Crown Jewels hold annual garden party

By Dan Jensen

Approximately 250 members of the Crown Jewels and Red Hat Society from across the province held their annual garden party at the Mirror Lake Centre Sept. 13.

The Camrose Crown Jewels have been hosting the garden party for the last ten years.

“It is a way for the ladies to enjoy fellowship,” said Camrose Crown Jewels queen Marlene Carlson.

“Many of the ladies have become very good friends.”

The day started with light snacks and coffee, after which the ladies were able to shop for items provided by some of the local vendors and enjoy live entertainment.

“The ladies enjoy the shopping part and many of them head to the historic downtown,” said Crown Jewels member Pat Stetar.

The Camrose chapter of the Crown Jewels has approximately 25 members.

“We started off as the Red Hat Society, which is an international organization,” said Stetar. “The Crown Jewels is a Canadian entity, which is totally separate from the Red Hat Society, although we include

Members of the Camrose Crown Jewels include, left to right, Shirley Comfort, Sharon Budinsky, Joan Callum, Mary Ann Ferner, Lorraine Filewych, Pat Stetar, Norma Somers and Marlene Carlson.

the members of the Red Hat Society in any of our events.”

The garden party has never had less than 240 ladies in attendance.

“We usually have 280 but the City of Camrose has part of the senior centre now so I had to put some

of the vendors at the back,” explained Carlson.

The Crown Jewels and Red Hats have proven to be an effective way for ladies to make new friends and support each other through some of life’s most difficult times.

“I came here about

12 years ago and through Crown Jewels and the Red Hat Society, which I was a member of until four years ago, have been able to make many new acquaintances,” said Carlson. “My sister-inlaw, Lucille Siwak, used to joke that I knew more people

than she did and she had been living here all her life.”

Camrose Crown Jewels does not do any fundraising in the community.

“We leave that up to individual members who are part of other organizations,” said Carlson.

Council seeking expressions of interest on transit

By Dan Jensen

Camrose city council will be seeking expressions of interest this fall on the operation of a public transit system.

Community Transit Advisory committee chair Tony Hladun told council Sept. 15 that it is important to get a good handle on who might be interested in operating a transit system and what it could actually end up costing before deciding whether or not such a system should be included in 2015 budget discussions.

The Camrose Transit Advisory committee believes the City of Camrose could operate a trial transit system for approximately $220,000 a year using three leased buses which would run two five kilometre routes twice per hour for 11 hours, five days a week.

“There are a number of functions that impact the service you provide: its frequency, the cost and so on,” said Hladun, adding that other cities, like Hinton and Yorkton spend as much as $250,000 a year on providing transit service. “It is not easy to sit down and say what this is going to cost and what this is going to make.”

The committee is proposing an average fare of $2.25 per rider, with the money being split on a 70-30 basis between the City of Camrose and a third party contractor.

“We would like the average travel time to be about 30 minutes and the average service frequency 30 minutes,” said Hladun. “I estimate that a round trip for someone with the worst set of connections would take up to an hour.”

Councillor Wayne Throndson said he has no problem with putting out a call for expressions of interest.

“It wouldn’t tie council’s hand to approving a budget. What it does is allow us to see, number one, if there is capability out there to do what we are asking to be done, and two, show us what the number (cost) might be. It might be that there is not anybody out there, which would be disappointing, or it might be that someone expresses an interest, but says we can’t do it for the numbers you are throwing at it.

“It might be a third party who has some expertise who says this won’t work, but that we can do it for $500,000 or $600,000.”

The estimated cost of operating the bus is at $59 per hour, which is $4 an hour higher than the number included in a D.A. Watt report presented to council in 2006. The Watt report also suggested a ridership of 165,000 per year, which the current transportation advisory committee feels is inconsistent with the Yorkton and the Hinton ridership.

Hladun expressed con-

fidence that the buses used for the service could be leased for $50 per year.

“There are all kinds of buses in use in Alberta.

“When I talked to David Drever at D & D he felt he might be able to get buses that we could lease at reasonable rates.”

Hladun said the routes and the stops along the route would have to be ironed out with the help of the city engineering department.

“They could block out pieces of the street and probably put up signage that says bus stop with the times on it.”

The committee is proposing that the bus service start in the summer, so that bugs can be ironed out before the school year begins.

Councillor Max Lindstrand noted that Camrose does have some advantages when it comes to potential users of a bus service.

“Councillor Sears and I were at a class at Augustana last week and there were probably 45 students in the class,” said Lindstrand. “Eighty to 90 per cent of them were new to Camrose and the question most recurring was how do we get from here to the Superstore? How do we get from here to the movie theatre?

Lindstrand also noted that what is being proposed by the committee looks like a hybrid system.

“If you really wanted to distance yourself from it you would simply hire

a contractor, give him the $250,000 and let him look after the fares and all these rest of that.”

Hladun suggested one of the things that could be worked into a contract with the bus service operator would be an early termination clause.

“If we started the bus service and no one got on until Christmas then you might find it is not worth doing,” said Hladun. “The problem there is that the contractor is basically on the hook for the lease so there may have to be something that actually asks him to negotiate with his bus supplier. I would be surprised if someone would write a lease for three years and then have a facility to allow the lease to be broken without some sort of penalty.”

Mayor Norm Mayer expressed concerns about the proposed hours of operation, noting that discontinuing operations at 6 p.m. would not be good for students looking to go shopping, or to a movie.

He also expressed worries about whether the bus would be able to attract enough riders.

“We had discussions with the county on their bus service, which was running from Bashaw to Camrose. I guess their experience has not been very favourable.

They started off with reasonable ridership, but they have about four people a week and that is all.”

Councillor Bill Sears expressed concern about whether it would be wise to operate on a bare bones budget.

“I don’t want to set up a system that is set for failure because we haven’t put enough money into it,” said Sears. “I think it is important that if we go into this we look at the (entire) two and a half or three years. We have to give it some time to see if it is going to be successful. It is not going to be successful right off.”

Councillor Lindstand said the city is not going to know what the ridership is going to be like until it actually starts operating the service.

“I think (the times) can be tinkered with and improved. As Mayor Mayer said, the (6 p.m. shutdown) time doesn’t get the students to the theatre, but maybe once a week it could run until 9 p.m.”

Lindstrand agreed that the first step is to see if there is a contractor out there who might be willing to take on the bus operation.

“I would like to see that happen very soon because if we don’t get it into this budget cycle then we are into another year of delay.

We just received a poverty reduction strategy report and one of the things that was found lacking for some of the people of less needs in our community is transportation.”

Is it enough?

The current government is fighting hard and

working hard to hold onto power in the next election.

This election should take place in 2016. For 43 years, the Alberta PC Party has hung onto power. This is more years than the Social Credit. They have broken the record for being the longest government in the history of Alberta.

Now, Prentice has taken steps to distant himself from Alison Redford government, which failed Albertans in a short period of time.

I have read the articles on the internet. According

to what I have read, Prentice has three mountains to climb and win. He has climbed and won the first mountain. The voter turn out was very low. However, out of the 23,000 votes cast, he won 77 per cent of those votes. But can he climb and win the second mountain?

Can he win a by-election?

Then can he guide his party to a place of trust in the eyes of Albertans?

There are six new faces which were added to his new cabinet. It has not been since the 1930s that we have seen unelect-

ed cabinet ministers. Is this is a desperate try to rewrite and distance the party from the unfortunate deeds of the past? The two unelected officials are, Stephen Mandel and Gordon Dirks. Then the rest are, Maureen Kubinec, Stephen Khan, Ric Mclver and David Dorward.

As a member of the Wildrose Alliance, we can never take anything for granted. It was Prentice who said after he was sworn in that, “This is a new Progressive Conservative government, with new leadership.”

Alberta politics is really touch and go. In 2012, we, as Wildrose Alliance, thought that we had the prize in the bag. It was shocking to realize that it took two outspoken candidates to destroy our opportunity to form the next government. It was what seemed to be a small slipup but it did cost us a lot of seats. This is not a free country as many of us would like to think. The majority does rule when it comes to what we can say and not say.

The magic of illusions

VOLUNTEER PAYS IT FORWARD

Bank of Montreal Camrose branch assistant manager Tricia Cameron, right, presented a cheque for $1,000 to Heather Monahan, commander of the Arrowhead District of Girl Guides of Canada. Cameron received the money from BMO after submitting a letter telling of her volunteer work with the Camrose Brownies program.

Watch out for wildlife With the earlier darkness setting in, change of weather and wildlife movement there are a number of drivers striking wildlife while on Alberta roads. Motorists need to be aware of the safety issues. Slow down when visibility is diminished such as darkness. If you come to strike an animal take the appropriate actions to have the dead animal removed from the road. Put on your flashers and call the highway maintenance company for the area and request assistance for removal if you are unable to safely do the same.

By driving away after a collision and leaving an obstruction on the road another motorist will strike it, causing potential civilian injury or damage.

In recent weeks it has been observed that there have been wildlife strikes where the carcass was left on the road and then restruck multiple times causing damage to a number of vehicles. Should that wildlife have been removed from the onset of the collision this would be resolved.

Alberta has had 446 animal strikes causing damage, injury and even death in August 2014 which were reported to the RCMP.

It’s generally believed that people want to know how magic tricks are done not necessarily because they want to know the secret, but rather because they admire the skill that the magician has acquired to learn the illusion. For the most part, I tend to disagree with this. In my experience, people want to know how a trick is done, but really don’t want to know.

What do I mean by this? Children are awed by every little thing they see. Falling snow to a child looks like crystal diamonds falling from the sky, but to an adult it looks like a cold mess that has to be shovelled off the car. Many of us have lost the sense of wonder that is so important for stimulating the imagination necessary for developing solutions to many of the problems that confront us.

One reason I think people lose this sense of wonder is that once they discover how things work they become complacent with their functioning. Imagine if we invented a portal through which we could transport a human from one part of the world to another, just like in Star Trek. I think we would like to know how that ‘magic’ works. But I can almost guarantee that once we knew how it worked, we would take it for granted.

I know I would. I already take things like a telephone, television, and email, for granted. Just look at what our cell phones can do now in the palm of our hands. No one could have imagined this type technology a hundred years ago. They would have said it was impossible.

But if you ask people today, they feel anything could be possible. So how does any of this relate to illusions? I think the reason people love watching magic is because it brings them back to that child-like state where the impossible is happening before their very eyes, where we learned to use our own imagination and suspend

the sense of disbelief. For that moment believe in the extraordinary that is occurring before our very eyes.

We believe in that magic. We want to believe.

That’s why we watch films, television, read books... we want to explore with our minds, our imagination. We want to live in that state of magic and wonderment, but the next question is why? Is it the need to believe in something higher and better than what we can see? Is it the faith that, even though we don’t presently know all the answers, there are answers to the illusions we see?

Illusions are a metaphor for the many things that are pervasive in our lives. What we see at one level may not be happening at another level. In many scientific studies there is often a placebo effect where patients take a sugar pill that may cause a result or reaction in the test group that can be higher than 40 per cent, when in reality nothing should happen.

This plays to the notion that the mind can play tricks on us. As doctors, our goal is to try to help people but our presences and the way we act has a significant effect

on the people we deal with.

Our mere presence and confidence can greatly influence results and treatment outcomes...are we partly a placebo effect?

Illusions are present when a magician performs a simple magic trick. With the performance of an illusion, the audience sees something unique and unexpected, and they become enthralled and amazed. However, if the audience were to go behind the curtain and discover the ‘secret’ they could easily become disenchanted or disappointed by how it was done. Similarly, when we see a sharp dressed individual, we may attribute to them certain traits such as intelligence, wisdom, and charisma without discovering what is really behind the smart suit or dress. This phenomenon also works in reverse. Our understanding of events, situations, and people can be illusionary.

Illusions are illustrative of how we process information and how we can easily become misled. As much as they entertain, they also educate us as to how we may be making decisions, right or wrong, without closer examination. Illusions are illustrative of misunderstanding and misinterpretation. Without understanding you can’t correct the illusion. Taking a closer look at how we view events is the f irst step to awareness, which in turn is the f irst step to understanding, which in turn, is the f irst step to empowering change.

Letters to the Editor Continued from page 8

Our Party told the truth of what we could do. This government’s past leader lied and told Albertans what they wanted to hear. So people who cared and voted did so putting Redford in. What Albertans have to decide is do we believe Prentice when

he says this is a new government or are they going to realize that they will do and say anything that will bring them the right amount of votes to hold onto power.

Then, like Redford, they will do whatever they want to do for the sake of those in the PC Party club. The choice

is up to us, Albertans. Are we going to put in a Party which, in the end will strive to please the PC Party club, or are we going to stand up and put in a true blue conservative government that will put us Albertans first?

Book launch and workshop September 25, 27

By Dan Jensen

Former Ryley and Camrose resident Vangie Bergum will be launching her book Downstream – Bestemor & Me at the Augustana Campus of the University of Alberta Thursday, Sept. 25.

Published by Hagios Press (2014), Downstream is a story about the birth, death, religion and work of Bergum’s grandmother (Bestemor), who moved to Camrose from Norway.

“It is my first foray into creative non fiction,” said Bergum, who has studied women’s experiences of becoming mothers, and then, together with a team of health care professionals and scholars, researched relational ethics in health care. “It is about relation-

Drivers reminded to be cautious around school buses

By Dan Jensen

The Battle River School Division and Camrose RCMP are reminding motorists to take extra precautions around school buses.

“In the first ten school days on one bus route alone there were nine occasions (in the Camrose area) where motorists passed a school bus when it was unlawful to do so,” said Camrose RCMP Detachment Constable Trent Kenyon.

School buses and the children they pick up and drop off are often in precarious situations on the roadway, which makes it imperative that motorists obey the rules of the roadway when around them.

“There are severe penalties imposed for school bus infractions to reflect the possible consequences for failing to obey the rules of the road around school buses,” said Const.

Kenyon. “When a motorist notices flashing amber lights on a school bus he or she is required to slow down and proceed with caution. When flashing red lights are activated motorists are required to stop and only proceed when flashing red lights are no longer activated.”

The most severe penalty for passing a school bus while flashing red lights are activated is a fine of $402 and six demerit points.

ship but this time it is personal.”

The book has been a way for Bergum to get to know grandmother, who died, along with her sisters and husband, in a tragic murder-suicide in northern Saskatchewan in 1929.

“Through personal research and writing I have come to know Bestemor – brought her back to life so to speak – and developed a relationship with her,” said Bergum, who was born ten years after her grandmother’s death. “The Norwegian writer, Karl Ove Knausgaard, in his book, My Struggle, says that writing is drawing the essence of what we know out of the shadows. I began with what I knew and what I didn’t

know in writing about my family’s shadow. I wrote from my childhood membership in a deeply religious family with Norwegian Lutheran roots; from training for a marathon on trails and road by the river near my current home; and from my concern about missing women in my life, my province, and around the world.”

Bergum questioned whether she had a right to tell a story that affected her whole family but came to the realization that people carry secrets within their body from generation to generation without knowing.

“I didn’t want to leave my own unfinished business for my children and

grandchildren to carry,” she said.

Bergum hopes by telling the story she can open dialogue about family secrets, mental illness and its stigma and generational shame.

“My goal in writing and in life is to help create beauty in the world and to face life’s sorrows in order to try to understand,” she said. “Telling the tough story will never ensure that traumatic experiences will never happen again.”

Bergum will also be conducting a workshop at the Camrose County meeting room, 3755-43 Avenue, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 27. Along with sharing insights and writing techniques from her person-

al writing experiences, she will invite participants to explore truth, fiction, the stories they want to tell (whose story is it?), and ways to tell them. The worskshop cost will include the cost of materials and a lunch.

Both the book launch and the workshop are being presented by the Association for Life Wide Living of Alberta-Battle River Writing Centre and the Augustana Ronning Centre. Funding support for the workshop is being provided by New Horizons for Seniors Canada.

More information may be obtained by contacting the Ronning Centre at 780679-1146, or the ALL-Battle River Writing Centre at 780-672-9315.

Rotary Daybreak resumes TV bingo

By Dan Jensen

Camrose residents will once again be able to enjoy a game of bingo in the comfort of their own homes.

Rotary Club of Camrose Daybreak has announced it will be resuming its weekly bingo programs on Community 10 Television Wednesday evenings starting Oct. 1.

The bingos may be viewed in high definition by anyone who has a HD receiver.

“We had to shut down last year because of the upgrades that were being done at Community 10 TV,” said Rotary Club of Camrose Daybreak bingo chair Harry Prest.

The bingo has developed a loyal viewership since it was started as a fundraiser in 2005-06.

“I think a lot of viewers were disappointed when we suspended last year’s season,” said Prest. “Many of the players are seniors at lodges who see it as a good chance to get together with others and socialize.”

Bingo cards may be purchased at $5 apiece a variety of businesses in Camrose, including the Shoppers Drug Mart stores on the west end, Groves Value Drug Mart, Wildrose Co-op Gas Bars, Pedersen’s Florists and Speedy Gas. “Each card is good for three games, the first two of which offer prizes of $100,” said Prest. “The third game is a blackout game, which means all the numbers on the card have to be called for the player to win.”

The club sells approximately $1,000 worth of bingo cards a week when it is closing in some of the major winnings.

“We start off each week by calling 48 numbers and if someone gets a blackout with those 48 numbers they win the $1,000,” said Prest. “If we don’t give out the $1,000 for a blackout we increase the number of balls

we call each week until the prize is won. The longer we go without giving out the major prize the more the excitement builds.”

The odds of winning something are fairly good considering the average number of players is between 100 and 125.

“We see a lot of repeat winners,” said Prest. “When Carol Davies Pedersen still owned her flower store she got to know a lot of the winners by name. I would say the average payout over the course of the year is between $12,500 and $13,500.”

Bingo proceeds are channelled by the Rotary Club of Camrose to support both local and international charitable organizations, including Reading University, KidSport, the Merry Christmas Fund, Grateful

Grannies and the Stephen Lewis Foundation, Project Amigo Mexico, and a school for girls in Malawi.

“The girls’ school gives young women the opportunity to gain a high school education and to change their lives as a result,” said Prest. “One of the sad truths about some of the east African countries like Malawi is that most of the girls end up being wives at the age of 13 and 14 and almost none of them complete high school because of the traditions.

They end up being the third or fourth wife of someone and their lives are pretty restricted.”

The Rotary Club of Camrose Daybreak has been able to reduce the bingo’s overhead costs quite dramatically.

“We were able to pay off the cost of the equipment, which was $10,000, by the 2008-09 season, which allowed us to give more to charities,” said Prest, “but we still face modest costs for rent and advertising and phone.”

Community 10 Television is proud to be associated with the Rotary Club of Camrose Daybreak bingo for another year.

“It attracts a lot of viewers every time it is broadcast,” said Community 10 operations manager Ken Spong. “It is a great way for the club to give back to the community.”

More information about the bingo may be obtained by contacting Harry Prest or any member of the Rotary Club of Camrose Daybreak.

Olson happy with new Premier

By Dan Jensen

Wetaskiwin-Camrose MLA and Alberta Agriculture and Rural Development Minister Verlyn Olson likes what he sees from the new Premier.

“He is all business,” said Olson last week, after hearing that we would be part of the Premier’s new cabinet going forward. “He has a tremendous amount of energy when you think of what he has been through since last May (with the leadership c a mpa i g n) . “ I l i ke t he way h e h a n d les and deals with people.”

The Premier stressed in a mandate letter that he handed to Olson last week the importance encouraging new innovation in industry, and of developing new markets, especially in the Asia Pacific region. He also placed an emphasis on a new rail system so that Alberta’s farmers can get their products to port in a more timely manner, and on supporting Albertans in rural areas through continued work on the rural economic development action plan.

“I would say it reaffirms

what we have been working on,” said Olson. “It gives us a little boost to keep doing that.”

Olson expects to have his hands full over the next few months with stakeholder meetings, policy development and the building of strong relationships with those in agriculture. He is currently waiting on a ruling from the World Trade Organization on the United States’ harmful mandatory of origin labelling, which he and federal minister Ritz expect to be favourable.

“It would be a huge mistake to say that the only time work gets done is when the legislature is in session,” he said. “We are busy right now.”

While he is a good friend with former health minister Fred Horne, Olson sees many positives with having the position going to former Edmonton mayor Stephen Mandel, who he was able to get to know while he was Minister of Justice.

Olson feels it is significant that the Premier has created a stand alone ministry for seniors that is being spearheaded by for-

mer Camrosian Jeff Johnson.

“I know that the Premier talks a lot about the importance of seniors’ issues.

I have also been very pleased with the number of occasions he has, without prompting, talked about the importance of working with faith based organizations that are providing seniors’ care and seniors’ housing, especially coming from an area of the province where we rely very heavily on those types of organizations both for health care and seniors’ care. Jeff, I think, is in a very good position to do that work and I think he is anxious to roll up his sleeves and get at it.”

The Premier has made it clear that all the new cabinet ministers (himself included) who do not have seats in the legislature will need to have them by the time the assembly resumes Nov. 17.

“It means that they will have another challenge in front of them for the next month and a half,” said Olson. “They will be campaigning for their seats in upcoming by-elections.”

Covenant Health learns from St. Mary’s

Tuesday, Sept. 30th, 8 a.m. to 2 p.m.

By Murray Green

Covenant Health president and CEO Patrick Dumelie, and senior vice-president and chief operating officer Linda Revell learned as much about St. Mary’s Hospital as staff did about them when they stopped in for a visit on Sept. 19.

“A couple times a year we come down for a formal presentation to the staff. We wanted to try something a little bit different where we can get out and talk to the staff where they work,” explained Dumelie. “We think that is very important – to stay connected to everyone within our organization. It has been a great day. We had the opportunity to sit down with the mayor and talk how we work together with the community that has been so supportive.”

The two visitors toured the facility and met with front line workers in their environments to see them in action and hear concerns.

“There is so much to be proud of in this facility,” said Dumelie. “The services we offer and innovation that the staff show is good. It is almost outgrowing itself in terms of space. There are many stories about staff taking care of their patients in the most effective way possible. We are expanding our services within the parameters of space.”

The passion of the staff is what makes St. Mary’s Hospital special.

“We learn from staff what we can’t learn in a report,” added Revell. “The things the staff are doing are innovative and creative and we are putting that in the back of our mind, so when we see problems somewhere else, we can apply what we have learned from here. We wouldn’t get that if we didn’t visit here.”

The Covenant Health leaders toured the facilities to gather information.

“It is an opportunity to learn directly from the staff.

They tell you exactly how it is,” said Dumelie. “The stroke (recovery) program is great, the maternity ward is growing and women’s health is growing. We have a real sense of community, with staff at each facility helping others at our other facilities.”

Camrose energizes Revell to share ideas.

Sometimes there are gaps, but one thing Camrose has done an excellent job of with its community partners is link the pieces together,” said Revell. “When you come here you are not only looked after at this facility, but also in the community.”

Dumelie said everyone is committed to improving the care.

“I think it is very powerful to have Patrick and Linda visit our staff because they are passionate leaders. I’ve met with them a lot, but the front line staff hasn’t and it means a lot to share ideas with them,” said St. Mary’s site administrator Cherylyn Antymniuk. “We have such a positive outlook here and I honestly love coming to work every day.”

The head of the medical staff agreed.

“We all work well together to accomplish what we need to do and for a positive common goal,” added Dr. Art Jaroni.

Sweet Alibi set to play

By Murray Green

The Winnipeg female trio Sweet Alibi is making a return visit to Camrose on Oct. 4 for a concert at the Bailey Theatre beginning at 8 p.m.

Known as a soul, indie folk and roots band, Sweet Alibi will be part of the Rose City Roots Society concert series.

Sweet Alibi had a great first album that earned considerable acclaim and a nomination for best vocals at the 2012 Canadian Folk Music Awards.

Instead of bringing more of the same, members Jess Rae Ayre, Michelle Anderson and Amber Quesnel advanced to create a more introspective and inspirational sophomore album by answering their own bell about whether there would be a follow up album.

The release We’ve Got To came out last fall with even better songs and sound. Lead single “I’ll Wait” has vaulted the band into a very busy schedule. Sweet Alibi is a tenacious trio that is embarking on several extensive crossCanada dates.

Music for two pianos four hands

It’s not often that Camrose and area residents have the opportunity to experience a concert featuring two high calibre piano artists performing music for two piano and four hands. The Augustana campus of the University of Alberta presents Debra Bakland and Cheryl Cooney, pianists, in concert on Sunday, Sept. 28, at 3 p.m. in the Faith and Life Chapel. Entitled Old, New, and Blue, the concert will feature compositions by Witold Lutoslawski, Johannes Brahms, Sergei Rachmaninov, Johann Sebastian Bach, Frederic Rzewski, and Cheryl Cooney herself. As an additional highlight, Bakland and Cooney will be joined by the Canadian University College Chamber Orchestra, director Cristian Neacsu, and mezzosoprano Sharon Braun at special points in the program.

Debra Bakland left a thirty year teaching career in the Pacific Northwest (Walla Walla University, Washington) in 2007 and joined the music faculty of Canadian University College in Lacombe, Alberta, where she teaches piano major students, piano pedagogy, music history, theory, form and analysis. She has presented numerous workshops and master classes and adjudicated extensively in Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Montana, and Alaska. Ms. Bakland holds a Bachelor of Music degree from Andrews University in Michigan, and a Master of Arts from Washington State University.

Cheryl Cooney is a pianist and composer who resides in Red Deer. She has lived and studied in Canada, Austria, the U.S., and France. Her compositions have been performed in Canada, the U.S., South America, and Europe. She received a Bachelor of Music degree in piano performance from the University of Alberta, an Advanced Diploma in piano chamber from the Mozarteum conservatory in Salzburg, Austria, a Master of Music degree in composition from the University of British Columbia, and a Ph.D. in composition from Michigan State University. Dr. Cooney has enjoyed a residency at the Leighton Artists’ Colony at the Banff Centre and a recording residency as well. Her compositions have been commissioned by the Red Deer Symphony, and Yamaha Canada, among others. She has recorded her works with orchestras in Kiev, Ukraine, and St. Petersburg, Russia, and has several CDs to her credit.

The Calgary Canucks survived pressure from the Camrose Kodiaks on this play, but Camrose emerged as 5-2 winners on Sept. 20 at the EnCana Arena. The Calgary Mustangs spoiled the home opener for the Kodiaks with a close 3-2 win. Camrose is now 4-1 on the season after five games.

By Murray Green

The Camrose Kodiaks are not afraid of road trips.

In fact, they are a perfect 3-0 this season with all of the games away from the confines of the EnCana Arena.

Coach and general manager Boris Rybalka is also not afraid of making improvements to the club, even when they have a perfect record.

He brought in veteran Adam de Champlain to provide leadership both on and off the ice.

“We executed well in the three games and one thing the coaches have noticed is how focused this group has been. They are working hard and buying in to what we are telling them,” said coach Rybalka. “It is better to be 3-0 than 0-3, but I remember one year we were 0-11-1 and made it to the league final. Starts are important, but it is more in the process of staying on the page. Work hard and good things will happen.”

It is only mid-September, but the team is ahead of last year’s development.

“We are ahead of schedule and our attitude and work ethic is great,” said Rybalka.

That didn’t stop the staff from adding pieces.

“We added Adam because if we are standing

still, then we are not improving,” said Rybalka. “His experience adds another element to our hockey club. We very young. Devin McDonald and Brett Njaa were our only 20 year olds. We went and acquired Adam Wheeldon to give us more leadership experience, now we have de Champlain.”

After a 4-3 season opening win, Camrose backed that up with two straight 3-1 victories.

Tanner Younghans started the scoring on a power play mid-way through the game against the Calgary Mustangs on Sept. 13. The horses tied the match 20 seconds into the third, but Cam Gotaas gave the Kodiaks the lead again and Braeden Salverda notched an insurance marker on a man-advantage later in the period.

Goalie Devin McDonald stopped 22 of 23 shots fired his way to pick up the win in net. Camrose out shot the Mustangs 45-23 in the chippy contest.

The Kodiaks stole two points from the Brooks Bandits the night before.

Spencer Kryczka gave Camrose a 1-0 lead in the first. Brooks evened the score in the middle frame, but the Kodiaks came back with two in the third off the

sticks of Trevor Costello and Brett Njaa.

McDonald had a much busier game by turning away 32 of 33 shots in goal.

The Kodiaks named 20-year-old veteran Adam de Champlain as the captain. He played in Camrose for a year before joining the Portland Winterhawks of the Western Hockey League.

“He wanted to be here and finish junior as a member of the Kodiaks and we respect that decision,” said Rybalka. “It was a hard one for him, but it shows how much he wants to be a part of this community.”

Camrose travels to Calgary to take on the Canucks on Sept. 23 prior to the showcase games. The Kodiaks are in Spruce Grove on Sept. 25 to play the Whitecourt Wolverines and meet the host squad on Sept. 27.

The next home games are on Sept. 30 and Oct. 3 when Spruce Grove and Brooks provide the opposition.

Harder news

The Fort McMurray Oil Barons reduced their roster size to 23, releasing former Kodiaks forward Nick Harder.

Harder was acquired as a free agent and dressed in two regular season games for the Oil Barons this year.

Kodiaks name veteran de Champlain new captain

By Murray Green

Murray Green, Camrose Booster

Lukas Park played a game of Frisbee with his brother Dorian prior to the Camrose Kodiaks home opener on Sept.

19. A children’s carnival and a barbecue was held before the start of the first two games in front of the EnCana Arena.

The Camrose Kodiaks have named newly acquired Adam de Champlain as captain for the 2014-15 season. de Champlain spent the last two seasons in the Western Hockey League. He was concerned about his playing time as a 20-year-old in Portland. “I started my junior career here in Camrose and then went to Portand for

two years,” said the centre.

“Boris (coach Rybalka) has helped me so much with the ups and downs of hockey. As a 20-year-old, I wanted to play and get a good opportunity. During preseason with Portland, I didn’t feel that I had a big enough role for what I thought I deserved.

For all of the things that Boris has done for me, I want to be able to raise the cup for

him this year. In the back of my mind I was thinking that this would be a great opportunity.”

In 2011-12 he scored eight goals and added six assists in 38 games for the Kodiaks. He then went to the Portland Winterhawks where he scored eight goals and recorded 10 assists in 60 games in 2012-13.

Council throws support behind Parkland library campaign

By Dan Jensen

Camrose city council is throwing its support behind a Parkland Regional Library advocacy campaign.

Council has directed Mayor Norm Mayer to send a letter to Wetaskiwin Camrose MLA Verlyn Olson and the Minister of Municipal Affairs, Greg Weadick, highlighting the importance of libraries and the need for additional funding.

“It is another opportunity for us as councillors to advocate for the library system,” said councillor Agnes Hoveland at council’s regular meeting on Sept. 2.

Information presented to council by Parkland Regional Library Aug. 13 noted that operating grants remain at $4.60 per capita for regional library systems and $5.45 per capita for municipal libraries.

“Provincial operating grants are still calculated using 2010 population figures, so funding has effec-

tively decreased,” explained Parkland Regional Library director Ron Sheppard.

“Unless provincial funding to libraries increases, municipal libraries and regional systems will be forced to pass all cost increases on to the municipalities or eventually begin reducing services.”

Overall provincial per capita funding for library services has declined by 6.8 per cent since 2009 due to population growth, while purchasing power for the Public Library Services Branch of Municipal Affairs as well as municipal libraries has declined by 9.47 per cent due to inflation (calculations based on figures used by municipal affairs, the Bank of Canada Inflation Calculator, changes in Alberta’s GDP and changes in Alberta’s weekly earnings between 2009 and 2013).

The result is that libraries need almost a 10 per cent

increase just to be where they were in 2010.

More important than just an increase to the per capita grant, Parkland Regional Library believes that the government should establish some sort of policy related to library grants.

“Municipal libraries and regional systems operate on the calendar year for our fiscal year,” states a Parkland document. “The Alberta Libraries Act requires that library budgets be submitted to municipal councils before Dec. 1. This time line means that library budgets must be planned, prepared and approved by their board many months before library boards know what provincial grant levels will be.

This lack of predictability creates inherent instability.

Further uncertainty surrounds provincial licencing initiatives. While all libraries benefit and are grateful for the province’s support for digital resources such as

Novelist, Mango Language Learning Software and the subsidy to the TAL Core of databases, libraries do not know from one year to the next what resources will be funded. With no increase in funding to the Public Library Services Branch at Municipal Affairs, the PLSB must make difficult decisions related to licencing. Fluctuations in the Canadian vs. U.S. dollar and inflationary costs mean that over time the PLSB purchasing power is declining. This situation means that limited resources are subject to cuts midway through the budget cycle of library boards, so libraries frequently don’t have the cash available to pick up subscriptions dropped by the province.”

Parkland Regional Library has received no provincial money to upgrade its headquarters, which are located in Lacombe, despite a 2010 report by Alberta

Infrastructure that suggested the need for an estimated $1 million in improvements.

“Regional library system headquarters have typically been funded by the Alberta government and have no other source of infrastructure funding,” said Parkland, adding that six regional library system headquarters are in need of major structural repairs and significant functional upgrades identified through structural and functional reviews conducted by Alberta Infrastructure. “Because the engineering reports were completed about two years ago some structural problems have magnified and new problems have emerged.”

Alberta’s regional library systems provide support and library services to 303 Alberta municipalities, a Metis settlement, and a First Nations Reserve through 265 public libraries.

Veteran adds experience to Kodiaks’ lineup Continued from page 20 Last year, in an injury reduced schedule, he scored six goals and collected 10 points in 43 games.

Portland changed the coaching staff over the summer. “It wasn’t the coach; Jamie (Kompon) treated me well,” said the captain. “He was trying to get to know everyone. I have nothing but respect for Portland. It is a great organization.” de Champlain said it was a bit of both when asked if he was caught up in a numbers game with 20 year olds, or if he wanted to leave.

“They still wanted me, but I was the one that went in to say I wanted to leave and help Boris out.”

Looking at de Champlain’s progression, a fourth line role wasn’t enough to keep him away from home for another year.

line and be part of the shut down line. That’s what I do best,” he said. “This opportunity in Camrose was too good to turn down.”

The veteran just wants to be himself.

“No matter where Boris puts me, or what line I play on, I’m going to be me,” he said. “I’m the guy that is hard to play against and can be a heavy body out there. Hopefully, I can show my skill a little more out here.

“I’m getting to know the guys. It is a whole new team, other than (Nelson) Gadoury. I’m excited, looking around the dressing room, in what I see. It is exciting to come to a team that is 3-0 on the road so far. Hopefully, I can help Adam de Champlain them keep it going.”

“I’m not a guy who asks Not only has coach for promises, but I thought I Rybalka helped de Chamdeserved to be on the third plain a lot, but former

Vikings coach and current Pittsburgh Penguins coach Mike Johnston has developed his hockey skills as well.

“Mike is a great guy, but he is hard to play for sometimes because he demands a lot. If you are not playing well he lets you know, kind of like Boris.

That’s a great trait to have.

Mike helped with my development by putting me in different roles and he has done a lot for me.”

Coach Johnston provided him with that Camrose connection. “I wouldn’t have wanted to go anywhere else.

This is like a second home to me with my grandma and grandpa, and uncle and aunt here. It is nice knowing that there will be family here cheering me on at every home game. It means a lot to me.”

In the last two years he

has played 42 playoff games, a valuable experience from which the Kodiaks hope to draw.

“Just walking in here to this interview I learned that I’m going to be the captain. That is a honour and a big role. I’m excited for the opportunity and I’m going to lead this team in any way I can. I want to listen to the young guys and be supportive. I want to be open to everyone,” concluded de Champlain.

“We are 25 guys with the same goal in mind. At the end of the day I want to make sure everyone stays on track. I know what it takes and in Portland we ended up one game short and I can bring that experience to the club.”

2014 Ford F-150 One of Canada’s premiere trucks

Craig Beddoes

By Dan Jensen The 2014 Ford F-150 pickup at Lamb Ford Sales maintains its reputation as one of Canada’s premier pickups.

Powered by either a 3.7 litre V-6, a 5.0 litre V-8, a 6.2 litre V-8, or the hightech EcoBoost V-6, the Ford F-150 has all the power you need to get the job done.

The standard 3.7 litre V-6 features dual overhead camshafts (DOHC) and four valves per cylinder, plus twin-independent variable camshaft timing (Ti-VCT) technology. Ti-VCT allows for variable control of the intake and exhaust camshafts, optimizing combustion at full load to increase power and low- speed torque. It also enables variable valve overlap, which enhances fuel economy and improves cold-start operation with lower exhaust emissions.

The available 5.0 litre Ti-VCT has the most horsepower (360) and torque (380 lb.-ft), plus the highest towing capacity of any smalldisplacement V-8 engine plus best-in-class payload.

And it flexes all this muscle while delivering 14 litres per 100 km in the city and 9.7 litres per 100 km on the highway. Other notable fea-

tures are a high-strength aluminum engine block, optimized camshafts and 10.5:1 compression ratio to help maximize low-speed torque, and a cylinder head designed to increase airflow.

The available 6.2 litre V-8 features power ratings of 411 horsepower and 434 lb.-ft. of torque – enough to easily tow a 5,125 kg trailer when properly equipped. Efficiency and durability are ensured by lightweight aluminum cylinder heads and pistons and a cast-iron block.

The EcoBoost V-6 has an impressive maximum towing capability of 5,125 kg and offers up to 3,100 lbs of payload. Direct injection produces a cooler, denser charge that generates more power per every drop of fuel, while the two small air-toair intercooled turbochargers spool up much more quickly than a single large turbo.

The EcoBoost® engine underwent over 1,900 hours of testing at full-boost conditions, as well as thermal testing to simulate 10 years of operation in the harshest environments.

The standard electronically controlled 6-speed close-ratio transmission helps optimize power delivery for excellent fuel

economy. A selectable tow/ haul mode improves performance when towing or hauling heavy loads. It compensates for grade and load and reduces gear hunting, improving power delivery. Engine braking also helps slow the truck when descending hills.

The available SelectShift® Automatic has two modes of operation — Progressive Range Select or Full Manual. Progressive Range Select lets you toggle on the shift lever to reduce the range of available gears while in Drive. Tap down into Range Select mode and the display shows the available gears and highlights the one in use. This feature allows you to limit the use of upper gears when heavily loaded or while towing on grades. Full Manual function lets you pull the shift lever into “M” for manual mode and use the same toggle switch to select the gear desired. The display will show the selected gear and the control system will lock the torque converter and hold that gear for a full manual transmission feel.

F-150 has a cargo box volume of 2,302 litres (81.3 cu. ft.). The available tailgate step and box side steps, both class-exclusive fea-

tures, provide easier access to all that payload capability.

Standard Trailer Sway Control (TSC) builds on the AdvanceTrac® with Roll Stability Control™ (RSC®) system to help maintain trailer control through selective wheel braking and reduced engine torque.

The electronic-locking rear differential, when engaged, locks the rear axle completely to provide maximum traction at both rear wheels at the same time.

The electronic-locking rear differential is fully integrated with the AdvanceTrac® with Roll Stability Control™ (RSC®) system to deliver excellent control when travelling on- or off-road.

Interior The quiet environment inside the Ford F-150 owes much to the Ford 720-degree approach to noise reduction through sound engineering. Its stiff frame and body, shear-style body mounts, door seals, Quiet Steel® and a noise-absorbing headliner all work together to reduce unwanted noise and vibration.

The class-exclusive fully flat load floor in the cargo compartment provides 1,569L (55.4 cu. ft.) of usable cab space. The seat cushion

folds up and out of the way and the doors swing wide open to allow easy access to this large amount of space.

The available rearview camera uses a camera mounted in the tailgate to produce a large and bright real-time visual display in the interior rearview mirror. Or the visual is displayed on the available 8-inch MyFord Touch®20 LCD touch screen.

The standard Personal Safety System™ uses the electronic crash-severity sensor, a restraint-control module, a driver’s seat position sensor, dual-stage front airbags, eight Front Passenger Sensing System, safety belt pretensioners, safety belt energy management retractors and front outboard safety belt usage sensors to help protect the driver and front seat passenger.

The available Navigation provides voice-guided turn-by-turn directions and also your choice of fastest, shortest, or EcoRoute mode that instantly calculates the most fuel-efficient route. Features also include a full-colour 3D bird’s-eye view plus points of interest and the last destinations entered in the system.

Camrose Mayor Norm Mayer officially opened Vinesation Olive Oil and Vinegar tasting Room on Main Street with owners Bridget Lennartsson, manager Brittany Johnson and owner Michael Johnson on Sept. 12. The testing room features more than 40 different flavours of olive oils and vinegars.

As you may know, the City of Camrose has developed a number of programs aimed at conserving water within the city. These programs offer the potential to drastically reduce your water consumption and therefore your water bill.

Everyone is encouraged to participate.

As a new program in 2013, the City of Camrose is inviting all business owners to take part in receiving a free water audit of their business. This program was piloted in 2012 with the Battle River School Division administration building and at the Camrose Composite High School. At no charge to you, and under the direct supervision of one of your staff, one of the City’s water assessors will come to your business and assess the various water-using appliances and fixtures at your facility.

In the end, you will receive a report of what was found, which will also provide suggestions of how you could reduce your water consumption.

We are willing to work around your business needs, and will conform to all safety and other policies that you deem necessary. This assessment will be as nondisruptive as possible.

One of the opportunities available is the Toilet Rebate Program. Since the program’s beginning in 2008 approximately $36,000 has been saved in water costs per year in the City of Camrose. A large majority of the toilets replaced to date have been residential, and we would like to see the program be taken advantage of by more commercial users. When considering the water saved as well as the rebates, the new toilets will typically pay for themselves in around a year.

For example, in 2010 there were two, 23-unit apartment complexes in the city that decided to utilize the Toilet Rebate Program.

Each location received about $1,600 in rebates, and the measured savings on the total water bills was approximately $2,400 per site, resulting in total savings of approximately $4,000 per site in the first year alone.

For these sites, that worked out to approximately $170 to $185 in savings per toilet. For details on the Toilet Rebate Program visit www. camrose.ca/toiletrebate.

The water consumption audit program will run from now to Nov. 30. Contact Jeremy Enarson or Robyn Knauft at 780-672-4428 or ToiletRebate@camrose.ca if you are interested in any of the above programs, or if you are just looking for some information on water conservation.

By Murray Green Camrose Elks Lodge will be honouring the past 90 years during an anniversary celebration on Oct. 4.

A banquet celebration will be held with honours and service awards going to past and current members.

The Elks Lodge was launched on Oct. 4, 1924, exactly 90 years ago, at the David Theatre (now Bailey Theatre) with 128 charter members.

Grand organizer P.A. Miquelon installed Dr. H.B. Ness as the first exalted ruler.

Camrose Elks have contributed to the community in many ways. The Elks purchased their first home (the old Presbyterian Church), which still stands on the northwest corner of 49 Avenue and 49 Street. The service club sponsored their first baseball team in 1925.

Many carnivals were held in the old curling rink. When the rink was replaced by a new building at the same location, the Elks were instrumental in raising much of the money needed. During the war years, the Elks Hall served as the headquarter for the Red Cross and the blood donor clinics.

In 1941, the Elks received permission and help from the town to start a project, known as Elks Park. Trees and shrubs were planted and the ground was broken and seeded to grass.

This park today is known as Jubilee Park. A substantial amount of money was raised for the first swimming pool.

When the John Russell School was destroyed by fire, the Elks Hall was turned over to the school board for classes.

In 1953-54, the present hall was moved into Camrose from Dried Meat Lake, with additions built on for the kitchen and washrooms.

This new facility provided a meeting place for Sea Cadets, Wrenettes, Girl Guides and Brownies for several years.

Also for many years, the Elks supported the Canadian Save the Children Fund.

In 1956 it was decided by the national organization to direct the efforts to Canadian children 18 years of age and younger through the Elks Purple Cross Fund and the Elks and Royal Purple Deaf Detection Fund. This fund has been renamed the Elks and Royal Purple Fund for Children.

The Camrose lodge has contributed many thousands of dollars to the fund. In return, the lodge has received thousands from the fund to help many children in the local community with financial assistance for medical conditions, hearing aids and computers. The Camrose Elks have presented four scholarships to Camrose Composite High School students for the past 33 years.

The Elks and Royal Purple hosted the provincial conferences in 1956, 1988 and 2011.

They also hosted walk-a-thons

In the past several years, the service club has donated more than $126,000 to worthwhile community projects, less fortunate groups and individuals.

Recently, a great deal of time and money went into refurbishing and updating the Elks hall with a new roof, windows, doors, drapes, floor coverings, counter tops, bathroom fixtures and paint. The latest additions are a wheelchair lift and a defibrillator.

Camrose Association invites you to be a star

By Leni Schielke

Has anyone ever told you that you are a star? If not, let me take the time to do just that.

It’s important for you to hear it, to know it and to claim it; unfortunately one of our failures as humans is not noticing the incredible.

We run through our days with our heads down and, in the rare instances we have where we can slow down and look up, we spend the time looking at our failures and imperfections. But let me

remind you that when we were little we looked higher, we looked to the stars. We didn’t see the branch from which we fell; we saw the tree we wished to climb. We never noticed the awkward ballerina practicing in the dusty hall, we saw ourselves as the nutcracker princess on stage.

So why have we stopped looking up, looking higher?

Because the world has told us to aim lower to let our imperfections guide our simple steps. Instead, let our imper-

fections be called our individuality, our trademarks our distinction from one another. They do not cause us to fail they make us different, they make us unique!

We aren’t stubbing our toes on rocks as we climb toward our goals we are stepping on stars and we are reaching for the next. Sometimes that seems difficult, sometimes the stars seem out of reach but the good news is that we are among the stars, as long as we are living our best, trying our hardest, loving

with all that we have. That is what makes you a star!

That is what makes your significance invaluable, your beauty indescribable.

Be a Star is the Camrose Association for Community Living theme for its 2014 Charity Auction. How appropriate. This organization provides services to people with disabilities, people with acquired brain injury, children with special health and developmental concerns and families at risk to develop skills and build

quality of life. The CAFCL vision is that each person is an accepted and participating community member. It believes that everyone can be a star! Cool.

Join the Camrose Association for Community Living on Oct. 18 at the CRE for its annual fundraiser and to celebrate the stars in our lives. Remember that living your best life, whatever that looks like, is doing all that it takes to be a star! Tickets available at 780-672-0257 or 4604-57 Street.

Iconic Icelandic scenery backdrop for diabetes run

By Laurel Nadon Camrose Booster

With locals banging pots and pan lids to cheer them on and live bands performing on stages along the route, a local 14-year-old teen and her mother had the experience of a lifetime as they took part in a picturesque 10 kilometre race in Iceland this summer.

The race was a way for Alexandra Soanes, who was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes three years ago, to raise funds for the Canadian Diabetes Association.

Her mother, Janet Hatch, said the scenery was incredible, with the route starting at parliament hill and winding its way through the streets of Reykjavic, with ocean and mountains as the backdrop.

“It was the most amazing run and now I’m ruined for other runs,” she laughed. “I think it broadened our horizons. We now know that there are so many causes around the world that people put time and energy into and that Canadian Diabetes Association stretches into all of those places.”

Hatch noted that it was quite the cultural experience, with many different languages spoken at the event. Team Diabetes was made up of 27 people from Canada, hailing from Edmonton, Toronto, B.C., Manitoba, and Labrador, with Soanes being the youngest member. The Canadians raised over $170,000 for the Canadian Diabetes Association.

Hatch said that the trip was eye-opening for her daughter.

“Her words when we were coming home were ‘when are we going next time?’” Hatch said. “The world is much more attainable to her now.”

Soanes described the run as “awesome,” saying that the amount of runners as well as the support from local people was surprising, and that it was a good feeling to raise money for this cause.

“We were glad to help. It was nice to see the amount of people who cared for me and wanted to support me,” Soanes said.

The streets of Reykjavic, Iceland were packed with 17,000 runners taking part in a 10 km run on Aug. 23. Camrosians Alexandra Soanes and her mother Janet Hatch took part in the race to raise funds for the Canadian Diabetes Association.

Alexandra Soanes had the opportunity to ride Icelandic horses while in Iceland for a run raising funds for the Canadian Diabetes Association.

She described the Icelandic people as friendly and independent, as they do not import many foods.

When the pair arrived, a yellow hazard level was issued for a nearby volcano, but the locals didn’t seem

concerned. The volcano had a minor eruption a few days after they left the country.

Soanes finished the Aug. 23 race in one hour, one minute and 29 seconds with Hatch finishing in one hour and 14 minutes,

amidst a throng of 17,000 runners with colourful race shirts.

Approximately a third of the population of Iceland was in the city of Reykjavic for the event, lending a festive feel to the day. Hatch said that the race route was lined with families cheering them on.

“That support was not what I expected,” Hatch said. “When I was finished, I wasn’t finished. I could have kept going.”

The race day was capped off with a cultural festival that included outdoor concerts and traditional Nordic demonstrations as well as a banquet where words of support and encouragement were offered.

“Alexandra and I really valued what they had to say,” Hatch said. “All the people were there because they were diabetic or someone they cared about was diabetic.”

Before the mother and daughter left for the run, they raised a total of $13,000 which is above and beyond the $6,100 each that was required to take part in the event to covers airfare and hotels as well as a contribution to the

Canadian Diabetes Association.

Hatch and Soanes also visited the Stollery Children’s Hospital for tips on proper dosages for insulin because of the six hour time difference. The longterm insulin called Lantus that Soanes uses must be administered at about the same time every day.

“You don’t want to double up and run the risk of seizures,” Hatch explained.

During their five days in the country, the pair also visited a waterfall, geyser and went horseback riding along cliffs on Icelandic horses. An avid horseback rider, Soanes had researched the Icelandic horse and learned that to maintain genetic integrity, horses aren’t allowed to re-enter the country once they’ve left.

With her running shoes barely unpacked, Hatch has already signed up for her next race. She will join sisters from Edmonton who she met in Iceland for a night race in Edmonton on Sept. 20. Soanes said that she wants to take part in another run next year.

I’m often nominated to be a sweeper during this time and I’m amazed how well students work together and how quickly the school is shiny and new again. Once the school is clean, the students have some time for lunch recess before their afternoon classes begin.

The students have many of the same classes as Camrose students: mathematics, science, social studies, music, crafts, physical education, and home economics. The classes that are more unique to this school system are: Japanese, usually English, traditional Japanese arts like shodo (calligraphy) and haiku. Information technology is increasing and most schools have access to the Internet. Most classrooms are decorated with neutral colours and one classroom computer for the teacher to primarily use. I have yet to see even one SmartBoard in a school.

The typical school day lasts from about 8:30 a.m. until just after 3 p.m. Students are quite busy after that time as well. Many students, usually older than elementary school, participate in school club, teams, and activities. It’s not uncommon for students to leave for the day at around 5 p.m. once their club activity is finished. Students are usually assigned nightly homework and getting homework over summer and winter vacations are the norm. The students here couldn’t believe that Camrose students didn’t have any homework to do over their summer break. Many of them said that they want to come to Canada now.

It will no doubt be a busy year for everyone in Camrose just as it has been for people in Kamifurano.

Students will work hard to learn, socialize with friends, and will make some new memories along the way. To everyone this school year, ganbatte, which means “Do your best.”

Alvar Naslund It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Alvar Naslund on September 17, 2014, at the age of 70 years. Alvar was born in Camrose, AB on March 24, 1944, to Edna and Henning Naslund. He was raised on the family farm within the Gladstone Community. He attended primary school at Palmer Earling School and then went on to Bawlf School for his later years.

After Alvar completed his schooling, he began his farming career with his Dad and brother, Harry. In the off season, he attended N.A.I.T where he completed diplomas in Welding and Mechanics.

On July 15, 1967, Alvar married Donna Lassu. They were blessed with two sons, Jeff and Lyle. The couple continued to live and farm in the Gladstone Community, raising their boys.

In 1991, Donna and Alvar moved to Camrose where they enjoyed their new home and urban life. They formed many new friendships while living in Camrose. During this time, Alvar continued to farm. Alvar and Donna enjoyed special times with relatives and friends. They spent many days camping at Skeleton Lake where Alvar enjoyed quadding, boating, fishing and campfires. Many New Year’s celebrations were spent at Fairmont Hot Springs. This became a loved family tradition. There, the days were spent skiing, swimming and playing cards. Donna and Alvar enjoyed travelling to Europe and Hawaii. Alvar’s greatest joy was the arrival of each treasured grandchild. He was blessed to be Papa to four grandsons and one granddaughter. He loved to share his stories and time with the grandkids, and he lives on in each of them.

Alvar leaves to mourn his wife of 47 years, Donna; his son Jeff (Carol) and their children Ryan, Ty and Devin; his son Lyle (Amber) and their children Ava and Jonas; as well as numerous relatives and friends. He was predeceased by his parents and one brother, Harry.

“Over 100 years of dedicated service to your community”

In loving memory of

Doreen O’Brien who passed away on September 28, 2011 Time speeds on, three years have passed Since death its gloom, it’s shadows cast.

Within our home, where all seemed bright, And took from us a shining light.

We miss that light, and ever will, Her vacant place there’s none to fill.

Down here we mourn, but not in vain, For up in Heaven, we will meet again.

– Always loved, Al and family

Junior hockey Kodiaks set to assist with Drive Away Hunger

By Murray Green

Farm Credit Canada (FCC) and the Camrose Kodiaks are on the same team when it comes to supporting the local community. Together the two organizations will be holding a Drive Away Hunger event at the Camrose Recreation Centre.

Prior to the Friday, Oct. 3 game against the Brooks Ban-

dits, FCC will collect food in a large truck in front of the arena.

“Children will be admitted free into the game with a food item and accompanied by an adult,” said Kodiaks coach and general manager Boris Rybalka. “It would be such a treat to fill this building (EnCana Arena) for the game and full the trucks up with food. It’s amazing people

give $5 when they come to their door, or at Walmart. I’m thinking let’s not forget about the people at our back door and help those in our community.

“The food we collect will stay in the community and it helps the entire community as a whole. We want to be involved in this project and we are happy to support it and give something back. People

can support the team and support the charities that the team supports. My goal is to fill the arena and those trucks.”

The Drive Away Hunger food campaign will be held in the parking lot beginning at 5 p.m. “FCC Drive Away Hunger is one of the ways we give back to rural communities where our employees and customers live and work, and we are

pleased to partner with the Camrose Kodiaks as we have done since 2008 to help support those in our community who need it most. All the donations collected in Camrose stay in our local community,” said Adam French, senior director of the Camrose District at Farm Credit Canada.

Alberta music icon sets the stage for entertainment Tanya Pattullo, patron services manager, performing arts centre Performing Arts Centre Camrose has rounded up an Alberta legend for its debut. Country star George Canyon will take to the stage during the state-of-the-art facility’s grand opening gala Saturday, Nov. 1.

“We wanted to recognize the great wealth of talent that exists in the province because the theatre itself was built for Albertans and has been supported by Albertans,” said Kerry Rajotte, general manager. “We wanted to keep the Alberta spirit alive when it came to planning the grand opening gala and George Canyon fit the bill perfectly.”

Canyon has just released a new recording, Decade of Hits, and was recently presented with his fourth gold album for Somebody Wrote Love.

He has performed for audiences all over North America, has sold over 350,000 albums and written songs for some of today’s most recognized country performers.

The gala opening of Performing Arts Centre Camrose has been a year in the making and this is an opportunity for the entire community to celebrate. With such a respected artist in an intimate setting, Nov. 1 will be a magical evening.

“This one of a kind, world class facility, deserved the same kind of opening event. We are bringing two significant and unique things together in the heart of Alberta for the people of Camrose and the surrounding area,” said Rajotte.

Tickets will be on sale to the public Sept.

24 at 10 a.m. Seating is limited but those who purchase a ticket will take part in a pre-show reception, and will be entered into a draw for an exclusive meet and greet with George Canyon. All seats in the house are $10. Pre-show reception begins at 7 p.m. and the concert starts at 8 p.m.

To purchase tickets, visit the Performing Arts Centre Camrose website at www.camroselive.ca or call the box office at 780608-2922.

The UDF program began August 7, 2014, starting with Zone A (in Area 1) and will continue for 2-3 months. Water service should not be disrupted during the flushing process. There may be a slight drop in pressure or a presence of discoloration in the water from the minerals and sediments being flushed from the pipes. If a discoloration is noticed, please turn the tap off for 15 minutes and flush from your bathtub tap until the water is clear. If there are any questions or concerns in regards to the Unidirectional Flushing Program please feel free to contact Robyn Knauft at the City of Camrose Engineering Department at 780-672-4428. For additional information please visit the City of Camrose website at www.camrose.ca.

Parliamentary Report Kevin Sorenson, M.P., Crowfoot House of Commons Reconvenes

Throughout our Crowfoot riding, students have returned to school by now and the harvesting effort is at its peak. I was pleased to meet with many constituents at various functions during the summer and at our constituency office. I am happy to report the celebrations and parades that my wife, Darlene, and I were privileged to be a part of, were always well attended. It is encouraging to see such high levels of participation at local events in all corners of our large riding. It is important for us all to take advantage of these ceremonies and events in order to meet and continue building strong relationships and strong communities.

As you may know, the House of Commons reconvenes on Sept. 15 and our Conservative caucus will continue to work on your priorities. For example, we remain steadfast about our plan to continue to create jobs and economic growth.

Hard-working taxpaying Canadians and their families understand the importance of the performance of the Canadian economy. This is why the Harper Government will continue to work hard in Ottawa to sustain our low-tax plan. You tell me, as you always have, that you want to keep more of your money where it belongs - in the pockets of Canadians and their families. Our government agrees.

The proof is in the numbers: we have cut taxes 160 times saving the average Canadian family nearly $3,400 this year; the number of Canadians living below the Low Income Cut-off is at its lowest level ever; 1 million Canadians have been removed from the tax rolls, including 380,000 seniors; 1.4 million Canadians are no longer living in poverty, including 250,000 children; after tax disposable income has risen by 10 per cent across all income levels since 2006; and, we have increased the amount families in the two lowest personal income tax brackets can earn before paying taxes. We have done all of this while staying on track to balance the budget in 2015.

In our riding and throughout Alberta, we are looking forward to the legislation promised by my colleague, the Honourable Steven Blaney, Minister of Public Safety and National Security to bring ‘common sense’ to firearms licensing.

As well, we will see the finalizing of the Canada-Europe Free Trade Agreement, and we are making progress on Bill C-36, the Protection of Communities and Exploited Persons Act, as per the Supreme Court of Canada’s deadline for Canada to have new prostitution laws.

Residents call for removal of signs on 48 Avenue

By Murray Green

More than 30 per cent of those who answered a Camrose Booster web poll about the removal of sandwich boards along 48 Avenue agreed it should be addressed to avoid distraction and the eyesore.

The City of Camrose council is considering enforcing a bylaw to reduce the number of boards on the busy roadway because of the possible distraction they cause for motorists.

More than 27 per cent of pollsters indicated they didn’t have a problem with the signs.

About 42 per cent said the city should allow it for non-profit groups. Only 4.65 per cent suggested it should be a on a fee basis.

Council discussed the mounting signage problem at its Sept. 2 meeting and agreed to bring the subject back for discussion at a future meeting.
