Did you know that the total area of St. Albert is 4,973 hectares? This and many other points of statistical interest were contained within the city’s 2014 annual report. Council signed off on the report on Monday night. Statistics were available on a myriad of topics, from crime rates to financial information to the number of people who went to the Arden Theatre last year. Here’s a sampling of some of the statistics in the report:
By Kevin Ma Staff Writer The tents are going up on Mission Hill this week as St. Albert’s Catholic schools gear up for the big finish to their 150-year birthday bash. Some 6,000 students from the Greater St. Albert Catholic school district are set to march on Mission Hill Thursday morning for a celebratory mass – the penultimate event in the district’s yearlong celebration of its 150th anniversary. “It was an education system that started very quietly and was responsible for the needs of seven orphan children at the time,” said board superintendent David Keohane. “From those humble beginnings, we’ve seen a school system grow to a size of 6,000 students in three communities.” The mass itself will be similar to the one held in 2011 for the city’s sesquicentennial, Keohane said. Archbishop Richard Smith will lead the ceremony, which will include performances by local schools. “If it’s anything like the one we did to celebrate the 150 years of St. Albert, it will be a pretty moving experience.” Expect the main-stage to go up by the ball diamond at the bottom of the hill on Wednesday. Thursday morning will see some 45 school buses converge on the hill packed with students, with hundreds more making their way to the site on foot. The event will go rain or shine, and is open to the public. The mass is from 9:45 to 11 a.m. Guests are asked to bring their own blankets or chairs to sit on, and to walk to the hill, as parking is very limited. Once the mass is done, crews will take down the stage and replace it with a big tent for Saturday’s big finish: the 150th anniversary gala, a posh event featuring formal dress, cocktails and a gourmet dinner. Tickets were about 90 per cent sold as of Wednesday, but there might be a few left by Saturday. The gala will feature a pair of auctions run by host Danny Hooper, Keohane said. Items up for bid include a lease on a new Volvo, a painting by St. Albert artist Lewis Lavoie (one that Lavoie will actually paint during the gala), a trip to the Vatican, and tickets to the Sept. 5 football match between Notre Dame’s Fighting Irish and the University of Texas Longhorns. Tickets to Notre Dame football games normally cost between $500 and $5,000 and are highly sought after, Keohane said. Proceeds from the auction will go towards the Greater St. Albert Catholic Schools Education Foundation. Visit gsacrd.ab.ca for all the details. kma@stalbert.greatwest.ca

What began as a Queen’s University class project for Nick (Splash) and Taes (Boots) Adams has led to the release of eight award-winning CDs, including their 2014 and 2015 Junonominated albums, three full-length DVDs and oodles of music videos. Since taking the leap into their first big puddle in 2003 with their debut album, this singing-dancing sensation has received three Canadian Children’s Group of the Year honours at the Sirius XM Independent Music Awards as well as collaborated alongside kids’ recording greats like Sharon, Lois and Bram, and Fred Penner. With the support of an ever-expanding fan base, Splash’N Boots appears daily on Treehouse TV to the delight of about 8.3 million homes across the country. These self-made makers of meaningful music live for creating songs that can be shared with the entire family. Armed with his bright blue guitar and her signature yellow boots, the pair continue to crank-up the energy in live concert settings around the world. On-stage or on-screen, this authentic and hilarious duo welcome each day as a new opportunity to strike a chord in the hearts of someone new.
“Splash’N Boots show is fun, hip and edgy…not only were the children dancing the entire time; at one point every single adult in attendance was laughing so hard they were wiping their eyes.” – The Journal Argus Performance Sponsor

NOISY THEATRE with
MARY LAMBERT
Quiet, please! While this might be a phrase that some seasoned theatre-
goers have come to expect, it’s guaranteed never to be heard during a Mary Lambert performance. Known for her dynamic and engaging stage persona, collective liveliness is encouraged – and downright expected. Lambert’s entertaining mix of well-known original tunes will tickle the funny bone and get the entire family on their feet. Among many things – family singer, songwriter and entertainer, Lambert is a BIG KID. Her unique brand of Noisy Theatre is full of colourful props, infectious energy, bubbly music and, of course, buckets of interactive fun. Capturing the imaginations of countless children across Canada since 1993, Lambert’s music is cleverly written and carries with it messages of kindness, friendship and family. A Calmar, Alberta resident for the past four years, Lambert’s career began in Ontario when a friend overheard her singing to her small children at bedtime. In addition to two JunoAward nominations, she has performed over 3,000 shows across Canada and released 12 CDs and two live concert DVDs.
“WOW!! What an amazing, energetic, interactive performance Mary Lambert gives. All ages of children and adults were completely captivated… Mary is extraordinary performer that every family should see!”

SOLD OUT
Rock & Roll Preschool
The Wiggles. Two words synonymous with the mecca of children’s entertainment. Anthony (Blue), Emma (Yellow), Lachy (Purple) and Simon (Red) join their lovable friends Captain Feathersword, Dorothy the Dinosaur, Wags the Dog and Henry the Octopus for the first time on the Arden stage. Welcoming a new generation with their unparalleled brand of pint-sized parties, the Australian sensation returns to Canada as part of their Rock & Roll Preschool tour. Featuring original tunes from their CD and DVD like I Want a Leather Jacket and Wake Up!, wiggly little rockers will enjoy ‘a little less conversation, a little more action’ as they dance the day away. In a world of big red cars, randomly snoozing and extremely hungry wiggles, the iconic ‘fab four’ for under-fives will also perform classic favourites like Fruit Salad and Do the Propeller!. With nearly a quarter-century performing experience under their belts and countless awards and accolades, The Wiggles proudly span generations as they continue to perform over 250 shows around the world each year. Fans both young and young at heart can catch a new season of the groups’ hit TV series, Ready, Steady, Wiggle! on Treehouse TV.
“With this new tour, we’ve got everything from Irish dancing, ballerinas, and a couple of hip shaking Elvises!... We can’t wait for our friends in Canada to see this new show!” – Anthony Field (Creator, The Wiggles)

BOBS & LOLO
Jump up and down and dance around with this award-winning Canadian singing sensation. Stars of a new preschool Treehouse TV series, this bubbly duo write and sing about the things they love – nature, friendship and family. Growing up together in Nanaimo, BC, Robyn Hardy (Bobs) and Lorraine Pond (LoLo) had no idea their love for the natural world and teaching children would lead them into a fun and fulfilling career as entertainers. Since debuting in 2003 with performances at the Vancouver Aquarium educating children about the marine environment, Bobs & LoLo have released seven albums, including Dirty Feet in 2015. Armed with three Juno nods for Children’s Album of the Year, this dynamic duo have been capturing the hearts and minds of children and parents throughout North America with their original and fresh tunes. Winners of a Parents’ Choice Gold Award and a Western Canadian Music Award, this animated pair is known for their energetic and interactive live performances that inspire all youngsters to care about themselves, their neighbours and the world around them.
“Bobs & Lolo are the best family performers out there today. With full harmonies, great melodies and a positive message everyone can get behind, these girls are going to the top.” – Mario Vaira, Five Fathom Studios
