Graduates from Lamont High School ended their graduation ceremony on Friday, June 5 with a bang as confetti was catapulted into the air and cascaded down onto the stage at the culmination of the exercises.
‘Make the most of what life has to offer,’ says Bartz Good evening ladies, gentlemen, honorable guests and fellow graduates. It is an honor and privilege to be speaking to you as the Valedictorian for the Graduating class of 2015. Over the past six years here at Lamont High School, we have learned a lot. One of the more important things that we have learned is that we need each other in order to succeed. None of us would be where we are or who we are, without the people who surround us. Not only did the relationships between us as classmates benefit us throughout the years, but also the supportive relationships with family and the relationships developed with the teachers, have all brought us to sit before you all tonight. While attending LHS we have all learned something from every teacher in the school, and seeing as there is only so much time to tell you about them, I am going to pick a few teachers in order to paint a picture for you. I feel as if Mr. Hanke is one of the better-known and more memorable teachers. He taught us grade seven Math and instilled fear into us by threatening to give us the all-familiar punishment of ‘The Pain Train’. He also has some interesting takes on math principles that somehow consisted of putting your boots on and Dolly Parton. Mrs. Newnam is one of the more recent arrivals at LHS but has been very supportive of all students and somehow went out of her way to smile and deliver compliments to her students on a day-to-day basis. Mr. Putnam taught most of us, if not all of us, science at one point through our high school career. He put up with all of us during his classes and taught all of the science
courses with passion. On a more personal level, in physics 20 he brought up how there is an alien race that has been discovered on earth called the tallwhites, needless to say, the class thought I was an alien from then on. In English class Mr. Wyman tried to help us understand things on a figurative and literal level, and all the stuff we learned in that class I am sure will be helpful. Oh wait, I guess it didn’t really help because I just used the two terms that he tried to steer us away from using. Apparently ‘stuff’ and ‘things’ aren’t descriptive enough. Last, but not least, we have Mr. Hope. Even when you weren’t in a class with Mr. Hope you could, without a doubt, hear him because he was so loud. I can’t remember how many times he would disrupt us by hitting his board while we were trying to write essays in the computer lab next to his room. I guess that’s what happens when one is so passionate about math. This passion made math enjoyable and inspired me to learn more and attempt harder questions. Thank you Mr. Hope, for inspiring me, pushing me to achieve something better, for not giving up on me and for being my friend. On behalf of myself and my fellow graduates, I would like to thank everyone who has helped us become who we are and who have helped us get us to the point of graduating. First of all, I would like to thank all of the teachers; you have made a huge impact on our lives and have helped us become who we are. Without all of you, none of us would have the knowledge or experience that we now have. Thank you for making school an enjoyable place and help-
ing us throughout the years. I would also like to take this time to thank our families. From the time we were little on you were there helping us and guiding us, whether it be helping us with homework after school, giving us advice on what type of person we should grow up to be or being that shoulder to cry on. I would like to thank you all. Lastly, I would like to thank my friends and fellow graduValedictorian ates, without you guys Jared Bartz class wouldn’t be as fun, nor would it be as inspiring. It may just be me, but you all have helped me aspire to be a better person and a better student. Without any of you, my teachers, family and friends, none of this would be possible. I searched for wise and inspiring words from some famous person but nothing spoke to me or made more sense than what a great and wonderful man passionately claims: ‘Math Is A Wonderful Thing’. I cannot agree more. So with that, good luck to all of my fellow graduates, I wish you all the best with your future endeavors and hope that you will all live your lives to the fullest and that you will make the most of what life has to offer.

Sunshine reigns down on Chipman Car Crafters 15th annual Show and Shine
Michelle Pinon Editor
By all accounts, the Chipman Car Crafters 15th annual Show And Shine was a huge success, and one of the best to date. Members of the Car Crafters and spectators all agreed that Perry Dolhaniak’s blue and white 1956 Bel Air “Belluh” was the Best of
Show and People’s Choice Winner. Organizers were very happy with the number of entries, officially registered number was 276 and the number of paid participants at 1,200. There were so many makes and models of cars and trucks on display that it was hard to truly appreciate all of the time and effort that
was invested in these strikingly beautiful automobiles. Gary Leppek, a car enthusiast from Andrew, brought his 1966 Pontiac GTO muscle car, to display. ”It’s the first time I’ve entered the Chipman show. I’m here in part to promote the Andrew Garlic Festival said Leppek, who will be
organizing a car show during the event that will take place on Oct 10 this year. “It’s a 389 V8 with three dueces,” added Leppek, who purchased the vehicle in Boston three years ago. He is currently restoring a 1947 Studebaker, and hopes to have it ready to show in the garlic festival.

New Mundare town councillor sworn into public office on June 2 SUBMITTED BY THE TOWN OF MUNDARE Lisa was born and raised in Newmarket, Ontario. She enjoys fishing, reading, camping and spending time with her family. She married her wonderful husband Dave in 1997, and they have three beautiful children - Emily, Lauren and Andrew. Lisa stayed home for 11 years with the kids and sold Tupperware for eight years, working around her husband’s shifts. Lisa became involved with her kids’ not-for-profit preschool, volunteering as the fundraising coordinator. She did that for two years then became the secretary of the board for one, was co-chair for a year and chair of the board for the last year her son attended the preschool. Once the children started attending public school, Lisa became the volunteer Breakfast for Learning Program Co-ordinator and Snack Bin Program Co-
ordinator, ensuring that all kids could start their day off with a meal if they weren’t able to have one at home. The snack bins were in every classroom and could be accessed at any time all day for healthy snacks. Lisa did all of the shopping, scheduling of other volunteers and meal planning. Lisa’s husband Dave was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s Lymphoma in late 2010: after a year of chemo and recovery, they took stock of their lives and realized that things needed to change. So Lisa and Dave moved the family to Mundare in August of 2013. Lisa currently works at Mundare Registry Ltd. full time. She also volunteers as fundraising coordinator at Mundare School and with the Mundare Minor Hockey Association when needed. Lisa looks forward to being a part of this great community as a councilor and helping Mundare be the best it can be!

Opinion From Where I Sit: A Change of Scenery
By Hazel Anaka Some days when a poor columnist’s brain seems shriveled and bereft of a fresh new idea (or a new take on an old
idea) she is forced to create one of those compilation or list type pieces. Having a theme is preferable of course but sometimes a selection of interconnected bits that could be skillfully woven together just isn’t there when you need them. Some topics will never grow up to be full-blown columns not because they aren’t important enough but because most writers return again and again to those topics that naturally interest or plague them. We write to understand something or more accurately ourselves. Ponder these. 1. Consider how the
federal government continues to hurt the very military veterans they profess to value so deeply in speech after speech. We all understand that like our own resources, government coffers are finite. But no one can tolerate this ongoing hypocrisy. Perhaps some of the new budget announcements will mitigate the damage done. It’s time. 2. Though I’m older than the four hosts of CTV’s daily show The Social or even their target demographic, I love the show. It’s so much politer (read: less shrieking and interrupting) than the American
equivalent The View. Yet it’s relevant, sexy, cutting edge, and so funny. I feel it’s keeping this old gal in the know about what’s hot and what’s not. And it’s Canadian! 3. The regimental funeral for Cst. David Wynn was a somber yet spectacular outpouring of love and respect for one special man and the policing/first responder family he represents. Whose heart didn’t break watching his boys try to remain strong in front of our country as their hearts were breaking with personal loss? If his death is to serve any purpose whatsoever it should lead to an exami-
nation of the factors that led to his killer being allowed to ‘walk among us.’ As a Justice of the Peace for more than thirty years I’ve known a number of Mounties and have some understanding of the danger their days entail. Who among us would step forward to accept those risks? Not I. 4. On my fridge is a Rhymes with Orange cartoon from last fall. It spoke to me. I also knew Hilary, the consummate over-packer needed to see it. It shows an open suitcase and three arrows pointing towards work you won’t do, clothes you won’t wear, and books you won’t
read. OMG. Talk about getting real. It niggled at me as we packed for our first ever cruise and the reality of new airline luggage fees. Lord knows I’m trying to be smart. I took my Kobo but never even fired it up. Read paper books instead. Never took the laptop so that helped. We rechecked the clothes we packed before the final zip up. Foregoing the weight of a guilty conscience also helped. Perhaps I need a change of scenery to provide new material for the column, from where I sit.
Chipmanville My husband and I decided to take a stroll late Sunday morning. When we opened the door to go outside we heard the familiar strain of Jimmy Buffet’s song Margaritaville coming from main street Chipman. Actually main street, didn’t even look like main street as we know it, because there were hundreds of souped up muscle cars, restored classics dating back to the 1920’s, and a multitude of collectible automobiles lining both sides of the road. Of course, it was time for the annual Chipman Car Crafters Club Show And Shine! The first Sunday in June is always reserved for the event that draws hundreds of entries and hundreds upon hundreds of spectators from all corners of the province. The 15th edition was quite a sight to see, as the population of the small community, currently around 350 residents, blossoms to close to 1,500 visitors over the span of about six hours. The atmosphere is fun-filled with a live band, draws, refreshments, and booths spread throughout the downtown core. It’s hard to imagine all of the organization and co-operation that goes on behind the scenes to make everything operate smoothly and seamlessly; but thanks to the Car Crafters and other local community based groups for making the event so successful and keeping this community on the map.

Why do school boards have reserves? EIPS board chair Trina Boymook explains Throughout last month’s provincial election school board reserves were referenced on a number of occasions. Many asked: Why do school boards have reserves? Well, there are a number of reasons. At the most basic level, reserves are the money a school board doesn’t spend during the course of a year and instead saves to cover any unexpected costs such as emergent issues, capital purchases, and strategic planning. The reality is, school boards can experience a decrease in government funding with any given provincial budget. The original 2015 provincial budget was a prime example and was considered an emergent issue for boards province wide. In previous years, boards have had to deal with grants being cut mid-year, which also presents significant challenges because they then
had to absorb the costs of prog r a m s and services until the end of t h e school y e a r . Wi t h o u t access to reserves, it would be next to impossible to manage. A board’s capital plan also influences its reserves.
EIPS board chair Trina Boymook
Annually, money is set aside by the board to cover any costs not funded by the provincial government for a given project – projects such as a modular, a roof repair, a modernization. Boards are expected to absorb
the cost of their staff involvement in these projects and any unforeseen expenses that arise. As with any major renovation, or new build, there are always unforeseen costs. So, reserves protect school divisions
Geo Challenge winners Students at Mundare School once again participated in The Great Canadian Geography Challenge this year. For an intense 10 days, first the Grade 7/8’s and then the Grade 4–6’s answered provincial, national and internationally based questions. These 10 daily questions may be about geography, animal life, mapping or even weather or natural disasters, each one though, an opportunity to learn about the world around us. At the end of this period, the 3 students with the most points from each grade,
moves on to the School Championships. The Grade 7 & 8 Champion also takes part in a Provincial challenge online. Both Champions receive personalized certificates, beautiful Silver medals and a one year subscription to Canadian Geographic Magazine! This year’s Champions; Brandon (Grade 4–6) and Dylan (Grade 7–8) are pictured here as well as our Finalists from Grades 4–6; Reeve, Jessica, Aldin, Mya, Brandon, Raeanne, Kazlynn, and Jessie.
in these scenarios. Reserves also allow boards to plan for large purchases. Similar to most households, school boards often accumulate reserves year-after-year to purchase items they can’t afford within one budgeting period. Overall, school boards are generally advised to hold anywhere from one per cent to four per cent of their budget in reserves as a safe guard. Within Elk Island Public Schools (EIPS), the target for reserves is two per cent of its annual operating budget. With an overall budget of approximately $191 million, EIPS maintains roughly $4 million in reserves, which is well within the recommended standard. So, to go back to the original question: Why do school boards have reserves? It simply allows Boards to be responsible.

Lion Marshal Maydanski pitches in wherever and whenever he can for the Chipman Lions Club, but he doesn’t expect anything in return other than a thank you; so when he was granted a Life Membership for his hard work and dedication recently by the Lions Foundation of Canada, he was very surprised. “It’s very humbling,� said Maydanski who loves being able to serve his club and community in a variety of ways. One of his favourite ways of serving the Chipman Lions Club, which he has
been a member for the last five years is through the Lions Foundation of Canada “Dog Guides� program. Maydanaksi says the dogs are trained in a variety of ways and says it is quite amazing what the canine’s are able to do. The Lions Foundation of Canada Dog Guides trains dogs in six programs, all to provide increased independence and safety to people with medical or physical disabilities. Canine Vision is for people who are blind or visually impaired, while the Hearing Ear program is for people who are deaf or hard of hearing. There is also a service for
people with a physical disability. Seizure Response is for people with epilepsy. Autism Assistance for children and teens with autism spectrum disorder, and Diabetic Alert for people with type 1 diabetes with hypoglycemic unawareness. Maydanski is also a member of the Chipman Golden Seniors Club, and participates in pancakes breakfasts, bingo nights, and perogy suppers. Always willing to lend a hand to his fellow man, Maydanski is a wonderful example for others in Chipman and beyond.

WOLDANSKI, Ann June 1, 1985 We think of you in silence And often, speak your name, But thirty years have passed, And things are not the same. Our memories, though, are endless, And your wisdom is still our guide, And, though we cannot see you, You’ll always be at our side. The special years will not return When we were all together. But with eternal love within our hearts You walk with us forever. Lovingly remembered and forever missed by all your Family

Chomiak family hosts unique christening ceremony Michelle Pinon Editor
Jim, who swapped a funny story with John while other family members and friends were arriving at their country home southeast of Mundare during the afternoon. Then guests wandered a short distance to the corral where Stella and her mother Janice were waiting. For simplicity sake John separated the pair, and put Stella in the squeeze chute for the
blessing. At Stella Stevens request, John placed a CFCW cowbell around her neck. It appeared as if Stella enjoyed the pouring of the “special water” on her head as the temperature was a 28 degrees celsius. Stella Stevens asked John to tell her and the crowd that had gathered why Stella is such a supreme being? “Obviously, I like the
name,” replied John. He went onto describe the heifer as energetic with the potential to become a show animal—even at only three and a half months of age. Marty is the father and Janice is the mother of Stella the heifer, and John see’s a bright future ahead for their child. Walking back to the yard, friend Linda Mabbott commented, “I don’t know where John
comes up with these ideas, but they’re great!” Her husband Les said it would make a good cover story, and maybe even make headlines around the world. A group photo was taken before champagne was uncorked and served by Stella Stevens. Then guests were treated to a wonderful barbecue. Maybe this being such a stellar and unique event will make it into the
Guinness Book of World Records? Even if it doesn’t, it will hold plenty of personal significance and special memories for Stella Stevens, John and Cathie Chomiak, Jim Skitsko, and all of the guests who had the honour of participating in the celebration. As retired Canadian broadcaster Lloyd Robertson use to say, “That was quite the afternoon.”
The name Stella means “Star” and the star of CFCW’s morning show, Stella Stevens, was at the christening of her namesake Stella on Sunday, June 7 at the home of John and Cathie Chomiak. To be perfectly clear, the namesake is a heifer; not a person as one would naturally assume. Nevertheless, the purebred Charlolais was born two days after the radio celebrity’s birthday on Feb. 17 so John decided to name the calf Stella in her honour. Then one of his close friends and neighbours, Peter Budinski, said to him: “We’ve got to have a christening.” Always game for some fun, John agreed, and soon plans Andrew Schmidt, Licensed and Insured were in the making for a Call to book for spraying one-of-a-kind celebration. Agreeing to get in on the act, was close per- Jim Skitsko blesses Stella the heifer as John Chomiak looks on. sonal friend and judge Jim Skitsko, who said he would bless the little darling.
