New Viking RCMP Commander Sgt. Stack says he hopes to build on community relationships Patricia Harcourt Editor

Viking RCMP Detachment’s new commander wants to bring a burst of community engagement into the job. Sgt. Ray Stack is also hoping to up the ante against property crime in the community and vehicle theft. He sees these two as the major policing issues for Viking and area. Stack arrived Oct. 7 to take over the police chief position, “I was busy from the start,” he said. His last posting prior to this was in Vegreville where he picked up a lot of experience. “I was there for five years,” he said. Having graduated from the RCMP Depot in Regina in 2009, he brings a large body of experience to this new job. “At Vegreville, there was a good number of police officers and we did a lot of work on crime prevention, drugs and mental health.” Stack is married with a daughter and plans to do some commuting when on his days off. In the meantime, he is enthusiastically embracing community policing initiatives such as youth and sports programs in the school. “We have lots of plans to engage with the school and community,” he said, while emphasizing the need for crime prevention initiatives as well.

And he has noticed that property theft is on the rise, while suspecting there are people visiting from outside the community who may be responsible. “A few people are coming from the city and befriending people from here,” he said, noting it appears to be bringing crime into the area. “That relationship’s got to stop.” He urged residents to call the RCMP, if they see strangers in town. “If they are not living here, what are they doing here?” he asked, stating that this is how property theft often happens. His advice to residents is to “lock everything.” But he called vehicle thefts “the biggest thing in Viking…It’s happening right in daylight.” Residents have to be watchful of what is happening around them, and suspicious when things don’t seem to add up. “If you don’t recognize somebody and they look suspicious, and it’s out of the ordinary and they don’t look like they belong, give us a call,” he said. “We can find out what they are doing here.” Stack’s emphasis going forward will be on working with the community and working to increase crime prevention. “I want to build that relationship,” he said.

Viking’s main street hosts Trick or Treaters Patricia Harcourt Editor

Halloween in Viking’s downtown was a fun afternoon and evening Thursday, October 31 as businesses, restaurants, grocery store and other service locations within Viking’s downtown opened their hearts and their doors to trick or treaters. They came in many styles of costume, looking cute or ghastly, but all were having fun running in and out of establishments enjoying their time gathering up the goodies. A list was made up of all the places handing out candy and the Hal-

loween’ers tried their best to get to all of them. Cloverlodge Stampede Association treated them to a hot dog on what turned out to be a very chilly day. Also in Troll Park that day was the Town of Viking held with a barbeque. The Viking Royal Purple gave out candy to all the trick or treaters as they made their way up and down main street. The Viking Municipal Library rounded the day off with a “spooky good time” providing games and other fun from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. Truly it was a “spooktacular” time for all!

Perogy Supper in Bruce a hit Some of the kitchen volunteers happily showed off some of the huge number of perogies that were to be served to a hall full of hungry patrons at the Bruce Agricultural Society’s annual Perogy Supper on Saturday, Nov. 2. An amazing amount of work goes into the preparation for this fundraiser. Many hands were at the Bruce Community Centre last week peeling potatoes, making perogies, cutting onions and preparing meats for the extravaganza supper. PATRICIA HARCOURT PHOTOS

OPINION

JOHN’S RANT Smith solidifies her grip on UCP with record support Well it was a lot more than anyone had predicted. Premier Danielle Smith got a 91.5 per cent approval rating when the results of the UCP leadership review came in. When making her speech before the 6,000 faithful who gathered in Red Deer, she stressed the need for unity in the party. “(We must) remain united as a party and a movement,” she said. “But let us not sink to the level of our opponents by attacking or vilifying one another, or breaking into factions and working with leftists to bring down our movement.” Her success following the weekend should make the Federal Liberals and NDP sit up and take notice. She just got one of the strongest mandates any party leader in Canada has received and you know she’ll continue to fight for Albertans over Ottawa’s intrusion into public affairs. Even a lame duck prime minister like Justin Trudeau should recognize her review

numbers give her a position of strength to negotiate with Ottawa. Now the negative writers at the Tyee, a very left wing publication, stated Nov. 4, her win just means the UCP party is totally controlled by right wing extremists. And mainstream media comparing her leadership win percentage against NDP leader Naheed Nenshi’s leadership vote (which was 86 per cent of the NDP voters) was “preposterous and a little sad.” The author of this garbage piece went on to compare Smith with the leadership of Kim Jong Un who heads up the closed regime of North Korea. Now that’s a pretty off-the-wall comment with nothing to support it. During the Red Deer bun toss the UCP delegates passed all 35 resolutions that were presented to the party members. These will now go to the government where they may eventually become a policy or a piece of legislation. But not all of them

will. They are the messages from the grass roots of the governing party letting the Premier and her government know where their feelings lie. Some of the resolutions which may have been off the wall will not see the light of day while others with merit may form government policy sometime in the future. What Smith's leadership results show, however, is that she is in control of the UCP. The Tyee further writes, “Readers may have seen suggestions in the media that now that Smith’s leadership review is successfully concluded, she will start to act more seriously. “Don’t believe it. The extremists are going to continue to call the tune and, insomuch as she might disagree with them, Smith can be expected to continue to dance to it.” I’ve got to disagree with this assessment. Smith’s results mean she has the support of her cabinet and any knives that may have

been waiting in the corridors of power to stab her in the back have been neutralized. I do expect her to continue with a Conservative agenda, but given the results of the last election and weekend review results this is the path the majority of Albertans want. The province wants a more libertarian view when it comes to vaccine policy, land owner rights and gun restrictions. They want someone with a strong voice to stand up and fight Ottawa. Results from recent elections in B.C. and

Saskatchewan show the Conservative movement still remains strong in the west. Meanwhile, Nenshi has said he’s in no hurry to get a legislative seat and take his place as official opposition leader in the Legislature. If he prolongs this, how long will his shadow cabinet continue to support him, if he’s not on the floor of the house guiding the battle as the captain of the ship? It begs the question, when he received all those thousands of votes to overwhelm his competitors in the NDP

Proudly serving the communities of Viking, Bruce, Kinsella, Holden, Irma, Innisfree, Ryley, Rural Vegreville, and surrounding areas since 1913!

leadership race, how many were anything more than one week party members? Will they be around when the next election rolls around? While the next election isn’t for another two-and-a-half years. In her speech Saturday morning, Smith mentioned the NDP just once. “Alberta’s economy is booming, and we aren’t slowing down for any Liberals or New Democrats in Ottawa, or New Democrats here in Alberta for that matter,” she said.

WORD ON THE STREET

Trail cam picks up trespassers on property east of Viking On October 28, police were advised by Two Hills RCMP that they had located an abandoned vehicle in their area. They had contacted the registered owner of the vehicle, who had a Viking address, and he advised he was not aware the vehicle had been stolen from his property. Police have no suspects at this time. That afternoon, police received a request to locate an individual who was believed to be residing in Viking. Police attended the last known residence of the person in question but learned he hadn’t lived there since July. The complainant was updated. On October 29, police were advised of a hit and run collision that had occurred at a local gas station. The complainant called back later to advise police could disregard as the matter had been settled with the driver’s insurance company. Later that morning, police received a complaint of a suspicious vehicle parked on a residential street in Viking. Police spoke with the owner and learned he was in town for work purposes. The complainant was updated. Also that day, police were advised of a suspicious vehicle that had been driven onto a business lot in Bruce during the early morning hours. The complainant had security footage of the vehicle

entering the property and a female exiting it and walking around the yard. The female then departed in the vehicle. Nothing was damaged or stolen. That afternoon, police received a complaint of an attempted phone scam. The complainant advised she had received a phone call from an unknown person who claimed she had won $2 million through STARS but she would have to purchase a $500 gift card from a local gas station in order to claim her prize. Fortunately, the complainant did not comply so did not become a victim of this scam. Police would like to remind the public that you will never have to pay or purchase anything in order to claim a prize won in any type of legitimate lottery. On October 30, police received a complaint of a theft of two vehicles from a property near Bruce. This matter is still under investigation. That night, police received a call for assistance from a stranded motorist on Highway 26. The caller advised her vehicle had broken down and she did not

feel safe waiting for a tow truck as her van was partially on the roadway. Police attended and provided traffic control until the tow truck arrived and removed the vehicle. On October 31, police received a complaint of a fraud that had occurred the week prior. The complainant advised she had received a phone call from an unknown person claiming to be with Bell Mobility. The caller offered the complainant a discounted phone package and then obtained credit card details and other personal information. A short time later, the complainant was contacted by her credit card company as there was a suspicious purchase on her account. The charge was reimbursed and the credit card was cancelled. Police are continuing to follow up on this complaint. On November 1, police received a complaint of a suspicious vehicle parked at a rural location near Viking. The complainant advised when he drove past the vehicle, the male driver pulled a hood over his head as if to hide his identity and

then the vehicle departed the area. Police made a patrol and located the vehicle in question on Highway 36 just north of Viking. A traffic stop was conducted and after speaking with the driver, it was determined nothing criminal had occurred and he was allowed to continue on his way. That afternoon, police received a complaint of trespassing on private property east of Viking. The complainant advised he had trail cam footage of a vehicle on his property and there were also signs that someone had been burning copper wire at the location. This matter is still under investigation. On November 2, police received a report of an erratic driver eastbound on Highway 14. Patrols were made; however, the vehicle in question was not located. On November 3, police received a report of a theft of property from a residence in Kinsella. The complainant called back later and advised the property had been returned and police could disregard her complaint. Viking RCMP

Semi carrying crude catches fire after rolling into ditch on Hwy 619 Patricia Harcourt Editor

A semi carrying crude oil hit the ditch and caught fire east of Viking on Saturday, Nov. 2. Plumes of black smoke could be seen arising from the location of the rollover, which Viking RCMP stated occurred on S.H. 619 near Rge. Rd. 120. “An eastbound semi pulling a tanker trailer hauling crude oil

caught the right shoulder of the roadway and was pulled into the ditch, causing it to roll and subsequently start on fire,” stated the RCMP in a Nov. 4 release. The highway was shut down for several hours while the fire was extinguished and the scene cleaned up. The semi’s driver, a 22-year-old male, was taken by EMS to hospital in Viking with minor injuries and later released

Police are continuing to investigate this incident.

Notice of application to be filed for approval of the natural gas distribution franchise agreement between the Town of Viking and ATCO Gas and Pipelines Ltd. Application summary The Alberta Utilities Commission expects to receive an application from ATCO Gas and Pipelines Ltd. to approve the existing current and valid natural gas distribution franchise agreement with the Town of Viking. This application for approval is required due to changes made by the Utilities Affordability Statutes Amendment Act, 2024, to various statutes governing franchise agreements. The current franchise agreement, which took effect in December of 2015, grants ATCO Gas and Pipelines Ltd. the exclusive right to deliver natural gas to the residents of Town of Viking for approximately 12 years. No changes to the franchise agreement or to the franchise fee rate rider percentage are being made as part of this application. The franchise fee rate rider percentage will remain at its current rate, which is 21.51%. Including linear taxes, the resulting average monthly franchise fee for an average residential customer will remain the same at approximately $13.27. The franchise fee is calculated based on distribution charges. An average residential customer uses about 105 gigajoules per year. You may send your concerns about, objections to, or support for the application in writing to the Town of Viking or to ATCO Gas and Pipelines Ltd. on or before November 20, 2024 at: Town of Viking, Doug Lefsrud, 5120 – 45 Street, P.O. Box 369, phone: 780-3363466; email: info.account@viking.ca. ATCO Gas and Pipelines Ltd., Attn: Franchise Agreement Coordinator, 5302 Forand Street S.W.

Holden Council suggests garbage bin placement audit, may consider individual bins Kari Janzen Staff Reporter

At the last regular Village of Holden council meeting, councillors discussed the location of garbage bins in the village, and whether they are in the proper places. Mayor Tyler Beckett asked how the Village pays for the garbage bins. “We pay the tipping fees, so the weight, as well as the rental of the bins,” said Chief Administrative Officer Rosemary Offrey. “I'm wondering if maybe we should audit the placement of the garbage bins and maybe reduce them,” said Beckett. “I don't see a reason to have, for exam-

ple, I've got four within about 250 feet of my house. If we're being billed rental fees per bin, then we might want to go through and audit those,” he said. Offrey suggested that maybe deciding to relocate the bins would be better than getting rid of bins. “We might want to reconsider putting the bins somewhere else. I know that some of the residents call frequently, (complaining) that their bins are full before it’s time to empty them,” she said. Beckett said they are dealing with issues where bins get filled with grass clippings and other yard waste, so residents are unable to get rid of their regu-

Viking Health Foundation update Submitted Awareness of what the Viking Health Foundation is doing with the donated dollars received from the public and other organizations is very important. To that end, the Foundation would like to share a letter that it received from Alberta Health Services (AHS) this summer. It says: “In the 2023-2024 fiscal year, the Viking Health Foundation made significant contributions to patient safety, care, and comfort for patients and clients receiving care in Viking and area. “Our records show your generous contributions, of $79,709.33 supported the purchasing of:

-a Panda Bedded Warmer with accessories; -Two Qube Monitors, Roll Stands, Accessories and Licences; -A Sequential Compression Device; and -An Ergonomin OR Stool in Rural Acute Care. “Through the giving of your time, your talents, and your passion, your support of healthcare services in Central Alberta makes a difference every day and is so appreciated. “We are grateful for all the ways you support patients and clients in your community. “We look forward to continuing to work together in the servvice of the health and well-being of Albertans.”

lar household waste. “One of the biggest complaints is that we are paying for garbage fees on top of our property taxes, and a lot of people are filling those bins up with grass clippings and yard waste. When people go with actual trash, they're not able to use those garbage bins,” he said. “A lot of people, in my opinion,” Offrey said, “kind of abuse the system. I think maybe going into a different year, we might want to reconsider how we do garbage pickup. “Would Council be interested in considering the container that's individual for each home?” she asked. Beckett said he would like to consider it, and requested a cost comparison. Deputy Mayor Shawn Cole asked whether the cost of the bin would be put on the individual, and Offrey said she’d have to look into it. “I'm not exactly sure on the details. I haven't checked it out, because I don't want to spend time doing something that's not going to go anywhere. I did ask Corey (Popick, Claystone Waste CEO) about it when he and Jackie (Sargent, Communication and Public Relations Advisor) came to visit in the fall, and I was asking about whether that would be an option, and he said it would definitely be an option. “I also thought that if we went to a different supply where we have the individual containers at each person's home, then we wouldn't have so much damage on our alleyways. The roads are

being damaged severely by the garbage trucks, and we can't do anything about it, as long as the bins are in the alleyways. There's a lot of savings potentially, over time, by going that way. But the other thing is, I didn't know how council would feel about going down that path, because the residents are usually just going and throwing their garbage in any bin around the village,” she said. Beckett said he doesn’t believe the current system is bad, but may be prone to abuse. “I think the people who are using it more should be paying appropriately and not forcing those who aren't using it to subsidize their cost. If you have your own garbage bins, you're not going to have your neighbour come and dump his grass clippings in your garbage bin. Well, you might, but then you’ve got another issue entirely,” Beckett said with a laugh. “Obviously,” Offrey said, “we're not doing anything for 2025. It would take conversations with Claystone, and things that have to change about our system. But I think before you seriously consider this, that you would send out a survey to the individuals in the village to see how they all feel about that,” she said. “I'd like to see what the breakdown of costs would be, going one route over the other. Just because something's been done for 50 years doesn't mean it's the best way to do it,” Beckett said.

Viking students learn fine art of curling this week

Patricia Harcourt Editor

Students from the Grade 10 physical education class at Viking School were ceremonially piped into the curling rink on Monday to kick off their week of curling lessons at the Multiplex. Beth and Emily Ratte,

who live south of Irma, piped the students onto the ice with flags waving during the ceremony. Instructor Vern Hafso said this kind of ceremony is usual to begin any bonspiel of consequence and the students were getting a touch of that as a reminder of what they could experience if their curling pro-

gresses to that level of play. Young curlers in Viking are usually given instruction in March, at the time when curling is winding down. However, the curling club was asked by the school to give the lessons at the beginning of the curling season instead. They will come every

day this week for a onehour morning practice. As well, there is a junior curling program that runs every Thursday afternoon until Christmas. Hafso joked about being the oldest curler in the club; but organizer Brian Rozmahel was quick to point out that Hafso was the most experienced

curler in Viking. The curling club kicks off its own curling season with mixed curling starting on Tuesday night of this week and anyone who wishes to join is welcome, he said. And the numbers have gone up indicating interest in the sport is picking up. “We’ve got a few new

curlers and we’re really grateful for them,” he said. “We need to keep our club going.” He added: “We have friendly competition but it’s mainly a social thing.” “They’re coming out of the woodwork” added Hafso, indicating the renewed interest in curling locally.

Snooker table made over courtesy community support program County covers half the cost of snooker table repairs at Viking Seniors Centre Patricia Harcourt The snooker table at the Viking Seniors’ Centre got a new cover last Friday, Nov. 1. The work was done by Mike Wasyliw of Mike’s Billiard Service, who travelled from Sherwood Park for the daylong job. Wasyliw said the replacement of the cloth on top of the billiard table was “just routine maintenance,” adding: “It just gets worn out over time.” He estimated the last time the table itself got an overhaul was 10 to 15 years previously but it was still in very good condition. “The county funded half the cost,” said Garry Wolosinka, past-President of the Seniors Centre, who was on hand watching the delicate process of taking off the old layer and replacing it with a new cloth. The total cost was $1,600 with 10 per cent taken off for seniors, he said. “Normally, it would be about $1,800 with travel,” said Wasyliw. And Wolosinka said the quality of the work was important in recovering a snooker table. “We have to have the proper person to do the job,” he said, adding Mike was that person. The work of ensuring the cover is on properly also involves ensuring the snooker table is level when it is being applied. “The floor shifts sometimes,” said Wasyliw. “We’ll fine tune (the levelling) if we need to.” Wolosinka credited the help of Beaver County and Division

5 Councillor Dale Pederson for getting the prompt approval for the repair after applying to the county’s September intake of its Community Support Program. The county gave the seniors centre an $880 operational grant for installation of a new pool table cover for the 6X12 snooker table “as the cloth has been ripped in a couple places, plus it is probably 30 plus years old,” stated the application. There are currently 10 regular members that use the snooker table. Also it is used when families rent the facility. “That would probably bring the user numbers up to 165 or more,” stated the application. Wolosinka is hoping to get more people interested in using the table on a regular basis. “It was just time to get something done,” he said, adding his gratitude to the county for helping to make it happen. “We’re trying to get more people into the game,” said Wolosinka, a player himself. The table itself is about 2,000 lb. in weight due to the shale topping underneath the cloth. Wasyliw was being helped by Brian Sharp who has a pool room in Wainwright and wanted to pick up some tips on repair and upkeep of these tables, of which there are two in the Viking centre. Sharp said that, because the pockets are smaller and the distance is larger,” on a snooker table, people seem to prefer the smaller billiard table. “There is very little room for error,” with snooker, he said.

Snooker table repairman Mike Wasoyliw cleans and levels off the shale which makes the 2,000 lb. table so heavy. PATRICIA HARCOURT PHOTOS

Op-ed: Victim Services redesign - all victims of crime deserve support Mike Ellis Minister of Public Safety and Emergency Services Province of Alberta

Dealing with the aftermath of a crime can be challenging for victims, and everyone’s journey to recovery is different. Alberta’s government is committed to making sure victims get the support they need, which is why we are changing how victim services currently operates to ensure every Albertan in every corner of

the province will have access to the help they need when they need it. Alberta’s government decision to overhaul the Victim Services Unit (VSU) model, with its 60 detachment-based and locally governed units, was made with careful consideration of the current challenges facing the system. A comprehensive review of the current system – one that included discussions with 150 stakeholder groups – identified inconsistencies and gaps in services that

had been developing over a long period of time and needed to be addressed. Under the old model, 14 areas had no local victim services unit, which is why the new model being implemented by Alberta’s government ensures every RCMP detachment in the province will have access to consistent victim services. That means if you were a victim of crime in a certain part of Alberta, you had no service. This was unacceptable.

Fall intake of support requests approved Patricia Harcourt Beaver County’s fall intake of community support requests were all approved except for one at the regular meeting of council in October. There were five requests approved for $2,500 each, including the Blackfoot Grazing Association for clearing and replacing fenceline; the Happy Wanderers to help with transportation costs for seniors; the Borschiw Social Guild for upgrades to the hall; the Beaverhill Bird Observatory Society for mileage and expense costs for school presentations; and, the Association for Life-Wide Living of Alberta to support the upcoming BRAIN (Battle River Arts Innovation and Neuroscience) conference. Also awarded was $3,500 as an operating grant to the Katchemut Creek Family Horse Club for insurance, equipment and building a storage shed. The Holden Municipal Library received $1,200 towards the upgrading of two computer stations. The Viking Senior Citizens Centre was granted $880 for a pool table cover. And the Cloverlodge Stampede Association received an operating grant of $8,150.27 to build back pens for their annual rodeo. And two organizations were granted funding over and above the $2,500 limit, he noted, citing Katchemut and Cloverlodge. In all the amount given out for the fall intake was $26,230.27. Ryan Arndt, general manager of corporate services, explained that all the requests meet the policy

criteria except the Bruce Hotel’s request regarding its annual car show. As the hotel is a for profit organization, it is not eligible for the community support funding, he said. The hotel had requested $1,695 to cover expenses to host their Show and Shine event. “Administration has reviewed this request ad it does not meet the policy eligibility criteria as the Bruce Hotel is not a community organization but a private for profit company,” stated Arndt. “I understand it doesn’t

fit the criteria,” said Councillor Lionel Williams (Division 2), “but I wonder if the county could somehow support that event.” And Councillor Dale Pederson (Division 5) said he “wondered if the hotel could partner with a community organization like 4H,” that would be eligible for a support request. Reeve Kevin Smook (Division 1) agreed that with that kind of scenario and partnering with a nonprofit, the car show could re-apply in time for the spring intake for next year’s car show.

Also, under the old model, each unit was operated by an independent society, which resulted in a lack of integration and resource-sharing. Under the new model, regional governance will ensure each community can draw on resources to keep their public services stable and consistent. To address these issues, we're moving towards a regional governance model with four integrated Regional Victim Serving Societies. Classification: Protected A. These regional societies will help victims by increasing the reliability, of support across the province. This means that victims will have access to stable and consistent levels of care and assistance, regardless of their location. It’s a new approach that will allow for greater flexibility to deliver services at the community level where they are needed most. With a renewed focus on the needs of victims, this approach will streamline operations, foster collaboration both within and

across regions, and ensure all Albertans have fair access to critical victim services. As well, the changes mean that the total number of frontline employees will increase from 130 to 153, and both frontline employees and local volunteer advocates will have the resources and training necessary to better serve victims in their communities. The regional societies are independent, and they make their own staffing decisions for the units in their regions. The primary goal of these changes is to ensure that victims and survivors have access to the supports they need to recover and rebuild their lives in the aftermath of a crime or tragedy. I have met with many municipalities and the Rural Municipalities of Alberta, and we have incorporated feedback into the redesign. Airdrie Mayor Peter Brown supported the redesign and said, “We look forward to working with the new team, provid-

ing the same efficient, caring & compassionate service that supports our community at their most vulnerable times.” Mayor Megan Hanson, from the Town of Sylvan Lake told me the redesign is a “Much-needed change.” She said, "Under the previous Victims Services model, staff and volunteers in Sylvan Lake tried valiantly to provide and maintain supports for victims of crime but lacked adequate supports This shift to a new model is a positive and much-needed change for our community. A regional model helps to pool resources and gives us confidence that victims in Sylvan Lake and across Alberta will receive the help they truly deserve.” Alberta’s government is taking action so every community across our province will have access to the services and support. To those who are victims of crime or tragedy, Alberta’s government will be there regardless of where you live.

Old buildings torn down to make way for development on Viking’s main street Patricia Harcourt Editor

The town is tearing down two adjacent buildings on Viking’s main street in the last few days to put them up for sale and make way for possible development projects. These buildings were formerly the Viking Sport Shop and the Viking Fabric and Framing Shop located just south of the former bank building on the last block of main street going south. “Once the tear down is complete there will be five available lots for sale on Viking’s main street for further commercial development,” stated the town’s Chief Administrative Officer Doug Lefsrud on Monday. Lefsrud also indicated that “the town currently has no plans for development,” but indicated it was “part of the idea of making main street look better.” And the move is also a way to reassure residents that “council is listening and focused on creating new opportunities on our main street.” Last spring, council had passed a motion to purchase the former Fabric and Framing shop. This was the result of the former Sport shop property being returned to the town through a voluntary land transfer process, he explained. “It’s thought by council that the properties would be more of an attraction for new development because of the 124 feet of main street frontage it provides,” he added. The town now owns the properties and the land is for sale.

Two buildings being torn down on Viking’s main street are making way for new development, according to the Town of Viking, which is putting the vacant land up for sale. Doing the work of tearing them down is Skully’s Oilfield, which will also level the site. The town’s public works department is assisting this work where needed. PATRICIA HARCOURT PHOTOS

Halloween school parade fun and spooky

This year’s Halloween Parade at the Viking School on the creepy day of October 31 was another fun and spooky time for all the participants and members of the community who came out to witness it. Many varieties of costumes were present and lots of ingenuity displayed in the costumery. There were students picked out to win different costume awards and the teachers got into the act as well, posing at the end for a group photo. It was a fun affair for all. PATRICIA HARCOURT PHOTOS
