The Source to open corporate store in Drumheller Patrick Kolafa | inSide Drumheller

The Source Electronics is setting up a corporate store in Drumheller. The valley is currently served by a dealer shop operated by Wave Electronics. The Source is planning to open come April. “We will be opening a new store in Drumheller that will be a The Source corporate store, operated under new management … The current dealer will no longer operate as The Source effective April 2012,” said Kristy Linklater, marketing content manager for The Source, in an e-mail. The plan is for an approximately 2,400 square foot store in the valley. Linklater said the management team and location would be announced at a later date. “Drumheller was selected as

an excellent location for The Source, given the cities strong market and retail demographics,” said Linklater. The Source has about 700 locations across Canada. In 2004 InterTAN, which operated as RadioShack, was acquired by Circuit City. The new ownership rebranded the stores as The Source by Circuit City. This was purchased in 2009 by Bell Canada, and has since dropped the Circuit City brand. Linklater said the opening of the Drumheller store is part The Source dealer store in Drumheller, operated by Wave Electronics will be closing at the end of March, as The Source is bringing in a of a larger expansion. 2,400 square foot corporate store. “The Source is expanding inSide photo by Patrick Kolafa the company’s corporate and dealer operations in the Cana- customer needs as a lead- the change.

Will not install distribution systems in Lehigh, East Coulee

the outlying communities have their own well systems and those who can afford it have even added their own residential treatment systems. We respect and recognize the clear opposition to the installation of a distribution system so that residents can continue to benefit from their investment in their private well sys-

tems,” says Mayor Terry Yemen. The transmission line is expected to be constructed in 2012 and there are plans for filling stations and fire suppression facilities. This will also allow residents with property along the line to negotiate hooking up to the system. “If they (residents from

Cambria to Lehigh) express an interest, they will meet with administration, and each price will be different depending on how far they have to go,” said Yemen. Council is planning to send a letter to residents along the line in the near future outlining their options with the addition of the transmission line.

Michael Sharpe “No, it wouldn’t. Maybe my decision on what company I'd choose and I’d definitely do a lot of research.”

Sheila MacRae “If I had the chance I wouldn’t go, especially now, but I don’t like being on the water anyway.”

The Town of Drumheller is respecting the wishes of Lehigh and East Coulee residents by not imposing water distribution systems on the communities. The town will, however, continue with the transmission line from Cambria to the western edge of East Coulee. The town has received 90 per cent funding for the transmission line ($4 million), but the distribution system that would bring water to the edge of residential properties would have been funded through a local improvement tax. Residents of East Coulee and Lehigh overwhelmingly rejected the project, and the town is cognizant of the directive of the residents. “Most of the residences of

Possession of hash adds 45 days to sentence Patrick Kolafa | inSide Drumheller

An inmate at the Drumheller Institution had 45 days tacked onto his sentence after guards found hash in his underwear. David Badger appeared in Provincial Court in Drumheller on Friday, January 13. He pleaded guilty to simple possession of drugs. The court heard how on September 18, 2011, institution staff noted the odour of cannabis during a range walk. Badger was strip searched which revealed a chap stick cap containing hash oil in his underwear. The institutional value of the seizure was about $750. He was given 45 days consecutive to the sentence he is currently serving.

Woman sentenced for smuggling drugs into prison Patrick Kolafa | inSide Drumheller

A woman caught smuggling drugs into the Drumheller Institution was given a conditional sentence order after pleading guilty. Kimberly Robinson appeared in Provincial Court in Drumheller on Friday, January 13 for sentencing. She pleaded guilty to possession for the purpose of trafficking. On December 18, 2010 Robinson attended to the Drumheller Institution to visit her stepson at about 10:30 a.m. She was searched by a drug dog, which alerted staff. Robinson admitted to hav-

ing contraband, and was strip-searched by two female corrections officers. Their search revealed a package wrapped in Saran and a condom, containing 30.5 grams of marijuana on her person. The institutional value of the seizure was about $1,525. Federal Prosecutor Colin Kloot argued for a six-month sentence. He said a situation where drugs are being brought into a institution is always aggravating because of the effect introducing drugs has on the inmate, other inmates and staff, and the primary goal of sentencing in these cases is deterrence and denunciation. Robinson’s pre-sen-

tence report was described as positive, and Kloot said there was not any need for rehabilitation. Defense for Robinson, Dale Slaferek argued that the principles of sentencing could be satisfied by a community disposition. Mitigating factors included that she made an early guilt plea and that marijuana is, he described, a “soft” drug. Judge Gaschler agreed that a conditional sentence was appropriate in this case. Robinson was sentenced to a two-year conditional sentence order. For the first nine months, she will be subject to a curfew and she was ordered to complete 200 hours of community service.

Man racks up fines during check stop Patrick Kolafa | inSide Drumheller

A man is facing more than $3,000 in fines after being stopped at a check stop in Drumheller over the holiday season. Tarn Prey appeared in provincial court in Drumheller

on Friday, January 13. He pleaded guilty to two counts of possession of drugs, driving without a valid driver's licence and driving without insurance. The court heard how on December 9, 2011, Prey was stopped at a check stop in

Drumheller. Officers noted the smell of marijuana. The driver was found not to have a valid licence or insurance. A search revealed a bag containing 11 grams of marijuana. A search of his wallet revealed about a half gram of cocaine.

Prey, 28, was fined $300 for possession of marijuana, $700 for possession of cocaine, $230 for driving without a licence and $2,500 for driving with no insurance, plus applicable victim surcharges.

Open Auditions Looking for adult male and female actors for one-act plays.

Valley residents are invited to relive an evening with perhaps the most colourful character in the history of Drumheller. An Evening at Fanny’s, on Saturday, February 11 at Fanny's Place will take guests back on a roaring trip to the prohibition years. Fanny Ramsley is a legendary figure in the seedier annals of Drumheller history. Fanny opened a brothel in Drumheller in the late 1910s, and was in business for the roaring twenties and dirty thirties. Fanny and Mary Roper, who also owned a brothel, were two of the most generous people in the Drumheller valley during the years of the Great Depression. The two madams would load a taxi with food and have it delivered to the home of a family in need. Sometimes those in need were the grieving families of miners who had died while working in the mines. It is because of the generosity of the madams that the Atlas Coal Mine Historical Society chose to hold a fundraiser based, to some extent, on the houses of ill repute. The evening is aiming to recapture that exciting atmosphere. Guests can mingle with his-

toric characters such as Fanny herself, have an ol’ fashioned fried chicken dinner, listen to some good ol’ honkytonk music, play some games of chance, and witness a live stage show. Guests are encouraged to dress up in their favourite retro finery. Flappers are encouraged. Tickets can be purchased by phoning the Atlas Coal Mine at 403-822-2220, Monday to

Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Inquiries can be emailed to info@atlascoalmine.ab.ca. The event is restricted to those 18 and older. Guests are asked to arrange a safe ride home. Proceeds from the evening will go towards the Miner’s Memorial. The memorial will be unveiled in 2012 and the monument will name all of the men who perished in the Drumheller coalfield.

Family Literacy Day promotes love of reading Michael James | inSide Drumheller

and engaging in literacy related activities as a family. It is the belief of Drumheller Family Literacy that the best time to begin learning is with a baby and that parents are the most valuable means to teach these essential skills. Even reading to a child for 15 minutes a day can dramatically improve a child’s literacy skills. “We’ve even said to start at zero, reading to a baby,� said Henrickson. Recent research into child development has suggested that to be among the best readers by the age of eight, children must hear at least 1000 stories by kindergarten and memorize between four to eight (some research suggests even more) nursery rhymes, songs, or prayers by the time they are four. Drumheller Family Literacy will be celebrating Family Literacy Day on Saturday, January 28, starting at 2 p.m. in the Drumheller Public Library. The theme this year is “Journey to Learning.� Kids will make their own version of the popular Cat in the Hat game I Can Do That!. Snacks

Drumheller Family Literacy is asking parents in the valley to take some time on Saturday, January 28 to participate in Family Literacy Day, a nationwide initiative to raise awareness of the importance of reading. Literacy in Canada is generally assumed to be at or near 100 per cent. However, there are studies that show about one quarter of Canadians would not be able to completely read this article. Those who are in this minority, especially those well into adulthood have great diďŹƒculty doing basic tasks, like reading warning signs or medical instructions. “They still, in this day and age, can slip through the cracks and you wouldn’t know they couldn’t read until push came to shove. They’ve learned to adapt and cover very well,â€? said Louise Henrickson, coordinator for Drumheller Family Literacy. Family Literacy Day began on January 28, 1999, and has been held on the same day every year since. The goal of the annual event is to impress upon Canadians the importance of reading

and reading stories will follow. “Literacy needs to be fun and engaging for the little guys to learn,� said Henrickson. The philosophy for family literacy is

to make the learning process enjoyable for everyone to promote lifelong literacy. Parents are encouraged to register by Wednesday, January

Drumheller RCMP wants to reinforce that simple actions can prevent crimes of opportunity. This follows a spell of easily preventable theft of vehicles in the Drumheller area. Staff Sergeant Art Hopkins explains that from October to December of last year, there were 15 vehicles stolen within the Drumheller Detachment area, 11 were within the corporate limits of the town. “Upon review of these thefts, almost all of the vehicles were left with either keys in the ignition or placed somewhere in the vehicle,” said Hopkins. “On at least one occasion the culprit entered into the unlocked garage.” He emphasizes how important it is for people to simply lock their car and pocket the key. Even a garage is not secure protection to leave the keys in the ignition. He adds, in some cases the theft of a vehicle with a key ring can leave the victim vulnerable to more crime. “Many of these vehicles not only had keys to the associated vehicle, but there was also keys to the house on the key ring. These associated keys make it possible to enter your house then or at a later time,” said Hopkins.

Here’s how it works: Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!

Dragons wake with roar from winter’s nap Michael James | inSide Drumheller

Justin Cintas deftly maneuvers around the Calgary Canucks' defense. The Drumheller Dragons snapped their five game losing streak, winning 7-4 over the Canucks. The win puts the Dragons within reach of securing a spot in the AJHL playoffs. The

Dragons faced the Calgary Mustangs on Thursday, January 19. The results were not available at press time. The Dragons return to home ice on Saturday, January 21, at 7:30 p.m. against the St. Albert Steel. inSide photo by Michael James

Girls Dynos hold their own in tournament Michael James | inSide Drumheller

The Drumheller Valley Secondary School Girls Dynos were at full strength on January 14 and 15 for a tournament in Chestermere. Sickness and injuries held them back in their previous tournament. The Dynos faced some stiff competition and left with a 1-2 record. “We almost had two lines, which makes a huge difference,” said head coach Ryan Hatch. “It wasn’t just five so the girls weren’t as tired.” The Dynos first game in the tournament was against the host team Chestermere Lakers, one of the toughest teams around. The Dynos held their own for

quite awhile, but things pulled away from them later in the game and the Dynos lost. The Dynos then faced the girls team from Cochrane High School. The Dynos rallied and came through with a win. “We had a really good game. The girls played well defensively and offensively. It was our largest offensive output of the year,” said Hatch. The win sent the Dynos to the consolation, but they lost to a squad from Calgary. “The girls played well, it was a sign that the girls have a lot of potential, but we also have work to do as well,” said Hatch. “This is a really good group of girls, they get along and spend time together, so it’s always fun.

They’re positive win or lose.” On Monday, January 16, the Dynos braved the cold and travelled to Three Hills for some league action. Fatigue and no time to prepare caused the Dynos to struggle offensively and as a consequence lose to the Three Hills team. “The girls knew it wasn’t their best game and they’re excited to face them again, because we can match them,” said Hatch. The Dynos will be taking a break from basketball next week, although final exams will test them mentally. The Dynos will be back on the court on Monday, January 30, in Acme, and at home at DVSS on February 1 against Trochu.

The Drumheller Dragons had cause to celebrate this week. The five game losing streak that has been plaguing the Dragons since the end of the holidays was broken with a 7-4 win on Tuesday, January 17, at home in the Memorial Arena. The Dragons went up against the Calgary Canucks who are a southern division rival and six points ahead in the standings. The two teams had met previously on Friday, January 6, with the Canucks the victors. The first period started slow for the Dragons. The Canucks were able to keep pressure on the Dragons and ensure most of the game was played in the Dragons own end. The Canucks were ahead by two goals by the end of the first period. For the Dragons, enough was enough. The Dragons showed what they were capable of in the second period. One of the newest Dragons, Bryton Mills, put the team on the scoreboard 1:30 into the second period. From then on the momentum shifted in the Dragons favour. By the end of the second period, four more goals, courtesy of Ryan Bloom, Justin Cintas, Brodie Jamieson, and another from Mills. The Canucks tried to come back, scoring two more goals in the third period. However, it was too little. Cintas scored his second goal of the game on the powerplay late in the third and Josh Kluck scored on a empty net with only 34 seconds left in

thought Lori Stefanishion inSide Drumheller Food Columnist

Superbowl and other celebrations I am not a sports enthusiast, nor am I a great fan. But I will host a Grey Cup, Super Bowl, Hockey, or any other type of party simply for the food! I love making and serving finger foods and appetizers. Most people are very familiar with my good old stand-by: the bacon-wrapped perogies. Here is something very similar, considering the perogy is basically potato and cheese. This is also fine to make as a side dish with a meal, such as steak or chicken. Simple with 3 ingredients!

the game. The Dragons played Thursday night in Calgary against the Mustangs, but the results were not available as of press time. The Dragons return to the Memorial Arena on Saturday, January 21, to face the last place St. Albert Steel. The action starts at 7:30 p.m.

Choose the number of potatoes according to servings, then do the same with the bacon and cheese. 1 slice of meat per potato and one slice of cheese per 4 potatoes.

Boil the small, round potatoes until cooked but still firm. Cool, then slice in half. Between the 2 halves, put in a couple slices of Provolone cheese, trimmed to fit. Then wrap the cheese-filled potato in a slice of either bacon or prosciutto -wrapping around the cheese-filled slice (in the direction you cut the potato) because this holds the cheese in. Bake at 375 for 20 minutes or more, until the bacon is cooked well. 3m

Sabres finish fourth at home tourney Patrick Kolafa | inSide Drumheller

The St. Anthony’s Sabres ďŹ nished in fourth place at their home tournament over the weekend. The Sabres invited strong teams from the zone and beyond to compete at the eighth annual tournament. A last minute cancellation by Forestburg for Friday night’s games saw the Sabres ending up with a bye to face Rosemary after they de-

feated Youngstown. The Sabres started slow and were not able to make up the gap against the solid Rosemary defense and a strong zone press. Tanner Borowicz was the high scorer for the Sabres with 30 points in the 100-58 loss. This put the Sabres in the third place match to face Heritage Christian Academy, who are ranked ďŹ fth in the province at the 1A level. Again the Sabres were slow

out of the gates, but they pulled it together and matched Heritage point for point for most of the second half but, they were not able to close the gap in the 96-69 loss. Borowicz scored 16 points while Jordan Comstock scored 15 points and led the team in assists and steals. The Sabres were hoping they would get on track this week as they faced Trochu on Tuesday night. Results not available at press time.
