Red Deer County approves facility enhancement fundingSTUART FULLARTON

SYLVAN LAKE NEWS

A number of rural community facilities in the area will soon benefit from grants approved as part of Red Deer County’s 2014 Capital Grants program.

More than $225,000 in funding for 20

separate facilities was approved at county council’s Nov. 4 regular meeting. That money will go toward facility upgrades, additions and replacements.

Poplar Ridge Community Centre was approved for one of the program’s largest grants at $20,000. That money will fund the installation of a baby change table, a new counter, bathroom sinks, and upgrades to

the facility’s kitchen.Spruce View Community Hall, Fensala

Hall, Dickson Store Museum and Markerville Community Society were among the program’s other funding recipi-ents, and will carry out similar maintenance projects.

The county has provided rural facilities with more than $1.5 million since the

beginning of the grant program in 2007.“This program allows the county to

partner with local volunteer community groups, who then provide the labour and skills to upgrade their facilities,” said com-munity services manager Jo-Ann Symington in a release. “It is truly a win-win situation.”

JASMINE O’HALLORAN–HANSYLVAN LAKE NEWS

An emergency medical technician was recog-nized by the Sylvan Lake RCMP on Tuesday for his quick thinking and bravery in helping police apprehend a prisoner in July.

Joey Manson was presented a certificate of appreciation by S/Sgt. Gary Rhodes at the Sylvan Lake detachment for his role in apprehending a S/Sgt. Gary Rhodes presents Joey Manson with a certificate of

appreciation for his role in helping police catch a fleeing prisoner earlier this year. JASMINE O’HALLORAN-HAN

EMT recognized by RCMP for helping apprehend prisoner

fleeing prisoner, after an RCMP member’s knee buckled in the pursuit.

Manson caught the prisoner, and restrained him until the RCMP member was able to carry out an arrest.

“To be commended is quite a feeling,” he said. “It could have been anybody else, but I just took the opportunity as I saw fit.”

Manson added he wasn’t expecting recognition for his actions, and was simply helping a colleague in need.

“We have such huge camaraderie between all emergency services here,” he said, describing the incident as being “very interesting and very excit-ing.”

It also gave him a stronger appreciation for the work police officers do.

“To see that these members do what I did on a daily basis is an amazing thing,” he said. “It gives me a profound respect for what they do.”

Rhodes said the situation Manson was involved in provided a prime example of the benefits of the teamwork and co-operation that exists between all emergency responders.

“It’s a really great example of somebody in emergency services helping out another team member,” he said. “Even more than that, it’s an example of a citi-zen helping out a police officer who’s been injured, and (appre-hending) an escaping prisoner who would have escaped without the efforts of Joey.”

Sylvan Lake Unit Almost 50% Over Quota of $99,000 in 9th Victory Loan campaign.

The final figures are not yet com-plete but today the total stands at $144,100, and it is thought that $150,000 might be reached when all

Parcels for members of the forces from Sylvan Lake still serving over-seas were packed and mailed this afternoon.

In past years, parcels sent by the Sylvan Lake Christmas Cheer Committee have always been appreci-ated and welcomed by the recipients and the committee hopes that this year will be no exception. Members of the purchasing committee, Mrs. A. S. McClean, Mrs. C. Ralph and Mrs. M. Conaty, made a very nice selection of articles.

Packing was done at the home of Mrs. McClean. Assisting in this work, besides the hostess, were Mrs. Ralph, Mrs. Conaty, Mrs. Speedie, Morgan Conaty, Chas. L. Dunford, A. S.

McClean and Jack Speedie. ♦ ♦ ♦

A Remembrance Day service was held on Sunday, Nov. 11, at Sylvan Lake Cenotaph, Father Stewart offici-ating.

There was a good turn out despite the cold weather. Veterans, members of the I.O.D.E. and Girl Guides parad-ed from the Vet’s hall. After the ser-vice about 40 Vets enjoyed dinner at “Charlie’s Place”.

50 years ago ...From the issue of November 26, 1964

The only nomination received by Returning Officer Jack May for the office of councillor on Wednesday was that of Percy Dare. He’s the new coun-cil member.

Andy Kinasewich, one of the pro-

prietors of Sylvan Lake Hotel had been nominated previously, but his nomination was invalid as his name did not appear on the voters’ list or on the assessment roll. All his property is in the name of Kemo Holdings Ltd.

♦ ♦ ♦

Councillors discussed the forthcom-ing meeting with Hon. Gordon Taylor, minister of highways, at their meeting Monday night. It was decided to request that the provincial camp site be turned over to the town for use as a picnic ground and park, or that the province administer it. Suggestions as to how it should be managed as a camp ground were that a definite number of camping spaces be set out and that more rest room facilities should be provided.

Looking for roses in DecemberIt seems winter,

with all its white-on-white chilly frosting, has arrived.

As usual, I’m not very seasonal and I found myself on the day of the first great white snow-storm trying desperately to pull a snow shovel out of the shed where it was lodged somewhere behind the lawnmower.

“You’re not very well prepared,” someone said jokingly. I was pre-pared to be all offended, except he was at the other end of the snow shovel when he said it.

Was it really only a week or two ago my son and I had winterized the back yard, storing hoses, cleaning out flowerbeds and stacking lawn chairs?

I was so proud. Now I can’t even find my snow shovel. Ice scrapers? Mitts? Boots? Where is all that stuff?

But, prepared or not, winter is here. And, no doubt, as usual it will be cold, harsh, unforgiving and last for a very long time.

Really it just goes from bad to worse.

But still there are — even in the deepest, darkest of winter — those moments that just seem so awesome;

sort of like coming in from the cold to a room with a fireplace that crack-les and snaps and emits heat of some sort.

Also, wrapping your fingers around a mug filled with something very hot like coffee or hot chocolate — or even better, some kind of alco-holic beverage that is guaranteed to warm your insides.

Anyway, these are those moments that are kind of like roses in December, except of course they may be buried under the snow, and you have to really look for them.

This year, I have already had a few such moments to warm me up.

For instance, I attended the Remembrance Day service in Red Deer, which was held outside. It seemed ridiculous for such a warm weather person as myself to even

TREENA MIELKE BLACK

PRESS

think about attending, but I did.And there I was freezing, snap-

ping pictures and, weirdly enough, feeling all warm and happy.

I’m sure it had to do with all the people who were walking up to my brother, who is a Korean War vet, and shaking his hand and saying thank you.

It was incredible, really, and it goes to show you that a person can feel proud, humble and slightly sur-prised all at once.

That was me, not my brother, whose smile was brighter than all his medals, so I’m guessing he was more than pleased with all the attention.

And then there was the baptism of my youngest grandson, Jacob.

When his mom handed the child, dressed in his little white christening outfit, to me after the event, I knew,

without a shadow of a doubt, I would have braved 100 snowstorms just to be there. As it was, there was only one, and as I was driving through it, I kept muttering to myself “I’ve driv-en in worse than this,” which I have, but for some reason, that thought didn’t seem all that comforting.

Anyway, it’s only just November and we have a long, long way to go before the time changes and the sun is, once again, benevolent, and the grass grows green and people sit on their decks and are all happy just because.

So, until that time, it’s best to find those moments, whatever they be, that keep you warm and happy, even when the thermometer goes a little crazy and registers some off-the-wall number that is far too cold to even write about.

Bill C-13 will undermine our privacyDear Editor,

Anyone who thinks Bill C-13 is about cyber bullying needs to read the darn thing, start to finish. Once I did that, I found myself asking, why is the government trying to ram this bill through in such a hurry? We’re in no more real danger today than we were yesterday, or two months ago, or two years ago.

Using the one-off actions of unsta-ble individuals to further this kind of agenda is contemptible, and this legisla-tion goes so far over the top, it’s practi-cally made-in-America. I’ve always thought we were a bit better than that. Take the time to get it right, and don’t try to hide it from Canadians. Doing so only makes it look like you think you have something that needs hiding.

Frankly, I do not want my govern-ment spying on it’s own citizens. When the authorities deem they require such action, it should be all above board, under the oversight of an independent

body, with a warrant required, with complete transparency after the fact, and subject to severe penalty, including jail time, if it is found to have exceeded reasonable boundaries. If that’s too dif-ficult for our current law enforcement agencies, then perhaps they should spend some time going back to the old school, learning how to do things the old-fashioned way.

Just because the technology exists to make surveillance ridiculously easy compared to what it used to be, doesn’t mean it should be made easy. Mr. Earl Dreeshen needs to think long and hard before he decides to put his name behind this bill as it is currently written. It’s the sort of thing the folks over at OurPrivacy.ca will take note of.

I encourage Canadians to learn more about how we can work together to safeguard our privacy at OurPrivacy.ca.

The Giving Tree returns to Sylvan Lake

STUART FULLARTONSYLVAN LAKE NEWS

Members of the community are being given the opportunity to make Christmas a little bit extra special for residents of Bethany Sylvan Lake.

The Giving Tree is now up at the Sylvan Lake Value Drug Mart and bears 61 decorative gift tags — each one listing items sought by a resident of the care centre.

Shoppers are encouraged to take one of the tags and purchase the ‘wish list’ items marked on it, before dropping them off at Bethany.

This year marks the fourth year the tree has been put up, and each year it proves vastly popular among generous Sylvan Lake residents, said Eileen Dudman of Friends of Bethany, the volunteer group that oversees the initiative.

“Our idea is to give the community an opportunity to become involved in our seniors’ lives at Christmas time,” she said. “That’s why we call it the Giving Tree.”

As well as volunteer-ing with Friends of Bethany, Dudman also works at Bethany, and often works Christmas morning. That gives her a chance to witness firsthand the joy of res-idents as they open their community-pro-vided gifts.

“Their response is wonderful,” she said. “I wish we could all be there to see it.”

Volunteer Connie Cartwright said feed-back from the commu-nity has been similarly positive, with many people frequently ask-ing her throughout the year when the tree will return.

She’s hoping all of the tags will be gone

before the mid-December deadline, a feat that was accomplished for the first time last year.

Gifts listed on the tags cost between $15 and $20, and must be brought to Bethany (4700 47 Ave.) during business hours before Dec. 12. They must also be unwrapped and be accompanied by the gift tag from the tree.

But that’s not the only way mem-bers of the community can get involved. Friends of Bethany are ask-ing people to consider gifting their time to residents of the care centre by simply visiting with them, helping with recreational activities and spe-cial events or providing entertain-ment.

Information on volunteering is available by contacting Bethany vol-unteer co-ordinator Sheila Klein at 403-887-7741.

An intoxicated male was report-edly yelling and cursing in the stairwell of the hotel, creating a safety concern for hotel staff. A 29-year-old male was arrested for breach of the peace and being intoxicated in public. He was transported to cells until sober.

1:57 p.m. – A 44-year-old Sylvan Lake male is facing more charges after breaching conditions of a recogni-zance in relation to a previous robbery incident. The male was observed by RCMP attending a local liquor store on 46th Street in Sylvan Lake and was confirmed to have purchased alcohol, which were violations of his conditional release.

As a result, he was arrested at the scene. He is charged with two counts of failing to comply with conditions of a recognizance and theft under $5,000 in relation to a subsequent shoplifting incident at the liquor store.

November 1010:02 a.m. – Charges have

been laid against a 21-year-old female in relation to the theft of a truck out of Rocky Mountain House. A male reported to RCMP that his truck was stolen from outside his residence. The male

told police that a female temporarily residing at his residence was also missing. The male later tracked the female to a residence in Sylvan Lake where he located his truck and contacted police. The female, a resident of High Prairie, is formally charged with possession of property obtained by

crime over $5,000. November 12

2:38 p.m. – An investigation is underway into the theft of gas at the Fas Gas on 50th Street in Sylvan Lake. Staff at the gas station reported that the driver of a truck left heading south toward Highway 11 after fuel-ling up without paying.

7:22 p.m. – RCMP were called to attend a single vehicle collision off Highway 11 at Range Road 10 in Sylvan Lake. A witness reported that a vehicle being driven by a female veered off into the ditch. EMS attended and the female was trans-ported to hospital as a precaution as she was exhibiting signs of possible drug intoxication. The 22-year-old Sylvan Lake female was issued a 24-hour suspension. She is also charged with driving carelessly and transporting liquor in an open con-

tainer. Her vehicle was towed at the scene.

November 145:46 a.m. – A 26-year-old male

reported that his truck was stolen from his residence in Bentley. The owner advised that a set of spare keys were left inside the vehicle along with his passport. The vehicle was later recovered by RCMP in Three Hills, Alberta. Fortunately, the passport was also located and returned to the owner.

7:29 a.m. – RCMP received a report of a break and enter at the Kuusamo Industrial Park on Range Road 22 at Highway 11. Entry was gained by cutting a lock on the gate.

Equine assisted therapy program returning in January


An equine assisted therapy program is set to return to Rainy Creek Ranch in January to provide weekly horse riding clinics for disabled youth and adults.

Clinics will focus on helping individuals with a variety of physical and emotional impairments, through both riding- and ground-based individu-ally-built programs.

The benefits of the program are bountiful, according to Rainy Creek Ranch owner and pro-gram head instructor Sandra McLeod.

“There’s a huge amount of research out there that shows that horses improve all different facets of learning, and our program focuses on quite a few of the different areas that these people really need help in to succeed,” she said. “Horses are so honest in what they portray to an individual — the feedback is immediate by a horse.”

Individuals with autism or social and behav-ioural problems are among those most suited to the program, said McLeod. But it’s open to, and will benefit, people with nearly any type of dis-ability, she added.

“The benefits are huge, especially physically and emotionally,” she said. “We build it around the individual: Some individuals do not want to get on the horse, and that’s fine. We can design their pro-gram to be on the ground with the horse. Some individuals want to get on the horse, and so our program would facilitate them riding.”

In a learning-based environment, participants

are taught how to work with horses, and in turn learn valuable skills that will benefit them in both their future careers and lives in general, according to McLeod.

The program has been run by Rainy Creek in the past, but funding proved something of a bar-rier for some prospective participants, she said. The creation of new avenues of funding, however, has made it more accessible now than it’s ever been, and will help to ensure the program’s lon-gevity, McLeod hopes.

“The research shows that (the program) needs to continue, absolutely,” she said. “There are a bunch of people pulling together this time to make sure that it continues to run.”

Central Alberta Special Equestrians (CASE) previously ran the program, but now, along with corporate sponsors and donations, acts as a source of funding for the program at Rainy Creek Ranch.

“The program is a collaborative effort of fund-ing groups, professionals and corporations with big hearts,” said McLeod.

Its instructors are fully qualified in a number of areas, including therapeutic equestrian and fitness rehabilitation, among others.

Beginning Jan. 9, adult classes will take place Friday mornings, with youth classes to follow in the afternoon.

Information on how to register and securing funding for the program is available by contacting McLeod at [email protected]. Details are also posted on the Rainy Creek Ranch website at www.rainycreekranch.com.


Preparations underway for youth ‘voluntour’ trip to EcuadorSTUART FULLARTON

SYLVAN LAKE NEWS

Preparations are underway for a once-in-a-life-time ‘voluntour’ trip that will see a group of Sylvan Lake youths spend two weeks in Ecuador in April 2016.

While there, members of the travelling group will divide their time between sightseeing and vol-unteering with a service learning project — the latter of which could include anything from help-ing build a school or medical clinic to digging a well or planting a garden.

It’s the second time high school teacher Kelsey Wilson has organized such a trip, having taken a group of youths to Kenya for a similar ‘voluntour’ experience last year.

She wants the community to know the value of the experience for both the travellers and the locals who benefit from their volunteer work.

“Travel is one of the best educators, and (stu-dents) can experience the world from a different perspective,” she said. “They’re not going to be staying in a hotel; they’re going to be staying exactly in that area and helping out and learning what it means to give back to a community.”

As an avid-traveller, Wilson feels the best way to experience the world involves not just sightseeing and exploring, but also giving back in some way.

That’s the message she wants students to take away from their Ecuador visit.

“I love the idea of not only going, but also help-ing,” she said. “And while it’s service learning to help that part of the world, we’re going to go the the Galapagos and swim with the sea lions and experience that as well.”

The trip is being offered to Sylvan Lake youths

between the ages of 14 and 18, as well as any parents who wish to accompany them.

Fundraising for the trip has already begun, with various campaigns currently

underway.Wilson is hoping the community will

support the travelling group’s fundraising initiatives. Information on how to do so, as well as information about the trip’s first

organizing meeting, is available by con-tacting Wilson at 403-848-2468, or at [email protected]. A discount will be offered for registrations received before the end of the November, she said.

Healthy learning - Children and their parents learned about healthy eating before testing their newly acquired cooking skills at Community Partners last Wednesday. AJ Elder, Kate Vanderpol, facilitator Cinzia Cappella, Jacob Colley, Ashley Colley, Alyssa Colley, Katie Labelle and Nikki Labelle were among those who attended the FCSS (Family and Community Support Services) sponsored children’s cooking class.

It’s amazing how often God gives me opportunity to put into practice the stuff that I preach. Last week I was preaching from Romans 12 where it says don’t be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good. That very night someone stole my wallet out of my truck and proceeded to go on a bit of a spending spree. Fortunately we caught it mid-morning and were able to take the necessary action. But I have to admit that overcoming this evil with good wasn’t where my thoughts were at until God brought me up short and reminded me of the sermon.

I haven’t had the opportunity to direct this approach at the perpetrator, but the evil in my heart was defi nitely overcome by God’s goodness. It got me thinking about what Paul means by overcome. Let me give you a picture that might help explain.

Wendy and I were in Hawaii with her folks for their 25th Anniversary. We were sitting on a beach together and she went into the water to cool off . She wasn’t far off shore but was about chest deep as the bottom dropped away sharply. As she was enjoying the relaxing ebb and fl ow of the waves the water level dropped to her knees. Unfortunately she

didn’t realise what this event preceded, nor did she catch my shouting and pointing in warning till too late. A massive wave came out of “nowhere” and towered over her. She panicked eyes wide with sudden terror and tried to outrun the wave. You can imagine what happened: she was overcome by the wave. (By the way if this happens to your wife, for the love of Pete, don’t let her see you laughing when she crawls out of the foam gasping and sputtering, hair in her face and sand everywhere!)

That’s the picture (the wave, not my poor wife) that Paul had in mind; an irresistible wave of love and mercy and grace overcoming everyone in its path. I’ve always read that Romans verse as pointing outward, that is, overcoming evil someone does to you. It is, but fi rst the evil in me needs to be overcome.

The fi rst couple of verses of 1John 5 tell us that anyone born of God overcomes the world. Do you have some evil in your world that needs to be overcome? Maybe it’s time you sat down with God to truly understand what it means to be “born of God.” And when you do, expect the wave to hit you fi rst.

Still time to make Movember contributionSTUART FULLARTON

SYLVAN LAKE NEWS

We’re now more than halfway through November, which means our Sylvan Lake News team’s Movember campaign will soon be drawing to a close.

Progress is now visible on the faces of each of our team members, who have been collecting donations both online and in person for the past three weeks.

Of course, there’s still plenty of time to donate to the cause in support of men’s health initiatives, and to show you the importance of your donations, here are some stats provided by Movember Canada:

• This year, more than 23,000 men in Canada will learn they have prostate cancer.

• In Canada, men die by suicide at a rate more than three times higher than women.

• Approximately 40 per cent of Canadians will develop cancer at some point in their lives.

• In 2013, more than 173,000 Canadian Movember participants raised close to $34 million.

Prostate cancer, testicular cancer and men-tal health initiatives are the primary beneficia-ries of Movember funds raised. But there’s much more to the campaign than raising money.

Moustaches — particularly those grown by typically clean-shaven individuals — tend to create an interesting point of conversation, and in turn create a greater awareness of the Movember cause.

In fact, the initiative began along those lines in 2003, when two friends in Australia challenged each other to a moustache growing

contest throughout the month of November. Inspired by a friend’s breast cancer fundraising initiative, the two decided their cause would focus on men’s health. Some of their original rules and guidelines still exist in Movember fund-raising today, and it’s now up to us to keep the conversation going.

If you wish to support us and make a donation, head over to ca.movember.com, and search for the Sylvan Lake News team. Or, give us a shout at the office and find out other ways you can get involved.

Thank you to everyone who has already donated! Happy Movember!

Online payment system to make life easier for parents and school staffSTUART FULLARTON

SYLVAN LAKE NEWS

A new online payment system is elimi-nating the need for coins and paper money in nearly all aspects of school life through-out Chinook’s Edge School Division.

The division for the past two years has accepted school fee payments online, and is now expanding its online payment services to include field trips, lunches and other programs and activities.

The move will make life easier for both parents and staff, according to division assistant treasurer Alex Schultz.

“The parents who have signed up for this option have typically loved it, and the

schools that have embraced the online pay-ment system have alleviated a great deal of distraction for staff,” he noted in a release. “From school registration fees to hot lunch-es and field trips, online services is simply what busy families have come to expect from a professional organization.”

The system will be introduced to Chinook’s Edge schools in phases. Office staff will become fully trained and prepared for its implementation.

École Steffie Woima School in Sylvan Lake was one of the first schools to get a glimpse of the system in action, and it’s been embraced by everyone who’s used it so far.

Jodi Hinshaw, administrative support at

the school, said that the system “literally reduces hours of unnecessary work,” allow-ing school staff to allocate their time in a more effective manner.

Collecting, separating and tracking hot lunch forms is just one of many time-con-suming tasks that’s been eliminated with the new system in place.

In completing her teaching practicum at École Fox Run School, Hinshaw has become aware of the limited time teachers have for dealing with tasks such as counting coins. Many people, she noted, have begun to expect to deal with such issues online now anyway.

“Parents appreciate that we provide the service ... and our students aren’t tasked

with the responsibility of lugging cash around, so the benefits are for everyone, and they’re fantastic,” she said in a release.

She added the school even has a com-puter on site for parents to use to make payments on.

Sgt. Jeff McBeth is new to the Sylvan Lake RCMP de-tachment. JASMINE O’HALLORAN-HAN

JASMINE O’HALLORAN–HANSYLVAN LAKE NEWS

Sgt. Jeff McBeth, the town’s new operations non-commissioned officer (NCO), is the newest face at the Sylvan Lake RCMP detachment.

McBeth and his family relocated to Sylvan Lake from Fox Creek in September. So far, he’s greatly enjoyed working in town, and is happy to be fulfilling a “lifelong dream.”

“I think it’s the best job in the world, but I’m a little biased,” he said. “It was a lifelong dream of mine to be a Mountie. Every day when I come to work I still feel that same thing, even after 15 short years. In policing, (time) goes by so quickly.”

In addition to Fox Creek, McBeth has also worked at detachments in Strathmore, Leduc, Bretton and Drayton Valley throughout his 15-year-career.

Originally from Red Deer, he remembers visiting Sylvan Lake in the past, and says he’s familiar with the area.

“Being from Red Deer and coming to Sylvan Lake was a no-brainer,” he said. “I grew up in this area. I know how beautiful the community is and I knew my family would love it here.”

McBeth describes his role at the detachment as dealing with “any urgent things that need to be dealt with, or people I need to talk to, just to make sure I’m up to date on everything that’s going on in our detach-ment at any given time.”

He’s also responsible for making sure that members are adequately investigating files.

“If they need assistance, I’m here with a little bit more service to give them guidance ... or teach the junior members a little bit more knowledge and skills to advance them up the ranks to becoming better investigators,” he said.

Away from work, McBeth steps into the role of being a dad. Camping with his family in summer is a particular hobby.

“I try to turn off being a cop and go home and just be a dad and deal with that stuff and have as much of a family life as I can,” he said.

“Sometimes in polic-ing, you’re not so lucky — you get called away quite a bit, but that’s not the case here, based on the position I’m in. I cer-tainly enjoy that.”

McBeth happy to be

Michael McLetchie of the Innisfail Legion Pipe Band plays at the closing ceremony for Veterans Voices of Canada’s Flags of Remembrance tribute at HJ Cody School on Saturday. STUART FULLARTON

Veterans Voices of Canada founding CEO Allan Cameron (right) presents a flag to Robin McCormack, who sponsored it in memory of his son, Cpl. Zachery McCormack. Zachery was killed in action in Afghanistan in 2009. His father Robin spoke at the Flags of Remembrance closing ceremony at HJ Cody School on Saturday, and noted his appreciation for organizations like Veterans Voices of Canada.


The patriotic flag display that adorned a portion of Highway 11 just outside Sylvan Lake for the past several weeks has now been lowered, but will return again next year, assures Veterans Voices of Canada (VVOC) founding CEO Allan Cameron.

The 116 ‘Flags of Remembrance’ were raised by VVOC late last month in tribute to Canada’s war dead. A ceremo-ny at HJ Cody school on Saturday marked the official end to the tribute — but only temporarily.

Cameron said the flags will be raised again next year in at least one location, with plans in place to potentially see them relocated to a different communi-ty each year. He’s also hoping to see the display erected not only in Alberta, but throughout the entire country.

Until then, VVOC will continue its historical-educational documentation of Canada’s veterans, he said, adding the flag tribute was successful in reminding veterans that they’re appreciated not only on Remembrance Day, but all year-round.

Veterans’ Week activities in Sylvan Lake concluded just several days before Saturday’s ceremony, and saw no short-age of participation. But such strong community support isn’t unusual for Sylvan Lake, said Gordon Graham, first vice president and sergeant-at-arms of the Royal Canadian Legion Sylvan Lake.

“Any Veterans’ Week activities in this town go very well,” he said. “We had great participation with just excellent community support and involvement.”

A luncheon for veterans held at the Legion and the Remembrance Day ser-vice at the Multiplex were both well attended. Graham estimates the latter attracted about 1,200 people.

During that service, 92-year-old WWII veteran William Baird was awarded the rank of Knight of the French National Order of the Legion of Honour for his role in the liberation of France.

The once-in-a-lifetime presentation was undoubtedly a highlight of the day, Graham feels.

“The presentation was unique in that it was not only 70 years in the making, but it will not again be seen in the life-times of those in attendance,” he said.

At the age of 20 in 1942, Baird enlisted in the Royal Canadian Air Force. He served in Germany, England, Belgium, Holland and France before being honourably discharged in 1946. He joined the Royal Canadian Legion’s Forestburg branch that same year before eventually transferring to the Sylvan Lake branch in 1993.

Baird still participates in and attends Legion activities and events, although declining health has made it increas-ingly difficult to so recently.

Over the years, he’s volunteered extensively in branch activities, includ-ing the Poppy Campaign, which Graham said was a success again this year.

Although final numbers hadn’t been tallied by press time, early indications showed the campaign was on track to either meet or exceed those of last year.

And that’s just one of many positives the Royal Canadian Legion’s Sylvan Lake branch has to move forward with.

Gordon said the branch has recruit-ed a number of new members recently, making numbers the strongest they’ve been in years.

Nonetheless, more members are always needed, he said.

“We’re up at a level that we haven’t been to for the last several years, which is really positive,” he said. “The objective isn’t to recruit people, but it is to encour-age people to participate in the Legion and support what the aims and objec-tives of the Legion are.

“The more people you have, the more you have to participate in these various activities.”

With Veterans’ week having con-cluded, the Royal Canadian Legion in a media release stated it would now con-tinue its efforts to provide service to Canadian veterans year-round.

“The family has always been considered one of the most important institutions in many cul-tures, ideally providing its members with their fundamental needs for safety, food, affection, intimacy, and socialization. In fact, conflict is inevitable in families and violence is all too often pervasive.”

In their daring analysis of family violence and abuse, Gelles and Straus (1988) assert: “You are more likely to be physically assaulted, beaten, and killed in your own home at the hands of a loved one that in any place else, or by anyone else in our society.” They conclude that, “Violence in the home is not the excep-tion we fear; it is all too often the rule we live by. Cultures can promote victim-victimizer, violent, or blame systems, or they can promote respectful relationships among its members who in turn make a sound commitment to resolve conflicts non-violently.”

Victim blaming is one of the barriers that places survivors in greater danger. This atti-tude marginalizes the victim/survivor, and makes it more diffi-cult to trust and come forward; it also rein-forces the abuser’s attitude that the vic-t i m / s u r v i v o r deserved what hap-pened to them.

One of the main reasons we tend to blame the victim is because if we can make excuses for the behaviour, we can tell ourselves it will not happen to us, because I am not like them. This reaction does nothing to help the victim, and further isolates them.

We need to change our view and lan-guage to help bring down this barrier. Some things that we can do right now are: challenge victim-blaming statements when you hear them; do not agree with abusers’ excuses for why they abuse; let survivors know that it is not their fault; hold abusers accountable for their actions — do not let them make excuses like blaming the victim, alcohol, or drugs for their behav-iour; acknowledge that survivors are their own best experts and provide them with resources and support; and avoid

JACKIE LAROCQUESPECIAL TO SYLVAN LAKE NEWS

It was a frosty day in Whitecourt when the HJ Cody Lakers took on the Whitecourt Cats on Saturday. The bat-tle was for the right to move on to pro-vincial finals.

The start of the game was vaguely familiar, except it was the Cats that scored the first touchdown in the first minute of the game, starting the score-board at 7-0 for the Cats.

Tyrese and Landon eked down the field toward the end zone, giving Seth Blagen the opportunity to kick a field goal and bring the score to 7-3. Dylan Keller gained possession of the ball to run it down the field. From there, Landon Rosene stretched it out for a touchdown and Seth got the convert, bringing the score to 7-10 for the Lakers.

The Cats stepped up to the plate and, even with Carter Theriault and Sulley Larocque diving, tripping and sit-spinning Cats, Whitecourt managed to get to their end zone. The Lakers defence line pushed against the Cats offence line in a battle of strength and will. But finally the Cats line broke through, putting the score at 14-10 for the Cats.

Skylar passed to Landon who ran a first down. Lordy, lordy, Kyle Eckenswiller nabbed a 40-yard pass from Skylar. Another pass to Landon, who turned on the wheels for another touchdown, bringing the score to 17 for the Lakers (after Seth nailed the con-vert) and 14 for the Whitecourt Cats.

Back and forth it went. Sulley Larocque slammed Cat after Cat. Dylan Keller dove and caught any Cat within his reach. Matthew Bossert and Chase Elwood had fun making Cat sand-wiches. With the Cats at the five-yard line in their end zone, the Lakers defence became an impenetrable wall, and try as they might, they couldn’t break through.

Passing to Landon, then to Kyle, then to Tyrese, Skylar’s passes were true. But the Cats didn’t let the Lakers get ahead. Whether it was through tal-ent or fluke, the Cats took possession and ran the ball down the field for a touchdown and convert, bringing the score 21-17 for the Cats.

Landon Gyori pressured receivers to

keep missing passes, while Kyle Eckenswiller tripped and grabbed a Cat or two. Seth Blagen managed another field goal, bringing the score to 21-20 going into the second half.

The second half saw the competi-tion increase between these two well-matched teams. Fumbles, recoveries, possession, passes and tackles, back and forth, these boys were warring in a fair game absent of nit picking, sucker punches and sneaky shots. It was just a good, clean football game.

Kyle Eckenswiller, Landon Rosene and Sulley Larocque played both offence and defence, as did several of the linemen, giving all they had to the game. Dylan Keller had his eye trained on #77 of the Cats, preventing him from running anywhere in the second half. Ryan Arnold was able to get his hands on the ball, and Austin Ilcissin made a few Cats eat grass. The Cats got in another field goal to bring the score up 24-20.

The Lakers gave everything they had, but the Cats wouldn’t give an inch. The last five minutes were a frenzy of activity on the field as the pressure increased for the Lakers trying to get a touchdown and the Cats trying to increase their lead.

Josh Rideout twisted his back leap-ing over a Cat and was escorted off, the game finished for him. Skylar Selk got sacked hitting the ground head first, ending the game for him in the final seconds. Sulley Larocque received mul-tiple helmets to his knee, and although finished the game, needed help to the bus. All three are healing.

But it just wasn’t meant to be. With another field goal and a safety point, the final score was 28 for the Whitecourt Cats to 20 for the Lakers.

The season is now over for the Lakers, but they remain league champi-ons and can now heal from the last few games before snowboarding season begins.

For many of them, this was their last high school football game. Some of them are planning to continue playing football either at university or with junior teams, but whatever they decide, it is assured they will succeed — just as they did in football.

Congratulations on a well-played season.
