The southern Alberta community of Picture Butte is coming together to raise funds to rebuild a memorial in honour of a Mountie who was killed in the line of duty nearly 13 years ago.
Const. Chelsey West Robinson was looking for an impaired driver when her cruiser was broadsided by a semi-trailer west of Edmonton on Highway 16 in June 2010.
"She was a camper there for many years and then she was a counsellor for four years," said Shelley West, Chelsey's mother. Almost six years later, the West family and friends are hoping to rebuild the camp in honour of Chelsey. "So, to be able to do this in her name, it's a pretty big deal for the whole community, for the camp and for southern Alberta, really."
