The Canadian government has been providing condoms to inmates, inSide Drumheller asks, “Do you think Corrections Canada should be supplying condoms to inmates in federal prisons?”

one of Canada’s most prized and iconic national treasures Wednesday when the RCMP Musical Ride made a stop at the Stampede Grounds. The ride was performed twice on Wednesday, August 11 to more than 2,000 in total. A tradition to the Musical Ride is to honour an outstanding citizen. At the Drumheller Show, longtime Drumheller businessman John Kohut Sr. was given the honour of signalling the show to begin. The elegant display of the Mountie red through equestrian riding skill is a full time job for the proud few selected to take the tradition cross-country. Constable Sandi Farkas, 38, has ridden her horse Venus, 9, since being chosen for the full-time job two years ago. “It’s a wonderful experience,” said Farkas prior to

noon. This was the first time the ride had been to Drumheller.

Wednesday’s 2 p.m. show. “It is one of the few Canadian icons, I’m proud and honoured to be able to ride.” The Mounties who rode this week are the same who ride across the country. These men, women, and horses train for months for the event. After a 5-week basic course, about 32 talented riders are weeded out of the nearly 300 that tryout for the prestigious position. They then spend months practising intricate maneu-

vers and cavalry drills such as the turnstile, the charge, and the dome, which was featured on old $50 bills. The black thoroughbred Hanoverian horses are selected for their size, colour, and temperament. The horses are bred in Ottawa for ceremonial purposes, and join the ride at the age of 6. The oldest horse still in the show is Hector, now 21 years of age. Farkas, now on her last year of three with the ride, says she is lucky to be riding

Venus, a gentle horse with a good temperament. “I’m sure going to miss her,” she says as she gives her horse a kiss on the face. “Even though they are big, they are loving animals.” “Riding on Canada Day in Ottawa,” Farkas reminisces, “was the most amazing feeling.” “Its a great gig,” to be able to work so closely with the horse and her fellow riders, she says. On Tuesday night, locals were able to go visit the horses and riders to ask questions. Two shows were held Wednesday, one at 2 p.m. and the other at 7 p.m. This was the first time the RCMP Musical Ride had graced Drumheller. “It’s an amazing way to see the country,” Farkas says. “Communities are so welcoming.” The 2010 Musical Ride set off from Quebec in June, and will continue until midOctober when the horses, and riders, get a well earned break before beginning training for next season’s ride in January. Encana supported Wednesday's Ride. The Ride benefitted Big Country Victim Services and the Drumheller Stampede and Ag. Society.

shoppers and sellers to the core this Saturday for a garage sale. There will be bargains galore on the street and in the stores. Mike Todor of Downtown Drumheller explains all residents are welcome to set up to sell their wares and to do a little shopping.

“Let the inmates decide, they give them soap don’t they?”

“We are not charging for space, so we welcome everyone to come down and bring stuff that is lurking in the far corner of the basement that another member of the community might treasure forever,” he said. While this is a great chance for residents to get out and shop, or to sell off some hidden treasures, it is also a chance to revisit the core. “Our goal is to get people downtown so they can see that the stores are full and there

Chamber golf tourney tops $10,000 Chips with Salsa a little spicy but always welcome by C. Aiello

One man’s meat is another man’s poison. I don’t know to whom that is attributable, but I’m going to apply it to the spectacular sunsets we have had recently. When there is cloud, there are fabulous shades of red, pink, gold and purple. When the sky is cloudless, we get a blazing orange-red bell that is really something to look at, and you can actually look, as it isn’t so bright that it singes your retinas. So, how do the meat and the poison work into this? Well, we are getting all these wonderful sunsets at the expense of BC’s forests. Hundreds of thousands of hectares of BC forest are on fire. It’s hell and it’s tragic, but all that smoke produces a very nice sunset. Their poison is our meat. Alright, it’s a poor analogy.

While the Encana team at the Drumheller and District Chamber of Commerce’s annual golf tournament claimed the trophy, area young people are the real winners.

who according to Christensen was again entertaining at the auction, was also on hand. The funds from the golf tournament are destined to the East Coulee Playground Project and the Drumheller Gymnastics Club. Christensen explains the funds also support two bursaries for Drumheller Composite High School and St. Anthony’s School. In addition, the funds sponsor an area youngster to attend the Alberta Youth Entrepreneurship Camp. This year’s participant is Alana Augart. This was the 15th annual Drumheller and District Chamber of Commerce Golf Tournament.

All those who thought this old world would last forever, raise your hands. More than I thought, but really, think about it. If you believe science, the earth is already millions of years old. How much older can we really expect it to get? Are we putting wrinkles on the face of old Mother Earth? Of course we are, there are over 6 billion of us, and we are all, in some way, contributing to the aging process. But what is the expiration date of this planet, and who set it? At what point will it no longer support us, and do we have a say? Who knows? I don’t know. Nobody knows. Only God knows and He’s not telling. It’s like the irresponsible physician who tells his sick patient that he only has a year to live. Nice try Doc, but you don’t get to make that call. You can’t make that call, because that one God reserves for Himself. Man is a pretty powerful, intelligent creature, who can do a great many things, including end a life. The one thing man can’t do is create life. God reserves that to Himself. In fact, He saves most of the big ones for Himself. Oh we might think we’re doing something, and it may seem as though we are, but really, who can stop a hurricane, or a volcano? Man? Ha! It’s a little arrogant to think we can stop climate change. Really, isn’t it? It was festive while it lasted, and tomorrow is the “family” party for Pop, but the odometer actually rolled over to triple digits on Wednesday. Good thing too, because Pop is pooped. His younger self could party hard, and for 100, I suppose he carries his load, it’s just that his load is a fraction of what it used to be. I’d really like to thank everyone who feted Pop over the few weeks, in whatever manner. He is overwhelmed, and he really appreciates that so many people care about him and have not forgotten him. Thank you all. New business: Who wants a fall election be it provincial or federal? No one really wants an election, but for all the times we haven’t wanted one, how many times did we get one? To politicians, an election is a battle, and we become the unwilling combatants and fleeing refugees. Whatever happened to fixed dates and term limits? Now there are two issues for the next election. 32m

Senior Titans primed to hit grid iron in San Diego Patrick Kolafa | inSide Drumheller

There are big expectations for the Drumheller Senior Titans, and they are all itching to prove they are up for the challenge. Registration night is Sunday August 15 at coach Jason Rasmussen’s classroom at 7 p.m., and right way Monday, practice begins. “The anticipation and excitement within our organization for this coming season is at an all time high,” said Rasmussen. “We have high hopes for ourselves, we truly believe this is going to be a very good season for us. All of us - coaches, players - want to get on the field and prove to ourselves the hype we have fallen to isn’t overly optimistic…and we start putting wins up on the board.” The team will finish off the week in practice and then next week they will be flying to San Diego for a football experience of a lifetime. The team will be south from August 24 to August 29. The team will be taking part

in one game while they are in San Diego, as well as many practice sessions and football

Rasmussen. “We’re looking forward to it, that will be a great experience. “The exhibition experience in San Diego, combined with the exhibition game on September 3, will give our guys a lot of playing experience and game experience going into our first league game on September 11, which we play in Strathmore.” Last year the young Titans were thwarted by Rundle Academy of Calgary on the road to provincials. “This season won’t be without its challenges and hardships along the way. Rundle I am sure will be good again, and other teams have shown significant improvements lately,” said Rasmussen. “The fact of the matter is our league, the Big Sky Conference is the strongest Tier 4 league in the province. The competition within the league is definitely stiff, and whoever comes out of it as league champions has a good chance of making it to the provincial final.”

There never was a better time for us to tell the world about our oil sands. Our energy. Ourselves. It’s up to us, as proud Albertans, to tell it like it is. The fact of the matter is, the Alberta government has strict regulations in place to protect the land, the water and the people. We supervise and strictly limit water use, monitor air quality 24/7 and require by law that any land used for tailings ponds be returned to a productive state. Because it’s the right thing to do.

Butterfly doors flown from Japan Ajay Pal Singh’s ride is certainly a head turner, especially when he’s getting in and out. People notice the driver on the right hand side of the car. They also notice the butterfly doors reaching to the sky. While he purchased this unique 1992 Toyota Sera at a dealership in Calgary about three years ago, the Sera was produced solely for a Japanese market. The Sera is of a steel monocoque construction powered by a miserly 1.5 litre four cylinder engine. The car is light enough that a man acting on a wager a few years ago picked Singh’s car off the ground. inSide photo by Patrick Kolafa

It’s 6:30 in the morning and the sun is just starting to stretch out over the horizon. Here you stand atop a cli marveling at majestic hoodoos millions of years in the making, a glint of dew marbling o the brush nearby and the sound of native swallows echoing in the distance. The light seems to cascade through what was once a bustling river valley and in the distance you see a fox traipsing across this breathtaking tapestry. In the Canadian Badlands, moments like these are easy to ďŹ nd. Filled with modern, historic and prehistoric wonders, photographers have plenty of options in the Canadian Badlands when searching for their next composition. That’s why the Badlands www.canadianbadlands.com) has a photography tour to help you along the way. Naturally, there’s plenty of unique geography thanks to the exposed layers of sediment in Dinosaur Provincial Park. But there’s so much else out there! From the Dry Island Buffalo Jump north of Three Hills to the meandering Milk River near the Alberta-Montana border, the Canadian Badlands has plenty of opportunities for shutterbugs of all experience levels to capture some magical moments.

More than just signs!

The Dorothy Churches are going to have a better and brighter look in the near future, but Betty Faubion of the Grassroots of Dorothy chuckles they won’t be sacrificing the church’s character. “Even if you break your back, you’re not going to walk straight,” she laughs. The community group has made great strides in reviving the churches over the last few years to save them from crumbling to the ground, and while they are looking better than ever, the goal was never to restore the churches. Their plan is to make sure they last so another generation can enjoy the solitary sentinels on the east end of the valley. This summer they are looking at painting the churches. They

will start painting the interior of the United Church as soon as next week. They are also looking at painting the exteriors this season. The churches have come a long way to be at this point in just a few short seasons. The churches have been completely cleaned out, structural repairs have taken place and the roofs have been reshingled to keep the weather out. Doors and custom made windows that match the originals have also been installed. Last summer the interior of the United Church was stuccoed, and Ray Faubion and his grandson were putting the casings in place this week for it to receive a fresh coat of paint. Since the renovations, Betty has seen an increase in traffic from locals and visitors coming to see the historic churches. “There are lots of people there.

There is hardly a time that I look out the window and don’t see people there,” said Betty who lives beside the church site. “More and more, people are discovering what a beautiful drive it is out here. Especially this year because it is still green, which is really a miracle, especially for this country.” The project is not complete yet. She said that inmates at the Drumheller Institution used the original alter from the Catholic Church as a template to construct a new alter. “It’s sitting in the hall waiting to go in its home in the front of the church, and it’s beautiful, they do wonderful work,” she said. They also have the materials in place, thanks to a grant from Special Areas, to redo the ceilings and floor of the Catholic Church.

SAGITTARIUS - Nov 23/Dec 21 Sagittarius, you may not have the right words but you certainly get your point across when someone asks for your opinion on financial matters. Stand by your advice this week.

TAURUS - Apr 21/May 21 Taurus, gather all the facts before making an important decision. The answer you are seeking is a little further away than you may have thought.

CAPRICORN - Dec 22/Jan 20 Things that seem insurmountable are much more manageable than you first thought, Capricorn. It's all about the angle at which you look at things.

GEMINI - May 22/Jun 21 Gemini, look before you leap because the water may be more shallow than you thought. That means you have to give more consideration to your choices this week.

AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18 Aquarius, your initial perception may not be correct. It's important to trust your instincts, but it's also good to get all the information you need.

CANCER - Jun 22/Jul 22 Cancer, there's not much you touch this week that won't work to your advantage. Enjoy your string of good fortune and accomplish every thing that needs to get done. LEO - Jul 23/Aug 23 Leo, familial obligations take you away from other things that you want to get done. But stay focused and remember there will be time for fun later.

SCORPIO - Oct 24/Nov 22 Scorpio, you can't help but jump to conclusions and get your feathers ruffled. But it's better to get all of the details sorted out so that you can look at the facts.

Annual Shuswap Cook-off This year, we held a dessert cook-off amongst our cabin neighbours on Lake Shuswap. As with the chili cook-off, there was an amazing variety of ideas. Three prizes were awarded but the “coveted trophy” went to the best overall taste. Desserts were judged on appearance, name and taste. Some of the entries included “Bear Bait” bars, ice cream cookie sandwich treats from the “Bushman’s Bakery,” the “Little Cabin on the Shuswap,” “Kahlukies and Cream” pudding shooters, and even a “What the heck can I call it?” cake. The winner, generously sharing their recipe, follows: “Huckleberry Finn Blueberry Bliss” (For the cook-off, the topping was a combination of blueberries plus huckleberries that were picked out at the cabin) This original recipe includes two topping ideas.
