PHOTO COURTESY OF THE UKRAINIAN CULTURAL HERITAGE VILLAGE

Bruce McGregor, farm program co-ordinator at the Ukrainian Cultural Heritage Village, will be harvesting with the assistance of staff and volunteers this Sunday, Sept.

8 at UCHV for what promises to be one of the best attended events of the season. Visitors are invited to kick-off the festivities at the hemp pancake breakfast.

Travel back in time at the Ukrainian Cultural Heritage Village Michelle Pinon Editor The hands of time will be turned back to the early 1920’s on Sept. 8 at the Ukrainian Cultural Heritage Village.

History will come alive for visitors who will be able to watch farm program staff and volunteers cutting, threshing, stooking and delivering grain via horse drawn wagons to the elevator.

There they will be able to see the grinding of the grain with the zhornnal grist mill. Red Fife Flour will be available for sale, along with many other homemade products at

the gift shop and village market.

The atmosphere is guaranteed to be buoyant, and visitors will also have many other opportunities to experience living history as they send telegraphs, can vegetables, make sour cabbage (kapusta), dry herbs and flowers, braid onion and garlic, and try their hand at feather stripping and quilting.

It all starts in the field and ends up on the fork.

No celebration would be complete without the culinary, cultural and creative delights.

Visitors will be able to enjoy traditional

Ukrainian fare, view the art display, see the ‘Journey to Canada’ exhibit or enjoy the sounds of the musical entertainers.

“If we didn’t have volunteers; this wouldn’t happen,” says Bruce McGregor, who has headed up the farm program for the past six years.

Around 30 volunteers are required to help out with all of the activities as more than 2,500 visitors are expected to descend upon the village for one of its biggest events of the season.

McGregor says there’s always room for more

volunteers, and strong ly recommends that anyone interested in helping out call the village earlier in the week.

What’s also interesting is that some of these volunteers have been coming for 30 years adds McGregor. “We’ll probably have nine teams of horses working that day.” There will be so much to see and do throughout the day, but the main attraction will be the threshing demonstration that will go from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.

“All of our machinery is from the 1920’s.”

Going full steam ahead will be the 1922

International Harvestor with its 1530 gas powered McCormack engine, and McGregor guarantees there will be people wanting to go stooking and bundling for old times sake, and to show their children, grandchildren and great grandchildren how to do the harvesting by hand. “It’s a real highlight for them.”

Being able to pass on age old techniques and traditions is one of the most interesting and satisfying aspects of the celebration. It is also a rarity to have the equipment, knowledge and skills to pass on to the

present generation, notes McGregor.

There will be a lot of reminiscing, and McGregor loves to tell stories to the visitors who will leave with a remarkable and unforgettable experience.

Travelling through time is a priceless gift, and one visitors will be able to cherish for the rest of their lives thanks to McGregor and the rest of the crew at the village.

So sit back and enjoy the trip back in time.

Play and learn programs separate yet distinct Directors explain the differences between the programs as they prepare to launch new sessions Michelle Pinon Editor Great minds think alike.

Those are the minds of Debbie Holland and Marianne Barrett.

Being on the same wavelength does have its advantages, and for the local program directors it has led to naming of two different programs with almost identical names which has created an interesting and potentially mutually beneficial situation.

While the Play And Learn (PAL) program is a family literacy based development program under the auspices of the Lamont County Community Adult Learning Council, the Play And Learn at School (PALS) program is an early intervention program for children operated by Elk Island Public Schools (EIPS).

Holland points out

that the PAL program is designed to enhance parental skills, while Barrett points out the PALS program is child focused.

The PAL program is held once a week for parents and guardians of children from ages zero to six from midSeptember to early November at different venues in Bruderheim and Mundare. The PALS program is held two days a week between September to June at Mundare School and Lamont Elementary School.

Barrett, director of early learning for EIPS, says they decided to change the name of the program last year. “We wanted to emphasize the play aspect.” When they “Googled” the name they had chosen for the program, there was no listing for the PAL program, so that’s when they went ahead with

the renaming of the REACH program to the PALS program.

It wasn’t until Holland had heard EIPS was looking for an instructor for its PALS program that she realized the change and what potential impact it could have on both of the programs.

That is why both organizations decided to make the public aware of the two distinct and separate programs with an advertisement and article in The Lamont Leader.

Both Holland and Barrett agree the coincidence will actually better inform parents of the programming options and assist with scheduling of other programs and events in the communities they serve. So with the end of summer holidays, the timing couldn’t be any better to spread the word.

New communications director at Lamont County Michelle Pinon Editor

Heather Atkinson feels right at home with Lamont County, and her new role as economic development and communications officer.

The Lamont resident is thrilled with landing the job as well as the variety of duties and challenges that go along with it.

She didn't even mind having her feet landing full force into the fire instead of dipping her toe gently into the water.

But metaphors aside, Atkinson is enjoying all of the diversity that go along with her many responsibilities.

Having extensive newspaper advertising, experience in the web press releases, newsletters, indusletters try is a a n d defiface to n i t e face or plus, verbal a n d contact s h e on the stressphone. es the imporHaving tance t h e of conveying t h e most up to Heather Atkinson d a t e inFocus a n d accurate information via page published weekly website, social media, in The Lamont Leader email, as well as more also enhances her and conventional methods as the county's reach by

The county also began publishing notes from its monthly meetings in the newspaper this past month, which Atkinson feels will be extremely beneficial.

So there's absolutely no doubt Atkinson will never get bored, and she hopes people won't shy away from getting acquainted in the coming months.

What will the neighbors think?

It always amazes me how some people are more concerned about what the neighbours might think than about expressing their own personal opinions.

I guess that is also my opinion as the expression of thoughts and feelings are the basis of communication in my point of view.

To forfeit (i.e. to lose or be deprived of that privilege, and/or right) is perplexing and troubling to me.

I was recently told freedom of speech, the right to express any opinion(s) without censorship or restraint was something that Canadians were not entitled to, so I decided to Google on.

Contained in the Canadian Bill of Rights Part 1: "It is hereby recognized and declared that in Canada there have existed and shall continue to exist without discrimination by reason of race, nationality, origin, colour, religion, sex, the following human rights and fundamental freedoms, namely, (a) The right of the individual to life, liberty, security of the person and enjoyment of property, and the right not to be deprived there of except by due process of law, (b) the right of the individual to equality before the law, (c) freedom of religion (d) freedom of speech (e) freedom of assembly and association; and (f) freedom of the press.

As a member of the press I am going to state my belief that people are not born bad. There are many factors, circumstances and experiences which help shape, and to a certain extent, form the basis and existence of a person's life.

I was also recently reminded of that recently as a 16-year-old boy sat across from me requesting that people not judge him based on age, appearance, allegations, actions of others, or perceived guilt based on hearsay.

The importance of individual rights and freedoms should be taken seriously, and a privilege that should be exercised despite what may or may not be perceived as the truth. Many people have fought for these freedoms over the years, and we should not cast them aside for the sake of fear of what other people may think.

Chipman Centennial Celebration A fabulous Event - Note of Appreciation What an amazing celebration was held on August 16th - 18th to honor the Village of Chipman’s 100th anniversary! The organizers are to be commended for their thoughtfulness, knowledge, initiatives and expertise, their countless months of planning and cooperation, their endless hours of volunteering to arrange this paramount event.

A celebration of this magnitude required the coordination of all the dignitaries, volunteers, food services, decorations, registrations, souvenir items, historical and school displays, sponsors, entertainment nd wagon rides, the local dinner theatre, religious ceremonies, and special organizations all of which were orchestrated so successfully through careful planning, delegation, consideration , and cooperation As we often experience in our small rural centres, it is through the “blood, sweat and tears” of a very few community members who are caring, responsible, selfless people, who frequently think only of others and make these events so very special and memorable for all.

A very special heartfelt thank you to ALL of the members of the organizing committees for your tireless efforts and your dedication to your community in the your most recent successful undertaking.

As your theme suggested - you most certainly exceeded your goal to “Honour The Past... Live the

Changes to the drop off point for students at Lamont High School were formally announced on Sept. 2 by Elk Island Public Schools.

Safety concerns result in changes for EIPS Michelle Pinon Editor A recent meeting between officials with the Town of Lamont, Elk Island Public Schools (EIPS) and Alberta Transportation has resulted in changes to the drop off point for students attending Lamont High School.

According to Lisa Weder, Director of Transportation for EIPS, "The Town of Lamont requested a meeting with Elk Island Public Schools Student Transportation department and we met together with them and representatives from Alberta Transportation last Tuesday to discuss the possible removal of the crosswalk between Lamont Elementary and Lamont Junior Senior High across Highway 831. The town is interested in having the students instead use the crosswalk at the 4-way stop north of the two schools. Alberta Transportation was also in support of removing the crosswalk."

In a statement released by EIPS late Tuesday morning, Weder said that after the meeting, EIPS looked into the options available for getting bused students safely to and from the schools and decided the best option would be to drop all students off directly at

their schools. "Previously, all bused students were dropped off at Lamont Elementary and then the junior and senior high students used the crosswalk to walk over to Lamont High."

All parents of bused students attending both Lamont schools were notified about the change on the EIPS automated telephone system the previous day (Sept. 2). "The primary reason for the late notice to parents was because the meeting with the Town of Lamont only took place last week and then our student transportation department had to take a look at the options available," said Weder.

While the Town of Lamont initiated this change, and EIPS implemented the change, the final decision still rests with Alberta Transportation. "The Government of Alberta is responsible for making the final decision as to whether or not the crosswalk between the schools will actually be removed, but our bused students no longer need to use this crosswalk," added Weder.

Earlier in the summer, EIPS removed a couple of sidewalks leading up to Highway 831. That was done in response to drainage concerns and not safety concerns clarified Weder.

Beloved horse stolen from Lamont area ranch Family makes heartbroken public plea for Zulu’s safe return Katelyn Ogilvie Michelle Pinon Nothing has been the same at Rafters Ranch since Aug. 20.

The following day members of the Lamont area farm were out searching for their beloved working horse Zulu who was stolen some time between midnight and 11 a.m. the following day.

“My dad went to go ride him but he could not find him anywhere near the other horses. Dad searched our property and spoke to neighbours, still no luck. The RCMP and brand inspector have been notified. We have made and hung posters, and have taken advantage of Facebook networking to share our posts,” stated daughter Katelyn Ogilvie, who along with her brother Ty, and parents Don and Shannon are completely heartbroken and devastated by the unexplainable and callous crime.

“We all feel like a part of our family has been taken from us. I can’t think of any reason why someone else felt the need to take a horse from us or if they even realize how cruel and unfair this

is. There are plenty of people giving horses away on Kijiji to loving homes, why did they have to take Zulu? He is a part of our family and we will not stop looking for him,” continued Katelyn.

Even though Katelyn knows that writing about Zulu may not bring him back, she’s hoping that whoever took Zulu will realize how much the horse means to their family.

Zulu is 16.3 hands high, is 18-years-old, has two white socks on his hind legs and is a Red Roan with a white blaze on his face. He has the brand Rafter XX on his left shoulder.

Katelyn also wanted to tell Zulu and her father Don’s story in order for people to better understand the meaning, significance, joy, and importance of the horse in their lives.

“What many people don’t know is that my dad, while on the job as a police officer, was run down by a drug dealer in a stolen car back on Sept.

18, 1991 and announced dead on the scene. He came back with a head injury and his knees were completely

destroyed. After having his knees rebuilt, he was still told by doctors that he would never be able to walk again.

“He proved everyone wrong; he did this with the help of his love for horses and the support friends and family provided him. My dad was riding horses before he walked again with the help of his friends lifting him back in the saddle.

His strength came back, and he was soon able to walk again.”

Soon after that, her dad and mom were able to get back into riding together and attending team roping jackpots on the weekend...I remember when he (Zulu) first came home. He was an awkward looking colt with long legs and ears that pointed outwards.

We’d call him Yoda all the time. But, dad still loved his “Big Boy.” We’d watch my dad ride this horse and we hated to say anything to Dad, but we always thought he put too much trust into Zulu; he was green broke and dad would jump on him and take off for a ride. They had a special bond.”

People were always amazed by Zulu’s size

and ability. “He was a pretty amazing horse. At one point a cowboy gave my dad a blank cheque trying to buy Zulu for any price my dad would allow. There was no way dad would sell his horse.

Zulu was his pride and joy...or even his baby.

Katelyn also used Zulu when she didn’t have a horse of her own on the roping circuit. “I had Zulu in team roing, breakaway roping, pole bending and barrel racing until I bought my own horse. Zulu continued on as my rope horse and I always was so happy to be able to use him. He’d try and jump the barrier sometimes but he always made up for it by consistently getting me to the steer and helping me handle it so nicely.

“In the last couple years, my dad has been shying away from the team roping and has

started getting into the ranch roping. Zulu and dad both had to adjust to the slower paced sport, but both adjusted well together. Dad and Zulu were always a great team: my dad is a patient man and Zulu has a big heart. This is the perfect

combination for a team like them.”

If anyone has any information or has seen Zulu, they are asked to call Don at 780-975-0537 or Shannon at 780-9750150.

There was no shortage of excitment as these young students raced to the doors of Lamont Elementary School for opening day of classes, September 3, 2013.

Heroes in the Sky receives financial boost from Lamont town council for activities Michelle Pinon Editor Volunteer members of the Lamont Fire Department will be hosting its second annual Heroes In The Sky fundraising event Sept. 14 and 15.

Local firefighters will be camping on the roof of Lamont Foods during the two day event to raise money for the department. Members are hoping folks will come out to support the two day event and purchase the 2014 "Fire Within" calendar for $20.

Fire department members will be serving up hamburgers and hot dogs between 11 a.m. and 4:30 p.m.

Saturday, Sept. 14 and pancakes from 8 a.m. to Noon on Sept. 15. There will

also be a children's fun zone. On Aug. 27, members of Lamont Town Council voted in favour of donating $725 to cover the two day rental cost of the fun zone attractions.

Volunteer firefighters Andy McDonald and Rick Duiker were on hand to make a presentation to council last Tuesday, and pointed out there will be visits from Sparky the fire dog as well. "The intent of the fun zone is to invite the youth of the community to interact with firefighters that serve their community," stated McDonald and Duiker in a written letter that was previously sent to members of Lamont town council.

Members of the department will also be selling the limited addition fire-

There will be displays of fire department equipment and tools as well as a specialized fire prevention trailer onsite for the duration of the event.

Cemetary memorial service touches the lives and hearts of pioneer descendants

MICHELLE PINON PHOTOS

Members of the Gavinchuk family pose for a picture following the graveside memorial service near Hilliard on Aug. 24. Around 60 people attended the event which has been in existence since 2008.

Michelle Pinon Editor

Like a plant that takes root, people grow and take nourishment from the soil through their roots.

That was the case on Aug. 24 when people gathered to honour their ancestors at the GavinchukTomashevsky Cemetary near Hilliard.

Around 60 people gathered at the cemetary for the memorial service which has been held the fourth Saturday of August since 2008 due to the efforts of descendants who restored, and continue to maintain the grounds on a regular basis.

Two of those descendants, Willie Gavinchuk and his sister Cynthia Smith, were instrumental in those restoration efforts and feel

privileged to be able to honour their great grandparents Wasyl and Maria Gavinchuk. They even have such a strong connection that both have expressed their desire to be buried there when they pass away.

Garry Funditus remembers visiting Baba’s grave as a child and has kept that tradition alive as well as attended every memorial service since its inception five years ago. Olds resident Michael Spooner has also attended every memorial service since it began, and organizer Cassie Gavinchuk is touched by their stories and the stories of other people who gathered from near and far to pray for the souls of their deceased family members that afternoon.

Since last year’s memorial, a total of 60 markers were place on

graves of the deceased. Willie Gavinchuk says since the cemetary is non-denominational, there are many people who have not been identified because no personal knowledge or records exist. That is why he and other participants are hoping more people will see and hear about the annual event. “If anyone reading this has stories or pictures we’d like them to contact us,” added Willie. It is believed that local residents were buried in the cemetary from the late 1800’s to the 1950’s.

Following a 20 minute service performed by Father John Sembrat and Rev. Deacon Jim Nakonechny, the graves were blessed before participants travelled to Mundare to break bread together and share their common bond.

Bruderheim racing track a labour of love Michelle Pinon Editor

Back in the spring of 2007 Bruderheim Agricultural Society members Wayne Schoepp, and Vic Schneider had a vision.

They, along with fellow members of the ag. society and provincial chariot and chuckwagon racing association, decided to resurrect a vacant parcel of land and transform it into one of the premier racing tracks in all of Western Canada.

"We decided to reconstruct the agricultural grounds which had been left in a state of turmoil and noxious weeds from the dirt bikers association which been previously used the land for recreational activities.

Clearing of the property and levelling of the dirt began in June. Brian Sobkow supplied his welding

truck, while Meryl Hodgkinson welded the pieces for the metal track all winter. Then in the spring of 2007 with the assistance of Kevin Hauer, who supplied the pay loader; Stewart Maschmeyer, who supplied the tractor; Schinkinger Trucking , who hauled 30,000 yards of sand; Bill Matthews who supplied the backhoe; Lamont County who supplied the motor grader; and Shirgor Enterprises the Caterpillars.

Total cost of development and reconstruction was $200,000; and all of the work was completed in time for the Heartland Ag. Days that were held in conjunction with the Town of Bruderheim's Centennial Celebrations in September of 2008.

The Bruderheim Ag. Society recently hosted its sixth annual Heartland Ag. Days and all of the hard work and efforts of volunteers and sponsors paid off as the event was an overwhelming success which

Vic Schneider spent all summer of 2007 until Oct. 2007 moving dirt in preparation for the track

TOWN OF BRUDERHEIM WILL BE HOLDING A PUBLIC HEARING FOR BYLAW 15- 2013, THE MUNICIPAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN Date: September 18, 2013 Time: 7:00 p.m.

Place: Bruderheim Fire Hall 5112 Queen Street All residents are invited to attend to express their concerns, comments and questions.

attracted more than 3,500 attendees.

The ag. society was formed in 1975. It’s first project was the construction of the arena at a cost of $75,000.

Over the years the ag. society has been a huge contributer to minor sports in Bruderheim, and donated $15,000 to build a girls dressing room in the arena.

In 2011-’12 renovations and installation of new furnances were completed in Walker School. Total cost of the project was $40,000.

In 2013 the ag. society purchased and restored the Prairie Schooner for $15,000.

The first ever Smash and Bash event was held in Bruderheim in July of 2013. It was a huge success and much credit goes to Cody Schoepp for spearheading the effort of all of our volunteers. A total of 3,500 people attended the three day event which had more than 30 teams from across Alberta.

Bruderheim Heartland Ag Days wouldnt have been possible without our Major sponosors who have supported us in the last 7 years and all the hard working hours put in by all of our volunteers. Also thanks to all whom came out to enjoy this wonderful weekend and all events.

Great Tribute To Fred Olson. Thank you to the whole Olson family.

ATB has been in service for 70 years with 171 branches, 130 agencies and 65,000 customers.

Thank you to the Camrose Chamber of Commerce for supplying us a train for all day entertainment was able to be enjoyed by young and old!

In 1975 the ag society was formed with the executive of 5 members. In 1977 we were able to build the hockey arena. In 2007 we are able to take over the grounds that are now known as the Bruderheim Ag Grounds. Without the support of our members and community none of this would be possible. We cannot thank our volunteers enough, your hard work does not go unnoticed.

Lamont County family wins Century Award Michelle Pinon Editor Farming has its many challenges and rewards, and recently one Lamont County farm family received a special award of recognition for 100 plus years in the business.

Peter and Theresa Lysyk, along with their daughter Laine and Jade are very honoured to have been named recipients of the 2013 Century Farm and Ranch Awards.

"We feel very honoured to have received the Alberta Century Award for 100 plus years of farming on the original Burzminski family homestead and hope that in years to come our children may also reside and farm on this same property," stated Theresa, who was on hand Aug. 3 to accept the award during a special luncheon in Camrose.

Also on hand for the awards presentation was agriculture minister Verlyn Olson as well as local MLA Jacquie Fenske. Olson praised the recipients and work they do. "We are proud to celebrate the legacy of Albertans who have dedicated their lives to agriculture and who have helped shape this province into what it is today. The strength and future success of our agriculture industry depends greatly on the hard work, ingenuity and determination of our farming families."

It was Theresa's great grandfather Antoni Burzminski who arrived and homesteaded NW 3 57 20 W4 in May of 1901 together with his spouse Carolina. Their one son, Michael continued farming with his wife Anne. The tradition continued on with Theresa's parents Leo and Victoria Burzminski. (Leo was the youngest son of 11 children of Michael and

Anne Burzminski.) Then came Theresa who grew up on her parent's home quarter located east of her and her husband Peter's current residence.

Peter also grew up on a farm northeast of Mundare.

Both farms were mixed grain and cattle farms. "We were married in May of 1981 and moved to the farm in September of that year. We purchased a few head of cattle in 1982 and also began farming at that time."

Theresa went onto say: "We currently farm 720 acres which mainly consists of pasture and hayland with approximately 200 acres of annually seeded grain crops - wheat, barley, and peas; and we also have a small cow/calf herd. The calves are raised to approximately 800 pounds and then are sold as feeders."

In 1996 the farm became a certified organic operation, and in 2001 the cattle were also transitioned to organic certification. "Peter has always been interested in farming and was able to pursue this opportunity when we moved to our farm. We are both employed off the farm in Redwater; Peter as an automotive technician and I, as a business ag. advisor with ATB." Theresa and Peter's youngest daughter Jade assists on the farm with haying and combining and intends to take over the farm from us at some point in the future. Both say the highlight of residing and operating a mixed farm is the quality time spent on the farm with their children Jade and Laine.

The couple realize that much of their continued success will be dependent upon their ability to adapt to changing weather patterns and changing markets.

Since the Century Farm and Ranch Awards began in 1993, a total of 1,440 families have received plaques.

New Ft. Saskatchewan RCMP Staff Sgt. works the beat Michelle Pinon Editor

Craig O'Neill wants people to know he is always ready to listen.

O'Neill, who started as the Staff Sgt. of the Fort Saakatchewan Detachment this past spring, also wants local residents to know that he is accessible.

Staff Sgt. O'Neill has also been visible in the communities of Fort Saskatchewan, Bruderheim, Lamont, Chipman, Star, as well as other rural locations in Lamont County.

O'Neill has worked both day and night patrols in the detachment area, and always makes himself accessible and available to local citizens. "I'm seeing some really positive things going on, and I want people to know that."

He also wants people to see that he is approachable, and truly wants to build relationships.

Communication is key to success, and a big part of his job is to inform, educate, advise and interact with individuals and community groups in the detachment area. "I also want to make sure we are providing a high level of police service to Fort Saskatchewan and surrounding communities."

One of the challenges O'Neill and his staff of 30 police officers face is keeping

pace with growth and increases in population in the communities he and fellow RCMP officers serve. Education and enforcement go hand in hand, and O'Neill will be looking both inward and outward for assistance and expertise. "It's very much a problem solving thing."

O'Neill says he has a greater support web beyond the borders the detachment area, and will also use municipal and provincial resources if and when they are needed. "We work closely with Strathcona County, Two Hills and Vegreville detachments," adds O'Neill.

Traffic safety and drugs are top of mind. "Our focus will be on aggressive drivers. Drugs are always an issue we have to stay on top of educationally and with enforcement. "My ultimate goal is for people to feel safe in the community."

O'Neill encourages people to talk openly and honestly about issues and to problem solve together. He wants residents to come to him for assistance.

Being adaptable is crucial, and as an organization with more than 135 years experience, O'Neill says they are capable, willing and able to be responsive to people and their changing needs.

Youth speaks out about alleged harassment Michelle Pinon Editor

To be ridiculed is one thing; but to be harassed and publicly humiliated is another.

That is what Jordan Flanagan says happened to him last week.

The 16-year-old Lamont area resident told The Lamont Leader he and some of his friends were wrongfully accused of syphoning gas out of a truck. The driver verbally confronted him and his friends early Tuesday evening when they were sitting outside the newspaper office located on main street.

Flanagan said he and his friends were subjected to name calling and offensive language. As well, photographs were taken of him and his friends on a portable phone by the driver, who Flanagan said denied taking the photograph, claiming that when they receive a text the flash goes off on their cell phone.

"I wanted to go public because I'm being labelled a bad kid just because I live at a group home," stated Flanagan,

who was visibly upset by the incident which he reported to staff at the Elk Island Child and Youth Ranch shortly before going to the newspaper office.

"Just because other kids did bad things in the past doesn't mean that people have to carry a grudge," added Flanagan, who has been the source of mockery and derision since he began living at the group home a year ago.

Being labelled a misfit, treated as an outcast, unfairly targeted as a troublemaker, and being wrongfully accused of crimes, is taking its toll on the teenager.

Flanagan's message to people in the community is: "Don't judge ranch kids based on what has happened in the past...We're human beings just like anyone else." Being the scapegoat of other teenagers’ wrongdoings, mistakes and faults is something he cannot and will not accept. He is deeply saddened by the incident and is hoping that by telling his story that others will get to know him before labeling him as a "bad person."

“We’re human beings just like anyone else”

School-based meal programs need to be available to all Canadian children OTTAWA, Aug. 27, 2013 /CNW/ - All schools in all provinces and territories should provide meal programs to help their students alleviate hunger and poor nutrition and to support their performance at school, The Conference Board of Canada recommends in a new report from its Centre for Food in Canada.

Children and youth are over-represented among the almost two million individuals in Canada that suffer from "food insecurity" - a situation in which nutritious food is sometimes or always unavailable or unaffordable.

"As students head back to school this fall, only some will have the benefit of good meal programs operating across the country. Canada is the only G8 country without a national school-based feeding program," said Alison Howard, Principal Research Associate, and co-author of Enough for All: Household Food Security in Canada.

"Children that lack proper diets are less able to concentrate and perform well at school, which makes it more difficult to learn the skills they will need as adults. Ensuring that all children and youth have access to sufficient, safe and nutritious foods for their everyday activities are critical for a vulnerable population."

HIGHLIGHTS • Household food insecurity is defined as a state in where nutritious food is unavailable or unaffordable, or the supply is not stable. About 7.7 per cent of Canadian households were "food insecure" in 200708.

• Household income has the greatest impact on whether a household or family will be food insecure.

• Children that are deprived of proper diets are both less healthy and less likely to succeed at school, which affects their physical and economic well-being for the rest of their lives.

This report recommends that all 13 provincial and territorial governments participate in a panCanadian program that provides or manages funding for breakfasts or lunches and/or snacks in each school or school board. If programs cannot be free of charge to students, fees should be based on the income level of each participating family. Ongoing assessments of effectiveness and results must also be part of any school meal program.

Household food insecurity is associated with poor health in both adults and children. Among children in particular, food insecurity is associated with poor academic achievement, and health problems. Almost 10 per cent of households with children said they felt insecure about their access to affordable and nutritious food, compared to less than seven per cent of households without children.

In addition to implementing a pan-Canadian school nutrition program, the report identifies several other short-term and long-term solutions.

Canada is the only G8 country without a national program Cont’d from page 15 Short-term actions: • Support collaboration among industry, government, and communities to make food more accessible to households.

• Increase support for outreach efforts to the isolated and at-risk populations, such as Aboriginal peoples, lone-parent families, women, children, recent immigrants and the elderly.

• Encourage volunteerism and engagement in food security initiatives.

Long-term actions: • Improve food literacy levels, through, for example, educating the public on buying and cooking nutritious meals.

• Make public transportation more affordable for low-income households so that individuals can travel to grocery stores and other places to obtain nutritious food.

• Ensure agricultural policies address household food security through, for example, subsidies for fruit and vegetable products, producers and transportation.

• Invest in strategies to address low income/poverty, since household income is the strongest predictor of food security or insecurity.

• Track, study, and evaluate household food security initiatives to find effective programs to support and replicate.

The principal goal of the Centre for Food in Canada is to engage stakeholders from business, government, academia, associations, and communities in creating a Canadian Food Strategy —one that will meet the country's need for a coordinated, longterm strategy on industry prosperity, healthy and safe food, household food security, and environmental sustainability.

The Lamont Leader (Lamont, Alberta), September 3, 2013- 19

Lamont 4-H Showcase Extravaganza Submitted By Colette McBride If you've ever wondered if 4-H is for you, circle Saturday September 7 afternoon to the Lamont Agriculture grounds to visit with the three 4-H clubs in the county: Chipman 4-H Beef Club, Elk Island 4H Light Horse Club and the Lamont 4-H Multi Club.

Each club will have displays to showcase their 'take' on 4-H. There will also be displays showcasing events that 4-H members can get involved in outside the district: things like regional camps, exchanges and other travel opportunities. And we'll be serving up free burgers.

Chipman 4-H Beef Club. The Chipman 4-H Beef Club has been operating over 60 years and is the oldest group in the district. Currently we have 7 members who were busy with 3 projects: carcass, cow/calf and show steers.

Elk Island 4-H Light Horse Club.The Elk Island 4H Light Horse Club was started in 1969 in Lamont.

Since that time the club has moved its meeting room to the Walker school in Bruderheim. Currently the club has 12 very active and committed members.

The club is involved in 3 projects: Horsemanship 1-3, Horsemanship 4-7, and Young Horse.

Elk Island 4-H tries to do as many horse activities that it can but it can be a challenge in the winter.

Winter months are time for fundraising and community work. This year we have done fundraisers, hosted a Valentine's party at the Auxilliary Wing of the Lamont Hospital and hosted the 5th annual Tack Sale in March. The members take ongoing riding lessons, meet for casual group rides, attend specialized clinics, and work towards their own personal goals.

But there is also time for fun: attending the CFR, skating parties, movie nights, and the big trip to Mane Event. Everyone looks forward to Regional Horse Camp in the summer.

Lamont 4-H Multi ClubThe Lamont 4-H Multi Club is the youngest club in the district as we are only six years old. We are a multi club because we don’t have a major animal like a cow or a horse for our project. Instead we have chosen to work on ‘smaller’ projects. Over the years our projects have included canine, baking, photography and crafts.

This past year we did Foods and Crafts. Each member puts their "Head, Heart, Health and Hands" into their projects and come out very proud of their accomplishments.

We had 14 regular members and 5 Cleaver Kids. (4H Alberta has welcomed Cleaver Kids to our 4-H family as an opportunity for underage youth.

Cleaver Kids activities will prepare and nurture future 4-H members through family participation.)

As well as our working on our projects, we participated in fundraisers and volunteering in the community.

4-H Canada is 100 years old this year! As part of the celebrations, the 4-H Council of Canada is encouraging all 4-H clubs and councils to make a donation to their local food bank. We will record all the donations made [in Alberta] with the hopes of beating the rest of Canada. Please help the Lamont 4-H District Council reach that goal by bringing a donation to the Extravaganza. Thank you for helping make sure Alberta 4-H'ers do their part to wish 4-H Canada a happy birthday. And, in 2017, we will be celebrating our own 100th anniversary in the
