Alarmed at bicycle collision statistics which show seven times the collision rate from 2007 to 2011 (numbers that rose every single year), Constable Chad Hanlon and other law enforcement personnel at Camrose Police Service have brainstormed a novel solution to the big problem.

Positive Tickets has been created. CPS officers will now specifically be watching for young riders who are riding safely and legally. Positive tickets, along with a free merchandise voucher provided courtesy of a Camrose business, will be issued for riders wearing their helmets, using hand signals and riding defensively. In addition, plans are in the works for a Youth Bike Safety Course to be implemented at Camrose Schools. The Positive Ticket Program will be extended to reward other law-abiding youth. Police officers will be keeping eyes peeled for young people who are playing or staying safe or acting as community role models. Tickets and vouchers will be issued to young people “caught” doing things such as using crosswalks and disposing of litter in waste receptacles.

Grass fire, collision close Highway 13 By Brad Field

At approximately 12:15 p.m. on Sunday, May 13, a fire call was made to the Camrose Fire Department to respond to a grass fire on Highway 13, east of Camrose. While the fire was consuming the grass, a late model Chrysler was slowing down to drive

through the thick smoke and was rear ended by a following car, which created more havoc on the highway. The fire crews and Camrose RCMP shut down the highway and started to re-route traffic around the fire and collision. Fire crews quickly put out the fire in the ditch before it reached

a farmer's field. There were no serious injuries caused by the smoke or the fire. The fire department would like to remind everyone that the ground is quite dry and not to discard anything that may cause a fire. If you are driving through an area that has a fire, slow down.

The Battle River Shock midget football team recorded its third straight shutout on May 5 against the Edmonton Seahawks in the Capital District Minor Football League. Although the Seahawks advanced the ball, they weren’t able to complete the job. The final score ended at 33-0. On May 1, the Shock defensive machine played aggressively, intercepting multiple passes and moving the ball into scoring position. The final score was 60-0 against the Edmonton Chargers. Offensive highlights from the Chargers match-up included a 75-yard punt return touchdown by Brady Podloski. Other touchdowns came from Blake Draper

with two, Jason Rivot with two, Skylar Rambeau, Morgan Loshney, and Joel Bishop each with one.

Evraz lockout enters second week

Library wins contest By Dan Jensen

Evraz Camrose Works employees have been picketing around the clock. By Murray Green

Evraz Camrose Works employees are entering their second week of a work stoppage. After being served a 72-hour lockout notice from the pipe company on May 3, employees began picketing around the clock in front of Evraz Camrose Works at 9 a.m. on May 5. The mill is still operating with manpower from supervisors, lab staff and non-union employees. "Despite a recent collective agreement with a sister plant, the company continues to refuse to offer a fair and equitable agreement for our members," said CAW national representative Todd Romanow. At an

emergency meeting on May 4 the membership unanimously endorsed the bargaining committees' recommendation not to accept the company's last offer. Romanow said the CAW bargaining committee remains determined to negotiate an agreement and still urges the company to return to the bargaining table. The CAW contract with Evraz expired on February 1, 2012, and negotiations have been ongoing since November 2011. Evraz manufactures tubular goods and line pipe for the oil and natural gas industries. "Evraz stands ready to continue good faith bargaining with our primary goal to reach

an agreement that will help ensure the job security of Evraz employees. Evraz has the appropriate measures in place to continue operations at its Camrose facility and serve its customers," said Evraz Camrose manager Mike Howard. CAW Local 551 represents a bargaining unit of 105 workers at Evraz Camrose Works in Camrose including trades persons, machine operators and labourers. Major outstanding bargaining concerns include wages, benefits, pension contributions, and job security clauses. Few economic or language issues have been settled to date, with the company offering no general wage increases over a three-year contract.

Evraz operates two pipe mills in Camrose. One is an electric-resistance-weld (ERW) mill that manufactures pipe and casing up to 16 inches in diameter. This pipe is used primarily in drilling and transporting of oil and gas from the well head to larger transmission lines. It is also used to distribute natural gas once it arrives in the marketplace. The second mill is a UOE double-submerged, arc-welded (DSAW) mill that produces large-diameter pipe used for larger transmissions lines. Both of these mills utilize the highest quality steel plate and coils to produce a broad range of steel pipe required in a broad range of applications.

Olson takes on new appointment By Dan Jensen

It didn't take long for Verlyn Olson to start taking appointments as the new minister of Alberta Agriculture and Rural Development. "My calendar is starting to fill up," said Olson last week. "It's going to get very busy very quickly." Olson was caught by surprise when Premier Redford called him to ask that he take on the new portfolio after serving just a bit over a year as the Justice Minister. "It is not something I had been anticipating." Olson expects it will take a few days to get up to speed on all of his responsibilities. "My immediate plan â&#x20AC;&#x201C; in the short term â&#x20AC;&#x201C; is to just be a sponge and absorb as much information as I can," he said. "Once I am briefed extensively by my department I can start chatting with the stakeholders and introducing myself." Olson knows the premier wants to see a heightened profile for agriculture because of its importance to the provincial economy and to the life of every Albertan.

Verlyn Olson

"I don't have my mandate letter from her yet," he said, "but when I do I will have more specifics. In a general sense, though, I know my job is to support agriculture and agribusiness and be an advocate." Olson has always been passionate about agriculture and rural development. "Although I grew up in town my family roots are definitely agricultural. My parents farmed,

my grandparents farmed and all of my extended family, pretty much, were farmers. In 30 years of law practice a very big percentage of my clients were in agriculture." While he welcomes the new portfolio as a chance to do something different, Olson knows it will be difficult to "flip the switch" and start thinking about agriculture-related issues instead of things like legal aid, maintenance enforcement and safe communities. "I was honoured to be the Justice Minister and I was in the middle of a number of initiatives that I would have been happy to keep working on," he said, "but sometimes, no matter what portfolio you are in, you get preoccupied with your own duties and the rest of world kind of goes on around you. It is going to take me a little while to reset. I am happy the premier had the confidence in me to give me this opportunity, and am really looking forward to meeting with all the stakeholders. I am going to learn as quickly as I can, I am going to listen a lot and I am going to try and be a good advocate for Alberta agriculture."

Olson has a close relationship with several other members of the new Alberta cabinet, including Jeff Johnson (son of former Wetaskiwin-Camrose MLA LeRoy Johnson), who was appointed the new minister of Alberta Education, and Doug Griffiths, MLA for Battle RiverWainwright, who retained his position as Minister of Municipal Affairs. "Jeff and Doug have lots of energy and many good ideas. They help to make up a cabinet that is very diverse." Jonathan Denis, MLA from Calgary-Acadia, is the new Minister of Justice and Solicitor General. He has also been given the title of Deputy House Leader. Olson was elected to his first term as a Member of the Legislative Assembly for Wetaskiwin-Camrose on March 3, 2008. Prior to serving as a Member of the Legislative Assembly of Alberta, he was a partner with the law firm Andreassen Olson Borth, where his practice focused primarily on real estate, wills, estates and counselling small businesses, assisting farmers, families, seniors and dependent adults.

A Camrose Public Library proposal to produce t-shirts that proclaim the importance of intellectual freedom has been named the winner of the Library Association of Alberta's 2012 Freedom to Read Week Contest. The T-shirts will be affixed with eight-inch square QR code transfers, which will enable those with devices that read QR codes (smartphones) to scan them and link to a variety of different intellectual freedom websites, including the Canadian Library Association's position statement on intellectual freedom, Wikipedia's intellectual freedom definition, freedomtoread.ca's "When the Censor Comes," and the Challenged Books and Magazines list, 2011. Camrose Public Library was one of hundreds of libraries across the province that took part in the contest. "It was a contest that was open to every university, college, school and public library in Alberta," said Camrose Public Library director Deb Cryderman, who accepted a cheque for $300 at the Alberta Library Conference annual general meeting in Jasper in April. "Not every library entered (there are 314 public libraries across Alberta), but it was a significant number." The library celebrated Freedom to Read Week Feb. 26 to Mar. 3 by having lunchtime and evening readings of banned books and by setting up a display featuring a garbage can filled with banned books and birds flying with "freed" words. Cryderman sees the Freedom to Read Week celebration as the most important of the year. She notes that Camrose Public Library's collection development policy is based on the Canadian Library Association's statement on intellectual freedom and that anyone who objects to what is included in the collection may make a submission in writing. Cryderman became aware of the importance of the freedom to read as a Grade 12 student when a teacher took away the book she was reading, The Thornbirds. "I learned then that nobody has the right to tell another person what he or she cannot read," she said. "If there was something I was reading that challenged my way of thinking it was a great opportunity for me to talk about it with someone." The International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions' (IFLA) Statement on Libraries and Intellectual Freedom calls upon libraries and library staff to "adhere to the principles of intellectual freedom, uninhibited access to information and freedom of expression and to recognize the privacy of library user."

City County Prayer Breakfast set for May 23 By Dan Jensen

Mayor Marshall Chalmers and Reeve Don Gregorwich are inviting the community to a Camrose City and County Prayer Breakfast at the Norsemen Inn May 23. "It's going to be an opportunity for us to celebrate," said Chalmers. The breakfast will be building on the success of the first Mayor's Prayer Breakfast a year ago. "I kind of declared at that one that this would be an annual event," said Chalmers. "I think we exceeded 120 people, which is where other communities are at with their attendance." Camrose County was invited to partner with the City early in the 2012 prayer breakfast planning process.

"When we started our initial discussions in regards to putting this one together we asked why we were not inviting our friends in the County to join us as a partner," said Chalmers. "They were more than willing to jump on board." Gregorwich said the County is happy to be working with the Camrose Ministerial Association and the City of Camrose. "I think the value of a prayer breakfast like this is that it brings together people who share a common belief. It is wonderful to see people coming together over a positive issue and not something that is causing acrimony or concern." Gregorwich believes the prayer breakfast will strength-

en the community, collectively and individually. "Wherever we live, whether it be in the city, the county, the villages or the counties next door, we really are all one community." The first prayer breakfast came out of a discussion Chalmers had with the Camrose Ministerial Association. He had seen other communities holding prayer breakfasts and wondered why Camrose wasn't doing the same. "When we had a little chat we discovered there was just really no reason why we couldn't (do this)," said Chalmers. "The Ministerial Association jumped on board, and really did all the heavy lifting, putting it all together." The local prayer breakfast

is patterned after the national prayer breakfast movement, started over 30 years ago, in which civic leaders, business persons and members of the general public are invited to gather for a time of quiet reflection and prayer, and to nurture the spiritual core of their work. "Ottawa holds a national prayer breakfast, and Washington holds a national prayer breakfast," said Rev. Brian Krushel, member of the Camrose Ministerial Association and chair of the association's prayer breakfast planning committee. "It crosses all party lines." The prayer breakfast will feature entertainment by SEISMIC, the Camrose Church of God children's choir, under the direction of Carolyn Hartman, as well as a presentation by

Ron and Vivianne Grue, who will share about their faith journey and the importance of prayer in their lives. The goal is to have everything wrapped up by 9:00 so that those who need to can get on with their regular work day. "We decided to hold it mid week because usually by the weekends in mid to late May you can lose people who want to go to the lake or go camping," said Krushel. Tickets for the Camrose City and County Prayer Breakfast may be obtained from City Hall, Camrose County, Wisemen's Way Bookstore, members of the Camrose Ministerial Association, and most local church offices. More information is available by calling 780-678-3027 or 780672-3461.

McHappy Day receives good support

PEN POINTS by Berdie Fowler

Let's improve the statistics! It is baffling. What drives drivers to drive unsafely, putting their own lives and those of others at risk? All vehicle operators know the rules of the road – to know them is a requirement before being granted a licence to drive. With the proliferation of roadway safety education and information in the public domain, it would be impossible to not know that speed kills and increases the risk of serious, life-long injury, and that alcohol and drugs (including some prescribed medicines) and fatigue cause impairment, that cell phones are a distraction, that seat belts and child restraints save lives. In the last few years, much publicity has focused on the high fatality rate on Highway 63 from Fort McMurray to Edmonton. Last week, while the gory news of seven being killed in a single collision was still fresh in our minds, 663 drivers on Highway 63 were ticketed, during a mere four-day period, for infractions of roadway laws. Of the infractions, 553 were for speeding with some drivers exceeding the limit by as much as 50 kilometres per hour. It is hard to imagine such reckless abandon of good judgment in the face of well-known possible consequences. Other hazardous violations included dangerous driving, alcohol related offences, seat belt and child restraint infractions, driving while suspended, and having no insurance. In light of such news, no wonder Supt. James Stiles, of the Alberta traffic sheriffs, commented that people are still driving badly and that is troubling. “We need people to slow down and drive safely,” he said, adding that “It is a challenge.” Chief Supt. of RCMP’s K Division, Rick Taylor, said, “It is not about whether we have enough resources or whether highways should be twinned. The problem is that drivers are making bad decisions.” Such comments are consistent among people who use Highway 63 frequently. We shouldn’t need sheriffs whose job it is to enforce obedience of highway safety rules that are clearly designed to prevent us from injury and/or death. One would think all drivers would voluntarily comply. Jurisdictions that have reduced speed limits have provided convincing evidence that lower speed limits result in fewer collisions, less severe injury and a reduction in the number of fatalities. People who have done the research tell us that there are no traffic accidents; that all collisions are the result of poor judgment and all are preventable. This is a message that too many drivers don’t get. Instead of reducing speed they tend to increase their vigilance in trying to avoid being nabbed for infractions. A trip is much more pleasant when one simply observes the safety rules and drives defensively. In Alberta, the upcoming May holiday weekend traditionally records one of the highest number of serious injuries and fatalities on our roadways and lakes. May each of us be an influence in making our highways safe and travel a pleasant experience! Let’s improve the statistics!

Special Olympics volunteers at the Camrose McDonald's Restaurant on McHappy Day included (left to right) Graham Wideman, Carol Wideman, Colin Atkinson and Ginger Matthews. By Dan Jensen

Volunteers in Camrose and Wetaskiwin donned aprons and went to work serving hungry customers at McDonald's on McHappy Day May 2. The restaurant donated one dollar from every Big Mac, McHappy Meal and any size hot McCafe beverage sold during the day to Ronald McDonald House Northern Alberta and the Camrose/Wetaskiwin Special Olympics programs. "We were able to raise $11,300 at the Camrose and Wetaskiwin stores," said Richard Martins, McDonald's operations supervisor for the Camrose-Wetaskiwin market. Camrose and area residents have always been strong supporters of the McHappy Day fundraiser, and this year was no exception. "It is a very satisfying feeling to see how this community gets behind a great cause like this," said DJ Sharma, owner/operator of the Camrose-Wetaskiwin McDonald's restaurants. "We know we can count on the community for support." McDonald's also assisted the charities by collecting donations from customers for the chance to write and display messages on paper running shoes.

McDonald's chooses the charities with which it agrees to work on McHappy Day from all the applications it receives during the course of the year. The main local partner in 2011 was Ecole Sifton School. "We ask them to submit a letter explaining why they should be chosen," said Sharma. "We felt that with this being an Olympic year it would be wise to do something with an organization that has Olympics in its name." Special Olympics program coaches, athletes and helpers accounted for a good number of the volunteer workers who helped take and fill orders. The program has about 60 to 70 athletes from local and outlying areas who come to Camrose on a regular basis for bowling, swimming and softball. The bowling team practices weekly from September to May with one or two meets throughout the season, the swimming team practices weekly from October to April, and the softball team meets for a weekly practice from June to September and participates in two tournaments a year. Potential future programs include a drop-in/rec night, curling and floor hockey. Camrose Special Olym-

pics will use the proceeds from McHappy Day to fund travel costs associated with going to tournaments and to purchase equipment. "This is the first time, to my knowledge, that we have been the main charity for McHappy Day, so it really is an exciting day for us," said Camrose Special Olympics board chair Colin Atkinson. "We feel fortunate that we were chosen." Ronald McDonald House Northern Alberta is a compassionate, safe and affordable home away from home for outof-town families whose children are receiving treatment in a local Edmonton hospital. The purpose of Ronald McDonald House is to keep families together and provide a supportive environment while the family member is being treated for his or her illness. Since its inception in 1977, McHappy Day has raised nearly $35 million for Canadian children. The total amount raised on McHappy Days across Canada this year was $3.4 million. The amount raised since McHappy Day in 2011 is $8.1 million. "Next year is the 20th anniversary of McHappy Day, so we are really going to be stepping things up," said Martins.

Tenth Relay for Life event at EnCana Arena June 22 and 23 By Murray Green

Relay for Life in Camrose has hit the 10-year mark in hosting a 24-hour event. This year the event will also have a venue change to the EnCana Arena on June 22 and 23. Last year the Camrose Relay For Life had 245 participants, on 24 teams, with the help of over 70 volunteers. The event celebrated over 100 cancer survivors and went on to raise $101,600. "The event was moved to the EnCana Arena, because the previous venue was unavailable on the weekend we wanted (it’s a week later this year)," said Amanda Race, Relay for Life regional coordinator. "It is also the 10th anniversary of the Relay in Camrose, so it was a great time to try something new." Money raised at the Relay For Life goes toward research, support, information, administration, advocacy and prevention. "There is going to be a survivors' reception and victory lap again this year, and the Relay begins at 7 p.m. with activities and entertainment throughout the night," added Amanda. "We are still looking for volunteers for the event, and leading up to the event. If anyone has any time to lend, or is a cancer survivor, he or she may register online at relayforlife.ca or get in contact with me." Contact Amanda at 780-437-8419 or email camrose.relayforlife@ cancer.ab.ca to receive more information.

ALL taking a look at transportation issues By Dan Jensen

The Association for Life-Wide Living (ALL) is re-opening the discussion around transportation. "We want to look at the transportation system we have in place now and see what we can do to make it more efficient," said Association for Life-Wide Living vice president Ted Wigglesworth. The association was presented with a cheque for $3,000 from the Camrose and District Family Thrift Shop recently that it plans to use to investigate the options available for getting Camrose, county and other rural residents to and from medical appointments in urban areas. "Our hope is to be able to invest in what has been done, what we have and what has been added, and what we can do to make things more effective," said Wigglesworth. ALL is a registered society that advocates on behalf of the Battle River region for increased health and wellness with activities in the private and not-for-profit sector that emphasize the wisdom of making informed personal and community choices. "As a growing, collective voice, rural Albertans identify and share creative ways to obtain and sustain life-wide living through good health, personal empowerment, education and inspiration," states an ALL strategic stakeholder plan ALL's transportation plan seeks to engage representatives from various service sectors to inform potential users about access and rollout in the various communities. "Region residents will be able to use the established communication networks and provide input through their local member in the Battle River Rural Health Network," states ALL. "Linkages with the counties, villages and the City of Camrose will enable people to obtain necessary information and services."

Camrose and District Family Thrift Shop president Gloria Wimmer presents a cheque for $3,000 to Association for Life-Wide Living vice president Ted Wigglesworth and secretary Evva Tomaszewski.

Kevin Sorenson, Member of Parliament for Crowfoot, is encouraging organizations that work to promote the well-being of local senior citizens to apply for federal funding. “As our Member of Parliament, I can report that over the years this program has served seniors in our riding. We have successfully applied before: it works for us.” The 2012-13 call for proposals for community-based projects under the New Horizons for Seniors Program launched on May 8 for all provinces and territories. Organizations can receive up to $25,000 in funding per year by addressing one or more of the program’s five objectives: volunteering, mentoring, expanding awareness of elder abuse, social participation and capital assistance. “It is important to provide meaningful programs and activities involving seniors,” said Mr. Sorenson. “This is just one more way we can help support organizations in their goal to promote and support the quality of life of Canadian seniors. Over the years, the New Horizons for Seniors Program has established a legacy helping local seniors put their experience to use through volunteerism and mentorship at the grassroots level in communities large and small.” The application deadline for community-based projects is June 29.

The Camrose Flying Club has held a Fly-in Breakfast for more than 55 years. The tradition has been a good one for the community. With good weather, the airport will be one of the busiest in Western Canada again with around 150 aircraft and about 1,300 people stopping in for breakfast on Sunday, May 27. "Even if it is rainy, we receive great support and over 1,000 people," said Barry Graham, president of the Camrose Flying Club. "The proceeds from the breakfast go to support the Camrose Air Cadet Flying Program, the Camrose Fish and Game Association and to help the club with a scholarship program. People really support us and the two other clubs. The fish and game people look after the cooking so it leaves the aviation experts available to handle the increased air traffic." Some aircraft will be on display for people to view throughout the day. Breakfast is served between 7 a.m. and noon on May 27. Registration for the COPA for Kids day to be held at the airport on June 17 will be held the same time as the breakfast. A legal guardian's signature is required. See the full story about the COPA for Kids program in this week's issue of The Camrose Booster. For more information about the COPA for Kids program, or the Fly-in Breakfast in Camrose, call Barry Graham at 780-6087004, email grahamb@cablelynx.net or visit copaforkids.org.

Gathering around a large radio to listen to popular music shows was a nightly highlight until television brought the stars to the screen. One of the more famous country music shows in the United States was the Louisiana Hayride. Hall of Fame musicians Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, Roy Orbison, Patsy Cline, Hank Williams and Jerry Lee Lewis all performed in the same radio studio. The Louisiana Hayride was a live radio show, broadcast over KWKH Radio in Shreveport, Louisiana. It ran successfully from 1948 to 1960. The show was instrumental in establishing the careers of such artists as Hank Williams, Elvis Presley and Johnny Cash and because of that, earned the nickname ‘The Cradle of the Stars’. The travelling version of the classic concert series has performed in sold out shows across Canada. The Louisiana Hayride will be stopping in Camrose for a single show at the Bailey Theatre on May 26, beginning at 7:30 p.m. "It’s hard to find this classic music anywhere and it has really hit home with those who have seen the show. The memories bring laughter, tears and joy," said performer Gil Risling. This live music show is written and produced by Lori Risling. It is performed with

live singers and re-creates the ambiance of those early radio show days. The show features over 30 songs made famous from the same 1948-60 time period. The Louisiana Hayride cast consists of a talented group of musicians. William Brookfield, on double keyboard, guitar, banjo and vocals is a composer and producer and toured as pianist for Long John Baldry. Gil Risling, on electric and acoustic guitar, bass guitar and vocals has been a musician most of his life and won a scholarship to the Banff School of Fine Arts where he studied voice training under the world-renowned Dr. Ernesto Vinci of the Royal Conservatory and Paul Schoffler of the Vienna State Opera Company. Mike Melnichuk on standup double bass, electric guitar and vocals has been touring Canada and the United States for years, making music from about the time the Louisiana Hayride started. Andrea Anderson, with her uncanny vocal resemblance to Patsy Cline was the National Anthem singer for the Phoenix Coyotes, Arizona Diamondbacks and Chicago Cubs. Once back in Canada, she won the 2004 Okanagan Idol contest and has performed at the Merritt Mountain Music Festival. Patrick Ryley, the EZRock morning host and assistant program direc-

tor toured across Canada for three decades, singing, dancing and acting. With his striking resemblance to Hank Williams, he has quickly become a crowd favorite. Lori Risling wrote a syndicated country music column for 10 years and has interviewed countless country music artists including Shania Twain, Vince Gill, Garth Brooks, Alan Jackson, Dwight Yoakam and Johnny Cash. "Our rendition in story and song takes you back to those days and that live radio show," said Gil. The Louisiana Hayride story and song will be shared with local fans and many questions will be answered, such as when the phrase “Elvis has left the building” was first spoken. They discuss why Roy Orbison wore dark glasses as you listen to those familiar tunes and hear the great stories. Gil started singing at age five and by seven had learned to play guitar from older siblings. In 1967, with brother Bill, Gil won the ACT, CFQC radio talent show for the province of Saskatchewan. Gil went to Banff, but singing classical music was not a passion for him, so he returned to the music he loved, classic country and early rock. Tickets for the show can be purchased by calling 780672-5510 or stopping by at the Bailey Theatre.

SAVE THE DATE - NEXT YEAR’S BLACK TIE DINNER IS SET FOR MAY 5, 2013

Numbers on the rise at Recycle with Centra Cam depot By Dan Jensen

The Recycle with Centra Cam depot did booming business in 2011. "We shipped 2,128 metric tonnes of recyclables in 2011, not including fluorescent tubes and paint," said Recycle with Centra Cam coordinator Terry Vickers. "That's 106 loaded semi trailers, or nine semi trailers per month." Old corrugated cardboard accounted for just over half of the shipment total, at 1,094 metric tonnes. "We sent 2,126 bales of cardboard, each weighing 1,200 pounds," said Vickers. "In 2008 the total number of bales was 1,118." Shipments of old newsprint

totalled 401.348 metric tonnes, while shipments of e-waste, including computers, printers, and televisions totalled 150.393 metric tonnes. "We get a lot of things thrown into the e-waste bin that we simply cannot take and are not accepted," stated Vickers. "We get everything from appliances like frying pans and toasters, to water coolers and vacuum cleaners." Tin contributed 30.68 metric tonnes to the overall total. "The number of bales of tin sent from the depot was 79, up from 44 in 2008," said Vickers. "It's one of the areas of biggest surprise." Tin cans may be dropped off

with the labels still attached but should be washed. The number of 1,200 lb. bales of plastic sent away from the depot in 2011 was 102, an increase from 44 bales in 2008. Totals for glossy paper products (magazines) and office waste in 2011 were 109.470 metric tones and 119.470 metric tonnes respectively. Other totals were: mixed paper, 34.655 metric tonnes; phone books, 10.769 metric tonnes; soft and hardcover books, 38.951 metric tonnes; coloured plastic (dishwasher detergent bottles, coffee containers), 22.159 metric tonnes; film, 16.650 metric tonnes; plastic tarps 14.700 metric tonnes; household batteries,

1.414 metric tonnes; and glass, 82.666 metric tonnes. "We accept clear glass only," said Vickers. "The City crushes it for us and then it eventually goes to Moose Jaw where it is crushed even further, then washed and mixed with paint to give the paint that reflective quality. If we have too much coloured glass in a load there is the chance they won't accept it." The depot recycled 40,100 litres of paint and 7,949.5 lineal feet of fluorescent tubing. Tubes and paint need to be brought inside the building. Vickers feels the increased recyclables at the depot can be traced at least partly to

the bag limits that were introduced at the start of last year. "By introducing the bag limit the City is forcing people to recycle," he said. "We've seen a lot of new people come in asking us what we do and do not accept and we give handouts to anyone who is interested." Another reason for the increase is the County recycling trailer, which brings in loads twice a week. "We usually get about eight loads of cardboard from Camrose County every month," said Vickers. Camrose businesses can arrange to have their office waste picked up and taken to the Recycle with Centra Cam depot by calling 780-679-4196.

Szmadyla named an exceptional mother By Dan Jensen

Lena Szmadyla and a friend are going to have the chance to explore Ottawa. Szmadyla was awarded a four-day vacation in the nation's capital last week as the winner of Pharmasave's annual Exceptional Mother contest. She and a friend will stay at the Lord Elgin Hotel, adjacent to the parliament buildings. The Exceptional Mother Contest has been an annual event put on by Pharmasave since it opened in 2007. The contest invites family members and friends to write a short essay detailing why they feel the person they are nominating deserves the title of exceptional mom. The essays are then reviewed by a panel of judges to determine the winner. "The entries are always very inspiring and often very creative," said Pharmasave owner Dean Jarrett. "People will often include pictures of art and other things just to try and communicate the outstanding characteristics of the mother they are nominating. It's just a neat chance to recognize a group of women that are often under-recognized and who have accepted such a demanding position." Szmadyla's nomination, entitled Something Called Mother Love, was submitted by Barbara Cox and friends. Something Called Mother Love Lena and Ed have three daughters. Lena is special. Her attitude toward life in general, and specifically family, is a role

Approximately $100 lbs. of food non-perishable food items were collected for the Food Bank in the Pharmasave Exceptional Mother Contest, Dean Jarrett, owner of Pharmasave, presents a cheque to Darlene Williams, a volunteer at the Camrose Food Bank.

model to young and old alike. She has taught us, no matter what we are going through we can show kindness and be helpful to others. Lena's second daughter, Judy,

was diagnosed with leukemia in her early thirties and battled it for 17 years. Lena was back and forth between Alberta and British Columbia, supporting their family

the entire time. She and Ed cut their holiday short in Hawaii to fly home and be with Judy in her final days. Judy died in February, 2011. It was about six weeks

after Judy's death, Lena was diagnosed with breast cancer. She faced surgery and a series of chemotherapy with courage. She was determined not to let cancer control her life. She shaved her own hair before chemo claimed it. Lena supported ladies she met during her treatment by sitting with them during theirs. She is truly caring. While focusing on getting her own health and strength back, their youngest daughter, Sue, was diagnosed with thyroid cancer in the fall of the same year, 2011. Between October, 2011, and to the present date, Lena has supported this family through their cancer journey. She has stayed with them, and driven Sue back and forth to the Cross Cancer for treatments. Her genuine concern for others requires that she maintain a balance between home and family. This is not an easy task. Lena does it. She has a commitment to her church, here and in Edmonton. Because their oldest daughter, Jennifer, lives in British Columbia, and Sue is not well enough to submit this entry, we as a group of friends feel Lena would be most deserving, and know Lena would be appreciative. We sincerely hope Lena would be considered for the Exceptional Mother's Day trip. Respectfully submitted, Lena's friends All 15 nominees in the contest received a personal letter of congratulations from Pharmasave, and a copy of the essay tribute submitted on their behalf.

Circumstances vary but factors include family illness, job layoff, misfortune, even stress from juggling the hours of a variety of low-paying, unpredictable jobs.

If you recognize you are “more blessed” than those who count on Camrose and District Food Bank for survival, consider making a donation.

Your gift and generosity will be well received and appreciated by families in need.

If you are a farmer or rancher and are in a position to donate an animal to us, we will pay for pick-up and processing costs. For this we use cash donations which we have and will gratefully accept.

Rumor has it that the Kodiak G.M. Boris Rybalka suggested Darcy Steen head over to Staples to check out some talent. So he did. But as the old saying goes: “It’s all in the interpretation.” Steen, the Kodiaks assistant general manager, thought he was supposed to go to the Staples Centre to watch a hockey game, which he did! Edmonton Oilers vs. Dustin Penner and The Kings. The Staples Centre is the home of the Los Angeles Lakers, Los Angeles Clippers and the NHL franchise too. The trip - memorable! Our thanks go out to Darcy for taking our home team paper for an away game. For his efforts we are sending him a cheque for $10.00. Do you enjoy reading The Camrose Booster? Show us with a picture! Drop off, mail or email a photo of you reading your Booster while vacationing. Be sure your travel destination can be identified by a sign or landmark. Or, have someone take your photo while you’re enjoying the home team paper in an unlikely situation. Each week one entry submitted will be published in The Camrose Booster. A $10.00 cash prize will be paid to you if your entry is published. A $50.00 grand prize will be awarded each January for the best entry submitted in the previous calendar year.

Arbor Day to be marked with plantings By Murray Green

The City of Camrose is inviting residents to help celebrate Arbor Day by planting a tree in the Stoney Creek Valley on Wednesday and Thursday. "This event is a great opportunity to restore areas of the Camrose park systems, as well as a great way to interact with the natural areas in Camrose," said Stacey Rempel, Wildlife Stewardship Society summer coordinator. The Arbor Day event will take place on May 16 and 17 at the Stoney Creek Centre on 39 Avenue, east of Parkview Drive, between 4 and 7 p.m. "Everything is provided by the city, all residents need to do is show up ready to plant a few trees," added Stacey. "This event is also a great opportunity for children, as they can plant a tree and as the years go by they can watch it grow." The Arbor Day tree planting is the first event this summer offered by the Camrose Wildlife Stewardship Society, which will be hosting educational events throughout the summer. For more information about Arbor Day or other events contact Stacey Rempel at swall1@ ualberta.ca or call 780-672-0544.

Hole-in-one for Mastel By Murray Green

The former mayor of the city of Camrose, Clarence Mastel, has finally done it. Clarence sank a hole in one at the Camrose Golf Course on May 8. According to golf pro Bill Penny, Clarence recorded his first single shot on the eighth hole using a six iron. No word from Clarence on how many rounds of golf he has played in his career prior to sinking the historic shot.

Matthew Mayer By Murray Green

This appealing and affordable bi-level features a spacious floor plan with lots of extras. This 1,002 square foot home has character and curb appeal. It is well maintained and the basement has been tastefully finished. The large, beautiful kitchen contains plenty of bright cabinets, contrasting counter tops and it even has a cozy breakfast bar for quick meals and is great for social interaction before tackling the day. The kitchen leads to a goodsized dining area with enough space to fit almost any dining set and your entire family. The attached living room is wired for

surround sound. It offers an inviting place to relax and enjoy a movie or your favourite television program. You can step outside the living room to bask in the sunshine on the raised southfacing wooden deck. The main level is completed with two bedrooms and a fourpiece bathroom. The large master bedroom has suitable storage space in a private setting. The exquisitely finished basement features a three-piece bath with beautiful tile flooring, a laundry/storage room, a large bedroom and a huge family room that allows for many different configurations. This whole space is tied together by the bright bi-level windows. There is plenty of space to create a fourth bedroom if needed while still enjoying a large living space. Additional features for the

house include a vinyl exterior finish, fresh paint in the basement, a paved back lane and a quiet culde-sac location. The deck leads to a huge backyard. Included with the purchase are a fridge, stove, washer, dryer, built-in dishwasher, built-in vacuum with attachments, satellite dish, window coverings and an air conditioner.

The CAMROSE BOOSTER May 15, 2012

Graduation class reflects on accomplishments Robin Manaloor gave this valedictorian address at the Camrose Composite High School graduation May 11. Good evening honored guests, members of the community, staff, family, friends and fellow graduates. It is such an honor to be standing here as valedictorian representing the Class of 2012. Fellow classmates, congratulations. We did it. We are graduating! Let’s think for a moment what all this means. Graduation is a time involving reflection of the past, excitement and jubilation in the present and making plans for the future. It’s a time when we, as graduates, get together for one last moment before moving on to what is life after high school. Together, all of us have directly or indirectly assisted each other in reaching where we are today. Our hard work and collaborative efforts have helped us as a group to excel in academics, sports, music, arts and trades. 2012 graduates be proud of what you have done. We have grown together and accomplished many great achievements. In 2009, when we joined the high school, we were considered new students. Today, we stand proud as young men and women, ready to be engaged citizens, ready to make a difference. Our time spent at the high school will always be a unique period for all of us. The long hours of studying and the months of preparation has allowed us to reach the end of one of the many important phases of our lives. We must however remember that this journey could not have been accomplished on our own. This fine group of young adults is here today because of the unwavering support from parents, guardians, teachers, coaches, counsellors, and administrators. We have been successful because you were always there to guide us. Thank you for creating an environment of enthusiasm for learning, appreciation for growing and room for making mistakes along the way. Our success is your success. You gave us the freedom to dare and discover. You gave us the courage to excel and you gave us the confidence that we could achieve our best. Our days in high school were filled with excitement, but that does not mean there weren’t any challenges. From parliament, pedigrees, poetry and polynomials, we have been on a constant path of discovery the past three years. Each and every day we encountered new concepts and ideas that will help us attain our full potential in the future. Though our short voyage through high school is coming to an end, I know we have been trained by the very best to face the future with confidence. Dr. Nelson Mandela once said, “Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.” Indeed, the education received at CCHS will breed the next generation of skilled technicians, artists, educators, politicians, doctors, entrepreneurs, lawyers, musicians and researchers. We have the skills to learn, the aptitude to succeed and the creativity and compassion to make a difference. As we look forward to the future, remember not to forget

Murray Green, Camrose Booster Valedictorian Robin Manaloor, inset, helped sing O' Canada before giving his address at the Camrose Composite High School graduation on May 11. Sarah Cole wanted to leave the stage after receiving her scroll from vice-principal Pat McFeely, but principal Jim Ofrim needed at least a handshake first.

the past. Walking the hallways of our school, I see bright smiling faces and I hear laughter echoing through the walls. I reminisce on all the wonderful memories created within CCHS. Memories that will remain with us forever. Very soon, most of us will be leaving the sheltered security of our homes, parents and family. We

will be entering the real world, faced with new challenges we must overcome. Always remember, the greatest limitations we face in life will only be the ones we place on ourselves. We must never underestimate our own capacity to make a difference. As graduates, today we are like free birds. Just like a little

robin hatching out of an egg, ready to fly away. Graduates as you fly, look down and think of where you want to land. Think of the opportunities you want to pursue. Imagine the paths you want to follow. Receiving a diploma tonight does not mark the end because in reality it’s only the beginning. The beginning of new

adventures, new relationships and most importantly, more parties. As we enter the next phase in our lives, we will be faced with many choices. It is like entering a room with several doors, each one of them presenting us with different opportunities. We must not be afraid to knock on these doors, open them and seize the opportunity that is ours. Instances may arise where doors may shut. We must not be discouraged and lose hope, but instead look for the unexpected opening of a new door. Or, in the words of Milton Berle, “If opportunity doesn't knock, build a door.” Always remember that we hold the key to our own future. Any door which you choose to unlock can be opened with hard work, dedication and perseverance. Our time in high school has provided us with the education necessary to succeed. However, our time here at CCHS has also provided us with something that is much deeper and much more difficult than any formula we could ever derive in physics or math. It is a special type of bond. Neither ionic nor molecular. It is the gift of true friendship. This is not something that can be taught, but it is something that is experienced. Fellow graduates, I stand before you today with gratitude and appreciation. I have been extremely fortunate in experiencing this gift with you and I thank you all. I am sure each one of you has also experienced this bond in a special way. As we move forward, I urge you to treasure the bonds between friends. Cherish the memories you have gained. As this chapter of our lives comes to an end, a new one begins. Let us take the knowledge we have learned and let it guide us into the future. Let us use our experiences to better ourselves and those around us. In another month and half we will be leaving CCHS, a place we have called home for the past three years. I want to point out that as we leave, our principal, Mr. Jim Ofrim, has decided to join us. Perhaps Mr. Ofrim has concluded that the 2012 graduating class is the best he has ever seen. Therefore he must naturally be thinking, they are leaving, so should I. Or then again, he could be so tired of us that retirement was his only option. Thank you, Mr. Ofrim, for making our life in high school one that we will not be forgetting soon. Tonight, I wish to leave you with a simple thought. In 1905, Albert Einstein published his special theory of relativity, which included the famous equation E = MC2, where E is energy, M is mass and C is the speed of light. To me, this is not the only interpretation of this equation. 2012 graduates, the challenges we face in life require that we become engaged citizens. It requires that we have strong moral values; it requires that we become creative and it requires we show compassion. This is my version of E=MC2. Moral values, creativity and compassion will make us all engaged citizens to meet the challenges that lie ahead of us. Fellow graduates, here’s to the memories of the past and the anticipation of a colorful future. Congratulations Class of 2012.

The CAMROSE BOOSTER May 15, 2012

Marcinkowski, Taylor look forward to exciting summer

Erna Radtke

Ty Marcinkowski and Carson Taylor

Two Camrose Vikings hockey players have just completed a successful winter hockey season and now look forward to an exciting season with their respective Junior Golden Bears spring teams. Ty Marcinkowski played goal during the 2011-12 season with the Camrose Atom Vikings and led the league in goals against average, save percentage and shutouts. Carson Taylor played for the Camrose novice Vikings and led his team in playoff scoring and was second in team scoring during the regular season. Both players were instrumental with their respective team’s success during the regular season and playoffs. Their successful play with their respective Vikings hockey clubs earned them a chance to try out and make the Junior Golden Bears Gold triple-A spring hockey teams. Ty Marcinkowski made the 2002 Gold triple-A Junior Golden Bear team while Carson Taylor was successful in making the 2003 gold triple-A Junior Golden Bears spring team. The two teams feature elite players from across Alberta and will be associated with the University of Alberta hockey program. Both teams will prac-

tice out of Edmonton and play a series of tournaments in Alberta and British Columbia to prepare them for an international tournament in Shanghai, China, in August 2012. The tournament will feature teams from Vancouver, Alberta, China, Taiwan, Sweden, Russia and the United States. In total approximately 125 relatives and players will be making the trip this summer to China to participate in and cheer on the two Junior Golden Bear teams at the international tournament. The experience will be an opportunity of a lifetime for the two young Camrose hockey players to participate in an international hockey tournament. Both Ty and Carson are very excited about the upcoming season with their respective Junior Golden Bear hockey clubs and look forward to sharing their experiences with their friends and teammates back in Camrose when they return from their trip. Both players are looking for fundraising support from their community. If anyone is interested in obtaining a package outlining the Junior Golden Bears organization and sponsorship goals, please contact Pauline Marcinkowski at 780672-1175.

Tee Pee Trade Vikings end successful season The Camrose atom double-A Tee Pee Trade Vikings concluded their 2011–12 season with success as they claimed a silver banner during their 16-60 atom Tier 2 league playoffs. The Vikings finished the regular season league play with a 16-2-2 record and were seeded third heading into the playoffs. The Vikings received a bye in the first round of the playoffs and then faced Strathcona in the second round in a two-game total goal scored series. The Vikings prevailed by outscoring the sixth seed Strathcona Spitfires by a combined score of 11-8. The series victory pitted the Vikings in the semi-finals against the second seed Morinville Mustangs. The Vikings defeated Morinville by a combined score of 6-4 in the two game series to advance to the league finals. In the league finals the Vikings faced the Drayton Valley Thunder who went undefeated during the regular season. The Vikings lost their home game 5-4 to the Thunder and then travelled to Drayton Valley for the return match. The second game proved to be exciting as the

Vikings jumped to an early lead only to see Drayton Valley battle back and lose the game 7-6 to the Vikings. This meant the two-game series was now even at 11 goals and overtime would be required to determine the league champion. In overtime, the Thunder scored half way through the period to claim the title. The league finals proved to be a success in more than one way for the Vikings. At the onset of the playoffs, the Vikings dedicated their games to the relative of one of the team players who was diagnosed with cancer. The Vikings parents and relatives provided donations and with pledges from Service Master Restore Services and Belfor Property Restorations to donate cash for every goal scored during the playoffs, the Vikings raised $5,900 for cancer research. The Vikings expressed appreciation to Len Raymond for coordinating the Cancer fundraising initiative and all the parents who contributed and assisted.

Erna Radtke of Camrose passed away on Sunday, May 6, 2012 at the age of 86 years. Left to cherish her memory are her husband Gary; children Keith (Shirley) of Leduc, Donna (Terry) Huebner of Hay Lakes, Denis (Edna) of Sherwood Park, and Harvey (Crystal) of St. Albert; 12 grandchildren; and 16 great-grandchildren.

The CAMROSE BOOSTER May 15, 2012

Community leaders step to the plate for BRCF By Dan Jensen

Camrose's community leaders stepped up to the plate for the Battle River Community Foundation May 9. The annual Professional Advisors' Luncheon at the Camrose Railway Station raised $13,100 for an endowment fund established by the Foundation to support its annual operating budget. The fund totalled $630,625.61 at the close of business in 2011. "We have had strong and faithful support from individuals and corporations over the years," said Battle River Community Foundation board chair Blain Fowler. "Harberg Nikiforuk Wood, Knaut Johnson Francoeur, Grant Nahirniak, Corey Kudrowich and Shirley Rostad and Doug Tien have all pledged to contribute at least $10,000 to the Administrative Endowment Fund." The luncheon has raised nearly $140,000 for the administrative endowment fund over its 11-year history. Savings account Fowler said the Battle River Community Foundation can be likened to a savings account, or an RRSP, for the entire community. "The idea is that we invest the money received from generous community-minded people, top up the capital to preserve purchasing power, and pass on the balance in accordance with donors' wishes to meet the emerging needs of the Battle River community." The Foundation delivered $180,778.55 to projects throughout the community it serves in the 2011 granting cycle, raising the total amount granted since 1995 to $1,466,022.20. The Foundation reached the goal of $5 million in endowments at the end of 2009, and has set a target of $10 million in endowments by the end of 2014.

Professional advisors who contributed to the Battle River Community Foundation's Administrative Endowment Fund at a hamburger luncheon last week are: (left to right, front) Glen Bulger, Battle River Credit Union; Gloria Smith, H&R Block; Cindy Cook, RBC Financial; Rod Knaut; Shirley Rostad, Tien Rostad LLP; Sheila Dawson, H&R Block; Peter Graburn, Fielding & Company LLP; (second row) Greg Wood, Harberg Nikiforuk Wood LLP; Brandon Kroeger, Kroeger Joyce Chartered Accountants; Brian Harberg, Harberg Nikiforuk Wood LLP; Martin West, Farnham West Stolee LLP; Grant Nahirniak, Investors Group; Scott Farnham, Farnham West Stolee LLP; Norm Mayer, Central Agencies; Corey Kudrowich, Investors Group; Larry Lewsaw, Kroeger Joyce Chartered Accountants; Dan Cunningham, Camrose Insurance Services Ltd; Dave Chamberlain, Sun Life Financial; Jon Stolee, Farnham West Stolee LLP; Greg Joyce, Kroeger Joyce Chartered Accountants; Ian Smith, Fielding & Company LLP; Larry Johnson, Knaut Johnson; Wayne Throndson, Fielding & Company LLP; Doug Tien, Tien Rostad LLP; and James Mayer, Central Agencies. Professional advisors who made contributions but did not attend the luncheon are: Mike Keleman, Camrose Insurance Services Ltd.; Debbie Orcheski, BMO Nesbitt Burns; Anna Harder, Certified General Accountant; and Corey Bablitz, Royal Bank of Canada.

"We're slightly behind schedule on the way to our objective, but we're not going to be throwing in the towel," said Fowler. "Each member of our board is tasked with going out and raising $30,000 before year-end by knocking on doors, telling our story and encouraging others to buy into our vision, and it is working. I can tell you that last month alone we received donations from 284 individuals totalling $58,722.07." Fowler said the work done by the community's professional

advisors in the area of planned giving is key to the growth of the Foundation. "We are certain that when one of those who come to you seeking advice on personal philanthropy that you will recommend consideration of the Battle River Community Foundation." Fowler said the attendance at the luncheon is an indication that the community's professional advisors have bought into the Battle River Community Foundation's vision. "I would like to congratulate

you for being a part of something that will truly make a difference in our community, in five years, in ten years, and even one hundred years from now and beyond. Your generosity and community spirit is truly appreciated. Sincere thanks from the entire community, for the good that you have done today will last forever." Members of the Battle River Community Foundation board of directors are: Blain Fowler, chair; Vivianne Grue, vice chair; Dana Andreassen, secretary; James Mayer, treasurer; Corey Kud-

rowich, Clarence Mastel, David Ofrim, By Reesor and Wayne Throndson, directors; and Ken Drever, past chair. The executive director is Kerry Grettum, while Tom and Mel Kuntz provide office systems support. The Battle River Community Foundation will be providing a summary of the events and activities of the last 12 months at the Norsemen Inn June 6, starting at 7:30 p.m. Guest speaker Verlyn Olson, MLA for Wetaskiwin-Camrose, will speak on the importance of a community foundation.

Aviation program lets kids experience flight By Murray Green

Pilot Barry Graham introduces his grandson Conner Graham to the inner workings of an aircraft through the Camrose Flying Club and Canadian Owners and Pilots Association (COPA). Youth between the ages of seven and 17 can sign up for a flight on Father's Day, June 17. Registration will be held on May 27, during the Camrose Fly-in Breakfast.

Local young airplane enthusiasts can become Junior Aviators and experience a real flight over the city. The Camrose Flying Club is holding its annual COPA for Kids day at the airport on Sunday, June 17. "A lot of our planes are two-seaters. That means they receive one-on-one information and they really get the full experience of being in the front of the plane," said Barry Graham, president of the Camrose Flying Club. "We give those spots to the older youth so they have a better ride and they get more out of it. They really have a good experience and view." Children between the ages of seven and 17, who haven't previously been a part of the program can learn all aspects of aviation, including the theory of flight and going for an airplane ride over the surrounding area. The flight lasts about 20 minutes. "We will have about five or six aircraft in total for the day. The pilots are there early for a safety check. We do a weather briefing and

we have two set patterns. The pattern we use depends on the wind on that day. We are thinking of going west to the CFCW towers, to Dried Meat Lake and then over to Bawlf and back to Camrose." The COPA for Kids (Canadian Owners and Pilots Association) program is set up as a motivational aviation experience, which focuses on an introductory flight in an aircraft to encourage more people to learn about the aircraft industry in the future. "Safety is the biggest concern. We all fly at the same altitude and about the same pattern so the pilots and ground crew know where we are. We have a flight every hour so all planes are back before we launch the next group. By the time they land and have a picture taken, the experience is close to an hour." The flights are provided at no charge by local pilots who belong to COPA. A short ground school session is followed by a flight with a Camrose and area pilot and a photo session includ-

ing the participant, pilot and aircraft. The pilots volunteer their time, fuel and aircraft to make this experience available to youth. "The pilots are getting enjoyment out of doing it. When you have children excited about flying, then it makes the whole thing worth it." The flying club limits the number of spaces to about 40 to provide a full experience. Registration, with a legal guardian's signature, will be held on May 27 during the Camrose Fly-in Breakfast at the airport between 7 and 11 a.m. If June 17 is declared a rain-out or the event is cancelled, the sessions will be held on June 24. The Camrose club has provided well over 200 youth with their first flying experience. For more information about the COPA for Kids program in Camrose, call Barry Graham at 780-608-7004, email grahamb@ cable-lynx.net or visit copaforkids. org.

Ram Laramie Limited HD Tackle the tough jobs By Dan Jensen

The new Dodge Ram Laramie Limited heavy duties at Camrose Chrysler are no slouches when it comes to heavy work. Laramie Limited 2500 models come standard with a 5.7 litre HEMI VVT V-8, which delivers 383 horsepower at 5,600 rpm and 400 lb.-ft of torque. Laramie Limited 3500 models come standard with a 6.7 litre Cummins Turbo Diesel that produces 350 horsepower and 800 lb.-ft. of torque. "It is the most durable and reliable engine in its class," said Camrose Chrysler sales manager Denis Mercier. The Cummins Turbo is backed by a choice of a standard, class-exclusive G56 six-speed manual transmission, or an available six-speed automatic. The six-speed manual has an ultra-low first gear ratio, which makes it ideal for heavy hauling requirements, while the sixspeed automatic offers ease of driveability and towing. The 5.7 litre V-8 is matched to a new heavy-duty six-speed automatic transmission and offers Electric Range Select, which provides a unique shift schedule that minimizes gear hunting while towing heavy loads, and provides automatic downshifting capability when decelerating. Transfer cases available with the Ram heavy duties include the NV271, a manual unit, and the NV273, which offers electric shift-on-the-fly. Look as good as they perform The Ram Laramie Limited heavy duties look as good as they perform, thanks to 17-inch polished aluminum wheels, chrome bodyside mouldings, and chrome or body-coloured front and rear bumpers with bright white and bright silver or black and mineral grey metallic paint. Wheelbases stretch from 149 inches on the crew cab to 160.5 inches on the mega cab. To accommodate cooling requirements of the 6.7 litre Cummins, the grille opening is larger than the lightduty grille. The larger grille incorporates a taller hood that includes louvres on each side. Access to the front winch and tow hooks led to the unique bumper design. The ingenious RamBox cargo management system consists of two large dry, lockable, illuminated and drainable side-bed bins, an adjustable cargo bed divider/extender, cargo rails and moveable tie-down cleats. Assets available from Mopar, like the fishing- and hunting-friendly RamBox holster, only sweeten the ride. The tailgate is sculpted for air flow, incorporating a spoiler in the upper part of the sheet metal. The tailgate includes a lift-assist feature that makes raising and lowering a one-hand operation. Standard bed-rail protection is included with the Laramie Limited cargo boxes.

Towing ability Ram Laramie Limited heavy duties have what it takes to get the job done, with an exceptional 10,319 kg maximum towing capability, as well as standard avail-

able assets like the Class IV hitch receiver, tow/haul mode, fifth wheel hitches from Mopar and ParkView rear back-up camera. "The impressive torque, combined with the five-year, 100,000 km powertrain warranty and Cummins' proven reputation for reliability are a direct response to the high expectations of customers," said Mercier. The backbone of the 2012 Ram heavy duties is a hydroformed, fully boxed frame with advanced torsional rigidity and stiffness. A coil-spring suspension setup is used in the front of the vehicle, while the multi-level spring design is maintained in the rear for heavy-duty capability. Front and rear shocks and springs are tuned for optimum ride quality and capability. Standard exhaust brakes (on diesel models) reduce brake fade, prolong brake life and provide confidence and safety when hauling heavy loads on downhill

grades. Large front (360 mm) and rear (358 mm) brakes with integrated anti-lock brake system increase brake life and braking stability. Trailer brake control information on the Laramie Limited is conveniently displayed in the electronic vehicle information centre, which is standard on all models. Other tow-friendly features include trailer-tow mirrors with integrated turn signals, memory function and puddle lamps.

John Wigston Camrose Chrysler

Comfortable interior The Ram Laramie Limited pampers the driver and occupants with Natura Plus full-leather seating, piano black components and creature comforts like dual-zone temperature controls, heated steering wheel, and electronics that take their cues from high-end audio and communications systems. From headroom to armrest to footwell, it is a ride with a comfort level that only Ram duty can deliver. Six-ring instrumentation keeps track of vehicle functions, while many controls are arrayed in the centre stack, for easy access to buttons and knobs. The Ram mega cab has the most interior volume of any truck in its class, giving you more than enough space to securely haul large boxes. When the more-than-average rear leg room isn't needed, mega capability comes into work or play. These rear seats fold flat, letting you transport large items with zero hassles getting it all in or out. Class-exclusive in-floor storage bins (on crew cabs) are perfect for out-of-sight storage when you need it. They are waterproof and drainable for keeping things cool.

You can see the 2012 Dodge Ram Laramie Limited heavy duties at Camrose Chrysler, on Highway 13 East. Phone 780-672-2476 or toll free 1-800-563-4202 and ask for a member of the friendly sales team.

Special Olympics donations Murray Green, Camrose Booster The Camrose Special Olympics softball teams received some help from Gord Weaver of Rightway Construction and Ashley McPhail of the Battle River Credit Union with $500 donations to the program. From left to right, coach Graham Wideman, Greg Lambkin, Dennis Sturrock, Bryce Miller, Gord Weaver and Ashley McPhail celebrated the donations. The ball teams also received $500 from Silvanna and John Vukojevic of Battle River Homes. Camrose Special Olympics offers programs in swimming, bowling and softball.

For the second straight year, Camrose Special Olympics has so many ball players that two teams will be fielded in a locally hosted tournament on June 24 at Kin Park. A softball team has been assembled for about 15 years. However, Graham and Carol Wideman have expanded the program in the last two years to be able to field two teams with between 25 and 30 players. "My goal is to have 40 athletes playing ball," said coach Carol. "It's a lot of fun. We encourage team work, respect and teach them new ball skills. Then after practice we go to A & W for some more fun." Last year, Camrose hosted a four-team Special Olympics softball tournament. "This year, we have booked two diamonds and we are hoping for six teams. Since we have two teams, it will be better to have more teams," explained Carol. "We split the teams evenly as much as possible, so everyone has the opportunity to play and have fun." The teams travel to Olds for a tournament in July and then enter a single team in a competitive tournament in St. Paul to close the season. "We play a game against our two teams to try our best to make the teams equal. Then we scout the players throughout the season and pick some of the better players for the last tournament in St. Paul," said Carol. "It does get competitive, so we only enter one team. It is very expensive and we have to stay overnight. Even then, with one good team, we lost all of our games. However, we had the most fun last year and we are looking forward to going again." Carol said the athletes just want to have fun and play the game they love. "It was funny. One of the players told their parents that they won every game and they had so much fun. Winning isn't the only ingredient for having fun. To them, winning isn't as important as having a good time and learning to play the sport a little better. It is more than just ball. It is a great social outing." Volunteers make the program run smoothly by ordering uniforms, equipment, organizing the tournament and helping to coach. "It is wonderful to volunteer and it is so rewarding. It is worth it, 10-fold," said Carol. Other coaches include Marilyn and Lex Noseworthy, Rick White, Stacey Wolbeck and Colleen McKinstry. "With two teams, we need the extra coaches to help us. Lex has helped for a long time." The coaches and athletes welcome all ball fans to watch the games on June 24.

PHOTO CLASSIFIED ADS

A picture is worth 1,000 words!

For Want Ad service, please phone 780-672-3142 before six on Friday Helpful Tips for Writing Classified Ads Which Get Results! Be Thorough Sure you want your ad to stand out from the rest, but don’t skimp on the sort of information that sells. The item’s condition, size, age, brand name, and color are some of the basics readers want to know. Without them, your ad may be overlooked.

Steer Clear of Abbreviations Okay, so you want to include all the important basics. Don’t use strange abbreviations because our ads are designed to spell all the important details. Besides, you are not paying by the line, but by the word, so there is really no need to abbreviate.

Be Honest Exaggerating your item’s finer points may bring in a lot of responses, but a buyer who’s misled won’t appreciate it and will take his business somewhere else.

State Your Price The cost of an item is one of the most important concerns of want ad readers. Ads showing prices are ones which get results. Giving a price also serves to “weed out” those buyers not in your price range.

Be Accessible Including a telephone number or address puts you in touch with potential buyers. Be sure to state the hours you can be reached: a caller who can’t get through the first time often won’t call again.

Don’t hesitate to call us with any questions or problems you may have regarding advertising. Our professionally trained sales staff know the ropes, and would be happy to pass their know-how on to you. That’s why we’re here, to help you get the results you deserve.

THANKS WE WOULD LIKE TO THANK the Camrose and area people for their kindness, care, donations and help over the past nine months. Our family appreciated every gesture of kindness from helping with our home, kids, financially, cards, gifts and phone calls. Special thanks to those who set up trust funds, the Aquatic Centre for the fund-raiser swim night, Walmart for the hotdog fund-raiser, the kind people at the Post Office, Sifton School, Battle River Online School, the Mitty family and everyone who showed their kindness in any way. Words cannot express our appreciation to you all! Our family spent four months in Vancouver while Krista was in critical condition. Krista then spent three months at Glenrose in Edmonton and is now receiving excellent care at Ponoka’s Brain Injury Rehabilitation Centre. Krista is doing miraculously well mentally and physically. There are still issues to deal with, but we are extremely grateful for every step of her recovery. Please accept our thanks and appreciation in this way. – John, Sandra, Krista, Riane, Sadie and Jesse Borgfjord

The care you provided to Milton during his final days was kind and compassionate and we appreciate all you did for him. The family also thanks Burgar Funeral Home - John, Bart, Bob for the detailed attention provided to Milton as you prepared him for his homecoming and for the sympathetic regard provided throughout the funeral; the mass delivered by Father Leon Kler; Ministerial Aids Dennis, Gene, Grant, John, Theresa and the musicians - Audrey, Denise and Susan - was beautiful and will provide Milton’s loved ones with comfort in the days to come. To Pallbearers Brent, Chuck, Corey, Darren, Steven and Trent, we appreciate your fellowship as you aided in Milton’s final journey. As well, thanks to the Catholic Women’s League for the lunch and refreshments; this provided time for Milton’s family and friends to remember and celebrate his life.

The Camrose Wildlife and Stewardship Society has hired University of Alberta, Augustana Campus student Stacey Rempel as the new summer coordinator. Stacey just finished her third year of environmental studies and is excited to be able to work in a related field. "One of my professors, Glen Hvenegaard, asked if anyone in our class would be interested in the position. After class, I asked him more about the position and decided to apply," she said. "The first thing I will be doing is planning the tree planting days." The Arbor Day tree planting event will be held on May 16 and 17, from 4 to 7 p.m., by the Stoney Creek Centre. People are encouraged to stop by and plant a tree in the valley to help replenish the natural environment. "Then we will be going into our environmental education nights. They will be held on Tuesday evenings and start on May 29," added Stacey. "We are asking people to meet at the Stoney Creek Centre prior to 7 p.m., so we can start right away." The eight-week program ends on July 17. "We are trying a new event called green parenting. We want to attract young parents who will pass on the knowledge to

One of the topics in the series will be about locally grown organic food. "Someone will explain what foods are available and how you can purchase a variety of items through a cooperative effort. They do the leg work for purchasing food," she added. Stacey will be talking about

the local area to about 65 Hong Kong students this summer. "I don't know a lot right now, but it is through Augustana. One of the days they are here, I will be doing an event with them. That will be very interesting." Stacey has always enjoyed the outdoors. "We went camping a lot when I was younger and it gave me an understanding about nature. I did a little bit of training as a wilderness guide in

British Columbia. When I was in Grade 11, I was in an outdoor education class and through that experience I gained a huge amount of confidence in myself," said Stacey. "I helped plan trips and that was a catalyst for me to help others. In nature there are spiritual, emotional and those kinds of aspects you can learn. I learned a lot about nature and it gave me confidence because I knew a lot about trees and

which berries I can pick. I want to pass on my knowledge to help others." After high school, Stacey enrolled at Augustana. "I'm excited about this job because I can teach others and reach out to different people. We have a wide variety of activities planned, and it is not just for outdoors people. The grandmas, moms and children can all take part and have fun."
