Wednesday was a beautiful day for the “Caged for Kennels” fundraiser at Drumheller Co-op. The annual fundraiser for the Drumheller and District Humane Society raised $7,500 to help care for and find petfriendly homes for abused, neglected or abandoned animals. (l-r) Volunteers serving Beef on a Bun at lunch for the fund raiser are Doug Emery, Theresa Clance, and Sarah Devaney. Inset: Councillor Tara McMillan and dog Marley wait for donations to come in to free them from their cage. inSide photos by Michele Scott

ley. It is a constant struggle for all to find ways of raising funds to keep any special interest group going. Correct me if I am wrong, but it appears they have gone to the provincial government for funding and it was rejected because of their lack of investment to the cause and now they have simply stepped down to a lower level of government looking for a bailout, again, with no personal investment. I have attended many fundraising events over the years, buying baked goods, raffle tickets for cars, trips, quilts, Christmas crafts and the list goes on, in order to support many groups in town. How has this group tried to help themselves? If this funding is approved I would fully expect the same funding for the non-profit organizations which I support and all the local churches, as funding is an issue for them as well.

Editor InSide Drumheller Dear Editor, After reading in the media that council has been asked for sustainable funding for the Drumheller Artists group downtown, I feel the need to voice my objections. I and a number of my friends do not believe that this is the responsibility of the taxpayers of Drumheller, especially for a group with only 12 members. I am sure they do have many hardships finding funding for their group as does every other not-forprofit group within the val-

At a minimum it is $15,000 this group is looking for and a max of $25,000, A tough letter to write but as a taxpayer I felt I had to. Sincerely, Pam Yemen

The Badlands Search and Rescue (SAR) is hosting a session that could very well save lives. The association is hosting a Rope Rescue Training introduction next weekend. While Badlands Search and Rescue’s area encompasses hectares and hectares of flat farmland, training officer for Drumheller SAR Guy Latour says the unique landscape of the Badlands makes rope rescue training a necessity for SAR and first responders. “A lot of people don’t realize that because of the terrain, there is a huge need for rope rescue,” he said, adding that more than just hills, risk can also encompass unstable ground and the valley’s famous bentonite mud. The introduction session will focus on outdoor slope and high angle search and rescue techniques. Latour will be leading the session, along with Michael Kary of the Alberta Cave Rescue Association. They are inviting their members as well as those who are interested in joining. They have also reached out to area fire depart-

Sessions begin Friday evening where they will be going over the basics with participants. This includes familiarization with the equipment, ba-

sic knots and of course, safety. On Saturday they will focus on techniques and systems. He says safety is built in to rope rescue simply because when using proper techniques every system is designed to withstand 10 times the weight capacity that it is being used for. On Sunday they are heading out to the former Ski Hill to do some practical in the field work, including assembling simple systems. Latour stresses the sessions are simply an introduction and not a

Sudoku Here’s how it works: Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box.

The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!

Dragons on three game win streak Sarah Devereaux | inSide Drumheller Hats off to the Drumheller Dragons Mitchell Cook who got the Dragons their first hat trick of the 2014/2015 season Tuesday night as the Dragons faced the Okotoks Oilers at the Memorial Arena. They won the game 6-1 giving them a 3-0-0 record thus far in the season.

The action started early as the Dragons’ Dakota Zaharichuk opened scoring one minute and forty-three seconds into the game with an assist from Ethan James. At 9:08 Cook scored the Dragons second goal with assists from Zaharichuk and James ending the first period with a 2-0 score for the home team. The Dragons continued their goal scoring in the

second period with their third goal of the night, Zaharichuk’s second of the game, short handed and unassisted at the 12:55 mark. Cook also had his second at 18:43, unassisted, to bring the score at the end of the second period to 4-0 Dragons. Third period action included goal number five for the Dragons at 9:04 scored by Rory Davidson with assists from Ryan Gevne and Chad Harrison. A second short handed goal at 10:08 gave the Dragons a 6-0 lead and was also the hat trick goal for Cook. The Oilers answered back at the 15:20 mark with a power play goal by Rhett Gardner, making it a final score of 6-1 Dragons. Cook said the puck just kept going in. “I was lucky. (I was) in the right spot at the right time.” He said he gives a lot of credit to his line mates who helped him out a lot in achieving

Drumheller Dragons forward Mitchell Cook comes from behind the net with the puck during the Dragons Tuesday night home game against the Okotoks Oilers. the hat trick. Cook said his third goal, which was unassisted, was a rebound. “Dakota made a nice pass to me in our zone and I just chipped around the (defence) and went hard on the net and was lucky I got the rebound.” The Dragons were outshot by the Oilers 38 to 24 but Dragons goaltender Curtis Skip was able to save 37 of those shots. Skip said as a goaltender, busy games are what you want. “Right away you get into it and get into your groove and feeling good. The pucks just keep coming, you don’t have to sit there for that long so you just keep your mind in the present and don’t let the next shots get you.” Skip said when it came to being outshot, “as a team we didn’t play our best game.

tighten up a bit in the (defensive) zone they don’t outshoot us.” Cook agreed that the team didn’t play their best. “We agreed in the room that wasn’t our best game so far this year. We thought we had a good third period and we will bring that into Friday night.” Head Coach Brian Curran also agreed with both players. “Quite frankly I don’t think we played that well. We had spurts where we played well but certainly not the way we played our last game. We had a pretty good game plan against them and we didn’t stay with that execution of the game plan. The game before, Skip had a bit of a rough one in the net and the boys bailed him out and tonight Skip bailed the boys out and that’s kind of the way it works. We certainly don’t want to praise the game, we did some good things, we just didn’t

play as well as I thought we could.” Curran said Skip made a difference Tuesday night. “He certainly made some big saves throughout the whole game and that’s what we expect from him... We needed him to play that way. We took advantage of our opportunities and that’s good for us. It is a good sign. We didn’t play our best but Skipper was at the rescue back there. We know that and we will deal with it tomorrow. It is a win, and we want to move forward on it and build our confidence.” Skip said, “A win is a win and we have to celebrate our wins but we’ve got a long way to go and we are just going to try to keep getting better.” The Dragons welcome the Calgary Canucks to town tonight (Friday) with a 7:30 p.m. start at the Memorial Arena.

The Senior Girls Dynos volleyball team has kicked off their season with skills development. “Right now we’re focusing on certain skills: passing the ball to our target, or setter, so we can get an attack. So as long as we’re making those improvements each and every game, then it’ll come together,” said DVSS teacher and volleyball coach Dawn Sullivan. The team seems to be enjoying themselves and having fun, said Sullivan. For this senior team, the focus is on developing individual as well as team skills as the season progresses, because there are only three players return-

ing from last year. The team also has to develop setters to fill a vacancy, and Sullivan said players have already improved since the September 2 tryouts, and are working towards seeing more progress with lots of hard work and positive attitudes. The volleyball team was at a tournament in Morrin September 6, and the team improved with each game they played, said the coach. Official team practices are three times a week, and there are six tournaments scheduled for this year. Depending how they do during the season and at regionals, the Senior Girls Dynos volleyball team could have a season that goes until the end of November.

The Senior Girls Dynos Volleyball team at Drumheller Valley Secondary School is hard at practice for the season and has already played at their first tournament of the season. inSide photo by Michele Scott
