Celebrating pony driversCelebrating pony driversCelebrating pony driversBecause his stories are so fantastic, some people might think he was taking you for a ride, but they are all true. Bob Moffatt drove ponies in the Hy-Grade Mine as a young man, just as his father (in picture Bob is holding), his uncles and grandfather before him. This Sunday, as part of the centen-nial celebration of coal mining in the valley, the Atlas Coal Mine is hosting Pony Day. Those in at-tendance will get a chance to ride in a pony car, meet a pony driver and hear some of their tales. See story on page 5.

Cyclist Tim Leyshan is getting a fi rsthand view of the vast Canadian coun-tryside, and along the way is raising funds for a good cause. His tour, called Cycle for Life, stopped in Drumheller last week. He is on a cross Canada tour to raise funds for the Canadian Cancer Society and a charity called Smiles for Sam. Leyshan was inspired by his mother and uncle’s long battle with illness, but in early 2011, 11-year-old Sa-mantha Mantyka became his beacon. At the time, the child from Delta was in her second battle with cancer in her short life. In July of this year, she passed away. A small group of family friends started Smiles for Sam. Th e charity’s mission is to “strengthen family by pro-viding a range of support to children who are fi ghting the battle against cancer. Smiles for Sam will provide hope, smiles and memories to children and their fami-lies.” Leyshan has decided to split the funds the raised between the two charities, with 75 per cent going to Smiles for Sam and 25 per cent to the Canadian Can-cer Society. “My reason is if we were in the same position, with our child in that boat, we would hope there would be someone doing this for us,” said Leyshan. Leyshan isn’t alone on the road. His partner Becky Ellis and brother Josh are along for the ride with a

camper support vehicle. So far, there have been a few hiccups along the way but the team is ahead of sched-ule.

Th e team was able to generate support from the business community for their journey. One of their main sponsors supporting the journey is Eco-Fuel Sav-er. Th e company has sup-plied the team with its fuel additive, which has made a signifi cant increase in

their mileage for their sup-port vehicle. Th ey have also pledged to donate $1 from every 450 mL bottle of the product sold during the 75 days they have scheduled for the trip. Th e product is available at Canadian Tire. Th is is an easy way to do-nate to the Cycle for Life 2010. Th e team headed out from Drumheller, east onto Youngstown and Kinder-sley, Saskatchewan. As of Th ursday, they were on the last leg to Winnipeg after 20 days on the road. Th ey hope to arrive in St. John’s, Newfoundland by October 23. Along the way they are planning to ad-dress classrooms and stu-dents, spreading the mes-sage of their journey. Th ose interested in fol-

lowing Leyshan’s journey can go to www.cyclefor-life11.com. Th ey are blog-ging as they go and will be adding video as they prog-ress. Donations can also be made online.

(l-r) Tim Leyshan, supported by Becky Ellis and brother Josh are on a cross-country journey to raise funds for the Cancer Society, and a charity called

Smiles for Sam, which provides support to children battling cancer. They were through the valley last week enroute to St. John’s, Newfoundland.

I came to Drumheller in the Spring of 2006 to manage the newly created Sandstone Lanes. An indoor BBQ, computer scoring system, and licensed lounge were part of the package available.

I fell in love with the town, the people I met and the beautiful val-ley, and in 2007 I bought the busi-ness. We have continued to pro-vide a family environment, giving the community another place to play.

We off er league bowling for adults, seniors, Special Olympics, and a youth league for children aged 3-19 years of age, which is coached by our NCCP qualifi ed coaches. We also off er to the local schools a "Learn to Bowl" program for grades 4-6.

We have a fl exible birthday package, with glow-in-the-dark bowling as an added option. Our adult "Bowling and BBQ" package continues to be popular. We are al-ready booking for the 2011 Christ-mas season.

We have improved our food menu this year, and are creating a new, soon to be completed, "Ar-cade" area, which will bring some added pizzazz.

Look us up at: www.sandstonel-anes.ca Check out our many spe-cials or book a lane online.

Over the last couple of years we have experienced our share of the recession challenges. I am pleased to say we have weathered the storm. We welcome a great new season! Come on in and check us out.

Th ree local businesses pitched in to help the Pio-neer Trail Centre lower their utility bill. Th e Pioneer Trail Centre saw a marked increase in their water and wastewater bill under the new frame-work introduced this year, which charges for the diff er-ent sizes of water meters. Before the Pioneer Trail Centre inhabited the prop-erty, it was Jimmie’s Groce-teria, which required higher volumes of water. Th e build-ing has a Class Two sized water meter, which brings with it an extra $75 charge for water and $35 for waste-water. Pioneer Trail Centre ap-proached Th e Town of Drumheller to ask the town to pay to reduce the size of their water meter. Going from a 1.5-inch meter, to a standard residential sized, under one-inch meter would save the centre about $89 per month. Council denied the request. Earlier this year, Len Morse faced a similar situation. He owns a downtown property, and saw a marked increase on his bill because of his me-ter size. He understood the situation faced by the cen-tre and off ered to help. John Shoff of Reality Bytes and Century 21 also pitched in.

Th ey each donated $100 to help purchase a smaller wa-ter meter. Th is will help the Pioneer

Trail Centre, which has pro-vided services and recre-ation for seniors since the late 1970s.

While his career in the mining industry lasted about eight years, Bob Mof-fatt has collected stories to last him a lifetime. Most of these stories re-volved around the likes of John, Turk and Spider. Th ese weren’t fellow min-ers, they were the ponies that he drove underground. On Sunday, September 18, the celebration of the centennial of coal mining continues with Pony Day at the Atlas Coal Mine. If you come, Moff att just might share a story or two. Moff att began work-ing at the mines at 16. He worked on the surface “picking bones.” Driving ponies was in his blood, as both his grandfathers, his dad and uncles all worked the tiny but tough teams. He began driving on the surface, hauling timbers, feed and rocks. After a couple chilly winters, he fi gured it was time to go underground. “It was kind of exciting,” chuckles Moff att. He worked in the Hy-Grade Mine, about where WHIFS is now located. His job was to take emp-ty cars into the mine on tracks for the miners to fi ll, then deliver them to the mine entrance to be processed and shipped. Th ese were the days of contract miners, and the more they fi lled, the more they made. For them to earn, they needed empty cars to fi ll. Making the miners happy often had its kickbacks and Moff att

recalls miners buying him drinks years after he quit driving ponies. Not only did he forge re-lationships with the miners, but his teams as well. Each pony had its own charac-ter and quirks. Turk knew just how hard he had to work. He heard more than eight cars hook up when he pulled the slack up, he would dog it all the way. Moff att fi gured out a way to get him to pull 14 cars…but he’ll have to tell you about that at Pony Day. It was dangerous work too. Moff att worked the po-

nies from the time he was 18 until he was 21, when he had an accident that nearly cost him his leg. He then went to work as a payroll clerk in the Murray Mine. Pony Day runs on Sun-day, September 18 from 1-4 p.m. at the Atlas Coal Mine. Admission to the site includes a pony cart ride. Moff att will be there, spin-ning his legendary tales. More information on Pony Day and all the cen-tennial happenings can be found at www.drumheller-mining100.com.

Next week, scientists the world over will descend upon Drumheller for the

Royal Tyrrell Museum’s bi-annual symposium being held September 21 to the 24. Previous meetings have

focused on the fossil riches of Dinosaur Provincial Park, ceratopsians (horned dino-saurs), and fossil turtles. Th e subject this year is the had-rosaurs, which are herbivo-rous dinosaurs that lived during the late Cretaceous and are characterized by their duck-like bills. “It’s paradoxical that had-rosaurs are among the most abundant of the dinosaurs here in the Drumheller Val-ley, Western Canada, and right through the United States and Northern Mex-ico,” explained Dr. David Eberth of the Royal Tyrrell Museum, “and when com-pared to other groups like ceratopsians and meat eat-ing dinosaurs, it ironically ranks as having the least amount of research.” Despite the comparative-ly low number of research projects done with hadro-

saurs, renewed interest in the group is generating new ideas. “We wanted to corral some of those ideas and present them here,” said Dr. Eberth. “I’m personally looking forward to effi cient-ly spending two days learn-ing the latest research about hadrosaurs.” Th e symposium pays special recognition to the achievements of hadro-saur specialist Dr. David Weishampel of Johns Hop-kins University. A dinner will be held on Septem-ber 22 in his honour. Dr. Weishampel originated the idea that the crest on the head of some hadrosaurs, such as Parasaurolophus, may have been used to gen-erate sound. So far, nearly 60 scientifi c presentations are lined up for the symposium, includ-ing research from Argenti-na, Belgium, China, Mexico, and Mongolia. Not only will the sympo-sium have presentations from well known palae-ontogists, students will be presenting their research as well. Dr. Eberth highlights

the importance of small symposia, “It’s a great op-portunity for the students to mingle with well established scientists.”

Dr. Eberth stresses that the symposium is not restricted to the scientifi c commu-nity and anyone is welcome to attend. “We like to see a blending of dinosaur enthu-siasts from the public and give them the opportunity to mingle with the scientists and ask any question they want.” Registration for the sym-posium is still open, and those interested can fi nd more information and reg-ister on the Royal Tyrrell Museum’s web site, www.tyrrellmuseum.com.

Civic pride shines through the responses from this year’s Great Drumheller Dinosaur Challenge in Th e Weekender. Th e Weekender has been run-ning the popular contest for years. Not only does the contest give locals and visitors a chance to explore Drumheller and win a prize, it also allows them to off er some feedback on all the valley has to off er. Ever year Th e Week-ender reads these comments to learn about people’s experiences in Drumheller. From one respondent, “Ber-nie and the Boys and the Noodle House rock my socks!” Th is year the contest received entries from B.C., east to On-tario. While the largest numbers were from in province, this year Saskatchewan came in a close second. As always, many of the youth-ful comments were all about di-nosaurs, descriptors like “big,” “beautiful” or “awesome” were very common. Th e Royal Tyrrell Museum was often a highlight for many on their journey. So were the splash park, the World’s Largest Dinosaur and the dino-saur statues. A family from Co-chrane, Alberta commented that watching the dinosaurs receive a fresh coat of paint was a high-light. It appears the centennial of coal mining has raised the sta-tus of the mining history of the valley. One Winnipeg visitor ex-pressed their appreciation of this aspect. For another visitor from Saskatchewan, Reptile World made an impression, stating “J’aime les serpents.” Another interesting highlight for one visitor was their ability to

fi nd several geo-caches. Th e service industry received kind comments, with a number expressing the friendly polite service they received at local es-tablishments. One entry from Kelowna wrote, “Drumheller wins for its uniqueness and friendliness.” Th e bulk of this year’s entries were local, and were overly posi-tive. Residents were bursting

with civic pride. Many of the same comments from visitors were refl ected in the local comments, including the fondness for dinosaurs, excel-lent service and of course “Tim-my’s”. One commenter said they felt safe in the community and it is lots of fun in the summer. Another local response was succinct: “Lovin' it!”

The Great Drumheller Dinosaur Challenge received scores of entries this year and the overwhelming experience of residents and visitors to the valley was “Awesome.”

Well, have we all gotten the vegetables out of the garden and made the dill pickles?

I have really enjoyed my garden this year as I haven’t been in the position to grow one for a few years. It was like Christmas to watch things come up and grow into something delicious to eat.

I have had a few folks say they would really like to be able to do some canning, they just don’t know how to get it done. I don’t know if it’s by coincidence or not but, I was reading through the Drumheller Further Education pamphlet that came out this month and there is actually a class in there in regards to doing jams. Possibly if enough folks wanted they would also get a class up for canning. So if you really want to get some answers and have a hands on deal, take a look, it may be something that you could enjoy.

Of course the ultimate thing is to be able to do both, the growing of the cucumbers and the canning of the pickles. If you have a really sunny spot, and it doesn’t have to be a huge one you could give it a try. Even

the community garden plots on Newcastle Drive could get you hooked on gardening. I don’t know anymore about them than the fact they are there. But it again could be worth looking into if you are short on space in your own yard.

I think I mentioned before that the tomatoes have taken a long time to ripen and come along this year – a bit too cool perhaps. I know I planted mine in a little shade and likely could have put them in a better spot with more sun (next year). My corn is also taking a long time to ripen but I think I got my garden in a little late so I am hoping for no frost for a few more weeks.

It’s also time to be transplanting any of those perennials that need to be split up and shared or relocated in your yard. Fall is a good time to take on a project to enjoy next spring. Or just take note to what did well and what didn’t and try to fi gure out what you could have done a bit diff erently. Sometimes a plant needs two or three years to get established and other times it just doesn’t like it where you have put it.

Have a good couple of weeks and enjoy the harvest.

ARIES - Mar 21/Apr 20Aries, refl ect on happy times and then try to recreate that feeling when you are experiencing mo-ments of stress this week. This might offer some welcome relief.

TAURUS - Apr 21/May 21Taurus, a confl ict of interest leads you on a wild goose chase to fi nd something that everyone will agree upon. Opinions are strong so don't expect this to be easy.

GEMINI - May 22/Jun 21Gemini, success takes lots of hard work and you need to recognize you can't please everyone. But it is a good goal to work toward for the next few days.

CANCER - Jun 22/Jul 22Rethink your plan of attack, Cancer. While the idea has merit, there are some big gaps between ideas that can lead to too much confusion. Go back to the drawing board.

LEO - Jul 23/Aug 23Leo, step back from a diffi cult situ-ation and you will get a better idea of the bigger picture. Things are not as important as you once believed. Time for fun arrives on Thursday.

VIRGO - Aug 24/Sept 22Virgo, shopping strictly for the best bargain might not be the best ap-proach. The deal actually could be too good to be true. Factor in all the information.

LIBRA - Sept 23/Oct 23Sometimes you don't think before you speak, Libra. Avoid blurting out the fi rst thing that comes to mind. Friends and family may forgive you, but coworkers might not.

SCORPIO - Oct 24/Nov 22Big plans are in the works that will require your supreme organization-al skills, Scorpio. Others actually look to you to plan all of their events because of your talents.

SAGITTARIUS - Nov 23/Dec 21Sagittarius, baiting someone into an argument seems to be your modus operandi this week. This is certainly no way to win favors with anyone. Think this tactic through.

CAPRICORN - Dec 22/Jan 20Capricorn, save some time for ro-mance and relaxation. A special someone could be feeling neglected lately and will need some quiet time with you.

AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18Accept help graciously, Aquarius. Such help is not always easily of-fered. There will be a few hectic mo-ments this week, but otherwise the next few days will be calm.

PISCES - Feb 19/Mar 20Pisces, a remarkable insight comes to you and you cannot contain your elation over it. Spread the word ... fast!

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

ANDERSONFloyd

December 28, 1918- September 12, 2011

Floyd Anderson, beloved husband of Lillian Anderson, passed away peacefully in the presence of his family Monday, September 12, 2011 at the age of 92 years. Left to celebrate his life with Lil are his three sons Kenneth (Bonita), Joseph (Debra), Frank (Theresa) and his cherished grandchildren, Kelly, Cameron, Julie, Curtis, Caitlin, Michelle; great-grandchildren Ryder and Kohen. Floyd is also survived by his brother Lennart (Phyllis) and was predeceased by his daughter Rosanne and sister Ruth. Floyd was born in Stettler, Alberta, living and growing up on a farm near Rumsey. In June of 1941 Floyd joined the RCAF serving as a flight engineer in Canso “A” bomber. He received his honorable discharge in 1945. Returning to Rumsey, he purchased his father’s homestead in 1947 and began farming. On November 3, 1951 he married the love of his life Lillian Gogol. Together, they raised their family on the farm while Floyd actively served his community as a board member of the Rumsey Agricultural Society, Rumsey Curling Club, and Rumsey Legion. He served on the Rumsey Recreation Board for ten years, helping to build the Rumsey Agriplex. He coached curling, Little League and hockey while his boys were young. Floyd was also an active member of the Big Valley Elks. Floyd and Lil retired in 2000, moving from the farm to Drumheller where they enjoyed their retirement years together. The family would like to thank Dr. Sykes, Dr. Neffgen, Dr. Olfert, “Doc” Danielle and the exemplary nursing staff at the Drumheller Regional Hospital for their care and compassion during this time. Celebration of Life will be held at 2:00 pm Friday, September 16th, 2011 at the Drumheller Alliance Church 670 7 Avenue E, Drumheller, Alberta with Pastor Clint Oakman officiating. Luncheon to follow. If friends so desire memorial tributes may be made to the Drumheller Area Health Foundation 351-9th Street NW, Drumheller, Alberta, T0J 0Y1 or a charity of one’s choice.

According to GlobeScan, a research consultancy, more than 50 per cent of Canadians consistently identify depletion of natu-ral resources, fresh water shortages, loss of animal and plant species and air pollution as “very serious” issues. Among those most committed to sustainabili-ty are Canadian youth who are demanding socially re-sponsible campuses, work-places and products. Now, Riley Pollom of Drumheller, studying at Memorial University of Newfoundland, is prepar-ing to lend his energy to addressing these serious issues. Pollom is among 165 college and univer-sity students chosen from more than 850 applicants across Canada to partici-pate in IMPACT! Th e Co-operators Youth Program for Sustainability Leader-ship. “Impact is an amaz-ing opportunity for me to share ideas and network with other young people from around Canada with similar interests in helping society shift to a more sus-tainable, or as I like to put it, a more thriveable future. Our generation has a lot of immense challenges and opportunities ahead and it's events such as this that can foster progressive change and leadership." David Su-zuki, award-w i n n i n g s c i e n t i s t , environmen-talist and broadcaster, and co-founder of the Da-vid Suzuki Foundation, will once again be the key-note speaker at the IM-PACT! Youth Conference for Sustainability Leader-ship. Conference partici-pants are assigned systems groups within which they will work. Th ese include areas such as food, trans-portation, and education. Pollom has been assigned to the water systems group where he will be work-ing on water stewardship and brainstorming ideas on how to raise awareness about water use issues. Pollom will join his col-leagues at the University

of Guelph campus from September 15 to 18, 2011 where they will team up with experts to develop real sustainability solu-tions to take back to their campuses, communities, and current and future workplaces. Th e partici-pants, ages 19 to 25, repre-sent 70 Canadian colleges and universities, multiple backgrounds, perspectives and fi elds of study. Th e multi-disciplinary ap-proach is intended to help spark creativity and launch broad networks. “Th e Co-operators launched the program in 2009 simply because Can-ada’s young people have

the most at stake in this debate and no one has more focus and energy than they do,” said Kathy Bard-swick, Presi-dent and

CEO of Th e Co-operators. “We wanted to give them the opportunity to interact and work collaboratively to come up with plans, pro-grams and commitments to create a more sustain-able society.” Prior to the conference, participants must com-plete an online sustainabil-ity course created by Th e Natural Step Canada, fi nd a mentor within their pre-assigned system, and inter-view them to begin explor-ing the sustainability issues within the system. During the conference, partici-pants will apply this knowl-edge and work with na-tional experts on systems,

approaches and solutions. After the conference, par-ticipants will go on to lead community sustainability initiatives, some with the help of grants from Th e Co-operators Foundation - IMPACT! Fund. IMPACT! Th e Co-oper-ators Youth Program for Sustainability Leadership is a partnership with the David Suzuki Foundation, Th e Natural Step Canada, the University of Guelph, the University of Saskatch-ewan Centre for the Study of Co-operatives, Wilfrid Laurier University, Lamb-ton College, Conseil de la coopération de l’Ontario, AIESEC, and the Network for Business Sustainability.

PULLED PORK SUNDAE Yes, that’s right. A pork sundae. It tastes much better than it sounds since the “ice cream” is really mashed

potatoes.This is an easy way to serve a dinner out on the deck or the yard. Guests can stand or walk around with the “meal” in hand.Your farmers might enjoy something diff erent if you take it out to the fi eld for a harvest dinner.Easy cleanup with just a disposable cup to deal with!To make a nice pulled pork, the longer you roast, it the better. I begin with a hot grill (or oven) for about 1/2 hour then turn it down to around 300 and let it slow cook all day. Even down to 250 for the last while is good, depending on how long it’s roasting. I pour a bottle of smokey barbecue sauce over it. Adding wood chips if its on the grill is also a nice touch.When the meat is ready, simply take 2 forks and “pull”. The meat should be just falling apart as you tear away at the roast, mixing in the barbecue sauce. You can add more sauce too.Now, take a clear plastic cup (or a glass is fi ne too) and put a scoop of the meat in it. Drizzle a bit of barbecue sauce, then add a scoop of mashed potatoes, drizzle some gravy, then add another layer of pork, then potato and pour gravy over. Top it off with a cherry tomato and stick a fork in to serve.

Third Party Advertising legislation comes into effect September 15th, 2011

Elections Alberta is prepared to implement new provincial legislation that will require Third Party Advertisers to register and to file financial statements with the Chief Electoral Officer. The legislation will also affect contributors to third party advertisers.

The approved amendments revise Alberta’s Election Act and Election Finances and Contributions Disclosure Act. New rules will ensure that Albertans are aware of who is posting, and who is paying for, political advertising.

For further information please visit our website at www.elections.ab.ca.

Elections Alberta is an independent office of the Legislative Assembly that provides non-partisan administration of the electoral process.

Drumheller’s Riley Pollom has been selected to participate in the Co-operators Youth Program for Sustainability Leadership, called IM-PACT.

Two corrections offi cers from the Drumheller In-stitution had a fi rsthand experience with the fi rst responders who served the City of New York following 9/ 11. Curtis Lautermilch and Patrick Rehill are avid arm wrestlers and competed in this year’s World Police and Fire Games. Th ey were held in New York City this year to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the day the World Trade Centre was obliterated by the largest terrorist attack on the Unit-ed States. Th e games ran from Au-gust 25 to September 5, and had more than 15,000 par-ticipants competing. Th e games carried two themes:

Remembrance of those lost on September 11, 2001 and an opportunity for all New Yorkers to express gratitude for the international sup-port that fl ooded into New York City. To do this, they held a candlelight vigil and a thank you ceremony. Rehill won gold in his cat-egory for both arms, and Lautermilch won bronze for both arms. However, this was by far not the most signifi cant part of the event. Th e two went to ground zero and met people who served on that fateful day. Lautermilch relayed a story of meeting a fi refi ght-er who was at ground zero on the tragic day. “He was by the second tower of the World Trade Centre when it collapsed,

some debris hit him break-ing his hip and severely in-juring his leg, forcing his re-tirement,” said Lautermilch. On that day, 34 members of this fi refi ghter’s battal-ion were killed and only six were recovered. His battal-ion chief led a group of fi re-fi ghters up to the 80th fl oor of one of the towers and were in the structure when it collapsed. “I missed the medal cer-emony talking to this guy and do not regret it for one second,” said Lauter-milch. “When I told him he is one of the most remark-able people I have ever met, he very humbly stated we should ‘honour all the peo-ple who died that day by never forgetting.’ ”
