Chopped Leaf support DinoArts

On June 30, 2017, members of the Drumheller DinoArts Association received a donation from the new Chopped Leaf restaurant in Drumheller. The Drumheller DinoArts Association gave the sabre tooth tiger in front of The Chopped Leaf a fresh coat of paint earlier this summer and as a thank you, The Chopped Leaf provided a generous donation to the group.

Funds donated to DinoArts are matched by the Drumheller and District Chamber of Commerce, and are used by the group to cover the costs of repairing and painting the “cementosaur” dinosaurs around town, and to purchase new dinosaur structures and art pieces. The DinoArts Association is very grateful to The Chopped Leaf for its support.

The group has some exciting upcoming projects this year, including a new dinosaur to be installed by the Napier Theatre, the re-painting of the dinosaur footprints along the sidewalks downtown, and the painting of the Co-op dinosaurs.

At the donation are DinoArts members Barb Lubinski, Marley Henneigh, Kalon Sykes (left side front to back) and Cory Miles (back right) along with Nathan Bosch of The Chopped Leaf (front right).

Residents and visitors tired of the rough and tumble road as they travel between McDonald’s and Husky on Highway 9 will soon be getting a respite.
Alberta Transportation will be undertaking resurfacing work on Highway 9 from 1st Street SW  to 2nd  Street  SE next week.
Milling work (which is removing the current road surface) will take place on Tuesday, July 4 with paving taking place Wednesday and Thursday. There will be traffic restrictions during this time.
“There will be lane closures for the three days of work. This will involve the closures of either, east and west-bound lanes with a single lane, two-way traffic,” explained Darryl Drohomerski Director of Infrastructure at the Town of Drumheller. “This will allow the work to be completed more quickly and provide a higher degree of safety to work for crews.
“There will be flag people at each end of the work zone and at all intersections, with reduced speed,” added Julia Fielding Economic Development and Communications Officer for the Town of Drumheller. “We encourage people to drive carefully and be aware of the work crews.”
If people have any questions about this work please contact the Infrastructure team at 403 823 1312.
