A 10-year-old girl with a rare andlife-threatening disease receiveda walk-in tub from an internationalcompany Saturday.by Troy [email protected]
Selena Yorke was one ecstatic 10-year-oldSaturday morning when a white van delivereda special gift to her home on the Langley/Surrey border.
The fifth grader from Langley MeadowsCommunity School is the recipient ofwhat will be a life-changing donation fromCanadian Safe Step Walk-In Tub Co., an inter-national company with an office in Burnaby.
Selena loves music, cheerleading and roller-coasters. She is also facing a life-threaten-ing disease called Friedreich’s ataxia, a rareneuromuscular disorder that affects every cellin her body, including her heart.
Selena will lose the ability to do everydaythings that she loves to do with her friends,such as walking, dancing, and even singing.
Even tasks like taking a bath or shower canno longer be taken for granted.
The disease will get progressively worse.There is no cure for Friedreich’s ataxia.Selena is on a medley of vitamins, anti-oxi-
dants and supplements to help her improveher quality of life.
Selena’s family – which includes her dadBrad, momCari, and bigbrother Noah– is facing sig-nificant finan-cial obstaclesin order tomake necessaryrenovations ontheir home toaccommodate her needs.
Canadian Safe Step Walk-In Tub Co. was sotouched by Selena’s story, it donated a walk-in tub and shower to the family.
The tub was boxed in purple – Selena’sfavourite colour – and delivered to the fam-ily’s home around 9 a.m. on Saturday.
“I was very excited,” Selena said with awide smile. “Before, it was really hard to getinto the bathtub. I had to swing my leg overthe bathtub and my mom had to really help.”
Brad said the family is overwhelmed andexcited.
“This is an unbelievable gift to give toSelena and our family,” he said. “This isgoing to help immensely. Getting her in andout of the tub was getting more and more dif-ficult. This is definitely going to give her moreindependence.”
Brad said it’s been a “tough year” for thefamily, but the support they have receivedfrom their family, friends, and the communityhas helped to make it easier.
And like the rest of the family, he was overthe moon about the gift.
“This is definitely a life-changer for this lit-tle girl over here,” Brad said, motioning to hisdaughter sitting nearby at the family’s kitchentable. “Right, Selena?”
Later Saturday, friends and family held abenefit in her honour at Cascades Casino, but
the girl the event is dedicated wasn’t able toattend “A Night for Selena” at the casino’sSummit Theatre, due to her age.
Selena was chosen as a recipient (secondoverall and first Canadian) of the Safe StepCares program.
Safe Step staff heard about Selenathrough its Canadian production man-ager Kevin Balmer.
He asked his company to donateone of each of its state-of-the art walk-in tubs and walk-in showers, both ofwhich are designed for those sufferingfrom the effects of disability and mobilityimpairment.
Kevin asked, and his company said yes,twice.
Canadian Safe Step president Robert J.Hartley said Selena was a “perfect nominee”for the donation.
Hartley added, “We are pleased to be ableto provide Selena more safety and comfort asshe copes with the effects of this unforgivingdisease.”
Saturday morning marked Selena’s first lookat the tub.
“They were absolutely excited, excited,excited,” Hartley said. “This 10-year-old,beautiful girl, has no opportunity to beatthis disease. Only 15,000 people have itworld-wide. That’s the reason she wasthe Canadian nominee.”
Six staff members from Canadian SafeStep were at the home for the donation, alongwith TV and print media outlets.
“It’s a heartfelt moment to be able to givesomething like this back to the community,for the community that gives back to us,”Hartley said. “We consider this to be a majorquality of life issue.”

Racing toget studyAuto racing at CampbellValley Regional Park isgetting further consideration.by Matthew [email protected]
The issue of racing at the for-mer Langley Speedway is nota dead one, decided a MetroVancouver committee Thursday.
The Environment and ParksCommittee voted to have staffanalyze the idea of bringing backauto racing, for up to 14 daysper year, at the old racetrack inCampbell Valley Regional Parkin South Langley.
Township Councillor BobLong voted in favour of the staffreport, telling the Langley Advancethat Metro needs to look at cre-ative ways to raise revenues inorder to buy more parkland inthe future.
“Whether racing can be com-patible with other park usesremains to be proven,” Longwrote in an email. “Anything ispossible including electric cars!”
The proposal came from theLangley Speedway HistoricalSociety, a local group of carbuffs and racing fans who havespent the past several years col-lecting and preserving the hist-ory of the 3/8 of a mile track.
The Speedway, located at thefoot of 208th Street south of16th Avenue, started operationin the 1960s and ran for about20 years, with its last season in1984.
The land that includes theracetrack was sold to theregional district in the late1960s as a park, but a series oflease agreements kept racinggoing for more than 15 years.Races included three seasons ofNASCAR in the 1970s, one ofthe few B.C. venues to host suchan event.
Murray Jones and otherSpeedway Historical Societymembers have collected imagesand memorabilia from thetrack’s heydey, as well as work-ing to clear away invasive plantsfrom the track and the old seat-ing areas, now a grassy slope.
Equestrians and other parkusers have already expressedstrong opposition to the idea ofracing coming back to the park.
A civil discussion aboutarts funding kicked off theseason of all-candidate’smeetings in Langley.by Matthew [email protected]
The first meeting of rival can-didates in Langley for the 2013provincial election was a calmexchange of views about artsfunding.
The Langley Arts Councilbrought two NDP candidatesand a Liberal together Saturdayto talk to its members Saturdayafternoon.
The LAC asked three questionsof incumbent Langley LiberalMLA Mary Polak, her NDPopponent Andrew Mercier, andFort Langley-Aldergrove NDPerShane Dyson, about whether anarts facility could benefit a com-munity economically, if arts con-tribute to health and wellness,and about arts facilities support-ing youths.
Not surprisingly, all three can-didates agreed that arts are avital part of the community andcan aid in mental and physicalwell being, as well as boostingthe local economy.
The question of a permanentarts centre was on the mind ofthe dozen Arts Council memberswho attended the discussion.The council’s current gallery andworkspace, on Fraser Highway,
is a temporary location.The council’s president,
Rosemary Wallace, asked thecandidates where they wouldlocate a centre in the Langleys.
Polak said that on a practicalbasis, there’s more land avail-able in the Township. She sug-gested partnering with a schoolmight be a good option to createa new building.
Dyson also said that theTownship has more spaceavailable.
He noted, as well, thatboth Langleys are wellsupplied with sports fieldsand stadiums.
While that is valuable,“we haven’t done arts in thesame way,” he said.
In contrast, Mercier lookedtowards Langley City for an artscentre, saying it could be part ofthe process of urban renewal in
the core.Putting a centre far from the
centre doesn’t help existing localbusinesses, he noted.
On what could be done tobring more money to the arts,Dyson said that sports teams –and parents – have a good trackrecord for advocacy.
Groups like the Langley ArtsCouncil need to lobby for an
increase in funding,which he said was belowaverage in B.C.
Polak pointed toincreased arts fundingover the years.
She finished by sayingthat many decisions in
government aren’t between goodand bad, but between two goodoptions – sports versus arts, forexample.- See video of all three candidates talking

An independent candidate willfight for the right to representFort Langley-Aldergrove voters.by Matthew [email protected]
The first independent candidate ina Langley riding has announced he’llbe running against incumbent MLARich Coleman.
Kevin Mitchellsays he’s runningin Fort Langley-Aldergrove to givevoters an alternativeto the Liberal, NDP,Conservative, orGreen parties.
Independents can directly repre-sent their constituent, Mitchell said.
“They don’t have to followparty dictates,” he said.
Mitchell is best knownlocally for taking part indebates on the propane can-nons that have been a sourceof frustration for manyneighbours of berry farms,as well as for speaking on filldumping on rural properties.
His three key issues areagricultural concerns, thepace of development, and
maintainingsocial services.
The pro-develop-ment Mitchellsaid that LangleyTownship is growingfast, and the provinceneeds to both pro-
tect agricultural land and maintainadequate schools and hospital beds.
He said he decidedto jump into provincialpolitics after realizingthat many of the issueshe’d been engaged inlocally were actuallycontrolled by Victoria’spolicies and agencies.
A former member ofthe provincial Liberals,Mitchell left the partyafter the introduction ofthe HST.
Although he’s neverrun for office before, Mitchell sayshe has had a lot of experience withpublic speaking. He’ll put that to thetest Tuesday as he takes part in thefirst all candidates meeting hostedby the Greater Langley Chamber ofCommerce.
Mitchell is a vice president with aBurnaby technology company.

Langley Township’s plans totighten up its propane cannonbylaws won’t include a ban.
Propane cannons are loud,booming devices used on berryfarms to scare away birds.
Frustrated neighbours havecalled for them to be restrainedor eliminated. A special commit-tee was created last year to lookinto options and gather input.
On Monday, council voted fora series of five recommendationsto mitigate bird cannon noise,
within provincial Ministry ofAgriculture guidelines:
• Adding setbacks andreducing cannon firing fre-quency near municipal trails orhorse farms;
• Creating Township-managedregistration and licensing for theusers of scare devices;
• A fine structure for bylawviolators, at $150 for firstoffences, $300 for two, and $500for three or more;
• Communication with farm-ers, including about alternativemethods of bird control;
• Consideration of decibel
levels for a noise-regulationstandard.
Provincial regulations protect-ing farming practices precludethe Township banning bird can-nons.
Once Township staff prepare abylaw, it will be brought to thecouncil for debate and possibleamendment.
At a public meeting earlierthis year, residents called for anumber of alternatives, includ-ing using falcons, or outlinedhow the cannons have damagedtheir quality of life or their ownnearby farming operations.

Attention Lower Mainland Home Owners:23 of you are about to make an important financial decision...
“Frustrated Contractor ‘Giving Away’ $5136 Furnacesfor $1181 with Off-Season Central Air ...”
NO MONEY DOWN, NO PAYMENTS AND INTEREST FREE TIL 2014*(This is the Hottest AND Coolest Deal of the Century” ... especially if your furnace is over 8 years old)
Dear FriendI’m about to make you a deal that’s
hard to refuse if you’ve got an “older”(and probably less than optimally efficient)furnace.I’ll replace your old furnace AND heatpump as a “package deal” for at least$3136.00 less than you would pay anyother time of the year.
Sound too good to be true?It’s not and here’s why. I’m making
you what sounds like an unbelievable offerbecause it actually makes good sense formy business. And you come out a winner,as well!
You see, I know from experience that inmy slowest months I actually end up losingmoney ... then I have to spend the rest of theyear trying to make up for it. Right now, Ihave no reason to believe 2013 will be anydifferent.
That’s why I’ve decided to give up tryingto make a profit during these months andminimize my losses ... so I can come outahead the rest of the year.So here’s how I can make the incredibleoffer at the top of this letter.
Every year the biggie furnacemanufacturers guesstimate how manyfurnaces to produce. Since there’s no way ofknowing what the weather will be like andother factors that affect sales, these guysalways have leftover inventory they have tohold onto until the next heating season.
I saw a great business opportunity in thisand went to one of these biggie companies(they won’t allow me to use their name inthis letter) and contracted for the purchaseof these furnaces that were going to just besitting around. Plus, I bought 23 heat pumpsall in the 3 most popular sizes used in LowerMainland homes.
Because of the number I bought andthe time of year I purchased them, I got anunbelievable deal ... rock-bottom prices.
Don’t get me wrong - these arebrand-new, top quality, 2013 models. Not“seconds.” Not “blems.” Not builder-grade.These are premium furnaces and heat pumpsfresh from a name-brand factory with a fullfactory warranty.How to Get Your Name Brand Furnacefor Virtually Nothing
By putting together this furnace-plus-heat pump package (I call it the “HottestAND Coolest Deal of the Century”), goingthrough some heavy negotiations withthe manufacturer, and then committing to
buying 23 systems outright, I got BOTH thefurnace AND the heat pump at a price thatwould have made Sam Walton proud. Thismeans when you buy one of these 23 new,premium-quality heat pumps I will “give”you the furnace and ask you to pay onlythe $1181 in labor it costs to install yourfurnace.Pick up your phone right now
Simply call me at 946-1000 at anytimeso I can come out and measure your home(to see if I’ve got the proper size unit).Remember ... I’ve got only 23 matchedsystems in 3 sizes so you’ll want to let meknow VERY SOON that you’re interested.When these 23 systems are gone, they’regone, and this offer is null and void. Call meright now so we can get the ball rolling!
As part of the deal, I’ll show you howmuch the heat pump costs ... how muchthe furnace WOULD have cost ... and yoursavings when you buy your new heat pumpand furnace as part of this special offer. Theprice I show you will include all installationmaterials and labor. There’s no fine print,nothing left out.Earlier I said that making you thisamazing offer is also good business for me
The way I look at it, by letting YOU winbig now, I’ll win at the end of the year. AndI won’t have to “make up” for the lost salesduring my slowest months.
I figure if I make you an absolutelyirresistible offer .. if your furnace is pushing8 years or more ... and if I barely mark upthe price I paid, I’ll accomplish 2 majorobjectives that will allow me to reduce mylosses the rest of the year. I’ll be able to ...
• Pay my overhead (rent, utilities,insurance and taxes) during the slowperiod
• Keep my service & installationtechnicians busy enough to pay them towork instead of sit at home.As you can see, when you take me up
on my “Hottest AND Coolest Deal of theCentury,” EVERYONE IS A WINNER!And by the way, there’s no obligationwhen you have me come out to measureyour house and explain the installation
If you decide you don’t want to takeadvantage of this incredible deal (althoughI can’t imagine why you wouldn’t want tosave this kind of money), it’s no problem.You’re not obligated in any way. In fact, justfor taking time to read this letter and havingme out to survey your house ... I’ll giveyou a Very Special Free Gift Coupon ($50
value). Why? Even if we don’t do businesstogether now, I want you to remember us inthe future.If you’re thinking a new furnace (& heatpump) isn’t in your budget - don’t worry!You don’t have to pay me right now
Because I’ve tried to think of everyreason possible why you WOULDN’Ttake me up on this spectacular offer, I’veeven made arrangements for a super bankrate financing plan. And I’m not “markingup” the interest rate like so many othercompanies do.
While I can’t promise you this, it’spossible that with this financing plan yourmonthly investments in a new system couldbe more than paid for by the savings you seeon your monthly utility bills.My Disappointment-Proof Guarantee
Talking about lower utility bills, I’m sosure you’ll see at least a 25% cut in yourheating and cooling bills (in reality, it maybe more like 35%+), if you don’t I’ll pay youtwice the difference for 2 years.
Not only are you getting a new,first-quality furnace virtually free, plus afirst-quality heat pump at a great price, Iguarantee you’ll lower your heating andcooling bills by at least 25% or I’ll pay youdouble your savings for 2 years. (This aloneshould convince you that these systemsare some of the very best quality and mostefficient available).But you’ve got to act fast ... call me at 946-1000 right now! This offer ends April 30thno matter what
Don’t wait to call me. Here’s why. I haveonly 8 of each of the 3 sizes. When all of theair conditioners are sold and all the furnaces“given away” in a certain size, the “HottestAND Coolest Deal of the Century” is over.
And if I still have any of the 23 systemsleft on April 30th, this offer still ends. Thereason is that my business only slows downfor a short time. Since these furnaces costme so little, if I’ve got any left, I’ll sell themnext winter at last year’s prices and stillcome out ahead.So call me right now at 946-1000
Thanking you in advance,Scott Campbell
OwnerP.S. Remember, there’s no obligation
and - even if you change your mind onceI measure your house and give you theestimate - you still get that Free Gift Couponworth $50.
*W.A.C. - with approved credit. Cannot be combined with other offers.

Purpose: To amend the Zoning Bylaw, 1996, No. 2100 as noted below.

Langley is poised on the brink of history.Or more precisely, the Langley provincial
electoral riding may be poised to take a step ithas never taken before.
All the indications are that B.C. will have anNDP government one month from now.
(And if that bothers you, then make sureyou get off your butt and vote – in fact, if thatdoesn’t bother you, get up off your butt andvote – because apathy has a way of makingsure democracy doesn’t turn outthe way you wanted it to.)
B.C. has moved to the leftbefore. We’ve had NDP govern-ments in the 1970s and in the1990s. Indeed, the CooperativeCommonwealth Federation(CCF), forerunners of the NewDemocratic Party, actually wonthe popular vote in 1941. But because it’s nottotal votes, but total seats that win an election,Liberals formed the government, with the helpof the third-place Conservatives.
That election scared the political right inthis province so badly that they created aformal Coalition… which fell apart, leavingbehind only broken pieces of the Liberal andConservative parties.
W.A.C. Bennett, a disgruntled Conservative,grabbed the reins of an also-ran Social CreditLeague (much the way that Gordon Campbellwould later leave Social Credit to take controlof the BC Liberals) and the rest, as they say, ishistory.
The response to that near win for the CCFin 1941 sealed B.C.’s political fate, eventuallyswinging the province wildly back and forthfrom hard right to hard left and back.
Except Langley. Langley has never voted left.This neck of the woods has been represented
by the left in the Legislature – but that was
only because Langley was then only a relative-ly small part of a much larger Delta Riding.
Neither Len Shepherd nor Camille Matherever got solid support at Langley’s pollingbooths. Langley has always leaned right.
Except… maybe… it’s possible that thingsare changing. There’s a perfect storm brewingthat should have Mary Polak cinching up herovercoat. Uncommon winds could blow herright out of her seat… or not. You can’t tell forsure until after all the votes are counted.
But consider this: young people tend to startfrom the left, shifting towards the right as theyage… and Mary’s riding has been filling upwith young families in recent years.
The BC Conservatives haven’t been runninghot-and-cold so much as lukewarm-and-freez-ing. But they will undoubtedly grab enough
votes in some ridings to split theright and shift favour to the left.And Mary is running against theparty leader. A few percentagepoints for John Cummins – evenwithout a charismatic swing likethe one created by BC LiberalGordon Wilson which helpedbury Rita Johnston’s Socreds in
1991 – could give Langley to the NDP.While the Green Party has traditionally split
the left vote, with Wally Martin as their candi-date in Langley, they’re more likely to siphonvotes quite equally from everyone.
Mary may be in for a rough ride, andarguably, not really one of her own making(although anyone who is fed up with ChristyClark or the BC Liberals in general will argueguilt by association). She hasn’t been a “bad”MLA by any stretch. But parachuted in (sheadmitted to having driven through Langleyas a child), she really only won Langley thefirst time because she was the BC Liberal can-didate… and ironically, that is probably themain reason she could lose it this time.
Rich Coleman shouldn’t feel secure, either.No politician should. Carol Gran and DanPeterson were secure Social Credit candi-dates… until the Liberals thumped them.
Still, Rich’s loss would be a much bigger sur-prise than Mary’s – if either happens.

OpinionOur View
Election resultin your hands
As of today (barring the dangerouslyunexpected), the “writ has dropped” andthe province of British Columbia is in elec-tion mode.
This is democracy, folks, and you’re partof it. This is when you get to make the deci-sions that really count: because the deci-sions you make in the coming month willdetermine who makes the decisions thatsteer your community and your province,economically and socially, for the next fouryears.
This is an important election… they allare. Whatever the pollsters may try to tellyou, the results are not a foregone conclu-sion.
It may sound trite whenthe politicians say it (andit is, admittedly, usuallysaid by those who don’tlike what the polls say atany given moment), theonly poll that counts is theone that takes place on election day – theone that’s counted after the ballot boxes areopened by bona fide Elections BC person-nel.
Some people consider this whole democ-racy thing an unwelcome chore, others willignore it altogether – an annoyance that willgo away in a few weeks.
And then they’ll complain about “poorleadership” and how they don’t really haveany control.
But we’re going to do our best to giveyou as much information as we can aboutall the candidates and the issues that affectyou directly.
We’ll use Twitter @langleyadvance and ourwebsite at www.langleyadvance.com, Facebookand Layar, and of course, these printedpages to convey your candidates’ responsesto election issues as they arise.
Just ask the billions of people on thisplanet who would die – literally – for thedemocracy so many of us take for granted.They would tell you to pay attention, studyyour options, and make an informed deci-sion on May 14.
The decision really is yours.– B.G.

Dear Editor,Not only are race cars and
equestrian use completelyincompatible, CampbellValley Park is already verywell used and much loved,and the only equestrianpark of its size in the LowerMainland.
It is not so much if thetwo groups could come toan agreement, but it wouldbe absolutely unsafe anddangerous for equestriansto be asked to share thepark with extremely noisy,fast race cars and a speed-way with large amounts ofunpredictable people com-ing to watch.
Horses are extremelysensitive, and speedwaysand festivals would not bethe right fit in this location.
Campbell Valley Park is
used every single day of theyear by numerous riders ofall disciplines, as well as byhikers and families.
People already come fromall over the LowerMainland to utilizethis park. It is anaffordable havenfor healthy familyentertainment andactivity, providinga priceless venuefor fitness, natureexploration, andserenity. Withnumerous access points,the trails are accessible toequestrians and familiesfrom all around the area.
There are many environ-mentally sensitive areas,and the park has been verywell laid out to have as littlefootprint as possible.
I would hope that all ofthe parks board memberswill realize that a speedwayin this location 30 years agomay have been appropriate,
but with today’shigher populationand density of theFraser Valley, weneed to preserveour public parksfor the peaceful,tranquil environ-ment they offer forall of the public touse.
I also hope that the gen-eral public for miles aroundrealize that they could losetheir peace and quiet formany, many spring andsummer weekends.
Instead of the unobtrusiveclip clop of a horse or thepatter of a hiker deep inthe trails, they will be hear-ing the roar and whine ofengines for hours on end. Ihope that the general publiclets the Metro VancouverEnvironment and ParksCommittee know this is notthe location for a speedway.
A speedway may be awonderful idea. There isalready a race track inMission. Or there could bethe possibility of anothermore appropriate location.
Over the past 30 years,Campbell Valley Park hasbecome the Stanley Park ofthe Lower Mainland.

Langley Speedway
Racing threatening serenity
Langley Speedway
Can’t wait for racing datesDear Editor,
I read in the paper that the Speedway is trying to getsome dates in the future [Racing proposal angers parkusers, April 11, Langley Advance], and all I can say is yippee.We need more motorsports since Westwood was shut downand our promised track was never rebuilt.
It’s nice to hear of another venue.As for people like [Campbell Valley Equestrian Society
president] Carol McDonald, boo hoo. She said it herself:when she moved there, it was hugely noisy. So then, whydid she move there?
Is she like the people who move near an airport and tryto get the airplanes banned because they are noisy?
Ditto for train tracks?The kids need more things to do these days. They are
bored, as all the fun things in life, like racing, dirt bikes,etc. have all been banned unless you drive two-plus hours,and even then it’s getting harder to find places to do it.

Lettersto the
Editor
Dear Editor,The Salmon River
Enhancement Society spokeat public hearings in 2012,opposing the Wall develop-ment proposal and express-ing reservations about theTWU University District.
We have been joined bymany citizens who are notmembers of SRES, includingthe Fort Langley CommunityAssociation. The FLCAconcerns are especially rel-evant, given that the Wallproposal may increase pres-sures on the Fort Langleyfloodplain. This topic willbe featured at the FLCA andSRES Forum on the flood-plain on May 23.
Recent history, includ-ing the Parklane apart-ment wall, the WilloughbyForewest development, theCoulter Berry building, andthe first version of the Walland TWU public hearingsset a new low for councillistening to and respectingpublic input. The April 15continuation of the Wallpublic hearing fiasco lookedto be more of the same.
The Township needsmajor change to reinstatethe sort of transparency andgood governance that all ofus should expect.
SRES had previously stat-ed, when the Wall proposaland the University Districtwere brought forward onceagain last December, thatwe would provide our inputvia email and to the press,but we would not speak atthe public hearing.
We have decided thatwe would again not speakat the April 15 continua-tion. We no longer feel thatattending public hearingsand having council ignore
our input is a suitableinvestment of the time ofvolunteers who reap nomonetary benefit for themany hours they have con-tributed to this community.
As stated by the FLCA thefinal outcome of the pub-lic airing of divergent andopposing points of view,which is the hallmark ofparticipatory democracy,must demonstrate somecongruence between themajority view and a predict-able result. The Townshiphas earned a failing grade inthis regard.

A 1961 Jaguar owned by NorthOtter resident Chris Bennett for38 years will be part of a Britishcar event in Fort Langley.by Troy [email protected]
It hasn’t always been sunshine andrainbows for Chris Bennett and his1961 Jaguar XK 150.
In 1976, roughly a year afterhe bought it, the car broke whileBennett and his new wife droveit through San Francisco on theirhoneymoon.
Joan had to take the bus back toB.C.
Chris remained back in the Statesto get the Jaguar back in workingorder before driving it home.
Thirty-seven years and plenty oftrials and tribulations later, the yel-low Jag sits in front the couple’shome in North Otter.
“There’s a lot of baggage attachedto that car,” Bennett said, as heprepares to show it at the LangleyArea Mostly British Motoring Club’sannual St. George’s Day show in FortLangley.
Equipped with a drophead coupe,four-speed transmission, 220 horse-power, and overdrive, the Jaguar willbe among the more than 75 Britishvehicles on display in front of theFort Langley Community Hall onSunday, April 21.
It is only by sheer coincidencethat Bennett still owns the car thathe’s about to put on display in FortLangley.
He could have unloaded plenty oftimes, for monetary reasons, but inthose occasions it was in pieces.
“That’s how it survived in the fam-ily,” he said.
The car has been on and off theroad ever since he bought it, Bennettsaid.
“It sat for a couple of years hereand there, and then we’d scratchsome money together and buy a newset of tires for it, or a clutch, or what-ever else it needed,” Bennett said.“Over the years it’s gradually beenrestored. It’s reached the point wherewe’re restoring the restorations.”
The car underwent major body-work in 1986 and the paint on thecar now was done a year later.
It’s a different car in manyways than the one that Bennettbought in 1975. That’s when hesaw a newspaper classified adfor the then 14-year-old car.
He didn’t hesitate, dashing offto buy it.
“I knew it wouldn’t last,” he said.His former ride, a 1954 Jaguar,
was “very crude,” Bennett explained.“I was moving to an apartment so
I figured I would get something thatyou could lock,” he remembered.
It didn’t take long – a year tobe precise – for his new car to getstolen.
“The police found it at the dump,”Bennett said. “It had missing parts.We went to court. I met the guy whostole it.”
In 2013, the car is used mainly forcar shows and special occasions.
“It’s been up to the Sunshine Coast,hopefully we’ll get it up to Kelownathis year,” Bennett said. “It doesn’tsee much weather. It doesn’t get outmuch.”
His four adult children only get touse the car if Bennett knows whatthey’re doing with it.
“One of the kids, he was the bestman at his buddy’swedding, so I lethim drive that,” hesaid.
English vehiclesare notoriously
under-poweredand some-what unreliable and deserv-edly so, Bennett said, butthe Jaguar is an exception.
“The Jag is fine for free-way driving,” he said. “The
Jaguar was designed for the high-ways. It has the gearing to get you upthere.”
Bennett has always held an affec-tion for British vehicles and theirdrive-ability. His first car was a 1954Nash and he owned three Vauxhallsin a row.
“My dad was a real Vauxhall fan,”Bennett said. “So I sort of got intoVauxhalls.”
As he went through his 20s dur-ing the 1970s, the now 63-year-old wasn’t as much of a fan ofthe muscle cars like Trans Ams,
Camaros, and Dodge Darts.“They wouldn’t go around a cor-
ner,” he said. “Whereas with theEnglish cars, no matter if it was alittle sedan, it would go around a cor-ner. That’s because, back in the day,in England it was all windy roads.It was like a cow path turned into acar path, paved into a road with flint
walls beside it. You had tostay on the road, because ifyou hit the flint walls, thatwas the end of your car.”
He connected with fellowBritish vehicle enthusi-asts when he visited theL.A.M.B show in FortLangley a few years back.
He’s been a club member for thepast five years.
“I was really impressed becausethey have all English cars,” herecalled. “It’s not just Jaguars, orMorgans, or Triumphs, it’s a mixtureof all different cars. You get to seethe old cars your uncle had, or yourcrazy aunt had; you get to see thingsthat normally you wouldn’t see.”
The L.A.M.B show, with Britishvehicles and motorcycles on display,runs from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. rain orshine, and is open to the public.

What makes Langley a great placeto live?Both mayors are enthusiastic about Langley’s
central location, our range of housing options, and
our great parks.
Mayor Fassbender: “We have a lot to offer in terms
of diversity both from the point of view of housing
stock and the diversity of that from single-family to
multi-family residential. We’ve got great parks and
trails and bicycle networks that people can use and
then we have good opportunities for employment
here as well.”
He wasn’t getting any arguments from Mayor
Froese, who said, “We’ve got a great location;
we’re close to border crossings, close to airports.
We have 75 per cent of our land under the
Agricultural Land Reserve, so lots of green space.
You can live in the middle of our highest density
�������������� ��� ���� ������� ��� �� n~�
minutes you’re in the countryside. We’ve got parks,
wineries, farm markets, trails, and I think that
really makes our municipality, I like to think of,
as the envy, because we just have so many parks
here.”

Langley: between the city and the township, we are seven distinct
communities nestled between farmland set aside as part of the Agricultural
Land Reserve. How are we growing and what are the opportunities in
the coming years? In interviews for this Langley Advance special feature,

resources, the pressure is on throughout the region
to densify.
In the township’s six communities (Aldergrove;
Murrayville; Brookswood; Walnut Grove; Willoughby;
and Fort Langley), Froese anticipates most of the
growth to occur in Willoughby, after which we will
start to see Brookswood develop more.
|���������r �� ����� �� ��� �����n���� �s�������
over the next couple of years,” he said. “We’ve
got a lot of land that’s undeveloped and the
homebuilders are active in there and are
constantly putting up new homes. We’re going
������� ��� ��n���� ��������r ���� ������ ���
that is going to change Brookswood into some
more density. But we’re still in the process of
getting public input and how that will actually look
in the future, time will tell.”
“Our growth in the city of Langley is going to
be measured at about two per cent a year,”
commented Fassbender, “but around the city
of Surrey, township of Langley, Abbotsford, their
growth patterns are much more dramatic. That
has a positive effect on us from an economic
point of view because we have a lot of retail in our
community. The growth that goes on around us will
�� ����n���� �� ��� ���������� ��� �� ��� t����
community.”
The city has changed its density bylaw, doubling
density in the downtown core and maintaining
graduated lower densities as we move south so
there is a good mix of high, medium, and low
density.
The township is concentrating its increases in
density to transit corridors and is looking at the
land adjacent to the new Carvolth Park & Ride as
a place that could be developed so the people who
move in could step out their doors and hop on a
bus rather than taking their cars everywhere.
The transportation challengeWith growth come challenges. Both Froese and
Fassbender point to the congestion many residents
live with on a daily basis as a priority issue for their
councils.
“Transportation continues to be a major challenge
for us in ensuring that we not only catch up in
terms of what we need today, but that we plan
effectively for the future,” said Fassbender.
“We’ve been working with TransLink and looking
at the future of the transportation corridors in
our community and how they connect to the
communities around us. We’re looking at what
the modality options are for us, everything from
SkyTrain to at-grade rail to more integrated bus
services. So we’re strongly advocating for that and
will continue to.”
Added Froese, “We don’t have the luxury of
transit some of the other municipalities have. The
Carvolth Park & Ride is really helping get people
in and out of our community, but we need to have
transportation within the community so people can
have options and get them out of the cars and onto
transit.”
Getting down to businessThe township’s economic development advisory
��������� ��� �t� �������� ��~�������� ��n����
connect with existing businesses and promote the
township with a view to attracting new business,
while the city is working to develop strategies with
its downtown business improvement association –
identifying opportunities and how to capitalize on
them.
Froese spoke about the mobile business licence
����� ������� ��� �����n�� ������ ���� ��� ��t�����
and the city are participating in. “If you’re an
electrician and you’re based in Langley, you can
buy one business licence and do work in Surrey or
Chilliwack or Abbotsford without having to pick up
a business licence in each municipality. That’s one
way we can help businesses cut red tape, be more
��n����� ��� �� ����� ���� �������z
Community engagementInvolving citizens in building our communities is
important to both mayors.
“We have lots of great volunteers,” said
Fassbender. “We work with all of the various
agencies in our community. We have a group called
the Langley Healthier Community Partnership
that we initiated along with our neighbours,
where we sit down and talk about the needs and
the aspirations of our communities. So we are a
catalyst, I think, to helping a lot of that discussion
and we work closely with our volunteer groups to
make sure we keep our eye on the big picture. And
we also work hard to make our community feel safe
and engaging and where people want to come.
We’re trying very hard to maintain our personality
that we’ve developed over the years.”
Froese talked about the community building that
has gone into plans for the proposed new rec
centre in Aldergrove. “One of the things that we did
was strike a committee whose sole purpose was to
reach out to the community and hold workshops
and get information. That committee recently
n������ ��� ������� ��� ���~���� �� t��� �
report,” said the mayor. “The progress we’ve made
on the recreation centre is one of my proudest
accomplishments as mayor. It’s a project that will
take about three years, if everything goes well,
and it will certainly help to revitalize downtown
Aldergrove.”

Nestled in the historic and tranquil
settlement of Murrayville is a new
development by ParkLane Homes
that stays true to its historic roots.
Winchester Estates combines
the perfect mix of small town
charm with contemporary comfort.
“Murrayville has always been a
very family-oriented, sought after
neighbourhood,” says Yosh Kasahara,
general manager of sales and
marketing at ParkLane Homes.
“Murrayville really is unique in the
Fraser Valley because it delivers an
authentic small town experience with
all the modern conveniences. It’s a
quiet historic neighbourhood, and
everything around you is already built
– schools are established, parks are
mature and green, the roadways and
walking trails are here.”
Long admired for its picturesque
surroundings and vibrant community
������� w����r~���� �� �� ��n�����r
�������q�� �������� ���� �~��m�t���
with character and quaint appeal.
The second oldest community in
Langley, its roots date back to the
mid-1870’s when its founder and
namesake, Paul Murray, along
with his three sons, staked the
land at each corner of the New
Westminster-Yale Road-Fort Langley
Trail intersection. As other pioneers
followed Murray’s suit, “Murray’s
(Five) Corners” blossomed into a
thriving hub of activity complete with
a hotel, blacksmith, butcher, bowling
����r� ��� ���� ��� ���� ��n��� �� ���
centre of it all was Porter’s General
Store where, even to this day, you can
pick up mouthwatering fresh-baked
pies, dime-store candy and local
artisan delights.
“And of course, there’s Porter’s
Coffee House just down the street,”
adds Kasahara. “You can’t visit
Murrayville without trying their baking
– people come from all over Langley
to go to Porter’s.”
Kasahara went on to say that
because Winchester Estates is
built on the crest of a ridge, the
community boasts stunning views
of Langley city centre, the verdant
farmland and the Golden Ears
Mountains – something newcomers
��� ���������r ��������� �� n�� ���
about. And because the entire site is
m����� �r �������� ��� � ��������
edge, you’re never going to lose
that sense of being surrounded by
greenery.
Perched atop the hillside, Winchester
Estates is a distinguished selection
of 71 three bedroom townhomes,
starting at 1,294 square feet, in the
heart of this central location.
Winchester Estates is the much
anticipated encore to the award-
winning Winchester community.
These exceptionally beautiful
heritage-inspired homes feature
timeless Craftsman-style exterior
architecture with shutters, wood
shingles, brackets and other
decorative accents. These homes
have been carefully arranged to
take full advance of natural light,
open green spaces and existing
tree clusters that will surely evoke
the ambiance of an established
community built over time.
Cynthia Florano, interior designer
with ParkLane Homes, intentionally
designed Winchester Estates’
interiors to blend seamlessly with the
community.

“It’s important that the style and
overall feel appeals to those living in
the area,” says Florano. “We want to

active family.
Aspiring chefs will love the large
gourmet kitchens, which include
traditional wood shaker-style
cabinetry, engineered stone slab
countertops, brushed nickel

Whirlpool appliances, as well as
breakfast bars and pantries.
“The upper cabinets in the kitchen
are oversized for extra storage,” adds
Florano.

and some include his/hers ensuite
vanities and wood shaker style

From the inside out, every detail at
Winchester Estates is well thought-
out.
Langley has a rich history dating
back more than two centuries. Many
of the village’s old buildings have
been restored, adding to the historic,
“small town” feel and appeal —
combining urban chic convenience
and country charm.
There’s also rich history behind
Winchester Estates’ moniker. The
Winchester community was named
in honour of William and Ann
Winchester who, in 1915, arrived
in Murrayville to begin a bright, new
future. Along with their daughters,
Elizabeth and Ann, the Winchesters
devoted much of their time to the
local church, where they helped build
the deep-rooted sense of community
that still exists today.

community built by ParkLane Homes

Langley is emerging as one of the
most sought-after communities in the
Lower Mainland because of its blend
of urban sophistication coupled with
its rural, pastoral landscape.
In the heart of Langley is where one
of the most respected builders in the
province, Marcon, makes its home
and its building Cornerstone North.
Like its predecessor, Cornerstone
North is built on a grassy landscaped
totally gated podium, which means
all of the homes are up off the street
��~��� �� ��� ������ m��� ����� ���
extremely secure and private.
“This is the sister building to
Cornerstone but it’s slightly
different,” says Liz Anderson, partner
at Key Marketing, who is overseeing
sales for the development.
Built to the same high standards
�� ��� n��� ��������� �����������
North is a selection of 124 residence
condominiums of one-, two- and
two-bedroom plus den homes which
will feature several upgrades that
now come standard - nine-foot
ceilings, more natural light from the
larger windows, soft-close cabinetry,
36-inch upper kitchen cabinets and
side-by-side refrigerators with water
and ice dispensers.
“Listening to previous and
prospective buyers is something
Marcon puts a lot of value in
and many of those ideas were
incorporated into Cornerstone North,”
says Anderson.
These contemporary West coast
homes are distinguished by open
interiors with high quality laminate
m������� ����t���� t����t� ��
bring the outdoors in, and warmed
on dreary rainy days by the cozy
m������ n��������� l���� �������
residences also include plenty of
unexpected, upscale features that
come standard in every home — spa-
styled bathrooms with a rain shower
head and above-counter vessel sink
and gourmet kitchens complete with
a built-in wine rack, stainless steel
appliances and under cabinet LED
strip lighting.
From your new home, you can wake
up to spectacular views of Golden
Ears to the North and Mount Baker
to the Southeast. Then imagine
stepping out the door of your brand
new upscale home for a short
walk to coffee shops, restaurants,
grocery shopping and fabulous little
boutiques.
|u����r� r��x�� ���� n�� ���� �� r���
favourite restaurants and shops,
like Earls, Browns, Willowbrook Mall,
Safeway, and Costco,” says Anderson.
“In addition, lots of people are excited
about Target, Mountain Equipment
Co-op and Cactus Club Café coming
soon.”
Within a short drive, you have easy
access to all major commuter
routes Cornerstone North is also
within a short distance to Kwantlen
Polytechnic University, Newlands Golf
and Country Club and three of the
city’s 40 parks.
A transplanted Vancouverite,
Anderson chose Langley as the
community to raise her two young
children.
“The schools are fantastic in Langley
and everything is so accessible from
here,” she says. “There’s a great
quality of life in Langley. And living
���� y ���� ��� �� ��� n�������� ��t
Marcon contributes to this community
that they’ve been a part of for over
28 years – It’s part of the fabric of
the company and who they are.”
Meanwhile, Cornerstone’s
classic four-storey design with a
contemporary twist features timber
detailing and stone turrets, will make
you think you’ve just arrived at a
mountain resort like Whistler.
Cornerstone North is attracting not

downsizers and urban professionals
who seek beauty and superior
n������� o����� t�� ��~� ������r
bought into Langley’s Cornerstone
are pleasantly surprised at the
sophisticated Vancouver urban
look and feel of the condominium
residences.
Marcon’s trademark attention to
detail is unmistakable; one need
only to take in the details of the
cabinetry, oversized patios or fenced
yards, parking and storage locker,
�������� ���������n�� ��� ����
screen technology, to know that this
is a unique offering. Not only has
Marcon built a stellar reputation for
constructing over 8000 superior
homes – 3000 of which are in the
Langley area – but more importantly
is recognized for standing behind
what they deliver with their superior
post-purchase Customer Care
program.
With this reputation, it’s no
surprise that in a world where most
condominium developments tend to
complete a little later than expected,
Marcon is ahead of schedule by
nearly four months.
“Our completion date just moved
up and we’re now within 90 days of
completion so the banks will secure
even better rates for buyers,” says
Anderson.

Change and innovation – these are hallmarks ofKwantlen Polytechnic University’s Langley campus.KPU is leading the way in many of its Langley-basedprograms, most notably in horticulture, sciences,health and music.KPU’s School of Horticulture is already being toutedas a shining example of originality. The CanadianFoundation for Innovation awarded over $2.2 millionto fund research into new production systems, cropsfor green energy greenhouses and development ofbiocontrols for horticulture crops.“We have a great research institution in horticulture- a very strong program with strong instructors,” saysDr. Alan Davis, KPU president and vice-chancellor.Its ground-breaking courses are designed to preparestudents for careers in sustainable agriculture,greenhouse production, environmental protection,plant health and more.
A well-regarded apprenticeship program is a keycomponent.Students literally get their hands dirty in an outdoorclassroom for research, demonstration and cropproduction. The neld lab has �.� hectares of gardensand beds representing a full range of landscapes.“When you add the cutting-edge science labs, abotany lab, greenhouses, polyhouses, containerand in-ground nurseries, you have created the bestenvironment for students to succeed,” says Dr. Davis.KPU’s Langley campus is also renowned for its strongmusic, health and science faculties.KPU’s Faculty of Community and Health Studies(CAHS) offers programs that are grounded in theconcepts of caring, collaboration, inclusion anddevelopment of healthier communities. CAHSprograms vary in length from four year bachelordegrees to nve month citations.The arts curriculum includes a Bachelor of Music inMusical Arts, a Diploma inMusic and Associate of Arts: Music. KPU’sclassrooms, teaching studios and individual practicerooms were specincally created for music instructionfrom solo to orchestral performance.“Our Langley campus is the most community-engaged campus of all four,” adds Davis. “As thepopulation of Langley and neighbouring communitiesgrows, KPU will add programs to make sure that whatwe offer is always pertinent to Langley. In fact, wecollaborate with both the City and Township regularlyto ensure our programs are the right ones.”Building strong community connections is a keyobjective for KPU.
“The City of Langley is a great place to live, work andplay. Our population density and thriving economy
attract businesses that want to become part of ourlong-term growth,” says Peter Fassbender, mayor, Cityof Langley. “KPU is a vital link between our youngworkforce and the diverse business opportunitiesthat we have now and will continue to develop. KPU iswell-positioned to respond to the growth of our regionand its increased post-secondary education needs.”“Universities are key economic drivers in anycommunity. We are proud to have KPU in our region,”says Jack Froese, mayor, Township of Langley. “Welook forward to strengthening our ties with KPU tohelp foster innovation as we move forward with oureconomic development plans and diversify our localeconomy, increase local employment opportunitiesand create a learning community. As the Townshipgrows, so too will our need for increased access toeducation and skills training. KPU will be integral tonlling that need.”

Arne Olson said fan support is crucial to the 2013 Special Olympic BC Summer Games, July 11-14 in Langley Township.
The chair of the 2013 BC SpecialOlympics Summer Games is urging thecommunity to support the upcoming event.
by Troy [email protected]
Arne Olson is something of an expert onteamwork; he was the founding chair for theCanadian Cancer Society Relay for Life fund-raiser in Langley back in 2004.
So when he was approached to chair the2013 Special Olympics BC Summer Games,coming to Langley Township July 11-14, he wasquick to sign on.
Over four days, 1,100 athletes with intellectualdisabilities from 55 communities across B.C. will con-verge on the Township.
Factor in the 400 coaches, along with participants’friends and families, and Langley is about to host anevent of a grand scale.
Olson, a retired airline pilot, has no prior connectionwith the Special Olympics.
However, he viewed chairing the Games’ organizing
committee as an opportunity to learn more about thecommunity, and in particular, people with intellectualdisabilities.
“There are many communities within our commun-ity,” Olson said. “One is this community of familieswith a person with an intellectual disability. I knewnothing about that. They say that sport builds bridges
between communities. In my mind’s eye, I could seethis as an opportunity to learn a lot more, to broadenmy personal scope.”
The vision of the Games is for the athletes to pur-sue excellence, to dream big just like anybody else.
“They have the right to push past their limits, tocompete, to excel, and to experience the joy of team-work and the passion of sport, just like anybody else,and that’s what these Games are about,” Olson said.
The Games’ slogan is “be a fan, fill the stands.”In other words, don’t just watch the athletes compete,
cheer them on.“Special Olympics has historically been athlete driv-
en,” Olson said. “There has not been a push, historic-ally, to involve the hosting community in supporting theevent by way of showing up and just encouraging.”
Olson said spectators will be seeing athletes driving tocompete and excel within their personal limits.

Langley Athletic FC is on aone-year hiatus from the PacificCoast Soccer League.
LAFC, which includes a strongcontingent of Trinity WesternUniversity Spartans, won’t bein the PCSL’s Premier MenDivision this season as it waitsfor construction on its home fieldat McLeod Stadium to be com-pleted.
“We have no field,” team pres-ident and owner Ewen Dobbiesaid. “With the temporary clos-ure of the stadium we have noreal home park that has the kindof professional environment wewant to create.”
Construction started on March4, and theproject isscheduled forcompletion thefirst week ofJune.
The mainelement isthe replace-ment of MAP’soval syntheticturf, whichafter 10 yearshas reachedthe end of itseight-year lifespan. At thesame timeworkers aredoing fur-ther drainageimprovementsto the fieldbase as partof the project, while safety fen-cing is being erected between thetrack and the field area to keepspectators away from the playingsurface.
Langley Township councilapproved the project in 2012.
The Township applied for andreceived community infrastruc-ture improvement funding fromthe federal government to thetune of $250,000 towards the $1million project.
Langley Athletic will train intothe summer but won’t be part ofthe PCSL this season.
In February 2012, LAFC wasaccepted into the PCSL, whichmoved the club from a U20 teamto an open men’s squad.
The B.C.-based PCSL is aninter-city, cross-border leaguewith a season that runs typicallyfrom May to August.
Member clubs are drawn fromacross the Pacific Northwestin cities from the B.C. Interior,Fraser Valley, Lower Mainland,Vancouver Island, throughWashington State, and Oregon attimes.
During the 2012 campaign,LAFC finished with a 5-6-5 mark.
Dobbie said the PCSL has beenvery understanding of the move.
“They have given us a furloughfor the year,” he said.
It just so happens, he added,the refurbishment of MAP’s turf
field lines upexactly withthe start ofLAFC’s sea-son.
“We triedto worksomethingout withthe SurreySoccerAssociationbut it wastoo shortnotice,” hesaid. “Weaccept itas a neces-sary real-ity. We’rehappy it’sgetting done.We wantto make it
[McLeod Stadium] our home fieldand work towards the environ-ment we were building lastyear.”
LAFC plans on playing a friend-ly game, maybe more, againstBellingham United this year, “justnot in a league format,” Dobbiesaid.
LAFC is just one of MAP’smany user groups and as a result,doesn’t have an overly strongvoice, Dobbie noted.
“We don’t have the fieldbooked a year in advance,” hesaid. “Every year, it’s been achallenge for us to get fields.Don’t get me wrong, theTownship has been great but it’sdifficult to squeeze smaller usergroups like us between larger
user groups.”Ultimately, Dobbie said, LAFC
would like to secure a long-termlease to get space and preferredtimes at McLeod Stadium.
LAFC head coach Pat Rohlasaid the vision of the club is to“not to do anything halfway.”
“There’s a lot of things… thatthe owner [Ewen Dobbie] wantedto make sure happens,” Rohlasaid. “If he puts his hand onsomething, he wants it be donethe right way.”

off isn’t a bad thing, if theend result is a nicer venue.
“We’re really starting togain some traction afterlast year,” he added, “but
unfortunately, if you don’town your facility, youare at the mercy of othergroups, which is okay, too.”
LAFC is building a geo-graphical rivalry withnearby Bellingham United
and Rohla believes thatwill continue once the clubresumes play in 2014.
“We have a good productand have a good venue,and we want to build intothat,” he said.
