Wildrose infrastructure critic tours Heartland Michelle Pinon Editor

Drew Barnes wants to help pave the way for a different future with the Wildrose Party. Barnes, Infrastructure and Transportation Critic, was in Fort Saskatchewan on the last leg of his province-wide tour late Friday morning when The Lamont Leader caught up with him. The Cypress-Medicine Hat MLA was on a fact finding mission. “It’s very important to listen to local people,” stated Barnes, who had spoken to hockey parents, economic leaders, producers, and stakeholders over the past seven days. Barnes even had informal meetings with folks at various Tim Hortons along the route. From the information Barnes had gathered, residents wanted to see more spending in

growth areas of the province. “They wanted to balance that with other areas that had safety concerns.” “We want to take politics out of decision making,” explained Barnes. “There is only one taxpayer.” He said he wanted to hear first hand what was important to Albertans in order to develop a comprehensive list of priorities based on needs. “We wanted to see how all of this fits into the entire scheme of things so that by the next election will will have a province-wide infrastructure list.” The overall plan, if the Wildrose takes office in 2016, would be to inject $50 billion in infrastructure spending over the next 10 years, added Barnes. “Then all Albertans will know when and where the jobs will be done and will be able to get more projects done.”

Barnes said the PC’s have broken promises on several projects in recent years, and both he and the Wildrose want to change that. He cited Highway 61 in his constituency that had been slated for an upgrade many years ago, but was only partially completed. He said that not only this case, but others like Secondary Highway 881, work had started and stopped, with stakeholders and residents left in the lurch-not knowing why the project(s) had been delayed or scrapped altogether. Barnes feels that with enough input, the Wildrose will have all the information it needs to establish the right priorities list. Barnes expects to have his report completed within a week. “At that time we will make our findings public.”

2 - The Lamont Leader (Lamont, Alberta), Tuesday, October 8, 2013

Town of Lamont election candidates Doug Pewarchuk wants to be a fresh voice on Lamont town council. "I believe it is time for some fresh voices on town council. I would like to see Lamont move forward with a better environment for new businesses and families," says Pewarchuk, who was born and raised in the community. He would also like to see a review of public works policies and infrastructure. "I feel the level of service has degraded in the past few years, and we need to identify the root causes and address them." Pewarchuk would also like to see upgradeses for Hillside Park and development of the skate park initiative. As well he would like to see more corporate sponsorship for the town's recreational spaces and facilities. In terms of policing, Pewarchuk says he would like more of a police presence in the community. "Council needs to think outside the box on this Doug Pewarchuk issue and develop a better plan." Another fresh face, Dave Taylor is also vying for a seat on council. He too was born and raised in Lamont. He has enjoyed the best health care and education growing up. "The close knit community provided a perfect backdrop for discoveries, challenges and opportunities that moved me from childhood through the teen years, towards adulthood. The valuable relationships I developed with friends, teachers and community members could only have been afforded by the familiarity and welcome of a small community." Taylor earned a degree in physical education and sport studies, and has led to many different, rich, and rewarding experiences and opportunities in his chosen career. "Working with a national sport team allowed me to travel around the world, experiencing many different cultures and communities through all this, my reference and baseline would always remain my home community in Lamont, and visits home would Dave Taylor always bring back how

important my roots were and are. During these years, our family grew and with the final roster of three children, we decided to take advantage of an opportunity to move to Lamont to raise our family." Taylor, 40, believes the upcoming civic election is another opportunity to serve and commit to the Town of Lamont as a councillor. "It would be my humble honour and privilege for me to represent and advocate the community that has given me and my family a place to call home. Leadership with respect, integrity and open communication are traits that I bring with me, along with a willingness to learn and explore opportunities and direction for the town." Debra Dunsmore is also looking forward to the opportunity to help the town grow and provide opportunities for families, young and old, to develop and prosper. "I am ambitious, energized and interested in the welfare of the Town of Lamont and the potential of our community. I like to learn. I have a strong team work ethic and know that I will contribute to the Town of Lamont council." Dunsmore, business owner of Lamont Home Hardware, has spent most of her working career in business administration and management. "I Debra Dunsmore worked for a chartered accounting firm for 21 years, in health care for five years, private aviation for seven years." Dunsmore has also operated a part-time aromatherapy massage business for 15 years. Denis Schuster is new to campaigning and public office, but is willing to give it 100 per cent. A seven year resident of Lamont, Schuster says he loves the community and wants to make a difference by

becoming a member of town council. "I'd like to talk about taxes." While Schuster isn't saying they're too high; he would like to see them frozen for awhile. He would also like for council to find a way to bring new businesses to town. Schuster would also like to "spruce up" downtown, repair more streets and sidewalks, and have more benches in Hillside Park for people to use. He points out that his mom was Ukrainian, and he knows and loves the culture. He also promises to act on the needs and best interests of others in the community with a passionate heart. Ellis Oberle is not a newcomer to the Town of Lamont or town council. He has lived in the community for 35 years and has previously served on council. Oberle would like another opportunity to serve in that capacity, and wants to let residents know about his vision for a vibrant, healthy, prosperous, and growing community. His vision includes a "welcoming community that encourages participation in healthy activities" whether they are athletic, cultural, club or community orientated. Oberle would like the chance to work with council to take a leadership and cooperative role with local business, education and health groups. Oberle envisions the Ellis Oberle town having planned and organized growth based on sound financial, marketing and strategic plans. He wants the town to be a leader and not a follower, and to take the necessary action for growth. "I believe I share this vision of a vibrant, healthy, prosperous, and growing community with the citizens of Lamont. I would appreciate the opportunity to work on behalf of the community to carry out the vision." Cont’d on page 22

All candidates election forum set for Oct. 9 Residents get the chance to hear from candidates and learn more about their leadership goals Michelle Pinon Editor

Campaigning for the Oct. 21 election is in full swing, and voters will get a chance to hear from the candidates first hand this Thursday evening. Personal introductions and platforms will be

unveiled during the All Candidates Political Forum at the Lamont Recreation Centre Oct. 9 from 6 to 10 p.m. The forum is being sponsored by the Lamont and District Chamber of Commerce. President Brett McNelly said the primary pur-

pose of a candidate’s forum is to offer a service to the community members that aligns us with the municipalities and creates awareness about the value the Chamber of Commerce provides to a community. McNelly added that the Chamber is trying to

be present and add value to events like this. The event will be the one and only public forum for voters to attend before they head to the ballot box on October 21.

Shattering truth saves lives I tried wiping away the tears as soon as they spilled from my eyes. But they kept sliding down my cheeks faster than I could dry them with my fingers. Soon I realized it would be impossible to stop the flood. I turned my head side to side, back and forth, peering through my blurred vision to see if others were doing the same. They were. Watching the short fictional movie ‘Smashed’ was long enough for me and students at Lamont High to personally feel the impact and emotion of impaired driving and its devastating consequences. Seeing photographs and hearing comments from victims and family members firsthand was truly sobering as well. Forget statistics. This can happen to anyone, anywhere, anytime. When put in that context, consequences of a “bad choice” were brought clearly into perspective. Maybe visual and verbal shock treatment will be what it takes for my son, your son and daughter, to not get behind the wheel when they are impaired. If that’s what it takes to save lives then I’m all for shattered shock therapy. As a parent, principal Sharon McLean talked about the “sleepless night” worrying and waiting hour after hour for your child to come home safely. In the blink of an eye it could all change and break hearts and lives. Even days after the MADD (Mothers Against Drunk Drivers) presentation my 15-year-old was still thinking and talking about the film and the victims and their families who had been interviewed. If this was what it is going to take to help him make the right choices when the time comes, then the tears would have been well worth it. For the mothers, fathers, brothers, and sisters who will never stop crying or hurting because their loved ones died as a result of impaired driving; my heart and prayers go out to you. For Jamie Fisher, the pain of having his mother killed by an impaired driver, will not go away. But the fact he has had the courage to take up the battle against impaired driving in her honour is so couragous. Fisher, one of five outreach co-ordinators with MADD, told me that if he helped save one life, it would all be worth it. Later that day I started to realize what a gift Fisher, the MADD organization and sponsors of the presentation were, unselfishly giving us all a chance to become fully aware and truly understand the dangers of impaired driving. Thank you.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Div.5 councillor bows out due to conflict of interest The 2013 municipal elections are just around the corner and at this time I would like to thank the electorate of Division 5 Lamont County for their support over the last six years. I have tried to bring a business-man’s approach to county operations and the experience has been interesting, rewarding and at times, frustrating. I decided not to run for re-election this year because of where I live, which is in the area of the Heartland where significant development is expected to take place. Due to my close proximity to development I have a pecuniary (conflict of) interest and as a result I do not

It is my opinion that the interests of the citizens of Division 5 are best served by a councillor who is not a resident of the Heartland Industrial Zone. Thank you again. I have appreciated your support. Please take the time to vote for the candidate of your choice.

Candidates vie for council seats in Mundare Michelle Pinon Editor

When voters go to the polls in Mundare they will see the names of challengers as well as incumbents on the ballots. Doug Kleen, Irene Talaga, and John Bruyere will be challenging incumbents Frank Rosypal, Jaime Burghardt and Mary Greening. The only person not having to run for a seat on council is Charlie Gargus, who ran for mayor, and won by acclamation. Doug Kleen has resided in Mundare since 2002. This is his second time running for council. A property manager, Kleen Doug Kleen wants to see more roads in the community upgraded and attract more businesses to the downtown core. Irene Talaga previously served on council for 15 years. She is running again because she would like to see more fiscal responsibility as well as economic growth. Talaga would also like to see Mundare School full and attract even more young families to the community. One of her priorities if she is re-elected would be to have more open communication between the town and its Irene Talaga residents. She has lived in Mundare for 20 plus years and has volunteered with several community groups including the Royal Purple and Recreation Centre.

Andrew municipal election candidates run for their opportunity to grow the community Michelle Pinon Editor

Seven candidates will be looking to fill five seats on council in Andrew on Oct. 21. In the running are incumbents Barry Goertz, Ron Spragg and Arnold Ostafichuk against newcomers Osama Hamed, Brent Matiaszow, Mona Mitchell-Frampton, and Heather Tait. In fact, residents will be able to hear from the candidates during a political forum this Wednesday evening (Oct. 9) at 7:30 p.m. at Andrew School. Goertz, who has resided in the village since 2006 is running for his second term in office. "This is a beautiful community with so many wonderful attributes. There are additional opportunities as well to make it even more vibrant and healthy. Our demographics are very diverse, with new families moving in at an incredible pace, and then we have such a rich his-

tory and stable population with our seniors. How to make all of this work in harmony is the question. I believe that I

Barry Goertz have what it takes to help bring this all together." Goertz's goals for the next term include: communication, youth and school, accountability as well as growth and economic development. He advocates for communication between the residents and the village and the village and residents. In addition he wants to change the avenues of communication, social media and newsletters or be open to ideas from

residents. He intends on working with numerous social groups to foster harmony and cohesion. Goertz would also like to have an open door policy between the municipality and the school as well as accountability from council, administration, public service employees and emergency services. He also believes that if his first three goals are met then people and businesses will want to live and work in the community. Ron Spragg is running for his third term in office, and says he would like to continue to help

encourage and foster economic development in the village. Spragg says there are currently three possible commercial developments on the horizon and hopes those developments will pave the way for even more commercial and light industrial development in the community. "I am committed to the village and dedicated to progress," says Spragg. He also feels he is most qualified for the job and is experienced, dependable and honest. Spragg sits on many committees and belongs to several community groups. They include: Andrew Community Centre Association, Andrew Library Board, Andrew Co-op Board, and is actively involved with the Andrew Garlic

Festival and Sport-Off Days. Arnold Ostafichuk is also seeking re-election. "I have served the previous term on council with diligence, and if elected, will continue to serve with honesty, integrity, and sincerity to improve the quality of life for residents." A former business owner, Ostafichuk has served with the Andrew Fire Department, Andrew Lions Club and Andrew Co-operative Association. He has played with and volunteered with numerous sports teams as well as attending Remembrance Day Ceremonies and the Andrew Parade. "While serving on village council this last term I was the village representative on the

Arnold Ostafichuk landfill commission, always keeping in mind the environmental upgrades and new provincial rules governing the operation of the landfill. I would like to continue as the village representative to ensure the village residents will be treated fairly and equitably now and in the future." Cont’d on Page 9

Pesticide collection campaign comes to Lamont elevator This fall, farmers are being invited to safely and responsibly dispose of their unwanted or obsolete agricultural pesticides. Central/northern Alberta agricultural producers can drop off their unwanted pesticides at one of 16 collection locations from October 8 - 11. The collection program is operated by CleanFARMS, an industry-led, national not-for-profit agricultural waste management organization. A similar program was offered in southern Alberta in 2012. "CleanFARMS is committed to collecting unwanted or obsolete agricultural pesticides in an environmentally responsible way, at no cost to farmers," says Barry Friesen, general manager of CleanFARMS. Alberta farmers have a long history

Star residents Norma and Ed Drolet were digging potatoes in their daughter Kim Undin’s garden when they were visiting recently. This unusal and quirky potato sort of resembles a prehistoric creature. They felt the name Oscar was fitting, and came to Lamont to show him off for our readers.

of good stewardship practices. Since 1998 they have returned more than 270,000 kilograms of obsolete pesticides. After collection, the pesticides are taken to a licensed waste management facility where they are disposed of through high temperature incineration. "We know that caring for the environment is a top priority for Alberta's farmers. This becomes quite clear when we see their participation rates in programs like the obsolete pesticide collection program as well as our empty container recycling program," says Friesen. Farmers are invited to turn in their obsolete or unwanted agricultural pesticides from 9 am until 4 pm. CleanFarms will be in Lamont at Richardson Pioneer on October 11.

Cold and flu 101 - your guide to knowing the difference (NC) Many people confuse the flu with a bad cold – so what's the difference and how do you properly treat it? In some ways they are similar, both influenza, commonly referred to as “the flu,” and the common cold are both viral respiratory infections, affecting the nose, throat and lungs. They are spread from person to person through airborne droplets that are sneezed or coughed up by an infected person. In other cases, the viruses can be spread when a person touches an infected surface and then touches their nose, mouth or eyes. This is the reason why

these illnesses are most easily spread in crowded conditions such as schools or the workplace. But the flu and a common cold usually have different symptoms, and are associated with different complications. “Influenza is associated with more serious complications when compared with the common cold,” says Bowen Chen, Target Pharmacist. “It can lead to pneumonia or respiratory failure and can potentially be life threatening, so it has to be taken very seriously – this is especially relevant in at-risk

The Six Common Reasons for Prearranging Funerals Today, more individuals and families are making the decision to prearrange their funerals than ever before. Because of the factors such as inflation, fewer extended family members living close by, and other changes in our society, planning your own funeral can bring peace-of-mind, and that makes a lot of sense. In a recent survey, these were the most common reasons people gave for prearranging their own funerals: 1. Lets your wishes be known 2. Reduces stress for friends and family at an already emotional time 3. Saves money 4. Guarantees your family will never have to pay more for your funeral — no matter what happens with inflation 5. Shows you care 6. Relieves your loved ones of the financial responsibility

Report card stress is reduced with open communication (NC) It won’t be long before parents start to think - and worry - about the arrival of the first report card. While this event can be stressful for parents and students alike, Dr. Nick Whitehead, the CEO of Oxford Learning Centres, says a key to eliminating such stress is open communication with your child’s school and teachers. “Parents and teachers may not have time for weekly sit-down meetings, or even lengthy telephone calls, but in the age of e-mail, there’s no reason for parents to be out-of-the-loop on what their child is up to at school,” he explains. “Waiting for the first report card can be risky. Why wait to discover if your child is struggling?

Instead, regular e-mail communication with the teacher can lessen stress and make parents aware of problem areas before issues get out of control.” It’s not uncommon for parents to be confused by their child’s report card. Changing schedules, complicated terminology, and formal language add to the stress. “Many parents,” says Dr. Whitehead, “bring their child's report card to us at our Oxford centres, to help them make sense of what it is telling them.” There is plenty that parents can do daily to stay on top of their child’s academic progress. Here, for example, Oxford Learning gives us a few more helpful tips:

• Communicate with the teacher every week. It takes five minutes to ask how your child is doing. • Review past report cards. Issues from last year are likely to reappear, so review previous reports, and watch out for reoccurring trouble. • Follow up when a test is returned to your child. How did it go? Were the results what you were expecting? • Go online. The Internet is a wonderful tool to keep informed. If your child’s class has a web page, log on and get involved. • Don’t wait. If there are any issues, seek help as soon as you learn of them, rather than waiting to discuss them after report cards come home.

Take the necessary steps to protect yourself from cybercrime (NC) The Internet is an unparalleled tool, entertainer, and a lifestyle friend, but it’s just as easy to lose everything or become a victim of cybercrime. The amount of personal information we share online is staggering and that is exactly what criminals are searching for. So while you are online paying your electricity bill, chatting with your great aunt, or treating yourself to that new sweater you’ve been wanting, be sure to take steps not to fall prey to cyber criminals. To start with, here are a few tips to protect yourself, all that you have, and to prevent such cybercrime as identity theft, financial fraud, hacking

and more: • Use different passwords for different accounts and avoid using automatic login features that save your username and password. • Be careful about sharing your location, work schedule, or vacation details. These tell people if your home is empty, and where you can be found. • Do not reply to, or click on links in any email that looks suspicious. Remember that links shared by friends can be malicious too, and they might not even know it. • Be cautious of emails from financial institutions, Internet service providers and other organizations asking you to provide or update personal information online.

Baba’s nominated for Travel Alberta award Michelle Pinon Editor

Hazel Anaka has her fingers crossed. Anaka, co-ordinator of the Babas and Borshch Ukrainian Festival, announced it is a finalist in Travel Alberta’s ALTO Awards competition for

Baba Magda

marketing excellence. Babas and Borshch is up against Parkland County and Jasper. “We’re in a bit of a David and Goliath scenario in our category,” admitted Anaka, but said they “haven’t lost faith” and would be waiting in the wings to hear the news when a winner is announced during a special awards gala in Banff later this month. “The nomination is huge because it means a professional, credible, outside entity has seen something of value in what we did and is recognizing it.” In addition, “From a practical (marketing) perspective, we can use their (Travel Alberta’s) logo and this nomination (and hopefully the win) on our website and other social media to let the

world know about the event and thereby capitalize on the recognition.” Anaka stated the whole experience has been filled with pleasant surprises, unexpected success and lots of blessings. The experience began early in 2013 when the festival was first announced. With the assistance and expertise of Jim Newman, economic development manager at Lamont County, they were able to make the first annual Babas and Borshch Ukrainian Festival a resounding success. Anaka said there were many people to thank for the role each of them played in the success of the festival, and she wanted to acknowledge them publicly.

On October 2nd Andrew School staff held a little party for newly retired secretary, Joan Romaniuk. After faithfully serving this school community for the last 29 years, Joan decided to spend more time enjoying her family, home, and garden. This informal get together was a chance to visit and thank her for her many years of service. She is missed, but only lives across the school grounds so there are plenty of opportunities to see her again.

EIPS addresses bus parking issues Michelle Pinon Editor

Following first hand observation, information gathering, and direct feedback; student transportation staff have made a few changes to bus parking at Lamont High and Elementary Schools last week. According to Elk Island Public Schools (EIPS), student transportation staff visited Lamont last week to view the buses arriving at Lamont High. “They (student transportation staff) looked at the viability of parking buses on the northside of the school, and they met with the two school principals, bus contractors and bus operators to gather input and feedback from everyone involved.” Lisa Weder, director of student transportation, added that: “Student transportation staff visited Lamont again a few times later last week to see how the changes were working. The earlier dismissal time for Lamont Elementary and

angle parking of the buses is working great to help us ensure safe dropoff and pick-up of Lamont students.” Weder outlined the changes that were made after the meeting. They include: *Morning drop-off will remain the same except buses will pull up to the sidewalk. *Student Transportation will order signage and have it installed in yellow and black as has been the current practice at other schools clearly indicating: “For Student Safety, Buses Only, 8:15 8:45 and 3:15 - 3:45. “The yellow and black really stands out and has been a success at other school sites,” added Weder. *Signage will also be ordered indicating Parent Drop Off is located on the north side of the school. *In the afternoon, buses will angle park. “This will block off any movement in the parking lot as well as keep the buses closer together which will assist administration with supervision.” *Lamont Elementary

will dismiss students five minutes earlier (3:18) so that the buses can be parked before the students leave Lamont High. *Lines were spray painted early last week while the buses were angle parked to assist and prep for permanent lines to be painted.” *The curb at the west entrance will be cut to widen the area to allow for easier exit for buses. *Student Transportation and Facility Services are working together to make arrangements for permanent lines and modifying the curb. It was also determined that using the northside of the school is not an option for pick-up and drop-off as the roadway is not wide enough, the stop sign at the four-way stop would be concealed, and there would have to be a sidewalk put in to the roadway as currently there is a green belt,” added Weder.

FIRE

Matches and Lighters Are Not Toys These are tools for adults, and are not to be used without supervision. They should be stored in a secure place where kids can’t reach them.

Plan and Practice an Escape Route Create at least two ways out of every room in the home. Practice getting out quickly.

Keep a Flashlight Charged and Handy If there’s a fire in the home, it can become smokey and too dark to see. Use a flashlight to get out or signal for help.

Faces of courage seen during MADD presentation Michelle Pinon Editor

Mackenize Donohue is terrified of public speaking, but with the support of her friends and teacher she was able to stand before her schoolmates at Lamont High last Wednesday to talk about what courage means to her. “I think courage is something that you find inside yourself.” To do something you would not normally do and build up something inside of yourself and do it. “See, sometimes; all we need is for people to believe in us.” Aydan Connolly was also petrified, but also Aydan Connolly went before the assembly to talk about courage. Not one for following the dictionary definition, Connolly told the students that

courage to her is to get out of bed every morning. “It took me a ton of courage to speak up here, and I don’t feel as ridiculous as I should.” Connolly said courage is many things, and that you need courage for everything. “Courage is going skydiving like you’ve always wanted. Courage is standing up for what you believe in. Courage is having anxiety and going to a big party with your friends. Courage is being able to express yourself without fear of what people think of you. Courage is telling that friend who you don’t want to hurt that top just doesn’t work on them. Courage is exploring different topics and learning different things, like learning European history and calligraphy.” Jamie Fisher also exemplified great courage. Fisher, a school outreach field representative with MADD (Mothers Against Drunk Driving) told the students about the day his mother was killed by a drunk driver. “Exactly what you saw in that fictional film happened to my mother,” said Fisher. One day a police officer knocked on the door to inform him that his mother had been killed by a drunk driver. Those are

the worst words a person can hear, and he admitted they they haunt him to this day. Fisher told the students that impaired driving is no accident. “Now you’ve seen the damage after the fact. So what can we do about preventing it.” He stressed the importance of having a designated driver, not allowing anyone to drive if they are impaired, Mackenzie Donohue and to call 911 with a license plate number, description of the vehicle, and what street they are driving on if they see an impaired driver. Fisher asked the students if they would have the courage to make the call if they were put into the same situation? He also asked the students to have the courage to promise each other to not drink and drive.

Lamont Councillors Seek Re-election for upcoming term Cont’d From page 2 Wayne Field is also looking for the opportunity to be re-elected. Field has resided in Lamont for 37 years and served on council for 23 of those years. He has served on many committees, boards, and commissions, and has a list of future priorities he would like to see reach fruitition. Field would like to see council put in a five to 10 year infrastructure upgrade plan, find ways to foster commercial and light industrial growth, improve communication with community members and groups, and upgrade the park and greenbelt spaces. "I want Lamont to be an attractive, affordable town for residents and business owners," adds Field, who formerly Wayne Feild owned and operated a GM dealership in Lamont for 16 years. He currently is fleet sales manager at Southfort Chevrolet. Field is the past president of the Lamont Lions Club and served as Lamont Fire Chief for seven years. "I have volunteered and participated at numerous community events." He also enjoys golf, curling and fishing. Steve Sharun is also seeking re-election. Sharun, his wife Shiela and their four daughters all graduated from Lamont High School, and have lived in the community for the past 22 years. Sharun served for two years as the mayor and has sat on council for 12 years. He, too, has volunteered with several commnity groups including: the Lamont Lions Club, Lamont Curling Club, minor ball, figure skating and on several committees with the United Church. As for his platform, Sharun would like to continue

THANK YOU!

To the residents of the Town of Lamont Thank you for the confidence you have shown in acclaiming me as mayor. I greatly appreciate your support and look forward to continuing to serve you as mayor for the next four years.

Mayorr Billl Skinner

to make the town a better and safe place for parents to raise, play and educate their children. He also wants to continue working with council and members of the business community to grow Lamont. Sharun also wants to continue to work hard and listen to ratepayers’ concerns and ideas as well as streamline the way the town does business with other businesses in the local and surrounding area. "I want to continue using contract professionals to help us develop our town and plan for the future." He promises to continue working hard with the Lamont Health Care Centre to provide excellent care for the sick and elderly. Steve Sharun Gail Hrehorets has sat on council for the past five years and her ultimate goal is to make Lamont "the community to live in." She believes she still has a lot to offer on council and wants to see the community continue to grow. To that end, she wants to establish a strategic plan with other members of council, helping to set direction, goals and objectives. Hrehorets wants to continue fostering open and honest communication as well as fiscal responsibility. Since her time on council, she has chaired the corporate services committee that

P Gail Hrehorets

update more than 55 policies and five bylaws. As chair of the park planning committee, she has overseen the process of developing a needs assessment and established a plan for implementation. Councillor Sylvia McDonald is asking for residents to re-elect her. She is just completing her first term of office and hopes to continue the plans council has put in place over the past three years. "We've been doing a lot of things to grow the community," says McDonald, who would like the opportunity to see those plans come to fruitition. Some of those plans and projects include park redevelopment as well as the instillation of water and sewer lines across Highway 15. Community minded, McDonald has been involved and participated in several projects, activities and special events. McDonald is the president of the Lamont Sylvia McDonald Parents and Tots group, co-facilitator for the Play and Learn group in Mundare, and member of the regional parent advisory committee for Family Support for Children with Disabilities. While on council, McDonald has served on corporate services, public services, library board, student advisory council, and protection of persons and property committees. "I think the town needs a face on council who is involved in the community." She would like to continue to be that face, and serve four more years on council.

Strong Results for EIPS Students on 2012/2013 Diploma Exams The results are in, and Grade 12 students in Elk Island Public Schools (EIPS) who wrote their Diploma Exams in June 2013 have achieved some exceptional results. This week, Alberta Education released province-wide Diploma Exam Final Course Mark results. Nearly nine out of 10 EIPS students who wrote Diploma Exams in June 2013 met the Acceptable Standard in all subjects, with almost 10 out of 10 (98 per cent) of students’ Final Course Marks meeting the Acceptable Standard in

English 30-1, English 302, Social Studies 30-1, and Social Studies 30-2. “Our students and staff have worked very hard, and they should be proud of these results,” said EIPS Board Chair Barb McNeill. “It’s motivating for students and staff to see their hard work pay off, and we are proud to see continued success in all areas of study.” A Standard of Excellence result refers to students who demonstrate a mastery of the core subject material. An Acceptable Standard

refers to students who demonstrate an understanding of the subject material. A backgrounder with more details on Diploma Exam results is attached. EIPS uses numerous inputs, including Diploma Exam results, to evaluate the success of the student learning experience. Staff and school leadership will review the results of individual schools as part of their commitment to continuous improvement. Principals will review these results with staff

Spencer Beach will be sharing his inspiring life story with students, staff, parents and community members at Lamont High School this Friday, Oct. 11. Everyone is invited to attend his special presentation at 12:30 p.m. Spencer Beach is a motivational speaker who wants to reach out and send a message of survival and life in the face of tragedy. On his website, he explains his chance encounter with a flash fire, giving him third and fourth degree burns to nearly his entire body. “I learned that sometimes tragedy chooses you for no reason at all” “Holding onto the fading thoughts of my wife and the developing child within her womb gave me the courage to find a way out. But I had no idea what survival would mean.”

CORRECTION It was incorrectly stated in the headline of Mundare ATB story which appeared in the Oct. 1 edition that $1,000 was donated to the fire department when in fact $500 was donated.

The Lamont Leader (Lamont, Alberta), October 8, 2013- 29

Bruderheim Meteorite selected as town’s new identity symbol SUBMITTED BY THE TOWN OF BRUDERHEIM The Town of Bruderheim is excited to announce its new identity symbol, the Bruderheim Meteorite, a truly unique and scientifically important historic event. On March 4th, 1960 at 1:06 a.m., a bright fireball tore through the Earth’s atmosphere. The giant rock detonated, sending shards of stone and iron raining down just north of Bruderheim. Local farmers found the fragments and boulders in their barnyards and fields, the largest weighing more than 60 pounds. Nearly 700 meteorite fragments were found with a total weight of over 660 pounds, the largest recovered meteorite fall in all of Canada. The fragments were later distributed to museums and research facilities around the world. “We’ve always believed we should shoot for the stars,” says Bruderheim Mayor, Karl Hauch. “So this symbol really is quite fitting. And we’re proud to be the only community in the country that can claim to be home to the largest meteorite recovered in Canada.” Seeking to complement its recently updated brand, the Town of Bruderheim initiated an Identity Symbol Campaign in April of 2013. A fresh identity symbol would visually tell the story of Bruderheim, build civic pride, and help to draw people to live, visit, and do business in the community. Bruderheim Town Council set out with six selection criteria in mind to ensure the responsible selection of an identity symbol. These criteria included: *Appeal: Would the symbol draw people to the Town? *Flexibility: Would the symbol allow the community to grow and change while still relating to the symbol? *Scope: Would the symbol honour the Town’s past, present, and future? *Image: Would the symbol reflect the spirit of the community? *Marketability: Would the symbol be easy to market alongside the current Town brand? *Feasibility: Would the Town be able to maintain the symbol over the long-term with relation to cost and effort? “Town Council knew we’d have to consider a number of factors,” says Hauch. “We had to choose something that would fit well with our current identity, celebrate our past but still allow us to grow, and be cost effective.” Town Council sought public input as another important consideration in the decision process. Extensive community engagement took place online, as well as at the Bruderheim Town Office and community events. Students at the Bruderheim Elementary School were encouraged to take part with the assistance of Principal Sven Danzinger. “The public response was exceptional. We had high voter turnouts and it was great to see so much excitement about the process,” adds Hauch. Once information from the public was collected, Council narrowed down four potential symbols, which included the Bruderheim Meteorite, the Bruderheim Agricultural Society’s Prairie Schooner, a Historic Gardens concept, and a Heritage Days Event. The idea for the Bruderheim Meteorite symbol was suggested by a survey respondent, and the concept of the Historic Gardens was brought to council by a dedicated Bruderheim resident and business owner. Members of the public were invited to vote for their favourite option from July to mid-September,

and a total of 359 votes were received. While visitor’s votes were very important to the process and to the Town, residents and business owners held voting priority, as they will ultimately be impacted by the identity symbol chosen. Analysis of the votes showed a very clear winner. The greatest support was for the Bruderheim Meteorite, which received 58% of the total resident / business owner votes. The Prairie Schooner and Historic Gardens came very close to tying for second place, receiving 18% and 17% of votes respectively. “Every option was a great option. It was a tough decision for Town Council to make,” says Hauch. “The Bruderheim Meteorite was the only option with significant public support that met all six of council’s selection criteria. The cost of adopting the Meteorite as our symbol is very minimal, and we can easily do more with it as funds arise. Opportunities for creating buzz are potentially endless and exciting, and this symbol could attract visitors for years to come.” Chris Herd, Associate Professor in the Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences at the University of Alberta, is also excited that the Bruderheim Meteorite will now get more exposure. “Aside from being the most significant meteorite fall by weight in Canadian history, the Bruderheim Meteorite and trades made from the fragments are responsible for most of the growth of the University of Alberta Meteorite Collection,” says Herd, who is Curator of the collection. “Our collection is the largest University-based meteorite collection in Canada. And it still contains

over 145 kg of Bruderheim meteorites!” The possibility of partnering with the University of Alberta to bring a piece of the meteorite back to Bruderheim will be pursued in the future. “This whole process has been very meaningful,”says Mayor Hauch. “Town council and administration has learned a lot about the values of our local population, and it reinforced that we have many great things to take pride in. The Prairie Schooner, for example, is a fantastic addition to the town’s historic resources, and we are very grateful to the Bruderheim Agricultural Society for going through with that project. We plan on helping to advertise the schooner, to get the word out there that such a beautiful piece of our history is available for viewing.” Plans are currently underway for creating an implementation and promotion plan for the Bruderheim Meteorite Identity Symbol. Town council would like to say a huge thanks to town administration, staff and Jill Yanch for her tireless effort working on this very important and very significant point in time for Bruderheim’s history. The Town is excited to move forward and would also like to thank all members of the public that took the time to be a part of the campaign. “We may like to shoot for the stars, but we’ve got a lot of them here already; our residents,” boasts Hauch. “Our new identity symbol is the result of their suggestions, comments, and involvement. We can take this symbol now and move forward into the future.”

Teen Centre project entered in AVIVA online contest Votes needed to propel innovative idea past qualifying round Michelle Pinon Editor

Sara Rindero is all about creating positive change. Rindero, head of family and community services (FCSS) in the region, is also trying to raise more than $100,000 for the Lamont County Youth Centre Project. To that end, she is reaching out to as many of her contacts as possible in the hopes of having them enter an online contest through the Aviva Community Fund. The goal is to develop a fully functioning youth centre that would provide access to programs and services five evenings per week. In order to reach that goal, Rindero needs people to vote for the youth centre project on the Aviva website in order for a chance to advance through the qualifying round and beyond.

Under her idea (proposal), that was created on Sept. 24, Rindero would also like to see expansion to a second location in the Town of Lamont in future years. “The need for two centres has been identified due to the large youth population in both towns and the absence of public transportation. The centre’s mission will be to provide resources and information to local youth, including, but not limited to: drug and alcohol awareness, self-esteem building, job training and enhancement, nutrition and mentorship.” In her overview, Rindero also pointed out that there is no public transportation. While purchase of a passenger van would be a huge benefit, there is no available funding and it falls outside of the organization’s mandate. “However, if sponsorship was available, this vehicle would be an amazing asset.” Rindero also outlined the role and responsibilities of the youth council that would promote youth volunteer opportunities and community enhancement initiatives.

Voting for the qualifying round began Sept. 30 and will continue through to Oct. 14. To get involved visit the Aviva Community Fund website. “Many, many thanks go out to those folks from Lamont County FCSS that have made the Bruderheim Youth Centre a reality this past week. Thanks also to Town of Bruderheim’s Judy Koschade for helping paint the Youth centre. There were over 20 youth at the Grand Opening.” stated Bruderheim Mayor Hauch. “Many thanks to Sara Rindero of the FCSS for putting in the donation application called the Lamont County Youth Centre Project from the Aviva Community Fund. This would go a long way towards helping youth at risk in our county!” All a person has to do is simply log on facebook and vote once a day for the next two weeks and if we get enough votes the Aviva Community fund kicks in over $100,000 to support our Youth! Please go & vote!

The Lamont Leader (Lamont, Alberta), October 8, 2013- 31

Strong Performance for EIPS students on 2012/2013 Provincial Achievement Test Elk Island Public School (EIPS) students who wrote Provincial Achievement Tests (PATs) in June 2013 have something to cheer about today – great results. This week, Alberta Education released province-wide PAT results. A significant number of EIPS students who were in Grade 3, 6, or 9 last year and wrote these tests achieved the Acceptable Standard in all subject areas. As well, an increased number of students achieved the Standard of Excellence. The PATs are a snapshot of student achievement in various curriculums from the Alberta Program of Studies including: Grade 3 English Language Arts, French Language Arts, and Math; Grade 6 English Language Arts, French Language Arts, Math, Science, and Social Studies; Grade 9 English Language Arts, French Language Arts, Math, Science, Social Studies, and Knowledge and Employability.

“We’re thrilled to see these results,” said EIPS Board Chair Barb McNeill. “The increase in students achieving at the Standard of Excellence level is a testament to the commitment of both our students and staff. We are very proud of this achievement.” The results from the PATs can be used to inform student achievement of curricular outcomes in the respective programs, future teacher practice, future school planning, and future school board planning. Analysis of the results allows teachers, schools, and school boards to focus on both areas of strength and areas that require further reflection and investigation. In 2012/2013, the percentage of students in EIPS who achieved the Acceptable Standard and Standard of Excellence exceeded the provincial average in all subject areas for Grades 3,6, and 9 PATs written in English. The 2012-2013 school year showed exceptional outcomes in

Grade 3 students who wrote their tests in English achieved the Acceptable Standard in Mathematics • a n d Language Arts, and 28 per cent of Grade 3 students attained the Standard of Excellence in Mathematics; The Standard of Excellence in Science was achieved by 38 per cent of Grade 6 students, and nearly nine out of 10 EIPS • students in Grade 6 achieved the Acceptable Standard in all core subjects written in English;

EIPS Science results with an increase in Grade 6 and Grade 9 students achieving both standards and exceeding provincial averages. A standard of excellence refers to students who demonstrate a mastery of the core subject material. An acceptable standard refers to students who demonstrate an understanding of the subject material. A backgrounder with more details on test results is attached. Highlights include: Nearly nine out of 10

The Acceptable Standard in English Language Arts was achieved by 90 per cent of Grade 9 students, with strong results in • the 75 per cent range for Science, Social Studies, and Mathematics. As of the 2013/2014 school year, EIPS Grade 3 students will no longer write PATs. During Education Week 2013, Minister of Education Jeff Johnson announced PATs would be replaced by a series of new computer-based tests, known as Student Learning Assessments (SLAs).

EIPS is one of Alberta’s largest school divisions, serving more than 16,350 students in 43 schools. We are proud to be an integral part of our communities, including Sherwood Park, Fort Saskatchewan, Vegreville, Strathcona and Lamont counties, and the western portion of the County of Minburn
