Bruderheim council debates value of AIHA to community John Mather Staff Reporter

Bruderheim’s decision to sponsor the Alberta Industrial Heartland 2019 Annual Stakeholder event for non-profit sponsorships to the tune of $3,000 prompted a lot of discussion over the value the AIHA provides to the community. Councillor Len Falardeau was the motion’s harshest critic. “The Heartland has never done us any favours in 20 years,” he fumed. “It’s cost us millions of dollars in lost revenue to our community and at the same time they just snickered at us when it was suggested they should trying helping us a bit. “If there’s any one councilor who can tell me something they’ve brought to Bruderheim in the past 20 years, I’ll be darned surprised.” Falardeau further to say the Heartland Association wasn’t located in the Bruderheim region and he felt there were more important things to consider such as seniors transportation, the youth centre, the recreation centre where local dollars would be better spent. “They have no ties to our community. I can’t support this.” The $3,000 event, to be held in Edmonton in

January 2019, would see Bruderheim receive some prominent community advertising at the event, along with recognition on the AIHA website. A pair of tickets to the event would be included and the town would get a mention in the AIHA newsletter which has a wide industry circulation. Chief Administrative Officer Patty Podoborozny added in previous years, the town had purchased additional tickets to the event so some members of council along with some administration staff including economic development officer Doug Sullivan could attend. Deputy mayor Pat Lee, who made the supporting motion for the expenditure, argued that being a member of the AIHA, “does carry some weight.” “We are an associate member of the association and I think this sort of sponsorship improves our communications with the organization. It’s a way we get our name out to the industries that make up the organization.” “I look at this as a good dinner and handshake,” said Councillor George Campbell. “I feel we can do better by putting $3,000 in programs that are used to advertise our community and get more information out to the

More snow plagues region

Bruderheim Public Works staff spent part of Thanksgiving Monday clearing snow from the town streets. The Oct. 8 snowfall dumped several centimetres of snow on the area clogging town streets and adding to the woes of area farmers who are desperately trying to get their crops harvested. business world about our efforts to develop our community.” He added when the town had to go looking for money for local improvements it might be better if the $3,000 was available in the bank. “In this day and age we have to go out and meet those people,” said Councillor Judy Schueler. “You never know who you meet at these events sitting at your table.” She went to mention she had attended an event recently and met a councilor from a small Texan town. She mentioned where Bruderheim was and he immediately knew the location because of plants and industry nearby. “It’s about becoming and getting known to

other communities and businesses that might have projects going on which could be in our area.” “It may not seem likes there’s any value to it, but the industrial heartland is all around us,” she stated. “The decision to be a part of it was made years ago and we have to live with it. We have to move on and make the best of it.” She said she felt sponsorship was part of telling the delegates at the dinner what Bruderheim was. “If we let them know who we are, they will remember us somewhere along the line.” Councillor Wayne Olechow agreed stating, “ we keep putting small sums of money in there and one day it will pay off.”

He argued the town was constantly seeking sponsorships for local events and at the arena. “These are the company’s that can provide that sponsorship and we need to meet with them.” Campbell said he felt maybe it was time for council to change direction. We’ve been at this for a long time and I can’t honestly seen any benefit from it as far as development in our community. They simply come by and shake your hand.” “There’s nothing really positive coming out of this and positive growth means doing something in our own community,” he stated. Councillor Patrick Crawford wondered why the town had to provide sponsorship every year.

“People do know where Bruderheim is,” he said. “So if this is a leaner year budget-wise, why not just save the money and return again when there are more funds. I think sometimes we have to step back and not do something just because everyone else is doing it.” Mayor Karl Hauch stated the council had recently attended a meeting where they supported being part of the AIHA and now they were arguing against it. “One of the key things was we saw the benefit of advertising with them because of the coverage we received,” he said. In a narrow four to three vote, the motion for support carried, with Falardeau, Campbell, and Crawford voting no.

Lamont welcomes new doctor Ebele Mgbor to town Maureen Sullivan Staff Reporter

Lamont Health Care Centre welcomes a new doctor to town, Dr. Ebele Mgbor. She and her husband Ebere are also new residents in town and setting down roots. They bought a home in Lamont at the end of August. Taking over Dr. John Slaina's practice, Mgbor is now open for business. Once her practice is up and running in Lamont, she will being spending one day a week in the Bruderheim clinic. Dr. Mgbor runs a family practice with a special interest in mental health and women's health issues of all kinds, like lifestyle changes and preventative care. She practiced in Calgary for a year and a half before coming to Lamont. "I am a simple person

and like to get along with people. I enjoy family practice because itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a specialty where you can know your patients and your patients can know you. I don't like that detached stance where your vision is so far away, I like the kind of practice where you can get to know your patients and you can build a foundation," Mgbor said of herself. Originally from Nigeria, where she practiced for 10 years, she came to Canada because of the shortage in family doctors and looking for a new challenge. When asked about the difference in weather from Nigeria to here she stated with a laugh, "Nothing can prepare you for the winters here. I have been to Europe and the UK many times and seen snow, so how bad could

it be? I was wrong. But people can adapt and nobody has died, so I should be ok." In her down time, Mgbor says she loves to swim and loves to dance, recreationally, aerobically, and just for fun. She is looking forward to learning how to ski cross country saying, "It looks like fun." The residents of Lamont have been welcoming and supportive and Mgbor has nothing but praise for the them and the staff at the hospital. Mgbor and her husband, who works at the ATB, look forward to spending many years here in Lamont.

Lamont ATB branch celebrates 80 years Maureen Sullivan Staff Reporter

The staff at Lamont's ATB branch celebrated the bankâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 80th birthday on Sept. 28 by serving its customers homemade perogies and cake. In 2017, ATB was named the second best workplace in all of Canada by Great Place to Work. In 2015, ATB was named one of Alberta's Top Employers by Mediacorp Canada Inc and ranked fourth of Canada's Top 50 Best Workplaces, Large and

Multinational in 2016. ATB was created by the first Social Credit government of Premier William Aberhart on September 29, 1938, after earlier attempts to impose government control over banks operating in Alberta were thwarted by the federal government. The first Alberta Treasury Branch was opened in Rocky Mountain House on Sept. 29 of that year. ATB is the most significant surviving remnant of social credit economic policies in Alberta.

Chipman-area resident still hopes to halt marijuana development John Mather Staff Reporter

A Chipman area resident is still riled by a proposed marijuana green house proposed for right across the road from her farm, but is having trouble in fighting the development. At one point last week, Shelagh Pastoor thought a development permit had been approved for the GAIA BioPharmaceuticals proposal on Range Road 183, but now she’s not so sure. “I’m not going in front of council at this time because there’s no need to,” she said. “I have an email from the county going to council will do nothing for me right now.” She said council wouldn’t make any decisions until it goes through the development board process. Pastoor said she has a file she plans to submit

to the development appeal board. “I have people complaining about how the lights and other factors will affect them,” she said. “If the development is approved, we have 14 days to appeal.” She said she will have a stack of material submitted prior to the October 15 deadline or filing submissions to the board. “I’m going door to door getting petitions signed to oppose the development,” she said. She said there will be two petitions, one for outlying residents and one for residents directly affected by the proposal are being circulated. Pastoor organized a meeting of neighbours at her home, Sept. 29, and development principals James and Mandy Kilpatrick came to explain what they proposed for the area. A development permit application has been

received by Lamont County from Gaia Bio Pharmaceuticals to build a 100 X 105 foot building to grow medical marijuana on a 32.37 ha parcel within the NW-34-53-18W4. The owner of the property, Kenneth Ehry, is one of the shareholders in the proposed operation,

along with the Kilpatricks. Pastoor says since her meeting, she has not had any further communications with the owners. She adds she has talked to about 30 to 40 landowners in the area and claims the vast majority don’t want the development to go

ahead in their area, but feel it should be put up in an area zoned for light industry, rather being constructed on class 2 farmland. Pastoor claims the County has spent money promoting its industrial area and she feels that’s where this development should be located.

“They’ve advertised stating they’re willing to help get land in the industrial area, so that’s where this project should go,” she said. She adds she has contacted a lawyer to help her line up her paperwork prior to the deadline for the development board.

Lamont’s ATB branch celebrated ATB Financial’s 80th year in business on Sept. 28. Perogies and cake were served to customers who stopped by that day.

Opinion Chicago Marathon my kind of race On Sunday we were at the Chicago Marathon, one of a handful of major marathons in the entire world. My wife is a runner, and her finishing times in other marathons allowed her to qualify. It's something she has been working hard at for many years now, and it is quite a marvel of willpower. There are almost 10 million people in Greater Chicago, and its airport, O'Hare, is larger than most municipalities in Alberta at over 7,600 acres. The land mass containing Chicago is over 28,000 square kms. So yeah, it's big. It's also intimidating when you are from a nice quiet Alberta town and suddenly plunged into one of the largest cities in the United States. The weekend before we came, there were eight murders in Chicago. Of course Chicago has a history of crime, and we were excited to take the Untouchables Gangster Tour while there. The guides took us on a historical trek of the comings and goings of people like Al Capone and drove us past the site of the St. Valentine's Day Massacre. Somehow they wove humour into these criminal tales, which made it so much fun. On race day, we followed the masses to Grant Park where runners from all over the world found their corrals and checked in. Non-runners like me, escorted their spouses to the race site which was quite a walk in itself. All in all there were hundreds of thousands of people along the route cheering wildly for the 45,000 strangers running in the race. As is the case in today's screwed up world, the police presence was immense. Chicago Police, the US Military, Homeland Security, helicopters, cars, and bicycle cops were all there protecting everyone. It was a bit worrisome the Friday before as police in Chicago have been lambasted due to an unpleasant incident where one officer unnecessarily killed a black teen and was convicted of second degree murder. A not guilty verdict would have blown Chi-town apart with racial divide and riots would have taken over the race. Luckily that didn't happen because The Chicago Marathon is all about racial harmony, gender equality and cross-cultural friendships. Racers love one another and are incredibly encouraging. Only they can truly understand the hardships they put themselves through to accomplish their goals in this very solitary endeavour. That part of marathoning never changes no matter where the location. We were in Chicago for just five days, and a visitor would have to spend a full month there to do most everything available in the giant city, but we managed to do a few things like; eat Lou's Chicago deep dish pizza, drop in at Harry Caray's, and sightseeing the skyscrapers like Sears and Trump towers while on our architecture riverboat tour. As always our American friends could not have been nicer to the Canadian tourists, but the country bumpkins always look most forward to coming back home to Canada - where the weather is always warm and the flowers and crops are perky and lush.

Mundare asks local business to hold expansion plans John Mather Staff Reporter

Mundare council wants to help a local entrepreneur be successful in his local business, but they’re asking he wait to improve his project until after a new land use by-law is approved. Jagger Glowatsky opened a used RV parts store earlier this year on highway 15, just south of the railway track in town. Appearing before council, Oct. 2, he outlined his plans for making his business more compliant. “When I opened, we got so busy I had to hire additional employees and began stripping trailers right on site,” Glowatsky explained. “As you know, it became a total mess and I had literally no time to clean it up.” By stripping the trailers on site Glowatsky ran afoul of the town

land use by-law that states he could retail used trailer parts, but couldn’t store gutted trailers or RVs on the site. “Our plan is to build a shop on neighbouring property,” he said. “The plan is to move the trailers or RV inside the shop and strip them.” He added he’d acquired a piece of property north of Mundare in Lamont County where he would store the stripped units until they could be disposed of. He said no one would see the operation because it would be inside and the outside of the property would be clean. He added, since business has slowed for the season, he has cleaned up the mess that was created outside his existing store. “The only vehicles you’ll see will be RVs that may be for sale,” he

told council. Glowatsky came prepared with detailed plans of what he wanted to build and neighbours who planned to sell him land were in attendance to lend support. Mayor Mike Saric asked why Glowatsky wouldn’t strip the trailers and RVs on the land outside of town. Glowatsky replied he would then have to transport the parts to the store in Mundare. With the new shop right next door to his existing shop, he can quickly strip the vehicle put the parts on racks for sale, and then haul the hulks out to the storage property. “I think our concern was the mess,” said Councillor Irene Tallaga. “I get your concerns 100 per cent,” said Glowatsky. “Now that RV season has ended, we’ve cleaned it up.” Councillor Jason

Kowal said he supported the development. “It’s hard getting business coming into the town so I think we should support this.” CAO Colin Zyla said right now the shop wouldn’t be zoned correctly because highway commercial doesn’t allow for salvage operations. “We’re in the process of changing the land use by-law so we could modify the zoning.” Zyla added that process could take several months, which would hold Glowatsky up. Saric said council could take a hard look at the impact of business such as Glowatsky’s. “We need to take a bigger picture look,” he said. “If Glowatsky isn’t in a mad panic, I’d like to see this move forward.” Zyla added the eco-

nomic development officer was aware of the project, and Saric suggested a couple of months should be enough time. “She works for us and we can tell her to move on this,” he said. Glowatsky said the call for RV repair was huge and while the original permitting wasn’t for salvage, which has happened, “we have to know whether we would be approved for salvage down the road.” Saric agreed it was a legitimate concern. Glowatsky said he’d like to get his shop built as soon as possible because the demand for his type of business is

high. “I understand where you guys are coming from,” he said. Council commended him for cleaning the property up and agreed he was doing his best to be a good development in the community. He added much of his business was coming from Edmonton, Fort Saskatchewan, and Sherwood Park, so he was bringing business into the community. Council did see the benefit of the business bringing people to town. No decision was made on the project as both sides agreed to wait for the new land use by-law to be adopted.

Town of Bruderheim adopts new three-year strategic plan John Mather Staff Reporter

Bruderheim Council passed its’ three-year strategic plan at the Oct. 3 council meeting. The plan outlines four guiding priorities, which the town hopes to follow to encourage development and growth in the community. “The Town of Bruderheim is a vibrant, dynamic, safe, and caring community,” the plan states in its opening preamble, “where the quality of life is second to none and diverse opportunities for people of all ages, backgrounds, and cultures abound.” Councillor George Campbell wondered if there was a method that allowed council to monitor the progress of the strategic plan. CAO Patty Podoborozny said administration would give regular updates back to council on how the town was doing and how closely they were aligning with the plan. “These plans are pretty general,” said Podoborozny, “But amendments can be made to it at any time.” Mayor Karl Hauch asked for an amendment to the plan in the first priority statement dealing with a sustainable and balanced economy. The key result of this priority as stated in the plan was, “an economic development strategy inclusive of business attraction and retention; the attraction of a developer to build commercial and retail space; a shop local campaign and strategy; and a business revitalization strategy. Hauch’s amendment was to add industrial to “the attraction of a developer to build commercial and retail space.” He argued that would allow a wider scope in the plan for development. Council agreed and the amendment was added to the plan. Other priorities for the plan, which is available publically on the town’s website are “a sustainable and safe infrastructure;” “a healthy, vibrant community;” and “Open and transparent governance and administration.” The 2108 priorities for council and administration under the strategic plan are to focus on: land zoning; addressing any drug problems; compost bins; community engagement and education; bylaw enforcement; safety; seniors’ housing and all groups working together. The three-year plan as amended was passed unanimously. •••

Mayor Karl Hauch commented on the success of the town at the recent Communities in Bloom Awards where it received five blooms and was awarded an outstanding achievement award for the Municipal World Winterlife Award for it’s winter programming. “It’s a great organization to be a part of and we’re blessed we have such a great community that gets behind this initiative.” “We came within an eyelash of winning the top prize for communities of our size, so we know we’re moving in the right direction. “ He said there had been many positive comments from residents about how great the town had looked during the summer. Hauch adds the Communities in Bloom is international so there were communities from Spain, Italy, and Ireland at the awards and “they heard about Bruderheim.” “That helps get the word out about our community and that’s a big plus.” ••• Councillor Len Falardeau took exception to a request that $29,000 be transferred from reserves to cover the cost of a pre-design report outlining the town’s water requirements for the upcoming grant deadlines which falls on Nov. 30. CAO Podoborozny said the study was for the town’s water and reservoir upgrades. “She said an in-depth look was needed to determine any upgrades for the pumping stations and repairs to the reservoir.” She said without the information derived from the report, administration wouldn’t be able to properly apply for any grant funding. “The timing of this throws me,” said Falardeau. “We just had some budget meetings and this should have come up them. “Further this is an incredible amount of money to be spending on a report,” he fumed. “We should be looking at changing our engineering company if this what they’re charging. “I realize we have to have this by Nov. 30, but we should have been informed of this long ago. It shouldn’t just be coming to council now.” Podoborozny said some of the grants that are available had only been announced during the week and that’s why the town was lining up to make sure they were ready to apply. Councillor Campbell wondered whether the report would consider any future development and Podoborozny said it would only look at existing infrastructure.

Multiple overdoses and death linked to Fentanyl over weekend Lloydminster RCMP have responded to multiple incidents of drug overdose this weekend. One death believed to be caused as a resulting overdose. Three other drug users were taken to hospital this Thanksgiving long weekend. Lloydminster RCMP are concerned that these incidents are results of suspected mixes of cocaine and fentanyl. RCMP warn the public about the dangers of fentanyl that may be circulating in Lloydminster, after the one individual died, two others were found unresponsive and transported to area hospital, and the third was conscious displaying signs of medical distress also treated at hospital. While investigators suspect the death could be due to a drug overdose, RCMP are working with the Office of Chief Medical Examiner to determine

the exact cause of death. RCMP are warning the public of the dangers of consuming illicit street drugs that could potentially contain a mix of substances, including fentanyl. “Quality control is not generally something these criminal drug dealers are worried about,” Says Cst. Patrick Lambert, “drug dealing is a criminal enterprise, it exists to make money and profit. They are not concerned with the outcomes of cross contamination between drugs, as sometimes this is done intentionally.” Fentanyl is a powerful synthetic opiod drug that is approximately 80-100 times more toxic than morphine and 40 times more toxic than heroin. It is commonly used as an anaesthetic in hospitals for surgery, or as a transdermal patch in extreme examples of pain management.

Bruderheim Community Breakfast Cafe going strong

Correction On September 12, in the article â&#x20AC;&#x153;Grand Opening of Garden at Lamont Health Care Centre,â&#x20AC;? we incorrectly identified Carmen Palahniuk as the Director of the LHCC recreation department, she is a staff member there. The actual raised garden was built by the

LHCC carpenter and maintenance man Randy Jonker, RDP construction took care of the concrete not the raised garden itself. The garden was made possible by the generous donations and help of many different individuals as well. -Lamont Leader staff

GET AHEAD OF WINTER WITH THIS SPOOKTACULAR SPECIAL!! Cafe volunteers Jana Semeniuk, Judy Koschada, and customer Janice Bisch at the Bruderheim Breakfast Cafe

Maureen Sullivan Staff Reporter

The citizens of Bruderheim have been enjoying a breakfast for a cause every Friday morning since it opened July 27, at the Motel 6. The cafe, which is open from 6 to 8:30 a.m. every Friday, has been staffed by volunteers since the beginning, with profits from the project going to help fund community groups. With the space generously being provided by the motel and the steady and consistent patronage of townsfolk, there is soon going to be the first donation of cash to a community group. Not content to rest on their success, the group is brainstorming ideas to get even more people in the doors. "We hope to appeal to families, and have them stop in on Friday mornings to eat together before heading to school and work," said Jana Semeniuk. "We had a lady stop in today to pick up breakfast for her grandkids, who she is watching today," Semeniuk continued. The rest of October will feature pumpkin flavored items on the menu, as well as a breakfast special each week. The special this Friday was sausage on biscuits with gravy and fresh tomatoes for $6.

Member missing in photo are Lieutenant Tracy Lupul, Firefighter Blake Kucher, Firefighter Chris Howell, Firefighter Jason Mierau, and Junior Member Austin Fillion.

Andrew Fire Members are a small group of individuals who are dedicated not only to responding to emergencies but being involved in the community, with their annual pancake breakfast, helping the school and community center with the purchase of an AED, being involved in local events such as Canada Day, the Terry Fox Run and the Annual Garlic Fest, where they had a Fire Smart presentation for local community. The completion of highway signs is a

huge highlight, where the hard work of the brigade members and the support of the community made this goal achievable. The department continues to move forward with training, having one member complete the 1001 program recently. 2019 looks promising as well with another 1001 course scheduled to start early next year, they hope to send a few more members, and look forward to continuing their involvement in the community.

Fire Prevention Week Mundare Fire Department covering the area for over 100 years For more than 100 years, Mundare’s Fire Department has been active protecting the area residents from danger. The department has about 25 members and these volunteers cover a large swath of Lamont County. “We cover from the eastern border of the County over to Hilliard, and then we go north to about Township Road 552 and south of Highway 16 to the southern boundary of the county,” explains Fire Chief Glenda Dales. She has been chief since 1999, and has 32 years of service with the department. “We have quite a few members with more than 30 years of continuous service.” Dales reports the biggest area of activity for the department is dealing with motor vehicles accidents. “Because we have Highway 15, 855, and 16, and then some of 29, we respond to a lot of motor

vehicle incidents.” She adds all the members are trained Medical Fire Responders (MFRs) and “that would be our secondary largest response area.” She adds machinery and grass fires can also keep the department busy. “It was a pretty quiet spring for the Mundare Department in the wildfire area this spring,” she said, but adds the department was involved in helping with road closures during the spring flooding, which occurred throughout the county. The department meets on Tuesdays for ongoing training and maintaining their sharp edge. In addition, Dales adds, they train with the main Lamont Department at every chance they get. “It is a County regional service, so whenever there’s an opportunity to train together, we participate. “Any opportunity for

joint training, we try to get as many members out as possible.” The department is very involved in the community. “We help out with Agridaze and we help the church with their function in June. Anywhere when there’s a function in the community we try to help out.” The community wide garage sale and Santa Claus parade are other events where people can meet their firefighters. The department puts on a quiet social event for the firefighters and spouses at an “impromptu, fun filled night” usually in January. Dales remains a fire chief in the County because the Mundare Department had a fire chief prior to the regionalization of the department into the County system. The department has one fire engine, one rescue vehicle, and a water tender to keep its area residents safe.

Fire Prevention Week Bruderheim’s Livestock Rescue unit offers unique service to Lamont County John Mather Staff Reporter

With a larger space than other fire departments in Lamont County, the Bruderheim Fire Department is home to a unique piece of rescue gear. The Lamont County Livestock Rescue unit is one of 16 such rescue units in Alberta. “The Livestock rescue trailer is a large piece of equipment,” said County Fire Chief, David Zayonce. “Bruderheim is the detachment with the most space in the County, so we store it there.” Zayonce states while the Bruderheim fire department does have firefighters trained to use the unit, “it is our intention to have all our County firefighters trained on the unit and that is something we’re developing right now.” He said over the winter and spring, different

sessions will be held to fully train the County firefighting staff. He added they will then branch out to provide training for neighbouring jurisdictions in supporting use of the livestock unit. “Back in the day it was provincial funding, which got the trailers up and running with the knowledge it would be used in other counties such as Beaver, Strathcona, Minburn, and Sturgeon,” said Zayonce. He pointed out the unit was brought into service earlier this year when some horses escaped their pens in Sturgeon county and were posing a hazard on area roads. “We sent up a team and they set up the corals and gathered up the horses and we were able to quickly reduce the hazard to public safety.” He adds future training plans include having the County public works

staff and ag service people to trained in the use of the equipment. Zayonce states the Bruderheim Fire Department is one of the larger departments in the County. For equipment they have a pumper, an engine, and fast attack unit. There is also a tanker and rescue truck to go with the livestock trailer. The chief admits all County firefighters are trained the same way in flammable liquids or pressurized gas fires. That way, he adds, Chipman or Andrew firefighters could get called into industrial situations with the same training as the Bruderheim or Lamont firefighters have. He states Lamont County has a mutual aid agreement with Strathcona County in dealing with any industrial situations which might occur at plants in the Alberta Industrial Heartland. “We’re part of the

NRCAER group,” he said. “If any of those plants required our assistance, we would respond. In addition, we’ve had Strathcona firefighters respond helping us.” He said the Bruderheim wildfire of this spring were a good example of this as both Strathcona and Bruderheim firefighters fought side by side crossing municipal boundaries with ease as they fought the stubborn brush fire. “We have a phenomenal relationship with Strathcona County,” proclaims Zayonce. “And we have good relationships with the plants in the area.” In the spring fires, Zayonce admits, the livestock unit wasn’t used, but it was put at the ready if any farms had livestock, which may have had to be moved. “We always pay attention to that because animals under duress due

to a fire can cause damage to themselves and pose a hazard for firefighters.” He adds the unit could also be used to rescue wildlife in certain situations. “If, say, a deer was to fall through the ice, we would use the unit the help rescue it.” He adds when the unit is brought out, local animal and wildlife welfare agencies are called so they can be aware of what’s going on and can provide information on how to safely handle the animals and what to do with them once they are rescued. “We have a resources list including veterinarians to help us provide proper assessment. Or training teaches our firefighters about dealing with wildlife including cleaning up after a wildfire in case they’ve come into contact with something like woodland ticks. There’s a big component in our training about being aware of

wildlife,” said Zayonce. “If we’re up in the Skaro area, there are bears in that area. We have to make sure our firefighters are aware of what wildlife may be in the area and how to work around it. “Meeting a moose at a wildfire, well the moose may not be a friendly animal, and the firefighters have to know how to deal handle the situation. “Whether it’s highway accident, barn fire, flood, or other incident, this trailer is a great tool,” said Zayonce. “It features the jaws of life, panels which can quickly be erected for pens, tarps, and ropes – all items needed for the containment of livestock.” In addition, it also has a full range of rescue equipment. Housed at the Bruderheim fire hall, the unit has been part of the County emergency preparedness system since 2014.

Fire Prevention Week An eventful year for Lamont County fire departments Maureen Sullivan Staff Reporter

It has been a year of success for the Lamont County Fire Departments, made up of volunteers the five departments pulled together to handle the Wildfire back in May of 2018. The members of Andrew, Mundare, Chipman, Lamont, and Bruderheim along with the firefighters from Strathcona and Fort Saskatchewan spent a week fighting the fires just north of Bruderheim successfully. Of course not all members were at the wildfire itself. There is a careful balancing act, according to Lamont County Fire Chief David Zayonce, members have to be held in reserve to cover other fires if they occur. Replacements have to be ready to take over for firefighters who fought all day, and others handled areas where the wind caused spot fires to occur. Zayonce said of his team, "It was a pretty huge event, based on what we were faced with our personnel …our people did fantastic." The five departments are made up of volunteers, who can be called or sent a text to respond to an emergency at any time of the day or night.

It is a great second career, according to Zayonce, but most of the members have other jobs. The members of the fire department usually train once a week to be ready for any emergency from fighting fires, responding to medical emergencies or accidents. A large section of Hwy 16 from Mundare to Elk Island National Park is part of the service area the fire departments cover. "We are here to provide a service, but if we don't have to that is even better," says Zayonce. The fire department in conjunction with the county agriculture department did a risk assessment for the livestock in the county and now have an emergency plan for flooding, extreme weather, hazardous material or chemical spills, fire and drought, along with a trailer and a booklet for all farmers with guidelines for the moving of animals in an emergency. The plan is to have as many firefighters trained in the livestock emergency preparedness, along with members from public works so that there is always a small group available to handle an emergency. "I am very proud of the pamphlet we devel-

oped for Livestock E m e r g e n c y Preparedness, it is appealing and easy to navigate through, with a lot of information and resources to look up more information. It is our way of doing more for our community," said Zayonce. This year 14 members of the department graduated from a locally prepared 1011-2, Firefighter Preparedness Program. They can then write a provincial exam and be certified. This will give the firefighters the same certification as every other firefighter in North America. The course developed by the Lamont County Fire Department, with it's own materials and trainers, was so successful that the departments plan to run it again in January. Fire Chief Zayonce said all five of the departments are putting special emphasis on being Fire Smart ready this year, focusing on community education with "Firesmart: Begins at Home. “ "It is important to know the basics of being prepared in case of a fire.

Today's homes are filled with synthetic material, in the couch and in the tables and burn at an accelerated pace." Here are some of the most important things to remember according to Zayonce. The most important and easiest way to keep a family safe in an emergency is by making sure the smoke detector works. It literally saves lives. Have an escape plan from the house with at least two different routes. If one way is blocked by fire, know an alternate route to exit the house. It is equally important have a meeting place once out of the house, believing someone is still in the house is the number one reason adults will go back into a burning building. It is always good to have an extinguisher on hand, but know what you can handle. It is better to get everyone out of the house and call 911 then to get trapped in a fire. As Christmas approaches, remember live trees must be kept in water. Check the cords on Christmas lights and replace anything with a

Poppy campaign begins in Lamont County John Mather Staff Reporter

Fort Saskatchewan Legion representatives will be in Bruderheim and Lamont later this week selling wreaths and crosses marking the start of the annual poppy campaign. “Bruderheim and Lamont are in our local Legion district,” said Dennis Gollinger, campaign chairman for the 2018 poppy fund. “We also look after veterans in both communities.” Gollinger adds wreaths sales take place in both towns. “We have some volunteers looking after wreath sales in Bruderheim and we’ll have some volunteers out in Lamont either this week or next.” He adds poppy box sales, where people can donate and receive a small poppy to wear on

their lapel, won’t start until October 26. “Poppies are given to all the school kids in the area and we just have to confirm how many poppies are needed.” He said during the wreath campaign, the schools will be called upon to find out how many poppies they would need or they can contact the Fort Saskatchewan Legion and give the staff there a number. “We haven’t had a specific poppy day in either town for a while,” adds Gollinger. “Because we don’t have many volunteers. If any people would like to spend a few hours in a grocery store or business selling poppies, please give me call.” If anyone can volunteer to help with the poppy campaign in Bruderheim or Lamont they can contact

Blanket Alberta Ads take approximately 10 days to process

Gollinger at 780-9141364. The poppy is worn each fall in Canada to honour those who sacrificed their lives in war for this country. Proceeds from the fundraising, nationwide, are used to support Veterans and their families. Further information on how veterans are supported through various programs and services can be found at the Royal Canadian Legion’s website,www.legion.ca The Fort Saskatchewan will also host its annual Remembrance Day service on Nov. 11 with a parade beginning at 10:40 a.m. Marchers will move to the cenotaph where two minutes of silence will be observed at 11.a.m. A service will follow inside the Normandy Room at the Legion Hall.

Do you have skills? Want to share them with the next generation? Maureen Sullivan Staff Reporter

Lamont Elementary is taking a different approach to the health curriculum this year in an attempt to offer students to experience wellness activities and more opportunities to connect to the community. Do you know about nutrition and healthy cooking? How about relationships and social skills including conflict resolution, friendship skills, and managing feelings? Do you have safety skills for water, trampoline, ATV, farm, sun, bike, pedestrian, internet, household, chemicals, or basic first aid? Do you know how to create lifelong learners and the skills you need for organization, study skills, learning new skills, growth mindset, digital citizenship? What about mental health, practicing mindful art,

gratitude journals and cards, positive mental health, stress busters, and meditation? Can you talk about volunteerism or career exploration, or maybe your skills are more physical like ball games, cooperative games, zumba, dance, self defense, fitness circuits, scavenger hunts, or the amazing race? The school has scheduled one afternoon per month when students will rotate through sessions and workshops in a conference style format. The activities and presentations will be guided by the Alberta Education Program of Studies for Health but the material will be offered in new ways to students including hands on activities, guest presenters, unique physical activity sessions and volunteer opportunities in the community. Session topics are wide ranging and may include

cooking/nutrition, line dancing, fire safety, survival first aid, home alone safety, and positive mental health. The organizers of the Health Days are putting out a request for community involvement. Community members who are willing to share their knowledge and skills is what makes this type of learning most effective. The school is open to hearing about new ideas for workshops and sessions that you may have and are encouraging local people to facilitate sessions for the afternoon. The next two health days are scheduled for Thursday, Oct. 18 and Nov. 27. If you are interested helping out with a presentation or activity please contact jessica.sereda@eips.ca or judy.anderson@eips.ca by email or call the school at 780-895-2269.

Bringing stories to life at local schools Maureen Sullivan Staff Reporter

The students at Lamont County have been enjoying a week of stories during Read in Week Oct. 1 to 5. This year the theme of the week was “Bringing Stories to Life.” Just because a book is finished, doesn't mean the story can't continue on. Students were encouraged to expand on the stories they love by acting them out, making props, or telling their own stories. Right: Elder Wilson visited Andrew School to tell stories about kindness during Bringing Stories to Life week
