For several years, recreation opportunities for youth of Camrose have been positively enhanced by the

Camrose Aquatic Centre

Sponsored Swim program

During the fall and winter months, when youth tend to be less active outdoors, business owners generously sponsor a public swim time or subsidize a specific swim time slot. A subsidized swim means admission for that time slot is just a Toonie! When businesses sponsor a public swim all swimmers get in free of charge! CEL Electrical Contractors is a big believer and long-time supporter of this program and have stepped up to kick off the 2011/12 fall swim season with a free swim on Saturday, Oct. 1, from 1-4 p.m. Anyone interested in getting wet and having a ton of fun will be granted free admission to the pool, thanks to this great corporate citizen! Watch for other free or subsidized swim opportunities in the coming months.

Minister of Citizenship, Immigration and Multiculturalism Jason Kenney is c ommitted to speeding up the time it takes for Canadian employers to hire foreign workers. "Now that unemployment is going down and the labour market is ge tting tighter," said the Minister at the Camrose County office Sept. 14, "we recognize that there is a need to relax the rules." Kenney said he is working with Diane Finley (Minister of Human Resources and Skill Development) on a package to streamline the LMO (labour market opinion) process, and will be meeting with employers in Calgary within the next couple of weeks to hammer out a f ew solutions. "One thing we are looking at is moving to a two-year LMO and or a t wo-year work permit, and, in certain occupations, where there is clearly a significant compelling labour shortage a kind of an occupational LMO – a n exemption, basically, from the LMO process." Kenney takes objection to the criticism from media and the labour unions who say that the government should shut down the temporary foreign worker program, claiming it is n othing more than organized exploitation of foreign workers. "I just think that is ridiculous," he said. "Yes, I think there are some bad a pple employers and that they should not be allowed to bring such folks in, but the vast majority of Alberta employers are good, honest, decent law-abiding citizens who invest in their employees. The temporary foreign workers don't regard what they are doing in Canada as exploitation but as opportunity. Many of these people are able to earn in a d ay in Alberta what it would take them a week or a m onth to earn in their country of origin. They can save and have better protection for their rights here in Canada than they ever would in their country back home. They can build a n ew home, start a b usiness and achieve some of their dreams." Kenney said the government's provincial nominee program has helped to double the number of economic immigrants coming to Alberta from about 11,000 to 24,000 a year. "We have given to the provinces like Alberta the power to select a c ertain number, several thousand economic permanent immigrants, permanent immigrants, based on their own regional labour or economic needs. That is a lot better than taking some guy who is a m edical doctor in a third world country, dropping them in Canada and then finding out that they are not going to get their licence to practice as a physician. These are permanent residents, coming in and filling typical trade shortages." Kenney said while immigration is required for Canada to maintain the current demograpics and sustain an aging population, it is unreasonable for the government to think about increasing immigration four-fold and bringing in a m illion newcomers every year. "I want to make sure that

Minister Jason Kenney

the people who come here integrate successfully. I don't want to flood our health care and education and housing with people that we cannot absorb." Kenney said the Conservative government has instituted freezes to help reduce the number of applications for immigration from the high of one million under the Liberals, and has invested in new technology to become more productive. "When I b ecame minister the whole department was run virtually on paper. In our missions overseas we have rooms like this, several times larger, with nothing but stacks of files." The government has also set up a n ew telephone information line to help immigration with the 60,000 calls it receives every day. Kenney admitted he does not have a l ot of patience for people who come to Canada and make no effort to learn English or the country's customs, values and laws, and who try to raise their kids in the same way as they did in their country of origin. "That is n ot what we are about in Canada. We are about unity in our diversity, we are about respecting the values that built this country. We are being very vigorous in cracking down on immigration fraud and removing fake asylum claims while providing protection at the same time for real refugees who are victims of persecution." Kenney feels that, along with immigration, it is important to find ways to get more Canadians involved in the workforce. "Believe it or not I a m actually bringing in temporary foreign workers from Russia to work in fish processing plants in parts of Atlantic Canada with double digit unemployment. Tell me how that makes sense. Why somebody would be sitting at home, presumably collecting an employment insurance cheque, when there is decent work down the road. And even here in Alberta, employers tell me that young Canadians who were born and raised here are no longer willing to do the kind of work that their parents or grandparents were willing to do. They tell me that if the job does not involved an air-conditioned office or a c omputer the young Canadians are not interested anymore." Kenney said it is wrong to tell young Canadians that if they don't go to university to get a professional degree that the work they are doing is less valuable or less important. "We have sent the wrong signals about all of that and I think we need to revalue as a society basic work, skilled labour and so forth. That is a b ig term and a long term thing and it involves the school system."

Concerns expressed over noisy vehicles By Dan Jensen

A Camrose resident wants to do something about the problem of noisy vehicles. Gary Keetch has his sleep disturbed every night at around 3 a.m. by the noise from a truck driving past his place on 50 Avenue and 53 Street, either going to or coming from work. "People don't like train whistles but this sound is louder than that," he said. "It rattles the china in the china cabinet." Keetch has talked to Camrose police about the problem

but has been told they cannot do anything because there is no bylaw governing noisy vehicles. "There's a noise bylaw that allows them to shut down a party at 11 a.m.," he said, "but they can't shut down noisy vehicles." Keetch is convinced that the truck that is c ausing all the noise does not have a muffler, and that if it does, it is a very small one or one that allows more noise than other mufflers. "It's not the fault of the muffler shops because if they

don't put the muffler on the person will go to another place that will," he said. Keetch said he isn't the only one annoyed by the noise, which wakes up the entire neighbourhood. "They have a l ot of the same concerns as I do," he said. "I've talked to them about getting a l obby started to address the problem." Keech said the City of Edmonton has currently or used to have a b ylaw that restricts the noise coming from motorcycles to 87 decibels. He

also noted that the laws are different in B.C., where all vehicles are required to have a muffler and a c atalytic converter before they are allowed on the road. Keetch received sympathy from City councillors September 12, who said that other citizens are concerned about the noise as well. "I have had people on 65 Street talk to me about the same problem," said councillor Gerry Galenza. "There is a l ot of tire squealing, and it isn't just the mufflers."

City manager Damian Herle told council he would conduct research to see whether the City of Camrose can develop a bylaw that would require vehicles to have a working muffler installed. Keetch is asking that anyone who has similar concerns about noise from vehicles contact him at 780-678-4598 or the City of Camrose at 780672-4426. "The police have told me that if there was a b ylaw in place they could do a lot more than what they are doing now," he said.

Sahakarini is h osting its annual Hike for Hope at Miquelon Lake again this year. On Sunday, September 25, folks can come out to enjoy the beautiful trails in support of Sahakarini's project partners. Starting from Group Site 2, participants could join in the timed run or walk beginning at 1:30, or set out at their own pace. The group site, featuring one of the park’s new shelters, will have plenty of space for games, family fun and a free barbecue meal in the afternoon. "The shelter is qu ite large, and will be a nice refuge if the weather won’t cooperate," said Sahakarini's Tif McNaughton. Hikers are asked to make a donation in support of Sahakarini’s partners. Sahakarini is currently working in India, Uganda and Guatemala on a wide variety of development projects. A display will feature some of the recent activities of our partners, and information about Sahakarini’s annual theme, Sahakarini, the MDGs and Me. "The MDGs, or Millennium Development Goals, are an international project led by the United Nations," said McNaughton. "These affect community planning here in Canada, and connect Canadians to even the smallest plans and ideas around the world. How is t hat? What are they, and what do they mean to each of us? And how exactly will eight little goals do anything about global poverty?"

PRESENTATION FOR FOUNDERS DAYS

PEN POINTS by Berdie Fowler

Work provides opportunity and dignity “Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work.” Those were the words of Thomas A. Edison, the man who enlightened the world with his invention of the electric light bulb. Although his words were uttered over one hundred years ago, they may shed some light on one of Canada’s most worrisome concerns today – high unemployment and, in some cases, labour shortages. My recollection of the Edison quote was sparked by words of the Hon. Jason Kenney, Canada’s Minister of Citizenship, Immigration and Multiculturalism, when he was in Camrose last week. Addressing the current unemployment situation, he said that his government’s goal was to get more young Canadians involved in the work force. Juxtaposed was his explanation of why his department is bringing in temporary foreign workers to work in fish processing plants in Atlantic Canada where there is double digit unemployment. “How does that make sense?” he remarked. He further wondered why somebody would sit at home, presumably collecting employment insurance, when there is decent work down the road. Even in Alberta, with seven percent unemployment, he explained the need to allow the entry of a l imited number of foreign workers because employers find that young Canadians born here are not willing to do the work their parents and grandparents would do in the past. Foreign workers will do the work because they see in it opportunity to realize their dreams of eventually owning a home and/or starting a business – something that appears to be an impossible dream in their homelands. Notice the number of immigrants who eventually take the initiative to create employment for themselves by establishing their own business enterprises! Kenney suggests that our society has been wrong in telling our young Canadians that professional careers are more valuable services than others. This reminds me of an event a number of years ago when the garbage collectors in the city of New York went out on strike. The uncollected refuse piled high, became infested with flies and rodents, while the fear of disease and other health hazards increased. Some dignitary at the time pointed out that the collection of garbage was as essential to maintaining the health of a community as was the service of health care professionals. Human dignity, well-being and self-esteem are all tied to work; there is dignity in performing well any work that needs to be done regardless of the category into which it falls – professional, trades, or whatever. By doing any job well each of us can make the world a better place for both ourselves and others. It is folly to think that one can spend the first part of one’s life waiting for the ideal employment opportunity and expect an ample harvest in the second half. Hard hat, white smock, or suit and tie, there is dignity in the work performed. May no one miss an opportunity just because it wears overalls and looks like work!

Dear Editor:

Having helped build many of the transmission lines in this province, I k now enough about AC and DC to realize these proposed DC lines are not for Albertans. AESO even admits that DC lines should be at least 750 km long. ATCO’s proposed HVDC line is given both as 485 km and 530 km either one falls short of 750 km. ATCO seems little concerned about Albertans’ health, homes, and livelihoods. F or example, one of ATCO’s criteria for routing the lines is ma intaining an adequate separation (preferably 1 km) from runways and (preferably 1.6 km) from the ends of runways. But, for my aerial spraying operation and proposed runway we will be less than 800 meters away. Additional evidence of ATCO’s disregard for Albertans is the set-back limits for “selected wild life species” versus the set-back for humans and their residences. “Active nests” of at least eight bird species have set-back limits of 1,000 meters. Another three species and a certain snake have set-back limits of 500 meters. There is a 4 00 m set-back for some frogs and toads. But, when asked about the set-back for humans, and their residence. ATCO’s VP Todd McLaren stated “ATCO endeavors to maintain a 150 meter distance from the ROW edge to a residence.” Now, at campaign end, Morton claims to have “reversed his stance” on Bill 50, and the proposed HVDC lines, saying if Alberta used gas generation, “especially in the south,” we “wouldn’t need those two big transmission lines heading south.” So his conclusion is that these lines are not needed. Where has he been all this time? There was no “proof of need”; the lines were simply declared “critical” by Bill 50. There has been no independent cost analysis, yet both Alta Link, and ATCO have already launched work on the lines. ATCO has sent out “Updates” announcing this summer’s work, despite their AUC Hearing not being scheduled until January 2012. Just this past week ATCO sent a package indicating the "temporary workspace(s) needed.” ATCO has already spent a bundle at Vegreville setting up a yard and stockpiling materials. They are currently negoti-

ating with Forestburg Council to “establish a 1 50-200 person work camp.” Why is ATCO so confident their AUC application will be approved in January 2012? Is it already a done-deal, with or without AUC approval? Is it because ATCO is reimbursed, on a c ost-plus basis, whether the project goes ahead or not? Morton says he has “reversed his stance” on the lines … but talk is cheap. Does he think “reversing his stance” will get him enough votes to capture the Premier’s chair? How is he going stop these lines? Bob Matthiessen, Daysland Dear Editor: The AESO Response (Camrose Booster, Sept 6/11) is inaccurate on a number of issues, e.g. AESO’s statement that no HVDC transmission line “running from Ft. McMurray to Brooks” exists, “nor has one been proposed.” I h ave the AESO Long-term Transmission Plan 2009. Their map (p. 34) shows transmission lines, AC from Ft. McMurray to the Heartland area, and DC from the Heartland area to the Montana border, which are described (p. 35) a s “critical transmission development.” This same AESO document (p. 55) g ives the total for these critical projects as $16,585 billion. AESO is n ow focused on the lines from Northeastern Alberta to the “Southern Area,” which of course includes the yet unapproved ATCO EATL DC line. We can place bets that those “priorities” will shift to include that Montana link as soon as the DC line hits Southern Alberta. It will have to if Alberta is t o honour the 2003 AB Energy Minister Murray Smith’s export promises given the US, plus further promises (2006) for 2.5 million MW/h by 2020. Meanwhile the (proposed) Eastern Alberta Transmission Line (EATL) project is moving ahead as though it has already been “approved,” but the AUC Hearing isn’t scheduled till January 2012. ATCO has sent out updates stating it is w orking on EATL this summer, and is currently (Sept 9/11) negotiating with Forestburg Council to “establish a 1 50-200 person work camp” there. All this for a proposed line that is not yet approved. The sad pa rt of this is that Albertans are footing the bill for all this – on a c ost-plus basis. IF ATCO’s proposal gets rejected in January, ATCO will not be out any money – t heir expenses are paid regardless. Just a f ew additional discrepancies in the Sept. 6 AESO response (space prevents listing them all): BC-Alberta comparisons are not “incredibly difficult.” BC has 4.5 million people, generates 14 to 15,000 MW,

and is re inforcing their system for $4.3 billion; Alberta has 3.7 million, generates 13,400 MW, and is re inforcing our system for $16,500 billion (four times as much as BC). Tell me again the proposed HVDC lines in Alberta are not a massive “overbuild,” even if we go with AESO’s prediction that consumption will double in the next 20 years. The cost of building these HVDC lines, if we use AESO’s formula of $1/month for every billion spent…comes to $13.50 or $16.50/month for DC lines of absolutely no benefit to Albertans. We are subsidizing AltaLink/ATCO profits. Industry (according to IPCAA ) consumes 61 per cent of Alberta’s electricity. AESO says “these customers require electricity on a 24/7 basis.” IPCAA says many of these industries already generate power of their own and would sell it back to the grid if the grid could handle that. Likewise the wind farms generate electricity that they would put into the grid if proper small AC interties were available. AESO, however, ignores those greener, less costly options. But AESO forges on with excessive HVDC lines, which don’t benefit Albertans at all. Marion Leithead, Bawlf Dear Editor: This letter is in response to Mary Warke's letter in the Sept. 13 issue of The Camrose Booster. It seems that Mary is quick to blame all the world's problems on young people. As far as the Duggan Mall parking lot is concerned, it is not only young people who speed through. I have on many occasions seen middle-aged men and, yes, senior citizens driving through at unacceptable speeds. I also on occasion myself have done the same thing. If the business owners are concerned about the speed of people driving through, perhaps they should talk to the mall management about installing some sort of traffic control such as concrete medians, stop signs and speed bumps. Also, a posted speed limit would help I'm sure. I also wonder just how much the strap or a switch really worked on young people to teach them that violence is okay as long as it is being used to correct wrong behaviour. I am not against spanking children, but I a m against authority figures being allowed to beat people to get them to submit to rules. As the parent of four young people I h ave tried to teach them to be respectful citizens. I can only hope that I have done just that. Not all young people are given everything on a s ilver platter. Maybe Mary should do some research into these things before blaming it all on young people. Brent Bonter, Camrose

Felines searching for home

Welcome Home At Sunrise your independence is important to us.

By Murray Green

The Battle River Animal Protection Society (BRAPS) currently has eight felines in need of a loving home. The three adult cats and five kittens will be at Global Pet Foods on 48 Avenue on September 24 from noon to 3 p.m. "If anyone is l ooking for a p et, we encourage him or her to drop in and see the cats that need a home," said BRAPS president Laura Houseman. If you are a dog owner who likes to go for walks, then BRAPS has an event to mark on your calendar. BRAPS will be holding its fourth annual Pet Walk on October 2 f rom noon to 3 p .m. Walkers can drop by the pet store to pick up pledge forms. "Last year we raised $2,000 during the Pet Walk," said Laura. The funds help BRAPS with the expenses of taking care of animals until suitable owners are found. The community rallied to save a cat's life this spring. Laura received funding help from volunteers to send feline Violet to the operating table. The long haired tortoiseshell cat was found limping. Her elbow was totally separated from the upper and lower bone. "Dr. Scott Clifford at the Camrose Veterinary Group performed the surgery needed and she now has a good home. We had a wonderful response from the community after a story appeared in The Camrose Booster." To help BRAPs with the cost of operations or medical bills, you can donate funds to the organization at the west end Battle River Credit Union. For more information on the Pet Walk contact BRAPS at braps@hotmail.ca or phone 780-678-5713 or 780-6795607.

Classic lines with colourful accessories

Consult Hollie for weather-ready styles for every temperature! New clients are welcome. Book your appointment today.

When the winter winds start blowing there’s nothing better than wrapping up in a coat which will not only keep us warm and cozy but will allow us to look stylish even on the coldest winter day. The selection now available in stores is very classic, a look of timelessness; there is nothing flashy or tawdry, just classic lines and sober colours which we can liven up with more colourful and original accessories. The classic cut and simple lines of the trench-coat style made of worsted gabardine, suits just about every figure and all occasions. Double-breasted styles are making waves on the fashion front as well. Capes were also much in evidence on the fashion runways, making a b ig comeback this season. Several designers propose long or short versions, giving a vintage touch to any outfit. The wrap coat, very popular in the '80s and '90s, has also attained the status of classic, giving it pride of place in the fall and winter collections of many designers. This loose and belted overcoat makes for a cozy cocoon especially if made from cashmere or alpaca. It’s characterized by padded shoulders and wide, notched collars. Despite a few flashes of colour on the runways – blue, red, violet – sober colours, suitable for any occasion, such as grey, chamois and black seem much more popular. Plain fabrics dominate but some models catch the eye thanks to pretty paisley patterns or tartans.

Fashions inspired by nature This year, back to school collections for children and teenagers are inspired by nature; by the forests and the fields. But this doesn’t prevent them from having a touch of eccentricity and originality. Quite the contrary! So this fall, colours such as grey, beige, chlorophyll green, peacock blue and berry red can be found everywhere you look. Textures and shapes are also inspired by nature; the effect of light and shadow play on many of the patterns and prints. Blends of wool, organic cotton, brushed cotton, denim, corduroy, velvet and fake fur wrap our children in warmth and softness. Multi-layering is as popular as ever, particularly during the fall when temperatures drop and cool winds prevail. Dresses, checked skirts, shirts worn with leggings or jeans, and woollen sweaters draped around the shoulders are all worn in a folksy, romantic style. A sleeveless vest can be added when necessary as well as all those other seasonal accessories: scarf or shawl, hat, belt, purses, boots and pantyhose. For her as well as for him, woollens are omnipresent. These range from fine knits with animal prints to thicker woollens with jacquard patterns. The same applies to the sleeveless vest with a f ur collar, or the same vest in comfortable cotton fleece; it all depends on the weather. As for tee-shirts and jeans, they are still very much in style.

Here is what characterizes this winter’s fashion trends: a huge mix of styles, materials ... and seasons! In the windows of your favourite stores, you’ll be sure to notice a lot of details using fake furs and sheepskins, as much on coats, jackets and small tops as on dresses and pants. These finishing touches are grafted onto lighter materials and are available in all the natural shades: beige; chocolate; cream ... The other huge success predicted for this winter is pa tterned woollens, sweaters and jackets that look as though they have just been cast off of our grandmothers’ knitting needles — especially the jacquards in rust and camel tones. These heavy knits are worn over summery-looking dresses, or over shorts and high-waisted, belted pants, similar to last summer’s trends. Designers are also generous with military touches: floods of braided jackets, epaulettes and outfits inspired by uniforms. Khaki and navy blue are, of course, the starring colours in this latest wave. Stripes have been very successful for several seasons and monochromes of whites and beiges are very much in style. Finally, a surprising trend is taking shape in many fashion houses; down quilting in the form of skirts, dresses and huge necklines. Will this fashion reach the street? It’s up to you to decide if you dare!

The CAMROSE BOOSTER September 20, 2011

Crowfoot debuts On September 21 the University of Alberta’s Augustana Campus in Camrose will host the world première of Crowfoot, a contemporary piece of classical music written by 2010 campus graduate and Métis composer Nicholas Howells. The piece celebrates the great chief after whom the federal constituency of Crowfoot is named. Raised in Cremona west of Carstairs, Nicholas is but one of a h andful of young aboriginal composers active in classical music in Canada. “The idea [for Crowfoot] was to write a piece that embraced or helped me explore my Native heritage,” said Nicholas. “One of the first ideas I h ad was, when I’m teaching my young students from beginner books, we always play Indian Dance or Indian Song. These pieces always consist of a drumming, two-note, left-hand chord separated by a f ifth and a simple melody in the right hand. That’s about all that you find for something that represents Aboriginal music in the repertoire for beginning students. “I started working with that and felt really good with all these ideas but, as I got writing, it actually became quite difficult. I was writing a piece about my history and all of a sudden I started having to ask myself all the big questions that people end up having to ask themselves. Who am I? Where do I c ome from? Where do I f it in? That was quite eye opening, but it also made it really difficult.” The world première of Nicholas’ piece Crowfoot, debuting on the Augustana Campus of the U of A (4901 - 46 Avenue, Camrose) on Wednesday, Sept. 21, 2011, at 7:30 pm. Tickets will be available at the door. Nicholas’ work will make its international debut later this fall in Tokyo, Japan, as part of a recital by professors Milton Schlosser, piano, and Kathleen Corcoran, soprano, at the Canadian Embassy’s Oscar Peterson Theatre.

Working horses compete at Kingman By Murray Green

The seventh annual Working Mountain Horse Competition and Select Sale will be held on Sept. 23 to 25. Every year at the end of September, Wild Deuce Retreats and Outfitting hosts the competition and sale near Kingman. Wild Deuce started the Working Mountain Horse competition as a way to market the versatility and athleticism of their amazing horses. This event has grown to encompass three days and has attendance of over 1,000 people. "We really want this weekend to be about quality horses, quality shopping, a c hance to learn something new, fundraising for STARS, and always, about having fun," said Brenda Murdock, who owns Wild Deuce with Terri McKinney. All days include a Back Country Tradeshow, a silent auction for STARS, a U FA sponsored demo ring, campfires each night and the weekend is fully catered, with free camping. " We are very excited to announce some new events this year. The Amazing Backcountry Race will be held on Saturday for the open competitors who have competed on Friday already and would like to do some more riding. Entrance into this new event will be by donation, full proceeds of which will go to STARS. Terry Grant of Man Tracker fame will be joining us for the weekend as a guest judge." The STARS helicopter will be landing on site. "We are honoured to have the helicopter joining us on Saturday morning for the presentation to STARS," said Brenda. "We have been working on this for a number of years and are thrilled that they are able to attend." The challenging trail course on which horses are competing

is modelled after obstacles that riders encounter when traveling in the mountains. "Its uniqueness is nothing like you have ever seen before. There are great sponsors such as Richmond Transport, Total Orthotics, Fosters Covered Wagons, Lammle's, Summit Outfitters Supplies, Riverview Vet, Dogspaw, Dakota Rentals Inc. and many more. Prize money pays out over $3,500." Youth and adult competitions take place Friday, Sept. 23. The divisions are open to everyone who wishes to test their horsemanship on Wild Deuce’s trail course. You do not have to enter a horse in the sale to compete. To register, e-mail to competition@wilddeuce.com. On Saturday, Sept. 24, the public can watch the consigned horses compete through the course. Then on Sunday, Sept. 25, starting at 10:30 a.m. there is a tack auction, followed by the horse sale. The event has raised funds

for STARS every year. This year, to mark the support, a STARS helicopter will be landing near the event. "Every year, Wild Deuce holds a f undraiser for STARS in the way of a si lent auction. Last year was the 25th anniversary of STARS and our goal was to raise $10,000 for them," explained Brenda. "People helped us to surpass this goal to raise $12,000, so thank you to everyone out there. We would like 2011 to be just as successful. In addition to the Silent Auction, proceeds from the Amazing Backcountry Race on Saturday will also go to STARS and proceeds from Man Tracker autographs and merchandise sold will go to STARS. Visit the Wild Deuce web site www.wilddeuce.com for more information on the working mountain horse competition. To donate to the STARS Silent Auction, contact Tracy at tdehoop@xplornet.com or at 780-464-0888. Tax donation receipts are available.

International students make mark on Augustana By Dan Jensen

There's a d istinct international flavour at the University of Alberta's Augustana campus this fall. "We have around 47 international students this year," said Feisal Kirumira, special advisor to the dean for international students." While the majority of the students come from Asia and Africa, there are several other countries represented as well, including Norway, the Russian Federation, Netherlands, Mexico, Greece, France and Colombia. "Statistically you will find that every second international student comes from a d ifferent country," said Kirumira. "We don't have a large number from one country, we have more from really different countries." The number of international students is down considerably from before the merger of the University of Alberta and Augustana, when lower tuitions at Augustana brought the number up to as high as 200. "The fact that the tuition is higher now means that a l ot of students cannot really make it to our campus," said Kirumira. International students have always been drawn to Augustana by the smaller class sizes and the ability to interact one-onone with professors, but also the sense of community that comes from living in a sm all(er) and friendly community. "A community with loving and caring people like Camrose is not that easy to find," said Kirumira. "People who live in Camrose are used to it, but it is different for those who come from somewhere else. I have noticed that the students who come here really treasure the interaction they have with their fellow students from Canada as well as the community." Word of mouth also has a lot to do with attracting international students. "Some of the international students are here because of the stories that have been told them by brothers, sisters or friends who were here in the past," said Kirumira. Two of the most well-known international student alumni are Duncan Wambugu, who is now studying for a Ph D in music in the United States, and Armin Habib, who is now a community

The University of Alberta, Augustana Campus raised five international flags in celebration of welcoming foreign students to Camrose on September 14. Students from Belize, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Kuwait, South Sudan and Tanzania are attending Augustana this term. Student Winie Adenyi of South Sudan points to the flag of her one-month-old country.

health specialist. Habib returned to Augustana during International Week last February, where he spoke to students about how, in addition to teaching him to think creatively, Augustana gave him a sense that he didn't have to be locked down. He also told the students it was interactions with a family in Camrose that set him on his way to success after a

year in which he failed a number of courses. "He realized that Canadians have the same issues as his family did back h ome in Kenya and that Canada could be his home if he wanted it to be," said Kirumira. "It was an experience he could only have received at Augustana." International students who

return to Augustana after their first year receive a $400 bursary to help make up for the fact that they have to pay almost 200 per cent more for tuition than their Canadian counterparts, and are eligible to apply for any meritbased bursaries and scholarships. "The prospective office does a good job of informing the inter-

national students of the scholarship opportunities available," said Kirumira. International students have the option of belonging to an International Students' Club which plans events such as t-shirt sales to raise money for scholarships and gives them a united voice in the event they have any concerns or grievances. The club also organizes several social activities throughout the year. "One of the things we have each year is a thanksgiving dinner where we cook food from different countries and eat it together," said Kirumira. "The meal helps the students feel less lonely at a time when all the Canadian students are off celebrating with their own families. We usually have the dean attend, as well as other faculty members." International Week, in February, features fashion shows and presentations, during which students talk about issues that are important to them. "This year we had students talking about the upcoming independence of Southern Sudan," said Kirumira. "For the next one we may have students talk about the uprisings in Egypt and Libya." In spite of their own challenges financially, international students are always happy to help others. "They've held fund-raisers to help the victims of the earthquake in Haiti, and they are planning to do one to help the famine victims in eastern Africa," said Kirumira. "It is rea lly quite interesting to see how much motivation they have, even given the differential fee." Having international students around them has been a benefit for Canadian students at Augustana, who have been able to learn about new cultures. "They get interested in the life outside this community that we live in and see that the world is a global place," said Kirumira. "They are able to realize that if they are studying philosophy or psychology that if there isn't a market for careers in that field in Canada they can always go somewhere else. I w as able to help one student who was majoring in environmental studies get an internship in Uganda. She got interested in the country because her roommate was from there and thought that was something she would really like to do."

Battle River School Division receives good news on fuel subsidy Diane Hutchinson, Communications, Battle River School Division

There was good news to share at the Sept. 8 m eeting of the Battle River School Division Board, as Trustees learned of a new government fuel program that will offset increased costs for running school busses. According to information received from Alberta Education, the Fuel Price Contingency Program will provide a s ubsidy to school divisions based on a formula that takes into account the price of diesel fuel, kilometres travelled by busses and an additional calculation for rural routes. The new program replaces a fuel subsidy grant that was

cancelled last year, resulting in a $300,000 funding loss to the BRSD Transportation department. Battle River was one of many school divisions which lobbied MLAs last spring to bring back a f uel subsidy program, in light of decreased funding and increasing fuel costs. Reinstatement of a f uel program will help address the funding loss, as well as offset the higher fuel prices Albertans have been experiencing in recent months. Stop the Cuts

Battle River School Division will soon be posting Stop the Cuts campaign material on its website. The campaign is being run by the Alberta Teachers'

Association, supported by both the Alberta School Boards Association and the Alberta School Councils Association. Stop the Cuts is intended to bring attention to the need for increased education funding across the province. Enrollment declines continue

The biggest issue facing Battle River School Division continues to be the declining number of students living in east central Alberta. Student populations in rural schools have gone down steadily over the last decade, with significant drops in each of the last three years. BRSD had projected a 3. 5% decline in student numbers for the 2011-2012 school year, but early

attendance records show the drop could be even more than projected. The projection was based on the number of children entering Grade 1 t his fall being about half the number of students that finished grade 12 in June. The additional drop appears to be caused by families moving out of the area. H owever, attendance numbers tend to change throughout the first month of school and counts will be finalized on September 30. Currently, BRSD has 38 fewer teaching positions this year than they had in 2010-2011, and a similar number fewer educational assistants. There have also been bus routes eliminated and

staffing adjustments made in the areas of maintenance, transportation and division office. A busy fall

In addition to all the activities happening at schools throughout the fall, the BRSD Board of Trustees also has a n umber of other items on the agenda. During the next month, trustees will be attending sessions on contract negotiation, understanding assessment and participating in an Alberta Education discussion on transformation in education.

Camrose Open Door taking steps to purchase Gardner College property By Dan Jensen

The Camrose Open Door Association is t aking the first steps towards the purchase of the property that, until this past summer, made up Gardner College. Camrose Open Door Association executive director Randal Nickel told City council Sept. 12 that an offer by the association to purchase the property has been accepted by the Gardner College board of directors. Emergency Shelter

The association is p lanning to use the dormitory building to shelter at-risk youth on an emergency and transitional basis, and to rent the main building and a corner house until such time as they are needed for future programs. "We believe we have an opportunity, by purchasing the Gardner College property to add some additional housing supports to what we currently provide, to not only meet the crisis needs but also to add some transitional housing," said Nickel. The Camrose Open Door Association began partnering with Gardner College in 2009 to use one floor of the dormitory to provide housing for up to eight youth and young adults per night. Up until that time it was renting two hotel rooms per night and finding that the demand for shelter was more than it could meet. "When we heard recently that, unfortunately, Gardner College decided to close their doors, we (the Camrose Open Door board) were obviously also concerned about the impact this would have on our housing services," said Nickel. Financing

Camrose Open Door has financing in place that will allow it to cover about half of the purchase price, leaving the other half to be financed by mortgage. The task now is t o obtain final approvals for the zoning permits and ensure that everything complies with City of Camrose bylaws. Nickel believes the completed purchase will enable the Camrose Open Door Association to do a better job of preparing and supporting youth in crisis to move to a h ealthy lifestyle. He added that the transitional housing that is offered will provide a b ridge between the crisis shelter situations and housing independence.

"That," he explained, "is really what we are trying to provide." Nickel feels the social and economic costs of the Camrose Open Door Association not doing something for youth who are at risk is much higher than the cost of providing services. He noted at the meeting that providing youths with educational and employment training and opportunities, stable secure housing and essential lifeskills helps them along the positive path to independence and self sustainability as contributing members of society. Nickel said the fact that the Open Door was able to provide shelter to a y outh last winter possibly stopped a young person from committing a criminal act just so he would have a warm place to sleep. "It saved the police from having to respond to a call and other costs that would have happened," he said. Positive response

City councillor Gerry Galenza spoke with enthusiasm about the planned purchase, saying it will improve the quality of life in Camrose. Councillor John Howard cautioned that the City of Camrose needs to do due diligence to ensure that the requirements that go along with change of ownership, including the need to bring facilities up to code, do not cause any surprises for the Camrose Open Door down the road. "Let's not leave the Open Door hanging six months from now when we come back and say 'oh, by the way'," he said. Councillor Brandon Blatz encouraged the Camrose Open Door Association to attend a meeting of the Camrose Affordable Housing committee, which has money available for transitional housing projects. "We are kind of looking for where we can allocate it," he said. "There has to be a c ertain amount that goes towards transitional housing." Camrose Open Door has provided emergency shelter to an average of five youth per night over the last year, for a t otal of 1,900 nights of housing for 56 young people. Data shows that 80 per cent of the youth come from the City of Camrose, with 12 to 15 per cent coming from surrounding communities and three to five per cent coming from farther distances.

Vikings plan trip to Cuba Submitted by Augustana

The University of Alberta, Augustana Campus, women's basketball team wants to play in Cuba during the holiday break. The Vikings' host squad is planning an exchange trip to Cuba. Coach Leanne Shenton said the trip will be a great experience for the team, not only because they will be playing highly competitive games, but because of the cultural and historic component as well. "I went on the sport-cultural exchange as a student athlete here at Augustana with my team. It's always highly rewarding to travel as a team and to learn more about another country's background, history and culture, as well as play basketball. It's a complete experience," Leanne said. However, before the team can leave for the week-long trip to Cuba, they need to finish fund-raising by Nov. 1. Shenton said there is still $15,000 to raise until then, and the team is trying to get enough funds any way they can. "We're really trying to look for more Adopt-A-Viking participants and we're volunteering our team for work hours. So if a business or a group of people want to book the Vikings, they can contact me," she said. Additionally, the team is looking to put out a calendar that partners with local businesses and by putting on a three-on-three tournament Sept. 18. The team will also be hosting an all-female coaching tournament to promote women in sport on Sept. 22. "It's really important because female participation in sport, specifically in coaching, has decreased tremendously over the years. This gives them opportunity to not only have female mentorship from myself but they receive female mentorship when they see other females coaching. Hopefully they're able to look at coaching and involvement in sport and also think about doing that some day," Leanne said.

New City of Camrose economic development officer Ray Telford is going to have his work cut out for him over the next few months. Telford will be putting together a new economic development strategy designed to create jobs and attract more skilled workers. He will also be working to strengthen the role of Camrose as a regional centre. "I know from my talks with different people that is something we can build upon," he said. "We need to make sure that we are being very supportive and welcoming of new business." Telford comes to Camrose from the town of Drumheller, where he was economic development officer and communications officer for the past 12 years. Prior to that he spent 26 years in broadcasting, starting as an 18-year-old radio a nnouncer in Edson before working his way up to the position of general manager of Energy 98 in Fort St. John and Q91 in Red Deer. Camrose has always been a city to which Telford has wanted to move. "As economic development officer in Drumheller I w as in contact with Dennis Twomey (the former City of Camrose economic development officer), Tourism Camrose and City Center Camrose so I became aware that Camrose had a lot to offer," said Telford. "There's an excellent selection of retail stores from the big box variety to the specialty shops, and it has every convenience that a m ajor city would have," he said. "The real nice thing is that it is only a five minute drive to get to wherever you want to go." Telford has also been impressed with the opportunity Camrose presents to attend concerts and performances, and how volunteers so read ily get behind special events. "I've already seen quite a few advertisements for upcoming events," he said. Telford and his wife have four grown children who live in Alberta and B.C. and two grandchildren who live in Drumheller. "My wife will be moving here as soon as we sell our house," he said.

FASD Awareness Day in Camrose By Dan Jensen

The successes of families and individuals affected by Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) was celebrated in a ceremony at Camrose's Founders' Square Sept. 9. "While it is important to recognize that someone with FASD may be hurt, it is equally important to recognize that they are not broken," said Prairie Central FASD coordinator and ceremony emcee Stacy Wolbeck. "Proper diagnosis and a supportive circle of friends, family and professionals can help guide a person with FASD to a happy and successful life." A minute of silence was observed as the bells of St. Francis Xavier Church were rung nine times at 9 a.m. t o reflect on the lives of those affected by FASD, women struggling with addiction, and on the importance of supporting women to abstain from alcohol for the nine months of pregnancy. "FASD Awareness Day is an important day to recognize the struggle that many women have in abstaining from alcohol during their pregnancy," said Wolbeck. "No mother wants to intentionally harm her unborn child. There are often many factors that cause a woman to drink while pregnant and it is i mportant to recognize that alcoholism is a v ery complicated disorder that requires professional help and time to overcome." FASD is a term used to describe a wide range of physical, mental and behavioural effects that are caused when a f etus is exposed to alcohol. It is a lifelong condition that can be 100 per cent prevented by abstaining from alcohol during conception and pregnancy. Because FASD can affect each person very differently, it can often be very hard to recognize and diagnose. Some people may show physical signs of the disorder, such as flattened cheekbones, small eye sockets, thin upper lip and indistinctive lip groove, but in many cases, there are no physical signs at all. "People with FASD often have several neurological issues that can inhibit their ability to

Prairie Central FASD coordinator Stacy Wolbeck gave an overview of FASD.

learn, concentrate, remember, communicate, focus, control their emotions, adjust to changing

environments, sleep well, and manage time and money," said Wolbeck.

FASD coordinator for Samson Cree Annette Cutknife spoke personally at the ceremony of her experiences as the mother of a 22year-old son who was diagnosed with the disorder. Cutknife said she had 11 sittings where she consumed eight or more drinks in her first trimester of pregnancy, two sittings with eight or more drinks in her second semester, and one sitting with eight or more drinks in her third trimester. She said that even though she didn't want to admit it, she knew that there was something wrong with her son from the very first day. "He didn't even cry and I knew that was a sig nal for me that there was something wrong," she said. "I felt I had to cover it up for as long as I could." Cutknife said that when her son (Daniel) started school he couldn't do the simplest tasks, and was very hyper. It was only when she was confronted by a teacher about her son's deficiencies that she agreed to have him assessed. "The diagnosis at that time was Fetal Alcohol Effects, mild to moderate," she said. "Today there is no such thing as mild because the damage in the brain is p ermanent, irreversible." After that diagnosis and further talks with school officials, Cutknife began attending FASD conferences and passing on whatever information she gained. She also went with her son to school classes and speech therapists to help with his verbal communication skills. "I continued to go with him in high school," she said. "The teacher aide thought I was crazy because he looked normal, like there was nothing wrong with him, and felt that he should be on his own and do his own things." Cutknife treated her son to a Hummer limo ride and a banquet when he graduated from high school in Wetaskiwin in 2008. "The point of having a family banquet for me was to honour him, as well as to let the other nieces and nephews know, or show them that if Daniel has this disability and can graduate from high school, so can they."

Annette Cutknife

Cutknife's son currently attends Wetaskiwin's Horizon Centre three times a week where he reads to seniors, unfolds their laundry and calls bingo. He also accompanies his mother when she does presentations. "We have an open mother and son communication that is really powerful for both of us to keep going," said Cutknife. "I said recently I don't know what I would do without him because he keeps me on my toes, keeps me on track, tells me when I have a 12 step meeting, or reminds me when I need to do something. I know as well that he couldn't go without me as well." Boston Pizza, The Canadian Brewhouse, Geo's Sports Lounge, the Norsemen Inn's Gravity Lounge, and O'Shea's Eatery and Ale House are offering free mocktails (non-alcoholic beverages) to pregnant women every Friday during the month of September. The Alice Hotel continuously offers free non-alcoholic beverages to pregnant women, such as pop and juice.

With Blockbuster set to close… who will you be able to count on? B Blockbuster Camrose (and indeed the whole Canadian chain) is ceasing ooperation. This is no longer “news”. The background, however, may be new iinformation to you. This particular store and Movie Gallery, which also closed in recent years, were both viable Camrose businesses! Each was well run with pplenty of consumer demand for product they offered. Both businesses closed as a re result of the debt incurred by rapid expansion and the state of the U.S. economy. Ad Adding to the problem in the U.S. is competition by Redbox kiosks and Netflix mail delivery of DVD’s. Neither of these consumer alternatives is comparatively popular in Canada.

Polls can be misleading, arts centre still needed

By Joy-Anne Murphy

As I write this, I look forward to being interviewed on Labour Day morning for CBC A lberta's Cultureville competition. It's a long story as to how I became the default interviewee, but I h ave had lots of coaching from many dedicated supporters of culture and the arts in Camrose and hope to do our city proud. According to their website, Cultureville's six finalists were chosen by a panel of experts based on "community spirit, originality and passion for culture". It's made me run through the list of how Camrose qualifies as a centre of culture, and once you start looking at it, this city is truly amazing. Give yourself a moment to think: how many organizations that touch on the arts, personal expression, ethnic background, health and well-being, community sports, community support or community spirit do you personally know of in our city? How many are you or your family members, or people you know well, involved in? Culture as defined like this casts a w ide web in Camrose, and touches everyone's lives, everyday. That's why I w as surprised and a little disappointed to see news of a recent poll of Camrose residents suggesting that a n ew pool is a higher priority than the Performing Arts Centre. Not that I d isbelieve that people might have responded that way, just that I think the poll might be asking the wrong question. You just need to count back through the many tireless workers over the years who have painstakingly assembled applications for funding and the many other proposals and documents associated with getting a p roject like this off the ground, or look at the packed City Council chambers every time

this issue has hit the agenda in recent years. Sometimes the way the question is framed leads people toward one answer while precluding another. If you are only presenting certain options, sure it's easier to tally the results, but do you really understand how people prioritize, what they are thinking? One of the items that tops many lists when considering culture in Camrose is the story of the restoration of the Bailey Theatre. With help from a local philanthropist (something that is also a phenomenon of the culture of Camrose), a t ruly committed group of people took this historic facility and made it into a b eautifully refurbished, usable performance space. It's only if you are involved in some of the larger performing organizations in and around Camrose – such as the five dance schools, multiple choirs, community band or two amateur theatre groups – that you may know that the size of the Bailey imposes limitations. Some of the groups can work around the fact that the stage is a bit small, but not all the dance troupes can. Some can figure out more spaces to store their props and costumes, and just share the change rooms, but not all. And many of them have so many members – especially those involving children – that they would need to put on more than one show to accommodate their entire audience. It's my hope that Camrose wins the Northern finals of Cultureville (Camrosians and friends of Camrose can help by going online and voting!). But beyond that, I really hope this highlights for everyone the enormous value we already place on the culture of our city; how we value what we have and are willing to continue to support and encourage our culture of community spirit and the arts, and those who are passionate about them.

Harv-Fest fall outdoor celebration September 24 By Murray Green

Even though we had a w et spring and a c ool start to the summer, we still have plenty to be thankful for. Joanne Hildebrandt, owner of JoJo's Maze Craze, wants people to gather at her place for a Harv-Fest fall outdoor celebration on September 24. A dunk tank will be set up to raise funds for the Ronald McDonald House in Edmonton. "My granddaughter was born at 25 weeks and she was in the hospital for almost four months," Joanne explained. "My step-daughter

and the father had to stay at the Ronald McDonald House and I thought it was such an amazing facility. So, this year we rented a dunk tank and all of the proceeds will go to the Ronald McDonald House to give something back." Along with the corn labyrinth challenge, there will be many events planned for families to enjoy. The corn maze is designed like a scarecrow and has a trivia course where you have to answer questions to pick up clues. GPS systems are offered to help people find their way around.

"We have one fee for all of the activities on the day," said Joanne. "It was a huge success last year and I want to improve on it every year. We have clowns, face painting and a fa rmers' market. My goal with the farmers' market is that it grows and grows. I want to have fresh products from the fields, home-made crafts and preserves. I w ant things that are hand made to be on display and available." An 18-hole mini golf course was designed with all age groups in mind. Two inflatables for

bouncing fun and slides have been added. Ken's Critters petting zoo will be an active place for children. JoJo's had pumpkins growing for the sling shot event, but a touch of frost has already hit them. "If the pumpkins are okay, they will be available. We will have a c hildren's train running through a t rail area. We have candy apples and roasted corn available. It will just be a fun day." The day will be like an early Thanksgiving. "I grew up on a

farm, and one of the things I remember is a community picnic. It is a c elebration for the fall. It would bring the whole community together before winter. I remember it as being such a good family time. That is what I want to create," said Joanne. "Because we are an outdoor facility and in an agricultural area, I t hought this is perfect." The Harv-Fest goes from 11 a.m. t o 5 p .m. To visit the corn maze, take Highway 26 east of Camrose and follow the signs.

County set to take over Ervick water operations By Murray Green

Camrose County is in the process of writing a letter to the City of Camrose to indicate its intention to take over the Ervick Water Distribution System on March 13, 2012. The council agreed to start the water learning process with the Ervick system and then in the future, slowly take over other water systems to eliminate the go-between with landowners and the county. "If we are going into the water services business, then let's get into it," said County administrator Steve Gerlitz. "It's not good business to always rely on other municipalities to do it for us." Councillors agreed that the response times would be quicker if it is handled in-house. The decision was made at the Sept. 13 regular council meeting. Currently the City handles the operations for the County. The County must give the City six months notice of any changes. The County will budget accordingly for personnel and resources to take over the Ervick Water operations and maintenance next year. A c urrent employee will handle the duties next year.

Three defencemen at junior challenge camp By Murray Green The Camrose Kodiaks sent three defencemen to the Canada West evaluation camp in Canmore on Sept. 11 to 15. Craig Bokenfohr, Sam Jardine and Jonathan Lashyn were among the 60 players who attended the camp to prepare for the World Junior A Ch allenge. The players were divided into three teams and played a series of intersquad games, in addition to daily practices. The Canada West roster is comprised of players from the British Columbia Hockey League (BCHL), Alberta Junior Hockey League (AJHL), Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League (SJHL), Manitoba Junior Hockey League (MJHL) and Superior International Junior Hockey League (SIJHL). The evaluation camp roster was selected by Canada West head coach Kent Lewis (Powell River, BCHL), along with assistant coaches Dean Brockman (Humboldt, SJHL) and Andrew Milne (Canmore, AJHL). “There is a tremendous amount of talent to choose from in Western Canada, and we’re excited about the 60 players we’ve invited to camp,” said Lewis. “These players represent the best of Junior A hockey.” Canada West’s evaluation

camp roster included six goaltenders, 18 defencemen and 36 forwards, 17 players from the AJHL. Four players are returning, from the 2010 World Junior A Challenge including Bokenfohr and Jardine. Nine of the players participated in the 2011 RBC Cup in Camrose. Canada West will play in Group A a t the 2011 World Junior A Challenge, joined by Sweden and the United States, while Canada East, the Czech Republic and Russia will comprise Group B. R ound robin play will run until Wednesday, November 9, with both semifinals taking place Friday, November 11. The gold medal game, which will be shown nationally on TSN/RDS, the official broadcasters of Hockey Canada, is se t for Sunday, November 13. Canada West has appeared in four of the five gold medal games at the World Junior A Challenge.

Chev Orlando Standing out from the crowd

Pete Pastuck McClellan Wheaton Chevrolet By Dan Jensen

The much anticipated arrival of the all-new Chevrolet Orlando at McClellan Wheaton Chevrolet Buick GMC is just days away. Part MPV and part crossover, Orlando is a vehicle that stands out from the crowd. "Orlando demonstrates how innovative design can transform the once ordinary confines of the family vehicle to create a totally different experience for driver and passengers alike," said McClellan Wheaton Chevrolet Buick GMC managing partner Will McClellan. "It's remarkably compact for a v ehicle that can transport up to seven people in comfort." Orlando brings flare to the MPV segment by adopting a bolder look with its low roofline and crossover inspired silhouette, while retaining the distinctive and recognizable Chevrolet front grille. The wheel arches, housing 16- or 18-inch wheels, enhance a bodyin, wheel-out appearance while at the same time ensuring Orlando keeps its agile, sporting stance. Interior versatility While the exterior of the new Chevrolet Orlando is sure to attract plenty of attention, the interior also features many of the latest design cures from Chevrolet, such as the Corvette-inspired dual cockpit and ambient blue backlighting to the centre console. The interior has three rows of "theatre style" seating, and despite the sweeping roof-line, designers have succeeded in raising the second and third rows to allow the Orlando's occupants to get an even view both forwards and to the side without compromising headroom. In fact, headroom in the third row seats in the Orlando is superior to a number of competitor MPVs. Numerous seating configurations are possible with either second or third rows folded independently or together to make a completely flat load area. The second row also has a tumble-fold feature for both the left and right-hand outer seats to allow easy access for passengers into and out of the third row. When the time

comes to hauling large loads of cargo, Orlando's cargo area is one of the most voluminous in the segment, with 1,594 litres available when both rows of seats are folded behind the first row. Like the original concept car, the Orlando obliges with a range of compartments of different shapes and sizes and different locations, including two large cup holders in the centre console, map and bottle holders integrated into the front and rear doors, and a number of individual compartments in the cargo area. The most ingenious is a s torage area hidden behind the front fascia of the audio system, within easy reach of both the driver and passenger. Orlando designers were able to integrate a usefully large area which is revealed by flipping up the face of the audio system, large enough for such items as an MP3 player, sunglasses and wallets. Within the space itself is a standard auxiliary jack and optional USB port for MP3 or iPod connectivity, depending on the trim level. Performance Orlando's award-winning 2.4 litre Ecotec fourcylinder engine is also impressively fuel efficient – in fact, it has an expected best fuel efficiency of any nonhybrid seven-seater on the market. A pair of six-speed transmissions – a six-speed manual and a six-speed automatic – match the standard 2.4 litre Ecotec direct injected I-4 engine, rated at 174 horsepower. The sixspeed manual transmission delivers 6.7 litres per 100 km on the highway and 10.1 litres per 100 km the city, while the six-speed automatic delivers 6.9 litres per 100 km on the highway and 10.6 litres per 100 km in the city. Shifts within the automatic transmission are accomplished by applying and disengaging clutches simultaneously, which provides a m ore direct feel for the driver, compared to the "freewheeling" gear change mechanisms. On the road, a wide selection of shift patterns is adapted to the styles and habits of the driver,

anticipating when maximum acceleration or maximum efficiency is required. The electronic control also adapts to the prevailing wind conditions, including gear shifting when climbing or descending and using engine braking assistance during down changes. Ride Orlando's chassis has been tuned to provide the ideal compromise between ride comfort and agility. McPherson struts, used for front suspension, use hydraulic bushings which are often found in more expensive vehicles, and provide increased ride isolation for passengers and controlled absorption of variable road surfaces. The advanced compound crank (torsion beam) system at the rear is used as it offers the perfect compromise between suspension control combined with savings in weight and space. Safety and security Orlando's chassis and body structure have also been engineered with high reserves of safety as a key consideration. Sixteen-inch ventilated front disc brakes are fitted across the range, with sixteeninch solid discs at the rear and with electronic ABS acting on all wheels. All chassis also benefit from electronic brake force distribution, a system which governs the amount of braking at each w heel to ensure the shortest stopping distances, traction control for when road conditions are wet or slippery, electronic stability control and hydraulic brake assist. Orlando provides a comprehensive list of safety and security features, including: panic brake assist and cornering brake control, StabiliTrak, traction control, six standard airbags, head restraints for all seating positions, pedal release system, power rear child security door locks, child-view mirror, standard OnStar with six months of Directions and Connections service, and Euro NCAP five star rating (one of the top scoring cars in Europe for 2011).

You'll be able to see the new Chevy Orlando at McClellan Wheaton Chevrolet Buick GMC at 3850-48 Avenue, Camrose, following its official launch on October 2. Phone 780-672-7355 and ask for one of the friendly sales professionals.

On the road … The CAMROSE BOOSTER September 20, 2011

By Murray Green

The Camrose County is searching for Wall of Honour nominations and families who deserve Century Farm Awards. The County will be hosting a celebration of the honours and awards on November 8 at the Camrose Regional Exhibition. "We are looking for submissions from farm families who have a 100 or more years of history," said councillor Doug Lyseng. "We had a lot last year, but some farms may have been missed, so t hey can apply this year. It is for farms 100 or more years old who haven't received a Century Farm Award before. We will accept those that are more than 100 years if they qualify." Doug is also seeking people who have contributed a lot to the county over the years for the Wall of Honour. "We want to recognize those who have done a l ot for agriculture and the community. It can be in many ways. It can be through research, farming practices or other ways that help the farming community within the Camrose County. It can be to someone who is contributing a lot now or it can be awarded posthumously." Last year three people were named to the wall. "We want at least two people to be awarded this year." The awards banquet was a special highlight for many attendees last year because the meal was prepared using products that were grown or produced within the county. "We want to continue with that theme because it was popular and people like to see what is offered within our county area. It honours the local farmers who produce the food." Each year, the agricultural communications committee awards a sc holarship to a h igh school student who expresses his or her views on issues affecting their lives and futures in Camrose County. Applications for the Wall of Honour and Century Farm Awards are available at the Camrose County Seed Cleaning Plant office at 4728-41 Street in Camrose. The deadline is O ctober 3. For more information contact the agricultural services office at 780672-4765. Tickets to the event will be on sale in mid October.

Camrose County will be reviewing Ed Bieber's drainage request closely this fall.

A review revealed that there are two centre line pipes that feed water on the south side of the road across to the Bieber property; however, the small pipe in the intersection is plugged on either end.

"What Mr. Bieber is c omplaining about, is that Mr. Carr was given verbal permission to cut that ditch deeper," explained councillor Vern Peterson. "Originally, there was no ditch. At l east, there isn't much of one on the other side. The water had to run a different way. He (Mr. Carr) upsized the culvert. We changed the direction of water flow. He wants us to divert the water to the south and then in to the lake."

Buffaloes remain positive The Camrose bantam Buffaloes lost to the Edmonton Seahawks and Edmonton Chargers, but are working hard to improve. T he local team is c urrently playing against higher tiered opponents to determine a playoff division for the club. Camrose plays at home on October 1 a nd 8 a t Kin Park. The atom team plays at 11 a.m., the bantams start at 12:30 p.m. and the peewee squad starts at 3 p.m. The Spruce Grove Cougars and the St. Albert Buccaneers will be the opposing teams.

The CREDCO building in the City of Camrose industrial park is about undergo a f ew repairs. City council accepted a quote of $109,775 at its September 12 meeting for the replacement of the building's roof, plus $3.75 per square foot for the replacement of wet insulation. The work will be performed by Cooper Roofing Ltd., a R ed Deer company. City manager Damian Herle told council that the CREDCO building is leaking and causing damage to items that are stored inside. He added that the project has been previously approved in the budget, and that administration considers it a high priority to complete. The total amount budgeted for building repairs was $121,000. The Cooper Roofing Ltd. bid for repairs was $4,915 higher than a bid submitted by a l ocal firm, but the cost of insulation replacement was $4.70 per square foot less. "If ten per cent of the insulation is re placed, the quotes are very similar, with the local firm being $1,078 higher," said Herle. "As the amount of wet insulation needing replacement is unknown at this time, there is a risk of escalating costs if there is more than ten per cent. If the wet insulation replacement is 20 per cent then the cost difference exceeds $7,000, as well as the approved budget. If the wet insulation replacement is 50 per cent the total cost for the local contractor

would be $25,000 higher than the Red Deer contractor." Administration believes that a minimum of ten per cent replacement will be required. The City of Camrose purchasing policy allows for hiring local contractors if their quote/price is less than 10 per cent higher than other quotes for purchases up to $5,000, or less than five per cent higher if the project cost estimates are between $5,000 and $50,000. Councillor Ray McIsaac said while he would like to stay local, it would be a d isadvantage to the City of Camrose to have to pay ten per cent more for the project. "A difference of $4.70 per square foot is significant," he said. Councillor Howard agreed the recommendation by administration to accept the quote from the Red Deer business protects the City better than if it accepted the quote from the one from Camrose. "We have no idea what we will find when we get in there and nothing is more surprising than renovations," he said. Councillor Gerry Galenza questioned whether the building has turned into an expensive storage facility for the City. "It is n ot being used for what it was intended to be used for," he said. Galenza said he has had several inquiries as to what the City is go ing to do with the building from people who are interested in taking on the lease. Mayor Chalmers said he was very hesitant to go with the local quote based on the information that was presented.

Camrose County monitors Bieber water drainage request Continued from page 35

Brant Poyser and Al Kruger ran a quick survey from the slough bottom in the right of way to east of the intersection in an attempt to ditch water to a centre line pipe that drains into municipal reserve the county owns. "In order for the water to move, a ditch of just over 2.8 metres would have to be cut deeper to put a g rade line on the ditch for

the water to move. For this scenario to evolve, brushing would have to occur, plus extra right of way purchased to accommodate a six to one backslope. Also, there are utilities to contend with. ATCO gas line west of the intersection and 2-50 pair Telus lines run the ditch bottom east. Prior to any work being contemplated, all utilities would have to be hydro-vaced for depth and location," said Kruger.

A conservative estimate on this service, plus waste disposal, would be $3,000. Ditching and trucking of excavation would be $5,000 approximately, plus $1,000 for cleanup and reseeding. "Prior to this taking place, coordination with the utility companies to deepen their facilities would need to be scheduled. At best, this would mean next year's construction season."

A second option would be for Mr. Bieber to fill in the low area in his lawn and create a swale to the north east. This would direct the flow to an undeveloped road allowance allowing the water to run to the water body north of his property. A third option is t o remove the culvert in the intersection running east to west and replace it with one running north and

south. Create a small 'V' ditch in the road allowance to the north to contain water and have it dissipate into the lake. "On a quick walk through on the road allowance north, the deepest cut for the ditch would be approximately three metres to contain the water on the right of way and length of ditching equivalent to option number one," said Al.

PHOTO CLASSIFIED ADS

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

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

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

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

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

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

County closes road, redistricting denied By Murray Green

Council forwarded Bylaw 1214 for the closure of the undeveloped road allowance adjacent to the E1/2 of 8-49-20-W4 to Alberta Transportation for approval. No objections were received at a public hearing on Sept. 13. "For some reason the road ends on private land and only the adjacent landowners use the road," said Anjah Howard, development officer. "The road turns into a t rail as you go north. The road is not

up to county standards." Second and third readings have to wait until further notice from Alberta Transportation. A redistricting of land use for Pt E1/2 SW 14-48-21-W4 was denied because another access to Highway 21 will not likely be agreed upon by Alberta Transportation. "We just have too many acreages already in the close proximity," said councillor Doug Lyseng. The property runs north of Highway 616 and west of Highway 21.

Ohaton tie-ins lead to extra tax By Murray Green

The County rescinded resolution #175/11 and in its place directed administration to establish a modified County and landowner finance agreement to achieve the same results as a local improvement tax for funding the obligations of the Ohaton Regional Water Transmission Line Tie-in project, including the required City of Camrose connection fee. "We are looking at up to 29 tie-ins and we are not going to go over that number as I see it," said County administrator Steve. Animal protection

The County added a l ittle beef to its animal protection act. Council agreed to add the Animal Protection Act and Public Highways Development Act on the capture of animals to be added to the County's authority and the Peace Officer's appointments. "We need to give our staff more authority to be able to handle certain situations when dealing with stray animals," said councillor Trevor Miller. "Our Protective Services staff need to act quickly sometimes, rather than waiting around for the SPCA." Air balloons

Camrose County decided to sponsor $1,000 towards the 2011 Canadian Hot Air Balloon Championships. The championships run September 21 to 25. They start at Rudy Swanson Park and travel over parts of the county. Council accepted the Armena playground proposal from Sunshine Playground Equipment Ltd. for $56,939.45 (GST exempt) with funds to come from the 2011 capital budget. A tax sale date was set for Friday, December 9th, at 2 p.m. at the County administration office. The County will relocate the approach installed at NE29-4820-4 at the request of the landowner, at a cost of $2,713, with funding to come from the public works labour and culvert budgets. Council awarded the West Pelican Point Portable Pier competition to Stacy Dubitz, with a winning bid of $1,255.53. The sale is "final and as is" and further, that the pier is to be removed from the public beach as soon as is practically reasonable.

Harvest festival turns into two-day affair

By Dan Jensen The fourth annual Harvest Festival at the Meeting Creek Railway Station and Elevator will be an extended affair. "We're going to be promoting reg ional and local artists over a t wo-day period, Sept. 30 and Oct. 1," said Camrose Railway Station Museum and Park spokesperson Janine Carroll." The festival is o ne of many that is being celebrated around the province as part of Alberta Art Days. "Because it falls within Alberta Arts Days we were able to obtain a g rant from Alberta Culture and Community Spirit," said Carroll. Day one of the Harvest Festival will be an aboriginal cultural extravaganza with storytelling led by aboriginal elders and Glenys Smith, as well as performances by the Ben Calf Robe Society fiddlers, dancers and drummers. "We're hoping to attract school classes from around the district as well as the general public," said Carroll. The Ben Calf Robe Society came to the attention of the Camrose Railway Station through the daughter of volunteer curator. "Glenys's daughter teaches at Ben Calf Robe so she (Glenys) thought she would ask if they were available and they were," said Carroll. Day two of the festival will feature Meeting Creek Railway Station tours, elevator tours, speeder rides, children's games and crafts, pumpkin painting, scarecrow making, a s team equipment display and a fa ll themed white elephant sale, and a chance to have photos taken on a covered wagon, which will be present from 1 to 5. "We're going to be providing old clothing so they can dress up (or down) while they are getting their photos taken," explained Carroll. Scheduled entertainers for the day will include Brian Wilson, Lew Hutchinson, cowboy poet Jeff Strandquist, Dale's Band and Les Hall. In addition, Glenys Smith will be telling some of her favourite pumpkin stories. The Harvest Festival at the Meeting Creek Railway Station and Elevator has always enjoyed good attendance. "We get a lot of people who come from quite a w ide area," said Carroll. "The little boys always seem to be attracted to the speeder cars that run throughout the day and the weather always seems to be perfect." A representative from the Alberta government is scheduled to make an appearance at the festival in the afternoon.

Raymond Edgar Smith Raymond (Ray) Smith was born on October 25, 1938, in Edmonton, Alberta, to Otto and Ida Smith. The Smith family farm was located near Nisku, Alberta, and Ray grew up plowing, sowing and harvesting, and developed a deep love of the cycle of farming and the land. It was here he a lso learned to love and trust the Lord – a n inheritance passed down from his parents which he faithfully passed on to his own children. In 1956, he began his career in finance, working at t he Royal Bank in Edmonton. In 1960, he was transferred to the Camrose branch where he met B onnie Hoefling – the woman who set her ca p for him and, five years later, would become his wife. Ray graduated from the University of Alberta in 1970 with a Bachelor of Commerce. He articled for two years with Clarkson, Gordon Company and received his Chartered Accountant designation in 1972. He remained in finance for the rest of his career working for the Alberta Research Council, Augustana University College, The Bethany Group and Concordia University College. He retired in 2006 and, after a b rief hiatus, accepted a p art-time position at Concordia Lutheran Seminary as Finance Manager. He was pleased to serve his Lord and the church both in his positions at post-secondary institutions and also through service on many boards and committees in his congregation. In his retirement, he also recaptured his love of photography as well as spending time traveling with Bonnie both to distant places and to visit their two children Angela (Matthew) and Les (Gaylene); and his grandsons Hudson and Greyden. Ray passed away peacefully on September 9, 2011, at the age of 72 in the company of his family. Funeral services were held on Wednesday, September 14, 2011, at 1:30 p .m. from St. Peter’s Lutheran Church (5012-51 Avenue, Leduc) with Rev. Neil Stern officiating.

Laura Merle Levagood It is with much sadness that we announce the sudden but peaceful passing of L aura Merle Levagood, age 86, on September 3, 2 011, at D elta Hospital, after a s even-month struggle with cancer. Born July 8, 1925, in Manitou, Manitoba, she w as the youngest daughter of W illiam and Laura Manning of Darlingford, Manitoba. Merle had two sisters, Alva and Ella; and three brothers Clayton, Wray and Delbert. All of her family had predeceased her. Merle had a happy, small town childhood in Darlingford. She always had lots of friends, sang in the church choir, and enjoyed skating at the local community centre. After graduation from high school, Merle moved to Calgary where she wo rked for Macdonalds Consolidated. There she met and worked with Marion Levagood, soon to be her sister-in-law. Merle met Glenn Levagood in Calgary in 1946. They were married in Calgary on February 8, 1947. Soon after, they moved to Camrose, Alberta, where Glenn began his 50-year career with Sun Life. Moving with this new family was Mrs. Laura Manning, Sr., who lived with the family for 11 years, until she passed away in 1958. Pamela Jean Levagood was born in Camrose, Alberta, on February 16, 1951. Cynthia Louise Levagood was born in Edmonton, Alberta on July 23, 1959. Merle had a zest for life! She loved to cook and entertain. Everyone was always welcome at the Levagood home. She played an active role in the community, volunteering at Ronald McDonald House and the Misericordia Hospital for decades. Merle loved curling at H illcrest Country Club, quilting with her quilting group, playing cards, knitting afghans and, boy, did she know her sports trivia. She and Glenn were avid Edmonton Eskimos and Edmonton Oilers fans, having season’s tickets for decades. After Glenn’s passing on September 2, 2001, in Edmonton, Merle moved to Tsawwassen, BC in 2007 to be closer to her girls. There she lived at Waterford Seniors’ Residence where she made many, dear friends, enjoyed playing bridge, attending happy hour, (especially when Elvis was entertaining!) and had many daily laughs. Merle is survived by Pam and Moray Keith of Tsawwassen, BC, and Cindy Levagood and David Dupont of Fairmont Hot Springs, BC. Much joy in Merle’s life was attributed to her grandchildren Greg Keith and Courtney Keith of Vancouver, BC. Years of da nce recitals, hockey games, Nan’s baking and Nana’s love was special to them, and shall be greatly missed. Fairmont Hot Springs, Mountainside Villas, played a big part in Merle and Glenn’s life. The family has enjoyed 30 summers there, with lots of friends, and many good times. A celebration of her l ife will be held at B each Grove Golf Course, 5946-12th Avenue, Tsawwassen, BC, on Wednesday, September 21, 2011, from 1:00 to 3:00 p.m. To make this joyous celebration even more fun, the family requests you bring photos of Merle for them to keep. Please explain on the back who is in the photo and the occasion. Write down a funny or memorable story and bring it with you. The girls are preparing a book in memory of her life, and these photos and stories will all be included. Merle’s favourite colour was pink. You are asked to wear something pink on September 21 to celebrate her zest for a life well lived! In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to ICAN, Invermere Companion Animal Network, Delta Hospital Foundation, or the charity of your choice.

Atom Buffaloes defeat Wetaskiwin By Murray Green

OFFICE MANAGER Camrose County Please submit a resumé to info@naslundconsultinggroup.ca

The Camrose Buffaloes atom squad stampeded into Wetaskiwin on Sept. 10 to crush the Wolverines 28-6 to record their first victory of the year. The team was led by a strong physical defensive effort. "Stand out players on defence were Kris Lee with a p unishing hit that left many players on the sideline cringing, Aleksander Kozak with his first tackle, and Jace McCarthy with several key tackles," said coach Fitz Sherman. "On offence, diminutive fullback Kieran Sherman made some beautiful second down conversion runs to keep drives alive and just about scored his

first touchdown. First year and first game linemen Kevin Kittler and Noah Segal showed how well they have learned the game by keeping opposing linemen at bay all game long." On special teams, Camron Dunbar made a beautiful 40 yard run on a kickoff return. "We had strong punting and added two conversions by Teryll Sherman." The Buffaloes' next game will be against the St. A lbert Vikings on Sept. 18 in St. Albert. Bantams

The bantam team didn't have it as easy in Edmonton. "The day was supposed to be partly cloudy and about 14; how-

ever, it turned into a major wind storm and rain for most of the game. The weather was a factor in a couple of turn overs. However, our boys played hard," said coach Carl Davidse. Camrose dropped a 55 -0 score to the Edmonton Chargers, who are a perennial Tier 1 team. The Buffaloes usually compete at the Tier 3 or 4 level. "Offensively we need to work on being more consistent moving the ball. We played pretty mistake-free and our passing game is improving and some of our formations show very good promise," said Carl. "Our coverage on punts and kickoffs was very good. Our boys never quit."
