One of Drumheller’s local restaurants is be-ing thrust into the na-tional spotlight soon and they’re ready for their close up. Bernie and the Boys will be featured on You Gotta Eat Here, a Food Network show that pro-fi les small eateries across Canada. Bernie Germain, own-er and chef of Bernie and the Boys is excited to be on the show. “Th ey asked me if I wanted to be on the show and I was like, ‘who

says no to that?’” said Germain. Th e local restaurant came to the attention of producers via Urban Spoon, a website where bloggers can rate and re-view restaurants. Bernie and the Boys currently has a 92 per cent rating on the site. Germain was initially contacted last February in regards to appearing on the show. “Th ey found us on Ur-ban Spoon and there had been a few people who told them about us. Th ey sent us a questionnaire we had to fi ll out, which took like three hours.

Th en we had to send in a video and interview. Th ey really liked what we were doing here and gave us the go-ahead,” said Germain. Th e shoot begins on November 8 with a day focused on Germain in the kitchen with You Gotta Eat Here host John Catucci. “On the 8th, they want us to be in the kitchen, so I’ll be showing John how we cook the food. I’ll demo some of our most outrageous things, like the Mammoth Burg-er and the Megasaurus Pizza. Th ey want me to bone out a turkey, be-cause they heard that’s how we do our club-houses. It’s something that’s not done usually,” said Germain. Th ere will also be a few surprises in store for Ca-tucci when he shows up for the shoot. “He’s not a chef, he’s a comedian. I’m going to have a lot of fun with him for sure. I’ve got some fake hick teeth, so I’m defi nitely going to pop those bad boys when I greet him,” said Germain. “He’s defi nitely going to have to do the Blair Wing Project. If that’s not hot enough, we have hotter. We have Navajo peppers and scorpion peppers, which are the hottest peppers in the world.” On November 9, the

fi nal day of shooting, the restaurant will be open and patrons interviewed about their experience at Bernie and the Boys. “People can order their food and then John

will sit down with them and ask them about what they ordered,” said Ger-main. “So, come down, have some great food and you could be on TV.”

Th e Board and management of Badlands Ambulance Ser-vices Society have announced they are divesting the operation of the local ambulance service, turning it over to Alberta Health Services (AHS). Th ey made the announcement following an emergency meeting on Th ursday, October 4. Ambulance service will continue in the area, only in the future it will not be the Society oper-ating the service. “After a year of discussing with AHS, it was decided that with all the budgetary restrictions that were to be a part of the fi ve year contract as well as the added issue of our staff voting to become a union shop with Health Sciences As-sociation of Alberta, the board came to this disappointing deci-

sion,” said a press release from the Society signed by chairman Ben Armstrong. “Your board, along with the administration feel that the ad-

vanced service that you, our customers, have become used to could not be maintained with the budgetary restrictions that would be in place upon signing a new ‘not for profi t’ contract with AHS.” Th e board assures that services will not be un-interrupted during the transition, which could take up to six months to complete. “We are committed to work with AHS to en-sure a smooth transition, into either a direct services by AHS or a ‘for profi t,’ either of which could take up to six moths to complete. Th e Badlands Ambulance Services Society has

been operating the service since 2006.

Bernie Germain, owner and chef of Bernie and the Boys, is getting ready for prime time. The local Drumheller res-taurant will be featured on an episode of You Gotta Eat Here, a Food Network Show that profi les Canadian res-taurants. Shooting for the show is being done on Novem-ber 8 and 9, with residents encouraged to stop by on the 9th to grab some food and have a chance to appear on national television.

St. Anthony’s students shatter Terry Fox goalLast Thursday, students from St. Antony’s school participated in the nation wide Terry Fox National School run day. Students had a great time during the run, but the real goal was to raise money for cancer research. The fundraising goal this year was set at $5,000. Students went light years above and

beyond, raising a whopping $7,487. Pictured are the school’s top fundraisers; (back, l-r) Maureen Pe-ters, Angelina Stanger, Emma Doyle, Lucas Aulen-back, Gavin Makse, (front) Kira Kostelecky, Sophia Kolafa, Asli Doel and Colton Seely.

Michael James | inSide Drumheller

Veterans in Canada will be honoured in a brand new way on Remembrance Day of this year. Th e Royal Canadian Le-gion is building a Virtual Wall of Honour and Remembrance to honour all deceased veterans in Canada. Th e Virtual Wall will be unveiled during the National Re-membrance Day Ceremony, organized by the Legion. Large screens will display the Virtual Wall prior to the start of the actual ceremony and in ceremonies in the years to come. As a way to honour their relatives and friends who have served Canada, Canadians are invited to forward a photo-graph of a deceased veteran, along with their name, years of service, element or force to which the departed belonged or regiment/unit. Any deceased veteran, including those who belonged to the Merchant Navy or Ferry Command, whose death was attributable to any cause before or after they served (World War II, Korea, peace support missions, Afghanistan, accidental death in Canada) will be honoured. Photos can be sent by mail to Dominion Command, 86 Aird Place, Ottawa, ON, K2L 0A1. Contributors are asked not to send originals, because they cannot be returned. Photos can also be submitted electronically to Remember-ingTh [email protected] or [email protected]. Drumheller and area residents wishing to submit a vet-eran to be honoured electronically are welcome to come down to Th e Drumheller Mail offi ces on Highway 9 South for assistance. Staff will help scan photos and submit the veteran to be honoured.

The Nacmine Community Park has been slowly transforming over the years to best serve the community, thanks to the eff orts of the small crew of volunteers with the Nacmine Hall Association. Residents are

encouraged to volunteer with their local Association to help keep areas, such as the Nacmine Park, maintained and improve.

inSide photo by Michael James

Michael James| inSide Drumheller

One of the most impor-tant areas in any communi-ty is the local park. It pro-vides a place for children to play and families to be together. Th e Nacmine Commu-nity Hall Association is working on enhancing the Nacmine Community Park even more. To do that, the Nacmine Association is asking for residents help in maintaining the park. “Th ere’s only about half a dozen of us. We could use some help,” said Jim Decore, with the Nacmine Com-munity Hall Association. “People assume the Town does everything, but...it’s all done by volunteers.” One of the major tasks done by the Nacmine Asso-ciation is ensuring the skat-ing rink is well maintained and clearing off snow. Th e rink is widely used during

the winter. “Th e skating rink, we’ve had nothing but great com-ments. Kids come out from Carbon, Orkney, farms, and Drumheller to skate. We have Dragons out here skating until the lights go out at night,” said Decore. Plans are in the works to add a new swing set to the park. If all goes well, the swing set should be com-plete this fall. “Th e swing set is the pri-ority right now. Th ere used to a swing set here with four swings. We used to put up two telephone poles with a pole across and at-tached the swings to that, but now things have to be safer,” said Decore. “An eight foot high swing set with four swings is about $7,000. Th ey’re not cheap, because the set has to be approved, the base approved, and they have to have a certain type of gravel.”

Th e Nacmine Commu-nity Hall Association was able to secure funding to help pay for the installa-tion. To raise money for projects, the Nacmine As-sociation hosts pancake breakfasts, bingo nights, and applies for grants. Th e Town of Drumheller has also provided work-in-kind on projects. Next year, plans include adding shrubs and planting trees along the lanes. Th e result would be a greener and more inviting space. In previous years, the Nacmine Association has raised money for and con-structed the new play-ground, skating rink, and skate shack at the park. Th e rink and shack cost $52,000 and $30,000, respectively. Anyone wishing to get involved and help keep the Nacmine Park a place for residents to enjoy for years to come are encouraged to contact the Nacmine Com-

munity Hall at 403-823-4383. Members of other com-munities can also contact their local Community Association to help keep Drumheller’s parks going

strong. “Th e Drumheller com-munity is so unique, be-cause it stretches over 20 kilometres from Nacmine to East Coulee. In between you get all the little com-

munities,” said Decore. “Each one has a communi-ty association that works in conjunction with the Town to keep these areas main-tained.”

Th e committee that took the lead in celebrat-ing the centennial of coal mining in the valley are getting closer to erecting a permanent memorial to the miners who died working in the valley coal industry. It is also a step closer to having a giant mural by a local artist who has a little coal dust under his fi ngernails. Marcel Deschenes is working on a mural that will be displayed along side the Miner’s Memo-rial in the park beside the Civic Centre. He has been working for a couple of weeks by the wash house at the Atlas coal mine. While he has many more hours left to put in to the work, it is coming from a familiar place. As a young artist, he came though the valley with his wife about 35 years ago in a friend’s canoe on a fi ve-day trip from Red Deer on the river. At the time he was living in Calgary and studying art. “We camped by the river and had just a tarp, it was magical,” he re-calls. Th ey were not able to camp near Drumheller, so they fl oated down to East Coulee, A commu-nity of miners and farm-ers. “We just fell in love with it, people were still living a wholesome life, with gardens, and no one locked their doors,” he said. “By the time we were heading back to Calgary we were think-ing about getting a place out here.” He said a few miners had their eyes out for a place for Deschenes and eventually he was of-fered a home. Once settled in the fi rst order of business was to fi nd work, and 35 years ago at the Atlas Coal Mine was still open. “To me it was “Just be

cool and don’t get hurt,” he said adding that as a 30 year old, he was young, and the old min-ers looked out for him. One of the fi rst things he had to do was put a huge heavy shaker screen back in place. Th e old guys watched him carefully as heaved the steel in to place. When he completed the task they all laughed and said he was hired. He put in two win-ters, loading boxcars and driving truck. He said he felt spiri-tually fulfi lled in East Coulee. While the com-munity was in a slump with an aging popula-tion and the industry sighing is last breath, the people were generous and giving. Th e young couple became a family and were welcomed with open arms. Th ey never lacked a baby sitter. Later Deschenes be-came part of a move-ment to preserve and re-store the heritage of the community. He recalls after the mines were closed the site was left to decay. Despite that, the history was com-pelling that bus loads of foreign tourists who visited the Royal Tyr-rell Museum also came through East Coulee and tromped around. He felt compelled to show them around. He as also one of the founders of the Dinosaur Valley Historical Society and worked many years on preserving area ar-tifacts. Th e Society op-erates the East Coulee School Museum, as well as other items in the area of historical signifi cance. “I thought, wow, aban-doned school, aban-doned mines, wouldn’t that be great some day. When I left working here (the Atlas), I thought this has got to be a museum some day. Th ere are 125 mines and we are not go-ing to do something?” Fast forward to today, the young and “artis-tic” newcomer to the

community could now be considered an old timer. Th e community went from a hardscrab-ble mining town on the verge of extinction, to an eclectic thriving com-munity of artists, retir-ees and young families. His mural is com-prised of 10 four foot by eight foot panels all done in charcoal, and then sealed to protect it from the elements. Deschenes said the black and white mural will encompass the diff erent eras of min-ing. It is connected with a central image of a pony cart at the mouth of a mine. “I am putting in the new and the old so you can see on one side the guy is wearing a mod-ern helmet, and the background is guys with campus caps and the early beginnings. I am trying to put the whole package together of time gone by,” he said. Th e Miner’s memorial is slated to be unveiled on November 10. While he fi gures the mural won’t quite be ready in time, he will continue to toil with his memories and his work.

BIRTHANNOUNCEMENT

We usually put a lot of eff ort into our Thanksgiving feast. But if we end up with a houseful for the weekend, some good brunch ideas are good to have on hand. Here are a couple easy and dif-ferent dishes I made at the cabin this summer.

The waffl e-wich is simply as pictured. Place bacon, cheese, fried or poached egg between 2 cooked waffl es. If you use fro-zen waffl es, that makes it all the more laid-back. You can pre-cook the bacon to hurry things

up and have one less pan to wash, too.

When I have company, I try to spend as little time as possible in the kitchen.

This potato-crusted quiche went over very well. I now prefer this over a regular crust, too. If you have a mandolin, that makes the potato slices even and nice and thin.Use 2 medium russet potatoes to slice into thin rounds. Toss with a little olive oil and salt and pep-per, then place on two baking sheets (in a single layer). Bake to soften, but not brown (about 10-15 mins at 450). Line a 9 inch pie pan with the potato going around the edge fi rst, overlapping a bit. Have them standing up so they stick out above the rim. Then, line the bottom of the pan. Fill with your

favorite quiche recipe – eggs, milk, chives, cheese and any oth-er fi lling you like (mushrooms, ham, crab, etc.). Save a little cheese to sprinkle on top. Bake at 350 until set – about 50 mins. Let stand for about 15 mins be-fore slicing.

Serve either of these with some nice tomato slices or fresh fruits and that should keep everyone happy until turkey time!

Remember to count yourblessings and give thanks.

A movie opening in Calgary on October 17 has a distinctly Drum-heller fl avour. In fact much of the talent be-hind the production is based in the valley. Later this month Get-tin’ In, an admittedly crude teen comedy will be opening at Canon Meadows Th eatre. Th is is the fi rst major pro-duction of Jason Wan Lim, and many of the formative teen years experiences he draw on came from high school days in the valley. “Ironically, although the feature wasn’t shot there, Drumheller seems to have a major impact on my artistic mode. Th e feature has recollections and mem-ories of my life from Drumheller,” said Wan Lim. An Asian character in the movie draws on Wan Lim’s experience as a youngster of Asian descent growing up in a small primarily Cauca-sian community. “Some of that does factor in for sure,” he said, adding that the fi lm has a light take on these issues. “We don’t go very deep, we are a teen comedy and my investor hired me on to do a teen comedy that is market-able, and that is what we aimed at,” said Wan Lim.

Th e Drumheller con-nection doesn’t end there. While Wan Lim wrote and directed the fi lm, Josh Brennand helped develop the story. Jon Sheppard, Brennand and Derek Losoncy co-produced the production, and his sister Tanya is a produc-er, production designer and composer for the project. All four appear in the fi lm. “I graduated in Drum-heller, so did many peo-ple in the fi lm,” said Wan Lim. Th e fi lm follows some typical teen movie mo-tifs including awkward young lust and love, and growing up. Wan Lim admits it’s not for every-body, but is confi dent it will appeal to it target demographic. Wan Lim says right now getting everything ready for it’s a lot of work. “As the day draws near it will be more excit-ing,” he says, adding the four night screening is a chance for its target au-dience to see the fi lm. One hurdle for any fi lm is to secure distri-bution, and he says the have some strong inter-est from companies to get he fi lm to a wider audience He is grateful for the experience making this movie. “It wasn’t the movie I originally wrote, but I enjoyed it. It was prob-

ably the most fun I had in my life being on the set and working with the crew, cast and pro-ducers. At the end of the day, whether it is the genre that you pick, to have creative control over the project means a lot,” said Wan Lim Wan Lim explains Gettin’ In is part of the three fi lm deal, and he is looking forward to the projects ahead. Th e fi lm premiers at Canyon Meadows Cin-ema on October 17 on 7 p.m., and runs Octo-ber 18, 22 and 24 at 7:15 p.m.

When one in eight women in Alberta will be diagnosed with breast can-cer in their lifetime, it might be time for you screen test. Screen Test is Alberta Health Services’ mammog-raphy service, and is part of the Alberta Breast Cancer Screening Program. Its mo-bile unit will be in Drum-heller later this month providing the simple but important screening. According to AHS, Screen Test provides high qual-ity screening mammography and breast health education. Screen Test has consistently exceeded international stan-dards for the early detection of breast cancer.

Breast cancer is primar-ily a female health issue, although it can develop in men. More than three quarters of women diag-nosed are over the age of 50. While a family history can increase the risk, 80 per cent of women diagnosed have no family history. Th e service is avail-able without a referral to women aged 50-59 with no breast problems who have not had a mammography in the last 12 months, do not have implants or a history of breast cancer. For women ages 40-49 a referral is needed. Screen Test will be in Drumheller from October 26 to November 22. To book an appointment, call 1-800-667-0604.

A Drumheller area woman is to be fea-tured in a well-known cuisine magazine for her part in supporting friends through her cooking. Lori Stefanishion, who writes Food For Th ought for inSide Drumheller, was in Vancouver for a pho-to shoot for Healthy Cooking magazine. It was for an article that is to appear dur-ing Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

Th e article focuses on her “Cocktails for the Cure” parties. “It was fun and dif-ferent,” she said of the photo shoot. She fi g-ured it would be quick, but it took a good part of the day. She also had to whip up a couple of her appetizers for the photos. She explains she is a fi eld editor for Taste of Home magazine and has appeared in the magazine. Her recipes have also ap-peared in their publi-cations. Last year she was featured in Taste

of Home magazine with her Christmas entertaining ideas, and it was passed along to Healthy Cooking. Th e “Cocktails for the Cure” were parties she held with Heather Guterson in memory of Heather’s mother Th eresa Hamilton, who died of Breast cancer. “When they lost her to breast cancer, this is when this got underway. She (Th e-resa) passed away at this time of year and it was always a hard time for Heather, so doing these things helped,” said Stefanishion. She and Guterson were in the photo shoot and the donned pink aprons with the breast cancer logo, which were prepared spur of the moment by Debbie Grande. Healthy Cooking has a largely American

Audience, but it is dis-tributed internation-ally. It is a product of Reiman Media Group. Heather has since moved to Vancouver and the Cocktails for

the Cure have fallen by the wayside. Stefanish-ion said they are look-ing at reviving the tra-dition in Calgary this year. Th e article in Healthy

Cooking is expected to appear in the Octo-ber/November issue and should be released during the last week of September.

A crew of Drum-heller racers once again showed their need for speed in September at the Southern Alberta (SOAB) Motocross fi nal race in Brooks. Victoria James entered into the 50cc 7 to 8 year old event. Facing some stiff competition, James placed third in her divi-sion. In the 65 cc PeeWee division, Barett Chris-tensen took fi rst place, while Spencer James was help ensured Drumhell-er dominance by taking second place. “Barett had an amaz-ing weekend as well. He pulled the hole shot in his 65cc moto and con-tinued to win 1st place. Currently Barett is 1st in 65cc in the series,” said Sherry Christensen. Th e two also com-peted in the 85 cc 7 to

11 race and placed third and fourth, respectively. Th ere was some tough competition in the 85 cc 12 to 16 category, but Drumheller came out on top. After the fi rst race for the event, Decklin Christensen had sped his way into second place. Not content with sec-ond, Christensen went full throttle and, with a blistering fi nish, placed fi rst in both the second race and overall in the event. Dustin Fooks was in the same event. Th ough he didn’t place on the podium, he had a strong showing. Decklin and Fooks also competed in the 85 cc 12 to 16 super mini event. After the fi rst race, Decklin came in fourth and Fooks sixth. Th e two stepped it up for the second race. Decklin came in second, while Fooks raced into fi rst place. Overall, the

Dustin Fooks fl ys into a fi rst place fi nish in the second race of the super mini mo-tocross event in Brooks on September 9. Many of Drumheller’s fi nest motocross

riders dominated the fi eld in the various events, including fi rst place fi nishes by Barett Christensen, Decklin Christensen, and Ben Fooks.

boys placed third and second, respectively. “Th is was the fi rst time Dustin won 1st place in

supermini. Th e DORVA crew was cheering him on loudly from the side lines. Now that’s how

to fi nish off the season,” said Sherry. In the Vet Master event, Ben Fooks took

home fi rst place. In addition to the rac-es, Decklin and Barrett had a chance to learn from two of the top rid-ers in Canada. “Th e boys were 2 of 11 riders in Western Canada invited to a free school. Th ey spendt two full days with Dusty Klatt and Jeremy Meda-glia learning corner, starts and proper rider position. It was a oppor-tunity of a lifetime,” said Sherry. Th e Brooks SOAB Motocross event was the last of the season. Th e season offi cially comes to a close on Oc-tober 20 at the SOAB Motocross awards ban-quet being held here in Drumheller. Now that the fi nal race has run, riders will spend the winter undoubtedly itching to get back on the track and feel the rush only motocross can provide.
