School district eyes two new hillside schoolsGreg KnillThe Progress
The Chilliwack school district is looking to build two new schools, add additions to several existing facilities and review its property hold-ings as it looks forward to the next five years.
The recommendations, approved by the board last week, are part of the district’s Long Range Facilities Plan. The plan is required by the B.C. education ministry to help school districts anticipate their capital needs over the long term.
Chilliwack, which is one of the few school districts in the province to see sustained enroll-ment increases over the past five years, is already experiencing pressure at several of its schools.
It’s looking to eliminate portable classrooms by building additions to Evans elementary, Sardis elementary, Watson elementary, and Promontory Heights elementary.
“These additions will accommodate existing and projected future enrolments within school buildings rather than in portables as is cur-rently the case,” the district says in its report to trustees.
Additions are also required at Sardis second-ary and G.W. Graham middle secondary, which are both currently over capacity. G.W. Graham, which opened just six years ago, was designed to accommodate an addition, the report notes.
Additional classroom space may be required, particularly if residential development in the area picks up. However, a new school in the south end of the city is not currently on the books.
Staff recommend the district, “continue to monitor the City of Chilliwack’s development plan to determine whether a new elementary school and site are required on the south side of the district.”
That’s not the case in the Eastern Hillsides. That area, which is contained in the city’s recent-ly approved Eastern Hillsides Comprehensive Development Plan,” will need two new schools to accommodate an expected population growth that could top 6,400 people. District staff is recommending site acquisition and the even-tual construction of a kindergarten-to-Grade 6 school, as well as a kindergarten-to-Grade 9 facility.
Connecting with citizens in needJennifer FeinbergThe Progress
The hair styling, clothes, meals and foot care were all offered for free and were gratefully accepted by Chilliwack residents in need.
About 500 people attended The 3rd annual Chilliwack Connect Saturday, which linked up service volunteers, health agencies and local businesses with those struggling to survive and make ends meet.
A new set-up this year made things easier at the event held at the First Avenue Christian Assembly.
“It created a much smoother flow for people,” said Councillor Stewart McLean, who sits on the event steering committee. “There was a really positive vibe through-out the building.”
All of the resource people and volun-teers were kept hopping for most of the day, explaining a broad range of health and social services available in Chilliwack — and most importantly, how to access them.
“It’s about reaching people who wouldn’t otherwise know how or where to access these types of services,” said McLean.
“Every resource table saw more than 100 people each coming to see them throughout the day.”
One of the key community health issues they were able to address had to do with the chronic shortage of family doctors.
It was the first time they had volun-teers from the Chilliwack Community Policing office, as well as paramedics on hand, who were paired up with doctors.
“They were informing people who don’t have a family doctor how to access a nurse practitioner service at Chilliwack General.
“In many cases, this would be prefera-ble to calling for an ambulance, and tying up the resource when you don’t have to,” he said.
Another example was found at the kiosk staffed by Ann Davis Transition Society.
“People sometimes think the services at ADTS are strictly for women, such as the transition house service they provide, but there’s more to it. There is also an emphasis on counselling and programs for the whole family.”
Hair stylist Kim Eeg of Undine’s gives William Wingert a mohawk during the third annual Chilliwack Connect at First Avenue Christian Assembly on Saturday morning. More than 200 volunteers provided free haircuts, daycare, clothing, meals and more to those in need. JENNA HAUCK/ PROGRESS

NewsQuestion period reinstated at the lake after close voteJennifer FeinbergThe Progress
Members of the public are back officially asking questions at Cultus Lake Park Board meetings.
In a squeaker vote of 4-3, the Park Board voted Wednesday to restore public question period to the way it was.
The existing rules under the procedure bylaw will go back in effect at the park board, said Chair Bob McCrea, after the meeting.
“The decision brings back the question period we temporarily suspended in late June.”
It was such a controversial decision that some lakers told The Progress they lodged com-
plaints about it with the B.C. Ombudsperson’s office.
“I’m personally pleased with the results,” said the chair. “It means question period is back, and it’s here to stay.”
A prepared statement was read out by Commissioner Charlotte Hall before the Oct. 10 vote, explaining reasons for wanting question period reinstated, but under a question-only protocol, no commentary from the public, and held at the board’s discretion.
Her suggestions would have given the park board more control over the way the public could pro-vide input, citing disrespect shown to the board and staff in the past.
The ideas included changing the
wording from “shall” hold question period during board meetings, to “may,” and giving the park board the option of shutting down ques-tion period, if behaviour is deemed “improper” during a session.
As a result of the vote, a ques-tion period was held at the end of the evening meeting, according to McCrea.
Leaseholder Rick Williamson asked: “Who gave the Board the advice that it was OK to break your own laws and what was this advice based on?”
Board chair McCrea replied: “(CAO) Ron Campbell gave the advice.”
Campbell is quoted by Williamson in his emailed newslet-
ter as saying: “I got a verbal legal opinion that if the Board feels it is in the best interests of the Board or the community, then they can suspend question period.”
The legal opinion was offered by the firm of McMurdy and McCallister.
One laker thanked the com-missioners for effectively voting for free speech, and by voting to return to having a question period at board meetings.
The vote to reconsider the board’s June 27 decision to elimi-nate question period passed unani-mously.
The proposals to further restrict it were shot down by a major-ity vote of the board, by com-
missioners Bob McCrea, Carleton Toews, Malcolm Shanks and Larry Payeur. Commissioners Hall, Owen Skonberg and Sacha Peter voted for the more restricted mode of public input.
Some said they weren’t inter-ested in hearing critical comments.
But Commissioner Larry Payeur stated that “people are entitled” to hold opinions that are different from the board’s.
“People deserve to have an open and accountable board and ques-tion period is one way to do this,” he was quoted saying. “Disrespect has been on both sides.”

Dachshunds fostered out or adopted
Town Hall meetings set to start in rural ChilliwackJennifer FeinbergThe Progress
It’s a yearly opportunity to throw out some questions about the realities of rural life in the ‘Wack.
Town Hall meetings are set to start in four of Chilliwack’s rural neighbourhoods.
The October meetings are held in Rosedale, Greendale, Ryder Lake and Yarrow, hosted by the Rural Issues Advisory Committee of the City of
Chilliwack.Crowds range from more
than a dozen up to about 50 peo-ple, who ask city staff and com-mittee members questions on a range of subjects — everything from streetlights, potholes and roads, to water services, illegal hunting and speeding traffic.
Every year someone asks staff, from a taxpayer’s perspec-tive, why can’t their home be hooked up to city water ser-vices?
Every year the gentle
response is that since water ser-vice is a utility operated by the city, it technically has nothing to do with taxes, and would require collective investment by the property owners to the tune of tens of thousands of dollars for the upgrade, said a city staff member.
A PowerPoint presentation kicks off all the rural meetings to document the issues raised at last year’s meeting, with some feedback on the various issues provided in response by city
officials.All town hall meetings start
at 7 p.m. The first meeting is at the Yarrow Community Hall on Wednesday, Oct. 17.
The next night it’s Ryder Lake Hall on Oct. 18, Rosedale community school on Oct. 25, and wraps up on Oct. 30 in the Greendale firehall.

The nervous dachshunds tem-porarily housed at the Chilliwack SPCA have all found homes.
“They’re all gone,” said Ivanna Ferris, branch manager of the Chilliwack SPCA.
A handful of the small dogs are in foster care to be adopted after dental work and spaying, and the rest were adopted out after a flurry of media stories last week.
“What a wonderful response we had. So many people were eager to give these poor little critters a home. And this was despite the challenging behaviours they had, like not being house trained and the fearfulness.
The SPCA was busy all weekend.“It was crazy; overwhelming,” she
said.Almost 100 people contacted the
SPCA to say they were interested in these dogs.
“On Saturday, we had a lineup that was 15 people deep.”
They filled up waiting lists, and have future contacts for fosters. Some people made donations to help with the animals.
They had 10 dachshunds left in Chilliwack before the weekend, from a group of 18 in total that were surrendered to the shelter facility by a local resident who was breed-ing them.
“We also managed to adopt out other dogs and some kittens that were in the shelter,” said Ferris.
But she’s not surprised in the slightest by the huge outpouring of love for the animals in trouble from Chilliwack.
“Every time we have a story about dogs in this type of situation, the community is very supportive and eager to help.”

Chilliwack motorists have nine new ways to check highway condi-tions before hitting the road.
New highway web-cams were activated last week at both the Prest Road and Annis Road overpasses. In addition, a highway cam is now posted at the north end of the Rosedale Bridge on Highway 9.
The new cameras, which provide updated still-shots every two minutes, bring to a total of 12 in the Chilliwack-Agassiz area. They were part of 18 new highway webcams acti-vated by the transpor-tation ministry just in time for winter.
A total of 30 new webcams will be added to the network this year, the ministry says, bringing the number of webcam images avail-able online to over 250. All are expected to be installed and operating by winter, giving motor-ists a real-time view of weather and road condi-tions.
The cameras are part of a series of tools avail-able to motorists on the transportation minis-
try’s DriveBC website (www.drivebc.ca).
The goal, says Mary Polak, minister of trans-portation and infra-structure, is to help motorists “know before they go.”
Said Polak: “Our DriveBC webcams are an invaluable resource for anyone travelling our provincial high-ways, and these new webcams and features will provide motorists with additional tools to plan their trip and travel safely.”
DriveBC also features a Route Planner, which has been upgraded to take into consideration any delays, road clo-sures and border waits along the way. In addi-tion to showing them as icons on the map, the turn-by-turn directions include the information on any highway mes-sage signs associated with that route, and webcam images to give motorists a full picture.
There are mobile (tab-let and smart phone) versions of DriveBC’s Route Planner, too. They provide the same information in the turn-by-turn directions seen
on a desktop, and use geo-location to fill in the start point. (The map has not been included for smart phones due to their display limita-tions.)
The other Chilliwack-area highway cams are located at the Evans Road overpass, Bridal Falls and at the junc-tion of Highway 7 and Highway 9 in Agassiz.

A child died last week. She didn’t have to. But 15-year-old Amanda Todd was so cruelly vic-timized by bullying that she took her own life last Wednesday.
In a heart-wrenching online video posted a month ago, she told her stark story on simple, hand-written cards. It was almost too painful to watch. She had been swept up by Internet chat rooms, sidelined by flattery, and was then persuaded to flash her breasts. That image was sent to everyone she knew and across the Internet. That single mistake became her head-on crash with the virtual world and the real one.
Her life spiralled into a night-mare of taunts, a beating, and endless harassments by both cyber and on-the-ground bullies and tyrants. And somewhere out there is the original creep who
started this mess. In tow were the low-life nothings who contin-ued to drive Amanda on and who, even now, continue to post cruel
comments on line.Where does
this level of bul-lying come from? The Internet with its chat rooms and social sites shel-tered in a lawless unchartered cyber world is one place to start. People can say anything
about anyone and never face the consequences. And what about the accountability of sites like Facebook? Bullies can hide behind faceless anonymity for years.
There have always been bul-lies. But when many of us were growing up, a swift upper cut
to the nose took care of them. Law authorities might call that assault today. Back then – at least pre-Internet days - we’d call it justice. Some healthy, assertive push-back made sure the gig was up. Not so now. Bullies attract the morally-challenged swarm crowd, those clones who stand around jeering, pushing the bul-lies on, and videoing images on their cell phones to upload to YouTube for millions to see. Remember the 16-year-old girl who police say was gang raped at a rave party in Pitt Meadows in 2010? The kid who posted the images got 12 months’ probation this year. How does that compen-sate for the level of torment done to a teenager? Charges against the one man accused of sexual assault were stayed.
The cruelty by children and youth toward their peers is a
dark world that is often mar-ginalized. We know it’s there. We don’t know how to process it. The swarm mob reminds me of the murder of Rena Virk in 1997 when teenagers, later called the Shoreline Six, severely beat her before she was murdered by Kelly Ellard.
Amanda’s tragedy is society’s tragedy. Too often you hear of children taking their own lives because bullies drove them to a dark world that they could nei-ther cope with nor escape from. Anxiety, fear, depression, zero self-worth, and loneliness all ate away at their psyche and their soul, driving them further and further into isolation.
Tweens (8-12 year olds) and young teenage children are at high risk for sexual assault and our society provides the ‘tools’ - films, music, magazines, fashion,
and cosmetics all emphasizing their youthful sex appeal. And even before that, there are those hideous beauty contests for pre-schoolers. For many people, they are nothing short of child abuse.
Amanda Dodd’s story has gone viral. Her crisis will be raised in the House of Commons this week with NDP MP Dany Morin calling for a national bully-ing prevention strategy. Premier Christy Clark, who championed pink shirt day, was all over the media about bullying last week. As parents, schools, and families search for solutions, the RCMP has begun an investigation into Amanda’s suicide, drawing on tips and tracking the original unnamed ‘he’ in her video.
That person needs to be found and held to account. Because a child died last week.
Tough action needed to bring bullies to justiceLOCALLY GLOBAL
Gag law defeat welcomedAt least one of the election gag laws has been thrown out.The B.C. Court of Appeal has decided that an attempt by the provincial gov-
ernment to control free speech in the period before a provincial election isn’t constitutional. This after the government tried several times to restrict how much money third parties can spend in the 60-day window before an election campaign officially begins. An attempt by Victoria to cut that down to 40 days didn’t work either.
Governments and political parties have interfered in the election process far too much. Elections are not the property of politicians — they are the property of citizens. They are the one chance that citizens have to determine who is in power, what policies will be brought in and what changes can be made.
Yet at the federal and provincial level, election spending has been restricted for years. Not only are individual candidates restricted in their spending, which does at least level the playing field a bit, but individuals, businesses, unions and interest groups have severe restrictions on how much they can spend to send messages to voters.
This is what the province was trying to do in the pre-election period — mainly to cut off messages from anti-government groups. The BC Liberals were aiming at the B.C. Government Employees Union and the B.C. Teachers Federation, who ran pungent anti-government messages before the 2009 elec-tion officially began.
Individuals, organizations and businesses should have every right to spend money before and during campaigns.
Much is being said at present about the 25th anniversary of free trade. The 1988 federal election was fought on that issue. During it, both pro- and anti-free trade organizations spent a lot of money to get their messages out.
It was a hard-fought election, on one big issue, and the additional messages from all the third parties were an integral part of the debate.
It’s good that the courts have struck down restrictions during the pre-election period. It would be nice if a court would strike down the restrictions which apply during federal and provincial elections as well. The only purpose they serve is to keep the process dominated by political parties, and to severely restrict the rights of citizens during what should be a free-ranging debate.

Chilliwack firefighters earn praiseAlmost two weeks ago now we
experienced what one never wish-es to; a house fire broke out in the second storey of our home, in a room usually occupied by children. Now, due to some circumstances that could best be described as unusual, those normally in those rooms were absent, and we are extremely grateful for that, and for the fact that no one was hurt. That is not why I write to you, though.
I am writing because I am in awe of the demonstration of care and concern, professionalism and sensitivity displayed by the fire-fighters who responded to the call we placed to 911. Even though we live out on Fairfield Island, the first truck arrived quickly, and was followed shortly by others who were able to get the fire under con-trol. This was impressive, but the impression made on our children and us was something entirely dif-ferent.
Once the fire was out, we had a nasty job ahead of us to remove a large amount of perishable items from the first floor. These men, who so willingly risk their lives and
are worthy of much respect (more than they get, I’d wager) stayed and helped us fill boxes with can-ning, move items out of the now dripping first floor, sweep up bro-ken glass, wash fire suppressant of the driveway with our garden hoses, and more…
If you have ever experienced the devastation a fire causes then you know the state of shock and the incredible processing that goes on in your own soul; and so to receive this kind of help and compassion from the firefighters was so incred-ibly affecting that there are barely words to describe it.
It was troubling to me, however, as I had a conversation with one of the firefighters by the tanker when he explained to me that most of the calls they receive are due to fool-ishness and vandalism – dumpster fires, brush fires, cars set ablaze etc., and it made me hurt for the noble hearts of these men who are not looking for praise or glory, but to do what they know to be good and right. For many to disregard that and take advantage, or even waste the efforts of such devoted
men and women seems irreverent and unjust.
I take hope and courage in the fact that Chilliwack is home to brave and good people, and that we need to rally behind these when we recognize them, and not just passively assume that they are ‘just doing their job’, because a community does not exist when people ‘do their job’ - it is created by people who care enough to go above and beyond the ‘job descrip-tion’ to respond from the heart.
As such I wish to thank and appreciate not just those who responded to the fire that night, but to all of their comrades and fellow professionals like them who do what they do because there is still character and dignity in them. It brought care and comfort to us, and that is of incredible value. Chilliwack ought to be proud to have such ones watching out for our safety!
To all of you involved that night, thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We greatly appreciate and respect your lives put at risk for our safety.

Yesterday I had the pleasure of attending an all day event (Chilliwack Connect, Oct. 13) at First Ave. Christian Assembly church. This event cel-ebrates and offers tan-gible support to those in our community who are struggling to make ends meet.
Fabulous food was served starting with a nutritious breakfast that got people off to a great start.
Many volunteers offered their time and talents to bring a smile to many faces with p e d i c u r e s , h a i r c u t s , portraits,prizes,clothing, and tables brimming with lots of great, free stuff.
This event is anticipat-ed for many months by those who benefit from such a great community event.
In talking with people at a local shelter,I consis-tently have heard people
say they wish they could afford the services of a chiropractor or massage therapist.
But there is no way that cost can be absorbed in their budget.
It was great to see and hear how the many aches and pains were attended too by a local chiroprac-tor offering their services for nothing more than a smile. I was touched First Avenue church opened their building to the com-
munity, I can only imagine how much time went into the clean up.
It was humbling to enter the sacristy and see people having hair-cuts and pedicures in this place of worship, now that’s an open and apos-tolic church.
As a fellow community member, I thank all of you for helping to make Chilliwack a place of inclu-sion and hope.

Another fabulous event for Chilliwack
I’ve been following the news reports and interviews on TV about the E. coli contamination at XL Foods. I find it very upsetting that almost a month after the Canadian Food Inspection Agency found out there was contaminated meat com-ing from XL Foods, meat is still being recalled. I also find it upsetting that the only reason tainted meat was discovered was because American food inspectors found it. I am upset that the Agriculture Ministry sat on
the information while the Canadian public were exposed to possible contaminated meat. I am totally upset that Canadian food supply is not safe because of the Harper government’s policies of downsiz-ing agencies that protect Canadians.
The Harper government doesn’t mind spending huge amounts of money to entertain their G7 buddies or giving their senior bureaucrats and MP’s lucrative travel expenses but when it comes to protecting
Canadians, they want to cut back to the point where the health and safe-ty of Canadians is jeopardized. The Harper government spin doctors are working overtime covering up the problems they created and are putting the blame everywhere but at themselves.
Hopefully Canadians will remem-ber how the Harper government handled the safety of our food sup-ply in the next election. I I will.

The stars will be out at the Chilliwack Business Excellence Awards this Saturday night.
The Academy Award-themed event promises an evening of inspiration and celebration as the Chilliwack Chamber of Commerce salutes the best in business and community service.
The red carpet is being rolled out as the awards gala returns to a formal evening of dining and recognition.
Dinner will be a plated, sit-down affair, with entertainment provided by the Stewart Young Ensemble.
Hosts for the evening will be the popular morning radio show team of Scott Riley and Lisa Stevens.
The front runners of this prestigious award event reflect the incredible ambition of the Chilliwack community and the success of its individuals and businesses. (See this year’s nomi-nees on page 9.)
“We’re proud to salute the people and organizations whose groundbreaking ideas and com-munity involvement are reshap-ing how we all experience Chilliwack,” says Kevin Gemmell, President of the Chilliwack Chamber of Commerce.
Proclaimed “the event of the year,” the 18th Annual Business Excellence Awards is the lead-ing Chilliwack event honour-ing business excellence in the community. The awards evening is presented by the Chilliwack Chamber of Commerce, an orga-nization with over 600 members.
This year’s event will also fea-ture many choice silent auction items, including a fishing trip. Great Canadian Casinos, mean-while, is offering tickets for two to a performance of your choice at the River Rock Casino, and a chance to meet the performer.
The event caps of Small
Business Week in Chilliwack. Small and medium-sized busi-
nesses are an important part of BC’s economic engine, says the Chamber’s executive director, Patti MacAhonic. These employ-ers account for 98 per cent of all businesses in the province, and generate over 30 per cent of
B.C.’s gross domestic product (GDP).
Small businesses contrib-ute directly to growing vibrant communities around the prov-ince by tapping into local tal-ent and investing directly into the places they work and live. The Chilliwack Chamber of Commerce works with local busi-nesses to support and stimulate our local economy.
As the key representative of the small business commu-nity, the Chilliwack Chamber of Commerce actively listens to business needs and communi-cates them directly to all levels of government in conjunction with the other Chamber members and the BC Chamber of Commerce. The Chamber network extends across BC and Canada, which ensures that businesses are con-nected to all levels of govern-ment.
This year’s Chilliwack Chamber of Commerce Business Excellence Awards are at the Tzeachten Hall, 45855 Promontory Road. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. For ticket information, call the Chamber office at (604) 793-4323.

A head-on collision has claimed the life of a 67-year-old Chilliwack woman.
The incident occurred in Abbotsford, just before 10 a.m. on Monday morn-ing. Emergency crews responded to a two-vehi-cle crash on the No. 11 bypass just south of the Old Clayburn Road over-pass.
The lone male driver
of a van was airlifted by B.C. Ambulance to Royal Columbian Hospital where he continues to receive medical treat-ment.
The lone female driver of the passenger vehicle died of her injuries at Abbotsford Regional Hospital.
Abbotsford Police Sgt. Casey Vinet said it appears that the white van, which was travelling south on the bypass, may have “drifted over the centre line,” striking the other vehicle.
The investigation into the cause of the crash is ongoing.
The district is also looking at ways to make better use of its existing schools. Enrolment at A.D. Rundle, for exam-ple, has declined “signifi-cantly” and the school is currently under capac-ity. The district plans to review its educational programing at the school to see if there are ways to
attract new students.Change could also
be coming to CHANCE Alternative School, locat-ed on an isolated plot of agricultural land on Prest Road. Recommends the report: “The dis-trict would benefit from reviewing CHANCE Alternate School to deter-mine the appropriateness of its programming and physical placement in the
district.”The school district’s
current land holdings should also be reviewed, the report said. The dis-trict owns several proper-ties that either once held schools, or whose use could change.
For example, Fraser Valley Distance Education will be moving into the new Chilliwack Secondary School once construction is complete in 2013. The district plans to review options for the site, “including trade off of this site for other land that would be more appropriate for an elementary or elementa-ry-middle school.”
In Rosedale, construc-tion of a new school
has left the district in a similar situation. Staff recommend the district determine if any existing programs can be located at the site vacated by Rosedale elementary. If there is none the district should consider trading the property for land that could accommodate schools for the eastern hillsides.
Determining the fate of other district-owned properties, like five acres on Richards Avenue and the former school site at Ryder Lake should wait until the City of Chilliwack completes its review of the Official Community Plan. That process is expected to be done late next year.

It wouldn’t come as a sur-prise to many local dairy farmers that a little music can change the mood in a barn.
But most would be sur-prised to find a live sympho-ny orchestra playing among the bedding, bales and dairy cows. That’s exactly the scene that unfolded at the Valedoorn Farm in Agassiz on Tuesday, when a quartet of classical-ly-trained musicians, led by Coast Symphony Orchestra conductor Edette Gagné, dropped by to play for Tom Hoogendoorn’s herd.
It was a symphonic way
to open up a new online ini-tiative called Music Makes More Milk, a contest based on the common observation among dairy farmers that cows respond positively to music. It’s been designed and car-ried out by the B.C. Dairy Association.
British Columbians are invited to try their hand at composing original music for a burgeoning new audience of aficionados: milk-producing dairy cows.
“Over time, B.C. dairy farm-ers get to know their cows well. They understand their
behaviour, their moods, their likes and dislikes,” says Dave Eto, Executive Director for the BC Dairy Association. “One thing they’ve come to learn is that happy cows produce more milk.”
Music Makes More Milk contestants will use an online music composition tool to cre-ate original songs to play for the cows. The tunes of semi-finalist contestants — deter-mined through a public vot-ing system — will have their compositions played directly to cows on a B.C. dairy farm. Ultimately, it is the cows that will serve as the final judg-es of the contest, identifying
an overall winner based on the highest milk production achieved while listening to the various contest entries. The winning contestant will receive a trip for four to the 55th Annual Grammy Awards in Los Angeles.
In order to prime the cows for the contest the quartet per-formed an “opening act” of Mozart numbers.
The six-week “Music Makes More Milk” contest launched to the public on Oct. 10. Everyone is welcome to submit a tune at www.music-makesmoremilk.com, but only British Columbians may enter the contest.
The BC Dairy Association (BCDA) is a not-for-profit organization that represents the B.C. dairy industry, by advancing the legitimate busi-ness interests of B.C.’s dairy farmers and by raising aware-ness of the dynamic, economi-cally sustainable nature of the industry, which consistently supplies high-quality products to consumers. It implements innovative advertising, promo-tion and nutrition education programs and advocates for producers’ concerns such as the environment, animal wel-fare, product safety, employee training, trade and regulatory matters.
A quartet of classically-trained musicians visited the Valedoorn Farm in Agassiz on Tuesday morning to play live classical music for Tom Hoogendoorn’s diary herd.

Communityn Toy Run
It was a soggy affair, but more than 150 motor-cyclists delivered toys for kids in need during the Fraser Valley Toy Run on Sunday. The annu-al event, which collects items for Christmas bureaus in the Fraser Valley, left from meeting points in Mission and Chiliwack. Riders then converged at the Fraser Valley Auto Mall in Abbotsford and travelled from there to the Ag-Rec Building. Donations collected from the event will be distributed in Abbotsford, Mission, Chilliwack, Hope and Agassiz this Christmas.

Flavours of the season at Harvest Store and CafeAs the seasons change,
so too does the menu at Harvest Cafe.
The unique cafe is tailor-ing its offerings with the autumnal foods that both warm the heart and satisfy the soul.
But innovation is noth-ing new at Harvest Store and Cafe. The business cre-ated a stir when it opened in May, not just because of its food, but because of its unique ensemble of home decor and interior stylings.
Harvest traces it lineage back to the successful Objekts, which operated on Wellington for years. When owners Ron Romeyn and Kevin Klassen decided to relocate to Mill Street, they also decided to rein-vent their business.
Their inspiration came from a recent trip to New York where they toured ABC Carpet and Home. That Manhattan institution successfully pairs 10 floors of home furnishings with an awarding winning res-taurant.
Refined to a more prac-tical Chilliwack scale, Harvest Store and Cafe is a destination for home
accessories, bathing prod-ucts, kitchenware, jewelry, fashion and food.
For Romeyn, a return to the kitchen was a return
to his roots. He trained as a baker, so he’s at home in the kitchen in the early mornings, preparing the fresh baked goods that are
served each day.The menu is ever evolv-
ing, Romeyn says. “We’re constantly changing things here,” he says above the
clatter of the busy kitchen.Their menu ideas come
through research, collabo-ration and a simple love of well prepared food.
Right now, the baking has a decidedly Halloween flavor, but visions of Christmas treats are also dancing in Romeyn’s head.
Soon, there will be other changes. Starting Oct. 29 Harvest will be open for breakfast, offering every-thing from the traditional bacon and eggs “and an amazing farmers sausage,” to waffles, candied bacon and even a homemade gra-nola.
Other menu changes include regular daily spe-cials, like the mac and cheese.
Romeyn says Harvest tries to source its offerings as locally and organically as possible. For example, it recently started acquir-ing its organic chicken and turkey through The Town Butcher on Yale. The fla-vour, says Romeyn, is sim-ply outstanding.
Most menu items come with a healthy twist. Even the cinnamon buns are made with whole wheat, Romeyn says with a laugh.
Harvest Store and Cafe is located at 9381 Mill Street. For more informa-tion call 604.392.5501.
The owners of Harvest Store and Café, Ron Romeyn and Kevin Klassen, shut down their old store, Objekts on Wellington, and moved to Mill Street to start a new and different business this summer. JENNA HAUCK/ PROGRESS

Owner Louis De Jaeger, and the staff at Bravo, unveiled their restaurant’s new expansion to seat an addi-tional 30 people (seen behind him). JENNA HAUCK/ PROGRESS
Bravo restaurant expands in Downtown ChilliwackA vibrant downtown restaurant with signature cocktails and
an award-winning wine list has expanded.Bravo Restaurant and Lounge recently underwent renova-
tions allowing for a brand-new 400-square-foot addition.They did it by taking down a wall in their sophisticated
eatery, and taking over the adjacent storefront space formerly occupied by Bill the Barber on Yale Road east.
“We’ve always had our eye on that room, right from day one,” said owner Louis De Jager.
That was nine years ago.The popular local barber had been cutting hair there for 30
years before retiring a few years ago.“That gave us the opportunity,” he said. But that was also precisely the time when the global econo-
my started to go south.So they bided their time, waiting for a chance to expand. The owners are now thrilled to welcome new and loyal cus-
tomers into their new digs designed by Wade King, just as they head into their second decade of serving Chilliwackians with taste.
“We really wanted to meet the needs of the 30+ crowd who are looking for a classy atmosphere downtown to enjoy a glass of wine and a nibbly,” he said.
“We really listened to what our customers told us they were looking for.”
Along with the reno, they’re also opening their doors slightly earlier at 5 p.m., from Tuesday to Saturday, offering a full-dinner menu ‘til 10 and late-night plates until 11 p.m. Live music will be performed every other Saturday night starting at 8 p.m.
The expansion is a gesture of supreme faith in the future of Chilliwack’s downtown.
“I think it’s crucial for an anchor business like ourselves, to continue to invest meaningfully in the downtown core,” De Jager said. “That’s why we’re starting small and building slowly.”

The second year of running a Plant A Row/Grow A Row program in Chilliwack has yielded more than 2313 pounds of locally grown pro-duce to the Chilliwack Salvation Army Soup Kitchen and Care and Share Centre.
“A big thank you to all our sponsors from 2012 who helped make this possible,” said Alanna Clempson, PARGAR coordina-tor for Food Matters Chilliwack.
Saturday was the last drop-off event of the season.
“Beyond that we would like to thank our volunteers who came and helped out through out the year and to our growers without whom there would be no program, you guys rock! Thank you, Chilliwack!”

The GW Graham Grizzlies answered the bell in a must-win football game Wednesday afternoon, beat-ing the Samuel Robertson Titans 19-6 to keep their playoff hopes alive.
The junior varsity squad earned the victory in hos-tile territory, leaving Maple Ridge with their regular sea-son record evened up at 2-2.
SRT’s plan for the game was a simple one.
Play punishing, physical football and punch the new kids in the face. Through 12 minutes, that strat-egy looked like a winner. Throwing offensive creativi-ty out the window, the Titans
lined up play after play after play, and ran the ball.
Tyrel Ogloff hauled the rock, plowing over or run-ning around Grizzly defend-ers. He opened the scoring with 23.8 seconds left in the first quarter, rumbling into the endzone from 10 yards out to give SRT a 6-0 lead.
Ogloff almost doubled the Titan lead on the next series, only to see a 28 yard touchdown run wiped out by a holding penalty.
It was a turnover that turned the tide in this one.
On the fourth SRT series, quarterback Dan Ferro bob-bled a snap and Grizzlies cornerback Austin Creasy
pounced on the ball.Set up at their own 44
yard line, the GWG offence finally found their groove.
Kirkland Kennedy start-ed the drive hauling in a 15 yard pass from quarter-back Jordan Breuker, and Breuker moved the chains again with back to back runs off left tackle.
Facing fourth and six deep in SRT territory, Breuker carried again, trucking down to the four yard line. He finished the drive himself, barreling into the endzone to knot the score at 6-6.
On the next SRT series, Ferro chucked up a game-
changing interception to Grizzly safety Terrell Sparvier. Playing cen-ter field, Sparvier fielded Ferro’s punt-like pass and took off 60 yards in the other direction.
With 45.5 seconds left in the first half, GWG had the lead.
The Grizzlies spent most of the second half looking for the dagger, but the offence couldn’t find traction.
Breuker coughed up an interception to Titan cor-ner Scott Murdoch, and a Tristan Davis fumble snuffed out another drive. Illegal procedure calls forced the Grizzlies into way to many
third-and-loooooooogs.But the defence held firm,
and produced another game-changing turnover midway through the fourth quarter.
SRT had the ball at the GWG 30 after a long scam-per by Emmerson Kot. But the Titans fumbled on the next play, with Grizzlies line-backer Cyrus Tommy taking the ball into SRT territory.
Breuker started the deci-sive drive with a 15 yard run to the Titan 29 yard line, but he came up limping, his right thigh injured on the tackle.
Backup quarterback Sparvier came into the game, and the offence kept
rolling. Running like some crazy little padded smurf, the little QB carried twice to get the ball inside the 10, then finished the drive with a perfect pass to Kennedy. Treyvon Walsh added the convert kick to put the game away.
The Grizzlies sit third in the seven team AA Eastern conference, with two weeks off before their next game against the Abbotsford Collegiate Panthers. That one’s at home Oct. 24, as is the regular season fina-le, Oct. 31 versus the Pitt Meadows Marauders.
Both games will be played at GW Graham.
Grizzlies take down Titans in physical football match
Two goals from Austin Plevy and 34 saves from Mitch Gillam helped the Chilliwack Chiefs to a 4-1 home ice win over the visiting Vernon Vipers Saturday night at Prospera Centre.
Josh Hansen got the home side started in this one, opening the scor-ing just 3:42 in on a Chilliwack power play.
With Vernon’s Marc Hetnik parked in the penalty box (cross-checking), Hansen beat Viper keeper Austin Smith on the wraparound for his team-leading seventh of the season.
His Chiefs doubled their lead four minutes later on a goal by second-year forward Jaret Babych. The 18-year-old lit the lamp for the first time this season, unleashing a top-shelf wrist shot from the right faceoff dot.
The teams traded goals in an enter-taining and evenly played middle frame.
Penalty troubles helped the Vipers cut into Chilliwack’s lead early in the period.
First, Shay Laurent was flagged for holding. Then Kiefer McNaughton was sent off for slashing, giving Vernon a two-man advantage for 1:25. Adam Tambellini made them pay,
one-timing a Brett Corkey pass past Gillam from a sharp angle to get the Snakes within one.
But the Chiefs answered back with a power play goal of their own at 7:39. Austin Plevy crashed the net, and from his belly, swept a loose puck home for his sixth of the year.
In the closing minutes, McNaughton and Vernon’s Geoff Crisfield squared off for the third fight of the game. McNaughton land-ed some left jabs and body shots, but Crisfield gave as good as he got in a split decision.
The Chiefs efficiently nursed the lead in the final frame, keeping the Vernon offence under wraps. Trail native Craig Martin had the best Viper chance, beating Gillam but not the right post on a shot from the left faceoff dot.
At the other end, it was Plevy scor-ing the fourth Chilliwack goal with just under seven minutes remaining.
Hansen did the heavy lifting, car-rying the puck from the left corner to the front of the Vernon net.
Hansen lost the puck, but Plevy was there to clean up, punching the puck past Austin to wrap up the scor-ing.
Chiefs stretch unbeaten string to six

HISDAL, MSM, CD
Verner AlfredJanuary 24, 1933 -October 8, 2012
Verner Al-fred Hisdal died Monday night in his home in Yar-row as he wished. Vern was 79 and struggling with complications from heart disease. He is sur-vived by his wife of 59 years, Joan Hisdal; his four children, Howard (wife Dana), David (Joanne), Gregory (Katherine) and Connie-Joan (Tiger); ten grand-children, Scott, Kate, Leah (Rob), Suzanne, Alexan-der, Elisabeth, Holly, Heather, Anna and Sarah; and one great-grandson, Damien.
Dad grew up near Rocky Mountain House and in Wetaskiwin, Alberta, during the Depression as an only child. At sixteen he joined the Canadian Army and served as an infantryman in the Royal Canadian Regiment where he parachuted into the Arctic on a Cold War training exercise. He was released as too young for the Korean War, worked briefly on the oil rigs and then as an orderly at the Ponoka Mental Hospital where he met his wife, Joan, who was working there as a registered nurse. Dad rejoined the army as a military policeman in the Canadian Provost Corps. He was posted to London, Eng-land, in 1956, and soon after to Germany then back to Canada to Edmonton. He was most proud of his one year tour of duty in the United Nations Emergency Force in Egypt where on the beach in the Gaza Strip he single-handedly intercepted an illegal arms shipment and earned the Meritorious Service Medal. He also served in Ottawa and Camp Borden in Ontario. His last posting was to Camp Chilliwack where he retired from the Canadian Forces af-ter 25 years of service at the rank of sergeant. He went on to have another career in the BC Corrections Service at the forest camps in the Chilliwack River Valley where he was a sawmill officer.
Dad always found time to hunt and fish. He liked to hunt moose and grizzly bears as well as mountain sheep and deer. He was an excel-lent shot and won trophies for his shooting at the Connaught Ranges in Ottawa. He loved dogs and always had one or two around the house. He was also a golfer and active in his community of Yarrow. He served in the Conservative Party Riding Association and was a member of the Legion. He instilled the values of hard work and ambition in all of his children.
The funeral service for Vern Hisdal was held Saturday afternoon, 13 October 2012, at 1:30 p.m. in St. Paul’s Lu-theran Church in Chilliwack followed by an internment in the Yarrow Cemetery.
WORLEYTomas Larkin
August 4, 1978 – September 23, 2012
It is with very heavy hearts that we announce the Loss of Tom. He was my son, a brother and a good friend to many who knew him. In Tom’s younger years he loved his skate boarding, fishing and BMX’g. Tom al-ways looked forward to our annual trips to Pender Har-bour where he fished, rowed the little dinghies and lots of swimming and exploring. He was a great help in the garden, mowing lawns and always stacking wood. Tom was very artistic and always surprised you with a new pic-ture or idea. Tom was prede-ceased by Cis and Pop (Ron & Myrt Tetreault) and his Uncle Ronnie. He is survived by his Mom, Paula and brother, Pete. The three dogs, Sophie, Shadow & Peppie miss him dearly. We wish to thank all the many friends and family who came over and offered their kindness and help, very much appreciated. There will be no service but we will have a gathering some time down the road in his remembrance.
We little knew that morn-ing that God was going to call your name. In life we loved you dearly, in death we do the same. It broke our hearts to lose you. You did not go alone, for part of us went with you the day God called you home. You left us peaceful memories. Your love is still our guide and though we can-not see you, you are always at our side. Our family chain is broken and nothing seems the same, but as God calls us one by one the chain will link again. Be in peace sweet Tom, we pray you are being held in the arms of all the family wait-ing for you.
