Doug Burnstad and Dale Martin each lost their mothers to cancer. Although many years have passed and good memories linger, the pain of loss for the friends has not diminished. The avid pair of motorcyclists hope to make a sizeable donation to Ovarian Cancer Canada as a result of their brainchild, the first annual
Camrose Motorcycle Ride for Mom Hosted by Camrose Motorsports, and generously supported by an impressive number of local and out-of-town businesses, the fundraising ride will take place on Sunday, July 10th. Registration starts at 9 a.m. and the ride, which will be launched by Camrose Police Service, gets underway at noon. The day includes a discounted breakfast at Humpty’s, tasty ice cream from Ole’s Ice Cream Castle and a BBQ featuring the quality meats of Tofield Packers after the jaunt. The ride will take motorcyclists on a scenic path through the city and local countryside.

REFLECTIONS by Bonnie Hutchinson Shameless
One of my best role models for telling people what you need – shamelessly – was my dad. Whether it was hustling tickets to local fundraisers or getting business help, he wasn’t afraid to ask. One of his favourite expressions was, “There is no point in being ignorant unless you show it.” Last week I was having trouble making myself ask for help with something I felt embarrassed about. Remembering one of Dad’s capers made it easier. Enjoy the story! *** In the early days when my parents launched The Camrose Booster, cash flow was a constant concern. One of their sources of operating money was a “demand loan” at the local branch of a national bank. It was called a “demand loan” because the bank had the right at any time to “demand” that the loan be paid in full. The benefit was that demand loans had a cheaper interest rate. The odds of the bank actually “demanding” that it be paid in full were practically zero. Neither the bank manager, my parents, nor anyone they knew had ever heard of a bank actually asking someone to pay off a demand loan. And then one day the local bank manager called my dad and asked him to come over to the bank. My dad was puzzled but thought the bank manager probably wanted to talk about something related to a service club to which they both belonged. When Dad arrived, the bank manager was clearly uncomfortable. He explained, haltingly, that the bank was “calling the loan.” The fledgling business would have to come up with the money to pay the loan in full. To put this in context, the house that our family lived in cost $8,000. The balance of the demand loan was $8,000. *** My dad was stunned. First of all, there was no way he had access to $8,000. But secondly, he didn’t understand why the bank would call the loan. The business had never done anything that wasn’t according to the loan agreement with the bank. Why would the bank suddenly demand it be paid in full? The bank manager explained that businesses in an Eastern Canadian industry needed to borrow money. The bank was calling in loans from Western Canada, to have money to lend to businesses in that other industry. From the bank’s point of view, it wasn’t personal! But of course it had a very personal impact. *** In those circumspect days, even in our small town where everybody knew everybody’s business, you never talked about money. It just wasn’t done. If you had money problems you really didn’t want anyone to find out. Money problems were shameful. My dad came up with an idea about how he might get $8,000. He knew Booster ads get results. He put in a classified ad: “Wanted: $8,000.” Shameless! Every household in the community would know our family had a money problem. (I’ve often wondered what my very private Mom thought.) *** This is what happened. Several people contacted my dad and made arrangements to loan money to the business. The business paid interest on the loan every month, and at the end of one year, the lender would either continue on with the loan or the business would pay some or all of it back. For years, those loans helped to keep the business afloat. If my dad hadn’t been shamelessly willing to expose his money problem, the business would have gone under. That would have been devastating to our family, but also a great loss to the community which was seeing the benefits of having a paper that went to every household. *** My takeaway? I’m not keen on flinging around what I consider to be personal. But sometimes, I could benefit from saying what I need, shamelessly allowing others to see my limitations, and allowing surprising sources of help. How about you? Is there some part of your life that could benefit from you being willing – shamelessly – to let others know what you need? *** If you have comments about this column or suggestions for future topics, send a note to Bonnie@BonnieHutchinson.com

Canada Day sponsors honoured
Polish men Almost a decade ago, my husband came home with an interesting proposition. Business was booming at the cabinetmaking shop in Calgary, so much so that his boss had held competitions in Poland to recruit new skilled workers. After they were hired, he realized that there was also a shortage of affordable housing in Calgary, so he approached us asking if we would consider taking on three Polish men. When I first noticed my husband, in my Grade 12 English class where he was batting his eyes at a blonde in the front, he had just returned from a year in Australia on a Rotary Youth Exchange. The exchange had been life-changing for him, giving him increased confidence, a yearning to travel more, and a desire to continue meeting people from other cultures. When the opportunity arose, it didn’t take much discussion to conclude that we wanted to provide room and board for the new workers. It turned out to be one of the most interesting three months of our lives. They were strangers to each other, from different corners of Poland as different as Edmonton from Ottawa, and only one spoke enough English to be in charge of important negotiations like haircuts. My husband broke the news to his mother by calling and saying that we were “adding to our family.” We had been married for five years at this point, and had just bought a house. She was very excited about her first grandchild…until she realized that they were talking about three adult Polish men, not one giggling baby. She finished the phone call quickly and wasn’t too pleased with us for a while. “Lauwra, computer brrroken” became a common refrain in our home, as our old computer struggled to keep up with the Internet demands of people far from their loved ones. One night we served up soft tacos, without explaining how it was done. Everyone piled vegetables and cheese high onto their tacos, and then my husband neatly rolled his up. Everyone started laughing, and Marius was forced to scoop some of the veggies off onto a second taco before he could roll. After the meal, Marek declared the feast to be his “favourite Canadian meal.” We didn’t have the heart to tell him it was more Mexican than Canadian. There was a staff member at work who served as translator on a few occasions, with the language barrier being a comical struggle at times. I served a tuna casserole one night and the guys asked what the meat was. My husband quickly answered that it was raccoon. They pondered that, searched in their dictionary for the equivalent in their language, but couldn’t come up with the right word. After just a few minutes at work the next day, the translator approached my husband and said “Did you really feed them raccoon last night?” We had a lot of laughs over that one, and it’s a story that I don’t mind hearing again and again. One night we piled onto the couch for family movie night. I was concerned about finding something on TV that we could all enjoy, given their limited English. What should appear on the screen, but Castaway, a movie about the sole survivor of a plane crash played by Tom Hanks, and his years on a deserted island. There is 10 minutes of dialogue at both the beginning and end of the movie, and very little talking in between. Perfect. We took them camping, and out to play billiards. One weekend we went away, and upon our return were instructed by our neighbours that our “children” had been in the hot tub pressing lots of buttons and we might want to take a look at it. It turned out that they were trying to turn on the jets and instead had turned the heat up to 106 F on a plus 30 C day. My only real concern at the beginning was supplying meals for so many people. We quickly got into a rhythm, and I learned to buy bananas. Lots of bananas. Yellow ones, slightly yellow ones and green ones. So I didn’t need to buy them every day. After three months, they found apartments of their own. We gave them housewarming presents and went our separate ways. We have often found ourselves laughing over the years as we have retold these stories, remembering that it was taking a chance and doing something out of the ordinary that led us to the experience in the first place. Now when an experience presents itself that seems a bit strange at first glance, I try to say yes. You never know if it might make a great raccoon casserole story one day.

“We Sell for Less Than Big City Stores”
Camrose connection to 100 years of Women’s Suffrage By Janine Carroll
Alberta women won the right to vote and hold provincial office 100 years ago, feeding into the 2016 federal Canada Day theme “100 years of Women’s Suffrage.” Five of our Alberta women emerged to lead the activist movement, supported by a nation of women who didn’t rise to infamy. The Famous Five contributed to the reform of social and legal roles of women, provincially and nationally.
There were likely several Camrose contributions to the Suffrage movement, but a significant local connection involved the 1915 Wetaskiwin court case of Jennie Hawkes who was accused of murdering Mrs. Rosella Stoley. The jury was populated by six Camrose men. They found Mrs. Hawkes guilty and the judge sentenced her to death. A firestorm reaction radiated across the province (and nation) as was
reported in the Oct. 25, 1915 Camrose Canadian: “Provincial Women’s Organization Is Up In Arms Over Verdict Of Camrose Jury.” As the outrage grew, petitions circulated with more than 100,000 signatures collected provincially. The sentence was quickly reduced to 10 years in prison. It was a different time – evident when reading the names of jurors published in various newspapers and seeing Emily Murphy referred to as
Mrs. Arthur Murphy; a time when an Alberta man was acquitted from murder using the defense of ‘divine romantic rage’. The three Prairie Provinces were the first in Canada to allow woman a provincial vote. The strength and independence demonstrated by our pioneer women is said to be a principal factor for our leading the charge within this movement. In honor of all those hard
working, independent women, the Camrose and District Centennial Museum is launching a project to collect and share stories passed down about our female settlers. Much of our folklore is lost as our elders age and pass on. Help us capture some of our vanishing narrative history. To learn more about this project, call 780-672-3298 or visit at 4522-53 Street.

Battle River Quilters’ Guild
When the Camrose senior slo-pitch team wins, so does the community. The Camrose ball players won the A event at the Barrhead tournament on June 18 to 20 and earned $100 in prize money. They passed their winnings on to the Battle River Community Foundation to benefit the Camrose Minor Sports Association. Earlier in the year, the team hosted a tournament in Rosalind and won the B event of the 16-team event on May 28 and 29. The ball players donated their $100 prize money to the Camrose Women’s Shelter. “We practice every Tuesday and Thursday at 6:30 p.m. at the West End diamond (across from the Legion) and we invite anyone who likes to play ball who is 55 years of age and older,” said team spokesman Fred Vanouck. “We are looking for some younger players.” The Camrose team was formed in 1980 with the purpose of providing physical activity for those 55 years and older. The team is sponsored by the Camrose branch of the Royal Canadian Legion. The team helped host the Alberta Senior Games in 1982 and 1984 and won their first gold medals in 1984.

Lending a helping hand By Lori Larsen Cutting insulation, hammering up drywall or whatever the call demands, Our Lady of Mount Pleasant students were more than willing to lend a helping hand for the Habitat for Humanity 29th and 30th Camrose builds. OLMP raised over $2,000 to help Habitat Camrose build homes in their community. Through their fundraising and building efforts the students have an opportunity to meet and impact families directly. OLMP has been involved with Habitat for three years, with fundraising and awareness through the DIY challenge and various school projects. This is the second year the students have participated in a build day. The enthusiasm of these students is more than apparent when walking around the build and seeing how focused
they are, not to mention being on site at 9 a.m. on a day off from school. The group this day was led by high school leadership students Courtney Gerun and Shayna Law, but the opportunity to participate in the build is available to all OLMP students who are 16 years and older. “Courtney and Shayna are two of our most involved high school leadership students in grade 12 at OLMP, along with Ashton Ford who was absent that day (Habitat build day). He is another highly involved OLMP leader,” said Kristy Smith, OLMP teacher. “These Grade 12 students have grown a great deal during their involvement in the OLMP leadership club.” This group of Grade 12 students took on many initiatives such as Hollywood Galas, Habitat awareness weeks, a service trip to California to
help the homeless, and, this June, a relay for life event held in Sherwood Park. Beyond the benefits to the community the students themselves have developed valuable skills in public speaking, organization, communication and mentoring. Others helping with the build on April 22 were Grade 12 students Miracle Mopera and Caitlin Twomey, Grade 11 students Cassidy Stitchman and Kristina Bast, and Grade 10 student Kaleigh Taschuk. On June 30 Habitat Camrose and the 2016 Partner Families, along with members of the community, joined in celebration of the 2016 Home Dedications and presentation of keys to partner family Marc and Sheryl Caba and son Matthieu and partner family Ashak Qliana and Sunds Dawood and daughter Moreen.
Lori Larsen, Camrose Booster Our Lady Mount Pleasant Grade 12 students Shayna Law measured, cut and hung insulation on the Habitat for Humanity build located in Cascades. Several OLMP students were on hand participating in the build as their way of contributing to a great cause. This was the 30th home built by Habitat for Humantiy Camrose during it’s 20th anniversary and the 10th anniversary for the ReStore.

Kirkland signs hockey deal with Nashville By Murray Green
Former Camrose Minor Hockey player Justin Kirkland signed a three year entry level deal with the Nashville Predators to move one step closer to realizing his dream of playing in the National Hockey League. “Nashville is a big jump, but I’m going into camp with the attitude that I have nothing to lose. My goal is to stay there as long as I can. If I get sent to Milwaukee, then
my goal is to battle my way back to Nashville. Playing at the pro level will help me improve more than going back to Kelowna. Not that I don’t want to go back, but it’s better for my future to play at the pro level,” said Kirkland. Kirkland was drafted by Nashville in 2014, but went back to the Kelowna Rockets of the Western Hockey League to continue to improve his skills to reach the next level.
“I had to sign by June 1, or I would have to go back into the draft,” said Kirkland. “After I got the call, I didn’t stop shaking all day. My dad came home from work and said ‘you’re shaking’ and I said I couldn’t stop, even after four hours after the call. I was watching a movie and then I received a call from my agent. He said ‘I have good news, get your dad on the phone too.’” The 19-year-old left winger collected 51 points in 50
Justin Kirkland
games in the 2014-15 season and 67 points in 69 games this year. “As an older player, I put a little more responsibility on myself this year. I liked that for me because that added a little pressure and that is a privilege,” said Kirkland. “We had a good team even though we lost two key guys. I scored over 30 goals and put up decent numbers. We were the underdogs in the first two playoff series and we beat Kamloops in seven games in overtime. Victoria was supposed to win the whole league, but we took them out in seven games in overtime as well. We ran out of gas against Seattle. You always dream of winning those series in overtime in game seven and we were fortunate to do that twice. You always want to win, but I liked our character and the way we battled through injuries.” He was glad to spend his time in Kelowna. “Over the three years there I have grown a lot as a player and a person. It was a great place to mature outside of the rink. Every coach had a different style and that helped me learn more and it developed me as a player. I went in as an offensive player and came out as a well-rounded player, playing big minutes and taking key face-offs.” Kirkland returned to Kelowna for a busy summer of training to prepare for the Predators’ camp this fall. “I have to be prepared to play against older guys. You need more strength to play against men, not that I’m not
strong, but I will be one of the youngest players as opposed to being one of the older players,” added Kirkland. “The added strength will give me more confidence.” If he doesn’t make Nashville squad, Kirkland is prepared to work hard on the Milwaukee Admirals with the hope of receiving a call-up sometime during the season. Kirkland will be training with the same group that trained Shea Weber, one of the best defenceman in the NHL. “He played for the Rockets, so I met him at one of our games when we won the championship two years ago and he invited me to go with his group of guys. That was an honour that I couldn’t pass up.” Weber was just traded to the Montreal Canadiens. “We rented out ice and scrimmaged and worked on our skills. It was great for younger guys to look up to them,” he added. “Shooting on Carey Price and skating with Milan Lucic is something I enjoyed last year. They are top guys in the NHL and you learn every minute from them. They are at the top because they work hard and you get to see what it takes to play at that level.” Kirkland is comfortable knowing that Nashville is willing to give young players a chance to play at the same time as being a competitive team. “I thank my parents and family, minor hockey and the support I receive from the Camrose community.”

Crossfire U16 girls win three straight tournaments By Murray Green
The Camrose Crossfire U16 fastball team caught fire right from the start of ball season. The Crossfire placed second at the first tournament they entered and then followed that up with three straight gold medal performances. Teammates Chloe McIndoe and Madison Gall reflected on the team’s success so far this year. “We have been able to communicate well on the field and play as a team. That is a big part of ball—communicating,” said McIndoe. “We have really good coaches.” With the dedicated, enthusiastic and experienced coaches helping to lead the way, these girls are as ready as they can be. Coach Chris Sedgwick and her assistant coaches have lead the team to wins in Stettler, Lacombe and Edmonton. After an exhibition game against the senior ladies team, the club is off to provincials July 8 to 10. “It will be a tough provincials with several good teams. What is special about this team is that the players set
Jun Mah Photo The Camrose Crossfire U16 girl’s fastball team won the gold medals in the Lacombe, Stettler and Edmonton tournaments. Members of the team include, back row from left, coach Chris Sedgwick, Kaden Feddema, Madi Gall, Chloe McIndoe, Cassie Law, Erica Bernard, Kori Sheets, Sienna Erickson and coach Troy Anderson.

their own standards. “When you have three very strong pitchers and a solid group of girls that can strongly play two or three positions each, that gives us an edge. This group of girls are as solid a team as you can get. They work well together, for being a new team of players from different communities. This team is every coach’s dream. They will hit, bunt or be patient for a walk if asked. And they will run, steal and
slide when needed,” said coach Sedgwick. The lack of a local league hasn’t stopped the girls from improving. “We don’t have enough girls in softball in our age division to have a league, so we play a lot of weekends,” said McIndoe. “We enter as many tournaments as we can to prepare for provincials,” added Gall. “We play a lot of exhibition games as well.” McIndoe and Gall have
played ball for several years, but this is the first year they have played together. “We have players from all over to get enough for a team,” said Gall, who is from Wetaskiwin. “When we are on, we have good hitting and pitching,” added McIndoe on assessing her team. “Our pitchers and catchers really work well together and have a pretty good bond,” continued Gall. “We have to remember to stay positive. I know
if I get down on myself as a pitcher, it doesn’t help me at all. Just having a catcher to keep me calm helps a lot,” said McIndoe. “Sometimes I call a time out, tell a joke and get her back in it,” shared Gall. “This year we all know provincials will be tough, as the girls have set their own expectations quite high, but they have their eyes set on gold and don’t want anything else. It is going to be very hard to reach this goal, but when you add the heart, dedication, practice and want, it makes anything possible,” added Sedgwick. The Camrose team is hoping the experience of playing for gold medals will be the difference at provincials. “The dedication and drive these girls have is unbelievable. I couldn’t ask for anything more. It has been a great season so far and I hope we can finish it on top. At least, that is our goal,” said Sedgwick. “Without the support and commitment from the families and parents, this season wouldn’t have been possible.”

A well run retail business can be demanding of a person’s time and energy and more often than not does not come with a lot of kudos or appreciation, but for Heather and Sebastien D’Eschambeault, owners of The Brick in Camrose, their customers’ loyalty and winning the Franchise of the Year award for 2015 reinforces their dedication. “The award is awarded annually,” said Sebastien. “They just started giving it out to the franchise division so we had the opportunity to go after the award.” In order to qualify for a nomination entrants had to prepare a binder containing valid information about their particular store, such as financial results for the year, and photos demonstrating community involvement, the store itself and its appearance. “The main thing that made us win was our community involvement,” commented Sebastien. “We like to give back to the community and I find by doing so people support us a lot more, and buy our products because they see us out in the community.” The Brick, owners and staff, have supported Jaywalkers at the Kinsmen Booth, organizing the parade, bottle drives for Camrose Open Door, Walk a Mile in Her Shoes for the Camrose Women’s Shelter Society and other community organizations and events. “That’s what really set us apart from the other stores in the country, the community involvement,” said Sebastien. “The other big thing we have are the five major marketing events throughout the whole year which are usually attached to a contest with the Brick corporate.

Vikings hockey team signs several new players By Murray Green
Augustana Vikings hockey coach Blaine Gusdal inked several big signings this spring. None are any bigger than Brett Ponich. The 6’7” defenceman was drafted in the second round, 48th overall, by the St. Louis Blues of the National Hockey League. The Beaumont area player Ponich, played professional hockey for the past five years in the American Hockey League and East Coast Hockey League. His last stop was with the Kalamazoo Wings. In the 2009 NHL Entry Draft, he was drafted by the Blues and is a former captain of the Portland Winterhawks of the Western Hockey League. “After nine seasons playing in the United States, Brett is excited to be back so close to his home. He is currently pursuing a Bachelor of Science and looking forward to helping the Vikings work towards a championship,” said Gusdal. Former Camrose Kodiaks forward Paul Lovsin will be joining the Vikings as well. He will be taking business management, eventually following into the family grocery business. “My dad and uncle played hockey here for the Vikings when they were young men,” said Lovsin. Lovsin spent three seasons in junior A winning two AJHL championships with
the Spruce Grove Saints. He’s been a point-per-game player over the course of his three years in the AJHL. Goalie Zach deGraves will be majoring in physical education and minoring in kinesiology. “I have been playing hockey for 15 years. My goals for this upcoming year are to start working on my degree, while playing hockey at a competitive level,”he said. deGraves won an SJHL championship in 2014-15 with the Melfort Mustangs and spent this past season, 2015-16, with the Swan Valley Stampeders in the MJHL. He was the team’s MVP and playoff MVP after playing in 50 games and posting a .915 save percentage. Gage Colpron is a right winger who has been playing hockey for 16 years. “I will be taking a bachelor of science, majoring in math and physics.” Colpron played for the Campbell River Storm where he was their leading goal scorer for two seasons and also team captain in 2015-16. He won a Keystone Cup (Western Canadian Championship) in 2014-15 and scored 130 goals over his three year VIJHL career. Owen Sobchak transferred from the Keyano College Huskies. Keyano dropped the hockey program to help balance the budget.
“I’m here to excel in my university studies at a spectacular school and win some championships with the Vikings men’s hockey team,” said Sobchak. “Owen is a very quick, highly skilled, offensive threat every time he hits the ice. He’s a third year ACAC veteran and a proven point-per-game player at this level. We are excited to have him as an integral part of the Vikings, rather than having to chase him,” said Gusdal. Defenceman Jimmy Sheehan also came from Keyano College Huskies as a transfer. “My goal for the upcoming year is to win a championship.” He is a third year player. “Jimmy comes to us from the Keyano Huskies where he was an ACAC second team All-Conference defenceman last season. He brings two years of ACAC experience and he’s expected to be a very valuable addition to our Vikings defense corps. A solid twoway, puck-moving defenceman, Jimmy will be counted on heavily over the next three seasons,” said Gusdal. Zachary Kercz is a forward from Ontario. “I am enrolled in the Bachelor of Arts program. My future plan is to pursue a career in sales and marketing. “My goal this year is to have a strong rookie season
with the Vikings. When I am not in class I like to hang out with my teammates and friends and in the off-season. I came to Augustana because of the U of A degree and the great opportunity to win a championship. “He is another offensive threat in our class of recruits, Zach was the top scorer with the Timmins Rock of the NOJHL. He’s a diminutive, yet very gritty forward who has been a point-per-game player over his three years of junior A hockey. With his skill set and tenacity, we expect Zach will make a smooth transition to the college game and be a great asset to the Vikings,” said Gusdal. Matthew Martin is a forward from Quebec. “My future plans include heading back overseas to play hockey once I complete my degree. One day I would like to work in hockey in some capacity. I am very excited to be joining such an established program in Augustana, as well as a league that is competitive and allows me to get my education. Personally my goal for this season is just contribute towards a winning atmosphere in any way that I can,” he said. “Matthew is a solid twoway forward that comes to our program with a wealth of experience. He has played at the junior A and college level,
plus he’s played two years of pro hockey in Sweden,” said Gusdal. Adam Osczevski will be taking arts and going into business. “I would like to play professional hockey and get into the business world. I think this year we will be very successful and talented on the ice,” he said. “Adam Osczevski has played three years in the BCHL where he was the 2015-16 team captain for his Cowichan Valley Capitals. He’s a tenacious competitor and proven leader who should make a seamless transition to university hockey,” said Gusdal. Joe Olson is a defenceman who will be studying arts at Augustana. “After my five years of school I hope to continue my hockey career possibly overseas. I chose to come to Augustana because of the excellent education that it provides and also coming to such a great hockey program is very exciting.” “Joe Olson was a solid two-way defenceman with the Timmins Rock in the NOJHL. He’s a steady first pass guy with good size and hockey skills. He puts defense first, but has also put up good offensive numbers in junior A,” said the Vikings coach.

Bailey Theatre plans for busy season By Murray Green
Big band sound
The Bailey Theatre will be a hub for entertainment this fall and winter with several new series. Leslie Lindballe, board director and chair of the Bailey Theatre programing committee, was excited to announce a number of series with appeal to a wide variety of audiences.
The Battle River Big Band with the hit sounds of yesteryear will be back with four shows beginning with a Remembrance Day celebration on Nov. 6. The 20-piece band will also play for a Christmas dinner and dance on Dec. 16 and a Valentine’s show on Feb. 12. Roots series
Singing the blues
The Bailey Rock ’n’ Blues Review series will appeal to those who groove to the blues, jazz or rock. Dustin Harder and Prairie Soul returns to Camrose in September along with Ottawa-based Monkey Junk in October. The series also welcomes the legendary Jim Byrnes later in the season. He is also another local favourite. Children’s programs
The Bailey Kids series will provide entertainment for the whole family starting with Al Simmons on Sept. 18. Due to popular demand, Fred Penner was invited back and he will be performing material from his new release. Folk music
Folk, country and bluegrass music fans will want to experience the Prairie Edge Home Companion series, which could have five acts. Mel Parsons from New Zealand will launch the series on Sept. 16. John Reischman and the Jaybirds will be in
Camrose later in the year with a blend of bluegrass, folk and Americana. Capitol Lights
Two new series will feature exciting groups from right here in Alberta. Capitol Lights is a series featuring Edmonton area talent. Edmonton female vocalist of the year, Kimberly MacGreggor and Her Handsome Band, start the season in the fall. Homegrown talent
The Homegrown series is an opportunity to showcase some of the community’s talent. Bookings in this series include Myra Marshall, The Black Hyenas and Brittney Catherine. Bailey Buckaroos
“Our fall and winter program will include our popular mainstay groups such as the Bailey Buckaroos one Sunday afternoon per month starting in September,” said Lindballe.
The popular Rose City Roots Music Society has already planned eight shows in the series. It starts with returning favourites Sweet Alibi and special guest Middle Coast, Sept. 3. The concert will mark the 10th season for the Rose City Roots Music Society. After last year’s successful show, patrons requested a return visit from The Ennis Sisters on Dec. 10. The Bailey Theatre will be partnering with the Jeanne and Peter Lougheed Performing Arts Centre to offer 12 shows, one per month starting in January, to celebrate Canada’s upcoming 150th birthday in 2017. Each month an artist will be featured from across the provinces. Visit the website at www.baileytheatre.com for more information. You can also call Sarah or Louise 780-672-5510 at the box office for information.

Letters to third parties are not accepted. The Camrose Booster may edit for clarity, legality, personal abuse, good taste, public interest and availability of space. The Camrose Booster thanks you for your interest in the letters page and encourages your comments.
Keep naturalization I am definitely in favour of the naturalization of berms and parkland throughout Camrose. I have seen one or two letters of complaint in the local papers, but I felt it worth noting there are those who agree with this policy. Camrose parks and green space areas have traditionally had huge swaths of land mowed each year. Of course it can be hard to adjust, especially when one equates manicured lawns with care and attention. It should be noted that several communities throughout north America are taking steps toward naturalization for many reasons (including Edmonton and Calgary according to their websites). It seems wise to take steps to save emissions, drastically reduce costs on staff and maintenance (resources a department or city can choose to put elsewhere), and reduce herbicide use, all while providing habitat, reducing dust, increasing shade, improving groundwater retention and
even reducing noise in some areas, not to mention setting a great example. I truly appreciate the efforts of our city to become more sustainable both economically and environmentally, and see this as a big step in that direction. Joy- Anne Murphy, Camrose Not for Naturalization
Further to my last letter dated June 10, concerning the Naturalization Project along the 13A by-pass, I would like to address the following additional concerns. First and foremost if anybody misinterpreted my comment of our fire department’s response time I want to express my appreciation for these women and men. Kudos you are doing great, I feel we have some of the best in Alberta. The Camrose City By-law (2865-15 definitions)on unsightly premises within the City of Camrose states that (Section) 2. (i) shows signs of lack of general maintenance and upkeep, including excessive accumulation on the premises of: (r) “yard material” means organic matter formed as a result of gardening or horticultural pursuits and includes grass, tree and hedge cutting and clippings. Section 3. states, “No owner or occupant of premises shall cause or maintain his or her premises as an unsightly premises as defined in this bylaw.” There are many privately owned as well as the City of Camrose properties which are in violation of this bylaw. I do have to wonder what the city
would think if we all imitated the Naturalization Program in our front yards. Wouldn’t that look great. The intent is to see this program choke out the weeds as the program matures in about three years. This does not address the unsightly issue and fire hazard in my opinion. Weeds designated as noxious have the ability to spread rapidly, and cause severe crop losses and economic hardship. Such weeds include Canada thistle, perennial sow thistle, Persian darnel, cypress purge and garlic mustard. Restricted weeds in this category pose a serious threat and as such must be eradicated. Generally these weeds possess characteristics of rapid spread, and superior competition they include poison ivy, mint family. Nuisance weeds are common to the province and are very difficult to eradicate and include dandelions, chick weed, wild millet (fox tail), pig weed and scented chamomile. I am suggesting that you as citizens and taxpayers in the City of Camrose, call the city councillors and demand they re-address this matter, Naturalization Program, and start to take care of their unsightly premises as per their bylaw. I was informed and have since noticed that the Naturalization Program has started in the valley along the creek near the ski jump and headed up towards Jubilee Park. In my opinion it’s a mess too. Rodger Banack, Camrose
Submitted by B. Olson
Just read the letter to the editor in this week’s Booster. My question to the person who wrote this is why the heck do you live here if you’re that angry with everything the city offers or does? Move on please!

Ford Edge Has the power to go places Nicholas Eades Sales Associate
By Murray Green
With its bold design, the 2016 Ford Edge at Lamb Ford Sales in Camrose will definitely get you noticed. Edge sets itself apart with a dynamic grille, sleek roof and aerodynamic shape and a commanding profile. “The inviting and charismatic design of the 2016 Ford Edge inspires confidence, turns heads and changes the way you feel about everyday driving,” said Lamb Ford Sales consultant Nicholas Eades. “There’s something inspiring about the power dome hood, raised belt lines and boldly sculpted shoulders around the wheel arches. It’s a proud, impressive look with sharp angles and graphic lines.” Three different engines provide more than enough horses under the hood. The Twin-Scroll 2.0 litre EcoBoost offers lively acceleration and passing performance. This standard powerhouse produces 245 hp and 275 lb.-ft. of low-end torque. The engine also features available Auto Stop-Start technology for improved fuel efficiency. In city driving, the engine automatically shuts off when the vehicle comes to a stop. Then as traffic once again starts to move, the engine automatically restarts when your foot
leaves the brake pedal. The available 3.5 litre twin independent variable camshaft timing (Ti-VCT) can be easily described in two words: no compromise. It delivers 280 horsepower and 250 lb.-ft. of torque. With conventional valve timing, the intake and exhaust valves have to open and close at a fixed point, compromising performance. But Ti-VCT virtually eliminates this compromise. With its variable control of valve cam timing, Ti-VCT can optimize performance across the entire low, mid and high ranges of the power band to match driving conditions. The dynamic 2.7-litre EcoBoost engine that powers the Ford Edge Sport kicks out
31 5 ho r s ep o we r and 350 lb.-ft. of torque. The Active Grille Shutters, standard on EcoBoost models, help to reduce air resistance and optimize fuel efficiency. When the Active Grille Shutters are fully closed, vehicle aerodynamics are improved by reducing airflow through the radiator. “You don’t have to know how to drive a manual transmission or learn how to master a clutch to enjoy the sporty feel of shifting gears. Using race-inspired technology, the steering wheel-mounted paddles provide an engaged driving experience by letting you easily and quickly go from
Nicholas Eades Sales Associate
gear to gear without taking your hands off the wheel,” added Eades. Adaptive Cruise Control and Collision Warning with Brake Support represents a major step beyond conventional cruise control. When its radar sensor detects traffic slowing ahead, your vehicle also slows down. This system lets the driver set distance, speed and the time gap between vehicles. Safety steering
Available Adaptive Steering is the next evolution in steering technology. The system controls the relationship between how much
the driver turns the wheel and how much the front wheels turn. Lowspeed steering requires much less turning of the wheel. Enhanced Active Park Assist is designed with side parking sensors to give you confidence and help make perpendicular and parallel parking a breeze. While driving slowly near parking spots, activate this feature and Ford Edge will scan for available spaces. Ultrasonic sensors measure the distance from other vehicles, and once an appropriate spot is identified, you’re signaled to stop and accept the system’s assistance. With a few actions on your part, such as shifting, accelerating and braking, the vehicle can smoothly parallel park or back into a perpendicular parking space. At slow speeds, Ford Edge helps you see around corners, down alleys and even helps while you’re pulling out of parking spots, thanks to the available 180-degree camera tucked into the grille. You can see the 2016 Ford Edge at Lamb Ford Sales on Highway 13 East Camrose. Phone 780-672-2411 and ask for one of the friendly sales professionals.

The CAMROSE BOOSTER, July 5, 2016 – Page 30
More outdoor pickleball courts needed By Lori Larsen The Grr-Kins Pickleball Club members are hoping to procure new outdoor court facilities in an effort to enhance the game and possibly attract more members. In a letter, dated May 26 sent to Camrose City Council the club formally requested the City of Camrose to budget for the construction of additional outdoor court facilities for the game. During the Committee of Whole meeting held on June 13 a large contingent of pickeball club members attended in support of a presentation to council by club president Dean Edwards and vice-president Kevin Schole. “Pickleball is one of the fastest growing sports in North America,” said Schole. “It is played on a court similar in size to a badminton court, with a net close in height to a tennis net. It is more or less a cross between tennis, table tennis and other racket sports.” Using paddles that resemble oversized table tennis paddles and a perforated polymer ball, the sport is played with two to a side on a court approximately a quarter the size of a regulation tennis court. While often viewed as a game played mainly by seniors, pickleball is enjoyed by all ages. “It should be noted that pickleball is included in the physical education curriculum in a lot of schools,” said Schole. The Camrose pickleball club was formed approximately three years ago and has grown to 60 members from Camrose and surrounding area. During winter months
the game is played indoors at Mirror Lake Centre and the Community Centre Field House. “We provide the City with over $6,700 in usage fees at the field house, largely during times when that facility might otherwise be empty,” commented Schole. During summer months the club prefers to play on outdoor courts (space designated by Community Services just north of the Reservoir pump house in Rudy Swanson Park) in order to take advantage of the short lived summer months, sunshine and fresh air. “We can no longer play on top of the outdoor reservoir due to ongoing maintenance issues,” said Schole. “So it appears the tennis courts at the Composite High School will be the only outdoor court facility in the city. “ Schole expressed concern that the Composite High School courts may not be sufficient to accommodate access for all user groups, including the tennis club, individual tennis players, high school and university classes and the pickleball club. “We (Pickleball Club members) think it is time for more courts, so it is our hope that the city will recognize the current situation and begin planning for the construction of an additional outdoor court facility.” Schole described an outdoor facility that will serve multi purposes and a number of people of all ages both within Camrose and outside of Camrose. “It could eventually attract
outdoor revenue through the staging of open tournaments which are getting popular in the Alberta pickleball community.” Outside players bring outside dollars into Camrose.” Councillor Kevin Hycha spoke about his hands on experience during his invited game of pickleball. “I gave it a shot on Saturday and it is a very interesting sport. It is a lot harder than it looks. “I was really impressed with the enthusiasm and that all ages were out that day. It is a sport for everyone.” Hycha then inquired about the specific request for courts. “Are you more interested in an outdoor court or more interested in a new indoor facility? Because I know there is probably ample time and room during the summer in the field house.” Responding to the question, Dean Edwards indicated outdoor courts were preferable due to the fact that the field house (specifically) can become extremely hot especially during warmer summer days. Edwards also indicated that players prefer to be outdoors taking advantage of the summer months. He did state that with a few minor adjustments the field house badminton courts were adequate and somewhat under-utilized from May to Sept. and that the club did use them during inclement summer weather. Other locations were suggested for the outdoor courts such as St. Patrick Catholic School courts, which, according to Edwards, would require windscreens. Councillor David Ofrim
questioned City of Camrose Community Services manager Ryan Poole about the possibility of continuing the use of the courts on the reservoir for the remainder of this season. “It could likely be used for the rest of this season,” replied Poole. Poole explained that the entire surface, not just the micro surface that is repainted, is aging and, as it does so, is creating problems with the reservoir underneath. For that reason the utilities department is requesting recreational activities begin moving off of the surface in order to eventually turn the area into a proper drainage site. “In the short term we could probably work it to have some activities still happening up there,” said Poole. Ofrim suggested another option for the pickleball outdoor games might be in the area west of the golf course. “There’s a piece of pavement there now that could start to bring more sports into that area. A fence could be put up around it and put on some lines.” Edwards explained that the pickleball club had looked at the area but there were concerns about the size and slope of the courts, but that the area did have the benefits of existing washroom facilities and the proximity of the golf club. Poole added, “That was an ideal spot as far as geographically and the amenities that are on site already. “The golf course is open quite late hours and opens early, plus the restaurant is there and all sorts of other amenities. The more you can pack into
one site the more people you can get to that site and the more value that is added to the building that is sitting there. “Ideally that is probably our best location in the city but we would have to almost start from ground zero other than the small pad that is there already,” advised Poole. Mayor Norm Mayer questioned Edwards on the size and approximate cost of the court if a location were found. Edwards responded by saying the size would be that of a tennis court of 60 feet wide and 120 feet long with a possible 5 foot border, reiterating that a full size tennis court would allow for four pickleball courts As for cost Edwards could only guesstimate that it would be at least $100,000. Poole added that recent pricing of the St. Patrick Catholic School courts, which have existing fencing and foundation, priced out at approximately $180,000, and that starting from ground zero would cost more. In conclusion Mayor Mayer proposed an estimate be done on the potential of the golf course location. “In the interim we can talk to somebody about two extra lines at the field house court and whatever else we can do to assist in this.” City manager Malcolm Boyd recommended Community Services work with the pickleball group in bringing back a business case for deliberation at budget, taking the options into consideration.

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.

Solar project on hold By Lori Larsen
With the EnCana Arena solar photovoltaic installation underway a motion was brought forward during the June 13 regular council meeting to approve an installation on City Hall. City manager Malcolm Boyd cited reasons why proceeding with the installation on City Hall at this time may not be the best option. “There is not necessarily a rush to make this (City Hall) the second project. We could take time to step back and look at finishing the project that we have approved with the limited resources that we have to manage it and then come back to council later in the year with a revised look at what number two project could be.” Originally city administration considered five possible projects for solar photovoltaic installation, including the EnCana Arena, City Hall, Fire Hall, Community Centre and the Water Treatment Plant, but only presented EnCana Arena and City Hall to council for consideration due to grant application deadlines. The EnCana Arena project was presented and subsequently approved quickly in order to take advantage of a large funding grant offered via Enmax that had an end of May deadline. The other project brought forward was the City Hall. “The City Hall was the smallest and the token project,” said Boyd. “We saw it as more-a-less the centre piece of city governance and one that we could make a statement with. “Having had some time to reflect on it, there are some resource constraints on how to manage these projects concurrently and they will require some management.” Boyd suggested completing the EnCana project first and using it as a public relations
marketing tool then taking time to consider which of the other four projects would be the best second choice which would allow learnings from the first project to be applied to the next. Councillor Wayne Throndson suggested that taking time to review the other options and avoid any further pressure on administration might be the best option. The motion on the approval of the solar photovoltaic power system installation on City Hall was tabled until the June 20 Committee of Whole and regular council meeting During the regular council meeting on June 20 discussion on the approval of the installation of the City Hall solar photovoltaic system once again focused on delaying the project with councillor Greg Wood making a motion to postpone the matter until budget deliberations. “I think there is a number of capital projects that we are unsure about funding.” Councillor Max Lindstrand questioned city manger Malcolm Boyd as to his concerns with moving ahead on the City Hall installation. Boyd responded with “I have no particular concerns with this project but I do have some concern with the timing and the shortage of resources. We have a vacant GM of infrastructure position and a vacant municipal engineering position. I also have a list of other projects that we have taken on over and above resourced projects that we have in the budget. When we do (another installation) I would like to do it as well as we can and take full advantage of the public relations opportunity.” A motion was carried to postpone the decision on the solar photovoltaic installation at City Hall until budget deliberation.

Honesty, caring and a workplace that feels like home
An employer you can count on
Apply in person with resumé at either Camrose store
By Kevin Sorenson, Crowfoot MP
The federal government and eight provincial governments have signed an agreement in principle to expand the Canada Pension Plan (CPP). If the plan goes ahead, the CPP premium rate will start rising in 2019 and the maximum level of pensionable earnings will go up from $54,900 this year to $82,700 in 2025. All signatories must approve the deal by July 15. Quebec and Manitoba did not sign. Why would I not be supportive of an enhanced CPP? The CPP tax hike will take money from the paychecks of hardworking Canadians and place hundreds of thousands of jobs at risk because employers in a tough economy may not be able to pay their share of a CPP premium hike. The enhancement will not deliver maximum benefits for 40 years (2019-59). A senior citizen today will see no increase in their benefits, yet those approaching retirement will see an increase in their payroll deductions. The Liberals are salivating at getting their hands on the more than $220 billion CPP fund and force it to invest in their government’s infrastructure projects. Until now, the fund itself has always been free to seek the most lucrative returns whether these investments are in Canada or abroad. So, the Liberals are politicizing the CPP fund – using it and its on-going increased revenues provided by employers and workers to finance their infrastructure projects. Canadian employers and employees are going to pay $250 million per year for the Liberal’s CPP ‘enhancement’ measures. From 2019-23, employee and employer premiums will each increase to 5.95 per cent from 4.95 per cent this year. New graduates entering the workforce and all younger workers will have their incomes reduced. It will be harder for them to start saving money immediately and over the course of their working lives. Companies will create fewer jobs, reduce shifts, hours, and have difficulty offering raises for workers. The CPP was introduced in 1966 to address poverty among seniors and has been so successful that today, poverty rates among elderly Canadians has dropped to 3.7 per cent. One-fifth of Canadians have higher incomes after they retire than they were able to earn in the work force due to the total amount they receive annually from the CPP and Old Age Security (OAS).
