Thanks to an unanticipated windfall, three major parks and

recreation projects will go ahead in the next year, Rivers Day is no longer in jeopardy, and hours of operation for recreation centres will not be cut.

The windfall comes from $200,000 in unanticipated growth in the Township.

It means that should the bylaw containing the 2011-15 financial plan, which includes the budget, be approved, major projects will go ahead.

These are an artificial turf field for Aldergrove, a field house for

Willoughby Community Park, and a park for the Yorkson neighbour-hood of Willoughby.

These projects will be paid for out of reserves, with the proviso that those funds be repaid over five years.

Ambassadorsare back

The Downtown Langley Ambassadors program kicks off its seventh season today (Wednesday.)

The ambassadors will gather at 2 p.m. in McBurney Lane to listen to music by The Lounge Brothers and celebrate the beginning of their season. They will be joined by representatives from all levels of government to bring greetings to the ambassadors.

The Downtown Langley Ambassador pro-gram started in 2004 under the leadership of Teri James, and Lilianne Fuller came on as the co-ordinator in 2005. The program, which has 26 members this year, is the only all-volunteer program in the province and won a Best in the West award in 2007.

The Ambassadors’ primary responsibility is to show hospitality in downtown Lan-gley. But they also undertake some crime prevention activities.

In association with ICBC, the volunteers participate in the Lock Out Auto Crime Program. While the volunteers are on their walks, they report graffiti and take down unauthorized signage. This ensures that the city always looks clean and inviting to both tourists and local people alike.

The Ambassador program runs from April to September. For more information about the program or to be an ambassador, call 604-539-0133.

LIBERAL OPEN HOUSE

The Liberal campaign to elect Rebecca Darnell as Langley’s next MP is holding an open house for members of the commu-nity on Monday, April 18.

The open house takes place at her cam-paign office, 6351 197 Street, and starts at 6 p.m. All are welcome to attend.

John GORDON/Langley TimesFuture students at Lynn Fripps Elementary in Willoughby couldn’t wait for speeches — Avery Zazula, Kaitlyn and Chase O’Grady got right to work at a sod-turning for the new school on Tuesday morning. Helping are (left to right)board of education chair Steve Burton, Township Mayor Rick Green, Fort Langley-Aldergrove MLA Rich Coleman, Simon van der Goes (Fripps’ widower) and Education Minister George Abbott.

Anxious future students helpget school construction underwayGARY AHUJATimes Reporter

With the help of some overly-anxious future students, ground was officially bro-ken for the Lynn Fripps Elementary School in Willoughby.

Local and provincial politicians, as well as neighbourhood parents and their young children, were on hand for the ceremony on Tuesday morning. Simon van der Goes, whose late wife the school is named after, was also at the event.

The Kindergarten to Grade 7 school, which is expected to cost $15 million, is slated to open in September 2012. It is on 203 Avenue, east of 208 Street,

“It is always delightful when we can launch construction of a new school,” said Education Minister George Abbott.

“This is an investment in our future.”“They are clearly intent on getting

started,” Abbott added, about the three young children — Avery Zazula, 5, and Kaitlyn, 5, and Chase O’Grady, 4 — who

had their kid-sized shovels and were hard at work digging a hole.

“Breaking ground on this new school brings us closer to be able to provide more than 500 additional student spaces for fami-lies in this community,” Abbott said.

“We’re adding extra classrooms to meet the needs of a growing community.”

The school will have three all-day Kin-dergarten classes and spots for 60 students, and 18 classrooms for Grades 1-7, with space for 450 students.

There will also be a neighbourhood learning centre.

School board chair Steve Burton thanked the local MLAs — Rich Coleman and Mary Polak — for their efforts in helping the school get built.

“We know that the school and its neigh-bourhood learning centre will become a hub where people gather to learn, access services, share ideas and get to know each other,” he said.

“We’ve worked hard to make sure govern-ment understands the needs of our growing

community,” Polak said in a press release. She was not present at the ceremony.

“Now our kids can look forward to a new school in their neighbourhood.”

This is the fourth elementary school in the Willoughby area and it is expected to be at capacity when it opens.

After pushing for and getting this school built, through partnering with the school district, the Township and the ministry of education, Coleman said the next step of the plan is to get a middle school built in Willoughby.

“We know we will fill up another school,” he said. “Now we can concentrate on the middle school, which is next for this area.”

“The ministry in conjunction with its partners, is looking at the overall needs of Langley and Surrey,” Abbott said. “They are rapidly growing school districts, so we are looking at their needs.”

“We know the growth in this area is not likely to decline,” Abbott added.

“We need to be thinking about it in terms of growth and demand.”

BRENDA ANDERSONTimes Reporter

A Q&A session with Langley’s five federal candidates, held at Langley Seniors Village, soon developed into a debate over the state of Canada’s health care system on Monday afternoon.

Among three questions put to the speakers was the issue of federal health care funding and increasing wait times for medical services.

The residents’ council at the Willoughby seniors’ residence drew up the list — which also included questions about pensions and political accountability — ahead of an afternoon visit from the candidates vying to be Langley’s representative in Ottawa following the May 2 vote.

Speaking first to about 30 of the seniors, Liberal candidate Rebecca Darnell said

that Canada’s ‘world famous’ health care system has been ‘severely neglected’ by the Harper government since it took office in 2006, leading to unacceptable wait times.

A big reason for that, she said, is that not enough doctors and nurses are being trained to keep up with demand.

One solution, Darnell suggested, is to make it easier for foreign-trained health professionals to practise in Canada.

“I’ve told people if you

want a doctor, call a cab,” she said, because many foreign-trained physicians are working as taxi drivers while they wait to be accredited.

NDP candidate Piotr Majkowski, who works as a nurse, suggested that health care dollars are simply being wasted.

“Health spending has to be directed,” he said.

“I get upset when health authorities spend money not on health.

“We don’t need fancy hospitals. We need nurses and doctors.”

He called the recent treatment of patients in a Tim Hortons at Royal Columbian Hospital “an embarrassment” and added that longer waits for care mean patients often have to be treated for worse conditions.

Government’s priorities are wrong, Majkowski said, when millions are being spent on fighter jets, while seniors live in poverty.

“When we fund people out of poverty, health care will be cheaper.”

“Throwing more money at (health care), as the last two governments have done, has not done much to reduce wait times,” said Green party candidate Carey Poitras. While there is a need for more doctors and medical equipment in Canada, she said focusing on preventative care and providing more long-term care beds in proper facilities will be key to reducing the cost of health care.

Taking several opportunities to point out that this is an unnecessary $300 million election spurred on by an opposition coalition, Conservative MP Mark Warawa agreed there is a need for better

ADVERTORIAL

PSA tests are done on men to check the health of their prostate gland. When you are getting your PSA checked, it’s a good idea to refrain from sex for at least two days prior to the test. The ejaculation process may result in a higher PSA reading.

Autism is a serious neurological disorder in which the outcomes can be improved if it is diagnosed early. A doctor in Tennessee has developed a method of analyzing the sounds and vocalizing patterns of very young children to determine if autism may be present. Evidently, the number and types of sounds made can help make an autism diagnosis earlier.

You’ve probably heard people saying that they seem to have lost some height as they get older. It’s true this can happen. Those little pads (disks) between vertebrae in the spine become drier and thinner with age and people actually will become shorter. Evidently, regular exercise can help slow this process.

Young people seem to be getting the message of the dangers of unprotected sex. However, for people over the age of 50, the message doesn’t seem to be getting through as well. It is especially important when multiple partners are involved no matter what your age.

health care in Canada.He pointed to a $30 billion

(33 per cent) increase in federal funding for health care provided by the current government, but added that Ottawa counts on the provinces to set health care priorities and deliver service.

“Some questions are more appropriate for an MLA or provincial minister.”

However, he pointed to

two instances where the Conservatives were able to take a direct role in health care in B.C.

Warawa alluded to items in the current federal budget that are aimed at improving health care — including improvements to palliative care.

“But we need to pass the budget,” he said, in a reference to the non-

confidence vote that led to the coming election.

The government fell over the contempt issue, not over a failed budget, Darnell shot back.

Also in the budget, which remains in limbo, are measures to help seniors, such as changes to the Guaranteed Income Supplement (GIS), said Warawa, in response to the

seniors’ question on pensions.“It’s part of the package, it’s

part of our budget, to ensure it’s increased.

“We need to honour seniors and ensure they have increased pensions.”

“The Harper government has neglected seniors and neglected pensions,” said Darnell.

A Liberal government under Michael Ignatieff would enhance and increase what’s available under the Canada Pension Plan as well as the GIS, she said.

Poitras echoed the need to increase the Guaranteed Income Supplement, while Majkowski reiterated his party’s mandate “to take every senior in Canada out of poverty.”

Craig Nobbs, a candidate for the Pirate party, spoke last, focusing on the main plank in his party’s platform — copyright and patent issues.

The Pirate party is committed to a free and open government, he said, that would allow people access to information without having to put forward a Freedom of Information request.

Nobbs added his party would ensure Canadians’ medical records “won’t be shared with agencies that don’t need them.”

He warned that there is a bill in the works that would see vitamins and other non-prescription medications become available by prescription only — leading to filling fees not entirely covered by MSP.

Councillor Kim Richter had ques-tioned Langley’s “huge surplus,” arguing that it suggests too much had been put away in previous years. But surplus funds, finance director Hilary Tsikayi explained, are used to finance one-time cap-ital projects, thus reducing the need to raise taxes or borrow money.

The extra money also means that council will not have to cut services, reduce costs or increase user fees.

Axing the hugely popular Riv-ers Day, held every September in Williams Park, closing the dem-onstration garden in Murrayville, and extending the annual mainte-nance closure of the Blair Recre-ation Centre from two weeks to three, have been avoided.

The $200,000 bonanza means that the property tax increase will be kept at 3.95 per cent.

At a special budget session that preceded Monday’s regular schedule of public meetings, Mayor Rick Green and

Councillor Kim Richter opposed the budget.

Neither supports an increase of that magnitude.

Green said that on April 18, when council is expected to give the first three readings to the budget bylaw and annual five-year financial plan, he will expand upon the reason for his opposition.

Green, who was elected to office in 2008 on a platform that opposed prop-erty tax increases, said: “It’s a staff budget. It’s not a council budget.”

Richter argued that if staff “can come up with these extra dollars at the last minute” to build the recreation projects and eliminate $141,000 in cuts, “then I think there is room in this budget for no tax increase.”

At a recent budget meeting, Richter said that several years of five percent and four percent increases cannot continue.

“For some people, five per cent is very high and their wages have not gone up five per cent,” she said.

The budget increase is due to the elements: wages and benefits, which add $2.3 million to the budget, the police contract for $1.4 million

more, and $705,000 to convert Murrayville fire hall to a full-time facility.

These elements “should be sig-nificantly lower next year,” Tsi-kayi told Township recently.

She advised against fluctuating tax increases, arguing that “regu-lar small property tax increases raise more money than large spo-radic increases.”

Langley Township council paid tribute to a number of out-standing people during the vol-unteer appreciation and awards evening at the Langley Events Centre on Thursday.

This year’s recipient of the Eric Flowerdew volunteer of the year award was Jan Morgan.

A member of Soroptimist Inter-national of the Langleys since 1988, Morgan embodies the qualities the Flowerdew award seeks to honour — outstanding dedication to the promotion of quality of life through creative, cultural, physical, or social pur-suits, and to the enhancement of the Township’s community spirit.

Each year, she gathers a team of Soroptimists to bowl for Big Brothers Big Sisters, organizes a Remembrance Day wreath to remember fallen soldiers, co-ordinates various fundraisers to help women in crisis, and puts her artistic talents to work creat-ing bras and helping to organize Bras for a Cause, which raises funds for women with cancer.

She has also helped the chil-dren and families of Douglas Park Community School for more than 15 years, co-ordinating the hot breakfast program and help-ing with fundraising events such as the annual garage sale. As well, she supports her husband John in the Langley Central Rotary club and has been awarded the Paul Harris Fellowship for her “service above self.”

Langley Christmas Bureau and Downtown Langley Ambassador Program also benefit from her time and dedication. As well, she helps with the Rotary Wine Fes-tival and Breakfast with Santa, adorns the promotional window spaces and decorates the venue for Bras for a Cause, co-ordinates fundraisers including the Arts Alive hot dog stand and bean

soup sale, and assists at the Big Brothers Big Sisters golf tour-nament. She is always the first to offer to lend a hand, and is known for her energy, enthusi-asm, and wonderful disposition.

The Pete Swensson outstanding community youth award, given to a Langley student in recognition of his or her athletic, scholastic, and community efforts, has gone to Sunny Bui, a Grade 12 honour student at Aldergrove Community Secondary.

Bui has played junior and senior basketball and rugby, making the rugby Fraser Valley and provincial qualifiers, play-ing on the Fraser Valley District Championship team, and being named his school’s most com-mitted player in rugby backs. He has earned the AA Athletic Award every year since Grade 8, along with the athletic director’s award and an outstanding leader-ship award for basketball.

A youth representative on the Township’s Recreation, Culture, and Parks Advisory Committee, he also serves on the Town-

ship’s Youth Advisory Commit-tee. He has placed in the top 15 per cent of students in the district and was awarded a diploma from the French Min-istry of Education. He currently volunteers at Abbotsford Menno Hospital, helped with the B.C. Summer Games, and served as a spirit leader at his school for three years.

He was part of the Thunder Down Under Australia Ruby Tour in 2009-2010, has received a superintendent’s award for his excellent work habits, and was a School District 35 leadership conference spirit leader and organizer.

The John and Muriel Arnason volunteers of the year award honours two people who are advocates of literacy, culture, and learning, and work together as a team to make the Township a better place through charitable, philanthropic, or other means.

This year’s recipients were Joan and Joe Topolewski.

Since moving to Langley in 1973, the Topolewskis have spent thousands of volunteer hours keeping their community informed and educated.

Known as the “do-some” two-some, they have helped the Lang-ley RCMP for years, participating in programs such as Block Watch, performing foot patrols around Willowbrook Shopping Centre, and helping at bike rodeos and other community events.

The couple has been honoured by ICBC and were recognized by the provincial government for their years of crime prevention service. They have been Block Watch co-ordinators in their mobile home park and taken part in Local Government Aware-ness Day, and Joe was respon-sible for repairing, painting, and hauling the Bobby Block Watch house trailer.

WE SAY

Coleman on the job

Fort Langley-Aldergrove MLA Rich Coleman has become known as the “go to” guy in the provincial

cabinet. His latest assignment — as the new energy minister, he is to get to the bottom of what’s behind BC Hydro’s proposal for a 50 per cent rate increase over the next five years.

As usual, Coleman isn’t wasting any time. He has had discussions with the top management at Hydro, and has now appointed a three-member panel to review its spending plans.

He has made it clear that the provincial government, which is Hydro’s sole shareholder, wants to see an approach that doesn’t lean quite so heavily on Hydro ratepayers — those of us who use electricity on a daily basis.

Coleman’s tough questions on our behalf are welcome, and are the most tangible symbol that government under new Premier Christy Clark will be different from government under her predecessor Gordon Campbell.

Clark has pledged to look at fee boosts, rate hikes and taxes from a “families first” perspective, and clearly it is not in the best interests of families to pay 50 per cent more for electricity within five years.

There are a number of other areas within the provincial government’s purview that need such intensive scrutiny. Among them are ferry fares; MSP premiums; the HST rate (assuming that the tax survives the upcoming referendum) and property taxes, paid to both municipalities and TransLink.

Taxpayers are feeling pressured on all sides — from MSP premium boosts to four to five per cent property tax increases. Most of them have not seen wage raises for some time, and many are on fixed incomes. The province has to do more to look out for their interests than it has.

At the same time, the province must foster a good economic climate and that means Hydro, as just one example, must have an up-to-date power system in place. That requires major capital expenditures.

Perhaps the province could look at how W.A.C. Bennett financed some of Hydro’s early growth — through parity bonds which allowed Hydro to borrow from B.C. residents, rather than saddle all ratepayers with higher power bills, to pay for capital improvements.

Voters elect MLAs to look out for their interests. It’s good to see Coleman doing just that in his new position, and to see the focus of the BC Liberal government change to become more interested in the economic welfare of all B.C. residents.

THEY SAY

Hockey is tough

And so ends Chilliwack’s first flirtation with a Western Hockey League franchise – not with the

celebration of a championship win, or even the hopeful expectation of a next season, but with the odour of a relationship gone sour.

The WHL has finally confirmed what few people doubted: that the Chilliwack Bruins are in the process of being sold. Formally, the deal is not yet done. But practically, it looks certain.

The business of hockey clearly is a tough one. The arrival of the AHL’s Abbotsford Heat just down the road certainly didn’t help the Bruins’ cause. In 2008-09, the season prior to the Heat’s debut, the Bruins averaged 4,073 fans per game. They suffered a precipitous drop to 3,260 in 2009/10.

The WHL’s confirmation of the Bruins’ sale leaves Chilliwack hockey fans waiting for the other skate to drop.

Indications are that Chilliwack will have a team of some kind. Certainly Bruins minority owner Moray Keith would want that. His Chiefs Development Group holds the 20-year lease on the Prospera Centre. And not only does it make good business sense to have a tenant, it’s part of the lease agreement with the City of Chilliwack.

The Prince George Cougars are struggling with their own attendance woes and was one of the WHL teams rumoured to be heading to Chilliwack, but the team’s vice-president says they are staying put. The Kootenay Ice was another team rumoured as a possibility.

If a WHL team finds its way to Chilliwack this fall, it truly will be “a building year” – not only for the team, but also for the relationships bruised by this awkward and ungainly divorce. Fans would welcome another season of major junior hockey, but that support will be tempered.

Sports franchises rely on two things: fan support (preferably through season tickets) and corporate support. Both commodities have been challenged.

Election campaign starts to gel More information coming about local candidates

The first great debate of party leaders is now over — it took place at 4 p.m. Tuesday.

This will likely crystallize attention among those who plan to vote in the May 2 federal election.

The great challenge is to reach those who do not plan to vote. Voting turnout in Canadian elections has been on a downward path for more than 20 years, and given the lack of substance thus far in the campaign, there is little incentive for a person already not inclined to vote to change their ways.

I recently took a look at a fascinating snapshot of voting differences across the country. I was surprised to learn that young people in Quebec vote in greater numbers than in other parts of the country, and that Newfoundland voters are not inclined to take part in federal elections — even seniors, who are always among the most committed voters.

It was also interesting to learn that the highest voter turnout in the country was in a suburban, affluent, francophone Montreal riding — a riding that consistently returns Bloc Quebecois MPs to Ottawa.

One thing that did not surprise me as much was that voter turnout is consistently poor in northern ridings across the country. People feel very disconnected from government in such places, and a lower percentage of First Nations people (who live in northern areas) tend to vote.

Langley’s voter turnout is middle of the road. In the last election in 2008, it was 62 per cent, as compared to the national average of 59.1 per cent. Voter turnout nationally dropped 5.6 per cent from the 2006 election, while in Langley it

dropped four per cent.There are many committed vot-

ers here — particularly seniors and longtime residents. They will be at the polls on voting day, or show up at an advance poll.

Those less likely to vote will be newcomers to the area, who are less familiar with the candidates; younger people, many of whom have little interest in politics; and parents with young families, who are very busy with work, home, school, children’s activities and a host of other things. At that busy time of life, something has to give — and often it is voting.

We have five candidates to choose from in Langley. Three of them have offices and are easy to reach.

Rebecca Darnell is running for the Liberals. Her campaign office is at 6351 197 Street and can be reached at 604-533-8436.

Piotr Majkowski is the NDP candidate. His campaign office is at 20443 Fraser Highway. The telephone number is 604-530-3043.

Mark Warawa is running for the Conservatives, His campaign office is at 114-6080 200 Street. The phone number is 604-534-1160.

Also running are Carey Poitras of the Green Party and Craig Nobbs of the Pirate Party of Canada.

All the candidates can also be found on the Internet, with specific campaign web pages, Fasebook accounts and other web locations.

The Times will be featuring more information about the candidates in coming issues, and cov-ering several of the all-candidate meetings which are planned. There will be plenty of information for readers.

Tolling should not be expandedEditor: I am quite concerned about the tolls

being put on these new bridges, and perhaps some of the older ones, as a means to pay for the new bridges. People who must cross those bridges for work on a daily basis will be squeezed to the breaking point financially, not to mention those on low and fixed incomes.

This may well spark many unions to demand pay increases to assist employees who use those bridges on a daily basis. It is very evident that this Liberal government and TransLink decided to tear down the existing Port Mann bridge, which is a good bridge, to force people to pay tolls both ways on the new bridge.

An economist at UBC said that all bridges and tunnels should be tolled. That is ridiculous. Perhaps it may not affect him, or else he has lots of money to pay those tolls.

No doubt, TransLink and the Liberal govern-

ment have considered tolling the Massey tun-nel and all the bridge crossings over the Fraser River, and those coming from the North Shore as well. This means they are getting desperate.

These new bridges and the road construction are part of the infrastructure of B.C. and are there for everyone in B.C., and visitors as well. The Sea to Sky highway had a billion dollar improvement on it, and is free for all to use, with no tolls. Could that be considered preferential treatment for the wealthy who like to ski?

Various new roads and bridges, and ferries in the Interior and the rest of B.C., operate with-out tolls. A small increase in the income tax for all B.C. residents would eliminate tolls on the infrastructure here as well.

The bean counters should be able to crunch the numbers, do the math and determine what small percentage increase would be required

for all B.C. residents who file income taxes, to pay for these bridges and road construction over a designated time frame. This is a good way for this government to eliminate all tolls and pay that debt off very quickly.

It would also eliminate another ongoing cost, that of collecting tolls. The less time it takes to pay the creditors off, the less money will be wasted in interest costs. This proposal is a win-win situation for everyone.

W.A.C. Bennett, B.C.’s best premier, elimi-nated tolls in B.C. on all bridges when he was in office. He set a good example to follow.

If the Liberal government snapped onto this idea, they would probably increase their popularity manyfold. If it doesn’t, the NDP may improve its standing by adopting it.

Lack of off-leash areas is puzzling

Most gun owners are responsible peopleEditor: Re: A revealing conversatioon with

an ex-soldier, (letters, The Times, April 8.)Two sentences in this letter read “Politicians

should have outlawed [guns]” and “Guns could teach children to become criminals.”

Guns are a part of our Canadian cultural heri-tage — means for livelihood, sporting goods, and tools of a trade. To outlaw guns would deprive people of their heirlooms, a portion of their sustenance, a sport, and an income.

Guns are tools, just as dangerous as a kitchen knife or a car in the wrong hands. Should we ban all tools, because they have potential for

harm? There are training courses available. These are easily accessible and affordable, and teach correct usage of these tools.

Many people each year pass these training courses, undergo a lengthy background check, and follow all the strict rules and regulations to own firearms. If you reach out to your local range, there are welcoming people interested in introducing newcomers to their sport.

You may discover that the people you encounter are polite, well-mannered and safe — far from being criminals.

As for our soldiers being in foreign countries:

to be a part of NATO, we are required to main-tain a military force that can be sent to aid on peacekeeping missions. Not a single politician is promising to pull us out of NATO and relieve us of our obligations, so I’d be voting for a poli-tician that can get our military safely home.

Empty promises on reneging on our agree-ments, and sending our boys and girls overseas — ill-equipped and using outdated technology — to fulfill our political obligations isn’t some-thing I can stand behind.

Amy Bickley,Langley

Editor: I am writing to ask you a few ques-tions. My number one question is why does Langley have no off-leash dog walking areas?

I have lived in many areas over the years and they have all had excellent walking areas. Here in Langley, we have one very dirty unkempt area at Derby Reach. It is not a walking area. It is simply an off-leash area that has been let go.

I have talked to many people during my walks with my golden retrievers. I have encountered a lot of angry people who want to know why we have not been provided with an off-leash walk area.

Most of them are out walking and their dogs are off-leash. They are very tired of being

harassed by the bylaw officers. I want to know why?

I have tried to have a conversation, and ask these questions to Mr. Bean. All he does is quote company policy. He never answers the actual questions.

By the end of our e-mail discussion, I was feeling angry, tired and very discouraged. I decided to take a few weeks off and let it rest.

I decided once again to try. This was sparked by the fact that we are so uncomfortable walking in the Metro Vancouver park areas in Langley. My husband chose to drive to North Vancouver to enjoy their beautiful dog walking park. This is by far my favourite place in the

world. Unfortunately, I could not join him as I had office work to do.

I knew, what with the drive and the walk, it would be at least a three-hour adventure. It turned out to be more like four and one-half hours.

To me this is so sad, and it’s environmentally unfriendly. To drive a car to North Vancouver is one extra car on the road at a time when we are building bike lanes and gas is so expensive.

The Metro Vancouver parks in Langley have miles of walking trails, yet not one is dedicated to off-leash walking.

Laurel Pickles,Langley

Editor: Cameron Gair (The Times, March 30) rightly states that some people do not want to live in Willoughby.

We do not. We chose Brookswood for the larger lots, many trees and ravines and the freedom away from close quartered ghettos. I suspect many people feel the same way and those who are unhappy with the area should move out.

Maybe the physical upkeep of their property is getting to be too much and the glint of easy money from the sale of their large lots is enticing.

The small local shops, medical offices, library, parks, schools and other amenities serve us well. Yes, even the septic fields work well.

To bring thousands of more people into the area, will destroy Brookswood/Fernridge and create an entirely new community, and our distinctive neigh-borhood will be lost forever. Langley prides itself on the motto ‘Town and Country Together.’ If this destruction continues, we might as well drop the ‘country.’

Every baby is wanted by someone, somewhereEditor: Every baby is a blessing. But judg-

And every baby is wanted, by someone. If the baby is not wanted by the birth

I was adopted, and only two per cent of babies are adopted today. I feel very fortunate to be alive.

Critter Care Wildlife Soci-ety’s 12th annual dinner and auction is quickly approach-ing, with the purpose of rais-ing much-needed funds for their habitat rehabilitation programs.

Gail Martin, executive director and founder of the society, says the money from this event will go directly to purchasing baby formula for the busy spring and summer seasons. This alone costs the society $25,000 a year to supply.

“Last year, formula, medi-cines like vaccines, medi-cal supplies and what I call specific foods — like fish for the otters — was $62,000. That doesn’t even include the building of cages or any-thing like that,” she said.

Critter Care Wildlife Soci-ety is the only organization in southern B.C. that special-izes in the rehabilitation of native mammal species. It will take everything from squirrels and raccoons, to deer and black bears cubs.

They care from anywhere between 1,200 and 1,500 mammals per year, and can have up to 250 animals in their facility at any given time.

Last winter they had had an unusu-ally high number of animals needing

“Animals come and go, but we’ve had so many injuries this (past) summer,” Martin said, explaining the high number of animals cur-rently in the facility.

Fundraising events such as the upcoming dinner and auction are vital for the wildlife centre’s existence.

“We’re just trying to get our name out there so more people recog-nize what we are trying to do, the importance of supporting what we do and to generate the funding that we need to keep on working,” said Darlene McKay, orga-nizer of the event.

“We don’t receive any government fund-ing at all so these sorts of events are what we depend on, and corpo-rate sponsorship. With-out that we couldn’t carry on. So this is

really, really imperative for us.”

A number of items donated for the auction should prove popu-lar with bidders. They include: a private plane trip for two to Tofino, complete with an air tour and brunch at the Wickaninnish Inn; an afternoon of cocktails on a yacht; a limited edition Bev Doolittle print; and tickets for tourist activi-ties such as the Capilano Suspension Bridge and the Paddlewheeler River Boat Cruise up the Fraser River.

The dinner and auc-tion, hosted by Linda Aylesworth of Global TV, will be held on April 30 at the Lang-ley Seniors Recreation and Resource Society- 20605 51B Ave. The evening begins at 5:30 p.m., with dinner at 7:00 p.m.

Hoofbeats help healingMIRANDA GATHERCOLETimes Reporter

A new program for cancer survivors uses relationships with horses to help ease struggles that may come with transition-ing back into normal-ized life.

Linda-Ann Bowling, master coach of Unbri-dling Your Brilliance in Aldergrove, says the strength of horses can be used to heal people in ways that conven-tional medicine cannot.

Her latest program, "Hoof Beats Back to Power — let the healing continue," is designed specifically for cancer survivors, and uses the growing art of equine guided training to overcome emotional barriers within an individual.

Bowling describes the method as a part-nership using horses for "self discovery and self learning," by utiliz-ing the natural behav-ioral traits of a horse, rather than physical riding abilities.

"One of the most predominant things

that we have found in our relationships with horses is they can always get to the root of some of those emo-tions that are often bur-ied or confused," said Bowling.

Through what she calls emotional congru-ency, coaches monitor a horse's body lan-guage to reflect how honest a person is with their own emotions inside.

As Bowling explains: "a horse will only feel comfortable with a human if a human recognizes that they're stressed or fearful or anxious. Where a horse doesn't feel comfort-able with a human is when a human pretends that they're feeling fine. So it can be very healing for a human to be with a horse who is much more accepting that there may be more going on than they may be aware of them-selves."

All of the work in the program is done on the ground beside the horse. It is not eques-trian based, so there are no riding skills

needed. Instead, methods

such as meditation, breath work, yoga, and heart connection are used to engage the horses.

Bowling says that this new workshop places an emphasis on learning to take back control of your own life, and to move for-ward into a new begin-ning.

"Really the metaphor is that cancer has taken over your life so now, are you going to lead it, or is it going to lead you?" she said.

Bowling describes the process as "quite an emotional experi-ence," and says it's best for "people who are searching for some-thing that's non-con-ventional — they've tried all the rest and they want to be part of a community."

"Hoof Beats Back to Power let the healing continue" will be held on Friday, April 15 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., at the Healing Heart Sanctu-ary- 25027 Robertson Crescent in Aldergrove.

Pre-registration is required.

CLEARTHE

CLUTTER

604.575.5555


The B.C. legisla-ture is getting set for a spring ses-

sion from the last week of April through May.

Premier Christy Clark has kept her options open and held her cards close since winning the B.C. Lib-eral leadership in Feb-ruary. She is expected to announce shortly

that she is running in a May bye-lection, to fill the seat vacated by Gordon Campbell.

But a byelection would have had to be called by now to put Clark back on the front bench in time for the

start of the spring session. And there are two legislative tasks that

won’t wait: passing a $40 billion budget for the fiscal year that has already started, and changing the format and date of the harmo-

nized sales tax refer-endum that has been announced for June.

A spring session must begin with the new premier coaching from the sidelines, but assuming Clark wins in Vancouver-Point Grey, it sets up her trium-phant return to square off with the new NDP leader in question period before the ses-sion ends in early June.

A mail-in ballot for the HST referendum will allow several weeks for responses to be sent in. The govern-ment now says it will be August before the result is known.

Clark has indicated she wants the HST question decided before a general elec-tion is called. Thus a September vote becomes the most likely scenario.

The launch of TV ads by both B.C. par-ties is another sign of election preparations. Any new leader wants to take advantage of a honeymoon period that might be brief, and Clark’s upbeat ads with the tagline “this is just the start” set the tone.

NDP leadership can-didate John Horgan talks about looking forward to a campaign where he hands out brochures with his picture, not Camp-bell’s. But the policy-challenged opposition has offered up another attack ad featuring, you guessed it, a picture of Campbell on a cereal box.

For the B.C. Liberals, the policy hits keep coming. First it was increasing the mini-mum wage, and now Clark’s “families first” machine is moving on BC Hydro.

Rich Coleman has a well-earned reputa-tion for getting things done and he has wasted no time since Clark assigned him to the energy file. BC Hydro will continue with its application to raise rates nearly 10 per cent this year, but Coleman has begun a review aimed at paring back that and future increases expected to total 50 per cent by 2016.

Coleman quickly determined that delay-ing the imminent launch of BC Hydro’s smart grid project would be a false econ-omy. He is focused on two hugely expensive seismic upgrades.

They are for the Ruskin Dam in the Fraser Valley and the John Hart Dam on the Campbell River.

Together these are budgeted at more than $2 billion and are the type of project that can encounter costly surprises when digging into the dirt. Cole-man has directed BC Hydro to look at decommissioning the old dams instead.

Did he really “direct” BC Hydro? Here’s what Coleman told me.

“It’s still Hydro’s decision at the end of the day I suppose, but certainly they’re going to have to report in to me on it, because I told them they have to.”

Coleman has also appointed three senior bureaucrats to find options for savings in BC Hydro’s plan, and to report back to him by the end of June.

That will give the government enough time to craft a rate relief program for BC Hydro custom-ers, just in time for September.

• Correction: I erred in a recent column that said the Ruskin Dam is part of a regional flood control system. It isn’t.

Coleman takes on Hydro

Recycling boosted throughFort Langley project

It takes a community to keep a village clean and green, and businesses and residents in Fort Langley have joined forces with the Township of Langley to keep recyclables out of the landfill.

A dozen black garbage cans, outfitted with special recycling trays to hold used bottles and cans, have been placed through-out the village, thanks to the success of a pilot project and the offer of a local businesswoman.

Mary Martini of Starline Win-dows had approached the Town-ship offering to pay for on-street recycling trays in the village. The idea was presented to the Fort Langley BIA, which agreed to support a pilot project.

For 13 weeks, 13 temporary recycling containers were put

out beside garbage cans. Dur-ing that time, 7,480 refundable beverage containers were col-lected by community members and diverted from the garbage dump, without any additional administration or operating costs to the Township.

Based on that success, perma-nent garbage bins have been fit-ted with custom-made beverage container recycling racks paid for by Starline.

Three new blue recycling bins have also been placed in high traf-fic areas and are clearly marked with internationally recognized recycling logos to distinguish them from the garbage cans.

Township engineering opera-tions superintendent Phil Banton said that the program is self-suffi-

cient, as it does not require staff time or public resources to col-lect and recycle the containers.

The recyclables are collected by people within the commu-nity, he added.

In the past, Fort Langley resi-dents and merchants counted on long-time resident Dallas Evans to collect their recyclables. Evans died in 2008, but others have been collecting the containers, bringing them to a recycling facility.

The Township is also install-ing recycling collection racks donated by Starline in local parks, and is looking at following the success of the Fort Langley on-street recycling project with similar options in other com-munities.

Ten Thousand Villages Canada and Habitat for Humanity Canada have joined forces for a year-long partnership to raise funds and awareness.

Through a series of in-store events and

on-line promotions, the two non-profit orga-nizations will work to raise support for the human right to decent, affordable housing and for fair trade relationships around the world.

“The partnership is a perfect fit,” said Olga Nickel, who manages the Ten Thou-sand Villages store at 20523 Fraser Hwy.

Closely aligned by their missions and strong volunteer bases, the two charities are both volunteer driven and dedicated to breaking the cycle of poverty, Nickel said.

“By combining forces, lives in Canada and around the wold will be transformed,” she said.

Homes built by Habitat for Humanity

provide security and so do purchases at Ten Thousand Villages, Nickel said.

Her charity supports fair trade farmers and workers. “Artisans can plan for the future, secure in the knowledge of reliable income paid in advance, as well as the assur-

Funds go for new housingance of safe working conditions,” she said.

Similarly, homes built by HHC pro-vide security for the less fortunate.

The partnership began on March 14 with Everybody Needs a Home campaign in which $10 from the sale of each Habitat promotion bird-house was donated to HHC.

In the upcoming donation coupon campaign, which runs from April 25 to May 8, 20 per cent of all purchases made at Ten Thousand Vil-lages Canada, using the fund-raiser coupons or by men-tioning the HHC fundraiser, will go to HHC’s local initiatives.

Coupons and information will be available on the organizations’ web-sites and Facebook pages

The partnership culminates in the fall with the Home Is Where the Heart is campaign in which $1 from the sale of special edition ‘Home/Maison’ stone will be donated to HHC. Skillfully crafted by Indian artisans, these palm-sized, heart-shaped stones are good reminders of

the importance of house and home, and of fair trade.

Ten Thousand Villages is the oldest and largest fair trade organization in North America. Through a network

of forty-eight stores, as well as through hun-dreds of festival sales and E-shopping, the chain sells artisan-crafted per-sonal accessories, home decor and gift items from around the world.

The Langley story of Ten Thousand Villages opened in 2003 and is run by 28 volunteers.Run by the Mennonite

Central Committee (MCC), the relief and development agency of Mennonite and Brethren in Christ churches in North America, Ten Thousand Villages has its roots in the work begun by Edna Ruth Byler in 1946.

Habitat for Humanity has built, rehabilitated, repaired or improved more than 400,000 houses world-wide, providing shelter for more than two million people since it was founded in 1976.

“My experience at Euro Class Motors really took away from the stress that I usually associate with the maintenance and repair of my car. The mechanics were extremely knowledgeable and effi cient, and above all were honest. Since my fi rst visit I have recommended their services to many of my close friends and family, as I trust that they would be well taken care of. I defi nitely plan to take any of my future needs to this establishment!” ~ Miranda Law

Caps Bicycles is a family owned

bicycle company, now entering its third genera-

tion of owners in the Hobbis family.

With 8000 sq ft of showroom available in their

Langley location, they off er a selection unparallel

to other stores.

They have over 1300 bikes to fi t the needs of ev-

eryone in your family from ages two to 100. There’s

bound to be one perfect for you.

“We are family oriented and family

run,” said Grant Hobbis, current

owner.

A unique part of Langley’s history,

Caps Bicycles was started by Grant

Hobbis’ father in 1932. This was

during the Depression years and

many could not aff ord a car, so

they turned to bicycles for transportation

instead.

This trend is once again beginning

to increase as many people opt out

of cars for more environmentally

friendly transportation.

“Everything we sell is self propelled.

You can’t get any greener,” said Hob-

bis.

Caps off ers complete full service, from

purchasing a bike to repairing a bike, and have all of

the accessories to match.

“It doesn’t matter where you buy your bike from,

we have mechanics to fi x it,” said Hobbis. “We fi x all

makes and models.”

Everything from outdoor riding apparel to over 1000

diff erent helmets, you can be sure to fi nd all of the

equipment needed to make your ride more comfort-

able.

“We’re able to service the entire bicycle spectrum,”

he said.

All of their staff members are very knowledgeable

and avid cyclists themselves, and spend much of

their spare time hitting up trails across the Lower

Mainland.

“There’s probably nothing we haven’t come across,”

said Hobbis. “When you add up all of the staff here,

we have close to 100 years of experience from them,”

he said.

Their upcoming Bicycle Madness Sale on April 16 and

17 is the perfect time to fi nd a new ride for the sum-

mer weather to come. Suppliers are clearing out all

of last year’s models and prices are being slashed.

“If you’re looking for a deal on a bicycle, this is the

time,” he said. “It’s great deals and great service.”

Caps Bicycles is located at 20306 Logan Ave in

Langley.

MIRANDA GATHERCOLETimes Reporter

The Fort Gallery’s latest exhibit, “Antiquity Reconstructed,” pairs up two very different artists who are discovering they have striking similarities in their work.

Artists Bette Laughy and Olga Khodyreva had never met each other prior to preparing for the show, which opened at the Fort Langley art gallery on March 30.

But, as Khodyreva says: “Some of the pieces look like we have been communicating for a while to cre-ate something similar.”

Although Laughy has created landscapes highlighting the rock and sky of Arizona and Khodyreva offers surrealist images of time-worn statues, both capture the essence of ancient items, whether natural or man-made, and portray the emotions they see within them.

“We are approaching our styles very differently, but its amazing our colours are so similar,” said Laughy.

“The whole thing works together really well.”

Together, the two came up with the art exhibit’s name, which they say describes the measure of time in both of their work.

For Laughy, the inspiration for her 12 acrylic and oil paintings comes from a series of trips to Arizona and the Four Corners of the United States (where Colorado, Arizona, Utah and New Mexico meet).

In her artist’s statement she writes: “There was a very spiri-tual quality to the light and an energy in the air ... the first time I saw Monument Valley and felt its hushed atmo-sphere, it seemed as though I had stepped into God’s own cathe-dral.

“My own life seemed a small, but natural, part of it all. I returned home at peace with myself.”

She says the paintings she is showcasing at the Fort Gallery are attempts at recreating this experi-ence.

Khodyreva’s mixed-media pieces come from a very different inspi-ration. Currently completing her certificate in fine arts at Emily Carr University, her experiences there have guided her work.

“It’s not that easy to define,” she said of her artwork.

“It’s spiritual, and my images are surreal most of the time. My idea was to create something which was in between abstract and real, so I tried to use texture as an image as well, and then put a human face into it.”

Laughy has been with the Fort Gallery for four years now, and says the group’s openness to artis-tic style and expression has made her experience there very enjoy-able.

“It lets me be me,” she said. “The mandate is ‘exploration

and contempo-rary work’ and that really suites me. I’m just not the type of per-son that can paint what somebody else wants, so this allows me to just please my own interests. It’s a very supportive environment. We

really encourage one another to develop as far as we can.”

Khodyreva is the Gallery’s new-est member, and says much the same about the environment there.

“Well I love it,” she said. “It’s a great opportunity to exhibit and to learn. This is what I was looking for. And I like the experimental nature of the gallery. We are pressed to create order sometimes. This is more about individual explora-tion.”

Antiquity Reconstructed runs until April 17 at Fort Gallery, 9048 Glover Road in Fort Langley.

As an extension of Antiquity Reconstructed, poet Susan McCa-slin will read from her newly released book, Demeter Goes Sky-diving on Friday, April 15 from 7 p.m. to 9 pm.

Miranda GATHERCOLE/Langley TimesBette Laughy and Olga Khodyreva have collaborated on Antiquity Reconstructed, an art exhibit on display at the Fort Gallery until Sunday, April 17.

BRENDA ANDERSONTimes Reporter

Armand Lombard can’t exactly sit down and write a big check to help the people of Japan as they struggle to recover from last month’s devastating earthquake and tsunami.

But that doesn’t mean the nine-year-old Langley boy is going to just sit quietly and let the grownups handle it.

Instead, Armand picked up his paint brush and went to work.

The budding young art-ist — whose family moved to Canada from South Africa two years ago — has created a painting which is now being auctioned off as part of Artists for Japan, a Facebook cam-paign to support the efforts of the Canadian Red Cross in the devastated island nation.

Armand based his paint-ing on one his mother Freda, also an artist, had created, but made the colours his own.

He selected a range of bright jewel-tone colours, from vibrant green to purple, blue and yellow, all of which he mixed from primary colours.

But the focus of the piece is the ‘Twinkle Eye’ for which

it is named.The woman’s red iris is set

in the middle of the white of the eye to represent the flag of Japan.

It is lined in silver glitter to give it its ‘twinkle.’

“He painted it on his first easel, said Freda, explaining that her younger son (older brother Reynard is 12) has always liked to draw but only took up painting last October, working alongside his mom in her downstairs studio.

“We try to paint together every day,” she said.

Since he posted the paint-ing on the site with a reserve bid of $8, it has begun to climb, with a top bid of $25 on Monday.

As Fat City Swing winds down after nine years of operation, organizers are taking a look back by hosting some of the favourite bands that have per-formed at the all-ages dance club over the years.

Among them is the 15-piece The Other Big Band. They will come to West Langley Hall on Friday, April 15, at the West Langley Hall (9400 208 St.).

The Other Big Band first performed at Fat City seven years ago and has continued to delight audi-ences every year with its classic swing tunes.

Bandleader, Doug Makela and his band have played all over B.C. and in the US, performing at such prestigious festivals as the Lionel Hampton Jazz Festival.

The Other Big Band promises to leave audiences spellbound with a mix of classic swing tunes from the ’30s and ’40s. Most musicians in The Other Big Band reside in Langley and have been active in the music scene for a number of years. Only two more Fat City Swing nights follow this April’s event before the doors close for good. They will be on May 15 and June 3.

Tickets will be available at the door for $15 gen-eral admission and $13 for students with valid ID. Doors open at 7:30pm, an introductory East Coast Swing dance lesson at 8 p.m. with the band sweep-ing the stage from 9 p.m. until 11:30 p.m.

Percussionist Bruce Henczel will bring an electrifying program of marimba, Roma-Gypsy, and hand drum solos to the Rose Gellert Hall stage on April 15.

Pre-concert coffee and commen-tary begins at 10 a.m. by Bergmann, followed by the concert at 11 a.m.

It is part of the daily grind for many of us –

making or buying coffee. Coffee is part of the Pacific Northwest lifestyle. Yet, like many aspects of our 21st century lifestyle in North America, coffee illustrates our collective insanity.

The story begins with us growing coffee in large tropical plantations. There are many issues around the environmental and economic sustainability of coffee plantations, and many of you are probably familiar with these.

Moving on, we get to the mass movement of coffee beans from the tropics to us in the Pacific Northwest. Along the way, there is also the processing of the raw beans into usable form. Then the beans are ground and water is run through them to percolate out as java.

Then what happens? Well, next we drink the coffee (hopefully in a reusable mug).

Is that all? No.

Left behind in the gazillion coffee filters used are literally tons of coffee grinds, the end product of the tons of coffee beans that

were grown in the tropics and shipped to us.

So billions of small particles that can no longer be used to make coffee are discarded and forgotten about. Yet these grounds still contain energy from the tropical sun.

Certain coffee shops will offer the grounds back to customers as compost — ample grounds for consideration as we ramp up our gardens for spring. Plants do thrive on the nutrients available from coffee grounds, but there’s more to the end of the coffee story.

I have a student at Trinity Western who keeps a sharp eye on how humanity is missing the boat. Nathan Ginetz presented a senior paper this spring on how we as humans have the technology for a much greener future, but are failing to invest in such a future.

Nathan also conducted research to illustrate how the energy from coffee grounds could be recycled, adopting techniques utilized at a number of laboratories to show that it’s not hard to convert coffee grounds to biofuel.

A University of Nevada study estimated that the 16 billion pounds of coffee grounds produced each year could be converted into 340 million U.S. gallons of biodiesel.

Adding a sudden caffeine jolt into the fuel line would not cure our problems – the U.S. alone uses 40 billion gallons of diesel fuel annually for road transportation. Still, there are many other green energy sources.

Nathan has his eyes on microscopic green energy machines in particular – algae.

You may think Nathan’s crazy, but how sane is it to be stuck on the fossil fuel treadmill?

Someone needs to wake up and smell the coffee.

A Murder Of Crows is descending upon Surrey Little this spring

Directed by Lynne Karey-McKenna, A Murder of Crows runs until May 7 at Surrey Little Theatre, just across the Langley-Surrey boundary.

This is Surrey Little Theatre’s Fraser Valley Zone entry into the Theatre BC festival.

Ed Graczyk’s story takes place in small town Wallace, Ohio, once a thriving farming community, now a chemically polluted soon-to-be ghost town. The play’s central characters, Harley and Jenny Woodson, are being relocated to a trailer home in the city by their long estranged son and daughter-in-law.

This whimsical tale of an environmental night-

mare intertwines touching emotional drama with a generous dose of comedy.

A compassionate old fashioned play about life and death in middle America touching on themes of aging, love, loyalty and displacement, A Murder of Crows softens the hard facts of life and death with infectious warmth and a great sense of humour.

Showtimes are Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings at 8 p.m. with additional Sunday matinees on April 17 and May 1 at 2 p.m.

Tickets can be reserved at (604) 576-8451 or [email protected].

All tickets are $15. Surrey Little Theatre is located at 7027 184 St.

GARY AHUJATimes Sports

Matt Keith understands the importance of giving back.

Having played professionally in his fair share of cities — Abbotsford was his eighth city in eight years, spanning three hockey leagues and three countries — giving back and being part of the community is natural.

“It is important, especially in the American Hockey League, to do that, to get involved, going to schools and hospitals, and doing that sort of thing,” Keith said. “It is important as players we understand the role that we can play and that we do have the ability to help.”

Keith, who turned 28 on Monday (April 11) was the Abbotsford Heat’s nominee for the AHL Yanick Dupre Memorial Award, given to a player for their involvement in the community.

While he did not win the award — the Binghamton Senators’ Cody Bass was the winner — Keith was flattered just to be honoured.

“It was very special (to be selected),” he admitted, saying this was the first time he received an honour such as this.

“For me to get that (nomination), it was special.

“It didn’t feel like I was doing anything out of the ordinary; it felt normal, it felt natural. It just comes with the territory.”

There was also the added bonus of giving back to his de-facto home town.

He was raised in Aldergrove and Langley is his off-season home.

“I don’t think you can find anybody who is prouder than me to be from the Fraser

Valley,” he said. “I love being

here, at home.“The Fraser

Valley did so much for me growing up, it just felt natural, normal, to give back.”

Keith’s selection as the Heat nominee was a pretty

easy one.“I don’t know if it is

any one thing,” said Dave Sheldon, the team’s director of communications and broadcast.

“(But) from the first day we had him, he made it clear that he wanted to be a part of the community.”

Keith was always willing to volunteer his off-time to go read at local schools or make community appearances on behalf of the team.

“I really enjoyed reading to the kids, I find that fun,” he explained, adding that he always figured teaching may have been his career path had he not chased his pro hockey dream.

He also had the chance to

help out at practices for the Aldergrove Minor Hockey Association.

“That is where I got started, where I got to play,” he said about being back in the Aldergrove Arena. “It was a neat feeling. I remember how many hours I practised there, so to be able to go back there, it brought back a lot of memories.”

Keith also spoke to some of the AMHA players, following the tragic passing of one of their teammates, Coleton Nelson, who died after being injured in a car accident in February.

That was a very hard day, and a much different mood from when Keith usually spoke to young hockey fans.

“It really puts things into perspective,” he said.

“To be a part of that, it was different, but very touching.”

Doing what he has this past season is nothing out of the ordinary for Keith.

“I think you could have given it to anybody on our team and I think that is the case with a lot of the players in this league,” he said.

As pro hockey players, Keith said they understand

the importance of being a community presence.

“As guys in the American League, you look up to the guys in the NHL, and you see there is still somewhere else to move on to,” he said.

“So sometimes you don’t realize what sort of impact you can have on somebody.

“It is obviously a privilege to play in the American Hockey League. You just don’t realize, because you are chasing a dream, what sort of impact you can have on kids.”

Keith, who becomes a free agent on July 1, would love to be back for another season with the Heat.

He led the team in goals (20) and points (35) as well as shots on goal (216).

A former second-round pick of the Chicago Blackhawks, he has two goals and five assists in 27 career NHL games with the Hawks and the New York Islanders.

But ultimately, he knows there are a lot of factors that will determine whether he can stay close to home as he pursues his NHL ambitions, or whether he will be off to another destination next season.

Prior to this weekend’s opening game, the Langley Blaze coaches talked about how this year’s pitching staff would not be as dominant as in year’s past.

But after watching Saturday’s season-opening doubleheader, the Blaze hurlers may have their coaches reconsidering.

Tom Robson and Devon Stewart each struck out nine batters in a pair of shutout victories, 5-0 and 3-0 against the Abbotsford Cardinals at Delair Park on opening day of the B.C. Premier Baseball League schedule.

In the opener, with Robson allowing four hits in five-plus innings before Garrett Smith closed things out, Justin Atkinson paced the offence with three hits, while Tyler Barlow scored twice.

Mike Krische had

the lone RBI as the other four runs were all unearned.

And in the back end of the doubleheader,

Stewart went the distance, scattering three hits and one walk over seven innings.

Jerod Bartnik had an RBI and two hits, while Bill Germaine scored twice.

John MORROW/Black PressLangley Blaze’s Justin Atkinson slides safely into second base as Abbotsford Cardinals’ Matt Buse awaits the throw during opening day action for the B.C. Premier Baseball League. The Blaze won 5-0 and 3-0 at Abbotsford’s Delair Park on Saturday.

Pitching fuels Blaze sweep

Another meet, another dominating performance for Hillary Metcalfe.

The 12-year-old won every single one of her races as her club, the Langley Olympians Swim Club hosted their annual long-course invitational at the Walnut Grove Aquatic Centre earlier this month.

Metcalfe also set three new club records.Hugh McNeill, 7, broke five club records, while

Jaime Lavoie, 8, set one new club record.Medal winners included:Gold: Kyla Barton (2); Michael MacDonald (2);

Avery Martin (2); Martha Metcalfe (3); Kate Thom-son; Trevor Vosey (2).

Silver: Chelsea Borrowdale; Joshua Kim; Michael MacDonald; Robyn Nakano; Kate Thomson.

Bronze: Chelsea Borrowdale (2); Renae Ledoux; Michael MacDonald; Avery Martin Martha Metcalfe (4); Ryan Moloney; Justin Schramm; Trevor Vosey (2).
