the Strathmore Citizens on Patrol (COP) work long
hours throughout the night to help keep Strathmore
safe by patrolling the streets and reporting anything
suspicious to the Strathmore RCMP.
Only last year, Strathmore COP become an as-
sociation under the Alberta Citizens on Patrol.
Strathmore COP is currently operating with only 10
members and is hoping to grow its member base
with the goal of completing more patrols and help-
ing to catch and report more suspicious activity and
crimes.
“I personally joined because I just don’t like see-
ing people get away with things that they’re not sup-
posed to be doing,” said Crystal Johansen, vice-pres-
ident of COP. “People work hard for the things they
have and I know the RCMP are very busy. So, for
us to be out there and to be extra eyes and ears for
them, I felt that this is the least I can do.”
With a goal for each member to complete at least
one patrol a month, two members of COP pair up
for a night of driving around town to spot any suspi-
cious behaviour. They track their locations and time
spent patrolling on the iPatrol+ app, and record any
incidents. If members run into anything suspicious
they also call it into the RCMP.
There is currently no set schedule for patrols;
however, members are encouraged to patrol when
they can. Night shifts last approximately seven
hours or less depending on how busy the night is.
Members check in with the RCMP every night they
are out, and the COP also has a monthly meeting
with the Strathmore RCMP to discuss any questions,
areas of town that need more patrolling than others
and other important information.

Growing Families Society
– 23 years of service
JANET KANTERS
Times Editor
Growing Families Society is celebrat-
ing 23 years of service in Strathmore
and Wheatland County. The group pre-
sented a summary of their various pro-
grams at Strathmore town council on
Feb. 6.
According to Margo Sevcik with
Growing Families Society, the group’s
mission is to “promote, support, and
advocate for healthy lifestyles within
our communities to enhance the unity
of the family structure so all families
can reach their full potential.”
Growing Families Society is com-
prised of three main programs: Grow-
ing Opportunities, Bridging the Gap
and 5 for Life.
Growing opportunities is an in-home
visitation program to provide support
to at-risk pregnant women.
“We employ a nurse, a support work-
er and a life skills coach. Women un-
der the age of 19 are automatically ac-
cepted into the program; over that age
if they have two of our 13 risk factors
then they are accepted into the pro-
gram,” said Sevcik, who added that the
program serves a total of 350 moms.
“The funds we received from you for
2018 was directed towards our life skills
portion of the growing opportunities
program. We helped 18 clients over a
12-month period based on a one-day a
week program. We build trust, we edu-
cate, support and teach coping strate-
gies for these new moms. Your money
was invested to give Strathmore’s new-
est residents the best start possible.”

Town appoints weed inspectors
JANET KANTERS
Times Editor
The Town of Strathmore has appointed two staff members
to act as weed inspectors.
Donna McCallum, parks lead hand/horticulturalist, and
Jolene Post, equipment operator and horticulturalist, will
take the lead as the town’s weed inspectors.
According to Craig Nichols, Town of Strathmore operations
manager, under the province’s Weed Control Act, municipali-
ties have the authority to appoint people as municipal weed
inspectors.
“One of the things we ran into last year had to do with
noxious weeds,” said Nichols. “Last year, we had two prop-

• I recently wrote about the importance of volunteering, no matter where, or for
what. And you are very much appreciated indeed, especially when things need to be
done. There is one thing I have noticed in the last little while, and it needs to be noted.
When you say you will volunteer, whether for a specific event, or to help, please carry
through with your intent. There is nothing worse than to be a volunteer, counting on
another volunteer to assist, and that person does not show, or knowing that another
volunteer will take over from you, and THAT person is a no-show. If something comes
up, and you can’t make it, please let the people who are volunteering know so they can
find someone to fill your spot. Don’t leave them in the lurch. Just sayin’.
• I recently wrote about the Holocaust of World War II and all of the casualties.
Some people believe it, some don’t. Wars do nothing but cause casualties, on both sides,
and they still do. Here’s a few more statistics. Communism under Stalin, caused 62
million deaths; Socialism under Hitler, caused 21 million deaths; Communism under Mao
tse Tung, caused 49 million deaths and Islam has caused 300+ million deaths. I’m not
saying one is worse than another, which is rather obvious, and you can make up your
own minds. It still blows me away! Why?

hanced investigative response.
A recent Alberta RCMP analysis indi-
cated that 15 per cent of places broken
into represent 32 per cent of all break
and enters. That means one third of
these properties have been broken into
more than once and is likely to be tar-
geted again.
“Project Lock Up is truly an intelli-
gence-led and collaborative approach
to Albertans who have been victimized
by break and enters,” said Supt. Peter
Tewfik, officer in charge of Crime Re-
duction Strategies with Alberta RCMP.
“We find the people who need the most
support and along with our partners,
work with them to ensure they are nev-
er targeted again.”
The new initiative is based on two
similar projects in the U.K.: the Hud-
dersfield Project and MetTrace Project,
which resulted in residential break and
enters dropping by approximately 30
per cent in targeted areas.

Two of the most effective forms of birth control

to know that these two birth control methods do not
prevent sexually-transmitted diseases.
Cancer is such a prevalent medical problem that
people often go to “Dr. Google” for ideas how to treat
and prevent it. One such idea talks about hydrogen
peroxide a mild antiseptic in regular strengths but is

Rosebud Theatre’s Amish Project
to be performed in Vancouver
LAUREEN F. GUENTHER
Times Contributor
The Amish Project, a play produced
by Rosebud Theatre on its BMO Studio
Stage in 2018, will have another perfor-
mance run in Vancouver’s Dark Glass
Theatre, Feb. 20-23.
Jessica Dickey’s fictional exploration
is based on a shooting that occurred in
2006 at the West Nickel Mines School,
an Amish one-room schoolhouse in the
Old Order Amish community of Nickel
Mines in Pennsylvania. Five Amish girls
died and five were injured.
The Amish Project’s fictional charac-
ters include two Amish girls, the gun-
man and his widow.
The Rosebud School of the Arts stu-
dents and graduates who comprised
cast and crew in the Rosebud produc-
tion will reprise their roles at Dark
Glass Theatre. Angela Konrad, who
came to Rosebud to direct The Amish
Project last summer, is also artistic di-
rector of Dark Glass Theatre, where the
play will be remounted.
Cast member Heidi MacDonald con-
siders it a gift to bring the play to a
wider audience.
“It’s one of the most beautifully
written plays I’ve ever encountered,”
MacDonald said. “This is a play that I
want everybody to see. This show is so
universal and transformative, (and) it
means so much to me to get to share it
with more people.”
She looks forward to hearing the re-
sponses of an urban audience.
“The way that people in a rural cul-
ture (around Rosebud) talk about is-
sues that come up in this show may be
talked about differently in an urban set-
ting,” she said. “I’m really curious to see
how an urban audience responds to a
show that was so massively adored by
Lots of plots in Wheatland County
cemeteries
SHARON MCLEAY
Times Contributor
Nothing is as sure as death and taxes,
so Wheatland County council has asked
county staff to review its cemetery ca-
pacity for residents in need.
The county has two cemeteries, one
in Gleichen and one in Rosebud. There
was another recently approved to ser-
vice for a new Hutterite colony.
Based on five-year population growth
speculations and 2017 mortality rates,
the morbid prophesy is 66 people per
year will pass away in the county. With
the aging baby boom, that may triple to
171 deaths per year by 2031.
However, when compared to the
space available in the cemeteries for
burials, it was determined there will
still be room in Wheatland County.
Canadian statistics show 70 per cent
of people favour cremation, over burial.
Alan Parkin, Wheatland County chief
administrative officer, said overall, Ca-
nadian statistics may be influenced by
urban statistics and rural area numbers
might be slightly different.
The review concluded the county
may need to develop more plots in the
Gleichen cemetery long term, and de-
velop more cremation niches or allow
multiple urn burials in traditional lots.
They also suggested the possibility of
marketing plots to urban areas, where
cemetery spaces are dwindling.
There was a suggestion that fees be
reviewed, as Wheatland County charg-
es rates well below eight other random
municipalities polled.

Barn apartment leads to double fees
SHARON MCLEAY
Times Contributor
A resident hoping to build a new residence on their
land got a surprise from the county in the form of
double development fees, as the barn had an unper-
mitted residential suite in the loft.
Wheatland County planners could not find an old
permit but suggested it could fall under current sec-
ondary suite guidelines. They still would have to pay
a $600 penalty on the fees.
The applicant asked that council remit the fee, as
the suite was built in 1998 and inspected at the time
of construction. They indicated that it was clear to
the inspector at that time it was going to be used un-
til they built a new residence. They had been paying
residential taxes on it since that time.
“I agree to pay the $300 development fee; howev-
er (I) feel the penalty is not justified. I was told the
county did not keep accurate records 20 years ago,
and they are now trying to have all the properties in
compliance as they find them,” said Robert Voelk in a
letter to council.
COUNTY PARKS, RECREATION AND COMMUNITY
SERVICE SETBACKS
Lengthy documents sometimes need adjustment
and Wheatland County planners noted side yard and
setback distances had been missed in the Land Use
Bylaw for Parks, Recreation and Community service
district guidelines in Land Use Bylaw 2016-01.
“Since direct control was created, some parcels have
been consolidated and the lands indicated in the dis-
trict have to be amended to reflect the consolidation.
To assist staff and the public, in the dwelling, modu-
lar, recreational vehicle and recreational vehicle stor-
age, we are proposing additional wording to make the
definitions more clear,” stated Kim Sandbeck, Wheat-
land County development officer.
The properties under the designation will have
a change to side yard setbacks of 10 feet. Modular
homes will have a three-to-one ratio for floor length
to width of the home. It excludes recreational vehi-
cles as a dwelling and clarifies leisure vehicle storage.
W/C LOADED UP SON
WINC LIVE AMMO SON
The complaint process was adjusted to accept written
complaints for investigation, but verbal complaints
would only be accepted if the situation involves a
public safety risk, or imminent risk of personal injury,
or property damage.
Council approved the amendment.
CANNABIS BYLAW GETS UPGRADE
County planners submitted amendments to the Land
Use Bylaw 2016-01 on Feb. 5, to define and use the
term cannabis instead of marijuana in documentation
and remove the term medical marijuana production
facilities from the intensive industrial designation.
Now that cannabis has been deemed legal under ex-
isting federal guidelines, medical production will fall
under cannabis production facilities and move from
discretional use in industrial general districts, to per-
mitted use in industrial general. Facilities will still be
confined to the Wheatland West Highway 1 industrial
area and will not be considered under greenhouse
categories.
County staff upgraded setbacks to 100 metres, and
included waste management guidelines, lighting re-
quirements, environmental and site assessments, wet-
land and biophysical assessments, the landscape and
screening plans, which will be required at the devel-
opment permit stage of application. There is a pro-
vision that cannabis cannot be consumed at the site
and equipment placed to remove odours. Water well
licensing may also be required.
“This bylaw is specifically to amend the land use
bylaw. The amendments to the special use section
are in keeping with recent amendments. They ask for
more studies to be completed up front, and they’re
requiring developers to take control of any potential
nuisance effects their development may create. These
amendments will provide more clarity, transparency,
and accountability to developers. As well as strength-
ening the County’s role in development that comes
into the industrial corridors and area service plans,”
stated Megan Williams, intermediate planner with
Wheatland County.
Council approved first reading and the public hear-
ing will be in council chambers April 2.
IPU RESOLVE SON
The bylaw also added and clarified several addi-
tions to discretionary uses under the bylaw.
INTERMUNICIPAL AGREEMENT WITH VULCAN
GETS APPROVAL
The Vulcan County and Wheatland County Intermu-
nicipal Development Plan (IDP) came before Wheat-
land County council approval on Feb. 5. The agree-
ment is mandatory under provincial mandates for
all counties to have intermunicipal agreements with
counties adjacent to their borders.
In the agreement with Vulcan County, about a
1.5-kilometre strip on either side of Wheatland County
borders is affected, which translates to about 17,393
acres.
The plan will address mutual land planning deci-
sions regarding infrastructure, economic, social and
environmental impacts to development in this area.
The agreement states Vulcan County and Wheatland
County share similar goals for agriculture, economic
development, natural resources, environment, trans-
portation, and water and utility development.
However, it notes some negotiation might be need-
ed on areas of resource extraction, recreational devel-
opment and industrial development. Those negotia-
tions are why the province has mandated these plans,
so that problematic areas can be dealt with in a pre-
scribed manner.
Council gave third and final reading for the agree-
ment.

The Agricultural Service Board (ASB) granted this
year’s legacy award to Craig and Kooter Kaiser. The
Youth Stewardship Award was given to the Carseland
School, due to their garden, outdoor classroom and
nature connection program. The board has revised
some of their terms of reference for awards to free
up more opportunities to support youth in agriculture
interests.
“I think this is a pretty good move by us,” said Coun-
cillor Jason Wilson. “It’s going to allow a lot more kids
to go into the scope of agriculture and have a little
more funding for that.”

Kings rolling hot into playoffs
BRADY GROVE
Times Reporter
The Strathmore Wheatland Kings head into the
playoffs on a high note after capturing two victories
to end the season on a three-game winning streak.
The Kings played back-to-back home games and
beat the Cochrane Generals 6-1 on Feb. 8 and the
Lomond Lakers 8-3 on Feb. 9.
“It was a good last two games to finish off the year
and go into the playoffs with a little momentum,”
said Kings assistant coach Chris Williams. “It’s good
we’re finding the back of the net. It almost feels like
we’re starting to heat up at the right time.”
Despite being heavily outshot by the Generals in
the first game, the Kings buried them with goals.
Scoring came from throughout the lineup and Brett
Willan was a wall that turned aside 40 shots for the
win. The Kings were well disciplined and only took
four minutes in penalties during the game.
The offense continued into the next game against
the Lakers. The Kings found themselves up quickly
with a 3-0 lead after the first. The Kings didn’t let up
and kept attacking in the second and scored three
more goals. Despite the constant attack by the Kings,
a couple of giveaways led to partial breakaways that
the Lakers converted.
Two goals by star winger Garret Vander Ploeg in
the third ended all thoughts of a comeback. Kings
forwards Lucas Muenchrath along with Isaac Benoit
and Vander Ploeg combined for 16 points in the win.
“That top line certainly has figured it out,” said
Williams. “It was just their night.”
Willan wasn’t nearly as busy against the Lakers

and only had to make 20 saves to get his team the
win. The Kings maintained their discipline and only
took four penalty minutes again.
The Kings regular season is now complete, and
they finished in fourth place in the south division
with a 18-17-3 record. According to Williams, the
goal was to finish with 20 wins but the team was
happy to get 18 and end up over .500.
ROUND 1
The fourth-place Kings edged out the fifth-place
Medicine Hat Cubs by one point to take home ice in
the first round of the playoffs, a club they have had
some success against in some spirited games. The
season series ended at two games apiece with the
Kings winning back-to-back games on Oct .27 and

Cougars remain top cats at GFS tournament

Crowther Memorial Junior High School’s
(CMJHS) Team Red Cougars beat Hanna’s J.C.
Charyk Hawks 35-19 in the finals at the first-
ever George Freeman School (GFS) girls’ bas-
ketball tournament on Feb. 8-9.
It was a close game in the first half, but the
Cougars never slowed down in the second
half and captured the title.
“We’ve really been working on running our
offence and the girls executed it beautifully
today,” said Cougars head coach Cheryl Da-
vidson. “I thought they did a great job go-
ing to the hoop and playing a good defensive
game.”
From the beginning, both sides brought
their A-games with baskets being traded
back and forth. The Hawks kept pace with
the quick Cougars and matched them nearly
shot for shot with the score 16-14 in favour of
the Cougars after the second quarter.
According to Davidson, this was the first
time they had played such a strong defensive
team and they had to adapt to it.
But the Hawks were unable to maintain
the high speed of the game heading into the
second half which had been so important to
their defensive success, because they only
had seven players and the Cougars exploited
this.
“We hung with them in the first half but in
the second half we just fell apart a bit,” said
Hawks head coach Ron Davies.
The Cougars never took their foot off the
gas pedal, led by the speedy Tessa Galandy
and the powerful Kathryn Penninga. The
Cougars defense was a swarm and never
gave the Hawks a chance on offense, limiting
them to five points in the second half.
“We played really well on defense and it

FALCONS GIRLS PLAY
IN FINAL TOURNAMENT
The GFS host Falcons couldn’t outrun the
Brooks Junior High School Runners as they
lost 46-16 in the second-place game. The Fal-
cons fought hard but couldn’t overcome the
quick speed and transition of the Runners
defense.
“I think our girls came out flat and tired,
and didn’t play nearly as well as last night,”
said Falcons head coach Colleen Neale.
The Falcons started off well, winning their
first game 31-10 against St. Anthony’s School
(Drumheller), which Neale saw as a huge
success for the girls because they put so
many of the concepts they’d been working
on throughout the year into practice. The Fal-
cons lost against the Hawks 20-9 to finish off
the round robin in second place in their pool.
The Falcons are a very inexperienced team
with only one girl having played basketball
on a team at the start of the season. Sieanna
Tomko was the lone player with experience
on the team and she had a good game and
generated offensive chances. Neale described
her as one of the team’s leaders with good
hands and basketball IQ.
“I think for this group of girls who had

has been immense and we’re super proud of
