“Being featured was a surprise, and I didn’t think I had enough work. They said, ‘You paint every day!’ and they were right. I joined the Art Club three years ago, and have loved that everyone is so helpful with ideas,” said Wegiel.

“This year, there was a lot of new work. The contributors have been amazing, including 46 artists and 50 sponsors. We are very grateful that artists are always telling us that this is one of the best shows around because they always feel welcome,” said show chairperson, Featured artist, Eraine Wegiel, at the 2019 Art Show & Sale in Vermilion on April 12.

Steva MacPhee April 7, 1930 – March 26, 2019

We, the family of Steva MacPhee, would like to thank: All the doctors, nurses, nursing aides, cleaning and maintenance staff who attended to Mom’s care in the Vermilion Valley Lodge, Vermilion Hospital and Vermilion Nursing Home over the past 2 years. Your caring attitude and communication with the family kept us informed.

Micheal and Val, Donald, Ronnie “Scrawny”, Anna Marie and Father Roger Rouleau for being with her when she passed.

Father Roger Rouleau who made numerous visits to see Mom bringing the Eucharist and a good chat as well as being available to us when we needed to talk. Your assistance in planning the Prayer Vigil and the Funeral Mass showed that you knew Mom and which readings would be appropriate for her last Mass.

Anna Marie MacPhee who gave up most of her own life for the past year to be Mom’s caregiver.

AJ for making Mom soup every night to accompany her supper.

The “Laurence boys” for providing the music for Mom’s funeral just as she asked.

The CWL members who came from across the province to form the CWL Honor Guard.

Barry Roth for playing the pipes after the Funeral Mass.

Fantasy flowers for the beautiful casket spray; how creative you are.

Sharon Jaremco and her staff who provided the donuts for the Prayer Vigil and for the Funeral luncheon, the soups, sandwiches and pastries Mom wanted. All were delicious.

You can now add borscht soup to your menu – it was great.

Cathie, Maggie and Janet who set up the displays at the Church and the Seniors Centre of key moments in Mom’s life, family, trips, and hobbies with pictures and items given to them by all our family members. We hope that anyone who received knitted touques, scarves and gloves from her will remember her fondly.

The staff at the Crossroads Funeral Chapel who were of immense help to us in getting everything organized for the funeral. The town cards and the Mass cards were beautiful.

You sure made us feel that Mom’s funeral was what was most important to you. Every detail was not too much to ask.

And most importantly to thank all who came to celebrate Mom’s life and console us in our grief at her Prayer Vigil and Funeral Mass. Mom would have been very pleased to see you all and tell you what her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren were doing and ask you about your family and ‘oh maybe we could play a game of crib’.

Just as Mom missed Dad everyday, we will miss her for the rest of our lives.

Mary, Cathie, Micheal, Maggie, Janet, Donald, Ronnie “Scrawny”, Christine, Brian, Anna Marie, Margaret and our families.

Coloring eggs, chocolate bunnies, pussy willows and homemade hot cross buns are all part of our Easter traditions. There is really no comparison between a homemade hot cross bun and a store bought one.

The aroma and taste of freshly baked hot cross buns is always a special treat for the Easter season. Both of my grandmothers and my mom made hot cross buns which we enjoyed from Good Friday right until Easter, with a ham supper or later as a ham bun. My favorite part was the ever so slight taste of butter cream icing in the cross of the bun.

Hot Cross Buns 1 package ( or 1 tablespoon) active dry yeast 1 cup warm water (110 -115 degrees) 1 teaspoon sugar 1 1/4 cups water hot water 2 tablespoons lard 1 tablespoon butter 1/2 cup sugar 1 teaspoon cinnamon 1/4 teaspoon allspice (optional) 1 1/2 cups raisins 2 teaspoons sea salt

Been MIA, Easter, And Spring

your kind words and concern. You said a “reply would be good to hear,� so I am taking this opportunity to do so. The main reason for the lack of writing was due to a very busy life, and secondly, I honestly didn’t think that many people read it. LOL. I will try my best to do it more often.

Spring has sprung and the weather has been absolutely beautiful, but with that brings a high risk for fires as it is extremely dry out there. This past week

5 3/4 - 6 1/4 cups all purpose flour Mix the first three ingredients together in a small bowl. If you do not have a thermometer, the water should be the same temperature that you would give to a baby in a bottle. If the water is too warm the yeast will die, and the bread will not rise.

If the water is not warm enough, the yeast will not grow. The teaspoon of sugar is food for the yeast. Allow the yeast to sit until it bubbles. Next, in a separate bowl pour the hot water over the lard, butter, sugar and salt and stir until all is dissolved. Allow this mixture to cool to the baby bottle temperature. Add both the yeast mixture and the sugar lard mixture together. Add in the raisins and the cinnamon. Stir in 4 or more cups of flour, adding the flour in 1 cup then 1/2 cup portions. When the dough is to stiff to stir in any more flour, then you will add the flour by kneading it in. With the remaining flour, flour a surface to knead the flour in. Knead the remaining flour in until the dough is workable and not sticky. Then knead the dough for 8 minutes. If you are out of practice your arms may get tired. It is o.k. to rest, but the dough still needs to be kneaded for the full 8 minutes. Place the dough in a buttered bowl. Place away from cool drafts, a warm area is best. Cover with a piece of wax paper and let rise for 1 hour.

Remove the wax paper and punch the

bread dough down. Use the dough to form into 24 – 30 buns. Cover the formed buns with wax paper. Allow the buns to rise.

This will take 1 – 2 hours depending on the temperature of the room. Cut a cross on the top of each bun with a sharp knife (optional). Bake the buns at 400 degrees for 20 minutes. Brush with melted butter or for a sweet glaze brush with a honey and melted butter blend when you take them out of the oven. When they are cool, mix up a batch of butter cream icing and ice the top of the buns in the cross.

Easter Menu Ideas - Ham, with applesauce and mustard, potatoes, cooked carrots, a lettuce salad, and hot cross buns, for dessert angel food cake with whipped cream and strawberries or cherry cheese cake.

Coloring Easter Eggs - If you are making simple colored eggs that will be eaten, begin by hard boiling the eggs. Place the eggs in a pot of cold water, bring to a full boil, cover the pot and remove it from the heat and let it stand for 15-17 minutes.

Drain the water and cool the eggs quickly in cold water. Very fresh eggs do not peel well, so it is better to use eggs that are a little older for easier peeling. You can use several drops of food coloring, 2 cups hot water and 1 tablespoon vinegar. I find the 500ml plastic containers from sour cream

and cottage cheese work well for dyeing the eggs. For darker colors, leave the eggs in longer, or add more food coloring. You can use wax crayons to write or draw on the eggs. If you use a white crayon, where you draw, will remain white after the egg is dyed. You can do stripes, polka dots or any design you like. You can experiment with adding a bit of cooking oil to the dye pots for a marbleized effect. Instead of using food coloring, you can make natural dyes by boiling natural foods to color the eggs. 2 cups chopped or shredded beets for red, 1 tablespoon chili powder or 2 tablespoons paprika for orange, 1 1/2 cups cranberries or raspberried for pink, 2 cups red cabbage or blueberries for blue, onion skins or 1 tablespoon turmeric for yellow. General directions: boil with 2-3 cups water and 1 tablespoon vinegar, and then strain. The colored eggs can later be turned into potato salad, egg salad or devilled eggs. Another method to use in dying eggs is to use KoolAid. Kool-Aid comes in a rainbow of colors.

Mix one package of Kool-Aid with 2/3 to 3/4 of a cup hot water. You may have to use smaller containers for this craft. There is no need to add the vinegar. This method produces brightly colored eggs that also smell great. I hope you have fun celebrating the greatest triumph of our faith and I wish you all a happy and blessed Easter.

Kat Danser Shreds Vermilion Folk Club

Angela Mouly Reporter

The Vermilion Folk Club hosted Kat Danser and the Tall Tales at the Vermilion Legion on April 13. Her edgy voice shredded blues notes right to the back of the room.

Born and raised in southeast Saskatchewan, Danser lives in Edmonton, and enjoys playing all over Alberta.

She has been to Vermilion a few times in the past.

When working for the U of A Hospital as a palliative care worker, she was stationed in Vermilion as well as Lloydminster, St. Paul, Slave Lake and all

over northern Alberta.

“I love working with rural Albertans; there’s a straight-forwardness about them,” said Danser.

Right from the first beat, she and the band lit up the stage with her smile and the upbeat number that opened the show. The audience clapped along with excitement, and Danser thanked them for showing up in body and spirit and getting into it right from the start.

Danser teaches at the U of A and Grant MacEwan. She spent some time living in Mississippi, Louisiana, and Alabama and developing her education and love for southern music, she has

9

now received her doctorate.

“I have been helped by other musicians to become who I am today. When you live in rural areas, there is a different music surrounding, and there are a few thousand hurdles to get here,” said Danser.

She went on to encourage dancing, and dug deep belting out songs throughout the night. Members of the Folk Club went on to thank Kat Danser and the Tall Tales for their outstanding performance, as well as the Alberta Photo submitted Foundation for the Ar ts for making it possible.

Should You Feed Mouldy Hay To Your Livestock?

During wet summers, it ’s hard to avoid ending up with hay that contains mould. But mouldy hay can pose serious health risks and is generally less palatable to animals. Here’s what you should know about feeding mouldy hay to farm animals.

The Amount Of Mould Some of your hay is bound to be mould y, but if the mould is over ly noticeable, chances are the hay won’t be appealing to your livestock. This may cause the animals to eat less or refuse to eat at all, which will negatively impact their health and lead to lower-quality meat and dairy.

The Type Of Animal Horses are more likely to develop

health problems as a result of eating m o ul d y hay, in c lu d in g re s p ir ator y and digestive problems like colic and heaves.

Cattle are more resistant to eating hay with mould, but certain types of mould can cause infertility and breeding complications in cows as well as organ damage.

Pregnant animals should never be fed mouldy hay.

The Risks Posed To Farmers Mouldy hay isn’t just bad for animal health. The mould spores found in hay can also lead to farmer’s lung, a disease that causes breathing problems, allergy attacks, persistent coldlike symptoms and, if left untreated, permanent lung damage.

If some of your hay looks or smells like it contains mould, it’s best to get rid of it and acquire fresh hay. When in doubt, you can always have your animal feed tested for mould.

Taking precautions when it comes to mouldy hay is best for your health, your animals’ health and in the long run, your farm’s bottom line.

What Are Your Fertilizer Requirements For Spring?

Agri-News Submitted

With seeding set to begin over the next month, soil fertility and fertilizer management are on the minds of many producers in Alberta.

Doon Pauly, agronomy research scientist with Alberta Agriculture and Forestr y, looks at s pr ing fer tilizer considerations.

Soil tests are still the best way to determine levels at the beginning of the season. “We can determine where we’re starting from as far as the nitrate that is present in the soil and what’s there for the plant at the start of the year.”

“Phosphorus, potassium, and salinity don’t change much year to year.

However, the tests show you trends over time that gives clues about your fertilizer management,” he adds. “If your phosphorus is gradually improving, that is a sign you’re doing a pretty good job of matching at least what you are taking off the land.”

Nitrogen “We hear lots of concern over nitrogen loss, so you need to consider your risk,” explains Pauly. “Your loss potential over winter is fairly low if you are in an area where you don’t typically have saturated conditions in the spring. If your normal practice in the spring is banding ahead of time, your loss potential is relatively low. We seldom have the conditions in a lot of the province where we have saturated soils after a spring fertilization event. We are not

at a high risk for nitrogen losses every year.”

He adds that there is not a lot of loss difference between a two-pass and a one-pass system. “However, the onepass system should be comparable as long as the soil is sealing behind your application equipment, and it is giving you the seed soil separation that it is designed to.”

“If you don’t want to handle a huge amount of dry fertilizer during the seeding operation, you can design a system where you are surface applying a little bit of nitrogen or a portion of that nitrogen early in the growing season and have it work very well. Short season crops are grown here. As long as the nitrogen is in the root zone by mid-June in most of the province, you can do a lot of different application strategies.”

Phosphorus How the phosphorus is placed in your field depends on what has been previously done to the land. “You will tend to see a larger effect from seedplaced phosphorus if your land is more deficient or if your phosphorus use has been less that what you have been pulling off in crops,” he adds. “You can get away with having phosphorus a little farther away from the seed if your soil tests higher, or if you have been applying a reasonable amount of phosphorus over time.”

Potassium Pauly says that the soil test for potassium is fairly reliable. “If you are above 300 lb. of potassium based on

zero to six-inch sample, the chances of you seeing a benefit from fertilizing with potash are pretty slim. But, if you are below 200 lb., then the chances of you seeing a response to your potassium on your cereal crops is actually pretty good.”

“Potassium can be a benefit to land that has been silaged or had a lot of hay production. Where you are taking a lot of biomass off, potassium levels can be drawn down to the point that a chance of seeing a benefit from potassium fertilization is pretty good.”

Sulphur Gaging sulphur levels in soil test samples can be difficult to determine as it is mobile and can accumulate in so-called hot spots. “That’s why typically I suspect most producers who are growing canola are putting down about 15 lb. of sulphur per acre regardless what is found in the soil test,” he says.

The Kindergarten students are beginning a unit about Animals and Their Young. In conjunction with this theme, the students went on a field trip to the College farm. Ms. Joanne took us through the barns to see the sheep, the horses, the cows, the calves, and a few cats. We pet all the animals and learned about them. We also saw a sheep being sheared, we held the lambs, we watched the horses in the riding arena, and we went in the new dairy barn to see how everything there works. The students had a great learning experience.

Once again, our students did not come back empty-handed from the annual Klondike Relays Track and Field competition in Edmonton. On April 8, 38 athletes from VES travelled to Edmonton to compete against 20 other schools. There is always a tremendous amount of competition, as many of these schools participate in track year-round. Our students represented VES proudly, coming away with ribbons in Grade 4 girls ball throw and long jump, Grade 5/6 boys ball throw and long jump, as well as Grade 5/6 girls ball throw.

2019 President’s Gala Supports Transformative Bursary

Lakeland College Submitted

(Lloydminster, Alta.) When Jennifer Heculuck decided to return to school, it had been 30 years since she last sat in a classroom. At the age of 50, the mother of two made a life-changing decision to pursue her dream of becoming a teacher and enrolled in Lakeland College’s university transfer program.

Faced with the financial challenges many students encounter, Heculuck applied for a bursary from Lakeland’s Support Our Students (SOS) Enhanced Bursary Fund.

The fund is supported by proceeds from the President’s Gala and assists students based on financial need.

In 2018-19, Heculuck was one of 25 Lakeland students to receive a $4,000 bursary drawn from the fund and on April 4, she had the opportunity to share her Lakeland story and thank attendees of the 2019

President’s Gala for their support.

“Without donors like you, this couldn’t have been possible for me. What humbles me the most is that there are so many people in this room I have never met and you took a chance on people – on strangers – who you’ve never met and you helped them. That, to me, is the most amazing thing,” says Heculuck to the 180-plus attendees of the gala.

“You took a chance on me with your kindness and generosity, trust and respect. All I can hope is that I can pay it forward and give you the kindness and respect that you deserve by being a good student. It’s never too late to go back to school and realize your dreams. I am so thankful for your support.”

Gala attendees heard from other SOS Enhanced Bursary Fund recipients in a special video presentation, including Amy Rosendahl, a hairstyling student, who was present to help with the Spa Raffle Pack-

age. Janet Paul was the lucky raffle winner who will enjoy a four-hour spa session for 10 thanks to Lakeland’s esthetician and hairstyling students.

The seventh annual gala also featured a Luxury Raffle Package, fine dining, an acoustic performance by Charlie Major – presented by Stingray – and more at the Lloydminster campus. Emceeing the event were Quinn Hlus, a bachelor of applied science: environmental management student, and Tucker Cochrane, a bachelor of commerce student.

Final numbers are still being tallied, but it is anticipated the 2019 President’s Gala

will be another successful fundraiser for the SOS Enhanced Bursary Fund.

“We have many friends of the college to thank, especially our generous sponsors and guests, for making this year’s gala another success for our students. Building the SOS Enhanced Bursary Fund means more students can achieve their educational goals. It means more students have the opportunity to invest in themselves,” says Dr. Alice Wainwright-Stewart, president and CEO of Lakeland College. “With the support of our donors, sponsors and friends of the college, our students’ futures are bright and full of promise.”

All Candidates Forum

Angela Mouly Reporter

The Vermilion & District Chamber of Commerce held an All Candidates Forum at St. Jerome’s School on April 9. Five of the six candidates for the Vermilion-Lloydminster-Wainwright Constituency were able to attend, and each shared information about their parties and outlook for the future.

According to www.elections.ab.ca, candidates for the Vermilion-Lloydminster-Wainwright Constituency include Ryan Clar ke -Alber t a NDP, Ro ber t McFadzean-Independent, Jim McKinnon - Freed om Conser vative Par t y, Craig G. Peterson-Alberta Party, Garth Rowswell-United Conservative Party, and Kelly Zeleny-Alberta Advantage Party.

Candidates were each given four minutes to discuss their platforms, and later answered a series of questions.

Over 200 people attended and were eager to listen to what the panel had to say.

“We need politicians who will stand up for industry and take a look at rural Alberta,” said Alberta Party Candidate,

Craig Peterson, from Vermilion who was a former teacher at J.R. Robson School.

Freedom Conservative Party Candidate, Jim McKinnon, from Wainwright said that he is a proud Canadian and Albertan; that he is not a separatist, but that he is tired of equalization payments and Alber ta getting a second class ticket. “ W h e n t h e e c o n o my i s h ea l t hy, all members of society benefit,” said United Conservative Party Candidate Garth Rowswell.

Alberta NDP Candidate, Ryan Clarke, currently teaches Social Studies in Elk Point and feels that the government should help average, ordinary people live more affordably. Alberta Advantage Party Candidate, Kelly Zeleny, is a registered nurse in Vegreville, and noted that they will work towards phasing out the carbon tax and addressing rural crime.

Voting will take place at the Vermilion Senior Citizen’s Centre and the Elk’s Hall on April 16, from 9 a.m. – 8 p.m. For specifications per your address, see the April 9, edition of the Vermilion Voice.

In Loving

Memory of

George Webb April 4, 1929 - April 16, 2013

To Our Dad & Grandpa God took you home about six years ago It broke each and every heart And though we saw it coming, it was very hard to part You had such a humble and gentle spirit A great sense of humour too You made us feel so special Each one important to you Your wise advice we still cherish Your support, your hugs and love And we still feel your presence, from your heavenly home above You treasured your family, community and friends But even more your God And through His son Jesus Christ your faith we do applaud You were the best Dad & Grandpa That anyone could have We miss you every moment And send you all our love

ATCO has been installing LED streetlights in Vermilion this spring. According to CAO, George Rogers, the town made a decision to proceed with the conversion last year. He said that Council believes that this move will provide a better quality of lighting in the community, and also do our part to reduce Greenhouse Gas emissions. In addition, light pollution would also be reduced as these LED’s are Dark Sky Compliant. Light pollution is the excessive light that is created by people. It poses a threat to the eyes, disturbs the ecosystem, apart from interfering with astronomical observations. Photo Sue Chikie
