New Westminster city councilis looking at ways to liven upcity streets.

Council has expressed aninterest in expanding the city’sstreet activity program, whichwas first developed in 1997 toallow street entertainment andsome street vending to takeplace in designated places indowntown New Westminster.

“The intent of the programwas to enhance street vitality andcreate employment opportuni-ties for small business operators,while ensuring no business wastaken away from existing com-mercial tenants/owners,” a staffreport to council states. “In 2009,the program was expanded toinclude locations in the down-town and to permit the sale ofperishable foods.”

After considering the issues,staff recommended that streetentertainment (buskers) wouldremain at current locations inthe downtown (excluding theesplanade), but some new regu-lations would be adopted. Theseinclude auditioning before beingissued a permit, limiting theirtime to two hours at any onelocation and avoiding any “high-risk or unsafe performances,”such as juggling knives or flam-ing objects.

Staff noted that there has been

Summer funThings have come full circle at the New Westminster Police Soccer

Camp. Those who were once students are now the teachers.Constables Lara Dewitt and Jen Deacon attended the camp as

youngsters in the ’80s. Now, both have served three years with NewWestminster Police and are back at the camp as coaches.

“It started in ’81, and I was there shortly thereafter, and I wentthrough until they kicked me out,” Dewitt said with a laugh.

For Deacon, it was much the same. Both also came back as volun-teer coaches in their teens.

The 2011 soccer school wrapped on July 22 after a week of soccerfundamentals, games and demonstrations of police fire departmentequipment.

Dewitt and Deacon said they decided to come back to coach for thesame reason they wanted to go to the school when they were young– fun. Except instead of learning about passing and what’s inside a

police cruiser, Deacon and Dewitt get toteach a new generation.

“I love my job. I love going to workevery day. I love catching bad guys, butthis is a week that’s a nice break from that.Instead of always dealing with the nega-tive in people, you get to hang out with abunch of kids who are here to have somefun,” Dewitt said

“Just like us,” Deacon added. “It’s a funweek seeing the kids from start to finishand they have a blast. Just seeing the kids’faces light up, everything is so cool and sonew to them.”

Dewitt decided she would one daywear a badge while attending the school,and now, she said, some of the studentsshe is coaching have said the same thing.

Dewitt said the highlight for this year’scampers was the police K-9 unit demon-stration, though things have changed a bitfrom when it was her favourite activity atthe camp.

“When Jen and I were there, it was a bigelaborate production. We would be on thefield, and suddenly two police cars wouldcome racing through the back lot. Therewould be fake gunfire. It was awesome,”Dewitt said. “A bad guy would come run-ning across the field, and the dog wouldchase him and tackle him down. It was abig show, and, as kids, we didn’t realizethat it wasn’t real.”

And while the K-9 demo has beenscaled back for safety reasons, somethings have stayed the same, Deacon said,namely Det. Mike McFarlane and Const.Bruce “Chicken Legs” Ballingall as fixturesaround the playing fields.

Chief Const. Dave Jones has either beencoaching or organizing at the school sincehe joined the force 25 years ago. Now inhis first year as chief, Jones is a little bitmore behind the scenes.

“We’ve been doing it for 31 years, andwe’ve almost got it right,” Jones said.“We’re always looking at ways to enhanceit.”

Jones said he sees a bright future for theschool, and year after year, he is alwaysimpressed with the commitment of thepeople who come together to put it on.

“A program doesn’t last 31 years with-out the support of a vast variety of people.I’m talking about sponsors and membersand people who coordinate. No one per-son has run this by themselves for 31years,” he said.

And as long as parents keep liningup at 6 a.m. to register their kids, NewWestminster police will be happy to oblige,he added.

Jones said the camp is designed to domuch more than teach five- to 12-year-oldshow to kick a ball.

It’s meant to start bringing young indi-viduals together with the police in a posi-tive way, just like it did for Dewitt andDeacon.

“Soccer is a part of it, but there isanother part, which is that interactionwith police and volunteers in a fun setting.That’s what we’re looking for,” he said.

increasing interest in food and non-foodvending within the entire city. Inquirieshave come from hot dog vendors, painters/artists, crafters selling homemade goods, ashoe polisher and a flower vendor.

A report indicated that proposed chang-es to the existing street activity programwould insist that the vendor not be within60 metres of the entrance of a business sell-ing a similar product and would expandto include locations outside downtown. Ifmore than one applicant meets all the city’srequirements, a lottery would be held toselect the vendor.

Staff noted that vendors need to be inlocations where there are a lot of pedes-trians, where sidewalks are wide enoughto accommodate pedestrians and vendors,and where vendors won’t conflict withparking meters or people’s access to parkedvehicles.

Currently, the street activity programincludes vendors and entertainment onthe esplanade, Hyack Square and NewWestminster SkyTrain station on EighthStreet. Vendors, depending on the merits ofthe applications, can use some other down-town locations.

Under the revised program, food or non-food vendors would be considered out-side the New Westminster and Columbia

SkyTrain stations, Hyack Square, outsidethe police station, at 351 East ColombiaSt. in Sapperton and at New WestminsterPublic Library plaza. While other loca-tions in the downtown would be evaluatedon their merits, the esplanade would beexcluded.

Coun. Betty McIntosh noted that anexisting non-food vendor has been ableto use the area outside the Fraser RiverDiscovery Centre, but that area will be offlimits under the proposed recommenda-tions. While she agrees that food vendorsshouldn’t be permitted at that location,McIntosh questioned why a non-food ven-dor wouldn’t be allowed.

Coun. Bill Harper said River Markethas been extremely concerned about foodvendors as they compete with the market’stenants.

Lisa Spitale, the city’s director of devel-opment services, said the city didn’t allowany vendors on the esplanade before RiverMarket closed for renovations. She saidthe assumption was that once the mar-ket reopened, the city would return to itspractice of not allowing vendors on theesplanade.

The changes proposed in the staff reportwon’t be implemented this year. Counciltabled the report and will discuss it at alater date.

A fire that destroyed a residen-tial complex under construction inRichmond has provided some lessonsfor other municipalities consideringsix-storey wood frame buildings.

A six-storey residential build-ing that was under construction inRichmond was destroyed by fire inMay. Richmond Fire-Rescue had tocall in firefighters from other juris-dictions to help fight the blaze onCambie Road.

New Westminster’s developmentservices and fire departments recentlyprovided a staff report to city councilabout fire safety and other concernsabout six-storey wood-frame build-ing construction.

They aren’t opposed to this type ofconstruction but want the city to beaware of some concerns and ways ofaddressing those concerns.

Frank Durante, the city’s man-ager of building inspections, said theprovincial government enacted newregulations in 2009 that permittedmid-rise wood-frame buildings.

The B.C. Building Code nowincludes provisions for mid-risewood-frame buildings around mat-ters such as sprinkling, height limita-tions, size limitations, exterior clad-

ding, hold-open devices for doorsand more.

“The code added extra condi-tions above what a four-storey wouldhave,” Durante noted.

According to Durante, a mid-risewood frame building has been builtin Kelowna and another has beenproposed in North Vancouver.

“We have a preliminary one thathas come in. It is across thestreet,” he said about a sitenear city hall. “It is in thepreliminary stage.”

New Westminster Fireand Rescue has considereda number of issues aroundthis type of development.The report cites issues suchas the fire department’s abil-ity to fight fires from theinterior and exterior, theability for portable laddersto be used to fight fires, thelack of fire sprinkler systems in build-ings that are under construction, andthe ability for the fire departmentto have the equipment and staffingresources to respond to a fire in a six-storey building.

“While it is understood that wehave many buildings within the citythat are as high or greater than sixstoreys in height, most current build-ings exceeding four storeys in heightare constructed of non-combustiblematerials,” said a staff report. “Firedeveloping within higher woodframe structures will present addi-tional challenges.”

The head of the New WestminsterFire and Rescue Service, however,

said these issues could be addressedwhen the city’s fire plan is updated.

Fire Chief Tim Armstrong said hedoesn’t want to scare council off fromthe concept of six-storey wood framebuildings but wants them to be awareof some of the concerns about thattype of construction.

Coun. Bob Osterman said the citywould have to ensure that the fire

department had access toall sides of six-storey wood-frame buildings.

“I can certainly see wehave to be very, very care-ful for granting variancesfor the site, side yard vari-ances,” he said. “I’d be veryuncomfortable seeing a six-storey wood frame build-ing with a six-foot side yardclearance to the next build-ing.”

Armstrong said a fire ina six-storey building would tax thefire department’s on-duty staffingresources pretty significantly.

He noted that calling staff back towork is becoming “more and morechallenging,” something that recentlyprompted Richmond Fire-Rescue toask New Westminster to assist with afire because it couldn’t get enough ofits firefighters back to work.

Durante said it doesn’t make senseto require sprinklers to be installedin buildings under construction forvarious reasons, but a 24-hour firewatch would help “mitigate a firetaking hold” because it would bediscovered early.

For most of us, a major car accidentis little more than a blip: an item on theevening news; the sound of a speedingambulance passing by us intraffic; an update on a radioshow on the morning commute;a road-side memorial with can-dles, notes and flowers slowlyfading away under the rain or sun.

But for some, for those in the car oron the bicycle or crossing the street atjust the wrong second, that “blip” isthe moment when everything changes,

when their life’s course is forever altered.Sometimes it means permanent injury– the loss of a limb, a spinal injury that

leads to permanent paralysis, ahead injury that leaves an indi-vidual with no ability to speak,or perhaps even to care forthemselves. And those people,

sadly, are the lucky ones: some die longbefore emergency crews ever even arriveon the scene.

For the families and friends of thoseinjured or killed, there is only a lifetime

ahead of wondering why such a thinghas happened and wishing that anythingcould be done to change it.

According to Transport Canada sta-tistics, fatal motor vehicle accidentshave actually decreased over the years.Stricter belt laws and child restraint rulesno doubt have saved many lives; so toohave crackdowns on drinking and driv-ing. That’s great news, but the sad factremains that far too many people stilllose their lives for no reason other thaninnattention, or excessive speed, or sim-

ply being in the wrong place at the wrongtime.

The B.C. Day weekend is, historically,one of the most deadly periods on B.C.roads – as many as 1,800 crashes, on aver-age, happen around the province on thelong weekend. Some of those are minorfender-benders, but far too many result indeath or permanent injury.

This weekend, remember that a simple“blip” is all it takes to turn someone’s life– perhaps even your own – from ordinaryto tragic.

Dog owners: Don’tbe cruel to pets

Idon’t know of many whoweren’t enjoying the spateof nice weather we just had

– appeased that the sun stayedfor a few days, at least.

Attendance at last weekend’sfair in Aldergrove – and atcommunity events around theregion, such as FraserFest inNew Westminster – is a strongindicator of just how anxiouspeople are to get outdoorsand have some funin something otherthan liquid sunshine.Thousands swarmedto the weekend festiv-ities, taking in the midway rides,games, activities, and live enter-tainment.

While I’m thrilled to see thecommunity rejoicing at this fam-ily-oriented party, I want to sendout a little reminder to leaveyour four-legged family mem-bers at home on such occasions.

Admittedly, it gets my dan-der up to see some folks attendthese kinds of events, andthey’re walking among the bigcrowds of people with a dogthat is obviously scared, over-whelmed, distressed, hot – or allof the above. I don’t care howwell-trained the animal is orhow much you love it. I don’teven want to hear the excuses ofseparation anxiety or depressionthat apparently plague pets.

If someone really loves his orher dog, leave it at home whenthe mercury begins to rise.

Now that leads me to a topicthat makes my blood boil.

Wandering through parking

lots, how often have you spottedan animal left inside a vehiclewhile their human is inside astore shopping or off revelling insome form of summer fun?

Each year, animal welfareorganizations respond to hun-dreds of complaints about dogsleft in hot cars. On a warm day,temperatures inside a parked carcan quickly climb to well above38 degrees Celsius (100 degrees

Fahrenheit).Dogs can withstand

high temperaturesfor only a very shorttime before suffer-

ing irreparable brain damage ordeath.

Take an incident in Burnabyearlier this month, where a GoodSamaritan noticed a puppylocked in a kennel in a car leftsitting in direct sunlight at BCIT.The distressed dog was bark-ing, and it did not appear tohave any water. With the excep-tion of the vehicle’s sunroof,which was slightly ajar, the carwas sealed for some two hours.The five-month-old puppy wasunresponsive and not breathingby the time authorities arrivedand broke her free of the swelter-ing hot prison.

Despite efforts to resuscitateher, that dog could not be saved.

Or what about the morerecent incident near Victoria, inwhich an off-duty police officerleft a 10-month-old Germanshepherd, which was beingtrained as a police dog, in a hotSUV for about three hours while

OUR VIEWTHE RECORD

A message to the thievesDear Editor:

Attention power washer thieves:I just wanted to thank you very much for teach-

ing me a valuable lesson. You guys are so sneaky,you trespassed onto my property, broke into mygarage and stole my power washer, the whole timeI was in the yard. You must be very proud of youraccomplishments and have such a fulfilling life.Good for you!

Thieves, I just wanted to let you know, that dueto you being such pilferers (you might have tolook that word up), I decided that this would be anamazing opportunity to inform my fellow Queen’sPark residents that there are very talented criminalsaround and they should shut their garage doors(day and night) and make sure that all their pos-sessions in their yards should be locked up. Howhard is it to put a chain and lock on a lawnmoweror bike? We wouldn’t want to assist you imbeciles

obtaining easier purchases of drugs.Important information (Thieves, if you can read,

you can skip this paragraph): Homeowners, makesure you have the ID numbers on all your expensivepower tools, household accessories and recreationalequipment. House insurance will cover items thathave ID numbers.

The police were very helpful in this matter andwere delighted when I informed them that I do havethe ID number for my power washer. Yeah, I didreport it, losers. They also informed me that, dueto this crime and others that you and your fellowdegenerates have committed in New Westminster,they will be monitoring our neighborhood moreclosely. Thank you for helping make Queen’s Park asafer place to live.

P.S. You forgot the hose, and knowing that youwon’t get that tiny extra piece of crack makes mesmile.

Your mothers must be very proud of you.Name withheld, New Westminster

Wind energy is a good planDear Editor:

I was pleased to discover, and quiterecently, that B.C. now gets some of itselectricity from B.C. wind farms.

B.C. was the last province in the coun-try to get wind farms despite having someof the best locations for wind energy in thecountry.

However, I was not nearly as pleasedto find out how much electricity is flowinginto our homes from coal-fired generatorsin the United States and Alberta.

I do understand that buying cheap coalpower from outside B.C. at night, whendemand is low and the supply is high,helps to keep our B.C. electricity rateslow (coal-burning plants are apparentlydifficult to shut down once they are atoperating temperature, so they keep themrunning all the time).

But if we’re purchasing coal power justbecause it’s cheap and available, aren’t wejust as guilty of polluting the air as thosewho burned the coal?

Energy from the wind is clean and free,and it’s not going to leave a big environ-mental problem for our kids and grand-kids to sort out.

The same cannot be said for the energyfrom burning coal.

That should make it obvious whichenergy path we should be pursuing.

Wind energy seems like an ideal energysource for B.C., and we’re fortunate tohave it as one of our clean energy options.

Don’t miss ballot deadlineDear Editor:

It is critically important that all BritishColumbians are fully informed about thenew deadline to submit their HST refer-endum ballots. We wrote to B.C.’s chiefelectoral officer to ask for a two-week

extension to the July 22 deadline becauseof the mail delays caused by the CanadaPost lockout, and Elections B.C. agreedthat an extension was necessary.

The new deadline to return HST ballotsis Friday, Aug. 5 at 4:30 p.m. However, thisdeadline is for ballots to arrive at ElectionsB.C., not to simply be postmarked by then,as one might expect. For this reason, wewould encourage anyone who has not yetexercised their right to participate in thisimportant decision for the future of B.C. todo so right away.

We would also encourage people inrural communities to make use of theService B.C. drop-off centres if possible.There are 60 locations throughout the prov-ince (www.servicebc.gov.bc.ca/locations),and dropping your ballot off reduces therisk it will not be delivered in time or getlost in the mail. It can take up to sevenbusiness days for mail to reach its destina-tion within B.C.

Together with our New Democrat col-leagues, we have travelled around theprovince and met with countless peoplewho think the HST is an unfair tax thatwas poorly implemented, and must bescrapped by voting “yes.”

When we hear of the Liberals dolingout hundreds of thousands of taxpayerdollars to their friends and insiders to helpthem sell the tax in a $7-million effort tosave their political hides, we know BritishColumbians deserve better.

More women will be sexually assaultedas a result of styles we see today: over-exposure of breasts adding to skin-tightclothing, leaving nothing to the imagina-tion. Just my opinion.

he was out fishing.Fortunately, in this

case, some other GoodSamaritans stepped inwhen they heard the dogbarking and yelping indistress, and put a tentover the SUV and beganspraying it with cold waterwhile waiting for help.

I don’t care what thereasoning. There’s noexcuse for such blatant stu-pidity, cruelty and down-right animal abuse.

Dogs are typically

among the most loyalfriends a human can have.Given a smattering ofaffection, they’ll prettymuch follow their ownersto the end of the earth,and do anything to protecttheir human from harm.

Too bad humans don’treciprocate.

Convicting the ownerof animal cruelty seemstoo little, way too late. It’snot going to bring the dogback, and no punishmenthanded out in a Canadiancourt would ever be severe

enough to be a deterrent toothers.

So all I can do is pleadwith our readers: Nexttime you think aboutbringing your pooch alongto a festival or other sum-mer outing …

Don’t. Leave your ani-mal at home, where it canstay cool, well hydratedand comfortable.

City of New Westminster engineersresolved a water main break on SixthStreet that flooded basements of localbusinesses and forced the city to cutwater service to the area on Thursday.

“It was gushing out of the ground thismorning when we came into work and(city engineers) were panicking, tryingto figure out where it was coming from,”said James Crosty, owner of Root SourceInc. on Sixth. “It was like a river flowing

down the street.”Crosty said the water was shut off by

around 9:45 a.m., but it was doubtfulwhether some of the businesses would beable to serve customers Thursday.

Crosty said neighbouring restaurantOld Bavaria Haus had two feet of waterpooled in the basement.

Bob Jack, supervisor of water for thecity, said it was a fairly routine watermain break and repair.

“It was just an accident. The contractorhit the pipe. We had it shut off in 20 min-utes and back on in an hour-and-a-half,”he said. “These things happen.”

Crosty said the water main break hasjust exacerbated frustrations Sixth Streetbusiness owners have had since construc-tion and water main replacements beganon the street in May.

On Aug. 13 at Christ CathedralChurch at noon,Khan’s voice and tablawill reverberate offthe stained glass win-dows.

“It’s my first perfor-mance for MusicFest(Vancouver),” he said.

Khan, 37, was rec-ognized by the Cityof Edmonton afterreceiving its Salute toExcellence Award andhe made history asthe first Indian classi-cal ghazal (poetry inUrdu) and tabla playerat the National Folk Alliance andCanada Music Festivals.

“I had a natural affinitytowards rhythm,” he said as towhy he was drawn to music. “Ihad many dreams and hallucina-tions, when I was younger, aboutfour wise gurus telling me tolearn this composition and learnthis composition.”

Khan has also toured for 30years internationally as a tablaplayer and vocalist. He’s also col-

laborated and recorded with othermusicians across the globe.

“World music brings every-one from every race together,”he explained. “Being a musicianmakes me an ambassador toworld peace.”

Khan believes in the power ofmusic and sees a shift in the grow-ing popularity of world fusion.

“Music is my religion,” headded. “But Canada still needs toopen its doors to world music.”

His album, Mushtari – A LiveConcert, was recently nominat-ed for the 2011 Western CanadaMusic Awards in the World

Album of the Year cat-egory.

“I’ve been verylucky and very blessedto work with so manydifferent musicians inmy life, … and I’mhonoured that I’vebeen nominated.”

Khan has been liv-ing in New West withhis wife for the pastthree years after leav-ing Edmonton.

“We decided wewanted to expand ourhorizons,” he said.

“There’s a much bigger worldmusic scene here. We’re veryhappy.”

He also offers classes in Indianmusic.

His Aug. 13 performance willalso feature Burnaby sitar playerMohamed Assani.

Every year the population of homeless cats grows.2011 has been declared “The Year of the Cat” bya broad network of cat welfare advocates. Thisyear they are all working to bring attention to whatgovernments, animal welfare organizations andindividuals can do to improve the lives of Canada’smillions of cats. Every year, more and more cats flowinto already crowded animal shelters. It is estimatedthat considerably less than half of all cats admitted

to shelters are ever adopted. Many never make itto a shelter and die painful deaths as strays or aremistaken as feral.

• Pet owners tend to be loyal, responsible, secureand committed to having positive relationships.The choice and treatment of pets often reflectsa person’s values.

• Pet owners are usually involved in the dailyexercise of looking after their pets – throughthe fun and not-so-fun times – a sign of long-term commitment and a realistic outlook onrelationships.

• Pet owners have better general health. Havingthe company of a pet is a major stress-buster. Apet can make you laugh or offer comfort. Whenstress is relieved there’s also a drop in tension– and that can make for a happier life.

Good Reasons to Adopt or Foster a Pet

After the long rainy spring and earlysummer, the sun is finally shining. Forbook lovers, that means lazy hours readingon the beach, by a pool, or even in a patchof sunshine in your own backyard.

Summer is the perfect time to enjoya thriller that will keep you turning thepages until sunset. For a B.C. flavour, tryStill Missing by Chevy Stevens. The debutnovel from this Vancouver Island authorfeatures a woman held hostage by a psy-chopath for one terrifying year. Her ordealwill have you gripping your lawn chair interror.

For the beach, Maine by J. SullivanCourtney and The Three Weissmanns ofWestport by Cathleen Schine are made-to-order. Maine follows three generations ofwomen in the Kelleher family during theirannual pilgrimage to their seaside cottage.Tense family drama ensues as the fourmain characters struggle to get along.

For something more light-hearted,Cathleen Schine’s novel is a humorous

but heartfelt modern-day retelling of JaneAusten’s Sense and Sensibility.

For non-fiction aficionados, sip a littlehistory with your lemonade when yousavour the saga of Second World Warservice men who crash into a jungle full ofStone Age tribesmen in Lost in Shangri-La:A True Story of Survival, Adventure, and theMost Incredible Rescue Mission of World WarII by Mitchell Zuckoff.

If biographies are more your style, kickback with From This Moment On by ShaniaTwain. Meanwhile, escape the heat andtravel to the North Pole in The MagneticNorth: Notes from the Arctic Circle by SaraWheeler.

And what summer reading list wouldbe complete without the season’s mostsizzling blockbusters? Smokin’ Seventeenby Janet Evanovich, Against all Enemiesby Tom Clancy, One Summer by DavidBaldacci, and Carte Blanche by JeffreyDeaver are all sure to please fans.

Still unsure about what books to packon your vacation or stay-cation? Drop bythe library and ask one of our librarians formore suggestions.

B.C. Day is coming upon Monday, Aug. 1,a day on which we

take some time to honourour province, its past, pres-ent and future. A couple oflittle bits from our RoyalCity history seem to be inorder to mark this date.

There has been a lotof coverage of the NewWestminster Fire andRescue Services’ 150thanniversary this year, butan additional commentabout the early Hyackfirehall is appropriate.This hall sat on ColumbiaStreet between Sixth Street

and Church Street, thoughcloser to Church, on thesame side as today’s policestation. Over its lifetime, itbecame to the town and itsresidents far more than justa fire hall.

Many important meet-ings were held in this hall,as well as performancesand concerts, parties andgatherings, events of socialand cultural importance.It was a welcoming placefor special visitors to thecity, a place to gather aftera funeral, before moving onto the cemetery, and even aplace for early oral schoolexams, at which family andfriends attended to see howstudents did on particularsubjects.

Because this was a rela-tively small, simple wood-en structure, it seemed todisappear among the largermulti-storeyed, brick andstone structures that sur-

rounded it, and some aresurprised to learn that itremained in action untilit was destroyed with therest of downtown in thecity’s Great Fire of 1898.An intriguing photographtaken during that blazeshows a tongue of flamedescending on the hall,basically only its cupolaand finial visible in the pic-ture, with the caption “thelast of the Hyack Hall.” Inalmost a blink of an eye, itvanished into history.

Another local bit of his-tory takes us back to thefall of 1886 and a streetjunction that many willrecognize, where EighthStreet used to connect toFront Street. Today thiswould be at the very backof Hyack Square. Beyondthis were docks along theriver’s edge, while to oneside was the early woodentrain station. This is today’s

Keg site with some smallbuildings and businesseson Columbia and Eighthcompleting the scene.

What was being con-templated at the time isnot the curious part of thisitem, but rather the extentof coverage of what wasbeing considered. The citywas to install on a tall polea 450-candlepower lamp,very powerful for its day, atthe Eighth and Front water-front spot where it wouldserve as a welcoming direc-tion beacon for incomingshipping.

It was considered thatit would also cast useablelight for the whole areafrom Front Street to BegbieStreet effectively lightingup the entire corner. Todaylighting such as this is com-monplace, but in 1886 thiswould have been hugelydramatic.

Happy B.C. Day!

◗ IN THE GAMELacrosse a learning curve for girls ◗P18Suns shine in 3-on-3 hoop tourney ◗P18

Junior ’Bellies move on to finalNow comes the hard

part.The New Westminster

Salmonbellies got by thefirst round of B.C. JuniorLacrosse League playoffs,downing the persistentDelta Islanders 11-7 inGame 4 of their best-of-fivesemifinal series at LadnerArena on Wednesday.

Daniel McQuadegot back into the lineupand made an immedi-ate impact, scoring NewWestminster’s first twogoals after Delta hadopened the scoring in thelast three playoff outings.

McQuade finishedwith a game-high sevenpoints, including an assiston Brandon Goodwin’shat trick goal and eventualgame-winner late in themiddle period.

The victory gave NewWestminster the playoffseries win 3-1 over Delta.

The Salmonbellies willnow await the outcome ofSaturday’s Game 3between the CoquitlamAdanacs and the VictoriaShamrocks.

The undefeated A’s cur-renty lead that best-of-fiveseries 2-0 following lop-sided wins over the fourth-place ’Rocks.

Game 3 is at the PoirierRecreation Centre inCoquitlam on Saturday.Game begins at 2:30 p.m.

In Ladner, FrankieScigliano was stellar ingoal, stopping 48 Islandershots as Delta outshot thevisitors by a wide margin55-43, including 21-12 in adesperate attempt to come-back in the final frame.

Right-sidersTylerDigbyand Keegan Bal both hadbig nights. Digby talliedhis second consecutive hattrick, while Bal accountedfor five points, including

his second power-playgoal in the post season.

Goodwin also collect-ed five points on the leftside, while partner MarkNegrin had a pair of goalsin the game.

“I think we’re playingwell right now,” said NewWestminster head coachDan Perreault.

But getting into the B.C.junior finals is the least ofNew Westminster’s wor-ries. Now comes the seem-ingly impossible task ofdefeating the juggernautAdanacs in a seven-gamefinal series.

New Westminster metthe A’s three times in regu-lar season play and cameout on the losing side ineach outing.

The first was a 9-4 lossin the league opener.

The other two games,coming a week apart inmid-June, appeared closerthan they really were.

On June 8 in Coquitlam,the A’s jumpedout to a 7-1lead and coast-ed to a 10-8result againstthe goaltend-ing of BrandonMulliganand SpencerEngland.

The fol-lowing week,the juniorSalmonbellies surrenderedsix unanswered goals in thefinal period and lost a 10-6outcome with Scigliano inthe net at Queen’s ParkArena.

Since then, Coquitlamhas been barely touchable.

Nanaimo was the lastteam to score in doubledigits against the defend-ing Minto Cup champs.

No team has scoredmore than fivepoints againstthe A’s sinceJune 26.

In fact,Victoria hasbarely made animpact on thescoreline in itstwo outingsto date in theplayoff semi-finals, losing

18-4 and 15-2 in back-to-back weekend games.

But Perreault believesthe closer a team comes toa Minto Cup appearance,the less predictable are theoutcomes.

“I’m comfortable

with the way we played(Coquitlam),” saidPerreault. “I think it’s goingto be a series that comesdown to good defence andgood goaltending. … Butit’s a seven-game seriesand it starts with Game1.”

That opening gamecould come as early asWednesday, Aug. 3, ifthe Adanacs sweep theShamrocks on Saturday.

“You work hard all yearfor a opportunity to getinto the western final. It’swhat we wanted to haveand we’re looking forwardto the challenge,” Perreaultsaid.

“Anything can happenin a series. We know whatis ahead is the Minto Cup,which everyone strivesfor.”

Paul vanPeenen/THE RECORD

A blur of finesse: New Westminster Salmonbellie righthander Keegan Bal, in white, had two goals and threeassists in a Game 3 loss to Delta on Tuesday. Bal garnered another five points in Wednesday’s 11-7 win overthe Islanders, giving him a total of 14 points in four playoff games to date.

WLA’sbumpercrop ofrookies

This season’s WesternLacrosse Association rook-ie of the year race could beone of the most intriguingin a long time.

The Burnaby Lakers,which held three of the thisseason’s first-round draftpicks, are holding a clutchof possible first-year con-tenders.

Although first over-all pick Matt Beers of lastyear’s Minto Cup-winningCoquitlam Adanacs wassidelined with an injuryall this season, third over-all Colton Clark appearsto hold the upper hand atthis stage of the game.

Clark, a late seasontrade last year to the NewWestminster Salmonbelliesfrom Nanaimo, has fitin nicely with Burnaby’srebuilding club.

The 6-3 righthandercurrently leads the seniorA team in scoring and isninth overall in the leaguewith 19 goals and 32 assists,including two game-win-ners.

But perhaps moreimportantly, Clark hasbecome an integral partof the Lakers’ league-bestpower play.

Together with sopho-moreleftsiderDaneStevensand Scott Tinning, Clarkhas helped the Lakers spe-cial teams go from fifthlast season to first overallwith a 38.78 per cent scor-ing average on the powerplay.

Clark currently has sixgoals while on power anda league-high 17 assists.Stevens, a fourth over-all pick in 2010, leads theWLA with 16 power-playmarkers. Tinning has putup another 18 points withBurnaby enjoying the extraman.

Another equally strongcontender is Burnaby’sthird-round steal, DanLewis, who has the fourth-best numbers amongWLA goalies to date andhas arguably played aswell or better down thestretch than any one of thefirst-years, and is steadilyimproving with each addi-tional outing.

DAN PERREAULTNew Westminster coach



year’s Minto Cup cham-pionships in Coquitlam,has posted an 8.32 goalsagainst average and a .825save percentage, despiterecording a 4-6-1 recordin his first season in thesenior league.

Last week in Victoria,Lewis was easily theteam’s best player again,stopping 55 shots in an11-6 loss.

His asset to the teamis not just restricted tostopping the ball either, ashe has contributed to theBurnaby offence as well,assisting on 11 Laker goalsin 13 games.

Lewis also leads theLakers in three-star bal-loting after last weekend’sthird-star mention againstthe Shamrocks.

Another first-yearkeeper that is bound togarner votes is 6-7 formerBurnaby junior BrodieMacDonald, a secondoverall draft pick of theLangley Thunder.

In 12 games this sea-son, MacDonald has a 5-

2-2 record, while postingan 8.74 goals against and a.818 save percentage.

MacDonald is currentlyseventh overall in three-star voting, one pointahead of Lewis.

Chris Seidel, a backupto Lewis with the juniorAdanacs last season, has a5-3 record with the MapleRidge Burrards, whichtook him third overall inthe 2011 draft.

Fourth overall pickRobbie Campbell has putup a point a game in 13outings this season for thesenior Adanacs and hasfive goals on 16 shots com-ing out of the back end.

Second-rounder RileyLoewen of Burnaby hasn’treally lit the senior leagueon fire after a stellar juniorcareer, but is currently in21st place in WLA scor-ing with the Maple RidgeBurrards.

Other picks with theirstar on the rise are third-round Langley defenderNick Bilic, who has playedin all 16 games for theThunder. The former

Burnaby junior has fivegoals on 15 shots, includ-ing one game-winningtally.

Burnaby’s first-round,fifth overall pick, ScottJones, while getting intothe Laker lineup late thisseason, has six goals in hisfirst nine games, includingthree on the power play.

But perhaps the playerwho will garner the mostattention from just a half-dozen WLA games thisseason is 2010 first overallpick Kevin Crowley.

The former NewWestminster junior starsat out last season beforebeing dealt to the seniorSalmonbellies fromBurnaby in the offseason.

In just six games to date,Crowley, who plays profield lacrosse back east aswell, has scored 14 times,including three game-win-ners, while averaging fourpoints per outing.

Crowley has also beennamed a game star in allbut two of the six leaguegames he’s played todate.

One shoe off: Team B.C. midget player Kyra Bradley, middle, keeps working despitea footwear malfunction against Team Atlantic at the girls’ nationals.

Larry Wright/THE RECORD

Last season, XeniaDumont wasn’t really sureif she was good enough toplay for Team B.C.’s ban-tam girls’ lacrosse team.

Fast forward one yearand the 14-year-old St.Thomas More Collegiatestudent is doing just nice-ly, helping the provincialgirls’ team to a share offirst place at the Canadiannational championshipsbeing held at Queen’s ParkArena this week.

Dumont has scored fourgoals and added two assistsfor B.C.’s to date, andwas in the lineup for thegold-medal game againstOntario played Thursday(after Record deadlines).

“I didn’t try out last yearbecause, I don’t know, Iwas on the younger side,”said Dumont after scoringa goal in B.C.’s 3-2 loss toOntario on Monday.

“I lost a lot of confidenceplaying. I felt I was neverdoing something right. … Iguess I changed.”

Part of that change wasaccepting the challenge ofmaking the B.C. team.

New Westminster coachNaomi Walser, an assistantwith the B.C. girls’ midg-et team, said teaching thefiner points of the gameto the girls takes differentmethods.

“Girls don’t generallyshowboat with their sticklike the boys do. So witha lot of girls, we start withstick skills,” said Walser,who grew up playinglacrosse in Ontario beforesettling on the West Coast15 years ago. “(Girls) arelearning to be fluent withboth hands.”

What’s interesting iswatching the dynamicunfold and how girls reactwhen they know they cando a skill well, Walsersaid.

“When (learning) comes,it opens up a whole newopportunity for adventurefor them,” she said.

The proof is evident.

Tim Stephens' Astral Reflections July 31 - Aug. 6, 2011★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★

Aries March 21 - April 19: Ah, romance –Sunday (and the weeks ahead) bring a light, friendly,flirtatious, fun kind of attraction that you’ve neverquite experienced before. (But you will, many timesin the eight years ahead.) Depending on your ageand situation, romance could be replaced by creativesurges, sports, vacation, joys with children, orspeculative pursuits. Remember, don’t start anythingimportant before Aug. 26 – except this weekend’slove affair. (It will turn into a puzzler, but still worth it.)Tackle routine chores Monday/Tuesday. Relationshipsbless and puzzle, Wednesday onward.Taurus April 20-May 20: Delay big new starts untilAug. 26 onward. A sweet, beneficial aura settles overyour home life, property issues, gardening, retirementplans, security concerns, and with parent-childrenissues and projects. (These are especially luckySunday.) Though you might feel a bit sluggish, theweeks ahead will be very active. Themes of beautyand love toy with your thoughts, like the breeze witha curtain, especially Monday/Tuesday. Old flamesallure, then are gone. You can accomplish important(not new) chores Wednesday to Saturday, but bediplomatic, co-operative Friday/Saturday.Gemini May 21-June 20: This week startswith a great weekend (July 30 and 31). Love andsociety’s approval seem to mix, though this takesplace on a light, friendly note rather than withromance’s mad flush. Your conscience is pleased. Atrip pleases, a friendship could blossom, Sunday orWednesday/Thursday (and all month). Still, certain“disagreements” of belief, religion, law, philosophylurk, and could spring out swiftly, Monday, Thursdayor Friday. You’re prone to make casual commentswhich others take seriously. Start no new projectsbefore Aug. 26 – they would fail. Money’s coming– bank it!

Cancer June 21-July 22: Start nothing newbefore Aug. 26. Stick with ongoing projects andrelationships, or reprise past ones. (An acquaintancefrom the past might contact you.) The weeks aheadhold good money luck, especially in the spheresof property, family and friends. (Friends andconventions are excellent conduits to employmentor more clients his year – to June 2012 – if you’reseeking. But wait until Aug. 26 onward to seek thenew. ) That money luck might “show up” Sunday,Monday or Thursday.Wednesday starts seven weeksof sexual magnetism! Romance (only) beckonsFriday/Saturday.Leo July 23-Aug. 22: Careful until Sept. 19– legal matters can work against you. In far travel,international, cultural, educational and ethicalareas, work with institutions and civil servants– otherwise, these zones can restrict or burden you.For the immediate few weeks ahead – to Aug. 26– avoid starting any major new project. (Then, fromAug. 26 to Sept. 19, form plans to take significantaction in these zones – far travel, etc. – during thelate September to Nov. 10 period.) Despite all these“wait” messages, your charisma, energy and moodclimb mightily now, especially Sunday!Virgo Aug. 23-Sept. 22: Avoid initiating newprojects, relationships or broad lifestyle changesbefore Aug. 26, especially this week. (This weekruns smoothly, but the indecision that a “new start”would cause could be deep and have repercussionsbeyond this month.) In general, you’re a bit tired forseveral weeks ahead. Spend this time contemplating,resting, renewing old acquaintance, resolving oldhurts and putting your emotional and spiritual worldson an even keel. You’re wise now, can understandthings that eluded you in previous years. A socialcontact will pique your sexual interest soon.

Libra Sept. 23-Oct. 22: Start nothing new beforeAug. 26. Soon (next week onward) welcome facesfrom the past will enter, among them, perhaps, aformer light romance. But this week (especiallySunday!) the accent is fully on present company– social delights, light romance, popularity,organizations, politics, conventions. Don’t makeany big new relationships, though. You might haveto make a choice over the month ahead, betweenintimacy/sex and friendship. Bosses and VIPs areimpatient, temperamental for seven weeks: bediplomatic! You’re the star, “in charge” Wednesday/Thursday! Speak up!Scorpio Oct. 23-Nov. 21: Start nothing new,important before Aug. 26. Stick with ongoingpeople and projects, or reprise those from the past– especially in career and status zones. A formerboss, investor, or career role might return soon.(Since you’re in a year of lucky money opportunities,this “return” might have a good money benefit.) Yourreputation is on the line, so have safety nets in place:Plan B, extra supplies, back-up machinery, etc. Keepyour appointment calendar “slim.” People in charge,authorities and parents treat you favourably. Avoidlegal hassles for seven weeks.Sagittarius Nov. 22-Dec. 21: A sweet, mellowmonth of enlightenment, travel, culture, learning andlove lies ahead. You understand the need for a socialor moral code. Embrace wider learning, the hint ofidea, rather than specifics (these can be all awry).Re-check details, addresses, money amounts now toAug. 26 – and start no new projects or relationshipsbefore then. If you’re a student, wait until Aug. 26onward to make you final choice of courses, if youcan. Sunday’s remarkable – love is available, so isa great teacher! Ambition succeeds Monday. Hopesand popularity soar Wednesday/Thursday.

Capricorn Dec. 22-Jan. 19: Start no new projectsor relationships before Aug. 26. A very interestingmonth facesyou,filledwithquietbutpotentmysteries,possibilities, financial keys, golden secrets, intimatebonds and lifestyle choices. And yet – you shouldn’tstart anything new! The viable stuff will come fromthe past, or from ongoing situations. Keep an eyeon indecision, missed deadlines, miscalculatedprofits…but do delve deep and see what’s there.(Especially Sunday, when money is “in the ground.”)Someone seriously contemplates letting you intotheir privacy. Hopes rise at week’s end.Aquarius Jan. 20-Feb. 18: The general accentlies on opportunity, fresh horizons, partnerships,agreements and disputes, negotiation and litigation.You generally like this area, you feel a certain lifeforce or vivacity here. Sunday could be spectacularin these things – be open, forward, approach others,be diplomatic, eager to join. In some cases, loveoccurs! Remember, though, not to start anything newand important before Aug. 26. So those opportunitiesmight come from the past, or the fresh air come frombreaking old chains. Secrets yield profits Monday.Higher-ups are watching Friday/Saturday.Pisces Feb. 19-March 20: Separate routinechores from new, difficult or unfamiliar ones. Tackleonly the former before Aug. 26. You might haveto clean up an old mess, or re-assume a formeremployment role. A nice reward accompanies theseactivities. Co-workers are pleasant, affectionate. Ifsomeone offers you a different job Sunday, grab it!But DO NOT buy machinery, a car, electronics, etc. –even clothes – before Aug. 26. Your romantic sceneis going to heat up soon. That’s better than chasinga money gamble that lures you. An ex-partner orspouse might appear – it’s short. Secrets midweek.
