ALBERTA FOOTHILLS DESK AND DERRICK CLUB MOTTO

“GREATER KNOWLEDGE – GREATER SERVICE”

September 2011

Welcome back everyone; I hope you have all

had a great summer!

For myself, I spent a lot of time this summer

relaxing with family & friends, reading, canning

and learning. I nurtured my soul, my body and

my mind! I look forward to continue nurturing

myself with all the good things happening in our

club.

We are entering another busy time for Desk and

Derrick Clubs. Convention is right around the

corner and St. Louis, MO is offering up many

ways to nurture ourselves. The field trips and

seminars are sure to nurture the mind. The

social events, the chance to visit with and learn

from the members of other clubs will nurture

the soul and probably our waistlines as well!

As soon as we return from convention, we start

the 2012 club election process. In October, we

announce the Board nominations, in November

we hold the elections, and in December the

Installation of the new Board. Now is the

chance for you to nurture yourself. Seriously

consider running for one of Board positions or

working on one of the committees. The

experience will truly nurture your body, mind,

and soul!

The ‘Calendar Girls’ have continued to work

diligently on 60th Anniversary calendar and by

the time you read this our order should be

ready to go! Please contact Sharon McClare if

you have not already placed your order.

In addition, the Venue Committee has been

hard at work researching possible sites for

2012. We will present our findings to the Board

in September and to membership in October.

Our final fundraising event this year will be a

silent auction that will be held at the December

Christmas meeting. Details will be announced

at a later date. If you have any items available

for auction, please contact Linda Topolinsky or

myself.

The Education/Field Trip Committee is currently

working on field trips to Ensign/Opsco and

Mostar Directional, so watch your emails or the

next bulletin for details!

Our Program Committee is also hard at work

lining up speakers for this fall. Please see the

monthly dinner invitation for September’s

Speaker.

The Communications Committee has been busy

gathering articles for this month’s publication of

Mountain Messages. As usual they have done

us proud.

I look forward to seeing all of you at our next

dinner meeting on Wednesday, September 14th.

You are all in for a treat as our Vice President

will be nurturing her body, mind and soul as she

will be acting chairperson for this month!

Please come out and show your support for

Debb!

Question of the Month Congratulations to Theresa Shultz for being the first

to email the correct answer to last July’s question.

“What are four types of mobile, offshore drilling units

(MODU)?” Her answer was: submersibles, jack-ups,

semi-submersibles, and drill ships. Theresa wins a

$5.00 gift card for Tim Horton’s. This month I am

going to change up the process a little and will accept

all correct answers in the first 48 hours after delivery

of the bulletin and make a draw for the prize. So

don’t hold back, send in your answers asap.

Member Changes All member information is for our members’ only

and not to be shared outside of Desk and Derrick!

Send your Membership changes to

Tracy Fillmore, Membership Chairman or

email Tracy at [email protected].

Please refer to the Address Change Form

at the back of this bulletin.

Have you ever written a long letter or document and

discovered that you spelled someone’s name wrong?

Or remember that you spelled a word wrong but

don’t remember where? It can be time consuming to

say the least. But this is where “Find and Replace”

comes in handy.

In Word 2003, you will click on Edit, the either Find or

Replace commands. In Word 2007, in the Home tab,

the icons can be found to the far right upper menu.

You can click on either Find or Replace icons.

Now the “Find” command will only find a word that

you would like to locate in the document, but the real

power is in the “Replace” command. When you click

on the Replace command, you will see a pop up box

similar to the one here. If you want to find the

misspelled name, type it into the “Find what” field.

Then type the correctly spelled name into the

“Replace with” field.

You then have to decide if you want to replace all of

them sight unseen (Replace All button) or do you

want to see each instance (Find Next button) and

then decide at that point if you want to replace it

(Replace button). This tip can be a life saver in some

instances, and it is a good thing to know in any event!

What’s New! Membership Changes, Job Postings, Lost & Found, Cat ch-all! This is your page –

Use it!

Question of the Month ��

What prize did the Alberta Foothills Club win at the Charity

Fashion Show?

The following information is taken directly from the

Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers’

Website. CAPP is the voice of Canada’s upstream oil

and natural gas industry – representing companies

that produce about 90% of Canada’s oil and gas.

For the next few months, I will share statistical and

glossary information gleamed from their website in

an effort to fulfill our organizational purpose of

education.

Glossary of Terms

Development Well: A well drilled within the proved

area of an oil or gas reservoir to the depth of a

stratigraphic horizon known to be productive. If the

well is completed for production, it is classified as an

oil or gas development well. If the well is not

completed for production and is abandoned, it is

classified as a dry development hole.

Service Well: A well drilled or completed for the

purpose of supporting production in an existing field.

Wells of this class are drilled for the following specific

purposes: gas injection (natural gas, propane,

butane), water injection, air injection, steam

injection, salt water disposal, water supply for

injection, observation, etc.

Established Reserves: Those reserves recoverable

under current technology and present and

anticipated economic conditions specifically proved

by drilling, testing or production, plus that judgement

portion of contiguous recoverable reserves that are

interpreted to exist, from geological, geophysical or

similar information, with reasonable certainty.

UPSTREAM DIALOGUE

Submitted by the Editor

I hope all of you enjoyed the pictures from the

Fashion Show that were in the last edition of

Mountain Messages. We thought everyone

would enjoy hearing how all of this came

together and seeing a few more pictures from

this amazing function! Once again, Alberta

Foothills members have proven that when we

pull together, the impossible becomes possible!

What is the Walk-In Closet program?

The Walk-In Closet program provides business

attire for women re-entering the workforce

who are not in a financial position to purchase a

business wardrobe. All clothing, accessories,

etc. are gently used items that have been

donated specifically to the Walk-In Closet.

Women re-entering the workforce are given the

opportunity to go to The Walk-In Closet and

select business appropriate outfits. To find out

more information about the Walk-In Closet and

how to donate your gently used items, please

go to www.makingchangesassociation.ca.

How long has this event been running and who

were the participants?

This is a brand new event and we are proud to

say that this event was conceived by one of

Alberta Foothills members – Deb Rice-

Salomons. When you talk energy…you talk Deb.

She took her idea and made it happen in just 6

short weeks. Her idea was very simple:

challenge a group of women who are employed

in various companies throughout the energy

industry to compete against their peers in

support of other women. And, a winning

formula it was! Five groups came together and

raised approximately $25,000.00. The groups

included employees from 4 energy industry

companies and the Alberta Foothills Desk and

Derrick Club. I am proud to say the Alberta

Foothills group place first in the total amount

that was raised.

What Did Alberta Foothills contribute to

making this event a success?

Our members did

what they do

best...everything!

They sold tickets,

(more than their

allotted

number!),

canvassed family, friends and business

associates to provide business clothing and

accessories to be sold in the boutique, and they

spent hours organizing, cleaning, sewing and

tagging clothing for the event. They sold 50/50

tickets, wrist bands (for the West Jet draw) and

hosted the “Heads or Tails” game that

determined the winner, donated prizes for the

“Guess How Many”

draw and to add

even more

excitement,

auctioned off “A

Day at the

Stampede

Chuckwagon Races”

with Cliff

Cunningham who is

a professional

Chuckwagon driver.

They modelled some of the business attire that

had been donated; choreographed the music

and wrote their own dialogue for the models to

strut their stuff. Our models rocked the catwalk

with style, grace and attitude. All the bling they

wore was on loan from Birks Jewelers!

Members came up with everything necessary to

make our “boutique” stand out. From displays,

to backdrops and lighting, to having our “staff”

members dress in Top Hats with the gold

ribbons and gold scarves (all made by our

members Sue Dennis and Joanne Riggall).

Finally, additional members attended the event

to show their support of our club and the event.

EMPOWERING WOMEN WITH ENERGY

Charity Fashion Show In Support of Making Changes – Walk-In Closet

Submitted by Lenore Summers

Who from Alberta Foothills participated?

Let’s start with the Event Founder, Deb Rice-

Salomons – 6 weeks start to finish. WOW! Lucy

Mulgrew and Kathi DesChene headed up our

planning team for the Club, even though they

were both preparing for this year’s Energy

Excursion to the British Isles (yes – they were on

the organizing committee for that as well and

were leaving 1 week after the Fashion Show!).

Joanne Riggall and Lorna Myers organized the

clothing donations and the boutique. They

provided the backdrops and lighting, clothing

racks, decorations, display cases and signage

(donated by BD Media), and managed the

boutique sales. They solicited prizes for the

fundraisers, sewed, organized the models and

their outfits, and they took care of all the little

details.

The fashion models included: Brigitte Shaw,

Brenda Wyton, Theresa Schultz, Loreena

Hopkins, Wendy Gibson, Kathy Bishop, Sandy

Fitzpatrick, Kim Brauer, Cori Hnatowich, Amber

Croswell, Angela Tyler, Lorna Myers, Lucy

Mulgrew, Roseline Cyr, Brian Toth (Rockwell

Services), and Candace and Sue. Kim Brauer

and Cori Hnatowich also designed the shopping

bag for the competition and received

‘honourable mention’ for their efforts. Debb

Porath managed the audio for our group and

the whole event

Our additional boutique staff, ticket sellers, set

up and take down crews, and general

supporters included: Lenore Summers, Kim

Boyes, Linda Topolinsky, Sharon McClare,

Marilyn Carter (Paparazzi), Loreen Jensen,

Sharon Grocutt, Tracy Fillmore, and Ronda

Cornell, .

I sincerely hope that I have not missed anyone!

We have a lot to be proud of in this club.

Congratulations to all of you who participated!

September 2011

Dear Members,

It’s September already. Summer is winding down. I’m looking forward to much cooler temperatures. Many of you are probably in full swing getting the children ready for school, so watch out for school zones.

If you recall, a special committee was assigned at the Budget and Planning Meeting to investigate the use of Social Networking Media (Facebook, Twitter, etc.). The committee has compiled a report which was sent to all Club Presidents to discuss with you and get feedback. The report is also available to you on the ADDC web site under the August 20th mailing information. The use of Social Networking Media will be discussed further at Convention during the Open Forum session on Friday, September 23rd.

I’m sure you’ve heard everyone reminding you of the upcoming Convention. The Region II Clubs of Bay Area, Heartland, Little Egypt, and Olney are putting the final touches on all the activities. If you haven’t registered yet, now is the time to get those forms filled out and sent in. For those of you planning to attend the convention, be sure to bring with you copies of the Rules of Convention, Convention Procedures, Special Parliamentary Hints, Candidate Information for Association Offices, and a current copy of ADDC Bylaws and Standing Rules. These are available on the ADDC Website and will not be furnished at convention.

As you read this, you’ll either be heading off to St. Louis or just returning. I know the 60th Annual ADDC Convention will be a wonderful experience for all those in attendance and provide many memories for a long time to come. So don’t forget to save those photos and other items for everyone’s scrapbook. This time next month, I will happily be able to introduce your 2012 ADDC

Officers and Regional Directors.

Have you considered your role for the future of your club? Your club needs you to step forward as a member of the Board. If you do not feel ready to serve as an officer, volunteer for a committee – as a chairman or as a member. Discover your talents, increase your knowledge, and gain confidence as you learn about Desk and Derrick. I encourage each of you to get involved in your local club, Region, or on the Association level. What are you waiting for? The Gateway to Growth and Opportunity is still open!

Until next month…

Letter No. 9 September 2011 Where has the year gone? It just seems like a couple months ago I was just an observer during the meetings at Convention in Houston. By time you read this we will be getting ready to attend our 60th Annual Convention in St. Louis.

Speaking of getting ready, my husband, Frank, and I just returned from a motorcycle trip to the “Sturgis Bike Rally” in the Black Hills of Sturgis, South Dakota. Before leaving for our adventure there were many things to consider and plan for; what and how to pack whether it be strapped to the bikes or in the trailer Frank pulls behind his Electra Glide. Then there’s the planning of which route to take, if there’s road construction or bad weather to avoid; being flexible and knowing your limitations are key to making a safe and enjoyable trip.

The same can be applied as a member of your club and the Association. What are your goals? What do you want to gain from your membership now and in the future? Have you made plans to reach these goals? Do you need help in achieving them? Would a long term member assist you as a mentor help?

Once you have answered these questions, then it’s just a matter of putting it into a plan and then take steps to work your plan. Commitment to your plan, being flexible, knowing your limitations but still being able to step out of your comfort zone is the key to achieving your goals. There are many Desk and Derrick members ready and willing to assist, you just need to ask for their help.

I’m looking forward to seeing many Region VII members attend Convention, some of you I just spent time with at Regional and others I hope to catch up on some visiting along with members from all Regions at St. Louis.

Not only will we be reuniting old friendships and creating new ones; it’s also time to conduct Association business. Delegates and Alternates please come prepared totake part and speak for your Club. Geraldine “Jerry” Rasmussen will be attending pre-convention meetings as an observer to gear up for her duties as 2012 Region VII Director; I’m very excited for her and I know she’ll represent Region VII fantastically being well informed, organized and ready to be your voice to the Board.

I look forward to seeing you in St. Louis!

Until then…………..keep the shiny side up!

Barb

Two members of the special committee to review social

media attended a Social Media Marketing seminar. The

special committee members have great optimism that it

can be very useful for the ADDC.

First, what is social media? Social media is the

interaction between individuals through web based

platforms. These interactions are useful to build

relationships, promote messages, and provide

information.

How is social media potentially beneficial to the ADDC?

Social media is the future of marketing. It takes the

power of word of mouth and multiplies it to the nth

degree. Why is this valuable? The ADDC has a vital

mission and message. We are here to promote the

energy industry and energy education to our

membership, our industry, and to the public we serve.

Possibly at no other time in history has this mission

been more vital. We feel that social media platforms

can help us achieve some of our goals.

Social media can be useful to promote our message to

our membership, from meeting dates/times, to field

trip information, and to education, social media

platforms can get the message in front of people and

invites them to interact. The more people interact, the

more likely they will be to spread the message.

Initially, we would suggest using these platforms:

1. Facebook

2. Twitter

3. LinkedIn

4. YouTube

There may be others that are useful, but these are well

known and respected.

Facebook – Facebook is the largest social media

platform. It is a very user friendly platform that has

good features. The primary benefit is it spurs

conversation. Members can ask questions and can

receive an answer that the whole group can benefit

from. Another benefit of Facebook is it offers group

pages. Each club could have a group page that

members can join. Only people added by the

administrator of the group would see the content that it

contains. Group pages are for communities that want

to communicate internally and privately; these can be

useful for regions or the Association in general.

Twitter – Twitter is a micro blogging platform. What

does that mean? It is a platform for spreading a

message to your followers. Again, this could report

meeting dates/times, field trip info, and/or educational

tidbits. Items that club leadership wants the group at

large to know can be blasted out quickly for members

to see. These tweets would need to be sent out by

approval of the club board, but they could be effective

in sharing information.

LinkedIn – LinkedIn is a social media platform for

professional networking. This could be a great way to

start bringing members together. LinkedIn offers group

pages where content could be delivered to members

like club news, industry articles, etc. It would also be a

good avenue for Desk and Derrick members to link up

with other oil, gas, and energy professionals to invite

them to club meetings and to join our organization.

YouTube – YouTube is a great tool for educating. There

are countless training videos on YouTube, as well as

other useful videos. Clubs could shoot their own

educational videos and have them available to be seen.

There are a lot of neat things that could be done with

this platform. Many people think it is just a place for

silly videos, but it is so much more.

With all of these platforms there would need to be

guidelines for usage determined by the ADDC Board.

These would set a standard for how we conduct

business in these media and would address safety of

personal and club/Association information. This should

not be hard to address as many of the companies we

represent already have a disclaimer statement and we

would have a ready-made template.

We are standing on the edge of a very positive

opportunity and the members of the special committee

support the use of social media within the Association

and clubs.

Suggested disclaimer: This is your place to exchange

information, tips and share ideas. Five things to keep in

mind:

• This is a public site

• Participation in this community is completely

• Be respectful, even if you disagree….personal

attacks will not be tolerated

• Direct marketing is prohibited

At this time, we suggest that individual Desk and Derrick

clubs be permitted to use these four platforms, in

accordance w/ the statement/disclaimer. The clubs will

be responsible for monitoring the content and use of

the media but any member who finds unprofessional

behavior can bring it to the attention of the ADDC Board

Linda Clark ADDC Secretary

August 23, 2011 To All Club Presidents: The 60th Annual ADDC Convention will be held in St. Louis, Missouri, from September 21-25, 2011. All clubs are urged to send a Delegate and an Alternate to attend Convention and act on behalf of the club during business sessions On Friday, September 23rd and Saturday, September 24th between 7:15am – 7:45am, all Delegates and Alternates attending Convention are required to check in with their respective Regional Representative at the Credentials table at least thirty (30) minutes prior to each business session. The table will be located just inside the meeting room. Delegates and Alternates will then be asked to produce a copy of their completed credentials form and sign a signature sheet. To eliminate confusion, Delegates and Alternates are requested to sign in AT THE SAME TIME. Beginning with the first business session, each Delegate will be issued a numbered badge to wear during all business sessions. This badge will be the delegate's responsibility and must be retained and worn until the final business session on Saturday, at which time it should be returned to the proper Credentials Committee Representative. If you have additional questions, please feel free to call or email me at any time. The Regional Representatives and I are looking forward to this year's Convention and with your assistance, the check-in process will be smooth and easy. Sincerely, Kathy Deshasier
