Thorpe Recovery Centre set to celebrate 40 years by Jaime Polmateer jaime@lloydminstersource.com

The Thorpe Recovery Centre will be celebrating its 40th anniversary this September with a few events as well as its annual general meeting (AGM). The events will take place on Sept. 15, 17 and 19 and will include meals, guest speakers and tours of the facility. Events kick off on Sept. 15 with the AGM where there will be an annual review of the recovery centre’s activities and a buffet dinner. Board members will also be elected and accept financial statements. The AGM will take place in the Thorpe Recovery Centre Gymnasium at 21,060 Tranquility Way, Blackfoot, Alta. “Then we have a pancake breakfast planned for the (Sept. 17) morning,” said Marie Gerhardt, board member and chairperson of the 40th anniversary committee. “This is a free event for everyone to come and attend. It will be from 6:30 to 10:30 a.m. at the Lloydminster Legacy Centre.” The celebration anniversary luncheon will be happening on Sept. 19 beginning at 11 a.m. and

will include lunch, a tour, historical information about the centre and keynote speakers Scott and Anne Oake. Scott Oake is most known for work he has done with Hockey Night in Canada and his coverage of winter and summer Olympic Games. Scott and Anne lost their 25-year-old son, Bruce, to an accidental drug overdose in 2011. “So the Thorpe Recovery Centre is something that is dear to their hearts as well as getting people into recovery,” said Gerhardt. “I believe what they’re going to be talking about is their journey through their son’s addiction and recovery and just talking about how important it is for family support and having that ‘after care.’” Tickets for the luncheon are $25 with a $15 receiptable portion that will go to the Thorpe Recovery Centre’s health and wellness initiative. They can be purchased at the centre, Cliff Rose for Clothes and Verses. The health and wellness initiative helps clients change their focus from addictive behaviours to healthier actions like coping strategies, nutrition and fitness, among others. The Thorpe Recovery Centre helps people with a wide range of addiction difficulties and tries to put

people on a healthier path to clean living. “The treatment there is basically medically supported detox and a residential addiction programming for chemical, drug, alcohol and process addictions such as sex and gambling for adults,” said Gerhardt. “They also provide a family program that teaches family members of addicts how to cope with addiction in their lives. So basically it’s starting right from the family, how to get healthy to working with the addict.” Since it began its work in 1975, the Thorpe Recovery Centre has helped over 12,000 people on their path to recovery and has affected over 20,000 Canadians through its services. People can also keep an ear out during early September as the Thorpe Centre is running on-air radio auctions, all the proceeds of which will be going to the health and wellness initiative as well. Items up for auction will be a watch from Richardson’s Jewellery, Edmonton Oilers tickets, a LloydMall gift card, a week-long holiday condo rental in Kimberly, B.C. and a painting by Shannon Cross, wife of former NHLer Cory Cross.

City renews library lease by Josef Jacobson josef@lloydminstersource.com

For the next five years, the Lloydminster Public Library will continue to call the Atrium Centre home. At its Aug. 24 meeting, Lloydminster city council voted to renew the library’s lease with the Servus Credit Union, which owns the Atrium Centre. The lease will last from Sept. 1, 2015 until Aug. 31, 2020 at a cost of $58,187.28 each year. The previous lease lasted three years at a rate of $4 per square foot. The new deal costs $4.50 per square foot and includes an additional 921 square feet which used to house the Lloydminster Regional Archives. The city is also renting a 120-square-foot storage area at $480 annually. During the meeting, Coun. Linnea Goodhand noted that there was no early termination provision in the contract, meaning the city would be unable to relocate the library if a more favourable location became available or if it was recommended that the library be moved as part of the ongoing Facilities Master Plan. “A five-year lease without an exit strategy means that

the library will occupy those premises in the Atrium for the full life of the lease,” Goodhand said. “We’re undergoing a review process right now to see what the new library could look like, where it would be, how big it would be and my concern was, was there any sense of optimism that we could have a new library underway before the five years are up?” She said the city would only be in a position to relocate the library “if money fell out of the sky,” and that presently remaining in the Atrium Centre is economically practical and realistic. Coun. Larry Sauer said moving from a three-year lease to a five-year lease made sense as there would be no incremen-

tal increase in cost over that time period. He says even if it was recommended that the library be relocated, that process would likely take about five years. “There is a Facilities Master Plan going, of which the library will be one of the facilities that we’re talking about,” Sauer said. “If there are recommendations that we look at some other facility, that’s going to take time and this’ll be in the interim. We feel it’s a fair agreement, certainly.” As with the previous agreement, the tenant is responsible for a 13.72 per cent share of the common area operating costs. The City of Lloydminster funds about 66 per cent of the library’s operating costs. This year that fee amounts to $858,172.

City introduces sponsorship strategy by Josef Jacobson josef@lloydminstersource.com

For the first time, the City of Lloydminster has a policy in place on paper to outline the proper protocol to follow when pursuing potential advertising and sponsorship opportunities. Council approved the strategy at its Aug. 24 meeting. “We’ve had some sponsorships of city events and city facilities in the past – the Servus Sports Centre would be a good example – and there are a lot more opportunities out there. And before we pursue these opportunities we just want to make sure we have a policy in place to ensure that we do things the right way and everything is fair and transparent and we proceed with some of these opportunities to gather further sponsorship of events and facilities in the city and generate some new revenue,” Coun. Chris McQuid said. “(The Lloydminster Centennial Civic Centre) would definitely stand out as one building that would benefit from sponsorship and being named after a potential sponsor.” The document applies to naming rights and

sponsorship for city programs, special events and property as well as preferred provider status for the city. The policy instructs that the city only solicit and approve sponsorship that is consistent with city objectives and avoids any perceptions of improper conduct. This includes any real or perceived conflicts of interest. The strategy also warns of “major risks” of sponsorship. These include embarrassing the city with an inappropriate sponsor, breaching city accounting requirements, not being cost-effective and not being able of surviving critical public scrutiny. Supervisors and managers are responsible for approving agreements which satisfy the strategic provisions and are worth up to $25,000. General managers approve those agreements worth up to $50,000, directors approve decisions worth up to $100,000 and the city manager and deputy chief administrative officer are responsible for signing off on agreements worth up to $200,000. City council has the duty of approving contacts that do not satisfy the provisions and for agreements involving billboards and naming rights for city property, buildings and structures.

Energy Centre officially opened by Alex Chippin alex@lloydminstersource.com

Lakeland College’s new Energy Centre comes with obvious benefits. It’s bigger and better. It’s new and improved. Its laundry list of special features includes a state-of-the-art once-through steam generator, four other boilers of different configurations, a two-storey distillation tower, water treatment equipment, a steam turbine generator, a black start generator, economizers and six breakout rooms. But as Mayor Rob Saunders watched and listened to speeches from dignitaries and Lakeland College officials at the centre’s grand opening on Wednesday, it was the benefits to his city that grew clearer. “The economic driver of Lakeland College is very significant to the growth of both the city and the region,” said Saunders. “If you look back over the past 30 years, the population of Lloydminster has doubled,” he said. “If you look at over the past 25 years, of which Lakeland College is celebrating their anniversary in 2015, Lakeland College has also grown and contributed to our population in the whole region.” Indeed, students are flocking to Lloydminster. Lakeland College’s student intake for this school year had already doubled thanks to the attraction of the new facility, which will primarily provide training for the Heavy Oil Operations Technicians and Heavy Oil Power Engineer programs. Saunders, himself, is a noted alumnus of the latter, class of 1983. Further, the new, $25-million facility will allow Lakeland College to improve training for thirdclass and second-class power engineers. “(Students) are getting the state-of-the-art, they’re also learning how to run a fully operating lab,” said Lakeland College president and CEO

Alice Wainwright-Stewart. “If we look into the horizon for oil and gas industry, I think it’ll have a big impact on our whole Lloydminster area and region going forward.” Professional opportunities in Lloydminster await students, too, giving them reason to stay in the Border City after graduation. “It’s by training people locally and providing opportunities that businesses and industry are requesting and needing,” said Saunders. His city, meanwhile, could also take advantage of the Energy Centre’s capabilities, which include providing power and heat to other buildings. “The City of Lloydminster has facilities in close

proximity so there will probably be exploratory discussion around some of the opportunities in that aspect,” he said. A bigger and better Energy Centre with the potential to lead to a bigger and better city. Perhaps that’s what the mayor was visualizing on Wednesday afternoon as he listened to a handful of speeches before finally standing up to give his own. “There’s a lot of important people here today,” he said, glancing around the room full of more than 100 people. It may take time, but the room is getting bigger — and better.

Healthy lunch integral to succeeding in school by Alex Chippin alex@lloydminstersource.com

Skipping school is one thing, but skipping lunch is another. “Lunch is definitely important to provide energy for the day and to fuel learning,” said Taressa Waye, a registered dietitian for Alberta Health Services. “If (students) don’t eat during the day, they’re probably not going to be able to focus.” On the brink of a new school year, it’s worth noting that many students, especially younger ones, tend to skip lunch when they don’t feel hungry or are less than enamoured with what they find in their lunch bag. However, lunch serves more than just energy, says Waye. “If you don’t eat regularly, your metabolism will slow down to adapt to a lower amount of calories,” she said. “And then it’s really hard to get your metabolism to go back up if you do end up skipping meals

and letting your metabolism slow down.” A slower metabolic rate prevents the digestive system from breaking down calories as quickly, which can make unhealthy weight gain more probable in the future and make losing weight effectively more difficult. Skipping meals can also lead to over-eating later on as the body attempts to compensate for a lack of nutrients throughout the day, which compounds the problem as the excess intake often gets stored as fat. While lunch is vital, so too is breakfast, says Waye, despite the propensity for some students to skip the morning meal as well. “You haven’t had any food overnight so you want to kick your metabolism into place for the day by having something to eat,” she said. “It is really important, not only to get your metabolism going in the morning, but also to provide

energy for the rest of your day. And then you’re not having a huge lunch to make up for what you missed at breakfast.” For meals, Waye recommends following the ever-reliable Canada’s Food Guide to maintain a well-balanced diet. “Have the four food groups included in your lunch – your vegetables and fruit, your grain products, your milk and alternatives and your meat and alternatives.” Between them, the four groups provide adequate vitamins and fibres, carbohydrates and proteins. Healthy snacks throughout the day can also be useful, says Waye, who suggests including at least two food groups in each snack. Lastly, Waye encourages parents to involve their kids in making meals for school, as they’ll be more likely to eat something they’ve helped prepare.

Between its Lloydminster and Vermilion campuses, Lakeland College expects to serve more than 7,000 full-time and part-time students during the 2015 academic year. by Alex Chippin alex@lloydminstersource.com

In the 2015-16 school year, Lakeland College expects to serve over 7,000 full-time and part-time students between its Lloydminster and Vermilion campuses, in addition to 29 students in Edmonton. The college anticipates over 600 first-year and returning students at its Lloydminster, and over 1,000 first-year and returning students at its Vermilion campus. The school will also take in more students during the academic year in program areas such as apprenticeship technical training, emergency services, university transfer, business and human services. Here is how enrolment breaks down and the factors that affect it: Where they are coming from In addition to welcoming students from across Canada, Lakeland College has enrolled 33 international students from 13 countries for the academic year. Exchange students are coming from Australia, Barbados, Belize, Cameroon, China, India, Ireland, Jamaica, Nigeria, Philippines, Serbia, Montenegro and the United States. Twenty-six of the 33 CLASSES START SEP 14, 2015 will attend the LloydPROGRAMS THAT WE OFFER minster campus, with Pre-School Program (Ages 3 - 5) the other seven heading Recreational Program (Ages 5 - Adult) to Vermilion.

Lakeland sees significant increase in enrolment in six courses

“It speaks to the nature of our programming, in that if you take business administration, it’s offered everywhere and is pretty similar between province to province and post-secondary institutions,” said Jo-Ann Mones, associate registrar for Lakeland College. “However, if you look at our environmental programming or our heavy oil programming or our fire programming, there’s uniqueness to it. We’re attracting students internationally as well as across Canada into our programs.” Popular programs Agricultural programs continue to draw interest from prospective students, so much so that each of the agricultural programs at the Vermilion campus were wait-listed this year and an additional 40 spots were created for programs.

Ingram wants to engage young voters by Jaime Polmateer jaime@lloydminstersource.com

Liberal candidate for Battlefords-Lloydminster, Larry Ingram, has a strong desire to engage young voters. He says the previous Conservative government has put the country in serious debt and it’s going to be the younger population that will have to pick up the tab for the majority of it. To the best of Ingram’s understanding the debt is somewhere around the $600 billion mark. And if younger people are going to have to pay for it through their taxes over the years, he thinks they should inform themselves and take an interest in the politics that impact their finances. “Talking to the people that are in that age group and saying this is what’s happening, this is a debt that’s been developed and you are going to have to pay it. So (they) should start getting involved, that’s what we need to be pushing for,” Ingram said. “To get the people, not my age and not the seniors that are older than me to keep on running the show, but we need to get some people that are younger.” Which brings Ingram to the point that younger people should not only be inspired to vote but also enter politics and help shape the future of their country. Many ads from the Conservative Party have criticized Liberal leader Justin Trudeau’s age, implying that he is too young to lead, but Ingram disagrees with this accusation wholeheartedly. “When they say that Trudeau Battlefords-Lloydminster Liberal is not old enough, well he’s in candidate Larry Ingram his mid-40s,” he said. “When you look around the office and on job sites, well that’s the foreman’s age. The general foreman ... they’re running the show. So I just don’t think for a second that that’s got any validity to it at all, that he’s too young. I think he’s the right age to be a prime minister.” Ingram chose the Liberal party because he considers himself a “middle of the road kind of guy” and supports their policies to strengthen the economy and give more help to the middle class. He says he decided to run because he feels he has a commitment to his country and this his way of trying to fulfill that commitment. As for what makes him a good candidate for the constituents of BattlefordsLloydminster, Ingram says he gets things done and has good intuition on how to get them done properly. As an example of this he points to his work as the rural representative and vice-chair of the North Central Transportation Planning Committee. While working in this capacity he helped create a transportation plan for the northern part of the province by bringing together elected representatives and leaders and he also had a big hand in having Highway 3 rebuilt from Glaslyn to Turtleford. “It’s that kind of common sense that I have that makes me feel I’m someone that can help direct where the country is going,” he said. “I hope that people look at my track record and figure that I would be a good candidate to represent them here in the Battlefords-Lloydminster constituency.” Ingram’s background includes a stint as a municipal councillor for the RM of Mervin from 1998 to 2004. He has also been an executive board member for the Sheet Metal Workers’ International Association Local 8 for the last nine years and for the last three years he has also been the recording secretary for that group.

A lot has happened in 10 years

Opinion by Colin Budd colin@lloydminstersource.com

The Lloydminster that was here 10 years ago when The Lloydminster Source first hit the streets on Sept. 1, 2005, is in many ways unrecognizable from the one we know today. The municipal census showed there were only 23,643 people. The number of businesses in town that were either non-existent or changed would be hard to describe to someone just moving here. The residential development is beyond mind blowing – where my house sits today was just bare land in 2005 and it’s not mistaken for a new neighbourhood in 2015. Things change everywhere, of course, but this city seemed to more than most. Yet, when I was going through the CDs – remember those? – to grab some material for today’s Evolution supplement, I couldn’t help but realize that a lot of things stay the same. Sure, the names of many companies in the ads aren’t always recognizable anymore, but the spirit of the city hasn’t seemed to shift. Almost without exception every issue had some sort of a story of kindness featured. Whether it was a cheque donation, an upcoming walk or a pie-in-the-face fundraiser, Lloydminster residents were always on board

to help out. That sort of genuine goodness is one of the things that hasn’t been altered and what truly makes this city a wonderful place to live. I bounced around in my share of communities leading up to my stint here, but none have so visibly gone above and beyond to help those in need. I have learned in my time here that it is easy to go along with the negatives. For some reason, in every place I have lived a significant section of the community will look for those as reasons to base their case. They’re not wrong, of course, but there is so much out there that is positive, it just takes some searching. I’m not sure everyone will come around to that, but for me, it’s been impossible to ignore in my time here and going back through those pages only reinforced it. As a newspaper, we have been fortunate to be a part of this community for the last 10 years and been able to tell those stories. Things aren’t perfect – and they never will be – but there have been so many feel-good stories that I have either had the pleasure of writing about over that time or being told about by one of the reporters here (there was also the time I had the personal embarrassment of playing hockey in front of roughly 1,000 people in a charity game). It’s something that can’t help shake up your perspective when you really want to jump on the complaining bandwagon. Thanks to the readers for picking up the paper twice a week or checking us out online and to the people for letting us tell their stories. It’s been a remarkable partnership with the residents here and throughout the region and I certainly hope to see it grow in the future – there are still too many good stories out there.

Basic income program overdue

To the editor, The Saskatchewan Green Party endorses the Advisory Group on Poverty Reduction’s call for a basic income program to help cut poverty rates in half in our province by 2020. Our party’s 2016 election platform calls for a Basic Income program for all Saskatchewan residents. Party Leader Victor Lau says the advisory group is suggesting real change for all Saskatchewan people. Saskatchewan is long overdue for a basic income program, which

Publisher: Reid Keebaugh General Manager: Kent Keebaugh Managing Editor: Colin Budd Sales Manager: Deanna Reschny Production Manager: Karrie Craig

would not only raise the standard of living of everyone in the province, but also reduce some costs to government services. Now we would like to see a basic income model put forward soon. In order for a basic income program to work, it will be important to ensure that nobody in the province is left out of it. Real change for Saskatchewan people means real but practical programs that solve problems for the long run. – Victor Lau, Leader Saskatchewan Green Party

The student-managed farm concept has been instrumental in attracting applicants, as has the ability to obtain a double diploma, of which 21 students are currently pursuing. “It’s a trend that is becoming more popular, each year it has been increasing,” said Mones. “We have a lot of students that are doing a double diploma now in ag programs, so they will complete a two-year diploma in animal science technology or crop technology and then they will return again for one additional year to complete our agribusiness diploma.” The Energy Centre effect The new Energy Centre at Lakeland College has helped peak interest in the school’s heavy oil operations technician (HOOT) and heavy oil power engineering (HOPE) programs. Enrolment in HOPE has doubled from 40 to 80 since 2013, the inaugural year of the program, and this year it will serve as an alternative to HOOT, which was

suspended for 2015 but is expected to return in 2016. Once it’s reinstalled, 36 new students will be accepted into HOOT. “Our full-time students in both of our HOOT and our HOPE programs use those labs. But the labs are also used for steam time for people who have done their third-class or their fourth-class engineering,” said Mones. “They’re coming in on a part-time basis and they’re actually buying steam time at the lab. The lab time is going to be in demand for the Energy Centre.”

Economy Some people may struggle to afford postsecondary schooling during an economic decline, but many choose to invest in education while the job market sits at a stalemate. Once the economy picks back up, those people could find themselves in a more favourable situation. “Typically when it’s a tough economy, people are perhaps losing their jobs or looking at doing something else and then they turn to further their education,” said Mones. “That generally is a trend. If times are tough and people are out of work they look at education.”

“I love us.”

Capturing the prairies on canvas by Josef Jacobson josef@lloydminstersource.com

Sandra Knoss explores the vast prairie landscape searching for artistic inspiration. The Rockglen, Sask.-based painter will drive and hike and climb the highest hills, looking out as far as she can see, until a particular vista catches her eye. From there those tranquil scenes of nature are captured on canvas in the artist’s minimalistic, vivid style. “I’ve tried abstract, I’ve tried more realism and I just have really moved to these more stylized landscapes,” Knoss said. “I think Saskatchewan is very colourful. People don’t always think that, but I find it very colourful.” A selection of Knoss’ work will be on display at the Lloydminster Cultural and Science Centre from Sept. 1 to 23 as part of a multimedia travelling exhibit assembled by the Organization of Saskatchewan Arts Councils (OSAC), called Greetings from the Land of the Living Skies! The exhibit features paintings Knoss made after touring southern Saskatchewan’s Grasslands National Park with a nearby ranching family. “They would take me to their favourite locations and then I took a bunch of pictures and I did the paintings from the places they took me,” she said. “It was a really interesting time, too. They’d tell me stories and we just did a lot of exploring at the park.” Knoss has been painting since she was a child and has always been drawn to depicting the natural work. In the last few years she’s been taking workshops and university classes to develop her abilities and discover new art forms. “I didn’t take a painting class, it’s extended media and the only thing you couldn’t do was traditionally paint,” Knoss said. “It was really challenging and I did really well and I enjoyed it. I think I learned something. As a person you want to challenge yourself and it keeps me really interested if I keep changing and trying

new things.” She says artists are starting to incorporate more media into their shows. Paintings may be accompanied by video or digital art to make the audience a part of the experience. Knoss says the OSAC exhibit, which also features photography, sculpture and ceramics, is a sign of things to come.

“An exhibit now will be more taking in all the senses and will be not as traditional. It’s nice to get people used to that,” Knoss said. “That’s what they’re going to see when they go to an art gallery now. There might be interactive things and it’s a little different than just traditionally going around and looking at just paintings.”

The days are getting shorter VIC’S VIEWS by Vic Hult

By the time you read this it will be September. I don’t know where August went. The days went by just like white pickets in a fence at 70 miles per hour as they used to say. Summer is done and winter is coming. I know winter is coming because it is trying to be dark at 9 p.m. I hate that, fumbling around in the dark, no lights you have seem to be bright enough. I just know winter is coming. There is a chill in the air at night. That is a reminder from the big guy that winter is coming. Some people got damaging frost on their crops. I know winter is coming, the crows are flocking up. They are cawing, squawking and making a big fuss. They are running around looking for trouble. If they find an owl they torment it all day but they are not that smart because at night the owl can see, but the crows not as well. The owl takes revenge in the night and a few crows meet their end. Do the crows learn anything? Nope. The next day there they are, the crows are back at it again tormenting the owl. They have developed a real hate-hate relationship. I know winter is coming, there are some trees and crops that are turning yellow. I am not looking forward to winter but I know it’s coming. I like it when things are green. I find it depressing to see all the leaves turn yellow and fall off. The countryside gets very bleak looking. I don’t like it. On the farming front, barley or oats seeded

early are getting swathed or are very close to it. Some people are starting straight cutting their wheat that has been desiccated. The pea crops are being harvested. Any barley seeded early is now swathed. With the weather we have had with the rain and a touch of frost all the crops are going to be ready at once. People are now starting to swath their canola crops One year when I only had two swathers and we farmed much less acres than we did at one time, the canola suddenly was all ready at once and when you touched it with the swather it would shell. We changed to swathing the wheat in the daytime and would swath the canola at night. We swathed the entire canola crop and I never saw the canola in the daylight. We got the job done but it was very tiring One thing that is about to happen, is there is a tropical storm coming through the Caribbean called Erika. It has caused damage and flooding and will strike the Florida coast in two or three days. At times, get the tail end of these storms and they can really put a stop to harvest. If it follows the coast it will soak the Maritimes and leave us alone. If it comes inland, we will get wet. Rubber boot and coffee time. On the home front, the crew decided that the work in the elevator was too high and scary so we agreed to have them go home. The project can wait for another day. In political news, the Mike Duffy trial has taken a break but the reporters are still trying to get members of Stephen Harper’s staff to admit that Harper knew about the $90,000 cheque from Nigel Wright to repay Duffy’s housing allowance. I am not sure where the crime is here but one question needs to be asked: who is paying for Mike Duffy’s lawyer? Duffy has a history of not paying for anything and the lawyer has been on the case for a month or more. Somebody is paying. Who is it?

HARVEST IS ALMOST HERE! Avoid breakdowns in the field.

October election looks like it will be close when you look at regional polls

Looking at the polls on the Internet, for the upcoming election, I looks like a tight three-way race but if I look at a graph based on regions, things aren’t looking so good for the Conservatives. In the Maritimes, the Liberals appear to be ahead, In Quebec the NDP are ahead, then the Liberals and third is the Conservatives. In Ontario, the Liberals have a slight lead. In the Prairies, the Conservatives have the lead. In British Columbia, the Liberals have the lead. This is just a survey and individual ridings will be different but the overall trend is not favourable to the Conservatives. John Diefenbaker had a saying, “polls are just for dogs.” We will see on Oct. 19. Question needing answers for the election: Why is the gasoline at the pumps so high when crude oil is $40 per barrel or less Joke of the Week: A lawyer dies and goes up to the Pearly Gates. The lawyer is upset and says he is too young, he is only 52. “No,” said St. Peter. “You are 87.” “How did you get that?” asked the lawyer. “We added up your time sheets,” said St. Peter.

The Lloydminster Bobcats dropped a 6-1 decision on Friday night in their first home preseason game. Lloydminster still has five games remaining before the season opens on Sept. 11.

Coaching staff not pleased with preseason effort by Andrew Brethauer andrew@lloydminstersource.com

Through the first two preseason games of seven for the Lloydminster Bobcats, the effort simply wasn’t there. Despite a 3-2 come-from-behind victory last Thursday over the Bonnyville Pontiacs, the Bobcats came home on Friday night and allowed six goals in the return match, as the Pontiacs converted on turnovers and missed clearing opportunities to earn a 6-1 victory. Even though it was only preseason, with the competitive nature of camp and players still fighting for spots on the roster, the coaching staff was not pleased with what team showed up to play and the effort they put in. “We didn’t have any effort at all,” said Bobcats coach Garry VanHereweghe. “That became real obvious even in the first period when it was

a 1-1 hockey game. We should have been able to figure out right there that we were losing a lot of battles and didn’t have the compete level and didn’t play with the energy we had to. “You can say it is exhibition, but there is no excuse for coming out and having the type of performance we did.” With 35 guys still in the running to make the roster, VanHereweghe said it should be obvious to the players

that 15 of them or so will be sent home or traded before the opening game of the regular season on Sept. 11 in Bonnyville. The score isn’t the prime focus of the coaches over the preseason, but a 6-1 loss to a good hockey team from Bonnyville that has a recent history with the Bobcats did give them a good look at what they have on the ice. Lloydminster is full of talented hockey players, capable of winning any game on any given night, but for

VanHereweghe, it could come down to the character of the players. And so far, he isn’t sure the Bobcats have the character and workmanship needed to be a dominant team in the Alberta Junior Hockey League (AJHL). “When you get beat 6-1 by a good hockey team and you have emptied your tank and gave everything you can and had that desire to win, you wouldn’t be as concerned because that happens in sports,” said VanHereweghe. “But when you see the type of effort we are getting and the nonchalant attitude when you are losing 6-1 in exhibition, it’s got to tell you we have got to have a real close look at what we are putting together here as character. We are not going to panic, it’s early, it is preseason, but on the other hand, we need to identify what kind of a product and what you are going to get each and every time you go on that ice.” See “Bobcats,” Page 18

With only one true freshman on the roster, King said he is way of ahead in terms of teaching compared to where they have been in the past, as the heavy experienced roster hasn’t had to spend time on the basics. “It is a lot easier to get in shape than it is to grow talent,” said King. “Talent is here, no question.

Border Battle brings back local Blades by Andrew Brethauer andrew@lloydminstersource.com

While the Border Battle between the Western Hockey League’s (WHL) Edmonton Oil Kings and Saskatoon Blades will be memorable for all former Lloydminster hockey natives, for one in particular, that game will have some extra meaning. Chase Wouters was only drafted by the Blades this past spring, selected in the first round, 19th overall. So if he does put on the Blades jersey in Lloydminster, it will be the first time he has worn that jersey and played in a WHL game in his career. “It is sinking in a lot more now,” said Wouters. “It would be an unbelievable opportunity for me to do that.” Last year with the Lloydminster Heat (bantam AAA), Wouters led the team with 19 goals and 57 assists. Of the five players who have played in Lloydminster who will be competing in the Border Battle, he will be the only one guarenteed to be returning to Lloydminster for another season, as he will play his midget season with either the minor midget Rage or midget Bobcats.

It has been 10 years in Lloydminster for Wouters, who was excited to be drafted by the Blades so he could play close to home. “I’ve been playing in the (Civic Centre) since I was four years old,” said Wouters. “I know the rink pretty good. The boards are pretty bouncy, so that is an advantage.” Joining him is Chasetan Braid, who played his first season with the Blades last year, scoring one goal and four points in 57 games. The Chauvin, Alta. native played with the bantam Heat in 2011-12, and then two seasons of midget with both the Rage and Bobcats. The ice surface may be a little smaller than he is used to at the SaskTel Centre in Saskatoon, but Braid said he always had success in Lloydminster for the three years he played in the Border City and is excited to get back to play one more time. “We will have a lot more friends and family come to this game, more support for sure,” said Braid. “It’s exciting to see that many guys growing up in one city come together to play maybe one of our last games here in Lloydminster.” The Border Battle is set for Sept. 6 at 6 p.m.

It was another successful season for the Bronson Forest Watersports Club, as its members picked up numerous medals over the season. Kaitlyn Salzl-Borzel started the season off with a gold at Westerns in Winnipeg before a trip to nationals in Sherbrooke, Que. in mid-August where she finished fourth in the women’s division. She finished her season with a gold in slalom and silver in trick at provincials in

Saskatoon on Aug. 23. Hunter Hollerbaum and Michaela Gadsby also competed at westerns, with Hollerbaum earning a silver in the U21 women’s competition, while Gadsby earned a gold in the Girls 3 division. At provincials they both picked up a gold medal, with Gadsby earning a gold in slalom and a silver in trick, while Hollerbaum earned gold in both categories. Other medalists include Kennedy Topott who earned silver in slalom behind Hollerbaum, and gold in the

trick category, while Janel Gadsby earned a silver in U21 women’s trick and slalom. Troy Salzl-Borzel picked up two gold medals in the U21 men’s competition, while Boyd Hollerbaum earned gold in both trick and slalom in the Mens 4 division. Mike Gadsby rounded out the medal winners with a silver in Men’s 4 slalom, while Kevin Imhoff earned a sixth place finish in the Men’s 3 division. The club operates out of Little Fishing Lake, Sask.

The Bobcats head to Drumheller for the first of two games against the Dragons, with the home game going Wednesday night at 7:30 p.m. at the Civic Centre. Lloydminster will then play the Battlefords North Stars from the Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League on Friday and Saturday before they finish their preseason in Whitecourt on Sunday. If there was a good time for the Bobcats to come out flat, it would be now when no points are on the line. And while VanHereweghe and the rest of the coaches won’t turn a blind eye to what they have seen so far from those who have suited up for their first two preseason games, they also aren’t panicking and making reactionary decisions on player’s roster fate. “We need to identify that this sort of thing can’t happen and won’t happen,” said VanHereweghe. “We need to take ownership of that as coaches and figuring it out and keep moving forward. You can’t base all of your decisions solely on one game.”

CAREERS LLOYDMINSTER SOURCE

AND CLASSIFIEDS

School and work Dear Working Wise, My 15-year-old son enjoyed his summer job and wants to continue working part-time while he’s in school so he can save for a car, but I’m worried that working is going to affect his grades. Should I be concerned? Signed, Worried Mom Dear Worried, Unfortunately, there is no definitive answer that everyone agrees on, but there are a number of studies that try to determine if working affects academic success. The Consequences of Employment During High School (2005) study found that the more hours students work, the lower their grades, school involvement, college attendance and career aspirations. Employment During High School: Consequences for Students’ Grades in Reading and Mathematics (1997) found that students who work have higher grades than those who don’t. Students who work more than 15 hours per week tend to have lower test scores than those who work less than 15 hours per

week. The Dropout, School Performance, and Working while in School (2007) study also found that academic performance was not necessarily hindered by working less than 15 hours per week. You might also want to consider that working can provide your son with more than just pocket money. He can learn time-management skills, money-management skills, employability skills, teamwork and interpersonal skills. Employment also provides valuable work experience and may make the transition from school to full-time work a little smoother. In fact, the 2014 UBC Sauder School of Business study, Beneficial “Child Labour,” found that students who worked part time found better jobs and higher salaries later in life. Know what your teen is capable of handling when it comes to managing school and work and negotiate what you think is an appropriate number of weekly work hours. Ensure that your son’s employer agrees to the hours limit that your family has set and under-

stands that school comes first. Monitor his grades and take action if they start to slip. Your son can help his employer by giving lots of notice about times when he might not be able to work as much, like during final exams, and times when he can work more hours, like during Christmas break. One last thought: This may be a good time for your son to look for a job that will provide him with practical experience in a career that he’s interested in. Working in a field that he is interested in will provide him with valuable related experience and contacts that might help him get his first job out of school. The experience will also give him a chance to “test drive” a career before he invests time and money in a post-secondary education. Good luck. Do you have a work-related question? Send your questions to Working Wise, at charles.strachey@gov. ab.ca. Charles Strachey is a manager with Alberta Human Services. This column is provided for general information.
