On Saturday, May 9th, starting at 10 a.m. walkers and runners, serious and casual alike, led by head cheerleader mascot Ole Uffda, will leave Stoney Creek Centre in a quest to achieve their personal fitness goals in the City’s best-known fun race. This year’s 3 km run is staged over a very flat course. The 8 km run, on the other hand, is rated more difficult, not only because of the extra distance, but also due to a challenging hill situated approximately at the mid-way point of the scenic valley. Kids will also find satisfaction with this year’s opportunity – they will have a chance to do their best over 1 km. Spectators are welcome. Viewing from the comfort of Stoney Creek Centre will be excellent regardless of the weather. For more information refer to www.camroserunning.ca

What clients are saying about Trevor… I
sn’t it funny how things work out for the best, especially when it seems like it could never work out? When Curtis and Sheila Smith were negotiating to buy a bare lot near Dried Meat Lake, they ran into snags and the deal fell through. They were disappointed. Then, while boating on the lake, they noticed another property for sale by owner, this time with a home overlooking the water. Perfect! One door closes and a window opens. “Let’s phone Trevor,” they both thought. They trusted him to give them good advice about selling their home on Elliot Drive and buying the property on the lake. He helped them deal with the owners of the lake property, helped them negotiate a long-term possession date, found information for them about the lake house and sold their Elliot Drive house through an open house. He worked for them, kept in communication, was prompt, friendly and efficient. All the things you would want in a realtor. “We highly recommend using a realtor,” says Sheila. “Especially one as good as Trevor. He really helped by doing extra things for us. Anything we would ask, he would find the answer.” “Thanks Trevor!”

Council approves new recreational access policy By Dan Jensen
It’s going to be easier for low income residents of Camrose and Camrose County to use Camrose recreational facilities. Camrose City council has given approval to a new recreational access policy that will reduce the cost of admission to recreational facilities and programs by 75 per cent for children and 50 per cent for adults who are from families with incomes that fall below the Low Income Cut-Offs (LICO) plus 25 per cent amounts before tax.
Eligible individuals will receive 24 drop-in admissions for drop-in leisure activities and facilities and three program admissions during the course of the year. Fee reductions may not apply where the activity is already significantly subsidized. The discounts will not be available to individuals who are currently enrolled in post secondary educational institutions or those that are between semesters or terms of a multi year program based at the post secondary institution.
Increasing facility and program costs and other costs associated with participating in recreational activities have been identified as barriers to participation in a growing percentage of Alberta families. “We did have some shortcomings with our old policy, which was put in place in 2004,” said Camrose Community Services general manager Paul Nielsen in a presentation to council April 6. “We were falling a little behind, particularly on the income thresholds,
which we are adjusting in this new policy to make it a more widespread and usable program for those that need to access it. “It increases the number of uses of the facilities and programs by the people who subscribe to it.” The new policy/ fee reduction program, including the issuance of recreational facility access program cards, will be administered on the city’s behalf by Camrose and District Support Services. “It won’t be very onerous on us to pick this up,” said CDSS executive
director Margaret Holliston. “We think this is a better way for us to serve our community because when we are talking to low income people we can share other information. Ideally, more people will use this access subsidy, in which case you may see more people (at the facilities).” Holliston cautioned that the CDSS will have to keep a close eye on how much time goes into administration if the number of people coming its way doubles or triples.
New project aims to provide support to seniors By Dan Jensen
The Camrose Seniors Coalition, with assistance from Camrose and District Support Services, has launched a new iTeam project that it hopes will enhance the capacity of seniors to identify and express their needs, interests and concerns regarding supportive living and experiences as they “age in place.” The coalition will be working with experienced human services facilitator Mary Wilton over the next 10 months to develop and implement an advocate mentor training for seniors and their local families, research write and produce a pilot of a Camrose and Area Planning Guide to Aging in Place Options for Seniors and their families, and help organize and facilitate a central Alberta network gathering of community-based Elders in Care advocates. The iTeam Project idea came from a desire by the coalition to provide an opportunity for seniors and their families to share their stories and experiences and support each other as they navigate through the system. “A lot of information is out there, but we haven’t had the capacity to assign the responsibility to one person to bring it all together or to meet with seniors and have some of those focused conversations,” said CDSS director Margaret Holliston. Wilton met with the coalition for the first time on April 15 to outline an initial plan of attack that, in addition to research, will include contacting key stakeholders to assist with establishing guidelines for the (fall) deliverables. “We are going to be connecting with people in the community immediately,” said Camrose Seniors Coalition and Elders in Care member June Osborne. “People who have expressed an interest in being involved
Camrose Seniors’ Coalition member June Osborne, iTeam project facilitator Mary Wilton, Camrose and District Support Services director Margaret Holliston and Camrose Seniors’ Coalition member Rev. Alan Richards are excited about the work that is being done to enhance the capacity of seniors to identify and express their needs, interests and concerns.
with this project already. Some of them are people who have been directly involved in the health care system as seniors or their family members and others are people who have worked in health care in some way.” The Camrose Seniors Coalition has been working hard over the last two years to bring people together who have some interest in the area of elders in care and to hear the needs. “One of the things we heard from the very first event, which was two years ago in March, was that people really needed more information about, first of all, what kind of services are out there,” said Osborne. “They told us they need to know how the assessment is done (to get into facilities), where the facilities are and whether they are public or private, what the costs are, and what they have to pay out of their own pocket.”
Osborne noted that the mentorship the coalition wants to provide will ease some of the burdens of seniors and their families who are new to the system or who are already in the system. “It can be a very lonely business,” she said. “I have been there myself, when my mother was in the system. Sometimes you feel you are all alone, and that is very difficult. The Planning Guide to Aging will provide clear definitions about Aging in Place, as well information about costs, about living in public or private facilities, the proper time to be looking at seeking more care, and the different levels of care. “We are hoping to have some very concrete resources to provide people with to help them with the issues of health care for our elders, which is only going to be more as the baby boomer generation begins to age,” said Osborne. The coalition is plan-
ning to share the findings and results of the iTeam project with other organizations who are advocating for the care of the elderly. “We will definitely be bringing people together who do this kind of work,” said Osborne. “One of the things that I have noticed, and I have been involved personally and also with the Seniors Coalition for several years now, is that there are a lot of people in this province who are doing really good work and yet there is still so much work left to be done. I think those of us who have a passion for this, who are involved, need to get together and find ways that we can coordinate and maybe be more effective in making long term changes. Maybe even influencing changes at the policy level, which actually, bottom line, a lot of the difficulties are issues that are related to government policy.” Wilton noted that while the coalition is unique in the way it wants to target
the issues, there are other places across Canada that are looking at peer mentors, advocates and a guide of services. “One of the things that we are really wanting to do is not reinvent the wheel, but to reach out. Part of my early work will be to do that research and to find out what else is out there, where we can tap into other people’s experiences and bringing the best of what is happening in other places to Camrose,” she said. Camrose Seniors Coalition member Alan Richards, a minister at the United Church said while churches and ministers are able to share a lot of information with seniors and do advocacy on their behalf, not all seniors have a church connection. “What we need with the churches is to be involved in partnership with the community who have (greater) access to information and services,” he said.

REFLECTIONS by Bonnie Hutchinson Leading from the inside
Last weekend I attended a 20th Anniversary Reunion with friends I graduated with in 1995. In 1993, we started as a group of 40. In 1995, 37 of us walked across the convocation stage for a Master’s degree in Organization Systems Renewal. By the end of our two years, we had become a learning community. Some of us have regular contact and I also appreciated re-connecting with people I treasure but haven’t seen since our tenth anniversary
reunion. I’ve been thinking about “leadership” these days. At the reunion, I remembered how my perceptions of leadership were seriously jolted during the Master’s degree program. Leadership is not... One intensive weekend, our guest lecturers were from the Kennedy School of Leadership at Harvard. They turned my ideas about leadership upside down. “Leadership is not about power; leadership is not about status; leadership is not about money; leadership is not about charisma; though all those things might be useful,” the speaker began. I could feel my brain start to form question marks. “Leadership is about getting the work done.” Pause here to let that sink in. “And the work is – helping people meet their developmental challenge.” Whaaat? So what’s a developmental challenge? A developmental challenge is something you need to master – and everything you know so far doesn’t equip you to master the challenge. Child example. In small children, examples are easy to see. Watching a little one master the skill of walking is a great example of a developmental challenge. The thing is, activities that help you crawl – strong forearms, for instance – don’t help you walk. And then there’s this whole balancing on two feet instead of all fours. Nothing about crawling helps you learn to balance on two feet. That’s a good example of a developmental challenge – when, in order to grow to your next level of development, everything you know so far doesn’t get you there! Adult examples. Learning to walk is a physical example. As adults, we may still have physical challenges (golf comes to mind!) but our greater challenges are often social, emotional, mental or spiritual. For example, many of us have had the experience of knowing how to be a good parent – right up until we had children! Then it got more challenging, in ways we could not have predicted. As near as I can tell so far, every decade has its unique developmental challenge. To use a personal example, over many decades I learned how to make things happen and move things forward. Those were useful skills. But now I’m encountering situations where all my finely-honed skills of clarifying, organizing, explaining and teaching are not only not useful, they actually get in the way of what needs to happen! Everything I’m good at is not helpful. Besides the blow to my ego, mastering the art of letting go, of allowing instead of striving – those might sound like they should be easy but they are not. However, they are easy compared to being at peace with acknowledging I am incorrect! That goes against the grain of what I have valued for decades. I have to overcome or work around my own brain pathways. It’s definitely a developmental challenge. Lucky thing I already learned to walk! And why does that matter? Circumstances, opportunities and our own thoughts, emotions and actions keep creating challenges we didn’t have before. In order to keep going in our lives, we will be well-served if we can master those challenges. That’s just the tip of the iceberg of leading from the inside out, of mastering our own developmental challenges, and even sharing our missteps with fellow travellers as forms of leadership. On a larger scale, as a human species, we’ve created challenges bordering on crises. New kinds of thinking and new kinds of leadership are needed if we are to survive on the planet. That’s a human race developmental challenge! I expect to keep pondering this for the foreseeable future…

I was amazed to hear on the TV news that the Supreme Court was against prayers being spoken before meetings of city councils and other governing bodies. With the cases that come regularly before the courts and judges, I would have thought they would be very aware that our country needs help from a source outside ourselves that is a whole lot smarter than we are. Governing bodies, be they government, cities, towns or counties, need wisdom for the decisions that they must make that affect the lives of the rest of the people that live in this country. There is no other source of wisdom available so where are leaders to go if this source is ruled out of bounds for them? I pray that this ruling will be reversed and that the Supreme Court would, itself, seek this same wisdom for the decisions they need to make. I will no doubt be criticized for this stand but I believe what the bible says in Psalm 33:12: “Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord, the people He chose for His inheritance.” I love
Canada, my country, and I want God to choose us for His inheritance. Grace Kells Camrose Camrose streets
One word describes most of the streets in Camrose: atrocious. Not much left but patches and most of those are bumps. How difficult is it to fill a pothole and have it reasonably level with the existing asphalt? Another thing: when new asphalt is placed should it not be in the contract that man hole covers be raised to the proper height? Walmart – why are people parking in the restricted fire lanes? Sitting behind the wheel doesn’t make it legal. Not enough parking space in a couple of acres? Too bloody lazy to walk? Maybe Mayor Mayer should find out why the bylaw officer isn’t doing his job, or whoever should be doing this. If not, take the signs down and let everyone have a go. Concerning the handicapped parking spaces, it is time someone checked the validity of these permits. Ninety-nine per cent of people using them look okay to me. Does the permit belong to grandma and the whole family gets to use it? It must be nice to have your own private parking spot wherever you go, right? P. Kelly, Spruce Grove The system is broken
As I talk with people about government and this upcoming election, it doesn’t take long to realize that this political system
is broken and it cannot be fixed. People are tired of the promises to reset this political thing, which always ends up in utter disappointment, making the people realize the politicians are in this thing, only for the money. The last budget was nothing but a tax grab on the poor, while leaving corporations untouched. I’m very concerned about our young people, being that more and more are being laid off with no hope of finding jobs. Don’t blame the price of oil for this either, you have to point to mismanagement on the part of the government from a long way back. A good example of this is pensions: there are probably more people being paid after retirement than there are that work. This becomes dead money. The young have to work to pay the old. Health care is the same: it’s a dead horse that they keep on flogging. The bottom line is, this thing has come to an end. It just won’t work anymore. But here is a light at the end of the tunnel: we are moving ahead with a New Republic under Common or Natural law. It’s called the Republic of Kanata, and we are moving ahead with this in May. We will be holding informational meetings in most places in Alberta. Everyone has a say, everyone is sovereign, everyone is invited. Sitting on your hands and watching your government destroy us is not acceptable. If you would like to have info, be free to call me, Lloyd Albers, at 780608-7511 or 780-877-2631 and let’s talk. You won’t be sorry, thanks for reading. Lloyd Albers, Camrose

New app makes post secondary planning easier Students now have a new tool available to help plan post-secondary education and avoid problems transferring between institutions. The new Transfer Alberta Mobile App makes it easier for students to get current and accurate information about courses or programs that can transfer for credit between participating Alberta post-secondary institutions, as well as high school upgrading and out-of-province course equivalencies. Having readily available information on what courses and programs can transfer or course equivalencies exist, will help students better plan their postsecondary enrolment, saving them time, money and frustration. This information has been available previously on the Transfer Alberta website, but the goal of the new app is to make it easier and more convenient. The Alberta transfer system includes approximately 33,000 active transfer agreements between 39 Alberta transfer system institutions, including all publicly-funded institutions, First Nations colleges, and various private-not-for profit and out-of-province institutions. The new app was developed in partnership with Innovation and Advanced Education and The Alberta Council on Admissions and Transfer. The Council oversees and provides advice regarding student pathways and the admissions and transfer system. It supports post-secondary institutions that lead the development of transfer agreements for identified courses and programs. These agreements support the movement of thousands of students each year through Campus Alberta and beyond. The Transfer Alberta Mobile App is available from the Transfer Alberta website, Alberta mobile application page, Apple and Google Play stores for both iOS and Android operating systems.
Camrose celebrating the important role played by our volunteer firefighters
Murray Green, Camrose Booster
Camrose Fire Department fire chief Peter Krich encourages citizens to participate in the Volunteer Firefighter Week activities and Answer The Call to assist the department within the community. By Murray Green
The Camrose Fire Department, along with fire fighters from across the province, will be celebrating Volunteer Firefighter Week from May 3 to 9. With the theme Answer The Call 2015, fire departments will be holding several activities during the week targeted at raising the profile of volunteer firefighters in the community and encouraging others to join the ranks. “ The idea started with the Alberta Fire Chiefs Association and the committee I chair is the recruitment and retention of volunteer firefighters. Along with the campaign we came up with logos, images and information to symbolize who f iref ighters were within the community,” said fire chief Peter Krich. “We already had Fire Prevention Week in the fall, so we wanted to have it in the spring and concentrate on the recruitment and retention of firefighters.” The first week in May was picked because it connects with May 4, which is International Fire Fighters’ Day. “We wanted to create an awareness within communities with activities and give some understanding of who the volunteers are in the community,” said Krich. A nswer The Call begins with the department’s annual spring pancake breakfast on
Sunday, May 3 at the hall. Firefighters cook pancakes, eggs and sausages from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. There is no charge for those seven and under. ‘This year we are expanding to opening our doors throughout the week. On Monday, May 4, we are holding a ‘Sound Off ’ memorial. A sound off is when all of the sirens on the fire engines will go off at noon in honour of fallen f iref ighters. It is followed by a small f iref ighter memorial recognizing those who lost their life not just locally, but nationally and internationally,” explained Krich. Locally, people are asked to gather at the fire hall at 11:30 a.m. The trucks will be lined up outside of the hall for the sound off. Sirens will go for 30 seconds and then a memorial will follow. “We have a tribute for all lost firefighters, but locally, we will honour captain Joel Cassidy and lieutenant Dan Zietarsky, who passed away recently,” said Krich. On Tuesday, May 5, an open house will be held at the hall in conjunction of the regular practice night from 7 to 9 p.m. “ We have three crews, so each one will have a station set up to demonstrate some of the things we do on a regular basis when we fight fires. The public will be able participate
in some of the events. They might be able to spray a water hose, cut some metal with the jaws of life, or see what it is like in a smoke filled tower where we have to rescue someone. We encourage everyone to see our firefighters in action,” said Krich. “We want people to try some of the things we do, get excited about it and then join our team as firefighters.” On Wednesday and Thursday the firefighters will hold private events. Then on Friday, May 8, a free fire extinguisher training session will be held from 10 a.m. to noon and then again from 2 to 4 p.m. “ We enc ou r a g e everyone to learn how to use a fire extinguisher. Most homes and businesses have then, but people are afraid, or don’t know how to use them. This is your opportunity to learn,” added K rich. “People can come by at anytime during the time frame and learn how to use them. It is not a twohour classroom setting. It only takes a few minutes to show people how to use it. Fire extinguishers are still our first line of defence and everyone should know how to use them. This is something we want to do to give back to the community.” The fire department has served and protected the residents of the City Camrose for more than 100 years. Volunteers donate
their time and dedication to emergencies and increasing knowledge of fire safety within our community. The Camrose Fire D epa r tment pr ides itself on being a team oriented organization that works diligently towards fire prevention, protection of life and property, and the mitigation of all emergency incidents. “I f irmly believe that our greatest asset in maintaining and improving the Camrose Fire Department’s level of service is our team of hard working firefighters,” said the chief. “We are a volunteer service and our team is dedicated to the delivery of quality fire prevention, education, rescue and suppression services.” The department is a diverse service that values its past, embraces the present and looks towards the challenges of the future. “We are committed to providing the residents of Camrose, both City and County, with the best service possible,” said Krich. There are three operational fire crews which are dispatched out on a rotational basis for emergency calls, except when there is a structure fire where all crews are dispatched to respond. Fire training to f iref ighters include weekly in-house training and certified training through Fire ETC - Lakeland College.

Project provide seniors support Continued from page 4
Osborne said it is a high priority for the coalition to have as many people as possible involved in the discussions that will be happening. “We want to invite everybody to the table, whether that is people who are actually receiving service, families, service providers, or people who are involved at the government level. We see working together as being the most powerful way of dealing with these very difficult issues. That has been our philosophy and that is what we have done in ever event that we have held.” Wilton has years of experience work-
ing with AADAC and Alberta Health Services. “I have worked in human services in Camrose now for 28 years, so it is helpful to me because some of the people I will be contacting are people I have connected with in the past,” she said. “I am excited about helping developing something that will make this community stronger.” The iTeam project is being funded by a grant from New Horizons for Seniors, a federal program that supports projects led or inspired by seniors who make a difference in the lives of others and in their communities.

Special Olympics Camrose had 30 athletes participating regularly in the fitness, walking and running indoor program from Oct. 6 to March 30. The Camrose athletes travelled more than 1,400 kilometres through southern Alberta, logging their distance on a map as they started walking and running from Camrose to Wainwright, Oyen, Medicine Hat, Lethbridge, Calgary, Saskatchewan Crossing, Rocky Mountain House, Wetaskiwin and back to Camrose. “On Mondays athletes came together at the Camrose Community Centre track to exercise while having fun walking and running around the track,” said chair Carol Wideman. The group will head north when the indoor walking and running resumes in this fall. “During May and June Special Olympics Camrose will meet at the Stoney Creek Centre to walk and run around the outdoor walking path around the ski hill,” said Carol.

Morning Melodies shine with Hagen By Murray Green
Host pianist Sarah Hagen invites guest musicians to share the stage with her, bringing their worldclass artistry to Camrose. The musicians, all known for their perceptive, eloquent and entertaining commentary, will take time to offer personal insights into the music. The next show is on Tuesday, May 12, beginning at 10:30 a.m. Tenor Benjamin Butterfield from Victoria will join the morning crew at the Jeanne and Peter Lougheed Performing Arts Centre. Morning Melodies is a series of classical music concerts taking place on select Tuesday mornings. Patrons are warmly invited to meet in the Mayer Family Community Hall for tea, coffee
and conversation before the performance recital. Butterfield was born in Halifax, Nova Scotia, and raised in Victoria B.C. He began singing at school and in the choir of Christ Church Cathedral in Victoria. Performing in local festivals and variety shows, he pursued formal voice studies with Selena James at the Victoria Conservatory of Music while attending the University of Victoria in general arts. He furthered his studies at the Banff Centre for the Performing Arts in the Music Theater Studio Ensemble before accepting an entrance scholarship to McGill University studying under Jocelyn Fleury-Coutu and William Neil. Prior to his appointment to the music department at the University of Victoria, But-
terfield was on the voice faculty at York University in Toronto. Recently Mr. Butterfield toured with the Montreal based Theater of Early Music to Winnipeg, Ottawa, Seattle and Montreal, performed with Continuum as well as the Aldeburgh Connection in Toronto, sang the Evangelist in Bach’s St. John Passion with the Victoria Baroque Players under Timothy Vernon and performed works by Handel and Mozart in New York City at Carnegie Hall and Lincoln Center. Butterfield can be heard regularly on CBC Radio and has been featured on “This is my Music.” His more than 40 recordings are available on CBC Records, Koch International, Dorion, Marquis, Timpani, Analekta and Musica Leopolis.

SONGS FOR A NEW WORLD
Starring: Brian Dumont, GaRRy Williams Kimberly Denis, Cathie (Berg) Johnson Songs for a New World is, according to composer Jason Robert Brown, “about one moment. It’s about hitting the wall and having to make a choice, or take a stand, or turn around and go back.â€? With a rousing score that blends elements of pop, gospel and jazz, featuring tight harmonies and darling vocals, Songs for a New World transports its audience from the deck of a spanish sailing ship bound for a new land, to the ledge of a New York penthouse. Characters range from a young man in the Bronx who dreams of becoming a famous basketball player, to a forlorn and neglected Mrs. Claus lamenting as Christmas approaches. A small but powerful diverse cast and a supercharged, well crafted score appeal to old and new generations alike as each character -- in their own way -- takes hold of that one moment and enters a new world.

Q.
Why choose carpet?
A.
The benefits of carpet are wallto-wall. Your carpet is the canvas on which to show off the rest of your home’s design elements. Walls, window treatments, furniture, even artwork can pull visual cues from your carpet. And with today’s stain- and wear-resistant carpets, you can enjoy them for years. Carpet is strong. Carpet stands up to foot traffic and resists life’s spills like never before. So, there’s no reason to put off buying new carpet because you have small children or pets. The carpet you buy today is going to keep you smiling in the future. Carpet is soft. Carpet manufacturers have your lifestyle in mind, which is why they’re developing the softest, most foot-friendly carpets ever. Advances in fiber, weave and backing technologies have resulted in carpet that brings durability and refinement to any room.

Q.
What is the best type of blind to reduce heat loss in the winter months?
A:
Cellular shades are the most energy effi e cient type of shade. The attractive honeycomb design creates pockets of air h that insulate windows from heat and cold t to t lower energy bills year round. Cellular shades also offer great sound absorption to quiet rooms with hard flooring or vaulted ceilings. They come in a wide variety of colors and opacity levels for personalized privacy and light control. Fabrics come in widths up to 144” and can also be made in a convenient side opening design for wider windows or patio doors. They are a great choice for room dividers and closet doors as well. Cordless cellular shades also provide safety solutions for homes with children or pets. The popular top down bottom up or “café style”option allows cellular shades to provide exterior view and natural light while still maintaining privacy. They can also be made in specialty shapes like arches, octagons, hexagons and triangle shaped windows. Loss of heat through skylights can be tremendous in the winter, and cellular shades will be insulating while still allowing natural light to come in. A perfect finishing touch for your cell shade is an elegant cornice. They come in a variety of wood finishes or upholstery fabrics to complement any decor. At Wideman Paint & Décor, we’ll be happy to walk you through the process of finding the right blinds for you. Drop in and see us today! Answer provided by:

Q. A:
What are some common soccer injuries, and how can they be prevented?
Spring brings the start of soccer season. Some of the most common injuries in soccer players are knee and ankle ligament sprains, and muscle strains. High-speed lateral cutting movements, quick deceleration, sprinting and kicking can cause these soccerspecific injuries. These types of injuries can be prevented with a comprehensive warm-up, which should have components of agility, strength, power, and balance in a soccer specific setting. Research has shown that this effectively reduces the risk and severity of lower body injuries, when incorporated into the team warm-up. A soccer specific program, called the F-MARC 11+ was developed by the FIFA Medical Assessment and Research Centre. It is meant to be performed at the start of each training session, should last about 20 minutes and includes: • Slow speed running, dynamic stretching, controlled partner contact • Core and leg strength, balance and agility • High speed running with planting and cutting movements Access program details at: http://f-marc.com/11plus/home/ Contact your physiotherapist with any further questions on the 11+ program, or injury prevention.

Seniors’ Chat Hello Seniors’ Chat readers, my name is Chris Coombs and I have been asked to write an article for Seniors’ Chat. I wanted to write briefly about some of my experiences as a young person, working at the Service Options for Seniors (SOS) program office. I was hired on to help cover while the executive assistant took her maternity leave. In addition to secretarial type tasks, I provide assistance to persons using the Alberta Special Needs Assistance Program by filling out the claim forms, as well as providing information on what the Special Needs Program covers. I am also currently training to be able to provide better assistance to people with questions regarding Old Age Security, Canada Pension and Guaranteed Income Supplements. One of the challenges I have come to face whilst working with the SOS program is when it comes to being able to communicate with the elderly, there is an apparent generation gap. I have come to realize how quickly people around my age (under 30) communicate what they need to communicate with as few words and as minimal preamble or backstory as possible. The elderly mainly take
the opposite approach to this. As a person more used to his generation’s shorthanded methods of communication, where any information I may find useful is typically laid out for me, I sometimes find this testing, as I have to try and detect small clues within a conversation in order to attain the information I may need in order to effectively assist an elderly client. My personal frustrations from this aside, I have come to appreciate this more long handed way, especially with persons with various degrees of failing memories, as I have noticed that it does help a person with failing memory to relate several little instances in their day leading up to them coming to visit our office to help remind themselves why they came to visit us in the first place. Working here I have also come to realize that I take my ability to hear as well as my mobility somewhat for granted. Interacting with persons with hearing problems, mobility issues and memory loss has given me empathy that these are issues I could face when I grow to be their age. I have been asked, on a couple of occasions, by people within our orga-
nization, what have our senior clients taught me? To which, I would have to answer: patience and, more importantly, I think, understanding. I have learned through these people that, just because it isn’t a problem I am facing does not mean that it is not a problem for someone else. I have also come to realize that in some instances a person’s own pride can act as a barrier. They initially view the government services we help them to access, for want of a better term, as a “handout,” rather than a privilege they have, in fact, worked their whole lives to earn. The Service Options for Senior’s Program (SOS) is a not for profit organization whose mission is to assist seniors and their support networks in gaining access to needed programs, services and supports so seniors can sustain their independence. We provide assistance with several federal, as well as provincial programs. If there is something we can provide assistance to you with, visit our office at: #102 4909A-48 Street, Camrose. Our office hours are: Monday to Thursday 8:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. Or, feel free to give us a call at: 780672-4131.

On the Other Hand… Proceeding on my journey
Third try. I can proceed to now pack my wife-approved wardrobe. (Not bad, got, it on the third try.) So now I proceed to the airport. I am at check-in two hours early as required (of course one of those hours is just to wait in the check-in lineup). My turn, and now comes the twenty questions. “Did you pack your own bag.” My answer, “Pack it yes, choose it, no.” More Q and A until at last I receive the prized boarding pass. “Please proceed to security.” I open my carry on and place it on the conveyor. I remove as much clothing as I can without being arrested. My suspicious insulin kit often draws attention at the x-ray scanner. And somehow, a microscopic piece of metal is stuck in the lint in my pants pocket. After I am wand searched and cleared, I put my clothes back on and collect my carry-on luggage. “Please proceed to immigration.” I present my passport and my boarding pass. I answer: Where do you live? Where are you going? What will you do there? Taking any gifts? Carrying more than $10,000 in cash? ( I just laugh.) How long will you stay? After a checklist of such questions is asked and answered to the satisfaction of the officer, I am told… “Proceed to the boarding gate.” After a “brief” wait, I watch as the elite, first class and other seemingly privileged passengers board. Finally my row is called. (Any further back and I would walk through the aircraft and be on the tarmac.) Again I am greeted by an agent who looks at me and then at my photo ID. A second gate agent verifies my boarding pass and enters into the computer that fact that I actually did board, and sends me on my way. “Please proceed down the ramp.” I am greeted now by a flight attendant who looks at my boarding pass to ensure that I am on the correct flight. I wait for all of the other passengers who boarded earlier to stow their carry on luggage, and I see my seat, about the length of a football field away. Finally I am seated. “May we have your attention for the following safety demonstration? ” It is not really a question - more of a polite order. By the time the plane ta xied for takeof f and I am ordered to “buckle my seat belt,” it seems I have had the proceedings of my life ordered by others for hours. I become a frustrated traveller. ( Never mind I should be happy just to be able to travel.) In honest reflection, all of these people who sought to order the proceedings of my life had my best interest in mind. Sometimes in my journey of life, it seems there is alway s s o m e o n e w h o w o u l d o r d e r h o w I s h o u l d p r o c e e d . A n d , to b e h o n e s t, s o m e t i m e s I b e c o m e a f r u s t r a te d l i f e t r a v e l l e r. I d o n o t a l w a y s a p p r e c i a te t h e i r ef for ts any more than I do those of the a i r p o r t, s e c u r i t y a n d a i r l i n e p e r s o n n e l . I can (and all too often do) view these attempts at bringing order to my life as an inconvenient nuisance. On the other hand, perhaps if I listen to those who have my best interest in mind, my life journey can only proceed in a much better way.
Enrollment going up, dollars down Diane Hutchinson, Communications, BRSD
Even with more than 100 new students expected to enter Battle River schools in September, the Division will have less dollars available for schools. Like all school divisions in the province, BRSD has been hit with a 2.7 per cent overall decrease in funding for next year. In addition, the Alberta government has said it will not provide dollars to cover growth in student enrollment. That means that, even though BRSD has reversed a five year enrollment decline trend and is welcoming a growing number of students, there will be no dollars provided to serve them. “It’s ironic, isn’t it?” said board chair Kendall Severson. “When our numbers were going down, our budget went down too. We tightened our belts, made adjustments in staffing and services and waited for the number of young students to start going up. Now that we’re experiencing growth, we’re being asked to tighten our belts and make adjustments in staffing and services again.” Virtually every category of spending will be reduced, including cuts of nearly $750,000 in services such as the base grant for non-
teacher services; inclusive education; per unit funding for early learners; English as a Second Language programming; outreach education, Small Schools by Necessity funding; colony schools; transportation and plant operations and maintenance. Plus, the growth in student numbers should have generated an additional $981,000 that won’t be arriving. Overall, that leaves the jurisdiction struggling to find more than $1.7 million. School divisions have been discouraged from using dollars they have in reserve to offset these cuts, being told that boards need to make change in order to adjust to a new funding reality. The Minister of Education has cautioned school divisions that this “flat funding profile” could be in place for the next three to five years. He has stated that boards must receive his permission before accessing reserve dollars. Severson acknowledges that tapping in to reserves is not a long-term solution. But, he says, “occasions like this are the reason reserves were created. BRSD has a policy that every school and department must hold two to per cent per cent of its budget in reserve. Those funds are
intended to help offset unexpected expenses.” “As an elected board we feel strongly that our role is to ensure the fiscal stability of the school division,” he adds. “Having a contingency fund is part of responsible management. We believe the decision of whether or not to access those reserves is ours.” The BRSD board of trustees agreed to take $290,000 from reserve funds in order to support schools which are expected to have a higher number of students. An additional $60,000 will be allocated to support the division’s two smallest schools, for whom even minor changes in funding can have a major impact. The rest of the shortfall will be covered through reductions in spending. “Every single school and department will be affected,” says Superintendent of Schools Rita Marler. “We are trying to reduce “things” instead of people, but every reduction we make has the potential to impact our level of service to students.” Additional details about the specific reductions that are being made will be released as they are finalized in the weeks ahead. Watch the BRSD website for updates.
BRCF assists Silent Sponsor Program
Battle River Community Foundation treasurer Imogene Walsh presents a cheque for $1,000 to City of Camrose facility operational supervisor/scheduler Jim Cook.
The Battle River Community Foundation has granted $1,000 to the City of Camrose to support the Silent Sponsor Program. The grant is awarded from income earned by the Laird Family Fund established in 2010 to support the Camrose Silent Sponsor Fund. The Silent Sponsor Fund supplements participation cost for children who otherwise be unable to register for sports and
cultural programs in Camrose. The Battle River Community Foundation exists to support initiatives which benefit local communities and have a positive impact on the future. Grants from the Battle River Community Foundation are primarily made possible through the generosity of individual donors and organizations that have created endowment
funds. The principal of these endowment funds is kept intact and the income is made available annually to support local projects and organizations in accordance with the wishes of the donors. Since it was founded in 1995 the Battle River Community Foundation has granted over $2,900,000 to support community programs and projects throughout the region.

Hike for Hospice May 3 By Dan Jensen
Supporting hospice care in the Camrose area this spring will be as easy as collecting a few pledges and going for a walk. The Hospice Society of Camrose and District will be holding its third annual Hike for Hospice beginning from the Stoney Creek Centre (Ski Hill Lodge) at 2 p.m. May 3. “We’re encouraging people to pick up a pledge sheet (go to the Hospice Society of Camrose and District website or contact Wanita at 780-678-6859) and seek donations from people in the workplace, family members or friends,” said hospice board member Pam Cummer. “The money we raise
will help support our efforts in hospice palliative care.” The second annual Hike for Hospice raised approximately $6,000 for an ever growing volunteer program and education sessions. The hike was one of many supported by the Canadian Hospice Palliative Care Association in centres across Canada as a way of creating community awareness of palliative care. The hike is always held the first Sunday of May to mark the beginning of Hospice Palliative Care Week. The hikers will be welcomed by members of the Hospice Society of Camrose and District before they set out to explore the beautiful Camrose trail system. “It is not a difficult
hike,” said Cummer. “We have had people of all ages participate.” The afternoon will conclude with a barbecue, a time for socialization and entertainment. The Hospice Society of Camrose and District has a 12-member board of directors which meets at noon the last Wednesday of each month in the Rosehaven board room. The board held a development workshop this past winter at which it set long and short term goals. “We will be sharing what we have decided at our annual general meeting, which will be held within the next couple of months,” said Cummer.

Augustana presents Citation Award to Mygind By Dan Jensen
The Augustana Alumni Association presented its 2015 Citation Award to Gunvor Mygind at the Augustana Community Awards banquet. “She is a role model for all of us,” said Citation Award presenter and Augustana director of development Bonnie Anderson. “When she sets out to accomplish something she usually makes a difference.” Mygind has created several Augustana endowment awards, including the Erik Mygind Memorial Scholarship, and the Gunvor and Erik Mygind Entrance Citation Scholarship, and is planning a gift that will support the Augustana music and athletic programs. “Gunvor’s interest in the Augustana community stems from the belief in the importance of education and knowing that educated young people are our future,” said Anderson. “It is her wish to support and reward hard work.” The Myginds came to Canada from Denmark as newlyweds in 1950. “They married the day before they left Denmark,” said Anderson. “It was an adventure to come to Canada for five years.” The couple created a successful farming operation while Gunvor worked at Rosehaven Care Centre, a job that she said she truly loved.
Augustana dean Dr. Allen Berger and Augustana director of Development Bonnie Andersen, right, present a framed print to Gunvor Mygind, who is this year’s recipient of the Augustana Citation Award. Gunvor’s interest in the Augustana community stems from the believe in the importance of education and the belief that young people are our future.
“She has had a strong ethic throughout her life and believes if you are going to do a job you might as well do it right,” said Anderson. Gunvor was a gymnast in her youth and believes that participating in sports and the arts helps shape a healthy lifestyle, which in turn creates healthy commu-
nities. She is currently active in the Camrose pottery club, and continues to participate in seniors’ floor curling every week. “Gunvor has an inquiring mind and asks tough questions before making decisions,” said Anderson. “For many years, before we met for lunch, I would brush up everything I could
about current projects and events on the go at Augustana, but Gunvor would always ask me a question that I didn’t quite know the entire answer to and on one occasion she knew more about the particular event than I did. It was very humbling. Once the ‘what is new at Augustana’ was discussed and
she made an inquiry or two about the students, our lively conversations always included curling or tennis or trying to solve a national or international issue.” T he Aug usta na Alumni Citation Award is presented to a nonalum who makes a difference on the Augustana campus.
Augustana presents awards for undergraduate research By Dan Jensen
Augustana dean Dr. Allen Berger presented Outstanding Undergraduate Research Awards to Samantha Watters (winter of 2014 recipient) and Spencer Kryzanowski (fall of 2014 recipient) at the Augustana Community Awards Banquet. Matters, who graduated from Augustana with a BSc in Environmental Science, prepared a paper for the April, 2014 Student Academic Conference entitled “An Analysis of the History of Aboriginal Peoples in the Beaver Hills.” “The lack of knowledge of aboriginal history in the Beaver Hills was identified in the application of the Beaver Hills initiative to have that area declared a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve,” said Dr. Berger. Matters was proud to have the opportunity to present her work. “My peers, professors and my parents were all in the room to hear about the work I had been so dedicated to for the past several months,” she said. “This work is incredibly close to my heart and I was filled

with so much excitement to be able to share it.” Matters graduated from Mannville High School in 2010 and is currently working for the Government of Alberta in Aboriginal Relations. “Augustana has given me such a broad view of the world,” said Matters. “I hope to utilize the knowledge I have gained in a number of areas.”
Kryzanowski received his award for the work he did on “Queering the Kiss: Rodney Sharman’s The Garden” in a course taught by Dr. Milton Schlosser on contemporary Canadian piano composition. “His project was particularly unique since it involved both an oral presentation and a piano performance,” said Dr. Berger. “His performance of The
Garden at the Student Academic Conference was its Alberta premiere, and (the presentation) will be published in an upcoming issue of the Council of Public Liberal Arts Colleges’ journal Metamorphisis.” The project allowed Kryzanowski to discuss and explore his interest in gender studies and queer musicology, together with personal perspectives towards homosexual acts of desire, public displays of affection, and contemporary Canadian piano composition, subjects that took him out of his comfort zone. “I feel incredibly privileged and grateful to have presented on and performed the Alberta premiere of Rodney Sharman’s The Garden for such a supportive audience,” said Kryzanowski. “It’s not too often that one has the opportunity to present provocative subject matter and languages in a substantial chapel space.” Kryzanowoski, who came to Augustana from St. Albert, is on schedule to graduate with a Bachelor of Music degree this spring.

received an honourable mention at the April 2014 Student Academic Conference for a paper entitled “Gaining Control: Self Harm to Combat Societal Harm,” which explores how society attempts to control female bodies and how women try and take control back. Stambaugh graduated from Tofield High School and is applying to do a master’s degree in publishing after he finishes her degree in English at Augustana this spring. Brittany Johnson received an honourable mention at the December of 2014 Student Academic Conference for her presentation on Aboriginal Women, Sexuality and the Spiritual. “She drew on a wide body of theoretical work to analyze her primary texts and came up with a fascinating study that will become the foundational work for her master’s thesis in the Faculty of Native Studies,” said Dr. Roxanne Harde. Johnson, who is from Camrose, will be graduating with a major in English this spring.

Hughes giving recital to raise funds for trip By Dan Jensen
Twelve-year Camrose resident Nansee Hughes will be a embarking on a unique musical experience this summer. Hughes, who obtained her Bachelor of Music at the University of Alberta Augustana Campus and her Masters of Music at the University of Alberta Main Campus, will be studying opera and art song at the Centre for Operatic Studies (COSI) in the city of Sulmona, Italy, June 21 to July 20. Hughes will receive instruction in voice, acting, stage movement, pilates and the Italian language (which she will be expected to use in the market twice a week), and attend rehearsals for operas and courtyard concerts. “It is an innovative program for in-career professional singers as well as for student singers who are just discovering many aspects of singing and performing,” said Hughes. Hughes will be performing a recital with Shannon Hiebert at Bethel Lutheran Church on May 2 (2 p.m.) with the intent of raising the funds to cover the cost of her trip and four weeks of living expenses. “The program will consist of a nice selection of Italian pieces, as well as a set of Spanish pieces,” she said. “To end the concert I will be singing a few English favourites from Phantom of the Opera, Mikado and some others.”
Hughes has also attached a small bake sale to the recital and a raffle for a beautifully decorated cake. Hughes has performed the roles of Atalanta in Handel’s Sense, the Dew Fairy in Humperdinck’s Hansel and Gretel with the University of Alberta Opera Workshop, the young lover in Mercury Opera’s production of II Tabarro, as well as in opera scenes with the Vocal Studio at Alberta College Conservatory. In 2014, she was selected as a participant in Music Conference Alberta’s Ben Heppner Masterclass. She has also participated in masterclasses and coachings with Mannheim Opera’s Robin Phillips, Dr. Deen Larsen of the Franz-Schubert-Institut, counter-tenor Daniel Taylor and lyric coloratura soprano Tracy Dahl. She was the soprano soloist in a performance of Pergolosi’s Stabat Mater with the Schola Cantorum Women’s Choir at Alberta College and performances of Messiah with McDougal United Church and Grand Prairie Regional College. Hughes was the recipient of the 2012 Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonry Scholarship for voice and the 2011 Diane Thorssen Award from MacEwan University Alberta College.

2015 Chev Impala Unforgettable driving experience Pete Pastuck
By Dan Jensen
The 2015 Chevrolet Impala at McClellan Wheaton Chevrolet Buick GMC in Camrose delivers an unforgettable driving experience. Impala’s aesthetics and aerodynamics converge for a stunning silhouette, while its craftsmanship puts comfort in a stunning context. Connectivity spreads its wings with standard OnStar 4G LTE with WiFi connectivity built right in. “The Impala doesn’t just stand on its own with the world’s leading premium sedans,” said McClellan Wheaton Chevrolet Buick GMC dealer principal Will McClellan, “it stands out entirely.” Purposeful design With its sweeping roofline and sculpted body contours, Impala finesses the air with its aerodynamic styling while capturing the eye from every angle. In sunlight and under streetlights, bright chrome accents create a ref lective dance that accentuates the graceful exterior lines. Polise meets pavement with a variety of stunning
wheel choices, including available 20-inch aluminum wheels. Premium details Inside Impala, meticulous French stitching and available wood grain trim accentuate the flowing instrument panel, which wraps you in ergonomic comfort. The available eightway power adjustable front seats have lumbar control, while the cavernous 532 litre trunk lets you carry golf clubs and luggage. Umbrellas can be stored in the front door pockets. Laptops or other devices can be plugged into the 120-volt outlet behind the centre console. Technology Some of the most impressive Impala features are the ones you can’t see, including the available Advanced Safety Package with Forward Collision Alert, Side Blind Zone Alert, Rear Cross Traffic Alert and Lane Departure Warning. Forward Collision Alert uses a high resolution camera to scan for vehicles ahead and alerts you of potential crash risks.
Side Blind Zone Alert utilizes radar sensors on both sides of the Impala to identify vehicles in your side mirror blind zones and triggers LED-lit symbols in the corresponding exterior mirrors to signal their presence. Rear Cross Traffic Alert sounds an alert and provides visual cues on the rear vision camera screen. Lane Departure Warning sounds an alert if you unintentionally drift out of your lane without signalling. Full-Speed Range Adaptive Cruise Control uses grille-mounted radar to maintain your selected cruise speed and following gap distance, automatically braking when necessary in stop-and-go traffic. Front Automatic Braking works alongside Adaptive Cruise Control to alert you if the vehicle ahead slows unexpectedly. If you don’t react quickly enough, it automatically applies the brakes to help prevent a front-end collision. Totally connected Available Chevrolet MyLink with Bluetooth wireless technology
makes it easy to connect to calls, music, contacts and more on the go – all by using enhanced voice commands or the 203 mm diagonal colour touchscreen display. OnStar Turn-by-Turn Navigation is standard for six months. Or, go for the available Chevrolet MyLink Radio with Navigation, featuring full GPS navigation, along with a three-month trial of Sirius XM Nav Traffic. Hidden, lockable storage behind the touchscreen allows you to stow valuables safely out of reach. Performance The 195 horsepower 2.5 litre four cylinder engine combines Direct I nje c t ion , Va r i able Valve Timing and new stop /start technology to help save on gas. Stop / start technolog y can automatically shut off the engine when stopped and enables a smooth transition when the brake pedal is released. The 305 horsepower 3.6 V-8 engine moves you from zero to 96 km / h in 6.8 seconds and delivers a highway fuel consumption rating of 8.2 litres per 100
km. Direct Injection improves power and efficiency while lowering emissions. Variable Valve Timing provides near-peak torque over a wider rpm range. P rem iu m electr ic rack-and-pinion steering prov ides cr isp, responsive ha nd l i ng. T he tight st eer i ng radius is enhanced by an available variableef for t feature, which increases power assistance during low-speed manoeuvres. Safety Built-in sensors automatically alert an OnStar advisor in the event of a crash. Even if you don’t respond, an OnStar advisor can use GPS technology to pinpoint your exact location and request emergency help. RemoteLink Key Fob Services give you access to features such as locking and unlocking your doors, even when you are a kilometre away. See the 2015 Chevrolet Impala at McClellan Wheaton Chevrolet Buick GMC at 3850-48 Avenue, Camrose. Phone 780-6722355 and ask for one of the friendly sales professionals.

Axemen prepare for new baseball season
***
EQUIPPED FOR WORK OUT HERE
By Murray Green
The Camrose Axemen men’s baseball team is getting ready to make another run at the North Central Alberta Baseball League crown despite a few line-up changes. Last year, the Axemen placed second in the regular season and reached the league final before dropping the series to the strong defending champion Edmonton Blackhawks. Camrose added pitcherinfielder Dylan Borman to the team after last playing with the Axemen during the 2011 season. He spent the last three seasons with the Red Deer Braves midget triple-A squad. A trio of players will not be returning in 2015 due to other commitments. Steve Enright, Dan Enright and Craig Koughan opted not pick up their player option for 2015 and will be unavailable to the Axemen. The Enright brothers will be suiting up for the Battle River Baseball League’s Rosalind Athletics full time, while Koughan will continue his time with the 2014 Powerline Baseball League champion, Ryley Rebels. Koughan played for the Axemen over two seasons hitting .231 in 13 plate appearances while going 1-0 in five innings with a 2.80 ERA during the 2013 and 2014 seasons. The Axemen open the season against the Sturgeon Paladins in Bon Accord on May 10. Camrose travels to Edmonton to take on the Athletics on May 12. The home opener for the Axemen will be on Wednesday, May 20 against the Edmonton Indians beginning at 7:15 p.m. on Harry Andreassen Field at Kin Park. Camrose then hosts the St. Albert Cardinals on May 27 for a night game. The Axemen close out the month with a doubleheader on May 31 in Barrhead against the Orioles. Other home games for the Axemen are on June 17 and 24, July 8, 14, and a doubleheader on 19. The final home game is slated for Aug. 12. Action for the home doubleheader on Sunday begins at 1:30 p.m.

Songs for a new world at Bailey By Dan Jensen
Camrose music fans can expect to be thoroughly entertained when Best Show Ever production company members Garry Williams, Kimberly Denis, Brian Dumont and Cathie Johnson present songs for a new world at the Bailey Theatre May 1, 2 and 3. “It’s going to be a major musical event,” said Johnson. “It’s not very often that you get to see musicians of this calibre coming together for something like this.” A collection of music, lyrics and composition by Jason Robert Brown, songs for a new world explores the spiritual journey from hardship and life altering events to brand new hope. “There are comedic and dramatic pieces interspersed with love ballads,” said Williams. “The characters confront decisions and change and ultimately experience growth. Audiences are sure to be impressed with the performers do their four-part harmony. “It really is stunning,” said Williams. “At times the show feels like it is a pop rock concert.” Best Show Ever has been holding its rehearsals up until now in the basement of Johnson’s mother. “She told me that when we are singing she just closes her eyes and listens,” said Johnson. All four members of Best Show Ever have strong backgrounds in music and musical theatre. Williams, who runs DaPoPo Theatre in Halifax, has performed all over the world, including Dublin (Ireland), New York City and Berlin (Germany), Denis is a voice teacher in Edmonton and a member of Pro Coro Canada, Dumont is an expressive and extremely capable tenor who rocks the karaoke scene and Johnson is a classically trained vocalist who started AboutTime Productions in Camrose after developing nodes on her vocal chords. “I moved into drama after the problem with the nodes and then just went on with musical theatre training,” said Johnson. Williams has been teaching doing workshops with the About Time Productions during the time that he has been here. “I like to have Garry work with the students as much as he is able,” said Johnson.

Clark Duane Schaffert October 24, 1937 – April 23, 2015 Clark was born on October 24, 1937, the youngest son of three children, to Elsie and William Schaffert in Sidney, Nebraska USA. Clark grew up in the sandhills of Nebraska ranching and raising registered horned Hereford cattle. Born into the Nebraska dust bowl in the ’30s, ‘Clarkie’ was a tried and true cattleman from an early age. At the age of 17, he raised a champion Hereford genetics show steer named Donald Duck and won the Grand National AK-SAR-BEN cattle show in Omaha. On February 14, 1957, Clark met his lifelong soulmate Marlyce Ann Aurich, whom he married. Moving across the Western US and following his passion for ranching, they eventually settled in Western Canada, making Alberta their home. Through their 58 years of marriage, Clark and Marlyce raised five children and became grandpa and grandma to 16 grandchildren and seven greatgrandchildren. Hay Lakes became their home in 2002 where they built their dream home filled with love and favorite “kitties”. Clark passed peacefully on Thursday, April 23, 2015, surrounded by the love and prayers of his family in Canada and the USA. He will be deeply missed by his wife Marlyce; brother Richard (Erzbeth) Schaffert of Roy, Utah; children Debra Sherlock of Lincoln Nebraska, Kerry Kahl of Paxton Nebraska, Sherry (Doug) Harris of Cody, Nebraska, Cindy (Wayne) Fox of Biggar, SK, Scott (Camille Ducharme) Schaffert of Peace River, AB; 16 grandchildren; and seven great-grandchildren. Clark was predeceased by his parents William and Elsie Schaffert; infant son David Duane Schaffert; and sister Betty Hadden. A Funeral Service will be held at 1:00 p.m. on Thursday, April 30, 2015 from Our Saviour Lutheran Church, Hay Lakes with Rev. Don Bolstad officiating.

Rev. Dr. Gerald M. Hutchinson March 23, 1914 – April 14, 2015 “A gentleman and a gentle man” Gerry died peacefully in his sleep on April 14, 2015, surrounded by the love of his family. He is survived and warmly loved by his sister-in-law Lorna; children Ken (Kathy), Beth, and Rob (Judy); grandchildren Jennifer, Sean, Tim, Owen and Greg; and great-grandchildren Suzy, Adam, Theo, and Olivia; as well as many nieces and nephews. He is predeceased by his loving wife Miriam; daughter-in-law Jean; son-in-law Michael; his parents Lew and Barbara Hutchinson; and his nine brothers and sisters. Gerry married Miriam in 1942. He completed his divinity degree in 1943, and was ordained into the ministry of The United Church of Canada that spring. Gerry’s work was greatly influenced by his childhood on the farm in Duhamel, his study of agriculture, and his years working with the Student Christian Movement, known for its openness to new ideas and thrust for social justice. Gerry went on to a long career at the provincial and national levels of the United Church, as well as with congregations in Telfordville, Edinburgh, Edson, Grande Prairie and Grenada. He and Miriam enjoyed an active retirement at Pigeon Lake. Gerry developed a keen interest in the history of the Canadian west. A simple question about the name Mission Beach at Pigeon Lake led to fifty years of researching early contact between Aboriginal peoples and Protestant missionaries. His research in Canada, England and Australia led to the publishing of several papers and books, which are available for study and research at the Provincial Archives of Alberta. He was instrumental in the establishment and development of Rundle’s Mission. Throughout his career, he worked to foster and improve relationships between the Church and Aboriginal communities. Gerry was a man of great intelligence, curiosity, humour, courage and strength. He gave and received much love and support from family, old friends and new acquaintances. Please join us in remembering him for a life marvellously lived, at a service to be held at St. Andrew’s United Church (9915-148 Street, Edmonton, AB) on May 19, 2015 at 2:00 p.m. with a reception to follow. Should you wish to make a donation in his name, please consider The Nature Conservancy (alberta@natureconservancy.ca) or the Rundle’s Mission Hutchinson Fund (Box 12 Site 8 RR1, Thorsby, AB T0C 2P0). The family would like to extend a special thank you to all the people of Laurier House Lynnwood: residents, staff and management. Your loving support for Gerry and Miriam these past years has been wonderful and greatly appreciated.

WILCOX In loving memory of
Timmy Wilcox who passed away on April 16, 1978
January 8, 1940 – April 21, 2015 Joan was the eldest daughter of Lena (Olsen) and Harold Hillaby born on January 8, 1940 in Camrose, AB. Beloved sister, mother, grandmother and greatgrandmother, she passed away at the age of 75 at St. Mary’s Hospital on April 21, 2015. Joan began life on a farm south of Ohaton, AB with her two brothers, Arlyn and Allan, and sister Dorothy. She attended Heatherbrae School up to Grade 5 and took her remaining schooling in Bawlf. Graduating in 1959, she then moved to Saskatoon, SK to pursue her dream of a sewing career at the Madeline Hunts Sewing School. Her studies were cut short when the school was relocated to Toronto. Deciding that she did not want to move east, she remained in Saskatoon and worked at the new Hudson’s Bay store for four years. In 1960, Joan married and had three boys Donald, Douglas and Wayne Spence. In 1969, she moved with her boys to Camrose, AB. In 1972, she married Clayton Frang and the family farmed near Ferintosh and Sunset House, AB. Joan and Clay had three daughters Anita, Shauna and Monica, and returned to the Camrose area in 1980, living on an acreage just north of Miquleon Lake before moving back to Camrose. Most recently, she lived in Daysland, including four years at Providence Place, and enjoyed being near her sister Dorothy and her sister-in-law Alice. She taught Sunday School at the Spilstead Church and belonged to the Legion’s Women’s Auxiliary in Bawlf. She was a gifted seamstress, tackling snowsuits and graduation dresses. She enjoyed reading, country music, baking, gardening and researching her family genealogy. In 1983, Joan started working at the newly opened Zellers for the Christmas season, and worked there for over 30 years, making many lifelong friends. Joan was diagnosed with kidney cancer in early 2010. With a toughness for which she was known, she fiercely fought the disease and the challenges that came with it including the removal of a kidney, overcoming a brain tumor that resulted in the total loss of her hair, and the spreading of tumors to multiple organs. She lived on her own until being hospitalized in March and actively fundraised for cancer research. She participated in the Camrose Relay for Life and was featured in Calendars For a Cure. Left to celebrate her memory are siblings Allan and Dorothy (Eric); sister-in-law Alice; her six children Donald (Lorraine), Douglas (Gail), Wayne, Anita (William), Shauna and Monica; six grandchildren Diana (Danny), Debbie (Jonathan), Dawn Ann, Denise, Adam and Noah; and six great-grandchildren Zander, Dakeyras, Kyra, Daes, Deegan and TJ; and many other family members and friends. Joan was predeceased by her parents, her brother Arlyn, sister-in-law Josie and husband Clay. A Funeral Service was held on Friday, April 24, 2015 at 1:00 p.m., from Burgar Memorial Chapel with Rev. Bill Harder officiating. Interment has taken place in the Skafse Cemetery. If friends so desire, memorial contributions are gratefully accepted to Camrose Relay for Life.

Operation Sandbox helps children
Hartman signs with Kodiaks By Murray Green
The Camrose Kodiaks signed forward Ryan Hartman to the hockey team’s organization. Hartman played with Grande Prairie in the AMHL midget triple-A league this past winter and collected 33 points in 33 games. The 1997 born, 6’3” 180 lb. power forward is looking forward to playing in Camrose this upcoming year. “We have been watching him for the past year and our scouting staff said he could play and they were bang on,” said coach and general manager Boris Rybalka. “He is tenacious on the puck and he has a knack around the net. After this weekend at our spring camp, Ryan showed us he will be a dominant player in the AJHL.” Rybalka said there will be more announcements of player commitments over the next few weeks.

Murray Green, Camrose Booster FT Aggregate employees Kailey Korney and Kirby Schmidt-Teigen are gathering toys and building sandboxes for Operation Sandbox on May 2. Volunteers are working hard to provide 16 snadboxes, sand and toys for 16 families. The project will continue on the first Saturday of June, July and August. By Murray Green
FT Aggregates in Camrose is launching a new program, Operation Sandbox, to provide a sandbox, sand and toys to less fortunate children. The family oriented business that offers various landscaping supplies wanted to give back to the community. “With the help of some big hearted and eager sponsors, we have the supplies to construct the sandboxes
and we supply the sand,” said Kailey Korney, office administrator and landscape yard manager. “Families are asked to go to FT to register and pre-order a sandbox.” Operation Sandbox also adds some toys to the sandbox and sand when they are delivered. “We will be giving away sandboxes the first Saturday of May, June, July and August,” added Kailey. “We have had an amazing response. So far, we plan on
delivering 16 sandboxes on May 2.” Although FT staff volunteers have been busy making the sandboxes, they are willing to keep up the pace to help local families. “We have lots of volunteers and some great sponsors helping us out,” said Kailey. Sponsors for the project include Tish’s Fashions and Finery, Icon Safety, Best Western Plus Camrose Resort Casino, ID Apparel,
UFA Farm Store, Canadian Tire, The Auto Shoppe, Camrose Booster, Atema Construction, Havana Tan, Rona, Kid’s campus, Wear Pro, Spur of The Moment/ The Leaning Tree, Hauser Home Hardware and Building Centre and FT Aggregates. For more information on Operation Sandbox visit FT at 3805-48 Avenue, or bring a referral from a local agency.
The Kodiaks announced that Cam Gotaas has been chosen as one of the captains for the 2015-16 season. “With his great leadership he will lead the team in pursuit of their goal of being an AJHL champion,” said Rybalka. “Cam knows what it takes to be successful and the commitment needed to achieve success. He is a born leader with a great attitude and we are excited that he is returning to be one of our captains. We have had some great leaders over our time and we know that Cam will join this elite group.”
Don’t become a victim of home renovation fraud Spring is here, a time when many consumers’ thoughts turn to home renovations. Fraud Prevention Month is a good time to remind homeowners to protect themselves against deceitful contractors. Home renovation fraud is one of the most common complaints received by Service Alberta and costs homeowners in the province hundreds of thousands of dollars each year. Door-to-door paving contractors are frequent subjects of complaints. In a typical scam, a contractor arrives at a consumer’s home without warning, claims to have left-
over asphalt from another job in the area, and offers a discount for paving jobs. The quality of the asphalt and work provided is usually poor, with driveways falling apart within days. By the time consumers notice problems, the pavers have left the area making it difficult for consumers to address problems directly. Service Alberta’s Consumer Investigations Unit recently investigated complaints into one similar incident. Michael George MacDonald and his company, Highway Maintenance and Asphalt Repair were convicted on 44 counts under the
Fair Trading Act in relation to a paving scam that primarily targeted the elderly in various rural communities across Alberta. In November 2014, MacDonald and his company were fined nearly $887,000 and ordered to make restitution of nearly $138,000. Service Alberta urges consumers to take the following steps to protect themselves: If a contractor wants payment up front, first make sure they are on a list of licensed and bonded businesses at servicealberta.ca or call the Consumer Contact Centre toll-free at 1-877-4274088.
Check references and confirm the contractor’s complaint history through the local Better Business Bureau. Get at least three estimates before entering into a contract. Always get estimates and contracts in writing; make sure they include key dates, cancelation rights and a description of materials to be used. Beware of unsolicited door-to-door offers or deals from contractors who “just happen” to be in the area. Homeowners should also consider holding back a portion of the payment, which
allows them time to deal with any deficiencies and ensure suppliers have been paid. Don’t pay a large deposit to renovators for materials. Most reputable contractors maintain charge accounts with their suppliers. Service Alberta works with law enforcement, other levels of government and business groups to help Albertans: recognize fraud in its various forms; learn how and where to report it; and how to stop fraud before a scammer cheats someone out of their hard-earned money.

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.

Songs for a new world Continued from page 38
Williams, Denis, Dumont and Johnson will be accompanied while they are on stage by pianist Susan Ward and percussionist Lance Brown, both of whom are former Camrose and District Music Festival Rose Bowl winners. “They are major talents,� said Johnson. “We are excited about having them join us.� Johnson is hoping that songs for a new world will encourage AboutTime Theatre students to explore whatever passions they have about having a career in the arts. “I would like them to look at this as something they can do also,� she said. “A lot of us have been taught that getting into theatre is fine but you eventually need to go into a job that pays. Well, the two professionals who are in this show (Williams and Denis) are examples of what can happen when you work hard and push on with something you really want to do. They are living out their dream of being an artist.� The final matinee performance of songs for a new world will be followed by a performance later that day at the Muttart in Edmonton.
