A multi-year condo project that will change the face of Maple Ridge started Monday with a plan to build 21 town-houses on River Road, flanking both sides of Port Haney Wharf.
The housing project, if approved, will kickstart changes that will link downtown to Kanaka Creek Regional Park, using a riverfront walkway and boardwalk featuring viewpoints, street furniture and public art.
Details on the former remain to be sorted out, but the rezoning proposal sets out Phase 1 of the plan, which is to build seven townhouses on the west side of the wharf and 14 on the east.
Five other phases would follow over the next five years, resulting in three residential towers built between the CP Railway line and the river.
A waterfront park, board walk and pathways connecting to Kanaka Creek Regional Park, as well as a marina and seaplane terminal are all part of the project.

Schools in Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows will be behind picket lines next week as a summer-long dispute between teachers and the province appears likely to contin-ue into fall.
With the start of the school year looming, the B.C. Teachers’ Fed-eration has promised to step up protests against B.C. Liberal MLAs and school boards in an ef-fort to kick-start bar-gaining.
“Pickets will be up in full force across the province,” BCTF presi-dent Jim Iker said Sunday at a
summer leadership con-ference in Kamloops.
“We need to increase the pressure once again. We need to target those Liberal MLAs who are uncomfortable with how their government has been sitting on their hands – ask them why their government is not negotiating and get them
questioning the spin that is com-
ing from their minister.”Although the Maple Ridge-Pitt
Meadows School District is trying to be optimistic about a deal be-ing reached before Sept. 2, a letter delivered to parents Monday sows more uncertainty.
Acting superintendent of schools Laurie Meston said a deci-sion on schools opening will likely not be made until late Monday – Sept. 1.

Talks have been dragging on for two years to work out a land swap between the District of Maple Ridge and land developer SmartCentres so a mall can be built on the flat land at Lougheed Highway and 105th Avenue.
Some people want it decided be-fore the November municipal elec-tion and are surprised a deal hasn’t been reached yet.
Mayor Ernie Daykin wants some-thing before the public before the Nov. 15 municipal election. He doesn’t know if it will happen, though.
“I’m hopeful … and I’m as frus-trated as anybody else.”
Discussions are ongoing with SmartCentres.
“In terms of Maple Ridge, we are continuing to work with the district on a land exchange agreement in order to realize our vision to build a shopping centre in the Albion,” said Sandra Kaiser, SmartCentres, vice-president of corporate affairs.
“Hopefully, we will be able to pro-vide an update later in the year.”
Negotiations are complex because they involve the District of Maple Ridge taking possession of unde-velopable land in the Agricultural Land Reserve on the west side of 105th Avenue.
In return, the district will give SmartCentres land on the east side, including the Albion fairgrounds, that can be developed commercially because it has the tacit approval for removal from the reserve.
Talks involving land deals are se-cret while underway, but once a deal has been reached, the public will have input before council gives final approval to a land swap. After that, Maple Ridge must submit a block land exclusion application to the Agricultural Land Commission.
“Every opportunity will be given to get the information out to the
public. Whatever it looks like, it needs to be understood,” Daykin said.
“If we’re going to err on the side of anything, it’s on the side of caution. It’s taxpayers’ money, assets. The public has a huge vested interest in it, that’s for sure.”
Daykin hasn’t heard if the mall proposal has been changed in size, saying the developer knows what size it has to be in order to make it viable.
But the commercial component will extend east on Lougheed High-way from 105th only as far the building supplies store, leaving the remainder to 240th Street for busi-ness park, commercial or recre-ational use.
If a deal is signed before the elec-tion, council can be accused of ram-ming it through. If a deal is made after the election, politicians can be accused of letting the new council deal with it.
“I’m surprised as much as anyone else that it’s taking this long,” said mayoralty candidate Coun. Mike Morden.
He thought talks would have fin-ished much sooner.
But he also says staff will try to get some of the details about the plan before the public.
“Something will become apparent before the actual election.”
But it’s important to report to the public whatever they can, he said. “We have an obligation to be as open and forthright as we possibly can.
What that is and when, he doesn’t know.
Many parties are involved in the talks, he said
Will it be an election issue? “I don’t know that we’re going to
have that answer to that.” It’s out of council’s control, he said.“I wouldn’t be surprised if we
don’t have an application before the
election.” And a new council may see the
deal differently.Morden said he doesn’t have an
opinion one way or the other as to whether the deal should be signed after or before the election. But he wouldn’t be surprised if nothing happened before the election.
Mayoralty challenger Tyler Shy-mkiw said council is well within its rights to pursue the deal.
“They were elected, in part, on the promise that they would de-liver shopping.”
But he doesn’t want to see happen is a “sweetheart last-minute deal just so that they show some prog-ress before the election.”
He added that for an issue “that has been so central and conten-tious in the political conversation of this community for so long, a robust consultation process” is needed to ratify any deal.
The issue also could be put to ref-erendum, and hopes the issue will be settled once and for all.
James ‘Buddy’ Rogers, who’s seek-ing a council seat, says a lot what’s going on should be more public.
“The one thing I can say is I do
support more shopping in Maple Ridge.”
But it’s been going on for two years.
“If it’s going to come out shortly after the election, why do it be-fore?”
Mayoralty challenger Graham Mowatt says referenda can raise voter interest, and the Albion flats deal would be good to tack on to the municipal ballot.
It’s an important issue and the public should be updated before the election, he said.
He wants the public to be better informed about negotiations the district has on a variety of issues.
Grover Telford, who’s also trying for council, said he’s bothered that they don’t update the public.
“I don’t know where they’re at,” he said. “That’s my main beef, that they started something and they don’t keep the public informed as to what’s happening. Nobody knows.”
On the other hand, Albion shop-ping is still an election issue in 2014, just as it was in 2011, when Telford also supported a mall in the area.
“The great thing is, I don’t have to change my signs.”

Family and fun form the foundation for Maple Ridge’s big two days,
starting Sept. 12.That’s when the District of
Maple Ridge celebrates its 140th anniversary and looks forward to the future, while looking back at the past.
Both newly arrived residents to Maple Ridge and old-timers can do that over two days at Memorial Peace Park in down-town Maple Ridge.
Friday, Sept. 12, the fun starts at supper time, 5 p.m. and goes to 9:30 p.m.
“It’s a family concert in the park,” said Maple Ridge spokes-man Fred Armstrong.
“The focus is just trying to get families down … just having a good time, just a big party that’s going to run over a couple of days. It should be lots of fun.”
After some music to warm up the crowd Friday, speeches and
presentations begin at 7 p.m. in the bandstand.
Actors from the Emerald Pig Society will dress up in historic garb and give versions of ac-tual speeches that Maple Ridge’s mayors have made over the past years.
That may leave the audience realizing many of today’s issues were also yesterday’s concerns.
The evening culminates in the cutting of a big birthday cake and it’s hoped the announce-ment that the provincial gov-ernment has awarded the dis-trict of Maple Ridge city status.
Maple Ridge applied earlier to have its status changed so that it no longer has to use the cum-bersome title of district, a move the City of Pitt Meadows made in 2007.
“We’re still waiting to hear from the provincial govern-ment on that,” Armstrong said.
Also Friday in Memorial Peace Park, fire and police ve-hicles will be on display so kids can climb around and parents can get photos.
Saturday, Sept. 13, birthday events also start in Memorial Peace Park, where the Haney
Farmers Market and Maple Ridge Museum collaborate to set up several tents that will tell Maple Ridge’s history from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Tents will feature food and farm prod-ucts made in Maple Ridge during three time periods. The Downtown Maple Ridge Business Im-provement Area will have another tent, while two others will feature displays about the aboriginal people in the area as well as agriculture.
“We’re hoping some of the historical farm families will be part of that,” Armstrong said.
Historic displays will also be set up in the bandstand to give a look back into the past.
Winners of another anniver-sary event will be announced during Saturday celebrations in the park, as well.
Earlier this summer, the dis-trict put out calls for entries in its Tweetable Sidewalk Poetry Call.
People were invited to write 140-character Tweetable poems
about Maple Ridge. Deadline to enter is Sept. 2, so
you have some time if you want to try your writing skill.
Send entries only by e-mail to: [email protected].
Also, check out The News’ “I Heart Maple Ridge Photo Contest.”
In partnership with the district and Photo Express, people can submit their photos of Maple Ridge scenery,
sports or events and win local gift cards.
Deadline to enter is Sept. 5 at mapleridgenews.com.
Saturday night, the 140th birthday celebrations will wrap up along the Fraser River when Omicron Canada, the devel-opers of the Village at Port Haney, will open up the park-ing lot along River Road near Port Haney Wharf so peo-ple can grab some popcorn or kids can get their faces painted, and when the sun sets, watch the animated fea-ture movie Shark Tale on the wharf.

‘Teachers unanimous’Jump from front
Although schools will be open, if a settlement isn’t reached, there will be no classes.
Meston told parents not to send their children to school and to seek alternate arrangements for child care.
“The safety of our students is our highest priority. Should any students arrive at school while picket lines are in place, our school administrators will ensure that they are supervised until they can be safely returned to the care of a parent or guardian,” said Meston.
“It is our hope that the labour impasse is resolved quickly at the bargaining table, and that we can soon return to normal operations.”
Teachers, meanwhile, are picketing constituency of-fices and intend to continue. A rally is scheduled to take place Thursday targeting Maple Ridge-Pitt Mead-ows MLA Doug Bing.
Maple Ridge Teacher’s Association president George Serra said the union met with locals Friday in Kam-loops and teachers were unanimous in maintaining their resolve.
Serra believes the strike will continue “short of a shift in government tactics,” which has been to stall.
“The first week of school is going to highlight the issues in a hurry for parents,” said Serra, adding that parents will be the ones to exert pressure on the gov-ernment to settle.
“Vince Ready is ready, but the government has to take the preconditions out before he steps in.”
After three weeks of rotating strikes, B.C.’s 41,000 public school teachers launched a full strike June 17. There has been little progress at the bargaining table progress since then. Negotiators only met twice through summer, most recently Aug. 9.
A veteran labour dispute negotiator, Ready is moni-toring the situation, but said in a statement Aug. 14 that he would not mediate until he believe the process will be productive.

The month-long Agricultural Land Commis-
sion consultation closed Aug. 22, and the B.C. government is compil-ing the feedback re-ceived from a province-wide tour and invitation to comment.
I can’t tell you much about the official input. The consultation ses-sions were by invitation only, with no media allowed, and the sub-missions via website are also not public.
I reached Agriculture Minister Norm Letnick as he was traveling around B.C. with his camper van, conducting his own meetings with farmers. He’s not saying much either, except that a summary of the findings should be made public in September as the government considers new regulations.
The aim of this exercise is to consider relaxing rules around secondary farm-land uses in the Interior, Kootenay and North regions, as well as food processing and retail sales of food and beverages on farmland. Also under consideration is allowing breweries and distilleries, as wine and cider production are now allowed, and relaxing rules to permit more off-farm products to be sold from farms.
Letnick defended the 30-day summer consultation as adequate. It’s based on 11 questions developed with staff, farm groups and local government. He’s also
not counting how many e-mails were stacked up by proponents or critics.
“I’m not conducting a plebiscite,” Letnick said. “What I’m trying to do is come up with the best balance of recommendations to make to government that can hold their own based on the idea and the potential positive and negative consequences.”
NDP agriculture critic Lana Popham was more forthcoming. She was invited to the formal sessions, and also won’t talk about them directly. But she’s not backing away from her criticisms.
The government is proposing to bypass the Agricultural Land Commission for several kinds of decisions, including sub-division for family use or into properties of 160 acres or more.
“I think the general idea was that people trust the ALC to make that decision, and it should still go through the commission,” Popham said. “Actually the commission has been making those decisions anyway, and I think they’ve been quite fair when somebody applies.”
She said farmers also aren’t sold on the notion of easing the rules for secondary businesses.
“You will already find situations where there’s, let’s say a welding shop or some-thing like that attached to somebody’s residence who lives on ALR land,” Popham said. “That sort of stuff has been allowed, but it’s always had to go through the ALC or some sort of process that’s been in place. This leaves that process out, and so I think that’s the problem people are having.”
She noted that non-farm activities have a way of growing until they become the main business.
A reader who attended the Kelowna session said even winery operators aren’t thrilled about the proposal to enlarge retail space and allow sales of wine or beer not made on site. He said “not one” par-ticipant there liked the idea of increasing industrial activity such as food processing or retailing. And he agreed with Popham that the ALC is doing a good job with subdivision applications.
Popham also clarified the situation with the leased craft gin distillery on her own Vancouver Island farm. It started as a winery, and the conversion needed only local government approval because the production facility was already considered and taxed as light industrial.
Victoria Gin has been a model for the government’s push to allow distilleries, breweries or meaderies on farmland. Given the B.C. Liberals’ love of liberalized liquor, I expect that change to go through.

Ruts in road to farmland
Union misfiredIngrid RiceGuest View
With less than a week left before students are sup-posed to return to classes, there seems little reason to think they will.
Despite insistence from both sides that they want an agreement reached by Sept. 2, school yards will likely remain silent.
Of course, few believed that the two sides would find a negotiated settlement amid the lazy days of summer. The trajectory has always been toward a final showdown – one that is still coming.
It is, after all, the government that holds all the cards. The B.C. Liberals are early in their mandate, meaning they are better able to weather the public backlash over the dispute. They have in their pocket a raft of public sector settlements that suggest a ne-gotiated agreement is possible.
And while there are many who are angered by the government’s bargaining tactics, there are many others who argue the BCTF is asking too much and teachers have gone too far.
The government also knows that teachers cannot stay off the job much longer. Their strike fund is dwindling, and their resources are drying up.
And they know that those teachers who get fed up and leave the profession can be replaced by the hun-dreds of education graduates churned out each year by universities in B.C. and across the country.
Meanwhile, parents who may feel the sting of in-creased childcare costs should the strike continue, have been offered the salve of a $40-a-day payment.
BCTF negotiators may be hoping for a legislated settlement, one that would allow them to face their membership as bruised but not beaten combatants. But the fact is they have played their hand poorly. They have cost their members money that no settle-ment will recover. They have alienated their CUPE colleagues who suffer every day the schools remain closed.
And they have underestimated the will of a gov-ernment weary of more than two decades of conflict.

THE NEWS/letters
Editor, The News:Having been a student in
this school district for 13 years and now a teacher here for 16, I can honestly say I have never had the feeling I do now as Labour Day weekend approaches.
I love my job. I care for the students I teach. In the classroom is where I want to be.
I never imagined that I would be seriously consid-ering other employment options, but I find myself thinking about it.
The emotional roller coaster that we have been on during this round of bargaining will certainly have a lasting effect once we return to classrooms.
If the process underway between the government and teachers is being called bargaining, or negotiating, I thought it would be wise to take a look at what those terms mean.
Google defines negotiate as follows: try to reach an agreement or compromise
by discussion with others.Obviously, both sides
want different things. That’s why we need to ne-gotiate an agreement.
However, there has been no real negotiating hap-pening.
As a comparison, imag-ine a conversation between a parent and child where the child is looking for a raise in allowance from $2 a week.
The child brings an initial offer: $10 a week.
The parent makes a coun-ter offer: $2 a week
Child: $8 a week.Parent: We have no mon-
ey to pay you more than $2 a week (but the family just built a pool in the back-yard).
Child: $6 a weekParent: We are willing to
negotiate 24/7 with you, but you need to come to the ‘affordability zone,’ $2 a week.
This is not bargaining.The government is not
negotiating.
The government needs to come to the table without predetermined goals as this does not mean compro-mise.
It also needs to come to the table with additional funding to help reduce class sizes and improve class composition.
After all, the money was there before the govern-ment illegally took it out of the education budget.
Where has it gone?Parents, grandparents, ev-
eryone who believes in the value of public education, please make your voices heard.
Call our MLAs, Doug Bing and Marc Dalton. Call our school trustees. Ask the government to negotiate with teachers.
Andrea MunroMaple Ridge
Daycare costs more?Editor, The News:I’m not taking any side on
the teacher dispute, as I’m
not in the negotiations. But I do have some ques-
tions I don’t understand. Parents with kids under
13 will get $40 a day dur-ing the strike. If you ex-trapolate this to a class of 25, that’s a $1,000 a day or $20,000 a month.
Now, if a teacher was look-ing after the same number of kids, that’s $6,000 to $8,000 a month, or $12,000 to $14,000 less per month.
The other difference is one is babysat and the other is taught.
Also, there are guidelines set down by the B.C. gov-ernment for daycares that set the level of kids at eight or less per daycare worker, yet a teacher can have 30 or more kids.
So why does the govern-ment set limits for daycares and not schools?
What I’m seeing is it would cost way more to have kids in daycare than in school.
Gary FowleMaple Ridge
Editor, The News:Re: Path to recovery (Letters, Aug. 22).Please do not mistake me for a hater. I do believe in
the Caring Place and what it offers and the people it helps.
I do believe we have to help the less fortunate. My inability lies with the less fortunate taking ad-
vantage and disrupting the surrounding neighbors and neighborhood.
I do understand that the Caring Place offers shelter, food and assistance to those in need, but I do not be-lieve it should operate at our expense.
Its operation locally presents consequences. Do you have a solution or answer to this problem oth-
er than the obvious, which is to move the location of the source?

Toll all major crossingsRoger Craik · Maple Ridge, British Columbia:Re: One option for toll bridges (The News, Aug. 22).Let’s harmonize the tolls and further, toll all major crossings in the Lower Mainland. This is a relatively inexpensive option to set up. The tolls on each bridge could be set at a lower rate and existing toll bridges could be subsidized as necessary with money also being set aside for new crossings. No one area would be getting gouged because of required bridge use.

Coun. Bob Masse wanted to know how people and cars will cross CP Rail’s train tracks.
They’ll do so using two controlled crossings that are already there – one that leads to the wharf, which has gates and lights, and another cross-ing farther east.
“That is the intent, is to enhance those as re-quired, to accommodate the amount of traffic that will happen, both for the residents and the visitors down to the location,” said Norman Laube, with Omicron Canada, partnering in the devel-opment with Northview Enterprises, which owns the former log sorting property.
The townhouses will be metres from the CP Rail mainline, but construc-tion will include triple window glazing and vibration isolation pad-ding in the foundation.
Coun. Mike Morden wanted to know how stable the soil was in the
area. But a geotechni-cal report by GeoPacific Consultants says the soil conditions will al-low building without any piles, which would have to be sunk into the ground, or preloading of soil.
“So it’s a very solid, stable base that’s there now,” Laube told council, which first saw a presen-tation on the proposal in July 2012.
Coun. Al Hogarth is concerned about the height and density of residential development along the tracks, where train whistles could prompt complaints.
“These are two ma-jor crossings where the whistles are going to continue,” he said. “Have you looked at any alter-native access to the site?”
An overpass over the tracks farther east, where the Ministry of Trans-portation and Infra-structure is trying to sell property, could provide a link to the Albion Indus-trial Area.
Laube said building close to the railway was one of the first questions addressed when plan-ning the project. But he pointed to the new hous-ing project called Bed-ford Landing in Langley near the CN mainline which uses signalized crossings and sound at-tenuation measures.
An overpass would be expensive and there are only 300 units in all in the multi-phase project, Laube added.
Hogarth said in the past, there have been two train derailments within a kilometre of the site.
“The question for me would be around look-ing at the safety,” not just noise, he added.
According to the Ma-ple Ridge Museum, a de-railment occurred in the 1940s and another on May 2, 1981.
A staff report notes that the site is in the flood-plain of the Fraser River, but living space will be located above the flood-plain elevation.
Steve Litke, with the Fraser Basin Council, said building in the flood plain is the norm in the Lower Mainland.
“The ideal is we don’t develop those types of areas and give it [the riv-er] more space.”
Instead, buildings in the flood plain are built to ensure the living space is above the Fraser Riv-er’s flood of record set in 1894.
“My personal bias, and I’m not speaking for the Fraser Basin Council, is the most effective way … is to stay back from the river on high ground.”
But he knows that’s not realistic.
One compromise for builders would be to raise their building by another, say half a metre, above flood level, to add further protection and protect a project over a longer period of time from the coming effects of climate change and higher water levels.
The Fraser Basin Coun-cil is currently working on a Lower Mainland Flood Management Strategy to work out a re-gional plan involving all levels of government.
“The costs of respond-ing to a major flood event far outweigh the costs as-sociated with effective, proactive planning and investments across the region,” the council says on its website.
More than 300,000 people already live in the flood plain in the Lower Mainland, says the Fra-ser Basin Council.

The lacrosse community in B.C. is mourning the loss of a Maple Ridge player who died Saturday in a car crash.
Mikey James Vukovic. of Mis-sion, was a top scorer with the Ridge Meadows Burrards inter-mediate A team.
There senior men’s Burrards were to observe a moment of silence for 18-year-old Vukovic during the WLA playoff game at Planet Ice on Monday, said his coach Doug McQuarrie.
Team rivals, the Victoria Shamrocks did the same at their home playoff game on Sunday.
McQuarrie said the intermediate A team is also looking at retiring Vukovic’s Burrards jersey at next season’s home opener.
A funeral service for Vukovic will be held at Saint Joseph Catholic Church, 32550 Seventh Avenue in Mission on Friday, Aug. 29 at 11 a.m.
Anyone who played lacrosse with him is encour-aged to wear a team jersey in tribute to him.
In lieu of flowers, his family has asked that dona-tions be made to Mission Minor Lacrosse.

A townhouse complex in west Maple Ridge was evacuated Tuesday after a rotting tree toppled onto a roof of one unit.
No one was home at Unit 4 when the tree fell around noon, buckling a large section of the town-house roof.
Carol Godin, who lives in a home behind the complex at 12075 – 207 A Street, heard about five “terrible” cracks and a “thud” before she ran out to investigate.
“I figured it was a tree,” said Godin. “We were just discussing it three days ago.”
Krystal Pitt and her two children were playing on the deck of the townhouse next door when she, too, heard ominous creaking. She grabbed her kids and ran out of the front door.
“I didn’t even wait to see where the tree hit,” Pitt said as she waited for the fire department and an arborist to determined whether it was safe to re-turn home.
The split cottonwood was growing in a ravine where McKinney Creek flows and lies in a thicket of trees that are rotting.
Assistant fire chief How-ard Exner said half of the cottonwood brought down a maple tree, then fell on to the roof and buckled it.
“My concern is that the cottonwood is severely cracked and has root damage and we are wor-ried about it dropping on other houses,” Exner added.
“The complication is that it is private property ... We have to work with the people who run the strata here.”
All five units in the complex were evacuated as a precaution. Residents were not allowed to re-turn home until authori-ties determined it was safe.

Three brush fires were sparked Friday along train tracks in Maple Ridge, but were quickly extin-guished before flames reached homes.
The fire department received several calls about the fires after drivers saw smoke billowing to-wards Lougheed Highway from the Canadian Pacific Rail tracks below around 2 p.m.
The first and largest fire ignited near 256th Street and the high-way. It grew to 110 feet in length, extending 50 feet up a treed em-bankment before crews extin-guished all the flames.
The second fire sparked near 280th Street and spread 100 feet in length and 10 feet wide.
“It got a little smaller as the fire progressed east,” said assistant fire chief Michael Van Dop.
The third fire near 287th Street was 48 feet long and 10 feet wide.
Crews from three fire halls were called in to fight the fires and took more than two hours to put out hot spots.
CP Rail confirmed the cause of the fires is still under inves-tigation.
Van Dop said CP staff indicated there was no grinding or work be-ing done along the tracks. The fire could have been sparked by a hot wheel or brake.
“There is no shortage of things on trains that can get hot and throw sparks and cause these sorts of problems,” Van Dop added.
Last year in July, two brush fires were started by sparks from a freight train chimney traveling through the same area.
Friday’s fires were put out before flames ignited tinder dry brush along a steep slope and spread to homes along the highway.
“We were fortunate that no structures or properties were
threatened,” said Van Dop.“That’s why I’m investigating to
see if we can find out what hap-pened and see if we can mitigate it in the future. These fires are pretty man-power demanding and it disrupts all kinds of stuff.”
Although temperatures are dropping, the wild fire risk in Ma-ple Ridge remained at moderate as of Monday.
The Coastal Fire Centre lifted a campfire ban on Tuesday, but Van Dop said with continued warm temperatures, the fire de-partment still wants people to be cautious about where they extin-guish cigarettes, light campfires and barbecues.

Thanks Bruce
I have a young family, a husband and three kids and my life is very complex. I needed choice, customization and spending a lot of money on glasses was something I couldn’t justify. My Great Glasses experience was awesome. I didn’t need an appointment for my eye test and I got three pairs of glasses for less than I paid for one pair at my regular optometrist. I couldn’t believe how great the deal was and how accommodating the staff were to me. I will not buy glasses anywhere but Great Glasses in the future. I’m so glad that Bruce was willing to ght for good customer value.
Sincerely, Amy Gill

Twelve years ago when Maple Ridge resident Wim Hunfeld was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease, he was
stunned.The 63-year-old grandfather of eight, and
longtime landscaper who now babysits and grows produce just to keep his grandchildren healthy, said the news that his shaky pinky was indication of the disease was mind-numbing.
“It came as a surprise. It was not something running in my family,” he said.
Although devastated to hear the news, Hun-feld decided to take action. He knew he could not give in to the disease’s ability to incapaci-tate individuals.
Hunfeld jokes about the sort of patience Parkinson’s sufferers have to have to manage everyday activities.
“You’re a patient who has to have patience,” he says.
Defined as a degenerative disorder of the central nervous system, Parkinson’s is report-ed to be more common in older people with most cases occurring after the age of 50.
Those who are diagnosed have usually expe-rienced neuropsychiatric symptoms ranging from mild to severe.
Besides staying active in his day-to-day life, Hunfeld is an active participant in the nation-al fundraising event called Parkinson Super-Walk.
Since 2010, he has taken part in the event, scheduled to take place this year on Sept. 6 at 11 a.m. at Spirit Square in Pitt Meadows.
Hunfeld, with a team of community sup-porters, has raised more than $10,000 since he began participating in SuperWalk, the larg-est national fundraising event for Parkinson’s disease.
This September, 110 communities across Canada will join the fight to find a cure.
Nationwide, the goal is to raise $3 million. “I believe that finding a cure is close at
hand,” says Hunfeld.• Participants can register for the Super-
Walk at parkinson.bc.ca.

The Alouette River will turn yellow Sunday as a raft of rubber ducks take to the water for the fourth annual Meadow Ridge Ro-tary Duck Race.
The race will take place at 1 p.m. on Sunday at Maple Ridge Park to raise money for local children’s sports.
This year, KidSport will be re-ceiving 25 per cent of the proceeds.
KidSport gives out grants for chil-dren to play sports who wouldn’t necessarily be able to afford to play.
Last year, KidSport B.C. helped more than 6,700 children with nearly $1.4 million in grants.
Locally, the group helped 330 children participate in sporting activities.
Rotary is hoping to sell 10,000 tickets at $10 each to raise $100,000 for the local youth organizations.
Last year, $89,555 was raised for 27 non-profit organizations and Rotary youth projects in Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows.
Every dollar raised stays in the community.
This year, more than half of the tickets have already been sold, said organizer Bob Schantz.
“We’ve got the cash in for half, but we have a whole bunch that are outstanding. We’ve called for all of the sold tickets to be in by Friday
this week,” said Schantz, in order to start labeling the ducks.
They will be on sale until race time on Sunday.
The event will run from 10 a.m. until 3 p.m. in the park with ac-tivities for people of all ages. Enter-tainment will include local artists Aaron Connaughton, Andrew Gir-big, Paul Haskel and Mike Walker.
There will be a bouncy castle, face-painting, balloon artistry by Click and Clown, and carnival games like a water balloon throw and duck pond fishing with prizes for all the children.
The grand prize this year is a 2013 Fiat 500 POP hatchback from Maple Ridge Chrysler, valued at $21,380.
Second prize is a week stay in
Whistler, B.C. valued at $2,000.Third prize is a Mark’s Work
Warehouse $1,000 gift certificate.Fourth prize is a $1,000 Fuller
Watson furniture or mattress pack-age.
Fifth is two rounds of golf for four people at Meadow Gardens Golf Club, including a golf cart and, sixth is a 32” flat screen tele-vision valued at $450 from Haney Sewing and Sound.
Food vendors are still being sought for the event. If interested contact Ineke Boekhorst at 604-467-2420.
Tickets can be purchased at participating sponsors and youth groups, including Westminster Savings at both their Maple Ridge branches until race day.

Banjo picker Gordie Sadler did not always favor bluegrass over
other musical styles.When Beatles mania was at its height,
Sadler was plunking organ keys, keeping rhythm with his rock and roll high school band at the time.
But when he heard the sounds of legend-ary bluegrass artist Bill Monroe, Sadler picked up his banjo and never put it down.
Since the age of 20, the father of two daughters and grandfather can recall prac-ticing his banjo, which these days is a fea-tured instrument in his bluegrass band, 5 on a String.
The quintet from Belcarra is back at Maple Ridge’s True North Fraser Bluegrass Festival this year, Aug. 29-31 at the Albion Fairgrounds.
For the second straight year, the festival is back with a new slate of bluegrass art-
ists, who this year come from as far away as Xenia, San Francisco, Seattle, Victoria and Powell River.
Sadler emphasizes organizers are strict about their policy of only new acts, and because of that, was hesitant to play the event again.
“We were convinced, however, to come back,” he says.
Fans of the band will be grateful for its return on the Albion main stage, as 5 on a String plans to unveil some of its newest renderings from its 25-year anniversary and fifth CD, which has yet to be released.
Faster-paced, toe-tapping cover tunes, including the Monroe-classic Big Mon, Lit-tle Girl in Tennessee, by Lester Flatts, and Foggy Mountain Top, by the Carter family, are just some of the album’s songs.
Five on a String fan favorites, like the four-part harmonies it is known for, will still be part of the set, Sadler adds.
Other event favorites that allow organiz-ers to call their show a “wholesome family affair” will be back, as well.
Sadler expects the campfire singing cir-cles and unplanned musical jams again. He
recalls having the opportunity to play with Monroe, a headliner at a Seattle festival at the time, because of an impromptu park-ing lot jam.
“Headliners coming down into the park-ing lot – when do you ever hear of that happening at the bigger festivals?” Sadler asks.
Free nightly corn roasts are back, too.A truck full of approximately 120 dozen
cobs of corn are brought to the fairgrounds to feed the more than 120 RVs and 150 tents filled with campers.
Brought in from Chilliwack, the corn is the only remaining connection to the event’s 25-year history there.
“When the festival came to Maple Ridge, there was a goal to rebrand the event and make Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows a destination for bluegrass fans,” he explains.
The new location and organizers’ efforts may be paying off as festival organizers say feedback at the inaugural event last year was highly positive. Fans preferred the green outdoor ambience of Maple Ridge compared to the flat farm land of Chilli-wack, says Sadler.
As a result, and the fact the festival marks the end of the bluegrass summer season, organizers are expecting similar camper counts to what they saw in years before it came to Maple Ridge.
“We had 120 RVs in Maple Ridge last year compared to some where between 150-175 in Chilliwack, and this year we expect to get the full complement.”

He was not sup-posed to live beyond the
age of eight.Now the four-time
Canadian national hip-hop champion and cys-tic fibrosis survivor is setting his sights on the World Hip Hop Cham-pionships.
Maple Ridge profes-sional hip-hop dancer Ryan Morrissette has made entertainment headlines before with his successful dance ca-reer.
In 2012, he was part of the CityTV talent show Canada’s Got Talent fi-nals. Morrissette and his eight-member hip hop crew Freshh performed in the competition, which some say paved the way for their domi-nation at the World Hip Hop Dance Champion-ship, held in early Au-gust in Las Vegas.
Coached by cho-
reographer Cezar Tantoco, who has been dancing since 1984, Freshh, a team comprised of dancers from around Metro Vancouver, took home gold in the event that brought together dance crews from nearly 50 countries to compete in four divisions.
Morrissette’s latest conquest involves rais-ing funds for the inter-national hip-hop com-petition happening in September in Bochum, Germany. Selected by the Canadian National Dance Team to rep-resent Canada as the team’s assistant captain, Morrissette has to raise enough funds to cover travel, accommodation, a Team Canada jacket, choreography, coaches and entrance fees.
“Auditions for the Ca-nadian National Dance Team brought some of the best dancers from across Canada, vying for a position on the team
to represent Canada at the World level,” said Bonnie Dyer, National
Dance Direc-tor for Team Canada.
Since the age of two, Mor-rissette has been battling the inherited and fatal lung disease, which causes thick, sticky mucus to build up in
the lungs and digestive tract.
“Physical activity is good for it,” said Mor-rissette. “Cardio opens up your lungs. It makes you have to breathe big,” he told The News in a previous interview.

The Burrards lost Game 4 of the WLA finals 10-7 to the Victoria Shamrocks Monday in Maple Ridge, despite six goals from Ben McIn-tosh.
The Burrards trailed 3-1 after the first period, but were tied 5-5 after the second. But after Curtis Dickson scored for Ridge to open the third, Victoria scored five straight times for a 10-6 lead.
McIntosh netted his sixth goal of the night on a power play with 1:54 left in the game, but it wasn’t enough.
“Unfortunately, we need more than two guys scoring goals,” said Burrards head coach Chris Gill.
McIntosh now has a league-lead-ing 24 goals in 10 playoff games.
He and Dickson have combined for 18 of the Burrards’ 31 goals in the final series.
Together they had 22 shots on net in Monday’s game, more than half the team’s total.
“We have to be better offensively,” Gill said. “We have to spin the ball a lot more, create our chances ... We’ve been a bit flat in this series.”
The Burrards now trail in the se-ries 3-1.
Maple Ridge had pulled within a game of Victoria with an 11-9 over-time victory Sunday on the island.
Dickson, held off the scoresheet until the third period, scored his second goal of the game at 8:24 of the extra frame, giving Maple Ridge a 10-9 lead.
Patrick O’Meara added an insur-ance marker 1:16 later.
Frankie Scigliano made 53 saves.“He’s been our best player through-
out the playoffs,” Gill said. If so, McIntosh has been a close
second.“He’s a stud offensively,” Gill add-
ed.McIntosh led the local senior
men’s lacrosse team with three goals and two assists on Sunday, while Ri-ley Loewen had two goals and two assists. Jarrett Davis added a goal and an assist. Brandon Bertoia also
scored.The Burrards trailed 4-3 after the
first period and 6-5 after the second. Dickson’s first goal of the contest, with 4:29 left in the third, tied the score and forced overtime. His sec-ond was the winner.
Victoria won the second game of the series 12-8 on Friday before 500 spectators at Planet Ice. The Sham-rocks scored five straight goals to start the second period, and seven straight total. The Burrards scored three times in the third, which de-volved into a series of fights and ejections.
McIntosh had four goals and two assists to lead Maple Ridge. Loewen had two goals and two assists. J. Da-vis had a goal and three helpers.
Game 5 of the series if Wednesday in Victoria. Game 6 would go Friday at Planet Ice in Maple Ridge, 5:45 p.m.
Gill is confident the Burrards can stretch the series to seven games.
“We’re confident going to Victoria and winning. We’ve done it before,” he said.
“We expect to go seven games.”

Junior B
Flames rookies [email protected]
The Ridge Meadows Flames opened the junior B exhibition season Friday at home with a 9-4 win over the Delta Icehawks.
Halen Cordoni, who played for the Ridge Mead-ows midget A1 team last season, led the Flames with five assists.
“That’s pretty impressive,” said Flames head coach and general manager Jaime Fi-set.
He added that Cordoni not only has good vision for a player his age, but that he warmed quickly to the hit-ting and intensity of the ju-nior B game.
“It was just an outstand-ing game from him.”
Fiset was impressed by another prospect, 16-year-old Trey Cadwell, who scored in the game.
“He’s a solid, two-way player,” Fiset said. “He works hard. Just everything you like in a young player.”
Returning players Jake Holland, Nicholas Mayda-niuk and Michael Bell also played well, each scoring a goal.
The Flames took a 4-0 first-period lead, then scored twice more in the second frame and added three in the third.
Fiset the game was closer than the score reflects, and that Delta’s goalie struggled.
He expects Friday’s con-test against the Aldergrove Kodiaks to be closer, and in which he’ll sit more vet-erans to give the younger players a closer look.

Euna Han came from behind to win the 2014 B.C. bantam girls golf cham-pionship in Chilliwack on Friday.
Han, a member at Meadow Gardens in Pitt Meadows, was third after the first day, then shot a two-under 68 on the second for a total of 138, or -2. She was the only female competitor under par.
The 12-year-old golfer bogeyed only a single hole during her final round on the way to claiming the title, and played with composure be-
yond her age. She was pleased with her effort.“I just tried to play my best the
whole round. I didn’t know how the others were playing until the last cou-ple of holes.”
She added that her putting was strong the second day.
“I missed a short putt on 16, but just continued on and forgot about it, and I was a bit lucky today – I hit a tree and came back to the fairway, so I was lucky.”
Han finished eighth at last year’s bantam championship.

MIA & TOMMYMia is bonded with her brother Tommy so they must be adopted together. They came to us as a Cruelty investigation. Both cats are thin but gaining weight nicely, both especially Mia has some hair loss self in icted from stress. Getting out of their previous environment and being at the shelter has helped them and the hair is growing back now. These cats would be good in a home with another cat(s) and a dog may also be ok. They are also suitable with children. If you have space for two come see these gems today.
