Students vote for Elections Canada at H.J. Cody School

BY JASMINE O’HALLORAN-HAN

The common area of the H.J. Cody School was buzzing with student activity as they took part in the student votes for Elections Canada Tuesday afternoon.

Each grade was invited to take part in this voting process as students did prior research on which of the four candidates they wanted to vote for.

Six students ran the voting stations with the hopes that 70 per cent of the school’s students would vote said teacher Kelsey Wilson.

“I think we might go past

that, it shows our students are quite engaged,” she said.

The students were thrilled to take part in this vote as most of them are not yet voting age and this was a way for them to be involved with politics.

The ballots are legitimate but say student vote on them so they don’t go towards the election, but it’s a way for the students voices to be heard.

The school is one of 7,000 schools participating and students votes will be kept track of and come election night, the results of the students’ votes will be shown.

“They are super excited,” Wilson said. “Most of them don’t get to vote and for them this is a way to get involved in politics whereas before they may not have been able to.”

The students did not vote blindly as Wilson said

they did their research on which candidate they wanted to vote for.

“They have been building for a couple weeks thinking about what they want to do and who they want to vote for,” Wilson said.

“All the classes have had

a chance to learn about politics.”

The students are looking forward to the votes being shown online and are curious as to how the legitimate voting numbers will compare with the students votes.

Overall Wilson said this voting has been very popular in the school and the turn out of students has been huge as they are all excited with the chance to be able to vote. reporter@sylvanlakenews.com

Federal election candidates in a nutshell SYLVAN LAKE NEWS STAFF

BLAINE CALKINS Conservative Party Candidate

JEFF ROCK Liberal Party Candidate

DOUG HART New Democratic Party Candidate

1. Tell us about yourself I was born and raised on the family farm north of Lacombe where my parents still live today. I graduated from Lacombe Composite High School and have always been active in my community. As a youth in Central Alberta, I participated in many different activities such as Beef 4-H, Army Cadets, Minor Hockey, Minor Baseball and high school golf. As an adult, I became involved in local politics and spent time on Council for the Town of Lacombe before becoming the Member of Parliament for the Constituency of Wetaskiwin.

After high school, I went to the University of Alberta where I received a Bachelor of Science in Zoology. I hold a Certificate in Law Enforcement from Lethbridge Community College and a Diploma in Computer Systems Technology from Red Deer College.

When I am not in Ottawa working as the Member of Parliament, I enjoy spending time with my family and

community, whether it is taking my son to hockey, my daughter to cello lessons or just heading down to a coffee shop to hear about local issues.

2. Why should voters choose you?

The reason that I first ran to become a Member of Parliament had everything to do with changing government, reducing wasteful bureaucracy and standing up for families. At the time I had a very young family and wanted to create a Canada that enabled my wife and I to make good choices for my children.

I have been a Member of Parliament for approximately 10 years now and in that time, our Government has reduced taxes allowing Canadians to keep more of their hard-earned money in their pockets. We have introduced programs to help families make their own child care choices.

3. What issues are most vital to you?

Lower Taxes - Our Government’s low-tax pledge is something we

1. Tell us about yourself I was born and raised in Sudbury Ontario with deep rural roots on Manitoulin Island. At 18 I went to McGill University to pursue a Bachelor’s of Science in Microbiology &Immunology after which I felt called into ministry and attended Seminary also at McGill obtaining a Masters of Divinity. Finally, I am Ordained United Church Minister. I moved to Alberta 6 years ago to be part of the hope and entrepreneurial spirit of in this province as part of the Alberta advantage.

Currently I serve as Minister of Word, Sacrament and Pastoral Care at a United Church in downtown Red Deer.

I’ve been involved in many non-profit agencies and sat on municipal committees as well as national initiatives. I’ve been involved in The Remembering the,Children Society that honours the students who died at the Red Deer Indian Industrial School and the local Truth and Reconciliation Commission Organizing Committee.

I have a Greyhound-Dalmatian Chaz who is a rescue with a heartbreaking past of abuse, but has found his furever home.

I love the outdoors and am a runner, skiier, 1. Tell us about yourself Professionally I am a Nurse, Nurse Educator and College Administrator. During my career, I have worked at Alberta Hospital Ponoka (now CCMHBI), Red Deer Regional Hospital, Red Deer College, and Grande Prairie Regional College. Educationally, I hold two diplomas in Nursing, an Undergraduate Degree in Nursing, and two Masters Degrees (Educational Administration, and Science in Health Promotion). I have lived my whole life in Central Alberta where my wife Ina and I have raised our four adult children, and been involved in our community in many capacities. My community service includes many national and provincial boards regarding post-secondary education, for which I received the 2005 Premier’s Medal of Excellence for my contribution. We live on an acreage in the County of Ponoka where I enjoy my garden and puttering on my classic muscle cars and trucks.

promised back in 2005 and I am proud that we have been able to lower taxes for all Canadians.

By keeping our taxes low, we are keeping more money in the hands of hard-working Canadians.

Job Creation - Our number one priority is the economy – creating jobs and economic growth. Canada has led the G-7 in job creation since 2006 because we’ve made the right choices.

Expanding Trade - Canada is a trading nation and we’ve made historic strides to open new markets for Canadian businesses and their workers. The Trans-Pacific Partnership is the largest free trade deal in history. It provides almost 800 million new customers throughout the Asia-Pacific region for Canadian goods and services. Being part of this agreement is good for Canada and will create jobs and help protect our economy.

Supporting Families - Families are the bedrock of our communities, and, by extension, our country. When

snowshoer, swimmer, hiker, camper and lover of the arts, supporting the Red Deer Symphony Orchestra and the Central Alberta Arts scene.

2. Why should voters choose you?

I bring a youthfulness and enthusiasm to politics as well as a deep sense of hope that we can and will come together as Canadians and undo the trend of polarizing politics and build a constructive future together.

I bring integrity, honesty and transparency to politics as well as some dignity. I’ve been told at the forums these last weeks that I am definitely “passionate”. I think Canadians want real change and that’s what I and the Liberal Party seek to offer.

3. What issues are most vital to you I’m deeply concerned about the balance between the economy and the environment. I think it is essential that we get that balance right to help our oil and gas sector getthe product to market while handing the next generation as good of a world as we have inherited. I think denying climate change is completely irresponsible in the 21stcentury, but so is demonizing the oil and gas industry. I’m committed to getting the balance right.

2. Why should voters choose you?

I have always been politically active and have long social democratic roots tracing back generations.

I believe in public ownership and administration of essential services like health, education, and seniors care. Recent provincial and federal governments have repeatedly supported corporations and regulated citizens; instead, we need elected officials that will support citizens and regulate corporations. I have the courage of my convictions to make that promise to you.

3. What issues are most vital to you?

This election will be remembered as the election with “weapons of mass distraction”. With our dollar at 76 cents U.S., and unemployment near 7% (higher in Central Alberta), the Conservative Government has created a climate of fear and division by introducing “red herrings” to the national discussion, rather than talking about substantive issues like job creation, the envi-

families thrive, Canada thrives. I am proud that our Government continues to support families and make Canada a great place to raise a family.

Supporting Seniors - Our Government has lowered taxes and enhanced benefits to make life more affordable for Canadian seniors. And, under our plan, single and widowed seniors will get new, major tax relief to help them live their later years in dignity and comfort.

4. Why are you running?

I am running in this election because I believe that our country requires strong leadership. The Conservative Party under the direction of Prime Minister Stephen Harper has proven many times over in the past ten years that we are able to make the difficult decisions and to stand up for Canadians whenever necessary.

I believe there is still more work to be done and I am excited about the prospect of representing the constituents of Red Deer - Lacombe.

I’m also committed to Nation to Nation dialogue with First Nations and think indigenous issues are not just another issue in this election but the issue as we look at the 94 recommendations of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission that the Liberal Party is committed to implementing and the need for an inquiry on Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women.

4. Why are you running?

I decided to step up and run at the suggestion of a friend who said “you wouldn’t run for the party of my choosing, but you need to run”. She told me that right as I set offon a retreat for “young activists and leaders” with famed writer Parker Palmer. At that retreat I felt a niggling in my heart to run and there I bought Palmer’s newest book “Healing the Heart of Democracy” which suggests theonly way to save politics from the cynicism and polarization we are witnessing is for people to step up with radical integrity, honesty and vulnerability. You can’t fight thelies with more lies or the negativity with more negativity. That’s what I see from the other guys, but what I see from Justin Trudeau is a hope-filled vision for the future ofour country that refuses to step into the politics of division or attack ads.

ronment, and the economy. Day care, pharmacare, post-secondary education, housing, and seniors care costs continue to rise, while unemployment, our low dollar, and international confidence in our economy go unmentioned. I hope voters realize we need pan-Canadian solutions and strategies for seniors care, day care, infrastructure and education programs; not just rhetoric, mantra, and fear.

The New Democrats want to move Canada in the direction of sharing and co-operation. We intend to foster a healthy environment for business to thrive and prosper, help young people work and raise their children and to plan for post-secondary education, and generate well-paying secure jobs with benefits, to get Canadians working again, and plan for secure retirements.

4. Why are you running?

The Federal Government funds Health and Education, but in the ten years of our Conservative feder-

al Government, there has not been a single First Ministers Conference on Health or Education or Seniors Services. We need Pan-Canadian strategies on seniors care, health delivery, affordable housing, and child care. How can this happen when the provinces and territories that delivery the programs never sit down with the Federal Government that funds them?

Canada needs fresh leadership and ideas – not more of the same.

We need all of us working together to solve issues of our time, from climate change, to the economy, to job-creation. We can solve these problems by harnessing the creative energy of Canadians. The New Democrats want to replace competition with co-operation, hate with hope, and the politics of fear with the politics of fair.

We need to elect officials that go to Ottawa to represent us, rather politicians who come back from Ottawa and represent their leader to us in our constituency.

Coats for kids seeks community donations for all ages

BY JASMINE O’HALLORAN-HAN The Sylvan Lake and Area Community Partners’ Association is looking for donations for their coats for kids program again this season.

This program provides coats not only to children but to adults and anyone in need of coats for the winter season.

The community is invited to drop off new and gently used coats to the association and staff will take the coats to be cleaned at a laundry mat.

“People are already starting to come in to get coats,” said Ingrid Soanes, with the Community Partners’ Association.

The Association accepts coats for all ages from newborns to full grown adults as Soanes added everybody needs a coat.

The program has been running for years now, with last year’s program running from October to March with the

association serving 492 clients with Soanes adding last winter was a mild winter.

“There’s definitely different circumstances with everyone,” Soanes said. “Some families can’t afford it because they have two or three kids, maybe a husband got laid off or someone isn’t work. There’s different circumstances. We had a lady who looks after a boy for a friend and she knows the child doesn’t have a coat and she came in and got a coat, the situations vary.”

Even though the association served 492 clients, Soanes said this was still not enough and there is still a desperate need for winter gear - last year in particular it came down to coats in youth sizes and ski pants.

“We had next to nothing for ski pants so we had to ask for people to help and donate if they could for that age of ski pant,” explained Soanes. reporter@sylvanlakenews.com

She said the most fun thing about this celebration was seeing the smiles on the students faces as they chased the turkey.

It was also great to listen to the children and all that they gave thanks for as she added they have been learning about the importance of giving thanks to their families, community and to Jesus.

She said the students explained they were thankful for family, food, shelter, Jesus, friends, school, pets and various other things.

“In our school the teachers talk about the importance of family, Christ, friends as well as showing respect and kindness to one another,” Trieber said.

said assistant principal Tracy Trieber. “We’re promoting school spirit.”

When the last grade was finished chasing the turkey, students names were drawn and three turkeys, three hams and 13 pies were given away, among various other prizes.

She said the feedback they get from the parents of the children who win a turkey or a ham is great and is the talk of the holiday at home.

Trieber said the students were excited for this celebration and had been preparing their songs and little costumes for the past week.

“They are thrilled to chase our lovely turkey who is Judith McIntyre, she has been the turkey for 20 years,” Trieber said.

Largest food drive to date held in support of local food bank

BY JENNA SWAN SYLVAN LAKE NEWS The Sylvan Lake Food Bank filled their walls full of food last Thursday night thanks to the Girl Guides, Brownies, Pathfinders, Sparks, and Scouts of Sylvan Lake who collected 350 bags of groceries and $480 during their annual food drive.

The Food Bank stated it was the largest food drive they have seen in a number of years, with Girl Guides leader Judy Scanland stating the community support was ‘outstanding’ and ‘phenomonal’.

The guiding leader stated not only is the food drive a great way to help collect food and funds for those in need in the community it also shows participants how many people there are who go without adequate food in the community.

“There’s a lot of talk about how there are people just in our backyards that need our help,” she added. “We touch on the idea of waste not/want not and the premise around not wasting food because

there is always some one else who could use it. Both the guides and the scouts recieve badges for participating in the event and they are always extremely happy to participate in the event.”

Scanland stated the kids are always blown away by how willing the community is to help them in their food drive.

“For what ever reason our food drive has become very successful and where as in past years it would be the leaders and a couple of volunteers help put away food, the food bank needed around 12 volunteers last night to help put away all of the food we collected last night,” said Scanland. “Just due to the size of the town we are never able to cover all of it, but the kids always try their hardest to do so, and sorry if we didn’t make it to your home but we are still accepting donations,” To make a food or money donation to the Food Bank call Pam at 403 505 5842 or Judy at 403 877 4371. editor@sylvanlakenews.com

Vehicle collisions involving children happen most often in September and October, followed by May and June, says Parachute, a national injury prevention organization. Back to school is a busy time with new routines and daylight decreasing. Teaching your child how to safely cross the road and recognizing when he is ready to do this alone are important.

Before letting your child cross a road alone, he needs to show you he can do it safely. To do this, he needs to understand where it’s safe to cross (such as corners and marked crosswalks) and be able to judge vehicle speeds and traffic gaps. He also needs to know how to make eye contact with drivers.

“Most children develop the skills to cross roads alone between nine and 11 years old,” says Carrie Herrick-Fitzgerald, a coordinator with AMA School Safety Patrol.

Flags of Remembrance to take place Saturday Oct. 17 at noon sharp

BY JASMINE O’HALLORAN-HAN SYLVAN LAKE NEWS Flags of Remembrance will yet again be raised on Oct. 17 and line both sides of Highway 11, representing the deceased and living Canadian veterans who have served and

fought for our country.

The ceremony will take place at 12 noon where the Red Deer Pipe and Drum band will introduce the ceremony’s beginnings.

Different from last year there will be horses there that will walk past the flags as they are being

raised. The crowd will then see a vintage World War II plane fly in recognition of the fallen veterans.

The crowd will then take a moment of silence to remember the thousands of veterans who selflessly gave their lives for our country.

Veteran Voices of Canada

executive director Allan Cameron will speak along with MCpl. Paul Franklin who is a veteran, activist and proud Canadian.

This year there will also be 12 flags representing 12,000 men and women who went missing while they were serving.

“We want people to look

’RE !

WE C K

BA

at the flags, understand what they represent and take a minute to think about it - if that’s even just one more minute than they would take normally throughout the year to think about it then that’s a positive thing,” Cameron said.

He is confident that the

event this year will have an even bigger impact on people as they gather to honour, remember and pay tribute to all those who went missing in action, fallen soldiers as well as those current and past serving members. reporter@sylvanlakenews.com

Town Council briefs Seeing The Important Things In an interesting experiment, a group of people were given a newspaper to read and asked to count the number of pictures in the entire paper. People quickly began the task. However, on the second page, in large letters were the words “Stop counting, there are 43 photos in this newspaper.” And, as an added bonus, halfway through the paper another message read, “Stop counting, tell the experimenter you have read this and collect $250.”

Some seriously counted photos on each and every page and missed both messages.

It’s the season of Thanksgiving. What challenges of life keep us so focused that we are

unable to see the things that really matter? It’s a given that each one reading this has something in their lives that take their attention. May each of us be able to pause and refocus on the things that truly raise our gratitude scale.

Life in a country free of war and terrorism, eyes to see the beauty of fall, ears to enjoy the laughter of a child, and privileges and resources that the majority of the world only wish for might start the list. How long is your list should you choose to make one?

May we truly see the things that are important to be Thankful for.

During the Regular Meeting of Council held on Tuesday night at the municipal buildings, Town Council debated a number of hot topics.

EXTENSION OF DEVELOPMENT PERMIT FOR COMMERCIAL STRIP MALL PASSED Council granted an extension to Polar Creek Industries Inc. in regards to the development of 5003 Lakeshore Drive, formerly the Shell Gas Station on the corner of Lakeshore and Centennial Street. Council granted approval to extend the permit for the start of the six bay commercial strip mall to Dec. 2016, with the developers listing the current economic climate as the reason for incompletion.

COUNCIL APPROVES DEVELOPMENT PERMIT FOR FACADE IMPROVEMENTS Blue Rock Management Ltd. was approved for facade improvements to an existing building located at 5037 50 St. Due to the location of the building, it is under the jurisdiction of the Waterfront Urban Design Guidelines and subject to certain architectural characteristics. The building is home to Bonavista Fine Art. Later in the meeting Council approved a grant to Bonavista Fine Art worth $7,500 as part of the Facade Improvement Pilot Project, which the Town launched in March of 2014 and is a concentrated effort to rehabilitate storefronts that would assist in attracting investors, developers and news businesses in the Waterfront Commercial District. The program is also designed to encourage retail and commercial building owners to invest in facade renovations and storefront upgrades by providing grants to cover a portion of renovation costs. Grants will be awarded to eligible applicants to cover up to 50% of the facade renovation costs, up to a maximum dollar value. The 2015 grant program will provide an incentive for 50th Street/Centennial Street buildings to complete facade upgrades that contribute to the Waterfront Area, by creating a more interesting and appealing street environment that attracts people and new businesses. The Town of Sylvan Lake encourages business owners in the Waterfront Area to apply for the grant by visiting their website at www.sylvanlake.ca and searching ‘The Facade Improvement Program”. continued on page 11

continued from page 10 COUNCIL APPROVES DEMOLITION Racoon Lodge (2006) Ltd. and owners Ravijeet Singh and Kulwinder Jit Kaur were approved by Council to demolish a cabin and detached garage located at 4516 50a Ave. The 860 sq. ft. wooden cabin and 340 sq. ft. garage located on the property were seen by owners to be in a ‘dilapidated state’ with the Town being made aware of complaints of the state of disrepair in which the cabin was in.

SYLVAN LAKE NOT TO PUT IN BID FOR ALBERTA 55+ GAMES At the August 24th Meeting of Council it was suggested the Town put in a bid to host the 2017 Alberta 55+ Game. Administration provided an assessment on the feasibility of the Town to host such an event and found they didn’t have adequate capability of accommodating the approximate 1800 participants, 500 guests, and 150 special guests. In addition the Town did not have adequate food service facilities and the questionable ability to raise the adequate funds with strain put on the community from the Nexsource Centre, Spray Park, etc.

NEW SCHOOL PLAYGROUND ZONE SIGNAGE TO APPEAR AROUND TOWN Council spent nearly an hour deliberating potential changes to Sylvan Lake’s school and playground zone speeds for motorists. It was suggested Council change speed limits from the standard provincial laws stating

30km/h from 7-8:30 a.m., 11 a.m.-1 p.m., and 2-3:30 p.m. to an all day 7 a.m.-9:30 p.m. alternative. However, after strong opposition from Council it was decided in the interest of motorists, a lack of vehicle pedestrian collisions in the past, and all having some of the slowest town speed limits in Alberta - a better solution would be to add provincially mandated speed limits mentioned above to existing signage around town to make it more visible for motorists to know what the proper speed was at that time.

TOWN MAY SEE PAID PARKING VISITORS AS EARLY AS MAY 2016 Perhaps the most hot button issue of the night, Council debated the idea of paid parking in the downtown core as well as around Centennial Park. Ultimately no decision was made other than that council was highly against asking residents of Sylvan Lake to pay for parking downtown.

Council deferred a decision for one months time and is asking administration to prepare and implement a plan to provide information and receive feedback from the public on the matter. Nearly all of Council agreed visitors to the community should play a role in the protection and maintenance of Lakeshore Drive, Centennial Park, and the revitalization of downtown - to this matter most agreed paid parking for visitors would be a solution. continued on page 12

Town Council briefs continued from page 11 COUNCIL HEARS RESULTS FROM REPEAT VISITATION SURVEY The Town conducted a survey over the summer months asking visitors if they had been to the town before, what made them decide to visit, what would enhance their trips, would they return, and where they were visiting from. 433 people were interviewed on the beach and at Centennial Park. It was found 65% had

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR To the Editor: I moved to Sylvan lake 11 years ago. My family has been fortunate enough to have found Dr. Fugler soon after and we couldn’t be happier.

He has never once not fit us into his busy schedule. He will squish us in at the end of his long day and never makes us feel rushed. His wait times in the front reception are minimal and many times we go in right on time. Dr. Fugler always takes the time to ask a few extra questions and explain things further than any doctor I have seen previous.

He makes my entire family comfortable and my girls love

Cheryl Hyvonen

to go to see him. His passion to help people really shows.

His staff are also wonderful.

Thank you Dr. Fugler for all you do to keep the health of our family - the Cummins: Hope, Chase, Carinton, Lane and Katherina.

Sincerely, Katherina Cummins Sylvan Lake, AB

To the Editor: I am unhappy with many of the things Stephen Harper has done, like his treatment of our veterans, farmers, and refugees, but these are just Harper-style Conservative policy.

These can be changed to restore the Canada we were proud of.

However, the burning of 16 Federal Research Libraries cannot be undone. Canadians and our research scientists in every field from health to environment and agriculture have lost over a 100 years worth of priceless information thrown into dumpsters in the name of austerity - the same austerity drive which prevented most of this material from

being saved onto computers.

Think of the generations of scientific work that has been destroyed by Conservatives who evidently do not believe in fact-based decisions, and vote for a better Canada.

If you want to read about this loss, the September 18, 2015 issue of Macleans Magazine has a well researched article called “Vanishing Canada; why we’re all losers in Ottawa’s war on data.”

The Town of Sylvan Lake thanks you for your patience, as we work to restore our local Aquatic Centre to good operating condition. A detailed Building Audit Report, and related recommendations for moving forward, was presented to Council on September 28, 2015. The Aquatic Centre Building Audit revealed that the building, overall, is sound and the pool basin itself is in good shape. However, the building suffers from premature deterioration due to an inadequate air handling system, which increased moisture/humidity levels in the facility.

There are also a number of other less extensive problems that need to be addressed.

Jenna Swan Editor

editor@sylvanlakenews.com Jasmine O’Halloran-Han Reporter

Council has approved a renovation budget of $3,500,000, with funding reallocated from projects that are currently funded in the 10-Year Capital Plan. These yet-to-be determined projects will be postponed or cancelled, and the money from those projects used to fund the Aquatic Centre repairs.

Public safety, stafÀng challenges, and the timeframe needed for various repairs, resulted in the decision to keep the facility closed until all repairs and upgrades are complete. The anticipated opening date is fall 2016.

The repairs/upgrades include: • Electrical: replacement of Àxtures, switches, etc.

• Architectural: replacement of pool deck, minor exterior Áashings, increase in change room space, and improvements to inclusive/barrier free washrooms to meet 2014 Alberta Building Code requirements • Structural: repair of corroded columns and roof trusses, upgrade of roof trusses to accommodate snowdrift load from NexSource Centre (the latter work was planned prior to the audit).

• Mechanical: replacement of entire heating, ventilating and air conditioning (HVAC) system, upgrades to pool piping and Àlters to meet 2014 code requirements • Mold/mildew assessment Due to concerns from pool users, we also plan to assess our water treatment system and processes during the closure.

We recognize that the pool closure is already a frustrating and sometimes emotional situation, so closing the pool for over a year was a tough decision to make. On behalf of Council and staff I want to thank residents and user groups for their understanding and patience as we work to Àx this problem. Aquatic Centre staff wish to remind you that they are still offering preschool-level swim lessons based at the Sylvan Lake Comfort Inn, as well as our Red Cross Safety Programs. Staff also invites the community to browse our wide range of new recreational & cultural programs currently offered this fall/winter. www.sylvanlake.ca/programming/guide We welcome your questions and feedback; please contact us at 403 887 2199 or online through our online contact form, available at www.sylvanlake.ca under the “Contact Us” tab.

Revitalization of Sylvan Lake’s downtown at forefront of local webinar

BY JENNA SWAN SYLVAN LAKE NEWS Business owners, property holders, Town staff and members of the community gathered at the municipal building last Thursday where they participated in Roger Brook’s “20

Ingredients to a Successful Downtown” webinar.

Attendees of the webinar heard examples of successful downtown areas across North America and learned how areas can work together to revitalize downtown cores through videos compiled by Roger

Brooks, an internationally reknowned downtown revitalization and tourism guru.

“These seminars are for everyone to get on the same page - we’re talking about business owners, property owners and the town itself,” explained

Vicki Kurz, economic development officer for the Town. “It’s intended to motivate and create momentum in the waterfront commercial district and aims to present proven ideas from Roger Brooks, while also encouraging future dialogue between property and business owners.”

Mayor Sean McIntyre,

who is also a member on the Town’s Business Recruitment Team (BRT), was in attendance at the meetings alongside a number of other Council members. McIntyre stated from a BRT perspective the video series was informative and showed the importance of existing businesses working together.

“When we are talking

business retention and attraction, the retention part is really 70% of the equation with attraction being 30%,” he explained during an interview following the event. “So it’s key for us to work with existing businesses to help them be successful and it contributes overall to a healthy and complete community.” continued on page 15

THURSDAY, OCTOBER 15, 2015 continued from page 14 During the series Brooks touched on the idea of why so many downtown areas across North America are in need of revitalization, adding the creation of suburbs, shopping malls, and strip malls have all led to the deterioration of downtowns. However, due to a change in attitude and lifestyle across the continent, more and more people are returning to the idea of downtown shopping.

“The way people like to shop has changed over the years - but there is good news in that the evolution and popularity of downtowns is coming back,” added McIntyre. “As long as we can recognize those trends and what customers are looking for then it’s a really great opportunity for us to revitalize our own downtown with the right ingredients.”

He explained the 29 people in attendance at the video series were a good representation of those needed in order to make the revitalization successful.

“We had all of the necessary groups there to get

SYLVAN LAKE NEWS 15

the same information and be on the same page and understand that revitalizing an area is going to be a team effort,” said McIntyre.

“More and more people are understanding that in so many aspects of community and especially this one, we really are all in this together - the only way we are going to find success here is if we all work together.”

The Mayor reinforced the idea of going beyond revitalizing the waterfront commercial and downtown district strictly for the tourism season, explaining if the downtown is going to be successful it needs to be geared towards encouraging Sylvan’s 14,310 residents to shop downtown.

“Tourism in that sense is the icing on the cake, but rather than operating for a couple months out of the year, and surviving the winter - if people focus on a local customer base they are going to thrive all year long,” said McIntyre. “Then in the seasons where we have higher visitor input that just increases the success of the business rather

than their business being based on that.

“I think both town staff and council are interested in creating interest in that area and creating reasons for people to go downtown - that’s a big reason why there were so many special events in the downtown this year, to attract our own residents to the downtown. That generates business yes, but more than anything a great downtown generates a sense of community when we are all downtown and enjoying ourselves together, everyone wins.”

The Town is asking not only those in attendance at the Roger Brooks seminars, but also anyone with interest in the topic to attend a follow up meeting on November 3rd from 6:30-8:30 p.m.

Feedback gathered during this follow up meeting will provide input for the current Waterfront Redevelopment Plan, which the Town’s planning and development department is currently working on. editor@sylvanlakenews.com

Bears triumph over Hornets

BY JASMINE O’HALLORAN-HAN SYLVAN LAKE NEWS The Bears were yet again triumphant in a win against the Red Deer Hornets last Saturday with a score of 34-6.

Reuben Braitenback was the first to run a touch down for the team, running a 40 yard distance.

The Bears have two more league games to play and head coach Garnet Rambaut said the team should be in the top four going into the playoffs, which was the team’s goal.

He said the boys played well, it was a good win, he is pleased with their effort and that the Hornets gave the team a good run.

“They are a pretty good team, they gave us a good game and we prepared for it,” Rambaut said. “We didn’t run anywhere near

what our offense can do and we got everybody into play and that’s our objective because it only gets tougher from here on in.”

There are 16 rookies on the team and Rambaut said they have shown they can play the game as they give all their effort and work hard.

“They are a good team, are very cohesive and they care about each other,” Rambaut said.

Every one of the players can play at least two positions with some being able to play three which aided in the game as players had to step in for each other as there were several injuries during the game due to playing very hard.

The team’s roster isn’t huge in comparison to last year but Rambaut said the team has a lot more speed with the same amount of

player dedication.

“I can’t ask anymore as a coach and we have very good coaching staff, trainers and managers so all is good,” Rambaut said.

Being head coach Rambaut sets high but attainable expectations and goals by training his players to practice like they would play. He said this is all realistic for their skills and abilities but he also knows his team is having fun when they win.

“I think that’s the other thing, when you win you have fun,” Rambaut said.

He describes the team as being close which can be seen more so in practice than on a game day.

“During the week you can see it develop and I think that’s the important thing,” Rambaut said. reporter@sylvanlakenews.com

Lions lose in hard fought battle against Raiders

BY JASMINE O’HALLORAN-HAN The Sylvan Lake Lions bravely took on the Lacombe Raiders in their football game at H.J Cody School last Saturday but lost in a hard fought battle with a final score of 37-8.

Raiders player Richard Jans was the first to run a touchdown for his team in the first quarter, with Tristan Hess running the first touchdown for the Lions in the second quarter.

Even with the loss of the game head coach Vic Sloboda commented on how the team played a good game.

“We made a few mistakes and they capitalized on them and we didn’t succeed in doing our plays,” Sloboda said.

There were some missed blocks and

tackles that contributed to the opposing team getting some touch downs with Sloboda stating they had a couple of turnovers the other team ran back for touchdowns which wasn’t good for the Lions.

“Our guys were a little out matched today but I am proud of the way they played because they played good and hard,” Sloboda said.

He said they played well by giving 100 per cent effort, which he saw as some of them were getting injured due to playing that hard.

This was definitely evident as players came off the field looking exhausted and heading straight for their water bottles.

“At the end of the game when they were coming off most of them were pretty exhausted,” Sloboda said. “That’s what you

get when you have a 24 man roster and a lot of people are going two ways.”

He said an ideal roster would be about 35 to 40 players but the short roster list isn’t a new problem as they have been facing it as a team right from the start.

Sloboda deals with the shortage by making sure all his players are in good shape and conditioned well as many of the players field a number of different positions.

“At the end of the game we were running out of running backs so we were juggling them around to try and get everybody in who could possible do that,” Sloboda said.

“But they have been doing that in practice and everybody plays a lot of different positions so they know how to play.”

He said the players have definitely improved their plays compared to eight

weeks ago and said he is really proud of how much stronger and faster they are and how they know their plays better, among many other improvements.

“Even though they missed tackles today they tackle a lot better and they play a much better game,” Sloboda said. “It’s a lot more exciting for us to watch them play now.”

The team will be practicing up to play against Stettler at the same location which will be their final league game before heading into playoffs.

If the team wins next week against Stettler they will be playing for the tier 3 championship, but if they lose they will move down to the tier 4 championships. reporter@sylvanlakenews.com

Children introduced to figure skating on and off the ice

BY JASMINE O’HALLORAN-HAN SYLVAN LAKE NEWS Figure skating is in full swing again and children are being introduced to figure skating through Pre Star and Group Star programs held at the NexSource Centre.

Head coach for the program Fiona Lauzon has been a coach for 17 years and is teaching children how to figure skate.

The programs are meant to introduce the children to figure skating where they will train for a number of hours a week both on and off the ice.

“Hockey players have this amazing athleticism, but they are in full pads so they can bash into the boards, fall on the ice and they don’t really feel it,” Lauzon said. “We have to have that same athleticism without the benefit of pads.”

She said figure skating is a sport that takes skating to a new level adding skaters need to have power, speed and strength while still looking aesthetically pleasing on the ice.

She explained elite athletes are skating four or four and a half minute programs

which requires cardiovascular endurance, as well as the skaters are expected to jump and do three rotations in the air and land on the hard ice.

Figure skaters have to have the artistry of a gymnast, the ability to spin and rotate, with the grace of a ballerina - all combined into one.

“It’s a lot of hard work, pain, sweat and tears for that end result that we see,” Lauzon said.

This year the skaters will start an off-ice training program two hours a week in addition to the seven hours of on-ice training.

The off-ice training includes cardiovascular, flexibility, strength and endurance training.

With the collapse of the arena, skate time has been cut in half.

“We use this as a chance to teach the children that training is about training smart and training quality over quantity,” Lauzon said.

Off-ice training includes ballet and other types of dance to work on expression, creativity and movement.

Some of the children even do yoga for flexibility as well as strength training.

“We’re hoping to keep moving forward and keep the club growing so when we get our ice back we’re ready,” Lauzon said. “We hope the community stands behind us.” reporter@sylvanlakenews.com

Sylvan Lake chapter of ‘Vision For Non-Violence’ participates in Verbal Abuse Prevention Week The Sylvan Lake chapter of Vision for Non-Violence recently supported a nation wide initiative, Verbal Abuse Prevention Week.

The initiative aimed to address prevention of verbal abuse in homes, schools and workplaces as well as spread awareness

of the devastating damage it can have.

Alissa McDonald, Sylvan Lake FCSS Community Development Coordinator, explained verbal abuse is the use of negative words to hurt someone and cause them harm.

“Verbal abuse can be

anything from face-to-face to over the internet - any form of teasing, taunting, and making fun of people.

What used to be looked at as just ‘kids being kids’ is really starting to be looked at nationwide,” said McDonald. “We are asking ‘What kind of effect that will have on some one’s self esteem? What kind of trauma does that create in their life when some one has to live with verbal abuse day in day out?”

Tami Martell with Verbal Abuse Prevention Canada stated, “When someone says that your child is “too sensitive”, or that “verbal abuse builds character” or that it makes your child ‘toughen up and get a backbone’, we now know

up to self harm and suicide,” said McDonald. “I always tell my kids, tattling is when you are trying to get some one in trouble and telling is when you are trying to get some one out of trouble. It’s an important message to get out there. It’s not normal behaviour - we need to make sure that if kids are coming to us and saying this is happening that we actually take the time to stop, listen and investigate, “This isn’t just a problem that stops after high school - verbal abusers can be anywhere throughout life and if you haven’t learned tools to deal with them at a young age you will struggle with it in adulthood.”

that this is not true. These comments are only a way to ignore the real and definite problem that is happening - the destruction of someone’s emotional well-being.”

McDonald, said the local chapter was proud to support Verbal Abuse Prevention Canada’s awareness initiative adding she has watched the negative impacts of verbal abuse resonate through the community of Sylvan Lake.

“It goes further than just self esteem - it causes stress, anxiety, and leads to both physical and mental health issues, a general feeling of not wanting to belong, distrust, and in many cases it is what leads

Currently FCSS and the Flipside Youth Centre partner with Fox Run High School, where a youth centre worker is placed to address issues of verbal abuse among many, many other topics. McDonald stated the youth centre worker is not a parent or teacher and is just one more tool students can use.

On November 3rd the Sylvan Lake chapter of Vision for Non-Violence will be hosting ‘Creating a Vision for Non-Violence’ a conference aiming to raise awareness and deal with various forms of violence in Sylvan Lake. They invite the community to join them in addressing issues of abuse, with November also making Family Violence Prevention Month.

What’s Happening

WEBERG, Bryan 1968 - 2015 On October 3, 2015, Bryan Glenn Weberg, 46 years, entered into his eternal rest, after a courageous battle against cancer. Bryan was born on October 4, 1968 in Calgary, Alberta.

There, he attended John G. Diefenbaker High School, and was an active team mate on many baseball and hockey teams within the Thorncliffe Community. Bryan enjoyed playing all sports, and spending time outdoors. An avid fly fisherman, this was his true passion. In 1996, Bryan was married to the love of his life, Sheri Challand. Together they made their home in Sylvan Lake, Alberta. They are blessed with two beautiful children, Ethan and Claire, of whom he was a proud and loving father. Bryan worked as a welder for many years, at many pipeline construction companies, such as Challand Pipeline, Bunch Welding, W. Pidherney Welding, Doran Stewart Oilfield, before becoming a pipeline inspector in 2004. Bryan is survived by his loving wife, Sheri; their two children, Ethan and Claire; his parents, Betty (Victor) Faulkner, and Bruce (Colleen) Weberg; his grandmother, Millie Gagnon; two brothers, Bruce Weberg (Lana), Corey Weberg; three sisters, Laurie (Bob) Faulkner, Debbie Weberg, and Dallas Suleiman. He is also mourned by Sheri’s family, numerous nieces, nephews, good friends and colleagues. A private family ceremony was held. In lieu of flowers, the family would be grateful for a donation made in Bryan’s memory to www.pancan.org or to www.lustgarten.org, for pancreatic cancer research. Condolences may be sent or viewed at www.parklandfuneralhome.com. Arrangements in care of Ashley Paton, Funeral Director at PARKLAND FUNERAL HOME AND CREMATORIUM, 6287 - 67 A Street (Taylor Drive), Red Deer. 403.340.4040.
