Centra Cam says thanks to recyclers By Lori Larsen

Households can become overrun with cardboard boxes, paper, plastic and all sorts of “waste”, but the definition of waste is relative. If it can be reused, reduced, repurposed or recycled then it is no longer waste. Centra Cam Recycle Depot staff have noticed an increase in the amount of people recycling. The depot experienced a one per cent increase of shipped recyclables in 2015 versus the previous year. “I think because of the two bag limit in town recycling itself has actually gone up,” said Nola Johnston employee of Centra Cam Recycle Depot. “The little things like newspapers that used to go in the garbage are being recycled.” The amount of plastic being recycled has increased as well, which is creating a bit of a challenge for Centra Cam when it comes to shipping it away. “We have to look at where we can ship it or find somebody to take it,” said Johnston. “They (contacts for accepting recycled plastic from Centra Cam) are being overwhelmed; they don’t realize how much people use plastic containers. “We’re stockpiling right now, which isn’t good because our yard is getting smaller and smaller. “So we are trying to reduce, reuse and recycle items. “We remove glass jars; the Hutterites take the big ones and the canning jars we sell at our store. We take out some big plastic containers, especially if they have lids, as well as plastic buckets of any size if they are in good shape.” One could say Centra Cam Depot employees are the master recyclers. The depot accepts #1, #2, #3, #5, #7 plastics, books, boxboard, corrugated cardboard, magazines and catalogues, phone books, office waste paper, newspaper, clear glass containers, tin cans, computer paper, computers, printers, televisions, fluorescent tubes (no spiral bulbs), nonrechargeable batteries, and paint (household). Paint is accepted all year as long as it has a brand name label on it, not just the plain tin,” explained Johnston. “We also take spray paint, but that is the only aerosol we take.” There are 13 employees, full and part-time, working at the depot keeping up with the continuous job of sorting, shredding, packing, tracking and baling recyclables. “It is very busy until

Lori Larsen, Camrose Booster Recycling with Centra Cam Depot celebrated the Camrose residents’ overwhelming efforts to recycle, reduce and reuse on April 21 during Recyclers’ Appreciation Day. Jeff Smith, employee of Centra Cam keeps the conveyor belt filled with cardboard as it heads up to the compactor.

February, then it slows down a bit which gives us time to catch up on all the other things we can’t do all the rest of the year,” said Johnston. “But that depends on weather. If the weather stays nice it may not slow down at all.” The fact that the depot is busy is a sign that people may be realizing the effect waste has on our communities, environment, water systems and land. Every Albertan discards about a ton of waste annually. One ton of waste occupies approximately 1.5 to 2.5 cubic metres of space – about the size of a standard refrigerator. Without recycling those numbers would equate to approximately four million “refrigerators” sitting in landfills, each year. If not for the diligence of Camrose residents recycling waste and the continuous work done by Centra Cam, the Camrose landfill site would have run out of room a few years ago. Buried waste does not decompose because it does not receive air and water. This results in leachate

draining into our ground water systems and the creation of greenhouse gases such as methane or carbon dioxide. According to Environment and Climate Change Canada, landfill sites account for 20 per cent of the national methane emissions. Practicing alternatives to waste disposal has and will continue to impact our environment in positive ways. We can all play a role in reducing the amount of waste ending up in landfills by simply following the 3 Rs. Reduce

Reducing the amount of waste each of us throws away daily is one of the most effective steps. Use both sides of a piece of paper. Pack lunches in a reusable container. Rent instead of purchasing. Avoid packaged items such as food. Purchase items produced from recycled goods. Reduce packaging. Where possible use an item more than once.

Reuse

Reusing an item gives another life to those resources used to make it in the first place and reduces the amount of energy used to manufacture another one. Purchase products that can be repaired or stand the test of time. Use cloth reusable shopping bags. Reuse containers that can be thoroughly washed/ sterilized. Purchase used

Donate old glasses to non-profit organizations such as OneSight or some optometrist offices. Donate used computers, printers to schools. “Upcycle” involves reusing and recycling. Clothing such as wedding dresses, can be refurbished. Share or exchange. Baby clothing that gets very little use could be handed down or over. Use consignment organizations to sell used goods instead of throwing them away or simply donate them to charitable organizations. Recycle

If waste can not be

reused or reduced then recycling may be an option. Nearly two thirds of Canadians have access to recycling. Alberta has over 360 municipal collection sites where items such as televisions, computer monitors, electronic notebooks, printers, cables, CPUs, keyboards, can be dropped off free of charge. Since these programs first began over seven million units have been recycled. That is seven million fewer electronics in our landfills. Units are dismantled and the parts, including, glass, metal and plastic, are shipped to manufacturers and made into new products. Since 1992 over 95 million car tires have been recycled. Some are used to make playground surfaces. Cellular phones are used by millions of people world wide and 96 per cent of the material in mobile devices is recyclable, yet only 12 per cent are being recycled in Canada. Recycling or purchasing items made of recycled material is another way of conserving and protecting our resources. Use local recycle services. At work or school set up recycle programs. Use a portable shredder or shredding service. Recycle in the garden by composting organics such as food scraps, leaves, grass, and yard trimmings. When purchasing items consider what the packaging is made of. Are the items made of renewable resources and can the packaging and items be recycled? Recycle batteries. There are free collection sites in many places in Canada. Some sites will only accept re-chargeable batteries but do not throw non-rechargeable batteries in the trash. Check municipal and provincial websites to locate recycling sites that will accept them. “Call 2 Recycle” is an organization that collects cellular phone batteries. They have placed drop boxes off in numerous recycling depots, retail locations, non-profit offices and community centres. To locate a drop off box, type in your location on Call 2 Recycle’s interactive map. So, before you throw that item into a trash bag to be put on the curb for garbage pickup, think about your options and how they will affect not only this generation but many generations to come.

Weekend filled with rides for the entire family

Take home a top performer.

By Lori Larsen

If you enjoy being turned upside down, spun vertically, twirled at high velocities and soaring down a 90 foot slide then downtown Camrose is the place to be on June 3 and 4 for the Jaywalkers’ Jamboree. Camrose welcomes back West Coast Amusements and their thrilling rides including an all time favourite, the Zipper. “This year West Coast Amusements is moving their 90 foot all-ages slide to the north end of town,” said Chamber executive director Sharon Anderson. “The north end will look a little different this year and we’re going to have Echo Bungee Jump returning to thrill attendees. Small children can not get on all rides so they need to check the size charts.”

Bowl for the green returns for another year at Jaywalkers By Lori Larsen

The Camrose Booster and Hauser Home Hardware Building Centre are once again teaming up to test your skills and or luck, in bowling during the Bowl for the Green held on Main Street June 3 and 4 during the Jaywalkers’ Jamboree. Bowl for the Green 2016 will give jaywalkers an opportunity to try to roll a “bowling ball” through a hole surround-

ed by professionally-designed art work of bowling pins at the end of a nearly 100-foot-long bowling lane. The event will take place just south of Shuman Insurance. Those who are successful in getting a strike will earn a spot in the final bowl-off on Saturday afternoon, where the grand prize will be $1,000, spendable at any business or organization, which placed an advertisement in the special

Jaywalkers’ Jamboree Super Booster. “We know from experience Bowl for the Green is an exciting and fun event,” said the Camrose Booster associate publisher Ron Pilger. ‘There isn’t another event at Jaywalkers’ Jamboree that allows you test your skill and your luck and enjoy yourself, regardless of your age, for such little cost. “More luck than skill is

required to win this event but some people really do work on their technique which seems to work for them,” noted Pilger. Bowl for the Green is a great way to wear off some of those calories from all the fair food all the while raising money for community groups. All proceeds from the 2016 Bowl for the Green will go to the Battle River Community Foundation.

The Battle River Community Foundation was established as a means of carrying out donors wishes by supporting not-for-profit community initiatives in arts, culture, education, health and recreation. By investing the permanent endowment funds the income created is made available annually to charities throughout the Battle River area.

Grateful Granny experiences benefits of giving By Lori Larsen

Fran Reed, co-chair of the Grateful Grannies, traveled to Uganda for the first Uganda National Grandmothers Gathering to experience for herself how funds raised by Stephen Lewis Foundation benefit African grandmothers caring for orphaned grandchildren and others affected by HIV/AIDS. The gathering, held in Entebbe, hosted approximately 500 grandmothers from across Uganda who were joined by grandmothers from Kenya, South Africa, Canada and the UK. Over the three days of the gathering the Ugandan grandmothers participated in workshops, discussing crucial issues affecting their lives, the lives of the grandchildren they care for and their communities. As representatives of the Stephen Lewis Foundation Grandmothers to Grandmother Campaign, the role for the grandmothers/grandothers from Canada was that of guests. They were there to observe and learn more about the struggles, but more importantly, triumphs of the grandmothers they support. The attendance of the 21 Canadian grandmothers/ others, along with others outside of Uganda brought international attention, thus expanding awareness of this cause. “They were all happy and so excited to be there. They wanted to thank us over and over,” remarked Fran. “They understood who we were (representatives from the Stephen Lewis Foundation) and that this was the group that helped fund their house or school fees for their orphaned grandchildren. “They were so grateful they wanted to hug us and shake our hands and have their picture taken with us.” Highlights of the trip were plentiful. Guests were inspired by the beautifully tailored dresses worn by each Ugandan grandmother, entertainment provided by orphans and the constant appreciation shown by the Ugandan grandmothers. The most gratifying moments for Fran involved tours of two of the Ugandan grandmothers’ homes that were funded by the Stephen Lewis Foundation.

Fran Reed, second from left, poses with some of the Ugandan grandmothers during the first Uganda National Grandmothers Gathering held in Entebbe in 2015.

The first home on the tour belonged to a Ugandan grandmother supporting her orphaned grandchildren by selling water to her neighbours from a pipe located outside her house. She welcomed the guest grandmothers into her small sparsely furnished home with open arms of gratitude. The second home on the tour belonged to another Ugandan grandmother who supported her four orphaned grandchildren by crushing fist-sized rocks into thumbsized gravel with a hammer. “She didn’t have much furniture: four straight chairs and a table,” commented Fran. “But she told us the Stephen Lewis Foundation bought those chairs in her home (a house the size of the small bedroom). “She was so thrilled she now had a concrete floor which used to be mud and a tin roof which used to be straw.” The home was equipped with metal bars and a heavy steel door, most likely to prevent theft, a common occurrence in impoverished areas. Ground representatives from the Stephen Lewis Foundation review project requests made by CBOs

(Community Based Organizations) for funding. Once the project is deemed as viable it is given the okay to proceed. The progress is monitored by a ground representative until completion, at which time the Stephen Lewis Foundation is notified. The CBOs keep meticulous bookkeeping records retaining every receipt so the foundation is aware of every dollar spent on the project. The finances have not only funded homes for Ugandan grandmothers supporting orphaned grandchildren but also medical clinics throughout the country and provided vital medication needed to fight HIV/AIDS. Fran described some of the concerns faced by the Ugandan grandmothers, aside from raising their orphaned grandchildren. “The law says they (grandmothers) should be able to inherit their land. But nobody acts on it, so if a husband dies, his brother(s) or father or another male relative can come take that land. It is not much land, maybe a small patch to grow a garden on but the relatives can come and take it,” explained Fran. Land grabbing, as it is

referred to in Uganda, occurs often and can leave the grandmothers with nothing and no where to live to raise their grandchildren. Ten to 15 years ago, Ugandan grandmothers would have been cared for by their own children. As a result of the pandemic of HIV/ AIDS, those children passed away leaving their children in the care of the grandparents/ mothers. “There were no such things as pensions or seniors’ homes,” said Fran. “But they are excited now because it is far better than it was 15 years ago. “With the help of CBOs and the Stephen Lewis Foundation things have improved a little bit. “The grandmothers are stronger. They are learning to farm and sew or whatever. They are physically in better shape than they were because of the medicine and food. “Now they are in a new phase they’re ready to assert their rights.” The grandmothers are becoming educated on fending for themselves and their grandchildren, preparing wills and their rights to pensions and retaining their

land. Education that otherwise would not have been available to these women had it not been for the generosity of volunteers in Uganda but also in Canada and now the UK and Australia. Fran commented on the unimaginable poverty she witnessed during her visit. The excitement and joy these grandmothers showed over the smallest of gifts and possessions far outweighed any feelings of sorrow or despair she had for them. “The excitement, the cohesion. They are together and they know with all these sisters they can fight. They are learning to stand up and be counted,” she said. When asked about her most vivid memory of her visit to Uganda, Fran recalled the grandmother from the second house tour pointing to her new concrete floor and exclaiming, “Look at my floor, look at my floor.” Generous donations made in Camrose when purchasing one of a variety of the crafts made by Grateful Grannies members may be the next $10 that supports another concrete floor or tin roof or the medicine that changes or saves a life in Uganda.

Mirror Lake Express rides

By Lori Larsen

Jeppa the little engine will be pulling the Mirror Lake Express around again this year during the Jaywalkers’ Jamboree. The runs will take place on the Mirror Lake trail from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. on both Friday June 3 and Saturday June 4. The Mirror Lake Express has been operating during special events around central Alberta for many years and is made possible through the dedication of people who donate their time over the summer. The Express participates in giving rides over 40 times a year including the Big Valley Jamboree parade. The late Jeppa Danielson, a cabinet maker by trade, created the Mirror Lake Express, which took close to 14,000 hours to build. Along with Jeppa the engine, there are four passenger cars, two grain cars (all equipped with seating) and a caboose. In total the train measures 93 feet long. Children of all ages will delight in the sight of the train chugging along and the sound of the train whistle as it makes its way along the run carrying passengers on a journey of the past of old steam engines.

Treat yourself to specialty foods at Jaywalkers By Lori Larsen

Who doesn’t love fair food? Corn-on-the-cob dripping in butter, hotdogs and hamburgers hot off the barbecue and sticky sugary candy floss. With a plethora of eating choices, the Camrose Jaywalkers’ Jamboree is sure not to disappoint fair foodies. Kicking off this year’s Jaywalkers’ Jamboree festivities will be the pancake

breakfast sponsored by OPT held on Friday June 3 from 7 to 9 a.m. and Saturday June 4 from 7:30 to 9:30 a.m. The breakfast will be located on the south side of Candler Art Gallery (50th Street and 50th Avenue). All proceeds from the breakfast are used to support the Camrose and District Chamber of Commerce activities held throughout the year.

“Starbucks will be providing coffee and juice,” said Sharon Anderson Chamber of Commerce executive director. Other delicious options for refueling include not-forprofit groups and churches’ fare and, of course, the famous firefighters corn-onthe-cob. “There will be our incredible Main Street businesses and enough food

vendors to guarantee the “10-pound mile,” remarked Anderson. “If you eat at each one, it’s a given you’ll gain 10 pounds.” However, those 10 pounds will be short lived as attendees walk up and down Main Street taking in all there is to offer, downtown businesses, street vendors, an array of entertainment and the exciting West Coast Amusement rides.

downtown By Lori Larsen

Camrose Jaywalkers’ Jamboree has been showcasing beautiful downtown Camrose for over 50 years and some of the businesses downtown have been taking part since day one. Duff Layton’s Men’s Wear, located in the heart of downtown since 1949, has proudly taken part in the Jaywalkers’ Jamboree since its inception in 1958. “It’s a huge event that I think everyone in downtown Camrose should recognize,” remarked Dan Olofson, owner of Duff Layton’s Men’s Wear. “What it does for the image of the downtown is very important. With just a little effort the return is huge.” Downtown businesses reap the benefits of hundreds of people from not only the City, but surrounding areas, flooding the streets eager to enjoy the excitement of the Jamboree and discovering the uniqueness of downtown shops and businesses. “We want everyone to participate,” said Olofson. “Then it looks like the local people are taking the initiative. We take a pretty aggressive approach to it and the return is very rewarding.” With this year’s theme being the 70s, Olofson was a little unsure what persona his store would take. “It will be interesting to see if anybody can still fit into their clothes (from that era),” smiled Olofson. “It really was a lost decade for clothing, it was too ugly, but now it is fun.” Attendees will have to wait and see what surprises may lay in store. On a more serious note Olofson wanted to thank the Chamber for their continued support and interest in making the Jamboree a success. “Over that last couple of years they have secured very credible vendors and created a better image of the carnival that is here that weekend. “There is newer equipment and it is more modern, brighter, cleaner and that is very much appreciated.” Olofson also expressed his appreciation to the public for the response to the event indicating it seemed to get bigger every year. “The question is where do we go from here?” asked Olofson. “How do we make it better? It has been very successful for this many years. It may be hard to keep the interest up.” Olofson mentioned the event will likely gear towards a younger crowd, which in his words is refreshing. “There is a new group of youth every year that want to take part in it and then they drag mom and dad along with them.” Olofson’s only wish list included some more gardening or home improvement businesses showing their wares and providing information and, of course, good weather.

The JAYWALKERS’ JAMBOREE SUPER BOOSTER, May 31, 2016 – Page 16

Augustana helping children get outside this summer By Sabrina Andrews “Go Play Outside!” – a phrase many remember hearing from our parents. For most of them this was the solution to childish fighting, whining, and boredom. So we rode our bikes, built forts and played pretend. This is where we learned about architecture, ecology, physics, and politics. We made new friends, got our exercise through exploring the neighbourhood, and most importantly gave our parents a small reprieve! iPads and Netflix are the modern forms of ‘playing’ and a convenient way to distract the kids. Unfortunately, through the attempt to avoid environmental risk we are inadvertently creating risky lifestyles. The 2015 ParticipACTION Report

Summer camps hosted by University of Alberta Augustana Campus feature outside play for children to encourage healthy living.

Card on Health titled “The Biggest Risk is Keeping Kids Indoors” included a position statement on the importance of outdoor play for kids. It notes that sedentary behaviours in children increase the odds of developing long-term illnesses, both physical and mental. Kids need to play out-

side more and with screens less. By taking part in adventurous learning programs, children benefit by developing the skills and confidence to navigate their world while parents are assured they are safe, supervised and learning. In 2015, University of Alberta’s Augustana Cam-

pus launched JrU summer camp programs. The camps draw on the expertise of university staff to create fun, educational programming for kids. Back for a second year, the programs include four Outdoor Education programs, one of which includes an overnight experience (Adventurers) and another a

partnership with the Music Conservatory (Earth’s Song). The JrU camps promote adventuresome play and a connection to campers’ local environment. When Jessie Veronelly was asked what her favorite part of leading a photography camp (WildTech) was, she commented that it was “seeing through the eyes of the campers. I love their sense of exploration and excitement.” Small camp sizes, typically 16 kids, allow the leaders to customize the camps to meet the needs of the campers. Veronelly noted that “last year it was so hot in August so we re-adjusted the schedule for Explorers so that we could spend extra days canoeing, since the campers had so much fun doing it.” Continued on page 24

Augustana making changes in school year By Dan Jensen

The school year is going to start looking a little bit different at the Augustana Campus of the University of Alberta. “Our faculty, to their credit, had the courage to question tradition, specifically the normal term or semester structure, which requires that students take five courses at a time in order over four years to meet the requirements for graduation,” said Dean Allen Berger in his report to the community at Augustana’s Spring Soiree April 26. “This structure spreads students very thin and offers very little flexibility. In its place we will be adopting a hybrid calendar that includes a combination of three-week blocks during which students will take only one course, maybe on campus, maybe at the Miquelon Lake Research Station, or maybe in another country, and 11-week sessions, not unlike what some universities on a quarter system have, during which students will register for three to four courses.” “Over time we will also develop a three-week block to end the school year.” The new rhythm will provide all students access to intense and immersive learning experiences, combined with more traditional courses, and allow faculty to connect their traditional courses to intense and immersive experiences that introduce traditional courses or that provide opportunities for focused follow-up research, creative projects and travel. Seminar course

Augustana will also require every student to enrol in a first year seminar or FYS course in the fall block. “The FYS’s, each of which will be a three-credit, discussion-based class focused on a particular topic,

University of Alberta Augustana Campus Dean Allen Berger addresses the community at the Spring Soiree.

will share the common goal of equipping students with the skills needed for academic success at the university level,” said dean Berger. “By the end of the course we hope that students will recognize that they need to be full partners in their own education, not passive participants waiting for their brains to be filled with knowledge by expert professors, and also that deep learning occurs most often not through solitary effort, but through teamwork and engagement with diverse groups of peers.” The FYS course will be offered over a three-week period of time. “It will be the first course that new students take and it will be their only course during this time,” said Dean Berger. “The intensity is particularly important, as we want students to engage in depth

with a topic, a faculty member and their peers without other academic obligations or distractions. We also want them to bond with other new students who are going through the same experience.” Gaining momentum

Augustana is hoping the FYSs courses and the new academic calendar will help with the development of a MAP (My Academic Program) and a Pathways program. “MAP represents a much more individualized and value-added approach to academic advising that is less about helping students check off the boxes required to meet degree requirements and more about assisting students building, and, over time, revising and updating their own personalized holistic plans,” said Dean Berger.

“Such plans might include, in addition to formal on-campus courses, participation in campus clubs and organizations, communitybased service, educational travel, internships, leadership opportunities, etc. Now also imagine that students are supported with advanced software tools to find creative and compelling ways to package these diverse experiences and share them as electronic portfolios with potential employers and admissions committees in graduate schools and professional schools. This is the MAP vision.” The Pathways program is intended to provide greater support by connecting students to post-graduate paths. “I foresee two primary ways of doing this,” said Dean Berger. “The first is through collaboration with

other U of A faculties. We are already placing Augustana students in a joint degree program with the Faculty of Education and in Camrose-based graduate and after degree programs in Physical Therapy and in Nursing. A full-blown Pathways program would add additional pathways into the teaching field, into the health professions, into law and into other professions. Most importantly, I believe Augustana should focus on pathways that lead back to needed careers in rural and Aboriginal communities. Not all students will make these choices, many for very good reasons, but I believe as the University of Alberta’s only nonurban campus we have a special obligation to make these opportunities visible, attractive and realistic.” The new Pathways program is one that will likely require donor support. “My vision is to be able to place enrolled students, especially students who come to Augustana from rural and Aboriginal communities, in paid summer internships and applied research assignments back in their hometowns or in similar communities,” said Dean Berger. “Rural and Aboriginal municipalities, not-for-profit organizations, community agencies and also local businesses could help design and host these experiences. My hope is that if students undertake meaningful work in these settings, if they make valuable contributions as a part of their undergraduate studies, then they may be drawn back and they will graduate with the kinds of relationships and personal connections that might lead to attractive job offers. In other words, I believe Augustana has a special obligation to demonstrate to our students that Thomas Wolfe was wrong, you can go home again.

Camrose hosts interclub 4-H sale By Murray Green

The Camrose District 4-H Beef Interclub Show and Sale showcases beef project members from clubs in Armena, Bashaw, Camrose, New Norway and Rosalind at the Camrose Regional Exhibition on June 7. Things get started early in the morning with members washing and grooming their projects, so that the ani-

mals look their best in the show ring. The show starts with female classes (a heifer class, two year old cow/calf, three year old cow/calf and mature cow/calf) beginning at 11 a.m. Market steer projects follow the female show. Members have worked to get their steers ready for this event since last fall. The parade of clubs and awards will begin at 5 p.m.

There are about 50 market steer projects. Following the awards, a sale of these projects will begin at 7 p.m. A highlight will be the auctioning of a charity steer project with proceeds flowing through the Battle River Community Foundation to the Stollery Childrens’ Hospital. “The 4-H event continues to be successful because of generous corporate sponsors,

local businesses and individuals who purchase member cattle projects,” said Sonia Berg, just one of the many volunteers. Everyone is encouraged to support 4-H members by bidding on an animal. Successful bidders can have arrangements made for the animal to be delivered for processing for personal use, or include their purchase in the buy-back program.

Jaywalkers stands the test of time By Lori Larsen

Jaywalkers’ Jamboree has been giving Camrose business community an economic boost since it first began on June 20 and 21, 1958. “It was an instant hit,” said the late Bill Fowler, founder of The Camrose Booster and member of the planning committee that had been charged by then Camrose Chamber of Commerce president Dr. Hamp Smith with the task of either revitalizing the annual fall festival or shutting it down and doing something else. The Jamboree attracted attendees by offering two free rides for each child with additional rides at a cost of five cents and hosting trade booths where a person could purchase almost anything from a refreshing lemonade to steers or hogs. Suddenly businesses were experiencing an increase in exposure and began offering sales and specials to add to the excitement. According to F.W. Woolworth then manager Don Beebe, business was so successful on the Friday afternoon the Canadian Bank of Commerce ran out of $1 bills. The second Jaywalkers’ Jamboree, held on June 19 and 20, 1959 was broadcast by CFCW radio station from a mobile unit perched in front of Champion’s Bakery and, despite uncooperative weather of heavy rain, the event was still considered a success. The third Jaywalkers’ Jamboree was billed in an advertisement in the June 21 edition of The Camrose Booster as being more fun than a far eastern bazaar, as well as a unique experience in shopping pleasure. “There is more participation in every respect than ever before,” said Fowler in his weekly column, Bits, Binds and Baloney. “The event will be more colourful and interesting than ever.” The 1963 Jamboree included wild animal displays from Al Oeming’s Game Farm, a large auction held by the Lions, square dancing, lucky draws, games of chance, home baking and bargains galore. A new and innovative feature at the 1966 Jamboree was Jamboree jackpot. Jaywalkers could purchase coupons at 25 for $1 then select a prize of their choice allowing them to deposit as many coupons as they wanted into that particular merchant’s draw barrel. In 1967, and in celebration of Canada’s 100th birthday Jaywalkers dressed in centennial costumes. A grand jackpot prize of 200 silver dollars was given by the Camrose Chamber of Commerce. CFCW sponsored a world championship kobasa-eating contest at the 1973 Jamboree including free rides in the Kobasa Chuckwagon for children under the age of 12.

Truck inspections keep roads safe in County By Murray Green

The Camrose County Truck Inspection at the east side of Wild Rose Co-op card lock reported lower numbers, March 29 and 30. “The numbers were down, but I have to say it was successful. Camrose County would like to thank those farmers who still participated in our annual farm truck inspection,” said Mike Kuzio, manager of County Protective Services.

Camrose County joined forces with the Alberta Justice and Solicitor General Commercial Vehicle Enforcement crew and Flagstaff County to inspect 27 farm trucks. Of those 27, 21 passed inspection, three required attention and three trucks were found to have defects that would have placed them out of service on any other day. If stopped on a highway, those same trucks could easily have been towed and the

drivers ticketed. The inspection had 38 trucks last year. “Since this is a free farm truck check, no vehicles are towed and no tickets are issued. Camrose County would like to encourage farmers to take advantage of this inspection program in order to avoid any on-highway problems,” added officer Kuzio. Inspections included critical safety items such as brakes, steering, lights,

frames, fuel systems and drive shafts. Camrose County would like to thank Camrose Cargill Animal Nutrition, Acklands Grainger, Camrose UFA Farm Store and Richardson Pioneer for their donations. This year’s prizes were won by Steve Nelson, Bernice Cherry, Markus Reyerding, Kevin Drader, Larry Sharuga, Roger Gabert, Tyler Schultz, Michael Van Petten and Helmut Dierks.

Special thanks to Alan Doutre, Todd Thompson, from Alberta Commercial Vehicle Enforcement and Skyler Zelinski from Flagstaff County for their participation and assistance to Camrose County Peace Officers. Camrose County and Commercial Vehicle Enforcement performs truck inspections on an annual basis, usually near the end of March or the beginning of April.

The JAYWALKERS’ JAMBOREE SUPER BOOSTER, May 31, 2016 – Page 22

Enhancing lives through recreational therapy By Chantal Beesley Living a fulfilling life is an aspiration of most people. For many, living a full life includes being healthy both physically and emotionally. Unfortunately for some, their health isn’t the best – either they have chronic illness, a disability, or have reached an age where the body isn’t as strong as it once was when they were young. Taking care of the vulnerable is core to The Bethany Group, a nonprofit organization that offers health and housing services to those in need. Whether it be for seniors in continuing care, lodges or subsidized apartments or individuals and families through social housing and rent supplement programs, The Bethany Group invests its resources into improving the lives of its clients. The organization’s mission is to enhance the quality of life for its clients. Serving clients is more than placing a roof over their heads or providing the necessary medical care. It’s about treating clients with dignity and respect through holistic care that acknowledges the physical, intellectual, emotional, and spiritual wellbeing of the individual. Recreation therapy is one way that The Bethany Group enhances its clients’ lives. Therapeutic recreation uses creative activities to support rehabilitation and promote wellness as an integral part of an individual’s wellbeing and health. Through recreation therapy, individuals can find and maintain meaning and purpose in their lives while developing a healthy lifestyle. As part of the health services spectrum, recreation therapists work collaboratively with physicians, psychiatrists, nurses, social workers, and dietitians – just to name a few. The team at The Bethany Group works closely on a daily basis with clients; they encourage them to experience life to its fullest while being empathetic to their ability level. Involving clients in outdoor activities is important, especially during the summer. With many clients having compromised physical health, it can sometimes be difficult for them to get outside. However, the therapists

Using pets as recreational therapy is a successful way to connect with residents.

Therapeutic recreation uses creative activities such as gardening to support rehabilitation and promote wellness in individuals.

have come up with some inventive ways to allow clients to experience the outdoors. Over the summer, the therapists created a balcony garden for clients on the second floor of the Heritage Building. The location made it easier for them to bring clients outside while maintaining their safety. From the balcony, clients could also see wildlife (the resident hares that live on the grounds, as well as deer) and activity on the street. The project, coordinated by recreation therapist, Amelia Keech, and assistants Debbie Parton and Kati Woycechowsky encourages clients to grow and harvest vegetables that would be used later in their lunch cook-

ing programs. The key to its success was building the boxes at a level that allowed clients in wheelchairs to access the box without undue physical strain The balcony garden is just one of the outdoor spaces used by recreation therapy. One of their larger tasks, which benefitted greatly from the hard work of the horticultural society ladies, was bringing the Rosehaven Courtyard back to life after years of disuse and overgrown weeds. The courtyard is a secure outdoor area for clients, their families, and staff. Filled with bushes, flowers, statues, and a water fountain, the courtyard has become a popular place with clients. It

also has brought a lot of birds and squirrels. The Rosehaven Courtyard is open to residents and staff during the summer. It’s a great place to eat lunch or take a break. Therapy programming in the courtyard includes watering and trimming bushes, filling up the bird feeders, and identifying the wildlife. The latter includes a robin that loves the courtyard so much it has decided to winter there. A number of programs that are usually facilitated indoors are moved into the courtyard during the summer months, such as mental aerobics, table games, music, and sensory stimulation. At Louise Jensen Care Centre, the gardens were

taken over by recreation therapy and other staff to hold the annual Louise Jensen County Fair. Clients spent the afternoon playing games like a Bean Bag Toss, Let’s Go Fishing, and Paint the Shelly (Shelly being a therapy aide who bravely took hits from food-dye-coloured balloons). After winning at the games, clients were given LJ Dollars to then buy items at the prize table. The highlight of the afternoon was the dog show featuring staff members’ and families’ pet pooches. Outside, residents and staff gathered as dogs competed for “cutest dog” and “best trick.” It was a fun end to an exciting day. Helly, one of the dogs in the Louise Jensen Dog Show, visits with a resident. Dogs are a great way to connect with residents. Quite often, you will find registered therapy dogs visiting residents in many facilities. In Wetaskiwin Meadows, Morris pays a visit every two weeks, much to the delight of residents. Interaction with therapy dogs can often cause lowered blood pressure, improved relaxation, and increased social behaviour. Pets provide one of the few interventions capable of permanently lifting the atmosphere of a care facility. As Jenelle Spiess, a support aide, said of Morris’ visit, “We had residents who wouldn’t leave their room for any other activity but once they found out a dog was coming in, it made them so excited. Residents start to remember the pets they had back on their family farms. We even had residents practice their barking skills!” Morris’ visits to Wetaskiwin Meadows are always popular with the residents, even enticing more reclusive residents to come out and visit. Overall, there are a variety of activities and programs that enhance residents’ lives. All year round, in several care facilities including long term care, designated supportive living, and the more independent living at lodges, residents are encouraged to participate in organized activities. Whether it is an outing to an event or visits from furry friends, the aim is to uplift and enhance residents’ lives.

Song combines outdoor exploration with music, rhythms and an audio/ visual presentation, capturing the sounds and feel of our city’s natural areas. Conservatory administrator and Music with Children instructor Charlene Brown explains “we are really

excited about this camp; nature is such a great source of musical ideas! Campers will have fun taking pictures of nature, recording its sounds and learning about rhythm through the use of hand drums and percussion instruments.” Brown assures everyone that no musical skills are necessary, just “a desire to move, groove and get outdoors.” Camps run the month of July for Grades 2 to 8.

Crime was up by 17 per cent in 2015 By Dan Jensen

Camrose Police Service officers provided services in more than 14,000 reported incidents, completed 2,070 criminal investigations, seized illegal narcotics totalling $107,000 and completed 667 traffic collision investigations in 2015. “A colleague once said when the price of oil is high the police are busy but when the price of oil is low the police are really busy,” said Police Chief Darrell Kambeitz in the Camrose Police Service annual report. “That statement is a true reflection of 2015 for the Camrose Police Service.” Offences increase

The number of reported criminal offences increased by 17 per cent in 2015 from 1,771. “An analysis indicates a clear connection between the substantial increase in property related crimes and substance abuse, primarily the use and distribution of synthetic drugs,” said Kambeitz. Camrose Police Commission chair L owel l K nutson explained that property offences, including the theft of vehicles to transport illegal substances, are directly associated with illegal drug use. “The deteriorating economy, along with the perceived easy money to be made from trafficking has created more demand and supply,” said Knutson. “The Service is monitoring a small number of prolific offenders who commit a disproportionate percentage of crime.” Knutson said the socalled recreational drugs are sometimes being enhanced by synthetics without the knowledge of the end user, creating dangerous and sometimes deadly outcomes. The Commission is concerned about the number of calls the police are expected to attend that are not criminal in nature. “The service is operational 24/7, 365 days a year, so we are not always available for citizen service,” said Knutson. “We have found that approximately 40 per cent of our calls are not traditional police functions and should be addressed by other

Camrose Police Service chief of police Darrell Kambeitz received an Order of Merit of the Police Forces from His Excellency the Right Honourable David Johnston, Governor General of Canada, at an investiture ceremony in Rideau Hall, Ottawa, Sept. 18.

agencies. The Service budget, which includes these non police calls, is still comparable to other police services in Alberta at 17 per cent of the tax levy. The Commission and the Service recognize that we must find innovative solutions to keep our costs and response to calls as efficient and effective, thereby maintaining current service levels within our budget guidelines.” Analysis

The number of crimes against persons increased by 21 per cent (to 320) in 2015 after declining to 263 in 2014. Assaults increased by 35 per cent to 218, with 20 of those being sexual assault, 148 assault level one, and 36 assault level two. The number of robberies totalled eight, up from four the year before, while the number of criminal harassments dropped from 29 to 12. Sixty-two persons were charged with uttering threats, compared to 65 in 2014. The number of crimes against property increased

by 25 per cent to 1,031, with 408 of those being thefts under $5,000, 198 property damage over $5,000, 126 fraud, 101 possession of stolen property, 101 break and enter, 81 theft of motor vehicle, 11 thefts over $5,000, and five arson–damage of property. Thefts (under $5,000) from motor vehicles numbered 140, while the number of shoplifting cases (under $5,000) was 77. The number of other criminal code offences, including bail violations (278), breach of peace (203), disturbing the peace (73), breach of probation (66), weapons (54), obstruction/ resist police (30), and child pornography (one), was 2070, up from 1,771 in 2014. The reported number of drug offences increased by two per cent to 328. Marijuana possession totals increased from 146 to 178, cocaine possession totals stayed the same at 28, cocaine trafficking charges dropped from 30 to 11, and methamphetamine trafficking dropped from 16 to seven.

“Early in 2015 we engaged our community partners with educational presentations, awareness packages and preventative initiatives all targeted at substance abuse,” said Kambeitz. “As we move forward we will continue with these initiatives and enhance our enforcement, targeting those distributing narcotics in our community.” Public education

Public education continued to be the focal point in preventing crime in the community, as CPS members provided a wide range of presentations to several organizations, groups, businesses and school classes on topics that ranged from fraud awareness, counterfeit currency and residential security to domestic violence, impaired driving, and social media. “Businesses and citizens were consistently updated about current crime trends and the proactive ways they can deter crime,” said the report. CPS conducted over 20

school tours during the year, most of which were with children in kindergarten or early elementary. “The tours are always popular and many schools incorporate the tour into their standard curriculum,” indicated the report. A program that continued to be used was Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED). “The CPTED philosophy revolves around the specific design of public places in ways that prevent criminal activity,” said the report. “Minor alterations to buildings and residences can reduce potential crimes from occurring. Numerous businesses were spoken to about CPTED techniques.” Approximately 200 Grade 3 students, 200 Grade 6 students and 200 Grade 8 students participated in the Drug Abuse Resistance Education Program, which promotes a no-use drug message. The DARE program strongly believes that youth who are taught to make safe and responsible decisions will make healthy choices, not only about drugs but in other areas of their lives. At the conclusion of the Grade 6 program, students write what is known as a DARE essay, a personal initiative in making safe and responsible choices. Following the completion of the program they are rewarded for their success in a DARE graduation at Duggan Cinemas. Chief Kambeitz commended the significant achievements of the Camrose and District Victim Services Unit, as well as the many projects of the crime prevention officer and school resource officer. “The impacts that these individuals and programs have on our community cannot be measured but I see the positive results every day,” said Kambeitz. “Without their caring dedication, most of whom are volunteers, none of these accomplishments would be possible.” Camrose Police Service has 23 constables, five sergeants, one staff sergeant, one deputy chief and one police chief. The police to population ratio is one to 623.

Alberta boosts support for high tech innovation, research The Government of Alberta is providing additional funding for Alberta’s high-tech businesses to create a more diversified and resilient economy. The Enhanced Innovation Voucher and Small and Medium-sized Enterprises Support program will receive $5 million in additional funding to help small innovative and technology-based businesses gain access to services and expertise they

need to get their ideas and products to market. “Our government is committed to making Alberta the best place in Canada to start a new business, build on innovation and get a new idea off the ground,” said Deron Bilous, Minister of Economic Development and Trade. “This investment comes at the right time for Alberta’s high-tech researchers and entrepreneurs as we work together to build a

more diverse and resilient economy.” The program helps small and medium-sized innovative and technology-based businesses access services such as marketing, planning, feasibility or business formation, as well as accelerated technology and product development activities such as prototyping, demonstration and testing. The program will also double the number of tech-

nology development advisers to assist businesses with technical, product development and business expertise. “With the help of Alberta Innovates–Technology Futures’ programs, we developed and fielded a unique combustion and thermal transfer technology that has proven to reduce CO2 emissions by more than 35 per cent compared with traditional combustion tech-

nologies,” said Hank Mottl, director of Engineering, Absolute Combustion International Inc. “The vouchers helped us with everything from a market opportunity assessment and patent protection to a commercialization associate.” Small and mediumsized businesses can find more information about this program and how to apply at http://www.albertatechfutures.ca/industryfunding.

Riggins will be teaching in Australia this summer Kathleen Riggins

By Dan Jensen

Kathleen Riggins will need to start brushing up on her Australian phrases. “Good on ya mate! Put another shrimp on the barbie.” “Remember to take your brolly when it’s raining.” A partner in Quilting from the Heart along with her parents, Roger and Ardelle Kerr, and her husband, Rocky, Riggins has been asked to teach free motion and long arm quilting at a quilting festival in Adelaide, South Australia, during the month of August. She will also be teaching classes in Cairns, Brisbane and Hobart. “I’m really excited about going,” said Riggins. “It’s cool that people think enough of my skills to want me.” Riggins will be teaching seven classes at the festival, three of which are already sold out. “There are a lot of teachers who will be there and I have the most sold out classes,” she said. Riggins was encouraged to teach at the festival by a close Australian friend. “I didn’t think I would be accepted when I applied so when they said they wanted me I was quite surprised,” she said. She almost backed out when she was told that she would be paid a commission based on the number of students in her class. “I mentioned to the organizers the students enrolled in the classes wouldn’t be enough to cover my travel costs so they increased the number of classes and arranged some additional teaching opportunities in other cities as well,” she said. “I think I will be teaching about seven days in total.” Riggins spent a lot of time in her parents’ quilting store when she was growing up and has been doing free motion quilting since she was 16. She started working on a long arm quilting machine when her parents purchased

The Sewing Centre. After purchasing her own long arm machine for use at home, she was approached by American Professional Quilting Systems (APQS) to try one of its high end long arm quilting machines for a year. “They sponsored me so I had an APQS system in my home,” she said. “They wanted me to do advertising for the Lucy.” Riggins teaches courses at the store on a regular basis, including one on free motion quilting. She said it is fun to see people get excited about learning new skills. “A lot of people think that free motion quilting is scary, but once they get used to it they are fine,” she said. “If you can draw a circle you can free motion quilt. It’s just a matter of being willing to try something new.” Riggins won a first place ribbon at a recent quilt show in Red Deer for the long arm work she did on a quilt by Liz Maki. She has also attended quilting shows in the United States where she is able to pick up new skills to share with others. “I have been to Quilt Con (presented by the Modern Quilt Guild) and next February, when it is held in Savannah, I will be teaching four Quilt Con classes,” she said. “It should be a good experience for me because I have been attending the conference for a long time.” Riggins has always been a willing pupil eager to soak up all the information she could about quilting. “When she was going to school here in Camrose she was always willing to help,” said Ardelle. “She would come in to stock shelves, assemble kits or do whatever else was required.” Riggins and her husband are excited about taking in all the sights, sounds and flavours of Australia. “We are going to be gone from the third of August to the thirtieth, so we plan on doing a lot of travelling,” she said.

Cutknife receives Aspenes award

ASPENES AWARD

Augustana dean Dr. Allen Berger presented the Lois Aspenes Award to Bruce Cutknife at the University of Alberta Augustana Campus Spring Soiree.

University of Alberta Augustana Campus dean, Dr. Allen Berger, presented the Lois Aspenes Award to Bruce Cutknife at Augustana’s Spring Soiree April 26. The Lois Aspenes Award honours an alumnus or alumna in recognition of significant contributions to the alumni association or to the life of Augustana. Bruce Cutknife is a member of the Samson Cree First Nation. He was born and raised in the Bear Hills Maskwacis community with Cree as his first language. He attended the Ermineskin residential School up until Grade 9, moved to Edmonton and completed high school in 1974. At the newly established Maskwacis Cultural College in 1976, he worked in the Living History Program, where his duties included recording elders talking about local history. This involved working with elders to collect and archive the Cree language, working with Cree syllabics and using them in the collection and archiving of local history. Cutknife went back to school, receiving his Bachelor of Arts in History and Native Studies from Augustana University College in 1997. After graduation, he worked in local radio and television, and taught some Cree Language and Cree Studies courses at Maskwacis Cultural College. Bruce was also the director of education for the Samson Cree nation and is now the indigenous education coordinator for the Nipisihkopahk Education Authority. “Bruce has been a longtime friend of the Aboriginal Students’ Office and of the Augustana Campus,” said Jérôme Melançon, chair of Augustana’s Aboriginal Engagement Committee. “On the basis of his knowledge and research, he has been able to advise and inform the Aboriginal Students Office as well as the Aboriginal Engagement Committee in an informal role over the years, notably in the creation of the Statement of Acknowl-

edgement of the Traditional Territory specific to the Augustana Campus. “He has been an invaluable resource in helping us better understand Nehiyaw (Plains Cree) culture. He ensures that we do not misrepresent it in our efforts to include some aspects of our neighbours’ culture in Maskwacis and of the First Nation on whose territory we live and learn today.” He represented Maskwacis and offered words of welcome as well as an opening prayer at the Alberta Centre for Sustainable Rural Communities Taking the Next Steps Conference in October 2010. He presented on the Interconnections Between Cree Language and Culture in Dr. Paula Marentette’s Psychology of Language class in November 2011. He set up his tipi on campus in July 2012 as part of a First Nations cultural day that Augustana hosted for visiting Chinese students. He gave a half-day lecture on the History of Aboriginal People in Canada to a group of visiting Chinese Instructors in August 2013. He also invited them to meet with him in his tipi that weekend at the Samson Cree Nation’s 2013 Pow Wow. He spoke as one of four presenters at the Land On Which We Stand Gathering which the Aboriginal Engagement Committee hosted in January 2014. More recently, alongside campus administrators, staff and students, he served as a member of the Aboriginal Student Commons Steering Committee. He helped oversee the creation, design and building of the Wahkohtowin Lodge. He made sure that the community was heard and that the Nehiyaw culture was accurately and respectfully represented. Along with others, he also helped ensure that the information about the concept of wahkohtowin was accurate.

Zone Champions

The Camrose 55 Plus floor curling team captured the Rimbey tournament. After playing three eight-end games, the Frank Snopek team and the Bawlf team, skipped by Dennis Hartman, were tied for first, so they had to play a four-end tie-breaker, with Snopek’s team coming out victorious. Members of the winning team are, from left to right, Leona Oberg, Ed Fuller, Helen Caldwell and Frank Snopek.
