Did you know -
- Town of Killam Public Works
Superintendent Dean Berrecloth is currently serving as President of
Alberta Public Works Association.
- Town of Killam Director of
Community Services Char Jackson is currently serving as Secretary of
Alberta Recreation & Parks Association.
- Town of Killam Fire Chief
Joe Knievel, EMT, spent several years acting as an Exam Proctor for the
Alberta College of Paramedics.
The people noted above are only a few
examples of Killam contributing & interacting on a regional or larger stage.
There is an understanding that our municipality cannot be insular; we are part of a broader community that includes Flagstaff, Alberta, Canada & beyond.
My Council colleagues, as well as Chief Operating Officer Kim Borgel & others, all participate in committee work that is
regional in nature, both within the Flagstaff community and on a broader scale. It's an opportunity to serve on a larger stage, and the benefits coming back to us in terms of networking & learning opportunities almost always outweighs the effort.
Communities that only look inward cannot sustain themselves in the long term. Our community is fortunate to understand this, and it will serve us well going forward.
Sincerely,
Bud James
