Rebuilding downtown will take ‘imagination’Jennifer FeinbergThe Progress
Imagine Chilliwack’s downtown being brought back to life.
Walas Concepts reps have been actively meeting and talking to locals in the past month.
“We believe cities are about people, not buildings,” said Walas CEO Gerben van Straaten at the Chilliwack Chamber of Commerce lun-cheon at the Coast Chilliwack Hotel Thursday.
When some look at the down-town, all they see are boarded-up storefronts. But van Straaten sees more. He sees pure potential.
It’s early in the project, so they haven’t come up with any solutions for Chilliwack’s downtown quite yet, as “that would be an insult,” he explained.
But Walas has a proven track record of helping struggling cities and downtowns all over the world.
Their idea is to redevelop empty com-mercial spaces in Chilliwack by repurpos-ing them, and breathing life into them in creative ways.
“I really love the urban environment,” said van Straaten. “That’s where you find all of the problems and all of the solutions.”
The solutions are not found by thinking outside the box, but by throwing the box away entirely, he said.
The built environment becomes more sustainable, and mentors and partnerships are key elements in the Walas model.
Full school strike could begin TuesdayKatie BartelThe Progress
Chilliwack students learned Thursday morning that it would likely be their last day of school for the year.
The BC Teachers Federation has served 72-hour strike notice, setting the stage for a total walk-out next week.
BCTF president Jim Iker said escalated job action would begin with a study session Monday, fol-lowed by a full strike starting Tuesday, if necessary.
The Monday study sessions will see BCTF members meet off-site – schools won’t be picketed, but teachers won’t be there.
And because Friday is rotat-ing strike day for Chilliwack, that
means, Thursday could have very well been the last day of school.
“We hope escalation can actual-ly be avoided,” Iker said Thursday. “My message to Christy Clark is come to the table with new funding, an open mind and the flexibility needed to reach a fair settlement.”
A full strike would close ele-mentary and middle schools – parents will be advised to make child care arrangements if neces-sary – while secondary schools would be open only to conduct exams for Grade 10 to 12 stu-dents.
The Labour Relations Board made Grade 10 to 12 exams an essential service.
“That means students in grades 10 to 12 will be able to write their
exams as scheduled and Grade 12 students will receive their final marks in a timely manner,” said Education Minister Peter Fassbender.
Chilliwack parents are con-cerned.
On Wednesday morning, fol-lowing BCTF’s 86 per cent vote for a full-scale strike, several par-ents outside Bernard elementary were discussing their options.
“It’s going to be a tight squeeze for us,” said Shilo Orellana, who has two primary aged children at Bernard.
Orellana recently started a new job; she works for minimum wage. Paying for the additional child care time won’t be easy.
“Basically our daycare provider makes the same amount that I do,” she said.
Still, she supports teachers.“They have a very hard job and
I think they’re under appreciated,” she said.
Parent Michelle Horsley, who has a child in Grade 1 at Bernard and another in Grade 11 at Chilliwack secondary wishes information would be more forth-coming.
“The lack of information is so hard,” she said
Job action isn’t new for Horsley; she went through it in 2012 when her older son was in Grade 12.
“It seems like there’s less infor-mation this time,” she said. “I don’t know what’s going on. I don’t know what’s happening.”
Chilliwack school district has been fairly tight lipped about job action. Repeated questions by The Progress went unanswered this week, claiming the district was too busy to respond.

A Grade 12 student seek-ing clarity from her local MLA on the teacher-gov-ernment conflict says she’s more confused now than she was before.
Mikayla Adams-Pastoor, a Grade 12 student at Sardis secondary, made an appoint-ment with Chilliwack MLA John Martin last week. She wanted to know why her education was continuously being compromised with labour strife; why she can’t get help from teachers out-side of class time; why the government has money for smart meters and a state-of-the-art roof at B.C. Place Stadium, but not for her education.
“I thought I might be able to get clarification and answers to the questions I had,” she said on Tuesday prior to the teachers’ union issuing full-strike notice. (See story Page:)
After learning about local politics, specifically MLAs, in a recent social stud-ies class, Pastoor-Adams came up with the idea of approaching Martin about her concerns over the labour strife.
The meeting, which the high school student esti-mated to have lasted an hour, was set up a week in advance.
Pastoor-Adams took that time to research the issue, reviewing websites, study-ing statistics, getting clear on the issues she wanted to
better understand.She doesn’t, however,
believe Martin did the same.
“I spent a lot of time on the questions I had for him and I have no more under-standing of the situation now than I did before,” she said.
“I figured, since he repre-sents us, he would actually
have answers to give when people have questions.”
Pastoor-Adams ques-tions ranged from both well researched to somewhat tinged with teenage naiveté.
They included:There has been a drop of
about 21.3 per cent in spe-cialty teachers since 2001-02, what will I do when I need counseling in school,
or when a friend fails their classes because they can’t get learning assistance?
If teachers are paid bet-ter, students would have higher quality of teachers…
Why does the govern-ment think it’s okay to mess up our graduation?
Pastoor-Adams doesn’t consider herself political, she had just hoped her final
year in school wouldn’t have been clouded by labour strife.
“There’s a lot of tension between the government and teachers and it’s affect-ed my schooling,” she said.
MLA Martin was not available for comment in time for The Progress’s deadline.

The principal at Watson ele-mentary school was still thank-ing the advances of technology Wednesday morning.
When Taryn Dixon first learned of the shootout outside Science World Tuesday, her first thought was of her students.
Are they safe? With technology, she got the
answer almost immediately.“We were able to send text
messages back and forth with our teachers who were there and confirm everyone was safe,” said Dixon, who was also informed of the situation by the bus driver on site.
“In this case, I thank heavens for technology.”
Science World was put in lock-down late Tuesday morning as Vancouver police took down an alleged shooting suspect outside the facility.
T w o classes from Watson ele-mentary, a Grade 4/5 split and a Grade 5 class, were on field trip at the popu-lar educa-tion destina-tion.
“We really didn’t know what was happening,” said Dixon, who first heard of it from a concerned par-ent.
“In that very first moment, our
biggest concern was are the kids safe? What had they seen? What had they witnessed? Were they shaking in fear?”
They didn’t have time to dwell.
“All of a sudden our phone started ringing off the hook,” said Dixon. “We had to stay calm.”
A crisis action plan was put in place immediately. All parents were contacted informing them of
what had happened, and that the facility was in lockdown, and they didn’t know when students would be released. A message was posted to the school’s website, and a letter
was drawn up and sent home with students at the end of day. District t r a u m a counsellors were also brought on site for both parents and
students.“There was no time to panic,
and it would have served zero purpose to do so,” said Dixon. “We knew, of course, everybody would be worried, and what we really
wanted was for people to have the best, accurate information we had rather than some of the panicked information.”
Science World was locked down for about two hours. Students were escorted out by police at 1:45 p.m.. They were originally scheduled to leave the facility at 2 p.m.
When they arrived back at Watson, students, with their par-ents, were debriefed by counsel-lors.
A counsellor was also at the school Wednesday.
“Our emergency procedures worked so well yesterday; I am just so proud of our district,” said Dixon. “You never really know how valuable these processes are until you use them.”

Student seeks answers from MLA
Chilliwack RCMP have released an artist’s sketch of a man they would really like to talk to.
Police say the man approached a nine-year-old girl near FG Leary school June 2, ask-ing her to get into his vehicle.
T h e i n c i d e n t o c c u r r e d b e t w e e n 2:15 and 3 p.m. on First Avenue and McNaught Road. The man persistently asked the child to go with him and offered her candy in an effort to persuade her. The child rode away on her bike and no further contact was made.
“We are very interest-ed in speaking to the male who approached the girl and discussing with him his intentions,”said Const. Tracy Wolbeck. The male is described as having a full beard down to his neck with sideburns and greying hair. He was wearing a red sweater with a white shirt underneath and brown shoes. Police believe the male was driving an older model red van simi-lar to a Dodge Caravan.
Police are also encourag-ing parents and teachers to discuss the importance of “stranger danger” with their

superintendent Evelyn Novak was asked Wednesday about the district’s plan for school-site day-cares during strike action, she said, “We’ll cross that bridge and make that decision based on the informa-tion that’s provided to us.”
A letter to parents that was posted to the school district’s web-site late Thursday morning, how-ever, says the Chilliwack Board of Education approved, on Tuesday, to provide daycares and preschools the choice to remain open on days of teacher strike action.
(Chilliwack school district did not allow them to stay open during rotating strike action, despite the Chilliwack Teachers’ Union agree-ing not to picket them. The district cited cleanliness concerns, due to CUPE staff not crossing picket lines, as their reasons for closing the sites.)
According to the online let-ter, the school district is cancel-ing all other non-school district activities, including StrongStart
Centres, Community Schools, Neighbourhood Learning Centres and facility rentals during strike action.
There was no information pro-vided about the school district’s plans for Fraser Valley Distance Education or summer school.
The province has pledged to end its partial lockout of teachers at the end of the school year to enable summer school operations, but it’s not clear whether summer school would happen under a full strike.
“That’s what we have not been informed of fully, whether or not the strike would continue to stop sum-mer school, or whether it would cease and shift a decision that’s not been given out to us yet,” said Chilliwack Teachers’ Association president Clint Johnston.
“At this point there’s been no final decision made on summer school. It depends on the course of bargaining over the weekend and whether a deal is achieved or not.”
The issuance of strike notice followed an 86 per cent strike vote
Monday and Tuesday with a record turnout of more than 33,000 BCTF members.
An email to teachers advised them to take personal possessions with them in case schools don’t reopen before summer.
The province has offered a $1,200 signing bonus if teachers accept its proposal of 7.25 per cent in wage increases over six years by June 30.
The BCTF’s latest proposal is for increases totaling 9.75 per cent over four years, plus partial cost-of-living adjustments in each year tied to inflation.
The two sides have differing estimates of the compounded grand total of the union’s wage demand – the BCTF estimates it at 12.75 per cent over four years, while BCPSEA pegs it at 14.7 per cent and says other non-wage compensation costs will further increase the bill, perhaps beyond 19 per cent.

Buskers add something vital to city life.
Chilliwack officials are hoping to increase the presence of street per-formers and buskers in the down-town core — and they’re waiving the $40 permit fee all month long to do it.
“We believe that buskers make the downtown a more enticing and vibrant place to be while providing an opportunity for local musicians to share their talent with our commu-nity,” said Mayor Sharon Gaetz.
She’s encouraging locals to take a moment to savour the performance if they see a busker.
Stop and listen or watch. If folks like what they hear, they are welcome provide the busker with a little contri-bution in the hat or instrument case.
“The street entertainment pro-gram is just another example of how the City of Chilliwack is working with the community to make downtown Chilliwack a vibrant, dynamic and liveable area,” said Gaetz.
City officials decided to waive the permit fee specifically to encourage more street performers to come for-ward and share their talents.
The best ones have typically already invested years honing their
considerable artistic skills.Part of the concept is geared to
benefiting the performer but also to aid in the revitalization of downtown Chilliwack.
The street entertainer program, developed through the Recreation and Culture Department, is still in its infancy here and needs a boost.
There was too little support offered in the first year to the performers who bought permits, so it’s hoped the community will warm up to the idea this summer.
Anyone interested can sign up to become a busker. They fill out and submit an application, available at www.chilliwack.com. Then they’ll audition in front of a quality control panel for up to five minutes.
Once approved, the entertainers can set up in pre-approved locations around the downtown, and accept offerings from the community.
Details about applying for a street entertainer permit are at www.chilli-wack.com/busker.
The offer of a free permit is good until June 30.
Buskers who have already paid for a permit in 2014, are asked to contact Corporate Services at 604-792-9311 to obtain a refund before the end of the month deadline.

Calling all buskers
children and students.“We have not had
reports of any similar incidents in Chilliwack over the last week but want to continue to encourage parents to talk to their kids,” said Cst. Wolbeck. Children also need to be made aware of the potential dangers of getting into a vehicle with a stranger.
“These are conver-sations that no parents want to have, but it is important to be candid and honest with them about the possible dan-gers that exist.”
Anyone with any information regarding this incident or recog-nize the individual in the sketch, is asked to contact the Chilliwack RCMP at 604 792-4611 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477(TIPS).

PointsProgressThe ChilliwackThe Chilliwack Progress is published by Black Press Group Ltd., every Wednesday and
Friday at 45860 Spadina Ave., Chilliwack. The Progress is a member of the Canadian Community Newspaper Association, British Columbia and Yukon Community Newspaper Association and B.C. Press Council.
Two weeks ago, 300 scientists from across Canada signed a letter to Prime Minister Harper urging him to reject the report of the Joint Review Panel that supported the Northern Gateway Project with 209 conditions. The letter stated that their assess-ment represented a “flawed anal-ysis of the risks and benefits to British Columbia’s environment and society.”
According to the letter, the JRP failed to provide a rationale for their findings. The panel’s mission was to decide if the $6.5 billion pipeline was in the best interests of British Columbians and, by extension, Canadians based on long term economic, environmental, and social costs and risks. The scientists felt the JRP narrowed down the risks and broadened the benefits.
The Panel treated uncertain risks as unimportant. Apparently,
Enbridge’s project omitted miti-gation plans for numerous poten-tial environmental damages and the Panel glossed over it, effec-
tively sanction-ing a lack of fore-thought for miti-gation action rath-er than demand-ing to know what those plans would be in the event of pipeline failure. The Panel also allegedly contra-dicted informa-
tion on endangered species and critical habitat documented in the government’s own reports. In addition, the Panel was not given a mandate by the govern-ment to consider the oil sands development in relation to cli-mate change.
All this could backfire on Harper. His environmental track
record and respect for scientists is pretty bleak. While Canada agreed to lower CO2 emissions to 17 per cent below 2005 levels by 2020, its most recent report to the UN projected our emissions will increase to 24 per cent above the international target in 2020 and 78 per cent of that growth is expected to come from oil sands production. In Environment Canada’s own report (October 2013), emissions are expected to be double over the 2005 to 2020 time period.
Harper has his back to the wall on Northern Gateway. A ‘yes’ decision will infuriate thousands of British Columbians and could cost valuable votes in next year’s general election. In 2011 conser-vative candidates were elected in 21 of 36 ridings, down one seat from 22 the party won in the 2008. He needs them all. The landscape has changed in the
last three years and the federal Liberals have leapfrogged over him in popularity polls.
According to an Ekos poll in April, the Liberals were at 36 points, the Conservatives 27 and the NDP 22 points. For the Libs, that’s double their popularity than in 2011 when the party ran in the election on the Ignatieff ticket. Enter Justin Trudeau. For all his political bumps in the road, the young, charismatic leader rubbed off enough to rejuvenate interest in the middle-of-the-road club. Whether that lasts is anoth-er thing.
The scientists’ letter has huge merits. But Canada’s economy is resource driven. Oil, gas, mining, and forestry represent 13 per cent of Canada’s economic activ-ity and nearly half of its exports, putting $30 billion annually into government coffers. And we’re dependent on oil until clean ener-
gy alternatives are fully devel-oped to a commercial level.
Given the lightning rod pro-file of the pipeline, opinion polls are all over the place. British Columbians worry about tank-er traffic and oil spills. But an online Insights West poll last November found that 42 per cent of participants support the pipe-line, up seven points since their February 2013 poll. Opposition was at 47 per cent, down 14 points from 61 per cent. And a recent Bloomberg-Nanos poll found 34 per cent want it rejected, 33 per cent want it delayed and 29 per cent want it approved.
PM Harper will have to tread carefully on Northern Gateway. Bets are he won’t say ‘no’. It is how he says ‘yes’ that’ll fix his future.
The Enbridge dilemma: Costs and benefits for HarperLOCALLY GLOBAL
Communication breakdownSo it appears the school year for Chilliwack students will end, not with a
bang, but a whimper.Yesterday may well have been the last day of classes for students within
the public system.Thursday morning the B.C. Teachers’ Federation formally issued a 72-hour
strike notice, meaning a full strike will begin Tuesday, unless a deal can be reached over the weekend.
Chilliwack students, however, were already out of classes on Friday because of rotating strikes. And they will be out Monday as well, as teachers hold “study sessions” with their union at locations off school property.
What all this means for parents is still unclear.The Chilliwack School Board apparently held a board meeting on June 10
to discuss contingency plans, but the district only posted a letter regarding that meeting and the steps it proposes to take at noon Thursday on its website.
The letter addressed some issues, like daycares. The board voted June 10 to give daycares located on school property the choice to remain open dur-ing the strike, but parents will have to find out if they actually are. (Why this was necessary is unclear, because the Chilliwack Teachers’ Association had already told the board that the daycares would not be picketed.)
As for what will happen in the schools on Monday, that too seems unclear. The schools will be open, no pickets will be in place, but in the letter to parents the district does not say if students should be kept at home.
All “non school” district activities, like facility rentals, StrongStart Centres, Neighbourhood Learning Centres and Community Schools will be closed during any strike action, but will remain open on the Monday.
As for final exams and marks, the Labour Relations Board has provided some clarity there. Provincial exams for grades 10-12 will go ahead, but school-based exams will not. All school-based final grades for Grade 12 are to be submitted by June 20.
Other exams, final marks and assessments aren’t discussed in the letter.But parents are encouraged to “monitor our website for the most current
information we have.”Cold comfort for something everyone saw coming, but no one seems to be
prepared for.~ Greg Knill, Chilliwack Progress

In the June 4 edi-tion of The Progress you printed an article regarding “Support Staff Pay price for Strike.”
Give me a break, lady. You work for a union, you enjoy the benefits that other union members have suffered for so that you benefit from them and you have the nerve to say you are suffering.
If you do not want to support your unions then perhaps you need to go and work for a non union com-pany. The trouble with union members in this province, is that they don’t stick together. If each union supported the other guys union maybe unions would not be so helpless in the face of government intervention. And to
top it off you have a husband to support you.
We all have our financial woes as work-ing class people, and as a single mom at one time, I stood on the picket line to sup-port my union. And this goes for all single moms as well. How dare you use that excuse not to support your union.
Like I said you all enjoy the coffee break, the holiday pay, the three week vacations, medical plan etc.
Maybe instead of going after the teach-ers in this strike, you should use you God given right to vote in a different government that sees the needs of the people, not just big business.

Time to stand by your union
Not all disabilities are visibleTo the coward who wrote a
note outlining their concern for my husband’s disability.
Not all disabilities are visu-al. I suppose we are all guilty of looking at someone saying, “Boy they look OK why do they have a disability placard.” However, to the person who wrote a note to my husband and putting it under the wiper several weeks ago while he was in shopping in Chilliwack, he is disabled. No, he has no visual disabilities as in no loss of limbs or in a wheelchair and on some good days he doesn’t use his
cane when he actually feels up to even going out.
My husband had injuries incurred while on military duty and didn’t realize how much damage actually occurred until 10 years later after many hours flying during search and rescue missions. Now he has many issues dealing with these inju-ries – including feeling bad he is using disability placards etc.
He was so upset wondering why a note and the person did not having the courage to actu-ally face my husband. The note referred that if my husband got
more exercise, he would not have the need for disabled park-ing spots or maybe the person’s thought was he wouldn’t be dis-abled if he got more exercise.
This is to let the note writer know my husband is a decent man who served his country and he would be the first one to give up a disabled spot to some one required more than he did.
My husband wasn’t overly happy about me writing this let-ter but I felt this needed saying. So remember before you write notes and put them on cars all the circumstances.

Parenting is one of the most important jobs that we do. Nurturing Fathers is a program that supports men in their role as a father to stay actively and positively involved with their children, even during diffi cult times of divorce and separation.
Scott grew up with a father who was disrespectful to all women. Scott recognized that his upbringing affected how he interacted with his family. He never learned the skills of having a healthy relationship. “I joined Nurturing Fathers looking for a place to deal with my anger without hurting my kids and the mother of my children.”
Nurturing Fathers helped Scott identify what triggered his abusive behaviour and how to make choices that are safe and respectful. “I learned about how to be a better father. It has made a huge difference in our lives.”

As you may well know the BCTF (British Columbia Teachers’ Federation) and the provincial government are cur-rently at a political and social standstill over a strike action movement led by the BCTF.
The BCTF is demanding to decrease class sizes, increase funding per student (Which has dropped exponentially in the past 10 years), higher wages and a number of other reasons.
The British Columbia pro-vincial government does not want to cater to the teachers for a few reasons. These rea-sons include the fact that the proposed changes won’t fit into their budget, and if the gov-ernment gives in to the BCTF other unions will see a chance
to get higher wages and better conditions as well which in turn will cost more money.
I am currently attending Sardis secondary school and the viewpoints of these two sides are the only thing I ever here among my peers.
“Whose side are you on?” is a common question in the hallways. I can honestly say as a student I am on neither the side of the BCTF nor the provincial government. I am on the side of the students whose educations are being affected by this strike.
Students should not have our educations taken hostage and used as a bartering piece in this debate as we did not do any-thing to deserve mistreatment.
Although I personally have not been largely affected by the strikes I know of quite a few students who have, and will be affected going into their provin-cial and school issued exams in a large and unfair way.
If the provincial government and the BCTF need to solve wage issues and fix class sizes why not do so without harming the educations of the hundreds of thousands of children in the BC public school system by having these discussions in the summer; or simply keeping the damage to a minimum by not cutting out and limiting lunch times and after-school help?

NewsRe-imagining Chilliwack’s downtown
The Walas CEO has a back-ground in Holland as a lawyer, economist and philosopher, with ample experience in project management. Walas Concepts is a rapidly growing Dutch based company that was start-ed in Rotterdam with offices in Vancouver as well.
He told the crowd he met urbanist innovator Jane Jacobs in the 1990s and was very influ-enced by her thinking.
“Jane Jacobs said that ‘Designing a dream city is easy; rebuilding a living one takes imagination.’
“But I would add that it will also take everyone who lives
here to get involved. “Cities have the capacity to
provide something for every-body only because, and only when they are created for every-body.”
Walas has a very inclusive, holistic and accessible way of looking at things.
“We cover a lot of disciplines but we’re not magicians,” he said. “We need everyone to pull together to make the changes. Reactivating the downtown core, with all the initiatives blended together in one business model.”
Part of the idea is generat-ing local entrepreneurs, urban farmers and business startups, and even getting the education
sector involved.“One year from now everyone
will believe in their downtown,” van Straaten boldly predicted.
City council approved $65,000 in CDI funding in March for the Walas proposal, which would have a $195,000 annual bud-get to concentrate on business development and attraction in the downtown, as well as boost-ing commercial occupancy.
The Walas CEO had a closing message for Chilliwack:
“Anyone who wants to do any-thing in the downtown, come talk to me.”

The public is invited to learn a little more about Chilliwack Crime Prevention Services, have some fun – and drive away in a clean car.
The volunteer orga-nization is holding a car wash fund raiser on Saturday, June 21 in the Walmart parking lot at Eagle Landing.
There will be games, food, prizes and, of course, a car wash.
Funds raised from the event will support the many programs offered by the society.
Those programs include: Block Watch, which gives neighbours the tools and support to prevent crime in their neighbourhoods; Citizens on Patrol, which provides RCMP with additional eyes and ears on the street; Speed Watch, which reminds drivers to operate their vehicles in a safe man-ner; and, Crime Free Multi-Housing, which
gives building manag-ers and strata coun-cils the education and resources they need to keep their buildings safe and secure for all residents.
Information about these programs, and how you can be involved, will be available at next Saturday’s event. It’s an opportunity to come out and support Chilliwack
Crime Prevention Services, organizers say – a non-profit organiza-tion, serving Chilliwack since 1992.
The event runs from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Nicole Wierks may be the most well-known student graduating from the University of the Fraser Valley this year. She earned that fame as a leader of the UFV Cascades women’s basketball team that stormed its way to a third-place finish at the national championships in March 2014.
But did you know Wierks is also an excellent student? In fact, she excels academically to such an extent that she is graduating from UFV as the Governor General’s sil-ver medalist.
The silver medal is given to the student graduating from an under-graduate degree program with the highest grade point average (GPA) over their last 30 credits. A perfect GPA is 4.33 and that is what Wierks achieved in that time frame. In fact, she has had nothing but perfect A+ grades over the last five semes-ters of her university career. And over the course of her five years at UFV, her cumulative GPA is a near-perfect 4.23.
Wierks, who lives in Chilliwack, is graduating with a Bachelor of Science degree with a major in biol-ogy. She also took many kinesiol-ogy courses on the way to earning her degree. As she made her way on her academic journey, medi-cal school became her goal. She applied to three medical schools this year, and was accepted to all three.
Because she likes the idea of staying close to family and in beautiful BC, she will be working towards becoming Dr. Wierks at the University of British Columbia.
Throughout her university career, Wierks has balanced aca-demics and athletics at a very high level, while also incorporating vol-unteer work and coping with long-term injuries.
After battling back from a torn ACL injury in Grade 11, she wasn’t even sure if basketball was in her future, but then UFV coach Al Tuchscherer came calling.
“I knew playing basketball and going to university would be a lot of work and it was a big decision,” she recalls. “I knew I could either quit or do something special with the
gifts I had been given.”To UFV’s benefit, she chose
to strive for success on the floor-boards and in the classroom.
Much of her studying was done on bus rides, in hotel rooms, and in airport lounges as she travelled the country playing basketball for the UFV Cascades for five seasons.
For those five years life was bas-ketball and studies, with a little time left over for friends and family.
“Basketball players don’t have much free time. Other people might be starting their homework at 4 pm, and we typically wouldn’t start until 9 or 10 at night. My down time was spent with the team, and we all knew how important it was to keep up with the academic side. I knew university would be a lot of work — my older friends had scared me into being prepared for it! But I’m pretty good at independent learning and adapting to different learning styles and demands.
“There was a lot of studying, but it got easier. Once you establish study habits, you know that you’ve
done it before and you can do it again.”
She found she could do very well in the classroom as well as hold her own against the best players in Canadian university basketball.
And by her second year in 2010, she had concrete evidence on both those fronts.
The Cascades, still fairly new to the Canadian Interuniversity Sport organization after moving up from the college level, defeated the University of Winnipeg in CIS play-off action, recording the first CIS playoff victory for the UFV women. The Cascades had made the CIS playoffs twice before, but not with the roster of players Wierks was a part of.
“That was the point where we saw the reward for all of our hard work and we knew that we were getting somewhere and if we kept working hard it would pay off. It was great to come third in Canada this year, but beating Winnipeg in second year is probably my fondest basketball memory.”
Academically, getting her MCAT results was the highlight of her time at UFV. The MCAT (Medical College Admissions Test) is a standardized exam for prospective medical students.
“Medical school was in the back of my mind because I enjoyed sci-ence and had volunteered in the hospital before.”
She took the exam twice — once to get a feel for it and one to get marked and use for the basis of med school applications.
“Getting that MCAT score back and finding that I had done well on it was such a relief! I had spent my whole summer when I was 21 studying for it, and getting the results indicated that medical school was a real possibility.”
In addition to her basketball teammates (including her sister Sarah), Wierks also got to know fel-low students and professors in the biology department.
This spring she won an award at Student Research Day for her work with Dr. Anthony Stea on the
prevalence of genetically modified components in cereals in Canada.
“I can’t really single out any pro-fessors — they were all good, they all helped me out, and I grew close to them. My professors were very supportive when managing school and basketball got tough during the busiest times of year. They knew me and worked with me so I could balance it all.”
Wierks is the oldest of four sib-lings: all of whom were studying at UFV last year, and all of whom have career goals in the health sciences field.
As she prepares to enter medical school, she knows she’ll be miss-ing her basketball teammates and friends and family. But she also knows that combining high-level basketball with the rigors of a sci-ence degree was good preparation for the demands of medical school.
“I figure I’ve been in school and working hard for a long time. What’s four more years? And I’m happy that I took the road that I did.”

Lance Nickel will be spending Father’s Day weekend paying it for-ward.
The 37-year-old father of three lost his own father, Henry, to lymphoma in 2008.
After he was diagnosed in 2001, he had a few operations which compro-mised his immune system.
In 2005, midway through Henry’s seven-year battle with cancer, he was transferred to Royal Columbian Hospital — it was April 28, one day after the birth of Lance’s first son.
Henry got pneumonia, then his lungs shut down, then his kidneys failed, and then he went on dialysis.
He died at the age of 58.“When he passed away, he was far
too young,” Lance says.Lance felt cheated. He had just
started a family of his own. Tyson was three, Lincoln was only a year old, Dylan hadn’t even been born yet, and already his father was gone.
“I needed to find a way so that other people could spend more time

Father’s Day
with family.”So a year ago, he
signed up to take part in the B.C. Ride to Conquer Cancer, not realizing until later that the event was on Father’s Day.
“It’s a way for me to make some kind of a difference,” he says.
Living on a farm, hav-ing a full-time job, and chasing after three kids, Lance has always been an active man, but he’s never done anything
too extreme.That will change
on Saturday when he leaves the Cloverdale Fairgrounds on his bike for the 200km ride. Over two days, the team from B.C. will cycle south into the States. They’ll ride about 100km each day and finish in Redmond, WA on Sunday.
Lance has spent the last year training hard for the B.C. Ride to Conquer Cancer.
“Whenever I can steal a moment to go for
a bike ride, whether it’s an hour or a few hours, I take it.”
He says cycling long distances “hurts like hell, but it’s a nice way to get out and get some exercise.”
Lance has raised $3,000 for the B.C. Cancer Agency (BCCA). The majority of the money came from donations from family, friends and coworkers.
“Even the kids donat-ed a little bit.”
He also organized a garage sale where friends and family donated items to sell. All proceeds went to BCCA.
Now he’s looking for-ward to the long ride.
“I’m pretty jazzed up for it. I think it’ll be fun.”
With all the hard work he’s done over the year, there’s no doubt Lance will be thinking of his father on Sunday.
“He was a great man. He was a dairy farmer all his life,” he says. “Growing up on the dairy farm, it was just my brother and I, so my dad was always home and he taught us a lot.”
Henry loved soccer — he coached and reffed — and helped start the annual Chilliwack Youth Soccer Tournament.
When Lance cross-es the finish line on Father’s Day, his three sons and wife Carolyn will be there to greet him. Then they’ll head back home.
What else does Lance want to do on Father’s Day?
“I’ll just leave it up to them,” he says. “We usually go up to the lake for a picnic, or play a game of soccer.”

Learn from the experts about public safety June 25Community
It’s all about protect-ing yourself better.
The second of three public safety workshops in Chilliwack is set for June 25 at the PRTC.
Law enforcement reps will be offering tips on
how citizens can protect themselves, by better securing their homes, their vehicles and their own personal safety.
Experts will cover safety issues in the home such as securing doors
and windows, or work-ing with lighting, fencing or landscaping. They’ll talk about the options for surveillance, alarms and engraving, as well as keeping records and maintenance. Personal
safety topics will range from preventing assault, to identity theft, to when to call 9-1-1.
The workshops being presented to the com-munity are in direct response to an earlier Chilliwack Healthier Community forum, when someone asked where they could go to
learn more about public safety.
The free public safety workshop is June 25, 7 p.m. at the Pacific Region Training Centre, #1100-45337 Calais Cresent, presented by Chilliwack Healthier Community, RCMP, Chilliwack Crime Prevention Services and City of Chilliwack.

Safety Tip:This early summer weather means more cyclists on the road, so as a driver shoulder checking is very important – especially when making right hand turns at intersections, before pulling
away from a curb and before you open your vehicle door.
Question of the WeekGrad season is upon us and parents brace for the seemingly inevitable headlines about youngsters dying in drunk driving crashes. Would you support an initiative to ban young drivers from getting behind the wheel when attending grad celebrations?

Subaru has a longer Legacy than most know…Lafayette, Indiana – The Subaru Legacy could be consid-ered the wallflower of the midsize sedan pack.Front-runners like the Toyota Camry, Honda Accord, Chrysler 200 and Mazda6 constantly battle it out for their share of the limelight. All while this humble four-door sits on the sideline.In fact, some people don’t even know it’s in the game! According to the Japanese brand’s market research, many of those surveyed in major Canadian cities didn’t even know they had such a car available. Well, they do. And it’s great.For those not familiar with the Legacy, here are a few key points:It’s now in its sixth generation – yes, sixth – and has been around since 1989. It is 25 years young and looks nice for its age.The 2015 model comes with the option of two engines: a 2.5L, 4-cylinder (175 horsepower and 174 lb-ft of torque) and a 3.6L, 6-cylinder (256 horsepower and 247 lb-ft of torque.)What’s great about the 4-cylinder, Subaru offers it with a 6-speed manual. Our friends to the south don’t have access to such awesomeness. But on the flip side, it’s only available on the base model.Aside from the 6-speed manual, Subaru offers their version of a Continuously Variable Transmission, aka the Lineartronic CVT.While some might not be a fan of this type of trans-mission, don’t knock it until you try it. Subaru does an excellent job with the gear simulations and I didn’t feel the drone of the system under hard acceleration, even with the 4-cylinder. While I’d pick a manual any day, the CVT is darn good.So is the Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive system, a stan-dard feature on all Legacy trims.It came in handy in the backcountry roads of rural Indiana. Freak thunderstorm with torrential downpour where you can’t see two metres in front of you? No problem! The windshield wipers were doing their darnedest to keep up with precipitation but the car re-
mained calm, collected, and stayed on the straight and narrow, even in the ultra low traction environment.For the times when it wasn’t pouring cats and dogs, taking the twisty turns was quite a lot of fun. Despite
its electric power steering – a steering type that can be done either really well or not at all – there’s a good weight to it. It’s not lazy or sleepy at highway speeds, but won’t give you an arm workout if you need to change lanes. It’s not jerky either. Moving the wheel in either direction won’t make the vehicle suddenly jump aggressively. Think of it like Goldilocks and the Three Bears. The
steering isn’t too hard, or too soft. It’s just right.As for the ride and handling, the imperfections of the road aren’t met with abrasion or hesitance. The undulating country roads were a great testing ground, especially with all the debris. But even with a fair share of highway cruising, I have no qualms with the setup.Inside the cabin, you’ll be welcomed by Japanese
hospitality. A modern infotainment system, an unclut-tered cabin, and soft seats make a day’s drive quite favourable.While the Legacy might not be at the forefront of consumers’ minds, Subaru is a renowned brand. And it’s renowned for its reliability and safety. This generation of product should be any different. On some models, you have the ability to outfit it when EyeSight, a system that includes pre-collision braking, pre-collision brake assist, pre-collision throttle management, adaptive cruise control, lane departure warning, lane sway warning, and lead vehicle start alert.The 2015 Subaru Legacy, with the manual transmission Subaru’s Symmetrical full-time All-Wheel Drive starts at impressive MSRP of $23,495. Shoot all the way to the top, and you’ll get the 3.6 Limited trim with Technol-ogy Package Option for $35,395. Of course, there are offerings in between. As for its wallflower status, I think it has the goods and confidence to play ball with the rest of the pack.

Our classic and collector car expert continues today with the fi nal part of his four-part series on the restoration of public relations executive Laura Ballance’s rare 1967 Ford Mustang T5 by 360 Fabrication in Abbotsford. The restoration story of Laura Ballance’s Mustang T5 has been an interesting to follow and one that is not typical of this kind of project.
Before I get carried away telling you what a T5 actually is, I have to report that with the help of the team at 360 Fabrication, suppliers White and Peters, BASF paint and the 200 plus hours of paint preparation, application, wet sanding and polishing by master painter Darren Emmerson, the car is fi nished! And here is the best part, it’s on time and under budget, almost unheard of in days gone by let alone today.
So what is so special about a T5 Mustang? – The Ford Mustang could not be sold in Germany as a Mustang because a truck manu-facturer there and later a motorcycle manufacturer owned the trademarked name Mustang. Both manu-facturers offered to sell the rights to Ford for $10,000 each but Ford declined and decided the solution would be to use the initial Mustang project name T5 as the solu-tion. With all of the changes required, they should have probably paid the $10,000. With there being so many U.S. armed forces bases in Germany, export models were highly sought after. Laura had no idea how rare her car was until she decided to embark on this project and began doing her research. The T5 registry has informed Laura that of the 453 Mustang Hardtop T5s built in 1967, hers is one of the few examples ordered with a vinyl roof, which is listed as an option in the V.I.N tag. There are only two T5s known to exist in Canada, hers and one in Ontario and only 45 have survived in various states of condition worldwide. It is going to be a busy summer for Laura, her two daughters and the Mustang. I suspect her father, never in his wildest dreams would have thought the car would
end up as a show car let alone become a family affair involving three generations of his family. The T5 will debut at the Vancouver Classic Car Show and Auc-tion at the PNE on June 21 and 22. A picture of it at it’s gleaming best in next week’s Driveway preview of that show. Then it will head south in July to the Mustang Roundup in Bellevue, Wash-ington, the world’s largest Mustang meet. The car is entered in the Concours restoration class and should place well. Because this is the 50th anniversary of the Mustang the invitations are pouring in, the most recent one from an event in North Carolina, Laura still has a day job so unfortunately will miss that one. She will fi nish the sum-mer off at the Luxury Super-Car weekend at VanDusen Gardens in September. The car will be viewed at least 30 or 31 times in a month, gracing the walls of garages and repair shops all over North America featured in a 2015 Ford calendar. This con-cludes a restoration project with a happy conclusion.

An electrifying and smart choice
Which cars on the market today don’t I like?It’s a question I’m often asked and one I struggle to answer. Today’s automobiles are made so well, there are no real turkeys. But, and there is always a “but”, there are certainly cars I like more than others and some I prefer not to drive. The regular Smart ForTwo is one of them. The small dimensions are perfect as a city runabout but the lethargic gasoline engine and very choppy automatic transmission make it more work to drive than I prefer. Well, after driving the latest Smart ForTwo Electric Drive (Smart Electric) my mood has changed to the point that this might be the best little electric car for the city, it’s that good.Looks: The Smart Electric looks like the regular Smart, with a compact little body that provides and amazing amount of interior space and a lot of crash protection on the outside. The exterior of all the Smart Cars have been designed as a singular safety cage, called the Tridion Safety Cell. Other cars have exterior panels that absorb impacts the Smart’s exterior metal bits are the strongest part of the car. In crash tests, these tiny cars fare well. The Smart Electric, just like the gasoline version, is available as a coupe or cabriolet. Spotting a Smart Electric is a bit tricky; this is not like buying a Toyota Prius or Chevy Volt. No, this little dynamo blends right in. It is only a small decal on the
side with the emblem of a plug or the subtle badge on that back that gives anything away.Inside: My nine-year-old son Charlie really wanted to go for a ride not because it’s electric but because he had never been in a Smart Car before and wanted to see what all the fuss was about. Since there are only two seats, he could place his seat back as far as he liked and had vast amounts of leg room. He also commented on the large cargo shelf behind the two front seats for storage. The cabin is tall and we both had a commanding view down the road. The rest of the cabin is refreshingly simple. There are two bug-like gauges on top of the dash that indicate the batteries state of charge and if the car is drawing power or regenerating power when coasting or braking. The instrument cluster provides a simple trip computer display-ing the vehicle’s electric range and an “eco” meter that helps the driver be more effi cient. Drive: Under the cargo shelf in the back is the Lithium-Ion battery pack that has 17.6kWh or roughly, a 135km range when fully charged. This little car can be quick too, thanks to the 96 ft.-lbs. of instant torque from the electric motor. This moves the car along quickly, but the throttle has been calibrated for smooth acceleration, helping the driver gain the best effi ciency. I should point out that the high centre of gravity, short wheelbase and slightly choppy ride all combine to make a less than connected car in the corners, so be aware that this car can accelerate quickly but it will not corner quickly. What the electric version has over the regular gasoline model
is a much smoother delivery of power. No more anemic gasoline engine and gone is the choppy transmission. The electric motor is smooth and refi ned.Verdict: Once again, the Smart is a perfect of example of how to get the most out of a small space. The electric cord that connects the car to a 120-volt outlet is packaged into the tailgate of the car; in fact this is the best electric car packaging I’ve seen. Most companies just leave a bag in the trunk, while this system hides it all away. With a starting price of $26,990 for the coupe or $29,990, the
Smart Electric is an expensive two-seat car but a bargain the electric world, the least expensive in Canada. The regular gasoline Smart is really an inner-city runabout, which is why the electric version makes so much sense. With up to 138km of range, this Smart Electric will have more than enough range for existing Smart buyers and a great second car for any city family. The Smart electric is now on my list of cars that I truly enjoy driving, the best Smart of the [email protected]

Prosecuting ‘Curbers’ is costly to the taxpayer
CHILLIWACK30309
www.chilliwackford
.com5-09F CF1
Bringing a curber conman to justice can cost tens of thousands of dollars.While penalties can be high, many successful prosecutions may yield a fi ne of just a few hundred dollars. One case currently before the courts is
fi ve days into a trial over a $288 ticket. The costs to date of further action against the offender are now approaching $80,000. At fi rst sight, one might think it appropriate to save public cash but the problem is allow-
ing a dismissal to occur sets a dangerous precedent that could harm future prosecu-tions.Because the matter is still before the court, the ac-cused’s name is withheld but the circumstances can be
revealed because they are instructive. The Surrey man has undergone continuous legal action by the VSA (in partnership with the City of Surrey). The Provincial Court found him guilty on three charges of curbing. He
continued to curb so the VSA obtained an injunction from the BC Supreme Court. That did not deter him so the VSA applied to the BC Supreme Court to fi nd him in contempt of court. If successful the man will face a fi ne of $10,000 if
found curbing again.This form of con clearly can be very profi table, if the perpetrators fi gure fi nes and legal expenditures are merely the cost of doing business. However, the following cases illustrates typical curber prac-
tices and the penalties they could face.One prolifi c curber was convicted with 31 counts of fraud. He was buying vehicles wholesale from licensed deal-ers and selling them to the public. He rolled back more than two million kilometres. He was fi ned $31,000, two vehicles were seized from him, and he was put on probation for three years. A curber from Williams Lake claimed he sold cars as a hobby. After several tickets and warnings from the VSA, Crown Counsel issued court charges against him. After pleading guilty, he was fi ned $2,000. A Delta man was convicted of fraud – 15 charges with evi-dence of odometer tampering, inaccurate vehicle histories, sales tax violations and other deliberately deceptive practices. Crown Prosecutor said he targeted the most vulnerable consumers, such as recent immigrants who had poor English. There was delib-erate planning to perpetrate each fraud – fi nding a low priced vehicle, rolling back the odometer, detailing to improve the appearance of the vehicle, creating a false history, fi nding a suitable “victim,” forging offi cial documents and tax fraud. This occurred on more than one occasion.As the buyers were “complic-it” in the fraud, there was no consumer restitution for 12 of the 15 counts. They agreed to false documentation to save on taxes – a common practice used by curbers. This makes consumers fearful to go to authorities when something goes awry.He received a one-year conditional sentence. He also agreed to perform 100 hours of community service.I’m indebted to the Vehicle Sales Authority of BC for providing the research neces-sary for produce last week’s typical curber profi le story and today’s account of real scams. Please, if you don’t want to buy from an established deal-ership, do your due diligence as to the registration and condition of the vehicle you plan to [email protected]

Smarter selection
In today’s column, Chilliwack Golf Academy instructor Kathy Stecyk talks about the importance of proper club selection.
During playing lessons I have observed that most beginner golfers and higher handicappers leave their approach shots short. Way too often I see their ball end up short of the green, on the front fringe or just on the front portion of the putting surface.
I have also observed that the problem is not always due to a lack of distance that the golfer generates within their swing, but instead poor club selection.
It’s helpful to know how far you hit every club in your bag, but if you don’t, at least know the clubs that you hit 100, 150 and 200 yards. Many times those are the only yard-ages marked on the course, so by knowing those three clubs you will be able to make a more accurate decision on what’s needed for the in-between yardages. For exam-ple, if you hit your six iron 150 yards and your pitching wedge 100 yards, it’s a good bet that your eight iron will work for 125 yard shot.
If you don’t generate as much distance in your swing consider knowing what club you hit 50, 100 and 125 yards.The same principle applies. It’s all relative!
Remember that this is a game, so Don’t Plan On Perfection!
What I mean by this is very important to keep in mind; Golf is Not A Game of Perfect. (This is an awesome golf book by the way…)
If, on your best swing, your six iron travels 150 yards, that’s not the club to neces-sarily choose when you are 150 yards away.
What?
Yes, that’s right. Think about it for a minute. How often do you really make your best swing?
Unless you are a lean mean golfing machine, con-sider taking out the five iron instead. That way, if you put your less–than-best- swing on it and don’t make awesome ball contact you will still have the opportunity to reach the green.
As a rule of thumb, I encourage all of my clients to keep in mind this thought when making a club selection: You chose the right club for the shot if your best swing sends the ball to the back of the green.
For those golfers that are putting more time into their game, remember to re-eval-uate your yardages at the beginning of your play season just to make sure your yard-ages and club selection have not changed.
Ask yourself, “Do I really, really know how far I hit each club in my bag?”
If you don’t, you should, and if you are just beginning the game ask your instruc-tor to help you to begin this process.
The technology available today on the lesson tee, such as FLIGHTSCOPE, can pin-point your yardages for your best swing and ball contact instantly.
So for all of you beginner golfers and higher handicap-pers out there, opportunities await you on the green!
Learn your yardages and re-think your club selection when you are out there on the links! Now putt your way to lower scores!

Smarter selection
In today’s column, Chilliwack Golf Academy instructor Kathy Stecyk talks about the importance of proper club selection.
During playing lessons I have observed that most beginner golfers and higher handicappers leave their approach shots short. Way too often I see their ball end up short of the green, on the front fringe or just on the front portion of the putting surface.
I have also observed that the problem is not always due to a lack of distance that the golfer generates within their swing, but instead poor club selection.
It’s helpful to know how far you hit every club in your bag, but if you don’t, at least know the clubs that you hit 100, 150 and 200 yards. Many times those are the only yard-ages marked on the course, so by knowing those three clubs you will be able to make a more accurate decision on what’s needed for the in-between yardages. For exam-ple, if you hit your six iron 150 yards and your pitching wwedge 100 yards, it’s a good bet that your eight iron will wwork for 125 yard shot.
If you don’t generate as much distance in your swing consider knowing what club yyou hit 50, 100 and 125 yards.TThe same principle applies. It’s all relative!
Remember that this is a game, so Don’t Plan On Perfection!
What I mean by this is very important to keep in mind; Golf is Not A Game of Perfect. (This is an awesome golf book by the way…)
If, on your best swing, your six iron travels 150 yards, that’s not the club to neces-sarily choose when you are 150 yards away.
What?
kYes, that’s right. Think wabout it for a minute. How roften do you really make your
best swing?Unless you are a lean
mean golfing machine, con-sider taking out the five iron
tinstead. That way, if you put your less–than-best- swing on it and don’t make awesome ball contact you will still have the opportunity to reach the green.
As a rule of thumb, I encourage all of my clients
tto keep in mind this thought when making a club selection:
rYou chose the right club for the shot if your best swing
fsends the ball to the back of the green.
For those golfers that are rputting more time into their
game, remember to re-eval-uate your yardages at the beginning of your play season just to make sure your yard-ages and club selection have not changed.
Ask yourself, “Do I really, really know how far I hit each club in my bag?”

Where life-changing moments are concerned, there’s nothing more jarring than the loss of a par-ent.
No matter how old you are, los-ing a mom or dad forces you to eval-uate where you are, where you’ve been and where you’re going.
And that’s what Josh Hayden did after his dad passed away last October. Prior to that, Hayden was, by his own admission, a ‘punk kid living life in the fast lane.’
“That was an eye-opener, real-izing anything can happen at any point, and it made me realize that I needed to slow life down,” he said. “It made me appreciate the things that mattered, like family. The thing is, we were never all that close when he was around. Now he’s gone, but he’s with me every single day, with every choice I make.”
Surprisingly, Hayden always had good grades in school. He thanks mom Julie for always pushing, pushing, pushing on that, because those grades were good enough to gain him acceptance to Simon Fraser University.
“People wouldn’t have thought I’d have good grades, but I listened to her and I graduated with A hon-ours,” the 21 year old said.
Hayden had to make football hap-pen on his own.
Through a stroke of good for-tune, he was put in touch with Kim Chapdelaine, a sports trainer who just happens to be the wife of newly minted SFU head coach Jacques Chapdelaine. Hayden started work-ing out twice weekly in Abbotsford with Kim, who saw in him the poten-tial to play at the university level.
Once SFU accepted him academ-ically — aided by a letter of recom-mendation from Chilliwack second-ary school teacher and SFU Sports Hall of Famer Harold Willers — Kim suggested he reach out to the school’s football recruiters.
Things took off from there.Hayden’s talent has always been
unquestionable.Between the sidelines he’s shifty,
deceptively strong and willing to run through a wall to gain an extra yard.
It’s been injuries, mostly, that have conspired to derail him the last two years. While toiling for the junior football Valley Huskers in 2012 and 2013, the former pro-
vincial champion (2009 Chilliwack midget Giants) worried that his football dreams might be fading.
“That’s why I was so proactive, because I figured nothing was going to come to me,” he said. “My mom told me if I want it I have to go and get it. I want a career in football, and I want an education to fall back on. If it (football) doesn’t work, it’s not meant to be. But I did every-thing I could.”
Hayden has been told he’ll be either a receiver or running back with the Clansmen.
“I’ll play defensive back or offen-sive line,” he chuckled. “Ultimately, it’s whatever helps the team win.”
Hayden knows he’ll be red-shirt-ing for his first year, practicing with the team but not playing in games or traveling with them.
That’s necessary because he played junior football.
He’ll have two years of eligibility after that, and hopefully he’ll have scholarship opportunities after year one.
“That depends how well I do
on the field and in the classroom,” he said. “I’ll for sure be paying for school the first year.”
Most Canadian universities play CIS football. Simon Fraser plays division two NCAA ball in the Great Northwest Athletic Conference.
Hayden will play four-down foot-ball against the likes of the Western Oregon Wolves, Northwest Nazarene Crusaders and Alaska Fairbanks Nanooks — the GNAC currently has 10 full members.
“I’ve never played American foot-ball, so that’s something new,” he said. “It’ll be challenging but a lot of fun. I’m really excited for it.”
The ultimate dream, as it’s always been, is to play professionally.
“First and foremost I’ll come out of this with my Bachelor of Arts degree, so I’ll have a career to fall back on,” he said. “But if all goes perfect, getting to the National Football League or Canadian Football League would be great. If I devote my whole mind, body and soul to it, there’s no reason I can’t accomplish it.”
Chilliwack’s Josh Hayden will play NCAA football for the Simon Fraser University Clansmen. JENNA HAUCK/ PROGRESS

Trying for truck luck
The Valley Huskers will be without a popu-lar player this season, with three-year safe-ty Buomkuoth ‘BK’ Samuel moving on to university football.
Samuel missed the junior football age cut-off by just six days, making him ineligible
to return. Instead, he’ll try his luck with the University of Windsor Lancers, joining the CIS squad on an athletics scholarship.
Born in Ethiopa and raised in Kenya, Samuel was named the Huskers most improved player in 2012.

The UFV Cascades golf teams won’t be travelling very far on their way to the 2015 PING Golf National Championships.
The Canadian Colleges Athletic
Association (CCAA) announced Wednesday that the 2015 event will be played at UFV’s home course, the Chilliwack Golf and Country Club.
More than 100 var-sity golfers and coaches will visit the Valley for the tourney.
“It’s really excit-ing news for UFV and the Cascades golf pro-gram,” said UFV golf coach Chris Bertram. “The board at the CG&CC endorsed the bid enthusiastically and
I know general man-ager Bryan Ewart and his staff at the club are going to do a first class job hosting the event.”
The Cascades men’s and women’s teams both won gold at the 2013 championships.
They’re both consid-ered strong contenders for this year’s event, which will be hosted by Champlain College St. Lawrence in Quebec.
“We’re very excited about the opportu-nity to host the 2015 CCAA National Golf
Championships at a spectacular golf course nestled in the beauti-ful Fraser Valley,” said UFV athletics direc-tor Rocky Olfert. “Our committee is dedicated to providing a great stu-dent-athlete experience and we can’t wait to wel-come the top golfers in the CCAA.”
The Cascades just returned from Winnipeg, where the men finished fifth at the Canadian Univers i ty/Col lege Championships.

NygardClair John
Nov. 4, 1936 - Jun 8, 2014
After a hard fought battle with cancer, Clair Nygard has gone fi shing. He leaves his loving and caring wife of 54 years Valree, daughter Jill (Joel), son Clay, and grandsons Troy, Owen and Dylan waiting on the dock. He is survived by his sister Sharon and sister-in-law Verla (Barry). He loved his family, cherished his dogs and thoroughly enjoyed time with his extended family and friends. A day spent outside in the garden, hunting or on the water were always his fi rst choices and if his son was in the boat and the fi sh were bit-ing all was good. He was one of the best power moochers on the West Coast catching many 50 and two over 70. He was the original sports fi shing pioneer in Hakai Pass, putting it on the map as the fi shing destination. He owned and successfully ran Active Sales and Marketing for over 40 years. He respected and trusted his partner Geri and his dedicated staff long after he retired. He was a unique, one of a kind guy right up to the end and that is exactly what we will miss. Please join us as we celebrate his adven-ture fi lled life on June 18 at 2:00 p.m. at Henderson’s Fu-neral Home in Chilliwack.

Mom loved her family and showed them off proudly by displaying all of their pictures throughout her home.
