Lakeland College Wainwright Administrative Professional Program cancelledSubmitted article Carley Herbert and Claudinei Saunders-Cruz
Wainwright Economic Develop-ment and Wainwright Adult
Learning partnered with Lakeland College earlier this year to bring their Administrative Professional program to Wainwright. This program is a full-time day-time certificate program in Lloydminster but was being modified
to be offered in the evenings and week-ends in Wainwright in order to ac-commodate students with jobs, family commitments etc. The result for Wain-wright students would be an Admin-istrative Professional certificate from Lakeland College.
There were 2 information sessions conducted on March 6th and May 29th in the community. These Informa-tion Session provided details by Lake-land College on the course, admission
r e q u i r e m e n t s , financing etc. Lo-cal employers also attended to talk about the impor-
tance of this program in their hir-ing practices. Extensive advertis-ing in the newspaper, social media and in local area schools was done.
Twelve students were required in or-der to have the program run in Wain-wright. Although 12 students applied, 4 of those students withdrew prior to the August 12th deadline leaving the program short of applicants. Lakeland College made the decision to cancel the program due to low enrollment on Au-gust 13th.
Lakeland has successfully offered 2 Health Care Aide programs and 1 Ac-counting Technician program in Wain-wright since 2016. Wainwright Eco-
nomic Development and Wainwright Adult Learning are asking the commu-nity for their feedback on post-second-ary needs for Wainwright and area. If you have thoughts and ideas on what kind of courses or programs could be of-fered, delivery methods etc. please con-tact Carley Herbert at 780.842.3381 or [email protected] or Claudinei Saunders-Cruz at 780.842.3455 or [email protected].

Kilo Oscar Sierra Hotel Roger Holmes Chapter 6
It is 6 am Tuesday July 23, 2019. I am asleep in my small tent pitched
on the grass in the home built camping area when the engine of the aircraft ten feet away is started. For a moment I don’t know what that sound is, where I am, or what is going on. Then I remember I am at the world’s greatest aviation event in Oshkosh, Wisconsin and the couple from Switzerland that parked beside us yester-day must be leaving. No engine opera-tions are allowed between eight at night and six in the morning. I am disappoint-
ed I did not get to talk to them more. My tent shudders in the prop wash as they taxi away and I try to drift back to sleep.
Finally I give up. I struggle to get dressed in fresh clothes while laying down. I have been wearing the same clothes for the past three days and it feels good to have clean clothes. I am hungry and plan to go to my favorite place, La Sure’s for breakfast.
Due to space in the plane I only packed two pairs of jeans, a pair of shorts and a couple of shirts. I stuff dirty socks, under-wear, jeans and shirts into the black bag my sleeping bag was in and crawl out of my tent.
I look to where I heard the aircraft that woke me up. It is indeed gone, but the tent is still there. Todd and Stephanie must have gone on a flight and expect to come back.
I walk over to the blue port-a-potties and the big yellow portable showers. The portable has twelve self-contained showers each with a door that opens to the steps that reach up to it. Inside it is just large enough to undress and have a quick shower. I brought only a small towel and feel a bit damp coming out.
Around the back of the shower unit are sinks with hot and cold running water and mirrors where people shave and comb or blow dry their hair.
It is a clear fresh morning and the world is waking up. I walk towards the “hole in the wall” with my laundry. I know from past years there is a laun-dromat near the restaurant with great service. I plan to drop off my laundry there before breakfast. They open early during the EAA event week. The cheer-ful woman at the counter weighs my bag and tells me it will be $12.50. I had noticed the sign saying they want pay-ment in advance during this week. She says it helps speed thing up when they
get this busy. I give her my cell number and she says she will text me when it is ready, “before noon”.
I walk across the street to La Sure’s. I see the line up does not yet extend out into the parking lot and groups of people are walking toward it so I speed up a bit. It seems everyone here knows the deal. Several cell phones are plugged into an outside outlet and I add mine to the pack. People in the line come in groups
and the lady directing traffic at the door keeps asking how many in each party. She is watching the seating carefully. This is a small cafe with six small booths, four small tables each seating four and a counter that will seat another six. It is packed and the four waitresses are hus-tling in the chaos. People leaving tell those waiting it is worth the wait. The lady calls out is there is a single? I am at the back of the line and don’t see anyone putting up their hand, so I volunteer and am invited to a table with a dad and two sons who flew in from Texas yesterday.
The dad runs a small oil field service com-pany and we talk fly-ing, hunting (of which I know nothing) and the oil industry, which I can relate to. His younger son gets a gi-ant plate of blueberry pancakes that makes his eyes pop. I have the Eggs Benedict and coffee. My bill comes to $8.25. I put $1.75 in the tip jar by the till. Great food, great conversation and a great atmo-sphere. This and the reasonable price is why people walk the distance and line up. I unplug my cell phone on the way out and walk across the street back to the airport to start the day.
On my trek around the far side of the 27/09 runway past what is called “the north forty” I admire the sea of aircraft and as I pass by one of the large perma-nent shower houses I pick up a copy of the special EAA daily newspaper that appears in hundreds of pick up boxes around the field. The first thing I look at is the quality of the printing. Not bad, but I conclude we do a better job. The pa-per is packed with the events that hap-pened yesterday and what will be hap-pening today.
There is an air show every day from 2-6 pm however Oshkosh is more than an air show.
There are a group of eleven open sided buildings each one with about a hun-dred chairs and hour long live presen-tations going on simultaneously. Today at this time slot I can choose from the following: When to Tear Down Your En-gine; Confessions of An Air Traffic Con-troller; I’m a Pilot, Not a Meteorologist; Buying Your First Aerobatic Airplane: When Free is too Much; Demythifying Stall/Angle Of Attack; Transcontinental Speed Records; Fabric Covering; Spark Plug Design and Maintenance; Decision Making in Crisis. All this before 10 am. New ones run throughout the day and
tomorrow they will all be different.In addition to these presentations,
near by there is a group of twelve hands-on workshops on sheet metal; fabric cov-ering; TIG (tungsten inert gas) welding; composite (carbon fibre); wood work-ing; gas welding; home aircraft building; where you can just wander in and get hands on experience from welcoming volunteers who have expertise they are willing to share. All at not cost.
I have never welded anything. I think it is time to learn. I sit through the theo-ry presentation from Lincoln experts on TIG welding. I realize it is more compli-cated than it looks. The hands on booths are now all taken so I wander off think-ing I will come back and give it a try later. I never do.
I get a text that my laundry is done.By now it is almost noon and I have
just scratched the surface of the things I want to see and do.
I cut through the air conditioned Fed-eral building and walk past the long lineups at the fast food offerings down to the central Boeing Plaza where a lot of the active military planes are on dis-play. A monster C5 Galaxy is centre stage today and people are lined up to walk through it. Versions of this plane cost between $100 million and $262 million each.
It is hot and I am looking for a place out of the sun. I sit in on a fatal flight crash case study presented by the flight saftey officer of AOPA the American Owner and Pilots Association. It makes me appalled and angry.

Family Recipes Served with l ve
By Phyllis [email protected]
I wonder where the name came from. I suspect it is related to the jumble of ingre-dients, but am not sure. What I am sure about is that my mother made shipwreck frequently. And I suspect that is because she had a big family to feed, lots of other work to take care of and this casserole is pretty quick to put together.
I thought that this was just my mother’s recipe, but I was told once that this recipe was what women of a previous genera-tion sometimes chose to make on the days they did their laundry, most likely a Mon-day. This gave them uninterrupted time to tackle the clothes that piled up over the week. It was different then than now. Today it is not so obvious when we do our laundry. But for the record, I got it done on Monday, in the good old-fashioned way. And it just
shipwreck the same day.
My original recipe called for sliced onions, but one picky eater of a granddaughter
strips of onion at the bottom. Another time for a picky eater of a grandson I chose to dice
disguise them. And he was enthusiastic.
SHIPWRECKIngredients:1-2 diced onions
1-pound hamburger uncooked½ cup uncooked white rice1 cup chopped celery1 can of tomato soup mixed with 1 can boiling waterSalt and pepper
Layer the above ingredients in a casserole dish in order starting with the onions and ending with the can of soup mixed with boiling water.Cover and bake at 350 degrees for two hours.

Good questionsBe carefulWhat you ask for
Voter responsibility
The campaign season is well underway for the 2019 Canadian Federal election, and that means it is
once again time for smear campaigns. For the next few months, our television screens and
social media feeds will be inundated with smear ads as Canada’s national political parties ramp up their attacks on one another.
tive campaign tactics fool you. Smear campaigns have been used by politicians for
over a century to shed a negative light on their oppo-nents by highlighting their flaws and degrading their
Realistically, smear campaigns work. Society tends to focus on the negative rather than the positive in most situations. That is why mainstream media out-lets thrive on natural disasters, scandals and other negative news, and the feel-good stories tend to fall through the cracks. People want to hear the negatives.
does is show the voters how much worse one candi-date is than the next. When it comes to casting your vote, don’t you want to vote for the better candidate
This is where voter responsibility comes into play. President Franklin D. Roosevelt once said, “Democ-
racy cannot succeed unless those who express their choice are prepared to choose wisely. The real safe-guard of democracy, therefore, is education.”
It is important that voters look beyond the smear ads and the headlines and took a good, hard look at the platforms of these politicians and their political parties. Regardless of which direction a person casts their vote, it is imperative that each voter knows why they are voting that way.
So as we get closer and closer to election day, make sure to do your homework and inform yourself before falling into the trap of smear campaigns by voting for the lesser of the evils or casting a vote simply because of the party colours.
You ask for a blue ribbon panel. You get what they want to hear.
You ask for less red tape. You get duct tape holding things
together.You ask for no tax increase. You get what you pay for.You ask for higher oil prices. You forget who took the cash.You ask for lower wages. You get child poverty.You ask for an instant pipeline. You think that will solve your
problems.You ask for higher tuition. You get less education.You ask for lower cost medical care. You will get hospitals closed.You ask for no sales tax. You will not get one.
You will get intolerance.You ask for no carbon tax. You will get warmer.You ask for a war room. You will get war.
In a world where answers are easy to find, prac-tice coming up with good questions.The particularities of the questions you ask help
frame the answer. For example, there’s a world
The world of the future isn’t going to be about knowing or remembering things. You can look things up, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t know things.
Inventions emerge from putting concepts and ideas together, and first those facts about the uni-verse need to be in your head in order for them to be available as the raw materials for ideas.
It’s easy to ask questions from your own per-
else’s. The thing they’re doing that’s patently ridic-ulous probably makes sense to them.
You won’t be able to understand what they’re doing without understanding their perspective. “How” questions work better than “why” ques-tions here. How is about curiosity, whereas why
motivations.You can get answers to any question about facts
in less than a minute. Data isn’t enough. Unless you convert it into information and insight, you won’t know what the data points mean.
Look deeper into the connections between facts and events. Look deeper into the incentives that the system you’re interested in creates.
Having good ideas comes from having lots of ideas. Having good questions comes from having lots of questions. The more questions you ask, the more you’ll understand about the world, and the more you’ll understand about what sorts of ques-tions give you useful answers.

Appreciation from Encore Society
Dear Sir or Madame,
I would like to inform your readers about two very special medals that are available for our vet-erans. These are the National Order of the Legion of Honour from France and the Ambassador for Peace Medal from the Republic of Korea.
Our veterans of the Second World War and the Korean War have both fought hard and made tre-mendous sacrifices, and they have both won the greatest level of respect and thanks we can give them. The Government of France is awarding their highest medal to all living Cana-dian veterans who directly helped to liberate their country between June 6 and August 30, 1944.
The Republic of Korea is present-ing its Ambassador for Peace Medal to all Canadian Veterans who par-ticipated in the Korean War and its peace keeping operations between 1950 and 1955. Living veterans or the families of veterans who have passed away may be eligible to receive this special medal from Korea.
If you are a veteran or know someone that is, and who might be eligible for one of these impor-
tant medals, please contact me. I am an unofficial volunteer who is willing to help you with your application. There is no fee involved.
For more information please contact Mr. Guy Black C/O 515 - 95 Moody Street, Port Moody, BC V3H0H2 or email [email protected] and include the subject “Veterans Medals.”
Thank you, Guy BlackRecipient, Minister of Veterans Affairs Commen-
dation and the Sovereign’s Medal for Volunteers

Gears 5Rod OracheskiGame Guru
Gears 5 – for this outing the series eschews the ‘of War’ moniker it’s
used since the original launched in 2006 – is a redemption story, though perhaps not exactly the story you expect going into it, and is an absolute blast from start to finish.
Players control a couple of charac-ters through the story, starting with JD Fenix, son of series staple Mar-cus Fenix, before moving on to Kait Diaz, an Outsider whose heritage is called into question and explored in the game’s early acts. The writing here is the best the series has seen thus far, moving away from the “dude-bro” action movie dialog and injecting some real character-building back-and-forth into the scenes.
It’s one area the series was lacking, as despite that ‘could be a Schwar-
zenegger movie from the 80’s’ vibe, Gears has always had a strong base story underlying it all. Each game has layered in some complexity to the narrative, and Gears 5 takes it to another level entirely as it explores the origins of the Locust and the vari-ous offshoots of the species.
Gamers – playing solo, or with up to two friends – will explore those origins across a wide array of environ-ments, including lush jungles, frozen expanses of ice and snow, and the blowing red sands of a desert. Gears 5 is somehow the best looking the series has ever been while also sporting eas-ily the largest maps, and they’re loca-tions that are open to exploration like they’ve never been before.
Don’t worry, series purists, the bulk of the game is still the tense arena-style ‘hide behind cover and pop heads’ gameplay you’re familiar with, but between those sections is an open – albeit mostly empty – world
to traverse. Driving the all-new Skiff vehicle, which can carry multiple people as well as store extra weapons,
in these open world areas, players can choose to go straight to the next story objectives or carry out secondary mis-sions that pop up along the way.
While you’re free to ignore these side missions it’s not a bad idea to knock them out when you get the chance as they reward you with major upgrades for JACK, your robotic companion. You may also find some unique weapons while exploring out of the way places…
From the gameplay, which sees some minor tweaks/additions and feels faster than ever thanks to the 60 fps target, to the suitably booming audio - The Coalition nailed every-thing about Gears 5 to perfection. In the interest of not spoiling anything, I’ll just say this about the campaign – it felt epic in a way the series hasn’t felt in years, and it absolutely leaves you wanting more.
Fortunately, when you’re done the campaign there is more – Ver-sus, Escape, and Horde modes* round out the offerings, plus a Boot Camp for series newbies or those who need a refresher before jumping into an Insane difficulty playthrough. If you’re new, or a long-lapsed player, be sure to check out the ‘Previously on Gears’ and ‘State of the Universe’ video summaries found in the Extras menu, as they do a stellar job of catch-ing you up on what’s happened thus far.
There’s also My Tour, a progres-sion system that offers 43 unlockable rewards based on completing objec-tives like killing 120 drones, getting 40 shotguns kills, or 30 eliminations with a specific character. The avail-able rewards include emotes, banners, and character and weapon skins, as well as Iron – the currency used in the in-game store. With 20 characters to choose from between CoG and Locust factions, including four bonus char-acters that come from the Halo and Terminator universes, there’s a whole lot of extra content to collect.
Gears 5 releases September 5th for early access availability via Game Pass Ultimate or pre-ordering the Ultimate Edition, and September 10th for the regular edition. Reviewed using Xbox One X and PC, via code provided by the publisher.
5/5 – Gears 5 is the best looking the series has ever been, and that’s maybe the least of the improvements here. A stellar package for the Gears hard-core and casual fans alike, and a great place to jump into the series thanks to the onboarding summaries.
Xbox One X
screenshotGears 5 offers wide open vistas to explore, but rest assured faithful fans, the bulk of the game is set in the classic closed off areas where you pop out from cover to pop heads.

Lost Quilt Is Returned to IrmaSubmitted articleIrma Ag. Society
A beautiful, hand-stitched king-size quilt that was taken from the
Irma Fair exhibits in the late hours of August 2 or early hours of August 3 has been returned anonymously to the owners through Canada Post. The Irma Agricultural Society which hosts the fair each summer in conjunction with Irma Days noticed the quilt was missing after lunch time on August 3. The Wainwright RCMP detachment was notified and 2 Facebook posts were made and shared hundreds of times across North America.
This quilt was handmade by Mrs. Aletha Tomlinson for her grandson Shane and his wife Jenn for their wed-ding this past February. They agreed that Mrs. Tomlinson should enter the prize-winning quilt in the Irma Fair.
On Monday, August 19 Jenn was at the Irma Post Office and received no-tification that there was a parcel ad-
dressed to Shane at General Delivery, Irma. The box had been mailed at Red Deer and inside was a brief apology note; apparently the individual had been cold. It is believed that the own-ers’ names were mentioned in com-ments on the Facebook posts so the individual(s) knew who to return it to.
It is good to know that the “borrow-er” chose to do the right thing and re-turn it. The Irma Agricultural Society appreciates all the concern from ev-eryone. Thankfully, the mystery has a happy ending and the sentimental wedding present has been returned to the rightful owners.

Commandos fall to Voyageurs in season opener on the roadHigh school team gets an early Week 2 bye to prepare for a tough Week 3 matchup in LloydminsterZak [email protected]
The Wainwright Commandos high school football team hit the road
on Friday, August 30, for their first game of the 2019 fall season, taking on the Bonnyville Voyageurs at Walsh Field in Bonnyville.
The Commandos had a tough task ahead of them, traveling with only 17 players to take on one of the tougher teams in the Wheatland Football League.
Although the short bench made for a daunting matchup, the Commandos played their hearts out and managed
to find the end zone a couple times. But the Voyageurs’ depth took over, as they handed the Commandos a 36-14 loss to begin the season.
The Commandos started the game on the right foot, with defensive back Jace Sanders intercepting a pass on the first drive of the game to put the Com-mandos in good field position for their
first offensive possession of the game. But Wainwright gave the ball right
back on a fumble a couple plays later leading to Bonnyville’s first score on the night.
The Commandos struggled to move the ball throughout the remainder of the first half, as the Voyageurs’ defence forced plenty of pressure in the back-field with a number of blitzes from all over the field. But Wainwright’s de-fence also did their part, picking up a handful of sacks and tackles for a loss and forcing a turnover on downs deep in their own territory.
The team’s first score of the sea-son came from the defensive side of the ball, as Blake Dean scooped up a fumble and took it to the house for a touchdown.
The Commandos’ second and final score of the game didn’t come until later in the second half when quarter-back Nolan Tower used his legs to find the endzone for his first touchdown of the season.
All in all, the Commandos put forth a valiant effort given the size of their roster. The talent and experience of many of the Commandos players, both rookies and veterans, showed in
the strong defensive effort they dis-played all evening long.
The Commandos will have plenty of time to review their performance and prepare for their next opponent, as the team is scheduled for a bye week in Week 2 of the season. Their next game is slated for Friday, September 13, in Lloydminster against the Lloydmin-ster Comp Barons. The Commandos will have to wait until Friday, Sep-tember 20, for their first home game of the season when they host the West-lock Thunderbirds.
The Commandos are still looking for more players to fill out their roster for the 2019 season. Players of all sizes and athletic abilities are welcome to join the team.
The Commandos practice at the Wainwright High School football field on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thurs-day evenings from 6:00 = 8:30 p.m.
Any players interested in joining the team can stop by practice or visit www.wainwrightminorfootball.com for more information on how to regis-ter and become a Commandos football player.

Confident, Capable & Resilient SeriesVolume 1 from the Wainwright Military Family Resource Centre Submitted articleKelly Oczkowski, Wainwright Military Family Resource Centre
The Wainwright Military Family Resource Centre makes every effort
to strengthen family life and promote conditions that foster the well-being of the entire military community. This se-ries aims to share the vision and goals of our Centre with the community.
The WMFRC feels very strongly about the benefits of Military Spouses and dependants in the workplace, and strives to help spouses and dependants with their employment goals. Military Spouses and dependants make great employees and have a lot to contrib-ute to our community. Their resilience, adaptability and motivation are just some of the traits that military spouses
contribute to the work place. “It’s unfortunate that employers
are sometimes hesitant toward hiring a military spouse because they will eventually get posted and leave. But when looking at the statistics, turn-over rates on average are very high within the first year of a new hire.” says Joelle, the Employment Coordinator at the WMFRC.
“Military Spouses often know they will be located in Wainwright for a
number of years, they are open with employers about this and give ad-vanced notice to their departure, leaving time for them to train the in-coming employee. It’s hard to overlook
the benefits of hiring a Military spouse when you stop worrying about how long it will be until they leave. They are here now; confident, capable and resil-ient.” she adds.
The WMFRC is here to help guide military family members through the process of finding employment in Wainwright. If you’re looking to de-velop your resume, expand your cover letter or you need help obtaining your professional equivalencies in Alberta,
Joelle can help you navigate through those obstacles. For example, if you are a teacher outside of Alberta you qualify as a Child Development Supervisor, in which case you are certified to be the Director of a Childcare Centre and receive the Alberta Childcare wage top-up. This process of obtaining your professional equivalency can be con-fusing, however our Employment Ser-vices are here to help.
For more information swing by our office Monday-Friday 8:00am-4:30pm (open during lunch hour), call 780-842-1363 Ext. 1253 or email [email protected]
Check next week for Volume 2 in our Confident, Capable & Resilient series, and learn more about our vision and goals at the Wainwright Military Fam-ily Resource Centre.
