RIMBEY REVIEW 3

Bentley schools do well in Fraser Institute report BY TREENA MIELKE The principal of Bentley Schools, Lane Moore, was pleased to learn his schools have done well in the Fraser Institute’s current report. “All I have to say is Bentley school rocks,” said Moore, in an email to his teachers. “Great job, everyone.” Bentley elementary school’s rating of 8.0 for the 2014/15-year ranked the school 92nd out of 812 schools in the province. It also gave them the top ranking of elementary schools in Wolf Creek, according to the Fraser Institute report. Crestomere school received a 7.8, Alix (Mirror and Alix Central) came in at 6.7, Rimbey elementary followed at 5.7, Terrace Ridge in Lacombe came in at 5.5, Ponoka elementary had a ranking of 4.1 and Eckville elementary had a ranking of 3.4. Moore said the percentage of Grade 6 students not meeting provincial standards in Bentley elementary school has decreased, which he believes has contributed to the overall ranking. “We also have more interventions in place and our staff has put in a lot of hard work.” In September of last year, Bentley’s school population had dropped slightly to 332, but 55 students registered in the pre kindergarten program, far

exceeding the estimated number of 41. The school has a hockey academy, which is popular with the students, and also offers fine arts, foods, woodworking, golf, guitar, dance and musical theatre. A few years ago the school adopted a self directed learning approach to teaching students. Information from the Fraser Institute showed the rating for Bentley high school for 2011/12 in a favorable light, ranking them 71 out of 279 school with a 7.1 mark, followed by Rimbey with a 6.3, Lacombe, with a 6.0, Ponoka with a 5.7 and Eckville with a 5.5. However, the rating for the last five years shows Rimbey high school leading the division with a 6.8, followed by Lacombe with a 6.3 rating. Eckville high school has a 6.1 grade, Bentley has been given a 6, and Ponoka trails with a 5.7. Rimbey high school principal Tim Lekas and Rimbey elementary prin-

cipal Jodi Bramfield said the Fraser Institute report is not used as a measure of success at their schools. “We have other measures that we use to evaluate the effectiveness of our school and its programs,” said Lekas. The report card on Alberta’s elementary schools 2016 ranks 812 public, separate, francophone, private and charter schools based on seven academic indicators derived from province wide test results. “Our report card is the only objective, reliable tool that parents have to compare the academic performance of their child’s school over time and to that of other schools in their community,” said Peter Cowley, Fraser Institute director of school performance studies. According to the report six of the ten fastest improving schools are in Edmonton. For detailed results of all 812 schools, go to www. compareschoolrankings.org

On The Other Side The sun sparkled through my living room window as I passed my husband another helping of Shepherd’s pie, which was actually quite a delicious leftover surprise, if I do say so myself. I also offered him more freshly steamed broccoli. He refused. “No dessert, if you don’t eat your vegetables,” I chided gently.

He smiled and I smiled and, suddenly it seemed our words took on a life of their own, drifting out of the kitchen window to another time and another place. We were kids again, lilac trees were heavy with purple blossoms and backyard gardens were just peeking their little green heads up. “My mom had a huge garden,” he recalled, leaning back in his chair, comfortable, relaxed, sated, no doubt, by my delicious Shepherd’s pie. “She grew all kinds of vegetables. It covered half our back yard.” I closed my eyes and tried to visualize half a back yard filled with vegetables. “Wow,” I said. “It never had a weed in it, her garden,” he said rather proudly. “Did you help weed?” I asked.

“No,” he said. “That’s not very nice,” I thought, visualizing this poor woman weeding, weeding, weeding, while her son stood by idly. “Paper route,” I thought, trying to be more charitable. “He was probably on his paper route or hauling water for the neighbour.” I think he used to do that. I spent a few more minutes visualizing such an amazing garden, my husband’s mom rising to great heights of saintliness in my mind. The oven timer rang, interrupting my visualization and I came quickly back to the present and my own fragrant kitchen. I pulled a rhubarb cake out of the rack; carefully slicing it up, and spooning vanilla ice cream over the hot pieces, watching the ice cream melt into a gooey pile of sweet delight. “We never had much of

a garden,” I said. “I think we used the garden spot in our back yard for a running broad jump pit.” I felt kind of embarrassed mentioning such an unconventional use for a garden spot, but then I remembered our rhubarb patch. “It was the best in town,” I said proudly. And I remember how my brother and I used to steal peas from the neighbour’s garden, except I think the neighbour actually knew, so it wasn’t really stealing. Regardless, stolen peas taste the best as far as I’m concerned, even though Mark Twain insisted it was stolen watermelon. It’s all relative, I guess. And I remember the sweet taste of new potatoes, although I have no idea from whose garden they came from before they ended up on my plate. I savour the memories.

A six-year-old kid, new potatoes, stolen peas and waking up every morning to the amazing wonder of spring. I put the dishes in the dishwasher and go out to plant my very own miniature garden. It is so small. When I told a friend about it, he said I should be able to keep it pristine and completely weed free as it was no bigger than a postage stamp. I laughed. But then I remembered my husband’s mom and how she apparently planted half her back yard into garden and kept it completely weed free. And I’m filled with new respect not only for my husband’s mom, but for gardeners everywhere. And I’m buoyed by the words ‘you reap what you sow.’ Ahhh! We shall see, we shall see!

Pizza delivery man and columnist’s great-great grandfather share a common thread

Jonah Kondro

Production: Red Deer, Alberta Published every Tuesday by PNG Prairie Newspaper Group in community with: President: Mary Kemmis

My great-great grandfather fought in the First World War for the British. He was captured on the Western Front when the German’s began their “Last Gamble” in March 1918. Things started getting pretty crazy; and when the Allies started their “Hundred Days Offensive”

my grandfather escaped captivity. The bullets, bombs, and grenades were becoming less of a threat to life in the final months of the war. Hunger was a serious problem and not just for escaped POWs like my distant relative. Many soldiers, prisoners, and civilians on every side and from every belligerent country were slowing starving to death. An individual was lucky if a slice of bread came his or her way. My grandfather found a little respite in Belgium and lived off beets (when he could find them). Moreover, boiled dandelions were his primary source of nutrition as the First World War came to its end. These days my yard is filled with dandelions.

When I became a homeowner a few years ago I gave a lot of thought to how I would kill off all the weeds and little thought of the war torn fields in Europe at the beginning of the twentieth century. I stopped buying bottled poison and stop to think to myself before I kick the yellow head off one of the weeds. My grandfather’s survival was dependant on a daily dose of boiled dandelions almost a hundred years ago. One could argue that if my relative died of fatigue and hunger I wouldn’t be around today. My grandfather immigrated to Canada shortly after the war. I think a lot of Canadians can share similar stories of their family’s past. Some days I think

being a Canadian simply means that your family survived—something horrible. I wanted to shut off my brain from the spring history class I’m taking. Over the long-weekend I headed down to Calgary to visit some friends. We were hanging out in the garage and got hungry. My buddy ordered a pizza. When it arrived my buddy was kind enough to pay. And I got talking with the deliveryman. I could tell he wasn’t from Canada: his English wasn’t that great. He looked middle-aged and dressed nicer delivering pizzas than I do when I attend weddings. I asked him how long he had been in Canada. He and his family had been living

in the country for a year now. I asked him where he was from. He answered simply: Syria. The brief conversation instantly made me think of my own relatives’ past. The pizza delivery guy and my family share a common theme: leaving a war torn part of the world to come to Canada. It doesn’t matter if you Google image search “Trenches 1916” or “Syria 2016.” War is war and hunger is hunger. I thoroughly thanked the Syrian gentleman for delivery a pizza, welcomed him to our country, and gave him a hug. I hope his family makes a good life for themselves, like my great-great grandfather did when he left the uncertainly to start a new life in Canada.

RIMBEY REVIEW 5

Rimbey RCMP busy BY CONST. CARMAN DUTZ Rimbey RCMP were busy over the May long weekend. Mother nature’s assistance was felt by members who noticed a marked decrease in the number of people enjoying the lakes, trails and campgrounds. They also felt the marked decrease in the temperature as they conducted a checkstop on Friday night west of Rimbey. The number of vehicles checked by the RCMP and Commercial Vehicle Enforcement at the checkstop was less than previous years. However, they issued an alcohol related roadside suspension, seized drugs, executed a warrant, charged an individual for driving while disqualified, and issued tickets for offences under the Traffic Safety Act and the Gaming and Liquor Act. The Rimbey RCMP investigated 28 calls for service over the weekend including reports of stolen vehicles, abandoned vehicles, motor vehicle collisions, a bar fight, impaired driving, and failure to comply with release conditions. Vehicles are easy targets for criminals looking for an easy get-away, cash or personal information. Always lock your vehicle doors. Never leave valuables or keys in your vehicle. If you see someone acting suspiciously around vehicles or other property, call the RCMP at 403-843-2224 or 403-843-2223, Call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477, or #8477 on Telus Mobility, or *8477 on Rogers AT&T. Following the long weekend, on May 25 between 5 and 6 p.m. on Range Road 31 south of Hwy 53 a 35 year old female driver travelling north lost control of her vehicle, going off the road. The driver was ejected from the vehicle and pinned underneath. She was taken to hospital via ground ambulance with undetermined injuries. RCMP collision reconstructionist was called out from Red Deer and examined the scene. The investigation is ongoing.

4-H show and sale success BY TERI ORMBERG The Rimbey, Bluffton, and Winfield Clubs held their club and interclub show which culminated in the sale at 7 p.m. the evening of Monday, May 16. Jones Vold Jones Auction Company conducted the sale with volunteer auctioneer Dean Edge. On the Sunday afternoon of May 15 the clubs had their individual club achievement day at the Agrim Centre. The judges for the day were Blake Morton and Darcy Olesky with help from Alisha Minchau. Former Rimbey club member Cassidy Valstar was announcer for the day. Ring master was former Rimbey member Nicole Waldron and former Bluffton member Sylvia VonGunten. Rimbey Rodeo Queen, Kayla Bueck presented the ribbons on both Sunday and Monday. Rodeo Princess, Lindsey , helped on Monday afternoon. Each individual club participated in confirmation and grooming and showmanship classes with their steers, heifers, and cow/calf pairs. Jordyn Valstar, Carter Eadie and Nicole Groeneveld lead the singing of O’Canada and Melissa Waldron, Leah Trenson and Lane Magnuson lead the 4-H pledge. For interclub judging of finished steers Jessica Sperber gave a presentation as well as judging them, with the members giving their written placings and reasons to be marked. The pen of three steers and pen of three heifers as well interclub Breeder’s Group was also held on the Sunday. The rest of the interclub portion of the show was held on Monday. Riley and Toby Noble from Lloydminister were our showmanship and grooming judge for the Monday morning classes. Jim Pulyk was the confirmation judge. Jacob Parker, former member of the Winfield club and Megan Valstar former member of the Rimbey Club, handled the ring master duties with former Winfield member, Kayla Leeder, announcing the classes and winners. Rose Grutterink and Teri Ormberg helped with the clerking duties for both days. Jenna Simpson, Steven Jaffray and Hanna Falt lead the singing of O’Canada and Miranda Wirch, Cassandra Teneycke and Zach Kendrew lead the 4H pledge. In the morning was the team grooming competition where 10 teams of two junior and intermediate members and seven teams of senior members had 15 minutes to prepare a member’s calf for the ring. . During the team grooming marketing classes were held. Approx. 12 juniors prepared a poster that could have been used for advertising this year’s show and sale. The marketing question for the intermediates was “What does 4-H mean to me” judged by Michelle VonGunten. For seniors it was: “Antibiotics and growth hormones – why or why not” which was judged by Miles Crandall. Approx. 10 intermediates and 12 seniors participated. The rest of the morning was the showmanship and grooming classes for juniors, intermediates and seniors. At the end of the morning show were the four eager “Cleaver Kids” from the Winfield and Bluffton clubs who showed their adorable 2016 baby calves. These are 6-8 year-olds beginning their 4-H membership by participating at club events to learn the basics of 4-H. In the evening they were presented with hoodies supplied by Genetic Ventures. The carcass group of steers with 20 members with two of them from Ponoka participating were judged on May 3 at the Anchor D Ranch and then graded and marked at Family Meats in Ponoka meats which the members viewed on May 11. Results were announced. Cow/calf pairs were first in the ring in the afternoon with all three clubs showing together. Heifer classes followed. The class was determined on the basis of their date of birth. The steers were divided into 6 classes of 9 by weight with the top 2 steers from each class going into the championship class. Market steers weighed from 1135 to 1596 pounds. It was a great winter for the calves and members. Our show and sale would not be possible without the help of the following major sponsors: Country Junction continued on page 7

Bentley students help out with fundraisers BY TREENA MIELKE Bentley school students have been busy helping out their community and others who have suffered misfortune. During the first week of May, Grade 4 students held a coin challenge raising $4,500. The Grade 8 class raised $700, which was the highest amount raised. Money went to the Red Cross to help the victims of the Fort McMurray fires and to the Curtis Smith fund to help a Bentley area family who had lost their home in a fire. Students also raised funds through a fashion show held May 13. The fashion show was sold out and funds will go to the Red Cross for assistance to Fort McMurray.

Students help out: Rimbey Junior Senior High School students gave back to the community with a week-long food bank drive ending the week with a barbecue. A total of $600 was raised for the food bank by the students who also donated 544 pounds of food. Photo submitted

Cleaver kids show calves continued from page 6 Wetaskiwin, MNP LLP, Rimbey Coop, Anchor D Ranch, Diamond C Ranch Limousin, Servus Credit Union, Legacy Ford and Murphy’s Feedlot. Before the sale all interclub awards were given out to the club members and the “Cleaver Kids” showed their calves.

TUESDAY, MAY 31, 2016

Rimbey aquatic centre open and ready for business for season BY TREENA MIELKE The long weekend in May was a chilly one and several activities, including the long anticipated opening of

the Rimbey Aquatic Centre were delayed. “With the snow, it didn’t seem the best option,” said community services director Cindy Bowie.

However, the centre is up and running now, with lifeguards all in place and a schedule for pool hours now effective. Kaylin Ackerman will take

over as pool manager this year. It is Ackerman’s third summer at the pool. Shift supervisors are Anita Balosh and Brant Siebel and seven lifeguards have been hired to be on duty. Junior lifeguards are Kate Parker, Nick Green, Austin Nagy, Javier Seidel and Mitchell Giebelhaus. Senior lifeguards are Kaiden Eadie and Breanna Nagy. The schedule in July and August includes Red Cross swimming lessons from 9 a.m. to noon, Monday to Friday. Parent and tot lane

swims run from noon to 1:30 p.m. daily. Lane swims are also held from 6 to 7 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays and from 8 to 9 p.m. Monday to Friday. Public swims runs every day beginning at 1:30. The swim ends at 6 p.m. on the weekends and 8 p.m. during the week. The aquatic centre includes a water slide, a Junior Olympic five-lane outdoor pool, two hot tubs, a spray park and a 4,600 square-foot office and change rooms.

The future of the splash park, which is not open, remains undecided and Bowie said she plans to bring the matter to council at its next meeting. Junior lifeguard training club is held Tuesday and Thursday mornings. Adult swimming lessons may be held depending on the interest.

For the last three years Naomi Shore and Lindsay Pratt – aka Twin Peaks - have sung their way across Canada as they build a dedicated following of roots music fans. The duo combines unique talents in piano, guitar, ukulele with terrific pipes and lovely harmonies. As a youngster Naomi completed Grade 9 Royal Conservatory classical. Fourteen years later she has established herself as a well-rounded pianist, vocalist and piano teacher. Lindsay was a student at Selkirk College in Nelson, B.C. where she attended the Contemporary Music and Technology program. Lindsay tends to be the wordsmith, writing songs ranging from wistful to rowdy, of longing, lustiness, and love of life, especially how it plays out in small towns. Naomi pins down the musical side and adds humour and vivaciousness to the live performances. The performers, both from BC’s Peace region, were well known locally around Fort St. John. Lately though

they’ve received a great deal more exposure for their performances in various competitions both regionally and nationally. In 2012 they made the top ten for CBC Radio 3’s contest Tracks on Tracks, and in 2014 the group rose to the national finals in the CBC Searchlight contest. They’ve taken home a Vancouver Island Music Award for BC Artist of the Year. In 2013 the self-titled EP was nominated for a Western Canadian Music Awards for Roots Duo/Group Recording of the Year and last year the duo’s full length album, Trouble, won the WCMA for Roots Duo/Group Recording of the Year! Building on their successes, they’ve been touring extensively, playing everywhere from charming, intimate venues to large outdoor festivals. ‘Eclectic’, ‘clever’, ‘creative’, ‘totally infectious’, ‘endearing’ and ‘dynamic’ – all words used to describe Twin Peak’s live show. Check them out for yourself at the Beatty House on Monday, June 6 at 7:30 pm. Tickets are available from Stationery Stories and Sounds.

RIMBEY REVIEW 11

Bentley library fundraiser huge success BY JUNE NORVILA Organizers of the 2016 Bentley municipal library major fundraiser were concerned about the slow sales of tickets, but in the last week before the scheduled event on April 23 over 140 of the 150 tickets printed were gone. Sponsors, donors, volunteers, and those purchasing tickets came through. Doors to the Blindman Valley Ag centre opened early. People had time to look over the variety of approximately fifty numerous donations to the silent auction that were set up in the back of the hall. A stay at Banff, and tickets to the Carol Burnett show in Edmonton in June were the highest paid for articles. Other items included a 30-second grocery shopping spree, plants, gift baskets, jewelry, pillows, small quilts, artwork, a homemade small table, quilted place mats, golfing attire and rounds of golf, decorative signs, adult coloring books, yard decorations, Cutco knives, sandals, quilting sets, certificates at different businesses, a small charcoal barbecue, treats for your dog and even a toy tractor and duffle bags. There were sponsors from Edmonton, Vermillion, Red Deer, Lacombe, Sylvan Lake, Gull Lake, Blackfalds, Bentley, and businesses in Lacombe County. There were too many cash sponsors as well to mention them all here. Aspen Greenhouses supplied the table centrepieces that were sold off. The Bentley Ag Society donated the use of the space. There was no shortage of volunteers right from greeting at the door and selling 50/50 and liquor tickets, to the staffing of the bar by Servus Credit Union volunteers, or people looking after the bidding on the auction items. Funhouse Dance Band took to the stage for the evening and had people dancing. There were door prize draws throughout the evening. A midnight lunch, catered by Bob Ronnie Catering, with more food than one could imagine was once again a highlight. An informative power point, including pictures of local people at library events, was playing by the auction items. Winner of the 50/50 draw was Ken Gillard who donated the money back to the library. “We achieved our fundraising goals,” library manager Suzanne Moore stated, “and will use the funds for various programs (and costs to run the library) throughout the year.” “We are immensely grateful to the community for their ongoing support. No words can express our appreciation.” The event was organized and run by the committed volunteers of the Bentley Library Board and the Bentley Library Society, with help from many others. On the library board are chair Dr. Sandy Jameson, vice chair Kim Schmidt, treasurer Maureen Rue, town council representative Cora Knutson, and board members Iola Bartja, Pat Morrow and Joan Dickau. Such an event couldn’t be hosted without the ongoing support of Library Society members, the library staff Vera Boettger, Tammy Izqueirdo, Jolene Naismith, and Suzanne Moore, and Library Board members, including Sandra Smyth and Jean Oram who just resigned. The Bentley Farmer’s Market continues to offer additional annual financial support to the library. Bentley library regular hours are 10:00 a.m. - 5:30 p.m. on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays, noon - 7:30 p.m. on Thursdays, from 11:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m. on Saturdays, and closed on holidays.

ANDERSON George Charles

April 23, 1955 - May 22, 2016

With deep sadness our family announces the passing of George (Geo, Dad, Grumpa) Anderson. George passed peacefully the morning of May 22, 2016 in the Rimbey Hospital with family in hand. George was born in Drumheller Alberta to Florence and Andy Anderson. In 1956 Flo and Andy returned to Rimbey to take over the family farm. There they raised George and his three little sisters; Kathy, Cheryl, and Carol. In 1975 George married his high school sweetheart Carrie Freeman and together had two children; Jesse and Jacy. In 1988 George found true love with Ronda Salomons and they married in 1989. George and Ronda had four daughters; Rashel, Raelyn, Krista and Niki. In 1995 George and Ronda purchased the Anderson farm east of Rimbey. For numerous years they raised kids, cattle, and cats on their own little slice of heaven. George’s natural talent for mechanics led him to purchase his own small engine shop which he called Anderson’s Service. For 32 years Dad put in countless hours providing unparalleled service to his community. After hours he, Ronda and his girls enjoyed spending time on endless projects around the farm. George wasn’t only mechanical, but fiercely competitive. He loved racing snow mobiles, playing slo pitch, and always instigated (and won) a game or bet of some sort. We will lovingly remember George for his kind heart, his love of working and playing hard, killer dance moves and the joy he found in the simple things in life. George will be lovingly remembered by his wife of 27 years, Ronda Anderson, his beloved children Jacy (Tom), Raelyn, Krista, and Niki, three adoring grandchildren, Magnuss, Eli, and Victoria. He will be fondly remembered by his sisters Carol, Morgan (Brendan), brother Chris (Joy), his father-in-law John (Irene) as well as many nieces, nephews and long time friends. George was predeceased by his parents Florence and Andy Anderson, his sisters Kathy Maser (Barry), Cheryl Langmuir (Bob), his beloved son Jesse and adored daughter Rashel. Funeral Services will be held on Monday, May 30 2016 2:00 p.m. at the Peter Lougheed Community Centre with Reverend Deborah Laing officiating. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Kids In Sports c/o Janet Stout, Box 655, Rimbey AB, T0C 2J0. Expressions of sympathy can be made by visiting www.wilsonsfuneralchapel.ca.

HERCHAK, Linda Rose (nee Schrader) February 26, 1920 May 17, 2016 Linda passed away peacefully on Tuesday, May 17, 2016 at Mayfair Care Centre in Calgary. She was born on February 26, 1920 in Rimbey, Alberta, to Christina and Gottfried (Fred) Schrader. Linda was the youngest child, and was predeceased by her three sisters and three brothers with whom she enjoyed close relationships. When she was eight years old, her family moved to Medicine Hat, then to Calgary when she was 15. Being raised as a child of pioneering parents, and experiencing the realities of the 1930’s shaped Linda’s resilient approach to life. She remained petite and lean, yet tough. She could be at her best in adverse conditions; for example, when she was left alone in mid-life and through three surgeries in her 80’s. Linda volunteered at the CR Unit Smoke and Gift shop of the General Hospital for 20 years, and used this as her resume builder for her first paying job at the Palliser Hotel Smoke Shop. In 1983 she married the love of her life, Matthew Herchak and together they had 10 wonderful years before Matthew passed away. She made friends easily in many situations, such as riding on the same daily Calgary bus and as a member of Central United Church. She kept these friends close throughout her life with much visiting and lively correspondence; this included in later years an amicable exchange of notes and cards with her first husband, Walter Siewert. Her memory was sharp into her final days when she could recall and comment on friends who had written in her autograph books of 1931 and 1933. Linda is survived by one daughter Lynn Marie (Michael Clark); one grandson William James Clark; and a number of nephews and nieces. The family would like to extend heartfelt a thanks to Dr. Graham Hunter, nurses Roxanne and Tee, and other exceptional staff at Mayfair Care Centre. Also loving thanks to Wilma Clark, church visitor and friend. A Graveside Service was held at Rocky View Garden of Peace Cemetery on Friday, June 3, 2016 at 2:00 p.m. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Mayfair Care Centre, (8240 Collicutt Street SW, Calgary, AB T2V 2X1).
