and we all need to pitch in and clear the sidewalks. Members of Walkable Camrose and Camrose Seniors’ Coalition encourage everyone to keep their sidewalks clear of snow and ice so people can walk safely - especially seniors and families with young children. And, since some people can’t shovel their own sidewalks or afford to pay someone else to do it for them, why not be a snow angel and clear a neighbour’s walk like these volunteers.

Business Walk gives clear picture of economic climate By Dan Jensen

Camrose Economic Development and the Battle River Alliance for Economic Development were able to get a clear picture of the current business climate in Camrose last October when they, along with various community and business service providers, conducted a Business Walk. Eighty-three businesses in the downtown area were asked to evaluate the overall health of their business and to identify what improvements could be made. Fifty-nine per cent of those visited said the current state of their business was good or increasing, compared to 29 per cent who said it was fair/steady, and 11 per cent who said it was slow or poor. Much of the slow/poor was due to the seasonal nature of the business. Fifty-six per cent of businesses cited location when asked what they liked most about doing business in the area, while 27 per cent said clientele. Most business owners expressed the wish for more support in encouraging people to shop local. “They noted they were seeing more out-of-town people shopping at their store than local people,” said a Camrose Economic Development newsletter. Businesses also expressed the need for better main street and sidewalk care, more downtown events and attractions, the cleaning of empty lots on Main Street, more downtown exposure and promotion, including better signage, transportation for seniors wishing to get downtown, a re-evaluation of Main Street taxes, the creation of more draws to all parts of downtown, and consistent opening and closing hours between stores. Asked what support they were looking for, businesses mentioned skilled employees, increased opportunities to network with other businesses, a marketing cooperative, more support for businesses from banks, communication and mentorship between businesses, and education for new small businesses. A review of the results determined that Camrose Economic Development and organizations like the Camrose Chamber of Commerce can develop programming to provide potential employees with the skills they need in the workforce and provide increased opportunities to network with other businesses through business lunches and Main Street open hours. The review also noted that the City of Camrose can re-evaluate main street taxes, provide seniors with transportation downtown and increase downtown exposure and promotion. Economic development and other community organizations will be doing a business walk in every quarter of 2015. The goal is to contact the majority of businesses in Camrose.

WALKING A MILE IN HER SHOES

Murray Green, Camrose Booster Josh Lyon of the Camrose Buffaloes football team grimaced when he walked during the Walk a Mile in Her Shoes fundraising event at the EnCana Area on Jan. 23. About 35 walkers raised more than $14,000 for the Camrose Women’s Shelter.

Historic Main Street Society conducting survey By Dan Jensen

The Camrose Historic Main Street Society wants to know what you think. “We’re going to be conducting a survey on our Facebook page and the City of Camrose website where we ask Camrosians what they would like to see in the city (specifically downtown), why they come downtown, what hours they would like businesses to be open and what kind of marketing plans they are open to,” said Camrose Historic Main Street Society coordinator Janet Hatch. “The idea is to basically gather some ideas and opinions for consideration by City Center Camrose and individual businesses and, hopefully, some action.” The society is hoping to have all the survey results calculated by early spring, in time for the launching of a new “brand” by which downtown will be known.

“We are going to be sharing the information and talking about the different directions in which we are thinking about going,” said Hatch. CHMSS is currently in the process of researching the possibility of developing a community garden in the downtown area using one of the vacant lots. “Everything you read about downtown revitalization talks about community gardens as being a good way to celebrate what you have, use space and connect with the rest of the community,” said Hatch. “The garden could be a aesthetic community asset or it could be a function of some kind of program, like the food bank, where people are able to access fresh food.” CHMSS is also looking at establishing a farmers’ market, which could possibly operate out of the old fire hall on 51 Street.

“We think that is something that could bring a sense of community, and help the downtown economy,” said Hatch. “It is one of the things for which people are continually asking. It would help to promote the walkability of the downtown core.” CHMSS has been working closely with City Center Camrose over the past few months to make maximum use of available funds, people, resources and energy and ensure that downtown Camrose remains a attractive shopping destination. “The way we go about things is different in terms of mission and targets but at the end of the day both organizations have the same goals,” said City Center Camrose general manager Al Walkey. “We want people to understand that they are part of the downtown zone and, more importantly, that they are

welcome here. We want downtown to be a place where you can meet with friends and be treated with respect, whether you are a consumer, a visitor, a guest or a resident. We call it placemaking and it is something that everyone can buy into.” CHMSS and the Camrose Historic Main Street Project that it is undertaking are part of an international program that has been adopted by Alberta Culture as a way of revitalizing downtown communities in the province which have existing assets. The program provides matching funds for marketing, organization of projects in downtown areas, as well as the restoration and renovation of buildings. “The grants that are available from the program coincide with the types of things that City

Center Camrose wants to accomplish,” said Walkey. Hatch said Camrose was fortunate to be reaccepted into the (Alberta Historical) Main Street program. “You have to have a certain threshold of historic resources and buildings and Camrose has that. Our goal is to try to capitalize on what we have and promote it even more than we do.” Hatch feels the businesses that have been in Camrose for long periods of time and have experienced many changes have a lot to teach those businesses that have not been around for as long. “It is the local businesses that have been around for so many years that really keep us ticking, They have a lot of wisdom when it comes to accommodating customers and keeping them shopping here rather than going elsewhere.”

Ofrim David

Camrose Council Candidate shares some of his thoughts on current, local matters of interest…

David, what’s your view on the new Camrose City Hall?

What do you see as priorities for this council?

What kind of future do you envision for Camrose?

How will you balance the wants versus needs of the taxpayers you represent?

“There’s no point in second-guessing this decision. I don’t want to rate or b berate the decisions of previous councils. The reality though, for the present and future councils, is how to prioritize our limited resources for the foreseeable future, so that Camrosians, in general, can best be served.”

“A renewed emphasis on basic city services. Clean, safe and l supply l of drinking water. Underground services that are reliable and ample efficient. Excellent roadways. Appropriate levels of snow removal. A clear understanding of how expensive it will be to operate and maintain city green spaces, public facilities, taxpayer funded buildings and programs.”

“A safe community. A desirable community for residents and business i I not a proponent of ‘if it’s bigger, it’s better’. We currently enjoy an investment. I’m excellent quality of life here in this city. Quite frankly, I think council should base future decision-making so that affordability of living and quality of life in Camrose is not jeopardized.”

“The short answer is with measured and thoughtful deliberation. M Most allll off us seem to have a long wish list of wants. Prudent reflection has a way of bringing us back to reality. Spending at all levels of government, including right here in Camrose, has to be in line with factual information. For the foreseeable future, due to our recent high-profile building projects in Camrose and expected reduced funding from the province, we will be forced to be very conservative spenders. Council clearly will have difficult decisions ahead. I’m ready to provide my opinions and professional perspective.”

You have not served on Council before. Why are you right for the job?

What do you hope to accomplish during this term on council?

How can we help you help us?

REFLECTIONS by Bonnie Hutchinson Blue Funkedness Week

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, It was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness… So begins Charles Dickens’ A Tale of Two Cities. For some of us, this week might qualify as both the best of times and the worst of times. Some researchers have identified late January as the most depressing time of the year. It’s far enough into the new year that we now know we’re not actually going to keep those resolutions. We’re seriously back at work and post-holiday bills are still arriving. Here in Alberta, we see some worrying trends in the economy. And of course, it’s still winter and will be for a few more months without a holiday season to celebrate. The nights are still a lot longer than the days… Researchers actually have hard data to say that a greater than average percentage of people experience anxiety and depression at this time of year. So if you’re feeling a bit down, a bit more anxious or overwhelmed than usual, you can at least have the cold comfort (and I do mean cold) of knowing you’re not alone. So how do we get out of a blue funk? According to researchers, people exercise, spend less on things they don’t need, bundle up and get outside more, pay down debt, save more… Hah! I say. Those techniques fail to take advantage of the full richness offered by a week of blue funkedness. Instead of trying to fend it off with feel good activities, try being bold. Take the opposite approach. Dive into it. Wallow. Set the timer for ten minutes. Moan, groan, whimper, pout, wail, bemoan your fate, drown in self-pity. Don’t hold back. Surrender to your inner whiner. The one time I actually tried this, as opposed to thinking about it, I had the giggles in about seven minutes. I just couldn’t sustain the misery. Just a thought. As I was pondering the infinite number of options for handling blue funkedness, something occurred to me. If this is the worst week of the year, that also makes it the best week of the year. After all, it’s only January and the worst is already over. We have eleven better months ahead! In the meantime, for the gazillionth time, I just listened to Bette Midler’s The Rose and, as always, it gave me goose bumps. The last four lines are…

In a recent Camrose Booster article on Dec. 30, 2014, the director of the Camrose Public Library, (CPL), Ms. Deborah Cryderman, made the claim that since Camrose County Council had declined her request for $142,119 for the CPL 2015 budget, it will mean a severe deterioration in library services to library users. County Council was taken aback by this public declaration and decided to give our side of the issue in public in the same manner as Ms. Cryderman has chosen to do. When Ms. Cryderman appeared before County council during its budget planning process in November, 2014, she gave no indication why she needed our commitment to increase from $100,542 to $142,119 – a whopping increase of 40 per cent. We note from the article that the provincial government will be providing the same amount ($121, 081) as it did in 2014. Camrose County provides support to libraries in the communities of Bashaw,

Bawlf, Hay Lakes and Edberg and not one of them has requested such an exorbitant increase. Further, we provide funding as a member of the Parkland Library Association in the sum of $61,871, of which 60.2 per cent, or $37,258.60, goes toward the Camrose Public Library. Support for the Parkland Regional Library provides all of our County users with access to a multitude of library resources. Funding support for shared facilities, whether it be recreation, libraries, lodge authorities, etc. has always been based on numbers of County users. Based on CPL’s own statistics for 2012 through 2014, to date, the percentage of County users is 14.2 per cent. In its budget, the CPL shows an operational deficit of some $615,778: 14.2 per cent of that deficit is $87,440.00, which would be the appropriate County share. However, the County is contributing $100,542.00, which is, in fact, an over contribution of 15 per cent. Historically, Camrose County’s contribution to the CPL has increased dramatically over the years. Direct County contributions have gone from $19,320 in 2007 to today’s amount of $81,579 – an increase of 322 per cent in eight years. The County’s supplementary contribution to CPL has increased from $11,312 in 2008 to $18,963 in 2015, an increase of 67 per cent. To be proactive as a result of fluctuating library funding levels, during the 2011 budget deliberations, Camrose County determined that funding for

libraries would be based on a five year average, so that each library could effectively budget. This information has been conveyed to all libraries that Camrose County supports, so the CPL has known, for at least four budget cycles, exactly what to expect from Camrose County as far as library funding goes. In representing our taxpayers, County Council cannot justify funding a 40 per cent increase request by the Camrose Public Library. Further, we find it disquieting that an administrator chose to ‘sandbag’ the County by way of a newspaper article rather than the normal business procedure of contacting County Council and discussing the issue in a professional manner. On behalf of County council, Don Gregorwich, Reeve, Camrose County

Bulb outs I read with interest your article about the curb bulb-outs on Grand Park Crescent in the January 20 edition of the Booster. After thinking about this for a couple of minutes, I began to wonder if the barricades on 49th Avenue and 50th Avenue might just have more to do with the reduction in traffic on Grand Park Crescent than those rather inconsequential little bulb-outs. Don’t you agree? Sincerely, Winston Smith, Camrose.

Just remember in the winter Far beneath the bitter snows Lies the seed that with the sun’s love In the spring becomes the rose. Just another thought.

Seniors’ Chat By Camrose Seniors’ Coalition

Camrose Seniors Coalition is delighted to join forces with Walkable Camrose and remind Camrose residents and business owners to keep their sidewalks clear of snow and ice over the winter season. No matter one’s age or mobility, spending time outdoors is good for everyone. People should be able to walk, maneuver a stroller, or navigate a wheelchair all year round, and it isn’t too difficult for most of us to find the time, energy and equipment to help make our sidewalks safe and accessible, even in winter. Walkable Camrose suggests “Why not walk all year round?” Camrose Seniors Coalition invites the more able-bodied among us to become snow angels. What is a snow angel? A snow angel is a community-minded person who appreciates the benefit of a good work-out. There are lots of people who are unable to clear their own sidewalks and can’t afford to hire out this service. Helping them goes a long way in keeping our community safe and accessible for everyone. Snow angels shovel their elderly neighbour’s walk in addition to clearing their own. In fact, Camrose is home

to quite a few snow angels. Members of the Camrose Boys and Girls Club shovel sidewalks as one of many ‘random acts of kindness’ committed throughout the year. Camrose Kodiaks have also been seen out and about, shovel in hand, as have various youth groups and even individual citizens with generous hearts and strong backs. In thanking all of our snow angels for all of their efforts, Walkable Camrose and Camrose Seniors Coalition also want to remind everyone to shovel safely! Since shovelling snow is a very physical activity comparable to weight-lifting, it is a good idea to warm up before venturing out into the cold. A few stretches and walking in place will raise body temperature, enhance muscle flexibility and allow the heart rate to slowly increase, which is very important for heart health. Dress appropriately. Wear layers and non-skid boots to reduce the risk of falling due to slick snow or hidden ice. Use a small shovel to reduce the risk of back and heart strain. Lift with your legs; better yet, push the snow. Rather than waiting for a two-day dump to end, shovel frequently. Clear snow every two inches, even if it means going out several times over a 24- or

48-hour period. Avoid caffeine and nicotine before shovelling as these stimulants will put even more strain on the heart. Know when to rest and when to quit. Stop as soon as you feel a little winded, lean on your shovel and enjoy the beauty of the day before easing back into a smooth, gentle shovelling routine. If done right, shovelling snow can be part of a positive winter health regime. Since Camrose has a bylaw, it may also be good for your pocket-book. Residential property owners have 72 hours to clear their walks after a snow-fall; other property owners have 24 hours (excluding Sundays and holidays). Failure to do so can result in a fine and the City can arrange to have snow removed and charge the cost to the owner or occupant of the property. Find out more about the snow removal bylaw at: http://www.camrose.com/DocumentCenter/ View/8665. This winter, Walkable Camrose and Camrose Seniors Coalition are keeping an eye out as to how well we are doing keeping Camrose sidewalks clear of snow and ice. We’re out there shovelling ourselves and we will report problem areas if we absolutely have to.

The Camrose and District Senior Society By Iris Baker

The Camrose and District Senior Society has their office at the Mirror Lake Centre, 5415-49 Avenue. It is a society for seniors (or almost seniors) over the age of 50 years. The society sponsors many clubs which hold their events at the Mirror Lake Centre. These clubs hold daily, weekly, monthly and yearly events. The clubs are: Cribbage, Canasta, Stick Rummy, Wednesday Bridge, Thursday Bridge, and Duplicate Bridge. There are dance clubs, Wednesday Night Dance Club, Rose City Square Dance, and the Camrose Wild Rose Dance Club. Other clubs are Pickleball, Table Tennis, Alberta 55, Floor Curling, Floor Shuffleboard, Pool, Scrabble and The Cam-Roses. The Senior Society is run entirely by volunteers who have made it a huge success with over 386 members in 2014, and the numbers are increasing every year. This is amazing as when the volunteers took over the Society in 2007 there were just 170 members. The executive of the Society consists of president Wilf Maertens-Poole, vice-president Darlene VanHaitsma, secretary Iris Baker, and treasurer Rose Snopek. These people work tirelessly, along with all of the coordinators of the clubs, to make this such a wonderful place to come and have fun and make new friends. Members of the clubs volunteer to work at the reception desk and also help with setting up and decorating for special functions and events. Many comments are made about the beautiful facility we have and much of it is due to the decorating by volunteers. Soon the City will move into its new building and then the Senior Society will be taking over the main floor of the Mirror Lake Centre. This will provide more room for our clubs, who are growing and bursting at the seams with the limited space we have had in the last while. The Senior Society has a yearly membership fee of $15, which entitles members to join any club they desire. The Society offers great fund, good friends and good entertainment, and exercise for all members. Come and check us out at the Mirror Lake Centre, or visit us on our website, www.camroseseniorcentre.com. You may also call the office from 10 a.m. to noon at 780-672-7022.

Why choose tile?

Tile works from contemporary to classic. With so many colors, patterns and sizes to choose from, there are countless ways to make l in your home.

What should I do W after I’ve been in a a ttraffic accident?

First of all, we hope no one was hurt in the accident.

After you have gathered your w wits about you, if possible, talk to the other party and exchange information: name, phone number, licence plate and insurance information/provider. Your next step would be to contact the police. Once you’ve talked to the police, call your insurance provider for their advice and guidance. Now it’s time to begin the job of getting your vehicle fixed. Not everyone knows this, but it is completely your choice as to where you get your vehicle fixed. Contrary to popular belief, only one estimate is needed for insurance claims. We hope you call us. We’re ready to go to work for you.

What is the travel pattern of honeymooners these days?

It used to be that newlyweds would embark on a week-long vacation to a sunny destination like Florida or Hawaii within a day or two of their ceremony. In recent years, though, honeymoon habits have changed – at least in terms of vacations! We notice that people who are tying the knot are often significantly more established than their counterparts from decades past. This allows far more interesting travel plans. In present times, it is just as common for us to book monthlong honeymoons to Thailand, Fiji, Italy, Greece, Spain or other dreamy destinations as it is to book the once-typical honeymoon jaunts to Las Vegas or Mexico. Many of our honeymooners have us arrange some fascinating excursions or optional extras for their celebration/holiday. Everything from safaris in Africa to deep-sea dives in the Great Barrier Reef to pyramid tours in Egypt. Marlin Travel, Camrose, has additionally earned the reputation as the local expert in destination weddings. Weekly, it seems, we work with couples, families and friends, to make lasting wedding and honeymoon memories. Couples have found this the very best way to take the stress out of getting married.

Relay For Life hosting fun comedy event By Murray Green The Camrose Relay for Life will launch this year’s fundraising with a fun Comedy For a Cure event on Friday, Feb. 6 beginning at 5:30 p.m. in the Norsemen Inn. “Come join us for a night of fun and laughter and support the Canadian Cancer Society,” said cochair Trish Knudson. “We will have a silent auction, food, entertainment and a

night full of dancing if you choose.” This is an over 18 age comedy show. Tickets can be purchased by email at aswedberg13 @ hotmail. com, or by calling Trish at 780-781-6251 or Ashley at 780-781-5538. They are available in advance and a table of eight can be booked. Tickets at the door will be available at a slightly higher cost. The Relay for Life will have a table set up at

Walmart to sell tickets for the show on Jan. 30 and 31. Trish is sharing the chair position with Ashley Swedberg this year with the assistance of Canadian Cancer Society revenue development coordinator Julie Barrie. The Relay for Life will be held at the Camrose Composite High School on June 20 from noon to midnight. The Relay For Life Camrose event is still looking for volunteers.

“We want to get the community involved as much as we can,” said Trish. “We are going to need help with set up and take down, and volunteers throughout the day of the event.” Relay For Life Camrose is asking the community for more teams and participants to reach the modest fundraising goal of $35,000. About $30,000 was raised last year. “We want to reach our goal of having more

teams and money raised,” said Julie. “The money goes toward programs and services, advocacy and research for the Canadian Cancer Society. We want to make life better for those living with the disease.” The event will still have a survivors’ lap and caregivers’ lap around the track to honour those who have fought hard against the disease.

What trend do you notice in Camrose real estate?

A fair bit of downsizing is taking pplace as the average age of our great ccommunity inches upward. Many of my clients have already movedd to smaller ll homes or a condominium or are quizzing me about doing so. Living in a condo does have advantages: exterior and common area repair costs are typically shared with other condo owners. Condo locations are often very handy to shopping, green space and medical facilities. They can be quite affordable. Proximity to neighbours can make condo owners feel safer. Living in a condo may mean certain chores such as snow removal, eavestrough cleaning and lawn mowing are looked after by association fees. The association also may deal with disputes and problems with neighbours. On the other hand, home ownership has advantages too. You can usually make changes or upgrades to private homes a bit easier than you can within a condo association. And there’s nothing like the privacy of a single family dwelling. You also own the land under which your home is built. Condo or single family home – either one is a good decision. The key is the right property at the right price. That’s my role for you.

Q. A:

How do I choose the right window coverings for my home?

Whether the sun is damaging yyour new floors, the neighbors can see e everything you do, or the glare on your T.V. i interfering with your favorite program, is coverin can serve many different functions window coverings while greatly enhancing the appeal of your home’s decor. Window coverings come in all types of colors, textures and materials to fit many sizes and shapes of windows. Odd shaped windows such as circles, arches, and angles can also be fitted appropriately. When there is such an extensive variety of window coverings, how does one know which style is going to be best suited for them? There are many things to consider, such as: privacy, light control, energy efficiency, maintenance and achieving a desired look. In a bedroom you may want the room to be very dark and private while in the family room you may want sufficient sunshine while still protecting your furniture. Some rooms’ views are too fantastic to block out and yet too hot or drafty to enjoy. These are just a few of the problems you may run into, and custom blinds can solve virtually any type of window dilemma. Working with a professional window-covering expert can certainly make the process easier. A professional has the experience required to choose a covering that is both functional and attractive. See your local expert, Dion Currie at Wideman Paint and Décor about selecting and installing the window coverings that are right for you. Answer provided by:

What do clients like best about their European vacations?

Because Europe offers so much history, so much to experience, and sso much to be in awe of, we cannot determine a specific pattern of repeat comments from our travellers. Lately though, Turkey has been a favourite destination. So have the Alpine countries. Europe is noted for amazing food. Remarkable fountains and impressive drawbridges. Wonderful mass transit systems. The religious institutions in Italy, Spain and the Czech Republic are awe-inspiring. The pubs in England, Scotland and Germany will be forever memorable. The waters of Italy, Greece and Portugal are among the best of the world. You will love heading back through history as you tour fabulous castles of England, the Roman Coliseum or the Pyramids of Egypt. The beauty of the French vineyards or the fields of tulips in Holland are truly captivating. River cruises rank as unforgettable for our travelling guests. You will marvel at the brilliance in architecture, no matter which country you are experiencing.

Should I contribute to an RRSP this year?

Unless you are one of the fortunate few with a government or company pension plan, it’s virtually impossible to not get excited about having (or adding to) an RRSP. RRSPs rank as the number one way to defer taxes during your years of employment. In fact, if you are in the top tax bracket, a contribution of $1000 will give you a $400 tax break! Furthermore the money you make inside your RRSP will grow tax-free until the day you start withdrawing it. This tax-deferred growth will ultimately allow you to fully enjoy your golden years. If you have not maximized the potential contribution to your RRSP in recent years you must know this: the tax deduction for your contribution can be carried forward indefinitely! And, perhaps better still: unused room in your plan can also be carried forward indefinitely. At Vision Credit Union we offer loans at very attractive rates to allow you to top up RRSPs. At present, Vision Credit Union is offering one of the very best RRSP products on the market. It is a plan which offers a rising interest rate every year in the next five. Your principal and interest are 100% guaranteed. Stop by your local branch for more information. Answer provided by:

Does acupuncture hurt?

Some patients feel no sensation as the sterile mini needles are methodically inserted slightly underneath their skin. Others may feel something equivalent to a mosquito bite. And, YES, this Traditional Chinese form of medicine has helped countless people, world-wide, for over 5,000 years. Most clients visit our practice in Camrose for pain relief. However, our treatment program (typically three sessions) has proven life-changing for people wishing to stop smoking, suffering from arthritis, fibromyalgia, carpal tunnel syndrome, tendonitis, and other illnesses or ailments. We have had terrific success assisting people suffering from diabetes, depression, chronic fatigue and even a few clients hoping to induce pregnancy! We believe in combining the science of acupressure with acupuncture. Patients are often attracted to our practice as a method of successfully breaking away from prescription medications. When appropriate, we can combine Chinese herbology with our traditional acupuncture/acupressure treatment plan. Acupuncture is recognized as safe and effective by the World Health Organization. Rarely are there side effects. We have contributed to the better health of hundreds of patients from Alberta and beyond the province. Answer provided by:

BVJ adds more performers to outdoor summer festival By Dan Jensen

Big Valley Jamboree has added a new batch of performers to its 2015 entertainment roster. Dallas Smith, one of the newest acts on the country scene, will be making his Big Valley debut at the Thursday night (July 30) RE/MAX Kick-off Party. Smith was the lead singer for the group Default before his debut solo album in 2012. He is now using his gritty, powerhouse voice for something a little more tonky tonk, but every bit as right for a party. The Grammy-winning Del McCoury Band will be performing on the main stage on Aug. 2. “The Del McCoury Band knows enough bluegrass to play through the whole long weekend, but they’ll be putting on their best in a single set when they hit the BVJ stage,”

stated a BVJ press release. “Their wheels have been turning since 1967 and they’ve learned more than a few things along the way.” Country legend Ian Tyson will be returning to Big Valley Jamboree for the first time in almost 20 years to sing the stories of a true Canadian and a real cowboy on July 31. His long career as a solo artist and as half of the duo Ian and Sylvia landed him in the Canadian Country Music Hall of Fame in 1989. Chris Young, who won the title of Nashville Star in 2006, will be another of the main stage performers July 31. Young should add a few more loyal fans with his personal style of feelgood, honest country. The Canadian country duo The Lovelocks will be making its first ever BVJ appearance Aug. 1. The multi-instrumentalist queens of country are still

working on their first fulllength album. Formerly of the band Lace and a superstar in her own right, Beverly Mahood will be performing on the main stage Aug. 2. The seven-piece outlaw band Washboard Union will be sharing its energetic and down-to-earth style of contemporary and Bluegrass country on July 31. The Washboard Union has toured extensively over the past four years. Other entertainers for Big Valley Jamboree will include the previously announced Reba, Brad Paisley, The Band Perry, Justin Moore, Lee Brice, Lady Antebellum and Corb Lund. Lady Antebellum performed the U.S. national anthem at the national college football championship at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, Jan. 12.

FRI. FEB. 13 • 8:00 PM All Seats $35 More than just fun - A show for the whole family!

More than the music, the two-time Juno winner for Best Children’s Album “Sing with Fred” and eight-time nominee’s body of work is about energy and emotional connection.

Schlosser to hold piano recital

The University of Alberta’s Augustana Campus is celebrating the opening of the Jeanne and Peter Lougheed Performing Arts Centre this year by presenting a series of free events to the public. The next offering is shaping up to be an exciting one, as it features Camrose resident and University of Alberta music professor Milton Schlosser in a solo piano recital in the new arts centre on Sunday, Feb. 8, at 3 p.m. A noted pianist and awardwinning professor, Milton will perform a provocative, wideranging program that features piano works by Beethoven, Debussy, Alexander Skyrabin, and Frederic Rzewski. As well, he plays one of his own works entitled “Blue Virgin,” a piece

inspired by France’s Chartres Cathedral and based on a blues-infused rendering of the hymn “Praise to the Lord.” Be prepared to be surprised; you will encounter a range of styles, from Viennese classical and French impressionism to folk songs, protest songs, and even a reference to country music. As well, the combination of the new theatre, new Mayer Steinway concert grand piano, and Milton’s artistry make for an event not to be missed. The Camrose recital is part of a five-city tour for Milton that begins in Grande Prairie and ends in Honolulu on Valentine’s Day. You can learn more about Milton and his musical career at www.miltonschlosser.com.

STUDENTS EXCEL AT BAILEY Murray Green, Camrose Booster Our Lady of Mount Pleasant school students Bryton Barter and Richelle Storey prepare for having a baby during a performance of Brother’s Grimm at the Bailey Theatre on Jan. 22. Teacher Elle Babin-Sather’s drama class of only nine people in Grades 10, 11 and 12 performed 43 characters between them. The students put in many extra hours to make the performance possible. The fast-paced comedy also promoted the drama program to junior high students, who were in attendance. Left: Arielle Leslie and Cynthia Lungul discuss growing long hair.

Flyin’ Bob is a one man circus By Murray Green One of the most entertaining shows for children is coming to Camrose on Saturday, Jan. 31 at 2 p.m. Flyin’ Bob and his One-man, Three-ring Circus will be at the Bailey Theatre for a fun afternoon show. He explores all of the fun and silliness for youth of all ages you can imag-

ine within three rings in his own little circus. A simple balance of a peacock feather, flying boom box, giant chair stack, vertical bowling and a nearly disastrous high wire walk are some of his routines on stage. Tickets are available at the Bailey Box Office or online. Hours are Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. expect it is closed 2 3 pm for lunch).

Music for the theatre You are invited to a twopart staged and costumed vocal theatre event featuring students from the 331 class of Professor Kathleen Corcoran at the Augustana Campus of the University of Alberta. Music for the Theatre is slated for Thursday, Feb. 5, at 7 p.m. in the Augustana Campus Faith and Life Chapel. The first half of the show is a music drama based on a selection of musical theatre songs which identify the hopes, fears, aspirations and personal accounts of students in their very first university class meeting at the start of the academic year. Unsure of what to expect and initially uncomfortable with speaking in class, these students make great strides forward in just one class following their professor’s ‘over-the-top’ example! Personalities collide and much is revealed through the ‘getting to know you’ exchange, which then concludes with an inspirational philosophical adage. The second half of the evening involves fully-frocked presentations of exquisite solos from the operatic aria repertoire. An entertaining evening for opera and musical theatre fans. Tickets are available at the door. For further information, contact the Augustana Fine Arts Office at 780-6791532.

By Murray Green

Three teams from the Northern Alberta Curling Association Men’s Northern Zone Playdowns at the Rose City Curling Club Jan. 15 to 18 advanced to provincials. The James Pahl rink from Strathcona won the A event with four straight victories. The foursome of Pahl, Ted Appelman, Mark Klinck and Roland Robinson defeated Glen Hansen 6-4, Scott Manners 8-1, Mike Hutchins 7-5 and Jamie King 7-2 to grab the top spot. King beat Andrew Dunbar 6-3, Shawn Donnelly 8-2 and Shawn Broda 9-6 before losing to Pahl. King’s men were sent to the B event with the loss, but bounced back to beat Warren Cross 7-2 and Hansen 7-1 to earn the B title. King’s St. Albert rink also includes Jeff Erickson, Warren Hassall and Glen Kennedy. Jessi Wilkinson took the long road, but emerged as the C event winner and grabbed the last provincial berth. His rink of Wilkinson, Michael Lambert, Neal Woloschuk and Morgan VanDoesburg from Ellersie lost 5-3 to Donnelly to drop to the B side. They lost 7-3 to Manners to be regulated to the C event. Wilkinson’s team then went to work to put a string of victories together.

Hansen advances to Alberta Cadet Biathlon Championships By Murray Green

Warrant Officer First Class Alexander Hansen of the 644 Cougars Royal Canadian Air Cadet Squadron in Camrose qualified for the Alberta Cadet Biathlon Championships (provincials) at the Canmore Nordic Centre Jan. 30 to Feb. 1. Cadets from across Alberta will be tested in skiing and marksmanship skills. Hansen has participated in cadets and biathlon for seven years. “This is the first time that I qualified for provincials,” he said. “To qualify, I had to compete in biathlon in Camrose. We had six or seven of us in my unit that were in biathlon. We are timed and it determines whether we go on to provincials.” He was timed in running and his target scores were recorded. “At provincials it will be a 10 kilometre cross-country ski course. I have been practising my skiing for a couple of hours every night trying to improve,” he said. “I’ve always liked shooting and that is my strong point. I just need to work on my skiing.” Cadets and biathlon runs in the Hansen family. “I’m following in my sister’s (Katie) footsteps, who went to nationals twice. I’m just following up behind her,”

Warrant Officer Alexander Hansen will be competing in the cadet biathlon provincials in Canmore, Jan. 30 to Feb. 1.

said Alexander. “Biathlon is my favourite sport. My goal is to try my hardest and hopefully move on to the nationals, which I think is in Quebec. I have to make the top five in my age group (youth 17 and 18) to qualify.” Alexander wanted to participate in biathlon to get the most out of his cadet experiences. “I like facing challenges, but my cadet time ends in

June. I wanted to test my physical and mental abilities in shooting and skiing with biathlon. I’m looking at it as a challenge to myself. I’m thinking about joining the army and learning the welding trade at the same time.” Parent volunteer Kona Gilbertson, who has helped coach shooting, will be going with Alexander to the Canmore provincials.

Licence your dog before Jan. 31 By Dan Jensen

Time is running out for Camrose residents wishing to licence their dog(s). The City of Camrose animal control bylaw (2357/07) requires all dogs six months of age or older to be licenced prior to Jan. 31 of each year. The fee for altered dogs (those that have been spayed or neutered) is $20. The fee for unaltered dogs and guard dogs six months of age and over is $40. A voluntary licence fee for puppies under six months is $10. The licence fee for a dangerous dog (meaning a dog of any age, including a guard dog that has chased, attacked or bitten any person or other domestic animal, shown a propensity, disposition or potential to attack or injure without provocation, or been made the subject of an order under the Dangerous Dog Act) is $150. “While the Animal Control Bylaw does not classify any specific breeds as dangerous or vicious, any dog

could be deemed dangerous based on the actions/behaviour of that dog,” states the City of Camrose website. The cost of obtaining a licence after Jan. 31 is $30 for an altered dog, $50 for a unaltered dog or guard dog, and $250 for a dangerous dog. Owners of dangerous dogs must maintain in force a policy or liability insurance in a form satisfactory to the city manager, providing third party liability coverage in a minimum amount of $500,000 for injuries caused by the dog. Owners who licence their dogs are issued a metal dog tag which has been stamped with a number and the year of the licence. The tag must be attached to the collar or harness worn by the dog. The fine for having an unlicenced dog is $75 for first offence. Fines for second and subsequent offences are $150 and $300 respectively. No person living in Camrose is allowed to own

more than three dogs older than six months at one time unless he or she is the holder of a kennel licence. Owners must remove any defecation left by their dog on public property or private property other than their own. Camrosians who have had their dog impounded must pay pound fees to cover the cost of taking care of it. They may also be given a ticket for allowing the dog to run at large. Any dog which has been placed in a pound shall be kept therein for a period of not less than three clear days, exclusive of Saturdays, Sundays and statutory holidays, unless claimed by the owner or otherwise disposed of in accordance with the Animal Control Bylaw. The Camrose Peace Officer may be reached by calling 780-672-8300 during business hours. After hours calls may be directed to the Camrose Police Service at 780-672-4444.

Winter Walk Day February 4 By Dan Jensen

The City of Camrose, Camrose Walkers and Walkable Camrose are inviting residents to participate in a Full Moon Walk in celebration of Winter Walk Day Wednesday, Feb. 4. “We’re encouraging people to meet at the Stoney Creek Centre at 6:30 p.m., walk the Stoney Creek Trails under a full moon for an hour, take lovely photos and afterwards gather inside the centre for complimentary hot beverages courtesy of the Camrose Primary Care Network” said Walkable Camrose committee spokesperson Lucy Ernst. “It will be a family friendly event and everyone is welcome.” Winter Walk Day is an annual event in which thousands of Albertans celebrate winter and the benefits that walking provides for our health, the environment, reduced traffic and stronger communities. Many health experts recommend cold-weather walking as an opportunity to get the fitness you need, keep bones strong, improve mood and burn calories. Outdoor walking through the park or around the neighborhood on a cold day won’t burn any more calories than walking on a warm summer day, but walking in the snow will. You expend more energy because it’s harder to move your feet in the snow, and you lift your legs a little higher. Camrose Walkers is a group of 39 members who meet regularly to walk

James “Jack” McLean 1929 – 2015 James ‘Jack’ McLean of Red Deer, AB, passed away peacefully at Extendicare Michener Hill in Red Deer on Wednesday, January 21, 2015 at the age of 86 years. Jack was born on January 6, 1929 near Unity, SK. Jack and Dolores married in 1952 and, by 1958, had welcomed four sons, one who died in infancy. They moved 72 times following the drilling rigs. They then settled in Lloydminster and had four more children before moving to Burstall, SK in 1964. After 13 years in Burstall, Jack and Dolores lived in Yellowknife, Taylor, Fort St. John and Yorkton, and then retired to Camrose in 1994. Jack was a kind, quiet, patient man and a role model who never missed work, believed in education and loved his family. He spent many evenings in Burstall, earning his High School Diploma and then his First Class Power Engineering by correspondence. He had an amazing ability to concentrate while seven kids roamed the house. Jack never stopped reading and researching topics that interested him. The kids in Burstall referred to the McLean house as ‘Jack’s Place’, showing how much Jack and Dolores made them feel welcome. He loved family camping trips, especially in later years when the grandchildren took turns visiting him around the firepit. He had a quiet sense of humor and enjoyed Bugs Bunny, Road Runner, Tim Conway and Bob Newhart. Jack loved to golf, always walking the course and worked on his swing all winter. He always helped with dishes, loved puttering in the yard and house, and was the best friend to any dog that came along. Jack will be lovingly remembered by his children Lory, Kelly, Sharon, Joanne, Brian and David; and his grandchildren and great grandchildren. He will also be sadly missed by his sister Dorothy, as well as numerous other relatives and dear friends. Jack was predeceased by his wife of 58 years, Dolores; and two sons Barry and Robert. A Memorial Service will be held at a later date. If desired, memorial donations in Jack’s honor may be made directly to Parkinson Alberta at www.parkinsonalberta.ca. Condolences may be sent or viewed at www.parklandfuneralhome.com.

Thunderstars host atom provincials By Murray Green

Colleen Lindholm, from Primary Care Network, Margaret Holliston, from Camrose and District Support Services, and Lucy Ernst, from Walkable Camrose, are encouraging Camrose residents to participate in a Full Moon Walk in celebration of Winter Walk Day Feb. 4.

outdoors on various routes within the city. Walkable Camrose is a local committee comprised of community partners who meet monthly to look at ways to enhance recreation and destination walking in the community. The group is currently focusing on safety accessibility and creating a culture of walking. Keep warm Check the weather forecast and be sure to pay attention to the windchill index. This index likens the way your skin feels to the

temperature on a calm day. For example, if the outside temperature is -10 Celsius and the windchill is -20 Celsius, it means that your face will feel as cold as it would on a calm day when the temperature is -20 Celsius. Dress in breathable layers to keep warm and avoid overheating. Wear a hat. Most of your body heat is lost through your head. Wear warm, waterproof boots, roomy enough to allow wiggle room for your toes. Ensure that your footwear has good grip for snow/icy areas.

Hockey Alberta has selected the ThunderStars Minor Hockey Association as hosts for the 2015 atom “B” provincial championship tournament. “It is our goal to make this a memorable event for all. Hockey players, coaches and spectators from across Alberta will become a part of the communities of Daysland and Forestburg during the weekend of March 13 to 15,” said Christie Bendfeld, one of the organizers. “We anticipate a minimum of 160 players attending.” The tournament will take place in both the Daysland Arena and the Forestburg Arena and will provide those communities with a great weekend of hockey excitement. The ThunderStars Minor Hockey Association provincial committee would like everyone to be a part of this great event. “This is a major fundraiser for our association that allows us to keep our registration fees low for our local minor hockey players. We are looking for businesses and individuals interested in program advertising, or donating merchandise and prizes,” said Bendfield. “It takes a great number of volunteers to make an event like this successful. Some volunteer duties include scorekeeping, working time clock and penalty box, selling programs, gate admission, working raffle table and booth duty. We will gladly accept any volunteer help throughout the provincial weekend. If you would be interested in volunteering, contact Sue Davis at kevdavis@telusplanet. net or text at 780-679-5785.” For more information contact Christie at christiebendfeld@gmail.com, phone 780-678-6197, or 780-374-2361.

Marianne Kemle Marianne Gail Kemle was born on April 4, 1962 in Camrose, AB, the daughter of Leroy and Florence Johnson. She grew up in the Meeting Creek area along with her brothers Roger and Doug. Marianne attended school at Meeting Creek and Edberg and enjoyed Sunday school and church activities in her home church in Meeting Creek. In her teens, Marianne took the step of baptism as an outward expression of her faith in the Lord. She enjoyed a variety of sports, her favorite being downhill skiing. One winter, she had the challenge of being a participant in the Alberta Winter Games held in Grande Prairie. Following graduation, Edmonton became her home where she worked and taught skiing at Snow Valley Ski Club. Wanting a change of scenery, Marianne moved to Calgary where she met her future husband Ron. They were married on February 6, 1993 and, in the years that followed, Andrew and Rebecca were born to complete the family. Growing up on a farm gave Marianne a strong work ethic that was evident throughout her life. She was a devoted wife and mother who took pride in her home and loved working in her yard. Being a true “goalie’s mom”, she faithfully attended Andrew and Rebecca’s hockey games. Keeping a positive outlook on life and helping her family were her priorities. In her last years, Marianne battled some serious health issues and God chose to end her journey here. She passed away peacefully, surrounded by the love of her family on January 10, 2015. Marianne was predeceased by her father Leroy and father-in-law Eric. She will be lovingly remembered and dearly missed by her husband Ron; their children Andrew and Rebecca; her mother Florence; and brothers Roger and Doug (Karmyn) Johnson; her mother-in-law Marge Kemle; sister-in-law Sue (John) Beard; brother-in-law Bruce Kemle; and nine nieces and nephews. Also surviving are several uncles, aunts, cousins and many friends. She was deeply loved and will be sadly missed. Our comfort is knowing Marianne now rests in the arms of her Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. A Celebration of Life was held at Shepherd King Lutheran Church, Calgary, AB on Saturday, January 17, 2015. Our sincere thanks for the many expressions of sympathy and love shown to us after the passing of Marianne. We are grateful for the flowers, food, beautiful cards, memorials and prayers. To those who travelled to Calgary for the service, your presence and support meant a lot to us. We treasure the beautiful memories we have of Marianne. With thanks, Ron, Andrew and Rebecca Kemle, Florence, Roger, Doug (Karmyn) Johnson and families

David James McNutt March 1, 1945 – January 16, 2015 Mr. David McNutt of Camrose passed away on Friday, January 16, 2015 at the age of 69 years. David was the baby in the family, born on March 1, 1945 in Victoria, BC. He had two brothers George and Robert and one sister Joyce. At the early age of 16, he joined the Canadian Navy and was proud to serve his country. Throughout the years, he had many jobs which gave him a chance to travel the world. He managed to live in just about every province in Canada – Ontario, Quebec, BC, Manitoba and finally Alberta. He worked his way up to become the Vice President of Zellers. He loved bowling and was happy to be the first person to represent it in Australia as five-pin bowling. I, his wife Melissa, was very pleased to have married such a wonderful, kind-hearted gentleman on October 7, 2007. He showed me a good life is possible if you work hard at your dreams. Although David had many illnesses for so many years, he still believed that God would give him the strength to enjoy life. When David and I got together, he fought every bit to live life again and live it even better. Left to cherish his memory are his wife Melissa; and his three children Paul (Beverly) of Calgary, Karen (Bob) Davis of Camrose, and Christopher of Edmonton. David is also survived by his nine grandchildren, one brother and one sister. He was predeceased by his parents. A Funeral Service was held on Friday, January 23, 2015 at 1:00 p.m., from Bawlf Lutheran Church with Rev. Bill Harder officiating. Cremation has taken place. If friends so desire, memorial contributions are gratefully accepted to The Salvation Army. To send condolences, please visit www.burgarfuneralhome. com.

Gregory Albert Parsons August 28, 1948 – January 17, 2015 Dr. Gregory Albert Parsons was born in Edmonton on August 28, 1948. He was the first son for Dr. Ladd and Marjorie Parsons. Within a year, they moved to Camrose where Dr. Ladd established Parsons Family Chiropractic. Greg grew up in Camrose and spent many hours as a Wildrose Arena rink rat, shoveling the ice in between games and catching any spare ice time he could. Greg loved hockey in the winters and competitive swimming in the summer. Greg graduated high school in 1966 from Camrose Lutheran College. It was here he patrolled the blueline for the CLC Vikings and met his future wife Patricia Brook. They married in July 1968. Greg and his younger brother Graham spent many hours playing hockey in the front driveway. Greg loved his brother very much and was especially proud the day he was selected in the NHL draft by the Montreal Canadians. Greg followed in his father’s footsteps, graduating from Palmer College of Chiropractic in 1973. Also that same year his son Bradly Laurence was born. Greg and Pat returned to Canada to begin practice with Dr. Ladd. In 1975, his daughter Terri Lee was born. His family was complete! In 1977, tragedy struck and Greg lost his mother in a car accident. He would talk lovingly about the memories of her and the pride she would have had in her grandchildren’s accomplishments. She would have been extremely proud of him as well. Among his own interests of hunting, fishing and camping, he enjoyed watching his kids compete in hockey, fastball and horseback riding. Greg also loved his community and, while maintaining a thriving clinic, he volunteered with the Kinsmen, K40s, Alberta Chiropractors Association and Friends of STARS. In 2001, Dr. Greg was happy to welcome his son Dr. Brad to the family practice. He was extremely proud to have three generations of chiropractors in the family. Becoming a grandfather became his greatest accomplishment. Whether spending time watching his grandchildren compete in sports or just sitting in his chair with them, love and pride resonated very strongly with Greg. With Kailyn, his oldest granddaughter, he shared a fun working relationship at his office as well as watching her patrol the blue line as he did for various hockey teams. “Mr. Chase”, as he called him, was his knowledge-sharing buddy. The two exchanged worthless facts that both would brag about knowing. Dylan loved spending time driving around with Grandpa listening to his love of the local wildlife, and you could often catch the pair of them sharing an A&W burger outside of the school. Jack and Grandpa spent lots of time at the hockey rink sitting together and keeping the concession in business. Grandpa always enjoyed watching Jack play hockey and would laugh when he took a penalty for maybe being a little too aggressive. Princess Macy always had a special place in Grandpa’s heart, and he was always impressed with her awareness of everything family related. She got her sharp memory from him and he was always impressed with how fast she could skate. Sir Jett was Grandpa’s wrestling match. They loved to play fight and Jett would always get the better of him with a little help from Grandpa’s kind soul. Gregory Albert Parsons passed away at the U of A Hospital on January 17, 2015 at the age of 66 years. A Funeral Service was held at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday, January 24, 2015 from Camrose United Church with Rev. Brian Hunter officiating. If family and friends so desire, memorial donations are gratefully accepted to Kidsport Camrose (6010-48 Avenue, Suite 318, Camrose, AB T4V 0K3) or to S.T.A.R.S.

City to review drinking water safety By Dan Jensen

The City of Camrose will be completing a major review of its Drinking Water Safety Plan in 2015. “Things are changing with the addition of the new pump station so we want to make sure that the Drinking Water Safety Plan is updated,” said City director of engineering Jeremy Enarson in a presentation to Camrose City council Jan. 19. “With the new pump station some of the City’s existing risks will be reduced or eliminated while other risks specific to the facility will be introduced.” A Drinking Water Safety Plan (DWSP) is a legislated requirement from the provincial government initiated in 2011 in order to enhance drinking water quality standards and procedures. “It is based on detailed knowledge and analysis of the entire water supply system from source to tap to ensure safe and reliable water at all times,” said Enarson. “The DWSP aims to reduce the chance of water safety incidents and/or extended service disruptions before they happen.” The plan scores risks at the source node (everything in the watershed up to treatment works), the treatment node (all assets, procedures and processes in the treatment works), the network node (assets, procedures and processes from the finished water leaving the treatment works to the arrival at the consumers’ premises), and at the consumer node (residential, commercial and industrial property). Something that is conceivable but has an extremely small chance of happening in the next five years receives a low value (scoring number), while something that is expected to happen at least once in the next five years receives a high value. Key risk examples would include livestock grazing along a water source (source node) and the possible contamination of the source water, chemical supply lines delivering two different chemicals at the water treatment plant, and cross connections within homes and businesses as a result of contaminants being pulled into the water distribution system during times of low or negative pressure. “When measuring and scoring likelihood we look at how likely that risk will happen in the next four or five years,” explained Enarson. “When measuring and scoring consequence we look at what the outcome of the risk happening would be, including health impacts or service interruption.” The City of Camrose identified and assessed over 180 risks for the whole system when it conducted its current DWSP in 2014. The risks are kept confidential as some of the information could jeopardize the safety of the water system if publicized. City team members who are involved in the development of the DWSP include public works staff at the treatment facility, pump stations and distribution system, and public works supervisors Jim Kupka, Sean Mascaluk and Mike Hisey. The DWSP acts as a single consolidated source for all relevant information about the water supply system.

Changing of the guard at Fountain Tire Fountain Tire has new owner-managers at its two Camrose stores. Randy McCrea has been named managing partner of the company’s downtown tire and automotive service retail store, and Jason Fleck has been appointed managing partner at Fountain Tire’s mixed retail and commercial tire location on Highway 13. McCrea succeeds Mike Kierluk, who recently retired after 35 years of service in Camrose. “Mike will certainly be missed in the Fountain Tire family and we would like to wish Mike and his family many years of happiness in his retirement,” said Doug Fleck, partner in both the downtown and Highway 13 stores. “When someone leaves that opens up the opportunity for others and we are glad to have two individuals who have proven themselves to be outstanding service providers and earn the trust of their customers.” Randy will be taking over from Mike at the downtown location, “He is more than ready for the opportunity,” said Doug. “Jason will be a comanaging partner in union with me at our location at the Hi-Way 13 location and he, also, is more than ready for the opportunity to become a partner and manager.” In keeping with Fountain Tire’s steadfast belief that local ownership inspires

Jason Fleck

Randy McCrea

exceptional service, McCrea and Fleck each own equity in their store. Unique among tire and automotive service retailers, this shared ownership business model has enabled Fountain Tire to become one of Canada’s leading retail networks. Both Randy McCrea and Jason Fleck were born and raised in Camrose. McCrea joined Fountain Tire in 2008 on the front sales desk of the Camrose downtown store. He was later promoted to assistant manager before being named managing partner. “Camrose is a special place because people here place great stock in strong relationships and make a point to treat each other like neighbours,” said McCrea. “My goal every day is to ensure that every customer gets the highly personalized service they deserve.”

Fleck joined Fountain Tire in Camrose in 1998 as a tire technician. He was subsequently promoted to sales and made assistant manager. He was transferred to the company’s head office in Edmonton, working on the implementation of a new computer point of sale program and then moved to Golden, where he served as manager of Fountain Tire’s store there. In 2012, he returned to the company’s mixed store location on Highway 13 to work alongside his father and mentor. “Camrose is a beautiful city and a great place to raise a family,” said Fleck. “We’re proud to have deep family roots here. Our focus is on providing the highest quality service experience for our valued customers and contributing to the strength of this vibrant community.”

Royal Canadian Legion seeks assistance with moving cenotaph to new site at Camrose museum By Murray Green

The Camrose branch of the Royal Canadian Legion and the City of Camrose have found a new home for the cenotaph and flag poles. A new concrete pad will be built and the cenotaph relocated to the area south of the Camrose and District Centennial Museum with Canada Day as the target for a grand opening. However, now comes the hard part. “We need about $75,000 for the pad and relocation. The City has agreed to fund half of the cost. We are hoping the community citizens will help us with additional funds to complete the construction. The Legion doesn’t have the funds to pay the other half,” said Comrade Ragnar Gislason. “This is a community project and the cenotaph belongs to the City and the citizens of Camrose and area.” The Harry Connor chapter of the IODE (Imperial Order of Daughters of the Empire) donated the

original First World War memorial to the citizens of Camrose before there was a Legion. “As soon as the ground thaws, we hope to start the concrete construction,” said Ragnar. “We need close to $40,000 and the Battle River Community Foundation has started us off with $12,500.” The cenotaph originally was located downtown, then moved to where the old outdoor swimming pool was (near Parkview Place) and then to the 48 Avenue location. Since the Legion moved last year, the cenotaph has been in storage waiting for its new home. The City donated the land to the new cenotaph site, but the price tag for building a concrete pad and moving the monuments is in the $75,000 range. The Legion has donated a lot of money to the community over the years, but doesn’t have enough funds in place to move the ceno-

taph because of rules on dispersing money that is collected through the Poppy Fund. “We will be asking veterans affairs to help us, but we are asking the businesses and citizens to donate to assist us to cover the costs,” said Ragnar. The monument will feature three pieces in a tribute to the veterans of the First World War, Second World War and several conflicts. The cenotaph is not only used for honouring those who lost their lives during the wars, or conflicts, but also on Remembrance Day, Decoration Day (last Sunday in August), the Battle of Atlantic in May, D-Day (June 6), Canada Day and any activity where they honour the fallen. Donations marked Cenotaph Fund are excepted at the Camrose branch and are tax deductable. You can also call the Legion at 780-6723325, or Ragnar at 780-6723437 for more information.

2015 Ford Fusion Simply irresistable

Dan Madison By Dan Jensen

The 2015 Ford Fusion at Lamb Ford Sales is bound to capture your attention. From the elegant grille to the radiant LED taillights, lamps, Ford Fusion's sculpted lines and swept-back silhouette prove irresistible to the eye. Inside, a high degree of craftsmanship extends even to the lighted, lined and lockable glove compartment. Performance Equip your gasolinepowered Fusion with a standard 2.5 litre IVCT four-cylinder engine or one of two EcoBoost turbocharged, direct-injection powerplants. With robust low-end torque and virtually no turbo lag, EcoBoost technology squeezes maximum power from each drop of fuel. Along with impressive efficiency. The 1.5 litre engine with six-speed SelectShift automatic transmission and Auto Start-Stop uses just 6.3 litres of fuel per 100 km. For performanceminded drivers, the 2.0 litre EcoBoost teams with a SelectShift automatic whose six speeds can be paddle-shifted from the

steering wheel. As you accelerate through corners, standard Torque Vectoring Control enhances your hold on any road. Fusion Hybrid delivers exceptional ride and handling as it seamlessly switches between its 2.0 litre Atkinson-cycle fourcylinder gas engine and electric traction motor to help maximize fuel efficiency. In fact, it can operate in electric mode even at highway speeds, thanks to an advanced lithium-ion battery that powers the electric traction motor. To coach you how to drive more effectively, vibrant "Efficiency Leaves" grow on the Fusion Hybrid SmartGauge with EcoGuide instrument cluster. The more efficient the drive, the more lush your green leaves – giving you instant feedback. Recharging your battery as you drive, the Regenerative Braking System captures over 90 per cent of the brake energy and uses it to help maximize your efficiency. Even when you are braking you're moving forward. With 2.7 litres per 100 km city/highway combined (electricity and gas), an all-electric driving range of up to 32 km

and a gas-plus-electric driving range of 901 km, the Fusion Energi Plug-in Hybrid may run all-electric and use no gasoline at all on short commutes – even while cruising at highway speeds. You can recharge at home in about 2.5 hours using the LEDilluminated charge port and certain Ford recommended 240-volt home charging stations. Monitor and schedule charging at home at one of the growing number of public charging stations. Finely crafted Relax in supportive leather-trimmed 10-way power, heated front seats with driver's side memory. Recharge your devices with a convenient 110volt power outlet. Enjoy the output from a well-balanced, 12-speaker audio system from Sony. Setting the ambient lighting to your choice of seven hues brings it all together. A new Terracotta package adds beauty with Terracotta-coloured premium leather-trimmed seats and more. Your sense of responsibility is also satisfied inside the Fusion. Nearly 40 recycled 16-ounce bottles go into the EcoCloth seats on select models, while recycled material

is used for the injectionmoulded splash shields and other underbody components. SYNC voice-activated technology delivers handsfree calls, music and more with simple voice commands. Once paired with your phone it can download your contacts and play Bluetooth-streaming music. Or, plug in your MP3 player, USB or iPod to listen to your favourites. Just push a button on the steering wheel and say things like "Call Ashley Martin" or "Play playlist: Rock." Fusion responds to your touch as well via the eight inch colour LCD touch screen on SYNC with MyFord Touch. Colourful graphics, a large touch screen and simple controls make it easy to operate your phone, entertainment, navigation and climate. For interactive maps you can zoom and scroll, or Aupgrade to the voice-activated Navigation System. Advanced technology Ford Fusion helps you maintain your lane with a Lane-Keeping system. It can help detect lane markings with a forward-facing camera and send vibration pulses to the steering wheel and apply steering

torque if needed, prompting you to steer back toward centre. Make parallel parking easier with active park assist. This system not only helps you find a spot, it actually steers the vehicle into place while you control the gear shifter, brake and accelerator pedals. Get a heads-up from adaptive cruise control and collision warning with brake support. This system helps maintain your choice of four preset gaps from the vehicle in front of you and can alert you to a potential collision. If one is detected, it flashes a warning on the windshield, sounds an alarm, and preps the braking system to help. Stay alert to traffic detected in blind spots as you drive forward, or traffic nearing either side of the vehicle as you slowly back up, thanks to BLIS (Blind Spot Information System) with cross-traffic alert. It can help warn you using lights embedded in the sideview mirrors. You can see the 2015 Ford Fusion at Lamb Ford Sales, 3771-48 Avenue, Camrose. Phone 780-6722411 and ask for one of the friendly sales professionals.

Alberta Health Services delivers smoke free message By Dan Jensen

“Keep your homes and vehicles smoke free” was the message Alberta Health Services was delivering as part of National Non-Smoking Week. “While the majority of Albertans do choose smokefree environments, the minority of Albertans who don’t choose to keep their environments smoke free remain at very real risk of consequences,” said Dr. Ifeoma Achebe, central zone medical officer of health. “Second hand smoke can cause serious respiratory

infections like bronchitis and pneumonia. It can also result in more frequent ear infections and increased respiratory symptoms like coughing, wheezing and shortness of breath, which can make asthma attacks more severe.” Infants and children are very sensitive to thirdhand smoke exposure, which builds up on surfaces in a home or vehicle, including furniture, clothing, drapes and carpets, where it can last for months. “Infants and young children breathe near, crawl on, play on, touch and even taste

these surfaces, not knowing that they’re contaminated with third-hand smoke,” said Dr. Achebe. “Opening windows may get rid of the smell, but it won’t remove the chemicals from the air or from the surfaces.” In addition to the health risks associated with secondand third-hand smoke exposure, there is also potential concern related to the vapour from e-cigarettes. While more research is needed into the safety of e-cigarettes, some research has already found toxins contained in the vapour produced by some

of them. These toxins can increase the risks of inflammation and constriction in the lungs and airways. AHS Tobacco Reduction Program has a number of resources available to support Albertans in creating and maintaining environments free from tobacco and the potential risks of e-cigarettes, including decals that can be placed on windows in the home or in a vehicle to declare them as smoke-free spaces. The resources are available from www.albertaquits.ca. Seven thousand chemi-

cals, including 69 known to cause cancer, are contained in tobacco smoke. Environments that are not smoke free expose people to these chemicals via second-hand smoke. Alberta Health Services is the provincial health authority responsible for planning and delivering health supports and services for more than four million adults and children living in Alberta. Its mission is to provide a patient-focused, quality health system that is accessible and sustainable for all Albertans.

By Dan Jensen Face painting, cool crafts, parachute flipping, wall climbing and ice cream, will be on the menu when the Augustana Residence Life staff hold their annual Rocky Road Ice Cream Carnival from 1 to 4 p.m. this Sunday, Feb. 1, in the university gymnasium. “It’s going to be a funfilled afternoon with a Wild Wild West theme,” said Augustana residence hall coordinator Sarah McCrae. The Rocky Road Ice Cream Carnival was created in 1993 by students who were looking to put on an affair for the children and youth of the community. The proceeds from this year’s event, including the $3 admission fee and raffle sales on door prizes, will be used to support the Camrose Open Door Association, which provides youth ages 11 to 24 with many services, including emergency shelter, basic needs, housing, counseling and skill development. “It is a great way to have fun as well as to support a good cause,” said McCrae. Augustana residence life is currently looking for support of businesses that would be willing to provide merchandise for its raffle and silent auction, or financial support that will help with the purchase of materials that are needed for the event. “Any contribution is greatly appreciated,” said McCrae. “We would like to maximize our contributions to the Open Door.” More information about the carnival and the different ways you can get involved may be obtained by emailing McCrae at mccreae@ualberta.ca, Veronika Deliyannikis at deliyann@ ualberta.ca (780-679-1111), or Jordan Tersteeg at tersteeg@ualberta.ca (403-8162331).

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.

Kodiaks launch winning streak By Murray Green

The Camrose Kodiaks garnered three goals in the first period and went on to defeat the Calgary Canucks 5-3 Jan. 21. The Kodiaks’ power play unit connected twice in the opening frame and went three for six to show signs of getting hot. Cam Gotaas, Brett Njaa and Ryker Leer scored in the first. Spencer Kryczka netted the second period tally and Gotaas added his second of the night in the third frame. Reid Kilburn made his debut in the Camrose net and stopped 15 of 18 shots to pick up the victory. Camrose doubled the Drumheller Dragons 4-2, Jan. 18. “I think we just needed to get over that rough patch. We are back playing the hockey we were before Christmas, which is skating, using our speed, and hitting,” said Adam Wheeldon, who came over from the British Columbia Junior Hockey League before the season. “We may not score the pretty goals, but we have to realize that and work hard to keep winning.” The bad stretch may be behind the Kodiaks. “Every team goes through a bit of a slump at some point. You can’t be the best team all of the time. We just have to get back to doing what we do best,” said Wheeldon. Jody Sick started the scoring just over a minute into the contest and it took the Dragons until the last minute of the period to reply on a power play opportunity. In the second, defenceman Stefan Danielson notched the go-ahead tally before Drumheller replied in the third frame. Nelson Gadoury’s shorthanded marker proved to be the game winner and then he sealed the game with an empty net tally. Goalie Devin McDonald kept the Kodiaks in the game with 39 saves on 41 shots. Camrose fired 32 on the Dragons’ cage. Wheeldon is happy to make the move to Alberta. “This was the first time that I was traded in my career and I was excited to get the opportunity to play on a good team. The coaching, players, facility and city are awesome and I’m excited,” he said. “The last three years we didn’t go very far in the playoffs, so to come here to a team with a winning atmosphere is awesome. I’m excited to go far in the playoffs.” The Kodiaks led 2-0 against the Grande Prairie Storm after Danton Davis and Ryker Leer supplied the goals. The Storm came back with a power play marker in the second and a tally in the third. After a scoreless overtime, defenceman Trevor Costello was the hero when he

drop four straight By Murray Green

The Augustana Vikings hockey team lost 5-3 and 3-1 to the Grant MacEwan Griffins on Jan. 16 and 17 to remain winless in 2015. The Vikings scored twice in the opening period in the first game on goals from Connor McLaughlin and Mathew Foster. Five straight MacEwan goals changed the momentum. Devon Hobbs added the third Augustana goal late in the contest. Goalie Andy Williams made 28 of 32 saves and Chase Martin came in to make one of two saves. In the rematch, the Griffins netted the first two tallies before Corey Kosloski replied for Augustana in the close checking game. MacEwan scored late in the third to grab the two points. Martin turned away 24 of the 27 shots he faced. Volleyball

The men’s squad tamed the Grande Prairie Wolves in two straight matches to regain first place in the Alberta Colleges Athletic Conference Jan. 16 and 17. Augustana swept the series 3-1 and 3-0 with scores of 21-25, 25-21, 25-21 and 25-13 in the first outing and 25-21, 25-20 and 26-24 in the rematch. Luke Ryan had 17 kills and eight digs in the opening match and Andrew Kaliel had 10 kills and four digs in the second outing. The reverse was true for the women’s team. The Vikings lost 3-0 and 3-1. Keri Alcorn led with eight kills and eight digs in the first meeting and added eight kills and nine digs in the next match. Keyano Huskies will provide the home opposition on Jan. 30 and 31 with women’s action beginning at 6 p.m. and the men’s contest serving at 8 p.m. on Friday night. Game times are at 1 and 3 p.m. on Saturday. Basketball

Augustana hosted Grande Prairie and the home team won both on the women’s side. The men split the two game series. The 9-5 lady Vikings won 64-44 in a low scoring contest and 72-45 when the team opened up the offence. In the first game, Lyndal Tollefson led the squad with 12 points. Anna Montgomery netted 12 points to lead the scoring in the rematch. All 12 players on the roster scored to contribute on offence. On the men’s side, Grande Prairie won 82-72 the first night and the Vikings also added more offence in winning 97-84. Cameron Vilcsak scored 16 points to lead the Vikings in the first game and Josh Nicol collected 20 points to lead the Vikings in the win.

Armena finalist in UFA contest By Dan Jensen

The Armena Athletic Association is hoping fourth time is the charm. The association has joined the Bezanson Agricultural Society, Cassils Community Centre Building Committee, Liberty Hall Society and the Worsley Hamlet Improvement Committee as third round finalists for a $50,000 prize in the UFA Get ‘n’ Give contest. “I haven’t looked at the entries for the other finalists, but I am really hoping that the fourth time is the one that does it,” said Armena Athletic Association treasurer Michael Wetsch. “We will find out on Jan. 27 (today) whether or not we have been successful.” The Armena Athletic Association was a finalist for the $50,000 prize on three different occasions after having its entry chosen by the UFA board of directors and senior leadership team. In each instance, the prize was awarded by the winner of the previous round to another community or organization. “The projects that

received the money were all valid projects but they were in communities that were much larger than ours,” said Wetsch. The money would go a long way towards giving the association all of the money it needs to complete a 1,100 to 1,200 square foot addition to the community’s skating shack. The community has been raising money for the shed for the last eight years, with the main event being a roast beef supper every November. “We have raised about $100,000 so far, so the $50,000 prize would put us within reach of the $160,000 that we need to get going,” said Wetsch. The new “shack” will include indoor plumbing and heating, additional storage area, a full change area and a kitchen concession. “The biggest difference for us will be the running water, something that most people now take for granted,” said Wetsch. “To have an indoor washroom and hot water would be ideal and

help to move us into the 21st century.” The Armena Athletic Association entry includes a short video put together by Hans Olson which shows the condition of the existing facility and the need for a new one, and includes a song written by Anna and Bill Harder. The video may be viewed on the UFA Get ‘n’ Give website or on You Tube by typing Armena Shack in the search bar. “The goals of both the video and the song are to show that the skating shed is more than a building, that it is a gathering place for people in the community and beyond,” said Wetsch. “The facility that we have now is constantly being used by people from Camrose, Kingman and even the Holden Colony.” Armena Athletic Association’s original contest application noted that there are people skating on the rink almost every night. “Up to now,” it said, “people have used their own equipment to clear the ice. The kitchen (in the skating

to the world!

shed) would be used for skating parties and winter activities. In the summer it would be used as a concession, for ball, soccer and community picnics. Hired help, as well as volunteers, will construct the addition. The skating shack acts as a meeting place for young and old. The skating shack brings people together and keeps our community strong with the relationships that are developed there. The UFA contest would make our dream real.” The UFA Get ‘n’ Give contest is open to any group that resides within 200 km of a UFA location in Alberta, Saskatchewan and British Columbia, and has a project that will support or enrich its rural community and have a lasting impact. Application forms are available at

all UFA Farm and Ranch Supply Stores and petroleum agencies. Projects that are not eligible are for-profit events, day care facilities, medical causes, religious or political projects or company events. “We’re looking for projects that have long-term benefits for the whole community – anything from a new piece of emergency equipment to the foundation for a new riding arena to a new roof for a local community centre,” says the UFA Get ‘n’ Give website. “And because it’s about communities helping communities, each recipient of a $50,000 award chooses the next recipient in the ultimate rural act of kindness. It’s the gift of community spirit that keeps on giving!”
