Tragedy on
Trans Canada
Shannon LeClair
Times Reporter

A fatal collision occurred in the westbound

lane of the Highway 1, just outside of Strath-
Strathmore shows more at approximately 5 p.m. on July 26. A
its beauty semi truck and a John Deer farm tractor pull-
ing a haybine collided when the truck went
to pass the tractor. The tractor had been trav-
elling westbound in the right lane, and the
Page 9 semi truck also in the right lane signaled to
move into the left lane.
“When the driver of the tractor was ap-
proaching the intersection there was a guard-
rail he had to move out of the way for, which
caused the haybine that he was towing to
move into the fast lane,” said Const. Brock
Grolla. “He signaled to pass the tractor but
he didn’t realize the tractor was going to be
moving out, and when he went to pass him,
he struck that haybine.”
The driver of the semi truck, a 63-year-old

down and swerve out of the way. He suffered
lacerations to his face, but was otherwise un-
injured. The driver of the tractor, a 64-year-old
male from the Strathmore area, succumbed to

fire department and the RCMP were called to
the scene, efficiently blocking the view from
gawkers. Const. Brock Grolla with the RCMP
said neither alcohol nor speed was a factor
and that it was an unfortunate accident. At
press time the name of the tractor driver had
not been released.

During the week of June 19, a num-

ber of residents called the Town office,
and EPCOR about a water testing com-
pany called H20 canvassing the town.
A representative from the company
was going door to door telling resi-
dents they would like to test water
quality and hardness.
A few of the residents who called in
indicated the company was acting on
behalf of the town.
“The Town and EPCOR have not
hired this organization to provide wa-
ter testing services. This is an unsolic-
ited sales effort by this company and
residents should use ‘Buyer Beware’ ef-
forts in determining if they would like
to have their water tested,” said Jesse
Parker, Director of Engineering and
Operations for the Town of Strathmore.
Parker said water testing is performed
throughout the Town by EPCOR, and is
a requirement of Alberta Environment
Approval to operate waterworks sys-
tem.
Senior Peace Officer Gary Abel
looked into the company and found
out the salesman was from Star Indus-
tries in Calgary.
“When I called them last week they
claimed they had only one salesman
working the Strathmore area and he
could not possibly be misrepresenting
himself as he had been ‘trained,’” said
Abel.
Abel said he then advised the com-
pany they had not been working with a
valid business license since December
of 2009. He also informed the company
the Town would be reviewing the situ-
ation and discussing whether a license
would be issued.
“This morning ( July 27) they called
me back and apologized for the issues
and will not be in Strathmore again,”
said Abel.

On July 22 the Communities In Bloom,
C.I.B, judges were in Strathmore to rate the
town on a variety of aspects. This was the
fifth year the C.I.B organization has been
in Strathmore, and last year was the only
one judges didn’t check out the town. Last
year the provincial awards banquet was
held in Strathmore, and the town hosting
the banquet is not judged that year.
“They have a grid for the town and they
judge the town and do interviews with
people,” said Robert Breitwieser a mem-
ber of C.I.B.
There was a dinner reception held for
the judges in the evening of July 22. C.I.B
judge Louise Bruins spoke to the guests
and offered information about what the
judges look for.
Some of the eight items judges look for
are things such as tidiness, tree and urban
forest management, and environmental
awareness.
In each of the eight categories the judg-
es look at what the municipal and pub-
lic properties have done. They also look
at commercial and industrial, churches,
schools and not-for-profit groups. Lastly

Wish
come true
Shannon LeClair
Times Reporter
There are often organizations raising
money for different charities, and often
the Children’s Wish Foundation is on the
receiving end. Most times, though, when
stories are told of those who received
wishes, they are not anyone you may
know.
Leeza Nielson is from Hussar and she is
seven years old. When Leeza was five she
was diagnosed with leukemia.
“It started with a cold that wouldn’t
go away, it wasn’t getting worse or bet-
ter. So she was put on antibiotics, and
she reacted to it and she got hives which
wouldn’t go away,” said Sherri Nielson,
Leeza’s mom.
She said one day they were sitting on
the couch when she noticed Leeza had
little purple dots, which is a sign of pe-
techia. Sherri works at a medical lab in
Drumheller where she took Leeza in for
blood work. Leeza carried the blood over
to the machines and as the results started
to come out Sherri knew it wasn’t good.
Sherri spoke to a doctor who told her
basically she could either take an ambu-
lance or drive herself, but they had to get
to the Children’s hospital in Calgary.
“Your whole world turns upside down
in less than a minute. We went and it was
nine months before we got home again.
I had to have a friend go to the farm and
wait for all the kids to come home and
explain to them why we weren’t there,”
said Sherri. She said it was like hav-
ing two families living in two separate
worlds. Her three sons stayed home with
her husband, who tried to keep their lives
as normal as possible. Sherri and Leeza
moved into the Ronald McDonald House,

Wishes do come true, at least for seven-
year-old Leeza Nielson. The Children’s Wish

perky as they could be,” said Sherri.
Leeza began chemotherapy treat-
ments almost immediately after being
diagnosed. When her hair fell out, Sherri
shaved her own hair in a show of support
for her daughter.
Every patient is assigned a social work-
er at the Children’s hospital, and she told
them about the Children’s Wish Founda-
tion. After they moved into the RMH a rep
from the wish foundation came and filled
out forms with the family.
When the Nielson family found out
Leeza was being granted a wish, a bunch
of stuff about Disney adventures was sent
to the family. They were picked as a fam-
ily to go on the Disney Cruise, and Leeza
wanted to be on the ship for her seventh
birthday.
The Children’s Wish Foundation gave
everyone in the family T-Shirts with their
logo and requested they all wear it just
one day on the cruise. The foundation
covered all of the costs incurred for the
trip. They also will pay for passports, or
anything that is needed for the family.
Everything on the cruise was shaped like
Mickey Mouse from the pool to the food.
“The two ears were hot tubs,” said
Leeza. Her favourite Disney character is
Mickey, and so for Leeza it was an even
bigger treat. All of the Disney characters
were around for photos everyday, and
Sherri said it was like a full time job try-
ing to get photos with everyone.
“The people that fundraise to make
sure these things happen don’t get to
use the facility or the wish, which to me
makes it extra special that they are will-
ing to volunteer their time, volunteer fi-
nancially and do whatever they have to
do, in order for kids to have something
special,” said Sherri.
Leeza finished treatment on July 18, but
will continue going for checkups once a
month for a year. Then it will be once
every two months for another year, and
after that she will have to go once a year
until she is approximately 18-years-old.
“She did amazingly well, and she had
a few little side effects, but kids are very
resilient and they handle it far better then
adults do,” said Sherri.
The family will be going to Medicine
Hat in August to volunteer at a fundraiser
CP Rail is holding for the Children’s Wish
Foundation on their steam train.

PROJecT 2010
The Western Irrigation District is proposing to rehabilitate the main
canal through the Town of Strathmore. The construction limit will start
from the abandoned railway right of way west of the Strathmore Golf
course then to the east to Parklane Dr. The rehabilitation will include
the reshaping, lining and armouring of the existing canal to allow for
future flows.
The existing culverts located at Parklane Dr will be replaced during
the rehabilitation. The Town of Strathmore is working in conjunction
with the District to upgrade its infrastructure below the new culverts.
The Town of Strathmore’s activity is to widen the current crossing and
enable a wider roadway and sidewalk in the future. The time frame for
this work to commence is early October after the WID closes down the
canal for the season.
During the phases of construction, sections of the Parklane Drive
will be closed to all traffic. Alternate routes will be clearly identified,
marked and utilized for access during these times. The final detour
options will be posted on the town website and local newspaper as we
move closer to start up dates. We ask residents to plan for alternate
routes during this time.
The Town of Strathmore thanks you for your
patience during this
vital upgrade.

Happy ending for ducks

The Strathmore Fire Department was called in to help with an animal rescue on July
25. Instead of a cat in a tree it was ducks in a drain. A mother duck was walking with
her babies along Westlake Bay when she crossed over a storm drain. Two babies
went down and when she walked back over the drain to see where they went, the
others fell through. Witnesses called the fire department to help rescue the babies.
Fortunately the department had been doing rescue training nearby and Fire Chief
Muir Furzer went to inspect the situation. Four members from the fire hall came to
the rescue. They lifted the grate and one member climbed into the drainpipe with
a cardboard box. Almost immediately the baby ducks came over to the fire fighter 205 - 3rd Ave. - Hilton Plaza
who then carried them to safety. Strathmore, AB
Everyone feared the mother may have abandoned her babies, but when they were 403.934.6044
let loose at the lake, they chirped and she flew over to them.
“It was a really good ending,” said Furzer. All five of the babies followed their mom,

Letters to the editor

New group to seek out candidates for election this fall

To the Editor
In the municipal election in 2007 there was a large
appetite for change in terms of our councillors and
Mayor. Most of that change occurred with only two
incumbents winning re-election.
Are you satisfied with that change? In the past year
a poll was done in a local paper asking residents if
they were happy with the performance of their Mayor
and Council. The poll showed over 80% disapproved
of their performance. Such a strong sentiment cannot
be ignored. It is easy to complain about our politi-
cians but if nothing is done to solve the problem - we
deserve what we get.
A group is being formed with some specific goals
in mind. This group is not a venue for complaining
about town issues, reciting stories about our politi-
cians etc. The purpose of this group is to:
1) Seek out strong candidates for Council and espe-
cially for Mayor,
2) Approach these individuals and encourage them
to run,
3) Offer support to these candidates in their cam-
paign for the municipal election
4) Publicly endorse these candidates in advance of
the election date
Do you want a say in the future of your community?
If you would like to be apart of this endeavour we
welcome your help. If you are thinking of running, we
would prefer you not be a part of this group, however,
we would certainly still like to hear from you.
If interested in helping please email us (no phone
calls at this time please) at changeforstrathmore@

RCMP Briefs
$50k worth of items gone
On June 29, there was a reported break,
enter and theft from a residence in the ru-
ral Strathmore area. Unknown persons had
gained entry to the residence through the
garage. Once inside, the culprits backed
a vehicle up to the front of the house and
loaded up. Missing from the residence
are bedroom chairs, leather living room
furniture, lamps, bedroom linens, cloth-
ing, coats, candles, watches, rare antique
swords, front load washer and dryer, rare
artwork, files, computer monitor and beer.
Two driveway lamps outside the front of the
house were broken by the culprits’ vehicle.
The total value of missing and broken items
is approximately $50,000.
“If you’re going to be away for more than
a day or two, you want to make sure some-
body is going to look after your house,” said
Sgt. Kevin Reilly. He recommends making
sure the person takes away any newspa-
pers, mail, and cut the lawn. Reilly stated
one of the most important things people can
do is purchase a timer, which turns lights on
and off at different times.
“Some people have timers that only turn
your lights on and off at certain times every-
day, and for not much money more, you can
purchase one with seven or 14 day timers
and you can set them for different times,”
said Reilly.

avoid further incidents. The GMC swerved

All five youth in the Neon were unharmed
during this incident and no other vehicles
were involved.
Motor Cycle collides with
RCMP Police Motor Vehicle
On July 26th, 2010 at approximately
4:45 PM at the intersection of Highway 22X
and Range Road 272, Rockyview, Alberta,
motor cycle ran into the rear of a stopped
RCMP police motor vehicle.
The RCMP police vehicle was a fully
marked police car that was stopped, travel-
ing Eastbound, at the intersection on High-
way 22X at Range Road 272 waiting for a
vehicle in front of the police car that was
turning left (northbound) onto Range Road
272. The civilian car in front of the marked
police car was stopped waiting for a break
in oncoming traffic to make a left turn in
safety.
A 51 year old lone male driver on a motor
cycle ran into the rear of the marked police
motor vehicle. The driver of the motor cycle
was thrown off the motor cycle and sus-
tained injuries. The motor cyclist was wear-
ing a helmet. Emergency Medical Services
and Fire Department was called to and at-
tended the scene. The driver of the motor
cycle was transported to the Strathmore
Hospital. He was released from the hospital
and is expected to recover from his injuries
ues the investigation with assistance from
the Calgary RCMP Traffic Services Analyst.
Alcohol and/or drugs is not believed to
be a factor in the collision.
Not For Human Consumption
It has been brought to the attention of
the Brooks RCMP that a local business is
selling a product entitled Happy Shaman
Herbs. On July 20th a young female at-
tended the Brooks RCMP detachment to
report that she and friends had purchased a
small amount of Happy Shaman Herbs and
smoked the product based on the instruc-
tion of the business employee.
The young female had an adverse re-
action to the product, was treated at the
Brooks Hospital and released.
Brooks RCMP attended the business and
spoke with the employee who stated that
the product was like a “legal drug” that will
make you feel woozy. Further investigation
into the product revealed that the product is
labeled “Not for Human Consumption”, no
ingredient list is provided on the package
or available at the business. The package
only states that Happy Shaman Herbs is a
combination of rare plants, herbal extracts
and botanical concentrates.
Happy Shaman Herbs is a natural herbal
incense, the product is in no way meant to
be smoked, chewed or ingested into the
body. The Brooks RCMP would like to
remind the public that this product is not
regulated by the Food and Drug Act and
the actual contents contained within are
unknown. The directions for use need to

Splashing into fun

Shannon LeClair
Times Reporter
Spalsh’N Boots will be coming to
Strathmore to take part in Heritage
Days. The husband and wife duo have
been performing since 2003 and have
put out four CD’s and seven music vid-
eos. Splash’N Boots are full of energy
and fun for kids ages 2 to 7. They will be
performing on the EnCana stage three
times daily from Saturday until Monday.
“Its one of our favourite events,” said
Nick Adams, Splash.
“There are a bunch of new songs. We
get some of the kids right up on stage
with us, so a lot of interaction this year,”
said Adams.
One reason they love coming out here
is because they think Alberta is wonder-
ful, and Nick said they spend more time
touring in Alberta than they do in On-
tario.
“It’s quite fun to see everyone get into
it, and the audience is fantastic. I know
they come for the rodeo but I think they
really support the entertainment too,”
said Adams.
“We’ve performed at the Heritage
Days Stampede before and can see why
it’s one of the top rodeos in Canada!”
said Taes Adams, Boots. “The shows and
the people are so much fun, we just love
it.”
Splash’N Boots originated when a
course assignment, at Queens Univer-
sity, to write children’s tunes mixed with
a love for the children’s entertainers of
their youth led to recordings and per-
formances across Canada. The duo has
performed in over six countries for a to-
tal of over 900 shows. They were also
recently named the Canadian Children’s
group of the year award winners.

Race Against Hunger Program Challenges

the Strathmore Community to Support
Wheatland County Food Bank
The World Professional
Chuckwagon Associa-
tion’s drivers are racing
for more than bragging
rights this weekend on
the 2010 WPCA Dodge
Pro Tour. As part of the
new Race Against Hun-
ger program presented
by Encana, the drivers
are working with Wheat-
land County Food Bank
to raise donations of
non-perishable food for
those in need.
To date, the Race
Against Hunger has
raised more than $21,000
and 2,800 lbs of food in
support of food banks in
the Grande Prairie, Drum-
heller, Ponoka and Cal-
gary regions. “We hope
the Strathmore commu-
nity gets behind the pro-
gram and becomes our
most supportive commu-
nity yet. So far, out of all
of the official Tour stops,
Ponoka was the most
driven, raising over 300
lbs of food and $8,000
in cash donations,” says
Carmen Stone, Marketing
Manager with the WPCA.
“The WPCA is very
excited about this op-
portunity to give local
food banks a boost. Our
young drivers, who are a
big part of this initiative,
especially see the real
value in being communi-
ty-minded,” adds Stone.
Encana’s Community
Investment Program con-
tains a key focus on sup-
porting family and com-
munity wellness. “ We’re
aware that the recession
isn’t over for everyone,
so raising awareness for
food banks is a great way
for us to give back to the
communities where we
live and work,” says Dar-
ci-Jane McAualy, Group
Lead of Community Rela-
tions for Encana.
Chuckwagons served
the hard working set-
tlers of western Canada
as portable kitchens on
cattle drives and long
hauls across the prairies.
“It’s nice to think that
the chuckwagon hasn’t
changed much – it pro-
vided food and comfort
then, and it’s continu-
ing to do so today,” adds
Stone.
The Race Against Hun-
ger Chuckwagon will be
located at the entrance of
the Strathmore Hertiage
Days grounds so commu-
nity members can drop
off non-perishable food
and get a chance for au-
tographs and interaction
with the WPCA’s “food
drivers”. The wagon will
be available for the du-
ration of the event, and
will also accept cash do-
nations.

Better than ever

The 53rd annual Rockyford rodeo had crowds filling Main Street for the pancake breakfast followed by the parade on July
24. This was the first year a gunfight had taken place and the crowd got right into the show cheering the actors. The sun
shone bright the entire weekend as people took in the three days of fun filled events. A mini midway was set up for the kids
to enjoy, and snow cones sold more than the cotton candy as a way to help beat the heat.

The Hurtin’ for Haiti team left Win-
nipeg on July 17 and arrived in Strath-
more on July 25. The group continued
to run on to the Welcome to Calgary
sign, which was as far as the city would
allow them to go. Originally there were
six members going but on the first day
of the run, they lost a runner.
“The weather has been a bit of a
shake up for us, we’ve been trying to
beat the heat,” said James Slade one of
the runners.
“It poured rain about 10 minutes be-
fore we left,” said Chantal Denholm.
This is the longest run any of them
have ever done in consecutive days. The
runners are raising money for Haiti. The
idea started with Donovan Hale, who
lived in Jamaica before moving to Win-
nipeg. Hale knows about the devasta-
tion that can hit a community after an
earthquake, or any type of natural di-
saster, and now it is hurricane season
in Haiti.
Denholm’s sister-in-law Candace lives
in Strathmore and was a huge help to
Chantal, and the rest of the team. Can-
dace set up a fundraising BBQ at M&M
Meats to help the team raise money for
the relief efforts.
“Our website donations are coming
in daily, so we don’t know (what’s been
raised),” said Slade.
“We were in Medicine Hat in our hotel
when someone knocked on our door to
give us money.”
The team isn’t running back to Win-
nipeg; they all have different plans for
when the run is done. One plan they all

and people will be able to ask about the
trip and donate to the cause.
“The fundraising is ongoing, we’re go-
ing to keep the website up,” said Slade.
Depending on the day, each team
member was running between 22 to 35
miles a day. A few setbacks have hit the
group, in terms of minor injuries and
the weather, but nothing has made their
determination falter.
“I feel almost as good today as I did
on day two,” said Slade. The money be-
ing raised will be for temporary shel-
ters, but the group was told temporary
shelters would become permanent
when people move into them. So now
they are looking for more long-term
shelters. The team would love to raise
millions, but Slade said his goal for now
would be $100,000. Chantal said run-
ning and fundraising has been more
difficult than she thought it would be
in the beginning. She said when on the
road, its hard to connect with people
when you’re tired and especially when
in a small town.
“Strathmore has probably been the
best reception we’ve had,” said Chan-
tal. Because of some of the troubles
the team has had, they are considering
writing a how-to guide for anyone who
plans to fundraise cross-country. The
website, hurtinforhaiti.weebly.com, will
remain up, though the team is not sure
when or if they might make a run like
this again.

Spending a weekend playing paintball, while raising money for charity was
a weekend well spent for some. Crosshairs Paintball Ltd lent their course
to raise money for the Children’s Wish Foundation on July 24 and 25.

Shooting
for charity
Shannon LeClair
Times Reporter

Saturday and Sunday saw the first,

possibly annual, charity paintball tour-
nament held at Crosshairs Paintball Ltd.
Fred and Joni Maunsell own Crosshairs
Paintball Ltd, and work for Global Train-
ing Centre next door. Every year the
Global Training Centre hosts two main
events to raise money for different char-
ities as well as a few other smaller type
events. All money being raised this year
is going to the Children’s Wish Foun-
dation. Earlier this summer there was
a garage sale, and a car wash, and at
Christmas they adopt families and do
food hamper drives.
“Global has a social committee, and
both Fred and I are on the committee,
and Fred brought up holding a charity
paintball tournament,” said Joni.
For $400, teams were given a beef on
a bun dinner, three games, and all of the
paintball gear they needed. Volunteers
ran the weekend, and there were nine
teams registered.
“We were hoping for 20 (teams), but
we got nine, so we’re hoping for more
next year,” said Joni. There were three
levels of game played, an A, B and C
level, and the Strathmore Rural Fire De-
partment came in second for the B level.
For those who didn’t want to run the
field but still wanted to be a part of the
fun, there was a shoot out. For $5 peo-
ple had a chance to test their marksman-
ship by shooting eight cans off a wood-
en sawhorse. Participants were given
12 paintballs, and the person with the
highest score won a gun set.
The weekend ended with many peo-
ple commenting that they would like to
come back again next year.
“We don’t have the final figures but we
figure it’s got to be close to the $10,000
mark,” said Joni.

Championship games
to bring influx of tourism
Shannon LeClair
Times Reporter
The Western Canadian Fast Pitch
Championships are coming to Strath-
more from August 5 to 8. The Calgary
Minor Softball Association will host the
Championships, which has been in op-
eration for over 40 years. The games will
be held at the Agricultural grounds with
16 teams competing, nine girls teams
and four boys teams for a total of 240
players.
“Each province hosts them at different
times and it comes to Alberta every so
often. Every year each province puts in
a bid to have it hosted in that province,”
said Kathy Worthington, executive direc-
tor for the Calgary Minor Softball Asso-
ciation.
There are an expected 1,200 people
coming into town for the tournament,
and the association wants to keep all of
the business in town by asking for sup-
port from residents and businesses.
“We’re trying to get Sparky, your fire
truck, to get pictures on. We’re trying to

get a letter from the mayor, and Frosted
Impressions is doing the program,” said
Worthington.
Two teams each from British Colum-
bia, Saskatchewan and Manitoba will be
taking part in the tournament. Alberta
will have three teams, because the host-
ing province always has three. On Au-
gust 5 at 10:30 a.m., all of the teams will
march onto the fields and Strathmore’s
own Kirsten Johnson will be singing
‘Oh Canada.’ Dignitaries will be brought
in for opening speeches and there will
be a first pitch before the games begin.
Rocky’s Bakery will be catering a din-
ner for the teams and their families.
“The dinner holds 500 people, so we’ve
limited it to 30 tickets per team,” said
Worthington, who added many teams
have already requested 35 tickets.
Water will be provided to the teams,
and there will be a concession and
clothes for sale. Because the teams are
the elite PeeWee ‘A’, pitching speeds will
be up to 55 miles per hour, and any of
the games will be intense, great games
to watch.
