Milo Community School Gym Mondays 10 - 11 am October 3rd to December 12th (No gym on October 10th or November 14th) Brought to you by the Milo and District Recreation Board and Vulcan County Early Childhood Coalition My thoughts. Anyone who attends any of my churches should be in no doubt as to the name of my favourite saint. St Francis of Assisi is the favourite saint of many around the world including the current Pope, who took the name Francis in honour of the holy man from Assisi. When we toured Italy a couple of years ago, it was a mandatory stop for me. A massive basilica has been built as a shrine for St. Francis and his tomb, along with those of his first followers; Brothers Rufino, Angelo, Masseo & Leo. It is a place of pilgrimage for the faithful. The basilica was damaged in an earthquake in 1997, but by the time we visited the damage had been repaired. St Francis was born in 1181 at Assisi to wealthy cloth merchants. He entered the army but returned to Assisi disillusioned. At San Damiano, Jesus spoke to Francis and told him to rebuild the church. Francis immediately began to rebuild the crumbling church building, but he eventually determined that Jesus had not meant a church building, but His whole church. He went about the country barefoot, with no possessions existing on whatever he could beg, but always preaching the love of Christ and the love for all God's creatures. One of St Francis’ most famous writings is the Canticle of the Sun. Franco Zeffirelli produced a movie of the life of St Francis Brother Sun, Sister Moon which I am old enough to have gone to see in its first run. The essence of the writing was taken into the hymn, All Creatures of our God and King, a safely Anglican hymn. To let you know that saints are not immune from suffering, St Francis was afflicted with many ailments during his short life, including the first recorded stigmata, a condition which mimics the wounds of Christ - hands, feet, forehead. He died at the age of 45 in 1226. He was declared a saint of the church in 1228. St Francis is the closest anyone in history has come to living as Christ wished us to live: in harmony with nature, in harmony with all of humankind, not being a slave to possessions, with love for all of God's creation. St Francis created a living Nativity scene at Assisi and today all over the world Christmas creches follow his example 800 years on. He is the patron saint of Italy, of merchants, ropemakers, ecology, florists, traders, poets & upholsterers. There are many prayers and quotes attributed to St Francis including the most famous, "Lord, make me a channel of your peace", but I will leave you with two that are my favourites. If you only have room for a few things, you need to know what those few things are. Remember that when you leave this earth, you can take with you nothing that you have received - only what you have given: a full heart enriched by honest service, love, sacrifice and courage. The Feast Day of St Francis is October 4th, and is celebrated in many churches with the Blessing of the Animals. The Rev.

As the boat circled to pick him up, he noticed a hunter sitting in a duck boat in the reeds. My husband put his hands in the air and joked, “Don’t shoot!’’ The hunter responded, “Don’t quack." My three-year-old daughter stuck out her hand and said, “Look at the fly I killed, Mommy." Since she was eating a juicy pickle at the time, I thrust her contaminated hands under the faucet and washed them with antibacterial soap. After sitting her down to finish her pickle, I asked, with a touch of awe, “How did you kill that fly all by yourself?" Between bites, she «aid, “I hit it with my pickle.” The Dumbest Police Calls in . • A deputy responded to a report of a vehicle stopping at mailbox­es. It was the mail carrier. • A woman said her son was attacked by a cat, and the cat would not allow her to take her son to the hospital. • A resident said someone had entered his home at night and taken five pounds of bacon. Upon further investigation, police discovered his wife had gotten up for a late-night snack. •A man reported that a squirrel was running in circles on Davis Drive, and he wasn’t sure if it was sick or had been hit by a car. An officer responded, and as he drove on the street, he ran over the squirrel. We were tearing down an old three-seater outhouse when my neighbor asked if she could have the single-plank, three-hole outhouse seat. I said sure. Six months later, she invited me to her home. There she showed off her newly designed family room, complete with a single­plank, three-hole picture frame featuring her three grandchil­dren. When my three-year-old was told to pee in a cup at the doctor’s office, he unexpectedly got nervous. With a shaking voice, he asked, “Do I have to drink it?" When asked for his name by the coffee shop clerk, my brother-in-law answered, “Marc, with a C." Minutes later, he was handed his coffee with his name written on the side: Cark. During basic training at Fort Leavenworth, our sergeant asked if anyone had “artistic" abilities. Having been an architectural draftsman in civilian life, I raised my hand. Then the sergeant announced that everyone would get a three-day pass . except me. I would stay behind and neatly print each soldier's name onto his Army-issued underwear. • a My high school assignment was to ask a veteran about World War II. Since my father had served in the Philippines during the war, I chose him. After a few basic questions, I very gin­gerly asked, “Did you ever kill anyone?" Dad got quiet. Then, in a soft voice, he said, “Probably. I was the cook.” The photographer was positioning my new husband and me for our wedding photos when he asked, “Have you ever mod­eled?" ! My cheeks instantly turned red. “No, I haven't,” I said. “But I al­ways thought." The photographer interrupted me: “I meant him." As a Speech therapist, I was working with a preschooler on body-part identification and the k sound. To that end, I had him Play-Doh to make a sculpture of me. “Is that my neck?" I asked, trying to get him to repeat the word. “No, that’s your chin," he said. He added more Play-Doh. “Is that my neck?" I asked. “No, that’s your other chin." Overheard At Our Diner. Girl: lek! Why does this sandwich have bacon on it? Friend: You ordered a BLT. Girl: Whaaaat? I thought the B stood for bread. At an art gallery, a woman and her ten-year-old son were having a tough time choosing between one of my paintings and another artist's work. They finally went with mine. “I guess you decided you prefer an autumn scene to a floral,” I said. “No,” said the boy. “Your painting's wider, so it’ll cover three holes in our wall.” Scotiabank CELEBRATES Small Business Week OCTOBER 17th-21st DIGITAL DEMO DA Y WEDNESDAY, OCT19th THERE WILL BE REFRESHMENTS, PRIZES AND AN OPPORTUNITY TO MEET SOME OKOTOKS STAFF MILO YOGA CLASSES FALL SEASON Jacqueline Knauft Registered Yoga Teacher - 200 hr yogabyjaki@qmail.com voqabyjaki.wordpress.com All Ages Fun Yoga Classes Milo Lutheran Church Basement Mondays 5:45 - 6:30 pm Oct 3, 17, 24, Nov 7, 14, 21, 28, Dec 5, 12, 19. $100 for 10 classes.

October ISSUE 2016 CELEBRATE WITH US! Our grade 4-9 students participated in the Cross Country Run at SABC on September 19fh! The Milo Terry Fox Run was on Friday, Sept. 23rd. The whole school participated along with members of the community. A delicious lunch was prepared by members of the Lions' Club and enjoyed by all. Thank you to the event organizer Joanne Monner and all the volunteers that helped! September has come and gone with a wonderful start to the year. I know there are still many of you busy trying to finish your harvest, and congratulations to those of you who are already done! There are five key components to the IB programme: 1) Global Awareness, 2) Inquiry, 3) Reflection, 4) Action, and 5) Excellence. We welcome dur New Siksika Liaison, Cheri Bear Chief Our new staff are settling in and exciting student learning is well underway! Grade 1-4 students are now learning French, grade 1-9 students have been writing stories and other entries for the Fall Fair, and classroom routines with essential agreements have been made. Schedules include a time for global awareness & critical thinking, a collaborative prep time for teachers, and ample time for reading and writing, crucial for an IB world school. All learning will be designed to help move students toward a deeper understanding of themselves and the world as well as challenge students to think about action. Action refers to the steps they could consider or take to help improve the world or create a solution to a problem within a certain learning topic. Mr. Munton is coaching our volleyball team this year. Practices are Tuesdays and Thursdays and watch the calendar for upcoming games so you can come out and cheer our team on. The IB Programme of Inquiry for our grade 1-6 students has begun with the focus of "Who Are We". The theme is integrated within many curriculum areas throughout the day and around a central theme. For instance, in the grade 1 -3 class their unit of inquiry is 'Belonging' and support the social studies curriculum for grade 1 belonging to groups, and grade 2-3 is learning about quality of life and the rights of children around the world. Our Milo Student Leadership Team this year consists of grade 5-9 students and each in specialty committees for spirit days, décor, athletics, and outreach. Students in grade 7-9 will also have opportunities to serve on 4 Leadership Service Days, while the grade 1-6 will also have opportunities to participate in service activities both in and out of school. Student leadership opportunities for assemblies, announcements and office experience involve grade 1-6 and their own creative input as well. Yours in learning.

The student have great and interesting Ideas. I'm glad I don't have to judge these amazing stories. We had a lot of fun building repeating patterns this month. The students all know how to tell the core of a pattern. The grade threes worked on increasing patterns. Thank you for sending interesting patterns to share with the class. Our first unit is Who we are and it is focusing on the social studies curriculum. The grade ones are looking at groups they belong to and the symbols of groups. The grades 2-3 are looking at quality of life and rights of children around the world. Building patterns in math is sooo much fun!!

Wow! It’s hard to believe that the first few weeks in Class 456 have come and gone! We had a great time settling into our routines and learning new procedures. Already, I can see students beginning to take responsibility for their own learning in a safe, caring classroom. Some of our highlights this month have included learning about Growth Mindset and how our brains are muscles that need to be exercised in order to grow. The major understanding is that mistakes are not only okay, but an expected part of our growth and development! Brain research shows that we actually learn much more as we make mistakes and correct them:) Additionally, we are learning about habits of healthy learners. This month, we have talked about three habits - Being Proactive, Beginning with the End in Mind and Putting First Things First. We have also spent time focused on the IB Learner Profile - looking at what it means to be a caring and principled learner. During our inquiry (Social/Science) time, we have focused on what it means to be a good group member - laying an important foundation for the year's work ahead. In Language Arts we have discussed where we come up with ideas for the stories we write, and why it’s important to read a book about something that interests us. In Math with the Grade 7 to 9 class we have discussed the importance of data, biased data collection, what different types of graphs can tell (and not tell us) and the difference between a mean, median and mode. In homeroom Grades 5-9, the students have chosen to join one of five leadership committees, each with its own area of focus both within and outside the school. These groups include, Spirit Days, Athletics, School Outreach, School Glam Up and Holidays/Special Occasions. In athletics, students in Grades 4-9 travelled to Southern Alberta Bible Camp to compete in the county cross country meet and competed extremely hard. As well, volleyball started last week and we are excited for the new season. Looking ahead, Fountas and Pinnell reading assessments will be completed next week. We are also preparing numerous entries for the Milo Fall Fair that is Saturday, October 1st. Thank you for the warm welcome to the Milo School community! It is going to be a wonderful year of learning! ~Mr. Munton •: Learning with Mr. Tetrault is off to a great start! We are off to a good start getting our routines in order and getting focused on learning. In Language Arts the grades 7-9 students are working with the theme Who Am I? Students have written short biographies of their classmates, and are working through drafting and editing their work and learning about punctuation to improve the quality. We have engaged with several poems, and the grade_9 students have read anecdotes, and memoires. We have been comparing the form and effect of different genres and discussing how to create powerful imagery in writing. We have all learned about the patterns employed in writing fables and the students have begun to write their own fables. You should see some at the fall fair. Grade 7,8's have begun a Who Am I? book club where we are engaging with the novel Fire Girl, while the Grade 9’s have their own book club under the theme of Future Worlds with the novel The Hunger Games as the focus. We will continue these clubs for the next month with some opportunities for creative writing, proof-reading and editing mixed in. In Social Studies Grade 7 and 8’s have been learning about how world-views get formed and how they can be changed. This is a general idea that is explored throughout the year. We have started with investigations into the origins of the. Western world view in the Middle Ages in Europe. Students are creating glossaries and a word wall to help with vocabulary, answering comprehension questions, and creating fictitious dialogues between characters from the historical time period. They will do some drawings as part of a unit on comparing perspectives within specific societies. In Grade 9 we are exploring the Canadian political system. Students are learning to identify perspectives on different issues, and to understand how decisions get made within our political system. Students will soon begin to practice taking on a perspective, arguing for it, and explore how their chosen issue could become part of the political decision making process. They will demonstrate their understanding by writing opinion pieces, and arguing orally for a position. The Grade 4-6's have been working through an assessment phase in math, both with written assessments and online with Math Prodigy, an online math learning program we have just started with. The next topic for all levels will be the identification and classification of different 2D and 3D shapes and their properties, followed by addition skills geared to their specific levels. Math Prodigy can be accessed from home with a computer and internet access. Once students master a skill the program moves them on to the next skill and level. I am looking forward to meeting parents on Meet the Teacher Night and we are all looking forward to the Fall Fair. - Mr. Tetrault The capacity to learn is a gift; the ability to learn is a skill; the willingness to learn is a choice.

CranioSacral Therapy is now available CranioSacral Therapy (CST) is a “light touch” approach that involves gently first assessing the tension in soft tissues surrounding the major components of your central nervous system - primarily the head, spine and pelvic areas Then I use proven body manipulation techniques to relieve stress from those areas, beginning with a touch as light as the weight of a nickel. Sessions are generally deeply relaxing, and create feelings of warmth or gentle pulsing in areas being worked by the therapist. Chronic pain, particularly in the neck and back, and the related discomfort and life stress issues chronic pain causes, can be safely relieved. Think of this as a massage designed for your nervous system instead of muscle tissue. Please ask questions about CST! I welcome the opportunity to share the benefits of this therapy system with you. As a reminder, don't forget that I'm now direct billing Alberta Blue Cross, AESBP, SunLife, Manulife, Great West Life, etc. Massages are available Fridays & Saturdays at Trends by T.C.

The Village of Milo has a Little Library!!! The Vulcan County Early Childhood Development Coalition and Friends of the Milo Library are excited to present the Milo Little Library located at the Milo Library on behalf of our neighbors and our community! The way it works is simple: - We initially stock the Little Library with a variety of good quality books that we hope will interest our neighbors - You stop by and take whatever catches your fancy - You return and bring books to contribute when you,can - Little Library books are always a gift - never for sale! Little Library's mission is to: • Promote literacy and the love of reading by building free bopk exchanges worldwide. • To build a sense of community as we share skills, creativity and wisdom across generations. Check out the LFL story at www.littlefreelibrary.org. Better yet, encourage others to put one up in their area! We hope to see you soon. Special Thanks to Milo Crop Production Services for sponsoring the Little Library in Milo!! Funny True Stories At the mall, my five-year-old grandson joined the other children in line waiting to sit on the Easter Bunny’s lap. When it was his turn, Jake didn’t move; he just stared. “Don’t you want to sit on the bunny’s lap?’’ I asked. “No!" he shouted. “There’s a man in his mouth!” As the hostess at the buffet showed me to my table, I asked her to keep an eye out for my husband, who would be joining me momentarily. I started to describe him: “He has gray hair, wears glasses, has a potbelly .” She stopped me there. “Honey,” she said, “today is senior day. They all look like that.” I’ve been working on my PhD in engineering for the past five years, but my kids don't necessarily see that as work. As we were driving past Walmart one day, my son spotted a Now Hiring sign and suggested that I could get a job there. Hoping to make a point, I asked, “Do you think they’re looking for an engineer?” “Oh, sure,” he said. “They’ll hire anybody.” My sister-in-law was teaching Sunday school class. The topic for the day: Easter Sunday and the resurrection of Christ. “What did Jesus do on this day?” she asked. There was no re­sponse, so she gave her students a hint: “It starts with the letter R.” One boy blurted, “Recycle!" My 90-year-old dad was giving a talk at our local library about his World War II experiences. During the question-and-answer period, he was asked, “How did you know the war was over?" He replied, “When they stopped shooting at me." My five-year-old son is crazy about cars, so I took him to his first car show. He loved seeing all the different models and brands and gushed over the big engines, the colours, and even the wheels. But the car he was most impressed with was a hearse. “Mom!” he shouted. “Look at all this storage!” While volunteering in a soup kitchen, I hit it off with a very attrac­tive single man. It was a relief, since my mother and I always laughed because the men to whom I was drawn were inevita­bly married. So, optimistic about my chances, I asked my new friend what he did for a living. He replied, “I’m a priest.” When my co-worker answered his phone, the confused woman on the other end asked, “Who is this?” “This is Steve. With whom did you wish to speak?” After a pause: “Did you just say whom?” “Yes, I did." The woman replied, “I have the wrong number,” and hung up. Most of our music store customers have a story about their old vinyl collection. Once, a man asked how much a record cost. My co-worker quoted him the price, then added, “But there’s a surcharge if we have to listen to how your mother made you throw out all your old vinyl records.” While on patrol, I arrested a burglar who’d injured himself running from a home. He told me he'd broken in and unhooked the phone before searching for valuables. But he’d panicked when he heard a woman’s voice. I entered the house and heard the same voice: “If you’d like to make a call, please hang up and try your call again.” While I was working as a store Santa, a boy asked me for an electric train set. “If you get your train," I told him, “your dad is going to want to play with it too. Is that all right?” The boy became very quiet. So, moving the conversation along, I asked, “What else would you like Santa to bring you?” He promptly replied, “Another train.” After my niece returned from her second tour in Iraq, I remarked how beautiful her complexion looked. “What do you use on your face to keep it so smooth?” I asked. “Nothing,” she said. “I've been sandblasted.” During orientation at Fort Sill, in Oklahoma, our first sergeant stated that if anyone lost his locker key to see him, as he kept a master key in his office. Sure enough, a few weeks later, I lost my key. I walked into the orderly’s room and asked Sarge if I could borrow his master key. “Why, certainly, young man,” he said, as he reached under his desk and handed me a large pair of bolt cutters. After ¡-messaging back and forth with my wife, I jokingly com­manded Siri to pass along this message: “You need to get back to work now: you have a husband to support.” Here’s what Siri sent: “You need to get back to work now; you have a has-been to support.” My niece was.dragged into court by a neighbor who complained about her barking dogs. At one point, the judge asked the neighbor a question. The neighbor didn’t reply. “Sir, are you going to answer me?” The neighbor leaped to his feet. “Are you talking to me?” he asked. “Sorry; I can't hear a darn thing,” The case was dismissed. A Twitter exchange between an angry customer and an apologet­ic Domino's Pizza: Customer: Yoooo I ordered a Pizza & Came with no Toppings on it or anything, Its Just Bread Domino’s: We’re sorry to hear about this! Customer (minutes later): Never mind, I opened the pizza upside down. The last time we changed from daylight saving time, a preacher friend posted, “For those who habitually show up 15 minutes late to church, allow me to remind you that tonight is the night you set your clock back 45 minutes.” My five-year-old, Matt, worked with a speech therapist on the ch sound, which came out k. The therapist asked him to say chicken. He responded with kitchen. They tried again and again, but it always came out kitchen. Undeterred, she pushed him for one more try. Matt sighed and’said, “Why don't we just call it a duck?"VILLAGE OF MILO ALBERTA VILLAGE OF MILO COUNCIL SPECIAL MEETING MINUTES Tuesday, August 30, 2016 The regular meeting of the council of the Village of Milo was held in the Milo Library on Tuesday, August 30th, commencing at 7:00 pm.

Bernie Kirk Phone: (403)599-3778 Email: mbkirk@live.ca Announcements . -. =3S Cancer Research Thank you Milo's 29th Terry Fox Run took place on Friday September 23rd, 2016 with a cool start that turned into a perfect day for the Run. There are always so many people to thank for making our Run such a success year after year. The Milo Lions Club has been a huge supporter, not only in pledging money and for donating the Dixie ice cream cups but for barbequing hamburgers for all the participants. They were yummy! Thanks to The Elevator (Lloyd Deitz) for donating the burgers, to Prairie Perfection Catering for donating the buns, to CPS - Milo (Lome Umscheid) for donating the juice boxes and to Colleen and Allan Bartsch for their cooking expertise. A special thanks goes to Linda Booth for helping me at the registration booth and to Tracy Heather for manning the water station so her Mom Penny could walk, and to Gary and Mona Middlestead for the use of their golf cart. Thanks to the students, staff and community members who participated and took the time to gather pledges and to those who pledged money to this very worthwhile cause. With the fund raiser held later that night, it still astounded me that the community donated over $8800.00 for this Run. I would like to get all the funds gathered by mid - October to take to Calgary, so please get your money into Tammy at the School or me at the Library.

Again a delicious meal, and you made us seniors feel so special. I had the chance to visit many. By all reports, sounds like Milo’s big birthday party was a huge success and enjoyed by many. All of you volunteers are to be congratulated. You are a most important part of any such venture and it just could not be done without you. Milo and area, not a big population to do the job but they come with a “big heart”. Thanks for a job well done. Good luck and good harvest.

I| Sagewood Update * When moving to Strathmore Sagewood, I thought all would be strangers. But soon found Bette Rapp here, and we had many visits. Also Dorothy McNair was my next door neighbour. She was a great neighbour and we got together many times. However, as you know, they are both gone. Time marches on and new residents come and go. My new next door neighbour is Grace Williams. I knew Grace and Hurly when living/working in Arrowwood. They moved several years ago to the Wheat Country Lodge in Strathmore. Now we are enjoying reconnecting. I hope Grace has many happy years here. I have met and visited with others in the building. Two of these have Milo area connections, Anita Bazant and Caroline Stubbs, two special ladies. Take care, will see you all again, bye for now.
