Capt Sheri Muggaberg, Capt Steve Hurlbut, their daughter Avery and their son Taylor enjoyed meeting people at the 4 Wing
Welcome last Thursday.
Jeff Gaye
New arrivals to CFB Cold
Lake were given a hearty
welcome last Thursday.
The Wing Welcome event
began with a briefing in the 4
Wing Theatre. Attendance was
mandatory for newly-arrived
military personnel, and family
members were also invited.
4 Wing Commander Col
Paul Doyle gave a background
on the base’s history and its
operational importance. He
said that military members
and their families form about a
third of Cold Lake’s population
and are an important part of
the community.
“Whether it’s in town or on
the base, you’ll see military
people taking an active role in
the community,” he said, and
this is key to enjoying a posting
here. “There’s lots to do in
Cold Lake. I encourage you to
get out and be active.”
Col Doyle also spoke of
the professional opportunities
of working on an operational
base, including the likelihood
of deployment. “I call it ‘Op
Next,’” he said. “Our next
operation is not a question of if,
but of when.”
Cold Lake Mayor Craig
Copeland extended a welcome
on behalf of the city. He spoke
of his own origins in New York
City and his youth in Toronto,
and said that even with his
urban roots he is happy to live
in Cold Lake.
Copeland gave a “wartsand-all” assessment of Cold
Lake, advising members of
the challenges as well as the
advantages of living here. In
particular, he said there is
a shortage of family doctors,
and urged members and their
families to take advantage of
the Primary Care Network’s
Kingsway Clinic located in the
Canex mall.
Command teams from
units on base introduced
themselves and explained their
respective units’ roles.
After the briefing, the
newcomers were invited to
tour display tables for the
various organizations that
provide services to the military
community. A barbecue supper
followed, with birthday cakes
marking the 25th anniversary
of Military Family Services
and the 20th anniversary of
Canadian Forces Morale and
Welfare Services.
The 4 Wing Pipes and
Drums and the 4 Wing Band
provided entertainment.
4 Wing MFRC held its
annual general meeting after
supper, while the 4 Wing Movie
Club offered a free movie to
entertain the children.

Eat Your Cutlery!
TAMMy BuCHAnAn,
HeALTH PrOMOTiOn
SPeCiALiST
We all strive to eat
a balanced diet with
the required fruits and
veggies, whole grains,
fish or meat alternatives,
and low-fat milk products.
So, where does edible
food packaging and
edible cutlery fit in?
Could it be a dietary win
and an environmental
win?
I was listening to
the radio recently and
heard some unique ideas
coming down the pipe.
A biodegradable milk
protein film is being
researched to be used for
packaging in the United
States. This product
would be edible, or if you
did throw it away it would
not take 450 years to
decompose like a plastic
bottle.
Its structure is similar
to plastic wrap but would
keep the product it is
protecting fresher, as
it blocks out oxygen
better than regular wrap.
Because it is made of a
milk product, consumers
who can safely eat dairy
will also be able to eat the
packaging.
The products they
are currently testing do
not have any flavor, but
that could change, like
the edible cutlery now
available in India. You
can choose from plain,
spicy, or a sweet spoon
to complement the dish
you are eating! These
baked spoons are made
of rice, wheat flour,
and millet. Currently,
the
manufacturer
is
looking at expanding
into edible forks and
chopsticks.
With all innovative
ideas there are positive
and negative impacts. A
win for the environment
is that edible packaging
and
cutlery
reduces
waste in our landfills.

Le sondage du SBMFC fait une différence
THE COURIER
Vous pouvez avoir une incidence
directe sur la qualité de vie à Cold Lake
en participant à l’évaluation annuelle
des besoins de la communauté.
Le sondage annuel est affiché sur
www.cfmws.com/CNA.
L’information recueillie grâce au
sondage sert au Programme de soutien
du personnel (PSP) et au Centre
de ressources pour les familles des
militaires (CRFM) pour savoir comment
améliorer les services qu’ils offrent aux
militaires et à leur famille.
La directrice générale du CRFM
de la 4e Escadre, Elizabeth Morris,
déclare que l’évaluation des besoins
de la communauté joue un grand rôle
dans les prises de décision du conseil
d’administration du CRFM.
« Nous sommes ici pour répondre
aux besoins de la communauté
militaire, dit-elle. Si nos programmes
ne répondent pas à leurs besoins, nous
échouons à notre mission. »
« Nous sommes toujours en quête
de rétroactions pour nous assurer que
nos programmes correspondent aux
besoins de la communauté. L’évaluation
des besoins de la communauté est un
outil très important pour nous. »
Parmi les programmes offerts par
le CRFM, mentionnons le soutien pour
le déploiement et la séparation, des
services de garde d’enfants, des cours
sur les compétences de vie et du travail
social.
Le commandant de la 4e Escadre, le
Col Paul Doyle, explique que l’évaluation
des besoins de la communauté procure
au CRFM et au PSP des données
concrètes pour guider leurs décisions.
« Grâce aux évaluations des besoins
de la communauté antérieurs, nos
partenaires des CRFM et des PSP offrent
maintenant à l’équipe de la 4e Escadre
des dizaines de programmes et de
services pratiques, notamment un plus
grand accès à des installations gratuites,
divers cours de développement des
compétences de vie, des ateliers d’intérêt
particulier et différentes possibilités de
voyage d’agrément », affirme-t-il.
« J’encourage tous les militaires et
leur famille à participer à ce sondage
pour aider à faire progresser les
programmes du PSP et du CRFM. »
Le sondage est ouvert jusqu’au 23
septembre.
