Administration fi ne tunes survey

for residentsMichael James | InSide Drumheller

At the Committee of the Whole meeting on October 31, 2011, members of coun-cil discussed the feasibility of public transit in the Drum-heller Valley. Th e closest notion of public transportation in the Valley at the moment is the Valley Bus, a non profi t society mandated to help transport the elderly and disabled. Th e bus, rather than having routes, is dis-patched directly to users who request transportation. Plans to implement public transit in Drumheller have re-mained in park for some time. However, the Town of Drum-heller is shifting gears. Town administration is in the process of fi ne tuning a survey to be sent out to Valley residents to determine if and what servic-es residents would desire from any public transit service. “Whether there are enough people who would use it, that’s what we don’t know,” said Councillor Tom Zariski. “We encourage everyone to take part in the survey.” Th e initial plan would be to have two routes. One would run between Nacmine and downtown Drumheller. Th e second would travel between Midland and downtown. Th ere would be a number of stops along the way for each route. However, other routes would be considered. “Depending on the survey results we may have a route to East Coulee,” said Zariski. “We need input from resi-dents to give us direction.” Th e aim of the public transit

service would be to accommo-date people who are limited in their ability to travel by not having access to a vehicle. At this point, the proposed ser-vice would not be a replace-ment for a daily commute.

“Th e transportation routes we have planned are probably not conducive for people going to and from work,” said Zariski. “It’s more for people who want to go downtown occasionally and if they don’t have a vehicle

they can plan their schedule around the routes.” Another aspect of the pub-lic transit service would be to accommodate tourists. Routes could be schedule be-tween hotels and tourist at-tractions. Getting tourists on board could alleviate park-ing problems during the busy weekends and help subsidize the service. Th ere would be a few job opportunities, depending on how widespread public transit becomes. Drivers, mechanics, cleaners, and more would be needed to keep things operat-ing smoothly. Fees for bus use have not been discussed as of yet, but one thing is certain, taxpayers would foot some of the bill. During the Committee of the Whole meeting the ques-

tion was raised as to whether the proposed service would be run by the Valley Bus Soci-ety. Council members felt that the Town should lead eff orts. “Th e Valley Bus Society has been eff ective for many years,” said Zariski. “But, it’s mandate is to transport seniors and dis-abled persons.” Were public transportation given the green light, it would not replace the Valley Bus. Th e Valley Bus service would continue to run. As of this time, public tran-sit in Drumheller is only in the research phase and the plans mentioned herein are subject to the desires of residents. Th e Town of Drumheller will soon be sending out surveys and any input could shape the route public transit takes in the future.

Town seeks direction on public transit

The Valley Bus has been providing seniors and those with disabilities transportation for years. To complement the service, Town Council is consider-ing adding public transportation to the Valley. Sur-

veys will be sent out to residents soon and all are encouraged to provide feedback.

A serving federal pris-oner accused of overpow-ering a female corrections offi cer and dropping her off by the side of a rural road east of Bowden while returning from a day trip, was in Red Deer provin-cial court on Wednesday, November 2. Donald Junior Fowler, 32, made a brief appear-ance on closed-circuit television from the Red Deer Remand Centre.Duty counsel Mollie McVey told Judge David Plosz that Fowler had ap-plied for legal aid and re-quested a two-week ad-journment. Fowler was being es-corted back to Drumheller Institution by the correc-tions offi cer after the man convicted of second-de-gree murder was given a day pass to visit his family in Buck Lake, 15 minutes southeast of Drayton Val-

ley on Oct. 18. RCMP allege that Fowl-er, whose sentence started in July 1997, faked being sick and then overpow-ered the corrections of-fi cer by choking her with his hands and a seatbelt. He is accused of tying her up and putting her in the back seat of the van. She was eventually dropped off near Second-ary Hwy 587 about 40 km east of Bowden. Olds RCMP found Fowl-er about 45 minutes later sitting in the van that was parked about 15 km east of Bowden. Fowler has been charged with escaping lawful cus-tody, assaulting a peace of-fi cer, kidnapping, forcible confi nement, theft of a motor vehicle over $5,000, dangerous driving, and at-tempting to choke, stran-gle or suff ocate someone. He returns to court in Red Deer on Nov. 18.

A man who was discov-ered in the possession of about 15 pounds of mari-juana was placed under a conditional sentence or-der of 16 months. Steven Michael Brausse appeared in provincial court in Drumheller on Friday, October 28 to be sentenced on the charge of possession of drugs for the purposes of traffi cking. Th e court heard how, on October 20, 2010 po-lice made a traffi c stop on

Highway 9 east of Morrin corner after the offi cer no-ticed the licence plate on the vehicle stopped was not well illuminated. When the offi cer exited his own vehicle, he noted the strong smell of fresh marijuana emanating out of the stopped SUV. Th e search of the vehicle re-vealed a large box with about 15 pounds of mari-juana, of which, about six-pounds was bud while the rest was stems and leaves. Th ere were also items in the SUV associated with a

marijuana growing opera-tion. Defense for Brausse said his client was assisting a friend to harvest and dis-mantle a growing opera-tion, and this behaviour was out of character. A favourable presentence re-port was also provided. Th e Federal Prosecutor and defense agreed a con-ditional sentence order would be appropriate in the circumstances. Brausse is subject to an order where he is to live under house arrest for the fi rst six months of his sentence, and for the re-mainder of his 16 month sentence he is to abide by

a curfew from 7 p.m. to 3 a.m. Items seized in the stop have been forfeited

for disposal, and Brausse also received a mandatory fi rearm prohibition.

With the changing weather and reduced number of daylight hours the concern for pedestrian safety increases. During the month of November, Saferoads, an initia-tive of the Alberta Offi ce of Traf-fi c Safety will be extra vigilant that users of the roadways conduct themselves in such a manner to support the safety of pedestrians. Th e following are some recom-

mended safety tips: For drivers:• When approaching an intersec-tion or crosswalk be alert for pe-destrians.• Watch for vehicles stopped or slowing in the lane next to yours. Th ey may be yielding to a pedes-trian.• Stay alert and slow down on resi-dential streets and through school and playground zones.• Failing to yield to a pedestrian in

a crosswalk carries a fi ne of $575 plus 4 demerit points. For pedestrians:• POINT, PAUSE, and PRO-CEED. Be alert at intersections and always look out for danger when crossing the street.• Always use crosswalks and pe-destrian-activated signals when they are available and cross only at intersections if they are not.• Never jaywalk. Drivers are not anticipating pedestrians cross-ing in the middle of the street so they may not have enough time to avoid hitting you.• Make eye contact with drivers before you cross the street.• Be seen! Wear bright coloured or refl ective clothing especially when walking in low light or poor weather conditions.• Walk on the sidewalk. If there is no sidewalk, walk off the road, facing traffi c, staying as far away from the vehicles as possible.• If you are impaired, seek assis-tance and alternative transporta-tion. Alcohol is often a factor in serious pedestrian collisions. On average over one-third of pedes-trians in fatal crashes and 15 per cent in injury crashes had con-sumed alcohol prior to the colli-sion.• Pay attention! Remove head-phones; put away cell phones or other electronic devices when crossing the street.• Abide by traffi c signs and sig-nals. Th ey are in place to protect your safety. Both drivers and pedestrians are responsible for safety. Pedes-trians have the right of way in crosswalks, but pedestrians also have the responsibility to cross safely. From 2005 to 2009, on av-erage each year in Alberta, more than 40 pedestrians were killed and over 1250 were injured.

Valley Auto Recyclers are leading the way in environ-mental stewardship and have achieved a Gold Standard Designation from the Auto-mobile Recyclers of Canada (ARC). Chris and Lloyd Morgan have owned the business in the HyGrade Industrial Park just over a year. Th is was the fi rst time they tried for the national designation, and achieved an over 90 per cent compliance level to earn a gold standard. “It’s a nice pat on the back to get this on our fi rst try,” said Chris Morgan. Gold is the highest level of compliance. Th e designation assures the company is doing its part to re-sponsibly operate its business by adhering to environmental standards. Th is aff ects virtu-ally all aspects of the business.Th ese requirements begin as a car comes into the yard. Th is includes disposal of chemi-cals, oils and other harmful compounds. ARC has stan-dards for how a vehicle is dis-mantled, how parts are stored and how the land and water are protected. It takes account of inventory management and fi nal disposal of vehicles. “We’ve worked hard not to be a junk yard. We are a recy-cling facility,” said Chris. For the past year, the com-

pany has been improving the site, and at times, literally dig-ging cars out of the coulee. He said inspectors for ARC recognized their eff ort to do things the right way. Th is designation allows the company to expand its in-ventory and also further act as environmental leaders. In achieving the designation, Valley Auto Recyclers is now able to participate in programs such as "Cash for Clunkers" or "Retire Your Ride". Th ese programs are de-signed to take older vehicles, which contribute the most to air pollution, off the road for good. Th ese vehicles cannot be simply parted out like most acquisitions by a recycler. Vehicles that are 1995 and

younger can be completely re-cycled and parts can be sold. If cars are older than 1995, they cannot sell any part that would keep another car of the same vintage on the road me-chanically. Th is means they are not able to resell power train parts for example. “It is a pretty good way to control higher polluting ve-hicles,” said Chris. He adds these programs help build their inventory and give them the opportunity to sell newer parts. Chris said they are look-ing at other endeavours such as making the site a place for residents to dispose of used oil and are exploring a battery recycling program de-signed to raise funds for local charities.

but always welcome Th e 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of the year 1918. Th at is the time, day, month, and year that the fi ghting was called to an end in the war to end all wars. Th e actual instrument of armistice was signed at 5:00 a.m., but fi ghting was not ordered stopped until 11:00 a.m. Th e Great War, the War to End all Wars, was merely a prelude to the next great war, the Big One, World War II, but it’s World War I that gave us the poppy and Flanders Fields, two symbols we cling to, and use to memorialize all those who have served, and died in defence of their own, and those who could not defend themselves. In June 1915, a young Canadian soldier and physician, watched his friend die from mortal wounds incurred in battle. Th at death inspired the young medic to pen the immortal poem “In Flanders Fields.” Th e poppies we wear today are reminders of those mentioned in the fi rst line of Colonel John Mc-Crae’s poem, for in the fi eld of Flanders the poppies did indeed grow. Anybody know where Flanders is? Don’t feel bad if you don’t, because it doesn’t exist as a country. It is located on the coast of the North Sea, and is the Belgian provinces of East and West Flanders, and part of Northern France. Flanders saw much action in World War I, and soaked up much blood. Th e Village of Passchendaele is about fi ve miles northeast of the town of Ypres, where three major battles were fought. Th e fi nal stages of the third battle of Ypres were named for Passchendaele. Th ese battles were bloody, murderous, wasteful aff airs, with hundreds of thousands of men killed and wounded, try-ing to capture or defend several hundred yards, or a mile or two at best. Th ey showed the true wanton wastefulness of war, and especially that waged in the War to End All Wars. It was a war of attrition, the most insane of any type of war. Th row a mass of men into a meat grinder; send 10,000 troops across 100 yards of mud, shell holes, barbed wire and machine gun fi re. If half of them make it, they still have to fi ght to hold what they’ve crossed. It was insanity, and the generals who pursued such tactics should have been shot. (Strictly my opinion). Canadians fought as well or better than any British soldier in World War I. Canada’s baptism was in the fi re that was Th e Great War. We lost many good young men, with many more handicapped or crippled. We came through it. Understand that when I use “we”, I mean Canada, because I don’t know that I could or would want to be so tested. I remember, and thank those many men and women who had/have the courage to serve, and maybe die, in defence of their own, and those who can not defend themselves. I salute you, and wear my poppy with pride, and a little sadness. Remember Flanders.

SGT. Th omas Ricketts, VC: A Teenage Hero Th omas Ricketts, from White Bay, Newfoundland and Labrador, was not yet 16 when he joined the Royal Newfoundland Regiment to fi ght for the Commonwealth. On Oct. 14, 1918, his platoon was being severely battered by machine-guns during an advance near Ledgehem. Armed with a Lewis gun, Pte. Ricketts and his section commander attempted to outfl ank the Germans’ position but ran out of ammunition. Ricketts backtracked under fi re for more ammunition, then laid down such accurate cover-fi re that his platoon was able to advance unharmed and capture four fi eld guns, four machine-guns and eight prisoners. Th ough he served long before Newfoundland joined Canada, Ricketts is considered the youngest “Canadian” to be awarded the Victoria Cross. Ricketts also received the Distinguished Conduct Medal and the Croix du Guerre.

Frederick Fisher: Th e Hero from St. Catherines Due to his actions on April 22, 1915, St. Catharines, Ontario, native Lance-Cpl. Frederick Fisher became the fi rst Canadian to be awarded the Victoria Cross during the First World War. In 1915, Fisher was a machine-gunner with the 13th Battalion, Royal Canadian Highlanders Regiment, fi ghting near St. Julien in Belgium in the 2nd Battle of Ypres. To protect regimental artillery from being overrun, Fisher crawled to a forward position and broke up a German advance. Of the six men accompanying him, four were killed. Th e next day, while trying to set up a machine-gun to defend against German positions decimating his regiment ranks, Fisher was shot dead. His Victoria Cross was awarded posthumously.

Rosebud Th eatre has for years possessed the gifts of story tell-ing, entertainment, evoking emotions and inspiring. Th is Christmas they are also sharing “Th e Gifts of the Magi.” Th is musical is based on the classic O’Henry short story of

selfl ess giving and irresistible love. Mark St. Germain and Randy Courts took the simple story and created a tale of the hardship of a young couple in New York City facing the hus-tle, opulence and poverty of the berg, and a Christmas without snow. Cassia Schramm, recent grad-

uate of Rosebud School of the Arts,commnded he stage last season with roles in Oliver! and Th e Secret Garden. In Gift of the Magi she plays Della, one half of the young couple in their tiny fl at furnished with a shabby lit-tle couch. Jim, played by Aaron Krogman, who is also recog-nizable from the Rosebud stage

after playing roles in Fiddler on the Roof, Christmas on the Air and a Bright Particular Star, hits the pavement each morning in search of work. While his love for his young bride is unques-tioned, being part of a faceless, jobless mass is taking its toll on the young man with Christmas just days away especially when Jim has no means to buy a gift for his wife. Th ose who are touched by the simplicity of the original story would certainly be curious how a musical production could car-ry the fable without losing its charm. Rosebud succeeds. Th e fl avour of New York and all of its hustle is captured through a simple set and the versatility of “City Him” (Joel Stephanson) and “City

Her” (Laura Gillespie) who help set each scene. Mike Th iessen, through his homeless character “Soapy” provides comic relief and Natalie Gauthier as a news-paper boy provides a gentle nar-ration to keep the play moving. While much is added to the original story in the production, the emotion of the “two foolish children” whose sacrifi ces pale in comparison to their love, is not lost. One of Rosebud’s continual successes is bringing in the Christmas season with its fi nal production of the season. Year after year, the productions warm the heart of its audience, deliv-ering them their fi rst gift of the season.

Cassia Schramm and Aaron Krogman play Della and Jim Dillingham in Rosebud the-atre’s production of the Gifts of the Magi. The show runs until December 23.

What a beautiful fall we had!. It’s time sadly to say, to get everything put to bed for the winter cold. I always start with emptying my containers and cleaning them up so they will be ready to go for next year. Of course you always need a couple left for the winter arrangements. Clay pots especially need to be stored in a dry place over the winter and cleaned out soon enough to allow the moisture in the clay to evaporate. They are less likely to crack this way. Fountains, birds baths, anything to do with water needs to be scrubbed and stored in a dry area and if it’s possible put them somewhere like a heated garage. Some folks will put heaters in the ponds and warmers in the bird baths for the winter so all the birds are kept drinking and that’s excellent if you have the ability to do that. For my vegetable garden I simply take up all the old plant growth, corn stalks, etc. and throw them out or recycle what you can. Carrot tops, any of the fi ner stuff I will just work into the ground – this helps the soil out with a little extra organic material. I always like to open up the soil and air things out for the winter months, and then of course again in the spring before planting. In the fl ower gardens, of course the annuals get recycled, but a lot of the perennial material I will not compost to try and prevent mildew, fungus, aphid eggs, diseases of any kind from getting worse and spreading. I like to bury this stuff because there are some things that spread through the air when you burn them. I think the trees have more diseases than the perennials that travel this way, but I don’t like taking the chance. If the perennials are in a really exposed area then I may leave the old growth there to help insulate the plant for

the winter but if it’s really well established then I would clean it up. If it needs extra protection it’s some times better to mound up some mulch or peat moss. Most of our shrubs and a lot of our trees can be left until early spring to prune but if there are signs of disease and the shrubs have gone into dormancy for the winter I would tie a big ribbon on it so I am reminded in the early part of spring to prune it out. Black Rot, is one of the worst to spread by spores and is the most common because it aff ects most of our favourite trees; Apples, Cherries, Schubert Chokecherry and especially in town things that get planted closer and closer together. This fungus is defi nitely one that you don’t want to burn, also disinfect pruning tools after every cut and use a lime sulfur spray to apply to the cuts. This disease is best described as cat poop on a stick. Messy! There are lots of articles on-line to read about this one and others, but this one is one of the easiest to identify. So now that you know all about the ugly stuff , be sure to get some of those fall bulbs in the ground. I like to treat tulips like an annual that has to be planted in the fall. They are so rewarding in the spring. You can also force a lot of bulbs to bloom in doors to give you an early February show of color. It’s possible to layer the bulbs at diff erent depths in a container and have things blooming in the same container for an added touch and a little longer fl owering time. Bulbs usually come with directions right on the package as far as planting goes. Now that the ‘white stuff ’ has arrived, see my next article on how to bring some colour to your yard.

ARIES - Mar 21/Apr 20Aries, this week you'll need to oper-ate under the "use-it-or-lose-it" way of thinking. Don't sit on any resources, including your time. Get active and be productive.

TAURUS - Apr 21/May 21You may need to call in a few favors from friends, Taurus. There is a hurdle you need to get over and it likely will not get done alone. Pisces could be the person you seek.

GEMINI - May 22/Jun 21Gemini, sometimes others simply don't understand you, and deep down inside you may just like it that way. You continue to bring an air of mystery to the week.

CANCER - Jun 22/Jul 22Cancer, it will take some time, but you will fi nally be able to convince some-one to heed your advice. It will take all of your persuasive power to do so.

LEO - Jul 23/Aug 23Leo, avoid letting your guard down af-ter something falls in your favor. You will need to redouble your efforts to make sure things keep going swim-mingly.

VIRGO - Aug 24/Sept 22Virgo, it's wise to open your eyes a little wider and see where things are going right or wrong for you. Making the same choices over and over won't lead to progress.

LIBRA - Sept 23/Oct 23Libra, a change of scenery could help bring a new perspective to something that has been on your mind. Get out of town for a few days and enjoy the respite.

SCORPIO - Oct 24/Nov 22Scorpio, it's time to put that creative energy to good use. Now could be the time to spearhead a project that has your name written all over it. Start drawing up ideas.

SAGITTARIUS - Nov 23/Dec 21Sagittarius, there are plenty of ways to enjoy a wonderful birthday celebra-tion, but the most ideal could simply be surrounding yourself with family and friends this week.

CAPRICORN - Dec 22/Jan 20Take a cue from someone close that less is more when you're caught in the middle of a squabble, Capricorn. Keep your opinions to yourself for the time being.

AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18Aquarius, there may be a few bumps along the way, but this week fi gures to be peaceful and relaxing. Plus, your fi -nancial situation is steadily improving.

PISCES - Feb 19/Mar 20Pisces, use your cache of energy to plow through projects at work and free up some time for fun for the weekend into next week.

Th e DinoArt Committee is on its fi nal push for the season to complete its fundraising for its next endeavour. Th e DinoArt Committee of the Chamber of Commerce was struck this year with the mandate to create a sustainable way to re-store and maintain the approxi-mately 35 dinosaur statues and 20 murals throughout the town. Th ey also want to build on the image of the Dinosaur Capital Of Th e World by adding more dino-saurs. A herculean eff ort this sum-mer by volunteers has helped the committee achieve its goals. Virtually all the dinosaurs in the downtown have been repaired and painted, and so far, the com-mittee is very happy with the ef-fort and the results. “It has been huge, there has been lots of time spent refurbish-ing them,” said committee mem-ber John Shoff . He adds that while some have been critical of some of the more artistic renditions of the dino-saurs, Shoff said it makes sense as the dinosaur statues are not an accurate representation of dino-saurs to begin with. “Why make them look like they are scientifi cally accurate?” said Shoff . “I like the idea that they are not being painted to be dinosaurs, they are painted to be art work.” He said the next phase for the project is to purchase new sculp-tures for the core. Th ey are hop-ing to raise enough funds to add two new dinosaurs to the core. One site they are looking at is at the corner of 3rd Avenue and Centre Street near Gus’s Corner Restaurant. Although nothing is fi nalized, the committee has been in talks with Studio Y Creations to con-struct the sculptures. He said the company came to the valley to look at the project and have been very accommodating. Because they are in Calgary, they are available to help if there is a need for maintenance, unlike ordering a sculpture from overseas.

Shoff said the sculptures they are looking at are very durable, constructed with tubular steel right up to the fi ngertips. A body mould is then made over the frame and then they are fi nished with a very resilient epoxy resin, and then clear coated.

Th e DinoArt Committee has also received a donation of a Ty-rannosaurus Rex bust, built by Studio Y, from the Royal Tyrrell Museum. Th ey are looking at placing the bust in the area of the three-way stop at Centre Street and Railway Avenue. “We want to mount it on that building (Shoppers Drug Mart/ Café Ole) so it looks like the di-nosaur is crashing through the building,” said Shoff . “On the ce-ment pedestal in front of it there would be a few dinosaurs looking back and running away.” While they are hoping to get to work on these projects next spring, all of these eff orts are de-pendent on its fundraising. Th e committee is continuing to fund -raise until the end of this year. Shoff says they are about half way to the goal they want to reach to make the projects happen, and have received generous dona-tions from local individuals and businesses. Th ey have designed sponsor-ship packages to help the eff ort. Th e committee has also ben-efi ted from a matching program from the Drumheller and District Chamber of Commerce which will match, up to $10,000, dollar-for-dollar, until the end of 2011. For more information on the DinoArt project or to learn more on how to get involved, contact Shoff at 403-823-2983 or email [email protected]

Smiles for breakfast program

Drumheller Tim Hortons teamed up with Greentree School for the restaurant’s annual Smile Cook-ie campaign. From September 19 to 25, the restaurant sold smile cookies for $1 each, with the funds going to a local children’s charity of choice. The event was wildly successful raising $3,000. They chose to give the funds to the Greentree School breakfast program, which provides break-fast free to any student in need of a good meal to start the day. Greentree principal Chris Con-nell, left, accepts the donation from local Tim Hortons owner/operator Bob Carey.
