Struggled - One of the tasks during the Muscles in Motion kid’s challenge involved turning rubber tires over. Garret Corraini and Connor Schuttenbeld had their tire upright while Sami Lorenz and Katie Bylsma looked for a little help. In the background other youngsters leaped over hurdles or watched the action at Jarvis Bay Provincial Park Saturday. There were 22 children involved in the challenge who participated in a number of activities including crawling over or along monkey bars, under noodles, practising duck walking and bear crawls and carrying jugs. An 8 km trail run for adults and a firefighters challenge were among other events during the day. See next week’s paper for a complete story on the 3rd annual fundraiser. STEVE DILLS

Family Care Clinic for Sylvan good news, but details remain uncertainby Steve Dills

Sylvan Lake News

Sylvan Lake is one of 24 com-munities scheduled to benefit from better access to primary health care as the provincial government announced a new wave of Family Care Clinics (FCC), Tuesday. But what that access will be remains to be defined.

“Today’s announcement is very good news for Sylvan Lake and area,” said Mayor Susan Samson who’s also chairperson of the Urgent Care Task Force which has been lobbying for after hours facilities in Sylvan.

“We look forward to examining the details and planning our future with the province, Alberta Health and Central Zone 5 Alberta Health Service,” said Samson.

She indicated in a release that family care clinics “are not cookie cutter solutions and we anticipate that any new medical services will

be customized to meet the needs of Sylvan Lake and area by providing non-life threatening medical ser-vices including lab and x-ray, seven days a week with extended hours.”

However, she said “the Urgent Care Committee needs to know more information to determine how the Family Care Clinic will meet the needs of our area including flexibil-ity of the model and provision of adequate funding”.

Samson, on behalf of the com-mittee, thanked Premier Alison Redford and Health Minister Fred Horne “for listening and under-standing the need to provide addi-tional medical services for Sylvan Lake and area. With the rapidly growing population in our area, it is important to provide health services where the people are located.”

Redford in a government news release, said, “we are working with physicians and other health care providers on how primary care evolves in the future, and part of

that work is moving forward with Family Care Clinics.”

The release stated the govern-ment “will work with leaders and health providers in the 24 commu-nities over the coming months to develop plans for each FCC. The stand-alone clinics will be staffed with a team of health providers brought together to meet the unique health and social needs of the com-munity they serve.”

FCCs provide non-emergency primary health care services such as diagnosis and treatment of illness, screening, immunization, health promotion, chronic disease preven-tion and management, and links to other health and community agen-cies, continued the release. “Each is expected to provide extended hours of service, same-day appointments and access to the most appropriate member of the care team.”

These clinics are also supposed to complement the services provid-ed by Primary Care Networks

Scary bear - After creeping up on a sleeping grumpy bear, these youngsters turned and ran in delighted terror when the bear awoke and gave chase. They were among 22 children and 18 parents who participated in the Teddy Bear’s Picnic at Sylvan Lake Municipal Library Saturday afternoon. “We read a great story, The Bear Went Over The Mountain by Iza Trapani and had our picnic,” said children’s pro-grammer Heather Parker. “We munched on Teddy Bear Trail Mix, watermelon and juice.” Then the teddies and their owners played a parachute game before the youngsters played the grumpy bear game. They enjoyed refreshments and making terrific crafts — a bear birth certificate, a bear bag and a bear necklace. “Everyone had a great time.” That was the end of spring wrap up. Summer reading club registration started June 1st and there’s a Kick Off To Summer Scavenger Hunt July 4.

(PCNs) of privately owned physician offices that receive supplementary fund-ing to hire other health professionals to help deliver enhanced services to their patients.

Dr. Chris Eagle, Alberta Health Services president and CEO, said, “FCCs are strengthening primary health care in Alberta. Strong primary care will enhance the health of the population, and improve our entire health-care sys-tem. By helping more Albertans with disease and injury prevention, chronic disease management, mental health con-cerns, and aging, we support wellness as well as treat illness, and that means better health for everyone.”

Innisfail-Sylvan Lake MLA Kerry Towle said she’s “glad that after much hard work with constituents, we are now closer to finding a solution for the people of Sylvan Lake”.

“Today’s announcement has the potential to be very positive as long as the government works constructively with physicians in the communities and doesn’t move to eliminate the current PCNs that are in place,” Towle continued.

“We hope the government will take

the right steps to work with the helath experts on the ground in these commu-nities, including physicians, to improve primary care across the province. We need a health care system that strives to put the needs of patients first, and we are cautiously optimistic that today’s announcement will help bring us one step closer to that vision.”

Alberta Liberal Leader Raj Sherman also expressed concern that important questions are left unanswered for Albertans.

“My concern … is that the Redford Conservatives will cannibalize other parts of the health care system to staff and fund these proposed FCCs. Without adequate funding for frontline staff, cuts will be needed to make these FCCs hap-pen.”

He portrayed the announcement as “feel-good” indicating “that’s all it is until Alison Redford engages in meaningful and respectful consultation with doctors and other health care workers”.

Speeding drivers don’t make it safe place for kids to play

Car towed while family on holidaysDear Editor,

I am writing to warn the citizens of Sylvan Lake. Please ask permission of the town before you go on holidays.

When we got home from our holidays my husband’s car was towed. Apparently they had

put signs up on our street with 24 hours notice to move cars for street cleaning.

When was the last time you or anyone you know went on holidays for 24 hours? Well we were gone for a week, and came home to a missing vehicle, which we originally thought

was stolen, and a $400 impound bill. Next time we leave home for over 24 hours,

you bet I’m calling the town to ask permission first.

Katherine/Dan Nelson,Sylvan Lake

Dear Editor,Could someone please ask the resi-

dents of this lovely town what they don’t understand about the speed limit in playground and school zones? Does no one see the giant 30km/h clearly painted on the road? Do they all think it means go 30 over the limit of 40 in town? Do any of these people have chil-dren? What is the hurry?

I walk through three playground zones, both

ways every day and the number of people who just tear through makes me sick. If the police are bored and want to make a pile of money, they should hang out on Lakeway Drive near Winks for a couple

of hours each day. Maybe that would stop some of these

morons from making it unsafe for my kids to play in the “playground zone”!

Between the texters, cell phone talk-

ers and speeders in this town it certainly does not feel like a safe place for kids to play.

Derek Hasiak, Sylvan Lake

There won’t be complete satisfaction in Sylvan Lake and area until we know the details of the provincial gov-ernment’s most recent announcement on health care for our residents.

Those details will provide an indication of whether the politicians and bureaucrats at Alberta Health Services are actually in tune with Sylvan Lake’s long running campaign for urgent care or have turned a blind eye to pursue a different agenda.

Yes, it’s good that efforts by our community have been recognized as reflected in Tuesday’s announcement that we’ll get one of the first Family Care Centres (FCCs). Presently there are three being piloted in the prov-ince. As part of an election promise to open 140 of these centres, Premier Alison Redford has now announced the first 24 locations.

But details are sketchy, something that everyone who’s commented on the announcement has pointed out.

Mayor Susan Samson was cautiously optimistic in her

comments. “At this time the Urgent Care Committee needs to know more infor-mation to determine how the Family Care Clinic will meet the needs of our area including flexibility of the model and provision of ade-quate funding.”

“We anticipate that any new medical services will be customized to meet the needs of Sylvan Lake and area by providing non-life threatening medical services including lab and x-ray, seven days a week with extended hours,” she added.

Reading the government’s press release, and remem-bering discussions about urgent care needs in our community, suggests there are divergent ideas among the two sides.

The government states FCCs provide non-emergen-cy primary health care ser-vices such as diagnostic and treatment of illness, screen-ing, immunization, health promotion, chronic disease prevention and manage-ment, and links to other health and community agen-cies”. The release promises

extended hours of service, same-day appointments and access to the most appropri-ate member of the care team.

Dr. Chris Eagle, president and CEO of Alberta Health Services further stated, “Strong primary care will enhance the health of the population, and improve our entire health-care system. By helping more Albertans with disease and injury preven-tion, chronic disease man-agement, mental health con-cerns, and aging, we support wellness as well as treat ill-ness, and that means better health for everyone.”

Our layman’s reading of these comments seems to suggest that there’s a stron-ger emphasis on preventive health care than reactive health care. In the past, how-ever, we remember a stron-ger need voiced for ‘urgent care’ that will primarily react to certain situations and divert people from the emer-

Must remain vigilant in seeking medical solution to fi t our needsgency department at Red Deer’s regional hospital.

We can only hope that our concerns will be heard since the government has stressed FCCs are not cook-ie-cutter one-size-fits-all models.

Now’s not the time to take for granted that our prayers have been answered. We must remain vigilant in sup-porting our medical com-munity and lobbying for

what’s needed most in our area.

We wonder, as well, that while there are urgent care centres operating in other communities which have been visited by our commit-tee, why the government doesn’t adopt that model and call the planned FCC and urgent care centre instead. Could it be they’re not the same?

Pleased, surprised, happy but very nervous, described cast of playby Steve Dills

Sylvan Lake News

A play about the Women’s Institute of Sylvan Lake spearheading construction of a pier back about 1928 was performed by Sylvan Lake Senior Drama Troupe to a full house Sunday afternoon.

“It was very successful,” said director Pam Shiels.

Members of the cast were “pleased, very surprised, very happy and very nervous,” she said. “They were surprised it ran as smooth as it did.”

A retired drama teacher who didn’t want to stop sharing her talents, Shiels went to the seniors’ centre and found there was interest in starting a drama troupe.

But those involved during the first year weren’t interested in performing before an audience. Most didn’t want to make the commitment — they had other things they were involved in such as curling and travel-ling.

When they started up again in October they talked about doing something special for Sylvan Lake’s Centennial as an ending point for their second season.

By February they’d started research, the script was prepared by the end of March and they began practising in April.

Janet Walter was the instigator for chosing the Women’s Institute as the theme for the play, said Shiels.

“We talked about a focus relevant to the lake and the pier the institute ladies spear-headed became that focus. “If it wasn’t for the Women’s Institute the pier wouldn’t have been built.”

The five people who stayed with the group when they started talking about a perfor-mance got friends to join, found the piper and a set designer.

The script had enough parts for 12 people.

Shiels said it’s a lot of work to produce one play — and they were limited in their seating to about 60 people in the audience. The performance kicked of Seniors Week.

She was certainly impressed by the cast though, noting she is crippled and walks with a cane. “These women can run rings around me, their energy, enthusiasm, commitment to what they do and what they’re capable of doing, their stick-to-it-

ness.”She believes those involved “got an

excellent feeling now they’re done the show and may be willing to do another. It was a wonderful experience. I’m willing to do it again.”

Members of the Sylvan Lake Women’s Institute acted with surprise at learning the cost of constructing a pier during a performance by Sylvan Lake Senior Drama Troupe.

Garage suite debate will be back for another round at council

by Steve DillsSylvan Lake News

The controversial topic of garage suites will be on Sylvan Lake council’s agenda again in the near future after a second attempt to have them banned was deferred.

It will be back on the agenda when all councillors are present. At least one indi-cated he won’t be at Monday night’s meeting.

Councillor Sean McIntyre made a motion to give first reading to a bylaw that would ‘sever’ references to garage suites from the Land Use Bylaw, effec-tively meaning they wouldn’t be allowed in town, at the May 27 meeting.

However Councillor Rick Grimson raised a point of order stating that the same motion had already been defeated at the previous council meeting. “It can’t come up for six months,” he said.

McIntyre said he felt circumstances had changes based on a report from Tim Schmidt, director of planning and devel-opment. However he agreed to a pro-posal by Councillor Ken MacVicar to postpone discussion “to make sure we do know what our legislative parameters are. In two weeks’ time we can make sure we have a motion that if relevant would pass.”

Schmidt’s report requested direction from council on how to proceed. He indicated that in 2007-08 following com-pletion of the Affordable Housing Study it was found there was a need for two or three bedroom units but for a family with income of $35,000 rents were out of reach. “There was a need for secondary suites so we looked at a variety of types.”

Schmidt also noted changes to the Alberta Building Code in 2006 that required garage suites to have windows

and separate doors. A broad regulation indicates there needs to be an exterior staircase, he indicated.

The report made a number of sug-gestions, such as moving the approval process to the Municipal Planning Commission instead of leaving it with the development officer; doing more advertising — both to the construction industry and homeowners — about the fact garage suites may be built in certain areas; and increasing the distance used for notifying neighbours of proposed garage suites (currently it’s 50 metres, Schmidt suggested 75 metres). Another option was to create an ‘overlay district’ which would indicate exactly which lots in new subdivisions could accommodate garage suites.

McIntyre said even with proposed changes there was no change in the rules that allow garage suites. He called for an immediate suspension of garage suite approvals.

Mayor Susan Samson said she was comfortable with the changes proposed. “That would afford us time without sev-ering, My wish is not to sever.”

Going around the table Samson got mixed reaction from councillors.

Councillor Laverne Asselstine said his opinion hadn’t changed. “The Land Use Bylaw, in my mind is a flawed docu-ment. I think it needs to be rewritten. We can make these changes but it doesn’t change a whole lot.” He indicated he was still in favour of ‘severing’ the garage suites from the bylaw.

Grimson was in favour of changes but not of ‘severing’. MacVicar was of the same mind.

Councillor Dale Plante wanted the garage suites ‘severed’.

Councillor Graham Parsons indicated he had been in favour of ‘sev-

ering’ but had changed his mind and would accept the changes pro-posed.

Telus investing $3 million in new infrastructure and facilities in Sylvan


A $3 million investment in new infrastructure and facilities in Sylvan Lake will allow Telus to offer “even more access to faster internet, the world’s most advanced wireless technology, and our Internet-based television service, Optik TV,” according to Fred Weinheimer, general manager, Telus customer solu-tions delivery.

The investment is part of a $700 million plan for Alberta this year.

Once the work is complete Telus will have invested $3.5 million in Sylvan Lake since 2009.

“Our sustained investment in technology and infra-structure in Sylvan Lake and across Alberta has already made us one of the most connected communities any-where in the world,” added Weinheimer. “This year

Multi-family buildings required to provide recycling by Steve Dills

Sylvan Lake News

During their regular meeting May 13, Sylvan Lake councillors:• passed first reading of a bylaw which will require owners of multi-family dwellings with 12 or more units to provide suitable on-site recycling services for their tenants.

There are nine buildings that fall under this bylaw with a total of 474 units. Staff is to contact building owners in writing to solicit feedback and bring the bylaw back to council at a later date for second and third reading.• approved the purchase of a second automat-ed garbage collection vehicle. The 2013 budget included funding for purchase of one vehicle which was ordered in March for October delivery. It was expected the second vehicle would be proposed for the 2014 budget.

By purchasing the second truck now for delivery later this year they can reduce the time spent collecting gar-bage and increase the number of pickups as the town grows.

Currently garbage is collected four days a week and by retrofitting an existing truck with a lift

assist arm, a fifth day would likely have been needed until a second new truck was added.

The second truck will be purchased from Superior Trucks Ltd. of Calgary for $236,233 excluding GST, and minor incidental costs, the same price as the truck ordered in March. It would be paid for from the solid waste reserve.• directed administration to develop parame-ters for a new or integrated fee assistance pro-gram to specifically identify support for spe-cial needs children and adults in Sylvan Lake and propose the fee assistance program to council during 2014 budget deliber-ations. In the meantime the existing ‘You Can Play Too’ program will be maintained for 2013.

The report arose following a request for assistance with recre-ation fees made by Sylvan Lake Special Needs Support Group at the Apr. 8 council meeting.

• unanimously approved the

development permit for Hockey Central’s sports lounge and memorabilia store which is located in the former Smugglers building at the corner of 50th Street and Lakeshore Drive.

Council’s approval was necessary because the property is within a direct control zone.• Dogs loose in Centennial Park was a concern voiced by Councillor Laverne Asselstine. “We really need somebody to deal with this issue, stop dogs running at large and making a mess. We need boots on the ground. People read signs by the just don’t get it,” he said.

Thank You!On behalf of Dave and Sheryle Bolduc, we would like to thank everyone for their generous support for the

fundraiser that was held on May 25. The evening was very successful due to the many volunteers and the

many donations from businesses, friends and family.

Please take the time to support local businesses and thank them for their generosity.

Fox Run’s fi rst fashion show raised over $650by Kim Matthews

Special to Sylvan Lake News

École Fox Run School hosted its first ever fundraising fash-ion show and had an amazing turn out, May 23.

The event was a fun-draiser to support T.O.U.C.H Ministries work in Ogooma, Uganda. The schools in Sylvan Lake have all completed different fundraising events for this group in hopes of making a huge differ-ence.

According to Joanne Sikma, with T.O.U.C.H., we already have. A new well for drinking water and a

school house room that was named after École Fox Run School were funded from last year’s fundraising events.

Ticket sales and a bake sale raised over $650 for the charity. Students, staff, family and others in atten-dance all had an incred-ible evening.

The students should be very proud of how the fashion show turned out — some of them started out a little nervous but gained confidence throughout the evening.

Models all had to go to three different stores that agreed to lend out-fits and sign a contract agreeing to take care of the clothing on loan.

Ten stores loaned cloths for this amazing event. Those in Sylvan Lake were Mulberry Lane, Cobbs Clothing, Nomads, Cast Away Sports and The Whole Show. Stores from Red Deer included, One Tooth, The Edge, West 49, American Eagle and Old Navy.

The models includ-ed Mitchell McDonald, Liam Edgecombe, Dylan Harnett, Sheldon Trudel, Trysten Sylvester, Lindsay Ojala, Kirsten Prelle, Madison Scott, Bryn O’Brien, Shaye Strain, Cassidy Klein, Faith Kerik, Jocelyn Mosset, Victoria Matejka, Taylor Bootsma, Elise Dumont, Piper

Lavergne, Hannah Lynn, Baylee White, Taylor Valliere, Alexis Cadman, Allyssa Cossuta, Morgan Lockyer, Kyndal Cutforth and Erin Matthews.

MC’s for the event were Emma Villeneuve and Megan Finner who did an excellent job.

Parent helpers were Janice White, Abby White (KG Country)

and Trudy Strain. Back stage student helpers were Zoey Rodin, Kierston Lewandowski, Amy Busch and Kaitlyn Simpson. The incredi-ble staff at École Fox Run School are always

there to support their students. A big thank you must be given to David Pengelly and GES Canada for the runway and curtain set up for the evening.

Dylan Harnett modelled stylish clothing.

Madison Scott displayed a trendy style.

Kristen Prelle struck a pose on the runway.

By Jonathan NashFrontline Worship Centre

Something I have been thinking about lately is the importance of encouraging those around you.

We all have people in our lives that just make you a better person. Make you want to pursue the dreams in your life and do things maybe that you never dared to do. I love that about people, who call out the best in people around them, who see the best in others. I think the reason why we love that so much is because that is what Jesus is like.This reminds of the story of Gideon in the Bible. Many of you who know the story will often think about how he overcame great odds and saw God work in a powerful way in his nation. But what we often forget is his humble beginnings.See, before any of that happened in his life, his nation was in a big trouble. For seven years their enemies were coming through, stealing and destroying their land, and really no one would stand up to them. I mean you could just imagine what that would do to someone’s spirit. Day after day, month after month, year after year of running and hiding.

But nally after seven whole years of these problems, God sends an Angel to Gideon. And here Gideon is, hiding even then, and this is where God chooses to meet with him. What I love about this story is that the Angel does not come and say “get your act together” or “quit being so afraid”. He comes and says to him “The LORD is with you, O valiant warrior.” This was not how Gideon felt at all. In fact, his response to the Angel is basically correcting the Angel.“O Lord, how shall I deliver Israel? Behold, my family is the least in Manasseh, and I am the youngest in my father’s house.” He basically says this: I am actually really weak and my house is really weak, and my tribe is really weak.You see, his circumstance was him hiding and him scared. He was weak from the least tribe, the least family in that tribe and the least of his family. Yet God saw him differently.And even though he was weak and he was incapable when someone saw the best in him and called out the best in him, he rose to the challenge.God bless you.

Assaulting officer charge arose from erratic driving incident

Saturday, May 25th12:51 a.m. – RCMP were called to

a domestic dispute on 52nd Avenue in Benalto. A child contacted 911 ad-vising that her mother was being as-saulted by her father. Members dis-covered a 41-year-old woman in the residence with a cut over her eye. She admitted to being assaulted. A 40-year-old male was arrested at the scene and is charged with assault causing bodily harm.

2:17 a.m. – An RCMP vehicle was stopped for a red light on Highway 11 at Highway 20 when a vehicle sped up behind the cruiser, took the right exit lane and veered around light standards and continued westbound. The member conducted a traffic stop, found the plate on the vehicle to be expired and the driver exhibiting signs of im-pairment. The 34-year-old male was arrested and placed in the police vehicle where he damaged the unit’s radar equipment. The male then proceeded to have an altercation with a police officer. He is facing a multitude of charges including impaired driving, refusing a breathalyzer, assaulting a peace officer, mischief under $5,000 and dangerous driv-ing.

Sunday, May 26th 1:05 a.m. – Police were called to an assault in-

volving two males in an alley behind the apartment

complex near Rexall drug store on 50th Street in Sylvan Lake. A 26-year-old male was found with broken teeth and a bloody mouth. The victim told another male to stop making offensive comments

to other people in the group when he was struck in the mouth with a Vodka bottle. A 31-year-old male residing in Sylvan Lake is facing two counts of assault with a weapon.

2:16 a.m. – A house party on 50A Avenue re-sulted in a 911 call being made to RCMP. A com-plaint was made of a party starting to get out of control with people yelling and screaming. One of the occupants of a residence was locked out of their home. A warning was issued to the home-owner and the party was shut down.

11:21 p.m. – A 29-year-old male is facing charges of impaired driving and driving while un-authorized. RCMP received a call of a suspicious vehicle with its headlights on, parked at the end of a driveway on Birchcliff Road for an extended pe-riod of time. When members attended the scene, they found a male asleep behind the steering wheel of the vehicle and noted a strong odour of alcohol. The male received and failed a breathalyzer, result-ing in impaired driving charges. He was also found to be a suspended driver.

BBQ - École Mother Teresa Catholic School held its Family BBQ at the school last Wednesday evening. Rain that fell throughout the afternoon stopped just in time to allow teachers Joanne Michaud and Maria King, and volunteer Rob Snyder, to cook hamburgers outside. STUART FULLARTON

Renovated - Joined by staff at Sylvan Lake Dental Centre, Mayor Susan Samson cut the ribbon to officially open the newly renovated premises which now take up the entire floor of the building at 5043 50 Street. With Samson were Tara Kress, Dr. Garth Eliason, Lenni Phillips, Jamie Fleck, Kelsey Saari, Emily Alexander, Christel Baier, Kari-Anne Fraser, Lisa Serhan and Dr. Kelvin Hill. The renovation project started a year ago and Hill said they worked through all but three weeks of that time. He’s operated the dental centre since 2001 when it started with half of the floor. Over time, as space became avail-able, they expanded. The business includes two dentists and 14 employees, said Hill. STEVE DILLS

Open house will detail future plans for Highway 11 access west of Sylvan


Those interested in future plans for transforming Highway 11 west of Sylvan Lake to a four-lane express-way and then ultimately a freeway will have a chance to view proposals by consultants at an open house in Benalto next Tuesday (June 11).

The event will take place from 4-8 p.m. at Benalto Community Hall.

Sylvan Lake councillors listened to a detailed expla-nation of the access study during their meeting May 27.

Karim Abbany and Joey Sherstabetoff, with AMEC, explained their study looks at the area from west of the Highway 781 intersection to the Highway 766 south intersection just west of Eckville. “The intersection treatment at 781 is outside the scope of our study,” said Sherstabetoff.

Moving to expressway status, said Abbany means there would be accesses to Highway 11 provided at local road intersections a minimum of 1.6 kilometres apart. Then freeway status would mean the only accesses to the highway would be at interchanges.

“This project is the planning stage, this is not on any construction schedule,” he said.

When construction moves ahead for twinning and expressway status, Sherstabetoff said all direct accesses such as those to private residences and field accesses will be closed. The study indi-cates how people affected by these changes will be able to get on and off the highway through a series

OUR DOOR TO YOURS – MOBILE GLASS SERVICE

Sylvan Lake: 403-887-6661 Eckville: 403-746-2975

of service roads.“We really didn’t change much from

the plan presented a year ago,” he said, referring to an open house which took place in Benalto last June.

He detailed the proposal for potential realignment of the main access into Benalto by lining it up with Range Road 25. The current Township Road 390 access (formerly Highway 11A) would be moved east to use Range Road 24 so that the one mile (1.6 km) spacing between accesses to the highway is maintained.

Once the change is made to freeway status an interchange is recommended somewhere in the area of Range Road 25.

An interchange is also indicated on Sylvan Lake’s west side at Range Road 15.

The types of interchanges recom-mended were also presented.

Abbany indicated Alberta

Transportation would do a separate study on an interchange in the Highway 766 north and south area.

Asked about timing, the pair indicat-ed it’s going to be a long way out. “It’s all going to depend on development in the area and traffic volumes.” They noted Highway 2 between Calgary and Red Deer is still in the process of converting to freeway status.

Abbany stressed, “this is in the plan-ning stages. It’s not scheduled for any construction. There’s no timeline for construction. The purpose is so it’s docu-mented so when they (Alberta Transportation) looks at timing they have something to refer to for access.”

Planning also gives residents and oth-ers affected by changes advance notice of what’s proposed.

NOTICE: IMPORTANT CHANGES TO GARBAGE COLLECTION ARE COMING!

What changes? The town will be switching to automated garbage collection. What this means is that the new garbage truck will reach and lift the container into the truck with little physical effort from the operator.

The new automated method of collecting is effi cient, reduces litter, and greatly reduces the risk of injury to our staff. When? The program is expected to be launched in late summer or early winter of 2013. Will my collection day change? Due to the growth of the town, some residents will see their garbage collection day change. Does this change affect green box or yard/kitchen waste collection? No, your recyclables and yard/kitchen waste will continue to be collected as is. Green box containers are supplied by the town while yard/kitchen waste containers, or biodegradable bags, are supplied by the residents. How do I fi nd out more information? The details of the program will be introduced to residents throughout the summer, or contact the Public Works Department at 403-887-2800.

Quilting - Sylvan Lake Brownies and residents of Sylvan Lake Seniors Lodge created a one-of-a-kind quilt recently. The creation was developed with the interest of both groups. Sylvan Lake is celebrating being 100 years old and so is Guiding in Alberta. The quilt had Guiding memories and pictures of the past 100 years for both generations to colour and complete. Once the quilt was coloured and outlined, Mathilde Umlah created a beautiful quilt. There were enough squares to build two quilts, one of which will be hung on the wall at the lodge. It will also be at the quilt show during 1913 Days events June 14 and 15 and the community centre. One picture shows the Brownies involved with their quilt patches while the other is the finished quilt shown off by residents of the lodge. The 12 areas of Guiding in Alberta and the territories were challenged to build 1,200 quilts. Our area has been able to give 17 people quilts and 44 pet quilts. The pet quilts are being donated to pet shelters and the SPCA. SUBMITTED

Town examining water supply to determine steps for addressing growth by Steve Dills

Sylvan Lake News

During their regular meeting May 27, Sylvan Lake councillors:• heard in the chief administrative officer’s report that a study of the present status of town water supply capacity has begun. “Our engineers are reviewing the current pumping and licensing statistics, anticipated new devel-opment growth and possible indications from the recently conducted aqui-fer report by Golder Associates,” stated the report. “It is intended to develop a position which will be presented to Alberta Environment and Sylvan Lake Regional Water Commission detailing the next steps necessary to obtain addi-tional sustainable supply for increasing demand in the region.”• were provided with an overview of the 2013 traf-fic analysis which includes a traffic study and safety plan. The plan includes an enforcement calendar which indicates which areas of town, intersec-tions, school zones and roads will be targeted for various traffic offences or monthly safety themes.• approved the terms of reference for the Sylvan Lake Tourism Strategy Steering Committee and appointed Joel Johannson, Catherine Bais, Graham Parsons, Vicki Kurz, Joanne Gaudet and Betty Osmond to the commit-tee. Dale Plante will serve as the council representa-tive on the committee.

The project is to be completed by October.

Kurz, the town’s eco-nomic development offi-cer, indicated the commit-tee is not to develop poli-cy but is to guide her since she’s new to town. She explained public meetings

facilitated by consultants are being used to develop the strategy.

A May 10 session attracted 20 people and about 30 were scheduled for a half day meeting May 28.• unanimously approved a corporate communications strategy for the town developed by consultant Downy Norris and Associates. The strategy addressed both communications with staff and with residents and visi-tors.

Recommendations will be used to develop actions to address various sections of the report over a two-three

year phase-in.• proclaimed Seniors Week in Sylvan

Lake as June 3-9.• cancelled their August 12 council meet-

ing so they will only meet once in August — on the 26th. Councillors normally cancel one meeting in December and another during the summer.

Joy Banks, Dawn Nelson, store owner Paul Ventura, Jordyn Hiscox (kneeling), Deb Hiscox and Justin Hiscox. The event was in celebration of Jumpstart’s May Red Ball campaign, which, through the month of May, encourages customers to donate $2 in exchange for a red ball — a national symbol for child’s play. Money raised for Jumpstart is used to help those local kids who couldn’t normally get involved participate in organized sport. The barbecue and sale of hanging baskets raised $753. “Considering the weather that was pretty good,” said Ventura. Another Jumpstart fundraiser will take place during the Drive-In movie June 14 when snacks and refreshments will be sold. The show, The Goonies, is part of Sylvan Lake’s Centennial celebrations.

Benalto Elementary School students cele-brated the beginning of a fundraising campaign in style last Thursday.

They took part in a number of jump rope activities during an assembly held to mark the beginning of Jump With Jeremy — named after a former Benalto School student, Jeremy Williamson, who has cancer.

The two-week fundraiser is now in its fifth year and funds collected are donated to a differ-ent charity each year.

This year’s charity, as chosen by the Williamson family, is Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada.

Representatives of the charity and its Jump Rope for Heart program attended the school’s kickoff assembly to thank students for support-ing the charity, and talk to them about the importance of living a healthy and active life-style.

“Fundraising for Heart and Stroke Foundation is very important, and we want to thank you guys for doing such hard work for us,” said fun-draising co-ordinator Kim Elson.

Also addressing the students was Austin McGrath, who, at the age of 20, suffered cardiac arrest while swimming.

McGrath told students his heart stopped beating for 15 minutes, resulting in him being hospitalized for 47 days.

He suffered memo-ry loss, and had to relearn how to walk and talk.

“It was because of people like you that I am able to stand here and tell you my story today,” he told stu-dents. “Because of someone like you, I am enrolled in college and going to university.”

McGrath said bystanders were the first to notice something wasn’t right with him that day at the pool.

“It wasn’t the lifeguard, it was two bystanders getting in the hot tub,” he said. “It’s everyday people that notice the signs of a heart attack or cardiac arrest or a stroke.”

The Heart and Stroke Foundation does much to educate people on the signs of heart prob-lems, he said.

A year after he was released from hospital, McGrath swam across Sylvan Lake in support of the foundation, raising more than $10,000 in the process.

Students of Benalto School will raise money for the charity by collecting pledges, and through recess ice cream sales.

Fundraising began last Friday with a garage and bake sale. Donation jars have been placed in each of the school’s classroom. A jar will also be at Benalto store for the duration of the fund-raiser.

Later in the month, a celebration day will be held at the school, where students will learn if they achieved their $1,000 goal.

Williamson, whose younger brother attends the school, will be at the celebration.

In previous years, the fundraiser has seen as much as $2,700 raised for charities, which, in the past, have included Stollery Children’s Hospital and Kids With Cancer Society.

“When I was a kid we had a skipping club in every school,” remembers Cynthia Morton.

Now she and hus-band Bruce have five children. The older ones started skipping on the deck and really love it, she said. But they didn’t have the proper form, knew no tricks and really didn’t know how to skip.

That’s when she began searching for skipping clubs in the area and was astonished the closest are in Edmonton or Calgary.

“I looked at what it would take to start a skipping club here in town,” Morton said. “Besides insurance and finding a venue it wasn’t hard.”

Now she’s promoting the first session of Sylvan Lake Skippers, which will be held in the upper mezzanine at the multiplex beginning July 3rd and run every Wednesday for eight weeks from 6-7 p.m.

“It’s a cheap enough venue to keep prices down for the kids,” she said. The price is just $30 (then an optional shirt is available for an additional $20). For those who can’t afford the price contact Monique at the aquatic centre about the possi-bility of help through the Jumpstart program.

The first session will be for youngsters 8-14 years old. Then in the fall she plans to offer a kids club for ages 4 and up. “I think we’ll have an adults club as well, there’s lots of interest from adults.”

Morton will be the coach and is looking at bringing in a club from up north to demon-strate their skills.

“We’ll teach the kids basics, different tricks, double dutch and more. The advantage of skip-ping is you can’t get bet-ter exercise,” she said.

“We’ll go through levels one to six and as kids progress and learn more things they’ll be

Skipping club starting in Sylvan for youngstersawarded pins.”

The training levels are from the CANSkip program (www.canskip.com), Canada’s national rope skip-ping skill development program. It’s a 12 level program.

“It’s a very easy program. I can see a lot of kids working through three or four levels in eight weeks.”

Morton said the Sylvan Lake pro-gram is also registered through Alberta Rope Skipping Association

and Rope Skipping Canada.One of her goals is to get more

boys involved. “A lot of boys are hesitant because they think it’s a girls thing. But when you look up online lots of boxers, hockey and baseball players train with skip-ping.”

She added her husband trained for the military and skipping was one

of the biggest training aspects.To register online by June 14, go to

www.SkippingThroughSylvan.com or call Cynthia Morton at 403-864-7508. She also encourages people to ‘like’ the group’s Facebook page to keep track of information about them. “I’m hoping this is a long term thing with a few sessions each year.”

Steenbergen invited to NHLPA mentorship camp


Sylvan hockey player Tyler Steenbergen has received another invitation to hone his hockey skills this summer.

He’s one of 42 bantam-age players from across Canada selected by the National Hockey League Players’ Association (NHLPA) to par-ticipate in the third annual Allstate All-Canadians Mentorship Camp in Mississauga from August 6-10. It’s hosted by NHL players under the leadership of 21-year NHL veteran Gary Roberts.

“The intensive five-day camp will conclude with the Allstate All-Canadians Mentorship Cup — an inter-squad exhibition game on Aug. 10 which will be broadcast on TSN.

Players attending the camp will learn the necessary steps to support budding hockey skills through fundamental factors including appro-priate nutrition, fitness, on-ice training and mental skills — the four pillars of hockey devel-opment identified by the program, according to a news release.

“The NHLPA has made a strong commit-ment to sharing the players’ knowledge and experience with Canada’s youth … this is our third year in working to develop a program that will help educate not only the 42 bantam-aged players that are directly involved, but also parents and young hockey players across the country,” said Mathieu Schneider, of the NHLPA.

“Each year I look forard to sharing my story and experiences throughout my 21-year NHL career and the role that fitness and nutrition

played in my success,” said Roberts. “I feel strongly about the importance of educating young players and their families about develop-ing skill sets that will improve performance both on and off the ice and advance them to the next level in their careers and I look forward to con-tinuing this tradition.”

Steenbergen, 15, is one of 10 players invited to participate from Alberta. Last month he was drafted 12th overall by Swift Current Broncos during their first round pick at the Western Hockey League Bantam Draft.

Donaghy selected for Team

Alberta’s 18U volleyball teamby Steve Dills

Sylvan Lake News

Volleyball player Alex Donaghy has been named to Team Alberta’s 18U wom-en’s team following a selection camp in Calgary in mid-May.

She’s one of 12 players selected from about 50 athletes who were invited to the final selection camps in Edmonton and Calgary. The list had been narrowed down from 69 teams that compete in 17U and 18U age categories, according to Diane Bugler, program director with Alberta Volleyball.

Donaghy will train in Edmonton from July 7-15 before travelling to the University of Manitoba in Winnipeg for the National Team Challenge Cup (NTCC) July 16-21.

The NTCC tournament is a training and competition based event in which top athletes from each province have the opportunity to train and compete with each other, under the guidance of national team coaches and staff, states the Alberta Volleyball website.

Donaghy was captain of École H. J. Cody High School’s senior girls volleyball team this year. Coach Jason Chatwood said she is the definition of a leader. “She led by example, it was easy for the girls to look up to her. She was the hardest worker in practise and she takes her school work just as seriously. Her work ethic is why she’s so successful.” He added she’s a “great team

player. She’d do anything you ask from her.”Donaghy was the 2011-2012 high school

female athlete of the year. Besides volley-ball, she also competed in basketball, soc-cer and participated in track and field.
