Augustana Faculty well equipped to provide education students want By Dan Jensen

University of Alberta Provost Carl Amrhein believes the Augustana Campus of the University of Alberta under Dean Allen Berger is well equipped to provide a very special kind of education that takes advantage of a large research intensive university while still delivering a unique student experience. “The Augustana faculty has been at the forefront of the (U of A) in embedding attributes and competencies in the curriculum,” said Amrhein at Augustana’s annual spring soiree April 22. “In fact, there is the argument that they are leading the University of Alberta in thinking through these things.” Amrhein said students at the U of A, like students around the world, are demanding more flexibility from institutions. “They are demanding mobility to move among institutions as part of their education and they are demanding the ability to move among different institutions. They are demanding more and more that post secondary institutions provide co-curricular training and attributes, characteristics, competencies, whatever the right word is. The Augustana campus has been involved in bridging, laddering and mobility since before it joined the University of Alberta. While it is constrained and imagination is required to make all that possible, the Augustana faculty at the University of Alberta is pushing the margins.” Amrhein noted that while there is work to be done on improving the chemistry and science labs and increasing the enrollment base, he is impressed with the success Augustana has enjoyed since joining the University of Alberta ten years ago. “You look at the success of the students and you look at the role that the dean at Augustana plays on these councils and the voice that your dean has in the affairs of the university and I just marvel. I marvel at the success of this campus, I marvel at the strong support all of you have given this academic institution for many years. I think the future is extraordinarily bright, and as institutions around the world figure out how to present the compelling picture to young people as to why they should spend time and resources to attend an institution like the University of Alberta, the Augustana faculty is incredibly well positioned.”

City council agrees to sponsorship of curling event By Dan Jensen

The City of Camrose will sponsor the 2014 Canada Cup of Curling at the EnCana Arena and Camrose Community Centre Field House Dec. 3 to 7 to the tune of $35,000. One of the major events of the 2014-15 season, the Canada Cup of Curling will feature 14 of the country’s best men’s and women’s teams – including Olympic gold medallists and the Brier and Scotties champions – who will be competing for a total purse of $140,000. Winners will have direct entry into the preOlympic trials and the 2015 Continental Cup in Calgary. “It is the first event in the Triple Crown, which also includes the 2015 World Financial Group Continental Cup at the Markiin MacPhail Centre International Arena and Canada Olympic Park in Calgary, and the Tim Hortons Bri-

er Men’s Championship in Calgary,” explained Canadian Curling Association event manager Terry Morris in a presentation to City council April 21. The Canada Cup of Curling will be hosted by the Rose City Curling Club in Camrose, the Hay Lakes Curling Club and the Daysland Curling Club, each of which will have the chance to be involved in the sale of 50/50 tickets and benefit from the event’s financial legacy. “The amount of the (financial) legacy depends on the ticket sales,” said Morris, adding that there will also be a legacy of increased interest in curling in the community. “St. John’s, which hosted the women’s worlds, received a legacy of between $50,000 and $60,000.” The attendance goal for the Canada Cup of Curling is 23,500 over five days. “We expect that it will

result in between 150 and 200 hotel bookings,” said Morris. “The average spend per visitor for accommodation is expected to be $300. Thirty to 40 per cent of the visitors or spectators will be coming from a distance of more than 100 km.” The estimated average spend per visitor at restaurants and bars is $350. The City of Camrose will receive its logo on each sheet of ice, as well as recognition on the Canada Cup of Curling website and advertisements in the Canada Cup of Curling Morning Cup event newsletter. The City will also receive a half page full colour advertisement within the 2014 Canada Cup of Curling Prevue. “The exposure you will get from the on-ice logos is very valuable,” said Morris. The City of Camrose provided a $15,000 sponsorship for the 2008 Continental Cup of Curling,

$15,000 for the 2008 World Junior Hockey Championship, $15,000 for the 2011 Women’s Provincial Curling Championship, $25,000 for the Royal Bank Cup (junior hockey championship), and $15,000 for the 2012 Men’s Provincial Curling Championship. “All of the noted events brought significant positive promotional opportunities to Camrose,” said a report to council by community services general manager Paul Nielsen. “The Canada Cup of Curling will likely exceed the above in terms of community exposure on a national scale due to its popularity from coast to coast and it being carried by a national sports network. Sponsorship and the promotion of Camrose that goes with it will further solidify Camrose’s position as a large scale, successful event-hosting community.”

Nielsen said the event will generate significant revenues for the host facilities, the three local host clubs, minor sports groups and the Recreation Centre concession operator. “It will generate significant revenues for the host facilities that will exceed the sponsorship amount being requested.” The sponsorship will be funded from the Community Assistance Grant ($20,000) and the City of Camrose general operating reserve ($15,000). Councillor Agnes Hoveland said although she supports sponsoring the Canada Cup of Curling, she is concerned that the City has no policy on the amount that can be given out in support of major events. “We have to be careful moving forward how we support events once we have set our budget.”

RELENTLESS ON WEEDS. SAFE ON WHEAT. FLUSH-AFTER-FLUSH™ CONTROL. With EVEREST® 2.0, no grower has to sacrifice yield or crop safety in order to control weeds in wheat. EVEREST 2.0 Herbicide, the new standard for grass control in wheat, has advanced safener technology built in to provide peace of mind while delivering long-lasting control of green foxtail, wild oats and key broadleaf weeds. FLUSH AFTER FLUSH™ CONTROL LEADS TO BETTER YIELDS In University of Saskatchewan field trials, researchers found that regardless of conditions, EVEREST 2.0 delivered Flush after flush™ control of wild oats and green foxtail with no risk of injury symptoms. The crop was able to grow without adverse effects, thanks to the super selectivity of EVEREST 2.0 on all varieties of spring and durum wheat. “We like that EVEREST 2.0 gives customers a wide application window that lets you spray at your earliest convenience, regardless of weather conditions,” says Brent McIndoe of Andrukow Group Solutions Inc. “Spraying early provides the best weed control, and with EVEREST 2.0, young wheat has the best chance to become

established and reach its top potential yield. And at the same time, if the rains come and the crop advances, EVEREST 2.0 is still safe to apply.” BEST-IN-CLASS CONTROL OF GROUP 1 RESISTANT GRASSY WEEDS More and more, spring wheat growers in Western Canada are plagued with Group 1 resistant grassy weeds. As a Group 2 herbicide, EVEREST 2.0 is the best option for growers struggling with Group 1 resistance. It is the only group 2 herbicide that provides Flush after flush control with unsurpassed crop safety.

EVEREST 2.0. A herbicide you can count on. For more information on EVEREST 2.0 visit Andrukow Group Solutions Inc., or call 1-866-761-9397

Augustana updates community on progress By Dan Jensen

Augustana dean Dr. Allen Berger wasn’t holding anything back when he talked about the new performing arts centre at the faculty’s annual spring soiree April 22. “This building, I am convinced, will have a transformative impact on Augustana and on Camrose and the surrounding region,” said Berger. “It will be a firstclass, state-of-the-art venue unique in North America for its sustainability features that will be accessible to all local arts groups with a stage large enough for our community’s many dancers, will attract many visiting artists and touring productions, will bring people from all over Alberta to Camrose to visit, spend a weekend, and maybe even settle here, and will contribute substantially to the quality of life and the regional economy.” Berger noted that the performing arts centre capital campaign is closing in on its $5 million goal ($1 million left to go), and that the people are now in place who will govern and manage the facility. “We have hired three fabulous employees – Kerry Rajotte, the theatre manager, Nick Beach, the technical director, and Tanya Pattullo, the patron services manager. And we have developed policies that will assure access for community groups and local patrons. As dean I can’t wait to join the mayor, reeve and members of the City and County councils to welcome all of you into the performing arts centre. That day is not far off.” Berger noted that Clark Builders will finish its work in early July and that the summer will be spend installing seats, sound and lighting systems, miscellaneous furniture and equipment and two Steinway pianos. “We plan to put all the systems through their paces and open the centre to the

Augustana dean Dr. Allen Berger greets Audrey Lett at the spring soiree.

public during the first week in October.” Other than the performing arts centre, Berger said the most visible project on Augustana campus involves Founders’ Hall, which is undergoing a two year renovation – supported financially by the U of A administration – that will see its architectural character retained while the exterior is redone with twenty first century materials, an elevator is added and the interior is modernized and designed. “We want to assure that it remains for another 100 years a place of affection for all Augustana alumni, a place that in their memories represents everything that is special about Augustana.”

Founders’ Hall’s new main floor will feature what Berger has informally called the campus living room, a comfortable space to welcome guests, whether they be alumni, donors, friends or prospective students and parents. The top two floors will feature faculty offices, each with an associated work area for a student research assistant, while the second floor will have a new student service, a one-stop centre in which students can access holistic, integrated advising services, and assistance with planning not just their class schedules for the coming term, but four- or five-year evolving academic plans. “This centre, which we plan to call LAB, except now

the acronym stands for Learning/Advising/Beyond,” said Berger, “will also be a place where students can get assistance with adjustments to their learning plans, perhaps changing a major or adding a certificate, and where they can access programs and consult with experts about career planning and possibly post-baccalaureate study.” A project Augustana hopes to get started this summer with financial commitment from the office of the provost is a renovation of the lower level of the forum to create an attractive space for informal social interaction and programs that serve Augustana’s growing number of aboriginal students. “This space, which will

be organized and decorated in culturally appropriate ways, will not only be a comfortable campus home for aboriginal students; it will be a space to promote interaction and understanding among all students and members of our community, regardless of background,” said Berger. “We are currently working closely with university architect Ben Louis to realize this vision in a way that meets the needs of our aboriginal students and helps us to advance a larger educational agenda of mutual understanding.” The most important project on which Augustana is working, said Berger, is an upgrade of “seriously outdated” classrooms and laboratories. “As many of you know Augustana was fortunate recently to host Premier Dave Hancock on campus. He visited with our local MLA and Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development Verlyn Olson,” said Berger. “What I and other members of Augustana’s leadership team shared with the premier was a vision of continued enrolment growth at Augustana, a vision of science labs taught in modern, twenty-first century facilities, of labs that support our faculty’s commitments to undergraduate research, and of flexible classrooms that easily accommodate innovative teaching practices that involve group problem solving, active learning, in-class simulations and project-based learning,” said Berger. “It was a great visit and now we need to continue to follow up with staff in the ministry and with senior leadership in the university to move this project from the back burner to the front. I plan to keep pressing, nudging where I can, and above all, drawing from anyone willing to listen the essential connection between this project and Augustana’s ability to provide here in rural Alberta the very best U of A undergraduate experience that is possible.”

Enrolment on Augustana campus continues to rise By Dan Jensen

The Augustana faculty of the U of A is continuing to grow in terms of total, international and aboriginal enrolment. “In the latter category we are now in second place in the university, enrolling a higher percentage of aboriginal students than every faculty except the Faculty of Native studies,” said Augustana dean Dr. Allen Berger April 22. “We are now working with senior U of A administration and with the ministry (of Alberta Innovation and Advanced Education) to plan for gradual growth, probably over four years or so, to a

total enrolment of 1,200 students.” Augustana is expanding opportunities for students from community colleges – places like Grande Prairie Regional College, Red Deer College and Maskwacis Cultural College – to earn a U of A bachelors degree while studying in a friendly, small community setting. Health professionals Berger noted that Augustana has a very successful relationship with the faculties of nursing and rehabilitation medicine to train health professionals here in Camrose. “Virtually all the

graduates of these programs are taking positions in rural hospitals and health agencies.” Increased possibilities Augustana is looking at increasing the amount of summer programming – workshops, certificates and camps of various kinds – to serve the community, increasing the amount of programming to assist with the development of faculty from foreign universities, and offering the unique expertise that it has in consultancies. “The most promising right now,” said Berger, “is work we hope to begin soon with members of the

Royal family of Kuwait to develop the Canadian University of Kuwait, a residential undergraduate arts and sciences campus similar to Augustana.” Teaching highlights Aug ustana has launched a new communications effort regarding its commitment help students develop the skills they need by the time they graduate. “We now have innovative videos available on the web and posters in every classroom,” said Berger. “What they explain is Augustana’s very simple and straight forward commitment: every student, regardless

of academic program, will become a sophisticated thinker, researcher and communicator. But obviously it is not enough for us simply to proclaim that goal. Under the leadership of professor Paula Marentette we have gone much further, specifying what we mean by thinking, research and communication skills in ways that are, first of all, understandable by students, and second, easily assessed by faculty. I am proud to report that soon we will have meaningful data to mull over, as Paula will lead the entire faculty through a half-day workshop in May.”

Ellen Parker looks ing forward to NDP leadership race By Dan Jensen

Ellen Parker is looking forward to the race for the leadership of the New Democratic Party of Alberta that was triggered last week when Brian Mason announced he would be stepping down Oct. 19.

Ellen Parker

“It will be exciting, I think, to have people step ahead and say yeah, I am willing to take on a greater role,” said Parker, who is secretary of the Wetaskiwin-Camrose NDP Association and a member of the party’s women’s council. “It will be exciting time as all leadership races are.” Mason believes it is time for a new leader to tackle the changing political landscape and lead the party into the next election. “The PCs won the last election with promises meant to appeal to prog ressively-m i nded Albertans,” said Mason in a statement April 29. “Their broken promises from that election have left many of their voters feeling betrayed and led to the collapse of their public support. And now, many Albertans are looking to the Wildrose as an alternative. But much like the PCs before the last election, the Wildrose is now pretending to be a moderate and socially progressive political party. However, there are hundreds of thousands of Albertans able to see through this deception who are looking for a new political home.” Parker believes that Mason, who represents the riding of Edmonton Highlands-Norwood, will stay involved with the NDP. “I can see him mentoring people just as he was mentored in the past by Raj Pannu and Ray Martin,” said Parker. “At one time we had three leaders in the legislature – the two former leaders as well as Mason – and we

had this wonderful rotation of leaders supporting each other, carrying on and offering their experience. I have no doubt that Brian will continue to do that with whoever takes over as the next leader. I can’t imagine him retiring outright. He is such a livewire and such a jubilant force. I see it as more of a change of role than a loss in any way.” Parker feels the time is right for a change in Alberta’s political scene. “It can only be healthy for any region to have new leadership and new parties in power,” said Parker. “We have four generations of kids who have gone through high school and never seen anyone but the PCs form government. I don’t think that is healthy. I go back to my childhood in B.C. When you have a new government, a new party come in, you get a spread of ideas and a mixture, and I think it renews everybody, including all the parties. I think it is very helpful for parties to be in government but also to be in opposition where they can practice strengthening their roots and do community service to understand what the needs are of those they represent.” Parker doesn’t see herself being involved in any upcoming federal of provincial elections. “I will continue to support people provincially and I would love to mentor new candidates but I really need to concentrate on taking care of family affairs and draw closer to home for a little while,” she said. “I know Bruce Hinckley is very involved with the Wetaskiwin-Camrose constituency NDP and I hope he will put his name forward again.” Mason, who squared off in a debate with Wildrose leader Danielle Smith in a debate at Augustana last fall, said a leadership race and a new leader are the best means to attract new people to the party. “The Alberta New Democratic Party is the only party in the province that can attract those voters disappointed with the PCs’ broken promises and has the political, organizational and financial capacity to make gains in the next election. We have a proven track record of standing up to the PCs and we’re ready to take on the Wildrose as well.”

Remember to wash your hands! By Murray Green

Monday May 5 was STOP! Clean Your Hands Day. This was a national event to remind people to wash their hands. Covenant Health St. Mary’s Hospital Camrose initiated a hand hygiene program in 2011. There are signs posted and hand sanitizer dispensers around the hospital

encouraging staff, patients and visitors to hand wash before going into a room and to wash their hands after leaving a room, all in an effort to reduce the spread of germs. That practice needs to be carried throughout the community. “Think of all of the surfaces that you come into contact with everyday like

cell phones, computer keyboards, bank machines and grocery carts,” said Catherine Turn, clinical safety coordinator at St. Mary’s. “Now, think of how many other people have touched those same surfaces. Remember, clean your hands to stay healthy, prevent the spread of germs and protect the ones you love.”

Canadian National Pistol Championship coming to Camrose By Dan Jensen

The Canadian National Pistol Championship will be held in Camrose Aug. 7 to 14. Ten metre air pistol competitions will be held at the Camrose Regional Exhibition Aug. 9 and 10, while 50 metre pistol, 25 metre standard pistol, 50 metre pistol (rapid fire match), 25 metre centre fire pistol, 25 metre pistol and 25 metre rapid fire pistol competitions will be held at the Camrose Shooting Sports Association’s outdoor range from Aug. 11 to 14.

The highest level of pistol competition in Canada, the National Pistol Championship is used as an Olympic qualifying event for Canadian shooters seeking to achieve status on Canada’s national shooting team. The event has been held in Canada over the last 60 years, with Alberta being the primary location since 1978, and Calgary since 2009. Camrose meets all the standards required for the national championship. The range is a fully certified safety range with covered

firing points, and is fully safety constructed with overhead protection and safety berms. The Camrose Shooting Sports Association leases the outdoor range from the City of Camrose and has an agreement with the City in relation to the usage of the outdoor range. The provincial pistol championship will be hosted at the Camrose Shooting Sports Association outdoor range from June 6 to 8. Both the provincial and national competitions will utilize Megalink electronic target

acoustic scoring equipment, currently used at international competitions. At this time, the host association, Alberta Handgun Association, provides the only electronic scoring equipment for all pistol shooting events in Canada. The national competition is expected to attract approximately 60 to 90 air pistol and 40 to 80 pistol competitors from across Canada. The provincial competition is expected to attract between 20 and 30 competitors. “The event will fol-

Fielding receives Caring Canadian award By Dan Jensen

Alan Fielding and five other Albertans received the Governor General’s Caring Canadian Award April 28 for significant, sustained, unpaid contributions to their community, in Canada or abroad. “This award is a wonderful way to celebrate the essential work performed every day across our province and nation by dedicated people who make our home a better place to be,” said Lieutenant Governor of Alberta Donald S. Ethel, who presented the awards on behalf of David Johnson in a ceremony at Government House, Edmonton. “These citizens are great role models for us all of what it means to be a caring Canadian.” Interviewed after the ceremony, Fielding said he was both honoured and humbled to be selected for the award. “It is really an awful lot of people in the community that have made this possible because I am only a small part of course of all these volunteer organizations. I am happy to be recognized and I am happy to be able to publicize in a small way the importance of community organizations, volunteer organizations, because I really feel they are an important part of the glue that makes our society function. I am aware of many parts of the world where the voluntary sector is either weak or nonexistent and those are communities you don’t want to be living in because it is every person for himself.” Fielding has given many hours of his time over the last 50 years to support local and international organizations, including the Battle River Credit Union, the Battle River Community Foundation, Rotary Club of Camrose Daybreak, the Camrose branch of the Kidney Foundation, the Camrose branch of the Red Cross, and the Sahakarini Inter-World Education and Development Association, an organization that was founded in 1979 by Gordon and Mina Schieck, Norm and Eloise Umbach and Jack and Jane Ross. “My parents believed in

helping others and making contributions to the community,” said Fielding, who moved to Camrose with his wife, Valerie, in 1974, after establishing a law practice with Harry Gaede the year before. “They instilled that in me from an early age.” Fielding joined the Sahakarini board in the 1980s and, as president, made several trips to developing countries to monitor projects in which the association was involved. “I feel we have been able to do a lot of good work with the resources we have,” said Fielding, who will be stepping off the board this year. “We have been able to work directly with project partners and make some really significant progress in the areas of health care, education, agriculture and microcredit, in other words, small loans to people so they

can have some capital to expand their businesses. I have enjoyed the work and the project visits and it has been gratifying to see that we have been able to make a difference in other communities.” A Sahakarini project that might have made the biggest impression on Fielding was one in rural India that supported farming through the construction of dams to catch water coming down from the mountains. “I remember walking out to the fields in the early morning and watching the farmers,” said Fielding, who visited the project in 2008. “They only had about an acre of land or something, but they were so happy to be going out and working. I wouldn’t have thought that it was possible in the 21st century to have these

very small subsistence type farms, but I was told by an interpreter afterwards that this allowed them to feed their families and send their kids to school. They were able to grow enough crops and sell them. I thought it was wonderful that for a few thousand dollars we were able to create a livelihood for a number of families in the area.” In 2004, Fielding visited the slum area of Sao Paulo, Brazil, here he helped build a roof for a day care that was supported by Sahakarini in conjunction with a Church of God organization called A Mao Cooperadora. “The pastors who work in this area believe if you take children when they are young and give them love and respect and training they will grow up to become useful and contributing citizens,” said Fielding in an interview with The Camrose Booster after his return. “Ninety per cent of the congregation of a nearby church is made up of families who have been part of another A Mao Cooperadora day care centre and see it as a part of their spiritual outreach program.” Fielding and Valerie established a fund with the Battle River Community Foundation in honour of Les and Bobbie Fielding (Alan’s parents) to support music programs in the Camrose area, and another in their own names to support whatever causes require assistance on an annual basis. “My family, along with the community, is what inspires me,” said Fielding. “The work I am involved in is not just me, it is the whole community working together.” Created in 1995, the Governor General’s Caring Canadian Award recognizes individuals who volunteer their time to help others and to build a smarter and more caring nation. The award also highlights the fine example set by these volunteers, whose compassion and engagement are so much a part of the Canadian character. Nominations can be made directly through the office of the Secretary to the Governor General.

low strict rules and regulations and have certified range masters and officials ensuring all safety provisions are followed and none of the competitors, officials or spectators are exposed to any unnecessary risk,” said Camrose Police Service Sergeant Rick Marcinkowski. “No issues or concerns have been identified by the Camrose Police Service or the City of Camrose that would be a concern for this event being hosted at the Camrose Shooting Sports Association or the at the CRE.

New Norway water system to be upgraded By Murray Green

Camrose County will be receiving $1,250,000 to upgrade the water system in the Hamlet of New Norway. Assistant administrator Paul King confirmed that the County has been contacted by municipal affairs with regards to a new program under the Regional Collaboration Program (RCP) and the Viability Review Support pilot initiative. An application for $250,000 in transitional administration and governance and $1,250,000 for the water distribution system upgrade was approved on March 27. It was announced at the April 8 council meeting. Administration was directed to amend the local improvement plan to reflect the new levy as a result of the increase in provincial funding. Last August, former councillor Glen Nelson moved that council send out an improvement plan to the affected residents of New Norway for the demolition, removal, decommissioning of the existing water tower and the construction of a water reservoir to accommodate a single family fire flow in the community at a total cost of $2,708,608 including carrying costs, with funding to come from the New Norway component of Camrose County allotment of current and future MSI to 2017 and a local improvement tax to be paid over 20 years. A new motion was passed at council to reflect the new and adjusted levy for ratepayers. Once the upgrade has been tendered, the County will be looking at a borrowing bylaw to cover the costs that are above the provincial amount.

Radiant Harmony choir supports community

CCHS VOLUNTEERS HELP WITH HABITAT BUILD

Volunteers from the Camrose Composite High School helped with the Habitat for Humanity Camrose build on Saturday, April 12. Helix Doig and Cole Adamson shovel gravel around the outside of the new duplex the organization is building in the northeast part of the city.

On Sunday, April 27 the Daysland Pastoral Charge’s Radiant Harmony, a church choir made up of 16 ladies from Daysland and the surrounding area, performed its spring concert for 2014. The choir is comprised of Norma Williams (Round Hill), Linda Spiller (Daysland), Teresa Friend (Rosalind), Nancy Lindseth (Killam), Leanna Gordon (Killam), Deb Miniaci (Camrose), Lisa DeCap-Dawson (Daysland), Karla Breitkreuz (Heisler), Maureen Hart (Killam), Doris Tobler (Rosalind), Barb McDonald (Ohaton), Anne Stordahl (Bawlf), Susan Chromik (Strome), Melody Kvale (Camrose), Sue Herder (Rosalind), and Maureen Larson (Daysland). The chor is led by Terry Banack (Round Hill) and accompanied by Anne McHugh (Ohaton). The choir started over 10 years ago, and although members have come and gone, the wonderful spirit of the group has remained the same. Since the choir started it has raised money for The Open Door, Centra Cam, Brigantia Place, Flagstaff Food Bank, Breast Cancer Society, Camrose Hospice Society, Hardisty Lake Camp and the Daysland Pastoral Charge. A matching grant was available last spring so they raised $3,400 for the Stollery Children’s Hospital. The choir’s Christmas concert donations went to the Gordon Zimmer family who gave the money to a charity of their choice, in memory of long time choir member Donna Zimmer, who passed away last year. This year donations of over $1,200 went towards FIRST, Flagstaff’s Initiative to Relationship and Spousal Trauma, which directly assists those affected by family violence, abuse and bullying. The choir performs twice a year at the Daysland United Church, and although it comes together purely for the love of singing, fun and fellowship, it is also proud of the money raised for these organizations.

Ladies’ auxiliary celebrating 53 years in 2014 By Anne Laskosky, Ladies’ Auxiliary past president

St. Mary’s Hospital Auxiliary is celebrating its 53rd year in operation in 2014. A hospital guild was formed less than one month after St. Mary’s Hospital was officially opened in Camrose in 1924. It’s stated objective was “to aid the Sisters and patients in every way possible.” The guild’s members continued their commitment for over 20 years. The names of some of the ladies involved in the work of the guild in 1924 are still recognized in Camrose: Mrs. U. Cunningham (first president), Mrs. J. Lang, Mrs. Ralph Byers, Mrs. A. Hailes, Mrs. F.M. Smith, Mrs. E. Shuman, and Mrs. S. Bosmans. The guild ceased to operate in 1960, but returned in 1961 as St. Mary’s Hospital Auxiliary, under the leadership of Mrs. F. MacInnes. Other members were Rita Nyback, Della Patrige, Dorothy Martin, Ann Kehoe, Edith Hitman, Ann Clark, Jean Andreassen and Adele McInnis. The auxiliary’s stated purpose was “to promote and advance the welfare of St. Mary’s Hospital and its patients through interpretation to the public through its service and fund raising.” (Quoted from St. Mary’s Hospital 50th Anniversary History Publication) The first major donation to the hospital was an examining table, in 1965, a much needed item. In addition to their fundraising activities, the members volunteered their time in other ways, such as regular visits of a cart containing

Over the years, some of these former services have had to be discontinued, but the members have continued to find new ways to follow the objectives stated by the guild to aid the Sisters and the patients in every possible way, and of the first auxiliary to promote the welfare of St. Mary’s Hospital through service and fundraising. Fundraising has become the major activity: an annual bake sale, raffles and operation of the gift shop.

The operation of the gift shop requires many volunteers and the hours of operation are limited to the volunteers that are available. The knitting, crocheting and sewing items that are sold in the shop are all donated. The shop often receives donations of wool, or yard goods, which are then picked up by volunteers and come back as sweaters, scarves, or quilts. A recent addition to the items for sale is books, which are donated and resold at minimum price. Books for children are very popular items. Their shelf life in the shop is very short!

Each year the funds raised are offered to the hospital for the purchase of needed equipment which is not in the immediate budget. The amount of the donation varies from year to year. It may be as little as $3,000, or as much as $15,000. Membership in the auxiliary is open to ladies of the community. A small membership fee is charged to identify the volunteer as being eligible to vote at the meetings and hold a position on the executive. Meetings are held at 2 p.m. the third Thursday

of the month in the hospital multi-purpose room. The auxiliary does not meet in June, July, August, and December, but the volunteer activities continue. At the end of the president’s annual report given in 1969 are these words: “The auxiliary members feel it is a privilege and an honour to be of service to St. Mary’s Hospital and to the community at large.” The members of St. Mary’s Hospital Auxiliary in 2014 echo that statement, by the thousands of volunteer hours they contribute every year.

Murray Green, Camrose Booster

Former New Norway area resident Jessie Murphy celebrated her 100th birthday with family and friends at the Stoney Creek Lodge. She was born on May 4, 1914 with her twin brother Ernie Mutchler. By Murray Green

Jessie Murphy has seen a lot change in the last 100 years. The former New Norway area and current Stoney Creek Lodge resident was honoured for reaching 100 years and was surrounded by family and friends. “I’ve seen a few inventions that have made living and farming easier over the years,” said Jessie. “Machines, running water and electricity all helped us along the way.” Jessie was born on May 4, 1914, along with her twin brother, Ernest Mutchler, to proud parents Lulu and Tracy Mutchler. Jessie often tells her grandchildren the story of how she came into the

world. “All of us were born at the farm with help of the neighbour lady and her helper. I was wrapped in a blanket and put in a shoebox then placed in an oven to keep warm,” she recalled the story as told to her. “The lady said she won’t live long. How wrong she was.” Jessie attended Silver Creek School and then moved on to New Norway school to complete her Grade 10. She married Dennis Murphy, who worked at the post office, was a trapper and owned land. He later worked for the Hudson’s Bay Company and they moved around a bit. She worked as a cook and was often called upon to be a nurse when one couldn’t be found in the north.

Former New Norway area resident Ashley Braim is vying for the title of Miss Universe Canada. Ashley is competing in the pageant this May in Toronto. “I wanted to gain more confidence, improve communicating with others and I want to give back to the community,” explained Ashley on her reasons for entering the event. “We pick a charity of our choice and raise money for the charity. It’s not about how much we raise or how little we raise, but its how you raise the money and awareness. I’m working with Operation Smile.” The downtown Edmonton hair stylist likes helping Operation Smile because it helps children. “It provides surgery for children that might have a cleft lip or any other facial deformities. Usually, these are in third world countries where they don’t receive a lot of medical attention they need,” she said. Operation Smile provides free surgeries to repair cleft lip, cleft palate and other facial deformities for children around the globe. “Someone mentioned to me that I should run for Miss Universe. I never really thought about pageants before. I took ballet dancing, so I am used to performing. I entered online and forgot about it. Two months later they phoned me and said they liked my application,” said the 23-year-old Grant MacEwan University graduate. “I will be representing Alberta. There will be about 10 of us from Alberta that will go to Ontario to compete in the preliminaries. There will be 68 of us from across Canada that will take part in the swimsuit, evening gown and interview categories in the preliminaries. They select the top 20 to be in the finals.” On May 22, the preliminaries will be held and then

the finals will be held on May 24. Ashley only had four and a half months to prepare for the event. “You have to work on your fitness for sure. I have a personal trainer to help me three or four times a week. I also try to keep on top of current events around the world and form an opinion on them,” she said. “I also work on my presentation, walking and public speaking.” The contestants from Alberta visit a public speaking coach in Calgary once a month. “We also work on walking, posing and our interviewing skills,” shared Ashley. “My parents were pretty surprised that I entered this pageant. They are behind me now but at first they were surprised and told me to be cautious.” Ashley aspires to one day pursue a career in broadcasting and is currently taking part time courses in writing and on-camera presentation. She hopes to apply for a full time program in the fall and continue her education in that direction. She believes that education and having goals is very important and that a person should never stop learning about the world. On May 11 and 12, the proceeds from her salon (The Boardroom) will be donated to her charity of her choice.

Camrose Adult Learning Council to present literacy award to Schreiber By Dan Jensen

Camrose and Area Adult Learning Council will present its 2014 Literacy Award to Maureen Schreiber April 28. “The award recognizes the dedication, passion and expertise she (Schreiber) displays while providing outstanding literacy programming for parents and children in the Camrose area,” said Camrose and Area Adult Learning Council executive director Diane McLaren. Schreiber has been employed as a facilitator at Camrose Family Literacy for the last 11 years, during which time she has helped countless families move forward with their literacy goals. “Her work is her passion and she goes above and beyond any job expectations to see that her clients receive all the help they need from whatever source necessary in the community,” said one of the award nominators. “She helps them connect to other agencies. She phones around to find possible resources that will assist them to move forward. She even helps them find food sources and accommodation when necessary.” Schreiber continually scans out opportunities to learn more about every aspect of child development and literacy learning. “She scans magazines and newspapers for up to date information,” said the nominator. “She watches for new books published in the subject area and attends workshops every year to learn about the latest research.” Schreiber taught playschool and Sunday School for many years to children in the Strome and Daysland area, introducing activities that the children enjoyed. Recognizing that many families live with financial constrains, she researched and designed top quality activities and toys that could be made with household items that cost nothing or next to nothing, and shared this knowledge with families, church members, teachers and ladies’ groups. Schreiber has been described as a caring and imaginative facilitator. “She accepts people and situations as they are,” said the nominator. “She constantly revises her plans for sessions to be sure to give every family what will benefit them the most. She combines the latest research with her very considerable expertise to achieve maximum progress. She is perceptive in knowing what activities will help a child or family and recognizes when more expert help is needed.” The literacy award will be presented during a Camrose and Area Adult Learning Council celebration at 4707-56 Street (second floor), starting at 1 p.m. A short program will be followed by refreshments and an opportunity to congratulate Schreiber in person.

The miracle of motherhood

Any woman who has had a child grow inside of her can tell you that having a baby is truly a miraculous event. To see a newborn open its eyes and stretch its arms out to the world, to see a child’s very first smile, to hear the first words spoken—nothing can compare. Being a part of this incredible process is one of the greatest things life has to offer. Indeed, motherhood is a real adventure. Often exhausting and sometimes downright daunting, it is also extremely rewarding. There are few other things in life that are so fulfilling—or challenging. And while being a mother often means having to act selflessly, there are no words to describe just how much joy being a mother can bring. As a society, it’s important for us to recognize the important social contributions parents make when they transmit to their children the necessary skills and maturity levels they’ll need to become responsible, caring adults. It’s unfortunate that our society does not place more importance on parenthood. Any parent can tell you it takes an extremely high level of patience, love and devotion to raise a family. Constantly providing children adequate care, comforting them, ensuring their safety, stimulating their development, awakening their conscience, resolving conflicts, building their self-esteem— these are just a few of the tasks parents must perform on a daily basis. Watching your children grow and learn about themselves and the world around them is an extremely gratifying process. But the real reward of being a parent is having your child jump into your arms with the most pure and beautiful kind of love there is.

Mother’s Day is a holiday that is celebrated across the country and around the world. However, have you ever thought about the tradition behind the day? The earliest Mother’s Day celebrations can be traced to the spring celebrations of ancient Greece in honor of Rhea, the Mother of the Gods. During the 1600s, England celebrated a day called “Mothering Sunday,” on the fourth Sunday of Lent (the 40-day period leading up to Easter). “Mothering Sunday” honored the mothers of England. During this time, many of England’s poor worked as servants for the wealthy. As most jobs were located far from their homes, the servants lived at the houses of their employers. On Mothering Sunday, servants had the day off and were encouraged to return home to spend the day with their mothers. A special cake, called the mothering cake, was often brought along to provide a festive touch. As Christianity spread throughout Europe, the celebration changed to honor the “Mother Church” -- the spiritual power that gave them life and protected them from harm. Over time, the church festival blended with the Mothering Sunday celebration. People began honoring their mothers as well as the church. In the United States, Mother’s Day was first suggested in 1872 by Julia Ward Howe (who wrote the words to the “Battle Hymn of the Republic”) as a day dedicated to peace. Ms. Howe organized Mother’s Day meetings in Boston every year. In 1907, Anna Jarvis, of Philadelphia, campaigned to establish a national Mother’s Day. Ms. Jarvis persuaded her mother’s church in Grafton, West Virginia, to celebrate Mother’s Day on the second anniversary of her mother’s death, the second Sunday of May. By the next year, Mother’s Day was also celebrated in Philadelphia. Ms. Jarvis and her supporters wrote to ministers, businessmen and politicians in their quest to establish a national Mother’s Day. It was successful, and by 1911, Mother’s Day was celebrated in almost every state. In 1914, President Woodrow Wilson made the official announcement proclaiming Mother’s Day as a national holiday that was to be held each year on the second Sunday of May. While many countries celebrate their own Mother’s Days at different times throughout the year, some countries, like Denmark, Finland, Italy, Turkey, Australia and Belgium, also celebrate Mother’s Day on the second Sunday of May.

Huseby to compete in Skills Canada Culinary Arts event Submitted

On Friday May 2 local BRSD high school student Madison Huseby will compete in the Skills Alberta Lakeland regional culinary art competition to be held in Vermillion college to try and win a place at the provincial skills Alberta competition to be held in Edmonton on May 14 and 15. Lakeland is in zone 4 and Madison has won this leg of the competition twice in the last two years and is aiming for a hat trick. Madison has been coached since Grade 8 by chef educator Mr. Matthew Stinson and is also currently employed in work experience by chef Jesse Chambers at Stockmans Chop House in Camrose. Madison`s training with chef Chambers and his staff have added a valuable dimension to her talents. Madison will be preparing an entree and a dessert item for this competition. She will dissect a chicken and stuff the supreme with a forcemeat which she will then season and bake. The chicken will be served with a Spanish rice pilaf along with a poached and buttered broccoli dish and carrots cut in bâtonnets, blanched and served in a butter and maple glaze. The chicken will be accompanied with a veloute sauce reinforced with fresh cream. The dessert will be an apple tarte tatin which is apples baked in a caramel sauce with a puff pastry base. The dessert has to be served with chantilly cream and a fresh fruit garnish. Madison will have to make two portions of each item and will have three and one half hours to complete the meal. The judging of the meal covers everything from safety and sanitation to timing, cooking skills and kitchen procedures to taste and visual presentation and interpretation of the specifications. Madison has spent a lot of time in the kitchen with Mr. Stinson since grade eight and beyond and she is on her way to becoming a great young Canadian chef. Madison has been accepted into the prestigious culinary art program in SAIT and will begin her studies there in September of this year.

Stacey Dunnigan Diane Hutchinson, Communications, BRSD

The current Bawlf School is soon to be replaced by a new, state-of-the-art facility, which is scheduled to be completed in time for the start of the next school year. In support of the Best Educational Support Team parent group and the Bawlf School Council’s joint efforts to raise funds to provide those “extra essential” items like sound systems, sports fields and more, vice principal Stacey Dunnigan has agreed to put her hair on the line. If students from the school can raise $5000 by June 11, Mrs. Dunnigan will dye her hair in a colour of the top class’s choosing. Just to make the challenge more interesting, Command Roofing has pledged $2,500, the former Rosalind ECS group has pledged to provide an additional $2,000 and an anonymous donor has added another $500 to what the students raise – making the “hair affair” potentially doubly lucrative for the fundraising team.

SPRING CLASSIC RODEO ACTION

Murray Green, Camrose Booster Dayton Roworth was a tad late in attempting to hitch a ride on this calf in the steer wrestling event at the Camrose Spring Classic Pro Rodeo on April 27. He had to settle for a no time, while Harley Cole won the event with a 4.1 second time.

Cole McBride joins Kodiaks

Camrose Kodiaks coach and general manager Boris Rybalka welcomes Cole McBride onto the junior hockey team after spring camp. By Murray Green

The Camrose Kodiaks have added 18-year-old forward Cole McBride for the upcoming season. After finishing off his midget career in Tisdale, Saskatchewan, Cole is excited about the opportunity to be a Kodiak. Cole finished the regular season with 22 goals and 50 points. He received the most dedicated, playoff MVP and the three star awards in his final year of midget hockey. “Cole skates well and has good mobility and transition in his game. He is skilled and likes to have the puck and wants to see it behind opposition goaltenders,” said Kodiaks coach and general manager Boris Rybalka. The 6-foot, 185 pound, Kindersley born player is looking forward to main camp and helping the Kodiaks achieve their goals. Last week Camrose added Dantan Davis and Zach Fischer to main camp after a successful spring camp. The Kodiaks are continuing their recruiting for the upcoming season as they have eight or nine positions to fill. Main camp is scheduled for Aug. 22 at the EnCana Arena.

Camrose Spring Classic Pro Rodeo provides thrills for fans By Murray Green

The Camrose Spring Classic Pro Rodeo at Camrose Regional Exhibition was a success in the arena and at the turnstiles. All three shows featured top notch rodeo entertainment in front of sold-out crowds. Camrose team roping brothers Brett and Justin McCarroll captured their calf in 6.2 seconds to win Friday night’s performance and place second overall in the rodeo. Taylor Brower of Halkirk and Tel Flewelling of Lacombe won the event with a remarkable 5.6 seconds time and earned $1,443 each. In bull riding, Jesse Torkelson and Zane Lambert had to split the top prize money ($1,,502 each) when

they both recorded an 87.5 on their rides. Luke Butterfield of Ponoka stole the spotlight in the saddle bronc event with a 85.5 score to earn first place and take home $1,650. Layton Green of Meeting Creek turned in a solid performance and came in seventh with an 81.5 tally from the judges. Another tie occurred in the bareback competition. Cody Demeres and Clayton Bunney both received a score of 87 from the judges and $1,318 each. Denny McKenney’s 78 point ride stood up as the top mark in the boys steer riding event. The New Sarepta youngster earned $475 for his effort. In steer wrestling, Har-

ley Cole of Cochrane jumped and tied his calf in blazing speed. His time of 4.1 seconds on Sunday afternoon gave him first place ($2,216) in a very tough event. With five cowboys recording times under six seconds and the eighth place time of 7.3 receiving a pay out, it was a good thing local police didn’t have a radar gun in the building. Kyle Lucas of Carstairs won the tie down roping event with a time of 8.3 seconds to earn $2,129. Donalda cowboy Curtis Cassidy came in fifth with his 9.5 time. In ladies barrel racing, It was Deb Guelly of Okotoks, who recorded the fastest time of 13.579 seconds to take home $2,057. She was followed by Rene Leclerg of Holden in 13.626.

Support the Cause May 28 On Wednesday, May 28, employees from the Camrose branch of Western Financial Group will come together for the 10th Annual Support the Cause walk to benefit the Western Communities Foundation. Western employees in communities across Western Canada will be wearing red Support the Cause t-shirts, and walking 5 km in Camrose to raise money for community projects in the rural communities where the company operates.

Last year, more than 1,500 Western Financial Group employees from over 100 locations across western Canada participated in the walk and raised a record $137,845 for the Foundation. Since its inception 10 years ago, Support the Cause has raised more than $563,000 for community projects through the generosity of sponsors. Donations made to the Foundation benefit graduating high school students, help build parks, pathways, libraries and community

centres and support other local fundraising projects selected by Western employees. This year, through the efforts made by its 1,800 employees, Western is hoping to exceed last year’s total, setting a fundraising goal of $150,000. If you are interested in supporting fundraising in the community or would like to know more about the Foundation, stop by the Camrose branch located at 5422-48 Ave, or visit supportthecause.ca.

Jeep Grand Cherokee Redefining the premium SUV

John Wigston By Dan Jensen

The 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee at Camrose Chrysler completely redefines the premium SUV, delivering an unprecedented combination of best-in-class fuel economy and driving range, available clean-diesel technology, a choice of leading powertrain options, legendary benchmark capability, world-class craftsmanship, premium on-road driving dynamics, and a host of advanced userfriendly technology and safety features. “The industry’s most highly acclaimed SUV has been elevated to an even higher level,” said Camrose Chrysler sales manager Noel Skoglund. “Our customers will clearly find the new Jeep Grand Cherokee to be even more of a pleasure to drive – on any and all roads, on the most demanding trails, and in all weather conditions. Jeep Grand Cherokee’s 3.0 litre EcoDiesel V-6 engine produces 240 horsepower and 420 lb.-ft. of torque while using just 11.2 litres per 100 km in the city and just 7.84 litres per 100 km on the highway. The engine’s block and bed plate is crafted from strong compacted graphite iron, which contributes to stiffness without penalizing performance. Grand Cherokee’s standard 3.6 litre Pentastar V-6 uses just 9.41 litres per 100 km on the highway, a nine per

cent jump from the previous model year. The engine generates 291 horsepower and 260 lb.-ft. of torque. Structural, intake and exhaust areas are designed to deliver low levels of overall noise and achieve specific sound quality goals that meet discerning customer requirements. The 5.7 litre V-8 produces 360 horsepower and 390 lb.-ft. of torque, and boasts a towing capacity of 7,400 lbs. VVT technology improves fuel economy in two ways: first it reduces the engine’s pumping work by closing the intake valve later. Second, it increases the expansion process of the combustion event. This allows more work to be transferred to the crankshaft instead of being rejected out of the exhaust port as heat. VVT improves engine breathing, which further improves engine efficiency and power. The 5.7-litre engine’s Fuel Saver Technology with cylinder de-activation seamlessly alternates between smooth, high-fuel-economy four-cylinder mode when less power is needed, and V-8 mode when more power is in demand. All three Jeep Grand Cherokee engines are now attached to Chrysler Group’s new eight-speed automatic transmission, which provides better fuel economy, quicker acceleration and smoother shifting. Fully electronic, the eight-speed automatic

features on-the-fly shift map changing, with manual shifting capability and Electronic Range Select using steeringwheel paddle controls. More than 40 individual shift maps for specific conditions optimize shift quality and shift points for fuel economy, performance and drivability. The 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee features three available 4x4 systems. Quadra-Trac I delivers fulltime four-wheel drive without any switches or levers to pull. The system provides smooth operation of the vehicle over a variety of road conditions. This light-weight singlespeed case is both proven and efficient for enhanced fuel economy. Quadrac-Trac II’s two-speed transfer case uses input from a variety of sensors to determine tire slip at the earliest possible moment and takes corrective action. The system also uses throttle anticipate to sense quick movement in the throttle from a stop and maximizes traction before tire slippage occurs. When wheel slippage is detected, as much as 100 per cent of available torque is instantly routed to the axle with the most traction. Quadra-Drive II with a rear Electronic Limited-slip Differential (ELSD) delivers industryleading tractive capability. The system instantly detects tire slip and smoothly distributes engine torque to

tires with traction. In some cases, the vehicle will anticipate low traction and adjust in order to proactively limit or eliminate slip. The Jeep Grand Cherokee rises above the road and rocks with the rugged Quadra-Lift air suspension system. The Quadra-Life system features five height settings for optimum ride performance. Grand Cherokee’s classleading Selec-Terrain traction control system allows customers to choose the on- and off-road settings for optimum performance. This feature electronically coordinates up to 12 different powertrain, braking and suspension systems, including throttle control, transmission shift, transfer case, Hill-descent Control, and Selec-Speed Control. All 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokees equipped with the Off-road groups are Trail Rated. The Jeep Trail Rated gadget indicates that the vehicle is designed to perform in a variety of challenging road conditions identified by five key consumer-oriented performance categories: traction, ground clearance, maneuverability, articulation and water fjording. Jeep Grand Cherokee’s 114.8 inch wheelbase creates generous interior room and gives passengers expansive rear-seat knee and leg room,

and large front door openings and rear doors open 78 degrees for better access to the interior. Inside, premium seating includes room for five passengers. A standard foldflat rear passenger seat provides improved cargo storage room. For added passenger comfort, rear seats recline 12 degrees. Cargo volume behind the second row measures 36.3 cubic feet and includes a storage unit with a rechargeable flashlight and grocery hooks on both sides. The spare tire compartment includes removable dual storage bins for secure storage of muddy gear or other items. From the driver’s seat, everything the driver sees, touches – and even speaks to using voice commands – is enhanced to increase function, connectivity and responsiveness. Not only does it work better, it looks better packaged in more premium materials and elegant graphics. This includes a redesigned steering wheel that is optimized for driver position while also providing control buttons for frequently-used features such as radio, cruise control, phone and voice-activated commands. You can see the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee by visiting Camrose Chrysler on Highway 13 East, Camrose. Phone 780-672-2476 and ask for one of the friendly sales professionals.

Quick change fraud On April 25, at approximately 3:30 p.m., a male and female suspect entered one of the large department-style stores in Camrose. The suspects made a purchase in the electronics section where the male suspect asked the clerk numerous times for differing amounts of change, intentionally confusing the clerk and receiving more change than he should have. The suspects defrauded two different tills at this store totalling $240. Later the same day, at approximately 5 p.m., the same male and female suspects are believed responsible for a similar fraud totalling over $90 in cash at a Camrose business along main street. On April 19, the same male and female suspects are believed to be responsible for a similar fraud at a business in Wetaskiwin. Police are encouraging businesses to be aware of this scam as there have been similar occurrences in the past. Often, two subjects are involved, which helps them effectively distract the cashier from what they are doing. Police have also seen this with only one subject. These occurrences show that this scam can occur at any retail business that accepts cash, and is not just specific to franchise type businesses. Anyone who has any knowledge of these occurrences is asked to contact Const. Adam Belanger, Camrose Police Service, at 780-672-4444, or by email at abelanger@camrose.ca

Associate minister learns more about rural challenges By Dan Jensen

Associate Minister of Services for Persons with Developmental Disabilities Naresh Bhardwaj paid a visit to Centra Cam Vocational Training Association, The Bethany Group and Camrose Association for Community Living April 25 as part of a province-wide tour to learn more about the challenges faced by rural communities when it comes to serving people with disabilities. “We recognize the needs of rural communities are different than urban communities, and even within the rural the needs are different in Camrose than they would be in Wetaskiwin, in Lacombe, Lamont and other parts of the province,” said Bhardwaj. “I am making an attempt to make sure that I visit as many communities as I possibly can to talk about the local issues such as housing as an example, employment for persons with disabilities, inclusive education, meeting the needs of complex students and transportation.” Bhardwaj seemed particularly interested in the legislative challenges from an employer’s point of view that government needs to work on so that more persons with disabilities can find employment. “The themes (from the three organizations) are much the same,” said Bhardwaj. “They centre around retaining a qualified workforce as an example, attracting a qualified workforce.” Bhardwaj said the government is working closely with the Alberta Urban

Associate Minister of Services for Persons with Developmental Disabilities Naresh Bhardwaj (centre) poses for a photo beside the Augustana entrance sign with left to right Augustana dean Allen Berger, Preston Wideman, Inclusive Post Secondary Education program coordinator Katelyn Harte and Wetaskiwin-Camrose MLA and Minister of Alberta Agriculture and Rural Development Verlyn Olson. Municipalities Association, the City of Camrose, Wetaskiwin-Camrose MLA Verlyn Olson on a number of issues, including housing. “We are connecting with people and coming up with the best solutions and opportunities.” Bhardwaj also had the opportunity to meet with Preston Wideman, who, with the support of the Alberta Association for Community Living, has just completed year one of an Inclusive Post Secondary Education program at the Augustana Campus of the University of Alberta.

“I was able to take classes in religion, Greek civilization and basketball,” said Wideman, who also did the scoring and refereeing during basketball practices. “I haven’t decided what I will take next year, but I am thinking maybe French.” Carol Wideman, who is Preston’s mother, said the opportunity for Preston to be involved in the Inclusive Post Secondary Education (IPSE) program was one that was too good to pass up. “We jumped at it. It is a four-year commitment he has to go to school. He gets

to choose from a number of classes that are available.” Students who are enrolled in the IPSE as assisted in their academic studies by program coordinator Katelyn Harte. “I work with the professors to help all of the students be fully included in the classroom and in campus life and clubs,” explained Harte, adding that the IPSE program has been around for about seven years. “Classroom sizes are sometimes an issue but we can help the students connect we their peers. If it is a

large classroom we can have small group studies. Harte said inclusive post secondary is a great opportunity for students with developmental disabilities. “It is that natural transition into adulthood for a lot of students and at Augustana they are included just like everyone else.” The IPSE program has two students who will be graduating in a year’s time. “Our goal is for these students to be successful and to find employment after their degrees,” said Harte.

Goin’ for a Jaunt virtual trek comes to close Program had 425 participants who together logged over 134 million steps By Colleen Lindholm, Camrose Primary Care Network

Congratulations participants of the Camrose PCN 60 day 2014 Goin’ for a Jaunt Virtual Trek. You walked, ran, swam, biked, danced and moved. The virtual trek was created to provide a fun way for you to works towards a healthier you and you are well on your way. The 2014 Goin’ for a Jaunt Virtual Trek, which began on Feb. 18, had 425 participants joining in on this unique fitness challenge – together logging over 134 million steps. You virtually travelled the province of Newfoundland, which increased your physical and

mental well-being while receiving valuable health and fitness tips along the way. A key partner in the success of this year’s trek was the Augustana Fitness Center. They played a substantial role in the success of the trek with keeping track of participant progress on a bulletin board, being part of the kick-off and fitness tips videos, as well as providing the grand prize of a one year membership. In partnership with the Fitness Center, the PCN is excited to announce this year’s winner of the grand prize draw, Robert Warren. Every person who completed the trek was entered into the draw. The group challenge of the trek measured the progress of the groups against the progress of other groups within the trek program. The group activity graph compared activity against other groups in the program based on the percentage of active members for their

past seven days. The group challenge took the total of all the steps for the group, and averaged it by the number of steppers in the group. This way it didn’t matter if the group was large or small, it was all fair. The Happy Wanderers won with members Pat Lofvendahl, Bill Maertens-Poole, Marlene Maertens-Poole and Wilf Maertens-Poole. As part of a partnership with the Camrose Healthy Lifestyle Coalition, the Camrose PCN also enjoyed having PACE Outreach students as part of the 2014 Goin’ for a Jaunt Virtual Trek. The coalition decided to offer support and resources to an identified community group/organization/school through its efforts in the Virtual Trek. Out of a draw of several community groups/organizations/schools, PACE Outreach School was selected. The students at PACE were very diligent in tracking their activities and worked

hard throughout the trek to increase their activity levels. At the end of the trek the coalition treated the PACE students and staff with a healthy “wrap up team lunch.” Two new initiatives for the trek this year included a partnership with the City of Camrose which allowed the PCN Team to host Monday lunch time walks at the Camrose Recreation Centre walking track. Participants really enjoyed the opportunity to utilize the track each Monday – kick starting their week of activity. Round Hill School also opened its doors to their community to come in and walk in the school gym as an alternative option to walking outside in the winter months. The PCN continues to receive a lot of positive feedback on the virtual trek tool – with people using it to keep them motivated in their fitness activities. To keep the momentum going, the PCN is pleased to announce peo-

ple will be able to continue using the tool for their own personal fitness journey. While the official PCN trek is complete, we encourage everyone to use it as their own personal fitness tool. Even if you didn’t join the official trek – it’s not too late to join. See how far you can journey across Newfoundland over the next year. “I am so pleased the Camrose PCN can model the way for active lifestyles and provide people in our community with opportunities for increased physical activity,” said Stacey Strilchuk, executive director of the Camrose PCN. “We know physical activity produces overall physical, psychological and social benefits but it’s important to remember physical activity should be fun too.” To learn more about continuing on the trek or to register for your own journey, visit www.camrosepcn. com.

The Rewards of being a Booster carrier go beyond enjoying earning personal spending money... Since The Camrose Booster first started publishing the community’s favorite newspaper back in 1952, we’ve relied on private carriers to look after delivering our publications and flyers for our valued customers. It’s a job that over the years has been a wonderful first job, stepping stone, interim

employment or retirement hobby for countless people. Hundreds of families in the past half-century have become “team carriers” with the objective of saving money for a family vacation, major purchase, college, university or other education.

These two routes are now open in Victoria Park

• Carriers are required to deliver the Booster and inserts on Tuesdays and a pre-collated flyer package on Thursdays. We will deliver these to a drop-off point on your route or you may pick them up at our office. • Route 37 contains 148 households and Route 38 contains 144. Each route can be completed in about two hours. • Minimum age is 12 years, approximately half of our routes are delivered by adults.

Reasons to Consider Joining our Team: 1. Spending Money You are paid CASH, immediately following the completion of your route, or whenever convenient for the carrier.

2. Great Way to Learn Responsibility Parents of carriers from years gone by routinely report lessons learned from having a scheduled carrier route were the basis or foundation for their child’s other successes in life’s path.

3. Get Paid While You Get Exercise and Fresh Air This is the reason we are attracting a growing number of adults (many 50 plus!) to do their own weekly or twiceweekly route. Over half our routes are delivered by adult carriers.

4. Convenient Hours After school delivery of The Booster on Tuesday and flyer delivery on Thursday afternoons seems to work for most families. Adult carriers may pick up Boosters at our shop by 1:00 p.m. on Tuesdays and Thursday flyers any time after 7:30 a.m. Routes are to be completed by 6:30 p.m. either day.

5. We Offer a Route that is Close to Your Home We make it easy for you to access your papers or flyers so your route can be quickly completed. Papers/flyers may also be picked up at the Booster office if you wish.

Canada Cup of Curling at EnCana December 3 to 7 to feature some of country’s best By Murray Green

Although Kevin Koe and his foursome form Team Canada in men’s curling, Koe won’t be participating in the Canada Cup in Camrose’s EnCana Arena on Dec. 3 to 7. However, a familiar face will take the reigns of the reigning Canadian men’s curling champions. Former Olympic gold-medallist, world men’s champion and two-time world junior men’s champion John Morris will replace Koe at skip, calling the shots for the remainder of the team that won the 2014 Tim Hortons Brier in March in Kamloops, B.C. Morris will join the rest of the team with third Pat Simmons, second Carter Rycroft and lead Nolan Thiessen still intact. They will assume the title of Team Canada at the 2015 Tim Hortons Brier Feb. 28 to March 8 at the Scotiabank Saddledome in Calgary. Morris was skipping the B.C. team that Koe’s rink defeated in the Brier final this year. The team will also compete at the 2014 Canada Cup of Curling in Camrose and the 2015 World Financial Group Continental Cup in Calgary, which, with the Brier, comprise the Alberta Triple Crown. Koe left the team earlier this month to form a new team with third Marc Kennedy, second Brent Laing and lead Ben Hebert. “We’re thrilled to be able

to bring aboard a player of John’s calibre,” said Simmons. “Of course, we’ve always had a great deal of respect for John as a player and a rival, and we’re excited about what we can do together on the ice next season.” Morris said he will play a limited schedule during the 2014-15 season due to work commitments, with only a few World Curling Tour bonspiels planned outside of the Alberta Triple Crown events. “My plan was to take the 2014-15 season off as I move ahead in my career as a firefighter,” said Morris, a resident of Chestermere. “But to be able to play for Team Canada, and considering the Alberta events are so close to home, it was hard to pass up on this offer. I talked it over with Jim, Tyrel and Rick and they were very understanding. I can’t thank them enough for the season we had, and I wish them nothing but the very best going forward.” Rycroft will only be playing in the Alberta Triple Crown events, so the team also announced that former world champion Scott Bailey will take his place at second for World Curling Tour events. Tickets for the 2014-15 Alberta Triple Crown are available at www.curling.ca/ tickets/ The Canada Cup will feature the 14 top-ranked teams in Canadian curling in

Camrose. The field includes 2014 Olympic gold medalwinners Jennifer Jones and Brad Jacobs, and 2013 and 2014 Scotties Tournament of Hearts champion Rachel Homan. The field will be rounded out by Morris’ Team Canada and the next best five teams of each gender based on the 2013-14 Canadian Team Ranking System. Jones, backed up by third Kaitlyn Lawes, second Jill Officer and lead Dawn McEwen, will complete at the Canada Cup of Curling, the 2015 World Financial Group Continental Cup in Calgary, and will be in the Manitoba playdowns in hopes of playing at the 2015 Scotties Tournament of Hearts, Feb. 14 to 22, in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan. Tickets for the 2014 Canada Cup can be purchased online at curling.ca/tickets or by phone at 1-877-9852875. The Old Classic ticket package, guaranteeing a prime seat for all 13 draws, is now available for $229. The host committee for the Canada Cup is recruiting volunteers to serve in a variety of roles. Those interested in taking part in this prestigious event can register at www.curling. ca/2014canadacup-en/volunteer/ online.

Volunteers needed for curling event By Murray Green

Now that Camrose has attracted one of the legs of the curling triple crown, the Canada Cup, volunteers are needed to make the event a success. The Canada Cup will be hosted by the Rose City Curling Club, Daysland Curling Club and the Hay Lakes Curling Club in Camrose at the EnCana Arena from Dec. 3 to 7. Four teams have already qualified for the local event. “We will have seven men’s and women’s teams. The Olympic gold medal champions Jennifer Jones and Brad Jacobs, the Scotties Tournament of Hearts champion Rachel Homan and Kevin Koe (now John Morris) rinks,” said Canadian Curling Association event manager Terry Morris. “Those are four big names (teams) who have already qualified.” All rinks will play a round robin and then move into a playoff pool. “We will have a four team page playoff system and playdown from there to the final,” explained Terry. “The winner receives a direct entry into the Continental

Cup in Calgary in both sides (women’s and men’s) and a share of the $140,000 prize money. They receive $800 a win and more is set aside for the top four teams.” The other five teams of each gender will be based on the 2013-14 Canadian Team Ranking System. Five games will be played in five draws a day until the playoffs hit. “It’s a great venue and they usually have pretty good ice here. It’s just too bad we didn’t have a few more seats,” said Terry, who is optimistic on selling out the seats for the playoffs. The attraction of the Canada Cup is the fact that the top men’s and women’s teams will be curling in the same event as opposed to the Brier and the Tournament of Hearts that separate the two genders. “The quality of curling will be high because you have the very best teams in both men’s and women’s,” said Ken Duncan, who will be assisting Terry. “These will be the best teams in Canada.” Terry would like to see 250, or more volunteers in Camrose. “We need people on all

kinds of committees, officials and work as ticket-takers. To volunteer go to www.curling. ca and go to Canada Cup and the volunteer page to register online,” said Terry. Each volunteer could work about 32 hours, but they receive a Canada Cup uniform to wear for the event, a banquet and access to games. “We formed a partnership with Camrose, Daysland and Hay Lakes to give us a broader base to draw volunteers from,” added Ken. The entertainment stage and patch will be held at the Field House. Tickets are available for $229 for 13 draws, not counting the finals. Single tickets will be $25, so the package brings the price down to about $17 a draw. “We want a sell out for each draw, but if we average 1,300 to 1,400 a draw, we will be doing well,” said Terry. “We expect a sellout for the finals, so we remind people to purchase tickets now. You can even go online and pick your seat now.” Tickets for the 2014 Canada Cup can be purchased online at curling.ca/tickets or by phone at 1-877-985-2875.

The C event of the 2014 Men’s Bonspiel at the Rose City Curling club was won by the rink of (left to right) Gord Heiberg, Sean Heiberg, second, Nathan Proctor, and lead, Ben Heiberg.

The D event of the 2014 Men’s Bonspiel at the Rose City Curling Club was won by the rink of (left to right) Bob Hayes, skip, Peter Kamstar, third, Darcy Langlois, second, and Aaron Hayes, lead.

Helpful Tips for Writing Classified Ads Which Get Results! Be Thorough

Sure you want your ad to stand out from the rest, but don’t skimp on the sort of information that sells. The item’s condition, size, age, brand name, and color are some of the basics readers want to know. Without them, your ad may be overlooked.

Steer Clear of Abbreviations

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

Be Honest

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

State Your Price

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

Be Accessible

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

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

Restaurant owners respond to moratorium on hiring of temporary foreign workers By Dan Jensen

Camrose restaurant owners were still reeling last week after the April 24 announcement by Employment Minister Jason Kenney that he was placing an immediate moratorium on the food service sector’s access to the temporary foreign worker program. “It is going to be difficult,” said Tim Hortons franchisee Ken Mah, who has been asked to forward all requests for comments to the Tim Hortons corporation. “Look around and you will see that there are foreign workers at almost every restaurant in Camrose.” Norsemen Inn owner Sean Willms feels many small restaurants who rely on foreign workers may be forced to shut their doors if the moratorium is not soon lifted. “The workers they have would all have to go home once their contracts are up,” said Willms. Norsemen Inn has 21 foreign workers, nine of whom are in the process of applying for their permanent residency. “It would be an enormous strain on us financially if they weren’t able to stay with us,” said Willms. “We would survive because we plan for things like this in advance, but there is a good possibility that we would be faced with extra training costs and a reduction in the overall level of service that comes from having people who are less experienced doing the job.” The moratorium was imposed just hours after a release of a study by C.H. Howe Institute, which found that the temporary foreign worker program had spurred joblessness in B.C. and Alberta, and that, since its inception in 2002, a cumulative 3.9 percentage points have been added to the unemployment rates in western Canada. The report was apparently the last straw for the government, which has been dealing with a number of allegations that employers have been abusing the program by paying foreign workers lower wages and providing fewer jobs for Canadians. Liberal Party of Canada immigration critic John McCallum pointed to one case where a pizza restaurant in Weyburn, which received a labour market opinion (LMO) fired its Canadian workers after training new foreign ones. Willms feels the employers that have been abusing the program are making things difficult for

the ones who are complying with all the rules. “I have only heard on the news that it was a handful of locations (where there was abuse), but I don’t know that for a fact,” said Willms. “It is definitely a small group of employers who are ruining it for a large province of employers.” Willms said the Norsemen Inn has had a difficult time filling some of its openings with workers from Camrose, Alberta or Canada. “We have put ads in papers all over the place to advertise the positions and we either get no response or the people who respond have no experience, poor resumes and poor track records of employment. The foreign workers when they come over are fantastic workers – reliable, hard working and loyal – and have great customer service skills. They want to work 40 hours a week plus they want to get another part time job elsewhere in the hotel. They seldom, if ever, call in sick.” Willms said it is wrong to suggest that employers pay less for foreign workers than they pay for Canadians. “The actual prevailing wage for international workers, meaning foreign workers, is higher than the minimum wage for Canadians. Plus, to get them here, we pay their airfare and, in some cases, their accommodations. When I brought my foreign workers here I set them up in one of my own townhouses, filled the cupboards with food, bought furniture, plates, silverware, glasses and towels. I also had to pay the LMO, which starts the process, so the cost of hiring a foreign worker is for sure double what it costs to hire a Camrosian or Albertan.” Kenney said the message that the moratorium is sending to employers is that the government will not tolerate any abuse of the temporary foreign worker program. “We have made reforms to the temporary foreign worker program to ensure that Canadians are first in line for available jobs and to ensure that employers do not take advantage of foreign workers.” McCallum has written to the auditor general to request an audit of the temporary foreign workers program safeguards to prevent further abuse.

“We need to get to the root of the problem,” said McCallum. “The number of abuses suggests that there are very few safeguards in place to ensure that the Temporary Foreign Worker Program is used correctly and does not displace Canadian workers.” While a Camrose McDonald’s manager

declined to comment on the moratorium, McDonald’s Canada said in a statement that it has acted “swiftly and forcefully” to investigate allegations some of its restaurants have misused the foreign workers program. “We do not tolerate any misuse of the Temporary Foreign Worker Program, any breach of employment standards or any infrac-

tions of any kind against our employees.” The Canadian Federation of Independent Business (CFIB) is deeply concerned that a moratorium on restaurants’ ability to access the temporary foreign worker program will push some small businesses to the brink, and is calling on the federal government to end the moratorium quickly.

Spring into Summer with Tips for Saving Energy at Home and Keeping it Cool! Cooling your house with solar screens, cellular shades, and window film from Budget Blinds are three energy efficient solutions that offer you different ways to stay cool in the summer environment. Studies have proven that the largest portion of a home’s energy demand comes from the heating and cooling of the interior. While many families are not in a position to make costly updates to their appliances, the use of highly efficient window treatments can be effective for saving energy at home.

Solar Screens are a summer time necessity; they allow you a nearly unobstructed view of the outside while providing your home with a cool breeze to lift away the summer heat without having to use your energy sapping air conditioner. •Retractable solar screens are perfect for patios during the summer because they help keep out pests and dust while providing you and your guests with natural ventilation. •Solar screens can help block the heat of the sun to create a more comfortable environment during hot summer days.

Cellular Shades are among the few window coverings that provide optimal insulation. Because of their double cell design, they help keep air from entering and/or escaping. As a

result, your home will be cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter. •Cellular shades can lead to energy bill savings of up to 30% when used throughout the house. •They come in a variety of transparencies to create the ideal privacy and lighting levels. •Cordless cellular shades are child-safe and easy to operate.

Window Film is an especially energy efficient window treatment because it not only reduces glare, but in combination with blinds, can reduce heat gain by up to 45%. •Window film provides privacy and protection for your windows because of their tinted nature and resistance to impact. •Window film not only protects your windows, it also provides a fantastic view as compared to standard window coverings. Budget Blinds is here to help you Spring into Summer in comfort and style. Remember, the money you save by using energy efficient window coverings and treatments can be used for more summer fun!
