Despite pushbacks from neighbouring landowners,

town council supported an epoch-making decision in
approving a development permit that would conceivably result in greater downtown density and new businesses to Strathmores core the first of many future
changes facing residents.
The construction of a 12-unit apartment building at
604 and 606 Lakeside Boulevard is forging full steam
ahead, after the issue was brought back to council with
further details and discussion of parking, increased traffic, variances greater than 25 per cent, and reviving the
downtown area.
After the May 20 regular council meeting, administration received direction to inform more residents of the
proposed development and provide additional time to
allow residents to respond. According to Werner Fischer,
director of planning and development for the town, a
second letter was sent to 33 landowners producing another five letters, four of which were in opposition to
the apartment building.
While some residents expressed concerns of the project not keeping with the tenor of the neighbourhood,
council was challenged to make a decision the first of
its kind - to steer Strathmore forward in a prosperous
direction.
I think we need to increase the town density to keep
it viable, and while I understand that that can be a challenge for people in the community, I have seen it work
in my own neighbourhood, said Councillor Denise Peterson, whos lived in downtown Strathmore for three
decades.
[We] watched the decimation of the downtown over
the years as it moved farther and farther east for us
that was far more disturbing than having density come
into our neighbourhood. As density has come in over
the last decades, weve also seen accompanying development. Weve seen incremental improvements.
Councillor Peterson added that a larger downtown
population will increase chances of attracting amenities
and grocery stores back into the area and contribute to
a more desirable area.
The proposed four-storey apartment building will provide 13 off-street parking stalls, stand 13.25 meters tall
at its highest point, and is supported by the Downtown
Overlay District. According to the Land Use bylaw, the
development meets the 12 parking-stall requirement
and remains under the 14-meter height allowance as set
out in the R3 District, which the lots were rezoned as
in 1995.
Seeing that increased residents is the only way to
save downtown and that retail will typically follow this,
I think the struggles that were facing is that this is the
first of its kind in this area, said Councillor Pat Fule,
who attended a Downtown Revitalization conference.

Community fights back against cancer

MIRIAM OSTERMANN

Last years absence of the Relay for Life
prompted unification within the Strathmore community, which sent a clear
message over the weekend - the void is
no longer acceptable.
As funds already exceeded expectations with a whopping $21,000 before
the event even kicked off on Saturday,
42 participants braced the cold and rainy
weather while embarking on a six-hour
relay around Kinsmen Park.
After many contributions from local
businesses, whether financially or in
kind, the enthusiasm and determination
eliminated any uncertainty about the
events future within the Town of Strathmore.
So to see it grow so quickly in the
last two weeks gives me so much positivity for next year, and I think we laid
the ground work to make an amazing
event next year, said Siobhan Doherty,
revenue fund development coordinator
with the Canadian Cancer Society.
The thought of Strathmore Relay for
Life being cancelled again, thats not
even a possibility in my mind. My concept of this right now is cancer never
stops. It doesnt matter the weather,
doesnt matter the time, it doesnt matter your age. So were not going to stop.
This is uncomfortable, its rainy, its wet,
but we can make a difference in cancer.
However, the initiative to bring the
event back to Strathmore began long before last weekend. Over the last couple
months, the staff at the Strathmore Value Drug Mart drummed up interest and
canvassed the streets selling over 150
luminaries for their campaign, Light up
the Park. The team also received donations from Strathmore businesses total-
ling $1,000 and took the title for the top

fundraising team with their donation of
nearly $8,400.
Legends Sports Bar was also among
those contributors who were instrumental in reviving the cause, by donating
their space and a percentage of bar sales
for several fundraising initiatives.
When they approached us we were
more than happy to help them out,
and its always a lot easier when it hits
home, said Logan Cox, co-owner of the
establishment, who had a friend and
grandfather battling the disease. If there
is anything we can do to help, we are
more than happy to. Especially when its
local and in the community.
In an effort to attract more community members and focus on family, the
event was open to the public for the first
time in Strathmore. Recent changes also
allowed for the relay to be reduced to
six hours, rather than go throughout the
night, and be held during the day. Residents were also exposed to food trucks,
entertainment, and even a dunk-tank,
while the day finished off with the lighting of luminaries in memory of loved
ones.
Faced with becoming another statistic on four occasions, Dale Stephenson,
cancer survivor, not only participated in
the relay, but shared his story with the
crowd. Having been diagnosed with cancer for the first time 34 years ago at the
age of 16, Stephenson battled the disease
four times and received two bone marrow transplants. With a portion of his life
spent in hospitals, he is no stranger to
the costs associated with the diagnosis
and understands the value of keeping
the relay alive within the community.
The wheels start turning and spinning
and your mind goes in 42,000 different
directions, Stephenson said when he
Perfect for Fathers Day
found out he had cancer the first time.

Its nice to see it come back to Strathmore. Its not something that needs to
go away, and its all about helping the
communities and people that you dont
know. Your story will ring volumes in
their ears. Maybe now, maybe not, or
maybe in a year.
Aware of the communitys contributions in the past, Robin Navin, who
Doherty said played a crucial part in
bringing the event to life, felt confident
in advising the Canadian Cancer Society that a goal of $20,000 is reasonable.
Navin, who previously raised $7,000 for
the Airdrie Relay for Life, took on a more
active role in brining the relay back to
Kinsmen Park. After her brotherin-law,
Peter Navin, a professional snowboarder and sponsored skateboarder, lost
his 10-year battle with brain cancer in
late 2013, Navin struggled to explain to
her young children their uncles fate. In
turn, the kids were eager to participate
in ways to help prevent other families
from losing their uncles. While the process proved exhausting, in part due to
a lack of volunteers, Navin was thrilled
about the participant turnout and donation results.
My goal is that one day no one has
to tell their kids what dying of cancer
is, because that was hard, Navin said.
Strathmore has a lot to give and its a
great community. Events like this, like
Canada Day, have huge turnouts. I think
we can make the Relay for Life like that
too, where the whole town comes out
to have a good time and give back to a
horrible disease.
The Relay for Life in Strathmore raised
$24,136 that will go back into services
provided to cancer patients, such as providing gas for the volunteer transportation services.

Q: Where can I scatter cremated remains?

A: In Alberta, as with most of Canada, there are
no actual laws pertaining to the scattering of

cremated remains. However, there are some
guidelines that should be followed. In all
cases, permission should be obtained prior
to scattering. Scattering is permitted on any
Crown land, including in water. National parks
prohibit the scattering of cremated remains
in water, although you may cast them to the
wind without obtaining permission. You may
also scatter cremated remains in most municipal
parks and cemeteries but only with permission
from the municipality. When scattering
cremated remains on private property, it is
important to obtain permission from the owner
of the land prior to the scattering. In any
case, when scattering cremated remains, it is
recommended that the scattering is done with
discretion.

DISC GOLF
Strathmore Assembly of Youth, a group of engaged teens, has
undertaken the task of designing and building a championship
disc golf course in the community of Strathmore, AB. Located
30 minutes east of Calgary on the Trans Canada Highway,
our course is scheduled to open on Canada Day with a
competitive tournament for experienced players, followed by
lessons for newcomers to the sport.
Our course is currently being constructed. Tee pads have
been poured, and basket anchors and signposts have been
placed. We have 15 baskets installed, so you can now play
most of the course!!
The remaining 3 baskets (holes 3, 7, and 11) and the signs at
each tee will be up soon, too!
The next regular

Out Of Bounds
If any area of O.B. is visible between the disc and O.B.
line, then the disc is considered O.B. A throw that lands
out of bounds, must be played from a point 3 feet in bounds
from where the disc went out of bounds. Permanent water
hazards, backyards, pathways, and public roads are always
out of bounds.

CATS AT LARGE
Objective of the Game

Disc Golf is played like traditional golf, but with flying discs
instead of balls and clubs. One point (stroke) is counted each
time the disc is thrown and when a penalty is incurred. The
goal is to play each hole in the fewest strokes possible. The
player with the lowest total strokes of the entire course wins.

Decision aimed to revitalize downtown

Continued from Page 1

I agree that there are going to be
problems at some point we have to
increase density beyond what weve
been doing. I understand that people
are upset and there is some worry
about this, but this is the first of other
things that are coming, and its one of
those things that may have to be done.
In addition to circulating further correspondence to residents, town council also requested information regarding the condition, cost, and options
of the back alley parallel to Lakeside
Boulevard.
With a relatively low cost of $16,000
to $20,000 for improving the northsouth portion of the lane situated behind the site, and $34,000 to $40,000
for upgrades along the entire block
through the east-west portion, the developer agreed to pay nearly double
his share for upgrading the townowned road. This would include the
portion of the lane along properties
602, 604, and 606.
However, it was the issue of parking that raised red flags for Councillor Brad Walls. With a requirement of
only one parking stall per dwelling,
one visitor off-street parking stall, and
some on-street parking, Walls was unable to justify approving the development permit when he reasoned many
households require both members to

be working and driving a vehicle.
I will not be supporting this because I do not believe that one parking stall is adequate for a dwelling,
even though the bylaw states that,
he said. I look at my little complex,
theres four houses there, and theres
12 vehicles. To me one parking stall is
simply not sufficient even with street
parking.
Although Councillor Walls voted in
opposition of the motion to approve
the development with conditions as
were outlined in the draft development permit, the rest of council voted
for the motion. The permit sought leniency for setbacks to the front yard,
side property lines, site width and
area, and allowable density.
According to Fischer, such decisions
are necessary to ensure downtown
Strathmore will be viable once again.
I think we have very clear direction from the Municipal Development
Plan that we want to encourage and
promote re-development in the downtown, said Fischer. Everything tends
to be a bit of a compromise and sometimes you never satisfy anybody in the
process of doing it.
The matter is subject to appeal, and
those wishing to appeal can submit
their reasons to the Subdivision and
Development Appeal Board.

Are you a mosquito-attractor? You are if you have

type O blood or if youre a beer-drinker. If you fit
into these categories, you will be more attractive to
bees. Repellants containing DEET are still the best
mosquito repellants. And by the way, eating lots of
garlic and taking extra vitamin B supplements wont
help.
Many people want to get rid of excess belly fat. We
know that kind of fat is bad for our health. One of the
first things to look at when considering this problem
is your alcohol intake. Alcohol seems to cause belly
fat more than other foods because the liver is working
hard to metabolize the alcohol and has less energy to
burn off the fat which can result in weight gain.
We often hear about the high cost of medications
here and around the world. Perhaps the worlds
most expensive drug is eculizumab which would cost
$500,000 per year to use. It is used to treat a very
rare blood disorder called atypical hemolytic uremic
syndrome. Sort of adds perspective to drug costs.
Here is a list of birth control methods and their

diaphragm, cervical cap and birth control sponge: 8489%. In contrast, if no birth control is practiced, the
efficacy is 15%.
If you need more information about the various birth

Strathmore hopeful of carnival return

JUSTIN SEWARD
Times Reporter

West Coast Amusement
rolled onto the Strathmore
& District Agricultural Societys grounds and despite
the cool temperatures, there
were lots of smiles from lots
of young kids that were enjoying rides and the midway
food.
Buzz Kimble, a representative with West Coast
Amusement, thought it is a
tough sell in smaller towns
as these carnivals are meant
for the bigger centres, but
liked the space that the
Strathmore had to offer.
You see how much it is
to set-up a big carnival, otherwise wed have to go to a
smaller mall, said Kimble.
We usually go for the big
towns because we have
more people and everything
in small towns you dont
get that much.
Kimble added that Strathmore had a great atmosphere surrounding the
event.
Its great, youve got the
park, the baseball game, everything, he said.
Local attendee Tammy
Heinzlmeir would like to
see this entertainment come

around to Strathmore more
often, as she thinks its a
great way to promote the
town and the future of bigger events in the area.
It doesnt happen very
often, its a big deal, she
said.
Heinzlmeir felt that this
carnival would be better on
a weekend for a crowd and
it took some convincing for
her kids to go on the rides.
They had to be broken in
but theyre fun, said Heinzlmeir.
Her son, Jacob, just finished his fifth time on the
Spring Ride where he felt
scared but really enjoyed it
at the same time.
Its exciting, I (also) like
the bumper cars because
you get to bump into people, said Jacob.
He added that he would
like to see the carnival come
back more often because
then he can do all the rides
he wants.
Strathmore & District
Agricultural Society General Manager Herb McLean
thinks the carnivals appearance in town bodes well for
the possibility of it coming
to the Strathmore Stampede
in the very near future.

We know there is an appetite for
carnivals in town, said McLean. We
know that from exit interviews from
the Stampede and Heritage Days from
a year ago.
He emphasized that this was more of
a testing period to give it a try before
any future commitments are made.
Were unable to attract one still
for the Stampede and Heritage Days,
said McLean. We wanted to have the
outlet, we wanted to give it a try. We
wanted to hopefully have one the
park. Hes (WCA manager) happy
with the set-up, its a pilot if you will
and an experiment.
There is nothing but positivity that
McLean sees with the carnival and he
hopes it comes back twice a year.
There were lots of kids, thats the
great thing about it, no line-ups and
its comfortable, said McLean. Youre
not standing for 20 minutes waiting
for a ride.

Bow Valley College hosted a career expo
with hopes of promoting education and career paths in Strathmore and surrounding region.
The event, held on June 9 at the Civic Centre, was aimed towards high school students,
adult learners and those seeking new opportunities. Attendees were able to talk with
local employers, local service providers and
representatives from places such as McBride
Career Group, Community Futures, the Strathmore Chamber of Commerce and Strathmore
Immigrant Services.
Bow Valley is about access to education,
and we make them work ready, said Corinne
Finnie the director of Regional Stewardship
at the college.
Post-secondary is important in rural communities as it leads to economic and social
well-being.
Currently the college offers a number of
programs and in the fall will be offering exciting new programs in continuing education.
Lilian Au is the administrative assistant for
the Strathmore and Chestermere area. She
helped to organize the event in order to bring
these education and employment opportunities to the community. At the campus she
helps the students on their path to employment.
I help see which program is the best fit
for the person and make sure they have the
requirements they need, said Au.
Registration is now open for the fall semester.

Prize money offsets financial load to preserve history

MIRIAM OSTERMANN

When the Western District Historical Society were required to make an
out-of-the-blue abrupt decision in purchasing and therefore preserving the 105-year-old Strathmore Anglican
Church, the organization faced thousands of dollars to move the existing
structure to a temporary location and
off its current land. With fortuitous timing, the society was able to attract the
attention of three judges at the second
annual Lets Make a Pitch event that
awarded the society the prize money
of $5,000. Having been quoted moving
costs of $10,000 along with additional $2,000 per beam to go underneath
the structure, cost of insurance at the
new location, and the moving of power lines, the winnings will help offset
some of the societys financial load.
We were given the offer of purchasing the church or not and we had to
make a fairly quick decision, because it
has to be moved very soon, said Lynne
Fair, member of the Western District
Historical Society.
Preserving it is important, and the
Anglican Church people are very happy
that its not leaving town. If we hadnt
taken it there was a buyer all ready to
take it and it wouldve been gone. But
the major cost is in the moving.
The grass-roots committee, which received its society status in January, has
met for the past two years, worked on
strategic-planning, and sought advice
from experts at the Glenbow Museum
in Calgary. By acquiring the Anglican
Church, the society hopes to incorporate the structure into their plans of
establishing a museum, and possibly
accommodate an even bigger vision of
a Strathmore Historic Park.
According to Fair the project will
focus on the rich heritage of the CPR
Demonstration and Supply Farm and
the Irrigation District that played key
roles in Strathmores history from 1908
to 1943. Although currently still in a

planning phase, the society is aware
their vision may take years to come to
fruition and will require ongoing fundraising.
The planning of the museum is a
very long-range project this doesnt
happen overnight, Fair added. If we
dont spend a lot of time doing all of
our visioning, needs assessments, planning, and paperwork before anything
gets off the ground, we may not be as
successful as we would hope.
Ticking off all of the criteria for this
years Dragons Den-inspired Lets
Make a Pitch event, the project aims
to promote community pride, engage
community involvement, strengthening
the quality of life, and inspire change.
The competition is the brainchild
of Chief Administrative Officer for the
Town of Strathmore Dwight Stanford,
who was inspired when he participated in a similar event at the Economic
Developers Conference last year. Winning $500 for his teams idea, Stanford
reinvested the funds which grew to
$10,000 into the project that most impressed the judges for beautifying the
town.
Mimicking the same style, Jerry Lemmon with Talisman Energy, William G.
Turnbull president of W.G. Turnbull &
Associates, and Kenneth Struss with
Cancorp Property Group deliberated
five pitches, which included little free
libraries, a graffiti initiative, eats of
Strathmore, and park enhancement.
The judges took it very seriously,
said Stanford. The Western District
Historical Society was neat, because
the group dressed the part. Theyve
got a group thats enthused about it.
They have some members with good
history of this area, and hopefully in
the future they can get set up and get
a facility.
While Stanford was pleased with the
turnout and Travelodges donation of
their facility and refreshments, plans
for next year may be shifted towards
the end of the year. With programfilled summer months, Stanford expects moving the event to the fall will
provide non-profit organizations with
more time to prepare and possibly increase participation.

Mini-Budget deserves proper scrutiny

DEREK FILDEBRANDT
Wildrose MLA for Strathmore-Brooks

Albertas government is running on autopilot right now,
without any budgetary framework in place. In fact, the provinces finances are still being run based on Alison Redfords
budget from March of 2014, the last budget actually passed
by the legislature.
While former premier Jim Prentice introduced a budget
before calling an election, it was never actually debated or
passed by the legislature. That means that the government

has no constitutional authority to spend money

much longer.
As such, the NDP needs to seek authority to
keep spending until it can piece proper budget
together. They will do that in the form of an interim supply bill.
Normally, these bills are for sums of money
ranging from a few hundred thousand dollars to
a few million dollars. It is extraordinarily rare
if not entirely unprecedented to use such an
interim measure to spend tens of billions of dollars. It effectively constitutes a mini-budget, and
is likely to add up to between $15 billion and $20
billion.
The Wildrose Opposition will work with the
NDP government to ensure that this mini-budget
is held to a proper level of scrutiny befitting such
a massive sum of money. That is why on June 12
I spoke at the legislature and laid out four points
for the government to do just this.
1) Allow the mini-budget to be fully debated in
the house, with all ministers accounting for new
spending items presented;
2) Commit to returning the legislature after Labour Day and not delay the full budget beyond
September 2015;
3) Provide full information on the true state of
Albertas finances before voting on the bill, including estimates of revenue, spending, the debt,
and deficit; and
4) Do away with the PC funny-money account-
ing tricks to stop hiding billion of spending from

the deficits bottom line.
We would not being doing our job as the official opposition if we simply allowed a spending
bill for $10 billion to $20 billion to pass through
the legislature without proper scrutiny, and without knowing the big-picture impact to the provinces finances.
I thought that these measures were pretty reasonable, and in fact, a new way of doing politics
differently, with the opposition and government
cooperating together despite ideological differences. That is why I surprised to when Premier
Rachel Notley responded why shrugging off our
suggestions and stating that the legislature will
just have to make due with minimal details.
The NDP hasnt yet released the bill for us to
see, but this doesnt bode well for bringing a
sense of fiscal responsibility to the legislature that
has been sorely lacking for a decade.
It is critical that a mini-budget authorizing about
half a years spending contain it some information
to allow for even minimal accountability.
How much money is the government asking for
in Program A? Without spelling that out, whats to
stop bureaucrats from going over budget?
If the government is merely given a blank
cheque to spend as it sees fit without any oversight from the legislature, whats to stop the cabinet from spending money on things that it would
otherwise have no legal authority to spend on?

REMEMBERING OUR ROOTS ~Gordon & Viola (Vi) Hilton

JOHN GODSMAN
Times Contributor
Gordons grandparents Henry and Florence Hilton emigrated from England to the Nightingale
District in 1910, and became part of the English
Colony.
Henry was a tailor in England, but moved to
Canada to become a farmer, so Gordons roots in
agriculture were set. Gordons mothers family, the
Maillous also originated in England, immigrating to
Piapot, Sask. in 1909.
Vis fathers family - the Bartelens immigrated from Holland
in 1908 to the Aakenstad Dutch
Colony, northeast of Strathmore.
They were among the group
who helped build the first Catholic church in Strathmore, in
1910. Unfortunately, it didnt
have a church bell, and when
the elder Mrs. Bartelen was dying, she asked her husband to
purchase a bell in her memory.
Accordingly, a bell was ordered
from France, arriving here in
1926, and was inscribed with
Bartelen family names, as well
as those of the Pope, Bishop and Priest who were
in office at the time. This bell was moved when
a new church replaced the original building, and
was still in use at the time of the demolition of this
church in 2013. Vi and Gordon were able to retrieve the bell. Vis mothers family the Verweires,
immigrated from Belgium to the Finnegan district,
near Gem, in 1913.
Gordon grew up in the Nightingale area, and Vi
in the Cheadle area. They both started school in
one-room country schools, for their elementary
education. Gordon attended Berta Vale, and Vi the
Turner schools. To reach school they had to either
ride a horse (Vi), or walk to and from school. By
the time they were ready to attend high school, the
country schools had closed, and they were bused
to the original Samuel Crowther School in Strathmore.
This was followed by a time at SAIT for Gordon,
and Olds Agricultural College for Vi. They were
married in the Sacred Heart Catholic Church in
Strathmore on Nov. 22, 1955 and the reception fol-
lowing was held in the Strathmore Legion Hall.

They had five children Deborah, Spencer, Lawrence, Carolyn and Sterling who have given them
nine grandchildren and three great-grandchildren.
Lawrence was tragically killed in an accident in
1976, and his school classmates approached town
council to have the park located on Westmount
Drive named the Lawrence Hilton Park in his honour.
Initially, Gordon and Vi lived four miles north of
town, where Gordon farmed with his father Leonard, and brother Ron, for nine
years. In 1964, they ventured
out on their own, purchasing
the Harvey farm in the Crowfoot area. The day they arrived,
it was so windy that some of the
land was blowing, and Gordon
resolved to put an end to this,
and he started the experimentation, now known as continuous
cropping and No Till farming.
As one of the originators, it
was only natural for him to be
elected President of the Alberta No Till Farmers Association
when it was formed in 1978. He
travelled extensively in the 70s
and 80s, looking for new ideas, which he shared
with others.
With his son, Spencer, they developed a slide
show presentation, showing the benefits of conservation farming to farmers across Western Canada.
In 1980, he brought the first No Till drill to Western Canada. Their farm became a demonstration
farm for conservation farming and they hosted
many tour groups from across Canada, the U.S.,
China, Russia, South Africa and Australia. Minimum tillage is now widely practiced by the vast
majority of farmers world wide! Gordon has been
recognized over the years for his innovation and
foresight into soil and water conservation, by being inducted into the Soil Conservation Council of
Canadas Hall of Fame in Ottawa, and also received
its L.B.Thompson Award for Soil Conservation, the
Calgary Stampede Family Farm Award, and was recently inducted into The Alberta Agriculture Hall of
Fame in Edmonton.
Their farm is now being operated by their sons
and wives Spencer/Lynne, Sterling/Lianna, and
grandson Dane/Michelle.
Gordon has been active in many community organizations,
including the Crowfoot Community Club, Ducks Unlimited,
Knights of Columbus, the Lions Club, and the Bow River Water
Quality Task Force, and enjoys Seniors Curling and Shuffleboard.
Vi was a member of The Womens Institute, the Catholic
Womens League (CWL), the Crowfoot Community Club, and
enjoys playing bridge.
For the last 20 years, theyve travelled to Arizona with their
fifth wheel, and have many friends there.
The biggest changes theyve seen are the new technology
used in farming, and said they have watched Strathmore grow
from a small town where they knew nearly everyone, to a
small city where they go to the bank or shopping, and dont
see anyone they know!

Council grants contractor second chance to fix Thomas Drive

MIRIAM OSTERMANN

After the reconstruction of Thomas Drive fell flat on meeting town councils expectations, local officials reluctantly
granted the contractor another shot at rectifying the issues
and completing the project that began in 2013.
Northstar Trucking undertook the reconstruction project
two years ago, which included replacement of water and
sewer lines, installing new storm water infrastructure, and
new road base and surfacing. The contractor removed the
asphalt from Parklane Drive to Brent Boulevard and allowed
two years for the project to settle before top-lifting in 2015.
The two-year requirement allowed for the road to be observed and for issues, such as sinking of the base, to be
recognized the only way to be aware of any issues.
During the two-year period, residents and council became
increasingly frustrated with the roads numerous potholes
and pooling water.
Everybody in the community knows there is something
wrong, said Councillor Steve Grajczyk. I want to reiterate
this, on Brent Boulevard the second lift has never been put
in in places, and it has lasted 20 years now, and its gotten
nowhere near the problems, not even close, to the problems
that this one has.
Last year, council was approached by SNC Lavalin, the
projects engineers, urging the town to move forward with
the top-lift a year ahead of schedule. Yet a higher price demand, a flawed report, and some councillors desire to see
repairs to the roadway before placement of the top-lift, resulted in councils decision to take a risk of further ratepayer complaints, and stick to the original completion date
of 2015.
Then, two weeks ago, despite growing concerns regarding
the contractor and the quality of the project, which had previously been described as a botched job, it was announced
that Northstar Trucking will be carrying out warranty work
this year, and will provide the much anticipated top-lift. The
updates, with costs contained within the existing budget of
$390,000, will consist of digging out and replacing segregated areas, providing a level base of asphalt, and finishing
it off with a top-lift. However, council was also required to
consider approving an additional $20,000 for the inclusion
of Brent Boulevards right-hand turning lane completion.
But without a safety net to fall back on, once the top-lift
is completed and subsequently ends the project with Northstar Trucking, some councillors remained leery about the
request and insisted on greater assurance.

I use Thomas Drive on a daily basis, seven

days a week, and I really hope I dont see the
same potholes in the same places, on Thomas
Drive next spring, said Councillor Rocky Blokland. And if we do, then what?
According to administration once the project
is completed, if problems arise, the only option
would be to prove faulty workmanship or materials. However, council was reassured that SNC
Lavalin will be on site as third-party testers and
collect samples during placement of any warranty
items or construction of top-lift.
While Thomas Drive is experiencing numerous issues, administration had previously said
that two different firms were hired to do analysis
on the state of the roadway and detailed reports
showed that the work had been done according
to industry standards. Earlier this year, council
was informed that some of the pooling could be

attributed to the construction, while others were
presumed to have existed prior to the projects
start date. Staff also said that Thomas Drive experienced underground water conditions at the
time of construction and without the existence of
a top-lift the water soaked down to the base lift.
Although council was presented with the option to change contractors and utilize the Lakeside and 4th Avenue project contractor, staff advised against the change in order to keep the
project and its concerns to one contractor.
In accordance with the $20,000 for the Brent
Boulevard turning lane upgrades, council approved the project budget of a total of $410,000
to complete the entire project with Northstar
Trucking. The project has a completion date prior
to August 1.

Heaven is a class act

MIRIAM OSTERMANN

Its nearly impossible for Heaven
Berhe Sium to make it to her classroom without being stopped by her
peers numerous times in the hallway.
The scenario was almost inconceivable
three years ago for the warm-hearted
and now outspoken international student from Uganda, who in the past
could often be found by herself with
nose in book at the junior high school
library. However, through encouragement from the family she resides with
in Strathmore and several teachers,
Heaven quickly became involved in her
school and within the community. Due
to her unwavering support and dedication for the betterment of those around
her, Heavens personality and attitude
has earned her respect form her fellow classmates and distinguished the
recent graduate from the class of 2015
making her the perfect candidate for
this years Strathmore Times Class Act
award.
It is nice to have someone say oh
thank you for doing this even though
you do it from the goodness of your
heart, and that someone actually appreciates what I do, said Heaven. I just
love helping people because it makes
me feel good. If you can help, why
not right? Im more open to say what I
want, and what I want change in.
Heaven became a member of the
Strathmore community three-and-a-half
years ago, when her family sent her to
Canada to graduate with an education
that carried more weight around the
world an opportunity that is accompanied by a $20,000-a-year price-tag. As
her father works for the United Nations
and wanted to ensure a great future for
his children, Heavens older brother
and younger sister are also attending
school and university in Strathmore
and Calgary, while three more siblings
are back in Africa.

Since moving to Alberta, Heaven has
embraced her new community and strategically kept her schedule jam-packed.
Not only does she stand out in her academics, but volunteers with the Strathmore Hospital and Sagewood Care Centre, while finding time to attend nearly
every sports game, drama production,
and school event usually cheering the
loudest.
I may seem like the social butterfly,
but I dont go to parties and I always
have a timetable, said Heaven. I always
have a specific time to do something.
I dont want my education to struggle
because of that. That is the main reason Im here; for education. But education shouldnt take up all my life and
if I studied all the time Id probably go
crazy. And Im really loud at sports but
thats my way of venting.
Yet her commitment doesnt end
there. Heaven tutors other students,
works in the school cafeteria, serves
as a scorekeeper at basketball and soccer games, helps to fundraise money
for school initiatives, and is part of the
graduation committee.
Every year, the award singles out an
individual who showed extraordinary
accomplishments in one or more areas outside of their education, while
remaining in good academic standing.
Therefore, the persons character and
personality distinguish them in their
community and their school. When
Heavens paperwork came before the
committee, the decision was a no-brainer.
Its true, it is the perfect award for
Heaven to win, she represents the best
of that class, said Strathmore High
School Associate Principal Kyle Larson,
who was also on the committee.
Shes so incredibly supportive of
all of the events at the school, and I
havent seen many kids that come to
more basketball games, or to more of

With the help of the awards $500

Bachelor Degree in Sciences and will
then continue on to the University of
Alberta to study dentistry. Despite normally travelling home to Uganda for
the summer, Heaven will spend this

Plus Summer Games, spend time with
her friends, and will experience Strathmores Heritage Days for the first time.

Summer games turn green

MIRIAM OSTERMANN

Hard work and zeal are on the rise among members of
the Sustainability Committee that seeks to set a precedent
in providing the first ever green Alberta 55 Plus Summer
Games in Strathmore.
Eight committee members have been actively pursuing
eco-friendly initiatives to mimic efforts taken by the youth
games held in Banff. And while the focus is primarily centered on the anticipated summer games, Strathmore may find
the committee to become a permanent entity for sustainability.
Its sad to say, but sustainability is kind of a new concept
for our town, said Bob Sobol, director of the Alberta 55 Plus
Summer Games.
Interestingly enough, that interest has really grown and I
think our community is going to benefit.
In attempting to make the games the greenest one yet,
the committee has focused on sustainability, education and
awareness, and creating a legacy. In relation to the games,
residents can expect reusable water bottles, recycle bins,
water dispensing stations, electric vehicles, pedi cabs, pulverized glass for the horseshoe pits, biodegradable garbage
bags, and plant-based plates utensils, cups and glasses.
Since the games announcement last year, H&H Huxted
began collecting flower containers to be upcycled and be
used for the games. By using perennial plants, the committee hopes it will further establish a legacy for years to come.
Its been a great committee to work with, and I think that
were going to keep this together and grow from here, have
a sustainability committee, and Huxted wants to be a part of
that, said Colin Huxted, owner of H&H Huxted Enterprises.
It would be nice if Strathmore could be ahead. I believe,
Calgary, in 2018, is going to be where they no longer accept
organic material. Vancouver has already done that.
After being approached by Sobol, Huxted didnt hesitate
to jump on board, and will be donating porta potties, hand
washers, all the recycling, crush the glass into sand for the
horseshoe pits, and compost. Having recently met with Alberta Environment, the site should hopefully become a Class
1 composting site next week.
We had a few meetings where we tried to decide on projects that we could tackle, and tackle successfully and basically most of this is centered around education, Sobol added.
We just want to show people that sustainability does not
mean you dont use paper. Theres no finite definition to this.
Its just using a little bit of common sense.
The Alberta 55 Plus Summer games will be held in Strathmore from July 16 to 19, and volunteers are still needed.

Charity lamb supports Cheadle

Lions hospice project
MIRIAM OSTERMANN

The Cheadle Lions Clubs latest million-dollar initiative recently received
a little financial support with the help
of a little lamb with a great value. The
Cheadle 4-H Club auctioned off the
charity lamb three times; each time it
was donated back to the cause of funding a hospice project in
Wheatland County.
Although
Heather
Hebbes and her family have been involved
in raising charity lambs
where donations went
towards the childrens
hospital, she is aware of
the growing need for a
hospice in the area.
Its good for the kids
to give back, Hebbes said. I think a
hospice is in great need here, because
we only have one palliative care bed at
our hospital, and we serve such a large
area. Itll be nice for families to have
someone closer by, than to have to travel to Calgary. Its a good thing to do.
Hebbess two children, Kylee and
Landon, raised Annie who was initially bought by the Eagle Lake Nurseries for $13.50/lb. The animals was then
donated back, and auctioned off again
for $11.50/lb to Peak Contracting in
Calgary. When the lamb was returned
again, Tri West Agro in Rosebud acquired the animal for $9/lb.
Weighing in at 98 lbs, an additional
$3,200 was donated to the Cheadle Lions Clubs hospice project, raising the
total to over $65,000.
Without making it seem like a small

amount, because its not, the real benefit to us was getting the word out to a
lot of people in our community and the
county, said Cheadle Lions Club member Sonny Warrack. It was out in a
public place, and that was huge for us.
But the money is excellent. Its going to
cost us a lot to build this place. Were
going to need some big-time partners.
Our club, we want to
initiate this project and
were going to follow
through on it, so were
going to need a lot of
financial help, thats for
sure.
The Cheadle Lions
Club recently held their
first-of-its-kind Feed a
Steer competitions that
raised over $60,000.
While Wheatland County currently is
not in possession of a hospice facility,
such an establishment would allow for
a life-affirming alternative to hospitalization. The facility would be of benefit
to anyone suffering from cancer, diseases including advanced heart, respiratory, and kidney disease as well as
ALS, MS, and Alzheimers.
Acknowledging the $500,000 the
community raised for the Food Grain
project, Warrack has no doubt the community will band together and raise the
required funds.
While the project will require time,
research, and money, the club was
thrilled and proud that 4-H Club members are getting involved in supporting
the project. Annie was auctioned off on
June 4.

Official opposition faces

opposition from government
MIRIAM OSTERMANN

While the nearly one-month-old NDP
government assured the opposition
that a provincial sales tax will not be
on the agenda, Wildrose MLAs were
disheartened, however, by the governments paucity of information regarding the mulit-million dollar mini-budget and the projected full budget.
The $18 billion NDP interim budget, introduced as an interim supply
bill, will separate the newly elected
government from the 2014 Redford
budget framework that the province
is currently operating under. However,
Strathmore-Brooks MLA and Wildrose
Shadow Minister Derek Fildebrandts
optimism is quickly deflating after
meeting with the finance minister earlier this week.
Were not very optimistic that the
government will work very cooperatively with us on the issue, and we
put forward some recommendations
that I believe are very reasonable and
moderate that should be able to reach
across ideological divides and focus on
accountability, said Fildebrandt. They
have made it clear that they are not
accepting most of these recommendations, that the mini-budget will not
contain in it particularly much detail,
and that we cannot expect a full budget until nearly the winter. They will
continue to use the PCs funny money
accounting to allow them to continue
borrowing billions of dollars a year
without accounting for it.
The Wildrose recommendations included allowing the mini-budget to be
fully debated in the house, a commitment from the government to not delay
the full budget past this September, for
full information to be released on the
state of Albertas finances before voting
on the supply bill, and transparency in
accounting so all capital expenditures
are included.
During the governments first question period containing a focus on the
budget on June 16 the official opposition member had a chance to address
his concerns publicly and question the
NDPs intentions regarding the interim
mini-budget, which he says makes up
50 per cent of the governments operating costs.
Joe Ceci, minister of finance, in
turn referred back to the new budget
that will be passed some time in the
fall adding that Fildebrandt and other
members will then have the time to debate the actual budget in full.
Dont worry, we are going to have a
very detailed discussion about the budget and let me just say that that budget
will be based on the principles that this
government laid out to the people of
Alberta in the last election, said Premier Rachel Notley at the legislature.
Thats what the government will include. It will reflect those opinions, reflect those principles, and reflect what
the people of this province voted for.
When questioned about committing
to a Sept. 7 deadline for introducing a
new budget, Notley opposed the date,
but said the budget would be revealed
shortly after. She also opposed the
Keystone Pipeline, and said the government is evaluating the PC books,
which will determine whether a comprehensive investigation is necessary.
We certainly recognize that the premier isnt able to table a budget just yet
and thats sort of understandable, but
it would be helpful for Alberta businesses and Alberta families to actually
know what direction the province is
going and certainly to know what the
financial plan is for the years ahead,
said Wildrose Party leader Brian Jean
during question period. We all know
the premier isnt planning on any cuts,
so really the only budget questions are,
which taxes are going to go up and
how much new debt Albertans are going to have to pay off in the future.
While emphasis was heavily placed
on the provincial budget during the
June 16 question period, Fildebrandt
was more concerned about the supply bill, as the year will be nearly over
when the budget would receive approval. Fildebrandt specifically took
issue with the lack of information surrounding the $18 billlion mini-budget
and felt ratepayers deserved at least 50
per cent of the details involved. Furthermore, the lack of cooperation hes
received thus far has raised red flags.
Its very concerning and frankly
quite disappointing, because were trying to do opposition differently, he
said.
We are trying to be helpful and to
propose constructive solutions rather
than merely opposing everything. Its
discouraging that at least thus far that
they have not been particularly open
to suggestions outside of their party.
Its still early, but if the NDP are consistently closed to constructive advice
then we have to become more vocal.

Solar powered toilet hopes to

flush away high carbon future
ANDREA ROBERTS
Times Contributor

Worthington Construction has created two prototype solar toilets that will
be part of creating a low-carbon future,
as the toilets will soon go into testing.
The toilet was originally built to be
part of the companys low-carbon industrial facility in Standard.
We talked for a few years about
developing a place with minimum impact, said Mike Worthington, engineer
and owner of Worthington Construction.
We built a shop and it is powered
by solar energy. We needed a toilet. We
got looking into it and there is really no
product like it.
So they made their own.
The semi-portable toilet has all the
luxuries of an electrically powered toilet. It has lights, heat and water while
rainwater is collected and filtered for
hand washing. It uses solar PV panels
to convert the solar energy into electricity, and solar evacuated tubes. Waste
material from the toilet is treated internally in the unit.
While the toilet was only going to be
for the shop Tom Jackman, president
and CEO of Simple Solar, who helped
with the unit, pointed out there may
be a market for the toilet. Jackman got
Worthington in touch with SAIT to help
with marketing research. This helped to
get the ball rolling.
The company has been working
closely with SAIT to plan for the toilet
and its eventual introduction into society. Other than the marketing study the
students helped to develop a business
plan, as well as an instrument to help
with testing.
As the two prototype toilets enter
their testing phase data will be collected and analyzed by the SAIT students.
The first prototype is fitted with sensors
that will measure different information
Getting the cash

you need just got
more convenient.
The solar toilet built by Worthington Constructions will soon go into testing to see how well
it runs in Albertas winters and to receive public feedback. The public is invited to come view
the unit on June 25 at the Standard Community
movie night.
Photos Courtesy of Mike Worthington
for the analysis and feedback will voluntarily be given from users and the
toilets operators.
One toilet is an industrial model that
will be used in the oil and gas or construction industries. This one will probably go to a construction site in Calgary and they will see how it fares in a
tougher environment. The other will be
for commercial use and will most likely
go to a golf course in Edmonton. The
field test will see how people enjoy using the toilet and how it fares in the
middle of winter in Alberta.
Worthington has many hopes for the
toilet and its place in helping to create a
low-carbon future. Along with creating
a toilet that runs on alternative energy,
Worthington hopes that it will help the
community of Standard. They will eventually offer work terms for SAIT students as well as providing work experience to students from Standard.
So what we are looking at doing is
how to grow our corporation without
increasing our environmental footprint.
How do we create a corporation that
can prosper in a low-carbon economy?
The public is invited to come view
the unit on June 25 at Standard community movie night.

Immigrant services now offered in Strathmore

JUSTIN SEWARD
Times Reporter

Foothills Immigration Community Services, in partnership
with the Calgary Catholic Immigration Society, has recently
expanded their services to Strathmore.
They are a non-profit, volunteer-based organization that
offers services which include supporting newcomers who
need integration support and comprehensive settlements.
With a high demand for the services, in places

like Chestermere, Okotoks, Cochrane, High River,
and Brooks, the organization felt it was time to
see what could be done in Strathmore.
We have been providing outreach services for
two or three years and feel there may be a greater
need, said Nancy Risdon, Foothills Immigration
Settlement Coordinator who specializes in the
Strathmore Division.
We also aim to be more involved in the community of Strathmore to promote our services to
the area.
Some of the services offered include Cultural
Diversity Workshops and Community Organizations which are available for those that want to
learn about what it is like working with people
from different cultures.

The target population is permanent residents
to Canada, however we also work with refugees
and temporary foreign workers to connect them
to community resources as needed, said Risdon.
These workshops can be tailored to suit the
request of the organizations.
The society is still looking for more people to
help build up Strathmores volunteer base.
The Strathmore division will only be appointment based. To book one you can reach them at
(403)-938-4699 or fcisokotoks@ccis-calgary.ab.ca.
The meetings will take place at the McBride Career Group here in Strathmore at 227 3rd Avenue
on Wednesdays, depending on when appointments are scheduled.

This show celebrates a personal victory.

The arts were her escape.

Playing trumpet, and then trying a community theatre and being in performances, she said, really started to bring me
back to life in a different way. It started to
heal my heart.
She enrolled in RSA, planning to stay
a year but wanted to quit after her first
week. After the first semester, she drove
home for Christmas, and I looked at myself in the rear-view mirror of my car and
my eyes were all puffy and I was gaunt
and I was just so tired, but there was this
sparkle in my eyes. She told herself, You

did it! You did it!

With new purpose, she finished the year
and began to consider the future, where
shed live and what shed do.
Those are things that I never allowed
myself to think ahead to before, she said.
Four years later, shes still there, and
will soon graduate as a Fellow of Rosebud
School of the Arts.
Ive accomplished things I never thought
I could do, she said. My whole time here
Ive struggled really, really significantly
with depression and anxiety but Ive
been able to continue through it, whereas
before, it would take me out at the knees.
I needed to share something about mental
illness. For her Final Project, she couldnt
find the right script - so she had to write it.
Deciding to do this project with my own
story was a huge awareness and a start to
acceptance, she said. It was also scary. She
tried to quit, but director Deanne Bertsch
and co-creator Conrad Belau wouldnt let
her go.
They were too invested in me and I love
them for that, she said.
If I was a Fairy Tale Princess, I Think Id
Be Sleeping Beauty is about Poppy, who
represents my heart and my imagination
and my inner child, whos full of life, full
of light, Glenn said. A shadow character
named Doubt covers the smile on (Poppys) heart.
Poppy is entertaining and funny without trying, Glenn said. Its like getting a
glimpse into watching a child play with
her imagination in her room by herself.
As she rehearses, Glenn celebrates ongoing healing.
The more that I start to name these
things and the more that I accept them into
my life the more compassion I have for
myself, she said. Weve all had demons in
the dark.
She hopes well see ourselves in Poppys
story, and that it moves us toward acceptance of mental health issues.
If I can touch one person and have
them say, Oh, if she can talk about it, I can
too, then it will be worth it, she said.

Investigation ongoing into fatal collision

MIRIAM OSTERMANN

A multi-vehicle collision resulted in
the death of a teenager and left others
in hospital last week.
Emergency services, including Strathmore RCMP and STARS, attended to the
crash at the intersection of HWY 791
and HWY 1 on June 9. The incident occurred at approximately 4 p.m. after
a northbound vehicle was struck by
an eastbound vehicle, while proceeding onto HWY 1 after having stopped
at the stop sign. A secondary collision
followed when a second eastbound vehicle collided with the first eastbound
vehicle.
The increase of traffic at numerous intersections along HWY 1, has
increased the potential for serious injury collisions and were reminding the
public to be cautious when they come
to any intersection and insure that their
movements are done in safety to prevent any further harm coming to anybody else, said Cpl. Chris Hrynyk, with
the Strathmore RCMP detachment.
When you have numerous people
that are young coming from that high
school that are inexperienced drivers it
adds a different complexity to the intersection as well.
While all occupants with injuries
were treated and have since been released from the hospital, a 17-year-old
male from Chestermere who was in the
first eastbound vehicle succumbed to
his injuries.
Alcohol was not a factor in the
events; however, speed is still being
investigated. Strathmore RCMP and the
collision analyst continue to investigate
with intersection and driver attention
as a focus. While charges may be laid
as a result of the investigation, RCMP
will provide an update upon receiving
further information.
The building of the multiuse outdoor rink is well

underway. The concrete base will be completed by
the end of June and the boards, fencing and landscape will be done in the fall.

Therapy Dogs come to

Strathmore senior homes
JUSTIN SEWARD
Times Reporter
When Del Craig moved to Wheatland Lodge, she knew some things
had to be left behind and one of the
most important things was being a pet
owner.
But that was until a volunteer-based
organization, Chestermere Therapy
Dogs Society gave Craig and other seniors the opportunity to be reunited
with pooches once again.
For Craig, a Lab crossed with an
Australian Cattle Dog named Nike has
restored her sense of ownership.
When we come into a place like
this, we give up our dogs and cats,
so having a pet to talk to and pet, its
fantastic that they do that, said Craig,
who owned German Shepherds and
Boxers previously.
Nike is the most impressive and
she backs up when you tell her to and
lies down and kisses you, a beautiful
well-trained dog and you give her a
cookie every time.
The society launched 17 months
ago, but only recently began bringing the dogs to the Wheatland Lodge
and the Sagewood Seniors facility in
Strathmore.
The Visiting Tails program, which
sets out to improve a seniors way of
life by strengthening their mental and
physical health, is one of three initiatives currently offered by the organization.
Listening Tails is a six-week program that aims to help kids improve
their reading skills, while Caring Tails
focuses on helping people who have
experienced a traumatic event or
stress in their lives.

president of the organization, decided

to expand the program into surrounding areas.
I just approached the facilities
there and they were actually delighted
to have our dogs come in there and
visit with the seniors and all the positive stuff that comes with dog visits
with seniors, said King, a dog trainer
himself.
Were able to sort of fill that void for
them and theres something about the
dog having this amazing ability just to
home in what the seniors need.
Wheatland Lodge activity coordinator, Janice Pedersen, is thrilled to have
the therapy dogs come to the facility
because she feels its a great alternative for the resident to have that positivity around them.
Its nice to have friendly critters
come and enjoy the visit with them. It
is a good therapy and it brings good
memories, said Pedersen.
It enlightens everyone, especially
those that spend more time in the
rooms and [are] not very comfortable
being out in a public crowd.
Pedersen added that it is important
to have these sessions and is planning
to have them more regularly in the future.
For King, the hope is to have all the
programs in place in Strathmore in the
next year.
The plan would include working
with organizations such victim services but according to him, currently
there is quite a bit of protocol and police checks.

Moncks gets the nod

for FISU Games
JUSTIN SEWARD

Times Reporter

Standards Kristen Moncks has seen a lot of success in her volleyball career but it was raised to a
whole new level when she was chosen to represent
Team Canada at the International University Sports
Federation games in South Korea.
The rising star ended her Canadian Interuniversity Sport (CIS) career off with a Canada West title
and a national championship this past season with
the Trinity Western University Spartans.
Ive been out here for three years and this was
my last year and its been incredible, said Moncks.
Being able to end my three years with two gold
medals was pretty amazing. It was definitely rewarding.
Other achievements included Rookie of the Year
at Medicine Hat College while she also broke the
ACAC volleyball dig record in the same year.
In her second year she was awarded the ACAC
All Canadian, followed by the CanWest Libero of
the Year.
She is hoping to transfer these accomplishments
into helping Team Canada win gold.
Ive put a lot of hours into volleyball, that would
be a big factor, said Moncks. My passion for the
game, I think that shows through my play and can
help me at this level.
Team Canada has assigned her to be either a libero or a defensive specialist and she is looking
forward to that challenge against top players.
Moncks said the attention to detail will be a lot
different than what she is used to at the CIS level.
I cant just get away with doing my everyday
thing and I think you cant make the little mistakes
that you can get away with in the CIS, said Moncks.
Once the games get underway, Moncks said it
will all come down to who can perform under
pressure and that will determine who will win the
matches.
She will have some familiarity with her Spartan
coach being on the staff that will help her settle
in on the court.
My coach, Ryan Hofer, hell be a rock for me
personally on the bench just because he was my
coach for CIS, she said.
Moncks said she is fortunate to receive the tremendous support from the small town and would
not be where she is at now without it.
The support from a small town is incredible,
said Moncks, who is currently working with an
agent to possibly play professionally overseas next
year.
Spartans coach and Team Canada assistant Ryan
Hofer said that with Moncks great personality and
her hard work and dedication, she will have no
problem adapting to the international game.
Shes an amazingly hard worker and has the
drive and passion to be the best she can be, said
Hofer. When you put those things together and
youre just in the gym everyday enjoying it because
shes wanting to achieve the best she can do.
He had no second thoughts about relying on her
for key plays during matches all year.
If you look back to the National Championship win, the plays that she made, the energy she
brought and the skill execution that she contributed was huge in helping us win a championship,
said Hofer.
The games will take place in South Korea from
July 3-14.
Venom finding stride

down the stretch
JUSTIN SEWARD

Times Reporter

The Strathmore Venom junior B lacrosse team is sitting
comfortably in a playoff spot with only six games remaining in the Rocky Mountain Lacrosse Leagues regular season.
Head coach Mike Olver has been quite pleased with the
teams play in the last five games, including a 13-9 win
over the Lacoka Locos on June 14 at the Strathmore Family Centre.
Our better players played really well today and some
of the players that dont get as much time were out there
and they played real well too, said Olver. Our goaltending was fantastic today, it all starts in our end and we were
real strong defensively. We have plenty of goal scorers, Im
not worried about the goal scoring, its sometimes in our
own end.
He was impressed with the fact that the Venoms defense was able to hold a couple of the Locos big guns to
one goal.
The one guy, thats very good, and he got one goal
today, we did what we wanted to against him, said Olver.
The reason the Venom were able to keep up to them
was because of their speed.
Olver added the key to success for the boys is to play at
even strength or by having the man advantage and having
a strong penalty kill.
Our penalty killing has been phenomenal the last four
or five games, said Olver.
One of my assistant coaches, he made a change on the
PK and its awesome. So thats been a great thing for our
team, thats helped starting to win more games.
The teams health has been a strength for most of the
season and that is why there have been a consistent number of players in the line-up.
Ive had 18 runners almost every game, said Olver.
Thats a strong point for us because we dont get as tired.

Tri-Smore time!
JUSTIN SEWARD
Times Reporter

Upon the increased participation,
the Tri-Smore triathlon is introducing a
new component to the event this year.
New this year will be the Mega Smore
which will add distance to the track for
those that want more of a challenge in
their races.
Its the Olympic Distance, which is
a 1.5 km swim, a 40 km bike and a
10 km run, said Nicola Johnson, event
organizer.
The reason they added the Mega
Smore is because of it being the fifth
year of the event and they wanted to
add a fifth distance.
She added that the difference would
be the length in the pool, where some
athletes will do it in 28 minutes while
others will take 45 minutes.
She said that there are some loose
ends to tie up before the event gets underway.
We could use a few more volunteers,
were short about four, said Johnson.
The field will be around 400 participants and will have a lot of provincial
flavour to it.
Weve got them from Banff, Edmonton, Pigeon Lake, Medicine Hat, Fort
MacLeod, Lethbridge, Brooks, lots of
little places in between, and lots from
Calgary and Strathmore, said Johnson.
She wanted to give shout out to one
of the participants who will be racing
this year.
We have a 79-year-old lady doing it
this year from town, she said.
She called me up, she was so cute,
because she wanted to register but she
had to register over the phone because
she had no computer. She turns 80 the
week afterwards and this is what she
wanted to do for her 80th birthday.
The deadlines have passed for registration but if a racer were to show up
on June 19 between 6 p.m and 8 p.m. at
the Strathmore Civic Centre then Johnson will find a spot for the participant.
The fee for kids is $20 and an adult
is $60.
The event will commence at 8 a.m.
on June 20 and will conclude by 1 p.m.
If you want to volunteer you can contact Johnson at (403) 480-1218 or follow the link on www.tri-smore.com.

Rock n Ride rollin into Strathmore

JUSTIN SEWARD
Times Reporter

The Strathmore Youth Club is hosting their first
annual Rock n Ride for BMX and skateboarding enthusiasts, encouraging youths to engage in
more community events, and shinning a light on
the sports positive features.
The event will feature clinics that are put on by
Calgary-based BMX Gallery and Calgary Association of Skateboarders Enthusiasts (CASE).
Youth Club Program Director, Shannon Zieman,
knows this activity will highlight the skate parks
positive aspects.
Ultimately our decision to hold the event is
based on trying to get the larger community more
awareness of the skate park and who goes to the
skate park and make it not such a negative stereotype attached to it, said Zieman.
Let people see that the Youth Club and skate
park are positive places. Its a good place for parents to go with young kids and make it more of a
positive atmosphere.
She expressed that parents should realize that
not all youths are troubled and a sport such as
skate boarding is not always negative.
The event is open to all ages and all ability levels.
Basically the workshops are basic intermediate
and more advanced and thats not based on age,
said Zieman.
Our whole point would be to see some parents
actually doing a workshop with their kids. That
ideally would be a neat thing to see.
Festivities on the day will include food trucks,
a panel of local judges and a bike safety course.
There will also be the opportunity to tour the
Youth Club.
Any proceeds from the lunch and canteen will
go to the Outreach section of the Youth Club.
The Rock n Ride will take place on June 27 from
10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the skate park in front of the
Youth Club. Registration is free and lunch will be
provided.

Poker Rally revs up for another year

JUSTIN SEWARD
Times Reporter
Bikers are lining up to play a different type of Poker this weekend. In honour of the founder of the Poker Rally,
Matt Jansen, participants will take part
in the 15th annual celebration to raise
funds for the Kids Cancer Foundation.
The weekend will be kicked off with
a head shaving at the Green Bar, followed by a weekend long bike ride
which will remember Jansen, who
started the rally back in 2000 but lost
his battle with cancer in 2002.
Its kind of generally in his honour
every year, said Jennifer Jordan, Poker
Rally committee member.
We generally, if we know someone
really well or that has lost their battle
to cancer, we do the memory in their
honour.
She added that if it werent for the
dedicated volunteers, the rally would
not be run as smoothly.
People dont understand the level of work thats involved in putting
something like this together and not
only that but the volunteers that are
required, the ability to find a place to
hold the event, said Jordan.
The Poker Rally riders will go around
to communities in and around Strathmore where they will pick up a card
for their poker hand and whoever has
the best cards will win $10,000.
Usually Rockyford is the first stop,
followed by Carbon, Rosedale and then
Wayne, Standard and back to Strathmore.
You get a card everywhere except
for Wayne but you build your hand
at each stop and the final stop is the
Strathmore Green Bar, she said.
They get in all the hands and the
winning hand is presented at the party
on Saturday evening.
Other festivities include a keg push
with the bikes, slow races, a Honey my
Mans home and a keg toss. The kids
will do a mini-keg toss and a beanbag
toss .
The Poker Rally will run all weekend
mood, B.Sc, BA
dvisor
following the head shave on June 19

at 6 p.m., the ride will commence on
June 20 with registration beginning at 9
a.m. at Original Joes. There will be an
adult-only party just north of town on
an acreage. On Sunday June 21, there
will be a Family Day at the same place
as the party, which will begin at noon.
All the events are for the people who
have purchased a wristband on the
Saturday. The address for the Saturday
night party and the Family Day will be
included on the map provided at registration.
The admission for the event will be
$40 a ticket, and that will include the
Poker Run on their motorcycles, as well
as access to the weekend festivities.
Tina Dahl - Fun Country Riding Club
A beautiful show but with some very interesting weather we had rain, wind and sunshine, but all had fun. We have a Show
and Gymkhana several weekends of the 2015 season at the Strathmore Ag Society grounds. There were some new faces, and
quite a few we havent seen yet this season. So it looks like 2015 will bring some more new members into the group for what
will be our 36th year of operation as a family riding club. If you are interested in joining us for some fun times and experiences

Mortgage Matters by Strathmores Mortgage Specialist

With all that is going on in the world today the Bank of Canada has lowered its prime lending
rate several times consecuitively. What does this mean for the citizens of Strathmore? Well
now is a great time to buy a new home. When negotiating the purchase price of your new
home people dont often think about what the real cost of the home is because most people
are so focused on the purchase price they forget about the price to finance. First time home
buyers the time is now dont wait. In todays low interest market the overall price of the
home is effectively reduced by the interest rate itself. Call me today and get preapproved. I will
let you know how much you can afford so that you can go out house hunting
Today is also a great day to refinance your existing home. Even with a
prepayment penalty you can save thousands of dollars off of your mortgage
by refinancing in todays super low interest rate market. Lock in now for
new lower rate and save money. Call me today youll be glad you did

On June 14, 2015, Marie Francois Claire Corbiell

Kuchle (Claire) passed away surrounded by her
loving family. Claire leaves behind her partner, Don
Wegener, her children and their spouses: Darrin and
Merry Kuchle of Calgary and Trevor Kuchle and Michelle Grant of Golden, BC. Claire also leaves behind
three grandchildren, Will, Nicole and Evan Kuchle,
her brother Raymond Corbiell and her nieces and
nephews, Vanessa (and Steve) Perkins, Ramona
(and Alistair) Hill and Mike Corbiell. Claire lived her
entire life on the farm of her family in Cluny, AB. Living on her farm among the golden wheat fields and
coulees of the Alberta prairies was her happy place.
Claire loved her small community filled with family
and friends. Claire was known far and wide for her
amazing cooking and her green thumb. Sharing the
bounty of her garden or the fruits of her labours in
the kitchen was her love language. From her famous popcorn balls at Halloween to her amazing
butter tarts at Christmas, she poured all her love
into anything she made in the kitchen. Family and
friends knew that her door was always open for a
visit, a cookie and a cup of tea. Claire also opened
her home and her table to friends and strangers
from the world over. If she was cooking, all were
invited. Claire happily shared her life for the last 21
years with her partner, Don. Together they kept the
farmyard immaculate and full of the flowers that
made Claire so happy. They also worked tirelessly
on her much-loved vegetable garden. Claire will be
reunited with her parents, Adelard and Berthe Corbiell and her best friend Anne Moynihan. Her family and friends will miss her beautiful spirit and the
love that she showed to everyone she met. A funeral Mass will be celebrated on Thursday, June 18,
2015 at St. Marys Catholic Church, Cluny, AB. at
10:00 a.m. The family asks that donations be made
directly to the Foothills Country Hospice Society
(Box 274, Okotoks, AB T1S 1A5) in lieu of flowers.

Students from elementary schools in the county took part in the Brentwood Fun Run on June 11 that
consisted of a 2 km and a 4 km race.
Students run for the fun

ANDREA ROBERTS
Times Contributor

Running Clubs from elementary
schools in the county competed in the
Fun Run hosted by Brentwood Elementary in a show of healthy competition
and good-fashioned fun on June 11.
An estimated 250 elementary students
took part in this years event that included students from Brentwood, Wheatland, Westmount, Carseland, Rockyford
and Trinity Lutheran Christian Academy
We decided three years ago to host
an event in June for all the schools in
the county, said Ben Sader, who is a
member of the Brentwood Run Club
and a parent.
The reason we did this was very ob-
vious for the kids to have fun and keep

fit.
The event was the brainchild of the
Brentwood Run Club, which was started three years ago and has students
from Grade 3 to Grade 6 participating.
The club has grown to 80 runners who
compete in the club in the spring and
fall.
The first year the run was held it saw
150 runners, and about 175 the second
year. The runners trained this spring to
either compete in the 2 km or the 4 km
races, which went from the Brentwood
Elementary grounds to Grays Lake.
Upon completion of the run, competitors got a medal and received food and
beverages to keep them hydrated in the
scorching mid-day heat.
Judy Merkel died unexpectedly in

Calgary, AB on June 12th 2015 at
the age of 60 years.

Mike Merkel, sisters Debbie Kiemeny, Carol Jameison and Val Seabourne. Her family remember her
as a kind and gentle mother and sister who will be
forever missed. Judy did work for many years for
Strathmore high and Junior high as a custodian.
She was a generous individual who loved flowers, crocheting and who was passionate about her
family. A funeral service will be held on Wednesday June 17, 2015 at Hope Community Covenant
Church (245 Brent Blvd., Strathmore) with a reception to follow. Pastor Glenn Peterson officiant. All
are welcome to attend and celebrate Judys life.
In lieu of flowers, please send donations to Peter
Lougheed Hospital. The family would like to thank
Peter Lougheed hospital staff for their efforts and
care.
It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Grace Anna Walker on June
15, 2015. Grace was born in Drumheller, Alberta
on July 15, 1951 to Ingeborg and Peter Koustrup
of Dalum. Grace is survived by her loving husband
Bruce, her son Jim (along with his wife Sarah and
their children Camille, Reece and Dane), daughters
Carolyn and Marjorie, her mother Ingeborg and
siblings Linda, David and Carol. Her kind heart and
beautiful soul will be missed immensely. Special
thanks to the staff at the Strathmore Hospital, especially Elwin, Monica, Gloria and Mary. Thank you
for taking such special care of Grace. In lieu of flowers, the family would be very appreciative of donations to the Palliative Care Consult Service, whom
ensured Graces comfort during her stay in the
hospital and provided the family with unwavering
support. Donations can be made in Graces name
to the Sheep River Health Trust (Okotoks Health and
Wellness Centre, 11 Cimarron Common, Okotoks,
AB, T1S 2E9, 403-995-5400). A memorial service
will be held on Monday, June 22 at St. Andrews

Mortgage Matters by Strathmores Mortgage Specialist

With all that is going on in the world today the Bank of Canada has lowered its prime lending
rate several times consecuitively. What does this mean for the citizens of Strathmore? Well
now is a great time to buy a new home. When negotiating the purchase price of your new
home people dont often think about what the real cost of the home is because most people
are so focused on the purchase price they forget about the price to finance. First time home
buyers the time is now dont wait. In todays low interest market the overall price of the
home is effectively reduced by the interest rate itself. Call me today and get preapproved. I will
let you know how much you can afford so that you can go out house hunting
Today is also a great day to refinance your existing home. Even with a
prepayment penalty you can save thousands of dollars off of your mortgage
by refinancing in todays super low interest rate market. Lock in now for
new lower rate and save money. Call me today youll be glad you did
