The Badlands Community Facility got another big donation this week. Long time Drumheller area residents Jess and Esther Nielsen have given the BCF a gigantic $50,000. According to Esther, the construction of the BCF was a long time coming. “We have wished for something like this in Drumheller for a long time. I used to travel to other towns and see what they had for community centres,” said Esther. “I used to think about how this could happen in Drumheller and now it’s happened. I’m really happy to see it.” Jeff Hall, BCF Fundraising chair, greatly appreciated the

Tyrrell unveils Sea Dragon in newest exhibit

Randy Owens “The bikes come out, I own one.”

“It’s a great kick off for the public component of our campaign. It’s great to see people like Jess and Esther want to step forward and give such a significant personal contribution. Hopefully that momentum will continue to build,” said Hall. Jess and Esther have been residents of the Drumheller area since roughly 1960. The two owned a farm near Drumheller for many years. After the donation was presented, the two were given a tour of the building from Community Facility Fundraising Committee chair Jeff Hall (left) and May- Mayor Terry Yemen and Hall. or Terry Yemen (right) accept a donation of $50,000 from Esther and “It’s a beautiful building,” Jess Nielsen.

The Royal Tyrrell Museum is showcasing its latest exhibit this weekend, dubbed “Alberta’s Last Sea Dragon: Solving an Ancient Puzzle.” The Sea Dragon refers to the spectacular specimen that is the centerpiece for the exhibit. Five years ago, a Tyrrell Museum crew excavated an enormous Elasmosaur, a type of aquatic reptile, from the Korite Mine near Lethbridge, Alberta. Elasmosaurs are a type of Plesiosaur characterized by their barrel-shaped bodies, long necks, and small heads. The Sea Dragon is a new species and was named Albertonectes vanderveldi, after the Korite Mine founder Rene Vandervelde. When Dr. Donald Henderson and the Tyrrell crew excavated the beast, they found nearly a complete animal. However, the most important part of most fossil animals was missing, the head. “It’s something new, but without the head you’re looking for a collection of autapomorphies [unique characteristics] in the skeleton,” said Dr. Henderson. The most striking feature of the specimen was the length of its neck, which was comprised of 76 vertebrae. There

were also numerous, finer detail, differences that warranted it being named a new species. The second aspect of the new exhibit is to illustrate how palaeontologists use the

scientific method to learn about these ancient creatures. “One of the most frequent questions we get is ‘how do we know?’ We look at alternative ideas in several places and explain what a scientific hypoth-

esis is and how we test it,” said Dr. Henderson. The exhibit does not only feature the new Elasmosaur, but has a Mosasaur, another marine reptile, for contrast. Mosasaurs differ in that they have larger skulls, generally stout teeth, and short necks. “We wanted to contrast the two radical different feeding styles. They’re not overlapping in feeding, so they can coexist,” said Dr. Henderson. “We wanted to highlight that these animals didn’t live in a vacuum and lived with all sorts of other animals.” Other displays will show how Elasmosaurs are related to other animals and how they evolved. The group is often thought to be dinosaurs or fish, but is neither. There will also be a section showing how the age of fossils is determined. The specimen is another fruit of the close relationship between the Tyrrell Museum and Korite Mine. Since it’s discovery, the Tyrrell Museum has collected numerous fossils from the mine, including a remarkable Mosasaur collected this past February. The new exhibit is opening this weekend at the Tyrrell Dr. Donald Henderson stands beside the impressive new animal that Musuem.

Walk a Mile tops $13,000 Patrick Kolafa | inSide Drumheller In all, 61 brave men of Drumheller and area, staggered, teetered and hobbled their way to raising $13,000 to help the struggle against violence. The second ever Drumheller Walk a Mile in Her Shoes went Wednesday morning. A parade of men, some in sandals, many more in red pumps, a few skirts, stockings and even a feather boa headed out along Highway 10. While it was a fun, and sometimes painful way to make a statement and raise some funds, the seriousness of the cause was not lost on the participants. Cindy Stelmaschuk, President of the Big Country Anti Violence Association reiterated the words of participant Joe Legacy, “The

whole purpose is to be uncomfortable for a mile when so many women are uncomfortable for their whole lives.” The group mustered at the Drum FM parking lot and paraded to the Drumheller Co-op where they enjoyed a barbecue. Many received generous draw prizes, sponsored by local businesses. For the second time in as many events, Fraser Beebe was the top fundraiser, bringing in $1,956. While participation was up from 50 to 61 over the last event, the total this year was down from the $19,000 the inaugural walk brought in two years ago. The funds raised at the event stay in the community. Stelmaschuk explains part of the money raised will go towards a transportation fund to assist

women to gain access to emergency shelters, prevention counselling education and training opportunities. Some of the funds will also support the Association for Communities Against Abuse which serves East Central Alberta. This will be used for eduction and preventive programs as well as treatment programs for victims of emotional, physical and sexual abuse. The Wheatland Shelter, which supports the area with crisis services is also supported by Walk a Mile in Her Shoes. Participants came from all walks of life. Members of Drumheller Town Council and staﬀ were on route, as well as business professionals, those working in the social services, tradespeople and community leaders. Don Yavis, principal of Morrin

School put on heels and took on the course. “I have been teaching for 30 years and we are dealing with issues of this kind. Kids don’t pick their parents and don’t pick their situation, they end up where they end up,” said Yavis. “I thought this was important, if we can help out any parents. It takes a brave woman to step up and get out of those situations.” His participation also sets an example for students. “Any time you can do something within the school to show it is not just about the kids in the school, it’s about community, it’s

global now. We want them to make sure they know they can do something for someone else,” said Yavis. Stelmaschuk is grateful for the community support. Scores of businesses supported the walk in various ways. Her highest praise was for the walkers themselves. “There is an old saying, you can’t understand another person’s experience until you walk a mile in their shoes. Thank-you everyone of you gentlemen, because now you understand. You have walked that mile,” said Stelmaschuk.

February by Lisa Moore

Lori Stefanishion inSide Drumheller Book Columnist

“FEBRUARY” was our book to read in May. I can speak for all of us in that we enjoyed the scrumptious fare presented by our hostess more than we did the novel. As we dipped our garlic-infused baguette slices into balsamic and oil from Provence, we were transported across the sea in our imaginations for some time. We returned to the east coast to review Lisa Moore’s account of a woman named Helen who loses her husband to an offshore drilling rig off the coast of Newfoundland. The story encouraged some discussion on grieving as well as the spouses who are left behind. The book can be described as a jumbled photo album as the story bounces back and forth between past and present. Moore uses a lot of symbolism in her writing. Water is a central force in events of the story. The balance of life and death begins with Helen’s husband’s death, finding out she is pregnant and then her son’s discovery of becoming a father himself. We thought this book would be a good read for someone who has gone through the grieving process and is able to identify with much of the central character’s plight. For others, they will find nothing much happens as far as a plot. I felt it was a book that wouldn’t really matter if you finished it or not because you know there will be no climactic climb to the end. You will simply find out how Helen survives the many years she has spent in loneliness. This author has some lovely descriptive pieces in the story, but I am one who becomes slightly annoyed when it begins to distract from the story. I think there is a fine line that is easily crossed when description loses its purpose in the actual narrative. I tend to ask, “What’s the point?” when I come across lengthy portrayals with no bearing on the story. To be fair, I know there are people who adore this style and can lose themselves in those moments. I would say this is a “love it or leave it” type of book. It’s a good “beach read.” Once again, we have a message about survival that we seem to find in most of the books we read. Human nature always lends itself to an interesting perspective on life and gives us cause to examine our own lives and take into account our blessings. We look forward to our next read by Corban Addison. Set in the seedy underworld of Mumbai, “A Walk across the Sun” promises to be a book that is hard to put down. 20m

East Coulee was alive with the sound of music this past weekend. The community was buzzing with musicians and festival attendees enjoying the beautiful weather and rockinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; tunes. Beginning Friday, May 11, and lasting throughout Saturday East Coulee hosted the 2012 SpringFest. The Community Hall, East Coulee School Museum, and East Coulee Hotel & Tavern were packed all day, with nary a seat to be found (except between acts). â&#x20AC;&#x153;It sure felt good. Looking at the rooms, they were full early in the day, a lot of smiling faces, and the weather was great,â&#x20AC;? said SpringFest president Brent Noland. Musicians, both local and from far and wide, oďŹ&#x20AC;ered a diverse musical menu from folk to rock nâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; roll and everything in between. As of press time, attendance ďŹ gures were not available, but Noland estimated that revenue from the festival is up 20 to 25 per cent over the previous year, which suggests an increase to attendance. All of the revenue, minus expenses, from SpringFest will go towards funding the East Coulee School Museum. The money will go towards operations, bills, staďŹ&#x192;ng, and, quite possibly helping to pay for a new heating system.

inSide Drumheller has an inside look at the new dinosaur which will be placed in the very near future in downtown Drumheller. The Drumheller DinoArt Project set a goal last year to begin adding new dinosaur sculptures to the town, and refurbishing the existing models that have made the town famous. The ďŹ nal touches are being put on its latest installation. John ShoďŹ&#x20AC;, president of the DinoArt Project describes Theropod sitting on a bench in downtown Drumheller. They have gone away from the realistic look to a playful cartoon-like style. He is impressed with the small details, including the sundial watch, bouquet and bow tie. The dinosaur will be installed at the corner of 3rd Avenue and Centre Street near Gusâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Corner Restaurant. He is sure to be a favourite for residents and visitors alike and will possibly end up in hundreds of photos commemorating a visit to the valley. The DinoArts Project received a donation of a bust of a T-Rex from the Royal Tyrrell Museum. Originally they were looking at placing the bust near the three way stop at the south end of Centre Street, however ShoďŹ&#x20AC; said there were a few issues with being able to mount it in such a way that it would be out of harmâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s way from climbers and potential vandalism. They have made arrangements to instead install the bust inside the Badlands Community Facility. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It will be a much nicer location,â&#x20AC;? said ShoďŹ&#x20AC;. These endeavours have kept the committee busy, however as the warmer weather sets in, the pace picks up even more. ShoďŹ&#x20AC; said they are making an inventory of the dinosaurs, and their condition to see how many need repairs or reďŹ nishing. Already volunteers armed with paint brushes have been busy this spring. One dino on North Dinosaur Trail has been repainted with a Flintstone-like motif. As they near completion of their inital projects, ShoďŹ&#x20AC; says the committee is looking at stepping up its fundraising eďŹ&#x20AC;orts. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t done a whole lot of fundraising this year, we wanted to get last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s project installed and then be able to show people what it is going towards rather than trying to raise money with nothing to show for it,â&#x20AC;? he said.

The Drumheller Valley is a unique, scenic valley, created by millions of years of erosion by wind and water. About 65 million years ago, dinosaurs roamed the hot tropical swamps and forests that covered this area. Today, the fossilized remains of the dinosaurs can be seen in museums all over the world, and the lush vegetation exists as coal seams throughout the area. The Valley was first inhabited by Thomas Greentree, who, in 1902, built his homestead on what is now the Town of Drumheller. The Greentree House became a stop-over place for early pioneers coming into the district. It was Sam Drumheller who first exploited rich coal reserves

in the area and conceived the idea of a townsite in the Valley. Jesse Gouge opened the first coal mine in 1911. In 1913, the Calgary-Drumheller railway line was opened and the coal industry boomed. More than 40 mines were soon operating in the Valley. Mining towns like Nacmine (short for North American Collieries Mine), Midlandvale, Rosedale, East Coulee, Wayne, and Newcastle developed notorious reputations as highrolling boomtowns with bootlegging and gambling. When gas and oil were discovered in other parts of Alberta, the importance of coal diminished and the economy of the Valley turned to other things.

Rides

inSide Ride gets rolling in a Coupe De Ville Braden Scriven likes to cruise around in style, and this year will be rolling up to his grad in a 1973 Cadillac Coupe De Ville. Scriven bought the car from a private owner in Balzac, and it was a second generation restore. It takes a bit of power, and a lot of gas to propel the nearly 5,000 pound car off the line, but the 472 C.I. V8 has no problem getting the Caddy up to cruising speeds. inSide Ride is back for the summer. If you, or you know someone who has a unique garage creation, e-mail news@ inSidedrumheller.com. Let us know and we may feature it in The Weekender this summer.

WHOare you?

ATCO Electric continues burying lines along Dinosaur Trail.

Dr. Sandi Endersby-Beekman On Tuesday, May 15 ATCO crews were out working to increase the wire size for the overhead power lines beside North Dinosaur Trail. This will enable power to be fed in both directions of the cables, and is a continuation of the project of burying the lines further up the road. Areas in North Drumheller experienced a planned power outage. inSide photo by Donella Swan

F R E E VA C AT I O N O F F E R How long have you been in the dental field? I’ve been in the field for over 20 years. I started out as a dental assistant, then decided to get my degree in dental hygiene. After that I decided to return to dental school. Where are you originally from? My husband and I are from the Brooks area. Right now we’re living in Olds with our five children but have plans to move closer. Why did you choose to come to Drumheller? My sister and her family live here and I heard there was a demand for a dentist in town. It was a fantastic opportunity. What are you looking forward to most by coming to Drumheller? It seems like a friendly community. I really look forward to getting to know the people, serve and become part of the community. Was there any other profession you had considered before taking on the dental field? I’d considered education. Possibly teaching elementary school. However I was always interested in dental. I

had braces as a kid, so I understand what a difference in confidence a smile can make. What is your main goal as the new dentist in town? I know the dentist is not always the most preferable place for people to be. I want to ensure they have a good experience and to accommodate them. I also encourage little kids to come in. I love working with kids. If you were trapped on a deserted island, what would be your essentials? I’d need a good book, my cell phone, floss and a toothbrush, and some scuba gear. What was your most memorable vacation and why? It was a family trip down to the United States. We were fortunate to take an extended holiday while I was on maternity leave. We drove down to California to see my parents, then travelled to Florida. It was great family time and we probably won’t have time to do a trip like that again, or maybe until we are retired.

Horoscopes ARIES - Mar 21/Apr 20 Expect to expend a little energy this week to get the job done right, Aries. Leaving it up to others is not the best way to go in this instance. Step up.

LIBRA - Sept 23/Oct 23 Don't expect this week to go smoothly, Libra. But that doesn't necessarily mean it will go badly. It's just full of distractions and interruptions.

TAURUS - Apr 21/May 21 Taurus, focus on the big picture or nothing will get accomplished. It's too easy to get lost in all of the little details. Follow through on the task at hand.

SCORPIO - Oct 24/Nov 22 Scorpio, you may be feeling sensual and romantic for the next few days. It could be because of all of the positive attention you have been receiving lately.

GEMINI - May 22/Jun 21 Gemini, someone will catch your ear and it will only serve to confuse you. You won't know what to make of it but don't get worried. It will all begin to make sense once a few pieces fall into place.

SAGITTARIUS - Nov 23/Dec 21 You may feel happy when a friend or family member comes over to visit, Sagittarius. You have been waiting for some company for quite a while. Enjoy the visit.

CANCER - Jun 22/Jul 22 Lots of people need your help, Cancer. Focus all of your energy on helping others for the time being. You will feel good about your efforts and the good karma that results from them.

CAPRICORN - Dec 22/Jan 20 Capricorn, your mind will be all over the place this week unless you find someone to help you get focused. Think of it as having a babysitter who can call you out if you start to stray.

LEO - Jul 23/Aug 23 Leo, you need to figure out how to turn all of your great ideas into workable projects -- especially ones that can make you some money. Get started on a plan.

AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18 Aquarius, you will be amazed at the results when you finally set your mind to something. Stick with what you're doing and enjoy the ride.

VIRGO - Aug 24/Sept 22 Change will be all around you, Virgo. While you're not overly excited about it, you realize change is essential to growing in your life and career. New work arrangements need to be made.

PISCES - Feb 19/Mar 20 Pisces, help around the house or at the office this week and the work will benefit you and all of the other people with whom you interact.

Learning the gears and loving it Donella Swan | inSide Drumheller

The breeze stayed low, as the sun beat down on the dry earth at the D.O.R.V.A. MX motocross track on Wednesday, May. 16. There was a distinct sound of a small engine working its way through the dirt. Katelyn Hudgeon ripped across the intermediate track on her dirt bike. “It’s scary when you ﬁrst start. But it’s thrilling when you start to feel in control,” Hudgeon said while climbing oﬀ her bike to take a break from the afternoon heat.

Having only been riding since March of this year, Hudgeon looks like she is having the time of her life in the driver’s seat. “I got bored watching [my boyfriend] Greg ride so I thought I’d come out here and show him how it’s done,” she said with a grin on her face. Although Hudgeon looks to be fairly comfortable on her bike she explained it wasn’t that way to start. “I’ll admit it was a bit scary for me at ﬁrst. But it’s a great passtime and good exercise too.” Hudgeon said there is also a

great social aspect to being out at the track. She said it’s a great place to spend time with friends and family, and is a chance to get outoors. Hudgeon and her boyfriend try to get up to the track whenever they have

spare time or the weather permits. She said there is no other sport she has tried that is quite like it. “I’ve heard it’s the 2nd or 3rd most physically demanding sport,” Hudgeon said.

The D.O.R.V.A. MX track is open for riders of any skill level. Memberships and day passes are available. For more information go to www.dorvamx.com.
