  • Conservation in Action
    RED DEER COUNTY NEWS OFFICIAL NEWS FROM RED DEER COUNTY CENTRE JULY 2015 CONSERVATION IN AcTION COUNTY HELPS LANDOWNERS CONSERVE 70 ACRES By Ken Lewis, Conservation Coordinator On June 24, 2015, Red Deer County viewed three new conservation projects: a riparian management fence, a watering system to help conserve wetlands, and a watering system to help conserve a creek. For local landowners like Audrey Daines, wetlands have always been an important feature in providing clean water and a healthy landscape. By fencing off their wetland, it will remain a vital place for local wildlife and ground water. Henrik and Jeralyn Rasmussen rent the pasture where they installed their portable watering system. They made sure to purchase enough waterline and wiring, so that they can move the system around to WHAT’S INSIDE: multiple paddocks and water sources as part of their grazing rotation. The creek that Conservation Partners is helping conserve with an off-site watering system is part of the Transit Use on the Rise...........Pg. 2 Waskasoo Creek watershed, which flows right through the City of Red Deer before joining the Red Deer River. So, the connections between these pastures and the perceptions that the general public has about Air Quality Response Plan ....Pg. 8 agriculture in Red Deer County are very direct. Home Safety Quiz ................Pg. 20 These three new projects are just three of the 33 plus projects that Red Deer County landowners have done or are planning to do this year with funding support from Conservation Partners and/or the Alternative Land Use Services program.

  • Transcription of the Isabel Campbell Newspaper Index for Names G
    Transcription of the Isabel Campbell Newspaper Index for Names G Introduction The following table was transcribed by volunteers at South Peace Regional Archives from Isabel Campbell’s card catalogue index of Grande Prairie newspapers. Miss Campbell diligently tracked the history of various Grande Prairie area people as they appeared in local newspapers from 1913 to 1961. Featured newspapers include the Grande Prairie Herald (1913-1938), the Northern Tribune (1932-1939), and the Grande Prairie Herald-Tribune (1939- present). The table is organized in alphabetical order by surname. Newspaper dates featuring items about that person are listed by month, day, and year. The location within the paper is given as a page number and column number on that page. Notes are occasionally given to provide more detail about the content of the article indexed. A specific place is given when one was identified in the article and by Miss Campbell. Where no place is listed, one should assume the place referred to is Grande Prairie. The pdf is word-searchable. The table does not include links to the actual articles mentioned. To read an article, consult the newspaper of that date. The website, Our Future, Our Past: The Alberta Heritage Digitization Project (AHDP), contains digitized copies of Grande Prairie newspapers from 1913-1949 (see http://www.ourfutureourpast.ca/newspapr/place.asp?place=Grande+Prairie&Submit2=Look+up). A complete collection of newspapers (1913-present) is available on microfilm at the Grande Prairie Public Library in the Isabel Campbell room. South Peace Regional Archives does not maintain a complete collection of local newspapers, but may have specific issues.

The community is a commodity, hopefully one that someone wants to invest in. The buyer is a business, developer, or investor that is looking for a community to set up in. 1) First and foremost, the Village of Rycroft needs to target its economic development efforts to those areas most likely to be successful. For example, most small urbans lament the loss of a vibrant retail downtown. This is unfortunately a result of a number of factors such as the increase in online shopping, improvements in transportation, and outdated downtown buildings. But it does not mean the downtown area can’t be re-conceptualized and re-purposed with a strategic vision and purpose guiding your Council decisions.

  • Spring 2010 Alberta Plantwatch Newsletter (PDF)
    Alberta Plantwatch Annual Newsletter - Spring 2010 Greetings to Alberta Plantwatchers! This spring may unfold to be one of our most interesting yet due to the very unusual weather we experienced in 2009…read on! The Weather in 2009 Winter 2009- 2010 in Canada was 4 °C above normal, the warmest and driest since records began in 1948. According to Dave Phillips of Environment Canada, the main reasons were an El Nino, which caused warming of the Pacific Ocean, and shrinking Arctic ice. Precipitation was down 60% in parts of Alberta. Phillips said ‘This may be a dress rehearsal of what we’ll see as normal in years to come’. The El Nino is now strengthening again: see http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/IOTD/view.php?id=43105&src=eoa-iotd , and http://www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/products/analysis_monitoring/enso_advisory/ensodisc.html. It seems likely that central and northern Alberta will have extreme drought this coming season. This could result in water shortages, insect infestations, and wildfires this summer. Out of the top ten weather stories in Canada in 2009, four of them featured our fair province. You probably recall the winter of 2008-2009 that never ended, the spring that never came, the rains that fell too late, and the heat wave that was September. Spring was one of the toughest on record for Alberta farmers, as they experienced persistent cold and frost combined with a strong drought. In Edmonton, the total precipitation in the year ending June 2009 was the lowest since records began in 1880. Just before the official start of summer, several districts in Alberta had declared a drought emergency or disaster.
