Village Voice Summer 2007 VILLAGE VOICE [> Io W SUMMER 2007 MUKRAINIAN ROOTS—ALBERTA PRIDE A unique celebration of Ukrainian heritage will take place at the Ukrainian Village on Sunday, August 12. Ukrainian Day is the Village’s largest annual event celebrating the ethnic pride and cultural diversity of Ukrainian-Canadians, and is co-presented with the Ukrainian Canadian Congress- Alberta Provincial Council. The event includes music, dance, crafts and traditional foods. This year’s event theme is Ukrainian Roots – Alberta Pride. A highlight of this year’s event will be the appearance of Premier Ed Stelmach. Mr. Stelmach has been a frequent guest at Ukrainian Day celebrations in past years in his capacity as MLA for Fort Saskatchewan- Vegreville. Mr. Stelmach’s participation in this year’s event shows his continued support for the goals of the Village and its Friends Society as well as his respect for the contri- bution of Ukrainian-Albertans to the devel- opment of this Province. We are honoured that he will be a part of the 2007 Ukrainian Day celebration. Ukrainian Day 2007 offers a whole day of varied activities for visitors to the Village. The Day begins with Divine Liturgy in the Village’s historic Ukrainian Catholic and Ukrainian Orthodox Churches. Both services begin at 9:30 am. St. Nicholas Russo-Greek Orthodox church & the 1980 Ukrainian Day crowd. The Centenary Pioneer Program recognizes families who settled in east central Alberta over 100 years ago. At 11:30 am the Unveiling & Blessing of Centenary Pioneer Name Plaques will take place at the Pioneer Monu- ment located just north of the Pylypow House. MCONTINUED At 12:30, a memorial service will take place honouring Veterans and those serving in our Armed Forces. This service is held in conjunction with the Royal Canadian Legion and takes place at the Legion Cenotaph. The Centenary Pioneer Program continues its unique registry and recognition of Ukrainian-Canadian pioneers. Families who registered with the Program and indicated that their ancestors arrived in Alberta in 1907 or ear- lier will be part of the Centenary Certificate Presentations at the Bandshell at 1:00pm. Premier Stelmach is scheduled to present the certificates to this year’s recipients. One of the most popular activities at each Ukrainian Day is the Concert, co-produced with the Ukrainian Cana- dian Congress-Alberta Provincial Council. The concert will begin at 2:00pm at the Bandshell and will feature a unique assortment of Alberta talent. Fans of Ukrainian dance will be treated to the dazzling steps of Vegre- ville’s Sopilka Dance Ensemble and Calgary’s Tryzub Dance Ensemble. World-renowned classical guitarist Peter Polujan will perform his exquisite arrangements of Ukrainian folk tunes. The ever-popular Kubasonics of Edmonton will be on hand with their own eclectic brand of traditional and original Ukrainian music, featur- ing an array of exotic folk instruments and spiced with wacky humour. In a nod to this year’s theme Ukrainian Roots – Alberta Pride, the concert will also feature a performance by Edmonton’s alt-country sensations The Uncas. This talented 5 piece group has Ukrainian roots, and has been spreading their Alberta pride to enthusi- astic audiences across Canada. The program will also feature the presentation of the UCC-APC’s Michael Luchkowich Award and Roman Brytan, the popular host of WorldFM’s Ukrainian Program, will act as Master of Ceremonies. In addition to the sights and sounds of Ukrainian music and dance, Ukrainian Day 2007 will offer the tastes and smells of the Taste of Ukraine Food Fair located near the Bandshell and featuring a variety of traditional Ukrainian dishes. The Friends Barn will feature demonstrations of traditional Ukrainian crafts while the Village Courtyard will feature the Village Market and ongoing entertainment. If all this is not enough, visitors are encouraged to visit the His- toric Village itself. Take a step back in time and interact with Albertans from the 1920s. Ukrainian Day 2007 promises full day of events for all tastes. Come and celebrate Ukrainian Roots – Alberta Pride.

MUKRAINIAN DAY—A HISTORY Ukrainian Day celebrations, organized in cooperation with the Ukrainian Canadian Congress-Alberta Provin- cial Council, have been taking place since 1971. The following information documenting the history of Ukrainian Day is taken from an Honours Thesis by Michael Mlynarz. When the Ukrainian Cultural Heritage Village opened under Government management, its first Special Event was Ukrainian Day. Ukrainian Day celebrations had been organized decades earlier by a committee of pio- neers and originally held elsewhere, often at Elk Island National Park. Since that time, Village special events have changed greatly both in terms of quantity and type of activities involved. Ukrainian Day has been held at the Ukrainian Village site since 1977, and has often been organized around different themes. In 1977, the day featured Ukrainian dancers, speakers, orchestras, and choirs. In 1980, Ukrainian Day commemorated the establishment of the “Pioneer Family” statue by Leo Mol. 1986 was espe- cially marked by a tribute to Michael Luchkovich, the first Ukrainian-Canadian to be elected as a Member of Parliament. In 1989, the “Year of the Ukrainian Language” was highlighted. The 1993 event commemorated the Na- tional Internment Operations of 1914- 1920. The celebration of the event in 2003 was marked by Divine Liturgies, a Legion Memorial Service, food fairs, musical displays, a Ukrainian Commu- nity Showcase, and children’s activi- ties. The 2004 event was significant for the introduction of the Centennial Pio- neer Recognition Program commemo- rating east central Alberta families of Ukrainian ancestry who had been in Canada for over 100 years. The 1986 Ukrainian Day attracted 15,035 people; since then this number has ranged be- tween a low of 2,154 in 1990 to a high of 8,982 in 1988.

Although I have been President of the Friends for over a year, this is my first opportunity, with our re-launched newsletter, to address our members in this forum. I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of you for your interest and continued support of the Village and hope to continue to meet more of you through the remainder of the busy summer season at the site and through the balance of the year. In some ways, evolution and change have been the hallmark of the last year. Barry Manchak, the previous manager of Village, has retired and our new manager Charlene Garvey has enthusiastically taken his place. We look forward to working with Charlene to grow the Village to its full potential. Recently, our executive direc- tor for the past number of years, Slavko Nohas, has moved on to a position with the Alberta Government. On behalf of the past and present Boards and Members of the Friends, we wish Slavko the best of luck in his new position and sincerely thank him for his dedication to Friends. Despite the recent changes, some things remain constant. The Friends continue to advocate for the Village En- richment project. You will have read in the previous issue of the recent acquisitions of historic

  • D Administrator Responds to Resident Survey ]
    2950 E. Twelve Mile Rd. • Warren, Michigan 48092 • June 2019 www.pvm.org D Administrator Responds to Resident Survey ] Residents had good questions and concerns during the survey; here is Advocacy pg. 11 the latest batch of my answers. Birthdays pg. 9 Help button only works inside the building. Faith pg. 2 That is true, but the help button does work inside the building and everyone should be thankful for it, especially since there is no cost to Maintenance pg. 3 residents. Not all senior buildings provide devices. As technology New Resident pg. 3 improves and prices drop, perhaps in time we can get GPS technology on the help button. And remember: the help button only works if you Recipe pg. 4 wear it especially in the shower where many falls occur. Word Search pg. 8 Apartments are not equipped with fire extinguishers. Each apartment has a smoke alarm, two fire cans under the stove hood, multiple sprinklers and a fire-rated front door. Many people would not be able to use fire extinguishers so in buildings such as ours, having the automatic sprinklers in the apartments is safer. The public areas (hallways, stairways, etc.) have hard-wired smoke alarms, automatic lights, sprinklers, automatic fire doors, fire extinguishers and a sophisticated fire alarm system. We contract with Erlich Protection Systems, Fire Systems of Michigan and Fire Extinguisher Sales and Service for yearly equipment and system inspections. The City of Warren Fire Marshall visits yearly and makes sure that these inspections have taken place. Residents can feel secure because of the care put into the building’s fire safety plan.
