A Strathmore team of healthcare providers from the Calgary Rural Primary

Care Network was recognized for their
contributions to primary health care earlier this year at the 50th annual Mackid
Symposium.
Primary care is the care that patients
receive for everyday healthcare needs,
including care for chronic diseases,
health advice and counselling from a
family doctor or health care team.
The team works with Strathmore physicians including Dr. Alison Clark, family physician at Valley Medical Clinic and
Calgary Rural PCN Medical Director, and
is comprised of two registered dietitians,
four registered nurses, one medical office assistant and one licensed practitioner nurse.
The Strathmore team awarded for their
efforts has been operating for approximately six years and includes Michelle
Rigg, Anne Jensen, Shee Lillejord, Leni
Tishauser, Nicholas Creelman, Taralyn
Nelson, Dawn Shave and Colleen Romaniuk.
Clark said that before the team was
formed, Strathmore physicians really felt
that chronic disease management was an
important item to address and patients
really werent receiving enough services outside of the doctors office to ensure
that they were managing their chronic
health needs on a continual basis.
Now, under the team program, physicians are able to refer patients to team
members in between office visits which
quite often only occur every two or three
months.
Clark said these patients require more
in-between care and the team provides
another person whos paying attention
to what their needs are.
Clark works closely with registered
nurse Anne Jensen and the two come
together for weekly meetings to discuss
patients needs.
The team is designed to be an extension of the care patients receive from
their family doctors, and family doctors
will refer particular team members to patients based on the care patients require.

Pharmacist
Capsule Comments
For seniors, fear of falling is a very real one. The
causes of falls are many and include layout of the
home, physical handicaps and of course it could
be medications that are the cause. Many drugs
can affect brain function and blood pressure that
could lead to dizziness and falls. If you feel your
medications might increase your risk of a fall, talk to
our pharmacists.
Pharmacists and patients often use simple terms
in describing certain medications. The term blood
thinners is used often as a shorthand way of talking
about anticoagulant drugs. These drugs dont
actually thin the blood but they do help keep harmful
clots from developing in the arteries and veins. They
could prevent and heart attack or stroke.
Is that mammogram reminder still sticking to your
fridge because you are getting around to making an
appointment soon? Women who are aged 50-69
should have a mammogram every two years. If you
are over 70, talk to your doctor how often you should
have one. Mammograms may detect breast cancer
in the early stages making treatment outcomes more
successful.
We have all read how singing is good for you but
singing together seems to generate a higher degree of
well-being than singing alone. Its the camaraderie
and the joy of making music together that just makes
you feel good. Join a choir. Its good for your health.
You will enjoy our pharmacy. We may not sing for
you but will provide the best in hassle-free service.

Three year olds Trinity Douglas (l) and Pyper

Montgomery enjoyed trying on costumes at the
Halloween costume exchange.
Eight year old Mikayla Brown came to the library

on Sept. 30 to find a Halloween costume available for exchange. The exchange was a huge
success, aided in part by the Strathmore skating
club, which donated 15 bags of costumes.

Halloween costume exchange

boosted by big donation
MELISSA STRLE
Times Reporter

The Strathmore Skating Club generously donated 15 bags of costumes
and accessories for the annual library
Halloween Costume Exchange and this
helped draw a very large crowd to the
library for the exchange on Sept. 30.
Carmen Erison, assistant director of
library services, said the costume exchange was wild and we could not
have even predicted the amount of people that would come to this exchange.
It was absolutely fantastic.
I think that by getting that large donation, it did change the exchange. It
literally filled our entire meeting room.
Attendees were able to exchange
costumes or purchase costumes and
accessories with canned donations or
a suggested $2 per item. However, the

library accepted any and all donations
that people wanted to give.
The library collected roughly $200
in donations and saw people exchange
about 150 tickets for previously donated costumes.
Our goal first and foremost when we
created this event was to help people
less fortunate, said Erison. I find with
this economy right now, people are trying to save those pennies as much as
possible.
The library will be donating a full bag
of clothing to the Strathmore Parent
Link program for playtime. The library
also bagged up a lot of clothing that
will be used towards the United Church
thrift sale this month, and kept a good
selection of costumes for the event next
year.

The Strathmore team sets the stage
to enable physicians to be able to refer
patients for ongoing counselling concerning diets, exercise, managing blood
sugars for diabetes and a host of other
chronic diseases.
As time has gone on, weve learned
the best way to manage things so as we
learn more, were able to provide more
intensive services and understand what
people need, said Clark.
The interdisciplinary team works together to give the best medical care
and screen prevention to patients, and
brings a variety of different skill sets to
the table for different patients.
Dawn Shave, registered nurse for the
Calgary rural Primary Care Network
(PCN) at the Strathmore Central Clinic
said the team has been really great and
everybody works together and keeps
the patients in mind, which is really
nice because everyone has the same
goal in the end.
The team has regular meetings and
communicates over the phone and via
e-mail. They also meet with doctors on
a daily basis, to ensure our patients are
getting comprehensive and continuous

care, said Shave. It is very nice to be
nominated for the work you are doing.
The Mackid Symposium started in
1966 in honour of Dr. L. Mackid, who
had a longstanding career as a family
physician in Calgary and the surrounding rural area. The symposium has
grown into an annual continuing medical education event for family physicians and members of multidisciplinary
teams.
This year, the symposium hosted an
event featuring Dr. Mike Evans, creator of the YouTube sensation 23 1/2
hours, which has been viewed by over
four million people. This YouTube video
contains information about the health
benefits of exercise.
The symposium also offered a full day
program on a variety of topics of interest to family physicians and primary
care multidisciplinary teams.
Featured topics included chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, Type 2
diabetes, chronic pain, congestive heart
failure, geriatric assessment and goal
setting, fitness to drive, stress management, physician-assisted death and refugee health.

Drew Gregory wins male artist of the year

MELISSA STRLE
Times Reporter

Local country singer Drew Gregory
won male artist of the year at the first
annual YYC Music Awards (Calgarys
Music Awards) at the National Music
Centre in Calgary on Sept. 25.
The awards were designed to give
recognition to the achievements of Calgarys music community, and a variety
of music genres were recognized.
An industry panel selected all the artists and winners.
Gregory, who lives in Strathmore
with his wife Erinn and nine-monthold son Ty, said he didnt really know
what to expect at the awards but, It
was awesome.
He also said it was a little bit shocking to receive the male artist of the
year award.
Gregory enjoyed seeing all the different music genres at the awards including the different pop, rap and rock
bands.
Im sure theyre all the best at what
they do in their genre. But being in the
country genre, I wasnt as familiar with
some of them so I really didnt know
what to expect, he said. It was really
cool to see some local talent in Calgary
that I dont usually get a chance to get
out and see.
Jason Hastie and The Alibi, TwoShine
County and Lindsay Butler were all up
for awards, and Gregory said that they
all come from a pretty tight knit country music community in Alberta and
southern Alberta.
Gregorys manager Angie Morris
from Sirroma Entertainment was at the
award show to support the country
singer and commended the singer for
his talent.
Its amazing, its incredible, its awesome. Its quite an honour, especially
being the first inaugural awards that
says a lot about him, she said.
She added that Gregory is very ca-
pable and deserving of the award and

noted that hes having a very good
year.
Gregory also won the Association of
Country Music in Alberta (ACMA) Male
Artist of the Year award last January in
Red Deer.
Gregorys I Was There album was released last March. The title track I Was
There was the first single released and
has appeared on the Canadian country
music charts.
Different radio stations have started
picking up Gregorys latest single All
About It, and he said the track has
been very well received and is also hitting the charts.
Gregory started playing guitar when
he was in Grade 10 and performed at
parties where everybody encouraged
him to start singing.
I started guitar a little later than
most do when theyre serious about
music but I think I just always had that
love and passion for it, he said.
He didnt start taking it really seriously as a career until about six or seven
years ago.
Seven years ago I took my first trip
down to Nashville and when I came
back from that, I thought thats what I
really want to do as a career.
Hes been going strong ever since.
According to Gregory, his grandfather was the one family member who
was involved in playing music; however, music was always in the house
when he was growing up, and he always turned up the radio while driving
and listened to his dads records.
The singer said the only thing he
wanted to do when he got home from
school was crank up the amps and
play guitar. Were just such lovers of
music. I think thats what gave me the
passion to want to pursue it as a career, he said.
Performing is Gregorys favourite
part of the industry.
Thats where I feel most at home

and thats what I want to be doing, he

said. I love performing I want to be
on the stage as much as I possibly can.
The singer grew up in Standard, Alta.
and still farms there on the family farm.
He cites being inspired to sing from
just living in the country, with lots of
time to sit out on the tractor and the
grain truck and think about and write
songs.
Ive always tried to pull from real life
events, he said. I think each one of
my albums has been in the moment of
where Im at in my life.
In August, the singer performed at
the first Country Thunder concert in
Calgary, which also drew big name acts
like Tim McGraw. He also performed at
Nashville North at the Stampede.
Going forward, the singer has a lot
going on, He will be performing at Bar
None at the University of Alberta in November with Aaron Pritchett. Then in
October, Gregory will perform at Wild
Bills in Banff. This will be followed by
a performance at the Ranchmans in
Calgary at the end of October for Halloween.

MELISSA STRLE
Times Reporter

Nominations are open for the 2016
Child
Development
Professional
Awards of Excellence. Child development professionals spend thousands of
hours contributing to making a difference in the lives of Albertas children
every day.
To be considered eligible for nomination, individuals must work with children in licensed or approved child-care
programs, early-childhood development programs or Parent Link Centres.
They may also work in early childhood
services programs that are approved
through Alberta Education or Alberta
Human Services.
Out-of-school care, before-and-after
care, daycares, preschools and family
dayhome agencies will all be eligible
for consideration. In addition, staff who
have some sort of early learning and
childcare training and who are working with school-aged children are also
eligible to apply.
Lorna Anton, program consultant
at the early childhood development
branch at Alberta Human Services,
said parents or the program itself can
nominate someone or themselves for
an award.
They need to be able to show excellence in things like community partnerships or diversity, said Anton.
Nine awards will be presented to child
development professionals for demonstrating excellence in the categories of
innovative programming, inclusionary
practices, collaborative partnerships,
leadership, promising practices, family/
parent support, community building
and continuous improvement.
Three awards will be presented in
each category including individuals,
teams and programs, and all categories
must provide a short letter about why
they should be nominated and must
meet certain selection criteria.

the municipality of Jasper, won as part

of a program at the awards last November for Jaspers out-of-school program.
The program won for innovation and
leadership and its use of the outdoors.
The program prides itself on using the
natural environment as a teacher, and
spending a lot of time outside. It also
uses Jasper National Park as part of
programming.
I think its definitely great to be recognized by the province. It has definitely brought some recognition to our
town and to our programming, said
Daniel. We felt pretty good as a staff
being recognized because we definitely
felt we do a good job.
Albertas Minister of Human Services
Irfan Sabir recently stated: Every family deserves access to quality services
and programs that contribute to a
brighter future for their children. The
professionals who provide these valued
services deserve our appreciation and
recognition.
Once the nominations are in, a selection committee will choose recipients
for each category. The selection committee will be comprised of past recipients and other individuals from the
early learning and childcare field. This
may include colleges and licensing officers from the region.
The awards help form an integral
part in promoting the well-being of
young children.
These folks who are nominated and
win these awards are the people who
are looking after our children every day
and get very little thanks, and so its a
really big deal when theyre nominated
and when they win, said Anton.
The Minister of Human Services will
present the nine awards at an awards
ceremony and luncheon on Nov. 21 at

Professional Awards of Excellence at
the Government House in Edmonton.

reliable information about common minor illnesses and injuries in children.

The website contains information about common colds, croup, coughs, ear pain, nose bleeds,
head injuries, vomiting and diarrhea, fever, febrile
seizures and rashes. The site also contains detailed
descriptions, symptoms, treatments and advice on
when to seek medical attention.
Dr. Naminder Sandhu, pediatric emergency physician at Alberta Childrens Hospital, was part of
the initial organizing committee that developed
the website. The concept for the website was developed approximately five years ago.
The main purpose is to target those families
who are concerned about their children having illnesses that we would deem to be common childhood illnesses, and provide them with medical advice on what they can do to manage their children
at home, how to decide if theyre sick or whether
or not to come into the emergency department,
she said.
Dr. Sandhu wants parents to be educated about
childhood illnesses and also wants to empower
them so they can make some decisions before
showing up at an acute care facility.
The site is new for the Calgary and Strathmore
region; however, there have been somewhat similar efforts in different parts of the country.
Similar content can be found through MyHealth.
Alberta.ca, but Sandhu said they wanted to make
sure they werent reinventing the wheel or being
redundant.
Sandhu and the HEAL team collaborated with
MyHealth.Alberta.ca to ensure the site is as accessible and as literacy friendly as possible, without
being overwhelming or hard to navigate.
We really want it to be as relevant to families as
possible, said Sandhu.
The HEAL website team also consulted with 811
Health Link to ensure the use of similar information in different ways. Health Link provides health
advice from a registered nurse when patients call
in to a phone number 24 hours a day, seven days
a week.
Our information is sort of complimentary to
that, said Sandhu.
Content on the site comes directly from pediatric emergency medicine experts at the Alberta
Childrens Hospital and the Stollery Childrens
Hospital.
The people behind it (website) are the front
line workers that they (patients) would end up
seeing at the Childrens Hospital emergency department, said Sandhu.
The site strives to create an comfortable atmosphere by demonstrating what to expect when
coming to a hospital, showcasing videos about
emergency staff and revealing who is who at the
Alberta Childrens Hospital.
Alberta Health Services said HEAL was reviewed
by staff and families to ensure that it is userfriendly, understandable and easy to navigate.
The site provides useful links to the Alberta Childrens Hospital, the 811 Health Link and
emergency wait times.
HEAL is associated with Alberta Health Services
Know Your Options Campaign that helps educate Albertans about different health care options
available in different communities. Alberta Health
Services states that it strives to show the public,
how to get the right care in the right place.
Sandhu said the new site is going to be very
dynamic. We are hoping that people will actually
e-mail in and let us know what they would find
useful to further develop it, she said. We really
do want to add more information.

Busy time for Strathmore Chamber of Commerce

JILL CROSSLAND
Strathmore & District Chamber of Commerce
Marketing & Communications Director

Small Business Week, held Oct. 16-22, is a time
when we recognize the contributions of Canadas
small and medium-sized businesses to our communities and the economy.
This tradition began in 1979 when the Business Development Bank of Canada (BDC) business centres in British Columbias Lower Fraser
Valley pooled their resources to organize a week
of activities for entrepreneurs. It has gone on to
become a month-long celebration of small business with hundreds of activities for entrepreneurs
and potential entrepreneurs taking place across
the country.
Small to medium businesses need our support
as they often specialize in niche markets that
larger businesses cannot or will not compete in.
SMB tend to offer more personalized services and
products. While staff numbers cannot compete
with larger companies they are able to provide
support and flexibility to those who find it hard
to fit into a larger company dynamic. Even solo
entrepreneurs have a team of subcontractors behind them; virtual assistants, tech people & bookkeepers all gain from the growth of the small to
medium business they work for.
It was announced in September that the Alberta
government plans to introduce a tax credit for investments in small businesses in the fall sitting of
the legislature. The government says the tax credit
would support up to 4,400 new jobs over three
years and contribute up to $500 million to the
provinces GDP. Training programs for entrepreneurs will be restored, and small business taxes
will be cut.
This tax credit puts the onus on investors to
make the final decision on risk and efficiency,
while keeping their money in Alberta and putting
it toward growth-oriented firms, Justin Smith,
Calgary Chamber of Commerce said in a recent
news release.
The Strathmore Chamber knows this is a challenging time for all businesses; therefore a Small
Business Week Gala Awards Night did not seem
the appropriate way to utilize chamber member
funds. We have instead organized a series of small
events to celebrate our local businesses.
Starting with an Oct. 12 Lunch & Learn. Presenter, Ryan Tongs of World Financial Group will
speak about being An Entrepreneur in Todays
Economy.
This will take place from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.,
Community Futures Board Room Lower Level
On Oct. 20 there will be the Grand Opening
of the Chambers new office, 129 Second Avenue.
We hope you will drop by from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.
There will be light refreshments including cupcakes from Nut Out Cakes
Then on Oct. 27 a Business After 5 - Meet &
Mingle. Come and discover the mystical world
of Hobs Hobbies at 116 Second Avenue, Strathmore. Owner John Hilton-OBrien will speak to
the challenges and rewards of being in retail. He
will demonstrate how to play some of those magical games plus he and his wife Natalie make an
excellent caf latte! This event will take place from
5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.
Details will be available on the Chamber website http://strathmoredistrictchamber.com/chamber-events. As well as Twitter @SDCOC & Facebook.com/StrathmoreDistrictChamber.

Back to parliament
MARTIN SHIELDS
Member of Parliament Bow River Riding

The House of Commons began its fall session on
Sept. 19; Im happy to be back representing you
in Ottawa after a very eventful summer filled with
activities across Bow River.
This session, the Conservative Partys first goal
as the official opposition is to be the taxpayers advocate. We will stand up for taxpayers in the face
of any tax-and-spend behaviour we encounter.
That being said, I wanted to bring you up to
speed on some of the issues facing Parliament
right now.
Liberal Bill C-2, which cuts the amount that could
be placed in Tax Free Savings Accounts, and rolls
it back to $5,500 which can be placed in these accounts. This legislation passed third reading in the
House of Commons.
Liberal Bill C-4, which repeals important legislation passed by the previous Conservative government, is now at third reading in the House. This
will repeal laws that will take away the rights of
unionized workers to secret ballots as well as the
need for unions to demonstrate financial transparency.
Liberal Bill C-22, a piece of national security legislation, is currently before us. It aims to set up a
committee of MPs to scrutinize national security
organizations here in Canada. The makeup of the
committee and the information that can be seen

by the committee will be decided by the Prime
Minister if this legislation passes.
The House also passed a Conservative motion
unanimously calling for equality in the regional
representation of the Supreme Court of Canada.
We were proud that this was passed with all party
support, including that of the government. Its important that the Supreme Court, as a truly Canadian institution, have representation from coast to
coast to coast. Its important that every region in
Canada is well represented in the highest court of
the land.
Besides legislation, the Liberals approved the
Pacific Northwest LNG project, a boon for B.C.
and Canadas economy and a common-sense decision. This decision was reached by using the regime implemented by the previous Conservative
government. This means the proponent needs to
meet 190 stringent conditions before being able
to proceed with construction. Lets hope that we
see other positive decisions on important resource
projects, such as Energy East, Trans Mountain expansion and others.

All the Small Things (surprised I know Blink 182?)

PAT FULE
Fule for Thought
I was just shoveling in Maple Walnut ice cream
(my favourite), and I started to think of what actually makes me happy. Maybe youre like me,
and youve been finding out that little things that
happen, or simple family events, can bring simple
pleasures.
For example, last week I was on after-school
bus supervision. Yes, I know teachers have it easy
with summers, flex Fridays, Christmas, and spring
breaks, but after school bus supervision is one of
the lows of a school day.
Its great when the weathers nice, but standing in a snowy storm watching kids get on warm
buses, is not a lot of laughs. That is until last
Tuesday. I was standing in the cool, gentle howl
of a typical fall day, when a student drove by. Of
course, his car was full, the music was blasting,
and some shrieks came from inside. And thats
when I saw it, as our teen driver drove by, trying
to look cool. While his pals were all eating fast
food and drinking their sugar-loaded beverages,
his drink was still on the roof of the car!
In his coolness getting in, he mustve forgotten
the drink was still on top! I quickly pointed and
laughed so all the waiting students could join me,
and we thoroughly enjoyed wondering just when
that drink was going to dump all over his windshield. Enjoy your drink, I called out, and our
driver gave me a curious thumbs up I wonder
when it finally dumped out?
Summer barbecues are what I really love, and
recently we were having one at my in laws house
in Canmore. It was a scorching hot late afternoon,
and my father-in-law was barbecuing with his
shirt off! I finally said, just my luck, Im finally at
a place with a topless server, and it has to be my
74 year old father-in-law!
He actually took that better than I expected,
he never even burned my pork chop! I shouldnt
judge, especially if you remember my tanning episode in Phoenix last year, when my own moobs
left a white strip across my chest! In fact, I really
want to be in better shape for next years drivers
license photo. If I dont, then for the next five
years, I get to see my serious look with its three
chins staring back at me!
One of my dreams has always been to ride a
motorcycle again. In fact, (pun intended) Debbie has given me the green light! (hey, youre not
paying for these jokes!)
So, one of my daughters friends, John, and I
were talking about riding together one day, if I
get brave enough to buy a bike. The reason I am
taking so long to buy one, is that one of my pals
told me this cryptic warning: Its not if you have
a fall its when you have a fall!
All that was missing was dark music going
dun dun duh! Anyway, John and I were talking
about a club with him and me starting off, and
adding other cool riders. I even googled funny
names for motorcycle gangs and we narrowed
our gangs potential names to four choices: Hells
Amish, Runaway Amish (because John actually
ran away from an Amish community in Ontario),
my own idea: Hamsters of Death, and our favourite, Hells Fluffies!
Yep, we were on our way to some cool bikin
together, but then the talk strangely slipped to
songs wed like at our funerals! I didnt feel very
comfortable with this, especially when my daughter started to hum the tune to Queens Another
One Bites the Dust! Its got me thinking again,
that maybe I should start with a scooter!

Study looks at ways to keep seniors healthier

JANET KANTERS
Times Associate Editor

Alberta researchers hope 5,000 seniors across the province can help them
improve the health of those with chronic illnesses, such as diabetes and heart
disease.
Researchers are trying to determine
if interventions such as providing free
preventive medications and personalized educational programs will help
seniors better follow the recommendations of their doctors.
The project, called ACCESS (Assessing
outcomes of enhanced Chronic disease
Care through patient Education and a
value-based formulary Study), is funded
by Alberta Innovates-Health Solutions,

search, and others.

About 40 per cent of people with
chronic conditions take their prescribed
medications 100 per cent of the time,
according to Dr. Braden Manns, a Calgary nephrologist and the principal investigator in the study.
You cant feel high blood pressure or
high cholesterol and so its sometimes
difficult for patients to understand the
importance of taking preventive medications when theyre not currently experiencing any symptoms, said Dr. Manns,
also a professor in the University of Calgary Cumming School of Medicines departments of medicine and community
health sciences.
Not taking recommended medications
can hasten the development of cardiovascular disease and increase the risk of

life-threatening events, including heart

attack and stroke.
The other reason people might not
be getting their prescriptions filled is
financial. Although insurance covers a
significant portion of the cost of medication, the amount of the co-payment
can still be a significant burden for
some seniors, Manns added.
Estimates suggest treatment costs for
chronic conditions such as diabetes and
chronic kidney disease, as well as heart
attack and stroke, wind up costing the
Canadian health system more than $93
billion a year.
According to Dr. Scott Klarenbach, an
Edmonton nephrologist and professor
of medicine at the University of Alberta,
who is involved in the study, an important element that is being studied is the
personalized educational component.
People have the option of doing the
program online or through the mail.
The idea is that it gives people information and skills in a positive, engaging way that might allow them to better
manage their conditions.
To participate in the three-year study,
individuals must be over 65 years of
age, have an annual household income
less than $50,000, and be at high risk

of experiencing a cardiovascular event.
Participants will have a 50 per cent
chance of receiving free preventive
medications for diabetes, high blood
pressure, heart disease, blood thinners
and medications to help stop smoking
for the duration of the study. Study participants also receive a pedometer and
regular check-ins by phone with study
coordinators.
Researchers are assessing the outcomes of people randomly assigned to
four different intervention groups within the study: those who continue their
present medication coverage and usual
education through their physicians office; those who receive a personalized
education plan; those who receive free
preventive medications; or those who
receive both the personalized education
plan and free preventive medications.
Travel is not required for interviews
or assessments; all the interactions with
researchers take place by phone or email.

Nearly 100 students donned orange shirts Sept. 30 at Crowther Memorial Junior High School during Orange Shirt Day to honour and remember those that endured racism and bullying in residential
schools in Canada.

Wearing orange in support

TYLER LOWEY
Times Reporter

Students and faculty at Crowther Memorial Junior High School donned orange on Friday, Sept. 30, to support a
great cause.
Sept. 30 has been declared Orange
Shirt Day annually, in recognition of the
harm the residential school system did
to childrens sense of self-esteem and
well being, and as an affirmation of a
commitment to ensure everyone matters.
Orange Shirt Day was inspired by Phyllis Jack Webstad, a Stswecemc Xgattem
First Nation elder in Williams Lake, B.C.,
and by her first day at residential school
in 1973, when she was six.
We never had very much money,
and there was no welfare, but somehow my granny managed to buy me a
new outfit to go to the Mission school,
Webstad recalls in a post on the Orange
Shirt Day website (orangeshirtday.org).
I remember going to Robinsons store
and picking out a shiny orange shirt. It
had string laced up in front, and was so
bright and exciting just like I felt to be
going to school!
But her first day at school was not
what Webstad expected.
When I got to the Mission, they
stripped me, and took away my clothes,
including the orange shirt! I never saw
it again. I didnt understand why they

wouldnt give it back to me, it was mine!
And ever since then, the colour orange has held a special meaning to her.
The colour orange has always reminded me of that and how my feelings
didnt matter, how no one cared and
how I felt like I was worth nothing, she
wrote. All of us little children were crying and no one cared.
On Sept. 30, 2013, Webstad organized
the first Orange Shirt Day in Williams
Lake to acknowledge the harm that Canadas residential school system has left
in generations of indigenous families
and their communities.
And every year on Sept. 30, Canadians
are asked to wear orange as a sign of
support.
Crowther Memorial Junior High
School took the initiative and on Sept.
30, about 100 students and staff wore
orange shirts in support of Webstads
experience.
We have a strong native population
here and its important for everyone
to understand the history and heritage
behind it and not make the same mistakes, said associate principal Ryan
Hunter. We also feel its important for
our native students to show how its impacted their grandparents.
This was CMJHSs inaugural Orange
Shirt Day and its a tradition the school
plans to uphold.
Artists Among Us gala a hit


We wouldnt be here without our
community, she said.
This is a well-attended, family fun
event and the whole community including professional artists, community
artists and hobbyists will have something to enjoy. There will be an auction,
and after the evening performances, coffee and dessert will be served.
The desserts will be homemade and
Reinholdt considers them to be the
yummiest of desserts. Volunteers are
welcome to help make desserts or to
work in the Hope Church kitchen on the
day of the gala.
Doors open at 6:30 p.m. and evening
performances will run from 7 p.m. to 9
p.m. There will be door prizes, a raffle
and prize draws from ticket purchases.
The gala has had
great
volunteers
year in and year
out
supporting
this popular event,
and this year there
are a lot of different ways the public can

contribute towards the Hope Bridges
gala, including purchasing raffle tickets
and giving private donations.
Tickets are $10 each and can be purchased at the door, or in advance by calling the Hope Bridges Society at 403-9833640 or visiting the studio. They can also
be purchased in
advance through

Library programming provides cost effective community hub

MELISSA STRLE
Times Reporter

Fall programming at the Strathmore
library is in full swing and there are
many different programs being offered.
According to Carmen Erison, assistant director of library services at the
Strathmore Library, fall is an exciting
time of year for us because a lot of
our ongoing programs have started up
again, from Storytime to our popular
Signing Strathmore program as well as
Crafternoon.
We are finding the library is becoming busier and busier with the way
the economy is, Erison said. We are
becoming more of a community hub
where people can come have fun, enjoy, meet people and learn new things.
Generally, all library programming is
free, and we want to make everything
cost effective, Erison said. The last
thing we want to do is create a barrier
for families to not be able to come to
the library because they cant afford a
program. We also dont require people
to have a library card to attend our
programs. We welcome everybody.
Baby Goose Rhyme Time is a free
drop-in class for parents and new babies up to 12 months of age. The class
features rhymes, songs and stories,
and is currently running every Monday

morning for an hour.
Nighttime Tales is another free, weekly drop-in program offered Wednesday
evenings, where children can come in
their pajamas with a favourite stuffed
animal and enjoy quiet stories and
songs.
Signing Strathmore, along with
Deanne Wagner-Mercer, leads participants through the American Sign Language University program to teach the
basics of sign language on Thursday
evenings. The program is in its second
year and offers a fun and relaxed way
to learn sign language.
Erison said the program allows people to come in and learn a whole new
language for no cost at all.
Crafternoon started Sept. 12 and is
a free, drop-in class every week with
different themes. The class is offered to
Grade 1 through 6 students or younger
children if a parent also attends. This is
an after-school kids craft program.
It really just draws kids creativity, said Erison. Were very fortunate
we have such a creative group of staff
members.
Other library programs include Lego
in the Library, Minecraft Mania, Stitchin
Time, Storytime and Winging It.

MP MARTIN SHIELDS
WILL BE OPENING A
STRATHMORE CONSTITUENCY OFFICE
with the library that we will run programming every time the kids are off
school, said Erison, and this is partly
accomplished by holding a fun film
day during school professional development days.
Erison said that even though books
and learning are one large aspect of
what the library does, it is in the midst
of evolving away from strictly books,
towards more programming.
The library is always looking for new
class and program ideas, and Erison
said everyone is welcome to approach
the library with possible program ideas.
The library is running a program
punch card for kids aged 15 and under.
Kids are able to get their cards punched
for every program attended and receive
a small prize for every fifth, 10th and
15th punch.
In addition, Erison said when cardholders fill their cards, their name is
entered for a draw at the end of the
year. She said they will be drawing for
a $100 gift card of the winners choice.
The only stipulation is that punch card
holders need to have the card with
them when they come to the program.
There will be a Halloween program
on Oct. 28, along with a Remembrance
Day program and various upcoming
films. Last year the Halloween program
saw up to 100 youth attend.
Erison said she would love to do
more adult programming. Currently
there is a knitting group that meets
once a week. The library has attempted
to do author talks but attendance has
always been very slim.
Library cards are reasonably priced
at $20 for the whole family, and every
person gets a free card as well.
Families can borrow the latest books
and new movie releases, and these are
a great way to provide cost-crunching
entertainment during the hard times,
said Erison.
Alexandra Keeling (l) and Heather Ulmer help administer various programs at the Strathmore Library including Crafternoon, Baby Goose Rhyme
Time, Lego at the Library and Nighttime Tales.

Mertz muscles through

Cozumel triathlon
TYLER LOWEY
Times Reporter

Most people travel to Mexico to escape the cold, bask
on the beaches and breaststroke over to the poolside
bar.
But not Kevin Mertz. He
just returned from Cozumel
with his best placing at a
world championship triathlon event.
Mertz finished 27th in
the 40-44 Male AG Sprint in
1:06.18 during the International Triathlon Union event
Sept. 15.
Placing 27th and being
the first Canadian in my age
group is one measure of a
successful year, said the
40-year-old Mertz.
Mertz loves to train and
loves to push himself to the
limit, mentally and physically. Typically exercising eight
to 10 times a week, Mertz
covers it all as he hits the
bike, the pool, the track and
the weight room.
I have a great group of
friends who I run and bike
with as often as I can which
makes the workload very enjoyable, said Mertz.
Mertz
completed
the
750-metre swim in 10:17; the
20-kilometre bike in 31:12,
and the 5 km run in 21:06.
While not claiming he has
a particular favourite of the
three disciplines, Mertz said
he enjoys hopping on the
bike and exploring. He has
also been known to take his
bike with him everywhere.
We often plan our vacations and camping trips
around places that have
paved roads so he can go
out for a ride each morning,
joked his wife Jen. We are
heading out to Vernon (B.C.)
this weekend and I bet his
bike will be strapped to the
back of our car.
Although he has only competed at the international
level for three years, Mertz
has been racing locally and
provincially for six years.
He enters about four races a
season.
This was his third world
championship. He raced in
London in 2013 and Edmonton in 2014. Mertz placed
13th in 2014 in the 35-39
Male AG Sprint in 1:09.06
and finished 33rd in London
at 1:10.59.
Jen has only missed a few
races throughout her husbands career. She will often
head out a few days in advance to get a mini vacation
before the race starts. The
couple brings their three
kids along and makes a family trip out of it.
I have enjoyed the support my family has given
me, allowing me to compete.
Although I have lots of supporters out there, my wife
Jen is the one who feeds me,
helps motivate me and deals
with the tired, cranky, dedi-
Kevin Mertz running through the first

transition zone from the swim to the
bike portion on the World International Union triathlon last month in
Cozumel, Mexico.

cated athlete, said Mertz.

One thing that stood out
about this race was the
weather. When the starting
gun sounded, it was a cool
27 C, and when he crossed
the finish line it was a sweltering 38 C with 90 per cent
humidity.
That was fun for an Albertan, said Mertz. I did
however have the heat and
humidity accounted for in
my race plan and was able
to finish with a solid last 1
km push.
Jen and her kids cooked
like quesadillas in the heat
watching Kevin compete,
and said that the ocean water was so warm it wasnt
even refreshing.
It was so hot we had to
stay in the shade to cheer him
on, said Jen. We planned
out our day to go with places
that had shade and plenty of
water to drink.
Jen manages the Strathmore Silver Sharks Swim
Club and coaches kids 12-18
years old. Running the swim
club for five years now, Jen
acts as a coach for her husband, balancing his training and rest schedule, along
with managing his diet.
I have a pretty good understanding what he needs
to accomplish in his training and how his body works
in order to perform at his
peak, said Jen. He can get
a little stressed out during
his time of rest before a race,
but that is where I step in
and reassure him that he is
doing just fine.
I have so much love and
respect for her ( Jen). She is
definitely our glue, my biggest fan and best supporter,
said Mertz.
Mertz has lived in Strathmore for 13 years and has
taught for 13 years. Currently, he is an instructional
coach for the Golden Hills
School Division. In his spare
time when not on a bike, he
enjoys canoeing, hiking and
watching his Edmonton Eskimos and Oilers. He also
checked out the triathlon
during the Rio Olympics this
summer and watches all the
races from the International
Triathlon Union.
Watching the best of the
best, pushing themselves is
very inspirational and entertaining, he said.

Strathmore High School

Spartans middle linebacker Aubrey Laveck
wraps up W.H. Croxford
Cavaliers running back
Keegan Proudlock in
an exhibition game at
Strathmore High School
field on Sept. 30.
Spartans spank Hawks

TYLER LOWEY
Times Reporter
An aerial attack elevated the Strathmore High School Spartans over the
W.H. Croxford Cavaliers 27-6 in an exhibition game Sept. 30 at Strathmore
High School field.
The Spartans offence was tied up in
the first quarter. The Cavaliers were
blitzing every down, resulting in a
scoreless tie after one.
They were loading the box early,
they were sending eight down with
only four guys left to cover, said Spartans head coach Travis Gorski when
talking about the Cavaliers defensive
scheme. When we see eight up front,
we try to catch them off balance by
coming out and throwing the ball.
It wasnt pretty in the beginning: senior quarterback Isaac Wegner started
1-for-5 on pass attempts but was able
to get the ball rolling in the second
quarter.
Kevin Agboro netted his first touchdown last week and put the Spartans
on the board when he received a fiveyard catch on third and goal. He added
a 34-yard scamper to pay dirt late in
the fourth quarter to put the Cavaliers
away.
Kevin is a shifty player for us. As a
Grade 10 kid, being able to produce in
a senior game is pretty impressive. He
has had some experience in the past
and it shows, said Gorski.
We started out slow today and thats
something we need to work on; we
didnt have our head in the game, said
Spartans slotback Agboro.
Gorski and his staff have used a valiant 18-14 loss to the heralded Medicine Hat Mohawks earlier in the season
as a way to try and get his team back
on track.
When our pass offence wasnt
working, coach pulled us aside and reminded us of that Med Hat game. He
said that if we were playing Med Hat
Tyler Lowey Photo
right now, we would be getting blown

out, said Agboro. That Med Hat game
showed us what we are capable of and
that we shouldnt have a problem playing teams like this.
The Cavaliers tried to get their offence rolling in the second quarter as
well. They started connecting on passes to the flats and that gave Gorksis
defence some trouble.
The Cavaliers punched in their only
touchdown immediately following a
play that Grade 10 cornerback Nathan
Cayouette would like to have back.
Cayouette was tight with his man in
coverage when the pass was underthrown. Cayouette abandoned his man
to make a play for the ball, but the ball
slipped right through his hands. The
very next play, the Cavaliers running
back Keegan Proudlock connected on
a 40-yard touchdown reception with
just over 30 seconds remaining in the
half.
That didnt slow Cayouette down at
all. He remained focused in the second
half, helping out on tackles, and picked
up the hit of the game when he plastered the Cavaliers receiver along the
left sideline.
Hes another Grade 10 that does a
lot for us. Teams will often try to go
at him, but its rare to see plays being
made on his side of the field, said Gorski.
The win springboarded the Spartans
(1-1 in league play, 2-0 in exhibition
matches) up to ninth in the Tier III provincial rankings. It is the first time they
have been ranked in the Top 10 this
season.
The Spartans return to Rangeland
Football Conference action Oct. 6,
when they travel to Medicine Hat to
take on the Crescent Heights High
School Vikings at the Methanex Bowl.
Their next home game goes Friday,
Oct. 14, when the McCoy High School
Colts arrive at Strathmore High School
field.

Tied 2-2 heading into the third period, the Strathmore Wheatland Kings
handcuffed themselves and spent
half the period sitting in the sin bin.
The Mountainview Colts poured on
three third period goals, surpassing
the Kings 5-2 Saturday night in Heritage Junior Hockey League action at
the Strathmore Family Centre.
That four-minute penalty kill at the
start of the period kind of burnt us
out. We couldnt really get anything
else going after that, said Kings assistant coach Braden Desmet. We
had a few chances, couldnt capitalize
and they capitalized on their chances.
Thats kind of the way she went tonight.
Being on the powerplay definitely helped us out tonight, said Colts
assistant captain Evan Ingram, who
ended the night with a pair of assists.

tems and they worked.

The Colts started last season 10-0
and are off to a similar pace as they
sit 4-1 and in second place in the
North Division.
Brady Hoover started the first three
games for the Kings in net, so to provide him some rest, Indiana Kelly
made his junior hockey debut and recorded 29 saves on 34 shots.
Kelly (17) was taken aback by the
speed of the game, but then settled
in nicely.
This was much faster. Really, really
faster, said Kelly, who played for the
Calgary Saints of Division 2 in Calgary last year. It took me a little bit
to get used to it, but once I got it dialed in, I was able to keep the team
in the game.
The defending HJHL champs
jumped out to a quick 2-0 lead on
goals from Reed Engman and Spencer Dowd, but the Kings stormed
back on the man advantage.

Chiefs capture pair of wins

TYLER LOWEY
Times Reporter
The Wheatland Chiefs blasted away
the competition during their opening weekend of South Central Alberta
Hockey League play.
The local double-A midget team took
no prisoners as they treated the Cranbrook Dynamiters like a tomato can,
peppering them with 68 shots during
their 8-0 shutout.
Our returning guys are playing well
and the new guys have bought into our
system, said Chiefs assistant coach
Matt Gass.
Riley Romashenko led the charge
with two goals and an assist.
Hes really talented. He has good
hands, great vision and gets to the good
spots on the ice. If he keeps moving his
legs, hes going to be hard for anyone in
this league to stop, said Gass.
The Chiefs only led 3-0 heading into
the third when the floodgates opened.
Sometimes this game can be tough;
playing against a team that might be
a little below you and after a long bus
ride. But our guys brought the energy

and it was a big win, said Gass.
Single snipes came from Ryan Longmuir, Wacy Sandum, Zachary Suntjens,
Isaac Benoit, Robert Butterwick and
Adrian Kusu. Chayse Hnatowich and
Kelton Travis picked up three assists
each.
Hnatowich and Butterwick played
on the same line as Romashenko last
season so I think those guys are clicking pretty well already, added Gass.
The Chiefs (2-0) welcomed the new
season with a 3-0 blanking of the Olds
Grizzlys (0-2) Friday (Sept. 1) at the
Strathmore Family Centre.
It feels great. Thats a great way to
start off your season, having everyone
rolling and doing their job, said Chiefs
captain Bell. Cant ask for much more
than that.
Scott Desserre, Kusu and Benoit were
the snipers with assists coming from
Ryan McHarg, Tyler Skehar (2), Butterwick, Romashenko and Travis.
At the other end of the ice, Ty Tarvyd
has turned away all 40 shots this season.
It feels pretty darn good. Im pretty
excited, we got a great team in front of
me, I just have to try and do my part,
said Tarvyd after posting back-to-back
shutouts to start the season.
Continuity doesnt seem to be an
obstacle for the Chiefs; many of these
players have played together in the past
at some point.
Bell, who has played for Wheatland
since peewee, said the bonds and chemistry are already there after playing with
one another in years past.
Theres just one game on tap for the
Chiefs this weekend. They host the
Taber Golden Suns (0-1-1) at 7:30 p.m.
Saturday (Oct. 8) at the Strathmore
Family Centre.
WARRIORS EDGED OUT
Meanwhile, a 5-5 tie with the Taber
Golden Suns (Friday, Sept. 30) and a 3-2
edging by the Red Deer Ramada (Sunday, Oct.2) had the bantam Warriors
coaching staff feeling like an opportunity for points slipped away over the
weekend.
We shot ourselves in the foot from
the beginning. We werent working
hard from the get go and they took

bronze medal match. The senior boys won gold

they travel to Medicine Hat for a tournament Oct.

advantage, said Warriors head coach

Cody Brown following Sundays game.
Ramada jumped in front when a shot
from the point more like a changeup by Carter Claerhout coasted along
the ice like a nice hard pass and fooled
Warriors goaltender Corey Ross.
The Warriors (0-3-1) tied it in the
second when Nolan Bailey took a pass
from the point from Kobe Gosling, corralled the puck, launching a backhand
on net. Bailey gathered the rebound and
pumped it in on his second attempt.
The Warriors took the lead in the
third, when on a two-on-one rush Zach
Nicholls shot the puck hard and low,
creating a bouncing rebound for Bryce
Benfield. The puck bounced up and
hit Benfield in the chest before coming
back down, where he stuffed in the garbage.
If we come out firing, playing all 60
minutes of hockey, theres no doubt that
we win that game, said Brown.
Ramada (1-3) became too much too
handle offensively down the stretch, as
they netted goals from Jack Walton and
Nick Grimes.
Desperation kicked in during the final three minutes. The Warriors held the
puck in the Ramada zone for nearly the
remaining time, but couldnt push one
across.
Its still early and we got lots of time
left. We got to get all 19 guys rolling
and working hard every night, then we
can get somewhere, said Brown.
The Warriors look to turn things
around on the road when they travel to
Medicine Hat to take on the Hounds (21) Friday (Oct. 7) at Moose Recreation
Arena. Theyre in action the following
night in Airdrie battling the Lightning
(2-0) at Rob Ebbesen Twin Arena.
The Warriors next home game goes
Saturday, Oct. 15 against the Okotoks
Oilers (2-1) at Hussar Arena.
BRAVES LOSE TWO

We cant play scared. We have to
break a sweat, nothing is going to be
given to us at this level, said Braves
head coach Keith Klemmensen. Our effort against Bow Valley was much better.
Josh Alberda, Tate Yule, Philip Raycroft and Cole Tweit tickled the twine
against the T-Wolves, with assists coming from Garrin Gosling (2), Jack Slemp,
Nolan Bell, Tyler Fairbairn, Adam Moore
(2) and Yule.
We were down 5-2 and came back to
make it a respectable game. It was truly
more of a 5-4 type loss than anything,
said Klemmensen. Its not laziness or
these kids being allergic to work; for
most of these kids it has been an eye
opener at this level. Its a marathon, not
a sprint. These kids will be fine.
Fairbairn, Slemp and Bell picked up
goals against the Oilers with assists
from Ryder Many Grey, Carter Gosling
and Fairbairn.

Bisons start season

with back-to-back wins
TYLER LOWEY
Times Reporter
The goal lamps were put to the test in
the first weekend of the Alberta Midget
Hockey League, as the CFR Chemical Bisons poured in 10 goals over two games
at the Strathmore Family Centre.
I really like how we played together
and as a team this weekend, said Bisons
forward Jackson Salt. Those were two
good wins for the boys.
The Bisons tamed the SEAC Tigers 4-2
Saturday afternoon (Oct. 1) wrapping up
weekend play.
A point shot from Cayde Augustine was
deflected downwards in front by Salt to
put the Bisons on the board in the first.
Salt wasnt done there with the fine
stick work as he skated in on the Tigers
defence, faked a shot, stepped through
a defender and flipped the puck over
Tigers netminder Nelson Schiller for the
pretty individual effort.
We got a lot of creative guys on this
team. When it works, it works and it
looks great. We arent going to try and
take any creativity out of the game, said
Bisons head coach Sandy Henry. When
you got a guy 1-on-1, go on and try some
stuff and see what happens.
The 16-year-old Salt suited up for the
Rocky Mountain House Raiders in bantam AAA last season, racking up 13 goals
and 33 points in 33 games.
Bisons captain Brent Trentham added
a second-period tally from Joel Krahenbil, extending the lead to 3-0 heading
into the third.
Seven minutes in, Tyler Petrie used his
body to protect the puck coming out of
the corner, as he stormed towards the
net. His initial shot was stopped, but he
stayed with it and banged home the rebound.
We got a little loose once we got up
4-0, said Henry. Maybe we thought we
had a little bit more space than we actually did, Im not sure. Thats when we got
into a bit of trouble.
For the majority of the game, Bisons
goaltender Hunter Young had it pretty

easy he only faced 13 shots through
the first two frames, most of the nonthreatening variety.
The boys played well. They kept it
tight on dee and didnt allow too many
pucks to come to the net, said Young.
The less shots, the better.
The Tigers (0-1-1) made a late push in
the third while on the man advantage.
Halfway through the frame, Aiden Gleisner was rewarded for crashing the net
and pounding away at a few rebounds
in tight. Four minutes later, Austin Strang
blasted a point shot past a completely
screened Young.
As soon as we learn to manage the
puck a little bit better in certain spots, we
will be much better. We got to be a little
bit more disciplined with our leads, said
Henry. But, we came into the weekend
hoping for four points and we got what
we asked for. At the end of the day, thats
all that matters.
The Bisons dusted the Lethbridge AAA
Hurricanes 6-1 on Oct. 2 in their regular
season opener.
Boaz Bassen tallied a pair of goals
while Tarun Fizer netted a goal and two
helpers. Kaden Hanas chipped in with a
goal and an assist, with remaining scoring coming from Zach Huber (1G), Petrie
(1G), Peyton Krebs (1A), Brandon Machado (2A), Tyson Scott (2A) and Tyson
Terretta (1A).
Cochrane product Ben Laidlaw got the
call in the crease and turned away 18 of
19 shots.
The Hurricanes sit 0-2 on the young
season.
The Bisons will get their first taste of
life on the road when they take on the
CAC Gregg Distributors (0-2) Saturday
(Oct. 8) at Sherwood Park Arena. Next,
they head to the Leduc Recreation Centre
Sobeys Arena to battle the Leduc Chrysler Oil Kings (1-1) the following day. The
Bisons went 1-0-1 last season against the
Oil Kings and Distributors.
The next home game goes Oct. 21,
when they host the Oil Kings.

Bantam Badgers improve win record

TYLER LOWEY
Times Reporter
The Great Wall of China couldnt have protected the Strathmore Community Football Association bantam Badgers end zone any better than
their defensive unit did in the final three minutes.
The Badgers slammed the door on three
straight red zone possessions to domesticate the
Olds Bulldogs 18-12 in Central Football League
action Oct. 1 at a misty Crowther Memorial Junior
High School Field.
Our D stepped up to the plate and proved
something today, said Badgers head coach Brad
Middlemiss. They were big when we needed
them to be. They got stops that we needed so
badly.
The Badgers (2-1) were led all afternoon on defense by their swarming linebacker Riley Southern. Southern recorded 16 tackles and was stapling Bulldogs to the turf.
Thats a pretty typical game for Riley. Hes a
beast, super fast and he has great sights to what
is going on out there, said Middlemiss. Hes our
superstar on defence.
However, when the Badgers needed their best
defender the most, he wasnt on the field. He was
removed from the game with 2:01 remaining after taking what looked to be another shot to the
head. This was the second time he was removed
due to injury precaution.
Bulldogs bench players began to whisper and
sheepishly grin knowing the path to the promised land seemed exceptionally easier with southern sidelined.
The Bulldogs trailed 18-12 with 4:36 remaining and had three different possessions inside the
red zone. They couldnt crack the Badgers goal
line stand. The closest they got was when running back Lucas Mulholland took a pitch to the
left and saw daylight between himself and the
goal line.
Middlemiss defence swarmed and tackled him
just shy of the end zone at the two-yard line.
I think we got screwed, shouted Bulldogs assistant coach Scott Layden. We thought we had a
touchdown, then the refs changed their mind and
then we didnt agree with their placement of the
spot either.
At first glance, the ref did signal a Bulldog
touchdown. After meeting with the other officials,
the refs placed the ball on the two-yard line, resulting in a turnover on downs Badger ball.
While the defence saved the game late, the
ground and pound, one-two punch combination
of Luke Henry and Angelina Palardy carried the
offensive load.
We knew with such a wet field that we were
going to have to run the ball a lot today, said
Middlemiss.
Henry busted off a pair of touchdown runs,
including a 66-yard TD carry. Palardy was constantly pounding the ball through the heart of the
Bulldogs defence.
Quarterback Nicolas Heaton scored the other
touchdown on a three-yard quarterback sneak
during the opening drive.
I coached Angelina in peewee, shes a beast
and hard to bring down up the middle, said Middlemiss. Luke brings speed, effort and doesnt
stop. His YAC (yards after catch) is impressive. He
just runs and runs and runs.
The Badgers have a bye week and will resume
play Oct. 15, on the road in Innisfail.
PEEWEE BADGERS STILL UNDEFEATED
The peewee Badgers (4-0) had trouble moving
the ball against the Lacombe Explosion defensive
line, but once they did break free onto the slower
secondary unit, they capitalized.
We had trouble marching the field. We couldnt
get any small five-yard plays to work. All of our
scoring was done on plays 20 yards or longer,
said Badgers head coach Doug Theissen.
The Badgers bumped the Explosion 34-6 Saturday (Oct. 1) in rainy Lacombe.
After being backed up three times on three
straight illegal procedure penalties, Theissen dialed up an unusual play call for third down with
15 yards to go from his own 15-yard line.
Its not a typical spot for that call and we did
have trouble running the ball that day. I just
thought if our quarterback kept it, that provided
us an extra blocker with our running back, said
Theissen. We use a lot of motion in our offence,
so I had both slotbacks come over along with the
Strathmore Community Football Association bantam Badgers linebacker

running back and we were able to pick up enough blocks.

The quarterback in charge of the sneak was Brady Johansen. He picked up the first down and more, much more.
Johansen stormed 90 yards to the house.
Daniel Barbas registered a pair of TDs and Dawson Jensen weaved his way into the end zone as well.
Up next for the Badgers will be their tallest task thus
far, maybe even a championship preview. The Sylvan Lake
Bears also sit 4-0 and have been clobbering teams by 20 or
more points.
We are going to prepare big time for this one, said Theissen. We need to have good, intense practices with the
correct mindset to fix some of our smaller issues. We had
a little bit of a problem with ball control in the rain. We
fumbled a few snaps and that will cost us against a team
like [Sylvan].
The undefeated bowl takes place 11:30 a.m. Saturday
(Oct. 8) at CMHJS field.
SENIOR BADGERS GAME SATURDAY
The senior Badgers (3-0-1) had the weekend off on a bye
and pick up this Saturday (Oct. 8) at 2 p.m. when they host
the Carstairs Tigers at CMJHS field.

Terrific teams
Strathmore Minor Hockey used an evaluation

boys teams at the Strathmore Family Centre.

Kings fall
to Colts
Colts forward Alan Klinck caught
Kings assistant captain Brenden Moore
with an inadvertent high stick in the corner that drew blood. The resulting penalty gave the Kings a four-minute powerplay. Desmet mentioned after the game
that Moore did not require stitches and
that it was just a healthy gash.
Our powerplay has been the centre
point of our offence early this year. We
gave these guys the foundation and the
reins, and their creativity has taken off,
said Desmet.
Kings defenseman Hayden Vanderploeg faked a shot at the blue line, sidestepped the shot blocker and unloaded
a bomb, beating Colts goalie Jake Carlsons high blocker. The goal came 1:51
into the four-minute advantage, at 9:51
in the first. Assists came from Brooker
Pretty Youngman and Joby Raine.
Jak Faris knotted the game at two on
the same powerplay as he jammed in a
loose puck in front of the net at 11:02,
with assists coming from Laval Jerry and
Bradley Tingey.
The Kings (2-3) have now converted
12 out of 25 man advantages (0.48 per
cent).
Playing their second game of a backto-back on the weekend, the Kings legs
might have gotten a little heavy once the
third period set in.
We started veering away from our
game plan, said Kings captain Keenan
Ogle. We wanted to stay disciplined, get
pucks in deep, be first to the puck. But
we stopped moving our feet and started
trying to do stuff with our sticks. When
that happens, it makes it pretty easy for
the refs to make calls.
For the Kings, this was the first game
this year where they didnt hold the lead
or tie the game in the third period.
The Stettler Lightning stormed the
Kings 7-6 in a barnburner at the Stettler Recreation Centre Friday night (Sept.
30).
Matt Thompson and Kristian Ayoungman bagged a pair of snipes each, while
Ryan Grasdahl and Ogle supplied one
goal each. Assists came from George
Montour, Nolan Lightning, Pretty Youngman, Raine, Jerry (2) and Vanderploeg.
The Kings are receiving scoring from
nearly everyone on their roster; all but
two players have registered points so far.
The Kings host the Red Deer Vipers at
(2-4) 8 p.m. on Oct. 7 at the Strathmore
Family Centre and hit the road Sunday
(Oct. 9) to take on the Blackfalds Wranglers (0-3).
The Kings went 1-1 last season against
the Vipers and Wranglers.
Nick was born in 1924 in Hungary.

He came to Canada in 1931 and
lived in Supreme, Saskatchewan
for a short time and then moved to
Raleigh, Alberta. In 1937, he moved to Cowley, Alberta where he worked summers on the A7 Ranch
until 1941 when he joined the RCAF and spent the
next four years overseas. He met his wife, Joan,
and they were married in England in 1945. They
returned to Cowley in 1946 and then to Calgary in
1948 where he spent the next 16 years working
for Calgary Transit. In 1964 Nick began working for
CPR as a mechanic in the Alyth back shop where he
remained until his retirement in 1989. He spent his
retirement years doing what he loved; hunting and
fishing. He especially looked forward to his west
coast trips to go salmon fishing. Nick loved to visit,
was quick with a joke, and always enjoyed drop-in
company, whether it was for coffee or a sip of his
special wine and homemade sausage. He was
predeceased by his wife Joan in 2008 and daughter
Sheila in 2016. He is fondly and lovingly remembered by his four sons, Reg (Ingrid), Brian (Cindy),
Nick (Diane), and Michael (Susan); six grandchildren, Wayne, Dan (Jen), Christopher (Adele),
Stephanie (Curtis), Mandy (Russ), and Steven; ten
great-grandchildren, Kimberli, Brandon, Brittany,
Jace, Victoria, Joshua, Ava, Lucy, Harper, and London; great-great-grandchild, Aleeah; as well as a
number of great friends gathered along the way. A
memorial service will be held on Saturday, October

HOOGE, Earl William
It is with sadness that we announce
the passing of Earl William Hooge on
Wednesday, September 28th, 2016 at
the age of 94. He will be forever loved
and remembered by his five children, Glen (Colleen),
Grant (Darlene), Greg, Lori Kaminski and Lois (Ian Currie). He is also survived by his 12 grandchildren, Todd
& Tanya, Crystal (Ken), Blaire (Heather) and Stefanie,
Candis and Landon, Shane, Greg and Kimberly, Jessica and Mark; and his 10 great grandchildren Devyn,
Cassie, Chloe, Mataya, Kiaya, Brady, Spencer, Hunter,
Haylee and Jade. Dad also leaves to mourn his passing his special friend and companion Norma Skibsted;
his sister in law Margaret Ledoux; his brother in law
Bruce (Myrtle) McTavish; his daughter in law Judi; his
son in law Dale; as well as many nieces, nephews and
friends. Dad was pre-deceased by Mom, his wife of
65 years, Audrey; his infant great granddaughter Willa
Twyla Hooge; and his infant great great grandson Kai
Earl Robert Walkus. Dad was also pre-deceased by his
parents John and Karoline (Lovisa) Hooge; all seven of
his siblings - Louise, Johnny, Christian, Agnes, Velma,
David and his twin brother Ernest, as well as their
spouses. He was the oldest living member of his family. Dad knew that the longest anyone had lived was
93 and he was determined to outlive that age. He lived
94 years and 3 days short of 4 months. Dad was born
in Theodore, Saskatchewan on May 31st, 1922 along
with his twin brother Ernest. Together, they completed
the family of eight children. Dad took his schooling in
Theodore and finished grade 10. In 1941, Dad suffered
a broken back and travelled to recuperate with his sister Agnes in a tiny Alberta town called Irma. Years later
one of his children would wed a young man from Irma.
On October 13, 1942, Dad and his twin brother Ernest
both joined the Armed Forces in Regina. His first posting was to Saskatoon with Ernest where they were stationed together for seven months. Dad was then sent
to Toronto and Ernest to Edmonton. It was the first time
they had ever been separated in their lives. The Sergeant was glad to see them go. He could not tell which
one was which, and they exchanged I.D. and late passes to suit their situation, keeping the old Sergeant in
a state of constant confusion. In March of 1944 Mom
met Dads twin brother Ernest travelling on a bus from
Portage la Prairie. They became friends. How she met
Dad in the Hudsons Bay store is a favorite family story.
Mom thought it was Uncle Ernest but it was Dad and
he gave her the complete cold shoulder. Luckily they
sorted things out when she visited Ernest in the hospital a few days later and at the foot of his bed sat Dad. A
courtship ensued and Mom and Dad became engaged
on Moms birthday, October 24, 1944 and were married in a candlelight ceremony in McCreary, Manitoba
on December 23, 1944. Dad spent the majority of his
time in the service building airplane hangers during the
war in many parts of Canada. Mom and Dad spent their

apart as Dad was stationed in Whitehorse. Dad received
two medals during his time of service during the war. The
World War II volunteer medal and the Victory metal. The
war ended and Dad returned from Whitehorse and was
discharged from the RCAF on February 16, 1946. Civilian
life took Mom and Dad to Sandy Hook, Manitoba until an
invitation from Moms parents to join them in a move to
Vancouver. They settled in Vancouver in 1946 and were
joined by Glen in 1947 and Grant in 1950. They returned
to live in Manitoba in April of 1952 following the death
of Moms Mom. They settled back into McCreary and
were joined by Greg in 1953 and Lori in 1959. During
those years Dad did whatever he could to find work to
support his family, including farming. He found his passion in construction and although it took him away from
home and family for long periods of time, he knew it was
what he needed to do to support his family. After long
stretches in the North, Mom and all four kids joined Dad
in Thompson, Manitoba on May 5, 1961. In February of
1962 Lois joined the family. Dad worked as a carpenter
in the nickel mine and received his Journeyman papers
in 1975. He would work all day during his shift at the
mine and then spent most evenings doing extra jobs
in carpentry and became an expert carpet layer. Many
evenings were spent laying carpet after a full day at
the mine. In 1975, Mom, Dad, Lori and Lois travelled to
Calgary to spend Christmas with Grant and his family.
It was 14 degrees above zero on Christmas Day and
Mom and Dad decided they had been in the bush long
enough. They returned home, sold the house, and the
following summer they moved to southern Alberta and
settled in Claresholm. Dad found work doing what he
loved in different areas of carpentry. When they retired,
Mom and Dad began to travel and enjoyed many years
down south where they built new lifelong friendships.
They also enjoyed trips to Europe and Hawaii, a cruise
to Alaska and finally made one of their dreams come
true when they travelled to New Zealand and Australia. In 1992 Mom and Dad decided to sell the truck and
trailer and settled in Lethbridge. In 2002 Mom and Dad
moved to the Strathmore Lodge to be closer to family.
After Moms passing in 2010, Dad continued on his own
- building new friendships and enjoying his time in the
Lodge. Dad struggled with his lungs and his breathing for
many years but despite those struggles he was still able
to meet his goal of outliving every older member of his
family. We are grateful that Dad passed peacefully, on his
own terms, with the glow of the sunset upon him. Rest in
peace Dad. A memorial service will be held on Friday, October 7, 2016 at Wheatland Funeral Chapel (Strathmore)

MEMORIAMS
In Loving Memory of
Richard John Stanley Hornby

April 24, 1935 October 7, 2013
Gone are the days we used to share

Still in my heart, you are always there
A special person with a special face
You, I love and cannot replace
Though your smile is gone forever
And your hand I cannot touch or hold
I still have so many wonderful memories
Of the one I loved so much.
We miss you each and every day and love you,
Stan forever!
Your wife Verna, daughter Donna,
Son-in-law Wayne, and grandson Daniel.
THANK YOUS
Thank You
The McKinnon and Harrison families wish

to express our gratitude and appreciation
to everyone for all of your messages, phone
calls, food, donations and support you have
given to us since the passing of our son,
Jordan McKinnon.
Our journey of firsts without
Jordan has just begun.
Please feel free to phone or
say hi when you see us and
to keep the I Remember When
Jordan cards coming! You
hold a special place in our hearts.
Sincerely,
Wayne, Allison, Lachie
& Kyle McKinnon
