Final drawings approved for lodge expansion Michelle Pinon Editor
Plans for the new seniors lodge in Lamont are proceeding. Harold James, Executive Director of the Lamont Health Care
Centre, was happy to recently report that the final drawings, completed by JMAA Architecture, have been approved by members of the Lamont County Housing Foundation (LCHF).
“Documents have also been signed between the New Horizons group,� stated James. As to when the demolition of the seniors centre will begin, “likely November�, added James. The seniors will have an assigned space in the new lodge, and James says the space is intended to be a community complex, and will be enjoyed by many people in years to come. The building design for the proposed $10 million two storey facility is compete. “As to when we’ll get into the ground, that will happen once we’ve finished the final plans, and they have
been approved. Then we can go to tender.� The new seniors lodge will have 45 units, a private room for families to dine in, a multi-purpose area, space for recreational activities, and a chapel. “There will be a dedicated home care and examination room,� added James. There will be a reception desk, and the hospital auxiliary will have space for a gift shop. The hope, said James, is that they will be able to begin construction in late winter, early spring.
Lamont Elementary School reaches super literary heights SUBMITTED ARTICLE Super Heros were seen swooping through the hallways during Read-In Week 2015 at Lamont Elementary School. Students and teachers were celebrating “The power of a story� and how a powerful inspirational story can teach lessons, help us gain perspective, and foster empathy. The week began with a visit by author Natasha Deen who shared some of her powerful stories and how these stories inspired her to write. Throughout the week special guests, including a police constable, town councillor, school board
trustee, newspaper editor, principals and former teachers came and read to the students their favourite books to the students. Students also participated in a “Power Up and Read� contest by sending “selfies� of themselves reading at home in order to emphasize the importance of reading not only at school but also at home. Super Hero Day was the highlight of the week with Super Man, Super Teachers, A Super Oiler, Wonder Word Woman, Book Girl and many other caped and masked characters unleashed their super powers throughout the school.

Opinion Trick or treat? What’s this world coming to? That was my first question. Who would do such a thing? That was my second question. The headline: Pill located inside Halloween candy. I was in disbelief, but I read that on Nov. 1, Lloydminster RCMP received two complaints of pills being located inside of children’s candy bags. According to RCMP, “The first, (complaint), was a blister pack filled with medication. The second was when a child bit into a snickers bar and found a round white pill inside the chocolate bar. The pill was stamped with APO. RCMP Cst. Grant Kirzinger said they are currently looking into what APO stands for, and are continuing to investigate the incidents. Now that I’ve got a stomach ache; I am getting a headache because my internal clock has been thrown out of whack since I turned back the time by one hour on Sunday. SleepWell Baby understands all too well the havoc that Daylight Savings Time can have on a person, especially children. That is why SleepWell Baby has published “important tips” for parents. The Saskatoon based sleep consultation company recommends leaving your clocks alone on the first morning of the time change, adjusting the morning and afternoon naptimes by 30 minutes to begin with and add another 30 minutes by the third day. SleepWell Baby also suggests putting your child to bed a half an hour before their regular bedtime for three days before switching back to the regular time. Then came the snow. Not totally unexpected, but unwelcome. Like many people born and raised in Alberta, I still complain about the longest season of the year. Why complain? Totally pointless, unless psychologists have discovered therapeutic benefits of such. Officially the first day of winter falls on Dec. 21 and ends on March 19. So I guess Mother Nature came early. No surprise. Michelle Pinon

As such, the Legion offers a number of resources that are easily accessible when planning events during the upcoming National Poppy Campaign and Remembrance Day ceremonies in your local area. For example, there is your local branch of The Royal Canadian Legion. By contacting Veterans in the Branch, you may find those who would share their experiences with you. Other resources may be found by going to our website: under “Honour and Remember,” where you can find a wealth of information concerning Poppy and Remembrance, Youth Education and our Teaching Guide to name just a few. You may also refer to the section on the Legion’s Pilgrimage of Remembrance which will give you personal impressions of the battlefields and gravesites visited by those who attended these pilgrimages.
In addition, under the “Youth Education” icon, you may find information on the Poster Contest (Colour or Black & White) and Literary Contest (Essays and Poems) that are conducted annually in schools across Canada in the Senior, Intermediate, Junior and Primary categories. The winners of the national competition in the Senior categories (Grades 10, 11, 12) come to Ottawa for the National Remembrance Day Ceremony and place a wreath on behalf of the Youth of Canada. But it all begins with our most important resource – our Legion members and their branches in your local area. Please contact them during this National Poppy Campaign. Lest we Forget!

Local schools to take the E-Waste Challenge SUBMITTED ARTICLE Elk Island Public Schools (EIPS) and Global Electric Electronic Processing (GEEP), have teamed up to launch the E-Waste Collection Challenge. The E Waste Collection Challenge is an innovative green initiative aimed at promoting ewaste awareness among EIPS students. Over a period of nine weeks, from November 2 to December 20, schools throughout EIPS will be delegated two-week time slots each to collect as much e-waste discarded electronics that can be reused, resold, reclaimed, or recycled— as possible. The schools that collect the most e-waste will win anywhere from $500 to $3,000. “We are so pleased to be able to partner with GEEP to promote this green initiative,” says Joseph
Clark, the director of Learning Services at EIPS. “We encourage all of our families and communities to participate. There is no cost to anyone, everyone can participate, and together we can make a real difference.” Schools across EIPS are being encouraged to collect a variety of electronic devices including computer equipment, home-entertainment items, smartphones, power tools, and small household appliances— basically anything the size of a microwave or smaller that can be plugged in or is batteryoperated. Large appliances such as fridges, stoves, and dishwashers are excluded from the challenge. “A growing concern today is how to responsibly process unwanted electronics,” says Clark. “A lot of e-waste is still
going into landfills, which can be potentially damaging to our soil, water, and air. We want to help change that. A lot of materials used to build electronics can actually be reused. The E-Waste Collection Challenge addresses this and shows students how to properly dispose of ewaste.” Throughout the nineweek period, GEEP will gather all of the e-waste schools collect, document it, and weigh it. Schools that collect the most e-waste—determined by dividing the total weight collected by the total number of students at each school— will win up to $3,000. Andrew School, Bruderheim School, Lamont Elementary School, Lamont HIgh School, and Mundare School will be collecting E-Waste from Nov.2-15.

Important Information for Andrew Co-op Members Notice of Special Meeting to be held on November 19, 2015 at 7:00 pm at the Andrew Community Centre to Discuss and Vote on the following Resolutions: (a) Be it resolved by Special Resolution, that we approve, pursuant to 276 of the Co-operative Act, the sale of all or substantially all of the property of the Andrew Co-operative Association Limited to The Beaver Creek Coop Association for $120,000. (b) Pursuant to section 306 of the Co-operative Act, authorize the dissolution of the Andrew Co-operative Association Limited as soon as practicable. (c) The directors and officers of Andrew Co-operative Association Limited be and are hereby authorized and directed to do such acts and things and execute such documents as may be necessary or desireable to implement the said dissolution. Considering the continual decline of operating results and capital required for asset replacement and upgrades, the Board of Directors is recommending the members approve a dissolution and sale of remaining assets of the Andrew Co-op to Beaver Creek Co-op. The Directors of Andrew Co-op are committed to protecting the members’ equity of the Co-operative and retaining services in the community of Andrew. Dissolution with Beaver Creek Co-op purchasing the assets will result in the members of Andrew Co-op being paid out their equity, the assets sold to Beaver Creek Co-op and operational decisions being made by Beaver Creek Co-op. The Board’s intent is to receive approval from the membership for Andrew Co-op to dissolve in early 2016. Note: There will be no voting by proxy. Andrew Co-op Dissolution - Frequently Asked Questions Why Dissolution instead of Amalgamation? Dissolution of the smaller co-op with the larger co-op acquiring the assets is a much simpler process. The members of the smaller co-op are informed of the financial outlook, and in the case of Andrew Co-op are promoting a new relationship and way of doing business that involves Beaver Creek Co-op. This new relationship will retain a Co-op presence in Andrew, and allow the equity of the Andrew Co-op to be dispersed to the members. If Andrew Co-op continues without dissolution - what are the risks? A financial projection was completed and it revealed that operations would continue to decline, and that there would be insufficient savings to generate a patronage allocation to the members. The existing Petroleum assets must be replaced and existing fuel storage upgraded by 2017 in order to comply with the new provincial legislation. There is no return on the investment for the members if the Co-op was to replace these petroleum assets, and it would impair the members equity. If the Andrew Co-op Petroleum department isn’t viable why would Beaver Creek Co-op purchase these assets? Does Beaver Creek Co-op intend to upgrade and continue with the department? The Andrew Petroleum department would be viable as part of a larger association, where it would not incur the full expense of an administration department on its own. Beaver Creek Co-op will use their existing rolling stock to deliver the additional bulk fuel volume, eliminating the cost of a replacement fuel truck. The Cardlock assets would be upgraded to new provincial requirements and would continue to operate. Beaver Creek Co-op would take possession at the beginning of February 2016. What will happen to the employees? The existing employees’ contracts with Andrew Co-op will end January 31st, 2016. If Andrew Co-op dissolves, what is the process? A special meeting has been called for November 19, 2016 at 7:00pm at the Andrew Community Centre. The purpose of the meeting is for the members to vote by secret ballot to dissolve the Andrew Co-op. For Andrew Co-op to dissolve, it will require support of 2/3 of the members that are percent at the special meeting that form a quorum. If the members vote in favor of dissolution the members’ would then need to appoint a liquidator of the assets. Who should the liquidator be? The liquidator is generally an individual that is charged with liquidating the inventory and assets, ensuring the employees are paid and in the end overseeing the members receiving their equity. The liquidator’s roles and responsibilities are covered under the co-op act. Note: As per the Andrew Co-op Articles of Incorporation: On the liquidation and dissolution of the Cooperative and after the payment of all of its debts and liabilities, including any declared and unpaid patronage returns and any amounts to be paid on the redemption of membership shares, the value of the remaining property of the Co-operative is to be distributed or disposed of among the persons who were members of the Co-operative on the date the Co-operative resolved to liquidate and dissolve, in proportion to the number of membership shares held by each member as of that date. How do I continue purchasing from the co-op? Customers will need to purchase a membership and apply for credit and Cardlock Cards with Beaver Creek Co-op to share in the benefits of supporting their co-op. When would I receive my equity cheque? There are several variables in dissolution and an effort will be made to payout equity as quickly as possible. Without having to wait for the sale of assets and the process should move along faster than if the assets were being sold to an outside party.

From Where I Sit: Not Ready
By Hazel Anaka Anyone paying attention to HGTV will have noticed a plethora of new programs about tiny houses. Tiny House Hunters; Tiny House Nation; Tiny House, Big Living; and Tiny House Builders are some of the titles. I watch them in amazement. Some homes are less than 100 square feet. At the other end of the spectrum a five or six hundred version barely fits the small house definition. Some are built on site and have a patch of land as part of the deal. Others are totally movable because they are built on a trailer and
meet highway transport dimensions. Prices start at about twenty-five thousand dollars and go up from there based on size, amenities, and finishes. Fortunately most people understand that you get what you pay for. A twoburner cook top or a toaster oven? A composting toilet or the real thing? Others are so intent on being mortgage-free that they make what I believe to be shortsighted decisions. Although some owners are retirees, I think some designs are better suited to the young. Imagine multiple nightly pee breaks when you’re climbing up and down a ladder from your loft bed (a skinny mattress on a wooden floor). I absolutely hate the knotty pine everything that constitutes the interior finishes of most of them. Imagine the ceiling, walls, doors, and storage areas all in pine. Yuck.
The weight of things matter when your house is mobile so granite countertops, ceramic back splashes, and drywall are out of the question. Using white bead board or painting the gawd-awful pine would certainly brighten things up. Some floor plans and furniture designs are brilliant in their spacesaving, multi-purpose capabilities. Some owners have style sense and manage to add comfort and character to the small space. Others not so much. I remember one woman who had her house custom built including a walk-in closet because she refused to give everything up. Hers was bright, stylish, sophisticated, and incorporated artwork. Not a stick of knotty pine in sight. So many of the people featured on these shows have humongous dogs. Others had cats or even a rabbit. Yoy. Nobody but
LOST - Reward Offered
nobody has children. Most of these homes have a playhouse or motorhome vibe so they’re cute and feel ( I guess) like playing in a dollhouse. So when I checked into our Canmore time-share for my annual self-guided writer’s retreat, I felt I was living a tiny house experiment. That unit was 463 square feet, which is damn near palatial compared to some tiny houses. It had a queen bed, night table, smart TV, gas fireplace, sofa bed, three-drawer dresser, three-piece bathroom, small table and two chairs, and a broom closet. It also had a full‐ size stove, bar fridge, upper and lower cabinets. A small balcony, bar‐ beque, small patio table and chairs round out the features. It was comfortable and met most of my needs. For a week. But I’m cer‐ tainly not ready for full‐ time tiny house living, from where I sit.

Town of Lamont opts out of Capital Region Board Michelle Pinon Editor
Should we stay or should we go? That was the question councillors with the Town of Lamont wrestled with during the Oct. 27 meeting. The question pertained to the municipality’s membership in the Capital Region Board (CRB). The CRB is currently undergoing a membership review, and now eligible participating municipalities have been given the choice of opting out. “We need to look at both sides of the coin,” said Mayor Bill Skinner. Council went through a list of pros and cons of being a member of the CRB. There was only one pro listed, and that was having a voice at the table and the ear of the province, which also has a representative at the monthly meetings. Skinner also pointed out that some of the studies and projects that have
Lamont Mayor Bill Skinner been undertaken by the CRB the Town of Lamont would not be able to afford to do on its own. But coun. Taylor felt that, “Potential and reality are too far apart,” said Taylor, and that was one of the reasons he cited during discussion. “At least we can bring our voice to the table,” said Skinner. Taylor asked Skinner how many times the Town of Lamont has brought forth concerns to the CRB? “We have not brought specific items to

the agenda in the time we have been a member,” replied Skinner. Coun. Gail Hrehorets said they (Town of Lamont) are a “very small player” with only one vote with the CRB, and that population of a municipality allows some municipalities far more sway than other municipalities. “I think we should opt out because it is not giving us value and it could hinder us.” Hrehorets was referring to the current set up and staffing levels with the CRB as well as what she felt was a lack of direction at the present time. Another point that was raised related to the potential of future projects, and those projects potentially not being funded by the province which would leave municipalities with outof-pocket expenses. “Those expenses may not be a significant amount to us, but we would be bound by that commitment,” said
Hrehorets. If a municipality made changes to its Municipal Development Plan or Land Use Bylaw, it would first need the approval of the CRB which could be restrictive to their growth plans. Even though council had 90 days, (until Jan.6), to notify the CRB if it wanted to opt out, councillors Wayne Field and Taylor said they did not see how waiting until the end of November or later would alter their opinions. Taylor made the motion for the Town of Lamont to terminate its status as a participating municipality in the CRB. All of the councillors, with the exception of Skinner voted in favour of the motion. Once the CRB completes its membership review, the results and recommendations will be forwarded to the Minister of Municipal Affairs, who will have the final say. The CRB is a non-prof-
it corporation consisting of an elected official from the 24 member municipalities from within the Greater Edmonton Metropolitan
Region. The CRB was established in 2008 under CRB Regulation 38/2012 under the MGA.

The Lamont Leader (Lamont, Alberta), Tuesday, November 3, 2015 - 11
Celebrating 10 Years being Part of Your Community By KERRY ANDERSON Publisher/Owner Lamont Leader/Caribou Publishing
Time flies when you are having fun, as they say. The Lamont Leader is 10 years old. A decade already. And it has actually been fun… most of the time. I remember coming up with the idea of a weekly newspaper covering all of Lamont County back in about 2004. I found the county similar to where I already had newspapers; Beaver County and Flagstaff County. Lamont County has a resemblance in area, population, and demographics: a farming community mixed with retail and many oil related workers. After checking with the Town of Lamont, then CAO Tom Miller, and Mayor Fred Pewarchuk I discovered that there had indeed been several newspapers over the years which had opened up and then eventually folded in Lamont. That was a surprise and also cause for trepidation. However, ignorance can be bliss at times and I continued my insistence on there being a Lamont Leader - a name my wife Michelle came up with. Besides I wanted to make the Lamont Leader not about the Town of Lamont specifically, but about all of Lamont County both urban and rural. Others warned me that “you could never fit into a Ukrainian community like in Lamont County.” But my belief has always been that people are people, and if we just worry about ourselves and provide the best newspaper we possibly can, then everything would work out alright. But I must admit I had never had such a difficult time spelling names. So we opened up at the AFSC building in a difficult location tucked back into the corner without even a proper front entry area. Economic times were good in Alberta, and there weren’t many retail spaces available if any at all. So, we 2005 Town of Bruderheim objects to proposed HAZCO sulphur facility.

made due there until we were able to move into Maria Young’s Lamont Travel building where we would occupy our own side and are now both tenants and friends. I remember how welcoming everyone had been when we had our Grand Opening barbecue in 2005, and even the Mayor and Lamont County CAO Al Harvey dropped by to wish us the best. Sheryl Winczura was our original editor, and her good coverage of the area’s news jump-started the Leader into community acceptance. But not everyone accepted the new Lamont Leader. I remember accidentally calling a person about a story one time myself and got the cold shoulder. I was told Lamont County had the Triangle and didn’t need another paper. I had to remind the person that we were still in Canada, and have been granted the freedom of competition and free will. In actual fact, I had been a member of the Alberta Weekly Newspaper Association and the Canadian Community Newspapers Association for dozens of years and didn’t know the Triangle even existed as it was never a participating member of either. As far as fitting into the Ukrainian community, I have been wonderfully surprised. I can’t remember how many times I have told friends that I had never in my career had so many nice compliments placed randomly, as by the people of Lamont County. That still stands. What a charming and welcoming culture they are preserving, and we have been able to be a part of it in Bruderheim, Lamont, St. Michael, Andrew, Star, Mundare, Chipman, and Hilliard. The Leader was, and is, sent out free each week to readers. Our only revenue is through advertising and printing. That’s what keeps the doors open. But those dollars were slow coming in at first, as people got used to having their own newspaper and began slowly testing the waters of understanding the benefits of print advertising. Thank goodness for Lamont County. They have been placing their ad in the Leader since

the get-go and to be honest I don’t know if we would have been able to weather those early days without the county’s great support of our weekly newspaper. After we became more established, we began gaining the trust of the community. One of the very first and most enjoyable projects we undertook was the Lamont Centennial newspaper. I worked along side long-time residents and historians Kent Harrold and Jesse Saruk gathering some of the most significant news that happened in the past 100 years. It also gave me a great sense of understanding the area, and I very much enjoyed planning and chatting with Kent and Jesse during this project. One thing I am most proud of about the 100th Anniversary paper is that with the help of Kent and Jesse we tried to present a fair assessment of the past. We presented happy and proud moments like the visit of Queen Elizabeth II, to touching things like a soldier writing home during The Great War, to tragedies like the murder of the Orgal family. News is history, and history is news. Unfortunately it isn’t always good, but the newspaper is a catalogue of that history based solely on the truth. Through the reporters of the past, to the present-day editor Michelle Pinon the Leader follows one mission statement; and that is to cover the news as it happens, separate from opinions, and let the readers decide with no fear or favour. I have found that the very best people are quite okay with that. Another big undertaking was the Leader’s 50th anniversary of the disaster which occurred on Nov. 29, 1960 when a school bus leaving Chipman for Lamont School was tragically hit by a train killing 14 young people at the Lamont crossing. We ran photos of the youngsters and did our best to honour them, while recollecting the facts of the tragedy and also the incredible community cooperation which bloomed among the grieving and horror. This feature story and tribute was deemed best in Canada in 2010 by our peers.

Of course there have been many other newsworthy events in all the small towns of our area, and in the rural farm areas as well. One thing I have learned about the people of Lamont County is that they are not short of opinions, or fear of giving their opinion. In other words, news has not been hard to come up with. At this point I would like to use this space to say thank you to our advertisers and supporters over the years. Your advertisements in the Leader are truly an investment in our ability to cover your events. Also thank you to the staff who have come and gone for various reasons over the past decade, but of whom many remain great friends who drop us a line or pop in for a coffee from time to time. As for the future of the Leader, well these are not the glory years of the print industry. There is much competition. However, small town papers had their drop and then levelled off because mostly of the emergence of the internet. But things are looking up. Analytics have become the game of Google and the like, so the print industry has followed. Recent studies have shown the client close-rate of vehicle sales is far greater advertising to customers in newspapers than any other form of media. In fact, internet advertising was far down the list. Other analytics show that a great many types of businesses are still better served with newspaper advertising, ahead of all others in generating “real” customers who actually want to purchase a client’s product. These closure analytics find that customers who react to newspaper ads tend to be better informed about the advertisers’ product and therefore much closer to finalizing a deal and purchasing. So as the world changes, sometimes the old can become new again. With the continued support of Lamont County advertisers, we plan to continue publishing the Lamont Leader both digitally (Facebook and our website) and in print for many years to come. Thank you Leader readers!

Even though Newt Wallace holds the current record for World’s oldest paperboy, the Lamont Leader’s 82-yearold papergirl Aileen Bilodeau isn’t that far behind. “I don’t know anyone who would hire someone my age, but Kerry did,” said Aileen with a big smile. Around eight years ago Aileen applied for the position. “The paper (Leader), ran an ad looking for someone to stuff and bundle papers. I wanted something to do to keep healthy in body and mind.” The true test came when she was challenged to lift a bundle of newspapers. She remembers saying she was a farm girl, and thought she could lift it just fine. Nowadays, she juggles multiple bundles at the same time, taking the papers in and out of her truck during stops to all the local post offices and various businesses throughout Lamont County every Tuesday. “Most customers are happy to see me, and thank me for delivering the newspaper.” Aileen says she likes the people she works with, and enjoys interacting with them. “I also enjoy the workload,” added Aileen, who puts in 10 to 12 hours every paper day. “Sometimes I forget my keys,” said Aileen, but that doesn’t happen very often as she has a great memory. Staff joke with her that she could probably outwork a person half her age, and she laughs along as well. She believes the job keeps her young at heart, and hopes to continue on for many years to come. God willing.

Correction In the Oct. 27 article Lakeland REA host AGM, it was incorrectly stated that no petition has been initiated by the membership to date. In fact, the petition committee is currently circulating a petition, and emailed a blank copy of the petition to the Lamont Leader. The petition form states: The following members are hereby requesting that a Special General Meeting be called by the Lakeland REA Board to allow the membership to vote on the sale of works of the Lakeland REA to ATCO Electric for the amount of $30,168,234, amounting to approximately $21,548.74 per tap, as offered in the ATCO Electric’s sales proposal. A Special General Meeting can be called if requested by at least 25 per cent of the membership which equates to a minimum of 350 members based on 1,400 total membership. The Leader apologizes for any inconvenience this error may have caused.

Heartfelt Country Music Night in Mundare By Bonnie Hart Country Music has always been a great part of our heritage and those of us who live in the small rural communities often feel the bond between our life experience and the lyrics created by the country music artists who can put those experiences into the words of a song. Not only do we relate to what is familiar to us but we also empathize with the artist’s own personal thoughts because they are so heartfelt. Whether the songs are about a lost young love relationship like in Duane Steele’s hit song “Anita Got Married” or Jamie Warren’s nostalgic look at life in his song “One Step Back” or the realities of the life of a farmer in Craig Owen Jenkins’ song “Diesel and Dirt”, most people find something that they identify with. The great guitar music that accompanies the words just lifts the experience to another dimension. Craig Owen Jenkins produced a music concert on Oct. 22 in Mundare featuring Alberta’s own Duane Steele, Jamie Warren from small-town Ontario, and Craig himself who resides in the Tofield area. Duane has had many hit songs over the years and in 2001 received the Canadian
Country Music Award for Independent Male Artist of the Year as well as the Vocal Collaboration of the Year Award in 1997 for the song “Two Names on an Overpass” with Lisa Brokop. Duane has a new album out entitled “Dirt and Dreams,”several of the new songs on this album have been released to radio. Jamie Warren is another accomplished country artist with many awards and hit songs. In 1999 he received the CCMA Independent Male Vocalist of the Year Award and his song “Cried All the Way Home” was named Independent Single of the Year. Warren has, over the years, received many other awards and has been nominated in many categories as well as for the Juno Awards. Craig Owen Jenkins, who is an experienced performer, released his first country album last year. This album has songs for all the working people like truck drivers, farmers and cowboys. Craig has been nominated several times for the Alberta Country Music Association Awards in the categories of Male Artist of the Year and for the Fan’s Choice Award. Craig also wrote a song entitled “Little White Lies” which was recorded by Chloe Albert on her latest album. This
album was nominated for a Juno. Chloe’s version of Craig’s song received a lot of airplay when released in 2014. Over the years Craig had met both Duane and Jamie at various music performances and in May of this year had the opportunity to attend a song writer’s workshop called Songrise where Duane was one of the mentors. Later this spring Craig decided to move forward with a plan that he had been thinking about for some time and that was to bring country music back to the country. The big cities do host many country music concerts and every year there is Big Valley Jamboree, but many country music lovers who live out in the small towns and rural areas often find that attending the large venues is too expensive and they’re often just too far away. Craig thought that putting on concerts in the local areas would give those people the opportunity to hear the music they love, meet the artists, and not have to spend a lot of time and money travelling. Craig contacted Duane who also thought this was something people would enjoy and Duane offered to bring Jamie in on the performances. Those attending the concert had a great
Jamie Warren, left, Craig Owen Jenkins, middle, and Duane Steele performed in Mundare on Oct. 22. evening hearing original music from the performers who are all songwriters. Duane Steele did sing one song written by Gordon Lightfoot who is one of Canada’s most famous musicians. Fans showed their appreciation with comments like “when is the next show?” and “ that is what country music should sound like”. In the future concert productions Craig does plan to also feature other artists and possibly some local talent as well. To show his genuine community spirit, Craig invites local not-for-profit organizations to look after providing the concessions for the concerts. He believes that this is also a benefit to the small communities who are trying to raise money for various causes. At the concert, the Air Cadets provided the con-
cession and several acted as greeters at the doors to direct any concert goers who weren’t familiar
with the hall. All proceeds from the concession sales went to the Air Cadets.

16/60 Hockey League KERRY ANDERSON Lamont County Minor Hockey teams playing in the 16/60 Hockey League will have scores reported here each week in the Lamont Leader. If you know of a local team playing in a different league, or if your town’s team is combined with another town and listed in its name, or if your team was somehow missed among the many 16/60 teams reported here, please email me and it will be added: kamcjm@gmail.com Initiation 1-3 Mundare, and Initiation 1-2 Lamont have not started the season.

Funds needed for rebuild of Bruderheim Skateboard Park SUBMITTED BY THE TOWN OF BRUDERHEIM Bruderheim’s Skateboard Park, which was located in the Bruderheim Community Park on Queen Street, was closed in March of 2015. Initially installed as a result of community fundraising efforts in 2007, it was of wood and steel construction. The wooden planks had rotted and posed a safety risk. Since the closure, a group of youth have been requesting a new skateboard
park, which could cost upwards of $100,000 depending on the size and scope of the project. The Town of Bruderheim currently has $32,000 in a trust account to put towards a new park, and has entered the AVIVA Community Fund contest in an effort to raise more money. Grants will be pursued as the project qualifies to ensure that local youth have a safe place to interact and stay active in the near future.
