BRREA talks change while celebrating 65 years By Dan Jensen

The emphasis was on change and moving forward at the Battle River Rural Electrification Association’s annual general meeting June 30. “The pioneers of our past, the people who saw the future, took chances, took risks and made things happen,” said BRREA general manager Colleen Musselman. “We are at another junction in that we need to look at the next chapter and do the same thing. We are very comfortable with where we are at but we need to make change.” Musselman said the BRREA is looking for ways to expand its market share. “We would like to have the exclusive right to serve all new consumers. Today we don’t have that right. If another utility would like to take them away, and it has happened in the last couple of years, they go ahead and do so.” The REA would also like to expand its mandate to play a stronger role in rural economic development, which is now limited by the Rural Utilities Act, and manage its own rates and operations through a local elected board. “The for-profit utilities want to see that the REAs do not have a board of directors setting rates and approving them,” said Musselman. “They want them to go in front of the Alberta Utilities Commission, which is a very expensive process.” Musselman said the changing demographics of the province mean that the BRREA cannot stand pat. “We went backwards by 43 services last year, so we are not building enough services to keep the levels the same. What that means is that we salvaged out more services than we built. There are fewer new farms and less

The Battle River Rural Electrification Association presented scholarships at its annual meeting June 30 to, left to right, front, Katie Anderson, of Leduc County, who is enrolled in the Bachelor of Science in Nursing program at Grant MacEwan; Robyn Lethbridge, from Wetaskiwin County who is studying Animal Health Technology at Grande Prairie Regional College; back, left to right, Lucas Bartz, from Fort Saskatchewan, who is enrolled in the Faculty of Engineering at the University of Alberta; Samantha Walters, from Sherwood Park, who completed a Western Ranch and Cow Horse Program at Lakeland College; and William Holowaychuk, of Sherwood Park, who is finishing his pre-requisities for entrance to the University of Alberta School of Business.

rural residential because we don’t have the options of serving oil, gas, industrial and commercial. Your REA will gradually be going backwards because of this.” Differences

Musselman said the Battle River REA differs from for-profit utility companies in that members remain at the centre of the business. “We do not look at maximizing profits, which is what a for-profit does. They are there to make profits for their shareholders. REAs balance the needs for profitability with the needs of its members and its communities. Driven by our roots we go out and make things happen where nobody else wants to. That is how we came into existence 65 years ago. Nobody wanted to bring power to rural Alberta because there was no profit in it at the time.” Musselman noted with the REA, the member, the

customer and the stakeholder are one in the same. “If we make a profit off you the member, you are the customer and you are the shareholder. It is a reciprocal circle. A for-profit has you the customer but the shareholder, who takes the profit, is somebody different.” Musselman said the BRREA has a policy to spend as much as possible in the communities it serves. “We re-invest in those communities. If we can’t find it in the community we serve we invest it provincially. We do not go outside the province of Alberta. Last year alone Battle River REA spent $4.5 million within the communities we serve and another $16.2 million in the province of Alberta. In the last nine years, Battle River REA has spent $36 million within the community and $132 million in the province of Alberta. Those are significant dollars that come out of your pocket

that get reinvested and recirculated.” Member savings

Musselman noted that the BRREA provides substantial savings to members as compared to other forprofit utility providers. “The total member savings is $3.9 million on the distribution tariff and $1.5 million on energy, for a total savings this year of $5.5 million, which is an average savings for distribution tariff and energy per member of $649. Between 2008 and 2014 the average member savings was $4,377.” New website

BRREA’s redesigned website, together with Twitter, make it easier for members to communicate with staff members, record power outages and pay bills. “Through Twitter, when your power goes down and you have no way of seeing what is going on, you can get immediate information on where the outage is, when

the power is going to be restored, and what the issue is,” said Musselman. “You can send a message back to us as well.” The BRREA is also making it possible for members to save money on purchases through a member benefit program. “We contacted all the businesses in the territory we serve in the hope of developing a partnership with them,” said Musselman. “They are willing to give you an additional break every time you come into their store. If you want to use this option, give us a phone call. We will register you and give you a card, which is going to have your name because only members get these benefits. When you go into that business you show them your card and you automatically get that discount on top of any sale or business you are doing.” In addition, Musselman said the BRREA is working to extend to members the benefits it receives through its association with the Alberta Municipal Districts and Counties. “There has to be more value we can bring to our members, so we are dipping our toes in the water and trying it out. There is a 25 to 30 per cent savings on all tires, 30 per cent savings at Staples, and 10 per cent savings at Mark’s Work Wearhouse. The deals are coming directly from the manufacturer. The Kal Tires, the Fountain Tires that are in your community do not lose anything. They get exactly the same amount of money as if you went in there individually. The direct savings comes though the Alberta Municipal Districts and Counties to us from the manufacturer, so there is no negative impact to the organizations within your communities.”

Battle River REA encouraged in work with government By Dan Jensen

The Battle River Rural Electrification Association has been working closely with government officials since the minister of energy ordered a review of the electrical industry. BRREA board chair Dan Astner told members at the organization’s annual general meeting June 30 that the BRREA was able to meet with a MLA team charged with doing the review and making recommendations, as well as the department of Alberta Agriculture and Rural Development, to determine some of the ways it can enhance the development of the rural community. “We came away feeling they have a willingness to change and truly have the interest of Albertans at heart,” said Astner, adding

the MLA team’s report is now in the hands of Minister McQueen. “There are many communities that are not currently experiencing the benefits seen by those closer to the urbanized centres.” Astner said historically, REAs played a major role in the development of the rural economy by bringing electricity to communities in which no one else wanted to make an investment. “There may be areas that we could continue to support in our rural communities so that they too could be part of and enjoy the Alberta benefit.” Astner said many parts of the legislation under which the BRREA operates have been in place for many years and needs updating to reflect today’s world. “They currently restrict

us from reaching our potential. We have received the assurance that our elected officials at the legislature are willing to address the areas of concern.” Astner said Alberta is unique in that it is the only province in Canada that has rural electrification associations. “For the most part the other provinces operate under Crown Corporations. As a result we have been in close contact with sister organizations in the United States. There are 960 of them throughout the U.S., with many of them exceeding 100,000 members. They have been in business many more years than us and many of them have expanded beyond being just distribution wire owners, resulting in significant benefits to their mem-

bers. Although they operate under somewhat different legislation, they are extremely willing to share whatever research they have compiled or any other information they may have that would be of benefit to us.” Astner promised that the BRREA will not lose sight of, or risk its core business of maintaining wires and supplying members with reliable, cost-effective power. REA has changed

Astner said the history of the Battle River Rural Electrification Association is one of members working together. “Initially, neighbours working with neighbours allowed everyone to experience the joy of having electrical power on their farms back in the late 1940s and early 1950s. The motivation to establish the local REA

varied from one individual to another but one by one REAs were formed across the province and the rural economy flourished. In the late 1990s the electrical industry went through a restructure. Generation, transmission, distribution systems and the retail sector were all separated, with the generation and retail sectors being deregulated. This stimulated neighbouring REAs to start working closely together, and in our case, we have experienced twenty-four REAs coming together to form a strong business unit to take advantage of opportunities available to us so that each of us members could benefit. We are now entering a time where we are hopeful that there will be even further benefits available to us as consumers.”

CAFCL thanks champions

CAFCL director Michelle Colombijn, left, presented an individual champions award to Janette and Dave Edwards at the association's annual meeting.

Camrose Association for Community Living treasurer Colin Atkinson (centre) presented a corporate community champion award to Vision Credit Union. Accepting the award were Vision Credit Union marketing and communications manager Paulette Robinson and associate vice-president of finance and strategy Dan Hautzinger. By Dan Jensen

Camrose Association for Community Living presented a 2014 individual champions award to Janette and Dave Edwards June 17. "The story of how Dave and Janette came to be donors is fascinating," said award presenter Michelle Colombijn. "It goes back years to shortly after Dave retired as a United Church minister and he and Janette moved to Camrose. Janette attended a women's evening group at the United Church here and that night CAFCL was giving a presentation. She went home that night and told Dave how impressed she was with the work that CAFCL does and said that they should help by making a donation. They have been giving to CAFCL ever since." The Edwards feel by giving to CAFCL they are able to be involved in something. "When we see CAFCL in the community we feel part of it," said Janette. "It is nice to be part of something." Corporate community champion

CAFCL presented its 2014 community champion award to Vison Credit Union. "Vision Credit Union has grown with its members over the past sixty three years and it helps communities grow and prosper as well," said CAFCL treasurer Colin Atkinson. "It is committed to the development and maintenance of communities. Just as it has a membership, it considers itself to be a member in every community it serves." Vision Credit Union has been sponsoring children to attend the CAFCL camp program for the past four years. "Someone once said it takes a village to raise a child," said Atkinson. "Thank you to the Vision Credit Union for continuing to help raise so many children in our community. You truly are a champion."

Wildrose policy I was away spending time with my wife's family over this past weekend when one of them told me that if the Wildrose Alliance formed government landowners would lose their rights. Now this really did disturb me. As a result, I looked up the Wildrose Alliance policy on property rights. As a member of this Party I did not want to support a Party that would want to take away the rights from property owners. I had to understand and know the truth about this policy. What I found really did not shock me. I really did not believe that the Party which I faithfully support would do such a thing. This is what I found on the website which belongs to the Wildrose Alliance Party. Wildrose members believe the government of Alberta should: further entrench individual property rights within the Alberta Bill of Rights and clarify all aspects of land rights in a single statutory "Land and property Rights Act"; eliminate land and watershed planning policies that are centrally planned and create regional plans that support the principle of coordinated local decision making. Now, there is nothing in the policy which even points to the taking away of rights from property owners. However, I might be missing something which is written before me. Maybe someone could write in and show me what I am missing?

The next election for Alberta is coming very soon. I do encourage every person who can vote to come out and vote. First of all, please do not just listen to what other people are saying about each party. Please always take the time to do your own research. Please remember that knowledge is power. Not everybody is interested in politics. However, the party which governs your province can make an impact on your life. Please do make sure that the party you vote for shares your values. You might be sorry to later wake up and find your world upside down. Lorne W.P Vanderwoude Camrose English in schools Lately there have been many letters to your paper about how Math should be taught in schools. There was a letter on the difference between French immersion and Francophone education. What I would like to know: is English still being taught in schools? I get so frustrated when I hear young people say things like "me and him went to the park." You wouldn't say "me" went to the park, or "him" went to the park, so why would you say "me and him went to the park"? Sometimes I read in some papers (not the Booster) reports on how someone was found "laying" in the street. The only thing "laying" anywhere should be a hen on her nest (hopefully in the chicken coop). How about the store advertising sofa's (apostrophe s) for sale? When did sofas get possessive? Well "dad-gum" it, I "reckon" as how that's all I have to say on "this here" subject. "Ya'll write in now, "ya" hear. Oops, is it possible I have been watching too many episodes (re-runs) of the Beverley Hillbillies, before those wonderful

Bailey Buckaroos come on stage at the Bailey? Sincerely, Yvonne Wagar, Camrose Cul de sacs needed As a west end Camrose resident, I read with interest some letters to the editor regarding traffic barricades. I feel a response with some facts is due. The streets in this neighborhood, especially 49 Avenue, were designed when no city development existed west of 66 Street. They were built to accommodate local traffic. They were not made to be the arterial roads they had become. These streets are narrow, residential ones. Grand Drive and 48 Avenue were intended for arterial traffic, and still are today. When I was house shopping in Camrose I considered buying a house along Grand Drive, but decided I did not like the high amount of traffic. I would have had to expect high traffic volume, noise, and exhaust fumes. That is why I settled in my current neighborhood. I do live across the street from a church and happily tolerate the increase in traffic when there is a church gathering because I knew the church was there when buying my house. Please consider that we west end residents are also inconvenienced and must take the long way around to access west end shopping or the golf course. I gladly tolerate that very minor inconvenience for a peaceful safe neighborhood. There are many neighborhoods in Camrose that have cul-de-sacs. These are in place to stop traffic short-cutting through residential areas. I applaud City council for installing the barricades. I implore council to do the right thing and construct the intended cul-de-sacs when the trial period for the barricades ends. Wayne Marko, Camrose

BRSD appoints Rita Marler as deputy superintendent Battle River School Division has announced the selection of Rita Marler as deputy superintendent. Mrs. Marler has a long history with BRSD, having served 25 years as a teacher and school administrator prior to taking on the role of division principal in March of 2014. “Rita’s experience with BRSD and grounded approach to pedagogy will serve her well in her new role as deputy superinten-

dent,” says acting superintendent Jamie McNamara. Mrs. Marler has a Master’s degree in Educational Leadership and is excited about helping lead Battle River forward – blending the division’s past work with the vision of Inspiring Education. She believes the school division can provide the best possible educational opportunities for students by fostering strong relationships between the families

it serves, communities and staff. “During her short tenure in a division level position, Rita has demonstrated authentic leadership,” says Mr. McNamara. “I know she will bring both clarity and vision to the school division.” Board chair Kendall Severson is also pleased with Mrs. Marler’s selection. “Rita is well known and respected throughout Battle River,” he says. “The board of trustees looks forward to

working more closely with her in the days ahead.” In addition to her long work history with BRSD, Mrs. Marler also has a lifetime of knowledge of the area, having grown up in Camrose and resided on a farm in Camrose County for more than 20 years. She and her husband, Dan, have two teenage daughters who are students at Bawlf School. Mrs. Marler will commence her new role on August 5, 2014. Immaculate bungalow! Upgrades throughout.

Armena Royals hang onto first place By Murray Green

The Armena Royals sit alone in first place of the Powerline Baseball League standings after 13 games. Armena blanked the Leduc squad 8-0 by scoring three runs in the fifth and adding four more in the sixth after scoring one in the fourth inning on July 8. The first run is all the

Royals needed as pitcher Ian Sherbaniuk tossed a complete game shutout. With a 9-4 record, the Royals are on pace to advance to the playoffs with one game left against the Ryley Rebels. However, the order of finish won’t be decided until a few more games are played. The Holden Blue Jays are in second followed by the

Beaumont Angels and Leduc Milleteers. Ryley, with several make-up games to play, is still in the hunt for a playoff spot. Bardo and Camrose round out the standings. Ryley will play in Camrose on July 15 and host Armena on July 16 as they attempt to catch up. Semifinal playoff games will begin later this month.

Rose and Lily show ready to go Emergency Training By Cathie Bartlett

Calling all gardeners and anyone interested in viewing some beautiful flowers. The annual Rose City Rose & Lily Show and Tea will soon be here. The Camrose and District Horticultural Society is busy gearing up for this ever-popular event and invites the public to enter and/or attend. This year’s show is set for July 17 at the Masonic Hall, 5021-48 Street. Come out between 2 and 7 p.m. to see the entries and who the winners are in the various classes. There is always a delightful array of blooms in a variety of arrangements – you’ll like what you see and just one tour of the show won’t be enough; you’ll want to go around for a second time if not a third. Then be sure to stop for a cup of tea and a few pastries and a visit with fellow show-goers. The show is open to anyone who grows roses and/ or lilies – or photographs them, or features them in

artwork or crafts. There’s a multitude of classes to enter; pick up a booklet and entry form at Pedersen’s Florists or Frankie’s Flowers. Entries must be in between 8:30 a.m. and 10 a.m. on the 17th for judging before the show opens. As for the judging, the Danish system is used. This means each exhibit is evaluated according to standards for the class in which it is entered, rather than being judged against, or compared to, the other exhibits in the class. Points are granted on a scale of one to ten for each standard involved, and all entries (except for those disqualified) get some monetary return depending on the number of points accumulated. Prizes will be presented at 7 p.m. In addition to the ribbons for first, second and third place in each category, there are special awards for Best Shrub Rose, Best Hybrid Tea Rose, and Best First Time Exhibitor. What’s

more, a new award – Best Lily – has just joined the roster. The new addition is sponsored by Lynette Westfall, of Valley K Ranch. Society president Diane Howes says she and fellow members are looking forward to another great show. “Last year it was our first time at the Masonic Hall. It was a lovely bright venue with easy access. It showed the flowers really well.” The show is just one of the ways the society is involved in the community. Society members tend the courtyard at Rosehaven Care Centre all summer and prune the roses at the Bill Fowler Visitor Information Centre and the Memorial Rose Garden along Mirror Lake. Each spring the society holds a plant sale at the Farmers’ Market, when members offer slips and cuttings to the public at bargain prices. As well, the society keeps in touch with the Heritage Railway Station and Park.

Quiet waters, bullrushes needed to keep bird on Alberta lakes Bev Betkowski University of Alberta

A declining bird species recently listed by the Alberta government as threatened in status is managing to survive as it shares heavily developed lake habitat with humans, but care must be taken to preserve its breeding grounds, say University of Alberta researchers. A study co-authored by U of A scientists Mara Erickson and Professor Mark Boyce indicates that the western grebe is able to persist on lakes with shoreline development, while at the same time showing a definite link with the preservation of bulrushes as cover for nests and quiet nesting waters. The findings, published recently in PLOS One, also note that the grebes are less likely to persist on boreal forest lakes, which are on the northern boundaries of their range. The reasons are unknown, but Alberta is also seeing a rapid decline in two other waterbird species from the same region. Various research is underway to explore the complexities associated with climate change and its effect on the birds, noted Boyce, based in the U of A Faculty of Science. The study analyzed populations of the western grebe on 43 Alberta lakes known to support the bird over the past 40 years, and found that they still persist on 63 per cent of those lakes. The red-eyed water bird, known for its pattering courtship dance across the waves, is found only in North America and is designated as a threatened species under the Province of Alberta’s Wildlife Act. Since 1970, it has disap-

peared from almost half of the Alberta lakes it used to inhabit, and also from traditional nesting sites in California and British Columbia. Lakes that are a summer haven for vacationers are also the same habitat chosen by the bird, which prefers deep, large, fish-filled waters. As a result, limiting recreational development is necessary to help conserve the bird’s dwindling numbers, said Erickson, who conducted the study for her master’s thesis. “There is the risk of losing brood-rearing habitats if steps aren’t taken to prevent disturbances caused by clearing of crucial shoreline vegetation like bulrushes,” she noted. Including wavefree buffer zones in conservation management strategies is also a way to minimize disturbance to reed beds needed by the birds to nest and raise their young, she said. “The birds will do fine on developed lakes so long

as people respect the critical habitat,” noted Boyce. “Cottage owners and developers should take care to minimize disturbance near western grebe colonies, especially in June, to avoid disturbing nesting birds,” he added. Such intrusions may cause the adults to flee their nests, leaving eggs vulnerable to predators like gulls and ravens. The study’s findings demonstrate the importance of identifying factors related to the persistence of a species—its ability to constantly survive at a site over time—as an important step in effective conservation management, Erickson noted. The study was supported by the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada, the Alberta Conservation Association, the North American Waterfowl Management Plan and the Alberta Sport, Recreation, Parks and Wildlife Foundation.

Centre leaves AHS with a legacy

Sandra Marini, manager, and Natasha Schiebelbein, team lead, with Alberta Air Ambulance and IFT Strategy at Alberta Health Services, and Chris Senaratne, dean, and Cheryl Cameron, instructor with Lakeland College Emergency Training Centre, are pictured in front of the fixed wing training prop that Lakeland donated to AHS. By Dan Jensen

The Camrose campus of the Lakeland College Emergency Training Centre is leaving a valuable legacy. A training prop that has been used by the centre’s paramedic students for the last three years to simulate the size and motion of an aircraft was donated by Lakeland College to the Alberta Health Services Emergency Medical Services program June 24. “The program is being shut down due to budget restraints, so rather than let the prop go idle we thought we would be better to donate it to a group that will use it for the enhancement of students in the province,” said Lakeland College Emergency Training Centre dean Chris Senaratne. Lakeland employees built the prop from the fuselage of a King Air 200, an aircraft commonly used as a fixed wing air ambulance. “We brought it here because the medical programming was always running out of the Camrose facility,” said Senaratne. “We are not aware of any other training facility in Western Canada that has a fixed wing training prop.” Thanks to a hydraulic system, the prop can replicate various aircraft motions, including take-off, landing and air turbulence. “It’s great for practicing safe patient care during flight as well as loading and unloading patients in tight surroundings,” said Senaratne. Provincial Air Ambulance interim executive director Gordon Blades said the fuselage will become part of the air ambulance and emergency medical services patient care simulation program. “The prop was intended for student education and development and it will continue to be used in that exact capacity.” AHS EMS intends to outfit the prop with additional equipment so its staff can practice a variety of in-flight scenarios. It will be housed at the AHS air ambulance operations facility located near the Edmonton International Airport but it can be transported to other sites as needed. The Lakeland College paramedic training program was offered primarily online, with training days in Camrose. “We have one student who is still completing her practicum but she will be finished by the end of July, so we will be having just that student and a contracted staff person who will be attending to that student’s needs,” said Senaratne. The paramedic training program was started by Augustana at the Richard Husfloen Centre 12 years ago but found a new home in the old fire hall in 2009 after it was transitioned to Lakeland. “We have had 30 paramedic students go through the program every year since 2009,” said Lakeland Emergency Training Centre instructor Cheryl Cameron. “We have also put through about 20 EMTs.” Established in 1913, Lakeland College serves more than 7,500 students every year at its campuses in Vermilion and Lloydminster, and through online and off-site programs and courses. Lakeland offers credit programming in the areas of agricultural sciences, business, energy and petroleum technology, environmental sciences, fire and emergency services, health and wellness, human services, interior design technology, trades and technology and university transfer.

Camrose Community Services staff worked with Dr. Glynnis Hood and her team of students last week to install levellers on the pond just south of Bethany Brookside. By Dan Jensen

The City of Camrose is taking a new approach to the way it manages beavers and the dams they create. Camrose Community Services staff worked with Augustana Faculty associate professor of environmental studies Dr. Glynnis Hood and her team of students last week to install a pair of pond levelers on the waterway just south of Bethany’s Brookside in an effort to reduce the amount of damage that beaver dams can cause to property, health and safety. Pond levelers create a permanent leak through beaver dams that beavers are not able to stop. “We put big pipes through the dam and surround both ends where the water enters and exits with submerged wire cages so the beavers can’t dam them up,” explained Camrose Leisure Services parks director Chris Clarkson. “When the beavers hear the water rushing through the pipe in the dam them try to add more to the dam around the pipe.” The level of the water in the pond is determined by how high the pond levelling pipe is placed within the dam. “The water goes through the pipe when it reaches a certain level in the pond,” said Clarkson.”The water will flow through the pipe unless the pond level drops below the peak of the pipe. In that way it levels off the ponds to an appropriate level so that the water doesn’t affect City infrastructure and cause problems with owners of private property.” The City of Camrose has had a running battle with beavers for the last 50 or 100 years. “We monitor the area (Stoney Creek) from the sewer pump station down below the Valleyview area to 54 Avenue very closely, especially during high water events, because the dams can back up water in various areas and cause damage to City infrastructure (bridges and ski trails) and private property on the

north end,” said Clarkson, adding that if water reaches above the level of the manhole to the sanitary sewer system (sometimes located in a pond), it can cause the lift pumps to work harder to keep up with the increased flow. “What we often find ourselves doing is removing dams by dynamiting them or trapping and removing the beavers from the area, only to see them come back again a few months later.” Clarkson is optimistic that the new pond levelers will save the City time and money in removing the dams and managing the beaver population. “We will still have to manage the populations because you can get an overabundance of them when they are allowed to stay in areas for a long time,” he said, “but having the pond levellers means we won’t have to go out all the time to knock out some of the dams.” Dr. Hood, who is an aquatic ecologist and wildlife biologist, has installed pond levelers in several areas in the province with high levels of success, including the Cooking Lake/Blackfoot provincial recreation area, that experienced chronic flooding as a result of beaver dam construction. “The (Cooking Lake/ Blackfoot) trails have been absolutely dry for over three years since the system was put in,” commented Dr. Hood. “We (herself and her student team) now have at least 12 sites on Cooking Lake/Blackfoot and just this year Beaver County approached us and asked us if we would start a project like we did there.” Dr. Hood came up with the idea for the pond leveling system, which is modelled after the Clemson Beaver Pond Leveller, developed by the department of aquaculture, fisheries and wildlife at Clemson University, to address the frustration of some private property owners, who, in an attempt to prevent beaver damage, have drained ponds with high bio-

diversity levels right down to the mud flats, sometimes during breeding season for amphibians. “I thought I could tell people not to do things like that but that in addition to doing so I should probably find a solution for them,” she said. “This system at least gives them an alternative.” Dr. Hood said the pond leveller system will keep the water in the Brookside pond at least a foot below the sanitary system outfall. “It will keep the water in the pond so that the amphibians, waterfowl, riparian songbirds and aquatic invertebrates can all stay here. Beavers can even stay here and we won’t have any chronic flooding like we had before where it is interfering with sewer outfalls.” Dr. Hood and fellow Augustana professor Dr. Varghese Manaloor have just finished a cost benefit analysis and determined there can be considerable savings using pond leveller system as opposed to using manpower to remove the dams through backhoe rentals and dynamite. “The cost (of removing the dams through manpower and equipment) can run in the tens of thousands of dollars if not even more than that in certain areas,” she said. “The levellers are used quite a bit in the United States. There are a couple of fellows that have companies there and one of them was even flown to Poland, where European beavers have been introduced, to install levellers there.” Clarkson said that now the City knows the proper installation procedure it will be installing pond levellers in other parts of Camrose where they might prove to be helpful. “All it takes is about $600 in materials and staff time,” he said. “All you do is dig out a pice of the dam, look at what level you want the water level to be at, and place the pipes in the dam at that level. Then hopefully everything levels off eventually as the water starts going through.”

Food shelves becoming bare By Murray Green

The Camrose Neighbor Aid Center food shelves are starting to look like the toy section at a large department store shortly after Boxing Day. “Our clients do go down a little in the summer. We still have about 120 clients who need food, but the donations are down at this time of year and we could use some help filling the shelves that are low,” said program director Jo-Anne Tweed. “We are in need of a lot of different foods.” The shopping list includes canned fruit, cereal, canned vegetables, tomato sauce, tuna or canned meat, peanut butter, store purchased jam, crackers, pork and beans, cookies, ketchup, mustard and relish. The community is very supportive of the food provided by Neighbor Aid, but most of the drives by businesses, clubs and school functions happen in the winter. “The large drives do tend to happen in the winter and now we have gone through most of that food. We still have small individual donations, but we

don’t have big drives in the summer to continue to stock the shelves,” added Jo-Anne. “We also accept fresh garden vegetables and packaged frozen meat. Our freezers are getting low as well. That means ground beef, chicken and small hams. We are in short supply of personal hygiene products such as shampoo and deodorant too.”

Donations are accepted on weekday mornings from 9 a.m. to noon at the 452554 Street Neighbor Aid location. Cheques are welcome that are made out to Camrose Neighbor Aid Center as well as cash to purchase perishables. If you have a big supply of food notify the center at 780-679-3220, so volunteers can help receive the food.

Sifton students learn basics of running a business By Dan Jensen

Students in Craig Jensen's Grade 6 Junior Achievement class at Sifton School are a little more familiar with the highs and lows involved in running their own business. Helped along by Kirk Jensen, a retired Edmonton businessman, students formed a company called Ready, Set, Rescue, which sold hot dogs, animal crackers, orange drink and face painting at a Sports Day June 6 and wound up raising $1,800 for the charity Canine Second Chance. "I think it really made us come together as a class for a cause we cared about, in this case the animals," said Sara Scott. "It was a bumpy ride but we got through it," said Noah Koch. The company's president was Hope Maron, who admitted there is more to running a business than she initially thought. "The hardest thing was probably trying to get hold of people (sponsors) said Maron. "We talked to several people." The students were divided into five committees responsible for set up and take down, accounting, sales, promotions and merchandise. Andrew Fletcher headed the accounting committee, which counted all the money after the sale ended. "It was nerve-wracking knowing that you were the person responsible for collect-

ing the money and giving it," aid Fletcher. The students considered a variety of businesses before eventually deciding on one that would help distressed animals. "It had the most variety of animals so we liked that one the most," said Fletcher. The students ran into one problem when they realized that their business would need a licence before they could raffle a stuffed dog. "It is illegal to sell tickets to minors â&#x20AC;&#x201C; it would be considered gambling," said Craig. "Also the value of the prize had to be at least 20 per cent of the projected ticket sales. Giving a raffle ticket for anyone buying food or drink, having face painting done, or giving a donation would also be illegal as this

would be considered indirect sales of tickets." "It was really a surprise when we learned we couldn't raffle off the stuffed dog," said Shyaida Beauregard. While most of the decisions made by Ready, Set, Rescue were arrived at through consensus, not everyone agreed with them all of the time. One student admitted that he felt some of the decisions just didn't feel right and that the business could have done things better than the way that was agreed upon. "I really just sat back and let it go," he said. "It was something that there was a lot of choices for and we ended up having about five different things we could vote on." Kirk shared a number of his own experiences with

running a business in his role as facilitator. "Whenever there is a real life experience you can bring from a business that you have they can relate more to that," said Kirk, who would let students run with their own ideas as much as possible and occasionally interject something to make sure they were staying on task. Kirk was impressed with what the Junior Achievement program was able to teach the students. "It was amazing how what they were going through was what a real businesses goes through," he said. "At first there was everybody expressing their own ideas about what they wanted to do but in the end they all came together and it was a very democratic process. Hope did a great job of running the meetings. We

would have different motions and then we would vote. In the end they all agreed (on the idea) and bought into it. They did it for a great cause." The goal of the Junior Achievement program is to inspire and prepare young people to succeed in a global economy. Last year alone more than 243,000 students in over 400 communities benefitted from Junior Achievement programs delivered by over 14,500 dedicated volunteers who presented in excess of 232,000 hours of instructional time. Ready, Set Rescue sponsors included Dairy Queen, which provided the hot dogs, McDonald's, which provided the cups and orange drink syrup, Superstore, which provided $25 towards the buns, and Walmart, which provided $25 towards the animal crackers.

Ford embarking on 100 km ride for literacy By Murray Green

Alan Ford wants every child in the district to receive a good start to learning reading skills. He is going on his fifth bike tour to raise funds for Camrose Family Literacy on July 27. A recent community profile of early childhood development in Alberta suggests that Camrose and area pre-kindergarten children are close to the provincial average, but they still need help with development. "The numbers show that we still need to focus on teaching children how to read at a very early age. It is important that mother's read to their children right from when they are born," said Alan. Less than half (46 per cent) of kindergarten-aged children in Alberta are developing appropriately in all five areas of development. Camrose is at 50.8 per cent, based on 2011 information. The five areas of development are physi-

Alan Ford

cal health and well-being, social competence, emotional maturity, language and thinking skills, and

communications and general knowledge. While the national average in experienc-

ing great difficulty in one problem in development is at 25.4 per cent, Camrose (city) falls in at the 23.5 per cent range. In multiple experiences of great difficulty, Canada is at 12.4 per cent and Camrose is at 12.3 per cent. The areas south of Camrose and the city itself had better results than the area north of Camrose and the Tofield area, according to the study. "Before we wanted to help with literacy for children, but the studies prove that we need to do more in improving literacy and early childhood development," added Alan. "Camrose Family Literacy has a Read To Me program that is for newborns that arrive at the hospital. The mother receives a book bag with items in it and a book(s) to read to the child. This ride is for me to raise funds for that program. They have expanded to have books for children who are heading into kindergarten," said Alan. "The health unit is a critical player because they know when

a new mother comes in for the baby's first vaccination. That's when we can pass on the books. The Battle River School Division also helps sponsor the bags." The local cyclist will travel 100 kilometres on his tour that begins and ends in Morinville. "The ride is organized by the Edmonton Bicycle and Touring Club and this is the 20th year. It is not a race. It is a ride, called Le Tour de l'Alberta. They have shorter and longer rides." The distances are 50, 100, 150 and 180 kilometres."I start at 9 a.m. and usually finish by 12:30 p.m. and it is well organized. They have support vehicles and motorcycles for mechanical problems and control the traffic," said Alan. "The tour started as a fun event, but a lot of people use it to raise funds for various organizations." To support Camrose Family Literacy phone Lynne Hartwick at 780672-8754 or to sponsor Alan call him at 780-281-2382.

Janice Emma Sheets Janice Sheets of Camrose, formerly of Kelsey, passed away on Monday, July 7, 2014 at the age of 83 years. Janice Emma Sheets was born on August 24, 1930 to Rene and Marie VanHullebush at North Battleford, Saskatchewan. She was the second youngest in a family of seven children who lived in a two-storey log house. Janice enjoyed riding her horse each day to the one-room schoolhouse (Nolin) just down the road. She worked hard raking the farmyard daily to make sure it was up to her Dad’s specifications. She enjoyed the typical farm lifestyle of feeding animals, tending the garden and took pleasure in the simple things life had to offer. Her family frequently invited pilots and officers over for supper from the nearby air force base. This provided her with an opportunity to begin a stamp collection. She also liked to cut and save articles out of the Country Girl magazine and followed the royal family through a scrapbook she created. Janice also spent a lot of time helping her older sister Julienne cook and clean house for her 11 children. Some of her nieces and nephews were very close to her own age. When Janice was old enough, she moved into an apartment in town and was a medical records clerk for the local hospital. It was during this time that she met her true love Lyle Sheets. He was in the area working on an oil rig. He set eyes on Janice and knew instantly that this was the girl he was going to marry. And he did. And it worked for a wonderful 56 years until Lyle’s passing. After getting married, Janice moved to Lyle’s family farm in 1955 for a year and then moved to Kelsey where she and Lyle eventually made their home on an acreage just adjacent to the townsite. Janice was very active in the local curling club, the birthday club and the CWL. She worked tirelessly as the community hall caretaker alongside Lyle for close to six decades. On numerous occasions, she served hot food at the curling rink, manned the booth at softball sports days and provided lunch for functions at the hall. Janice loved gardening and growing flowers and spent many hours in her yard. Janice and Lyle had two children, Janine and Jerry. It was always very important to Janice that birthdays and other special celebrations took place on their actual day. She worked tirelessly to make sure that happened for everyone. She thoroughly enjoyed entertaining and made their home a welcome place for guests. The coffee was always on. Janice was head of housekeeping at Daysland Hospital for several years. Cleaning was just part of her personality. Her house was always in order; she even vacuumed the garage regularly. Janice never asked for anything for herself and was happiest when she was doing something for others. She had a warm gentle spirit and gave out smiles freely. Janice was predeceased by her mother and father; two sisters (Yvonne and Julienne); and her husband Lyle. She is survived by her daughter Janine (Ken Klevgaard); her son Jerry; grandchildren Martin (Jen) Klevgaard, Kate Klevgaard and Annette Klevgaard; brothers Raymond (Jean) VanHullebush and Gus (Terry) VanHullebush; and sisters Sherry Kellam and Alice Mills. Your prayers, comfort and support are greatly appreciated and gratefully acknowledged. Spend each day showing kindness to others just as Janice would have done. A prayer vigil was held on Thursday, July 10, 2014 at 7:00 p.m. from Burgar Memorial Chapel (4817-51 Avenue, Camrose). A Memorial Mass was held on Friday, July 11, 2014 at 1:00 p.m. from St. Francis Xavier Roman Catholic Church (5010-48A Avenue, Camrose) with Rev. Larry Pederson officiating. Inurnment has taken place in Valleyview Cemetery, Camrose. Memorial contributions are gratefully accepted to the Heart and Stroke Foundation.

Impact of impaired driving felt by many generations By Dan Jensen

Don’t expect any leeway from RCMP officer Trent Cleveland if he catches you driving impaired. “My brother, who is also a police officer, and I are pretty heavy on impaired drivers, said Cleveland, whose grandfather, Norman Neil Cleveland, was one of four men from Camrose who were killed by an impaired driver while driving in a car on a curving stretch of Highway 21 just south of Hay Lakes on July 26, 1969. “I don’t want to say I have more passion when it comes to dealing with impaireds, but if I catch one I have zero tolerance. I have talked to

my brother and he is the same way.” The impaired driver was an 19-year-old male from Elnora who was driving a pickup truck with a barrel of gas in the back. He was also killed in the collision. Cleveland’s grandfather and the other three gentlemen – Paul Alexander Kehoe, Keneth Ardell Rotto, and Frank Brian Brown – were travelling to Edmonton for a Klondike Days event. “One of them was still alive when the medical teams arrived, but he later passed away in the hospital,” said Cleveland, adding the vehicles exploded

into flames upon collision. “Apparently his wife was a nurse who was working a shift at the hospital when they brought him in.” The son of Norman – Cleveland’s father – was 15 and the oldest child in his family when the news was received. His last memory of doing something with his father was watching Apollo 11 land on the moon a few days before. “He told me he could remember hearing the sirens going out of town and wondering who had died,” said Cleveland. “When he got home he found out that one of them was his dad.” In total, the crash left

11 children without their dads. Cleveland was reminded of the crash on several occasions when he worked as an RCMP officer in Camrose before being transferred to Wetaskiwin. “I had quite a few people bring it up,” he said. “I bumped into quite a few seniors who asked me if I was any relation to the Cleveland who died. I had always known it was a big deal for our family, but I didn’t realize how much it impacted others as well.” Cleveland has the opportunity these days to talk to students about the dangers of impaired driv-

ing when he goes into the schools as a DARE program instructor. “The message I give to them is think twice before consuming alcohol and then getting behind the wheel of a vehicle because the people that are affected are not just the ones in the crash but many future generations of family members and friends.” Cleveland feels there are too many who view impaired driving as a victimless crime. “They really don’t think too much about it until something happens. I just don’t think that people realize the consequences.”

Hockey Development Camp focuses on improving skills By Murray Green

Tim Green wants young hockey players to improve their skills this summer. "Camrose is a hockey hotbed for developing children into better hockey players. I want to help the sport grow. You look at the higher levels and Camrose is represented," said Tim. "It gives players a goal to achieve and improve. It isn't always about getting to the NHL (National Hockey League). It's about improving for the love of the game. The sport keeps children active in a learning environment. No matter what you do, you always want to give it your best effort. Physical activity in a learning environment is important to players." The Tim Green Hockey Development camps begin with five week-long sessions at the EnCana Arena from Aug. 4 to 8. The novice, bantam and midget divisions will provide 7.5 hours of onice development and 3.75 hours of off-ice instruction. "My instructors and I have a ton of experience in growing up with the sport we love. We want to pass that experience on. We have learned from different coaches and hockey schools growing up. We compiled everything we liked to put into this hockey school," added Tim. The atom and peewee category will offer 10 hours of ice time and 3.75 hours of off-ice instruction in an effort to give more skills in body

contact in the important age divisions. "The first week we focus on skill development and that touches on the aspects of the game. Players are on the ice twice a day and then we have off-ice sessions as well. We have added a goalie session, which is new this year," said Tim. All five age groups will receive coaching in skating, shooting, passing and puck handling. The atom and older groups will experience skating resistance using straps, parachutes and bungees. The weekend of the camps will concentrate of specific skills. On Aug. 9 and 10, two defence and two offence camps will offer tips and skill development in different areas of the game. Atom and peewee players will be grouped together, while bantam and midget players will learn together. "We wanted to add defence and offence camps. A lot of players feel they need to improve in certain areas of the game, instead of overall. These sessions are more in tune of what the players need to get better at," added the Camrose Kodiaks assistant coach, who is also helping at the Next Wave camp on the second week. "Offence and defence breaks down the positions in knowing where to be and how to improve." Extra ice time for skating will be available for novice to peewee players in the form of power skating.

Murray Green, Camrose Booster

Tim Green, left, of Tim Green Hockey Development accepts $1,500 from Lamb Ford assistant general manager Brett Denham to assist in sending two less fortunate players from the local area to a hockey camp.

"Skating is the most important part of the game," said Tim. "All players can become better with crossovers, tight turns, faster acceleration, agility and speed. There is so much to improve on with skating at the grassroots level. If you can get the skating down the rest will come." Power skating sessions will be offered from Aug. 11 to 15. Each age group will have 6.25 hours of ice time. Goalie specific instruction will also be provided.

For more information visit www.timgreenhockey.com. "We have three on three sessions. It is fun and it allows each player to handle the puck more and it helps players improve faster. You are touching the puck and being more creative with the puck," Tim said. Along with Tim, other instructors will be Tylor Keller (former Kodiaks, Vikings and semi-professional player), goalie coach David Ritz (former Vikings

goalie and current assistant coach), Justin Kirkland (recent Nashville Predators draft pick), Richard Petiot (former Kodiak and NHL player) and Dalton Reum (former Kodiak and current semi-professional player). "It is a bit of a younger crew then I am used to having, but they are experienced and will offer good advice," Tim concluded. Some of the camps are getting close to being full, so don't wait to avoid disappointment.

AJHL makes rule changes By Murray Green

SPORT STACKER

University of Alberta, Augustana Campus students/coaches Myles Ellert, left, and Braxton Fox helped Arden Hatt prepare for the Eastern Canadian Sport Stacking finals competition in Quebec on May 17. Sport stacking (also known as cup stacking or speed stacking) has both individual and team events where participants stack specialized plastic cups in specific sequences in as little time as possible. Competing in the 13- and 14-year-old boys’ division, Arden placed second in the individual cycle event (8.225 seconds), third in the 3-3-3 event, and fourth in the 3-6-3 event. His relay team placed second in the head-to-head competition, and third overall. With his doubles partner, he came in third place. Arden’s performance earned him an invitation to the AAU Junior Olympic Games in Iowa in July.

Most of the changes in the Alberta Junior Hockey League (AJHL) next fall will be in the way the game is officiated. The AJHL held its annual league meeting in Red Deer, May 23 and 24. Commissioner Ryan Bartoshyk completed site visits in all 16 markets throughout the 2013-14 season, and held team meetings with each franchise in an effort to evaluate the strengths and challenges of the league across the province. The data collected was shared with the teams during the meetings and resulted in productive discussions throughout all aspects of team and league operations. The 2014-15 regular season will commence on Friday, Sept. 5. The 480game schedule will include 16 teams participating in 60 regular season games apiece, including two games at the showcase in Spruce Grove from Sept. 25 to 27. The complete schedule will be announced in late June. The following rule changes will be implemented beginning in the 2014-15 season. Line change on icing – a team that is in violation of icing shall not be permitted

to make any player substitutions prior to the ensuing face-off. Should the offending team elect to utilize its team time-out at this stoppage of play, it is still not permitted to make any player substitutions. However, a team shall be permitted to make a player substitution to replace a goalkeeper who had been substituted for an extra attacker, to replace an injured player, or when a penalty has been assessed which affects the on-ice strength of either team. Puck Out of Play – when any player, excluding the goaltender, shoots or bats the puck directly out of the playing surface while in the defensive zone (including contact with the scoreboard, ceiling or any other facility specific objects that are determined out of play) except where there is no glass, the offending team is not allowed to change its onice personnel before the next face-off, which will occur in the offending team's defensive zone. The league will introduce a revised overtime format for the AJHL playoffs. If a game is tied after three regular periods of play, the teams shall now break for a 15 minute intermission then resume playing 20 minute

overtime periods. As per usual, the team scoring the first goal in overtime shall be declared the winner of the game. Following the 2013 AJHL AGM, the league established a committee to review the option of an AJHL draft. The committee presented an analysis of the concept, including format options, advantages, disadvantages, and the effects it has on player recruitment, registration and scouting. The board of governors voted against proceeding with the draft. Fort McMurray was selected as the host of the 2015 Crescent Point Energy Western Canada Cup in November, 2013. The host committee provided the board with a brief event update, which included positive progress in the areas of entertainment, sponsorship and community support. The champions of the BCHL, AJHL, SJHL, and MJHL will participate in a five-team tournament with the host Fort McMurray Oil Barons. The champion and the runner-up will both represent Western Canada at the 2015 RBC Cup National Junior A Championship. Continued on page 23

…a special summer feature In Camrose and area a significant number of women hold positions of power and prestige. Many others own their own small businesses or are key players in their respective companies. The Camrose Booster is profiling some of the best, the brightest and the most prominent women who work, employ and lead in the community of which we are all so proud. Watch for profiles in summer issues of the home team paper! If you would like to be a part of our next women in business issue, please call The Booster, 780.672.3142 and ask for Mike, Jeff, Sue or Ron.

Chris Zamora is a woman of vision, courage and determination. She recently celebrated the opening of her third store (in Sylvan Lake), a partnership with her brother. Her second store is in Wetaskiwin. She has seen firsthand the value of feeding her two dogs and cat quality food and treats. This desire led her to Global Pet Foods – a leading Canadian company! Global Pet Foods sources and sells private label, natural and holistic foods that are priced right. These foods must contain all natural ingredients and have no artificial preservatives. Many brands are exclusive to the chain and are from Canadian manufacturers. This policy certainly matches Chris’ philosophy for the feeding of Ella (a Maltese), Morgan (smooth Collie) and Simon – her Siamese cat. While Chris sells premium pet foods and an impressive assortment of pet treats and supplements, toys and accessories, a lot of her customers drop by her store on 48 Ave. in Camrose for pet advice or just to talk about their animals (which are very much welcome inside). As one passionate about animals, she can easily relate to problems others may be having. Chris is a huge supporter of the Battle River Protection Society, a member of the Chamber of Commerce in Camrose and Wetaskiwn, and loves spending time outdoors with her husband, Paul, a firefighter. In her spare time she enjoys the company of four-legged friends, knitting and quilting.

Gina Shiels, Owner Hearing Sense

We rely on our sense of hearing to communicate and if it’s compromised in any way, so is our quality of life. With over 18 years of experience as a Hearing Aid Practitioner, Gina Shiels, owner of Hearing Sense, sees firsthand the daily struggle that goes with hearing loss. “Hearing loss is a natural part of getting older, and is more common than you think,” notes Gina. Noise levels have increased everywhere. From hair dryers to leaf blowers, lawnmowers, snowmobiles, iPods®, surround sound speakers and more, we constantly expose our ears to damaging levels of noise. And that’s just at home. Our work environments are becoming increasingly loud as well. I see a lot of farmers, construction workers and people from the oil industry, whose hearing has been damaged by the equipment they use. In fact, more than 20% of all people with hearing challenges today are still in the workforce.” “Hearing Aid technology has vastly improved over the years, including the addition of Bluetooth compatible hearing aids. Modern designs are often hard to detect so most people don’t even know you are wearing hearing aids. There are more options than ever before,” says Gina. We pride ourselves on customer service. Every person is unique and we want to design a solution that works for each of them.” Suffering with hearing loss is a thing of the past. If you or a loved one is dealing with hearing loss, call for a consultation today. Duggan Mall, Camrose, 780.679.0900

Diane Calahoo, Owner

Kathleen Riggins,Co-owner,

It’s interesting how one stage of our life can just naturally lead into the next. Diane Calahoo had been doing reflexology for over 16 years and was very aware of how her clients’ state of health affected their quality of life. When the opportunity to start Camrose Ideal Weight Loss Center came along, she and husband Chris didn’t hesitate. They combined both businesses under one roof on Main Street and Diane couldn’t be happier. “I love what I do,” she simply states. “Seeing our clients making great health changes in their lives, reaching their goals and maintaining their new level of happiness is just wonderful.” Camrose Ideal Weight Loss Center is based on the principle of the Ideal Protein weight loss method which is a muscle-sparing fat-targeting four-step protocol, helping clients reach their goal weight. Clients get weekly support sessions from their accredited Ideal Protein health care professional, and receive weight and measurement progress analysis as well as ongoing nutritional education. Diane also firmly believes in the age-old adage of practicing what you preach. Using the principles and supplements of her Weight Loss Center, she lost 47 lbs. and continues to maintain her ideal weight. “Our products have wonderful flavours and textures, and our clients (including myself) think they taste great!”

It should probably come as no surprise that a woman who learned the basics of sewing as a small child would now be operating a popular store dedicated to this appealing hobby. Kathleen Riggins, and her husband Rocky purchased the main street Camrose store a couple of years ago, with assistance and advice from Roger and Ardelle Kerr, her parents, who are also the long-time owner-operators of Quilting From The Heart. With sewing and quilting being long-time passions in her family, Kathleen has excelled in teaching skills of the fascinating pastime, doing demonstrations of the machines she sells (in record numbers) and instructing classes. After high school Kathleen attended the University of Alberta where she earned a Bachelor of Commerce degree. Then, the couple jetted off to England for a full year. While there she worked in a busy quilting shop. “In England, there is considerably more quilting and sewing done by hand,” notes Kathleen. “In Alberta, the hobby has grown by leaps and bounds and leading-edge technology is highly sought after.” This means Kathleen is constantly learning and researching the newest and latest offerings in her chosen field. Kathleen and The Sewing Center are serving the marketplace extremely well with ever-expanding sales, service and satisfaction. A goal of the future is to have an increasing presence on-line and to expand their sales even further in Alberta 4944-50 Main Street, Camrose and beyond. Ph. 780.672.2732

positions is close with Stony Plain, Westlock and Sherwood Park also in the hunt with just three losses. The local team received a setback on July 8 as the Blackhawks had the first six batters reach base. They scored four runs in the first inning and cruised to a 7-1 victory. The Edmonton squad is putting itself into position as the team to beat in 2014. Pitcher Ryan Mehler suffered the loss, but went six and a third innings before giving way to reliever Joe Pasychnyk. Camrose pounded out 12 hits on way to a 10-5 victory over the Edmonton Warriors on July 3. Pasychnyk won the game on the mound for the Axemen in a relief appearance after starter Chase Martinig was forced to leave with a shoulder injury. Corey Epp came in but struggled as the Warriors collected four runs to close the gap to 8-4 after Camrose built up a comfortable lead. Brett Harke led the club in hitting by going three for four on the night. Bryan Toles, Kris Kushnerick and Ryan Petryshyn all had two hits each in support. Camrose will host the Barrhead Orioles in a doubleheader on July 13 beginning at 1:30 and 4 p.m. at Harry Andreassen Field in Kin Park. The Axemen will take on the Sturgeon Paladins in Bon Accord on July 17 and Stony Plain on July 23 before hosting the Edmonton Indians on July 29.

Camrose County tackles clubroot problem By Murray Green

Camrose County is taking a pro-active approach to controlling clubroot in area canola fields this summer. Last fall County council suggested the formation of a committee to create a policy to help control the disease before it spreads too far. Canola ad hoc committee spokesman Steve Cowan and County employee Mark Millang explained the policy proposal to council on June 10. "We suggest that Camrose County approve the proposed changes to the Clubroot of Canola policy 11.34 as recommended by the new committee," said Mark. "We wanted a policy that was both educational and hard-handed for those who don't follow best agricultural practices for the land. It is important to come up with a policy that is practical for canola producers and mindful for future producers of canola within the county, as well as something that Mark and the County could enforce," said Steve. "We want to have random inspections of canola fields to be conducted by the agricultural fieldman and his

appointed inspectors. Positive identification will be certified by a lab and be passed on to the landowner. Together the fieldman, landowner or occupant will discuss the steps necessary to take to control clubroot." Upon the policy receiving council's approval, the landowners or occupants within Camrose County who previously received a notice to control pests under the Agricultural Pests Act will be rolled into the conditions stated in the low incidence section. Identified landowners or occupants will enter into a Clubroot Management Plan with Camrose County prior to Jan. 1, 2015 to get the canola disease under control. A group of concerned ratepayers attended the November 2013 Agricultural Service Board meeting to voice their concerns with the current policy at which time Council identified, in the 2014 business plan agricultural services review, the need for an update. Applications for the committee were then received, members selected, and three meetings held.

An increase in inspection cost will be added to the 2014 budget, including capital expenses for tablets and software. The committee was in unanimous agreement with the proposed changes to the policy. The County will increase its effort in controlling the spread of clubroot. The proposed changes reward producers following best management practices while still regulating producers that chose to defy them. Clubroot will be monitored in three categories labelled low incidence, moderate and high incidence. Low incidence will include a plan focusing on education between the producer and the agricultural fieldman. Suggested best management practices will be introduced to reduce the spread of disease through the movement of soil and equipment. Moderate incidence will prohibit growth of canola, mustard, or other crops susceptible to clubroot infection for three years, so a rotation of crops will be suggested

to reduce the infection. The movement of soil and equipment will be under the best management practices to stop the spread of clubroot. In high incident areas the crops will be eliminated if no action is taken and a written notification of the location of the infested field will be mailed to all adjacent landowners of the affected property. "Any lab fees will be charged back to the landowner or occupant, according to our policy," said Steve. Trevor Miller, Brian Willoughby, Greg Gillespie, Paul King, Steve Gerlitz, Graham Backus, Alan Kruger, Brant Poyser, Kevin MacDonald, Dan O'Neil, Chris Ross, Victor Manolii of the University of Alberta, Dr. Stephen Strelkov of the U of A, Dr. Garry Peng of Agriculture Canada, Murray Hartman of AARD, Harry Brook of AARD, Roy Carlson, Matt Enright, Dan Bentley, Steve Cowan, Blaine Fenske, Patrick Hilgartner, Scott Keller, Doug Olstad, Gerald Pilger, Stevan Lindholm, James Augustin,

Don Harris and Gordon Schlaak were involved in finding solutions through the policy. Cleaning equipment before and after entering a field that may contain clubroot is strongly recommended. "This is a really good policy that protects landowners from the spread of the disease. It is easy to monitor and I move the recommended changes," said councillor Miller, prior to the motion being passed. "I think it is reasonable because it tries to help the farmer who doesn't have clubroot. We want everyone to be open about clubroot and report it, so steps can be taken. There are varieties that are more resistant to clubroot." Councillor Brian Willoughby wants producers to talk about the problem. "The last thing we want is for people to hide it in fear of repercussions," said Brian. "That's not the purpose, we want to stop clubroot from spreading." The Clubroot of Canola ad hoc committee met Feb. 12, March 14 and April 9.

Camrose area farmers hope for quieter hail season With Camrose-area crops finally seeded and starting to grow, farmers across the province are hoping for a quieter hail season this summer following record levels of hail damage over the past two years. “Last year marked the third highest amount of hail damage to crops across Alberta in our 77 years as a provincial hail insurer,” says Jackie Sanden, program coordinator with Agriculture Financial Services Corporation (AFSC). “Our branches reported 522 storm cells last year that pelted crops with hail from Fort Vermilion to the US border. The damage was widespread. Southern Alberta and ‘Hail Alley’ – which stretches westward along Highway 2 from Rocky Mountain House to Calgary, and eastward through Wheatland County – were particularly hard hit.” More than $257 million was paid out on more than 6,400 hail claims across Alberta last year, including Camrose County, through AFSC’s Straight Hail Insurance program and the Hail Endorsement rider that most farmers add to their crop insurance. The highest claim year was in 2012 when $445.6 million was paid on more than 8,400 claims. “Alberta’s top three years for record hail damage have all occurred in the last six years,” says Sanden, noting 2008 marked the second highest year with $263 million in claims paid out. Ingredients for Hail

now be insured for $325 per dryland acre, and $425 on irrigated crops. Full details are available at www.afsc. ca,” she adds. Growing Concern

Following record hail damage to crops across Alberta over the past two years, AFSC is increasing the coverage on its Straight Hail Insurance program to help farmers better protect their crops as they brace themselves for the coming hail season, says Jackie Sanden.

says wet spring weather and unusually high humidity over the last few years have likely contributed to the amount of hail in Alberta lately. “Humidity and ground moisture fuel thunderstorms that produce hail,” says Kulak, noting other ingredients include heat and a trigger to set everything in motion. “That trigger can be simple daytime heating, causing warm air to rise and mix with cooler air above. Another trigger is the jet stream – that river of air that storms tend to follow – which flows over the mountains and right through the middle of Alberta every summer,” he explains.

The mountains play a huge role in thunderstorm formation. They’re the reason Alberta tends to get more hail than anywhere else in Canada, says Kulak. “You can be sure Alberta will get hail this year. The question is how much,” he says, noting every part of the province is susceptible to hail. “The wetter things get in June, the more storms we can end up with because the moisture just keeps recycling itself.” Straight Hail Coverage Increased

As farmers brace themselves for the coming hail season, AFSC is increasing the coverage levels offered

through its Straight Hail Insurance program. “Producers have asked us to boost the coverage caps to help them protect their crops and cover their hail risk more effectively. As such, we’re raising the maximum coverage farmers can insure on most crops to better reflect today’s higher crop values and rising input costs,” says Sanden. Coverage has increased by a minimum of $75 per dryland acre and $175 on irrigated crops, with significant increases on potatoes, says Sanden. “We’ve also created new coverage categories for higher-value crops like chickpeas and canola, which can

Tyler Schultz, who grows 2,100 acres of grain near Camrose, says hail has become a bigger concern on his farm over the past few years. “It seems like we’re getting more and more hail,” he says." While he avoided hail last year, Schultz says a couple of his barley fields were battered by a hailstorm in 2012. “The crops were really advanced. They were just starting to head out, so there wasn’t time for them recover. They were a complete write-off.” Schultz says he puts Straight Hail insurance on his crops in June to top up the Hail Endorsement rider on his crop insurance, and ensure his costs are covered if he’s hailed out again. He says he likes the increased coverage levels this year because he can protect his crop value more fully against hail. “Inputs are costly and with the capital we’re carrying, we want to ensure if the worst-case scenario happens that we’ve got adequate coverage to continue to be profitable,” he explains. A growing number of farmers Auto-Elect Straight Hail coverage with their crop insurance in April, says Sanden, pointing out it gives them a two per cent premium discount. Continued on page 31

Horner presents $2,000 to BRCF in support of Reading University

ALL Dave Horner, left, owner of Business First Financial Solutions, presented cheques for $2,000 and $500 to the Battle River Community Foundation’s Reading University program and administrative endowment fund respectively. Accepting the cheque on behalf of the Battle River Community Foundation was director Chad Kroeger. By Dan Jensen

Business First Financial Solutions owner Dave Horner presented a cheque for $2,000 to the Battle River Community Foundation in support of the Reading University program May 15. “I’m a believer in giving back to the community in which you live,” explained Horner. “This community and the Battle River region gives to me non-stop so I want to give back to them in whatever way I can, whether it is through the Reading University or something else.” Reading University is a four-week summer program designed to increase the literacy skills of children in Grades 1 and 2 who are not yet reading at grade level, so that they may succeed in school and beyond. The program’s three stakeholders – Battle River Community Foundation, Battle River School Division and the Augustana Faculty of the University of Alberta – along with their supporters, believe that in order to meet the challenges of the changing world, students need to be literate. They also know that literacy is more than reading, writing and basic sums – that it enables people to learn and comprehend, think critically, solve problems, share information and interact with others. Horner, who also presented a cheque for $500 to the Battle River Community Foundation administrative endowment fund to assist with the Foundation’s office expenses, believes that while reading is considered an essential and elementary skill, there are still too many children who are leaving school without the reading and literacy skills they require to be successful in the modern world. “Giving to the Reading University is a way to support kids and their education,” he said. “If you are able to help kids read you can prevent ignorance.” Horner has been offering his financial skills and services to the community for the last year. “I came here initially in 2006 to attend Canadian Lutheran Bible Institute after my wife had passed away in 2005,” he said. “I moved out to another community after that, but decided to come back here.” The Battle River Community Foundation exists to support projects in East Central Alberta which benefit the local communities and have a positive impact on the future. Grants from the Foundation are made possible through the generosity of individual donors and organizations that have created endowment funds. The principal of these endowment funds is kept intact and the income is made available annually to support local projects and organizations. Some grant funding is also made available by generous donors who make annual gifts to the Battle River Community Foundation. Since it was founded in 1995 the Battle River Community Foundation has granted more than $2,250,000 to support important local initiatives and organizations.

Augustana celebrates first decade with U of A A look at how a historic merger strengthened a university, community and province Stories by Christopher Thrall

On July 1, 2004, two of Alberta’s oldest educational institutions joined forces: Augustana University College in Camrose – formerly the Camrose Lutheran College – merged with the University of Alberta. Ten years later, while the college’s heritage is still recognizable in the campus buildings and liberal arts and sciences curriculum, the benefits of this historic merger have breathed new life into Augustana, the university, the Camrose area and the entire province.

Alberta Learning Minister Dr. Lyle Oberg (centre), Augustana board of regents chair Stan Gooch (left) and officials from the University of Alberta signed the historic document merging the U of A and Augustana on June 29, 2004.

Celebrating construction of Founders’ Hall Camrose Lutheran College was founded in 1910 by an association of Norwegian Lutheran congregations to offer residential high school education. The school began offering firstand second-year university transfer courses after the Second World War, and became Alberta’s first privately run degree-granting

institution in 1985. By the time of the merger, Augustana served 1,000 students annually from across Canada and some 28 countries worldwide. One of Canada’s premier teaching and research institutions, the U of A was established in 1908. The university has grown in Edmonton from the single

North Campus to include the francophone Campus SaintJean, agricultural studies on South Campus, and Enterprise Square downtown. At the time of the merger, it served nearly 35,000 graduate and undergraduate students within more than 370 programs. Augustana remains the sole U of A campus outside Edmonton.

Founders’ Hall was still under construction when students posed for this photo.

Merger was several years in the making A merger of these two century-old institutions was several years in the making. U of A provost and vicepresident (academic) Carl Amrhein—who still serves in the same role today—was one of those integral to the process. “Augustana shares the University of Alberta’s commitment to serving the community with the highest educational standards, and we are proud to have them as part of the University of Alberta family,” said Amrhein in 2004. “We saw tremendous goodwill and co-operation between staff at both institutions during the complex merge process, with dedicated teams addressing countless details from academic programs, to computing systems, to staff agreements and infrastructure.” “The support from the senior administration at the U of A was tremendous and visionary,” said political studies professor Roger Epp, who would go on to become the first dean of Augustana Campus. “There is value in offering degrees embedded in different settings. Augustana has always maintained a broad liberal arts and interdisciplinary focus on our rural campus, alongside a curriculum based on the research and teaching strengths of our faculty. Difference is good for the university.” Augustana interim president Ted Langford’s careful planning during the negotiating year included several agreements. The Augustana University College board requested that Augustana continue to focus on undergraduate liberal arts and sciences, that there be a centre for the

study of religion in public life and an ongoing chaplaincy presence, and that all Augustana employees would be offered employment within the university. To finalize the deal, the Government of Alberta committed to a significant investment in the campus to clear debt, increase Augustana’s operating budget and update facilities across the campus – including a new library, opened in 2009.

“One size doesn’t fit all,” said then U of A president Rod Fraser during the 2004 signing ceremony in Camrose. “There are rural or Aboriginal students for whom the thought of attending classes that have more students than the population of their hometown can be frightening. Some students prefer to take their degree in a smaller learning institution.”

Augustana quickly adapted its degree programs to suit U of A requirements in arts, sciences, music and management, while maintaining its characteristic liberal arts and sciences approach. “Following the merger, we began offering the Augustana Advantage,” says Dean Allen Berger from his office in the new Forum Building, where he can simultaneously watch construction on the new Performing Arts Centre and renovations to the century-old Founders’ Hall. “Here, students can earn an undergraduate degree from one of the top five universities in Canada – one of the top hundred in the world. But they do so in a unique setting characterized by a close-knit residential community, small class sizes, supportive relationships with faculty and staff mentors, and rich opportunities for international study, community-service learning, outdoor experiences, interdisciplinary work, and undergraduate research.” Ten years later, the vision that Chester Ronning and others had for Camrose Lutheran College is still present in the campus commitment to the Augustana Core of liberal arts and sciences education and a mission to educate the whole person. Founders’ Hall is receiving a facelift for its next hundred years of service. Augustana Campus celebrated its centenary in 2011, which might not have been possible without the merger.

Benefits of the merger to the university, community and province

One decade down, many more to come “The merger saved historic Augustana for the community, for its employees and, most of all, for present and future generations of students,” said Stan Gooch, the last Chair of the AUC Board, in 2007. Current Dean Allen Berger adds: “There is no other residential campus in Canada where a student can earn a bachelor’s degree from one of the top five universities in Canada – one of the top 100 universities in the world – in a community the size of Camrose.“ Berger sees Augustana playing an especially important role in helping to develop the next generation of leaders for rural and Aboriginal communities across the province. The campus also aspires to develop its role in areas such as international education, community service learning, place-based education, undergraduate research, wilderness education, and leadership development.

The University of Alberta prides itself on Augustana’s role within the larger institution. “Augustana is a jewel,” said President Indira Samarasekera upon her first visit. “The small campus residential setting is a privilege for Albertans. The merger is a two-way street as both institutions can benefit and learn from each other: larger universities can lose their connection to a community. Augustana will allow us to reconnect and prove a testing ground for new methods of pedagogy.” Augustana represented much more than a community connection and a testing ground, however. The college was already a national leader in international and outdoor education programs, which included interdisciplinary trips to the Rocky Mountains and Arctic Circle, several South and Central American partnerships, as well as destinations in Europe and Asia. The university incorporated several of these initiatives into its own outdoor and international programs. Since the merger, Augustana has been on the forefront of efforts such as the delivery of Faculty of Nursing programs to postRN and after-degree students in Camrose, as well as a Master’s program in physiotherapy, which is delivered simultaneously in Edmonton, Camrose, and Calgary via a cutting-edge distributed learning videoconference system. The Faculty of Native Studies has partnered with Augustana on courses taught in Camrose, and a new five-year, combined bachelor of science/bachelor of education program to train high school Science teachers for rural placements will graduate its first student in December. Benefits to the area

While these benefits are significant to Augustana, the University, and our students, the decade-old merger has meant a great deal to the community as well. “For over a hundred

years, Augustana has been an important part of this community,” says Camrose Mayor Norm Mayer, who served in the same role during the merger. “Faculty, staff, and students have lived and worked in the area for generations, and many graduates have stayed here to help our city grow. The school has always reached out to participate in the community while welcoming people to any event they hold on campus. I was proud to support the original merger, and I am delighted to see how much Augustana has grown in the past ten years - both on campus, and even further into our community.” Augustana Campus is a significant social and economic contributor to the city of Camrose and its surrounding area: most of the faculty and staff live and work here, as do most of the 1000 students, at least during the eight-month school year. Concerts, lectures, and athletic events are open to the community. Community-

Service Learning programs are founded on a relationship with local businesses, and mentorship programs involving Augustana studentathletes are so widespread that several local teams now wear Vikings logos on their jerseys. The Battle River School Board sends students on field trips to campus, and Augustana hosts Reading University, a summer reading enrichment program for elementary students. In terms of facilities, Augustana helped fund the multi-use Recreation Centre a few blocks west of campus, which includes the publicaccess Augustana Fitness Club and physical therapy labs. The campus library is open to members of the community, and the latest partnership with city, county and province has resulted in the construction of a new state-of-the-art performing arts centre on campus, which will serve the entire region.

Selected additional benefits of the merger Before merger, Augustana Campus was already reaching out around the world. Since merger, a longstanding relationship with Cuba’s Universidad de Oriente in Santiago has been formalized, deeper ties with Norwegian universities have been forged, a new musical connection with the Zoltan Kodaly Pedagogical Institute of Music in Hungary has been formed, and new faculty and student exchange partnerships have been established with two liberal arts institutions in China. In 2007, the University of Alberta’s Augustana Campus was accepted as the

only Canadian member of the Council of Public Liberal Arts Colleges, previously a U.S.-based organization. Supported by the reputation and research focus of the University of Alberta, Augustana professors have been awarded more multi-year NSERC and SSHRC national research grants. Various individuals have been recognized with McCalla Professorships, Teaching and Learning Enhancement Fund grants, undergraduate teaching awards, and a 3M National Teaching Fellowship. In tandem with this increase in faculty research output, Augustana’s empha-

sis on undergraduate research has grown. The result has been fully funded multi-year summer research projects, rural research placements, student publications in academic journals, and the popular Student Academic Conference, where over ten per cent of the student population present their research every semester. Over the past decade, annual donations to the Augustana Campus have grown significantly, surpassing the $1M mark for the first time in 2009. Community, alumni, and corporate support have augmented the ambitious student awards

program, the endowment, and resources for academic programs. In order to emphasize its commitment to green practices and the environment, Augustana appointed a sustainability coordinator and created a Sustainability Committee. Projects since merger have included a bike sharing program, the purchase of hybrid cars for the Augustana fleet, local lunches based on sustainable/local food sources, the installation of solar panels, new recycling multi-sort bins, energysaving lighting retrofits, a campus composter, and the certification of buildings to

international environmental standards. Besides the previously mentioned library, Performing Arts Centre, and Founders’ Hall renovations, Augustana’s infrastructure has benefited significantly. The Student Forum opened in September 2010, becoming the centre of campus life with a café, bookstore and office space. The Faith & Life parking lot was paved, a new land crossing now connects campus buildings with the senior residences, and aesthetic touches were lent with a water feature, centennial sculpture and gazebo overlooking the ravine.

Ten years since the merger Continued from page 29 Benefits to the province and the future

The merger’s benefits don’t stop at the county lines or remain exclusively within the university system. The Alberta government invested in the partnership a decade ago to support a strong rural presence for post-secondary education and leadership preparation in the province. “Bringing the University of Alberta to Camrose via Augustana was an occasion for the government to advance rural development and strengthen Augustana’s long history of excellence in education,” says Camrose Lutheran College alumnus LeRoy Johnson, former Augustana University College teacher and administrator, MLA for WetaskiwinCamrose during the merger, and now member of the University of Alberta’s board of governors. “At the same time, the university could follow through on its commitment to provide more varied educational opportunities for all of their students – now including a valuable rural environment.” While Augustana students come from across Canada and around the world, a large majority come from Alberta’s smaller rural communities. The number of self-identified Aboriginal and Metis students grows each year, with students supported by the Aboriginal Students’ Office and new programming spaces to be added during the coming year. Augustana has entered partnerships with the area’s health services administration, with the local school division, and with Alberta Parks on Miquelon Lake projects. It also participates in several projects through the Alberta Rural Development Network and the Alberta Centre for Sustainable Rural Development, which Augustana co-sponsors with the Faculty of Agricultural, Life, and Environmental Sciences. Through agreements with a number of community colleges across Alberta, Augustana provides new options for students who wish to continue their studies and earn a bachelor’s degree after completing their diplomas or transfer studies. This has proved particularly important for students from rural communities. “I don’t think there is anything I have ever been involved with that has helped rural Alberta more than bringing the University of Alberta to Camrose,” says Johnson.

Farmers hoping for a quieter hail season Continued from page 26

“It also gives them hail protection as soon as their crops emerge. If crops are struck by an early hailstorm before they’re insured, fields with more than 25 per cent damage will be declined Straight Hail coverage for the rest of the growing season,” she explains. Administrative Costs Reduced “We’re also seeing more farmers purchase Straight Hail coverage online because they like being able to access it

from home around the clock,” says Sanden. About 20 per cent of farmers bought Straight Hail online last year, creating efficiencies that led to a two per cent reduction in the administrative costs built into Straight Hail premiums this year. Sanden notes first time users must contact AFSC for an activation key to purchase online coverage. AFSC has provided hail insurance to Alberta farmers since 1938 when special legislation was passed creating

the Alberta Hail Insurance Board, which later became AFSC. “Farmers needed someone to offer hail insurance in every corner of the province, because back then it wasn’t available everywhere; the risk was too high,” says Sanden. “That same need exists today because hail is still the biggest risk Alberta farmers face each year. We continue to offer hail insurance in every township, and we don’t limit the number of acres we’ll insure,” she says,

noting AFSC’s mandate has broadened today to include the delivery of all-risk crop insurance, livestock price insurance, lending, and income stabilization programs on behalf of government. For more information about hail coverage, farmers can contact their local AFSC Branch or the AFSC Call Centre at 1-877-899AFSC (2372). Straight Hail Insurance is available anytime through the growing season and takes effect at noon the day after it’s purchased.

2014 Ford Escape Making a good thing better

Jan Nowakowski By Dan Jensen

The 2014 Ford Escape at Lamb Ford Sales in Camrose is proof that you can make a good thing better. "The addition of SYNC and a rearview mirror a standard equipment builds on what was already a pretty impressive package and makes it stand out as one of the best small crossovers," said Lamb Ford sales manager Brett Read. Smart utility Ford calls the Escape the "smarter utility vehicle" because it offers the strengths that customers value – fuel economy, versatility and new technology. "Ford understands that more people every year are looking at vehicles like Escape and we want to give them even more reasons to buy," said Raj Nair, group vice president, Global Product Development. Eco Boost Ford Escape's EcoBoost technology combines twin independent variable camshaft timing, turbocharging and direct injection to let you get plenty of power out of every drop of fuel. The 1.6 litre EcoBoost four-cylinder uses just 9.1 litres per 100 km in the City and 6.0 litres per 100 km on the highway. The 2.0 litre EcoBoost

four cylinder uses just 9.5 litres per 100 km in the city and 6.7 litres per 100 km on the highway while delivering 240 horsepower and 270 lb.-ft. of torque. "The Escape with the 2.0 litre engine can easily tow up to 1,588 kg when properly equipped," said Read. Ford Escape's standard engine is a 2.5 litre with 168 horsepower and 170 lb.ft. of torque. All three engines are mated to a six-speed Select Shift Automatic transmission with Sport mode. The Ford Escape makes itself more aerodynamic and fuel efficient with its class-exclusive active grille shutters. "When closed they help to reduce the drag caused by air travelling through the engine compartment," said Read. Torque Vectoring Control seamlessly enhances hold on the road while electric power-assisted steering enables pull-drift compensation to help correct for road irregularities and improve overall steering feel. Spacious The Ford Escape features generous hip, second row leg and rear cargo room. Heated front seats are standard on SE and

Titanium for extra comfort when the temperatures drop. A variety of environmentally-friendly materials are used throughout, including recycled plastic bottles that go into the carpeting. Scrap cotton from jeans, sweaters, T-shirts and the like are used in the sound absorption material. Plus, the vehicle itself is over 85 per cent recyclable after it has been driven its last kilometre. Escape offers up to 1,920 litres of cargo space and a class-exclusive handsfree liftgate. Simply move your foot under the rear bumper in a gentle kicking motion while the intelligent Access key fob stays tucked away in your pocket or purse. Sensors detect your leg and the motion, triggering the liftgate to open. The same action triggers it to close. Keep connected No more searching for your phone. No device in your ear. Once paired, voice-activated Ford Sync recognizes your phone and automatically transfers your contacts to support voice calling. It also plays music from your phone, MP3, USB or iPod. Just touch a button on the steering wheel and say things like "Call: John at work," or "Play playlist: roadtrip."

SYNC also includes 911 assist with GPS location reporting. SYNC with MyFord Touch includes a LCD touch screen, a LCD screen in the gauge cluster, five-way controls on the steering wheel, and a media hub with dual USB ports. Upgrade to the Navigation System for interactive maps you can zoom and scroll – complete with 3D landmarks. Choose Eco Route on the voiceguided turn-by-turn directions for a recommendation on the most fuel efficient way to travel. With Sirius XM Satellite Radio you can listen to your favourites all across Canada. Your six-month prepaid subscription gets you the best in audio entertainment, including 100 per cent commercial-free music from every genre, world-class news, sports, comedy and entertainment. Intelligent 4WD Escape with Intelligent 4WD is always ready for adventure. Assessing conditions about 20 times faster than the blink of an eye, the system readjusts as needed to deliver the right blend of handling and traction at all times. It is beneficial in all weather conditions, and provides excellent off-road traction. Plus, it has already

proven itself in challenging test environments around the globe. Escape's Blind Spot Information System (BLIS) with cross-traffic alert is designed to scan for vehicles approaching from either side as you slowly back out of a parking spot or driveway. If any are detected, the system alerts you with a chime, a message centre warning, and an amber light in the corresponding sideview mirror. While you're driving, BLIS uses the same amber lights to alert you if traffic is detected in your blind spots. Curve Control can help slow the Escape by as much as 16 km/h in approximately one second. Curve Control is effective on dry or wet pavement and is particularly useful on highway off ramps. Trailer Sway Control monitors the motion of the vehicle and detects trailer sway. If needed, it reduces engine speed and selectively applies the brakes to help you maintain control of both the vehicle and the trailer. You can see the 2014 Ford Escape at Lamb Ford Sales, 3771-48 Avenue, Camrose. Phone 780-6722411 and ask for one of the friendly sales professionals.

By Murray Green A summer Parks Day filled with fun will be held at the Miquelon Lake Provincial Park on Saturday, July 19. Activities will be planned at the centre, day use area and on the beach. Everyone can join the activities from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. You can hear a presentation about trees, build sand castles, or go on a scavenger hunt.

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.

Alberta’s new licence plate will feature a design to make roads safer

Albertans are invited to participate in an online survey to choose which of three proposed designs will be featured on the new provincial licence plate. The survey, which is available online, will run from now to Aug. 19. The design that receives the most votes will be selected for the new plate. “Alberta is the best place to live, work and raise a family; and, these three designs are all inspired by the pride Albertans have in their home,” said Premier Dave Hancock. “The natural beauty of our province is on display in all three designs. I know Albertans will enjoy having a say on what their new provincial licence plate will look like.” The licence plate, which will be available in spring 2015, is being updated to bring it in line with other jurisdictions across North America. The new plate will include: Alberta’s new logo; the Alberta Government’s web-

Cyclists hit the road for the Edberg 80 By Erin Specht, Battle River Watershed Alliance

If you had been out on the highway between Camrose and Edberg on July 6, you might have noticed a bit of extra traffic when 40 cyclists of all skill levels hit the road last Sunday for the Rolling Down the River “Edberg 80,” an 83km bike ride hosted by the Battle River Watershed Alliance. “It’s about being out in the watershed and experiencing what it has to offer,” explained Erin Specht, the BRWA’s summer program assistant. “The hills, the fields, the birds, the wind; it’s all part of the experience. Our belief is that by spending time on the landscape people develop a greater sense of appreciation for their watershed and become proponents of responsible management. Plus, it’s just a lot of fun. The ride was a huge success, with cyclists coming from as far as Calgary and as local as Edberg to participate in the event. Everyone hit the road shortly after 10 a.m. under an overcast sky, but the clouds soon cleared to let the sun come out and light up the canola fields. Cyclists had the opportunity to see the lovely Battle River valley, and the not-so-lovely hills that came with it. “You wouldn’t call the prairies flat if you have tried to cycle up the hills in the Battle River Valley,” one cyclist stated. There was plenty of support out on the road for those who were new to road cycling or just needed assistance of any kind. Water refill stations and extra inner tubes for the occasional flat tire were offered by the support drivers. Participants were also able to enjoy lunch down in Edberg, and a barbecue was held back at Jubilee Park to celebrate at the finish line. For additional support, there was even a nice tailwind to help everyone along the home stretch. With beautiful weather and great company, what better way to spend a Sunday. The BRWA would like to thank all of the sponsors for the ride. For more information on the Battle River Watershed Alliance, visit their website at www. battleriverwatershed.ca.
