Detailed design planning is underway for a $26-million twin arena facility in West Lethbridge.
The City of Lethbridge is reviewing design proposals for a 62,000-square-foot centre with two adjoining NHL-sized ice surfaces to serve as a convenient hub for tournaments and other skating competitions. Two potential sites have been identified, but city officials are remaining tight-lipped about specific locations while land negotiations are underway.

Premier Ed Stelmach has recruited some high-profile talent in hopes of ensuring Alberta’s long-term prosperity.
Former Bank of Canada governor David Dodge, former Liberal deputy prime minister Anne McLellan and Liberal-turned-Tory David Emerson — until recently, the nation’s minister of foreign affairs — are among 12 members of the Premier’s Council on Economic Strategy, announced Thursday.
Calgary industrialists James Gray and Bob Brawn and the province’s former science and technology minister, Lorne Taylor of Medicine Hat, are the other well-known Albertans in the group, which also includes several British academics from Oxford.

Two people died on southern Alberta highways within the last 48 hours.
In the first instance, a 42-year-old southern Alberta man died in a head-on collision early Tuesday near Claresholm.
Investigators with Claresholm RCMP believe the unnamed man died on impact when his westbound Ford pickup crossed the centre line into the path of an oncoming semi trailer. The collision occurred at around 2:30 a.m. along Highway 520 about 10 kilometres east of Claresholm.
“There was no evidence to suggest alcohol was a factor, but we won’t know until a post-mortem is completed,” said Sgt. Robin Alexander of Claresholm RCMP.

Lyle Scott Madge was a man who grabbed life by the lapels and kissed it full on the mouth.
His mother, Jill Capewell, of Shaughnessy, told The Herald Monday her eldest child was a rambunctious boy who “liked to drive fast,” and whose heart was as big as his attitude. He died early Saturday after being stabbed during an altercation in Magrath in which another man was injured. Two 18-year-olds from Magrath have been charged and an RCMP investigation continues.
