Zombies lurchedthrough CampbellValley Regional Park.
TROY [email protected]
Zombies don’t run.The ones purists are familiar
with from the George E. Romerofilms, aren’t capable of running.
Intead, they shamble, lurch,and limp.
And they groan a lot whilethey’re doing it.
So it only made sense that,rather than joining the roughly150 runners at the start line atCampbell Valley Regional Parkfor the Vancouver Zombie FunRun early Sunday morning, thenine folks who volunteered toplay the role of the “undead”stationed themselves at stra-tegic points along the route andlunged at participants as theyjogged past.
The one rule that all of thevolunteer zombies had to fol-low was simple – they couldapproach the runners, butunder no circumstance were
they allowed to they touchthem.
Race director and Langleyresident Gary Jones said sincethis was the inaugural yearfor this 10-kilometre run, heexpected a few hiccups.
“All in all participants hadfun with a few scares along the
way,” Jones said. “For someparticipants, this was their firstever race so they were inspiredto run when they would nor-mally not.”
Campbell Valley Park waschosen as the location becauseof its scenic nature and the factit allowed for a 10-km route.
Jones said Sunday’s run fol-lowed the same model of otherruns put on by Wet CoastEvents.
He said they are all about“affordable, fun and memor-able events that can be enjoyedby walkers and runners of allages.”

The attack took place inLangley City’s downtown core.
MATTHEW [email protected]
A fight at a Langley downtown pubresulted in the death of a well-knownLangley homeless man on Monday night.
Wells Tony Gallagher, 37, was found byLangley RCMP in the 20300 block of FraserHighway just after 7 p.m. He was taken tohospital in critical condition and later died.
After a brief foot chase, local Mountiescaught and arrested David Christopher VanDen Brink, 21, now charged with seconddegree murder.
Van Den Brink, of no fixed address, is
known to police, said Sgt. Stephanie Ashtonof the Integrated Homicide InvestigationTeam.
Van Den Brink remains in custody as ofWednesday morning.
The daylight altercation in a busy part ofdowntown Langley meant many people sawat least part of the incident.
“Multiple witnesses came forward to pro-vide information to police,” said Ashton.“This community support, coupled withthe partnership between IHIT and theLangley RCMP, is responsible for investiga-tors obtaining charge approval relativelyquickly.”
The area around the murder scene wastaped off for an investigation that lastedthrough the night and into Tuesday mor-ning, when normal traffic was allowed toresume.

INDUSTRY
Site smoked outMATTHEW [email protected]
It took nearly a full day for Langley City andTownship firefighters to douse a stubborn smolder-ing fire at CKF Inc. on Production Way.
City firefighters responded to the fire at around11:30 a.m. May 28, said City fire chief RoryThompson.
“There was a considerable amount of smoke,”he said of the fire near Fraser Highway.
The fire was in the back of the large industrialbuilding, and the complexity and size of the firequickly led the City to go to three alarms.
That brought in some Township crews to lend ahand. Eight engines, several other vehicles, and 52firefighters were deployed to deal with the fire.
The actual fire didn’t do too much damage to thebuilding.

For its birthday, theBrookswood hall ishaving a party.
MATTHEW [email protected]
For 60 years, when a fireraged or a car crashed insouthwest Langley, FirehallFive has been the firstcalled out.
The Brookswood hall iscelebrating its 60th yearthis Saturday with a bigopen house for the com-munity.
For many years, the hallwas located at 40th Avenueand 200th Street, near theheart of Brookswood’smain business area, saidMatt Gillam, a paid-callfirefighter and Hall Five’spresident.
That older hall was toosmall and outdated, andin the early 1990s the newhall was built on 32ndAvenue, just south of themost populated parts of thecommunity and with easy
access in and out.The new location had
a lot of room, for train-ing firefighters, but alsofor community events andopen houses in the hall’smeeting room.
The hall has alwaysbeen a part of the com-munity, Gillam said, andlocal firefighters have beenactive hosting fundraisersfor muscular dystrophyand Alzheimer’s research,
as well as for the LangleyAnimal Protection Society,Critter Care, and theLangley Food Bank.
Every year the firefight-ers do an annual CandyCane Run and hand outChristmas treats to kidsaround Brookswood.
The hall also supportstwo scholarships, atBrookswood Secondaryand Langley Fundamental,rewarding those students
who want to go into theprotective services as acareer.
This Saturday, for the biganniversary, the hall hasinvited Township and Cityfirefighters, including bothantique fire trucks ownedby the local fire services.
In addition localgroups like the RCMP,BC Ambulance, FraserValley Search and Rescue,Crimewatch, and theTownship firefighters’ char-itable society will be takingpart.
Those keen to see or takepart in firefighting activitieswill have plenty to do.
There will be a mini-hosecoupling competition everyhour, and there will be anauto-extraction demo, withthe jaws of life fired up toshow how firefighters res-cue people trapped in theircars.
There will be extra park-ing available at the nearbyschool.
The firehall is located at20355 32nd Ave., and theanniversary event will runfrom 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Less snowmeans lesswater for localreservoirs.
MATTHEW [email protected]
With low snowpacksand river levels insouthern B.C., water-ing restrictions forLangley and the restof Metro Vancouverarrived this week.
The seasonal restric-tions take effect fromJune 1 to Sept. 30to conserve MetroVancouver’s drinkingwater.
“With this year’srecord low snowpackand unseasonablywarm start to thesummer season, weencourage all resi-dents and businessesto do the right thingand conserve waterwhenever possible,”said Metro Vancouver
Board chair GregMoore.
Watering lawnswill be permittedduring the morningbut banned duringthe evening, whendomestic use for dish-washing, laundry, andshowers spikes.
Since 1993, per cap-ita water use in MetroVancouver has gonedown 27 per cent.
Aldergrove andother parts of EastLangley are expectedto join the MetroVancouver water sup-ply later this summer.
The East LangleyWater Supply Project,dealing with someconstruction delays,is now expected to becompleted by aroundAug. 7.
Through May andinto the summer, thecontractors will befinishing installing thelast 800 metres of 15kilometres of pipelinethat will connect theMetro Vancouver sys-tem to East Langley.

Watering bans startAGRICULTURE
Market opens laterThe Farm & Maker Market that was sup-
posed to start May 31 at the George PrestonRecreation Centre has changed its plans.
“We unfortunately had to cancel somedates our grand opening is now July 11 withmarkets running every second weekend afterthat – July 25, Aug. 9, Aug. 22 and Sept.6,” representative Cary Campbell said in anemail May 30. The market run 1 to 6 p.m. onthose dates.

“At some point, soon we want to also cre-ate a program where people can apply formicro loans to help get their new business orprojects off the ground,” Campbell added.

Absenteetax idea hassome holes
Taxing wealthy property specu-lators is always going to be apopular proposition. Taxingwealthy, allegedly foreign prop-erty speculators who are driv-
ing the middle classes out of the detachedhousing market? It sounds like a sure firewinner.
A new Insights West poll found 73 percent of B.C. residents agree that taxingabsentee homeowners to quell real estatespeculation is a pretty darned good idea.
But what kind of a tax would deterspeculation?
Take a look at the last 10 years of realestate values in the Lower Mainland.According to Fraser Valley Real EstateBoard figures, the value of a detachedhouse went up 80.8 per cent in the LowerMainland in the last decade. That’s apretty good rate of return compared tomost stock markets, and unlike the DowJones or NASDAQ, there haven’t beennearly as many decreases in housingprices.
So sure, tax absentee home ownership.But unless you make the tax incrediblyonerous, don’t expect it to change thebehaviour of the investors much. Afterall, if you buy a $3 million mansion justso you can flip it for $4 million in a coupleof years, what’s the problem with paying$50,000 in extra taxes a year? That’s still afraction of the expected profit. Given howintense the market for housing is in B.C.right now, any speculators who do existare likely to just tack that onto the sellingprice anyway.
Adding to the complications is figuringout what “absentee” is. A foreign buyermight rent their home, hire a decentproperty manager, and be an overall goodlandlord. Meanwhile, a born-and-bred B.C.resident could be flipping properties likemad. Are rented properties to be exempt?How long do they have to be empty beforethey qualify for any tax?
There’s been a lot of speculation aboutspeculators, but with little hard informa-tion, any tax is likely to be ineffective,easily avoided, or to hit the wrong targetsentirely.

Iworry future generations won’t havea complete picture of how weird ourworld really is. Most of our societyis reality-based, or close to it. But
there are many corners of the worldruled by the conspiracy theorists, andwithout understanding them, we can’tunderstand our own times.
Conspiracy theories tell us a lot aboutthe anxieties and aspirations we feelas a society. A conspiracy theorist isn’tusually mentally ill. Your average con-spiracy kook is someone with typicalbrain functioning who has gone downa rabbit hole and believes in some oddthings, but is otherwise a mostly func-tional member of society.
Conspiracy theories come in all shapesand sizes, and many of them don’teven involve the usual suspects of evilgovernments and millionaires. One ofthe oldest is the Blood Libel, the 2,000-year-old lie that Jews murder Christianchildren.
More recently, the Satanic Panic ofthe 1980s was the idea that secret cultsof Satanists were scattered through allof society. That panic helped send mul-tiple innocent people to jail, accused ofmolesting children.
At the other end of the scale of harm-fulness, but with incredible stayingpower, is the conspiracy theory knownas the Shakespeare authorship question.Going back to the 1800s, this is the idea
that William Shakespearewas a front man for oneor several other authors;popular candidates haveincluded Francis Bacon andthe Earl of Oxford.
These days, we’re mostfamiliar with governmentconspiracy theories, inwhich the government hasbeen/will be taken overby some evil force. Thisforce will then implant usall with microchips/enforcecommunism/harvest ourorgans for their alien overlords, etc.They’ve also faked the moon landing,can control the weather, cause earth-quakes, have built a giant network ofsecret concentration camps, and prob-ably rigged it so that the Canucks neverwin a Stanley Cup, too.
The only thing they seemingly can’tdo is silence the people putting up web-sites revealing all their secrets to theworld.
People who try to put their theoriesinto practice tend to cause pretty hor-rific consequences. The idea that drugcompanies are just out to make money(more than a grain of truth there) hasled to people rejecting well tested vac-cines as harmful (false) and not givingtheir kids measles shots. The wide-spread networks of Freeman on the
Land believers think theycan avoid paying child sup-port, income taxes, or evenputting license plates ontheir cars if they just say theright pseudo-magical words.Many of them are now injail, having tested thesetheories on judges.
Most who study conspir-acy theories suggest it givespeople a sense of control,that at least they understandhow the universe works.
Bad things happen, allthe time. Children die or are abused.Businesses fail, banks go under, andhard working people lose their jobs.Planes fall from the sky, world leaderscan be brought down by lone nuts withcheap mail order rifles. Wars start overpride and stupidity.
A Freeman on the Land or a believerin the Oxford theory of Shakespeareauthorship both share the same sensethat they have seen through the sham.The rest of us are living in a dreamworld, too stupid or lazy to see thingsas they really are.
Even with Satanists, lizard people,and Satanist lizard people out of thepicture, the real world of random weird-ness still seems scarier to me.

Dear Editor,I have been waiting for action regarding a state-
ment made by Mayor Jack Froese. This was con-cerning the widening of the 208th Street connectorand that it could be paid for by the Township.
At the time I thought this was a great idea andshowed real character on his behalf.
This initiative would ease the everyday stress ofthe commuters and residents along this vital cor-ridor. This is similar to the great foresight shownby a previous administration on the construction ofthe 208th Street overpass.
I have not changed my opinion in the interven-ing months. Having the township head up the pro-ject would definitely speed up the process; insteadof waiting for five to seven years, its benefits couldbe realized in two.
Even if this idea is rejected by the planningdepartment, I wish to thank Jack Froese, theMayor of the Township of Langley, for at least try-ing to put all the residents of the municipality first.
Bruce Jones, Langley
Wider 208th St.is needed soon
Dear Editor,Not that there’s
any lack of entries inthis category, but youcan add governmentadvertising to the listof things-politicians-oppose-until-they’re-in-power.
As the curtain beginsto come down on theLower Mainland’sTransLink tax pleb-iscite, B.C. taxpayershave been remindedwhat happens whenpoliticians have holdof our chequebooksduring an election cam-paign. While we scrimpand sacrifice and payour taxes to ostensiblyfund critical serviceslike public safety,health and education;politicians line up tospend it on flashy adsdesigned to help themget more votes.
It’s the way it’salways been, appar-ently.
In opposition in 1999,Christy Clark ham-mered the NDP gov-ernment for spending$700,000 in taxpayermoney on advertisingtheir budget.
In 2013, the govern-ment-opposition roles
in B.C. had reversed.Clark’s BC Liberal gov-ernment unashamedlyspent a big chunk of its$36 million taxpayer-funded communicationsbudget on slick TV ads,touting their economicrecord and jobs planand laying the founda-tion for their improb-able comeback win.
Theoppos-ition NDP– oncethe guiltyadvertiser– was out-raged bythis mal-odorousspending, even launch-ing a petition callingfor an end to taxpayer-funded partisan ads.
Sadly, that new NewDemocrat positionseems to have gone theway of the dodo.
With both the BCLiberals and NDPfirmly supporting theTransLink tax cam-paign, the provincialparties turned a blindeye to TransLink may-ors spending $7 millionin taxpayer dollars towin this plebiscite.
Not a word of criti-
cism over this blatantmisuse of tax money– just a nudge and awink and a “do-what-you-gotta-do-to-win”attitude, even if itmeans wasting taxpayerdollars.
In November, B.C.Auditor General CarolBellringer tried to bringcommon sense to the
issue: “Itis a gener-ally agreedupon prin-ciple thatgovernmentshouldnot use itspositionof influ-
ence or public fundsand resources tosupport an electoralcampaign,” she wrote.“Government spendspublic money to informtaxpayers about itsprograms, but citizensshould not pay for com-munications that areof a partisan politicalnature.”
Bellringer recom-
mended that govern-ment prohibit partisanpolitical informationin government com-munications, and puttogether specific guide-lines setting out whatshould or should not beincluded in ads.
While the CanadianTaxpayers Federationgenerally chafes at theidea of adding anothergovernment commit-tee, it’s clear no party,of any political stripe,can be trusted to dothe right thing when itcomes to advertising onour dime. At least notonce they form govern-ment.
It seems politicianswill spend anything toget re-elected, especiallywhen it’s taxpayersfooting the bill.
It’s time to put pres-sure on them to closethe chequebook andcampaign with theirown money – not ours.

Board stepstoo drasticDear Editor,
I was very disappointed at the tone of thespecial general meeting Tuesday, May 26 heldat the Langley Senior Resource Society.
I am one of the group of concerned members,who questioned their actions that appeared tobe non-compliant with the bylaws and constitu-tion of the Langley Senior Resource Society.
According to the board, our concern for thecentre has put us into the category of bul-lies for the rest of the meeting. We want themembership to know that our petition, signedby 250 of the membership, asked for a meet-ing to review the actions of the current boardof directors where said actions did not followthe bylaws as listed in the Senior ResourceSociety Constitution, as well as a review ofstaffing changes and iniquities during the lastsix months.
However, the board called the meeting andset the agenda. We were very shocked that theyproposed a resolution for the removal of theboard. We did not asked for nor did we wantsuch a drastic step as they took.
We are volunteers who have for many yearshave worked tirelessly for the betterment of thecentre and its members.
Jan Scheuerman, Langley

Old cars andfarming’s pastconverge at ModelA Sunday.
RONDA [email protected]
As the years tick past,those who know what arumble seat is diminishes.Plows pulled by horses?Some wonder if that everactually happened.
Rediscover the history offarming and cars togetherat Model A Sunday on June7 at the BC Farm Museumat 9131 King St. in FortLangley from 10 a.m. to 3p.m.
The museum houses theprovince’s largest collectionof agricultural and pioneerartifacts. From the kitchento the fields, getting aroundto getting it done, there isno more diverse illustrationof how B.C.’s pioneers usedto manage their days andtheir lives.
Coupled with that collec-
tion on Sunday will be carsfrom 1932 and older liningKing Street, according toModel A Sunday organiz-ers Mike McVay and NoelCleveland.
“If it’s a nice day,we’re going to get a lot ofpeople,” said McVay.
Last year was a wellattended event with about55 cars and approximately250 visitors.
“We’re hoping for somereal antique cars,” McVay
added, noting that anythingfrom 1932 and older is wel-come to enter in the show.
“Bring it on down,” hesaid, including those carsthat have been modified orturned into hotrods.
It’s the 27th year for theshow, and Cleveland notedit’s an important eventbecause it’s one of the fewfocused on the older cars.
“We try and attractpeople to come and see it[Model A Sunday] and see
the museum,” Clevelandsaid.
“We use the whole street,sometimes both sides,” headded.
This year, organizers arehoping to see members ofthe steam car club join inand expect cars as old as1910s and 1912s to be ondisplay.
“There’s always a fewhotrods,” commentedCleveland.
There will be hamburgers
and smokies for sale by theFort Langley Lions club.
Cleveland’s 1931 Fordslant window won’t be atthe show, but McVay willhave his 1928 Pontiac onsite. “We’re open to allmakes and models,” hesaid. “So long as it’s pre-1932.”
McVay will also be atthe Pontiac show to beheld at the Coast Hotel andCascades Casino parking loton Sunday, June 14.
HISTORY
Rediscovering the classic Model A
Ronda Payne/Langley Advance
Noel Cleveland [shown] and Mike McVay co-organized the 27th annual Model A Sundaycoming to Fort Langley.
From the old to the new,Corvettes will be outrain or shine.
RONDA [email protected]
Given the six plus decades oficonic status the Chevrolet Corvettehas enjoyed, it’s no surprise thereis a show (or two or three) dedi-cated to the cars put on by the BCCorvette Club.
On Sunday, May 7 a Corvetteshow and shine will be hostedjointly by the club and Preston’sChevrolet, where the event is held,at 200th Street and #10 Highway.
It runs rain or shine and obvious-ly organizers like Preston’s generalsales manager Andrew Butterworthand Gary Clarke of the BC Corvette
Club, are hoping for sun.Sun not only means a nicer day
to walk around and talk aboutwhat ’Vette enthusiasts love, it alsomeans a few more cars on display.
“We get 100-plus on a nice day,”said Clarke.
But even if the weather doesn’t
co-operate, the turnout is stillexpected to be great. About 80 carswere on the lot a couple of yearsago under cloudy, drizzling skies.
The show opens to the public at10 a.m. with entrants arriving at 9a.m. The whole thing wraps up at5 p.m.
That’s a lot of time to admiremore than 60 years of Corvettestyle in pure stock versions to cus-tom models.
Expected on the lot are the newCorvette C7 Stingray and a new C7Z06.
“There’s the new Corvette C7Stingray, it’s been out about a yearnow, but it is available a bit betternow,” said Butterworth. “[Therewill also be] a new Z06 Corvette...that car is a really high horsepowermodel... this is the first year thatwe’ll see the Z06 at the show. Theyare very rare cars.”
Clarke adds to the list of what
will be seen at the show and shine.“There’ll be some C1s from the
’50s and ’60s,” he said. “And therewill be all levels of cars all the waythrough C1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7.”
The majority of those bringingcars for display will be BC CorvetteClub members, but for $10, non-members are invited to show theirCorvettes as well.
This, the 13th annual show andshine at the Langley car dealershipcoincides with the 50th anniversaryof the BC Corvette Club.
“We have three [show and shineevents] a year, so this is one ofthose three,” Clarke said. “Becauseit’s the club’s 50th anniversary,we’re going to have a special onein August in Whistler.”
More than anything, the eventis a social one where Corvetteenthusiasts can share, check eachother’s cars out, and talk aboutthem, added Clarke.

Belmont Elementarystaged Seussical in lateMay and would makeBroadway green withenvy – sell out crowdsat each show.
The school stages alavish musical everytwo years and justfinished performingthe show to more than1,500 people overthree days.
The school does theshow every two yearsbecause it mountssuch a big production.Sets fill about a thirdof the gym, toweringup to the ceiling.
The school com-munity helpedconstruct sets, andwith costumes andother elements ofthe elaborate show.
“We just have anincredible commun-ity who did this,”commented teacherJamie Thomas.
Having a twoyear window foreach productionalso means thestudents – those
on stage, those in thechoir and those inthe crews – are wellrehearsed before theshow and the result,at least in the May28 production, was astanding ovation.
“The amount oflearning for the stu-dents and the staff inthe school has beenincredible,” said prin-cipal Calvin Leung.

Duncan Cronkhite,Aldergrove
You won’t have tocut down your trees.All that’s needed isregular pruning eachwinter. The first prun-ing might be fairlyextensive. But laterprunings won’t be asbad because fewerspores will be able tospread.
Your plum treeshave black knot. It’sa common fungaldisease which in timecan kill plum, dam-son or sometimescherry trees. Blackknot spreads fromwild and cultivatedcherries and plumswhen spores mature
in spring and driftaround on the wind.
Pruning out theblack-knot infectedarea is the easiest andmost inexpensive wayof controlling it. Youneed to remove thesmall infected branch-es about three inchesnearer the trunk thanthe knot extends.
If you have any verylarge infected trunksor big branches thatyou don’t want tolose, you need to geta chisel or a dremel
and hack the knotout. This often works(but not always – itdepends how muchextra wood you haveroom to take).
Afterwards youcould be left witha heck of a hole. Inthis year’s dry andwarm summer, thecrater may dry fast.Nowadays, usingpruning paint is gen-erally considered
unnecessary.But if your tree
shows a prolongedor very fast drip, youmight check if yourlocal garden centredoes stock it. The cansof old-fashioned prun-ing paint used to godry quite fast whenstored – a good thingto be prepared for.
Gardeners in black-knot infested areasroutinely check plumtrees each winter andprune them if theyfind infection.
Dear Anne,Do you have any
suggestions of whomay want a small,but rapidly growingDouglas fir tree whichmy husband plantedin our flower garden.I would like to donateit before it gets to betoo big. It is currentlyabout four feet tall andhas new growth on itsbranches.
Gill Edwards,
VancouverIf you can dig it up
and get it in a potwithout damaging theroot, you might keepit for a few years asan outdoor pottedChristmas tree.
Native evergreenssuch as Douglas firsgrow far too large tobe suitable or safe forthe average city lot.Needles and conesplug gutters and litterpatios. Big branchesfall in storms andcan dent cars (andpeople).
Because they alsoseed around abun-dantly, Douglas firsare often viewed asweeds. That’s whyit may be difficult toarouse interest fromplant clubs or land-scapers.
Assuming you do getit potted-up in goodshape, you might askif the Vancouver ParksDepartment could useit. The Van DusenGardens may alsohave helpful advice.
Where Douglas firsfit in well is on largerural acreages awayfrom houses. Thesetrees freshen air andare a beautiful havenfor wildlife.
I wonder if youhave any relatives ona large rural propertywho, at Christmas,might be receptive toa potted Christmastree with a few orna-ments.

Pickleball’spopularitycontinues to rise.
TROY [email protected]
Asport that fusestennis, ping pong,and badminton,and is named
after Pickles the pooch,turned a half-century thisyear.
And its popularity inLangley and around theworld is rising at a meteor-ic rate.
Pickleball got its startback in 1965 in BainbridgeIsland, Wash., the brain-child of Joel Pritchard,William Bell, and BarneyMcCallum.
One summer’s day, theyhanded their kids pingpong paddles and a Wiffleball, and lowered the neton their badminton court.
According to McCallum,the game was officiallynamed after the Prichards’dog Pickles which wouldchase the ball and run offwith it
In 1972, pickleball wasofficially incorporated tokeep up with demand forpaddles, balls, nets, andother gear.
Today, Langley isone of pickleball’smany hubs.
The sport is so popu-lar locally, last year Cityof Langley staff paintedlines specific to pickle-ball on the tennis courtsbeside Douglas ParkCommunity School.
John Robertsonnot only competed inpickleball at the 2014BC Seniors Games inLangley, he also helpedwith the registrationand organization of thesport at last summer’sevent.
The Langley residenthas played pickleballfor the past two-and-a-half years and notedthat it’s one of the fast-est growing sports inNorth America.
To wit: just 24 competi-tors played pickleballat the 2012 BC SeniorsGames in Burnaby. Twoyears ago at the KamloopsGames, the numbergrew to 120, and for lastSeptember’s Games inLangley, 252 pickleballplayers played on sixcourts inside the WalnutGrove Community Centre.
But the game isn’t justfor seniors, Robertsonstressed: “It’s a tremen-dous workout, it’s easy toplay, easy to learn, and
in some of the schools,they’re beginning to teachit, now.”
The rules are fairlysimple. According topickleball.com, players oneach side must let the ballbounce once before volleysare allowed, and there is aseven-foot no-volley zoneon each side of the net,to prevent “spiking.” Theserver continues to serve,alternating service courts,until he or she faults. Thefirst side scoring 11 pointsand leading by at least twopoints wins. Pickleball canbe played with singles or
doubles.Robertson
said pickle-ball is“addictive.”
“It’s agame thatwe can playas seniors, relatively eas-ily, yet the competitivelevel of play can escalate,”he said. “There are ratingsfrom 2.5 to five, five beinga very good player. Youcan play it at any level; it’sa very social game and it’slots of fun although there’sa competitive componentto it.”
Robertson is currentlyrated by the USAPAPickleball as a 3.5 levelplayer.
In northern climes,pickleball is playedindoors at rec centresbut in the south it’s anoutdoor game.
For three to fourmonths each winter,Robertson resides in
Casa Grande AZ., wherehe is a member of thePalm Creek PickleballClub, which boasts awhopping 760 members.
In November, PalmCreek is hosting the worldnationals, which is open to
players from all ages, fromteenagers to seniors.
Arizona is whereRobertson picked up thesport and continues tohone his skills.
“At Palm Creek, 60 percent of the residents areCanadians, so we come
back home in the sum-mer looking to playpickleball,” Robertsonsaid.
The challenge is, theindoor courts are oftenbeing used primarilyfor other activities andsummer programs, “soit reduces our play,”Robertson said, addingthat in the entire LowerMainland, there isn’tone dedicated pickleballcourt.
Local players are head-ing outdoors to get theirpickleball fix.
On a recent Sunday,26 players used the twocourts at Douglas Park.
In the Lower Mainland,Fraser Valley Pickleball
(www.fraservalleypickle-ball.org) organizes sixtournaments each year invarious regional facilities.
Pickleball paddles arelighter than tennis racquetsand are typically made outof composite or graphite,and can be purchased atmost sporting goods storesor online.

“Legend” isn’t aword that shouldbe casually tossedaround, but it slidesin nicely between“motorsports” and “AlTourond.”
Inducted into theB.C. Motorsports Hallof Fame in 2010, theAldergrove resident isstill buzzing aroundthe Agassiz Speedwayoval – and still win-ning races and tro-phies.
Not bad for a guywho celebrated his78th birthday May 5.
On May 23,Tourond, whose tracknickname is “PapaSmurf,” capturedthe Trophy Dash atAgassiz Speedway.
“I started racingback in the ’60s,” saidTourond, who droveat the former LangleySpeedway oval.
One of his great-est accomplishmentswas being the firstCanadian to win atrack championship atSkagit Speedway, in1979.
Tourond’s latest rideis a modified 1980Camaro, and his crewchief is 75-year-oldGeorge Irwin.
Together, they’reknown as the 150 Yr.Old Race Team.
“We raced against
each other at LangleySpeedway in the ’60sand ’70s,” Tourondsaid. “Three years agoI was racing at Agassizand he came down tothe pits. I knew whohe was but I reallydidn’t know him. SoI said to him, ‘If youwant to come down tothe pits, you’re wel-come.’ Now, withouthim, I wouldn’t dowas well as I do.”
Irwin said if he hadthe money, he’d beracing again, “withouta doubt.”
Last year, the 150Yr. Old Race Teamtravelled to MerrittSpeedway, whereTourond raced on dirtfor the first time since1979.
“We did really well,”Tourond said. “I wonthe Trophy Dash andthe heat race andthen I crashed in themain.”
Tourond’s sons
Paul, 53, Rick, 52, andKeith, 49, have eitherraced, or are stillracing competitively.
“I race against Keithand Rick,” notedthe family patriarch,whose appeal to thesport is purely vis-ceral.
“It’s a rush,”Tourond said. “It’slike taking drugs. Ithink it’s better thandrugs because youdon’t come down.Even George gets thatway. When I comeinto the pits and I dowell, he’s as high asI am.”
Tourond – whosefirst race car wasa 1933 Ford CoupeFlathead V8 thathe raced at C.N.E.Toronto, Flamboro,Wasaga Beach, andSouthshore Speedwayin Barrie, Ont., – ishaving so much fun,he’s not planning onretiring anytime soon.
“I was sort of think-ing maybe this willbe my last year, but Idon’t know for sure,yet,” he said. “We’llhave to see howthings go.”
“It’s a year-by-yearthing,” Irwin added.“When you get to ourage, it’s if you feelgood, and it doesn’thurt, do it!”
You’d have to goback to 61 years agoto find the only timeTourond has everbeen hurt in a racecar, when as a 17-year-old, he wiped outwhile buzzing aroundwith friends.
“I’m trying to figureout how many lapsI’ve done in my life-time and basically Iwas hurt in a race carbefore I ever startedracing,” Tourond said.“I broke my hand butthat was stupidity. Iwas in a race car andI turned the thingupside down. We hadno seat belts in it, wehad no helmets on,and we were out therejust messing aroundon a Sunday after-noon.”

Q: I have prescription glasses should Ihave prescription sunglasses??
A: Sunglasses provide not only comfort on
bright, sunny days, but also essential UV protection
for your eyes. UV rays will damage our eyes over
time. Extended exposure to UV rays over time has
been linked to cataracts, macular degeneration
and photo-keratitis. It is important to wear good
quality sunglasses with 100% UV protection.
Prescription lenses can be fitted to many different
frame styles. Prescription sunglasses are available
in many different tints (colors) as well as options
for polarization. Polarized lenses reduce glare on
surfaces to make sunglasses even more effective
especially in the car and on the water. Come see us
soon to discuss what prescription sunglass options
are available to you.

Q: Should I choose granite, quartz ormarble countertop?
A: It comes down to personal choice andbudget.
Granite has beautiful natural patterns, and isstrong enough for kitchens. We recommendsealing every so often to avoid stain buildup.
Engineered Quartz is less expensive than mostgranite and is becoming a new trend. It is verydurable and strong, and won’t stain. There isalso a selection with natural patterns besidesthe well-known uniformed patterns.
Corian is primarily made from acrylic andpolyester and provides a solid surface. It isnon-porous and maintenance free. Selection iswide but it’s a bit costly.
Marble provides smooth patterns. However,it is very susceptible to stains even whensealed, and is generally not as strong as othermaterials.

Q: Are you looking to buy a pre-ownedhome?
A: When purchasing a pre-owned home,find out what year is was built, calling itan “old timer” won’t work when applyingfor insurance. It’s important to have aninspection done and understand what thedeficiencies mean. The year of updatesand renovations on homes is required,especially if the home is over 20 years old.The key areas for updates are the: Roof,Heating, Electrical, Plumbing & Age of theHot Water Tank. Homes with aluminumwiring are becoming difficult to insure. Forany renovations that have been done onthe home, ask if they had been done by aqualified and licensed contractor.

The proposed Trans Mountain Expansion follows the existing
route or other linear infrastructure for 90% of the way.
That means less than 100 kms needs to be moved to undisturbed
lands. These reroutes will be made to improve safety and address
environmental considerations, and will accommodate changes
in land usage since the pipeline was originally built in 1953.
We’ve been talking with the public, stakeholders, landowners
and Aboriginal communities along the proposed corridor to hear
their concerns. We expect you will ask questions. We’ve made
adjustments in many places to address the concerns we’ve heard.
Our intention in all of our planning is to minimize the impact on
residents, communities and the environment, while ensuring that
safe construction and operations are possible.

Be Wild Animal AwareThe Township of Langley is full of wildlifehabitat, and residents share the area withanimals including bears, cougars, and coyotes.While residents throughout Langley do notneed to be continually on alert, there are anumber of actions that can be taken to deterwild animals if they are spotted in your area.Parents are encouraged to educate theirchildren on what to do if they encounter anyof these animals, especially if they play bythemselves in areas that wildlife frequent orhave been seen in the past.
To help people coexist with creatures that are simplytrying to survive but can be dangerous if provoked, thefollowing information is offered:
Bears: are looking for food - don’t let them learn itcan easily be obtained from humans. If you encountera bear, do not run. Act big and loud, and back awayslowly to a safe place.
Cougars: can have kittensthroughout the year, andfamily groups can be seen atany time. Cougars survive onnatural food sources found inthe wild, primarily deer.
Cougar attacks on humansare highly unlikely. However,if you encounter a cougar,do not run. Pick children upimmediately and talk to thecougar in a confident voice.Act big by waving sticks and
branches, and back away slowly while still facing thecougar. If it attacks, fight back.
Coyotes: have the largest population of potentiallydangerous wildlife in the area and can be seen yearround, even in residential areas.
Coyotes are bold and easily lose their natural fearof people. Never feed a coyote. If you encounter a
coyote, scare it off by making loud noise or throwingsomething at it to make it afraid. Never ignorea coyote. If it continues to approach, do not run.Maintain eye contact, pick up small pets or children,and slowly move to an area of increased activity.
In Residential Areas:Reduce the smell of food by keeping barbecues clean.Keep pet food inside. Garbage is the biggest attractionfor bears so keep it secure and inaccessible to wildlife.Do not leave garbage cans out overnight: keep themin the house, a locked garage, or secured outbuildingthat cannot be broken into by large, smart bears. Putthem out only on the morning of collection. If you areworried about odour, keep garbage in the freezer untilcollection day. Do not use bird feeders, as they attractbears and the birds do not need seeds when othernatural food sources are available. This is the time ofyear to be extra vigilant with small pets, especiallycats, in areas where coyotes are around.
In Agricultural Areas:
Protect your investment by keeping fences secure andfree of damage that predators can use for access.Coyotes burrow, so ensure surrounding netting goesdeep into the ground. Use electric fencing to deterbears from blueberries and beehives, and pick berriesand fruit as they ripen. Be vigilant with livestock andkeep them secure. Farm animals are usually killed atnight, so bring them inside in the evening.
It is an offence to attract wildlife into a residentialneighbourhood.
Those who do not take steps to deter bears and otherwild creatures can face a fine of up to $575.
