THE STUFF THAT REUNIONS AND FAMILIES ARE MADE OF I held his sweet little self in my arms, inhaled his brown sugar baby smell and gazed at the world reflected in his innocent blue eyes. I held the child close to me as I sat in the rocking chair in the cheerful nursery. And as I rocked, the sun played peek-aboo with the wall hanging that says, ‘I’ll love you to the moon and back’, and his two older brothers played at my feet. The two-year-old watched me closely, finally pulling his thumb out of his mouth long enough to tell me proudly, “that’s my new brother.” The five-year-old took great pains to explain to me that the baby who is now two-months-old has many talents. “He can roll over, he can kick really well, he can wave his arms and he can smile already,” he said, puffing out his little chest with pride. I rock the baby slowly, and with every creak of the rocking chair, I feel my hurry up deadline driven world slow down. I rock slowly, comfortably, steadily. The children play and the baby slowly closes his eyes. And time, as I knew it, stood still. As I rock I let my mind drift out of the nursery and to summer and the red-circled days of summer. Reunions! Summer reunions! And I think about the people who attend these reunions. A long, long time ago, they were all young, just as these three boys are now. Somebody’s brother. Somebody’s sister. Playing together. Bonding. Feeling that family pride that is born somewhere inside like a tiny flame and lives on forever.

Whoever approves should be the one who pays Dear Editor, Spending $25,000 to find out if residents want a beach? Are you kidding? Totally ridiculous, just like Lakeshore Drive speed bumps and the ‘plastic boards’ in the sidewalk they are replacing with coloured concrete! We the taxpayers pay again! Whoever approved these things in the first place should be the ones to pay! Just stealing from the people! Rob Lanciault, Sylvan Lake

this. Once, a long time ago, they were somebody’s kid, somebody brother, somebody’s sister. Once they ate their lunch out of a tin lunch pail, suffered the indignities of the strap, learned long division, struggled through exams and failure, experienced their first kiss and their first heartbreak. And then, one day, they moved on. Now they have come back. I got to take a walk down memory lane with a few old timers from Rimbey the other day at their reunion and as I talked and mixed and mingled with them all it was like the clock in the hall spun backwards for several decades and they were all young again. “This is my sister,” a grey haired lady with a sweet smile told me, as she introduced me to the woman sitting beside her. “She’s 91.” And the pride in her voice was not dimmed by time or age or separation, but like my grandson’s, it was strong. It was, in fact, unmistakable.

It starts here, I think. This pride thing. It is the invisible thread that binds reunion goers together. It is the excited feeling behind the name tag, the sparkle in the eyes hidden behind the progressive lenses, the laughter that bubbles up out of nowhere; laughter that spans the barriers of bridges long since burned and time and distance. They come to these reunions from every walk of life and they come from all over. Farmers. Accountants. Teachers. Nurses and doctors. Ranchers and lawyers. Grandmas and grandpas. Great grandpas and grandmas. They converge at halls and Legions and other venues wearing nametags and smiles and hope. They want to remember. They want to go back. I watch my grandsons play quietly in the pool of sunlight on the floor. Once, each and every one of these nametag-bearing seniors was young like TREENA MIELKE BLACK PRESS

Councillors split on giving cash to Tour of Alberta cycling event; motion lost BY STEVE DILLS SYLVAN LAKE NEWS

In a split 4-3 decision, Sylvan Lake councillors voted against contributing financially to the premier Tour of Alberta cycling event in September. That may mean the event bypasses Sylvan Lake, according to Ron Lebsack, director of community services. “My impression is if there’s no cash they wouldn’t be going through Sylvan Lake, that’s my own gut feeling,” he told councillors during their debate June 9. The organizing committee for the Central Alberta leg of the race had asked for a cash contribution of

$30,000 as well as provision of in-kind resources for road cleaning and road closures. Councillor Megan Chernoff suggested a $10,000 cash contribution. “Their money request didn’t make sense with what we’ve given away in other Recreation, Arts and Culture grants,” she said. Describing the event as a “very brief ride through Sylvan Lake”, councillor Jas Payne said he could see a larger donation if the community was a start or end point. Then there would be an economic benefit. “I don’t support it. I don’t see the benefit other than watching bikes go by. I don’t see a sustaining, lasting benefit to Sylvan Lake. I think $10,000

could go a long way to other programs.” The Town of Innisfail, which is the start point, has agreed to contribute $20,000 to the event. Councillor Dale Plante wasn’t in favour of providing any cash. “I see minimal benefit to Sylvan Lake.” “I have the same feeling,” said Councillor Chris Lust. “For them to spend 45 minutes in our community, $30,000 for the privilege of coming to our community, I feel that’s hard to take. I don’t think they provided information to show there is value to us.” Councillor Matt Prete said, “I wasn’t prepared to swallow $30,000.” But he added it does promote fitness and he believes it is something that could be fairly exciting to see. He suggested supporting it for a

year and evaluating the idea. “If Innisfail is giving $20,000 for the start, I can’t see giving any more than $10,000 for a ride through.” Mayor Sean McIntyre noted it would require a mid-year budget adjustment “of a considerable size that would impact the community greatly”. He was also concerned about the equity of giving a donation to an organization outside the community when ongoing events in the community wouldn’t have the same opportunity. Voting in favour of contributing $10,000 plus inkind resources were Prete, Chernoff and Councillor Graham Parsons. Voting against the motion were Plante, McIntyre, Lust and Payne.

Design and tendering planned for next stage of Lakeshore redevelopment BY STEVE DILLS SYLVAN LAKE NEWS

During their regular meeting June 9, Sylvan Lake councillors: • directed staff to proceed with design and tendering for Lakeshore Drive Phase 5 (east of 50th Street) based on an option which includes a sidewalk being created as part of the existing boulevard on the north side, sidewalk on the south side in front of the Best Western and on the south side of the road between 50 and 50A Street, including the intersection at Lakeshore Drive and 50th Street. Estimated cost to complete the work is in the range of $1.6 million. • accepted for information an infrastructure study prepared by Tagish Engineering which provides estimates on the viability and constraints of servicing existing annexed land and future land planned for annexation with such things as water, sewer and transportation systems. The study also provided estimates on costs involved in increasing capacity of reservoirs and sewage lagoons. The report stated presently the town has sufficient water supply from wells to handle a population of 18,000. It recommends that prior to hitting that number, a regional system be established. Beyond a population of 22,000 either significant upgrades of the lagoon system will be required or a regional connection to another treatment facility is needed. The report was one document needed for the town’s planned annexation proposal. • passed first reading of a bylaw to increase the off-site levy amounts for water, sanitary and storm systems which developers pay. The interim increase is proposed at 25 per cent. The town’s existing off-site levy bylaw uses amounts established based on 2007 construction costs. A complete review of the bylaw is underway but the staff report said it wouldn’t be completed in time for the 2014 construction season. • passed third reading of a bylaw to provide for necessary changes required for the automated collection of household garbage. • agreed to a budget adjustment of $21,000 to purchase 300 new 360 litre waste receptacles to allow residents the option to upgrade from 240 litre carts which are going to be used when automated collection of household garbage begins. The town has already purchased 6,000 of the 240 litre carts. • passed first reading of a bylaw to close part of 48th Street between 48th and 49th Avenue (in front of the aquatic, curling and multiplex complexes) and set a public hearing on the issue for July 14.

Deer in the evening. Innisfail-Sylvan Lake MLA Kerry Towle was among those who spoke during the day’s gatherings. She encouraged students to be proud of their educational accomplishments, and to embrace the future that now lies ahead of them. “Find your passion, whatever it may be,” she said. “If you have to volunteer to find that passion, take the opportunity. Remember, there’s nothing better than giving back to

those who have given to you.” Sylvan Lake mayor Sean McIntyre, himself an HJ Cody graduate, reminded students of the hard work that led to their educational success. “As students, you’ve been tested, and tested, and tested some more,” he said. “You’ve come through good times and challenging times, and after many years of effort and commitment, you’ve achieved an uncontested victory in your graduation. “You did it, and you made your

community proud.” Lissa Steele, speaking on behalf of Chinook’s Edge School Division, offered graduates some thoughtful remarks, noting, “The only place success comes before work is in the dictionary”. The graduates’ minds, she added, are “like parachutes: They work better when they’re open”. School board trustee Jackie Swainson reminded students of the opportunities that lie ahead of them, now that they’ve completed high school. “The world is your oyster,” she said. “This means you can do or achieve anything you want in life, because you have the ability, the opportunity and the freedom to do so.” Guest speaker Graham Parsons accompanied his speech with photos and videos of his own life, describing to graduates his career as a hockey player, and his time spent in the now-closed arena. He encouraged graduates to remain defiant in achieving their goals, despite the inevitable setbacks they’ll suffer along the way. “For many of you in this room, paths will be found with ease,” he said. “But there are some out there who have not figured out their direction — unconfident, unsettled, scared and frustrated. To that, I say don’t give up.” Continued on Page 11

Achievements celebrated Continued from Page 10 He described his own recent change in fortunes, which began with the event that left his “heart ripped out” when the arena collapsed earlier this year. That ultimately led to the “latest, greatest moment of (his) life” when Sylvan Lake was eventually named Kraft Hockeyville 2014. Parsons concluded by reminding graduates of the many volunteer opportunities that exist within town, encouraging them to “roll up the sleeves” and get involved. TJ Sloboda and Paul Kim read the valedictory address, and offered thanks to the many people who have helped them get to where they are today. “We face a great journey ahead — one that we could not have made it to without the help and guidance of those who have come before us,” said Sloboda. They also shared some advice with their fellow graduating classmates. “Always strive to be the best you can, and don’t let anyone tell you what you can and can’t do,” said Kim. Principal Dave Elwood was the last to speak during the afternoon ceremony. He encouraged students to continue learning, despite being finished high school. He also told them to embrace the future without fear. “You have the skills now to take on anything you face, whether it’s a big problem or a small problem,” he said. “It’s OK to fail, it’s OK to try, and it’s OK to ask for help.” Two awards were presented in the afternoon: Sean McIntyre presented the Mayor’s Citizenship Award to Jamai Bell, while Kerry Towle presented the MLA’s Citizenship Award to Rebecca Lieng. The HJ Cody School Choir also performed several times throughout the day.

In the future, whether life takes our graduates to college, university or to an apprenticeship, we hope the lessons of commitment, dedication and hard work that they have learned at school will serve them well.

Dills named Rotarian of the Year BY STUART FULLARTON SYLVAN LAKE NEWS

When it came to selecting a Rotarian of the Year, this year’s recipient was an “obvious choice”, according to outgoing president Marla Maher. She presented it to Steve Dills during Rotary Club of Sylvan Lake’s annual Presidential Turnover Cruise Friday night. “(Dills) really is a true Rotarian,” she said, lauding Dills’ work not only with the Rotary, but also with other organizations such as the Legion,

Hockeyville and Spirit of Sylvan Yuletide Festival. “He’s probably busier than anyone on the planet, and you never hear him complain.” When it comes to fulfilling the club’s commitment to truth, fairness, goodwill, and friendship, Dills ticks all the boxes, and exemplifies the club’s ‘service above self ’ motto, said Maher. “Steve is the absolute epitome of this, not just through Rotary, but everything he does in the community.” Up-to-date Information on the club is available on the Rotary Club of Sylvan Lake Facebook page.
