just a sport, in a smalltown, hockey is whereplayers make life-longfriendships, parents con-nect with other parents,and often the local arenais a social gathering placefor many members of thecommunity.

Hockey is a culture, it'swhere young peoplelearn about teamwork,

Volunteers are thebackbone of communi-ties and the benefits oftheir dedication can befound across theVegreville-Wainwrightconstituency.

It is important,according to Vegreville-Wainwright MP LeonBenoit, to once againrecognize the efforts ofthose who give so gen-erously of their time.

“As I walk downMain Streets and visitrecreation centresacross the Vegreville-Wainwright constituen-cy I see the differencevolunteers make in ourcommunities every day.

"Without the effortsof volunteers manysmall towns and organ-izations simply would-n’t exist,” said Benoit.

“On behalf of theGovernment ofCanada, I invite every-one to join me in thank-ing our volunteers formaking our communitystronger and morevibrant.”

The Government ofCanada values the ded-ication of the millionsof Canadians who giveso generously of theirtime and recognized

their efforts recently onInternational VolunteerDay.

Volunteerism isimportant to Canadaand to the vitality of thenot-for-profit sector,which relies heavily onvolunteers.

The value of volun-teer work in Canada isestimated to be around$14 billion.

In Jan. 2011, theG o v e r n m e n tannounced the creationof the Prime Minister’sVolunteer Awards. The

awards were created torecognize the excep-tional contributions ofvolunteers and organi-zations working toimprove the well-beingof families and commu-nities.

Approximately 7.5per cent of theCanadian population,representing over 2.5million people, is affect-ed by food allergies andanother 250,000 haveceliac disease.

This number has beenrising owing to betterdiagnosis, more aware-ness and to an overallincreased incidence offood intolerance.

“Currently there is nocure for food allergiesor for celiac disease, sothose affected have no

choice but to avoidoffending foods,” saysAnnette Anderwald,with AlbertaAgriculture and RuralDevelopment. “Thismeans that the marketopportunities for “freefrom” (gluten-free,dairy-free, nut-free, andothers) food productsare booming.”

A recent study indi-cated that the globalfood allergy and intol-erance products marketis projected to surpass$26 billion by the year2017.

A workshop is being

organized for Albertaproducers and proces-sor who want to createproducts that serve thismarket.

The Allergic andGluten Free LivingWorkshop is beingoffered by AlbertaAgriculture and RuralDevelopment inEdmonton on February21, 2012.

Workshop presenterswill offer valuableinsight into this grow-ing market which willenable attendees to:

• evaluate how theymight profit by devel-

oping “free from” foodproducts

• identify the types ofproducts needed to fillthe gaps in “free from”diets

• determine theunique needs of thosefollowing these specialdiets

• assemble resourcesrequired to develop“free from” foods

• create a marketingstrategy for “free from”foods

• understand the newCanadian food aller-gens and gluten sourcelabeling regulations

which come into forceon August 4, 2012

In addition to experi-encing hands-on whatit is like to have to fol-low a special diet, par-ticipants will be able tosample a variety ofallergen and gluten freesnacks from what is

currently available inthe marketplace.

The cost of the work-shop is $30. Seating isalmost at capacity. Calltoll-free 1-800-387-6030to register. For furtherinformation, contactAnderwald at 780-644-2404.

The Battle RiverAlliance for EconomicDevelopment (BRAED)started a ball rolling witha Youth Retention Forumheld in Camrose late in2010, inviting JuniorAchievement (JA) toattend and make a presen-tation. Attendees of theforum sought to exploreways of increasing accessto youth-focussed entre-preneurship program-ming and services in theregion.

"The JuniorAchievement programreally seemed to fit into allour economic develop-ment plans regardingyouth retention," saidJennifer Fossen, EconomicDevelopment Coordinatorfor Flagstaff County, whoattended the BRAEDforum.

"We didn't waste timeon this," Fossen added,saying she went directlyto the Battle River SchoolDivision (BRSD) for per-mission to approach areaschools.

Not only did they getthat, but BRSDSuperintendent of SchoolsDr. Larry Payne also sentan introductory letter toschools on their behalf,strongly encouragingprincipals to find studentsto participate in the pro-gram.

JA representatives metwith some school person-nel and county staff earlyin December to providemore information on spe-cific projects available.

Javier Salazar from JAalong with a JuniorAchiever made a presen-tation at

Sedgewick's CentralHigh's last student assem-bly in December, beforeChristmas, giving stu-dents a first-hand oppor-tunity to hear about JAprograms.

Salazar also made apresentation to schoolprincipals Jan. 10.

Dr. Payne introducedSalazar at that meeting,saying, "Supporting theconcept of rural sustain-ability is pretty importantto Battle River SchoolDivision.

"All of our communitiesare rural communities. "

"The future health ofour school division iscompletely tied to thefuture health of our ruralcommunities."

"That’s why we’reworking... to supportrural sustainability proj-ects and initiatives.

"One of those initiativesis related to the engage-ment of youth and findingways of encouraging themto stay or return to ruralAlberta. The goal is tohelp our young people seethe value and potential forthemselves right here athome, so they’ll considerstaying here or returninghere after post-secondaryschool," added Payne.

"Battle River [SchoolDivision] is happy toendorse the idea of JuniorAchievement." While JAoffers a number of differ-ent programs, FlagstaffCounty will bring their"Company Program" in,which is aimed at stu-dents from grades nine to12.

Fossen says that as apilot project, they are con-

centrating onSedgewick and

Central High stu-dents this year, but stress-es that the program isopen to anyone, even ifthey decide after the Feb.7 start date.

Flagstaff's JuniorAchievers will be meetingfrom Feb. to June, every

Tuesday in the newCounty build-

ing.

"We have the room, thiswill be a good use for it,"

said Fossen.Flagstaff County

has com-m i t t e d

three staff tothe initiative, and

also participating as men-tors are Darlene Curtisfrom Community Futuresof East Central Alberta,and Bud James, BRAEDChair, Mayor of Killam,and small-business owner.

The five will be headingto JA for a mentor-training

program within the next10 days.

The Junior AchievementCompany programinvolves groups of 15 stu-dents, who will start acompany, raise capital forthat company, researchproducts, market and sellthe products, and then atthe end of the year, willliquidate the business.

The process takes stu-dents through businessand financial planning,and also gives them manyvaluable experiences andskills that will help themin any endeavour theyencounter in their future.

Participating in JuniorAchievement can offer upsome unusual opportuni-ties as well.

Besides over $20,000 inavailable scholarships inNorthern Alberta andNWT a recent JuniorAchiever had the pleasureof lunching with BrettWilson of CBC's Dragon'sDen, a program whereentrepreneurs seek ven-ture capital, advice, andeven partnerships, at thecost of a percentage oftheir company, and arejudged based on the via-bility of their presenta-tions.

"When we were seekinginitiatives to keep youngpeople in the area, JuniorAchievement's CompanyProgram hit the nail onthe head," said Fossen.

"The kids can partici-pate every year from

grades nine through 12,every year will be differ-ent."

"We're honoured towork with the school sys-tem and JuniorAchievement. If it helpsus to engage future entre-preneurs to the area, evenbetter."

"I believe this programwill really give youngpeople the tools to maketheir goals a reality."

Usually confined tourban centres, JuniorAchievement programsare also found in DraytonValley, Leduc, and Ft.McMurray.

"I believe Tofield schoolhas also started a pilotprogram," said Fossen,"but for younger grades."

If young people learnthe basics of doing busi-ness while still in highschool, it might give thema better understanding ofwhat they want to do afterschooling, and what typeof business they can formif they find that they wantto continue to make theirhomes in rural Alberta asadults.

That would certainlymeet the goals of manyeconomic developmentgroups, who recognizethat youth retention, hav-ing young families andtheir children living in thecommunity, is one of thestrongest ways to keepgrowth and vibrancywithin a small communi-ty.
