BIA surveys membership Blueberry festival, Santa parade under review

Players practice their pitching technique during a three-day baseball ‘Super Camp’ hosted by Cloverdale Minor Baseball and Big League Experience at Cloverdale Ball Park. About 60 players aged nine to 18 took part in the clinic last week, where instructors Marty Lehn and Jimmy Volcano were joined by Bob Didier, a former Major League catcher and coach, and Albie Lopez, a Major League pitcher who is the current pitching coach with Toronto Blue Jays’ scout team.
By Jennifer Lang The Cloverdale Business Improvement Association is asking members to complete a survey that will help determine the association’s direction as it creates a new, five-year strategic plan. Once complete, the plan will also help with financial planning, members were told last week. “The purpose of the survey is to determine the areas of importance for both the property owners and business owners in the Cloverdale town centre BIA area,” executive director Paul Orazietti said. The association is planning to post a modified version of the survey on its website for the general public, Orazietti added. Among the items being reviewed are special events like the annual Blueberry Festival, which was put on
hiatus this summer, and the Santa Parade. In early April, the association voted to postpone two signature events this year due to budget constraints – the Cloverdale Blueberry Festival and the Halloween Costume parade, two popular events that draw huge crowds to the historic town centre. Soaring operational costs and lack of sponsorships were a main reason cited at the Cloverdale BIA’s Annual General Meeting, where the cancellation of the two events was called a one-time correction. The April 6 AGM was called to approve a revised 2015 budget, and hold a re-election of officers. The City of Surrey had deemed there was insufficient detail provided to the association’s membership on See MEMBERS / Page 2
A night of fear eased by community concern By Jennifer Lang When a series of shots blasted through the window of a popular Clayton business two weekends ago, it was a terrifying act of violence that interrupted the night shift at a local bakery and caught revelers leaving their local pub by surprise. No one was injured in the July 12 incident at Clayton Crossing that Surrey RCMP are calling a random act, but “the shock of a shooting is very traumatic,” says Special Cst. Dennis Bell, a community safety officer with Surrey RCMP who is a familiar face to business owners and residents in the neighbourhood. After the initial police investigation wrapped up, Bell was among those offering support and sympathy to COBS Bread owner Leanne Hosler and her staff.
Another employee was just arriving on the scene for the start of a shift when several shots were fired into the window of the bakery, located at #103 18775 Fraser Highway, just after 2 a.m. A baker was who working alone at the time was not hurt. Meanwhile, the parking lot was filling up with patrons spilling out from Dublin Crossing pub, a Saturday night crowd that was unaware of the potential danger unleashed by stray bullets fired from 188 Street. It’s fortunate no one was hurt. “For sure we were scared,” says Hosler, who was called to her business as police responded. “I think everyone’s startled. You think, it doesn’t happen close to home, but crime is

everywhere,” she told The Reporter. It didn’t take long for news to spread to “our community on the hill,” she said. By 7 a.m., regulars and neighbours were showing up to see if everyone was okay. “They came up in their pyjamas. They came up first thing in the morning to see if there was anything they could do and anything we needed,” says Hosler. “Our phone rang, non-stop. We weren’t prepared. So many people cared.” Some of the regulars brought fresh fruit, a touching gesture that boosted spirits, she added. “It’s not fun, yeah,” she said, recalling the stress of the incident and its immediate aftermath. Violence “is something to be concerned
about,” Hosler said. “But the community itself cares a lot about where we live and will do anything to support each other. It was awesome.” She’s also very grateful to staff for their exceptional response, calmly ensuring the establishment was fully functional within just a few hours. Hosler is also grateful for the ongoing support of the Cloverdale/Port Kells District 4 office of the Surrey RCMP. As a business owner at Clayton Crossing, Hosler participates in community policing initiatives, such as monthly breakfast meetings where businesses can raise concerns with police and keep up-to-date.

Funeral for slain realtor being held today By Kevin Diakiw A funeral has been scheduled for a popular realtor who was gunned down at his Cloverdale home during an attempted break in. The family of Colin Hill announced on Facebook there will
be a service at Victory Memorial Park Funeral Centre on Wednesday (July 22). On July 12, Hill confronted a 22-yearold man trying to break into his home in the 16500-block of 64 Avenue just before
midnight. During the confrontation, the suspect shot and killed the 42-year-old. The attacker then fled in a stolen vehicle. Hours later in Burnaby, RCMP were called to reports of a man brandishing a

this year’s budget, as presented July 9, 2014. The revised budget allocates more resources towards beautification projects – such as gateway signage at Highway 15 and Highway 10, and attracting new businesses. The newly-announced membership survey asks respondents to rate how important parades and festivals are to their business when it comes to engaging the community. The online survey also asks members to rate the relative importance of BIA initiatives in terms of priority, assigning “least important to top priority� to such varied activities as beautification, economic development, communications, crime and safety, along with special events like the Blueberry Festival, Market Days – an ongoing monthly summer initia-
tive – the December Santa Parade and more. A follow-up question asks how important each beautification project is, from hanging baskets along 176 Street and promised gateway signage at the Highway 15/10 intersection, to landscaping, public art and historic street signs. The survey asks respondents to rank public events in terms of importance, from Rodeo Days activities (Bed Races, Chili Cook-off, and the Rodeo parade) to the Blueberry Festival, Market Days, Halloween Costume Parade, Santa Parade and Christmas shopping spree. The survey also asks what members think the Cloverdale BIA should concentrate on to improve the local economy, whether it’s adding more retail and boutique stores, more grocery stores, attracting new residents to the historic town centre, or adding parking and more service-oriented businesses.

“We know the world’s a big place,� she said. “Crime exists. We like to be aware, and to share. The community should know that we meet, we talk as a group [of merchants], we pay attention. That keeps us all safer.� In speaking out about the incident, Hosler said she wanted the wider community to know about the outpouring of concern
and support, and to share “a nice positive.� “Our community police are awesome,� she says, recalling how Cst. Bell performed a follow up after the initial incident. “We stay pretty close. When times like this happen, yes, it’s unfortunate, but the community pulls together.� Hosler and her husband purchased the business in 2010. She says it’s important to not
feel paralyzed by crime, and instead channel energy into knowing your customers, neighbours and to become involved with community policing initiatives. “We talk to our regulars,� she said. “We meet with community police. We talk about things to watch. There are eyes out there. We are there to protect each other and to support each other.�

Music fest organizers embrace their roots Gone Country returns to Cloverdale for third consecutive year By Regan Hasegawa This Saturday, Cloverdale will be host to the third annual Gone Country music festival. Following the past two-years’ overwhelming popularity, the festival is back at the Bill Reid Millennium Amphitheatre, featuring headliners Blackjack Billy, Tebey and Karen Lee Batten. Although the musical festival is only in its third year, the story behind the festivities goes back much further. Twins Cancer Fundraising, the organization that puts on the event, was started by Cloverdale natives Jamie and Chris Ruscheinski 15 years ago. After losing both their mother and good friend Shaun Gauthier to cancer the brothers decided to take action and fight back. At the age of 18, the twins held their first fundraiser in their dad’s backyard, an event that generated more than $22,000 in a single night. After several other successful fundraisers, the twins decided to embrace their Cloverdale roots and go country. Last year’s event had more than 4,000 people in attendance, raising $215,000. The funds raised by the organization helps charities such as the BC Cancer Agency, Canadian Cancer Society, Canuck Place Children’s Hospice and Easter Seals centres. Funds from this year’s concert will support the BC Cancer Foundation in purchasing an endoscopic ultrasound processor. This innovative probe will provide clinicians with detailed images of patients’ internal organs, which will in turn provide better detection of a patient’s cancer. Twins Cancer Fundraising has raised more than $1.25 million to date. Doors for Gone Country open at 2 p.m. July 25. Music begins at 2:30 p.m., with headliner Blackjack Billy set to take the stage at 9:30 p.m. Tickets are available for those 19 and up through the Twins Cancer Fundraising website: www.twinscancerfundraising.com.

Salmon a harbinger of change This overheated summer should teach us to be more sensitive to our natural surroundings Everyone — well those in the media and on social media anyway — is watching for an apocalypse to prove that climate change is truly happening. The truth is more subtle. While this year’s strange weather patterns and unusual wildfire season are upsetting, scientists say we should keep an eye on longterm trends, not the short-term aberrations. One area where this is particularly evident is in the study of salmon habits. Scientists have found that trends of ocean warming and cooling can mask the effects of climate change, with a cooler phase starting now. But at the same time, scientists are also noticing some salmon species are moving further north, even into Alaska, and some Fraser River salmon are returning early, which can affect spawning survival. Another report issued last week found that changes in ocean physics and chemistry brought on by climate change will eventually kill off some salmon, reducing the food fishery and making salmon even more expensive than it is now. While there are those who say we can’t

afford to eat salmon anyway, the warning should be heeded because of the importance of the iconic fish to the ecosystem. Salmon, including chum and coho that we see return to the region each year, are a keystone species, critical to the survival of other forms of life. They fertilize our forests, feed
wildlife and, like the proverbial canary in a coal mine, can inform us about our own future by changes in their habits. Locally, we have seen Port Coquitlam’s Hyde Creek drying up and coho smolts dying in overheated water or on the shoreline. But the bigger picture is the long-term trend. If the oceans are becoming too warm for salmon and the fish are returning early, TriCity creeks such as Hoy/Scott, Noons, Mossom and Hyde will need to be maintained as cool, protected safe havens, and the Coquitlam River needs to have enough water flow to be safe for fish. How can we help? We can conserve water and electricity so more water can be released in the river. We can stop pouring noxious substances down storm drains and discourage development from being placed too close to creeks so trees and foliage, which moderate temperatures and water flows, and feed rivers and creeks with their nutrients, are preserved. It may be smokey and hot but that doesn’t mean the apocalypse is here. If we learn nothing else from this overheated summer, we should at least learn to be more sensitive and protective of our natural surroundings. – Tri City News

mendations you may have. There will no formal presentation, just a mix and mingle format during the event. Given the nature of our work, the majority of our contact with the public is during emergencies or very emotional situations, which are not ideal for relationshipbuilding. Modeled after similar initiatives across North America, “Coffee with a Cop” aims to provide a much more relaxed interaction with community members. Members of District 4 will be in attendance, along with myself and Inspector Bhayani from the Surrey RCMP main detatchment. So, please save the date. I would like to provide you with a quick recap on our Business Walk About program, where our team conducts impromptu visits to local businesses. To date we have conducted 250 of these visits to a large cross-section of businesses within Cloverdale/Port Kells. We have appreciated the opportunity to visit you at your business and place of employment. Your comments and observations are valuable to our District Office. This program will continue to run until
September of this year.
Garage doors Our District Office, along with the general duty patrol members, has noted the following trend that should be addressed: far too many garage doors are being left open. There is no doubt that the warm weather is a contributing factor to this, however the equation is simple: an open garage door equals a higher risk of theft from your garage or entry into your home.
What’s on your mind? I would like to request your assistance in determining some topics for upcoming articles. If there is a topic or issue that you would like to see addressed in this column, I welcome your suggestions. I welcome your input on issues or information you may require at our local level. My email address is daniel.gibbons@rcmpgrc.gc.ca. I look forward to hearing from you in the near future.

By Jeff Nagel An alarming number of contractors are failing to safely remove asbestos before they demolish or renovate an older home, prompting WorkSafeBC to step up enforcement to prevent a new epidemic of disease in the future. The agency conducted 210 inspections last year and found 43 per cent of hazardous material surveys were inadequate, often failing to detect asbestos that further tests proved was present. “In many of these cases they’ll produce a survey by a testing firm that shows no asbestos. We will then take samples ourselves and we’ll find asbestos in that property,” said Al Johnson, WorkSafeBC vice-president of prevention services. Disreputable hazmat firms may not check enough of a building, leaving out obvious sources of risk that can include drywall, floor tiles, insulation, cement pipes, linoleum and spray-on fireproofing. Workers exposed to airborne asbestos fibres released at construction sites can contract cancers and other asbestos-related diseases decades later. Asbestos has emerged as B.C.’s top workplace killer, with 581 related deaths in the past decade, 77 of them last year. Those deaths were mostly due to industrial exposure of trades people at high levels 20 to 40 years ago, but Johnson fears more gradual exposure in construction and demolition will be the new killer of the future. Contributing to the problem is the soaring price of land in Metro Vancouver that has fueled a boom in demolitions as hundreds of older houses are cleared away each year to make way for the dream homes of buyers. “The housing market is playing into this in a significant way because many old homes built prior to the mid-80s are just being purchased for the land and torn down,” Johnson said. Some contractors or home owners have no clue about the risks or the health and safety laws that apply, he said, while others are trying to dodge the cost of dealing with the danger responsibly. “You can come in and demolish with backhoe or an excavator and have a big pile of rubble and try to haul it off somewere. That’s a lot different than having a team of people go in properly protected.” Five cities – Vancouver, Coquitlam, Port Coquitlam, Saanich and Nanaimo – require demolition permit applicants to first provide hazardous material survey results. Renovations are more difficult for enforcement officers to spot and police. Johnson said WorkSafeBC is appealing to home owners to get a responsible contractor. “The last thing you want is somebody tearing out your kitchen and then somebody later on saying ‘that was all asbestos.’ Now you and your family and your kids and everybody else may have been exposed and breathed in a hazardous material.” The enforcement blitz begins this month and continues until the end of the year. More information can be found at WorkSafeBC’s asbestos information site hiddenkiller.ca. – Black Press

By Gary Ahuja Don Leo Heaton still dreams of wrestling, literally. “Once in a while I have dreams that the match is ready to go on and they are calling me to the ring and I don’t have my shoes tied up or some silly damn thing,” Heaton said with a laugh. Heaton is seated on a chair in his Langley home. A wall in the
nearby hallway shows him in his younger days, a strapping young man in wrestling trunks and boots. His waist is adorned with a championship belt, one of the many titles he won during his illustrious career. That was a long time ago. The pictures date back four, five and even six decades. Heaton, who is 84 years old, re-

tired from the professional wrestling ranks 35 years ago, in 1980. And on Friday (July 24), he is set to be honoured by All Star Wrestling at the Cloverdale Fairgrounds. He is one of four all-time greats being recognized by the league. Also being honoured are Ed ‘Moondog’ Moretti, Bob Steele and the late Roy McClarty. ••• Heaton followed his father into professional wrestling. He grew up in Utah and remembers being as young as four or five years old and accompanying his father — who wrestled under the moniker Brother Jonathan — to professional bouts across North America. After high school, Heaton enlisted in the U.S. Navy, while also wresting semi-professionally. In 1950 — at age 19 — he became a full-time wrestler. “The whole thing was exciting for me; it was something I had thought about ever since I was a young boy,” he said. Heaton wrestled mainly under the name Don Leo Jonathan, but also sometimes as the Mormon Giant. He even participated in a tag-team match alongside his father. He loved performing for an audience, whether he was playing the ‘good’ guy or the ‘heel’. And that depended on where he was wrestling. “In Vancouver, I could do no harm (but) in Quebec City, I didn’t speak enough French,” he said with a chuckle. Back in his heyday, Heaton stood six-footsix and weighed 320 pounds. He wrestled for 30 years, participating in more than 3,000 matches and securing numerous championships along the way, in several different wrestling associations. He still remembers a match in Montreal in 1952 where he wrestled for his first world championship title. “I was so excited, I didn’t even know it was going on,” Heaton recalled. ‘It never sank in until I was sitting on my step the next morning and one of the guys walks by and says, ‘Hi, champ.’” Heaton also wrestled a bear a few times back in the 1960s, including one showdown in Chilliwack where he actually managed to defeat the bear by pinfall.

Don Leo Heaton, left, now 84, is being recognized by All Star Wrestling as one of the all time greats. Weighing 320 pounds in his heyday, he wrestled for 30 years, taking on a bear in one memorable match in the 1960s. He body slammed Andre the Giant in the 1970s – another highlight in a storied career.

‘One of the biggest’ From previous page
Heaton said the power of his furry opponent was “phenomenal.” Another highlight was fighting Andre the Giant back in the 1970s. Heaton was able to body slam his opponent — the 550-pounder would go on to be known as the Eighth Wonder of the World in later years, when he rose to fame in the World Wresting Federation (now WWE). Until that point, no one had been able to execute a body slam on Andre the Giant. “I had no doubts I could do it,” Heaton said. “I had slammed Haystacks Calhoun before that, and he was 602 pounds.” Slamming the Giant was quite the feat, but it also injured Heaton’s back, to the point that he had to retire in 1980. “That’s how I got hurt, saddling him up for a slam,” Heaton said. To this day, Heaton’s back is still bothersome. “I have always said, if you want to dance, you have to pay the fiddler. For 30 years of glory, I got 30 years of misery,” he said with a laugh. There are no regrets, however. His wrestling career took him across the world — all over North America, Mexico, Europe, South Africa, Australia and Japan. In 2006, Heaton was inducted into the Professional Wrestling Hall of Fame and Museum. Some of Heaton’s big wrestling career moments are highlighted in the 2009 book, Wrestling in the Canadian West, by Vance Nevada. Nevada will also be hosting Friday’s induction ceremony. “Don Leo Jonathan was considered by many to be the original giant
of professional wrestling,” Nevada said. “In his era … he was one of the biggest acts there was.” Nevada, a wrestler and promoter himself, said he has been a student of Heaton’s career. Heaton also appeared in a handful of movies, including Paradise Alley with Sylvester Stallone in 1978. After retirement from wrestling, Heaton ran his own diving company. He has lived in Langley with his wife, Rose, since the late 1990s. The couple — who will celebrate their 53rd wedding anniversary in December — have three children: daughter Rodonna and sons Don Michael and Jeff, as well as three grandchildren.
