THE TUSCANY SUN SEPTEMBER 2011 7 Sports in Tuscany Successful Year for West Valley Mites Wow, what a great showing from the West Valley Girl Mite softball teams! The West Valley Mites 2 team, “The Flying Purple People Eaters” (all first- year softball / fastpitch players) from the communities of Tuscany, Scenic Acres, Silver Springs, Bowness, and Bearspaw continued with their successful season by winning the Division 2A City Championships in late June. The playoff format was a double-knockout “Flying Purple People Eaters” format, and after losing their first game to the Airdrie 1 team (who had been undefeated in all three head to head games during the regular season), the girls persevered through the mosquitoes and rainstorms to win four consecutive games to claim the championship (including beating the Airdrie 1 team two times in the A side final). The playoffs proved to be a true team effort, with key contributions from all the players. Highlights included key first-time home runs, inning-ending strikeouts, defensive “BBombs” plays at the home run line, and of course key base stealing! Given that the girls only won three games all year in the nemesis, the SBR Strikers, and despite The West Valley teams then combined regular season, winning four consecutive a great effort, they lost their first playoff with players from other communities and games when it really mattered was a game to the Strikers. However, the girls formed “The Mad Batters.” This team great way to finish the year! The team fought back to meet the Strikers again went to the Provincial Championship in was comprised of: Xochi Macleod, Tori in the City finals, where they won two Sherwood Park and won seven straight Roach, Alyson Meyer, Shana Hekman, consecutive games against the Strikers games over two weekends to win the Kaitlin Fong, Alison Cameron, Karissa to claim gold in the City Championship.

  • Harry M. Sanders Truth and Reconciliation Notes for Ward 9
    HARRY M. SANDERS TRUTH AND RECONCILIATION NOTES FOR WARD 9 1. Introduction In 2015, the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada (TRC) released its final report, titled Honouring the Truth, Reconciling for the Future. The commission and its report ​ ​ addressed the damaging legacy of the residential school system and the policy behind it, which the report described as “cultural genocide.” At that time, City Council directed the Calgary Aboriginal Urban Affairs Committee to craft a response, which was published in 2016 as White Goose Flying: A Report to Calgary City Council on the Indian Residential School ​ Truth and Reconciliation—Calls to Action. In this context, Ward 9 Councillor Gian-Carlo ​ Carra concluded that a local-level response from his ward office would also be appropriate. Notably, Ward 9 includes the former site of the Calgary Indian Industrial School, an Anglican residential school that operated between 1896 and 1907. One of its students was Jack White Goose Flying (ca. 1878–1899), a Peigan teenager who died at the school and was the only student to be buried on its campus. The White Goose Flying ​ report was named for him. Councillor Carra tasked the author with examining evidence and reporting on the known associations of indigenous peoples with the area that comprises Ward 9. Using archival and published sources, archaeological reports, original research in newspaper accounts, and consultation with archaeologist Brian Vivian (a senior partner with Lifeways of Canada), the author has identified some of those associations, which have been categorized as follows: ● Indigenous peoples’ occupation/use of the land before contact/settlement (addressed below through archaeological evidence) ● Associations, including those of Métis people, following non-indigenous settlement/development (addressed below through written historical evidence and published sources) ● Names applied to natural features, built structures, neighbourhoods, etc.
