Members of the Strathmore business
community are mourning the loss of a
tremendous community-minded man.
Claude Gauvin, owner of Trendsetter
Homes, was tragically killed Sept. 27,
leaving a huge void in the town, says
Strathmore Mayor Steve Grajczyk.
He was a great community man he
did a lot for the
c ommuni t y,
said Grajczyk.
He was a very,
very spirited
man and ac-
tually a great
part in building
this commu-
nity. When he
came here, the
population was
much less and
he built hun-
dreds of homes for many families.
It is a great loss to the community.
In addition to his strong work ethic,
Gauvin volunteered countless hours to
charity, including being a board member
of the Strathmore & District Agricultural
Society.
That is where he worked with Grajc-
zyk, who was the President of the Ag.
Society.
He donated his time, he donated his
products, he donated his labour a big
part of the front (at the Ag Society) is his
dirt and rocks (he donated), said Grajc-
zyk, adding that he was an instrumental
part in making the Strathmore Heritage
Days a success.
Its really tough because he was an all
around great guy.
According to Grajczyk, he has many
great memories of his friend, who will
be missed.
He was a very enthusiastic man and
when he wanted something done, he got
his point across, smiled Grajczyk. He
had a humerous way (to do it), some-
times mixing his French with his English.
He will be dearly missed.

Wildfower Ranch hosted their annual charity golf tour-
nament on Sept. 22, with all of the proceeds being put
into the Wildfower Ranch Community Support Founda-
tion.
We had 78 golfers out for the tournament, and they
were all involved with Wildfower Ranch in one way or
another, either through our builders or our trades people,
said Ken Struss with Cancorp, and an owner of the Wild-
fower Ranch development.
They all paid $120 a golfer to golf, so the proceeds
from that went to our charity as well as sponsorship. We
had about eight to ten sponsors that donated money and
we raised close to $12,000 for our charity.
The Foundation was set up as a way to give back to the
community, providing a helping hand for those who may
not qualify for funding from other organizations or gov-
ernment grants. The mandate of the Foundation is to be
there when no one else is and try to fll the gaps where
traditional social services organizations fall short.
Applications to request help have been circulated
throughout town. There is a board for the applicant to
submit their request to. The board then reviews the ap-
plication and the funds are advanced to applicant, or the
applicant is reimbursed.
The purpose of it is, is that (its) for anybody that is in

Rockyford resident Dani-
elle (Dani) Gariepy is all
smiles these days, and for
good reason.
On Sept. 24 she was se-
lected as one of the top six
fnalists in line for the cen-
tennial Calgary Stampede
throne.
The competition for the
2012 Stampede Queen be-
gan at the beginning of Sep-
tember and saw just over
20 girls vying for the Stam-
pedes top spot.
The competitors have
been kept busy with din-
ners, speeches, riding com-
petitions and interviews, all
of which they are judged
on.
Its very busy, between
school and work and sports.
This stampede queen stuff
is a lot, its busy but, its re-
ally fun and you meet so
many interesting people,
said Gariepy.
I mean the girls that
youre competing with, you
already have something in
common with them just by
being there.
Gariepy decided in the
summer to try to become
royalty. She has been in-
volved with the Stampede
and coaching future rodeo
queens for quite a while.
One of the reasons Gari-
epy said she tried this year
is because she has had a
chance to meet a lot of roy-
alty while being a Stampede
ranch girl.
I got to ride during the
Stampede and meet a lot of
really awesome girls that
have gone through the pro-
gram. I also run the Rocky-
ford Horse Club and within
that is the Rockyford Ro-
deo Queen program which
I kind of facilitated during
the last fve years or so,
said Gariepy.

ence with coaching girls to
become rodeo queens on

compete for the top spot.

decided it was time to be a
role model and try it out for
herself.
Even if I dont (win)
the experience is worth so
much. Its been really fun,
and if I dont (win) I will try
again next year, said Gari-
epy.
Its been really good,

need of a helping hand. Weve helped out single families
that needed money for kids for school supplies or for
clothing. Weve helped several people that needed food
hampers that just didnt have the money, said Struss.
Its a non-proft charity that we set up, we raise money
through our company. There are no admin fees, we look
after all of the administration ourselves at no cost to the
charity.
To date there has been between $50,000 to $60,000
raised for the foundation and the community.
Golfers spent a day at the Strathmore golf course on Sept. 22 to raise money
for a good cause.

Grade 5 students from
Westmount Elementary
School had a chance to
learn frst hand how they
could help those less fortu-
nate on Sept. 22.
Marie Van Driels class
went to Marianne and
George Pinchbecks house
to pick carrots, clean them
up and then deliver them to
the food bank. The Pinch-
becks grandson Mitchell is
in the class, and this is the
second time the couple has
had students come by pick-
ing carrots.
Mrs. Pinchbeck (is) a for-
mer Grade 2 teacher her-
self, and so she had an ex-
cess of carrots and wanted
to donate them to the food
bank, said Van Driel.
We came over to help
out, and pick and scrub
and clean and deliver them
over. Its good for the kids
to serve in the community
and know that theres a
need at the food bank, and
that they need to help their
community.
We did it when I was
in Grade 2, and we just
thought that it was good
for the food bank, and to
donate it to people, said
Mitchell Pinchbeck.
Well probably do this
again in two years or so, I
think well do this again.
Marianne Pinchbeck still
works for Golden Hills
School Division and said
it is very close to her. With
their home located just
blocks from the school it
made sense to have the
kids come by.

Crowther Memorial Ju-
nior High School held their
annual fundraiser for the
Terry Fox Foundation in
collaboration with the an-
nual run.
Last year approximately
$10,000 was raised and this
year the school was already
more than halfway there by
Sept. 22, the day of the run.
The students are asked to
donate a minimum pledge,
though it is not mandatory.
We ask that if you prob-
ably spend $2 on chips at
a lunch hour so maybe you
donate $2. We ask for it,
but its not enforced, said
Glenda Sorensen, one of
the organizers of the run
and fundraiser.
Some of the students will
do their best to raise as
much as possible, which
helps the school meet new
goals every year.
To start things off the
entire school watched a
tribute video, which used
to feature Terry Fox. This
year the video was about

fected in some way by can-

The Town of Strathmore engineer-
ing department was surprised when
they opened tenders for the bridge
replacement work for George Free-
man Trail.
The expected fgure was near the
$500,000 mark, but instead the low-
est tender was closer to $750,000.
The design contract had been award-
ed to CIMA in August, and the hope
was to complete the necessary re-
pairs this fall.
Chuck Renkas, project coordina-
tor, said he would feel more comfort-
able getting an assessment done to
see what the current condition of the
bridge is, and if its life can be ex-
tended instead of spending $750,000.
Renkas said an assessment would
be free through CIMA Canada. They
would do an inspection and provide
a report as part of their existing con-
tract with the town.
As soon as the canal is free of wa-
ter, CIMA will be able to inspect and
assess the condition of the bridge.
Once completed, if repairs are need-
ed, work can be started quickly, po-
tentially fnishing three to six weeks
later, with traffc disruptions while
the work is being done.
Jesse Parker, Director of Engineer-
ing and Operations, said staff recog-
nize some surface work needs to be
done, but dont feel a whole bridge
replacement is necessary.
The scope of work was to put in
two new three metre metal culverts.
For the time being an assessment
will be done to determine what will
be done next, whether its a delay or
repairs.
Bridge replacement put on hold for assessment

Alberta 4-H and UFA are once again
presenting their annual Alumni Ser-
vice Award, which began in 2008. The
hope is for the award to remain con-
sistent in the foreseeable future, and
for the 75 year partnership between
UFA and Alberta 4-H to remain strong.
The awards signifcance is to rec-
ognize noteworthy individuals from
rural Alberta who have shown acts
of leadership and volunteerism in ad-
vancing their local communities by
contributing much time and effort in
4-H and or other community activi-
ties.
UFA was really looking to support
young entrepreneurs, youth, within
agriculture and that was a big rea-
son for us coming on board with this
award, that was a big piece of it, was
to look for future leaders within Al-
berta and be able to support them in
their endeavours, said Jessica Barrie,
Marketing and Communication Spe-
cialist of UFA Co-operative Limited.
To qualify as an applicant, the 4-H
Alumni recipients must be newly
nominated in 2011, and be between
the ages of 20 and 35. They must also
have pursued post-secondary educa-
tion, returned to their rural roots, and
have been a part of the 4-H communi-
ty for at least two years. A $2,000 UFA
gift certifcate will be awarded to each
of the fve winning recipients. The
deadline for applications is Nov. 30.
To beneft future applicants, the
new guideline states that previously
awarded recipients may not re-apply
for the award. By doing so it has
raised the odds for other individuals
who wish to receive the award, ac-
cording to Carmen Stone, Manager of
Corporate Partnerships of 4-H Foun-
dations of Alberta. Five recipients are
awarded every year out of the antici-
pated 15-30 applicants.
Even if you have been out of 4-H
for a couple of years, its recommend-
ed you have someone nominate you
and whatever you do, if you could
highlight, and if people could fll in as
much information as they can of what
people have done in their community
through leadership and through vol-
unteerism, those would be great top-
ics to touch on, said Barrie.
All fve winners will be announced
sometime during the spring, accord-
ing to Barrie. Around the same time,
UFA will be having their annual gen-
eral meeting and farm safety weeks.
Applications can be found at
www.4h.ab.ca and can be sent via fax:

berta, R.R. 1, Westerose, Alberta T0C

An ongoing
issue in
society
Jessica altman
Students Opinion
In our society today is it
wrong for someone to stand
up for themselves? Is it a
bad thing to want to make a
difference? There are pros
and cons to how schools
deal with the bullying issue.
The schools act upon each
situation differently.
From the presentations
during bullying awareness
week, they say to stand up
to a bully either on our own
or with a group of supportive
friends. The question is
why are kids suspended for
doing so? In a self defence
situation, both kids are
suspended for a week. The
bully knows what theyve
done wrong, but what about
the victim? They stood up
for their rights, felt they
did something positive, but
theyre being punished for
doing so. Even if a kid gets
involved and stands up to a
bully for someone else, so
they dont get a beat down,
they too are suspended
although they did the right
thing by helping a student
that could not stand up and
defend themselves
The ongoing question
is, what triggers a bully?
Is it because people have
issues at home or life in
general and they cant fnd
a proper release for their
anger. How do they deal with
their issues? Do they take it
out on a person who looks
weak and hopeless? Does
making someone else feel
bad, make them feel better
about themselves? Bullying
victims try to avoid the
subject as much as possible
to avoid confrontation and
possibly humiliation. A lot
of people avoid the topic of
this powerful but damaging
situation.
The schools can be
intimidated by the parents of
bullies as many are bullies
themselves. Principals
have been threatened
with lawsuits, going to the
school board or physically
threatened. There is a no
bullying policy and if that is
the case, then that should
be the policy. If this was
adhered to and the bullies
suspended or expelled, then
we would not be having this
discussion.

Parliamentary Report
Now that Parliament has reconvened in Ottawa,
our Conservative government is unveiling for Ca-
nadians our legislative priorities for the Autumn
Session in the House of Commons. Our top prior-
ity remains jobs and the performance of Canadas
economy. Canada is the only advanced nation that
has more people working today than before the
recession hit. We will maintain our low-tax plan to
create jobs and economic growth a plan that is
working.
This fall, we will also move forward on our am-
bitious trade agenda by reintroducing legislation
to implement important free trade agreements that
help open new markets for Canadian business-
es and entrepreneurs. These will help Canadas
economic recovery and contribute to the nearly
600,000 net new jobs created since July 2009.
As your MP, I will have a large amount of work
carrying out my parliamentary role as the Chair
of the House of Commons Standing Committee
on Public Safety and National Security. The Anti-
Human Smuggling Bill (C-4) will be the frst to
be heard at our committee. I am looking forward
to overseeing the testimony by witnesses on the
strong measures we are proposing to protect our
borders and prevent illegal entries into Canada.
Bill C-4 contains deterrents that will stop human
smugglers from targeting our shores. We are tar-
geting the snakeheads (organizers), ship owners,
captains of vessels, crews, and persons trying to
queue-jump Canadas immigration system.
Up next at our committee will be the legislation
to eliminate the failed and costly long-gun registry.
I am determined that both of these Bills receive
thorough and expeditious hearings so they can be
implemented without delay. These are two pieces
of legislation that will be directly on my desk
when they pass Second Reading. I know that there
is strong support for these two Bills in our con-
stituency, and all across Canada. My colleagues and
I are prepared for extended hours, extra meetings
whatever it takes. The Opposition will no longer
be able to waste Parliaments time and taxpayer re-
sources pretending to study actions that the Gov-
ernment of Canada could take, only to defeat them
before they can be taken. The 41st Federal Election
changed all that.
As I write this column, we are all anticipating the
Offcial Visit to Canada of the Right Honourable
David Cameron, Prime Minister of the United King-
dom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.
The United Kingdom is one of Canadas clos-
est friends and allies, said Prime Minister Stephen
Harper when he announced that Prime Minister
Cameron accepted the invitation to address a joint
session of Parliament.
Again, the recent election demonstrated historic
change in Canada politics. Now that the dust has
settled, it seems to me ftting and appropriate that
during the frst few months of a long overdue ma-
jority Parliament in Ottawa, the British Prime Min-
ister is the frst to visit our House of Commons.
Canada, like many other Commonwealth Nations,
is steeped in the traditions of our British heritage.
Great Britain has been the model and inspiration
for many of the institutions, procedures and prac-
tices in the way we govern ourselves. I hope ev-
eryone has the opportunity to hear the greeting
the Right Honourable David Cameron brings to
Canada.

ing this or previous columns you may write me at

Parliamentary reconvenes after summer break
Letters to the editor
To the Editor
I would like to express my appreciation to all Alber-
tans who cast a ballot in the Progressive Conservative
leadership election on Sept. 17. While voter turnout
was lower than some expected, the direction of voters
was defnitive. The subsequent endorsement by three
of the candidates for front runner Gary Mar, further
emphasizes the clear direction of Albertans with re-
gard to leadership.
The PC Partys constitutional requirement for a
leader to be declared by winning 50 per cent plus
one of participating voters means members are being
asked to vote again on Oct. 1. As vote counts are not
carried forward, the outcome will be decided by par-
ticipants on Oct. 1. The outcome should not be taken
for granted.
Albertas economic dependence on trade and access
to foreign markets, as well as recent headlines ques-
tioning the integrity of Alberta oil, highlight the need
for strong and experienced leadership from our new
Premier. Having served in portfolios of international
and inter-governmental affairs, environment, health,
education and community development, Gary Mar is
ready to take the lead. The good work and strong re-
lationships Gary has established internationally over
the last three years as Albertas envoy to Washington
will be important.
I encourage all Albertans to support Garys bid for
leadership on Oct. 1 or at an advance poll on Sept. 27.

Complaints over the taste and odour
of potable water in Gleichen may be
solved for the frst time next fall.
David Churchill, Manager of Trans-
portation and Infrastructure for Wheat-
land County, told council members at
the Sept. 20 meeting he might have
found a solution.
SHAC Ponder has been approved
by council and meets water treatment
specifcations. Churchill asked to begin
a test project with it. Previously there
had been no products available to try
to improve the situation caused by al-
gae.
Algae have been an ongoing cause
of the water problems in Gleichen, and
though it is safe, the odour and taste
have residents bringing in their own
water.
The algae blooms that happen in
the raw water reservoir is where the
problem originates, and thats been
an ongoing problem for years. Part of
the reason is that reservoir is quite a
large surface area but not very deep, so
hence the water warms up in the sum-
mer, said Gerry Van Ooostwaard, Pub-
lic Works Superintendent for Wheat-
land County.
He said when you have a deep body
of water, the water never gets warm
but with a shallow lake does get warm
and is no different then a reservoir. The
warmth causes algae to bloom, affect-
ing the water quality.
The drinking water comes from the
reservoir and then goes into the water
treatment plant. The flters can take all
the bacteria out but cant get rid of the
smell and taste.
Its not like an instant overnight
success. Youre supposed to treat your
water with it, according to manufactur-
ers, three times a year, spring, summer,
and fall and over time it should have
an impact on reducing that, said Van
Ooostwaard.
The problem always comes later in
the summer so its our intention to treat
the water again in the spring, summer
and fall next year, three times. By lat-
er in the summer (we) hope that has
some impact.

The Strathmore #10 Royal Canadian
Legion, the second oldest branch in
Alberta, will celebrate 85 years since
receiving their charter on Oct. 8.
The celebration will be held at the
Legion, and will run from 2 p.m. to
9 p.m. There will be drink specials,
snack trays, a birthday cake, and enter-
tainment throughout the day.
We want to welcome the commu-
nity to come and help us celebrate that
day, because really without the com-
munitys help thats what our man-
date is, is to serve the community and
the seniors, and the ex-service per-
sonnel, said Legion President Jenny
Schumann.
Previous to 1926 the Legion was
known as the Great War Veterans As-
sociation. When current members of
the Legion worked on the expansion
in 2004, they were surprised and hap-
py to fnd historical records from the
early 1920s.
Why they did it, were really not
sure why when we were taking
down these walls and stuff and all of
a sudden there was newspapers, and
then these (cancelled cheques) were
found throughout different parts of the
building, said Schumann.
There were cheques from 1924
to 1926 and enough 2-cent war tax
stamps to go with every cheque that
would have been written. There was
also a beret, and newspapers in the
walls.

Halloween is coming early to the Cheadle Lions
Corn Maze. Kids of all ages are invited to head to
the maze dressed in their best spooky costume to
take part in the Halloween costume night Oct. 8.
The kids event for the younger children will be
from 4 p.m. to 5 p.m. with costume judging at 5:30
p.m.
Its just for the little kids earlier so they can be
in their costumes and run through the corn if they
want. Its open to everybody after that, said Kevin
Gibbons, with the Cheadle Lions.
The after-dark event for the kids of all ages will
begin at 6 p.m. with judging at 7:30 p.m. There will
be prizes for the best costume for kid nine years
old and under, and another for kids 10 and up.
The corn maze has been a great success thanks
to the residents of Strathmore and area. We have
seen two local schools come out and experience
the fun of the maze. For a lot of kids I think its
the frst time they have been to a farm to see where
their food is grown, said Gibbons.
Its great to see little kids full of excitement run
into the maze with their parents and grandparents.
An adult must accompany all children attending
the events. The maze will close at 10 p.m.

The Childrens Wish Foundation,
Strathmore Chapter, will be hosting
several charitable events with the in-
tent to make more wishes become a
reality. Collective efforts have been
successful in the past, such as the
most recent Movie Under the Stars
night that took place this past sum-
mer. The Childrens Wish Foundation
hopes to reach their set goals, with
the anticipated Silent Auction, Jelly
Bean Dance, and Wish Makers Walk
for Wishes.
We always hope to every year to
raise enough money for one wish, and
the average cost per wish is $10,000,
said Christie Anderson, the chairper-
son behind the Strathmore Chapters
events held this year.
The Silent Auction will be held from
Sept. 29-Oct. 13 at the Chinook Cred-
it Union. Everyone is encouraged to
come inside to browse the many auc-
tion items. The organization welcomes
all acts of charity, whether it be bid-
ding in the auction or participating
in any of the three events. Cash do-
nations (with cheques made payable)
to the Childrens Wish Foundation and
prize donations are very helpful to the
organization as well.
The Jelly Bean Dance, for kids in
Grade 6 and under, will take place on
Friday, Oct. 14 at the Strathmore Cen-
tennial Civic Centre. The dance begins
at 6 p.m. and will end at 8:30 p.m.
Lastly, the main event, the Wishmak-
ers Walk for Wishes, a 1km or 5km
fun run/walk will take place Saturday,
Oct. 15 at Kinsmen Park. A minimum
pledge of $25 is required to take part.
Registration will begin at 8:30 a.m.
and the walk will begin at 9 a.m.
It is just a lot of fun, theyre all fam-
ily events, the Jelly Bean Dance, the
Walk for Wishes, its a great way to get
the family out and kids are encour-
aged to bring their Halloween cos-
tumes and wear those, said Anderson.
Calling all bidders, dancers, walkers and runners!
In choosing whose wish
should be made to come
true, Anderson stated that
the main offce in Calgary
makes the decision.
They try to keep the
funds kind of funnelled as
local as possible, it is a Ca-
nadian organization, the
Childrens Wish Foundation,
usually we have a family at
every event that is local and
that is either getting a wish
granted or has had a wish
granted, said Anderson.
The organization cannot
emphasize enough the need
for contributions and par-
ticipation in the events. The
only way the organization
can be successful in reach-
ing their goals is if people
come out to bid, dance, run
and walk.
The kids who get their
wishes granted are obvious-
ly very deserving, its just a
way to get out and have fun
for a good cause, said An-
derson.
To fnd out more informa-
tion about how someone
can get involved or con-
tribute to the organization,
please contact Christie An-
derson at candcanderson@

Reno crash affects Strathmore resident
Shannon LecLair
Times Reporter
A terrible accident in Reno, Nevada
on Sept. 16 made headlines all over the
world, and one Strathmore man was
there when it happened.
Robin Murray, a pilot for Westjet, has
been going to the Reno Air Races since
the early 80s, and was one of the spec-
tators of the crash, which resulted in 11
people being killed as of Sept. 23.
Jimmy Leeward, the pilot who died
in the crash, was fying a highly modi-
fed P51 Mustang called the Galloping
Ghost. He was coming around the last
pylon and then you could see some-
thing was wrong, he started wobbling
and pitching up, said Murray. Then he
turned and was heading out over the
crowd which is very unusual, there is
a line called the dead zone designed
to keep the airplanes a safe distance
from the crowd and the pilots normally
never cross it. So when he did cross it
I knew there was something seriously
wrong.
He was climbing out over the crowd
approximately 300 to 400 feet above
us and I thought he was going to miss
everything and just keep going behind
us. Then the airplane just started rolling
to the left and then rolled inverted, up-
side down, and then basically just come
straight down, right into the crowd.
The aircraft crashed into the box seats
just forward of the grandstand in a near
vertical attitude, said Murray, but was
slightly pointed toward the ramp which
was a good thing because the shrapnel
blew out towards the ramp instead of
into the crowd. There has been specu-
lation that a piece of the tail, called a
trim tab, came off and could possibly
be the cause of the crash.
I was in the bleachers, but the next
section over, about 150 feet away from
where it hit. For a second it was coming
at me, and I thought to myself there is
no where to go, then it started to roll a
little more to the left as it came in, and
missed me. The whole thing happened
in seconds but seemed like it took fve
minutes for it to crash, said Murray.
There was a very loud smacking
sound at impact and then it sounded
like tin cans hitting the ground as piec-
es of the aircraft slid across the ramp.
The aircraft completely disintegrated,
there was nothing left, only pieces the
size of my hand and dust. What was left
of the engine few about 300 ft away
out on to the ramp. Luckily there was
no fre but I could smell racing fuel. Af-
ter that it was pretty much mayhem. I
think everybody was just in shock at
what had just happened. The scene af-
terwards is something Ill never forget
and never want to see again. Ive seen
crashes there before and pilots have
died but never has a spectator been in-
jured or killed to my knowledge.
Ive been going to those races since
1983 I try to go every year, and have
only missed a few years. It is normally
a really good time as there is the rac-
ing along with other air show acts. Im
a pilot too and I love those airplanes.
Its kind of sad to see something you
love cause that much injury, death and
damage.
Leeward, 74, had been racing planes
since the mid-seventies, and the Gal-
loping Ghost, a P51 Mustang had been
used in races since 1946. The Ghost had
been modifed for racing, and could fy
at speeds close to 500 mph. Leeward
and the Ghost had the longest racing
career of any other active pilot or air-
craft before the tragedy occurred.

Empowering a Nation through Ed-
ucation was the theme of Old Sun
Community Colleges, OSCC, three-
day celebration of their 40th Anniver-
sary from Sept. 19 - 21.
Monday mornings celebration be-
gan with a tradition Tipi Transfer
Ceremony and a Feast enjoyed by all
who came out to participate. After
the Feast, offcials held their Opening
Ceremonies with welcoming remarks
by Chief Fred Rabbit Carrier and Pres-
ident of OSCC, Amelia Clark.
This year Old Sun Community Col-
lege celebrated its 40th year of suc-
cess as an adult learning institute on
the Siksika Nation. This learning in-
stitution has played an integral role
amongst Siksika Nation members in
helping them to reach their educa-
tional goals through lifelong learning.
In addition, this year marks the 20th
anniversary of the Siksika Nation suc-
cessfully administering the Federal
Post-Secondary Student Support Pro-
gram fund. These two anniversaries
mark monumental advances in the
area of education amongst the people
of the Siksika Nation and are an im-
portant part of their history.
Guests were provided with opportu-
nities to go on tours of OSCC and learn
about the history of the residential
school as well as a history of the vari-
ous initiatives that have evolved over
the years. A Trade Fair and historical
displays were set up in the basement
of the college for people to browse
and purchase memorabilia from the
anniversary. Local artists (and past
students) like Cody Wolfeg and Darcy
Lowhorn were given the opportunity
to show off their spectacular art and
they were humble about their accom-
plishments.
Cheryl Solway, who has been the
Education Counsellor for the past 20
years said they were proud of the 20
year Anniversary which offcially took
place on April 1 when OSCC took over
funding from Indian Affairs in 1991.
Truly there have been many things
to celebrate both for the Community
of Siksika and those who have partici-
pated in the College.
Lesley Stimson jokingly said that
she had worked as offcial offce
gopher for 29 years. She originally
started as the librarian and retired
in 2006. Stimson said that if she had
to pick, one overall thing that she
learned while employed at the college
was patience, both on her part and
on the part of all those she came in
contact with. She thoroughly enjoyed
all her years at the College and was
honoured to come and join in the cel-
ebrations over the three-day event.
Many students from the past and
present along with faculty enjoyed the
reunion aspect of the event, sharing
their accomplishments over the years.
Chief Fred Rabbit Carrier summed
up the event by saying that OSCC
has helped numerous citizens of Sik-
sika to further their education and for
many has been an integral stepping
stone. In the 40 years since its incep-
tion, OSCC has grown remarkably and
has to be one of the best kept secrets
in our local municipalities. I am very
proud of this institution and all it
stands for.

The Strathmore 4-H Club has a
new project to offer to its members.
In addition to the photography and
scrapbooking activities currently
available, 4-H members will also
have the option of taking part in
the performing arts program.
This year were going to intro-
duce the performing arts which
will include everything from ana-
lyzing character traits to trips to
Rosebud theatre to look at costume
designing, and possibly puppetry,
said Beverly Swalwell, who will be
teaching the program.
She said one thing that is going
to make it very exciting for the kids
is they are going to be bringing in
guest speakers from Strathmore
Theatre Players, and hopefully
from Rosebud and Calgary theatre
groups. Though 4-H was at REVS,
performing arts wasnt listed as an
option because it only recently be-
came fnalized.
Swalwell used to direct for cen-
tral Alberta theatre years ago and
her kids have always been inter-
ested in drama. She said when the
club is looking to attract new mem-
bers they need to look at things
that arent being offered anywhere
else.
Most people think 4-H is just
about animals and if you dont own
a cow then you cant join 4-H, said
Swalwell.
In order to participate in one of
the projects, participants must be a
member of 4-H. The club fee is ap-
proximately $80 for the year. The
cost of the project would be an ex-
tra $15 to $20.
The club is looking at hosting a
meeting for the project on the sec-
ond and fourth Monday nights of
the month.
This seasons frst club meeting
will be held in the Chuck Mercer
room at the Civic Centre on Oct. 10
at 7 p.m. Interested parties will be
able to register and fnd out more
about 4-H and the projects they
have available.
Id love to have a minimum of
eight to 10 kids to work with, just
in our project, she said.
Members have to be nine by
January 1 in order to join 4-H, and
they can stay through even after
high school.
For more information about the
club, contact Yvonne Anderson at
403-934-1986. She is the overall
club leader of all of the projects.
For more information on 4-H in
Alberta, visit www.4-H.ab.ca

project for members

Mario Prusina
Times Reporter
After a tough loss to open the 2011-
2012 campaign, the Wheatland Kings
had to forget about the past and focus
on the future.
The local Junior B team did exactly
that when they won a thrilling 4-3 over-
time game against the Coaldale Cop-
perhead on Sept. 24 at the Strathmore
Family Centre, a mere 24-hours after a
lopsided 6-2 loss in Didsbury against
the Mountainview Colts.
The Kings were battling the Colts neck-
neck, before offciating changed the
complexion of the game, and the Colts
responded with four powerplay goals
en route to the win. Wheatland used the
motivation of playing their home opener
next night to earn a split in their open-
ing weekend.
It was exciting, but it wasnt quite the
game that we would have liked to play,
but (well take it), said head coach Doug
Murphy after the home opener. Its com-
ing together you can see the speed,
you can see the skill and the character
hanging on until the end.
(Youre) seeing some of the matu-
rity. There are guys here going into
their fourth season and weve been in
overtime before and we havent always
been on the right end of it. Now, with
the talent weve got and the maturity,
these one-goal and tied games are not as
daunting as they used to be.
Two years ago (this game would have
been), at best a tie but more likely a loss.
Instead, veteran defenceman Graham
Douglas joined the rush and unleashed
a slapshot that found its way to the back
of the net.
It feels pretty good, especially the
home opener, said Hussar native Doug-
las after the game. I wanted to get in the
zone and I thought, take the shot and it
went in.
While the Kings needed overtime to
secure the two points, the game wouldnt
have gone past the third period if not for
the outstanding goaltending of Richie
Hubbell.
The second year King made a handful
of jaw-dropping saves to secure the win.
Richie stole that one for us, said Mur-
phy. He was absolutely outstanding to-
night and he gives us full value (every
time hes on the ice).
Despite the barrage of shots against,
the goaltender relished the role of stop-
ping Coaldale.
I felt the adrenaline from the home
opener kind of helped pump me up for
the game to play better, said Hubbell.
The defence played really good they
made (them take) all the shots from the
point so I could see them. There was not
a lot of traffc and the defence made my
life easier.
However, things were a little more hec-
tic on Friday night. The team was taken
off of their game by shady offciating.
We had a dirty hit (against) our team
their guy wrecked our guy from be-
hind, really dirty, said Hubbell. Then
after, the guy shot the puck and I made
the save, and their guy tackled me into
the net. The puck never went in the net
until after the whistle went, but he called
it a goal.
That lead to a line-brawl, which lead
our whole team to lose its focus. That
was the turning point and it went down-
hill from there.
Despite the loss, the Kings turned thing
around in time for the home opener.
The team will now head to Medicine
Hat on Sept. 30 to tangle with the Cubs,
before hosting the High River Flyers Oct.
1 at the Strathmore Family Centre. Game
time is 8 p.m.
Kings split weekend opener
Novice and atom level players flled the ice at the Family Centre, trying out for a spot on their respec-
tive teams. The weekend began with goalie tryouts on Sept. 23 and the rest of the weekend saw ap-
proximately 100 goalies and players showing off their skills.

Strathmore and area
residents can look for-
ward to one more rodeo
in the area this year. On
Oct. 1 and 2, the Strath-
more and District High
School Rodeo will be at
the Agricultural Society
rodeo grounds hosting a
rodeo to make up for the
loss of the annual rodeo
in May.
Concerns arose this
past May about horses
contracting the disease
equine neurological her-
pes virus, EHV-1, which-
saw rodeos all over the
province being shut
down.
Because of last Mays
issues, organizers have
decided there will be two
rodeos this year.
The frst rodeo for the
kids took place on the
last weekend of August
and there will be one
more over the weekend
before the kids break for
the winter.
Its free admission.
With the help of the
sponsors and the vol-
unteers weve raised
enough money that we
wont have to charge ad-
mission, said Strathmore
and District High School
Rodeo Association Presi-
dent Dan Dowler.
Everybody is wel-
come to come and take in
some of the High School
Rodeo kids and theres
some pretty impressive
talent in our district, so
it should be some pretty
good rodeo.
People who attend
can look forward to see-
ing their favourite events
from calf roping to saddle
bronc and much more.
Final
Strathmore
rodeo of
the season
After losing their season opener 6-2 to the Mountain-
view Colts, the Wheatland Kings rebounded to defeat the
Coaldale Copperheads 4-3 in overtime on Sept. 24 at the
Strathmore Family Centre.

The senior Spartans had two games
last week, the frst at home against the
Chestermere Cowboys. This was the
frst home game of the season for the
team. Wearing their new blue jerseys
they were able to pick up their frst
win of the year. The game started off
slow for the Spartans, as at one point
the Chestermere Cowboys had a 14-3
lead. The second half of the game was
owned by the Spartans with running
back Dakota Barrie racking up over
100 yards thanks to strong play from
the offensive line. Dakota was run-
ning like he was on a mission, scoring
his frst touchdown this year. What he
didnt know was that he woke up an
offensive machine.
The offensive line was able to open
up huge holes in the second half and
the Spartans offense took the lead be-
cause of a strong running game. They
cruised in the second half, to win the
game 41-14. Thanks also to the strong
defense that secured the win with an
interception for a touchdown by half
back David Kuljanin.
The second game of the week for
the senior team was held on the turf
surface of Shouldice feld in Calgary.
The Spartans played against the Ernest
Manning Gryphons. The Gryphons
moved the ball down the feld on the
Spartans, who were still able to keep
it close thanks to a big kickoff return
by James Nakamura. It was a close
game with the frst half closed out by
a touchdown pass to slot back David
Kuljanin. The Gryphons came out of
half time taking a big lead. The last
play of the game was a touchdown
pass; Cory Campbell connected with
wide receiver James Giancola for a f-
nal score of 48-20. It was a much bet-
ter game than the scoreboard showed.
Hopefully all of the hard work paid
off for the Spartans away game against
the Burt Church Chargers in Airdrie on
Sept. 27. Result unavailable as of press
time.
The Peewee Spartans were in action
Saturday in Wetaskiwin to face the
Wildcats. It was a good game for both
teams.
They were the nicest team we
have played, said trainer Lori Klauck.
The coaches, the parents, the kids all
seemed to be of a similar mind set of
what the Strathmore organization rep-
resents.
The coaches were happy for the op-
portunity to spread the ball around.
The fve players scoring the touch-
downs were Austin Wasut, Kobe Hol-
loway, Cooper Fargey, Riley Bahan and
Ethan Monaghan.
The Peewees have a bye week giv-
ing them an opportunity to rest up and
build on their skills in preparation for
their Oct. 8th game against the Red
Deer Hornets in Red Deer.

Local Access Franchise Fee
on Local Gas Billings
Please be advised that the Village of Rockyford
is proposing to increase the local access fee
which is charged to ATCO Gas for use of Mu-
nicipal lands for its gas lines effective January
01, 2012. The municipal franchise fee is recov-
ered by ATCO Gas from its customers as the lo-
cal access fee on gas billings from all custom-
ers that receive gas services in the Village of
Rockyford.
The current franchise fee is set at 29% of ATCO
Gas delivery revenues and will increase to
30% effective January 1, 2012. For an average
residential customer using a 120GJ/year this
will result in an average monthly increase of
approximately $0.32. For the average resident
your total annual franchise fee will be approxi-
mately $114.20 per year.
Questions or concerns should be directed
to Lois L. Mountjoy, Administrator, Village of

It was yet another disappointing
game for our bantam football team.
The Spartans played against the Spring-
bank Phoenix at home on Saturday, los-
ing 39-0.
Coach Rob Musselman made some
position changes late in the game, re-
sulting in some forward movement for
the Strathmore offence. The defense
was strong in the second half against
Springbanks backup offence, not al-
lowing any points in the second half.
Hopefully next week the bantam team
can turn their second half into a full
game performance. It was noted by the
coaches and parents that the players
on this team have a lot of heart, since
they continue to come out to practice in
spite of a winless season.
Bantam Spartans remain winless
The Spartans ban-
tam football team
was up against
Springbank on Sept.
24. it was a tough
game and due to a
lack of extra players
to help give some
down time, the ban-
tam Spartans didnt
fare to well, ending
the game at 39-0.
