Local PC Association holds annual meeting in Lamont Michelle Pinon Editor
Candace Bryks openly admitted, “I’m one of those mad Albertans.” Bryks was one of several attendees at the Fort Saskatchewan-Vegreville PC Constituency

The photo booth at the Fort Saskatchewan-Vegreville PC Constituency Associationʼs annual general meeting in Lamont on Saturday, April 9 was a popular place to be with attendees. Pictured from left to right are: Candace Bryks, daughter Tessa, three-and-ahalf-years-old, Baba Linda Nemirsky, and one-andhalf-year-old Theo pose in the Karma Photo Booth.
Association’s annual general meeting to voice their opinions to local party representatives. Bryks said she found the connection between the PC’s and industry to be disappointing, and that no matter what the industry, the perception is they were in bed together, particularly when it came to environmental issues. Bryks also voiced her concern about declining number of rural youth attending post secondary education. She was commended for coming to the meeting and stating her comments and concerns by panel members during the general discussion portion of the meeting. The panelist included: PC Interim Leader and MLA for Calgary-Hays Ric McIver, former Fort Saskatchewan-Vegreville MLA Jacquie Fenske, PC Vice President of Communications Catherine Keill, and PC youth member and volunteer Kevin Ottewell. “It’s been quite a year since May 5, but we’ve come a long way,” said McIver. “We are making progress, and driving towards policies that will make Alberta better.” Mica also thanked attendees for supporting the party. Fenske asked attendees not to sugar coat their comments, and bring forth their concerns as well as their suggestions. There has been a lot of talk about uniting the right, and the PC’s joining the Wildrose, but that is just one idea being bandied about. Fenske said they have to come up with a solution for everyone. “It’s about coming up with the best balance. Personally I’m not
attached to the name…What’s important are the policies and what we stand for.” Fenske went on to say, “We’re all one voice, and we’re all equal. That’s part of living in a democracy.” Party members will also have a chance to voice their opinions and concerns when they next meet in Red Deer on Saturday, May 7 for the PC Association of Alberta’s Annual General Meeting. Even though the next election will probably be held three years from now, or 1,022 days, Fenske said they had better have their running shoes on well before that. Another topic of conversation that was discussed was the PC Engagement Committee. Keill said 35 sessions were held throughout Alberta with 2,200 members responding to their survey, and many one on one interviews with candidates to hear their views first hand. “It will culminate in a report in May at our AGM. Keill said the general sentiment is that members are committed to rebuilding the party as long as they stick to their principles. She said they got lost during the election campaign, and voters didn’t trust their decisions. “It was a very important lesson. Going forward we will have to operate differently.” As to what will happen next for the party, Keill said that, “If we can’t get our legs back out from under us, then we’ll have to look at other options.” Those options will be discussed at the PC Association of Alberta’s annual general meeting in Red Deer in about three weeks time.
Lamont residents win $5,000 through local contest Michelle Pinon Editor
The Lamont couple who had their vehicle stolen from their driveway during the recent robbery to the Servus Credit Union have turned bad fortune into good fortune. Gerald Fisher and Angeline Christenhusz went in to buy a new truck at Denham Dodge in Fort Saskatchewan to replace their Ram 1500 that was totalled in the robbery. They purchased
a 2016 model on March 15 from Sales Consultant Barry Napora. But little did they know they would wind up being the lucky winners of the dealership’s $5,000 Guaranteed Giveaway Contest. “They are our first lucky winners,” stated Napora last Tuesday, April 5, when the couple came in to claim their prize. “I’ll have to buy a truck off them more often,” said Fisher with a broad grin. “It doesn’t happen every day,”
countered Napora. “He didn’t believe me when I told him,” said Christenhusz. “He didn’t believe me either when I told him,” added General Sales Manager Jessie Denham. As to how the couple are planning on spending their lucky windfall, Fisher said he’ll use the winnings to pay bills. So even when you’re a little down on your luck, there is always the chance that your luck could be turned around, just like in this case.

Andrew Foods to hit the auction block this Saturday Michelle Pinon Editor
Bidding on the sale of Andrew Foods is expected to start at 12 Noon this Saturday, April 16. Store owner Marty Derouin said Ed Prodaniuk Auctions will be conducting the unreserved auction on site, and he is hoping to sell it as a parcel, i.e. building, inventory and equipment. “I hope it goes to someone local,” added Derouin. Doreen, who owns several successful businesses in the region, said the store has a lot of potential, especially for a couple or family who want to set up shop in the community. “When I bought it from Co-op I felt opportunity was there.” That is why, said Derouin, he wanted to re-organize the business and resell it within six months. “I took possession in October, and I
thought I had a deal in January.” While his plan is slightly behind schedule, Derouin is confident the property will sell during the auction as there also has been other parties who’ve expressed an interest in purchasing the property recently, as well as favourable appraisals by assessors. “The opportunity is there if someone wants to step up to the plate,” pointed out Derouin. He believes opportunities, any opportunities that come along in life, are all about what you make of them. Tammy Pickett, owner of the Andrew Hotel, which is located beside Andrew Foods, said if the community is left without a grocery store it will negatively affect senior citizens and shutins. She added that the Village of Andrew will also be much less appealing for people looking to move into the communi-

ty. She expects housing values to depreciate if no buyers come forward. “Andrew is a little community that can be thriving, but it isn’t.” Pickett believes you have to look globally, and she also hopes the property will be purchased as a grocery store. Donna Fesyk, (nee McIntyre), who has operated Nearly New Treasures on main street for the past three years, is terrified to think what will happen if the grocery store is not sold. “I fear our town will die out.” She has seen a big difference in the amount of people coming to shop at Andrew Foods in the last six months. She fears that if there is no grocery store in town, residents, commuters, and visitors will bypass the town, and head to the larger centres of Vegreville and Fort Saskatchewan for services, not just groceries.

Lamont Ag. Society ready to open the chutes on 23rd annual Bull-A-Rama Supreme Michelle Pinon Editor
Staying positive is one of the things Rebecca Joseph does naturally. This year’s Bull-A-Rama Supreme committee chair, is confident everything will come together for the event that will be held at the Lamont Ag. Society’s new grounds in less than two weeks time. Joseph has many fond memories of Bull-A-Rama, having attended 20 of them altogether. This year will be particularly memorable, not just for Joseph, but other members of the Lamont Ag. Society, and the Schinkinger family, as it will be the first time the event has been held at their outdoor venue just southwest of Lamont. Said to be one of the oldest bullring events in Alberta, the Lamont Ag. Society has previously hosted 22 consecutive Bull-A-Rama’s in the past. Well over 150 volunteers will be needed the day of the event, April 23, and she says committee members have been working steady since last fall to make plans and get everything lined up for another successful event. “I’ve been talking to stock contractors and cowboys,” said Joseph, as there is expected to be a full slate of cowboys, 30 in total, riding that evening under the lights.“ The event is sanctioned through the Bull Riders of Canada, and Joseph said they will be welcoming back well known and well respected stock contractor Trach Rodeo.
But like any other community event, the ag. society is counting on the support of local residents to make it successful once again. Joseph says the Lamont Bull-A-Rama is like a homecoming for a lot of people, including many of her friends, who make returning to the community and supporting the event a priority. “It, (Bull-A-Rama) brings so many people together.” The event also allows the Lamont Ag. Society to give back to the community through donations and scholarships to local non-profit MICHELLE PINON PHOTOS organizations like themRebecca Joseph, Chair of the Lamont Bull-A-Rama committee is excited about selves, as well as local hosting the event for the first time ever at the organizationʼs ag. grounds near students through scholarLamont on Saturday, April 23. ships.

Opinion At the heart of the matter Admittedly, I don’t take too much of an interest in hockey these days, but I just had to watch the farewell ceremony for Rexall Place on Wednesday evening. I still call it the Coliseum, and I have many fond memories of attending rodeos, concerts, ice shows, Edmonton Rush games, as well as some Edmonton Oilers and Edmonton Oil Kings games. Since I was dating my significant other during the Oiler glory days of old, I do remember watching many hockey games. The players were bold, brazen, and blazingly fast. Even though Wayne Gretzky was the undeniable star, he was always generous with his teammates, who were also inspiring to me. It was exciting to get caught up in the action as well as the common hope and dream of the Oilers who won several consecutive Stanley Cups. I guess when you come right down to it, it was the heart and character of those players that I admired most. So I guess those inspiring role models were the reason why I was rivetted to the TV Wednesday night, hanging on the players every word. Even though I don’t watch Oilers games regularly now, I boldly stated the other day that what I thought was missing from the present day Oilers was heart. My philosophy is that you give it your all, day in day out, game in and game out. While I wasn’t even a collegiate athlete, I did play a lot of different sports growing up. I always gave 110 per cent no matter what. In my mind, settling for less would be doing myself and the team, (whichever one it was), a grave disservice. Now there’s no disbuting that these professional athletes are well paid, and if they can’t find the motivation within themselves to show up game time, the floaters and the slackers should at least be benched, even if that means substituting for players on their farm team for the one’s in the regular lineup. If you don’t have pride in yourself, or in this case, your skills and abilities, then maybe you should re-evaluate your own motivations. Back in the day, you played for pride, you played for your team, and most of all you played for the love of sport. Passion is what is missing from this hockey team, but I hope like all Oiler fans that a line-up change will take place, and that with the change in venue,will produce many memorable heart worthy performances next season by the players and in the seasons to come. So go ahead, make us proud once again, and Go Oilers Go! Michelle Pinon
From Where I Sit:Great Attributes
By Hazel Anaka When you look around your home or apartment do you like what you see? For this exercise let’s assume we all live where our circumstances and current means dictate. I might want a brand new two thousand square foot house closer to services and amenities. But that just isn’t possible as long as we’re committed to farming land we own. It is what it is, baby. You might want to live in a thirty second-floor condo in downtown Edmonton but for now you live in the basement
of a three-storey walkup. It is what it is. At least for now. Despite the chasm between what we want and what we have, for now we are where we are. Cultivating an attitude of gratitude for what is, is always a good idea. Taking concrete steps in a plan to move on up or downsize or whatever is also prudent. The practice of mindfulness urges us to fully and completely live in the now. Let’s do it. Décor magazines are full of low and no cost ideas for refreshing, recycling, upcycling, and repurposing household objects. It costs absolutely nothing to ‘shop your home.’ To look at what you already own and use it in a new location or new way. Use the storage basket from your bedroom as a catch-all for hair products in the
bathroom. Re-style your bookcases by stacking some of your books horizontally, some vertically. Create visual interest by interspersing vases, collectibles, and art. Aim for continuity of colour or shape. Avoid the thrift shop look of an overcrowded mishmash. If you ache to be a minimalist you will purge your belongings. If you buy into the belief system of Marie Kondo (the life-changing magic of tidying up) you will touch each object and ask yourself if it brings you joy as you decide what makes the cut and what is gone. If, like me, you have a large collection of vases and art, rotate your inventory, displaying some, storing others. Hang a tapestry or rug on your wall as art. Mark the changing seasons by swapping in or out heavier throws and pillows for lighter, brighter textiles.
If you are more ambitious and want to invest some money and sweat equity, there is no end of projects to tackle. Pintrest is a mind-blowing source of ideas. A fresh coat of paint on the wall creates instant transformation. It adds new life to furniture or accessories that are battered and beaten up. No sanding or prep necessary with Annie Sloan chalk paint. Wallpaper is experiencing resurgence if you dare tackle that project. My point, and I do have one, is that with creativity and a bit of money, we can update, refresh, renew our surroundings. With the state of the economy we need to tap into our resourcefulness and the ‘can do’ spirit of our ancestors to get us through until times get better. Come to think of it, those are great attributes anytime, from where I sit.

County budget deliberations continue Michelle Pinon Editor
Members of Lamont County council poured over the budget numbers with administration last Thursday. While no final decisions were made, there was information forthcoming to aid them in their decision. Debbie Hackman, Director of Corporate Services presented a request for decision to council proposing that $3,650,958 in unrestricted surplus from 2015 be transferred to reserves. Council agreed to the proposal. Coun. Roy Bryks made the motion, and it was carried unanimously. The transfer of funds that will be used to fund capital projects included: •Bridge Replacement Capital Reserve - $1 million • H e a r t l a n d Implementation Plan Professional Fees Reserve - $23,000 •Statutory Plan Reviews Professional Fees -
$25,000 • I n d u s t r i a l D e v e l o p m e n t Professional Fees $23,000 •Building Replacement Capital Reserve $500,000 •Road Operating Reserve - $1.8 million •Road Construction Capital Reserve $279,958 Hackman also recommended to council to raise residential and farm taxes, (millrate), by two per cent to allow for a contingency in the area of $56,000 for any over expenditures. On average, that would amount to an increase of $20 per ratepayer. If council agrees to the proposal at its next budget meeting, then the municipality will be left with an operating surplus of $107,754. More than 90 per cent of the county’s revenue comes from linear assessment, which includes pipelines, powerlines, industrial and commercial property. This year alone, the amount of lin-
ear assessment that will be decreased by $1 million. Industrial Assessment Specialist Ray Fortin stated during his presentation to council that because of a change to assessment year modifiers, a formula that is regulated by the province, the county’s industrial assessment dropped from $30 million to $18 million. Municipal Affairs Minister Danielle Larivee issued a statement saying, “I have heard from many municipalities across the province on this issue, (linear assessment), and I have been very clear that we will not be funneling linear assessment dollars to Calgary, Edmonton, or any other city. Linear dollars will stay in rural communities, serving rural Albertans.” She also reiterated the fact she is a rural Albertan and understands the importance of linear assessment for rural municipalities to deliver quality services,
and maintain prosperous, sustainable communities. “In our platform we promised to review linear assessment to ensure it was meeting the needs of all rural Albertans and all rural communities. Our objective is clear: to keep rural Alberta healthy and strong, and to ensure services for rural Albertans are accessible and sustainable. Nothing in the linear assessment review will jeopardize that objective.” Larivee added, “When we share the outcome of the linear assessment review, it will be draft only, and Albertans will have an opportunity to fully engage before the final decision is made.” As to the final budget, Hackman said she won’t be able to release it to council until after the province’s budget on April 14 since the municipality is waiting for the amount of money it will have to pay for its school requisition and seniors requisition.
Vegreville television theft remains unsolved Three weeks after a flat screen television from the Vegreville WalMart, RCMP are still looking for the shoplifters. According to an April 8 press release, Vegreville RCMP are looking for the assistance of the public to identify the male and female on the surveillance video footage as they entered the store. At approximately 9 p.m. on March 17, two individuals entered WalMart empty handed, walked to the electronics section of the store, picked up a flat screen television and walked out of the store.
This is video security footage of the two suspects that was taken at the Vegreville Walmart on Thursday, March 17 at 9 p.m.

Last Wednesday, April 6, local firefighters were called to respond to a wildfire north of Highway 29 and Range Road 173. Extremely strong winds kept crews busy most of the afternoon. Michelle Pinon Editor
Wildfire season is in full swing, and local fire departments are keeping busy. Last week there was a wildfire on Perpetual Energy’s site on Range Road 173, just north of Highway 29 and another fire on Range Road 193 north of Township Road 544.
Fire Chief Randy Siemens said the Chipman are fire involved trees, grass, and sheds. “It was one of the late fire permits issued,” stated Siemens. According to the county’s emergency services department, ratepayers are charged $200 per hour per piece of equipment on scene, and only charge out for fire and motor vehicle incidents.
The average fire call can last anywhere from one to four hours on average. For example there were a total of 2,170 man hours used on 207 calls last year. Only 68 of those calls were billed out with the amount totalling $121,676. That number represents the cost of those bills, but not what has been paid to date. Also, out of that amount only 18 were for

Sludge build-up in lagoons prompts Mundare council to approve project Michelle Pinon Editor
While some topics are tantalizing, others are not; but you still have to talk about them never-the-less. One such topic is sewage. Most unpleasant, sewage is a fact of life, and at times there are issues that a municipality must address. In this case, Mundare’s town council has to address an expensive cleaning project for its lagoons, whether it wants to or not. It is estimated that the town’s lagoons haven’t been cleaned in a decade, so cleaning it now is a necessity for the municipality. Cleaning isn’t inexpensive, and the projected cost of cleaning the lagoons is in the area of $400,000. Colin Zyla, Chief Administrative Officer for the Town of Mundare said that four anaerobic and three facultative cells need to be cleaned. “We are applying for our 2016 capital grant for the project, (we don’t have the 2016 numbers yet), estimated to be $213,948 with $129,000 from reserves, and the rest from the 2017 MSI (Municipal Sustainability Grant).” He went on to say, “The sludge has built up, and it needs to be cleaned. The sludge will be removed and disposed.”
Mary Olive Danyluk’s Family would like to express a sincere Thank you to Dr. Iordace and the entire staff at the Lamont Health Care Center. Your kindness before and after her passing will never be forgotten. Also Thank you, Ed Koroluk and the staff from Lamont’s Park Memorial. Your service reached above and beyond all expectations.

Chinese companies commit to invest in Alberta’s petrochemical industrial heartland signing MOU Alberta’s Industrial Heartland (April 7, 2016) – Alberta’s petrochemical sector could see an increase in investment by Chinese companies with the signing of a new Memorandum of Understanding (MOU). Signed recently in Hong Kong, the MOU is between Alberta’s Industrial Heartland Association (AIHA) and the Can-China Global Resource Fund (CCGRF). As a result of continued efforts by AIHA and our growing reputation in China, a more formalized relationship has been created with CCGRF. It is one of the world’s top investment funds that assists Chinese firms in making investment abroad. Signing the MOU will result in better information sharing, mutual promotion, and detailed research which will aid investment decisions of Chinese firms. “China is currently Alberta’s second largest trading partner. It makes sense to build upon this already thriving trade relationship,” commented Ed Gibbons, Chair of Alberta’s Industrial Heartland Association. “Chinese petrochemical companies are actively seeking investment opportunities abroad, and we want to be their number one choice. Signing this MOU will help steer them towards Alberta,” stated Gibbons. Given the province’s economic and market access challenges, it is an ideal time to enhance relations in Asian markets. New investment in our petrochemical sector would provide a much needed boost to Alberta’s economy and employment. Therefore, AIHA has been actively involved with the
Government of Alberta in attracting new investment into the province. “The Alberta Trade Offices have been a great help in opening doors in this market. We were pleased to have Minister Deron Bilous present at the signing of this MOU as it is a big win for all of Alberta,” acknowledged Gibbons. This new MOU aligns with the Government of Alberta’s recent commitment to access new markets, increase diversification, and create jobs within the province. “We are very pleased that the Government of Alberta was able to facilitate an agreement of this scale between AIHA and CCGRF,” said Honourable Deron Bilous, Minister of Economic Development and Trade for the Alberta Government. “Developing these relationships is critical to furthering sustainable economic development in Alberta and our government is committed to working with our partners to help create jobs and diversify our economy. I was pleased to be part of this with AIHA and look forward to continued partnerships.” The last few decades have seen a dramatic rise in foreign investment around the globe by Chinese firms. As one of the world’s fastest growing economies, with a population of over 1.3 billion people, China’s reliance on energy imports continues to increase. Organizations like CCGRF are therefore actively pursuing investment opportunities in resource rich locations like Alberta. Jack Yang, CEO of CCGRF commented, “We, at the Can-China Global Resource Fund, are delighted to

Demolition work began on this building on Chipmanʼs main street around three weeks ago by the Village of Chipman. According to Walter Motykaʼs Memories of Chipman history book the original building was Bettin Brothers Garage which burnt down in the 1931 fire in Chipman. Around 1940-42, Andy Sketka had a shoe repair shop on this site. Peter Sharun then built his service station on the lot in 1946, and in 1950, Joe and Nancy Letawski purchased the property which had the garage and house as it stands today.

Stars of the Mundare fire department fundraiser to support STARS Michelle Pinon Editor
Stars of the Mundare Fire Department will be hitting the stage once again in support of STARS Air Ambulance this Saturday, April 16. Mundare Fire Chief Glenda Dales says emergency services, (fire departments) work hand in hand with STARS, hosting a variety of fundraisers for the nonprofit life saving organization for the past 17 years. “We have raised, with the support of the community, over $75,000.” Dales points out that, “The new STARS helicopter, the AW139, cost over $5 million dollars and the average flight costs $5,400 with no cost to the patient.” She went on to say, “STARS impacts the lives of thousands of Albertans. We have landed STARS a
number of times in the last couple of years, and it is amazing to see the skill and dedication of these people. I have personally talked with many people from all over the province who have been involved with STARS, and they all agree that they or their loved ones would probably not survived without the STARS response. “It is always awesome to have taken part in landing the helicopter, and seeing the patients receiving some of the best care possible.” “At the end of the day, handing over the cheque to the STARS rep knowing that we are part of the STARS family, is a very rewarding feeling,” says Dales. She is hoping folks will come out and enjoy an evening of homegrown talent, and support one of Alberta’s life saving organizations in the process. Tickets are available at the town office and ATB Mundare branch.

Lamont archer reaches top three in Canada Michelle Pinon Editor
When it comes to archery, Clay Laronde always leaves everything he has on the line, and the recent 3-D Indoor National Championships in Surrey, BC, was no exception. Despite his young age, the Lamont 13-year-old, is accustomed to competing on the national and provincial stage as well as local indoor and outdoor shoots. “I push hard to be number one,” says Clay. The biggest challenge is to stay focused, and not break concentration, even in the most challenging conditions. He has earned many medals over the past seven years to show for it. In his most recent showing, Clay won a bronze medal at the nationals. Of course, practice is one of the major keys to success, but so is his extreme passion, out-

standing dedication, and unwavering commitment to the sport. Dad, Murray, who is also an archer and coach, says belief in yourself and confidence also play a key role in an athlete’s success. “There’s always more to strive for,” says Murray, who is always at Clay’s side to assist him in any way possible both on and off the line. Murray says having the skills and strong mental attitude go a long way to ensuring success. No matter what the competition is, Clay says you have to shoot your own game, and not worry about other competitors. Each event also presents unique challenges whether it’s the weather, lighting, the amount of targets or sizes of targets, course conditions, noise, or state of mind as well as body. Clay says this year’s nationals were particularly challenging. “The last course was an
extremely tough course.” During the championship Clay garnered a total of 763 points out of a total 844 points. Even though he felt he could have shot a higher score, he did manage to make the top three out of 15 shooters in his age category. Strength, stamina and steadiness are things that require practice and persistence, and for this local teen he plans on doing just that over the next three years. One of his goals is to compete in the World Archery Championship in Lac La Biche in 2019. Given his past record of accomplishments, and his tenacious drive and determination, he will probably reach the world stage as well. He is definitely a bright light in the community and will likely shine bright for our province and country in the years to come.

Fantastic food and entertainment awaits at Zabava Babas & Borshch Ukrainian Festival ready to serve up the best
SUBMITTED ARTICLE Babas & Borshch Ukrainian Festival Coordinator Hazel Anaka is pleased to announce the line-up of talent for the 2016 Zabava to be held Saturday, August 20th in Andrew. “We’re pleased that we’ve been able to hold prices steady at $50 a ticket for the fourth straight year. As before, we have some exceptional acts ready, willing, and able to entertain our crowd, “ said Anaka. “It’s hard to know whether people come for the incredible Ukrainian banquet or the amazing entertainment,” said Jim Newman, Lamont County Manager of Economic Development. “Luckily they don’t have to choose. In January a small committee was treated to a tasting of menu items and we believe people will be very impressed. “A Taste for Life” Ukrainian Café & Bistro by St. John’s Institute of Edmonton is the 2016 caterer and one of our weekend food vendors.” This year Edmonton’s Verkhovyna Ensemble featuring the Dunai Dancers and the Verkhovyna Choir will provide the incredible sound and colour audiences have come to expect during floor-level performances at the Zabava. Guests need to stay long enough to witness (or take part in!) the traditional kolomyika. To round out the evening Edmonton’s Trembita offers a wide variety of dance music, from traditional Ukrainian songs to a mix of pop, country, and rock. “I’ve been fielding ticket inquiries for a couple

So we’re doing that again. Tickets are available online,
by mail, or in person at the Andrew Village Office.” Stay tuned for more Festival 2016 news as we unveil plans for marking the 125th anniversary of Ukrainian immigration to Canada.

Team Bruderheim wins again When is the best time Michelle Pinon Editor
Chalk up another victory for Team Bruderheim. Through regional collaboration, Bruderheim, along with its partners, Lamont County, Strathcona County, and the City of Fort Saskatchewan, were successful in securing $296,000 in grant funding for the local hockey arena. “We are overjoyed at the great news of the financial support from the Provincial Government,” stated elated Bruderheim Mayor Karl Hauch. “I would like to thank the wonderful supporters of our community, from the fantastic hard working business community in Bruderheim and area, to every resident and group in town; especially the wonderful not for profits
starting with the Bruderheim Minor Sports Association and the Bruderheim Ag. Society, to just mention a few. Also, thankful for our steadfast and hardworking town staff.” Hauch went on to thank the town’s municipal partners and the provincial government for throwing their support behind the successful grant application. He added that its volunteers are “second to none”, and is very proud the town, as a collective group, stood tall together to see the project through. In the official letter from Municipal Affairs Minister Danielle Larivee, she stated: “Your partnership exemplifies this ideal and I am pleased to inform you that the Town of Bruderheim has been approved for a grant of $296,000 under the
Intermunicipal Collaboration component in support of your arena ice plant equipment replacement project.” Larivee also emphasized that, “The Government of Alberta encourages strong working relationships between communities and regional approaches to municipal service delivery and supports regional and capacity building priorities through the Alberta Community Partnership (ACP) program. “We can now rest assured that our arena will be a huge part of our community for many more generations to come. I am looking forward to the day we can host a grand celebration for this momentous milestone for our community,” said Hauch.
to pre-plan your funeral? Funeral Home and Crematorium The best time to begin making your prearrangements is NOW, while you’re thinking about it. While some people in their 30s, 40s, and 50s may think it’s too early, many people find that prearranging their funeral is smart financial planning and gives them added peace of mind knowing they aren’t leaving this burden to family members. By taking time now to collect cost information and calmly making choices related to your own funeral arrangements, you’ll be protecting your family against the stress of having to make these decisions at a time of extreme emotional distress. This checklist will help you make sure every detail is tended to: 1) 2) 3) 4) 5) 6)
Have a Will and tell those whom are stated in it, where it is, and what it states Prepare a list of people who should be contacted in case of a medical emergency or death Write an obituary or write down information needed for an obituary Decide where the obituary should appear Choose the type of service you would like (Burial or Cremation) Choose your details: • Cemetery lot location • Casket type/Cremation urn type • Vault/Sectional crypt • Type of service: religious, military, and other • Your pallbearers • Your music selection • Your flowers • Readings at service and who will read them • Choose the charity, church, or organization you would like donations to be made to • Choose your funeral and visitation location
Now that you’ve figured out the details, it’s time to make sure they’re carried out. Follow up with a Funeral Professional to collect the most up to date funeral costs for peace of mind.

The Lamont Leader (Lamont, Alberta), Tuesday, April 12, 2016 - 19
Local school students find their voice through public speaking competitions Sherwood Park, AB — More than 70 of the top student speakers from 24 elementary schools in Elk Island Public Schools (EIPS) are getting set to compete in the sixth annual EIPS/ATB Young Speakers Invitational on April 14. Throughout February and March, more than 2,800 EIPS students from Grades 4 through 6 competed in speech competitions at their schools in front of a panel of independent judges. Three finalists from each school, one in each grade, were chosen and now move on to compete in this year’s EIPS/ATB Young Speakers Invitational. “Public speaking is such a valuable skill with many practical applications — from making presentations to convey-
ing one’s strengths to simply carrying on a conversation,” says Jordan Smith, the event co-ordinator and a teacher at Brentwood Elementary. “Throughout the Division, our students have worked incredibly hard to get ready for this event, and in doing so, have truly honed their public speaking skills — they should all be proud of themselves.” Students who have advanced to the Young Speakers Invitational will now present their speeches to a panel of judges in a preliminary round. The top four, from each grade, will then advance to the final round and will present their speeches one last time to the judges. All participants in this year’s invitational will take home a special
prize while students who make it to the finals will also take home a commemorative plaque. “Judges will be looking for students who are able to marry good and organized content with the ability to present it with interest and conviction,” says Smith. “All of the competitors this year deserve credit for the creativity and confidence they’ve demonstrated, which is no easy feat.” The evening will also include a silent auction with all proceeds going towards the Robin Hood Association. Last year the auction raised close to $4,000 and has raised more than $18,000 since its inception. Participating EIPS schools include: A.L. Horton Elementary, Andrew School, École Élémentaire Ardrossan
