The library’s an-nual Summer Reading Program’s theme this year is Drumheller’s coal mining past, to coincide with the Mining Centennial. It runs from July 5 until August 18 and parents are asked to preregister their kids at the library.

Elim Pentecostal Church’s $100,000 purchase of Central School from Golden Hills School Division was approved by the di-vision on Tuesday afternoon, and the church hopes to receive the keys next week. “We’re stoked for it, it’s been a lot of work to get to the place

we’re at now,” says Elim Pente-costal’s pastor Daniel Dannhau-er, adding they still have legal hurdles to jump but says they are probably about three weeks away from offi cially controlling the va-cant school. He says now the church will be busy preparing for a grand open-ing planned for September long weekend. Along with leasing

out space in Central School, the church plans to open a daycare service, Christian bookstore, classroom, and meeting and gymnasium space. Dannhauer says there are a number of repairs needed on the building, included a leaky roof and two boilers in need of maintenance. “Some minor adjustments need to be made,” he said. Th e church is already starting to clean up the space. Bids for Central School, which sat vacant after renovations on the Drumheller Valley Secondary School were completed in Janu-ary, opened in May. After experiencing substan-cial growth in the last number of years, Elim Pentecostal Church says they have recognized a need for a larger facility.

Chucks rained out, April Wine will still performPatrick Kolafa | inSide Drumheller

Th e Richard Cosgrave Memo-rial Badlands Dinosaur Derby scheduled for this weekend has been offi cially postponed and so far, no future date has been set. On Wednesday morning, the World Professional Chuckwagon Association (WPCA) said that after inspecting the facility they could not run. “We have to look at all of the factors, as much as we hate to postpone a race we cannot in good conscience race in unsafe conditions,” explains WPCA President, Pat Powell. “We hope to return to Drumheller later in the season, they are a great sup-porter of us and we want to put on a world class show for their fans and sponsors.” According to Kelly Carson, op-erations manager for the WPCA, the heavy rain made the track unusable, and the parking on the site was very slippery. WPCA track inspectors Kelly Sutherland and Layne MacGillivray were on site Wednesday to assess the track and facility. Th ey deemed the conditions unsafe for com-petition. Th ey pulled the plug on the event at 11:30 a.m. Wednes-day. Carson acknowledges the hard work put into the track by the

Drumheller Stampede and Ag Society, but unfortunately there is not much they can do about the rain. According to a statement from the WPCA, “Th is decision is not made lightly by either group, but as with everything the WPCA and the Drumheller Stampede & Ag Society put the safety of the horses, drivers, and outrider fi rst. A favourite stop on the WPCA Dodge Pro Tour, the drivers and WPCA personnel hope to return later in the season.” Carson said the event is offi -cially postponed, although at this time the race has not been re-scheduled. He adds there may be room in the schedule for a new

date. Mike Hansen vice president of the Drumheller Stampede and Ag Society said the WPCA made the decision. He felt they might have been able to salvage the event. “We had gravel lined up for the road through Gallagher truck-ing so we could get them in,” said Hansen. “Coming out of the infi eld is where we have that big hole, and all we needed was a hoe so I could scoop it out and put dry fi ll in and put a cap on it so would be good.” Hansen adds that April Wine will still be performing at the Stampede Barn this Saturday night.

WPCA offi cials on Wednesday morning deemed the condition of the track at dinosaur Downs as unsafe for the drivers, outriders and horses to run the 2011 Richard Cosgrave Memorial Dinosaur Derby.

CorrectionThe Drumheller Mail

In the June 15 edition of Th e Drumheller Mail in Council Notes, the “Nacmine” Recre-ational Association was report-ed to have delegated to council. It was actually the Newcastle

Recreational Association who attended the meeting. We apologize for the misin-formation and the mistake to both the Nacmine Community Association, and the Newcas-tle Recreational Association and to both group’s members.

Tim Sather“It mars the City of

Vancouver. The Canucks can be proud of what the

Brandin Gwinner“The Canucks had a good run. Devon and I want to know who

After the streets of Vancouver erupted in violence following the

The Mail implements contingency plan in wake of postal lockout

Patrick Kolafa | inSide Drumheller

While the federal govern-ment ponders back to work legislation for postal workers locked out by Canada Post, the action caused minor dis-ruption, including in the dis-tribution of Th e Drumheller Mail. Wednesday morning postal workers found them-selves locked out, disrupt-ing delivery of the mail. Th e Drumheller Mail had its con-tingency plan in place and Wednesday morning had newspaper boxes placed at Riverside Value Drug Mart, Freson Bros IGA and Th e Drumheller Mail for sub-scribers to pick up their copy. Please disregard the labels on the newspaper as they were set to go in the mail before the lockout. Th e Drumheller Mail uses the postal service for its north run and according to Th e Mail’s driver, rural cus-tomers received their news-paper. Munson readers can pick up their paper at village offi ce. Th e Mail appreciates the patience of its loyal subscrib-ers and is working hard to make sure readers get the news they need. Th e Mail is also monitoring the situation and will keep readers apprised through www.drumhellermail.com, or by calling 403-823-2580.

Th e lockout also aff ects the delivery of inSide Drum-heller. Readers will be able pick up copies of the inSide at the red newspaper stands throughout the valley this week, and for the duration of the disruption.

A Drumheller couple has re-turned from charity work in a remote village in the mountains of Peru and say it was the expe-rience of a life time. Joanne Dumaine and her husband Ray were in Pamparo-mas, a hilltop village in the An-des at 9,000 feet altitude with a population of 500 people. Th ey were working with the St. James Church there, touching up fur-niture in school houses and preparing a small museum for the locals. Leaving on May 12, to Lima they then spent 12 hours on bus travelling to the village, up hill for the last leg of the journey. Th ey spent three weeks there. “One wrong move and you’re a goner,” says Joanne of the ride, driven by British Columbian Father David Johnson of the

church who has been working in Peru for 20 years. Joanne and Ray travelled with her brother and his wife. “It wasn’t easy. First, it was hard to get used to living in a small town like that and not having the conveniences of

home. Th at was the hardest part,” says Joanne. “But once we cleaned up our little living quarters it was quite fi ne.” She says the Andes were beautiful, “lush and green”, af-ter arriving there shortly after their rainy season. “It’s a very

interesting country, there is just such a variety of climates there.” Th e men worked with the school for a week, repairing desks and chairs for the kids and building shelves and stairs for the parish. Th e women cleaned, painted, varnished the small museum they were just starting there, containing arti-facts from the Peruvian days, says Joanne. “Th ere was nobody there to do repairs, it took about a week because everything was so bro-ken down and just old.” Th ey spent time sorting do-nated clothes as well. “It wasn’t a vacation at all, the only day we had to roam around was our last day in Lima before we came home,” says Joanne. Ray and Joanne, both in their early 60’s, had been thinking about a trip like this for a while, and when her brother called to see if they wanted to join them, she couldn’t turn down the “once in a lifetime opportunity.” “We wanted to do some mis-sion work for a long time, it was something that wouldn’t come up again soon.”

“Just to be able to be amongst people who were so apprecia-tive, and such a diff erent cul-ture, it was probably something we’ll never do again. It’s not the same as going on the mainland. When you go up to the Andes you get immersed in the real culture, the real Peru.” Th e main source of living for the locals is step farming: grains, corn, potatoes, carrots. Joanne even had a chance to try a Peruvian delicacy – guinea pigs. “It was something like rabbit, it’s like a dark meat,” she says. “Th ey always say it tastes like chicken, but it defi nitely tastes like rabbit. It’s got that wild taste to it.” Most people think of building houses when people are off on missionary work. All the hous-es there are built out of brick with mud and straw mortar in between. “As crude as they are, that’s what they are used to. Th ey are happy – probably hap-pier than people with million dollar homes in North Ameri-ca,” she said.

Summer Salads!Summer Salads!This salad sings of summertime and barbecue season! You can prep the ingredients ahead of time, relax and then spend 10 minutes at the barbecue right before it’s time to eat.

Grilled Romaine TossGrilled Romaine Toss¼ c. olive oil3 Tbsp. sugar1 tsp. dried rosemary1 tsp. dried thyme¼ tsp. salt¼ tsp. pepper8 plum tomatoes, quartered2 large sweet onions, sliced thin4 Romaine hearts

• Combine the fi rst 6 ingredients, then toss with the vegetables. Grill in a basket for about 10 minutes, until tender. Stir frequently.• Meanwhile, cut 4 Romaine hearts in half lengthwise and brush with oil, salt and pepper. Place cut sides down on grill and cook 3 mins each side until slightly charred and wilted.• Chop coarsely, then assemble on platter with tomato mixture on top.• Drizzle with dressing and sprinkle with parmesan cheese.

Dressing:Dressing:¼ c. olive oil¼ c. balsamic vinegar3 garlic cloves, minced2 Tbsp. brown sugarProcess until smooth • I mixed the marinade ingredients and placed in separate ziplocs – one with the onion and one with the tomato. I let them sit in the fridge for the afternoon, then grilled the onions a bit longer to begin with, so they would caramelize a bit. Then, I added the tomato for about 5 more minutes, as I didn’t want them too soft.• For a dressing, I used a bottled garlic balsamic - it was easy and delicious.

You might want to try this out with a Father’s Day barbecue – it would go well with beer can chicken and a nice potato salad!

Th roughout the summer of 2011, Rosebud Th eatre is hold-ing a Prairie Stories Contest in honour of W. O. Mitchell, the beloved Canadian author be-hind its summer production of Jake and the Kid: Prairie Sea-sons. Storytellers of all ages are invited to put pen to paper and submit their original, true sto-ries about growing up on the Canadian Prairies. Anyone can enter. Weekly prizes are available. Grand Prize winner will be announced August 27, 2011.

Participants are invited to write about a moment they have experienced, witnessed or heard about; something hu-morous, something touching, or perhaps something inspira-tional. Whatever the story, Rosebud Th eatre encourages contes-tants to write about the distinc-tive prairie events that remain engraved in their mind: the summer drought, the fall har-vest, the winter snowstorm, visits to the farm, lost pets and school talent shows. And let’s not forget about unique prairie characters: the wise, old farm

hand; the cranky next door neighbour; the offi cious school teacher; the larger-than-life weaver of tall tales and the lov-ing, resourceful mother. Rose-bud Th eatre wants your stories, so long as they are true and 1,000 words or less. Th e winner of weekly draws beginning June 25, will be awarded a W.O. Mitchell book or audio book. Th e winner of the Grand Prize for the best story, as chosen by the cast of Rosebud Th eatre’s production of Jake and the Kid: Prairie Seasons, will receive a set of W.O. Mitchell books and audio books. So, start writing today! Th e sooner you enter, the soon-er you may be a winner. In addition to these prizes, an audio recording of each win-ning story, read aloud by a Jake and the Kid: Prairie Seasons cast member will be posted on Rosebud Th eatre’s website. Th e fi rst draw date for the Prai-rie Stories Contest is June 25, 2011. Th e fi nal draw date will be August 27, 2011. Complete submission details and contest rules can be found at Rosebud Th eatre’s website at: www.rosebudtheatre.com. Stories can be submitted elec-tronically via www.rosebudthe-ater.com or by emailing them to [email protected]. Stories can also be submitted by mail or when you come to the Rosebud Th eatre summer productions of Jake and the Kid: Prairie Seasons or Adam & Eve.

Shoppers Drug Mart provides convenient, pleasant community service


ARIES - Mar 21/Apr 20Move over Aries because someone new wants to share the spotlight for a little while. You may be reticent to give up the spotlight, but even the sun has to retire for the night.

TAURUS - Apr 21/May 21Taurus, there's a fi nancial opportunity on the horizon and you just have to fi nd out how to get in on the action. Scorpio may be able to lend some information this week.

GEMINI - May 22/Jun 21Gemini, you'll have to make the most of a situation because there's nothing you can do this week to change the out-come. It may be a tough couple of days.

CANCER - Jun 22/Jul 22Cancer, take time to foster personal relationships, especially with a per-son you love dearly. There hasn't been much time for romance, but now you can change the situation for the better.

LEO - Jul 23/Aug 23There is a monster task in front of you, Leo, and all you need is to muster the strength to begin it. Some words of en-couragement from friends might do the trick.

VIRGO - Aug 24/Sept 22A completely fresh perspective can shed light onto something that has been giving you headaches, Virgo. Take the opportunity to reestablish goals, and you'll be on track.

LIBRA - Sept 23/Oct 23Libra, you don't have to prove yourself to anyone, so why are you always seek-ing someone else's approval? Try think-ing for yourself this week, and you may be surprised at the results.

SCORPIO - Oct 24/Nov 22Quiet contemplation can yield a few an-swers to the things you want to know, Scorpio. You often take for granted the silent moments that are offered.

SAGITTARIUS - Nov 23/Dec 21Sagittarius, not every hour of the day needs to be packed with activity. Others won't look to you as if you're slacking off if you take some time to relax.

CAPRICORN - Dec 22/Jan 20Obligations at home can take some time away from your "me" time, Capri-corn. But that is the price you pay for being such an integral part of your fam-ily dynamic.

AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18Aquarius, it takes you a little while to warm up to others, but once you do, you'll fi nd that you can be the best of friends and highly devoted. This week you prove this virtue.

PISCES - Feb 19/Mar 20Pisces, letting others do a lot for you may seem like a good idea at fi rst, but it might just lead to problems down the road.

The WeekenderinSide Drumheller

It’s 6:30 in the morning and the sun is just starting to stretch out over the horizon. Here you stand atop a cliff marveling at majestic hoodoos millions of years in the making, a glint of dew marbling off the brush nearby and the sound of native swallows echoing in the distance. Th e light seems to cascade through what was once a bustling river valley and in the distance you see a fox traipsing across this breathtaking tapestry. In the Canadian Badlands, mo-ments like these are easy to fi nd. Filled with modern, historic and prehistoric wonders, photogra-phers have plenty of options in the Canadian Badlands when searching for their next compo-sition. Th at’s why the Badlands (www.canadianbadlands.com) has a photography tour to help you along the way. Naturally, there’s plenty of

unique geography thanks to the exposed layers of sediment in Dinosaur Provincial Park. But there’s so much else out there! From the Dry Island Buff alo Jump north of Th ree Hills to the meandering Milk River near the Alberta-Montana border, the Canadian Badlands has plenty of opportunities for shutterbugs of all experience levels to capture some magical moments. Did you know the Badlands are one of the sunniest regions in Canada? Th at means more light and more hours of opportunity to capture something magnifi cent. All those extra rays also mean you’ll have an easier time stop-ping the action of antelope run-ning across the prairie, a Golden Hawk soaring overhead or what-ever else you need a high shutter speed for. Nature is obviously a huge part of the photographic possibilities, but don’t forget the people and the places you’ll come across ei-ther. Whether it’s a smiling face

in Drumheller or the impressive architecture of Lethbridge’s High Level Bridge, you’re only limited by your imagination – but don’t count out the inspiration you’re bound to encounter either. Look out across the brilliant fi elds of wheat, corn and canola in all their shades of yellow and green and brown, but try some diff erent angles too. Look up at the 20-story-tall Saamis Teepee in Medicine Hat or down into the blossom of a cactus. No mat-ter which angle you take you’re bound to fi nd something you hadn’t considered before. To fi nd the Badlands photog-raphy tours go to www.canadian-badlands.com and click on Tour-ing Routes, then Activity Tours. You’ll fi nd tips, discover new places and look at ones you al-ready know in a whole new light. After such a busy day, don’t forget you still have the sunset. Might want to dial down your shutter speed – you’ve been ex-posed to a lot today.

There are no shortages of beauti-ful places to snap photos of in the Badlands, from the mystery inspir-ing hoodoos to the wildlife which seems to be everywhere.

The Drumheller Valley is a unique, scenic valley, created by millions of years of erosion by wind and water.

About 65 million years ago, dinosaurs roamed the hot tropical swamps and forests that covered this area. Today, the fossil-ized remains of the dinosaurs can be seen in museums all over the world, and the lush vegetation exists as coal seams throughout the area.

The Valley was first inhabited by Thomas Greentree, who, in 1902, built his homestead on what is now the Town of Drumheller. The Greentree House became a stop-over place for early pioneers coming into the district.

It was Sam Drumheller who first exploited rich coal reserves

in the area and conceived the idea of a townsite in the Valley. Jesse Gouge opened the first coal mine in 1911. In 1913, the Calgary-Drumheller railway line was opened and the coal industry boomed. More than 40 mines were soon operating in the Valley. Mining towns like Nacmine (short for North American Collieries Mine), Midlandvale, Rosedale, East Coulee, Wayne, and Newcastle developed notorious reputations as highrolling boomtowns with bootlegging and gambling. When gas and oil were discovered in other parts of Alberta, the importance of coal diminished and the economy of the Valley turned to other things.

Today, the Town of Drumheller relies on agriculture, gov-ernment services, oil and gas, and tourism for its economic prosperity.

In the Hanna Motor Products lane is Shawn Bulechowsky in his 1984 Corvette with a 605ci. Chevy big block and a 871 blower pushing 25 lbs of boost. The Vette is running in the area of 1,500 horsepower, but capable of 2,000. In the Hanna Chrysler lane is Greg Benzon, and newest member of his Pit crew, Ty, with the Hemisaurus. The 1932 altered Bantam Hemisaurus is running a Hemi, of course, bored and stoked to 526ci. It is push-ing out about 1,400 horsepower, through a 871 blower, but Benzon says it can be easily tuned up to 1,600. This power reaches the wheels through a two speed Powerglide transmission. The two racers have met before and they will meet again next weekend at the Hanna Cruisers Rock and Roll Racing. The two Drumheller rides will be going head to head in feature races on Saturday and Sunday, June 25 and 26, setting up the clas-sic battle of Chev versus Mopar, Rosedale versus Newcastle, Dinosaur versus Tarzan.

A rally is being held this Sunday as CBC will be at the World’s Largest Dinosaur fi lming for a segment of their Live Right Now program. Drumhealthier, a local group who has been promot-ing healthy activities in the valley, has garnered the at-tention of the segment's pro-ducers. Th e group is asking anyone who participants in

activities such as yoga, sports, walking groups, etc. to attend the World’s Largest Dinosaur at 1:00 p.m. this Sunday. “Come out and show how active Drumheller is,” says Drumhealthier’s Tara Sem-chuk. “Th ey want to feature us and our Drumhealthier Chal-lenge. Let’s show Canada what we have.” Th e group was inspired by the prospect of CBC’s health show Village on a Diet fi lming their second season in Drum-

heller. Th is rally and a display of the active mindedness of Drumheller may help bring the show here if their season is renewed by the network. Live Right Now is a national initiative designed to inspire Canadians to join together and change the health of this country. Th e idea is built around the small steps every-one can take in their life to im-prove their health.

Suspension bridge worth the drive to Rosedale

The 117 metre Star Mine Suspension Bridge in Rosedale is a charm-ing piece of valley nostalgia, where miners crossed to toil in the Star Mine across the Red Deer River.

mailfi le photo

The WeekenderinSide Drumheller

Th e Star Mine Suspension Bridge in Rosedale is a charm-ingly quaint piece of Drumhell-er Valley nostalgia. Th e 117 me-tre bridge was originally built to enable miners to work at the Star Mine on the north side of the Red Deer River, across from the community of Rosedale. Although the mine opened in 1912, it wasn’t until 1931 that the original bridge was con-structed. Th e coal miners were originally required to cross the river to and from work in row boats. In 1919 there was an aerial cable car system constructed to transport the men and coal back and forth. From 1912 to 1930, the mine’s tipple was lo-cated on the south side of the river at Rosedale. Th e tipple is the structure which housed conveyors, shak-ers and screens for sorting and grading the coal. It is also used to extract any loose rock that may have been included with the coal. Th e coal was then loaded

from the tipple into Canadian National Railway coal cars, which at the time carried the coal from the Valley. In 1930, the Canadian Pacif-ic Railway built a bridge and a spur line 1.6 kilometres up river and a tipple was built at the mine site. Th e original swinging bridge was constructed in 1931, and although high winds and fl oods made crossing hazardous at times, the bridge was used by the miners until the mine closed in 1957. One year later the hillside col-lapsed and slid over the mine workings. Th e late Angelo Berlando, a former miner in the Drumheller Valley, spoke to Th e Weekender a few years ago of his memories of the Star Mine Suspension Bridge. Th e following, is part of that interview. Angelo Berlando of Drum-heller fondly recalled his days as a young man working the coal mine. Berlando was a boxcar loader at the Star Mine between 1940 and 1957, starting when he was just 16 years old. His duties in-

cluded fi lling up coal into the boxcar and shipping it out of the mine. “It was a good job. I wish I still had it,” he said. “Once you got use to it there was nothing to it.” Berlando continued to visit the bridge on a daily basis, rem-iniscing of his days of youth, back when the bridge was still made out of wood. “It really whipped around a lot,” he said. “Back then if you had a good wind storm you could barely stand on it.” In order to commemorate the colourful mining history of the Drumheller Valley, the Gov-ernment of Alberta rebuilt the bridge in 1958 and continues to maintain the suspension bridge for public use. To fi nd the suspension bridge, travel east from Drumheller on Highway 10 to Rosedale then turn left at the fi rst corner af-ter crossing Rosebud Creek and follow the signs. Th e bridge is a perennial fa-vourite for visitors and tourists, many who treat themselves by walking across one of Alberta’s most treasured mining monu-ments.

DVSS senior high awardsHeritage Ball Class postponed until July 9, 10

Kyle Smylie| inSide Drumheller

Th e Heritage Ball Classic tour-nament scheduled for this week-end at the Hoodoo Campground has been postponed until the weekend of July 9 and 10, because of the wet weather experienced this week and more rain expected over the weekend. It will be held at the Newcastle ball diamonds on Saturday, July 9 and Sunday, July 10, rather than the previous location at Hoodoo Campground. Th e classic heritage match will be held on July 9. Look in this upcoming Wednes-day’s Drumheller Mail for more details.

Drumheller RCMP Staff Ser-geant Arthur Hopkins submit-ted this to inSide Drumheller to warn drivers to be cautious of their habits while operating a ve-hicle. Th e Drumheller RCMP De-tachment receives numerous complaints each year associated to driving violations. Many of these off enders reported non-residents to the area and are

sometimes confused by our roads around the World’s Larg-est Dinosaur. I have recently spent some time watching vari-ous intersections while working and while on my off duty time. During these periods, I have noticed a large number of the lo-cal residents committing similar off ences. Any of these off ences would cause you to receive a “FAIL” if you were taking a driv-ers exam, yet we continue to do them believing it is now alright. We are all very quick to criticize

others driving habits without evaluating our own. We are all creatures of habit and no doubt have developed some bad driving habits that we don’t even notice. Here are some of the obvi-ous violations that I have ob-served: - Not coming to a “com-plete” stop at a stop sign. If the legislators wanted you to slow down, the sign would say slow down not stop.- Turning right at a stop sign or red light without stopping.

Again we all know what a red light or stop sign means.- Speeding - Failing to yield to pedestrians- Failing to wear seatbelts- Children in vehicles without being in a Child Safety seat.- Improper lane usage. Turning into the wrong lane- Fail to signal- Distracted driving (cell phones, texting, reading) Th ese are just a few. I would like to challenge all of the li-censed drivers to review their

own driving habits, and make a conscious eff ort to abide by the applicable laws. Th e life you save, or injuries that are avoided may be your own. As we are now into the tourist season, vehicles and pedestrians have increased. I have directed the members of the Drumheller detachment to pay closer atten-tion to moving violations and to increase their enforcement ef-forts. Please do your part.

Students awarded for improving schools

Students at both Drumheller Valley Secondary School and St. Anthony’s School were rewarded for their work in the Cenovus Energy Connections program, which saw them leave on a four day retreat to camp after completing work to better their school’s envi-ronment. (left) These students started Rachel’s Challenge at DVSS, in remembrance of Rachel Joy Scott who was the fi rst victim at the Columbine School shooting. They say many students were touched by the challenge on May 4 and an Anti-Homophobia Day on May 3. Pictured from left is: instructor Jeff Brooks, Matthew Frisky, Cody Bryant, De-

siree MacFarlane, and Connection’s Alix MacDonald. (right) St. Anthony’s also attended the camp after bringing in a cross cultural simulation game called Bafa Bafa to Grade 7 and 8 students at their school. They hoped to give students a new look at how the foreign students feel when they enter St. Anthony's. Pictured from left is: (back) Nathan Graf and Travis Stirrett. (front) Sarah Contenti and Darby Andrus. Students received a $550 bursary to cover expenses to attend the four day retreat at Camp Kiwanis.

Careless driving habits targeted by Drumheller RCMP

Patrick Kolafa | inSide Drumheller

Spring League basketball wrapped up its season last Wednesday night, and cham-pions were crowned in each of the three divisions. Th e Grade 4-6 division the Spurs beat out the Mavericks, the Grade 7-12 division was won by the Lakers which de-feated the Celtics. Th e Heat took third place over the Bulls and the senior division was won by the Wizards. Th is was the seventh year for Spring League and it has been a great success. In the Grade 4-6 division, 28 youngsters

participated, in the Grade 7-12 division, there were 36, making up four teams, and the adult division had 24 players. New this year was the Little League development pro-grams. On Sunday afternoons, players from Kindergarten to Grade 3 had the opportunity to learn new skills and get a feel for playing basketball. It proved popular with 58 chil-dren signing up. Jeff Messom is excited about how the league has developed. It has become self-feeding as players who have played bas-ketball in the valley through-

out the years give back and contribute to the program. “ (What) allowed me to step into the background is that all of our coaches and refs are former participants of the program, who are now help-ing the younger kids improve,” said Messom. “Without them the program would not be able to run, as they are the individuals who are willing to take time and give back to the program.” Volunteer coaches include Will Belliveau, Joey Browning, Kyle Masson, Mitch Smith, Gavin Pittman and Ross Mor-row.
