Where is the money coming from was the big
question council had during the Sept. 7 council
meeting when talk of a new $10 million reser-
voir project in the Wildfower Ranch area came
up.
This is the second year in a row administration
has requested tenders in regards to this project,
which will see the towns potable water storage
increase to approximately four days in case of
an emergency.
Currently with our storage that we have in
town, that does not represent two days of stor-
age. We do not currently have two days of stor-
age in town for potable water, said Jesse Parker,
director of engineering and operations for the
town.
We have the waterline from Calgary. The wa-
terline does provide at a great volume, and a
good rate for supply. In terms of storage in the
event of any kind of break or damage to the line,
the town currently only has less than two days
of storage, which gives us a very short time to
respond and correct the problem with the line.
He said it is no different than when the town
relied on the water treatment plant and could
only produce water at a certain volume, but the
idea is to get to more than the average at four
days of storage.
There were nine tenders submitted for the
project, and town staff and EPCOR staff re-
viewed them.
As a part of the review, tenders were required
to achieve a score of 75 per cent on experience,
their management plan and other pertinent
items. Only three tenders received 75 per cent
or higher, one of which is Associated Engineer-
ing, who scored 83 per cent.
Parker said he and staff are confdent the re-
view resulted in a well-qualifed candidate. Be-
cause its an underground system the need to
fnd a company with a good reputation and
previous experience with a project of this scope
was imperative, which is why the review panel
process was used.
The cost projected by Associated is for
$898,158 that is for the design element, project
management and post construction. The total
scope of the entire project, including construc-
tion, has the town scrambling to fnd approxi-
mately $10 million.
Were committing fnancial suicide here. (Its
like) jumping off the cliff and then putting the
parachute on, its wrong, said Mayor Steve Gra-
jczyk.

Thanks to a generous donation from
a local developer and businessman, the
Strathmore Fire Department, SFD, is
now equipped as one of the top water
search and recovery teams in the area.
Ken Struss, who is with Cancorp and
an owner of the Wildfower Ranch de-
velopment, spent some time on the
boat with SFD members recently and
saw a way he could help them.
What I said was, I would donate
$10,000 and use it for equipment for
the fre hall, said Struss.
They had a couple of emergencies
lately and they were lacking some
equipment, so I inquired about what
some of the equipment was. Its a sonar
system and a radio system because the
boat is so loud you cant communicate.
There were 10 calls last year to SFD
for a water rescue and/or recovery, and
members of the department say they
are already over 10 this year.
With the addition of this equipment
the SFD will be one of the front line
crews in the area. Most of the sur-
rounding fre departments, if not all,
do not have side sonar capabilities as
far as they know.
Its super advantageous because, at
present, most of the radio reception
drops out at the river, said Ryan Par-
kins, with the SFD.
With this new system not only will
it be noise cancelling so we can hear
other guys on the intercom, but well
actually be able to communicate with
any dispatch thats talking to us at the
time, whether itll be Calgary or Strath-
more. It will help us coordinate efforts
better and therefore make our work
more effcient and safe.
With the new sonar equipment the
SFD will have a better chance of hav-
ing more rescues than recoveries. SFD
frefghter and president of the Strath-
more Fire Fighters Association, Jamie
LaChance, said it was like having no
eyes and looking in the dark, to sud-
denly having a spotlight on everything.
Before what we had was just a sys-
tem that allowed us to see just the bot-
tom, directly what was underneath the
boat out to maybe fve feet on either
side of the boat, said LaChance.
The side sonar now creates an im-
age almost 180 degrees to the boat and
150 feet of the centre each side, so your
scope of view is massive, it just became
tremendous.
Calgary, Brooks and now Strathmore
are the only three communities in the
area which have the side sonar equip-
ment.

Westmount fundraising efforts easy on everyone
Shannon LeCLair
Times Reporter
Fundraising can be a tough and te-
dious task, and there is always the con-
cern not enough people will say yes to
help. Westmount Elementary School, in
collaboration with Sobeys, has found an
easy way to fundraise by offering some-
thing everyone needs, groceries.
We approached Neil (Kennedy) just
to see if there was some kind of a fund-
raising thing we could do with Sobeys.
He broached the idea of this grocery
Ken Struss, left, gave the Strathmore Fire Depart-
ment a cheque for $10,000 to buy new equipment

card program with us, said Wayne
Funk, principal of Westmount. Neils
going above and beyond for the amount
of work that hes doing with us and its
just a phenomenal fundraiser for us, re-
ally easy and great partnership for us
and Sobeys and its lucrative for us, it
works well.
Families can sign up for a predeter-
mined amount of groceries a month,
for example $400 a month and they can
pick up the gift card at the store at the
start of the month. The families pay the
school directly for it, and Sobeys gives
the school a 10 per cent discount. If a
family were to buy a gift card for $500 a
month for 12 months, they would raise
$600 just by buying groceries, with no
negative cost to them.
Its a program we will offer to any
non proft group, so its not something
thats just exclusive to Westmount. They
are the only group in town that has ever
participated in it, and I guess I got in-
volved mostly because thats where my
children go, said Neil Kennedy, owner
of Strathmore Sobeys.
By the time all of his children are
done school he will have had one at
Westmount for 19 years, which he said
is why he thinks he pushed a little hard-
er with them.
We tell parents, if you spend $800 a
month on groceries, well dont buy an
$800 card, buy a $400 card so you have
some fexibility. If you know youre go-
ing spend at least that minimum $400 to
$500 its an easy way to fund your chil-
drens school, or group, said Kennedy.
The cards dont expire and can be
used at any Sobeys in Western Canada.
At Westmount it is school council orien-
tated, and Funk said everything is run-
ning smoothly with it now. Last year the
school managed to raise over $11,000
using the program, and eliminating the
need for other fundraising initiatives.
For the most part its a really slick
system now, it works really nicely. Peo-
ple are buying their groceries locally
and helping to support the school at the
same time. Its a win-win no brainer,
said Funk.
If we can fundraise through this
Sobeys plan $13,000, then the school
council feels they have no other need
to fundraise.
Most people sign up for nine months,
which is the school year, or can do a
12-month commitment as well. Funk
himself uses the card and said every
month a portion of the money he spends
on groceries comes back to the school.
They are open to people who arent
Westmount parents as well. If there are
grandparents or anybody who buys
their groceries at Sobeys and wants to
chip in they can stop in before the 18,
said Funk.
The fnal day to get an order in for
the cards and to help the school is
Sept. 18, though anything that comes
in the morning of the 19, will still be
accepted.

MP Kevin Sorenson made
an announcement on Sept.
9 that Strathmore has been
approved for a low-cost in-
frastructure loan. Sorenson,
on behalf of the Honour-
able Diane Finley, Minister
of Human Resources and
Skills Development and Min-
ister Responsible, made the
announcement for Canada
Mortgage and Housing Cor-
poration, CMHC.
Drinking water is an es-
sential service that people
depend upon and communi-
ties are faced with a constant
struggle to keep up with
growth and maintenance
pressures within limited f-
nancial resources, said May-
or Steve Grajczyk.
The loan, which totals just
over $4 million, is a low cost
loan from CMHCs Municipal
Infrastructure Lending Pro-
gram, MILP. Chief Adminis-
trative Offcer for the town
Dwight Stanford said the
town is borrowing at fve per
cent below administration
costs. Though the announce-
ment took place on Sept. 9,
the funds have already been
used to upgrade the water
supply system, including the
construction of the water
pipeline from Calgary.
We were pleased to re-
ceive funding through the
Municipal Infrastructure
Lending Program from Can-
ada and Mortgage Housing
Corporation for just over
$4.1 million, said Grajczyk.
With 13,000 residents
and a forecast for continued
growth, the new waterline
will support the anticipated
growth and Strathmores
continued goal to be a truly
sustainable community.
Our government under-
stands the importance of in-
frastructure in maintaining
strong and prosperous com-
munities, said Sorenson.
This program opened the
door here in Strathmore and
in municipalities across Can-
ada to meet their housing-
related infrastructure needs.
Canadas Economic Action
Plan will continue to create
jobs and stimulate the local
economy here in Alberta, and
in all corners of the country.
Canadas Economic Action
Plan has provided $2 billion
over two years in direct low-
cost loans to municipalities.
The loans were available to
all municipalities in Canada,
and were a way to provide a
new source of funds to invest
in housing-related infrastruc-
ture projects. Project eligible
for the low cost loans in-
cluded infrastructure related
to housing services, such as
water, power generation and
waste services. It also includ-
ed transportation infrastruc-
ture, within and into resi-
dential areas, such as roads,
sidewalks, lighting, fre halls
and residential green spaces.

Grajczyk said if the town were to borrow $10 million it will
put Strathmore approximately 108 per cent in debt, some-
thing he said the town couldnt afford either.
Personally I feel that the risk we have currently assumed
is high. The storage that we have in town, I dont feel is suf-
fcient. As the town continues to grow we are only assuming
additional risk in my opinion, said Parker.
The more homes that come onto the line, the higher the
demand is and the less storage there will be available. Parker
said they have assumed a signifcant amount of risk already
by allowing the current reservoir to fall below the capacity of
two days of storage in the event of an emergency.
If the break were to happen in Calgary the town would
have four days worth of water in the line. The time frame
would shrink the closer the break in the line is to Strathmore
I realize were looking at a lot of money here, but a lot of
people in Strathmore are not 100 per cent happy relying on a
pipelineout of Calgary to feed us the water. If we dont have
a backup system in place here, if we cant get some more stor-
age in place here, then I dont know said Councillor Rocky
Blokland.
Blokland also questioned if there was a large fre, if the town
has the water capacity to put it out. Parker said they would be
able to with the current source. However, there would likely
be watering restrictions imposed in peoples homes.
Chief Administrative Offcer for the town, Dwight Stanford,
also stated that previous fre chiefs have said if the storage
were to run out, they would be able to pump water out of
Kinsmen Lake.
Stanford said fnancially the town is okay on the design side
of things, but as for the construction the fnances havent been
worked out, something the town accountant is working on.
There has already been money budgeted into the 2011 bud-
get for the design phase of this project.
Parker said its not that the system is going to fail right
away, but its a matter of how much risk are they willing to
take. There is the possibility that if things take too long to get
started the town may have to put a moratorium on the con-
struction of the new homes.
Off-site levies will fund the project, the design as well as
construction. We do not currently have a water reserve suf-
fcient to fund the project, said Parker.
Still, the question of how to get the money and the risks
involved remained the sore spot of the discussion. After
lengthy debate council agreed to award the Wildfower reser-
voir engineering services contract to Associated Engineering
with a condition that construction may be potentially delayed
for a maximum of two years, for an amount not exceeding
$898,158. Whether Associated Engineering will accept the
contract remains to be seen.

loan as a part of Canadas economic Action Plan. Kevin Sorenson, left,

Fall
Facts
Trees take water from
the ground through their
roots & take carbon
dioxide from the air. They
also use the energy from
sunlight to produce sugar,
which together is called
photosynthesis.
Because of the wide
variety of trees, Eastern
Canada is one of the best
places in the world for
viewing fall colors.
Bright red & purple
colors come from
anthocyanin (an-thuh-si-
uh-nuhn) pigments, like in
maple leaves, are formed
from trapped glucose.
Brown colors come from
a waste product called
tannin, orange colors
comes from carotene
(kar-uh-teen) & the
yellows from xanthophyll
(zan-thuh-fl)
The leave colors red,
yellow & brown are in the
leaves all year long & only
become exposed when
the green chlorophyll
disappears in the fall.
Mulching fall leaves
where they fall lets them
decompose so that they
can release their minerals
back to the underlying soil.
Maples, Oaks, Elms,
Birch & Ash trees are just
a few of the trees that give
spectacular colors during
the autumn season.
Fall colors are best
when late summer is dry &
autumn has bright sunny
days & cool nights below
5 C.
Fall days become
shorter & many plants stop
making food. That is when
the green chlorophyll
starts to disappear from
the leaves.
Most leaves fall from
trees because the ends
of the branch are sealed
off near the leaf stem to
protect the tree through
the long winter months.
Composting fall leaves
is an excellent way to
improve yard & garden
soils. Mixing green &
brown materials together
is the basic rule.
An acre of trees can
grow 4,000 pounds of
wood in a year, using 5,880
pounds of carbon dioxide
& giving off 4,280 pounds
of oxygen in the process.

Dinner and fun
Letters to the editor

Splash park, no two words can bring more summer
time happiness or more hours of entertainment for
my toddler and myself. With the beautiful weather we
had this summer my daughter and I visited the splash
park on an almost daily basis. But with August 31 fast
approaching we knew our fun times were soon com-
ing to an end. When I noticed the park still splashing
during the frst week of very hot September I was
thrilled, what more could we ask for. We just wanted
to say thank you to the wonderful Town of Strathmore
for extending the days, it is appreciated by many!

Holy Cross Collegiates annual County Fair steak and lobster dinner was once again
a success. There was volleyball and hockey for the kids to play, and the band kept
the crowd entertained throughout their meal.

Canadian farmers feed the world, and they deserve
the freedom to make their own business decisions. As
I have said from the start, no expensive survey can
obstruct Western Canadian grain farmers from having
the same rights as farmers in other parts of Canada
and around the world.
This week, the CWB will announce the results of
their expensive survey. The Board will say the results
give legitimacy to their travelling road show, fear
mongering and defeatist approach. The Board will
insist that only a percentage, namely the percentage
that supports them, have the right to choose how ev-
eryone markets their grain. Mr. Oberg will say that
without a monopoly to control farmers, the grain
industry will shrivel up and cease to exist. Farmers
know better.
Farmers know that both the ballot question and dis-
tribution list were seriously fawed. The CWB refuses
to recognize that every farmer, regardless of whether
they support the monopoly or not, should be able
to choose how they market their grain. The Board
will fail to remember that even their own survey this
spring said that when given the choice between a sin-
gle desk, dual market, and open market, 58 per cent
chose either a dual market or an open market.
Our Governments top priority is the economy in
which the agriculture industry plays a vital role. We
know that an open market will attract investment, in-
novation and value-added jobs. Farmers can be conf-
dent that our Government will continue to work with
the entire value chain to ensure a smooth transition to
Western Canadian grain marketing freedom.!

Agriculture Minister

The fne citizens of Strathmore will be invited to
participate in public information sessions sponsored
by the Town of Strathmore in the near future to dis-
cuss the pros and cons of Strathmore changing its
status from a town to a city.
The writing is on the wall that Strathmore will be-
come a city regardless of the opinions of the popu-
lous. Do you all remember that there was a plebiscite
on weather or not to build the swimming pool? Sixty
plus per cent said no to building the swimming pool
and we got it anyway.
Plebiscites are not legally binding and an obvious
waste of money considering the previous effects. If
we become a city we will become fnancially respon-
sible for the maintenance and up keep of both the
Trans Canada Highway and 817 throughout the
current town boundaries. Snow removal, repairs and
much more.
If anyone says anything different you need to see
it in writing. The City of Calgary is responsible for
16th Ave which is The Trans Canada Highway, so
why would we be any different? We wouldnt be. This
is clearly again an underlying issue that is being fos-
tered by the Town Management.
Who actually benefts other than continually in-
creasing the size of the town staff? With more staff
being hired the current town offce is breaking at
the seems.
A new city offce has been rumoured to be pro-
posed for future construction at the recent property
acquisition near Kinsmen Park down town. Who pays
for all of this? We do the tax payer. Who is held re-
sponsible?
Every three years we hold a Municipal Election
holding the council and mayor to task. Should we not
look deeper and possibly hire new management with
clearer vision of our collective futures in mind?
We are all in this together.

Parliamentary Report
By the time you read this I will be
in Ottawa attending the Conserva-
tive Party of Canadas Annual Nation-
al Caucus Retreat. All Conservative
Members of Parliament, including the
Prime Minister and Cabinet Ministers
will meet to make fnal preparations
for the Autumn Session of Parliament.
Based on the policies we campaigned
on in the May 2011 election, we have a
full mandate to implement.
Our focus remains on the perfor-
mance of the economy as we carefully
nurture Canadas fragile recovery from
the effects of the global economic
downturn. Too many nations in the
world continue to suffer under mas-
sive debt loads and budgetary defcits
that restrict what they can accomplish
in the near and long term.
Over the past few years, even in the
two previous minority Parliaments,
our Conservative government has
managed to successfully confront the
recession; maintain the integrity of our
fnancial and banking systems; move
forward with trade opportunities;
help create the conditions to provide
jobs for Canadians; realize economic
growth; and provide a strong stable
federal government, among many oth-
er things.
The Opposition parties have not
fared so well. The Bloc Quebecois has
been virtually eliminated; the Liberals
have registered a worst-ever perfor-
mance; and the NDP for all its suc-
cess in 2011 has been devastated by
the loss of its leader.
Since 2006, our Conservative gov-
ernment has proceeded to bring the
policy changes Canadian voters have
supported at the ballot box despite
the trials and tribulations fowing from
the Opposition. In the current majority
Parliamentary situation, we hope that
the Opposition will work with us to
provide the best policy decisions on

Gary McPherson Leadership Award and
the Awards of Excellence. The Gary
McPherson Leadership Award is pre-
sented to individual Albertans who have
demonstrated outstanding leadership or
achievement in enhancing or enriching
the lives of people with disabilities.
The Awards of Excellence recognize
individuals, teams or organizations that
are committed to the full inclusion of
persons with disabilities in four catego-
ries: education, employment, communi-
ty and public awareness.
The nomination deadline is Sept. 30
and award recipients will be honoured
in their communities, often as part of the

sons with Disabilities celebrations that
are held across Alberta in December.

the programs and services that our
federal government provides for Ca-
nadians. While we were elected to
pursue our specifc political agenda,
we want the procedures and process-
es of Canadas national legislature to
operate as they should so that fair
and constructive debate leads to the
best policy decisions fle by fle.
The 41st Parliament has already
established itself as a time of change
in the political landscape of Canada.
I am confdent that this will remain
true as we proceed.
In the lead-up to the Autumn Sit-
ting of Parliament, the Opposition
parties know that MPs in Conser-
vative National Caucus will: end
the costly and ineffective long-gun
registry; provide the same market
freedoms for Western farmers as the
ones already enjoyed by Central and
Eastern farmers; continue to refur-
bish, upgrade, and expand Canadas
long neglected penal institutions;
continue to provide our Armed Forc-
es personnel with the equipment
they need to safely do their jobs;
stand up against the criminal ele-
ment in our country; help Canadian
Seniors, workers and families; and
ensure that Canada retains its posi-
tion in the international community
as a beacon of hope to many nations
facing diffcult social, political and
economic challenges.
In our centuries old Westminster
Parliamentary tradition, the time for
political polarization is during elec-
tions. Once the ballots have been
counted, the democratically elected
representatives of the people are
expected to accomplish the work of
implementing the decisions reached
on Election Day. In the 41st Parlia-
ment, we have a fresh opportunity
for all Members of Parliament to
work together on the foor of the
House of Commons Chamber and in
the Standing Committees.

While the entire world
was focused on William
and Kate this summer,
Rosebud actors were con-
centrating on perfecting
this falls performance of
their own royally funny
couple Prince Edward and
Millicent Milroy, the young
lady who captured his heart
before Wallace Simpson.
Rosebud Dinner Theatres
latest show Queen Milli of
Galt is a true love story of
Royalty meets hometown
girl.
When the handsome,
young Prince Edward visits
Galt, Ontario in the autumn
of 1919 everyone wants to
see him - everyone that is
except Millicent Milroy.
Milli would rather work in
her garden than join the
throngs hoping to catch
even a glimpse of the king-
to-be. An escape from his
relentless schedule leads
Edward down Millis gar-
den path. When the two
meet, what begins as mu-
tual disdain for each other
gradually evolves into an
extraordinary romance that
leads to the crowning of
Queen Milli of Galt.
Executive Director Mor-
ris Ertman comments, It
is amazing to me that we
Canadians have our very
own Wallace Simpson sto-
ry in Milli Milroy of Galt,
Ontario. The fact that The
Kings Speech introduced
us to a heart-forward, if
tragic Edward VIII who
chooses Wallace Simpson
over the throne. It is fol-
lowed closely by more of
his story on our Rosebud
Theatre stage that creates
another interesting chapter
of Royal intrigue for Royal-
story-hungry Canadians.
Edward, played by Karl
Sine, and Milli, played by
Heather Zacharias, were
two very vibrant characters
in this production. Sine and
Zacharias have been on
stage together before and
have an amazing chemistry
with one another, as well
as with the other seasoned
characters in this produc-
tion, including Alysa van-
Haastert as Mona Single-
ton, Steve Waldschmidt as
Godfrey, local favourite
Marie Russell as Mrs. Mil-
roy and Emma Cobb as the
journalist.
Zacharias, who was born
in Galt before its name was
changed to Cambridge,
has had a busy summer
on Rosebuds Studio Stage
playing Eve in The Diary of
Adam and Eve. She is over-
joyed to be appearing at
the Opera House this fall.
I frst heard about Queen
Mills story when I worked
for the Cambridge Histori-
cal Society. Its a Cambridge
urban myth. No one knows
all the facts about her life,
but I think the way the play
frames her story is beauti-
ful, and funny. I laughed
out loud when I read the
script for the frst time. I
love Milli. Shes feisty and
wont take any guff from
anyone. Shes a real human
being, who gives the prince
a run for his money, which
I think is great.
Executive Director Morris
Ertman comments, This is
one of the best plays Ive
worked on in a long time.
It comes off the page like
an entertainment rocket
and then lands something
on your heart that just
doesnt go away. Its the
must-see of the season for
those who want to leave
the theatre feeling like ev-
ery part of their entertain-
ment hunger has been sati-
ated. I love this play, and I
think audiences will too!

tion on this seasons per-

Preserving Our Lifeline
C. LaCombe
Bow River Basin Council
A watershed is a place that people, critters,
plants and businesses, all share and are interlinked
and interconnected, says David Hill, Program Di-
rector, AWRI.
I think its one of the great interests that we share
but we dont often think about.
One of the aspects David feels we dont often
think about is that water always fows downhill.
He recounts watching water suddenly appear in
his yard as snowmelt caused his sump pump to
engage. He followed the waters path as it made
its way to the curb and gutter to begin its journey
back to the North Saskatchewan River.
Thank goodness gravity works and water does
fow downhill. It doesnt matter where it lands, its
going down. So whatever we do in one way or
another is going to impact somebody who lives
downstream of us.
David says that once we have awareness that we
live in a watershed and our actions impact every-
one in the watershed, we can begin to think dif-
ferently about various activities on the landscape.
Maybe we can have a conversation about what
our interests are, the values that we share and then,
we can make individual decisions that are in our
collective interests. David talks about how water
ignores political boundaries and yet is political.
Theres this nice place in the Columbia Ice
Fields called the snow dome and its actually what
they refer to as a triple hydrographic apex. And a
drop of water that lands on the Snow Dome will
either end up in the Pacifc, the Arctic or Hudson
Bay. Most of Albertas precipitation travels to Hud-
son Bay, Gulf of Mexico or the Arctic.
He contends that water can be a source of demo-
cratic cooperation or a cause for hostility. With wa-
tersheds connecting municipalities, provinces and
countries, it offers a natural shared interest.
I think fnding that shared interest is very im-
portant, he says adding that it could teach us how
we can meet individual and collective needs in
peaceful, cooperative ways.
In Albertas case, the Water For Life Strategy sets
the tone. Albertas water strategy recognizes the
need for people to come together around water
issues. It recognizes the need for people to be en-
gaged, he says. He points out that passionate emo-
tions and political positions show up quite quickly
in all discussions about water. That fact makes the
discussions interesting, but also unruly at times
and ineffective. Albertans needed a way to come
together around water issues and get some forward
momentum. He says they got it in the Strategy.
Water for Life at its heart talks about engaging
the public in fguring out ways to do more with
what we have and at the same time to do it more
sustainable.
Hill asserts that with the right tools and opportu-
nities, people can solve any issue. The amount of
creativity that people can bring to an issue is really
quite surprising, Hill says.

Moving on to new things
Shannon LeCLair
Times Reporter
After eight years working with, and
promoting Rosebud, executive director
Bob Davis has decided to resign from
his role. Davis is taking on a new role in
tourism development with the Canadian
Badlands Limited.
There was an opportunity to work
on a wider regional basis, which inter-
ested me and I feel like a number of key
challenges at Rosebud have been ac-
complished, most notably the Rosebud
Mercantile, said Davis.
With those accomplishments now
done Im looking for some new chal-
lenges for myself and also to pass the
torch to someone else at Rosebud to
take Rosebud forward into its next
chapter of development.
Davis plans to continue with his role
of executive director until the end of Oc-
tober. The Rosebud Centre of the Arts is
still searching for a replacement.
Im hoping to continue much of the
work thats been gone on so far and to
help communities initiate new projects
or strategies to continue to make the
Badlands a great place to visit, said Da-
vis about working with the Badlands.
One big accomplishment that stands
out in Davis mind was when Rosebud
celebrated the theatres 25 anniversary
in 2008. He said the production of Fid-
dler on the Roof that summer highlight-
ed an entire years worth of celebration.
Another thing that stands out for him
is the development of a really great
group of people. He said they have a
really strong staff that has grown over
the years.
He is proud and happy to say the staff
is energetic and visionary and seems to
have a collective will to make rosebud
the best it can be .

Did You Know?
the moon makes 1 rotation and completes a revolution
around the Earth every 27 days, 7 hours and 43 minutes?
Shannon LeCLair
Times Reporter
Walking around with a liquor bottle in
a brown paper bag and cursing is just
one of the traits people love about the
Trailer Park Boys Mr. Lahey. On Sept.
22 Lahey will be joined by his longtime
companion Randy in entertaining pa-
trons at Wild Fire Saloon in Langdon.
We really want to be a part of the com-
munity and we like bringing something
unique, and fun, and cool, said Cal Lloyd,
who owns the Saloon with his wife.
Something different, something that
you would actually see in Calgary that is
out in our little small town.
Ticket buyers will get a 90-minute
show, a buffet dinner - trailer park style
- featuring Kraft Dinner. Everyone will
also have an opportunity to get an indi-
vidual photo with the boys and an au-
tograph.
Its a smoking deal because some-
thing like this would probably go for a
minimum of $69 and up in the city, but
were not trying to gouge everybody.
Were just trying to provide a service
thats in a fun, cool, unique atmosphere
for everyone, said Lloyd.
I think its going to be a very unique
experience for people to get up close
and personal in an intimate setting with
the Trailer Park Boys.
Tickets are selling for $24.95 a single
ticket, and $39.95 for a couple. Lloyd
said they are selling fast, and with capac-
ity for only 170 people, he recommends
hurrying to the saloon to get tickets be-
fore they sell out.
The doors open at 5:30 p.m. on the
22 and the show starts at 8 p.m. Its not
reserved seating, and is instead a frst
come, frst serve basis. If everything
runs as well as he is hoping, then Lloyd
said he would consider bringing the
boys back in the future.
If time permits and the demand is
there, then yeah, absolutely wed be
looking at doing a second show, said
Lloyd.
Our intentions are, over the next
handful of months, we want to do some-
thing on this caliber on a monthly basis.
The saloon has recently changed man-
agement and Lloyd and his wife have
decided they want to add a little bit of
fun into the place. Keep an eye on Wild
Fire Saloon to see who they may bring
in next.

If the frst two exhibition games are
any indication, the Wheatland Kings
should have no trouble putting the puck
in the net.
The local Junior B hockey team scored
14 goals in two preseason home games
over the weekend, defeating Three Hills
7-3 on Sept. 10, before posting a 7-7 tie
with the Okotoks Bisons the following
day.
It is nice to get the offensive out-
put, said Kings head coach and general
manager Doug Murphy. It is also really
good to see the character of the guys
to come back (in both) games. Theyd
score and wed come back and answer.
That is really good.
Theres a lot of real good things out
there lots of speed, lots of offence.
According to Murphy, the team will
use the next three exhibition games to
prepare for the season opener in two
Showing their offensive punch
weeks time.
Obviously the offence is in mid-sea-
son mode, but the defense needs some
work, said the coach.
We need better defensive zone cover-
age, laughed the coach. We need better
positional play. (Netminder) Richie Hub-
bell has been stunning with some of the
stops hes made, so its certainly not an
issue of goaltending. For coming out of
camp and having one practice and jump-
ing into two exhibition games, its going
to be a little ragged. Thats the problem
with wide-open hockey for a couple of
weeks. Everyone thinks theyre playing
pond hockey again.
We need to get back to good, struc-
tured hockey.
The Kings have tried something a little
different for this years exhibition games.
Instead of carrying 28-30 players during
the preseason, they are much closer to
their regular season lineup.
We wanted to get down to our num-
bers much quicker, said Murphy. We
have some more guys coming (from oth-
er camps), so with each step along the
way, you want to make sure you (dont
have a lot of) guys sitting out of games.
If you look at Okotoks, there are
12 guys in the stands. We prefer to cut
down sooner and be looking at one or
two guys instead of 10.
While the Kings roster is nearly com-
plete, the team is looking for help in the
front offce for the upcoming season.
The Kings are looking for a trainer with
advanced frst aid certifcation, such as
an EMR or EMT.
They are also looking for a manager
for upcoming season. If you are inter-
ested in either position, please contact
Doug Murphy via e-mail at doug@mcps.

WPCA qualifcations held in Strathmore
The Strathmore Ag. Society rodeo grounds were the host to the WPCA Qualifcation Run-off this
past weekend. The event began Sept. 8 to 11, and was to held to pick the top fve to move onto
the 2012 WPCA tour. Gary Gorst ranked frst, Logan Gorst came in second, Roger moore and
Dave Galloway tied for third and fourth and Jason Johnstone took ffth place.

The Wheatland Kings
opened their exhibition
schedule with a pair of
home games Sept. 10-
11 at the Strathmore
Family Centre. The Ju-
nior B team defeated
Three Hills 7-3 before
settling for a 7-7 tie
with Okotoks the fol-
lowing day.

While they may not have walked away champi-
ons, the peewee Spartans football team still felt
pretty good knowing they got to play at McMahon
Stadium this past weekend. On Sept. 10 the team
faced off against Innisfail on the pro feld, some-
thing that was a treat for each and every player.
I played it (McMahon feld) in atom (football)
with coach Doug. Its pretty cool, said running
back Ethan Monaghan.
I really wanted to play football since my dad
played in it and its really fun. He played when he
was young to old and he said it was really fun.
Monaghan, 12, has been playing for the past
four years, and is considered one of the top play-
ers on the team.
For the kids themselves it was a nice experi-
ence, they really enjoyed themselves and blowing
out like they did they still had a good time playing
there, said head coach Doug Klauck.
We came up against a team that was much big-
ger, and they were prepared. It was a little hard to
swallow when we walked out there and saw how
big those kids were.
Though the scoreboard didnt refect what they
were hoping to achieve, the game did give the
coaches and the team ideas of what to work on
before the next game.
It was a good test for us because we got to play
against another team fnally and we got to know
what adjustments we need to make in practice this
week to prepare for Saturday. We have to toughen
up our defense and work on our offensive line,
said Klauck.
The peewee Spartans will be a part of the dou-
bleheader happening at Strathmore High Schools
feld on Sept. 17.

The UFA Bisons wrapped
up a week-long training camp
with their annual Red & White
games Sept. 11 at the Strath-
more Family Centre.
The local triple-A midget
team carried 45 players going
into the game, where the Red
Team won 3-0, before trimming
the roster to nearly 30 players.
I think we saw a lot we
were looking for some sepa-
ration from some guys and I
think weve defnitely saw that,
said Bisons head coach Jeremy
Friesen. We were looking for
some certain type of players
and we saw that.
I think were going to have
some speed, some good size up
front and our backend is mo-
bile and quick.
Weve got some really tough
decisions to make in all the po-
sitions.
According to Friesen, the
coaching staff was looking for
players who have improved
during the course of the train-
ing camp. As the pace picked
up, some players level of play
stayed the same, while some of
the players elevated their game.
Friesen said that the Red &
White game was a real eye-
opener.
A low-scoring (Red & White)
game isnt a bad thing, said
the coach. The thing is there
were quite a few penalties with
the new headshot rule coming
into effect we saw that frst
hand today.
Its a chemistry thing too,
when guys arent used to play-
ing with each other, the offen-
sive opportunities arent quite
there. (However) defensively, I
think thats what you have suc-
cess with, so that is the most
important thing. We start from
there and the offence comes
second.
The Bisons are now gearing
up to host their annual exhi-
bition tournament this com-
ing weekend at the Strathmore
Family Centre.
The locals will host Red Deer
Sept. 15 (6:30 p.m.), the Calgary
Northstars Sept. 16 (5:30 p.m.)
and the Calgary Buffaloes Sept.
17 (11:45 a.m.). The four-team
playoffs will begin on Saturday
night (4 p.m. & 6:45 p.m.), be-
fore the fnal games on Sunday
morning (9 a.m. & 11:45 a.m.).
By (the time the tournament
starts), weve seen these guys
for a couple of weeks now. You
start to get to know them a little
bit and you have more conver-
sations with them, said Fries-
en. Throughout next weekend,
you get to spend some more
one-on-one time with them and
really challenge them on areas
that they need to improve on
and showcase themselves.
It comes down to work
ethic and attention to detail.
Its more or less, at the end of
the day, a progression as well.
If youre taking one guy com-
pared to the next, you wanna
see where theyll be come
playoff time.
Bisons inch closer to starting roster
The UFA Bisons hosted
their annual Red & White
Game on Sept. 12 at the
Strathmore Family Cen-
tre. The team is now pre-
paring for their exhibition
home tournament Sept.

The Bantam Girls A team were out last
Saturday preparing themselves for their frst
game against an A league team. They
will be playing a double header exhibition
game against a Calgary Bantam GASP A
team next weekend in Strathmore. So far
their are 16 girls trying out for the team, and
only 12 spots to be had. They will be doing
team indoor tryouts beginning in Feburary.
Coach Lanky Johnson has high hopes for
these girls. The goal for this team is to
try and qualify for Western Canadian Finals
or Nationals Finals. In order to do that you
must fnish in top 4-5 teams at provincials
in Alberta. We will have a young team but
with the leadership of our returning players
from this years bantam provincial B gold
medal team (Strathmore Thunder) I think we
can feld a very nice team. We may have an
opportunity to host the Western Canadian
Finals but we do require local support and
sponsorship for that.

of individual school supplies, cash donations or two Kitz which were made up of an
assortment of pre-selected school. Supplies. All told, Value Drug Mart Stores collected
and distributed cash donations, individual school supplies and over 3,000 kitz during the

The Strathmore Spartans senior
football team played their frst game
of the season in Drumheller Satur-
day afternoon, Sept. 10. Although
they couldnt come home with a win,
there were many positives to take
away from the loss.
The passing game was working
for us, and for the frst game of the
year there were very few penalties,
said head coach Carl Seafoot. Right
from the start of the game, Strath-
mores defense did a great job con-
taining the complex offence of the
Drumheller team, something Strath-
mores defensive coach has been fo-
cusing on since mid-August, when
the team started practice.
It took a while for the offence to
get started after being stopped on
the second yard line. The team did
a good job rebounding with the frst
touchdown pass of the season from
quarterback Cory Campbell to wide
receiver James Giancola at the end
of the frst half. The Drumheller of-
fence scored two quick touch downs
midway through the second half and
controlled the clock to pick up a 34-
10 victory. We played well in the
second half, aside from a couple of
big plays they broke open. Our de-
fense did a great job stopping the of-
fense from moving the ball down the
feld, said Seafoot.
This week in local fooTball
The senior Spartans played an ex-
hibition game against the Brooks
Buffalos on Tuesday, Sept. 13. Re-
sults were not available as of press
time.
Also coming up this week, both

will be playing a double header at
home this Saturday, starting at 11:30
a.m. The peewee team will start the
day with a game against the Stettler
