Hundreds of people are involved in the cleanup, a job that is expected to take some time to complete. Spill cleanup continues by Geoff Lee [email protected] Husky Energy continues to investigate the cause of an oil pipeline spill into the North Saskatchewan River as the cleanup effort is in full swing. This week, more the 400 outside workers and 200 Husky personnel are focusing efforts from the point where about 250,000 litres of heavy oil leaked into the river near Maidstone, downstream to Hwy. 21. The province’s Ministry of Environment reported Tuesday that 130,000 litres of oil and other materials have been recovered with a follow up report due Wednesday after our press deadline on how much oil has sunk and may not be recoverable. The ministry also planned to release interim findings Wednesday on at least 250 water sample results since the spill was reported on July 21. The animal death toll because of the spill has risen to 58 birds, fish and other wildlife with wildlife deterrents currently in place, along 30 kilometres or so, of shoreline downstream from the leak entry point. Seven animals are in recovery at Focus Wildlife in Maidstone with support from Husky. Saskatchewan officials are continuing to caution residents to limit recreational activities in the North Saskatchewan River except for boating and catch and release fishing. The cause of the pipeline leak has yet to be determined, but Husky spokesperson Mel Duvall said the pipeline that leaked was built in 1997 and bored under the river. It’s part of company’s Saskatchewan Gathering System carrying heavy oil and diluent. Duvall confirmed the leak itself occurred on land noting, “With it being a slope, the oil went downhill.” Approximately nine kilometres of shoreline had been cleaned by Wednesday morning, with 11 booms along an 18-km stretch of water to contain oil. The oil sheen on the surface of the river is being removed by hydrovacs, one of a number of techniques being used, including the skimmer booms. Crews began low pressure washing the shoreline then moved on to other forms of removal including using large whippersnappers to remove impacted vegetation. The idea is to contain material that could become dislodged and re-suspended into the river. “It is a very controlled, HOT DEALS NO DPF! focused, methodical program and it’s being led by one of the foremost cleanup experts in the world,” said Duvall. The cleanup effort is being led by Owens Coastal Consultants (OCC) that provides worldwide scientific support for spill response operations and spill response planning. OCC is headed by Dr. Ed Owens, who’s been at the forefront of shoreline response technology since 1970. The shoreline work on the river is being coordinated by OCC officials and Husky staff at the Lloydminster operations centre. “A lot of it is planning the next steps,” said Duvall, referring to the 200 or so Husky employees working on the project. Duvall said Husky continues to maintain daily contact with affected communities downstream from the oil spill including North Battleford and Prince Albert. Husky has posted a company liaison person in Prince Albert to provide closer coordination of clean up efforts in that city. Prince Albert and North Battleford shut off their water supply intakes following the spill and both communities have now tapped into alternative water sources.

Now is the chance to find out first hand at the Saskatchewan Open Farm Day in Lloydminster, taking place Sunday. The event brings people on a bus tour to three local farms in Saskatchewan, where they can learn how food is produced and get some up close education on agriculture, then to top it off, a five course meal will be prepared by hometown Red Seal Chef Rob Hofer using all local ingredients. “They’ll see Lower Shannon Farms, we’ll check out their greenhouse and see how they grow all their vegetables throughout the year—it’s a year round operation,” said Tess Wack, marketing specialist with the Lloydminster Agricultural Exhibition Association. “We’re going to head to TnC Farms and check out some alpaca farming, get up close and personal with some alpacas, and then we’re going to head to a beef farm operation and we’ll see some cattle up close.” As of the time of the interview, the beef farm hadn’t been selected yet and was still being lined up. Wack adds Open Farm Days is not only a great way for residents to learn about where their food comes from, but also the different kinds of producers in the area, like the alpaca farm for instance, where they’ll be able to buy some alpaca wool. She also said it’s important to bring attention to local producers and the hard work they put in to providing food for the area, as well as highlight more businesses for people interested in the shopping local movement. “This is just a great opportunity to see what’s right down the road,” said Wack. “We’ve done the Alberta one in the past, this is the first time we’re doing a Saskatchewan one, and it’s also geared to anybody, young to old, we’ve had lots of families, all kinds of people.” After the informa- tive tour, the day will be wrapped up with a gourmet meal that’ll be held in a top secret location. Hofer, the Red Seal chef, is going to prepare what Wack promises will be a delicious meal with food from some local producers in the area. “Just to make it fun,” said Wack, about the reason for keeping the dining location under wraps. “It adds to the experience and it’s under tent so even if it’s raining, it’ll be fun.” The busses for the tour will leave the Lloydminster Exhibition Grounds at 10 a.m. and return some time near 3:30 p.m, and admission for that portion of the day is free of charge. Those interested in the clandestine five course meal can return to the Exhibition Grounds at Submitted photo Lloydminster Open Farm Day is back and this time around will be touring some farms in Saskatchewan. The event offers a trip to three farms to see how local food is produced and an optional gourmet meal will be served in the evening. 5 p.m. where they’ll be bussed to the covert dining area; tickets for the meal are $100 and include drinks. “They’ll enjoy it, have a great evening, then we’ll bus them back into our parking lot as well,” said Wack. “It’s a great way to spend a Sunday.” thth Anniversary!

That’s the whole idea behind the festival, which is going into its third year this summer from Aug. 5 to 7, offering a variety of entertainment he said will appeal to people right across the age spectrum. “Families, friends, just literally taking the time to hang out with one another; that’s the main basis behind this whole thing,” Butler said. “It’s like stepping back in time 30 years and really enjoying nature, the people around you, I have no cell service out there—you can’t use them, good luck, their phones are useless to them unless it’s for the camera, so they’re forced to talk to one another.” The Dog Patch Music Festival has a strong focus on children’s entertainment as well, with separate programs just for kids, so parents don’t have to leave them behind when they go to the event. Butler said he wants to show people festival culture isn’t all dope and booze, but can be more about just connecting with one another and making memories. That doesn’t mean it’s a dry event, however, as there’ll be the token beer gardens he said are ubiquitous at Saskatchewan events. “This is solely based really on the family idea, it’s based on people from one to 100, so there’s not going to be anything there that’s going to offend anybody, like I said, we still have our beer gardens and stuff,” he said. “But it’s really just to gather community together, because there’s such a loss of community right now.” There’ll be 20-plus bands playing on two stages, with names like The Harpoonist and the Axe Murderer, The Dead South, and Colter Wall, son of the Saskatchewan Premier. The bands cover a variety of styles from bluegrass and blues to rock and country and D.J. Market Mall from Saskatoon will be onsite to provide some after hours entertainment when the live acts leave the stages. Some acts from Lloydminster will be playing at the festival as well, like Poor Bill and also the Tarp Kickers. The Tarp Kicker’s drummer, Brian Earl, said the band hasn’t played the festival before and is looking forward to the experience. “This is going to be our first year and I’ve heard a lot of good things about it, just a small community based festival,” said Earl. “It should be a lot of fun just playing another festival and meeting new people and experiencing what this festival has Submitted photo Lloydminster’s own The Tarp Kickers will be hitting the stage at this year’s Dog Patch Music Festival, which will take place Aug. 5 to 7 in Whelan, Sask. to offer, because every festival and show you play has a different feel to it, different people, they’re always fun in their own way; it’s always exciting to play something new.” The event, which saw numbers of attendance climb from 300 to 1,000 in its first to second year, also works as a fundraiser with a percentage of proceeds going to the Wounded Warriors Foundation. Butler’s father is ex-military, so he wants to help people suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, and that’s why he chose Wounded Warriors as the beneficiary of the event. The Dog Patch Music Fest was actually inspired by an event his parents used to hold in the early ‘80s called the Dog Patch Pig Roast, something that brought people in the community together, and he wanted to continue that kind of legacy. “I wanted to do the same thing in 2012, 2013, and I thought, well you know what, maybe I should do a pig roast, because I noticed the community was really divided; people weren’t doing stuff together anymore,” he said. “We used to have gymkhanas and dances, (but since then) nothing’s happened, so I said to heck with it, let’s get something going so that we can bring the community back together.” So the event started as a pig roast, but because of Butler’s love of music festivals, he grew it into what it’s become today, but despite the changes, the goal remains the same: bringing people together. It’s this community mindedness that’s driven organizers to make sure there are lots of activities for the family outside of the bands, like a volleyball tournament and music workshops for the children. There will be a little stage for some theatre, where people will put on some plays for the younger attendees, as well as face painting and a parade where children will get to make their own costumes to wear. “We’re about having a celebration that everybody can enjoy and it’s good clean family fun,” Butler said. “We really are trying to make a long lasting impact, bringing people together in a family environment, that’s the whole reason behind all this.” For more information or to buy tickets, visit: www.dpmf.ca.

City council has recently approved the purchase of the former Synergy Credit Union building and property for just over $4.7 million dollars. Additionally, renovations for this project will cost upwards of $15 million dollars before accumulated interest. The reasoning for this purchase was to create a “Hub” to anchor the revitalizing of the downtown core of our great city. This is a noble and bold venture on behalf of our city council and administration. At the same time, Lloydminster is planning for other major capital projects especially the Wastewater Treatment Facility, which will stretch our borrowing capacity to the limit. Publisher: Reid Keebaugh General Manager: Kent Keebaugh Editor: Mike D’Amour Sales Manager: Deanna Reschny Production Manager: Karrie Craig There is a limit that the city can borrow, which directly affects our capital spending and planning. City council will need to identify its priorities and follow a plan of fiscal responsibility to ensure that long-term goals are met while balancing the needs of today and the future. I believe city council, going forward, needs the ability to review, consider and hear from the citizens of Lloydminster. Our thoughts and views should be consulted before investing in projects that will have far reaching consequences on all of us. Lets make sure we have a fully developed funding plan before we approve the next major capital project in our city.

[email protected] LLoyDMinStER LLOYDMINSTER SOURCE I WWW.LLOYDMINSTERSOURCE.COM I Thursday, August 4, 2016 NEWS Nostalgic soundtrack of our lives MY LLOYDMINSTER by Sandra L. Brown Through the years, our personal recollections and memories of events may well change. Ever present though is our passion and appreciation for music. Each generation moves to an internal rhythm that perhaps only they could feel and fully appreciate. As the Barr Colonists left the familiar mists of England behind, music was more than just passion and talent; it was nostalgic—a reminder of their proud British heritage and homeland. Music was a way to preserve their way of life to which they were accustomed. Musical instruments were amongst their numerous personal belongings loaded aboard the S.S. Lake Manitoba for their ocean voyage. While a brass band celebrated their arrival, musical instruments such as folding organs, pianos, banjos, auto harps, violins, and flutes were crammed onto the trains waiting to take the Barr Colonists as far as Saskatoon. For the last step of their journey west to the desolate prairie, Bain wagons purchased in Saskatoon were precariously loaded. These wagons often overturned in the sloughs and were so overloaded that the women and children usually had to walk. Music was a contributing inspiration for church services, weddings, picnics, and community events. Regularly advertised were vocal and instrumental concerts. Birthday parties and community dances accompanied by Western style music were popular. An opera club formed early on presenting a unique melodic vocal style. Locals gathered at each other’s homes for musical evenings especially in the harsh winter. Organized in November 1903, Rev. Lloyd was president of the 100 plus member Literary and Musical Society. Musical theatre in 1907 opened with the Claman Stock Company presenting “East Lynne” and “My Nephew’s Wife Jane” along with 10 artists, songs, and illustrated acts. A concert arranged by the Ladies Guild of the St. John’s Church held on Empire Day in May 1907 scheduled local talent, plus well-known artists such as Mrs. Whittaker a soloist of the Leed’s Choral Festival in England and Mr. George Avenell from London. Songs, duets, piano and violin solos along with recitations and comic sketches were planned. All stores were closed for the day. Gross proceeds for the new St. John’s Church were reported as over $90. Costumes were a specialty at the Mesdames Lindsay, dressmakers at the first cottage on Main Street north of the track, as advertised in 1907. The barber’s saloon on Church Street updated with hot or cold baths, electric massage, and shoe shining also offered first-class cigars for sale. The Furniture Emporium, a store on Main Street, sold Mason-Risch and Doherty organs. Pioneers were encouraged to dress up. Military and Masonic balls were well-attended fashionable events. Ladies` gowns were a modest floor length, as it was unacceptable to show their ankles. A town band known as the Citizens Band was organized and performed at various community events including open-air concerts, in the summer of 1907. Purchasing a modified pipe organ from Winnipeg’s St. Luke’s Church in January 1911, the St. John’s Church was optimistic that it would be installed quickly. Reportedly, seldom seen outside major city churches, an instrument of this calibre would add a significant musical depth to their services. Kerswell’s Music Store advertised pianos, organs, gramophones, records, musical instruments, strings and fittings as well as sheet music for sale in 1911. Performers provided musical sound at the Empress Theatre during the early days of silent movies. The first music festival held in 1931 had forty-four entries including piano, instrumental, vocal and bands. Playing an important community role, music is easily a nostalgic soundtrack of our lives.

Teams of workers have re-roofed the famous Log Cabin Tea-house, they fully replaced the mini golf course, re-painted the exterior of the Canadian National Railways station, re-organized and upgraded the machine shed’s collection of early farm implements, re-landscaped the entire facility and improved a number of exhibits, which are on display. The center’s executive invite you to examine their much improved facility during Museum Festival Day Aug. 14. Being a Sunday, the day begins with an open tent church service at 10:30 a.m. and at 11 a.m. the doors open to you for browsing the exhibits displayed in the complex’s buildings while pioneer skills, including a working telegraph, are demonstrated and a huge silent auction opens for bidding on nearly 100 items. Visitors in need of a rest can lounge in the shade under a large tent and enjoy stage entertainment throughout the day. At 1 p.m. the street parade will pass down main street and all other activities will cease to allow visitors to witness one of the best small town parades in Saskatchewan, after which the activities will resume. At 5 p.m. a scrumptious roast beef supper will be served up to fast-flowing lines with a cost of only $10 per adult, $5 children six to 10 and free to kids under six. The Heritage Center also invites you to visit the nearby historic sites of Fort Pitt, with its extensive fur trade era history, and the National Historic Site of Frenchman Butte battle between Cree Warriors and the Alberta Field Force on May 28, 1885. You’ll be amazed at the exciting stories in our western Canadian history! The Frenchman Butte Heritage Center is well known to tourists; a popular magazine readers’ survey in 2013 voted the “Best Small Town Museum” in the province. It has shown great improvement every year as its collection is continually enhanced. This year the new mini golf will be open to all, but focusing on the kids, there’s also a playground nearby as well as face-painting artists to keep them occupied through the afternoon. Food is always a necessity at functions such as the Heritage Center promotes. Hotdogs are noon fare, coffee is free, pop and bottled water is available, and top off your lunch with a piece of the best pie ever with a dollop of cool ice cream on top. The Frenchman Butte Heritage Center is located right in the Hamlet of Frenchman Butte and has its own 10 site R.V. Park with full hook-ups, and there are free shuttles running between the parking areas and the main street. Admission is by donation, not a fee.

The time to start watching for sales on clothing is now. But where to look? Take inventory Go through your children’s closets. What do you need for shoes, boots and winter clothing? Do they need a few new things to spruce up their back-to-school wardrobe? Try to purchase a size up to account for sudden growth spurts. Make a list of what you are watching for and stick to your list. Shop off-season Just as your kids are busy wearing out their swim trunks, shorts and flip flops, stores are beginning to clear out their summer stock. Now is the time to watch for next year’s sizes at a reduced price. Yes, money is tight and you need to gear up for school. But you will be buying these things next year—don’t wait and pay full price if you can help it. Similarly, watch for winter boots and snow suits if you have no alternative but to purchase new. But remember, you must only buy what is needed. Online, new and used There are great clearance deals to be found online. Factor in the cost of shipping, though, and consider if it is really saving you money. Could you support a locally owned business instead? If your budget is tight this year, use great discretion when shopping online. Wait a day before going through the virtual check out. You may find you are not as impulsive after a good night’s sleep. Are you fortunate enough to be offered hand-me-down clothing for your kids? Have you shied away from accepting in the past? Look at it this way: most clothing is made in poor countries with dismal working conditions. But when you buy or accept used clothing you reduce the demand for more of it to be produced. You also delay that item being taken to a landfill. Sort through handme-downs; keep what you can use and either donate or give away what you can’t. If you have invested a bit more money in some items for your children, you might want to list them on kijiji or have a garage sale of your own to get some money back. Feel good that you’re passing on some savings to another family while saving a bit for yourself. Are your children fashion divas? This is an excellent opportunity to teach them about the value of money. If they insist on the brand name ball cap and shoes, let them see how much money there is per child for clothing this year. Allow them to help decide how that money will be allocated. Allow the child to perform extra chores and try to find a compromise between new and used that works for everyone. Thrift stores, garage sales and second hand sites For those not blessed with a large extended family or friends with older children, there are still many ways to save on kids’ clothes. Local thrifts stores ,like For the Interval Store, LABIS Second Chance Clothing and the Olive Branch all donate the proceeds of their sales to great local causes. You might need to keep checking back to find what you are looking for, but you are likely to save a bundle. The same can be said for cruising garage sales and online sites like kijiji or different Facebook groups. How much is enough? Having less money is stressful but it gives everyone a reason to examine their priorities. How much do we really need to be happy? How much, realistically, should we spend on clothes for our kids? If they are warm enough, clean, well fed and loved, are those brand name clothes going to make them better people? Downsizing the budget for kids clothing doesn’t reflect on your parenting. Having a couple outfits for school and a set of play clothes to change into afterwards teaches kids routine, responsibility, and respect for their belongings. If kids learn to fold their once-worn clothing and put it away for tomorrow, parents might spend less time doing laundry—an added benefit. Is it really that radical to suggest that we buy our kids clothes only when they actually need something? Ask yourself this: would you rather your kids have designer name brand clothing now, or an education savings plan later? Is keeping name brand clothing on their backs threatening the roof over their heads? Having your children dressed stylishly in stain-free, good quality clothing can be done on a tight budget if are always watching for great deals. The more effort you put in, the more you will save. LLOYDMINSTER SOURCE I WWW.LLOYDMINSTERSOURCE.COM I Thursday, August 4, 2016 NEWS 13 A sea of change in gardening GREEN FILE by Mark Cullen www.markcullen.com I recently completed my annual tour of the country and I have much to report. While Canadians are gradually becoming aware of climate change and the impact that it is having on our daily lives, there is a sea of change in the gardening business. My travels have taken me to many points in Ontario, Quebec and out west. My relationship with Home Hardware requires me to travel to some remote places like Fort St John in northern B.C. and points between here and there. My launch of a new book, The New Canadian Garden, has also required that I travel around the country talking with and listening to Canadians who share this passion that we call gardening. Here is what Canadians are talking about, with regard to our most popular outdoor pastime, gardening: 1. Goodbye bees, hello heightened awareness! The decline of the honey bee population has propagated so much discussion about pollinators and related topics that the ad campaign for Honey Nut Cheerios blew everyone out of the water. They launched the campaign at Canada Blooms this past March, expecting to give away about 35 million wild flower seeds across the country. The demand was so great that they gave away a total of more than 100 million seeds. While we are sensitive to the general decline of bees, it is important to note that we have more than 700 native bee species in Canada. 2. Insect hotels. While many Canadians are scratching their heads over the notion of attracting beneficial insects to their yards and gardens, many others are embracing the idea. I have become acutely aware of the situation while traveling to the U.K. over the last few years, where they are a generation ahead of us on this one. Mason bee huts, hotels, habitat: call them what you want, retailers are surprised by the demand for such things. I predict insect hotels, butterfly habitat, mason bee huts and the like, will be so popular in 20 years that they’ll be as common in Canadian backyards as bird feeders are now: more so in urban areas where awareness seems highest. 3. Native plants. This is not a revolutionary idea, but one that’s been evolving for about 25 years. Canadians are planting more native species. They are generally lower maintenance than their hybrid cousins, they are reliably winter hardy when grown in their native zone and they attract pollinators quite nicely. A three-point punch for native plants! Garden retailers have caught on to this idea and are now offering a wide selection of them. Another big change to Canadian gardening. 4. It is all about the food. While attending a book-signing/ speaking engagement in Ottawa this season, I was introduced to the daughter of one guest: a 22 year old first time gardener. I’m always interested to know what draws a young person into the gardening fold, and I am surprised when the reason is anything other than food. Indeed, Olivia was getting into raised bed veggie gardening. Like every generation before them, the 20 and 30 somethings are influencing all of us in profound ways, including how we garden. Seed suppliers tell me they’re having trouble keeping vegetable and herb seeds on the racks. Especially kale seeds. Go figure. Have the kids actually tasted this stuff? I am more about carrots and tomatoes. The point, of course, is we are growing food plants, including fruit trees and berry plants, in greater numbers than we have seen since the Victory Gardens of the Second World War. 5. Birds, butterflies and hummingbirds. It’s almost wrong to lump all of these together in a sentence as each of them represents a ‘stand alone’ topic. However, you are busy and I only have so much space here, so let’s consider the impact of this category of gardening that is growing in popularity almost as quickly as food gardening. Today we’re beginning to realize the positive impact that our actions have on the entire natural cycle that occurs just outside of our back door when we attract birds, butterflies and hummingbirds to the garden. First, feeding them bird seed, hummingbird nectar and planting nectar and pollen rich flowering plants helps to bring them to your yard. Water features provide life and habitat for a host of desirable wildlife, especially still water (with a gold fish in it to control mosquitoes). In the end, it’s all about the frogs. If you manage to attract frogs, salamanders and toads to your yard (which you will do with the right plants and water) you will have passed the toughest biodiversity test of all: these creatures breathe through their skin and therefore are among the most environmentally sensitive. When you find a frog in your yard you are a champion of the environment. This is what leading-edge gardening is all about today. Mark Cullen is an expert gardener, author and broadcaster.

Old fashioned movie fun by Jaime Polmateer [email protected] Fountain Tire Ltd. is celebrating 60 years of operation and they want to get the public in on the celebration. “Fountain as a whole picked 12 major centres for this Open Road Cinema Tour to play in and we were lucky enough to be picked as one of those locations,” said Kent Staniforth, owner of Fountain Tire’s Lloydminster location. “We’re pretty excited to see what takes place and hopefully we get lots of people out to take advantage of it.” The Open Road Cinema Tour offers an old-fashioned drive-in movie experience with the event’s PROTECTING ALBERTANS AGAINST UNFAIR POWER BILLS The Government of Alberta is going to court to protect Albertans from being forced to pay for the business losses of five power companies. The companies are trying to offload their losses onto Albertans because of a deal made between the former government and Enron, a discredited and now-bankrupt U.S. electricity operator. Albertans shouldn’t have to pay for the losses of electricity companies. This ‘Enron clause’ was never raised during months of public hearings 16075DE0 got a fair deal as their that were supposed to ensure Albertans electricity system was deregulated. And, there is evidence the Enron clause was enacted unlawfully by the previous government and then deliberately withheld from the public. selection for the 60 year celebration being Kung Fu Panda 3. The movie will begin at 9:30 p.m. Aug. 9, but other festivities will start at 6 p.m. prior to the screening. There’ll be face painters, balloon animals, bouncy houses and the Border City’s new mobile arcade unit, 1-Up gaming, for families to use to pass the time before the movie starts. “This year we’ve decided that we’re going to host a family focused event just to allow families to spend some time together and not have to take up a weekend,” said Staniforth. “It’s a free drive-in movie, so every family has the ability to come out and take part in an old fashioned drive-in.” Staniforth added he and his crew at Fountain Tire’s Lloydminster location take a lot of pride being involved with an organization that’s been around for more than half a century. Fountain Tire Lloydminster actually celebrated its 50th anniversary two years ago and was one of the first locations setup when the store became a franchise after originating in Wainwright. The corporation as a whole likes to recognize certain milestones, Staniforth said, and 60 years in business is certainly a cause for celebration. “In the past we had always had a large giveaway as kind of a momentous recognition of the big celebration, but this year, the way the economy has been the last couple years, we thought a family oriented activity such as this that doesn’t cost any admission fee for families; it allows us to have thousands of winners instead of just one winner of one particular prize,” he said. “So this allows us to get a whole lot more people involved and enjoy the experience.” The 60 year celebration will take place at the Lloydminster Exhibition grounds and will have washrooms and concessions onsite. Hon. Gerry Ritz, P.C., M.P. The Government is asking the court to overturn the Enron clause and protect Albertans against an estimated $2 billion in business losses over the next four years. If successful, any additional electricity fees charged to the public due to the Enron clause will be refunded back to Albertans. Albertans shouldn’t be on the hook for a backroom deal that allows companies to collect the profits when power prices are high and hand consumers the losses when prices are low. That’s why the Government of Alberta is taking legal action – to protect Albertans.

The project is the brainchild of teenage assistant studio dance instructor Macey Afseth, who received an overwhelming response to her camp idea after posting it on Facebook. “Dance is a really expensive activity to be doing and I know a lot of people right now, because of the economy, can’t afford dance,” said Afseth.“So I just thought I would give the kids a little dancing experience.” The camp will go ahead Aug. 8-9 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. with about 50 kids from age four to 10 learning hip hop and jazz dance steps. “I’ve always been taught to be kind and reach out to people who need help,” said Afseth. “Me and my mom were talking one day and we thought it was going to be a really good idea.” About 100 kids had to be turned down because the studio doesn’t have the space, but studio owner Sarah Makins called Afseth’s idea brilliant and worth repeating. “We’re actually going to do them throughout the year—I was so impressed with her idea,” said Makins. “I said, ‘Macey, we’re going to fly with this; this will be your project and you do as many as you wish throughout the year.’ ” Makins said they might even do a back to school one coming up in the last week in August with so much interest in the first camp. “There was no one but her to have this idea because she loves dance herself and she appreciates how much her mom works to keep her in dance.” Makins called Afseth one of her studio’s most outgoing, kind and welcoming young ladies who will focus the camp on hip hop. “Hip hop is kind of one of the easier ones to learn and you can kind of be more yourself where the other ones you need FREE IN-HOME CONSULTATION SHOWROOM: 3005 - 50th Avenue Lloydminster (780) 871.0808 www.budgetblinds.com/lloydminster Submitted photo 14-year-old dancer Macey Afseth will be teaching hip hop dance moves like this for free to a group of 50 boys and girls at Fame Dance Studios in Lloydminster Aug. 8-9. more technique,” said Afseth. Afseth has invited some of her Fame classmates to help instruct the camp along with some volunteer help from instructor Brianna Martin. Most of the kids for the camp are coming from Lloydminster and Lashburn, including about 15 boys. Afseth said she’s been dancing since she was two and competitively at Fame studios since she was nine. “I do hip hop, tap, ballet, jazz, contemporary, point—we pretty much do it all there,” she said. In May, she and several classmates entered the StarQuest dance competition in Las Vegas where the team won first place in a couple of dances and the best costume award. Dancing, she said, gives you a way to express yourself and to just be yourself. “I love kids so much so I figure I love dancing and I love kids, so why not just try teaching it,” she said about her camp idea.

Liners stress process heading to national tournament by Andrew Brethauer [email protected] The Lloydminster Liners U18 women’s softball team know they can play great during a tournament — and they also know they can play bad. The Liners battled back from a slow start at the Alberta provincial tournament to win gold, earning the top seed from Alberta heading into national tournament. A week later, however, they won one game at the Canadian Open Fast Pitch Championship in Surrey, B.C., unable to capitalize on in-position hitting. Now heading into the U18 Women’s Canadian Fast Pitch Championship in Charlottetown, P.E.I. against the best from across the country, the Liners are looking to stick to the process that has kept them successful all season, as in a week long tournament, a hot team can walk away with the national championship. “Teams aren’t there because they don’t know how to win ball games,” said Liners head coach Brett Harvie. “It doesn’t matter who your opponent is, if you don’t perform, don’t play up to your potential, you’re going to lose most of those games.” Lloydminster starts the tournament off playing the champions from Ontario on Monday before two games on Tuesday against the third seeded team from New Brunswick and the second seeded team from Manitoba. They finish up the round robin against Nova Scotia. It’s a schedule that Harvie said he is happy about, as the Liners avoid powerhouse teams from British Columbia and Quebec in the round robin stage. But Ontario, as always, is expected to be in contention for a medal, so getting off to the right start against them could set the tone for the rest of the week heading into playoffs. “Right off the bat we play an Ontario provincial champion, so we jump in with both feet,” said Harvie. “If we can get a win in that game, that can set us up really good for the week. If we don’t, then we are chasing a little bit. That is a game we need to go after.” See “Liners,” Page 22 IF YOU DON’T SEE IT, WE’LL FIND IT FOR YOU! 2014 F-150 4X4 Supercrew XTR 30,900 $ #6466A 61,912 km NOW MOVED!

The 13th annual PBR Canada event will be no different, as past champion Zane Lambert will return for another shot at the Lashburn buckle, as will plenty of the cowboys who were at this year’s Calgary Stampede. And with proceeds going towards local groups, including Lashburn’s 4-H club, the curling rink, rugby club, the slow pitch teams and a bit of money going outside the community to the Maidstone Girl Guides. “It started out as a fundraiser for the new arena,” said Theresa Stene, a committee member with the Brad Phipps event. “It’s been a major fundraiser. It’s one of the big events in the Andrew Brethauer photo The Brad Phipps Memorial Bull Riding event will enter its 13th year when some of the best bull riders in the world come to the town of Lashburn.

Everything we raise, everything above our expenses, goes back into the community. We really just love to give back to groups that normally need money and would be willing to help us out.” Bull riding is an event that Stene said is made for a small community such as Lashburn, as it doesn’t come with the rest of the rodeo events such as steer wrestling, bronc riding and roping that would require a larger arena. A bull riding space can be set up in a baseball field with bleachers all around, giving spectators perfect sight lines no matter where they sit.

In the midst of the campaign to save the program from being cut from Hockey Alberta, Lloydminster utilized the Steeler name in a “I’m a Steeler” social media movement, branding tweets and Facebook posts with the hashtag #IMASTEELER, while a video sent to Hockey Alberta as part of their proposal package had players, parents and coaches each saying the three words, announcing that the Steelers were more than just a hockey team. Now that Steeler identity will be synonymous with Lloydminster female hockey, as the Steelers will not just be the midget AAA female team this season, but also the newly created midget AA team, and the bantam AA team, which was formally the Ice Cats. “We thought it was a good idea to draw some synergy to that group and magnify the girls program,” said Steve Hughes, elite female midget hockey director with the Lloydminster Minor Hockey Association. “We’ll have three elite female hockey teams, all very close proximity program-wise,” he said. “Rather than having them all with different identities, we thought, why don’t we brand them all the Steelers and it gives it that identification to elite level female hockey.” Officially, the bantam AA team will be the Junior Steelers, while the midget AA team will be the Elite Steelers, leaving the flagship team as the Lloydminster PWM Steelers. It now means that female hockey players coming out of peewee hockey can be Steelers for six years, starting first in bantam before moving onto one of the two midget teams. It creates unity between the programs, which will already see We will the coaching staff of the Steelers midget AAA team helping the two other teams so that by the time they reach the top level, they have already learned from current head coach Eric Morrissette. “We’re trying to create the identity with bantam and midget,” said Hughes. “When people now talking about the Steelers, it’s not just that AAA program. We think it will help promote female hockey as well, so I think it’s a very positive move and again, it will give an identity towards those hockey programs.” With Morrissette back for his second year with the midget AAA team and Shawn Kaschl returning for his second year with the bantam team, only the midget AA team is without a coach. Hughes said they have candidates, but have yet to make an announcement on who will be behind the bench for the teams first season in the newly created midget AA league in Alberta. Across the province, teams are waiting for the Aug. 15 registration deadline, as female players from across Alberta will select the two teams they want to try out for at the midget AAA level. Lloydminster will then have a pretty good idea of who they will have coming out to their main camp which begins on Aug. 26. “We should have a good idea by then of who we will have for main camp and how many kids have chosen Lloydminster as their second opportunity,” said Hughes. “Eric has been working on some players from our of town, had them come for a tour of the facility and talked to them about the program. So he has a couple of players that are signed as far as player agreements.” The midget AAA Steelers will also get their own dressing room at the Servus Sports Centre, allowing the girls to leave their equipment at the rink, a nicely added touch to the program. The midget and bantam AA camps will take place in September. FIX! Onsite cell phone repair & unlocking of all makes of smart phones. Ufone Wireless & Electronics Ltd.

That also includes Lloydminster, that has utilized a power hitting offence and shut down defence to earn the top spot in Alberta. That’s why Harvie wants this week to be no different than any other week for the Liners. The competition will be higher, but if Lloydminster sticks to the process that works, they can see themselves playing in the playoff rounds past Wednesday, aiming for a top 10 spot in the country and perhaps a medal.

There are still certain things you need to do and you’re either doing your job and executing or you’re not, regardless of who you are facing.” The Liners will make the trip this year across the country for nationals, but next season the U18 tournament comes to Lloydminster. While some of the Liners won’t be with the team next year due to age and next season is a long ways away, Harvie said this year’s results do matter, because they don’t want other teams thinking Lloydminster is hosting just so they can play in the tournament. They want to prove they deserve to be there. “We want to establish that name and reputation of a team that has to be reckon with when we are at home.” sponsors and keeping the purse high for the riders. But Lashburn, and their plenty of 80-plus point rides, is still going strong after 13 years and even benefits slightly from other small communities cancelling their shows this past year. It has made Lashburn one of the only games in town and riders on the PBR Canadian Touring Pro circuit still need to earn points and money as they head towards the PBR Canada finals and other major rodeo events. So that is why the Brad Phipps Memorial Bull Rider is expecting top quality riders for Friday night. “We are benefiting from it actually, it’s terrible to say, but because events cancelling, we have very good bull riders coming,” said Stene. “We have quite a few of the guys who competed at the Calgary Stampede, the Built Ford Tough series in the United States there are guys coming up to our event.

By following the five per cent rule, a philosophy of making small logistical or logical changes to an operation, farmers can add net profit to their bottom line and ensure business is sustainable in the long term. “There’s an important mental shift for farmers to make, and that’s adopting more of a management role where they are really working on the business rather than in the business,” explained Gwen Paddock, national director of agriculture at RBC. Adopting a holistic management strategy is a great way to start. This can be as simple as reframing the cost per acre to cost per bushel, considering input costs rather than just revenue, or incorporating new habits and ways of thinking. But farmers also need a solid financial management strategy, one that’s easy to develop and follow. Here are some practical tips: 1. Write it down: Put pen to paper and jot down the goals you need to achieve each quarter. For example, in the first quarter finalize your budget. In the second quarter, analyze your repairs and maintenance. Take a course on futures puts and calls for your marketing strategy. And in the fourth quarter consider meeting with Farmers can profit by using the five per cent rule, a philosophy that calls for making small logistical or logical changes to an operation. your accountant to discuss ways to improve things next year. 2. Do the numbers: Ensure your internal accounting system is on an accrual basis. Compare your actual results to your budget quarterly. 3. Prioritize: Make a list of which tasks need to get done to achieve your goals each quarter and identify what’s really important versus what just makes you busy. While it’s easy to hope for success, hope is not a plan. Even small changes can help ensure your business is sustainable for the long term. 24 REAL ESTATE LLOYDMINSTER SOURCE I WWW.LLOYDMINSTERSOURCE.COM I Thursday, August 4, 2016 REAL ESTATE LLOYDMINSTER SOURCE It’s a matter of perspective after winning American Idol. Her show was tightly scripted and very impersonal. This last Sunday her maturity as an entertainer and person shone through. She even talked about her “Canadian” family (her husband Mike Fisher grew up in Ontario) and had the crowd eating out of her hand. But country music is often also about the message and that usually comes from the personal experience of the song writer. It can be hard sometimes to appreciate that the delivery of a song may change but the commitment and skill of the artist is as strong as their predecessors. Listening to Sam Hunt rap some of his lyrics didn’t sit well with me until I really tuned into what he was saying. He grew up in a small town in Cedartown, GA. population 9,500. One of his bestselling songs to date describes quite honestly what it is like to see an ex-girlfriend get on with her life while you still grieve the relationship that was. As I get older and gather more life experience I try really hard to understand what my clients are going through. Transitions can be hard. It may be the liquidation of the largest asset in their financial portfolio, but it also can be a signal that life is changing forever, so we Realtors see a full range of emotions akin to someone experiencing a significant loss, even if it really isn’t. Just like grief, the stages cannot be rushed and must be gone through in order to heal. It is so rewarding to see that same person again years later, but this time smiling and content, telling you MIDWEST MINUTE by Vern McClelland www.vernmcclelland.com We have just returned from the Big Valley Jamboree, a three day, four night country music festival in Camrose, Alta. Along with a group of friends this was our 24th consecutive year. All of our families know better than to plan anything else for the August long weekend. It’s a time for fellowship, laughter, and relaxation and to listen to some of the world’s best—and not so good—artists in the genre. We went to our first major concert in Calgary back in 1974 to listen to Merle Haggard and, in the intervening years, have had the privilege of seeing a number of rising stars, plus those who were largely one hit wonders. A young Garth Brooks came to Craven on a scorching hot July day back in the late 80s and really had to work really hard to get the crowd that day to respond to his songs. Last month he played to sold out crowds in Saskatoon and I bet everyone who attended would go see him again in a heartbeat. It’s funny how hard work with talent wins over people. A good entertainer actually knows where he or she is actually performing that night and tries to relate to the crowd. A good example is Carrie Underwood.

But through proper succession planning, honest dialogue, and using a business-first family approach, you can ensure a successful enterprise for years to come. “The hard work of farming can pale in comparison to planning a farm’s transition to the next generation,” cautions Gwen Paddock, national director of agriculture at RBC. “But it can be a positive experience and being grateful for what you have in order to be worthy of what you want is the real key when it comes to family business.” The conversation can be awkward and difficult, but these four tips will help everything go smoother and ensure your business thrives for years to come: 1. Operate as a business-first family, not familyfirst business. Make sure the right leader with their “skin in the game” is in place to take action and make decisions that are best for the business, not out of sympathy or based on automatic heirs. 2. Discuss goals openly and honestly. Agree up front on realistic goals that best serve the business. Draw up legal documents—don’t rely solely on wills—and ensure the senior generation is financially secure outside the business. 3. Ask the right questions. These include: Do you really want this business to continue? Why are you (senior and younger generation) doing this? When is this going to transition? 4. Consider an outside perspective. In certain instances the advice from a neutral party like a succession coach can help implement a conflict management plan.

Are roofers supposed to use safety equipment in case they fall? Signed Nervous Neighbour Dear Nervous: Anyone working at a height of three metres or more is required to use fall protection equipment. Falls from any height are a common cause of serious injury and even death in the workplace. Around 20 per cent of the workplace incidents reported to Alberta Occupational Health and Safety since January 2012 involve falls. Workers must be equipped with a full-body harness attached to an anchor point if a worker might fall a vertical distance of three metres or more. Fall protection is also required over an unusually dangerous surface, such as uncapped rebar or other construction materials. Guardrails must be installed if a worker might fall a vertical distance of more than 1.2 metres and less than three metres. The three-metre fall distance is measured from the point from which a worker may fall. The distance the worker would fall must be less than the distance to the nearest object/surface below the worker. The vertical height that a worker may roll or slide down the sloped roof before they lose contact with the roof is not considered to be part of the “fall distance.” If the worker is working close to the gable end of a roof (in residential construction) then that height is included. It is the employer’s responsibility to ensure their workers are protected as much as possible. That includes having the proper equipment on site and ensuring all employees are trained in its use. Employers should ensure only competent, trained workers are up on the roof or other structure. OHS actively patrols worksites to ensure all workers and employers are being safe. Do you like helping people look & feel their best? Apply for this opportunity • Great atmosphere • 4 days per week • Competitive wages • Health plan available • Late night & weekend hours Falls from any height can be extremely dangerous and are still a common cause of serious injury and death on Alberta worksites. For some who aren’t working safe, it could mean a $200 to $500 ticket. In fact, OHS officers issued 1,605 orders from April 2015 to April 2016 and more than half of them were related to fall protection. If you come across a worksite where workers are up high and clearly not protected, you can call Occupational Health and Safety at 1-866-4158690. You can also file a complaint online at work. alberta.ca/ohs. For more information on fall protection or any other workplace health and safety issues, go to work.alberta.ca/ohs.

We tip our hat to a true Cowboy. A strong man devoted to his family, friends and community. A son, brother, husband, father, uncle and papa. He always made time for the ones he loved. Maybe he was enjoying a coffee on the back deck, a cool one in the garage or making milkshakes and popcorn for the grandkids. No matter, it was sure to include many stories followed by even more laughs. Chuck’s family would like to thank everyone for the visits, baking, meals and phone calls and for taking the time to be with us during Chuck’s battle with cancer. Thank you to Vermilion Health Care Complex and Islay Home Care for their guidance and care. A special thank you to the Lea Park Rodeo committee for the honor guard, Grant Meiklejohn, Lorne Larson and Lloyd Gray for the kind words. Thank you to McCaw’s Funeral Home for their expertise, Colleen Hozack for the luncheon and to everyone who made Chuck’s “Celebration of Life” a memorable one. Chuck is lovingly remembered by: his loving and devoted wife Rhonda; his children: Jodi (Brent) Bowman, Brandy (Chris) Malo, Cody (Nichol) Berg; his grandchildren: Brayden and Katie Bowman, Grady and Emry Malo; his siblings: Dwight (Donna) Berg, Twila (Dave) Kenyon, Bob (Gloria) Berg, Pat Berg, Kathy (Misch) Berg; as well as numerous nieces, nephews and other relatives and friends. Donations may be made to Lea Park Rodeo Memorial Fund. CAREERS AND CLASSIFIEDS Call to place your Memoriam or Obituary. 306-825-5111 Obituary SIDEBOTTOM: William “ROY” Sidebottom passed away on June 26, 2016 at the Lloydminster Hospital after a lengthy illness. He was 88. Roy was born on the farm, east of North Battleford on Easter Sunday, April 8, 1928. Remarkably, he was 79 years old before his birthday was on Easter Sunday again. Roy attended a rural school, Mount Hope, until Grade 10. As a teenager he played softball and hockey with the local teams. He had a thoroughbred horse called Thunder, that he, with difficulty trained to ride and he even had Thunder pulling a cutter in the winter. After the war, when machinery was hard to get, some Mount Hope farmers formed a Machinery Co-op buying one combine, one tractor one seeder etc. They hired Roy and his cousin Ken to operate the machines, working 24 hours a day so that every farmer had a chance to get his crop in or off on time. About 1948 Roy applied for a job, driving truck for MacKay’s Transport(now Kindersley Transport). He worked for MacKay’s for 23 years hauling freight mostly in Saskatchewan. A strike forced him to look for other employment so he worked at Domtar for about a year. Truck driving was still his love so he got a job hauling mostly gas, for Westcan in Saskatchewan and Alberta. He worked for Westcan for 19 years until he retired. On August 18, 1953, Roy married a Mount Hope girl, Marguerite Keall who was then teaching in Lloydminster. They lived and raised their family in Lloydminster until 1993 when they both retired and moved to Bright Sand Lake where the family had built a large retirement home. Roy loved people and he loved helping people in any way he could. He helped at a Lumber Mill, he helped farmers haul cattle or helped with crops. He helped drive a septic truck. Eventually Roy bought Doug McGowan’s Septic business. He then bought a Mack truck and serviced the area around Bright Sand Lake with “Roy’s Vacuum Service” for many years. Roy was Chairman of the Hamlet of Mowery Beach but was jokingly referred to as “The Mayor”; holding that position for many years. Roy was also a big game hunter. He hunted with his sons and his hunting buddies in the same area in Northern Alberta for over 40 years. Of course when we moved to Bright Sand, Roy was now a non-resident hunter so had to pay dearly for his license and he now needed a “guide”. Roy was scheduled for knee replacement surgery but he cancelled because he had a moose tag to fill! Roy liked to water ski and did so until he was 75. He liked to snowmobile, even going to the mountains a couple of times. He spent many hours driving the boat while family and friends, water skied, knee boarded or tubed. After Roy’s heart surgery we bought a Condo in Lloydminster with the intentions of spending the winters in town and summers at the lake. We managed to get to the lake twice before Roy’s health deteriorated and he spent most of the time in and out of the hospital. Roy was predeceased by his parents, George and Ada Sidebottom, his in laws, Allan and Dot Keall, 2 brothers, Joe and Ernest, 2 sisters, Louise Mino and Bernice Howdle, 1 sister in law Gladys Sidebottom, 3 brothers in law, Gus Mino, Frank Howdle and Buck Chenoweth and 1 son in law Bob Jack Jr. Roy leaves to mourn his loving wife of 62 years, Marguerite; 3 daughters, Gloria Jack, Rhonda (Eric) Davidson, Sharlene (Blain) Waldorf. 2 sons Brad Sidebottom (Lana Malka) and Jeff (Shauna) Sidebottom. 15 grandchildren and 14 great grandchildren; 1 brother Ron Sidebottom and his wife Margaret, 3 sister in laws; Mildred Sidebottom, Arlene Chenoweth, Sharon Bradburn(Art LaRiviere) and numerous nieces and nephews. We want to thank Dr. Kostic, Dr. Antonio and Dr. Sayeed for their care and concern. Also thanks to the nurses and continuing care staff on the third floor. Their teasing and smiles brightened our days. Also thanks to all who visited, sent cards, flowers, food or donations. It was all appreciated. Thanks to McCaw’s Staff who helped us wade through all the “must dos.” It made our life a little easier at a difficult time. THANK YOU!!
