It was a nature walk with a purpose. Around 45 people set out for an hour-long stroll around Brydon Lagoon on Wednesday afternoon. Among them were members of the Langley Field Naturalists Society, City parks and engineering managers and a trio of City councillors in whose hands the fate of the pond, where thousands of fish died during the B.C. Day long weekend, may very well rest. Led by Langley Field Naturalists Rhys Griffiths and Anthea Farr, the purpose of the tour was to provide a history of the lagoon, discuss the challenges it is facing and to offer people enough information to begin brainstorming possible solutions. “It’s a special place — ideal for wildlife and wildlife viewing,” said Farr, who is a past president of the Langley Field Naturalist Society and the person who wrote the original proposal to the City of Langley to turn the decommissioned sewer lagoon into a nature park. In the mid-1980s, using grant money from the province, LFN members set about building nature trails, installing nest boxes, erecting educational signage, planting berry-producing shrubs to attract songbirds and creating a viewing area, among other improvements.
Langley Field Naturalist Society member and past president Rhys Griffiths leads a walking tour of Brydon Lagoon on Oct. 1. The event, which drew about 45 people, was intended to educate residents about the challenges facing the lagoon and inspire a search for solutions.

Yorkson middle school opens over capacity MO N I Q U E TA M M I N G A Ti m e s Re po r t e r
Opening day at Langley’s newest school, Yorkson Creek Middle School, was met with many smiling faces but some hiccups too, said Principal Tim Everson, who presented a full report on the $23 million gold LEED school to the board of education last Tuesday, Sept. 30.
Located off busy 208 Street and in the middle of lots of ongoing development, everyone knew drop off and pick up of children would be an issue. “We had a lot of parking lot woes,” said Everson. “At the end of the day it was utter madness. But the positive of this is 100 more students signed up for the bus system so

that is 350 students coming by bus, roughly half.” So far, 793 Grade 6 to 8 students attend. That is over capacity but around 840 students (if the portables are included) can be accommodated. Of that population, there are 88 students with special needs, nine with low incident needs, and at least 75 ELL (English lan-
guage learning) students. There are 71 staff, a full-time Aboriginal student worker, resource teacher for each grade, four ELL support staff and counsellor and childcare workers. Unlike high school, teachers work in pods but like elementary, students have one main teacher and do have curriculum with a couple of other teachers.

Home invasion suspect’s fate in judge’s hands DECISION EXPECTED TO BE HANDED DOWN IN DECEMBER MONIQUE TA MMING A Time s Re po rte r
DAN FER GUSON L an gley Time s
Langley RCMP cordoned off the scene of a Wednesday (Oct. 1) incident where one man died in Aldergrove. IHIT was called when the death initially seemed suspicious but police announced Friday that two men, arrested at the scene, had been released and that no charges would be forthcoming.
Aldergrove death was not a murder, IHIT has determined NO CHARGES ARE WARRENTED AGAINST TWO MEN TAKEN INTO CUSTODY FOLLOWING DEATH, SAY POLICE B REN D A AN D E R SO N Ti m e s Re po r t e r
A man who died following a disturbance at an Aldergrove home on Wednesday evening was not murdered, as police first suspected. In fact, said IHIT spokesperson, Staff Sgt. Jennifer Pound, it appears that Clayton Marr, 51, had broken into the house where he was later found unconscious by police officers who were responding to the emergency call on Oct. 1. Marr had entered the residence in the

27500 block of 32 Avenue when he was confronted by the homeowner and a neighbour, said Pound. The two men attempted to restrain Marr and called police. However, by the time RCMP officers arrived at around 8:30 p.m., Marr had lost consciousness. He was taken to hospital where he was pronounced dead. The resident and neighbour were taken into custody by police, but were later released when evidence gathered at the

scene failed to support any charges. A neighbour told The TImes on Thursday that the house where the disturbance occurred had recently been sold. The neighbour said it sounded like furniture was being thrown around and then shouting could be heard. That was followed by the sound of sirens. An autopsy and toxicology were being completed on Marr on Friday to help determine his cause of death. – with files from Dan Ferguson
A provincial judge will decide whether or not Langley resident Derek Allenby is guilty in connection with a violent home invasion that included a 56-year-old woman being hit, tied up and her home ransacked on June 27, 2013. Allenby’s trial ended on Monday (Sept. 29) in Surrey Provincial Court . He is charged with forcible confinement, break and enter, assault and several breach charges in connection to the home invasion. A judge will make a decision on Dec. 10. At the time of his arrest, he was released on $75,000 bail. Police believe the suspects were looking for the grow operation or cash revenue from it. The legal grow op had been harvested and removed a week prior to the attack, said police at the time. Langley RCMP along with the Emergency Response Team and Air One descended on the 56-year-old woman’s home in the 24900 block of 72 Avenue after she called 911, saying she had been hit, tied up and her home ransacked. A couple of suspects managed to flee the scene, but Allenby was arrested near the scene. Allenby is what police refer to as a career criminal who has alleged connections to dozens of crimes over the past decade in Langley. Last May, he was arrested in Langley, charged with break and enter, theft over $5,000 and possession of property obtained through crime. He was released that day on $200 bail. He was rearrested on May 30 for breaching his bail, but released again. In 2007, he was arrested in a high profile police chase caught on video. His arrest led to the seizure of numerous stolen vehicles and big construction equipment and containers on a Cloverdale property. At the time of his arrest in 2007, he had just been released from prison.

‘Wild’ ideas welcome, says Langley Field Naturalist From Page 1
Within a few years, they noticed the diversity of plants and wildlife, as well as the number of people visiting the park, had increased significantly. Farr recalled rowing to the centre of the lagoon, towing a raft that would become a resting place for the many species of waterfowl that either reside at Brydon Lagoon or stop there during their migration. When she lowered the raft’s anchor into place, Farr said, it appeared to drop a fair distance. Griffiths, also a past president of LFN, acknowledged that 15 years ago he broke the rules and went out in a boat to measure the pond’s depth in several places. He found depths of between eight and 10 feet. Today, the Field Naturalists estimate the pond is roughly half as deep because of the sediment that is building up on its bottom through the decay of plant life and particles being washed in through storm drains. This build-up, they say, is directly responsible for the deaths of thousands of fish over the August long weekend. During the long spell of hot summer weather, the shallow water quickly reached temperatures too high to support aquatic life, a subsequent independent study found. The lagoon supports several species of fish, including carp, sunfish and three-spined stickleback, as well as frogs, newts, salamanders and turtles. “Much of Brydon Lagoon’s bird life and diversity was a result of fish being there,” wrote Farr in a letter to The Times in August
after the fish died. “Although most were non-native species, these fish supported a large array of native birds. The lack of oxygen/aeration resulting in such a massive fish kill will negatively impact the cormorants, hooded and common mergansers, green and great blue herons, scaups, grebes, kingfishers, visiting osprey and resident pair of nesting bald eagles,” she wrote. In order to improve the pond’s health, what is needed is more shade, deeper water and more efficient mixing of oxygen into the water, said Lisa Dreves, stewardship co-ordinator with the Langley Environmental Partners Society. Dreves spoke to the gathering about water quality in the lagoon, explaining that maintaining appropriate oxygen levels has been particularly challenging because of the growth of algae blooms, which produce oxygen during the day, but consume even more of the life-giving gas during the decaying process. Too much oxygen in the water is as dangerous to the fish as too little, she noted. City engineer Rick Bomhoff, who took part in the walk, said the municipality is looking at buying an underwater bubbler to replace a problematic aeration pump in the lagoon. The pump, which was purchased in 2012 to replace one that had stopped working, was shut down after area residents complained about the noise it made. In an effort to prevent similar catastrophic events to last summer’s fish kill, some have suggested the City look at dredging
the lagoon — a solution that could cost several million dollars. However, opinion is divided on whether dredging would be an appropriate response. One tour member pointed out that because the lagoon was once a sewage settlement pond, there are many contaminants that would be stirred up in the process. Another hurdle is where to dispose of the contaminated soil once it has been removed. Last month, City council agreed that a special committee should be struck to look into the situation at Brydon Lagoon and offer some possible solutions. It will be made up of members of LFN and LEPS, as well as the Nicomekl Enhancement Society and City of Langley representatives. Ducks Unlimited has also agreed to examine the issue and offer suggestions. The committee will be tasked with establishing terms of reference. But the Field Naturalists are casting a much wider net in their search for answers — seeking help from the public at large. “We’re looking for feedback,” Griffiths told the group at the tour’s conclusion. “It can be reasonably wild, because you can ignore such mundane things as money.” If something is important enough, he noted, money can always be found. Anyone who would like to learn more or to offer possible solutions to the issues facing Brydon Lagoon is asked to contact the Langley Field Naturalists through their website at langleyfieldnaturalists.org.

Question langeytimes.com
The discussion over who pays for new schools and how soon they will be built boiled over quickly last week, once word got out that there has been a dramatic shift made in the school construction system. This shift is not at all surprising. School construction is a large capital cost for the provincial government, and Premier Christy Clark has been unusually clear and even blunt — both in her cabinet appointments and her public comments — that every single local government, board, Crown corporation and agency which depends on provincial funding is under the microscope. In the case of school districts, most of them are land and facility-rich and cash-poor. Most have been losing students for years, yet have kept schools open with classrooms only partially full, or have closed buildings for school use but held on to the property. Langley was losing students for more than a decade, but started to grow in recent years as Willoughby began to develop more intensively. The province has funded construction of three elementary and one middle school in Willoughby, but the crunch has hit hardest at the high school level. Even with the Sept. 22 opening of Yorkson Creek Middle School, R.E. Mountain Secondary (now a Grades 9-12 school) is hopelessly overcrowded. A new high school is needed. Yet most high schools in Langley have room for more students. The trouble is, few are anywhere close to Willoughby. The district also owns several buildings which are either closed or severely underutilized. These include County Line, Bradshaw, Aldergrove, James Anderson and Murrayville schools (closed), Otter School (used for an alternative program) and Lochiel School (underutilized for a home schooling program). Together, the value of the land and buildings of these seven schools is in the many millons of dollars. In addition, Willoughby Elementary is located at a very busy intersection and it would likely be best if it could relocate to a somewhat quieter street. That land could be sold or used for a high school. Alternative use of school properties needs to be explored in more detail.

Will the verdict in the Surrey Six trial discourage some young people from getting into drug gangs?
Answer online at www.langleytimes.com
The online effect they
Facebook, and other social media, have played supporting roles in the last few elections. But the 2014 municipal election may be the first where they can be seen to have a direct effect on the outcome. It’s already had a direct effect on one young aspirant to the mayor’s chair, who declared his intention to run Friday morning and withdrew Friday evening, after some inappropriate Facebook posts he made last year came to light. That’s a lesson learned for the young man, and one way social media has already affected the outcome of the Nov. 15 municipal election. Then there is the recent dissolution of the TimeforchangePenticton Facebook page and the resulting development of the Educate Encourage Empower #Penticton group. These are people talking about the change they want to see in politics, which is a good thing and will make them a force on Nov. 15. Still, watching the discussion on both those groups, you see how often opinion gets substituted for fact, and how fast discussions get hijacked or devolve into personal attacks and other forms of abuse. It’s nothing new. This kind of behaviour is a well-known phenomenon for online discussions, dating back to the beginnings of the internet and the old IRC chat channels. In 1990, Mike Godwin jokingly stated what has become known as Godwin’s Law, that if an online discussion goes on long enough, the likelihood of a comparison to Hitler or Nazism becomes inevitable. We’re not suggesting any of these local forums have gone that far, but the lesson here for voters, as social media becomes evermore a source of political information free from checks and balances, is to do your own research. Most importantly, never vote based on someone else’s beliefs and judgements. Learn to separate opinion from fact, and remember that even the most well-meaning people may be sharing inaccurate information. — Penticton Western News

Funds will come for high school project Editor: As the elected MLA for the Willoughby area who has also advocated strongly for a new high school in the community, I would like to comment on The Times article (Oct. 2), regarding the announcement made by our ministry of education, confirming there are no funds available for the project this year. Funding will be available in the future once a proper business case can be made, and is not dependent on any prescribed formula or contribution. While provincial funding is a significant component of any new school construction, the business case includes an assessment of the school district ability to contribute, given their financial and overall asset base. School districts are important stewards of public assets and a close and detailed
examination of their entire asset base is an important part of this business case, as we look at funding options. There are additional and significant conditions that must be met before we can move forward, including site location and land, decisions surrounding multiple items affecting other schools, seismic upgrade considerations and student populations. For the past months, I have worked extensively with both the Langley Board of Education and the Township of Langley on plans for a new high school in Willoughby. Although site details including location and registrant boundaries remain unspecified, the project is very much active. Multiple solutions have been offered and discussed over these last months and
I understand the board is currently exploring these options. Most recently, the ministry of education was asked to work with the Langley Board of Education in an effort to expedite this analysis, ensuring future sustainability as the community grows, while considering affordability. For the past 18 years, as the MLA for Fort Langley/Aldergrove, I have continuously worked to ensure funds and solutions are found for Langley’s schools. Whether for the Betty Gilbert school in the 1990s, the expansion of Walnut Grove Secondary, the two elementary and one middle school on the slope, or the numerous other education projects, I will continue to work for what is best in our community.

Frustration over school funding plans Editor: I left the joint School District 35 and Township of Langley committee meeting on Monday (Sept. 29) feeling frustration. I wanted to speak up and share my concern and some of the information I have just learned regarding this very important issue in our community. You may or may not be aware of the changes made by the province which occurred just recently. They have a drastic effect on how our provincial government funds the building of new schools. I am not privy to all the minute details, but from what I have just learned at our joint committee meeting, the most dramatic change is that now, in order for the province to consider the business case by the school district for new additional schools, the district has to provide 50 per cent of that funding. To use the example of the much-needed new high school on the Willoughby slope, which would be a $60-plus million project, that would mean the district would need to provide $30 million in funding in order for the province to even consider their request. Even at that, they do not guarantee the matching funding will be offered.

‘Angry mom’ running for trustee Willoughby parent Lorraine Baldwin has announced her candidacy for trustee for the Langley Board of Education. She is seeking one of the five Township seats on the board. “Google ‘Lorraine Baldwin’ and ‘Langley’ and you’ll discover my track record of advocacy for Langley’s children,” she said. “As a parent and a person concerned about those who have been marginalized, I cannot stand back and let this story unfold the way it is.

Even though you clearly didn’t allow them to drive your car (quite the opposite), the law says as owner you too are liable to the innocent car crash victim.
But as the car’s owner, you’re on the hook for any injuries or losses caused by a driver of your car:

Former Langley Township councillor Mel Kositsky is contesting the Nov. 15 election as an independent candidate for councillor. He ran for mayor in 2011, placing second to winning candidate Jack Froese. Kositsky, a member of Township council for 18 years from 1993-2011 and dedicated community volunteer, says this election is a turning point for local governments in B.C., with the clear message from other levels of governments that there are limited resources coming in the future. “Doing more with less is a priority as Langley residents have reached the boiling point when it comes to taxation levels, user fees and tolls.

Nestled on the corner of Church Street and Mavis Avenue in Fort Langley, Shear Splendor is a funky boutique style salon that opened at the end of August. Owner operator Allison Fisher has worked in the hair industry for nine years but Shear Splendor is a brand new venture for her. The salon opened in the new Reid Block Building which was the location of the Reid Garage; a fixture in Fort Langley in days gone by. A plaque on the wall attests to the location’s rich history. Perhaps you’ve just moved here and though you loved your previous stylist, it’s a long drive to your appointments. If this is so, why not give Allison and her talented staff a try. You will not be disappointed.
The salon is a full service hair boutique and also offers a full range of spa services designed to pamper you. “Our goal is to make your beauty shine from head to toe”, said Allison. She specializes in curly hair and because she has curly hair herself she understands how curls work. Allison cuts curly hair differently so your curls will be your ally and not your adversary. She loves doing colour as well and the colour bar at Shear Splendor is extensive. Make sure to mark your calendar because there are two very important dates coming up for Shear Splendor and Fort Langley. On November 1st the Salon will have its grand opening celebration. They will be celebrating with mini services, specials and prize draws. But before that is Fort Langley’s Cranberry Festival on October 11th and Shear Splendor will be a part of the celebration. All day long the staff will be offering mini services including bang trims, mini manicures, massages and more. In addition there will be prize draws too. Are you getting married? This is the place for you and your bridal party to prepare for your big day. Allison and her staff know that you have enough to worry about so they will take care of every detail to prepare you for your special day.

THE VOICE OF BUSINESS PRESIDENT’S REPORT
Welcome to Our Fall Programs!
S
ince participating in the Board Planning Retreat in July, the Board of Directors and Committee Chairs have been meeting to plan and coordinate our activity for this term with a focus on member engagement, improving member services and advocating for change to government regulations and taxation affecting business. The Advocacy Committee is seeking input from the membership for additional issues that we can research, make recommendations for change and advance to any level of government – municipal, regional, provincial or federal. Please contact Executive Director Lynn Whitehouse at the Chamber Office with your issue. We do ask that you include your name and contact information in case the committee requires more information or clarification input from you on the topic. Your information will be kept confidential and the recommendations will be advanced as a Greater Langley Chamber of Commerce issue. Vice-President Scott Johnston and I will travel to Charlottetown, PEI to attend the Canadian Chamber of Commerce AGM & Conference where we will participate in the policy sessions to form the national advocacy agenda for Canadian businesses and communities. Of particular interest will be the introduction of the resolution calling for improved navigation and flood control on the Fraser River that was submitted by 14 lower mainland chambers, including Langley. A copy of this resolution will be posted on our website on our return following the meetings. For the next couple of months we will be focusing on the 2014 municipal elections and our ‘Your Voice – Your Vote’ campaign aimed to increase voter engagement and turnout at the polls. While businesses themselves do not have a vote, we want to encourage you to actively participate in the process by engaging in dialogue with your employees regarding the importance of the election process, the role it plays for our local economy and impact on the business climate. Please help encourage your employees to understand the challenges our

communities are facing currently and in the next few years as we experience a significant amount of development and population growth demands. I encourage you to help them visualize the business aspect of the issues in addition to the personal aspects. A strong business climate helps ensure success of the whole community. The Board has scheduled a number of Candidates Meetings to provide an opportunity to meet directly with the candidates for Mayor and Councillor in both the City and the Township of Langley. The format is still being determined as we need to modify according to the number of candidates running and our time constraints. I would like to specifically draw your attention to the date of the October meeting, being one week earlier October 14, 2014, just following Thanksgiving. This resolves the conflict with the Celebration of Excellence. This meeting will feature the candidates running for Mayor in both the City and the Township. Please also note, that due to the date change, the location has also been changed to the Langley Golf & Banquet Centre at 216th St. and 44th Ave. Please be sure to schedule the new date and location in your calendars! We strongly request that all members submit your suggestions for topics or questions to be presented to the candidates at the meetings. These meetings are organized for the benefit of members to hear from the candidates and understand their opinions on specific topics. Next month is also Small Business Month in British Columbia and we have a number of unique programs scheduled. On Thursday October 9 in partnership with the Fraser Valley Chambers and Public Works and Government Services Canada we will host the first Small Business Expo at the Langley Event Centre. This is a free tradeshow that brings various government departments and organizations that support small businesses through funding, training and various other resources. There are many programs available that can often help you get the extra help you need, and possibly help someone else find employment or training. I encourage you to take the time to attend this unique opportunity to meet with numerous service providers. On Wednesday October 22 we will recognize outstanding businesses and business people in our community at the annual Celebration of Excellence. This is a very special evening where nominees will be presented plaques in recognition of their nomination, and the Business Excellence Awards will be presented to the finalist in each category. The agenda includes a cocktail reception, gourmet dining, entertainment and incredible dÊcor to make it a memorable event for all who attend. We could not host such a gala without the generous support of our many sponsors to whom we are extremely grateful. We encourage our members to join us for this very special evening – please contact the Chamber Office for tickets or more information! Kristine Simpson, President

After pursuing an education in business and marketing, Doris decided to carry on the family tradition and opened Doris’ European Delicacies, a European-style deli specializing in German sausages and smoked meats, in 2004. Doris attributes the success of her deli to providing fresh food in a clean environment, delivering efficient, friendly customer service and having good organization and management skills. “When customers are happy, we are happy – which is success in itself,” says Doris.

About 90 per cent of the meat products are made by her brother’s company, Helmut’s Sausage Kitchen, in Vernon, and the other meats offered are from only three other quality European sausage makers in the Lower Mainland.

Pastry Papa
K
itchen Manager David Chen trained under Chef Jack at the Pacific Academy of Culinary Arts and told me that his cooking style is fusion; he loves to experiment with different cultural dishes and put his unique spin on them, but his baking style is French. For desert, he offered me a selection of French macaroons accompanied by his new summer creation; Summer Breeze. The macaroons were delicious. The first one I tried was called a salty caramel and it was delightful. It started off with a subtle flavor which grew and flourished in my mouth. The salty
5780 P RO D U C TO N WAY. , L A N G L E Y
flavor came almost an afterthought as the delicious treat melted in my mouth. David explained to me that most of the food and pastries prepared here are made from scratch and are free from additives. He told me with pride that the croissants, a signature item, are made with real butter. In fact absolutely none of his bakery items are made with margarine. It’s butter all the way! He let me sample a croissant and I could see what he meant. The croissant was light as a feather and very buttery in flavour.
They serve four different kinds including ham and Swiss cheese, chocolate, almond and plain. I took a plain and an almond one home, my husband doesn’t usually like croissants, but he proclaimed this was the best he had ever tasted and asked when I was going to pick up some more. The restaurant serves a nice variety of soups and sandwiches that are all made from scratch. The portions are huge and one sandwich could easily serve two people. - Lilliane Fuller 604.534.0630

Hilltop Diner
A
ndrea Zaiser and her husband Rod moved to the Langley area in 2009 and quickly became regulars at the Hilltop Diner. Andrea had been looking for a business venture and this little gem fit the bill quite nicely. Andrea left her name and number with the owner and suggested if they ever wished to retire, they should give her a call. Three months later that call came. By then she had already talked her sister into joining her if the opportunity presented itself. Sandie Parley was looking for something different to see her into her retirement. Andrea just wanted to have something of her own. And after all, how hard
could it be to run a small restaurant? Well, three-and-a-half years later, the girls know how hard it is. And they know how satisfying it is to get up every day and work for yourself. The sisters say the keys to Hilltop Diner’s success is excellent service combined with amazing food. One without the other will not work. Their loyal customers have kept them going from the very beginning. For the past 67 years the Hilltop Diner has been serving up comfort food. This family-owned diner right smack between Langley and Aldergrove, has become a local legend. The food is simple, the smiles genuine and the

atnam Randhawa. had a dream of turning the 100 year old rundown “Spy Castle” building into a thriving pub. But when Satnam was killed in a car accident while on a charity trip to India in 2008, his plans came to a sudden halt. His family wanted to bring their fathers dream to completion, so in November 2009 the doors to Baron’s Manor Pub opened, and Satnam’s dream was finally realized. The old Henry Kells property was known as the “Spy Castle” after it was purchased by Baron Carl von Mackensen in the early 1900’s and a turreted castle-like tower
was built on the south side. The house was notorious for its lavish parties and residents grew suspicious that Von Mackensen was a German spy. Allegedly, an underground tunnel was built from the home to the Fraser River and a radio room was located at the top of the tower for Von Mackensen to communicate with German ships off the Vancouver coast. The Canadian government agreed with local suspicions, and Von Mackensen was interned at a camp in Vernon during the First World War and eventually deported back to Germany in 1919. Brothers Sarb and

Veggie smoothies which were recently added to our menu are fast becoming customer favorites! An added benefit is that any of our smoothies can be made dairy free and we have several gluten free snacks as well. The “Boost” in Booster Juice is the added nutritional or herbal supplement you can choose to add to your smoothie. People love adding a bit of Energy if they need a boost or a Warrior to help fight off those colds. We don’t just sell smoothies! We sell tasty paninis and wraps as well, which when combined with a smoothie make a great meal. We also have unique products such as wheatgrass shots and a rather exotic Brazil-

It is important to us to be a part of the local community and we are proud to offer fundraising vouchers for school, community groups or non-profit groups looking to raise money. Therefore we offer a program in which groups pay just $3.75 per voucher (a voucher can be redeemed for a Regular smoothie) and sell them for a suggested price of $5.00 so that your fundraising group can make $1.25 profit per coupon sold. That’s a 33% return so the funds add up quickly. We are going mobile and are excited about our new Booster Juice truck which can be booked for your next event.

Jim’s Pizza S
hawn Anderson started work for Jim’s Pizza as a delivery driver. He later began learning how to create pizzas of the quality customers would expect when ordering from Jim’s. After six years of experiencing the quality – starting with daily operation – the previous owner presented Shawn with the opportunity to take over the business as he was looking to relocate. Shawn says the key to Jim's Pizza success is the belief that their customers deserve more than just a pizza. Like any great recipe there are a few key elements to combine in order to stand apart from the rest. Jim’s Pizza makes every pizza fresh starting with rolling out dough for each order, not just saucing pre-stretched dough and adding toppings. Shawn believes customers deserve quality. However food quality is only part of the equation at Jim’s. They understand that, even though you might be dining in your own home or work place, customer service needs to be

friendly and efficient as well. After all that’s what customers expect when they go out for a meal. Shawn feels the keys to a successful restaurant are great food, a friendly staff and a reasonable cost. So, what sets Jim’s Pizza apart from other pizza joints? Shawn says the most successful way to create a long term customer to offer the quality of food you would only provide for your family and close friends. At Jim’s they welcome customers as if they were long-term neighbours and not just another customer. Although it takes longer to prepare everyone’s order, Shawn believes each order needs to be made to order. After all, if you wanted a prepared meal, our local grocers have plenty of selection in the frozen food isle. “Food is a work of art, and can only be truly enjoyed when the person preparing it has a passion,” says Shawn. “We believe in using quality ingredients including using real bacon and not an imitation.

Caine seeks City mayor’s job DA N FERGU SO N Tim e s Re po r t e r
Randy Caine, a well-know medical marijuana activist who has occasionally run afoul of the law, is running for mayor of Langley City. “I feel that I have a lot to contribute,” Caine told The Times on Monday. Caine is a City resident who operated a medicinal marijuana dispensary that was opposed by Langley City council and closed down by police in July of 2011. The charge against Caine, one count of possession of marijuana for the purpose of trafficking, was dropped last year.

Lisa Moore running for trustee in Langley Township Lisa Moore, a Brookswood resident, has decided after many years of advocating for special needs children to run for the Langley Board of Education. She is seeking one of the five positions in Langley Township. After being a single mother for many years, and in recent years adopting three special needs children to join her other two biological children, to make a family of five, she has a lot of experience with the current school system. She has seen the joys of her children learning and growing but has also expe-
rienced the frustration of over-crowded classrooms, competing for support with other special needs children, and a need for more special needs assistants. She has experienced a lack of resources in regards to accessing psychologists for assessments, school counsellors, greater speech therapy hours, increased special needs assistant hours and before and after school care for all of her children. She has been the vice-president of the Belmont Elementary PAC for the past two years, and she has been astonished to see
how many resources are being paid for by the parents of the children who attend Langley schools. There have been fundraisers for laptops, projectors, iPads, cameras, basic toys, books and educational material. “The most outstanding issue facing most Langley schools is the need for new playgrounds that are being deemed as dangerous and being removed from schools. Parents and the community are the
LISA M OOR E
ones faced with replacing these basic and fundamental outdoor structures for children to play, grow and laugh with each other. Langley School District has no money and no intention of replacing any of this capital equipment,� she said. She can be reached through a Facebook page entitled “Vote Lisa Moore School Trustee - Township of Langley� (https://www.facebook.com/Votelisamoore) and via email at ldmoore@telus.net.
Caine dares to utter A-word from Page 27
to hire two 24-passenger buses which will carry voters to the polls for free, no matter who they happen to support. “You don’t have to vote for me, just get out and vote.� Caine’s number two issue is preservation of historic buildings in the city and number three is the amalgamation of Langley City and Township. “I believe that open and honest community dialogue on this matter [amalgamation] is long overdue,� Caine’s online platform says. After the top three, Caine lists additional priorities, including homelessness, “sensible drug policies including harm reduction and support� and “medical marijuana access.� Caine says he will be working with some other, yet-to-announce council candidates, but he describes the association as an informal arrangement to share information and experience, not a slate. “I don’t approve of them [political slates] at all,� Caine said.

Open mic nights are back THE STAGE IS SET AT FROSTING ON THE FIRST AND THIRD TUESDAY OF EACH MONTH BR EN D A AND E R SO N Times Re po r t e r
Do you have a song that won’t stop spinning around your head? Lines of slam poetry trying desperately to beat their way out of your chest? A story that demands to be told? There’s a place for all that, and a whole lot more. After a summer hiatus, open mic nights at Frosting Cupcakery have returned for another season. And organizer Sandy Dunkley is looking forward to seeing the Fraser Highway bake shop fill up once again with aspiring singers, storytellers, poets — anyone with a talent they want to share — as well as with those who prefer to sit back and be entertained. “We wanted it to be different, in that it’s not just music,” said Dunkley, a songwriter herself. Each evening begins with a performance by an experienced musician or group — usually members of Dunkley’s non-profit talent agency, Just Great Sights ‘n’ Sounds. After that, the stage belongs to anyone — from children to seniors, beginners to established artists — who wishes to perform. It doesn’t matter whether the material is original or has been made famous by somebody else — as long as it’s family-friendly. “It has to be something we’re all comfortable with. “We’ve had a seniors band, a lot of short stories, poetry, kids — everything we wanted, we got,” said Dunkley, who, joined by local arts enthusiasts Rosemary Wallace and Michelle Drumfoot, approached Frosting Cupcakery owners Craig and Melanie McDougall about hosting a twice-monthly showcase The couple was only too pleased to get on board, she said, offering their space at no charge and providing free cupcakes to everyone brave enough to step on stage and entertain their patrons. The events, which began on Feb. 18, grew quickly and drew large crowds, said Dunkley. It got to the point that the show was running overtime to accommodate everyone who wanted to participate. Then they hit pause. “The downtown had so much going on during the summer,” said Dunkley, explaining why she decided to suspend the open mic nights for a couple months. The downside of the break, she said, is that the event seemed to lose a bit of its momentum.
R OS E M A RY WA LLA C E Su bmitte d pho to
After a summer hiatus, singers, poets, storytellers and more are once again welcome on stage at Frosting Cupcakery on the first and third Tuesday of each month. The free, family-friendly open mic nights run from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. She’s hoping that now that autumn has arrived, people will begin filling the seats and the sign-up sheet once again. The mic is open on the first and third Tuesday of the month, from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. There are a couple reasons for the early start, said Dunkley. The first is to encourage people who work or shop downtown to stop in at the end of the day to have a bite and take in a bit of live entertainment. The other is to make it an event, where parents can bring younger children without keeping them out past their bedtime. Since the very first open mic night, technician Dave Mercer has volunteered his services to help the performers sound their best, said an appreciative Dunkley, who has also been on hand each event night to ensure everything runs smoothly. It’s a big commitment, so she is always on
the lookout for people who would like to help out and share the load. Of course, none of it would be possible without a place to perform, said Dunkley. It doesn’t come as a surprise to her that the McDougalls would provide their space. “Everything that goes on in the City, they’re there with their cupcakes — for free. They’re always helping out. That’s what they do,” she said. Community involvement was always part of the plan when the couple opened their business, said Craig McDougall. “It’s important to us to not just run a business, but to reach out wherever we can,” he said. One of the benefits of hosting open mic nights two Tuesdays a month, is that Langley families and people with limited incomes can get out and enjoy a local event at little or no cost, said McDougall.
Whether people come in and have a coffee or just sit and listen, that’s fine, he said. And it’s not impossible that visitors to Frosting will find themselves being entertained by their host one of these Tuesdays. “My wife bought me a guitar for my 40th birthday,” said McDougall, admitting he’s long had aspirations of being a singer. The one hurdle, he said, is that his strumming might not yet be up to snuff. But, if he can find a partner, he fully expects to be on stage one evening in the not-too-distant future. “I would definitely sing if I could find someone to accompany me.” The next open mic night happens tonight (Tuesday, Oct. 7) at 6 p.m. Anyone who would like to perform is encouraged to arrive by 5:45 and sign up for a spot. Frosting Cupcakery is located at 20411 Fraser Hwy.

NEWS SCHOOL DISTRICT NEWS WORKING TOGETHER FOR STUDENT SUCCESS
604-534-7891 • www.sd35.bc.ca
Tim Everson, proud principal of the new Yorkson Creek Middle School, welcomes students and staff as he walked the hallways on opening day.
Can you film it in 50? SLT’S 50-HOUR CHALLENGE RETURNS
Surrey Little Theatre is calling all filmmakers and creative individuals to register a team in the seventh annual 50-Hour Film Challenge, an all ages event where teams write, shoot and edit a five-minute film for a chance to win $500. In the past, team members have ranged in age from as young as 12 years old to retired baby boomers. The challenge weekend starts on Friday, Oct. 17 at 6 p.m., when team representatives will meet at Surrey Little Theatre to receive their randomly selected “inspiration package.” Over the course of the following 50 hours, the team of five or more people will head out to various locations throughout the Lower Mainland to write, shoot and edit a five-minute film that will include all the chosen surprise elements. On Sunday, Oct. 19 at 8 p.m. the teams will bring in their finished product to Surrey Little Theatre for a chance at prizes including a Best Film top prize of $500. Prizes will be awarded the follow-
ing weekend on Sunday, Oct. 26 at a gala filmmakers reception with public screenings of all the films. Screening tickets are limited and will be sold in advance. “The challenge is similar to the popular 48-hour film challenge format with the addition of an extra two hours,” said event organizer, Brigitte Seib. “The concept began six years ago as a new initiative during Surrey Little Theatre’s 50th Season of Live Theatre – From Onstage to Onscreen. The 50-Hour Film Challenge was a huge success and it gives the community another avenue in addition to our regular season of live theatre to express their creative side. “We welcome all community members to put together a five or more member team, dig out their camera equipment and editing software and come on out to take part.” Registration deadline is Oct. 14. Entry fee is $100 per team. Teams that register by Oct. 3 will receive two free tickets to the screenings.
Yorkson Creek Middle School Opens to Students The day may have been dreary but there was definitely a buzz in the air as the doors opened to students for the first time at Yorkson Creek Middle School on Monday, September 22nd. Class lists were posted under the covered entrance way and once students found their name and classroom number they hustled through the front doors to see their new school for the first time. Many students and parents chorused ‘oohs and ahhs’ as they walked the shiny halls, peeked

Weekend yields mixed results

Nanaimo Clippers goaltender Guillaume Decelles sends Langley Rivermen’s Evan Anderson flying during first period action on Saturday at the Langley Events Centre. Decelles was on top of his game, making 31 saves in the Clippers 3-2 double overtime victory.
Three games in less than 72 hours resulted in three points for the Langley Rivermen. The junior A hockey club started with a 5-4 victory over the Coquitlam Express, but then lost 3-2 in double overtime to the Nanaimo Clippers and then 3-1 in regulation to the Surrey Eagles to wrap up a whirlwind weekend. Langley is third in the BCHL’s Mainland Division at 2-3-0-1. The Clippers game was also the home opener for the Rivermen at the Langley Events Centre and the 3,000-plus fans were treated to some end-to-end action in the second overtime, which features the teams playing three-on-three. “It was exciting back-and-forth hockey,” said Langley assistant coach Kurt Astle. “That’s what the fans came to see. “I thought our guys generated opportunities, but it came down to execution and their goalie stood on his head and I tip my hat to him. “We were on the wrong side of a few unlucky bounces.” Twice in the three-on-three over-
time, the Rivermen were in all alone on Nanaimo goaltender Guillaume Decelles. He stoned Evan Anderson on the first chance, and on the second, Gage Torrel pinged the puck off the crossbar. And with less than 30 seconds to play in the game, Nanaimo’s Sheldon Rempal scored off a scramble in front of Rivermen goalie Bo Didur to get the visitors the extra point. Didur was called into action in the first minute of the third after Darren Martin was helped off the ice. Martin hurt his leg in a goal-mouth collision. Didur stopped 20 of the 21 shots he faced. The offence came from Will Cook, on the game’s opening shift, and Brendan Gulka, who scored a short-handed goal. Against Surrey the next afternoon at the South Surrey Arena, Ryan Coulter had the lone Langley goal in the 3-1 defeat. In Coquitlam on Friday night, Torrel had a pair of goals and an assist while Kevan Kilistoff and Jake Zeleznikar had two points apiece. Didur stopped 28 shots for the win.
Spartans take pair from Timberwolves FIRST-PLACE SHOWDOWN ON FRIDAY AS TWU HOSTS UVIC AT ROGERS FIELD A trip to Prince George was good for one Spartans soccer team, but not for the other. The Trinity Western Spartans women’s soccer team — ranked No. 1 in Canada — improved to 7-0-1 on the season after winning 2-0 and 4-1 over the UNBC Timberwolves over the weekend. The Spartan men were not as successful, losing 5-3 and 1-0. In the first game on Saturday afternoon, Alessandra Oliverio and Krista Gommeringer scored second-half goals while Christina Oliverio stopped all three UNBC shots on goal. Sunday’s contest saw the teams tied at one at the half before Gommeringer,
Isabella Di Trocchio and Vanessa Wiebe struck for second-half goals. Jenna Di Nunzio had opened the scoring for the Langley visitors. The Spartans fired 30 shots at the UNBC net, with 18 hitting the target. “It is a good corporate win and overall I’m quite pleased with the result. Credit to UNBC they made the game tricky when they scored to equalize. Our midfield was excellent in the first half in their ability to possess and control the ball, but we just got sloppy and casual which resulted in their goal,” commented TWU head coach Graham Roxburgh. “At half time we challenged them to play with more urgency, which I’m pleased that they did, but we
are going to need to be better.” “Gommeringer continues to show why she is so good. Her ability to create chances and generate opportunities for us is superb, but couple that with her work rate makes her awesome,” added Roxburgh. The Spartans face a big test this weekend as they host the UVic Vikes on Friday at Rogers Field and the UBC Thunderbirds on Saturday. The Vikes are tied with TWU at 7-0-1 for top spot in the Canada West Pacific Division. The Trinity Western men’s team will also host UVic and UBC this weekend as the Spartans look to get back in the win column and improve their 3-4-1 conference record. “Today was one of those games where we completely dominated play, but didn’t get any value in front of the net,” com-
mented coach Pat Rohla, following Sunday’s defeat. “Our first half was one of our best of the year and we can be happy with our performance, but it was one of those situations where if you don’t finish, you don’t win.” UNBC keeper Ty Venhola made 15 saves to secure the win with the lone goal coming in the 86th minute. The previous game saw goals come at a rapid pace with the teams tied at three after the 59th minute. Dominic Reinold and Jarvis Ambaka had the first and third goals, respectively, while the second was an own-goal of a Kalem Scott shot which a UNBC deflected into the net. The Timberwolves would score twice in less than three minutes to take the lead for good.

Redwoods’ Morgan wins club pro title A birdie on the 17th hole sealed victory for Doug Morgan. Morgan, the head professional at Redwoods Golf Course, captured the 2014 Cleveland Golf/Sri-
xon Canada PGA of B.C. Club Professional Championship. The two-day tournament wrapped up on Oct. 1 at the Seymour Golf and Country Club.

Redwoods Golf Course’s Doug Morgan captured the 2014 Cleveland Golf/Srixon Canada PGA of BC Club Professional championship last week.
online langleytimes.com
Morgan shot an opening round 69 for a one-stroke lead and then shot an even-par 72 on the second day to finish with a 3-under 141. Bill Kelly (Glacier Greens Golf Club) and Kevin Maxwell (Olympic View Golf Club) finished in a tie for second place. He won by three strokes and was the lone golfer to shoot below par. “I played well coming down the stretch,” said Morgan. “I made a great putt on fourteen (to take the lead) and then gave myself chances at fifteen and sixteen. “The birdie on seventeen was a nice cushion, then on eighteen I just played safe for par, taking the left side out of play.” Morgan also won championship titles in both 2009 and 2010.

Health Matters
It would be easy to blame the growing rate of cancer on our increased life span and improved treatments/cures of previously deadly diseases, but the fact of the matter is that about half of all cancers are preventable! Smoking leads the charge and is estimated to be responsible for about 20 per cent of cancer. Cancer is the world leading cause of death and the only way we are going to win that battle is with prevention! Preventable cancers tend to be caused by one (or more!) of several lifestyle choices: tobacco use, alcohol use, being overweight or obese, and not exercising. Tobacco harm is not restricted to smoking; other forms, such as chewing tobacco, are also damaging. Even low alcohol consumption (one small drink per day) is associated with risk and lack of exercise is not only a factor in being overweight (along with diet) but a risk in its own right. Many people are taking a daily low-dose ASA tablet daily to help prevent a heart attack or stroke, but now a researcher from the Yale School of Public Health may have found that this same daily dose can help reduce
the risk of pancreatic cancer. The reduction was about six per cent for each year of regular ASA use. ASA is not without its own side-effects and this is not considered a BOB SANGHA reason to start taking it, but Pharmacist, BSc it’s good to know it’s not doing more harm – and may, in fact, be helping. Mammogram screening has come under scrutiny – with oft-cited risks of radiation exposure and the stress of false positives/negatives. Now, the US Preventive Services Task Force is suggesting another reason for reviewing mammogram use: cost-effectiveness. They suggest that broad-based annual screening from age 40 is unnecessary and a more targeted system will result in substantial health care savings without increased morbidity/mortality. October is Breast Cancer Awareness month. Get involved in the fight against breast cancer through donation, volunteering, fundraising, or raising awareness. “Support the girls!”

The Knights (4-3-0-0) and Kodiaks (3-3-1-1) and are tied for second spot in the Harold Brittain Conference at eight points, one back of Abbotsford.
