Greek police have arrested a 50-year-old Taber man facing multiple sexual assault charges. Jorden VanVoorthuizen, a former Taber resident who has been living abroad, was arrested in Messinia, Greece last week and is awaiting extradition back to Canada to face two counts of sexual assault and two counts of sexual interference. The charges were laid May 1, 2011 after a year-long investigation by Taber police. They stem from incidents that allegedly occurred over seven years in Taber, from 1995 to 2001, involving victims who were under 16 at the time. The two victims, who no longer live in Taber, reported the incidents to police years after the accused had moved to Greece.

The whistle stop cabinet tour stopped in Taber last Tuesday Tuesday as Minister of Finance Ron Liepert, and Minister of Culture and Community Services Heather Klimchuk listened to many concerns of the 30 people on hand among municipal, education, irrigation district representatives and members at large.
While questions were diverse from the gallery that featured representatives as far away as Milk River, Cardston, and Raymond, the cabinet tour theme of Health Care, Human Services, Education and Finance seemed to have education as one of the main topics that dominated discussion.

Nearly 40 concerned citizens from various provincial government agencies, emergency services and municipal bodies lined Municipal District of Taber council chambers, which served as a command centre for an emergency disaster simulation exercise entitled, Sudden Impact.

It will be memories that last a lifetime for local bobsleder Clay Sparks.
The Taberite competed in the Junior Winter Olympics in Austria late last month representing Canada and finished in eighth with his combined time with his driver in boy’s bobsled at 1:50.54.
“The competition was pretty tight. Between where we were and first place, it wasn’t much of a difference,” said Sparks.
Italy would end up in first with a time of 1:49.14 in its gold-medal runs, host Austria would take silver at 1:49.23 and Monaco would take the bronze at 1:49.31.
