A long overdue water line has been hit with another delay.
MATTHEW CLAXTONmclaxton@langleyadvance.com
More than a year behind schedule already, more delays are now plaguing the East Langley Water Supply project.
Last week, sub-contractors were digging up sections of the pipe along 52nd Avenue near 238th and 240th Streets.
There is debris – sand and gravel – in the pipeline, and flushing the system with water wasn’t clearing it out, said Ramin Seifi, general manager of engineering for the Township.
It will take six to eight weeks for the new subcontractor to open up the pipes and clean them. Seifi said the expected completion date for the work is now early January.
The water line is intended to deliver a new supply of Metro Vancouver water to Aldergrove and the surrounding area. Work started in 2013, and was scheduled to be finished by the summer of 2014.
In 2014 there were seal failures on some pipes, and WorkSafe BC was called in after a suggestion that workers crawling into the two-foot-wide (60 centimetre) pipes was con-sidered too dangerous.
Earlier this year, leaking joints required repairing defective pipes. There were major issues east of 248th Street up to 250th Street where the pipe curved to the north.
No one is more frustrated about the project’s delays than Chad German. His property, on 52nd Avenue at the edge of a ravine the pipeline had to cross, is part of the route.
He was initially told workers would be on his property for
about six weeks, possibly three months. But work kept getting delayed, and the crews were taking up much of German’s five-acre rural property.
“Half my property I couldn’t access,” German said.
German said they also fre-quently made it difficult to get
in and out of his drive-way, and that a diesel generator needed for pumps ran night and day near his house, affecting his sleep for more than a year. The noise and lack of sleep caused stress and aggravated an old work
injury, and German said he had to quit some schooling he was taking at the time.
He’s also worried the work might have affected the stabil-ity of the ravine bank directly behind his house.
The work on German’s property started in the spring of 2014, with surveyors there before that, and there was still equipment at the end of his driveway as of late October.
A 180-day extension to the first agreement to work on his property ran out in June. Since then, German has been disputing the issue with the
Township, though he has allowed work to continue.
German doesn’t even think the pipeline needed to cross his property. The pipe bends near his end of 52nd Street.
“The whole thing has been bullying,” German said.
Right now he’s hoping to get some compensation for the lengthy use of his land.
“I’m not looking for money here, I’m looking to make it right,” German said.
Langley Township’s mayor Jack Froese said there is no doubt that the project is behind schedule. Froese said contractor WestPro will finish the job.
No one on council is happy with the situation, Froese said.
It is uncertain whether the delay has affected the redevelopment of Aldergrove. One of the reasons for building the pipeline was to take pressure off Aldergrove’s existing, over-stretched water system.
The Township put in place a redevelopment plan for Aldergrove several years ago,
but only a few projects have been proposed since then.
“There might be some developments that are waiting for water,” Froese said.
But he said so far the lack of a water line is having no direct affect on the water needs of Aldergrove residents.
The delays won’t likely hit Township taxpayers.
“I don’t expect that there’ll be any extra costs to the Township,” Froese said.
The Township has agreed on a set price with the contractor, and WestPro will have to take
any loss from delays or cost overruns.
In the worst case scenario, if the Township were forced to take over the pro-ject, a bond paid for by WestPro would cover most costs.
However, that would require legal action.
Froese is aware of the com-plaints from people who have lived next to the pipeline con-struction for over a year now.
“Certainly, I feel for them,” he said.

LOCAL GOVERNMENT
Open houses gather opinionLangley Township residents were invited to help shape policy.HEATHER COLPITTShcolpitts@langleyadvance.com
Close to 300 people took part in the Township’s public engagement open houses last week, or less than one per cent of residents.
Interactive drop-in events were held Oct. 20, 22 and 24 at various locations to give residents a chance to express their views on Township policies, planning and procedures.
“When it comes to managing growth and planning our neighbourhoods, people have many different viewpoints, all of which are valuable, and we want to ensure everyone has a chance to be heard,” said Mayor Jack Froese.
Input from the open houses and feedback received by the Mayor’s Standing Committee on Public Engagement will help shape Township polices and procedures.
More information on the committee is avail-able at tol.ca/engagetol.

City and Township spending limits could cut back.MATTHEW CLAXTONmclaxton@langleyadvance.com
New spending limits pro-posed for municipal candi-dates could cut down the amount spent on Langley Township elections.
The new legislation was introduced to the legislature in Victoria Thursday by Community minister Peter Fassbender, himself a former mayor of Langley City.
The expense limits would drastically cut down the
amounts that have been spent in recent years in Langley Township, particu-larly for the mayoral race.
The limit is based on local population. In Langley Township, with a popula-tion of 104,000 in the 2011 census, mayoral candidates would have spending limits capped at about $64,000.
Mayor Jack Froese spent well above that, at more than $140,000 according to his final campaign disclosure documents.
Unsuccessful candidate Rick Green spent $44,000 in the last election.
Even in Langley City, where spending was much more limited, future candi-
dates could have to rein in their spending.
Mayor Ted Schaffer spent $27,000 on his last cam-paign. But given current population numbers of just over 25,000 people, the future spending limits would be about $20,500.
The new expense lim-its would also reduce the amount candidates for school board and council could spend to even lower levels than mayoral candidates.
The formula for mayoral candidates:
• $1 per capita for the first 15,000 population
• $0.55 per capita for the next 15,000 to 150,000 popu-lation
• $0.60 per capita for the next 150,000 to 250,000
• $0.15 per capita there-after.
For all other local offices:• $0.50 per capita for the
first 15,000 population• $0.28 per capita for the
next 15,000 to 150,000 popu-lation
• $0.30 per capita for the next 150,000 to 250,000 population
• $0.08 per capita there-after.
The expense limits will be adjusted up for inflation. As well, they will be slight-ly higher during the next election, especially in the Township, as the population is growing rapidly.

New zoo owner opts for anonymity when sale announced.HEATHER COLPITTShcolpitts@langleyadvance.com
The Greater Vancouver Zoo has a new owner, an entrepre-neur who started out teaching English.
The zoo made the announce-ment late Monday, noting that the news has been making its way through the grapevine.
“We are extremely pleased to announce that we have a new owner, and he is very keen to execute some big changes that we have all wanted and needed for many years,” said manager Jody Henderson.
The new owner is original-ly from China but has lived in Vancouver for a decade. Henderson said he prefers to remain anonymous.
“Many years ago he began his career as an English teach-er but for several years now, he has been a successful entre-preneur with a passion for cre-ating interesting and exciting places for people to have fun,” she said.
The first task was hiring an expert in zoos and animals.
The firm Bernard Harrison & Friends was on site last summer and will return as the consulting company develops a 20-year master plan for the whole facility. Henderson said there’s no specific timeline for that consulting work.
The sale closed in September
and no financial details were released. The previous owner, Duk-Wan Park, is in his 80s.
The zoo also announced recent animal births, including three squirrel monkeys and two maras (a burrowing, hare-like animal native to South America).
The zoo started as the Vancouver Game Farm in 1970. The name was changed to the Greater Vancouver Zoological Centre and in 1999 was renamed the Greater Vancouver Zoo.
The zoo has about 45 off-sea-son staff and about 55 during the busier summer season to care for more than 500 ani-mals. About 225,000 people visit each year. Henderson said the zoo will continue its con-servation and education work.

Spook season
It’s been a number of years since I’ve bumped into my
newspaper indus-try comrade Gord Kurenoff (who many moons ago worked as an editor in town).
I want to share a story he recently wrote about another person I classify as a friend – the madam of the manor, Tanya Nahal.
She is a local entre-preneur who year-round runs a small costume shop called Hallowville Manor in Langley City. But this time she’s making headlines, as Gordo tells it, because her passion for every-thing Halloween has prompted her to broaden her horizons and open two of the pop-up Halloween Alley stores.

Freedom from information
The provincial Liberals have had trouble with their backroom staff before, but their latest scandal should trouble everyone in the province.
B.C. Information and Privacy Commissioner Elizabeth Denham’s report of last week discovered a culture of con-cealment in several government offices.
The most troubling issues were related to Highway 16 in northern B.C., a.k.a. the Highway of Tears.
Requests for information on the high-way, where a significant number of women have been killed or vanished in recent years, were met with mass email deletions or deliberately narrow interpretations of Freedom of Information requests – inter-pretations designed to exclude any infor-mation of value.
The problems have reached into the office of Premier Christy Clark, and the Ministries of Transportation and of Advanced Education.
Even Transportation Minister Todd Stone admitted that he triple-deletes some of his emails but pooh-poohed Denham’s “interpretation” of the law.
Here’s a tip: Never trust anyone who’s first instinct when confronted with scan-dal is to suggest that it all comes down to “interpretation.”
Notably, Denham found that the major problem email-deleters were political staff-ers, party hacks rather than actual civil servants.
The Liberals have been in power in B.C. for 15 years now. They have improbably survived the complete implosion in popu-larity of former premier Gordon Campbell, leadership changes, controversial referen-dums and a major recession.
Unfortunately, their long tenure seems to have convinced many of the party hacks within the Liberal machine that they are not beholden to anyone. Not the press or the public, certainly.
When a government decides to con-trol and conceal information for political purposes, they have given up the right to govern. Clark needs to clean house, or step down.

L ike the zombies and vampires that will proliferate as the dark-ness descends on Saturday, Halloween is hardly recognizable
against what it was when the earth was young and I had to wear a fake beard so my neighbours could pretend they didn’t recognize me when I went trick-or-treat-ing.
We used to gear up for Halloween by rummaging through the closet for Dad’s and Mom’s oldest clothes. The rattier the better, of course. Favourite personas were tramps or dishevelled businessmen, trollops or old washerwomen.
You could get cheap make-up sticks for death-darkened eyes, and the old standby was throwing a sheet over your head and cutting out a couple of eye-holes – and that had better be a really old sheet! Pretty close to half of all the kids trick-or-treating were ghosts.
Everyone talked a lot about the “ghosts and goblins” spooking the neigh-bourhoods at Halloween, but I don’t recall actually ever seeing a goblin. I figure goblin costumes were too much trouble for any Mom with a house full of brats running her ragged and a sewing machine already loaded up with pants and shirts that needed mending.
Didn’t matter what we wore, anyway. The neighbours always recognized us – even the ones who pretended to be frightened by our creepy appearance.
Even when we were total-ly covered up under white sheets and talking with our creepiest moans.
The real trick was trying to fool someone – anyone! – handing out the treats.
If you have your goodies at the ready, how many of the ghouls and rock stars knocking at your door seek-ing sweet sustenance from you will you recognize?
Indeed, how many would you recognize even if they weren’t wearing masks and ghastly disguises?
Do you know all the kids in your neighbourhood? Do you know any of the kids in your neighbourhood... except maybe your own?
Most of us spooks and oddly put-together mini-adults walked around the block in our quest for treats.
Well, actually, for most of my friends and me, the “block” was about a mile up and down the gravel road we lived on. As I think back, I figure that totalled maybe nine houses, counting our own – a lot of work for limited rewards.
Some years, usually if the weather was good, we would hang a left at the end of the road and foray into the adjoining, slightly more densely populated neigh-bourhood. One of our older brothers
might tag along undisguised, to watch out for us, care-ful to stay in the shadows when doors were opened and treats handed out – so as not to give away our unsuccessfully concealed identities.
The chaperone was mostly a token, and often left out of the picture altogether. The neighbours all watched out for us from door to door.
I hate to sound like an old curmudgeon – even if I am one – but when we were kids, we frowned on the rich
brats from the high-end neighbourhood who got their parents to drive them all over town and bragged at school the next day about how they had to change pillow cases twice to keep up with all the treats they got to haul home. They didn’t even realize that their greed sucked the fun out of their own experi-ence.
Perhaps they were the reason that, just as television vampires have become mediocre, as monsters go, and zombies are now boringly commonplace, trick-or-treating has buckled under the weight of its uninspired hankering for selfish gain, and in the more successfully ghoulish households, Halloween finds costumed kids laughing at parties instead.
Treating kids becomes a party trick

A semi had its pup trailer go over the side of an overpass early Tuesday morning, blocking traffic around Walnut Grove and on the TransCanada Highway. Readers got in gear and reacted:
Sarah Atherton: Bet the driver had to change his pants.Sonia Kucharonok: Professional driver ? Says who! So now once again all feeder routes are all
messed up, rush hour traffic is nearing and Hwy. 1 is closed.Alayne Bateson: Managed to sneak around this one before they shut down the roundabout... kind
of a shock seeing it up close.Shirley Sawatsky: Holy cow! What happen here is not looking good by this photo. Thank goodness
no one was seriously injured.Lynn Swanson Berreth: Pretty crazy! Drove past is on way to appointment and it’s an intense
scene for sure!Anju Jain: People need to slow down and be more patient!Several people also tagged friends and family so they could find a different route before becoming
snarled in the traffic congestion that resulted.
What will re-elected MP Mark Warawa be doing in the next few months? The Advance asked him about his next steps. Readers reacted:
J. Kelias Restiaux III : He could have at least worked such details into casual conversation with us, at some point over the last 11, 12 years he was in office.

Dear Editor,I would like to take this oppor-
tunity to thank the more than 230,000 Canadians who contrib-uted to the successful delivery of the 42nd general election.
Once again, Canadians were willing to take time from their busy lives, making personal and professional sacrifices to work long hours to ensure their fellow citizens could exercise their democratic right to vote and receive the election results without delay following the close of the polls. I am overwhelmed by the exceptional professional-ism and dedication our election workers have demonstrated in serving Canadian electors, often
in very challenging circum-stances.
Some three million more Canadians voted at this federal general election than at the 2011 election, resulting in the highest voter turnout in more than 20 years. There was a remarkable level of voter activity through-out the election, which in some instances resulted in wait times at both the advance polls and on election day.
Our election workers provided the best service possible to their friends and neighbours in com-munities across our great land – for that is the true strength of our electoral process: Canadians working hard to make it possible
for their fellow Canadians to choose the elected officials who will represent them in the House of Commons.
There will be time in the coming weeks and months to review our electoral procedures and consider ways they could be modernized for future elections.
For now, our dedicated elec-tion workers should take great pride in their accomplishments and important contributions to our society.
I know that all Canadians join me in thanking them for their excellent work in the service of democracy.
Marc Mayrand, Chief Electoral Officer of Canada
Canadians deliver democracy
Dear Editor,On behalf of the 746 Lightning
Hawk Royal Canadian Air Cadet Squadron, we would like to extend our sincere appreciation to the community.
We recently held our biannual fundraising Tag Day activity.
Langley and Cloverdale busi-nesses and citizens were very supportive and generous toward our cadets.
The squadron currently has
more than 150 cadets in the program between the ages of 12 and 18.
Activities in which our cadets participate include community service, assisting the Legion with their poppy sales, Remembrance Day services, physical fitness, drill training, field training survival exercises, flight programs, and music, to name a few.
Fundraising offsets the costs of
the cadet program not covered by the Department of National Defence.
We are very proud of the leadership and citizenship of our air cadets and we thank the community for helping our cadets to achieve their goals.
Bruce Foster, Chair,
746 RCACS Lightning Hawk Sponsor Committee,
Langley
Air cadets appreciate public support
Dear Editor,I see the new bike lanes have
been put on 197th Avenue between Willowbrook Drive and 64th Avenue. Very nice.
I see homeless dressed all in dark clothing with shopping carts, dollies, wagons trans-porting who-knows-what using
the bike lanes. I don’t see bike riders using the new lanes.
They are still using the side-walks, riding right by the new white pictures of a bike on the street showing the “bike lane”.
They have no helmets, no safety vest, and dark clothing.
When are the cities going to
license bike riders, so when an accident does happen through careless use of the bike lane, motorists have some rights also?
Also how do shopping carts rate as motorized vehicles and get to use the street as their own private roads? Just wondering.

Circumstances may impact funds raised this year.RONDA PAYNEnews@langleyadvance.com
Between the two local legions – the one in Langley and the one in Aldergrove – nearly $140,000 was raised last year for local veterans through the poppy cam-paign.
Organizers of this year’s cam-paign hope for another positive run of raising funds for those who have served Canada, but one, Shirley Blair, the president
of the Langley Legion #21, is concerned recent changes may impact the branch’s ability to raise funds.
“We’ve just moved right in the middle of this [poppy cam-paign],” Blair said.
The branch recently closed the lounge on 56th Avenue and moved a block east to an office and meeting space.
“If we’d stayed at the other [site] during poppy season, we’d have had a lot more volunteers,” Blair added.
There are 100 time slots to be filled for selling poppies each day for the 12-day campaign in the Langley branch’s region.
Funds support veterans in the
local area.“This is the way we get money
to give to our community, our veterans, the transition house, services dogs, and training pro-grams,” noted Blair.
Getting things ready is a lot of work, done by volunteers like Barb Prystupa.
“That’s what we do,” Prystupa said. “We bag poppies and we campaign with poppies.”
Poppies are available by dona-tion, pins are $3, and bracelets are $2. Last year the Langley branch raised $106,000 in the poppy campaign.
Secretary manager of the Aldergrove branch #265, Madeline Roach noted that loca-
tion’s campaign raised just over $30,000 last year.
“It’s for veterans assistance,” she said. “It’s for dealing with veterans here and also we make donations to local facilities... for the veterans they have in care there.”
Members interested in helping with the poppies in Langley can contact the poppy chair office at 604-534-3619. In Aldergrove volunteers call Roach at 604-856-5473. Roach said the poppy campaign is the Legion’s one national campaign.
“It helps us with the continu-ing on of the Remembrance throughout the country,” she added.

LEGAL SYSTEM
Cities assess homeless court rulingCourts say homeless have right to camp on public land.KELLY SINOSKISpecial to the Langley Advance
Metro Vancouver municipalities will find it harder to dismantle camps or run the homeless out of town after a B.C. court ruling supported the right of homeless campers in Abbotsford to create tent cities on public land.
The move puts pressure on all cities across Metro Vancouver to find other ways to deal with the growing homeless population, which totalled 2,777 in last year’s homeless count.
“The chief justice was very clear, people need a consistent place to be,” said D.J. Larkin of Pivot Legal Society. “Municipalities all over this country need to take a good long look at their bylaws because they are not constitutional.”
Past attempts by cities to handle the homeless problem have varied widely, from bylaw officers shunting people from one spot to another to Abbotsford using chicken manure and pepper spray to break up tent cities.
In his ruling, Chief Justice Christopher Hinkson ruled Abbotsford’s policies violated the Charter of Rights and Freedoms, calling the use of chicken manure “disgraceful.”
While he noted there is a legitimate need for people to have shelter and rest during the day, he stopped short of ordering Abbotsford to designate land for a permanent encampment, suggesting it should be left up to municipalities.
Instead, he suggested following a Court of Appeal decision in Victoria to allow the city’s homeless to set up shelters in public spaces between 7 p.m. and 9 a.m. Margot Young, a professor with the Allard School of Law at the University of B.C., said the ruling is a dupli-cation of a case in Victoria, which has created problems for homeless people there, who take down tents every morning or face police raids.
This will make it easier for the homeless population to set up a tent in a park when it rains or snows or is cold outside, she said. “But it’s a victory on very narrow terms,” she added.
Langley City Coun. Gayle Martin argues the solution to the homelessness problem requires more than just shelters or housing, but should tie in social services. The City had 92 homeless people at last year’s count, and Martin said the recent judgment is concerning.
“Even if you find them housing,” she said, “my take on this is finding them a place to stay, putting them in there and shutting the door is not going to work. The provincial government in my opinion has to step up more.”

Langley Central Rotary Club hosts the 26th annual wine festival.
ROXANNE HOOPERrhooper@langleyadvance.com
All day long, the team at The Keg Langley is “giving ’er.” They’re prepping mass quantities of prime rib, buns, and all the fixings for 500 or more people.
But there’s no grumbling about the extra workload. In fact, far from, said gener-al manager George Missel.
He and the team are thrilled they get to play such a huge role in helping their community by helping the Langley Central Rotary host the “insanely popular” Fraser Valley Wine Festival.
Again this year, The Keg
is one of the food vendors at the charity event.
They will be serving up the signature prime rib on a bun, and also giving away bottles of Keg spice to the first 250 people who visit the table.
In its 26th year, the wine and food tasting event is the premier fundraiser for the local service club.
This year, money from the wine festival is earmarked to create a customized sen-sory room for autistic kids at Options Community Services Langley office, as well as provide seed money for a program called Starfish, which helps feed needy chil-dren in town on weekends.
“The Keg has always been a big player in Langley, insistent on giving back to the community where we live and play,” Missel said.
“And I think this is really a wonderful event these guys host. I’m really proud
– we’re really proud – to be part of it. There’s a lot of hard work that goes into making this magic happen from all of the members of the Rotary Club. It’s such a great group and such a great cause. Thanks for includ-ing us,” he said, shocked to realize he’s been at every event for the past 14 years that he’s been managing the local Keg.
Once again, this year’s wine fes-tival will be held at Willowbrook Shopping Centre. After the mall closes down at 6 p.m., an hour is spent transforming the space. And at 7 p.m., the guests are invited in sample more than 200 wines from around the world, as well as hot and cold hors d’oeuvres and samplings from Langley restaurants.
Committee member John Morgan remembers the first event in 1989, where they had fewer than 50 people and raised about $900.
But even back then, he said, it was a great way
to bring people together and to make some money for the community.
“It’s still a lot of work, but it’s also a lot of fun,” he said.
Paul Coltura has only been on the committee for
seven years, but he and his company BDO believe so strongly in the good work done by Rotary that they’ve contributed more than $100,000 in sponsorship to the event through the year, knowing that every cent goes to charity.
Dorothy McKim, the club president, was excited
to help decide where the money will be donated, and described the projects as worthy causes for kids in this community.
She’s always been impressed by this fundrais-er, calling it a “signature event for the community” that Rotarians, sponsors, and participants should be proud to be part of.
“This being the 26th year, our big push is to make it $1 million that we’ve given back to the community, and I believe we can achieve that,” McKim said.
Approaching their trad-itional sell-out status, the Fraser Valley Wine Festival is set for Saturday, Nov. 7, from 7 to 9:30 p.m. at Willowbrook.
Tickets are available through Langley Central Rotary members or online at fvwf.ca. They’re also avail-able at the customer servi-ces counter at Willowbrook.

A division of
Langley Pos-Abilities raises awareness of disabilities.
RONDA PAYNEnews@langleyadvance.com
There’s been a lot of buzz about the Langley Pos-Abilities Society lately, and for good reason. Founder of the soci-ety Zosia Ettenberg believes awareness of disabilities is key to understanding.
“My belief is that if people understand the disability, they are more likely to include the person with the disability in their circle of friends,” she said.
Two events – one past, one coming soon – give people an understanding of the challen-ges faced by those with vari-ous disabilities; from being in a wheelchair to being blind.
The September, Try on a Disability challenge, was well received, according to Ettenberg.
“It actually went extremely well,” she said. “I was very impressed with how everyone handled everything, especially our challengers.”
Challengers like City of Langley Mayor Ted Schaffer spent four hours in a wheel-chair to see what it was like. It was the first time Langley Pos-Abilities ran the event this way and KPU students created a number of films in tandem with the event.
“The students put together some really good films,” Ettenberg said.
All of the films, including the winning entries, will be posted on the society’s site at www.pos-abilities.org on Friday.
“I think it was an eye-opener for them [challengers] as well
as our students who were film-ing it,” she said, “to see our community is not as accessible as we thought.”
The next event for the Langley Pos-Abilities Society is the Masquerade Gala at the Cascades Casino Resort on Friday, Oct 30 at 6 p.m. The dinner can be experienced in the dark by donning one of the provid-ed blindfolds.
“It’s not mandatory,” noted Ettenberg of the blindfold aspect. “Someone who is blind is going to be teaching you how to eat your meal [without sight].”
The fundraiser will include dinner, live music, dancing,
silent and live auctions, and presentations. Auction items are diverse and include every-thing from sports event tickets to sports jerseys, wine baskets to artwork.
There will also be a dis-cussion about the differences between guide dogs and assist-ance dogs.
“And we have a quartet from the Langley Community Music School playing in the lobby and during the meal as well,” Ettenberg said.
Tickets for the fundraiser are $100 and can be purchased on the society’s website at www.pos-abilities.org or by contacting Ettenberg at 604-961-0117. Funds raised at the gala will help the society in its work to improve the quality of life for local people living with disabilities.
COMMUNITY
Dining in dark sheds lightLangley artists recognition in the country music world.ROXANNE HOOPERrhooper@langleyadvance.com
Again, a Langley quartet of art-ists has scooped up much of the hardware at B.C.’s country music awards night this past weekend.
As home-base to the BC Country Music Association and home to many of the province’s shining stars in the country music industry, it shouldn’t be a surprise to learn that so many of the industry accolades came home to roost in Langley after the awards event at the Hard Rock Casino in Coquitlam on Sunday night, said association vice-presi-dent and former Langley resident Linda Corscadden – who just so happened to be crowned country music person of the year.
Langley’s 37-year-old Dallas Smith stole the show, again.
He garnered the most bling including awards for the album, entertainer, fan choice, male vocalist, single, and website of the year awards.
He was joined in the spotlight, albeit briefly, by his friend and Willoughby neighbour Chad Brownlee, who earned himself the video of the year award for the song When the Lights Go Down. Brownlee also shared recognition with fellow Langley producer and musican Mitch Merrett, as well as Ben Glover, when accepting the SOCAN songwriter of the year award for the same song.
It was also a huge night – actually a big weekend – for Langley singer and songwriter Karen Lee Batten, who brought home her fifth female vocalist of the year award.
“This win is pretty special to me. It is my fifth BC female vocal-ist award that I have won, and is the most wins in this category in the history of the BC Country Music Association. I really can’t
believe it!” she told the Langley Advance.
She first won this first award back in 2004, with the release of her first independent country album Every Moment. She subse-quently won the title for the next two years, then “life happened, and I had to slow down for a couple years. I really do believe that it’s not what happens, but how you bounce back,” Batten said.
“No one let me stay down, my family and friend and the industry as a whole was right there all the time to say ‘get off you a** and keep going.’ I owe this to them, they helped me believe in what I do and kept reminding me that it is truly who I am,” she explained.
In 2014, Batten released her sophomore independent album Cause a Scene, and is about to release her fifth single, with plans to return to the studio early next year to work on her third album.
“There is nothing that makes me happier in my line of work than to be able to say that… Thank you, B.C. Thank you for this award. Thank you for believ-ing in me.”
Every industry has its con-ventions, but there are few that garner the level of attention that rains down on the entertainment world.

A Willoughby yard has a swashbuckling theme.
TROY LANDREVILLEtlandreville@langleyadvance.com
Derek and Tammy Condon will go to great lengths to raise funds for Canuck Place chil-dren’s hospice.
So much so, they trans-formed the front of their Willoughby home to resemble a set from the Pirates of the Caribbean, just in time for Halloween.
The couple has set up a pir-ate-themed haunted yard and garage at their home on 84th Avenue about a block east of 208th Street.
“We used to do themes with another family… at their location, and we were doing a lot more gore, cem-etery, zombie-type themes, and we weren’t getting very many kids,” Derek explained. “They’d actually come look at it but they wouldn’t come down the driveway.”
Pirates, even those of the skeletal variety, seem to have mass appeal to the 10 and under set, in Derek’s opinion.
The payoff is two-fold. It offers visitors some
Halloween fun and most importantly, to raise funds for a cause that is very close to the Condon family and their neighbours.
“There are three local fam-ilies, right in this little area, in this immediate neighbourhood, who have had to use Canuck Place,” Derek said. “That’s not a good thing. It’s usually ter-minal, 90 per cent of the cases, but it’s not just about the chil-dren, it’s about the families.”
The ship, which is lit up when darkness falls, is open to the public from roughly 4 to 8 or 9 p.m. each day leading up to Halloween night, Oct. 31.
Those who donate to Canuck Place will receive raffle tickets for various prizes as well as an Apple iPad Mini and gift cards
for local restaurants.The donor will be assigned
ballots into a random draw to be made at noon Nov. 4. Entries will be accepted till Nov. 1 at midnight.
The ballots will be allocated as follows: Donations of $10 to $50 equals three ballots, $50-plus equals five ballots, and $100-plus equals 10 ballots.
Donation envelopes will be available at the pirate ship. People can also donate online through the Condon fundrais-ing page on the Canuck Place website.

Fynnleigh Wilson, three-and-a-half, visited a fire truck and gave a sizable pumpkin a lift at Aldor Acres in Glen Valley on Oct. 17. The truck was parked at Aldor Acres during the sixth annual Pumpkin Patch event co-hosted by the Langley Township Fire Department and Envision Financial.
Aldor Acres was ‘incredible host.’While the sun only made a few brief appear-
ances, it was a fine day to visit a pumpkin patch in Glen Valley on Oct. 17.
The BC Professional Fire Fighters’ (BCPFF) Burn Fund and the Township of Langley Firefighters, with support from Envision Financial, hosted the sixth annual Pumpkin Patch event.
A total of 160 people including Township fire-fighters and their families took part in activities that included a petting zoo corner, hayrides, picking out a pumpkin to take home from Aldor Acre’s pumpkin patch, a visit with Sparky the Fire Dog, a tour of a Langley Township fire truck, and a hotdog lunch.
The BCPFF Burn Fund provides life-saving, life supporting and life enriching services to residents of BC. More than 3,800 B.C. firefight-ers donate their time and skills to support burn survivors and increase the public’s knowledge about fire and burn safety issues.
“We’re so proud of the way this partnership has developed over the past six years,” said Susan Byrom, senior manager of community investment at Envision Financial. “This unique, community driven program really comes along-side those who have been affected, while seek-ing to educate and prevent others from becom-ing victims.”

Moya is a very friendly German Shepherd looking for someone to give all that love to. Moya requires slow introductions to other dogs and could likely live with the right dog. A confident cat is a possibility for this girl. Moya grew up with children so she would love to share a home with them or have them visit. Walking Moya requires a confident leash holder as Moya is conflicted about meeting new dogs (barks anxiously
and pulls). This is something she overcomes after about 10 minutes of walking with the other dog ahead or behind a short distance. Moya has flea and food allergies so will require a special diet and good vet care life-long. In exchange you will get a dog that demonstrates why people love this adoring and loyal breed.

Vehicles involved in Sunday’s Brighton Commemorative Run start in Maple Ridge and wind up in Langley.
TROY LANDREVILLE
tlandreville@langleyadvance.com
Even if the vehicles tak-ing part in this Sunday’s London to Brighton Commemorative Run
travel well below the posted speed limit, they’d be racing at a breakneck pace if it was around the dawn of the 20th century.
On Nov. 1, the Old English Car Club’s Vancouver Coast Branch hosts its annual run, which starts at the east Maple Ridge A&W location and finish-es at the Fox and Fiddle Pub on the Langley Bypass.
The Fraser Valley cruise commemorates the U.K. “London to Brighton Vintage Car Run” which takes place the same day.
The first U.K. London to Brighton Vintage car Run was held Nov. 14, 1896, and was originally called “The Motor Car Tour to Brighton,” noted Malcolm Tait, a member of the organizing committee.
The run celebrates the repeal of the British law that limited vehicle speed to four miles an hour (6.4 kph) and required motorized vehicles to be led by a person waving a red flag.
Four mph was considered the pace of a fast walking person.
The new speed limit was 14 mph (or 22.5 kph).
The vehicles involved in the modern-day, U.K. version of the run are limited to those made in 1904 or earlier and last year there were 620 cars registered.
Closer to home, the run welcomes British cars of any vintage.
The chair of this year’s run is Maple Ridge British car buff Walter Reynolds, the proud owner of 1963 Rover P5 3 Litre. Reynolds has taken part in the run for the past 13 years, and has been a member of the event’s organizing com-mittee for the past four.
So why did he take on the role of chair? “No one else vol-
unteered,” he answered.It’s only natural that the
England-born Reynolds has had a near lifelong interest in British cars – he noted that his first car was a “black 1950-something Ford Prefect.”
A member of the Old English Car Club (OECC), Vancouver Coast Branch, Reynolds said British vehicles are “different” and “attract attention wherever we drive them.”
“Someone always knows of a person in their life, a rela-tive or a friend, who owned one of what you are driving,” Reynolds said, adding that the OECC’s London to Brighton Commemorative Run is “our way of celebrating what is a British landmark motoring event that has been held every year since 1896, except for the World War years.”
The highest total for the Canadian run has been rough-ly 60 vehicles, and who gets involved is often dictated by Mother Nature.
The beginning of November has “always been iffy,” Tait remarked. “A lot of the con-vertible drivers don’t like the wet weather,” he said.
The OECC Vancouver Coast Branch has been holding a celebratory run since 1996, the 100th anniversary of the U.K. run, and was started by then branch member Roy Wilkins.
For the first 12 years the cruise was called the “Ladner to Bellingham
Run” with the route going between those communities.
Due to delays at the bor-der crossing, the route was altered to remain in the Lower Mainland and the event’s name also changed to reflect this.
The starting point being north of the Fraser River adds a fresh new wrinkle, Tait said.
“The idea was to do some-thing a little bit different,” said Tait, the owner of a 1970 Rover 2000. “We’ve always done it on the south side of the river and this offers different roads, and the drivers will see a bit of different scenery.”
This Sunday, rubber will start rolling on the road start-ing at 10:10 a.m from the A&W at 228th Street and Lougheed Hwy. The convoy will travel through Maple Ridge, Mission, Abbotsford, and Langley before ending up at the Fox and Fiddle.
Cars should start arriving at the Fox and Fiddle from 12:30 p.m. “We expect at least 30 cars of many different types ages, shapes and sizes, all British, of course,” Tait said.
Registration is $5, with 100 per cent of proceeds going to the Friends In Need Food Bank. Cars taking part should arrive between 9 and 9:30 a.m.

STUART DERDEYNSpecial to the Langley Advance
There are common garden variety clowns. Then there is the King of Fools.
Fort Langley-bred Gordon White wears the royal laughmaker’s crown in Cirque du Soleil’s new show Kooza, which opens this week in the blue-and-white-striped big top tent in False Creek South. It’s a role the lifetime jokester relishes as it returns the company to its roots courtesy of globally famous guffaw guru, David Shiner.
“This is the first show I’ve ever done a creation for and
working with David is an honour as he has developed some of the finest pieces in the world, such as the now-classic silent movie where he pulls eight or so
audience members out and then makes a full silent movie with them,” said White.
For Kooza, the goal was to go back to the clowning and acrobatic roots of Cirque du Soleil, with less of the super high gloss production appar-atus of some recent shows.
The narrative follows the Innocent’s journey through a world of comic and ath-letic characters with a focus on such comic characters as White’s King of Fools, the robotic Heimloss and crowd-pleasing Obnoxious Tourist and Bad Dog.
“Everyone may not know it, but to really make it
work as a clown, you need to be completely exposed and vulnerable and in this one, I’m digging deep as I can into my inner dolt,” White said. “The King may rule, but he barely seems aware of where he is or what he’s doing.”
Being a clown is a unique headspace to maintain and makes clowns their own clique in the circus world.
“I knew I wanted to be a performer, specifically a clown, watching the Ed Sullivan Show as young as age five,” he said.

These days Halloween’s charac-ters look more like a Hollywood zombie set – but the central theme is one any long-ago pagan would recognize: on this night the dead walk again (symbolically) and spirits roam freely.
Some of the plants then considered power-ful have been found to be so.
Marijuana was one of the ingredients in the ‘flying ointment’ said to be used by witches to give the illusion of levita-tion. Once, it was reputed to assist visions for psychics.
Another ‘flying’ ingredient is acon-itum. Today it is used (in very minute doses) as a pain-killer in alternative
medicine. Its valued for its beauty and slug-resistance as a garden plant but is hugely poisonous. Used as a wolf poison for many years, aconitum should be treated with gloved hands and the utmost care.
One ancient name for fox glove (digitalis) is ‘Witches Thimbles.’ Tall and eye-catching with pink or white bell-flowers, it will grow in deep shade, flower for weeks and populate the neighbourhood if you let it.
Hellebore, another ‘flying’ favour-ite was used long ago as a cure for worms, lice and as a vomiting agent. It fell into disuse due to a high death rate among patients. Today its beauti-ful cup-shaped flowers and decorative leaves make it a valued garden plant.
But hellebore sap on naked skin can give you nasty burns and blisters.
Hazel is one of the trees associated with Halloween along with willow. Both were considered ‘magic’ trees with an especial attraction for water. They are still used for water divining.
Willow’s magic included its ability to relieve pain and to heal. The active substance in willow is salicyclic acid which is now made synthetically in the pain-reliever known as Aspirin.
Cuttings can root faster and strong-er if started in willow water. This is made by using water which has had many small-cut willow twigs soaking in it. The twigs are removed after a day or so and the cuttings either start-ed in that water or watered several times with it.
Halloween’s history is tied to gardening

This weekend’s orchid show and sale will offer workshops and unique varieties at the GPRC.RONDA PAYNEnews@langleyadvance.com
Orchid lovers unite in Langley each fall for the Fraser Valley Orchid Society Annual Orchid Show and Sale. This year’s Orchid Treasures themed event is on Saturday and Sunday at the George Preston Recreation Centre.
Show chair, Wayne Louie explained the show is a time for those familiar with orchids, as well as those who want to learn more, to see unique varieties that wouldn’t be available anywhere else.
“The public would not normally see these varieties at Home Depot or a garden centre,” he said. “That’s the unique thing about an orchid show, you will see things that are not main-stream.”
Some of the specialty orchids will be coming all the way from Taiwan with a grower who has his own greenhouse there known as Ten Shin Gardens.
“He is an orchid lover,” Louie explained. “Since he grows a different array, they are very different from what we have in Canada.”
Plus, there will be hybrids propagated from these unique varieties and as Louie noted, the best part is that the grower will sell off the
orchids rather than transport them home to Taiwan.
Saturday will be filled with presenta-tions and workshops from OSPF and others. In addition to displays and vendors, there is an
orchid market with local to international grow-ers.
Admission of $7 for adults, $6 for students and seniors, or free for children under 12 sup-ports the Langley Hospice Society.
Judging of exhibitor entries is set for Friday and the public is welcome to take photos of the entrants from 1 to 4 p.m. The orchid show runs Saturday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Eighty Years AgoOctober 24, 1935
ˠExtra-small, certified Green Mountain seed potatoes were shipped from Langley to Java. ˠProperty owners on South Biggar Rd. (224th St.) got electric light service after 17 residents signed up. ˠOne hundred tons of storage apples and pears were wanted by an advertiser offering $10-$18 per ton. ˠThe police commissioner’s report indicated there were 128 motor vehicle offences and 22 other types of charges in August and September. Eighty of the traffic charges ended in convictions, with fines totalling $401.50.
Seventy Years AgoOctober 25, 1945
ˠ Langley’s campaign in the Ninth Victory Loan series started with $87,000 subscribed in the first two days. The district quota was $405,000. Charlie Thompson was the organizer and Dave Barlow the chairman of the canvassing committee. Canvassers were R. Kent, F.D. Creelman, E. Dobling, George Twiss, James Grant, M. McGarrigle, A.E. Gibson, and Alf Marr. ˠOvercrowding of the high school prompted school trustee W.L. Dence to call for construction of a new one.
Sixty Years AgoOctober 27, 1955
ˠ Langley City appointed chartered accountant Howard Chadwick as its representative on the arbitration board handling asset and liability disputes with the old Langley municipality. He was to be paid $40 per day plus any stenographic expenses. ˠMabelson Rd. was left without access to the Langley shopping centre after heavy water flow undercut supports and toppled a bridge. ˠ Fort Langley’s Klondyke Night drew 2,500 merry-makers. ˠA single potato brought in to the Langley Advance office tipped the scales at 22 pounds, 12 ounces – which was topped by a 31-lb., 9-oz. whopper brought in by Mr. Dohm.
Fifty Years AgoOctober 28, 1965
ˠ Formal dedication of Trinity Junior College’s new library was accompanied by a tele gram from the library’s anonymous donor, challenging the capacity audience at the ceremony to undertake construction of a new gymnasium as the college’s project for 1966.
Forty Years AgoOctober 23, 1975
ˠGrowth in shipments of coal, potash, sulphur, grain and commodities led CN to consider double-tracking line from Matsqui, through Langley, to Port Mann. ˠPrime Minister Pierre Trudeau’s announcement of wage and price guidelines prompted Langley City Mayor Bob Duckworth to forego a wage increase of 62.5 per cent over two years, and to accept a 10 per cent raise instead.
Thirty Years AgoOctober 23, 1985
ˠHeavy rainfall washed away six canoes from a Langley Scout troop camping at Widgeon Creek west of Pitt Meadows.

ˠThe Langleys’ cultural centre task force was suspended during an in camera meeting of Township council. A task force member suggested that the City was unsympathetic. ˠ Langley residents were among the western Canadians who rushed east with a message of national unity on the eve of Quebec’s separatist referendum. As the entire country was caught up in the nationalist issue, Quebec’s provincial flag was flown over Langley City Hall in show of support for Quebecois – as Canadians.

Langley in history Playing a historical figure
is rewarding for Langley’s Keenan Marchand.RONDA PAYNEnews@langleyadvance.com
Those who have seen The Diary of Anne Frank know the holocaust account of a teenaged girl is filled with many emotions including sadness and joy.
Trinity Western University stages the hope-filled, prize-winning play until Nov. 7.
It is a story based on Anne Frank’s diary, which was recovered by her father after the Second World War. The detailed account of Anne’s thoughts
and feelings was turned into a play by Frances Goodrich and Albert Hackett – one that still resonates with audiences today.
Like most coming-of-age stories, there is a certain element of romance and Anne’s limited selection was Peter Van Daan, played by Keenan Marchand in the TWU performance.
“I like how there’s lots of different depths to him,” Marchand said of his first time playing a historical figure. “There’s lots going on and you can occupy his silence.”
Narrations from Anne’s diary run through the play. Her struggles through
fear to understanding and compassion are likely to be recognized by audience members.
Marchand, Langley born and raised, plans to pur-sue acting as a career and said simply, “I’m going for it.”
See the young actor’s performance and revel in the human spirit at TWU’s School of the Arts, Media + Culture at 7:30 p.m. Tuesdays to Saturdays or 2 p.m. for Saturday matinées until Nov. 7.

A five-month walk comes to an end for a hospice supporter.
MATTHEW CLAXTONmclaxton@langleyadvance.com
Ian Bos is almost finished his long walk across Canada.
Bearded and thinner than when he started, Bos has spent the last five months walking from coast to coast, raising money and awareness about hospice and palliative care.
He embarked from New Glasgow, N.S., on May 21 and walked about 45 kilometers a day, while carrying a 50 pound pack.
He met with the Supportive Steps walking club for part of his trek through Langley, and stopped at the Hospice offices Friday afternoon.
“It’s kind of a bittersweet thing,” he said of the imminent end of his walk, scheduled to wrap up in Victoria.
It’s been an amazing chance to raise awareness, he said.
Bos said his mind wants him to keep going, but his body is ready for it to be over.
During his walk, he has stopped at more than 100 hos-pices across the country. He said there is still a need for more services, and that two thirds of Canadians don’t have
access to proper palliative care at the end of their lives.
Also walking with Bos for a stretch was Langley’s own long-distance Hospice walker, Roy Clements.
The Langley Advance profiled Roy earlier this year just before he headed off to England to walk coast-to-coast there.
After coming home to Canada to get his feet looked at by a doctor, Clements then headed back to the U.K. to do another long coastal walk with
his grandsons.Those are just warmups for
the 70-plus man’s hike of the Santiago de Compostella next year.
That walk is a historic pil-grimage route through France and Spain.
Both men embarked on their walks to honour people who have passed away.
Bos is walking for his late father, and Clements does his walking in memory of his wife Doreen.

They gave of themselves for a collection of traditions

If, in the words of Henry Ford, “working together is success,” Langley’s Suzanne Northcott and her husband, David Kimura, are very successful.
The pair of artists have been working together locally and opened their first shared exhibit yesterday at the Fort Gallery.Translations is a blend of
Northcott’s Pondscapes painting
collection and Kimura’s photog-raphy, film, and bronze sculp-ture.
“It’s the first time David and I have shown together,” Northcott said. “It’s his first show in dec-ades... his first Canadian show.”
Kimura has been living and sculpting in Langley with Northcott full-time for a few years. He had been living in Seattle running a successful design business before returning his focus to art.
“We live at our studio right now,” added Northcott. “It’s a space that we’ve been using for the last couple of years. We have a very peaceful, kind of removed life here where we can work in close proximity.”
One of Kimura’s sculptures is in the garden behind the Fort Gallery; a garden which he designed and is in the process of creating.
“His sculpture has always been in the garden,” Northcott said.
The Translations exhibition runs until Nov. 15 at the gallery at 9048 Glover Rd.
The opening event is sched-uled for Friday, Oct. 30, from 7 to 9 p.m.
“There is a definite vibe,” noted Northcott of the combined work being shown in the gallery together.
“The vibe is peaceful and complex at the same time.”

Langley head coach Bobby Henderson said his team has been ‘snakebitten’ recently.
TROY LANDREVILLEsports@langleyadvance.com
The Langley Rivermen are going through an identity crisis.
Are they the team that reeled off four straight wins to start October, or the somewhat fra-gile bunch who have lost three of their past four games?
Langley head coach Bobby Henderson is trying to figure that out as the Rivermen pre-pare for home games at the Langley Events Centre against Coquitlam on Friday night and Surrey on Sunday afternoon.
“Our starts have been pretty good but our last four games haven’t been too great for us,” Henderson said, in the wake of his squad’s 4-1 loss to the visit-ing Alberni Valley Bulldogs last Saturday at the LEC.
Henderson said that there is no reason why the Rivermen can’t get back to playing solid, winning hockey again, once they regain their mojo.
Heading into this weekend, the Rivermen sport a 9-6 record.
“It’s typical of teams right now, with peaks and val-leys,” Henderson said, of the
Rivermen’s recent struggles. “We’ve been in a bit of a slump, here, of late, but we’re not playing bad hockey. We’re in games, it’s a matter of not getting the bounces and not playing with as much enthusi-asm as we’ve had.”
On Saturday, despite its 5-8-1-1 record, Alberni Valley domin-ated the Rivermen on both the shot clock and the scoreboard.
Alberni Valley outshot Langley 40-18, including 17-1 during the third period in which they scored twice to take a 4-1 advantage.
Matthew Graham scored the lone Rivermen goal in the first period, swiping a loose puck past Bulldogs goaltender Carson Schamerhorn.
Langley puck stopper Bo Didur was named the second star of the game as he made 29 saves over the final 40 minutes of action.
Alberni Valley’s leading scorer Josh Adkins notched a hat trick, sandwiching power play goals in the first and third periods around an even strength marker in the middle frame.
Henderson said the Rivermen scorers have been “snakebitten” recently and as a whole, the team has to “get back to having fun. We have to get reset and refocused.”
Leapfrogging the Rivermen in the Mainland standings are the second place Chilliwack Chiefs (9-5-1-2 for 21 points) and first place Wenatchee Wild (10-4-2-1 for 23 points).
ICE CHIPS: The Rivermen’s game versus Coquitlam on Friday has a 7:15 p.m. opening puck drop.
Sunday’s game against Surrey gets underway at 3 p.m.
Tickets for both are available at langleyrivermen.com or at the LEC box office.

Langley Rivermen forward Max Kaufman tried to set up a screen in front of Alberni Valley Bulldogs goaltender Carson Schamerhorn during Saturday’s B.C. Hockey League game at the Langley Events Centre. The Bulldogs downed the Rivermen 4-1.
North Langley is 6-1-1 on the season.
Opposing teams are having a bear of a time beating North Langley Football’s bantams.
The bantam Bears improved to 6-1-1 on the season with a convincing 40-0 victory over their cross town rivals, the Langley Mustangs.

Hometown boy Garrett Billings has an eye-catching resume.
Garrett Billings is coming home.The same way crafty guard Steve
Nash should have played for the for-mer Vancouver Grizzlies of the NBA, it seemed like a natural fit for Billings, a playmaking righty, to end up in his hometown of Langley as a member of the National Lacrosse League’s Vancouver Stealth.
The wait for Billings to play pro lacrosse in Langley came to an end this week when the Stealth acquired him in a trade with the New England Black Wolves.
In exchange for Billings, Vancouver sent forward Tyler Digby and a 2017 second round draft pick to New England. Digby just completed his second season in the NLL, compiling 38 goals and 36 assists for 74 points. He was a runner-up for NLL Rookie of the Year in 2014.
In Billings, Vancouver adds the first player in NLL history to record three consecutive 100 point seasons.
He was a finalist for the league’s Most Valuable Player award in 2012, ’13 and ’14 and has been the recipient of the league’s Sportsmanship Award in 2013 and ’14. He was also named to the NLL’s first all-star team in 2012, ’13 and ’14.
Billings adds yet another dimension to a Stealth offence that racked up 211 goals in 2015.
That offence already includes Rhys Duch (41 goals, 62 assists, 103 points in 2015), Corey Small (32 goals, 43 assists, 75 points last season), Logan Schuss (22 goals, 44 assists, 66 points), and Joel McCready (30 goals, 21 assists, 51 points).
Billings joined New England in 2015 in a mid-season trade with Toronto and appeared in eight games, regis-tering five goals and 31 assists for 36 points.
“I could not be more excited for this opportunity to join the Stealth, and I know my family is equally happy to drive just a few minutes down the road and watch me play,” Billings said. “Looking at this year’s roster, I am joining a very deep team with some great players, and with that comes great expectations. There is some pressure on me to perform well and I am looking forward to the chal-lenge.”
“Garrett brings great leadership to the offense. His lacrosse IQ is a tre-mendous asset for us,” Stealth head coach Dan Perreault said. “He is always looking to make his teammates
better and puts them in great situa-tions to score.”
Billings played for Burnaby in the B.C. Junior A Lacrosse League, where he won two Minto Cups (2004 and 2005) and Langley in the Western Lacrosse Association, leading the sen-ior A team to a Mann Cup appearance in 2012.
Adding Billings to the fold is a win in the marketing department; he will be a prominent member of the Stealth’s community outreach,
bringing with him experience in connecting with young lacrosse fans.
“Adding someone of Garrett’s calibre to an already solid offensive unit is huge for us. He brings a different dimension to the weapons we already have and the fact that he is a local player is fan-tastic,” Stealth president and general manager Doug Locker said.
“He is a familiar face to the public and we are excited to
show him off to the community he grew up in.”
It won’t be long before Billings gets to see his former team as the Stealth host the Black Wolves in their home opener on Jan. 9, 2016, at the Langley Events Centre.
Single game tickets for the Stealth’s 2016 regular season go on sale Nov. 10. Visit www.StealthLAX.com.

the Bears’ final touch-down on a spectacular 50-yard punt return.
Hurley and Jacob Ronald led the Bears defence with 12 tackles between them, and Alex Yoo had a crucial first quarter fumble recovery.
K’Paw Shee Htoo blocked a Mustangs’ punt, giving North Langley great field position early in the second quarter.
The Bears travel to Victoria next Sunday to battle the Spartans for second place in the division.

In a match-up of teams coming off wins in their previous games, the Bears beat the Chilliwack Giants Red 22-8 on Friday.
Marcus MacLeod, Bernemann Hoy, and Rylan Middleton ran for positive yardage during the Bears’ second possession that included a pass com-pletion from quarter-back Ben Evans to Hoy.
Lucca Patterson
tackled the Giants’ back for a loss of yards, and then MacLeod’s tackle capped a scoreless first half.
The Bears came out energized after the break and moved the ball up the field, and on the eighth play of their drive, Evans ran in for a touch-down.
The Giants answered to take an 8-6 lead.
Blocks from the offensive line includ-ing Rowen Engele and Gideon Bodill opened holes for the Hoy and MacLeod, and Middleton capped the drive with a touch-down. A succesful convert made it 14-8.
Later on, a nine-play drive ended with Middleton’s run for another touchdown to end the game’s scor-ing.
The announcer called out Ben Evans as “Tiny but Tough” and he was awarded Bears IHop player of the game.
Evans finished with a pass completion and touchdown, ran the ball for multiple yards, and made five tackles on defence.
– Cheryl Laroche Junior bantam BearsEven though the
Bears lost 24-12 to Chilliwack, there were bright spots.
Touchdowns were scored by quarterback Jesse Neilson as well as Charlie Ward while on defence, Conner Bernardino recovered a fumble and Aiden Morency made some key tackles.
Dallas Pattenden also had numerous first down carries.

Langley Minor Football’s midget-aged squad’s fine season continues.
The Langley Stampeders have charged out of the gates of their 12-man midget football season.
The Stamps posted another win Sunday, blanking the host Cloverdale Bengals 45-0 at Cloverdale Athletic Park.
The win ups Langley’s record to 5-1 in the Vancouver Mainland Football League’s Midget Division.
The Stamps struck quickly, with their initial scoring drive set up by an interception by Craig Clarot.
A 25-yard run by Devon Dacosta was followed with a 30-yard touchdown pass from quarterback Devante Wilson to receiver Simon Odong.
Langley’s second score came off a 45-yard pass interception and run into the Bengals end zone by defensive back Kyle Clarot.
A productive first quarter was closed out with a 17 yard field goal by Langley’s Nolan McMurchy.
The Stamps continued to domin-ate in the second quarter, as they marched from their own 45-yard line and completed their drive with a four yard plunge into the end
zone by Wilson. Another long drive from the
Stamps end of the field was capped by a toss by Joss Yanciw to Dacosta for a major as the Stamps led 38-0 at halftime.
Third quarter action saw another touchdown tacked on to Langley’s totals, this time with Wilson now playing receiver and catching a pass from Yanciw.
The final frame produced no scoring by either team.
Cloverdale had a good downfield march going but failed on three occasions at the end of the game to hit paydirt from the Stampeder’s 10-yard marker.
Langley’s next challenge will be this Saturday in Coquitlam when they tackle the league-leading Coquitlam Falcons in a battle for first place.
MIDGET FOOTBALL
Stamps tame Bengals
Langley Stampeders’ ball carrier Kevin Dacosta hit a hole opened up by teammate Travis Evans (No. 55) during the Stamps’ 45-0 shutout win over the host Cloverdale Bengals on Sunday.
Gotcha: Langley’s Emma Bauden aggressively pulled down an SFU ball carrier during Second
Division women’s rugby action Saturday at the Langley Rugby Club’s field on Crush Crescent.
Langley won the exhibition match 27-10. Meanwhile (right) Langley’s Gillianne Paddon felt the squeeze
from a wall of SFU defenders.

A unique fundraiser benefiting those with autism was held in Langley, and around the world on Oct. 17.TROY LANDREVILLEtlandreville@langleyadvance.com
Christopher Reed, his fiancée Jen Gibson, and her sister Lori Gibson powered through a very strenuous late Saturday morning, Oct. 17.
Reed, who owns and operates Sailor Jack’s Barbell Garage inside Canlan Ice Sports Langley Twin Rinks, completed 599 long cycles (lifts/repetitions) of a 16 kilogram (35 lb.) kettlebell for an hour straight.
Jen, meanwhile, completed 210 repeti-tions with a 12 kg (26 lb.) kettlebell in 25 minutes before finishing up the hour with 403 reps using a 10 kg (22 lb.) kettlebell.
Lori, having recently rehabilitated her knee from an injury she sustained while running, showed her support by per-
forming sledgehammer strikes to a truck tire for 15 minutes, and ended up ham-mering away for the full hour.
As well, Jen and Lori’s mom Rica Pizzanto also participated and complet-ed 200 repetitions using a 10 kg (22 lb.) kettlebell over 20 minutes.
They did all this inside Sailor Jack’s for Kettlebells 4 Autism one hour long cycle
challenge, which last year raised more than $70,000 for autism research and sup-port initiatives.
On Oct. 17, the Langley participants raised $465, just shy of their $500 goal.
Donations to Christopher, Jen, and Lori’s cause can still be made through the link: www.kintera.org/i.asp?id=1145987-427291861.
Created by Christina Danos in February 2013, Kettlebells 4 Autism (KB4A) has a goal of raising awareness about autism through kettlebell training and sport.
The event, along with merchandise sales, also raises funds for a minimum of four not-for-profit organizations.
Sailor Jack’s was one of three locations in B.C. and among 63 satellite sites in the world participating in this year’s one-hour long cycle event.
“We all started at the same time, so this is a simultaneous, world-wide initiative,” said Reed, who last year completed more than 700 reps over the hour.
Last year, Reed lifted for charity alone so having his fiancée and her sister work-ing out alongside him gave him even more motivation.
“It absolutely helps to have people around, with you, participating with you at the same time,” Reed shared.
Lori pushing through for the entire hour, 45 minutes longer than initially planned, was heartening, as well, Reed added.

DEVELOPMENT OF A PEST MANAGEMENT PLANApplication #: KMC-ROW IVMP-2015
Applicant: Kinder Morgan Canada (KMC), 7815 Shellmont Street, Burnaby BC V5A 4S9. Cheryl Thesen (403-358-2509) In accordance with the British Columbia’s Pest Management Act and Regulations, KMC is required to develop a Pest Management Plan (PMP) (for KMC the PMP is referred to as the Integrated Vegetation Management Plan (IVMP)). The PMP manages problem vegetation, including control of noxious weeds and invasive plants within KMC’s rights-of-way and access roads to its pipeline systems and facilities. In British Columbia, KMC operates the Trans Mountain Pipeline transporting crude oil and refined petroleum products and the Jet Fuel Pipeline transporting aviation fuel. The pipelines are located below ground and in proximity to the following communities in British Columbia: Valemount, Albreda, Blue River, Avola, Vavenby, Clearwater, Little Fort, Darfield, McLure, Heffley Creek, Kamloops, Merritt, Kingsvale, Hope, Chilliwack, Abbotsford, Sumas, Langley, Surrey, Coquitlam, Burnaby, Vancouver and Richmond.This PMP has been prepared to replace the existing 5 year PMP which expires in 2016. The proposed duration of the IVMP (PMP) is from March 31, 2016 to March 31, 2021. The vegetation management and weed control methods proposed for use include hand cutting and pulling, mowing, trimming, pruning, selective slashing, retaining existing low ground cover, and seeding, fertilization where set backs permit and tree/shrub plantings. The use of pesticides is intended within the area to which the PMP (IVMP) applies and may include the use biological control agents. KMC conducts all work, including pest management, in strict adherence with all applicable laws and regulations. The common names and an example of trade names of the pesticides proposed for use under this plan include: aminocyclopyrachlor (Navius VM), aminopyralid (Milestone), chlorsulfuron (Telar), clopyralid (Lontrel 360), dicamba (Vanquish), diflufenzopyr (Overdrive), flumioxazin (Payload), fluroxypyr (Retain B), glyphosate (Vantage XRT), MCPA (MCPA Amine 500), mecoprop-P (Mecoprop-P), metsulfuron methyl (Escort), picloram (Tordon 22K), triclopyr (Garlon XRT), 2,4-D (2,4-D Amine 600), Hasten (adjuvant) and siloxylated polyether (adjuvant). Application methods include: backpack, power hose and nozzle, wick/wipe-on applicator, squirt bottle and boom sprayer. A draft copy of the proposed IVMP (PMP) and maps of the proposed treatment areas may be examined in detail online http://www.kindermorgan.com/content/docs/kmc_row_ivmp.pdf or by contacting the Applicant listed above.“A person(s) wishing to contribute information about a proposed treatment site, relevant to the development of the pest management plan, may send copies of the information to the applicant within 30 days of the publication of this notice”
