INDEPENDENT LIVING IS COMING TO
STEVESTON SPRING 2012
One of the most talked about projects in
Steveston right now is the buildings being
erected on the corner of No. 1 Road and
Chatham Street. For those that have
watched the project emerge since late 2009
with the demolition of the ANAF Unit 284
Clubhouse, the changes to the site are
astounding. For those who are new to the
area or those that may not know the history
of the site, the property located at 11900 No.
1 Road was originally the site of the
Steveston Fisherman’s Hospital Complex.
From 1900 to 1942 the Hospital complex
was administered by the Fisherman’s
Benevolent Society and was the site of the
first hospital in Richmond which was also
Canada’s first hospital to offer socialized
medicine. In 1947 the Steveston Unit 284 of
the Army, Navy and Air Force Veterans of
Canada purchased the land.
In April 2009, the Steveston Unit 284 of the
Army, Navy and Air Force Veterans of
Canada together with Steveston (Unit 284)
Holdings Ltd. formed Steveston 284 Seniors’
Housing Society, a non-profit, registered
charity, and they were tasked with seeing the
development through to completion. So, the
project located at No. 1 Road and Chatham
Street in Richmond, will be a two building
development connected in an ‘H’ pattern
encompassing:
•
•
…...………………………………………………
144 seniors’ housing units with integrated
support services, owned and managed by
Steveston 284 Seniors’ Housing Society;
and
A commercial building comprised of a lounge
and clubhouse for the Steveston Unit 284 of
the Army, Navy and Air Force Veterans
Association will also be built on the site.

Construction started in October 2010 and is
anticipated to be complete and ready for
tenants by April 2012.
The total capital cost of this development is
approximately $46.6 million.
The Government of Canada, through
Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation,
will provide approximately $2,227,500, under
Canada’s Economic Action Plan.
The Province of British Columbia will provide
approximately
$1,697,550
through
a
Provincial Infrastructure Grant.
Steveston Unit 284 of the Army, Navy and
Air Force Veterans of Canada provided land
valued at approximately $8,310,000
We have been working hard both with what
you can see and what you can’t. Through
our
website,
http://steveston284seniorshousing.webs.com
we have kept the community up to date with
the development, as information became
available we uploaded it to the web site and
we have kept a photo book of our progress
for all to see.
In late 2009 interest was expressed by
individuals wanting to put their name on a
wait list, so we began a wait list for the
individuals who wanted the opportunity to
potentially be one of the first tenants in the
new Independent Living building. We have
received a deluge of requests from
Richmond
residents,
lower
mainland
residents and others from around the
Country and the world. Names are kept in
chronological order based on the date the
request was made so all qualified individuals
will have an equal opportunity to become
one of the first tenants. Check our website
for tenancy criteria and the link to add your
name to the wait list.
The most exciting progress that has
happened is that we are starting to contact
the people who asked to have their name
placed on the wait list to see if they are still
interested in becoming tenants. Small
groups of people will be invited to private
meetings to receive information on the
November 2011 Vol. 11, No. 1
1
development and to make their suite
selections. This does not stop individuals
from adding their name to the list as the wait
list will be used beyond the original tenants
to fill vacancies that would occur.

Premier Christy Clark sets off on
her jobs and trade mission to Asia
Premier Christy Clark sets off on her jobs
and trade mission to China and India today,
joined by nearly 350 representatives from
150
companies,
organizations
and
community.
The fact the Premier is personally leading
the jobs and trade mission ˆ and that she will
be joined by Ministers Pat Bell, Mike de Jong
and Steve Thomson ˆ is of critical
importance. Business everywhere is about
relationships, but nowhere more so than in
Asia.
Premier Christy Clark, along with the three
ministers, will open doors for the delegates
on the jobs and trade mission. Companies
such as Western Canada Seafood
Merchants and Processors, Flying Fresh Air
Freight, and the Vancouver International
Airport Authority from Richmond are some
which
will
benefit
from
this.
British Columbia seafood is just one of our
products in great demand in China. Last year
B.C. exported $957 million worth of seafood
globally, including $80 million to China. This
trade mission will be a great opportunity to
increase our seafood exports even more.
This is a great opportunity for Steveston,
which has the largest commercial fishing
fleet on the west coast of Canada. Increases
in seafood exports will inevitably mean more
business for seafood companies in
Steveston and more jobs. The greater
number of cargo flights that will be needed to
ship ever increasing volumes of seafood to
China will also mean more jobs at

Increased exports and more jobs will benefit
the entire province as well. This is good for
families, good for business ˆ and also, I
might add, good for the vital services we all
rely on, such as health care and education.

More exports and more jobs mean more
money for this government to continue
strengthening these vital services. I wish
Premier Christy Clark and the hundreds of
delegates on this jobs and trade mission the
very best as they work to increase our
exports to Asia and create jobs here at
home.

Show will be held May 26th & 27th in the

I am often asked what is independent living?
The short answer is that we are giving our
seniors the opportunity to live in their own
space but not have to worry about the day to
day mundane tasks – cooking meals,
washing linens, lawn care, etc. The tenants
pay one set amount and their basic needs
are taken care of plus they get some extra
bonuses.

The building hosts a plethora of activity
rooms for every interest including its own
theatre, a fully equipped billiards room, a
library, a computer room, an exercise room
and even a craft room if you are so inclined.
Not to mention the huge amenity room off
the main dining room where you can join in
on an abundance of group activities that the
tenants will help determine – maybe it will be
line dancing, Tai Chi or Yoga who knows

In every city there is one club that
distinguishes itself from the rest – one club
where the facilities, service and tradition
combine to offer an unparallel membership
experience. In Richmond, it is the Steveston
Unit 284 of the Army, Navy & Air Force
Veterans in Canada Association.
Established in 1917, ANAF is one of
Canada’s most distinguished private clubs
with a reputation for assisting veterans in
need and for community support. Dynamic
and constantly evolving, the Club is as
committed to its traditions as it is to forward
progress, and embodies the phrase
“honouring traditions while embracing
tomorrow” in all that it undertakes. The
Steveston ANAF began its journey in 1946
when 30 local veterans obtained a charter to
open up a veterans club in Steveston. From
their humble beginnings to their present day
successes, the ANAF has been an integral
part of Steveston for the past 65 years.
Although the primary focus of the ANAF Club
is to support Veteran’s and their dependents,
we are not a group to only support part of the
community. ANAF 284 has helped to
sponsor and fundraise for many local groups
over the years, including children's sports
teams, the B.C. Cancer Society, the Red
Cross, Boy Scouts and Girl Guides, cadets,
Terry Fox fund, Richmond General Hospital,
The Food Bank, The Salvation Army and
many, many more groups in Steveston and
beyond. Total donations in our 65 years
amounts to in excess of $3,500,000.00.

The Steveston ANAF Club is an excellent
place to share with friends, to meet new
people, and to be a Member. Military service
is not a prerequisite to join – all are
Welcome!
The Club holds a variety of social events for
its members on an ongoing basis.
Highlighting the Club’s calendar are the
weekly meat draws on Friday and Saturday,
the free Bingo on Thursday’s with a $500
jackpot to be won. The 55+ Seniors
participate in fun snooker weekly, with
competitive snooker every other week during
the winter months. During the summer
months these Seniors’ also play Golf at a
local Executive style course. A large TV for
sporting events, free giveaways during
sporting events all combined with the good
fellowship and camaraderie of a superb club.

The Heroes Fund for Animal Protection
supports emergency animal rescue, the
investigation of animal cruelty cases, and
bringing abusers to justice.
The Heroes Fund for Animal Protection
supports the many heroes connected to our
organization. Our Cruelty Investigations
Department (CID) works under the authority
of the provincial Prevention of Cruelty to
Animals Act to respond to the thousands of
complaints of animal cruelty and neglect the
BC SPCA receives each year. Our Special
Provincial Constables work in communities
across the province and when needed, seize
and rescue animals from neglectful and
abusive conditions such as puppy and kitten
mills, animal fighting rings and hoarding. In
many cases, animals are found dehydrated,
starving, without shelter and in certain cases,
they are found suffering from wounds that
have been intentionally inflicted.
Supporting the Heroes Fund helps support
the numerous resources required for this
physically and emotionally demanding work.

Hello! We Are Looking for our Forever
Homes-- Can you help us? Fay and Sydney
are our 2 youngest puppies. And although
they are not siblings, they sure do enjoy
each other's company. Fay is a cute little Chi
mix who is 4 months old and weighs 7lb. Her
mommy was a Jack Russel or Rat Terrier,
but the daddy was most likely a Chihuahua,
because Fay looks just like a Chi, just bigger
than most. Fay has a very sweet and calm
temperament, and is very affectionate once
she gets to know the person. She is usually
very quiet and non-demanding, but will bark
to join in the chorus with the other dogs in
her foster home.Fay loves to play with other
doggies and would also probably be

good with kids because she’s very gentle (as
long as the kids are gentle with her!). She a
sturdier version of the Chi breed, which
would make her a great family pet. Fay is
already spayed and fully vaccinated. Her
adoption fee is $450. Sydney is an 11 week
old (born July 22), 4lb bundle of cuteness.
She is a Yorkie Min Pin mix, since her
mommy is a Yorkie mix, but Sydney looks
very much like a Min Pin. Sydney is a
curious, playful and sometimes mischievous
little tyke. She has lots of energy to play with
other doggies in her foster home. But she
also calms down quickly, especially when
picked up and cuddled. She seems to have a
more submissive temperament. Sydney
really likes being carried around in a comfy
doggy pouch and travels really well in a
crate. She would probably do well being
taken to work once she gets older. Sydney is
already spayed and current on her
vaccinations, but she will need her last set in
a few weeks. Sydney’s adoption fee is
$450.

and problem solving,. It encourages
individual and group cooperation,
compromise and creative thinking. Creative
Dance combines skill development and self
expression. It can be learned at any age
level and enjoyed throughout a lifetime. It
helps in the development of the brain.
Classical ballet is the key witch opens the
door to all other dance forms. Through the
study of ballet, the student develops poise,
balance, grace, strong muscles and
coordination. Ballet enriches children with a
sense of creativity, movement and self
esteem that remains with them throughout
their lives.The classes are specifically
designed for the child’s age.
Quality training in a caring
environment
