The Rotary Club of Camrose has a goal of donating at least $90,000 from fund-raising efforts this year. Much of this lofty amount will be directed to help finance interesting projects for Camrose Craft Centre, Camrose Academy of Curling, Camrose Fire Department, Family Resource Centre, About Time Productions, Battle River Watershed Alliance, Gardner College Kids Campus Day Care, Reading University, Camrose Women’s Shelter and other community groups. The Club’s biggest fund-raiser of the year,

the 16th annual Black Tie Dinner,

takes place Saturday, May 3, starting at 5:30 p.m., Norsemen Inn. As usual, local businesses such as Panhandle Productions, CAM-FM, Tee-Pee Trade and RV, LaScala Jewellers, and many others, have been creative and generous with their donations for the live and silent auction. Of special interest will be professional artist, Lewis Lavoie, on hand during the Black Tie Dinner. He will create a one-of-a-kind painting during the evening and be on hand to watch the highest bidder take it home.

Council approves sale of land to CAFCL By Dan Jensen

City council approved the sale of a parcel of land immediately west of the Burgess Building to Camrose Association for Community Living April 21. “We are going to qualify them (CAFCL) for Block Funding for Affordable Housing for the purchase price of $70,000 explained Camrose Mayor Norm Mayer. “In the event they are not able to use the funds in that manner the land will be sold to them for $1.” CAFCL requires title to the land so that it can proceed with the application for redistricting from the current zoning of PR (Parks and Recreation) to Institution and start construction of a barrier-free group home for people with disabilities. “We have to get this in place so we can go through the relative steps,” said CAFCL board member Dave Kotyk. CAFCL CEO Esther McDonald told City director of planning and development services Shelley Munro in an April 4 letter the project is time sensitive due to government grants and needs to be completed by March, 2015. She added the new group home would be an asset to Camrose as it would provide a facility for aging people with disabilities and it would provide employment opportunities to approximately eight to 10 additional citizens. “The area is rarely, if ever, used by the public. Maintenance of the park area is the responsibility of the City. The property is fenced and only accessible through the parking lot at CAFCL.” Munro told council that the lands CAFCL is seeking to obtain are not designated as Municipal Reserve and therefore the City is able to dispose of them, rather than take cash in lieu of MR or dedicate other lands as MR of same or equal size. Under the City’s proposed Green Space Master Plan, the City is desirous of divesting green spaces that are not integral to the City’s long term plans. The group home project was initiated by CAFCL in response by the provincial government’s decision to close the Michener Centre in Red Deer. “We don’t know how many people we would house but we have a minimum of three people from the Michener Centre that need to be considered,” said McDonald. “We are looking at suites but have not made a firm decision.” The new group home would be different than The Bethany Group’s Viewpoint facility which is located near Augustana. “Bethany tends to serve those who require more medical care,” said McDonald. “The people at the group home may be in wheelchairs but are not in medically fragile conditions.” Councillor Wayne Throndson was positive about CAFCL’s plans, noting that any assistance the City of Camrose can provide fits with the mandate of providing housing at all levels.

SPRING RITUAL

The City of Camrose released three trumpeter swans onto Mirror Lake April 24 to signify the long-awaited arrival of spring. The City will also be releasing two mute swans onto Duggan Pond once the ice clears. The City has had a swan program since the 1960s when it received two mutes from Halifax. The swans were eager to get out onto the lake after a winter spent in the swan abode behind the Max McLean Arena.

City council approves .94 per cent tax hike By Dan Jensen

Camrose residents and business property owners won’t be seeing much of a change in what they will be required to pay in taxes in 2014. Camrose City council has directed city administration to prepare a tax rate bylaw for its May 5 meeting that will result in the typical residential and non-residential property owner paying just .94 per cent more than they did in 2013. City assessor Travis Lantz presented an example to council April 22 showing that a property owner who saw his or her home’s assessment increase by 1.23 per cent to $268,000 would pay a total of $2,751, an increase of $26 from what he or she paid in 2013. He noted the bulk of that total, $2,061 would go towards municipal, while $655 would go towards education and $35 towards lodge operations. The owner of a nonresidential property who saw his or her assessment

increase by 7.4 per cent to $644,500 would, as an example, pay $9,828, an increase of $991 from what he or she paid in 2013. Of that total, $7,468 would be used for municipal purposes, $2,221 for education, and $139 for the operation of lodges. Council was able to choose from different taxation options after the City received an education requisition that was 5.07 lower than it was in 2013, a lodge requisition that was the same as it was in 2013 and increases in assessments of 1.23 per cent for residential and 7.4 per cent for non residential. “The province specifies two separate education amounts for residential and farmland and non residential,” said Lantz. “The 2014 education funding required to be collected from residential properties has decreased. The 2014 education funding required to be collected from non-residential properties has increased.” The option that was

the second most appealing to council would have increased the overall tax levy by .46 per cent for residential properties and 1.99 per cent for non-residential properties. As part of that scenario the municipal levy would have increased by 2.45 per cent for residential properties and 2.63 per cent for non residential properties to offset the MSI operating grant reduction. The education requisition would have decreased by 5.07 per cent for residential properties and stayed the same for non residential. Councillor Bill Sears expressed support for using as much tax leeway as it could in 2014 to protect the City from an education requisition increase that is expected to be 2.3 per cent or more in 2015. Councillor Wayne Throndson favoured the option that would see the increases for both residential and non property owners stay at .94 per cent. “The non-residential and the commercial owners

look at the mill rate of 10 on the residential side and 18 on the commercial side and feel that their buildings have gone up disproportionately more than the residential,” said Throndson, adding that the option that would see the overall tax levy increase by .46 per cent for residential and 1.99 per cent for nonresidential would distort the spread. “We have to look at that because at the end of the day, wherever or however you cut it, the increase on the commercial side does have or can have an impact on our commercial owners. You have to find that money somewhere and it is either passed on to tenants, or you suck it up and your rent is decreased. That is a broad topic and one that I think council has to look at to make sure that commercial property owners are treated fairly and that there is an incentive for them to come to Camrose to open a business.” Throndson said setting money aside to cover future

education requisitions is making things easier for the provincial government. “It is going to make it easier for them to hammer us on the education front.” Mayor Norm Mayer chimed in on the education requisition, saying that while the government has the right to assess the City based on operating costs, it does not have the right to be building a surplus with the education dollars. Lantz told council that administration does not have any objection to taking a broad look at its taxation policies, including the residential versus non residential splits. Councillor Agnes Hoveland said she favours the .46 per cent overall increase option for residential and the 1.99 per cent option for non-residential. “I am more comfortable with maintaining the status quo until we do have in place some policies to address the shifting between residential and non-residential,” she said.

How fair is the Fair Elections Act?

FOUNTAIN TIRE DONATION

Fountain Tire in Camrose has donated $1,000 to the Camrose DARE (Drug Abuse Resistance Education) program. Presenting the cheque to Camrose Police Service school resource officer Kelly Bauer, left, was Fountain Tire assistant manager Jason Fleck.

Parliamentary Report M.P., Crowfoot Standing Up for Middle Income Families Families and friends gathered this past weekend in our Crowfoot riding to join Christians across Canada and around the world celebrating Easter. For me, it was just what I needed: to be at home and surrounded by my family. News of Jim Flaherty’s passing came to me like it came to most of you – as a great shock. Since being appointed as Minister of State (Finance) I have had the opportunity to work with him closely and see him at his finest. I will always cherish that. Jim was a master of his files and the best Finance Minister this country has ever seen. He helped steer Canada through the worst global recession in a generation. Thanks to his determination and the strong leadership of Prime Minister Harper, the Canadian economy remains strong and middle income families are benefitting. Just yesterday, a new analysis released by the New York Times showed that middle incomes in Canada have surpassed those in the United States for the first time. It found that median after-tax income in Canada has never been higher and was higher than any of the other countries surveyed, which included the United States, France, Australia, and the United Kingdom. This study is further confirmation that our government’s low-tax plan for jobs and growth is working. We also know that Canadians’ wealth has increased dramatically, with the median net worth of Canadian families increasing by 44.5 per cent since 2005. This increase has been led by the middle class. I am pleased to report that under our Conservative government, the typical family is now paying nearly $3,400 less in taxes than it did before we took office. Unfortunately, the Liberals and NDP have already pledged that should they win the next election, they will increase the size of the federal government, which means either ballooning Canada’s national debt or increasing taxes on Canadian families. This is in direct contrast to our record of putting money back into the pockets of hard-working Canadians. Justin Trudeau has no idea what it’s like to be middle class. He believes budgets will “balance themselves”. No tough choices, no discipline, no savings are required when you’re Justin Trudeau. Unlike him, we know that good economic management requires tough decisions, a focus on priorities, and sound judgment. I am proud of our government’s strong record. We cut taxes 180 times, the number of Canadians living below the Low Income Cut-off is at its lowest level ever and after-tax disposable income has risen by 10 per cent across all income levels since 2006. It is with great satisfaction that, as a result of our government’s low tax plan, more money is where it belongs – in the pockets of Canadians and their families. This has been one of the major political goals strongly supported throughout our riding over many years, including during my own tenure as our Member of Parliament. I am pleased to be delivering on this commitment to benefit the hard-working families in Crowfoot.

We can all probably recall being young children arguing that our parents’ edicts were unfair and to which they would often reply, “Life’s not fair.” Many of us learned at an early age that arguments supported by just stating something is fair or unfair are never sufficient and are mostly suspect. When it comes to Canadian Elections, we are being promised “fairness” in new legislation that will deliver anything but fairness; and, as Canadian citizens, we had better pay close attention to the fundamental changes that are being proposed to our country. So, what do Prime Minister Harper and Minister Poilievre have in store for us under the new Fair Elections Act (Bill C-23)? In a nutshell, the Bill claims to address weaknesses in our electoral system that allow for voter fraud and to create conditions that will lead to increased voter turnout. Well, on the face of it, limiting the ability to stuff ballot boxes doesn’t sound so bad. And, who doesn’t want higher voter turnout? (One guess: Stephen Harper). Other elements of the Bill are also supposed to address election financing, limit the public role of the Chief Elections Officer and Elections Canada, and remove the Elections Commissioner from the jurisdiction of Elections Canada. Oh, and if those changes are sufficient to get you to take notice of this Bill, data collection on voters is being shared with Parties, the suggestions for appointment of election officials will be done by national parties, and campaign donation limits are significantly increased. This Bill should be of great concern to all Canadians and we should be

questioning if it really delivers on the fairness its name promises. Of particular concern is the idea of placing the initiative on political parties to encourage citizens to vote. First, parties only encourage people to vote for them, not to vote in general. If the Bill passes, Elections Canada will no longer be able to run advertising campaigns encouraging all eligible citizens to vote. Second, each party seeks votes from key demographics. Since young people, those between 18 and 35, rarely vote in comparison to other age groups, most parties have nothing to gain from courting them. Since parties get to spend a limited amount of money to encourage people to vote for them, they can be expected to seek out the more likely voters

and so to do a poor job at encouraging young people to vote. Third, and most importantly, parties are not in the business of encouraging citizens to vote. The Conservative Party, with whom the bill originates, ran negative advertisement campaigns for about ten years now. Negative ads work in two ways. They tend to create voters in citizens who do not have a preferred candidate: they choose to vote against the attacked candidate, but not to choose what might be the best candidate or policies for them. They also make citizens, who already support the party or candidate who is being attacked, stay at home on election-day. They lower the overall number of citizens voting, so that it is possible for people to increase their proportion of the vote without obtaining additional supporters. And finally, they contribute to the generally negative image we have of politicians and of politics as a dirty business in which none of us would want to get involved. For parties who use negative ads, it is advantageous to have a low voter turnout. Of course, there are many other facets to the Bill, none of which address its reason for being: the complaints about the use of robocalls and about calls misleading voters about the location of their polling stations. We can only hope that the amendments that will be suggested by other Parliamentarians (perhaps only by Senators) will be accepted so that our electoral process doesn’t become more unfair than it already is, and so that, perhaps, it just might become fairer. After all, we all stand to gain from having our voices heard.

LUCY RECEIVES HER BADGES

Murray Green, Camrose Booster

Camrose Composite High School Grade 12 student Kelsey Winterhalt and Fashion Studies educational assistant Sherill Kurylo sewed badges for Camrose and District Victim Services dog Lucy to use during her work hours. Lucy now has RCMP and Camrose Police Services badges to switch out depending on who she is representing. Kelsey helped sew velcro on 24 badges during her work experience time at CCHS.

Q.

Q.

Why choose laminate?

A.

Laminate has come a long way. And you’ll be just as surprised by laminate that looks like tile or stone. As affordable as it is versatile, laminate l i t flooring goes anywhere in your home. Perfect for any room. Laminate is the perfect choice for those rooms in your home that get a lot of traffic, like entryways and family rooms. It’s also ideal in basements where concrete slabs lack the level surface needed for hardwood. And you’ll love how easily laminate floors clean up in kitchens. Simplify your life. Laminate surfaces make it easy to maintain a great-looking floor. Their tough exteriors resist stains and moisture, providing years of unbeatable protection against scuffs and scratches. While there’s much to consider in creating the desired look, style and long-term performance of your floors, know that you’ll find beautiful flooring that’s made affordable at Wideman Carpet One. Plus, the experts at Wideman Carpet One are always available to assist you personally and answer any questions you may have.

How can I H maximize my m Disney experience? D

Only Disney imagineers allow yyou to sail with pirates, explore exotic jjungles, meet fairy-tale princesses, rrocket through space or dive deep in aan ocean all in the same day! We can make your dream vacation to a Disney destination in California, Florida, Hawaii, or even a Caribbean Disney cruise far more special. We can “show you” the other side of the Disney experience: for example the importance of botanical life to guests and Disney cast. Or arrange an unforgettable breakfast with Disney characters. We will get you on rides quicker and set you up to stay in their parks longer. We can even get you an insider peek at the secrets behind Disney Magic! We will help you plan your cruise or park visit so that you will see and do more on your trip. We know the most prized tours and experiences in California, Florida and in Oahu. We can assemble a wide variety of side-bar vacation ideas ranging from deep-sea fishing, golf, parasailing, or historic tours. How about a side tour past the homes of movie stars or recording artists? Or, a highoctane thrill in a streaking race car. Even a helicopter trip over the volcanic mountains of Hawaii if you’re up for it! Answer provided by:

Q.

Why do I need a realtor when buying a home?

A:

A reputable, professional realtor is likely to save you time and money on your purchase. As a trained realtor I can offer advice on comparable property pricing, neighbourhood trends, market conditions, and point out advantages or flaws in property offered for sale. I will be on your side to negotiate your best deal. Variables can include: price, financing, terms, date of possession and inclusion or exclusion or repairs, furniture or equipment. You will find me invaluable in providing due diligence. I can save you stress and homework. Part of my service is to be knowledgeable on local community information, school busing, utilities, zoning, etc. I will assist you on making the best choice regarding an appropriate neighbourhood for your stage in life. It will be my responsibility to ensure every aspect of the sales process from initial offer to closing. And, in the unlikely event a mistake is ever made in a transaction, as your realtor, it will be my professional responsibility to protect you against financial loss. Working with a realtor doesn’t cost – it Pays! Answer provided by:

GOALS FOR KIDS

The Camrose Kodiaks teamed up this past season with Camrose Chrysler, Norsemen Inn, Central Agencies, National Superstorage and Graham Wideman on a Goals for Kids promotion. For every goal the Kodiaks scored, each business donated $25 to a charity of its choice. With the team scoring 169 goals, the total combined amount received by the charities was $4,225. Wideman, a realtor at Central Agencies, chose to support the Camrose Special Olympics, which received a cheque for $845. Accepting the cheque from Wideman were Camrose Special Olympics representatives Preston (centre) and Carol Wideman. Camrose Kodiaks expressed appreciation to all the businesses that stepped to the plate with the promotion and indicated it is something the club would like to do again when the new season starts in the fall.

Q. A:

What’s the most important advice you can offer travellers?

Start planning your vacation much eearlier! Planning a vacation a few weeks in advance, or even a few months w iin advance, may not provide for the rright amount of time to allow you to maximize your holiday experience. Every week we deal with clients who have narrowed down their much-anticipated vacation to a specific destination, but when we attempt to finalise airline reservations, or reserve the ideal hotel, we are unable to find occupancy. Canadians, in general, tend to procrastinate when it comes to vacation planning. Other cultures, worldwide, are more likely to start their vacation plans well more than one year in advance. As a case in point, hotels in Hawaii, a preferred destination for Japanese vacationers, often have bookings for the ocean view rooms one, two or three years in advance! If you are considering a fall 2014 vacation, it is definitely not too early to book. Fall color bus trips to the Maritimes are already filling fast. Space is becoming limited for the world renowned Host Fest in Minot, North Dakota. Rooms in Disney properties and cruises at Christmas are already in scarce supply. Wherever your imagination can take you, count on us. But do it early! Answer provided by:

Q. A:

If you’re still in the work force, eventually you’re going to ask yourself: “When can I retire?” To answer this question, you’ll need to take three steps. First, you’ll have to identify your potential sources of retirement income, such as the Canada Pension Plan, Old Age Security and other government programs, as well as a workplace pension if you have one. You’ll also need to consider your personal savings, such as your RRSP or TFSA. Your second step is to determine if a gap exists between the income you can count on during retirement and the money you’ll need to support your retirement lifestyle. A professional financial advisor can help you make this calculation. Your final step is to decide how to close any retirement gap. Unless you want to delay your retirement, or scale down your retirement lifestyle, you may need to contribute more to your RRSP and other investment accounts. You also should consider working with a financial advisor to choose the appropriate mix of investments to help your money grow over time. In any case, don’t wait too long before you tackle the ‘When can I retire?’ question – the sooner you start working on it, the better your answer will be.

Q.

We need to build a new fence. What do we need to know?

A:

We can help you with every step of the process, from pre-planning to staining! The first piece of advice we can offer you is this: make absolutely certain your fence will be built entirely on your own property. Accuracy is imperative. We can give advice as to whether a construction permit will be required. Count on us for information on setting posts accurately for durability, longevity and efficiency. Often customers don’t put sufficient thought and planning in the size and type of gate needed in their fence. We’re experienced with this. Perhaps of most value to you will be advice on the type of material you will want to choose for your fence. Our service to you will include pointing out the differences in fence materials ranging from spruce to cedar to vinyl. Pressure-treated materials versus non-treated. And, this leads to selecting the right hardware and other components to complete the job. An important element will be staying on budget. We can accurately quote your fence. Our goal is to supply pricing information to you in less than 24 hours – always! Homeowners helping homeowners! That’s us! Answer provided by:

What is the best type of blind to reduce heat loss in the winter months?

Cellular shades are the most energy efficient type of shade. The attractive honeycomb design creates pockets of air that insulate windows from heat and cold to lower energy bills year round. Cellular shades also offer great sound absorption to quiet rooms with hard flooring or vaulted ceilings. They come in a wide variety of colors and opacity levels for personalized privacy and light control. Fabrics come in widths up to 144” and can also be made in a convenient side opening design for wider windows or patio doors. They are a great choice for room dividers and closet doors as well. Cordless cellular shades also provide safety solutions for homes with children or pets. The popular top down bottom up or “café style”option allows cellular shades to provide exterior view and natural light while still maintaining privacy. They can also be made in specialty shapes like arches, octagons, hexagons and triangle shaped windows. Loss of heat through skylights can be tremendous in the winter, and cellular shades will be insulating while still allowing natural light to come in. A perfect finishing touch for your cell shade is an elegant cornice. They come in a variety of wood finishes or upholstery fabrics to complement any decor. At Wideman Paint & Décor, we’ll be happy to walk you through the process of finding the right blinds for you. Drop in and see us today!

Q.

What are Lifestrength wristbands and what can they do for me?

A:

Your body’s cells naturally contain a negative charge. However, we are constantly exposed to the influence of positively charged electromagnetic signals every day from common household and workplace products (like cell phones and computers). Other elements in our environment such as dust and pet dander also carry a positive charge. Like a magnet, opposites attract, and your body pulls these positively charged ions towards itself potentially causing harm. A negative ion generator creates a “shield” of negative ions around you, deflecting those potentially harmful positive ions away from you. Lifestrength has combined 7 specific minerals charged with negative ions. These minerals are charged to a higher anion (negative ion) level and infused into the silicone of the wristbands to help restore your body to it’s natural state. Studies have concluded that anions will dramatically assist your health and wellbeing in the following ways: Emotional Stress: 25 out of 25 people tested with Seasonal Affective Depression found that anion treatment proves as effective against S.A.D. as antidepressants. Boost Immune System: Reduced incidents of headaches and sicknesses by 78% Anti- Aging: skin cells were replaced faster Better Sleep: those exposed to high levels of anions were able to sleep better Mental Performance: Anions increase the flow of oxygen to the brain resulting in higher alertness and mental energy.

Augustana dean Dr. Allen Berger presented an Alumni Citation award to former Camrose mayor Marshall Chalmers April 22 in recognition of his “extraordinary service and many contributions to building a strong relationship between Augustana and the City of Camrose.” Dean Berger and Chalmers became acquainted shortly after the dean’s arrival in Camrose in 2011. “He was the relatively new mayor and I was the brand new dean,” said Berger at Augustana’s spring soiree. “Together we inherited years of prior planning and dreaming and conversation regarding the performing arts centre and both of us concluded that despite the previous starts and stops in negotiations that this was an exciting project that we needed to move forward together. So we put our shoulders together. We also sat across from one another at the negotiation table and, with the help of many colleagues from the City, from the County, and from the University we got the job done. Throughout, Marshall was masterful in handling the local politics. In fact, I believe his leadership was instrumental in gaining City council approval for the project.” Of particular interest to Berger was Chalmers’ own personal evolution. “On many occasions he

described to me and others, both in private and publicly, his enthusiastic support for athletics in Camrose and his gradual awakening in the realization that the arts should receive equal public support.” Berger said Chalmers took on the fundraising for the performing arts centre and was instrumental in helping to arrange a $1 million naming gift for the centre’s performance chamber from Cargill. Berger said he has teased Chalmers for almost three years about his desire to have Charlie Pride as the opening act at the performing arts centre grand opening. “I am not a country and western fan, but I may soon see the light as Marshall has convinced me that Becky and I should join him and Debbie for a Charlie Pride concert on May 26 at the Jubilee auditorium. If all goes right, we will invite Charlie to Camrose.” Chalmers said it has been a tremendous pleasure for him to watch the performing arts centre come out of the ground. “I look forward, along with Debbie, to joining you (Dean Berger) in the opening.” The Augustana Citation award is presented annually to a non alum who has made a significance difference to the campus.

Rescued dogs search for a new home

Sarah Moore of Montrose Pet Clinic trims Zoey’s nails during the Canine Second Change adoption day at PetsGo Pets. Sarah trims nails for a donation to the rescue dog organization the first Saturday of every month. By Murray Green

Canine Second Chance lives by its name. Cofounders Doug Blackie and Sandra Tyacke rescue stray dogs, bring them to a healthy life and then adopt the dogs to loving families in the Leduc and Camrose area. Based near New Sarepta, Canine Second Chance kennels the dogs until they are able to be adopted to new homes. “We give the dogs shots, have them spayed or neutered, and work with them, so they are comfortable with people, especially children,” said Doug, at PetsGo Pets in Camrose. It has always been a passion for Sandra to help needy dogs. “These are dogs that

have been neglected, or abandoned,” said Doug, who started three years ago. “Every year there are dogs that are euthanized because they are in pounds and have no place to go. We started up our own rescue to give dogs a second chance on life. We get dogs from various areas. Sometimes a senior is moving into a home and can’t take the dog with him. Some are strays and some come from the northern part of Camrose County.” The organization brings a few dogs to adopt to Camrose on the first Saturday of the month. The next adoption day is on May 3 from noon to 4 p.m. “We charge a $350 fee for adoption, which covers the costs for all of the shots,

Doug Blackie, with Beau, and Sarah Moore, with Zoey, enjoy helping dogs find new homes.

and for the spayed or neutered service,” said Doug. “In some cases the adoption fee barely covers our costs for the vaccines. If a dog has an issue, such as a bad tooth, we tell the people who are adopting it, so they know and can address it in the future. In some cases we have spent over a $1,000 on a dog, but still adopted it for same fee.” Canine Second Chance is, at the moment, caring for between 25 and 30 dogs. “About 10 are ready to be adopted right now. We brought in German Shepherd puppies around Christmas time because they lost their mother, so it takes a few months to get them to the point they can be on their own,” Doug said. “With neglected or abused dogs,

we have to gain the trust of the dog before we let them be adopted. Some have had no contact with humans, or they have in a bad way. We have to be able to get that trust back in order for them to go to a new home. All they want to do is be loved again.” The dog handlers have taken Dealing with Difficult Dogs courses to give them insights on how to manage canines back into a normal life. “We went to a course in Leduc and they brought in a trainer from the United States to put on a workshop for us. It was well worth the effort to take the course,” said Doug. Montrose Pet Clinic (Beaumont) groomer Sarah Moore has volunteered with

the organization for the past three years as well. “I helped with trimming nails for the rescue dogs and in the last couple of months I have come to the adoption days to give a nail trim for a reduced rate to dogs for clients in the Camrose area for a donation to Canine Second Chance,” explained Sarah. “I was working at the place where Sandra was bringing in the dogs for grooming. Then I decided to start helping at adoption days, both in Leduc and Camrose.” For more information on how you can help or adopt, visit Facebook under groups and Canine Second Chance, and view the dogs available for adoption. You can also call Doug at 780-886-0369.

OLMP breaks ground for new meditation garden By Dan Jensen

Our Lady of Mount Pleasant School students broke ground for a new Marion Meditation Garden, Food Forest and Greenhouse Project April 22. “It is our intention that this transformed space will not only contribute to the social and emotional well-being of our students and staff, but in the process of its construction, will strengthen our relationships with other people in the community, help us to develop a deeper appreciation of our relationships with nature, enhance our science, health, foods and

religion lessons, and provide a beautiful, reflective space for spiritual renewal,” said Carol Breitkreutz, coordinator of OLMP’s Project INSPIRE, a Healthy Relationships School Grant Project. The seed for the garden, food forest and greenhouse project was planted a year ago. “When we at the school were preparing to apply for a Healthy Relationships Grant from the (Alberta Education and Alberta Health Services) Provincial School Wellness Fund we convened a group of students, staff and parents to

brainstorm about what we would like to do to strengthen relationships at OLMP School,” said Breitkreutz. “At that time we discussed the idea of creating spaces at the school where students and staff could meet for quiet conversation or personal reflection. The idea of a garden in honour of Mary, our namesake, began to germinate.” A key turning point to moving from an idea to a reality was meeting with Jared Litvak, a community volunteer who is donating his time,, ideas and experience with permaculture growing practices. Litvak

designed the garden and the food forest plan, and also introduced the idea of incorporating a Peace on Earth bench into the garden that will be constructed using recycled, non-biodegradable materials that would otherwise end up in the City of Camrose landfill. “He has already donated many hours of his time and expertise and encouraged us with his enthusiasm for this venture,” said Breitkreutz. Along with the Healthy Relationship Grant, OLMP has received assistance from the City of Camrose,

which is donating all the mulch and topsoil, Hauser Home Hardware Building Centre, which is providing building materials, and the OLMP parent and student councils. The school’s Enviroventure Club will spearhead the labour force, along with other members of the Project INSPIRE advisory and student leadership teams, students, staff, parents and community members. “The project would not be possible without the collaboration and sweat equity of these school, community groups and individuals,” said Breitkreutz.

THE LAST 5 YEARS

The Last 5 Years (starring Kimberley Denis and GaRRy Williams) rising novelist, and Cathy Hiatt, a struggling actress. Unlike most musicals, this show uses a unique storytelling approach where Jamie travels chronologically in time, from the beginning of the relationship to the end, while Cathy travels backwards in time, from the end of the relationship to the beginning. Because Jamie and Cathy travel in opposing time lines, the only direct contact between the two occurs during their engagement/wedding song in “The Next Ten Minutes.â€? This show is an intensely personal examination of the rise and fall of a relationship, the games couples’ play, and the multidimensionality of a person.

Her song “Three Chords and the Truth” was recently chosen as the closing song on the popular BBC TV series Case Histories. Her new release, Downpour, has been receiving glowing reviews across the country. When on stage she receives the most requests for “Something Beautiful,” a song that is up tempo and familiar with fans who have heard it on the radio. Keith Glass, who will be touring with Lynn, is also a singer/songwriter, multi-instrumentalist (guitar, mandolin, bass), producer, and a founding member, guitarist, and songwriter with Prairie Oyster. “I’ve known Keith for a long time and he is an amazing guitar player. I had a tour in Europe that I was going to do and he didn’t have any Prairie Oyster shows booked at the time, so he came and that’s when we started playing together,” recalled Lynn. “We have a great relationship and we have played together for about 10 years now. He is one of the greatest guitar players in the country, so that makes my show more exciting and fun. He puts energy into the show. I love playing old theatres, so I’m looking forward to playing in Camrose.” In 2008, Prairie Oyster was inducted into the Canadi-

Masons to show video on Sheppard and Higher Education Bursary Fund May 4

Camrose Dental Health Centre

Submitted

Many people may be aware that the Ross Sheppard High School in Edmonton was named after the Superintendent of Edmonton Public Schools from 1950 to 1965. However, most people will not know that Ross Sheppard competed in the Paris Olympics in 1924 and that he still holds the dominion record in the hop, step and jump event. He was also awarded the gold medal as a graduate astrophysicist from the University of Toronto. The Masons of Alberta know him to have been the Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of Alberta in 1959 and that he began the Masonic Higher Education Bursary Fund. The bursary fund has been in operation for 55 years and is the second largest contributor of bursaries to students in Alberta after the Government of Alberta. The MHEBF currently provides 30 bursaries of $5,000 each to qualified students who lack the funds to pursue their post secondary education. The bursaries are available to all Alberta students and no masonic affiliation is necessary. In addition, two bursaries of $7,000 are given to students studying pharmacy or medicine. This year, at their third annual open house, the members of the Camrose Masonic Lodge will be showing a video about Ross Sheppard and the Masonic Higher Education Bursary Fund. There will brief explanations about the Camrose Masonic Lodge, the Camrose Chapter of the Order of the Eastern Star, the Royal Arch Masons and the Battle River Shrine Club. The open house will be at the Masonic Hall at 5021-48 Street at 2 p.m. on Sunday, May 4. Members will be available to answer questions and refreshments will be served. For more information, call David Roth at 780- 281-2216.

Sunparlour Players bring exciting show to Bailey Theatre By Murray Green

Hot on the heels of a new album called The Living Proof, Sunparlour Players is currently on a tour through western Canada. The Toronto multi-instrumental roots/ rock duo has circled Saturday, May 3, for a stop at the Bailey Theatre as part of the Rose City Roots Music Society series. Sunparlour Players launched its fourth fulllength album and quickly hit the road for an extensive tour. Andrew Penner on vocals, guitars, banjo, bass, organ foot pedal, percussion, and Michael “Rosie” Rosenthal on drums, glockenspiel, banjo, bass, shouts, keyboards) provide a full sound with two members. They have used everything from shredding guitars, pounding drums and searing synth lines to howling vocals, ragged banjo and even a spoken word recipe track to expand their sound, embracing folk, electronic and punk influences. The high energy band with strong vocals reminds people of a local band. The Sunparlour Players bring it all on stage in the same fashion as the Camrose band Punch Drunk Cabaret. Sunparlour Players has toured with Mumford and Sons and Blue Rodeo. On stage, Sunparlour Players takes audiences through a roller coaster of emotion, thunderous stomping one moment and delicate strumming the next, always backed by boundless energy. Penner and Rosenthal (individually and as the band) also score music for film and television (including Small Town Murder Songs, One Week and Lost Girl). Penner, won a 2013 Dora Award for

outstanding sound design and composition for the stage production BOBLO. The opening song “Soapbox” is a tipping off point, a jump in a getting things off your chest in a doing it now kind of way. “Bless This City” is significant song for a few reasons. Andrew grew up on a tomato farm just outside of Leamington, Ontario, which recently suffered an economic blow with the Heinz plant closing. “Living so near to Detroit and Windsor you see the effect the car industry collapse had and now more globalization effects are hitting even closer to home,” explained Penner. Also, Rosie was born and raised in Toronto and the band as a whole realizes that there are many challenges that face the city, so the lyrics “who runs this town?” are especially meaningful. ‘Sunparlour Preserves’ are so popular they now have a dedicated track on the new album (narrated by Hugh Oliver) – “How To Make Ginger Bourbon Apple Butter.” Growing up on a farm in a southern Ontario Mennonite community, Andrew knows canning and makes all the preserves. In the beginning, before the band had any wares to sell, Andrew was making mustard one day and thought it was a good idea to raffle it off at the next show. It became an immediate hit and is now sold at all shows. It has earned them a sponsorship from Bernardin Canning Jars. You don’t always know what to expect from the Sunparlour Players, but that adds excitement to the show. And, they know how to entertain.

By Dan Jensen

Camrose city council received a street light investment buyout offer from FortisAlberta at its committee of the whole meeting April 21. The Alberta-based energy company is prepared to pay the City of Camrose $3,162,234 to move from the current rate 33 no-investment agreement under which the City is billed for all street light painting, vandalism and vehicle inspections to a rate 31 investment agreement under which FortisAlberta would be responsible for all of those costs, as well as the replacement of glass and controls.

“If we don’t go with rate 31 we are going to eventually start billing you for the replacement poles. Some of the lights should have been changed out in 2005.”

The streetlights are currently owned and operated by FortisAlberta. FortisAlberta stakeholder relations manager Rick Burden told council that the City is looking at approximately $9 million in future capital costs if it remains on the current rate 33. “Rate 33 covers such things as the replacement of failed lamps, ballasts and inspections,” said Burden. “What is doesn’t cover is things, which you are going to be billed for, which are all other maintenance replacement costs, due to vehicle impact, vandalism or age.” Specifically for street light investment, the maximum investment per fixture is $2,198. Burden said the $3.1 million streetlight investment buyout offer is very fair to the City. “If we don’t go with rate 31 we are going to eventually start billing you for the replacement poles. Some of the lights should have been changed out in 2005.” FortisAlberta estimates that about 40 per cent of the street light inventory

in Camrose is between 33 and 54 years old, and that the total cost of replacing all those lights would be between $5.5 and $5.7 million. The monthly maintenance fee the City of Camrose would pay to Fortis with the new rate would increase from the current $23,000 to $57,000. City manager Damian Herle told council that City administration has given the buyout offer some consideration and will be presenting a report in the near future. “I would anticipate that some of the discussions in terms of this matter with council’s consent would be in camera,” said Herle, adding that the franchise fee agreement with FortisAlberta is set to run out in January of 2015. The replacement program would give the City of Camrose the option of going from low pressure sodium lights to LED lights, although the cost would be extra and the longevity of the LED lights is not yet known. The City would also be billed extra if it wanted to put all the wiring for the poles underground. “When we do replacements it is light for light,” said a FortisAlberta representative who accompanied Burden. “If there are any alterations to that replacement then there is a conversation between the municipality and FortisAlberta to see how that cost can be worked in. The cost would be picked up for going from an overhead street lighting to an underground. That could happen absolutely but there is a cost that would then be associated to the municipality.” The cost to the City of painting a single light would be in the neighbourhood of $60. The City of Camrose is the only municipality in the FortisAlberta service area that has 100 per cent rate 33 lights. “Everybody else has gone to rate 21 over time,” said Burden. “You guys are the last ones.” Burden said FortisAlberta has always had a good relationship with the City of Camrose. “A lot of our employees live here and a lot of the things for which we should have been billing we haven’t.”

Camrose seniors’ society active at Mirror Lake Centre Camrose Seniors’ Coalition

Currently sharing digs with City of Camrose administrative staff in a temporary arrangement while the new City Hall is being constructed, Camrose and District Senior Centre Society clubs are still very active at the Mirror Lake Centre. In fact, the 11th annual Polka Fest will take place in the auditorium at the Mirror Lake Centre next month, over the weekend of May 30 and 31. The annual event has been at the Centre for some time, attracting people from all over Alberta and further afield. Two outstanding bands – County Squires and John Bandura and Friends –

will provide the music on an hourly rotating basis. Friday dancing goes from 7 p.m. to 11 p.m., and starts up again on Saturday at 2 p.m. A buffet meal at 5 p.m. provides a change of pace, then dancing picks up again at 6, and goes to 11. Tickets are available for either the Friday, the Saturday or both days, from Bernie at 780-672-4932 or John at 780-672-8407. Seniors do like to kick up their heels! In addition to the Polka Fest, Camrose and District Senior Centre Society clubs include Wednesday Night Dance, Wild Rose Dance, and the Rose City Square Dance club. All three are popular

ways for seniors to have fun and keep in good shape. Other activities that help seniors keep physically active include Pickle Ball, Floor Curling, Floor Shuffleboard and Alberta 55-plus. But that’s not all! Seniors also keep their minds sharp, their fingers agile, and their social connections strong by participating in the scrabble club, pool, Wednesday bridge, Thursday bridge, cribbage, canasta or stick rummy. To some extent, the range of possible clubs is limited only by the interests of the 385 members (as of late 2013), a number that keeps increasing every year.

Senior Centre Society members definitely help keep the Mirror Lake Centre pleasant to the eye. The Cam-Roses, another club connected with the Society, are well-known for tastefully decorating the Mirror Lake Centre for special and everyday events, and for joining with other volunteers to operate a very welcoming reception desk. Since 2007, seniors’ activities at the Mirror Lake Centre have been organized entirely by volunteers. The executive of the Camrose and District Senior Centre Society consists of president Wilf Maertens-Poole; vice-president Darlene Van Haitsma;

secretary Iris Baker; and treasurer Rosella Snopek. These people work tirelessly, along with the club coordinators, to make the Mirror Lake Centre a wonderful place for seniors. Annual membership in the Camrose and District Senior Centre Society is kept low at $15, which entitles members to join any club they desire. The Society offers great food, good friends and good exercise for everyone. Call 780-672-7022 between 10 a.m. and noon for more information, or check the website: www.camrosesenorcentre.com. And don’t forget the Polka Fest at the end of May!

That’s the date that has been set aside for the third Camrose Men’s Conference. “We’re going to be covering a myriad of topics including work/life balance, mental health, physical health and healthy relationships,” said conference planning committee chair Clarence Hastings, an employee of Camrose and District Support Services, which is hosting the conference in partnership with Alberta Works, Alberta Health Services (Addictions and Mental Health) and Camrose Primary Care Network. “Males will be encouraged to create working and personal networks and have the chance to enhance their awareness of services and resources that exist within the community.” Keynote speaker for the conference will be David Irvine, one of Canada’s most respected voices on leadership and organizational culture. Author of five best-selling books, Irvine has more than 30 years of experience as an entrepreneur workshop facilitator, psychotherapist, professional speaker and advisor to executives. He’ll provide practical perspectives on living a life in accord with your values, share from his own experience his perspective on transforming depression from the stigma of secrecy and shame to the gift of an enriched, authentic life, and provide

The last Camrose Men’s Conference had about 50 participants.

hands on methods for finding greater meaning and significance in life. “David is one of the preeminent speakers in his field,” said Hastings. “The fact that he is coming to Camrose is just phenomenal.” Irvine believes that in order to live a life beyond success as defined by others we need to stop and reach for a deeper more sustaining path that comes from the voice within. “Not listening or responding to this inner, authentic voice is costly – to our health and to our souls,” said Irvine. “We need to step away from the fray and expectations of others, look within and reach for a renewed and sustaining path to the authentic self – the path to authentic success, the path of meaning.” The conference will also feature a presentation

by Powerful Play Experiences creator and facilitator Robert Manolson, who will challenge participants to not only reflect on what led to their chosen work, but also to adopt an attitude of openness to what they might want to do in the next phase of their lives. “He will encourage participants to commit to fun and play as a part of daily routines with family and friends as an essential element for the overall health and wellness of mind, body and soul,” said Hastings. A $250 value, the conference is being offered at just $50 per person until May 12 and $65 per person after that. “The funding we have received has been able to offset the cost,” said Hastings. Information provided at the conference is expected

to assist employers with employment retention, reduction of safety risks due to mental health conditions, and a better balanced workforce in healthier work sites. “We would really like for business owners, whether it is the City of Camrose, County or large organizations, to let their male employees attend,” said Hastings. “Having these two presenters in Camrose is an awesome opportunity for men to learn about authentic leadership. We want to make it not only a day of personal development, but of professional development.” The conference is the only one just for men in the province. Past attendance has been in the 40 to 50 range, a number that Hastings would like to increase this time. “We have made it central so that guys can attend

wherever they live, whether it is in Fort McMurray or Lethbridge,” said Hastings. “We want to make it as local as possible but it is not just a Camrose men’s conference.” The Camrose Men’s Conference was initiated to provide an opportunity for men to get together and talk about shared experiences. “The first one was called Leave No Man Behind,” said Hastings. “The impetus behind the title was that we didn’t want guys to be left without the information to take care of themselves. You can say that men are doing okay but the statistics about mental health and suicide don’t always prove that out.” An extra feature of this year’s conference will be the MAN VAN, which will be set up in the Norsemen Inn parking lot, where it will be offering Prostage Apecific Antigen (PSA) testing to men over the age of 40. The PSA test is a simple blood test that helps in the early detection of prostate cancer. “The MAN VAN is equipped with comfortable leather seats and a flatscreen TV to create an environment where men can relax, while taking charge of their health,” said Hastings. “It comes with the nurses and a lab so everything is right there. I can’t imagine sitting down and watching golf highlights while I am getting my prostate tested.” Anyone wishing to register for the conference is encouraged to contact Hastings at 780-672-0141.

Watch for purple martins with bands

Diabetic team lacing up for Iceland run

By Murray Green

Camrose and area residents are asked to be on the lookout for purple martin birds with a geolocator on their right legs. In 2012, the Camrose Wildlife Stewardship Society banded 51 birds from the Camrose area and the Ellis Bird Farm near Lacombe to track the flight patterns of the local purple martins. “We used data collected from the geo-locaters that are like little backpacks for the birds. It gives us an understanding of their migration patterns and what they do the other eight months of the year,” said Dr. Glen Hvenegaard of the University of Alberta, Augustana Campus during the Purple Martin Festival last June. The professor of environmental science and geography is asking for people to report sightings so they can search for answers. “It is not just a project to have pretty birds in your backyard, but to help birds that are in serious decline,” explained Dr. Hvenegaard. “Some species of birds are declining one or two per cent each year. At that rate it doesn’t take long to make an impact.” With the weather warming, the birds are arriving daily. The high cost of the geo-locaters at $200 makes the retrieval rate that much more important. One Camrose bird had a long migration route of a total round trip of over 22,000 kilometres. One of the first returning backpacking martins was a bird that had been caught, banded and outfitted at the Ellis Bird Farm after spending our winter months in the Amazon rain forest in the state of Para, Brazil. The bird averaged almost 800 kilometres a day in 15 days, which is remarkable. “We can uncover all sorts of information now. We need more geolocaters to gather more information,” said Hvenegaard. If you spot a purple martin with a band on its right leg, email University of Alberta, Augustana Campus professor Dr. Glen Hvenegaard at glen. hvenegaard@ualberta.ca and give the location of the bird.

Laurel Nadon, The Camrose Booster Alexandra Soanes, 14, and her mother Janet Hatch are preparing for a 10 km run in Reykjavic, Iceland in August. Soanes was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes at the age of 11 and the run will raise funds for the Canadian Diabetes Association. By Laurel Nadon The Camrose Booster

A local teen and her mom will lace up their shoes for a 10 km race in Iceland this summer to raise funds for the Canadian Diabetes Association. Alexandra Soanes, 14, was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes in August 2011 at the age of 11. “Alexandra went from functioning normally without thinking about what she’s eating, to four insulin injections a day and constant blood sugar monitoring,” said her mother Janet Hatch. “There is constant juggling with activity and daily events, which is a huge burden for a teenage girl. It was a big loss of freedom.” Soanes, however, has refused to let the disease prevent her from being active. She joined a hockey team shortly after the diagnosis and is active in intramural sports, as well as horse riding and outdoor soccer. She requires about 10 finger pokes per day to check blood sugar levels and regular mathematical calculations before eating. “Diabetes doesn’t have to stop you, but it does change things,” Hatch said. “I believe that everything happens for a reason. We’re constantly looking for there to be a way for this to help her to grow and be an advocate.”

For this reason, the mother and daughter duo will take part in a 10 km race in Reykjavic, Iceland on August 23 with the goals of finishing in under one hour and raising funds for the Canadian Diabetes Association. Soanes said her goal is to raise the $12,200 required for both to participate. Some of this is travel costs, with the majority going to the association. “It’s for a really good cause and it goes towards a cure,” Soanes said, noting that she chose the Iceland run versus runs in Scotland, Athens, Hawaii and the Cayman Islands. “Iceland has lots of really cool sites to see and it’s a really good climate for running.” Soanes competed in the 5 km Ole Spring Runoff race in Camrose two years ago, and this will be her first 10 km race. Hatch has run half marathons in the past and will compete in a half marathon in Canmore in May to benefit the Canadian Breast Cancer Association. The pair have done a few practice runs so far, but most training will wait until the snow melts. They have already raised over $6,000 to date and are hoping to get even closer to their goal with a silent auction on May 3 at 7 p.m. at the Canadian Brewhouse in Camrose.

Hatch said that the race experience will be life-altering for her daughter. “For Alexandra, one of the biggest concerns I have is she’s so independent and reluctant to tell people that she has this disease and is dependent on insulin,” Hatch said, noting that locating silent auction items has forced her daughter to tell her story. Symptoms that Soanes experienced before diagnosis included weight loss, infections, general unwellness, stomach pain, vision impairment and thirst. With three younger siblings, the diagnosis also raised concerns for their health. There is a 30 per cent chance that siblings will also be diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes. “We were all sort of shocked. It can be so isolating and stressful for everyone in the family and the more community members who are identified with facing the same thing, the less lonely it is,” Hatch said. Soanes said that she hadn’t heard of the disease before her diagnosis. “I thought it was something you got from eating too much sugar,” she said. “It was kind of scary because I thought it was some rare disease. That’s why I wanted to raise more awareness of it.” She said she wants other youth to know that diabetes

is really common and people diagnosed with the disease can still be healthy and have good lives. “It changed my life because now my mom and I talk a lot more because we have to talk about blood sugars,” Soanes said. “I’ve learned a lot about science and other diseases. I’ve realized how many other people have diabetes.” The diagnosis also altered her career path as she now plans to pursue a career in medicine. The cause of Type 1 diabetes remains unknown. It is not caused by eating too much sugar, and is not preventable. The current thought is that Type 1 diabetes occurs when the body’s immune system destroys the cells that make insulin, which is required by the body to regulate blood sugar levels. About 300,000 Canadians have Type 1 diabetes. Insulin injections were first successfully used on human patients in 1922. “A diagnosis in my grandparents’ generation was a death sentence,” Hatch said. “Being able to support diabetes in this way and travel together is something that we’re proud and so excited to be a part of.” To purchase $10 tickets for the silent auction or to learn how to pledge online, contact Hatch at janny. mary@hotmail.com

Your next power bill $ could increase by 25 Power customers in Alberta are bracing themselves for a shock next month. Electricity prices are expected to jump 30 to 40 percent. “We are going to see a price spike,” says utilities consumer advocate Rob Spragins. “It’s almost a guarantee at this point. We want to let consumers know this is coming.” The average homeowner will see about a $25 increase on their May electricity bill. The spike is being sparked by the Alberta Electric System Operator announcing several planned power plant outages and the shutdown of a major transmission line west of Edmonton that transports power from several major coal-fired generating stations in the Wabamun Lake and Keephills area. The outage announcements immediately caused the market price of electricity to spike. Premier Dave Hancock is looking into the issue. Maybe the premier should be looking at what’s happening in the Camrose region where there’s a choice for consumers that’s much less expensive than the big suppliers. Camrose Energy Corp. can provide electricity to your home at tremendous savings. Electricity prices are on the rise

Latin guitar sensation visits Bailey May 2 By Murray Green

The Oscar Lopez Trio will be appearing at the Bailey Theatre in Camrose for one show on Friday, May 2. Oscar is one of the most brilliant artists and consummate performers of our time. Although he is now a Canadian, he has captured the sounds of his ancestors from

Camrose Energy bills directly to the end user. There are no expenses for paper or postage. They send an email notice five days prior to your bill being due. This notice will tell you that in five days X amount of money will be automatically withdrawn from your bank account to the credit of Camrose Energy. At this time you can log on and view your account online. But what about all the other charges you see on your power bills? The wire service provider is responsible for the delivery of electricity, which can account for 50 to 67 percent of your bill, depending on where you live. “We agree that this amount is huge,” says Camrose Energy’s Denise Hawkins. “We would like to see the government have a look at this, especially with the costs of these new power lines that are now being built.” “It’s surprising how many people don’t fully understand their electricity bills,” says Denise’s husband Russell. “Half of an electricity bill is regulated, the prices going for distribution and delivery charges from the wire provider. The other half is unregulated with charges going to the retailer. This is where Camrosians have a choice.” Santiago, Chile. Mixed with North American favourites, he has created a different sound to familiar songs. Oscar is a major performer on the folk, jazz, and roots music festival circuits. He consistently has audiences in the a palms of his hands with his acoustic guitar mastery. “I came to Camrose to visit my friend Rocky Viens and he told me about the Bailey Theatre and encouraged me to play there. I had a tour and thought

I should do what I can to help the theatre to survive. I’m very excited to play at the old historic building and I hope everyone comes out to hear music and have a good time,” said Oscar. Never afraid to venture into different genres, Lopez easily incorporates jazz, blues, and even pop sensibilities into his music. But one thing remains constant: letting the passion and fire within his soul loose through his fingertips and onto the guitar

Another big reason Camrose Energy is able to keep costs down is because it is a home-based business. The overhead, as you can well appreciate, is very low.

Giving back through the Community Alliance Program If saving a bunch of money isn’t reason enough to make the switch to Camrose Energy, consider that it contributes 10 percent of profits to local charities. “Electricity is an essential service,” says Russell and Denise Russell. “Profits shouldn’t be sent to faraway shareholders. Profits should be kept local, bettering the community. That’s what we do.” “I have done fundraising for different causes prior to us starting Camrose Energy,” continues Denise. “I have always had a passion about giving back to the community. We really like the thought of everybody having the ability to help their community by just paying their electricity bill. I love sitting at a customer’s kitchen table and explaining the charitable component of our company. They get this look on their face and then wonder why they wouldn’t sign up with us.” Camrose Energy donates 10 percent of its profits to one of three local organizations. You, as the customer, decide where you want the 10 percent of your bill to go: Battle River Watershed Alliance, Canadian Mental Health Association or Habitat for Humanity. This 10 percent goes directly to helping people in our community. “We’re grateful that our Community Alliance Program is helping provide much needed money to these organizations,” Russell says. If you want to save on your power bill and give back to the community, go online now and register with Camrose Energy. Or, if you have questions, call Russell or Denise. They would be delighted to talk with you.

RUSSELL AND DENISE HAWKINS info@camroseenergy.com www.camroseenergy.com Denise’s Cell: 780-781-4115 Russell’s Cell: 780-781-4116 strings. Oscar has earned two Juno awards and has had multiple nominations. The Calgary musician started playing and writing when he was 17 years old. He recorded his first album in 1973. “The music on Aspasionado symbolizes my passion for music over the last 10 years. Music still brings me alive and it is an extension of my soul. My mission in life is to share my music with others for their enjoyment,” said Oscar.

Oscar sees his music as an extension of his soul and life experiences. “My albums are the product of this internal and external collaboration,” he said. “I revel in the thrill of watching an album take form.” Performers who will be accompanying Oscar are Louis Tovar on percussion and Ricardo Mavriv on rhythm guitar. Advance tickets are available at the Bailey Box Office or online.

2014 Chev Cruze Impressive styling and fuel efficiency

Graeme Davidson By Dan Jensen

The 2014 Chevrolet Cruze at McClellan Wheaton Chevrolet Buick GMC goes beyond your typical compact car. Its modern styling on the exterior hints at the groundbreaking vehicle inside — one so efficient, so safe and so technologically advanced, it redefines the category. Go further

The Chevrolet Cruze takes you farther for less. The standard six-speed manual transmission in Cruze LS helps achieve a highway fuel consumption rating of just 5.4 litres per 100 km. The available six-speed automatic transmission has a highway fuel consumption rating of 5.6 L/100 km. Cruze Eco takes efficiency to the next level, thanks to its advanced aerodynamics and a 1.4L turbocharged ECOTEC® engine. Its performance credentials include 138 horsepower and 148 lb.ft. of torque, helping it accelerate with authority. And yet its fuel efficiency is even more impressive, with a 4.6 litres per 100 km highway fuel consumption rating. The new 2014 Clean Turbo Diesel gets the best highway fuel efficiency of

any gasoline or diesel car in Canada at 4.2 litres per 100 km. The engine also produces 151 horsepower and 264 lb.-ft. of low-end torque. Cruze Clean Turbo Diesel emissions meet the very strict Tier 2 Bin 5 Emissions Standards — a new generation of stringent clean diesel standards. Its technology includes exhaust gas recirculation, selective catalyst reduction, a particulate filter and advanced fuel system components. The Cruze Clean Turbo Diesel has also been designed to reduce the noise and vibration often associated with earlier generation diesel cars. Make an impression

The Chevrolet Cruze has automotive critics salivating over its exterior design and pleasing proportions. Centred around the strong, attention-grabbing grille, its swept-back headlights lead the eye across sculpted fenders, around the sides and back again. And don’t forget that those curves, lines and angles do more than just please the eye and turn heads. They improve aerodynamics; in the end optimizing fuel efficiency and help-

ing you get the most out of every litre. Turn up the volume with the RS Appearance Package, available on 2LT and LTZ. On the exterior, this package includes unique front and rear fascias, rocker mouldings, a rear spoiler and 18-inch split five-spoke aluminum wheels, giving your Chevrolet Cruze the look to match the feeling behind the wheel. Even the fog lights are enhanced with sleek chrome accents. Room to fit your life

It’s categorized as a compact, but that won’t be your impression once you get inside Cruze. Its spacious interior not only has more passenger room than most of its competitors, it also beats them in cargo space. And Cruze is smart about how to use all that space with 60/40 split-folding rear seats so you can find room for larger items. Refinements such as soft-touch interiors, rich colours and available heated leather-appointed front seats give Cruze a premium feel. And you’ll enjoy a quiet ride with triple-sealed doors and a laminated windshield – it’s just one of 30 acoustical

treatments designed to help keep outside noise outside. Upgrade to the RS Appearance Package, available for LT and LTZ, and you’ll make your Cruze even sportier, with a chrome-accented instrument cluster. Chevrolet MyLink

With Chevrolet MyLink™,12 all your favourites are in one place, conveniently displayed on the 178 mm diagonal colour touch-screen. You can stream music, get directions, access your personal contacts and more. Just connect your compatible smartphone via Bluetooth® wireless technology or the USB port.13 Use voice controls, steering wheel controls and the touch-screen to access features such as hands-free calling and texting, SiriusXM Satellite Radio™,14 and all your own MP3s. Safety

Cruze comes equipped with an impressive slate of standard safety features, including the StabiliTrak® Electronic Stability Control System with traction control. On all slippery surfaces, StabiliTrak helps keep Cruze on the road by detecting the difference between the path being steered and the direc-

tion the vehicle is actually travelling. It then uses the brakes and, if necessary, adjusts engine torque to help keep your Cruze on track. Cruze was the first car in its class with 10 standard airbags, and there’s still no other car in its class that offers more. Helping to protect you and your passengers are frontal side-impact and knee airbags for the driver and front passenger. A highstrength steel safety cage and roof crush resistance that outperform requirements add to the integrity of the passenger compartment. In the event of a collision, crucial information will be sent to the OnStar® Command Centre via the OnStar’s Automatic Crash Response.17 Trained Advisors can take advantage of GPS technology to determine your exact location and request emergency assistance – even if you’re unable to respond. It’s part of the OnStar Directions and Connections Plan, standard for six months. You can see the new 2014 Cruze at McClellan Wheaton Chevrolet Buick GMC at 3850-48 Avenue, Camrose.

Chris Morgan receives Intertek scholarship

Chris Morgan By Murray Green

Former Camrose resident Chris Morgan, a junior at Montana Tech, The University of Montana, was one of a select few to receive a prestigious new scholarship and internship from Intertek, a leading provider of quality and safety solutions for a wide range of industries around the world. The new program, launched in January, was tailored to undergraduate students pursuing studies in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) in the United States and Canada. The scholarship winners received an award of up to $10,000 USD and paired with an internship at an Intertek office. The program, designed to help inspire students to pursue careers in engineering, was named the number one unique scholarship to apply for in 2014. Chris was born and raised in Camrose and moved to Edmonton in August 2011, where he attended the Northern Alberta Institute of Technology (NAIT) and received his technical diploma in Petroleum Engineering in May 2013. He currently resides in Butte, Montana, where he attends Montana Tech, The University of Montana. He is in the process of completing his third of fourand-a-half years, majoring in Petroleum Engineering. He will be interning at the Edmonton office. In the creation of this new scholarship and internship program, Intertek intends to promote STEM education and to help inspire students to pursue careers in engineering. Additionally, two of the five scholarships were awarded to female candidates, promoting women’s advancement in engineering. The students were selected by a committee of Intertek team members from applications across the United States and Canada. Continued on page 40

Hazel Viola Dingman Hazel Dingman of Camrose, AB, formerly of Ohaton, passed away on Wednesday, April 16, 2014 at the age of 87 years. Hazel was the sixth of eleven children born in the Berke farm home one mile north of Kelsey, AB. She grew up in the 1930s, learning how to cook and bake at a young age, utilizing the farm’s milk, cream, butter, eggs and meat. It was a necessity to have a large garden, and picking wild berries was a family outing. Her family were all musical – Mom could play a harmonica and button accordian. She learned how to sew and quilt. This lifestyle continued when she married Harold Dingman, a farmer, of the Albury District on November 5, 1947. They were blessed with eight children – four nurse daughters and four farmer sons. She absolutely loved the everyday chores of farm life while raising the family. For years she ran her children to school sports, ball, hockey, Explorers, CGIT, Tyro, ballet, gun club, Cubs, Scouts, 4-H and swimming lessons. She taught Sunday School at Kelsey United Church, was CGIT (Canadian Girls in Training) leader for 12 years, belonged to UCW (United Church Women), was a charter member of Heatherbrae Women’s Institute and was employed for eight years at Camrose Co-op. For 14 winters, she and Harold enjoyed their Arizona home. Summer months was a time of family fun at Pigeon Lake. All but Mom could water ski! Our fun continued on into the evening with potato salad, green jelly salad, roasted hot dogs, beans and marshmallows with a huge bonfire at the water’s edge. Also, the family enjoyed many picnics and ballgames at the Dingman grounds at Dried Meat Lake. Hazel always had a song to sing, a beautiful smile and a laugh ready to burst. She loved and supported her family, grandchildren, step-grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Her coffee pot was always on for a good visit and she would serve homemade cake, cookies, bread and jam. She always had two dozen cupcakes and a card ready for each birthday. After Harold’s death in 1999, she transitioned to the Hilltop home of daughter Berneice, just one mile south of the family farm.

Tore Lindstrom It is with great sadness that we announce that Tore Lindstrom of Meeting Creek, AB passed away in the Stettler Hospital on Monday, April 21, 2014 at 83 years of age. Farming was his passion and he spent his lifetime doing what he loved. Retirement was not in his plans.

He will be forever loved and forever missed. Tore is lovingly remembered by his wife Marilyn; son Douglas (Caren) and their children Chloe and Seth; daughter Anna (Tyler) Muri and their children Anders, Maren and Eva; sisters Louise Fiske, Eunice (Al) Coley, Janet (Ken) Ogston; and sisterin-law Fern Lindstrom. He will also be missed by his wife’s siblings Robert (Ruth) Steeves, Larry (Bev) Steeves, Walter (Lois) Steeves, Del (Celeste) Steeves and Joy (Tom) Holder; sister-in-law Ruth Steeves; and numerous nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by his parents Seth and Ragnhild Lindstrom; brothers Gust, Fred (Jean) and Don; and brothersin-law Don Fiske, Don (Vivien) Steeves and Richard Steeves; and his wife’s parents Jack and Laurine Steeves. Funeral services for the late Tore Lindstrom were held on Monday, April 28, 2014 at Stettler Funeral Home with Pastor Don Wudel officiating. A family interment will take place at Meeting Creek Cemetery at a later date with Pastor Steve Elias. To send or view condolences to Tore’s family, please visit www.stettlerfuneralhome.com.

Ernest Gordon Hoyme December 4, 1920 – April 20, 2014 Ernest Gordon Hoyme of Camrose passed away on Sunday, April 20, 2014 at the age of 93 years. Ernest Gordon Hoyme, second son of Gustav Edward Hoyme and Alma Lyseng, was born on December 4, 1920 in his parents’ farm home in the New Salem district. After completing school in that district, Ernest spent one year at Camrose Lutheran College and two years at Olds School of Agriculture, graduating in 1939. Ernest then farmed with his father until 1945 when he bought his own half-section of land. On June 29, 1947, Ernest married Margaret Doreen Jacobson of the Hampton District. They built a home and started their farm life together. Born to this union was one daughter Marilyn; and two sons Nolan and Marvin. Ernest and Doreen farmed together there for 36 years until they bought and moved into a house in Camrose in 1983 where they resided for 28 years. Even during those 28 years, Ernest spent much of his time out on the farm continuing to help harvest until he was 90 years of age. Ernest was an active lifetime member of the United Farmers of Alberta. He helped build the telephone cooperative in his farming area. Ernest was one of the first directors of the Co-op Store in Camrose and was active on the church council of Messiah Lutheran Church. Ernest was an avid farmer and loved his chosen career. He was very innovative: adapting and building such things as a bale elevator, bale stooker and a cleaning system in his hog barn. He also was very proud of being a Registered Seed Grower in Alberta. In July 2011, Ernest and Doreen moved into Deer Meadows in Camrose where they enjoyed the company and support of so many good friends and Deer Meadows staff for two-and-a-half years. Ernest passed away in his home at the age of 93 years on Easter Sunday, April 20, 2014. Left to cherish Ernest’s memory are his wife Doreen; daughter Marilyn Norton (Dave); sons Nolan (Ricky Lynn) Hoyme and Marvin (Cindy) Hoyme; grandchildren Myles (Sherry) Norton, Andrew (Deanna) Norton, Karleen (Calvin) Norton-Breitkreuz, Jason (Lauren) Hoyme, Tyler Hoyme, Cheryl (Zach) Hillman, Mark Hoyme and Ryan Hoyme; 14 great-grandchildren; as well as brothers Konard, Arnold (Edith), Clifford (Dorothy) and Melford (Donna); and one sister Almira Mann. He was predeceased by his parents and one brother Orin. A Funeral Service was held at 3:00 p.m. on Saturday, April 26, 2014 from Messiah Lutheran Church with Rev. David Eriksson officiating. Interment has taken place in Valleyview Cemetery, Camrose. Memorial contributions are gratefully accepted to Messiah Lutheran church or to The Bethany Group.

Police stop impaired driver April 25

At 12:15 a.m. while on routine patrol police stopped and checked a motorist in the area of 54 Street and 49 Avenue. While speaking with the 38-year-old male driver police determined the man was under the influence of alcohol and subsequently arrested the man for Impaired Operation of a Motor Vehicle. The man was transported to the police office where he provided two adequate samples of his breath which registered readings of 140 mg per cent times two. Police charged the man with Over .08 mg per cent and Impaired Operation of a Motor Vehicle. Checks on a 20-yearold male passenger determined he had an outstanding arrest warrant under the Gaming and Liquor Act, which prompted his arrest. Upon searching the man police located a small quantity of cannabis marihuana. The 20-year-old man was charged with Unlawful Possession of Cannabis Marihuana.

AHS encourages us to think about end of life care Conversations Matter, launched by Alberta Health Services (AHS) to coincide with National Advance Care Planning Day, provides information on advance care planning and an interactive online tool designed to help individuals determine their personal preferences in the event that they become incapable of consenting to or refusing treatment or other care. “The fundamental principle behind advance care

planning is the right to make informed decisions about your care today and for the future,” said Dr. Verna Yiu, AHS’ vice-president quality and chief medical officer. The interactive online tool, soon to be available through the AHS mobile app, has been created to help Albertans understand advance care planning before they enter into the health care system. “We know having these conversations and document-

ing your health care wishes can be difficult, but we know it is invaluable for families who have gone through this process. It brings comfort to families and helps ease the burden of making those tough decisions because they already know what their loved one’s wishes and values are,” says Dr. Yiu. Calgary resident Deb Cook says knowing her mother’s end-of-life wishes were being fulfilled created

a sense of peace and was “worth its weight in gold.” “It made it so much easier on all of us because we were doing what she wanted us to do,” says Cook, whose mother developed Alzheimer’s disease in 2008 and died three years later. “One evening, soon after the diagnosis, our family sat together with mom and walked through her wishes. In the end, it took the stress off of everybody. Her end of life was a celebration.”

Cook says she was able to cherish the last days of her mother’s life rather than be consumed by guilt and stress wondering if she was making the right health care decisions on behalf of her mother. “There is a stigma around talking about end-oflife care,” said Dr. Yiu, Physicians, patients, and families interested in learning more about advance care planning are encouraged to visit www. conversationsmatter.ca.

Welcome to the 2014 Golfing Season Dennis Cook and Barry Galenza played the first official rounds of golf in Camrose this year. They teed off at noon on Friday, April 25.

Bill and Marnie Penny

E

very spring, for 32 years now, Darren McDermott has wondered the same question: How will the greens look once their winter blankets have been removed? Darren is superintendent of the Camrose Golf Course and he knows full well how important good greens are to the reputation of a golf course, how much golfers appreciate a smooth putting surface and how the condition of the greens can make or break a golf course’s season. No pressure. “This year’s greens are in the best condition I have ever seen,” reports Darren. Good news indeed for all golfers in the region and good news for the golf course in general. Golfers will see some changes later this year when the seventh green will be renovated, starting Sept. 15. It will be about 20 percent bigger than the existing surface with improved grades, allowing more options for pin placements. Some fairway bunkering is also planned for the left side, making it a little trickier for the long bombers who are trying to drive the green. Golf course architect Gary Browning is designing the renovation, continuing the plan he conceived all those years ago when the front nine was so much different than it is now. Many members of the grounds staff are returning this year, including assistant superintendent James Coles, which means an experienced crew will be looking after this jewel of a course. The Alberta Golf Association also sees the course as a treasure, deciding this year to allow

Camrose to host the north qualifier for the Alberta Senior Men’s Golf Championships. Pro-manager Bill Penny returns for the 2014 season. One of a handful of Master Professionals in Canada (attained in 2003) and the Alberta PGA Club Professional of the Year in 1993, Bill brings a wealth of experience to Camrose Golf Course. Bill is also bringing an experienced team with him including his wife Marnie, who coordinates all tournaments and special events. Bill, Marnie, along with shop assistants Braxton Fox, Debbie Naslund, Brent Lewis, Keith Bratke and Pat Bohnet want to make sure your golfing experience is a positive one. Upstairs in the Gallery Restaurant, Finn Olesen, wife Laurie, daughter Cindy and their staff are preparing for a busy season. They have added a number of new items to the menu and have some big plans in store for golfers and non-golfers alike. You don’t have to be a golfer to enjoy the

hospitality in the Gallery Restaurant, it is open to the general public and everyone is welcome. Everyone at the Camrose Golf Course is excited about the prospects of the 2014 season. Considering the shape of the course, the value of playing in Camrose rivals any other venue in the province. While other courses of similar calibre charge upwards of $75 for green fees, and season passes go for thousands, Camrose has managed to make golf not only fun, but very affordable.
