The town is asking for public input on Drumheller’s brand as the “Dinosaur Capital of the World’ and is asking people to complete an online survey.
Questions will ask if people think the brand is reflective of Drumheller and what they would like to see for branding in the future.
The survey takes five minutes to complete and is available on the town’s website here. Responses are voluntary and confidential.
The survey is available until August 11.
A pilot walked away from a crash near the Hanna Airport Tuesday afternoon, July 30.
Hanna RCMP has worked with the Transportation Safety Board of Canada and the Department of National Defence to investigate a plane crash.
On July 30 at approximately 1:27 a.m., the RCMP responded with Hanna EMS and Hanna Fire Department to a report that a small airplane crashed at the Hanna Airport.
The male pilot of the plane was transported to the local hospital with non life threatening injuries and was later released.
There was only one occupant in the plane at the time of the crash.
The Hanna Herald reports the pilot was travelling from Calgary to Medicine Hat and decided to make a stop in Hanna when he went down in the 1982 Cessna.
It was determined the cause of the crash to be non criminal and the scene was cleared. The plane is approximately 50 metres from the runway and will be removed today.
The Drumheller Institution was put on lockdown last week and visits were suspended after some inmates showed symptoms associated with norovirus.
Corrections Canada issued a release on Tuesday saying the lockdown is a preliminary measure and they are working with health authorities.
Noroviruses are a group of viruses that cause gastroenteritis, an illness that usually includes diarrhea and/or vomiting.
