Dedicated firefighter retires Doug Olund joined Mission fire brigade in 1970 Carol Aun MISSION RECORD
Doug Olund has packed away his firefighting gear after more than 43 years with the Mission fire department. Olund joined the fire service in September 1970, after spending years chasing the engines around on his own. The recently retired station one district chief remembers going to the bus depot downtown every time he heard the fire trucks. He would follow them to their destination to see what was going on. “I wondered where they were going,” he said. Then one day, the fire chief at the time, Ray Johnston, suggested Olund joined them instead. Olund enjoyed working with others and helping people. He didn’t know what the work would be like, but the decision wasn’t difficult. The first fire he put out was on the train bridge. Someone had been welding on the bridge and the railway ties caught fire, Olund

Another call Olund will never forget happened in 1976 when he and another firefighter pulled a woman out of a burning building on Fifth Avenue and saved her life. “The biggest thing is about saving a life,” explained Olund, who received an award for that heroic deed. “That plaque means more to me than anything.” There have been many fires in Mission over the past 40-plus years and Olund can easily identify which structures in town have been burned. There have been many changes in firefighting over the past
four decades, but the most significant improvements, in Olund’s mind, were the safety advances. When he first got involved with the service there were half a dozen self-contained breathing apparatuses (SCBA) at the hall and his uniform only consisted of a top coat, helmet and a pair of boots. Now the fire station has 100 SCBA and firefighting gear that covers you from head to toe. Now nobody has to cough when they enter a smoke-filled building, he explained. At his retirement party this past weekend, Fire Chief Larry Watkinson noted Olund
has responded to 8,956 calls for service since 1993 when the department began keeping statistics on firefighter responses. “Doug is a natural-born leader,” stated Watkinson. “He is very highly respected by all ranks of the fire service.” Olund is the “epitome” of a firefighter, which is why Watkinson asked Olund to chair a committee to create core values for Mission Fire/ Service after his retirement. “I will miss it,” said Olund about the fire service. He officially retired April 1. “It was a big part of my life.” Olund was born in North Vancouver, and grew up in Mission. He joined Mission Fire/Rescue even before he was married. “All good things must come to an end,” he noted. “It’s better to go out on a high than a low.” Olund, who retired as a carpenter with the Mission School District almost two years ago, says he will continue to volunteer and be involved in the community. “I have no plans to leave. I’ve been here too long.”
NOTICE OF PROPOSED PROPERTRY DISPOSITION TAKE NOTICE that pursuant to Sections 26 and 40 of the Community Charter, the District of Mission proposes to close, undedicate and dispose of part of a highway (Farrington Street) dedicated on Plan 31178, District Lot 457, Group 1, New Westminster District, shown as the shaded area on the following map. “District of Mission Highway Closing and Undedication (Farrington Street) Bylaw 5425-2014” and a full-size copy of the plan may be inspected at the Office of the Manager of Corporate Administration, 8645 Stave Lake Street, Mission, BC V2V 4L9, between the hours of 8:00 am and 4:30 pm, Monday to Friday, except any statutory holiday. The road in question is an undeveloped portion of Farrington Street where, due to the siting restrictions (steep slopes on the southern portion and a wet marsh area on the northern portion), it is not feasible for it to be constructed as a road for vehicular access. Council wishes to close the portion of the road right-of-way adjacent to 8973 Manzer Street and sell that portion to the owner of the adjacent property (Robert and Sheila Demers) at the approved price of $32,272.80 ($9.04 per m2). The land area is 3,570 square metres (0.88 acres). Legal Description of Land to be disposed of: All and singular that portion of road dedicated on Plan 31178, District Lot 457, Group 1, New Westminster District, shown outlined in bold and marked as “PARCEL A” on the draft reference plan prepared by Raymond Janzen, British Columbia Land Surveyor, completed on March 28, 2014.
“District of Mission Highway Closing and Undedication (Farrington Street) Bylaw 5425-2014” will be considered for adoption by Council on Tuesday, April 22, 2014. If you wish to make a representation on the proposed closure, undedication and disposal of the portion of highway, please submit your comments in writing to the undersigned at 8645 Stave Lake Street, Mission, BC V2V 4L9 no later than 2:00 pm, Monday, April 21, 2014.

Downtown Mission has been identified as the preferred location for a seniors centre, but it will be at least another few years before one is built, said Bob Ingram, chair of the district’s seniors centre task force. Earlier this week, council supported a business case developed by the group and will be looking for a development partner to conduct a detailed feasibility study. Downtown is being considered because of the social, cultural and economic benefits for seniors, and a centre would fit in with the district’s redevelopment plans for the area. Ingram noted several
we did showed us a standalone seniorsonly facility isn’t what seniors are looking for,” said Ingram. “They want to see programs put in that are a part of the community, not just seniors.” The facility could also have rental space and a commercial kitchen. The seniors task force, which has been in place since 2012, studied seniors centres at several nearby communities, added Mayor Ted Adlem, who is also a member of the group. The proposed operating model would see the district as owners of the building and the Mission Seniors Centre Association as the managers of the facility.

Hensman: We held staff accountable FROM 1
Projects fall behind, he added, and pointed to water main replacement work as an example. Last December, the district awarded the project to the lowest bidder, but some council members criticized the length of time it took to get to the tendering phase. Council had expected the project to be finished by the end of 2013, but Mission’s manager of engineering services explained at the time there was a lack of in-house expertise and staff shortages. Mission’s engineering department is one of the hardest hit by staff departures, with the recent resignations of its director, manager of assets and infrastructure, works
inspector, a technician and a clerk. Six of the engineering department’s 16 positions are vacant, according to statistics from the district. Two contractors have been brought in to fill the roles of director and project engineer until permanent staff is hired. It’s difficult to find qualified engineers for Mission because there is a shortage Canada-wide, said Bjorgaard, who is considering bringing in a recruiter for the process. “We’re never in a hurry to make a decision.” Tilbury told The Record he has conducted exit interviews with almost everyone who has left municipal hall and believes staff are leaving because of “micromanaging from the CAO, and bullying and berating from council.”
Tilbury noted he had personally experienced poor treatment from fellow members of council, such as when he was removed as the council liaison to the Mission Downtown Business Association earlier this year without consultation. Two former Mission managers contacted by The Record spoke on condition that they not be identified and confirmed that micromanagement made them unable to make decisions and that was one of the reasons for their departure. “In my opinion, employees left because they don’t like the atmosphere,” said Tilbury. Hensman defended Mission’s CAO and praised Bjorgaard for “re-tooling” an organization based on council’s request.
Adlem added, “Council hired the CAO to do a job, and it’s his job to manage.” Bjorgaard said, “Within any organization, when you’re comfortable with what’s going on in a department, you have very little involvement as a CAO … but when you have a concern, or there’s a high-profile thing going on, it’s up to you to make sure things are on track.” Accountability is a major focus at the district and is higher now than it ever has been, the CAO added. “Accountability is key to creating an organization that’s effective and efficient.” Hensman also didn’t think council was guilty of bullying or berating staff. “We held staff accountable,” said Hensman.

QUESTION OF THE WEEK
Investigate district staffing issues
Over the past two and a half years, nine senior managers have left the District of Mission. Their departures were part of numerous staff exits between 2012 and this March – 34 full-time employees left their positions, and 13 retired. By comparison, similar-sized community Port Moody saw four senior managers depart, and Vernon lost only one. Couns. Jeff Jewell and Tony Luck are concerned about the loss of employees. Jewell calls it “excessive,” and Luck labels it “abnormal.” This week, Coun. Nelson Tilbury raised the possibility that the departures of senior staff – particularly in the engineering department – could slow the district’s ability to do business. Tilbury also maintains
bullying and berating by council caused some of the departures. He also cites micromanaging by the district’s chief administration officer (CAO). Yet Coun. Dave Hensman calls it a “weird fantasy” that there are more staff leaving the District of Mission, and says council was not bullying, just holding staff accountable. Mayor Ted Adlem stands by the district CAO, and maintains that some people don’t like change, and it’s better they leave the organization. The contrast of opinions on these serious concerns is stark, and worrisome. An examination and evaluation by an external agency of staffing issues and operational capabilities at the District of Mission is in order.

Remove coyotes from Cedar Valley I read the article published in the April 4 issue of The Mission Record about the coyote attack on my dog, Teako, and other dogs in the Cedar Valley area of Mission. I want to specifically address the comments of B.C. conservation officer Paul McFadden who said, “... they’re aware of the problem, and
agreed ... that puppy season makes the animals more aggressive. ... ‘They’re as protective as a female black bear.’” I want to implore Mr. McFadden and his colleagues to take steps to remove the coyotes from the greenbelt areas of Cedar Valley and have them relocated much further out, away from residential areas. If
they are not removed the attacks on pets will be repeated again and again. Dogs and the families who care for them should not have to be constantly fearful of coyote attacks. On a more positive note I cannot adequately express my gratitude to Dr. Susan Calverley and her staff
at Mission Veterinary Hospital on Horne St. They are an absolutely wonderful group of people and Mission is very blessed to have them. In addition to giving Teako exemplary care throughout the time we had him, and especially after his coyote attack, they also sent us a beautiful flower arrangement
and card the day after his death. When I went in to their clinic a few days later to collect Teako’s cremated remains they were beautifully boxed and wrapped in a gift bag with yet another lovely card. Thank you so much. Keep up the wonderful work everyone! Karen Gardner Mission

Untreated hearing loss tied to lower earning potential Maximizing one’s ability to hear well should be part of any smart career strategy. Individual performance in an organization is found to be directly related to listening ability or perceived listening effectiveness. In fact, listening is one of the top skills employers seek in entry-level employees and in those being promoted. People who both hear and listen well are also more likely to establish positive working relationships with bosses, clients, and colleagues.

BEING A PERSON OF ENCOURAGEMENT
In the Bible, the book of Acts tells of a man named Joseph who was surnamed Barnabas by the apostles which means, Son of Encouragement. He was a Levite, and he sold a field which belonged to him, and brought the money to be shared with the apostles. (Acts 4:36) What a nice thing to have been considered a “person of encouragement�, especially since there were so many adverse things happening to the apostles at that time. There will always be concerns and negativity in the world, and the way we deal with our own hardships and difficulties, will in part, determine our happiness and peace of mind. We should also be aware of our actions and conversations with others, because they are affected by the way we interact with them. Being kind, truthful, and encouraging to others is a reflection of God’s love toward us. We are what we profess with our lips, and when we are hopeful and uplifting to those in whom we come in contact, we are also encouraging ourselves.

As the last residents of Pleasant View Care Home move out, the facility will be empty until Fraser Health determines what to do with the building. Pleasant View residents are moving into The Residence this week, a brand new, state-of-the-art care facility for seniors and those with acute brain injuries which opened earlier this month. “We are currently reviewing various options for the future of Pleasant View to continue delivering health care services to the community of Mission,� said Erin Labbe, Fraser Health spokesperson. The property which the Pleasant View building was on belonged to the District of Mission until recently when it was sold to Fraser Health for $1.7 million. Mission owned the land, but not the building, explained Mayor Ted Adlem. Pleasant
View leased the land for a dollar a year, and Mission, which wasn’t earning any revenue from the deal, was not interested in continuing with the same arrangement for another purpose. The district offered to sell the land to Fraser Health, said Adlem, noting the property was assessed at $1.5 million. “What we paid for the Welton site was offset by the sale of Pleasant View,� said Coun. Dave Hensman. The district purchased the property at 7337 Welton St. last December for $1.95 million to stimulate growth downtown. “We will work with Fraser Health to develop a different project [at the Pleasant View site], but we don’t know what it will be yet,� said Adlem. Pleasant View, a 76-single room care home located on Hurd Street not far from Mission Memorial Hospital, was founded by the community and Royal Canadian Legion Branch 57 in 1980.

Janzen named best boxer
An award-winning bout featuring Marco Janzen was among the highlights as Mission City Boxing hosted a recent Saturday Night Fights event at Durieu School. The gym was packed with about 250 boxing fans for 16 exciting fights, and Janzen’s tilt with Ryan Monga of Nanaimo was voted best youth bout of the evening. Three other bouts featured Mission City Boxing athletes. Owen Bergen, 17, won his bout against Tokoara Elliot of Nanaimo, while clubmates Vinny Janzen (age 11) and Issac Andres (12) had an exciting exhibition match which was a great experience for both of them. Mission’s Gabe Donaver, 15, made his debut in an exhibition versus Ivan Boyd.
Gymnasts earn medals Tamara Skulstad, with an all-around gold medal, led an impressive medal haul by Mission athletes as Twisters Gymnastics Club hosted its invitational meet last weekend. Competing in the provincial Level 5 tyro division, Skulstad earned top marks on the vault, bars, beam and floor en route to the overall title. Tamara’s sister Ashlynn also climbed the podium, winning gold on the floor in the national open category, and both sisters will compete at the upcoming Western Canadian Championships. Other Twisters athletes from Mission to earn medals included Justine Robinson (Level 5 open, tie-gold on vault, bronze all-around), Marissa Engh (Level 3 argo, bronze all-around and bars) and Sydney Steeg (Level 2 novice, bronze on beam). On the men’s side, Ethan Ikeda (gold on floor and pommels, silver on rings and parallel bars, bronze allaround) and Evan Raible (gold on horizontal bar, bronze on pommels) climbed the podium in the Level 2 category.

variable valve timing, mated to a six-speed automatic transmission. The two base engines available are a solid 2.4-litre four-cylinder and a 2.5 version, both of which are likely adequate for commuter use. I headed straight for Highway One and it positively purred along the long, clear stretches open to the daytime driver. Great acceleration in take-off and passing with limited lean and sway when cornering at speed. Back in urban madness, it offered a good view of fast encroaching vehicles from side streets and the rear. I mention this because I expected the sleek window profiles might hinder views, especially to the rear. Hence, it was also not as much of a beast to park at the supermarket as I had feared. Light steering also assisted in that manouevre. On the urban performance front, the transmission took the annoyance out of stop-go traffic. Have to think it was gulping gas though in smoothing out the urban trek. The Impala with the V6 starts at $32,945 (around $3,000 more than the 4-cylinder-equipped versions) but the test car options, which included rear park assist, rear vision camera, collision and lane departure alerts, premium audio, sunroof, added another $7,000. It will compete with the Dodge Charger and Ford Taurus domestically and a host of imports. Now to my reservations: the fuel economy for the V6 is 11.1/6.9L 100km (city/highway) and while that is not bad for a large car, it’s not the best in its segment. The four-cylinder eco version is impressive at 8.7/5.8L 100km (city/ highway). That said,I don’t think fuel economy will be a deal breaker for most people. My continued reservations really boil down to reliability. It’s a brand new car and we should wait a couple or three years before anointing this car as the best domestic sedan ever. That caution should not stop you from taking one for a spin. keith.morgan@drivewaybc.ca

A Ford Euro car for the Americas I’ve been a huge fan of the Fiesta. In fact, I prefer it to the bigger Focus, it is a perfect city runabout with gocart-like handling and a stylish little package.
Looks
by Zack Spencer Ford has done an excellent job of using its worldwide expertise to bring some very practical, yet fun to drive, small cars to North America. Using Europeans to build the Ford Focus and Fiesta for a worldwide market enabled the manufacturer to bring these superb-handling cars virtually unchanged to our shores. On top of that, Ford is also selling its sportiest ST versions of both these cars. The Focus ST was introduced last year and this year we get the Fiesta ST “hot hatch.”
For 2014, all Fiesta models get a minor facelift with a new front grille and headlights. The ST is easy to spot because of the black honeycomb grille with an ST badge, bigger alloy wheels, a rear spoiler hanging over the rear window, a bigger rear air diffuser with twin exhaust tips and blacked out trim around the windows. The ST looks like it means business. There are two exterior options that might be worth the money. Upgraded paint colours like ‘Molten Orange’ or ‘Green Envy Metallic’ cost $400 and the smoked grey wheels with red brake calipers cost $500 more. The base ST at $24,999 comes very well equipped and is ready to cause some trouble.
The first thing that pops right out on the ST interior are the two heavily bolstered Recaro sports seats. These are not meant for big people, you just won’t fit. They are snug and supportive but lack some simple, yet important adjustments. The front of the seat sits much higher than the back so your backside is very low with your knees pointing up. This produces a sporty feel initially but on longer trips, the lack of adjustment prevents the driver from being able to stretch their legs. The dash has been updated to include a MyFord Touch screen for radio, phone, navigation and climate functions. The screen is rather small and far away from the driver, which makes accessing the small, virtual buttons on the screen a challenge. However, it does look much better than the older Fiesta dash.

gave him all the wrong answers. And, I didn’t tell him the camper was way too heavy for the truck to be safe. He also asked for a vehicle history report. I pulled the CarProof report out. I mean, I had nothing to hide. He asked me what “rebuilt*” meant. I told him that, because of the small accident, the transmission needed to be rebuilt. Oh, but I’d altered the sections detailing the amount of damage. Judging from his English skills, I’m sure he didn’t understand the difference. At least he was trying. He got an “A” for effort. I hope he figures out that the truck and camper would be unsafe on the road when he gets it fully loaded with passengers, fuel and gear. Good thing I have my “no returns” policy! Yes, I know what you’re all thinking. This is the lowest of the low. But you have to understand. I was slightly manic about this whole thing. At this point, I would do anything to make a sale and get myself another wallet full of cash.
*Rebuilt - This status is assigned to “salvage” vehicles after they have been repaired and have passed inspection. Vehicle status alone does not fully describe a vehicle’s mechanical condition or damage history. This applies to RVs, motorcycles, cars and trucks.

Thank goodness, the stolen vehicle was behind me. Did I feel bad? Yes. Does it make me a bad person for selling a stolen vehicle? Probably. But to outsiders, my life hasn’t changed. I’m still the same old Walt. Oh, if they only knew. I was on a roll. To my disbelief, I’d sold seven cars already. I guess you could say it was a part of me now – I “flip” cars on the side. And, I was branching out – with a truck and camper. The truck had been rebuilt. It was roadworthy again. I even had the inspection records to prove it. And the camper? That was marketing genius. When I put it up for sale, I fibbed. But only a little bit. “Truck for sale. Fixed after fender bender, looks new. Includes camper. It’s been in an accident, so I’m selling both for a low price. Great for family adventures. Call if interested.” Shortly after, I got a call. The man had a distinct, charming accent. He asked me what a “fender bender” was. I explained that it was a small accident. He seemed pleased and asked to meet me the next day. I assumed he was relatively new to the country, so I thought this would be an easy sale. Boy was I wrong! He’d gone to “new immigrant” welcome classes, where they shared information about life in Canada. I think this was where he developed an interest in camping Canadian style. He knew all the right questions to ask. But, I

driveway
Fiesta ST delivers plenty of smiles continued from page 19
powerful front seat heaters, automatic climate control, a fat leather steering wheel with redundant radio controls and a leather-covered manual shifter. The back seat has always been tight in the Fiesta; this is perfect for a single person or couple, not the best for a family.
Drive In an era of cars that almost drive themselves, the Fiesta ST is a throwback to
a time when the driver felt connected to the machine. The suspension is much firmer than the regular Fiesta, almost harsh over bumpy roads but the feedback to the driver through the tight steering ratio, firm chassis and the grippy Recaro seats is superb. The turbocharged, direct injection 1.6L Ecoboost engine pumps out 197hp. Its only sold with a super-slick manual transmission that shifts with no effort at all, and the clutch is precise. In such a small car, this
engine lets the driver do pretty much anything at will. Want to pass on the highway? No problem. Want to scoot away from a traffic light? No effort at all. This really is a car that does everything very well, including getting good fuel economy when the throttle is used lightly: using only 7.8L/100km in the city and 5.6L on the highway.
Verdict At $24,999, the price might seem a bit steep for a subcompact car but this little machine comes almost fully
loaded for that price. The options available are not “must have” items so the price can be kept in check. This Fiesta ST is a gem in the subcompact class, delivering great economy, fabulous interior and plenty of smiles. The ST just delivers much bigger smiles.
The Lowdown Power: 1.6L turbo with 197hp Fill-up: 7.9L/5.6L/100km (city/highway) Sticker price: $24,999 Zack.spencer@drivewaybc.ca

Community Living association must adjust for budget cuts
MSA FORD’S
LEGENDARY TIRE EVENT IS ON NOW!
Non-profit group is organizing a fundraising gala Carol Aun MISSION RECORD
Mission Association for Community Living (MACL) is struggling with recent cuts and is now fundraising to maintain its current level of programs and services. Funding has decreased in the past three years, explained executive director Dawn Hein. MACL offers nine programs and annually serves 450 clients who have been diagnosed with intellectual or developmental disabilities. It has an annual operating budget of $7.5 million and employs about 150 workers, including 135 unionized (BCGEU) employees. All service contracts are negotiated and renewed annually. MACL receives about $6.5 million from
Community Living BC to run programs for adults every year, while $900,000 comes from the Ministry of Child and Family Development (MCFD) to support youth between the ages of three and 19. The non-profit group also applies for community gaming grants every year to run the family support and respitality programs. MACL accumulated a $500,000 deficit in the past three years, and was able to pay it off with its reserves. “Some of this is a result of necessary, but unfunded repair/ maintenance; some is related to the relocation of a group home due to mobility issues for residents, and the rest is over-delivery of services,” Hein explained. MACL was forced to make cuts last year

after learning the provincial government would not be covering the negotiated three per cent wage increases for unionized workers before the last provincial election. The salary increases for unionized workers add up to about $65,000 a year for MACL. Last September, the province also cut MACL’s administration budget 10 per cent, retroactive to April 2013. MACL’s receptionist was laid off last fall and the non-profit association has been trying to find other efficiencies. The group is giving up its lease at Rutledge House, and re-organizing its administration office on Second Avenue to make room for the employment service program. Everyone MACL supports is a Mission res-
ident, and there are new clients every year as youth finish school and no longer receive support from MCFD. “They come to us for employment support or living support,” said Hein. “MACL does not want to cut programs, but we have had to make some changes to keep our head above water.” To help fund services, MACL is organizing a fundraising gala in June. The dress code will be cocktail attire and there will be live and silent auctions as well as dinner and dancing. Vancouver band Top City will be providing the music. Tickets to the event are $80 each or $600 for a table for eight. To reserve your tickets, or for more information, call 604-8269080.

Mission Mid-day Rotary donates $10,000 to food bank Be The Change organizing April 21 community event Celebrate Earth Day at Mission’s Fraser River Heritage Park agreement between Mission residents and two local farmers. The customer pays a lumpsum to the farmer at the beginning of the growing season, providing the farmer with operating capital at a time when he would normally have no income but when his costs are highest. In return, the customer receives a box of fresh, organic, in-season produce every week for 16 weeks. The second initiative was the Mission Carbon Challenge, an attempt to raise awareness of the effect many of our everyday choices have on carbon emissions and climate-change. At Mission Fest and at the Christmas Farmers’ Market, people were offered the opportunity to take a simple survey to determine how well they are doing in the fight against carbon emissions. Most recently, the group hosted a series of six facilitated public discussions on a variety of themes related to how we live on Earth, both individually and as a community. Join your neighbours in a beautiful setting for fun and food in an Earth-friendly celebration of Earth and spring. Wear your cheeriest spring colours.

Mission residents are invited to celebrate Earth Day at the second annual Earth-friendly, zero-waste pot luck dinner in Fraser River Heritage Park on Monday, April 21. Preceding the potluck will be activities from noon to 3 p.m. This Earth-friendly, no waste celebration features a scavenger hunt, park clean up, face painting, a place to decorate your own planter, and free seedlings to the first 100 kids. The potluck begins at 5 p.m. in the shelter at the park and will take place rain or shine. Everyone attending is asked to bring one dish of food with enough to serve a few people plus their own non-disposable plate, cutlery, mug, napkin and non-alcoholic beverage. The event will be hosted by the Mission Be The Change Action Circle, a small group of citizens who came together in October 2011 after attending the environmental symposium presented in Mission by the Be The Change Earth Alliance. Its goal is to work towards creating an environmentally sustainable, socially just and spiritually fulfilling human presence on Earth. The group’s first project was the promotion of a CSA (community supported agriculture), a mutually supportive
The Rotary Club of Mission Mid-day presented a $10,000 cheque to Ron Leger for the St. Joseph’s Food Bank Building Fund recently. Club fundraisers accounted for $5,750 of the donation, while the remainder was from a Rotary District 50/50 grant. The money will cover the cost of paint and supplies, flooring, and appliances. Rotarians from the Midday Club will also be hands on when it comes time for the painting to be done. This is a project that the Club has been involved in from the beginning and members are looking forward to putting the finishing touches on the building.

The District of Mission sends another big thank you to all Mission residents, who have embraced the idea of using their rot pots for diverting food waste from the landÀll. You are making a signiÀcant difference in greenhouse gas reductions. Curbside compost tonnages are now up by 73 percent in Mission. Reward yourself by picking up your free rot pot compost at the Mission LandÀll (32000 Dewdney Trunk Road, just east of the Stave Lake dam) on Saturday, April 26th, from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. There will be enough for everyone, so please make use of the entire time window to avoid unnecessary delays. No early birds, please. Quantities will be limited to one cubic yard per customer (District of Mission residents only). Bring your pickup truck to be loaded by machine, or bring a shovel and a container to pack up some compost yourself. Rot pot compost is not a potting soil, but intended to be mixed into existing Áower and vegetable beds as a soil conditioner and slow-release fertilizer. If you miss this event, you can purchase smaller quantities of rot pot compost at Global Landscaping Supplies at 7085 Bridge Street (globallandscapingsupplies.webs.com or call 604-852-8905). Larger quantities (upwards of 15 cubic yards) of rot pot compost can be purchased directly from the processor. Please phone 604-826-7379 for additional information.

Mountain Biking Tourism in Mission Frank Gundermann
FVMBA
Mountain biking has gained acceptance as an accessible sport and is transforming communities across the world. Mountain biking is enjoyed by a wide range of residents and tourists in the Mission area, from families looking for an enjoyable time in nature on a trail away from busy streets, to couples enjoying rides together, young men bonding over trail challenges, and increasingly by mid-life adults, looking for an adventure tourism. ECONOMIC VALUE OF MOUNTAIN BIKING IN THE FRASER VALLEY Mountain biking has a minimal environmental impact but far reaching economic potential. Recent research by Linfield College Professor Jeff McNamee found a single event that lasted a mere three days brought more than $1 million into Oakridge, Oregon whose population is just over 3,000, and three short mountain biking events in two Oregon towns drew more than 1,700 visitors from 28 states and five countries. ¹ Locally, 15 bike shops in the Fraser Valley with saw $16 million in sales in 2011, and $635 million attributed to the BC economy through mountain biking directly and indirectly in 2011. WHO IS COMING AND WHY “We tend to envision mountain bikers as young punks, but most visitors at these events were older adults with disposable incomes,” McNamee says. Almost three-quarters of the participants had incomes of $100,000 or higher, with 30 percent of all visitors making more than $200,000. “These are the types of tourists communities want to attract,”
said McNamee, whose findings also show that mountain bikers spend more than the average tourist and stay significantly longer, an average of four days. Mountain bikers will travel long distances to ride spectacular trails. Renowned trail systems and stretches of trail taking several hours for the experienced riders to complete become highlights of a trip, and are the main attraction to a riding area. They look for communities which welcome them and provide well mapped and documented trails which have various levels of difficulty. While trails attract these adventure tourists, they are looking for bike friendly accommodations and businesses. Hotels which will allow them to secure their $6000 bike in the room, or a guarded area will be popular; as will be restaurants which cater to this same security concern, allowing visibility to bikes from the eating areas.
put in place, and improved parking. This year FVMBA is offering various ride programs, including: “Two Tired Tots” learn to ride 4-7yr olds, “Trail Riders” 8-12yr olds, and “Mountain Riders”, 13+ adults, as programs through the Mission Leisure Centre, “Self Esteem on 2 Wheels”, a graduated program for elementary school kids’ gr. 3 through gr. 6 at Hatzic and Windebank. Group rides occur frequently, and introduce new people to the area and sport. Every year FVMBA hosts the Trailblazer Mountain Bike Race Series, which holds 4 races in the Fraser Valley, 2 of which are in Mission. The races see 100+ participants, including racers from Oregon, Washington and BC. The racing is considered grass roots racing, and includes kids’ events, and U15 courses. In addition, FVMBA successfully held its first women only mountain biking event in 2013 which drew over 77 ladies, with 23% coming from out of province, HOW THE FVMBA IS BUILDING and 66% from outside of the Fraser & MAINTAINING PROGRAMS The FVMBA is a registered non-profit, Valley.

“Spring has sprung, the grass has ris, I wonder where the birdies is” The answer is Mission! Where else can you wear sandals and a short sleeve shirt on April 1st? April has National Poetry Month, Daffodil Month and National Volunteer week which are all important events, but especially April is Tourism month. As a newcomer to Mission, when I think of tourism in Mission, I quickly think of Westminster Abbey, Fraser River Heritage Park, Stave Falls Visitor Centre, Mission Raceway Park, and Hemlock to name a few. But there are many businesses that cater to the tourist; STS Guiding Service, Fraser River Safari for example; we have a museum and MAC Family Gallery and we lots of great eclectic restaurants for our tourists to enjoy! That doesn’t count the many festivals every year; Mission Folk Festival, the Fraser Valley Bald Eagle Festival that attract thousands to our area. As the District of Mission develops
the Interpretive Forest with new recreation opportunities for residents and visitors to explore the beautiful mountains, forest and lakes on the west side of Stave Lake., we can expect even more visitors to our community. Who not only can enjoy the great fishing, a growing Farmers Market and our Candlelight Parade, bit also biking (all kinds) and geo-caching, the new trends in our area. But I suggest that we are all connected somehow to the tourist dollar. In a tourism presentation the speaker challenged the audience to find a business in the room that was not affected by tourism. As an accountant I didn’t think that my business was affected by the rise and fall of tourism, but I was quickly reminded that those businesses that I did have as my clients were affected either directly or indirectly by tourism and therefor so was my business! According to a report released by Deloitte the most useful social media tool

for travel is Facebook (36%) followed by Trip Advisor (19%) and Travel Blogs (8%). That means that 63% of travellers are on the internet so make sure you have a striking online presence.

Click Media Works launches eBooks ideal for smart and busy people Kathleen Rake
CLICK MEDIA WORKS
With one eBook published, and another about to launch, writer Kathleen Rake, owner of Click Media Works in Mission, is building a special connection with readers who are pressed for time. Her series of Swift Kick Guides: Essential Information for Smart + Busy People focuses on subjects related to business and pleasure, and she plans to fill information gaps on a range of subjects from effective writing and making the news to how to pair, serve and taste wines. Making the News, the premier book in the series, shows readers how to write a hard-hitting news release and features expert tips and tactics ideal for small business, non-profits and solo-preneurs. It was successfully launched last year and is available on Kobo, Amazon and the Swift Kick Guides website. The second title, No More Gobbledegook: Write What You Mean, Quickly and with Impact, will be published next month. “Swift Kick Guides are for people who don’t have time to
read large volumes or sort through and aggregate all the little bits of information they find on the Internet. These eBooks are short and to the point,” said Rake, who opened Click Media Works, a multi-faceted communications firm in Mission, 10 years ago. Rake writes a newspaper column and blog (betweenthevines.ca) about wine and its pleasures. She plans to develop two wine-related Swift Kick Guides that will help people feel comfortable in any wine situation. Swift Kick Guides are published in both ePUB and PDF formats. Other titles on tap include You Want Wow! How to Write Ad Copy that Gets Results and Build a Better Résumé. Rake also plans to invite other knowledgeable professionals to write about their areas of expertise as part of the Swift Kick Guides series. For more information, visit www.SwiftKickGuides.com or contact Rake directly at (604) 556-6459 or publisher@swiftkickguides.com.

This is the go-to piece for Chamber members as it highlights new members, benefits and member to member news. It also allows members to share their stories and successes.

Potential — Unleashed Mission’s Interpretive Forest Set one foot in the Stave West area of Mission and you can see the potential. Today, this dense area of working forest, spectacular lakes, streams and waterfalls will soon tell a new story. Stave West is poised to be a unique and thriving ecotourism destination in Mission. For over 55 years, the District of Mission has been managing a provincially-granted Tree Farm License on over 10,000 hectares of Crown land. With the designation of 5,000 hectares as the Mission Interpretive Forest, the District is now creating a plan that will transform the area, setting the bar for outdoor education, recreation, and First Nations’ partnerships.
In early 2014, the District appointed a Recreation Master Plan Task Force, who are now creating a formal work plan that will involve research of best practices, as well as stakeholder and user group consultations. “We are developing a plan that will give us a solid framework so that we can accelerate this exciting project,” explains Bill Brooks, Chair of the Recreation Master Plan Task Force. “The plan will get the ball rolling. When finished, the area will reflect what the community wants and what will be most economically beneficial for Mission.” The area has seen several positive developments toward the goal of creating a formalized

recreation destination. In addition to the longstanding Zajac Ranch and the proposed Tim Horton Children’s Foundation Camp, last year outdoor enthusiasts enjoyed a brand new 40site campground at Sayres Lake, developed by the Province. Campers are able to enjoy fishing, swimming and boating from May 1 to Thanksgiving. “Sayres Lake Campground showcases what the future will hold for Stave West,” says Brooks. “The task force is looking forward to working with First Nations’ communities, user groups, stakeholders and the community and Province as we plan the direction for this spectacular area.”

Ann Adrian passed quietly away into the arms of her Heavenly Father on Monday, April 7, 2014 after a brief illness. Ann is survived by her loving husband Henry; children, Verna, Heather, Eleanor, Ron, Jim, Rick and spouses; 18 grandchildren and 4 great-grandchildren. Ann was a loving wife, good mother, much loved sister and sister-in-law. She was a playful person, and loved all her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren dearly. They were the flowers in her garden, and she rejoiced in their beauty as she watched them grow. Ann was trained as an LPN before her marriage to Henry, and this proved very helpful as they raised their busy family. In her long and energetic lifetime, Ann was a Pioneer Girl’s Leader, sang in a gospel trio, and taught Sunday School. She liked basketball, scrabble, quilting, playing guitar, gardening, crafts, and so much more. She even hiked the West Coast Trail and Mt. Cheam with her friend Katie and their teenage sons. Ann was a good “running mate” beside Henry, her husband of 61 years, and helped in his lifetime work of building. Ann will be dearly missed by all her family and friends. We love you. We miss you. Funeral Service to take place on Saturday, April 12 at 1:00 pm at Northside Community Church, 33507 Dewdney Trunk Rd, Mission BC.

HAAK Edward John 1931 - 2014 Edward John Haak, of Old Clayburn Road, Abbotsford, BC passed away on April 1, 2014 at the age of 82 after a brief battle with cancer. He was predeceased by his parents Henry and Helen Haak, his first wife Elisabeth, his second son Don, and a great-grandson Josiah Haak. He is survived by his second wife Marie, children Dennis (Alita), (Bev), Lorne (Lydia), Gord (Chrystal), Betty-Lou Hildebrandt (Ron), stepson Brent Birch, 4 siblings, 17 grandchildren, and 19 greatgrandchildren. Ed was born near Hepburn, Saskatchewan on October 6, 1931. The family moved to Black Creek, Vancouver Island when he was 4 years old and later to the Mt. Lehman area when he was 16. Ed spent the early part of his career with H.B. Contracting supervising infrastructure projects such as pipelines, bridges, and reservoirs. In 1966 he purchased his father’s dairy farm in Mt. Lehman, and over time expanded and improved the operation. He retired from farming in 1995. Ed volunteered for many years in his local church, as a music leader, choir member, and deacon. Ed will fondly be remembered as a follower of Jesus, an avid fisherman, a skilled handyman, and for his generosity to family, friends, neighbours, and those in need. The family would like to thank Dr. John Chan, a number of specialists and the staff at the ACE and Oncology units of Abbotsford Regional Hospital who provided medical care for Ed during his final weeks. A memorial service was held at Ross Road Community Church on April 7, 2014. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made out to Compassion Canada or Transport for Christ. Online condolences to the family may be made at
NIGHTINGALE, KEITH It is with deep sorrow that we share the peaceful passing of Keith Nightingale, on April 4, 2014, with his family by his side. Keith was a man of integrity, who held himself to a high moral code. He possessed an infectious sense of humour, and effortlessly put others around him at ease. He is survived by his loving wife of 47 years, Anita, sons Steven (Sue) and Chris (Robyn), three precious grandchildren: Mikalya, Desiree and Cohen, brother-in-law Jeff (Lori), niece Justine and nephew Mike. Serving and protecting his community was Keith’s calling, and he proudly served as a Police Officer for 37 years. He began his career with the Vancouver Police Department, but spent the majority of his years as a highly respected member of the Abbotsford Police Department. While passionate about policing and family life, Keith also found joy in playing hockey, canoeing, bike-riding, reading, walking his beloved dog L.T., and taking long sunny drives in his shiny red Camaro, with his favourite lady by his side. A Celebration of Life ceremony will be held at the Rancho on Thursday, April 17th, at 1:00 pm. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Heart and Stroke Foundation. Thank-you to all the medical professionals who provided care, compassion and first class treatment to Keith. He was a vibrant, strong, loving and genuine man who will be greatly missed.
