Battle River ride spurs STARS effort Riding in support of STARS air ambulance, an estimated 125 riders participated in the sixth annual Battle River Ride for STARS on a sunny Saturday, July 12. “Really good,” chairperson Carol Thomas reported Monday, July 14. “We won’t have total numbers until about Thursday or Friday, in

terms of how much money was raised and how many riders took part.” Based on the early indications, Thomas said it’s reasonable to believe that the organizing committee would meet its goal of raising about $20,000. “It’s achievable.”

The horse ride through the Battle River valley began at 10 a.m. and lasted until about 5 p.m., with a onehour break for lunch. “They drank lots of water, and nobody was complaining about mosquitoes or anything else,” Thomas said. “It was a six- to eight-hour ride,

something like that.” Otherwise known as Hoofs to Helicopters, the Battle River ride is a fundraiser for STARS (Shock Trauma Air Rescue Society), which provides emergency medical transportation for people critically ill or injured. — ECA Review

RCMP warn of highway crackdown John MacNeil

Review Reporter With summer in full swing, Coronation RCMP are stepping up road-safety efforts in the region. And they encourage drivers to do likewise. “We’re going to be cracking down on (road safety),” said Sgt. Darcy McGunigal, the commanding officer with Coronation RCMP. “The whole idea isn’t to go out there and trick people into getting caught for tickets and that sort of thing. I really want to put the proactive warning out there so people buckle up ahead of time and we end up not getting a chance to even write any tickets.” Police plan to be on the lookout for traffic violations in the region, “with particular focus on impaired driving, seatbelt violations, distracted driving/use of cellphones, and failing to obey stop signs.” All of those violations commonly contribute to collisions resulting in injuries and fatalities, Sgt.

Federation launches tour as debt hits $10 billion by Derek Fildebrandt, Alberta director, Canadian Taxpayers Federation On Monday, July 14, the Canadian Taxpayers Federation (CTF) launched an Alberta Debt Clock Tour that will see the 12-foot long “debt clock” visit 25 communities and cover more than 2,730 kilometres across the province. The CTF is launching the tour to raise the alarm about Alberta’s exploding debt and get politicians to take a firm stance on getting the province’s finances back under control. “Making our great province debtfree once again is the No. 1 priority for the CTF in Alberta right now,” said CTF Alberta director Derek Fildebrandt. “We are going to take the fight to as many towns and cities as we can to rally support and put the heat on politicians to take a stance.” At 8 p,.m. on Thursday, July 10, Alberta’s debt moved past the $10-billion mark. Alberta’s debt is projected to reach $21 billion by 2016-17 and consume $1.4 billion a year in interest payments. The debt will increase by $4.7 billion in fiscal year 2014-15.

East-central residents join other Albertans this week in mourning the suspected deaths of five-year-old Calgarian Nathan O’Brien and his grandparents, Kathryn and Alvin Liknes, a former Monitor resident. Alvin Liknes’ oldest sibling is Veteran resident Elaine Ellerby, who is among multiple Liknes relatives living in the Monitor and Veteran areas. In an East Central Alberta Review story July 10, Ellerby was described as a motherly influence for Alvin and his twin Allen during their youthful years working on the Ellerby farm in Veteran.

OBITUARY

Doolaege ‘the dad who made a difference’ DOOLAEGE Robert J. 1959 — 2014 Robert Doolaege, loved husband of Annelise, and loving father of Cache, Rayelle and Blair, passed away July 10, 2014, at Olds Hospital at the age of 55 years. Rob lost a swift and challenging battle with cancer, with his family at his side. Rob was born in Castor, AB, in 1959. He was predeceased by his brothers, Joseph and Anthony, and his sister, Annie. Robert’s death now leaves a great void for his Doolaege family and the Machielse family. Rob was raised at Spruceville, the homeplace located south of Castor, where his parents Margriet and Camiel Doolaege were pioneers in the herd development of Charolais cattle here in Alberta. Being the sixth-born in a family of six boys and four girls meant Rob spent all his

Saturdays bedding cattle and completing many farm and ranch chores. Saturdays were later spent at the rink, as Rob was a great hockey player, a passion taken up by two of his children, Cache and Rayelle. He was behind the bench often for them both as he was a regular volunteer for minor hockey and also for minor ball. Furthering his education at the University of Alberta, he graduated in 1982 with a Bachelor of Science (Agriculture) and majored in Agricultural Economics. This is where Rob and Annelise met and began planning a future together. He and Annelise were married on Feb. 11, 1984, and by 1993 were blessed with three children, Cache in March of 1989; Rayelle in September of 1991; and Blair in June of 1993.

Royals warm up for midget provincials John MacNeil

Review Reporter The midget AA Coronation Royals battled extreme heat in Red Deer on an up-and-down weekend July 12 and 13 at Great Chief Park. Facing temperatures in the 30 C range, the Royals defeated Whitecourt 9-4 in their second game Sunday to gain one win in three outings on the final weekend of Baseball Alberta’s third-round play. Coronation dropped a 10-9 decision to the Leduc Giants earlier Sunday and fell 13-3 to the Barrhead Orioles on Saturday. The Royals sport a 4-2 record in Round 3, within a whisker of frontrunning Leduc (5-1) in the Tier 3 bracket. Up next for Coronation is the provincial championship tournament. The Royals learned Monday, July 14, that they would likely remain in Tier 3 for the

provincials, which are slated for the July 25-27 weekend at a site to be determined. The 14-man team with players from Coronation, Castor, Brownfield and Czar has shown progress and cohesiveness on and off the field this season. “It’s obvious these boys have a lot of fun together and really support each other,” said Royals manager Tracy Ramsay. “These guys love their ball.” In the Royals’ lone victory last weekend, Trey Zimmer struck out seven Whitecourt batters over four innings to record the win. Dan Brown earned the save. Among the offensive highlights, Graeme Crookes of Coronation cranked a shot to the fence in left field for a two-run double. Royals infielders Zimmer, Dan Brown, Cole Elliott and Tanner Eno worked well with first baseman Justin Golby and turned a few double plays, Ramsay said.

Behind the plate, Ryley Ramsay of Coronation handled the hot stuff in all three games and Matt Adams of Czar caught for parts of two of those contests. Linden Heidecker, along with Golby, pitched in Saturday’s game against Barrhead. Heidecker was one of four Coronation pitchers in Sunday’s one-run loss to Leduc, along with Brown, Elliott and Castor’s Kyle Elhard. The Castor connection with the Royals includes Ben Doolaege, Alex Groger and the Coppock brothers — Cutler and Riley. Coronation’s coaches are Craig Brown, Brad Golby, Wayne Thacker and Jordan Barnes. Scoreboard: Elsewhere on the July 12-13 weekend, Bawlf won a pair of games, 16-8 over Hanna and 6-2 over Cochrane. Hanna also lost 18-6 to Athabasca and 19-18 to the Team Alberta women.

Bulls score four more wins, enter provincials as top seed ECA review

John MacNeil

Review Reporter The East Central Bulls keep on roaring. The bantam AA Bulls won all four of their Edmonton-area games on the July 11-13 weekend. It was their final weekend of Baseball Alberta play before the Tier 1 provincial championship, which is scheduled for the Aug. 1-3 weekend at a site to be determined. East Central, a regional team based in Veteran, posted a perfect 6-0 record in Round 3. Sporting a 17-1 record in Baseball Alberta play, the Bulls enter the provincials as the top seed in the Tier 1 bracket. Three of the Bulls’ wins on

the July 11-13 weekend were shutouts. They blanked the South Jasper Place Thunderstruck 3-0 as Carver Zimmer of Coronation threw a three-hit, complete-game shutout. Brendan Logan of Oyen gave up just two hits over six shutout innings as East Central stormed past the North Peace Hurricanes 10-0. Paul Georget of Stettler and Hayden Schetzsle of Veteran combined their pitching efforts as the Bulls dumped the South Jasper Place Jays 12-0 to post their third shutout victory of the weekend. Brownfield’s Robby Gilbertson smacked a grand slam in that game to accentuate the Bulls’ weekend dominance.

In their opening victory, the Bulls beat the Edmonton Angels 6-1 as Taylor Frank of Castor pitched 5 and 2/3 innings for the win. Four members of the Bulls are part of their respective

regional teams for the Alberta Summer Games, scheduled for July 24-27 at Airdrie. That group includes Stettler’s Georget, Amisk’s Brandon Buxton and Oyen’s Brendan and Gavin Logan.

Walter was the mayor of Coronation from 1962 to 1969, and his wife Pearle (deceased 2010) were partners in Bell’s Foods Ltd. and Pearle’s ladies wear (formerly The Style Shoppe) until 1989, when they retired to an acreage on the outskirts of Calgary. He resides now at an independent retirement apartment in the city.

Games aren’t just about playing organized sports. They’re about making up your own. Bernie DeKoven, author of Junkyard Sports, shows us how we can make up whole new sports with an old newspaper, a little imagination and a few good friends.

At least 2 (for two teams) Gyms, hallways or anywhere flat, smooth and a little slippery To make a polo mallet, roll several sheets of newspaper diagonally into a tube. Make the mallet head by either bending, or tearing and creasing one end. Roll a sheet of newspaper into a ball. For goals, make two giant paper cones, each from one whole piece of newspaper, and place them mouth-down.

Divide into two teams, and give each player a paper polo mallet. Set the big paper cones at either end of the playing area, with their points standing up. Players whack the paper ball with their mallets, trying to get the ball to hit the opponents’ cone. All the while, each player stands on two pieces of newspaper, one for each foot. Players must shuffle around, keeping their feet on Newspaper their newspapers for the whole game. Twister Standards Link: Reading Comprehension: Follow multiple-step Place a sheet of written directions. newspaper on the floor and stand next to it. Have a friend give you the following directions: 1. Place your right hand on a headline.

Two plastic shopping bags and one Bubbleball (a plastic grocery bag wrapped around a chunk of bubble wrap).

3. Place your right knee on a noun.

Standing at opposite ends of the playing area, one player from each team becomes his team’s “basket” by holding a shopping bag open; he can move the bag around to thwart the other team, but must keep the bag open and have one foot in place at all times. The object is to get the Bubbleball into the opposing team’s basket.

4. Place your right foot on a number. Keep coming up with silly directions until you start laughing so hard that you can’t play anymore!

The game is played like basketball, except that players dribble by repeatedly hitting the ball in the air, palm up. Players can either shoot or dunk the ball into the basket. The team with the most baskets in 30 minutes of play wins. Standards Link: Physical Education: Students know there are opportunities for physical activity outside of school.

The activities on today’s Kid Scoop are adapted from the book Junkyard Sports by Bernie DeKoven. For more ideas, visit www.junkyardsports.com

The first clock in each row shows the time the kids starting playing Baggyball. Each game lasted 30 minutes. Circle the clock in each row that shows the time each game ended.

The May celebration, however, went a step further in honour of the milestone anniversary. A feast of Turkish and Greek foods was served (catered by chef Mustafa of the White Goose Restaurant), followed by an Egyptian belly dance performance (by Catherine Zimmerman), and a review of highlights of the history of the club (by the club’s longest-standing member, Ardena Zinger). The evening wrapped up with coffee and Baklava.

Members and former members of the Castor Ladies Reading Club gathered this spring to celebrate 80 years of reading, enrichment and good fun. For the past eight decades, they have met semi-monthly from October to May to exchange great books, but the highlight of each meeting is the presentation — perhaps a research paper, slide show, or demonstration — brought by one member for the enjoyment of the others.

You don’t need to be a stone mason for decorative bricks

PREPARATION Decorative bricks are usually laid on plywood or plasterboard. Clean the underlying surface thoroughly and apply a primer if necessary. In some cases, the addition of a layer of wire mesh may be necessary. It goes without saying that the wall surface or floor should be level before you begin work.

To find the best product for your project, as well as the appropriate installation technique, be sure to ask a professional for advice.

INSTALLATION Spread the glue with a notched trowel over one small area at a time, starting at the bottom of the wall. Place the bricks, leaving an equal space between each of them and ensuring that the joints are offset from one row to the next. Check frequently to ensure that the row of bricks is level. Use a miter saw fitted with a ceramic blade for cutting the bricks at the end of the rows. Recuperate the remnants to start a new row. Brick corners, used to cover the corners of three dimensional objects, such as those on a mantelpiece, are also available on the market. Now all that’s left to do is to fill the

Foundation problems need to be dealt with quickly The foundation is the base of a house. That means if foundation problems arise, it is crucial to remedy the situation as quickly as possible in order to safeguard the entire structure. As this is a structural problem, faults in the foundation can cause more extensive damage if they are not repaired as soon as they are discovered. Roofs caving in, walls cracking, water infiltration, doors that no longer close, and many other unwelcome surprises can be avoided with timely repairs.

First of all, keep in mind that the purpose of the foundation is to bear the entire weight of the house. To ensure that the foundation is adequate for this purpose, it has to be designed in accordance with the topography of the land, the water table, the type of soil (clay, sandy, or rocky), and local building codes. All these aspects have to be taken into account when problems arise and need to be corrected. The extent of the work to be carried out has to be evaluated by an expert. Many specialists

are able to repair or even replace foundations. In the case of subsidence, it may be possible to stabilize and straighten the foundation with the help of steel piles. Repairs

applying varnish, while very wide models are useful for covering big surfaces, such as a patio.

The right paintbrush for the job Is it for edges or large areas? Do you need natural bristles or synthetic? Big or small? When it comes to paintbrushes, there is certainly no lack of choice. The following is a short guide to help you choose the model that suits your needs, so that you don’t paint yourself into a corner. First of all, invest in good quality brushes; they will last a long time if you follow the manufacturer’s care recommendations. Be sure to choose a brush with the appropriate bristles for the type of product to be used. • For water-based paints (latex, acrylic), use polyester or nylon/ polyester bristles • For oil-based products (alkyds), use natural bristles (often boar bristles) or nylon/polyester bristles The shape of the brush also has to be specific to the job. Rounded brushes are ideal for threedimensional surfaces (such as mouldings) and edges. Flat brushes are perfect for work that doesn’t require

A safer home for the elderly A few simple tricks can sometimes be enough to improve the quality of life of elderly people who live in their own homes. The biggest tip of all is to think about de-cluttering the living space. Low pieces of furniture, rugs, and electric wires on the floor are often the cause of falls. Pay particular attention to high-traffic areas and the bedroom, especially around the bed.

Conveniently placed furniture and grab bars installed in strategic places facilitate an elderly person’s movements around the home. Grab bars are also a priority in the bathroom, where devices that help prevent falls are vital. Anti-slip flooring is also essential. Baths can be suitable for those who do not have mobility problems; however, a handheld shower can be much easier to use for an elderly person, especially if they can sit on a shower bench and have grab bars to use for standing up, sitting down, and getting in and out of the cubicle or bathtub.

Appropriate light fixtures

Where possible, the bedroom should be on the ground floor and be located near a bathroom. Not having to negotiate stairs, especially at night, is an important safety factor. Space and clutter can be maximized by reducing a room’s furniture to the bare essentials. Wall lights are also a good idea, with switches placed in convenient spots to facilitate access. A bed with a remote-controlled base gives much-appreciated comfort when an elderly person wishes to read or watch television before going to sleep. Above all, keep comfort and safety in mind, without forgetting about the individual’s tastes, needs, and habits.

New transmission lines needed, says operator Lisa Joy

Review Reporter Transmission lines in east-central Alberta are too weak to support expected growth and must be upgraded, according to Alberta Electric System Operator (AESO), which wants to build new lines. The additional lines are needed to accommodate new wind generation and growth in the pipeline industry that’s expected to double the amount of generation and growth in the area, Paul Deleske, spokesperson for AESO, told Lacombe County council at its July 11 regular meeting.

Deleske said AESO is already seeing instances where generations in east-central Alberta already have to cut back on how much power they create because the transmission lines they’re connected to aren’t large enough to handle the higher power flows, and customers in the area face increased risks of power outages. The Central East Transmission Development (CETD) was originally approved in 2011, but is being revised because some wind-generation projects were cancelled and new ones approved. AESO wants to add 240 kV transmission lines and upgrades to strengthen the transmission system in the east-central

area, saying it will permit power from the current and new generators to flow where it’s required and allow power to flow between the east-central area and other areas of the province. Over the coming months, AESO plans to hold a public-consultation process. Lacombe County Coun. Brenda Knight said she plans to attend an open house in Red Deer to get more information. “The presentation at council did not

Farm families earn Stampede honours Four families from east-central Alberta were among 20 families honoured at the Calgary Stampede for their contributions to Alberta agriculture. At the 19th annual BMO Farm Family Awards on July 7, the award-winners included Sawyer Farms Ltd. (Matthew Sawyer) of the County of Kneehill, the Nelson Family Farm (Rod Nelson and family) of the County of Starland, Caseley Farms (Jack Caseley and family) of Special Areas No. 4 (Veteran area) and G&L Christensen Farm (Grant and Linda Christensen) of Special Areas No. 2 (Hanna area). Each family received a personalized farm-gate sign and tickets to the Calgary WWW.BRILTD.COM Stampede rodeo. “Today’s modem farm families are both savvy entrepreneurs and innovators who continue to embrace new techniques to

improve their day-to-day operations and put high quality food on our tables,” Agriculture and Rural Development Minister Verlyn Olson said in a news release. “Their hard work and commitment to their families and communities makes them part of the bedrock of our agriculture sector and rural Alberta.” The Alberta Agriculture Service Board selects the award-winning farm families, who demonstrate environmental initiatives and skills that have changed farming communities in the province. “The stampede is pleased to recognize and honour the chosen families who make a difference in Alberta communities by demonstrating new agriculture innovations and practices,” said Calgary Stampede president Bob Thompson.

Everything would still count as far as points and money for the riders, because the long round was complete. It would be just like everybody had bucked off in the short round and the average would be paid out accordingly.” Kinsella is a popular stop on the bull-riding circuit, with $10,000 in prize money. Beau Brooks of Cochrane was crowned the champion, earning $3,993 after scoring an 86. “We had an excellent crowd, upwards of 1,000 people,” McKie said. “The long round was completed and they had the wild pony race and intermission. They saw approximately 30 bulls buck, sort of deal.” With the crowd waning and the wacky weather unrelenting, the organizers were also running short of riders. “We had four riders that were qualified to come back (for the short-go) and we were going to have to take six (more) guys based on time,” McKie said. “We couldn’t find enough guys to even fill the short-go. “The long-go was completed.

All those jangled miles on the road were taking a toll on his lower back. However, life in his recliner was tougher on him than bouncing around on a long haul, so he picked up the phone and called Mike, wondering if they had any opportunities. A new door opened. “Here I am,” says Ed with a big friendly smile. “It’s a blessing.” He absolutely enjoys the work, meeting people and staying vital. If you’re looking for a new vehicle, give Ed a call. You’ll be impressed by how hard he’ll work for you.
