Parents upset with closure of Safari Kids Zone play facility

City said private firm now provides indoor play structureAlex BUTLERAbbotsford News

An online petition calling to re-open Safari Kids Zone received more than 150 supporters early this week.

The large indoor play structure at Abbotsford Exhibition Park (32470 Haida Dr.) closed down for drop-in hours in December, and will cease operation permanently on June 30.

The petition states that parents and their children were disap-pointed when Safari Kids Zone closed its door to anything other than birthdays, and adds the city decided “without public consul-tation” to close it permanently.

“Safari Kids Zone is arguably the cleanest and safest kids play place in the area, and our children deserve to be able to enjoy this type of facility.”

Heidi Enns, the city’s general manager of parks, recreation and culture, said the facility opened in 2010 after the city purchased a used play structure and could install it in the park at a low cost.

She said there was nothing like it in the community at that time, but that as the equipment was five years old when purchased, it would have a short life span and need to be retired eventually.

The play structure, measuring 48 feet by 24 feet and 16 feet in

height, was installed in 2009 after it was purchased from a mall in Ontario. The city paid $107,000 in total to have it shipped, installed and to cover other associated costs. The structure was worth $180,000 new.

Enns said a private company is now providing similar services – Abby Play on Abbotsford Way, which impacted the use of the city-run facility, so the schedule was altered in December to open only for bookings and birthday parties.

She said this information was in program guides, the website and schedules, and staff talked to parents of regular attendees before it was closed to drop-ins.

But Cheryl Davie, a local mother who often brought her son there, said she only found out about the closure through social media and wonders why parents weren’t consulted online.

Enns said there are many other affordable programs available from the city at the Abbotsford Recreation Centre and Matsqui Recreation Centre.

Davie said she wants to see the facility stay open and repairs done if needed, as it is a cost effective option for parents.

“They are treating it like a business decision... this is a public amenity paid for by taxpayers so we need to make that decision, not staff.”

Vikki HOPESAbbotsford News

A woman for whom Abbotsford Police issued a warrant last week in con-nection with the theft of poppy donation boxes in Abbotsford is in custody.

The warrant was mistak-enly issued for Lisa Marie Goddard, 30, who was al-ready in jail after receiving a six-month sentence on May 15 for theft of a poppy dona-tion box in Mission.

On May 21, the Mission

woman was charged with five addition-al counts of theft for allegedly steal-ing Royal Canadian Legion donation boxes from five Abbotsford loca-tions – three gas stations and a con-venience store on McCallum Road and a farm market on Clayburn Road.

Goddard is next scheduled to appear on those charges June 4 in Abbotsford provin-

cial court.At the time of the

thefts last November, members of the legion estimated the miss-ing funds to be up to $3,000.

The thefts were no-ticed when legion vol-unteers arrived at local

businesses to pick up the boxes after Remembrance Day.

An image of the suspect was obtained from video surveillance at one of the

businesses that was hit. According to the provin-

cial court database, Goddard has several prior convictions for fraud and other offences such as possession of stolen property, theft, using a sto-len credit card, break-and-enter, and breaching her probation.

In December 2011, Langley RCMP issued a warrant for her arrest after Goddard was accused of racking up charges on two stolen credit cards.

Run for Water’s ultimate warriorSchofield runs all five courses in one day

Dan KINVIGAbbotsford News

Peter Schofield took a crack at running 130-plus kilometres in a single day, just to see if he could.

He got the job done in just under 19 hours, with a smile on his face.

The 53-year-old Abbotsford resident ran all five distances of the Run for Water on Saturday, beginning at 3:50 a.m. with the half-marathon course (21.1 km), continuing with the ultra marathon (53 km) and the marathon (42.2 km), and wrap-ping up with the 10 km and 5 km distances. He took the last step of his epic 131.3 km journey at 10:30 p.m.

“It was a personal challenge just to do it,” explained Schofield, an avid runner who takes on everything from trail runs to marathons. “You don’t know how far you can go until you go as far as you can.”

Last year, Schofield ran each of the five Run for Water distances on five consecutive days alongside his friend Mel Dick.

This year, the natural “next step,” as he put it, was to run them all in a single day.

Schofield trained the same as he would for running a marathon, and made sure to leave plenty of time for re-covery and rest so he

wouldn’t burn out on the day.

Schofield let his friends know what he was planning, but didn’t seek out any media at-tention in advance be-cause he didn’t want the extra pressure. The most he’d ever run in a day was 80 km, and while he

was confident he could extend beyond that threshold, he wasn’t completely certain.

“Trust me – there were times during the mara-thon when I wanted to quit,” he acknowledged with a chuckle. “I had no idea what to expect. It was a job.”

When he was fin-ished, Schofield felt a deep sense of accom-plishment, but mostly, he just wanted to get home and fall into bed.

On Sunday morning, he was back at Mill Lake Park to watch the main Run for Water festivities, and he looked – and felt – remarkably spry.

“I feel better than I do after racing a lot of marathons,” he said.

“Pain is so temporary, but bragging rights are forever . . . It’s a sickness, I tell ya.”

For Schofield, the Run for Water is more than just an excuse to put his body through the wringer. He’s a big sup-porter of the charitable component of the event, raising $1,750, which will go towards creating clean water sources in Ethiopia.

“It’s such a worthy cause,” he said. “Rather than hauling water all the time, (kids) can go to school and actually have a life.”

For more Run for Water coverage, see the special section on pages A15-A18 and the event recap on A24.

Peter Schofield was honoured onstage Sunday at the Run for Water after his 130-plus km run on Saturday.

Legal sale of ‘soothers’ a Sumas stimulus?

My friend’s mea culpa in this space last week got me to thinking about the good old (bad old?) days when many people thought it acceptable to trot off to Sumas, get happily snock-ered, and drive home.

Many was the time when a crew of us, after having “put the paper to bed” on deadline day, would pile into a car and roll up to the border crossing. In those simpler days all US customs wanted to know was where you were going.

“Sumas for a beer” got you a nod and “go ahead.”

Sumas was then “the place.” The lit-tle village rocked every weekend, and most weeknights too. It was also the place for wet lunches, and few consid-ered the implications of drinking and

driving, particularly when you were often sharing the bar and a snootful with Matsqui’s chief of police.

Not only did Sumas offer up vast jugs of cheap beer, but you could find forgotten songs on the juke box, shoot a game of pool, dance your feet off or, as many Abbotsford seniors did, drop the monthly pension cheque gam-bling on pull tabs.

Then, of course, came the B.C. revo-lution of neighbourhood pubs, lottery tickets, scratch-and-wins and Keno at our corner stores, casinos and nearly comparable gas prices.

Sumas went into severe decline with the loss of Canadian customers; most of its gas stations closed along with nearly every bar, restaurant and honky-tonk.

The now-onerous trial of border crossings with passports and detailed descriptions of the reasons for your desire to make a brief sojourn into the “home of the free” has meant that for well over a decade Sumas has been little more than a pass-through on the way to I-5 outlet stores.

That community condition, how-ever, may soon change.

Not that there is renewed interest in cheap beer or foot-stompin’ country music bands ... Whatcom County is this July allowing the opening of legal marijuana shops. Fifteen in total, and you can bet that Sumas’ previously enterprising spirits will ensure a cou-

ple of stores open there to take ad-vantage of free-spending pot-toking Canadians.

By the way, I wouldn’t be telling U.S. immigration officials you’re going down for dope, and despite it being legal in Washington State to have up to an ounce in your possession, it’s against the law to smoke it in public.

Furthermore, after watching a few episodes of Border Security featur-

ing Canada’s Border Services Agency, Ioffer this warning: returning to our faircountry could become a lot more dif-ficult than going south if the essence ofmarijuana wafts from your car windowas you roll up to the crossing booth.

According to the TV show, our guard-ians of the line take a dim view of can-nabis use, because despite all the potsmoking that takes place openly up here,it is still illegal in Canada.

Thus some possible advice: adopt theold “hippie” trick of dousing yourself inpatchouli oil, and perhaps pack a changeof clothes in the trunk. Likely won’t help,but at least you’ll be “in the groove” asyou try to explain your possible impair-ment to our vigilant border guards.

As for me, until they reintroduce $3jugs of beer and a free ride home, I’mstaying out of Sumas, or anywhere elseup here for that matter without a desig-nated driver.

As my friend pointed out last week,the consequence to doing otherwise issimply too severe to risk it!

[email protected]

Attracting 4,500 runners and raising $250,000, last weekend’s Run for Water event was an-other resounding success, funding projects to provide clean drinking water for villages in Ethiopia. Once again, the big race day took place under persistent showers, but as in previ-ous years, participants turned out with resolve and smiles.

This has become one of Abbotsford’s signa-ture events, showcasing the hard work of hun-dreds of volunteers, and the generous spirit of thousands of globally minded people.

Invariably, though, there always seem to be some folks who struggle to understand why such effort should be undertaken here to help less fortunate people thousands of kilometres away, rather than in our own community, or even country.

Compassion for one’s fellow man aside, per-haps an observation of the pragmatic effects of such aid would encourage a more global view.

The basic necessities of water, food, shelter and health care are critical in order for the people of a developing country to elevate their

standard of living.Many Ethiopian women and children must

trek for hours to fetch water for their families. In doing so, they miss out on an education.

Given that vital opportunity, those individu-als are potential engineers, doctors and skilled tradespeople who would be key contributors to their country’s advancement.

A generation later, their children may well be providing vital assistance to other people needing a hand up.

Canadians are very generous, and there are countless initiatives and campaigns to meet the needs of our own citizens.

It doesn’t, nor shouldn’t, mean our eyes and hearts are always focused inward.

There is special value in thinking and acting globally. Sometimes the rewards are immedi-ate, such as a sense of common human spirit and kindness. Other times, the objectives and results are long-term.

Ask the thousands of people who participate in Run for Water what it means to reach out.

They get it.

Reaching around the globe

Underlying flaw not eradicatedI take objection to

(letter-writer) Richard Peachey castigating Mr. Holota as “scum” for drinking alcohol and then driving his vehicle. It is not against the law unless the driver’s al-cohol-blood reading is over 0.05 and Mr. Holota never revealed that in his May 21 column, “Months to think, in-stead of a moment.”

As anyone who is fa-miliar with a portable breathalyzer (as I have been with my having been employed by a police service), it can give erroneous readings based on the difference between alcohol in the lungs and from the breath and alcohol in

the mouth.That aside, even one

glass of wine can affect one’s ability depending on the circumstances – lack of food in the stomach, fatigue, medi-cations in the blood system.

As for breaking a “clear law,” Peachey should review the re-cent history of testing drivers alleged to be driving under the influ-ence to see just how “unclear” if not “unfair” the law has been.

I fail to see the point in drawing a non-exis-tent entity into the ar-gument.

Mr. Holota is an excel-lent editor and this inci-dent does not impinge

upon his profession-alism but only on his judgment of his ability to function “normally” after consuming even the smallest amount of liquor. There was no intent on his part to violate the law on this matter.

As for Peachey’s character at the time of his impropriety, I don’t think that turn-ing to Christ eradicates

the underlying charac-ter flaw that seems to pervade many people – that of getting away with a violation of any law.

It is a deeply rooted attitude that does not disappear, in my opin-ion, with one’s theo-logical perspective or change thereof.

Reconsider city decision to close Safari Kids ZoneTo: City of Abbotsford Parks Recreation & Culture

Committee Members,I am writing this letter to express my disappointment

with the sudden, surprise permanent closing of Safari Kids Zone. The decision to close this facility effective June 30, seems to have been done without any consulta-tion with the public who paid for this facility. As a public body, do you not have the responsibility to be accountable and transparent?

The City of Abbotsford’s offering of recreational pro-gramming for young children is not near that available in neighbouring communities. My family knows this be-cause we have lived in four other communities in the last seven years. I was hopeful that a YMCA would bring much needed recreation and wellness for all ages, but the City

of Abbotsford had other priorities. I have accepted this decision, however, when the city yanks the best remain-ing public facility away from my children, I cannot stay silent anymore.

The City of Abbotsford’s website describes Safari Kids Zone well:

Safari Kids Zone was created with the City of Abbotsford vision that recreation for all should be affordable, safe, healthy, green and inclusive.

What has happened to this vision for affordable, safe recreation?

On your Facebook page, your staff state that the facility is closing due to “declining enrolment.” However, earlier this year, the city made the decision to close this facility for drop-ins so it was open only for birthday parties. Of

course enrolment is down! And even if enrolment was declining, is there a policy

in place that once enrolment reaches a certain amount, a public facility has to close? Did the city do any kind of brainstorming to see ways to increase attendance? Did you do any surveys to determine what families need interms of programming and hours? Did you investigate the possibility of bringing in an outside partner to keepthe facility going?

We are not the only family who wants this facility back.Abbotsford Parks, Recreation and Culture Commission,

would you kindly reconsider your decision to close SafariKids Zone? Please re-open it to the public for drop-ins andbirthday parties as it was before.

Cheryl Davie, Abbotsford

Two cat burglaries investigatedPossible suspect seen at one break-in

Abbotsford Police are investigating two recent break-ins that occurred while occu-pants of the homes were sleeping.

The first break-in took place on Sunday, May 18 at about 5 a.m. at a ground-floor apartment in the 2800 block of Tims Street.

C o n s t . I a n MacDonald said the suspect entered through an unlocked and open patio door and left through the front door. Two peo-ple were sleeping in-side the suite at the time.

It appears that nothing was taken from the residence.

On the morning of Thursday, May 22, a resident of a home in the 32800 block of Ashley Way noticed that the back sliding door was open and various items, includ-ing a 55-inch TV, were stolen.

MacDonald said the suspect likely accessed the home sometime overnight while the resident and her family were

sleeping.A possible suspect

was seen in the May 18 break-in. He is de-scribed as 40 to 50 years old, about 5’ 9”, 160 to pounds with long dark hair.

He was wearing a black jacket, a black hat, and blue track pants.

MacDonald said both of these cat bur-glaries serve as a re-minder for citizens to ensure their resi-dence is secure at all times.

“Warmer weather generally results in more opportunities for thieves, with open doors, windows and

garage doors being easily observed,” he said.

Anyone with infor-mation about these incidents should call the Abbotsford Police Department at 604-859-5225 or text APD at 222973 (abbypd) or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

Schools closed for teachers’ strikeAbbotsford schools are closed today (Wednesday), as part of the

BC Teachers’ Federation’s (BCTF) escalating job action. The one-day walkouts are rotating across the province this

week, ending May 30. The BCTF announced the action last week after they rejected

an offer of a $1,200 signing bonus for an agreement by the end of the school year.

According to Abbotsford superintendent of schools Kevin

Godden, schools are closed as adequate supervision levels can not be ensured.

BCTF president Jim Iker said more pay, more teachers and areturn to contract language guaranteeing class size and special needs support are needed to reach a settlement.

Peter Cameron, chief negotiator for the province’s 60 school districts, informed the union last week that a five per cent pay cutwill be put in place in response to the first phase of strike action.

African children’s choir to visitGroup focuses on educating youth

The African Children’s Choir will melt the hearts of an Abbotsford audience with beautiful voices and African songs and dances at a performance on Sunday, July 13.

The program, to be held at 10 a.m. at the Heritage Alliance Church Canada on Mt. Lehman Road, will feature well-loved children’s songs, traditional spiri-tuals and gospel favourites.

The concert is free and open to all. A free-will offering is taken at the performance to support African Children’s Choir programs, such as educa-tion, care and relief and development programs.

Music for Life (the parent organization for The

African Children’s Choir) works in seven African countries such as Uganda, Kenya, Rwanda, Sudan, Nigeria, Ghana and South Africa. MFL has educated more than 52,000 children and impacted the lives of more than 100,000 people through its relief and development programs during its history. MFL’s pur-pose is to help create new leadership for tomorrow’s Africa, by focusing on education.

The choir has had the privilege to perform be-fore presidents, heads of state and most recently the Queen of England, Queen Elizabeth II, for her diamond jubilee. The choir has also sung alongside artists such as Paul McCartney and Mariah Carey.

ENVISION FINANCIAL RUN FOR WATER

AN AMAZING $1.1 MILLION RAISED IN THE FIRST SEVEN YEARSSponsors, teachers, students, runners all play a role in pushing fundraising into the seven fi gure territory for local event

By Ken Baerg

“Gratitude” is the word that comes to mind when I refl ect upon the amazing success of this year’s Envision Financial Run for Water. As a member of the Run for Water Society, the non-profi t, volunteer group that plans and executes a series of programs and events culminating in this last weekend’s run, I have come to realize what a privilege it is to play a small role in making a difference in our community and in our world. There is gratitude for the abundance we enjoy in our City; there is gratitude for our physical bodies and being able to express ourselves through physical exertion; and there is gratitude for people – for the sharing of their presence and their resources. Some of these can be fl eshed out a little further…

It is hard not to be grateful for over four thousand, two hundred participants from around the province and country who targeted the 2014 Envision Financial Run For Water as their event of choice. And for most, it’s not just another run on the calendar. People tell us they come to participate because it is one of the best-executed events around with a cause that inspires.

It is hard not to be grateful for the team of 16 ultra-marathon runners, including ultra-

PARTICIPATION NUMBERS: MARATHON = 244 / HALF MARATHON = 552 / 10K = 1053 / 5K = 2316 / TOTAL = 4165

RUN FOR WATERSTART

expeditionist Ray Zahab. The Run For Water Ultra group collectively raised more than $30,000 in funds for clean water projects and covered a gruelling 53km course in a team – based run for the cause on Saturday.

It is hard not to be grateful for over 400 volunteers who freely gave of their time to direct runners, hand out food and medals, provide medical attention where needed, scoop ice cream and hand out coffee, among many other duties.

It is hard not to be grateful for our incredible group of sponsors – too vast to name here – who lend time, expertise and funds to make this event what it is.

It is hard not to be grateful for my Run For Water colleagues – staff and board member who dedicate thousands of hours of time each year to draw in sponsor partners, strategically market the event, encourage people to fundraise, and to inspire thousands of kids to become sensitive and compassionate global citizens. For all of us, it is a unique, one-of-a-kind opportunity.

Finally, it is hard not to be grateful for the privileged lives we lead in this city and in this country, where access to water doesn’t dominate our existence, like it does for nearly one billion people on our planet. In time wouldn’t it be amazing if our efforts were no longer necessary? Wouldn’t it be great to learn that the imbalances that exist in our world had been remedied and that the issues surrounding access to clean water had been alleviated? Until then, the efforts to bring clean water to those in need must continue.

This year, the generosity of everyone involved lead to a sum of over $250,000 being earmarked for clean water projects in southern Ethiopia – more than $1.1 million in seven years – funds that change lives. The initiative to provide clean water to people in need is a movement! In 2015, we hope you plan to “run with it”!

RUN FOR WATER PROVIDES EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING TO LOWER MAINLAND SCHOOLSBy Betty Baerg

2014 has been an exciting year of learning and opportunity for participants of the Envision a Better World: Learn, Create, Run school program. The school program was launched in January with a teacher information session at the Reach Gallery where more than 50 teachers from K-12 signed up to enhance their students global citizenship education for the year.

During March break, the Run for Water Society partnered with Hope International Development Agency in Ethiopia to lead a group of 8 local teachers and 1 secondary student on a trip of a lifetime to Addis Ababa and Southern Ethiopia to witness the water crisis and the impact our fundraising dollars are having on thousands of people there.

Immediately following the trip, leadership students from local middle and high schools attended H2O: Youth Leadership Forum, sponsored by Envision Financial at the Abbotsford Arts Centre, our fi rst annual event that provides a stage for youth to speak – and entertain – their peers with an inspiring message of being agents of change in the global water crisis as well as anywhere else they identify injustice in the world.

Many of the students who attended H2O formed leadership groups at their schools to plan assemblies,

school-based runs or “empathy walks” and other fundraisers. 33 schools from Vancouver to Agassiz hosted running events this year, and in most cases, several students carried full jerry cans of water for long distances to experience the plight of young girls in Ethiopia. In every case, they were keen to share the insights they learned, typically citing how much more gruelling it was than expected and they could be quoted to say they would much rather be in school than having to make a daily trek of this nature.

The Run for Water Society continues to be inspired and amazed by the passion and dedication of local children and youth! Money continues to trickle in, but as of Monday, local students have raised more than $65,000 in 2014 through school and individual fundraising efforts. Enough to bring clean water to 1,857 children in the villages of Gezesso, Yella and Chosha. Many kids shared their fundraising idea on the Make a Splash Campaign page and fi ve winners were selected at this year’s Envision Financial Run for Water event.

Awards were presented to Colleen & Gordie Howe Middle for School Spirit (80 students registered to run on May 25th and every class was involved in school fundraising) and to Abbotsford Christian Elementary for Top Fundraising School as they raised $12,032. Additionally, our annual Educator’s 10K Challenge winners were Margaret Stenersen Elementary’s Sylvie Ingram (45:52) and King Traditional Elementary’s Darcy Lainchbury (40:34). The Run for Water Society wishes to thank and congratulate all teachers and students for their exceptional efforts!

ULTRA-BIG FUN IN THE RUN FOR WATER 52 K ULTRA MARATHON

“COME ON BIG MAN. YOU’RE GOING TO DO THIS!”

By Michelle Watrin

Many may believe the words fun and ultra-marathon do not belong together. But several of the 17 runners in the 2014 Run for Water Ultra Marathon would disagree. While pushing people beyond their mental and physical boundaries, the team atmosphere on the 52-kilometre run is always full of camaraderie and support. Led by world-renowned ultra-runner Ray Zahab, the annual assemblage prides itself on working to cross the fi nish line together.

Bodybuilder and local personal trainer Barry Ratzlaff, known as the “joint whisperer” to his clients, committed to the ultra-marathon one year ago. “I was at a celebration party for the Run for Water Society last year (his wife Jana is on the board of directors). Ray challenged me to run the ultra this year, and I thought ‘oh that silly run of yours. That’s funny.’ I had only run a 10K prior to that. But when something intimidates me, I just go and do it. So I accepted the challenge.”

In the fi rst few kilometres of the ultra on Saturday morning, a banter between ultra-runner Pete

Schofi eld and Ratzlaff began. Schofi eld began yelling, “Run, Forrest, Run!” to which Ratzlaff answered while speeding to a short sprint, “But I have to get Bu--bba!” referring to a scene in the movie ‘Forrest Gump’. This helped lighten the atmosphere for the group. But around the 40k point, things got tough for Ratzlaff, whose 260-pound frame is not typical of an ultra runner. Zahab kept yelling, “Come on big man. You’re going to do it!”

Ratzlaff explains, “That was the main thing that got me through – the group of people who wouldn’t let me quit. Some of them had done it before, so I knew it could be done. I had also visited a friend the week before battling brain cancer. I thought of her in the hospital bed and realized that she was really suffering and my pain was only temporary.” When Ratzlaff crossed the

fi nish line, “it was a feeling of joy, relief and love from my family and friends.”

On the other side of things the ultra runners were asked to raise $1500 each in order to qualify for the ultra-marathon. Many, like Edwin Palsma and Nikki Scott raised much more. “It changed the way I look at fundraising,” said Scott. “I was surprised at the amount people were giving. I know from now on I will be more generous in my own giving.” The group raised more than $30,000 that was a big chunk of the $253,000 of the weekend’s fundraising efforts.

Ray Zahab has committed to come back every year to lead a group of ultra runners. “The Run for Water is hands – down the best charity run per capita in all of Canada. I will be back every year there are people wianting to challenge themselves to run the ultra.”

Welsh and Glegg perform May 31

Rhythm and Cello is a live music duo that blends acoustic gui-tar, cello and vocals and will be coming to Abbotsford May 31.

The group will be the third installment of the Envision Financial Coffee House concert series.

John Welsh and Stephanie Glegg of Los Amigos have branched out from the high-en-ergy fanfare of their six-piece band to cre-ate a unique sound that combines the richness of cello with acoustic rhythms from a vari-ety of genres. Original songs showcase a com-bination of folk, reggae and Latin styles to sat-isfy both their fan fol-lowing and first-time listeners alike.

Welsh grew up lis-tening to the vocal harmonies of 1960s artists such as Simon and Garfunkel and the Beatles. He got his mu-sical inspiration while living in Guatemala where he was influ-enced by the lively rhythms and sounds of Latin America. Welsh also studied reg-gae with several Latin American guitarists and began looking for local musicians who shared his vision of bringing world music to a more mainstream audience.

Glegg is a classically trained cellist who has toured across Canada with Celtic rock band Shoofly, and has ex-tensive experience per-forming both classical and popular songs.

ThermageThermage®® Q&A Q&A

ANSWER:Thermage® is a non-invasive treatment for tightening loose and sagging skin. The most common areas treated are forehead, around the eyes, the mid and lower face and the neck. After one treatment results appear gradually over a 6 month period. Typically there is no downtime required.We are fi nding that Thermage® treatments used in conjunction with Botox, Fillers and Fraxel® create dramatic improvements to achieve a more youthful appearance. At our offi ce we refer to the combination of Fraxel® and Thermage® as “the facelift bypass procedure”.

QUESTION:I have heard there is a non-surgical neck and facelift called Thermage® – is it safe and does it work?

It is well known that light exposure from the sun can be very harmful to our bodies and can cause irreversible damage if proper care is not taken. While many people understand the need to protect their skin from the sun, the eyes are often neglected.

Questions pepper pipeline firmGovernment, other intervenors pose 100s of queries

Jeff NAGELBlack Press

The provincial govern-ment has filed 70 ques-tions for Kinder Morgan about its proposed Trans Mountain oil pipeline twinning and that re-quest for information is slender compared to others.

Green Party MLA Andrew Weaver has lodged his own submis-sion that poses nearly 500 questions to the company.

The City of Burnaby, another intervenor de-manding answers as part of the National Energy Board review, has filed a 300-page re-quest containing 1,500 questions.

Topping Burnaby’s list is a demand to know what alternative termi-nal sites Kinder Morgan could use instead of greatly expanding the petroleum tank farm at the Westridge Marine Terminal on Burrard Inlet.

Asked if that means pushing for a differ-ent terminal in Surrey or Delta, with tankers instead entering the Fraser River, Burnaby Mayor Derek Corrigan pointed to the U.S., not-ing Kinder Morgan al-ready has a spur pipe-line running to refiner-ies in Washington State.

“We want to know if they considered plac-es like Cherry Point that are already well-equipped to move oil,” Corrigan said.

He said that site just across the U.S. bor-der would shorten the amount of pipeline re-quired and eliminate project impacts in Metro Vancouver.

“I know there is already a holding tank farm in Sumas (Abbotsford). That type of location is far easier to accommodate ex-pansion than the top of Burnaby Mountain.”

As for whether Burnaby’s list of ques-tions is excessive, Corrigan noted Kinder Morgan’s project appli-cation is 15,000 pages long.

“One question for every 10 pages is prob-ably reasonable.”

The province’s ques-tions target land and marine oil spill re-sponse, prevention and recovery systems.

“We are asking the company to provide

more detail than is contained in their ap-plication so that we can continue our analysis of the extent to which they will deliver the world-class systems that we require,” Environment Minister Mary Polak said.

She promised a “very thorough” defence of B.C. interests and its five conditions for new heavy oil pipelines. Those conditions in-clude “world-leading” spill safeguards as well as resolution of aborigi-

nal issues and a “fair share” share of eco-nomic benefits for the province.

Unlike the NEB’s hear-ings into Enbridge’s proposed Northern Gateway pipeline across northern B.C. to Kitimat, the revised federal pro-cess no longer allows oral cross-examination of witnesses. Polak said the province had to shift its strategy to using de-tailed information re-quests as a result.

The $5.4-billion proj-ect would nearly triple

Kinder Morgan’s pipe-line capacity to 890,000 barrels of oil per day and greatly increase the number of tankers pass-ing through Vancouver harbour.

Weaver, the Green MLA for Oak Bay-Gordon Head, said he has many unanswered questions on the sci-ence Kinder Morgan has relied on in the event a tanker ruptures and re-leases diluted bitumen.

Kinder Morgan is to file responses by June 13.

Panthers beat T-Wolves in all-Abbotsford B.C. final


One of Abbotsford’s great high school sports rivalries was showcased on the provincial stage on Saturday.

The Abbotsford Senior Panthers and the Robert Bateman Timberwolves met in the B.C. AA se-nior girls rugby cham-pionship game in Port Alberni – the rubber match of an epic season series which had seen Bateman win 12-10 in league play and Abby Senior bounce back for a 5-0 victory in the Fraser Valley final.

The T-Wolves domi-nated the first half of the provincial title game, and led 7-0 at the break.

But the Panthers re-grouped and reeled off 26 consecutive points en

route to a 26-12 triumph.It marked the third

straight B.C. AA crown

for Abby Senior, and capped a memorable season which also saw them claim the provin-cial sevens rugby title.

“Bateman . . . playedvery well, and they hadpossession probably75 per cent of the time in the first half,” said Panthers co-coach PeterCannon. “And they onlyscored seven points.

“We basically justplayed defence in thefirst half, and we heldup. We felt we couldcome back, and we did.

“It was a great game. The tackling on both sides was dynamic, bothteams were making good runs, and we were able to capitalize. And that was the difference.”

The Panthers’ road tothe final began with a44-0 blowout of Merritt intheir tourney opener, fol-lowed by a 12-10 semifi-nal win over Brentwood.

Bateman, meanwhile, beat Valleyview 41-12 and Shawnigan Lake17-12 to set up a cross-town clash for all themarbles.

The T-Wolves tookthe lead on a try from Katie Farnell and a con-vert from Sarah Miller, but Panthers’ superior depth shone through inthe second half. Nakisa Levale and GurpreetDhaliwal had two triesapiece, and Tausani Levale scored one.

Bateman captain Lauren Kerr had watched the entire B.C. tourney from the sidelines aftersuffering a separated shoulder in the Valley final, but T-Wolves coachJen Ross put her in for the last five minutes of the game. Though shehad to avoid contactsituations, Kerr snuckthrough for a late try.

“She was our captain and our leader and ourheart and soul,” Ross ex-plained. “She’s just givenso much of herself to

Choboter’s the champBrebeuf senior wins B.C. high school decathlon

Zach Choboter unleashes the discus during the B.C. high school decathlon on Saturday.

JOHN MORROW Abbotsford News


Zach Choboter's predomi-nant emotion upon win-ning the B.C. high school boys decathlon wasn't that of elation, but of surprise.

That in itself is surprising, in light of how decisively he crushed the competi-tion at the provincial com-bined events championship last Friday and Saturday at Rotary Stadium.

The senior from Abbotsford’s St. John Brebeuf Regional Secondary won the first seven legs of the 10-event competition – the 100m, long jump, shot put, high jump, 400m, 110m hurdles and discus – en route to victory.

"I wasn't really expect-ing to do as well as I did," admitted Choboter, who finished eighth in the de-cathlon in 2012 and did not compete last year. "I trained pretty hard, but there were different aspects of the decathlon where I think I could have trained harder.

But it worked out. I sur-prised myself."

Choboter, a member of the Valley Royals track and field club, racked up 5,484 points for a comfortable victory over Glen Johnston of White Rock Christian (4,529) and Oak Bay's Derek Brougham (4,468). MEI's Tim Bertness (4,360) finished just off the podium in fourth place.

Choboter's specialties are the 100m dash and the long jump – he finished fourth in the long jump last year at the Canadian Legion Youth Championships.

He also plays hockey, suit-ing up for the Aldergrove A1 midget team last season, and has plans to try out for junior A and junior B teams in the coming months.

But winning the provin-cial decathlon has this dual-sport athlete leaning more towards track and field.

"I've always been pursu-ing (track and field) . . . but doing well kind of motivat-ed me to pursue it in col-lege," he said.

Mentoring him could be the start of something big– like a new

If you’re adding a circuit, moving an outlet or need some rewiring in

your home, you need a . . .

“Snake Charmer!”

For all your home’s electrical service, repairs or installations, call the company you can trust.Your safety, security and peace of mind are always our priority.

Our guys have spent their professional careers magically running cable in places where others say it’s impossible. And they do it without creating large gaping holes in your walls, so there’s never extensive “surprise” patching needed. I can tell you from experience, that 99.9% of electricians do not have this same track record.

Most electrical contractors are clueless about snaking wires professionally, because the majority of their work is in new homes, before the drywall goes up. Let one of them (or the cable TV guy) run wiring in your home, and they’ll most likely staple it along a baseboard (ugly and unprofessional) or punch a hole in your wall, causing you, additional, inconvenience and expense in repairs and repainting.On the other hand, our guys are masters at hiding wires in your walls.

In addition to possessing almost superhuman snake charming skills, Blue Crest Electric technicians are:

On time. We guarantee we’ll arrive within the 2 hour window of your appointment.

Friendly, helpful, trustworthy professionals. I don’t hire anyone I wouldn’t have work inside my own home. Check out our Safety Seal below at www.mysafetyseal.com.

Neat, clean and uniformed for safety and security.

Trained in true customer service, not just lip service.

Top-notch troubleshooters who specialize in saving you time and money.

Fully outfi tted with state-of-the-art diagnostic tools and a huge inventory of parts. We arrive ready to solve your electrical problem.

That’s the reputation our electricians have earned

because of the creative and effi cient manner in which

they “snake” electrical wiring through existing walls.

Run for Water hits the streetsDan KINVIGAbbotsford News

The seventh annual Run for Water hit the streets of Abbotsford on Sunday, with roughly 4,500 runners partici-pating in a variety of distances ranging from five kilometres to a marathon.

“It’s exhilarating,” en-thused Ken Baerg, chair of the organizing com-mittee.

“We’re proud that it’s sort of become a marquee event for the city. It grew from pret-ty modest beginnings – 650 people we had in 2008, and we’re in Year 7 now.

“It’s pretty gratifying to see the growth and the profile of the event.”

The greater purpose of the Run for Water is its fundraising to create clean water sources in Ethiopia via the Canadian non-profit agency HOPE International. The six

previous iterations of the event had raised over $1 million for the cause, and this year’s race added about $250,000 to that total – “staggering numbers” according to Baerg.

“Clean water is the root of sustenance and economic wellbeing for so many people, so it’s

a privilege to participate and try to make a differ-ence globally,” he said.

“It far surpasses any-thing we ever would have dreamed of. It’s all due to people’s generos-ity and lots of volunteer hours.”

Run for Water mara-thon champions were Ryan Prachnau of

Abbotsford (2:39:08 guntime) on the men’s sideand Rika Hatachi of Coquitlam (3:11:13) onthe women’s side.

David Jackson of Abbotsford won the men’s half-mara-thon (1:08:17), and Vancouver’s LissaZimmer (1:20:36) wasthe women’s champ.

Jeremiah Johnstonof Mission (32:53) and Abbotsford’s Alexandra Siemens (38:48) were the 10K male and fe-male winners, respec-tively, while the 5K champs were WestonToppozini of Aldergrove(18:59) and Kara Wismerof Chilliwack (20:18).

Jackson, Zimmer, Johnston and Wismer set new course records.

FOR THE RECORDThe special section on

the Run for Water (A15-A18) was an early press run, and referred to thewomen’s 10K winner as “Alexandra Siemers.”Her surname is, in fact,spelled “Siemens.”

Abbotsford’s seventh annual Run for Water drew roughly 4,500 runners, with over2,000 taking on the 5 km distance.

Yale girls win historic bronze at AAA B.C.’sthis program.”

Minnie Inthapanya of the Panthers and the T-Wolves’ Miller were named to the President’s 15 all-star team, and Nakisa Levale was player of the game.

“Nakisa, she’s going to be something,” Ross marveled. “I’d say she’s the best high school rugby player in the province. She can kill you – and she did.”

The Abby-Bateman rivalry is an interesting one – the players on both sides know each other well, with many of them play-ing together on club, regional and provincial rep sides.

“They’re friends off the field, and that’s what rugby’s all about,” Cannon said. “There’s a camaraderie that’s unlike any other game in the world.”

Cannon, a retired homebuild-

er, went with a construction metaphor to analyze the pro-vincial three-peat.

“In order to build a house you have to have good material,” he reasoned. “And in order to build a team, you have to have good material. These girls are good material.”

LIONS BATTLE TO BRONZEIn the AAA senior girls draw, the

Yale Lions notched a landmark bronze medal – the first B.C. po-dium finish in program history.

The No. 2-seeded Lions opened the tourney with a 32-19 win over Carson Graham, but dropped a 10-0 decision to Elgin Park in the semis on Friday, in part because five play-ers had to return to Abbotsford for graduation ceremonies.

Those players hustled back to Port Alberni in time for

Saturday’s bronze medal game, and helped the Lions to a 28-5 victory over Gleneagle. Sarah Klok earned player of the game honours, Sydney Stoltz was named to the President’s 15, and Mackenzie Carson was the team’s tournament MVP.

“We dominated the last game,” team manager Marisa Meola said. “The girls stepped up and really proved their team-work. They really persevered.”

T-WOLVES, LIONS BOYS WIN PROVINCIAL OPENERSThe senior boys rugby pro-

vincials got underway with first-round games at loca-tions around B.C. on Saturday, and the scene now shifts to Abbotsford’s Exhibition Park for games on Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday.

In the AAA draw, No. 4-seeded

Bateman crushed No. 13 South Kamloops 53-12, while No. 9 Yale edged No. 8 Kelowna 20-18.

The AA No. 11 Rick Hansen Hurricanes dropped their opener 26-14 to No. 6 Hugh McRoberts.

On Wednesday, Bateman plays No. 5 Lord Byng, while Yale faces No. 1 seed and five-time defending AAA champ Shawnigan Lake. Both quarter-final games start at 3:30 p.m.

In AA consolation action, Hansen plays Glenlyon Norfolk, while Abby Senior faces Charles Tupper (both 9 a.m. starts). The Panthers were a late addition to the field after Kalamalka of Vernon – who lost their first-round game – was unable to at-tend the latter part of the tourney.

Gold medal games are slated for 2:30 p.m. (AA) and 4 p.m. (AAA) on Saturday.
