Offs on Saturday, April 24 standing: Bev Holmes, Pat Hope, Joyce r n r? ^ _ L _ ti i S 1LETTER FROM RUSSIA April 19, 1993 Dear Precious Friends and Family: Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, nor have entered into the heart of man the things which God has prepared for those who love Him. 1 Corinthians 2:9 I never could have imagined all the good things that God had for my life. Being here in Moscow is far more exciting than I ever expected. New experiences can be translated into feelings of adventure, exhilaration, fun - all with an overriding sense of purpose. I feel like I bathe in fountains of joy every day. This does not mean that life is a breeze. It is hard work and it takes a lot of energy just for the necessities of life. I must admit that in the past, in Canada, I have become exasperated over much smaller things than what I experience here every day. I think the difference has to do with the grace of God and perhaps some lessons I've learned on being content in whatever circumstances. It's interesting to experience the results of having a cheerful attitude and I think necessary if one is to survive here (and there too, I suppose). I attend church at Calvary Chapel, and have been asked to be part of the leadership team, and to teach a women's Bible study which came as quite a surprise to me, but it is wonderful. The first Women's Bible study was Saturday March 20 here in my apartment and there were four women in attendance, and at the last one there were four new people. They are so excited about having their very own Bible study. I also participate in street outreach with Calvary Chapel. Speakers are set up on the street corner to preach the Gospel and invite people to come to the church to learn more about Jesus. It is amazing to see how many people are genuinely interested. Every week several people come to the church and get involved as a result. Schools also are very open to giving students opportunity to speak with English speaking people and welcome groups to teach Bible stories, do skits etc. As a result, the school children are invited to attend Sunday schools. When people asked me about line ups, I always associated it with shortages. Not necessarily so! Line-ups are a result of the Russian concept of doing business. For instance, want to buy some fresh produce? Go to the produce store and you will see all kinds of good things - beets, onions, potatoes, carrots,cabbage. Sound easy? This easy task will usually take about 1 hour, maybe only 45 minutes. You get in a line-up for potatoes and onions which is about 10 deep. You make your way through and purchase those two items. Then you get in the next line for beets and carrots. You choose your produce, go to another line to pay for it, then go to another one to collect you parcel. The clerks take their time about everything, sometimes leaving their station to unpack some produce that has just arrived and simply leave the people standing. Also they usually use an abacus to calculate the amount owed. There is the bread shop, the cheesy butter and milk shop, the meat and egg shop. Things that make me sad in Moscow: The streets and Metro stations lined with beggars, the economic hardships the people suffer, the lack of priority given to people comforts and pleasantries of life- the value put on human life is very low, too much vodka, death and injury on the streets. Things I like about being in Moscow: The speed of the Metro, the hustle and bustle of busy life, the cultural opportunities available (I have been to a Christian play in the Kremlin Theatre and to an opera at the Bolshoi) the friendly hospitable nature of the people, the sense of excitement of new things happening around me, the move of God's Spirit in this nation.

Good Luck *fll ll o C? I MW a 5 tics This is the third part of four to our Milo Gymnastics Club report. Although our number of enrollment are fewer in these classes we are proud of the kids for hanging in there and reaching this level. Unfortunately Saturdays run against so many other commitments it seems time is to scar ~ce to fit enough things in. Although we have considered alternate days, it seems there is no better solution so we thank the kids from all the classes who are willing to give up their Saturdays and cartoons to attend. We fully understand those who cannot attend due to other plans. The next levels are merit, bronze, silver and gold. They each have their own variance of both skills and difficulties. The men’s merit level includes areas of tumbling, pommels, rings, vault, parallel bars and horizontal bar. Womens merit develops the vault, uneven bars, beam, and floor exercises. Although many skills are the same, there are different areas of strength. Both groups do cartwheels, forward rolls , round offs, head- stands to bridge, a roll jump and complete turn on the mat, then squats, straddles, and optional vaults, onto pike inv. swing and support strides done on the bars along with inv. swing, pullovers, glide swing, hip circles with varies dismounts. Then the women do beam work which has forward and backward rolls, balance poses, lunge, turns, cartwheel dismounts, squats, jumps and other optional mounts. The Mens pommels included front and back supports, swings and leg circles followed by the rings having cross supports, swings, tucks, pikes, invert hang and dismounts. Again there are 70 areas of testing. The womens bronze merit but have a higher degree of skill the vault class now goes into handspring and headsprings, the uneven bars now become routines or combination swings varying from glide to pike inverted hangs, to longswing up to a pike inverted stride with a 1/2 turn and dismount. The beam also becomes a series of rolls, turns and dismounts such as cat/scissor leap, the side run-on mount, backwards roll to optional finish, forward roll to one foot stand and fancy names like the Arabesque, Chasse series, and sissone and finally the roll over to handspring dismounts. The tumbling becomes more involved as well with features such as the dive rolls, front and back hand spring, dive cartwheels, rollover jumps with 1/2 turns and onto handstands with turns and straddles with back rolls or handstands into bridges and of course more fancy names again like the Tour jete and the Fouette, finishing with forward rolls to splints and forward and backward walkovers. Those enrolled in the Merit class are Lacey Holoboff, Erin Monner, Janet Sukut, Megan Vooys, and the only one enrolled in the Mens Merit was Billy Godkin. In the Bronze class was Leanne Holoboff. These classtimes were 2:30 to 4:30. One more report to come next month.CTP (' I j fmm/uoiJU!

But as I said before multiply your assesment by ,15 and you should come pretty close to your tax, Also if you have a farm home on your property we have to asses a 3 acre site seperately, In this county that varies from an assesed value of between $8000 to $15000 for the land. This year the Court of Revision will last seven days so it takes a lot of our time when we are busy doing other things on the farm, The ratepayers who have irrigation and are letting their sprinklers water the local roads are reminded that they will be held liable if someone has an accident driving through those wet spots, This is a dangerous thing to be doing and I would like to see adjustment to those end guns made before there is trouble, The Milo Grade 9 class had a nice graduation in the Milo Hall, Sandy Henry made some interesting observations about the students in his speach, Congratulations to these young people, *************** P.O.

Lahd, Chairman County of Vulcan No. 2 Agriculture Committee P.O. Box 180 Vulcan, Alberta TOL 2B0 Dear Mr. Lahd: Thank you for your letter of April 23, concerning interest rate policies under the programs administered by Alberta Hail and Crop Insurance Corporation. For your information, the Board of Directors of the Corporation has recently revised their interest rate policy based on a decision of the National GRIP Committee in March of this year. That decision allowed provinces to consider an interest rate as low as the provincial cost of borrowing. In response to that decision and producers’ requests, the board has changed AHCIC’s interest rate to prime plus two percent. The rate will be set on a quarterly basis and applied to unpaid premium accounts, as well as any overpayments from the revenue protection program. With regard to commissions, elevator agents are required to deduct outstanding account monies from farmers at the point of sale under the provincial Liens Act. Farmers themselves are entitled to an even larger discount, three percent for payment received on or before August 31 in each year. We think that the discount offered to farmers, at a higher level than awarded to elevator agents as commissions, is sufficient reward for early payment of accounts. I hope my comments clarify these issues, and thank you for taking the time to add valuable input to the programs we administer. Yours truly, h President & Managing Director Bag 5000,4910 - 52 Street, Camrose, Alberta T4V4E8 -a*(403) 679-1302 Edmonton Direct 421-891!

SckooL Principal's Message June K. Fores tell As another exciting year draws to a close, one of the most recent highlights to report is the Grade Four students' trip to Hector Spring School. The Outdoor School is situated at the Rocky Mountain YMCA Yamnuska site, about 50 km west of Calgary. The program is of a multidisciplinary design. As students pursue a variety of study themes, they blend experience in the fields of science, environmental studies, mathematics, social studies, language arts, physical education, music, drama, and art, as well as group development, and safety and survival procedures. The program uses a native theme to increase the students awareness of the natural world with less cultural bias. The elementary curriculum is addressed through the program as well as many experiences that are hard to measure in academic terms. Students are able to use their skills in real-life situations and to live and work with their peers in a cooperative setting. The camp experiences often translate into real-learning that is difficult to replicate in a classroom setting. An example of this was the concluding game of the camp where 250 students participated in Forts and Furs. Teachers and site staff played roles from the 1880s and students were Native people who were trading with the fur traders to obtain material goods. The game is played as realistically as possible in the woods, with the other characters; the NWMP, missionaries, and fort Bow traders playing important roles in the game. Smallpox is also introduced into the game.The post game wrap- up emphasizes the need for openness, communication and understanding. The four day camp gave students the opportunity to share experiences with students from three other schools. Each day was full of fun and learning from dawn until dusk (and later yet in some of the tipis!). To find out more about the camp and to hear first hand from the students who participated; please join us on Monday, June 28, at 11:00 a.m. for a short video/slide presentation. This will give you a further indication of the educational validity of this kind of experience. w v,** ~w flowers Tea Room Floral Design gifts Jewellery V* K m # DROP IN FOR LUNCH While attending the Lunch Suggestions ‘Homemade soups ‘Sandwiches ‘Special of the Day ‘Delicious Desserts AvtivecL >: X & dp* 24 caraf gold pfafed & Austrian Crystal WffCOW IWVGPTTS m % » These are lovely decorations far your window *' wifh a difference also makes a great gift 320 Centre Street Vulcan, Alberta T012B0 Dorothy Healy 485-2746 3? & V.» V?

She also talked about the new technology we will be getting next year. Colleen Deitz then reported on some proposals that were given to the School Board from the Rural Initiatives School Committee. Please attend the R.l. Meetings held Tuesday nights at the Hall. Some volunteers from our group will be attending the next Partnership Committee meeting to re-define their goals. A report card has been drafted for our specific school. A group of parents will review it. School supplies now have to be purchased by parents for grades 1-9. A list will go home in June.

In fact, 6 weeks from now the school year will be over. Staffing Is now complete and student pre-registration is done and timetabling for next year is well under way. There was a good turn out for Parent Teacher Conferences in April. I think that it Is great that each time there are more students accompanying their parents to the conference. I believe that there are definite benefits for the student attending along with the parent. After all, the student is the most important person in affecting any change that is to take place in the remainder of tne semester. We’ll work towards making that more common In the next school year. Lori Anderson, Teen Health Advisor’s hours at CCHS are 10:30 to 2:30 each Tuesday. Students with health concerns or questions are encouraged to talk to Lori. Final exams are important to the evaluation of student progress. Requests for alternate writing dates are usually denied unless there is a request that is more important than finals. All Sr. High students must write their finals in order to receive a final mark. Students not writing a final have not completed all the requirements for the course and will be automatically issued with a failing grade. Jr. High student may be recommended and therefore exempt from writing the final exam in one or more subjects. Plans are being finalized for Gr. 12 Graduation in June. This past month we have had a couple of incidents involving student and vehicles. In one we were very fortunate that a student was not seriously injured. I would ask that parents reinforce with their kids the responsiblity that goes along with taking a vehicle to school or for that matter, the responsibility that goes along with getting into another person's vehicle. Driving a vehicle to school is a privilege not a right that some students seem to think that it is, Some people have suggested that we should prevent students from driving a vehicle to school. That is a topic that could be debated at length. Parents are the ones that control the keys and probably the fuel tank and who give their student permission not to ride the school bus. As long as students act and drive responsibly, there should not be need for restrictions on students driving. Problems with vehicles Is a sure way to restrictions being placed upon the students. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxMilo Municipal Library7 News_____ NEW LIBRARY HOURS To add some evening hours for patrons who peed them, our hours have changed (effectiye June 8 ) to : Tuesdays 9:00am-l 1:30am Thursdays 10:00am-12:30pm 1:30pm- 4:0(ipm 7:00pm-8:30pm Currently our Thursday hours are 9:30am-12:30pm and 1:30pm-5:00pm.

To boost my spirits, I just had to write a tongue-in-cheek look at the possible advantages of 2 to 3 hours per day on the bus. .by Barb Godkin THE FIVE TOP WAYS TO TURN LONG BUS RIDES INTO ADVANTAGES: #5. Have waterbeds and piped-in Barry Manilow music so they'll sleep. Does add several tons of weight per bus, though. #4. Tariff on yawns in class. #3. Free toothpicks in class to keep eyelids opep. Be|ter yet, sell them out of vending machines for extra revenue. l #2. Don't send them. Offer special one- teacher , three course "Survival in the Wilds" programs in each outlying school: -"All parts of cattails are edible." -"Making life's lumps into porridge." -"Community school charters make lovely soup broth."

Ve have completed four, they are: 1. Compressed School Week This adds 20 minutes to the school day and then the students receive every other Friday off. This could possibly generate a savings of £136,330 <£76,280 is savings on transportation, which the government has just reduced their funding to the School Boards by 10%, and there is a great possibility that this funding will be reduced further). 2. User Pay Busing This proposal is based on Rocky View School Division, which would have every student that rides the bus paying a £50 per year fee (maximum £125 per family) for attending the closest available program. The option is available to attend the program of their choice, however fees would be adjusted accordingly. 3. Assessment of Financial Impact of Native Student Enrollment in County of Vulcan. This substantiates the revenue generated (£77,049.20 surplus) that we would not want to lose. Multi—culturalism is also an added benefit in education. 4. Advantages to Distance Learning The Board has already been pursuing distance learning and high technology and we would like to see this continue, as so many will face two hour plus bus rides in our area. Ve have requested from the Board of Education the dollar savings that would result from option 4, as the dollar figures have never been provided. Some of the members of the Committee have had a personal meeting with the Superintendent of the School Board, and some have had tours of C.C.H.S. and Lomond High Schools. Some members are in contact with other school districts regarding their problems and solutions. Ve have been in contact with all of our own Trustees and they were all invited to view our school. Ve have sent a letter to the editor of all rural Alberta papers and are getting numerous replies, some of which are being looked into further. Ve have members in contact with the other communities in the county and also with the rate payers association. Ve are continuing to work on alternatives to our fiscal problems, and everyone's input is welcome. Our meetings are every Tuesday at 7:30 in the Community Hall. Please attend.Jamie’s A. 6.
