The Camrose Railway Museum and Park is a wonderful tourist destination for people of all ages. With each passing year, an increasing number of visitors from beyond the local trading area are enjoying this walk into times gone by. The wonderful station gardens and vintage railway industry memorabilia are of great appeal to the older generation. Kids are drawn like a magnet to the Children’s Secret Garden which features a sandbox, large wooden play-train and dress up clothes. The Morgan Memorial Station Garden is popular with every age group but new additions this year, James and Percy, friends of Thomas the Tank Engine which pulled into the station last year, plus the Troublesome Trucks, are creating a real buzz amongst young train buffs. On special occasions and select days, Thomas and his friends will be seen rounding the 250 feet of G scale track at the Railway Museum. The Camrose Railway Museum and Park, plus the White Elephant Gift Shop, is open for the season each Tuesday to Saturday, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. The Station Café, an eatery definitely not to be missed, is open Saturdays for the season from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Turn off the taps! That's something farmers in Camrose and area are saying these days after a series of heavy rains that have delayed the growth of crops in their fields. Wildrose Agricultural Producers president Humphrey Banack, who farms near Round Hill, estimated last week that crops surrounding Camrose are probably ten days to two weeks behind where they normally are at this stage of the summer. "The crop is definitely late," he said. "We're going to need some hot weather to speed up the maturity." Along with slowing growth, the wet conditions are posing problems for farmers when it comes to the application of fungicides. "We're really trying to get out and put on fungicides, because in a wet year like this you can have more trouble than ever with your plant diseases," said Banack. "It's going to be a real challenge to get that put on." All things considered, Banack said the majority of crops in the area look very good. "Most of them are in the good range. The Agriculture Financial Services Corporation's June 30 crop report noted there are very few areas in the province that are reporting excess moisture." Only time will tell how much crops were damaged by the heavy rains and the hail that fell July 13. "Sometimes you have to wait a week to ten days so see what the damage really is," said Banack. "Camrose got some fairly substantial hail, but in Round Hill we just got some heavy rains. It seemed there was a lot more rain and hail in certain areas than others." Statistics Canada reports that seventy per cent of the fields in Camrose County are seeded to wheat and canola (thirty-five per cent each) and that the remaining 30 per cent is seeded to barley and peas. Hay behind

The wet conditions have also had a negative impact on the hay crops. "The hay crops have virtually been devastated by this much water," said Banack. "The farmers just aren't getting the hay harvested. Coming home from the airport this morning I saw a good number of (hay) crops cut that are going to be virtually ruined after this rain. The farmers are in harvest mode now but this weather is not harvest weather. If they can get this hay crop off and finished they might be able to get a second cut."

The story bags are distributed at prenatal classes, the Public Health Well-Baby Clinic, or at the first home visit by the Public Health Nurse. "The funding for the programs is discretionary, and they rely on community support," said Ford. "Camrose Adult Learning Council has managed to continue the programs but at a very low level." Ford sees a lot of similarities between literacy and cycling. "Literacy is a fundamental life skill which enables us to fully participate in our community, just as cycling allows us to transport ourselves to places that may otherwise be inaccessible to us," he said. "Telling stories, hearing stories and reading stories is the basis of understanding our place in the world and is the foundation of adult literacy skills." Donations to Biking for Books may be made by contacting Ford at 780-672-2383, or dropping a cheque at the Camrose Adult Learning Council office at 4872-50 Street, Camrose. Cheques or money orders should be made payable to Literacy Alberta, which will provide a charitable tax receipt.

City council supports Habitat for Humanity Camrose By Dan Jensen

A 2012 to 2016 strategic plan by Habitat for Humanity Canada that would eliminate small stand alone affiliates is not sitting well with either Habitat for Humanity Camrose or Camrose City council. "We feel a little bit let down by the nature of what is proposed by Habitat Canada," said Habitat for Humanity Camrose president Erhard Pinno in presenting details of the plan to City council July 11. "The document clearly indicates that stand alone affiliates do not have a future in Habitat Canada." Habitat for Humanity Camrose executive director Cody McCarroll said Habitat for Humanity Canada's goal as part of the strategic plan is to build as many homes between 2012 and 2016 as it has since its founding. "Apparently they feel they are going to do it by eliminating about 75 per cent of stand alone affiliates. "Our difficulty with this is that they are painting the struggling affiliates, the noncompliant affiliates, with the same brush as our own very successful small grass roots based community organizations." Stated benefits of the plan (according to Habitat for Humanity Canada) are: improved resource utilization, expanded opportunities for land acquisition, a more consistent public image and profile, less disparity in affiliate capacity, and enhanced corporate and government donor partnership opportunities when

plan from being approved this November. He suggested that Habitat Camrose organize petitions to get some expression of interest from the citizens of Camrose. Councillor John Howard said the move to force Habitat for Humanity Camrose under a regional umbrella would result in a loss of donor dollars. "I don't think Camrosians are selfish and I don't want to imply that, but I think Camrose has a responsibility to look after our community to the best of our ability." Howard also expressed concern over whether the proHabitat for Humanity Camrose president Erhard Pinno posed plan would result in a addressed City council July 11. loss of volunteers, especially if, under a new regional system, regional affiliate service areas the homes were prefabricated better match donor geographic in Edmonton and transported interests or markets. to Camrose to be put together.

In an official written Councillor Max Lindstrand response to the draft, Pinno said council needs to throw its said it is the wish of the Habitat support behind the efforts of Camrose board that Habitat for Habitat Camrose to stop the Humanity Canada amend the

current strategic plan to allow for small stand-alone affiliates who are successfully building and compliant with Habitat for Humanity Canada's policies and procedures to continue doing the work of building homes, and with them, hope in small communities. "The strategic plan may indeed benefit some struggling or non-compliant affiliates, however, the board feels that applying the same plan to successful affiliates such as ours will be disheartening to those in our community who have been the pillars of support for many years. The end result will be fewer, not more homes built." Pinno added that the loss of autonomy would compromise the identity of Habitat for Humanity Camrose as an organization within the community, and that the downgraded organizational status stemming from the elimination of the Camrose board would be a blow to the grassroots culture of volunteerism. "In short, many in our organization believe that we are losing something we spent 16 years building." Pinno feels the focus on larger regional affiliates as the cornerstones of increasing capacity unfairly overlooks the contributions of smaller affiliates. "Building a few homes per year, or every other year, is an achievement to be celebrated for small affiliates; they may be producing more in terms of capacity relative to population served than many large

affiliates. With this in mind, rather than pursuing centralization as a patch to greater efficiency, why not do more to support small affiliates, including those that are struggling." Well meaning Pinno told council that while that he and the Habitat Camrose board agree with the need to build more homes, they differ with Habitat Canada on how to make that goal a reality. "These (Habitat for Humanity Canada) are well meaning people. They mean to do the right thing to build more homes. Inasmuch as they are trying to address that need I share that vision with them." Councillor Gerry Galenza said the Habitat for Humanity proposal to regionalize is basically penalizing an affiliate that is doing good work. "Instead of looking at a model of good governance and good support from the community, they are lumping us all in with the regions." McCarroll said Habitat for Humanity Camrose will be banding together with some of the affiliates across the country, including those in Ontario, to seek legal advice concerning the protection of their assets. "That may be a long and expensive road." Habitat for Humanity Camrose was registered under the Societies Act in 1996 and built its first home in 1997. To date, Habitat Camrose has built 16 homes, and expects to finish two more homes this summer. The average monthly mortgage payments for the partner families is $457.75.

Camrose Royal Purple installs new executive

Tribute to pioneer women

The Camrose Railway Station Museum & Park will be holding its second Tribute to Pioneer Women, Saturday, Aug. 6. The event generated considerable interest last year when four local women delivered presentations about a pioneer ancestor to a packed house. While few women of the pioneer era made it into history books, all left a significant mark within their homes and within our community. The Camrose Railway Station & Park will highlight four, whose stories will be told from the perspective of their own descendants. Presentations will be accompanied by photographs and artifacts which will then be displayed in the Station Museum for the following two weeks. The program will start at 2:00 p.m.

The Camrose Royal Purple installed a new slate of officers for 2011-2012 April 26. Pictured are: (left to right, front) Associa te Royal Lady Isabelle Meadley, Honoured Royal Lady Doreen Kelly, Immediate Past Honoured Royal Lady Doris Hoffman, (left to right, back ) Chaplain Ruth Fleming, Lecturing Lady Joan Lee, Conductress Doreen Pushak, Pianist Florence Boden, Treasurer Velma Babiuk, Inner Guard Iona Adams, Secretary Linda Stevenson, Loyal Lady Gerri Szott, and Historian Marge Lynch.

Camrose County councillor Trevor Miller was named the local candidate for the Wildrose Alliance Party for the next provincial election. Trevor was in the running for the position along with Orest Werezak and Tim Essington. He received the most votes from local members on July 4. Trevor believes his background will help him give the party a higher profile. "It was a great ambition of mine to become politically active and engage in my community. In 2007, I campaigned to become a county councillor in my division. My daunting task was to meet and build a relationship with as many people as I could in a short time. I knocked on every door in my area and I learned so much from this experience. I met some very interesting people and I must admit it was very exhilarating. Many offered me ideas for my platform." He was re-elected in 2010 against strong competition. "I focused on building and maintaining relationships with constituents creating dialog around issues, solutions and modelled the qualities of effective and accountable leadership."

Aaron Lindberg, from First New Norway Scouts, and Mitchell Dunn, from Sixth Camrose Scouts, received Chief Scout Awards June 18. The awards ceremony was held in the Horowitz Theatre at the University of Alberta, and included award recipients from the Northern Lights Council (Northern Alberta). The Chief Scout Award was created in September, 1973, by Governor General Roland Michener, who was then Chief Scout of Canada. The Chief Scout Award requires prospective recipients to complete a variety of awards, challenge badges and First Aid training, as well as complete a Challenging Program project that expands on their citizenship, leadership, personal and outdoor skills. It usually takes three or four years to complete all the requirements for the award. Dunn coordinated and ran a Yellow Fish Road program for all of the sections in the Sixth Camrose Scouts, while Lindberg organized, set up and prepared a Scout camp for the members of the First New Norway Scouts and Sixth Camrose Scouts.

35th Anniversary Event... At Konto and Sofa Land in Camrose! Pictured are members of the CCHS Interact Club with a gazebo to be installed this summer. Submitted

The Camrose Composite Interact Club, chartered in May last year, has wrapped up its first complete year with two major projects. The proceeds from the May 25 â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is Africaâ&#x20AC;? evening supported development work in Tanzania and a green space for students at CCHS. The Tanzanian project is one recommended by CCHS graduate and charter Interact member Vanessa Barr. Vanessa and her parents spent a month in Africa as volunteers at a school and an orphanage. On her return to Canada, Vanessa has dedicated herself to fundraising to assist the continued work of those local initiatives. The local Interact Club is one of a number of local agencies and individuals supporting Vanessaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s efforts. The green space is to be located north of the existing library and will be built in stages over the next three years. This yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s installation includes a gazebo and two picnic tables on concrete pads. Mr. Doigâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Building Construction students Bryce Acorn, Ben Patterson, Blake Helgeland, and BJ Smeaton designed and built the gazebo. BRSD maintenance staff will install the Interact-funded features over the summer. Individual Rotarians and community members have provided additional support for the project. These two major projects are only the most recent of CCHS Interactâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s activities over the past school year. The club has also sponsored a student at a girlsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; school in Malawi, donated more than 2,000 diapers to the young mothers in the Learning Together program, supported the Food Bank and the Merry Christmas Cheer Fund, and given their time to a range of volunteer activities. A highlight of next yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s program is a proposed service trip to the Dominican Republic. Participating in such an ambitious program will be expensive, and preliminary planning is already underway. International Director Laura Travers and President Monika Thygesen are already at work on possible fund-raisers to make such an ambitious project possible. Interact members were inspired by the experience of local Rotarian Lynn Clark on a service program to that country. Interact is a junior service organization affiliated with Rotary International. The CCHS group is sponsored by the Daybreak Rotary Club.

Resurrection Lutheran holds Block Party By Dan Jensen

Camrose's Resurrection Lutheran Brethren Church held its second annual Block Party at Chester Ronning School June 26. "We had between 250 and 270 people attend," explained Resurrection Lutheran Brethren member Cheryl Chetney. "Everyone seemed to be having a good time." The party was organized in conjunction with Shine Camrose, an outreach arm of the Camrose Neighbor Aid Centre. "The purpose was to build strong community relationships in the Chester Ronning and Mount Pleasant Drive areas, as well as promote Shine Camrose's children's programs in the area," said Chetney. Fusion International, from Edmonton, organized activities for the block party that included face painting, a giant game of Snakes and Ladders, marshmallow sculpting, stilt walking, juggling, spinning plates and balloon tying. Sponsors of the party included Fusion International, M&M Meats, Centra Cam, McDonald's and Sobey's. Camrose Lutheran Bible Institute's summer teams assisted with cooking and games, as did volunteers from the immediate neighbourhood and members of the church. Resurrection Lutheran Brethren Church is currently making plans for its annual Vacation Bible School, which will be held from 9:00 a.m. to noon, Aug. 22 to Aug. 25. Parents may register their children by calling the church office at 780672-9900 or going to the Resurrection Lutheran Brethren Church website at www.rezchurch.ca/

PEN POINTS by Berdie Fowler

If conceivable, it's achievable As a society, we have not been very good at foreseeing the way we will react to change. I came to that conclusion when I read a recent e-mail that reminded me of the things we thought and said fifty-five years ago. In 1955, we couldn’t believe that the Post Office was thinking of charging as much as ten cents to deliver a letter. We couldn’t believe that the cost of gas would go up to 29 cents a gallon and considered that it might be better to leave the car in the garage. We said we would never pay as much as 50 cents for a haircut. If the price of a pack of cigarettes went up to 25 cents, we vowed we would quit smoking rather than pay. Lots of skeptics ridiculed the scientist who expressed the opinion that a man could be landed on the moon by the year 2000 (as we know, it actually happened years sooner, in 1969). If they raised the minimum wage to $1 per hour, we predicted that nobody would be able to afford to hire extra help. I will comment further on only the item regarding minimum wage rate. I have sung this song before but I am passionate about what I say and believe it is worth repeating. I know that the stated objective of raising minimum wages is to benefit our lowest paid workers; that goal is altruistic and commendable. However, it is my firm belief that it has the opposite effect. While it puts more dollars into lower income persons’ pockets, it, at the same time, reduces their buying power because it causes the price of things they need to go up. In my lifetime I have watched minimum wages rise from about 50 cents per hour to $8.80 per hour now with a raise to $9.40 per hour to become effective Sept. 1, 2011, in Alberta. Over that span of time I have observed that a minimum wage at the lower level wouldn’t buy a home and, now, at about 20 times higher, it still won’t buy a home – nor will the higher minimum wage now buy any more of a family’s basic needs than did the lower rate years ago. Some argue that so few workers get minimum wage that raising it will not result in higher costs to consumers. But that is not the way it works. On Sept. 1, 2011, the worker who is already getting $9.40 per hour will not be satisfied remaining at what will then be the minimum; in all fairness, he or she will also get a raise – and so it will go on up the line to higher levels of pay. Also, many raises up the line tend to be based on percentage of wage rather than fixed amounts with the result that the higher one’s earnings the larger the increase – some at the top to exorbitant and unfair levels. This is exactly what has been happening – in Alberta, Canada and around the world. The gap between rich and poor is therefore ever widening and there are fears that a moderate middle income group will disappear leaving only a few people of extreme wealth and a large majority living in extreme poverty. We are, at present, knowingly creating this disparity. In the world, there are many philanthropic individuals and organizations deeply engaged in efforts to change the trend. It is being done most effectively by helping the poorest of the poor to help themselves – based on the principle that if one gives a man a fish, he is fed for a day; if a man is taught to fish, he can feed himself for a lifetime. This has proven to be successful. Whether here at home, or elsewhere in the world, disparity can be alleviated best by creating an environment in which equal opportunity is in fact available for all: peace and safety, adequate food, accessible health care and educational opportunities for all, not just some. Impossible? Fifty-five years ago most of us thought that landing a man on the moon was impossible. What the mind can conceive, man can achieve.

I am looking at the results of last night's hailstorm – leaf salad on my deck, not a berry left on the cranberry trees. The field of peas north of us here looks gone. Yesterday a mass of white blossoms and some pods already forming. Definitely not a field of dreams unless it comes back or is turned under to provide natural nitrogen, which many of these fields have not known for many a moon. I am sorry for the farmer whose field this is (my dad was a farmer). I love the land. Maybe it was best when 60 million buffalo roamed North America. The tall grasses, etc., everything natural. Of course, I would miss my breadstuffs, and even perogies. The Audubon Book of North America weather, under hailstones, says (a brief quote): "The high plains immediately east of the Rocky Mountains experience the most frequent hailstorms in North America." Hail Alley extends from northern Alberta, Canada, into Montana, and continues southeast to include the eastern points of Wyoming, Colorado, etc. (all the western and central States). Cheyenne is North America's most hail prone city. A hailstone can weigh over a pound. Small living frogs have been found in large hailstones (pages 141 and 154). Tanyss Peddie, Camrose

Wilson discusses real issues about transmission lines By Murray Green Legal expert Keith Wilson will be speaking about property rights, land use, resource and regulatory approvals at the Daysland Community Hall on July 26 at 1 p.m. Mr. Wilson will offer insight on the implications of Bills 19, 24, 36 and 50 that the Alberta Government is proposing. In May, Dr. Ted Morton, MLA Foothills-Rocky View, admitted he misled Albertans on the real reason the government wanted to build transmission lines in this province. He is currently running for the position of Premier. The MLA said that Bill 50 would allow for the overbuild that his PC government declared necessary and which he previously defended. Mr. Wilson has been opposed to the Bills from the start and outlines that the passing of them would increase electricity cost by two or three times more than Albertans currently pay. He also confirms that the land use bills will give the government more power over private land. "It's not just about the transmission rates going up by two or three times the current amount. It is also about the loss of rights by other landowners across the province," said Colleen Boddez, an Alberta landowner. "I ended up starting the Landowners Against Bills Society to provide information meetings to business owners, landowners and contractors." Colleen considers all of the bills to be important. "They take away landowners' rights. Keith is helping us by speaking twice a day throughout the province. People are so frustrated with the current government." The government said the new lines needed to be built because present lines were aged and required upgrading for Albertans. The truth is that the

government wanted the lines to be built for export reasons. "We do realize some upgrades might be needed, but not $16 billion worth just to export to the United States," said Colleen. Two other PC leadership hopefuls, Gary Mar and Alison Redford, also said they can't support Bill 50 as is. "At this time we can't support any of the Premier candidates because none of them have come out and said they would scrap all four bills," said Colleen. "Just to say they will revisit them doesn't mean anything. People are not stupid. They know it doesn't necessarily matter who the Premier is. It's the whole party that has to change." Morton first came clean when both the NDP and Wildrose Party secured proof of documents showing the PC government was lying to Albertans. He didn’t name names, but suggested several PC caucus members also expressed opposition to Bill 50 behind closed doors in caucus and at other forums. "It is now encouraging because every meeting Keith goes to, people become more informed as to what is going on with the repercussions of the bills." It was suggested by people at a Daysland meeting in late February that the costs could even hit between three and eight times the amount the government was telling the public. "This is going to break Alberta's economy because we can't afford to take the brunt of the 61 per cent increase to the power bills of businesses and ratepayers," added Colleen. "When you look at businesses that power costs are 90 per cent of their costs, they can't stay open without moving out of the province. They will move south or to another province." The current government has been misleading Albertans about its intentions. “Albertans

Camrose Furniture Warehouse 4940-51 Street, Camrose Phone 780-672-2253 should not be on the hook for at least $13 billion of lines not even meant to be used by Albertans,” said NDP leader Brian Mason. Leaked correspondence between Alberta and the United States that discusses exporting Alberta’s electricity south of the border strongly suggest the Alberta government has misled Albertans on the true reason for its planned $16 billion upgrade to the transmission system. “I hope Albertans realize that this isn't a game. This is our lives they (government) are dealing with," said Colleen. "This doesn't just affect rural people. All businesses and ratepayers will be forced to pay higher costs if these bills go through. We have to wake up and prevent the loss of democracy in our province." The overbuild was declared critical infrastructure under Bill 50 – the Electric Statutes Amendment Act, which allows such a designation to be applied to infrastructure projects without a needs assessment. Bills 19 and 36 would allow any government official to do whatever they wanted on any land.

Good health is crucial to our happiness and well-being. Unfortunately, many of us take our health for granted until it becomes compromised, and when it does, we want to see someone who will listen to us, understand us, and most importantly, help us. Anyone who knows Tammy Lynn also knows the deep empathy she feels for her patients. “I have muscle issues myself,” she says. “I know what muscle pain feels like and I have a lot of compassion for people dealing with it.” Keeping up with the newest technology, Tammy Lynn uses various techniques/tools to assist her in giving the best possible care to each and every client. “I treat everyone with different combinations of techniques because no two bodies are the same,” she says. “My work is also enhanced with a combined effort of chiropractic care and a client’s willingness to improve.” She also firmly believes that good communication between therapist and client is key to getting results. Tammy Lynn offers a wide variety of treatments including sports massage, cranial sacral, deep tissue massage, Chinese cupping, pregnancy and infant massage, electronic acupuncture, SOLO infrared sauna, abaton bed, paraffi n wax therapy, ion detox and candling – all of which are meant to relieve pain, stress and fatigue, and detoxify the body. All treatments are now offered through her wellness center in Ferintosh. However, Tammy Lynn is quick to note that massage therapists do not off er quick fixes. “What we do is address muscle tension, spasms and blockages so that the body can start to heal itself,” she says.

Cindy Elliott, Co-owner Elliott's Auto Care

You know you must be on the right track when longtime customers bring fresh-baked goodies to you as a way of saying thanks. It’s even more fulfilling when you’re running an auto repair business, which isn’t high on the list of where people like to spend their time. If someone goes to see a mechanic, chances are there’s something wrong with their vehicle. They’re probably not thinking about whether to bake chocolate chip cookies or butter tarts. It’s a little different at Elliott’s Auto Care, some of their customers do bring baking. They appreciate the personal service, the way Cindy makes them feel welcome, the small gestures of friendliness and a philosophy that often separates the small independent shop from the bigger garages where customers are equated to numbers. Cindy, with husband and partner Eric, first started in the business some 25 years ago when they operated the Gulf service station at the corner of 48 Avenue and 50 Street. That’s a long time ago, but some of the customers they served in their first location are still customers in their shop on 48 Avenue, which they’re been running the past nine years. By any measure, the venture has been a success. They started with one full time mechanic and now have three, effectively tripling their business in those nine years. This growth can be attributed in no small part to the way Cindy works with customers, treating them as she would want to be treated, with respect. Communication is key, says Cindy. Talking with customers, explaining the work needed and finding solutions are all part of the process, a process which Cindy truly enjoys. The next time you’re in need of some work to your vehicle, remember Elliott’s Auto Care. Who knows, there may even be a plate of warm chocolate chip cookies on the front counter.

Jennifer Dalkin, Owner Budget Blinds

Jennifer was always pleased with the quality, service and prices off ered by Budget Blinds and was herself a repeat customer of the company before she purchased the Camrose/Leduc office last year. However, Jennifer is quick to note, “Don’t let the company name mislead you. We do all styles from basic blinds and window coverings to the very elaborate and upscale, including accessories. For example, for a bedroom we can do throw pillows or a bedspread to match the window coverings. Whatever our client wants,” she says. Budget Blinds is a full service company. Not only do they offer a free home consultation before any purchase, Jennifer highly recommends it. “Looking at samples and swatches in a showroom is entirely different from looking at them in your own home,” sh e says. “It’s important to see colors and styles in your own lighting and space. Once you’ve made your choices we take care of the rest, including the installation. We also have a 5 year no questions asked guarantee on top of the regular manufacturer’s warranty. We always say we have a blind for every budget and a style for every point of view,” says Jennifer. “And it’s very gratifying to meet with people and help them choose products that make their house a home.”

Jenn Stone, General Manager

Audrey Pfannmuller, Owner

If you were asked to describe the typical autobody worker, your answer probably would include words like: man, coveralls, rough hands, rigid. Meet Jenn Stone, not your typical autobody worker. As general manager of The Auto Shoppe in Camrose, Jenn describes her work in ways more empathetic than the industry standard. She talks about the “healing process” people go through after their vehicle has been in an accident. “My goal is having customers happy with their repairs and having the least stressful experience possible,” says Jenn with a vivacious smile. When was the last time your autobody person used the words healing and stressful? Jenn also is driven by keeping up with the latest technology in the industry. “We have positioned ourselves to increase productivity and reduce waste by purchasing top-of-the-line equipment and training our staffto increase efficiency.” She and owner Gord Graham are committed to increasing their ability to help customers. She defines success as building lasting relationships with customers and trade partners. If you’re in need of autobody collision repairs and want someone who puts your needs first, call Jenn at the Auto Shoppe and be prepared for a refreshing change.

Color, design and composition – three words that speak volumes. When Audrey Pfannmuller, who started Candler Art Gallery 34 years ago, began considering what kind of business she would like to pursue in Camrose, she thought about her passions, and she kept coming back to color, design and composition. She also believed in the power of art. “Art enhances our lives,” says Audrey. She enjoys getting people excited about their personal choices as they relate to their surroundings, particularly the choices they can make about the artwork adorning their personal space. Regardless of what’s currently in style, Audrey encourages her clients to follow their own tastes and passions. “People know what they like,” she says, and she can provide an astonishing array of choices when her clients are considering what they would like in their homes. Art is one of the least expensive forms of entertainment. “If you consider the cost of going out to a ﬁ ne restaurant, in comparison to a stimulating piece of art that lasts for years, art is a relatively inexpensive investment,” she says. If you would like to get inspired, visit Candler Art Gallery today. Browse through the upstairs gallery, talk to the staﬀ about your options and prepare yourself for a rewarding experience that will last for years.

Students won't be making their way to Gardner College this fall for instruction in theology and early childhood development but the Gardner College Kids' Campus Day Care will be as busy (perhaps busier) as ever. "We aren't closing," said Kids' Campus Day Care director Sandy Mize. "I have been assured of that over and over." Kids' Campus Day Care provides services to 70 to 80 children during a given month, with 50 to 60 of those being full-time regulars. "We had 76 come through last month so we are definitely meeting a need in the community," said Mize. The day care will be opening another room this fall to accommodate the children of 12 more families who are currently on a waiting list, and will be improving its playground. It is also hoping to start an out-of-school care program. "If we can find six more children who need out-of-school care we will open that," said Mize. Gardner College Kids' Campus Day Care improvement projects will receive a boost this Sept. 25 when 17 people will jump out of an airplane and try to land on a designated target. "The jumpers have been asked to collect pledges and encouraged to set a goal of $2,000 each," said Mize. The day care employs four graduates from Gardner College's Early Childhood Development, and if everything goes as planned, will be hiring two more come fall. "In every room we have at least one staff member who has level three certification," said Mize. "We have experienced staff here who have worked five years or more in day care." Gardner College Kids' Campus Day Care comes under the auspices of a Day Care Advisory Board, which in turn reports to the Gardner College Board of Trustees.

You can spend your summer enjoying surrounding parks without leaving the county. Camrose County has made planning ahead a lot easier with the addition of a new registration program. The county has entered into an agreement with Sierra Systems and the province to be included in an automated on-line campground reservation and registration system for Pelican Point Park Campground. At a meeting on July 11, the county agreed to a one-time fee payable to Sierra Systems not to exceed $5,800, as well as a one-time fee payable to Silvacom not to exceed $10,000, both of which will be funded through the Pelican Point Park Campground Reserve Account. Pelican Point Pelican Point Park is located on Buffalo Lake, 10 km east of Bashaw on Highway 53 and six kilometres south. There are 58 sites, with some power sites available. The campground features beach access, a caretaker/manager on site, a day-use area, fire pits, firewood at a cost, a fish cleaning stand, group camping, horseshoe pits, an interpretive trail, picnic tables, a pier on site, a public phone, a water pump, water tap and showers. The Pelican Point Campground features some of the best family beach in Alberta. On a hot day, the whole family can cool off in a designated swimming area that will even satisfy a nonswimmer. With new washroom facilities, complete with showers, a marina, a concession and mini golf, there is fun for the entire family. During the long weekend

in August there will be a sand castle contest. Phone 780-3724022 or check on-line for reservation information. Tillicum Beach Another great place to relax in peace is the Tillicum Beach Park. Located on Dried Meat Lake, one kilometre east of Camrose and 14 kilometres south of Highway 13. The newly renovated park contains seven camping sites with power. Registration is on a first come, first served basis. Camping fees are $29 for powered sites per night with a maximum length of continuous camping stay of 16 days. Other features include coin operated showers, washrooms, a mesa shelter, a garden look-out, walking trails, a ball diamond, a day use area, a playground, fire pits, a boat launch, pier, fish cleaning stand and water tap. Nature Centre The county has also added a day use facility. The Camrose County Nature Conservation Centre opened last summer on 37 acres. Drive 14.5 kilometres east on Highway 13 to Green Grove Road, then 8.5 km south to TWP 452 or 11.5 kilometres south on Highway 56 to Heather Brae Hall Road TWP 452, then east eight kilometres to RGE 185. Activities may include swimming, non motorized boating, scuba diving, fishing, nature walks, bird watching, fire pits, picnics, or just enjoying the sun. It is a full family experience.

Feth reaches top 17 at junior golf westerns in rain By Murray Green

Golfer Austin Cruickshank of Calgary held onto a two-stroke lead in the junior boys' division of the rain-shortened CN Future Links Western Championship to win the event at Wolf Creek Golf Resort in Ponoka, July 13 and 14. Kieran Standen of Edmonton and Aaron Crawford of Calgary both finished two strokes back. The championships are usually played in three rounds, but the first round was cancelled because of heavy rain on July 12. In the first round of play, Cole Feth of Camrose tied for 37th place by shooting 41-39-80 to give him a plus nine on July 13. Cole battled back on the sec-

ond day with a 71, par for the course, to claw his way back to 17th place. He was one of only six golfers to shoot par or better on the rain-soaked course. Junior Open In the Ponoka Junior Open tournament, Andrew Harrison of Camrose fired a 76 to finish tied for eighth place, just five strokes off the leader. However, Andrew placed first in the golfers born in 1996 or later. He often golfs against boys up to five years older than himself. The Camrose Golf Course will be hosting the Alberta McLennan Ross junior golf tour on July 21.

Winter in the summer

Julie Murdoch of Camrose captured the result of the July 13 hail storm that ripped through parts of the city. High winds, rain and hail made the street beside the Aquatic Centre look like a swimming pool.

Prairie Fun Days a chance to Council explore county in new ways objects to By Dan Jensen

Ever wondered what it would be like to wander through a corn maze, handcrank a pail of ice cream, sit in the pew of a 128- year-old church, or pretend to be a student in an old one-room school house? You'll be able to do all those things and more August 20 and 21 when Camrose County and the Canadian Northern Society hold their inaugural Prairie Fun Days. A self-guided driving excursion patterned after one in Beaver County, Prairie Fun Days is a chance, as the promotional brochure explains, "to explore glorious Camrose County as you never have before." "Prairie Fun Days is a way to show off our communities and show residents and visitors alike the variety of experiences there are in Camrose County," said Canadian Northern Society representative Janine Carroll. Prairie Fun Days will feature 11 different attractions, including Alberta's Littlest Airport, Camrose County Nature Conservation Centre, the Meeting Creek Railway Station and Elevator, Bashaw Fire Hall Museum, Ferintosh Manor Bed and Breakfast, St. Thomas Catholic Church, Verdun School, Hay Lakes Telegraph Park, Kingman Museum and Tea House, Jojo's Maze Craze and 18-hole mini golf, and Hampton School. All 11 will be open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. both days, with some open into the evening. "Jojo's Maze Craze will be staying

open Saturday evening so people will be able to wander through the maze by flashlight and enjoy a campfire experience," said Canadian Northern Society's Barb McDonald. Those who journey to Bashaw will be able to take in the community's 100th birthday celebrations or catch a movie at the historic Majestic Theatre. Hay Lakes Telegraph Park will provide the opportunity to stook a grain crop, see harvest machinery in action, fly kites, participate in crafts and learn about the hobo codes from the 1930s. The Hay Lakes Historical Society, Telegraph Park and town are really getting behind this," said McDonald. Verdun School, west of Duhamel, is one of the oldest remaining oneroom schools in the province, while Hampton School, east of Camrose on Highway 26, was built in 1904, before Alberta became a province, and is one of the few one-room rural school houses still on the original site. The Kingman Museum and Tea House, which was moved to Kingman and set on a new foundation in 1950, houses school, post office and other miscellaneous artifacts. Alberta's Littlest Airport, east of Camrose on RR 183 will have a two-day fun fly, starting at 10 a.m. Saturday. "The hobbyists here love to talk about their model airplanes and will answer any questions that are presented to them," said McDonald.

Attractions in Meeting Creek include a 1913 Canadian Northern Railway Station and 1917 classic prairie grain elevator. A breakfast buffet will be held in the Meeting Creek Community Centre from 9:00 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. on Sunday. The designated stop in Ferintosh is Ferintosh Manor Bed and Breakfast, a 1930 heritage home with stunning views of Beaver Lake. St. Thomas Catholic Church, just up the hill from the Ross' Flats Campground on Highway 21, houses artifacts and memories of the Metis missionaries and fur traders. Camrose County reeve Don Gregorwich is delighted with the leadership shown by the Canadian Northern Society in promoting and organizing Prairie Fun Days. "It is a really relevant idea," he said. "If you get in the car and go from one end of the County to the other you will be amazed at the diversity and geography, and the types of businesses and farms that are out there, all of which have something different. Too often we just get in the car and we go great distances, not appreciating what we have right here at home." Prairie Fun Days promotional brochures may be found at most of the visitor information centres around east central Alberta or at the Camrose County office. Information is also available on the Camrose County and Tourism Camrose websites.

Lefthanders hold successful tournament

Dan Olofson (fourth from left) presents the Camrose Lefthanders' Golf Tournament championship trophy to Bob Matheson, of Sherwood Park. Joining them were tournament committee chair Lorne Broen (right) and flight winners (left to right, front) Matt Suchodolski, Barry Hillier, Tim Green, Neil McLennan, (left to right, back) Cory Campbell, Tim Williams, Rick Wozny, Chuck Cathcart, Jim Majeski and Keith McLarty. By Dan Jensen

Duffers from as far away as Calgary, Rocky Mountain House, Red Deer, Stettler, Hardisty and Grande Prairie participated in the 23rd annual Lefthanders' Tournament at the Camrose Golf Course July 8. "We had 90 golfers take part, which was about four more than we had last year," said Camrose Lefthanders' Golf Tournament committee chair Lorne Broen in his post-tournament summary. "We could have had a few more were it not for a few cancellations." The Camrose Lefthanders' Golf Tournament is one of the biggest tournaments for lefthanded golfers in the province. "I don't know of any other tournaments like this that exist," said Broen. The tournament received good reviews in spite of the rain that caused a few delays. "All the golfers with whom I talked had good positive comments about the tournament and the course," said Broen.

"A lot told me that they were going to be coming to the next one." Duff Layton's sponsored the black jacket and plaque for the overall champion, while Zarski's Body Shop sponsored the first-place prizes for each flight. McClellan Wheaton Chevrolet Buick GMC put up a vehicle (which went unclaimed) for anyone who had a hole-in-one on the 14th hole. "We as a committee are very appreciative of our sponsors," said Broen. "If it hadn't been for them we wouldn't have been able to give the golfers the experience they had." The Camrose Lefthanders' Golf Tournament committee will be meeting in the next few weeks to discuss plans for the 2012 tournament. Some of the committee members have indicated they would like to have the tournament earlier in the summer, perhaps June, so that it doesn't interfere with vacation plans. Bob Matheson, of Sherwood Park, was the tournament's overall champion, posting a score of 76.

Matt Suchodolski, of Camrose, won the first flight with a score of 78. Barry Hillier, of Leduc, won the second flight with a score of 78. Tim Green, of Camrose, won the third flight with a score of 82. Neil McLennan, of Edmonton, won the fourth flight with a score of 83. Cory Campbell, of Camrose, won the fifth flight with a score of 88. Tim Williams, of Whitecourt, won the sixth flight with a score of 82. Rick Wozny, of Wainwright, won the seventh flight with a score of 94. Chuck Cathcart, of Edmonton, won the eighth flight with a score of 96. Jim Majeski, of Camrose, won the ninth flight with a score of 93. Keith McLarty, of Hardisty, won the tenth flight with a score of 102. After expense proceeds from the Camrose Lefthanders' Golf Tournament will be donated to the Canadian Cancer Society for breast cancer research.

extra fe e

By Dan Jensen

City council is sending a letter to Alberta's Minister of Transportation objecting to a proposal to increase the fee for electronic vehicle searches by $15 September 1. The fee helps cover the cost of placing a name to the licence plate for drivers who have been caught speeding by photo radar. "The government just out of the blue decided it was going to start charging an additional $15 a plate," said Mayor Marshall Chalmers. "There was no consultation, there was no heads up at the budget process, it was just we are going to do it." The estimated cost of the program province-wide is $12 million. The estimated impact of the fee increase on the City of Camrose tax levy is $80,000. "That's a lot of money that not only our city but all the cities that are involved in the photo radar program are going to have to pay," said Chalmers. "Nobody across the province was prepared or are prepared to find the money to pay for that." Minister of Transportation Luke Ouelette has indicated that Service Alberta has seen a steady increase in the demand for municipalities for data on drivers and vehicle registrations, and that the province cannot continue to absorb the costs. The minister's figures show that the total expenses to support the registry information technology system are $70.9 million, compared to $30.8 million in 2002-2003. Councillor Gerry Galenza expressed concern over where the City of Camrose is going to find the money to pay the additional fees, since the money it receives from the Municipal Sustainability Initiative is designated for capital expenses only. He is hopeful that things will change when the Progressive Conservatives elect a new leader later this year. "Some of the leadership candidates are not supporting this," he said, "and with the premier vacating his office there will be a new direction." Mayor Chalmers said he doesn't understand the logic of the provincial government with the increase. "It's like they are saying we help you in other areas so you can pay here. "To me that is a children's game." Reaction to the proposed fine increase from the AUMA has been harsh. In a media release dated July 5, the association criticized the government for once again downloading responsibilities without providing the offsetting funds to municipalities, leaving them in a position of having to find significant additional dollars to cover the new cost. "It means property owners will have to bear the costs of those who speed," said the release. "In short, law-abiding citizens will have to subsidize speeders." AUMA president Dean Aldrous said municipalities are left holding the bag and it doesn't seem fair that they should have to find additional money to cover the new cost. "Many municipalities already subsidize policing in the province and this new fee will further burden many communities. Meanwhile the government will pocket a significant cash windfall on the backs of municipalities and taxpayers. It is outrageous that the government has actually claimed to have consulted with us in advance of implementing this new fee."

Valedictorian encourages PACE grads to "go with a fire" The valedictorian address for the PACE Outreach School graduation June 24 was delivered by Ash Filip. Good evening ladies, gentlemen, teachers, friends, guests and fellow graduates. I cannot even begin to tell you how enthralled I am to be here. There was a day not so long ago when I had my sincere doubts as to whether I'd ever graduate, and had it not been for the persistent prodding of my incredibly supportive family, I probably wouldn't have. They've seen me at my best and they've dealt with me at my worst, and I tell you all now, without the slightest reservation, that my being here today is attributable almost entirely to them. You'll note the "almost" in the last sentence. I give the remainder of the credit to the tremendously gifted and patient staff who have truly taken their roles as teachers to an extent you will be hard pressed to find in our day and age where education seems to be more about standardized tests and segregation. As opposed to cultivating and finding a suitable place within society for existing talent, regardless of individuality. After all they have put up with from me, I have come to regard the teachers at PACE with utmost respect and reverence. Last but not least, among my peers here today I have had a wealth of support, specifically from Josh Allan, whom I have known and enjoyed close friendship with for nine years now. He has also bested me intellectually on numerous occasions, and I personally believe he equally deserved the honour of valedictorian. I can say in all honesty that these past three years as a student of PACE were some of the greatest years I have yet enjoyed, and I will always remember them with the fondest nostalgia.

PACE Outreach School grads: (left to right, front) Eliece Burton, Vikki Jones, Sarah Wirch, (second row, left to right) Stacey Dunnigan (vice principal), Josh Allan, Daylan Banks, Ash Filip, Jordan Gervais, Jesse Kjos, Adam Laskoski, Bryce Schug, and Kerry LaBerge (pri ncipal).

Ash Filip was the PACE School valedictorian.

I come from a background of stability provided by the constant persevering love of my family, mingled with the instability that my own choices have thrown into play. I came very near to dropping out permanently for the

alluring distraction that quick, easy money can offer. Truthfully, this happened more than once. So to be here, now, where I stand today, you'll understand if I feel slightly overwhelmed. It is a daunting notion and the feeling I am left with is bittersweet. I feel as though I'm leaving behind one of the greatest times of my life but I have an anxious excitement to find out what is held before me. Most of us standing here this evening have to admit that without PACE Outreach our chances of graduating would have drastically decreased. Kerry LaBerge and his staff took everything we could throw at them in good humour, usually. I would hate to see the grocery bill we've left them with. Yet here they are, finally getting their well earned sayonara, you folks deserve it. Grads, allow me to take the opportunity to speak plainly with

all of you, as your equal. Each of you possesses such a potential to achieve greater things and I implore you not to squander it. From now on, you represent whether all of the collective efforts that culminated in today's ceremonies were worth it or not. More importantly, your lives and the manner of them are determined by what you do. You have all proven that you have what it takes to finish a goal once you've set it. Don't let anything make you lose sight of that reality, or else you may lose yourself forever to mediocrity. That is nothing short of a crime, in the face of all the opportunity I see with my own two eyes. My respect is such for all of you that I feel compelled to make this warning. We live in vastly changing times, and must be prepared to rise above the tide always.

Butterflies the focus of wildlife presentation Submitted by Kaylyn Jackson

Lepidoptera, the word may sound strange but it refers to a creature that we’ve all seen, the butterfly. Lepidoptera is the scientific name for a large order of insects including butterflies and moths. Last Tuesday at the Wildlife and Stewardship Societies Butterfly presentation Augustana Professor Dr. Tomislav Terzin spoke on butterflies both of Alberta and all around the world. In addition to his presentation Dr. Terzin brought in multiple specimen boxes full of both local and exotic butterflies. Earlier in the year Dr. Terzin’s complete collection was on display at the Augustana library as part of the Creatures of Wonderland Display. Along with his butterfly collection Dr. Terzin brought a butterfly net using it to demonstrate and explain how to properly catch butterflies without damaging their wings. He described how catching butterflies with a parent or grandparent was a wonderful way for children to experience nature. He also brought along a small field microscope which he said he used as a child growing up and catching butterflies in Serbia.

Butterflies both of Alberta and all around the world were featured at a wildlife presentation last week. Everyone was offered a chance to look through the microscope and view the intricate and delicate patterns of butterfly wings. Dr. Terzin is currently

studying coloration patterns in insects and explained how he is working with a small team of undergraduate and graduate students at Augustana and

that much of the work involved looking through a microscope is measuring and counting the small patterns formed by the scales on butterfly wings. The Camrose Rotary Club maintains its butterfly gardens on the grounds below the Stoney Creek Centre. If you’re looking for something to do on a sunny afternoon, heading down to the gardens to view some butterflies could be the perfect activity. In addition to the butterfly gardens there are many more interesting things happening at the Stoney Creek Centre. This Tuesday, July 19, come out and join in a wildflower walk (if weather is bad we will be indoors) and learn about some of the native flowers found in Camrose. Then, coming up on the July 26, come and learn all about pollination and then participate in a honey tasting. Our “How Honey Happens” presentation is the last of the summer line-up so be sure to come out and join in the festivities and fill out a survey for the chance to win the end of programs prize. For more information contact summer coordinator Kaylyn Jackson at 780-6720544 or by e-mail at kajackso@ ualberta.ca

The only life you can ever live securely is the one you can carve from your own two hands. Hone your talents, challenge your boundaries, and never think that you cannot tackle a goal if you discipline yourself. Remember all of you, Aesop's parable of the grasshopper who wasted the spring years while the more industrious ant gathered food. Only by the ant's mercy did the grasshopper survive that winter, and I will ask all of you, which would you rather be? Some of you may wish to attend university; some may wish simply to work. Regardless of what you choose, go with a fire and a passion that will leave none in doubt of your worth. Go expecting to learn, go ready for anything, and as the ancient Confucius said, "wherever you go, go with all your heart."

Soccer teams prepare for provincials By Murray Green

The Camrose and District Soccer Association will be sending eight Tier 3 teams to provincials this summer. The U12 girls and boys teams in Camrose will be hosting 24 clubs for provincials at Rudy Swanson Park on August 5 to 7. "We are not sure which teams are coming at this point, but we know it will be 12 teams in each," said Tammy Olson, executive director of the Central Alberta Soccer Association. "All Tier 3 provincials will be held on the same weekend." The U14 girls will be playing in Beaumont while the boys are in Airdrie. Both teams in the U16 division will be in Coaldale and both girls and boys U18 squads will be in Sherwood Park. The Camrose U12 girls Tier 4 club played in provincials on July 8 to 10 and placed ninth.

Chevrolet Cruze Refined for Canada

Graeme Davidson McClellan Wheaton Chevrolet By Dan Jensen

assistance that all last for five years, or 160,000 kilometres.

After making a splash around the world, the new Chevrolet Cruze has arrived at McClellan Wheaton Chevrolet Buick GMC, Camrose. "It's a popular compact car that has been refined for Canada," said McClellan Wheaton Chevrolet Buick GMC managing partner Will McClellan. The Cruze was launched in more than 60 countries before landing on Canadian soil. It was named AutoBest 2010 winner by European journalists, New Car of the Year in India, and Best Value for Money Car of the Year by Business Standard Motoring, and was a World Touring Car Championship multiple race winner. "Overall, the Cruze is quite an impressive effort, which, at least in terms of refinement and comfort, almost feels like something from the size or price bracket above," wrote The Independent (UK). "The new Cruze, with its excellent fuel economy, class leading safety equipment and low price tag, will definitely give the imports a run for their money," said Roadand Track.com.

Spacious interior

Bold face

The Chevy Cruze's design is distinguished with a bold face – including a two-tier grille with the iconic bowtie logo – that is Chevrolet's signature look around the globe. An arching roofline connects a steeply raked windshield and fast-sloping rear pillars to give the car a sporty, couple-like proportion. The sporty aesthetic is also seen in prominent headlamp housings that wrap around the corners and sweep upward in the fenders and sculpted hood, as well as a short rear deck typically found on sports coupes. The wheels are at the corners, too, with minimal front and rear overhangs. All the elements work cohesively to give Cruze an aggressive look that is complemented by a wide, confident stance. Turbocharged

A 1.4 litre ECOTEC Turbo four-cylinder engine (standard on the Cruze Eco, LT Turbo and LTZ Turbo models) produces best-in-class 5.0 litres/100 km highway and 7.1 litres/100 km city fuel consumption ratings. The engine combines a small displacement with the enhanced turbocharged torque needed for added acceleration and

passing power, while a variable displacement fuel pump reduces the amount of torque required to pump the oil, further increasing fuel efficiency. The Cruze LS features the fuel-efficient 136-horsepower 1.8 litre ECOTEC dual overhead cam four-cylinder engine. Both the 1.4 and 1.8 litre engines are backed up by six-speed manual and automatic transmissions which, with their carefully-matched gears, enhance the fun-todrive quotient. Cruze holds the road as well as it does your attention. The showcase of advanced handling technologies include the StabiliTrak electronic stability control system, traction control and a Z-link design rear suspension. An automatic air shutter system housed just behind the front grille opens and closes when appropriate, to minimize drag and maximize fuel efficiency. Cruze is backed by a powertrain component limited warranty, courtesy transportation and 24/7 roadside

The interior isn't just stylish – it's highly functional. A good example is the versatility offered by the standard 60/40 split-folding rear seats that open up to an extended cargo pass-through to the trunk. The bold approach to design is revealed by the sporty available two-tone interiors on LT and LTZ Turbo models. Then turn your attention to roominess that is nothing short of revelation in the compact car class. And a thorough attention to detail is prominently displayed with finishing touches like the French stitching on the luxurious Cruze LTZ Turbo's heated front seats with leatherappointed seating surfaces. "The interior is spacious. Visibility is outstanding. On the road, the Cruze is genuinely quiet – not from an overabundance of insulation, but from thoughtful design," said The Truth About Cars. The instrument panel is an excellent example of how Cruze eschews expectations of compact cars. It features richly detailed instruments that are backlit with light-emitting diode (LED) technology. The LED lights provide a crisp, ice-blue illumination of the analog instruments, as well as lighting for other interior controls. A segment-rare standard driver information centre offers a wealth of data for the vehicle owner. Blending harmoniously with the instrument panels is an integrated centre stack that houses the infotainment display, climate controls and radio controls. Flushmounted components within the centre stack have a gap tolerance of less than one mm, while the instrument panel-to-door panel gaps are less than 5 mm. Those tolerances are among the best in the class and contribute significantly to the Cruze's aura of refinement and precision. Safety

Ten standard air bags help make the Cruze one of the safest cars in its class. The body structure is tight and stiff, and its solidity enabled engineers to more precisely tune the chassis for more comfort and driving control.

Minor hockey teams move to Vikings By Murray Green

All Camrose Minor Hockey representative teams will now be called the Vikings in honour of the Augustana Vikings. The switch from the Kodiaks to the Vikings reflects a change in mentoring opportunities with the Augustana hockey players. Many of the students at the University of Alberta, Augustana Campus are willing to coach and help local teams because they earn extra credits for their education or want to add volunteering to their resume. "The board decided in June that the mentors' hip of the older players on the Vikings will really benefit our teams," said minor hockey president Chad Kendall. "The board felt the players will have more time available for our teams. For some Vikings, it's part of their program of studies at school and they receive credit as part of the university experience." Chad feels that since the Vikings have fewer games, they will be around a lot more to assist minor hockey. The Kodiaks have been involved with the midget program for a number of years. They have helped the atom and peewee teams for about three years. "We appreciate the help the Kodiaks have given us in the past. But, with them having more games and far more commitments in the community, it is a big time commitment," said Chad. "We feel this is a positive move for all involved." Chad, a teacher, watched the University of Alberta, Augustana Campus enter into a partnership with Battle River School Division recently and agreed a partnership would also be a good fit for minor hockey. "Teams from midget to novice will wear uniforms similar to the national teams and the Vikings. It will have a huge V on it with the name Camrose incorporated into it." When Camrose resident Dr. Roger Epp became the dean at Augustana, he encouraged more partnerships with the community. "When Greg Ryan was named the Augustana athletic director, one of the first things he did was meet with me," continued Chad. He wanted to set up some programs, help with the young players in the community and raise the profile of college and minor hockey." Chad wants to keep the natural progression in hockey intact. "Not too many minor hockey players step out of minor hockey and play in the ACAC," he said. "Usually you have to go through junior and then on to college." The changes and new uniforms will be ready for the start of the fall season.

When Pamela Morris went to work at the God's Littlest Angels orphanage in Haiti six months after that country's devastating earthquake, she was saddened by the number of people who were displaced and still living in tents. Now back home in Camrose, she has taken it upon herself to find another way to help. Morris is putting together a care package that she says will help God's Littlest Angels in its effort to rebuild the country. "I am looking for either cash donations (tax receipts available), building supplies, medical supplies, school supplies and anything else on their needs list," said Morris. Some of the donations will be used to build new homes. "God's Littlest Angels are helping to rebuild Haiti and they are doing it one home at a time," said Morris. "It costs $8,000 to build one home and they are trying to get their staff and volunteers in a safe place." Home supplies that would be welcome include electrical outlets, Hunter Douglas ceiling fans, door hinges, doors, sinks, toilets and floor drains. Other donations will be used to supply a nursery where, according to Jean Bell, U.S. Director of Operations for God's Littlest Angels, the biggest need babywise is powdered soy formula. "We received quite a bit of regular formula but very little soy, and 25 per cent of our kids are on soy." The nursery also needs surge protectors. "We have constant brown outs due to the fluctuating current and our medical equipment and other appliances are not lasting nearly as long as they should," said Bell. "We are hoping that if we get some good surge protectors it will help." Items God's Littlest Angels currently has enough of are: infant liquid vitamins, bar soap, diapers, baby lotion, infant Tylenol and clothing. Any questions about donations may be directed to Pamela Morris at 780-6782-5932 (home) or 780-678-6366. To see the God's Littlest Angels website, go to www.glahaiti.org. PURCHASE FOR

Guntrip cracks Team Alberta baseball lineup By Murray Green

Camrose baseball player Riley Guntrip was named to the Team Alberta baseball squad that will be trying to defend its crown in the 2011 Western Canada Summer Games in Kamloops, B.C., on August 5 to 9. The Alberta Amateur Baseball Council's Aaron Lavorato, the high performance coordinator, said he is proud to include Riley on the roster. Riley has played in Camrose for the past eight years, but decided to switch to the Red Deer Braves' competitive squad to give him a bigger challenge this season. "Camrose doesn't offer a competitive team in bantam and I wanted to play a higher level and see if I could play at that level," said Riley. "Last year, I played in the Alberta Summer Games and met some of the Red Deer players and became friends with them. They convinced me to join them, so I decided to try it. The difference is playing higher

level of teams. At the double-A level you have a mix of good and lower level teams. In triple-A, every team is good." The selection process started in May. "I attended a camp in Red Deer and then they picked the top 40 to come back in June," explained Riley. "I'm really excited to go and represent my province and Camrose while I'm doing it." A Team Alberta selection camp was held at Red Deer's Great Chief Park on June 27. Forty of the top 15-year-old players from across the province were invited to this camp, of which 18 were selected to Team Alberta to compete in the Western Canada Summer Games. "Last time Alberta won it and it would be good to defend the gold medal. Since B.C. is hosting, I expect them to have a good team. They always have a strong team. I want to finish first or second and bring back a medal," said Riley. "I hope this experience helps

me make future team Alberta teams." Three players from the Red Deer Servus Credit Union Bantam triple-A Braves were successful in being selected to Team Alberta. Mitch Vanson of Lacombe, Joel Mazurkewich of Red Deer and Riley were selected. Team Alberta will train in Spruce Grove August 1 to 3. Riley has played both catcher and pitcher this year and sees the difference in pitching. "Last year, every team had a good pitcher. This year in triple-A, every team is even and has at least three good pitchers. You see a lot more curve balls." He has been one of the top three pitchers for the Braves this summer. "I'm a goalie in hockey, so I like catching too. It kind of carries over from hockey. I think catching helps me be a better pitcher. As a catcher, you have to know what pitches to call at certain times. That experience also carries over into pitching.

Sometimes I call the pitches and sometimes the coaches tell us what to throw." Riley has been working on his curve to go along with a good fastball and a change up. "Throwing a good change is important, but adding another pitch really helps." Red Deer has been sitting in around fourth place in a 10-team division. "We have been playing well so far this season." The top five will play in the Tier 1 provincials and the second set of five will represent the Tier 2 provincials. "I want to thank my coaches last year for helping me reach this level. They were Lee Palmer, Steve Bergstrom, Chad Samoisette and Casey Palmer. This year Cam Moon and Mike Vanson have helped a lot." The Summer Games involve 345 athletes who will compete in several events including basketball, baseball, canoeing, wheelchair tennis and para-swimming.

Beaver County launches farm/acreage beautification award

Renman wins 5 Peaks

Submitted

Robert Renman of Camrose, left, settles in behind Brendan Lunty, also of Camrose, near the start of the 5 Peaks running trail series held at the biathlon range on July 16. Renman passed Lunty to win the 12 kilometre event by .05 seconds. He won the race in 55:16. Camrose had several competitors in the challenging event. Adam French of Camrose placed in the top 15, finishing in 14th place in 1:07:44.

Beaver County is inviting nominations for the inaugural Farm/ Acreage Beautification Award. “We have a strong rural community here in the county, and this award is a fitting way to express our appreciation to farm and acreage owners,” said Ron Yarham, Agricultural Service Board Chairman and Deputy Reeve, Beaver County. By nominating a farm or acreage in Beaver County, residents can help recognize the countless hours individuals have spent landscaping, gardening or enhancing their agricultural operation. The top three yards, as voted by the public, will receive a gift certificate valued at $150 to a local greenhouse or tree nursery of their choice. “We know there are a lot of beautiful places here in the county so we’re excited to see the nominations that come our way,” said Krista Kotylak, Acting Agricultural Fieldman. Nominations will be accepted until August 3, 2011. Voting will run August 8-24, 2011. Pending landowner permission, the nominated yards will be added to the Experience the Bounty in Beaver County route on August 12-14, 2011. A tour of the nominated farms will be hosted by the Agricultural Service Board on August 26, 2011. To place your nomination and cast your vote, visit www.beaver. ab.ca or www.facebook.com/beavercountyab, or call (780) 663-3730.

Celebrating a successful and historic royal tour Kevin Sorenson, M.P. Crowfoot Constituency

In our riding, everyone felt honoured to welcome the Royal Couple, Prince William and Catherine, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge on their first official tour of Canada. Canadians are proud of Canada’s history and the founding institutions that have helped make our country strong and free. The Royal Couple’s decision to make Canada the destination for their first official tour is a testament to Canada’s standing in the world, and the close ties between Canada and our Royal Family. It was a high compliment for these newly-weds to want to visit Canada, and it was our honour to welcome them. Thanks to the outpouring of mutual affection between Canadians and the Royal Couple, con-

nection to our founding institutions is stronger than ever, and we move forward together more confident and more optimistic for our shared future as proudly as we celebrate our shared history. The highlight of the Royal Tour for Western Canadians was when the Duke and Duchess joined our Prime Minister and Mrs. Harper along with His Excellency David Johnston, Governor General of Canada and his wife Sharon, to officially open the “Greatest Outdoor Show on Earth” – the Calgary Stampede. The Calgary Stampede is one of Canada’s biggest tourist attractions as well as one of the largest regional cultural events; it celebrates a proud history and tradition and showcases it for all Canadians to partake in and enjoy. The Calgary Stampede is

Parliamentary Report not only a celebration of Canada’s western history, but it also showcases the music, art, culture and people from all across Canada. As your Member of Parliament, my wife Darlene and I were invited to the Stampede Barbecue hosted by Prime Minister Harper for the Royal Couple. It was a privilege to meet the future King and his wife. It was a very brief encounter, as it was for most Canadians. Everywhere they went massive crowds had been patiently waiting in anticipation of seeing the Royal Couple along motorcade and parade routes or at ceremonies. We all

got to spend a moment with them in our own way. During their tour of Canada, the Royal Couple met hundreds of Canadians and toured dozens of sites that showcase the best of Canada’s cultural, technological, political and historic locations. From Canada’s foundations in Ottawa, Montreal and old Quebec, to our Atlantic roots, to our arctic frontier and Canada’s new west, our government was pleased to welcome the Royal Couple and celebrate the best of our past with the brightest of our future. The Royal Couple made seven official stops in four provinces and one territory in nine days between June 30 and July 8. Tens of thousands of Canadians welcomed the Duke and Duchess in Ottawa, Montreal and Quebec City, Charlottetown and Sum-

merside (PEI), Yellowknife, and Calgary. The other highlight for Albertans of the Royal Couple’s visit was their special stop in Slave Lake. The two young Royal newly-weds inspired the residents recovering from May’s devastating wildfires. They personally delivered their gift of hope, optimism, and confidence. All Albertans appreciated their making time in their schedule to visit Slave Lake. They inspired us all, and they brought the Monarchy closer to us than it has been in recent years.

PHOTO CLASSIFIED ADS

A picture is worth 1,000 words!

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

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

Be Honest Exaggerating your item’s fi ner 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.
