Gala RoyaleIt was a magical night at the
November Night gala.
Mike Schouten, spokesperson with WeNeedaLAW.ca, chats with an RCMP officer during an anti-abortion demonstration at the Veterans’ Memorial Park cenotaph in Chilliwack on Saturday. Schouten was one of the protestors who stuck 10,000 pink and blue flags in the city park grounds that morning. Each flag represents 10 abortions. JENNA HAUCK/ PROGRESS
Candidates asked for unique ideasJennifer FeinbergThe Progress
The Chilliwack Progress asked city council candidates to outline their “out-of-the-box” ideas this week as part of ongoing Elections 2014 coverage.
Sixteen of 17 candidates replied (with complete answers online
at www.theprogress.com) with what they would bring to the table if elected to “significant-ly improve” some aspect of
how the City of Chilliwack is run.Candidate Patti MacAhonic tack-
led poverty.“I believe the root cause of some
of the largest problems facing Chilliwack today is poverty. Social entrepreneurship—a drive for social undertakings that combine business principles and motiva-tions—are emerging as promising approaches to combating poverty,” she said. “I am proposing that we develop a poverty elimination strat-egy and policy using these innova-tive approaches that are measur-able and address key areas such as income security, housing, food security, employment, health, and childcare.”
Many of the ideas from first-time candidates had to do with “engag-ing” the electorate in a variety of ways.
Two of them zeroed in on youth.For candidate Kim Harder, the
idea is to establish a Youth Health Centre.
“Plenty of evidence exists to show that engaging youth early on creates, healthier, safer and there-fore one could say, more attractive cities,” said Harder, adding she also favours youth representation at the city level. “When you look at the excitement young people have around events like We Day, it’s

There should have been a little more respect shown in Chilliwack for Canadian soldiers and veter-ans.
That was the sentiment from some residents this week, in the wake of an anti-abortion protest that covered a city property in blue and pink flags Saturday morning.
Organizers said they thought they had permission to blanket the Chilliwack Museum grounds in 10,000 flags.
City staff contend they did not in fact have permission, as no formal request was received from
organizers to use the civic proper-ty, which includes the Chilliwack Cenotaph.
About 25 members of group, made up of local volunteers with Fraser Valley Association for Reformed Political Action and WeNeedaLAW.ca went ahead anyway and set up the anti-abor-tion display at about 7 a.m. on Nov. 1.
“We are doing this to show to our community the momentous impact that abortion has on our community and nation,” said orga-nizer Emily Van Brederode in a press release before the event.
“Although our political leaders claim that abortion should be safe,
legal and rare, these flags show that it is happening 100,000 times every year in Canada.”
But the comments and reac-tions to the anti-abortion display were scathingly critical that night online, after photos popped up of the event.
“The Cenotaph was not the right location especially during the two week period (Oct. 31 - Nov .11) set aside to Honour Soldiers/Veterans,” wrote one outraged poster. “There is no way that you can compare what a soldier and his/her family have experienced to an unborn child.”
Another said he was so angry he put a call into the RCMP.
“I called the RCMP to talk to them. Any protesters in Canada
have to apply for a permit to pro-test. They did not have one,” he fumed, adding: “The only thing useful that they did that day was aerate the lawn around the ceno-taph with their flags.”
One of the organizers Mike Schouten said it was more educa-tional than a protest.
“It was a unique way to get attention, but not offensive,” he suggested since their literature didn’t have any horrifying graph-ics.
“And there will always be people who do not want to see this” type of display, adding the point was there is no legislation in Canada protecting the rights of the unborn.”

More than 20 per cent of students who start school in Chilliwack, fail to graduate within the pre-scribed time. Improvements have been made over the past few years, but Chilliwack’s completion rate remains below the provincial aver-age.
In our ongoing series on election issues, The Progress asked trustee candidates what they would do to improve completion rates in the district.
Here is a synopsis of what candi-dates who responded to our ques-tion had to say. (Their complete responses can be found in the Q&A section under the Election 2014 tab at www.theprogress.com.)
For many candidates, success at the secondary level must begin early. By Grade 7 as many as 40 per cent of students lack suffi-cient reading skills to succeed, said Heather Maahs. “We can start
to improve reading – and the grad-uation rate – by reinstating the resource program that was geared for students between grades 4 and 6,” she suggested.
Silvia Dyck argued that improved graduation rates must begin in kindergarten. The first four years of school are critical to building a foundation of literacy and numeracy that can be fortified in each succeeding year. Without that foundation, the result is frus-tration and eventually disengage-ment, she said.
The problem, said Martha Wiens, is that too many students are not taught the basics early on and are unprepared. “They have been denied the opportunity, to be taught what is expected as a requirement for high school com-pletion,” she said.
While reading is critical to suc-cess, Walt Krahn agreed, so is stu-
dent engagement. He suggested each student be assigned an advi-sor to connect with weekly for support and encouragement. They need opportunities to see their education has relevance, he said.
John-Henry Harter agreed, but said that won’t happen if schools are not properly funded. For suc-cess to occur, teachers and their students need the support of edu-cation assistants, teacher libraries and counsellors.
“The issue of funding, comple-tion, achievement, class size and composition are interrelated,” he said. “We need to ensure equitable learning conditions for all students to keep them engaged and work-ing towards completion.”
That point was echoed by Barry Neufeld. Mentoring is an impor-tant contributor to student suc-cess, he said. However, “With the current funding shortage and low
morale of teachers, especially at the secondary level, we simply don’t have enough employees to form meaningful individual rela-tionships with students who are getting dis-couraged.”
Karen Jarvis agreed: “While lack of funding is a chronic problem with student support, the need for relation-ship building can go a long way,” she said.
Ben Besler said suc-cess will come through a more per-sonalized approach. “ I believe that we can encourage more students to graduate by continuing to allow our schools to diversify for more personalized education,” he said.
That’s particularly true for aboriginal students, said Dan Coulter. “If aboriginal students see their culture valued and reflected
in their schools, completion rates will surely rise,” he argued.
Paul McManus said that before the district arrives at a solution, it
must clearly under-stand the source of the problem and understand why so many students are leaving school.
Rob Stelmaschuk, meanwhile, had a more practical approach: “Offer the students techni-
cal vocational training for the last three years of school, 10-12. This would give them the skills to fit right into the workforce and give them a future and a reason to com-plete there schooling,” he said.

Flu season may be early this yearTom FletcherBlack Press
It’s a good year to get a shot of influenza vac-cine early, says Provincial Health Officer Dr. Perry Kendall.
“We’re already start-ing to see some influenza activity around the prov-ince, which suggests that this flu season may be coming earlier than past flu seasons,” Kendall said this week.
Kendall joined Health Minister Terry Lake and other MLAs who rolled up their sleeves to receive their annual flu shots at the B.C. legislature.
Lake said flu vaccina-tion is on the upswing in B.C., with last year setting a record for doses of vac-cine administered. That includes 76 per cent of health care workers, who are now required to get vaccinated or wear a mask in patient care areas dur-ing the winter flu season.
Contrary to popular mis-conceptions about “stom-ach flu” or “24-hour flu,” influenza is a severe respi-
ratory disorder caused by a group of viruses that cir-culate globally.
The Public Health Agency of Canada esti-mates that 3,500 people per year die of complications from influenza, particu-larly seniors and people with underlying conditions such as asthma. There are more flu-related fatalities than from all other vac-cine-prevented diseases combined.
Flu shots can be obtained from doctors’ offices, pharmacies and public health facilities. To find the nearest flu shot clinic, call HealthLink BC at 8-1-1 or visit the influ-enza clinic finder at www.immunizebc.ca/clinics/flu.
Flu shots are free in B.C. for all children between six months and five years of age, seniors 65 and over, pregnant women, aborigi-nal people, anyone with a chronic health condition or compromised immune system and those who live with or plan to visit a per-son with high risk of com-plications.

clear that they are want-ing to make a differ-ence and be involved. “The University of the Fraser Valley is large untapped resource for potentially increasing youth engagement in municipal politics,” said Harder.
Incumbent Jason Lum said he’d like to see a “youth advisory committee” set up at city hall.
“With declining voter turnouts, it is clear that we must work harder to educate, engage, and include a new gen-eration of voters in the decision making pro-
cess. “What better way
than to learn hands-on about the roles and responsibilities of Local Government than having a direct say in some of the recommen-dations to Mayor and Council.
Incumbent Chuck Stam went out a snow removal limb to solve the problem of snow clogged roads.
“My ‘out of the box’ idea is more of a back to the basics, citizen engagement idea relat-ing to heavy snow fall events,” Stam said. “The concept is city would pre-qualify and contract with owners of
heavy equipment and farm implements to be available and ready when called upon to remove the snow from pre-determined third and fourth priority roads.
“This would free up our equipment and operators to remain focused on our first and second priority roads and provide safer pas-sage to our less trav-elled neighborhoods and country roads.”
Candidate Phillip Maxwell said he’ll be active on social media, and in person, to keep people informed, and to counter the idea that council is unreachable.
“With the social media craze, people have forgotten how to talk to each other. I want to bring this crazy idea of talking to some-one face to face back.
“I will attend pub-lic events, have open forums and talk to local business owners to ensure there is a ‘personal touch’ to my seat on council,” said Maxwell.
Candidate Phill Bruce is also out to “engage” folks.
“My Out of the Box idea is to continually engage people through-out my term to find out what the real issues and concerns are from the people in the street to the farmers in the field, facilitate from the people of Chilliwack how to fix there issues and concerns and how to make this commu-nity better,” said Bruce.
Candidate Michael Kha’s idea is a city council meeting that goes mobile to take the issues directly to the people.
“We could call this initiative the ‘Road Show’ and let everyone be comfortable in their own environment while learning about how the city works. I believe that if we can bring city hall to ‘people’ more people would be inter-ested in politics, and be more engaged with the
current issues.”Getting more
Chilliwackians out to vote, and getting key info out to them, through accountabil-ity and transparency seemed to be the over-arching theme for sev-eral people.
Candidate Brenda Currie said she would like to see “ v o t i n g promoted on a con-t i n u o u s b a s i s , ” such as going out to schools and edu-cating the youth to vote, “and not just at election time. I feel getting more citi-zens involved will allow them to have more input.”
Candidate Richard Williams said his “top priority” is “strengthen-ing the foundations” of public engagement.
“For instance; we must start making all public (non-council) meetings/forums part of the public record like council meet-ings. Social media and other online forums (as examples) must become an integrated part of ‘regular coun-cil’ meetings as well as the other public meet-ings. Processes like the rezoning applications can also be enhanced
with more online engagement.”
Candidate Brigida Crosbie vowed to “lis-ten” to the people.
“Letting the people know and feel confi-dent that their issues and their voice have been heard,” she said. “To be more open and honest about what is
happening in our City and to stop p r e t e n d -ing that Chilliwack d o e s n ’ t have the s a m e issues as any other
City and to acknowl-edge them and be pro-active in dealing with these issues.”
Being approachable was Chris Kloot’s idea, adding: “I want people to feel they matter, because they do! I want to hear people’s visions, dreams and wants for this community.”
Incumbent Sue Attrill praised the amazing staff team, with a wealth of knowl-edge and experience, and they were part of her idea.
“I would like to see monthly seminars offered to the public on any number of topics. It can sometimes be difficult for citizens to understand our zoning for example.”
Candidate Dick Harrington said the answer is a city-run Wi-Fi network for the community, pat-terned after one in Fredericton, NB that began in 1998, with an initial investment of $65,000.
“That investment was paid back in full. The non-profit agency that runs it is owned by the city, with the city being the sole share-holder. The taxpayer contributes nothing into the costs.
“We need such a ser-vice for Chilliwack and I will push for this when I get elected to Council,” said Harrington. “Let’s work together to make Chilliwack the Internet capital of British Columbia.”
For candidate Sam Waddington it’s bol-stering tourism.
“We have an oppor-tunity to build a tour-ism industry here that reflects our position in the Fraser Valley as the best place to get outside and enjoy the great outdoors. If we capitalize on this oppor-tunity there are vast economic benefits that await us in this sector, and tourism could fea-sibly become a corner-stone to Chilliwack’s economy in the years to come.”

Ann Davis Transition Society of Chilliwack was one of 17 recipients of a crime prevention award presented by B.C. Attorney General and Minister of Justice, Suzanne Anton in Burnaby last weekend.
The awards go to individuals and orga-nizations for their “courage to stand up to crime,” and for showing exemplary leadership in commu-nity safety and crime prevention.
ADTS execu-
tive director Patti MacAhonic said she “had the pleasure and honour” of accepting a Ministry of Justice and Crime Prevention Award on behalf of the local organization.
ADTS has exem-plified the crime pre-vention values in Chilliwack for three decades, “by offering shelter and support to women and children leaving abusive situa-tions. ADTS provided services to more than 2,600 clients last year, 600 of whom were chil-dren.”
The highest honour
of the day, the Anthony J. Hulme Award of Distinction, went to Terrance (Terr y) Moist of Campbell River for his 36 years of volunteer work with at-risk youth and the John Howard Society of North Island.
The awards were presented during Crime Prevention Week, Nov. 1-7.
For more on the win-ners www.newsroom.gov.bc.ca/2014/10/the-people-in-your-neigh-
bourhood-bcs-award-winning-crime-fighters.html. Throughout the week, the BC Crime Prevention Association will be issuing crime prevention tips, on youth gang prevention, auto crime prevention, safety on public transit, preventing the sexual exploitation of children and youth, prevent-ing violence against women, preventing re-victimization, and oth-ers.

Dental implants are changing the way people live. They are designed to provide a foundation for replacement teeth that look, feel, and function like natural teeth. The person who has lost teeth regains the ability to eat virtually anything, knowing that teeth appear natural and that facial contours will be preserved. The implants themselves are tiny titanium posts that are surgically placed into the jawbone where teeth are missing. these metal anchors act as tooth root substitutes.
The bone bonds with the titanium, creating a strong foundation for artifi cial teeth.Small posts that protrude through the gums are then attached to the implant. These posts provide stable anchors for artifi cial replacement teeth.
DENTAL IMPLANTS
Implants also help preserve facial
structure, preventing bone deterioration that occurs when teeth are missing.

NewsHealth officer departs
Fraser Health’s Chief Medical Health Officer Dr. Paul Van Buynder has left Canada to return to his native Australia.
Van Buynder had been prominent in several health-related issues. He appeared before an angry Chilliwack crowd when Fraser Health ordered the city to begin chlorinating its water.
As chief medical health officer, he also repeat-edly urged Port Metro Vancouver to conduct a full health impact assessment into the risks from coal dust and other impacts from a proposal for a coal transfer terminal in Surrey that would see more coal trains move through White Rock and South Surrey, and send barges down the Fraser River. He criticized the research that was carried out ahead of the port’s decision to approve the project.
Dr. Victoria Lee is serving as interim chief medi-cal health officer while the health region searches for a replacement.
Van Buynder came to B.C. from New Brunswick, where he held a senior public health post. He’s now living in Gold Coast, southeastern Australia.
Getting the event posted on the city’s online events’ page, led them to believe they had permission for the dis-play, said Schouten, who spoke to The Progress Monday.
The flags were gone by 1 p.m. Saturday after-noon. RCMP attended the downtown location near the Museum after getting calls saying the protest did not have a permit.
City of Chilliwack officials have stated in response, due to the misunderstanding, they will not fine the group ultimately.
Placing flags on the civic property without permission is consid-ered a contravention of the Parks, Recreation and Culture Bylaw. Under this bylaw, the group would need to obtain written approval. Placing a flag or sign in contravention of this bylaw typically carries a penalty of $100 per sign.
“When Operations staff inspected the prop-
erty on Saturday after-noon it was free from gar-bage, flags and damage,” stated City of Chilliwack communications official Jamie Leggatt. “From what we understand the group did not impede traffic or movement into the Museum.”
“Due to the misunder-standing City staff will not fine the organizers and will look into ways to ensure this type of confusion does not hap-
pen again.”It was not the content
of the protest, it was the timing and the location, and veterans and sol-diers were upset by it, according to one online poster.
“I’m not saying that the protest or demon-stration was wrong - just the timing and location of it,” he wrote, address-ing the group directly. “Please in future be thoughtful towards oth-
ers as well. “And if you think that
you didn’t cause much disturbance, you should have been flies on the walls in the local service clubs, ie. ANAVETS, Royal Canadian Legion, Army and Navy club - the people there were shocked and very disap-pointed in the lack of respect for the soldiers/veterans.”

A Chilliwack RCMP officer fired one shot at a fleeing car thief last week, but was unable to make him stop.
Police are now search-ing for two men who they say stole a 1981 Porsche and led the RCMP on a wild chase through the community.
The incident began at around 2:20 p.m. on Thursday when police identified a car that had been featured on the RCMP’s daily stolen vehicle list.
An unmarked police vehicle was able to get close enough to obtain a licence plate number from the car and confirm it was indeed stolen.
Police converged on the area of Chilliwack River Road and McGuire Road where the vehicle was last seen traveling at a high rate of speed. The vehicle stopped at a roadblock on McGuire Road. But when a police officer approached it, it allegedly drove at the police officer, who fired his service pistol once towards the driver.
The vehicle then fled the area.
The member involved was not injured.
The Porsche then drove over a spike belt that had been deployed on Knight Road, but didn’t stop.
Police lost sight of the vehicle, which was recovered shortly there-after unoccupied on Loring Avenue.
Witnesses in the area told police that they saw two males running from the stolen Porsche. Witnesses state they did not appear to be injured.
Members of the Chilliwack RCMP, Chilliwack RCMP’s
Crime Reduction Unit and a member of the Integrated Police Dog Service thoroughly searched the area for the suspects but were unable to locate them.
Chilliwack RCMP are continuing their inves-tigation and are asking anyone who may have any information about the stolen vehicle’s occupants to give them a call at (604)792-4611 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

Where the smart money isChilliwack council candidates were
asked last week what they would do to encourage economic growth in the com-munity.
Their responses were interesting. (You can find them in our Q&A section under the Election 2014 tab at www.theprogress.com.)
But what was more interesting was what they didn’t say.
None of the 17 candidates mentioned education as a potential economic driver for Chilliwack.
That’s curious because a knowledge-based economy offers high-paying careers, it’s clean, and it delivers a mul-titude of spinoff benefits.
And, we’ve got a head start.Chilliwack is home to Canada
Education Park – a sprawling 200-acre campus that already has some pretty impressive tenants.
The University of the Fraser Valley, the Justice Institute of BC, Canada Border Services and the RCMP all have a home there.
But the park is far from complete. UFV alone has a 30-year buildout plan that will eventually bring 7,000 full-time equiva-lent students to Chilliwack. That’s a 350 per cent increase from current levels.
The Pacific Regional Training Centre, meanwhile, is already drawing global attention for what it does. On any given
day there could be as many as 350 people on site, either teaching the latest in pub-lic safety, or learning from skilled and highly trained educators. The overall payroll is around $8.5 million.
Currently under construction is a new state-of-the-art indoor firing range that represents an investment of nearly $19 million.
And there’s more to come: Overall student population at Canada Education Park is expected to climb to 18,470 stu-dents by 2020.
Making that happen will take talent-ed trades people to build new facilities, instructors and support staff to deliver programs, and off-site businesses to pro-vide everything from meals and accom-modations, to supplies.
But it will also take political support.We cannot assume the park will reach
its full potential if local government is apathetic or uncommitted.
Knowledge-based economies are the key to future growth. In an increasingly complex world, education and training are critical to success.
Chilliwack has the opportunity to deliver those skills. But we need a local government that not only understands the importance of that potential, but has an unrelenting drive and vision to make it happen.

RAESIDE
VICTORIA – The climate debate, which all left-thinking people insist is over, has erupt-ed in the B.C. legislature over our nascent liquefied natural gas industry.
Chilliwack-Hope B.C. Liberal MLA Laurie Throness heated things up by announcing that he’s “agnostic” on the subject of human-caused global warm-ing. The religious terminology is intentional, he said, because this is how climate change is currently discussed – deniers, believers and so on.
Throness mentioned the inflat-ed elephant in the room, 18 years with little or no average global surface temperature rise, even as greenhouse gas emissions keep rising around the world.
Needless to say, Green Party MLA and climate scientist Andrew Weaver was aghast at this her-
esy. And NDP MLAs lined up behind former Sierra Club high priest George Heyman to ridicule Throness, inadvertently proving
his point about their rather nasty religious zeal.
I’m also skep-tical on global warming, as regu-lar readers will know, and so are many voting adults in Canada and else-where. And I agree with Throness’
main point that B.C. shouldn’t sac-rifice its energy economy while the jury is still out.
Most politicians who presume to decide the fate of this vital and threatened industry have at best visited a well or plant site, and media information about the industry is often from question-
able protesters. So today I’d like to provide some background on the natural gas industry, as someone who grew up with it and worked in it in northeastern B.C.
Natural gas is mostly methane, the main ingredient in farts. It is many times more potent than carbon dioxide as a heat-trapping gas in the atmosphere, which is one reason it is often flared rather than vented if it isn’t captured for use as fuel.
Raw natural gas may contain carbon dioxide, a key plant food and component of exhaled breath that has been rebranded as pol-lution. Gas from the Horn River Basin, one of B.C.’s largest deep shale formations, contains 10 per cent or more CO2, more than con-ventional gas.
B.C.’s most lucrative gas field is the Montney shale around Fort St. John, which contains nearly CO2-
free gas as well as light petroleum liquids.
(This is similar to the Bakken shale in North Dakota, where American roughnecks continue to burn off vast amounts of gas to get at the more valuable light liquids. Oddly, President Barack Obama and former Canadian singer Neil Young don’t notice this.)
Weaver and the NDP are cor-rect in their main objection, which is that the B.C. government’s new limits on CO2 from LNG produc-tion are a sham. As much as 70 per cent of the total greenhouse gas emissions from the gas indus-try occur before the LNG stage, which is the only thing the new rules regulate.
CO2 that comes up with gas is extracted and vented. A gov-ernment-subsidized pilot proj-ect to capture and store CO2 at Spectra Energy’s operations at
Fort Nelson seems to be going nowhere. Restricting LNG-related emissions is mostly a cosmetic gesture.
Environment Minister Mary Polak correctly notes that gas producers pay carbon tax. Yes, but only on the fuel they use, not “process emissions” such as flar-ing. Big LNG proponents plan to burn more gas to compress and cool LNG, and their greenhouse gas emissions beyond a certain limit will force them to buy carbon offsets or pay into a technology fund.
If LNG investment isn’t scared away by protests and piled-on taxes, it surely means B.C.’s greenhouse gas reduction targets are history. The question now is how much that actually matters.

Gas prices draw suspicionThose who set and manipu-
late our gasoline prices are as crooked as pigs’ tails. You know it, I know it — everyone knows it. However, I guess I should say “appear” to be as crooked as pigs’ tails to avoid lawsuits because as Marc Antony said about the Roman senators who bumped off Julius Caesar: “For they are all honourable men.”
If you have been on this planet over the past few weeks you know that oil prices are in freefall with no end in sight. If you have seen what you’re pay-ing at the gasoline pumps here in good old Chilliwack over a couple of weeks you will have seen the price drop to 110.9 before leaping back to 118.9 for a week then dropping again to 112.9 then regurgitation back up to 118.9. But the price of oil is still dropping. Am I missing something here?
Once upon a time we were told by “those who know about these
things” (slight sarcasm there) that gasoline prices would come down as oil prices dropped but they would have to wait until the tanks were emptied of the high-er priced stuff. That rationale seems more like a fairy tale gone bad. In fact we haven’t even heard about the link between oil and gas for months if not a couple of years.
And the reason we get now? Nothing, silence, zipped lips. Just like a sign that hung in my office when I was gainfully (sort of) employed: “Reason? There is no reason. It’s company policy!”
We’re being duped, gulled, misled, deceived, ripped off —pick your own synonym for being lied to. Mind you, perhaps I’m being a bit harsh. After all, no one from the oil or gasoline industry nor, of course, govern-ment, has even bothered to give a reason for the six cent jumps per litre every once in a while.
A cone of silence has descend-
ed over those who determine these things.
Could it possibly be because they are all vacuuming huge profits from our pockets. When we pay more they make more. And after all, isn’t it our role in life to give these captains (or colonels) of industry and our political masters a better life with high salaries, stupidly astronomi-cal bonuses and pensions that go beyond the pale?
Fascinating the prices all rise and fall the same day. Not that it’s a monopoly of course, because, as we know, monopolies are ille-gal, and after all, “they are all honourable men.”
No reason for what they’re doing except greed. Plus the fact that we polite, forelock tug-ging Canadians accept it with a shrug of the shoulders, a sigh, and a quiet little “what can you do?” Which means nothing will change.

Hockey too expensive for familiesI just watched a
commercial where a young boy was look-ing for a job to play hockey. When I was a youth it was a burden for my parents for my brothers and I to play hockey, but we made it.
When my son was young it was expen-sive, but fortunately our income was such that we could afford it.
How do people of moderate incomes pay for their children to play? Are not the are-nas owned by the city
or province?Why are our taxes
that pay for these things not used to alle-viate the costs to the people? Whatever hap-pened to that saying “No child left behind?”
If the kids didn’t play hockey the city
would have excellent buildings to store their trucks and the kids would be on the street doing who knows what.
I just don’t know anymore.

Stand up for marine conservation areaI would like to invite those
running for local elections to consider supporting the fed-eral/BC proposal for a south-ern Strait of Georgia National Marine Conservation Area.
In 2010 the Union of BC Municipalities passed a motion urging senior levels of govern-ment to declare this NMCA for the region’s benefit. To our shame Canada, with the longest coastline in the world, has only managed to protect one per cent of our marine areas. We can and should do better, start-ing right here.
I would urge you then to get behind this National Marine Conservation Area designa-tion, not only because it is the responsible thing to do but because it is part of manag-ing the larger region for the common interest of all British Columbians and Canadians.
The building blocks of a strong economy, resilient fish-eries, and diverse coastal com-munities could be put in place and sustained by supporting this NMCA proposal. Any way you look at it, it’s time to pro-tect and revitalize the coastal
waters and shores of the inner Salish Sea.
As leaders in our communi-ties I encourage you to take a strong stand and to voice your support for a southern Strait of Georgia National Marine Conservation Area. And I would also invite all residents of our region to ask their candi-dates about marine and coastal protection, and how this will further jobs and economic ben-efits for us all.

FROM THE DESK OF EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR FIENY VAN DEN BOOMThe Chilliwack Chamber of Commerce is the
“voice of business” and October was Small Business Month. Did you know there are approximately $382,000 businesses in BC, and about 98% are considered “Small Business” (fewer than 50 employees)? These Small Businesses employ almost 1.1Million people.
The Canadian Manufacturers & Exporters (CME) also designated October as “Manufacturing Month.” We celebrated our local manufacturers by hosting , for the very fi rst time in Chilliwack, a Manufacturing Tour in conjunction with CME. Mayor Sharon Gaetz welcomed everyone and sent us off to what promised to be a great day. We left from City Hall with a full bus and visited Tycrop, IMW, had lunch at UFV Trades & Technology Centre followed by a tour through this amazing facility, and after lunch we visited Ironside and Soprema. We were all blown away by the quality of our local manufacturing facilities. They are all producing
innovative products for both national, and many international markets. It truly was an eye opening experience and we want to thank all of them for this great opportunity to look inside “the kitchen” of our local manufacturers.
Of course we all know there is a municipal election on November 15, and we want to encourage everyone to get out and vote! Our All Council Candidates Luncheon last week was so well attended that we ran out of space.

Matt Lowen performs tunes from his new CD Last Year’s Leaves at a release party at Tractorgrease Café on Nov. 8. LEIGH CULPIN PHOTO
Jennifer FeinbergThe Progress
Singer-songwriter Matt Lowen’s explores some poignant territory on his brand-new CD, Last Year’s Leaves.
The CD release party is at Tractorgrease Café on Chilliwack Lake Road on Saturday, Nov. 8.
Lowen says the music is a “blend of zen, bluegrass and americana,” and it took almost two years to write.
The album was recorded at Spiderlodge Studios in Chilliwack last summer.
“It’s the music of change, of transi-tion, of life as we live it,” he wrote, adding growth and change were major themes.
The CD is overflowing with “an abun-dance of image & song as it explores the cyclical nature of growth & decay, love & loss, and life & death.”
Lowen penned 50 tunes, mostly in his home studio, and then winnowed them down to seven for the album.
“I tried to make it as precise and spare as possible.”
The CSS grad said he used “Occam’s Razor” to take out everything unneces-sary in the writing stage.
The recording turned out to be an organic and enjoyable labour of love when they laid down tracks at Spiderlodge, in the shadow of Little Mountain in Chilliwack.
“From the hummingbirds buzzing over our heads in the afternoons, to the dogs curled up beneath our feet in the evenings, to the moon shining through the window as it rose over Mt. Cheam, the record began to reflect the natural setting it was born out of,” Lowen said.
A road trip out of Idaho brought friends and musicians, Renee and Jason Homey, to to lay down the fiddle track
on ‘Never Goodbye.’It was Genge on guitar, dobro, and
bass, and Lowen on piano, mandolin, banjo, harmonica, and guitar.
“We have kind of a system and can play almost every instrument,” Lowen offered.
There’s an old-world sensibility to the acoustic recording, but delivered with a fresh, contemporary edge.
Lowen says it’s “kind of like Bluegrass in a graveyard on a Thursday after-noon.”
For the CD party on Nov. 8, the Spiderlodge trio will open the show with Rick Genge, Lori Paul and Clay Thornton.
Lowen’s dad, Brian Lowen, will be on bass.
“I usually play alone, so it’s nice to have a band for that night.”
It was an adventure shooting the music video, with Leigh Culpin, who
also did his cover art. They filmed some of it in the lower bowl section of Mt. Cheam, but then hiked up to the top, with backpacks and headlamps, to get the iconic sunset shots. Lowen ended up heading down the mountain, racing the sun, which was setting quickly.
“It was quite a day.”The shots were incredible.“But I was freezing to death. We
filmed the last shots as the sun went down, which is cool, but now it’s dark and we’re on a mountain. So I pretty much had to run back down.”
The police were waiting at the bot-tom, since he hadn’t managed to return home by sunset as promised. But at least they were all safe.
“I guess necessity was the mother of fitness in this case.
“I didn’t want to spend the night on the mountain. So that ended a day of suffering and enlightenment.”
Matt Lowen takes his music to new heights

Buying Real Estate and the Internet!The Internet has produced great changes in the real estate
business. Prospective buyers in Chilliwack can surf the web for a home in their community or another province in the privacy of their home. Will the Internet ever replace the services of a professional REALTOR®? The answer to that question is “never!’’
Consumers that are Internet savvy can now do a lot of their own leg work before they hire a professional to assist them.
REALTORS® advertising their listings often include a website or an MLS number which potential purchasers can use to access video tours, view more photos and additional information on their listings through the internet. This certainly can help you refine your prospect list to include or exclude homes, however although some may say “a picture is worth a 1000 words”, photos or videos cannot convey the emotional or physical experience obtained by a personal viewing with your REALTOR®.
All that being said, another reason why the Internet will never make REALTORS® obsolete is that REALTORS® provide indispensable services to their clients. They help sellers prepare their home for sale, network with other REALTORS® to match buyers and sellers, educate clients about the local market trends, help them negotiate the best deal, assist them in securing financing, schedule inspections and coordinate the closing with all the key players. One of the REALTOR’S® most important responsibilities is to guide the buyer or seller through the maze of legal forms that are required for the purchase or sale of a home. All of these services need special and personalized attention.
The personal attention you get when using a REALTOR® can never be replaced by a web page. Many changes can occur in a real estate transaction. This is where having a professional to handle the sale of your home makes a big difference. Real estate professionals view such changes as challenges, rather than problems. Many potential problems are predictable, but their consequences can be minimized by anticipating them. REALTORS® draw on their experience and the experience of their colleagues to ensure a successful closing for the buyers and sellers.
Today’s successful real estate agent is a multi-faceted professional who is computer savvy, a marketing innovator, a skilled negotiator, and a good communicator.
REALTORS® must also have high ethical standards, dedication, and patience to work well with people in stressful situations. Real estate is still a people-oriented business where personal contact cannot be replaced with a web page.
Working in the fi nancial industry for 25 years has opened many doors for me as a REALTOR® with my past/present clients and friends.
As a resident and professional living in the Chilliwack area since 1987, I have always believed in going the extra mile for my customers. Both honest, ethical and hard working, you can count on me for none other than friendly and effi cient service.
For those who I am acquainted and those I have yet to be...allow my enthusiasm and zeal to work for you. With me “SERVICE IS KEY”. Whether considering your fi rst or last home, upsizing or downsizing lets make your dreams come true together.
Dependably Yours,
Laura

Chilliwack is not my hometown, but it feels like it is. I was born in Tisdale, Saskatchewan and spent most of my growing up on a dairy farm. After graduation I moved to Calgary for 15 years, then my husband was transferred to the coast and we made our home in Surrey.
I moved out here as a single mom with my three kids almost 12 years ago. We loved Chilliwack immediately and my family has had a very happy life here.
So I feel like I’m well qualifi ed to work with new people coming to the area, as well as those who have been here forever, because I believe in this city. I think I’ve found a little piece of paradise and the wisest people know this to be true. Give me a call anytime for your complimentary market evaluation or if you know someone moving to town, pass along my name, because Chilliwack is my hometown now.

The Chilliwack Rotary Club encourages camaraderie in a unique, non-verbal way: The Rotations, the Club’s resident musical combo, is a permanent ingredient of every Friday Rotary Lunch meeting, providing an ambience that encourages fellowship and interaction between club members and guests. Joanne Hankey, who plays keyboard with The Rotations, feels the music that she and her fellow musicians provide turns those meetings into events - a signifi cant distinction. Music is a great relaxant and equalizer, allowing attendees to reach out and get to know each other. Music crosses boundaries and encourages connectedness. It is universal and causes people to smile. Arriving Rotarians and their guests are met each Friday not only by Rotary greeters but by a pleasant background of musical accompaniment. The group, however, is not limited to providing background music: Each Friday lunch meeting features a sing-along period, where everyone is encouraged to join in and sing a medley of songs for which The Rotations provide accompaniment. The composition of the group is relatively fl uid, often featuring guest performers, as is the eclectic musical content: featuring popular fare, Jazz, and old favourites. However, there is a core of regular musicians who have formed the backbone of the group for many years.The Chilliwack Rotary Club is fortunate to contain such an accomplished group of performers. And their service through music to their fellow Rotarians refl ects the values contained in the Rotary Service Above Self motto and the philanthropic service provided locally and internationally by our organization.If you are interested in exploring the concept of Service Above Self, in a convivial setting with like-minded individuals, we would be pleased to hear from you. Contact us at [email protected] or visit our website atwww.chilliwackrotaryclub.ca also lookout for club members wearing our Rotary lapel pin, they will be happy to answer any questions you may have.

“Is it normal to experience urinary incontinence after childbirth or with aging?”
Many women believe that leaking is part of normal life and that wearing pads or having surgery are the only options. As an experienced pelvic floor physiotherapist I can assure you that it is not normal and that there is another answer. 80% of women who work with a qualified pelvic floor therapist experience improvement in their symptoms.

What is Urinary Incontinence?
Urinary incontinence is the involuntary leakage of urine and/or fecal matter. It is a common and distressing condition that adversely affects an individual’s quality of life. It is often associated with changes in the pelvic floor muscles and affects women more often than men. Some of the contributing factors in women are childbirth and menopause. Men can experience incontinence after prostate surgery or radiation. There is an increased risk of becoming incontinent with age but incontinence can affect individuals of all ages and it is not a normal nor acceptable part of aging.
What is the cause?
Urinary incontinence is not a disease but a symptom. It can be caused by everyday habits and life events. In most cases, incontinence results from weakened or ineffective pelvic floor muscles. These muscles weaken with pregnancy, childbirth, age, menopause and hysterectomy in women, enlarged prostate or prostate cancer along with age in men. Other risk factors include chronic constipation with straining, heavy repetitive work and aggressive fitness programs that include high impact and/or heavy weight lifting.
What are the symptoms?
There are 3 types of incontinence. Stress incontinence is involuntary loss of urine when you laugh, sneeze, run, change position or exert physical effort. Many individuals report that it is late in their run when they experience stress incontinence. Urge incontinence results in difficulty getting to the bathroom in time and/or a feeling of having to get to the bathroom right away with little output once there or a frequent need to urinate. Mixed incontinence is a mixture of stress and urge incontinence.
What can be done?
Despite very effective advertising regarding “Light Bladder Leakage” or “LBL”, there are other solutions besides wearing a pad to absorb the leakage. Pelvic floor therapy can help 80% of individuals with incontinence. It consists of more than just standard Kegel exercises. Research has shown that 75% of individuals are doing their Kegel exercises incorrectly and other factors such as proper core stability in the abdominal muscles can impact the functioning of the pelvic floor. I use Real-Time Ultrasound Imaging (RTUS) to visualize the muscles of the abdomen and pelvis as they contract and help you maximize the function of both muscle groups. RTUS helps you see exactly what you are contracting so that you can improve your muscle function and control incontinence. Early treatment of incontinence can also help to prevent conditions such as pelvic organ prolapse where the bladder, uterus or rectum drops and may require surgery.
Free Public Information Session - November 18, 2014 @ 7 p.m. at the Leisure Centre Clinic
Learn more about incontinence, contributing factors, current research and treatment options as well as the
resources Fraser Valley Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation Centre has to offer. A demonstration of RTUS will be done.

HUB International Theatre plays host to the King of Canadian radio — R ed Robinson, living legend and one of Vancouver’s first-ever rock and roll DJs.
He’ll bring the audi-ence along for the ride as he relives six decades of rock and roll history in On The Air, hitting HUB International Theatre in
the Chilliwack Cultural Centre on November 9.
And since you can never have too many top-notch radio person-alities on stage, Rick Cluff joins Red as On
the Air’s cohost. Rick has hosted CBC Radio’s Early Edition for more than 15 years, covering a variety of news, sports and entertainment. He’s reported on events
from the South Pacific to the Arctic Circle, and just like Red Robinson, he’s seen his fair share of radio history.
The performance is a mix of musical revue,
variety show, live con-cert, and time machine. As Red and Rick talk shop and share their stories of the original rock and roll radio days, tribute artists The Hot
Mammas and Michael Sicoly will bring the well-loved works of The Andrews Sisters, The Beatles, Dean Martin, Louis Armstrong, and Darlene Love to life—amongst so many more!
“It’s a really nostalgic trip into the past and how things used to be,” Red says. “But we don’t rot in a rut with it—we add flavour to it and update it. As I used to do with my radio show, and still do, I try to pick things that will be recognized by the audi-ence.”
This stroll down musical memory lane is bound to spark more than a few fond remembrances in the audience—not to men-tion in Rick and Red. The pair will share their memories of watching radio grow and evolve over the last sixty years, and there’s no shortage of stories to go around. After all, Red started spinning hits on Vancouver’s CJOR while still in high school, and introduced both The Beatles and Elvis as well as a host of Canadian rockers such as Randy Bachman, Terry Jacks, and The Collectors.
“I’m old enough that I was around when radio was king,” Red says. “We’re tuning into the past. It’s a time machine.”
“We only do this show a couple of times a year,” he continues. “We’re all working pro-fessionally, so it’s hard to put this on more than three or four times a year—max. And this show in Chilliwack is the first time we’re tak-ing it out of town! You’re going to say, ‘Why in the heck haven’t I seen it before!’”
And the best part is bound to surprise—a handful of “commer-cial breaks” sprinkled throughout the show bring vintage commer-cials back to life, with hilarious results.
Get your tickets today by calling the box office at 604-392-SHOW (7469) or online at chill-iwackculturalcentre.ca! Tickets are $35 for adults, $30 for students, and $32 for seniors. This show has sold out seven times since it hit the stage, so don’t miss out on the experience in its inaugural Chilliwack visit.

Saturday, November 159 am – 5 pm - Show Open to Public
One of the major fundrais-ers that keeps volunteer safety personnel operating on local mountains occurs Nov. 15-16 in Abbotsford.
The annual Canadian Ski Patrol's (CSP) Winter Extreme Ski Show and Swap sees about 10,000 pieces of ski and snowboard equipment valued at approximately $1 million on consignment at the Ag-Rec building, selling for signifi cant savings over new, said Denis Dion, swap manager.
"You can completely outfi t yourself or your family mem-bers for under $100," he said. Everything from boots to boards will be on hand, and each piece is safety inspected. Any helmets for sale are brand new.
"We have extreme selection and extreme pricing."
Nearly 95 per cent of the equipment is still new – just last year's models.
"We don't know exactly how much we'll be getting until the
vendors show up," he added.The swap has been run-
ning since the late 1970s, said Dion, who took on the event chair position in 1994. From its humble beginnings in a church basement, the swap grew and needed more space. They went from the basement to an audi-torium, then Tradex and now the Ag-Rec building.
Between the Abbotsford event, and a similar one in Vancouver, these fundraisers generate enough money – about $100,000 – to keep CSP volunteers on the slopes in locales such as Hemlock, Man-ning and Seymour, where they are often the fi rst responders to anyone who has a mishap while skiing inbounds.

Every year the Chilliwack Symphony Orchestra performs a special concert that puts the spotlight on promising students of the piano.
Piano Extravaganza will be presented by the CSO on Saturday, Nov. 8, with the return of cap-tivating Canadian guest pianist Ian Parker, and several young instru-mentalists from across the Fraser Valley.
An impressive 15 piano students, rang-ing in age from five to 16 years old, studying with members of the B.C. Registered Music
Teachers’ Association, will be tickling the ivories at the Cultural Centre.
They were chosen from among the 42 young musicians who auditioned for the show.
“We are excited to showcase these amaz-ing piano students,” says CSO music direc-tor Paula DeWit, who has specially arranged music for this perfor-mance to be played by the orchestra.
She started working on the arrangements immediately after the auditions in June and has just recently fin-ished the last one.
It took hours. But she loved it.
“It is a rare oppor-tunity for young piano players to play accom-panied by an orches-tra.”
They’re also start-ing a Side By Side pro-gram, said DeWit.
Five young orches-tral musicians will be joining the orchestra for the evening to sit alongside seasoned and professional players.
“We are thrilled to have younger musi-cians at this level per-form with us,” said DeWit.
This concert they’re
offering a special family price.
“So please bring the family and support live music in our commu-nity.”
The Chilliwack Symphony Orchestra “Piano Extravaganza” Nov. 8 at the Chilliwack Cultural Centre, 7:30 p.m. Tickets $25/15 from the Cultural Centre box office, by phone at 604-391-SHOW or online at www.chilliwackcultural-centre.ca

Red Robinson brings his show, On The Air, to the Chilliwack Cultural Centre with cohost
Operation Red Nose is gearing up with the help of dedicated volun-teers to make the roads safer in Chilliwack this holiday season.
From Nov. 28 to Dec. 31, 2014, the red vested
volunteers will be on the road to help people who feel unable to drive home safely in their own car.
The Kiwanis Club of Sardis is coordinat-ing the service again
this year, with the help of volunteers from the community. The service is by donation and 100 per cent of the funds are turned over to local youth and amateur sports organizations.
Each year, Operation Red Nose clients con-tribute $ 1.5 million to youth initiatives, from coast to coast.
This year Operation Red Nose is operating its 31st campaign in
Canada, and its 11th year in Chilliwack.
This year’s campaign theme, “This Season, Hand the Reins Over to Us,” encourages motor-ists who had one too many, who are tired, or
who are simply not able to drive their vehicle to call Operation Red Nose.
Last year, the ser-vice provided almost 700 safe rides home in Chilliwack, and over 56,000 volunteers pro-
vided over 80,000 rides in communities across Canada.
During this year’s campaign, the Operation Red Nose volunteers, headquartered in down-town Chilliwack, will be taking calls from party-goers with one goal in mind: to make roads and highways safer for everyone. The Operation Red Nose service is free, and is entirely provided by vol-unteers, and donations are always accepted.
Operation Red Nose counts on its numerous volunteers to provide safe rides to Canadian motorists during the month of December. Whether it is for one evening or for nine, for a couple of hours or for an entire night, Red Nose volunteers can choose the duration of their par-ticipation, whether they choose to volunteer on the road or at the local headquarters. It’s never too late to fill a volun-teer application form. Last year, almost 5,000 volunteers in British Columbia came out to enjoy a fun evening driv-ing people home safely. People brought along their co-workers, friends and family.
Teams of three include a designated driver of the client vehi-cle, a navigator to sup-port the driver, and a second driver who trails them with an escort vehicle. The client never leaves their own vehicle.
With the 2014 Operation Red Nose campaign set to start on Nov. 28, anyone interest-ed in volunteering can pick up an application form from the RCMP Detachment on Airport Road in Chilliwack. You can also get informa-tion and an application form on the Operation Red Nose national website, https://opera-t i o n n e z r o u g e . c o m /en. Volunteers fill out an application which includes a criminal record check. Returning volunteers must fill in a new application form each year. More infor-mation is available by emailing [email protected].
Operation Red Nose phone lines will be open from 9 p.m. to 3 a.m. on Fridays and Saturdays, Nov. 28, 29, Dec. 5, 6, 12, 13, 19, 20, and on New Year’s Eve, Wed., Dec. 31, by calling 604-393-3000.

For the first time this season, the BCHL’s Chilliwack Chiefs find themselves in a bit of a slump.
Back to back losses to Alberni Valley (4-2) and the Merritt Centennials (6-2) provide a test of char-acter for a team that has had just about everything go right so far.
Head coach Jason Tatarnic is eager to see how his boys respond as they head into a weekend home-and-home versus Langley.
“Adversity is not a bad thing, and being chal-lenged is always a good thing,” the bench boss said.
Injuries are the big-gest challenge Tatarnic faces, juggling his lineup
to account for the walking wounded.
Since losing defence-men Olivier Arseneau and Mark Esposito and for-ward Rory Bell to injury, the team has dressed a series of youthful call-ups.
While 15 and 16 year old kids like Kohen Olischefski, Darren Rizzolo, Jesse Lansdell and Jarret Tsyzka have fared well in relief, there’s no doubt Tatarnic prefers a healthy lineup.
“We should have Esposito and Brandon Potomak back, but will they be in 100 per cent game shape?” Tatarnic asked. “Probably not. But they will get thrown back into the fire and away they go.”
One thing Tatarnic will
emphasize in this week’s team meetings is disci-pline. Merritt broke open a 3-2 game with three third period goals, helped by a Chiefs penalty parade. Referees Mike Langin and Kevin Crowell dished out 17 power plays, seven for Chilliwack and 10 for the Cents.
“I thought we played a real good first period, but the amount of penal-ties from that point on took away the flow of the game and disrupted our forecheck and pressure,” Tatarnic said. “We’re not allowed to comment on the performance of offi-cials, but put it this way. I wasn’t happy with the game.”
The Chiefs host Langley Saturday at 7 p.m.

Tanner Geary led a youthful Sardis sec-ondary school senior boys’ cross-country team to a 10th place finish at last weekend’s provincials.
The year end race was held Saturday on a trail surrounding Victoria’s Juan de Fuca Recreation Centre.
The Falcons sent a team of seven, only one of them (Santana McKay) a Grade 12 athlete.
Geary, who is in Grade 11, led the crew with a time of 22:26.60, the 15th best indi-vidual mark.
Kristian Biela was next, finishing 40th with a time of 24:02.30.
Logan Clegg finished 48th at 24:25.06. Keegan Schram-Smith finished 70th at
25:09.25. Riley Clemons finished 109th at 26:52.25. McKay finished 121st at 27:39.50 and
Keegan Lightle finished 141st at 29:29.90.The placings of the top five Falcons
added up to 282 points, eight ahead of 11th place Penticton and 16 points behind ninth place West Vancouver.
The overall winner, Nanaimo’s Dover Bay, placed all five of their qualifiers inside the top 11, accumulating 37 points.
Dover Bay’s margin of victory over sec-
ond place Claremont (Victoria) was an astounding 109 points. Vancouver’s St. George’s School was third.
Two local schools were represented in the senior girls’ bracket.
Sardis finished 16th in the field of 22 teams, led by Caitlin LeBlanc.
LeBlanc had the 18th fastest individual time, clocking in at 17:05.95.
But the next fastest Falcon was well back.
Lauren Kean placed 76th at 19:26.25 and the rest of the team — Kiana Olafson, Sofia Biela and Anna MacKenzie — was outside the top 100.
Chilliwack secondary school’s team fin-ished 22nd overall, led by Kaitlyn Lindhout.
Lindhout was the lone CSS runner inside the top 100, placing 65th at 18:55.84.
Kalyn Head was 119th at 21:26.09.Jordyn Downey was 129th at 22:29.64.Katie Sanchez was 135th at 23:16.46 and
Kana Kobayashi was 139th at 23:45.37.West Point Grey Academy was the first
place finisher on the senior girls’ side, fol-lowed by Sentinel (West Vancouver) and Semiahmoo.

A fundraiser will be held Friday at the Chilliwack Golf Club to help Mitchell Thiessen tee off in China.
The junior club member recently secured a spot with the Canadian Junior Golf Association’s Team Canada squad. Thiessen will join the team on a trip to Guangdong. From Nov. 15 to 24 he’ll be golfing in the Aaron Baddeley International
Junior Championship, one of the leading junior tourna-ments in the world.
A trip to China is expen-sive.
Thiessen’s fundraiser will be held at the 19th Hole Lounge, starting at 6 p.m.
Tickets are $12 apiece, good for a hamburger (or chicken-burger) plus fries. Tickets can be bought at the Pro Shop.
Thiessen caught the eyes of the CJGA at a tournament last month in Pitt Meadows. The teenager carded his best ever two-day score, shooting 72-69 to take the title.
To help Thiessen in any way, email Dwayne and Kelly Thiessen at [email protected] or phone 604-795-7299.

The GW Graham Grizzlies are heading to the playoffs for the first time at the varsity level. GWG secured their first postseason berth last Friday, trouncing the Robert Bateman Timberwolves 38-22 to finish the regular sea-son slate 3-3.
Nailing down fourth place in the Eastern conference standings has them hitting the road for the playoffs.
The Grizzlies will face a tough test Nov. 14 when they face the top seed in the Southern conference, Richmond’s Hugh Boyd Trojans (4-0).
The Grizzlies will have a chance if their playmakers keep mak-ing plays.
Tailback Brett Westad continued his torrid season in the finale, rushing 27 times for 213 yards and two touchdowns. That earned him BC High School Player of the Week honours.
Treyvon Walsh was a two-way force against the T-Wolves.
Walsh returned a kick for one major, and returned an intercep-tion 74 yards for anoth-er.
Defensive end Josh Lecher was nearly unblockable, delivering constant pressure and dropping the Robert Bateman quarterback twice.
● The junior varsity Grizzlies capped off their regular season schedule last Thursday with a 33-6 home-field win over the Pitt Meadows Marauders.
GWG won its last two games to finish 6-2, fourth in the Valley divi-sion.
They will play a play-off game, though the who and when is yet to be decided.
Coach Adam Smith expects a home game next Friday at Exhibition Stadium.

The Sardis Falcons senior boys’ soccer squad came up one win shy of provincials, bowing out in the Fraser Valley playoffs.
The locals looked to be in good shape after a 5-2 win over Centennial (Coquitlam) last Thursday — with goals from Malcom Stafford (two), Tristen Thomson, Ben Reimer and Cam Hildebrandt.
But work commitments had Hildebrandt and three others (Emilio Martinez, Ian Lownie and Kaleb Meade) missing a Friday game against Panorama Ridge, and Sardis fell 6-0.
