maximum of $250,000 to support program-
ming and to fund the purchase of remov-
able boards, a storage facility and netting.
Administration approached council on
Dec. 19 for a decision in regards to facility
programming – specifically the proposed
removable boards. In an attempt to include
most user groups and provide versatility,
council had been presented with various
Midget A Storm prepare options including removable traditional
to host provincials hockey boards that could be removed for
sports such as soccer.
“We (presented) council with the eco-
nomic reality of operating a facility and
the economic reality is we need to have
programmability to utilize the multimillion
dollar purchase of a facility to be most ef-
fective, and to try and work with all of the
users to be able to program that facility
to its maximum potential,” said Trent West,
manager of protective services.
Council previously supported the instal-
lation of sport flooring on the facility’s large

provincials in
Strathmore in 2019
RYAN MITZNER
Strathmore U14A Gold Ice Reporter

The Strathmore Minor Hockey Association (SMHA)


will host the 2019 midget A provincials March 21-24.
The SMHA is looking forward to welcoming the
high-end hockey and noted the potential benefits to
the town.
“It’s good for our town. Lots of families come from
all over Alberta,” said SMHA tournament committee
co-chair Kristen Langen-Bouche. “It’s busy for hotels,
it’s busy for restaurants and busy for the rink obvi-
ously.”
According to Langen-Bouche, the association sub-
mitted their bid to host and Hockey Alberta picked
Strathmore out of several potential communities.
Strathmore had previously hosted provincials in 2016.
Midget players range in age from 15 to 17.
