Charity raises spring appeal

By Jennifer LangAn organization that helps some of

Surrey’s most vulnerable residents start new lives is now reaching out for help.

With spring cleaning season in full swing, Eversafe Ranch has launched an urgent appeal for donations of gently-used items that will help women and children leaving shelters furnish their new homes.

“We need furniture, small appliances, tea kettles, coff ee makers, microwaves – things that are in good working condition,” said Judy Daser, who founded Eversafe Ranch with her husband, Alan, in 2008.

Th e charity provides free furniture and household items to families making the transition from shelters and secondary housing – mostly women fl eeing abuse, and their children.

Th ey move two to three families in Surrey, White Rock, Langley and Delta, each week, at no charge.

Th e people are referrals from Atira Women’s Resource Society, the Surrey Association for Community Living, Metis Family Services, Work BC, local

churches and word of mouth.“We’re not even touching the need,”

Judy said, adding they get calls from as far away New Westminster and Vancou-ver. “We don’t go that far. Th ere’s nobody else doing this.”

Alan Daser, who works full time, drives the truck (itself a donation from

Union Gospel Mission) and delivers the furniture and goods, along with a volun-teer. Judy joined them on a recent job helping a mother and her son move into a new residence.

“It was an empty apart-ment,” Judy said. “She had nothing. She was starting with nothing.”

Th eir mission has grown from hosting informal bar-becues in a neighbourhood

alleyway in north Surrey where they gave away clothing and household items into a registered charity that operates a thriv-ing Cloverdale thrift shop at 5641 176A Street to support initiatives.

Items are priced to remain within reach to people on fi xed incomes, such as seniors and the working poor. It’s a hive

and father in their Wil-loughby home.

Providing a unique serviceof activity that attracts regulars of every descrip-tion.

“You get to talk, and you hear their life stories,” Judy said, describing a wide-ranging clientele that includes single parents, savvy bargain hunters, homeless people, and Cloverdale residents on fi xed incomes.

“Th ey don’t have a lot of money. It’s tough for them. I hear it a lot,” she said. “People who are homeless – we just give them what they need.”

Th e store doesn’t make much money, once the rent and bills are paid. “It just helps us reach more people.”

A crowd-funding web page (www.gofundme.com/eversafe) has been set up to help Eversafe reach its goals. Big ticket items are a 22-seat bus to transport families to their dinners and community events, such as the Christmas dinner that hosted more than 100 people, and a new sign for the thrift store.

Th e expansive Surrey property they were leas-ing is being re-developed, so Eversafe is looking for space elsewhere to host its picnics and family fun days and re-open Doolittle’s Animal Rescue.

On a smaller scale, the Dasers are also hoping to send at least 30 children who are currently living in shelters or secondary housing to recreation pro-grams this summer.

“You would be surprised to see just how many children are living in shelters in Surrey,” Judy said.

Heather Woolley of Atira Women’s Resources Society said the Dasers provide a unique service to the clients and to social service agencies like theirs, which operates transition houses and secondary housing complexes, including six in Surrey.

“We don’t have facilities or trucks or storage, so [Eversafe] does all that for us,” Woolley said. “When someone’s leaving one of our shelters, they provide them with furniture, household goods, food, cloth-ing – everything they need to set up their home.”

Th e need is vast. “We had 8,000 women and chil-dren through our program last year,” she said.

Last year the charity provided Christmas ham-pers and gift s for the kids and some of the moms, in addition to hosting an evening with Santa and a Th anksgiving dinner – helping spread good cheer to people who wouldn’t qualify for other programs because they lacked an address, Woolley added.

“We are so grateful for Alan and Judy and their group for what they do for our women.”

Items needed include:• Small household appliances such as toasters,

microwaves and coff ee makers

• Gently-used furniture (couches, tables, bed frames, lamps)

• Linens, towels, dishes and cleaning supplies• Non-perishable food items for welcome

baskets• Women’s business attire• Gently-used children’s bikesVolunteers are also needed: call 604-341-1503 for

more information.

Excelling at anything usually takes practice – and that’s also true for a positive mental attitude

Roger Crick and Sten Christiansen of the

Fraser Valley Heritage Railway Society take a well-deserved breather

last week at Clover-dale Station. They’re

part of a volunteer crew planting the

foundation of a land-scaping project for

the site designed by Kwantlen Polytechnic University’s horticul-

ture department.The Cloverdale branch

of Scotiabank, BC Hydro and Potter’s are

also supporting the landscaping project.

The railway’s summer season starts May 11.

Think of the most positive person you know. What does their life look like

to you? Do they seem to look at the world through rose-tinted glasses? Are they happy all of the time? Perhaps you believe that they can live that way but that it’s impossible for you. If this is the case, you may be under the com-mon misconception that being positive means being happy. Th is is simply untrue.

People tend to believe that positivity equals happiness. If you lived in a bubble maybe that would be the case. However, for those of us who live in the real world, positivity and happiness are not mutually inclusive. Th ey simply do not always go hand in hand.

I am a positive person. I also tend to be a happy person. Sometimes though, life gets in the way of my feeling happy. I’m human, and therefore prone to all sorts of struggles and encoun-ters that can make me feel sad, angry, and other feelings. Th e

thing you need to understand is that happiness is an emotion. Being positive is a state of mind. It’s a mindset; a practice even. It can even be seen as a skill; one that anyone can learn.

If you want to excel at any-thing in life it usually takes practice. Th e practice of being positive is no diff erent. You have to apply certain principles and habits in order to be a positive person. Th ings like watching the words you say about yourself and others can make a big diff erence. So can monitoring your moods, choosing uplift ing music, and watching funny tele-vision shows. Th ese things can contribute to a positive outlook on life. Th e more of these sorts of things you do on a regular basis the easier you will fi nd it to be positive overall.

Th ink of your life as a storage container. What you fi ll your container with eff ects how you feel about yourself, your life and everything you encounter. If you fi ll it with negative things, you

will feel negative about pretty much everything. If you clear out even a bit of that negativity, you will make room for more positive things and feelings. Th e trick is you need to clear out some of that junk fi rst. You can’t fi ll an already full tank.

Th is may seem a bit overwhelming but remember, small changes make way for bigger ones. If you take just a tiny step forward, you will already be in a diff erent place than when you started. Th ink of this as practice. Practicing positive is a sure-fi re way to improve your quality of life. It can reduce your stress level and increase your ability to cope with tough times. It can also allow you to feel happier more oft en.

Sometimes we encounter adversity. Life sometimes hands

us things that are out of our control. When a person is in the habit of practicing positivity they will still feel sadness, anger

or bitterness. Th e diff erence is the level of impact that these unfortunate experi-ences have on us.

For example, if you are generally negative, something like the loss of a job can send you reeling out of control into depression. But if you are positive, the same experience can empower you

to move forward more quickly. Th at mindset can help you to see the good in a situation, or propel you to take action that you wouldn’t have before. So make it your goal to fi nd ways to be more positive every day. You will surely benefi t from it and so will everyone around you.– Dawn Carson is an author and public

speaker who lives in Cloverdale.

By Kevin DiakiwTh e fate of a New-

ton strip mall remains unknown aft er the pro-vincial lottery agency announced it will pull the plug on 150 slot machines there in mid-May.

However,  Fraser Downs Racetrack and Casino is one possible location for those one-armed bandits, accord-ing to Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts.

Late last month, the BC Lottery Corpora-tion (BCLC) decided it will remove the slots from the Newton Country Bingo Hall at 7093 King George Blvd., saying there was no longer a business case to keep them there.

It came on the heels of a City of Surrey initiative to have them removed, citing blown construction deadlines, a claim that BCLC and Gateway Casinos and Entertainment Ltd. denied.

Now that the slots are gone, a planned redevelopment of the site worth more than $20 million is on hold, perhaps permanently. Gateway, which owns the property, says its business case is much diff erent without the gaming component.

And while BCLC has pulled the slots, Gateway still holds the provincial license to run 150 slot machines. Th e company will be looking for a place to activate those.

Asked if a spot in

Surrey or the sur-rounding area is being considered, Gateway spokesperson Tanya Gabara said it’s far too early to tell.

“Obviously now we have to reevaluate what we’re going to do moving forward. We still have the license,” Gabara said, adding a move is likely in the offi ng. “Too early to say what would happen.”

However, Watts said the only place she’d consider adding the slots right now would be to Fraser Downs Racetrack and Casino, at 17755 60 Ave.

Watts mentioned to Gateway three weeks ago that Fraser Downs was a viable alternative.

“(Fraser Downs) is still under-utilized, and it’s still under-built,” Watts said.

“If there’s any op-portunity in the city, that would be an op-portunity that would be reviewed.”

She said the fact Great Canadian Casino already owns the casino there is not an impedi-ment.

“If you look at Las Vegas, there are casinos that co-exist with one another,” Watts said Wednesday.

Gateway said its fi rst order of business is to take care of the employ-ees to try to minimize the impact on them.

Gabara said there are 50 employees working at the Newton facility, and it’s unclear how many won’t be needed once the slots are gone.

Th e pending removal of slot machines is the latest in a long gaming narrative in Newton that stretches back nearly two decades.

Slots were approved at the Newton site in 2009. Subsequently, the

company that won the rezoning later fl ipped the property to Gate-way and the promise

of $25 million worth of improvements on the property died with the change in ownership.

Gateway had promised near that investment, but has now shelved plans aft er BCLC pulled

the slots.Watts said she is un-

sure what will happen with the existing New-

ton property if Gateway decides against redevel-oping it.

Student works stretch the mindBy Jennifer LangA lot can happen in

Ninety-Seven Days, a name that takes its cue from the length of the university semester.

Cloverdale’s Alana Williams and Cale Guy are two of 13 students whose work is featured in Kwantlen Polytech-nic University’s 2014 fi ne arts grad exhibit, on view April 11 to 13 at the trades and technol-ogy campus.

Th e artists were asked to create, manipulate and explore themselves and the world around them in order to tell sto-ries through their art.

Th e works included in the exhibit run the gamut, from self por-traits and digital fi lms to pieces that incorpo-rate technology.

Williams paints vivid landscapes and animals. Her work is focused on the natural world, mainly the natural land-scape of the B.C. inte-rior, she says.

Th rough her work, she aims to bring atten-tion to the issue of farm animal welfare; her

family makes its living in the cattle industry.

“I want to inspire a diff erent way of think-ing about topics such as the treatment of cattle in Canada and how the cattle industry receives undeserved negative

attention in terms of husbandry and care,” she says.

Her colleagues’ sub-jects include ambigu-ity, isolation, meditative journeys, memories and more in Ninety-Seven Days.

For Cale Guy, the message isn’t so clear cut – or is it? – and that’s by design.

He uses semiotics, the study of signs and sym-bols, in his work.

A Surrey artist who spent his forma-

tive years in Clover-dale, Guy has lived in Kelowna, Houston, and even New Orleans but is now back in his hometown,

He fi rst became inter-ested in semiotics while taking an art history course.

Th at, he says, is when he fi rst understood how semiotics could fi t into his own work as an art-ist.

“Semiotics in my art practice also oft en fa-cilitates what elements I will include in the work.”

His works are col-lages and three-dimen-sional pieces that blend historical and modern themes.

He was used to work-ing from sketches, but

this past semester he found that his usual process wasn’t having the desired eff ect in collage.

Eventually, he learned to let go. “I found the less I planned, the more successful the end result,” he said. “I began to learn the value of truly paying at-tention to existing images and how I could recode them into something new.”

He has two works in the grad exhibit. One is an untitled body of work containing 11 collages in vari-ous sizes. It uses repeated maps, exposed wood panel, a drawn lady Justice, and a Welcome to Surrey logo, among other components.

“Th e most enjoyable aspect of collage is the min-ing process – as I dig through multiple media for-mats I never know what I might uncover.”

Th e second is a single piece made from 16 woodpanel drawings, titled Voyage.

“It relates to the gathering and coding processNASA’s Voyager 1 uses to send us information as ittravels beyond our solar system.”

Ninety-Seven Days runs April 11 to 13. Th e open-ing reception is April 11 at 6 p.m. Th e exhibition isopen to the public. Admission is free.

Th e gallery is located in room 1843 at Kwantlen’s trades and technology campus, 5500 180 Street, Cloverdale. Use the east entrance.

Actor books role on FargoBy Jennifer LangA young Cloverdale actor is featured in

one of this spring’s most anticipated new TV shows – Fargo, a mini series starring a constellation of Hollywood heavyweights: Billy Bob Th ornton, Martin Freeman, and Colin Hanks.

It’s a small but recurring role on a criti-cally buzzed-about drama that marks an-other credit on this 10-year-old’s already notable acting résumé – who was the sub-ject of our March 7, 2013 story, “Actor’s (guest) star lands”, which outlined a num-ber of TV and fi lm project that were set to air last spring.

And for some reason the stars have aligned again for the Adams Road Elemen-tary student this month, when a number of his projects from the past year will make

their television broadcast debut, meaning anyone wanting to catch a glimpse of this local actor in action will have their pick of possibilities.

“Once again, spring seems to be when his eff orts over the year blossom,” his dad, Lee Drever, told Th e Reporter.

“Th is year is even bigger for Spencer,” said Lee, who explained Fargo is execu-tive produced by the Coen Brothers – the same duo behind the 1996 Oscar-winning crime drama the series is inspired by – and is written and directed by the same tal-ent that produced TV hits Breaking Bad, Bones, 30 Rock, and “basically every great show in the last 10 years.”

On April 20, he guest stars with Valerie Harper in the premiere of Signed, Sealed, CONTRIBUTED

Spencer Drever and his TV parents, Rachel Blanchard and Josh Close, on Fargo. See MINNESOTA / Page 10

Getting that Minnesota accent down was a challenge for actorFrom page 9

Delivered, a new series from the creator of Touched by an Angel, airing on the Hallmark Channel.

He’s also the voice of Brad, a lead character in Plum Landing, an animated series premiering April 21 to 25 during Arthur, on PBS.

Spencer is guest starring April 23 as the younger version of a lead character in Th e 100, a new show on CW.

Spencer appears in about half the 10 episodes of Fargo, in a small but pivotal role, according to his dad. Th e series debuts on FX Canada, a digital network, April 15. It’s an original adaptation of the memorable movie thriller that features a diff erent storyline, but is also set in the bleak northern win-terscape of Minnesota and a similar tone.

With such a strong ensemble cast, hopes are high.

Th e show revolves around a drift er (Th ornton) whoarrives in small town Minnesota, using malice and violence to infl uence the populace, including haplessinsurance salesman Lester Nygaard (Freeman).

Spencer plays Gordo, Lester’s “oddball nephew.”Despite turning in a promising audition, the

Drevers weren’t sure how well Spencer did, nevermind actually land the part – they never got a call back. “He had to read in a Minnesota accent, which is tougher than you might expect,” explained Lee.

Spencer obviously nailed it the fi rst time around,making the Grade 5 student one of the fi rst actors to be cast.

Spencer and his mom, Lisa, commuted back and forth to “freezing Calgary” as needed during pro-duction on Fargo, he said, usually three days at atime.

More than once, they landed in Abbotsford in-stead of YVR, heading straight to school in Clover-dale. “Quite a commute!”

Spencer, who started acting in Grade 1 at the suggestion of his teacher, is known for Diary of aWimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules, Happy Face Killer andStalkers.

When not acting, Spencer loves to play hockey (he’s a goalie) and basketball. He took in a Flames vs. LA Kings game in Calgary the last time he wasthere.

Spencer’s younger sister Sophie, 5, “Is also a per-former, with no current intentions, however, of turning pro,” noted dad.

Asking drivers to thinkBy Jennifer LangLast week as classes

across the district resumed aft er spring break, drivers going over the limit in the school zone at Martha

Currie Elementary in Cloverdale were caught in a speed trap they won’t soon forget.

Surrey RCMP mem-bers were handing out special warning tickets created by the Surrey

students whose school they were zooming past.

Each of the kid-creat-ed tickets urged: Th ink of Me, Please Slow Down, and featured a unique, hand drawn message created by a student.

Th e RCMP is always watching, warned a ticket drawn by Noah, a Grade 3 student at Mar-tha Currie. Another warned: Slow Down, Kids at Play, with a drawing of children lay-ing hoops and playing soccer under a brightly shining sun.

Th e Th ink of Me edu-cation and enforcement campaign is a partner-ship between Surrey RCMP, the Insurance Corporation of B.C., and the Surrey School District reminding par-ents and drivers about school zone safety and the hazards of distract-ed driving.

Before Spring Break, police checked more than 2,000 vehicles and issued more than 200 special warnings, along with dozens of viola-tion tickets for various infractions in school zones.

Now that spring is

here, drivers should expect to see more kids on the roads and to drive accordingly, said Karen Klein, ICBC’s road safety coordinator for Surrey and White Rock.

She said people need to be extra cautious and watch for kids especial-ly in and around school zones and around parks, now that spring is here.

“We need drivers to pay more attention. It is getting warmer,” Klein said. “We’ve got a lot of kids that are out on the roads, a lot more pedestrians, a lot more cyclists.”

Parents have a re-sponsibility to educate their children on road

Cloverdale Raceway pioneers inducted into Hall of FameContributedTh e annual Standard-

bred awards banquet took place Th ursday night (April 3) at Newlands Golf Course. Th ere are too many winners to list here but the following received multiple awards in dif-ferent categories:  Jim Marino, Steve Hudon, Bill Young, J J J Stables, Rod Th erres and Dave Hudon.

Th e highlight of the evening for me was when both Ray Gem-mill and Bill Young received standing ovations upon being inducted into the B.C. Standardbred racing Hall of Fame. Both gen-tlemen were pioneers of Cloverdale Raceway and are still training stables at Fraser Downs while being in their 80s.

On Friday night (April 4) at Fraser Downs, the very con-sistent three-year-old fi lly, Terrormissu, won the $15,000 fi nal of the Marian Young Memo-rial Stake race. Th e J J J Stables-owned and Bill Davis-trained and driven lass has now earned over $21,000 from four wins in six starts. 

Marian Young was the wife of Bill Young (mentioned above) and I am sure she was watching down on Bill the night of the awards banquet, especially when Bill wore out their two daughters dancing.

Th e cream rose to the top on Sunday (April 6) at Fraser Downs as the Jim Marino-trained and driven Premium Stock took the fi nal of the $15,000 Wendell Smith Memorial. 

Wendell was a very popular trainer, as was proven by the many friends and family who joined Marino and partner Cam Gar-diner in the winners circle. Premium Stock has put together three wins and three seconds in six starts this year for $22,000 in earnings.

Th ere’s only one weekend left to qualify for the Standardbred Canada Western Re-gion Drivers Challenge taking place April 26 at Fraser Downs. Hope-fully two of the follow-ing drivers will join Bill Davis and Jim Marino in representing B.C.: John Chappell (48 wins), Scott Knight (47 wins) and Dave Hudon (46 wins) are fi ghting it out.

Th e last weekend of April represents one of the biggest weekends of the year in BC rac-ing. On Friday night

Fraser Downs will fea-ture close to $250,000 in purses (four stake races), Saturday aft er-noon the Standardbred Canada Western Re-gion Drivers Challenge

at Fraser Downs to end the meet and Hastings Park in Vancouver will kick off the Th orough-bred season on Sunday.

Racing resumes this Friday night at Fraser

Downs (7 p.m.) and Sunday aft ernoon at 12:45 p.m.

– Jackson Wittup is the executive director of Harness Racing B.C.

DAVID JAMES / OUTTAKES PHOTOGRAPHYBill Young and Ray Gemmill received standing ovations when they were inducted into the B.C. Standardbred racing Hall of Fame last week. The men, now in their 80s, were pioneers of the Cloverdale Raceway, and are still training stables at Fra-ser Downs.

safety, she added. Safety tips include crossing only at crosswalks, making eye contact with drivers, and walking on the inside edge of the sidewalk to be fur-ther away from traffi c.

“Drivers need to be aware that when you en-ter this zone, there’s a reason why the speed limit comes down, and that’s so you can be more aware of the surroundings,” she added.

The program was introduced in Surrey at the suggestion of the Surrey RCMP’s District 4 of-fice in Cloverdale/Port Kells, and is now cover-ing 12 schools in the district, where the police will be setting up outside a different school each Wednesday.

“Anybody that has a child, if you’re handed one of these cards with a drawing, it’s quite personal and powerful for them,” Klein said.

“I think even more so than to get a ticket.”

Build A Legacy of Healthy Kids

Richard could run like the wind and now he has left us behind to live within it. Taken from his inconsolable family at only 23 years old in the early morning of March 30, Richard was loved without reserve by his mother, Linda, father Leagh and older sister Tara of Clo-verdale. He always made time for his grandmother Marge Kent of Vancouver and his grandparents Roi and Carell Shermann of White Rock. Of-ten called Richie by friends and family, his cousins, aunts and uncles and many, many friends feel his absence keenly. Richard was a happy individual. More importantly, he made others happy. His smile and outlook on life was always bright. His too short, life was punctuated by the things he loved – family time, his friends, sports and the outdoors. Referred to as ‘our mudbowl baby’ Richard was born Novem-ber 12, 1990. An incredibly active and adventurous child, he was skiing by the age of 5. Every winter family friends, Kurt and Charmaine made sure Richard had a home base to indulge his passion on the slopes of Hemlock Mountain. Growing up, it was quickly apparent Rich had inherited his father’s sprint-ing ability and his mother’s determination. He distinguished himself playing both high school and community football in Langley. But it was golf that claimed his teenage pursuits.Named for his grandfather Richard Kent, they shared a passion for golf that grew over the past fi ve years to the point where Richard was quite accomplished. He shared the love of golf with his Uncle Bob, and often played with his Uncle David and it encouraged his Dad and buddy Steve to take up the game even though they had little hope of catching him. Again, Rich had a step on them.Summers from early childhood were spent outdoors. Richard loved summers in Osoyoos wakeboarding behind Uncle Steve’s boat and shared many happy weekends on Gossip Island with the Friesens. The Hyneks and Shermanns were an extended family spending many weekend and summer vacations to-gether plus regular trips to Mexico where each family member contributed to incredible memories. All the ‘kids’ planned their work around family trips to Tulameen and Whistler.In addition to his parents and sister, Richard has left behind his uncle David, Aunty Cyndy and Liz, uncle Steve, aunty Mary, Lisa, Bryan and Bobbie, grandma Marge, aunty Linda, grandma Carrel and grandpa Roi, aunty Carelyn, Montana and aunty Shelagh. His grandpa Richard Kent and uncle Bob Kent predecease Richard. Richard has left us much too soon. He loved and was loved. Deeply and unconditionally. For those that knew Richard, they may recognize him some day soon in the wind that swirls by. The soft breeze he’ll lay across our cheek will temper the gusts of emotion that will buffet us. Richie will never be forgotten. A celebration of Richard’s life is planned for 11:00 am, Satur-day, April 19 at Newlands Golf Course in Langley. The family requests that in lieu of fl owers, donations be made to your favorite charity.
