2 SYLVAN LAKE NEWS THURSDAY, MAY 28, 2015

A new tourism-based website — visitsylvanlake.ca — has been launched by the Town of Sylvan Lake in a bid to provide area visi-tors with easy access to local information.

The Town partnered

website

with Tourism Red Deer for the website’s content devel-opment and online infra-structure, with the hopes of seeing it used as a starting point for local tourism-based initiatives, develop-ment and activity.

A Tourism Strategic Plan developed by the Town in 2013 outlined the need for such a website. The importance of the tourism industry in Sylvan Lake became clear in 2014

after an assessment indi-cated a dollar-figure impact of nearly $75 million. The same study found that more than 760,000 people visited Sylvan Lake in July and August of that year.

Town economic devel-opment officer Vicki Kurz earlier this week noted the new website is “still a work in progress, with feature stories and events yet to be added.”

STUART FULLARTONSYLVAN LAKE NEWS

A close call along the shores of Sylvan Lake saw a mussel-infested boat barred from entering the water over the May long week-end.

The boat was intercepted during a manda-tory inspection at the Sunbreaker Cove boat launch, just as the trained inspectors manning the site were getting ready to end their shift.

“They determined through the protocols that we train them in that the boat was high risk, and so they did a high risk inspection — a very detailed inspection — and they discovered mussels on the watercraft,” said Cindy Sawchuk, a strategic advisor with Alberta Environment and Sustainable Resource Development.

The incident proved both the effectiveness of the province’s mandatory boat inspections and the reality of the threat posed by invasive species, Sawchuk added. Invasive species such as zebra and quagga mussels have no known control measure, and their presence

can cause irreparable harm to aquatic systems and vital underwater infrastructure.

For that reason, prevention is key.“Clean, drain, dry — that’s the message

that we want to get across,” said Sawchuk. “ We can inspect boats, but it’s really up to the boaters, because if they start to clean, drain and dry their boat every time they leave a water body, and boaters in Alberta start to change their behaviour, we’re effectively eliminating the risk of transporting any of these species.”

The mussels found on the Sylvan Lake-bound boat were believed to have originated in Ontario, where the boat was purchased from. The boat’s owner, Sawchuk said, was “very co-operative and extremely compliant.”

“His exact words to me were, ‘I don’t want to be responsible for spreading the plague into Alberta waters,’ and so they were quite mortified,” said Sawchuk. “If mussels do get introduced ... it would be very bad.”

The province last week said the boat would be decontaminated free of charge by spe-cially trained transport officers.

JANET KEEPINGTROY MEDIA

It is probably difficult for people who have not lived in Alberta to understand the significance of our recent election of an NDP govern-ment: After 44 years of one-party-state politics, we have proved to ourselves that political change is possible by making that change.

Post-election polls show that Albertans are largely satisfied with the change. A substantial portion — many of us not card-carrying New Democrats — are ecstatic about it. As a writer in Macleans put it, Albertans “are celebrating a passing from sickness into health, a seizure of freedom for Alberta.”

Albertans resolved, as an article in the Calgary Sun said, to “throw the bums out,” and finally we did.

The result is nothing short of intoxicating. But now that the PCs are deposed, what next?

Two big picture items scream out for Albertans’ attention. On the substantive policy side, we need to devel-op an across-the-board sus-tainability agenda. Alberta’s oil sands, for example, con-stitute Canada’s fastest grow-ing source of GHG emissions and an ecosystem- and com-munity-destroying phenom-enon of gargantuan propor-tions.

But dealing with the oil sands is only the beginning. Other examples abound. For example, Alberta has the

Hot off the press and chock-full of information on the town and its amenities, this year’s Discover Sylvan Lake is now on shelves.

The 64-page publication produced by the Sylvan Lake News offers an insight into all that’s new and exciting around town, as well as a look back at some recent major events.

There’s also a wide array of advertisements that promote the town’s many businesses, clubs and organizations, and several town and area maps to help you navigate your way around.

The publication has a one-year shelf life, making it a must-have Sylvan Lake guide for first-time visitors and long-time residents alike.

Alberta NDP must act quickly to ensure change endureslargest and fastest growing gap between rich and poor in Canada. This undermines our social sustainability and our cities have expanded to accommodate rapid popula-tion growth in a profoundly unsustainable way. As Naheed Nenshi, mayor of Calgary, has often observed, we have built cities we can’t afford to operate and maintain.

On the democratic pro-cess side, we need to strength-en our democracy while we can by enacting election finance reform and by adopt-ing a fairer, more representa-tive voting system. There is no doubt, as National Post columnist Andrew Coyne and others such as Fair Vote Canada constantly remind us, our voting system is shockingly unrepresentative.

The results of the recent Alberta election illustrate the problem: the New Democrats got 40 per cent of the popu-lar vote but won 62 per cent of the seats. The political preferences of many Albertans are not reflected in the make-up of the new Legislature. And this is a typical result of our electoral system: the PCs fierce dom-inance of Alberta’s politics for so long was facilitated and exaggerated by our unfair electoral system. We need to adopt proportional represen-tation, a system where the fraction of the vote received is fairly — proportionately — reflected in the allocation of seats among the contesting parties.

But to address our enor-mous sustainability chal-

lenges and electoral reform, we have to ensure our democ-racy is never again domi-nated by big money. In Alberta, that means money from the fossil fuel industry (oil, gas and coal). Contributions to parties and candidates must be limited to individuals; corporations and other organizations, unions included, must be banned from making politi-cal contributions. Appropriate limits, much lower than the current ones, must also be enacted.

This part of the Alberta reform agenda is actually pretty straight-forward and there are good examples in

Canada as to how these changes can be made in law and policy. Further, election finance reform was an NDP election promise. Albertans have to insist that this reform be enacted soon so that we don’t miss this opportunity while a party that is not in bed with industry holds power.

After 44 years of PC power, it is good that anoth-er party has a decisive major-ity for now. Albertans need time to establish some kind of balance after decades of PC dominance and the rot that set in after years of uninterrupted power. But we need to get to a better, more

representative, political sys-tem as soon as possible and that can only come through adoption of proportional representation.

It’s a truly wonderful time to be a politically engaged Albertan. There’s a hopeful-ness, one Albertans haven’t experienced for decades. But huge issues have been long ignored by a series of lazy, entitled and business-subser-vient PC governments.

The work to be done is immense, but it’s also excit-ing. Let’s get on with it.

Janet Keeping is leader of the Green Party of Alberta.

A pair of Sylvan Lake artists have asked for the Town’s help in preserving a castle in Sylvan Lake that’s said to have been built more than 100 years ago.

Mary Grace Toth and Marian Jacoba Shilka, addressing Town Council as a delegation on Monday night, said they’ve become concerned with the deteriorating state of the “Stone Castle” on 50A Avenue. And while they’ve had no luck contacting the property’s owner, rumblings of a potential sale have made them fear that the castle could soon be lost forever.

“We see this beautiful castle that’s been vacant for 10 years deteriorating day by day,” said Toth. “It’s in disrepair — windows and doors are boarded up, there are signs of vandalism, boards are broken and doors are damaged.”

The two said they’ve been “inspired by visions of what the castle could become,” and asked Town Council to con-sider enacting a bylaw that would protect and preserve the town’s oldest buildings, such as the castle and the “Stone House” on 46 Street.

“(The castle) could be a tourist attraction for down-town,” said Toth. “A museum, a gift shop, a tourist informa-tion centre — it could be many things that bring people to our town and that remind them of our history.

“We need your assistance in saving our castle for it to become a community resource, because it’s such a signifi-cant contribution to our history. It’s a very enchanting place.”

The stones that make up the castle, believed to have been built around 1905, were said to have been gathered from the shores of the lake.

Toth said two attempts to claim the castle as a historical site have been made in the past. Neither, she said, was fol-lowed through.

Recent ongoing criminal activity has prompted one Sylvan Lake resident to urge Town Council to consider ways of teaming up with residents to fight crime locally.

Jordan Sinclair, addressing Town Council during the open microphone seg-ment of Monday night’s regular meeting, said he had been awoken the previous night

by the sound of voices of people conspiring to access both his and his neighbour’s prop-erties.

With such activity not uncommon in the area, he said, now is the time for the Town to take action.

“The town is rife with this problem,” he said. “Do something to get something started to make sure our residences and property are safe.”

He suggested adding more policing or

establishing a citizens patrol to help miti-gate property crimes.

The latter, he felt, would need the Town’s weight behind it in order to be effective.

“They need guidance training, and I think that’s a role that the Town has to play,” he said. “It’s at the point I think where people in certain areas of town aren’t feel-ing safe in their homes, and property is not safe in homes, sheds and garages.

“It’s time we had some ways to stop

that.”Mayor Sean McIntyre responded to

Sinclair’s concerns via social media earlier in the day, noting that a regional RCMP property crimes task force has proven effective in fighting property crime in the area recently.

McIntyre added he was hoping to set up a meeting with Sylvan Lake RCMP Staff Sgt. Gary Rhodes in the near future to dis-cuss the issue further.

Sylvan Lake Town Council on Monday voted to increase NexSource Centre debt financing to $16 million from $13 million, following the approval of a nearly-$3-mil-lion project budget increase in late April.

The budget increase arrived as the result of a value engineering exercise carried out earlier this year. Council chose the debt financing increase out of three financ-ing options presented by staff on Monday to make up for the additional costs.

Others options suggested reducing spending in other areas — potentially affecting projects and upgrades on Lakeshore Drive and Centennial Street — and increasing sponsorship and grant funding by up to $1 million.

Councillors agreed that

requesting another $1 million out of the project’s fundrais-ing committee was a big ask.

“The volunteers that run that campaign signed on (to raise) $2 million,” said Mayor Sean McIntyre. “It’s not fair for us to ask them to raise more.”

McIntyre suggested other ways of raising money for such initiatives in the future, including a home lottery previously proposed by Coun. Dale Plante.

“Coun. Plante has done some background work on a home lottery and its abilities to contribute to the NexSource Centre and other programs, and I think that not only is it an option, it’s something like that we ought to consider,” he said. “We need community champions to make it happen, but I think it’s something we ought to discuss.”

The total budget for the NexSource Centre now sits at $33,550,000.

Have you ever wished that things could be diff erent? Do you wish that you could just snap your fi ngers and your life would change?There are things that I’ve walked through in my life that I wish I could just say Kazam and change in an instant. I wish my brother in law hadn’t died on the worksite. I wish my friend hadn’t committed suicide. I wish the hurt my friends and family have felt over the years could just fade away.Talking about the resurrection of Christ, and his follower’s future resurrection along with them, the Apostle Paul said this:When the perishable has been clothed with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality, then the saying that is written will come true:

“Death has been swallowed up in victory.” “Where, O death, is your victory?

Where, O death, is your sting?”

Do you believe in the resurrection? Do you believe in the hope it brings? It’s not a hope to simply escape; it does not just want to get out of this life. It’s a hope that everything from this life can be made new, which includes all of the hurt and heartache you’ve felt in this life. It’s the hope that those moments of good you experience are the way life is really supposed to be and that one day, we will see life restored, we will see pain washed away, we will see victory over death and most of all… Most of all, we will see Jesus and the fullness of the love He has for us.

Parents of Benalto School students are considering ways of increasing enrol-

ment at their children’s school after being told the school’s future could be in

Benalto School parents aimingfor enrolment boost

doubt.Chinook’s Edge School

Division recently completed a two-year viability study of the school in light of stag-nant enrolment — which the division says decreased slightly further over the course of the study.

With 30 students cur-rently enrolled, school staff and parents have been told numbers must now go up before the start of the new school year in September, at which point the school board will make a decision on the school’s future.

“The bottom line is we need our numbers up,” said Kelly Mykyte, vice president of the school’s parent coun-cil. “If we have our numbers increased by 15 kids, (the board) will definitely take notice.”

To that end, Mykyte and other parents have begun extolling the school’s virtues to parents in Sylvan Lake and Eckville, informing them that they too can send their children to school in Benalto.

There are, according to Mykyte, plenty of benefits to

doing so.“When you come to

Benalto, you see this is how school should be,” she said. “The level of education is good, the teachers are so involved with the students, and all of the kids play together — all ages — where you don’t really see that in the bigger schools.

“I really truly think that when people move to Sylvan, they don’t even consider Benalto, but it is an option out there.”

Chinook’s Edge superin-tendent Kurt Sacher said division staff will continue to monitor the school’s enrolment situation closely between now and September.

“No decisions have been made as far as what the board will be doing next year, but it certainly is on our radar, and in the mean-time, we’re trying to support some really devoted parents that are trying everything to bump the numbers up for their school,” he said. “We’ve been thoroughly impressed with that school council and what they’ve attempted to do to try and secure a higher level of student enrolment over the long haul.”

If numbers don’t increase, the fate of the school will “depend on what the board would like to do,” he added.

“We’ve certainly men-tioned to them that we’re concerned about the enrol-ment ... and I as a superin-tendent have a responsibility to make the board aware of those numbers in September,” he said. “We found that there’s a really positive learning environ-ment for students there with the teachers that are in place and the caring staff that are there, and it’s just the goal of the school council and our goal to ensure that we’re able to continue to provide that level of service over the long haul.”

Meanwhile, Mykyte assures she’s ready to do whatever it takes to ensure the school’s long-term future.

“I’m very passionate about the school and the community, because if the school fails, the community starts to suffer,” she said. “Now is the time where peo-ple start thinking about schools for next year, and it gives parents time to make an informed decision.”

The beginning of June marks a special time for all Sylvan Lake residents, who between June 1 and 7 are being invited to come together to celebrate Seniors Week.

Daily activities and entertainment for seniors are planned throughout the entire week — all as a way of saying thank you to some of the community’s most valuable citizens, according to Maryan Weenink of the Sylvan Lake Seniors Association.

“Seniors are awesome, and they are big contribu-tors to our community,” Weenink said. “They are the grassroots of our com-munity. They've given their blood, sweat and tears for us.”

Weenink added that many senior citizens are active community mem-bers who spend time vol-unteering and giving back to the community. Though Seniors Week concludes June 7, seniors are appreci-ated very much year-round, she assured.

“They help families out and they are a big part of the community that we can't overlook,” she said. “It's important to make sure the seniors know that they are appreciated and that they are an integral part of our community.”

Musical entertainment, a bridge tournament and a barbecue are all part of the Seniors Week lineup of events. A full schedule is available on the Sylvan Lake Seniors Association Facebook page.

Some events require registration in advance. More information is avail-able by contacting Weenink at 403-887-5428.

A new lakeside develop-ment has employed what it calls “Conservation by Design” to minimize impact on the environment.

The Slopes of Sylvan Lake is a 49-acre cluster-style development located near the Summer Village of

Birchcliff that has retained 25 acres of undisturbed natural area in what its developers call “the future of development in the water-shed.”

“We believe we have achieved the perfect balance between managing the steady

population growth while ensuring the long-term health and sustainability of the lake,” said Chris Artibello, president of Belterra Land Company. “Our Conservation by Design techniques promote the cre-ation, retention and manage-

ment of our 49 acres, and they ultimately help us achieve a smaller develop-ment footprint.”

The development is tied into the Regional Wastewater Line lift station, adding further to its environmental appeal. It’s that same appeal

that earned the development a voice of approval from Lacombe County, within which the development is situated.

“Our goal is to provide quality communities and to protect the lake at the same time,” said Lacombe County

commissioner Terry Hager. “The Slopes of Sylvan Lake does both.”

The Slopes’ first stage of construction is now com-plete, with a number of villas and homesites available. An open house at one of the villas is slated for May 30.

Organizers of the 2015 Best Body Fitness Sprint Triathlon on Sunday are calling the event a success, despite having to deal with a forced swimming cancel-lation, route changes and a medal shortage.

Athletes were supposed to start the race with a swim at the Aquatic Centre, but with the

pool still out of service, the tri-athlon was turned into a duath-lon.

Having athletes swim in the lake was considered, but ulti-mately decided against by race director Steve Miller and co-race director Scott McDermott, who deemed water temperatures to be too frigid.

Even though participation numbers were down by about 35 from the previous year, there

were still around 68 volunteers who helped with the event.

A total of 126 adults took part, while 77 children partici-pated in the Splash and Dash event that followed.

McDermott said participating athletes were understanding and upbeat, despite the setbacks.

“The weather was perfect and everything went really well,” McDermott said. “A few flat tires on the bike course, but no real

challenges, and most of the local traffic was courteous and kind.”

Medals were awarded at the end of the race, but due to delays in shipping, there was a shortage. The issue became evident as medals ran low when the chil-dren came in, McDermott said.

The disappointment at the prospect of not receiving a medal was evident on the faces of some children, he added. And that’s when some of the adult racers

showed their generosity, result-ing in one of the day’s more poi-gnant moments.

“They were coming up to me in droves handing over their own finisher medals for the kids,” McDermott said. “I must admit, I choked up and my eyes got a little moist. Every kid got a medal. Many of the adult athletes gave up their winning gold, sil-ver or bronze medals. It was amazing.”

Gold - The Sylvan Lake Volleyball Club’s Wave 14U team won gold at Division 3 Tier 3 Volleyball Canada Championships in Calgary earlier this month. Back row: Rhonda Carpenter (head coach), Jenna Meier, Alyssa McGregor, Hana Lockyer, Laila Watson, Kate Berg, Lacey Burrage, Travis Carpenter (assistant coach). Front row: Olivia Quaife, Mataya Rideout, Kadey Rosie, Deni Brauer, Ashlie Mounkes. Missing: Madelyn Nielsen. SUBMITTED


Five Lakers football play-ers have been given the chance of a lifetime to play for junior football teams in Edmonton and Calgary.

Sulley Larocque, Kyle Eckenswiller and Landon Rosene all received invita-tions to play for the Edmonton Huskies, while Skylar Selk and Seth Blagen were invited to play for the Calgary Colts.

Joining the junior football teams means a huge life change in making the transi-tion from minor football to playing on a junior team with bigger, more advanced team-mates as old as 22.

The boys commit to at least one season with the team and are required to play most days of the week for several hours each day.

The Colts will play most of their games at McMahon Stadium starting Aug. 16 and ending with a national cham-pionship game on Nov. 7.

Colts head coach Matt Blokker said new players in their first year are trans-formed from boys to men.

“It's a huge jump for them,” Blokker said. “But at the same time these guys are trying to create a balance between life and football so they can reach their aspira-tions of being football profes-sionals and playing univer-

Lakers football players invited to play for junior city teamssity football.”

Blokker said if the players can excel on a junior team, they have a real chance of moving on to playing for higher-level teams such as the Calgary Stampeders.

He said the new players have to adapt to playing with others who have completely different lifestyles. He described a possible situation of a first-year player being lined up beside another older player who is married with children.

This is meant to help new players adapt quickly to dif-ferent situations in a fast-paced game, where preparing for a game isn’t all about being on the field and run-ning with the ball.

Blokker said the players have to do their homework before playing the game, which means preparing at different levels every week.

“It's a learning process and until you go through your first year, you don't under-stand it,” Blokker said. “Our job is to teach that and make sure that our guys in their

first year are mentally pre-pared just as much as they are physically prepared.”

The Edmonton Huskies start their football season Aug. 15 and finish Oct. 11. They will play many of their games at Clarke Stadium.

Just like the the boys who were invited to play for the Colts, the boys playing for the Huskies are required to be fully committed to the game as well.

Huskies media co-ordina-tor Hernan Salas said once the season starts, the players are typically on the field Monday to Saturday, with Sunday being one of their only days off.

Salas said being on the team provides players with a supportive family atmosphere where the coaches, manage-ment and the board care about the well-being of the players.

“Being around them you feel like family,” Salas said.

“From the board members right to the last player on the roster, there's always interac-tion and they’re always want-ing to help these kids out. They learn how to respect one another and they are all like brothers at the end.”

Salas said many of the Huskies players have been accepted to play for college-level football teams and are equipped with strong work ethics, which they learned in their time playing for the Huskies.

“It's a lot of commitment for these guys and they’re not getting paid,” Salas said. “These kids work their butts off and they don't just sit at home and wait to practice. They have daily lives. It's admirable what they go through.”

The most important thing the new players learn is how to work hard, how to train hard and how to keep their personal lives going — all of

which Salas said prepares them for real-life situations as adults.

Lakers head coach Jeremy Braitenback has had the privilege of training these five players into the young foot-ball players they are, and said they are exceptional players who have made their coach-es very proud.

He said it's not typical for five players to receive invita-tions to play for the junior teams.

“In the past we haven't been able to put many play-ers on post-secondary teams because the city has always had advantages over our programs, but we're starting to catch up,” Braitenback said. “The kids are playing as

young as eight years old. These guys had the benefit of playing since they were 10 years old.”

He said the Central Alberta football program has come a long way with having football all the way down to the Atom level, where the kids can start playing at eight years old, which was an advantage the children in the city seemed to always have.

But now he said there is more of an equal opportu-nity.

Braitenback said he and the other coaches are very proud of how five of their players have made it on the teams and said it goes to show how far the players have grown within the program.

Hockey Canada will mark its 100th birthday with a three-day celebra-tion in Sylvan Lake start-ing May 29.

The organization offi-cially turned 100 in December, and through-out the entire hockey sea-son has been visiting communities all across Canada with its Century Tour caravan filled with interactive historic hock-ey displays.

The tour will be situ-ated at the Sylvan Lake Canadian Tire on Friday, May 29 from 1 to 7 p.m., Saturday, May 30 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Sunday, May 31 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Former NHL player Rhett Warrener (Calgary Flames, Buffalo Sabres, Florida Panthers) will be on site from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturday.

During the Sylvan Lake stop, a synthetic ice rink will also be set up, allowing local teams and players to participate in free programming ses-sions. Hockey Canada’s Mike Dundas will lead on-ice skill sessions, and will be assisted by Sylvan Lake Hockey Camp Staff.

To participate in the sessions, players are required to have played in Sylvan Lake Minor Hockey’s Novice, Atom or PeeWee divisions in the 2014/2015 minor hockey season. Participation is being offered on a first-come-first-serve basis. Players participating in all skill sessions are required to wear full hockey gear.

Participants are encouraged to register as early as possible by call-ing 403-887-2159 as space is limited.

A free skate will take place on the synthetic rink from 3 to 4 p.m. on both Saturday and Sunday, and is open to anyone interested in play-ing on the surface. A hel-met, gloves, skates, a neck guard, elbow pads and a stick are required.
