Karmen
“Glover International Trucks is a very fast-paced business in the trucking industry. The position we were looking to fill is a very demanding job, and that person needs to be flexible with their day-to-day duties. Having dealt with Lisa and Ken in the past, I reached out to see if they knew of anyone who might fit into our organization in that position. We interviewed a number of candidates and chose to go with Karmen, who has not only stepped up to the challenges, but has been a great asset to our team.” – Kevin Hycha, General Manager, Glover International Trucks-Camrose

REFLECTIONS
Letters to the Editor
by Bonnie Hutchinson Mirrored back
When I was a little girl growing up in Camrose, the jewel now called Mirror Lake was “the dam” – dark dirty water that accumulated when Stony Creek was dammed up. I am old enough to remember when the Town and then the City of Camrose made decisions to keep the area around Stoney Creek and “the dam” as park. This was not an easy sell. It took some imagination to visualize anything other than murky water and scruffy brush in the centre of town. It took vision and persistence to convince others that intangibles like “nature” and “park” were worth more to the municipality than selling the land for “development.” *** I thought of all that as I read an article about the impact of being in nature. I have noticed for a long time that if I go for even a short walk outside I feel better. If my walk includes some time in a natural environment, I feel better yet. Turns out that’s true for most people. The article I read says that, aside from the physical benefits of fresh air and greenery, being in nature has psychological benefits. A growing body of research tells us that… …walking in nature decreases harmful “mental rumination” – that is, going over and over bad feelings and experiences from the past (I had to look it up!) – which is a risk factor for depression… …kids who go to schools with more greenery perform better on tests that require the ability to think… …seeing images of greenery helps performance on challenging cognitive tasks. In short, research proves what some people have known their whole lives – being in nature helps you feel better emotionally and helps you think better. *** Back to Camrose and the jewel that is Mirror Lake. How fortunate that – long before it was fashionable – some visionary councillors and administrators thought it important to keep that area for park, and then to beautify it. (They probably didn’t know they were helping us cognitively and psychologically too!) I remember as the area was kept somewhat natural but with walking trails and other enhancements. Gradually, year by year, the trails were extended, creating more and more places where people could enjoy walking (or running or biking or skiing). Some of my favourite adult memories are of my mom and I walking the paths around Mirror Lake. I also remember when the first swans arrived – named “Hal” and “Faxie” because they were a gift from Halifax. What an enhancement they were to what by then was Mirror Lake. It always delights me when I drive by – or stop – by the Bill Fowler Centre and see children playing, families enjoying ice cream, and people sitting on the benches just enjoying the swans and ducks and water and perhaps the odd muskrat swimming by. *** The article I read pointed out something else. If a natural scene which delights us has litter – even a small amount – that greatly reduces the positive impact of being in nature. In experiments, even a small amount of litter triggered strong and consistent reduction in the “restorativeness” of the scene. It made the research participants feel “unhappy and less calm.” Litter is not just bad for the environment; it’s bad for us psychologically too. *** I know people from the East country who choose to come to Camrose – or stop in Camrose on their way to Edmonton – specifically because they like heading west to that place on Highway 13 just past 51 Street where the view of Mirror Lake opens up. If it happens to be at sunset, that’s even better. Every time I’m driving west towards that spot, I can feel my spirits lift. And every time I have that moment, I say a mental “thank you” to the far-seeing people who looked at what was then a rather ugly scene and could see beauty. Perhaps when we perceive beauty, it is mirrored back to us. May we all have that kind of eyes. *** If you have comments about this column or suggestions for future topics, send a note to Bonnie@BonnieHutchinson.com

The Camrose Booster thanks you for your interest in the letters page and encourages your comments. Urban naturalization
I was pleased to see Camrose City Council on Monday, July 4th agreed to continue with the urban naturalization program. It was initiated by the city as a means to reduce costs, saving taxpayers dollars, but also other benefits were noted. City parks staff and equipment can be reallocated to other projects; increased level of attention given to other areas; as the city grows in size, there is less need to hire new staff and buy new equipment. The Urban Naturalization in Canada: A Policy and Program Guidebook produced by an organization called Evergreen (www.evergreen.ca), lists a number of other benefits.
These include reduced pesticide use and cost of product and labour; improved water and air quality; fostering of environmental stewardship; and improved passive recreation such as walking and birdwatching. There are solutions to the common barriers to urban naturalization. Preference for manicured landscaping can be countered with public education presenting the true economic costs and environmental costs of manicured landscaping. Concerns for public safety can be satisfied with proper design. The city has addressed the concern over fire safety in discussion with the fire department. On the ring road berms, the city is not creating a forest, but trees spaced at intervals. The long grass will help retain snow and rain keeping the south facing slopes much greener than the brown flammable grass seen there during the very dry start to our spring. Lack of political will is often an obstacle. However, city councillors are taking the advice of their staff who have researched the process and have a good understanding of what needs to be done. The experience in both
Edmonton and Calgary has been that it will take a few years for the full benefits of a naturalization program to become apparent. Until the grass has choked out the weeds steps will be needed to control the weeds. Just this past week, I saw city staff doing just that … pulling weeds. Robert Earley, Camrose
Sadly disappointed
Today (July 4) around 3 p.m., I set out to walk around my block heading west and as I turned north along 65th Street, I experienced an attack of vertigo and eventually fell onto the grass with my cane beside me. I heard voices and as I rolled onto my side to get up off the ground saw a young couple walking north along the sidewalk with their dog. They made no query as to why I was on the ground … I was shocked to say the least; such indifference shocked me. What if I’d been having a heart attack? I eventually was able to walk back to my house, just east of the First Baptist church [once the parsonage]. I am disappointed by this occasion! R. P Steeves, Camrose

the shelter during the BVJ parade this year,” said NoraLee Rear, executive director of the Camrose Women’s Shelter, during the Chamber of Commerce luncheon meeting on June 1. Walk a Mile is an award winning International Men’s March, which began in 2001 raising awareness throughout the communities it takes place in, on the causes, effects and remediations to men’s sexualized violence against women.

mile in women’s high heeled shoes. The objective is to have a fun event with a serious message that initiates conversation on the difficult subject of gender relations and men’s sexualized violence against women. “We realize it is a long way to walk and we are encouraging men to wear the shoes as long as they can, but bring an extra pair of shoes with you to change into,” suggested Rear. “The most important part of this walk is that men are walking and standing up

Rosealta Lodge officially opens 40-unit extension By Murray Green
The Bethany Group officially opened the new 40 unit addition of Rosealta Lodge, Rosealta Lodge II, on July 6 with a celebration. The expansion will provide more affordable housing options for low-income seniors in the region. Alberta Minister of Seniors and Housing Lori Sigurdson addressed the guests. “I’m proud of our government’s commitment to seniors and housing, and our partnership with The Bethany Group. Places like Rosealta Lodge II provide opportunities for seniors.” “Every Albertan deserves a safe and affordable place to call home. The new addition to Rosealta Lodge will give Camrose area seniors an opportunity to age in community, close to family, friends and neighbours,” said Sigurdson. The minister was joined by CMHC Affordable Housing Consultant, Kelly Wagar, Wetaskiwin-Camrose MLA Bruce Hinkley, City of Camrose Mayor Norm Mayer, and other representatives from the city and county, as well as board members for the Camrose and Area Lodge Authority (CALA) for the official opening of Rosealta Lodge II. The new part of Rosealta
Lodge was funded by both the government of Canada and Alberta. The project also included upgrading of the fire system in the older part of the lodge, bringing it up to code and providing a safer environment for the residents. “We take pride in providing our residents services that enhance their quality of life and meet an enjoyable standard. We remain committed to our vision and goals, and see the opening of Rosealta Lodge II as paving the way for a better future,” said CALA board chair Max Lindstrand. “We are so pleased to open the addition to our Camrose lodge, Rosealta. With these new, modern rooms, we are able to offer seniors in Camrose and surrounding area safe, affordable housing that includes many of the amenities we’ve come to expect. We thank the governments of Canada and Alberta for supporting us in providing a friendly and inviting space within our lodges for years to come,” added Lindstrand. “Today has been an example of how everyone, the boards, the staff of The Bethany Group, the governments of Canada and Alberta, as well as the municipalities can work together to improve commu-
nities,” said Bethany Group chair, Dr. Odell Olson. “Our government is investing in affordable housing to help create jobs and improve the quality of life for those who need it most. Thanks to the combined efforts of our partners, we are able to give a helping hand to individuals in need and, in doing so, we are contributing to the economic and social well-being of the entire community in Camrose,” said Jean-Yves Duclos, federal Minister of Families, Children and Social Development and Minister Responsible for Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation. The Governments of Canada and Alberta contributed more than $9.6 million to the project though the Investment in Affordable Housing Agreement. The addition includes a new dining room and laundry facility. It will also help provide homes for residents of the Stoney Creek Lodge, which is being decommissioned after 56 years of service. Renovations were also completed on the existing Rosealta Lodge, including upgrades to the fire and safety system.
Submitted Jude Thompson of Daysland and Jacquie Dietrich of Halkirk were the winners of the Alberta 55 plus Zone 4 Cribbage Challenge Cup held on April 21 in Halkirk.

Holden traded to Rangers By Murray Green
Colorado Avalanche defenceman Nick Holden was traded to the New York Rangers during the 2016 NHL Entry Draft on June 25. The former Camrose Kodiaks player was sent to the Rangers for a fourth round draft pick in 2017. Holden started his junior hockey with the Kodiaks and then went to the Sherwood Park Crusaders of the Alberta Junior Hockey League. He moved on to the Chilliwack Bruins where he scored 22 goals as a defenceman. After not being drafted, the determined Holden signed with the Columbus Blue Jackets and played with the Syracuse Crunch and Springfield Indians before joining the Blue Jackets for five games in 2010-11. He had another brief stint with Columbus in 2012-13 before signing with the Avalanche for the 2013-14 season. He played three full seasons with Colorado prior to the trade. Holden and his wife Angela (nee Bergstrom) have two children named Parker and Carter. During his tenure with Colorado he purchased tickets to every Avalanche home game and donated them to numerous children’s charity organizations.

Covenant president impressed with St. Mary’s By Murray Green
Covenant Health president and CEO Patrick Dumelie visited St. Mary’s Hospital Camrose on June 24 during a tour of all the centres in the province. He didn’t have any concerns about Camrose. In fact, he was gathering information to share with other Covenant Health facilities that St. Mary’s has already implemented. “This is the fun part of the job, getting out and meeting the staff. They share things they are really proud of and also the challenges they endure,” said Dumelie. “It keeps me grounded and also allows me to see the great progress we are making in our facilities.” He often gathers ideas from Camrose staff. “I’m impressed with the level of engagement with the staff, community board and the community itself. This facility has always been an intricate part of the community. We are proud of the large number of services that are offered on site. The staff have passion for what they do and for serving others. This is a great site that is connected to the community,” said Dumelie. “For the size of this hospital, it has a high number of services, a wide variety of specialists and a wellengaged medical staff. Most importantly, it’s the engaging staff that translates into high quality services.” St. Mary’s works with the community to find what the needs are and how to offer those services within Camrose. “They find ways to stretch that mighty dollar further, while ensuring that people are receiving the services that they need,” said Dumelie. “The things we are focused on are providing what we can within the constraints of the facility.” The president hinted that the hospital may have to expand in the future, but wouldn’t put a timeline on that notion. “As we work with

the community, we look at what other services we could provide. We are working with Cherylyn (site administrator Antymniuk) to see where we can fill in the gaps.” Caring for seniors is one of the topics. “We are looking at how we can become more senior friendly and what that would look like,” she added. “When seniors come through emergency, we want to better serve their needs. We want to look at continuum care and how we can help them as they go back into the community. We want to have conversations with local pharmacists and make sure care is carried on after patients leave the hospital. We want to connect patients without doctors, or those having trouble getting a physician, to a clinic and have a scheduled appointment in place before they leave the hospital,” Antymniuk said. “My leadership team pushes me to do more and they are amazing.” The community board is pushing in a good way because they see a need. “It’s all about serving others,” she added. “When I’m approached for new equipment, or extra funding it’s that they’re asking for resources so they can really support the community. They
really see the needs,” said Dumelie. “They’re not asking for more all the time. It’s looking at what we have and taking stock and seeing how we can re-prioritize and find ways we can stretch our resources. It’s something that we’re called to do in our mission of service and part of that service is making sure we use our resources to their fullest capacity,” he continued. Balancing the budget is one thing, but how to most effectively use the resources of people, information, buildings and finances are other important factors. “With Cherylyn here, I know this hospital is in good hands. She is a great spokesperson for this facility. If you don’t have someone pushing you, then you don’t have that same drive to always do better. She pushes us in a good way,” he pointed out. “It’s all about partnerships. We need to look at really innovative and creative ways to serve people in need. We’re all working together to innovate, find solutions and share, not just with Covenant Health, but across the province and even nationally. The collaboration can only benefit the community and hopefully take pressure off urban hospitals.” Covenant Health board
chair and former premier Ed Stelmach is no stranger to St. Mary’s. He said St. Mary’s is important to acute care in the province during his visit. “St. Mary’s is a great facility and they have a good staff. I haven’t heard one complaint and because of my former position, everyone has my phone number,” Stelmach joked. “It’s all positive. “We’re focusing now, as a board, on the marginal people as well and how we can improve in mental illness with some of the addiction issues that predict some of the physical health of the individual.” The economic downturn hasn’t helped deliver health services. “We’ve committed to working with Alberta Health Services and the Alberta government to work through these difficult times. Certainly there will be challenges, but we’ll look at operational best practices, look at some other operations that may be more efficient,” Stelmach added. “We’re here to work with the government and be a valuable partner and see how we can best offer a wide range of services to Albertans who are under our care,” he said. Covenant Health is going back to more preventative ways to care for patients.

Further enhancement By Lori Larsen
As part of the continuing City of Camrose Naturalization Project and following the planting of trees on Camrose Drive, the Camrose Wildlife and Greenspace Stewardship Society in conjunction with the City of Camrose will be hosting naturalization enhancement events on Thursday, July 14 and 21 from 5 to 6 p.m. “We are hoping to enhance this area to help make it look more aesthetically appealing during these early stages of development,” said Wildlife and Greenspace Stewardship coordinator Katherine Rogers.
Residents are invited to come out and help by pulling out long grass surrounding the trees which will encourage quicker and healthier growth of the trees. On July 14, the Camrose Wildlife and Greenspace Society is hosting a Nature in Camrose: Past, Present, and Future evening at Stoney Creek Centre at 7 p.m. If you are interested in attending either or both of the naturalization enhancement evenings contact Katherine Rogers at email: klrogers@ ualberta.ca or by telephone at 780-672-0544.

Grief is a normal human response to loss whether that loss be that of a family member, friend or associate, a beloved pet, a home, employment or even a loss to your way of life. For many grieving is supported with the help of loved ones, friends, and organizations such as churches but for others who may or may not have those support systems or are struggling beyond that help, professional assistance is literally only a phone call away. The Hospice Society of Camrose and District recently announced the addition of the new grief and bereavement coordinator Bill Harder. “Presently anyone in our catchment area needing to access some kind of grief counselling or support is really limited to one grief group in Killam that meets twice a year, one grief group in Camrose that meets twice a year and one grief group in Tofield,” noted Harder. These particular organizations are not operated by the Hospice society but are their own entities and, as such, the Camrose group is operated by St. Mary’s Hospital. “In addition to that there are about six people counselling in town that are interested in grief work.” Statistics compiled from Burgar Funeral Home and Weber Funeral Home pertinent to the Camrose catchment area (excluding Wetaskiwin) indicated there were approximately 400 deaths a year in Camrose and area. “If you just extrapolate that every person who dies has at least five people in their world who are really going to feel that weight, such as family members and friends, that is 2,000 people that have entered into a really hard state of grief, this year alone,” explained Harder. And grief does not end after one year. The second year can be as challenging and, in many cases, more challenging for anyone grieving, which increases the number of people grieving to 4,000 in the first two years and 6,000 in the first three years according to Harder. “Really, that is a minimal number, many people have many more people in their intimate circle that may be impacted heavily. We could easily be looking at 10,000 people in Camrose and area today that are really affected by some level of grief.” Harder’s role as grief and bereavement coordinator is to assess the needs for support for grief, specifically grief over death. After that he will begin building a response to the perceived needs in partnership with the Hospice stakeholders which include hospitals, clinics, long term care facilities, Camrose PCN, funeral homes, churches, counsellors and, the largest stakeholders, the end users (grieving). “Our hospice is a young entity, relative to other hospices
in Canada. Some are 40 to 60 years old and we are about six years old,” commented Harder. “So far we have plans for the hospice house and the initial work of fundraising and acquiring land is just engaged.” The hospice has two parttime employees and close to 100 trained volunteers. “Twice a year we run a volunteer training program with approximately a dozen participants each time.” The first project for Harder with the Hospice is a Grief Walking Support Group beginning on July 20. “We will meet on Wednesdays from 9:30 to 10:30 a.m. at the Chamber of Commerce Visitor Centre,” said Harder. “No pre-registration is necessary and there is no cost.” Anyone over the age of 18 years old who is grieving is welcome to join the group. “There is no requisite to talk. Just come and be in the presence of people, knowing that others there are experiencing some symptoms of grief. We will walk around Mirror Lake in the company of fellow grievers.” The next concerns Harder wishes to evaluate are those of targeted support groups, specifically for children and for women who have experienced a perinatal death, neonatal death or miscarriage of a baby. “Miscarriage is a serious grieving issue in our community,”remarked Harder. “There were roughly 60 miscarriages this year in Camrose based on feedback from doctor visits. These 60 women, for the most part, won’t be acknowledged in their grief nor is there any other kind of support group currently running in Camrose for this and it is very complex grief.” Harder referred to this type of grief as disenfranchised, meaning the community or the culture does not acknowledge it as legitimate. “There is some cultural shame still around women not being able to carry a baby to term. “It is further complicated by the fact that there is no support. They go to the hospital, (in some cases after the fact) get treated and sent home. Often family and friends may not even know the woman was pregnant so there is this internal hurt they can never share with somebody.” Harder suggested that forming a group for these grieving women would involve partnerships with nurses and physicians at Camrose PCN who would in turn direct these women to the support available to them. “The next group (we want to concern ourselves with) would be palliative death grief and that is the bulk of our numbers of the 400 deaths this year,” said Harder. “Out of 400 deaths about 85 percent were palliative, in other words we knew it was coming; they were sick with something, most of which was cancer.”
Statistics indicate that of the thousands of grievers only 10 percent will seek support from a professional, support group or a counsellor. “Many people have reasonably good support groups and they will get by with family and friends or they are part of a support group of some sort and that suffices for them. “But there is 10 percent that will really struggle with something called complicated grief which is the inability to navigate the symptoms of grief; people get stuck in one place in the grief cycle and they don’t continue to move through the cycle.” Harder said that there are approximately 400 people in Camrose grieving in the first two years, who would benefit from support from outside sources but at present there is really not much available. He is working on a presentation he hopes to give to schools as well as to any adult groups interested in learning more about grief. “It will take a look at some of our rich folk tales that deal with death and grieving as an entry point for conversation and then opening it up, especially with children. “I want to get into the schools to do some presentations because child grief needs to be treated uniquely from adult grief and there are not a lot of resources for that in Camrose.” “All of this is the desire to normalize grieving and make it acceptable for people to say they are having trouble with it and want access to resources.” Harder has a B.A. in sociology, a Bachelor of Biblical Arts and Master of Divinity. He is a certified Compassion Fatigue Educator and conducts compassion fatigue education and wellness education to people in caregiving roles such as teachers, first responders, social workers and funeral directors. Currently he is certifying as a grief and loss counsellor. He is also trained in addiction and suicide intervention and continues to offer his services for funerals for people who may not be associated with any religious body and conducts hospital and nursing home visits. He served as a pastor, most recently with the Bawlf Lutheran Parish. Harder is available for some consultation for people struggling with grief on Tuesday mornings but his primary role is to assess the needs and resources available to people dealing with grief.

Areas of Camrose going au naturel By Lori Larsen
The City of Camrose is sporting a more natural look in selected low or no public use green spaces areas as a result of the Parks Naturalization Program. During the July 4 Committee of Whole meeting City of Camrose Community Services general manager Ryan Poole and parks director Chris Clarkson made a presentation to council regarding the Naturalization Projects throughout the city. “Based on public feedback we have been receiving regarding the naturalization we want to provide some of the reasonings and benefits for the project,” said Poole. Specifically referring to the City of Edmonton and the City of Calgary, Poole explained that many municipalities are already well into naturalizing areas within their cities and that after years (anywhere from five to eight) the natural trees, shrubs and grasses have grown and the areas are looking quite attractive. “The first year or two or three the grasses take a while to settle in and the trees are still small,” said Poole. Poole explained that naturalization is the process of turning a low to no public use area into its natural grass
stage. It involves letting natural grasses, trees and shrubs native to Alberta grow, all the while spending less time and resources on manicuring the area. The City will still be expected to control noxious weeds, garbage and keep the areas as tidy as possible. Poole stated the benefits to naturalization are two fold. “The environmental benefits include reduced emissions from equipment and transportation of equipment to and from sites and on sites, the benefits of having longer grasses to reduce erosion and noise and the benefit of having green plants which improve air quality. “The economic benefits include reducing staff time required at certain locations. We can actually reallocate without having to hire more staff and also reallocate to existing parks and locations that may require a little higher maintenance.” Poole added that relocating staff can save on equipment time and maintenance. Specifically the City will not need to purchase another mower and will continue to use the same number of units, therefore saving money in operators, equipment, and maintenance costs.
Lori Larsen, Camrose Booster City of Camrose Naturalization project along Camrose Drive is aimed at encouraging the growth of natural vegetation.
Councillor Max Lindstrand spoke on the pros of the project. “To me the environmental arguments, the lungs of Camrose if you will, the production of oxygen and the reduction of CO2 emissions, are compelling arguments. “Also as the city grows it is going to become more obvious that it is going to cost a fortune to maintain all of the spaces in that pristine way we are used to seeing.” Addressing concerns
City of Camrose Community Services parks direc-
tor Chris Clarkson addressed concerns from citizens with regards to weed control, wildlife, fire hazards, and the growth of the seedlings planted by the City and volunteers. He indicated that mowing and spraying weeds where necessary will continue. “Eventually the long grass will choke out the weeds and the final effect will be a beautiful and natural landscape with very minimal upkeep. “There is no evidence of an increase of rodents or snakes
in these areas. Plus the area is not large enough to harbor deer or coyotes,” said Clarkson. He added that the trees planted do not grow berries which would attract deer. When asked about the potential fire hazard, Clarkson responded, “The area is too small to be a fire hazard plus it has a fire break on the other side. However if we ever had extreme dry weather, the option is still there for us to mow a larger buffer.” With regards to the growth and health of the seedlings planted, Clarkson stated, “The seedlings planted are going to be monitored very closely. “The grass will not choke out the seedling trees. There is mulch around the seedlings which holds the water and they will be watered when necessary. They are all native plants so they can withstand our climate without a lot of upkeep.” The City is asking residents to be patient and give the project time to grow and show its real potential. For more information, contact Chris Clarkson by email at cclarkson@camrose.ca or by telephone at 780-672-9195.
Taking in the posies and pastries
Lori Larsen, Camrose Booster Ashleigh Dickson fashions Victorian apparel as part of the unique experience offered to visitors of the Camrose Heritage Railway Station and Park and 13 heritage gardens. By Lori Larsen
If you are looking for a relaxing way to spend a sunny afternoon the Camrose Heritage Railway Station and Park offers a beautiful retreat and a plethora of history. “We have 13 heritage gardens that have developed over time,” said Station and Park director Glenys Smith. Station gardens, as they are referred, began early in history with CPR. Gardens were planted on the sides of the stations by the station agents as a method of attracting pioneers to the area. “They (prospective pioneers) thought if they can grow flowers, they can grow wheat,” explained Glenys. The gardens around the Camrose Station are designed with specific purpose in mind. “The gardens in front are
patterned after a garden in Victoria Beach, Manitoba.” The Station’s Victory garden is fashioned after those of the same name that began during the First and Second World War as a way of making sure the majority of the produce being grown was given towards the war effort. “Other gardens developed as we went,” said Glenys. “The Morgan Garden Railway was the first garden we built.” The Morgan Garden Railway has a working model train that winds its way in and around built to scale buildings and a host of other miniature representations including dinosaurs and classic vehicles. Other gardens throughout the grounds offer guests a tranquil place to sit and read one of the books provided
in the free library bookstand or just listen to the birds as they flit among the beautiful blooms. Glenys, along with 23 other volunteers, keeps everything at the Railway Station running smoothly. Some work on maintaining the gardens or collectibles, some bake the goodies for the Tea Room, while others chose to work the many events hosted by the Station. “Something new we are involved in this year on Aug. 3 with the University of Alberta, Augustana is the Seeds for the Soul series. We will be introducing them (attendees) to the organic process we are doing to develop the grass lands at Meeting Creek,” said Glenys. The Station is very involved in educating people in the development of organic growing including a green school program for grades four and five during May and June. “The green school is very hands-on which makes the students happy and joyful. The children feel connected to the land and this historical place.” It is not hard to figure out why the children would feel joy as one tours through the array of flowers. “I look over on a Sunday (the Smiths live adjacent to the Railway Station) and see people coming taking pictures, walking through the gardens,” smiled Glenys. “It is very well used.”

AIOLI MAKES ALL FOOD TASTE BETTER! Aioli is traditionally prepared with olive oil (unlike mayonnaise, which is usually made with a more neutral-tasting oil like canola.) The olive oil adds fruitiness and tempers the garlic’s intensity.
Simple Aioli
Bridget
Vinesation 1 Garlic clove Owner 1 Egg yolk 1 Tbsp. Vinesation Sicilian Lemon Vinegar Pinch of Dry mustard 3/4 cup Vinesation Extra Virgin Olive Oil (such as Arbequina) • Flaky sea salt Food Processor Method: Combine the garlic, egg yolk, and the vinegar together in the bowl of blender or food processor and pulse until the mixture is fully combined. With the machine running on low, slowly begin to add the olive oil starting with just a few drops. Once the first few drops are emulsified, begin to drizzle in the remaining oil. Extreme patience must be taken with this slow process, as too much olive oil poured in at once will cause the sauce to break. Continue to pulse as the oil emulsifies with the yolk mixture and forms a white creamy mixture. Season to taste with sea salt and enjoy. **Please note: This recipe contains raw egg yolks. If you have a compromised immune system, you can use pasteurized eggs for this recipe. Variations: Chipotle, Basil, Truffle, Roasted Garlic - These recipes are in store.

BRCF reflects on a great year of building By Murray Green
The Battle River Community Foundation held an open house to share information on how it helped make good things happen in Camrose and the surrounding communities over the past year. BRCF chair Vivianne Grue shared the results of the efforts in 2015. “Our earnings were $853,000 and we received $999,000 from donors to build our endowment. We were able to grant $957,000 from the previous year’s earnings as well as some from flow-through funds,” Grue explained. “This is possible because community minded people have come forward to establish funds with the firm belief that a community foundation is a worthy vehicle to help their community, now and into the future.” Since its inception in 1995, to the end of 2015, the foundation has delivered close to $4 million in grants to worthwhile initiatives throughout the Battle River area. Through the generosity of donors, and the hard work and dedication of the board and staff, assets have grown to more than $11.5 million by the end of 2015. “Over the last 21 years, we have learned that our donors come from all walks of life. They have unique charitable interests and financial circumstances,” said Grue. “They all have a heart for giving.” In 2016, the granting cycle will be able to provide approximately $700,000 in grants to worthy causes. The BRCF exists to meet

the wishes of community minded individuals wishing to give back to help others prosper and grow and thus to foster strong healthy communities. Donors Carmen and John Person shared their thoughts on giving back to the community. “It has been said that the giving market is highly inefficient. However, both Carmen and I believe BRCF gives from the heart, but uses its intelligence. It manages its donations much like an investment portfolio,” said John. “They do their homework and research. Charitable giving is a form of investment.” They believe the BRCF makes each donation count. “The Foundation thinks globally, but acts locally. We have made great strides with knowledge and information. Forgetting about our own local communities can become easy. Remember local charities when supporting others. Carmen and I think the BRCF does an excellent job of spreading its funds,” John suggested. “People like David Stolee, who led the Bethany long term care centre, had an engaging collaborative style when I worked as a summer student at Bethany,” said Carmen. “His manner, his grace and his way impacted me and stayed with me. When my dad died, I met Alver Person at Burgar Funeral Home, who collaborated to help establish the BRCF. They already established a community of caring about others. It started to
become obvious how I too could give back,” shared Carmen. Margaret Holliston spoke on behalf of the Camrose and District Support Services, which has received assistance from the BRCF. She became the CDSS executive director in 2007. “We have a lot in common with BRCF. In this case you have helped us make good things happen in the community. We fund programs as we are able to. It is a relief when planning services and a budget, that we have other sources of revenue funding, including grants from the BRCF,” said Holliston. “Our first experience with BRCF 10 years ago allowed us to print thousands of Are You Safe cards with stickers of telephone numbers of agencies and helplines that people affected by family violence could call. The cards reminded people that there is help,” stated Holliston. “The second project was on behalf of the Camrose Senior Coalition. It was a three pronged project centered around elder care and aging in place. They were thirsty for information. Supplementary funding came from the BRCF. The guide is located at various waiting rooms in the area, or can be downloaded from our web site,” informed Holliston. “We have already received a lot of positive feedback. That was made possible with the grant from the BRCF. Thank you so much for the sustainability.”

Jones honours BRCF’s involvement in rural areas

Dale Jones shared his enthusiasm for the Battle River Community Foundation at an open house to celebrate the accomplishments. “The generosity in our communities is absolutely amazing. As a charity auctioneer, I get to see the generosity first hand,” said Jones. “The BRCF is dear to my heart. “A new word came to me that women are familiar with. It is called multitasking. I’ve watched women with children and in so many situations. The ability to accomplish many things at the same time is incredible. I came into the house the other night and she (his wife) was mad at me for six different things—all at the same time. I appreciate the fact she can accomplish so many things at the same time,” he joked. “The BRCF is a multitask organization. It has broken barriers. The Anderson family was celebrated as Community Builders and they are good friends of mine. I heard the talk around town about how Camrose businessmen were
coming out to celebrate the Andersons. They talked about how they were going to take our money back to Camrose to spend,” continued Jones. “Today if you go into the County of Flagstaff and mention BRCF, people know the difference this organization has made in each of our communities. The barrier has been broken down.” The word community is now a much wider area because of the BRCF. “Community is no longer just the home town with the same hockey and baseball team. I love the task they (BRCF) complete as the Community Builder event. It’s all about honouring people and it is so important to our communities. It gives young people a sense that we really do care about the future.” Jones said it is important for grandparents and parents to teach children about giving, philanthropy and compassion for others. “Sometimes we fail to remember that they need to be taught. I am starting to see grandchildren coming to these events and it is important to teach children.
Very few organizations put so much into the future. I love that,” added Jones. “My favourite task that the Foundation does is it allows me to see where the needs are and how they are met. I read the local Camrose Booster and I watch and see the needs that come along the way. I had the privilege to talk to Blain (Fowler) about the needs in the community. My community is now my vision. BRCF helps those needs that may fall through the cracks. Our communities are always changing. The needs are changing. I know several families that have moved in that have trouble reading in their own language, let alone in English and I know the Foundation has helped,” Jones said. “I know what they have done. They have done so much and I’m glad they recognize those that should be honoured. BRCF has had 20 very successful years. I want to thank the BRCF. You have honoured the past, you have embraced the present and have envisioned a great future.”

Travelling arts exhibition on display By Murray Green
The Alberta Foundation for the Arts Travelling Exhibition Program is bringing the ...rattled to the bone, display to the Chuck MacLean Arts Centre until July 20. American singer Ray Stevens sang that “Everything is Beautiful” back in 1970. Art had taken that approach, but also recognizes that beauty is in the eye of
the beholder and that what is beautiful is open to personal opinion. Artists were called to create a display that searches for what is beautiful. Alberta artists express through exposition and visual imagery their thoughts on the theme. More than 40 artists accepted the challenge demonstrating that the perusal
of beauty is still a goal for many. At the same time, true beauty is still in the eye of the beholder. The Arts Centre is open from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. on weekdays and hours vary on the weekends. For more information and weekend hours contact Jane Cherry-Lemire at 780672-9949.

Rural program for children still going strong
By Lori Larsen
With summer now upon us and school officially out many parents are hearing the common complaint from their children, “I’m bored.” For children over the age of five and living in the rural areas of Camrose, the Camrose and District Support Services (CDSS) Rural Community Program Summer in the Park program answers that call to boredom. Rural Community Programs director Clarence Hastings sincerely speaks of the program and the many benefits it offers to the participants and their parents. “Summer in the Park is a free program that provides something locally for rural families,” said Hastings. The program offers rural parents a place close to home to take their children so they can engage in fun but meaningful activities with other children, all the while allowing the parents some time to catch up on other responsibilities or take a much needed time out for themselves. The program runs Monday to Friday (excluding weekends and Civic Holiday) in Bawlf (July 4 to 13), Bittern Lake (July 14 to 22), Kingman (July 25 to 29), Hay Lakes (Aug. 3 to 12), Ferintosh (Aug. 15 to 19), and New Norway (Aug. 22 to 26) and offers ongoing registration. The program started in Rosalind 20 years ago as safety park program. Rosalind no longer participates in the program in a large part due to the closing of the school in the community and a lack of school aged participants. “We were in Rosalind on Saturday, July 2 as a one off to the program with about 60 to 70 children in attendance,” remarked Hastings.
Lori Larsen, Camrose Booster The Summer in the Park Program offers rural children ages five and up an opportunity to get out and participate in supervised games and crafts. Fifteen children from Bawlf and area put their handprints on the program’s banner. Left to right back row, Katherina Yestrau, Neveah Lamb, Colin Boudreau, Chevy Masson, Chantell Yestrau, Jorja Craig, Grace Guillemette, Jasmine Yestrau, front row, Tiffany Yestrau, Nia Hughes, William and Luke McGhie-Keats, Parker Schmidt and Willow Rattray. Standing are program leaders Lauren Matiushyk and Vanessa Gratrix, missing from photo was Xander Hurteau.
“They used to run sun safety, bike safety, farm safety those types of things and had some pretty interesting speakers and presenters come out and talk with the children.” At the time funding was obtained through FCSS (Family and Community Support Services) for safety oriented initiatives, but since a change in the act, 10 years ago, the support for safety initiatives was no longer available. “When I took over the program and because it changed I needed to find a different spin because I knew that the support was essential for those rural communi-
ties and for those children and parents,”said Hastings. “At the time bullying actually started to become quite an invergence kind of subject. “So I did some pretty extensive and exhaustive research into trying to find something that was going to fit, that was comprehensive and that the children could do in a fun way as opposed to just sitting in a classroom learning.” Summer in the Park combines fun games and crafts, discussions and some free time with lessons on anti bullying infused throughout and is based on the program Don’t Laugh at Me by Peter Yarrow
length about why he chose not to support the refurbishment of the ski jump, but would support some form of commemorative alternative. “I support everything else that has been talked about–the cultural part, the historical part and the public art part and I think we can accomplish all those things in a better fashion.” Sears spoke about stories he had heard from different members of the community about the ski jump and Nordic sports of Camrose. “Keeping that ski jump will not keep those stories, but a museum where we can get those stories on tape, a facility where people can come in ten years from now and hear those stories will.” Sears voiced his concern over who would ultimately be responsible for the ski jump, should it remain. “It belongs to the city and the city will be responsible for whatever maintenance or upkeep is required in the future. As someone who represents the City, I
can’t commit the City to something down the road.” Sears concluded by commending the individuals who worked on the proposal to refurbish and repurpose the ski jump but felt that further postponement of the decision on the future of the ski jump may only provide false hope, depending on what the final decision might involve. Councillor Wayne Throndson agreed with councillor Sears that an alternative vision to enhance the valley and commemorate the contributions of the Nordic Society and Camrose forefathers could be pursued. A motion was made and carried that administration be authorized to proceed with tenders for the demolition of the ski jump. Another motion was made and carried to form a committee comprised of council members, the public and administration to explore opportunities to commemorate the ski hill site and possible expansion of the Stoney Creek Centre in conjunction with the development of that area.
Ski jump fate decided By Lori Larsen
After much debate from both sides of the jump, a motion put forward at the July 4 regular council meeting to authorize the Camrose Nordic Park Society to pursue funding resources to enhance the appearance of the ski jump based on Phase One, and that any changes to the purpose of the ski jump be subject to council’s approval and with the authorization to be in effect to Sept. 1, 2017, was defeated. In September 2015, a motion in regards to the disposition of the ski jump was tabled until the regular council meeting of June 20. During the June 20, meeting representatives from the Camrose Nordic Park Society spoke on their plans to repurpose the ski jump and the tabled motion from September 2015 was raised from the table for discussion. A motion was then made that the matter of the future of the ski jump be tabled until the July 4 council meeting. During the July 4 meeting councillor Bill Sears spoke in
Productions and Educator for Social Responsibility. “It talks about tolerance, respect, bullying and anti bullying techniques,” explained Hastings. “Hopefully some of the children will take some of these skills away and be able to apply them to any environment later.” The two in-field supervisors were selected after interviewing candidates and, in Hastings’ words, seemed like a perfect fit for each other. Lauren Matiushyk is from Armena and is a student at the University of Alberta, Augustana majoring in Kinesiology through a Bachelor of Science. She was a lifeguard and taught
swimming lessons and adores working with children. Vanessa Gratrix is from Daysland where she graduated this year from high school. She will be attending Prairie College. She gained experience working with children at various camps and was excited to be selected to do this program and work with children. Hastings remarked about the employees selected for the program. “I have run this program for 10 years now and every year I am just amazed with the quality of the candidates.” On speaking of the success of the program, Hastings related how the program had come full circle when last year they hired a county girl who had been a participant of the program when she was a child. In the event of inclement weather an indoor space is provided by every community where the program operates. “We have had well over 350 participants every year for the past 10 years,” said Hastings. “Our board is made up of two city councillors, two county councillors and a village representative. “Together we are building more caring children who will grow up to be ethical and compassionate citizens,” said Hastings.

Heather was a stay-at-home Mom with her babies, Sophia, Olivia and Amelia. As the girls got older, Heather started thinking it might be nice to find a job. She talked with Sebastien. She knew he really enjoyed his job, found it challenging, fulfilling and rewarding in many ways. She thought she would like to learn the business, too. That was nearly three years ago. She started as a part-time sales consultant, which soon became full-time. She really enjoys meeting customers and working with Sebastien; they have an ongoing friendly competition on who can be the better salesperson.

They ‘wrote the book’ on great customer service
There has been a lot written about the importance of teamwork, about being cooperative, communicating well, collaborating, being part of the solution and not the problem. Geri Ferner and Chris Cameron could have written that book. They don’t have MBA degrees from a business college, but they do have that unmistakable can-do attitude that their customers really appreciate. Fifteen years ago they began working together, managing the operations of Camrose’s original full-service hotel. But they didn’t start out in management roles; they earned them, working their separate ways up through the ranks. They’ve washed dishes, served in the restaurant, dining room, lounge and nightclub; they worked as night managers, each of them learning the skills to become managers. Now, as they talk about their roles at the hotel, there’s a natural, easy friendliness between them gained over the years, over the hundreds of banquets they’ve coordinated, the staffing schedules, the training, the supervising, and, of course, the thousands of conversations they’ve
Geri Ferner
had with customers, some of whom come into the hotel three times a day. They both agree their favorite part of the job is working with their customers. It’s what drew them to the hospitality business in the first place. Geri started 27 years ago, fresh out of high school, working in the nightclub. Several years later, she was night manager and then manager. Chris followed a similar path. She began working part-time in the nightclub while attending Augustana and liked the work so much, she decided on a career in hospitality. Now they work in the same office at desks that face each other. Sometimes they finish each other’s sentences. Sometimes they laugh at exactly the same time. They share a similar sense of humor. They’re committed to excellent customer service. They enjoy the diversity each workday brings, the many different people Chris they encounter and the situations which Cameron arise. If you’re ready to start planning an event and want it to run as smoothly as possible, give Chris or Geri a call today. They will respond as one.

Saskatoon pie baking contest returns
Johnathan Doig January 2, 1981 ~ July 8, 2016
By Murray Green
It’s time to find your grandmother’s favourite saskatoon pie recipe to share with others. The seventh annual Battle River Watershed Alliance Saskatoon Pie Contest will be held on Saturday, July 23 during the Camrose and District Farmers’ Market at the Duggan Mall. David Samm, along with other guest judges, will be sampling the pies to determine a winner. Everyone will be able to sample the pies after the judges. Bring your pie to the Farmers’ Market between 9 and 11 a.m. on Saturday (judging begins at 11 a.m. and public judging starts at noon). You could win fabulous prizes. There are some rules to follow and you can view those before you start baking. Homemade crust and saskatoons are a must. Call 1-888-672-0276, email jenna@battleriverwatershed. ca or visit website www. battleriverwatershed.ca/piecontest for more information. Judges from the community will award the best pie based on the judges decision and a People’s Choice award. The general public will be invited to sample the pies and judge for themselves who they think has the best pie. The winner of the baked pie contest may be asked to bake more for the Watershed Festival in August. If someone would like to enter the contest, but is unable to attend the event on July 23, he or she can drop off the pie the day before at the Battle River Watershed Alliance office. Most people love saskatoons, so they enjoy eating samples. For more information on the rules of the contest, visit the Saskatoon Pie Contest event on the Battle River Watershed Alliance Facebook page, visit website www. battleriverwatershed.ca/ pie-contest, or phone 780672-0276. Saskatoon berries were selected as the prime ingredient because they can easily be found across the prairies and at many u-pick berry farms. The annual Watershed Festival is slated for Saturday, Aug. 20 at Miquelon Lake Provincial Park.

Not everyone gets to write their own obituary, but when you are told just days after your 35th birthday you have terminal brain cancer, you kind of get to do whatever you want. I was born in January 1981 in Cardston, Alberta to an already rowdy bunch, spearheaded by Ronald and Sharon Doig. Growing up with seven brothers and sisters was quite the experience, and I still have the broken ribs to prove it. Our family relocated to Camrose when I was a small kid and I spent most of my life here. I left for a short bit, but once I met my other half, we decided to come back, get married and start our family. I have a huge family and dear friends who I am leaving, but not to mourn me, rather to celebrate the life I lived and the love I have shared. For as Emily Dickinson put it, “Unable are the loved to die, for love is immortality.” Left to keep my memory alive so my time on this earth does not cease to exist are as follows, and in no particular ranking of favoritism: My mom, Sharon Doig of Calgary, and her mom Nan Kenney of Strathmore; father-in-law and mother-in-law Pam and Mike Wiwchar of Horsefly, BC; numerous nieces and nephews: Kiara and Karly, children of Shauneen and Todd Neumen of Calgary, Elenor and Marley, children of Shane and Jennifer Doig of Calgary, Michael and Tristan, children of Michael Sr. and Christina Wiwchar of Edmonton, Chloe, another child of Michael Sr. and Holly Wiwchar of Edmonton, Liet and Rohan, children of Tyrell and Meira Doig of Calgary, Jessica, child of Adam and Nicole Doig of Calgary, Erik and Willow, children of Dan and Kristina Beyaert of Calgary, Helix, Isabeau, Ciaus, Lucian, Matio and Adanna, children of Trevor and Tiffany Doig of Camrose, Jacob, Aaron, and Daniel, children of Mark and Carla Kenney of Tees. I also have numerous aunts, uncles and cousins, too many to mention, all of whom I am grateful for and leave behind. Hopefully they will carry on memories of me and my family. I kept my circle of friends quite small over the years, because they are all I needed, and have proven their friendship through this journey, and for that I am grateful. Thank you Dylan Melzer, Jamie Younger and Les Farness. I also am very grateful for the last eight years at Border Paving and all the great people I have met there. I truly know I would have been a lifer there as it was a great place to work, and the shop boys were my family away from my family. Last but not least, I leave my two wonderful, amazing, inspiring, uplifting, children Elizabeth Ellen and Nicholes Michael Doig. I have no doubt in my mind they will carry on my memory like champs as one is the spitting image of me and the other one has my feisty spirit. I let you guess who is who. My wife … Jolene Doig … Honestly, words can’t be put in this paragraph to describe her or how I feel about her. Every minute of every day for the last ten years I would think I was the luckiest man in the world, and now I am the luckiest man in the universe … It may not be a happy ending, but man, our love is one hell of a story. I do not want a traditional funeral service; I would rather a celebration of my life and the people who brought so much joy come together one last time. I will then be cremated and be a pain in my brothers’ butts one more time, as I will make them hike up to a very special childhood place to bury my ashes. My celebration will take place from 2:00 to 4:00 p.m. on July 13, 2016 at the Best Western Resort in Camrose, Alberta. In lieu of flowers, please do something for me. Share a story about me one day with my kids, preferably a good one. And please check in on my wife from time to time … I always said I could not imagine life without her, and can’t imagine how she will do without me.
In loving memory of our dear mother and grandmother
Emily Stefanizyn who sadly left us on July 17, 2001 If roses grow in Heaven, Lord, please pick a bunch for us. Place them in our mother’s arms, and tell her they’re from us. Tell her we love her and miss her, and when she turns to smile, Place a kiss upon her cheek, and hold her for awhile. Because remembering her is easy, we do it every day, But there’s an ache within our hearts because we are missing her today. Forever in our hearts, Love, Rod, Audrey, Branden and Leah

Augustana names Niven cross-county ski/biathlon coach By Murray Green
The University of Alberta Augustana name Lowell Niven as the new crosscountry ski coach. He is a familiar face around campus. Niven has coached the biathlon team in the past and now has added duties as the skiing coach. “I will be combining the sports of cross-country skiing and biathlon in training because everyone has to learn to be a strong skier, regardless of which sport they are in,” explained Niven. “We will have separate shooting practices for biathlon. In terms of going different places for competition, it is a hurdle that we have to overcome once we know the schedules.” Niven competed in biathlon for the Vikings before moving into coaching. “I wanted to coach both sports for the future and longevity of the programs at Augustana. I grew up in Camrose and I want to see the programs succeed for a long time,” said Niven. “I work in construction, so I’m flexible in balancing time at work and coaching. In the winter I have more time to coach skiing and biathlon.” The Vikings have had a successful program in both sports for many years. “Lowell adds stability to both programs, much like Garry Gibson did when he was here for 30 years. He is part of the community and that is what it takes to build a strong program,” said volunteer coach Les Parsons, who will be assisting Niven. Augustana is the only university or college in North America to offer a biathlon program at that level. “We compete against adults in cup series, so the level of competition doesn’t change,” explained Niven. “We go to Alberta Cup and Calforex Cup series and we compete against the people we would be anyway, so that doesn’t change.” Recruiting students for the two winter sports is a challenge. “It is tough, it honestly is. We are a liberal arts university and college and it is a good stepping stone for educating athletes. Once students get the message of athletes receiving an education, while they pursue skiing and biathlon, then it becomes attractive for them.” Several Augustana athletes have gone on to the national team and compete internationally because of the training they received in Camrose. “I would love to see it as a stepping stone to moving on to national teams,” Niven added.
“We have been lucky to coat-tail on the cross-country running program. Half of our good cross-country runners that we recruit for skiing, have good endurance skills, but have never pursued skiing before. If we recruit good runners, Lowell can turn them into good skiers,” shared Parsons. “They can go to nationals in their first year if they have a big motor. We work in cooperation with running. The recruits Lowell brings in make the running program stronger and good runners make Lowell’s program stronger.” Coach Niven wants to expand the program to include more athletes. “We have to get the word out that A, you can get a good education, and B, you can train here all year,” said Niven. “We are able to recruit young athletes in both sports because the university level events are held at the same place as the jackrabbits right through to the adult categories,” said Parsons. “We have had a good presence, it is just a matter presenting Augustana as the best program for them.” Camrose has had the advantage with close facilities. “We have fantastic facilities here. You could ski out to the range in 20 minutes (U of A north athletes may have an hour drive). We have a great community of volunteers and the trails are groomed almost daily by ski club volunteers. We depend on volunteers to make the program a success. You can’t beat leaving campus and training within five minutes,” continued Niven. He plans to provide more summer training in the future, since he is in the community. A new matching program has been added to campus where if someone sponsors an athlete for a $2,000 donation, the Provost office matches with a $1,000 amount to create a $3,000 scholarship for primary sports. For some boutique sports such as skiing and biathlon, a $1,000 sponsorship will create $500 to give a $1,500 scholarship. This is a huge opportunity for people to support Nordic sports in this community. This is now an added recruiting tool. All the university needs is more athlete sponsors to improve the program. The adopt a Viking program is key for athletes and it is a tax benefit for local businesses. A few athletes don’t receive any financial support.

Submitted Camrose resident Neil Leeson went to Calgary (Springbank) to view a B-17 Flying Fortress airplane that was hosted by the Experimental Aircraft Association. The Boeing B-17 is a four-engine heavy bomber developed in the 1930s for the United States Army Air Corps. Although Boeing lost the contract because the prototype crashed, the air corps was so impressed with its design that it ordered 13 more B-17s for further evaluation. Leeson was on stand-by to receive a ride on the plane, but didn’t make it on board.

Chevrolet Silverado Ride the Midnight Special
Brian Galenza Sales Consultant
By Murray Green
The 2016 Chevrolet Silverado was named “Best New Pickup in Canada” by the Automotive Journalists’ Association of Canada. “This award is testament that the Silverado builds on Chevy Trucks’ legacy of dependability with a dramatic new design, advanced connectivity and enhanced customer-focused technologies,” said Brian Galenza, McClellan Wheaton Chevrolet Buick GMC sales consultant. “The Midnight Special Editions Silverado 1500 Z71 are beautiful trucks,” said Galenza. “Chevrolet expanded the popular Midnight Special Edition with new models available on 2016 Silverado 1500 Z71 and 2016 Colorado Z71.” Great design
Silverado features a muscular front end with sculpted hood. Lights are integrated into the sweeping horizontal elements and deep grille inserts, while turn signals and brake lamps wrap around the corners of the truck for a more streamlined look. Silverado surrounds you with attractive, durable materials like door trim panels that are built to look good and stand up to everyday wear and tear. Choose bench or bucket seats for Brian Galenza Sales Consultant
five or six passengers on the four-door double cab and crew cab models. Resilient, dual-firmness foam ensures the seats retain their support over time The available centre floor console provides the ultimate flexibility with two cavernous storage bins offering plenty of room for your laptop or other mobile devices. You’ll also appreciate the convenience of easy grab and go storage pockets integrated into the doors so everything is at your fingertips. Silverado customers are among the top users of the connectivity offered by available OnStar and 4G LTE Wi-Fi. For 2016, Silverado is available with support for Apple CarPlay, which projects select iPhone features (iPhone 5 and later) on the available MyLink display in a smart, simple manner.
Chevy tough
The new 2016 Silverado 1500 builds on the legacy of the most dependable, longest-lasting fullsize pickups on the road. The fully boxed frame makes extensive use of high strength steels, as well as roll-formed steel beds, which are stronger and lighter than conventional steel. Customers can chose from three advanced EcoTec3 engines which incorporate advanced features to enhance power and efficiency. All three engines feature direct fuel injection, continuously variable valve timing, and cylinder deactivation, also known as Active
Fuel Management, for improved power and efficiency. All switch to four-cylinder mode under light-load conditions. Silverado’s standard 4.3L V-6 is SAE certified at 285 horsepower and 305 lbft of torque, the most torque of any standard V-6. The 5.3L V-8 is certified at 355-horsepower and 383 lb-ft of torque. Offering an EPA highway estimate of 23 mpg, it is the most fuel efficient V-8 in any pickup. Silverado’s available 6.2L V-8 is certified at 420 horsepower and 460 lb-ft of torque, the most power and torque of any light-duty pickup. This engine also
offers the highest towing of any V-8 light-duty pickup, up to 12,000 pounds. The new eight-speed transmission provides a numerically higher first gear ratio to help drivers start off more confidently with a heavy load or when hauling a trailer. Its wider overall gear ratio spread also enables numerically lower rear axle ratios, which reduce engine rpm on the highway. The electronic-variable assist power rack-and-pinion steering system reduces fuel consumption versus engine-powered systems. The variable assist is tuned to provide less assist at highway speeds for a solid on-centre feel, and more assist for less steering effort when manoeuvring in tight spaces. StabiliTrak, an electronic control system, helps improve stability by detecting and reducing loss of traction. Sensing when Silverado is not responding to your steering inputs, it adjusts engine speed and applies brake pressure to any wheel to help maintain directional control. You can see the 2016 Chevrolet Silverado at McClellan Wheaton Chevrolet Buick GMC at 3850-48 Avenue, Camrose. Phone 780-672-2355 and ask for one of the friendly sales professionals.

Actions taken will benefit Albertans By MLA Bruce Hinkley
Here are some actions accomplished during the last sitting, which will benefit all Albertans. We passed a private members bills, helping in the fight against fentanyl and increasing awareness about post-traumatic stress disorder. We took further action to end predatory lending practices, reforming agencies, boards and commissions, starting of consultations on the Municipal Government
Act and the Farm Safety Enhancement Act. We re-wrote essential services legislation to comply with the Supreme Court and modernized securities rules to harmonize them with national standards. We also acted to ensure the independence of environmental monitoring, took action to regulate ride-for-hire companies like Uber and at the request of Indigenous communities, repealed Bill 22. Our government also put forward a motion to the
House on Medical Assistance in Dying. Obviously, the wildfires in Fort McMurray dominated much attention and focus. Our province’s public servants stepped up and did the job that was expected of them in a very difficult time. The Climate Change Leadership Plan our government announced last fall and the legislation introduced this spring powerfully reflects the importance Albertans place on this issue. Industry, First Nations, environmental and community leaders are stand-
ing together with one shared aim: to take Alberta’s place as a world leader in the lowcarbon future that is coming. Supporting and creating jobs was the centerpiece of the budget–the Alberta Jobs Plan–that our government tabled in April builds on our province’s greatest strengthour people. Faced with collapse in world oil prices, the plan rejects deep cuts that would only make a tough economy worse. The Alberta Jobs Plan supports families with a new child benefit–a ground-
breaking initiative to fight poverty and ensure that families get the support they need. In all 380,000 children will benefit. The Alberta Jobs Plan supports business and entrepreneurs with a small business tax cut, access to new capital, and tax credits to help diversify our economy. The Climate Leadership and Alberta Jobs Plans are two bedrock initiatives of our government that go to the heart of the kind of Alberta we all want for our families and communities.

Helpful Tips for Writing Classified Ads Which Get Results! 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. 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.

Jack Stuart School students made a poster to welcome Kamifurano visits. Teachers and students will visit Camrose later in July.
Kamifurano friends set to visit Camrose By Brenda Knull
It seems like it wasn’t that long ago that I made my trek over the Pacific Ocean to move back to Camrose. I think of Kamifurano often and am reminded of Japan several times each week. I seem to somehow pick a book that has a connection to Japan, or I notice the Kamifurano friendship clock at City Hall more than I did a few years ago. I often share my stories of living in Kamifurano with my Grade 3 students. This summer some Kamifurano guests will visit our community, which overlooks the lovely Mirror Lake. On July 26 and 27, 14 junior high students and four adults will visit Camrose. École Charlie Killam School and Kamifurano Junior High School are sister city schools. Every three years a group of Kamifurano Junior High School students come to Camrose for a visit. The students come here to learn about life in their sister city. They also get the chance to experience Canadian culture firsthand. While our guests are in Camrose they will enjoy some of our city’s beautiful sights. Mayor Norman Mayer will greet our guests on the morning of July 27. Everyone will then tour city hall. After they have had a chance to see how our city hall is similar and different to theirs the group will go to the Camrose Heritage Railway Station and Park. Our guests will eat lunch at one of Camrose’s finest restaurants. In the afternoon, the guests will head over to the Camrose and District Centennial Museum. The museum will unveil a new exhibit that will display the gifts that Kamifurano has given to Camrose over the course of their sister city relationship. This display will be open to the public to view as well. Kamifurano displays the gifts that Camrose has given to them in an exhibit featured in the front of their town recreation centre. In the evening, the Kamifurano visitors will participate in a banquet. They will eat some Canadian cuisine and will be entertained by some of the talented citizens that we have living in Camrose. The Kamifurano guests will sing O Canada in English and a group from Camrose will try their hand at singing Kimigayo in Japanese. This is Japan’s national anthem. It’s going to be exciting to have people from so far away visit us. If you see the Kamifurano group in Camrose this summer be sure to say hello. I’m sure they’ll be happy to meet you.

Three local baseball players qualify for Games By Murray Green
Three Camrose bantam baseball players will be representing Zone 4 at the Alberta Summer Games in Leduc, July 14 to 17. Carter Burton, Chase Leslie and Grayden Guntrip of the Camrose Cougars bantam double-A squad were successful in securing a roster spot in the Games team. The Camrose team has only lost one game this season. “We have a pretty good team this year and we want to play well in playoffs and provincials. Two years ago, with this same team, we were the best team in Alberta, but we choked in provincials,” said Grayden Guntrip. “We have the potential to do well,” added Leslie, who shares the catching duties with Guntrip. “We have good pitching and our bats are good,” said Burton. “We have played together for the last four years, so we know what to expect from each other.” The players wanted to add to their experience by
joining the Alberta Summer Games team. “We went to an evaluation camp in Red Deer and they selected the top players at the camp. It will be a good opportunity to meet and get to know the other players,” said Guntrip. “Our Games team has good pitching and is pretty good defensively. It is good to compete at a higher level and it is good to prove to yourself that you are good enough to be there,” said Burton, who plays shortstop and pitches. “Playing in the Summer Games is a good opportunity for us to play against and with the best players in Alberta,” said Leslie. “Summer Games is a good opportunity to see other players, meet new people and make new friends on your team,” added Guntrip. “We thank all of our present and past coaches who have helped get us here in baseball,” said Burton. They are looking forward to a fun learning experience at the Alberta Summer Games.

Spirals garner silver medals at nationals By Murray Green
The Camrose Spirals came home with a couple of medals from the National Skip Rope Championships held in Olds. About 315 athletes from across Canada competed in the May long weekend finals. “We competed with three teams in about 10 events before moving on to individual events,” said Jodi Harrison, coach of the Spirals. “Almost all of our athletes competed in the masters individual events.” The senior girls squad (age 18 to 29) called Team Unity earned silver medals at nationals. The junior mixed squad also received silver medals in their category. The younger girls placed fifth, but were rated high in the speed event. Individually, Matthew Bridger in the male 13 and 14 age category, earned a bronze for the Camrose Spirals. Instructor Myles Bogstie came in third in the triple power event and placed fourth in freestyle. Hope Reimer came in sixth in the masters freestyle. “It is hard to place in the top five because there are so many good competitors from across Canada. Everyone from our club did quite well, especially for those who entered nationals for the first time,” said Harrison. “It was a good experience for them to be there.” Local athletes qualified to enter nationals based on their performance at provincials. “We took a larger team to nationals this year
SILVER SPIRALS
The Camrose Spirals earned two silver medals in team competitions at nationals, as well as turning in some good individual performances. Members of the Spirals, front from left, Charlie Broughton, Keeley Lamson, Harlee Rasmussen and Varonika Newcombe.

because it was in Alberta. They all still had to qualify,” explained Harrison. “You have to be in the top eight in four events at provincials to compete in all of the events, or if you place in the top eight in a category, then you can compete in that event.” All 15 members on the
competitive teams qualified in multiple events. “This is my first year being the head coach, so having that many athletes go to nationals was fun and exciting. This is my 14th year in Spirals, but I didn’t compete this year because I wanted to concentrate on coaching,” shared Harrison, who was
on the team that went to Paris last year. “The travel is exciting, but this year we were able to give the younger children a chance to go to nationals and that was a great opportunity because none of them had seen a national competition before. They were so excited and they have been work-
ing on tricks ever since they returned.” Harrison is eyeing the junior world competition in Florida that is held every year. Her goal is to take a team to the worlds. The Camrose Spirals wrapped up the season at nationals and will start up again in September.

When you replace your old toilet with a low flow model
UNIDIRECTIONAL FLUSHING Why the City of Camrose is implementing the Unidirectional Flushing (UDF) Program: 1. To maintain and improve the City’s water quality. 2. To improve water flow and pressure in the water distribution system. 3. To reduce bacterial growth, restore disinfectant residual, and improve water color. 4. Unidirectional Flushing uses 40% less water than traditional flushing programs due to increased water velocity. 5. In addition to scouring the water pipes, the UDF Program also gives the City the opportunity to check, exercise, and maintain all water valves and hydrants. This year’s UDF program begins July 18, 2016, starting with Zone A (in Area 1) and will continue for two to three months. Water service should not be disrupted during the flushing process. There may be a slight drop in pressure or a presence of discoloration in the water from the minerals and sediments being flushed from the pipes. If a discoloration is noticed, please turn the tap off for 15 minutes and flush from your bathtub tap until the water is clear. If there are any questions or concerns in regard to the Unidirectional Flushing Program please feel free to contact Vincent Choy at the City of Camrose Engineering Department at (780)672-4428. For additional information please visit the City of Camrose website at www.camrose.com.

Outstanding warrant July 2
Camrose RCMP assisted a County officer with a traffic stop. The driver of the stopped vehicle was found to have an outstanding warrant. The 22-year-old Edmonton male was arrested and released after outstanding fines were paid. A vehicle travelling north
