Olympians set to mentor Alberta classrooms
B Y S TEPHANIE L ABBE
P RAIRIES
Coming fall 2013 will be a new
program offered to all of Canada.
Teachers have the chance to have a
Canadian Olympian mentor their
classes for the 2013-2014 school year.
Steve Mesler, a Vancouver 2010
Olympic Gold medalist who’s also a
member of the U.S. four-man bobsled
team, began this program in the U.S. in
2009. He has seen the program grow so
fast he decided to bring it to Canada.
It all began when Mesler was in
Calgary and getting ready to head to
Vancouver for the Winter Olympics.
Mesler and his sister were talking one
day about how enjoyable his life is.
All of Mesler’s friends are Olympians
and Olympic medalists and they
thought, ‘let’s do something from this
life and do something out of the box.’
They decided not to just give speeches
at schools and then never see the
students again.
Mesler began by adopting eight
classrooms in the U.S. and one in
Calgary. He would send them videos
from wherever he was.
“It was ... pretty much just to teach
kids that it was not just the two and a
half weeks on television — that there
was a whole process and what it turned
into and evolved into became Classroom
Champions,” says Mesler.
The program includes students
sending Mesler letters saying he
inspires them, because he cares and
takes the time to stay in contact with
them.
There will be seven to 10 Canadian
Olympians and Paralympians taking
part in the Canadian program this
year. Each athlete will have three to
five classrooms each with which they
will connect throughout the school
year.
Once a month, the athletes will send
videos to each of their classrooms.
The children will get to send videos
back to the athletes once a month as
well.
The program supplies the technology
needed to do the videos as well as to
Skype with the athletes. The athletes
will Skype with the students a few times
throughout the year.
“We want to get technology into the
classrooms,” says Mesler.
He adds he started the program in the
U.S. because that’s where he was living
while he was an American Olympian.
When it really got going, Mesler moved
to Calgary where he currently resides.
He decided it would be beneficial to
introduce it to Canada as well.

program in CO Springs.
Wickenheiser and Lucas Makowsky will
be two of the athletes in this year’s
program.
“The goal would be over the next
couple of years just to be getting more
and more classrooms,” states Mesler.
“It’s been so much fun to watch.”
Mesler explains adults don’t have to
teach children how to make goals, what
adults need to do is teach children how
they can actually achieve those goals
and see what everyday life is like living
with those goals.
The athletes talk to the students
about how to set goals and how to then
go after them. They also talk to the
students about community service.

Alberta
Students learning more about agriculture
A LBERTA
Agriculture is important to more than just farmers
and ranchers. It’s now being taught to Grade 4
students across the province with the Classroom
Agriculture Program (CAP).
The program has been running since 1985 when
Vickie King was able to gather funding from the
Alberta Cattle Commission to jump-start the program.
“CAP was first started as a way to enhance urban
students’ understanding of agriculture and where
their food came from, thereby fostering a greater
respect for the industry and the individuals who make
Alberta-based food production a reality.
It is now offered to both urban and rural Grade 4
students across Alberta,” explains Karen Spelay, the
CAP co-ordinator.
CAP fits perfectly with the Grade 4 curriculum.
Alberta’s minister of education and the minister
of agriculture fully support the program.
“In order to maintain that support and in order
to be a valuable program for teachers we have to
ensure that CAP is informative, engaging and at the
same time curriculum appropriate,” says Spelay.
There is no charge to Grade 4 students who
participate in the program across the province.
When January hits, Spelay begins to pair volunteers
with schools. All of the instructors for the program
are volunteer and have an agriculture background
or experience in the industry.
Between the months of February and June the
volunteers go into the classrooms. The program
involves a one-hour presentation to the Grade 4
students.
“The presentation talks about where food comes
from, the importance of agriculture in Alberta and the
opportunities in agriculture. Each presentation is
somewhat unique, because our volunteers use their
own experience and area of expertise to deliver these
messages,” says Spelay.
The volunteers for the program come from all across
the province. They each come from different areas of
agriculture and each have something different to
share with the students. Volunteers range from
ranchers, farmers, educators, veterinarians, students,
business people and food inspectors.
“Anybody who has a passion for agriculture and is
comfortable speaking in front of children is welcome
to join us,” adds Spelay.
This year alone CAP will present to about 20,000
students in more than 900 classrooms until the end
of June. Since 1985 about 600,000 students have
registered for the program.
“Year after year CAP continues to deliver a highquality learning experience that includes a one-hour
in-class presentation, booklets for each student and
a teacher’s resource kit completely free.”
Schools can register each fall for the program by
mail, fax or email. Registration is free and can be
done at www.classroomagriculture.com.
“It is important for students to take this program
so that they can form a connection with the food they
eat, the products they use and where they come from.
It is also for students to learn about how agriculture
impacts their day-to-day lives. They may not be aware
of the many ways that agriculture is a part of what
they are doing,” says Spelay.
The program is always looking for new volunteers
to help out. Anyone wanting more information
on the program or to volunteer they can visit
www.classroomagriculture.com.
Teachers can apply to have an Olympian mentor their classes
Continued from Page 1
Up to this point, Mesler has helped more than 1,800
students through this program. He says bringing this
program to Canada will nearly double that number.
As well, Mesler is currently doing a pilot project in
Costa Rica.
“The concept is that not only are these kids going to
learn from their specific Canadian Olympian that
adopted their class … they’re also going to be on the
Classroom Champions network,” says Mesler.
Children in Alberta will be able to connect with other
children across the world.
Mesler’s parents were teachers and his sister has a PhD
in educational and social policy, so it makes this program
important to Mesler.
“For me, it’s special because I’m able to give, through
the program, we’re able to give athletes a voice … and
actually allow athletes see the impact they’re making,”
says Mesler.
The program is aimed at students in Kindergarten to
Grade 8. However, Mesler says they have been receiving
many applications from high-school classes and will be
considering them for this program as well.
“The hope is that they have a clear understanding of
how to set and accomplish the goals that they want to
accomplish in their lives,” says Mesler.
There’s a two-round application process. Those classes
which are accepted in the first round will then have to fill
out another application to see if they will be one of the
official 30 classrooms in the first Canadian Classroom
Champions.
There have been so many applications already that
Mesler has decided to extend the application deadline
from April 14 to April 28.
For any teachers wishing to apply for this program,
go to http://www.classroomchampions.org/canada.
The deadline to register is April 28.

Pharmacists concerned about provincial drug changes
B Y K ATIE M AY
A LBERTA N EWSPAPERS
S OUTHERN A LBERTA
White coats flourished on Alberta
streets April 11 as pharmacists
protested province-wide budget cuts.
Waving signs like “Patient care first,”
and “Pharmacists care no matter where,”
more than 100 pharmacists, pharmacy
technicians and patients from 22 local
pharmacies rallied in front of LethbridgeWest MLA Greg Weadick’s constituency
office in Lethbridge the morning of
April 11. They spoke out against recent
government changes to generic drug
prices, fearing future drug shortages, job
losses and service cutbacks, while their
counterparts across the province did the
same.
The budget cuts mean as of May 1,
the Alberta government has lowered its
regulated prices for generic drugs, from
35 per cent of the cost of brand-name
drugs to 18 per cent. The province
maintains the change will help patients
save money on their medications, but
pharmacists say it could end up hurting
patients.
“We are concerned that we won’t be
able to provide the services we were
before because we won’t be able to have
the same staffing levels and we might not
even have the same number of stores —
we think that stores might close.
We’re also concerned that we might
not have access to the drugs to provide
our patients with,” said Lethbridge’s
Stafford Pharmacy pharmacist Jaclyn
Katelnikoff.
Katelnikoff heard from some drug
manufacturers that they can no longer
produce some of the generic drugs at the
lower cost. She worries they may no
longer ship the drugs to Alberta, leaving
patients with only brand-name options.
“It might have saved you money, but
now I don’t have any medication to
provide to you,” she said, and added the
majority of drugs pharmacies deal with
are generic.
Pharmacists are also predicting some
pharmacies will have to cut back their
services or hours of operation because,
in the past, they had used some of that
drug funding to cover the cost of clinical
services that are free for patients.
MLA Weadick was in Edmonton at
the legislature April 11 and couldn’t be
reached for comment.
The government had previously said
the changes would save $40 million this
year. An April 10 news release stated the
province will, among other offerings, give
$500,000 to the Alberta Pharmacists
Association for training and develop a
long-term pharmacy services plan.
Opposition Wildrose Party members
supported the pharmacists during their
own rally in Edmonton April 12, where
Cardston-Taber-Warner MLA Gary
Bikman took part.
“We think that the government and
(Alberta Health) Minister Fred Horne
have not listened and have not consulted
with all of the stakeholders. We think
that the pharmacists play a key role as
front line caregivers and that the health
and care of their patients is being
compromised by the actions of this
government,” he said.
“There’s a chance this government will
actually listen and realize that they’ve
made a mistake. They’ll do some facesaving move, I’m sure, but ultimately
they’re going to have to do that or accept
the reality that they’re going to be
causing some serious health concerns
amongst the patients in Alberta that rely
on the pharmacists for the consultations
that they need about their medications
and all the other important services that
pharmacists provide.”
A petition against the lowered
drug prices, circulated at many local
pharmacies, had about 1,500 signatures
as of April 11.
Greengate Power sells its 300 MW Blackspring Ridge Wind project
B Y CNW
V ULCAN
Greengate Power Corporation has
completed the sale of its constructionready 300 MW Blackspring Ridge Wind
Project to Enbridge Inc. and EDF
EN Canada Inc.
Greengate will provide development
services to Enbridge and EDF EN
Canada during the construction of
Blackspring Ridge.
Located in Vulcan County,
Blackspring Ridge is expected to be
Western Canada’s largest operating
wind energy project upon completion in
2014.
Enbridge and EDF EN Canada will
each own 50 per cent of the project.
Blackspring Ridge represents the
largest investment in wind energy in
Alberta at approximately $600 million.
The sale of Blackspring Ridge follows
the successful sale of Greengate’s
construction-ready 150 MW Halkirk
Wind Project in June 2011.
Halkirk is currently the largest
operating wind energy project in
Alberta, but will be surpassed by
Blackspring Ridge once it is operational.
These two projects totalling 450 MW
are expected to reduce greenhouse gas
emissions by more than 20 million
tonnes over 25 years, provide a clean
source of power to approximately
200,000 homes and result in nearly
$1 billion of investments in wind energy
in Alberta.
“The sale of Blackspring Ridge to
Enbridge and EDF EN Canada ensures
that Western Canada’s largest wind
energy project will be constructed and
that the associated economic and
environmental benefits will be realized,”
said Dan Balaban, president and CEO
of Greengate. “This successful project is
another example of the world-class
development capabilities of our team.”
CIBC World Markets Inc. acted as
financial advisor to Greengate in
connection with the sale of Blackspring
Ridge.
With the sale of Blackspring Ridge
completed, Greengate administrators
will now focus their attention on
advancing the development of other
projects in its portfolio. This portfolio
includes the 150 MW Paintearth Wind
Project which is immediately adjacent
to Halkirk, the 150 MW Wheatland
Wind Project which is immediately
adjacent to the operating 88 MW
Wintering Hills Wind Power Project, and
the 150 MW Stirling Wind Project which
is in close proximity to the operating 30
MW Chin Chute Wind Power Project.
Greengate is a privately-held
renewable energy project developer
based in Calgary.

Nanton
Nanton friends pursue adventure, but not on the Amazing Race
Two Nanton area men grew up together
and live for adventure.
J.R. Comstock from Stavely and good
friend Chris Koch from Nanton decided to
try out for Amazing Race Canada, but
found out March 25 they didn’t make it
onto the show.
Koch is currently working in agriculture
in Nanton with family friends and
travels around doing some motivational
speaking. Comstock works as a
firefighter in Calgary while also working
in construction.
Born with no legs and no arms hasn’t
changed Koch’s ability to do most things.
He says he does pretty much everything
other people do just in a different way.
Koch was watching the Amazing Race
one Sunday with his mother, who
is a fanatic of the show, when it was
announced there would be auditions for
Amazing Race Canada. His mom said he
should try out with J.R.
Koch and Comstock put together their
audition tape and sent it in.
“It was phenomenal,” states Koch
about the amount of attention he and
Comstock received from posting their
audition video on the web.
Koch posted it on YouTube and then
posted it on his Facebook page.
He couldn’t believe the number of
shares the video received.
“It makes you proud of being from such
a fantastic community that gets behind
everyone and supports everyone,” adds
Koch.
The Calgary Sun wrote an article on
the pair and it was also in the Edmonton,
Winnipeg and Toronto Sun as well.
CTV also did a news story on the duo.
“Even though we didn’t get selected for
the race it was still a pretty cool trip for
that three weeks or however long it took
for when we put up our videos and our
application to when we found out via
tweet,” says Koch.
Koch had been checking his voicemail
and email constantly to see if they had
made the show. A friend of one of Koch’s
friends found out she didn’t make the
show. That triggered Koch to check on
twitter and there he saw a tweet from
Amazing Race officials that all of the
contestants had been contacted.
At that point, Koch and Comstock
realized they didn’t make the cut.
The two have been working on a project
called ‘If I Can’ for about four years. Koch
says it began as an idea for a travel show.
They did a trip to Brazil for about a
month to do some backpacking.
That trip was taken to answer the
question as to what level of travelling
would Koch be able to do and was this
realistic. Koch found out it was an
astounding yes; he could travel.
Koch and Comstock record videos every
now and then including snowboarding,
wakeboarding, knee boarding and other
trips. Last winter, Koch went to Europe
for three months.
“It’s now morphed into spreading an ‘If I
Can’ message to people via presentations,
motivational speaking whether it be
schools or conventions,” says Koch
adding it has been a fun project so far.
He would still love it if the project could
get turned into a television show.
Koch says he and Comstock were
disappointed they didn’t make it on to
Amazing Race Canada, but at the same
time, they weren’t expecting much
knowing there were hundreds of
Screen captures from YouTube
Chris Koch and J.R. Comstock had hoped to compete on Amazing Race
Canada, but unfortunately were not accepted. Below is Koch getting ready to
do some farm chores.
applicants trying to make the show as
well.
They have appreciated the support they
have received.
“The support has been awesome,” says
Koch.
He would be curious to find out why
they didn’t make it, if there was
something missing from their video, or if
the producers just thought Koch wouldn’t
be able to do everything on the show.
In the hopes there will be an Amazing
Race Canada Season 2, Koch and
Comstock plan on trying again.
Koch says people he knows don’t treat
him differently, but random people stop
him frequently saying he’s such an
inspiration and thank him for talking at
the schools.
“It also gives me a very good opinion on
people and how amazing and how kind
they truly are. Unfortunately, we have
this cynical idea in our head that society
is going to hell and there’s so many bad
people out there,” says Koch.
When speaking, Koch motivates people
to do things that are out of their comfort
zone. His theme is “if I can do it, anybody
can. You just have to believe you can and
try your hardest.”
He tells people to go out and travel.
It’s a great opportunity to see other
places that one isn’t used to and try new
activities.

Irrigation industry improving efficiency
B Y R OSE S ANCHEZ
S OUTHERN A LBERTA
Alberta’s irrigation industry is making
strides to conserve water and improve
efficiency.
Ron McMullin, executive director of the
Alberta Irrigation Projects Association
(AIPA), shared what is happening in
the irrigation industry with people
attending the annual general meeting
of the South East Alberta Watershed
Alliance, March 19.
The industry has set up a plan to help
improve efficiency and conserve water.
It has various targets set out including
increasing efficiency by 15 per cent;
that 70 per cent of irrigated lands will be
under best management practices;
diversions will be kept below 2005
references; and a 15 per cent increase
in productivity.
So far the industry is doing well
to meet its targets. McMullin said a clear
decline can be seen in diversion rates
and water has been made available for
use by others through amending and
transferring licenses. Efficiency has
increased by 22 per cent, more than the
15 per cent target, and productivity has
increased by 16 per cent.
“We’ve come a long way and we are
on track to meet our goals,” he added.
About nine billion cubic metres of
water flows into the South Saskatchewan
River system every year and 3.451 billion
cubic metres is allocated to irrigation.
There are 13 irrigation districts in the
province varying in size from 410,000
acres in the St. Mary’s River Irrigation
District to the 1,100 acres handled by
the Ross Creek Irrigation District.
Irrigation water helps grow a variety
of food crops as well as seed crops and
livestock feeds, said McMullin. He added
there is more canola produced in Canada
now than wheat.
2013
“Because of irrigation, we have the
opportunity to grow a great diversity
of crops.”
McMullin said half the mint flavouring
produced for North American use is
provided by mint farms in the Burdett
area.
As a result of the irrigation industry
there are jobs created, recreational
facilities such as golf courses can be
watered and individuals can enjoy
camping and fishing. Irrigation is also
closely connected to the livestock
industry.
“One benefit you don’t see very often
is we are providing habitat for waterfowl
and wetlands.”
McMullin also spoke about the Alberta
Water Council (AWC), which he sits on
as the AIPA representative. That council
includes 24 members set up to be an
advisory body to provide advice to the
Alberta government about water policy
issues.
The three key projects the council is
working on surround conservation,
efficiency and productivity. The Water for
Life strategy set out a goal of increasing
efficiency of water use in the province by
30 per cent from 2005 to 2015, explains
McMullin.
AWC sub-committees research how
to deal with various issues and then
report their findings back to the council.
That information can then be used by
government to help make decisions
surrounding water.
Some of the work being done
surrounds non-point source pollution
and developing a framework for
management of riparian areas in the
province as well as aquatic invasive
species management.
In the spring of 2014, a symposium
will focus on the re-use of water and
how to use gray water.

Drivers can be very
dangerous especially
when they speed
Driving faster than the posted speed can have many dire
consequences.
The most obvious is that if a driver is going fast he or she hits
harder and since it takes that much longer to stop than if going
slower, the chances of being involved in a crash are much greater.
As a vehicle’s speed increases, drivers’ reaction times and
stopping distances increase; vehicles become more difficult to
maneuver; and the severity of crash outcomes increases.
A person should to ask himself, “Could I live with the
consequences of hurting or maybe
even killing another person just
because I was in a hurry?”
Even small increases in speed above
the posted speed limit can mean the
difference between life and death,
especially for pedestrians.
According to the Alberta Department
of Transportation, when struck by
a vehicle at 40 km/h, the probability
of pedestrian death is approximately
Randy
20 per cent; at 60 km/h crash speed,
the same probability goes up to
80 per cent.
Aside from the risk of injury and
REGIONAL TRAFFIC
SAFETY CO-ORDINATOR death it can also affect a person’s bank
account and driving privileges. If a
person is caught exceeding the maximum speed limit as posted, it
gets very expensive — very fast.
Speeding fines start at $57 for one kilometre over the limit and go
up from there, maxing out at $351 for 50 kilometres over the posted
speed limit. Speeds in excess of 50 KMPH over the limit will land a
driver in court explaining the situation to a judge. Along with the
standardized fines one can receive points on a driver’s license
which, if a person accumulates too many, can lead to a revocation
of driving privileges and a future of much higher insurance rates.
There are also side benefits to “speed management” that a person
may not have thought of including lower carbon dioxide emissions,
less air pollution and noise and certainly better fuel consumption.
Yes, it might take a driver a minute or two longer to get there but
it might be the difference between a trip to the hospital and actually
arriving at the intended destination.

Letter to the Editor
Albertans must stand up for vulnerable citizens
E DITOR :
Welcome to Alberta, where the rich get richer
and the elderly and those with developmental
disabilities get their programs slashed.
Alberta Health Services has announced they will
again be paying out large bonuses to numerous
executives. We are talking about possibly more
than 80 bonuses. In the past, some of these
bonuses have been 50 per cent of the base
salaries. What is going on with our system? If a
doctor saves a life, or a nurse cares for extra
patients, do they get a bonus? What about our
teachers, who teach Alberta’s future adults? Will
they receive extra pay for extra dedication? I think
not.
I think it is humorous the Alberta government is
willing to slash 45 per cent of the Community
Access Programs for people with developmental
disabilities in favour of “outcome-based” programs.
(Meaning they will only fund programs that place
people with special needs in jobs.) If we look at
“outcomes,” why on earth are we still rewarding
health boards, when the Alberta health system is in
such a mess?
Alison Redford is willing to take away programs
that encourage inclusion and provides support for
society’s most vulnerable, but will allow this kind of
misspending? The Alberta government does have
$187 million to spend over the next three years, to
replace video lottery terminals. The rationale is the
new machines will reduce problem gambling.
The new machines will only take $100 at a time,
but that does nothing to stop gamblers from
moving to another VLT. I think it’s nice Alberta can
spend close to $200 million to help gamblers, but
can I remind Premier Redford that gambling is a
choice ... having a disability or being elderly isn’t.
The glory days of Robin Hood are long past, but
I do believe it is time for Albertans to take action.
Dust off your keyboard or pull out your pen.
Let this government know that the people of
Alberta demand fair treatment of our most
vulnerable citizens.

proven over and over again in Alberta, voters have
short memories. But she is up for a leadership review
with her own Progressive Conservative Party this fall.
While most politicians discount polls, some party
faithful may feel a change in leadership is a good
public relations move.
Either way there can be no argument the provincial
budget did hurt those most vulnerable in this province
— seniors and children. We’re only starting to see the
ramifications of that budget now and the fallout could
last for some time. It would be wise for Redford to take
some heed of the public opinion polls and start
thinking about her public image now rather than
when voters head to the polls and really tell the PCs
how they feel.

Souther n Alberta
Conservation groups restate vision for the Castle
Special Place in the South Saskatchewan Regional Plan
S UBMITTED
S OUTHERN A LBERTA
As the South Saskatchewan Regional
Land use Plan nears the next phase of
consultation, conservation groups who
have long advocated for permanent
protection of the Castle Special Place
are re-stating the vision for this area.
The Castle Special Place is part of the
transboundary Crown of the Continent
ecosystem and is the headwaters for
nearly one third of the water in the
Oldman Water Basin. It is an area
of international ecological significance
as well as affording recreational and
economic opportunities for locals and
visitors.
In 2010, a locally-driven Working
Group created a draft proposal for the
Castle through 12 months of extensive
dialogue and information sharing.
This group included 37 organizations,
businesses, industry, recreationalists,
grazing lease holders and adjacent
landholders who worked on a
consensus basis to discuss and weigh
alternative approaches and trade-offs
for management of the area.
“The outcome of this initiative was a
recommendation to protect the Castle
Special Place as a Wildland Provincial
Park,” says Peter Sherrington, of the
Castle-Crown Wilderness Coalition,
who participated in the initiative.
“Contrary to what some people believe,
such a designation would allow the
local economy to prosper from
recreational uses such as camping,
skiing and regulated OHV use on
designated trails, while protecting
watershed values for millions of
users downstream across the Prairie
provinces.”
Public opinion studies conducted
in the region indicate an overwhelming
majority (82 per cent) of regional
residents believe protecting the
watershed should take priority over
recreational activities in the area.
Seventy-seven per cent of residents
also oppose clear-cut logging in the
Castle and 74 per cent support
legislating this Special Place as a
Wildland Provincial Park.
“Legislated protection of the Castle
Special Place and land-use planning
throughout Southern Alberta does not
mean that recreationalists and other
users would be excluded from the area,”
says Katie Morrison, conservation
director for the Canadian Parks and
Wilderness Society — Southern
Alberta. “However, unregulated and
inappropriate uses of the Castle and
other areas on the Eastern Slopes such
as clear-cut logging and new access
creation by OHVs are degrading the
landscape’s ability to support critical
values such as watershed protection,
wildlife habitat and even the scenic
value that recreationalists are there
to enjoy.”
The upcoming South Saskatchewan
Regional Plan aims to achieve Alberta’s
long-term economic, environmental
and social goals and to ensure good
stewardship of the province’s natural
areas.
“Water security is a vital strategic
issue for irrigators, municipalities and
others in the Oldman and Bow basins,”
says Kevin Van Tighem, a fourthgeneration southern Alberta rancher
and former superintendent of Banff
National Park. “That’s why watershed
health has to be the single highest
priority in the mountains and foothills
of the region. The Castle is a small
area, yet it produces a third of the
Oldman River’s water. That alone
argues for its protection and we need
to look at how we manage the rest
of the headwaters area in terms
of forestry, recreational use and
conservation to restore their
productivity for water and other
benefits.”
“The Castle is a key part of the
Eastern Slopes landscape and its full
legal protection is a critical step in
reforming forest management practices
throughout the region,” adds Morrison.
“We have seen co-operation between
conservationists, industry and other
stakeholders to produce solutions on
this landscape.”
The oil and gas industry was part
of the Working Group that supports
protection of the Castle Special Place.
“We’d like to work with the Ministry of
Environment and Sustainable Resource
Development and the timber industry
to ensure these ecological and social
values are represented on the Southern
Alberta landscape while taking a new
look at management of the region.”
Frank Slide Interpretive Centre will celebrate special anniversary
C ROWSNEST P ASS
The Frank Slide Interpretive Centre will
celebrate the 110th anniversary of the
Frank Slide April 29.
At 4:10 a.m on April 29, 1903, Turtle
Mountain came crashing down on the
Town of Frank with 82 million tones
of rock. While only lasting about
90 seconds, the slide completely
destroyed and covered the eastern
outskirts of the town. The slide
also covered two kilometres of the
Canadian Pacific Railway.
The town had a population of about
600 people and about 100 of those were
in the direct path of the slide with 23 of
those 100 living to tell the tale.
An interpretive centre was built on the
fallen rocks and that’s where it stands
today, attracting tourists, scientists and
locals.
Cathy Pisony, the program co-ordinator
for Frank Slide, says it has been about
10 years since the museum has done any
form of commemoration such as this.
“Over those 10 years, we have learned
more about the people involved in the
1903 Frank Slide and of course the
monitoring program has been running
since 2000 and they have learned a great
deal about Turtle Mountain and the 1903
Frank Slide, so it is important to pass
this information on,” explains Pisony.
To mark the 110th anniversary
of Frank Slide, an event is being put
on with a slide presentation showing
images that have not been seen by
many people. As well, there will be a
commemoration ceremony, reception
and special presentations.
The event is free to attend to coincide
with free admission to the museum for
the day.
“To mark this tragic event, the Frank
Slide Interpretive Centre in co-operation
with the Crowsnest Historical Society and
Crowsnest Heritage Initiative will offer
a commemoration ceremony at the
gravesite along the old Frank Road
to be followed by a reception and special
presentations at the Frank Slide
Interpretive Centre,” says Pisony.
The commemoration ceremony begins
at 11 a.m. followed by the reception at
12:30 p.m. with a presentation on the
Turtle Mountain Monitoring Project.
Project lead, Corey Froese will do the
presentation on the project at 1:15 p.m.
Pisony adds there will be a special
historical photo exhibit on the town of
Frank and the slide.
Showing in the theatre throughout the
day will be award-winning, audio-visual
presentations about the events of the
Frank Slide and the aftermath.
It has been found the main cause of the
slide was due to the unstable structure of
the mountain.
The Frank Slide Interpretive Centre is
located 1.5 kilometres off Highway 3 in
the Crowsnest Pass and is operated by
Alberta Culture. It’s open daily for visitors
to learn about the tragic events and
research results.

Granum
Granum releases Centennial history book
G RANUM
The history of Granum has once again been put
on paper for everyone to read.
Memories of the Past — Centennial of
Incorporation 1910-2010 is the name of the new
book that was created by the Granum Historical
Board. With the first history book being published
in 1974, the board felt it was time for a new one.
There are many new people in the community
as well as many significant changes in the town
which celebrated its centennial in 2010.
That’s when the work began on creating this
book.
Almost three years later, it has been published
and went on sale in December 2012.
“It wasn’t kind of a history book it was more
of what we call a memory book,” says Mike
Sherman, the Granum Historical Board
chairman.
People in the community were asked to either
update their histories for this new book, or add
their histories if they are new to the town since
the first book was published.
Everything in the book was a collaboration of
the community. There are family and community
histories in the book. Areas such as the
centennial celebrations are included with many
photographs in the 100-page book.
People also provided their memories of Granum
and what they thought of the community.
The historical board takes care of the museum
in Granum. They published the books with the
help of Warwick Printing in Lethbridge.
The board has been around for about 10 years
and when Sherman was the town’s mayor years
ago, he felt it was important to preserve the
town’s history and have a museum within the
community.
That museum is located in a wooden jail that
was made for the North West Mounted Police at
the turn of the century. There were only two
wooden jails in Alberta with the other in Standoff.
However, the one in Standoff burnt down, so the
only one standing in Alberta is in Granum.
“It’s extremely important to preserve our history.
If we don’t, it’s just lost forever and we must learn
from our past,” explains Sherman.
The museum has been a blessing for the
community and Sherman loves being part of it.
“It’s been the labour of love all along and we
keep adding on each year and people keep
contributing things to us and it’s really quite
spectacular at this point in time,” says Sherman
about the museum and the historical board.
“I learn something every day at that museum.”
He adds people go into the museum with stories
and artifacts that astound him.
“It’s absolutely amazing that the things you
learn from it and it’s just word-of-mouth,” says
Sherman. “It’s absolutely incredible the amount
of history in such a small, little town and I learn
everyday.”
It cost the historical board close to $4,500 to
publish 150 copies of the book. The board is
selling them for $30 each.
Sherman says in 2010 when officials announced
they would be making this book, people were
already pre-ordering copies. About 66 copies
were pre-ordered prior to it being published.
As of April 10, there were only about 10 books
left. Sherman says the historical board is looking
at a second round of printing in the near future.
The point of creating this book was to preserve
the history of the community and share it with
everyone. It wasn’t a fundraiser for the historical
board.
Anyone wishing to purchase one of the final
copies can contact Mike Sherman at 403-6872265.

The history of Granum will not be forgotten with its newlypublished history book. With the popularity of the book, the
historical board is looking at publishing more copies.
Pincher Creek
Pincher Creek library officials planning for renos
P INCHER C REEK
Officials with the Pincher Creek and District
Municipal Library will be doing some much-needed
renovations in the coming months.
Janice Day, the librarian and manager of the library,
says anyone who has stepped foot in the building
knows it needs some work. Currently, the library is
one large room and there is nowhere for quiet time or
for people wishing to use internet programs such as
Skype.
Day explains the only separate rooms are a storage
space and her office. A couple of years ago, a project
brought video conferencing equipment into all libraries
in southern Alberta.
Companies and individuals have gone into the
library asking if they could do interviews on the
computers with video conferencing, but the library
has had to turn them away due to not having separate
rooms.
The only way people could use the videoconferencing
equipment would be after library hours, so they don’t
disrupt the rest of the library.
“So, we need a room that …people can go in when
they need quiet and shut the door,” says Day.
Part of the renovations will include creating a
multipurpose room where people can close the door
and either do video conferencing or enjoy a quiet
room. The room will be soundproof and have bi-fold
doors that can open it up when not in use.
Other renovations include moving the children’s
area, replacing carpet and taking down one room.
These renovations will be Phase 1 of an expansion.
All of the renovations will be done to the south wall of
the library, because when the expansion process
starts years down the road, that will be done to the
north and east ends.
Shell Canada is donating $50,000 for the
renovations and when Day heard how much they
would be giving, she was excited.
“It was thrilling. I haven’t applied for too many
grants,” says Day.
As well, the Town of Pincher Creek and the
Municipal District of Pincher Creek are donating
$75,000 and the Lethbridge Community Foundation
is donating $5,000.
Every year, the Town of Pincher Creek and the M.D
of Pincher Creek also give the library about $90,000
for an operating grant. Day says both the Town and
M.D. help significantly with the library.
“The very important thing to us too is that it’s tied in,
in the honour of Stephanie Hardy,” says Day regarding
the Shell Canada grant.
Hardy was always a strong library supporter and
was always raising money. She was also an active
member of the Friends of the Library.
Her family lived close to Shell’s gas plant between
Waterton Lakes National Park and Pincher Creek.
Hardy passed away last March from cancer.
Day says the estimated total cost of this project will
be between $250,000 and $300,000.
The library staff have known for several years the
facility needed upgrades. They have been doing
everything they can to maximize the space
they have.
Day isn’t sure when the upgrades will begin or how
long the work will take. There may be a short time
when the library will have to be closed during the
renovations.
“I’m eagerly looking forward to it,” says Day about
the work to be done.
“I think … (the community) will find in the library
more of what they need and asked for — a place to
work,” says Day.
For just over 50 years, Shell Canada has operated
in the Pincher Creek area.
Rob Sinclair, the community affairs co-ordinator
for the region for Shell Canada, says it was important
for both the library and Shell itself to donate this
money. It will benefit the entire community while
demonstrating Shell Canada cares about helping out
local communities.
“It’s more of a community initiative than anything.
The library is used by a number of students in the
community and public in general, so the community
overall really benefits by having the upgrades done at
the library,” says Sinclair.
He adds the library approached Shell Canada and
submitted an application for funding in regards to the
renovations. Once the library figured out how much
the total project would cost, Shell Canada then
decided on what amount would be realistic to donate.
“As a corporate industry in the area, it just makes
good sense to support the community.”
He adds all of the employees at Shell Canada
near Pincher Creek are from the community.

Glenwood
Students get a taste of victory with special Mini Olympics event
S UBMITTED
D IVISION
G LENWOOD
BY
W ESTWIND S CHOOL
The Olympic Games, whether it’s the summer or
winter version, never fails to capture the world’s
imagination.
While some of the events might seem a little foreign
and competitors were more likely to be wearing face
paint than numbered bibs, it was plain to see the
annual Mini Olympics was an undeniable hit at
Glenwood School.
The Westwind Kindergarten to Grade 9 school,
inspired by the 1988 Winter Olympics in Calgary,
recently celebrated the 25th anniversary of its unique
version of that athletic showcase.
The school gym radiated with energy and the event’s
continued popularity was evident in the cheers,
flag waving and ear-to-ear smiles on the faces of all
involved.
“It’s a big deal,” said Glenwood Principal Kelly
Thomas. “Most of the students, when it’s getting time
for Mini Olympics, they get dressed up for it.”
While the event does provide a welcome opportunity
for exercise, he said it’s much more than that.
“It’s a school spirit thing and community
togetherness. You saw some of the parents there (both
cheering and helping out) and it’s just a fun thing that
the kids look forward to each year,” said Thomas.
The student population at Glenwood was divided
into four groups, with
students choosing the nation
they would represent. They
also designed flags, posters
and costumes that were on
display for the grand entry and
throughout the competition.
In the end it was Star Wars
Land edging out Antarctica
for top honours in one of the
closest races in years, while
Canada and Scotland — many
in the latter group decked out
in Braveheart attire — putting
in a strong showing as well.
The Mini Olympics featured

themselves across the gym floor with their arms
while belly up, or down, on skateboards. ‘Fencing’
competitors, meanwhile, were timed on how quickly
they could hammer nails into a section of fence post.
“It’s just like NASCAR, the race is won and lost in
the pits,” said Thomas, while providing commentary
during the rowing doubles event which also made use
of skateboards.
Teacher Boyd Sommerfeldt was inspirational in the
early years of the Mini Olympics and Thomas said
Vice-Principal Ken Selk is owed credit for his efforts
of late to keep the event fresh and fun.
It’s a tradition the school would like to see continue
for many years to come.
“The kids that have been in the school that have
graduated years ago still remember the Mini Olympics
and what they did there, so it’s been a good thing,”
said Thomas.
