Local firefighter aids
Red Cross relief efforts
ADELLE ELLIS
Times Reporter
Local firefighter Sean Freeman has recently completed
his fourth overseas mission with the International Feder-
ation of Red Cross (IFRC) and the Canadian Red Cross.
Freeman returned from Nhamatanda, Mozambique
where he worked on field hospital operations and ca-
pacity building in reconstruction of hospital infrastruc-
tures after the country in southeast Africa was devastat-
ed by not one, but two cyclones.
The senior firefighter and acting deputy chief has been
a member of the Strathmore Fire Department (SFD) since
1995. Freeman also has background in general construc-
tion, lifeguard qualifications and outdoor, wilderness
and guiding experience, and certified electrician.
According to the government of Mozambique, on
March 19, cyclone Idai made landfall in Mozambique
with maximum sustained winds of 170 to 190 kilometres
per hour (km/h), affecting more than 1.5 million people
and displacing 142,000 people, and it was confirmed to
have killed 602 people in Mozambique, 344 people in
Zimbabwe and 56 in Malawi. Floods covered over 3,000
square kilometres, destroyed approximately 230,000
houses and over 750,000 hectares of agricultural land.
The initial cyclone Idai was followed by a second cy-
clone on April 24, resulting in further loss of life and
substantial damage.
“I try to participate in IFRC or Canadian Red Cross
disaster responses when called to do so,” said Freeman.
“The electrical systems of the Nhamatanda Hospital
needed to be rebuilt with the other systems that were
refurbished, so I went to address the electrical service,
distribution systems and backup generator.”
Freeman was away working on the relief efforts for a
month between May and June of this year.
He was unable to attend the initial response immedi-
ately following the first cyclone. But when the second
call for volunteers was paged out, he jumped to respond
and signed up to work on the electrical refurbishment.
Freeman also trained local staff and volunteers on the
use of technical systems involved in the mobile field hos-
pital. The local hospital worked with local electricians to
mentor them on the new systems, and trained the local
Red Cross volunteers in the use of tents and equipment
for emergency and disaster response.
Previous relief efforts Freeman has taken part in have Sun and fun
included working in an Ebola virus treatment centre in Creative Events held their second annual SUNsational Summer Market on July 20
Sierra Leonne, a capacity building and training mission with handcrafted artisans, food trucks, a lemonade stand and many other activi-
in the Philippines, and in Nepal working on a field hos- ties, just outside of Strathmore. The event is sponsored by Necias Notables, Auntie
pital operation and capacity building. D’s Baby Swag and the Little Shoppe of Metal.

Rural communities encouraged 403.934.3877

to apply for funding • Complete / Partial Dentures

• Same Day Relines & Repair

JANET KANTERS
Times Editor
Rural communities across Alberta are
encouraged to apply for a minimum of
$10,000 and up to $100,000 for projects
that support either recreational, educa-
tion events and activities, or cultural fa-
cilities and programs.
United Farmers of Alberta Co-opera-
tive Ltd. (UFA) is awarding rural com-
munities the money through its Rural
Communities Foundation (RCF).
The mandate of the RCF is to improve
the sustainability of farmers and ranch-
ers in Alberta by improving access to
funding for educational, recreational
and cultural facilities and programs in
those communities.
“The Foundation was created in 2014,
through the support of UFA’s elected
officials, to give back the archived eq-
uity collected by the Co-operative,” ex-
plains RCF Board Chair Harvey Hag-
man. “Through the formation of this
Foundation, we are now able to give
these monies back to those UFA com-
munities. We’re pleased to announce
today that RCF will award applications
from a minimum of $10,000, up to a
total of $100,000 this year.”
Hagman said applications will be ac-
cepted from July 2 until Aug. 31, 2019.
The RCF board will then review the
applications and announce the official
winners during Cooperative Week in
Canada on Oct. 16, 2019.
Groups eligible for funding include
registered charities under the Canada
Revenue Agency, registered non-profit
organizations that are registered with
• Custom Mouthguards
either their provincial or municipal
government, and community service • Custom Night Guards
co-operatives. All projects must align • Natural Teeth Whitening
with one of the three funding catego-
ries of recreational, education events
and activities or cultural facilities and
programs. Projects must be completed
within a two-year period and be lo-
cated in a community that has a UFA
presence.
“This money was always intended for
our rural communities and now that we
have a process in place, this will assist 413 - 3rd St. Strathmore
with the sustainability of our rural com-
munities for many years to come,” said
Hagman GET YOUR CLASSIFIED

Words
PAT FULE
Random Thoughts
If I was one of my neighbours, I’d have gathered
the whole family around the front room window
Sunday night, because Pat Fule brought the ladder
out to his driveway!
Yup, Deb had requested (ordered) that I take
down the security camera so she could charge it.
If they read the last column, this could have been
great Sunday evening entertainment. I wasn’t
scared to climb again, but I did actually have some
words with the ladder before I stepped on.
“Look ladder,” I said (I’m on a first name basis
with ladder cuz he and his pals have been jerks
to me … a lot!), “I’m about to climb you, and you
guys have had your fun. Just let me get up and
down with no crash on the cement and I’ll store
you back in the garage, out of the rain.”
It must’ve worked, because I made it with no
falls. I was pretty sure I heard a disappointed sigh
from somewhere (I guess the neighbours might’ve
been a little disappointed!). I get it though … it’d
be like buying tickets to Evel Knievel and then
there’s no spectacular crash.
I got to thinking about the words I used on
ladder and how for once it worked, and I didn’t
get chucked to the cement driveway. The words
we use are very important in communicating our
meaning. Anyone who knows me knows I love all
kinds of music, but I’m a big ’50s to ’80s guy and
I love lyrics that are poetic or have deep meaning.
Take that famous ’60s song and its deep lines of:
“Who put the bomp in the bomp bah bomp bah
bomp, who put the ram in the rama lama ding
dong?”
I mean, even though this song was written in
1961, its lyrics still have relevance in today’s hyper
busy world of 2019. Who hasn’t tried to figure out
the answer to that song’s question? Those are the
types of lyrics that made girls fall for boys! How
do I know? Because the song even says: “they
made my baby fall in love with me!” It’s gotta be
right!
I’ve always had trouble with two songs of my
generation. The first is Stairway to Heaven.
For the longest time (maybe up to last year, but
I can neither confirm or deny this), I thought that
famous line where the song is building in deep
and great power, that the lyrics were: “And there’s
a wino down the road …”. In actual fact, the lyrics
are “And as we wind on down the road …”. I can’t
recall how many times I may have belted out the
wrong line at various parties, but I hope no one
was able to remember – it was the ’70s after all!
The other song is one written by Bruce Springs-
teen but was a hit for Manfred Mann, called Blind-
ed by the Light. Believe it or not, this song was
one of the warm up songs for my high school
basketball team!
I always thought this song was one where I
could be a bit of a rebel. If you know the song,
there’s a part right after the line: “blinded by the
light” that goes: “revved up like a deuce, another
rover in the night.”
For years, I thought the word “deuce” was some-
thing very different that rhymed, but was not a
deuce (again, I can neither confirm or deny what
I really thought was the word, but it sure wasn’t
deuce!).
As a long-time high school PE teacher (and
English, I might add! Did happen to get called a
“dumb jock” at times), I liked to bring humour to
my classes. Sometimes it was the words I used to
give the team names in our class games. There’s
nothing like having three floor hockey teams
named Inmates, Guards and Patients.
I felt it sometimes captured the true character
of my students. When it was flu season and a lot
of kids were away, I went with a medical theme.
Here one team might be the Scabs another the In-
fection, but my favourite was Weeping Sores!
For some reason, no one wanted to be on Team
3?! Hmm… another time, I named a team the
Strathmore Meatpackers.
Then I did mini commercials during substitu-
tions: “… can’t find Rover, we know where he is
… Strathmore Meatpackers!
From 1986 to 1990, my in-laws, some friends
and Deb and I owned the Rose & Crown Pub in
Canmore. I’ve always felt that Strathmore could
really use a true Commonwealth-style pub, and
I’m prepared to let you use a word that I always
thought would be great for a pub. Are you ready?
“Werk” (intentionally spelled wrong, to attract
interest). Just think… you want to go out with
your pals but aren’t sure your wife will approve.
You merely say the pub’s name in a sentence to
her: “Honey, I’ll be at Werk with Joe Rockhead
tonight … I’ll probably have to stay at Werk ‘til 11.
The boss will probably be at Werk, too.” Or, let’s
say it’s your day off, you merely insert the words:
“Honey, I actually do have to go to Werk again
today, in fact, my whole crew has to go to Werk.”
Genius, eh? It’ll work (correct spelling) for a
while, but the wives will always wonder if their
husbands are at work, or at Werk! In case, you’re
going to use this word as Strathmore’s newest
pub… you’re welcome!

Times Contributor
The Strathmore Farmers’ Market has proven to be a great
way to showcase local products and unique homemade items,
ranging from locally grown fruits and veggies to handmade
keychains and bracelets.
The market has a “make it, bake it, grow it” slogan which
helps the customer buy items that are local and handmade.
The market is held every Friday from 3 to 6:30 p.m. at Kins-
men Park pavilion.
According to Tracy Hamilton, manger of Strathmore Farm-
ers’ Market, there are a lot of “great local vendors that work
really hard in the market.”
The Strathmore Farmers’ Market has been ongoing for 21
years. In the past, the market was located in the Kinsmen
Park parking lot and the Strathmore ag grounds. The market
was moved to Kinsmen Park pavilion last year.
Special variety-themed markets are also held, such as the
fall-themed market, Christmas market and an annual Mother’s
Day market. This year’s regular summer market will include a
customer appreciation day during its last market on Sept. 20.
According to Hamilton, on average there are 25 to 30 ven-
dors at each Friday’s market.
“There is always a really good mix of vendors and items
and it is always good to shop local,” she said.

While the market mainly runs smoothly, over the course
of managing the market for 17 years, Hamilton has “learned
to deal with different personalities and different ways to do
things.”
Many vendors are at the market week after week, setting
up, displaying and selling their unique items. Lisa, who as-
sists at the Harrison Farms vendor booth at the market, sell-
ing pies, jams, jellies, syrups and salsas, says Harrison Farms
as been at the farmers’ market since 2006. “In the market
there is a great community. You can get out and meet people
and all the vendors know and support each other. I wouldn’t
have met everyone without the farmers’ market.”
Chris O’Neill, who goes by Crazy Chris, is a balloon artist
and has only been part of the Strathmore Farmers’ Market for
two weeks. He said he is already loving it. “I like the commu-
nity, the town and the atmosphere. Even when I am standing
here freezing, I am having a good time.”
Hamilton said different items and vendors each week and
new customers as well make the market a great place to dis-
cover.
“It is a big happy family here,” she noted. “Wonderful
vendors and customers bring the community together each
week.”
The Strathmore Farmers’ Market is currently seeking new
board members. Visit strathmorefarmersmarket.ca/about for

Capsule Comments
Can you take too much of a good thing? For
example, vitamin D is very popular right now and
doses of 400 to 4000 IU daily are taken by many
Canadians. But you can take too much. There was
a case in Canada where a man took 8000 to 12000
IU daily over 30 months which resulted in kidney
damage. Moderation is the key in everything….
even when taking vitamins.
A heart attack happens when the arteries to the
heart become blocked so that a section of the heart
muscle can’t get enough oxygen. The blockage is
caused by a fatty deposit (plaque) breaks off from the
artery lining causing the blockage. When your heart
can’t “breathe”, you get the symptoms: crushing
pain in chest, neck areas, nausea, sweating, fainting
and lightheadedness and shortness of breath. If this
is happening to you, call 911 right away.
Pregnant women who sleep on their sides have a
lower risk of a still birth than those who sleep on
their backs. And it doesn’t seem to matter whether
you are a left side or right side sleeper. It’s better
for the baby.
Keep a current list of your medications with you
at all times. Include non-prescription and herbal
remedies as well. This list should contain the
strength of the medication, how often you take
it, what it is for and a brief description of what it
looks like. You never know when you will need
this medication list and it can be invaluable in an
emergency situation.

almost here
LEELA SHARON AHEER
Chestermere-Strathmore MLA
Hello Strathmore! I hope you’ve been
taking advantage of the Stick Around
Downtown Strathmore In July promo-
tion showcasing the many great local
businesses in downtown Strathmore.
From clothes to shoes to tattoos and
great food, there’s something for every-
one and you could win some fabulous
prizes.
The Strathmore Stampede is rapidly
approaching so get those boots pol-
ished and get ready to enjoy some fan-
tastic rodeo entertainment and special
events like Running with the Rams and
the RCMP Musical Ride. I am loading
up with candy for the parade and I am
co-hosting a post-parade barbecue with
MP Martin Shields at Kinsmen Park
starting at 11:30 a.m. I hope to see you
there.
Don’t forget to come downtown for
“Stampede Jammin,” three days of open
mic at three downtown venues during
the Stampede starting Aug. 3. Come on
down and show everyone what you’ve
got.
I was honoured to be asked to serve
as parade marshall this past weekend at
Langdon Days. Mother Nature blessed
us with a stop to the rain, and as al-
ways, the whole town showed up. We
buy more candy every year and we still
run out! Thanks to the Hopp family
from Legacy Ranch for the wagon and
the beautiful horses. Mike and Linda
Hopp are continuing a family tradition
as teamsters. Grandfather Art Hopp, 89
years young, still drives his own team.
Look for the Hopps and many other
teams at Pioneer Acres, a short drive
away in Irricana, for Pioneer Acres’ 50th
Anniversary Aug. 9-11. This year’s theme
is Horses and Horse Drawn Equipment.
There will be dozens of teams there,
“Where History Comes Alive,” celebrat-
ing Alberta’s rich equine heritage.
Speaking of horses, it was great to see
many of you at the Dalroy Gymkhana
this past Sunday.
When we read about opposition to
pipelines, we should always ask our-
selves: “Who benefits?” By forcing Al-
berta to sell at a discount to the U.S.,
we are benefitting U.S. energy interests
at our expense. But there is another
side to this story. Numerous studies
have shown that pipelines are the saf-
Times CORRECTION
In the story “Reds alumni bring trophy home” in the July 19, 2019 issue of the
Strathmore Times, it incorrectly stated the Strathmore Reds Alumni are a softball
team, when in fact they are a baseball team. The Strathmore Reds Alumni baseball
team won the 2019 Alumni Border Wars tournament on July 12-13, to bring the trophy
home and to tie up the four-year rivalry tournament.
We apologize for any confusion this may have caused.

Volunteering with Red Cross

Continued from Page 1
“No country or jurisdiction can han-
dle huge scale disasters without the
help of outside agencies, countries
and NGO’s (non-governmental or-
ganization). We in Canada have been
historically subject to high winds and
flooding, and have potential for disas-
ter in many parts,” said Freeman. “Pop-
ulations here and around the world
are living and doing business in areas
that are subject to these occurrences,
and disasters are resulting and help is
being sent to assist on a regular basis.”
He added that the everyday tech-
nology, infrastructure, health systems,
financial stability, safety and security
enjoyed in Canada is often taken for
granted and the “impact of a disaster
will have a deeper, longer lasting im-
pact on areas or countries made more
vulnerable by not enjoying the same
standards of living as we do.”
Because of that, Freeman said he
believes it is important for people to
volunteer in any way possible to help
make the world a better place, wheth-
er that is by picking up litter, volun-
teering their time towards something
they feel strongly about or by financial
contributions to those efforts.
Great-nephew to local legend, con-
servationist and volunteer George
Freeman, who died in November 2017,
Freeman was taught by his great-uncle
to “leave things better than you find
them” and that “if you love what you
do, you will never work a day in your
life.”
He noted his uncle George set a
great example for all the Freemans
to do what they love and to make the
world a better place.
“There is no too little or too much
for us to do as an individual when it
comes to making the world a better
place, locally or globally,” said Free-
man. “Each of us can make a differ-
ence.”

“PD” marks 25 years at Lord of All Lutheran
BRAD EVERETT
Times Contributor
Pastor Dawn Nelson, a well-recog-
nized fixture in Strathmore, recently
celebrated her 25 years at Lord of All
Lutheran Chuch.
“Being here for 25 years says more
about the congregation than the pas-
tor,” said Nelson (better known in the
community as PD), reflecting on her 25
years of service.
Nelson and the congregation marked
the 25th anniversary on July 14 with
Sunday worship and an afternoon of
activity that was attended by over 200
people from the church and the com-
munity. Pastor Garnett Leach presided
over a rite in the service where Nel-
son and the congregation renewed the
vows of service and support that were
exchanged at her installation service 25
years earlier.
“It was special to be able to have the
man who was my pastor when I was
eight years old, take part in this ser-
vice,” said Nelson.
Leach was serving Hope Lutheran
Church in northwest Calgary then,
which happened to be at the end of
the street where Nelson was living with
her family. Over the years, occasional
attendance became more regular and
when she was looking for an oppor-
tunity to become more involved in the
church a young adult, Leach had a job
for her working with youth. She was
employed full time as a nurse but took
a year off to do youth work. In that
time, she started think about going into
the ministry.
“It was then that I had the sense
there was more God wanted me to do,”
she said.
Nelson returned to nursing in Calgary
briefly before entering Lutheran Theo-
logical Seminary in Saskatoon in 1985.
Four years later, she graduated with a
Master of Divinity degree and took her
first call to St. Peter’s Lutheran Parish,
serving congregations in Wadena and
Margo, Sask., 200 kilometres east of
Saskatoon.
“The first call was a city kid to the
country, and I loved it,” said Nelson.
Her experience in those rural Sas-
katchewan parishes was excellent, but
with her father’s health changing, Nel-
son wanted to be closer to her family in
Calgary. So, after four years there, she
started looking for a new call closer to
home.
In 1994, Lord of All Lutheran Church
in Strathmore was a nine-year-old mis-
sion congregation supported by its de-
nomination, the Evangelical Lutheran
Church in Canada. In that time, it was
served by part-time pastors, interns and
a couple of short-term ministries, but
by 1994 the congregation was ready to
take a leap of faith.
Plans were in place for a new church

days earlier, it was such a blessing to
be able to celebrate something that
was important to him and to experi-

As her ministry moves on, Nelson
says the best part of her weeks are
when she can make a positive dif-
ference in one person’s life, and the
toughest are when she is unable to

future holds but I know who holds the Duty Free
future.”

previously discussed, these were very labour intensive, and

would irrigate a quarter section at a time.
Gordon’s first memories were walking around with a spade
and a tarp, digging ditches, then placing the tarp across the
ditch at appropriate locations to form a dam for flood irriga-
tion. In 1976 they purchased their first pivot which is still
in use today. In the 1980s, they bought two new pivots, and
with the wheel moves, are able to provide sufficient irriga-
tion. They took advantage of elevation changes by burying
the pipeline to provide pressured water to irrigate with.
The future of irrigation will see the canals, where pos-
sible, replaced with pipelines, which will eliminate seepage,
evaporation and waste, and be more efficient.

U13 Spurs take bronze at provincials

JANET KANTERS
Times Editor
The Strathmore Spurs U13 Tier IV team won bronze
at provincials last weekend.
In the Servus Youth Tier IV City Provincial Cham-
pionships, 46 teams representing seven districts from
across the province vied for the top spot in their divi-
sion between July 19-21.
According to team coach Ryan Parkins, the provin-
cial tournament, hosted by the Alberta Soccer Asso-
ciation, represents a huge contingency of teams re-
gionally. The Spurs were playing in the category that
included eight teams within Tier IV.
“We played four games in total, winning three out of
those four,” said Parkins. “The only game we lost was
to the eventual winners of the provincials overall.”
The Spurs finished second in Group C. The first of
each group played for gold and silver, while the sec-
ond finishers in each group played for bronze.
“We played North Wind (Lacoursiere) for the
bronze,” said Parkins. “It was a hard-fought battle, but
we ended up winning that final game 4-3. It was very
back and forth – at one point, they were 3-2.”
Parkins is proud of the team’s effort this year, espe-
cially given the ages of some of the players.
“We had a very young team going in. Our players
are as young as eight years old playing in the U13 di-
vision. It’s quite the feat for them,” he noted. “We have
a good mix of age and a good mix of skills in terms
of playing.”
The Spurs U13 team was also the only mixed team
in their competition. Although they are technically
slotted in the boy’s league, it’s allowed to have girls
on the team “because we don’t have enough female
players to field an all-girl team.
“We have a couple of young ladies on our team who
did a really great job representing young ladies in
sport,” said Parkins.
“All in all, the team really came together over the
season and certainly proved themselves as a force to
be reckoned with. So, we’re really proud of them for
working together.”

Spurs U11 take

city championship
JANET KANTERS
Times Editor
The Strathmore Spurs U11 boys’
team were the victors at the Final Four
City Championship last weekend.
Part of the Tier V Competitive team
in the Calgary Minor Soccer Associa-
tion, the Spurs went into the champi-
onships as the number one seed after
a very successful season – they went
3-1 in their exhibition season, fol-
lowed by a 6-0 record in their regular
season.
“Considering the mix of players that
our team had, with only a few veterans
of competitive soccer, and even some
newcomers to the sport, the season
was an overwhelming success,” said
coach Tomas Rochford. “However, the
ultimate prize was the league cham-
pionship.”
In their first game on Saturday
morning ( July 20), the Spurs played
against the fourth seed, EMFC Energy,
and despite missing some key players
and losing one of their best defenders
to injury during the game, they were
victors by a score of 8-1.
This set up a final on Sunday morn-
ing against the one team in their
league that had beaten them (during
exhibition play), the Royal West Cru-
zeiro. Starting strong right from the
kickoff, the Spurs jumped out to a 5-1
lead at half. Keeping up the pressure
through the second half, while losing
another player to injury, they battled
hard to an eventual 8-4 victory.

YEREX,
Gladys Klassen
Gladys Klassen Yerex passed away
peacefully on Friday, July 19, 2019, at
the Peter Lougheed Centre in Calgary,
AB with her close friend and caregiver Lori Watt at her
side. Her funeral service will be held on Saturday, July
27, 2019, at 11:00 a.m. at the Strathmore Alliance
Church with Pastor Bob Voth officiating.
Gladys was born at Beaver Flat, SK on August
28,1932 to Abram and Margaretha Klassen – the
youngest of twelve children. She attended Friesen
School. Along with her family, she was at home in the
Turnhill Mennonite Brethren Church. After graduating
in 1954 from Millar Memorial Bible Institute, Pamb-
run, SK she began a missionary career in India, only
to be invalided home in 1959 with severe rheumatoid
osteoarthritis. She spent the next 18 years in East Ta-
was, Michigan before returning to Swift Current, SK.
In February 2000 she married her former Bible School
teacher, widower Art Yerex. Art and Gladys made their
home in Strathmore, Alberta. In January 2017 they
moved into the AgeCare Sagewood Seniors Commu-
nity there.
Gladys was predeceased by her parents, Abram &
Margaretha Klassen; her siblings, David (Lydia), Elsie
(Herman) Klassen, Ed (Luella), Katie (Dan) Klaassen,
Linda, Ernie (Erma), Frank, Helen (Graham) Woth-
erspoon, and Archie (Frances). She is survived by
her siblings, Susanna Fortman, Ruby (Al) Kleps, and
sisters-in-law Helen and Olga Klassen, and by many
nieces, nephews and their families. Gladys’ beloved
husband Art passed away on July 12, 2018, at age
101, survived by his children Darcy and Retalee (Den-
nis) and their families.
Gladys was characterized by implicit faith in Jesus
Christ, and her life reflected His love and grace to
all. Outstanding among her many noble traits was
the dignified way in which she carried her terrible,
crippling disease without bitterness or complaint.
To spend an hour at her side would have you com-
ing away impressed by her contentment, humour,
and her interest in and love for you. While her family
and friends mourn her loss they are relieved that her
suffering is over and that she is now with Jesus, “to
whom she belonged and whom she served” (adapted
from St. Paul’s words in Acts 27:23).

Toll at the age of 51 on Wednesday June 19th, 2019.
Shannon leaves behind her loving husband Craig, and
her three beautiful children Alex, Kassi and Matthew.
Shannon was the beloved daughter of Raymond and
Patricia (Davies) Robusky and amazing sister to Al-
lan (Sally) and treasured aunt to Lara, Rory and Ava
Robusky. She will be deeply missed by Craig’s family
and her many friends as well. A celebration of her
life was held at Lord of All Lutheran Church on Friday
June 28th at 11 a.m. located at 112 - Lakeside Blvd,
Strathmore, Alberta. A reception followed after. In lieu
of flowers, we kindly request that donations are made
in Shannon’s name directly to the Heart and Stroke
Foundation (#200, 119-14th St. NW, Calgary, AB,
T2N 1Z6) or to the family. To leave your condolences
please visit www.wheatlandfuneralhome.ca.
