Challenges we face in bringing all the good things every rural municipality such as Milo needs - paved streets, economic opportunities and jobs for our residents, fully served Fire Hall, safe community, and what have you? Africans have a saying “if you want to travel fast, travel alone but if you want to travel far, then travel together. ” Yes, we have to do this travel together; there are challenges like any other community, but together, Milo will be able to build a thriving sustainable community where everyone can proudly call home. And yes, again, it can be done. The Village of Milo can do it. Just ask me why and I will give you just three (3) answers: 1. Milo is a community where a resident on his off-day, takes his mower and clear weeds in the village. 2. A community where an individual turn his personal truck into a Garbage Truck just to pick-up the Village trash without charge. 3. A community where a resident walks into the Village Office and say, I want to pay every cent I owe the Village so that the Village administration can function properly. These are just a few remarkable things happening in Milo that will grow the community. It is going to be a journey done through engagement and participation. For it is a journey we are going to do together and I am certain we can collectively and effectively manage the challenges we face here in Milo.

With just over a month from start to finish, I am so pleased to say that this wonderful community fulfilled all of the goals and achievements that I had set out (in my head) to accomplish. With just under 200 people in attendance, we were able to raise right around the $11,000 mark. I am so overwhelmed at all of the special donations that came in to support our projects, whether it be a silent auction item or a cash donation. Businesses and people just began coming rvi iF rv hF fTi A T \uoci oli 11 ranDiiarm romlAcfc rlAnofp uui ux uiv^ vv vv\jliv axxxx x vvao oim i^vv/ivmg iv\juvou tv uvuuw the day of the event! What a wonderful assortment of items we had from wine labeled “Liberty School”, baskets with exorbitant amounts of home made things, to “10 acres of Canola Production (with everything you would ever need to do this), it was very neat to see what was donated. I was so taken aback when I saw someone leaving with a basket of things that I hadn’t even seen donated! The giving nature of Milo and the surrounding areas was undoubtedly a surprise to some who have not experienced it yet. I want to thank all of those who helped in so many ways to help spread the word of our event and sold tickets and passed on e-mails and Facebook updates. I received many calls from people in other places wanting info about the night. A tremendous thank you also goes to those wonderful people who volunteered their time in many different ways to help out. There were a few places that I didn’t have enough pre-planning done and once again, people just stepped up and helped to fill in those spots that needed more volunteers. And especially to those of you who willing filled in as I coerced you that night! Already there have been many suggestions on how to make things even better for the next time. Thank you again to the Milo Ag. Society board for all of their help to pull this together in such a short time. Without everyone working together, this event would not have been a success. So thank you to everybody! Sincerely, Katie WalkerBook Reviews from Happy Acres Hello again readers! Time to share my views on some recent reads, both Fiction and Non- Fiction. I would also like to take this opportunity to invite other readers out there to share your opinions. The only thing better (and by that I mnon mnro +mcHarrvrtVnr^ than on0 V)QQl< r0YT0W *“w'**‘ ~ ---~ --- * --- is a second review of the same book by another person. So how about it? Suggested titles or authors could be sent by email, we build a list, and submit reviews. I’ll put my email at the end, and welcome your comments. Area 51 - An Uncensored History of America’s Top Secret Military Base (Non-Fiction [really.] By Annie Jacobsen) Nothing gets the conspiracy gene expressing itself better than Area 51 - the spot that is so secret it still does not officially exist. Unlike other stuff out there, this book is a compilation of memories by men who actually worked and lived on the base from it’s beginning. Only the de-classification of some projects and public release of information by Freedom of Information requests has allowed these men to speak after all the years, and they tell a fascinating tale. Nuclear rocket engines? Dirty bomb tests? Astronauts training in H- Bomb craters? It’s all there and more. Perhaps the most astounding claims are those made about the Roswell Incident, and what was really on that craft. Isolation Ward / Flawless (Fiction by Joshua Spanogle) I’m becoming a fan of medical thrillers, and have chewed through a bunch - but this guy is my favourite. Spanogle is an M.D. and creates a wonderfully complex and realistic hero who works as an investigator for the Center for Disease Control & Prevention (CDC) in Atlanta Georgia. Plots involve all the scary components of plagues, big pharmaceutical companies and human greed and weakness. Here is my ultimate compliment - with weaker authors I can burn through the last pages, knowing what action will take place and how the tale will end. With both these books the action was believable to the last page - no skimming, just solid suspense and real life endings. Read Isolation Ward first as the character continues in Flawless. Triptych (Fiction by Karin Slaughter) Now for an adults only police procedural - and a very powerful novel full of surprises. Nothing is as it seems at first. No one is totally good or bad; both villains and heroes have two sides. Suspense builds quickly, the action is believable and again, a real life ending. I’m about to start reading another novel by this author, and am actually saving it for a time when I can read cover to cover if I want. Robopocalypse (Fiction by Daniel Wilson) Here I fell for a highly touted new novel about the dreaded Rise of The Robots - a premise science fiction (and screenplay - watch the movie I Robot) writers have played with for a long time. The book is a dark view of a possible future that is fast approaching as computer power and artificial intelligence research roars ahead. The cover art should sell a lot of copies in airports, and the style is unique, but this is one where I could use a second opinion. Not 5 books for me. My email is theroon@xplornet.com and I welcome your help at making this column more entertaining for all book readers. Keep reading!

Be still and know that 1 am God Psalm 46 I think this is just a continuation of iast month's article to encourage everyone to take some time during the summer to just slow down and let your batteries recharge before the hectic fall harvest time hits. It is often in these quiet moments that God will speak to you - what voice or medium He will choose to use is for us to figure out. When I was a youngster all too many years ago, I could never figure out why my parents could just sit and people watch. There were things that needed doing, games to be played, anything but sitting and watching the rest of the world go by. Now, of course, I am a past master of the art of people watching, and sunset watching, and my favourite of all, being a prairie person, watching the movement of the ocean waves. All too often, we do not take the time to indulge in this simple pleasure because there are always things that need doing, cellphones that draw us back into the real world, problems to solve, messes to be fixed and only we are capable of doing all of that. I think often we might be better off if we ignored all of that and just take a few moments (hours, days, weeks) just for ourselves and let the rest of the world get along without us. We all feel we are indispensable and are really hurt to find out that we are not. So why not sit down and rest a spell and see if God has been trying to get through and you were just too busy to hear His voice In our lives, God is often acting without our knowing about it. It is usually only when we look back that we can see where God has been active in our lives; sometimes in ways that don't make sense right now, for God has His own plan for us. So take the time to sit and listen for the voice of God. There are examples in the Bible of Him speaking through angels, from the fiery bush, through a whirlwind, or in the silence. God, being God, is not limited to one voice or one way of speaking. Be open to what God is saying to you this summer. It might even be, "Get Thee to Church!"

CALL NOW 403-934-5294A Boomer’s Moment Gourmet or Gourmand? By Carole Smith Wallace One of the recent developments in the world of the worldly is the specialty interest club. They range from stamp collecting to gourmet food. It is the latter that I want to talk about. Early in my career as a yuppie, I was approached by a triend to join her at a wine and food tasting affair. It was held by her club members who gathered on a monthly basis to taste, observe, enjoy, critique and quibble over the food produced in many of the city s best restaurants. Meetings were for the specific purpose of trying out every kind of exotic and domestic wine and food that the members could devour. For a food-a-holic- like me, it seemed the perfect milieu. One of the senior members was a wine fanatic who later opened up one of the city’s first wine shops. Another wrote a restaurant column for a local rag. One sold all the hardware and gear for preparing meals and serving them, just like you tasted at this or that meeting. The rest of us were just plain old eaters and drinkers from a way back. We trailed from restaurant to winery sampling the finest and the worst of the world’s edibles and potables. Our repertoire of gourmandisms grew as did our waistlines. On one of my favourite occasions, a wine-tasting put on by the French Counsel-General, I took a girl friend for company. This friend was sophisticated and, I thought, worldly. It never occurred to me to tell her not to chug each glass, but merely to swirl for colour, smell for bouquet, and finally to sip for taste and body. She downed thirty (30) one ounce portions of good French wine that night and even after an equivalent amount of coffee (black) was not able to drive her Alpha Romeo home. So much for sophistication! The variety of dining offered by this group in a year was exhaustive, but the choices were left to the hosts of each establishment and this sometimes led to menus with some questionable items — like Prairie Oysters. On one occasion, at a restaurant in cattle country, fall harvest was celebrated with the famed barbecued bulls’ ball and pumpkins filled with a morass of vegetables. Although the vegetables were not bad, and exotic, no doubt, even my somewhat educated palate was left wondering. Another aspect of the group was the "going to camp’ atmosphere that bussing this club to various venues brought out. Gradually the veneer of worldliness wore off and the kids out for a good time took over. This was not I joined for, but in the end it was the most enjoyable part of these soirees. It was the people, not the potables, that made these meals gourmet. After a year of this, I gave up the club and kept the best of the friendships.August 2011 Milo Library Milo Library Instructables (http:// www.instructables. com) X Illp Vn^ l/OltV^ UV/LQ like a wiki for in­structions.

Valid until Aug 31, 2011A Farmer’s Life The Department of Labor claimed a small town farmer was not paying proper wages to his help and sent an agent out to investigate him. Department of Labor employee: I need a list of your employees and how much you pay them. Farmer: Well, there's my farm hand whom been with me for 3 years. I pay him $200 a week plus free room and board. Then there's the mentally challenged worker. He works about 18 hours every day and does about 90% of all the work around here. He makes about $10 per week, pays his own room and board, and I buy him a bottle of bourbon every Saturday night so he can cope with life. He also sleeps with my wife occasionally. An old cowboy, dressed to kill, with cowboy shirt, hat, jeans, spurs and chaps, went to a bar and ordered a drink. As he sat there sip ping his whiskv, a young lady sat down next to him. After she ordered her drink, she turned to the cowbov and asks him, "Are you a real cow­boy?" "Well, I have spent my whole ’ife on the ranch herding cows, bre.il; horses, mending fences . I gues- am," replies the cowboy. After a short while he asks hei what she is. "I've never been on a ranch so I'm not a cowboy, but 1 am a lesbian. I spend my whole day thinking about women. As soon as 1 get up in the morning I think of women, when 1 eat, shower and watch TV, everything seems to make me think of women," says the young woman. A short while later, she left and the cowboy ordered another drink A couple sat down next to him and asked, "Are you a real cow­boy?" "1 always thought I was, but 1 just found out I'm a lesbian." Department of Labor employee: That’s the guy I want to talk to.the mentally challenged one. Farmer: That would be me. The nice part about living in a small town is that when you don’t know what you’re doing, someone else does! There are two theories to arguing with women Neither one works.PARTS & SERVICE TO ALL MAKES AND MODELS HOT TUB SPRING TUNE UP SPECIAL $249.95 REG $499.95 INCLUDES ALL NEW SEALS, BEARINGS, O-RINGS, CONTACTORS, UPDATING MICROPROCESSOR, COVER CONDITIONING, PIPE FLUSH AND FILTER (MOST SPAS) ADD $100.00 FOR DRAIN, CLEAN AND FILL Shane Gregoire Certified Factory Trained Master Technician with over 20 years experience 403-599-0009 No Bull Pricing & Warranty No call out fee within 30km’s of MiloShould Vulcan County be in the Land Ownership business?

In 1984. Winnipeg Blue Bombers general manager, Paul Robson, left the Grey Cup behind after and indoor celebration at the Winnipeg Arena, but when he rushed back the trophy was still at center stage in the silent, empty rink. The week before the 1939 Grey Cup in Toronto, the weather turned wet and then cold. In an attempt to soften the rock-hard turf, the grounds crew poured 400 gallons of gasoline on the field and set it ablaze the day before the game. The Baltimore Stallions became the first CFL team based in the United States to play for the Grey Cup in 1994, and then win it in 1995. There were only three seasons in the entire history of the CFL that teams were located in the United States; 1993, 1994, and 1995. The lowest attendance ever for a CFL game was 2,350 people when the Las Vegas Posse hosted the Winnipeg Blue Bombers. It is said that 800 of those spectators came from Winnipeg. In the seven seasons from 1991 10 1997, Doug Flutie was named Canadian Football League Most Outstanding Player of the Year six times. MILO LIONS CLUB NEWS COMING EVENTS AUGUST 2011 .

ANNUAL LIONS BARBECUE Sunday, August 14 1:30 p.m. Milo Community Hall“Burt’s Point of View” In last months “Point of View”, I briefly described mudder’s 90th “One of Thooose Days” celebration when my sister, Brenda and I, flew to Nova Scotia in June. I say briefly, because if I were to explain in full detail the events of my wonderful round trip full of memories, the Milo Canopener would be renamed “Milo Burt’s Eyeopener”. Unfortunately, due to weather conditions, there were two festival events I was looking forward to but, missed out on both; the Governor General’s garden party and a celebration of my hometown, where I would have had an excellent opportunity to reunite with friends from the past. That doesn’t mean I didn’t enjoy my visit and wasn’t entertained. The biggest and main event was mudder’s 90th birthday bash, it was a time to remember, it was also a time she will remember. Plus, it was a Father’s Day celebration for all the fathers that attended. The day following, I was invited over to my cousins for a belated Father’s Day lobster dinner; all I had was a big juicy lobster, that is all I wanted, no extras. And another wonderful socializing, visited my aunt and uncle in the country, it was a very entertaining day after which they took me out for supper to their favorite restaurant. I indulged in a plate of scallops with French fries, and none went to waste believe you me. Mudder was very wnrried about her little boy; I arrived home very late, 9:43, PM that is. “Mothers never stop worrying about their children A couple nights later I was invited over to friends and on their BBQ was a big salmon, that wasn’t all, a shrimp salad to start the meal off. Now that I think of it, 1 can’t remember what I had for dessert, one thing for sure, it wasn’t fishy. And another time to remember; spent some valuable time with my sister, Judi, from Toronto. Also, Judi and I were invited to join friends that we haven’t seen for years, out to a restaurant called, “The Bicycle Thief’, (not a very impressive name). Even you might have heard of the husband, his name is Bobby Arvon, an entertainer on cruise ships and sang the theme song for the TV series show “Happy Days”. Can’t remember exactly when I saw Bobby and his wife, Judy, last, but must have been well over 40 years, at least. After enjoying an interesting conversation and tasty lunching of shrimp in a special sauce, I attempted to unlock mudder’s car door, but to my surprise, no keys. No problem locating them; just glanced at the ignition switchthrough the windshield when I removed the violation ticket. The parking meter must have been installed while we were in the restaurant, it sure weren’t there when we parked, at least we didn’t see it. Fortunately, our friend had AAA whereas he is an American citizen (I think), anyway, he called them and was covered. After I had a hot chocolate and the others had coffee, AAA came within the time we were told, 14 an hour. (I’m not sure, but don’t think they come all the way from the States.) Within seconds I had mudder’s keys. What was the bright side? We had more time to spend with our friends, plus a few more laughs. And another entertaining event was when I visited my aunt and uncle, about 14 drive or more from Dartmouth, I arrived just before noon. Without my informative gal, (GPS), it would probably take me three times longer. For lunch she, (my aunt that is) served me a crust of bread; actually, they were making sandwiches to take to the legion for a special function and I took advantage of the crust, plus she prepared me a very tasty grilled cheese sandwich. Also, for entertainment, there was a band and dancing. With pleasure, I participated. (I wanted to dance with the 92, or 93-year lady, but was turned down; she knew I wasn’t a legion member.) It was the day before I left to fly back; I went up to the country and visited a lady that used to live next door at the time. I was just a kid, I can’t remember exactly, maybe about 10 or 11, a school buddy and I used to keep her wood box full after school. I was welcomed with opened arms, and that was another exciting and sentimental moment. So you see, it was a time to remember and cherish. To some, my story may not be such a big deal, in my opinion, and should be yours, being with family, relatives and friends is far more important than all the riches in the world. “So There!!” And that was “My Point of View” (9$>rirt The special function!! It was a ceremony for a 92, or 93-year lady, to receive a lifetime membership to their legion branch. Following, a fantastic lunch was served, including my favorite, date squares. If God had really intended men to fly, he'd make it easier to get to the airport.____________________Batteries Sizes: AAA, AA, C, D 6 to 9 volt, cell (watch) batteries Small—No car batteries The Milo School is collecting batteries DROP BOXES @ Milo Green Foods Milo Community School Help save the Environment!!Thank you Thank you to everyone who joined us for the steak and lobster feed on July 22, to those who purchased silent auction items, and to our many donors listed below!
