Insider Publisher's Note Welcome to the early spring issue of Steveston Insider! There are many events happening in Steveston to celebrate Canada's 150th anniversary including free admission to all Parks Canada sites. In addition, there are plans for a longer and larger Steveston Salmon Festival, Ships to Shore and Maritime Festival. February commences with the Family Day long weekend followed by Valentine’s Day. Steveston Village’s boutiques are filled with great gift ideas for your sweetheart including chocolates, flowers, jewellery and of course, Valentine’s cards. Plan on making a reservation for a romantic dinner for two at one of Steveston’s many fine restaurants. I am excited about the three articles in this issue. On the cover are business partners Kyle Brailean, Trystam Hayden and Lloyd Kinney who joined forces to start Britannia Brewing Company in 2014. Read about how they recently opened a restaurant on Bayview Street where you can enjoy local craft beer and food.
perfect time to welcome Balloon Place to the village! You can’t miss the happy helium balloon bouquets floating in the storefront window, enticing customers to come inside. I was thrilled when I ordered balloon bouquets, had them delivered and then found out the balloons lasted for weeks after the party! I am pleased to feature the wonderful work Richmond Hospital Auxiliary Thrift Shop volunteers contribute to our community. Every penny raised directly benefits Richmond Hospital to purchase much needed equipment. After reading this story I immediately offered to donate ad space in every issue to help this worthy cause. Did you know 28 new businesses opened in Steveston in 2016 and many more are coming! Steveston Insider encourages you to support all of our local businesses so they succeed in our wonderful village. Enjoy the longer and warmer days, and watch closely for the first signs of spring – it won’t be long now!

Cover Story
Britannia Steveston Local Craft Beer and Food: A Hip New Vibe for the Village Story by Sarah Gordon
Photos by Sandra Steier
Anchors aweigh! One of Steveston’s newest restaurants, Britannia Steveston Local Craft Beer and Food, has now been open for six months. Housed in a beautiful nautically influenced space designed to complement Steveston’s waterfront location, this restaurant offers a menu built around local food and craft beer from their own brewery. Back in 2014 Steveston residents and friends Kyle Brailean, Trystam Hayden and Lloyd Kinney joined forces to start a craft beer brewery, which they named Britannia Brewing Company. The enterprising partners joke and say the brewery is on the small size. The pint-sized 1,200 square foot space is packed with brewing equipment and to date has brewed 20,000 litres of craft beer. Kyle, Trystam

and Lloyd are all actively involved and acknowledge the fine work of their full-time head brewer Mike Nicholson. Their long-term vision was to open up a restaurant to serve as a tasting room for their brewery. In an ideal world the two establishments would have been housed under one roof but due to Steveston’s zoning regulations, which have subsequently changed, they set up in Ironwood. In August 2016 the restaurant opened at the corner of Bayview Street and Second Avenue.
“Steveston has the charm and friendly vibe that I grew up with. What better place to showcase our beer.” Kyle Brailean

Kyle Brailean and Lloyd Kinney The south facing restaurant is filled with light. Wood sided walls painted white, classic white subway tiles behind the bar, woven seat barstools, industrial style pendant and hanging lantern lighting and a gorgeous family size table the trio constructed from reclaimed wood are all part of the space’s inviting atmosphere. Kyle, Trystam and Lloyd have pooled their talents and are burning the midnight oil as they juggle family life (they all have wives and young children), the brewery, the restaurant, and in the case of Kyle and Lloyd, two careers. Kyle is a welder with B.C. Ferries. He comes from a family of brewers and says, “For as long as I can remember I wanted to be a brewer like my grandfather.”
Sydney’s Lord Nelson Brewery Hotel, Australia’s oldest brew pub. He met his Richmondborn wife while she was visiting Australia and they moved to Canada in 2014. Lloyd comes from the business side. Lloyd’s construction team from his company MLK Properties worked alongside Lloyd, Kyle and Trystam to gut and rebuild the restaurant’s interior. Lloyd’s wife Adrienne Kinney is a designer and was thrilled to have a rare opportunity to design a restaurant from a shell.
Trystam works fulltime at the restaurant and also assists at the brewery. He has an extensive background in restaurant management; his family owns February - March 2017

“We're excited about growing our business locally the craft way. We’re confident we will build a successful and scalable brand for our brewery and Steveston restaurant.” Lloyd Kinney Currently, Britannia Brewery Company primarily brews for the restaurant. They also sell kegs to O’Hare’s GastroPub and canned beer to select B.C. Liquor Stores (Ironwood, Seafair and a few independents). At this point they are producing at one third of their potential capacity and intend to expand their canned beer production. Their vision is slow and steady wins the race. Their top priorities are to produce the best quality craft beer and to grow the local market first. Craft beer is defined as made by hand in small batches with an emphasis on distinctive full-bodied tastes and aromas achieved by using local ingredients. As examples, in some of their batches Britannia Brewing Company uses tea from Steveston businesses Adorabelle Tea Room and chocolate from Sinfully the Best.
“Britannia Brewing Company aims to brew with British tradition and West Coast ingenuity using the best seasonal ingredients we can get.” Trystam Hayden 8
The restaurant offers six distinct craft beers on tap to choose from: Adrift Hop Blonde Ale (inspired by the surrounding ocean and mountains), Ashore Rye Porter (a twist on the traditional brown style porter), Wave Crusader XPA (falling somewhere between a British pale ale and American IPA), Rye India Pale Ale (with big resiny grapefruit and tropical fruit aromas), Chai Saison (refreshing and effervescent farmhouse ale using a chai tea blend) and Biere De Garde (a strong pale ale brewed with a Belgium farmhouse yeast, toffee malt and aromas of dried fruits). Beer can be purchased in glasses or select a tasting flight of four 6 ounce glasses to compare and contrast tastes. If you are looking to have a full craft beer experience, inquire about the upcoming ticketed beer dinner, a four-course paired meal. Coming soon, the trio hopes their application to sell growlers at the Ironwood brewery will meet final approval. They will also be offering cask nights biweekly and restaurant guests will have the chance to try one-off beers. They could be winners, or not, it is all about experimenting as interesting ingredients such as blueberries, jalapeno or chocolate may be added to a cask. Mirroring the pride they take in their craft beer, Kyle, Trystam and Lloyd strive to feature as many local products as possible. They shine the spotlight on quality and don’t cut corners. The restaurant’s menu rotates six times a year. A sampling of share plate selections

include charcuterie featuring locally cured meat by Steveston’s own D Original Sausage Haus, stuffed Yorkies (roasted beef, horseradish aioli, au jus) and a salmon board (pate, house gravlax, smoked salmon, local sourdough, citrus aioli). Select main dishes include crab and chili spaghettini (shell pasta, farmhouse cheddar, reggiano and parsley), Britannia beer battered fish and chips (Ocean Wise cod), Nepalese chicken curry and their signature grass fed burger (local beef from Pemberton, B.C.’s Two Rivers Specialty Meats), along with other tempting offerings in the share plate, soup and salad and main dish/handheld categories. If you are looking for a spot to have weekend brunch, stop by the restaurant on Saturdays and Sundays between 9:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. to enjoy tasty Two Rivers’ bacon, sausages from D Original Sausage Haus and free-range eggs. Kyle, Trystam and Lloyd are eager to introduce people to the community they love. Through their niche business they are seeing craft beer enthusiasts who have never been to Steveston making the trip because they’ve caught wind of something exciting going on.

The Metro Vancouver housing market had its third highest selling year on record in 2016, behind only 2015 and 2005. It was an eventful year for real estate with low supply causing prices to escalate in the first half of the year and strong home buyer demand bringing unanticipated attention to the market, especially in Richmond. As prices rose, much speculation as to the force behind the increased buying interest sparked public debate across the Metro Vancouver region. Public demand for government action resulted in interventions such as the implementation of a foreign buyer’s tax in the second half of the year. The full effect of these actions can’t be wholly evaluated for some time, however, notable cooling of activity and modest declines in prices were experienced in the last quarter of 2016. You may be understandably tentative to list your home for sale with this new year and new market upon us. It is in exactly these market conditions that having an experienced professional working for you is extremely important. Let me and my team at RE/MAX Westcoast - Steveston Real Estate manage this important process for you, call today.

Balloon Place:
It's Time to Celebrate Story by Sarah Gordon
Photos by Sandra Steier
Tammy Still and I arranged to meet at a Steveston coffee shop in December. Not having met, she told me I would easily recognize her - she would be carrying balloons. She arrived with a large Christmas arrangement designed with a festive foil bear as the centrepiece, and offered this gift to the excited staff to add a festive touch to the restaurant. Both generous and marketing savvy, her balloon arrangement became a calling card to direct people to her new Steveston business, Balloon Place, on First Avenue in the former home of Bell’s Bake Shop. Balloon Place opened last June on the third floor of the same building where it is now located. It was not convenient for passers-by 14
and Tammy was keen to find a more visible location. When the street level storefront became available she was thrilled. How did she reach the decision to establish her business in Steveston? She says, “There is no other store of its kind in Richmond.” Tammy felt there was a demand for colourful, cheerful balloons, which captivate people of all ages with their celebratory ‘it’s party time’ energy. Tammy mentions in the 1980s she wanted to throw elaborate parties for her nephews when but it was not in her budget so she learnt balloon art. While the business concept did not take off until much later the seed had been planted; she loved the artistry of balloon arrangement.
February - March 2017
www.StevestonInsider.com
Balloon Place is open seven days a week to ensure customers can access over 1,000 balloons. Tammy jokes with a warm smile, “I am a workaholic who forgot to have kids.” In fact, she may be the biggest kid of all, and owning a business that makes people happy is her driving force. Tammy worked as a realtor in her native Los Angeles until she eventually chose to leave the United States, largely because of the American medical system. She relocated to Calgary and continued to work in real estate until the market slumped and then she headed to the Lower Mainland to work in strata management. She realized this job was not for her and the time had arrived to follow her passion; she shifted gears and began working with Vancouver based business JC Balloon Studio. Tammy moved to Steveston in 2007 where she lives with her husband and business partner Steve Olson. She loves the community and decided last year to venture out and set up an old-fashioned mum and pop store. She mentions, “I am ecstatic to be here. I have always wanted to be part of a small
February - March 2017
community. I love the mix of cultures; there is something very special about Steveston.” She appreciates the small town feeling where events like the Steveston Merchants Association’s Scarecrow Crawl, Girls’ Night Out and Christmas in Steveston Village bring the streets to life and benefit local businesses. She hopes that her unique business will continue to draw more shoppers to the area.
There is something magical about balloons that put a smile on people’s faces. Tammy says, “If you can imagine it, we can make it.” Orders of any size are possible, from a single special balloon to a bouquet that can fill a room for a special event. Whether you are celebrating the birth of a baby, a birthday, sweet sixteen, graduation, marriage or retirement, balloons add the crowning touch. Thanksgiving, Halloween, Christmas, New Year’s Eve, Valentine’s Day, St. Patrick’s Day, Mother's and Father's Day and Canada Day are made more special with the addition of colourful balloons. Tammy points out, “Variety is key. If you have a dream balloon, Balloon Place is likely
www.StevestonInsider.com
15
to have it.” Some clients know exactly what they want (Pinterest has sparked many design requests) but if you are stumped for an idea Tammy is happy to use her artistry to create an arrangement. She mentions a wishing well she constructed from balloons for a wedding. The guests tossed wishes in for the bride and groom and it was a huge hit. If by chance Balloon Place doesn’t carry the balloon you have in mind they will hunt it down with enough notice. Some customers have been known to bring in their own balloons for filling. In addition, Balloon Place rents helium tanks if you prefer to cut down on costs to fill balloons for your event. Tammy’s goal is to keep prices affordable.
“The best part of my business is the happiness it brings.” Tammy Still Corporate and charity events are a large part of their business. It is not uncommon to receive an order for as many as 5,000 balloons to create an arch, column or canopy to fill a convention centre. Balloon walls and sculptures are other popular options. The film industry also utilizes their service. Balloon
16
Place works with JC Balloon Studio to fill large orders. Tammy says they have a wonderful relationship with owner Carlos Gonzalez and will always continue to help each other. If a special occasion is calling out for the finishing touch, pop in to meet Tammy and Steve at Balloon Place. You can’t miss the happy helium balloon bouquets floating in the storefront window, enticing customers to come inside.

Richmond Hospital Auxiliary Thrift Shop: A Labour of Love Story by Sarah Gordon
Photos by Sandra Steier
Most Stevestonites are familiar with the stucco building on the corner of Chatham Street and Second Avenue with its red front and side doors. It was originally home to Steveston Methodist Church, which was constructed in 1894 with a subsequent addition to the back in 1925. In 1975 it relocated around the corner to Broadway Street and became Steveston United Church. Over the years the structure served many purposes including retail space for a bicycle store. In 2007 the building became the Richmond Hospital Auxiliary (RHA) Thrift Shop’s new home when its former location on Moncton Street and First Avenue met the wrecking ball. Behind the scenes, the RHA Thrift Shop is a beehive of activity. The “red coat ladies,” as they are fondly known (along with a handful of “red coat guys” who are highly valued for their muscle power), busily toil to get donations sorted, priced and out onto the floor. The turn over is huge; the busy cash desk commonly processes 500 transactions a day. 26
In total RHA Thrift Shop has a roster of approximately 100 volunteers. Every penny raised directly benefits Richmond Hospital to purchase much needed equipment. Richmond Hospital presents the RHA Thrift Stores’ board of directors with a wish list to purchase major pieces of equipment for the Hospital and fund music and therapy programs at Minoru Residence and Lions Manor. Funds raised have also purchased and help maintain two small buses for each residence and support a mobile dental clinic for Minoru Residence. The Richmond Hospital/Healthcare Auxiliary was established in 1961. In addition to the Steveston thrift shop volunteers, another 340 Auxiliary volunteers donate countless hours of their time to assist at the hospital’s gift shop, lottery booth, information desk, marketplace located in the hospital’s main entrance, act as hospital navigators and help at Minoru Residence and Lions Manor.
February - March 2017
www.StevestonInsider.com
Since the Richmond Hospital/Healthcare Auxiliary’s inception in 1961 it has contributed eight million dollars to benefit the hospital. The thrift store is by far the most lucrative of the Auxiliary’s involvements. It goes without saying Richmond Hospital’s staff is deeply appreciative of the Auxiliary’s dedicated and warm-hearted volunteers. RHA Thrift Shop coordinator Ursula van Duin and day supervisor Barbara Dirnfield both put in unpaid full time hours. If they don’t happen to know the answer to a question one of the other red coat volunteers is happy to fill in the blank. The day I visited it was a bit like working on a jigsaw puzzle as a cluster of women happily stopped their work for a moment to contribute their historical knowledge. A number of helpers have been with the RHA Thrift Shop for many years. Volunteers range in age from 16 to 90 years old and are predominantly women.
The social aspect is a very important reason why people choose to volunteer. A fringe benefit is forming lifelong friendships.
February - March 2017
Ursula points out, “A certain type of person volunteers.” She could easily be speaking about herself. This dynamo has a long history of contributing her time. She lived in the small community of Elliot Lake in Northern Ontario until she moved to Steveston to be close to her Richmond based daughter. In Ontario she was actively involved with the local hospital auxiliary and knew she wanted to carry on with community work in Steveston. In five short years she has become the shop’s coordinator and vice president of the board. Barbara is the youngest of a family of four siblings. She can proudly say three generations of her family have been involved with the Richmond Hospital Auxiliary. Her mother, Joan McInnes, was one of original Auxiliary volunteers. Barbara recalls in the 1960s Auxiliary volunteers frequently visited their family home. She has been assisting at the thrift shop for two years alongside her sisters Laurie and Cathie. In addition, Cathie’s daughter Megan and her grandson Ethan help out, making this a true family affair with four generations having contributed their time.

Barbara shares, “Being around this group of volunteers is an eye opener. They’ve been through so much.” Maria De Olazaval has been donating her services as public relations and social media coordinator to raise the shop’s profile. An updated website is in the works and a social media presence on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter is raising awareness of what’s going on behind the red doors.
reunited it with the owner. The dedicated Red Coat team always goes the extra mile. They take some of the designer clothing home to launder and they polish the finer jewellery donations that they know will sell for a fair price if properly showcased. Curio sales take place every second month and attract many collectors. Mark your calendar and follow RHA Thrift Shop’s social media - the next sale takes place on Saturday February 25 from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
All sorts of wonderful items can be found at RHA Thrift Shop. Children’s clothing is kept to a modest $1 per item. Here you will find gently used clothing (some designer labels) for women, men and children, shoes and household goods. You will also find beautiful used modern and antique furniture, lamps, home décor, jewellery, watches, books, toys, magazines, dishes, hardware, small electronics, sporting goods, craft supplies and many other treasures.
If you are looking for a fulfilling opportunity to lend a hand and you look good in red (wink) the Richmond Hospital Auxiliary Thrift Shop is always looking for more volunteers. There is no greater reward than forming new friendships and knowing that your donation of time assists such a great cause.

The Steveston Interurban Tram The Steveston Interurban Tram Building is celebrating Canada 150 and is now open daily 10:00 am to 4:00 pm! Stop by to see Interurban Tram Car 1220 as it is returned to its original appearance when it rolled the Richmond rails from 1913 to 1958. Due to restoration, access to the tramcar itself may be limited. Our knowledgeable staff are always onsite and happy to share the remarkable history of tram travel in Richmond. 45
