Camrose Axemen wrapped the North Central Alberta Baseball League with a 9-9 record in regular season play in 2016.

For the first time in several seasons, the Axemen missed the playoffs and finished the year in sixth place.

In the semifinals, the top seeded Edmonton Blackhawks took on the Westlock Red Lions and the match featured the Sherwood Park Athletics and the Stony Plain Mets. The winners of both series will meet in the league final series.

Blair Mulder was the top Axemen this year at the dish and on the mound. He batted at a .415 clip with 17 hits, stole five bases and tied with the most RBI’s.

On the mound, he went 5-1 and posted an ERA of 1.64 in 42 and two-thirds innings.

Lyndsey Delwo,

Realtor Central Agencies Inc. Dual loves – family and career; this about sums up the life of popular Central Agencies realtor Lyndsey Delwo. The mother of two very busy boys, Lonny, age 5, and Joe, just 2 and a half, Lyndsey is always on the run! It is no easy task balancing being a leading realtor with that of being a mom. It is important to Lyndsey to spend as much time as possible with her boys in their formative years. She and husband Jason (both proud Camrosians) are also keen and instrumental leaders in Special Olympics Camrose.

Lyndsey, who feels she has chosen “not only the best career, but the best employer in the world – Central Agencies,” attributes her career success to enhanced market knowledge and superior customer service.

“For me it’s genuinely fascinating to meet new people and develop longterm friendships with those clients,” notes Lyndsey. “I recognize that representing a client is equally a huge responsibility as well as an honor.

If my clients need to see a dozen or more homes, that’s their right. I relish the opportunity to see a smile on faces when I find them a home that is a perfect fit! I look forward to serving the community for many years to come!”

Christine Olson and Wendi Rau, Co-owners of Shuman Insurance

Christine’s desk sits two paces from the front door. It’s symbolic of her commitment to serving her clients well and being totally accessible to them (although on occasion a client thinks she’s the receptionist due to her proximity to the entrance).

Christine was drawn to the business because it’s important to her to continue its legacy.

Her grandfather Ed started the company some 75 years ago, her dad Steve continued the enterprise and Christine carries on the tradition of excellence.

She enjoys the complexity of the insurance industry and its everchanging nature. It challenges her. She derives satisfaction from new customers who come to her office through referrals from longterm satisfied clients who help the business grow.

She and co-owner Wendi Rau act as brokers, which means they have the best interest of their clients first. They don’t represent insurance companies, but rather, they seek coverage from an array of insurance sources that best fits their clients’ needs.

And it wouldn’t be surprising if some day a fourth-generation Shuman is working with those same companies.

Wendi was working at city hall some 21 years ago when one of the city councilors, Steve Shuman, asked if she would like to start a career in the insurance business as a customer service representative. She hasn’t looked back.

Now she co-owns the business with Christine and is passionate about it. She enjoys assisting her clients in solving their insurance requirements.

She sees herself as an educator and advisor, matching the best insurance coverage with the client’s needs all the while gaining their trust during the process.

Wendi likes to say her clients are dealing with the CEOs of the company when they talk to her or Christine. “You’re dealing with the owners,” she says. She’s also proud to be part of this thirdgeneration business in Camrose.

The company was owned by Ed Shuman. Most family businesses (Christine is Steve’s daughter) don’t succeed into the third generation. In fact, a recent article in a respected business magazine cited a 90 per cent failure rate among third-generation companies.

“It’s a family-oriented business,” she says. “We’re moms and grandmoms successfully g operating the longest-standing opera insurance insur business in Camrose.”

Small town boy realizes big time dream

Submitted photo Former Camrosian Dale Johnson credits his upbringing in Camrose for forming his solid base and strong work ethics which have helped lead to his success.

By Lori Larsen Two things can happen when you step to the edge of risk. You can step over the edge, grow wings and fly or you can take a step back and always wonder why.

For Dale Johnson and his wife, Erika HovelandJohnson, two born and raised Camrosians, taking risks is all part and parcel of how to determine your own success.

Fascinating Career

The couple is reaping the rewards of hard work and determination with a passion for life, each other and work.

“We are running a company that my wife and I founded a number of years ago called Lynmar Entertainment,” said Dale.

“We work with a number of top tier production companies and producers in Hollywood and we are producers ourselves. We end up in relationships co-producing and raising funds for the movies in which we have been involved.

So far we have done nine or 10 films in the last three or four years. That is the core focus of what our company does.”

As an executive producer, Dale is described as one of the most active financiers in independent film today with recent projects including Pawn Sacrifice, directed

by Academy Award winning producer Ed Zwick.

The film, starring Tobey Maguire, Liev Schreiber and Peter Sarsgaard, premiered in 2014 at the Toronto Film Festival.

The latest credit to the company is the project Lost City of Z, directed by James Gray, starring Charlie Hunnam, Robert Pattinson and Sienna Miller.

This film has been selected to premiere at the closing gala of the New York Film Festival, to be held on Oct. 15 of this year.

“I spent 15 years in the

music industry, I have always been involved in the arts. In my experiences working with artists, and being an artist myself, I often found that I ended up between the art and the commerce and that was a role that seemed to be a good fit for me,” said Dale when asked why his career turned in this direction.

“A producer’s role is to bring together the team while keeping in mind the creative direction of the directors, to support that director in his creative vision, and also understand the business side.”

Dale described his role to be similar to that of a general contractor when constructing a building “Every film is like a start up business. You have to assemble your team and you are starting from nothing each time. That is something I have been quite comfortable doing because I have pretty much been an entrepreneur all my life. I get very passionate and excited about the process of seeing a project come to life and the team come together.

“I just love the process of working with creative teams and seeing all the different gifts that all these different people bring together.

“As a producer one of my main roles is to create an environment of service: leading through service and really striving to create unity amongst the creative team.”

Dale emphasized, like many things in life, the importance of everyone setting aside egos, working together and focusing on the end result.

“It’s about having everyone focused on the purpose of making the best film that you can possibly make.

“When you do create an environment like that I find that’s when you can create amazing results with people.”

Camrose Connection

Dale is the son of longtime resident of Camrose LeRoy and the late Diane Johnson. Erika is the daughter of Agnes and James Hoveland, also long time residents of Camrose.

Dale and Erika both benefitted from not only the love and support of being raised by devout parents but also the tight-knittedness of Camrose and its infallible community spirit.

“Camrose was one of the best gifts that Erika and I could have been given,” reflected Dale.

“In terms of being raised in such a great community that helped to ground us and, along with the parents that we were blessed with, it gave us a strong sense of work ethic and a sense of the importance of community.”

The couple moved to the United States in 2003 and has lived in various locations.

They are presently settled in Detroit, Michigan, however their business sees them travel world wide.

When asked how often they are able to get back to Camrose, Dale did not hesitate to reply, “Camrose is home.

“We were back in September (2015) for the wedding of Erika’s sister.”

And despite a very busy schedule, the couple manages to return to Camrose at least a couple times during the year.

be recognized at that level by such experienced critics and curators of great films.

“One of the keys to being successful is finding really great projects; it always boils down to a great script.

“You can do a poor a job of executing on a great script but you can never make a great movie out of a mediocre script.”

Not to rest on his laurels, Dale expressed that success is attributed to the hard work of many.

“Earlier on in my life success would have been defined as making it in my industry, making it in the music industry. That is certainly a part of it, but as I get older I associate success with doing things that are significant in life.

“Working with groups like this and being instrumental in helping someone else realize a vision, in this case a film that maybe he or she has tried to get off the ground for many years, you feel like you are a part of that at a fundamental level. I get the most energized when I feel like my life has been instrumental in helping someone else achieve untapped potential.”

As a small town child growing up in Camrose, Dale offers his take on taking risks.

“For me it’s not about taking irresponsible risks but recognizing what it is that you get passionate about in life

and going after that, in spite of the obstacles that you face.

Inevitably, you will face a lot of obstacles.

“Just don’t be afraid to fail. For me and so many people who have inspired me, it is the times when things don’t quite work out that you often learn the most and you get better prepared for when success does come.

“On a fundamental level for me in my own life it has always been about an unrelenting pursuit of excellence and finding your potential.”

Currently Dale, at the helm of the company, is working on post production of The Lost City of Z, and will no doubt be jetting off in pursuit of the next incredible story (script) that will benefit from his expertise and passion.

Erika recently completed a lead role as Elizabeth in Shakespeare performances of Richard the Third, in Detroit.

She manages to keep her passion for acting thriving all the while taking an active part in the business, which is becoming more involved in the creative side of films.

To find out more about Dale or read more on the movies with which he and his company have been involved, visit his IMDb at www.imdb.com/ name/nm5030216/ If you are interested in viewing Pawn Sacrifice it is now available on Netflix.

STOP HUNGER NOW

Lori Larsen, Camrose Booster The Stop Hunger Now committee (members of the Rotary Club of Camrose and Rotary Club of Camrose Daybreak) made a donation of $4,700 to the Camrose Neighbor Aid Center. The funds were raised during the Stop Hunger Now campaign held on May 15. Pictured from left to right are committee members Jenn Stone, Destiny Reay, Camrose Neighbor Aid Center program director Jo-Anne Tweed, committee members Sheila Herle and Lisa Rohr. Missing from the photo were committee members Tina Yarbrough and Dawn Anderson.

Defining Success

If success was defined by accolades then being selected as the premiere film for the closing gala of the New York Film Festival most certainly defines Dale and Erika and their company as successful.

“It is a huge honour and not just because it is such a prestigious festival,” remarked Dale. “But it really is a stamp of approval on the work that’s been done on that film, to

Designing a pocket park for downtown Camrose

By Lori Larsen

The City of Camrose is inviting residents with skills for design and an eye for esthetics to compose a design for a pocket park to be located mid 50 Street in the downtown sector.

“It goes without saying that Camrose has really first class park facilities all over the City,” said City of Camrose Planning and Development Services senior development officer Colin MacPhee. “But, in our downtown there are just not that many opportunities to have a seat and relax and get away from the hustle and bustle.”

The site which will be located in the city owned lot beside Dairy Queen on 50 Street, will serve as a rest area and a connection point to points west of 50 Street.

“People would no longer have to traverse north and south around the entire block once it is established.”

Certain needs for this particular pocket park are deemed necessary in order for it to serve the downtown area.

“It needs to have some sense of being central to much of what is happening not just 50th Street but the whole downtown,”commented MacPhee.

A design review committee was formed consisting of members of the public,

Camrose downtown and City of Camrose in order to establish a collaborative approach to what is aimed at being a made in Camrose project.

The competition is open to anyone meeting the design criteria and submissions will be scored objectively based on that criteria.

“Our (Design Review Committee’s) goal is not to design the pocket park; our goal is to evaluate those submitted designs,” explained MacPhee.

The guidelines for the design competition and criteria can be viewed on the City of Camrose website by clicking on the banner Spaces to Places scrolling across the top of the home page.

Deadline for submissions is Oct. 7. “Submissions come in up until the deadline. Then I, as project manager, need to prep them up and make sure they meet the criteria,” said MacPhee.”Then they will go to the committee anonymously and are evaluated in two rounds based solely on the material submitted and not what company it is from or who did it.

“I did a lot of research to place as much objectivity as possible to make sure all submissions will get a fair chance.”

After all submissions have been evaluated by the design review committee the three

winning designs will serve as guidance and inspiration for the design build phase.

“This is where we include a round of public engagement to see what the people of Camrose think.

“It is very much about participation and getting that feedback. We want it to be a community space.”

MacPhee related the benefits of adding this pocket park to the downtown core. “Firstly, in absence of an abundance of just urban park space, it is a park. A place where you can have a seat and relax for a little bit.

“It is intended to enhance the existing benches, an additive, not subtractive. A place where you can eat your lunch or just take a break from shopping.”

The pocket park also has the potential of doubling as an additional performance space during Jaywalkers’ Jamboree but for sure will provide an extra area for attendees to sit and take a break from the excitement.

“Secondly is the connectivity,” added MacPhee. “There is no way to get through the block accept going north and south.

“We want people to have easy access to all the amenities of 50 Street but also to spread out from 50 to get to the rest of downtown.”

The pocket park would

also afford easy access for the residents of the downtown area.

“Lets make it as easy as possible for people who live downtown to get by and through, more walkability.”

The concept of the pocket park is to add to the already successful and thriving downtown by providing residents and visitors with additional park space and more accessibility for pedestrians.

“Times are always evolving and we need to keep with the times,” said MacPhee.

“I would like to thank Camrose Downtown and Camrose Main Street Soci-

ety for their generous donation of the land which made this possible in so many ways,” remarked MacPhee.

MacPhee also thanked members of the Design Review Committee, colleagues at the City of Camrose and the Historic Society for all the time and effort contributed to the project thus far. “Without them it wouldn’t be possible for us to be at this point.”

For more information on the Pocket Park design competition visit the City of Camrose website at www.camrose.ca/ or contact Colin MacPhee at 780-672-4428.

REFLECTIONS

by Bonnie Hutchinson A pound of dirt

“Every child should have a pound of dirt a day.”

I heard my mom say that once and I couldn’t believe those words came out of her mouth. She never let us leave the house without making sure we were clean and tidy.

She was finicky about washing fruits and vegetables.

“Clean freak” would be overstating it, but cleanliness of people, houses and any foodserving location mattered to

her. A pound of dirt?

Later, I overheard mom explaining the “pound of dirt” remark to another grown-up. My mom had been with a much younger mom who was fretting about her baby being on the floor or any other location where the baby might be exposed to germs. In an attempt to help the young mom relax a bit, my mom had said, “Oh well, they say every child should have a pound of dirt a day.” And then she laughed. *** Maybe not a pound of dirt, but new research suggests my mom may have been on to something.

According to researchers in New Zealand, children who either suck their thumbs or bite their nails between the ages of five and 11 are significantly less likely to experience allergies or asthma later in life. The study looked at a test group from ages five to 38.

The findings seem to support an older scientific theory called the hygiene hypothesis. This theory suggests that exposure to a cross section of germs in early childhood immunizes children to certain allergies and illnesses later on.

One of the New Zealand researchers, Robert Hancox, an associate professor in the Department of Preventive and Social Medicine at Dunedin School of Medicine told the New York Times: “The hygiene hypothesis is interesting because it suggests that lifestyle factors may be responsible for the rise in allergic diseases in recent decades. Obviously hygiene has very many benefits, but perhaps this is a downside. The hygiene hypothesis is still unproven and controversial, but this is another piece of evidence that it could be true.” *** One of the elegant challenges of being a parent or caregiver of children is to know the balance between enough protectiveness to keep our children safe, but not so much protectiveness that they’re not able to manage the regular hazards of the real world out there.

I think of the years when I had young children. We didn’t have seat belts or bike helmets. Our kids went out to play for hours and we didn’t necessarily know exactly where they were or what they were doing – and we weren’t worried. The neighbourhood was safe.

One of my wake-up calls happened at my son’s 40th birthday party, attended by many of “the guys” he grew up with. I heard stories of things they’d done as boys and teenagers and I was appalled. As a parent, I thought I had a handle on what was going on. Turns out I was naïve. I didn’t know about the raft that nearly sank while they were fishing for minnows, the time they set fire to bales of hay and it got out of hand, driving a vehicle on early ice…

I said, “How come I didn’t know about these things?”

My son said, “You would have just worried.”

He was right. I would have.

A nanosecond before I sank into retro-active fear of what might have happened, something useful occurred to me. He was 40 years old. He obviously made it to adulthood in one piece, relatively uninjured and unscathed as near as I could tell.

I’m not saying we should be irresponsible. On the other hand, perhaps we could all relax a bit about protecting our children and grandchildren from every possible danger. We have all done possibly dangerous things – sometimes intentionally and sometimes because we didn’t know any better.

If you’re reading this, that means you made it to adulthood.

Perhaps we could trust that our children and grandchildren will too. *** If you have comments about this column or suggestions for future topics, send a note to Bonnie@BonnieHutchinson.com

City icon

What is an icon?

An icon is a symbol on your computer or phone screen. A city icon is something that is very visible and easily identifiable to the public. (City of Vancouver). The ski jump was an identifiable visual for any stranger travelling the Highway 13A bypass.

They associated Camrose with it.

When the city incorporated in 1955 the image of the ski jump was selected for the official City of Camrose crest.

It is still there.

What does the ski jump represent? Not only the original Scandinavian settlers and their passion for Nordic sports (cross country skiing, ski jumping, Nordic combined - cross country skiing and jumping and biathlon) but also current Nordic sports for all ages - from Learn to Ski Jackrabbits, ages four and up to recreational ski lessons for adults and seniors. Furthermore, it represents over

100 years of Nordic sports in Stoney Creek Valley on excellent ski trails designed from the grassroots up, groomed in the winter and maintained twice yearly by volunteer skiers, parents and more recently, members of the Augustana cross country and biathlon teams. The City of Camrose Green Space Master Plan 2014 acknowledges the trails are second in Alberta only to those at the Canmore Nordic Centre, due to the work and commitment of volunteers.

Not only is Camrose known as home of the daring Norwegian Flyers (jumpers) who made Camrose the birthplace of ski jumping in Alberta (https://albertashistoricplaces.wordpress.com/ it is home to one of the oldest ski clubs in Canada. The ski trails at the base of the jump, beside the jump and at the back of the jump are the very place where seven local Camrose skiers began their training which resulted in them representing Canada at the Winter Olympics: 1934 - Jostein Nord moe a nd Kari Englestad (Nordic combined), 1956 - Clarence and Irvin Servold (Nordic combined and cross country), 1960 - Clarence and Irvin Servold (Nordic combined and cross country), 1988 Carol Gibson (cross country) and Glenn Rupertus (biathlon), 1990- Glenn Rupertus (biathlon), 1994 - Glenn Rupertus (biathlon), and 2006 - David Leoni (biathlon).

The ski jump is a city icon. When the fountain was installed in Mirror Lake it

was an icon but, even though it is still very pretty, it is no longer an icon since many cities and towns now have a four seasons park with a fountain. We had the ski jump; one of four in Canada. It was unique. It was built for the Alberta Winter Games in 1990 with Alberta Sports Legacy money. Taxpayer money will be used to remove it.

Recently the City of Wetaskiwin enhanced its unused water tower and protected it with a chain link fence at the base. Not all residents like it but all recognize it as a symbol of their community – a city icon.

Ruth Ford, Camrose Ski trails

I would like to know if you were able to help me find some information regarding the Camrose ski trails. I am looking for information on three separate topics. 1) the old ski hill that was located near the current Camrose sanitary landfill. This ski hill was in operation near the turn of last century possible 1910-20. 2) the Canada cup mountain bike race that was held in the 1990s (not sure which dates) and 3) a CN rail derailment that happened about 10 to 15 years ago.

If you are able to help me find information on these topics that would be greatly appreciated.

Hockey games put fun back onto the streets

By Murray Green

Dig out your gloves and sticks for a day of street hockey fun.

The Downtown Camrose Business Association will host a Kodiak Kickoff Road Hockey Tournament on 49 Street on Saturday, Sept. 3.

Downtown Camrose will be busy with other activities, games and entertainment.

Jennifer Routhier of the Stockmen’s Chophouse, Matt Hunter of the Kodiaks and Allan Walkey of Downtown Camrose have been working hard to bring the event to downtown.

“We wanted an event held downtown and Jennifer suggested to get the Kodiaks involved and play street hockey,” said Walkey, on how the event came about.

“I help out with the Kodiaks and we talked to Matt to get him on board.

It’s about getting people downtown and having fun.

Edmonton has a big one and we thought why not have one here so people are not travelling,” said Routhier.

“We wanted to include Fountain Tire because they have been associated with the Kodiaks since the beginning and are helping us with some trophies. Vision Credit Union is offering financial support, which may be used to supply different coloured t-shirts for the teams,” explained Walkey.

Teams of all ages are invited to participate with four teams in four different age groups.

“It will be three on three hockey with a minimum of four or five players and a maximum of 10 players.

Murray Green, Camrose Booster

David Sheets from Vision Credit Union, Jennifer Routhier of Stockmen’s Chophouse, Matt Hunter of the Kodiaks and Randy McCrea of Fountain Tire fight for positioning at centre ice in preparation for the street hockey festival.

Players will wear normal protective gear, along with goalie equipment. The age divisions are six to eight, nine to 11, 12 to 15 and 16 and over,” shared Hunter.

Every team entered in the tournament will play at least four games with some teams playing five.

“We will have four arenas going at once. We will have a barbecue in the city

parking lot, activities, entertainment and the Kodiaks might even sign a few autographs. The Kodiaks will be refereeing the games. We want the Kodiaks to have more of a presence downtown this year,” said Routhier.

To register download a registration form on the Camrose Kodiaks website and deliver it to the Kodiaks office with payment. You

can also call Hunter at 780679-2603 or email kodiaks@ lynxnet.ca for more information. It is on a first comefirst serve format with limited spots available. The games will likely go from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and then a final will be held in each division.

“The proceeds from the tournament will go to a local

charity and we have chosen KidSport,” said Routhier.

The Kodiaks are encouraging downtown businesses to set up shop in the Kodiaks Overtime Market during games this season. “We want it to be more of a trade show where businesses can explain what services and goods they provide and to draw more people downtown,” added Routhier.

Kodiaks set to celebrate 20 years of hockey in the AJHL

By Murray Green

The Camrose Kodiaks started with a vision through the Camrose Sport Development Society 20 years ago this August.

When a visionary group of Camrose businessmen and community members gathered to explore ways to bring junior A hockey to Camrose, a broader vision emerged which is now paying dividends in a big way.

The Camrose Sport Development Society was originally formed out of a group gathered together by Viking Cup founder LeRoy Johnson. Its objective at the time was to purchase the struggling Sherwood Park Crusaders franchise and move it to Camrose. That deal eventually fell through, but the group persisted and was ultimately awarded an expansion franchise by the Alberta Junior Hockey League (AJHL).

A group of 25 investors came forward and the highly successful Camrose Kodiaks franchise was born.

However, from the very beginning the Camrose Sport Development Society felt it could be more than just the

owner of a hockey club. Consequently, when the constitution of the group was drawn up by Verlyn Olson, its first president, the purpose was to help support and develop all sports in Camrose, not just hockey.

“It was felt that we could be more than just a group to bring junior A hockey here, we could be a group that would promote sport, whatever the needs might be,” explained Johnson, one of the group’s founders.

Of course, the society’s first project was the establishment of the Camrose Kodiaks.

The team took to the ice for the first time in the fall of 1997 and though it struggled through its first few seasons, the building blocks were put in place to create one of the most successful junior A franchise in Canada.

The Kodiaks won their first AJHL championship in 2001. They followed that up with a victory at the Doyle Cup (B.C.-Alberta championship) and earned their only national championship at the 2001 Royal Bank Cup. Since then the Kodiaks have added more AJHL and Doyle Cup titles along with three silver

medals at the National Junior A Championship.

Over the years the Kodiaks have also built a large fan base not only in Camrose, but throughout central Alberta. They have become substantial contributors to the community, supporting local charities, youth programs and local hockey teams. And, their success was one of the factors which helped spark the development of the new arena.

“Having the Kodiaks I think was a bit of a catalyst to get the facility here, which I think is going to help us long term,” said World Junior A Challenge co-chair and Camrose Sport Development Society member Kevin Gurr.

With the Kodiaks now successfully established, the Camrose Sport Development Society has been able to begin to explore ways to support its broader mandate. It played a critical role in bringing the World Junior A Challenge to Camrose and the ultimate success of this event will allow the group to expand its support for local sports groups and even individuals.

“We’re hoping we can put a sizable amount into the Camrose Sport Development

CAFCL hands out awards

By Lori Larsen

Camrose Association for Community Living presented awards to some very deserving community members during its annual meeting on June 13.

Burgar Funeral Home owners, staff and families were recognized for their long time support and donations to CAFCL and the individuals CAFCL supports.

The owners and staff of Burgar have consistently sponsored CAFCL through donations and with attendance at the annual charity auction. Aside from generous donations they go above and beyond by offering friendship and support to many of the people CAFCL serves by providing rides, thoughtfully solving problems and, most recently, sending a team of volunteers to a CAFCL resident to assist with kitchen renovations.

The second recipient was TD Canada Trust manager Colin Atkinson, who has been on the CAFCL board of directors for 12 years, offering his financial expertise as treasurer and a member of the audit committee. He has also worn the hat of president and vicepresident and served on the Provincial Persons with Disabilities advisory committee.

Throughout his service to CAFCL, Colin provided strong leadership and knowledge, especially in the area of assets management.

TD Bank has a program that provides financial support to charities chosen by employees. Over the years, Colin has directed many of these to CAFCL. He has advocated for sponsorship of the annual charity auction all

the while challenging other financial institutions to follow suit.

Colin, his wife Donna, and children Drew, Jess and Kyle, donate items to the annual charity auction as well as furniture, equipment and other items to many CAFCL programs.

The third recipient, Trent Kowal received the 2016 human services scholarship which is awarded to anyone pursuing post secondary education in disabilities or a related field of study. Trent has been working with CAFCL in one of the residences for eight months. As a result of the work he has been doing he has decided to pursue a career in disability services, beginning with an online program through Bow Valley College.

In his spare time Trent enjoys both playing and coaching sports.

The fourth recipient was Jim Ofrim, who received the

CAFCL Life Member award, which over CAFCL’s 54 years has only been awarded to 13 people. The criteria for the award includes a deep commitment to improving the lives of people with disabilities, outstanding ambassadorship to the community, long term commitment and devotion, innovation, hard work for the betterment of the future of people with disabilities, and a strong belief that people with disabilities can learn, be independent and grow to be responsible citizens, a belief that aligns with CAFCL’s vision and philosophy.

Jim was a board member at the association from 2001 to 2006, holding the positions of president, vice-president and past president. He has volunteered in many places in the community and with individuals with special needs, including supporting the Special Olympics Camrose.

DRUM DONATIONS

Lori Larsen, Camrose Booster The Camrose Public Library is the proud recipient of several sets of drums and other percussion instruments as a result of the generosity of Camrose Open Door. Pictured left to right are library staff members Kelly Higgins, Kelsey Mailer, Open Door executive director Rochelle Johannson, library director Deb Cryderman, library volunteer Carol Breitkreutz and library staff member Lisa Cummings. The drums were originally donated to Camrose Open Door by Carol Breitkreutz after having facilitated a Community Drum Circle for a few years. The drums are still used by various groups around Camrose and area including a drum circle held the fourth Monday of each month at the library. The drums will also be available for use by both library guests and the Open Door youth.

By Lori Larsen On Aug. 27, residents of Camrose and surrounding area will have an opportunity to welcome a dedicated group of horseback riders part of the Wild Pink Yonder Charitable Society as they make a 500-kilometre trek to raise funds and awareness for breast cancer research.

As part of their stop in Camrose to help raise funds in the spirit of the Pinkest Town in the West, the Kinsmen Club of Camrose will be providing the riders with a steak dinner including all the fixings, at the Camrose Regional Exhibition.

The next morning, Aug. 28, the Camrose Elks and Royal Purple are hosting a breakfast including pancakes, strawberries, whipped cream, sausages, ham, scrambled eggs and hash browns, from 8:30 a.m. until noon at the Elks Lodge.

The Wild Pink is a charitable horseback ride that takes place over a three week period across Alberta, which began on Friday, Aug. 12 at Stirling.

Riders are riding every day until Sunday, Sept. 4 with a goal of completing the journey in Lamont.

The objective of the challenge is for every small town, of the 23 along the pink trail, to raise money for Breast Cancer research.

The Wild Pink organization challenged residents of their communities to show their spirit in helping to make their community the winning town (per capita) of raising funds for this cause.

They also encourage communities to outdo each other in being the pinkest town along the route.

All proceeds raised by the riders will be donated to breast cancer research.

For more details, or for helpful ideas for your town contact Jane Hurl at email Jane@WildPinkYonder.com or by telephone at 780-363-0003.

Plot matures for Camrose readers at public library

By Dan Jensen

If you’re someone who enjoys telling others about the great book you just couldn’t put down you’ll love The Plot Matures reading club at Camrose Public Library.

It’s a club for 20-yearolds or anyone who feels like a 20-year-old.

“It’s a fun club to be part of,” explained Lisa Cummings, who has been a member since this past Christmas. “You are able to meet a lot of interesting people and have good discussions about the books you have read.”

The club meets for an hour the last Tuesday evening of every month, with members bringing snacks to stir their creative juices.

“We talk about the book we have just completed and then pick one for the next month,” said Camrose Public Library employee Alyssa Martin, who became the club’s coordinator after former library employee Laura Hunt left for Vancouver.

Attendance at the club has varied over time, with some meetings having only two members and others having 13 or more. Attendance is typically higher in the summer than it is in the fall and winter.

“It seems in the fall and winter people have more things going on and don’t have as much time to read,” said Martin. “It kind of dies down around Christmas because there are so many parties and get togethers to attend.

Members are encouraged to attend the meetings even if they have not completed the chosen book. “We

don’t want them to feel pressured into reading the book,” said Martin. “The goal is to provide a comfortable place for readers to hang out with others who are of the same age and have similar interests. Everyone is encouraged to take part in the discussions.”

The club recently finished Station Eleven, by Emily St. John Mandel, a spellbinding story of a group of actors and musicians who are touring the Great Lakes in Canada after an epidemic has wiped out most of the population.

Members also completed Yes Please, by Amy Phoeller, a comedian who offers up a big juicy stew of personal stories, funny bits on sex and love and friendship and parenthood and real life advice (some useful, some not so much), and Gabrielle Zevin’s The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry, which, according to The Globe and Mail “chronicles the foibles and idiosyncrasies of small-town life, but explores the depths of grief, yearning and heartbreak.”

“With The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry we talked about why the writer wrote it the way she did,” said Cummings. “The discussion always gears to what the book is about and there are always a lot of good, interesting questions.”

The meetings start with members sharing what has been happening in their lives since their last get-together.

“We usually ask each other a couple of questions about plot devices and anything in particular that struck us about the way it was written or the perspective,” said Martin. “We leave

Kevin Sorenson, MP Battle River-Crowfoot This summer, as I travel around our riding of Battle River-Crowfoot, I am hearing a great deal of dissatisfaction with the Liberal government in Ottawa – and concerns about political leadership and government in general.

In fact, many folks mention their concerns about reports of international events and recent terrorist events in

particular. It is important for all of us to raise these issues and discuss them in order to better understand them – to the extent that we can.

We place the highest value on our rights and the freedom to live the way we choose. As a result of our strong convictions to live freely and respect one another, we react just as strongly when we learn of attacks, assaults and any violence by

Dan Jensen, Camrose Booster The Plot Matures reading club members Elliot Harder, Alyssa Martin, Kelly Higgins and Veronica Brown recently finished Station Eleven, by Emily St. John Mandel.

the discussion about whether or not we actually enjoyed it until the very end because we don’t want to sway anyone’s opinion right off the bat.”

If the book has been made into a film members will try to view it (the film) to see how everything compares.

Books are chosen by members on a democratic basis, with everyone having the opportunity to make their suggestions. The only stipulation is that there has to be enough books in the library system for everyone.

“We don’t want anyone to have to pay for a book,” said Martin. “There needs to be enough of the books in the system to just bring in.”

Members often find themselves reading books that they would never otherwise have picked up, including memoirs. The plan for this fall is to introduce a few short stories or lengthy articles from magazines or newspapers.

“The members will be able to read the short stories and articles faster than the books and have a opportunity to contribute more,” said Martin.

The club made many changes at the beginning to fit people’s schedules but finally decided to hold meetings once a month. “It was always changing and people couldn’t always keep track,” said Martin. “Having the

meetings on a set day means that people can just show up and know that a meeting is happening.”

Cummings said the book club has made her more excited about reading, to the point where once she gets involved with a book she can’t put it down. “I find myself taking notes about things in the book that I want to discuss so that I don’t forget later on. Sometimes I don’t actually use what I have written when I get to the meetings but it is kind of fun.”

those who do not share these values. We feel threatened and we want to protect our nation from these kinds of incidents. We want the federal government to be vigilant when it comes to regulating who we let into our country.

It is a difficult summer for many communities across Alberta for many reasons.

Our province is struggling with low oil prices and other factors affecting our energy sector. We were hoping that the slump in our energy sector, like other times over the past decades, would be a short-term ‘slowdown’ that would quickly dissipate. This is proving not to be the case and it makes it very difficult for workers and their families trying to manage their mortgages and day to day expenses.

The good news is that our other major economic sector – agriculture – is doing very well by all reports. We are expecting a good crop this year (despite a few pockets of hail). Cattle prices remain strong. Again we see the importance of our diver-

sified economy; provincially and locally.

For generations since the earliest settlers, Albertans have been working with the natural riches and promises offered in our province. We have survived difficult eras in the past and continued to build our province.

All across Battle RiverCrowfoot, even in our smallest communities, we take time in the summer to stage parades, fairs and rodeos as well as volunteer, charity, social and communityfocused events. We remember to celebrate the good times as we work individually and as communities to overcome the hard times.

The artifacts in our museums, the floats and costumes in our parades, and many other cultural icons remind us that over the decades we have succeeded in many ways. We teach our children to ‘keep their chins up’ and look toward the good times because they are just around the corner. That is the history of our province.

In the many conversa-

tions I have with constituents at local meetings on issues or at other events, I am thankful that so many folks take the opportunity to express encouraging words and have constructive input and suggestions. As your Member of Parliament, I am proud to report that our local officials, community leaders, and many well-known local citizens are always prepared to tackle difficult situations and work for the best outcomes.

I hope everyone has the opportunity to have a safe and enjoyable holiday this summer. As always, we have a great deal of work to do and it is important for all of us to prepare for that by making sure we are taking time to care for our health and our families.

Sea Serpents send 39 swimmers to provincials

By Murray Green

The Camrose Sea Serpents sent 61 swimmers to regionals in Wetaskiwin on Aug. 12 to 14 and 39 came back with 132 medals and earned a trip to provincials in Edmonton.

“We are in the top five clubs in Alberta and Calgary has two and Edmonton has two, so we are ranked the highest outside of the large cities,” said coach Shane Gau. “For our swimmers to compete with them is amazing. Our entire line-up of swimmers have had a good year and they are very good athletes. Taking home 132 medals at regionals is quite an accomplishment.”

Community-minded individuals will find many opportunities to share their gifts and talents this fall and winter as a member of a Camrose service club.

The Camrose Moose Lodge meets the second and fourth Monday of the month starting at 8 p.m.

“We start the first meeting of the month with a supper that is catered by the Women of the Moose,” said Lodge treasurer Tom Niven.

The Moose Lodge has approximately 22 members on its rolls. The Women of the Moose have between 40 and 50 members. “The number of male members has dropped quite a bit in recent years,” said Niven. “There was a time about 50 years ago that we had more than 200.”

The Moose Lodge and Women of the Moose raise funds by hosting breakfasts (open to the public) the third Sunday of the month. They also work bingos in Wetaskiwin (once a month for the men and once every two months for the women).

“It’s hard to make very much at bingos when you are short of workers,” said Niven.

Money raised by the Moose Lodge and Women of the Moose is channelled directly into the community.

“We raise quite a bit during the course of the year in support of organizations like the cadets, Boy Scouts and Out of School Care (OSCAR) program,” explained Niven.

“With the bingo funds the government says we have to give away 50 per cent of what we make.”

Moose Lodge membership is seen as a way to make new friends and stay in touch with what is happening in the community or the province.

“I have made many friends through the Lodge,” said Niven. “Over the years I have been able to attend Lodge meetings in Calgary, Edmonton, Red Deer, Medicine Hat, Hinton and Lloydminster.”

“The Elks mission statement is to promote and support community needs through volunteer efforts of the local lodges,” said Camrose Elks Lodge president Gerry Czapp.

“It’s all about people helping people. This year we started supporting the Out of School Care (OSCAR) program.”

Camrose Elks Lodge 70 has 29 members who meet the every second Monday of the month, starting at 7:30 in the evening. Meals are served before the winter meetings starting at 6:30 p.m.

“Our numbers have been dwindling in recent years but they are still pretty good,” said Czapp. “We are able to attract a few new members every year.”

The Elks raise funds by working two bingos every month in Wetaskiwin and helping at the Camrose Resort Casino once every three years.

They also host a pancake breakfast at the Lodge every second Sunday of the month.

“We’re going to be having a special pancake breakfast on Aug. 28 and will be donating the funds we raise to breast cancer research,” said Czapp.

The annual Elks Lodge and Royal Purple steak barbecue will be held Aug. 24.

“Anyone is welcome to attend as long as they let us know,” said Czapp. “We usually have a good turnout of relatives and friends.”

The Elks and Royal Purple Fund for Children provides financial assistance for the good and welfare of a person resident in Canada prior to attaining his or her 19th birthday. Money from the fund may be used to purchase hearing aids, auditory trainers, medicine, crutches, braces, technical aids, or books, as well as transportation, food and lodging while the child is being assessed medically.

“Elks lodges across Canada contribute to the fund and the money is given out based on the request,” said Czapp. “We have had a few local families that have been able to access the funds. Our lodge usually tries to match what comes from the national charity.”

Anyone interested in joining the Elks of Canada must complete a membership application and be proposed by a member in good standing at a regular lodge meeting. Membership fees are collected and a ballot/vote upon the admission of the candidate is taken. Once approved, members are ‘initiated” into the Elks by a special and meaningful ceremony. Following this they become members of the national order and receive a warm welcome in any lodge they visit across Canada.

“We like to think of ourselves as a national network of friends,” said Czapp.

Camrose Branch #57 of

the Royal Canadian Legion is one of 171 Legion branches across Alberta and the Northwest Territories that fundraise for their communities, honour the men and women who put their lives on the line for their country, and provide representation, advocacy and financial assistance to serving and retired Veterans and their families. Membership is open to anyone who is 18 years of age or older, a citizen of Canada or a Commonwealth/NATO/wartime allied country.

“It’s a wonderful organization,” said Camrose Legion member Gordon Minnes, who has served as Legion president 11 times. “We have close to 300 paid members and are keeping up with our purpose of serving the veterans, in any way we can, financially or otherwise.”

The Legion raises the majority of its funds through the annual poppy campaign in the weeks leading up to Remembrance Day, but also works bingos every Thursday night at the Legion and twice a month at the Peace Hills Bingo in Wetaskiwin. Money raised is used to support community organizations like the Army Cadets, which receive $700 every month, Cubs and Scouts, Sea Serpents and Camrose Minor Sports.

“We gave away approximately $16,000 in June and will be giving away another $15,000 to $20,000 in November,” said Minnes.

As part of its commitment to veterans and their families, the Camrose Legion grants bursaries through the Poppy Trust Fund to the children, grandchildren and greatgrandchildren of veterans who need financial assistance to pursue a post-secondary education. The branch also awards scholarships through its general fund to recognize scholastic achievement and support youth in their community.

Legion members have the opportunity to compete in darts and cribbage events.

“Depending on their success, they may go on to compete at the national level, and, in some cases, they continue their involvement in the sport to even more success,” says the Legion’s national website.

“Sports promote Legion comradeship and sportsmanship by bringing together members from every branch of the Legion. The events help keep members active physically and in many cases involve the community at large.”

Legion meetings are held on a quarterly basis in February, April, September and November. The next meeting has been scheduled for Nov. 22.

The Camrose Swans and Roses Lions Club, chartered in May 2009, is a member of the International Association of Lions Clubs, which repre-

sents 1.3 million members in 201 countries, and has as its focus the eradication of preventable blindness throughout the world.

“We bring people together for friendships and for a better tomorrow,” said Camrose Swans and Roses Lions Club president Larry Sharuga.

“Our motto is where there is a need there is a Lion.”

The Camrose Swans and Roses Lions Club meets at Centra Cam Vocational Training Association the first and third Wednesday of every month, starting at 7 p.m.

Meetings normally last an hour, after which members have a chance to visit and discuss some of the projects in which they are involved.

“If the subject we are discussing at the meeting takes too long we will table it until the next meeting,” said Sharuga.

The club’s main fundraisers include selling hot dogs and hamburgers at Lindstrand Auction’s cook shack, hosting a magic show that is staged by VIP productions at the Camrose Regional Exhibition every fall, selling Christmas trees and nut trays, and raffling Grey Cup tickets.

“We have been able to raise between $15,000 and $20,000 over the past year for various community organizations and associations, including STARS, the Camrose Women’s Shelter, Food Bank, Christmas Cheer Fund, Silent Santa, Jump Start, Camp He Ho Ha, Camrose Air Cadets and the Battle River Animal Protection Society,” said Sharuga. “We receive quite a few letters asking for donations.”

The club also collects used eye glasses from optometry clinics for distribution by Lions International, supports the cost of training seeing eye dogs, and assists with the cost of student travel exchanges.

“The Millet club helped us finance a student’s trip to Peru so we helped them work a bingo,” said Sharuga.

Lions webinars, or virtual training sessions, are offered on topics ranging from leadership development to membership growth. In the Lions Learning Center, Lions leaders like club officers, district governors and zone chairpersons can take an online course specific to their role. Social media gives all Lions the chance to communicate their service activities to the world.

Members of the Camrose Swans and Roses Lions Club are always valued and made to feel welcome.

“We have 26 members who get along well and are committed to serving their community,” said Sharuga.

“We see ourselves as one big happy family.”

Eddie was born to Jack and Sarah Jardine and was raised on the farm in Torch River, SK near Nipawin. He was part of a large family of ten children including Edna, Mae, Bill, Marjorie, Irene, Bud and Helen, all providing Dad with many nieces and nephews.

Eddie married Margaret Gubb and they had two daughters, Carol and Mona. As he worked away, we were always excited to see Dad when he got home. Never sitting idle, we were kept busy with skis, soccer balls, ping pong, skating, toboganning and ball gloves, and our mother’s sport of swimming. Dad spoke often of his family and took us to Saskatchewan and BC every second summer and in alternating summers, sent Mom and us girls to the Ontario side of her family.

He was a good provider and a huge hockey fan back when the game was real! A lover of music, especially old time fiddle and banjo, he always had the radio playing and enjoyed making cassettes and going to performances.

The road took Dad gold panning and touring the countryside, meeting many people along the way with his trip to the Yukon, his favourite.

Dad’s work was very important as were his co-workers.

He is survived by his wife, two daughters, and son-in-law Oron.

A source of pride and reason to look forward to many large family gatherings with good food and laughter were Eddie’s grandchildren, Angela (Darren), Sharon (David), Jessica, Rio, Tano, Emily, Krista, Alana, Dalton; and great-grandchildren, Tristan, Olivia, Molly, Nicholas and Hayden.

Dad enjoyed going for his coffee and making the rounds.

The past two years were spent living in Stettler, AB, where Dad had many visitors. His family was pleased with the facility and the food, as was Dad. His care and caregivers couldn’t have been better. He had a safe environment and made more friends in his community.

He was predeceased by his father, and many years later his stepfather to whom he was very close; his mother, who he looked up to; and his two brothers that he missed, Jim and Ralph. Not forgotten are brothers-in-law, nieces, nephew and a great-nephew.

Dad will be missed by all.

Dad had a smile and sense of humour that he shared up until his last days. He passed away peacefully, surrounded and loved by his family.

We would like to thank everyone who attended Dad’s Celebration of Life, for the flowers, cards and condolences.

Norman Bjorndalen

Inheriting bad practices

By Bruce Hinkley, Wetaskiwin-Camrose MLA

In today’s MLA update there will not be any new information or legislation, but rather a quick review to debunk some myths and misinformation.

We are in a recession resulting in a decline in consumer spending which has made it extremely difficult for businesses to flourish. The international price of oil started its free fall more than two years ago, well before the last provincial election. Consumer spending has not been curtailed by impending carbon pricing or increases in minimum wages, which do not happen until 2017 and 2018 respectively. To blame a present recession on future events is illogical.

True, Alberta’s unemployment rate has hovered around 7.9 percent but that means 92 percent of Albertans are working and earning incomes.

Which do you choose to focus on? The negative or the positive? We can also ask if some people are living beyond their means and need to reset their priorities. According to U. of Calgary professor Trevor Tombe, Alberta’s employment rate is the highest in Canada.

Plus we have our government plan to create jobs and diversify our economy – for example, $3.5 billion to build and modernize schools; $9 billion in funding to municipalities (actually one of the highest rates in Canada); $90 million for a new Alberta Investor Tax Credit and Entrepreneurship Incubator Program which will help small and medium sized businesses bring their ideas to market.

There is concern about impending tax increases, however, to quote Dave Cournoyer let’s compare some previous tax rates in Alberta: in 1994 (Premier Klein) the corporate income tax rates was 15.5 per cent; today (Premier Notley) it is 12 per cent. The small business tax rate in 1994 was six per cent; today it is three per cent (and going down to two per cent). And for personal income tax brackets at the $50K level in 1994 you paid $4,343; today in 2016 its $2,854. At the $70K income level in 1994 you paid $7,158 compared to 2016’s rate of $4,829. This trend continues through all income brackets.

The two percent corporate and wealth tax increase will not affect 93 per cent of Albertans. Albertans are not and will not be taxed to death.

The pollution penalty, which some are equating to a tax or even a provincial sales tax, is a levy on carbon emissions. People are not in favour of pollution so if you pollute you will pay. Albertans are eager environmental stewards and are very willing to become more efficient and responsible.

Suncor, for example is cutting its greenhouse gas emissions per barrel by 30 per cent.

We as individuals can do as much. The 4.5 cents per litre

on transportation fuel will, as shown by BC, produce a reduction in carbon emissions.

The pollution penalty will not unfairly impact charities as in 2016 our government has already provided $25 million to Family and Community Support Services (the first increase since 2009). To ensure municipalities do not pass down the carbon levy as an increase in property taxes they have been given $2.2 billion in green infrastructure funding to promote energy efficiency. Hopefully, municipalities have already been passing on tax savings due to low gas prices we have had for the past two years. Electricity costs will not go up because another $6.2 billion will be invested directly into the economy, including: $3.4 billion for large scale renewable energy, bioenergy and technology; $2.2 billion will be provided for green infrastructure like transit.

Small business taxes will be cut by 33 per cent (three per cent rate to two per cent) to help them adjust to the cost of the levy. With this cut Alberta has the second lowest small business tax in Canada; and it should mean businesses will not have to pass the levy onto customers.

Farmers are the only group to receive an exemption as the carbon levy will not apply to the use of marked gasoline and diesel by farmers for farming purposes.

Add to this the fact that 60 per cent of Albertans will be receiving cash rebates.

The increase in minimum wage has been welcome news for workers trying to earn a living wage. The increases will be finalized by 2018 at $15 an hour. This future increase is not the cause of any past or present bankruptcies or loss of employment. In fact, the facts from other places (Seattle, Minnesota, New York and California) implementing a graduated minimum increase are showing three things; the increases are not having negligible impact on the job loss or increased consumer costs; but local economies have been stimulated, jobs are being created and businesses are prospering.

The final myth to be busted in this update is that Alberta only pays out when it comes to transfer payments. When we were in boom times we had a moral obligation to help fellow Canadians. Now, we are in a recession the government of Canada is transferring $7.6 billion in 2016 to Alberta.

Our plans to diversify the economy and invest in infrastructure are already paying dividends – new schools, hospitals, roads, bridges, renewable energy...jobs and prosperity.

Some notable grants to our constituency include $466,262 for Camrose County GTF and $3,278,375 for MSI,$178,945 for Bittern Lake in MSI funding and $4,427,481 MSI funds for the City of Camrose.

MLA Bruce Hinkley visited Camrose County on Tuesday, Aug. 2. Along with Camrose County Reeve Don Gregorwich, and Councillors Doug Lyseng and Greg Gillespie, MLA Hinkley was introduced to the County Biomass/Willow Project and the Nature Conservation Centre. MLA Hinkley also heard details on the Solar Project that will be completed this summer on the County administration building. Camrose County’s Strategic Goals, developed in 2014 included a commitment to Green Energy and the Environment and Camrose County is proud to be a leader in these areas.

Century farm families honoured From Agri-News

The Alberta Century Farm and Ranch Award is one of Alberta Agriculture and Forestry’s (AF) most popular recognition programs.

“The Century Farm and Ranch Award distinguishes those farm families that have continuously owned and actively farmed or ranched an original parcel of land for 100 years or more,” said Lillian Chan, program coordinator, AF. Recipients receive a bronze plaque to commemorate the 100-year milestone.

Authenticating historical ownership of land has proved to be a bit challenging at times, so Chan has become very familiar with records distinguishing between homesteads, railway and

Hudson Bay Company lands, designated school lands, and soldier settlements of days gone by.

“It’s harder to prove purchased lands because the purchase agreements were mostly based on handshakes,” said Chan.

But there is good news for 2016 applicants: 1916 was the government Census year, so Census records may be useful as a supporting document. A current land title is also required, and an ownership tree to show how the land was passed down. Chan is available to answer questions and help guide families through the application and required documentation.

Chan brings her own unique historical perspective to the program because she’s been with it from the begin-

ning, and she’s not one to shy away from the impressive statistics.

“Since the program began in 1993, close to 1,600 farm families have received the Century Farm Award.

The oldest century farm we’ve commemorated was settled in 1883, with the fifth generation still operating on the same land!”

AF is honoured to help recognize century farms and ranches in Alberta.

“It’s our way of formally thanking the special families who built the foundation of prairie farming and ranching in Alberta,” said Chan. “Such a heritage is something to be proud of.”

Program information and application forms are available at Alberta Century Farm and Ranch Award.

Buick Envision

Premium Edition filled with excitement Christina McLeod Sales Consultant

By Murray Green

The Buick Envision SUV crossover is a perfect compact vehicle that drives like a mid-size vehicle.

“The Buick Envision fills a specific and vital role in Buick’s crossover lineup by bridging the monumental gap between the Encore and Enclave,” said McClellan Wheaton Chevrolet Buick GMC sales consultant Christina McLeod.

Prior to the Envision, Buick only had two crossovers: the full-size, three-row Enclave and the sub-compact, two-row Encore.

The design is sporty and stylish while also representing being true to the SUV form with a dynamic and sharp front, a smooth sideline and a graceful back. Buick’s signature waterfall grille with drag-reducing aerodynamic properties, wing-style front and rear lights with LED daytime running lights plus HID automatic headlamps, 19-inch aluminum alloy wheels, an aluminum alloy luggage rack, and a wing-shaped spoiler give the Envision an imposing and aggressive stance.

The 2016 Envision features the turbo-charged 2.0 L four-cylinder engine SAE certified at 252 horsepow-

er and 260 lb-ft of torque, which is more standard horsepower and torque than an Audi Q5. It is paired with a third-generation six-speed automatic transmission.

The 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine is capable of propelling the Envision from zero to 100 km/h in 8.4 seconds.

“Performance and efficiency is enhanced with stop and start technology – Buick’s first application on the 2.0 L turbo engine,” said McLeod. “It seamlessly shuts down the engine when the Envision comes to a stop under certain driving conditions, such as a stoplight.

The engine automatically restarts when the driver takes his or her foot off the brake.”

The turbo engine is offered exclusively with AWD, giving the Envision performance consistent with vehicle’s ride and handling capabilities. The turbocharger features a twinscroll design that helps the engine deliver a broad torque band, for a greater feeling of power on demand. Most of the peak torque is available from 1,800 rpm to 5,500 rpm and the full 260 lb-ft of peak torque from 3,000 to 4,000 rpm.

The engine is designed with refinement-enhancing features such as balance

shafts and sound-attenuating components; and is isolated on a hydraulically damped substructure that helps quell noise and vibration. Four powertrain mounts are used rather than the conventional three.

The interior of the 2016 Buick Envision adopts Buick’s signature 360-degree integrated interior design for a blend of luxury, refinement and advanced technologies.

With its driver-friendly centre console, all controls are within easy reach. Cus-

tomers have a choice of a burgundy or swallowtail black interior while black piano accents create a premium effect. French-style dual stitching further accentuates the model’s elegance.

Some other highlights of the Envision’s cabin include adjustable seats, rear seats that can slide forward or backward within a maximum range of 180 mm, as well as a panoramic moon roof.

The Buick Envision is equipped with Buick’s advanced IntelliLink connectivity system that connects the vehicle with people and their smart phones. The system includes an eightinch high-definition touchscreen, multifunctional buttons on the steering wheel, a touch pad and voice control.

The crossover’s chassis consists of a MacPherson strut front suspension, an optimized and fully independent four-link rear suspension, and a full front subframe. This gives the compact crossover exceptional rigidity and precise handling.

You can see the 2016 Buick Envision at McClellan Wheaton Chevrolet Buick GMC at 3850-48 Avenue, Camrose. Phone 780-6722355 and ask for one of the sales professionals.

The community of Fridhem will be busy during the Prairie Fun Days weekend, Aug. 27 and 28.

The Battle River Writing Centre will be hosting a Writing Retreat on Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Writers at any stage are welcome. That means beginning writers, want-towrite writers, professional writers. It’s a great time to meet some writers, see their work, talk about writing and learn.

There is plenty of writing space at Fridhem: long tables, small tables and, if you prefer, outside. You may need a sweater.

There’s no cost, just bring your lunch or lunch items to share. And readiness to write, or at least to think about writing. Battle River Writing Centre supplies the coffee, tea, and fresh prairie water from a real water well.

Some will be writing their responses to the Alberta Heritage Art Series.

The Alberta Archaeological Survey suggested at the National Trust Conference last October that Battle River Writers consider writing about the paintings in historically designated places. Fridhem Baptist Church, designated as a Province of Alberta Municipal Resource, is the first venue for the project.

Project leader Ted Griffiths laminated all 10 of the posters.

Some will be writing about subjects of their own choosing. Either way, it will be a great day for writers and people who stop by as part of Prairie Fun Days.

Matins You are also welcome to come for Matins on Sunday at 8 a.m. Matins means “Morning song of birds” and there are many birds to sing for you in the fields and woods surrounding the church.

Matins will be led by Fr. Peter LeBlanc and Joy LeBlanc. The Matins opens with the reading of six morning psalms, followed by morning meditations and the CHRYSLER singing of special praisClient: CANADA Project: AUG 2016 DAA ROC RETAIL NEWSP es and psalms.

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.

Camrose Booster

By Murray Green

Tim MacKay of Camrose won the TriProv Track and Field Meet in high jump event in Regina, Aug. 5 to 7.

He finished the summer outdoor season with the second highest jump in Canada for the year in the U-18 group with a 2.01m jump (the top was 2.02m).

McKay reached his personal best high jump of 2.01 metres at the Canadian Junior and Senior Track and Field Championships and Team Canada Olympic Trials in Edmonton at Foote Field.

His height earned him the top jump in youth competition (his own age group) and fourth in juniors, the age group older than him.

The Camrose Composite High School Grade 12 student actually tied for third with a University of Calgary athlete at Foote Field in Edmonton. He went into the meet with a personal best of 1.95m.

He is taking a break before heading into the winter season. The Canadian Games are in Winnipeg next year and McKay has his sights on showing well in that high profile event.

The Legion nationals are in Brandon, Manitoba next season as well.

The high jumper will be training and maintaining his routine over the winter months as well as playing CCHS volleyball and basketball as cross-training.

Kodiaks open training camp with new hope

By Murray Green

Unless your team ends the previous year with a championship trophy, there is always room for improvement.

The same is true for the Camrose Kodiaks in the Alberta Junior Hockey League.

Camrose reached the southern division final before losing to the Brooks Bandits.

This year, they want a trip to the RBC tournament and it all began with the opening of conditioning camp on Aug. 20. Regular training camp followed shortly after.

The Ray McIsaac Cup will be presented to the winner of the annual inter-squad game. This year’s game will be played on Sunday, Aug. 28 at 7 p.m. at the EnCana Arena.

“Ray was a great man who loved Camrose and loved the Kodiaks. I want to thank Colin Christenson for telling me about an idea he had. I loved the idea and now we will always remember Ray each year when the Cup is handed out,” said Kodiaks general

manager and coach Boris Rybalka.

“We would love to see a huge crowd for the first time the Ray McIsaac Cup is handed out,” he added.

The Kodiaks golf tournament will be held at the Camrose Golf Course prior to the game. Check with the office to register for the event.

Camrose will host an exhibition tournament on Aug. 31 to Sept. 2. The Kodiaks, Sherwood Park, Spruce Grove and Kindersley play games at 3 and 7

p.m. each day. Camrose plays Sherwood Park at 3 p.m. on Aug. 31, Spruce Grove at 7 p.m. on Sept. 1 and Kindersley at 3 p.m. on Sept. 2.

The exhibition season includes a three-game series with Sherwood Park. Games in Camrose are at 7 p.m. on Sept. 9 and 10.

The regular season will be launched on Sept. 16 with the Drumheller Dragons here for a 7 p.m. start. The following night, Sept. 17, the Okotoks Oilers provide the opposition.

Proposed Bylaw 2877-16 Smoke Free Bylaw City Council is proposing to pass a new Smoke Free Bylaw. The purpose of this bylaw is to regulate smoking in public places in order to promote the safe, enjoyable and reasonable use of public property for the benefit of all citizens.

Bylaw 2877-16 will enhance what is already in place through the Provincial Statue “Tobacco and Smoking Reduction Act”. The new bylaw has stronger provisions than the provincial legislation such as: • Smoking (and vaping) are prohibited in the following places: bingo establishments, casinos, drinking establishments, grandstands, outdoor public events, patios, private clubs, public buildings, public transportation vehicles, restaurants, sidewalk cafes, workplaces. No designated smoking area will be permitted in these places excepting for outdoor public events that are held for more than one day.

• Smoking (and vaping) are prohibited within 10 m of a playground, seasonal skating rink, skate park, sports field, water spray park or toboggan hill.

This new bylaw allows people to safely utilize indoor/outdoor facilities and areas in a smoke free environment and protects our children and community from exposure to secondhand smoke.

If you are interested in obtaining a copy of the bylaw and/or providing comments, please email legservices@camrose.ca no later than September 9, 2016. To access the proposed bylaw on the City website visit: http://www.camrose.ca/smoke-free-bylaw.
