Rimbey fire services regionalized, town and county reach agreement agreement between the Town of Rimbey and Ponoka County the title of the firehall and the equipment have been transferred to the county for the sum of $1 for 15 years. In addition, the town has agreed to transfer ownership of the capital equipment and vehicles currently utilized by the Rimbey fire department to Ponoka County.

BY TREENA MIELKE

A new agreement between Ponoka County and the Town of Rimbey will see fire services for the town regionalized. At its April 27 meeting, council unanimously agreed to ratify the West Country Fire Services Agreement. Under the terms of the

The Summer Village of Parkland Beach will contribute $500 annually for fire protection under this agreement. During the term of the agreement, Rimbey will not pay the county for fire services. Ponoka County Reeve Paul McLauchlin said the majority of the fire calls are

in Ponoka County. “Sixty per cent of the calls are in Ponoka County and many of the ones in town are false alarms.” McLauchlin sees the move as positive. “It will be seamless and it will help the (Rimbey) department to become regional. We will provide the full administrative weight, but the

fire chief and deputy chief will not change. Fire chief John Weisgerber also sees the move as a positive one. “I think it will be good for the town and the county. The county is far better equipped to take care of the paperwork. It is a win/win situation.” Mayor Rick Pankiw also

endorsed the agreement. “At the end of the day it will allow the fire fighters to obtain more expedient training. It will really enhance our training ability and the county is paying for everything including maintenance on the equipment. It is definitely a win/win situation for us, the county and the taxpayers.”

Treena Mielke On The Other Side The most significant thing about my column this week is not the headline, nor the content, nor even the ending which some, but not all readers may make it to, no doubt, breathing a sigh of relief. Finally. The end! No, it won’t be any of the above that give the column of May 5, 2015 significance. Actually, there is, however, one thing that will make this column stand out among the many, many columns that I have penned. Okay, typed. Penned just sounds much more eloquent and writer-like making me think

Red Deer, Alberta Published every Tuesday by PNG Prairie Newspaper Group in community with: Publisher: Fred Gorman

next confused and unsure person. Years ago, I remember my dad, who was a staunch Social Credit type person, going to all these rallies and talking to the big cheeses like he was on an equal footing with them. My dad was like that. He was as at home in the political arena as he was with a fishing rod. As for me, I was always tagging after him. In those years, that’s all there was, me and him and this shaggy yellow dog who followed both of us. I remember going to my dad on one Social Credit type rally. It was a warm night in June and the air was filled with the perfume of wild roses. I put one in my hair, as I tagged along

behind my dad, on his way to talk to the big, important people wearing suits and smiles. I didn’t listen, of course, to their talk, but only gently patted the rose in my hair, feeling young and glamourous and more than slightly bored. But back to the present. This year, it seems the political waters are murkier than ever as mud slinging fork tongued individuals hiding behind a façade of plastic smiles and plastic words, tell us their perception of the truth. It is difficult to make an informed decision, because, politics like any good story has more than one side, indeed more than two sides. But by Wednesday, regardless of change, we will

all have moved forward. People will have gone back to work, to the coffee shops and to their homes. And, the decision will have been made, whether it be a minority or a majority government. And we Albertans who live in the land of the wild rose, where oil prices rise and fall with alarming regularity, and new generations of sweet little babies keep springing up to keep our schools full and our teachers busy, will keep on keeping on. And, all we know for sure is that we have, and will continue to have, the freedom of choice. And regardless of who gets in to run our province, that, for sure, has to be a good thing!

The second hand smoke of democracy is filling the air

Jonah Kondro

Production:

of Mark Twain whom I have long admired from afar. Actually this has nothing to do with my column at all, but that fact it will be hot off the press (another favourite journalist type saying of mine) on the same day of our provincial election. And, on this day most (okay some) people will be exercising their democratic right and going to the voting polls. And as much as people grumble and complain and mutter about an election that is far from free for us, Joe public type people, we need to exercise that democratic right. Of course, any kind of exercise is good, but going to the voting polls is an exercise unlike the type of exercise that can cause people to sweat or ladies such as myself to glow. True, there is the question as to whom to vote for? As for me, I have covered political forums, listened to debates and read the paper (the other papers), and should be a dyed in the wool, something! But, alas, I’m not. I’m as confused and unsure as the

The contents of my post office box spills onto the floor. Among my bills and financial statements, political brochures, pamphlets, and democratic propaganda fall to the ground like loose tobacco from a hand rolled cigarette. Democracy is a frail Zig-Zag paper trying to hold together as the pop-

ulation struggles to light the open end of the rollie with a Zippo lighter that has run dry of fuel. The “Voting Information” card, the folded “Prentice Plan” pamphlet, the “Re-Elect Joe Anglin” brochure, and some clay coloured “Do the Research, Find the Truth” letter all cover a portion of my kitchen table. The boulevards in Rimbey are picketed with the candidate’s signs — insidiously polluting our peaceful kingdom in the country. I feel like the processes of a democratic election wastes more resources and paper than in the latest printings of Fifty Shades of Grey. I will vote just like I have in every other election. The political party or candi-

date I vote for has changed from election to election — but like getting the flu shot, I proclaim that voting is good for the masses and the individual. Cognitive dissonance during the election season can be a conscious discomfort for the irregular voter. “My vote doesn’t matter”; “Nothing changes”; “I don’t know how to vote”; “What if I help vote the wrong person in” — all can be thoughts and worries that spring into the minds of the politically careless. Instead of rationalizing the voting laziness on May 5th, 2015, pull your trousers up, turn off Netflix, and wander down to wherever the place is that you can vote. It feels good — and voting democratically pisses off

the terrorists. Regardless of the rationalization that occurs during and after the election season, politics are here to stay. It is easy to say “as long as the hospitals stay open and the streets lights stay lit, I’m happy”, but the second hand smoke of democracy and policy is inhaled by everyone. You cannot avoid cancer by believing you will never be diagnosed with it; nor can you exclude yourself from the politics of Alberta while believing the fuel tank in your vehicle will never run dry. If you don’t like the democratic scenario that is facing every citizen in Alberta, maybe you should buy a plane ticket to a country where it is a gamble to

pass a hospital with open doors or travel down streets that are illuminated. It is a rich gift to be born into a province within a country where if you want you can wear pink cowboy boots, can sport neck tattoos, and can listen to Merle Hagrid or Motörhead. The political reality cannot be shared, liked, or written about in 140 characters. The little ballot needs your X to help decide policy, and to protect the ideals and freedoms that allow for status updates and selfie uploads to remain free from vicious persecution. Freedom, no matter how minute, needs a Zippo that is full of fluid. All it takes is one vote, one individual — one voice to ignite the fuse of change.

Well-known Rimbey resident passes away BY TREENA MIELKE

A well-known friendly lady with a sweet smile and a wonderful sense of humour, often seen in her wheelchair out and about on the streets of Rimbey, has passed away. Heather Mae Millar died on Sat., April 18. She was 51. Miller was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 1983. In 1998 she moved into the long-term care facility of the Rimbey Hospital. She was to remain living there until her passing this spring. Colleen Weyman, MS Ambassador for the MS Society of Canada, the Alberta & NWT Division, spoke fondly of Millar. “I would say it was not the best life to offer someone so young, but she made the best out of her life that she could.” She was not a complainer, Weyman added. “She always had a good joke to tell. She had an awesome memory and her mathematics skills were impeccable. She enjoyed playing cards and knitted scarves until she no longer had the ability. She worked tirelessly for the MS Society, collecting money and increasing awareness of the disease.” Millar was familiar with Rimbey and was very aware of what was needed in the community to help the disabled. “She knew her way around Rimbey like the back of her hand. She loved getting outside and getting around.” Weyman said Millar will truly be missed. “She has left an imprint on everyone’s heart that she came in contact with,” she said.

Good day Rimbey,

It seems we have yet to be properly introduced. Sgt. Kyle Koller and Oĸcer Jay Klause are your Community Peace Oĸcers. Sgt. Koller has been in Rimbey since January 2014 and brings 20+ Years of Law Enforcement experience to town. His experience is comprised of Ɵme as a City of Calgary Police Oĸcer, Alberta Sheriī, CorrecƟonal Oĸcer, and as a business owner. He is the Sergeant and manager for protecƟve services as well as the director of Emergency Management for the Town of Rimbey. He is a coach, volunteer and proud hockey Dad. Oĸcer Jay Klause was here for the summer of 2014 on an interim basis and accepted a full Ɵme posiƟon in January of this year. This is his Įrst foray into Law Enforcement with past experience in construcƟon, sales and as an entrepreneur. He likes long distance running over mountains, driving stylishly old cars, listening to old music and a frosty mug o’ root beer. Many residents are asking, “What is a Peace Oĸcer and why does the Town need us?” Community Peace Oĸcers are individuals who work to uphold and enforce certain laws and regulaƟons in Alberta. A “CPO” is given powers and authority, under the current Alberta Peace Oĸcer Act (May, 2007).

The enforcement carried out by peace oĸcers is recognized as supplemental to, and not a for, the police service (RCMP);

Royal Canadian Mounted Police Oĸcers have a much wider range of authority than Community Peace Oĸcers which limits the amount of Ɵme the RCMP can allot to dealing with local issues such as traĸc and bylaw enforcement. RCMP focus on criminal code oīences such as NarcoƟc Oīences, Driving under the InŇuence, Assaults, Robbery, TheŌs, et .al;

Peace Oĸcers have the power to arrest and detain individuals as well as to arrest on warrants under Criminal Code of Canada 494 and 495;

replacement

Peace Oĸcers focus on Parked and Moving Traĸc oīences, Municipal Bylaws, Community EducaƟon and engage in Special Joint OperaƟons with Dangerous Goods and Commercial Vehicle InspecƟons; During traĸc stops Peace Oĸcers have the authority to request your Driver Licence, RegistraƟon and Insurance informaƟon to conduct their invesƟgaƟon. Failure to do so can result in Įnes or arrest;

Peace Oĸcers are constantly upgrading their skills to ensure they are able to serve the community most eīecƟvely. The following are Appointments your Community Peace Oĸcers have:

Traĸc Safety Act – Radar/Lidar;

Moving violaƟons such as speeding, stop signs, distracted driving and parking issues;

Currently we are working with the schools in Rimbey to change signs on 52 Street and alleviate problems associated with pick up and drop oī of students. Our goal is to iniƟate a “Kiss n go” so that parents can safely get children to class;

Check stops dealing with vehicle equipment regulaƟons and safety. Community

Adding playground signs on 46 Ave, 52 St by Lions Playground and traĸc signs adjustment to accommodate drivers on side streets. Regional

Rimbey Peace Oĸcers also have contracts with Gull Lake, Parkland Beach and Four (4) Sylvan Lake Summer Villages to serve those areas in all of the above needs. This allows Rimbey to have the same Peace Oĸcer services at a diminuƟve cost to residents. Did you know??? The Peace Oĸcers give more warnings and educaƟon than Ɵckets. The Peace Oĸcers drive around your community looking for unsightly premises, animal remains, pet odours and garbage that smells. This is your community and we want to be sure it stays clean and aƩracƟve for residents, visitors and potenƟal businesses. We also want to limit disease and … We’ll call them doggie landmines in school yards and playgrounds! Q&A Mark asked: “How come you guys are pulling people over on 50 Ave early in the morning (6AM)?” If you are exceeding the speed limit or failing to stop for the 4 way stop and we are around then we will stop you for a traĸc oīence. On several occasions we have observed vehicles travelling at 80K in the 50K zone with one vehicle registering on radar at 103K. The average when people think we are not in town is 80K. Richard asked: “Why are you guys wiping oī license plates?” We understand that Rimbey is a farm community making it diĸcult to keep plates clean. Under the Traĸc Safety Act, if a plate is obscured and we see an infracƟon, we have the right to clean it oī to determine IF the vehicle is registered, whether it has been involved in a serious criminal maƩer, is stolen or to obtain Registered Owner InformaƟon. ChrisƟne asked: “How many Ɵckets do you need for your quota?” We do not have a quota; Seriously! Quotas to us mean that we HAVE to pull people over for grey area infracƟons to ensure we have a job. Council sets the yearly budget, which includes wages to ensure that we do our job imparƟally and without infracƟons holding weight towards promoƟons or demoƟons. As your Community Peace Oĸcers we are here to ensure your safety, your family’s safety and that visitors to this community are enƟced to spend more Ɵme here. Parking is a huge concern to us, speciĮcally in areas near crosswalks, traĸc signs and Įre lanes. Speeding, rolling through stop signs, seat belts and cell phone use are the main infracƟons we see in town and as a result focus on rigorously. If you have quesƟons or concerns our door is always open and coīee is on. We do have a new online service request form that goes right to our phones for quicker response Ɵmes that you can do from the comfort of your home. Feel free to visit the town website at Rimbey.com if you have a bylaw issue! Thanks Rimbey and drive safe.

BY TREENA MIELKE

This year’s trade show, sponsored by the Rimbey Chamber of Commerce and Victim Services, offered a potpourri of booths, information and entertainment. The Rimbey Expo held April 24 and 25 at the arena in the Peter Lougheed Community Centre attracted 55 vendors, up considerably from last year when only 32 booths were set up. “I thought it was excellent,” said Carrie Vaartstra, office administrator for the Rimbey and District Chamber of Commerce. “Sharing our future together was our theme and it was very fitting. And we had a diverse group of exhibitors.” The partnership between the chamber and Victim Services for the trade show proved to be a win/win. “We were able to work together to bring awareness to the public,” said Vaartstra, adding the trade show was held during National Victims of Crime Awareness Week. Friday evening started off with great entertainment as local singer/songwriter Debbie Bergeron performed some of her award singing songs. Later Sgt. Clayton Wilbern spoke about illegal substances in a community including the signs and symptoms to watch for. Wilbern also spoke on Saturday when he focused on legalizing marijuana and the effects on society. Lucy, the victim services dog trained by Dogs with Wings to help ease the effects of trauma that victims experience, was at the trade show, Saturday. Rimbey Gymnastic Club and Val Hilliker, a local ventriloquist along with balloon artist Sheriff McTwist and face painter Rosie Posie provided diverse entertainment. A pancake breakfast sponsored by Joanne Marshall was held Saturday morning in the arena foyer and Rimbey 4-H Club manned the front door.

The talent coming to the Hoadley Community Hall next week is an impressive mix of seasoned entertainers and young rising stars. And while they all bring their own special brand of music, poetry and story telling to the stage, they all have one thing in common. They are as Albertan as the wild rose. Alberta’s Men & Women of Country Music will be at the Hoadley Community Hall on May 9 from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. This year’s lineup is to

include many of the wellknown names from Alberta, all of which promise to keep the day’s entertainment at a lively pace. “Every year when the show comes together the talent that walks on that stage is amazing and wonderful,” said coordinator Shirley Hartman. She said lifetime awards will be handed out to Lou Paul from Red Deer, who is known for his musical abilities and sense of humour. He has performed across Canada, U.S.A. and entertains in Mazatlan, Mexico. Lifetime awards are pre-

sented to entertainers who have been in the music industry for 30 years or more. A rising star award, given to young people 16 and under, will be presented to Sydney Mae from Cochrane. Mae is a young lady who is proving to be a powerhouse in Alberta’s music industry, said Hartman. “She is the youngest performer to play on the main stage of the Big Valley Jamboree and has won many talent shows and always keeps her community in mind.” The rising star award is presented in memory of Diane Brandson who began the show several years ago. “This was her passion, to get Alberta talent together, to showcase experienced artists and give younger tal-

This year’s lineup includes award winning cowboy poet Doris Daley. “If you want to know the west, listen to Doris Daley,” said Hartman. “Her gift is unique and her appeal is irresistible.” Brianna Lizotte, a 14-year-old old time fiddle player and Charlie Ewing who sings about cowboys, Indians and wide-open spaces will also be part of the star studded show.

Agrim Centre holds first event BY TREENA MIELKE

The Rimbey Agrim Centre is not quite finished, but even so, events are being held there with large crowds in attendance. The Cory Glenn Performance ranch horse round up, held April 24 and 25 was the very first event ever held at the Agrim Centre. Agriculture Society treasurer Shirley Ingram said the parking lot was full to capacity with the overflow spilling over into the auction mart grounds. “There was a very good turnout, we had four to five hundred people there. It was awesome.” Ingram is grateful for the help of Ponoka County who

brought in equipment and hauled in gravel to get ready for the horse show and sale. However, the centre is not quite finished, she said. “The lobby is not done and we need cement on the second level. We are still looking for donations,” she added. “We need quite a bit of cement.” She said the horse round up was held at the back of the centre where the riding arena is. The Great Canadian Performance Horse Sale was held the first weekend in May. The high school rodeo to be held May long weekend will take place at the Agrim Centre. The Alberta Barrel Racing Association and the

Kansas Ridge Gymkhana Club will use the centre beginning in May. Ingram said the Agrim Centre’s new website will be operational soon and will have a calendar of events. Raffle tickets for a chance to win from a selection of 10,000 prizes are available from board members of Stationery Stories and Sounds. The opportunity to advertise with signage or to purchase square footage at the centre is also available.

One-man show at Bentley political forum held April 29 BY JUNE NORVILA

What was supposed to be an all-candidates political forum turned out to be a one-man show. Incumbent Joe Anglin was the only

candidate that showed up at the political forum held in Bentley the evening of April 29. About 75 people came, a very good turn out for Bentley, most expecting

and hoping to hear from at least three candidates, and to see them in head-to-head action. Moderator Connie Jensen, from Concerned Citizens for Democracy, the

group that set up the event, introduced herself and explained that the group tries to set up forums where there seems to be a lack of one. In many cases a local chamber of commerce hosts

them. Jensen was almost apologetic as she explained that despite invitations to all four candidates, the event would not be a debate because of lack of challengers. She explained that the PC candidate Tammy Cote did apologize for not coming, but neither the NDP candidate nor Wildrose candidate Jason Nixon had responded at all to the invitation to attend. She was very pleased with the number of perspective voters that turned out that necessitated more chairs being hauled out a number of times. The Cote campaign had been in Bentley that same day, April 29, as was verified by many in attendance who said PC pamphlets had been delivered to their homes a short while before. Questions were written ahead of time and also taken from the floor. After introducing himself and stating why he did not cross the floor but chose to sit as an independent candidate, Anglin responded to a variety of questions. “If we get a minority government we can do a lot of things different,” said Joe, mentioning that the budget had not been passed yet and explaining that an Independent can pack a lot a clout. With only one candidate out of four showing up, one might expect that some people who came to listen and ‘learn’ might leave early, but that was not the case. Most stayed right until the end. When asked what some of his local priorities were he mentioned the hospital in Rocky Mountain House and maybe a dialysis unit in the Rimbey hospital, concerns about the local environment including disappearing agricultural land

to foreign ownership and development, and how that can effect the economy of Alberta. He explained he feels decisions for things like education and health care should be made from the grassroots level up, not from the top down. “There should be local control for local needs. That is the most efficient and effective model. Who knows better what is needed than those at the local level?” “There are lots of ways to cut waste,” he said, noting high paid employees at the upper levels. When asked about a possible completion date for the Highway 12 bypass around Bentley that has been talked about for over 20 years and seen lots of money spent, Joe’s response was “maybe when you get rid of this (current) government.” When asked about a seniors’ lodge for Bentley he agreed that seniors should not be split up but have places to stay closer to home with friends and family. Some things have not worked well he said. “Deregulation of electricity has not worked! You have seen huge increases in costs to the consumer and it will continue.” He has been working on getting companies to have to reveal what the “hidden” charges on power bills are actually for. How to get the younger voters involved was seen as an issue. Joe feels having them more informed and educated about the system and how it is supposed to work is key and that high school students should be kept up-to-date. Joe reiterated how he would continue to represent and stand up for his constituents and that he does not have to bow to any party policies. The event wrapped up around 8:30 p.m.

BY JUNE NORVILA

The Great Plains made a return engagement after almost a year to the Bentley community hall on April 18. Only around 50 people were in attendance but a few of their fans even traveled from Calgary to attend. The two-person touring act with the musical, vocal, and story telling talents of Darrel and Saskia Delaronde from Courtenay, B.C. is toted as an easy, crowd-friendly style of folk concert with Celtic bluegrass, country, and European flavors mixed in; true Canadiana. They played and sang what they said were old and new for both the audience and for themselves. Some songs have a touch of gospel, some tell stories of prairie life, or family, or growing up, and other experiences with titles like Cabin Fever, Prairie Elevator, There is a Bear, Walking Shoes, Grandma's Quilt, Leave the Porchlight On, Everybody Loves at Train, Bluebird Trail, and many more. "We love the old halls and hope they never disappear. Some are not used any more but they sound so good," said Saskia, referring to the acoustics in halls that had once been built for dances and musical entertainment. During intermission volunteer hall board members offered home baking of blueberry cheesecake which sold out fast, blueberry and cranberry muffins, pumpkin pie or lemon loaf, and coffee, tea, water, and pop. The two who meld so well together have been touring Canada for a number of years, and even touring Western Europe. Darrell, the blues-rock guitar playing Métis, is from Saskatchewan. The Dutch-born Saskia, folk-roots singer-songwriter, dedicated one song to Linda Ronstadt who has Parkinson's who she said has been her inspiration along with Dolly Parton. In closing she said, "We want to thank everyone for being here. We want you to know how important it is to buy a ticket to live entertainment. Without your support we couldn't live our dream." They had CD's for sale. The three flowering door prizes were won by June Norvila, Sarah von Tettenborn, and Val Anderson.

by Kaelan 4PT STOP idling it’s bad for the air and environment! There is a lot of CO2 going in the air. If you idle, you are causing global warming. Having CO2 in the air affects animal, glaciers etc… Do you want to be killing nature? Don’t just sit there and leave your car/truck running. While your car/ truck is running, you are wasting gas and money. Some people can get really sick by breathing in the CO2 from your car/truck. Some people in Rimbey idle. Don’t let that be you. PLEASE stop idling! by Caydi 4PT Vermicomposting is way better than throwing your organics away. Vermicomposting is when you take an empty bin, ﬁll it with dirt, put worms in it, and poke holes in the top. So you put organics in the bin and the worms eat it. Amazingly you’re helping the earth and the worms. After the worms eat the organics they produce rich soil. You can use the rich soil for your garden. A lot of people don’t realize how easy it is. You might think that it will stink and worms will be crawling around. You would be wrong. If you bury your waste, then it won’t stink. I know because we’ve had one in our classroom for almost a whole year. Since vermicomposting is good for the environment, start doing it.

The Bad Mole

by Conner 2/3SO One day some people were mining black mole came out of the wal , but then a l and stole one of the man’s hard hat. The man was mad, so he set up a trap. He caught the mo le. Everybody was happy, but the mole escaped. To be continued…

By Abe 5R end”. He served many months Cher Ami is an amazing little pigeon who has an amazing story to tell. His name is French for “Dear Friend”. sey was a lawyer in New York during the fall of 1918 and delivered twelve important messages in World War II. Mr. Charles Whittlesey until the U.S called for soldiers to help France get back on its feet. Quickly he joined and went to Europe. He was commander of a small group called the Liberty Division because the soldiers wore a patch that had the Statue of Liberty on their shoulder. On October 3, 1918, Major Whittlesey and more than 500 men were trapped in a small space surrounded by enemy soldiers. Sadly, not many more than 200 men were left alive or unwounded. Major Whittlesey sent out many messenger pigeons to different majors to inform them of their position. By the next day he had only one pigeon left, Cher Ami. All afternoon the American artillery tried to help by firing hundreds of big shells right on top of them, though they had no idea where they were. Major Whittlesey called for his last pigeon, wrote a quick note, and put it in Cher Ami’s canister. The note simply said; We are parallel to the road of 276.6 Our own artillery is dropping shells directly on us For heavens sake stop it Cher Ami took off but when the Germans saw him they opened fire on the poor little bird. After a few minutes, it looked like he was going to slam into the earth and not get up to see the sun another day, but just as Major Whitlessly looked that way, he saw Cher Ami get back up and fly higher and higher out of range of the enemy. He flew a whole 25 miles in 25 minutes, saving more than 200 men by delivering the message. When he finally reached his home coop, the soldier that answered the bell found him lying on his back, with a bullet hole the size of a quarter in his chest and only half of his left leg. He had made it, but could not fly any more. Cher Ami became the hero of the 77th Infantry Division. The medics there worked very hard to get Cher Ami in good shape. When the French soldiers heard of this little pigeon that saved them, they gave him one of their countries highest ranks.

Father of Philosophy

By Brooke Hatala 6R The crowds flash by my eyes. I hear a scream. And then everything goes black. I wake up and white surrounds me. I feel a pain in my back and my ribs. I can feel people bustling around me and then it all comes back. The crowds, the cheering and then blackness. I bolt up and then instantly fall back groaning. Someone comes to my side and starts to stroke my cheek. My eyes slowly open and I see my Mom’s tear stained face looking down on me. The nurse helps me sit up and then I see all my brothers and sisters looking at me from the end of my bed. I had let them all down. You see, if I wouldn’t have gotten hurt all the prize money would go to my Mom and my siblings. That is if I had won the money. I was so close. It was as if me and Storm Fly were flying. And then I had lost control. I start to doze off when I hear someone else’s voice. One that I hadn’t heard in so long. My father. My eyes fly open and I see my Dad’s face staring back at me from the door. He is wearing a suit, as if he is heading to work. “Dad?” I ask, not sure if he is really there. My head starts to swim and I fall back onto the pillow. I can hear Mom and Dad arguing before I fall back into total darkness. When I wake up I am back in my room. All the horse posters of famous barrel racers look down on me. I smile. I try to sit up but the pain forces me back down. “Mom?” I call. I hear little feet start to patter up the stairs and then all of my little brothers and sisters come barreling into my room. “Sis!” “Sissy!” “Wahhhh!” They all start to talk at once, but as soon as Mom walks in the laughter and smiles stop. “How are you feeling?” she questions me. “Sore, but okay,” I reply. She starts to smile but then stops herself. “Your father is here to see you.” A lump forms in my throat as she helps me up and out of my bed. I look down and see that I am still wearing the hospital dressing gown. “Can I change?” I ask her as I stand up. “No,” is her exact answer. I sit back down on the edge of my flower quilted bed. “Mom, I am not going anywhere until you tell me what is going on. All your words have been forced and you haven’t smiled once since the accident.” She swallows hard and tries to get me up again. I let her help me but my eyes drill into the back of her neck. “It’s your father,” she says, “He comes into this town dressed like a city slicker and expects to be treated like royalty. It drives me insane.” Tears come to her eyes as she finishes her sentence. Then she shakes her head and helps me get changed. She helps me down the stairs and into the kitchen. My Dad is sitting around the wood stained table picking at his nails with a knife. Mom sits me down across from him and then leaves. Probably going to wrangle up my brothers and sisters. He looks me up and down and then pushes back the chair and gets up. “Dad. Wait,” but he is already gone. Mom comes back into the kitchen. “Your brothers and sist-,” she stops as she sees that the chair across from me is empty. And then the tears come as I start to tell Mom about Dad. “..and he didn’t even talk to me, just looked me up and down and then left.” Mom helped me up and out of the chair. It was like you could feel the anger radiating off of her. She helped me up the stairs and back into my bed. I could hear her mumble something just before I dozed off. One Month Later… I am racing around the barrels again. The wind is flying through my hair. Me and Storm Fly race toward the gate. The crowd cheers as we beat the remaining record. I fling myself from the saddle and hug Storm Fly. I can see my family cheering in the crowd as I collect the prize money. But Dad isn't here, I think to myself. The smile fades from my face, but then reappears as I see him and few rows in front of Mom. After I collect the money and all my prizes I run to Mom and Dad. I grab them both as they run toward me. Finally, a happy family at last. I hand the check to Mom and then smile to myself. A happy family, echoes in my brain.

By Mckenzie 6M i me ffor th t hhadd bbeen bbugging O that bl One big problem. Wandering down the road, I was thinking, unpresent. Thinking about another problem. A bi quite some time now. I had been dreading and dreaming about it for just as long. Sooner even. It is bound to happen. Nobody likes to be contained, ruled over. Even in a democracy. It barely was a democracy. Not everyone was a citizen. But at this time, the rest of Greece could be gaining ideas. Plotting. Bickering. So naturally, I just had to solve it. Of course I had to solve it. I was to have my thoughts and ideas shared to the Council. But of course, I had kept one thing to myself. But I will not allow anyone else to carry my burden. Not even my family. Nobody. I’ll forever be alone. But I prefer it that way. The hike was long and uneven, but it would never change. Perhaps the new upcoming council would have more justice. Wishful thinking. Everyday contained plenty wishful thinking. It was expected. I had hinted the expanding problem lots, but the council was as ignorant as ever. They wanted to believe that if they paid no attention to it, then it would solve itself. It would never happen. All people could rebel. There could be war. The Council would have it coming. I warned them plenty. Maybe I was the father of philosophy. Maybe I was Socrates. But little do they know what will happen and what will not.

There are tram to go through, for gymnastics, but polines, spring boards, vaults, bala beams, rings, ropes and more. Miss nce ion impossible is really fun, but ther e are rules. If your partner catches you touch a sticker on a ladder or touc hing the metal on the wooden ladder, you would rule. When you jump off something, have to go back.

The Hamburgler By Kaden 6M

Rimbey in the Year 2050 By Cali 4P Rimbey in the year 2050 will be awesome. Every window in every house will automatically shade itself at night. You will be able to snap or clap to turn off or on a light that you are near. In every bathroom there will be a voice command sink, shower and toilet. Beside the toilet there will be a stand that will have a touch screen surface just like an iPad. Living rooms will have a normal couch but a whole wall will be the TV and the remote will be on an iPad, iPod or iPhone. Kitchens will have voice command stoves, ovens, dishwashers, microwaves, fridges and coffee makers. Outside there will be a big deck and a garage on the roof for all of the family’s flying vehicles. Future homes sound awesome. School will also be awesome in 2050. In the schools the teachers will be able to snap or clap to turn off or on any lights. No supplies will be needed because there will be white, electronic desks that four students can sit at. Students’ chairs for school will have wheels and a remote control on the armrest for moving around. Homework will be on an iPad because everyone will have one. Whiteboards will be electronic and you won’t need to write on them with a marker. Children will go to elementary school from kindergarten to grade six like now, and then will have eleven grades in high school. After high school students can either go to university or college or both, depending on what they would like to be. The future will also bring new forms of transportation. Kids will be able to take a flying course when they are nine so they can get a miniature flying car. Families will be able to get the custom number of seats for their vehicles depending on the number of children they have in their family. Large groups will travel in a big flying car or a bus depending on the size of the group. Flying pedal bikes and flying motor bikes will also be an option to drive. Stop lights will float in the air for the flying traffic. In the future, people will have fun in different ways. Huge parks will be next to the schools for recesses just like now, but giant pools will also be connected to schools for recesses. Everyone will have an iPad to either do homework on if you're in school or to just have fun on at any age. Stuffed animal toys will be able to talk to you and answer all your questions. Anyone who wants a pet et could get a mechanical, solar power operated one. Libraries will also be awesome in the year 2050. In libraries there will be a talking, robot librarian. n. Ten thousand or more iPads will line shelves with different books on them and they will be powered with miniature solar panels. In the future I hope these ideas will come true.

The Ottawa Senators signed Andrew Hammond as a free agent goaltender to a two-year entry-level contract on March 20th, 2013. Hammond was recalled by the Ottawa Senators on February 26, 2014 to replace goaltender Craig Anderson who was with his wife for the birth of the couple’s second child. The next day, Andrew, who was backup for Robin Lehner, entered a game against the Detroit Red Wings after Lehner let in six goals. Hammond stopped all eleven shots he faced. Hammond made his first career NHL start against the Montreal Canadiens on February 18, 2015 after Lehner was injured in Ottawa’s previous game. He earned his first NHL victory, stopping 42 shots in a 4-2 victory, and was named the game’s first star. Two games later, he recorded his first NHL shutout as the Senators beat the Anaheim Ducks 3-0. After that day he got his second NHL career victory after a 1-0 win over the L.A. Kings. On March 2, 2015 Hammond was rewarded by getting named NHL’s first star. Hammond’s nickname became the “Hamburglar”. Naturally, Senators fans tossed burgers on the ice after a home victory. Hammond showed his sense of humor by picking up a burger and saying he wouldn’t take a bite because it was too cold! Never wanting the popular Ottawa goalie to be burgerless again, an Ottawa Mcdonalds is giving Andrew something that, in my opinion is better than the Vezina and the Hart combined. Free Fast Food For Life! A few games later, Andrew’s teammate Curtis Lazar picked up a burger and ate as a joke. The media loved this.

Prior to police arriving on scene, a 29-year-old man, a resident of Rimbey, had fled from the residence after he had allegedly assaulted his common law spouse.

Grass clippings could be accepted at recycle station all summer BY TREENA MIELKE

Rimbey residents are still not happy about the change regarding yard waste, but town council appears to be trying to come up with a compromise that will be cost effective and still provide service to town residents. Acting CAO Donna Tona said negotiations are ongoing with the Town of Ponoka to accept the town of Rimbey’s grass clippings for their compost. Tona said this transaction would result in much cheaper hauling costs than hauling the yard waste to Penhold. “If we can come to a satisfactory agreement the bin could stay at the recycle station longer, if not through the entire summer,” she said. Council decided earlier that the grass clippings would no longer be picked up and residents were asked to grasscylce their lawn clippings and to refrain from putting them in th garbage. They were told grass clippings will not be picked up by the contractor nor will they be

accepted at the recycle facility, although tree clippings and dry yard waste can be dropped off there all summer and will be burned in the approved pits. Residents did not buy into the concept readily, and concerns were voiced not only to council, but to each other. Driving to the waste transfer site, being physically able to put the recycle bags in the bin headed the list of concerns. Residents also remain somewhat dubious about composting, noting setting up a compost pile in their yard will attract flies and mice. However, director Rick Schmidt said grasscycling and composting is good for the environment. “It will provide a greener footprint for our community and lessen the carbon imprint,” he said. He also noted residents who take their grass clippings to the recycle station need to be aware that the bin has a door on the back making it relatively easy to dispose of the bags of grass clippings. “You can walk right into it.”

He said if the bin is full and it is impossible to use the back door, residents should ask the recycle attendant to help them with the bags. The recycle facility is open 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Wednesdays and Saturdays. “It is open the same hours as the landfill out at Bluffton,” he said. Schmidt and Tona said the bin at the recycle centre is for residential use only and commercial vendors are to find their own method of disposing of yard waste. A suggestion made by Gayle Rondeel at an open mike session at a previous council meeting to haul the grass clippings out to the airport is not feasible, said Tona. “The airport falls under federal regulations and Transport Canada rules,” she said. Residents who have health, mobility or disability challenges can phone the town to register to have their yard waste picked up during fall and spring cleanup, Tona said. “This service would entitle residents to register

in confidence and the town would provide them with a special tag identifying the fact they have registered to have their yard waste picked up and placed in the bins.” The town will use criteria established by Rimbey FCSS to determine if an individual qualifies for town pick up. Tona said no one has called for the service as of yet. Residents are also being encouraged to help their neighbour if they can’t move their spring yard waste. The recycle facility accepts residential cardboard, plastics, tin and paper products. Clean wood less than six feet in length and one foot in diameter and tagged de-commissioned fridges are also accepted. Tona said building a facility for yard waste would be very cost prohibitive. “We have many others things to catch up on such as repairs to our streets and sidewalks, light poles and the aging water reservoir.”

Ponoka County EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS WEEK MAY 3

TO MAY 9 , 2015 TH

Welcome

Emergency Preparedness Week is a time to bring awareness about the importance of being prepared for an emergency. Ponoka County encourages their residents to take time this week to get prepared! Here are ﬁve things you can do right now: 1. Know the risks – learn about local hazards and plan for those that are more likely to occur. 2. Make a family emergency plan - in case your family may not be together when an emergency happens. 3. Get an emergency kit – plan for at least the first 72 hours of an emergency (non-perishable food, water, medication, warm clothing and comfort items for all family members/pets). Similarly, you should make a ready-to-go kit in case you need to evacuate your home quickly. 4. Talk to your kids - help them understand emergencies and what they can do to prepare.

We are pleased to welcome Tonya Hatala as the new manager at our Rimbey branch. Tonya has been with Servus for nineteen years. She began as a teller in 1996 and has held numerous roles within the company before becoming branch manager. Tonya lives our credit union values and is excited to build long-term relationships with members of the community. Tonya lives just east of Rimbey with her husband and daughters and looks forward to investing in the community where she lives and works. Come by the branch and meet Tonya.

5. Spread the word – encourage your family and friends. Remember, emergencies can happen anytime, anywhere. Experience has shown that individual preparedness goes a long way towards communities being able to cope better – both during and after a major disaster. More information is available at GetPrepared.ca.

Students honour veterans by taking care of graves Dear Editor, The three of us wrote a letter to the town council in November of last year asking if we could honor the veterans by taking care of their graves. We thought that by placing poppies and taking extra care of the graves in the Rimbey area we would honour the veterans. We were elated when

we received a reply back from the town a few months later stating that the town council wanted us to present our idea at their council meeting. We started work on our presentation right away. It was very exciting! On meeting night we were shaking really badly. We were asked to stand and present our speech. We were nervous and as slow-

ly as possible, we raced through our speech. When we were done we were met with smiles and agreement. Everyone liked the idea! We sighed with relief…. We did it! It was a really nervewracking experience, but we really are glad we had this opportunity to honour our veterans. We are glad to be part of this community where honoring veterans is possible.

Parker is in Nepal as a member of Canadian Medical Assistance Teams (CMAT), a Canadian charity that provides humanitarian relief. HSAAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s board of directors approved a donation of $5,000 to CMAT and a

further $5,000 to Oxfam Canada from its Humanitarian Fund. Parker and his wife, Beverly, a member of the United Nurses of Alberta (UNA), previously served with CMAT helping victims of Typhoon Haiyan in the Philippines in 2013, and in Pakistan, after the devastating floods of 2010. HSAA also donated $10,000 to CMAT to coincide with Parkerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mission in the Philippines. At that time, he said: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m grateful to be part of a union that recognizes the need to help out people even

Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m also grateful to my employer, Alberta Health Services (AHS) for making it possible for me to go. Our members do great work saving lives in Alberta every day. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s only natural that we want to help save lives overseas when disaster strikes.â&#x20AC;? The earthquake in Nepal has claimed nearly 6,000 lives.

Rimbey Expo showcase

Jim Anderson stands with this real looking cow at the Rimbey Expo. The mechanical cow demonsrated a frost free method of the animals drinking water. Jenny Stout, teacher at Fingerprints Playschool at Rimbey Christian School chats with Taryn Shaw, eight, and her five-year-old brother Hunter at Rimbey Expo last weekend.

Education week recognized in Alberta

Helen Coers and Eileen Banks from Rimbey Community Wellness Group are in charge of a booth at the Rimbey Expo. Treena Mielke Photos

The first Alberta School Week (Education Week) was held December 2 to 8, 1928. It was initiated by the Alberta Teachers’ Alliance (later to become the Alberta Teachers’ Association) “for the purposes of interesting parents and others in the many problems which confront educationalists. [It was] the first definite attempt on the part of teachers to explain the problems, the difficulties and the triumphs of the school,” reported the ATA Magazine in January 1929. A number of enthusiastic editorials appeared in newspapers throughout Alberta, including this excerpt from the Calgary paper: “It is a praiseworthy characteristic of the profession of education

that the school teacher evinces no desire to keep the workings of his craft a secret. He not only invites the public, particularly parents, to inspect the factory but to learn the whole trade. It was such a spirit that motivated the institution of Alberta School Week which commences tomorrow and in which have been asked to cooperate the church, parent-teachers’ associations, women’s organizations, school boards, local and provincial departments of education, political organizations both party and non-party, the service clubs, boards of trade, chambers of commerce—Could the appeal have been more broadcast?” (Calgary Albertan,December 1, 1928)
