The Town of Drumheller has hired a new Community Enforcement Supervisor and he comes with a wealth of experience. Greg Peters, former Drumheller Detachment RCMP

Corporal has signed on to run the Community Enforcement Department at the Town of Drumheller. “I am looking forward to it, there’s a lot to learn,” said Peters, who had served his first shift last Wednesday. Peters has been in the

RCMP since 1984 and has served in detachments all over Canada. Previous to joining the force, he was a City police officer in Ontario and before coming to Drumheller he was in the Northwest Territories. He has been in Drumheller for about 10

“I am looking forward to it, there’s a lot to learn,” Greg Peters

He retired from the RCMP just days before taking on the new post. The position of Community Enforcement Supervisor has been vacant since the former supervisor, Darcy Nundahl, resigned earlier this year. The department now has a complement of three officers. Peters was one of two corporals at the Drumheller RCMP Detachment. Corporal Kevin Charles says the position will be filled. The position has been advertised and is now closed. Regional staffing is examining the candidates and the detachment is hopeful a new member will be announced in the next couple months.

Mayor pushing for Hollywood attention Michael James | inSide Drumheller

The Town of Drumheller has been a little star-struck for the past couple months. Since the big-budget Hollywood movie The Seventh Son wrapped up filming in Horsethief Canyon earlier this summer, Mayor Yemen has hoped to bring more movies to the Drumheller area. At the most recent meeting of the Drumheller Town Council on August 13, direction was given for the Town’s Economic Development Officer, Bob Cromwell, to do some research into the incentives other provinces are offering. “A lot of the other provinces have incentives for the movie industry that make it more attractive and lucrative to film there,” said Mayor Yemen. “I’ve asked them to look into it and see what other provinces are offering.”

Mayor Yemen was inspired to begin research into the topic after witnessing the economic impact on Drumheller during the brief few days of filming for The Seventh Son. A crew of 80 to 100 people worked, slept, and ate in Drumheller for nearly a week. “When the last one was here, all they did was the opening shot and it was like a little city up there at Horsethief Canyon. There was certainly an economical growth surge when they were in town. That was just for the opening shot. Imagine if we had a major motion picture doing the whole thing in and around the area,” said Mayor Yemen. Prior to The Seventh Son, the most recent Hollywood backed motion picture to be filmed here was in 2004. Prior to that, Drumheller had seen movies such as Unforgiven, Shanghai Noon, and Superman filmed in the area.

According to Yemen, Alberta has lagged behind other parts of Canada when it comes to encouraging movies to film here. “About 25 years ago, the average movie budget in Alberta was about $200 million and the same in B.C. Currently, it hasn’t changed in Alberta, but B.C. is seeing $2 billion,” said Yemen. “Drumheller has certainly been showcased in a lot of different movies, but it wouldn’t hurt at all, economically, to have some more.” The lack of incentives in Alberta, when compared to B.C. is contributing to movies overlooking the Drumheller area. “It’s a shame we’re being circumvented when we have so much right here. It [The Seventh Son] was a major production and when we talked to the producers and directors, we found out three of them were academy award winners. They all said the same thing, Alberta isn’t

Caged for Kennels come up with $13,000, and counting Patrick Kolafa | inSide Drumheller The male side of the Battle of the Sexes was dealt another blow on Wednesday, as the women’s team in the Caged for Kennels walked out scot-free by noon. In fact the Felines had met their fundraising quota before they were even locked up. The third annual Caged for Kennels played out on Wednesday. The Canines went up against the Felines in the fundraiser for the Drumheller and District Humane Society. Last year the Felines won handily, and it was supposed to be a year for the men to fight back, but the Felines team of Heather Colberg, Paula Sutherland, Hansine Kostelecky, Heather Lehman and Pasty Stokalko each raised more than $1,000 before were even locked up at 11 a.m. This means they were free to go by noon. The men weren’t so lucky. Cindy Wattenbarg-

er, board president of the Drumheller and District Humane Society said the men were released at about 1:30 after a crew from Drumheller Chrysler came to lend a hand and helped Ken Schinnour, Mike Bell, Darcy Emman and Ray Ainscough out of the cage. The men did win something, however. Schinnour was able to win “Musical Pee Pads,” and earned $50 for his team from Riverside Value Drug Mart. The real winner after all was said and done was the Drumheller and District Human Society, which brought in about $13,000 and counting. The barbecue brought in about $316 for the cause. Wattenbarger said the weather cooperated and The Brick in downtown Drumheller was perfect as a location for the event. The funds raised at the event go toward operating the adoption centre. Even while the event was going on, Drumheller volunteers were in the process of rescuing a dog.

Valley’s summer tourism numbers surge over 2011 Michael James | inSide Drumheller Tourism forms part of the economic backbone of Drumheller. Tourists pour money into the Valley whether it be in a short day trip of an Albertan family or a longer stay. More tourists appear to have come to the Valley this summer. Compared to last year, attractions around Drumheller are reporting a surge in visitors, a boon to a community that relies so much on a steady stream of tourists. The Royal Tyrrell Museum saw an increase in attendance of five percent over last year at this time. Last summer, the Tyrrell saw a six percent drop over 2010. “Tourism is up all over the province. The 100 year anniversary of the Calgary Stampede definitely brought more people into the province,” said Leanna Mohan, marketing and

communications coordinator with the Tyrrell Museum. The Tyrrell also noted a 5.5 percent increase in Canadian visitors, a 5.8 percent decrease from the United States. The number of visitors from the United Kingdom dropped 16 percent over last year. “The UK is normally our number one overseas. They’re still number one, but down 16 percent. When I was at a tour operator conference, they were predicting that. For Europe, their economies aren’t doing well, so they aren’t travelling as much,” said Mohan. A region that is surging in visitation is east Asia. Japan, recovering from the tsunami, is up 22 percent and China was up 12 percent. Other operators in the Valley saw increases in their visitation numbers. Since beginning of the year, the World’s Largest Dinosaur has seen an eight percent increase over last

year in visitation numbers. “It’s a positive thing for us, anytime we have an increase over the previous year is good news. We always want to boost the numbers over the previous year,” said Heather Bitz, general manager of the Drumheller and District Chamber of Commerce, who manages the World’s Largest Dinosaur. The Homestead Museum saw similar numbers to last year during the months of July and August. “We did pretty much on par with last year, so it’s been a pretty good summer,” said Gilles Danis, manager of the Homestead Museum. The Atlas Coal Mine saw a swell in their long weekend tour participation numbers this summer. However, there was an overall 10 percent drop for the summer. “The good news is all of the long weekends were record breakers for us. We even had our record participation day, where we had 594 people in one day,” said Linda Digby, executive director of the Atlas Coal Mine. “Generally our tour participation rate is what we tally. Our participation rate was down 10 percent overall, but it was planned, because we had done some price adjustments on people who chose to take more

than one tour. The incremental extra charge we add to people taking extra tours was too low last year,. “So we’re having fewer people choose to take more than one tour. Whether we have the same number of actual people is hard to measure.” Digby also noted revenue for the Atlas was up com-

pared to 2011. One hypothesis for the increase in tourism numbers is the centennial Calgary Stampede, which brought many travellers to Calgary, some of whom made the trek out to Drumheller. Another factor may be the first Drumheller DinoFest. Organizers had targeted Edmonton in their marketing efforts and many visitors took the opportunity to come down and check out DinoFest and what Drumheller has to offer. There is also the Drumheller Consortia, a joint marketing initiative. “The Drumheller Consortia group had a great campaign this year with online, TV, and radio. I feel it worked really well to bring people out from Calgary and Edmonton,” said Mohan. “We continue with our marketing efforts. We always try different ways to reach out to people,” said Bitz.

“The World’s Largest Dinosaur has been really good for us, they recommended us to just about everyone they saw,” said Danis. “That’s the thing to do, keep the tourists shuffling around and seeing different things and it’ll be good for the whole.” However, there may have been a buzzing, black cloud keeping some tourists away. “The biggest challenge for us this summer in terms of visitation was that bad bug season. People would arrive, start slapping, and wouldn’t stay long, and I don’t blame them,” said Digby. “We have anecdotal evidence that word was getting out in Western Canada that this was a bad year to come to Drumheller, because of the bugs.” As the shoulder season sets in, operators are looking forward to next summer and expanding marketing efforts to build upon the momentum generated this year.

Cheeky t-shirt helps raise funds to fight cancer

Dr. Boris Nahornick, chair of the Drumheller Area Health Foundation, accepts a donation of $2,556.46 from a determined group of local women who raised

the money through a rummage sale, a barbecue and some racy t-shirts. Pictured are (l-r) Sydnee Abbot, Bonny St. Jean, Pat Nelson, Dr. Nahornick and Kellie Krueger.

it. This sends a simple, but powerful message about their feelings towards cancer. “We sat down one day. I had just been cancer free for one year in July and at the same time we received the bad news that Sandy’s cancer had come back. We came up with the racy design for the t-shirt because sometimes that is just how I feel,â€? said St. Jean. They came up with the idea over coee, and Pat designed the logo. So far they have sold about 75 shirts. She admits the message, albeit cathartic to her, is not for everybody. “It’s about 50/50. In a small town not many want go around with a possibly controversial

logo and I can appreciate that, but my friends who have battled it, and my family who have supported me and friends who have been touched by it, everybody has purchased shirts,� said St. Jean. “As long as people keep showing an interest, we’ll keep ordering them,� said St. Jean.

A group of friends showed solidarity and resolve in ďŹ ghting cancer raising funds to help others in their battles. Earlier this summer Bonny St. Jean, Pat Nelson and Kellie Krueger held a rummage sale in the Big Room of the East Coulee School Museum. The goal of the sale was to raise funds for the Drumheller Community Cancer Centre, a cause that is near and dear to their hearts. “Myself, I am a cancer survivor,â€? said St. Jean. “Pat Nelson is our adopted grandmother. When

we moved to the valley in 2004‌ our families just got really close, her family adopted us. Her daughter Sandy is having the battle of her life.â€? St. Jean says Pat and her husband George are not able to visit her daughter as often as they like as she lives in the United States, which can be frustrating. Pat often holds an annual garage sale, and her approach is novel. She explains everything is free, but you can make a donation to cancer. “Sometimes when you are frustrated and dealing with negative things, you have to do something positive with your

emotions or else it just perpetuates those negative feelings,â€? said St. Jean. The positive came through in the form of the fundraiser. Along side the sale was a barbecue, which went toward their fundraiser. They also added another novel item that summed up their feelings about cancer. The group has made a t-shirt, which they were selling at the event. It has a simple, but rather ribald message. It simply has an image of what is commonly known as â€œďŹ‚ipping the birdâ€? with a pink ribbon, symbolizing cancer, tied around

buy treatment chairs for the cancer centre at the Drumheller Health Centre. They presented the funds to the Drumheller Area Health Foundation but were just $400 shy of being able to aord two chairs. Fundraising eorts continue. Thise wishing to donate can contact Krueger at 403822-2299 or 403-8210536.

Front yard display shares nostalgia of rails

I sometimes make appointments that I cannot, or do not keep for one reason or another. Half the time this can be attributed to a lousy memory, and not making a note to myself. Last Thursday I made such an appointment, more a commitment really. I told someone that I would see them Thursday evening to attend an exhibition of their work. We shook hands on it. Well, I got busy doing things in the yard, after which I remembered that the next morning there was a funeral for one of my dad’s old friends. I had to go over to the lodge and tell him I would pick him up around 9:30. (I ďŹ rst had to explain which old friend had died, and then had to try to get him to remember). After all this, I was getting hungry, having not eaten any supper. I drove home and put some chicken in the oven. I might as well just say it, I missed the appointment; I failed in my commitment; I shook the man’s hand and told him that I would see him Thursday evening. I forgot all of those things, even after writing a note to myself. For this I must apologize. I’m sorry. To avoid any misunderstanding, this is not about me and my lousy memory, nor am I seeking absolution. No, this is about why the commitment was made in the ďŹ rst place. Last Tuesday, as I was exiting the library, I turned to see a fellow standing near the gallery. I recognized him, and he motioned me to come over, which I did. We had not seen each other in a while, and I asked him what he’d been doing. He turned toward the art on display in the gallery. It was all his work. I must tell you, I have seen countless landscapes of the valley and the surrounding badlands, done by as many painters, but never have I seen them done in the colors God gave them. Not until then. The striations of the hills, the greys, the browns, the clays; the clumps of sage, the trees; all done in the shapes and colors we see everyday, but so rarely captured on canvas. On the opposite wall was his work in what for him was a new medium, metallic paint. Impressive, and interesting. The silver and copper give such texture and depth. This was why I said that I would come out to his Thursday evening exhibition. Marcel Deschenes is a gifted artist, unafraid to go beyond the norm. He is passionate about his art, and if you have not seen it, go to the Badlands Community Facility gallery and see it. I am sorry that I missed Thursday evening, but I will go back. Those landscapes grabbed me. Thanks Marcel.      Â

While the steam and diesel steeds that built the country are disappearing, their fans live on. Sometimes the best way to reminisce about the steam whistles and trellis bridges is through toys. Jim and Jan Milman opened their home to area seniors last Thursday to tour his extensive display of toy trains. Toys might not actually be the best descriptor, as the hobbyist has dedicated a sizable portion of his Nacmine home to the “G� (Garden) scale trains. Jim explains that about 15 years ago he saw a display of the trains at Heritage Park and was inspired to build his own track. It has been a considerable investment of time and energy, but in the end it is a detailed, all season display with a little bit of everything. His display is varied; from mountainous terrain to lighthouses; from tunnels to bridges. As a tribute to his wife’s farming roots, he has a homestead. As a former lineman for Telus, he has made sure there are a few characters working on overheads. From

coalmines to graveyards, his display is extensive and nostalgic. When winter comes, the display remains intact, and he’ll often hook an engine or two up to a plow to clear the tracks. It is not a cheap endeavour by any stretch. He has invested hundreds of dollars of track, and cars alone can cost in the hundreds of dollars. A $1,000 engine is not uncommon. There are few places to ďŹ nd such trains and cars in Calgary as well as Nanton and the West coast. Friends and family are not at a loss when looking for Christmas or birthday gifts for Jim. While his display looks complete, it is a work in progress. In the near future he wants to replace part of the track with a bridge. He is also busy constructing a shed to store his collection. This is more than just a shed. It will be connected to his display with tracks. The shed will contain lengths of track connected with switches so he can easily transport his trains to the display and back on its own power. While some miss the whistle and rumbling through the valley which has been absent for the last few years, the Milmans have to look no further than their front lawn for a reminder of the rails.

Last week the MIlmans invited seniors to their Nacmine home to check out Jim’s extensive model train display. Frank Wilzewski, left, watches the train take off after Jim Milman makes a few adjustments. inSide photo by Patrick Kolafa

Laser traffic enforcement discussion begins in Town Hall Could Drumheller join the growing list of communities that deploy photo radar, or similar devices, to catch speeding motorists? At the meeting of the Committee of the Whole, on Tuesday, September 4, members of the Drumheller Town Council were given a presentation of how automated traffic enforcement could become a reality in our community. Global Traffic Group presented their laser photo radar system to catch and fine motorists speeding in Drumheller. There would be several advantages to the

do have a lot of tourist who come through town. We have RCMP in town and I think it’s their duty to respond to these traffic incidents,” said Councillor Doug Stanford. “It sounds interesting, but I think we need to have more input from the RCMP. They would be involved a lot during the set up time. As a town we don’t want to burden people with more bills, but it could be a good idea if we get people to drive more carefully, especially in

and could provide some extra cash to the town coffers and help make the streets a little safer. Council is eager hear from residents about the possibility. inSide photo by Michael James

school zones. I think we need to have more statistics as well to see if it’s more safe,” said Councillor Sharel Shoff. “The benefit to the Town, aside from the school zones, would the red light camera. The RCMP do an accurate job on the school zones,” said Councillor Lisa Hansen-Zacharuk. “Anything that could help make our community safer should be discussed. I’m more interested on the automated camera side. We’ve heard from our Staff Sergeant in the past that this community has some difficulty with school zones and stopping at red lights. With this provider it would cost us nothing to ramp up enforcement of these particular traffic laws, so I’m interested in learning more,” said Councillor Jay Garbutt. “It seems more and more municipalities are going with it as an effective way to control speeders. It’s one alternative. One of the things Council is going to do is some fact finding. We have to explore other alternatives and the whole concept of bringing in automated enforcement. We have our fair

share of people who go a little too fast. This is a way to slow them down,” said Councillor Tom Zariski. Staff Sergeant Art Hopkins of the Drumheller RCMP was asked to give his opinion during the meeting. “Stationary cameras are phenomenal for some areas. Laser accuracy is much better than photo radar and could benefit some areas,” said Staff Sergeant Hopkins. “I don’t like the perception of it being a tax grab. If we’re going to do this, it must be done as a deterrent.” No decisions regarding the laser photo radar have been made yet. However, were Council to agree to bring in the system, Drumheller could be photo enforced in as little as three months, according to Kracher. Members of Council are eager to hear what residents have to say. “I think we have the resources to manage those areas [speeding and red lights],” said Yemen. “If people have concerns, they should contact Council and we can then ask the appropriate service to focus on those areas.”

A celebration of her life will be held at the Bethany in Airdrie and then she will be laid to rest with her son Tad, in Queens Park Cemetery, Calgary.

Word Scramble

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!

Horoscopes

LIBRA - Sept 23/Oct 23 Libra, this week you have the uncanny ability to impress people in one-on-one conversation. Start by focusing all of your energy on one particular relationship. SCORPIO - Oct 24/Nov 22 Scorpio, it’s time to assess your health and make a few changes for the better. It’s within reason to change your diet and exercise more often. It will be to your advantage. SAGITTARIUS - Nov 23/Dec 21 Sagittarius, you will find you’re incredibly efficient this week, both at home and at work. If you have time left over, you may want to help a coworker or family member. CAPRICORN - Dec 22/Jan 20 Capricorn, both work and family issues are on your mind, but you can only tackle one set of concerns at a time. Figure out which one is a priority and set your wheels in motion.

lieves it will become an annual event. “The coaches had an opportunity to seek clarification on new rules, discuss rule interpretation, and participate in productive dialogue with the game officials,” said AJHL Vice-President George McCorry. “This type of education and improved communication can have a very positive effect on our game.” Hockey Alberta Referee-in-Chief, Curtis Nichols, was encouraged by the opportunity the two groups had to interact professionally and outside of a game situation. “Anytime you can open the lines of communication, it’s a step in the right direction. We look forward to seeing how it translates onto the ice and we will monitor the effects and feedback throughout the year.”

The AJHL is currently involved in several innovative programs, including the Junior A Supplement, which was introduced by the Canadian Junior Hockey League and Hockey Canada to reduce bullying in hockey and provide a safe environment for junior-aged hockey players. The Supplement focuses on dangerous hits, repeat offenders, accumulated infractions and fighting. In August 2012, the League also hired its first-ever Video Review Manager to assist in discipline and officiating. Former AJHL official and newly appointed AJHL Video Manager, Dean Laschowski, will work with AJHL Vice President George McCorry in the areas of video review, supervision of game officials, and supplementary discipline.
