Drumheller EMS participate in research study Submitted | inSide Drumheller
Simulation training exercises to help shape the future design of ground ambulances with frontline staff from Alberta Health Services – Emergency Medical Services (AHS-EMS) were conducted in Drumheller last Thursday. More than 100 EMS personnel from across Alberta are volunteering with the Ambulance Design Research Project through the University of Calgary’s Ward of the 21st Century (W21C). As the first study of its kind to be conducted in Canada, this provincewide initiative explores how EMS staff can best deliver care within the patient compartment of ambulances. Study findings will influence and improve the safety, layout and functionality of future AHS ambulances. “Our goal is to ensure we are providing our staff with a safe, comfortable workspace that will allow them to do their jobs as efficiently as possible to improve patient safety and outcomes,” says Mike Plato, Acting Executive Director of EMS business standards and operations support. “This is a unique opportunity to observe the interactions between EMS practitioners within the patient
compartment of an ambulance, while providing simulated patient care.” To create a realistic emergency scenario similar to those encountered on the job, EMS staff taking part in this emergency exercise will treat a simulation mannequin as their ‘patient’ as they provide care inside a moving ambulance. Researchers will use video and vision-tracking devices to observe and learn how treatment can be affected by the confines of an ambulance. “Our data collection will allow us to develop evidence-based design guidelines for future ambulances,” says Jeff Caird, PhD, Human Factors and Simulation Lead, W21C. “The study focuses on efficiency of care and the safety of health care providers and patients.” Through surveys and interviews, AHS-EMS staff will also give written and verbal feedback to researchers about
their experiences working in ambulances. The simulation exercises were from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Canadian Tire parking lot. Similar training exercises will be held across the province in the coming months. The study is a collaboration between AHSEMS, W21C and multiple other stakeholder groups within AHS. Funding for this study has been provided by the AUTO21 Network of Centres of Excellence (a Government of Canada automotive-sector research initiative), AHS and W21C. Research associate Greg Hallihan (centre) and Jamie Dawson set up a eye’s view camera on Matt Schulz. Emergency responders in Drumheller participated in a research study in Drumhead on Thursday, May 9. inSide photo by Patrick Kolafa

F150 versus the Badlands
ENTER TO WIN
Patrick Kolafa | inSide Drumheller
The rugged hills of the Canadian Badlands, the sun-scorched barren rock and the slickerthan-grease when wet bentonite is just what the doctor ordered to put a truck through its paces. Ford has arranged for the trucks and a gaggle of interested journalists to let us know how the trucks do. They’ll also be telling the world a little more about the Drumheller Valley. Next week, Ford, along with a contingent of writers, broadcasters and bloggers, will be descending on the valley. Their goal is to see how the new F150 pick-up truck can take on what the Badlands dishes out and to tell the story of the area. Christine Hollander, communications manager at Ford Canada is familiar with the valley after a cross-country trip nearly 15 years ago, and hasn’t forgotten it. “It’s something you don’t expect to see in

Canada, and I always told myself ‘this would be a great place for a truck program,’” said Hollander. In all, there will be 40 media personnel, including representatives from well-known outlets, including Driving Television, Motoring and MotorTrend magazine. She adds that while many on the junket are automotive journalists, there will be others who may write beyond just the
truck. Two separate groups will be arriving on May 13 and then on May 15. They will be landing in Calgary and jumping aboard a new F150, and heading straight out to the Last Chance Saloon for dinner. The next day the journalists will get a product presentation from the chief engineer of the truck Jackie DiMarco, and then will be at Dinosaur Downs to put the
truck through all its paces; everything from payload, towing, off-roading, and a fuel economy challenge. They will also get to see a little of the area. “Being in Drumheller ,obviously you can’t miss doing a tour of the Royal Tyrrell Museum, so part of the program is touring behind the scenes,” said Hollander. Last year Ford sold 106,000 trucks in Canada.

CRIME Inmate receives five and half Patrick Kolafa | inSide Drumheller
year sentence
An inmate will have 57 months to contemplate what went wrong with a plan to smuggle morphine into the Drumheller Institution. Eric Pearson was in Court of Queen’s Bench on Thursday, May 2 to be sentenced for two counts of possession of drugs for the purposes of traďŹƒcking. Pearson was found guilty earlier this year and was in possession of 190 grams of marijuana and 20 - 199 milligram morphine pills.
The charges stem from and event on April 11, 2010, when minimumsecurity unit inmates Pearson and Ashley Yardley ventured into an out-of-bounds area. Pearson kept watch while Yardley retrieved the package, which contained the drugs. OďŹƒcers in a mobile unit spotted them. Yardley was observed throwing the package on to the roof of a nearby building. Yardley was charged with possession for the purposes traďŹƒcking but was found not guilty previous to last week’s sen-
tencing. Federal Prosecutor Bill Herman argued for a 5-7 year sentence, outlining aggravating factors including his previous record, the sophistication of the operation, and that it occurred in a federal institution. Justice C. M. Jones sentenced Pearson to a global sentence of ďŹ ve years and six months. He gave Pearson credit for nine months and 21 days of pretrial custody, leaving approximately 57 months to serve.
Rideout committed to stand trial as charged Patrick Kolafa | inSide Drumheller
A bid to amend Curtis Rideout’s charge from ďŹ rst-degree murder to second-degree murder came up short in Court of Queen’s Bench last Thursday. Rideout was charged in March 2012 with ďŹ rst-degree murder in relation to the death of Linette Euteneier and
second-degree murder in relation to the death of his father Bruce Rideout. Last January, a preliminary hearing was held and Judge Grieve ruled that Curtis Rideout be committed to stand trial as charged. Defense for Rideout, Hugh Sommerville, ďŹ led an application asking that this be re-examined and that Rideout be tried for second-degree murder
in relation to the death of Euteneier. He argued there was no evidence of planning and deliberation before the events leading to her death. The Honourable Madam Justice K.M. Horner heard the application on May 2 and disagreed. She dismissed the application. Rideout’s next date in Court of Queen’s Bench is June 27.

More marijuana intercepted on Highway 9 Michael James | inSide Drumheller
The Drumheller RCMP continued their track record of stopping drugs moving along Highway 9. On April 25, at approximately 10 p.m., a vehicle was stopped on Highway 9 north of Drumheller for a minor vehicle infraction. Indicators associated with the transportation of illicit drugs were observed by the oďŹƒcer conducting the stop. Two males were arrested and the vehicle was searched. The search produced six pounds of marijuana, which was located hidden in two suitcases in the trunk of the vehicle. One of the occupants claimed ownership of the drugs and will be charged accordingly. The street value of these drugs is approximately $40,000. The name of the accused cannot be released pending formal charges. RCMP describe him as 30 years of age and a resident of Calgary. He is to appear in Drumheller Provincial Court on June 14 to answer to the charges laid against him. The accused has a previous criminal record. This amount of drugs is nowhere

near the amount found in the past on Highway 9. It is thought Highway 9 is being used to take drugs east to Saskatchewan. “Most (of the drugs) aren’t coming through Drumheller. They’re coming out of Calgary and using various highways,â€? said Drumheller RCMP Sta Sergeant Art Hopkins. “A lot of it comes down to the skills of the investigator. Constable Jones seems to have a knack for it and picks up on a lot of indicators. When time and circumstance permit, he’s out there, but, that’s not his only duty.â€? The Drumheller RCMP are not the only ones out on the highways attempting to intercept drugs. “The RCMP have roving interdiction units. Most of the time they’re in the mountains, but we’ve had them come in and do some work on Highway 9. About eight months ago, there was a big seizure by Hanna. That was them. There are reports being submitted to district and division. They use that information with their other intelligence and try to plot the most productive times for the various highways,â€? said Hopkins. “There are a lot of things being done.â€?

years ago. “We were talking and he (Noland) had a couple guitars lying around, so he asked me to sing a song. I did, and he sat back and said I was hired,” said Spooner. “I’m glad he got me out of my comfort zone.” Spooner had a long music career, which took her from Calgary, the Northwest Territories, to Vancouver. She then lived in Grande Prairie briefly and came back to Drumheller after a near death experience with flesh eating disease. She’s excited to offer a huge range of music for SpringFest fans. “I have my songs picked, but I just have too many to choose from. It’s going to be tough fitting it in an hour. I’ve got some country, some rock, a little blues, and some originals,” said Spooner. Other local artists include the Fire Coulee Bandits, Roadside Attraction, Cat Country Cougar Hunters and Courtney Morse, Jessica Nelson, and Allen Rapadas with Alas, the Ocean. SpringFest has been picking up momentum over the past few years, with the number of performers wishing to play for the festival growing.

“It’s fan-freakin-tastic! The lineup this year, like every year, just gets better. I had 95 applications for 44 slots. We had to shut down the applications a month early. I already have received an application for 2014,” said Noland. The musicians volunteer their time and all proceeds go towards maintaining k19cb
and improving the East Coulee School Museum. “The musicians are volunteering their craft. They’re spending their own gas money, so we’re incredibly grateful to them. It’s really humbling,” said Noland. SpringFest begins on Friday, May 10 and lasts until Saturday, May 12.

SpringFest begins tonight and the hype is building for the high-calibre talent scheduled to take the stage. Alongside powerhouses like Harry Manx and the Kirby Sewell Band are local artists, proud and excited to get the chance to play at SpringFest. “One of our mandates is to showcase local artists and up-and-comers,” said Brent Noland, producer of SpringFest. Darren Smylie, who was raised in Drumheller, is excited for his first chance to play at SpringFest. He’ll be performing material from his new album, Secondary Succession of Mind. “I’ve been going to SpringFest since I was 12-years-old. Now, I’m finally playing. It’s going to be all original music for me. This will be the first time I’ll be doing music from the album I wrote in December,” said Smylie. The Drumheller Mail/inSide Drumheller’s very own Devon Syvertsen is one of the local artists who will be making their SpringFest debut this year. “It feels great. I was surprised when I got the call. It’s really neat to finally pursue that dream, I’ve been wanting to be in SpringFest for a long time,” said Syvertsen. “I’m going to take this opportunity to show off my original material. I’ll intersperse a few covers to fill space, which will be songs people probably haven’t really heard around town.” Syversten has been recording original material since 2011 and is hoping to release his first album at DinoFest in June. This year’s SpringFest will be the re-debut of Drumheller native Noel Spooner, who’s coming off a long hiatus after moving back to Drumheller 13

Sudoku 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!

VIRGO - Aug 24/Sept 22 You have a few secrets you are not willing to share just yet, Virgo. That’s alright. Keeping some of your agenda private will inspire curiosity and be to your advantage. LIBRA - Sept 23/Oct 23 Libra, you may be trying to get a certain person alone so you can have some oneon-one time together. A rendezvous is possible this week. SCORPIO - Oct 24/Nov 22 Scorpio, you are at an impasse because you are second-guessing some of your most recent decisions. You may need to shift your focus to get back on track. SAGITTARIUS - Nov 23/Dec 21 The old adage that if you want something done right you have to do it yourself rings especially true this week, Sagittarius. Your skills are put to the test. CAPRICORN - Dec 22/Jan 20 Capricorn, there is a certain window of time this week when you will be extremely efficient and effective. The other times you may as well throw in the towel. AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18 Aquarius, you have to work out a few loose ends before you are free for a muchneeded vacation or just time spent doing whatever it is that makes you happy. PISCES - Feb 19/Mar 20 Pisces, sometimes love can cause pain, but this is the way to grow and learn from mistakes. There are lessons to be learned in a few days.

With profound sadness in our hearts... Through the trembling hands and voices... Through the downpour of tears... We ask all who knew Bea, and loved and cherished her, as we have, to be strong in this dark time. To take comfort in having been blessed with having seen her smile and felt her warmth and kindness, and know in our hearts she would want us not to mourn, but to celebrate her life, and to be grateful for our moments with our beloved angel. We will miss her dearly every day, and always carry with us the void in our beings. We thank you for having graced our lives and though you have been taken from us, our love for you can never be taken away. Please join us for a celebration of life, Friday, May 10, 2013 at The Royal Canadian Legion Drumheller from 3:00 p.m. 5:30 p.m. 19p

Bike trek opportunity for Duke of Edinburgh candidates Patrick Kolafa | inSide Drumheller
Drumheller students working their way towards completing their Duke of Edinburgh Award program have a unique opportunity to ďŹ ll one of the requirements, and it comes on two wheels. Sta Sergeant Art Hopkins alerted inSide Drumheller to an opportunity for students to
sign on to an eight-day bike trek from Drumheller to Ban. “This is an excellent opportunity for students involved in the Duke of Edinburgh award to fulďŹ ll the expectations for all levels of the adventurous journey requirement. Preference will be given, but not limited to, those students enrolled in this program,â€? said Hopkins. The trek is oered by
Two Wheel View and has spaces for nine students and three chaperones for the eight-day ride. This is for students over the age of 14 and is scheduled for August 20 to 27. Hopkins explains it is more than simply a trip.

SPORTS on the
run by Michael James
To get ready for the Half Marathon, I’ve been out running as much as I can over the past two weeks. Equally important to determining how to train is where to train. The right route can make the difference in having a good run. The Badlands Community Facility is a good place to run, especially when the weather outside is uncooperative. When there, I stick to the running track, though those who want to watch a little TV get a lot of mileage out of the tread mills. But, since the weather has warmed up, I’ve been taking advantage of Drumheller’s extensive trail network. I find it a bit more engaging for two reasons. The first is the scenery constantly changes and the second, and perhaps most important, reason is if you feel like quitting halfway through, you still have to get home, so might as well keep pushing yourself. During the week, I’ll do a short, high paced run along the river trail between the Badlands Community Facility and 19 street SE. There and back is about 5 kilometres, which lets me push myself to help build up my leg muscles and cardio. This past weekend was my first crack at doing a long run. On Sunday I ran/walked from the Badlands Community Facility to where the hiking trail crosses Highway 838, near the Royal Tyrrell Museum, and back. In total, that route is about 12 kilometres. I used the run/walk approach and managed to run
most of the way at a slow, plodding pace. By the end, I was pretty worn out. I find the aforementioned routes to be the easiest for me, but for anyone wanting to develop their own routes, I find Google Maps can help plan a route, especially if you’re looking to achieve set distances. I’ll have the first test of my training in under a month. I signed up with a team to do the DinoFest Triathlon on June 8, where I’ll be doing a 5 kilometre run.

Route unveiled for Tour of Alberta race Michael James | inSide Drumheller
The Tour of Alberta, the first professional cycling race held in Alberta on this scale, is set to start rolling in a few short months. On May 3, the official routes were released for the
tour. The Drumheller area has been a part of the tour since the race officially announced the host communities on March 5. During stage 3, racers, of which it is expected there will be 120, will travel from Strathmore
to Drumheller, through some of the most scenic prairie terrain the area has to offer. The racers first travel north on Highway 817, then head west on Highway 564. Once they hit the turnoff to Rosebud, they head through the rolling hills, through 19tfc
DRUMHELLER
rin Bridge and climb their way out again. Afterwards, the racers will take a scenic ride through Highways 837 and 575. The stage finishes off at the World’s Largest Dinosaur. The Town of Drumheller will get double exposure as racers pass through and then finish in town. In total, stage three of the race is one of the longest legs of the Tour
Rosebud, and then head east down Highway 9 to Drumheller. However, the stage doesn’t end there. Racers pass through town and then must make the grueling ascent up the north hill of the Valley on Highway 9/56. From there, they head to the Morrin corner and turn west. Their legs will be tested again when they have to enter the Valley at the Mor-
of Alberta at 169 kilometres. The race is scheduled to run from September 3 to 8, with the Drumheller stage on September 6. Anyone wishing to volunteer for the race is encouraged to contact Paul Salvatore, Director of Community Services, Town of Drumheller, at 403-823-1316.
