Greening up Lamont Michelle Pinon Editor
Hillside Park was the site of festivities on Saturday, Sept. 26th to officially mark the opening of four new picnic sites and the planting of more than 20 new trees. Mayor Bill Skinner shared his thoughts before Kori Maki of Smith Insurance cut the ribbon around 12 Noon. Around 50 people gath-
ered for the celebration which kicked off with the tree planting earlier in the morning. Skinner brought official greetings on behalf of town council, staff and residents of the T own of Lamont. “I would like to recognize the ef fort that Mic Dunsmore has put into making this event happen today. He has spent many hours in planning and organizing to make it a r eality. I
would also like to express our gratitude to Home Hardware Stores Ltd. and Tree Canada.” He went on to say, “It is the support from organizations such as these that make it possible to bring an event such as this to our community. They have been active in many aspects; the process from selecting the right types of trees to advertising. Thank you to all those
who have donated towards the purchase of the trees for this event, and to all the r esidents we have out today to assist in the planting of these trees. Your ongoing support is greatly appreciated as we develop our park into a place that our families can use and enjoy.” Continued on Page 10

Job postings abound at local career centre Michelle Pinon Editor
On any given day , job seekers can view between 500 and 750 available postings at the Careers Under Construction office in Fort Saskatchewan. Regional Manager Aimee Penny says, “The job board hasn’t slowed down at all.” Either has the number of self directed clients who come in to
use the company’s services. “For the past six years, the average number of clients has never increased or decr eased,” states Penny. On average, there are 1,600 clients per month who come through the door. One factor that’s keeping the labour market consistent, adds Penny, is work at the North W est Redwater Partnership that is keeping jobs active in the r egion. In
fact, Penny says the summer months were busier than in the past because of people r elocating to the region. “We’ve had quite a few migrate from Fort McMurray. Penny points out that there are definitely more people wanting to make a career transition, several of which ar e stay at home moms who are getting back into the work force and want to know what skills ar e required
for certain positions. She also gets a lot of inquires regarding apprenticeship programs in the Fort Saskatchewan area and also r equirements for trades training at the U of A, Grant McEwen University or NAIT. Careers Under Construction also assists clients through career counselling, resumes, cover letters and workshops. The company can
also assist with job placement and job shadowing programs. Penny says Car eers Under Construction is under contract with the provincial government, and has been pr oviding services in the ar ea for the past 12 years. Even though the company’s service area is Sherwood Park, Fort Saskatchewan, Redwater, Gibbons, Bon Accord and Legal, r esidents from other com-
munities are welcome to drop into the of fice or attend some of their workshops. Some of the complimentary workshops include: Computers For Beginners, Public Speaking, Budgeting for Financial Success, Customer Service Excellence and Of fice Administration Professional.

Home visitation program receives grant funding Michelle Pinon Editor
Thanks to a new injection of funding, Lamont County families in need will benefit fr om a new home visitation program. Thanks to new grants intr oduced through the Provincial Family and Community Safety Pr ogram, 76 local pr ojects will be funded, including the Complex Needs Family Home Visitation Program. The new program, which will be operated through Lamont County Region Family & Community Support Services (FCSS) will be r eceiving $34,000 to operate the program in 2015-’16. Melissa Shiach, Program Coordinator with Lamont County FCSS, said she has been working to develop the program over the past year , but budget constraints had r estricted the pr ogram from growing; even though the need for the pr ogram has grown. Shiach said she has been working with an incr easingly large number of individuals and families within the county with complex needs, including families facing barriers due to isolation, addictions, medical
and mental health issues and socioeconomic barriers. “Our FCSS office has seen a jump in r eferrals from an average of one per month to one per week.” Shiach also pointed out that in 2013, the Lamont County Food Bank gave out 65 more hampers than in 2010, a 41 per cent increase.” According to MEG Ener gy Corp’s 2013 Community Investment Survey, “We have been identified as having a low median income per household with many of our young families experiencing a time of economic str ess due to under employment. The average household income is an estimated 14 per cent lower than the provincial average.” Shiach said she will seek to work with individuals and families who ar e facing challenges that ar e beyond their capabilities to deal with. “We will meet with families and individuals in their own home, and/or environments that they ar e comfortable in. When situations ar e beyond our expertise, we will either refer clients on to a mor e specified service or work together with other professionals in our area to serve our clients in a pr ofessional and r espectful manner. Our goal for this pr oject is to incr ease family and
community safety, provide greater access to resources and supports to Albertans, and incr ease integration among community partners. We endeavour to work with people of all ages and all walks of life. Like all FCSS pr ograms, this pr ogram will be designed to: 1. Help people to develop independence, str engthen coping skills and become more resistant to crisis; 2. Help people to develop an awar eness of social needs; 3. Help people to develop interpersonal and gr oup skills which enhance constr uctive relationships among people; 4. Provide supports that help sustain people as active participants in the community. Again, it all depends on what the family or individual is in need of, but some of our strategic partners include: local schools, Lamont County Community Adult Learning Centr e, (CALC), Alberta Health Services, Lamont County, Early Child Development Mapping Project Alberta, (ECMAP), Elk Island Thrift Store, Lamont County Housing Foundation, and Child and Family Services, (CFS).

Mundare competes in Adopt a School Michelle Pinon Editor
Mundare School is one of four local schools that will be competing for prize money in a literary fundraising program. Mundare School, Br uderheim School, Ecole Campbelltown, and Ecole Parc Elementaire from Elk Island Public Schools (EIPS) ar e participating in this year’s Indigo Adopt a School program; a national initiative to raise money for elementary school libraries. “We would love to get the wor d out there and win one of the top thr ee prizes just from free adopts, but we sure wouldn’t mind hedging our bets with a few donations etiher,” says Sian V adnais, Library Technician with Mundare School. “We’d love to see the library filled to the brim with some fabulous new materials our staf f and students could benefit fr om for years to come!”
Vadnais explains every $12 donation gets a book for the library, and it also gets them 10 ‘Adopts’. The Adopt a School pr ogram runs until October 10th and r equires the community’s support in the way of online voting and donations. The school with the most votes, in any one province, will win $10,000 from Indigo. In fact, the top thr ee schools in the pr ovince with the most votes will receive anywhere between $5,000 and $10,000. The first place school will r eceive $10,000; the second place school will r eceive $7,500; and the third place school will receive $5,000.
Voting is fr ee, and the mor e votes a person casts, the better. Each time a school r eceives an ‘Adopt’, it moves closer to winning the $10,000 grand prize. Go to: www .adoptaschool.indigo.ca/eng/schools in order to participate.

Opinion From Where I Sit: It Ain’t Easy
By Hazel Anaka While waiting for harvest to start (sigh) and in between applying for grants for Babas and Borshch, I’ve caught
some of the new fall TV shows. I’ve been intrigued by the trailers for CTV’s Blindspot and managed to catch the season premiere on Monday night. Apparently it takes seven hours to apply the tattoo makeup that covers the her oine amnesiac’s body. Because I love puzzles I’m hooked on the mystery and intrigue hidden on the surface of her body. It will be inter esting to see how , week after week, they r eveal the clues that unravel the mystery and just happen to save the world in the process. We are already seeing hints of what
makes this woman special. And dangerous. The chemistry emerging between FBI Kurt Weller and Jane Doe doesn’t hurt either. The new, ninth season of The Big Bang Theory also started this week. And Penny and Leonard finally pulled the trigger and got married. Sheldon and Amy are splitsville. It is a credit to the show’s cr eator and writers that this show continues to be funny and clever and r elevant this many seasons in. The other thing I’ve managed to do as farmers live in weather limbo is read. I completed a book of essays by Lisa
and Francesca Scottoline entitled My Nest Isn’ t Empty, It Just Has Mor e Closet Space. As someone who’s nest has been empty for some time I was attracted to the book more because of its author than its subject matter. I didn’t know the work of Lisa Scottoline until I found an audio book of her title Killer Smile. It was a mystery with a twist. It linked to the very r eal issue of World War II internment camps. As an ItalianAmerican author her story focused on that story. We learn mor e of her interest during the author interview at the end of the last CD.
I couldn’t help but make the connection to the Ukrainians similarly interred in Canada during the same war . I, of course, didn’t even know of this shameful period in Canadian history until Babas and Borshch focused on the 100th anniversary at last year’s festival. A former Lamont County resident, Andy Antoniuk, who succumbed to cancer a few months ago, did a couple of pr esentations about the ef fect of this historical event on his family. The work he and other descendant survivors did to raise awareness of this outrage will not be for got-
ten, especially if we don’t allow it to be forgotten. What Scottoline did through fictionalization and Antoniuk did through research and talks serve the same purpose: raising awar eness and reminding us that no group of people has escaped mistreatment at the hands of others. The other thing this harvest delay has done is remind us who is in control. That also gives us a chance to work on our patience muscle as we ‘hurry up and wait.’ For those of us who are naturally impatient, it ain’t easy from where I sit.

Members of the Lamont Lakers senior girls team gained momentum as the two day Wildcats Invitational Volleyball tournament progressed. In this photo they played off against the Smoky Lake Eagles to earn a berth in the championship game. The finals were very exciting as the Lakers lost the first set 20-25, but rebounded in the second set to win 25-23, and in the decisive set sealed the deal with a 15-8 victory over Marwayne. It was the Lakers first tournament win of the season, and will have them in good stead as they host their own home tournament October 16 and 17th at Lamont High School.

Andrew junior volleyball teams have commanding presence on the court Michelle Pinon Editor
Andrew School’s junior high volleyball teams brought back some well deserved hardware from the Elk Island Public Schools (EIPS) annual tournament Sept. 19 and 20th in Sherwood Park. “In all honesty, I did not know what to expect,” said Kyle Hazlehurst, coach advisor and athletic director with Andrew School. The junior girls took the gold medal, while the junior boys captur ed the silver medal. “Coming from strictly a large school background, where I coached elite level volleyball, I did not know how a team made up of Grades 5-8 students would compete against larger populations schools. I was blown away by how both teams ATHLETIC DIRECTOR played!” KYLE HAZLEHURST He went on to say, “As Athletic Director, I was fortunate to have high school athletes r equest to coach younger age groups. I am serving as a coaching advisor . These high school athletes want to break into coaching, so I am more than happy to pass on my 22 years of coaching experience in elite volleyball onto them.” Hazlehurst pointed out that both teams have been well coached by the student athletes. “The coaches have pushed their athletes har d, and expect a lot from them. The athletes r espond very well in those regards.” Hazlehurst’s main focus as Athletic Director is to make sure the students are taught properly, and have r espect for their coaches and their processes. “We are happy and pr oud of our str ong program. Most schools will write us of f as a small school, but we were able to showcase our str engths this past weekend, and we will continue to do so this season, and for years to come.” In the meantime, the junior teams will be practicing and playing har d during regular season play, in preparation for their invitational tournament on Oct. 16 and 17th on home court.

Bruderheim Energy Terminal superintendent ‘excited’ about his and the company’s future Michelle Pinon Editor
Bill Soini was more of a fisherman than an oil man before he came out west; but in less than 10 years he has made his mark in the industry, and with Cenovus Ener gy’s Christina Lake project. Now, he is getting his feet wet as the new Superintendent of the Bruderheim Energy Terminal (formerly Canexus). “We’ve been very, very successful, and we’re excited to be here,” adds Soini, who started working at the terminal in early August. While the official hand over wasn’t until Aug. 31st, Soini was busy familiarizing himself with all aspects of the operation, not just the crude by rail transloading component. Soini says the transition has been very smooth, and the background, history and experience of the terminal’s previous manager was invaluable to him. Having Savage, the leading provider of rail trans-
portation and terminal operations in Canada and the US, is also invaluable. Cenovus hired Savage to work with Soini’s on-site management team in the day to day operations, and they are melding together very well. “Savage brings rail expertise, and we bring solid capability in crude operations.” He went on to say, this is Cenovus’ first asset in this area. “We are very excited to be her e.” He recently met with Lamont County council, and is slated to meet with Bruderheim town council on W ednesday, Oct. 21st. Since the take over , Soini has been focusing a lot on training and safety of staff. “Our safety and regulatory commitments are well in hand.” Soini and the company are always striving to improve, and focuses a lot of support on its employees and contractors. “We have an excellent emergency response plan.” Currently, he is putting together a strategic plan, and looking at gr owing

all aspects of the operation. “We have about 160 acres of undeveloped land on the pr operty,” notes Soini, and they will be exploring dif ferent opportunities for futur e development. “We have a unique opportunity here at the Bruderheim Energy Terminal as we can go on either the CP or CN rail. It’s very unique.” Ther e is plenty of potential, and Soini says they will keep targetting capital plans, and when rail becomes more of an attractive marketing option, they will alr eady have the flexibility and ability to r espond to those changing conditions. The terminal is operating 24/7, 365 days of the year, now r unning both day and night shifts. “Currently we ar e loading and unloading unit trains.” He plans on averaging 10 unit trains per month to start. Soini has a lot of enthusiasm, and plenty of optimism in his voice, and is r eady for the long haul on the rails to success.

Town of Mundare to roll out new garbage collection system Michelle Pinon Editor
This Thursday the Town of Mundare will be rolling out its new garbage collection system to residents. “The new system is an automatic garbage collection system like in Lamont and Br uderheim,” said Colin Zyla, Chief Administrative Officer for the Town of Mundare. “Residences will be provided a roll off bin that is to be placed on the fr ont street and a tr uck will pick up the bins automatically.” Zyla explained that the t o w n ’ s garbage truck dates back to 1996. “Given the age, the cost of replacement, and the time required to c o l l e c t g a r b a g e (three guys for half to three quarters of a day), council decided that the best way to provide garbage collection was to contract it out. W e believe that the contractor will provide a more efficient service. The town will not have to
worry about fuel, insurance, etc. cost of a replacement, (a new tr uck was expected to cost an extra $5 per month per residence for collection). Zyla pointed out ther e are no additional costs for the switchover fr om town operated to contractor operated. “Our calculations show that ther e will be no increase in 2016. The cost of the program will be monitor ed. We do try to operate all utilities on a cost r ecovery basis. People are billed monthly for garbage collection. The first year cost of collection is estimated at ar ound $80,000.” Zyla said the total cost of garbage collection in 2014 was $77,649. The landfill requisition was $36,273. “The town is looking at a five year contract. The company GFL will be doing the recycling collection, residential garbage collection, and commercial garbage collection.” Recycling will continue to be by a blue bag program. “We are looking at recycling bins for car dboard collection for the larger businesses. The company does offer yard waste collection, however, council decided to not go with it at this time. They wanted to implement the garbage collection befor e the yar d recycling. This will be evaluated in the future.” Zyla noted that, “The town’s garbage collection rate of $23.10 per month cov-

Lamont New Horizon SeniorsClub taking aim at their new future Michelle Pinon Editor
Even though the sun is setting on the Lamont New Horizon Senior Citizens Drop In Centre; there is a pr omise of a bright new futur e in coming years. Club President Marvin Eleniak said that although the sale of the facility has been finalized, and tender bids have gone out for its demolition, the club will have a lot to look forward to as it will be taking up r esidence in the new Beaverhill Pioneer Lodge in about two years time. Eleniak told The Lamont Leader last Friday that the building was sold for $10 to the Lamont County Housing Foundation, who will in turn be demolishing the building, to make way for the new lodge that will be constructed in the coming year. Eleniak said he has been advised the new facility will take between 12 and 18
months to complete, and that the seniors club will have a dedicated space for flooring curling and other events in the new facility. Eleniak said the new facility will be much better for local seniors in terms of access as well as financially as they will only have to pay $1 per year to lease the designated area in the new lodge. “All the utilities will be paid.” Eleniak said the only costs to the club will be for a phone. In the meantime, the Bruderheim Seniors Citizens Club has graciously offered use of its facility for floor curling to the Lamont seniors. Currently, there are between eight and 10 seniors who r egularly floor curl, and they will be car pooling to Bruderheim in the near future. As far as bingos go, Eleniak said they will still be held at Beaverhill Pioneer Lodge every Tuesday evening at 7 p.m. Everyone is welcome to attend.

Greening Up Lamont Continued from Page 1 Tree Canada r epresentative John Helder also thanked its long-time partner Home Hardware for working with the non-profit organization to “green communities” such as Lamont. “This year, Tree Canada is working with 38 Home Har dware stores across Canada to plant trees in their communities. This time of year is especially impor-
tant as National For est Week, (Sept. 20-26), and National Tree Day (Sept. 23), fall within this month; an important day to be thankful for all the great gifts tr ees bestow upon us and r eflect on how we can plant and care for trees.” Since 1999, Helder said Tree Canada and Home Hardware dealer acr oss the country have planted over 21,000 tr ees. Mic Dunsmore, dealer-owner of the Lamont Home
Hardware with his wife Debra, also thanked the guests, sponsors, staf f, and residents for donating their time and money to the pr oject. “This is a great community, and doing our part to make our community a better place to live is one way of saying thank you to our customers and community for your support over the years.” Karen Peddle, middle, was the winner of the Lamont Home Hardware raffle that was held during Tree Planting Day at Hillside Park on Saturday, Sept. 26th. Mic and Debra Dunsmore presented her with a tree, shovel, and wheelbarrow.
