are hosting a provincial conference at Augustana Campus of the U of A, September 7 and 8. The organization is an initiative of the Stephen Lewis Foundation which was created to support the indomitable African grandmothers and the resourceful community-based organizations that care for them, as well as the millions of children in their loving care who have been orphaned as a result of AIDS. A tremendous bond has been developed between the Camrose grandmothers and their African peers. One highlight of the weekend will be the unveiling of the fifth book written by a world renowned author and photojournalist Paula Gianturco. This will occur during her 9 a.m. to 12 noon presentation on Saturday. This particular session will be open to the public.

New City Hall won't be designed to LEED standards By Dan Jensen

City council will not be seeking Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) certification with the new City Hall. "We are committed to building an energy efficient building but it will not be to LEED certified, silver, gold or platinum standards," said Camrose mayor Marshall Chalmers after council's Aug. 27 regular meeting. LEED is a third party certification program and an internationally-accepted benchmark for the design, construction and operation of high performance green buildings. "As an internationally recognized mark of excellence, LEED provides building owners and

operators the tools they need to have an immediate and measurable impact on their buildings' performance," states the Canada Green Building Council website. "Through certifying hundreds of projects over the past decade, LEED Canada has transformed the way built environments are designed, constructed and operated â&#x20AC;&#x201C; from individual buildings and homes to entire neighbourhoods and communities." LEED certification is based on the total point score in sustainable site development, water efficiency, energy efficiency, materials selection, and indoor environmental quality. Certified, silver, gold and platinum levels correspond to the total number of points that are achieved.

Mayor Chalmers said the decision to not proceed with LEED certification could possibly save the City of Camrose thousands of dollars. "There is extra money that is required because meeting the different standards is an ongoing process." The decision was partially influenced by council's wish to proceed cautiously with a building that already has an estimated price tag of $17.5 million. A recent report presented to City Hall indicated that $15 million would be funded with Municipal Sustainability Initiative money and $1 million would be funded from City of Camrose reserves. "The money we are talking about is public money and we

have to obviously keep in mind the best way to spend it," said Chalmers. City of Camrose administrators will be meeting with the City Hall architect, Manasc Isaac, in a value analysis workshop this fall to identify additional opportunities for cost savings on the City Hall, as well as identify alternative strategies to accommodate the parking requirements. Manasc Isaac is recommending that, as the drawings for the new City Hall are almost completed, the tendering of the project be done at the earliest possible date, to achieve significant economies. "At this time in the market, we see a window of opportunity for tendering projects of this scale, in the last quarter of 2012,"

said Vivian Manasc. "Based on our deep insight into the current state of the construction industry in central Alberta, escalation is expected to begin in the first quarter of 2013, and trade capacity may be limited by the summer of 2013." City council has directed administration to provide information on parking operations, as well as plans for staff relocation and associated costs. A potential solution to the parking issue may be the lease or purchase of province-owned parking lots to the south of the current City Hall location. The new City Hall would be built to accommodate 95 City staff by the year 2039.

Boomtown Trail promoting regional success By Murray Green

Boomtown Trail executive director Ken Duncan updated Camrose County council on the summer activities of the organization. "We thank the county for the support, in particular, councillor Glen Nelson for sitting on our board," said Ken. "We started at the grassroots level with economic development through tourism. In the last few years we have had some successes. Before we start building some of the projects, we have to make sure the regions are successful. We changed our focus to regional success through tourism. There is an old tourism adage that you have to be successful at home before you can expand into other regions." Ken said they need to start with successful communities. "We have had some popular dessert theatres. When you take the task of hosting a meal out of it, then it becomes manageable for most people. This is about having success in communities more so than that of the Boomtown Trail. It is our role to help communities achieve success." Sometimes Ken has to show people what the success might look like. "We have to plan for the future, adapt and grow. Tourism is an excellent way to develop and strengthen each community. Each successful community has a good social network infrastructure. It is hard to define, but we want to be part of that system." Ken wants to get the smaller communities to be more involved to work together on making the whole region stronger. "I ask that everyone be an advocate for the Boomtown Trail," said Ken. Reeve Don Gregorwich said he liked the idea of getting each community to think of what success looks like in the future. "We all have some common challenges and successes and if we work together, we can have successful regions," added Ken.

Council approves arts centre add-ons By Dan Jensen

Camrose City council approved $275,000 worth of addons for the Performing Arts Centre at its regular meeting Aug. 27. "We're going to be putting in washrooms (in the rehearsal basement) and an elevator," said Camrose mayor Marshall Chalmers. "We want to do this right from the start." Camrose Community Services general manager Paul Nielsen told council the add-ons are either required or are highly desirable in terms of providing a fully accessible and functional performing arts centre. He added the total amount cannot be absorbed into the project budget as the project has already undergone an extensive value engineering process. "The original list of proposed add-ons amounted to $450,000 but through a review process with the project manager and project steering committee, a few

of the elements were deemed as being nice to have but unnecessary." The add-ons will be funded with accrued interest from the Major Facilities Enhancement Program grant, donation funding in excess of the stated fundraising goal, and, if required, the Provincial Municipal Sustainability Initiative capital grant. Augustana dean Dr. Allen Berger announced at the meeting that the University of Alberta will be installing solar panels on the fly tower of the performing arts centre at a cost of between $500,000 and $1 million. Solar energy generated by the panels will feed directly into the electrical system and help to reduce operational expenditures. Since the awarding of the contract, the project manager and contractor/architect have been working together to provide a "bricks and mortar" building

that will meet community expectations within the specified total project budget of $18 million. Lease extension

Council also authorized the execution of a one-year lease extension, with the option for a further one-year lease, to the Camrose and District Senior Society for the lease of Mirror Lake Centre. The current lease was set to expire on December 31 of this year. The Society's lease payments are being deducted from the Society's debt to the City, which currently stands at $106,650. The City pays the utilities of the Mirror Lake Centre in totality, as well as maintenance costs, snow removal and insurance. The Camrose and District Senior Society has a membership of 349. "They had 17,456 paid visitors to their facility last year and expect to exceed 18,000 in 2012,"

said a report provided to council by City manager Damian Herle. "Two new clubs are being added this fall to bring their clubs up to a total of 19. The Society reports that they utilize the auditorium five days a week and sometimes six." The Society is willing to share facilities with the City during the construction of the new City Hall. "In recognizing the need for the City to have more office space at the Mirror Lake Centre, the Society would be willing to vacate the administrative office space currently occupied by the Society and the Handi-Van," said Herle. Building permits

The City of Camrose issued building permits having a total value of $2,893,925 in July. The total value of building permits issued this year is $17,796,326, up from the $17,241,821 at this time a year ago.

Grey Cup to make an appearance in Camrose September 18 By Dan Jensen

The Grey Cup is coming to Camrose. The trophy that is awarded each year to the best team in the Canadian Football League will be arriving by train at 52 Avenue and 50 Street Sept. 18. Camrose is one of 100 communities across Canada getting ready to welcome the Cup on its the Grey Cup 100 Tour – presented by Rona – starting in Vancouver Sept. 7 and finishing at the 100th Grey Cup Festival in Toronto 72 days later. "The Grey Cup really belongs to every Canadian, so our goal for this special year of the 100th Grey Cup game is to bring it to as many cities, towns and Canadians as we can," said Mark Cohon, commissioner of the Canadian Football League. "Each time it arrives we will

host a celebration worthy of its stature and full of fun." The Grey Cup 100 Tour train has been specially renovated with support from the federal government, league sponsors, VIA Rail and CP. A museum car at the front will provide the opportunity to learn about the history of the Grey Cup, which has been stolen twice, broken on several occasions and survived a fire, while the car containing the Grey Cup will feature Grey Cup championship rings from the past 25 years. A team car will feature up-to-date league paraphernalia, mini lockers of all CFL teams, and speeches from former CFL coaches Michael Clemons and Wally Buono. The final car, the hospitality suite, will allow fans to mingle with Cohon, as well as current and past players.

Grey Cup 100 Tour stops will be surrounded by fun activities for families, as well as pomp and ceremony. Fans will be able to have their photos taken alongside the Grey Cup and immediately share their pride via social media with family, friends and fellow fans. The Government of Canada provided support for the train tour and the 100th anniversary Grey Cup celebrations in last year's budget. "It revolves around a great Canadian sport but the Grey Cup has evolved into so much more," said the Honourable James Moore, Minister of Canadian Heritage and Official Languages. "It's a source of pride and unity, part of our history and heritage, and something that plays an important role each year in the cultural life of Canadians.

Sharing the celebration of the 100th Grey Cup by bringing the trophy and its lore to Canadians is a worthy and exciting endeavour." The Grey Cup 100 Tour will be an opportunity for Rona to unveil the football fields it will be helping to refurbish as part of its Home-Field Advantage program. "Bringing our expertise to the communities where we live and investing $240,000 through the Rona Home-Field Advantage Program makes us extremely proud," said Rona executive vice president, marketing, Karim Salabi. Donated by then Governor General Earl Grey in 1909, the Grey Cup has, like Canada, been through two World Wars, and a Depression, experiencing countless challenges and triumphs.

The Cup has been awarded every year since 1909, with the exception of a three-year span during the First World War. Calgary Stampeders fans were the first to celebrate the Grey Cup in a big way when they cooked flapjacks on the steps of Toronto's City Hall in 1949 and partied all over downtown. The Edmonton Eskimos won the Cup five years in a row from 1978 to 1982. "We are proud that the Grey Cup has for decades been the trophy awarded to the champions of our league," said Cohon. "We are prouder still that it has become something even bigger than our game. It is a symbol of Canadian unity, our ability to compete and come together at the same time. The Grey Cup is special. It's ours. And it's time to celebrate it – and Canada."

City council provides budget instructions to administration By Dan Jensen

City council provided City administration with a list of directions and assumptions Aug. 27 for the preparation of the 2013-15 operating and 2013-17 capital budgets. Council asked that new assessment growth be utilized to offset pressure on the mill rate and that requests for new resources, programs and staff be accompanied by justification, including linkage to the municipal sustainability plan and strategic priorities of Going Forward: The Roadmap to 2015. Council also directed the City manager to prioritize all requests for new staff on a cor-

tion from a core services review that is currently being undertaken. A part of the budgeting process that may be changed is the way that community groups present their requests for City assistance. "In the past every organization has been required to come to City Hall and, in a presentation to council, explain its specific request," said Mayor Marshall Chalmers. "We are looking to streamline that a little bit while at the same time respecting that organization's needs or value within the City. We may have them make a presentation to administration or to a different kind of

committee instead of to council." Community organizations must submit written submissions including plans for usage of City funds and budget projections, as well as financial statements. Administration is expecting to present initial operating and capital budgets at a committee of the whole meeting on November 5. Final budget instructions are slated to be provided by council at a regular meeting November 26, followed by approval of the operating and capital budgets on December 10. A public open house on

Others are that the capital budget be aligned to the municipal sustainability plan, that continued efforts be made to find opportunities for efficiencies and cost reduction, that additional revenue generating opportunities be explored, and that utilities continue to be self-funded through user fees and utility rates.

Country Opry still going strong after 12 years By Murray Green

The Camrose Country Opry's first concert was held in January 2001. Even after all of those years, the enthusiasm for the amateur talent shows hasn't waned. Mary and Bill Walker thought of the idea of getting local musicians together for a concert a few months earlier in 2000. By January, Bill rounded up enough musicians to put on a show that needed an intermission to give them a break. Over the years the Opry

has had a few homes and has attracted musicians across western Canada. Now from October to May the monthly show is held at the Bailey Theatre. The new executive consists of president Doug Ezeard, secretary Judy Sturek and treasurer Darlene Ezeard. Directors Blanch and Clarence Graumann and a large group of volunteers ensure each show runs smoothly. "We have had musicians from across the province and Saskatchewan play for us," said

Doug. "We have had many encore performances because the musicians were so good that people wanted to hear them again." Proceeds from the ticket sales, available now at Shopper's Drug Mart in the Duggan Mall, go toward purchasing instruments and donating them to schools within the Battle River School Division and to help students who attend summer music schools, camps or programs. Reserve seasonal tickets are available from Darlene or Doug Ezeard.

"It is our belief that many children who are musically inclined and have talent, are sometimes held back by the lack of funds," said Doug. "We stay in contact with all local schools and many summer music programs to determine when we should step up and help those students." The impact of the Opry has been huge. "Our association has donated approximately $45,000 in 12 years. Our sponsors and the people who attend the shows helped make this happen and we

can't thank them enough," Doug added. The Opry accepts amateur musicians who play or sing country and gospel music in a live atmosphere. Show dates for the 2012-13 season are Oct. 13, Nov. 10, Dec. 22 for this year. In 2013, the dates are Jan. 12, Feb. 23, March 9, April 13 and May 11. The doors open at 6 p.m. and the show begins at 7 p.m. To inquire about performing at the Opry, contact Doug at 780672-4233 or 780-608-0902.

BRSD board elects Bowie as chair PEN POINTS by Berdie Fowler

Grandmother Power This weekend, Friday and Saturday, Sept. 7 and 8, Grateful Grannies of Camrose will host the Alberta Provincial Gathering of grandmothers (and grand others) who are supporting the Stephen Lewis Foundation, launched in 2006, for the purpose of raising awareness of the devastating plight of African children orphaned by AIDS, and to provide funds for the grandmothers who are trying to care for them. The public is invited to attend the Saturday morning session to hear the keynote address by author, Paola Gianturco, on the subject of Grandmother Power: A Global Phenomenon, which is the title of a book she has written about the work grandmothers are doing, not only in Africa but everywhere, and how it’s changing the world. The time and place to hear her is 9 to 10:30 a.m. on Saturday, Sept. 8, at the Augustana University Campus. This informed lady is able to bring to life the tragic conditions facing many women in the world because she has been among them and seen both the suffering and the ingenuity with which they are courageously trying to alleviate it. I read a headline on the subject which said: Millions of children orphaned by AIDS. I read it again; yes, it really said millions. I can’t imagine even one million children but it clearly said millions with an ‘s’. To help me realize the tragic enormity of the situation I recalled how shaken we had been by news that five children of one family in our own province had been orphaned by a vehicle collision caused by a drunk driver, and the four children in our own community who were similarly orphaned several years ago. Then, in addition to those nine, I imagined that all the children I knew were also orphans, but the total didn’t come close to multi-millions; it didn’t come close to even one million. Millions of children orphaned by AIDS is indeed an overwhelming catastrophe. When 14.9 million youngsters have no parents, who cares for them? In Africa, it is grandmothers but many African grandmothers have meager means so their resources are stretched beyond their capacity to meet essential needs of their orphaned grandchildren. We are told that some youngsters are actually left to fend for themselves. African grandmothers, like grandmothers anywhere, can provide comforting love to their grieving parentless grandchildren but they do not have the resources to feed, clothe and shelter them. Through the Stephen Lewis Foundation, compassionate grandmothers in Canada and 15 other countries are helping with that and have invested over $50 million to date. Funds raised at the grassroots level outside Africa go directly to the grassroots level in Africa, thus eliminating the cost of bureaucracy. In addition to providing essential needs such as food, clothing and shelter, funds are used to help families help themselves through innovative programs that generate income, through HIV/AIDS treatment and prevention counselling. Grateful Grannies in Camrose was organized in 2010, has 90 members and, in two years, has raised $50,000 which has gone directly to grass roots grandmothers in Africa. The good news is that the community to community program is effective and giving rise to the expectation that the HIV/AIDS pandemic can indeed be reversed. To hear the story from someone who has been there, be at Augustana, at nine o’clock Saturday morning, to listen to Paola Gianturco describe what she has seen in terms of suffering and also in light of the prospects for a brighter future in which families have parents. Community partnerships work. An opportunity to participate in the Grandmothers to Grandmothers Campaign exists through the Grateful Grannies of Camrose. Contact persons are Agnes Hoveland, 672.2888 and Mardell Olson, 672.8057.

New board chair Doug Bowie (left) and vice chair Peter Miller (right) were sworn in by Imogene Walsh, assistant superintendent business, on Aug. 30. By Diane Hutchinson, Communications Officer, Battle River School Division

Every fall the Battle River School Division Board of Trustees holds an organizational meeting, to determine the role each of the eight elected officials will take on during the next year of their term. This year, the Board of Trustees not only selected their committee roles for the 2012-2013 school year but, for the first time in five years, selected a new board chair. Former board chair Cheryl Smith nominated Doug Bowie to serve as chair for the coming year. Ms. Smith, who has been selected as board chair in each of the previous five years, cited Mr. Bowie’s passion for education and ongoing commitment to student success as the reasons for her nomination motion. In accepting his new role, Mr. Bowie (who has served as vice chair the previous two years) told trustees that new board chair Doug Bowie and vice chair Peter Miller (right) were sworn in by Imogene Walsh, assistant superintendent Business, on August 30. “I’ve learned a lot in the last two years,” said Bowie, “and I look forward to leading our board

team as we move ahead with our division-wide plans and priorities.” “Helping students succeed in school is critically important to their future success and to the success of our whole society. The Board’s job is to create the environments that make it possible for kids to meet their potential.” The board also selected Peter Miller as the new vice chair. Mr. Miller is in his third term as the representative for Flagstaff County West. Both Mr. Bowie and Ms. Smith are trustees from the City of Camrose. Superintendent of Schools Dr. Larry Payne expressed his appreciation to Cheryl Smith for the significant work she has done during her five years as board chair. “Cheryl has dedicated countless hours and boundless energy to her role as board chair. She has always acted with integrity and has a deep commitment to children. “Though Cheryl has chosen to move on from her role as board chair, she is leaving a tremendous legacy. Cheryl led the board through the creation of their Code of Conduct; she worked with staff on the development of a healthy schools and workplace policy; and she supported bring-

ing alternative programs into our division. Cheryl has also been at the helm of our work to ensure the school division is accountable. She has been the public face of standing up to hazing; she has significantly expanded our public consultation process and she has worked to ensure our division remains solvent, by adjusting spending to match declines in enrollment. Throughout it all, Cheryl has stayed focused on the importance of teaching and learning, considering the needs of all students in Battle River when making decisions.” In addition to her role as trustee in Battle River, Ms. Smith also provides leadership at the provincial level, and is entering her second term as vice president of the Alberta School Boards Association, where she is looking forward to continuing her role of advocating for all Alberta students. At the organizational meeting, the Board of Trustees also confirmed their meeting schedule for the coming year. Details of the schedule, along with the list of committee appointments, will soon be posted on the school division’s website, www.brsd. ab.ca.

Government cancels police college funding The Alberta Government has made the difficult decision to cancel the Alberta Public Safety and Law Enforcement Training Centre in Fort Macleod. Consistent and standardized training for law enforcement agencies across Alberta will continue to be developed and implemented. “This was an extremely tough decision,” said Jonathan Denis, Minister of Justice and Solicitor General. “But in the end, Albertans expect their tax dollars to be invested wisely and the government is committed to this goal.” Police agencies across the province were asked to provide feedback on their expected use of the Fort Macleod facility after concerns about utilization were raised to the ministry. This input provided sufficient evidence that one stand-alone facility would not be utilized to a point that it would be financially viable. The feedback received from police indicated that larger police forces were confident in their existing training facilities that have provided exceptional police training to date. Training

at existing facilities would also create less strain in smaller communities as departments would not need to send active officers to a remote location for extended periods of time. “I believe strongly that the Alberta Government has made the right decision, both as Chief of the Calgary Police Service and as a taxpayer,” said Calgary Police Chief Rick Hanson. “Our cadet training is done in Regina, so we will not require any facilities or training in that regard,” said Dale McGowan, Commanding Officer of RCMP K Division. “Any specialized training needs are being met now at our existing facilities or at various locations throughout Canada.” “The quality of training for Edmonton police will be maintained through our current facilities and programs, including a new facility recently approved for north Edmonton,” said Edmonton Police Chief Rod Knecht. Alberta’s Solicitor General remains committed to implementing standardized training for police and peace officers across the province, which includes a

New hunting regulations By Dan Jensen

Alberta Minister of Environmental and Sustainable Resource Development Diana McQueen is encouraging all Albertans to be careful in the field and respectful of the land this hunting season. "Be sure to get permission for access where required and become familiar with the regulations," said McQueen. Alberta has protected and conserved wildlife resources through the proper management of hunting activities for more than 100 years. "Perhaps more than ever, vigilance and innovation are needed to make sure this tradition lasts through the next century and beyond," said McQueen. Alberta Environment and Sustainable Resource Development has updated hunting regulations for 2012 in an effort to ensure that all hunters have a safe, enjoyable and sustainable hunting experience.

X-Bolt Rifles The new benchmark in bolt-action rifle design The bolt-action rifle is forever changed with the introduction of the all new Browning X-Bolt. The X-Bolt builds on the proven successes of past Browning rifles, and adds numerous improvements that are certain to place the X-Bolt at the top of the pack. Most notably is a completely new adjustable three-lever Feather Trigger™ system that offers the best feel on any Browning rifle ever. A new bolt unlock button works with

the top-tang safety to offer enhanced safety while unloading. New styling features more compact dimensions for a smaller, quicker, sleeker look and feel, and also trims weight. To ensure the stability of optics, scope bases are attached to the receiver using four screws per base. Innovation is the Browning tradition, and the X-Bolt is just the latest example.

Features:

• 60o Bolt Lift machined from a block of solid steel bar stock for strength and custom rifle precision. Three locking lugs provide exceptional bolt strength. • Barrel - free-floating for utmost accuracy. • Inflex Technology Recoil Pad offering the best recoil absorption available on any rifle. • Magazine - all new detachable rotary magazine.

• New three-level Feather Trigger • X-Lock mounts featuring all new four screw per base design that replaces the traditional two screw system for more accurate placement of the receiver • Bolt Unlock Button

By Murray Green

Rich Hope and the Evil Doers first appeared on stage for the Rose City Roots Society a year and a half ago. The band's country blues with a touch of rock sound returns to the Scalliwags Pub and Rum Bar at 8 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 8. Hard working musician Rich has been referred to as one part country blues and one part rock. Drummer Adrian Mack is the other half of the duo, making him the Evil Doers part of the band. "We're back in Camrose because we had a great show last time. Lots of people came out who wanted to dance and enjoy the music," said Rich. "That's the only reason we play anywhere." After Rich’s first solo release Good to Go in 1998, the much sought after guitar player joined John Ford and became one of their principal songwriters. John Ford released their selftitled debut in 1999 and what followed was a five-year rock and roll journey and a major label debut for the band’s second album Bullets for Dreamers in 2003. The band toured with the Tragically Hip, 54-40 and Big Sugar. Rich emerged with his own way to rock and the self-titled CD Rich Hope and his Evil Doers was voted in at number 35 for the top 50 albums of the year in 2006 by BluesMatters! Magazine. The album was followed by Is Gonna Whip It On Ya at the end of 2009. The band found success with songs “Let’s Jump Around” and “When My Light Comes Shining” in western Canada. The Evil Doers song “Shake This Joint Around” from Hope’s self-titled 2005 album was selected as the BC Pavilion’s theme song during the Vancouver Olympic Winter Games. "I am currently working on new recordings for a fall or winter release," said Rich. Perhaps, he will give Camrose a sampling of some of his new material during his stop on Saturday.

County grants private special event permit By Murray Green

Camrose County council agreed to let Roberta Baker have a special event permit to hold a Valdy concert. She has to meet all of the requirements in the special event application and is subject to the $100 fee. Protective services man-

ager Mike Kuzio told council that Roberta has agreed to the conditions of the permit. The closed event is a private family function and no tickets are available. The county granted a half-day event permit even though Roberta only asked for two hours.

"We are in receipt of acknowledgement from the RCMP, a safety plan and the insurance policy," said officer Kuzio. "There will be a first aid station on site and porta potties and garbage barrels throughout the venue. There will be approximately 100 people on site and no alcohol will be served."

IS UNDER NEW MANAGEMENT President Douglas Ezeard, secretary Judy Sturek and treasurer Darlene Ezeard, along with their directors at large Clarence and Blanch Graumann and a host of volunteers, wish to thank all our musicians, sponsors and community business supporters. Most of all, thanks to you the community who spend your dollars each month to come, see and enjoy our amateur musicians. Camrose Country Opry was the brain child of Bill and Mary Walker back in 2000. We had our first Opry in January 2001. Once a month from October to the following May, we hit the stage. Over the past few years, we have had many homes for our show. Our new home, hopefully for a long time, is the refurbished Bailey Theatre. On the second Saturday of most months at 7:00 p.m., you can come and enjoy a three-hour show for under $10. Our Seasonal Reserve Tickets are $9, Advance Tickets are $7, available at Shoppers Drug Mart, Duggan Mall. (Thank you, Shoppers Drug Mart, for your continued support.) Tickets at the door are $8. Each dollar earned after expenses is used to support local school music programs by purchasing instruments and donating them to schools within Battle River School Division. We also sponsor students attending summer music school, camps and other music programs. It is our belief that many children who are musically inclined and have talent are sometimes handicapped by lack of funds, so we stay in contact with all local schools and many of the summer music schools. After determining a need, we step up and help. Since it’s inception, our association has donated approximately $45,000 to local music programs within our school district. Many thanks to those who support our efforts. Without you, this could not happen. We have had musicians from all across our province and Saskatchewan come and play for us. They have come from as far away as Bonnyville, Consort, Barrhead, Lacombe, Turner Valley, Wainwright, Edmonton, Calgary, St. Paul, Macklin, SK, Neilburg, SK, to Crossfield, Fort Kent, Wainwright name just a few. Thank you all sso much – without you, we would have no show. Contact us and western or gospel musician, singer or comic who does if you are an amateur country a live performances and are looking for a venue to expand your horizons. lo

This spring, the Camrose Cygnets' recreation girls' group held the annual Star testing. Girls who successfully completed all the regional elements were: (left to right) Sarah Filipchuk, Star 1; Megan Uglem, Star 4; and Kyla Church, Star 1. The synchronized swim club meets Saturday mornings. The girls are ages four and up.

Camrose Cadet Adam Clarkson was recognized as the top cadet in his platoon during three weeks of training at Vernon Army Cadet Summer Training Centre. Cadet Clarkson is a member of 3068 Royal Canadian Army Cadet Corps, Camrose. Cadet Clarkson attended the three-week Basic Leadership Course which prepares the cadets to fill the roles of junior leaders at their home corps. They learn problem solving, time management, team building, effective communication skills to enable them to command other cadets at

the 10-member squad level. They also learn rifle drill, compete in a summer biathlon, and descend from the abseil tower. Leadership skills are a major part of a threeday field training exercise in the hills of the Okanagan Valley. After the final parade, the cadets made their way to their homes in western Canada. During the summer, 1150 Army, Air and Sea cadets from western Canada will have spent up to six weeks in the Okanagan Valley centre, expanding the training they receive at their home corps, developing new skills and forming friendships.

Sidewalks for walking

Emotional maturity an issue with significant number of children

By Murray Green

Submitted

It is illegal to ride a bicycle, skateboard, rollerblades, scooter or any similar device on any sidewalk in the downtown area. Main Street has additional rules to keep the area safe. The exception to the city bylaw is the use of a mobility scooter. "However, if someone is operating a motorized mobility scooter, it must be in a safe manner," said Const. Matthew Wilton, crime prevention officer with the Camrose Police Service. Parking can be an issue. It is unlawful to cross the double solid line when parking. Do not park in the restricted white line spots, and follow the parking time allowance. "We have angle parking downtown and at the end of every corner is an area with white lines painted. The white lines signify that you are not allowed to park there. The reason for that is that you would have to reverse into an intersection or crosswalk. They are not loading zones," warned Const. Wilton. "There is a two hour limit for parking downtown to allow for a turn around in customers for business. There are public lots in the downtown area if you need to park for more than two hours." Bicycles should be used in the streets and not on the sidewalks. "When you need to park, get off your bicycle and walk it on to the street to secure it if you are leaving it unattended. Just make sure it is not obstructing pedestrians and away from the crosswalk," advised Const. Wilton. In addition to issuing tickets for riding items on the sidewalk, police can confiscate your mode of transportation. Const. Wilton also reminds motorists that it is a $575 fine for failing to stop for a pedestrian at a crosswalk.

The provincial Early Childhood Development (ECD) Mapping Initiative included assessments of the readiness of young children currently entering kindergarten in five categories including emotional maturity. According to the results, close to 21% of Camrose and Area kindergarten children are experiencing difficulty or great difficulty in the Emotional Maturity category. Emotional Maturity generally refers to a child’s ability to express emotions at an age-appropriate level and to empathize with others. Aside from academic readiness, it is important to consider a child’s emotional maturity when entering kindergarten. The ability of a kindergartener to build trust, create productive relationships and demonstrate resiliency to perform under pressure is crucial in the early years. These skills are constantly tested as children continue through primary school and beyond.

How can parents assess their child’s emotional maturity? Observe your child in various settings with other children. Observing children at play with other children gives parents a good sense of how their child handles social interactions. Parents and caregivers can also model growth in emotional maturity in many ways. “By acknowledging children’s feelings, helping them name those feelings, and even asking for clarification regarding how they are really feeling, parents and caregivers can help foster growth in children’s emotional maturity level,” explains Kari Cameron, the Camrose and Area ECD Program Coordinator. Parents and caregivers can also access the “Ages and Stages: Social-Emotional Questionnaire (ASQ/SE)” available through the Camrose Family Resource Centre. The ASQ/SE is a simple questionnaire that asks specific questions about social emotional development. As parents play with their children, they are asked to observe the

way that their child completes certain activities. Parents check “yes” if a child performs the activity regularly; “sometimes” if a child does it only occasionally; and “not yet” if the child is not performing the activity at all, or at least not yet. Once completed, the questionnaire can be returned to the Camrose Family Resource Centre where trained staff will review the results with parents. CFRC staff can also provide a list of appropriate activities so that parents can continue to promote social emotional development with their children. If the ASQ/SE questionnaire indicates that a child may be experiencing difficulty, parents are given a referral to an appropriate agency for further evaluation and assistance. This does not mean that there is something wrong with your child; perhaps she or he simply needs a little extra attention in a specific area.

Sharon Bruneau

Pearl Evangeline Buskas

Jennie Annette Nordin

August 31, 1948 – August 26, 2012 Sharon Evangeline Bruneau was born in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan to Harold and Freda Smith. She grew up in rural Saskatchewan, Manitoba and Toronto, Ontario with her brother Paul. Having graduated from nursing school at Toronto Western Hospital in 1969, she moved to Alberta to be near John Bruneau whom she married in 1970, and with whom she shared the rest of her life. After they moved to Edmonton, she completed her B.Sc. in Nursing and worked in public health until children came on the scene. After the younger years of her three children – Philip, Richard and Susanna – Sharon returned to nursing in 1987, in public health in Wetaskiwin and then home care in Camrose. She invested much of her passion and energy in her family which has now grown to include daughters-in-law Robyn and Kierstin, and grandchildren Cypress and Anae. She leaves a legacy of nurturing relationships and a fondness for the wonderful and different, of exploring tide pools and building creative gingerbread houses. Her two battles with cancer fostered a challenging and dynamic relationship with God that found hope and depth that encourage us all. She was an advocate of the good around her and the biggest fan of her husband and children. A funeral service was held at Camrose Church of God in Camrose, Alberta (4722-55 Street) at 1:00 p.m. on Friday, August 31, 2012. Memorial donations are gratefully accepted to the Canadian Cancer Society, Sahakarini Inter-World Education and Development Association, Baptist Peace Fellowship of North America and Geez Magazine. Condolences may be made at www.weberfuneralhome.ca.

September 29, 1925 – August 24, 2012 Pearl passed away peacefully on August 24, 2012 at the age of 86 years following a difficult time of poor health which she courageously fought with strength, determination and humour. Pearl was born on September 29, 1925 on the family farm in the Water Glen District. She attended Calumet School. In later years, she attended Bible school in Wetaskiwin. Pearl married Oscar Buskas in July 1947, and to this union were born six children. Pearl’s Christian faith was important to her. She kept her faith personal and very close within her heart, as she was of a quiet nature. She loved to watch her flowers grow, especially her geraniums on the patio. She always had a cup of coffee or tea and cookies ready for anyone who had the time to stop and chat and enjoy some time with her. She found it extra special when her children and grandchildren would stop by for a visit as they meant so much to her, along with her special “kitty”. Making afghans was a great pasttime of hers, making sure every family member had one of their own. Pearl was deeply loved and will be sadly missed. Pearl is lovingly remembered and survived by her six children and families: Merlin (Colleen) Buskas, Marvin (Carol) Buskas, Arnold (Patti) Buskas, Janet (Barry) Littlejohn, Shirley (Dennis) Willson, Larry Buskas (Sandi); 17 grandchildren and spouses; and 16 great-grandchildren. Pearl is also survived by her brother-inlaw Seig (Maxine) Buskas and sister-in-law Hilda Buskas, as well as many nieces and nephews and special friends. She was predeceased by her husband Oscar in 1969, and daughters-in-law Terry and Donna. Also predeceasing her are her sister Ruby Schultz, brother Wilford Erickson and her parents Edwin and Ellen Erickson. A funeral service was held on Wednesday, August 29, 2012 at 2:00 p.m. from Century Meadows Baptist Church Camrose with Mary Ann Pastuck officiating. Inurnment has taken place in Valleyview Cemetery, Camrose. Memorial contributions are gratefully accepted to the Parkinson Society, Calvary Lutheran Cemetery Fund, or the charity of one’s choice. To send condolences please visit www.burgarfuneralhome.com.

August 3, 1915 – August 24, 2012 Jennie Annette Nordin was born on August 3, 1915 in New Sarepta, Alberta to Halvor and Johanna Hansen. On December 6, 1941, Jennie married the love of her life, Lennart Nordin. This union was blessed with four children Eldon, Joanne, Lance and Annette. They farmed in the Hay Lakes area until the sudden passing of Lennart on December 13, 1965. Shortly after, Jennie moved to Camrose and worked at Rosehaven until her retirement at the age of 65. Jennie was a quilter, a seamstress, and a fabulous cook and baker. She loved spending time with her family and friends, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Jennie will be deeply missed by her children Eldon (Margaret) of Hay Lakes, Joanne Long of St. Albert, Lance (Marge) of Lethbridge, Annette (Jan) Nowakowski of Camrose; 10 grandchildren; 20 greatgrandchildren; one sister Hilda Hansen of USA; three sisters-in-law Betty Hansen, Inez Nordin and Christine Nordin; and numerous nieces and nephews. Jennie was predeceased by her husband Lennart; son-in-law Michael Long; three sisters in infancy; two brothers Albert and Ted; and three sisters Tillie, Aslaug and Helene. A funeral service was held on Wednesday, August 29, 2012 at 11:00 a.m. from Messiah Lutheran Church with Bev Swanson officiating. Interment has taken place in St. Joseph’s Lutheran Cemetery. Memorial contributions are gratefully accepted to St. Joseph’s Cemetery Fund, or the charity of one’s choice. To send condolences please visit www.burgarfuneralhome.com.

Don Pike Don was born on February 27, 1954 in Camrose, Alberta to Hugh and Margaret Pike, and passed away on August 18, 2012 after a courageous battle with cancer. Loving and missing him are his wife Judy; sons Robert (Merrin) and James (Yukari); grandchildren Sienna and Mason; motherin-law Nana; nephew Allan (Kaia); niece Christine; and many family and friends. This past year showed how strong and brave Don was. Many of his doctors and nurses were amazed at how Don could carry on with no complaints or demands, and how he was able to care for himself. In the past months, he had wonderful times with Rob, James, Merrin, Yukari, Sienna and Mason, along with family and friends who were able to come and visit. Don was predeceased by his father Hugh, mother Margaret, sisters Lorna and Cheryl and brother Harvey. Thank you to everyone who has been so good to us, especially Aunt Shirley, cousins Lorrie and Randy, and special friends Ken, Lori and Sean.

Terrin Chey Bourque September 24, 1977 – August 27, 2012 It is with great sadness and heavy hearts that the family announces the untimely and sudden passing of Terrin Bourque on August 27, 2012. Terrin will be sadly missed by his mother Marilyn and stepfather Mark; brother Nathan (Niki); grandmother Kiki Bryan; aunties and uncles; cousins; many friends; and our faithful dog Samson. He was predeased by his father Don Bryan, grandfather Melville Bryan, and grandparents Winnifred and Joseph Bourque. A celebration of life was held at the Elks’ Hall, 4702-50 Avenue, Camrose, AB at 2:00 p.m. on Sunday September 2, 2012. Terrin is survived by many and missed by all!

September 9, 1939 – September 8, 2010 God saw you getting tired, A cure was not to be. So He wrapped you in His loving arms And whispered, “Come with me.” With tearful eyes, we watched you, We watched you fade away. Although we loved you dearly, We could not make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating, Hard-working hands at rest. God broke our hearts to prove to us, He chose to take the best. So many things have happened, Since you were called away. So many things to share with you, Had you been left to stay. Sadness still comes over us, Tears in silence flow, Memories keep you ever near, Though you died two years ago. Your loving husband Vern and family

In memory of

Ronald Nelson McVee September 23, 1921 – August 24, 2010 Another year has passed since God called you away But still we miss you each and every day. What we wouldn’t give to take one more walk Or just quietly sit and have one more talk. Miss you and always will For though you’re gone, we love you still.

County honours supporters at anniversary celebration

City of Camrose Deputy Mayor Ray McIsaac presented a recognition award showing grain and elevators to Camrose County Reeve Don Gregorwich to honour the county's 50th anniversary on Aug. 25 at the Camrose Regional Exhibition. By Murray Green

Although Camrose County has been around for only 50 years, it has had many valued employees and tireless volunteers over the years. "Your county has long been served by county administrators such as Bill Gartner, Brian Austrom and Steve Gerlitz and many valuable employees over the years. Your services have been appreciated over the years by residents," said Reeve Don Gregorwich. "Our county didn't magically appear 50 years ago. The Battle River runs through the county and was named after a battle between the Blackfoot and Cree natives. At one time we were part of Rupert's Land and the Hudson's Bay Company." Today, the county is 80 miles long and 30 miles wide. There are nine hamlets, seven villages, one town and one city within the county. "We try to have as harmonious relationships as possible with all of them. We all work together and really, there are no boundaries between us," said Don. "No matter where you live within the county, you are part of several communities. We are where we are today because the people that came before us were hard working, imaginative, innovative, far-sighted, who believed in the strength of cooperation

Former Camrose County reeve Bob Seney, left, presented a civic award to past administrator Bill Gartner to honour his hard work and commitment to the county in the past. The county celebrated 50 years on Aug. 25.

and families. People saw opportunity and seized it. In doing so, people built a good quality of life that we all enjoy today." The local area has produced leaders in the agriculture industry and the county has kept up with services. "We have one of the largest seed cleaning facilities in Alberta. We have a good shoulder pulling program to help us maintain our network of gravel roads," said Don. "Our latest achievement is the development of our bio-fuels program that received a provincial award for innovation." Walter McNary approached council about planting trees within the county. "Starting next spring, we will be offering spruce seedlings at cost to our county residents to replenish trees in the county," added Don. "This is an example of thinking of things to provide a legacy for the future." Don said he encourages young people to go out in the world, but always remember where they came from. "The Town of Bashaw has a sign that says Welcome Home. That idea wasn't created yesterday or the day before or 20 years ago. They did that in 1910. It is a tremendously innovative idea. I think we should consider that and remember it. You are always welcome."

The reeve also encouraged county residents to enjoy what the area has to offer. "Get in the car and start driving through our county. Save that trip to West Edmonton Mall for another time," continued Don. "Our county and our community events are a destination, not just a location to drive through on the way to somewhere else. I believe 50 years from now future generations will take a look at what previous generations have accomplished. They will see that we did so in pride and ambition through strength and commitment." Two civic awards were presented on Saturday, Aug. 25, during the anniversary celebrations at the Camrose Regional Exhibition. The county honoured former employee Bill Gartner for guiding the council through making difficult decisions and building up the municipality to what it is today. The Pearl and Robert Thirsk family was honoured for their work within the county as they volunteered for many activities and community projects, especially in the Kelsey district. Beautification awards went to landowners Randy Meadahl, Richard Pelz, Gail and Jim Muirhead.

EMT trainees have chance to test their skills By Dan Jensen

EMT students at the Lakeland College Emergency Training Centre in Camrose had an opportunity to test their skills during a mock airplane crash at the airport Aug. 29. "Events like these are frequent enough that you need to practice so we are practicing," said Emergency Training Centre lead EMT instructor Cheryl Cameron. The Lakeland College Emergency Training Centre EMT program takes in a new cohort of students every six months. The mock disaster occurs twice a year as the culminating activity as the first six months of activity and is followed by hospital and ambulance practicums. "They (exercises) are pretty valuable because they have to do on the spot assessments and information gathering just like they would have to do in a real life situation," said Cameron. "The students normally tell us afterwards that it was eye opening and good to see a situation like this before having to deal with it in real life." Using the fuselage of a King Air 200 as a prop, students learned the special techniques that are required for dealing with patients in tight surroundings. The Emergency Training Centre acquired the fuselage two years ago and has been modifying it ever since. Patients were volunteers from the community and past students who used makeup and props to simulate bleeding, wounds and bruises. "We hid one of the patients in the grass to make sure the students were able to get to everyone," said Cameron. The Lakeland College Emergency Training Centre has always received good cooperation with its exercises from other Camrose agencies. "We have used the firehall a couple of times because it has a three-storey tower that can be filled with smoke, and last year used the Camrose Aquatic Centre," said Cameron. "We try to coordinate with outside agencies as much as possible when they are available." Students who are entering their first year of EMT training will be participating in a type of skills relay this

week at locations around Camrose to make sure they are at the level they need to be. "They'll have a chance to practice their patient handling skills, the insertion of intravenous, electrocardiograms, and carrying patients across obstacles using different pieces of equipment," said Cameron. "They'll be mock scenarios on a smaller scale than this one, just one patient at a time." The Lakeland College Emergency Training Centre offers full time programs in Emergency Services Technology, Firefighting, Emergency Technician and Paramedic. Students learn about who they are, what their strengths

are, and how they can use their strengths to make a difference. Courses contain an appropriate balance of theoretical and practical, hands-on content, and are structured so that each new skill builds upon those previously acquired. Many of the instructors have had hands-on experience with real-life situations. "All of our instructors are working EMTs or paramedics and all have hands-on experience working with live patients," said Cameron. "Some have also assisted with real mass casualty incidents such as Pine Lake, the fire at Gardner College and the bus disaster on Highway 63."

New Dodge Dart Exceptional value and world-class architecture By Dan Jensen

The new Dodge Dart at Camrose Chrysler leverages the world-class architecture and DNA of Alfa Romero and then infuses it with Dodge passion and design. The result is an agile, fun-to-drive compact car with mid-size levels of interior roominess and unmatched style, technology, safety and customization. "Dart is a thoroughly modern vehicle that's beautifully designed and crafted with high-quality materials, attention to detail and precision craftsmanship," said Camrose Chrysler sales manager Denis Mercier. "It's a car that customers will be proud to own and look forward to driving." Eye-catching Eye-catching exterior proportions are set off from every angle by dynamic lines and curves, along with advanced technology, to deliver class-leading aerodynamic performance. The personality-packed front view is instantly recognizable as an all-new Dodge with its tailored split-crosshair grille, projector headlamps, and fog lamps and accentuated fenders. Signature Dodge full-width LED racetrack tail lamps and class-exclusive integrated dual exhaust – both inspired by Dodge Charger – accentuate the athletic and muscular stance of this dynamic and passionate new design. Sophisticated engines Three fuel-efficient, powerful state-of-the-art fourcylinder engines add to Dart's fun-to-drive quotient. Drivers can select from a new Tigershark 16-valve 2.0 litre engine that delivers up to 8.1 litres per 100 km in the city, a 16-valve 1.4 litre MultiAir Intercooled Turbo engine that delivers up to 7.4 litres per 100 km in the city, and a new Tigershark 16-valve 2.4 litre MultiAir four cylinder engine. MultiAir technology delivers optimum combustion at any speed under all driving conditions by allowing direct and dynamic control of air intake and combustion. The result is up to a 15 per cent increase in low engine rpm torque, a 7.5 per cent improvement in fuel efficiency, and a 10 per cent reduction in CO2 emissions. Transmission choices include a six-speed manual, a six-speed dual-dry clutch, or a six-speed automatic. Technologically advanced The die-cut, precision machine sewn and handwrapped brown showcases the technological centrepiece of the all-new Dart. The available illuminated floating island bezel houses a segment-exclusive seveninch thin film transistor gauge cluster display, customizable to suit your own personal style. The standard analogue design cluster is trimmed with fiery ruby-red lighting for exceptional crisp and clear readability, while steering wheel mounted controls let you crank the music, make a phone call or set the cruise control.

"The steering wheel is heated, a class-exclusive," said Mercier. Every detail, surface and touch point has been scrutinized to ensure the Dodge Dart looks and feels perfect. The atmosphere of technology, comfort and style is designed to flat-out surprise and delight with exceptionally designed features like the available LED ambient interior lighting that brings illumination to door handles, map pockets, footwells, front cup holders and cubby area. The Dart's roomy interior provides both a comfortable ride for passengers and clever storage for your gear. An available in-seat storage bin stows essential travel items out of sight. The oversize glove box is a perfect fit for tablets and most laptops. The centre console provides easy access to cell phones, MP3 players and cup holders. Safety Dodge has you covered from all angles with over 55 standard and available safety and security features,

with advanced options like the segment-exclusive blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-path detection, parkview rear back-up camera, Park-Sense rear park assist, as well as 10 standard air bags, electronic stability control, and four wheel disc ABS brakes. Dart steps in when it detects you are veering off your intended path, Mike Cuthbert engaging brake assist Camrose Chrysler and all-speed traction control to help you maintain direction control.

Police remind motorists to lock vehicles By Murray Green

Theft from unlocked vehicles is still a problem in the area. Last year, the Camrose Police Services reported 170 thefts from motor vehicles in a 10-month period. Although the numbers for 2012 are not in yet, crime prevention Const. Matthew Wilton believes the numbers will reflect a similar pattern. "It is still one of the larger issues for property crime in our city. It also is such a preventable crime and people just need to learn to start regularly locking their doors." Suspects are targeting various types of motor vehicles and the occurrences have taken place all over the city. "Investigations have determined that offenders primarily target multiple unlocked vehicles at night," added Const. Wilton. "Some simply try all of the doors until they find one unlocked. A large majority of the thefts have involved unlocked vehicles." Const. Wilton reminds all motorists to ensure that their vehicle doors are locked and their windows are rolled up whenever a vehicle is left unattended. "Remove any items of value from your vehicle. Commonly stolen items are GPS units, change, wallets, purses, iPods/mp3 players, keys, garage door openers and personal documents," said Const. Wilton. "Remove extra keys from vehicles because a majority of vehicles that are stolen in Camrose have had keys hidden inside of them. Thieves do window shopping as well." Both the police service and AMA recommend that all valuables should be removed on a daily basis. "Nothing of value should be within sight, so thieves are not enticed to break in. If you have

to, place valuables in your trunk where they can't be seen," said Const. Wilton. "These crimes are preventable and it is as simple as locking your doors. It is extremely rare where someone has broken a window to get in. Thieves are looking for the easy targets." The AMA placards are avail-

able at the police station and at the AMA office. It reminds motorists how to safeguard vehicles to prevent crimes. "We ask the public to be involved in preventing crimes. If you see someone suspiciously walking around vehicles, going from vehicle to vehicle, or trying

to enter vehicles, phone the police and we will check into it," said Const. Wilton. "We are going to ask the caller to describe the person, where she/he last saw him/ her and what type of clothing he/ she are wearing to help us. We like to get those calls because it helps us solve the crimes."

Red Lions scratch out a win in deciding game By Murray Green

It took the Westlock Red Lions three games to knock off the Camrose Axemen in the senior men's North Central Alberta Baseball League playoffs, Aug. 25 and 26. Camrose finished first in the league after making the playoffs for the first time since joining the NCABL in 2008. The Axemen finished a half game ahead of the Edmonton Blackhawks in the regular season with a 14-4 record. The Axemen won the first game of the best of three finals at Harry Andreassen Field with a 5-4 victory on the strength of Paul Ofrim's pitching. Westlock blanked Camrose 3-0 in the second game to set up the final where the Red Lions won 14-6. Camrose got off to a horrid start and were down 9-0 before the Axemen scored six runs in the fourth to make it a ball game. However, the Red Lions heated up their offence to garner a few of those runs back. "I knew that Camrose and Westlock would be a very competitive match-up. It could have gone either way, but we didn't hit the ball when we needed to this weekend," said Wes Harrison of the Axemen. "We give Westlock full credit for winning because they were the better team this weekend. We had the pitching and defence, just couldn't hit the ball when we had runners on base." The two squads split the games won during the regular season. "Those guys in the other dugout are a scrappy little team and any team that made the playoffs could have won the semifinal series," added Wes. "Right now it is a little disappointing to us not to win it. Once the guys have a good night's sleep, they will realize this was a successful season. We didn't get the cherry on top by winning the whole thing, but all in all at the end of the day, it was a pretty good season." The season will give the club more experience for next year. "Yes, the experience helps. When it comes to men's league baseball it all comes down to who can play next year. The roster can change because of work. We may have some guys move up from midget

Murray Green, Camrose Booster Camrose Axemen third baseman Paul Ofrim keeps his eyes on the ball after trying to break up a double play in the final games of the North Central Baseball League championships against the Westlock Red Lions on Aug. 26. Camrose won the first game 5-4, but Westlock came back to win 3-0 and 14-6 to win the playoffs.

and it is something we have to determine in April. It is a year to year thing. Hopefully, we have a good core come back to take another run at it. Next year, our goal is the same. Make the playoffs and then see what we can do." In the semifinals, Camrose defeated the Sherwood Park Athletics in three games. The Axemen lost the first game 7-1, but won game two 2-0 and the final contest 3-2.

The Westlock Red Lions, who placed third in the regular season, knocked off the Edmonton Blackhawks in two straight games to set up a final series between Camrose and Westlock. "Ever since Camrose joined the league we have had tough games against them and they just keep getting better," said league and Westlock MVP Adam Sawatzky. "You can see by the standings that they have been on a steady

progression to the top. They are definitely a good team and we didn't take them lightly this weekend at all." Camrose could be the team to beat next year. "The way they have their pitching staff set up, and the depth they have, Camrose could be tough to beat for a while," Adam said. "They have a strong core and there is no easy out. At first we thought it was far for us to travel, but Camrose has a good

diamond and it is a good sports town." Adam won his seventh league title. "When I first came to the team we won five in a row, maybe six, but this win is with a whole new group of guys. I'm really proud of these guys." The same can be said for the Axemen as they hosted the championship finals for the first time.

Kodiaks open exhibition season with a victory By Murray Green

The kids are alright. The Camrose Kodiaks' rookies defeated the Okotoks Oilers 3-1 in the first exhibition game of the year in the EnCana Arena, Aug. 27. Trevor Costello opened the scoring for the Kodiaks but Okotoks replied less than 30 seconds later to tie the game at 1-1. In the second period, Ryker Leer netted the game winner on a feed from Jordan Wiest and Cam Gotaas. Jordan is a relative of last year's captain Rylan Wiest and Cam is the son of former National Hockey League player Steve Gotaas. In the third, Riley Cardinal added an insurance tally with help from Devin Gerun, a product of the Camrose Minor Hockey system. The Kodiaks used three goalies as the team searches for someone to play along side of returning

netminder Matt Gibney. The game didn't make the decision any easier for general manager and coach Boris Rybalka, as all three played well. Devin McDonald stopped all 11 shots he faced, Jeremy Balyk turned aside 12 of 13 to allow a power play marker and Patrick Gora stopped all seven shots he faced. Okotoks outshot the Kodiaks 32-21. The Kodiaks open the regular season on Sept. 7 and 8. Camrose will face the Calgary Mustangs on Friday at 7:30 p.m. On Saturday, the Kodiaks host the Grande Prairie Storm. Students who attend elementary schools in Camrose will be allowed in at no charge for both games. After a game in Lloydminster on Sept. 12, the Camrose Kodiaks return home for a match against the Bonnyville Pontiacs on Sept. 15 and face the Whitecourt Wolverines on Sunday, Sept. 16.

The Kodiaks defeated the Okotoks Oilers 3-1 and the Brooks Bandits 4-3 in overtime in exhibition games. The Kodiaks open the regular season at home on Friday, Sept. 7 against the Calgary Mustangs.

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

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

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

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

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

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

More than 50,000 Canadians are affected by Muscular Dystrophy. Symptoms of the disease vary according to the condition and may be mild, moderate or life-threatening. Those who have Muscular Dystrophy require the care and assistance of many people.

KidSport receives boost Join the Sobeys team

Full-time

Meat Cutter Battle River Credit Union City Center Camrose branch manager Matt Danko presents a cheque for $1,000 to Camrose KidSport chair Dean Threinen. By Dan Jensen

Battle River Credit Union believes in the KidSport Camrose philosophy that kids should not be restricted from playing organized sports due to a lack of finances. BRCU's City Center Camrose branch was able to raise $1,000 for the KidSport Camrose program through a charity barbecue following the Camrose parade August 2. "We believe it is a good cause considering the importance of minor sports in our community," said BRCU City Center Camrose branch manager Matt Danko. KidSport Camrose was formed a couple of months ago to complement existing programs already in the community, like the Camrose Minor Sports Help Fund. "We are in the initial stages of fundraising so that we can be an active chapter within KidSport," said Camrose KidSport chair Dean Threinen. "According to KidSport Canada we have to have a certain amount of money in place before we can start providing funding." Parents seeking financial assistance under the KidSport program may submit financial records in the form of tax returns that are used to determine income thresholds, or a letter from an authorized official who is able to say there is a need. A provincial fund application is available for families living in areas of Alberta not covered by a local committee. KidSport encourages developing early physical activity habits that will help increase the probability that kids will remain active in adulthood, and getting kids active in sport programs when they are young to develop a strong and healthy community for the future. "Our program enables more kids to play organized sports and is fulfilling a need for the families we support, but there are still too many kids left on the sidelines," states the KidSport website. "We have a vision to ensure that no child is ever left watching from the sidelines simply because the family couldn't afford the cost." Threinen said KidSport Camrose has already met with good community reaction. "We have had a lot of private sponsorships and we have had corporate sponsorships like this one from the Battle River Credit Union. It seems like everyone we have talked to the community has said that KidSport is a fantastic thing."

Schlosser performs free noon piano recitals Submitted

As an early autumn treat for the Camrose community, Augustanaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Fine Arts Department will be sponsoring two free noon-hour piano recitals by pianist Milton Schlosser. The programs â&#x20AC;&#x201C; each thirty-five minutes in length and beginning at 12:15 p.m. in the chapel on Wednesday, September 12, and Friday, September 14 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; feature works by composers W.A. Mozart, Johannes Brahms, and Frederic Rzewski. The piano pieces to be performed highlight Schlosserâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s diverse musical tastes and skills. Mozartâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Sonata in F Major (K. 332) was composed in 1783 while the famous composer and keyboard artist was in Vienna. The sonataâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s three movements reveal the composerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s unique ability to balance various musical effects; beautiful melodies and playful virtuosity are highlighted and interwoven by the most ingenious of means. Schlosser also tackles Johannes Brahmsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; piano pieces from the collections Opus 117 and 118. In 1890, at the height of popularity as a composer and concert pianist, an exhausted Brahms declared that he would compose no more, stating â&#x20AC;&#x153;it is high time to stop.â&#x20AC;? However, he then proceeded to write some of his most significant and moving piano works, including those from Opuses 117 and 118. Schlosser will record these pieces for CD release in October. Schlosserâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s CD recording of Winnsboro Cotton Mill Blues has garnered international attention, as evidenced by its being broadcast on BBC Radio. Those unable to hear Schlosser perform in Camrose will have an opportunity to hear him in Edmonton within a single recital format. On Sunday, September 16, at 3 p.m. in UAlbertaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Convocation Hall, he performs a benefit concert. The proceeds from this concert go to the Edmonton Branch of the Alberta Registered Music Teachersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Association (ARMTA) to assist music students of all ages. Tickets will be available at the door.

BIRTHS To Shyla Janzen and Arleigh Jones, of Killam, a son on August 22. To Mindy and Nathan Felgate, of Camrose, a son on August 23. To Andrea and Derek VanBrabant, of Kelsey, a son on August 26.

Curling academy unveils future plans By Murray Green

The Rose City Curling Club is using its knowledge and resources to create a Camrose Academy of Curling (CAC) to ensure the sport grows in the area. Ken Duggan and Terry Morris of Curl Management, presented the details to Camrose County councillors on Aug. 28. "The curling club has generated funds from three high profile curling events such as the Continental Cup of Curling in December, 2008, the Alberta Scotties Tournament of Hearts in January 2011 and the Alberta Boston Pizza Cup in February 2012," explained Ken. The curling club is searching for a way to get more young people interested in the sport. "It is important for us to create a legacy to benefit the curling club, the City of Camrose and Camrose County. We wanted to invest in the future of the sport for the curling club. Other sports have had some success with an academy. The curling academy in Camrose will be a first in Alberta." The academy is partnering with several locally based educational institutions and is building towards a September, 2013, start time frame. "This is exciting because we could have curling year round with camps. We could also have wheelchair curling," said Ken. “We thought about junior high and then the whole idea expanded up to the university level. We will be partnering with Battle River School Division (BRSD, the City and Augustana in marketing," said Ken. "We want Camrose County to be involved in this project as well." Plans for the academy are to have an international recruiting focus with China, as well as recruiting students locally, from across Alberta and Canada. The City of Camrose is twinning with Yichun, located in the northern part of China. "Yichun is located in the Chinese province of Heilongjiang and wants to become the curling capital of China," said Ken. Heilongjiang and Alberta have a twinning agreement and arrangement already in place. Another priority is to attract highly qualified and experienced instruction and coaching for the CAC students. “We have had preliminary discussions with high profile curlers, provincial, Canadian and world champions who are interested in working with the CAC,” said Ken, who has had talks with Randy Ferby, Stephanie and Adam Enright and Heather Nedohin. The academy will have a teacher from the Battle River School Division as the head instructor so students can receive credits towards their schooling. "Today, we are looking for the county to endorse the concept of what we are doing," added Ken. Councillor Brian Austrom said the program should attract local and international students, and that will end up benefiting the area.

UNIDIRECTIONAL FLUSHING PROGRAM Unidirectional Flushing is a method of cleaning the water mainlines through a network of flushing sequences with the water being discharged from a fire hydrant. The flushing of the pipes will dislodge and remove mineral deposits, sediments and biological deposits that accumulate over time. The City of Camrose implements the Unidirectional Flushing (UDF) Program to: - maintain and improve the City’s water quality. - improve water flow and pressure in the water distribution system. - reduce bacterial growth, restore disinfectant residual, and improve water color. Unidirectional Flushing uses 40% less water than traditional flushing programs due to increased water velocity. In addition to scouring the water pipes, the UDF Program also gives the City the opportunity to check, exercise, and maintain all water valves and hydrants. Starting with Zone A (in Area 1) in early August, the UDF Program will continue for 2-3 months. Water service should not be disrupted during the flushing process. There may be a slight drop in pressure or a presence of discoloration in the water from the minerals and sediments being flushed from the pipes. If a discoloration is noticed, please turn the tap off for 15 minutes and flush from your bathtub tap until the water is clear. For more information about the Unidirectional Flushing Program, please contact: City of Camrose Engineering Services 780-672-4428
