APPmazing technology has rapidly swept over Camrose and district in the past two weeks. Hundreds of people have put

Camrose in their pockets!

The reasons for the astounding pace of downloads of Camrose Now! are as varied as the level of content on the FREE APP. Some people have been wowed by the complete tap and insta-connect electronic residential and business phone book. Others cherish the family-friendly jokes (found in the fun section), which change daily. Others are being attracted by the opportunity to place personal buy-and-sell ads, or garage sale ads, at absolutely no charge.

The map location feature and turn-by-turn instructions, whether you are driving, walking or bike riding to any of the Camrose and area businesses which you have effortlessly sourced on Camrose Now! have been an immediate and widespread marvel for users. And, of course, the restaurant menus, (which can be found by swiping the profile pictures of local fast food or dining establishments) are truly handy ….and that’s just a small sample of why people have become so excited about Camrose Now!

REFLECTIONS

Letters to the Editor

by Bonnie Hutchinson Feeling sunny Sometimes – even when you do something stupid – something turns out so well you almost don’t believe it. *** Back in January over breakfast with friends, I speculated that my less-than-sunny mood might have been a result of many grey-sky days.

I was pining for sunshine. My friends recommended that I purchase a sunlamp.

Later that week, I was in one of those sell-everything drug stores (electronics, furniture, clothing, groceries, household goods and, oh yes, a pharmacy). Turned out that they did indeed sell sunlamps – in the pharmacy department!

A pharmacist helped me pick out a sunlamp – a small compact model that would sit unobtrusively on my desk and flood me with pretend sunlight *** Back home, I looked forward to basking in pretend sunlight.

It was not that simple. The sunlamp was compact, but the packaging was not. Eventually I unearthed all the components, assembled them, and did my best to follow the instructions, but could not get the sunlamp to function. I did not feel sunny. *** It took a couple of weeks before it was convenient to get back to the sell-everything drug store. Armed with my sunlamp re-packed in the box, along with the instructions and my receipt, I stood in line behind people waiting to have prescriptions filled. At the front of the line, I explained my problem. The young woman had to search for a plug-in and consult one of her colleagues, but she figured it out. She gave me a tutorial about exactly what I had to do to make the sunlamp work. I tried it myself a few times before I left. *** Back home, it worked. I did indeed bask in pretend sunlight. Since the sunlamp was working, and since I’ve been on a pitch-unnecessary-paper binge lately, I threw away the box and the receipt.

Then one day, the sunlamp stopped working. I followed the same steps, but it simply did not work. I regretted having thrown away the receipt.

For a couple of months it was an irritation. It didn’t seem right to throw the sunlamp away (drive to an ecostation?) and without a receipt there was no point in trying to return it. Every time I noticed it, I did not feel sunny. *** Last week, I was going to be near the sell-everything drug store so I took the sunlamp back. I didn’t think they could fix it but at least they could dispose of it.

Again, I stood behind people waiting to speak with a pharmacist. At the front of the line was the same young woman who’d helped me the first time. (What are the odds?) Again, she had to plug it in and again she consulted a colleague. He could make it work. She could not. The reason? He was strong enough to press hard enough on the power button. She was not. Neither was I. I said I’d like to leave the sunlamp there, because there was no point in me having it when I couldn’t turn it on.

To my surprise, the young woman said, “Let’s see if we can work something out.” *** She called the store supervisor and explained the situation. The supervisor said, “Do you know when you purchased it?” I said, “Sometime in January.” The supervisor checked some things and said, “It was probably January 4 and you probably paid $179 for it.”

They found me another sunlamp – still compact but with a switch I could actually turn on. I was thrilled. I thanked them and began to walk away, when they said, “Wait, there’s still your refund.” They calculated the difference in cost between the one they believed I bought in January and the one they gave me. I walked out with a sunlamp that works, and a refund of $62! *** Sometimes – even when you do something stupid – something turns out so well you almost don’t believe it. I’m basking, and it’s not just the pretend sunlight! *** If you have comments about this column or suggestions for future topics, send a note to Bonnie@BonnieHutchinson.com

Residential parking The community housing developers have reduced the size of our residential lot sizes to accommodate an extra home or two in each block. This has caused quite a concern for area residences as far as allotted parking on the residence frontage. We have minimal parking spaces in front of our residences provided by the developers of the communities.

I have continually noticed when there are two parking spaces available an inconsiderate driver will park in the middle of the parking spaces allotted, not allowing parking space for another vehicle.

A little consideration and common sense would go a long way to solve this situation. This also applies to the local residence owner.

If your guest has parked their vehicle in this manner, approach them and inform them that they have taken up two spaces and ask them to move their vehicle to allow an additional vehicle to park. Show a little consideration to your neighbour as they may have guests arriving.

We have community mailboxes in our communities. We have noticed on many occasions a considerable number of vehicles parked in front of the mailboxes, which causes concerns for the postal employees delivering the mail and for local residents picking up their mail.

The extra few feet they would have to walk to get to their destination probably would not hurt their health, probably the fresh air might help them clear their heads, so they can think more clearly.

The local resident should be paying attention

to their parking as well and ask them to move their vehicle away from the postal drop zone. I would like to see the city councillors place a restricted parking zone in front of these residential mailboxes with a tag and tow situation for those who do not respect these restricted parking zones.

Rodger Banack, Camrose Hospice home As chairperson of the Hospice Society of Camrose and District (HSCD), on behalf of the board of directors, I would like to thank everyone that attended our town hall meeting on March 1 at the Norsemen Inn to hear and talk more about our Hospice Home project.

As you may know, the HSCD is a registered charity (#839859709RR0001) established in November 2011. Our vision is to provide compassionate, holistic care to those who are dying and to their loved ones.

Our mission is to enable our community to support those individuals facing advancing illness, death and bereavement with dignity through education and compassionate care.

To date the HSCD has coordinated and facilitated a number of education opportunities within our catchment area in hopes of affirming the dying process as a natural and dignified part of life. In October 2015, the society organized a one day conference for caregivers, family members, professionals, and anyone interested in care for the dying. The conference was well attended with over 100 participants from across central Alberta.

In cooperation with health care professionals in our catchment area, the HSCD has also established a robust volunteer program for those who wish to provide support to those who are dying and their loved ones. Volunteers are currently in Covenant Health St. Mary’s Hospital and Bethany Camrose. Other society sponsored activities occurring throughout the year include the Hike for Hospice and Lights to Remember. In 2016, the HSCD will commence a

Grief and Bereavement Support Program.

In addition to supporting and enhancing quality palliative and end of life care throughout Camrose and area, a long term goal of the HSCD has been to construct and operate a hospice home for people who wish to die in a comfortable, peaceful and supportive setting.

During our town meeting the board was excited to announce the society’s intentions to move forward in building a six-bed hospice home and the board was so grateful and appreciative of the support and enthusiasm from those that attended the meeting regarding the project.

The HSCD is so proud of the charitable services we have been able to provide to date and is eager to begin the work of constructing a six-bed hospice home. We know in order for our hospice home to be successful, community engagement, consultation and support is vital.

Your support for our hospice home, would be helping the residents of Camrose and area during one of life’s most difficult journeys. For more information regarding the society or the hospice home project feel free to contact me at stacey.strilchuk@ camrosepcn.com or 780-281-0921.

Stacey L. Strilchuk, chairperson, Hospice Society of Camrose and District Elk Island So the EICS is rejecting the city’s proposal to build a Catholic high school on the CCHS grounds because it contradicts their fundamental principles for building Catholic schools. Has there ever been a more blatant example of a holier than thou attitude? Are we to understand that they don’t want the students of Catholic schools to intermix with public school students?

Honestly, what an insult!

Time for a reality check.

Covenant Health honoured for ethical practice

By Murray Green Covenant Health, which includes St. Mary’s Hospital Camrose, has received international recognition for its ethical practices.

Covenant Health is one of seven health care organizations and the only Canadian company recognized by the Ethisphere Institute as a 2016 World’s Most Ethical Company. Ethisphere is a United States based company whose business is coaching companies on how to define good ethical business practices.

“For us, the honour is more than a designation. It is willingness to hold ourselves up to public scrutiny, to test our ethical performance and to drive quality improvement,” said Gordon Self, Covenant vice-presi-

dent of Mission, Ethics and Spirituality. “We weren’t successful the first year, but through the recommendations we received, we were able to address identified areas of deficiencies and leverage existing strengths, and we remain committed to continuing that growth.”

Ethisphere is honouring 131 companies this year from around the world. The companies are evaluated in five areas of ethical performance: Corporate Governance; Compliance and Ethics Program; Culture of Ethics; Corporate Citizenship, and; Leadership, Innovation and Reputation.

“Every decision we make, be it at the bedside or around our senior leadership table, is values driven.

The question we have to constantly ask ourselves is

whether these decisions are aligned with who we say we are as an organization,” said Self. “Do our personal and organizational values consistently inform the choices we make? In humility, that is a question we all have to ask ourselves, and to keep striving in living up to that ideal every day.”

The Mission Discernment tool was designed to help Covenant Health leaders make good decisions in alignment with the organization’s mission and values.

Covenant Health received high marks for its mission discernment. It has a tool, recognized nationally by Accreditation Canada as leading practice, to help staff work through difficult organizational matters. For example, it was used on an increasingly sensitive

societal issue—the use of disclosed and hidden electronic recording devices, such as nanny cams, in the care setting. The discernment recognized potential benefits of cameras, such as keeping families connected, as well as privacy risks and other trust issues.

“It is an issue we recently faced at one of our Lethbridge sites. A family set up a camera in their loved one’s room; it was discovered by a staff member cleaning. We were shocked at first and then disappointed,” admitted Tracy Sommerfeld, senior director operations, Rural Senior’s Care. “We felt, why would they do this, do they have a problem with their loved ones care, why didn’t they come to us first? “ This basic record-

ing device was placed in the room of a resident at a Lethbridge care facility.

The family of the resident said they were happy with their loved one’s care, it was there as a safety measure.

Sommerfeld said the care team approached the family in the spirit of understanding their needs.

It turned out the family was recording out of a sense of security. They never even reviewed the recordings, it was there “just in case.”

But, the incident highlighted an issue for the organization as a whole.

“The designation is only a start. There is, of course, always more for us to strive for, but it’s still something for which Covenant Health should be really proud,” said Self.

Anger Management program in April

By Dan Jensen

Making Waves – A Hundred Years Later

In the world of physics, it is not uncommon to predict a new physical phenomenon, based on theoretical work alone. Pure thought can lead to new insights into how nature works, even before anyone has had the chance to test these predictions. This certainly sets us aside from other species on this planet. We have the capacity to figure out nature from our armchairs.

Usually, experimental veriPeter Berg, professor fication of such predictions foland Chair of Science, lows within a few years. It is rare Augustana Campus, that it takes a few decades. The University of Alberta discovery of the Higgs boson, an elementary particle, is one example of a delayed verification. The particle’s existence was predicted in 1964, but not found until 2012, inside a massive particle accelerator in Switzerland, nearly 50 years later. No wonder its prediction earned a Nobel Prize.

Mathematicians also like to postulate new things and call them hypotheses or unproven theorems. Some theorems have been around for hundreds of years and have yet to be proven.

That does not mean that things are hopeless. Fermat’s Last Theorem, a statement about certain relations between integer numbers, was around for 357 years before one Andrew Wiles showed that it was true.

The difference between mathematics and physics is that mathematicians have to prove theorems with pencil and paper. In contrast, physicists need to build devices to take ever more accurate measurements that can verify theoretical results. Sometimes, this can be done at low cost. Often, it requires billions of dollars. Is it worth it?

For a physicist, the answer is obviously - and perhaps selfishly - yes. Whenever I doubt such expenditures, a ground breaking discovery reminds me quickly of why I studied physics and chose it as a career path. As a German, I am pleased to see that Herr Einstein has done it again: exactly 100 years after Einstein’s prediction of gravitational waves, a consequence of his General Theory of Relativity, their existence was finally confirmed a few weeks ago. It took us that long to build instruments that are sensitive enough to detect the weakest perturbations to our structure of space here in Earth, caused by something that happened more than a billion light years away somewhere in a distant part of our universe. The effect that needs to be detected is mind bogglingly small. It calls for a measurement that is a fraction of the size of a nucleus, the core of an atom. One would think that any vibration in the lab would easily be larger than such a small warp in space and, therefore, make any detection of the signal that we are after an impossibility. In fact, that is what Einstein himself thought until we proved him wrong and right at the same time.

Why does this all matter?

Gravitational waves can travel further than light waves and other electromagnetic waves since they have the capacity to pass through matter that is located between their source and us, the observers, here on Earth. In principle, this allows us to look much deeper into the universe and, hence, much further into the past than we are currently able to do. Who knows, perhaps it will allow us to observe the very first moments after the Big Bang?

I am amazed at how far we have come in observing and explaining our place in the universe. Cosmology is making rapid advances, even though we cannot explain everything we observe - yet. We physicists do not despair. We simply give names to things we do not understand: Dark Energy, Dark Energy, ParticleWave Duality. We pick cool names that get us attention - and funding! Hopefully, our society will have the capacity to continue to support physicists with such endeavors. After all, how can we not? The pursuit of knowledge for knowledge’s sake is what has advanced our society time and again.

As D.H. Lawrence so eloquently put it in his poem, New Heaven and New Earth: “I was a tiger bursting into sunlight. I was greedy, I was mad for the unknown. I, new-risen, resurrected, starved from the tomb starved from a life of devouring always myself now here was I, new-awakened, with my hand stretching out and touching the unknown, the real unknown, the unknown unknown.”

It is this ‘greedy’ madness for the knowledge—towards the known unknown—that has always driven scientific inquiry; but it is the unknown unknowns that ultimately make the humble life of a physicist a real adventure.

Peter Berg will be hosting an evening event about the Enigma machine on March 23 at the Performing Arts Center in Camrose. It will feature an original Enigma machine, a talk about the Enigma’s history and a showing of the movie “The Imitation Game”.

Do you have a hard time controlling your anger or just letting something go after a perceived or real slight? Do you find yourself going into a rage over the smallest mistake by another driver? The Camrose Family Violence Action Society Anger Management program starting April 4 can help.

“It’s a program that helps people address conflict constructively, set personal boundaries, communicate more effectively, express their ideas and feelings, manage their stress using healthy strategies, and contribute to healthy relationships,” said Family Violence Action Society director Sheralyn Dobos.

Topics that will be addressed in the eight weekly sessions include understanding anger, exploring anger and other emotions, anger experiences and anger styles, anger behaviours, distortions and triggers, anger in the family and in culture, emergency techniques for dealing with anger, assertiveness and communication, empathy, forgiveness and letting go, and self care.

“The program offers a combination of education and discussion,” said Dobos. “People, if they want, get to talk about how they relate to the topics discussed and how they address the anger they feel.”

The Anger Management program had 18 participants in 2015, some of whom attended voluntarily, and some of whom who were required to attend by

courts, employers or children’s services.

“People tell us that the anger management group has helped them to understand and recognize anger, learn what it is and isn’t, recognize their triggers, find strategies to deal with the emotions before they get out of control, and have more patience in their relationships,” said Dobos.

One former participant noted the program provided a greater awareness of habits and reactions.

Another said “I don’t yell anymore. I can stop myself before I lose it.”

Anger Management program facilitators are Mona Lamoureux, a mental health worker, and Rhiannon Wegenast, a chartered psychologist.

Both ladies have a high degree of expertise in the areas of conflict resolution.

The subject of anger was summed up well by famous 19th century writer Mark Twain, who said that anger is an acid that can do more harm to the vessel in which it is stored than to anything on which it is poured.”

“I think that quote says a lot because if you don’t handle anger well or in a healthy manner it can totally destroy relationships,” said Dobos.

The key is to get people to express their anger in healthy ways.

“In our society we are not very good at knowing what to do with our anger,” said Dobos. “People think it is not acceptable to express their anger so they bottle

MOON WALKERS

it up, but you can only do that for so long before it starts to seep up or explode.

When people bottle up their anger it either goes inward and causes them physical or mental health problems, or else it compresses to the point and finally explodes.

That is when people get hurt, either verbally or physically. The Anger Management program is helpful for people who feel their anger is eating them up inside. Once they learn different ways to express their anger they start to feel differently. They start having better relationships because they start responding in a way that is not destructive to themselves or others.”

The Anger Management program requires that people register in advance, attend an intake appointment and commit themselves to attending all eight weekly sessions.

“If people are going to take up a space in the group then they need to commit to being here every week,” said Dobos. “We don’t charge a registration fee because we know that while there are many people who could afford it there are also many who can’t. We don’t want the knowledge and the skills we provide to be available only to people who can afford to pay.”

More information about the Anger Management program may be obtained by calling the Family Violence Action Society at 780-672-0141 or sending an e-mail to cdss5@telusplanet.net.

Museum planning Norwegian Day event

KEN’S FURNITURE’S COLOSSAL

By Murray Green

The Camrose and District Centennial Museum is planning to mark the opening of the museum’s summer season with a celebration of Norwegian Independence Day on May 17.

The first celebration of Norwegian Independence Day was held in Camrose in 1912.

“We want to attract more volunteers to help out with various projects at the museum. We want people to find their area of expertise and they don’t have to come to meetings if they don’t want to,” explained museum manager Janine Carroll. “Just because someone volunteers in one area, it doesn’t mean they will be coaxed to help in other areas. We are holding meetings now to prepare for the season and we are keeping them to under an hour.”

A meeting is scheduled on Monday, March 21 from 7 to 8 p.m. at the museum’s main building.

“Our first topic is creating an event to mark our opening. Traditionally, we open on the May long weekend, but it is not the best time to have a celebration.

We were looking at photographs and noticed that Norwegian Independence day was well attended more than 100 years ago. It is on May 17, so it is a historical event and we can celebrate with food, costumes and fun.”

Carroll would like to bring back old fashioned games like pillow fights, 100 yard run, hop, step and jump, tug-a-war and other fun events. “We are looking for people to help plan some fun events. I would like to create an old colouring book to mark history. The Norwegian Independence Day in Camrose was one of the biggest events in North America. It was a tent city when it started. We have pictures of bandstands and it would be nice to have a band and dance.”

The museum winter hours are from Wednesday to Friday from noon to 4 p.m. Summer hours are Wednesday to Sunday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. On the two long weekends, the museum will be open on Monday.

“We want to be open when people want to come for a visit and tour,” said Carroll. “We are also open on Machinery Day, which will be Oct. 1 to coordinate with Alberta Culture Days.”

The museum is also looking for volunteers to assist with maintenance of the steam engine, tractors or vehicles. Janine also

Stepping up awareness with colourful socks

By Lori Larsen Spreading awareness for any cause has the potential to create a world of people armed with knowledge instead of insensitivity.

On March 21, people around the world will expand their understanding of Down syndrome with the observance of World Down Syndrome Awareness Day. Camrose’s residents Mindy and Nathan Felgate know all too well the positive affects that spreading the word can have.

“Back in November 2014 my husband and I found out at our first ultra sound that we would be adding not one but two new additions to our family,” said Mindy.

Out of mere precaution Mindy had a nuchal translucency test (non invasive prenatal ultrasound in the first trimester to determine the likelihood of Down’s syndrome) done.

“At 12 weeks we went into the maternal fetal medicine clinic to get an in depth ultrasound of our little babies,” remarked Mindy.

“Little did we know that this would be the first of many ultrasounds and our life, as we knew it, would change forever.”

During that ultrasound Mindy and Nathan were able to see the two babies kicking and moving and were told they were fraternal twin boys.

They enjoyed the excitement of the moment however some remarks from the ultrasound technician did cause concern and when the doctor came in to speak to them those concerns were validated.

“She asked that I lay back down so she could have a look at the twins. She took a few more measurements and then delivered the news that they suspected Baby B had Down syndrome as he was showing many soft markers.”

Both parents were in shock, as would be any soon-tobe parent hearing unexpected news about the condition of their unborn baby.

“We were sent to see a

genetic counselor to talk more about what this meant for us,” said Mindy “We took in as much information as we could and were sent home to process it all.”

Despite the shock and uncertainties Mindy and Nathan were happy both babies were relatively healthy and there were no signs of major issues. They resigned themselves to the fact that this was a challenge, but handling it was something they could and would be able to do.

However, the challenges didn’t end there. At the next ultrasound, a few weeks later, the parents were delivered the news that baby A also showed signs of soft markers for Down syndrome and had also developed Hydrops (fluid around the heart, lungs and belly). The

doctor explained there was a strong possibility baby A would not make it through the pregnancy, news no parent wants to hear.

“We wanted to be 100 per cent certain the boys did have a genetic disorder,” said Mindy.

“I underwent two amniocentesis procedures and after waiting only two days received a call from the genetic counselor confirming that both babies, did in fact have Down syndrome.

“We were in utter disbelief.

We knew we could handle one special needs child, but were we prepared for two? And how would we tell our family and friends? It just all seemed like so much to bear,” commented Mindy.

It was at that point that Mindy began her journey of

insight into Down syndrome and reaching out to local Down syndrome societies and other parents of Down syndrome children.

“The support system was incredible. And the more I learned and the more moms I spoke to that had little ones with Down syndrome, everything started to become exciting to me again. I could start enjoying the pregnancy and start looking forward to meeting these two incredible baby boys.”

Eli and Isaac were born premature at 34 weeks. “The boys fought the odds together and taught us life lessons about bravery, priorities, faith, hope and most of all love,” said Mindy of the twin boys.

“It’s hard to believe we will be celebrating their first birth-

days in a few short months; we marvel and feel an abundance of gratitude for all that had to happen for these boys to be here today and for their miraculous little lives that bless us daily.”

“Down syndrome does not define these two boys. The future holds many wonderful things for Eli and Isaac.

We will never limit them and will support them in whatever comes their way.”

To raise awareness on World Down Syndrome Day don some brightly coloured socks, any style, any size and any amount. If you don’t normally wear socks then step out of your comfort zone and put on the flashiest pair to show your support to the Felgate family and to anyone touched by Down syndrome.

By Lori Larsen If you are a budding mathematician who wants to flex your brawny brain then the Canadian Math Kangaroo Competition (CMKC) may be just what you need.

The University of Alberta Augustana is hosting Camrose’s first Math Kangaroo contest on March 20.

Organizer professor William Hackborn, professor of mathematics and computing science at Augustana, first heard of the contest while attending an Alberta math conference at MacEwan University.

“It’s a way of getting students excited about math,” said Hackborn.

“The contest is largely about participation, not so

much competition. But the competition aspect is there, which students appreciate.

“There are competitions for athletics but there isn’t much for those who are academically inclined.”

The purpose of the CMKC is to introduce math challenges to students from Grades 1 to 12 in a fun and enjoyable event.

It will include contests for Grades 1 and 2, 3 and 4, 5 and 6, 7 and 8 and 9 to 12.

“They will use some of the content they would use at those grade levels but a lot of it is about logical and mathematical thinking,” said Hackborn.

“They won’t necessarily need the technical background, especially in the earlier grades.

“It will involve some look-

ing at patterns and what is different about the patterns.”

The CMKC website, https://kangaroo.math.ca/, provides samples of questions used in previous years for the different grade levels, as well as other information about the association.

The Math Kangaroo Contest originated in France in 1991 and gained popularity with students in Europe. The association “Kangourou sans frontieres” (Kangaroos Without Borders), which is responsible for organizing events, was started years later.

The Canadian edition began in 2001 and in 2006 officially became a member of the association.

Camrose has its very own local connection to CMKC

through Josey Peterson, the executive director, and a former resident of Camrose.

“I lived in Camrose for 17 years prior to going to university at Concordia in Edmonton,” said Peterson “The dancing and volunteering I did in the community of Camrose extended into my university life when I first got involved with the Math Kangaroo in 2008.

“Currently, as executive director, I am assisting with the overall operation of the national Canadian Math Kangaroo Contest, which includes growth and new locations.”

“Camrose really seemed like a natural fit due to the fact that we normally operate out of universities and Camrose serves a large area.”

The contest offers math aficionados an opportunity to come out and test their skills while enjoying an event that may lead to even bigger prospects such as the Math Olympiad.

“If I were a student again, this is something I would have loved to participate in,” commented Peterson.

“If you were to ask me what I do now, I share the Joy of Mathematics in Canada through the Canadian Math Kangaroo Contest.”

Registrations for the competition must be in by Mar. 17.

Changes to Camrose garbage collection coming this spring

By Dan Jensen

Camrose residents will be seeing a change in the way their garbage is picked up this spring.

Camrose mayor Norm Mayer told Chamber of Commerce members in his annual State of Camrose address March 2 that the traditional garbage collection system will be replaced by a less manually-labour intensive system that uses totes.

“The garbage cans will be replaced by tote barrels that will be picked up by

mechanical front end equipment,” said Mayer.

The changes are a result of negotiations over the new garbage contract and concerns about the number of back injuries being suffered by those who are doing the garbage can pickups.

“We were able to extend the contract we have on the basis that we would, in May of this year, basically go to a new process, being the tote garbage collection system,” said Mayer. “The inju-

ries to the people doing the labour have become prohibitive from health standards requirements.”

Mayer feels there will be a few hiccups in implementing the new system and getting residents to change from what they are doing today.

“There are some places where people have built garbage racks at the back that fit their garbage tins,” he said. “Those things are not going to work anymore.”

Footloose musical

By Niel Sorensen

Footloose plays until March 20 at the Augustana Theatre Centre. Smells like teen spirit! An alternative rock anthem from the early 90s whose title is equally applicable when describing the energetic musical presentation of Footloose: The Musical by the drama department. Footloose is the story of one family and one town’s struggle to cope with loss and grief.

Recently abandoned, Ethel McCormack and her highly spirited, emotionally charged son, Ren, make a move from the memory- riddled city of Chicago to the small bucolic town of

Bomont; a town battling its own emotional demons.

Augustana has done a solid job in presenting Footloose. Under the direction of Jeff Page, the cast hits the ground running. Staging is done in a minimalist style, which fits the theatre venue well. Scene transitions were completed quickly and smoothly and allowed the audience to maintain focus on the characters and the plot and kept the play moving at an appropriate pace. From the beginning, the cast drew the audience into their world with their many and varied antics and shenanigans! The opening dance number and subsequent

Augustana Theatre Centre, Camrose

dance sequences, while a bit stiff in places, certainly caused us, as the audience, to want to know more about the youth of Bomont.

We were further enticed by the darkly handsome, richly voiced Ren (played by Vincent Major), a departure from the “Kevin Bacon-esque” actor type one is accustomed to, who was clearly struggling with abandonment issues. He did a good job of convincing me of the depth of his struggle and the genuineness of his intentions. Ren( Mr. Major) was ably assisted by his good friend Willard, played by Dylan Hansen. This was a delightful character that one could not help but love. A mixture of stubborn, cowboy buffoon and robustly proportioned, big-hearted charmer,

he was a perfect foil to the more polished Ren. When Willard began to sing about what “Mama Says”, nuts or not, we all wanted to hear more about Mama’s bovine brand of homespun wisdom.

Nicely done, Mr. Hansen. You do your Mama proud.

Ren was driven onward by his burgeoning love for Ariel Moore, daughter of the good Reverend Moore and his wife.

Ariel, played by Lilli Furfarro, was a bit wooden at first and I was uncertain as to whether she had what it took to “get around.”

However, by the time she belted out her need for a hero with the assistance of Urleen (Raegen Mines), Rusty (Amy Wright), and Wendy Jo (Sharnelle

Umphrey), it was clear why she had, indeed, been getting around and there was no mystery as to why those red lips would soon draw Ren’s attention. Special mention must also be made of Mrs. Vi Moore (played by Amy Lechelt), a lady who must deal with the challenges of a rigid and conflicted husband (played

by Brian Hager) who is struggling as a pastor, a husband and a father. Her soft replies and lovely voice in “Learning To Be Silent” (assisted by the lovely voice of Carolyn Venter as Ethel McCormack) and “Can You Find It In Your Heart?” were very sweet moments that provided spots of light in the darkly pious world of Reverend Moore.

Godfrey Blaque plays at Bailey event

By Murray Green

Camrose band Godfrey Blaque will be leading the Fun_raiser dance party at the Bailey Theatre on Saturday, March 19.

Godfrey Blaque was started in 1968 as a Camrose rock band and although some band members have come and gone, the music still reflects the rock sounds of the 60s, up to the more modern classics.

“This is our second fundraiser for the Bailey.

This is a great venue and we want to keep it going.

We love playing at the Bailey and all of the musicians that play there love it too,” said original band member Jan Nowakoski. “The Bailey needs money to keep going and holding a show at no charge is our way of giving back to the community. It is important to us to help out and do our part.”

Keyboard player Jim Hough feels that both the band and the facility have a connection.

“Godfrey Blaque is the oldest rock band in Camrose and to be around that long and still have a good following says something about the musicians,” said Jim. Godfrey Blaque is well

known as a good band for getting people up dancing and having a good time.

“We like to play popular songs that most everybody knows and it brings back fond memories for most people. We like to see people up dancing and having a good time while listening to our music,” said Jan. “If you haven’t been in the Bailey before (since it has been fully renovated) I encourage you to come out and see it.”

When the Xtatix decided

to cease playing, Jim one of the youngest members, was left without a band.

“I was proud and honoured when these guys asked me to join them,” said Jim. “Godfrey Blaque didn’t have a piano player in the band before, so that is what I brought to the table.

It opened the band up to performing some songs they weren’t able to do before. We practice once or twice a week and there is a camaraderie

By Dan Jensen In the books and movies that focus on dogs the heroes are usually the German Shepherds, St. Bernards or, in the case of Disney, Dalmations.

The Adventures of Long Dog D’Silvo and The Adventures of Long Dog D’Silvo and Son by Wetaskiwin author Lori Feldberg is helping to change that pattern.

Aimed at children between the ages of nine and 12, the books follow the exploits of Long Dog, an underdog Dachshund hero whose long ears help him swim and “telescope” up or around corners to eavesdrop on troublemakers. With a nose for trouble, he leads the Doggie Gang into conquering dognapping rings, thwarting jewelry heists and saving lives, both human and animal. The yacht dogs travelling the east coast – a St. Bernard, Chihuahua, Sealyham Terrier and even two snobby black Newfoundlands – come to view him as their heroic leader, as do Long Dog’s people, the D’Silvo family.

Feldberg describes Long Dog as an under hero with Christian values who stands up for what is right.

“It was neat trying to figure out all kinds of adventures for him to get into,” she said.

The underlying message of the books seems to illustrate the point that you can accomplish great things if

you simply use the talents you already have.

“I wanted to concentrate on the little guy,” said Feldberg. “I have had dealings with Dachshunds before and I think they are neat little dogs with lots of personality.”

The books have already received a number of positive reviews, one from Janet Matthews, co-author of Chicken Soup for the Canadian Soul, Chicken Soup for the Soul O Canada: The Wonders of Winter, and Chicken Soup for the Soul: Christmas in Canada.

“Anyone who claims that a diminutive little breed like the Dachshund could never display heroic qualities hasn’t read about the adventures and exploits of Long Dog and his Doggie Gang,” says Matthews on The Adventures of Long Dog D’Silvo’s back cover. “Young readers will love the underdog who becomes hero to both man and beast.”

Henry Saley, of Saley Publications, Brechin, Ontario, said that Feldberg has created, in Long Dog, an engaging hero.

“Long Dog is a bold and lovable dog who gets himself and his friends mixed up in a series of unexpected adventures,” he said. “It’s a perfect fit for young readers.”

Colu m n ist /repor t er, teacher and parent/grandparent Margaret Chegwin said the dog’s perspective of Long Dog D’Silvo show both how dogs living in close company with people become almost like people, and how

the same dogs remain animals with animal appetites, feelings and reactions, both concepts today’s children need as they grow up more and more separated from the natural word.

“At the same time, the rollicking adventures show how small ones can make important contributions and provide leadership,” said Chegwin.

The books come complete with engaging illustrations for each adventure to enhance newcomers to the world of reading.

“The books will engender enthusiastic grandparents and dog lovers of all ages to read it themselves or to entertain young charges by reading aloud,” said Amy Groening, project manager for World Alive Press, which published the books.

Feldberg hopes to have the books for sale at the Camrose and District Farmers’ Market in the coming weeks, and is planning to contact the Camrose Public Library and schools about doing public readings.

Feldberg began writing horse and dog stories at an early age, and is perfecting her skills in genres like mystery, Western, Romance, and even fantasy, along with true adventure and newspaper articles. She has been published in many periodicals, magazines, and book anthologies like Chicken Soup for the Soul: Christmas in Canada, and Summit Studios’ collection of humourous

for these guys. I’m glad to be part of that.”

The band wants to bring back the fun of dances many people enjoyed. It is a time of relaxing with friends and dancing the night away.

“We are a dance band and the floor is usually full.

It was to create the old days when everyone went out to listen to local bands on the weekend,” said Jim. “Facilities and gems like these are disappearing across the country.”

“I have so many memories from the Bailey and going to shows. I think is important to keep the history going. This venue makes it possible to bring in shows like the Irish Rovers and the Stampeders,” added Jan. “There are also a lot of good musicians in Camrose and this gives them a place to play.”

Besides the fun music, a brown paper bag raffle will be held for some special wines from a private collection and other interesting beverages.

The Bailey showed movies until the mid 90s. Renovations were started but money ran out. The building sat dormant until 2006 when a major benefactor stepped forward with a gift of $1.75 million and a further contribution of $750,000 to match any private donations from the community put the restoration of the theatre back on track. The Bailey is now raising funds to pay off the mortgage.

All proceeds from the evening will go to the Bailey Theatre. A limited number of tickets are available at the box office or online at www.baileytheatre.com.

In Memory of Wayne Gaalaas Last week one of the true community builders of Camrose passed on. For those of us who had crossed paths with, or had lives impacted by knowing, Wayne this was very difficult news to accept. Throughout his entire life Wayne oozed care, concern and charisma. During his entire adult life, he had a history of serious health issues but he did not allow this to negatively impact his approach to living and he did not seek sympathy – unless of course it was in a “Wayne-only” kind of humorous way. Who else, as just one example, would want to cruise Camrose with a license plate which read: no snivelling? To “Wayner”, others’ problems were always more important and pressing than his own situation.

Due to his ever-decreasing health condition over the past few years Wayne was somewhat less visible in the community. In his prime of life, he made an impact everywhere, everyday – in his businesses, at fundraisers and all types of community events. Wayne was larger than life and full of life. He brought smiles to people’s faces, always!

This whether lighting up a room with sincere comments, his quick wit or those always hilarious pranks, latest gimmicks, signage, or gadgets. He touched lives personally and many people he did not know by supporting most every charity or fundraiser that seemed to seek out his office door. He had a way to make anyone and everyone feel better. His integrity was unmatchable. His word – as good a legal document. Perhaps it was Wayne, more any other person that I and countless others I am sure, watched and learned from in business and in life. It was a treat and a marvel to have watched him in action and we all learned from him. I will forever envy the way he treated people, developed long term friendships, stood as a man of his word, and mastered doing business in an honest and professional manner.

I wish everyone could have known Wayne Gaalaas. Your own life could not have helped but have been enriched as a result.

Marlene, Jeff and Jill: I want you to know that I speak for many, many in the community who, beyond mere words, were touched positively by your husband and your father. Wayne – rest in eternal peace. You left us way too soon. ~ Garry Zetsen

The Bad are classic rockers

By Murray Green

Classic rock band The Bad, with special guests Big Smoke Revival, will be bringing a rock music show to the Bailey Theatre on March 22 at 8 p.m.

The Bad deliver the emotional and passionate rock and roll that singer/songwriter Ryan Olszewski feels is severely lacking in current modern music.

“I know that it is out there, you can find it, but digging for the style of music

I want to hear is getting harder every day,” he said.

The band has been influenced by Bruce Springsteen and Black Rebel Motorcycle Club with a touch of country and folk by Waylon Jennings, Johnny Cash and Ronnie Van Zant.

The Bad comes from a very diverse background.

“We all came from different backgrounds, but we all knew and respected each other well before we decided to give it a go as a band.

After a few rehearsals, we

knew that it was the lineup we’d been looking for,” said Olszewski.

The band consists of Olszewski (guitar/vocals), Nathaniel Noel (guitar/ vocals), Jordan Cunningham (bass) and Tyler Jackson Piercy (drums).

Their debut album Seasons is out and the group plans to showcase the album in the show at the Bailey.

Tickets are available online or at the Bailey Theatre Box Office.

August 5, 1940 ~ March 5, 2016 Kenneth ‘Wayne’ Gaalaas of Camrose passed away peacefully on March 5, 2016 at the age of 75 years.

He will be lovingly missed by his wife, Marlene; son Jeff (Julie); daughter Jill (Colin Grindle); brother Gary (Lois) and sister Diane Burnett of Red Deer; and sister Faye Sollid of Edmonton. Papa will also be sadly missed by grandchildren Cassidy, Olivia, and Leif Gaalaas; Taylor Hancock, and Colby and Austin Grindle.

He is predeceased by his father Orvild Gaalaas and mother Madeleine Bentley; and brothers Allen and Dale Gaalaas.

Wayne was born in Camrose August 5, 1940, the second youngest of 6 children. He married the love of his life, Marlene April 30, 1966. He began his Health Journey shortly after, starting renal dialysis in 1967. Through this time, Wayne was able to begin his own business, Battle River Builders Supply, while traveling to the University of Alberta for treatment. Through the kind generosity of the community and many friends, under the guidance of Ken and Rita Nyback, Wayne was able to start dialysis at home as the first patient in Alberta to do so. It was during this time that Wayne and Marlene were blessed with the births of Jeff and Jill. In 1978, the ultimate gift of life was received from his sister, Faye, when she donated her kidney. This allowed Wayne to spend time with his family while enjoying work, travel, and volunteerism.

Wayne’s health was a big influence on how he lived his life. He was driven to live every day as if it were his last. He loved his work, the people he worked with, and the friends he made along the way.

He sold Home Hardware and retired at the age of 55 feeling that he’d already been living life on borrowed time. He spent the next years living his dream of enjoying golf, traveling, and winters in Arizona. But we all know he never really retired.

Wayne was eternally grateful of the role the community played in his life. He continued to volunteer his time to Uncles at Large, in coaching sports and enjoying many years with the Rotary Club of Camrose. Wayne had a wonderful sense of humor. If you ever played a practical joke on him, you knew to be prepared to be ‘oneupped’ and then some.

Wayne was a wonderful father, husband, and grandfather.

Family was everything to him. The family would like to thank the physicians and nurses at the University of Alberta Hospital transplant team, the Dialysis Unit, Mazankowski Hospital, Cross Cancer Institute, Camrose Home Care, and St. Mary’s Hospital.

At Wayne’s request there will be no public service held. The family would like to express their gratitude for the love and support received during this difficult time. If so desired, donations are gratefully accepted to Stollery Children’s Hospital, The Kidney Foundation of Canada Delsie Holmes (Northern Alberta and the Delsie Holmes of Ministik, Territories), or the Camrose Alberta passed away at the Grey Hospice Society.

Lucille Anna Hansman August 7, 1921 ~ March 6, 2016 Lucille’s parents were John William Hochhausen and Marie Theresa Hochhausen (nee Pflaghaar) and she was the fourth child. Older siblings were Kathleen, Genevieve, Wilfred and younger siblings were Florence, Louis, and Joseph.

Predeceased by her parents John William Hochhausen and Marie Theresa Hochhausen, Kathleen Matheson, George Matheson, Sister Genevieve Hochhausen, Louis Hochhausen, Florence Gamache, Emile Gamache, Joseph Hochhausen, Ruth Hochhausen, sister-in-law Hazel Hochhausen and is survived by brother Wilfred Hochhausen, and sister-in-law Gertrude Hochhausen (Louis). She is survived by her children Roger Hansman (Irene), Bert Hansman (Thiwaporn), Theresa Hansman (Ben Arcand); grandchildren Robbyn Hansman (Jeff Thompson), Clayton Hansman (Kelly Hansman), Poommarin Raymond (Andrew Raymond), Steve Hansman (Brendan Halama); greatgrandchildren Joey Young Hansman, Cheyenne McCrea, Carissa McCrea, Naveya Hansman, Aryanna Hansman, Layla Raymond, Lucas Raymond; great-great-grandchild Harley Young; as well as numerous nieces and nephews and their extended families.

Her teaching career included 31 years in the public and separate school systems, with 16 years in the Provost school district including teaching in Czar, Hughenden, and Provost for the public school. And when teaching in the rural areas in the war years Lucille boarded with local families, and indicated this was a “great experience with very pleasant children”. Lucille taught for two years for the separate school in Provost, as well as 13 years teaching in Camrose, three years doing Early Childhood Services Kindergarten and 10 years teaching grade 6 at Charlie Killiam School for the public school system. This does not include 2-½ years teaching private kindergarten prior to kindergarten becoming part of the school system and, in Lucille’s own words, “a private endeavor, also very delightful”. Also one of her highlights for a year was to teach a class three times a week for refugee children and English as a second language to children from Asia. Most were in Junior High classes and again in her own words, “It was a great experience and I am glad to have had the opportunity to teach these young people.”

Lucille kept busy in retirement with time spent working with the Camrose Senior Centre, special projects such as the Great Alberta Quiz, sharing time with grandchildren, traveling to the east coast, west coast, into the US and the Caribbean.

Use extra caution when people come knocking at your door

By Dan Jensen

Camrose Police Service is encouraging residents to be careful in their dealings with people who come to their door selling a product, or asking for a donation.

“We want to remind people that individuals who are raising money for their organization need to have a notfor-profit licence that they must obtain from the City of Camrose,” said Const. John Fernhout. “If they are selling something they have to have a City of Camrose business licence.”

Const. Fernhout recommends asking anyone who is looking for a donation how much of the money is actually going towards the cause.

“You should be comfortable in knowing that all the money is going towards the organization and that the person who is on your step isn’t pocketing any of it,” he said.

Const. Fernhout also recommends continuing to stay alert even after the canvasser or salesperson shows his or her photo identification and name tag.

“Photos and name tags are usually a pretty good indication that the person is for real, but sometimes they are not,” he said. “There was an example a few years ago where people were going door to door just outside of

Edmonton selling Tim Hortons gift cards as a way to collect money for (what they said) was the Canadian Cancer Society. People would buy $50 cards, only to find out later when they went to buy something, that there was nothing on them. The people had taken the gift cards from the Tim Hortons store or wherever and had found Tim Hortons jackets that they wore to help with their sales pitch. Even scarier, they had an altered credit card machine and were stealing people’s credit card information.”

Const. Fernhout advises against sharing information from gas or electricity bills with people who claim they are from a utility company.

“Often what happens is they will look at your bill, get the information they need from it, whether it is an account or number of what have you, and actually switch things over from your current company to theirs without your permission,” he said. You need to be leery if they say they want to check your rate to see if they can provide you with a better one.”

The officer said residents should never feel pressured to let anyone into their home.

“A lot of alarm companies ask to come into your home and are quite pushy about it.

One complainant indicated she was talking to someone from an alarm company who just talked his way into her home. Just let people know that the house is yours and remember that you can ask them to leave. At the end of the day he or she is still a stranger and you don’t know what his or her true motivation might be.”

Const. Fernhout said people who use their credit card to make a donation are opening themselves up to a host of problems.

“If you are going to donate to what you feel is a good cause give cash. You might lose what you have given them (if they are conducting a scam), but you will just have lost that money once. You are not giving them something that they can access more than one time.”

Anyone who has concerns about door to door salespeople or canvassers is encouraged to call the Camrose Police Service at 780672-4444.

“We will ask the caller what the person is wearing, the last known direction of the person’s travel, and what they are selling or raising money for,” said Const. Fernhout. “Sometimes we can locate them and do our own checks.

By Lori Larsen Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), a technique used in emergencies when someone’s breathing or heartbeat has stopped, can often mean the difference between life or death.

Members of the Camrose EMS staff association are hoping to improve the already vital service they provide to the city by raising funds to purchase three chest compression systems.

“This is a local initiative to raise $45,000 to supply one chest compression system on three ambulances in town, to remain in town,” said Camrose EMS member Pete Jensen.

The first step in CPR involves chest compressions.

Anyone who has ever had to do them, whether during training or in a real life situation, knows it is not only mentally demanding but physically strenuous as well.

For the average person this may never occur in their lifetime, for EMS it occurs more often than not.

“All of our paramedics are very highly trained in emergency situations; it’s where we specialize,” said Jensen. “We re-train (CPR) every year, but it is still a difficult and tiring procedure.”

The chest compression system is a portable device designed to deliver automated, consistent chest compressions to victims of cardiac arrest and improve the overall operation of EMS personnel.

The device distributes effective and consistent chest compressions of 100 per minute at a precise depth of two inches. It allows for equal time of compression and decompression which is imperative in ensuring proper blood flow to the heart.

“It has a suction cup which suctions up the chest and pulls your heart open to allow more blood in,” said Jensen. “Then it pushes it down again. You can’t do that with just your hands” While the device is preforming compressions EMS personnel can focus on other lifesaving procedures such as ventilating the victim, administering essential drugs, preparing and affixing an intravenous, preparing and then shocking victims. As well EMS need to gather information regarding the victim and the onset of the event, and provide compassion to family or friends of the victim.

“It’s hard to give quality compressions when you are doing a number of other important things,” said Jensen. “And if we find ourselves in a situation where we are doing CPR alone it is very difficult.”

The chest compression system delivers uninterrupted compressions.

“It is very difficult when we are in some of the taller

buildings in town that have elevators ,” said Jensen.

“Elevators are not made for stretchers. Patients end up sitting up on a 45 degree angle so we can do compressions and that’s not great.”

Preparing the victim for transport or arranging them in such a manner in order to get the stretcher into an elevator, dealing with other people at the scene or applying other lifesaving procedures sometimes involves the person administering the chest compressions and therefore can result in momentary interruptions.

“There is this feeling of insanity; the elements change every time we (EMS) do CPR. Once this machine is on we can stand up and wipe the sweat off and attend to other things such as administering drugs,” remarked Jensen, on the calming affect the device has in an otherwise chaotic environment.

“The whole atmosphere changes. We now have a second to get our heads about us knowing CPR is being done better than it was before.”

Jensen had an opportunity to work with one of the devices during an assist to a code call in Tofield.

With the use of the chest compression system, ambulance workers can be seated and belted in when in the back of the ambulance.

“Ambulance workers have a high death and injury rate on the job, even higher than firefighters,” said Jensen. “We absolutely can not be restrained when doing CPR.” Having the device performing CPR also removes the physical stress placed on EMS personnel and thus can reduce the amount of injury.

According to the International Archives of Occupational and Environmental Health (2005) and a survey conducted on CPR and back injury in ambulance officers, nearly 25 per cent of ambulance workers suffered back injury, with 62 per cent of those injuries attributed to delivering CPR. Considering all that is involved in an emergency call requiring CPR, the chest compression system would be an invaluable asset, freeing up EMS personnel to attend to other critical duties.

“We (Camrose EMS staff association) are going to be sending out letters campaigning local businesses and corporate sponsors to begin the initiative,” said Jensen.

“It will be a tiered system, so as soon as we have enough money for one we will get one, with a goal of three in total.”

“Testimonials (about the effectiveness of the device) say that victims are having to be sedated during CPR because they are waking up and thrashing. The device is that effective.”

City partners with BRAED on business retention and expansion program

By Lori Larsen

Paul Isaak enlisted the help of a student during a juggling presentation at Charlie Killam School in which he shared an anti-bullying message.

A request by the Battle River Alliance for Economic Development to have the City of Camrose partner in its Growing Business Together Business Retention and Expansion Program was approved by City council Feb. 16.

BRAED is applying to the government of Alberta for Alberta Community Partnership funding but, in order to do so, all municipalities in partnership must pass a resolution supporting their involvement in the project.

“Businesses’ retention and expansion is one of the top priorities of economic development areas in all of Canada,” said Ray Telford, City of Camrose economic development officer.

“The City did a BRE (Business and Retention and Expansion program) in 2013 and again in 2014. Now BRAED is going to be doing a BRE for eastern Alberta, our area, and is applying for a provincial grant that will benefit 29 communities in our area.

“The city does not have to provide any money for the grant just be a partner of the BRE.” BRAED will serve as the project manager, providing financial management support, evaluation and reporting and staff management as required.

The BRE project begins by building internal capacity through the training of local residents and or recent graduates. These members will provide business visitations and support.

“This can be customized to each community participating,” said Margot Bégin, executive director of BRAED. “Here in Camrose where there has already been some work done it may look slightly different in terms of the support that BRAED provides under Ray’s direction.

“The reason we are paying attention to this is because upwards of 80 per cent of economic growth comes from existing business, especially in this current climate. We are going to be able to make sure that they have the tools they need to be able to not only survive, but also expand.”

Along with representatives from Beaver County (manager partner), representatives from the City of Camrose will form an operational steering committee in partnership with BRAED to provide guidance for the project.

More than 6,700 cancer cases can be avoided About 45 per cent of cancer cases in Alberta are linked to a handful of modifiable factors, according to new statistics from Alberta Health Services (AHS).

While it’s no surprise that tobacco remains the leading cause, a significant number of cancer cases in Alberta are related to factors such as not being active enough, unhealthy eating, excess body weight, and alcohol.

“We know we don’t have to wait for new scientific breakthroughs to start reducing cancer rates in Alberta,” said Dr. Verna Yiu, Interim AHS president and CEO. “Our new data shows that we could avoid about 6,700 new cancer cases every year if we work together on a short list of factors we can change.”

These new findings are from the Population Attributable Risk study completed by scientists working with the Alberta Cancer Prevention Legacy Fund (ACPLF) at AHS. The study is the most comprehensive of its kind in Canada and represents the first

time in Alberta that cancer statistics have been broken down to show the impact of the leading lifestyle and environmental risk factors.

“Alberta’s population is continuing to grow,” said Sarah Hoffman, Deputy Premier and Minister of Health. “At the same time, our population is growing older. It’s a combination that is putting increasing pressure on our health system, so it is important to look at some of the factors that are within our control in helping protect our health. Prevention is one of the best tools we have when it comes to reducing the risk of cancer.”

“It’s important to recognize that no diet or lifestyle can promise absolute protection from cancer,” says Dr. Darren Brenner, an AHS epidemiologist who led the project with Dr. Christine Friedenreich, scientific leader for the department of Cancer Epidemiology and Prevention Research within AHS’ CancerControl Alberta.

“We don’t yet know enough to eliminate cancer completely but there are

many proven strategies to greatly reduce the risk.”

The new data, found on www.AlbertaPreventsCancer.ca gives Albertans an opportunity to view a specific cancer type and dig deeper into the lifestyle and environmental factors that are linked to it.

Soon this opportunity will be given to all Canadians.

In November 2014, Drs. Friedenreich and Brenner received a four-year grant from the Canadian Cancer Society Research Institute to expand their study nationally and estimate the relationship between these same risk factors and cancer for each province in Canada.

Avoid exposure

They will estimate how cancer rates will be reduced by changing exposure to these risk factors up to the year 2045.

The study will provide valuable data for cancer prevention and promotion programs across Canada on the number of cancers that could be avoided by changes in lifestyle and environmental exposures.

“When it comes to cancer, people tend to think it’s all a matter of the genes we inherit, or that the list of things that cause cancer is so long and outside our control that it’s not worth bothering. These findings show that’s simply not true,” says Dr. Gerry Predy, senior medical officer of health for AHS. “Even some of the most common cancers – such as breast, lung and colorectal – could be reduced by at least half by targeting the environments and the risk factors we already know about and can change.”

“There is also ample scientific evidence to show that supporting people who have already had cancer to quit smoking, be more physically active and limit alcohol can have a major impact,” adds Dr. Predy.

“Modifying the influences on these factors improves treatment outcomes and reduces the chance of getting a second cancer later on.”

AHS, including the teams at ACPLF and CancerCare Alberta, is working together with work-

places, communities and the Ministry of Health to create environments that make it easier for Albertans to make the healthiest choices they can. Health care providers across the province are also helping to ensure every patient who might benefit is offered appropriate screening tests and effective services to reduce their risk.

“By working together to ensure the places we live, work and play are as supportive as possible to help people reduce risk, we can change the future of cancer in Alberta,” says Dr. Predy.

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.

Ram 1500

Highest customer loyalty of any full size pickup

Amir Sabree

By Dan Jensen

The 2016 Dodge Ram 1500 at Camrose Chrysler enjoys the highest customer loyalty of any full-size pickup.

“It offers numerous best-in-class advantages, segment-exclusive features, bulletproof durability and an unfailing commitment to innovation,” said Camrose Chrysler sales manager Michael Bowman.

Performance

The Ram 1500 delivers unflinching capability with three powerful and capable engines.

The class-exclusive 3.0 litre EcoDiesel delivers bestin-class fuel economy as efficient as 8.0 litres per 100 km and impressive low-end torque that’s also best-inclass.

The engine also delivers 240 horsepower and 420 lb.ft of torque.

The 3.6 litre Pentastar V6, a three time winner of Ward’s Ten Best Engines, uses just 9.3 litres per 100 km highway while producing 305 horsepower and 269 lb.ft. of torque.

The legendary 5.7 litre HEMI V8 with 395 horsepower and up to 4,826 kg of towing capacity is a leader in strength and durability.

Ram 1500’s standard Electronic Stability Control system features Trailer Sway Control which helps stabilize the vehicle against

crosswinds and the buffeting from large truck trailers.

The Tow/Haul Mode varies the shift patterns to adapt performance for ideal towing.

Available front tow hooks that are structurally incorporated in ton the frame provide emergency pull-out capability when helping lesscapable vehicles out of a jam.

Other available features such as the Active-Level Four-Corner Air Suspension System, the integrated Class IV hitch receiver with four- and seven-pin wiring harness, and the responsive electronic Trailer Brake Controller were engineered specifically to help contribute to greater towing confidence and control.

The integrated switch brake that is intuitively located on the centre stack and manages a host of standard and available towing and interior features, including Trailer Brake Controller, ESC system, Tow/Haul Mode, heat and ventilation for seats, heated steering wheel and model of the Active-Level Four-Corner Air Suspension System.

Ideally positioned in the rear bumper well, the standard four- and seven-pin trailer connector keeps the connections far from dirt and debris. Adjacent illumination makes it a breeze to hitch or unhitch a trailer at night.

Providing both pin settings

eliminates the need for an adapter or jumper when hauling different trailer setups.

Four Corner Air Suspension

Ram 1500 lets you master towing, hauling and the off-road with the class-exclusive Active-Level Four-Corner Air Suspension System.

This available system offers five separate modes of operation, keeping your Ram 1500 at the ideal level, maintaining a constant driving profile and ideal headlamp-to-road angle, even while under the heaviest payloads.

Off-road 2 Mode provides impressive ground clearance for the path and trail and generous angles for approach, departure and breakover.

Off-Road 1 Mode provides outstanding ride balance with an extra degree of clearance when off-road scenarios are less severe than Off-Road 2 requirements.

Normal Ride Height offers the most comfortable balance of ride and handling for everyday driving.

Aero Mode automatically lowers the vehicle, reducing aerodynamic drag and body roll and improving fuel efficiency.

Entry/Exit Mode automatically lowers the vehicle for easier entry/exit, loading/ unloading, and trailer hooking/unhooking.

The class-exclusive multilink coil spring rear

suspension is standard on most Ram 1500 models. It’s so durable and comfortable, it’s the preferred technology for railroad coaches and boxcars. The suspension supplies more lateral stiffness and greater vehicle control, and adds to what is an already supremely comfortable ride.

The Borg Warner transfer case, standard on Ram ST, SLT, Outdoorsman and Rebel 4x4 models is ideal for off-road, farm, industrial and leisure activities. It features two speeds with three operating ranges, plus Neutral. It is electronically operated via centre stack-mounted controls.

The two-speed ondemand transfer case offers four operating modes, plus the Neutral position, and features Auto Mode for allweather operation with no driver input required.

Life of luxury

Every Ram 1500 offers a premium level of comfort, state-of-the-art technology and advanced degrees of sophistication. Touches of comfort and convenience are found throughout the lineup with unique trim levels and features that make a lasting impression.

Ram 1500 Laramie, Longhorn and Laramie Limited models deliver classexclusive 100 per cent leather seating, bolstered by leather and real wood accents throughout the cabin, heated

and ventilated front bucket seats and a heated leather wrapped steering wheel with audio controls.

From the oversize indoor bins to the smart behind-the-seat and available in-floor storage, you’ve got a multitude of places to carry equipment and hide valuables.

The fold-flat load floor available on Crew Cab and Quad Cab models provides a convenient flat storage surface, ideal for cargo you’d prefer not to secure in the rear bed.

Each trim level of the 2016 Ram 1500 features a bold instrument panel cluster and interactive in-cluster display centre.

Select Ram 1500 models feature driver-oriented technologies that enhance convenience and promote responsible on-road action. Among them is a full-colour seveninch customizable in-cluster display centre. This multiview display screen features personalized settings for dozens of functions, including media, compass, temperature, fuel economy, trip info, cruise control, trailer braking, vehicle status and engine performance.

You can drive the 2016 Dodge Ram 1500 when you visit Camrose Chrysler on Highway 13 east, Camrose.

Simulation equipment assists training staff Continued from page 31

Simulation equipment and the ability to run high fidelity simulations provides significant benefits for patient care, as well as supporting ongoing staff education and recruitment.

The ability to provide realistic and responsive simulation based practice for staff on our site will help St. Mary’s continue to develop excellence in clinical practice, critical thinking skills, communication and confidence for our front line employees.

The benefits of simulation training for medical professionals have been well established and are reinforced by the associated education research based literature. Both high fidelity (using a computerized simulation system) and low fidelity (non-computerized mannequins and/or human actors) have a proven track record for enhancing clinical skill performance among health care providers. Simulation is used in training/education programs as well as in hospital settings.

Quite simply, the ability to practice complicated, higher risk medical scenarios in a safe learning environment saves patient lives.

The Mega-Code Kelly is a high fidelity simulation system because of the ability to program physiological parameters and responses in the manne-

quin that will vary based upon how the simulation participants respond. This allows the simulated clinical practice to mirror the changes that would occur in a live patient in realtime, creating a realistic but harm-free environment.

The ability for the simulator to demonstrate physiological changes provides immediate feedback to the participant based upon the interventions they make, without the potentially serious consequences that could occur for live patients. As well, simulation can be recorded to provide participants with information about communication patterns, allow reflection on critical thinking skills and building confidence.

Kelly has the capability to demonstrate a variety of physiologic parameters. In addition to our existing equipment, the Mega-Code Kelly system will allow us to provide more realistic and higher acuity clinical scenario practice for St. Mary’s staff and physicians. This has the potential to bring significant benefits to our patients.

Initial training on how to operate the system was completed on Feb. 29. In early March, we will begin offering ongoing simulation training sessions for our clinical staff.

Some Like It Hot jazz concert

By Murray Green

The Camrose Composite High School will be holding its annual Some Like It Hot chili and jazz evening on March 20 beginning at 5 p.m.

Since 1990, the CCHS has blended hot chili with cool jazz in an event sponsored by the CCHS music department and the Music Parent Association. Funds raised are used to provide additional support for

activities of the music program.

The evening begins with a smorgasbord supper featuring various type of chili, buns, beverages, salads and desserts.

Patrons are asked to bring their own cutlery and dishes to be environmentally friendly.

Music follows the dinner with songs from the CCHS Jazz Ensemble, Chorazz! (vocal jazz group)

and some local musicians with Chorazz!

Some Like It Hot started in 1990 to feature the jazz component of the CCHS music program. Due to its popularity with both patrons and students, it has continued as an annual event.

Tickets are available from CCHS music students, the school office and a limited number at the door. Preschool children are admitted free.

Wow! Now that’s a body shop!

“Y

ou know, working with The Auto Shoppe, I get a lot of ‘star treatment’, but sometimes I get complaints, too,” says Jackie Rae, celebrity apprentice.

“The other day I met this fella, and he kept griping, ‘Every time I’m at the Auto Shoppe, you’re never there! Every time!’ I think the real concern is, why is he there so much?

Maybe he just likes the friendly atmosphere!

But listen, if you do get a dent or a scratch, or something more serious, they’ll take great care of you.”

Breaking the code of the Enigma

By Lori Larsen In today’s world of high tech gadgets and the ability to communicate anywhere around the world with the tapping out of a text, the enigma machine may seem a bit archaic. But imagine a machine during the Second World War that was capable of encrypting military and government messages with trillions of different combinations.

Dr. Peter Berg, department chair and professor at the University of Alberta Augustana campus will be presenting the story of that very device, known as the Enigma Machine, at the Jeanne and Peter Lougheed Performing Arts Centre on March 23.

“The story of this event really involves four countries,” said Berg.

Germany was the country responsible for building the Enigma Machine.

Alan Turing, a British computer scientist, mathematician, logician, cryptanalyst and theoretical biologist, was pivotal in cracking the codes used by the Germans in encrypting messages with the Enigma.

Most of the critical captures of enigma parts or code books were completed in Norwegian waters and the 2014 movie The Imitation Game, loosely based on the story of Alan Turing, was directed by Norwegian Morten Tyldum.

Canada is in possession of two (publicly viewed) Enigma machines.

Berg thought Camrose, a Norwegian and Scandinavian based community, would be a fitting location to bring the enigma and do a presentation on how the machine works, how the code was cracked, Alan Turing and how the sto-

Pictured here is an Enigma machine from NTNU (University of Science and Technology) in Trondheim, Norway, used by Peter Berg, University of Alberta Augustana professor and chair for presentations he did while living in Norway.

ry of the machine relates not only on a technological level but on a human interest level as well.

“The fact that the Germans wanted to be doubly sure the enigma was safe, yet allowed the British to crack it, shows it (the story) is also about a human endeavour,” said Berg.

“It is not just a lot of numbers and technology. Apart from the actual war and the tragedy, the operating of the machine and making mistakes has a huge human component.”

Berg’s own life is filled with ironic correlations to the history of this story. He was born in Germany, completed his education in mathematics in England, lived in Norway for three years and now lives in Canada. “My ancestors

built this machine and I take it around doing presentations,” joked Berg.

His accent alone is enough to attract a crowd, but add to that his witty take on the enigma story and his interest in European history and the machine seems to come back to life.

“Being a German in Trondheim where the machine was captured, having a Ph.D. in math similar to the code crackers, and now living in Canada, it is too good to be true,” commented Berg.

After the war the Germans abandoned the massive U-boat bunker located in Trondheim, leaving behind equipment, including the enigma machines. Most of the machines have since been acquired by private owners but some, like the ones in the

Canadian military museums, have been made available for public view.

Berg’s first hands-on experience with one of the machines happened while living in Norway. He discovered the University of Norway was actually storing one of them.

“I located the machine on campus and thought, I am going to take this around and give public talks,” said Berg.

The university granted Berg permission to take the machine off campus and do presentations on its story, recognizing, at the time, the value written in the university books was approximately one krone (16 cents).

“Its real value is in the six figures,” remarked Berg.

“I took it around town and then to Oslo, then around the country,” said Berg.

“It was wonderful.”

Berg came to Augustana in 2015 and lends his expertise and research interest in applied mathematics and theoretical physics to students and the university.

“People asked me if I could do the presentation (on the enigma) again,” said Berg.

“The people of Camrose would enjoy it (the presentation) because some residents were directly affected by the war. But it is also about technology and code cracking and has a lot of modern ties to encrypting and espionage.”

After conducting some research, Berg discovered one of the machines existed at the Military Museum in Calgary (Naval).

Berg contacted the museum requesting the opportunity to have the machine brought to Camrose for a presentation. After some negotiations, including Berg doing the presentation a week later in Calgary, the museum agreed to send a curator with the machine to Camrose for this event.

Computing, science and mathematic students, along with members of the community interested in history, the spy world or the advancement of technology, stand to gain a glimpse into not only the past, but how the past affects the present and future.

“I am a scientist with a great interest in history, especially European,” said Berg.

The evening begins at 6 p.m. with a display of the Enigma Machine, followed by a presentation by Berg at 7 p.m., a question and answer period at 7:45 p.m. and at the showing of the movie, The Imitation Game at approximately 8:15 p.m.

Kodiaks ready for the battle of the bears

By Murray Green

The Camrose Kodiaks and the Olds Grizzlys opened the southern division playoffs will a battle of the bears series.

After netminder Braden Salmond left the Kodiaks for the Western Hockey League, the search was on for another goalie to help out Patrick Gora.

“I can’t say enough positive things about this team and the great hard working players. It is a good opportunity and team to come to after midget hockey. So far, I have adjusted well and everyone has accepted me as part of the team. It has been lots of fun,” said goalie Joey May. “I was excited to get the opportunity to play and when I did, the guys played well in front of me to help me out quite a bit,” said May. “I got a win in my first AJHL start and then when I came in for Gora, the team again played well in front of me.”

May finished the season with three wins in his three games. “All of the games have been real team efforts.

I think I’m playing well because everyone is playing well in front of me,” said May. Camrose completed the regular season with a 3-1 loss to the north division winning Spruce Grove Saints on March 6.

The Kodiaks gave some players a well-deserved night off so they could be completely healthy for the playoffs.

After the Saints grabbed a goal in each of the first two periods, Camrose replied with a marker from Ryan

Joey May has provided the Camrose Kodiaks with solid netminding for the team when called upon in an emergency basis. He was planning on attending the spring camp, but was pressed into action when Braden Salmond moved on to the Western Hockey League.

Rebelato. The last Spruce Grove tally was into an empty net in the evenly played match.

Goalie David Testawich made his debut as a Kodiak by stopping 30 of 32 shots.

Camrose fired 23 on the Spruce Grove net.

May was with the Calgary Royals midget club when he received the

call from Kodiaks general manager and coach Boris Rybalka.

“I was scouted by the Kodiaks throughout the season because they wanted me to attend the spring camp and try for a spot on the team next year. Unfortunately, our team didn’t make the playoffs,” offered May. However, the goalie

quickly turned that into a positive. “Coach Boris called me to see if I was interested in being an emergency back-up goalie for the rest of the season. I jumped at the opportunity to join this organization,” he added.

Cole McBride scored just 21 seconds into overtime to lead the Kodiaks to a 3-2

victory over the Drumheller Dragons on March 5.

McBride opened the scoring in the first and Nelson Gadoury connected on a power play in the second frame.

The Dragons notched the equalizer mid-way through the third to force overtime.

Goaltender May turned away 37 of 39 shots, while Camrose fired 29 shots at the Drumheller net.

“The playoffs are a whole new season and I feel I have been given another chance to play hockey. I had a great season playing for the Royals and it was a lot of fun. When we didn’t make playoffs, I was a little bummed out, so coming up here is a whole different environment. We all bleached our hair for the playoffs and it is a great team builder as we get ready for the long haul.”

The goalie realizes that he is the rookie and he may not see playing time in the playoffs.

“I know I will be spending most of the games on the bench, but I look at it as being fun and being a cheerleader for my teammates,” said May. “I just want to be a good team player. I have no problem with that. I want to be ready to go when the coach needs me. I hope coach Boris liked the way I finished the season off and invites me back next year.”

If needed, game five of the Kodiaks-Grizzlys series will be in Camrose on Wednesday, March 16 at 7 p.m.

Kodiaks Dube named Stewy Stewart Memorial Trophy winner

By Murray Green

Camrose Kodiaks defenceman Jake Dube was named the winner of the 2016 Stewy Stewart Memorial Award.

Alberta Junior Hockey League chairman and Kodiaks board member Greg Wood presented the award to Dube prior to the final regular season game in Camrose.

The Stewy Stewart Memorial Trophy is named in honour of a long-time Calgary area fan who supported hockey at all levels. Stewart died in 1997 and the award was created to honour his support and commitment to the game. It is awarded annually to the AJHL player in the south division that best exhibits the attributes of character, dedication, perseverance, integrity and sportsmanship.

Dube recorded a career high 35 points in the regular season and is among the top 10 in scoring among all AJHL defencemen. The 19-year-old defenceman from Cochrane is in his third junior season, fol-

lowing two seasons with the Okotoks Oilers.

The coaching staff of the Camrose Kodiaks nominated Jake for the Stewy Stewart Memorial Award. Along with a nomination, each applicant is required to submit an essay, which outlines his experience applying the attributes of character, dedication, perseverance, integrity and sportsmanship.

“I would like to thank my coaches, Boris Rybalka and Doug Fleck, for nominating me for this award,” said Dube in his letter. “It is a huge honor when coaches put forward a player’s name for an award that represents passion for the game. As Canadians, we all identify with the game and it brings us together as a nation. The game of hockey also provides us with an abundance of life lessons and helps shape who we are on and off the ice. I know, that because of hockey and all of the experiences that go with it, I am a better person. I have my parents, grandparents, brother,

coaches, and teammates to thank for this.”

He thanked his parents. “My parents, for example, have always reminded me that I am never too big because I play a game. I was once the small kid who idolized older hockey players, whether they were local junior B players or players in the NHL. I cherished any opportunity I had to make any type of connection, no matter how small, to those older players.”

That defines him now.

“In terms of character, I always keep in mind that some minor hockey player might look up to me. As a result, I always make a point to go out of my way to make some sort of connection with kids. I am not comparing myself to Sidney Crosby by any means, but I will always remember the day I got his autograph. He stayed so long after practice to sign autographs that the bus back to the hotel left without him.

That memory has stuck with me to this day.

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.

Footloose play review Continued from page 17

Footloose, then, is an energetic romp that does not disappoint. From the opening of the barn doors to the last victory dance, the audience is drawn into a world of emotional upheaval, teenage drama and the pain inherent in coping with death, rejection and bereavement all presented with a down home helping of country choreography courtesy of choreographer, Natalie McGill.

The music is enhanced by the presence of the Country

Kickers Band, a live band sitting stage left. While some actors struggled with their songs and the balance between vocals and volume was sometimes an issue, it was still time well spent! As with all productions of this size, an inestimable number of hours are required to create such an enthusiastic, high intensity musical. Congratulations to the cast and crew as your hard work was evident! Everybody should “cut loose” and dance on over to see this production.

Dube wins Continued from page 39

“My coaches, Boris and Doug, have also taught me a great deal about character.

It is the little things they do like helping the team pack the bus and bag skating with us during practice that helps define their character.”

Dube has had good role models. “To me, the way they carry themselves on and off the ice exemplifies character and I try to emulate them as much as I can. My grandparents passed on to me the spirit of volunteering. Now because of them, I try to get out into the community as much as possible. One of my favorite places to go is the learning assistance class at the school my mom works at.

I look forward to spending time with these kids because their positive nature is contagious.”

Dube and his brother always strive to be the hardest working players on their respective teams. “To be the hardest working player on my team, means working hard on and off the ice. I am extremely dedicated to my training regimen and I don’t make excuses to not work out. I want to improve my game as much as possible.

To achieve this, I shoot pucks off ice and train every day. I also believe you play as you practice so I always strive for 100 per cent effort every time I practice. I never take ice time for granted,” said Dube.

“My parents always taught me that integrity means doing the right thing when no one is watching. I always try to make myself a better person by making good choices. I respect my coaches for how much integrity they have. I always ask myself what they would have done in certain situations to help guide my decisions. Respect is also a big part of having integrity. It is especially important to be respectful in the situation we are in as hockey players. We need to be respectful to many different people involved in the sport from billet parents, to coaches, referees and other teams. My hope is to always leave a positive impression with all the people that I have crossed paths with inside the hockey community.”

His perseverance came into play last year when he broke his hand twice during the season. “One doctor told me that it could be career ending. During the off season and rehab I drove myself extra hard so that my hand would not prevent me from continuing my hockey career.

I have to thank my coach, Boris, for giving me a second chance. When I got traded to Camrose, I regained my passion for the game and made a pledge to myself that I would do everything I could to help contribute to the Kodiaks’ success. I was so grateful for the opportunity they gave me and I wanted to give back in some way. I decided the best way

4925-48 Street Camrose, AB T4V 1L7 to accomplish this was to work as hard as I could and to take in every piece of advice the coaches gave me,” he explained.

“For me, sportsmanship doesn’t just apply to my opposition. It also applies to my teammates and the community. I want to lead by example and be a good role model. I want fans to respect me for my sportsmanship on and off the ice.

It is important to me that young hockey players look up to me for the right reasons. If I model good behavior on the ice, that might pass down to kids in minor hockey. It is also important to me to be an ambassador for the Kodiaks and sportsmanship plays a huge part in that.

I want Camrose fans and the community to be proud of the Kodiaks so I try to be a positive member of the community. The training centre has been a big part of my connection to the community. I really enjoy the opportunity to pass on some of my knowledge of hockey to the younger players.”

Memorial awards are always bitter-sweet. “You never take these awards for granted because you know you are honoring someone’s memory. Win or lose, I am proud to be nominated and I hope I can honor Stewy Stewart’s commitment to the game through my actions on and off the ice,” concluded Dube.

Camrose 2016 census goes online

By Lori Larsen Camrose residents are once again asking to stand up and be counted during the 2016 municipal census, only this year citizens are encouraged to complete the census online.

“The changes we are making to our census this year are very exciting because it is the first time we are going to be using an online census,” said deputy city manager Kim Isaak, to council members at the Committee of Whole meeting on March 7.

Councillor Agnes Hoveland inquired about the residents who may not have access to a computer or other technology or may not desire to complete the census online.

Isaak replied, “We will have a way of tracking (who has not submitted). Enumerators will collect census information from people who have not submitted online.”

The city is working with Camrose Public Library to arrange for a computer to be set up throughout the census period for residents to use if they wish to complete their census online. The city is also looking at setting up a computer at city hall for residents who do not have access to one.

“The PINs (individual numbers assigned to each household) will be delivered door-to-door,” said Isaak.

“This is a very time consuming requirement but there really wasn’t any other option, due to the fact that we have so many renters. If we just send them (PINS) out they may not make it to the actual owners.”

PIN deliveries will commence on March 21 with an anticipated completion to all doors by April 1, the starting date for the census.

The census form will be available through a link on the city website.

A federal census will also be administered starting on May 1, not to be confused with the municipal census being completed by Camrose from April 1 to May 31.

“We will advertise to try and clear up any confusion,” said Isaak. “They are both very important but they are two separate censuses.”

The municipal census provides accurate population counts that assist with grant funding, short and long term planning for city services, such as transportation, roads, fire protection, police services, utilities, recreation and provide vital information to school boards and potential businesses.

Trade show has something for everyone Camrose had a successful trade show on March 11 to 13. From left to right clockwise, Amber Marshall (middle) star of CBC’s show Heartland was a hit when she signed autographs for Levi, Jamie, Randi and Robin Severson. Sheldon Smithens, co-star of Canadian Pickers amused the audience with his anecdotes about filming the television show. Three-year-old Brooklyn Enright seems right at home behind the wheel of one of the off road vehicles displayed at the CRE. Sixyear-old Nevaeh Huntus of Camrose couldn’t resist giving Bullwinkle, an African Zebu bull a quick brushing.

A skate through time ice carnival

What is Camrose Now! ?

By Lori Larsen

If you have ever imagined what it would be like to board a time machine and take a voyage back through history, then an outing to the Camrose Skating Club’s annual Ice Carnival may be just what you need to find out.

This year’s carnival features over 100 local skaters aged three-years-old to adult and the Rusty Blades synchronized team, performing a medley of routines all revolving around a time warp theme.

“The theme for our carnival is time warp,” said Crystal Koch, CANskate coordinator.

“We will be travelling through time from the dinosaurs and ahead to the future.

“Our carnival is a time for our skaters to show what they have learned throughout the season and have fun doing it,” said Koch.

“Wild Rose Co-op has sponsored our carnival this season,” added Koch.

For a “cool” trip through time and to enjoy seeing the fruits of the Camrose Skating Club’s labour, join them at the annual Ice Carnival on March 19 from 1 to 3 p.m. at the EnCana Arena located at the Camrose Recreation Centre.

There will also be a 50/50 draw and silent auction with all proceeds going to the Camrose Skating Club.
