Fort SaskatchewanMinor Hockey hasapproached the Town ofLamont about renting icetime at the recreationcentre, due to arenashortages within the cityof Fort Saskatchewan.There are two arenas thatare shut down due toissues with the buildingor ice surfaces, leavingnot enough ice time forthe hockey club to fit allpractices in.

The Fort MinorHockey will be renting

80 hours of ice a monthand more if available,and will be after the localclubs are finished withthe ice for the day. On theweekends they will becoming in after LamontMinor Hockey is fin-ished, which is usuallyby 3:00. “This way thebuilding will not be sit-ting idle,” states arenaattendant Colin Peddle.As well through theweek, if the hockey andfigure skating will be fin-ished by roughly 9:00pm, then Fort hockeywill be coming in then.

Peddle has already

scheduled in the tourna-ments that are put onthrough the year byhockey, as well as the iceshow with the figureskating club. This willhopefully eliminate anyconfusion to the extra icetime that is needed. TheFort Minor Hockey willbe charged regular ratefor the ice, which is$120.00/hour.

“The arena is expen-sive to operate, andmakes little money. Thisadded ice time will hope-fully help,” says Peddle.

During the months ofApril and June the Townof Bruderheim has com-pleted the municipalcensus, and the resultsshowed a growth of sixpercent since 2006. Thenew number that camein was 1,298, which is asignificant increase sincethe last census. There hasbeen 143 new residentsmove into the town inthe last six years.

"We believe that thebiggest contributor toour growth is the factthat Bruderheim is agreat place to live. Thereare great people that livein town, and it's a won-derful region with a lotof potential," says MayorKarl Hauch. The locationof the town is alsobelieved to be a contribu-tor to the growth, notonly for the employment

opportunities close by,but also for the conven-ience of being close tomajor centres.

As Bruderheim keepsgrowing with popula-tion, the hope is thatmore businesses willthen be attracted to cometo the town. "We believethat the growth of servic-es and population hap-pen together," addsHauch.

With this increase aswell the demand for newhomes is getting stron-ger, which adds somepressure to the town tomaintain and build

municipal infrastructure,but the feeling of Hauchis that the growth is apositive indicator forlong-term sustainabilityfor the town.

With the growth of theHeartland there is moreopportunities that will becoming for the residentswith employment, aswell as draw more peo-ple to possibly relocate."Our Council believesthe long term future ofour region is a very posi-tive one, and TownCouncil and staff areworking hard to ensureour town has all theplans in place to helpprepare Brudereheimwell into the forseeablefuture," says Hauch.

The population ofBruderheim is expectedto continue to growsteadily in the future,especially as the indus-trial growth occurs with-in the County of Lamont.

They say the appledoesn't fall far from thetree.

And such is the case ofClay Laronde, who hit anapple on his first shotfrom 37 yards away towin Saturday's AppleShoot at the Lamont Fishand Game Association's3-D Fun Shoot this past

weekend.It was also ironic that

Clay's dad Murray did aRobin Hood, shootinghis arrow directly intothe arrow of anothershooter, the very sameday!

"It's like a hole in onein golf," said Murray. It'sdefinitely a rare occur-rence, and something hewill never forget.

Gord Blize, President

of the Fort SaskatchewanFish and GameAssociation, says the funevent is great practice forhunting season whichbegins this week forarchers.

There were archers asfar away as Airdrie andLloydminster, whoattended the fun shoot."It's a fun course, andgreat for the kids," saidDoug McDonagh, who

participated with his 10-year-old son Koltin.McDonagh said it isgood practice for him aswell as he will be head-ing up to the Whitecourtarea for hunting in thecoming weeks.

Both Clay and Murrayare already looking for-ward to the indoor sea-son that will get under-way this fall atBruderheim School.

Thanks to a grant theassociation recentlyapplied for, it now has 12bows and arrows at itsdisposal for youth andadults who want to tryout the sport withouthaving to invest inequipment right away.Murray adds that theassociation also plans tohost an indoor shootsometime this winter.

In the long term,

Murray would like to seethe association to get aclubhouse which wouldhouse an indoor shoot-ing range for both indoorarchers and shootersalike.

In the short term, bothhe and Clay are lookingforward to an upcomingtrap shoot on Sept.9thhosted by the FortSaskatchewan Fish &Game Association.

Dear Editor:

The article in theAugust 28, 2012 issue ofthe Lamont Leader con-cerning the blessing ofthe graves at theT o m a s h e w s k y -Gavinchuk Cemeterybrought the Ross CreekCemetery to mind. Ifever there is a cemeteryin need of some sort ofblessing it is that one.

Ross Creek Cemeteryis located on the westside of Highway 834 justsouth of Highway 16. Ifyou blink while passingit you will miss it. I dis-covered it while out geo-caching. To say the leastit is in a very sad state.The grass and weeds

have not been cut foryears. Some headstoneshave toppled over. Thefence and sign is in a badstate.

From what I can tellthere may be about sevengraves at this site. Thereis a large monumentdedicated to Samuel &

Emma Hallberg. Othergraves have the surnameVan Buskirk andClememson. The signabove the gate says

"since 1888".Some searching on the

internet showed picturestaken in 2007 and com-ments about the poor

condition of the site. It's ashame that our pioneersare remembered in thisway. Being located in theCounty of Lamont I'mwondering who hasresponsibility for theupkeep of this cemeteryor to whom does itbelong? What would ittake to get this cemeterycleaned up to a state thatshows some respect forthe pioneers who areburied there? I would bewilling to volunteer aday’s labour to assist ifthat is of any use towhomever is responsiblefor this site.

Sincerely,Nick Plooy

Ross Creek Cemetery Needs A Blessing Too

Ross Creek Cemetery last fall.

Lunches are made, all the school suppliesin the back packs (which on the first day ofschool weigh more than most kids), kidsare up early for the first time in months,and getting ready to either catch the bus orwalk to school. Yes it is the first day ofschool, the day that kids dread, and parentsstart counting down to in August.

You see all the parents going into theschool to meet the children's teachers forthe upcoming school year, and help get thekids organized. While parents are oftenexcited for this day, at the same time it alsomeans let the crazy time begin again.

No more holidays, no more relaxing, nomore enjoying the weather. It is back to theskating rink for hockey or figure skating,dance, music lessons, or whatever afterschool activities children are involved in. Itmeans fast suppers so you can fly out thedoor and go again, then get home…helpwith homework (or get after the kids to dohomework), bath or shower, and in to bed.Bedtimes become earlier, not even becausethe kids are tired, but because the parentsare.

As excited as I am for the kids to be backto school, I also know that it means it istime to be crazy busy as well. Every daypretty well spent at the skating rink, andhopefully get time in there at some point torelax. As well it means that the weather willbe getting colder, so going from -20 degreesoutside to the arena, my toes are alreadygetting ready for being constantly frozen.

But we all do it for our kids, to help themstay active, because they love to do it, orjust because they need something to do.Everything parents put themselves throughin the next 10 months is all for the kids, andwe all have that hope that the next reportcards will always contain those passinggrades.

Celebrating 100 years of care and service at Lamont Health Care CenterJazmine InksterStudent Reporter

Lamont Health CareCenter celebrated 100years of service this pastSunday, and rang in thehospital’s centennialwith an extravagant ban-quet on Saturday nightfor all who wished tojoin in the celebrations.

The night was kickedoff by MC Harold James,and contained an arrayof food, exciting songs,and heartfelt memoriesof the people who hadbeen involved with thehospital since the time itbegan.

At the beginning of theceremonies, the St.Michael Choir sang"Mno Haya Lita" or "GodGrant Us ManyBlessings." The song wasused to accompany themembers making a for-mal entrance, and toopen the stage to thespeaking of others.

The first to say a fewwords regarding thehospital was James, whois the executive directorof the hospital board.James took this time torecognize the specialguests who took the timeto come to the hospital'scentennial, and remind-ing the audience of theimportance of all of thepeople who workedwith the hospital fromthe very beginning to thepresent, explaining thatit was because of all ofthem that the hospital iswhat it is today.

He explained that theirdetermination, and thefact that they neverdoubted their strengthor abilities, was the run-ning force towards mak-ing this hospital asamazing as it has been."You are truly ourheroes" adds James.

After dinner wasserved, James welcomedanother well known faceto the floor, KentHarrold. Harrold tookthe opportunity to helpthe audience understandthe rich past of the hos-pital, and allow them tounderstand more aboutthe founding couple,Albert and Jessie Archer,and their motivations.

As well as the Archers,Harold also took theaudience back to thetime of the nursing stu-dents, and read from therecords of their history.Harrold brought theaudience back both

through achievements,as well as the town andhospital’s greatest trage-dies.

Harrold explainedhow many firsts theyhad had as a town andhospital, and why thesefirsts were imperative towhat the hospital istoday. He told the storyof the first nursing stu-dent graduate, and of thefirst vote allowing some-one of oriental origin totake part in their nursingschool. However, most ofall Harrold told of howthe community wasalways there to help thehospital and be involvedthrough both good times

and bad. Harroldremembered the firstwords said to people inthe community by thosewho helped open thehospital;

"This is your hospital,this is not for rich people,it is for you." Thesewords were also anotherfirst for the hospital as itwas said to the people intheir own native lan-guage, and allowed themto know exactly wherethey stood.

Another famous namein the hospital is the lateMorley Young, for whichthe assisted living quar-ters are named. It isbecause of Young that

the assisted living pro-gram is as rich as it istoday. Young believedthat the institutionaliza-tion of those who did notneed that level of super-vision was harmful, bothto the patient and thestaff members. So, inshort, Young came upwith the Morley YoungManor, a place where theelderly can reside with alevel of independencewhile still having quickaccess to health care pro-fessionals if and whenthey need it.

In 1995, the hospitalwas struck down bytragedy, as a fire destr-oyed many parts of the

hospital, and caused theneed for the rebuildingof the hospital. The eventis remembered as bothan opportunity and agreat tragedy, as ithelped the hospital tomodernize, and com-pletely reconstruct itsprevious look. It was alsoan opportunity that thecommunity took fulladvantage of, andtogether they began theneeded construction onthe hospital that standsthere today.

The night was endedoff by presentationsmade to James andHarrold, by multipleorganizations in the

community, in the wayof gifts, plaques, andcheques. Finally, as theaudience was treated todesserts and fruit, themembers took some timeto cut the centennial cakeand thank everyone fortheir hundred years ofsupport.

Everyone there wascongratulating the teamon 100 years of successand hospitality, and hop-ing for a long future, allhoping for the same asMLA Jacquie Fenskewho added "May we cel-ebrate many anniver-saries in the centuryahead."
