City deploying staff to Slave Lake By Dan Jensen

City council has approved the deployment of four qualified public works staff to Slave Lake to help that town rebuild its infrastructure following the recent devastating fires that destroyed approximately 400 homes, several businesses and some civic facilities. The staff will be selected by the Town of Slave Lake to work on a rotational basis, each for a maximum of five days. "The City of Camrose will continue to pay the employees

while they are serving in this capacity," said engineering services general manager Elvis Riou in making a recommendation to council June 27. Travel, food and accommodation costs will be covered by the Town of Slave Lake. The estimated cost to the City of Camrose, assuming the four employees work a 12-hour day for five days, is around $11,000, including wages, overtime and benefits. "Administration supports this initiative, which will gener-

ate goodwill and far outweigh the potential that some tasks in Camrose may not get completed by these employees," said Riou. Councillor John Howard said the money will be well spent considering the difficulties faced by Slave Lake. "It is a neighbourly thing to do. I would hope that other communities would do the same for us." Mayor Marshall Chalmers said the assistance of public works professionals from other communities is exactly what Slave Lake needs at this time.

BVJ contributes $16.2 million to provincial economy By Dan Jensen

The 2010 Big Valley Jamboree added $16.2 million to the provincial economy according to a report prepared by Econometric Research Ltd. for Alberta Tourism Parks and Recreation. "That is huge when you consider it is a four-day event," said Tourism Parks and Recreation branch director M.S. (Moe) Rehemtulla following the presentation of the report at the CRE by Econometrics Research Ltd.'s Dr. A.A. Kubursi June 27. "It (Big Valley Jamboree) is a huge economic benefactor here for Camrose and for the province." Reports on the Indy car races in Edmonton show an economic impact ranging from $25 million to $83 million, depending on the model used. Total expenditures

The report also showed that Big Valley Jamboree initial expenditures totalling $14.5 million supported wages and salaries of $9.5 million and, either directly or indirectly, sustained 236 full-time equivalent jobs. "The employment impacts of the industry," states the report, "are widely spread over almost all industries through extensive forward and backward linkages that the festival maintains in Alberta." Tax revenues generated for the federal, provincial and local governments totalled $5.8 million. The federal government col-

lected $3.9 million in tax revenues, the provincial government $1.4 million and local governments $565,000. Federal taxes included personal income tax, goods and services taxes, corporate profit taxes, employment insurance, and CPP contributions. "I guess the biggest surprise probably from the report was the significant money generated through taxation, particularly for the federal government," said Alberta Tourism Parks and Recreation deputy minister D.R. Bob Scott. "It would be nice if those numbers were reversed." Operational expenditures required to support and sustain the festival in Camrose totalled $5.9 million, with the largest expenditure item being advertising and travel of $2.5 million. Other large expenditure items included wages and salaries of $488,000, insurance and finance costs of $693,000, other services of $991,000 and professional services of $435,000. "An increase of $6.8 million in Alberta's GDP is attributed to operational expenditures," states the report. The total visitor expenditures exclusive of corporate sponsors exceeded $7.8 million, most of which ($7.3 million) was made by Albertans. Visitors from outside of Alberta spent $557,000 and corporate sponsors spent $806,000. Continued on page 5

Approval in principle for Performing Arts Centre By Dan Jensen

cillor Max Lindstrand, who put the motion on the floor. "Also, we need more flesh on the bones when it comes to details about the operating agreement so we know how the local groups are going to be able to access the facility and at what cost." The total contribution from the City of Camrose, as outlined in the approval, is $12.75 million, with $4.5 million coming from Municipal Sustainability Initiative (MSI) funds, $4 million from debenture and up to $4.25 million in short term funding. Camrose County will provide $1 million towards the cost, while the University of Alberta will provide $750,000. The provincial government has already provided a grant of Conditions $3.5 million.

"We really do need a performing arts centre," said Camrose Arts Society vice president Crystal Ozment. "There is a great economic value to having the arts centre." LeRoy Johnson expressed appreciation to council and others for all the work it has done on the centre to date. "I just want to commend and thank the council tonight for sticking with this project. "Many of us have worked on it for a long time."

ing expenses, at least from some of the operating expenses that might be brought forward," said councillor John Howard. Augustana dean Roger Epp has indicated that the University of Alberta will do its best to secure lights on funding for the centre. Councillor Lindstrand said the motion to give approval in principle is a go-forward one and forces council's hand to get going on the details. "We have two capital projects that have been identified as top priorities and you can certainly tell by the support of our audience that there is a strong level of support for the performing arts centre in our community." Councillor Howard noted that while the operating agreement should not take that much longer to complete, he still has a few concerns about any operating cost shortfalls becoming the responsibility of the City of Camrose. That, he said, is not in keeping with an earlier report that indicated the City would set a grant limit and cap. Councillor Brandon Blatz expressed concern about whether the conditions in the motion could stop the project going forward. "I really do not want to see this project go down because we are not willing to make a commitment," he said. "I think what has been missing on the City's part for some time has simply been the commitment that yes, we are ready to step off the curb

and take that leap of faith and be the visionaries that we can be." University of Alberta senior project manager Michael Madsen said he does not have any problems with Council setting a maximum amount for its contribution to the project. "I don't see that as an issue to proceeding with the project," he said. "As long as we have a budget in front of us with an estimate that is the best of our ability." Councillor Daryl Shillington said council is being visionary with the project. "It (the performing arts centre) is spelled out in our municipal sustainability plan, and it is defined in our vision. It has been a long process and we are being good stewards of the taxes we are collecting. It will be an economic drawing card for our community." Madsen said that while the City of Camrose may have missed the absolute lowest peak in terms of construction costs, now is as good a time as any to proceed. "We are seeing a lot of fluctuations right now. We (the University of Alberta) had a major tender close here on campus just in the February or March time frame. The budget for the project was in the $72 to $74 million range and the tenders all came in between the $52 to $56 million range. That was quite a surprise for us, but at the same time, we have seen smaller tenders come

in higher. It is really dynamic right at the moment. We are seeing impacts on the cost of steel and concrete and the price of oil is working its way through the stream." Councillor Gerry Galenza said City council has been discussing the performing arts centre since 2005 or 2006, and that the time has come to make a decision. "I think Dr. Epp (University of Alberta Augustana dean) put it quite bluntly to us in a meeting that this is our chance to make a difference. We are fairly close to having the shovel in the ground and if we let this opportunity slip it may never surface for another ten years or so because the university has other priorities and things they are looking at." Madsen said the University of Alberta is looking at being able to call for tenders in six months time, so that the first shovel will be able to go into the ground at the U of A Augustana campus by next spring. Councillor Lindstrand concluded discussions when he noted that the performing arts have been neglected in Camrose for a long time. "This is another step to add to the facilities we have in our community," he said. "We are quite prepared to subsidize lots of things in our community, including swimming pools and skating rinks and so on, and we certainly should be prepared to subsidize the arts as well."

Removal of trees Poplar bore infestation is making it necessary to remove another fifteen columnar poplar trees in the city of Camrose. The City of Camrose Parks Department will be removing the trees in the centre median on 48 Avenue East of 36 Street due to poplar bore infestation. Thirtyfive trees were removed along Parkview Drive in the summer of 2010 and parks staff have been monitoring trees in all areas of the city since then. This is the first infestation since then that has required removal of trees. Parks Director Chris Clarkson stated, “After inspection of the columnar poplar trees it is necessary to remove fifteen of the trees in this area. Removal will begin in the very near future.” Citizens are encouraged to check their own trees for infestations. Signs include fading foliage, swollen areas on trunks and larger branches, broken, dead or dying branches, dead patches of bark that are often cracked and oozing sap and sawdust at the base of the tree. For information on the poplar borer visit the Natural Resources Canada website at http://imfc. cfl.scf.rncan.gc.ca/insecte-insecteng.asp?geID=991 If citizens notice infestation in city trees, or for more information, please contact Community Services at 780-672-9195.

The total expenditures at the Jamboree from within Camrose's 25 km radius was $383,000. Methodology

The report on the economic impact of Big Valley Jamboree was based partly on results of interviews conducted by Infact Research at the 2010 event, in which music fans were asked to estimate their expenditures. "The people we contracted went into the audiences and collected the information electronically," said Scott. "We wanted to make sure that all the information was customized to this event and was not a projection from any other event in the province." The analysis by Econometric Research Ltd. of the economic contributions of the festival on the Alberta economy focused particularly on the contributions of the tourism flows and new money to the region and Alberta. The major focus was Alberta's gross domestic provincial product, provincial employment, wages and salaries supported by the festival in the province, tax base, and tourism base. "This particular model that we use is accredited by both the federal treasury board and the provincial government treasury board," said Scott. "Dr. Kubursi has an excellent reputation not just across the country but across the world." Big Valley Jamboree is the largest, most prominent annual gathering of country music artists in the region. The Canadian Country Music Association has voted the Big Valley Jamboree as Canada's Country Music Event of the Year in 2001, 2004, 2006 and 2009.

Prayer breakfast well attended Around 130 people gathered Saturday morning, June 25, to commemorate the first Mayor’s Prayer Breakfast at the Norsemen Inn. The event was co-hosted with the Camrose Ministerial Association. Keynote speaker Ken Rostad inspired everyone as he talked about his life’s journey

and the hardships that he has encountered and how the guidance of his Lord and Saviour upheld him through these difficult times. The crowd was uplifted by the outstanding musical performance by Brian Dumont accompanied by Valerie Krushel.

“It was a great way to start the day and I can definitely see the Mayor’s Prayer Breakfast becoming an annual event of fellowship and celebration,” said Mayor Chalmers. "It was great to recognize the excellent work the Camrose Ministerial Association contributes to our community.”

Charlie Killam, Camrose beginner bands rate superior Submitted

It’s no secret that school band is alive and well in Camrose. At the upper Elementary and Junior High School level, Bob Bailey has consistently directed concert bands to Superior status over the years at the annual provincial festival (Alberta Band Association Festival of Bands) in Red Deer. In May Mr. Bailey entered three groups to the ABA Festival of Bands – the Charlie Killam Grade 7 and Grade 8 Concert Bands, and the Camrose Grade 5/6 Beginner Band (assisted by Mr. Tom Spila and Mr. Norm Skretting). The Charlie Killam Grade 7 Concert Band came home with a

Superior Award. The Charlie Killam Grade 8 Concert Band came close, having been awarded an overall rating of Excellent Plus, along with a Superior rating for their sightreading skills. The Camrose Grades 5/6 Beginner Band were also selected to receive the Superior Award. The Camrose Grades 5/6 Beginner Band is comprised of beginner band students from Chester Ronning, Jack Stuart, Sparling, and École Sifton Schools. Those beginners who are interested in choosing band as an option in Grade 7, and who have made a good effort in their band classes are recommended by their band teacher to the Camrose

Grades 5/6 Concert Band. While the students in this ensemble work on the repertoire for the group in their own band classes with their individual teachers, much of the work and polishing is done in extra-curricular after-school rehearsals under the baton of Mr. Bailey, with much assistance by Mr. Spila and Mr. Skretting. The collaboration with local band teachers was initiated by Mr. Bailey quite a few years ago, and has proved to be an enjoyable and rewarding one. The beginner band program in the public schools in Camrose is an important one as that is where budding instrumentalists get their start and develop the building

blocks of a good musician. A Superior rating is testament that these students are receiving excellent instruction. A Superior Award is the highest honour given at the Festival and reserved for those few bands who perform beyond expectations for their level, as adjudicated by highly ranked band educators and professionals from universities in the USA and Canada. The ABA Festival of Bands is an annual Festival that is heavily attended by bands throughout Alberta, and draws bands also from B.C., Saskatchewan, and the northern USA. Mr. Bailey, his students and their parents, are grate-

ful that the administrations of Charlie Killam School and its elementary feeder schools, have been so supportive of their music programs. Especially in light of these economic times, their commitment to the value of music as a crucial piece of their students’ overall education and development is commendable. It would seem they are aware of the overwhelming results of research that concludes that the study of music strengthens students’ academic performance, and recognize the intrinsic value of music in and of itself. Without this support, Superior Awards are much less likely, indeed attendance at Festivals is often not even possible.

St. Mary's Hospital chapel construction begins this fall By Murray Green

CENTRAL AGENCIES STARTS CAMPAIGN

Covenant Health St. Mary's Hospital Camrose executive director Cherylyn Antymniuk, left, accepts $5,000 from Central Agencies owners Betty, James and Norm Mayer with St. Mary's Hospital Foundation chair John Howard. The Mayers originally donated $10,000 to make it $15,000 in two separate donations. Construction of a new chapel will begin in late September. Missing is Valerie Mayer.

Covenant Health St. Mary's Hospital in Camrose will begin construction of a new chapel in late September. The $640,000 project became a reality when the St. Mary's Hospital Foundation reached over half way in the fundraising goal. The chapel project has raised $339,442 by mid-June. "St. Mary's Hospital and our foundation board members have placed the chapel project as a priority and therefore infused the remaining amount of money to move forward with the chapel project," said Foundation board chair John Howard. "Our Foundation board intends to continue fund-raising efforts during the construction of the chapel to reimburse the St. Mary's Hos-

pital Foundation. It made sense for us to lend them the money to move the project forward." Central Agencies owners Betty and Norm Mayer, and Valerie and James Mayer, donated an additional $5,000 to start the fund-raising to pay back the loan. The Mayers originally donated $10,000 to make it $15,000 in two separate donations. "The Mayers have been big supporters of the hospital projects and the facility and we are thankful for that," added John Howard. He hopes the construction starts in September so it can be closed in before the snow flies. "Ideally, I'd like to see the chapel open on Easter next spring. That might be wishful thinking on my part."

Parliamentary Report Kevin Sorenson, Member of Parliament, Crowfoot Constituency Happy Canada Day!

Members of Parliament returned to their constituencies to celebrate Canada’s 144th birthday July 1. Throughout our large riding numerous communities organized events to commemorate Canada Day. My family and I were in Drumheller, Strathmore, Donalda, and spent the evening in Camrose. I brought greetings and birthday wishes to everyone on behalf of our Prime Minister, the Right Honourable Stephen Harper and the Government of Canada. Since the earliest days of our history, Canada has been a land of promise. Today, we celebrate our country’s achievements. All across Canada, our celebration brought us together and strengthened our sense of community. On Canada Day, Canadians young and old teach and learn about the significance of the citizenship we all share. In doing so, communities across our country are showcasing our symbols; our identities; our traditions; and, the talent of our local artists. As a nation, we have good reason to be proud and to express our pride – loud and clear. We can be proud of the peaceful way we live. Citizens of Canada enjoy freedom. We respect each other – from coast to coast to coast. We benefit from our differences in our large geographic territory, and when we come together, our differences bring us strength. Our great nation was built by previous generations of Canadians. Together, we try to build on Canada’s past achievements. We work to protect Canada’s accomplishments and standards and provide for future generations of Canadians. Canada was one of the last nations to be affected by the recent global recession. Canada was one of the first nations to emerge from it. In the midst of the economic crisis, many nations envied Canada and the strength and integrity of our economy. In 2011, we have seen Middle Eastern and African nations striving to secure the very core values that Canadians have also fought and died for: freedom; democracy; and the rule of law. Canadians have built on these values and created a nation that qualifies to be a member of the G-8 group of nations. We embrace our role working with our allies and partners in the international community. On Canada Day, we celebrated our remarkable history and the bright outlook for our country’s future. Throughout the country, we have also built prosperous communities that are enriched by the hard work and contributions of our citizens who are ready to meet the challenges of our century.

Camrose and area great for exploring By Dan Jensen

You never have to look very hard for interesting things to see and do in Camrose and Camrose County. That's the message Camrose Chamber of Commerce Visitor Information Centre tourism consultants Erin Langager, Kara Sorenson and Krystle Pederson were sharing last week as they watched Mayor Marshall Chalmers proclaim July 11 to 15 as Be a Tourist In Your Own Town Week. "We have a lot of attractions here that we are hoping that the people of this area will want to explore this summer," said Pederson. "It's just a matter of creating more awareness." The Visitor Information Centre is equipped with a large number of resources to help those who are looking for something to do, whether it is catching a ride on the Mirror Lake Express, visiting the Camrose museums, walking on the beautiful Camrose trails, or exploring the historic downtown area. The centre is also helping to promote the Canadian Northern Society's first-ever Prairie Fun Days, a self-guided driving tour of Camrose County August 20. "The Mirror Lake Express train ride is a great thing to do for families but there are still a lot of people who don't know about it," said Langager.

Watching as Mayor Marshall Chalmers proclaimed Be a Tourist in Your Own Town Week at the Camrose and District Centennial Museum's schoolhouse were: (left to right) Erin Langager, Kara Sorenson and Krystle Pederson.

Be a Tourist In Your Own Town Week will kick off at Bill Fowler Centre at 5 p.m., Tuesday, July 12, with Mirror Lake Express train rides. and a bar-

becue. "We're going to be giving away coupons to area attractions," said Langager. A geo caching demonstration will be provided at the centre

from 1:30 to 3:30, Wednesday, July 13. "We rent GPS devices for geo caching at the visitor information centre," said Pederson.

"You use them and it is like going on a real-life treasure hunt." The Mirror Lake Express train will run from 5:30 to dusk Thursday, July 14. The Be a Tourist In Your Own Town Week will provide an opportunity to win prizes. A Camrose colouring contest will run from July 11 to 23, while a Discover Camrose contest, July 11 to 23, will be a chance to learn secrets about Camrose you never knew existed. A Photo Scavenger Hunt will begin July 11 and conclude August 9. "We're encouraging people to collect unique pictures from Camrose and surrounding areas based on a scavenger list," said Pederson. Scavenger hunt lists will be available at the Camrose Chamber of Commerce office in early July. Camrose mayor Marshall Chalmers is encouraging all Camrosians to explore their community, as well as to welcome visitors with open arms. "We always want to show off our city and this is the best time of the year to do that," said Chalmers. Anyone interested in finding out more about what there is to do in Camrose and area and Be a Tourist in Your Own Town Week is encouraged to call the Visitor Information Centre at 780-6724217.

Bawlf student provides input on new school By Dan Jensen

Nicki Risk has some definite ideas on what she would like to see in the new Bawlf School. In particular, she would like to see the non-athletic students have a designated place to work out without having to play basketball. "I was really pulling for that," she said. Risk, who will be going into Grade 10 this September, was one of 20 students from across the province who were chosen to meet with the Ministers of Infrastructure and Education June 23 to discuss "schools for the future." "Each school division that is having a new school built was asked to send a representative," said Battle River School Division communications coordinator Diane Hutchinson. Risk is a well-rounded student who has shown that she is very articulate and has leadership qualities. "I genuinely care about the school, which is pretty nerdy, but is probably why I was picked," she said. Students spent a significant portion of the day brainstorming recommendations for future schools. One of the biggest discussions was on libraries and whether they should be open to the public. "We talked about traditional books versus technology," said Risk. "My message to them in that area was that I would hate to see books go but that they (libraries) should be open to the public because we need more community involvement in our schools." Near the end of the day students had the opportunity to work

Bawlf School student Nicki Risk.

in separate groups with architects in building and designing a new school, using foam cutouts for the gyms and classrooms. Key ideas put forward included open areas, multi use classrooms, pod designed classroom arrangements to eliminate the need for long hallways and reduce congestion, community access to schools and wrap-around services, technology access, and the need for media production rooms versus computer labs. "Although each school was different it was amazing to hear how their (students') plans share common key elements," said Diana White, principal at Bawlf School.

Students learned that the way a school is designed affects the way students interact with one another and with their teachers, and ultimately, how they learn and grow. Education Minister Dave Hancock said schools of the future must be adaptable buildings that work for everyone who uses them. Risk said the fact the Bawlf School is getting a new school in three years made her think carefully about what she was saying at the session. "It really made me think about the ideas that I was presenting." BRSD superintendent Dr.

other school divisions have with their new schools, simply because Bawlf School will need to accommodate students all the way from kindergarten to Grade 12. The new school is expected to have a permanent core of approximately 3,000 square metres, with modulars that are attached. "From what I have heard from my colleagues and friends in Edmonton who have schools like this, it (construction) is really kind of seamless, and you can't tell that they (modulars) are not part of the permanent structure," he said. "I think they have come a long way actually in what that looks like." BRSD is currently seeking answers on whether the demolition of the existing school will be included in the projected costs, and whether there is a possibility that some parts of the existing school, mainly the Larry Payne said students who gym, can be saved and be used by the community. were at the sessions will prob"We are having some disably have another opportunity cussions with community to provide input to the governgroups about that," said Dr. ment before the construction goes ahead. He noted, however, Payne. "Trying to save that that the construction will not be increases the demolition costs." The Bawlf School has anything like the CCHS modalways been important to the ernization, for example, where Risk family.

The fund-raiser that was organized to help me be able to travel to Costa Mesa, California, for the new CCSVI treatment for MS, took place at the Bailey Theatre last Saturday (June 25th) and was a truly magical night. I didn't expect that so many people would be there! There were grandparents and children and people of every age in between that enjoyed Garvin’s exceptionally delicious buffet and applauded the local and fabulous entertainers. Nor did I expect that we would raise as much money as we did! I now have over $12,000 to put towards the cost of my surgery. Being the recipient of fundraising efforts is a very humbling experience. At first it made me uncomfortable, but then I started to see how much people really wanted to help, in whatever way they could. I can’t say thank you enough to all the people (and businesses) that so generously gave their time, expertise and/or monetary donations. Every contribution made the whole event possible, successful and very special to me. All night I felt (and still feel) surrounded by a wonderful community of people who care. Thank you so much for the hope you have all given me. I will be traveling to Costa Mesa the week of August 8th, and will be carrying all your good thoughts and wishes with me. Deborah Morgan Camrose

PEN POINTS by Berdie Fowler

Smile! You're a tourist attraction. Anyone can be a tourist attraction, All one has to do is smile and be kind and helpful to a visitor in need of information and/or a service. Anyone can do that, even an individual just walking up the street can be helpful to a stranger looking for an address. The reward for treating a visitor well is cumulatively tremendous in terms of the goodwill, economic and social benefits to a community. People travel for various reasons such as rest and relaxation, to visit family and friends, and to learn and discover. They also travel for professional and trades services, as well as for entertainment. On the front lines are staff at information centres, gas stations, hotels, restaurants, and retail outlets. Whatever the reason a visitor comes to our community, his or her satisfaction and desire to return will depend almost entirely on the hospitality and quality of service to which he or she has been treated on his or her first visit. Tourism is important in Alberta, being one of the biggest industries in the province along with energy and agriculture. It generates more than $5 billion in annual revenue and employs more than 103,000 persons. According to Alberta’s Economic Development Report, Calgary and Edmonton host over four million visitors a year and Banff, Jasper, and the Rocky Mountains are visited by three million persons per year. Some 650,000 tourists visit Drumheller (designated the Dinosaur Capital of the World) and the world-class Royal Turrell Museum of Palaeontology. Camrose may not have a world class attraction but it does have a share of visitor stoppers. The annual Big Valley Jamboree in Camrose was named Canada's Country Music Event of the Year in 2001, 2004, 2006 and again in 2009. Keep in mind that the definition of a tourist is any visitor who comes for any reason. The fact that our community is a regional centre for extended health services, educational opportunities from kindergarten to university degrees, and various government services is our biggest drawing card. Numerous campgrounds, lakes and parks in the area attract campers and those who love fishing. The Prairie Railway Excursion attracts by offering an entertaining taste of the Old West, as do points on the Boom Town Trail. Rural golf courses entice urbanites who want a whiff of fresh air without going afar. The information centre at the Camrose Chamber of Commerce office is a great source of local information for visitors. There is no question that the new Sport Development Centre in Camrose has attracted oodles of significant events, along with their entourages and spectators. And now, just last week, City council took a significant leap forward with plans to develop a performing arts centre – a collaborative effort involving Camrose City, Camrose County, and the University of Alberta Augustana Campus. It, too, will have the potential to attract students for performing arts training and bus loads of visitors to view performances. If Rosebud in Alberta can do it, or Stratford in Ontario can do it, why not Camrose? It won’t happen overnight but the potential is certainly there. It’s worth repeating: Smile! You’re a tourist attraction. Any one of us can be helpful and pleasant to a visitor. The visitor who leaves satisfied and happy will tell others and will come back. Tourist dollars, which circulate about seven times, provide employment. That’s ample reason to smile and be nice.

Former Camrose Kodiaks' forward Kenny Bradley doesn't have far to move. He is just switching dressing rooms at the Edgeworth Centre. Kenny will be joining the University of Alberta, Augustana Campus to play hockey for the Vikings in the Alberta Colleges Athletic Conference this fall. He has played for the Kodiaks for the past three seasons and accumulated 39 goals and 37 assists for 76 points in 139 regular season games. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Kennyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hard work and dedication have certainly paid off for him and we wish him continued success in his future academic and athletic pursuits,â&#x20AC;? said Kodiaks' coach and general manager Boris Rybalka. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The organization is excited about a former Kodiak staying in Camrose, and pursuing a post-secondary education, while playing collegiate hockey here in this city.â&#x20AC;?

Ray Adamson and his team of horses take a corner at high speed. By Dan Jensen

!-!)NSURANCE CA

He's not getting older, he's getting better. Camrose chuckwagon driver Ray Adamson served notice that he is still one of the All Pro Canadian Chuckwagon and Chariot Association's top performers when he won three of this year's first four events. It might have been four save for one rainout at Hand Hills. The season started at the Grande Prairie Stampede from May 26 to June 2, where Adamson posted a total time after five races of 6:16:06. Keith Wood placed second with a time of 6:16:70. "That was the closest event I have been in this year," said Adamson. At the second event in Bashaw June 10 to 12, Adamson posted a three race total time of 3:07:03, compared to Keith Wood's 3:08:73. In Saddle Lake June 17 to 19, Adamson was almost two full seconds faster than the runnerup, finishing with a time after one race of 1:17:63. "We only ran one day in Sad-

dle Lake," said Adamson. "They had to shut it down because they received two inches of rain." The start is one of the best in Adamson's 49 year career, in which he has been Alberta high points champion 13 times, Red Deer fair champion twice, and world champion once. His best year was in 1974, when he won seventeen of eighteen events. "You'll never see that again," he said. "That was the year I went to the Calgary Stampede." Adamson is pleased with the way his horses are running and working together. "I switched one horse out from last year an it has made quite the difference," he said. "I have never had such a good outfit in my life. They are turning harder, they are running harder. Everything seems to be clicking just right." In Saddle Lake, Adamson started on barrel four, not an enviable place for a driver to be. "I didn't think I had a hope to run four wide around them but I guess I got lucky," he said.

Adamson still plans to race at this year's Ponoka Stampede, where he had nine consecutive wins (the most by any other racer is two), at Whitecourt and at Red Deer, after which he will evaluate whether he wants to continue with the rest of the season. "My boys will be going further but I will probably be staying home," he said. "Basically my goal right now is to get enough points so that I am eligible for a fiftieth year of racing in 2012." Adamson has promised his wife, Betty, that the season after this one will be his last. "With the arthritis I have in my hip and my back it is getting tougher and tougher to do," he said. "Besides that, you really have to work at it. You have to exercise the horses like you would an athlete and feed them the best feed. The 22 horses that we have here are exercised up to five miles a day." Adamson races under the banner of Pidherney's, a construction company from Rocky Mountain House.

Central Agencies Home of the Week

Beautiful two-storey in Valleyview

By Murray Green

This is a high quality built home with loads of class. You will be impressed by the spacious floor plan that caters to an active family life. This threeyear-old 1,980 square foot home is close to parks, recreation, walking trails and the beautiful river valley. Step into luxury through a grand foyer, featuring a gorgeous open staircase with maple and iron railings, an arch and columns. You will love the light and the brightness from lots of large double pane, low E windows, along with nine-foot ceilings and attractive hardwood flooring. The excellent kitchen package includes hickory cabinetry, a large island with breakfast bar, a walkin pantry and several great appliances will simply take your breath away. It is joined by a large and bright dinette area with garden doors to a huge east facing deck. The area is finished with a vast living room, which is great for entertaining guests or family. It features a gas fireplace that will take the chill out of any cool evening. An office and a laundry room are also on the main floor. The upper level contains a large master bedroom with a superb en suite with a soothing soaker

Graham Wideman tub and a separate shower. Two additional bedrooms and a four-piece bathroom are also on the same floor. The fully developed basement contains a massive recreation and games room. The huge family/media room features a cozy fireplace, surround sound speakers and a wide open space for games.

By Dan Jensen

City council has designated the area east of the railway tracks south of the CNR train trestle as a place Camrosians can temporarily walk their dogs without a leash. The designation will end Oct. 30, or when sufficient snow falls to begin preparation of the Stoney Creek Valley's trails for skiing. Council changed the designation from both sides of the railway tracks to just the east side of the tracks after concerns were expressed June 27 about the traffic that would be created in the Valleyview residential area as dog owners try to access the trail system. Concerns were expressed as well about dogs moving out of the designated area into the neighbourhood. Camrose Community Services Paul Nielsen told council in a report that the ski trail area works well for off-leash dogs in that it is isolated from residential development and the asphalt trail system within the valley, and sees low use from spring thaw to fall/winter snowfall. He added that the area is already considered to be the unofficial three-season off-leash area in Camrose. Disadvantages, according to Nielsen, are lack of access points and lack of readily accessible parking, the potential for negative wildlife encounters, and the potential of creating perceived "squatters' rights" by dog owners for accessing the trails once the ski season gets underway. "When the snow flies and skiing preparations begin, the trails will be closed to all other forms of use, including dog offleash," he said. In December, 2010, council designated the area encompassing the Camrose Golf Course south nine as a temporary winter dog off-leash area. A dog walkers' trail was set out and the route marked, keeping the dogs and walkers away from the already established cross-country ski trail route. "The golf course grounds superintendent reported that there was no detrimental effect on the golf course condition as a result of its use as an off-leash area," said Nielsen. "Dogs, their faithful masters, and cross country skiers coexisted well with only one conflict incident reported for the entire winter." Community Services is working with a Camrose Offleash Research Endeavour (CORE) committee to designate a permanent off-lease park that will attract and be used by dog owners. All of the rules and regulations typical to off-leash areas will be posted. In addition to the standard rules, there will be some rules unique to the area regarding the protection of wildlife, staying away from sensitive areas, and the respect of other users.

All-star Challenge Alex Roth pitched three hitless innings to lead the Powerline Baseball League pitching staff in an 8-0 shutout over the Battle River AllStars during the All-star Challenge at Harry Andreassen Field in Camrose on June 28. Teammates Josh Banack, Brad Engel, Ryan Ol son and Jon Anstey all helped with the shutout, allowing only three hits over the remaining six innings. Most of the scoring came i n the sixth inning, when the Powerline league capitalized on a couple of walks and some costly errors to score five runs. Greg Zilkie led t he Powerline batters with two singles and a couple of runs scored. Corey Epp was two-for-three with a run scored. The win ended a three-year drought for the Powerline squad and moves them ahead 6-4-1 in the annual challenge series.

Hirsch one of the most influential people By Murray Green

Todd Hirsch made the list. Former Camrose resident Hirsch, known as the Home-grown Guru in Calgary, was named as one of Alberta's 50 most influential people and is profiled in the July issue of Alberta Venture magazine. The eagerly anticipated list of Alberta's 50 most influential people is available online at albertaventure.com and hits newsstands today. "Todd has distinguished himself not just as an Albertan economist, but on the national stage," said Michael Ganley, editor of Alberta Venture . "He presents complex information in an understandable way, and makes what can be tedious – numbers and charts and percentages – quite fascinating." This year's list features a range of business, culture, and public sector giants, such as Patrick Daniel, CEO of Enbridge; Paul Rogalski, head chef and co-owner of Rouge; and Elizabeth Cannon, president of the University of Calgary. Other notable headlinemakers include Ethical Oil advocate Ezra Levant, hockey great Theoren Fleury, 'homegrown guru' Todd Hirsch, and the contenders for the Progressive Conservative party leadership race. Compiled by the editors of Alberta Venture, the list names the 50 people who had the biggest impact, both individually and collectively, on shaping opinions, ideas and actions in the province over the past year. Whether beloved or controversial, Alberta's 50 most influential people have created change and provoked thoughtful conversation throughout the province, the country and some even around the world. "Picking a list of the 50 most influential Albertans is not simple," added Michael. "Not only are there 3.7 million people to choose from, but influence can reside in the most unlikely of places. Nonetheless, we've done our best to pick 50 people who are the true influence brokers in Alberta in a wide variety of fields. The one thing they have in common is that they are pivotal individuals in their respective communities and they compel people to follow their story." This is what the magazine had to say: It used to be that if you wanted to be a leading bank economist in Canada, you had to live in Toronto or Montreal. That’s no longer the case, thanks to ATB Financial and the work of its charismatic senior economist, Todd Hirsch. After graduating from the University of Alberta with a BA (honours, of course) in economics and getting an MA in economics from the University of Calgary, Hirsch has seen his influence grow exponentially. As the economic centre of the country continues to shift westward, Hirsch’s role as an Alberta-based economist cannot help but continue togrow. Alberta Venture is Alberta's only province-wide business magazine covering the latest issues and trends concerning the business community.

The CAMROSE BOOSTER July 5, 2011

Musicians prepare for a fun Big Valley Jamboree By Murray Green Hobbema's Shane Yellowbird has been quickly learning another language. He is honing his French, to prepare for several tour dates in France, which start on June 30. Shane will also perform a concert on the border with Switzerland. "I'm excited to perform to new fans overseas," said Shane to O'Reilly International News, prior to his departure. "It's great to travel, share my music with new people and make new friends along the way." Shane has become one of Canadian country's top radio and touring acts. Now he is expanding his shows into other countries. Australia's Jetty Road told The Camrose Booster, that Shane will be touring with them down under in 2012. Both bands will be playing at the Big Valley Jamboree, July 28 to 31. Jetty Road will be on the main stage on July 29. Shane will be performing at the Kick-off Party on July 28. On Ramp Records, which features both artists, just released the new album from 2010 CMAA Country Group of The Year, Jetty Road. The songs on Far Away Places capture stories from the band's ongoing adventures to Canada to classic country themes. "Wrong" is a traditionally spirited love song sung in tandem with Canadian country singer, George Canyon. George will also be performing at the Big Valley Jamboree on July 29. Jetty Road didn't deny or confirm if they have convinced George to join them on stage for the song in Camrose. Jetty Road will perform with Shane starting in October 2011 with 24 dates in western Canada and ending with shows in Australia in the winter of 2012. Former Ponoka resident Jaydee Bixby will open for Dirks Bentley at the Calgary Stampede on July 6. Both have played in Camrose at the Big Valley Jamboree in the past. Jaydee stops in Lloydminster on July 2, in Red Deer on July 15 and in Edmonton on July 21. He doesn't have plans for a Camrose concert this year. Victoria Banks, who will be on the main stage in Camrose on July 30, is releasing her second single "I'm Gone" next week from her second album Never Be The Same. "The song "I'm Gone" is an autobiographical tune," said Victoria recently. "It expresses how I was feeling a few years back when I was completely fed up with my life. I got in the car and just started driving – no suitcase, no map, nothing. I ended up hanging out with a Cajun storyteller in a bayou near New Orleans. Sometimes you just have to say, 'I'm out of here.'"

The CAMROSE BOOSTER July 5, 2011

Stacey Joel Mackowosky Stacey Mackowosky of New Norway, Alberta, passed away on Saturday, June 25, 2011, at the age of 40 years. Stacey was born on February 10, 1971, in Edmonton, Alberta, the third child to Lynne and Arne. On July 8, 1995, he married Denise and together they had two daughters. Eventually, they moved and settled in New Norway, where they resided. The better part of his youth was spent in the Camrose area getting into mischief with his brothers and sisters. As an adult, Stacey went to school at Marvel College for hairdressing, but when that didn’t pan out so good, he went back into the oilfield where he worked his way up the ladder to a manager for Cascade Oilfield Services. Stacey enjoyed camping, fishing and spending time with his family. It was well known that Sundays were junk food days where the menu consisted of ice cream, chips, candy of any sort. A few years ago, Stacey and Denise started travelling. After the flight was over, Stacey relaxed and really enjoyed whatever vacation that they were on. After a year-long battle, Stacey passed away peacefully on June 25, 2011, with his family around him. He will be remembered for his contagious laugh, his weird sense of humor and his big heart. Stacey will be lovingly remembered by his wife Denise and his daughters Alicia and Kaitlynd. Stacey will also be forever remembered by parents Lynne, Dennis, Arne and Carrie; brothers Brad Mackowosky and Troy (Cindy) Nielson; sisters Brandy (Brian) Abt, Angela (Victor) Davidison and Brandie (Ryan) Greaves; grandmother Edith Aloisio; and numerous aunts, uncles, cousins and close friends. He was predeceased by his grandfather Ray Aloisio. The family would like to extend a heartfelt thanks to the wonderful team on the palliative ward at St. Mary’s Hospital for the compassionate care he received in his last days, and to Stacey’s loving family for all of the support. Funeral services were held on Thursday, June 30, 2011, at 1:00 p.m. from St. Joseph Lutheran Church with Rev. Jim Appleby officiating. Cremation has taken place. Memorial contributions are gratefully accepted to the charity of one’s choice. To send condolences, please visit www.burgarfuneralhome.com.

Juliette “Julie” Krause

Garry Kent Giebelhaus

Julie was born in McLennan, AB, a few years ago (wink, wink) to Walter and Albertine (Bert) Bell. She moved around a bit with her family, which consisted of brothers Louie, Elvin, Art and sisters Dora, Evelyn, Shirley, Rayia, and twin sister Annette. She finished high school in Camrose, AB. After high school, she began working in St. Mary’s Hospital, beginning in the kitchen and moving up to the medical records department (because of her knack for reading the doctors’ writing.) She met her husband Harry, the twinkle of her eye. They were married a few years later, and were blessed with three children (whom her world revolved around), Carl, Cristine and Charlotte. She made sure the kids had music lessons and loved to listen to them practice. She taught them how to make a campfire, skate, how to ride a snow machine (not just sit on it). She instilled in them a “work hard but enjoy life” ethic, and to ALWAYS have humour when things got rough. She was deeply loved and will be greatly missed by her husband Harry; children Carl (Carolyn) Krause, Cristine (Neil) Knudson and Charlotte (Kevin) Downey; and her very special grandchildren Jonathan, Brandon, Samantha, Emily, Katie and Nicole. She will be lovingly remembered by her sisters, brothers, family and friends. Her grandchildren became her whole world and greatest joy. She will be remembered as the “best Grandma ever.” Funeral services were held on Thursday, June 30, 2011, at 1:00 p.m. from Camrose United Church with Mary Ann Pastuck and Rev. Brian Hunter officiating. Interment followed in Valleyview Cemetery, Camrose. Memorial contributions are gratefully accepted to the charity of one’s choice.

Chicago Blackhawks draft Kodiaks' defenceman Sam Jardine

By Murray Green

The Chicago Blackhawks drafted Sam Jardine in the sixth round, 169th overall in the 2011 NHL Entry Draft, on June 18 in Minnesota. Jardine led the Camrose Kodiaks' defensive group this season with his quality play at both ends of the rink. “The Kodiaks' organization is very proud of Sam," said the Kodiaks' coach and general manager Boris Rybalka. “We

know that being drafted by the Blackhawks organization is a direct reflection of the hard work Sam put in this past season to become a solid defenceman and a wellrounded hockey player.” Sam wasn't disappointed on draft day. Upon hearing that the Blackhawks had drafted him, an ecstatic Sam Jardine said, “I am so excited to be drafted by a young and championship calibre team such as the Chicago Blackhawks.

“I would like to sincerely thank the Kodiaks' organization and the great people of Camrose for all of your support. I could not have done it without you.” He had six goals and 16 assists for 22 points in 50 games, in the 2010-11 regular season. Sam was a key contributor to the Kodiaks' run to the Alberta Junior Hockey League Cup Finals during the playoffs, and appeared in all five games the

Kodiaks played in the RBC Cup, which was held this May in Camrose. Jardine also was named to Team Canada West at the 2010 World Junior A Challenge, which was held this past November, and to Team West at the 2010 CJHL Prospects Game, which was held in December. Sam is the 13th member of the Kodiaks to be drafted by an NHL team in the Kodiaks’ 14 years of existence.

2011Jeep Patriot Capability, styling and performance By Dan Jensen

The 2011 Jeep Patriot at Camrose Chrysler is an affordable compact sport-utility vehicle that offers segment-leading capability, excellent 4x4 fuel economy, and classic Jeep styling. Jeep Patriot's exterior and capability are enhanced for 2011 with new front and rear fascias, a body-colour grille and an increased 4x4 ride height. Ride and handling is refined courtesy of retuned steering and suspension systems. Interior enhancements round out the new for 2011 features, and include significantly upgraded touch points. "Patriot boasts class-leading 4x4 capability and unsurpassed fuel economy, and a host of safety features in a fun and affordable package," said Camrose Chrysler sales manager Denis Mercier. "Based on Ward''s 2010 Small Cross Utility Vehicle Segment, it is the most affordable SUV in Canada." Performance Jeep Patriot's 2.4 litre DOHC 16 valve dual VVT engine pushes 172 horsepower while achieving 7.2 litres per 100 km on the highway (39 mpg). Freedom Drive I, the available active full-time 4WD system with LOCK Mode, helps Patriot plow through severe conditions like deeper snow and sand. Auto/Stick adds an authentic dose of fun by optimizing overall performance and control. The Freedom Drive II off-road group combines fulltime active AWD with LOCK Mode, Hill Descent Control with grade sensing, and Hill Start Assist. The offroad group also offers skid plates, tow hooks, increased ground clearance, all-terrain tires, a single oil cooler, a 140 amp alternator, and a driver's seat adjuster. The Continuously Variable Automatic Transaxle included with the Freedom Drive II off-road group has an impressive 19:1 crawl ratio. A retuned suspension for 2011 boasts higher spring and damping rates, added rebound springs and an increased diameter rear sway bar. Soft touch interior Patriot Limited's new soft-touch interior places comfortably luxurious trim where it is more appreciated on the centre console, armrests and upper door trim. A new three-spoke leather-wrapped steering wheel puts audio and cruise control at your fingertips. Automatic Temperature Control and heated front seats are standard features on Limited that keep you sitting well within your comfort zone. Patriot's interior has more than 1,000 mm of rear seat leg room, more than many mid-size SUVs. The front passenger seat and the rear seats fold flat to let you carry more cargo. The Sun and Sand Group is made to make road trips brighter with a power sunroof and a 368-watt nine-speaker Boston Acoustics Premium Sound System featuring flip-down liftgate speakers. The Uconnect phone lets you talk hands free, while

a 115-volt power outlet lets you entertain passengers via a laptop or portable DVD player. Patriot's Media Centre includes Garmin, the most recognized name in GPS wayfinding. It features the Garmin intuitive user interface and navigation with lane guidance, bringing the popular handheld experience to a factory in-dash screen. The North All Season Group is designed to get you through challenging weather conditions in Jeep brand style and with all-weather capability. With the factory-installed remote start (with automatic transmis-

sion only), you can start your vehicle and heat it or cool it down automatically, from up to 150 metres away, with just Mike Rodin the press of a button on Camrose Chrysler your fob. During cold weather, heated front seats keep you and your front passenger warm and toasty. Incident prevention Patriot's emphasis on incident preventive packages, like Electronic Stability Control, are key to its occupants' protection. A strong cage structure contains a front crumple zone that absorbs energy during a front impact. Standard advanced multistage driver and front passenger air bags, supplemental side-curtain air bags, and available supplemental front seat side air bags help make Patriot a top safety pick of the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. Electronic Stability Control integrates a host of systems that include an antilock brake system, all-speed traction control, Brake Assist, a system that automatically helps provide quicker braking power in emergency situations, and Electronic Roll Mitigation, a system that can apply strategic braking to appropriate wheels and reduce engine power when overly sharp steering actions and/or impending wheel lift is detected. Embedded sensors continuously monitor the pressure in the tires and will immediately notify the driver when levels drop below the minimum acceptable level. The sensors will notify the driver if the pressure is too high, as well.

You can see the 2011 Jeep Patriot 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.

Community garden produces fresh food

Submitted by Kaylyn Jackson

Fresh nutritious and delicious, local food has many different advantages. Last Tuesday at the Camrose Wildlife and Stewardship Societies “The Community As a Garden” environmental education session guests got to hear all about local food from representatives from The Stoney Creek Natural Foods Society, The Good Food Box Project, and Sun Hill Gardens. All three groups highlighted the many benefits of local food from a sweeter fresher taste that comes from allowing fruit to ripen on the vine to a smaller carbon footprint which comes from the lack of transportation needed for local foods.

There are many benefits of local food from a sweeter fresher taste that comes from allowing fruit to ripen on the vine to a smaller carbon footprint which comes from the lack of transportation needed for local foods.

Eating locally isn’t as hard as it may sound. Locally produced food can be found in many different places such as the Camrose farmers' market even the Camrose Co-op carries local and or Canadian grown produce (depending on season and availability). Also the Stoney Creek Natural Foods Society has an online ordering system that gives members opportunities to connect with many different local producers and then place monthly orders year round. Stoney Creek Natural Foods Society is a non-profit organization working to connect local sustainable producers with the consumers who wish to support them in an attempt to make more local foods accessible to more people. More information on the Stoney Creek Natural Foods Society can be found at www.stoneycreeknaturalfoods.ca, or e-mail stoney.creek@telus.net In the next few weeks the Camrose Wildlife and Stewardship Society has many more exciting presentations. This week on July 5th at 7 p.m. at the Stoney Creek Centre, join us for our “Keeping The Community Green” presentation in which you will be able to learn a number of different sustainability tips, learn about composting and, weather permitting, join me in helping to clean up the trails outside of the Centre. Also on July 12th is a presentation on butterflies in which everyone will get an opportunity to experience the Camrose Rotary Club's butterfly and humming bird gardens. For more information on any of these events please contact summer coordinator Kaylyn Jackson at 780-672-0544 or by e-mail at kajackso@ualberta.ca

Have you been out on a walk and spotted a doe with her fawn? There is a good chance that if you haven’t already you will. The deer of Camrose have just recently given birth to their fawns and, according to Conservation Officer Lionel Valcamp, this is a crucial time as the fawns are too young to keep up with their parents. Because of this the mother will often lie them down and then go off a little way on

her own to graze. It is important to realize that if you see a young fawn lying down on its own it hasn’t been abandoned by its mother and you shouldn’t touch it or get too close. A mother deer has to travel a large distance to consume enough food to create the milk for her fawn. If humans are in the area in which she left her fawn, she won’t approach again until they have gone. It is also important to be mindful

To avoid conflict between your dogs and the deer it is suggested that dogs be kept on leash and that owners be on the lookout for deer in their walking area.

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.

ROSE CITY ROSE AND LILY SHOW AND TEA – Thursday, July 14, 2:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. at Camrose United Church. Awards presented at 7:00 p.m. Entry booklets now available at Pedersen’s Florists or Frankie’s Flower Shop. Entry fee for exhibitors $3. Tea, $3. For further information call Diane, 780-672-9329 or Betty, 780672-1317. THE FAMILY OF BERNICE ANDERSON (formerly of Meeting Creek and Rosalind) would like to invite you to a SURPRISE birthday tea to celebrate Mom’s 85th birthday, Sunday, July 17, 2 - 5 p.m. at Heritage Manor. No gifts please. THE FAMILY OF GERALD AND KAREN KNIEVEL invites you to celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary on Saturday, July 9, 7 - 11 p.m. at the Ohaton Hall. Please join us!

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.

May busy for protective services By Murray Green

The Camrose County Protective Services department was busy in May. New manager Mike Kuzio reported 16 calls for services from ratepayers and 41 traffic tickets were issued, despite the switch over. "I have big shoes to fill with the absence of Russ (Olansky), but I am looking forward to the challenge and working with council members," said officer Kuzio. He said the long weekend was generally quiet, with campgrounds relatively full. "The fire ban may have had something to do with it." The phone calls were for traffic, bylaws, animals, litter and general concerns. The tickets issued totalled $6.810 in fines. One speeder was nabbed for going 166 kilometres in the county. The driver was issued a 21-day suspension and a $750 fine. Officer Kuzio attended a joint meeting and mock disaster planning session to prepare for the Big Valley Jamboree outdoor music festival in Camrose this July. County councillor Vern Peterson also suggested to continue to lobby for more RCMP support and to speed up the process of adding another fully qualified officer to fill officer Kuzio's former position. Nuisance complaints

The number of nuisance property complaints has been on the rise and protective services asked for a motion, "That Camrose County send a letter under the reeves' signature to the concerned residents outlining the County Unsightly Enforcement process and actions for enforcement under the Nuisance Property Bylaw," said officer Kuzio. "This is due to numerous neighbour complaints received."

The CAMROSE BOOSTER July 5, 2011

Rural adult campground rejected by County By Murray Green A proposed campground for those over 50 between Hay Lakes and Miquelon Lake was turned down by Camrose County on June 28. With a room full of opponents to the campground, owners of this 80 acres of land wanted to rezone it from agricultural to general recreational to allow the development of a 12- to 24- unit campground. County land development officer Anjah Howard said the plan was labelled as phase one, but didn't know what phase two would entail. "The development would be a private RV campground, based on long-term multi-year leased individual lots for seasonal occupation," she reported on behalf of the owners. The redistricting bylaw 1211 - S1/2 NW 2-49-21-W4 was defeated when many letters were heard and several verbal submissions were presented in council chambers. "At the discretion of council, good farm land may be rezoned for recreational and residential use adjacent to water bodies. Landowners are encouraged to keep natural vegetation on land next to rivers and streams," Anjah said. General recreation district zoning provides land for campgrounds, golf courses and other public and private sector recreation developments. Five surrounding residents wrote against the campground because of the removal of agricultural land, noise, sanitary, traffic, recreational vehicles, dust, increased fire risks, unknown future expansion plans and security concerns. "When I first heard the proposal, I didn't hear anything about it being an over 50 campground," said Bob Wilson, a neighbour. "I am concerned about phase one and phase two. It is on 80 acres (there is plenty of room to expand). Considering where it is, I can't believe there wouldn't be any noise." Rick Dale, another neigh-

bour, wasn't opposed to the idea. "I'm 61 and I have three grandchildren. I'm sure there are others in the same age group who have grandchildren and like to visit with them. Does that mean they are not allowed on the property? That is just another concern." The age limit doesn't solve all of the problems. "I know they say it is over 50, but we are talking redistricting land. Then what is stopping the next person from coming in and developing," said local resident Doug Stevenson. "This is peaceful agricultural land. If they want to have peace and quiet, then they might have to do like the rest of us and purchase land to retire on." Campground proposal partner Colleen Trautman defended her intentions. "My husband and I have been members at the Bashaw Golf and Country Club for years and have had a seasonal camping spot and what I have seen is the need for a place for people to go to. Land is becoming very expensive and unattainable for a lot of people. This would provide a sanctuary for seniors." Councillor Vern Peterson expressed his concerns over security. The proposed campground owners indicated a set of rules will be put in place and enforced. Although the proposed campground was turned down, it can be brought back to council in a year. Tax recovery Council received an offer from Dean Tesolin and Sandra Risling to purchase lots nine and 10, Block 3, Plan 7534AA in Kingman for $18,000 plus GST. The County agreed in principle because the offer is subject to the applicant being able to receive a proposed homebased business development permit. Councillors will discuss the type of home-based business and what activities are planned before issuing a business permit.

Camrose Sea Serpents win first three meets of season By Dan Jensen

The Camrose Sea Serpents are a perfect three for three. The swim came out on top in terms of points in each of the first three meets it attended this year. Camrose Sea Serpents coach Shane Gau can't remember a year in which the club has won the first three meets. "We are off to a really good start," said Gau. "We're beating Edmonton Derrick and Edmonton Huma, two of the top clubs in our region." Edmonton Huma placed third among large teams in the provincial rankings last year, one spot ahead of the Camrose Sea Serpents, while Edmonton Derrick placed sixth. "It's good to be ahead of those teams knowing that they are going to be our bigger competitors later on," said Gau.

The Sea Serpents took just over 50 swimmers to the first meet in Vermilion May 28, then 72 swimmers to a meet it hosted in Wetaskiwin June 12. The meet in Sherwood Park June 18 saw 56 swimmers attend. "In Vermilion we more than doubled the number of points of the second place club," said Gau. Under the Alberta Summer Swim Association's system, teams receive a designated number of points according to how their swimmers place in the races. A first place finish equals seven points, a second place finish five, a third place finish four and so on. "All the points of the swimmers get added together for each club and on that basis they declare a team champion," explained Gau.

The swimmer who is making the biggest splash for the Sea Serpents is 16 year-old Nathan Saby, who set a provincial record in the boys' 15-17 50 metre free race at the Sherwood Park meet, posting a time of 24:51. "There are very few swimmers that go under 25 seconds in the 50 metre free," said Gau. Saby also posted blazing fast times in the 100 metre freestyle, the category in which he set the provincial record at the provincial championships last August, and the 50 metre breast stroke. "He was only a couple tenths of a second away from setting two other provincial records as well, said Gau. "He is swimming times right now that aren't that far behind the times recorded by Olympians."

Usually, swimmers don't start breaking records until later in the season, after they have had a full year of training. The fact that he is setting them now makes Gau wonder how tough he is going to be at the upcoming national championships. "I'm not sure what the top end for him is," said Gau. "Usually Nathan doesn't start hitting his best times until he is threequarters of the way through the season. He is scary fast â&#x20AC;&#x201C; one of the top swimmers in the nation in his age group." Saby is a dedicated athlete who spends two hours at the pool every day. Half that time is spent coaching and mentoring the younger swimmers, while the other half is spent working on his own stroke. "You can just see when he

works out that his focus and intensity is at a different level," said Gau. "I think he knows that he can do something special this year." The Camrose Sea Serpents should have a large group attending the Alberta Summer Swim Association regionals at Sherwood Park August 5, 6 and 7. "I am optimistic that we will have more swimmers going to regionals," said Gau. "We had a number of recreational swimmers in the past but this year we are a little bit more competitive. Our attendance at practices has been outstanding, as has the commitment from the kids. The result is that we are getting more kids out to the swim meets." The provincial championships will be held in Calgary August 12, 13 and 14.
