Time for discussion on stroke Donna Hastings, CEO, Heart and Stroke Foundation, Alberta

Remember the awkwardness when it came to your first “S-talk?” Whether you were doing the talking or the listening, chances are discussing the birds and the bees was a bit uncomfortable. But it was necessary and helpful. Fast forward to the present and it’s time to have another S-talk with your loved ones – this one is about stroke. Your first S-talk saved you from making bad decisions. This S-talk can save your life – or the life of someone you love. Here’s why: too many Albertans don’t know that it’s crucial to call 9-1-1 immediately after stroke symptoms appear. And two-thirds of Albertans arrive at hospital too late for treatments that can prevent damage, reduce disability and save lives. That’s why the Heart and Stroke Foundation has launched the S-talk campaign. We want every Albertan to talk to their parents, families and friends about stroke warning signs and the need to seek treatment – quickly. How quickly? For every minute of delay in treating a stroke, the average patient loses almost two million brain cells. The good news is stroke can be treated if caught early – within 3½ hours from the onset of symptoms. So protect the ones you love by having a talk about stroke. Help them know the signs and to call 9-1-1 if it happens. At heartandstroke.ca/stroke you’ll find out more about the S-talk and retro-inspired eCards to help get the conversation started with the people you love.

BRSD will be having hard discussions starting this fall By Dan Jensen

The Battle River School Division will be having hard discussions with system stakeholders over the next couple of years on everything from the realignment of school boundaries and the number of schools it operates, to how to make better use of existing spaces. School division board chair Cheryl Smith told Camrose city council June 18 that BRSD has recognized the inevitability of change and is committed to evaluating the current system. "In the city of Camrose we are most likely to have discussions about moving students from one site to another." BRSD superintendent of schools Dr. Larry Payne noted in an interview June 20 that the school board will be scheduling meetings in early fall with students, staff, parents and community members from across the division to address the issues. His hope is that the conversations will be broad in nature and look at the collective good of the entire division, not simply one community or interest group. "We want people to understand that it is not about sacrificing one school to the benefit of another. We know everyone is going to be passionate about their own community and we

respect that, but we need to be passionate at the bigger level." The discussions are necessitated by the fact that enrolments and the funding attached to those enrolments have been declining steadily over the last 17 years. Since 1995 the overall enrolment at BRSD Schools has gone from 7,889 students to a projected 6,241 students for September, 2012. The projected student population at Camrose Composite High this fall is 558, down from 950 students in 1995. "Even allowing for the fact that Grade 9 was moved to Charlie Killam, this is a significant drop," said Smith. BRSD expects the declines will start to level off over the next couple years. "The numbers should start to increase by the year 2014 and begin to increase slightly after that," said Dr. Payne. BRSD has countered the declining enrolment and funding by using reserve dollars, reducing the number of division-wide staff, including two assistant superintendent and two division principal positions, making reductions in the departments of operations/ maintenance, transportation and business, and consolidating the use of space, including

closing one maintenance shop and moving occupants of two division-wide office buildings into one. It has also reviewed and adjusted the budgets of every department and school in order to ensure that all sites are living within their financial means, with no additional subsidies provided. "We implemented a policy two or three years ago that requires all of the departments in the division and every school to operate within their allocated dollars," said Smith. "For many years we addressed enrolment issues by using our reserve dollars. Those offset the decline in funding but our reserve dollars are now depleted." In rural schools, BRSD has been trying to coordinate timetables so that courses can be offered at multiple sites at the same time through video conferencing. Video streaming services have also been made available so staff can access valuable teaching resources. Smith said the challenge to ensure that all the spaces and resources are used to maximum efficiency is becoming a greater challenge as the school populations become smaller and there are gaps between the number of students in elementary and high school.

"We remain focused on students and focused on our vision, and are committed to doing whatever we can to deliver the best possible education we can within our means." Smith said it is difficult to make changes without impacting staffing considering the fact that 75 per cent of the total budget of more than $80 million goes towards salaries and benefits. As part of the annual staffing process, BRSD has identified schools where there are teaching staffing gaps for next fall, and schools which have more teachers or skill sets than they will need for the next school year, based on the student population and learning needs. "As a school division we are working hard to match those two pieces," said Dr. Payne. "As much as possible we want to ensure that students have the program they require and that teachers have a job that fits their skill." BRSD is currently in the difficult task of juggling teaching staff across the division. "Teachers won't all have jobs in the schools they are in this year but we are hoping we can find placements for virtually everyone," said Dr. Payne.

A piece of good news for the division will be the breaking of ground this fall for the new Bawlf School. "We didn't ask the government for replacement, we were requesting upgrades to mechanical and electrical and accessibility for wheelchairs, but they (the government) decided it would be best to replace the school," said Smith. BRSD had a meeting with new Minister of Education Jeff Johnson June 19, during which Smith and Payne expressed concern about funding for education in rural Alberta. "We feel there should be a greater allowance for education in rural Alberta and recognition of contributions that rural schools make to the whole of Alberta," said Smith. BRSD has initiated discussions regarding a preschool program but feels the need to have more research before making a decision to move ahead. "We will be actively pursuing this conversation next year because we feel once we get students into the school system they will stay in the school system," said Dr. Payne. "The challenge is that it takes seed money to get something like this going."

Concerned CCHS students march to school board office By Murray Green

Camrose Composite High School students were tired of being left in the dark about proposed changes and staff cuts for next year. On Wednesday, June 20, about 100 students marched from the school to the Battle River School Division office to ensure their voices were heard. A common theme of poor communications, lack of transparency and no student input between the board and the students was brought up by several speakers. “Throughout our lives as students, we have been taught to be active citizens. To be active in school and in the community, you must be given, and have to be able to access the necessary information to compile our own thoughts and therefore actions, on an issue without being ignorant," said student Allyson Wrubleski. "Many of our student body feel as though we have not been fully informed, and therefore somewhat neglected in the decision making process, which affects every single one of us every day.” Allyson went on to say that the actions of today may not make changes, but they wanted to make sure they did their part in being active citizens. "Much of the information we have received has been from word of mouth," she said. "We should have been informed directly from the source. Many of us feel our entire education has been somewhat compromised due to having been blindsided by this decision (cutbacks). We understand that there is more to the decision than we recognize, but we want you to understand that this is an attack," said Allyson. "We

want this to prove that we care about the decisions being made in regards to our education. We are frustrated with the fact that we have no input into decisions that impact us on a daily basis." In response, Dr. Larry Payne said "It is very clear that our education system is working when we have such passionate and articulate conversation and speech, so well done. We will not get into content, but I just want to applaud your ability to articulate and advocate your prospective in a highly intelligent way." Next year's student leader also spoke up about the changes planned for the future. “We as a school, and as a collective student population, are feeling

that there is a substantial lack of communication between the school board, the administration and the students,” said student council vice-president Dilshant Garcha. “Our biggest concerns are the unjustified reassignments and pressure to resign being put on teachers, as well as any unprecedented changes to our marking system. Our teachers at CCHS are very important to us because they help us achieve our full potential,” Dilshant said. "When it comes down to deciding who will shape our future, we must be informed. This is our education that is at stake. Another concern is the new marking system for next year that we know nothing about.

The lack of communication is terrifying to us." Dr. Payne unveiled his thoughts on what the board was planning. "We are starting a board superintendent/student leadership council and that has already been in the works. Starting in the fall we will be asking representatives, exactly like this, to come and sit with us on a regular basis, to come and have these important conversations,” he said. "The majority of our adolescent years are spent with these people (teachers), and they truly become like family to the student body," said Sarah Cole. "The teachers at Battle River are afraid to speak out against the policies enacted by the

board. They are afraid by grasping their freedom of speech, that they will be placing their careers in jeopardy. Because of this, the students are kept in the dark as to what is happening at our schools." BRSD board chair Cheryl Smith also addressed the students. "You have brought up some good points about communication, transparency and the quality of education, which we look at." Student Marissa Tollefson presented her take on the situation. "We have been taught to take responsibility in our education, and yet we have not been given the opportunity when important issues affect us. We have an atmosphere at school that is damaging our education. We want our student voices heard. Teachers prepare us for life and we should be celebrating that instead of punishing them for that," said Marissa. "Hiring teachers who are not specified to one course may save money, but it is at the expenses of the quality of education. The best teachers should be in front of the largest number of students." The communication lines were only slightly opened when about six student representatives went inside to discuss the issue behind closed doors. Other students, parents and media were denied access. However, Dr. Payne was willing to discuss what was talked about after the meeting. "It was a great meeting and forthright. We broke it down to three areas. Communication, staffing and assessment. We talked about two and put assessment on hold for ongoing conversation," explained Dr. Payne. Continued on page 7

REA recaps busy year

QUEEN SET Serviceman Brad Nieuwkirk conducted a demonstration on electrical shorts at the annual general meeting of the Battle River Rural Electrification Association June 21. By Dan Jensen

Battle River Rural Electrification Association members are reaping the rewards of being part of a cooperative. Battle River REA general manager Colleen Musselman presented a report at the association's annual general meeting in Camrose, June 21, showing that, compared to customers of other utility companies, members paid $4 million less in 2012 in distribution tariffs and $1 million less in energy costs. "The average savings per member this year was $677," said Musselman. "Over the last five years the members would have saved an average of $3,100." The savings were even greater for those on a Battle River REA energy contract. "If you signed an energy contract with us and your average monthly consumption was 800 kilowatts, you would have saved an additional $230 in energy costs," said Musselman. "If you used 1,200 kilowatts you would have saved $345 this year. If you were 1,500 kilowatts you would have saved $431. And if you were 2,500 kilowatts average you would be at $719." Musselman noted the Battle River REA has reinvested more than $27.3 million in local communities and $100.3 million into the provincial economy over the last seven years. "We believe we have the obligation to care for the prosperity of our communities for future generations," she said. Musselman said a board of directors of a cooperative like the Battle River REA must always take into account how its decisions relate to the long term sustainability of the cooperative and the membership. "Sale or demutualization occurs when a cooperative fails to operate like an efficient business and follow the seven cooperative principles." Musselman said the cooperative movement is gaining strength around the world. "The International Cooperative Alliance states there are over one billion people served in 90 countries by cooperatives. In Canada, the Canadian Cooperatives Association reports that one in three people are served by a cooperative. There are over 9,000 cooperatives serving 18 million members. They have combined assets of more than $330 billion and employ 150,000 plus people." Battle River REA board president Dan Astner said the board has worked hard with

other REAs, individually and through the federation of REAs, and with other utility providers to deliver electrical service. He noted since the last annual meeting in 2011, the Battle River REA has signed an agreement with AltaLink, which owns the high voltage lines for transmission in this part of the province. "This agreement, which was negotiated through the federation, will potentially save us hundreds of thousands of dollars just in our REA alone as we become impacted by the new transmission lines that are being built throughout the province." Astner said today, more than ever, the board of directors must use all the tools of good governance and management. "With the many challenges facing the electrical industry and the rural agricultural sector, the board must develop a long-term strategy based on sound business principles demonstrating adherence to the organization's vision and mission." Astner said since the customer and the shareholder in a cooperative are one and the same, there is no driving focus to make profits from the customer above costs. Musselman said the Battle River REA is giving customers the option of signing a new price competitive contract starting January 1, 2013, and is looking at potentially offering aggregated services that make economic sense to the members. "We use group purchasing to buy energy and we could probably do group purchasing for other things if that is what the members want to do," she said. "For example, we could buy tires from a manufacturer for 26 per cent less than they could be purchased at a place like Fountain Tire or Kal Tire." The Battle River REA spent $4.85 million in the communities it serves in 2011-2012. "We have a policy that if we can buy what we need locally that is where we buy it," said Musselman. Members of the Battle River REA board of directors are: Vern Dick, Ed Galloway, Don Moman, Robert Black, Brian Carlson, Jake Reimer, Jim Matthews, Claire Nordin, Bruce Carlson, Terry Pederson, Biff Blue, Ron Kozial, Dan Astner, John Winnick and Malcolm Barr. Scholarship recipients were: Jolene MacKay, Irma; Blair Fandrick, Calmar; Brandon Komarnisky, Holden; Sandy van Dijk, Tees; Nevan Barnes, Alliance.

Concerned CCHS students march to school board office Continued from page 6

"We were able to clarify our roles and enhance communications. We would like to meet more regularly. Students are the number driver for programs and staffing and we explained that process. We gave some history on number of students and the decline. We also pointed out that any student, at any time (and parents for that matter), can sit in on our board meetings. It is a public meeting." The board will be seeking leadership students from the high schools within the BRSD to hold meetings and discuss what and how changes can be made. Although the process has not been finalized, a spokesperson would then pass on those ideas to the board. "The committee and BRSD

would have the opportunity to put items on the agenda. We would likely have a board representative on that student committee," said Dr. Payne. "We look at this as an opportunity. In our discussions on the board we talk about staffing relationships with students and what comes out is passion for education," added the superintendent. "I was impressed by the students today and blown away by their passion for education. These are our future leaders." The students wanted to ensure the process continues and asked when the next meeting will be and what are the next steps to take. "They were on a mission and it wasn't just a one time meeting. Although they only have a week left, they want to talk

again before school is out. A lot of them are in Grade 12 and won't be back next year, but they have the passion to ensure the concerns are passed on for the future." BRSD have solved most of the staffing issues for next year. "We work right down to the last day of school and on into the summer. We never know until we see the whites of their eyes in September, if we have more changes to make," said Dr. Payne. "Every year we have changes. Without even knowing it, we expect students to change teachers every 10 months and have new classmates each year. " The BRSD is expecting two more years of declining enrollment before the number of students is projected to rise again.

PEN POINTS by Berdie Fowler

Be grateful for rights; remember responsibilities I watch TV news twice a day, read a daily newpaper, a weekly national news magazine, and several international publications. Not all Canadian news is good, however, considering world news, by far most of the reports and other information leave me feeling very grateful that I have the good fortune to be a Canadian living in Canada. Contacts with many of the immigrants to Canada also reinforce my appreciation of my country. Those who have emigrated from countries ravished by war, corruption, illiteracy, poverty, starvation and/or hopelessness, make us aware of the many blessings we in Canada simply take for granted. When we go to work each morning we don’t fear for our safety. When we go to the market, we don’t wonder if this might be the day a suicide bomber causes havoc in the mall. When we go to bed at night, we don’t fear that our home will be raided, and our men taken away. It’s a good exercise to take a minute to think about that and be ever so grateful. When we women and girls in Canada go to school, are we filled with gratitude that, in our country, women and girls have access to universal education, unlike some countries where they are denied that opportunity? I hope so because education is essential if we hope to make a better world. It is said that to educate a mother is to educate a whole family. We need to stamp out illiteracy wherever it is found. We have universal health services in our country capable of maintaining and/or restoring health to heights that, not too long ago, were deemed impossible. The system is so good that too many of us ignore healthy living rules and rely on our health care givers to fix the effects of our self-destructive lifestyle. In Canada our politicians have disagreements. In fact our parliamentary system divides our legislators into government party and official opposition. However, they do not resort to warfare to settle differences as is the pattern in some parts of the world; our politicians talk and vote. On Canada Day, July 1, and every day, let us be grateful that our country is a place in which we enjoy peace, safety, justice and opportunity, as well as freedoms of speech, religion, travel, and access to health care and education. One last thought: a reminder that with these bountiful blessings of freedoms and rights go responsibilities to be good citizens and do our share to make a better world.

Great fiction When the Redford government spoke about fixing our health care and our wait times, it would seem that they seem like fiction rather than nonfiction. I am a fiction writer and I do believe my fiction stories are more believable than what the government claims are the truth. This makes me angry! I am so glad that I never did vote for that party! I was reading an article about the Canadian Wait time Alliance 2012 report. This report confirms that the Redford government has FAILED to fix an out going crisis in emergency rooms across Alberta while handing out taxpayers - funded performance bonuses to the super board executives. Excuse me! I may not be a politician but I am not dumb. Isn't performance bonuses for successes and NOT for failures? Maybe I am missing something? This is why I call this in my view, fiction. The report gave Alberta a D on meeting the five categories of admitted emergency room patients and further indicates no improvement over last year's performance. This comes days after it was revealed that Alberta Health Services executives collected more than $450,000 in performance bonuses in 2011. Heather Forsyth has said "The super board continues to miss both its own targets and independent bench marks like the Canadian wait times Alliance, yet despite these failures they're still collecting bonuses. She also continued on to say that "Albertans expect their government to address failures, not reward them. This report card demonstrates that our public health care system remains broken and our front line staff are the ones holding it together. Perhaps the government should focus on fixing it before handing out big undeserved bonuses." Maybe this is totally acceptable to many Albertans? To me personally, this

is so unacceptable for any government to act like. However, who can blame them? They have acted this way for the past forty years. In every election Albertans just smiled and voted them back in. Maybe they got the wrong message? They now believe that they can do whatever they want and next election they will be rewarded by another term! Now this is only my opinion and this is how I see things. I do wonder if in the next election Albertans will just smile and give them another passing grade? If that does happen, I wonder if that will make a great fiction story? Lorne W.P. Vanderwoude Camrose, Alberta Panhandle panhandling So City Council is seeing fit to spend our money ($12,500) giving Big Valley attendees a free lunch. They need to advertise of course, otherwise we would never pay our taxes. By the way, did you notice students in the Grande Prairie region must have all been brought up as an only child with their very own bathroom, since "the notion that they have to live in a dormitory on North Campus with shared bathrooms is just terrifying to them." I guess they choose Augustana instead because its residences are not the source of such terror. Isn't Camrose great! Douglas Hendrickson Camrose Teaching reductions I was deeply saddened to hear news of teaching staff reductions at Camrose Composite High School (CCHS) for reasons revolving around lower enrolment. It's another example of inadequate funding for public service where 'downloading' results in downloading more responsibilities on fewer individuals. Yet again local communities have shrinking control, but bear the brunt of misguided decisions made at the provincial and federal levels where greater control is centralized. Where is the sense in funding schools purely on enrolment when surely, after 40 years in power, the PC party could have recognized declining census trends and planned accordingly? The new Redford administration still is not increasing royalties or implementing fair taxation, which could readily address public service shortfalls. Certain core programming and maintenance costs need to be covered regardless of fluctuating populations. School districts are larger

and leaner; they have no surplus left, cannot carry deficit budgets, yet are still expected to provide for increasingly higher demands to serve more inclusive, complex, student education needs. It is ironic as Berdie Fowler stated in her June 19 column, in times of skilled labour shortages, that "a $10 million investment was made at our composite high school to provide a state-ofthe-art expanded facility for teaching trades," yet funding for adequate instruction is no longer provided. She suggested that "cooperative partnerships" as possible solutions. In fact, educators prefer to collaborate. However, given the current trend foisted upon schools to compete for students, it's practically impossible. The end result is teachers are given larger class sizes, expected to deal with more complex student learning needs while staying current academically. What is their reward for dedicated, loyal careers of stellar public service? Sadly it is too often becoming the forced choice of early retirement, transfer, dismissal or to do more with less. It reminds me of Dr. Seuss' Yertle the Turtle. When King Yertle demands more turtles stack themselves up so that he can oversee larger territory, Mack, the 'plain little turtle' at the bottom bears the greatest pain. Mack groans, pleads relief from the unbearable weight. Eventually, all come tumbling down. Who is advocating for the 'Macks' and those squeezed between, in public service? I highly commend CCHS students for their caring response to the downsizing pains occurring at their school. On Wednesday, June 20, my spirits were lifted at seeing 50 or more students walk to the school district office to voice their concerns to officials. Bravo! You restore my hope and inspire me. We have challenges to overcome and we can do so much better by building more inclusive, equitable communities based on generosity, shared responsibilities, and collaborative leadership. That leadership must start at the top where politicians need to take seriously their responsibilities to the public good. As we hear so often, billions of profits are being made in Alberta. So it is the height of mismanagement for our educational system, at all levels, to be denied what is needed, not for frills, but for the basics. Ellen Parker, Camrose

UFA invites nominations for Small Town Heroes By Dan Jensen

UFA Cooperative Limited is inviting nominations for its Small Town Heroes contest. Started three years ago, the Small Town Heroes contest seeks out and rewards individuals in rural Alberta who go above and beyond for their communities. "The UFA was built by small town heroes dating back to 1909," said Bob Nelson, president and CEO of UFA Cooperative Limited. "These pioneers lobbied for equal access to education, campaigned for the rights of family and women, created the Department of Health, passed the Municipal Hospitals Bill, established and improved the health care system, improved roads and much more. We are proud that UFA's Small Town Heroes contest builds on our history and celebrates the small town heroes of today." The contest's two grand prize winners will each receive $10,000 for a community project and an exclusive Paul Brandt concert in their home town. Eight runnersup will receive $2,500 for a community project. The top ten Small Town Heroes nominees will be personally greeted and interviewed by members of UFA's judging panel in their respective home towns. One of the nominees in the 2011 Small Town Heroes contest was long-time community volunteer Cliff Walline. A profile posted on the UFA website noted that Walline has volunteered for many things but, most recently, has lent himself to the Camrose volunteer fire department. "Cliff never discusses how his volunteer work affects him. He feels it is part of his duty to serve his community, where his family lives, and which he calls home." Nominations for the 2012 Small Town Heroes contest are open until July 22 at www.ufa. com/smalltownheroes. UFA is a network of 113 bulk fuel and cardlock petroleum outlets, 35 Farm and Ranch Supply stores, and 24 outdoor adventure stores operating under the Wholesale Sports banner.

The Ecole Sifton Home and School Association is a little closer to its goal of raising $225,000 for a new school playground, thanks to the willing and generous spirit of Camrose businesses and organizations. The association will be receiving a cheque for $6,000 from Ford of Canada and Lamb Ford Sales as a result of a successful Drive One 4 UR School event at the school June 9. Drive One 4 UR School has been established as a way for Ford of Canada to promote its products while supporting worthwhile school projects. For every test drive that is taken during the event, Ford donates $20 to an organization of its choosing. "We were able to raise $4,640 from 232 test drives, which Lamb Ford then topped up to $6,000," said Lamb Ford Sales general manager Pat Quinlan. The Drive One 4 UR School event was combined with a Family Fun Day that included a concession, children's activities and face painting. Mike Kelemen, from the co-operators, provided an inflatable slide, while sponsors were Camrose Victim Services, Superstore, Sobeys, The Grocery People, Smitty's, UFA, Camrose Regional Exhibition, The Camrose Booster and CAM-FM. The amount raised from the concession and the face painting was over $1,000. Quinlan was impressed with the work that was done by the Sifton Home and School Association in organizing the day and getting volunteers involved. "One of the reasons it was such a great success was the community involvement," he said. "It amazes me all the time how Camrose always rises to the occasion." Home and School Association member Eva Sveinbjornson expressed appreciation to all the volunteers, including those from Lamb Ford, who supported the event. "Everyone was just great to work with," she said. The Sifton Home and School Association has raised approximately $100,000 of the $225,000 it needs for the playground. "We have ordered the main part of the playground, which we hope to have installed at the end of August, and are just waiting now for some of the grants to come in that will allow us to add some additional features," explained Home and School Association president Celina Brisson. The playground has been designed to accommodate as many as 150 students at a time. "There are a few different pieces, all of which are connected," said Sveinbjornson. "There are climbing structures, three or four slides and a number of monkey bars throughout." Ford of Canada and Lamb Ford Sales were quick to respond to the association's request for assistance. "We felt it was a good cause and, as a business, it is always nice to be able to give back to the community that gives to us," said Quinlan. "It was a great day all around."

This has been a busy 4-H month for 4-H members and our parents. This concludes my last 4-H report for Coal Lake Light Horse 4-H.

Otto Koentopp estate assists Stollery and Bawlf Lutheran

Plan Now For Their Future Needs You’ve worked your entire life to build your assets. Sound estate planning can ensure these hard-earned assets are passed on to your family according to your wishes, without interference. Talk to us today about developing a plan that makes sense for you and your loved ones.

By Dan Jensen

Before his passing last September, Otto Koentopp was always helping those in need. "Although he lived a very humble life, he made quite a few donations to groups and organizations," said friend and caregiver Brian Austrom. "On his final tax return he had an accumulated donations surplus of over a quarter of a million dollars." Two of the final beneficiaries of Koentopp's generosity were the Stollery Children's Hospital Foundation and the Bawlf Lutheran Church, which received the bulk of an estate that totalled more than $200,000. The Stollery Children's Hospital Foundation was presented to Jan Archbold, vice president of marketing and communications, June 15. "He always had a soft spot in his heart for children because he and his wife, Irene, could never have them," said Austrom. "His words to me one time were that it is all about the children." Although he spent the last ten years of his life at Deer Meadows, Koentopp was a long-time member of the Bawlf Lutheran Church. "Our pastors visited him regularly as they did with the other members of the congregation who live there," explained Austrom. "At last count we have about 15 members who live at Deer Meadows." Koentopp immigrated to Canada from Germany in 1953 with the assistance of Canadian Lutheran World Relief. His train trip to western Canada was subsidized by Canadian National Railway. "He still had the receipt that showed that he paid for the trip," said Austrom. It was while Koentopp was taking German lessons that he met his wife, Irene (nee Mosand), whose parents were early settlers in the Bawlf area. "She was the one who taught him English," said Austrom.

Help seniors fight fraud

Brian Austrom, executor of the Otto Koentopp estate, presents a sizeable cheque to Jan Archbold, vice president of marketing and communications for the Stollery Children's Hospital Foundation. The estate also assisted Bawlf Lutheran Church and a few other worthwhile charities.

"That is how they were able to meet." The Koentopps purchased a farm in the Redwater area, and lived there for 25 years before buying a house in Camrose, behind Smitty's Restaurant. Bawlf Lutheran Church pastor Bill Harder remembers Koentopp as a great story teller.

"He had very clear memories of growing up on a farm in Germany, the time he spent in the German army after he was conscripted at the age of 14, and the time he spent on the farm," said Harder. "He was a very optimistic and grateful person." Koentopps also left money from his estate to several other charities.

Seniors are too often victimized by telemarketing fraud. Studies have shown that many elderly fraud victims simply don't suspect the person soliciting money on the phone could be a criminal. There are as many as 14,000 illegal telemarketing operations going on at any given time. These illegal operations generate as much as $40 billion a year. Relatives of seniors are understandably concerned, particularly if those seniors live alone and no one is around to monitor how many calls they're receiving from telemarketers. Concerned relatives can share the following information with seniors to reduce their loved ones' risks of being victimized by telemarketing fraud. * Legitimate marketers are not in a rush to sell products or secure donations. A legitimate marketer or charity will not try to pressure prospective buyers into making a purchase over the phone or prospective donors into making immediate contributions. Explain to seniors that a legitimate marketer will accept a person's desire for written information about the products or charity and will gladly send such information to a prospective buyer or donor's home. * Payments are typically not picked up by a courier service. Telemarketing fraudsters often employ couriers to pick up payments. This is not the action of a reputable charity or business, and seniors should never agree to buy a product or donate money to any telemarketer who offers to send a courier to their home to pick up payment. * Money lost to a fraudulent telemarketer is likely lost forever. Men and women concerned about elderly friends or relatives being victimized by telemarketing fraud should explain to their loved ones that money lost in a telemarketing scam is not likely to be recovered. This should help highlight the importance of receiving official documentation from any telemarketers before buying a product or making a donation. If seniors are aware their money isn't likely to be recovered should it be going to a criminal, they are much less likely to make hasty decisions over the phone.

Curling and cookies Kam and Sam Mah, left, as well as Jim and Joan Currat are ready to serve cookies after a full day of floor curling at the Mirror Lake Centre. The next floor curling and cookie session is slated for the Mirror Lake Centre on July 9.

Low-income Alberta seniors will continue to have access to monthly income support through the Alberta Seniors' Benefit (ASB) program. The Alberta government is raising the qualifying income thresholds under the program to ensure provincial seniors’ benefits are not negatively affected because federal seniors’ benefits went up. Effective July 1, qualifying income thresholds in Alberta will increase $500 to $25,100 for a single senior and $800 for senior couples to $40,800. “This will have a positive impact on more than 151,000 low-income seniors who receive a monthly cash supplement through the province’s ASB program,” said Fred Horne, Minister of Health. “We are making sure that people getting the Alberta Seniors' Benefit are not affected by increases to federal income programs, which happen almost every year.” Seniors will be sent a letter in July advising them of their new eligibility for the 2012/13 benefit year. Applications for the ASB program are sent automatically to Albertans three months before they turn 65. In addition to applying for ASB, the application acts as gateway to enrollment for other seniors' financial assistance programs such as Dental and Optical Assistance for Seniors, Education Property Tax Assistance for Seniors and Special Needs Assistance for Seniors. Alberta’s benefits for seniors are among the highest and most generous in the country and the province’s income thresholds are among the highest in the country. These adjustments come into effect on July 1, the start of the new benefit year. For more information on the Alberta Seniors' Benefit program, visit the Alberta Health website at www.health. alberta.ca or call the Alberta Supports Contact Centre toll free in Alberta 1-877-644-9992, or in the Edmonton area call 780-6449992.

Floor curling, cookies served at the Mirror Lake By Murray Green The Mirror Lake Centre doesn't shut down for the summer. The Camrose Senior Floor Curling Club makes sure of that. The floor curling club keeps active year-round with Monday and Tuesday afternoon sessions of floor curling. "It is not only attracting our staunch regulars, but also a few folks from some of the other senior groups that shut down for the summer," said Helen Grant, club secretary. "You'd think with all of this exercise, some of us would be losing weight and getting in good shape." Helen said the great lunch

coordinators make sure that doesn't happen. "Kam and Sam Mah, and Joan and Jim Currant always ensure that the coffee and tea is always on and that cookies are available after the floor curling. We thank them for the extra work to keep the rest of us fat and happy," Helen said. "As you can tell, we do have lots of fun. Everyone is welcome to join us for a lot of laughs and maybe some great curling." A fun floor curling session will begin at noon on July 9. Curlers must throw with the opposite hand they normally curl with. A luncheon will follow.

FIGHT CLUB

In this adaptation of Chuck Palahniuk’s 1998 novel, Brad Pitt stars as Tyler Durden, a sociopath filled with anarchic rage, who organizes an underground organization of “fight clubs.” These clubs, in which young men with white collar jobs engage in no-holds-barred bouts, spread across the city. But Tyler has far more insidious plans — he enlists the aid of his unassertive friend, Jack (Edward Norton), to destroy conventional “society” through a deadly series of bombings. When Jack realizes the nightmarish and shocking truth, he fights to bring Tyler down.

Cornerstone Christian Academy in Kingman has launched a campaign to raise funds for the expansion of its facility. "We have already raised $500,000 but need to come up with an additional $500,000," said Cornerstone Christian Academy business manager Ruth Klassen. The expansion will add several new classrooms, an expanded library, kitchenette and lunch area, washroom facilities and change rooms for the gymnasium and more storage space. The school's administration offices will be renovated. "We will be adding 14,400 square feet of educational space to the existing school building," said Klassen. The Academy has not received any funding for the proposed capital improvements from either the Battle River School Division or Alberta Education. "Cornerstone Christian Academy operates as an alternative school within the BRSD, but Cornerstone maintains ownership of its land and building and is financially responsible for all maintenance, upgrades, expansions and decisions affecting its property," said Klassen. The blueprints will comply with the regulations and standards of Alberta Education. The Academy's capital campaign began in 2007 but was put on hold while talks with Battle River for Cornerstone to operate as an alternative Christian program within the division were negotiated. "Now that the partnership is in place the Cornerstone Society is eager to resume the campaign," said Klassen. "The time to build is now and we are enthusiastic about sod-turning this summer. The additional square footage provided by this expansion will enhance the educational offerings of Cornerstone Christian Academy." The theme for the campaign, "A Square Foot for a Rounded Education" captures the goal of Cornerstone: to provide a well-rounded education which excels in the Alberta curriculum while teaching Christian values and encouraging students to be good citizens actively involved in both church and community. "A single square foot of space may be purchased for $75," said Klassen. Donations to the Cornerstone Christian Academy of Camrose can be made by contacting Klassen at ccasociety@ gmail.com, or calling 780-6727197.

Diaper Drive wraps up

CCHS principal Jim Ofrim eats chocolate from a diaper in a noon event put on by students to wrap up the diaper drive. By Dan Jensen

The Rotary Interact Club at Camrose Composite High School wrapped up its second annual diaper drive with a fun event involving four teachers June 1. "We had them drink from a baby bottle and eat baby food," said Interact Club president Monika Thygesen. "It was good of the staff to participate." The Rotary Interact Club set up collection bins for new disposable diapers at Camrose churches and drug stores in the month of May. It also challenged the classes in Block C to collect diapers, with the incentive being a pizza party for the class that collected the most. All diapers were donated to the Learning Together ECD program, which provides quality early childhood development programming for preschool aged children of women attending the Learning Together Outreach Program at Chester Ronning School.

A study in Canada found 48 percent of women were dificient in Vitamin D despite taking supplements.

Don’t compromise your beauty regimen just because you’re busy.

Women are juggling much more today than in years past. Many women are balancing work, family, social obligations, and additional activities. This can leave little time for personal grooming. However, looking your best doesn’t require a lot of time or money. In fact, by focusing on a few areas, you can put your best face forward despite being under a time crunch. • Invest in a good haircut. Consult with a stylist who knows his or her stuff. Ask for recommendations on what cut will work for your facial shape, lifestyle and trends you desire. You want something that works for you and doesn’t require a lot of effort to achieve. For example, if you’re time-pressed and your ‘do’ requires 40 minutes of blow-drying every morning, it may not be practical for your situation. Work with your hair type instead of against it. Investing in a good cut is a beauty secret every woman should know. • Select dual-purpose products. Saving time can often mean using beauty products that serve more than one purpose. For example, a moisturizer that’s also a sunblock saves on the extra step of applying SPF. Some mineral powder products serve as a foundation and an oil-reducing finish coat. For women who want to skip a foundation, tinted moisturizers are also an option. • Play up your eyes. Bright eyes give the impression of being well-rested and healthy. If you spend time on anything in your beauty regimen, it should be adding some impact to your eyes, even if this just means using some mascara and applying a highlight under the brow line and in the corners of the eyes. Don’t forget to cover under-eye circles if they are a problem. • Don’t overlook your hands. Hands have a way of giving away your age. Many women who use age-defying products or enlist in the help of plastic surgery fail to realize that their hands can reveal their age. Always moisturize and care for your hands. Routine manicures can help tame cuticles and keep nails and hands in top form. Use sun protection on your hands to avoid wrinkling and age spots from sun exposure. • Whiten your teeth. Putting a fresh-face forward also involves having a great smile. There are many inexpensive, over-the-counter whitening products that can lighten the shade of your teeth dramatically. They can be used while you’re taking care of other tasks, such as laundry or making dinner, maximizing your time.

Great condo near downtown

Matthew Mayer By Murray Green

Are you tired of going up and down stairs and need a worryfree lifestyle? If so, condo living in the west-central part of the city is the answer. This low maintenance property is perfect as a rental unit or for the empty nester. The cosy bungalow-style unit near the downtown shopping amenities and walking trails is ideal for adult living. The front entrance leads you into an attractive, open living room and dining area with vaulted ceilings and beautiful carpet and linoleum flooring. A breakfast bar connects the dining area to the handy kitchen

that features plenty of cupboards and lots of counter space. The huge master bedroom offers space to move around and it has a large his and hers closet. A second good-sized bedroom can be used to suit your needs. The very large utility room is great for wash day, as well as providing storage space or it could be used as an office. A four piece bathroom completes the main level. A separate furnace and individual utility systems allow you to pay your own costs. A low condo fee of $50 per month covers the exterior insurance and contributions to the reserve fund. A side storage unit and a parking pad near the front

entrance makes this a handy place for getting around in. Recent upgrades include new shingles, fascia, soffits, eaves, downspouts and a fence. Included with the purchase are the fridge, stove, built-in dishwasher, washer, dryer, window coverings and storage unit. An open house at this impressive condo at 4904-54 Street will be held on Thursday, June 28 from 4 to 6 p.m. It is attractively priced to sell at $186,500.

Council reviews draft By Dan Jensen

A vision and concept for redevelopment of the neighbourhood north of the Augustana Campus was presented to Camrose City council for review June 18. The draft Augustana Area Redevelopment Plan reflects the desire of the community to preserve the neighbourhood's character while allowing the City to pro-actively plan for change. "It is a long term planning and urban design policy tool to guide and direct physical development," explained Douglas Olson, president of O2 Planning & Design, which was hired by the City last October to lead the Augustana Area Redevelopment Project. "It sets the vision for the community and provides policy direction for land use and development, public open space and streetscapes, and transportation and infrastructure." The draft was completed using data collected by O2 Planning and Design and the City of Camrose as well as input from residents who expressed concern regarding the perception that development intensification could change the character of the neighbourhood, traffic short-cutting through the neighbourhood, and university spill-over parking. They also expressed the need for public improvements, a desire for design controls, illegal suites, property maintenance and absentee landlords. "The neighbourhood vision, established through collaboration with a working group," said Olson, "was to create a compact, sustainable, walkable community, well defined and used green spaces, new infill development that is sensitive to the context and a range of housing choice." Olson told council the objective of the redevelopment strategy as it is being proposed is to support retention of existing open spaces and to reinforce single family as the predominant building type. He noted the plan's land use policies would encourage a diverse range of residential unit types with design guideline themes, while ensuring that all new units have private outdoor amenity space. He added that for duplex and townhouses the plan would be to articulate each dwelling so that it reads as its own unit. New front drive garages and curb cuts would not be permitted. One of the suggestions of the draft document was that a detailed design study examine potential traffic calming solutions in the area through more bulbed curbs. Another suggested that a parking study be completed to determine the need for parking permits. Olson said the redevelopment plan should be monitored every five years using a series of measurable indicators to help monitor the effectiveness of the policies. Council is expected to give first reading to the Augustana Area Redevelopment Plan document June 25. Second and third readings, as well as a public hearing, are scheduled to be held July 23.

Hladik hoping to set record straight with new book By Dan Jensen

Where does our food come from? Is it safe? Was it produced in a sustainable manner? Those are some of the questions answered by former Gwynne area farmer and current Association for Life-Wide Living of Alberta board member Maurice Hladik in his new book Demystifying Food from Farm to Fork. "It was written for people who appreciate food but would like to delve a little deeper into the issues that arise as food makes its journey from production to consumption," said Hladick. Demystifying Food from Farm to Fork grew from a collection of writings Hladik had put together in response to the "nonsense" he had been hearing and reading about the agriculture industry. "I wasn't really trying to write a book to start with but it was important for me to share what was really going on," he said. "I came to realize that the amount of knowledge most people had about the food industry didn't go much further than the supermarket." Demystifying Food from Farm to Fork covers topics ranging from genetically modified food and animal husbandry to questionable practices by organic farmers, and fish farming. Views and opinions presented are the result of extensive research, university education and personal experiences. "I don't expect all readers to agree with me when I wade into the controversies," he said, "but they should come away better informed on a host of topics that are core to the food industry of the 21st century." Hladick questions how

Hladik wrote his new book to correct some of the falsehoods he felt were being spread about the food industry.

much monitoring is done to ensure that the organic foods produced are really organic. In one bit of research he found that, during the first ten months of 2010, only 23 farmers that supply organic food to the United States food market were denied

certification from a private agency because of bad practices. "That indicated to me that either farmers are being unbelievably honest and meticulous in their farming methods or, more likely, that the oversight is a little bit lax," he said. "You

have to wonder if we are getting organic food, or whether it is something that just goes through the system with very little monitoring." Hladick feels something animal rights activists often overlook is the fact that farmers have a vested interest in making sure their animals receive proper care and are not stressed. "If you are raised on a farm you realize that every stockman really cares about the animals, first because that is the way they are and second because they know an animal that has not received the proper care is not going to gain weight or produce. The same thing goes for the drivers who deliver the livestock. If a driver can't deliver animals safely and without injury almost all the time he is going to lose his job. The whole industry, including the people in the slaughterhouses, are very careful not to cause undue stress or harm to the animals. It just makes economic sense." Hladick believes that, thanks to advanced practices like no till and advanced chemicals, it is possible for farmers to feed the world and do so in a reasonably sustainable manner. "There seems to be this concept that small farmers plying vegetables to the local market should be the backbone of agriculture, and that is a wonderful part of it, but in order to feed the world you have to use genetically modified plants. You have to use a balanced approach with the chemicals and the fertilizers. Thanks to what we are doing today, 16 per cent of the world's population is undernourished, compared to over 30 per cent sixty years ago." Hladick has received good

response to the book from reviewers in the short time it has been out. "I sold a couple hundred books in March but the promotion has really just started," he said. "The other day I had a radio interview with someone who is syndicated at 120 U.S. radio stations, who is going to put me on the air about a half dozen times over the course of a week." Hladick obtained degrees from the University of Alberta and the University of British Columbia after deciding that farming was his destiny and that he, alone, would carry on the family farming tradition. Upon graduation he joined the Canadian Foreign Service, where he first served in New Zealand and then West Germany as an agricultural attachĂŠ, and later in Beijing, Bangkok, Hong Kong and Seoul with a sizeable staff including those who focused on agricultural and food issues. At the same time he was on loan to Agriculture Canada as director general of the Grains and Oilseeds Marketing Bureau, which also had the designation as chief advisor to the government of Canada on international grains and oilseeds issues. His major activity over the last ten years has been to scout for large quantities of biomass, particularly wheat straw in Europe, Canada, and to a very large extent in the United States.

Camrose Lefthanders' Classic attracts 70 golfers By Dan Jensen

New Norway's Steven Williams recorded a par on the first playoff hole to win the 2012 Lefthanders' Classic at the Camrose Golf Course June 15. Williams entered the playoff on the tenth hole after finishing the regular round with a score of 73, the same as Sherwood Park's Bob Matheson. "He wrestled the championship away from Matheson, who was the winner in 2012," said tournament chair Lorne Broen. The tournament featured 70 golfers from several different parts of the province. "The number was down from 2011 and 2010 when we had 91 and 90 golfers respectively," said Broen. "We would have been happier if we had attracted a few more but we know that the tournaments are just not bringing out the number of golfers that they used to." The tournament was held earlier than the previous 23 Camrose Lefthanders' Classics in hopes of attracting more golfers before the start of summer vacations. "I don't think the fact that it was a couple weeks earlier made any difference in the attendance, although I don't know that for sure," said Broen. "I know we

lost a few teachers but you can't please everyone." Williams received a black jacket from Duff Layton's Men's Wear and a trophy for being tournament champion. Winners of the first through

ninth flights were: Bob Matheson, Sherwood Park, first flight, 73; Harold Reich, Bashaw, second flight, 74; Dennis Kololuk, Edmonton, third flight, 82; Kevin Broen, Calgary, fourth flight, 82; Don Rogers, Camrose, fifth

flight, 90; Myron Samycia, Sherwood Park, sixth flight, 85; Brian Northey, Camrose, seventh flight, 86; Ed Black, Edmonton, eighth flight, 96; and Doug Zarski, Camrose, ninth flight, 93. All flight winners received a

plaque from Zarski's Body Shop and a gift certificate from the Camrose Golf Course pro-shop. Second place winners in each flight received a gift certificate from the pro shop, while third place winners in each flight received a tournament shirt. The hole-in-one contest sponsored by McClellan Wheaton Chevrolet Buick GMC went without a winner. "It would have been nice if someone had been able to shoot a hole-in-one and win the car," said Broen. "One of these years someone is bound to get lucky." The winner of a $500 grocery voucher from Wildrose Coop was Ed Black. The Camrose Lefthanders' Classic tournament committee was pleased with the response it received from the golfers who attended. "We had quite a few of the golfers thank us for putting on a great event," said Broen. "They encouraged us to keep it going and not give up." Broen said the tournament committee will be reassessing the tournament over the coming months. "We will assess it to see what the future holds but there aren't any changes that are being planned at this point."

Murray Green, Camrose Booster Four-year-old Camrose resident Caleb Hawkins enjoyed pushing buttons in the ATCO Gas Energy Education Mobile at the company's 100 Days of Summer Centennial Tour on June 21 near the Max McLean Arena.

ATCO Gas brought its 100 Days of Summer celebration to Camrose June 21. The two-hour long summer event at Max McLean Arena featured a free community barbecue featuring refreshments from the Blue Flame Kitchen, children's activities, prize give-aways, and a theatrical production of He's Got The Pipes, a vaudeville-style live theatre show that tells the history of natural gas service in Alberta using music, comedy and song. 100 Days of Summer was a way for ATCO to say thanks to Camrose and area residents for the support it has received over the last century. "We're celebrating 100 years of providing safe natural gas service to Albertans," said ATCO Gas senior vice president and chief engineer Alan Dixon. "That's a significant milestone." The ATCO Gas 100 Days of Summer event is visiting approximately 50 communities across the province. A pinnacle celebration will take place July 15 at the closing grandstand show of the Calgary Stampede. The cauldron

atop the Calgary Tower will be lit to commemorate the flaring ceremony that took place in July, 1912, as natural gas was brought to the city of Calgary. ATCO Gas employees have committed to 100 Days of Caring by completing 100 community service projects. ATCO GAS senior vice president and general manager Bill Stephens said it is because of customers that ATCO marks a century of heating homes and warming communities in Alberta.

Grand Caravan The right ingredients for moving people and cargo By Dan Jensen

The 2012 Dodge Grand Caravan at Camrose Chrysler is a minivan with the driving dynamics of a performance sedan â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and a little bit of attitude. "Versatility doesn't mean that the experience has to be boring," said Camrose Chrysler sales manager Denis Mercier. "You can get behind the wheel and enjoy a driving experience once never thought possible in such a functional vehicle." Aggressive feel

Grand Caravan's design is intended to convey the dynamic driving nature of the vehicle. A front fascia that sports the Dodge signature "split-crosshair" grille and quad headlamps combine to give the face of the 2012 version an aggressive feel. A sculpted rear fascia and rear "ring of fire" LED taillamps completes the look from the front to the back. Grand Caravan's segment-exclusive Stown 'n Place roof rack system provides the convenience of crossbars without compromising aerodynamics, since they attach to the side rails when not in use. Both the power liftgate and the power sliding doors feature obstacle detection, which reverses the door's direction if an object is sensed in its path. Grand Caravan also boasts more Quiet Steel technology than any other minivan. This leading-edge noise- and vibration-reducing steel, along with other design cues, works to ensure a quiet cabin.

Performance

From the state-of-the art high-pressure die-cast aluminum block, VVT, sequential multiport fuel injection and high-flow intake and exhaust ports, the 3.6 litre Pentastar engine applies some of the most advanced automotive engine technologies. The result is an exceptional blend of high torque, fuel-efficiency, low emissions, and quiet ride. The only thing better than numbers like 283 horsepower and 260 lb.-ft. of torque is the engine's durability enhancing features, like an advanced oil filter system that helps eliminate oil spills and contributes to more environmentallyfriendly disposal with its incinderable filter element. The engine delivers highway mileage of 7.9 litres per 100 km and 12.2 litres per 100 km city, and a segmentexclusive fuel economizer feature that alters shift patterns to help improve real-world fuel efficiency. It's also Flex Fuel capable, offering the choice of using either gasoline or ethanol (E85) fuel, or any combination of the two. Nobody does it better

Open any of Grand Caravan's doors and immediately find comfort, luxury and superior craftsmanship at every turn. Well-appointed interior-design details include soft-touch surfaces, chrome accents, and musthave features intuitively placed for ease of driver and passenger use. The integrated instrument panel offers a unified look with touches of chrome around the climate controls, shifter and gauge cluster rings.

The LED-illuminated gauges are positioned for easy viewing and the steering wheel houses cruise and audio controls. The available segment-exclusive Super Console includes power outlets, cup holders, covered storage, and more, all within easy access to both firstand second-row passengers. The available Tri-Zone Automatic Temperature Control system keeps everyone comfortable via its electronic thermostats. The push of a button activates the available class-exclusive full-circumference heated steering wheel, keeping the driver's hands warm. When it comes to versatility, Grand Caravan's ingenuity takes a back seat to no one. Grand Caravan can carry up to seven people, an amazing amount of cargo, or any combination between, thanks to industry-exclusive Stow 'n Go. With 81 possible seating configurations, neither your cargo nor your crew will feel the squeeze. Shopping at home improvement or big box stores isn't a problem either. Simply stow all the seats into the floor to create 4,072 litres of cargo volume without ever having to remove a seat. Even everyday errands are made easier with Grand Caravan. The nine-inch deep in-floor storage bin behind the third row allows you to load and unload groceries with ease, without worrying about

The available segmentexclusive second- and third-row independent DVD entertainment system features nine-inch screens, two sets of wireless headphones, a remote, Mike Cuthbert and input jacks to accomCamrose Chrysler modate gaming and video possibilities during long trips to virtually eliminate the "are we there yet?" questions from the passengers. Best of all, the screens can work independently, with one showing a movie while the other is used for video games. The video system can be operated from either the rear seat entertainment unit or the radio head unit. Whether your passengers are watching a DVD or listening to your favourite music, everyone will appreciate the available nine-speaker Infinity sound system with an 11-channel amplifier that serves up 506 watts of power. An eight-inch, two-channel, dual-voice coil subwoofer means superb quality surround sound for everyone. Safety

In adverse weather conditions, the standard Electronic Stability Control with Electronic Brake Assist works with an advanced all-speed traction control system to help the driver maintain vehicle directional stability and limit oversteering or understeering. Electronic Brake Assist detects conditions when maximum force is needed for optimum stopping power. A new driver's inflatable knee blocker helps reduce injuries to lower extremities on impact with the dashboard and helps properly position the driver in relation to the front air bags. The Blind Spot Monitoring System continually monitors blind zones on either side of the vehicle. When an object is detected, an indicator light illuminates in the appropriate exterior mirror and an optional audible notification is provided.

Vikings add former Weyburn defenceman Submitted The University of Alberta, Augustana Vikings men’s hockey program announced that Dylan Coupal of Regina, Saskatchewan, has accepted a scholarship to Augustana to play for the Vikings, who are the defending Alberta Colleges Athletic Conference champions. Coupal is a 6’4”, 205 lb. defenseman who graduated from the Weyburn Red Wings, the SJHL finalists this past season. “I am very pleased and proud of the addition of Dylan Coupal to our Vikings' hockey program, especially when you consider the experience he brings from his time playing for coach Dwight McMillan with the storied Red Wings junior-A club,” said Vikings' coach Blaine Gusdal. “I have the utmost respect for Dwight and his coaching staff in Weyburn and there is no doubt that Dylan has been well-groomed and mentored for this next stage of his hockey career. His size, skating ability, and skill-set will be very valuable to our team’s goals moving forward.” Planning on entering the

faculty of science, Coupal, an honor-roll student, is coming off his 20-year-old season in Weyburn where he played in 57 games, scoring five goals and adding 10 assists for 15 points from the blue line. Dylan then added a goal and five assists over 17 playoff games en route to the finals. The extensive playoff run and experience brought to a close Coupal’s three-year junior career in Saskatchewan. On why the Regina native made his decision, Coupal explains, “What first got me interested in Augustana was the ability to obtain a University of Alberta degree. The U of A degree, combined with the success of the men’s hockey program and the quality of the school, made me want to see Camrose and the campus first hand. "I visited Camrose and got a chance to see the city, campus and rink. I was able to meet with Coach Gusdal and some of the players from the team. I was so impressed with everything that I knew I wanted to come to Camrose in September to enjoy, and excel in both hockey and my academics.”

Railway Station plans busy summer

SPECIAL S I O A N C C S O Jeff and Sharon Banack, along with Calvin and Suzette Herder invite you to celebrate the upcoming marriange of their children, Emily Banack and Logan Herder on July 7, 2012. Open House and Dance 8:30 pm, Rosalind Hall

There's always lots to see and do at the Camrose Railway Station.

With the bustling school program season coming to an end, volunteers and summer staff at the Camrose Railway Station now look forward to an eventful summer season. Beginning Saturday, June 30, the Station Teahouse will be serving homemade desserts on Saturdays, 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Homemade and scrumptious, the desserts are prepared from prairie heritage recipes. Please drop in for a muffin, cinnamon bun, sundae or dessert of the week.

In past years full meals were served at the Station on Saturdays. Long time volunteer Glenys Smith regrets that the decision had to be made not to continue (with full meals). The number of volunteers needed to make it work was just too overwhelming. Reducing the menu to include desserts and beverages permits Station volunteers to manage the season better. Summer students will be freed up to concentrate more on the historical

interpretation of the Station, of early railway development and prairie settlement and greeting visitors. The Camrose Railway Station Museum and Park is open Tuesday to Saturday, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Self-serve beverage and homemade cookies are available weekdays; Saturday’s menu includes several dessert choices. Relax on the Station platform and watch the trains roll by, or enjoy our wonderful tearoom.

Wishes for a happy Canada Day from Crowfoot MP Kevin Sorenson Kevin Sorenson, M.P., Crowfoot

On this Canada Day, I extend greetings to you and your family from the Honourable Stephen Harper, Prime Minister, and from your Canadian government, as well as my personal greetings, and that of my family. It is very important that as Canadians, we come together every July 1st and reflect upon what makes our society great, and what makes our country the envy of the world. It is important to teach our children about our heritage so they can more fully appreciate the wealth and diversity of our culture and understand our pride in being Canadian. Canada’s successes are the visions and shared values of our ancestors – our grandparents and great grandparents who came here and settled this land. Our Canada, is the result of the accomplishments of the generations that came before us – mostly from Europe – whose hard work, determination and commitment have shaped the great country that we enjoy today. Over the past 145 years, our country has grown by leaps and bounds. We are blessed with a beautiful and peaceful country. I hope that on July 1st each year everyone renews

Kevin Sorenson

their pledge to building an even better Canada – one that continues to be the best place to be in the world. All across our Crowfoot constituency, Canada Day is celebrated. It is a day to enjoy fun and entertainment as we commemorate the remarkable history of our society. Canada Day is our annual opportunity to gather in our communities, from coast to coast to coast, and to proudly celebrate all we have in common. As much as it is a time of celebration, Canada Day is also a time of thanks. We are thankful for the history that has led us to this day. This year, we celebrate the 60th Anniversary of the Reign of Her Majesty Queen Eliza-

beth II. Many monumental events are a part of Her historic reign, but we will always celebrate the repatriation of the Canadian Constitution and the coming into full status as the nation of Canada that occurred during the reign of Queen Elizabeth. Her Majesty has always demonstrated great affection and support for Canada. This year, we celebrate the 200th anniversary of the War of 1812. Under leaders like Major-General Isaac Brock, Lieutenant-Colonel Charles de Salaberry and aboriginal leaders like Chief Tecumseh, the effort of the United States to take over Canada were thwarted; the current Canada-US border was established; and Canada proved its ability to be a nation. So, from my family to yours: Happy Anniversary to Queen Elizabeth! Thanks to our military past and present who protect and preserve our great country. And most important of all, HAPPY BIRTHDAY CANADA!

“I am very pleased and proud of the addition of Dylan Coupal to our Vikings' hockey program, especially when you consider the experience he brings from his time playing for coach Dwight McMillan with the storied Red Wings junior-A club,” said Vikings' coach Blaine Gusdal. “I have the utmost respect for Dwight and his coaching staff in Weyburn and there is no doubt that Dylan has been well-groomed and mentored for

this next stage of his hockey career. His size, skating ability, and skill-set will be very valuable to our team’s goals moving forward.” Planning on entering the faculty of science, Coupal, an honor-roll student, is coming off his 20-year-old season in Weyburn where he played in 57 games, scoring five goals and adding 10 assists for 15 points from the blue line. Dylan then added a goal and five assists over 17 playoff

games en route to the finals. The extensive playoff run and experience brought to a close Coupal’s three-year junior career in Saskatchewan. On why the Regina native made his decision, Coupal explains, “What first got me interested in Augustana was the ability to obtain a University of Alberta degree. The U of A degree, combined with the success of the men’s hockey program and the quality of the school, made me

want to see Camrose and the campus first hand. I visited Camrose and got a chance to see the city, campus and rink. I was able to meet with Coach Gusdal and some of the players from the team. I was so impressed with everything that I knew I wanted to come to Camrose in September to enjoy, and excel in both hockey and my academics.”

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.

LOOKING FOR A SUMMER CAMP? – Try Bar Harbour Camp, just outside Stettler on Buffalo Lake. Camps for ages 6 - 17. Accredited. Good fun, good friends, good food.

No gifts please.

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.

Pure Hockey camp builds on success By Murray Green

Pure Hockey Consulting will be running two one-week summer sessions on improving hockey skills. The camp goes from July 30 to August 3 and from August 6 to 10. Extra sessions about defence and goal-scoring will be held the weekend of August 4 and 5. "Last year was very successful and we had a lot of positive feedback," said Tim Green, Pure Hockey director. "The players had a lot of fun and the instructors enjoyed it too." To avoid disappointment, players are asked to register early. "Our second week was full last year and we don't want to go over 28 players on the ice at the same time. This year we have expanded to novice, as well as atom, peewee, bantam and midget. We didn't have the ice available last year. We want to start with younger players and get them going with good habits, and having fun." Pure Hockey instructors mix power skating with parachute resistance skating and the dreaded task is now a fun-filled event. The popular instructors will be back again this year. Josh Green of the Edmonton Oilers, former Calgary Flames' Brennan Evans and Justin Taylor, Tylor Keller, who played with both the Camrose Kodiaks and the Augustana Vikings, and Tim Green (a former Kodiak and Columbus Cottonmouths player) will be the instructors. Richard Petiot of the Tampa Bay Lightning and Jason Chimera of the Washington Capitals or other players may appear as guest coaches. "Josh knows a lot of players and he may bring out some guests as a surprise," said Tim. "It's good to have guys from the Kodiaks and Vikings coaching with us and giving something back to the community." The Pure Hockey program has been specifically designed by past and present professional hockey players to give you the edge you need to elevate your game. "Being at your very best to start the season starts in the summer. Pure Hockey's professional staff will give you the tools and the work ethic necessary to compete at your highest level and achieve success," said Josh. The Pure Hockey Training System has been developed by our experienced instructors to ensure you start training camp in mid-season form. "We take registrations right up to the camp date, but keep in mind some may fill up in advance," Tim said. "Our combination of focused skills, skating and conditioning instruction will take your game to the next level." For camp details or to register visit purehockey.ca or call 780563-1010.
