A local couple says someone deliberately attempted to set their home on fire Thursday morning.
“I’m angry someone tried to do this to my family,” said Bill Rourke, who was alerted to the danger by a neighbour loudly banging on the front door after 1:30 a.m. Thursday.
“It’s a pretty scary feeling knowing some-one tried to burn your house with your family in it.”
The Rourkes live in the house on Bowie
Drive with their two teenaged daughters and two other adults. Their home is one of three damaged by fire that morning, and was the most affected.
They’re thankful their neighbour discov-ered the fire before it got worse. The man was returning home from work around that time and saw someone standing on the street, Rourke said.
“He had a shower and when he came out, he smelled smoke.”
The neighbour’s front porch was on fire, and he also saw that the van parked in the
Rourkes’ driveway was in flames.The vehicle was parked close enough to
the house for the flames to spread to the attached garage, just below Bill and his wife Tanja’s bedroom window.
Tanja got everyone out of the house, while Bill moved the family’s Jeep, which was also parked in the driveway, to a safer location.
“Thank God nobody was hurt, and it wasn’t more serious,” said Tanja.
“It was fortunate the guy came home from work when he did,” Bill added. “He basically saved our lives.”
Tanja called 911 around 2 a.m., but fire trucks were already on their way. Their neighbour managed to put out the fire on his front porch with a garden hose.

ate the theatre each year. In the 2011-2012 fiscal year, the school district had a net loss of $66,500 despite receiving the $35,000 grant from Mission and $51,000 in rental reve-nue. MPS spent about $134,000 for salaries and benefits that year and $18,200 on sup-plies and services.
In the past two years, without the grant from the district, MPS saw
a net loss of $103,400 (2012-2013) and $106,900 (2013-2014).
According to a pre-sentation by theatre manager Bronwen Sutherland, about one million people have been through the the-atre doors in the past 17 years. The school district uses the the-atre for graduation ceremonies, student performances and as a teaching tool for the-atre technicians.
The Clarke theatre is booked mostly for community events, such as award ceremo-nies, conferences, fes-tivals, performances, public meetings and craft fairs.
Other groups, like the Arts Club Theatre and Rock.It Boy Enter-tainment, also reserve the theatre for shows and concerts.
Mission councillors questioned whether rental fees and ticket
prices should increase to helps with costs.
“We have to keep in mind who our clients are and not overcharge them,” said Sutherland. “There’s only so much people can pay to rent a facility.”
As for increasing ticket prices, Suther-land explained the theatre doesn’t pro-duce or present per-formances and doesn’t run the ticketing office. It receives one dollar
for every ticket sold. Mission’s chief
administrative offi-cer Ken Bjorgaard said one of the reasons the funding, which has been approved by council, was withheld is because the school district has not been paying $20,000 a year for a school liaison offi-cer from the RCMP.
Heinrichs pointed out there hasn’t been a school liaison officer since 2012 and noted
officers in other school districts, such as Coquitlam, Vancouver, Surrey, Delta, and Rich-mond are funded by the police department.
The role of school liaison officers relates more to police work than school work, said Heinrichs.
R e p r e s e n t a t i v e s from the MPS and the district will meet to develop a new fund-ing plan for the the-atre, and the district
will pay out the money
that’s owed this week.

the University of the

Mission’s campus of care will include a resi-dence for mental health clients next year.
The former Pleasant View Care Home will be converted into a new 54-bed mental health residential campus, Fra-ser Health announced Wednesday. It will include three sections, including a 19-bed residential care facility, a 22-bed assisted living centre, and 13 bachelor suites.
The new facility will offer three levels of care for mental health patients, said Meryl McDowell, director for mental health and sub-stance use services for
Fraser Health.The residential care
facility provides the high-est level of support to cli-ents and is more “inten-sively” staffed, while the bachelor suites offer clients an independent living atmosphere with their own access to the building. Everyone in a bachelor suite will have a case manager to help them work on getting bet-ter and resuming a more independent lifestyle.
“Recovery is not only possible, but expected,” said McDowell. “We try to support people to try to live in the least intrusive environment as possible.”
Clients that fit in this type of setting are typ-ically diagnosed with schizophrenia, mood dis-
order or anxiety disorder, and need help adjusting their medications or set-ting goals for recovery, McDowell explained.
The assisted living pro-gram, which provides 24/7 care for mental health clients, is new to Fraser Health. Clients in this environment have access to light house-keeping, meals and social and recreation support, but they also have their own independent living
units with a microwave and sink.
The new care facility, which is expected to be ready in early 2015, will
be operated by Pleasant View Housing Society.
The renovations, which will begin in about two months, are not exten-sive, said McDowell. “The facility has been well maintained.”
As the health author-ity works to renovate the facility, it is ending con-
tracts with existing ser-vice providers next year which offer care to cli-ents with mental health challenges. The homes affected are Katalin, Meadowview Manor, and Mission Hills Manor.
Katalin, located on Sec-ond Avenue, is a 14-bed facility where clients are primarily in their 40s and 50s, and are gener-ally more independent. Meadowview Manor has 14 beds and is located on Third Avenue. Resi-dents range in age from their late 20s to mid-50s. Mission Hills Manor is a 13-bed facility for men on Parr Road.
The facilities are aging, explained Tasleem Juma, spokesperson for Fraser Health, noting the change
is based on the challenges of the existing structures, such as inadequate com-mon space and limited wheelchair accessibility, not the level of care pro-vided.
By consolidating the homes, Fraser Health is adding 13 more beds to serve clients with mental health challenges in Mis-sion, Juma added.
Residents in all threehomes can choose to move to the new mentalhealth residential cam-pus or out of the commu-nity to be closer to family and other support people.
“We will focus on mak-ing choices that are bestfor them,” said McDowell.

Mounties step up patrols at Stave LakeCarol Aun MISSION RECORD
Mission Mounties are now patrolling the west side of Stave Lake on a regular basis.
Officers toured the area for the first time this year over the Easter weekend and estimated there were between 30 and 200 people using the area at various times.
“The number of persons found in the area varied considerably depending upon the weather conditions,” said Mis-sion RCMP Sgt. Shaun Wright.
The west side of Stave Lake has long been an area of concern for the District of Mission. There is widespread ille-gal gun activity, vandalism and garbage dumping.
In previous stories, Mission’s direc-tor of forestry Bob O’Neal said reports describe a scene out of “the wild, wild west.”
During the long weekend, police issued three tickets to dirt bikers who were riding without the required insurance on the forestry road and spoke to a few people who were illegally target shooting.
“Police provided education on the firearms discharge bylaw and the persons were cooperative,” noted Wright.
Mounties also received two calls for service. The first one was a report of a dog biting another dog, and the other was for an assault, which resulted in charges against four men, two from Langley, one from Surrey, and one from Chilliwack.
All of the people police interacted with lived outside of Mis-sion, with most from Maple Ridge, Surrey and Langley.
Police are focusing on public safety, enforcing Mission’s
firearm discharge bylaw, and promoting family-friendly activity in the area.
While hunting is permitted in the area,target shooting isn’t, according to a Mis-sion bylaw.
“It’s a misconception that target shoot-ing is permitted,” noted Wright, who said police will also have a presence on Dewd-ney Trunk Road close to the start of for-estry road to speak to people about accept-able uses in the area.
The District of Mission will begin increas-ing its patrols during fire season.
“Our biggest risk out there is forest fire,” said Mission’s forestry director Bob O’Neal.“As it gets hotter and drier into June, July, August, and sometimes September, we’llhave people on call during weekends.
The district will also organize fire patrolsif necessary, he added.
“We encourage the community to take ownership of the area,” said Wright.
Police will also be stepping up their patrols at the end of Sylvester Road.
“We just want to ensure users are utilizing the area in asafe and responsible manner as well,” Wright explained. “Wedo expect an increase (in the area) due to recreation target shooters moving there from the (west) Stave Lake area.”
The west side of Stave Lake is a favourite spot for weekend parties and off-road vehicles. Mission RCMP are now conducting patrols to clamp down on illegal shooting and other activity to make the area more family-friendly.

Former Mission school district super-intendent Frank Dunham has dropped a lawsuit against the Mission school district.
The case has been dismissed by both parties, according to a statement released by school board trustee Edie Heinrichs on Wednesday.
“The school district was always of the view that the claim filed by Mr. Dunham did not have legal merit and we are pleased this matter is now com-pleted,” she said.
In March 2013, Dunham alleged his former employer breached his employment contract and filed a civil claim in B.C. Supreme Court to try to get compensation in recognition of his long service, in addition to his severance package.
Details of the severance Dunham received are confidential, says Hein-richs who described it as “lucrative.”
According to the Statement of Exec-utive Compensation on the Mission Public School’s website, in the 2012-2013 fiscal year, Dunham’s employ-ment was terminated in January 2013, and he received 18 months salary continuance as severance. The same document states Dunham was paid $204,106 during the last fiscal year, which ran from June 2012 to June 2013. He received $188,996 in 2010-2011 and $200,210 in 2010-2011.
Dunham started in Mission in 1981 as a Grade 5/6 teacher and was promoted numerous times until he was became superintendent in 2004. He was on a personal leave for six months before his employment ended in January last year.
Former superintendent drops civil claim
Investigation delayed
Crime rates drop in Mission
Carol AunMISSION RECORD
Mission council has put off discussions about hiring a consul-tant to examine staff-ing issues at municipal hall for another two weeks.
Last week council unanimously approved a motion proposed by Coun. Nelson Tilbury asking staff to research the cost, propose terms
of reference for an external consultant to examine and evalu-ate staffing issues and operational capabilities at the district.
The item was sup-posed to be on the April 22 agenda.
“The CAO (chief administrative officer) advised us he’s not ready today,” said Coun. Jenny Stevens on Mon-day night. “He’s only
received input from three councillors so far.”
At the April 14 meet-ing, Mission CAO Ken Bjorgaard suggested organizing a workshop for council to discuss the terms of refer-ence, but that idea was rejected because it would delay action. Instead, councillors agreed to offer input to staff individually.
Thirty-four full-time District of Mission employees, including nine senior managers have resigned in the past 2.5 years, while 13 have retired. Tilbury said he believes staff left because of “micro-managing from the CAO and bullying and berating from council” and suggested an inde-pendent consultant should investigate.
Crime rates in Mis-sion have dropped in the first quarter of 2014, compared to the same time period last year.
Mission RCMP Insp. Richard Konarski pre-sented the first quar-terly report on policing to Mission council Mon-day night.
According to the report, violent crimes in Mission have decreased by almost one per cent.
Numbers also fell for property crime (almost 11 per cent), domestic violence (29 per cent), calls for service (three per cent), and traffic safety.
Traffic safety is bro-ken down into four cat-egories: impaired (38 per cent decrease), intersec-tion infractions (57 per cent decrease), seatbelt infractions (26 per cent decrease), speed related
infractions (two per cent decrease), and use of electronic device (five per cent decrease).
While overall property crime dropped almost 11 per cent, break and enters (not including residential, businesses or vehicles) and vehicle theft rose by 56 per cent and 27 per cent respec-tively.
The increase in break-ins mostly relate to
attacks on community mailboxes, said Konar-ski. “We’re working with the Lower Mainland District (RCMP) to deal with it.”
Other priorities for police this year are combating auto theft, and maintaining a pres-ence downtown and in the Mission Interpretive Forest.

OPINION Published & printed by Black Press Ltd. at 33047 First Avenue, Mission V2V 1G2
There are myriad problems that can present themselves daily.
They can be annoying or stress-ful to varying degrees, and cumula-tively, a legitimate concern. There are countless ways for people to vent about common, everyday issues.
But millions of Canadians suffer daily with an often unseen and unar-ticulated affliction: depression.
This insidious mental health issue has been gaining attention for the past decade, and that positive focus must continue.
There still exists a stigma towards those who suffer mental health prob-lems, and that’s unfair and unnec-essary.
One in five Canadians will have to deal with some form of mental illness in their life. And according to Paul McCracken, who works at Mission’s Centennial Place as an employment specialist, many of the people who are diagnosed do hold down jobs and have a mortgage.
Commonly, those afflicted with depression will isolate themselves, or feel acute anxiety in social situations.
Depression is different than just feeling low. Someone experiencing it grapples with feelings of severe despair over an extended period of time. Almost every aspect of their life can be affected, according to the Canadian Mental Health Association.
Many suffer in silence because they fear how they will be perceived by their friends and family.
This should not be.Clinical depression is not a fail-
ing or weakness of character. It is a medical condition, which can often be mitigated through a combination of several factors such as therapy, lifestyle changes and/or medication.
Reaching out to people with all types of mental health challenges is something Centennial Place does daily, and the public is encouraged to come out and celebrate mental well-ness from May 5-9.
Tagged as Mental Health Week (see story on page 11), there are numer-ous events happening in Mission, with the aim of celebrating people’s strengths.
Make the time to get educated.

Inconvenient truths for Earth Day
Earth Day 2014 will likely go down in B.C. history as less exciting than last year’s event.
That was the day when, in the heat of the election campaign, NDP leader Adrian Dix announced in Kamloops that he doesn’t support the expansion of the Trans Mountain oil pipeline to its Burnaby terminal, because Vancouver shouldn’t become a “major oil port.”
As of this Earth Day, it has been an oil port for exactly a century, since Imperial Oil began work on B.C.’s first refinery in 1914, in what is now Port Moody. There were no pipelines then, so crude was moved by rail or tanker.
For 60 years, Trans Mountain has supplied the Chevron refinery in Burnaby that is southern B.C.’s last source of fuel. Some of the Alberta crude is piped south to be refined into fuels and some of that product is barged
back up to B.C. to keep our traffic moving.Today the proposal to expand and upgrade
that pipeline, and to build new oil and natu-ral gas pipelines across the north, dominate B.C.’s political scene.
In keeping with the educational aspect of Earth Day, here are some things you may not know about energy and the environment.
• A recent National Geographic report summarizes the main sources of oil in the oceans around North America. Media cov-erage focuses on tanker and pipeline spills, but they only account for eight per cent of the total.
Fully 60 per cent of the oil load in North American waters is from natural seeps, where oil leaks from seafloor rock. One of the world’s largest is off Santa Barbara, Califor-nia, where 20 to 25 tons flows out each day. It’s mostly consumed by oil-eating bacteria that have adapted and proliferated.
The next biggest source is leakage from cars and trucks, which collects on pavement and is flushed to sea when it rains.
• Earth Day is now preceded by Earth Hour, during which we are encouraged to turn out our lights to join a world-wide gesture of conservation. Many people use the occasion
for a candlelight dinner.Given that B.C.’s power is nearly all from
renewable hydroelectric sources, and that the paraffin used to make candles is derived from petroleum or coal, this feel-good ritual produces an increase in greenhouse gas emissions.
David Suzuki is now promoting the idea of
Earth Month, an expansion of the symbolic effort designed to “raise awareness.” This is a popular notion in the climate change in-dustry, which to date consists mostly of gov-ernment officials and activists flying around the world to conferences in exotic locations to sign agreements that lead to, well, not
much so far.• Unlike Earth Hour, B.C.’s carbon tax on
fuels actually appears to be helping to re-duce emissions.
An update to provincial data is due this year, but what we have shows a 5.7 per cent decrease in carbon dioxide and other green-house gases between 2007 and 2011.
Environment ministers have conceded that some of this is due to the recession that struck in 2008-2009. But since the economy has recovered and begun to grow again, emissions have continued to decline.
• There are simple things anyone can do, without gimmicks or government programs. One would be to stop protesting increased housing density in your community.
By far the largest source of greenhouse gas emissions in B.C., not to mention old-fash-ioned pollution, is transportation. By living closer to where we work, shop and play, we can exercise our legs instead of just our gas pedal foot to get around.

YOUR VIEWS
OP EDIT
Re: District staff departures draw concerns, April 4 edition.
The local papers have been rife with the negative happenings related to Mission council lately.
Having been a regular coun-cil attendee, I can attest that the negative behaviours started shortly after this council was elected. I have witnessed the bullying and the public humilia-tion heaped on local, well-mean-
ing taxpaying citizens.I have also observed demean-
ing comments to and about some staff members in front of the pub-lic.
Has this behaviour contributed to the inordinate number of staff turnovers?
The Record piece points to morale, distance to travel, retire-ment, and moving on, etc.
One suggestion to improve the
staffing situation of hiring man-agers would be to implement a points system that would allow points for various attributes such as experience, education, demea-nour, etc. One important qualifi-cation that could garner points should be “living and paying taxes in Mission,” or the intent to do so within the probation period, as several managers live out of town where taxes are possibly less. I
know you can’t force employees to live, pay taxes and shop where they receive their income. How-ever, the optics of the very people who have a huge impact on influ-encing the budget, which in turn sets the taxes, not even paying taxes here are troublesome.
The chamber of commerce should get behind this idea as I am sure they would agree those working, playing and paying taxes
in Mission are more apt to showallegiance to, and interest in, thecommunity as well as supporting local business.
With regards to council civility,the district could implement a course in anger management and respectful treatment of citizensfor those in positions of power.

I am writing to respond to the recent letter from Mr. Dennis Clark, former director of corporate adminis-tration for the District of Mission. As mayor for the District of Mis-sion, I always welcome feedback from resi-dents and businesses in our community. My door is always open and I will meet with anyone who asks for an appointment. The same can be said for our chief
administrative officer (CAO), Ken Bjorgaard.
Unfortunately, Mr. Clark did not choose to get in touch with either me or Mr. Bjorgaard. Instead, he chose to air his opinion in the Mis-sion Record, without first obtaining the facts.
Here are the facts. This council was elected on a change mandate. We have worked dili-gently, through the CAO, to address the serious and significant
financial challenges that the district was facing. Through his leadership, Mr. Bjor-gaard has affected this change and is building a stronger, more finan-cially sustainable orga-nization.
Every decision has been based on the best interests of the taxpayer, who cannot afford year over year tax increases. We are successfully reducing our debt, which will
enable us to reinvest that money into more community initiatives such as replacing aging infrastructure. By “liv-ing within our means” today, I believe that Mr. Bjorgaard and this council have created a path for Mission that will lead us toward a very bright future.
Mr. Clark retired nearly four years ago. Much has changed in the organization since that time, and more
than anyone, he should understand that issues are never as straight-forward as they might seem.
Yes, there has been change. And yes, change can be difficult. How one responds to change will be differ-ent for each individual. However, I am confi-dent that this organi-zation can continue to mange these changes effectively.
Employees at the Dis-
trict of Mission all work exceptionally hard for this community, and I am continually amazed at the extent of their dedication. I believe in finding the best people for the jobs available, and support Mr. Bjor-gaard in his attempt to do so. The District of Mission is the employer of choice in this com-munity, and will con-tinue to be so as we recruit talented and hard-working people to
join us on this journey.I would invite Mr.
Clark and any other cit-izen to contact me fora conversation about how we are going to get there. Ultimately, this council will stand onits record on Nov. 15, where the communitywill decide if we havedone our best for thetaxpayers of Mission.
Mayor Ted AdlemDistrict of Mission
This is the second of two columns address-ing what I see as the greatest threat to the B.C. environment in our lifetime.
The Alberta oil indus-try’s Northern Gateway plan is to export bitu-men to Asia via tank-ers from the B.C. coast. Under no circumstances should we allow that to happen. A bitumen spill at sea could destroy our coastline, together with the fish and wildlife that depend on it, for hundreds of years.
My first column dis-cussed the light oil spill by the Exxon Valdez and the terrible toll it took on the Alaskan habitat and fishery. It also gave proof that a bitumen spill would be far worse. A bitumen spill would be almost completely unrecoverable because it would sink and stay on the bottom of the seabed.
The solution that is best for Canada is to
build a refinery in Kiti-mat. I am promoting and backing this solu-tion. It will convert the bitumen to very light fuels that would float and evaporate if ever spilled. There are other enormous benefits:
- There will be a major reduction in greenhouse gases. We will use new cutting-edge Canadian technology in our refin-ery. It will be so clean that in combination with oilsands extraction there will be less CO2 than in the huge con-ventional oilfields and refineries of Iraq and Nigeria. In other words, the Kitimat refinery will neutralize the extra greenhouse gases gen-erated in Canada’s oil-sands. This refinery will be built in Asia if not in Kitimat, and if so, it will emit double the CO2 of our new design. This is the reason that Andrew Weaver of the BC Green Party is in favour of a Canadian refinery.
- An Asian refinery will also generate 100 train cars a day of very dirty coke (much fouler than B.C. coal) which
will be subsequently burnt in the atmo-sphere to create power. The Kitimat refinery will not result in the production of any coke. As we all live on one planet, it is far better for the global environment to build this refinery in Canada.
- Construction of the refinery will create 6,000 jobs in B.C. for five years. Operations at the refinery will result in more permanent jobs than any project has
ever created in B.C. with approximately 3,000 direct jobs. These will be highly paid perma-nent jobs, available for
the life of the refinery which should be in excess of 50 years. In addition, there will be thousands of other jobs created in spinoff local petrochemical com-panies and in indirect employment through-out the province.
- The Canadian and provincial governments, local regional districts and municipalities, and many First Nations, will share in billions of new tax dollars each year.
Unfortunately, our
Canadian oil compa-nies are not interested in building a new major refinery. They are focused on extraction
which is more profitable than refining. One of them challenged me to spearhead the refinery myself, so I am doing that. We have a solid business plan and as a consequence Chinese banks and other insti-tutions are prepared to lend us most of the funds required to build the greenest and most efficient refinery in the world. We are currently moving ahead with engineering design and environmental work.
We will also build a safe pipeline from Alberta to the refinery, with the active partici-pation of First Nations. Modern pipelines can be built and operated safely. Leak data is avail-able for everyone to see on Canadian and U.S. government websites and it proves recently constructed pipelines are not leaking. Further-more, some of the best pipelining companies in the world are based in Canada.
In addition, we will build a fleet of new tankers, powered by LNG rather than Bunker C oil, to transport the refined products to Asia. This way we know the tankers will be state-of-the-art and as safe as possible. The fleet will be owned by a company based in B.C., so it can-not shirk its legal liabil-ity if there ever is a spill at sea.
Let me be up front about my biases. I am
for creating thousandsof good permanent jobsin B.C. I am for creat-ing billions of new taxdollars for governmentcoffers. I am for reduc-ing the planet’s green-house gas emissions. I am for building an oil pipeline that will neverleak. I am for build-ing a modern tankerfleet that carries onlyrefined fuels that floatand evaporate if spilled.I am against shipping bitumen in tankers.
If you agree that we should not put bitumenin tankers, please con-tact your local MP andsay so. The Canadiangovernment makes a decision on NorthernGateway next month.

POSITIVE ILLUSIONSA realistic conception of oneself is sometimes considered a hallmark of the mentally healthy person. A person with low self-esteem is someone who devalues themself, or who has a deflated sense of self. Likewise, it is possible to have an inflated sense of self, and we all know how insufferable it is to be around those who think they are better, wiser,funnier, or more likable than they really are. Some people’s view of themselves is thus inflated, while others have a deflated sense of self. Most of us haveareas of our lives where we are seemingly oblivious to our faults. Current psychological research suggests that there may be some benefit to positive illusions, both about ourselves and others. These positive illusions become self-fulfilling prophecies. That is, we become the people we think we are, and others live up to or down to, the expectations we have of them. So, we should think positively about ourselves and others, and strive to live up to our own expectations.
We are bound to give thanks to God always for you, brethren,
as is fitting, because your faith is growing abundantly, and
the love of every one of you for one another is increasing.

A former inmate of Mission Insti-tution has been sentenced to eight years for manslaughter in relation to the death of a fellow prisoner.
James Darrell Saar, 38, was origi-nally charged in January 2013 with the second-degree murder of Troy Robert Squires, 40, who was being held indefinitely as a dangerous offender.
Saar pleaded guilty to the lesser charge of manslaughter April 17 in B.C. Supreme Court in Chilliwack and was sentenced the same day.
Squires was found dead in his cell of the medium-security prison on Dec. 2, 2011. He had begun serving
an indeterminate sentence in Jan-uary 2006 for forcible confinement, sexual assault, uttering threats, assault with a weapon, and chok-ing.
Saar was serving a life sentence for the 1997 murders of Karen Nay-towhow and her eight-year-old daughter Lacey in Paddockwood, Sask. They were hit repeatedly in the head with a hammer, and their bodies were set on fire.
Lacey had been sexually assaulted, and two other girls in the home who survived the attack had also been sexually assaulted.
Before Squires’ killing, Saar was eli-gible for parole in 2017. He was moved to a maximum-security prison out-side of B.C. after the incident.

The number of Mis-sion residents who rely on their vehicles to get from one placeto another is increas-ing, according to data from the Fraser Valley Regional District (FVRD).
Barclay Pitkethly,director of regional pro-grams for FVRD, pre-sented the results of the 2011 regional tripdiary to Mission coun-cil earlier this month. The information will be used to plan traffic infrastructure in the future.
The percentage of drivers increased from 63 per cent in 2008 to 67per cent in 2011. Com-muters carpooled less and the number of peo-ple who walk or cycleto their destination hasalso declined.
Transit ridershipnumbers increasedfrom two to three percent in the same timeperiod.
Of the estimated36,000 trips taken ona typical day in 2011,68.4 per cent of travel-lers remained in Mis-sion, while the majoritywho travelled outside the community headedsouth and westbound. About 15 per cent of thetrips were to Abbotsfordand 12.7 per cent wereto Langley. Trips thatoriginated from Missionto the neighbouring communities were sig-nificantly higher thantrips to Mission from the same communities, according to the report.

Everyone’s men-tal health should be celebrated, said Paul McCracken, employ-ment specialist at Cen-tennial Place (CP), who is hoping the community will do just that during Mental Health Week May 5-9.
“Whether things are going well for you, or if you’ve recovered from a mental illness, it’s something to celebrate,” McCracken explained.
This year’s theme to celebrate, connect, and grow reaches out to everyone.
One in five Canadians will experience mental illness in their lifetime, and the more people who are educated on the issue, the better, said McCracken, adding people who are diag-nosed with the condi-tion are typically people with jobs and a home,
although some may also struggle with addiction and poverty.
For example, people with depression tend to isolate themselves, feel trapped or have social anxiety, he explained. “One way for us to help is to reach out to people.”
CP serves more than 80 clients. Everyone who accesses the services has had a mental health diagnosis from a doctor or another health care professional.
“Centennial Place is a community where you can learn how to get well, connect with oth-ers, hear other people’s stories and learn how they deal with their prob-lems,” said McCracken.
People need to over-come the stigma attached to mental health, he added. “We don’t discuss a per-son’s diagnosis. We con-centrate on a person’s strength.”
Events are being planned throughout the week to celebrate men-tal health, beginning with an introduction to mindfulness and med-itation on May 5 at 11 a.m., and ending with a barbecue and open house on Friday from 1 to 4 p.m.
Other key events during the week include a wellness walk and rally and a mental wellness forum.
The Wellness Walk and Rally begins at 11 a.m. at Mission Hills Mall. Participants will carry signs to promote mental health and end its stigma as they walk up and down the Lougheed Highway.
The wellness forum, It’s My Life, takes place at 7 p.m. at the library. A former Mission cafe owner, Briant Gross-muck, will be one of the speakers sharing his personal story about
mental illness and his journey to recovery. He now heads up the community kitchen at
CP and teaches others about health eating and safe food practices.
For a list of events tak-
ing place, visit centen-nialplacemission.ca. All events are open to the public.

A member of the Abbotsford “bethel” of Job’s Daughters Interna-tional has been named Miss British Columbia Job’s Daughter.
Kailie Bateman, 17, was given the title during the organization’s recent “grand session” – its annual convention.
This required her to go through an interview, written test, ritual rec-itation, and a pageant, where she answered impromptu questions.
Bateman is a former Abbotsford resident who now lives in Mission and attends Heritage Park Secondary.
She previously attended Godson ele-mentary and Abbotsford middle school in Abbots-ford.
Job’s Daughters Inter-national is open to girls from the ages of 10 to 19 who are related to a master mason. The orga-nization teaches leader-ship skills, public speak-ing skills, charitable ser-
vice, respect for parents and family, and love of God, country and home.
Bateman is a fourth-generation Job’s Daughter who has many master masons in her family. Some of her fam-ily members also belong to the Order of the East-ern Star.

Heading into her debut appearance at the national wrestling championships, Alexia Seal was hoping to reach the podium.
The 15-year-old Grade 9 student at Mis-sion Secondary never dreamed she’d achieve that goal twice over, and that she’d earn the right to represent Can-ada.
At the Canadian cadet (age 15-16) and juvenile (16-18) cham-pionships in Guelph, Ont. earlier this month,
Seal opened with a bronze medal in the 40-kilogram cadet girls freestyle competition.
She followed that up with a silver the next
day in the FILA cadet trials, which decides priority access for national team wres-tling assignments.
She’s the first alter-
nate for the Pan Amer-ican Championships in Brazil, and will have the opportunity to attend other tournaments and training camps with
the national team over the summer.
“When I started inwrestling, which was just a year and a half ago, I never thought in my mind that I would end up on the Cana-dian team,” enthused Seal, who won bronze at the B.C. high school provincials in March.
“At first, I didn’thave very much tech-nique, but I was strong enough to overpower my opponents. After a while, I developedmy technique, and it’scome a long way since I first started.”

New Golf family offers quality at the right priceThe new seventh generation VW Golf arrives later this spring with a 2015 model designation.I have already had a chance to drive three examples of the new edition in Europe so I can offer you a sneak peek at what this very popular VW has going for it before it arrives here. The all-new car might look like the previous Golf but it is built on a platform that is shared across the VW group and represents a massive investment for the German manufacturer. This new platform, called MQB, enables the engineers to build all kinds of new products, be they bigger, smaller, wider or taller. What went into the design of the Golf represents a big step forward for Volkswagen as the latest model is 100kg lighter than the outgoing car but it is bigger, stiffer and safer than before. LooksIt could be argued that the new Golf looks too much like the older model but interacting with this new product quickly displays a level of refinement and finish that might be found in an upmarket Audi product. (This MQB platform is shared with the all-new Audi A3). Starting at $18,995, the base Golf is priced right in the heart of the compact market but this car sports a fully independent suspension, direct injection turbocharged engine and more power than much of the competition, at 170hp. The Golf GTI is my personal favourite due to the bad-boy looks, bigger wheels and improved engine and suspension. It starts at $27,995. The hot-hatch Golf R will arrive about a year after
the Golf and GTI and will come in at roughly the same price as the last R, right around $40,000 but fully loaded.InsideThe upside to having a slightly bigger platform is interior space and the cabin of the latest Golf does feel bigger, especially side-to-side. The centre console is wider and the dash is fitted with all-new switches and dials. Once again, the feel and look is almost Audi quality. Having a chance to drive the base car all the way up to the Golf R showed just how good the base car is. The only difference is the sportier seats
and splashier trim on the more expensive cars, but the overall design is the same from car to car and all exemplify the simple, yet elegant approach VW takes with all its interiors. DriveGone is the old 2.5-litre. 5-cylinder, replaced by an all-new 1.8-litre turbocharged 4-cylinder base engine. This engine too produces 170 but is more efficient, responsive and features state of the art technology. In the compact set, this kind of technology is unheard of at the roughly $19,000 asking price. Taking it up a notch is the legendary Golf GTI, now with 210hp from a new 2.0-litre turbocharged 4-cylinder. I had a shot driving this last year in Austria and I can say without question, this combination is fantastic. The Golf R is the ultimate Golf with roughly 300hp and an all wheel drive system. The same system is used in the all-new Audi S3 but this car comes fully loaded and will be roughly $4,000 less than the starting price of
the S3. A smart shopper might want to wait for the R over the S.
Verdict
This new Golf family is set to take on some very established players in the compact segment. With a hatchback design, this car has always been a more practical design than sedans like the Honda Civic or Toyota Corolla. With superb road manners, advanced engines and German engineering, the starting price looks like a winner. A big reason for this is the Golf is assembled in Mexico and these cars come into Canada without duty, (Thanks NAFTA) so VW added more content and kept the price low. The good news for diesel lovers is that the TDI en-gine will be available right out of the gate and now represents about 50 percent of Golf sales. This engine too has been modified to make it as fuel efficient as possible. All told, the Golf is more polished car than much of the competition and offers a trim level and price for all types of buyers, from basic to flat-out performance.
The LowdownPower: 1.8L turbo with 170hp, 2.0L turbo with 210hp, 2.0L turbo with 300hp and 2.0L diesel.Fill-up: Not available yet. Sticker price: $18,995-$40,000

“I’d knocked off 200,000 km. Hopefully, she’s too naïve to notice”
I surprised my family with a trip to Hawaii. They didn’t have a clue how I paid for it. But they thought I was the best dad in the world. While we were away, I bought a car on eBay. It had over 350,000 km on it. No one will want to buy this piece of junk, I thought.Unless. I could just lower the mileage on it a little bit. And it won’t hurt anybody, right?One problem – I had no idea how to change an odometer*. But as it turns out, it’s much easier than I’d expected. With an odometer tool, I changed the reading to 164,500 km. Still a lot, but less than half the real clicks. My ad: “Minivan – old but in great condition! Only 164,500kms - it sat in my garage for the last 5 years. Must sell. If you’re looking for an older, but reliable and safe vehicle, call my cell and we’ll negotiate.”Looking back, I realized I’d knocked almost 200,000 km off the vehicle. But I shined it up and put some newer used tires on it so they wouldn’t give away its true condition.Will this get me in trouble? I wondered. I wasn’t doing anything wrong, really – this just gives me a chance to make some more money on the vehicle. I got a phone call from a young single mom who could only afford an older vehicle. We decided to meet at her son’s school. As I was showing her the car, I noticed the carpet, the door handles and the pedals kind of gave away its true condition. Hopefully she’s too naïve to notice, I thought.
Forty minutes later, our exchange was complete. I probably made an extra $2,000 because of the odometer! If I’d only done this to all the other cars I sold!Suddenly, my mind began processing the implications. That minivan was pretty much at the end of its life. That young mom is expecting the vehicle to last her for a few more years. At best, I see it lasting one more.Parts will start failing, calling for expensive repairs. I’m certain she doesn’t have the money for that. All I’m hoping is that it doesn’t break down on the highway. Maybe there was a reason I never did it before. Maybe, just maybe, I had a conscience up until now.
*Odometer: The law allows an odometer to be replaced when broken, but the repair must be recorded and the true mileage needs to be disclosed. CarProof and ICBC vehicle history reports can reveal more about how far a vehicle has really traveled. Even AirCare, where available, can help. And Walt is wrong; altering an odometer is a crime.

There was more sizzle in my New York steak dinner than on the show floor at the Big Apple’s internation-al auto show.It seems the Big Four shot their lightning bolts at the preceding Detroit and Los Angeles auto extravagan-
zas and left it to the import manufacturers to dazzle here.Nissan did not disappoint with the unveiling of a classy looking crossover in the shape of the all-wheel drive 2015 Nissan Murano. The mid-size model first showed up in 2002 and this new model marks the birth of the third-gener-ation. The Nissan-named V-Motion nose and boomerang-shaped tail-lights ensure it makes an impression on the observer, coming and going, and distinguishes itself from its rivals.Inside, up to five passen-gers can expect more of a luxury ride than they might have enjoyed in the outgoing version – heated and cooled front seats will impress those upfront. The trend in this segment
to include huge sunroofs continues here.Under the hood, Nissan stays with the trusty 3.5-li-tre six-cylinder powerplant matched to a continuously variable transmission. Expect to see the Murano in the showrooms at the tail end of the year.Before moving on, the Nis-san Sport Sedan Concept should be mentioned as it offers a clue to what the new Maxima might resem-ble. And boy, is it a looker despite the horrible orange colour of the show car! It too features a panoramic roof stretching almost from the windshield to the rear window. A production mod-el version is expected later in the year, which suggests the L.A. show might benefit from that timetable.Any new Toyota Camry is an instant hit, especially in
North America where it’s been the best selling car for 12 years. Despite that, the Japanese manufacturer launched an all-new 2015 model, just three years af-ter introducing a redesign.It incorporates design touches now appearing in sibling models, including a deeper grille that more resembles an upmarket Lexus. Interior materials are upgraded and a large central display matches the design trend of its competitors. Two trims are added; a sporty XSE with some luxury touches and a Hybrid SE. Toyota sticks with its 2.5-litre, four-cylin-der, and 3.5-litre, six-cylin-der engines plus its Hybrid Synergy Drive.Hyundai would like to put a serious dent in the Toyota

Camry success story with its own mid-size sedan – the redesigned Sonata. It’s likely the introduction of a sharp-looking Sonata in 2011 helped prompt Toyota into taking a serious look at upping the ante in the Camry. Other compet-itors have also risen to the challenge. Now the seventh-generation, newly styled, sharper-looking 2015 Sonata raises the bar again with improved ride and handling plus advanced driver assistance and safety equipment. Unlike the Camry, the Sonata stays with purely four-cylinder engines. Stan-dard is a 2.4-litre power plant and a turbocharged 2.0L four is an option.The one domestic man-ufacturer that did show up with something more exciting than the rest was Jeep, which introduced the compact Renegade. It
is the iconic brand’s first foray into the small SUV segment.Its funky looks and fuel efficiency should make it an urban dweller hit but it also boasts best-in-class off-road capability, which may just bring in buyers from the growing outdoor adventure seekers.Two engine choices: a 2.4-litre Tigershark engine with MultiAir2 paired to the segment’s first nine-speed automatic transmission, or a 1.4-litre MultiAir Turbo engine with six-speed manual trans-mission.Prices for all of the above

The old saying “beauty is in the eye of the beholder” wasn’t coined in reference to cars, but it might as well have been.
Some cars, such as the 1963-67 Corvette Sting Ray and Jaguar E-Type, are almost universally admired, while others are passion-ately loved by some and
loathed by others. Here are five of the most polarizing:1. 1963-64 Studebaker Avanti: The Avanti was a Hail Mary play to save the ailing Studebaker Cor-
poration with a stunning European-style GT car. Ardent Avanti fans point to its timeless styling, which was supervised by the great Raymond Loewy, and the
fact that the car remained in production in one form or another for five decades. Non-fans find the grille-less front end and port-hole-like headlights to be a
non-starter. A recent uptick in prices may indicate that Avanti lovers will have the last laugh on this one.2. 1971-73 Buick Riviera: The Boattail Riviera was
one of the last truly auda-cious GM creations, and William Mitchell pulled out all of the stops with a huge, dramatic design including a pointed boattail reminiscent of some great 1930s cars. Haters just find it huge and over-the-top. 3. 1980-85 Cadillac Seville: The slant back or bustle trunk Seville was —like the Boattail Riviera — in some ways a throwback to the 1930s-1950s, cribbing a trunk from Bentleys and Daimlers of the era. Some people will come to blows over the merits of this version of the 1980-85 Seville, while some find it
to be a caricature; it’s best if these two groups aren’t sharing the same air space. Regardless, nobody sits on the fence about this car.4. 1965-69 Chevrolet Corvair: The first-gener-ation Corvair, introduced in 1959, was a pleasing
and clean design. But the second-generation was drop-dead gorgeous. No less an authority than David E. Davis, Jr., writing for Car and Driver, called it one of the most beautiful cars America had produced during the post-war era. Butmany bow-tie fans — used to fins and lots of chrome or the long hood, short rear deck look of the Cama-ro and Chevelle — found nothing to like about the Corvair. I tend to agree with the fans here. It’s a beautiful little car.5. 1955-75 Citroën DS: In its native France, the DS can do no wrong. The letters “D-S” in French sound remarkably like the French word for “goddess.” Then the French also think that Jerry Lewis is a god. To most Americans, the sci-fi style of the DS just comes off as whale-like and weird.Rob Sass is the vice-president of content for Hagerty Insurance.

THIS IS OUR MISSIONDistrict Update
Celebrate Youth WeekYouth Week is an international celebration of youth held annually during the rst week of May. It is a week of fun, interaction and celebration intending to build a strong connection between young people and their communities and to pro le the issues, accomplishments and diversity of youth across the province.
As part of the Youth Week celebrations, the
Mission Youth Lounge Committee is hosting the annual Mission Youth Fest event on Saturday May 3, 2014 from 12 noon to 10 p.m. at the Mission Leisure Centre. Activities include skate-board & dance competitions, a performance by Childsplay, Graf ti Art, Henna, Chalk Art, T-Shirt Tye-Dye, Library Live and On Tour, Wood & Soapstone Carving, Dunk Tank, Sumo Suit Wrestling, Food Eating Contests, Giant Rock Climbing Wall, a Dance, and much more!
Bears in our BackyardThe arrival of spring and warmer temperatures also means that wildlife will start to appear more regularly in urban areas. Wildlife conservation is a provincial responsibility under the Ministry of the Environment. If you see a bear in town, notice an aggressive bear, or nd that they have been in your garbage or fruit trees, please contact the provincial conservation of cer line, (1-877-952-7277), so that the information can be tracked.
Calling this hotline does not necessarily result in the reported bear being trapped and destroyed; rather, staff there will provide advice, make an assessment of the actual hazard and only take further action, if necessary.
The province also largely funds the WildSafe (formerly Bear Aware) Coordinator, who will work out of the FVRD’s of ce again this year, likely starting in June. The WildSafe Coordinator’s role is one of education and outreach. Similarly, the District of Mission’s Environmental Services department can assist the community by creating awareness and educating residents on how to reduce the con icts between residents by sending letters to, but is unable to address bear con icts directly.
We have some additional information on our web site at http://www.mission.ca/municipal-hall/departments/environment/wildlife/.

Pets often make ideal companions. They are around when a person
needs support, they can provide protection for those living alone, they’re always willing to lend an ear to problems, and many tend to offer unconditional love.
Seniors facing an empty nest or the loss of a spouse may find pets can buoy their spirits. Studies have shown that seniors can benefit both mentally and physically from having a pet around. Pets can alleviate
anxiety, depression and boredom.
While pets can provide comfort and companionship, they remain a significant responsibility. Seniors should find an animal that will fit in with their lifestyles. This is an important consideration for those seniors who travel frequently or have mobility issues.
In addition, men and women living in senior communities or assisted living facilities should determine if there are any pet
restrictions in place. Any pet can try a person’s
patience at times, especially when a kitty has used a sofa as a scratching post or when a pooch needs to be let into the yard at 3 a.m. But for many pet owners, the benefits of having a pet far outweigh the negatives.
Here are some of the many ways that pet ownership can be good for your health:
• Lower blood pressure. Petting a dog or cat can lower blood pressure, as can watching a fish

swim around a tank. Those with hypertension may want to purchase or adopt a companion animal to help lower their blood pressure.
• Reduce stress. Stress is something people face on a daily basis. According to a National Health Interview Survey, 75 per cent of the general population experiences at least some stress every two weeks, and many times that stress is moderate to severe. Research has indicated that when people spend time with a pet their levels of cortisol, a hormone associated with stress, is lowered while their level of serotonin, a hormone associated with improved mood and well-being, is increased.
• Lower cholesterol. Lifestyle factors associated with pet ownership, particularly a focus on increased physical health and activity, can help lower cholesterol levels.
• Fight depression:. Many therapists have prescribed pet therapy as a method to alleviating and recovering from depression. A
pet is an unconditional friend and can provide that listening ear a person needs to talk through problems.
• Improve physical activity levels. Heading to the gym is one way to get a workout, but spending an hour walking the dog or tossing around a ball for a game of chase and fetch is another way to get the heart pumping.
• Reduce stroke incidences. There has been evidence that cat owners are less likely to suffer strokes than people who do not have cats. Researchers are not sure of the connection, but surmise that cats have a more calming nature than other types of pets.
• Greater opportunities for socialization: Humans are social animals and need to interact with others. Pet owners have a tendency to want to share time and experiences with other pet owners. Pets can provide opportunities for people to get together.
The companionship and love pets provide could be a key benefit in promoting good personal health.

Mission OAPO started in 1946B.C Old Age Pensioners’ Organization (OAPO)
was instituted in 1932 and incorporated in 1937.The B.C. Pensioners’ and Seniors’ Organization
promotes all matters pertaining to the welfare of the elder citizens of B.C. It presents resolutions to various levels of government and its agencies on issues that have been voted on and passed by members at the annual convention.
The B.C. Pensioners’ and Seniors’ Organization is concerned with all aspects of seniors’ lives, including, pensions, taxation, finances, health issues, home support, medicare and Pharmacare, housing and rental issues, social safety, abuse, neglect, fair treatment and loneliness.
In pursuit of these objectives the organization is governed by the principles of democracy and is non-partisan, non-racial and non-denominational.
In 1982 the B.C. OAPO established a Scholarship Society which provides scholarships to students in gerontology.
At the annual convention, members discuss and vote on the resolutions submitted by branches throughout B.C. Members of the provincial board are also elected at these conventions.
In May 1946, Mission OAPO, Branch 28 obtained its charter.
In August 1946, the first milestone for Branch 28 was to work with other OAPO groups and the western provincial governments to increase pensions, which had started at $20 in 1927 and was still only at $30 in 1946.
With in a year, after much hard work by many people, it had risen to $75.
In 1956, the OAPO Branch 28 helped to get Pleasant View started and in 1957 hosted its first OAPO convention.
The BCOAPO is affiliated with COSCO (Councilof Senior Citizens Organization).

Why do so many denture wearers struggle with poorly fitting dentures? What can be done to improve the fit? Is there any hope?
As a denturist I hear these comments from frustrated individuals every day. Before proceeding with any treatment I always spend time explaining why full and partial dentures have limitations. Here are some very important facts that everyone needs to know about dentures:
• The upper and lower jaws are designed for teeth. The periodontal ligament secures the teeth in the jaws and during chewing and swallowing it creates tensional forces that keep the jaw bones healthy.
• When some or all teeth are removed and dentures are placed the periodontal ligament disappears. This means that proprioception is lost, which is the sensation you experience when teeth touch during chewing and swallowing. Dentures now sit on the jaw bones and every time denture teeth meet they transfer pressure forces to the gums and jaws. Over time these forces cause jaw bone shrinkage. This shrinkage or bone atrophy is often imperceptible and occurs over a long period of time, often years and decades. Eventually when it is time to get new dentures the jaw bones have suffered excessive bone loss and it is very difficult to make well-fitting dentures.
• The upper jaw bone is usually in much better shape than the lower. This has everything to do with jaw size and chewing forces. The lower jaw is usually about half the size of the upper jaw which means that when the denture teeth meet during chewing the lower jaw receives double the forces than the upper jaw bone which leads to greater bone loss in the lower jaw.
• The size and width of the remaining jaw bone determines the fit and function of a denture, which means the more bone the better the denture will fit.
So, what can be done to ensure that dentures fit well?
• First of all it is important to understand that full and partial dentures require regular check-ups and maintenance to ensure that they functions as well as possible. Since bone loss is very gradual it is crucial that dentures are relined regularly, about every two years, to compensate for jaw bone shrinkage and to ensure that the chewing forces are evenly distributed over the entire jaw bone.
• Second, dentures need to be replaced on a regular basis to restore proper chewing function and to rebuild facial appearance to compensate for lower jaw shrinkage. Most dental insurance plans allow new dentures every five years. Why wait ten or even 20 years before getting a new set of false
teeth? If you wait this long your lower jaw has usually shrunk away so much that your mouth has sunk in and the lower jaw has slipped forward.
• Is there any hope to get great fitting dentures when I talk about all these limitations? Now this is the best news of all! Would you like to be able to eat an apple or corn on the cob? Dental implants are a wonderful option that allow denture wearers to eat whole foods once again that taste so much better and are much healthier. Does an upper denture make you gag? An upper denture on implants can be reduced to a horseshoe which is much easier to adjust to. Our clinic works with a team of dedicated dentists who will place dental implants and then we make the dentures that fit on the implants. Looking back over the past eight years at my denture clinic I have never had a singleimplant denture patient complain that they should not have had implants. Quite to the contrary many of them wish they had had implants placed many years earlier as they enjoy eating healthy food onceagain.
• If you have any questions or would like to discuss your denture needs please call Fischer Denture Clinic at 604-814-0244 and come in for a complimentary consultation to ensure that you get dentures that fit.www.fischerdentures.com

Dental Implants gave us a confi dent smile
These people have something to smile about. They used to wear dentures, which caused discomfort, an inability to eat many foods and a lack of con dence when it came to smiling and talking.
Now they enjoy the freedom of NobelSmile dental implants, which areas close to natural teeth as you can get. People who lose a tooth want to replace it with something permanent, says Dr. Lui, instead of something they have to remove. “Once you give someone new, permanent teeth, you can see their personality shine through again.”
“Whether you have a single tooth, several teeth or everyone of them missing...we can help.”

Like puzzles? Then you’ll love Sudoku. This mind-bending puzzle will have you hooked from the moment you square off.
How it works: Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a Sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fi ll each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can fi gure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle. Look for the solution in next month’s puzzle section of Living 55 Plus.

The Mission Soap-box Derby has been scheduled for June 14.
The 16th annual race sees kids rac-ing down Stave lake Street – between Knight Avenue and 11 Avenue – to vie for the trophy and title of fastest racer in their age category.
In addition to the racing, the day will feature hot dog and pudding-eating con-tests, games, a climb-ing wall, demonstra-tions and refresh-ments. Race day check-in begins at 7:30 a.m. and races get rolling at 9 a.m.
If inclement weather strikes, alter-nate race days will be Aug. 23 and Sept. 13.
And if you don’t have your own racer, kids can be fitted for one of the Mis-sion Soapbox Derby Association’s safe-ty-inspected, winning vehicles.
Pre-race/inspection day is June 1 at the Mission Leisure Cen-tre between 9 a.m. and 2 p.m. Registration is open to participants eight to 14 years old for $35. If the June 1 date is rained out, a second pre-race and inspection day has been scheduled for Aug. 10.
Following the inau-gural run of Mission Mayor Ted Adlem last year, adult races are returning, for $50 per entrant.
The soapbox derby has been running in Mission off and on since 1946. The event grew, attract-ing 20,000 people in 1956. In 1974, due to a lack of interest and the withdrawal of a major sponsor, the derby was cancelled.
It was resurrected in 1999. The Mission and District Soapbox Derby Association has been running the derby since 2002.

RYKERSHenry
March 1, 1950 ~ April 15, 2014
It is with heart and soul we announce the passing of a very loved man. Henry was born in Eindhoven, Holland. At the age of 7 his family immigrated and made their home in Mission, BC. After graduating in 1969 Henry worked for a brief period of time at Cominco mines in Trail. He then moved back to Mission and worked for the District of Mission. This was followed by a period of time in private construction. In 1986 Henry moved to Princeton with his family and began a fulfi lling career with the Town and Community of Princeton. His love and dedication to family and community lives on in the hearts of all who knew him. Henry was predeceased by his father Peter, in 1983 and his mother Mary, in 2010. Henry is survived by his wife April, his son Matthew, daughter Lisa and granddaughter Jessica, daughter Laura and grandsons Brady, Taylor, Jack and Sailor, brother Ron (Jodie) and niece Amanda, nephew Ryan, and many extended family mem-bers in Holland, Australia, Mission, Maple Ridge and Salmon Arm.A son, a husband, a father, a brother, an uncle, a cousin, a boss, but most of all a friend to all. His love, laughter, joking nature and “stories” to this day have left a smile and a bewildered look on many.It is at the request of Henry that no public service be held but he sincerely wishes that you take time and set aside a day and enjoy the “Moment”, with those who are your family and friends - listen to your favourite tunes, enjoy a great meal, perhaps catch the big one or just go fi shing, laugh long and loud, hug lots.
