MLA, Jason Hale confrmed that
he is the Energy Critic for the op-
position.
I have been involved in the oil-
feld industry, so I think it is a good
ft. It is a big job, but I am looking
forward to it, said Hale.
He said that some of the big issues
to tackle are those involving pipe-
lines and the oil sands, which also
have federal involvement. He thinks
Albertas energy position needs to
be defended.
With every new energy project
there is going to be environmental
impacts. We have to ensure that the
companies are doing that within the
guidelines that are set out by the en-
vironment, said Hale.
He said he wants to work in the
legislature to inform Albertans, Ca-
nadians and the world about what
is happening in the energy industry.
He feels the oil sands are getting a
bad reputation.
People need to be educated and
understand exactly what is hap-
pening. There are environment re-
straints and guidelines that have to
be met. I have requested a meeting
with Ken Hughes who is the energy
minister. I want to work together
with him and the PC government.
We are there to represent the people
of Alberta and I am here to repre-
sent the people of my constituency
along with that. We need to work
together. Hopefully, they will use
some of our ideas and create com-
mon goals for Albertans, said Hale.
Hale is currently setting up his
constituency offces, but is having
trouble fnding space in Strathmore.
If anyone can help with that prob-
lem, or has any concerns, reach
him at jason.hale@assembly.ab.ca or
strathmore.brooks@assembly.ab.ca
or call (403) 362-6973. He also posts

A baby bottle fundraiser to
build a pregnancy centre in
Strathmore began on Moth-
ers Day and will wrap up
on Fathers Day. Chairman of
the Calgary Pregnancy Centre
and lead pastor of the Strath-
more Alliance Church (SAC),
Darrell Young is spearhead-
ing the project.
The SAC is a pick up and
drop off point for baby bot-
tles, which will be flled with
donations. Some other Chris-
tian churches in the commu-
nity are participating as well.
The Strathmore Pregnancy
Centre would be a sister or-
ganization of the Calgary
Pregnancy Centre and pro-
vide guidance and support to
people expecting a child. The
organization, which is run
on Christian principles, does
not provide medical services
for pregnancy and is pro-life,
Young said. Non-Christians
and those considering abor-
tion will still be encouraged
to use the centre, Young said,
adding that the purpose of
the centre is to assist people
with their pregnancy, not dis-
criminate.
We want to help. Anybody
is welcome, said Darrell
Young.
The basis of the centre will
be trained volunteer counsel-
lors who will work with men
and/or women who need as-
sistance relating to a pregnan-
cy. Counsellors will listen and
provide advice, mentorship,
and help clients access other
pregnancy-related services.
Youngs daughter Kayla,
Carmen Lefebvre is excited for the launch of
the summer reading program. Co-ordinators are
needed to help get things off the ground.

Strathmore Municipal Library
seeks summer co-ordinators for reading program
Rebecca FRiesen
Times Contributor
The Strathmore Municipal Library is
launching its annual summer reading
program this June and the library is cur-
rently looking for co-ordinators to take
on this project.
The Childrens Summer Reading Pro-
gram runs for two months in the sum-
mer and requires two co-ordinators to
plan, organize, advertise, and run the
program, from June 4 to August 31.
The program is designed to help kids
of all ages to keep up their reading skills
over the summer by introducing reading
in new, fun ways.
The idea of the summer reading pro-
gram is its a way to keep kids reading,
said Carmen Lefebvre, assistant director
of Library Services.
A lot of children will lose some of their
reading skills over the summer months,
and the library has devised a program
to keep kids interested in reading while
making it interesting and exciting for
them.
While the program isnt solely based
on reading, it is designed to keep chil-
dren reading throughout the summer
through the use of prizes, challenges,
games and other activities.
The programs details arent fnalized,
but Lefebvre says that the children will
be split into age groups and assigned
time slots in the morning or afternoon.
Were looking for someone who is
strongly organized, Lefebvre says. Re-
sumes will be accepted until May 25, and
then as soon as the co-ordinators are
hired they have to hit the ground run-
ning because the program starts June 4.
Within that two weeks they need
to start advertising the program, they
need to be co-ordinated to go out to the
schools, Lefebvre explains. The co-ordi-
nators have to be open and willing to
get donations from the public, as well as
present the idea to many schools. Open-
minded, outgoing, friendly applicants
are always well-received Lefebvre says.
We like to give [this program] to our
co-ordinators and say, this is yours, make
it yours.
Lefebvre said the Library tends to hire
people who are going to school for edu-
cation or library programs, therefore this
job will give them a hands-on experi-
ence.
It honestly really brings out a lot in
who saw the need for a cen-
tre in Strathmore, suggested
the project.
There are mothers who are
travelling to Calgary to use a
pregnancy centre, which is
part of the need for one in
Strathmore, said Young.
A steering committee has
been formed for the project
and money raised from the
fundraiser will go toward
costs involved with starting
up a new centre in Strath-
more.
The steering committee
expects the project to take
about two years to get up and
running. The group hopes to
build connections with other
organizations in the area that
provide services related to
pregnancy and is not out to
compete with anyone, Young
said.
Contact Young at the SAC
for more information about
the project, to pick up a bot-
tle to collect donations or to
simply donate directly.
the persons character, said Lefebvre,
its a very good character building pro-
gram.
The position is grant-funded and all
applicants must have been in school full-
time at some point during the previous
12 months.
We want anybody who comes into
this role, we want them to just make it
their own, Lefebvre says, there is so
much they can do.

The Hamlet of Langdon does not have
its own supermarket yet but it can boast
of a brand new school.
Named after the frst person to teach
in Langdon, the Sarah Thompson School
of Rocky View Schools (formerly the
Sarah Thompson Elementary School)
is ready to start classes in September
2012.
The Sarah Thompson elementary
school will serve grades K to 4 for the
region on the east side of Main Street,
while Langdon School will continue
serve grades K to 9, including the stu-
dents in grades K to 5 on the west side
of the Main Street.
The school will welcome Grade 5 stu-
dents in the fall of 2013. The school was
built to accommodate 450 students, said
Angela Spanier, director of communica-
tions for Rocky View Schools.
Im so excited we are opening a new
school, said Rocky View Schools trust-
ee Bev LaPeare. We drastically needed
one.
My daughter will no longer be in a
school with Grade 9s. It was a big age
difference, said Natacha Brownlee.
In spite of the good news, Langdon
parents are concerned about a few
things: the absence of a playground,
school portables and sidewalks.
I appreciate the Grade 5s are com-
ing only in 2013 as my son is already
at the Langdon School. But there is a
lack of foresight in the planning, said
Chantelle Everett. It baffes me (that)
we dont have a playground when we
know childhood obesity is such a prob-
lem.
LaPeare said the government of Al-
berta does not provide for playgrounds.
The government provides only the
school and 10 metres of ground beyond
it as well as the sidewalk directly in
front of the building.
The government provides a place
to learn but not a place to play and
grow, said parent and volunteer Shel-
agh Phelps.
When the Langdon School was built
it did not have a playground. It was
thanks to the efforts of the community
that the Langdon School got its play-
ground in June 2010. At the time, lo-
cal businesses loaned three Bobcats,
gravel was obtained at a discount and
concrete was donated, said Phelps. En-
cana Corporation, the Alberta Lottery
Fund, Compton Petroleum Corporation,
Rocky View Schools and Rocky View
County provided the funding.
Thanks to funding by the major do-
nors and the communitys efforts, the
playground at Langdon School was
built at a cost of about $300,000 instead
of about $400,000, said Phelps.
Its a lot of cookies at a bake sale if
we had to make up the difference, said
Phelps.
To simplify and speed up the process
of building playgrounds, LaPeare said
Rocky View Schools now use a cata-
logue of pre-approved playground de-
signs and contractors.
The community wont have to worry
about liability and insurance. It will just
have to worry about the fundraising.
The pre-approved contractors will do
such things as stripping the topsoil, ex-
cavating, compacting and pouring the
concrete, while donated services will
still be allowed for the installation of
the playground apparatus.
Theres a misconception out there
that donated services will not be used
anymore. They will, said LaPeare.
Remaining funds will be donated
back to the school councils society.
As for school portables though they
were hot in spring and cold in winter,
said Everett, the portables were none-
theless essential to the Langdon School.
LaPeare said 10 school portables cur-
rently in use at Langdon School will be
moved to areas in more crisis in the
school district. LaPeare knows the Lang-
don area will continue to grow, and in
three years its expected these school
portables will be returned to Langdon.
LaPeare could not comment on the
cost of moving school portables.
Its a constant juggling act to man-
age accommodation priorities, said La-
Peare.
New school comes with some headaches
for Langdon residents
Despite the inclement weather, the Spark Rally was still held in Strath-
more on May 5. There were 98 Sparks who attended the event com-

pating in games and activities.

Daisy Recycling out of Standard believes its
important to give back to the communities that
support their business. Relay for Life committee
members in Strathmore were presented with a
$250 cheque (which is a portion of the proceeds
from the frst quarter of 2012s refundable recy-
cling) from Lin and Jamie Walker, owner/opera-
tors of Daisy Recycling.
The Walkers have been involved with the Relay
for Life for many years and this year marks the
10th anniversary of Lins survival from ovarian
cancer, which makes this a much more personal
event for her.
Relay started in Strathmore in 2005. Some of
the committee members have been on since its
inception, some are brand new and some are re-
turning members. Their goal this year is to have
20 teams registered for the event. Currently there
are 15 teams signed up and their fnancial goal
is to raise $100,000. A majority of the funds go
directly to the Canadian Cancer Society, as most
of the costs incurred are local and are covered
through sponsorship and donations.
Those who feel the need to contribute to the
cause this year may do so by dropping off their
own refundable items at the Strathmore Bottle
Depot designated to the Green Berets team. For
more information or to help sponsor the team
contact the group at (403) 542-2733.

When someone dies, or is seriously ill, there
can be a two different types of relatives who
come out of the woodwork. The caring, support-
ive family members, and... the vultures.
Strathmore High School (SHS) drama students
are currently rehearsing for their upcoming per-
formance, Daddys Dyinwhos got the will?
It was just a play I came across. I always read
a lot of plays over summer so that I have sort of
a handful to choose from and then I see what
the class is like, and thats how I kind of decide
what play well do, said drama teacher Paula
Richardson.
The scene is set in 1986 in Lowake, Texas
where a family is preparing for the death of the
father. The mother had died a few years earlier,
and the children have come because they know
dad doesnt have much time left.
The vultures, who have also come home, heard
that the fathers will had recently been changed,
and they are trying to fnd it before he passes
away in hopes of changing it if they dont agree
with it.
It is a hilarious show it really is. Even though
it has that other sentimental side to it, it has won-
derfully funny moments, said Richardson.
Its funny, one of the comments most of the
students made when we frst read the play was,
I have family members like this, it had that ele-
ment to it where they could all relate to some
part of it.
The play is sure to get a lot of laughs, but is
not appropriate for children under 12, said Rich-
ardson.
Richardson has also had student teacher Deb-
bie Wilson from the University of Calgary doing
her practicum at SHS, who she says has been
invaluable to her. The actors themselves are full
of energy, and excited about the play.
They are extremely excited about it, they re-
ally like it. They like the fact that they get to use
accents and the cool thing about this play is its
written with the accent, said Richardson.
The payoff for a teacher, and I say this so of-
ten, is just having the kids buy in, having them
invest in it, having them take these huge risks.
They are stepping so far out of their com-
fort zone, and theyre going through, or creat-
ing characters that they never thought they could
create so thats very exciting.
The show runs nightly June 3 to 5 at 7 p.m.
Tickets are $10 at the door or can be ordered in
advance by calling the school at 403-934-3135.

What to Know About a Home Inspection
Physical home inspections are an important part of the
home buying / home selling process as well as for ongo-
ing property maintenance. A perfect home does not exist.
Fortunately most of the problems are minor and they are all
repairable. However, you need to be aware of the problems
if you are to make in informed decision. Part of our man-
date is to ensure that you receive an objective, professional
inspection, free from conficts of interest. Home Inspectors
work for the home buyer, not the real estate agent. We do
not recommend companies involved in the construction or
renovation business and are unbiased and objective.
As of September of 2011, all Home Inspectors in Alberta
were required to have provincial certifcation.

Parliamentary Report
Last week marked the anniversary of
the May 2, 2011 Federal Election that
elected our Conservative government
with a majority of the votes on the foor
of the House of Commons. Prime Min-
ister Stephen Harpers address to our
National Conservative Caucus last week
on the frst anniversary of the election
was truly encouraging.
He reminded us that the Canadian
electorate supported our Conservative
government by electing us to a third
mandate to build on our efforts since
2006 and continue to secure Canadas
prosperity. In fact, Canadians delivered
a majority to the Conservative Party in
the wake of unprecedented global eco-
nomic turmoil because, as the Prime
Minister said, We addressed the dark
clouds of their anxiety - we are the only
party in this country with a serious
workable economic plan.
Many of us recall the high-level of
concern that Canadians were feeling a
year ago. We were hoping that efforts
in nations around the world would se-
cure a global economic recovery. Yet,
we knew that the reports were not
positive on the economic performance
of the United States our largest trad-
ing partner by far, Europe; and other
nations. The Prime Minister said our
Conservative Party was the one party
that addressed the anxieties of inves-
tors, Canadian workers and taxpayers.
We had concrete policy proposals in
the last election that were not extrava-
gant promises or pie-in-the-sky propo-
sitions, as the Prime Minister described
what the Opposition parties were offer-
ing during the election campaign.
Prime Minister Stephen Harper re-
newed our commitment to keeping
Canada prosperous and on the right
side of history as global economic un-
certainty persists. Our government con-
tinues to work hard to increase Cana-
das exports. We have always been an
exporting nation and this is most clear-
ly seen in our province of Alberta.
Most recently, we have taken mea-
sures to streamline the environmental
review process that had been hijacked
with off-shore funding by foreign inter-
ests. Canada must be able to make de-
cisions on large infrastructure projects
like the Northern Gateway pipeline. In
2010, Canadas natural resource sectors
employed more than 760,000 workers
across the country. Canadas mining
and energy sectors alone represent 10
per cent of the Canadian economy and
40 per cent of our exports. In the next
10 years, more than 500 new projects
representing over $500 billion in new
investments will be proposed. The po-
tential for job growth is enormous.
Budget 2012 delivers modest but
meaningful spending reductions to
help balance the federal budget in the
medium-term without raising taxes.
Our government is reforming Canadas
immigration system to get more skilled
workers into the workforce where and
when they are needed. We have secured
First year anniversary for conservative majority government
an agreement with the provinces on
health care for the next fve years.
As the government, we will try to
seize the opportunities presented to
our country in the global market so we
can secure economic prosperity for fu-
ture generations of Canadians. As we
secure economic prosperity for our
workers and families, Canada will be
able to continue to compete with other
economies in the future.

cerns regarding this or previous col-
umns you may write me at 4945-50th

From the offce of
Kevin SorenSon
Kevin Sorenson, Member of Parlia-
ment for Crowfoot, is encouraging or-
ganizations that work to promote the
well-being of local senior citizens to ap-
ply for federal funding.
As our Member of Parliament, I can
report that over the years this program
has served Seniors in our riding. We
have successfully applied before: it
works for us.
The 20122013 call for proposals
for community-based projects under
the New Horizons for Seniors Program
launched on May 8 for all provinces and
territories. Organizations can receive up
to $25,000 in funding per year by ad-
dressing one or more of the programs
fve objectives: volunteering, mentoring,
expanding awareness of elder abuse,
social participation and capital assis-
tance.
It is important to provide meaning-
ful programs and activities involving se-
niors, says Sorenson. This is just one
more way we can help support organi-
zations in their goal to promote and sup-
port the quality of life of Canadian se-
niors. Over the years, the New Horizons
for Seniors Program has established a
legacy helping local seniors put their
experience to use through volunteerism
and mentorship at the grassroots level
in communities large and small.
The application deadline for commu-
nity-based projects is June 29.

Fule for Thought
My purposes for these columns were that I want-
ed people to smile, maybe laugh, and possibly be
affected by some of my experiences. Ive always
felt that its important to be able to laugh at myself,
and to not take myself too seriously. Thats why
Ive been trusting you with some of my most em-
barrassing moments! That brings me to the Sum-
mer of 1976!
That Summer, I had gotten a job with my friend
Dave, as a caretaker at the Banff Centre. There
were many cleaning jobs, conference set-ups, and
heavy furniture moving.
The afternoon of our frst day on the job was a
scorcher. It was sunny, hot, and Dave and I were
given an outside job. We were to take two buck-
ets of hot water mixed with vinegar, a razor blade
device, and scrape all the paint spots off the outer
window of an Art Studio window. All the way to
this studio, Dave and I grumbled about what a
crappy job we got stuck with, and how wed be out
in the blistering sun ALL afternoon! We got to the
deck outside the studio with our gear and began
to scrape. After about two minutes, Dave turned to
me and said, do you see what I see?
I said I did, and we began to feel grateful to our
boss what a good guy he was thoughtful.
To our surprise we were scraping paint spots off
a window to a studio, with nude female models!!
Now, when youre a 16 year-old-boy, THIS is good
news!
We worked hard all afternoon, and thought we
were being discreet. However, the head of the Art
Faculty did come out a couple of times to ask if
we really worked there! At the end of our shift, we
cleaned up the supplies and headed back to the
caretakers offce.
Our boss was smiling, and asked if our after-
noon went well! We all had a laugh, and I never
forgot that frst day on the job (I dont think the
Art instructor did either probably not his mod-
els, as well)!
Later that same summer, Dave and I were giv-
en the job of getting fve large, wooden bulletin
boards up to the sixth foor of one of the build-
ings. Now you know me by now, I was sure there
was an easier way to get these monstrosities up to
that foor. Then, a fash of brilliance hit me (or it
was the cafeteria chili?).
I thought, instead of carrying each and muscling
them in the elevator, why not just go on the bal-
cony with a rope, and PULL them up, one by one?
It seemed smart, so we got rope and tied our frst
bulletin board by one its legs.
We began the process of pulling it up to the bal-
cony. You know those old Bugs Bunny cartoons,
where (again) the coyote does something similar,
and of course, the rope frays and unwinds? Funny
thing, but thats what happened to Dave and me!
We looked at the unwinding rope, then each other,
back to the rope, until it fnal came undone! We
had gotten it to about the fourth foor when it un-
ravelled. We looked down over the balcony railing
to see the wooden bulletin board hit the ground. It
smashed, and splintered, and one of its legs went
through a ground-level window! Again, Dave and I
looked at each other, then down, in time to see our
boss walking up the road to check on us! He was
smoking it looked like he almost swallowed the
cigarette! But, after a pause, we could see that he
was laughing and shaking his head. We werent
going to be fred after all! From then on, we made
sure we did things HIS way!
By the end of summer, I had bought my frst
car, a little two door Toyota. On the Labour Day
weekend, I took a date ( yes, she was alive, and
no she WASNT infatable!) to the old Cinema
Park Drive-In.
Now for those of you youngsters out there, a
drive-in was where you took your car to an outside
theatre, hooked up a crappy speaker to the win-
dow, and MAYBE watched the movie. Near the end
of the date, we were ready to leave. You know those
happy, little cartoons they used to play, about the
concession, and rules for the Drive-in? Well, I had
watched one about making sure to hang up the
speaker on its pole before leaving. As we pulled
away, there was a huge BANG noise! I looked all
around, and then to my horror, realized I had still
had the speaker on my window! The window and
car were fne, but I had killed that poor, innocent
car speaker. Embarrassed, I hung it back up, and
drove slowly away I dont think we ever had a
second date Ive always wondered why.
Later that Halloween, Dave and I were in a car
accident in that same Toyota. We had minor inju-
ries, but the car was demolished. My parents took
me out of school the next day to drive them to
Calgary for Christmas shopping. I was so mad, I
had just had a frightening accident, and they were
making me drive in Calgary? My dad said that I
was not going to be scared to drive, and I had to
get RIGHT back behind the wheel. It was a tough
lesson, and I was mad, but it was a smart thing to
do. I got over the fear of the accident, and (knock
on wood) havent been in one SINCE 1976! Parents
DO have a way of teaching us kids, after all. So,
1976 was a strange year, with laughter, embarrass-
ment, and a near-death experience. It was defnite-
ly a memorable year!

Letters to the editor
To the Editor
There has never really been much of a time in my life
that I actually felt enough of a push behind my back
to make me honestly consider writing into the paper.
Any paper. Perhaps that comes from my youth and still
having the absent mindset that news is something the
older generation relates too. But with all things, times
change. With that simple notion, we all know change is
big, small, scary and great.
This isnt a letter that is concerning the pass election
or anything that may seem like its worth reading over.
Rather this is something of praise and recognizing that
a lot of employees of this town are greatly overlooked.
Then again, I suppose a lot of business do such a thing.
Workers are the grease in the clogs that make almost
every business successful or not work.
Everyone works but not everyone receives credit
where its so appropriately due.
So I suppose that is what this is. A letter for an ap-
preciation to a couple of people that are settled on the
outer reaches of town, yes talking about some town
employees that are often forgotten. It may not seem
like its the biggest thing out there to go and give sup-
port to these select groups, but I certainly due feel its
needed.
Firstly how many people honestly know that the civ-
ic centre is operated by the Strathmore Family Centre
personal? I think it is roundly thought that the High
school, AG society or the swimming pool take care of
that facility. I was justly proven wrong with this. Attend-
ing a function a little while ago, I soon realized that
the Family Centre staff; are the ones who come over to
Giving credit where credit is due
bring things in. They get the chairs ready for however many, bring
tables in from a little white shed outside. I am not certainly why I
am so interested in learning such a thing, but I was nonetheless.
Either way, I realized that this certain staff is over looked a lot.
They not only maintain the Family Centre but are preparing the
Civic Centre for us all.
So in the end of this rather short and perhaps limited letter, I ex-
tend my thanks to this select staff alongside the other hard workers
of this town. The ones who are often overlooked and the ones who
are well known!

With camping season approaching fast, both vet-
eran and frst-time campers are eager to start en-
joying all that summer has to offer. But in the ex-
citement people often make simple mistakes that
can ruin a vacation.
Jesse Bastain, the owner of the online store Out-
door Pursuits Canada, says there are a few essen-
tials that all campers need to bring, whether youre
in an RV or a tent. Bastain says these are just the
basics for a frst-time camper, but are required
items for the more experienced camper.
Among the list is a sturdy fxed-blade knife,
fre starter, a frst-aid kid that includes bug repel-
lent and bug bite remedy, an axe and a fashlight.
Bastain said a para-cord (parachute cord) is one
of the most essential items when camping be-
cause of its wide variety of uses. From cooking to
clothing repair, the cords uses are virtually end-
less. All of these items, and more, can be found at
www.outdoorpursuitscanada.com.
Preparing to go camping can be a daunting task,
especially when taking an RV, and Darcy Ledene,
general manager of the Strathmore & District Agri-
cultural Society walks through the steps of setting
up an RV for a weekend camping trip.
I would check my propane levels, check my
cupboards... to make sure [everything] is secure
for travel, Ledene says. If water is not available
at the campsite, Ledene also says he would make
sure he had a suffcient supply and double-check
his black and grey tanks to make sure they were
empty.
Along with bringing items like screwdrivers,
tarps and frewood, Ledene also says it is impor-
tant to pack a variety of clothes as the weather can
really impact a camping trip.
Camping weather can change in a heartbeat,
Ledene cautions, and says to prepare for the best
and worst conditions.
Location can be just as important as the items
you bring camping with you, however.
The Strathmore Agricultural Grounds operates
365 days a year and is one of the few campsites
to offer year-round service, along with almost all
types of camping. There are many different ser-
vices available, including frewood and water.

Camping season is almost here, but are you ready?

Trying to manage your own marketing is hectic,
confusing and one false move can waste hours of
your time. Before setting up your account, and even
now while your account exists, can you say for sure
that each detail is flled out properly? Can you say
that you completely reviewed and understood your
policy and user agreement? One keystroke error
can cause major problems and not just for your busi-
ness but for all the surrounding business near your
location.
Recently I discovered why.
While trying to set up a social media account I
noticed I could not enter the address as Strathmore,
Alberta. The only option available was Strathmore,
Alabama. Frustrated I bypassed it by simply picking
Alabama and was hoping to correct the issue once
the account was confrmed.
After a painstaking four-hour journey through the
net trying to fx the problem and talking with the
social media network for help, I found one of the
problems, and it was much worse than I anticipated.
Because the majority of social media users located
in Strathmore I believe have encountered the same
problem and also bypassed it by entering Alabama.
Strathmore Alberta now looks like Strathmore, Ala-
bama in certain search queries and the eyes of soft-
ware running the accounts plus the maps that assist
in feeding them.
These engines do not understand why some resi-
dents and vendors are listed as Strathmore, Alberta
and others are listed as Strathmore, Alabama. The
engine reads and tries to offer the most obvious
choices to those setting up an account and those
searching for vendors and users. Strathmore itself
also becomes less recognizable and visible in search
results, directories, social media and many other
data management engines.
Many people use social media accounts to in-
crease their audience through paid advertisements.
If a vendor asks for the ad to be displayed outside
their friends list and existing followers and network
but the contact information is incorrect it would dis-
play to the wrong network, region and even country.
Who does it affect?
Vendors and consumers are both affected. The
search engine results may not display what the
consumer is looking for and the vender cannot be
found when location information is inaccurate.
How to fx it?
Anyone with a social media, directory listing ac-
count could recheck their settings. Even vendors
that list in free directories should be sure it says
Strathmore, AB not AL. If you are unable to change
the location to Alberta leave the location empty and
notify your account provider.
Keep in mind that engines and crawlers record
an image of your website, page, social media face
and more. Then use that information to draw new
visitors to their website, directory or engine. Like
a directory that fnds vendors to list such as Yel-
low pages. They may index your information once
continuously like Google or once a year, it may take
a while for these engines to re-record the correct
information.
Directories have a large audience and if they store
old information of the business, it also does not
show up in the appropriate search query. There is
more to this than I can continually list so I can only
stress the facts.
Seek advice from a professional website develop-
er! Not necessarily a Webmaster or marketer, I mean
a true developer that understands the programming
and the integrated marketing behind a website. A
website designer is a graphic artist, a website pro-
grammer creates your sites functionality and naviga-
tion, a website or online marketer understand the
many different ways to get a great rank for your
website or business listing and all the rules behind
that. A website developer, however, has the experi-
ence and the greater knowledge of all the above.
Speaking with a developer is always your best op-
tion.
Also please do not think this is an issue your so-
cial media provider can fx. It breaches the privacy
policy and it is up to the person signing up for the
account to fll it out correctly. By rights if you pro-
vide false information your account provider can
discontinue service which is very diffcult to rein-
state. These media accounts can provide amazing
free marketing for our businesses but it is up to us
to read our policy agreements and fll our informa-
tion out correctly. It takes a lot of work to maintain
these type of media engines, offering live tech sup-
port might not allow these services to be offered
for free?
I really hope we can come together on this and
make a difference for all Strathmore business long
term. I myself cannot optimize many of my clients
accounts until this begins to resolve. It damages
business productivity, but most importantly it can be
damaging for all the vendors in Strathmore to not be
visible to the consumers around them. Strathmore
is a great place to live and work, I hope we can all
work together to make this happen for the greater
good of Strathmore.

Actor and Playwright Randall Wiebe brought a
frst century Bible character into the 21st centu-
ry, on May 14 at the Hope Community Covenant
Church in Strathmore.
His one-man play was on Thomas the Doubter,
based on the disciple Thomas,
who followed Jesus. In the past,
Wiebe has played Jesus in the
Drumheller Passion plays.
Thomas is one of the disciples
that I relate to, said Wiebe .
He used only a chair and shawl
as props in the performance, uti-
lizing a very physical acting style.
He drew the audience into the
story by walking out to them and
asking them to respond to his
questions and be a part of the
story. The plot moved along the
travels of the disciples and their
witness of multiple miracles that
occurred along the way.
Even after witnessing and de-
livering miracles through their
time with Jesus, all the disciples
encountered doubt when Jesus
was taken and later crucifed.
Thomas makes the point that he
was the only one stuck through
time with the label of Doubter,
when in fact all the disciples questioned their
commitment because of the crucifxion. The fnal
scene shows Thomas placing his hands in the
wounds of the risen Jesus and his doubt turning
to belief, so much so that he carried on to found
a church in India.
The scene where he encounters Jesus after the
resurrection was one of the most amazing, dra-
matic, powerful scenes in all the Bible. I thought
that alone made it a worthwhile story to tell. As
I see it, unbelief comes about because people
dont face their doubts, arent honest about them,
or walk away because they are doubting and
then they never get the answers. Thomas is bold
about his doubt and he gets answers, said Wiebe.
Facts dont satisfy, they arent the be all-end all
to everything. You can search and search and ac-
cumulate the facts and technology
and everything else and still feel
empty and meaningless. It only
comes together with faith and be-
lief, said Wiebe.
There was a good audience re-
sponse to the play.
It was excellent. He is amaz-
ing. You dont realize what others
around Jesus might have felt, said
Donna Martynes.
I loved it. The story was from
a real persons perspective, said
Marjonne Eygenraam.
This was the fnal time that
Wiebe will be performing this
play. He had performed it in vari-
ous sites across North America,
Guam, Malaysia and Hawaii. He
donated all the gift offering to the
She Has A Name acting troupe,
who are doing a cross Canada
tour this year. The play is about
human traffcking and Wiebe
said eradicating human traffck-
ing is a cause he believes in. Putting on Thomas
the Doubter was one way he could contribute
to the other. The She Has A Name troupe are
looking for help in many areas, from supporting
their Fuel the Tour by donating money for gas,
to handing out fyers, to being ushers at the vari-
ous shows. For more info about opportunities
to help, check online at www.shehasaname.net.
She Has A Name appears next in Lethbridge.

With many people making the commute to the
city for work, and life just being busy in general,
it can be hard to take a minute to relax and get
to know your neighbours.
Which is why the Town of Strathmore is hoping
to host the Presidents Choice BBQ Town grand
prize event. The Grand prize is a BBQ event for
up to 5,000 people including family entertain-
ment, stage shows with Hedley as the headliner
and a chance to set a World Record. There will
also be $25,000 donated to Presidents Choice
Childrens Charity.
Strathmore and another 600 communities
across Canada were pre-selected for a chance to
win. There is a link on the Town of Strathmore
Facebook page that will take people to the PC
BBQ Town webpage. People can comment, giv-
ing the town an even better chance of being en-
tered in for the grand prize.
The more hits we get and the more comments
we get, brings us up higher and they take the
top 20 communities. Then out of those 20 (com-
munities) people vote on them, so we have to
get as many votes as we can on May 28, said
Jennifer Cuthbertson, administrative assistant for
the Town.
Voting begins on May 28 and will run until
June 11. There will be a vote button under each
communitys name, and only one vote per e-mail
is allowed per day.
There are nine secondary prizes available,
which are a BBQ for up to 2,000 people. As of
May 15, Strathmore was in 11th place. Residents
are encouraged to go to the Town of Strathmore
Facebook page to the link and leave a comment,
or go to www.pcbbqtown.ca.
From May 28 to June 11 dont forget to vote
daily for Strathmore to win the grand prize, and
bring the community together.

Gearing up for the camping season
Continued from Page 10
However, not all camp sites have these perks
included so it is important to do your research
before choosing a destination.
Kendra Van Dyk, a team leader of campgrounds
with Parks Canada, says it is important for people
to educate themselves about their planned des-
tination. Often campgrounds have websites that
can be visited to learn more about the rules and
regulations of their campsite, such as fre bans,
services available and other information such as
reservations.
A lot of campgrounds in the mountains are
not near stores to buy replacement equipment if
something important is forgotten or breaks. The
same applies to RV campers. They should ensure
that their RV is in good working condition, said
Van Dyk.
Camping in the mountains is beautiful and a nice
change of scenery, but with the benefts, campers
also have to be aware of sharing the space with
wildlife.
The most important thing that can be recom-
mended for campers concerned about wildlife is
to keep a bare campsite. So, whenever they are
not eating they should have all their food, gar-
bage, toiletries and cooking supplies stored away
in a bear proof container such as their vehicle, RV,
or in a food storage locker, Van Dyk said.
Researching the wildlife in the area is benefcial
so you can know how to best be prepared with
what you will be dealing with.
The essence of camping is to entertain yourself
and to get you out of the camper, Bastain adds,
suggesting a simple deck of cards can provide ad-
equate entertainment.
Ledene agrees, saying the biggest thing with
camping is to come with friends because camp-
ing is much more enjoyable with a group.

Keith Reynolds approached Wheatland County
Council to acquire funding for the new Strathmore
Seed Cleaning Plant through the Alberta Govern-
ment Capital Finance Association (ACFA) . The funds
are available through the Municipal Government Act.
The Co-op compared costs of borrowing from
various banks and Credit Unions and found that ac-
cessing funds from ACFA would result in consider-
able cost savings.
Banks have no problem in lending to us, said
Reynolds, who outlined the organizations assets.
By having the county apply for the funds and in-
vest them to the Co-op, the organization would save
approximately three per cent or $250,000 interest on
the $2.5 million request.
It is a very substantial saving for us, said Reyn-
olds.
Jennifer Deak, Chief Administrative Offcer for
the County, said if the money were awarded, the
County would have to advertise the request and give
the ratepayers an opportunity to give feedback on
granting the money and create a bylaw to award it.
Reynolds gave councillors a handout as to the assets
the Co-op had in regards to possible collateral avail-
able for the loan contract.
Balancing the Books
Deak asked council to look at the rates charged
for water plant maintenance in Rockyford and Hus-
sar. She said, according to the current contract, the
cost of service is greater than the rate charged.
We have to go with whats in the schedule, said
Deak, who suggested that the rates be changed to
refect the actual service costs.
The county must supply 30 days notice to any
rate change. Councillors suggested if the time sheets
submitted for payment showed work in excess of
the norm, that clarifcation is given for the cause of
the extended work. They asked Deak to draw up
a draft agreement to change the rates effective as
of July 1, 2012 and bring it back to council for ap-
proval.
charity funds awarded leys family
County of Wheatland councillors awarded the Ley
family $4,000 from the Hans Madsen Charity Fund.
Their daughter Danielle has Kleefstra syndrome and
requires special care. The family is also saving for a
trip to Texas, or the Netherlands, to meet Dr. Tjitske
Kleefstra and other families dealing with the syn-
drome. The funds were left in a bequest made by
Hans Madsen, who left funds to be used to help
crippled, ill or needy children of the area.
Board Members in place
County councillors have submitted the names of
people in their divisions who will sit on the Com-
munity Enhancement Fund Board. There were two
members from each division appointed. Council
will begin to refer various requests for funding to
the board after the frst organizational meeting, held
on May 29, 2012.
Paving tenders
There were seven tenders for the paving of RR
225 (2 miles) and the Nightingale road RR245 (6.25
miles). They were Brooks Asphalt and Aggregate,
Central City Asphalt, Riverside Construction, South-
rock Ltd. Better Border Paving, E Construction and
Larmen Construction Inc. The bids were close, rang-
ing between $3,299,508 and $3,811,340. Larmen
Construction Inc. won the tender and estimated
work would begin July 10 and fnish approximately
Oct. 15.
The bid comes about $1 million under estimated
cost, said Dave Churchill, Manager of Transporta-
tion and Infrastructure for the county.
He said the estimate was based on last years as-
phalt costs, which have decreased signifcantly. The
fact that Alberta Transportation tenders had not yet
been released also kept bids down.
dust control
Several ratepayers in the Lakes of Muirfeld by
Lyalta have asked the county to take dust control
measures on the north and east sides of Boundary
Road intersection close to town. They have concerns
about health and safety issues caused by the dust.
Residents suggested installation of additional sig-
nage to slow traffc.
We dont put signs up for dust. If it is a safety
issue, that is different, said Councillor Ben Arm-
strong.
Councillor Brenda Knight indicated that some
ratepayers in the affected area are questioning
what they are getting for their tax dollars as they
pay out of pocket for their own service costs. Coun-
cil asked that the Protection offcers check out the
intersection for safety concerns, and asked the Ad-
ministrative offcer to provide a rough estimate on
how much it would cost the county to implement
a countywide dust control program. The program
would look at rural address driveways and 1000-foot
road distance along each driveway. The information
will be brought back to council for discussion.
Dust control is always an issue, said Councillor
Knight.
develoPers need to adhere
to asP conditions
County councillors discussed the need for devel-
opers to adhere to the conditions of the contracts
associated with their new subdivision applications.
Developers must develop roads and pay offsite lev-
ies committed as part of their application approval,
even if the development occurs in stages. They gave
the example of Eagle Shores development, who
committed to 691 sites over three phases. The devel-
oper only wants to build a portion of the road and
pay offsite levies for 133 sites in the initial phase.
Eagle Shores must pay for 2.6 miles of paving and
road development prior to the approval of the sub-
division.
The developer has the sole cost of building the
frst road in the development, said Dave Churchill,
Manager of Transportation and Infrastructure.
If you said you were going to build a road, build
a road, said Councillor Ben Armstrong.
Staff had indicated the wording in the applications
has caused some confusion for developers.
We need to be a lot clearer to the developers
about what needs to be done, said Councillor Ken
Sauve.

ment Offcer Jennifer Brooks has submitted her re-

A committee has been formed to
undertake a new project in Standard.
Community members are coming to-
gether to bring Standard to a level
of excellence in aesthetics similar to
Communities in Bloom, as a starting
point from the ground up.
The Standard Beautifcation Com-
mittee is attempting to beautify the
Village of Standard by placing recycled
plastic self-watering planters on the
median on Main Street (The Broad-
way) and shrubs and perennial beds
at the signs on the north and south
entrances to the village.
They expect that about $5,000 will
be needed to purchase 10 2x2x6 plant-
ers, shrubs, soil, plants and solar lights
to get the project off the ground. They
will also attempt to decorate the plant-
ers in the off seasons when it is not
possible to have fowers.
The committee s hope is that par-
ticipation by the students and youth in
the community will help to instil pride
in the project. One young person has
already taken on the project. Sydni
Sundgaard just celebrated her eighth
birthday and in lieu of gifts she asked
her friends to donate money and get
gift certifcates from greenhouses in
and around the community for the
project. She explained to her Mom
that she received enough gifts from
family and that she wanted to do this
for her community. She raised $130
and handed her money over to Car-
ol McKay, organizer of the Standard
Beautifcation project, at the Spring
Concert. Both her parents (and grand-
parents) were impressed and proud of
her selfess act.
Lions President David Nielsen also
gave McKay a cheque in the amount
of $2500 on behalf of the Lions Club
of Standard for the project.
If you would like to consider invest-
ing in Standards beautifcation proj-
ect, cheques should be made payable
to the Village of Standard and forward-
ed to Carol McKay, Box 291, Standard,
Alberta, T0J 3G0. Please make note
on the cheques that the money is des-
ignated Standard Beautifcation Proj-
ect and upon request a Charitable
Tax Donation Receipt will be issued.
If you need more information, please
feel free to contact Carol McKay via e-
mail (keys88@efrehose.net).

The facts may be out of sight and out
of mind for many in our westernized so-
ciety, including that half of the worlds
population is living in poverty.
Looking a little closer at Uganda, Af-
rica, where over a million children are or-
phaned by AIDS, there are humanitarian
organizations working to build opportu-
nities in the small communities through-
out the country.
Holy Cross Collegiate student, Noah
Dollinger, 16, visited Uganda as a part of
the group of 11 from the Strathmore Full
Gospel Church, April 2-16. The group
was partnered with the organization
Hungry for Life in order to work with
Noahs Ark Childrens Ministry Uganda
(NACMU).
The humanitarian trips purpose in re-
gards to HFL was to aid in the construc-
tion of a vocational school in Mukono,
where subjects such as music, clothing,
textile, wood work and agriculture will
be promoted.
A majority of the trip was spent in the
NACMU compound in Mukono where
the vocational school is based. The com-
pound also contains a church, an orphan-
age, a medical centre and a farmhouse.
The group helped care for the children,
planned Sunday school lessons, prepared
Easter activities, and played with the kids.
The trip to Uganda was the frst time
Dollingers ever travelled outside of Can-
ada, and the initial experience of enter-
ing the country came with a huge cul-
ture shock.
As soon as you stepped off the plane,
all around you were people with auto-
matic guns. It was crazy to see how dif-
ferent everyone is, said Dollinger.
After getting settled and into a routine,
Dollinger said a typical day including
playing with the children and helping
work with the people. The group also
visited the city of Jinja, a wealthier area
of Uganda, visited the source of the Nile
River, and went on a two day safari.
Looking back over the trip, Dollinger
thought the most prominent memory
was when the group walked the kids
from school back to their homes in the
village.
We got to see how the kids lived, and
how poor they were and met their fami-
lies. A typical bedroom in our houses is
Creating
opportunity
in Uganda
pretty much a house for a family of fve
kids, said Dollinger.
Asked to compare people in Uganda
to people in Canada, Dollinger said the
most major difference was in attitude.
We have so much but, we want more
always. Were never really happy. They
have so little but they are always so hap-
py, there is something about them that
makes you happy always, said Dollinger.
Now that Dollinger is back in Canada,
he feels like he has a different perspec-
tive and particularly notices when stu-
dents are being wasteful.
I see people throwing out whole
lunches, why would you do that? And
then of course you see, oh my goodness,
I broke my phone, my life is over, but no
its not. You can go do other things, said
Dollinger.
The church group is looking to do an-
other humanitarian trip within the next
two years. If given the opportunity, Doll-
inger said he would defnitely want to go
again.
How crazy it was going there, all
of the kids are abandoned, abused, or-
phaned kids. Every time you walk you
have six or seven kids crawling on you
because they are so excited to see you,
said Dollinger.

all DeckeD out
Stain - you wouldnt want it on your clothes,
but on your outdoor wood dcor -
its a thing of beauti!
Before you get all decked out, though, there are two
simple secrets to a long-lasting fnish quality stain
and prep work. Together theyre a dynamic duo.
Without them, you might be doing your project again
next year.
We understand. Prep work is a bit like homework
benefcial but who wants to do it! However, since
90% of stain failure is due to lack of prep work, its
key. Here are the simple, easy steps to protect your
investment for a lifetime of enjoyment. If you are
working with a brand new surface, always check
moisture content to ensure that the wood has had
suffcient time to dry. If so, youve earned a pass all
the way to the Shiny is Out step! If the surface is not
new, you got it its step one for you!
To Strip or Not to Strip
Deep down, you know it! If your existing stain is 30%
to 50% peeling it is best to remove the coating and
start fresh. Natura Safe Strip effectively removes
stain and paint from both horizontal and vertical sur-
faces. And, unlike sanding, it will not grind existing
mildew deeper into the wood.
Green Clean
Your surface must be free from mildew, dirt and
grease. Mildew sometimes cannot be seen, but if not
removed it will cause the stain to peel. Assume its
there and treat the surface with Natura Mildew Off.
Next, remove grease and dirt with Natura Safe Prep.
By the way, while your surface is getting clean, the
environment is staying green. All Natura products
are formulated to be safe for the environment.
RaNDY
Get the Grey Out
Wood needs a good facial before staining. That grey
wood you want to cover up with stain is actually dead
wood fbres that are sitting on top on the wood. If not
removed, as soon as moisture penetrates, they, along
with your new stain, will lift. Remove greyed wood with
Natura Wood Prep or Wood Shield Wood Restorer.
Shiny is Out
Stains need to penetrate to be effective. New wood
will sometimes have sheen known as mill glaze, which
prevents stain from penetrating. Simply sand with 80
grit sandpaper or use Wood Shield Wood
Restorer.
Phew! Now that the prep work is done, its time to add
the beauty. Choose between a semi-transparent stain
which will allow the natural grain and characteristic
of the wood to show through, or a solid stain which
will penetrate the wood and highlight the texture of the
wood. Beauti-Tones Wood-Shield semi-transparent is
available in 60 colours and Wood-Shield solid can be
mixed in virtually any colour.
Manufactured in Canada by Home Hardware in a full
array of paints and stains, Beauti-Tone is sold exclu-
sively at Home Hardware, Home Hardware Building
Centre, and Home Building Centre stores. Consultant
with your local Canadas Paint Expert for the stain that
suits you, and your wood, best.

the 20th Century. Rockyford didnt ex-
ist at all at this time, and wasnt created
until 1913. But, there were coal mines
at Carbon, eight miles north, and at
Drumheller and Beiseker. All the vil-
lages and towns in this area were built
in the last century because of
the railroad, and as we know
are gradually disappearing
once again.
Merle was born on the
Marshman Farm in 1926. Ini-
tially, he attended Greyhurst
School, then spent the years
1941-1943 at the dormitory
in Drumheller, where he went to high
school. He has spent his whole life
working on his mixed farm of grain
and cattle, farming both his paternal
and maternal grandparents farmland.
In the mid-1940s, he started a feed-
lot with approximately 100 head of
cattle. These were purchased at auc-
tion in Calgary, then moved by train to
Rockyford and herded to the farm. In
the 1970s, the cattle expanded to 600
head!
Merle met his wife Verna, who was
teaching in Carbon, at a square dance.
They were married on 4th July 1953,
and this wedding produced three sons,
two daughters, seven grandchildren
and eight great-grandchildren. Verna
passed away from cancer in 1998.
Merles community activities have
included working with the board of
The Rosebud Seed Clean-
ing Plant for 19 years, being
a founding member of The
Rosebud Gas
Co-op, board member of
Rockyford United Church,
and The Rockyford Rural
Fire board. He was a mem-
ber of the Carbon Lions
Club, and caretaker and lineman for
rural telephones.
His sons, Lloyd, Dwayne and Ger-
ald now run the ffth generation farm.
Merle still lives in his house in Rocky-
ford, where he retired to with Verna in
1995. He advises the biggest changes
he has seen over the years have been
the move from horse drawn farm
equipment to mechanization, continu-
ous farming as opposed to summer fal-
low, the use of GPS with seeding and
harvesting equipment, and how physi-
cal labour has been replaced by mental
labour.

Merle Marshmans history is unique
as it begins with both his Mothers and
Fathers families, and their move to
Canada. Both families knew each other
before they moved, and they each pur-
chased land through the Calgary Colo-
nization Co. The Marshman homestead
became a century farm in 2009, and
the Leathart homestead will be one in
2013.
Merles grandfather, on his fathers
side was born in Miffin, Pennsylvania.
The Marshman family moved to Ded-
ham, Iowa (where Merles father was
born); and then to Roseburg, Oregon
for 17 years. In 1909, Merles father,
uncles and grandfather, took a team of
horses, one wagon, some farm machin-
ery and some furniture, and travelled
to Crossfeld by train. They used horse
and wagon to travel from Crossfeld
to the farm located 10 miles north of
where Rockyford now stands.
Merles grandfather on his mothers
side was born in Manchester, Wiscon-
sin in 1854, and moved to Charles
City, Iowa (where Merles mother was
born). The family then moved to The
Dakotas, and then to Tekoa, Washing-
ton in 1898, before arriving in Canada
in 1911. They lived on a farm south
of Carbon, before purchasing their
homestead near Redland in 1913. Win-
feld Marshman and Mildred Leathart
(Merles parents) were married in April
1913, near Carbon. Their frst home
may have been the frst duplex built in
the area. Winfeld and Mildred lived in
one half of the house, and the relatives
in the other half! They moved to their
own home in 1920.
Both families moved from the Ameri-
can mid-west to Oregon and Washing-
ton by wagon, quite possibly on The
Oregon Trail. One can only imagine
this travel by wagon in those days be-
fore the mechanization introduced in

Stage combat can be tough to master, but is also something that can really add to
a performance. As part of the drama curriculum, students at Holy Cross Collegiate
have been learning how to properly stage combat, which has more to it than just
throwing a fake punch.

shows. While it was a cold and
rainy morning, the club was suc-
cessful in raising just over $470.
Thank you to all family, friends and
neighbours that donated as well as
the great service at the Strathmore
depot. Matthew eggen (l-r), Wy-
att Matile, Cole Johnson, James
Farmer, Colten Stewart and Ni-
cole eggen battle the cold to raise
funds.

Playing organized sports or being in-
volved in recreational activities should
be a natural part of being a kid, but it
can also come with a hefty price tag.
The Canadian Tire Jumpstart Chari-
ties is a registered charity that helps dis-
advantaged families across the country.
The Jumpstart program itself is there to
help children from those families get
involved in organized sports and recre-
ational activities.
So its a national charity but each
community has its own chapter. So
Strathmore has a chapter, all funds
raised in Strathmore are used local-
ly, said Shelley Orford, chapter chair.
Orford and her husband Randy own
Strathmores Canadian Tire.
Its an amazing program, its very
well run, and its helped a lot of kids.
Its something that both Randy and I
are 100 per cent behind.
In the store for the next few weeks
there are red balls for sale for $2 each.
Twice a year the balls are sold, which is
one way funds are raised for the char-
ity.
May 26 marks the offcial Jumpstart
day. Throughout the day at the store
there will be events for kids, and their
parents, to enjoy. There will be a BBQ,
and a balloon pop to win prizes. It will
be $1 for both a hot dog and water, and
the balloon pop is also $1 per pop. All
funds raised will go into Jumpstart to
be used locally.
The two main prizes from the balloon
pop are a trampoline and a youth bike
and there are plenty of smaller prizes.
The Strathmore chapter has chapter
members, different organizations that
deal with youth in the community, and
they are the ones that identify the kids
in need and they submit claims on be-
half of those kids.
The more chapter members that we
can get, the more kids we can help,
said Orford.
What were fnding right now is that
were able to raise the money, people
in Strathmore are very generous, we
just need to get an awareness of Jump-
start out there so that the families now
know its a resource they can go to one
of the chapter members if they need
help.
Im a true believer in that program.
To get kids involved in sports I think is
one of the best things you can do for
a kid.
Tinas No Frills will be supplying all
of the BBQ supplies on May 26. The
BBQ and events will be held from 11
a.m. to 3:30 p.m. in front of Canadian
Tire.
Jumpstart helps give kids
a chance to get involved

Standard school staff chose Carol mcKay and
Barb Gregory as their ATA Volunteers of the Year
because of the huge number of students they
impact through their music program. The Christ-
mas and Spring concerts allow the students the
chance to shine for their parents and relatives.
every year the school has to add more and more
seating to these events because of the fantas-
tic quality of the performances. Principal Karen
Smith says, We cannot thank these two ladies
enough for all their donated time and expertise,
no one is more deserving of such an award. Kar-

Students from Strathmore are gear-
ing up for a trip of a lifetime in their
high school year.
Members from Hope Community
Covenant Churchs youth group are
continuing in the process of raising
funds for a trip to Knoxville, Tennessee
from July 15-20. Corinne Stoter, Inter-
im Youth Pastor at Hope Church says
there are presently eight girls and sev-
en guys registered, plus two leaders.
Well be leaving Strathmore on July 13,
and driving (40+ hours each way) to
Knoxville, TN., and well return July
21.
Stoter has attended CHIC twice as a
leader, and can attest to the fact that
this event will be a life-changing op-
portunity for the students. To join
with thousands of other teens from
across North America and around the
world, who are also seeking to live as
followers of Jesus, is an experience
that has proven to be powerful and en-
couraging in a defning time of their
lives. Students come home changed,
and continue to talk about the experi-
ence and what they learned even years
later, says Stoter. She is excited to
have the opportunity to travel with stu-
dents again, and walk alongside them
through this experience. They took
part in a highway clean-up recently as
part of their fundraising but also a s a
community betterment opportunity.
Rachel Wegner, a Grade 12 student
from Strathmore High school, is look-
ing forward to this once in a lifetime
event.
I am looking forward to the differ-
ent activities, worship, band perfor-
mances and special speakers in the
week long event, says Wegner.
The CHIC conference is open to high
school students completing Grades 9
through 12 by September of 2012.
It is a triennial event with a hum-
ble, yet rich, history beginning in 1956
when hundreds of high school age
Covenanters gathered together as the
Covenant High Congress, according to
the website.
The event has quickly expanded to a
much larger group gathering together,
to engage in small group Bible study
and devotion, large group gatherings
with speakers and music, and outdoor
recreation on a larger scale.
This legacy has been carried on to
become what is now Covenant High
in Christ, best recognized as CHIC
by the thousands who attend and tens
of thousands who have attended, and
continue to support this ministry.
The purpose of CHIC is to be a cata-
lyst that inspires Christ-like change;
challenging students to see themselves
as part of something bigger and in-
spiring students on the journey of
following Christ. Through the years
CHIC has been modifed and diversi-
fed, innovated and revolutionized;
however, a few key elements remain,
the CHIC legacy is one of continued
gathering for small group Bible study
and devotion, large group gatherings
with speakers and music, and outdoor
recreation. Praise be to God, faithful
throughout the ages.

Bringing back some
smore this summer!

After a successful trial run in 2011, the Strathmore Tri-Smore
is coming back again this summer, June 23, and is expected to
become an annual event.
The Tri-Smore is an athletic event that is by the community, for
the community. The race celebrates healthy living and promotes
active lifestyles within the Strathmore community. Accommodat-
ing all age groups and ftness levels, there are four categories
that participants can choose from: Full Smore (17 years plus),
Half Smore (13-17 years), Quarter Smore (Under 13 years), and
the Two Bit Smore(Under 8 years). Team options are available for
participants as well.
All categories begin with a swim, and are followed by a bike
and a run. All categories vary in distance.
The cost is $60 for adults, $20 for youth and $15 for the two bit
smores. Adult teams are $150 and youth teams are $60. The price
includes a swim cap, a t-shirt, and post race nourishment. If the
Tri-Smore makes a proft, proceeds will be given back to the com-
munity to support healthy living. The Tri-Smore broke even the
preceding year, due to the initial cost of signage and equipment.
In the younger kids categories, the costs are barely covered
due to the price of shirts, timings and medals, so we depend on
sponsorships to help out. We want to keep the race very reason-
ably priced so that families and individuals can afford to do it,
said race director, Niki Johnson.
Johnson saw a great need for the Tri-Smore when she began
taking her children to races in surrounding communities. The
question that fuelled the fre was, How come we arent doing
this in Strathmore?
The Tri-Smore had a successful turnout of 300 participants in
its frst year, and Johnson is anticipating 350-400 in the second.
She can see it growing considerably larger in the future, due to
Strathmores close location to Calgary and, the fact that the race
accommodates all age groups and ftness levels.
Im excited, Id love to see it grow bigger than that, but Im
also happy to take growth in stride. I dont want it to get too big
too fast, so we cant handle it, said Johnson.
For anyone who is new to the Tri-Smore and is debating wheth-
er or not to try it, Johnson plainly stated, just do it.
When I did my frst triathlon, fve or six years ago, I just de-
cided that it was my year. I set the goal, I worked towards it and
I trained. The Olympic distance but was what I decided to do and
I did it. I felt like I conquered the world at the end, just because
it was a life goal that I had. Its empowering, its something that
challenges you but, when you are done, you think, wow, I did
it! said Johnson.
The Tri-Smore celebrates participation in a fun and friendly
environment, and can be as competitive as each individual wants
it to be.
Everyone is doing the best they can. Youre not going to be
pulled off the course if you dont meet a certain time. We just
want people to be active, set a goal, work towards it and, com-
plete it, encouraged Johnson.
On the day of the Tri-Smore, you can fnd the race director
running the race but not running the race, laughed Johnson.
Ill be there and Ill be around, but I wont be competing. Im
not quite to that point yet, said Johnson.
Participants can apply online at www.tri-smore.com with a pre-
ferred deadline of May 27. Applications may be received after the
deadline, but will be not guaranteed a t-shirt.

A not-so-new ftness craze has taken over,
and can be found almost everywhere, includ-
ing right here in Strathmore. Alberto (Beto)
Perez, who was trying to bring his Latin-
inspired workout classes to America, is the
creator of Zumba. After fnally being invited
to teach a Saturday morning class in Miami
Perez was stuck in traffc and late to start
the class. Not knowing how to say Im sorry,
he just played the music and found the class
loved it, and so Zumba was born.
It is huge, its like a tsunami, every health
club does Zumba, said Brigitte Lessard, own-
er of Strathmores Curves.
Curves offers their own variation of Zumba.
When you do it with the Curves circuit the
Zumba is simplifed because you cant get in
the super fancy (moves) because you only
have a minutebut its very high energy,
said Lessard.
When we do the Curves Zumba, now the
circuit training instead of being 30 seconds is
now one minute. So you do one minute on
the strength training machine, and one min-
ute of Zumba.
Curves Zumba is for women only, and is
available to anyone who has a Curves mem-
bership. The youngest member participating
in the workout is 13, and the oldest is over
70.
A lot of people say its the perfect workout
because it does your strength training, your
cardio, your brain, everything. And we try to
keep within the 30 minutes as well. Thats
one of the big things about Curves is the
workouts are 30 minutes because women are
busythe whole Curves concept has always
been to keep it 30 minutes, said Lessard.
Lets face it, it gets boring to do the same
routine all the time. So with the Zumba what
happens is now youre learning something
new, but we do the routine for maybe six
weeks and then we switch everything. We get
a whole new set, with new songs, new dance,
so it keeps it fresh.
On Monday nights Zumba is being taught
by Lessard and Vicki Lou Hofer, who are
both certifed instructors. Wednesday nights
will be with new instructor Tracey Stokoe,
and there will be a Saturday morning Zumba
class offered as well.
To fnd out more about Curves Zumba con-
tact them at 403-901-1144. Lessard said any-
one who mentions hearing about it from this
article will get a free week to try it out.
Zumba is also offered for both men and
women through Wheatland Further Educa-
tion.
Anytime people come to us with ideas or
courses or sessions that they would like to
see happen in Strathmore and the surround-
ing area we always try and do that. We had
several requests for Zumba, so we just went
ahead and it went over very well, said Joyce
Bazant.

tion call them at 403-934-5785.

It will be exciting and
competitive softball in
Strathmore from Aug. 9 to 12
when the Western Canadian
Fastpitch Softball Champion-
ships will be hosted.
The girls Bantam A Bos-
ton Pizza (BP) Thunder team
is the host for the event.
Being the host just adds
excitement to the team and
they realize that all year. Ev-
ery time they go on the feld
it has a meaning. All season
playing primarily higher age
teams (Midget, Jr and Inter-
mediate Womens) will al-
ways keep them ready, said
Lanky Johnson, coach and
manager for the team, in an
e-mail interview.
The team began play in
the Calgary Womens Fast-
ball league on May 2, and
has been practicing indoors
throughout the winter and
attending indoor clinics
since February.
The BP Thunder won the
Alberta U16 B provincials
last year, and hosting the
western championship sets
the stage for a higher level
of play for all the girls in
the league to aspire to, said
Johnson, who is also girls di-
rector for the league.
The championship will
feature 16 teams, with two
boys and two girls teams
coming from each western
province.
Admission to the tourna-
ment will be free for anyone
under 18 years old.
Johnson said he is hopeful
the community will get in-
volved with the event.
Help is always wanted
and needed, you can never
have enough.
Boston Pizza is the main
sponsor for the team and the
Strathmore to host Western Canadian
U16 Fastpitch Softball Championships
event.
This is not the frst time Strathmore
has hosted softball championships. The
Western Canadian Pee Wee Champion-
ships were hosted by Calgary Minor
Softball two years ago and Strathmore
assisted. The Jr. B Womens Champi-
onship was also hosted in the past, ac-
cording to Johnson.
For more information about the event,
or to get involved, visit the league web-
site at strathmorefastpitch.com.

THOMAS, Shirley Alice
It is with great sadness we announce the
passing of our Wife, Mother and Grandmother in
the presence of her loved ones on May 9, 2012.
Shirley passed away peacefully at the age of 82
years after some time of ill health. Shirley was
born in Calgary, Alberta, the frst child of Alex
and Alice Warrack on August 14, 1929. After
growing up in the Strathmore area she moved to
Langdon and fnished school. With her interest
in the clothing business, Shirley attended SAIT.
On December 1, 1951 Shirley married the love
of her life, David Thomas, and they began to
raise their family in the Langdon area where
they were busy farming and in the real estate
business for years before retiring. Shirley was a
member of the Langdon Rebekahs for 62 years
volunteering a lot of her time to the community
through fundraisers, teas and the famous turkey
dinners. She loved the opportunity the Rebekahs
gave her to travel around the province meeting
new people and visiting with established friends.
Shirley never met anyone she did not like or that
did not like her. Shirley was also very involved
with the Womens Institute, being a long time
member. She would travel with the WI for
conferences going to places like Nova Scotia
and Ireland. Shirley enjoyed traveling as she
took a cruise to Puerto Rico and Barbados and
few to Scottsdale to visit her daughter. Shirleys
love of singing kept her busy entertaining at
various functions like weddings, anniversaries
and Christmas parties. Her great passion was
singing and playing with the little children. She
carried this passion onto her three grandsons,
always ready to run after a bike, build lego
giants and cheer on the boys at a hockey
game. Shirley was predeceased by her infant
daughter Lynn Shirley Thomas and her daughter
Katherine Alice Hochhaus. She is survived by
her loving husband of 60 years, David Thomas,
her daughter Susan and husband Lance Collins
and their three boys Kory, Travis and Kyle and her
son-in-law Steve Hochhaus. Shirley also leaves
behind her two sisters Norma and Doug Hilton
and family, Margaret and Cecil Graham and
family, and her brother Allan and Jean Warrack
and family. Many thanks go to Dr. Ben Sader
and staff for their care and help over the years
and also to the staff at the Strathmore Hospital
for all their help at a diffcult time. Funeral
services will be held on Monday, May 14, 2012
at Wheatland Funeral Chapel, Strathmore at 2:00
p.m. To send condolences please visit www.
wheatlandfuneralhome.ca. In lieu of fowers
donations may be made directly to the Canadian
Cancer Society (200, 325 Manning Rd. NE,
