Merry Christmas Fund needs your support to supply food hampers By Murray Green
The Camrose Merry Christmas Fund started in 1965 to supply food hampers to less fortunate local families. Although the people have changed, the need to provide community support hasn't. Last year the Merry Christmas Fund supplied more than 250 food hampers by raising just over $25,000. "Our goal this year is about the same as last year. We are estimating the number of hampers to be more than 250 and again our target goal is to raise $25,000 to cover the cost of the food," said public relations chair Dale Debnam. "We are hoping people will donate earlier this year because we would like to pay for the food on Dec. 18 when it is delivered. We would like to know if we can pay for the groceries." Donations can be made at the Royal Bank and at the Camrose Fire Department. The Camrose Merry Christmas Fund is a registered charity, so people will be mailed a tax receipt during the first two weeks in January. The hampers are delivered to homes on Saturday, Dec. 21, in the morning. "We need volunteer delivery people and we are asking for volunteers to be in pairs to carry the food. We meet at the current Fire Hall starting at 9 a.m. to start delivering hampers," said Dale. Organizers ask that not everyone arrives right at that time because volunteers need space to help people load. "Thanks to the help of the Camrose Post Office and the trucks, we are usually done by noon," said Dale. "We always need help unpacking the food on Wednesday, sorting them and putting them into boxes on Thursday prior to the delivery. We need help on Dec. 18 and 19, as well as delivering the hampers." Dale agreed it is a good outing for families who want to expose their children to a way of getting them into the Christmas spirit and helping others" The food hampers are intended to provide a good Christmas meal and food for an entire day. "If someone wants to have a hamper delivered to them or a family, they have to register at the Neighbor Aid Center," said Dale. The number at the centre is 780-679-3220. "The community has supported this project for many years and we are thankful for that," added Dale. "We are looking for the community to come through for us again to make Christmas a little brighter for everyone." Volunteers also help deliver toys packaged by the Kinettes. "Some hampers will also have toys to deliver at the same address. The Kinettes sort and package the toys, the Lions Club picks them up and drops them off to us and we send them out with the food hampers," explained Dale. "If volunteers have a small vehicle we give them hampers without a lot of toys and those who have a larger vehicle can take more." For more information, or to volunteer with the Merry Christmas Fund contact Larry Schultz at 780-672-1493. If you need a donation picked up contact Dale Debnam at 780-6728777.

School Division trustee submits resignation By Dan Jensen
The Battle River School Division board of trustees accepted the resignation of newly-elected member Jim Andre at a special meeting on the morning of Nov. 12. "He presented it to the business superintendent, Imogene Walsh, and she presented it to the board," explained BRSD board of trustees chair Kendall Severson. Andre came under fire after the Oct. 21 election when it was learned that he had tweeted and retweeted inappropriate remarks on Twitter. In a statement dated Nov. 11 he apologized to all those who voted for him and the communities he represented. "In no way did I intend any of this to happen, and I can only ask that you support the rest of the board and their decisions as they move forward in their roles as elected officials," said Andre. Knowing
them for a short time I know they will do what is right for your children's education." Andre would not go into specifics as to why he was stepping down. "I will only say that I do not want to tarnish the reputation of the board of trustees any further," he said. "It is time for the board to move forward from this and get on with the business at hand, which is providing for the best education for our students. I know they will make their electors proud." Kendall expressed appreciation on behalf of the Battle River School Division to all those who took the time to express their thoughts and concerns on the issue. "The experience has provided a vivid demonstration of the value that our local residents, our province and our country places on treating all people with respect, dignity and equity, regardless of their ethnicity, reli-
gion, gender or orientation," said Severson. "The values expressed by our communities are very much in keeping with the values of Battle River School Division." BRSD's trustee code of ethics policy states that trustees are the children's advocates and that their first and greatest concern is the best interest of each and every one of these children, without distinction to who they are or what their background may be. The policy further states that the board believes that its fundamental obligation is to preserve, if not enhance, the public trust in education. Severson said it has been heartwarming to hear the high regard citizens hold for the position of school trustee. "In the days ahead, we at BRSD intend to ensure all board members to continue to uphold these high standards and expectations at all times."
Severson said the board has committed to undertaking social media and digital citizenship training, and will follow through on that promise as quickly as possible. He also noted that the board is committed to reviewing existing policies with an eye to implementing or adapting additional means of ensuring trustees are accountable and policies align with the changing realities of the world. BRSD trustees gained strength from the need to respond quickly to Andre's tweets. "We have learned from each other. What has been really exciting to me is how quickly we have bonded together," said Severson. "I am very pleased with how everything has been going so far." Severson was happy the matter was resolved before the board's first regular business meeting on Nov. 14. "I think it would have
drawn away from the many other issues and items on the agenda that must be dealt with," he said. "I am pleased that this happened ahead of schedule." Battle River School Division believes character education is an essential component of a child's development. Each school within the division has already created a Culture of Success framework which helps ensure students at each site feel welcome, safe, and like they belong. "Our superintendent has hosted an equity committee in previous years made up of students, parents and staff from throughout the division, which focuses on seeing issues from the perspective of others," said Severson. "We will build on these existing philosophies to ensure all trustees and staff are role modelling the behaviours we teach our division's children."

Camrose City council isn’t going to be in a big hurry to approve the 2014 municipal operating budget. Council has given formal approval to a process that will allow it to adopt an interim budget before the end of the year and continue with budget deliberations throughout the month of January. The Municipal Government Act requires that council have an operating budget by the end of each year. “Council can pass an operating budget, or, alternatively, it can pass an interim budget,” said City manager Damian Herle in a report to council Nov. 12. “The interim budget process, in reality, sets council budget duties over to early in the next calendar year. Under the interim budget process, an operating budget needs to be approved by the end of December and any budget adjustments need to occur early in the year, as council is required to set property tax rates by early May.” Continued on page 7

Mayor Norm Mayer said that while it would be nice to have the budget deliberations wrapped up by the end of the year, council does not need to jam meetings together to make that happen. “If we are backed into a corner we can go interim.” Councillor Wayne Throndson expressed his preference to adopt an interim budget. “I don’t see any negative impact. Things don’t grind to a halt,” said Throndson. “Even if we approve a budget at a 60 per cent level things can continue on the operating and capital side.” Throndson said prolonging the budget deliberations into January or February will be useful in helping council digest the core services review. “That is going to be useful to our deliberations. It is the most important thing that we do.”

Councillor Bill Sears said he would like to see the budget finished by November or December. “We still have to meet a deadline, we might as well meet it in November and December.” Councillor Greg Wood said he has had concern about budgets in the past where too much information is presented to council in too short a period of time. He added he would like to see council provided with more information on what services are provided at the City of Camrose facilities and what staff at each of the facilities do. “I would like to see information presented on a global basis, saying this is where the money goes and this is what is feeding at the trough.” Councillor Agnes Hoveland said she prefers the idea of an interim budget as it will provide council

with more time to do due diligence. She said she would like to know which groups and projects would be affected by an interim budget. Councillor Kevin Hycha said the interim budget would give council more time to familiarize itself with the various City departments and the core services review. Departmental presentations in the past have consisted of a review of services provided and budgets required to maintain services, programs and operate municipal facilities. Councillors Max Lindstrand and Ray McIsaac said they do not see any downside to an interim budget where 60 per cent of the spending is authorized by the end of the year. “It would allow us to buy time and see what other economic impacts are there,” said Lindstrand.

Festival of Trees at CRE this weekend By Dan Jensen
Camrose Regional Exhibition will be inviting you to "Share the Magic" at this year's Festival of Trees. "It's an awesome event for the community and one that marks the beginning of the Christmas season," said CRE major events and international agricultural marketing manager Marilyn Lee. "I know a lot of people consider it one of their mustattend events." Hours of operation for the Festival of Trees will be noon to 9 p.m. Nov. 22, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Nov. 23 and noon to 5 p.m. Nov. 23. Disco and gala dinner A couple of always popular mid-week events designed to appeal and old alike will set the stage for what is to follow. Camrose Chrysler will be presenting a Teddy Bear Disco at the CRE for children 12 years of age and under (who are accompanied by an adult) from 6 to 8 p.m. Nov. 20. Those who bring a non-perishable food item or cash donation for Camrose and District Food Bank will receive $1 off the cost of admission. Central Agencies will present an Unwrap the Magic Opening Night Gala Dinner starting at 6 p.m. Nov. 21. "This special gala dinner is the sneak peak opening night of the Festival, featuring live and silent auctions, entertainment and beautifully decorated trees," said Lee. "Enjoy the sights and sounds of the Christmas season." Special guest performers at the gala will be Alberta musicians/comedians Lewis and Royal. “One of the best acts I’ve seen in years," said a review by Sean Buckley, artistic director of Celtic Folk. "Totally relaxed, great banter, brilliant complimen-
An example of the beautiful trees you will see at the Festival of Trees this weekend.
tary musicianship – a great package well in tune with their audience – and they are totally Alberta. Display trees Camrose schools, human service agencies, non-profit agencies, churches, clubs and organizations are being invited to participate in the Festival of Trees by entering special display trees and gingerbread houses. "We have decided to do away with the competition aspect for the trees and gingerbread houses," explained Lee. "The way we see it all the entries are creative and
worthwhile and all deserve the same recognition. "All of them are winners in our eyes." Trees will be grouped according to the age ranges of those competing (cubs, scouts, service clubs). The Festival will feature a wide variety of entertainment from local groups. Thistle Hill Petting Zoo will be letting children get up close to the animals. Hours of operation for the petting zoo are 1 to 8 p.m. Friday, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday. Santa Claus will be
making appearances at the Festival between 2 and 4 p.m. and 7 and 9 p.m. on Friday, 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. and 2 to 4 p.m. on Saturday, and 1 to 3 p.m. on Sunday. The daily Children's World will provide the opportunity for children to have their faces painted, play games or make Christmas crafts. The Festival of Trees will have a separate area to purchase trees (decorated or not) and decorations. "We have always had lots of comments at previous festivals from people wanting to buy a tree or certain decorations, so this tree area, which is separate from the special trees, is in response to that," said Lee. Proceeds from the Camrose Festival of Trees will be donated to the Merry Christmas Cheer Fund, children's organizations and the Battle River Community Foundation. The Camrose Festival of Trees has come a long way as a family-oriented event since it was first held in 1995. "It is not unusual for us to get 10,000 to 15,000 people through the doors, some from as far as Saskatchewan," said Lee. Planning for this year's Festival of Tree began as soon as the 2012 event ended. "We learn a little bit more each time we do it and are always tweaking things," said Lee. "We buy our own decorations and things for the next festival in the weeks leading up to Christmas." Festival sponsors include NuEdge Construction Ltd., Superior Show Service, Camrose Chrysler, McTavish Deliveries, Lynx, Central Agencies, 790 CFCW and the Government of Alberta. "We can't thank our sponsors enough," said Lee. "We wouldn't be able to do this without them."
Good selection of vendors at Spirits of Christmas By Dan Jensen
The Festival of Trees will once again be held in conjunction with the Camrose Arts Society's Spirits of Christmas Craft Sale and Trade Show. "We have a good number of vendors who will be selling everything from Pampered Chef cookware to candles and cards," said Spirits of Christmas coordinator Debra Hannaford. "Right now (Nov. 6) I would say we have 26 vendors on the trade show side in the main area beside the Festival of Trees and about 60 on the craft show side in the Kinsmen Hall with room for more. If there are other people who are interested in displaying their art work or crafts they can call me at 780678-2566." The Spirits of Christmas Craft Sale and Trade Show will feature a new layout this year that Hannaford feels will make it easier to move around. "It's going to be more open and result in more aisle space," said Hannaford. "It is a going to be more traffic friendly." The Spirits of Christmas Craft Sale and Trade Show is the major fundraiser of the Camrose Arts Society.
Early deadline for Camrose and District Music Festival Submitted by Cathy Kennedy, Festival Secretary, Camrose and District Music Festival
The 2014 Camrose and District Music Festival will be held Monday, March 24 to Friday, March 18, with the Grand Concert taking place on Saturday, March 29. The entry deadline this year will be Saturday, January 18, so the time to be planning your entries is now! The Alberta Festival syllabus is now online at www. albertamusicfestival.org. The 2014 Camrose Festival will offer online registration for the first time at www.camros-
emusicfestival.ca. For those without internet access, paper registration forms will be available in December from The UPS Store in Camrose or Music Centre Canada. The Festival is an annual opportunity for the music, dance and speech students, as well as community choirs and bands in Camrose and area to showcase their talents and to receive workshop style adjudications from adjudicators with exceptional credentials in their various fields of study. Each year, a number of individuals and groups are recommended to compete
at the Provincial Music Festival in Edmonton in May. In addition, about $2,500 in scholarships for further study are presented at the end of the festival as well as medallions and trophies for exceptional performances. In 2013, six soloists and two choirs were recommended to provincials and three soloists achieved second place awards. Camrose Camerata went on to win first place in their category at the National festival. It takes many volunteers and much financial support to run the festival each year. The
Festival organizing committee is grateful for the strong support it has received from the Camrose community in past years. The $21,000 Camrose Festival budget is funded mainly from generous donations from local individuals and businesses whose donations are acknowledged in the Festival programs. New donors are always needed and welcome. Also, approximately 100 volunteer positions must be filled for festival week and new volunteers are desperately needed. This is a wonderful opportunity for the people of Camrose to
hear, celebrate and support some of the amazing talent among the young people in our community. The festival will run mornings, afternoons and some evenings during the last week of March at various churches and schools around the city. Watch for schedule details in early March. For further information or to offer your support by donating or volunteering please consult the festival website at www.camrosemusicfestival.ca, locate the box ad in this paper or call the Festival Secretary at 780-679-0122.

Councillor PJ Stasko said while he likes the idea of an interim budget, council has to make sure that there is not funding that is falling through the cracks.
Herle said approval of the City operating and capital budgets will allow for seamless continuity of the work the City is doing with repairs and maintenance to public facilities, and if budgeting were to start in 2014 it is unlikely
from a time commitment perspective that strategic planning could proceed at the same time. Herle noted as well that several financial services staff are involved in the budgeting process and that the start of the year
means considerable work and resources required for year-end financial matters. City administration is recommending that the 2014 capital budget be approved on the same date as the operating budget.

The holiday season is dominated by parties, family gatherings and festive foods. Overindulgence in rich foods and drink during the holiday season, compounded by cold weather that can make it difficult to exercise, often leads to weight gain by the end of the holiday season. But focusing on diet and exercise during the holiday season can help you avoid unwanted weight gain and provide more energy as the season progresses. The following are some effective ways to sail through the season without gaining weight.

The body is a powerful machine, but it does EAST SIDE, in Best Western Hotel, 780.679.0971 DOWNTOWN, 4980-50 Street, 780.679.0909 not always work the way that we want it to. www.inspirationssalonandspa.com According to nutritional experts, rather than metabolizing food on a daily basis, the body is geared to work over longer periods of time. That means you can balance out a high-calorie day by eating less food and/or lighter fare on the days before and after those days when you anticipate overeating.
• Fill up before you go out. If you are worried about high-calorie foods and drinks that are often served at parties or holiday gatherings, eat before going to the event. Hunger may cause you to overeat and fill up on the wrong kinds of foods. Instead, eat a low-calorie snack that’s high in protein and high in fiber before leaving the house. Eating beforehand may help you avoid the chips and dips.

• Get plenty of sunshine when possible. Lack of sunlight can attribute to winter blues, which may lead some people to rely on comfort foods. Such foods are typically rich in carbohydrates, fats and sugars. Spending time outdoors in the sun each day can improve your mood and get you off of the couch. • Fill up your plate with the right mix of foods. Don’t deny yourself when faced with a big holiday dinner. Rather, fill the plate with a good mix of foods. Devote more space to lean proteins, such as roasted turkey or chicken. Even lean ham is good. Devote much of the rest of your plate to roasted vegetables and whole grains. Take only small portions of high-fat foods like candied yams or bread stuffings. You will still satisfy your craving, but you won’t be overdoing it. • Skip the spirits for the most part. Alcoholic beverages are loaded with empty calories. Many people would rather reserve bonus calories for a piece of pie or a rich brownie. Limit yourself to one drink per day. Exercise every day. It can be easy to push exercise aside when you’re busy with holiday tasks. But soon your metabolism may slow down in response to your body’s suddenly more sedentary lifestyle, leading to weight gain. Aim for some sort of daily exercise, whether you decide to park further away from stores at the mall or take the stairs instead of the escalator. Don’t relegate exercise to a New Year’s resolution. Inactivity will only mean you have to work harder in the future to shed those unwanted pounds you packed on during the holiday season. Weight gain may be another part of the holiday season for many men and women. But individuals concerned about adding extra pounds can stop the pattern of gaining weight during the holiday season by making smart choices throughout the season.

Rotary calling for submissions By Dan Jensen
The Rotary Club of Camrose will be celebrating its 90th year of operation in 2014 by giving away $90,000. “We’re calling for project submissions from local organizations, including those that we currently support, that we can fund with money that is raised from our annual Black Tie Gala in May,” said Rotary community services committee chair Morris Henderson. The final date that submissions will be accepted is Nov. 29. “We will be putting all of them into the mix once we are at the end of the month,” said Henderson. “Our hope is that we see a good cross-section of projects that will benefit the city and the region. If there is one terrific project we might give it $50,000. If there are a bunch of smaller projects we might give them $5,000 each.” Submissions should be no
longer than three pages and contain information about the project, the mission and history of the requesting party, the people who will benefit from the project, the time line and preliminary budget, and sources of funding. The submission should also include the amount of assistance requested and any contact particulars. Requests for assistance with operating costs will not be considered. “We want them to be for projects that are ongoing and something that is tangible within the next year,” said Henderson. Rotary is confident that the 90th anniversary Black Tie Gala will be as successful as the one this past spring which raised between $80,000 and $90,000 for the construction of the Rotary Youth Centre. One of the premiere events of the spring, Rotary’s
Anniversary celebration
The Rotary Club of Camrose will be holding a special anniversary celebration next fall that will include tributes to past members. “We thought of doing it in the spring but we are so busy at that time of the year with the Black Tie event and the Rotary Cares fundraiser that assists things like the Camrose Army and Air Cadets,” said Henderson.

…sadly, because of a desperate need in our community.
3rd ANNUAL Last year you willingly and generously helped us fill (make that overload) a hot tub with non-perishable food items for the Food Bank. You took us up on our challenge of a $500 pledge if we were able to meet the goal of a heaping tub of groceries. This year we aspire to stuff a 7’ x 7’ x 3-1/2’ deep hot tub with a new supply of food for Camrose & District Food Bank. We start today! If we can get the job done on or before December 21, we will make a donation of $500 (along with your donations) to our food bank. It’s our small way of helping make Christmas a brighter and less stressful time of year for others. – Russ and Doneal Greipl

Curling academy offers valuable instruction By Murray Green
A curling school is about to inject enthusiasm for the sport in the area. The Camrose Academy of Curling Society is offering a curling program geared for junior and senior high aged students. However, if university students are willing to learn, they will also be accepted into the program. “The objective of this instructional-based curling league is to give the participants an opportunity to work on technical skills and game play,” said Ken Duggan of the curling academy. “Our goal is to get the sport of curling taught through the school for extra credits in the future. In order to show the Battle River School Division that there is enough interest, we wanted to set up instruction sessions to create excitement for young curlers.” The curling sessions will be held on Monday evenings from 5:00 to 6:30 p.m. beginning on Nov. 25 at the Rose City Curling Club. “To begin with it will be instruction based to give the students the skills to play the game,” said Ken. “It will turn into a league, but there will always be instruction as well.” In the New Year, as skills are gained for playing the game, the sessions will go until about 7:00 p.m. with more ends. Great instructors
“We are arranging for a capable and experienced group of instructors to assist with teaching or enhancing and practicing curling skills for all levels of curlers in this schools-based curling program,” said Ken. “In some instruction, especially the first few sessions, we want to have a coach for every four or five curlers. These individuals have all taken at least the club coaching certification program through the Canadian Curling Association and several are seeking advanced coaching certification.” Instructors include Brenda Bohmer, Canadian Scotties Tournament of Hearts champion and five-time provincial women’s curling champion; Adam Enright, Olympic gold medalist in Vancouver as the fifth for the Kevin Martin team, provincial junior champion and several years on the World Curling Tour; Stephanie Enright, provincial women’s finalist, currently playing on the World Curling Tour and a Camrose-based teacher; Roger Galenza, coach of the Augustana campus university curling teams and head of the Rocks and Rings curling program in Camrose; Darren McDermott, Camrose high school curling coach; Jon Lindstrand, teacher at Charlie Killam Junior High School; Sherry Bratrud, retired teacher and coach on the schools curling program at Bawlf; Curtis Hoveland, retired teacher from Wainwright and organizer on the junior curling program; and 10 curlers on the Augustana university teams.

Watch for Comet ISON Nov. 28
New and Improved! Churchmice Players present…
By Diane McLaren
Everywhere you look for astronomy news, you will
see information about Comet ISON. It was discovered in late 2012 and has the potential to become a brilliantly bright object visible to the naked eye around the time of its perihelion – or closest point to the sun – on November 28. Comet ISON will come within 800,000 miles (1.2 million km) of our sun’s surface on November 28. That’s over 100 times closer to the sun than Earth. This close pass to the sun might cause Comet ISON to break into pieces. If it doesn’t break up, Comet ISON should become very bright due to the incredible heating it will undergo. Some are predicting that ISON will become as bright as a full moon! That would make Comet ISON a daylight object, briefly. Although the comet will be bright, you’ll need to look carefully to see it in the sun’s glare. Of course, it would be much too dangerous for your eyes to risk trying to see the comet through binoculars or a telescope when it is so close to the sun unless you have specially designed solar filters. Looking at the sun through binoculars or a telescope without a solar filter will cause permanent serious damage to your eyes and blindness. To view Comet ISON with your naked eye on November 28, block out the sun with your hand or stand in the shadow of a building so that the sun is behind the building and scan four degrees north of the sun’s surface. If Comet ISON survives its close pass near the sun intact, the comet will be visible both in the evening sky after sunset and in the eastern morning sky before sunrise during December. As ISON’s distance from the sun increases, it’ll grow dimmer. But, for a time, it should be as bright as our sky’s brightest planet, Venus, and it should have a long comet tail. People all over Earth will be able to see it, but it’ll be best seen from the Northern Hemisphere as 2013 draws to a close. Will Comet ISON still be visible to the eye in January 2014? Comets are noto-

New curling academy provides valuable instruction Continued from page 18
“The program will offer 13 weekly sessions starting on Monday, November 25 and will be held every Monday evening up to March 10,” Ken said. “We encourage curlers from outside of Camrose to join us to get more schools on board in curling instruction.” There will be no curling the last two Mondays in December, and on Family Day, Feb. 17. The fee will be $130 for the full program. The curling club will be able to supply sliders and brooms
to those who do not have equipment. The curling academy wants to help develop training modules to be used by school teachers. “Once we have sport demonstrated into schools we want to expand into Augustana for international students to learn,” said Ken. For more information, visit website www.camroseacademyofcurling.ca, or you may contact Sherry Bratrud at s_bratrud@hotmail.com, or phone 780-608-8494. The governing bodies of
curling do not require curlers to wear any safety-related equipment while curling. Although it is not required,
it is recommended that parents or guardians consider having their children wear CSA approved protective hel-
mets while participating in this instructional based curling league. Safety is a prime concern for all instructors.

Local band Walk Slowly helps build a school By Murray Green
After seeing the conditions in which some people live and knowing some African countries have a lack of eduction, Jayden Dyer is determined to take action. Jayden sings and plays guitar with local band Walk Slowly. Drummer Jordan Arbuckle, guitarist Luke Olsen and bassist Curtis Mokry joined Jayden in May. “Initially, Jayden and I started doing some covers on YouTube and then we thought of having an actual band,” explained Luke. “We talked to Jordan to play percussion for us. I knew Curtis, well both Jayden and I, from concert band, so we asked him to play with us as well.” The Camrose Composite High School students play folk, rock and Indie styles of music. The band had a new purpose after Jayden returned from Africa. “I went to Africa through the Free the Children program in August for 21 days and we went to build a school in a really small community. I wasn’t expecting much when I was going and thought it wouldn’t be too much different from here,” she said. “Their old classrooms were at the bottom of the hill and sat in water for half of the year. The teachers had about 50 students in the classroom and most of them were squished into a desk. They have notebooks that they use every single year. At the end of the year they erase them so they can use them again next year.” Jayden said the experience really opened her eyes about how education is delivered in other countries. “We take so much for granted. They see it as an immense privilege just to get into a classroom. We have the power to change it. We just have to work a little harder than we normally would.” The organization that sent Jayden to Kenya has a program called Brick by Brick. “Every $20 buys a brick,

so the ultimate goal is to raise $10,000, which will build a whole school and $25,000 adopts a whole village,” said the 17-year-old. “That’s my long term goal. Right now I just want to build a classroom after going there and seeing how much one classroom can help a whole community.” Jayden always wanted to go on a mission but was too young. “For most missions, you have to be 18 and over because they can be more dangerous then parents would like it to,” said Jayden. “This program was founded by a 12-year-old, so youth can help make a difference. Trips are planned all year round and they have permanent camps set up. The goal is to create a sustainable community, not just go in and help for a year and then leave.” Instead of just giving them water, the group shows them how to find it and keep
the system running, so they will have water in the future. “They teach them agricultural practices that needs little water. They have alternative income projects to go with farming to sustain the project, which is really cool,” added Jayden. “That’s what got me going on the project – that we can make a difference.” Jayden thought about how to connect the school to Camrose. “I’m passionate about helping people and music, so I wanted to connect both of my passions together,” she added. Walk Slowly decided to hold a benefit concert at the Elks Hall last spring to raise funds. “I know people who went to Africa and saw how things are too,” said Luke. “I haven’t seen it personally, but I can sympathize with her wanting to help. If I can help to make a difference in people’s lives, then I’m all for it. Our band is not for making a
profit, but to make a difference. That gives me personal satisfaction.” Jordan echoed Luke’s comments. “Jayden’s story is worth telling people about. We want to get people to help out. Most people look at it as, we are across the world, what can we do about it,” said Jordan. “But, we played one show and made money. It shows even though we are from the other side of the world, we can do something about it.” The show brought in $1,352. “We weren’t expecting that at all. I thought maybe 30 people would show up,” Jordan said. “It ended up between 100 and 120 people. Some people who weren’t even there were talking about it.” The amount of people willing to throw their support behind the project left the band in awe. “As a musician, it was good to see so many people
enjoying the music. When they hear us then the word gets around and maybe the next show can raise twice as much,” said Luke. “It’s just awesome.” Another concert is in the plans. “My mom is looking into booking the Bailey Theatre,” said Jayden. “We would also like a concert in the school.” The band also sold bracelets to raise funds for the cause. “I’ve performed with AboutTime Productions on the Bailey stage and it has beautiful acoustics and the sound is incredible. It will be exciting for sure,” said Luke. Music can change the way people think. “Through music you can change the way people view things. Music can make powerful statements,” said Jordan. “Music can create a passion about something and that is what we want to do,” said Jayden.
Love’s Labour Lost not lost on Camrose audiences By Dave McDougall Love’s Labour’s Lost By William Shakespeare Performed by Augustana Drama, University of Alberta
The labours of the Augustana drama troupe were not lost in a delightful performance of William Shakespeare’s Love’s Labour’s Lost. Cast members found their way through what can be a daunting challenge in their performance of the classic piece. Much credit must be given to director Kevin Sutley for laying the ground work for a very successful evening of theatre. The vision and execution of the stage work is evident and the players
warmed to their roles as the performance progressed. The play started a little slow and one wondered if the players were being bogged down by the weighty, Shakespearean language, or if the nerves were a little high. But some wonderful performances helped raise the first half to acceptable levels. In particular, Phil Hackborn and Richard Boness struck some very nice moments. The women had a nice collaborative feel for the play also. It was the second half that really brought the play together, especially the staging of the classic Shakespearean device of “the play
within the play.” It roared to a rousing end and had the well deserved applause given by the opening night audience. One can only suspect that as the young actors progress through this run and play the play, it will find pacing and energy throughout the entire performance. The cast had some truly excellent performances that included the aforementioned Hackborn and Boness. Both of these actors had articulate and expressive ways with Shakespeare’s poetry and never seemed to be grinding through the text as many young actors are wont to do with the bard. In fact, most of the cast deliv-
ered lines smoothly and with meaning. Other very capable performances were given by Vincent Major, Nathan Plumite, Dan Shepherd, and Ari Evans. The women of the cast were very solid and played the mocking, teasing roles very satisfactorily. Amy Wright, Ally Larson and Maddy Goodman were especially strong. Rhianne Lessard must be commended for lending a sensual performance in a play about love. The set was expertly painted by professionals and costumes were a collaboration of cast members’ contributions. It seemed as
both elements of the play were a little dark but they were not a major drawback. Sound and music was excellent but the play maybe could have used some of the rollicking upbeat music featured before and during the intermission as the selections lent more energy to the performance. But these are quibbling details to an otherwise very enjoyable evening of theatre. Camrose audiences are rarely given Shakespeare and should take full advantage of this lovely offering from Augustana Drama. The play runs November 21-23 at the Augustana Theatre Centre. Shows begin at 7:30 p.m.

Zetsen Master Builders Charity Home Build raises $101,754 for BRCF endowments
A personal message of
7KDQNV
By Dan Jensen
Garry Zetsen Kevin LIndholm,
from Garry Zetsen and Kevin Lindholm, Zetsen Master Builders Over the past few months seventy companies joined together as a powerful team with one common goal â&#x20AC;&#x201C; to build a beautiful home in this community which, upon the sale, would provide a constant stream of future funding for local charities. (A full page ad next to this message provides additional information). The finished product was a wonderful testament to todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s remarkable building products. It became a true showcase representing the tremendous skill of those involved in the construction of every Zetsen Master Builders home. What you as a consumer or resident didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t see, though, was what was happening behind the scenes through every stage of this sensational, charitable endeavour. When the Battle River Community Foundation approached us to build our fourth fund-raising home in the past six years we wondered if we dare go back to our suppliers and building associates to ask for their assistance yet again. Our correspondence â&#x20AC;&#x153;softlyâ&#x20AC;? invited our contacts to take part. At no point did we provide a suggestion they MUST participate in this local project! The response was instant. It was overwhelming. Local companies, big and small, jumped on board offering us deeply discounted supplies and labour. Out of town, and get this â&#x20AC;&#x201C; out of province, suppliers responded promptly asking us how they could help and what type of products could we use for the home we were building. With our three decades of experience in the trade we know the value of goods and labour costs. The deals extended to us were, quite frankly, too good to be true. It was a heartwarming moment for us. And, a fine moment for the community, too! Underway was a home that was going to make all involved very proud. Underway was a home that was going to be extremely rewarding for Battle River Community Foundation. Watching it go up, with so much love, community spirit, and sense of care beyond profit or self was emotionally moving. This project and other charity homes weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve built previously â&#x20AC;&#x201C; ($37,000 raised for Bethany Group, $75,000 for CT Scanner for St. Maryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hospital Foundation, and $90,000 for building addition and renovation for Centra Cam) have each been highly successful projects), This one, however, at $101,700 raised for Battle River Community Foundation is a bit beyond belief. This project reminds us that we live in a wonderful and caring community. It reminds us how fortunate we are to work with such great staff and great businesses and individuals. It reminds us that goals can be met and even exceeded.

Shocked, astounded, impressed and pleased were the words Garry Zetsen used to describe the 2013 Charity Home build that raised $101,758.44 for the establishment of endowments with Battle River Community Foundation in support of Reading University, Camrose Minor Sports and Learning Together. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is more than I thought we would be able to do,â&#x20AC;? said the Zetsen Master Builders owner after presenting a cheque to the Battle River Community Foundation board November 14. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was hoping to match or exceed the $90,000 we raised in the last time we did this for Centra Cam but that was a goal. I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think we could but I wanted to aim for that.â&#x20AC;? Battle River Community Foundation board chair Blain Fowler said he was overwhelmed with the way the people of this community open their hearts and wallets for worthy causes. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Garry Zetsen and Kevin Lindholm have done an amazing job of enlisting the trades people, suppliers of building materials and even the land developer and realtors to raise over $100,000. The endowments that have been created will benefit the youth of our community forever.â&#x20AC;? Zetsen Master Builders started work on the 2,186 square foot two-storey Creekview subdivision home last June. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was a team effort that involved not just the people within our immediate organization but also our contractors and suppliers,â&#x20AC;? said Zetsen. â&#x20AC;&#x153;One of the unexpected benefits was the way it brought everyone together.â&#x20AC;? Zetsen was pleasantly surprised with how easy it was to set up the endowments with Battle River Community Foundation and how willing Foundation members were able to work with what he wanted to accomplish. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We chose all three of the programs (Reading University, Camrose Minor Sports and Learning Together because they are youth oriented,â&#x20AC;? said Zetsen. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our wish was to set up endowments for them that would always be there.â&#x20AC;? Zetsen Master Builders plans to undertake another Charity Home project in about two and a half years. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is a big project and there is a lot of work that has to be done in terms of approaching people to participate so it is not something that can be done annually or even bi-annually,â&#x20AC;? said Zetsen. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It really does need the three-year window for everybody to recoup, refresh, reload and do it over. I would rather do this once every three years and do it right than do it every year and have small participation. This way we get a big bang once every three years rather than a small bang once every year.â&#x20AC;? Fowler expressed appreciation on behalf of the BRCF board to everyone who participated in the project for all the good they have done.
Zetsen Master Builders presented a cheque for $101,758.44 (proceeds from the sale of the newly-built charity home) to the Battle River Community Foundation November 14 to establish endowment funds for Reading University, Camrose Minor Sports Association and Learning Together.

Kodiaks pull off huge trade, back on track By Murray Green The little engine that could is back on track. The Camrose Kodiaks train was riding the rails with two straight victories Nov. 8 and 9. Camrose defeated Okotoks 2-1 in overtime and edged the Calgary Canucks 6-4. Conductor (coach and general manager) Boris Rybalka didn’t exactly want to pull the trigger on a blockbuster trade, but the Okotoks Oilers forced his hand by dangling the three players he wanted to increase his posse. The Kodiaks moved forward Scott Feser and defenceman Josh Smith to Oilers. In return, the Kodiaks received marksmen Spencer Kryczka, speedy Braeden Salverda and defensive stalwart Stefan Danielson. “I was a little shocked, especially considering Okotoks and Camrose are rivals,” said forward Spencer Kryczka. “I didn’t think it would be such a big trade. I was pretty happy because if you could go anywhere, Camrose is the place to go. All in all, I was happy to come to this organization.” Spencer admitted it wasn’t hard to play against Camrose. “We always got up for those games and hated Camrose (with respect) and I’m sure it was the same in the Kodiaks’ dressing room. There is a pretty good rivalry. Camrose was wellrespected because we always knew they came to play. So far, the Camrose organization seems more professional. They are a great group of guys in the dressing room. They joke around and have a good time. Everyone gets along well and it is a pretty tight-knit group. It’s good to jump in and already feel part of the team.” The players didn’t have a lot of time to adjust. They slipped on the new jersey’s and faced each other at the EnCana Arena. “I think we (Kodiaks) dominated the play and we have some quick forwards,” said Spencer. “I am going to play the same way I always have. Coach (Boris) put me with (Tanner) MacMaster and (Connor) Mailey and that was exciting.” Feser helped set up the Okotoks goal in the first period near the mid-way mark to give the Oilers instant dividends on the trade. But, the Kodiaks will be the winners in the long run, just like they were in the game. Defenceman Luc Lemire notched a power play marker in the second with help from Nelson Gadoury. After a scoreless third frame, Gadoury set up Connor Mailey for the winner a minute into the extra period. Goalie Devin McDonald held the fort by stopping 29 of the 30 shots he faced.
Okotoks netminder Jared D’Amico was used as target practice and was bombarded with 48 shots. Spencer will be leaving for a trip to the United States shortly. “I’m going to Princeton to check out the school. After the showcase they were in touch with me and have shown the most interest in me,” he said. “They want to get me down there for a couple days, watch some games and see the campus.” The trade has been viewed as a good deal for both teams. “It’s not that we had to trade because we felt that we had the talent here. They wanted Josh Smith and we said this is what we wanted in return. We named the three players and all three are 18 years old,” said coach Boris. “It is a win-win situation because they got the two players they wanted and we picked our three. It was a strange trade because everyone got exactly what they wanted.” Both forwards will add offence to the Kodiaks’ lineup and Stefan is expected to expand his role. “This gives us a strong centre in Spencer, fans were blown away with Braeden’s speed and we received a shut down defenceman with Stefan,” said Rybalka. “We believe Stefan can play on the power play and give us more offence as well.” If defence wins championships, then the Kodiaks gained three valuable components to a better hockey club. “Stefan is such a quiet defensive player, you don’t realize as first just how good he is offensively,” said Rybalka. “He gives good outlook passes, sees the ice really well and finds the open seams.” The additional body gives the Kodiaks more depth. “You need more depth in the playoffs,” said Rybalka. “It also gives us an option if we want to make another deal before we finalize our roster. It gives us an option of pulling off a two for one deal in the future.” Camrose lulled the Canucks in the scoreless opening period. However, when Calgary scored first in the second, it was the Kodiaks that woke up with a bang. Mailey, Quinn Brown, Brett Njaa, Luc Vandale and Ryker Leer all responded with tallies in the middle frame for Camrose. The Canucks re-grouped in the third and pulled within one goal before Vandale netted his second to end the game. Matt Zentner turned away 20 of the 24 shots directed his way. Continued on page 33
Thomas “Tom” Albert James Williams June 27, 1926 – November 11, 2013
Rose Lofgren Rose was born on May 27, 1919 to George and Paula Peck in Taber, AB and was one of four children. She passed away peacefully in her sleep at home on October 30, 2013 at the age of 94 years. While teaching at the Nashville School in Gwynne, AB, she met Freeman Lofgren. Freeman and Rose were married in July 1942 in Vancouver, BC. Rose’s lifelong career was spent as a school teacher. She taught school in Alberta at North Star, Nampa and Verdun. She also taught school in Nelson, BC at the Sproule Creek Doukhobor School. Rose then lived in Bittern Lake, Sylvan Lake, Duhamel and moved to Camrose in 1954. Freeman and Rose moved to their present home at Barlee Junction in 1972. She spent the majority of her career teaching Grade 4 at Sparling School, retiring in 1979. Rose leaves behind to cherish her memory her loving husband of 71 years, Freeman; her son Padget; her son Doug and daughter-in-law Betty; and many former students. She was predeceased by her sister Pauline Woof of Ohaton, AB. A memorial service was held on Saturday, November 2, 2013. Memorial donations may be made to the Heart and Stroke Foundation.
Tom was born to Sidney and Florence Williams in Camrose, Alberta on June 27, 1926. He passed away peacefully at St. Mary’s Hospital in Camrose on November 11, 2013 at the age of 87 years. He very happily grew up in Camrose playing hockey, curling and enjoying many escapades with his numerous friends over the years. He had known Edith most of his life as they had lived across Mirror Lake from one another. They started dating in 1949 and were married January 29, 1955. They continued to live in Camrose where, over the years, they raised their three children, numerous dogs and one cat. In 1968, they built their summer cottage up at Marie Lake and many fun times were enjoyed there over the last 46 summers with family and friends. Tom retired from his job with Esso Resources in 1981 at the age of 55 and was very lucky to be able to enjoy 32 more years of hunting, fishing, trapping, summers at Marie Lake, winters in Arizona, morning coffee with “the Gang” and plenty of time with family and friends and lots of visiting. He was an avid member of both the Kinsmen and K-40 Clubs and enjoyed many years of great times with his friends. He really enjoyed people, he was a loyal friend and he was always up for someone stopping in for tea and a visit. Left to cherish his memory are his three children Charles (Susan) Williams of Calgary; Eva (Brian) Golka of Hardisty; Kristie (Donald) Reikie of Calgary; his seven grandchildren Byron and Elaine Williams, Kristie (Joe) Foster, Anne (Travis) Veale, Jocelyn, Barbara and Patricia Reikie; his three great-grandchildren Jack and Grace Foster and Sam Veale; as well as many relatives and friends. Tom was predeceased by his loving wife Edith in 2012; his parents; and his brother Bob Williams. A funeral service was held on Monday, November 18, 2013 at 2:00 p.m. from Burgar Memorial Chapel with Mary Ann Pastuck officiating. Interment has taken place in Valleyview Cemetery, Camrose. Memorial contributions are gratefully accepted to the charity of one’s choice. To send condolences, please visit www.burgarfuneralhome.com.

Bernice Myrtle (nee Lomas) Driedger
Lyle Edward Holm
Bernice Myrtle Lomas was born to Charlie and Myrtle Lomas on July 18, 1929. The family lived on a farm south of Bittern Lake. As the oldest child of four, Bernice was given the responsibility to care for her siblings and her grandmother. When Bernice completed Grade 8 at the country school, she boarded with people in Camrose so she could graduate from high school. Following graduation, Bernice chose to train as a nurse at the Misericodia Hospital in Edmonton. During this period of her life, Bernice chose to increase her understanding of faith by attending the Anglican Women’s College in Toronto. On October 18, 1958, Bernice married Clifford Harvey Driedger in the Anglican church in Camrose. Bernice enjoyed being Mrs. Cliff Driedger and supported his career with warm hospitality. Traveling salesmen often were seated at the family table since she preferred to set another plate at the table than to be missing Dad’s presence with us. Children were added to the family in quick succession. In providing care for them, Bernice cooked, cleaned, gardened and sewed. Never once did she long to go back to her career, but she always stated her profession as a homemaker rather than a house-wife. She wasn’t married to the house! She was at home after school every day and often timed cinnamon buns to come out of the oven as the children walked through the door. Bernice raised six independent children of whom she was proud! She would have liked a dozen! ...which eventually she had when all were married. In the pursuit of wholeness at midlife, Bernice returned to the relationship with Christ established in her youth. There she found strength in prayer and the truths of scripture. She hosted Bible studies, was involved in Aglow and was a part of the auxiliary of the Gideons. She cultivated habits of gratitude and blessing others. She welcomed the birth of each grandchild … the obstetric nurse came out in her! Over the last 15 years, Alzheimer’s shrunk Bernice’s world, but her admiration for the beauty of nature and gratitude for simple things never waned. Bernice Myrtle Driedger died on November 9, 2013. It was a release from the limitations of physical life. She believed that to be absent from this body is to be present with the Lord. Scripture indicates that this temporal body is replaced by an immortal one that is incorruptible. Bernice was predeceased by an infant son, her sister Eleanor, and both parents. The loss of her presence on earth will be felt by many – her husband of 55 years Cliff; sisters Verna Lindholm, Pat and Ken Broadfoot; her children, their spouses and grandchildren – Donna and Harry Arnesen (Karina and Hanna), Mavis and Norman Mulder (Ami and Meghan), Dean and Dena Driedger (Devon, Paige and Dane), Don and Sharlene Driedger (Tracey and Erika), Eleanor and Weston Voytechek (Joe-anna and Gary Morris, Micheyl, Brendyn, Wanita, Malinka and Shavonne), and Cheryl and Rod Barks (Brett, Britney, Tiara and Mikayla) and other friends and family. Memorial donations may be made to Camrose Community Church, the Gideons or a charity of one’s choice.
June 23, 1938 – November 8, 2013 Lyle Holm of Camrose passed away on Friday, November 8, 2013 at the age of 75 years. Lyle Holm was born in Camrose on June 23, 1938 to Leroy and Lillian Holm (nee Sjolie). When he was ten years old, Lillian passed away, leaving Lyle to spend his formative years in the loving care of his maternal grandparents Oscar and Olga Sjolie of Camrose. After completion of high school in Camrose, Lyle spent several enjoyable years driving trucks. He drove for Camrose Transfer, Highway 13 Transport and the City of Camrose, proudly receiving an award for one million miles of safe driving. Joining the Camrose Volunteer Firefighters started a new career for Lyle. After completing several courses in Vermillion and Edmonton, he became the first full-time Fire Prevention Officer and Director of Emergency Measures for the City of Camrose. He subsequently joined the Alberta Government as an Advisor of Fire Services, which included instructing classes at Alberta Fire Training School in Vermillion, as well as inspecting Fire Departments in southern Alberta. Lyle completed his career at head office in Edmonton, retired and returned to Camrose. Lyle had a great zest for life. He loved music and was an accomplished harmonica player and liked to think he could play the drums and a little piano. Many great times and friendships were made at hose coupling events throughout the province. He loved spending time with people, assisting at Cubs and Scouts, refereeing hockey, playing broomball, being a Camrose rink rat and painting landscapes. He hunted, fished and golfed with his sons and father-in-law Gordon Mayhew. We have many memories of the laughter Lyle generated at parties and around the campfire. Left to cherish his memory are his wife Eleanor; sons Mark (Pat Tucker) Holm of Boyle, Robert (Lori) Holm of St. Albert, Dan (Brenda) Holm of Camrose; six grandchildren Stephen, Dylan, Liam, Jacinda, Joelle and Casara; as well as several brothers-in-law and sisters-in-law, nieces and nephews. Lyle was predeceased by his parents; an infant brother Robert; mother-in-law Anna Mayhew; and brother-in-law Ken Hanak. A funeral service was held on Thursday, November 14, 2013 at 1:00 p.m. from Burgar Memorial Chapel with Rev. Larry Pederson officiating. Inurnment has taken place in Valleyview Cemetery, Camrose. Memorial contributions are gratefully accepted to Camrose Food Bank. To send condolences, please visit www.burgarfuneralhome.com.

Matt McLeod By Dan Jensen
The all-new Transit Connect is a multi-purpose vehicle that has everything you need to let you accomplish your goals. Named International Van of the Year for 2014, Transit Connect has been a smart choice for small business owners since it was launched in North America in 2009. The compact van earned the 2010 North American Truck of the Year title, adding to its global reputation for durability and toughness that dates back to its launch in Europe in 2003. "The all-new Transit Connect is purpose-built to meet the needs of an even broader range of customers," said Lamb Ford Sales sales manager Brett Read. "Both van and wagon models offer a host of choices that are tailored for a variety of uses. Whether it is for personal use or for business, the Transit Connect is ready for anything." Transit Connect Wagon Transit Connect wagon brings exceptional flexibility to the multipurpose vehicle market. With a wide variety of convenient and premium options, it appeals to a wide range of buyers. From taxis and shuttles to
personal use transportation, the Transit Connect Wagon is the ideal vehicle to move people and their belongings comfortably. Transit Connect Van Transit Connect van is the ideal solution for people who need a flat load floor to transport tools, supplies, cargo or bulky items. Plumbers, electricians and professional tradespeople of all kinds will appreciate the large cargo capacity, low load floor height and convenient amenities designed to make their jobs easier. Engine choices The 2014 Ford Transit Connect is equipped with a standard 2.5-liter 4-cylinder engine. Optional is a directinjection, turbocharged, 1.6-liter 4-cylinder EcoBoost
engine, which combines two different technologies – turbocharging and direct injection – to optimize power, torque and efficiency. The engines are matched to a six-speed SelectShift automatic transmission. Flexible Transit Connect is adept at being flexible on the go with seats that easily flip and fold to accommodate any combination of people and cargo you need. Available storage compartments located above the middle and rear seats offer plenty of convenient space for personal items. The choice of rear liftgate or side-hinged twinsymmetrical cargo doors makes for easy loading of groceries or cargo.
Keeping you safe An electronic stability control system that helps the driver maintain vehicle control in adverse driving situations or when making evasive maneuvers on slippery pavement. The safety canopy system provides side-curtain airbags with roll-fold technology for all outboard passengers, and a rollover sensor, along with six standard airbags. Available MyKey owner controls let you assign separate keys for additional drivers, all coded to enforce your specific driving restrictions. You can limit vehicle functions, including top speed and audio volume, and add warning alerts at preselected speeds. When activated, MyKey also encourages smart driving behavior by muting audio until safety belts are buckled, chiming earlier than non-MyKey systems for low-fuel warnings, and prohibiting the shutoff of key features such as AdvanceTrac Stability Control. When activated, available rain-sensing wipers use an advanced optical sensor to detect the intensity of rain and/or snowfall to adjust wiper speed. They automatically go on when moisture is sensed.
Convenience A 4.2-inch LCD multifunction display keeps the driver informed of vehicle functions. The entertainment system with CD player can be equipped with SYNC® and MyFord Touch,®* and accessed via remote controls on the available leather-wrapped steering wheel with four-way adjustments. A rear view camera helps when you are backing out of parking spaces where the visibility is limited. The available panoramic roof acts as a skylight. So whether you're sitting up front or seated in back, lots of natu ra l light comes in from above. Included are roof rails and a power shade that helps reduce inter ior heat buildup on hot, sunny days. When activated, available rain-sensing wipers use an advanced optical sensor to detect the intensity of rain and/or snowfall to adjust wiper speed. They automatically go on when moisture is sensed. You can see the 2014 Ford Transit Connect at Lamb Ford Sales, 3771-48 Avenue, Camrose. Phone 780-672-2411 and ask for one of the friendly sales professionals.

Kodiaks back on the winning track Continued from page 30
Camrose played a strong game against the Olds Grizzlys, but only gained one point when the rival bears won 2-1 in overtime, Nov. 5.
The Grizzlys scored on a penalty shot in the second period, but Camrose netted a power play marker three minutes later to even the contest. A scoreless third
frame led to an overtime period. McDonald stopped 30 of 32 shots in the Camrose net, while the Kodiaks fired 37 at the Olds’ cage.

As teachers and students did their training, some definite personalities were evident. Rosie, a friendly dog, showed a true agility of both body and spirit as her skillful owner Nancy kept her under control. Gypsy, a poodle mix, showed her elegant speed and her high spirits as she stood waist-high on her owner Debra. Vinny, an energetic Jack Russell, eagerly explored everything and everyone, while still happily completing the course. These dogs, a small sampling of the show to come, all demonstrated time and again why they deserve the title of friend and family member. After teaching these classes for so long, Doris has decided that she wants to bring her students out to the public, in a very beneficial way. On November 23, come out to the red barn on the west end of the CRE parking lot, where from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. the inaugural Doggy Fun Day will take place.

Even man’s (or woman’s) best friend needs to get out every now and then, whether it be for your typical walk, a run through a field, or agility and obedience classes. Agility classes teach obedience, give exercise and allow our canine companions to socialize together, much like the schools our children attend. Doris and Bob Cole have been teaching agility classes for years: in Camrose for four of them and previously in Leduc and Wetaskiwin. Their calm demeanor and casual manner with dog and owner alike bespeak extensive experience and a true love of what they do.

Remember those who served By Murray Green
The Remembrance Day service at the Camrose Regional Exhibition on Nov. 11 was a time to reflect. Two minutes of silence were observed to remember those who fell in battle, the veterans of wars and peacekeeping missions, and all those who serve in defence of our freedom. Crowfoot MP Kevin Sorenson talked about sacrifices Canada made. “Every year at this time we come together as a nation to honour and reflect on the great sacrifice and bravery from our war veterans and servicing military,” he said. “Our government and our country stand brave and free today because of the sacrifices made by people who believed that freedom is for all people.” MP Sorenson said we owe a great debt to those who served for Canada. “It is a debt that we will never fully repay. We remember those who were called to battle, in peacekeeping missions and in emergency preparedness response here at home. These people have helped give us peace and prosperity in our country.” Our MP travelled to France and Belgium to take part in the anniversary celebrations of the First World War armistice. “I was privileged and humbled to give the address and lay a wreath at the Vimy Ridge Memorial and later at Menin Gate where 3,000 people lined up on each side of the gate,” said Sorenson. “Between the crowds a French marching band marched to an applause. From the other direction a Belgium band came to an applause. Then as the Canadian marching band came, the crowd erupted in applause. I realized how much Canada was respected and loved around the world.” Later, MP Sorenson was called to visit Afghanistan. “I had never been to a country at war before. When I was greeted by Canadians, I appreciated the freedoms we enjoy at home. In 40 degree weather our soldiers were loaded with 70 to 80 pounds of supplies and weapons, and marched for freedom for the world. They don’t treat each day as it might be their last, but as I was told by one of the Canadian troops, they treat each step as it might be their last.” Continued on page 40

There’s only one way to do a job Max Faubert is the new automotive manager at Canadian Tire in Camrose. A self-described gearhead, “I’ve been building choppers and hot rods my whole life,” Max takes a simple approach to the jobs that come into the shop: Do the work the right way and don’t cut corners. Since he started several weeks ago, he has worked with his team to streamline operations, getting vehicles in and out of the shop more quickly and efficiently. He encourages a team approach, talking with his co-workers about the best way to tackle a job or a challenge. They have the very latest in diagnostic equipment for any type of vehicle. And they are expanding – a new journeyman automotive technician starts on the job this week to complement Darren Gagnon who’s been servicing customers’ vehicles here for 18 years. Max is no-nonsense about the responsibilities his department has to the customer. He’s building a solid team approach, a way of conducting business that always puts doing the right thing at the top of the list. With his lifetime of experience in autobody work (formerly with Camrose Truck Locators), building and designing hot rods and choppers, and his network of contacts in the automotive industry, Max brings the knowledge and experience you want in your automotive service shop. The next time you need repairs or maintenance, call 780.672.1400 and see for yourself why business is growing at Canadian Tire.

MP Sorenson also mentioned the anniversary of the Korean War and other upcoming anniversaries. He reflected on Canada back in 1914. “Canada was just a young nation of seven million people. Many of those were immigrants from Europe and the United States. And yet 628,736 young men served. Almost 10 per cent, 66,573 died in the First World War, 138,166 were wounded, 2,813 were prisoners of war and 175 merchant seamen died in action. Then we had peace for a short time. By the Second World War, Canada had grown to 11 million people. Then 1,031,902 men took up the call and served. But that’s not all, 49,963 Canadian women served. Today we reflect on history. But, you can’t think of our history without realizing the sacrifices these people made.” The guest speaker appealed to the youth to keep the memories alive. “You are the key to honouring our veterans. Our veterans have helped build Canada that we know and love. Now our young people can bring generations together to help us remember. We honour those who didn’t return and those who did, but were changed. We honour their families. Freedom is not just for a few, but for all. Today, we honour those who continue to serve.” Cpl. Evan Barten of the Lord Stathcona’s Horse (Royal Canadians) shared information on today’s conflicts. “Our office helped train the Afghanistan national army, national police and their communities. They do this job without thanks, or recognition,” said Cpl. Barten. “Remembrance Day means it is important to remember the fallen, the long and lonely nights and the families left behind to do what they think is right. There sweat gives us freedom. There tears allow us to serve with optimism every day. That is why I believe it is extremely important to always remember our veterans and soldiers not only on this special day, but every day.”

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.

Former Camrose resident releases The Painter’s Hand By Dan Jensen
Edmonton musical and theatrical scene mainstay Kieran Martin Murphy is releasing his own solo CD, “The Painter’s Hand.” Murphy called Camrose home for seven years when he went to Augustana University College and performed in the community at
Jaywalker’s Jamboree and countless singing engagements. “The Painter’s Hand” is a journey through one man’s life and the bonds and relationships he has made. It begins with a look into small town life in Alberta with Westlock Summer, a celebration of childhood and friends.
Painter’s Hand is a tribute to the love of a mother who helped steer his path and character. Love At a Glance, You & Me and Mi Amado are three songs that take listeners from young infatuation into marriage then respect and adoration. I’ll Remember You delves into dealing with a parent stricken with
dementia. Long Way Home and The Storm deal with divorce and how darkness takes hold as the man is lost and uncertain of finding hope. The album takes flight with Out of the Blue and Music where there is rediscovery and new found joy. The CD is rounded out with Lurid Acres, a fun party
tune about celebrating with friends and letting loose from time to time. Murphy will be performing a concert of his CD on Monday, December 9 at 7:30 p.m. at the Arden Theatre in St. Albert with some of Edmonton’s premier musicians. CD’s will be available for purchase at the show.

Caring for your diabetes session Submitted by Colleen Lindholm, Camrose
Primary Care Network If you are living with diabetes, mark your calendar for Nov. 26. In recognition of November as Diabetes Awareness Month, the Camrose Primary Care Network (PCN) is offering a free Caring for your Diabetes session to provide information and guidance to people living with diabetes. Everyone is welcome, even if you have not had a prior referral to the Camrose PCN. People who have been diagnosed with diabetes often take insulin as an important part of their care plan. While taking insulin
may be hard to understand, PCN pharmacist, Phamie Gotaas will provide useful information to help you understand how proper insulin injection technique can reduce pain of an injection and improve sugar control. If you are not yet on insulin and wish to gain a better understanding of what it is all about, you can also come out for this interactive learning experience. Patients can have a hands-on experience and can touch and feel the insulin injection pens at this seminar. Another common complication of diabetes can include foot problems. If these are not looked after
or prevented they can lead to serious complications such as ulcers, which heal poorly, or amputations. Registered nurse Michelle Bowman will be providing information about how diabetes affects your feet, how to prevent and manage diabetic foot complications, and what you can do to keep your feet healthy. Two sessions will be available on Nov. 26. There will be a morning session from 9:30 to 11 a.m. as well an evening session from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. While the sessions are free, the PCN would like people to register in advance. You can do so by calling 780-608-4927 or emailing info@camrosepcn.

Wild Rose Co-op purchases site Wild Rose Co-op will be expanding its agricultural offering following the transfer in ownership of a former Viterra Inc. agri-products location from Federated Cooperatives Limited (FCL). Wild Rose Co-op has taken over ownership and operation of the former Viterra site at the Viking that offers dry fertilizer, chemical, NH3, seed, and other ag services. “This purchase allows us to expand our product and service offerings,” said Carol Rollheiser, general manager of Wild Rose Co-op.
“We look forward to working with former Viterra customers to supply all their crop input needs while showing them the benefits of dealing with and being a member of our Co-op.” Former Viterra customers will be contacted about the changes and informed about the benefits of buying their products from Co-op. They will be welcomed and encouraged to take out a Co-op membership, which gives them access to quality products and service at fair prices, an equity account and the opportunity for cash
back on their overall purchases. As part of the transaction, three former Viterra employees will be joining the Co-op ag Team. FCL announced the purchase of a number of ag centres from Viterra in August and, concurrent with the closing of that transaction, has transferred these ag centres over to local Co-ops. Retail Co-ops now operate more than 155 ag centres in Western Canada as a result of this transaction.
