By Jennifer LangAnyone acquainted with Susie (Francis) Hall

already knows she’s a star. Now she has a trophy to prove it.

Well known in Cloverdale for heading up Th e Versatiles, a performing arts troupe of golden ag-ers, Hall has won the Langley, B.C., division of Senior Star, a talent contest open to singers and musicians aged 65 and up.

Her (somewhat bawdy) rendition of the sultry blues standard, “Th e Birth of the Blues,” accompa-nied by pianist Deenie Lusse, won over the judges at the June 14 event, held at Langley Gardens Re-tirement Community.

Th e multifaceted performer beat out nine other contestants, including Cloverdale’s Irene Reed, a previous regional Senior Idol who sang her way to the nationals in 2010. Working the crowd, Hall

wowed judges Langley Township Coun. Grant Ward, school music instructor Jamie Th omas and performer Gail Hawksworth to take top prize.

Senior Star is Canada’s largest talent competi-tion dedicated to seniors. Th is year there are 60 regional competitions being held across Canada. Contestants are given fi ve minutes to sing a song, play an instrument, or do both. Videotaped per-formances of the winners are then submitted to a celebrity panel of judges.

Th e list is narrowed to nine competitors selected to the Senior Star National Finals this November in Niagara Falls. Hall hopes to be one of them.

Meanwhile, Susie and Th e Versatiles are enjoy-ing a steady set of engagements at area seniors’ residences and other venues.

Th is summer, they’ll perform their big-gest show yet: an anniversary show at Vancou-

ver’s historic Kitsilano Showboat at Kits Beach.Th e Aug. 11 performance is an historic oc-casion for Th e Versatiles, and especially Hall.In 1937, her grandfather, Frank Dowie, and “Th eVersatiles” performed a tribute to King GeorgeIV during Canada’s Coronation season in EnglishBay. Seventy-fi ve years later, Hall will be standingwhere her grandfather stood and celebrate QueenElizabeth’s diamond Jubilee year.

Hall, who founded the rebooted Versatiles in2005, has spent her life in the theatre, and lovesthe vaudeville tradition, which encompasses sing-ing, dancing, and comedy.

She got her start at the age of seven, gracingstages with her parents, Fran Dowie and CandyKane.

Th e Senior Star competition is presented byChartwell Seniors Housing REIT.

Residents demand safer crossing

JENNIFER LANG PHOTOAmer Afridi, City of Surrey engineer, explains to residents why a crosswalk won’t help slow traffi c at this intersection.

By Jennifer LangResidents asking for a crosswalk

in their Cloverdale neighbourhood took their demands to the street last Wednesday, picketing on the busy corner of 168 Street and 57A Avenue during rush hour.

Nearly two-dozen pro-testers – who ranged from grandmas and moms to elementary school stu-dents and a toddler or two – waived signs reading Keep our Children Safe, Safety First, and Give Us A Cross Walk.

Many motorists racing past in the aft ernoon rush honked and waved in support, but didn’t slow down much, inadvertently underscoring the residents’ concerns.

“Every day you try to cross here, it’s a nightmare,” said Chrissy Burbank, a parent of two boys. Her young-est attends nearby Surrey Centre Elementary, while her teen goes to Lord Tweedsmuir, making for several crossings a day by foot or car. “We’re

never sure if we’re going to get hit by a car.”

A resident of 14 years who’s wit-nessed the once-sleepy, quasi-rural neighbourhood grow into a bustling residential enclave, Burbank said the city of Surrey initially promised to

install a light at the inter-section, but so far it hasn’t happened.

Residents trying to turn onto 168 St. from 57A Ave. wait for a break in the stream of traffi c, or wind up driving through the subdivision to 60 Av-enue, adding to conges-tion around the elemen-

tary school at drop off and pick-up times.

“We need something for parents and kids to cross safely here,” she said.

Protest organizer Trudy Hemrick said she’s grown frustrated by the city’s refusal to install a cross walk across 168 Street at 57A Avenue, an

“I watched a woman die on my lawn.”

Schools namedTh e name of the new school

planned for East Clayton will recog-nize the Katzie First Nation.

Katzie Elementary, one of three Surrey schools expected to open within the next two years, will be built on Katzie traditional lands.

“I thank the many people who took the time to send in their thoughtful suggestions for school names,” said

board vice-chairperson Shawn Wil-son, who chairs the board’s publicrelations committee, which is re-sponsible for school naming.

Th e Surrey Board of Educationalso recently approved the names forGoldstone Park Elementary in SouthNewton and Sunnyside Elementaryat 2828 159 Street, a replacement forthe original Sunnyside Elementaryschool.

Pedestrian counts too low for a crosswalkintersection that connects pedes-trians and motorists with nearby Surrey Centre Elementary.

A count performed by the City of Surrey found just fi ve people an hour cross the street here – insuffi cient numbers for a cross-walk.

Hemrick was told motorists are prone to ignore a crosswalk when they aren’t accustomed to seeing pedestrians using them, making the situation worse, ac-cording to the city offi cials she’s spoken with.

But that explanation doesn’t wash with Hemrick, who says she’ll continue to press for so-lutions, whether it’s installing warning lights in addition to a crosswalk or even a light.

She pointed to local ameni-ties like a park, and a farm-fresh produce stand at 168 Street and Highway 10 – places she and her neighbours would like to be able to walk to without fear of being mowed down.

Th e commotion of the demon-stration attracted the attention – and immediate support – of Rav-ina Chand, a nurse who lives in the home on the northeast corner of 168 Street and 57A Avenue.

“I live right there and I watched a woman die on my front lawn,” she said. “She got T-boned. I’ve seen people getting hit on a bike. At 2:30 in the morning, people drive down here at highway speeds.”

She won’t allow her teen-age sons to cross the street, and has witnessed children running across 168 Street so they don’t get hit.

“Th ey shouldn’t have to do that,” she said, stressing she’d like the city to do everything in its power to improve pedestrian and motorist safety on her corner.

“Th ere’s nothing to control this intersection. I have seen night-mare aft er nightmare living here.”

City Engineer Amer Afridi,

who met with protesters, prom-ised to take further steps, such as performing another count at lon-ger intervals than the previous one, and looking into adding a left hand turn lane and other line adjustments to slow traffi c.

“Th e crosswalk is defi nitely not an answer for this intersection,” he said.

ICBC records show there have been 17 crashes involving vehicles at the intersection between 2007 and 2011; one involved a cyclist, another a pedestrian.

According to ICBC, the most

dangerous intersection to cross on foot in Cloverdale is 64 Av-enue and 176 Street, with six pedestrians struck between 2007 and 2011. Th e second worst is 56 Avenue (Highway 10) and 177B Street, with fi ve pedestrians hit over the same fi ve-year span.

Four pedestrians have been struck between 2007 and 2011 at the intersection of 168 Street and 60 Avenue, ICBC says.

“It would be nice if the city could make this safer,” resident Leah Chandler said. “A lot of people would appreciate it.”

Introducing a new, occasional feature where we highlight the best – and worst – of the week’s news makers

Welcome to the fi rst installment of a new feature in the Cloverdale Reporter.

It’s our place to award pats on the back and shower Cloverdalians with kudos. It’ll also be a place to send out slings and arrows to those deserving of a more dubious distinction.

We’re calling it Tip of the Hat, Dig of the Spurs.

In it, we’ll highlight the news, absurdi-ties and plain old gossip that may not make it into print in a traditional story, but are observations we can’t resist sharing with our readers anyway.

First up, we off er a tip of the hat to you – the people of Clo-verdale, for making this such a friendly, welcoming and fun place to work.

Case in point? We get a lot of emails each week, but some stand out for their friendliness. Here’s one about the Rodeo that came in last month.

Hi Jennifer, My daughter & I had a great day at the Clo-

verdale Rodeo.We were there on Saturday, the weather was

nice, also won a BBQ to boot! So you have a “Great Day”.

Th anksCharlet ArcuriWe also get friendly feedback from our Face-

book Friends (359 and counting), who turned

out in full force to browse – and share – photos of the Cloverdale Rodeo, parade, chili cook-off and bed races photos we posted there. Our Facebook stats show we reached 11,234 peo-ple on Facebook May 15 to 21. We’re not sure exactly what that means, but it sounds pretty darn good! So, we’d like to tip our Stetson and say thanks for sharing, everyone!

We’re forced to give a good-natured, but pointed inaugural Dig of the Spur to

the public relations people at Great Canadian Gaming Corporation.

Great Canadian owns and operates Fraser Downs Race-track and Casino, as well as River Rock Casino and Hast-ings Racecourse.

On May 25 we received a press release advising that

Fraser Downs was set to host a special public meet and greet with

Sophie and Nick Tweed-Simmons, the reality TV stars of A&E’s Family Jewels.

Great idea, right? Bring in some attractive young celebrities, with a Canadian connec-tion (mom Shannon Tweed) and who are lik-able to boot – and help shine the spotlight on Cloverdale’s historic raceway and the proud tradition of harness racing.

“Sophie and Nick will take the time to en-joy the day at the races and host a public meet and greet,” the release said.

Th ere was just one hitch: the harness

racing season ended on May 12. Sophie andNick were arriving June 3. Oops!

A short while later, the same press releasewas sent out by a Fraser Downs marketingmanager – somebody who actually works atthe Cloverdale racetrack and casino.

Th e problematic line was intact.A third press release – this time from the

original media manager – arrived just before3 p.m.

“Minor little tweak,” it read. “Nick andSophie will enjoy the day at the track, not atthe races, as we wrapped up racing a coupleof weeks ago.”

It’s hard not to feel let down (read: furious)on behalf of the racing community at FraserDowns.

When the people paid to promote yourindustry don’t even know that the season hasended, it must be more than a little concern-ing.

But what must really sting is how well in com-parison Great Canadian Gaming Corp. has beenpublicizing the connections of its thorough-bred raceway, Hastings Racecourse, to MarioGutierrez, the splendid jockey who rodethis year’s Triple Crown contender, I’ll HaveAnother, to victories at the Kentucky Derby andPreakness Stakes.

Great Canadian Gaming, this spur’s foryou.

offi ce (Cloverdale/Port Kells) received 24 reports of business break-ins last month, according to the lat-est Business Link newsletter from the community offi ce.

Th ere were also 70 reports of theft from vehicles in the area in the month of May, prompting

newly-installed Staff /Sgt. Martin Blais to issue a warning asking the public to keep an eye out for suspicious activity – and to take steps to reduce the likelihood their vehicles will become a tar-get.

Suggestions include remov-ing anything of value from view inside your vehicle, from laptops to unattended wallets and spare change.

By Jeff NagelFarmers won’t be getting any

break from Metro Vancouver on the cost of water to irrigate their crops.

Th e regional district board voted Friday to shoot down the idea of a reduced price for agri-cultural water consumption, at least for now.

Metro directors say it’s not jus-tifi able to provide Metro water – most of which is now fi ltered and treated at great cost – at a discount rate to farmers.

“I think it’s a bit of a slippery slope to isolate the wa-ter issue,” Surrey Coun. Linda Hepner said at a debate on the issue at Metro’s regional plan-ning and agriculture committee.

Th e region receives regular requests for preferential rates for agriculture, and sup-porting food security is one of the region’s sustainability goals.

Th e request for special treat-ment came from Metro’s Agricul-ture Advisory Committee, which noted the importance of water is critical.

How water rates are charged in the region is technically up to in-dividual cities, but a blanket deci-sion by the region to confer lower rates for farm purposes would fl ow through to farmers.

Delta is the only city in the

region that already opts to sub-sidize farmers’ irrigation, off er-ing a 38 per cent discount within its agricultural zone on the fi rst 8,000 cubic metres of water used.

Matching Delta’s discounts would cost Metro an estimated $550,000 in annual subsidies, ac-cording to a staff report.

Th e report said potable water costs represent less than 0.5 per cent of the overall cost of farm-ing in the region, so even a large subsidy would have only a minor impact on the viability of local agriculture.

It did note the subsidy could be signifi cant for food processors on farmland who use lots of water to wash produce, however.

Th e report warned other wa-ter-intensive businesses might demand similar treatment.

Water pricing is legally re-quired to be fair and equitable, so any attempt to subsidize agricul-ture through regional water rates would require legislative change through the province.

Th e cost of Metro’s treated drinking water has risen sharply in recent years because of the ad-

dition of the $800-million Sey-mour-Capilano Filtration Plant.

Alternative sources of waterfor irrigation are either oversub-scribed or problematic.

Th e drawdown of well waterfor farming is unsustainable, thereport noted, while Fraser Riverwater closest to the ocean is oft entoo salty and stream and ditchwater is oft en too contaminated.

Metro plans to work furtherwith the province’s agricultureministry to search for othermethods of delivering usable wa-ter for farming.

One option would be todivert some water from theFraser into the Serpentineand Nicomekl River sys-tems to serve farms in theSurrey area, although thecosts of such a system areunclear, as well as potentialenvironmental risks from

inter-basin transfers.Richmond Coun. Harold

Steves warned Metro may regretfailing to tackle the issue seri-ously enough.

“Th is is a ticking time bomb,”he said, calling the increasing useof pumped water from ditchesand wells a potentially serioushealth risk.

“It scares the heck out of me,”he said. “It’s going to take onee.coli scare and it will be on thetable as ‘Why didn’t you do some-thing?’”

Partying at the Palace and other talesLONDON, ENGLAND– “Nice picnic bas-

kets,” I comment as the couple move over to make room for me.

We’re waiting for our trains departing from the bustling and impressively improved King’s Cross railway station.

“We won the lottery for the Jubilee Picnic in the Palace,” Tina Smith confi des conspira-

torially with a wide grin. Clearly still basking in the fun of this once-in-a-lifetime experi-ence, she – like all folks encountered during the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee celebrations – was delighted to share the tale.

“Tell all!” I com-mand.

“Well, I almost missed it,” she laughs. Tina and Dave hail from Lincolnshire. Th ey had planned to celebrate her birthday in London on Jubilee weekend.

Th rowing their names into the Picnic in the Palace Lottery was a long shot… until her mobile rang during dinner on the Th urs-day before the big weekend.

“I nearly didn’t bother to answer! I’m glad I did! We wouldn’t believe it. We won the tickets!” Th ey laugh at the memory. “Look. I even had my nails done red, white, and blue!”

“We were all eyes as we went through Buckingham Palace to the gardens. It was wonderful!”

Th e gardens, she reports, are even more beautiful than pictures depicted.

Opening the picnic basket wrapped in the red and embossed the royal insignia; she pulls out fl utes, cutlery and so on. Cham-pagne, chilled soup, Scottish salmon, chick-en in sauce, strawberry trifl e , a selection of cakes, a full selection of English cheeses and, later in the aft ernoon, ice cream.

“Delicious!” was the verdict. Princess Anne, Sophie, the Countess of

Wessex (Prince Edward’s wife) and Prince Andrew’s daughters, Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie, were among the many royals who

stopped to chat. “It was all so relaxed and laid back,” recall

the couple. “Everyone was so nice and wel-coming, they really were.”

While I was stuck at the end of the packed Mall next to St. James’ Park for the evening

Jubilee concert and fi reworks, Dave and Tinawere comfortably seated front and centreon the Buckingham Palace gate stands sur-rounding Winged Victory. Th e tickets wherepart of the free lottery package.

By Jennifer LangFive years aft er fi rst

opening its doors, the fi -nal phase of the Czorny Alzheimer Centre in Cloverdale is complete – and double its original size.

On June 12, sup-porters, residents and dignitaries gathered to celebrate.

Th e residential care facility, located at 16850 66 Avenue, now pro-vides expert care and homes to 72 residents in six cottage-like residences.

It’s named for Mi-chael and Nancy Czorny. Their daugh-ter, Marilyn Stewart, watched her fatherbattle with the dev-astating effects of the disease for nine years.

When he passed away in 1985 at the age of 73, she made a commit-ment to do whatever she could to help peo-ple with Alzheimer’s disease.

Marilyn and Chick Stewart donated the land and capital costs to develop the Czorny Al-zheimer Centre, which operates as a partnership between Fraser Health, the Alzheimer Society

of British Columbia, and the Czorny Al-zheimer Centre Society. Th e Stewart’s vision is a partnership and care model that can be repli-cated elsewhere in B.C.

“Alzheimer’s disease is a terrible disease that can strike at the heart of a family,” said Marilyn Stewart.

“Our prayer is that

people with Alzheimer’s and their families will receive the love, support and hope they need.”

Th e centre’s mission is to provide a family-focused environment that adheres to the high-est standards of demen-tia care using a patient-centred approach.

Each cottage has 12 bedrooms, plus a kitch-en and areas for leisure and relaxation.

Th ere are gardens, animals – two rabbits, a cat and a cockatiel – along with calming mu-sic playing in the back-ground, creating a sense of calm for residents.

Th ere’s also a coff ee shop, general store, li-brary and worship space, a garage where residents

can tinker or rekindlehobbies, along with fam-ily rooms for social gath-erings.

“Research shows thatthe quality of life ofpeople living with Al-zheimer’s disease, andalso their caregivers, issignifi cantly improvedby activities that empha-size their strengths andabilities,” said HeatherCook, executive directorof Residential and As-sisted Living for FraserHealth.

Caregivers and fami-lies of residents andthose with loved onesliving in the communityare encouraged to dropby the Alzheimer Societyof B.C.’s Resource Cen-tre, located across fromthe front reception.

I filed my personal tax return in April, but I forgot to include some deductions, what should I do?If you need to change a tax return that you have already sent in or electronically filed with the Canada Revenue Agency (“CRA”), do not resend or refile the corrected return. Once you have received your notice of assessment from the CRA for the year, you can request a change to the return in one of a couple of different ways.First, you can complete a T1-ADJ “T1 Adjustment Request” form and send it and the supporting documentation for the entire claim to the Surrey Tax Centre. Second, if you have already registered with the CRA to have electronic access to your account, you can simply make the changes to your return online using the CRA’s “My Account” feature.Note that it typically takes two to three months for the CRA to process the adjustment.For assistance with filing your personal or business taxes or if you have any other tax related questions, please contact me at your convenience.

Which Home Improvements Pay Off?

Basic maintenance, such as the roof and exterior painting are frequently more important than an awesome kitchen. For example a new kitchen or bath will lose some of their glamour if there’s water in the basement when a potential buyer comes to look at your house. We’ve been into homes where people are spending thirty or forty thousand dol-lars to remodel the kitchen, but then you walk into the basement and there’s a musty smell because water is leaking through the foundation. It’s more important to resolve those items first, and get the luxuries later. That’s not to say that granite coun-ters and steam showers don’t pay off; kitchen and bathroom remodels continue to be two of the best investments you can make in your house. They’re always right up there at the top of the list.

“It makes you feel so proud to be British,” Tina tells me as we say goodbye. “We feel honoured. Not many countries have this, or even could if they tried. It was really nice. And, we’ve had the pleasure of meeting people from all over the world.”

Graeme and Patricia Houghton, from Kentucky, seated nearby, also came for the Jubilee. Graeme, a retired mechani-cal aerospace engineer, and Patricia, who retired from K-Mart management, are avid Princess Cruise Line cruisers.

Friends they met on a cruise invited them stay in London for the Jubilee.

Because they cruise a lot – they were going home on the Queen Mary – they tell me about their large circle of cruising friends who visit each other’s homes around the world.

Th ey plan to live year-round onboard the Star Princess. “Princess has a department dedicated to residents only,”

Graeme tells me and, he says, Princess group insurance works for the couple, too. For $57,535 per year the couple, who have no children, feel it’s a good deal.

And how did they enjoy London and the celebrations? “Absolutely wonderful! We had a hop on hop off pass. Ev-

erything was so easy. We’re so glad we came.” For me, this London trip was a unique walk down mem-

ory lane. Crowds were friendly and fun – right down to the massive security contingent. Armed with an Oyster pass for buses and tubes I just added funds to it when required. Buy it on arrival at Heathrow – and London is your oyster.
