run a long enough distance, or run frequently enough for your own liking. Anyone can

It burn calories, helps you lose weight, and you can run just about anywhere- whether you’re at home or away on travels. If you’re not into a regular Tanja running routine, SHAW and want to be, now is the perfect time to start. You’re likely back to a regular routine after the summer, and the cool fall weather is more conducive to running outdoors. Follow these three steps for running success! Step 1: Get ready! Before you lace up your shoes and hit the roads, do a little preparation. If you are new to exercise, or if you have a medical condition, talk to your doctor before you begin. Once you have received the go ahead, set a specific, realistic and measurable goal for yourself. Your goal may be, for example, to follow a specific run program three times per week, or to complete a 5-kilometer run in the spring. Next, look at your shoes. If the soles
are worn thin, or you vaguely remember buying them a few years ago, it is definitely time for a new pair. If you have worn your shoes for more than six months, a new pair is recommended. Do not choose your shoe based on the colours! Instead choose a pair that is suitable for the way you run. For example, some people are ‘neutral’ runners, and require a neutral shoe. Others over pronate and benefit from a shoe that offers more stability. A running specific shoe store can offer you advice on which shoe is best for you. Running clothes, such as tights, and flashy running tops are nice to have and will make your runs more comfortable. If you’re on a budget though, invest first in the right pair of shoes. Step 2: Follow a plan. Create a personal running schedule. Include when and where you will run, and for how long. Use your judgment to keep safe while running. For example, if you run at night, wear bright clothing and run with a friend. When it comes Continued: RUN/ p41

take it slow. Start with a walk to warm up. Next, run for 30 seconds to a minute. Make sure that you are able to keep up a conversation while you run. Walk briskly for two to four minutes and repeat three to six times. Walk again at the end to warm down. Slowly increase the time spent running each week or at your own pace. Remember to have fun! Be sure to keep hydrated, and to listen to your body. If you feel abnormally tired, or if you are sore, take a break. It’s okay to take a rest
day, even if it’s not planned. UrbanEndo Runners in Garrison Crossing offers Learn to Run programs, as well as running programs for intermediate and advanced runners. Step 3: Keep running! Soon enough you will be comfortable running 20 minutes or more on a regular basis. Now is and important time to keep motivated to keep running.

Home H opening p i g Early indications are the Chiefs are in a tough division this season, writes Jacob Bestebroer
GW Graham’s Josh Pretty (No. 5) follows lead blocker Tyson Klassen during a senior football clash between the GWG Grizzlies and Abbotsford Panthers. Pretty and company recorded a 28-7 win, improving to 1-0 heading into their home opener. GWG faces the Rick Hansen Hurricanes Friday night (7 pm) at Exhibition Stadium. CRAZY BEES PHOTOGRAPHY
Football Grizzlies host Friday night doubleheader
Over the span of seven days in midSeptember, the GW Graham senior Grizzlies football team has discovered how far they’ve come, and how far they’ve yet to go. On Sept. 20, the team played their regular season opener, the first senior game for a Chilliwack-based team in 30 years. They beat the Abbotsford Panthers 28-7 on the road, an impressive and somewhat unexpected start. Head coach Laurie Smith admitted afterwards that Abbotsford wasn’t expecting such
a fight. Why would they? Seven days earlier, those same Grizzlies were demolished 61-0 in preseason action by Nanaimo’s John Barsby Bulldogs. The Bulldogs are awful good, maybe the best in BC. But GWG barely put up a fight, and anyone seeing that game would have immediately pencilled them in for a winless season. Even Smith had no idea how his crew would react heading into the Abbotsford game. “We had a coaches meeting and talked about the attitude coming into the Barsby game, and I think the kids were just nervous and worried,” he said. “So we had a little philosophical shift heading into Abbotsford, telling them to just play and have fun.”
Winning is fun and now they’re 1-0. They’re clearly not cellar dwellers, nor do they belong among the elite. So what are they? Perhaps a Friday night (7 p.m.) clash with Rick Hansen’s Hurricanes will provide clarity. Hansen blanked the Robert Bateman Timberwolves 16-0 in their opener, and figure to be one of the top dogs in the AA eastern conference. “I don’t think we know yet what our team can be, but I think this Hansen game is going to be a really good indicator,” Smith said. “I’ve seen them play live and have lots of film on them. They’re not the team Barsby is but they’re very good. They will be a good measuring stick.” The game will be
played at Exhibition Stadium, the first football game contested on the newly-turfed field. Smith expects the stands to be packed and the atmosphere to be electric. “We’re telling the boys to enjoy the atmosphere, because there’s not many programs out there with this kind of support,” he said. “All their classmates and the school community are coming out to support them, and that’s something they’re going to get pumped up about. At the same time, we’re telling them to not over-think things or get too nervous.” Meanwhile, the junior varsity Grizzlies are also in action, hosting the Mission Roadrunners in a 5 p.m. start. The juniors opened their season last Wednesday with a
49-0 rout of the Rick Hansen Hurricanes. The final score indicates domination, but Smith said there was plenty to improve upon. “I’m really curious about this junior team because they’re really, really talented,” Smith said. “But we lost in the preseason in Kelowna, in a sloppy game that we should have won. We struggled against South Kamloops and didn’t play that well against Rick Hansen either.” With tons of talent on both sides of the ball, GWG should be a powerhouse. But to be the best of the best, Smith knows it will come down to fundamentals, execution and eliminating sloppy play. “They could be the best in BC, but they’ve
got a ways to go to get there,” he said.
Kim Ateah and a group of her friends have been playing soccer this summer, and are looking to carry it on into the fall. But they want more players. They play at 6 p.m. Monday nights at Chilliwack Central elementary school. The co-ed games are open to all skill levels, with no previous experience necessary. They play in any weather, from torrential downpour to blazing sunshine. For more info, contact Kim by email at kimateah@hotmail.com

After a two week break the Chiefs are back in action this weekend with a pair of home games. Prince George is here Saturday followed the next night by Troy Mick’s Salmon Arm Silverbacks. attending Fans Saturday’s game will have a chance to get BC Lion’s general manager Wally Buono’s autograph during the first intermission. A few members of the Felions dance team will also be signing autographs, and the first 1000 fans through the doors will receive a free magnet schedule. Whenever the Chiefs play home games on consecutive nights, the Back-toBack promotion is in play. Anyone who buys two tickets to the first game receives a free ticket for the game the following night. A s is the case with all As Sunday home games, it’s a 5 p.m. start and fans are invited to join the Chiefs on the ice for a skate right after the game. Early indications are the Chiefs are in a tough division this season. Having said that, it’s too early to draw any conclusions. I remember a year ago at this point discussing the Mainland division with a few v er y knowledgeable ver BCHL people and the consensus was that Surrey was the likely team to not make the playoffs. Fast for ward six months and the Eagles w ere hoisting the were league championship trophy. The main concern w ith Surrey at the time with w as goaltending. was They added Michael Santaguida w hich more than fixed which that problem, tweaked
a few other areas, and topped it all off by adding Adam Tambellini at the trade deadline. Things can change and the season is a marathon not a sprint. Looking at the Island division, Powell River is off to a nice start, winning five off their first six games. General manager/ head coach Kent Lewis does a great job there. After three straightt trips to the league finals, they took a small step back lastt season but look poised to win the Island again this year. Victoria, led by y Fitzgerald triplets who should all finish nearr the top of the scoring race, look good as well. In the Interior, it’s no surprise to see Penticton ice a strong team again this year. Despite not one returning defenseman, they y did an outstanding job restocking their team during the off season. Expect them to finish on top in the Interiorr again. West Kelowna is strong as well and are off to a good startt with five wins in seven games. Vernon may be the most interesting Interior team to watch. They host the Royal Bank Cup national championship this season which guarantees them a spot in the tournament as the host team. After three straightt trips to the Nationals they’ve missed the playoffs the last two seasons and have justt one win in their firstt six games. k On paper they look much better than theirr results have shown. Itt y could be just an early season slump but iff things don’t improve there, expect some changes. jb@chilliwackchiefs.net

Atom Giants nightmare for Knights Other than one defensive breakdown, the Blue Giants dominated. Linemen Lucas Feaver, Aiden Saunders and Andrew Fawcett delivered constant pressure on the Meadow Ridge quarterback, and linebacker Raiden Mastin got home on several blitzes. While the Blue Giants did their thing, the White Giants hammered Mission 34-18. Trent Cote was a tackling machine, and Yapo Conteh, Dayton Roger

Corey Lamb, Jayden Okoth and Connor Rushlow were other defensive stars. Kaleb Reemeyer was an offensive leader, ripping off a 40 yard run on a wide receiver reverse.

A victory by the men’s squad over their local rivals from Trinity Western University highlighted the University of the Fraser Valley’s weekend soccer results. The Cascades knocked off the Spartans 4-2 on Sunday afternoon at Bateman Park. Justin Sekhon twice staked UFV to onegoal leads by converting penalty kicks, but both times TWU rallied to knot the score on goals by Jerome Lou and Kalem Scott. The Cascades would pull away down the stretch, though, thanks to strikes by James Najman in the 64th minute and Chilliwack’s Connor MacMillan in the 73rd. Defender Sahib Phagura picked up UFV player of the game honours. Head coach Alan Errington said he was “very proud” of his team, which improved to 3-3-0, good for third in the Pacific Division of Canada West. “They played 90 minutes and showed Canada West we will
compete for a postseason berth this year,” Errington said. The UFV men had dropped their first game of the weekend, falling 3-0 to the UBC Thunderbirds in Vancouver on Friday. The Cascades had upset the defending national champs earlier this season, but settled for a split of the season series. The UFV women split a pair of games on the road, falling to the Canada West-leading Alberta Pandas 4-1 on Saturday and thumping the Mount Royal Cougars 3-0 on Sunday. Danica Kump accounted for the Cascades’ lone goal vs. Alberta, while Carly Neeson, Jade Palm and Shelby Beck were the scorers vs. Mount Royal. “Very proud of our response today, the girls put in a mature effort and were full value for the three points against a much improved Mount Royal side,” said UFV women’s coach Rob Giesbrecht, whose team is sixth in Canada West with a 2-2-1 record.

With great sadness, we announce the passing of Robert George (Bob) O’Byrne,
AMES BOB Robert Edward Ames of Chilliwack, BC. Born December 5th, 1938. Our beloved Father, grandfather, husband, brother, friend, cousin and uncle died suddenly at the age of 74 on this first day of Fall September 23, 2013. Bob was a long time community volunteer with Chilliwack Minor Hockey, the YM/YWCA and a local business man for 40 years. It was at his store, Cheam Sports, where he spent many years sharing his love of sports with his community. Bob was a devoted family man, often seen in rinks around the Lower Mainland watching his grandchildren play hockey. He loved to fish, golf, ski, make wine and he was a passionate gardener with a love for roses. He will forever and always be lovingly remembered by his wife Beverly of 51 years, his daughters Denese (Andy Anderson), Janice (Richard Simon), Roxanne (Tom Raack), and son Geoff (Rhiana).

SCOTT
early on the morning of September 4, 2013 as a result of a long struggle with Alzheimer’s. Bob was born to Melville & Winona (nee Collins) O’Byrne in Chilliwack, BC. Bob met his wife Jean while he was working at Zebellos Mining Company on Vancouver Island & then he took a job as foreman at York Farms. Bob moved with his family to Chemainus, BC where he became co-owner of Castle Roofing Company. In 1978, they moved back to Chilliwack where he worked at Dairyland until his retirement. Bob loved the outdoors; hunting, gardening & spending time at the cabin in Hope. He collected guns, swords, records & war memorabilia; he was well known for his interest in antique cars, including Ford Mustangs. An energetic & hard working man, Bob rarely went anywhere where he didn’t run into someone he considered an old friend, with always a kind word & smile for everyone he met. He leaves his wife Jean (Knelson); his children Michelle, Clinton, Cris, Brooke(Glenn); grandchildren Leanne, Brett, Lisa, Kaitlynn, Mitchell, Jordann, Brandon, Jenna & Julie; his sister Sally Andersen & nephews Dennis, Mark, Bryan & Brad. He was predeceased by his parents. There is no funeral by his request. He is not lost our dearest love; nor has he travelled far. Just stepped inside home’s loveliest room, and left the door ajar.

BOSMA RITA Rita passed away suddenly on Sunday, Sept. 22, 2013, after living all of her 61 years with cognitive and physical disabilities. Already at the age of 3 months, she underwent radiation treatments at the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota, and by 9 years old was admitted to the Woodlands School in New Westminster. A period of time was also spent at the Tranquille School near Kamloops, and at the time of her passing she was living in a wonderful and caring group home in Maple Ridge. Finally free from all her severe limitations, she is now whole and well in the presence of the Lord.
Gord Morford passed away on August 30, 2013 at Chilliwack Hospital at the age of 89. He was born in 1923 in Chilliwack and in 1942 enlisted in the Canadian Army, serving in Canada, United Kingdom, Continental Europe and the North Pacific Area and was awarded the France Germany Star. Gord was a carpenter, a lifetime member of the Elks Lodge and loved fishing. He was predeceased by his brother Ernie and wife Grace and leaves to mourn, sisters Elaine Burns and Eileen Wenn. Thank you to the staff of Cascade Lodge for your care of Gord. A celebration of his life will be held at 7:00 pm on Monday, October 7th at the Elks Lodge, 104A-8645 Young St. Chilliwack. All are welcome to attend. Online condolences may be offered at www.woodlawn-mtcheam.ca.
Rita will be lovingly remembered by her father, Haye Bosma, her siblings Anne (& Mike) Feenstra, Jack (& Tracy) Bosma, Richard (& Judy) Bosma, Edith (& Drew) Ryder, and Cathy (& Dave) Vaags, as well as two generations of nieces and nephews. Also saddened by her loss are Karen and the staff from the group home where Rita resided for the past 17 years. Rita was predeceased by her caring mother, Truce Bosma, in 2005.
