Lakelan Lavie, 6, goes cruising on the freshly fallen snow along RIverside Drive Wednesday afternoon on this unique contraption, dubbed a snow bike. This particular model was designed by his 14-year-old neighbour Travis Russell and it takes the best parts of a BMX bike frame and the runners from a GT Snow Racer for a new way to glide through the snow. inSide photo by Patrick Kolafa

Community finds support following tragedy Patrick Kolafa | inSide Drumheller

It may be a long while before friends of Chris and John Charmont see some normalcy following the tragic events in Mexico last Sunday morning. The father and son died in a blast at a hotel resort, and the reverberations have been felt around the world. There is nowhere they have been felt more, however, than in the Drumheller valley. For the ďŹ rst time since the tragedy, the Encana Atom 6 Raptors gathered for practice on Wednesday night. This is the team that Chris managed and John was a player. “It was tough,â€? said assistant coach Paul Salvatore. “As kids and parents you spend every weekend and at least one night a week together as a unit. We just wanted to make sure everyone understood what was happening and the days ahead, and we are going to support each other as parents and players.â€? The team signed a banner to present to the family at a service, and at the family’s request they are going to continue to play at a tournament in Strathmore this weekend. “We know that’s exactly what Chris and John would have wanted to see, is for us to go and play hockey,â€? he said. “We are deďŹ nitely trying to pick ourselves back up, but it will take some time to get there.â€? The team is supporting each other and showing support for their teammate. Minor hockey has designed a patch with their teammate’s name and number on it. They, along with the Atom 6 Raptors, will be wearing it on their jerseys in remembrance. The support continues to pour in for the family as the employees at Encana and Cenovus, the employers of Chris and his wife Terra, have set up a trust fund. There is also support for the young people in the valley

who knew and loved the family. Both Greentree School and St. Anthony’s are giving support to the children aected in the form of providing counselling and talking with classes. Dave Watson, family resource worker at Greentree School, said many of the children who knew nine-year-old John are in Grade 4 and are old enough to know the weight of the situation. He said that children are very much like adults in they all grieve in different ways. “They go into a bit of shock,â€? he said. “Close friends tend to be the ones hit hardest at ďŹ rst. There are kids (whose reactions) range from ‘I never knew this person,’ to ‘I just spent last weekend with him.’ So there is a wide variety or responses. The classroom is aected highly.â€? He said right now they are working on preparing the children before and after the funeral. “You never know how they are going to react, sometimes they are quite resilient, withdrawn or quiet, and sometimes the let loose, because everybody grieves their own way,â€? he said. “Our job as adults, parents, friends, and counsellors is to just let them know they are allowed to grieve, because sometimes they feel like they can’t or shouldn’t, or it is not cool. We need to let them know there are ways to do it, and they can choose the way they do it.â€? He said parents play a big role in helping the youngsters along, and Greentree School has sent home materials to help families work through the response to this tragedy. Grief may come suddenly or it may linger for some time. It may come out at a later date, or reappear down the road. “The thing we need to ready ourselves for is to be prepared for their individuality,â€? said Watson.

This patch will be worn by Atom hockey players in memory of their teammate John Charmont, and his father Chris, who managed the Atom 6 Raptors. submitted

Investigation revealed Stout was in the process of catapulting ďŹ ve packages into the Institution grounds, which contained cell phones, chargers, 56 grams marijuana resin and 34 grams of compressed marijuana. There was also indication there was $1,000 cash, but it was not recovered. Stout was found dressed in black with his face painted. He told investigators he was dressed as the grim reaper, and was lost on his way to a Halloween party.

Judge Les Grieve, in handing in sentencing, pointed out that drugs are a real problem in the institution and at times they are sending inmates to ďŹ ght for their lives. He made reference to Justin Wood, who two weeks ago is believed to have died of a drug overdose at the Drumheller Institution. Stout is 29 years old and has an extensive criminal record, with 18 convictions since 2003. He was sentenced to two and half years in prison for each count to run concurrently.

When students head to class in the newly renovated junior high and high school in the Riverside area, they will be proud to be attending the Drumheller Valley Secondary School. The name change of DCHS was made oďŹƒcial at a Golden Hills School Division Meeting on Tuesday, November 9. Former principal Tom Zariski and current principal Curtis LaPierre made a presentation to the Board of Trustees on the process of coming up with the new name and why it is ďŹ tting. The motivation behind coming up with a new name is so the school’s moniker accurately reects the reality of the school. No longer is it a composite high school, according to the deďŹ nition. In reality, the school houses both junior high and high school programs as well as the international program, a wide variety of arts, academic and vocational training programs, to name a few. According to the package presented to the Board of Trustees, the original name of the school was Drumheller Vo-

East Coulee artist Janet Grabner and husband John Dahm turned a dream of spending days creating arts and crafts into Caracol Clay Studio. After graduating with distinction from the clay and glass department of the Alberta College of Art and Design in 1989, Janet ran a pottery studio for the Calgary Board of Education for four years, teaching many classes. Janet and John found East Coulee on a Sunday drive, and fell in love with the natural beauty of the small hamlet. They moved to East Coulee in 1997, opening up Caracol Clay Studio, selling clay art and pottery to tourists, stores, and craft fairs from their gallery. Watch out for classes Janet will teach in Drumheller this coming year. The studio is open from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. until Christmas. Our Christmas sale is November 27 and 28, 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. No GST at our sale.

tended the fireworks celebration at Hyde Park in London on the eve of Diana and Charles’ wedding in 1981 – wedding themselves the following September. They immigrated to Canada six days after their wedding ceremony. “That brings back a lot of memories,” said Melony. “We were right there. I’d say London is just buzzing with excitement, like it was then.” Globally, over 750 million people tuned their TV sets to the wedding at St. Paul’s Cathedral on July 29. “I hope this one will be as memorable and not end as tragically,” said Jerry, recalling the motorcade accident which claimed the Princess of Wales’ life in 1997. “Everyone loves a wedding,” says Denise Simon, who immigrated to Canada in 1993. “Being English, I can moan about them... but I do love the pomp and circumstance, and I think that’s what a lot of English people like.” “And obviously his mother was very well thought of.” Many observers see qualities of Princess Diana in William, the eldest of the two sons she left behind. Both William, 28, and Harry, 26, use their status to further humanitarian

This year the Drumheller Area Health Foundation is celebrating 16 years of working to raise funds in support of health care needs in our community. Your contributions play a vital role to provide quality health care in our valley. Best of all, every dollar given to the Drumheller Area Health Foundation stays in our community. With your help, we’ve raised over $1.6 million to purchase improved medical equipment and other enhancements for the Drumheller Health Centre. At this time the Foundation is seeking funds to purchase a Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy set for the Operating room. We need to replace the current set as it is reaching the end of its useful life. Currently the hospital is performing 3 procedures per week with this essential tool. Use of this tool significantly reduces the recovery time for the patient. Please consider donating to this worthwhile project or to any of the other areas that the Foundation supports. Your donation will make a difference in the comfort and quality of health care provided to our patients and residents. Send your donation today or contact Linda Ames, the Foundation Secretary, for further information.

efforts Diana was so famous for. William is second in line for the throne, following his father Prince Charles. “I think he’s very much like her in many ways. He’s a people person who doesn’t have that standoffish ‘I’m royalty, look at me’ sort of thing,” said Simmons. William even proposed to Middleton, 28, with what was Diana’s engagement ring, a royally sized sapphire and diamond beauty. William and Middleton had announced they plan to wed in the coming spring. “It’s a good distraction. People get into the party mood, so it becomes a national celebration in Britain and it should be a celebration throughout the Commonwealth,” said Jerry Brett. “It may be his head on our coins.” “Everyone loves a wedding, doesn’t matter who it is,” said Simon. “It’ll give everyone a

lift, not only in Britain, but the world over.” A lift may be exactly what the United Kingdom needs, as they face a huge deficit and the possibility of a increase to their 17.5 per cent VAT point of sale tax. Ex-Pat Kathryn Chambers' cousin Teresa Chambers, who still lives in Wales, said over e-mail Wednesday, “Just when the country is drowning in national debt, let’s have a really expensive royal wedding. I’ll just leave my purse open to make it easier, shall I?” It has been reported Prince Charles will pick up the wedding bill, but the nation will be stuck with a million pound security budget for the wedding which is sure to draw millions of onlookers. Whether or not a glamorous wedding is where England’s priorities should be, Brits in Drumheller will be joined by millions more watching the extravagant occasion.

The city is being praised for having evolved, and for having the courage and maturity to elect a Muslim, a man of colour, an ethnic, to the mayor chair. It’s being said that his election heralds the end to Calgary’s redneck image, and that apparently is something of which Calgarians should be proud. To all of the above, I say “hooey”. One election, one day, one man alters Calgary’s redneck image not one iota. The city could just as well be damned and derided for not having the courage and maturity to put a woman in the mayor’s office. Besides, whoever said being a redneck was a bad thing? A redneck, after all, refers to a man who labours under the hot sun, with his neck exposed to the burning rays, hence the red neck. The term has unfortunately been hijacked by the PCL to portray free thinking, self sufficient individuals who might drive pick-up trucks, or may oppose a long gun registry, and don’t have any particular interest in culture (as defined by the PCL, of course), as dim-witted dullards who drink beer all weekend, drive large 4x4’s, and whose interests don’t extend beyond hockey and hunting. That portrayal is not true, of course, but it’s the one of choice for the PCL. Now that Calgary is sophisticated and mature in electing a Muslim as mayor, why must it mean the end of the redneck, hard working image of a great western city? I would guess Mr. Nenshi watches hockey and football, drives an economical SUV, works hard, and may even enjoy a cold beer now and then, not unlike the redneck whose image his election is supposed to have ended. I will bet money that the next big celebrity to visit City Hall will receive a white cowboy hat, and that come Stampede week, the new mayor dons Wranglers, boots and a cowboy hat. If he doesn’t, then he’s not as politically astute as some would have him. At any rate, long live the redneck image and all that it implies to those who know its true meaning. On to our own new Mayor and council. The operative word is “new”. Four of these people are fresh faces and still have some degree of awareness as to how they got where they are. They will remember for a short while that you voted them in, and so if you have complaints, issues, or just something you think they should be aware of, best get to them now. Soon they will come to believe that their station is a little higher than yours, it happens to the best-intentioned. This is why I suggest you get to them while you can still talk on a face to face basis. A fellow called me about parallel parking in front of his place of business. It has had an adverse effect on his business and he was angry. He told me he was going to write a letter to the mayor and council, and see that every member got a copy. I told him that was a nice idea, but if he wants results, to corner one of these people face to face. Phone him/her, go and see her/him, invite him/her to see you, corner one of them after a council meeting, anything and everything. Remember, and make sure he or she remembers, that they are in your employ, and their employment contract expires in three years. Another fellow asked me to mention something about those inconsiderate enough to allow their dogs to defecate wherever they please, and not pick it up. Nobody likes picking that stuff up, but it’s your dog and anything that comes out of it is your responsibility. Dog droppings don’t belong on the neighbour’s lawn or on public sidewalks. To leave it where it drops is unsanitary, inconsiderate and against the law. 46l

Community Standards bylaw passed submitted | inSide Drumheller

On Monday, November 8 the Town of Drumheller Council approved 2nd and 3rd readings for Bylaw 16-10 (the Community Standards Bylaw.) The new Community Standards Bylaw has consolidated several of the current bylaws into one all-inclusive bylaw which can be easily managed and interpreted. The first reading of Bylaw 16-10 was approved by council on Tuesday, October 12. At that meeting council requested further research and modifications to the bylaw. Council also wanted to give the public an opportunity to provide their feedback. The public responded over a three week period and all comments and recommendations were considered by council. The new Community Standards Bylaw has revised and replaced many existing bylaws including Bylaw number 14-00 Weed Bylaw, 25-98 Noise Bylaw, 24-98 Nuisance Bylaw and 21-00 Curfew Bylaw. The Bylaw

will also deal with bullying, unsightly and/ or unsafe buildings or fences, improper storage of appliances, building materials, fire pits, vehicles and flammable goods. Some advantages of this new bylaw include: • Consolidation will make the bylaw more easily understood • Helps to speed up the compliance time of reported complaints • Provides better enforcement from community enforcement officers (bylaw officers). The Community Standards Bylaw meets the goals of the Town of Drumheller and Community Enforcement by informing, educating and enforcing appropriate policies within the community. It further reinforces the Town of Drumheller’s responsibility for property protection, regulation and the provision of measures leading to a safe community. A copy of the new bylaw is available on the Town of Drumheller web site.

Food for

thought Lori Stefanishion inSide Drumheller Food Columnist Since I am sharing old recipes, here is another one that has stood the test of time. This was one of the first foods I learned to bake in Home Ec. class in junior high ... so that is quite awhile back!

2/3 cup milk 1 tsp vanilla Mix together dry ingredients, then wet. Combine until well-blended together. Pour into greased 9 x 9 inch cake pan.

My mom would always get me to make this cake when she was having company. They would be amazed to learn her young daughter had made it and would request the recipe to take home. I was thinking about the cake the other day and checked to see if my mom had kept a copy, as I never did. Hooray! She not only had it, but has continued to make it on occasion over the years.

*Topping: 2 Tbsp. margarine or butter, softened 2 Tbsp. cream ½ cup brown sugar 1 1/2 cups cornflakes

Coffee Cake Cake: 1 ½ cups flour 2 tsp. baking powder ½ cup sugar 1 egg 3 Tbsp. oil

Mix the first 3 ingredients together. Stir in the cornflakes. Drop by spoonfuls onto batter. Bake at 350 for 40 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean. *I remember making 1 ½ times the topping - perhaps that is what everyone liked so much about it!

Institution’s wind turbine operation delayed again at the Drumheller Institution not spinning lately. Some may have noticed Fine-tuning of the turthe wind turbine installed Kyle Smylie | inSide Drumheller

Operation of the 600 kilowatt wind turbine at the Drumheller Institution has been delayed again for performance testing and fine tuning, expected to be fully operational by January of next year, Correctional Service Canada said.

bine, which was installed in July, will be taking place over the remainder of November and through December, said Correctional Service Canada on Wednesday. The Drumheller Mail reported in May performance testing was to have taken place over the summer, as well. The 600 kilowatt turbine is expected to be fully operational in January. It is expected to power 20 per cent of the Institution's power needs, and save an estimate of $95,000 a year.

19 year old sentenced for crash that killed best friend Patrick Kolafa | inSide Drumheller

A young man was sen-

tenced to an 18-month conditional sentence order after pleading guilty to dangerous operation of a motor vehicle causing death. Nineteen-year-old Stefan Schwarz was behind the wheel on the evening of June 14, 2009 when he lost control of truck. As a result, Schwarz’s best friend Shane Raisebeck, whom he had known since Grade 2, died. Defence attorney Hugh Sommerville spoke to the court saying while Schwarz never intended to drive in a dangerous manner, his lack of caution had catastrophic consequences. The court heard that on the evening of the accident, the two friends were southbound on Highway 9, descending into the valley on the North Hill. Schwarz reached for the cigarette lighter as the road curved, and his right tires went over the shoulder. He overcorrected and veered back onto the road. The truck rolled at least once, and Raisebeck was ejected. Accident reconstructionists ruled out mechanical or road conditions as factors. His estimated his speed at the time of the incident was 103 kilometres. While he was in a 70-kilometre zone, it was acknowledged the sign was not visible at the time. The agreed on statement of facts concluded that alcohol was not a factor in the incident. Sommerville described

his client’s remorse as almost endless and he has not driven or taken a drink since. Raisebeck’s mother also addressed the court in support of Schwarz. She said Schwarz is a good kid and that the tragedy will affect them all for the rest of their lives. In light of Schwarz’s positive pre-sentence report, the fact he pleaded guilty, expressed remorse and has started rehabilitation. Judge Les Grieve agreed with a joint submission from the Crown and defence that a conditional sentence order would be suitable. Schwarz is to serve an 18-month conditional sentence order, with the first six months under house arrest. The remainder of his sentence he is to abide by a curfew. He is prohibited from alcohol for the duration of his sentence and his driver’s licence will be suspended provincially. Judge Grieve also fined Schwarz $2,000.

Six senior high girls Dynos are saying goodbye to their head coach after being brought up by her through their entire high school career. Ann Wade will be relinquishing her role as head coach of the Dynos. The team took second at regionals over the weekend against Prairie Bible Institute, Three Hills, and Oyen in the tournament. They lost to PBI in the ďŹ nal. If the girls fail to place in zones this weekend in Strathcona, their season, and Wade's role, will be

They are Nikki Broom, Shelby Gerlinger, Kacey Blanchett, Taylor Schellenberg, Jenna Hein, and her daughter Paula Wade. “They all stuck together... they all have a great love of support. I’ve been happy to do it for them,� said Ann, who’s been coaching sports for 10 years. “I’ll miss them.� “She’s practically our mom,� said Nikki Broom.

“She was always encouraging us to give 110 per cent every time we’d step onto the court.â€? “We love her so much and appreciate everything she does for us – all her hard work coaching us deďŹ nitely showed in each of my teammates' skills and ability to play.â€? “It was very inspirational,â€? to have her mom as her coach, said Paula Wade. “She always knew when a girl was down and how to keep our spirits up. “She always treated me like one of the girls. We’re pretty much all family on that team.â€?
