CUTS GET APPROVED:School trustees lament need for further reductions, 3NATIONALS OR BUST: Junior ‘A’ lacrosse team is poised for historic season, 32

JESSICA KERRjkerr@delta-opt imist .com

The accused in a fatal 2013stabbing at the Tsawwassen FirstNation has been found not crim-inally responsible for his actions.

At a hearing in B.C. SupremeCourt in NewWestminster

Tuesday, the man, who was17 at the time of the incidentand cannot be identified underthe Youth Criminal Justice Act,admitted to the attack that leftone teen dead and anothercritically injured. However, thecourt ruled he could not be heldcriminally responsible due to a

mental disorder.Police were called to a resi-

dence on Tsawwassen Drive ataround 10 p.m. on Feb. 15, 2013.Upon arrival, officers discoveredtwo teenaged girls sufferingfrom stab wounds lying on theground.

Both were treated at the scene

before being airlifted to hospital.The 16-year-old victim suc-cumbed to her injuries while the15-year-old survived.

The suspect was taken intocustody later the next morning.

The accused and the victimswere known to each other.

Before the ruling, the lead

prosecutor told the court theCrown agreed that a finding ofnot criminally responsible dueto a mental disorder is correct inthe case.

The defense called only onewitness in the hearing, a forensicpsychiatrist.STABBING: see Page 3

Agreeing it was atough thing to do, theDelta board of educationTuesday approved anotherseries of budget cuts.

To help make up a $3.38million shortfall, the boardapproved, among otheritems, reductions in spe-cial education assistants,reducing the allocation ofteaching staff and elimi-nating secondary librarytechnicians.

Chairperson LauraDixon went over trustees’efforts for increased fund-ing to cover costs, not-ing the district’s budgetcommittee had to workthrough some difficultdecisions.

Saying the underfund-ing and hidden down-loaded costs have left himdespondent, trustee NickKanakos told the boardDelta continues to be oneof the most progressivedistricts in the provincedespite the challenge.

“The district did notreceive any real significantincrease from the provin-cial government this year.This budget is a reflectionof the chronic underfund-ing that’s occurred,” hesaid.

“The budget committee

had a very difficult processto work through. They arelooking at a system that’salready suffering fromfinancial strain and we’retrying to minimize thecuts as best we can. Thesedecisions are not arrivedat without intense con-sultation and considera-tion. My commitment as atrustee has been to alwayskeep these cuts out of theclassroom. It’s getting tothe point where we cannotdo that,” Kanakos added.

Noting the situation

would be much worsewithout revenues fromthe International StudentProgram and Delta’s acad-emies, Fabian Milat saiddespite those successes,the district is also chal-lenged to deal with somefailures when it comes toat-risks students.

“I think as a trustee Ihave failed these kids overthe years and I think it’sdisheartening because Iknow we have budget cutsand yet we cannot helpsome of these kids out

there. I want us to focusmore on the academicresults for all kids, but inparticular the kids thatare the most at risk,” Milatsaid.

Rhiannon Bennett saidthe cuts they’re forced tomake will impact people’slives.

Val Windsor talkedabout howmuch theboard has had to cut in thepast few years, but notedDelta kids still receive avery good education.

Bruce Reid agreed, add-

ing education fundingshould be a priority in nextyear’s provincial electioncampaign.

Delta Teachers’Association president PaulSteer told the Optimistfollowing Tuesday’s meet-ing he wasn’t clear on theanswer he was given dur-ing the question periodon exactly who is on thedistrict’s budget commit-tee and how it functions,saying there appears to bea lack of public oversightand scrutiny.

During budget discussion Tuesday, trustee Dale Saip (left) took exception to Delta Teachers’ Association pres-ident Paul Steer’s comment last week that the board places a priority on dollars over human values.

CONTINUED from Page 1She is an expert on the

mental state of individualsat the time a crime is com-mitted and interviewedthe accused on five occa-sions last fall, concludingthe stabbing was a resultof paranoid delusions, asymptom of his schizo-phrenia.

She said the mentalillness also affects hisability to assess moral-ity. The psychiatrist saidhe doesn’t understandmoral issues in the sameway other people do andhe didn’t see the attackas something that is mor-ally wrong. She said thatis consistent with schizo-

phrenia.The doctor that testified,

and both the Crown andthe defense agreed, theaccused should be hospi-talized for treatment.

“I just think it’s time toget on with some treat-ment,” the judge said inhanding down the ruling.

The case has now been

referred to the B.C. ReviewBoard, which has theauthority to make deci-sions and orders concern-ing people who have beenfound to be not criminallyresponsible for acts com-mitted while they weresuffering from amentaldisorder, or whose mentaldisorder makes them unfit

to stand trial.The review board must

hold a hearing and make adisposition within 45 daysof the verdict.

There are three possibleoutcomes — an absolutedischarge, a dischargewith conditions or cus-tody where the accused isdetained in a hospital.

The Delta Museum willfinally get a new home, butthe way it’s run will alsochange.

Members of the DeltaMuseum and ArchivesSociety gathered for a spe-cial meeting Wednesdayevening to vote onwhether they shouldsign a memorandum ofunderstanding with theCorporation of Delta thatwould see the municipal-ity assume day-to-daycontrol of the museum.They voted in favour of theproposal.

Last month societychair Barbara Baydalaconfirmed Delta hadproposed to the museumboard that a new facilitybe located on the first floorof the former courthousebuilding in Ladner’s civicprecinct, adjacent to theDelta Archives and EdgarDunning Reading Room.

However, one of theterms is the municipal-ity take over day-to-dayoperations of the museumand archives. It essentiallymeans taking control fromthe society.

The museum, whichhad been housed inthe century-old formermunicipal hall buildingin Ladner Village, is nowpermanently closed andvolunteers are preparingto move the artifacts totemporary storage provid-ed by Delta. Once vacatedthis summer, Delta plansto undertake major reno-vations to that building toconvert it for other publicuses.

Never interested ingoing back, the societyhad long requested a new,more modern facility. TheDelta Historical Societymoved into the formermunicipal hall in 1969.

Board member TeresaCooper at Wednesday’smeeting told the approxi-mately two dozen inattendance, includingcurrent and former boardmembers, museum staffand representatives fromthe Corporation of Delta,the historic but inade-quate Delta Street buildingwas never meant to be apermanent home.

Noting the conditionof the current buildingis dire, and that fundingwas a challenge, she saidthe museum society has agreat opportunity to workwith Delta.

Baydala described someof the benefits, includingbeing able to host interac-tive exhibits and eventsat the 8,500-square-foot

facility.She added the soci-

ety would continue to beinvolved as well as havea representative from theboard become a memberof Delta’s parks, recreationand culture commission.

Delta CAO GeorgeHarvie said the arrange-ment will give the societyresources and more flexi-bility, including being ableto host exhibits at munici-pal facilities throughoutDelta.

The agreement stipu-lates the society willremain the owner of thecollection and that thesociety’s constitution andbylaws would not have tochange.

The unionized staff willbecome employees ofDelta. Delta will fund theneeded renovations.

The newmuseum is toopen next year. Outreachexhibits and presentationshave been put on holduntil after the move.

Birds are getting somehuman help when itcomes to finding a placeto nest at Kings Links GolfCourse.

There are 50 tree swal-low nest boxes set up ofthe East Ladner course aspart of a Delta NaturalistsSociety program. The mostrecent ones were installedlast week.

“They’re here. Thisis their habitat,” saysDelta Naturalists Societypresident Tom Bearss. “Sowhy not build houses forthem?”

Boxes were first

installed there in 2012,Bearss says, noting eachyear boxes are built, fixedand sometimes moved.

He says tree swallowsare cavity nesters and usu-ally nest in holes in trees.A “kiosk” designed forbarn swallows is also setup at the course.

Kings Links superin-tendent Mike Kiener sayshaving bird boxes at thecourse is “phenomenal”and that it’s “great forhelping with mosquitocontrol.”

Although not a DeltaNaturalists member, localwoodworker and long-time birder Pete Blairbuilds the boxes and

repairs them. He says thecourse is always support-ive of the program.

Blair says he usually vis-its the boxes at the courseand some set up at TsatsuShores at least twice a year.

“We’d like a more infor-mation, a little more datato help us decide howsuccessful the program isin terms of breeding andgetting young to fledge,”he says.

“But it’s just very dif-ficult to monitor that manyboxes as frequently aswould be needed to dothat.”

He says about 80 percent of the boxes at thecourse were in use last

year.“As far as I’m con-

cerned, if they get treeswallows there, I’mhappy.”

Kings Links is also hometo boxes designed for barnowls and bats.

There are approximately100 boxes overall installedaround Delta, includingsome at Boundary BayRegional Park, as part ofthe program.

The Delta NaturalistsSociety’s aims are to fosterinterest in the natural his-tory of the Fraser delta, toshare and enjoy nature,and to promote environ-mental awareness andconservation.

Family, friends and thecommunity are rallyingaround a local family fac-ing a devastating diagno-sis.

The family’s ordealbegan more than twomonths ago with what firstappeared to be a run-of-the-mill back injury.

Ladner’s Jeremy Frantawas at work when he felt apop and then a twinge inhis back. Franta, an inde-pendent contractor, wentto sit in his truck for about15 minutes before return-ing to work. As he beganworking again, he took astep up and the muscles inhis back began to spasmand he fell, unable to getup.

Franta was rushed DeltaHospital where he spentthe next six weeks in bedunable to walk.

“The muscle spasmswouldn’t go away,” saidwife Shjannon Franta.Franta was then trans-

ferred to Royal ColumbianHospital where he wasdiagnosed with multiplemyeloma, an incurable

blood cancer.Initially he wasgiven three tofive years tolive.

The diseaseis treatableand Frantarecently start-ed chemo-therapy afterundergoingback surgeryto repair threebroken verte-brae.

The sur-gery helped,Shjannon said, adding themuscle spasms are almostcompletely gone and hewas able to sit up, stand upand take a few steps for thefirst time in two months.

“We’re thrilled,” shesaid.

As an independent con-tractor, Franta has beenunable to earn an incomesince being rushed to thehospital two months ago.An online fundraiser hasbeen set up to help thefamily with some expensesas Franta undergoes treat-ment and regains hismobility.

So far, more than $7,500

has been raised.To make a donation

Now that the property taxrate has been set by civicpoliticians, your bill, theone that will once againexceed the rate of infla-

tion, will soon arrive in the mail.At 3.5 per cent, or $75 for the aver-

age home, the increase imposed bymunicipal hall doesn’t jump out at youor prompt widespread unrest amongratepayers, but with Delta’s property taxrate routinely outstripping the rate ofinflation, homeowners continue to fallbehind, bit by bit, every year. This yearis no exception as 3.5 per cent is aboutdouble the inflation rate for 2015.

Delta has broken down the reasonsin an effort to rationalize the higher bill,although I’m not sure that does a lot tomake it any more palatable, at least notfor me.

The biggest driver of this year’s prop-erty tax increase is a 1.5 per cent hikethat goes toward construction of a firehall at Boundary Bay Airport. Ratherthan borrow, build and pay back overtime, spreading out the cost of the pro-ject and lessening the annual burdenon taxpayers, Delta’s no new debt pol-icy means we’ll pay for it up front. Thegood news is we won’t have any debt;the bad news is we’ll just pay highertaxes in the meantime.

This year’s bill will also include ahalf-point increase for additional polic-ing, a component of Delta’s budgetthat has risen at a greater rate than anyother over the last decade, to the pointwhere we spend almost as much onpolicing as Richmond does, yet we’vegot less than half the population.

And we need to spend even more?It’s hard to believe we do, but thenagain, some projects and departmentsjust seem to earn favour from decisionmakers.

In addition to one per cent more tomaintain civic services, the final half-point of this year’s tax hike goes towardreplacing artificial turf fields as needed.I remember talk of a plan, way backwhen such fields were a novelty, thatwould have put aside something everyyear so when the surface had to bereplaced, there would be money in thekitty to do so.

That obviously didn’t happen or wewouldn’t be hit up this year, althoughthere’s no denying some of the olderturf fields, particularly the one atMackie Park in North Delta, needreplacing after years of constant wearand tear.

Taxingourpatience

I’ve had the pleasure ofinterviewing several Deltacouncillors who madethemselves a subject of oneof my columns. I appreci-

ate their trust as a subject of printmedia has little control over thefinal copy. Anyone familiar withthat circumstance knows of whichI speak.

I probably enjoyed the oppor-tunity and hours spent more thancouncillors Sylvia Bishop, JeannieKanakos, Ian Paton and nowHeather King.

I have met many municipalpoliticians locally and acrossCanada and can truthfully saythey desire a best result for theircommunity regardless of politicalaffiliation. There is little evidenceof political dogma as a public offi-cial representing a taxing author-ity, councillor’s primary stew-ardship is the delivery of qualityservice at a reasonable cost.

I recently met with King who,in a relatively short time, hashad quite an impact on Delta’scommunity affairs. Born andraised in Burlington, Ontario, shearrived in B.C. as an employeeof Canadian Airlines trainingdepartment.

In 1992 Heather marriedTsawwassen resident Dean Kingand they are now a family of five.Long retired from a 15-year careerwith Canadian Airlines, King tookan active interest in her children’s

schooling. In 2001, she was elect-ed PAC chair at Boundary BeachElementary and became involvedin fundraising, school liasion andspecial needs education.

Raised by parents active incommunity life in Burlington,King decided to run for a seat onDelta’s school board in 2002. Herfather, Ted MacDonald, served asa city councillor for 12 years withan active interest in federal andprovincial politics in addition tohis profession as a teacher andhigh school principal. Her rolemodels have long been her fatherand Preston Manning.

King was elected to the schoolboard for a three-year term.Personable and energetic, sheenthusiastically discussed herrole as school trustee and was re-elected in 2005. She was electedby fellow trustees to chair of theboard of education.

King was an advocate for one-on-one special needs educationand authored a program on earlyreading education. Also high onher list of accomplishments wasthe introduction of an anti-bully-ing program, Roots of Empathy,which remain part of Delta’sschool curriculum.

Looking for more challenges,King ran for a seat on Delta coun-cil in 2008. To the surprise ofsome, she topped the polls andbested four incumbents. Armedwith success in three municipalelections, she was encouragedby supporters to challenge forthe mayor’s chair in 2011. Bestedby the long-serving and popularincumbent, Lois Jackson, Kingfound herself out of public office.

This time was put to good usein furthering her education atSFU as she remained active inthe community. She became atrustee of the Delta Museum andArchives, a director of the DeltaHospice Society and a member ofthe Ladner Business Associationand its executive committee.

King was re-elected to Deltacouncil in 2014.

A populist at heart and enjoy-ing the return to public office,King is mulling over future politi-cal and private opportunities.

And a good night to you, Dean.A fourth generation Ladnerite,

Doug Husband is a former mayorof Delta.

Editor:It has recently been

brought to my attentionthat Metro VancouverParks has extendedthe opening hours ofCentennial Beach well intothe night.

Starting May 31 andgoing until Sept. 5, thepark will be open until10 p.m. This means bySeptember people will beon the beach and in theparking lots for nearly twohours after dark.

As a neighbour to thepark, I am dismayed by

this change in policy andby the lack of consulta-tion that has taken place.The park hours have beencreeping later and laterover the last few years butthis latest change is notacceptable from a numberof viewpoints.

Firstly, the local resi-dents who have kids inschool and jobs to go towill now have to contendwith trying to sleep withthe extended noise andcommotion from thenightly beach crowd. Whodoes Metro think will

be staying late? It’s notgoing to be the small fam-ily groups with toddlersin tow, it’ll be the largegroups of teenagers and20-somethings.

Secondly, in an unlitenvironment next to thewater it is highly probablepeople will go for a nightswim. How likely is it, ifthey got into trouble in thewater, that no one wouldeven notice they neededhelp, let alone jump into help them? HopefullyMetro has thought aboutthe liability it will have in

such a scenario.And lastly, attracting a

large number of people,many from outside thelocal area, to visit a resi-dential area after dark isinviting crime. Propertycrime and vandalism willundoubtedly increase asthe word gets out that withthe cover of darkness thereare easy pickings to be hadin Boundary Bay.

Please keep the parkclosed at night as it hasalways been and alwaysshould be.

Editor:South Delta is notori-

ously underserved bypublic transit. Reachinga destination can meandealing with infrequentservice, multiple transfersand inconvenient routeoptions. These factorskeep transit from beinga viable option for mostresidents.

For the time being, how-ever, there is an opportu-nity to voice your concernswith the current state of

affairs. TransLink is ask-ing residents of SouthDelta, Tsawwassen andRichmond to outline theirpriorities for transporta-tion in the region.

I encourage everyoneto share their thoughtsat www.translink.ca/SWATP. The survey is openuntil May 6, and will helpTransLink identify pri-orities for future planning.Paper surveys and collec-tion boxes are located atLadner Pioneer Library,

Tsawwassen Library andTsawwassen First Nationoffice.

We know that a lack oftransit options can be par-ticularly hard for seniors,and I was pleased to hearDelta council announcefunding for a new seniorsbus out of McKee Seniors’Recreation Centre.

I would also like toacknowledge the DeltaYouth Legislative AdvisoryCouncil for their efforts toimprove transit for seniors

in our community. Thisgroup has dedicated manyhours of their free timemeeting with Delta seniorsand reporting to officialson gaps in our transit net-work.

I am hopeful that tran-sit in Delta will improveand I encourage everyoneto provide input to helpshape TransLink’s regionalplan.

Editor:Re: 601 route changing

to include stop at malls,April 20

Whenmy father servedin the Royal CanadianNavy in the SecondWorldWar, the one generalobservation he made was:“When you have idiotsin charge, do not be sur-prised at the results.”

TransLink’s routechanges for the 601, 609

and the 620 just typifiesthe observation; the idiotsare indeed in charge andwhy am I not surprised.

Forget about the 609,because no one uses itand the service shouldbe abandoned, but notTransLink, which squan-ders money trying to flog adead horse.

Changing the 601,Tsawwassen’s main non-rush hour connection

to Vancouver, has madetravel time even longer bynow diverting the route toservice the newmalls. Allthis will do is further detera dwindling ridership onthe service as taking thecar will just be easier and alot more convenient.

Changes to the 620 iseven more puzzling, as itbasically has three stops,Bridgeport, Ladner Loopand the Tsawwassen Ferry

Terminal. Reducing eventhe very few local stopswill again deter peoplefrom taking the bus, asagain taking the car will beeasier and more conveni-ent.

If anyone at TransLinkcares or even has read abook on the subject, the2000 Hass Klau interna-tional study, Bus or LightRail, making the RightChoice, summed up what

was important to operate asuccessful transit service:“that a transit service mustbe convenient for the cus-tomer to use and be userfriendly,” something thepresent services do notoffer nor will offer afterthese politically inspiredchanges.

In the 21st century,public transit is seen asa product and if the cus-tomer likes the product,

they will use it, but if thecustomer does not like theproduct, the customer willnot and I see nothing herethat will enhance the pub-lic’s liking of TransLinkand its mediocre bus ser-vice.

Maybe it is time to getrid of TransLink alto-gether, as last year’s transitplebiscite showed it hasvery little public support.

Editor:Having read both Greg

McDonald and Ellen andRichard Beck’s opinionson power washing, Imust say my two cents.

First of all, power wash-ing is a lengthy job. Iknow this because I havedone it countless times,and, yes, it is loud anddisruptive to neighbours.That said, I can’t imag-ine why someone wouldchose to have the annoy-ance limited to a couplehours a day and drag itout for three or four days,or longer depending onthe size of the property.

Secondly, what powerwashing company isgoing to repeatedly returnto a job site over thecourse of several daysinstead of getting the jobdone in one day? That isso ridiculous.

A lot of the powerwashing going on isresidents hiring localcompanies to do it (gen-erally only once a year). Ifsomeone’s business wasmainly power washing,how are they supposedto run their company effi-ciently, on schedule andmake any money?

As far as restricting the

horsepower, all that willdo is prolong every job. Assomeone who is a part ofa company that includespower washing, I thinkthe opposing argument isnaïve and bordering onselfish.

I’m happy that Sundayis a power washing freezone, so I can enjoy somepeace and quiet. Summercomes with loud machin-ery, screaming childrenand the never failing wailof the ice cream truckcruising the streets at din-ner time. Welcome to lifein the suburbs.

Editor:Re: Loss of Bayside Clubis a travesty, letter to the

editor, April 13Thanks to Louise

Latremouille for sum-marizing what happenedto the Bayside SquashClub. Did I not get thememo that our electedand taxpayer-paid politi-cians, at any level, are nownot accountable to us, thefolks who pay their sala-ries, expenses and pen-sions?

When over 1,000 SouthDeltans petitioned to keepthe Bayside Squash Clubproperty zoned recreation-al, and 40 opposed, does

that not give a clear signalto Delta council that a vastmajority did not want thezoning changed?

Alas, Mayor Lois Jacksonand councillors HeatherKing, Ian Paton, RobertCampbell and BruceMcDonald decided thepublic be damned, whilecouncillors Sylvia Bishopand Jeannie Kanakospicked up the vibe thatfolks want Bayside left asis.

Bayside provided rec-reation to hundreds ofDeltans for decades, yetnow we look forward to anoceanside monster homeor two. Can someone tell

me what benefit SouthDelta will receive fromthese homes, other thansome extra property tax?

Bayside had a purpose.What purpose does thisnew development serve,other than to enrich adeveloper and futurehome owner(s)?

Thanks for nothingmayor and councillorswho voted to rezone, andtried to mislead us intothinking Bayside wantedDelta to buy the prop-erty. Thanks Bishop andKanakos for at least recog-nizing the importance ofBayside.

Ladner-based Heli-One recently secured an$8-million contract torefurbish two helicoptersfor Malaysian royalty.

The company willdesign, certify and installa new glass cockpit on twoSikorsky S-76 B helicoptersowned by the Sultan ofJohor. The contract wasarranged during a recentthree-day visit by HisMajesty, Sultan IbrahimIbni Almarhum SultanIskandar.

Once complete, theaircraft will feature thelatest in navigation andsafety features to matchthe capabilities of newhelicopters. Heli-One willalso install a VIP interior,paint the aircraft with acustom livery and performall maintenance tasks dueon the helicopters, as wellas provide flight crew andmaintenance training forthe new equipment.

“Heli-One is uniquelypositioned to support thishigh value and high tech-nology work due to thebreadth and depth of our

experience, our advancedengineering and designexpertise and our proxim-ity to important growingmarkets, like Malaysia,”said Guy Borowski, vice-president of operations atHeli-One, which is locatedon 80th Street adjacent toBoundary Bay Airport.

This is the secondrecent contract Heli-Onehas signed with Malaysia.Just last week, the com-pany announced anagreement to upgrade theSikorsky S-16 helicopterfleet for the Royal MalaysiaAir Force in partnershipwith AIROD, the country’sleading aviation mainte-nance, repair and overhaulcentre.

The show has all thehumour of the animatedfilm (which featuredvoice acting fromMikeMyers, Eddie Murphy andCameron Diaz) with a fewfun twists and turns andsome fantastic music fromJeanie Tesori, says Harbott.

There have been lotsof great challenges onthe technical side of theproduction that are funfor the students to figureout, such as making sun-sets and sunrises on stagebelievable.

“It’s been great to seethe kids really be creative

and find solutions to prob-lems, work together andcreate a family at school,”she says, noting it’s astrong-bonded cast, crewand orchestra.

There are over 100students from grades 8through 12 working on the

project, she notes.Grade 12 student John

Schofield is the stage man-ager for the musical. Hecontrols almost all of thetechnical aspects of theshow.

“It’s really cool seeinghow all the parts of the

show come together,” hesays.

Lockwood, a saxophoneplayer, says the audiencecan expect to hear somemainstream, straightahead jazz, including a fewof his original tunes, at theshow.

Lockwood, who came toVancouver from Londonjust over four years ago,describes the musicians inhis quartet as some of thecity’s, if not the country’s,finest players.

“We all do lots of differ-ent things in various com-binations and in differentgroups. We’re all freelancemusicians,” he says.

The quartet includesSharon Minemoto (piano)Graham Clark (bass) andJoe Poole (drums).

Asked about develop-ing a comfortability overtime with the musicians,Lockwood says you obvi-ously get to know every-one’s styles the more youplay together.

“You just get familiarwith each other. It’s alwaysmore comfortable playingwith friends than peopleyou haven’t necessarilymet before. But to be fair,those three are so goodthey just make my job

easy.”Lockwood, who’s per-

formed at venues like theBarbican, Royal FestivalHall and the Royal AlbertHall in London, is hop-ing to get into the studiothis summer to record analbum.

Bellyup fora tasteofBavaria inLeavenworthLAUREN KRAMEROptimist contr ibutor

If you love yourstomach, drive it toLeavenworth anddon’t stop until youreach the Kingfisher

Restaurant at SleepingLady Resort.

We’d come for a taste ofLittle Bavaria, fascinatedby the story of the LittleTown That Could.

Back in the late 1950s,after its logging industryslowed down consider-ably, Leavenworth wasfacing near extinction. Itsfuture as one of America’smany ghost towns lookedinevitable until the 1960swhen community leadersinitiated a plan of action:Leavenworth would bereinvented as a Bavarianhamlet that would attracttourists as much for itscraggy mountains andsparkling Wenatchee Riverrapids as for its cutesytheme.

Enacting the ambitiousBavarian idea involvedrenovating the downtownbuildings so their archi-tecture mimicked old-world Germany, creating aseries of Bavarian themed

festivals and persuadingretailers to refocus theirbusiness on tourism with adistinctly Bavarian theme.

Some 50 years later, aswe strolled around thedowntown core on a hotsummer evening, thattheme was ubiquitous.Every store from Subwayto Starbucks featured simi-lar Bavarian design, whilerestaurants offered schnit-zel, bratwurst, sauerkrautand thick, buttery pretzels.

As it happened, wecouldn’t be tempted evenremotely. Earlier that daywe’d checked into theSleeping Lady Resort, justa few minutes away onIcicle Road, and that even-ing had tasted the culinarygenius of its chef, JoshuaHolmes, at the KingfisherRestaurant.

The buffet meal he pre-pared forever redefinedbuffet dining in my mind,with amazing gourmetinventions like fiddle-head fern salad, melt-in-your-mouth halibut withpeach-basil vinaigretteand roasted tofu steak withsoba noodles.

Sleeping Lady is a spe-cial place, its family-stylecabins set in a grove of tall

trees and each one feel-ing like a self-contained,private home-away-from-home. The resort was fullybooked but thanks to itsample acreage and smartlayout of accommodation,we felt like we had theplace to ourselves.

My son and I checked infor a whitewater adventureon the Wenatchee Riverwith Osprey Rafting thenext day. By July the white-water has lost much of itsferocity but nevertheless, itwas a fun day on the riverduring which we repeat-edly plunged in when thewater turned calm andwere hauled back insidethe boat as we approachedthe rapids.

Around us granitemountain slopes soaredinto the sky, swallowsdipped in and out of thewater and a couple ofospreys watched us fromtheir nests.

Later that day weambled lazily arounddowntown Leavenworth,tasting pretzels and pok-ing our heads into thegift shops. We stoppedat Munchen Haus for aBavarian sausage and acold beer courtesy of Icicle

Brewing Company, lovingthe genial atmosphere ofthis outdoor eatery.

Then we headed to theSki Hill Amphitheatre fora performance of Into theWoods by Leavenworth’sSummer Theatre. Thevenue was spectacular: thestage and seating area sur-rounded by tall pine treesand the sun casting a finalray of sunshine on the dis-

tant mountains.The voices of

Leavenworth’s talentedyouth filled the air, youngpeople who had grown upin this Little Bavaria andnever knew their town inthe days before, when itsfuture had once looked soterribly bleak.

No one cares that inthis Bavaria there’s nota single German accent.

The theme alone, and thetown’s wholehearted com-mitment to it is enough toentice folks here from farand wide, enchant themwith Leavenworth’s natu-ral beauty and send themhome with sausage in theirbellies and memories of agreat weekend away.Travel Writers’ Tales is

Threeeasylifehacksforgettinghealthy

Idon’t know of a singlesoul who has notwished for a pill thatthey could take for

better fitness.It would be so much

easier, wouldn’t it?Easier than all that time,

that commitment andsweat you have to depositfor a better-looking bodythat will stayabove groundfor the long-est period oftime.

However,we don’thave that…yet.

Currentlythere are nosecrets, nopills and nomagic for-mulas (nomatter whatDr. Oz says)that will getus healthy.

What I canshare withyou, though,are some lifehacks youcan add toyour day that will improveyour health, your fitnessand your waistline.

Have protein for break-fast, specifically over 30grams. A study by theBiofortis Clinical Researchteam at the University ofMissouri showed proteinin the morning can helpyou consume fewer calo-ries throughout the day, aswell as burn more fat over

time.The likely reason is due

to an improved glycemiccontrol protein has on thebody. In other words, yourblood sugar levels will bemore stable, which in turnwill lead to the desire toeat less. And we all knowwhat eating less means? Aslimmer and trimmer you.

Some examples of ahigh-protein breakfastare: one egg plus one cupof egg whites (33 grams)scrambled with veggies.Or an egg, black bean andcheese burrito. You couldalso serve yourself three-quarters of a cup of plainGreek yogurt and mix in10 grams of protein pow-der to both up the proteincount as well as changethe flavour (I love straw-berry protein powder inmy plain yogurt).

Ditch thecar. While fit-ness is impor-tant for betterhealth, youcannot ignorethe other 23hours of theday. In fact,science isshowing usthat what wedo through-out the daywill dictateboth ourhealth andour waist-lines.

Theseincremen-tal move-ments we dothroughoutthe day are

called non-exercise activ-ity thermogenesis (NEAT).This is the energy (calo-ries) the body expendsfor everything we do thatis not sleeping, eating orsports-like exercise.

The more NEAT wehave in our lives, the betteroff our body weight is, aswell as our blood pressure,blood sugar levels andstress levels.

Control these and wealso ward off a host of dis-eases.

Some examples of add-ing NEAT into your lifeare: walking wheneveryou can, always using thestairs, parking your car inthe farthest stall away fromyour destination, stretch-ing while watching TV, andperforming a little yogabefore bed and as soon asyou get up in the morning.

However, my biggesttip for you is to make ita point to never go fromthe dinner table to the liv-ing room couch. Spend atleast 30 minutes, followingdinner, on your feet andmoving around.

Get some sleep. Thescience on sleep and itsimportance to our healthis abundant. The conse-quences of lack of shuteye range from higherdisease risk, lower mortal-ity, increased waistlines,lowered immune system,depression, memory prob-lems and even accidentaldeath.

Sleep is just as impor-tant to our bodies as theair we breathe and thefood we eat. You see, it’sduring sleep that our bodyis tending to our physicaland mental health andgetting us ready for anoth-er day.

Some sleep hacks thatyou can add into your lifefor better quality shut eye:turn off all electronics atleast one hour before bedand maintain the sametime you go to bed and getup all week. It’s also rec-ommended to keep yourbedroom clutter-free, darkand on the cooler side. Ihave also found medita-tion and yoga before bedgreat to help calm themind and central nervoussystem.PJ Wren is a local per-

sonal trainer who has beenkicking people’s butts forover 20 years. She can befound at www.fitnesswith-pj.com.

Well onYour WayP.J.WREN

Simple tips anyone can incorporate into daily life

Sleep is justas importantto our bodiesas the airwebreathe and thefoodwe eat. Yousee, it’s duringsleep that ourbody is tendingto our physicalandmentalhealth andgetting us readyfor another day.

I have been compilingpastors’ favourite memo-ries from their years in theministry for a booklet tohelp celebrate their anni-versaries of ordination atan upcoming banquet.

In reflecting on theirministry the pastors wereasked to give some wordsof encouragement for newpastors. I was impressedwith the many sterlingwords they shared but onepiece of advice stood outfrom the rest. In relationto the people they serve,one pastor counselled hisyounger colleagues to “...interpret everything thatthe people do and say inthe best possible light.”

It seems to me this isgood advice not only forpastors but for all of us.I thought of how oftenI do the opposite andcast someone’s words oractions in a negative light,

only later to learn howwrong I was.

I wonder howmanymisunderstandings I couldhave avoided if rather thanassuming the worst, I hadassumed the best behindmy friend’s or neighbour’swords or actions.

All of the world’s greatreligions teach neighbourlove. In the Christian tradi-

tion love of neighbour isthe second greatest com-mandment coming rightafter love of God. Indeed,the Christian traditionteaches that loving God isnot possible without lov-ing our neighbour.

“Love your neighbour”is easy to say, but I oftenwonder how does it trans-late when we are face-to-face with our neighbour?Fred Rogers, the children’sTV personality, offers ussome help. He believedwe practice neighbourlove whenever we look forwhat’s best in a person:

“…appreciation is a holything — when we look forwhat’s best in a personwe happen be with at themoment, we’re doing whatGod does all the time. Soin loving and appreciat-ing our neighbour, we’reparticipating in somethingsacred.”

Reach Child and YouthDevelopment Societyheld its fourth annual galalast Saturday night andthe Passion for Potentialtheme was validated bythe crowd in a big way.

The evening raised$110,000, $10,000 morethan in 2015, to benefitthe Building for ChildrenTogether capital campaignthat’s poised to construct achild development centrein the heart of Ladner.

“Our boards and staffare humbled and deeplytouched by the circle ofsupport that has surround-ed this project and thefamilies that we support,”said Reach Society presi-dent Donna Burke.

Native North Deltanand Global BC TV newsanchor Steve Darlingreturned as MC at thegala and entertained thecrowds throughout thenight with his wit andcharm. Century Groupand Vancouver Fraser PortAuthority were presentingsponsors while CanadianAutoparts Toyota spon-sored Reach for the Starsat the platinum level.

High points of the even-ing included the live auc-tion with Delta’s own pro-fessional auctioneer, civiccouncillor Ian Paton. Anamazing $7,000 was raisedwhen a hand-carvedCoast Salish paddle byTsawwassen First NationChief Bryce Williamsfetched $3,500 and thenWilliams agreed to carveanother paddle for a sec-ond bidder.

Local parents Somi andChris Benning shared thestory of their son’s journeywith Reach’s early inter-vention programs in atouching video filmed byDelta Cable. Young vocal-ist Jada McKenzie-Mooreand speaker and Reachautism program alum-nus Trinity Silva receivedstanding ovations.

Mayor Lois Jacksonspoke at the event andreferenced Reach’s newlyopened Play and LearnCentre in the North DeltaRecreation Centre as wellas the development centreto be built in the heart ofLadner.

“Reach is formallypart of the social fabric,”Jackson said. “Reach hasempowered families withguidance and informa-tion.”

The evening’s 50/50winnings were donatedback to the ReachFoundation and thenmembers of the Ladner-Tsawwassen Kinsmenvolunteering at the galamatched the total amountraised.

At the end of the even-ing, Reach Foundationacting chair Denis Horganoffered a big thank you tothe many volunteers whomade the event possible,the businesses and indi-viduals who donated andthe guests who attended.

He encouraged partici-pants to continue to helpReach raise the remaining$1 million needed to com-plete construction of thechild development centre.

MARK BOOTHmbooth@delta-opt imist .com

It’s a season that has beenabout five years in the makingand the path in front of the DeltaIslanders has never been morefavourable.

A team loaded with top end vet-eran talent that will need to winjust one best-of-five playoff seriesto advance to the Minto Cupnational junior “A” championshipsfor the first time in franchise his-tory.

The Islanders begin theirpotential breakthrough journeyon Saturday when they open B.C.Junior “A” Lacrosse League regularseason play in Victoria.

A year ago, Delta reached theleague finals only to be bouncedin straight games by seven-timedefending champion Coquitlam.Essentially, the entire rosterreturns and both BCJALL finalistswill advance to the Minto thanksto tournament taking place inLangley this season.

“It’s still going to be hardenough with the pressure that willbe on us,” warned head coach andassistant GM Greg Rennie. “Wewill not be a surprise and peopleknow we have been building for

this. We did luck out that (thenationals) are not out of provincethis year. It couldn’t have playedout better for us. Now we have toplay through it.”

Rennie began shaping the ros-ter for the 2016 campaign beforehe even returned to Delta fromthe Richmond RoadrunnersIntermediate program. Heendorsed a deal that saw star EliMcLaughlin dealt at the leaguedeadline for prospects, thentraded him again a year later. Atthe same time, young talents EvanMessenger, Cody Nass and JonPhillips all were aged up to geta jump on their junior careers.Richmond standouts BradHofmann, Spencer Bromley andgoalie Ryland Hood all arrived inDelta with Rennie. He also swungdeals to bring in Langley’s ChaseFraser and Reece Callies.

It all adds up to a boat loadof elite players looking to endtheir junior careers in style. EvenRennie is saying he will movestrictly into a GM role next season

and hand the reigns to currentIslanders intermediate coach KyleGoundrey.

“It’s been like building a puzzleputting all the pieces together (forthis season),” admitted Rennie.“For a number of guys, this beganfive or six years ago in Richmondwhen we lost the (provincial inter-mediate final) to Ridge Meadows.I believed in them and I definitelystill do now.”

The Islanders return sevenof their top eight scorers from ayear ago, including rising star TreLeclaire who bypassed intermedi-ate entirely and finished secondin league scoring, earning rookie-of-the-year honours. Messengerand Nass give Delta three playerscapable of winning the leaguescoring title.

At the back end, Hood wassuperb in last year’s playoffs whileHofmann and Callies provideplenty of experience and leader-ship in front him. Hofmann hasbeen named team captain for thesecond straight year with Callies

and Bromley serving as assistants.The team also has grit with

returnees Shawn Richardson andMitch Winter. Only two rookies —Riley Phillips and Riley Taylor —have been signed. The Islanderswill also be relying on junior ‘B’and intermediate call-ups throughthe early stretch of the season asPhillps, Callies, Fraser and JaydenCampbell eventually return fromU.S. collegiate field lacrosse.

Rennie says he has threeremaining roster spots that he willhold on to until midway throughthe season.

“We will strongly be emphasiz-ing on out-of-province talent,”he added, hinting a defenderfrom Alberta will likely be thefirst acquisition. “We have to aswe can’t forgo the future (of theteam). It’s a process of playing itout and seeing where the holesneed to be filled, probably sometime in June. We will be huge buy-ers. Everything has been saved forthis year and we will be going allin.”

South Delta Sun Devils battle Earl Marriott in Fraser Valley South girls socceraction. The Devils will be hosting next month’s provincial AAA championships.

Ramsloadupall-starteamThe B.C. Community

Football Association’sannual Bantam All-StarGame looked more like aSouth Delta Rams trainingsession.

A whopping 13 playersfrom the two-time defend-ing provincial Bantamchampions were selectedfor the game that featuredplayers, ages 14-and-15, from the VancouverMainland (VMFL) andFraser Valley (VCFL)leagues. The team withthe Rams’ contingent wasappropriately coached bySouth Delta’s own BrentCalvert.

After an opening seriesfield goal for the opponent,the players jelled to pro-duce a 33-3 win.

Calvert was mostimpressed with the offen-sive side play of Rams line-men Ethan Prasad, RileyVarhaug, Rahul Chandra,Riley Gookstetter andJarrod Bee— noting “itall starts up-front, and thisgroup showed their capa-bility to dominate in thepassing, as well as the run-ning game.”

Quarterback MichaelCalvert moved the team

through the air, connect-ing regularly with receiv-ers Billy Matwichyna andNick Klassen. He finishedthe day with four touch-down passes, includingone to slotback JarvisDashkewytch, and a pairfor slotback DouglasJameson.

Calvert added a rush-ing touchdown, along witha field goal block, andreceived the teamMVPaward, while Jamesonadded an interceptionand was recognized withthe Offensive Player of theGame award.

The backfield duo offullback Jello Juatco andrunning back Andrew Kraftexploited a defence focusedon defending the pass, with

major ground gains, whilecornerback /kicker NiallCummins also got in on thescoring action, chipping inall his convert attempts.

“The opportunity to benominated and to play inthe Bantam All-Star gameis an honour for SouthDelta players,” added coachCalvert. “The strong foot-ball talent developed withthe Rams, continues onwith the South Delta SunDevils high school pro-gram, and regularly show-cases the strong footballtalent produced here.”

Many of the graduatingBantam Rams players willplay their final games inRams horns at the upcom-ing Zone Bowl tournamenttaking place in July.
