The Performing Arts Centre in Camrose will be a monument to the importance of culture in community stability and growth, specifically in rural Alberta. With this vision comes the need for support from those who are committed to the arts, to the area’s growth and development, and to the benefits that an artistic experience brings to both performers and audience members. The Performing Arts Centre partnership is seeking $5 million to make this vision a reality. Your gift to this project will help ensure that arts and culture remain central to our community for many years to come. Our volunteers will be out and about over the next 18 months seeking your support but in the meantime, we invite you to contact us through www.camroseperformingarts.ca or call 780.679.1558 to find out how you can be part of growing arts and culture in our community.

Parents pull their children out of Strome School By Dan Jensen

The classrooms at Strome School have gone silent. Battle River School Division closed the school's doors last week after asking the six students who still remained there following a recent mass exodus to enroll at the school in Daysland. "I had concerns about the quality of educational programming we could provide for six students in five different grades, ranging from early elementary to junior high school," said Superintendent of Schools Dr. Larry Payne. "I directed them to the nearest educational program of appropriate standards, which is Daysland School."

Strome parents started moving their children to Daysland and Killam Schools September 28 after the lower than anticipated enrolment total of 51 forced BRSD to start discussions on the need to reduce school staffing levels and provide at least a portion of the core subject instruction in quad-graded groupings. "Having quad classes was not something with which the parents were comfortable," said Dr. Payne, who met with the parents Sept. 27. BRSD made the decision in the spring of this year to continue triple-grading core subjects at the Grades 1 to 9 school and

to quad-grade several non-core subjects. Funding goes with students

The funding that Strome School was supposed to receive for the students has now been transferred to Daysland and to Killam. The Daysland School now has a total student enrolment of 285 students in a building that has capacity for 573. "It is important to acknowledge the receptiveness of both the staff and the parent council at Daysland to the new students and their parents," said Dr. Payne. "They have had to be very welcoming and flexible because, obviously, it changes their routines. Many of them put in extra

hours to make the transition as easy as possible." Tough decision

BRSD board chair Doug Bowie commended the Strome parents for doing what was in the best interests of their children. "It (the decision to send their children to another school) was tough on them and tough on their kids. I admire their courage because they are living in a small community where everyone wants to preserve their quality of life." Dr. Payne said the decision to transfer the remaining six students removes some of the uncertainty as to what will happen with staffing throughout the

division. He noted that the principal at Strome School has been transferred to Chester Ronning School in Camrose, while the three teachers at Strome School have been transferred to Daysland School. The administrative assistant at Strome has been temporarily transferred to the Battle River School Division head office in Camrose. Staffing assignments for two educational assistants have not yet been confirmed. Process to follow

While BRSD has turned the key to Strome School, it will still be a few months before the closure becomes official. Continued on page 7

City council sets wheels in motion for proposed plant By Dan Jensen

City council has set the legislative wheels in motion for the proposed Cargill canola crushing plant. Council gave first reading Oct. 9 to a bylaw that would redistrict land from the current zoning of agriculture to M2 medium industrial. "It is proposed that a rail line be constructed from the existing CP Railway line along Highway 13, south through the Glen lands located within City boundaries," stated a report from acting director of planning and development services Shelley Munro. "They (Cargill) currently are in the process of finalizing the purchase of these lands." Council is expected to give first reading to an area structure plan bylaw Oct. 22. City public hearings for the redistricting and area structure plans are scheduled to be held Dec. 10, followed by possible second and third readings. City manager Damian Herle told council the city processes fall quite closely on the heels of the processes of Camrose County, which gave first reading to its own area structure plan and redistricting bylaws Oct. 9. "The logic is that any County council approvals should come before City examination, because the reality is that one is really contingent on the other." Cargill will be holding an open house at the Edgeworth Centre Nov. 28. The proposed plant is expected to initially process 850,000 tonnes of canola per year, a number that would be eventually increased to 1.2 million tonnes per year. Cargill is asking that the City supply the plant with its raw water, as well as potable water for human use only from the Ohaton Regional Line.

The amount of potable water required that would be used is the equivalent to the amount used by 36 Camrose residents. Raw water requirements would be equivalent to the requirements of an additional 2,860 Camrose residents. The City requires approvals from Alberta Environment and Sustainable Resource Development for increased raw water withdrawal from Dried Meat Lake. Initial indications are that no red flags have been identified and that additional capacity approval should be forthcoming. "Cargill is well aware that approval from the Ministry is required," said Mayor Marshall Chalmers. Herle said City administration is very excited to work on the process. "I know that the City had had to be in a position to really decline developments in the past. I am thinking specifically of a malting plant, where we couldn't meet water requirements a number of years ago. I think these developments only come along once in so many years, and administration is certainly working hard so the development can indeed become a reality for the City of Camrose." Cargill plans to pre-treat the wastewater on site and before discharging the rest to the City wastewater facility. Current calculations are that fifty per cent of the discharge would go to the wastewater system. Cargill will be expected to make contributions to any upgrades that are needed to City of Camrose infrastructure. Councillor Gerry Galenza noted he is pleased with how Cargill is keeping residents of the City informed about what it is proposing to do. Continued on page 11

Hugs for everyone

Captain Camrose was busy handing out hugs at the Camrose Fire Department pancake breakfast at the Camrose Fire Hall Oct. 14. A total of 1,175 Camrose and area residents were fed at the breakfast, which was the final wrap-up for Fire Prevention Week, Oct. 7 to 13. Fifty per cent of the profits were donated to breast cancer research and fifty per cent were donated to Muscular Dystrophy. Members of the Camrose Fire Department cooked hundreds of pounds of sausage, eggs and pancakes, while members of the Junior Firefighters assisted with table clearing and general cleanup.

County council gives first reading to structure plan By Murray Green

Camrose County council passed several bylaw first readings for a proposed Cargill canola crushing plant east of the city. Council gave first reading to the area structure plan. The intention of the developer is to create a plant that will have the capacity to process up to 3,500 tonnes per day of canola seed. The initial annual crush volume is expected to be approximately 850,000 tonnes. The finished products will include approximately 1,500 tonnes per day of food grade canola oil and 2,000 tonnes per day of canola meal animal feed. "Due to the proximity of the city and the necessity for the developer to construct rail lines within the city boundaries, the city has requested that the area structure plan also address lands that are impacted by the purchase of railway lands," said planning manager Anjah Howard, in her report. "Therefore the ASP discusses potential developments within Section 25, Township 46,

Range 20, West of the Fourth Meridian in addition to the plant development on E1/2 24-46-20W4." Within the County (S1/2 25-46-20-W4) the intent is to leave these lands as agricultural so no rezoning is required. Railways are considered discretionary in agricultural districts. The N1/2 of 25-46-20-W4 is within the city, so it does not have a significant impact on county planning since both the long range plans of the city and the ASP show the lands as commercialindustrial, indicated Anjah. The canola crushing plant, which is the major development within the plan is expected to run year round. It is anticipated that there will be 50 employees on site. About 95 per cent of the canola crushed at the site will be trucked in and it is anticipated that there will be 135 to 165 super-B trucks per day hauling canola to the site. In addition, there will be up to five covered van or truck deliveries weekly and 35 staff or visitor vehicles per day. Vehicle traffic

will access the site on Dried Meat Lake Road (Range Road 200) after turning off of Highway 13. A traffic impact assessment and necessary road upgrades will be in place before the site becomes operational. The project location was determined by its proximity to CP and CN rail, but additional rail lines will be required to connect the plant to the two rail lines. Rail lines will be constructed either on easements or on lands purchased by the applicant. The project will also require at least two road crossings and possibly a third if the request to close a portion of Twp Rd 464 is denied. The applicant has worked with both rail companies to determine the required alignments. Council gave first reading to close a county road to allow for safe crossings and to save time for unhooking to avoid road blockage. The county was told that most of the canola product will be shipped out by rail and it is expected that up to 340 rail cars

will be able to be stored on site. On average, there will be six to eight train movements per week on each CN and CP spur line. It is proposed that at each of the eight road crossings, six would take approximately three minutes and two would take five to eight minutes. The plant will be serviced by the City of Camrose raw water supply and wastewater treatment systems. A small amount of potable water will be provided by Camrose County for office use. The E1/2 of 24-46-20-W4 contains approximately 320 acres of land. The plant will cover approximately 30 acres, the stormwater management pond(s) another 2.5 acres, the access road 2.5 acres and 17 acres of rail yard and spur lines for a development area of 52 acres or a site coverage of 16 per cent. The remainder of the land will continue to be used for agricultural purposes and could be planted with canola in rotation with other crops. Council gave first reading to Bylaw 1257 to close the most

easterly 715 metres of government road allowance (Twp Rd 464) adjacent to the north side of NE 24-46-20-W4 and have it consolidated into the adjacent lands. "The applicant is requesting that this road allowance be closed and consolidated into the adjacent lands as part of the Cargill development on the E1/2 of 24-46-20-W4. The Area Structure Plan and Development concept require rail access adjacent to Highway 13, so a rail line will be constructed from the E1/2 of 24 to Highway 13, crossing Township Road 464," explained Anjah in her report. Councillor Doug Lyseng expressed concerns that residents will have to go a long way around the plant if the road is closed. Closing this road will eliminate the need for a rail crossing at this location, increasing the safety of the area. Public works initial review indicated that this roadway has a relatively low traffic volume and alternate routes are available in close proximity to the roadway.

Strome School decision Continued from page 3

"There is a legislated school closure process that we have to follow," said Bowie. "We went through that process a couple of years ago but it hasn't happened in this case, so we still need to do some research about the appropriate way to proceed." The former Strome School students are currently being bused to Strome, where they board two express buses for Daysland. "We made a decision to provide busing for all the Strome students to Daysland without disrupting any other bus routes at this stage," said Bowie. "We may have to re-do all the bus routes in the future in order that everyone can be accommodated." BRSD announced in the fall of 2011 the creation of a pilot project that would see students in Strome School use laptops to enhance their learning opportunities.

At the same time, BRSD's superintendent of schools committed to not bringing forward a recommendation to close the school, ensuring that the building would remain operational for the 2012-13 school year. Strome School parents rallied to keep their school open in early 2011 after the superintendent of schools made a recommendation to the board of trustees to close their school based on projected enrolments. BRSD trustees agreed to respect the parents' wishes after being assured that the parents were comfortable with their children being served in triple-graded classrooms. "They sent the message to the parents that the school would be expected to operate solely on its budget allocation, without additional financial support," said BRSD communications coordinator Diane Hutchinson.

FCC drives away hunger with tractor tour Oct. 16 By Murray Green

Farm Credit Canada (FCC) is asking people to donate food items during the company's Drive Away Hunger tractor tour on October 16. It’s a unique food drive that involves driving a tractor and trailer through communities to collect food and cash donations for food banks across the country. FCC employees from coast to coast, along with several community partners, will join forces to fight hunger. This year’s goal is to collect one million pounds of food and $500,000 for food banks across the nation.

Response to Second Thought In her column, Ms. Wilton says the Motion 312 is seen by many as a way to re-open the debate on abortion, but many other Canadians see the Motion 312 as a proposal to examine and study the advancement in medical evidence in assessing the humanity of the unborn child. Section 223 of the Criminal Code says a child becomes a "human being" only once he or she has fully proceeded from the mother's womb. This section of the Criminal Code is based on a 400-year-old definition and a medieval understanding of fetal development, irrespective of

today's advancement in medical and scientific evidence involving "life" in the womb. The private member's Motion 312 by MP Stephen Woodworth did not propose any change in Canadian law, but the creation of a parliamentary committee to produce a report outlining the options to affirm, amend or replace subsection 223 (1) of the Criminal Code. Thus, Motion 312 was brought forward for study because many Canadians believe that all life has value and that decisions of life and death that affect all of us deserve measured analysis by community, learned experts and our elected representatives. It was sad to hear the outbursts uttered in reference to Rona Ambrose. Ms. Ambrose is a woman of integrity, dignity and knowledgeable regarding today's advancement in the medical sciences. Although Ms. Ambrose is Secretary of State for the status of women, she is also a Member of Parliament and showed the concerns of her constituents. One has to admire her courage by not being "corralled" by the Prime Minister. By the way, what does Ms. Wilton mean by saying Mr. Harper is working hard to keep

Earning customer loyalty This week, October 14-20, is Small Business Week and, all across Canada, small businesses are being honoured for their service to community and favourable impact on the Canadian economy. On the national scene, Small Business Week celebrations are organized by the Canadian Chamber of Commerce in cooperation with the Business Development Bank of Canada, and, in Alberta, by the Alberta Chambers of Commerce and The Business Link development centre. In Camrose, the local chamber is again holding a Small Business Week Annual Awards banquet to recognize the special effort of local small businesses to deliver quality products and services. Small businesses are classified as follows, based on number of employees: 1 to 4 employees is a micro enterprise; 5 to 100 employees is a small business; 101 to 499 is a medium-sized business; over 500 is a large business. In Canada, of the total number of registered employer businesses, over 1.116 million are small businesses and comprise 98 percent of all businesses in Canada. Small businesses also employ 48.3% of Canada’s total work force. (Industry Canada based on StatsCan 2010). We are fortunate in Camrose to have a diversified business community that provides a big-city-like selection of retail stores, service enterprises and manufacturers. Almost weekly, local news carries pictures and stories about honours that some of our local businesses, in various categories, have been awarded – even at the international level. How impressive is that! Inserted with this issue of The Booster is a brochure carrying messages from a number of local employers. Reading them reveals management and staff that are dedicated to ever trying to improve quality of product and service. They do it by continually upgrading where possible, with both equipment and training. The world is changing and they are doing their best to meet the challenges as they are encountered. Providing better customer service is the ever-present goal. In addition to that, charities often turn first to the business community for support for their projects and, in large measure, are not disappointed. One of the reasons we like to live in Camrose is that we have such a wide variety of goods and services available here; we do not have to travel afar to get them. To keep it that way, local enterprises need our patronage. We salute them for truly trying to earn our loyalty.

political issues far, far from Parliament? Is it not Parliament's role to discuss political issues? The first and most fundamental right is the right to life, since it is this right that makes all others possible and gives them their rationale. Canada is a country that prides itself on a high standard of human rights, yet we find ourselves in the company of China and North Korea, with no restrictions on abortion from conception to birth. We are the only country in the western world without abortion legislation. Apart from religious or moral issues, modern up to date medical advancements give evidence of "life" in the womb. As people do we desire to fashion a culture of life and love in which each person, at every moment and in all circumstances of their lifespan is of value and gift to each other? Mary Caulfield, member of Camrose Pro Life Question for Verlyn Olson

I have been informed by some members of our community that I lack the profile of being an expert in political issues. I am here to let everybody know that they are right. I am just a Cana-

dian with an opinion. Everybody in this huge country can have an opinion. In my opinion, we better all use our rights before they are all taken away from us. That could happen to us some day. In my opinion, it is very clear that the majority of those who live in the wonderful Wetaskiwin/Camrose area are pretty happy with Mr. Verlyn Olson. He has grown up in this community and has earned their respect. I really do tip my hat to this man for what he has done in the past for this area. I am sure that the Olson team and our MLA will do their best to represent people in this day and age. I only have one question for you, Mr. Olson to ask your boss, our dear Premier. During the last election, she had not only promised to release her expenses of what she has spent for the past years that she has been in the government, she would post them on line for all to see. Why has she not done so herself? I have read online that our dear opposition has helped her complete her promise by doing this themselves. We owe our thanks to this wonderful party for doing this great deed.

I have looked at all the expenses which she had occurred from 2008 until this day. I have decided to focus on the totals of all what our dear Premier has charged to her dear subjects. From what I have noticed, she has charged since 2008 for very plush hotels, expensive bottles of champagne and a list of lavish tabs to the tune of almost $247,000. I might not have the full story. Maybe she needed that executive class from Edmonton to Calgary on March 11/2008? Maybe we should ask Mr. Olson to explain why his boss needs to spend so much money on things that I only dream of. She had a $647.86 bill for an unused hotel room in Giraffe, New York City on November 14, 2011. If I did that, my wife would have my head. These could be situations which our Premier could not avoid? Premier Redford has promised to be open and transparent. I must say thanks to her opposition, that she is doing just that. This is just something for Mr.. Olson's team and you to think about. Lorne W.P. Vanderwoude Camrose

Democracy in Venezuela Many Canadians interested in international politics are focused on the US Presidential election which will be held next month. Last week, however, another presidential election took place: Hugo Chavez was re-elected as President of Venezuela on 8 October. This was an important event, both for Venezuela and for the world. To appreciate the importance of this event, we must realize that democracy in Venezuela is both very vibrant and very fragile. One indication of the fragility of Venezuelan democracy is the fact that Chavez, who was initially elected to the presidency in 1998, had in fact led an unsuccessful military coup in 1992. In 2002, Chavez was himself briefly overthrown in a military coup – a coup that was supported by Henrique Capriles, Chavez’s opponent in the recent vote. Both candidates in the election are tainted by associations with military coups. Yet both candidates are credible democrats. The coup Chavez led was directed against a government which had betrayed its election promise not to impose an austerity program upon Venezuela, and had then killed upwards of three thousand people who had protested this betrayal. It was a “democratic” coup. Capriles, for his part, campaigned fairly in the recent contest, respected the result of the vote and exhibited exemplary grace in his defeat. For the fact is that although Venezuelan democracy may still be fragile, it is very vibrant. Thousands of ordinary Venezuelans in both major political parties threw themselves into the election – sometimes in imaginative ways. They designed and distributed posters, wrote songs, shouted slogans and – in a tactic I hope does not catch on in Canada – scribbled election pro-

paganda on the rear windows of cars waiting for traffic lights to turn. Both candidates staged open-air rallies attended by hundreds of thousands of people. Finally, an amazing 81% of eligible voters exercised their franchise. Although Chavez received only 55% of the votes cast, he was supported by 44% of all eligible voters – a number that compares favorably with the 30% of eligible voters who supported Obama in 2008 and the 25% of Canadian voters who voted Conservative in 2010. Joyful as Venezuelans were in their participation in the election, the contest itself was not a shallow spectacle. Profound differences separate President Chavez from his challenger, Capriles. Hugo Chavez is a mestizo outsider raised in a mud hut; his support base lies in the impoverished masses who have usually felt excluded from the social order. Since winning the presidency in 1998, Chavez has strengthened the state oil company and directed its vast revenues towards programs

which have provided housing, education, health services and subsidized food to the economically disadvantaged majority. He has also done much to deepen Venezuela’s ties with other Latin American nations while diminishing his nation’s traditional subordination to the US. Henrique Capriles, on the other hand, championed the cause of the Venezuela elite who still dominate industry, banking and the media but fear the threat to their privileges posed by what Chavez has called his “Bolivarian Revolution.” An adroit politician, Capriles pledged to preserve the social programs Chavez established. He was committed, however, to deepening his nation’s ties with the US, withdrawing from agreements with other Latin American nations, and privatizing many of the enterprises that have been nationalized during the Chavez years. So, Venezuelans faced a choice between, on the one hand, the “Washington Consensus” of unimpeded access for US economic, military and political interests and, on the other, Chavez’s “Twenty-First Century Socialism” which stresses social equality, national independence and regional cooperation with Latin American neighbors. The endorsement, by the electorate, of “Twenty-first Century Socialism” is obviously important for Venezuela’s previously excluded majority, but it has international implications as well. Argentina’s president, Cristina Kritchner, described Chavez’s victory as “a victory for Latin America.” To those who believe the world needs strong and democratic alternatives to US domination, this event seems too like a victory for humanity.

Reasons to use a telephoto lens

Ronda Shott Professional Photographer

4812-50 AVENUE, CAMROSE PHONE 780-672-1005

Using a digital picture frame A digital photo frame, available for about a hundred dollars, allows you to change your decor on a daily basis while at the same time showing off your exploits, your holidays and your happy memories. How? Very simply, because the device has a small screen which allows you to display the photos you have taken with your digital camera. With the help of your computer or your digital camera, you’ll be able to transfer the photographs onto the memory card of the digital frame. From there, you’ll be able to choose the photograph to liven up your decor effortlessly thanks to a digital photograph frame, photographs you want to show and then hang the frame on the wall. Moreover, you’ll have the possibility of displaying just one photo at a time or choosing a slideshow of your recent trip to Mexico, for example. Finally, as a way of really impressing your family and friends, you could even add some background music, which would give another dimension to this procession of photographs. And to ensure maximum impact, don’t forget to include a photograph of your guests when they come for dinner; it’s a winning recipe.

Here are a few top reasons to use a telephoto lens. Gear When working with longer lenses, the slightest of movements can mean you end up with images that aren't absolutely sharp so make sure you use a tripod and have a tripod head that can support the lens /camera you're using. If you need to move around quite a bit you may prefer to use a monopod but either way, you need some sort of support. A tripod or monopod will also stop your arms aching from carrying the weight of a long, heavy lens around with you all day. To minimize shake further, use a cable release to start your exposures. If you don't have a cable release, use your camera's self-timer so when you do press the shutter button, it's not in the same instance you take the shot, preventing shake creeping into the image as a result. Bring far subjects close The telephoto effect these lenses have make objects, that may actually have quite a lot of distance between them, appear as if they're close together. The longer your focal length, the more obvious the effect will be and is useful when you have a city skyline or mountains in the background which will give you a more interesting and pleasing shot if they're pulled a little closer to the object closer to your lens e.g. the bridge, building or boulder that's your main point of focus. Fill the frame When you want to exclude some part of what's in your frame e.g. a boring grey sky that's in the background of your landscape shot, use a telephoto lens to focus in on the colourful tree line rather than having the trees and sky in shot. It'll also pull a distant subject closer to you, which means you can get frame-filling shots of shy wildlife or

of a particular aspect of the landscape that's too far for you to get to. Pick distant subjects out If you want to draw attention to a particular aspect that would be lost if shot with a wider focal length, use a telephoto lens to isolate your subject. You can do this with shorter focal lengths but the longer reach of a telephoto means you can isolate a subject that's some distance away from where you're shooting. Wildlife As a telephoto lens closes the distance between you and whatever you're photographing, it's an ideal lens for photographing wildlife. With a telephoto lens you'll be able to take shots that look like you were just a few steps away from your subject when really you were some distance away. This distance means your subject won't be scared off and if you're shooting what could be considered as a dangerous animal, the distance makes it safer for you. Portraits Shooting head or head and shoulder shots with a longer focal length can give a better perspective and allows for a tighter crop when working farther away from your subject. This distance also means you don't have to work too close to your subject and as a result they'll be more comfortable and you'll have more natural looking portraits. You'll also be able to capture shots without any distortion and backgrounds are more easily thrown out of focus, even when they are just a couple of meters behind your subject, meaning all focus falls directly on your subject. Just keep an eye on your shutter speed if working hand-held, though, as you don't want shake spoiling your shot. Shallow depth of field As mentioned above, tele-

photo lenses make it easier to get the blurry backgrounds in photos that isolate your subject and really make them the focus of your shot. You don't want distracting background detail competing for the viewer's attention and a shallow depth of field will make sure this doesn't happen. Photograph the moon Your shots won't be as good as those who use telescopes but you can still get excellent shots of the moon with a long telephoto lens. As well as a very long lens you also need a tripod, clear skies, good weather, remote/cable release, a few hours to spare and good technique. You can find more tips on shooting the moon here: Moon Photography Use to capture action – sport, racing, flying For fast paced action that you can't get close to, e.g. motor sport and flying events, you'll need the longer focal lengths telephotos give you as, most of the time, it'll be impossible to get close to the action. To create a sense of pace, use your telephoto lens to shoot a few shots where your subject is sharp but the background is nicely thrown out of focus. How good you are at panning, what shutter speed you use, how fast your subject's moving and how much light's around will make this task harder/ easier every time you head to the track but do it a few times and you'll soon perfect your technique. Bridges If you want to show a bridge in the context of its surroundings, fit a telephoto lens to your camera. They're also good at compressing perspective and are good for zooming in on and isolating structure detail. Longer lenses also have a stronger flattening effect which can look great when there are lots of lines to compress.

Legislative wheels Continued from page 4

"I received a circular in the mail today and I assume every resident in the community received that. It was a very good update from the president talking about, just as the City manager has talked about, the background of everything. They talked about open houses starting as early as the latter part of October. I think it is a very positive thing when you see a company sending our circulars to everybody and being willing to be open and willing to work with us." Councillor Max Lindstrand said an ongoing concern for him about the proposed development is the water. "I think that is our trump card. It is not possible for the deal to go forward without getting some approvals from the Alberta government about water. I am a bit concerned about the timing of that and how far along we go in the process before we find out about the water." Councillor Lindstrand also expressed concern about the City selling potable water to County residents for less than what it charges Camrose residents. "That has been an ongoing concern of mine. I would encourage engineering to look at whether or not that agreement can be re-opened so we can at least recover as much money when we sell the water to the County as we do when we sell it to our own residents." Councillor Brandon Blatz expressed concern about the increased rail traffic that would result from the proposed development, and questioned whether there was anything that could be done to minimize the number of times the trains that are coming to and leaving the Cargill site have to blow their whistles. "We don't have the gates because it has been cost prohibitive. Hopefully we can work with them to take on some things and we can finally get it back under control."

Committee established By Dan Jensen

Camrose City council passed a bylaw for the establishment of a social development committee Oct. 9. The committee will be made up of two councillors from the City of Camrose, three to five members from related agencies, at least one member at large who is a resident of the city of Camrose, and the economic development officer of the City of Camrose (or a designate). The committee will act as a steering committee for future social needs assessment, identify current social development issues, needs and trends in the community and provide recommendations for action to council, liaise with other groups and individuals charged with social development, including other committees of council, community committees and the general public, and work with City administration to develop a long-term social development vision for the city, as part of the City's strategic plan.

Loaves and Fishes Dinner Water, Water Everywhere... But! Saturday, November 3, 2012 5:00 p.m. Norsemen Inn, Camrose $35 for adults, $20 students, $10 children 12 and under Tickets available at the Sahakarini office, Candler Art Gallery, and Wisemen’s Way, and at the Duggan Mall Farmers’ Market October 20 and 27 For more information call 780-672-8222, or email sahakarini@gmail.com

It's All About Water will be the theme of Sahakarini 12th annual Loaves and Fishes Dinner at the Norsemen Inn Saturday, Nov. 3. Susanna Bruneau and Sarah Skinner, from the Battle River Watershed Alliance, will share stories of their work for water locally, while Odessa Sherbaniuk will share stories from her time in Guatemala, as Sahakarini's intern working with the Kaqchikel Presbytery. "We'll meander from facts and stats to the creative, from Camrose to Chimaltenango, and explore the many ways water shapes our lives and connects our communities," said Sahakarini executive director Tif McNaughton. The dinner will feature a silent auction, as well as a live auction featuring Gordon Schieck's sandals. Sahakarini's projects in India, Kenya, Uganda and Guatemala share a common trait in that they help communities build on their ability to help themselves and have something to do with water. Sahakarini received a grant of $18,800 in matching funds this past summer from the Government of Alberta's Community Initiatives Program in support of its partnership with the Kaqchikel Presbytery. The KP will apply these funds to their projects in stove and water filter installation, micro credit, preventing violence against women, and the protection of local waterways. "This is a large amount of money for which we are very grateful, and, of course, it is not possible to match a big grant like this without our supporters," said McNaughton. "The Loaves and Fishes is our biggest fundraising event of the year. The ticket prices cover the cost of hosting the event, and all the donations go towards the work of our project partners." Tickets for the Loaves and Fishes Dinner are available from Wisemen's Way, Candler, the Sahakarini office, and Sahakarini board members. They may also be purchased at the Camrose Farmers' Market on Oct. 20 and 27.

Gerling takes reins of Regional Exhibition By Dan Jensen

Camrose Regional Exhibition's new chief executive officer, Tom Gerling, is always looking for that better mousetrap. "A lot of people question why I never seem to be content," said Gerling. My answer to them is that if we just always stayed with the status quo we would still be rubbing two sticks together to light a fire. I always think there is a better way." CRE is hoping that Gerling's fresh eyes and new way of looking at things will be just the catalyst it needs to move forward over the next few years. "We have someone here who is progressive thinking and will take this organization and move forward with it in the future," explained CRE board president Stan Skotniczny. "We have many issues that Tom and the board will have to deal with." Gerling has an intimate knowledge of the CRE, having served on the board for 15 years, three of which were as president. At the time of his official CEO appointment Sept. 19 he was serving as chief financial officer, chief operating officer and general manager. "Tom has been holding all three positions since last April," said Skotniczny. "It has been a pretty heavy workload with the amount of work that is done here, the number of event days and all the work that has to be done at Panhandle." Gerling was one of several applicants for the job, which was advertised in publications across Alberta and BC, as well as on the Alberta Association of Ag Society website. "We narrowed it down and three board members did the interviews," said Skotniczny. "I think from the board's perspective we were looking for somebody who could take over the leadership of the organization." Gerling feels it is important for CRE to capitalize on the skills of everyone who is involved in the organization. He sees the staff at Panhandle Productions, for

Tom Gerling was named CRE's chief executive officer Sept. 19.

instance, being able to assist with the planning of in-house events to make them better than they are now. "Maybe they are as good as they can be right now," he said. "I don't think they are personally. It might just be a few tweaks that make a difference. The whole concept is good, it is just maybe some little things that we have to do slightly different." One of Gerling's first priorities will be to hire a chief financial officer. "It is too much for one person to do well," he said. "I have been doing all those jobs until now and there are just not enough hours in the day." Gerling believes the CRE needs to do a better job of promoting itself and marketing what it has to offer, whether it be the big meeting rooms or the excellent food service. He would also like to get away from the not for profit mentality. "Being in business all my life, not for profit doesn't work for me," he said. I am seriously bottom line focused and that

is what we need to do. This is big business. There is a lot going on with Panhandle, the campground, our interest in the casino and the CRE proper." Gerling's attitude is that everyone who passes through CRE's doors needs to be treated as a guest and a potential future user of the facility. "We have to put our best foot forward all the time," he said. Mediocre is not good enough. I am not saying it was mediocre before, but we are the event specialists, so our events, in my mind, need to be perfect, because we are showcasing ourselves to the people who come here. They could be future renters and future users of the facility." Gerling would like to make the front entrance to the exhibition more inviting. "It doesn't take a lot to make that more welcoming and more interesting," he said. "I would like to put up some of the nostalgia we have saved over the years, maybe some showcases. Do a little decorating in there so there is a bit of a wow factor when people walk through the doors." A project on which Gerling has a deep interest in working is the replacement of the existing administration building that would house CRE and Panhandle staff. He feels that having everyone under the same roof would create within the organization even greater synergies. "This building is old and tired and costs us a fortune to heat and a fortune to keep cool because it is just not well made. It is going to cost a lot of money to build something, but that has to be one of our focuses. It will probably be two or three years down the road before we are in a position to do that." While he is happy with where the CRE is financially after two strong years with Big Valley Jamboree, Gerling knows there is a long way still to go. He would like to see the CRE move into a position where the events

that CRE puts on pay their own way, without the need for support from other divisions. "There may be a whole bunch of little things that are going to make the difference. "Our staff members are looking always at how they can reduce and how they can save because we are doing more things inhouse that we used to hire out. So we are going in the right direction. We will keep what works and get rid of the systems and processes that have outlived their usefulness, or adapt them to today. I think the staff is all pretty excited about that." Gerling said there is a lot of money that flows through the community because of the events that are held at the CRE. "You could ask any of the hotels or the restaurants or the retailers. I don't think they would want us to disappear. I know the manager of the gas bar said the weekend of Big Valley is his biggest weekend of the whole year." Gerling said he would like to increase the number of people who volunteer for events at the CRE. "A lot of our volunteers have been with us for years and years and some of them are getting to an age where they can't be out on the site for indefinite periods of time. Do we have to try to develop an event that appeals more to a younger demographic? That might be one of the ways. Our volunteer base has been sllowly shrinking and they are a big component of what we do here." Gerling believes the CRE is just a small step away from becoming the poster child for how exhibitions should operate in Alberta. "We are well positioned. We just have to do a few more things and maybe do things a little differently, and we will be there. Our attitude is to be self sufficient and I think we are not that far away."

Government creating jobs for persons with disabilities Crowfoot Member of Parliament Kevin Sorenson is alerting local businesses and organizations to consider responding to the Conservative government’s Call for Proposals to help employ local constituents with disabilities. “Our top priorities are job creation, economic growth and long-term prosperity, and we know that employers are looking for workers," said Sorenson. "I am proud to announce that our government is helping 1,600 Canadians with disabilities get jobs through the Opportunities Fund program.” Sorenson said the government is taking action that will help small business owners connect willing workers with jobs. "This investment through the Opportunities Fund is designed to provide work experience to Canadians with disabilities that will lead to ongoing employment in small or medium-sized enterprises. We even hope to increase employer awareness of the valuable contribution people with disabilities can make. We are trying to ensure that everyone who wants to work has the opportunity – including under-represented groups such as people with disabilities. I hope our local employers seriously consider this opportunity.” Organizations have until November 16, 2012, to apply. Information is available at www.servicecanada.gc.ca.

IEBA names Werner International Buyer of the Year By Dan Jensen

Larry Werner holds his IEBA award.

Panhandle Productions producer Larry Werner was honoured at the International Entertainment Buyers Association's 42nd annual conference in Nashville Oct. 7 to 9. Werner was chosen over four other nominees to receive IEBA's International Buyer of the Year award. "It is pretty cool to be recognize by your peers and to know that you are in pretty good company in the competition," said Werner. "The award is a thank you for bringing business to the organization." One of the nominees Werner was up against for the award was Rob Potts, from Potts Entertainment Edge, a comprehensive national and international live music and entertainment industry services company in Australia. Another nominee was the

entertainment buyer for the Montreal Jazz Festival. Werner feels the award should make it a little bit easier for him to make phone calls when he is trying to line up acts for Big Valley Jamboree. "I am sure that somewhere in the back of their minds they are going to say 'yeah, maybe we should work with Larry and Big Valley Jamboree,' maybe more so than some other person that might be just trying to create a festival or something, because we already have the history." The IEBA conference had record breaking attendance with nearly 700 delegates who attended daily sessions that included insider panels. The final night of the conference featured the induction of artist Charley Pride, entertainment publisher Ray Pizszak and talent buyer Joe LaGuardia (posthumously) into the IEBA Hall of Fame.

IEBA a non-profit trade organization for live entertainment industry professionals. Founded in 1970, IEBA provides networking, showcasing and educational opportunities to strengthen relationships, foster growth and increase revenue for the live entertainment industry. "What being part of this organization does is that it allows you to meet all the major players in the industry and, in our case, the country music industry," said Werner, who serves on the IEBA board of directors as its first international representative and played an important role in conference preparations. "A lot of people from all over the world come to this convention." Werner said one of his current priorities is to ensure that the momentum Panhandle Productions has created with the last two Big Valley Jamborees continues to grow.

"We are sitting down and trying to figure out how we can maximize and sort of keep that thrust going. Do we have to market things a little differently? Are there certain things that we have to do on site that are going to make the audience more comfortable? How do we present ourselves so that people understand we are always trying to improve the deliverables?" Werner said Panhandle is continuously looking at ways of improving the entertainment at the Jamboree. "Last year in the beer gardens, we had Aaron Pritchett and Charlie Major, and we are looking at doing more of that sort of thing. Again it is always about constantly picking up the level of the entertainment. That is what it is all about and that is the reason people keep coming. They want to see good level entertainment."

Arts Centre featuring works by Jim Brager

CAMROSE & DAYSLAND

By Jane Cherry-Lemire Camrose Arts Society

The Chuck MacLean Arts Centre is proud to present a retrospective of art created by wellknown local artist Jim Brager. This free show will feature work from 1960s to the present. As mentioned in his biography ... like so many others Jim attended a country school east of Camrose and at the time was not exposed much to art. When he attended high school he still did not get much exposure to art. Fortunately for us that did not stop him from pursuing a career as an artist. Several years after high school, Jim enrolled at the Alberta College of Art and graduated in 1971. After his training there he became a commercial artist for Modern Press in Saskatoon designing posters, brochures, flyers, and book covers for Prairie books as well as magazine illustrations for the Western Producer. He also did ad designs, political cartooning and court room illustrations (some of which were used on CBC national news) for the Star Phoenix. In 1976, Jim returned to Camrose with his wife and two sons and started his own business, J.B. Graphics Design Studio and later opened Paulson Street Art Gallery. During this time he was commissioned to create many interesting designs; some that are still used today. He designed the 1990 Winter Games logo, the Ole Uffda mascot and medals. He also designed our city flag. After many years Jim decided to close both of these businesses and built his own home studio so that he could devote his time fully to painting. Jim was accepted in the Alberta Society of Artists in 1994 and became a member of the Canadian Society of Painters in Watercolour in 1996. In 1986, two of his paintings were presented to the crown prince and princess of Norway. In 1989, the Alberta Government federal interprovincial affairs department selected paintings by Jim to present to each of the premiers when a Western Premiers' Conference was hosted in Camrose that year. In 2002, the City of Camrose presented one of Jim’s paintings to hockey player Dominik Hasek. Jim has conducted many workshops in Western Canada and Arizona and was thrilled to be asked to teach in Germany in May of 2011. Some beautiful samples of this visit are a part of this show. Jim believes his paintings are continually evolving and that he always has room for improvement. He enjoys painting scenes from his travels but painting the western Canadian landscape is where he derives the most inspiration. Jim is enjoying retirement, spending time with grandchildren and travelling. He invites you to stop by to take in the show until October 30.

Tom H. Ross

July 14, 1923 – October 11, 2012 Evelyn Augusta Fuller of Camrose, formerly of Duhamel, passed away Thursday, October 11, 2012 at the age of 89 years. Left to cherish her memory are her children Carol (Leon) Young of Bashaw, Gloria Watts of Calgary, Stan (Ema) Fuller of Edmonton, Ken (Sharon) Fuller of Camrose, David (June) Fuller of St. Albert, Peggy (Leroy) Aumuller of Camrose and Terry (Lesa) Fuller of Calgary; 29 grandchildren; 40 great-grandchildren; brother Gordon Yates of Ayr, Ontario; sisters Della Smith of Edmonton and Betty DeWolfe of Camrose; and family friend Bernie Brady. Evelyn was predeceased by her husband Harry; grandson Timothy; and brother Dennis. Funeral Services will be held at 1:00 p.m., Wednesday, October 17, 2012 from Camrose United Church with Rev. Brian Hunter officiating. Interment will follow in New Norway Cemetery.

To send condolences please visit www.burgarfuneralhome.com.

April 1, 1950 – October 7, 2012 Tom Ross passed away at age 62 from complications following a double lung transplant. He was the fourth generation of Rosses to farm in the Duhamel area along the Battle River valley. Tom completed a B.Sc. in Agriculture at the University of Alberta in 1972. He built up the dairy herd and was proud of the Brigend Farm Holsteins. Tom will be remembered for being quiet, generous, humorous and a really nice guy. He was well read and had a huge curiosity. He was always learning something new. He will be greatly missed by his sisters Beverley Ross, Louise (Jim) Welsh, Shirley Ross (Richard Davy), Dorothy (Allan) Weimer and Linda Ross; and nieces Louella (Keith) Petherbridge, Dawnaca (Stan) Martin and Alisa (Arron) Kolenosky and their families. He was predeceased by his parents Marian and Herb Ross. The family would like to acknowledge the tremendous support and care that Tom received from the staff of the University of Alberta Hospital Lung Transplant Program and CVICU during the past year. Our thanks also go to many neighbours and friends for their comfort and kindness. Tom supported a variety of charities, and donations in his memory may go to a charity of choice. A memorial service was held on October 13, 2012 at Burgar Funeral Home, Camrose with Rev. Bob Smith officiating.

Augustana runners are fine tuning training as ACAC finals approach By Murray Green The Augustana Vikings hosted a grand prix cross-country running race on Sept. 29 as the team prepares for the championships. "The weather was fantastic, and we had some great results in both the men's and the women's races," said assistant coach Robert Renman. "It was great to see so many runners out on our trails." The women's race had 88 runners, and the men's race had 92. It was open to all runners and not just university or college students. In the women's five kilometre race, open runner Jessica O'Connell finished first with a very fast time of 18:19. It was close to the course record. The top Alberta Colleges Athletic Conference runner was Grant MacEwan's Alexandra Gordichuk with a time of 19:56. In the men's eight kilometre race, open runner Hosea Kibet Rutto (from Kenya) won the overall race in a blazing fast time of 24:55, and the top ACAC male was Lethbridge's Solomon Ngetich. "The Augustana teams did very well, with a fourth place team finish for both men and women," said Robert. The top Augustana runners were Kalli Green (11th in the ACAC competition) and Ryan Burlingame (12th in the ACAC competition). "We now look forward to the NAIT race on Oct. 13 to get us ready for the finals," said

Robert. The Augustana Vikings will be hosting the ACAC championship finals in Camrose on Oct. 27. Hockey The Alberta Colleges Athletic Conference champion Augustana Vikings hockey team began the journey to defend the title with a 7-2 victory over the Portage Voyageurs on Oct. 10. The Vikings also host the Grant MacEwan Griffins on Oct. 20 and the SAIT Trojans on Oct. 27, starting at 7:30 p.m. Volleyball Augustana's regular season in volleyball begins on Oct. 26 when the Keyano Huskies visit the Rose City. The women's match begins at 6 p.m. and the men follow at 8 p.m. The same two colleges battle again the next day with start times of 1 and 3 p.m. at Augustana. Basketball The Vikings tip off the season in Medicine Hat on Oct. 26 and then take on the Briercrest Clippers in Saskatchewan the next day. The home opening series for Augustana will be on Nov. 2 against the SAIT Trojans and Nov. 3 when the Olds Broncos provide the opposition. Start times for both days are at 6 and 8 p.m.

Off and running

A total of 88 runners started the women's race of the grand prix that was hosted by the Augustana Vikings. The run was won by Jessica O'Connell in the open division. Alexandra Gordichuk of Grant MacEwan placed first in the college division and Kallie Green of the Vikings was the top Augustana competitor in 11th place. Left, Augustana runner Victoria Frivold of Norway, takes a rest after the race in the valley.

25% OFF! Augustana staff, students collect coins for library By Murray Green Staff and students at the University of Alberta Augustana Campus collected money for a new library on Oct. 3. The Augustana library is still new, but a challenge was issued between staff and students to raise funds for a new library in Kenya. The Coins for Kenya: The Amazing Race raised $967.55 for a total of $2,127.55 for the project. Augustana head librarian Nancy Goebel went to Nairobi to work with librarians from the AgaKhan University system. Margaret Law, associate director of international relations for the University of Alberta Libraries, invited Augustana to help

the local librarians develop their skills and create strategies to support student research. During Nancy's stay in Nairobi, Nancy met a librarian who is working with Margaret Law to build a library in his community of Ndwara, Kenya. This led to the Coins for Kenya: The Amazing Race project. Nancy and students Geordie Nelson and Carolina Malloy applied two-sided tape to the floor of the forum that was colourcoded. A challenge was issued between staff and students. Nancy will be returning to Nairobi this fall and visiting the village in western Kenya where the library is to be built once enough funds

have been raised. Currently, the nearest library is 60 kilometres from the town. Applied to the tape was money from around the world, including coins from Kenya. The race went out of control. "At first we just circled around the area. It filled up quickly, so we kept adding to it. It has circled several times and has gone up and down the stairs. This is more than I first imagined," said Nancy. "The response has been great." The Ndwara community has a population of about 1,500

Augustana hockey raises banner, wins opening game By Murray Green

After a month of pre-season matches and a steady diet of practices, the Augustana Vikings finally hit the ice in a meaningful Alberta Colleges Athletic Conference contest on Oct. 10. The Vikings raised last year’s championship banner to the rafters and then went to work. Captain Dan Hope led the charge with two goals and two assists as the Vikings defeated the Portage Voyageurs 7-2. All of the scoring came in the first two periods. Augustana netted three goals before Portage answered back. The Vikings led 5-1 after the first period and 7-2 going into the third. On offence, Scott Aucoin picked up three assists while Dean Prpick, Adam Johnson and Craig Cornelsen each collected a goal and an assist. Goalie Joel Danyluk made 24 of 26 saves in the Vikings' net. Augustana Murray Green, Camrose Booster Portage Voyageurs defenceman Troy Dumais guides the puck past his own goal before the Augustana Vikings line of Devon Hobbs, fired 35 shots at two Portage netminders. The Vikings host the Grant MacE20, Boyd Wakelin, 96, and Dane Bonish, 26, can get a hold of it during the opening game of the Alberta Colleges Athletic Conference hockey season at the EnCana Arena on Oct. 10. The Vikings started to defend its championship with a 7-2 victory. wan Griffins on Oct. 20 at 7:30 p.m.

Atom Buffaloes suffer series of home losses By Murray Green

Playing at home has not been kind to the Camrose Buffaloes atom football team. The Buffaloes faced the Edmonton Seahawks in a battle of 1-3 teams at Kin Park on Oct. 6. The Seahawks soared to a 12-6 victory. "We suffered our third straight home loss and we had a chance to tie the game with two plays left in the game, but could not punch it in," said coach Fitz Sherman. "This was definitely another defensive battle with both teams

evenly matched. On offense, we were able to move the ball with some quarterback bootlegs mixed with some wide receiver reverses that went for some long gains." With cooler weather, the running game is very important. "We could not get our passing game on track and could not move the ball up the middle. Our defense came up big again for most of the game, with the defensive line applying constant pressure at the initial point of contact," added Fitz. "Once again the line caused

and recovered several fumbles and had a few sacks. With the number of turnovers we recovered, we failed to capitalize and put some points on the board. We were in the red zone several times, but we were not able to convert." Defence is the strongest phase of the Buffaloes game right now. "We will be making some changes to our offence this week and work hard in practice to improve our offensive production." The Camrose Buffaloes atom football squad and the St. Albert

Buccaneers battled in a defensive struggle, 12-0, with the local team coming out on the short end of the score. A couple of turnovers led to all of the Buccaneers points. "It was a defensive struggle the entire game as both teams had numerous turnovers," explained coach Fitz. "There were many two and outs by both teams. The defence played well, especially our defensive line, which was able to apply pressure for most of the game." The Buffaloes' offence was not able to sustain drives and

had trouble running the ball due to the pressure of the Buccaneers line. "We then went to the passing game and were quite successful. Our quarterback went three for six for 70 yards. This was definitely a winnable game and a big improvement from our last game." Standout players for the game were the defensive line (Noah Segal, Josh Moores, Kevin Kittler, and Joe McDougall), defensive halfback Ethan Hansen and quarterback Owen MacPherson.

Terrain Denali New level of style and power

By Dan Jensen

The 2013 GMC Terrain Denali at McClellan Wheaton Chevrolet Buick GMC Camrose brings a new level of style and power to the luxury small SUV market. Terrain Denali cabin updates are highlighted by soft-touch jet black leather, which lines the seats and door inserts. Front seatbacks are embossed with Denali logos, while the leatherwrapped steering wheel has smoked mahogany wood accents. The driver and front passenger seats have eight-way power. Contrast stitching and red accent lighting contribute to a sense of warmth. Terrain Denali comes standard with many of GMC's leading technologies, including a colour touch radio with IntelliLink. This new infotainment system features a reconfigurable home screen, intuitive voice commands, Bluetooth smartphone integration, control of streaming internet radio apps such as Pandora and Stitcher, and iPod controls with Gracenote music database technology. Convenience features such as a programmable power liftgate are standard on Terrain Denali. At the touch of a button, owners can access the vehicle's 63.9 cubic feet of cargo space (behind the first row). A memory function stops the liftgate at a chosen height to help shorter drivers or accommodate low garage heights.

Exterior features include a signature chrome grille, satin chrome accents, body colour front and rear fascias, body colour rocker panels with satin chrome molding, new headlamp and taillamp designs, and dual chrome finish exhaust outlets. Fuel efficient

Terrain's standard Ecotec 2.4 litre I-4 with direct injection and continuously variable valve timing is designed for buyers looking to combine Denali's high-end appointments with best-in-class highway fuel efficiency (2WD model). Front-wheel drive is standard on Terrain Denali, although all-wheel drive is available. The new 3.6 litre V-6 with direct injection and continuously variable valve timing replaces a 3.0 litre V-6 engine in the Terrain lineup. SAE certified, this engine makes more power (301 horsepower) and torque (272 lb.-ft.), but is expected to deliver fuel economy equal to its predecessor. The new V-6 uses lightweight components, like an integrated cylinder head/ exhaust manifold design, and a composite intake manifold saves about 5.5 pounds vs. an aluminum intake. Additional weight is saved by a structural front cover with high-strength connecting rods. New dual-flow dampers are exclusive to the Terrain Denali's suspension system. This technology provides a smoother ride and improved handling by controlling suspension dampening across a

Pete Pastuck McClellan Wheaton Chevrolet Buick GMC broader range of driving conditions. Safe

Terrain Denali's standard safety systems include forward collision alert and lane departure warning, as well as Denali-exclusive side blind zone and rear cross traffic alert. Forward collision alert and lane departure warning use the industry's first single-camera crash-avoidance system to visually and audibly warn drivers when a collision is imminent or the vehicle crosses a lane marker without a turn signal engaged. Side blind zone and rear cross traffic alert help avoid collisions by using radar to watch for spots the driver may not be able to see â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and provide visible and audible warnings. When another

vehicle is in the Terrain's blind zone, a yellow icon is illuminated on either side view mirror. Rear cross traffic alert displays warnings on the in-cabin connectivity screen, which also displays footage from Terrain's standard rear view camera. As with every new GMC, Terrain Denali comes with six free months of OnStar's Directions and Connections plan. It includes automatic crash response, turn-by-turn navigation, roadside assistance, emergency services link, stolen vehicle assistance, and remote door unlock. Available technologies include colour touch navigation and a rear seat entertainment system. GMC has manufactured

trucks since 1902, and is one of the industry's healthiest brands. Innovation and engineering excellence is built into all GMC vehicles, and the brand is evolving to offer more fuel efficient trucks and crossovers, including the Terrain small SUV and Acadia crossover. GMC is the only manufacturer to offer three full-size hybrid trucks with the Yukon, Yukon Denali, SUVs, and the Sierra pickup. Details on all GMC models are available at http://www.gmc.com/, on Twitter at @thisisgmc, or at http:// www.facebook.com/gmc. You can see the 2013 Chevrolet Terrain Denali at McClellan Wheaton Chevrolet Buick GMC at 3850-48 Avenue, Camrose. Phone 780-672-2355 and ask for one of the friendly sales professionals.

Kodiaks defeat fellow bears in extra period By Murray Green

OCTOBER INSERTION

Nolan Marshall scored a shorthanded goal in overtime to snap the Camrose Kodiaks' losing streak with a 2-1 victory in the EnCana Arena on Oct. 6. The Olds Grizzlys netted a power play marker in the first period and Camrose fought back with a goal from Josh Smith in the second frame. After a scoreless third, Camrose made the most of its chances in the extra frame. Early in the season the Kodiaks won five straight games before they learned how to lose. "We went into a slide because we

got used to winning too much at the beginning of the season," said forward Cam Gotaas. "We didn't buy into the system for a couple of games and it started a snowball effect. Now that we got the overtime win against Olds and played well against Brooks, we are back on the track we want to be going on now. We need to play like we have in the last two games and listen to what the coaching staff has to say." Olds outshot the Kodiaks 43-33, but Camrose goalie Devin McDonald made 42 saves to give his team a chance to win. Continued on page 31

The rookie had some good advice on how to get out of the slump. "We need to shoot more and try to get into the scoring zones. Shooting is the big thing. We weren't shooting as much during our slide. The last couple of games we have been doing that better. Just getting more scoring chances is the key," said Cam. "Coach (Boris Rybalka) has been harping on us to shoot to score. Shooting is important at any level. Whoever is not shooting has to get into the scoring areas for tips, rebounds and go to the areas some players don't like going to get the puck." Cam came to the Kodiaks because of the team's wining tradition and the fact he has some relatives in the area. "The winning tradition and the good coaching staff made the decision to come here an easy one," said Cam. "So far, everything has been shaping up to what I thought it was like and even better. Having family close to Camrose and looking up in warm-up and seeing my grandma and grandpa watching is a great feeling. Even though I'm from Sherwood Park, I feel like a hometown player." Cam's father Steve was raised in the Ohaton area and went on to play for the Pittsburgh Penguins after his Camrose minor hockey days. "The veterans on this team made the younger guys feel welcome, so it was an easier transition. We are fitting in and don't feel out of place at all. It is a learning curve to get used to the system. It is a jump from midget to juniors, but all of the rookies are progressing well, which is good to see. "We have a lot of rookies with good hockey sense, so it is a quick transition. It might take a little longer than expected, but we can speed up that process because we have smart rookies." The Brooks Bandits stole two points from the Kodiaks by scoring three straight power play goals in the second period and went on to win 4-2. Camrose opened the scoring with Luc Lemire finding the back of the net. Then Brooks went to work when the Kodiaks ran into penalty trouble. Nelson Gadoury grabbed one power play tally back to keep the game close until Brooks added an empty net goal. "Our goalies have been playing well," said Cam. "It is reassuring on the bench, knowing that your goalies have your back and can make a big save for you. It is important for us to get the lead, because we have the confidence in our goalies to stop the puck when we need a big save." Matt Gabney stopped 26 of 29 shots in the Camrose net to keep the team within striking distance for 59 minutes.

Family show at Bailey

SAVE UP TO $100 ON SELECT GOODYEAR TIRES. HURRY IN. BUT DON’T SPEED.

By Jane Cherry-Lemire Director, Camrose Arts Society

Looking for a fun way to spend some time with your child(ren)? If so, you might want to consider picking up tickets for the Splash 'n Boots show scheduled from 7 to 8 p.m., on October 20, at the Bailey Theatre. Local group About Time Productions creative movement class will also be performing the opening number. The Camrose Arts Society is proud to bring the second of a family series of good quality family entertainment. We are thankful to Harberg Nikiforuk Wood for being a partner and hope that other businesses will join us for upcoming shows. We also hope to be able to access a small grant through the Alberta Foundation for the Arts. As a not for profit organization that believes in the value of arts and culture for a community, it is very much appreciated to have help in bringing such great acts to Camrose. Splash 'n Boots became known to the Camrose Arts Society after seeing it at Alberta showcase in Edmonton last year. It was wonderful! Very interactive and full of energy and, although it was billed as children’s entertainment, we as adults were also thoroughly entertained! Splash 'n Boots consists of Teas and Nick, a husband and wife duo from Kingston, Ontario, who play very well off each other both musically and humorously! Splash 'n boots was started in 2003 and has never looked back. It has been awarded Canadian Children’s Group of the Year (INDIES), Children’s Album of the Year (twice), John Lennon’s Songwriting winners, ‘Best of the Best’ international iParenting Award. Splash 'n Boots has performed over 1,200 shows in the past six years across Canada from coast to coast and around the world. It has shared the stage with Fred Penner, Sharon and Bram, Robert Munsch, Al Simmons and the Wiggles Characters.

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.

City legislative services coordinator Jenny Wallace told council Oct. 9 that the Alberta Centre for Injury Control & Research focuses on seniors living in the community and is encouraging them to take preventive measures to avoid falls, including

keeping active, having their medications reviewed, reducing environmental hazards around their homes, and managing dizziness. Statistics show that one in three seniors will fall each year, and that 50 per cent of them are falling repeatedly. The stats also note that seniors have nine times more falls than other groups in Alberta, and that falls among

seniors will result in over 7,700 hospital admissions each year. "Individuals and organizations from a multitude of disciplines across Alberta are working together to raise awareness of this issue and encourage Albertans to take steps to prevent falling," states the proclamation. "The quality of life is improved for Alberta seniors who remain healthy, active and independent."

Council also proclaimed November Diabetes Awareness Month. "Diabetes is a serious condition affecting more than two million Canadians and is a leading cause of death by disease," states the proclamation. "There is a great need to raise funds for research into better methods of treatment, and ultimately a cure, and the Canadian Diabetes Association is focusing public

attention on the need for funds for diabetes research, education, service and advocacy." The Canadian Diabetes Association has advised the City that from October 15 to November 15, volunteers and staff will be sharing important information about the seriousness of diabetes in various ways, including community presentations and a doorto-door residential campaign.

Accomplished Albertans recognized for outstanding contributions Three accomplished Albertans will be recognized for their significant professional contributions and inducted into the Agriculture Hall of Fame. Each inductee has been a catalyst for change in advancing their areas of expertise. The inductees are Dr. Tom Droog, Dr. Ieuan Evans, and Mabel Church Hamilton. “These three individuals are terrific champions for their industries and have dedicated their lives to ensuring Alberta’s agricultural industry progresses in new ways,” said Verlyn Olson, Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development. “I am honoured to induct these three individuals and thank them for their dedication, ingenuity and hard work.” Dr. Tom Droog of DeWinton, and his late wife, Emmy, started growing sunflowers as an alternative crop and soon turned Spitz, which sells sunflower and pumpkin seeds in re-sealable bags, into a snack product that captured 75 per cent of the Canadian market. Parkland County’s Dr. Ieuan Evans determined that prairie soil lacking copper hampers cereal production and when the mineral was added crop yields soared. As a horticulturalist, he propagated a species of cherry tree that is now sold commercially throughout Canada and the United States. Mabel Church Hamilton of Innisfail, helped establish Angus cattle as one of the largest and most influential breeds in Canada. As a founding member of the Canadian Cattle Identification Agency, she was instrumental in establishing the national cattle identification program. Since 1951, the Alberta Agriculture Hall of Fame has recognized outstanding con-
