After six years serving as a member with the Drumheller town coun-cil, Andrew Berdahl, has made the decision not to run for next elections in October. “Th e commitment is considerable,” said Ber-dahl who has served two three-year terms as an elected offi cial. “I think if one is going to do it properly, then they need to be emotion-ally prepared to commit to all that’s involved.” Berdahl initially as-sumed the role because he felt a change could be made and he could make an impact on the com-

munity. “I think most people put their name forward because they want to make a positive diff er-ence, they want to make life better in the commu-nity,” he said. “I never really thought I would ever run, it’s not something I grew up thinking I would do.” But when election time came around in 2007, he decided to “give it a shot.” “If somebody is moti-vated in good faith, they tend to be a better candi-date,” said Berdahl. While he has enjoyed his time spent as a coun-cil member, Berdahl said the position has made a

signifi cant impact on his life in a variety of ways. “It’s just 38 more things to think about.” He affi rms that in or-der to be a strong can-didate for town council, one must have respect, the ability to commu-nicate, and have an ele-ment of vision. “One needs to have a vision of what it is they want to create in order to make it happen, and the ability to build and maintain positive work-ing relationships,” said Berdahl. “Being a councillor is essentially a leadership position.” Coming into the po-sition as a middle class

working dad, Berdahl believes the role has ef-fectively engaged him to become actively in-volved with organiza-tions most people are not typically involved in. “Our community has a good many people who are capable of being good leaders and who are already doing it in many cases,” he said. “Most of the work a council member does is about fundamental personal skills, how to refl ect, how to be open minded, how to listen to people, and how to com-municate and ask ques-tions.” Although Berdahl has been with council for six years, he believes there is merit to the idea of passing on the torch to another candidate. “Democracy thrives on diversity and so, hav-ing a variety of diff er-ent people who cycle through these positions is the sign of a healthy democracy.” Despite his decision not to run for next elec-tions, Berdahl’s actions are made with the best intentions. “It can be very diffi cult

for an individual to re-tain their freshness and their focus, and I think there is merit to the idea of going away for a little while, living your life and then coming back per-haps at another point.” While the role of be-ing a councillor isn’t all that glamorous, Berdahl said the approximately $14,000 a year salary does help to take some of the sting out of such a demanding position. “Th e remuneration helps keep some bal-ance,” he said. According to Berdahl, the position of council-lor can pose a substan-tial amount of stress on one’s life, on and off the job. “It adds another ele-ment to your relation-ships,” he said. “You wear each decision.” He may be done serv-ing town council after this term, but Berdahl affi rms he will remain politically active in his future endeavours. “If anything, it’s clear-er to me now on all the ways one can be involved in leading their commu-nity.”

As one can expect, the topic of a water park/slide at the Aquaplex comes up often. Either in casual conversation, or from a comment at Town Council, some solution to the absence of another water experience for locals and visitors has yet to be reached. Th ere is cer-tainly a direct connection to pool revenue since the old waterslide was removed prior to Christmas last year. More than one person has said to this writer that without a second water play park option along with the indoor pool, that the Th ree Hills pool, along with others in the area, is where they go for family fun. Patrons want (and expect) that extra value for their recreation dollar and will travel some distance to get it, taking with them food, fuel and accommoda-tion dollars.

Th e town fathers, (and moth-ers), have to fi nd some workable, fi nancially sound, fi scally respon-sible design to solve the problem. Here's is one that might work.

We have no idea what a water-park facility attached to the Aqua-plex will cost, but for arguments sake, say $250,000.

When the change lockers at the pool were replaced some years back, this offi ce was both surprised and disappointed to see the new lockers installed at the old rental price of 25 cents. Th at's the same

price charged for the old lockers installed at the pool when it was built in the 1970's.

Should have charged a loonie.Again, we have no idea what the

change locker rental at the pool would be for a year, but at 25 cents a pop, let's say $5000. If the mecha-nism was changed to a loonie, im-mediately the revenue would rise to $20,000 per year.

Multiply that by 12.5 years and you have your waterpark paid for. Just by somebody changing their clothes. Imagine that! If the chang-es had been made three years ago, there would already be $60,000 in the bank.

Now, if an eff ort were put forth by a committee to do a bit of fund-raising, we feel that enough cor-porate, service club and individual donations would come about that the park would be paid for in even less time, thereby reducing the amount bridge fi nancing required by the town.

Sadly, the Aquaplex operates at a loss, as do most town facilities. Th is is not unusual, as most mu-nicipalities have to subsidize rec-reational buildings with taxpayer dollars. Maybe this idea can catch fi re, so a new waterpark/slide can bring more users, who will rent more loonie lockers, and provide more revenue at the pool.

Give peace a chance, Drumheller. Community Services in Drum-heller is giving that message as part of its fi rst installment of a monthly speaker series being developed by the Town. “We’re trying to start a speaker series in town to give people more resources about bullying and how to stop it,” said Jeannie Lutz, Com-munity Services Coordinator for the Town of Drumheller. Th e series was developed to help combat bullying in Drumheller. Typically bullying is thought to be a problem for children and teenag-ers. Th rough the speaker series, the goal is to teach residents that bully-ing extends well into adulthood. “It’s not just a youth problem. We’re fi nding more and more that it’s a community issue and it takes

the whole community working to-gether to deal with bullying,” said Lutz.

Other communities across the country are taking the matter se-riously as well. Hanna recently passed an anti-bullying bylaw and

Drumheller has a bylaw that covers bullying. Th e fi rst installment of the series is scheduled for April 16 in St. An-thony’s and Greentree Schools and a two hour evening session at the Badlands Community Facility. Th e workshop features Jeff Mc-Cann, who has been presenting to Alberta students and parents for the past 12 years through Th e Make Peace Foundation. “Th is talk will cover why people bully and will get people involved in the presentation,” said Lutz. Further talks have been sched-uled. In May there will be a pre-sentation about the Alberta Help Line, which off ers support to those suff ering from bullying. Th e RCMP will also be giving a presentation regarding cyberbullying. Th e goal is to continue to host monthly talks on the subject of bul-lying.

Residents discuss water issues

Water was on the minds of Drumheller and area residents who participated in A Conversation with Albertans. The Alberta Government has been host-ing community conversations with Albertans to give feedback that may guide future policy on areas including healthy lakes, hydraulic fracturing and water, drinking and wastewater and water management. On March 19 at the Jurassic Inn, these topics were dis-cussed at length by residents.

Drumheller’s title as the dinosaur capital of Canada was cemented last week when CNN re-leased its list of the top ten dinosaur museums in the world.

Th e Royal Tyrrell Mu-seum came in at number fi ve. “We’re absolutely thrilled to be included in the list of the World’s Top Ten Dinosaur Mu-seums. It really shows Alberta is a top desti-nation and we’re one of

the great things Alberta has to off er,” said Mike Dooley, public relations coordinator for the Tyr-rell Museum. “For us it shows what we have here at the museum is very relevant today and we’re just as signifi cant as one of the world’s top sites.”

Th e Tyrrell was among other high caliber in-stitutions from around the world. Th e Museum für Naturkunde in Ber-lin, Field Museum in Chicago, Royal Belgian Institute of Natural Sci-ence in Brussels, and the National Dinosaur Mu-seum in Australia were listed ahead of the Tyr-rell. Th e Tyrrell was the only Canadian museum on the list. “It’s an honour to be on the list with some of the best museums in the world,” said Dooley. Th e accolade comes at a busy time for the Tyrrell. Last year, they opened their new Sea Dragon exhibit, featur-ing a spectacular marine reptile as its centerpiece. Th e Cretaceous Garden, which has been under renovations since fall of 2011, will reopen this spring with a fresh new look. To see the complete list, head to www.drum-hellermail.com and fol-low the links.

Dr. Don Henderson, Curator of Dinosaurs, stands beside one of the newest exhibits at the Royal Tyrrell Museum, the Sea Dragon, which was unveiled last year. The museum

was recently named number fi ve on a list of the top ten dinosaur museums in the world.

Local Drumheller residents have discov-ered a new extreme sport this spring, and all that’s required is a kayak, the north hill entrance into Drumheller, and some favourable spring condi-tions. Th e “sport” has raised quite a few eyebrows af-ter making its internet debut, but for 24-year-old Kelly Henrickson, his younger brother Adam, and their friend Dan-iel Hawryluk, it was a golden opportunity to have some fun during their lunch break from Westergard Ford on April 5. Kevin Burfi eld, a resi-dent living in the Mor-rin area, sparked Kelly’s interest when he sent him a cell phone photo of the spring runoff fl ow-ing alongside the north entrance of Drumheller, located near the airport turn off . “I pretty much decid-ed right then and there that it had to be done,” said Henrickson. Th e idea came up as a result of Henrickson’s father who used to talk about it years ago. But having never tried it be-fore, Henrickson felt that

now was the time. “It just worked out that we had the kayak in the right spot,” he said. “I’ve always kind of wanted to do it before and we’ve always talked about it.” With Hawryluck tak-ing the wheel and his younger brother Adam fi lming the whole expe-rience alongside from the highway, Henrickson hopped in the kayak and began his journey down hill. “It was awesome,” said Henrickson. After making it down as far as he could on the right side of the highway, he portaged across the road and completed the fi nal leg of his journey on the opposite side of the road. “It was a little rough, so I didn’t have the skirt on it,” said Henrickson. “It fi lled the kayak full of

water, and I almost end-ed up in Michichi Creek then into the river. So I had to go for a little bit of a swim.” Henrickson and friends have already be-gun to brainstorm ways they can make the next time more fun. One of the ideas includes bring-ing a canoe and another person into the equation. Although the stunt can only be performed a few days each spring, it’s managed to grab a lot of people’s attention and may just be the next big “extreme sport” to hit Drumheller. “Since there’s no ski hill, or skate park and be-cause of the Town’s lat-est anti dirt biking cru-sade, we’re running out of things to do around here,” said Henrickson. “You have to make your own fun.”

Local resident, Kelly Henrickson, went for a kayak ride down the heavy stream of spring runoff fl owing alongside the north

hill road coming into town, during his lunch break on April 5. photo submitted

While the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band concert is still a few months away, al-ready 650 tickets have been snatched up by music fans. Th e classic band will be performing at the Badlands Community

Facility on June 27. Ran-dy Martin of Karizma Entertainment, who is promoting the show said this type of show is a win-win for the commu-nity. “Not only is it impos-sible for the town to lose money, it is impossible for the town to not make money. Th e only entity

that takes a risk, 100 per cent, is me,” said Martin. Martin has been pro-m o t i n g shows in Alberta for three y e a r s and says he fi lls a niche in com-munities l a r g e r promot-ers over-look. “Nobody is catering to the secondary markets like Drumheller, where they have a facility that holds 1,500-1,700 peo-ple,” he said. “We come into a market where people really appreciate it.” Economic Develop-ment offi cer Bob Crom-well explains the Town of Drumheller has rented the fi eld house to a pro-moter, and is receiving a commission for ticket sales. Th e town also has the opportunity to gen-erate revenue through

bar and food sales. “What it does is allows us, as a community, to

s u p p o r t the event and gen-e r a t e revenues f r o m it,” said C r o m -w e l l , a d d i n g that sev-en spon-s o r s h i p

tables were sold out in the fi rst week. “Th at to me says this community has stepped up large and wants this kind of thing.” Cromwell said the community facility will benefi t from the show. Martin said if success-ful, this could lead to more shows. “Th e way Drumheller has responded, I feel really good about it. At the end of the concert when the numbers are all tallied and there is a successful concert, this could lead to two con-certs a year,” said Martin.

ARIES - Mar 21/Apr 20Aries, take time to sort through some of the paperwork on your desk. You could fi nd there is something important that you overlooked that needs to be addressed.

TAURUS - Apr 21/May 21There are a few things you can’t seem to work out in your head, Taurus. A better idea may be to put everything on paper and per-haps the answer will jump out.

GEMINI - May 22/Jun 21Gemini, there will be a few moments this week when you seem to have a break-through. Maybe it’s in a relationship or you have just the right answers at work.

CANCER - Jun 22/Jul 22Surprising events are in store as you con-tinue to change your views about life-altering events, Cancer. You may fi nd your master plan is entirely turned on its head.

LEO - Jul 23/Aug 23Leo, your energy level is so revved up that others won’t be able to keep up with you. You may have to slow down a little to let others catch up.

VIRGO - Aug 24/Sept 22Virgo, others fi nd it diffi cult to change your opinion once you have your mind set on something. But it still helps to consider if the direction you’re heading is the right way.

LIBRA - Sept 23/Oct 23Libra, you may be feeling a little homesick, especially if you are away on business or on vacation. Try to make the most of the situa-tion even if you’re feeling nostalgic.

SCORPIO - Oct 24/Nov 22Scorpio, if it seems like nothing is going your way, keep in mind there is a master plan in the works. You may not be able to see the resolution, but just be patient.

SAGITTARIUS - Nov 23/Dec 21Sagittarius, there are a few puzzle pieces that you need to get into place and then you’ll have everything worked out. Reward yourself with a night out.

CAPRICORN - Dec 22/Jan 20Capricorn, lay low for awhile rather than drumming up some trouble. Tempting as it is to stir the pot, it may cause more diffi culties for you in the long run.

AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18Aquarius, although you have a few projects on your to-do list, you can’t seem to get started. Instead of looking at the entire list, tackle one task at a time and you’ll get the job get done.

PISCES - Feb 19/Mar 20Pisces, turn your thoughts to creative efforts and you’ll fi nd the days will just fl y by. Before you know it, the weekend will be here.

24-hour Jam gearing up

Patrick Kolafa | inSide Drumheller

Th e Jam keeps getting bigger and is looking to set a new record. Th is of course is the 24-hour Jam, the successful fundraiser for STARS Air Ambulance hosted by Th e Old Grouch’s restaurant. Th ey are coming off one of its most successful events ever, raising about $14,000, along with a gen-erous gift of $5,000 from the Town of Drumheller to support the important service.

Fran Nargang, owner of Th e Old Grouch’s and her husband Garry, understand the importance of STARS. In fact, their grandson today is a healthy 17-year-old thanks to the quick action of STARS af-ter he was hit by a car as a youngster. A number of other residents owe their life to this service. Because of this, they have built the 24-hour Jam into a premier fundraiser in Drumheller. Th e jam begins on Friday, June 7 at 6 p.m. and ends on Saturday at 6 p.m. in that time, dozens of musi-cians, both local and from out of town, take to the stage to belt out some tunes. Th roughout the event there is a silent auction and area residents and businesses donate a variety of items to help raise funds for the Air Ambulance ser-vice. Th is year the Nargang’s have set their sights even higher than last year’s incredible result. To do this, they are looking for silent auction items. For more information, or to support the event, contact Fran at 403-823-5755.

Fran and Garry Nargang are getting ready to host the 24- hour Jam coming up on June 7 at The Old Grouch’s.

International students from the Drumheller Valley Secondary School (DVSS) have been vol-unteering their time ev-ery Sunday and Wednes-day to entertain some of the senior citizens in our community. Th e program, which started up on March 1, appears to be off to a good start as it off ers a mutual cultural learning experience for both stu-dents and seniors. “Th ey need the hours and require the cred-its for grade 12, so we looked around to see what they could do and I immediately thought of the seniors,” said dormi-tory supervisor at DVSS, Margaret Jopp. All grade 12 students at DVSS require 30 hours of volunteer work in order to graduate. Jopp said the program counts towards their volunteer hours and also rewards the students with a few extra credits. Th e students volunteer

their time at Sunshine Lodge every Sunday af-ternoon, and from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. on Wednesdays by entertaining the se-niors in various ways such as, playing live mu-sic, participating in card games, and going for walks. “Th e seniors also teach them a lot as well. Th e g i r l s , and even s o m e of the guys are learning to knit,” s a i d Jopp. In ad-dition to the Sunshine Lodge, the exchange stu-dents also volunteer at other various locations in the community such as the Grace Lutheran Church and the Naza-rene Church. “It’s great for our kids to get out,” Jopp said. “It’s a great cultural experi-ence as well as a learning experience for them.” Although the program

is entirely optional, eight of DVSS’s 43 current international students have willingly invested their time to volunteer in the community. “We hope to make this an ongoing thing,” said Jopp. Despite over coming some diffi culties with

language b a r r i -ers, the program sees stu-d e n t s from In-donesia , N i g e -ria and Vietnam spending time with

seniors. “Some of the students are having a tough time with the language bar-rier but they’re catching on pretty quick,” said Marcel Augey, recre-ation coordinator at the Sunshine Lodge. “At fi rst they were ex-tremely nervous and now they’re just re-ally confi dent and excited about it.”

For current interna-tional student, Emmanu-ella Akobundu, the pro-gram has been a constant learning experience. “At fi rst, I wasn’t sure what to expect,” she said. “I’ve learned to knit, play bingo, and play card games.”“It’s been very nice.”

Grade nine students from Drumheller Valley Secondary School and St. Anthony’s schools will be treated to a mock court trial put on by some of the local lawyers and law offi cials from the community, as part of the annual celebration of Law Day on April 17. A presentation given by the offi ce of the chief medical examiner will take place at the Drum-

heller Court House from 11:45 a.m. to 2 p.m., with the pirate themed court trial taking place afterward until 3 p.m. Th e mock trial is about a noble girl named Elizabeth Swan who be-came a no-good pirate while infi ltrating a pirate ship, dressed as a man by the name of Swanny. Th e pirates eventually found out her true iden-tity one day while they were swimming, and now Swan is suing the pirates for her share of

the treasure that she be-lieves is rightfully hers. Th e purpose of the trial is to give the stu-dents more educa-tion and information through the law system, which they are currently learning about in school. Prizes will be given to the grade nines includ-ing, iPads and iTunes cards. Celebrated across Alberta, Law Day com-memorates our nation’s adoption of the char-ter of rights which was signed on April 17, 1982.

Grade nines get special treat for Law Day

The Drumheller Provincial Court House is getting ready for this year’s Law Day, which will see members of the court dress

up in hilarious costumes and put on a mock trial to teach students in Drumheller how the law system works.

The Koran was added when the lodge welcomed a member of the Islamic faith on his own Holy Book. It is the custom of Freemasons to honour the various faiths of its members by placing their respective Holy Book on the altar.

I have been looking at myself in the mirror lately and I haven’t been liking what I see. Th ere is some excess baggage building up. With that in mind, I decided to shed some of my bad habits, get in shape, and have vowed to run in this year’s Di-nosaur Valley Half Mar-athon.

To get an idea of the magnitude of this decision, I should ex-plain where I am com-ing from. At the time of writ-ing this, I am almost 29 years old, 5’9”, and roughly 195 pounds. I have an immense sweet tooth and will generally give into temptation when it comes to junk food. Th e worst habit I’ve picked up is an ad-diction to Coca-Cola. Since beginning my un-dergraduate degree, just under 11 years ago, I’ve been drinking roughly two to three cans of

pop per day, sometimes more. Th at, coupled with a generally sedentary life-style of offi ce work and an aversion to exercise during my free time, has led to a sharp decrease in my overall physical fi tness in the latter half of my twenties. It’s time to change all of that. Over the spring and summer I will get ac-tive and train to run the Dinosaur Valley Half Marathon. For the next fi ve months, I will give regular updates on my progress here, in inSide Drumheller, and talk on diff erent aspects of getting in shape for the race. Join me as we go on the run!

Public gets sneak peak

of next year’s Dragons

Johann Kuschke | inSide Drumheller

Th e Dragons are hard at work for their off season training as they begin their fi rst spring camp on Friday, April 12. Th e camp will resume over the weekend, off ering valuable training to the team who placed fourth in the AJHL southern division last season. Unfortunately, Brennan Baxandall, Ryan Aasman, Brad Deagle, Gartner Harrison Hen-drix, Brodie Jamieson, and Bryton Mills have all turned 20-years-old this year making them no longer eligible to play for the Dragons next season. Th e approaching spring camp will give Dragons fans a special sneak peak of some of the new talent to hit the ice next season.

Team forced to wait until next season


Junior lacrosse in Drumheller will have to wait one more year. Th e Boogiemen, the junior level lacrosse team representing Drumheller, will not be playing this summer, according to team organizer, Dave Powell. “Th ere were not enough guys to play. A couple of the guys made Team Alberta for football and a couple junior hockey play-ers were injured,” said Powell. Th e news is disappointing for Powell, who had to work hard to get the team into an offi cial lacrosse league this year. As of early March, the team was gear-ing up for the season. “I’m more than disappointed it

didn’t happen,” said Powell. Now, many of the players will be heading to other communi-ties to play.

“A few of the guys are still go-ing to play this year. A couple

guys playing lacrosse in Okotoks, Olds, and Brooks asked if they could have some guys,” said Pow-ell. Th e Boogiemen were formed last year, but had to wait a year before they were able to join a league. In that time, they played exhibition games. Th is year, they may do the same. “I’m not going to give up on it,” said Powell. “We’re going to try to get some exhibition games here and there.” Lacrosse fans hoping to see the Boogiemen in league action will have to wait another year. Powell is optimistic for next season. “Th ere are a lot of Midgets moving up who will be able to play at the Junior level,” said Powell. “We have a strong Midg-et program this year, so we’ll have a good group come out of that, which will help us out quite a bit.”
