inSide STREETERS As announced in this week’s edition of The Drumheller Mail, the wait is over - Tim Hortons has selected a potential site to bring its first franchise to Drumheller. inSide Drumheller asked "How do you feel about Tim Hortons coming to town?"

Debi Kennedy “It’s about time! I have a husband we call a Timmiholic. We drive to Airdrie on Sunday afternoons just so he can have a Timmies!”

Vanessa Seymour “I think it’s awesome!”

Stahl has high hopes in NHL draft Patrick Kolafa | inSide Drumheller

This Saturday, Tyler Stahl is probably going to be doing what any other average 18 yearold will be doing. Maybe he’ll be playing a little tennis, or hitting a few golf balls. He probably isn’t going to be watching TV. Any other teenager in his position however would probably be glued to the screen. After all, the future of his hockey career is hanging in the balance. Tyler, son of Gary and Lorri is ranked 116th going into the 2010 NHL draft. NHL teams on Friday and Saturday will be picking 200 players to be added to their organization. At 116, there is a good chance his career will be in the hands of a team from the premier hockey organization in the world. He sheepishly grins and admits he is not sure if he will watch yet. He would hate to be in the position of watching but not being picked. Many in Drumheller have followed Tyler’s career on his way through the hockey ranks. Quietly, but always with a smile, he started out in elementary school with FunTeam. His dad Gary chuckles and says they learned right away he was a little too physical for that type of play. He played Drumheller Minor Hockey through his ﬁrst year of peewee, before he headed to Strathmore to play. Along the way, he began to believe that he could play at the higher ranks. “I was in my ﬁrst year of summer hockey when I thought I could do well and make it,” Tyler tells inSide Drumheller.

He also grew on his way through the ranks. The defenseman now stands 6-foot-2 and is shooting past the 200-pound mark. He played his bantam career in Airdrie. He entered the bantam draft and was selected in the fourth round by the Chilliwack Bruins. He headed to Caronport High School in Saskatchewan and played midget hockey. The 2009-2010 season was his first full season in Chilliwack and he made an impact. His mid-season ranking was 96th. Even if his number is not drawn in the draft, his dream to play professional hockey is undaunted, and he understands the key is hard work. He says at the level he plays, all the players bring to the table a high skill level. The work they put into their game is what makes the difference. To that end, he is training five to six days a week this summer. Jon Armbruster, a former member of the Drumheller Dragons coaching staff, who is now working for Uptown Sports Management, comes to Drumheller weekly to help him and a number of athletes train at the Dragons training facility. Stahl says his hockey experiences are what keep him motivated. While he still won’t fess up to watching television on Saturday, he will be watching on Friday during the first round to see how some of his colleagues do. On Saturday, even if he is on the golf course, there’s a good chance he’ll be checking his phone for messages.

Editor inSide Drumheller Dear Editor, “Lead us not into temptation”. That’s what came to mind as I returned to Drumheller Tuesday morning and saw the new garbage cans sitting on people’s lawns and laneways. They’re huge. What do I need with that? Our household rarely has more than one kitchen bag of garbage per week… and we could lessen that still if there was recycling for glass and/

or community composting. When visiting a relative of ours who lives in Stettler, we were most impressed to hear that community now has curb-side recycling. I wish. I wonder how many of the new carts will be ﬁlled this week with people's old garbage cans? Increasing our community’s capacity to reduce waste instead of encouraging people to “ﬁll ‘er up” via the big new carts, would have my support. A saddened citizen, Jan Richardson

Chips with Salsa a little spicy but always welcome

by C. Aiello

Today’s technology is a wonderful thing, but there is an old maxim about too much of a good thing. Only my opinion, but I think we are nearing the point of critical mass, that is, too much. As exhibit number one, I cite the cell phone/camera/texting device/online connection. As technology speeds ahead, the cell phone/camera/etc. is going the way of the late lamented land line, being replaced by do-it-all gadgets like the Blackberry and the iPad.. I mean who needs a phone that has perhaps a lousy 100,000 apps (What the hell is an “app” anyway?), when you can get an iPad for 600 bucks that has 200,000 apps and counting? (That’s according to the advertising.) The latest thing (to me at least), books on your iPad or laptop. It isn’t really a book, then, is it? Oh sure, your little electronic device can store thousands of books, but what’s the point, you may only read about a dozen books in a year, most of us don’t read that many. A book is something I can hold in my hands; it smells of ink, paper and glue. I get a feeling through the words; I enjoy the tactile feel of turning a page, or dog-earing to mark my place. Try that on your laptop. Enough of my disdain for technology, it’s out there, there’s more of it on the way, it’s coming fast and furious, and my feelings matter little. Okay, I’m almost used to punching in the area code before dialing a local number. I still knock one out every now and then, but mostly I hit 403 before I dial. Sure it’s a hassle, but it’s just one of those things where computers, cell phones and the like are making life so much simpler and convenient. Did I just contradict myself? I said it was a hassle, but then said it was convenient. Yes, I believe that constitutes a contradiction. As a further contribution to my convenience, the White Pages for the phone book will soon be discontinued, that is, it will no longer be delivered to one’s house. The White Pages are going online. Gosh, you just know that it can’t happen soon enough for me. I’ll no longer have to finger through that lousy directory, whose print gets smaller every year, requiring me to don reading glasses. Now I’ll just dial directory assistance, and let them do the walking. Of course, I attribute the need for having to dial three extra numbers to the cell phone, whose number is beyond counting. In North America, the sight of a teen or preteen talking or texting on a cell phone is as common as seeing a teen or preteen in the Third World trying to communicate his feeling with an AK47 assault rifle. Neither technology should be allowed into the hands of anyone under the age of 18, and then only for emergencies. The first has the capacity to restrict one’s ability for rational thought, and the second, the ability for life itself.

First the phone numbers and now the license plates. It appears that we have too many cars and not enough plate numbers. I don’t see how that can be, there are only about three million of us. Sure, some of us have more than one car, but even at that, it’s maybe ﬁve million cars for personal use. You can add another million, or even two million, and you have seven million. Using a combination of three letters and three numbers, the number of permutations is astronomical. There is a formula for ﬁguring out this sort of thing, I remember there being one from high school. Of course, that was 40 years ago, and I’m afraid that time and lack of use has erased that lesson from the blackboard that is my mind. We are told we must reduce, reuse and recycle. Adding another number or letter to license plates helps to do none of these. We will use more paint, more metal and more energy. Government leadership in action, or perhaps more accurately, government leadership inaction.

Q: A: Ray Ainscough B. Sc. (PHARM)

Have health questions? We’re here to help.

Chances are you’re not alone when it comes to health matters that affect us the most. Here, your questions are answered by our local pharmacists of Riverside Value Drug Mart.

Q: A:

My friends and I go down the river in the summer and one of us always get a bad burn, what can you recommend to help after? Prevention is always more important than treatment. To prevent such a bad burn, a sunscreen with at least a SPF of 15 is recommended. If out in the sun for long periods of time, reapplication is warranted. If a burn occurs, a long shower or bath is recommended since the skin will continue to burn for hours after exposure and this can prevent further skin damage. Applying pure Aloe Vera gel can be effective in treating mild sunburns with frequent applications recommended. In severe sunburns, prescription creams are available. Are there any over-the-counter products that get rid of pinkeye, is it contagious? The only product available OTC is Polysporin eye drops. I find it effective in only approximately 25% of the time. Most often a visit to a doctor or optometrist is recommended to make sure it is indeed pinkeye and to get a prescription. Pinkeye is definitely contagious. The affected person should avoid touching their infected eye(s) with their fingers, as well, when applying drops the tip of the bottle should not touch the eye. With a prescription, pinkeye should be cured in about five days. It is recommended that the drops should be used for two days after the eye is totally clear in order to make sure that the infection is cured. If the eye is not getting better or is getting worse after two days of the start of treatment, further follow-up the a doctor or optometrist is warranted.

DCHS stem cell drive huge success Pascale Taylor | inSide Drumheller

Drumheller Composite High School (DCHS) students had a very ambitious target: to get 400 people to come to the school and have their cheek swabbed for a stem cell donation on Wednesday, June 23 within a four-hour period. The idea of the stem cell drive came from Mrs. Dart. When DCHS students found out the rare blood disease she had suﬀered from had come back, they asked how they could help. As a stem cell transplant had saved her life in June 2007, Mrs. Dart suggested this drive and felt a target of 100 would be reasonable. Mr. LaPierre and the students decided that 400 was the target they should aim for. And they are nearly there! At the time of going to press, Hailu Mulatu, coordinator for the drive from OneMatch Canadian Blood Services, told inSide Drumheller they had 309 people attending the drive and 63 had registered online.

“The Drumheller community has shown these patients [on the registry awaiting donors] very huge support and they have given a very clear indication how caring the community is,” said Mulatu. “On behalf of the Canadian Blood Services OneMatch Stem Cell and Marrow Network and the patients we serve, I would like to thank and express my gratitude to the community of Drumheller.” Mrs. Dart told inSide Drumheller, “I am excited, but I am determined to reach 400. I am not stopping until we reach our target!” “I really didn’t have any doubt,” said Mr LaPierre about reaching their target. “The 400 number came from me and talking with the Grade 7 team who were volunteering here. And I said, ‘You know, this sounds like a good number, and it may not be possible, but at the same token, I think it is. If everybody does their little part, it happens very easily.’ And sure enough,

this is exactly what happened.” People who were not able to attend the drive can still register online. To keep track

of the numbers, Mrs. Dart is asking for people to let her know when they register online by emailing her at

Retailers make eﬀorts to reduce plastic bags Patrick Kolafa | inSide Drumheller

A new agreement by grocery industry groups and the Province of Alberta is expected to see a drastic reduction of plastic grocery bags. Liked for their convenience, but loathed for the strain they put on landﬁlls and the mess they create, the Alberta government and Canadian Council of Grocery Distributors, Retail Council of Canada, Canadian Federation of Independent Grocers, and the Canadian Association of Chain Drug Stores have reached a voluntary agree-

ment to cut the number of plastic bags in circulation. They have set a target of seeing the 2008 number of bags cut in half by 2013. “Many Albertans are concerned with the number of plastic bags littering streets and entering landﬁlls,” said Rob Renner, Minister of Environment. “This agreement with retailers is an important step in reducing plastic bag waste in every community.” Many retailers in Drumheller are already taking steps to curb the number of bags. Darryl Jacques, manager of Freson IGA said as much as the bags are a convenience, grocers are concerned with the waste generated by bags, and says more customers are choosing not to use them. “More people are conscious of it for sure,” said Jacques. Freson IGA, like many oth-

er retailers, have been selling reusable shopping bags. This could help the store’s bottom line by not having expense of supplying plastic bags for many orders. “There is an expense, it’s not that great, but when you look at it over the year, it does add up,” said Jacques. “At the same time, we are not trying to make money on reusable bags.” Dave Kosolofski, controller for Drumheller Co-op says they too are making an eﬀort to promote reusable shopping bags. “On occasion we’ll do promotions where we give the reusable bags away with certain purchases to get them out there and people using them,” said Kosolofski. The store makes other eﬀorts. “We try to minimize as many plastic bags as we can throughout the course of the day,” said Kosolofski. “We also accept the

plastic bags back in our recycle centre, and we ship them back for recycling. So we do try to keep them out of the landfill by recycling them through our wholesaler.” He says plastic bags cost the store anywhere from 3-5 cents each, and while some retailers have begun to charge for bags, he says this is a route the Drumheller Co-op would not explore. Some industry best practices list include: Reduce usage of new plastic bags • Train staff to put a sticker or tape on large items instead of bagging. • Offer consumers a choice to bring their own bag. • Train staff to maximize the efficient use of bags by increasing the number of items packed in each bag.

• Train staff to ask consumers if they need a bag for smaller purchases. Provide alternatives to plastic bags • Promote and offer for use/ sale reusable cotton, net, or recycled plastic bags in lieu of providing free plastic bags. • Offer reusable bags for sale at cost, a deep discount or, in some instances, at no charge. • Offer reusable bin programs. • Offer recycled cardboard boxes as a carry-out option. • Offer compostable carry bags for sale or at point-of-sale. Provide incentives to consumers to reuse or use alternatives • Provide consumers with incentives (i.e. rebate, loyalty points) to change behaviour and use fewer plastic bags or no bags at all.

Dragons sign two prospects Patrick Kolafa | inSide Drumheller

The Drumheller Dragons have made two major signings this week to boost their squad for the 2010-2011 season. The team announced it has picked up local talent Josh Kluck, and a two-way player named Sean Sanford. At 5â&#x20AC;&#x2122;10â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;&#x2122; and 160 pounds, Kluck was a forward to be reckoned with playing last season for the AC Avalanche in the Alberta Minor Midget Hockey League. He averaged nearly a point a game, amassing 11 goals and 17 assists in 31 games. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Josh is a special player and a special person. His energetic on-ice presence, coupled with his maturity and professionalism oďŹ&#x20AC; the ice, will really endear him to our fans and to the community in general,â&#x20AC;? said Dragonsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; vice president Rod Knelsen. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re very proud to have another talented Drumheller product join our program.â&#x20AC;? Kluck credits parental support for his success. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Any hard work or ability I might bring to the table is only part of the picture,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My parents have been the foundation of my success to this point and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to be so great to play in my hometown in front of them and the incredible fans of Drumheller.â&#x20AC;? With his hulking size, standing 6â&#x20AC;&#x2122;9â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;&#x2122;, and weighing in at 230 pounds, you would think that Sean Sanford would spend his time guarding the blue line, if not the low post on a basketball court. In fact, he spent his time playing for the Missoula Maulers in the North PaciďŹ c Hockey League playing both centre and defence. The Arizona-born prospect had ďŹ ve goals and 16 assists last season. Known for eďŹ&#x20AC;ectively combining his intelligence and vision of the ice with his strong skating ability and imposing physical presence, Sean enters the AJHL as the biggest player ever to don a Dragonsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; jersey, and as one of the tallest players ever to play hockey at a competitive level. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sean is just such an impressive athlete. His combination of mobility, reach, width, and height is truly unique, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s clear that heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s worked extremely hard to develop the agility and versatility that he brings,â&#x20AC;?

And the answer is... Thank you to our readers who contacted us after last weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s edition of inSide Drumheller to let us know the answer to our question. The above moth, found in Gunnar Mortensenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s yard, is in fact a Polyphemus Moth, from the family Saturniidae, the North American giant silk moths. Its average wingspan is 15 cm (6 inches), and it gets its name from the Greek myth of the Cyclops Polyphemus. inSide photo by Gunnar Mortensen

A baby moose proved a little too wily for Fish and Wildlife officers and volunteers as they tried to wrangle a set of twins, orphaned in a car collision. On Wednesday evening, June 16, in a collision on Highway 10 near Rosedale, a cow moose was killed, leaving two very young moose to fend for themselves. Fish and Wildlife officer Bryce Jensen said when they saw the mother moose the next day they could see she was actively lactating to feed her young at the time of her demise. They also learned of a reported sighting of the youngsters as well as tracks. Knowing the young animals would not survive if left on their own, and knowing they had fresh tracks, Fish and Wildlife officers and volunteers gathered to try to capture the animals. One was on a piece of land owned by Clayton Schrock near the accident site. Late Friday afternoon the group

assembled to attempt a rescue. They targeted one. While six of the volunteers held snow fence, the other eight went out pushing the bush to ﬂush out the moose. They had the youngster in their net, but it managed to wriggle its way out. Jensen says they probably will not attempt to rescue the animals again unless there is a very good sighting. He explains that at their age there is a good chance they may not have survived the week.

He did oﬀer one glimpse of hope. While out spotting for the moose, they came across another cow in the bush. While it is inconclusive, he says it may be possible this second adult moose could have “adopted” one or both calves. He has seen this in deer populations where other female animals have taken over mothering orphans, and it may be possible this is the case with moose as well.

A moose cow was killed on Highway 10 on Wednesday, June 16 in a motor vehicle accident. Last week Fish and Wildlife officers and volunteers attempted to rescue one of two orphaned calves but were unsuccessful. filephoto

Cool cruisin’ Bud Wilke has this week’s inSide Ride. He was spotted getting his trike ready for its next road trip. He and his wife have put about 61,000 kilometres on their Honda Goldwing they bought brand new in 1996. The machine is powered by a 1500 cc horizontally opposed flat six cylinder engine and last year he had the bike “triked.” This was to accommodate more load, and add stability as the couple pull a trailer and camp on their journeys. The Wilke’s ride has toured as far as California and Arizona, and after he finishes cleaning off some road tar, they will be headed through Montana and B.C.

until August 26.

Coal Mining centennial: detectives needed to help tell Drumhellerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s story There is also another source right here in Drumheller, where volunteers from the community could lend a hand in this detective work by going through The Drumheller Mail archives at the public library â&#x20AC;&#x153;Every time I go to the library and scan old editions of The Drumheller Mail, I am fascinated. I learn stuďŹ&#x20AC; about the city that I have never known before, it is a lot of fun,â&#x20AC;? said Digby, adding that if volunteers could take one year each, then the task becomes a more manageable one. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are going to learn some amazing stories, some heroic ones, some tragic ones. It is something that as a society, we feel really moved by. Our only frustration is we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have the capacity to do it all ourselves, we would love to just invest all the man hours ourselves in doing this because we love to learn about all this, but we just donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have man power to do it, so we will deďŹ nitely need help from the community.â&#x20AC;? Volunteers who would like to help researching The Drumheller Mail archives should contact Linda Digby at 403-822-2220 to register their interest.

QUOTE

Drumheller has a big story to tell, and the Coal Mining Centennial committee, formed to plan a centennial celebration of the birth of the ďŹ rst coal mine next year, has lots of ideas to tell it. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Plenty of great ideas came out from the public forums,â&#x20AC;? said Atlas Coal Mine Historical Society executive director Linda Digby, adding a lot of their realization will depend on the level of interest in the community for people to see them through. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Every time I go to the library and scan old editions of The Drumheller Mail, I am fascinated. I learn stuff about the city that I have never known before, it is a lot of fun!â&#x20AC;? Linda Digby

One of the biggest tasks ahead is to compile a list of the miners to be included on a memorial dedicated to those who lost their lives working in the mines. A list was compiled some years ago, however Digby explained to The Weekender they want to try to substantiate those names to ensure nobody gets left out. Some volunteers have oďŹ&#x20AC;ered to research the Glenbow Archives in Calgary and others the Provincial Archives in Edmonton.

The centennial Coal Mining committee is looking for volunteers to go through Drumheller Mail archives at the Public Library to help compile a list of coalminers to be included in the memorial.

Drumheller to bloom without blooms this year Weekender

Drumheller will not be entered in the Communities in Bloom (CiB) competition this year, co-chair of CiB, Trish Parker, recently announced, but will remain a Friend of Communities in Bloom. When CiB judges visited the area last year, the Drumheller valley received 4 blooms and a special mention for community involvement for overall performance in criteria that highlighted the community’s effort in environmental responsibility and beautification. Impressed by much about what Drumheller had to offer,

the judges also found the area was missing many of the ﬁne details to be awarded the top 5 blooms Drumheller received in 2006 and made recommendations on how to improve the grading. “The CiB judges who visited us last year gave us some excellent recommendations and we are working on implementing their suggestions. We have decided to spend our efforts doing this instead of bringing the judges to town this year.”

We have decided to spend our eﬀorts doing this instead of bringing the judges to town this year.” She added that the group was still working diligently on beautifying Drumheller “One Block at a Time” and that they had partnered with many stakeholders to beautify the entrance to Historic Downtown by the Atco Electric building.

organizing a Garden Tour in partnership with the Garden Club and the Badlands Community Garden Society. “CiB in Drumheller is only a small part of bringing this town to a world-class tourist destination. All parts of the community must get involved and work together to make this happen,” Parker concluded. Some of the recommendations pointed to a need for the Town of Drumheller to increase personnel to look after the green spaces. Al Kendrick, infrastructure services director told inSide Drumheller the town has addressed some of the problems mentioned in the judges’ report, adding they were not big enough to hire an expert from Olds College to dedicate time to tree and urban forest management but they hire contractors when needed. “I don’t think people realize the size of Drumheller. It is 125 square kilometers, and for what we have for staﬀ, they do an absolutely excellent job of going around and keeping it in pretty reasonable condition in my opinion,” Kendrick said, adding the department was tied to a three-year budget. Councillor Sharel Shoﬀ told inSide Drumheller she felt the town should be looking at the

green space as beautifying Drumheller is important for the residents and also for visitors. “The budget is due in the fall but we are already talking about it a little bit now,” said Shoﬀ. “I will check to see what

the budget is and what we are spending it on and if there is any chance of having a little help.” In the meantime, Parker said that the CiB would welcome new members to join and help create an award winning community.

Drumheller was awarded 4 blooms in 2009, following a visit from Communities in Bloom judges. This year, Drumheller will not be entered in the competition, the group will instead work on implementing the judges’ recommendations on how to improve on the 4 bloom grading. inSide photo by Pascale Taylor

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!
