McHappy Day was another great success. On Wednesday, May 8, local personalties did their best to elicit smiles and sup-port for the Ronald McDonald Houses. $1 from every Big Mac, Happy Meal or McCafé beverage was donated to the great work of the charity. In the end, $4,274.70 was raised, surpass-ing last year’s total by over $1,100.

Simulation training ex-ercises to help shape the future design of ground ambulances with front-line staff from Alberta Health Services – Emer-gency Medical Services (AHS-EMS) were con-ducted in Drumheller last Th ursday. More than 100 EMS personnel from across Alberta are volunteer-ing with the Ambulance Design Research Project through the University of Calgary’s Ward of the 21st Century (W21C). As the fi rst study of its kind to be conducted in Canada, this province-wide initiative explores how EMS staff can best deliver care within the patient compartment of ambulances. Study fi nd-ings will infl uence and improve the safety, lay-out and functionality of future AHS ambulances. “Our goal is to ensure we are providing our staff with a safe, com-fortable workspace that will allow them to do their jobs as effi ciently as possible to improve patient safety and out-comes,” says Mike Plato, Acting Executive Di-rector of EMS business standards and opera-tions support. “Th is is a unique opportunity to observe the interactions between EMS practitio-ners within the patient

compartment of an am-bulance, while providing simulated patient care.” To create a realistic emergency scenario sim-ilar to those encountered on the job, EMS staff taking part in this emer-gency exercise will treat a simulation mannequin as their ‘patient’ as they provide care inside a moving ambulance. Re-searchers will use video and vision-tracking de-vices to observe and learn how treatment can be aff ected by the con-fi nes of an ambulance. “Our data collection will allow us to develop evidence-based design guidelines for future am-bulances,” says Jeff Caird, PhD, Human Factors and Simulation Lead, W21C. “Th e study focuses on effi ciency of care and the safety of health care pro-viders and patients.” Th rough surveys and interviews, AHS-EMS staff will also give writ-ten and verbal feedback to researchers about

their experiences work-ing in ambulances. Th e simulation exer-cises were from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Canadian Tire parking lot. Similar training exercises will be held across the province in the coming months. Th e study is a collabo-ration between AHS-EMS, W21C and mul-tiple other stakeholder groups within AHS. Funding for this study has been provided by the AUTO21 Network of Centres of Excellence (a Government of Canada automotive-sector re-search initiative), AHS and W21C.

Th e rugged hills of the Canadian Badlands, the sun-scorched bar-ren rock and the slicker-than-grease when wet bentonite is just what the doctor ordered to put a truck through its paces. Ford has arranged for the trucks and a gaggle of interested journalists to let us know how the trucks do. Th ey’ll also be telling the world a little more about the Drum-heller Valley. Next week, Ford, along with a contingent of writers, broadcasters and bloggers, will be de-scending on the valley. Th eir goal is to see how the new F150 pick-up truck can take on what the Badlands dishes out and to tell the story of the area. Christine Hollander, communications man-ager at Ford Canada is familiar with the valley after a cross-country trip nearly 15 years ago, and hasn’t forgotten it. “It’s something you don’t expect to see in

Canada, and I always told myself ‘this would be a great place for a truck program,’” said Hollander. In all, there will be 40 media personnel, includ-ing representatives from well-known outlets, in-cluding Driving Televi-sion, Motoring and Mo-torTrend magazine. She adds that while many on the junket are automo-tive journalists, there will be others who may write beyond just the

truck. Two separate groups will be arriving on May 13 and then on May 15. Th ey will be landing in Calgary and jumping aboard a new F150, and heading straight out to the Last Chance Saloon for dinner. Th e next day the jour-nalists will get a prod-uct presentation from the chief engineer of the truck Jackie DiMarco, and then will be at Di-nosaur Downs to put the

truck through all its pac-es; everything from pay-load, towing, off -road-ing, and a fuel economy challenge. Th ey will also get to see a little of the area. “Being in Drumheller ,obviously you can’t miss doing a tour of the Royal Tyrrell Museum, so part of the program is touring behind the scenes,” said Hollander. Last year Ford sold 106,000 trucks in Cana-da.

F150 versus the Badlands

Next week Canadian and American jour-nalists will be in Drumheller to take in

some sights and put the new Ford F150 through its paces.

An inmate will have 57 months to contemplate what went wrong with a plan to smuggle mor-phine into the Drumhell-er Institution. Eric Pearson was in Court of Queen’s Bench on Th ursday, May 2 to be sentenced for two counts of possession of drugs for the purposes of traffi ck-ing. Pearson was found guilty earlier this year and was in possession of 190 grams of marijuana and 20 - 199 milligram morphine pills.

Th e charges stem from and event on April 11, 2010, when minimum-security unit inmates Pearson and Ashley Yardley ventured into an out-of-bounds area. Pearson kept watch while Yardley retrieved the package, which con-tained the drugs. Offi cers in a mobile unit spot-ted them. Yardley was observed throwing the package on to the roof of a nearby building. Yardley was charged with possession for the purposes traffi cking but was found not guilty pre-vious to last week’s sen-

tencing. Federal Prosecutor Bill Herman argued for a 5-7 year sentence, outlining aggravating factors in-cluding his previous re-cord, the sophistication of the operation, and that it occurred in a federal institution. Justice C. M. Jones sentenced Pearson to a global sentence of fi ve years and six months. He gave Pearson credit for nine months and 21 days of pretrial custody, leaving approximately 57 months to serve.

Th e Drumheller RCMP continued their track record of stopping drugs moving along Highway 9. On April 25, at approximately 10 p.m., a vehicle was stopped on High-way 9 north of Drumheller for a minor vehicle infraction. Indicators associated with the trans-portation of illicit drugs were observed by the offi cer conducting the stop. Two males were arrested and the vehicle was searched. Th e search pro-duced six pounds of marijuana, which was located hidden in two suitcases in the trunk of the vehicle. One of the occupants claimed own-ership of the drugs and will be charged accordingly. Th e street value of these drugs is ap-proximately $40,000. Th e name of the accused cannot be released pending formal charges. RCMP describe him as 30 years of age and a resident of Calgary. He is to ap-pear in Drumheller Provincial Court on June 14 to answer to the charges laid against him. Th e accused has a previous criminal record. Th is amount of drugs is nowhere

near the amount found in the past on Highway 9. It is thought Highway 9 is being used to take drugs east to Sas-katchewan. “Most (of the drugs) aren’t coming through Drumheller. Th ey’re com-ing out of Calgary and using various highways,” said Drumheller RCMP Staff Sergeant Art Hopkins. “A lot of it comes down to the skills of the investi-gator. Constable Jones seems to have a knack for it and picks up on a lot of in-dicators. When time and circumstance permit, he’s out there, but, that’s not his only duty.” Th e Drumheller RCMP are not the only ones out on the highways at-tempting to intercept drugs. “Th e RCMP have roving interdiction units. Most of the time they’re in the mountains, but we’ve had them come in and do some work on Highway 9. About eight months ago, there was a big seizure by Hanna. Th at was them. Th ere are reports being submitted to district and division. Th ey use that in-formation with their other intelligence and try to plot the most productive times for the various highways,” said Hopkins. “Th ere are a lot of things be-ing done.”

A bid to amend Curtis Rideout’s charge from fi rst-degree murder to second-degree murder came up short in Court of Queen’s Bench last Th ursday. Rideout was charged in March 2012 with fi rst-degree murder in relation to the death of Linette Euteneier and

second-degree murder in relation to the death of his father Bruce Rideout. Last January, a prelimi-nary hearing was held and Judge Grieve ruled that Curtis Rideout be committed to stand trial as charged. Defense for Rideout, Hugh Sommerville, fi led an application asking that this be re-examined and that Rideout be tried for second-degree murder

in relation to the death of Euteneier. He argued there was no evidence of planning and delib-eration before the events leading to her death. Th e Honourable Mad-am Justice K.M. Horner heard the application on May 2 and disagreed. She dismissed the applica-tion. Rideout’s next date in Court of Queen’s Bench is June 27.

SpringFest begins to-night and the hype is build-ing for the high-calibre tal-ent scheduled to take the stage. Alongside powerhouses like Harry Manx and the Kirby Sewell Band are local artists, proud and excited to get the chance to play at SpringFest. “One of our mandates is to showcase local artists and up-and-comers,” said Brent Noland, producer of SpringFest. Darren Smylie, who was raised in Drumheller, is ex-cited for his fi rst chance to play at SpringFest. He’ll be performing material from his new album, Secondary Succession of Mind. “I’ve been going to SpringFest since I was 12-years-old. Now, I’m fi -nally playing. It’s going to be all original music for me. Th is will be the fi rst time I’ll be doing music from the album I wrote in December,” said Smylie.

Th e Drumheller Mail/in-Side Drumheller’s very own Devon Syvertsen is one of the local artists who will be making their SpringFest debut this year. “It feels great. I was surprised when I got the call. It’s really neat to fi -nally pursue that dream, I’ve been wanting to be in SpringFest for a long time,” said Syvertsen. “I’m going to take this opportunity to show off my original ma-terial. I’ll intersperse a few covers to fi ll space, which will be songs people prob-ably haven’t really heard around town.” Syversten has been re-cording original material since 2011 and is hoping to release his fi rst album at DinoFest in June. Th is year’s SpringFest will be the re-debut of Drumheller native Noel Spooner, who’s coming off a long hiatus after mov-ing back to Drumheller 13

years ago. “We were talking and he (Noland) had a cou-ple guitars lying around, so he asked me to sing a song. I did, and he sat back and said I was hired,” said Spooner. “I’m glad he got me out of my comfort zone.” Spooner had a long mu-sic career, which took her from Calgary, the North-west Territories, to Van-couver. She then lived in Grande Prairie briefl y and came back to Drumheller after a near death experi-ence with fl esh eating dis-ease. She’s excited to off er a huge range of music for SpringFest fans. “I have my songs picked, but I just have too many to choose from. It’s go-ing to be tough fi tting it in an hour. I’ve got some country, some rock, a little blues, and some originals,” said Spooner. Other local artists in-clude the Fire Coulee Ban-dits, Roadside Attraction, Cat Country Cougar Hunt-ers and Courtney Morse, Jessica Nelson, and Allen Rapadas with Alas, the Ocean. SpringFest has been picking up momentum over the past few years, with the number of per-formers wishing to play for the festival growing.

“It’s fan-freakin-tastic! Th e lineup this year, like every year, just gets better. I had 95 applications for 44 slots. We had to shut down the applications a month early. I already have received an application for 2014,” said Noland. Th e musicians volunteer their time and all proceeds go towards maintaining

and improving the East Coulee School Museum. “Th e musicians are volunteering their craft. Th ey’re spending their own gas money, so we’re incred-ibly grateful to them. It’s really humbling,” said No-land. SpringFest begins on Fri-day, May 10 and lasts until Saturday, May 12.

ARIES - Mar 21/Apr 20Aries, something irresistible keeps grabbing your atten-tion. Don’t overindulge too much or you will regret the decision later on. Exercise moderation.

TAURUS - Apr 21/May 21Taurus, you may be tempted to run away from a challeng-ing situation, but it is in your best interest to hunker down and face the problem. You won’t be going it alone.

GEMINI - May 22/Jun 21Gemini, you seem to quickly conquer tasks that others struggle with. It could be thanks to your ability to fo-cus, but look over your work to make sure it’s correct.

CANCER - Jun 22/Jul 22Cancer, while many things come easily to you, there is one particular situation that continually proves problem-atic. You might have to scale a few mountains to handle it.

LEO - Jul 23/Aug 23Leo, this week you might be better off tackling things on your own instead of looking to others for support. This will help minimize any po-tential distractions.

VIRGO - Aug 24/Sept 22You have a few secrets you are not willing to share just yet, Virgo. That’s alright. Keeping some of your agen-da private will inspire curios-ity and be to your advantage.

LIBRA - Sept 23/Oct 23Libra, you may be trying to get a certain person alone so you can have some one-on-one time together. A rendezvous is possible this week.

SCORPIO - Oct 24/Nov 22Scorpio, you are at an im-passe because you are sec-ond-guessing some of your most recent decisions. You may need to shift your focus to get back on track.

SAGITTARIUS - Nov 23/Dec 21The old adage that if you want something done right you have to do it yourself rings especially true this week, Sagittarius. Your skills are put to the test.

CAPRICORN - Dec 22/Jan 20Capricorn, there is a certain window of time this week when you will be extremely effi cient and effective. The other times you may as well throw in the towel.

AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18Aquarius, you have to work out a few loose ends before you are free for a much-needed vacation or just time spent doing whatever it is that makes you happy.

PISCES - Feb 19/Mar 20Pisces, sometimes love can cause pain, but this is the way to grow and learn from mistakes. There are lessons to be learned in a few days.

Sudoku Solution Last Week's Crossword

SudokuHere’s how it works: Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fi ll each row, column and box. Each num-ber can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can fi gure out the order in which the numbers will ap-pear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!

OBITUARY

WIEBEBea

July 11, 1939 - April 29, 2013

With profound sadness in our hearts... Through the trem-bling hands and voices... Through the downpour of tears... We ask all who knew Bea, and loved and cherished her, as we have, to be strong in this dark time. To take comfort in having been blessed with having seen her smile and felt her warmth and kindness, and know in our hearts she would want us not to mourn, but to celebrate her life, and to be grateful for our moments with our beloved angel. We will miss her dearly every day, and always carry with us the void in our beings. We thank you for having graced our lives and though you have been taken from us, our love for you can never be taken away. Please join us for a celebration of life, Friday, May 10, 2013 at The Royal Canadian Legion Drumheller from 3:00 p.m. - 5:30 p.m. 19p

Drumheller students working their way to-wards completing their Duke of Edinburgh Award program have a unique opportunity to fi ll one of the require-ments, and it comes on two wheels. Staff Sergeant Art Hopkins alerted inSide Drumheller to an op-portunity for students to

sign on to an eight-day bike trek from Drum-heller to Banff . “Th is is an excellent opportunity for students involved in the Duke of Edinburgh award to ful-fi ll the expectations for all levels of the adven-turous journey require-ment. Preference will be given, but not limited to, those students enrolled in this program,” said Hopkins. Th e trek is off ered by

Two Wheel View and has spaces for nine stu-dents and three chap-erones for the eight-day ride. Th is is for students over the age of 14 and is scheduled for August 20 to 27. Hopkins explains it is more than simply a trip.

“Students will cultivate their leadership skills by taking part in daily trip planning; engaging with the local community in fund raising activities; and raising their levels of environmental and so-cial awareness,” he said. Th ere will be an infor-mation session on the opportunity on Monday, May 13 at 7:30 p.m. at the Badlands Commu-nity Facility. For more information, contact Constable Craig Nelson at 403-823-7590.

To get ready for the Half Marathon, I’ve been out running as much as I can over the past two weeks. Equally important to determining how to train is where to train. Th e right route can make the diff er-ence in having a good run. Th e Badlands Community Facility is a good place to run, especially when the weather outside is unco-operative. When there, I stick to the running track, though those who want to watch a little TV get a lot of mileage out of the tread mills. But, since the weather has warmed up, I’ve been taking advantage of Drumheller’s extensive trail net-work. I fi nd it a bit more engaging for two reasons. Th e fi rst is the scenery constantly changes and the second, and perhaps most important, reason is if you feel like quitting halfway through, you still have to get home, so might as well keep pushing yourself. During the week, I’ll do a short, high paced run along the river trail between the Badlands Commu-nity Facility and 19 street SE. Th ere and back is about 5 kilometres, which lets me push myself to help build up my leg muscles and cardio. Th is past weekend was my fi rst crack at doing a long run. On Sunday I ran/walked from the Bad-lands Community Facility to where the hiking trail crosses Highway 838, near the Royal Tyrrell Muse-um, and back. In total, that route is about 12 kilome-tres. I used the run/walk approach and managed to run

most of the way at a slow, plodding pace. By the end, I was pretty worn out. I fi nd the aforementioned routes to be the easiest for me, but for anyone wanting to develop their own routes, I fi nd Google Maps can help plan a route, es-pecially if you’re looking to achieve set distances. I’ll have the fi rst test of my training in under a month. I signed up with a team to do the DinoFest Triathlon on June 8, where I’ll be doing a 5 kilometre run.

Th e Tour of Alberta, the fi rst professional cycling race held in Al-berta on this scale, is set to start rolling in a few short months. On May 3, the offi cial routes were released for the

tour. Th e Drumheller area has been a part of the tour since the race of-fi cially announced the host communities on March 5. During stage 3, racers, of which it is expected there will be 120, will travel from Strathmore

to Drumheller, through some of the most scenic prairie terrain the area has to off er. Th e racers fi rst travel north on Highway 817, then head west on High-way 564. Once they hit the turnoff to Rosebud, they head through the rolling hills, through

Rosebud, and then head east down Highway 9 to Drumheller. However, the stage doesn’t end there. Racers pass through town and then must make the grueling as-cent up the north hill of the Valley on Highway 9/56. From there, they head to the Morrin cor-ner and turn west. Th eir legs will be tested again when they have to enter the Valley at the Mor-

rin Bridge and climb their way out again. Afterwards, the racers will take a scenic ride through Highways 837 and 575. Th e stage fi nishes off at the World’s Largest Dinosaur. Th e Town of Drumheller will get double exposure as rac-ers pass through and then fi nish in town. In total, stage three of the race is one of the longest legs of the Tour

of Alberta at 169 kilo-metres. Th e race is scheduled to run from September 3 to 8, with the Drum-heller stage on Septem-ber 6. Anyone wishing to volunteer for the race is encouraged to contact Paul Salvatore, Director of Community Services, Town of Drumheller, at 403-823-1316.

The offi cial route for stage 3 of the Tour of Alberta cycling race. The 120 racers will head from Strathmore to Drumheller, up

to Morrin, and then fi nish at the World’s Largest Dinosaur.
