Moving begins for Lamont Agricultural Society volunteers Michelle Pinon Editor

Volunteers are preparing to load panels from the rodeo ring onto this flatbed trailer Saturday , Sept. 27 at the recreational grounds in Lamont. Volunteers will be removing all of the panels, chutes, grandstand, bleachers, and barns in the coming weeks.

Volunteers began the process of removing panels from the rodeo ring at the Lamont r ecreational grounds on a dreary and chilly Saturday morning.

Despite the covering of gray clouds, there were a few bright spots. One of the bright spots has been the support the Lamont & District Agricultural Society has r eceived since town council decided to bring to an end the agreement the two parties had held since August of 2013.

“We’re getting a lot of support from the community,” confirmed Aaron Wick, President of the Lamont & District Agricultural Society.

“A local company offered to move the equipment pro bono,” added Wick, who has had other of fers of support since news of the

split was made public three weeks ago.

“My phone has been ringing off the hook,” said Wick, who is actively looking for a new home for the r odeo grounds. “Our main goal is to obtain land.”

Wick said they ar e looking for a venue that will not only accommodate rodeo events, but other types of events and different user gr oups.

Versatility and potential to expand as well as the ability to be self sustainable are just some of things he and other volunteers are keeping top of mind.

So while starting over is not the easiest thing, having a fr esh start will allow the ag. society to chart their own course, and Wick said there is no doubt they will be around to celebrate the ag. society’s 100th birthday in 2018.

Thirtyfour years later his Marathona of Hope continues in 30 countries around the world.

Lamont Elementary is one of 8,000 schools in Canada who participate in the run annually.

ATCO and Petrogas announce joint salt cavern storage project Partnership will provide important link for customers in Alberta’s Industrial Heartland Michelle Pinon Editor

A new salt caverns storage pr oject near Fort Saskatchewan is expected to fill a growing niche market.

“It really is a gem for Alberta’s Industrial Heartland,” stated Patrick Cr eaghan, President of ATCO Energy Solutions, during a telephone interview on Thursday, Sept. 25.

Creaghan said the company was glad to be a part of the growth in the industrial heartland, and to offer more of an integrated solution to customers for storage, transportation, and distribution of Natural Gas Liquids (NGL).

The formal announcement was made public on Tuesday, Sept. 23rd. “The location and in-service date of this storage facility have been strategically selected to help customers solve the logistical challenges that restrict moving NGL to market. ATCO has alr eady seen a tremendous response to this pr oject, and will work with customers to explore additional hydrocarbon storage capacity in this key gr owth area,” pointed out Creaghan.

The storage facility will be connected to Petr ogas’ existing Fort Saskatchewan hydr ocarbon truck and rail terminal that curr ently receives and distributes multiple products to the marketplace. The pr oject, in partnership with Petr ogas Energy Corp., includes the development of four salt caverns, with the capacity to stor e approximately 400,000 cubic metr es of propane, butane and ethylene to pr ovide the NGL market in western Canada with a new alternative for hydrocarbon storage. The facility will be located at ATCO’s Heartland Ener gy Centre near Fort Saskatchewan.

Technically, the 13 hectare (32 acre) site is located in Strathcona County, and there is potential for expansion and to build mor e infrastructure in terms of pipelines, pumping stations and ponds. Cr eaghan said they ar e in the pr ocess of hiring a number of operators for the pr oject, estimating a staf f of 12-15 employees on site.

Stan Owerko, Pr esident and Chief Executive Officer of the Petrogras Energy Corp., said that, “This development will pr ovide a unique market option and establish enhance storage services to Alberta’s Industrial Heartland. The Petrogas terminal is undergoing expansion to accommodate this storage initiative and provide additional throughput and distribution capacity. This project will support the movement of increasing volumes of Western Canadian LPG production to traditional North American markets as well as key international export markets thr ough Petrogas’ West Coast LPG export terminal at Ferndale, WA.” According to Cr eaghan, cavern drilling and long lead procurement is currently underway for the facility that will be built and operated by ATCO Energy Solutions. Commercial operation for two caverns is targeted for the second quarter of 2016 and will of fer additional product storage and handling services to meet market demands. T wo additional caverns ar e anticipated to be completed by the second quarter of 2017.

Town of Lamont’s ALERT System becomes operational Submitted by the Town of Lamont

The Town of Lamont is excited to announce that the Town’s Alert System is now up and running.

This system will allow residents to receive notification of emer gency events or information about things that will affect their daily routine.

When residents sign up for the alerts, they choose which type of notification they wish to receive and the method that is most likely to reach them.

The link to the system is on the Town’s website www.lamont.ca. Click on the Alert System link and then click on the link that is in the information sheet which will take residents to the Member Portal to sign up. Sign up is easy and fr ee and once you have signed up, you won’t have to go back into the system unless you need to change your contact information or your preferences.

This is our best way of mass notification in the event of an emer gency.

The messages can be sent to everyone in town or if an incident is geographically specific, they can be sent to the r esidents in a specific ar ea.

This gives our Emergency Management team and Fir e Department a powerful tool to get the wor d out in a hurry to a gr eat number of people.

It also pr ovides the Public Works staff to notify people about snow clearing, water line breaks, etc.

But, in order to receive the messages you must register. While we all

hope we will never have to use it and we all think it will never happen here, we know things happen that ar e unexpected and being made aware of a situation can help people make informed decisions.

Sign up today to ensure you receive information that could have an impact on you and your family.

If you have any questions about the system or how to sign up, contact Elaine Milliken at the town office (780) 8952010.

Concession available: Coffee, Tea, Soft Drinks

Opinion

From Where I Sit: A Day Off

By Hazel Anaka Most people I know are busy. But per haps that’s an understatement. I don’t mean the occasional hectic burst of activity, I mean going full tilt day after day . By busy I mean trying to juggle multiple compet-

directed for maximum results and calm. In fact, most of us spend a lot of time putting out fires.

Among the older set this isn’t exactly what we were promised. We were led to believe that life slows down and fighting boredom might be our biggest problem. The day would begin with a leisurely coffee taken on the patio with bir ds singing and flowers blooming. Next would be deciding between a day on the links or lunching with the girls at a fancy r estaurant.

Throwing pottery, taking up painting, writing one’s memoir, restoring the ‘70s muscle car ,

ing items on the calendar most days. I mean tearing from one event to another just putting in an appearance. Or having to decline other invitations altogether.

Another manifestation of this state of hyperactivity is the gr owing list of delayed pr ojects.

Tasks that might fall into M. Scott Peck’s second quadrant called Important /Not Ur gent.

Other quadrants ar e Important/Urgent, Not Important/Urgent and Not Important/Not Urgent. He believed that if we sorted our tasks into one of these four areas our time and ef fort would be pr operly

know are busier than ever. So when I stopped one Saturday to ‘catch up’ at home I was surprised at how long the little routine (yet important) things take.

Flipping the mattr ess and washing mattr ess and pillow covers, coverlet and blanket took time but were necessary.

Refilling the bathr oom storage cupboard with toilet paper fr om the industrial sized package in the basement took time.

Finding an unopened and unpaid (!)

Master Card bill on the table made me sick.

Chucking out expir ed food; watering the houseplants; washing

learning a second language would be our reality. Evening would come with us cooking a gourmet meal and savouring a glass of wine.

There would also be time and ener gy to babysit the grandkids, assist elderly par ents, and volunteer at the soup kitchen. Our days would be our own to schedule and cherish. No more working for ‘the man’ or punching a time card. The daily demands of work and child r earing would be over.

Bull.

Other than a few deadbeats who’ve never br oken a sweat in their entire lives most people I

load after load of laundry; putting a r oast in the slow cooker...

Then it hit me. If I didn’t pay attention I would miss the changing of the seasons, the last of the flowers, the changing of the leaves.

God only knows when we’ll repaint the garage doors, re-mulch the flowerbeds, or get the backsplash tiled. Or spend the day with Grady. I get that it’s important to stay mentally and physically active but come on; a day off occasionally would be great, from where I sit.

Letter to the Editor: Pharmaceutical Care Update Dear editor, Since 2003, I have received responses from Senior Alberta Health & Wellness Officials: Former Health &W ellness MInisters, Iris Evans and Dave Hancock (later , Interim Premier of Alberta, 2014) and Deputy Health Minister Marcia Nelson.

In 2006, Iris Evans states; "The Government of Alberta recognizes the value of prescription drugs in preventing and tr eating disease, and is committed to providing Albertans with access to the medications they need..."

During the time of the 2004 National Health Accord, and the National Pharmaceutical Strategy (2004-2009), the then Minister Dave Hancock, writes: "The First Ministers are in agr eement that no Canadian should suf fer undue financial hardship in accessing needed drug therapies, and that af fordable access to dr ugs is funda-

mental to equitable health outcomes for all Canadians."

But, according to Alberta Deputy Health Minister , Marcia Nelson, the Harper Conservative Federal Government unilaterally withdrew, in 2009, from the now discontinued National Pharmaceutical Strategy and National Pharmacar e Talks (November 13, 2012).

All Albertans have access to prescription drug benefits through the Alberta Government sponsored drug program. Unlike Newfoundland & Labrador and most Canadian provinces, Alberta has a publicly funded, but privately administered Drug Program with Alberta Blue Cross. Alberta Health & Wellness contracts with Alberta Blue Cr oss to of fer five drug plans: 1.) Non-group coverage, available to all uninsur ed Albertans under the age of 65 years, and their dependents.

2.) Coverage for Seniors, for

all Albertans 65 years of age and older, and their dependents, and for r ecipients of the Alberta Widows' Pension and their dependents.

3.) Multiple Scler osis (MS) Drug Coverage.

4.)

Diabetic Supply Coverage.

5.) Palliative Car e Drug Coverage for Albertans diagnosed as terminally ill and receiving drug therapy at home.

Albertans who ar e covered by either the Nongroup or the Seniors Dr ug Plans pay pr emiums once every 3 months, and their Medicare premiums to the Alberta Department of Health & Wellness through Blue Cross. People can have their premiums reduced or eliminated if they are recipients of the Alberta Widows Pension, Work Income Reduction or are eligible for social assistance.

Alberta Human Resources & Employment contracts with Blue Cross to offer health plans, includ-

Kerry Anderson Publisher

ing drug coverage for the following groups: Income Support for Albertans who are receiving Social Assistance; Adult Health Benefit for those Albertans who no longer r equire income support; Assured Income for the Sever ely Handicapped (AISH) for adults who have a permanent disability which pr events them fr om working; Alberta Child Health Benefit for children of lowincome families.

Albertans who r eceive Alberta Works, Income Support, Alberta Adult Health Benefits, Assured Income for the Sever ely Handicapped (AISH), and Alberta Child Benefit receive premium free Alberta Health Car e Insurance, eye exams and prescription eyeglasses, dental care, diabetic supplies, emergency ambulance services, as well as prescription drugs from Human Resources and Employment.

has other plans which pr ovide free medications, including: * Outpatient Cancer Program * Province wide services which assists the Edmonton & Calgary Regional Health Authorities to obtain high cost drugs. Transplant Drugs, HIV Dr ugs, Pulmozyne (Cystic Fibrosis), Human Gr owth Hormones, Flolan (Pulmonary hypertension) and Visudyne (Macular Degeneration) * Alberta Regional Authorities provides all medically necessary dr ugs for Alberta Hospitals, Auxiliary Hospitals and Nursing Homes. * Disease Contr ol & Prevention.

Albertans are eligible for assistance for their medical supplies and equipment from the government administered Alberta Aids to Daily Living, (AADL), Department of Seniors and Community Supports.

Marline Umrysh Jodie TracyDerksen Harding Advertising Sales/ Ad Sales Office Manager/ Composition Ad Composition

Such coverage includes: Ostomy Supplies, Hearing Aids, Mastectomy Prosthesis, Respiratory Equipment and Supplies, Walkers and Walking Aids, Compression Garments, and other pr osthetic supplies.

With some exemptions, AADL is a cost shar ed program. The general r ule is that eligible Albertans, including Ostomates, have to pay 25% of their medical equipment and supplies benefits up to a maximum contribution of $500 per family per year . However, low income Albertans of all ages are exempt fr om this co-payment.

In other words, Albertans who receive the Alberta Widows Pension, AISH, or the Alberta Works Health Benefits, receive 100% coverage.

Fires near Mundare Michelle Pinon Editor

Members of Mundar e Fire and Rescue responded to a baler fir e on Range Road 161 and Township Road 542 on Tuesday, Sept. 23 at 1:49 p.m.

Members arrived to find a baler burning and that fire had spr ead to several bales acr oss the field into a small br ush line.

“Winds were gusting about 35 km/hr causing the fire to spr ead to the brush,” stated Fire Chief Glenda Dales. She went on to say that, thanks to the quick action of neighbour Danny Warawa to disc ar ound the field, it pr evented any further spread of the fire.

Cause of the fire was a bearing on the baler .

Estimated damage was five bales and the baler .

Responders left the scene at 7:30 p.m.

The following day , Wednesday, Sept. 24, responders came out to a vehicle fire in a field at Range Road 162 and Township Road 540 to find the vehicle fully engulfed. “Owner of the vehicle was r eturning from taking food out to family that was combining and heat of the exhaust system caused chaff to catch on fir e,” stated Dales.

“Quick action on neighbours who saw smoke and came to check it out had br ought a fire extinguisher and used it on the grassy area around the burning vehicle to pr event the fire from spreading.”

Dales went on to say, “Mundare Fire & Rescue would like to thank all the good neighbours who assisted in extinguishing or slowing the process of the fire before our arrival. W e would especially like to thank the farmers who bring their equipment out to provide us fire breaks in the field when they ar e especially busy and under the time cr unch trying to get their cr ops in.”

Bruderheim blooms at CIB conference Michelle Pinon Editor

Bruderheim was well r epresented at the National Communities In Bloom (CIB) in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island.

Bruderheim CIB chairperson Sherry Cote and her husband Bob wer e on hand to personally accept the certificate on behalf of the town. The T own of Bruderheim received a five bloom rating, and a special mention for A Community of Gardeners during the national symposium and awards ceremonies.

“This was the first year that Br uderheim qualified to participate in the National CIB program,” said Sherry. “You have to win provincials before you can participate in the national program.”

Sherry said they ar e very fortunate to have a town council that believes in the benefits of the pr ogram and support it as well as the town staf f that work har d to support the committee.

“Communities In Bloom: People, Plants

and Pride...Growing Together has strengthened our community ,” stated Sherry. “Every volunteer associated with our community or ganizations provide some form of service to engage our citizens in keeping our community tidy and welcoming to visitors and residents or support recreation and/or culture events to engage members of the community.”

Every year members of the Br uderheim CIB committee r eview the feedback it receives from the CIB judges that visit the community in July, and try to impr ove on their work and implement their suggestions, added Sherry.

Sherry says the volunteers as well as Mayor Karl Hauch and members of town council continually see new pr ojects and possibilities. While some of the pr ojects can be done right away, others need financial support, noted Sherry . But with the willingness to work together and a shar ed vision, there’s is no doubt many mor e great things will be happening in Bruderheim for many more years to come.

Spectacular show ready to take center stage Lamont teacher set to wow audiences

SOUNDS UKRAINIAN

By Andrew McDonald Lamont Elementary teacher Kelsey (Starko) Kelly and her dance tr oupe Volya are set to take the stage in a three city tour beginning in Saskatoon on October 4 and in North Battlefor d on October 5. The grande finale of the 3 city tour is set to take place at Edmonton’s Northern Alberta Jubilee Auditorium at 7:00PM on October 10.

A matinee school performance is also set for October 10 at 10:30a.m.

A 16 year Veteran of Volya, Kelsey’s dancing career began right her e in Lamont. “I started dancing with the Lamont Veselka Dancers when I was 10 and moved on to Yuna (young) Volya when I was 13. I began dancing with the Volya Ukrainian Dance Ensemble when I was 15 and have been dancing with them ever since” says Kelly (Starko).

The group has tour ed many cities and countries in the past 25 years and, for 16 of those years, Kelsey’s traveling history with the gr oup is quite extensive. Germany, Brazil, T urkey,

Lamont teacher and dancer Kelsey (Starko) Kelly is a member of the Volya Ukrainian dance troupe.

Portugal, France, as well as many states and provinces are some of the many destinations she has had the privilege of dancing at. Performing in fr ont of family and friends close to home is extra special though.

“The most unique part of our show is that there will be a variety of numbers danced to live music... W e have the Dnipro Academic Ukrainian Folk Ensemble joining us fr om Kyiv, Ukraine. Our show will be a combination of some old favourites and some new, exciting pieces of chor eography” says Kelly (Starko) “I have enjoyed all of my years dancing with the ensemble and appreciate the many opportunities being a member has af forded me. I have enjoyed dancing, travelling, and working with fellow dancers with whom I have developed lifelong friendships. There is a camaraderie that exists within the gr oup that is sur e to unite us for our exciting and unique 25th anniversary show”.

Split up into two halves, the first half of 25 Years of Volya depicts some of the traditional celebrations and historical aspects of Ukrainian culture, while the second half explor es a mor e modern Ukraine and includes dances not commonly seen, such as Kubanskiy Kozachok and Black Sea Kozaks. Both halves feature all original chor eography by artistic dir ector Zhenia Bahri, some of it never seen on stage befor e.

“It is very exciting to be pr oducing such a large show here at home,” says Bahri. “It will be gr eat to have an Edmonton audience see the amazing talent in Volya. The dancers have been working very har d to bring it all together.” “Volya has been planning, preparing, and r ehearsing for our upcoming show for the last 2 years.

The ensemble r ehearses twice a week for a total of 7.5 - 9.5 hours. W e also hold extra practices and dr ess rehearsals when needed” added Kelly (Starko).Tickets for 25 Years of Volya: The Freedom Lives On at the Northern Alberta Jubilee Auditorium are available through Ticketmaster.

Elk Island Public Schools Superintendent Bruce Beliveau announces his retirement SUBMITTED BY ELK ISLAND PUBLIC SCHOOLS

Elk Island Public Schools (EIPS) Superintendent Bruce Beliveau has provided his formal notice to the Board of Trustees that after 40 years in education he will retire effective January 2, 2015.

Mr. Beliveau’s retirement comes at a significant milestone in his educational career, as he provided 20 years of service with Strathcona County Schools and another 20 years of service with Elk Island Public Schools. Throughout his career, which began in 1975, he has been a

teacher, assistant principal, and principal. In 2000, he became a director and later an associate superintendent in Human Resources before taking on the role of Superintendent in March 2010.

“The Board is extremely grateful to Bruce for his years of dedication and commitment to EIPS, to the students we serve, and to education as a whole”, notes Board Chair Trina Boymook.

“His passion for education is unmatched, and his focus is always on the students within the EIPS community, and how the division can best support their success and achievement.”

Over the years, Mr.

Beliveau brought a wealth of experience to both his teaching and administrative roles at all levels from Kindergarten to Grade 12 before transitioning to Central Office. He holds a Bachelor of Science degree (biology major) and a Bachelor of Education degree (secondary) from Acadia University and a Master of Education (educational administration and leadership) from the University of Alberta.

Mr. Beliveau and his wife Karen have two grown children, Ashley and Andrew, and are proud grandparents to grandson Noah. Mr. Beliveau is an active golfer and volleyball

player who enjoys music, food, and traveling.

Elk Island Public

Schools is proud to have called Bruce one of our own and fortunate to have such an outstand-

ing individual and educator shaping the minds and spirits of our students.
