2 RIMBEY REVIEW Tuesday, March 17, 2015
This week, Rimbey RCMP detachment re-sponded to a number of calls for service including theft, fraud, and breach of Probation Orders, do-mestic violence and other serious matters.
Often, we deal with difficult situations that even make us shed a tear once the dust has all settled. Every now and
then, we encounter cases that are just plain upsetting. In one such case, a despicable human being from parts unknown defrauded an elderly person out of their hard earned money.
A retired senior citizen received a phone call recently from her so-called grandson who was allegedly in jail and needed money to help pay for a collision he was in. He did not want his parents to know and he only needed $2,000. Concerned for her loving grandson, who had always been on the straight and narrow, she complied with his request and sent him the $2,000. Shortly after, his lawyer called and stated he still needed some more money for some unforeseen additional charges and then
he would be released from custody.They were very convincing, however, this widow just
didn’t have any more money to give so she called her daughter and found out that her son was away at work and was never in any trouble.
She had been scammed.These fraudsters had tricked the poor woman out of
her savings and were long gone with the loot. Unfor-tunately, they were never in Canada in the first place leaving police little opportunity for an arrest.
In today’s world, a person’s identity and personal in-formation is readily available on the World Wide Web. Unfortunately, it is just that - the “world wide web”. The last fraud we investigated such as this led us to Africa where the trail of evidence left behind by the criminals ran dry in a country where no one even has a birth cer-
tificate or any other form of identification.It was a country run by organized crime groups and
the environment is very hostile. In that case, the victim’s money, no doubt, was used to fund their violent acts against humanity. These characters have no ethics, mor-als or honesty. They do not care who the victim is.
Please protect yourself and never send money by a wire transfer unless you are 100 per cent sure who it is you are sending it to. A wire transfer is not traceable and is one of the most common methods used by criminals. For more information, go online to the Canadian Anti Fraud Centre for a list of common scams, fraud aware-ness tips and how to report a fraud or call the toll free # at 1-888-495-8501.
Recently, many folks in town have had their vehi-cles rummaged through by opportunistic thieves in the middle of the night. Please ensure you never leave your car unlocked. Do not leave valuables in your unattended vehicle at anytime. Recently, we arrested a car thief who blatantly stated in the interrogation that he did not feel that we could even charge him for theft because the own-er of the truck had left his keys in the console. The thief in this case found out we can and will charge him with theft, however, you don’t want to own a car after this character had been behind the wheel! Take precautions … protect yourself. Lock it up!
If you have any information regarding these or any other crimes, please call the local Rimbey RCMP De-tachment at (403) 843-2224 or Crime Stoppers:

Spring, hiding for several months under a crust of dirty snow, is starting to play peek-a-boo with all us weary winter dwellers.
It’s nice!As winter slowly makes
its most welcome descent, I have found much to my surprise, among the icicles and the crusty snowbanks, there are some really cool (pardon the pun) moments to remember.
It is true. There is always so much stuff to worry about. In fact I am sure there are at least one hundred and one reasons to be sad on any given day. Actually, I am surprised no one has written a book on that.
But, creeping into the very fabric of sadness, like the ridiculous sight of a flower springing up in a crack in the cement, there are these unexplained moments of joy.
Weird, how that happens, but one can only be grateful that they do appear.
A friend and I went out for supper and a movie the other night. That, in itself, was quite magnificent for little old me, who happens to be home alone for the next little while and was thinking of a peanut butter and honey
sandwich as my simple sup-per fare.
But, no, she whisked me away to a rather exotic chick-en and cashew meal which I ate right to the very last cashew, enjoying myself, the cashews, the chicken and the company, immensely.
Anyway, the movie called ‘Wild’ was a tall tale (well, probably not all that tall, and maybe not a tale at all, be-cause it could have happened) about a young girl who went into the ‘wild’ to find herself after her mother died and her marriage disintegrated.
Before the mother died, a scene showed her sing-ing in her little kitchen. Her daughter, home from school, sank dejected onto one of the
tattered old kitchen chairs. She looked at her mother in disgust. “Why are you sing-ing,” she said. “Don’t you get it? Life is hard. We have nothing. You married a loser who left you.”
“Yes”, I thought. “Be miserable, darn it. Life is too hard. Do not, I repeat, do not sing.”
I munched my popcorn!Sadly, the mom died,
hence the trip into the ‘Wild’ for the girl to find herself.
The movie has so much food for thought that I haven’t been able to digest it all, but this much I know for sure.
Walking is good and sing-ing is even better.
Lately, I’ve done lots of walking, mostly because of the Fit bit thing I have on my wrist, and not so much because of a desire to find myself.
I pretty much know where I am and I’m probably late.
But I must admit the ice walk I took with a couple of friends to Johnston’s Canyon did give a whole new meaning to the word ‘walk’.
For me, a faithful, tread-mill type walker, slipping and sliding on the edge of a mountain, protected only by a guardrail, was a totally new, exhilarating experience.
And I must admit, it is right up there on my ‘favorite’
list along with red wine and music.
It was like walking in an ethereal world of beauty where the water and the rocky walls around me were quiet and still, just hanging there, as if they were suspended by Mother Nature in a mag-nificent, frozen white trance.
A delicious supper in my sister’s cozy kitchen (the pret-ty plates more than made up for the slightly burned carrots) and having breakfast with a little girl whose smile and summer sky blue eyes turns my heart to ‘grandma mush’ tells me one thing is for sure.
Spring has arrived early!

Provincial governments across Canada are doing a lot of soul searching as they craft their 2015 budgets.
There is no denying that these are challenging times for our provinces. They face a clear and present economic danger in the form of declin-ing revenues, stubbornly high unemployment and an elusive economic recovery.
The knee jerk reaction to this situation is to slay the dragon of fiscal deficits by slashing provincial expendi-tures. However, this approach is short-sighted and lacks long-term economic vision. The danger is that slamming the fiscal brakes too hard will probably send their provincial economies flying through the windshield.
Regardless the dire contemporary fiscal circum-stances Canada's provinces are facing, now is precise-ly the time for provincial governments to exercise economic leadership. They should embrace a strategic
economic policy that sup-ports the private sector and is directed towards growing the provincial economy.
The reason for a redefined role for the provincial gov-ernments is eminently clear. Despite unprecedented low interest rates, the private sec-tor is hesitant to expand its productive capacity or initiate new investment opportunities. In consequence, the public sector must pick up the ball and invest in the economic fundamentals that will grow a bigger economic pie and set a trajectory for employment creation.
In essence, what is re-quired is to stretch out austerity programs over a longer timeframe. My prescription for the 2015 provincial budgets is to adopt a longer timeline for fiscal contraction, a more protracted implementation scenario and a smaller spoon-full of the bit-ter medicine. Furthermore, I believe that relying singularly on fiscal constraints is wrong.
I am a strong proponent of advocating a public sec-
tor agenda that embraces internal operational efficien-cies, eliminates duplication, raises productivity, infuses an entrepreneurial mindset, modernizes economic gov-ernance and promotes public sector innovation.
During a protracted pe-riod of economic malaise, a fragile economic recovery and a sluggish record of eco-nomic activity, insisting on harsh fiscal austerity mea-sures is a recipe for economic decimation.
In a mixed economy, economic growth should be a collaborative effort and an effective partnership be-tween the public sector and the private sector. Faced with fiscal constraints, the pub-lic sector must increasingly rely on the private sector in order to spearhead investment and job creation. However, in the absence of an optimistic economic outlook from the private sector, the public sec-tor must step up to the plate and kick start the economy. In this regard, the public sec-tor has a vital role to play in
promoting economic growth through facilitating foreign investment, promoting in-novation and opening up new export markets.
In particular, the public sector must do a better job in realigning our human resources with the emerg-ing opportunities of the new global economy. At a time when our human capital, comprised of the education, skills and competencies of our workforce, is a country's most valuable economic as-set and resource, we cannot sit idly by and languish in excessively high rates of unemployment. We need to recognize that unemployment is a debilitating cost on our future potential. It is im-perative that we nurture our human capital assets in order to best align our youth with the new job opportunities of the new global economy of the 21st century.
During tough eco-nomic times, provincial governments should lead by example. This means they should not ask of their citi-
zens more than what they ask of themselves. More specifi-cally, provincial governments should not be exempt from the financial sacrifices and hardship that they impose on their citizens.
In consequence, provin-cial budgets should set the stage for managing the ma-chinery of governance in a more spendthrift, efficient and effective manner. In the same breath, they should develop a strategic plan to simultaneously grow the economy and create new employment opportunities. The three guiding lights that should inform our 2015 bud-gets are balance, perspective and vision. In short, a growth oriented strategy that em-braces government spending reforms.

Challenging times for provinces facing 2015 budgets

BY TREENA MIELKE
For Justin Skjonsberg the ancient sport of swordsman-ship is not only challenging and fun, it is an excellent way to promote self-discipline, dedication and leadership.
Skjonsberg, who started the Academy of European Swordsmanship Rimbey Chapter last October enjoys the sport and encourages other to give it a try.
The twenty-five year-old’s passion for swordsmanship was fueled when he began attending swordsmanship class-es in Edmonton more than a year ago.
He found he thoroughly enjoyed the experience.However, he decided he didn’t wish to continue making
the weekly trek to and from Edmonton, so he decided to look into offering classes locally.
Forshee Hall was decided on as a good central loca-tion for the Rimbey Chapter and Johanus Haider agreed to travel from Edmonton to be the head instructor.
Skjonsberg and Angus Dixon are assistant instructors.The Academy of European Swordsmanship Rimbey
Chapter offers training in hand-to-hand, dagger, short sword, long sword and pole-arms. Classes are Mondays from 7 to 10 p.m. Drop ins are welcome.
“We can have five to 20 people on any given night,” said Skjonsberg.
First year fencers use synthetic swords.Fencers all wear regular leather fencing helmets and
other appropriate equipment to ensure safety at all times.“Safety is number one,” said Skjonsberg.All matches are judged on a point system by a panel of
three judges.Along with training regarding swordsmanship, par-
ticipants may be required to do physical activities such as push-ups, jumping jacks and other forms of conditioning.
Most of the participants who attend The Academy of European Swordsmanship Rimbey Chapter are between the ages of 13 and 16, although there are some older en-thusiasts as well.
Ben Nesbitt from Rimbey, who attends the academy, said he enjoys learning the skill.
“It’s interesting. I like the challenge and enjoy the tac-tile thinking and planning.”

During the last few months, The Beatty House, a well-known landmark on Main Street Rimbey has been the scene of a series of house concerts. These concerts have showcased diverse and talented musi-cians.
The Beatty House So-ciety agreed to hold the concerts as a way of pro-moting Rimbey’s heritage
and giving more credence to the cultural scene in town, said Bronwen Jones, society member.
The last concert, held March 6, featured musician Kim Dunn and Jones said his performance was won-derful.
“The music just flowed out of his fingers.”
Born and raised in North Sydney, Nova Scotia, Kim Dunn started his musical career by studying jazz at St. Francis Xavier Univer-sity in Antigonish. Three decades later this incredibly accomplished musician has shared the stage with the who’s who of East coast and international artists including Rita MacNeil, Bruce Guthro, Matt Min-glewood, Jimmy Rankin, David Myles, Jill Barber, Dave Gunning, George Canyon, Alison Krauss and Philip Glass.
Dunn was the first re-
cipient of the East Coast Music Association’s Musi-cian’s Achievement Award, an award designed to honor the integrity and merit of the consummate musician.
Dunn completed his first solo project, Take This Hammer, combining jazz, blues, soul and pop, in 2009.
He has performed his music with Symphony Nova Scotia and has received na-tional exposure on CBC’s Canada Live and regionally on Atlantic Airwaves. Most recently, Kim hosted the Rita’s Tea Room Summer Concert Series in Big Pond, Nova Scotia, a musical trib-ute to Rita McNeil.
The house concert series will wrap up at the Beatty House on April 11 with a performance by Cassie and Maggie MacDonald, sis-ters, who will bring a taste of Celtic music to Rimbey.

The Rimbey Regional Synergy Group holds regular bi-monthly meetings to hear updates on local industry activities, discuss local activity impacts and opportunities, and to share information about industry related practices in general. These meetings are also a great opportunity for industry reps to learn more about the agricultural practices and implications to the landowners in the lo-cal community.
Presentations on topics of local inter-est are regularly a part of the meetings as well. Most recent presentation topics have included play-based regulations, landowner negotiation and related rights, well-bore ce-menting and aquifer protection.
The March 19 regular meeting’s pre-sentation topic will be focused on pipeline construction. A representative from Red-core, one of the group’s member companies, will give an overview from a construction perspective and be there to answer questions as well.
A regular component of the meetings
has companies that operate in the area provide information on their current and planned activities and answer questions that folks may have regarding their operations. This is also a great opportunity for local res-idents and landowners to connect with the industry reps to let them know about local community events and initiatives that might be of interest.
Meeting attendance typically includes landowners and community residents, lo-cal county representatives, local industry companies, local businesses and the Al-berta Energy regulator. Meetings are held in Bluffton on the third Thursday of every second month, January through November. There is no meeting in July, but the group typically hosts a large Open House event in June.
Meetings start with lunch and are open to the public. An RSVP is appreciated to help plan for the lunch. For more information contact the group’s facilitator at 403-847-8086 or [email protected]

8 RIMBEY REVIEW Tuesday, March 17, 2015
BY TREENA MIELKE
A Rimbey athlete is back from Markham, Ontario where she competed with the Calgary Inferno Wom-en’s Hockey Team in the Canadian Women’s Hockey League championship for the Clarkson Cup.
Camille Trautman, goalie for the Calgary team said she is pleased to have had the chance to compete in the tournament held March 4- 7.
“It was a good experience getting to play in a tourna-ment like that,” she said.
The Infernos lost against Montreal two games in the semi finals and although Trautman only played 17 minutes in the third period of the final game, she said it was good to be in net.
“I felt pretty good. It was good to play in a game and be part of it (the tournament).
Team members watched the final game between Mon-treal and Boston which ended 3-2 for Boston in overtime.
Trautman said she espe-cially enjoyed watching the Montreal goalie, Charlene Labonte play.
“She is very good,” she said.
Being beat out in the playoffs was unfortunate, but overall Trautman said she very much enjoyed the tournament.
“It would have been nice to win, but you can’t win them all,” she said.
The CWHL is comprised
of professional teams from Calgary, Toronto, Montreal, Brampton and Boston and is the highest caliber of female hockey in North America.
Many of the women Olympic team members from Canada and the United States play on these teams during the years in-between the Olympics.
Trautman has played hockey since she was four-years-old and competed in the Rimbey minor hockey system until she was 13.
“I started playing goal when I was eight or nine years old,” she said. “I loved it, it was fun,” she said.
During her early teens she played major midget hockey in Red Deer and then spent three years playing with the Red Deer College Queens while she was en-rolled in kinesiology at the college.
Now 22, Trautman has completed her rookie year with Calgary Inferno, rank-ing fourth goalie overall in the league.
The Clarkson Cup tour-nament marked the end of her competitive hockey ca-reer.
“Hockey has been good to me, but its time to start something new in my life and move on. And I do want to be on the farm.”
Trautman also enjoys ball hockey, biking and quading and would like to continue to play hockey at a recreational level.

Dear Editor,I feel compelled to say
that I am overwhelmingly grateful to be living here. Not only is this area sce-nic and abundant, the folks I have come to meet and
know over the last few years are collectively the most friendly, hard-working, kind and generous people I’ve known. Good people live here!
I am grateful for this
local newspaper that, al-though small - has a big, positive impact in this area. We are weekly informed, entertained and advised of the things that matter to us most in this community -
the people and events that directly affect and inspire us.
Good job!I am also very grateful
for the RCMP members here. By them, we are
cared-for, protected, and in-formed. They are foremost in keeping a diligent watch and tirelessly laboring for our protection - from both transients looking for trou-ble and our local characters who haven’t figured things out yet. Thank you for your constant protection and care and the exceptional way you balance strength, com-passion and humour.
What a blessing you are!
I am truly in awe of the number of really great
people in this community. There is such a sense of welcome, comfort, safety and good-will here that is unprecedented compared to anywhere else I’ve lived. I believe the people who have settled here are among the finest people ever as-sembled in one place!
I am proud to be among you people, living strong - out here - West of the Fifth! I think this area might just be Alberta’s best kept se-cret.

Dear Editor,
It is so often said that chivalry is deadBut if one wears on one’s head a big hat of red
It catches the eyesOf a couple of guys
Right there at the very next table.
We ordered our dinner, each thought theirs a winnerThe chef’s no beginner, we’re not getting thinner.
We were quite a large bunchThat day at our lunch
We stayed as long as we were able.
When we went to the till to pay off our billWe got quite a thrill
We were told it was nil.

‘Be the difference’ encourages all Canadians to be farm safety champions
This March, the Ca-nadian Agricultural Safety Association (CASA) and the Canadian Federation of Agri-culture (CFA) are encouraging all Canadians to become farm safety champions as a part of Canadian Agricultural Safety Week 2015 presented by Farm Credit Canada (FCC), which runs from March 15 to 21, 2015.
Canadian Agricultural Safety Week (CASW) is an annual public education campaign focusing on the im-portance of safe agriculture. This year’s theme is Be the Difference, and organizers want to inspire all Canadians to become farm safety champi-ons through feature champion testimonials, farmer resources and a social media contest.
“This year, we are focusing on the power of the positive. We know that we need to en-gage with all Canadians to make farms safer places to work and live,” says Marcel Hacault, Executive Director of CASA. “We’re encourag-ing all Canadians to become farm safety champions. Health care providers, teachers, agri-business leaders, community members and farmers all play an important role in promoting farm safety.”
“As a farmer myself and in the role as President at the CFA, I see the importance of farm safety firsthand – on
my farm and for farms across Canada,” says Ron Bonnett, CFA President. “Injuries on the farm are no joke, and they happen much more often than they should. We need to work together so that farm safety is acknowledged as important and
“Our commitment to Ca-nadian agriculture extends beyond financing by helping those in the industry success-fully manage risks on their farms or agribusiness opera-tions,” says Brenda Stasuik, FCC Director, Strategy, Government Relations and Corporate Social Respon-sibility. “We’re pleased to partner with CASA for Cana-dian Agriculture Safety Week to empower producers with the information and resources they need to make their operations safer.”
As a part of CASW 2015, CASA and CFA are work-ing with the PEI Federation of Agriculture to host Be the Difference launch activities in Charlottetown, Prince Ed-ward Island on March 16th, 2015. Activities include a lun-cheon with speeches from farm safety champions and half-day training on hazard and risk assessment; Workplace Haz-ardous Materials Information System (WHMIS) or CPR.
“The PEI Federation of Agriculture is pleased to see this year’s CASW launch on
Prince Edward Island soil,” says Charlotte Crooks, Farm Safety Coordinator. “We are proud of our farm safety ini-tiatives in the province and we look forward to seeing what others are doing to “Be the Difference” in their areas. This event is a wonderful way to share knowledge and bring awareness to farm safety na-
tionwide.”Canadian Agricultural
Safety Week takes place ev-ery year during the third week of March. This year, CASW runs from March 15th to 21st. For more information about CASW or PEI launch activi-ties, or to access CASW media kits, please visit agsafetyweek.ca. Media kits include press
releases, feature safety cham-pion articles, safety advice articles, psas, graphics and more.
CASW 2015 is presented by Farm Credit Canada and brought to you by the Ca-nadian Agricultural Safety Association and the Canadian Federation of Agriculture with assistance from the Gov-

Rimbey Municipal Library offers selection of books by Alberta Authors
BY TREENA MIELKE
Rimbey Municipal Library is now featuring some unique and interesting books written by Alberta authors.
The collection is made up of 41 books and includes a variety of genres.
“It is wonderful to have the opportunity to sup-port local authors and local publishers,” said Rimbey li-brarian Jean Keetch.
The new display has been created in partnership with the Writers’ Guild of Alberta and The Book Publishers Association of Alberta. Due to the popular-ity of the first Read Alberta Books collection, Parkland has created a second dis-play, with their partners, to travel to the region’s public libraries.
“It’s been a wonderful collaboration among our three organizations,” says
Ron Sheppard, Parkland’s Director. “Our partners have provided us with an exceptional kit of books that highlights the talents we have here in our prov-ince.”
The collection offers top reading material for chil-dren, teens, and adults, with
each one having been nomi-nated for or having won an award from the 2014 Al-berta book awards seasons. Any one of Parkland’s 50 public libraries can sign up to host the travelling dis-play. Patrons can borrow as many books as they want, and when the books are re-
turned to their library they will join the display, cour-tesy of Parkland’s delivery van.
“While Alberta boasts tremendous writing talent and a vibrant publishing industry, the reading pub-lic has had no easy way to identify locally-produced
material,” says Carol Holmes, Executive Director of the Writers’ Guild. “This project goes a long way to raise awareness and interest in our homegrown authors and publishers.”
“We are delighted to be working in partnership with the Writers’ Guild of
Alberta and the Parkland Library staff to showcase the wonderful literary work that is being done in Alberta,” added Kieran Leblanc, Executive Direc-tor of the Book Publishers Association of Alberta. “This is a great opportu-nity for everyone.”

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Dear Editor,I have just read an ar-
ticle in the Red Deer Life paper about Rimbey’s long-awaited seniors lodge.
The $13.3 million is Provincial cash infusion that was arranged last spring, thanks to Joe Anglin.
At that time it was des-ignated for an 80 unit senior lodge, and now it is only going to be a 40 unit build-ing, states the article in the paper.
What has become of the proposed 80 new units that were to be built with the $13.3 million?
The very first idea for Rimbey to have another senior lodge, began three years ago.
At that time, Joe Anglin was chairman of the Rimo-ka Housing Foundation (RHF) board with Keith Beebe and Gawney Hinkley as Ponoka County represen-tatives on the RMH board.
The County of Ponoka bought the land site and hold it in trust to the RHF.
I sincerely want to thank the County of Ponoka for the land purchase for this new lodge and their con-tinuing representation on the RHF board. I hope I can live long enough to see this lodge completed and that it doesn’t take another three years! Gawney HinkleyRetired Ponoka County Reeve and councillor

BERZE Mr. Joseph Berze of the Centerview District passed away suddenly on Sunday March 8, 2015 at the age of 81 years. Joe was born in Drumheller, Alberta on December 6, 1933 to Joseph Sr. and Helen Berze. On August 20, 1954, Joe was united in marriage to Lois Freeman. For the fi rst six years of their marriage, Joe and Lois travelled all around Saskatchewan as Joe was working on a seismic crew. In 1957 they purchased the farm in the Centerview District where Joe and Lois raised their three kids. It was during this same time that Joe took a job helping to construct the Rimbey Gas Plant. Joe continued working at the plant after its completion and over the next 37 years worked his way up through the ranks obtaining the position of
Maintenance Foreman. In all Joe worked in the oil industry for 43 years. Joe also kept busy running the farm, fi rst producing grain and later cattle. Eventually his son Blair took over the daily operation of the farm. Joe’s fi rst love was his wife Lois and his family, his second love was sports. Joe played all sports, hockey, baseball, curling and he excelled at all of them. He mastered the game of golf and was well known for his long drives. Not only did Joe enjoy playing sports, but he also enjoyed coaching teams in both hockey and baseball. Joe and Lois travelled all over North America in their motor coach and they very much enjoyed their journeys and the people they travelled with. They fi nally settled for spending the winter months in their park model in Blythe, California which they did for eleven years. Joe was a member of the Bentley Elks and also served as the secretary for the Forshee Hall Board for many years. Predeceased by his parents Joseph Sr. and Helen and by one brother Zoltan. Joe is survived by his loving wife Lois of Bentley, daughters; Charlene and her partner Richard of Alhambra, JoAnne (Stan) Rumsey of Bentley and son; Blair of Bentley. Joe also leaves to mourn his loss, fi ve grandchildren; Vicki, Tim, Chris, Megan, Jordan and his fi ve great grandchildren; Rachel, Madison, Grace, Olivia and Hudson. Joe was passionate about everything he did in life. He was a true leader, whether it be leading a team he played on or coached, leading a crew of men at work or leading the convoy of travellers down the highway. A gathering of friends and family will be held from the Bentley Seniors Drop In Centre in Bentley, Alberta on Saturday March 14, 2015 from 1:00 PM - 3:00 PM. If friends desire and in lieu of fl owers, memorial contributions may be made to the charity of the donor’s choice.

Bentley ladies bonspielContinued from page 17
The Whittaker team felt they really had got their money’s worth over the weekend. Besides play-ing six games and winning prize money after each win, there was free food includ-ing a banquet, raffles and a silent auction, and games and fun galore.
Friday night a bison supper for the curlers was donated by Elisabeth and Urs Mueller. Saturday and Sunday mornings a free con-tinental style breakfast was available courtesy MGM Lincoln Mercury. A ca-tered banquet by Rochelle’s Bakes & Cakes took place Saturday night at the club. Because of generous spon-sors contacted by steadfast
volunteers there were also door prizes for everyone.
Best costume was awarded to the Cirque du Soleil “troop”.
The draw master was Ken Brown.
Winning the $1,000 cash/travel voucher “Trip to Vegas” raffle was Joe and Margrit Rohrer from Red Deer County.
Karen Jaffray won the gift basket raffle, and there was a raffle of four rounds of golf at the Lacombe Golf & Country Club.
The next bonspiel is the closing mixed Town & Country slated for March 18-21. Call the club at 403-748-4303 or Krista at 403-848-1250 for more in-formation.
