He said that while he was in the police car a paramedic looked at him through the window of the police car. He was cleared and taken to the cells at the local detachment. Kevin said he began yelling and banging on his cell, spitting blood and repeatedly demanding an ambulance. At around 8 a.m. a paramedic checked Kevin out in the cells. Kevin said the paramedic told police that he only had a cut lip. After the paramedic left, Kevin continued to demand medical attention. “It hurt quite a bit. I kept yelling and kept hitting the door and I said I need an ambulance and they kept ignoring me,” said Kevin. “They were treating me like I didn’t matter.” Kevin didn’t receive any medical treatment until he was released from jail at around 2:30 p.m. Kevin’s grandfather, who has joint custody of his grandson, took him to a walk-in clinic and they were told he needed to go to the hospital because he had a broken jaw. Kevin was hospitalized overnight and had to have his jaw wired shut. “His face was swollen out to here. He looked horrible,” said Jennifer. “I just think that somebody has to be held accountable. I understand that my son was not in cells under the best of circumstances and I’m aware of that,” she said. However, she added that “he’s underage, he’s locked up in a cell and they’re responsible for him... As police officers they still have the obligation to listen to my son when he requests medical attention.” She said he was “treated like an animal, not being helped.” Ridge Meadows RCMP Inspector Derren Lench said that at the time of his arrest Kevin complained there was blood coming from his mouth. However, Lench said Kevin was so “intoxicated and belligerent in the back of the police car we couldn’t let him out of there for the ambulance attendants to actually treat him in person. They had to do a look through from outside the vehicle,” said Lench. He said when paramedics came to check him out in the cells “his main complaint” was a cut lip and the paramedics determined he was “fit to remain (in cells) and didn’t have to go to the hospital.” “The Pinetree became a problem within a period of about two months.” John McKenzie by Amy Steele [email protected] See JAW, Page 3 MONTH END MONTH END BLOWOUT!

Upfront

A 57-year-old Maple Ridge manis missing and police are asking thepublic for help finding him.

Ridge Meadows RCMP are try-ing to locate Newton RaymondPilkey who was reported missingto police on Saturday. However, itis unknown when he disappearedfrom his apartment, which is in the12100 block of 222 Street. No onehas heard from him in the past twoweeks.

Pilkey is described as a whitemale, 5’07” tall, weighing 150pounds. He has short brown/greyhair, and blue eyes. It is unknownwhat he was wearing.

“We’re worried for Mr. Pilkey’spersonal safety in this case,”Inspector Derren Lench said. “Hisusual patterns have not been fol-lowed for the last two weeks, so weknow we’re that far behind him tostart with.

He has some personal worriesthat may have led him to possiblyharming himself, so we’re trying tomake contact with him as quick aswe possibly can. If anyone sees himor knows of his whereabouts, we’reasking them to contact police.”

Anyone with any information asto Pilkey’s whereabouts is askedto contact Ridge Meadows RCMPat 463-6251 or the police agencywhere he is spotted.

An ultralight aircraft crashedon Pitt Lake shortly after noon onMonday. The pilot was the only per-son aboard and was rescued by apassing boater. He received medicalattention, but told medical officialshe was fine.

Lance Williams of Ayla Canoes,located at Pitt Lake, said he heardthe motor “sputtering and clunking”as it flew overhead just before itcame down on the lake.

“We would neverdeliberately ignore pain andsuffering that’s indicatedwhether they’re a victim or asuspect and if this individualhad said you know what myjaw really hurts and I thinkthere’s something wrong

with it we would have hadit checked out,” said Lench.“We take suspects to thehospital on a regular basisfor medical treatment,” saidLench.

Jennifer has receiveda letter from the B.C.Ambulance Service statingan internal review has been

initiated into the incident.The TIMES was unableto reach anyone with theservice for comment by presstime.

Meanwhile, theCommission for PublicComplaints Against theRCMP sent a letter lettingJennifer know that the

RCMP conduct the firstinvestigation into complaints.If the complainant isn’thappy with the course ofthat investigation they canrequest a review by thecommission.

Lench said as far as he’saware the Ridge MeadowsRCMP hasn’t received

the official complaintyet from the commissionand so hasn’t started aninvestigation.

Jennifer is unimpressedthat the investigation beginswith the RCMP.

“Come on. Who does theirown investigation inside theirown group?” she asked.

Maple Ridge woman suing over G20 woundsA20-year-old Maple Ridge woman who claims

she was shot twice with a rubber bullet whileprotesting in Toronto last month is suing the

Toronto police, CBC News reported Sunday.Natalie Gray said she was shot once in the chest

and once just above her left elbow.“I was in a lot of pain,” Gray told The TIMES in

a story that ran on July 2. “Generally the officersdidn’t seem to care or take note of how injured Iwas.”

Police deny they shot rubber bullets at the groupof about 150 protesters, who were marching in apolice-approved route to a temporary jail set up ina former film studio on June 28, the last day of the

G20 conference of world leaders. Photos allegedlytaken by an emergency room doctor show brightred welts on the woman’s chest and elbow.

Gray said she feared for her safety after twogroups of police moved into the crowd about ahalf-hour after the protesters arrived outside thejail.

Gray said she backed away down a side street.Then she saw a police officer drop down to oneknee and take aim at her with a large gun.

She said a fellow protester heard a police officersingle her out by her blue hair colour.

The first shot hit her in the chest and knockedher down, Gray told CBC News. The second hit her

elbow and tore off a piece of skin.As she tried to get up, uniformed police moved

in, pushed her face into the pavement and knelt onher back, she said.

“I have never been so terrified in my life,” shesaid. “I immediately lost control of my bladder andthe officers are yelling at me, ‘Stop resisting, stopresisting.’ And I’m saying, ‘I’m not resisting. Pleasebe gentle. Please be careful.’”

Gray was later charged with obstructing a peaceofficer. Police claimed the shots were not rubberbullets but “muzzle blasts” -- harmless blanksmeant to scare protesters, not hurt them.

Doctors accepting newpatients shouldn’t turn awaythose suspected of doctorshopping for sleeping pills,pain medications and othercontrolled substances, saysthe College of Physicians andSurgeons of B.C.

“Even given a history ofprescription drug misuse,the College would have tobe critical of a physicianfor refusing to see a newpatient solely on the basisof such conduct with otherphysicians,” the college saysin a bulletin to doctors.

College registrar Dr. HeidiOetter said some patientshave complained that theyare being discriminatedagainst by doctors or

clinics because of theirmedication histories gleanedfrom the PharmaNetsystem. The databasetracks every prescriptiondispensed in B.C. -- about50 million annually.Community drugstores,hospital pharmacies andemergency departments andmedical offices can accessmedications patients havebeen prescribed. The systemis meant to improve careand safety. In the case ofpharmacies and hospitals,there is an implied consent.But in the case of doctors’offices, patients must signa consent form. The collegehas not yet had to disciplineany doctors for snooping

or “surfing” the database,Oetter said. Pharmacies firstgot access to the PharmaNetsystem in 1995. Emergencydepartments were givenaccess in 1999 and doctorsoffices were linked into thesystem in 2006. In additionto the PharmaNet access, thecollege has a red flag systemin which it sends an alertto all the doctors who haveprescribed medications to apatient who has seen at leastfive different doctors in theprevious month.

Oetter said that doesn’tpresume the medicationsobtained through suchappointments were under“false pretences.”

One of the first thingsa newcomer toMaple Ridge district

will notice is that “MapleRidge” is not the only namein use. Other frequentlyheard names are Haney,Hammond, Whonnock,Webster’s Corners, Ruskin,Albion, and Yennadon. Theserefer to the original historicneighbourhoods, each ofwhich once had its own postoffice and community centrethat included stores, schools,churches and halls.

WHY DID THEY CALL IT MAPLERIDGE?

One of the earliestEuropean settlers in thedistrict was John McIver,a Scot, who homesteadedthe land now known as theMaple Ridge Golf Course. Ashis property incorporated afine ridge topped by Mapletrees, McIver called his farm“Maple Ridge”.

By 1874, several smallcommunities had sprung up,consisting of a few familieseach, on the north side ofthe Fraser River in the areasthat would become Haney,Hammond, Pitt Meadows,Whonnock, Albion, Ruskinand Webster’s Corners. Oneof the problems of small,isolated communities is thatthey tend to stay small andisolated unless some meansis found to build roadsbetween them.

It was with this problemin mind that a group offorward-thinking mengathered at McIver’s farmto discuss incorporatingthe whole district betweenthe Pitt River and the Staveto allow taxation for roadbuilding. The name forthe district was taken fromMcIver’s farm and so we

became “Maple Ridge” in1874.

THE COMMUNITY POST OFFICESWhen the district

incorporated in 1874, thetotal population was about20 families with the majoritylocated between Hammondand Kanaka Creek. Theclosest thing to a centrewas the area that is now thefoot of Laity Street where itmeets River Road. This iswhere the first post officewas established in 1876with the name “Maple RidgePost Office”. All settlers hadto travel to this location toget their mail, likely via theDewdney Trunk which wasthe first trail/road to traversethe district.

In 1885, the completionof the CPR caused thecommunity to rethink thelocation of their post office.It no longer made sense tohave it up on the ridge whenit could be near the railway.Three new post offices wereopened that year in Haney,Hammond and Whonnock.The Maple Ridge post officewas closed at that pointand there wasn’t one ofthat name again until 1970when Canada Post closed thesmall offices in favour of onecentral one in the downtowncore.

The first post office locatedaway from the river bankwas opened at Webster’sCorners in 1891. Post MasterJames Murray Webster hadto walk to the Haney Stationto get the mail and then carryit back to Corners. Ruskin’spost office opened in 1898.

In 1907, Albion got a newname along with its postoffice. Formerly knownas East Haney, this wasnot distinctive enough for

the postal service and soresidents were asked tocome up with a new name.The last post office in thedistrict opened in 1911 andalso required the adoptionof a new name. The areawe know as Yennadonwas formerly called SouthLillooet.

FULL CIRCLE: BACK TO MAPLERIDGE

There was a series ofmajor controversies overpostal name changes whichreflect how important theold neighbourhoods were totheir citizens. In the 1950s,considerable conflict arosein Hammond when residentswere informed that the priceof door-to-door delivery wasthe indignity of having tochange their postal addressto “Haney, B.C.” where thesorting station was located.The final solution was tochange “Haney” to “MapleRidge” as the more neutralname.

As postal districts becamelarger and door-to-doordelivery from a centralstation more common, all thelocal postal addresses weregradually taken under theumbrella of “Maple Ridge”.The name of the first andmost short-lived local postaladdress [which had onlyapplied to the area aroundthe foot of Laity Street whenfirst established] was to beapplied to the whole districtas of 1970.

While “Maple Ridge” wascertainly less contentiousthan having “Haney”imposed over the entire area,we still see the WhonnockPost Office strugglingto retain its own name.Whonnock is the last ruralpost office in the Fraser

Valley to retain its postmasterand original name.

Page 8: Maple Ridge Times July 27 2010

Political pundits typically refer to the summermonths as the “barbecue season.” This is inreference to politicians touring the land and

taking their turns flipping burgers andwieners at fairs, rodeos, picnics andother community gatherings where theyattempt to press the flesh and show howdown-to-earth they are.

Almost every serving politicianof every party engages in this long-established summertime ritual. But thecombination of barbecue and politickingis hardly a Canadian original.

It’s as American a tradition as, well,barbecue. George Washington wrote ofhis attendance at barbecue events asearly as 1770.

Horseshoes were thrown, pigs wereslow smoked, and there was music and dancing. Itwas the most efficient way to meet people and makeconnections. In 1793, Washington’s team serveda 500-pound barbecued ox at the nation’s capital.Supporters, detractors and the undecided lined up forblocks.

Barbecue has long been an essentialcomponent of U.S. electioneering.Presidents, senators, governors and ahost of others have long relied on thelure of slow cooked ribs and hickorysmoke in the air to rally the base.

Lyndon Baines Johnson was sofamous for having hosted so many starspangled barbecues that his personalcaterer published the LBJ Barbecue Cookbook.

Jimmy Carter brought a good old-fashioned Georgiawhole hog barbecue with him wherever the campaigntrail led.

Both the Bush presidents hosted annualcongressional barbecues during their terms in office.When George W. was first elected to the White Househe hired the owner of Cooper’s Old Time Pit Barbecuein Texas to cater his victory celebration.

When Barack Obama was campaigning to be

the Democrat nominee his team made a point ofdropping in on some of the most revered BBQ jointsin the country, including one of my very favourites,

the Iron Works in Austin.Barbecue, politics and campaigning

have essentially been inseparable forhundreds of years and it’s a traditionand strategy that has reaped many adividend.

Canadian political strategists have longlooked to the U.S. for campaign lessons,although some will defiantly deny doingso.

The summertime barbecue meet andgreet is one of the very best tricks of thetrade so it stands to reason it has been afixture in this country for many years.So I ask, why not do it up proper?

Instead of flipping pre-made, frozen patties with theartificial grill marks painted on them, why not serveup real barbecue? I’ve been to my share of politicalevents in the summer months that indicated theword “BBQ” on the invite. But thus far, I have yet to

see anything even resembling actualbarbecue. Sorry folks, but processedpatties and hot dogs aren’t going to dothe trick.

There is something almostsacrilegious about taking such a time-honoured tradition and turning it into ajunk food parody of what it should be.

The political-barbecue connectionis all about showing how real and

genuine the candidate is.These events are an opportunity to meet the

person, not the manufactured, public image. So ifgenuineness is what these gatherings are after, let’shave some genuine barbecue served up. Ribs, brisket,sausage coils and pulled pork sandwiches.

Or should that be pulled pork-barrel sandwiches?John Martin is a criminologist at the University of the Fraser

❚ Our View

❚ Opinion

Port Coquitlam Provincial Court JudgePedro de Couto has given us a lot to thinkabout in sentencing Colin Moore, convicted ofchoking a female bus driver in Maple Ridgeso hard he lifted her right out of her seat.

As he was going through his reasons forthe sentence he chose, he addressed theother bus drivers sitting in the courtroom.The victim wasn’t there because, well, she’stoo traumatized and doesn’t know whenshe’ll even get back to work.

“The courts in a criminal setting are nothere to seek vengeance...The courts have toact impartially in a balanced and fair wayand take a position that’s just and fair in thecircumstances.”

That makes sense. It’s a laudable sentimentthat many should consider when criticizingthe justice system.

Except that the bus drivers, at least theones interviewed outside the court room byThe TIMES, didn’t want vengeance.

They want a deterrent.And they didn’t get one.Moore only got a three-month conditional

sentence — served as house arrest for amonth and then with a curfew — with ninemonths of probation.

Meanwhile, his victim will likely suffer foryears to come. As for other bus drivers, theywanted to a message sent to all the otherpeople who assault them on a daily basis.

Bus drivers face this scourge all the time,from being spat on to yelled at to punchedand kicked, and even worse. They are fed upwith being vulnerable to attack. Somebodygoing to jail might have helped their cause,but we won’t know after this case.

Toughen up tax rulesThey say you can’t cross a chasm in two

small jumps, but it appears that hasn’tstopped our government from trying.

As reported in the Globe and Mail, theCanada Revenue Agency is preparing toloosen the rules around voluntary disclosurefor big-time tax dodgers.

The new regulations will reportedly allowCanadians with secret offshore accounts tofess up at less expense, with only the past10 years of undeclared earnings open toscrutiny by tax collectors.

The move will bring Canada’s tax lawsmore in line with those in the United States— but it only goes half the distance.

Unlike our southern neighbour, which hasbeen turning the screws on Swiss banks,forcing them to turn in their tax-dodgingclients, Canada is doing nothing to drive theerrant well-to-do into the open.

Without that component, the plan is oflittle value. Why would cheaters volunteerto pay a decade of back taxes when there isno greater risk of discovery now than therewas when they started? The new rule simplymeans the few who are foolish enough to getcaught won’t pay as stiff a penalty as theywould have otherwise.

If the federal government ever wants tosee its lost revenue, it will have to produce acane in addition to this new carrot.

Off-road usertrashes pristine

wilderness

Editor:In recent days another off-

road vehicle user has electedto vandalize property alongthe north end of 256th Streetnear the Justice Institute, inorder to gain access to localriding trails (See the photo onthis page). It hasbecome apparentthat someoff-road usershave a totaldisregard foreither private orpublic property.Recreationalusers of BlueMountain shouldbe up in armsover this typeof destructivebehaviour.

The hardwork being done by groups,such as the Blue MountainMotorcycle Club, whosemembers are attempting toimprove, protect and cleanup the trails, and thosecompanies trying to developand attract industry to thearea has been a wastedeffort.

Maybe it is time to revisitthe closure of Blue Mountainto any form of motorizedvehicles — a better choicehowever would be foremployees of the responsiblegoverning bodies to get outof their offices and enforceexisting laws and statutesand penalize the offenders.

There is legislation in forceto deal with this — startdealing with it.

Renters don’t careabout homes

Editor:Re: Neighbours demand

too much, TIMES Mailbag,July 23

As a responsible and cleanhomeowner taking pridein our family home, weunfortunately live betweentwo rented homes that are

nothing less than sad.These lazy neighbours are

irresponsible people livingon either side of my well-maintained/manicured yard.They are lethargic in keepingup their homes to make theneighbourhood look nice, asboth properties have exteriorvinyl siding homes and aredisgustingly filthy with cakedlayers of dust on their sidingthat makes it look drab as ithas not been powerwashedfor years.

I feel that the City ofPitt Meadows shouldmake a bylaw wherebyit is compulsory for bothhomeowners and rentersto maintain their propertyto acceptable cosmeticstandards. There are noexcuses, as they could hiresomeone to wash the exteriorsiding of their home or dotheir part to water the lawnthat adjoins ours. We live inSouth Pitt Meadows and thisis a nice area. There are goodproperty owners and a fewbad ones as there are goodrenters and lazy ones. We arejust lucky.

The bottom line is do someyard work whether you ownor rent, as these homes arean unsightly blemish onwell-maintained ones.

The landlords should becontacted to inform themthat their property is notmaintained to acceptablestandards. It’s like puttingone nice car between twodirty ones on a car lot forsale. I am sorry to say thatforeign land owners need toget on top of their projects,just not sit on their backsidesand collect the rent. If therenters cannot do somesimple maintenance andupkeep then boot them

out and bring in moreresponsible people whowill respect the homesand neighbours and hire aproperty management team.

Unfortunately, we wereone of the first buyers in thisfairly new development anddid not foresee renters takingover. You cannot choose yourneighbours but that shouldnot let them off the hook.Shame on them for not evendoing basic yard work andhouse washing with bothmaking good incomes.

If I ever won the lottery,I would kick their sorrybacksides out and managethese properties properlywith responsible people.It is sad that some blighton a tree makes the wholetree look bad. For these twoneighbours, get off yourbacks and do some work,like shovelling snow in thewinter instead of relyingon good Samaritans to savethe day and make your lifeeasier by sliding into theshovelled out spaces you aretoo lazy to get out there anddo your share. Get out andpowerwash your exteriorof the home and send thebill to the landlord butdo something rather thannothing. Be a neighbour, nota nuisance, and open youreyes to see that your lazinessaffects others.

Cops should stakeout pubs for

impaired drivers

Editor:Re: On the hunt for

impaired drivers, TIMES,July 23

A most interesting article.I am wondering why the

RCMP are sneaking around?Why don’t they go to thesource? Why don’t they parktheir cruisers on the streetoutside the parking areasof the local pubs? This will

become even easier whenthey have the right to pullover a driver at random andcheck them for alcohol. Andwow, zero tolerance willempty those parking lots.

Future historians will bemystified by our hypocrisywhen they see that weallowed/required pubsand restaurants to provideparking for their patrons,then penalize them for usingthis facility.

Bruce WilsonMaple Ridge

Editor’s Note: The articledoes say that local RCMPstage checkpoints nearcertain bars and that theowners of said bars are notappreciative, according to thepolice.

Nurses a dream

Editor:I am writing with regards

to an incident that took placeon July 14. My daughter,who was pregnant at thetime, had to be induced dueto gestational diabetes.

After the inductionprocedure the nurses monitorthe patient for one hour andif nothing transpires theyare sent home. During thisprocess she went into labour,and delivered her baby in thewashroom of Ridge MeadowsHospital.

Our concern right now isthat closing our local hospitalmaternity ward would meanthat our expectant motherswould have to go elsewhereto deliver babies, and afterthis experience I certainlywould not want to see thishappen to other youngmothers.

Of course all was well withmom and baby. My daughterwas in labour for all of anhour and a half, if not forthe maternity ward in thehospital would they have hadto send her and her babe toanother hospital for aftercare.

Ann Blackwell and TammyRoutley met in 2003, duringthe spring Art Studio Tour,when Ann opened herhome studio to the public.They connected right away,sharing a playful, inquisitiveapproach to their art-making.

So when Ann asked Tammyto join her in an exhibitionthis summer, Tammy agreedenthusiastically.

Ann is a mixed mediaartist, currently focusing

on beadwork and doll-making. She is also creatinga “Mandala of Friends” forthis show. Tammy worksin illustration, combininghand-drawn images withcomputer colouring. Shemakes puzzles, cards, andmagnets.

The name of the show isderived from Lewis Carroll’sword “frabjous” in theJabberwocky poem (“ohfrabjous day” being the

day that the jabberwockyis slain). Looking forsomething with a few moresyllables, they soon found“frabjabulous” in the UrbanDictionary, and it stuck.❚ Visit New Creations Art

Gallery & Studios during themonth of August. Openingreception is Friday, Aug.6, from 6:30 to 9 p.m. Thegallery is located behindJim’s Pizza, at 22409McIntosh Ave., Maple Ridge.

Garden Talk

AnneAnneMarrisonMarrison

In the early years of gardening many of ustreat deadheading as a casual stroll wherewe can hold a cup of coffee (or

glass of wine) in one hand andpick off spent flowers with theother.

But later, dead-heading canbecome so much more. Forcontainer gardeners in summer,dead-heading is also a chance tocheck for pests that can quicklybecome epidemic in hot, dryconditions. Taking a few secondsto check underneath three orfour dubious-looking leaves canreveal spider mites or whiteflybefore their numbers becomeoverwhelming.

All annuals bloom longer if dead-headedregularly and if annuals grown for foliagehappen to flower, it’s usually best todeadhead them early. Many foliage plants(coleus is one) have insignificant flowers andif they’re allowed to make seed the foliageoften deterioriates.

Some perennials will re-bloom if cut backimmediately after the first flush of bloom.This includes many hardy geraniums, lupins,snapdragons, Verbena bonariensis, yarrowand alchemilla (Ladies Mantle).

Once summer is well under way, gardenersmay consider neglecting some of thedeadheading to provide seedheads for driedarrangements in winter. The hardy annualLove-in-a-Mist (Nigella) with its seedheadsof red-striped green globes is beautiful invases. Its seed is easy to save and scatter infall for next year’s display. But seed-headsthat look so good in garden beds or winterarrangements can be a real trap for gardenerswho already have quite enough dandelionsor buttercups to weed-out and don’t needthousands of volunteer hellebores/teasels/camas/ornamental grasses as well.

The key is to watch the seedheads and

cut the unwanted ones out before they getclose to shedding seed. Gardeners who want

short-lived perennials to persistin their garden should alwaysallow a little self-seeding.Columbines and foxgloves fallinto this group. But foxglovesneed to be cut back beforethey turn into an ugly longpole crowned by a little tuft offlowers.

Cutting almost the wholestalk, but leaving a few inchesof seed capsules at the baseof the flower spike ensures amanageable amount of seed toscatter where you want more

foxgloves. Some rampant self-seeders needfinesse and extra time if seeding is to bestopped while allowing the flower display isto continue. This means older florets shouldbe snipped out frequently because they willproduce and drop seed while the youngerflorets are still in early bloom. There areothers such as Hellebore foetidus and H.orientalis for instance which ripen suddenlyand shed seed shockingly fast. Others wherethe seed-head opening faces firmly upwardcan be left longer before deadheading.

By early fall, wildlife-loving gardeners stopdeadheading perennials, which produceseed that birds like. This includes rudbeckia,echinacea and some of the verbascums(mulliens). Some seedheads also make agood shelter for beneficial insects over thewinter. Deadheading is very important forspring bulbs because the energy they useto produce seed is stolen from next spring’sflower display. But alliums seem to handlecutting well. In fact, Allium christophiiseedheads can decorate the garden tillautumn rain and wind topples them.

Kwon putts his way to gold medal

Kevin Kwon of Pitt Meadows mastered the challenging Redwoods Golf Course Saturday to take the boys goldmedal at the B.C. Summer Games.

Kwon, the reigning 2009 B.C. Juvenile Boys’ champion, shot a six-under 65 from the blues on a course noted forits narrow fairways lined with the trees that gave the course its name.

“I think that’s the best I’ve ever played,” said Kwon who left Langley immediately after the medal ceremoniesto catch a flight to New Mexico, where he will be playing in the prestigious Boys Junior Americas Cup. “I tried tofocus on what I had to do. I put the ball in the right places most of the time.

“Winning here is definitely uplifting, going into the Americas Cup.”Kwon said the difference between his first round Friday, when he shot a leading one over par, and Saturday’s

round was his putting.Asked if he had fun, Kwon said, “It’s hard not to have fun when you are playing that well.”A contingent of 61 players, aged 12 to 16 from eight different zones, teed up at the Redwoods Golf club to

compete in the B.C. Mixed Zone Team and Individual boys and girls categories at the Township of Langley 2010B.C. Summer Games. ❚

The young golfer is off to New Mexico after his win at the B.C. Summer Games lastweek in Langley.

Five Ridge Meadows players fromthe Fraser Valley North Baseball– Cole Stovman, Tarin Richardson(above), Matthew Strother, BayleyGermain, Cole Johnson – took partin the B.C. Summer Games andwon a bronze medal by beatingVictoria Island 3-2 in a thriller. Thegame was tied at the bottom of theseventh with two outs, when a basehit to third scored the winning run.

Even more nerve-racking was thesemifinal game where our boysplayed in a nail-biter that rockedback and forth for more than threehours. Unfortunately for Fraser Val-ley North they lost a heartbreakerin the bottom of the ninth with afinal score of 8-7 to Fraser RiverDelta – the team that ultimatelywon the gold medal.
