For team viability, the Camrose Kodiaks, who are having a promising season, need significantly more community support. The perfect storm of a sagging provincial economy, late harvest in the area and reduced activity and confidence in the oil patch has resulted in smaller crowds and less corporate support this season. Board members for Camrose Sport Development Society, a non-profit organization, are…

Pounding the pavement hard

…in order to garnish renewed support of the Camrose Kodiaks. The team has typically, in its 20-year history, been one of the top AJHL teams in terms of both on-ice and off-ice performance. Ways you can help the team: Purchase season tickets for the last half of the season. Buy a Christmas 10-pack of tickets for only $100. Rent a group/corporate skybox for a future game. Note that great seats are always for sale in advance of, or on, game days. Bring a plush toy to the December 3rd Teddy Bear Toss game (helping the team help others). Buy your tickets now for the Kodiaks biggest fundraiser of the year – the annual Kodiaks/Camrose Sport Development Dinner and Silent Auction.

This unique evening on Saturday, February 11, 2017 features renowned magician/mentalist Jeff Newman. Tickets make great Christmas gifts!

Philanthropy…

Is there a cure for that

FORTUNATELY, NO. Philanthropy is a marvelous quality that each of us has inside. It’s a generosity of spirit, a desire to help, and a firm belief that you can make a real difference in your community regardless of how much or how little you have to give.

Walter and Katherine Busenius, philanthropists, have the spirit.

They are shown chatting with Dana Andreassen, Executive Director, about the Foundation. Walter said, “It’s now or never, you can’t take it with you! We have a nice nest-egg for the grandchildren but throught this was a good place to put a few extra dollars, as a way to give something back to the community.”

They chose to accomplish this with

‘No carbon tax’ message sent to NDP

By Murray Green

In rallies across the province, Albertans sent the message they don’t want a carbon tax. However, the important question is – is the government going to listen?

About 200 people gathered in Camrose on Nov. 5 in front of Icon Safety Consulting to protest the proposed carbon tax, while hundreds of others did the same in 11 other rallies across the province.

The peaceful rally allowed organizer Tina Fox, Crowfoot MP Kevin Sorenson and Battle River-Wainwright MLA Wes Taylor to freely talk about the dangers of the proposed tax.

“Our (Alberta Wide Rally Against The NDP) mission is to get 500,000 names, maybe a million, on the carbon tax petitions and place them at the feet of the NDP at the legislature. If we get a referendum out of it, great. If we are a thorn in the side of the NDP for the next two and a half years, great,” said Fox. “We are all average Albertans. We are adults that demand an adult discussion.

The carbon tax will have an effect on everything we buy from fuel to groceries.”

Currently, the NDP government is sitting with a 19 per cent popularity rating.

“We demand a referendum because we want to be heard.

They didn’t run on this in their campaign. Why are they doing this when the economy is down? How is a carbon tax going to change the weather?” she asked. “Canada is carbon neutral because of the vast forests.”

She pointed out that businesses are struggling to stay open and that additional taxes will further hurt the economy.

MLA Taylor thanked everyone for being politically engaged. “When I speak in the dome to the NDP it is like speaking to deaf ears.

When I come out here I can see how things are affecting you. No question, our province is facing a challenging time. We saw 100,000 jobs vanish in 2015. That’s you, your neighbours and friends.

It effects everyone. We have had downturns in the past, but something feels different this time,” said Taylor.

“Every level of government is working against Alberta at a time when we can least afford it. All of the taxes have increased. By 2019, we will be $60 billion in debt. That’s $57,142 for every family in the province and that is growing.”

It’s estimated the carbon tax will inject $3 billion into the province’s register.

Together with a minimum wage hike, the economy looks bleak until the next election.

Albertans are left with the bill and the carbon tax is another way of paying for it.

“It takes money away from hard working Albertans. The carbon tax will make everything more expensive,” said Taylor. “With the right vision, our province can come roaring back. Scrap the carbon tax.”

The NDP government decided to impose a carbon tax to reduce greenhouse emissions and promote alternative energy. The tax, set to come into affect on Jan. 1, 2017, will place levies on fuels, which will lead to rising costs on virtually everything sold in the province. The government estimates a single person will pay on average $191 more of tax per year (or $16/month), while a family of four can expect to pay $338 (or $28/ month) more in tax.

“We are here today because we are frustrated.

We are here today because we are disappointed. We are not happy and are concerned with the direction government is going. Pipeline plans are shut down so the east can get oil from countries like Venezuela and Saudi Arabia instead of Alberta. They are not even arguing about jobs in their own communities,” said Sorenson. “They don’t understand it is a loss of tax revenue not just for their community, but for the entire country. We are seeing billions of dollars leave Alberta in the form of investment and not coming back.”

He said Alberta is losing

customers and it takes time to try and get those customers back. “Our government is handcuffing the economy.

Our Prime Minister had no intention of having a balanced budget. He came in with a $10 billion deficit cap and last April the budget announced $30 billion in debt. This past week it was revealed that the money didn’t create one single full time job. Now he is saying that is not enough, he needs another $32 billion,” explained Sorenson. “We are not just handcuffing our oil industry, we are handcuffing our sons and daughters, and our grandsons and granddaughters. They are the ones that will pay for it.”

Everyone will pay more taxes to offset the deficits and the carbon tax. “We have to say no to carbon taxes. Americans are not talking about carbon taxes because they know it will cost jobs. They get it. Even if it means parties joining together to defeat the NDP, so be it. We have to say no.”

Self Contained Housing Program. He also provided leadership on Disaster Recovery Housing Initiatives for the 2011 Slave Lake Wildfire, the 2013 Southern Alberta Flooding and most recently the 2016 Northern Alberta Wildfire.

Prior to coming to the provincial government, Leathwood was the executive director at Capital Region Housing Corporation in Edmonton, a provincial housing management body that serves the capital region with social and affordable housing options. From 1993 to 2003, Leathwood served as the general manager of

the Grande Spirit Foundation, another housing body that provides housing and related services to seniors and families in communities in the Grande Prairie area.

“I have worked with Denis and the Bethany Group in various capacities for many years,” said Mike Leathwood. “I am excited to join the organization and getting to better know the residents, staff, the members of the boards, as well as the communities.”

He will officially take over duties in January 2017, but will be visiting Camrose and the organization over the next two months. He and

Bethany Group names new president, CEO

By Murray Green

After a long and thoughtful process, the Bethany Group announced Mike Leathwood as the successful candidate to assume the president and CEO responsibilities.

He joins the Bethany Group from the Government of Alberta, where he has served as assistant deputy minister with the ministry of seniors and housing from December 2008 to September 2016.

In his role, Leathwood oversaw the majority of provincial housing programs, including the Seniors’ Lodge Program and the Seniors

his wife are also planning to buy a place in Camrose so he can be closer to the corporate office.

Earlier this year, Denis Beesley, president and CEO, announced his retirement.

He has served with the organization for 18 years.

Under his leadership, Bethany Group has become a respected and valued non-profit organization that works with governments of all levels, communities, and similar organizations to improve the lives of clients, as well as the communities in which it serves.

As well, the organization pioneered a model of cooper-

ation that created new partnerships with several other non-profit organizations to offer health and housing services.

“We are thankful for Denis’ leadership over the years and will miss his vision and dedicated service to the organization,” said Dr. Odell Olson, board chair for the Bethany Group. “Finding the right person to follow him is not an easy task, but we believe we have found someone with the experience and vision to continue the work of the Bethany Group into the future. We also wish Denis the very best in his retirement.”

REFLECTIONS

by Bonnie Hutchinson I don’t talk politics

I don’t comment on politics in this column and I’m not going to start now.

Except–I’m writing this two days after the American presidential election. Yesterday, everywhere I went, it’s all anyone was talking about.

This morning my inbox was full of more commentary. Here’s some of what I’ve been thinking. I hope it’s still relevant. *** Here in East Central Alberta, we’ve experienced three elections in the past year and a half. We were eligible to vote in two of them. The provincial election in May 2015 and the federal election in October 2015 had many of us talking politics and what kind of province and country we want; who we liked and who we didn’t. It seems the US election was the topic of even more conversations than the two elections in which we could vote.

Our polarities were in sharp focus. Rural. Urban. Economy. Environment. Gender. Inclusion. Protection. And that other issue–in all three elections, some of us didn’t like any available option. Which was the least awful alternative?

Then there was the polarity of reactions. We could look at the same results and have wildly different emotions and thoughts. Shock. Outrage. Grief. Fear. What will become of us now? Joy. Hope. Vindication. Excitement. What could be possible now? *** With our polarities on such visible display, we are in great danger. We may begin to demonize those with whom we disagree, and tear apart our countries and communities.

The old politics of “right” and “left” do not serve us any more. The old ideologies of capitalism and socialism do not serve us any more. To solve our genuine problems, we need to reach out and understand people who not only think differently than we do, but people with whom we are uncomfortable. People we don’t like; people we have held in contempt; people we don’t trust; people we fear. *** Last week, I had an instructive experience. I was with someone that I decided a long time ago has such different views that it’s better to keep our conversations to chit chat.

The person made a comment I disagreed with. Usually I would discount the comment mentally and think of a way to change the subject.

Instead, I surprised myself by asking an open-ended question to invite a longer response. As I actually listened, I began to see something differently than I have before. What I thought was black/white yes/no right/wrong had other possibilities. I could feel my mind expanding. More importantly, I could feel my appreciation of the person expanding. *** Even people (like me!) who think we are somewhat openminded, have parts of our belief systems carved in stone. We think we know absolute truth about what is right or wrong, true or false.

We need to hold fast to our values while being willing to listen until–though we may not change our minds–we at least understand what the other person believes. Then we may find common ground. We may even be able to see ways to solve our intractable problems, whether it’s a family circumstance, a community project, an economy that serves us all or environmental actions that allow future generations to survive and flourish within the finite limits of our planet. *** If you can’t make yourself listen because it’s kind and considerate, do it for pure self-interest.

The essence of brilliant salesmanship is to understand what matters to potential clients (or friends and relatives) and provide solutions or new possibilities that they believe will enrich their lives. The essence of brilliant negotiating is to understand what matters most to opposing sides and figure out a way to provide that to both sides. The essence of a stable economy–whether personal or national–is to provide products and services that solve others’ problems or create desirable new possibilities.

That all involves the ability to listen until deep understanding is achieved. There. That’s one of the places my mind went after the US presidential election. Hope it’s still relevant! *** If you have comments about this column or suggestions for future topics, send a note to Bonnie@BonnieHutchinson.com

US election

The United States election, which took place on Nov. 8 has turned out to be better than anyone would think.

This president has no ties to any secret society or to the international bankers club.

There were four candidates. Trump, Clinton, Johnson and Stein. Trump is the declared winner.

I am amused at the

responses of most people in this world. There are few men alive who have been attacked by so many people, yet have not only survived, but have succeeded against all odds. About 71 per cent for Clinton and 28 per cent for Trump. Clinton had just under $700,000 to spend in her campaign, while Trump spent just under $250,000 which a lot of it was his own money.

Knowledge is the key to success. Now, I am aware of the power of campaign promises. I know of someone who has made 285 plus promises. He has done a few but not all of them. I read on the website www.npr.org that in Gettysburg, PA at the end of October a speech, which Trump gave on what he plans to do within the first 100 days of office.

This plan involves cleaning up Washington includ-

ing by imposing term limits on Congress, protecting the American people and restoring the rule of law.

He also laid out his plan to work with Congress to introduce 10 pieces of legislation. Repealing Obama Care, fund the construction of a wall to stop the run on of the Mexican American border. If you have ever watched the show Border Security, you will know what I mean. This wall will be built only if they get cooperation with Mexico.

That is their problem as well as the United States.

This is a wait and see situation. All I am saying is this is too early to jump to a conclusion that America is doomed. It is possible that America’s best days are just ahead of us. Time will tell if I am right or if I am wrong.

Taylor offers review of tuition freeze

By Murray Green

Wildrose shadow innovation and advanced education minister Wes Taylor offered mixed reviews on the NDP continuing its post-secondary tuition freeze through the 2017-18 academic year.

“Once again, the NDP is taking a short-sighted approach to an issue that needs a long-term, fiscallysustainable solution,” said Battle River-Wainwright MLA Taylor. “Wildrose maintains that indexing postsecondary tuition and fee increases to the rate of inflation is the very best way to ensure tuition remains affordable for students and to protect the viability of Alberta’s worldclass education institutions.”

The tuition freeze has student support, but not sending more funds to universities may not be the best solution.

“This is a position supported by students and administrators across the province who understand the need for sustainable policies to address the rising costs of tuition and who expect better solutions from their government on this subject,” added Taylor.

Battle for our minds

It was the weekend the women went away, Camrose style. Thirty-six women from my church had a recent opportunity to go on an overnight retreat together.

We had an inspiring speaker, heartfelt music, food we didn’t make ourselves and glorious free time. I went on a horseback ride in the thick snow, took an archery class with a compound bow, went on a nature walk through the coulee and enjoyed a lively evening game of ping pong. It was a bit like being a young girl at summer camp, which brings back delightfully fun memories for me.

Originally the organizers had hoped for a beautiful autumn retreat, with calming walks in the fall leaves.

Instead, the trees were blanketed with thick snow, but it was equally beautiful.

Some of the notes I made during the speaker sessions seemed random, but put together they are actually ideas on how to improve life. Some are direct quotes from the speaker, while others are thoughts that popped into my head: pray for my kids every day; spend more quality time with my parents; slow down, find more energy for my family; discover the difference between joy and happiness; be more of who I am; become more present by thinking of myself less; learn the power of encouragement; use small things to bless others; walk wholeheartedly and leave baggage behind; don’t try to be like someone else; and make people feel better after time spent in your presence.

Really, a whole column could be written about each one of these instructions!

There were three main truths that stuck with me from the weekend: people who snore always fall asleep first; we need to take charge of our thoughts and words; and that God wants us to slow down in our relationship with God and others.

I’ve heard that message a lot lately about slowing down. Never before in history have we been so proud of being busy. But to slow down in relationships was a new one to me. That means listening more than talking. Removing distractions while you are visiting. Allowing ourselves to go deep in our conversations. Making it a priority to help others feel good about themselves.

We have a battle for our minds. It is up to us to take every thought captive, replace negative thoughts with positive thoughts, negative actions with positive actions. What a world it would be if every time we had a negative thought about someone, we replaced it with a positive thought and followed up by giving that person a kind word or gesture.

Over thanksgiving weekend, we stayed with good friends of ours. In the afternoon, my five-year-old son wanted to head back out into the fresh snow and away from all the girls dressing up like princesses. As we heaved chunks of snow onto the ground and listened for the satisfying thunk sound it made, I found my mind drifting into the next day, and what was coming up in the week ahead.

I forced myself back into the present by thinking “Today is today. I’m not going to think about tomorrow.”

I saw a sign in a shop recently that said “Live what you love.” To me, this means not just loving, but showing love through our actions. Love your husband more by texting a love message during the day or thanking him for being a good provider and hard worker. Love your children more by bending down on your knees to get on their level while they are speaking or playing. Love your parents more by thanking them for all the school forms they filled out for you long ago and by playing their favourite board game with them. Love your friends more by giving them a phone call and not saying a single thing about yourself.

That, to me, is slowing down in our relationships and learning to “live what you love.”

GRAND OPENING

Murray Green, Camrose Booster Interiors On Main business partners Gayle Holtz and Carl Langeveldt were joined by Camrose and District Chamber of Commerce executive director Sharon Anderson, Mayor Norm Mayer, Chamber president Tanya Fox and Downtown Camrose member Debbie Thompson in celebrating the grand re-opening of the design and accessories store.

Downtown Camrose looks ahead

By Lori Larsen

After setting out on a three-year renewal program to re-build the organization, Downtown Camrose has accomplished the undertaking and presented the update to City of Camrose council during the Oct. 3 committee of whole meeting.

Downtown Camrose chair Michael Wetsch, vicechair Debbie Thompson and manager Allan Walkey provided information on the organization’s activities and aspirations for future plans.

“The most significant accomplishment this year was getting incorporation for not-for-profit, officially we are Downtown Camrose Development,” said Wetsch.

“This will allow us to apply for and access additional resources of funding beyond the current levy that we had already.”

The next phase in the renewal process was to engage members of the Downtown organization.

Using the North American Industry System the organization developed a better understanding of the classifications of the different businesses in the downtown core.

“We need to work on figuring out what it is that our members need and want

and how we can meet their needs,” commented Wetsch.

“We also need to determine with the levy we have, what we can do with that money and how we can use it to best serve all the members.”

Wetsch expressed the desire of Downtown Camrose to attract businesses to the downtown area and ultimately get businesses to remain there with the use of a marketing strategy. He spoke of some of the other activities taken on including the One Less Trip initiative encouraging residents to shop local, participation in Reach and a group of provincial wide business revitalizations zones and the success of the Downtown Farmers’ Market and future expansion.

Councillor PJ Stasko inquired as to specifically what the expansion of the Farmers’ Market would entail. Debbie Thompson explained the vision for the market’s expansion is to include bringing in more craft and food vendors and more busters, with possibly more road space, but cautioned that they did not want the market to become too big.

Councillor Agnes Hoveland questioned the presenters about any nega-

NEW SHOWROOM

tive commentary in regards to competing with the Farmer’s Market held in Duggan Mall on Thursday nights.

Wetsch replied, “Ultimately we are not trying to compete with them. We are offering something a little bit different than what they are offering. We would rather see joint advertising or joint initiatives come out of this and suggest to customers to check the one in the mall out from this hour to this hour then come check out the one downtown, as well as the shops downtown.”

Councillor Ma x Lindstrand asked about the challenges facing downtown Camrose. Wetsch referred to the economic downturn that all of Alberta is facing, “Downtown businesses are seeing significant reductions in sales and some businesses are closing up shop. We are trying to figure out ways to keep those businesses around or how to fill those vacancies and empty lots that we have downtown.

“I think the other challenge we face is figuring out how to meet all the needs of all the different businesses.”

Murray Green, Camrose Booster The grand opening of the Battle River Plumbing and Heating showroom was celebrated with City of Camrose Mayor Norm Mayer cutting the ribbon. Scott Streich, left, Brad Streich, Kathy Streich, the mayor, Ron Streich and Shanna Chupa helped open the showroom that features new popular products from which to choose.

City introduces new tool for breaking down taxes

By Lori Larsen

If you have ever wondered exactly where your tax dollars are allocated, the City of Camrose has the tool to find out.

The Property Tax Breakdown Tool(PTBT)is a new feature on the city website that allows residents to see a detailed breakdown of exactly where their tax assessment dollars are allocated.

“I am often asked by residents exactly where their tax dollars are spent,” said city manager Malcolm Boyd. “So I thought it would be useful to residents to have a tool that would clearly show the services they get and how much is spent on each.”

Being new to the role of city manager, Boyd himself has been learning exactly what costs are involved in the operation of the city and felt that with the help of this tool, residents could also gain a better understanding of where their dollars are spent.

“Over the course of the last two years the city has been conducting a Municipal Service Level Assessment,” added Boyd. “This assessment was basically a study to review all the services the city is responsible for, the cost of providing these services and how well the city is doing at providing these services to the residents.”

Services such as trail

maintenance, the dog pound, business licencing, the museum, arts and culture are just a few that are provided by the city but which may be less familiar to the average citizen.

“City council is responsible for setting service levels and making service level decisions and directing administration,”said Boyd. “Over the course of the last 18 months department managers and supervisors have gone through a process of educating council members on the specific services and cost of those services.

“They (managers / supervisors) provided information to council on their jobs, what’s involved in doing their jobs and the challenges they face.

One of the outcomes of this review was an analysis of where city moneys are allocated, relative to the services provided.

With that information at their fingertips, city staff developed a tool to show the breakdown of where individual household tax dollars are spent.

of main categories of services with the specific dollar value allotted to that category from your total taxes.

Scrolling over top indi-

vidual categories will show a description of all services provided under that category.

The implementation

of the tool is another way the City of Camrose hopes to keep residents informed and assist in providing quality service.

Using the tool

Using the tool is quick and easy. From the city Web page www.camrose.ca/ PTBT enter the assessed value of your property in the space provided then click calculate.

A chart will appear containing your total property tax assessment and a graph

The new City of Camrose Property Tax Breakdown Tool (PTBT) is available on the city website for residents to view a breakdown of exactly where their property tax dollars are allocated. The example above is taken from an average Camrose property value of $280,000 with estimated taxes of $2,929.48

Camrose economic development remains stable

By Lori Larsen As we approach the end of 2016 many Albertans, including Camrosians, wonder about the affects this somewhat tumultuous year has had on their communities.

However, driving a r o u n d t h e C it y o f C a m rose and seeing a number of buildings and subdivision in various stages of development, one might feel somewhat assured that Camrose is, at the very least, holding its own.

City of Camrose director of planning and development Aaron Leckie noted that the indication for Camrose in the sense of overall development is that it is remaining stable.

The city uses previous year’s numbers and comparisons to development or lack of development in other Alberta communities to gauge where Camrose stands.

for 24 duplex lots and a single- family dwelling in Valleyview West and the other is for Valleyview West, phase one B and C (21 single-family and four multi-family lots).”

Leckie mentioned other projects including phase five of Southwest Meadows consisting of 32 duplex lots and 21 single family development lots and Ironwood Estates consisting of 29 single-family development lots (south of the railway bridge intersecting 50 Street).

“Subdivisions are a strong indication of development within the next year or two,” explained Leckie. “We almost always see a big bump in the number of development and building permits in the next year or two following subdivision.”

However Leckie did indicate that other market forces impact home development.

Leckie indicated the number of subdivision applications are consistent with, if not a little higher than, the previous fiveyear average.

“So far in 2016 we have completed seven subdivisions, two of those have been major. One is

In 2016 (as of Oct. 26) the total number of permits issued in Camrose including, decks, accessory buildings, signs, fences and compliance certificates is 351.

The total number of permits issued year end in 2015 was 406 and in 2014, 411 permits.

Subdivision growth

Permits issued

Leckie explained that 2014 and 2015 were the busiest years for minor permits since 2007. The five year average for small permits was 318.

“So we will likely exceed that number,” said Leckie noting that 2014 was one of the busiest years on record since 2008.

We are stable, to say the least, and our numbers are fairly consistent with our five-year average across the board.”

C o m p l i a n c e certificates(a request for municipal assurance that on-site conditions at the time of sale are compliant with all statutory documents including Camrose Land Use Bylaw) are down a bit which Leckie said is usually an indication that there is less real estate moving.

“Major permits (commercial or industrial), ones that generate large revenue for the city have not dropped off in numbers but have dropped off in values,” he said.

While the value of the permits is lower, the amount of work and time for the city to process them remains the same.

Because the cash flow and ability to do projects

of major retail developers such as Brentwood and Cornerstone is determined by detailed analysis and economical development provincially and nationally, there is a downturn in the amount of larger real estate investments.

Leckie did state however, that Camrose is seeing an increase in smaller local developers leading infill and commercial projects.

“Smaller local developers realize Camrose doesn’t get the booms that other communities do when the price of oil is high but we don’t get the busts that other communities do either.

We are much more stable and steady in terms of growth.”

of rental property in Camrose according to Leckie.

“New rentals have added to the amount of inventory that is available. I think it is a stable market in that renters and landlords are on an equal playing field.”

The new trend of tiny home development is also growing. The project located on 46 Street and 48 Avenue has completely sold out and according to Leckie the developer is planning another 12 unit project as well as a four commercial bay project with eight condominium units on the second and third floor at the vacant corner of 51 Street and 48A Avenue.

“One interesting factor that I’ve noticed this year that I haven’t seen before is our single family development permits has fallen off quite a bit,” said Leckie.

“But that has been made up by the volume of multiunit development projects.

Multi-family dwelling units has actually outpaced single family dwelling development and it may be a sign of the times.”

Part of that tendency has also changed the face

To summarize Leckie said looking over the five year average the city’s development is fairly stable.

“All categories, with the exception of our compliance certificates, are within five per cent of what we have done in the previous years. Some areas are a little bit higher and some are little bit lower, but the fact is we are still continuing to see development.”

Men Who Fell To Earth Celebrate ’80s

By Murray Green

Listening to music in the ’80s meant a lot of dancing and partying. The band Men Who Fell To Earth celebrate the music you fell in love with.

They will be at the Bailey Theatre on Friday, Nov. 18 starting at 8 p.m.

If you remember anything from that time period, you remember the music parties. It is almost redundant: anything ’80s is bound to be a party by default.

The ’80s Party at the Bailey Theatre is a celebration of an era of crazy trends, over-the-

top fashion, and some of the most original and memorable pop music ever made.

You can relive the alternative rock and pop sounds of Billy Idol, Simple Minds, The Cult and U2 from the band Men Who Fell to Earth.

Cook returns to Camrose for instrumental show

By Murray Green

Last year, Jesse Cook released CD One World and he’ll be performing those songs at the Jeanne and Peter Lougheed Performing Arts Centre on Nov. 18 at 7:30 p.m.

Jesse is the one of the most successful totally instrumental artists in a generation. Few other Instrumental artists can headline the major theatres in across North America and has made the dent in the International Marketplace that Jesse has in the past decade.

With over a million and a half records sold around the world, nobody really even comes close.

For Jesse Cook, music has been a journey. “Over the years, I’ve taken my music and tried to cross-pollinate it with music from different

parts of the world,” explains the 50-year-old global-guitar virtuoso, Cook. “For the (2003) album Nomad, I went to Cairo and recorded with musicians there. On my (2009) record, The Rumba Foundation, I went to Colombia and worked with musicians from Cuba as well.

For me, the question has always been: Where did you go? Where did you take your guitar?”

The short answer this time? Nowhere. And everywhere. After two decades of criss-crossing the world in restless pursuit of inspiration, innovation and collaboration, the Paris-born, Toronto-raised Cook changed course for his ninth studio album One World,. Instead of exotic locales, he stayed home in his studio. Instead of a foreign legion of performers,

he relied on his own devices.

And instead of exploring cul de sacs of music—flamenco, classical, rumba, world beat, pop, blues or jazz—he united them.

“On this record, it’s not really about going someplace,” he said of the album, whose cover depicts a vast, ancient tree. “The idea is that there really is just one world. If you pull your focus back far enough, you start to see all music as being branches of the same tree.

They’re all connected to the same trunk from way back.

“For example, my strange way of playing guitar is a hybrid of styles. I was a classical guitarist as a kid, and I studied flamenco and then I studied jazz. So there are three musical and guitar traditions in my background.

And one of the forms I use,

rumba flamenco, is itself a hybrid created in the 1800s when sailors were coming back to Spain from Cuba, having heard these Cuban rhythms. And here I am, 150 years later, taking it and mixing it back with modern music and seeing where it takes me. Music is a constantly evolving thing.”

As is Cook’s creative approach. Despite its humble home-made origins, he begins another chapter in the multi-tasking artist, composer and producer’s quest. His destination: The digital realm. To create the disc’s emotive melodies, fluid grooves and rich sonic tapestries, he incorporated technology more than ever before. Give credit to his precocious young assistant.

“I have two small children, and my son is forever

trying to get on my computer.

If I’m in my studio, he’ll come in and sit down and just start pushing buttons and making things happen in the recording program I use. At first I was terrified he would mess things up. But, he actually got really good at poking around. I started going, ‘Wow, what’s that? What are you doing? Let me in there!’

I started writing tunes using weird loops and metallic and electronic sounds.”

The journey continues.

Hook, Smee and pirate introduce a classic to youngsters.

By Murray Green

We all learned about Peter Pan as a child, but a very entertaining rendition for children of all ages will offer a different view of the pirate tale.

Peter Pan will be showing at the Jeanne and Peter Lougheed Performing Arts Centre on Nov. 19 at 2 p.m.

“DuffleBag Theatre is very excited to present their adaptation of Peter Pan in Camrose. As with all DuffleBag Theatre performances, you can expect the unexpected as members of the audience are invited into the show to play the main parts,” said artistic director Marcus Lundgren. “With the hilarity and improvisation that ensues, it truly is a wonderful experience and is suitable for all ages.”

In their refreshing adaptations of classic fairy tales,

DuffleBag Theatre audience members are used to fill out the cast. The resulting excitement and spontaneity creates hilarity for all and forms a perfect introduction to the classics.

“Since forming in London, Ontario in 1992, DuffleBag Theatre now tours extensively across Canada, into the United States, and overseas to countries like Singapore, Malaysia, Vietnam and Brunei. That’s why they’re called the “nearly worldfamous” DuffleBag Theatre,” he added.

To purchase tickets visit the Lougheed Arts Centre website at www.camroselive. ca or call the Lougheed Box Office at 780-608-2922 Monday to Friday from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. and Saturday from 1 to 4:30 p.m. It is also open one hour prior to all performances.

Children’s television stars Bobs & LoLo bring excitement

By Murray Green

Three-time Juno nominated singer-songwriters Bobs and LoLo will be performing at the Bailey Theatre on Sunday, Nov. 20 at 3 p.m. as the final act in the Bailey Kids series for 2016.

If you don’t know who Bobs & LoLo are—just ask any preschooler. Bobs & LoLo are dedicated to connecting children to nature with music, movement and make-believe.

Bobs & LoLo are the creators and stars of the upbeat, musical preschool series Sing, Dance and Play with Bobs & LoLo. They were named Canada’s Favourite Kids’ Entertainer in a nationwide poll by CBC Music.

Bobs & LoLo have written and recorded six award-winning albums, a musical DVD and a new children’s book called “Run Salmon Run.” Their recently released new album Dirty Feet is a 2016 JUNO award nominee for Children’s Album of the Year.

The duo share musical adventures that engage, inspire and educate young audiences to care about themselves, their neighbours and the planet.

Bobs & LoLo grew up together on Vancouver Island. Robyn Hardy (Bobs) and Lorraine Pond (LoLo) have always shared a love of the natural world and a passion for working with children. Creating the dynamic duo Bobs & LoLo has allowed them to combine their diverse academic backgrounds with a mutual love

of teaching and the creative arts.

This award-winning duo has been critically acclaimed for their music and programming from the music industry, educators and parents alike.

Since making their 2003 debut as Bobs & LoLo, they have been capturing the hearts and minds of children, parents and educators throughout North America.

Now familiar faces as the dynamic, singing duo regularly featured on­Treehouse TV, Bobs & LoLo deliver action packed, musical adventures both on and offscreen. Acclaimed for their energetic and interactive live performances, Bobs & LoLo

are sure to have young audiences on their feet, singing and dancing along before the first song is done. Featuring award-winning music from their three albums, Bobs & LoLo aim to inspire their young audiences to care about the world around them.

Free popcorn will be given to all attendees for this special performance.

Tickets are available online at www.baileytheatre. com/tickets, at the Bailey Box Office 5041-50 Street from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. and 3 to 5 p.m. or by phoning 780-672-5510.

CAFCL felt community love at charity auction

By Dan Jensen

Camrose Association for Community Living felt the love of the community at its annual charity auction on Oct. 15.

“The support of the community for our association continues to astound me,” said CAFCL CEO Esther McDonald. “It’s impressive to see how people reach out and dig deep to help others.”

The event was able to raise more than $75,000 for valuable services designed by CAFCL to help people develop their skills and build quality of life.

Items sold by auctioneer Ron Pederson included a dress, hair styling, makeup and photo shoot package for a TIPS program graduate courtesy of Tish’s Fashions and Fineries, Bailey Hautzinger, Daybreak Creations Photography and Kristina Callicott, an adventure and food package for 10 children courtesy of The Clubhouse Virtual Golf, Cute and Classy Cakes and the Augustana Climbing Wall, the services of the Camrose Kodiaks, NFL and NHL tickets donated by Tim and Kirk Laird, an all leather recliner donated

by Konto Furniture and Sofa Land, a Toronto Blue Jays get-away donated by the CAFCL board of directors and Marlin Travel, a princess package donated

by Blue Mango Hair and Makeup, Cute and Classy

Cakes and Lou Belle Photography, a framed and signed Mike Bossy New York Islanders jersey donated by Nathan and Mindy Felgate from GEL Inspections, a corporate VIP package for Big Valley Jamboree 2017 donated by Panhandle Productions, an air conditioner with installation donated by EMCO, Hoyme Refrigeration and Amp Contracting, a Sun Chaser get-away donated by Harberg Nikiforuk Wood Chartered Accountants, a piece of art

by CAFCL client Deryk Firkus, and a craft made by children attending the 2016 Kandu Camp.

Silent auction items ranged from Oilers tickets, gift baskets and boys’ and girls’ Lego packages from OPT, to a lawn furniture set, screen door and framed prints.

The emcee for the evening was Brian Hunter, who expressed appreciation on behalf of CAFCL to everyone who attended.

The charity auction’s Around the World theme included foods from Canada, India, Greece, Mexico, United States, Cyprus, Ukraine, France, Ireland and Italy, as well as displays of the Eiffel Tower, Statue of Liberty and Michelangelo’s David.

A special highlight was a video presentation that focused on the courage, vulnerability and strength of Kimberly Beaulieu, who began accepting CAFCL supports in July of 2014

Brian Hunter was master of ceremonies for the CAFCL Charity Auction.

at a time when she was expecting her fourth child and experiencing anxiety and depression. With the assistance of her Parent Child Assistance Program (PCAP) mentor, who ensured she was able to eat and have a place to stay, Kimberly was able to connect with income support, addictions and mental health, doctors and eventually Adventa, and begin a life changing journey. In April, 2016, she and her husband, Alain, moved to a farm in Flagstaff County.

“Kimberly’s positive attitude and willingness to work and improve her and her family’s life has been an inspiration to all who have had the chance to support her,” said CAFCL TIPS/PCAP mentor Kristen Matier.

PCAP is one of CAFCL’s five main preventive programs, along with Teaching Independence and Parent Support (TIPS), Community Kitchen, School Education, and Leaders In Training.

PCAP serves women who are in their child bearing year, abuse drugs or alcohol, are pregnant up to six months post partum and are ineffectively connected to services or to women who have a child diagnosed with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder.

The program assists with drug and alcohol treatment, ensures that children have safe and stable homes, helps to maintain and build healthy relationships and works to prevent future births of alcohol and drug exposed children.

TIPS helps families facing multiple barriers by increasing parenting skills and enhancing child development activities.

The program also assists pregnant moms with prenatal education.

Community Kitchen invites moms from the TIPS and PCAP to gather and make healthy meals to take home. The moms learn about cooking healthy on a budget and meal planning while socializing and gathering relevant information on what is happening in their community.

School Education has individuals receiving services from CAFCL share their stories on brain injury prevention, FASD, shaken baby syndrome, prenatal exposure to drugs, community inclusion, and the importance of treating people with respect.

CAFCL currently operates 11 residences for persons with disabilities.

Leaders In Training helps participants develop skills in communication,

teamwork, communication, community involvement through activities and field trips.

Both TIPS and PCAP offer home visitations, community kitchens, crock pot kitchens, Little Warriors, developmental child care, Women for Sobriety, Support Group for Mom, Health Nurse Group, safety classes, Emotional Coaching Series, and Tri-

ple P (Positive Parenting Practices).

CAFCL’s 103 employees and 88 volunteers serve people with disabilities, people with acquired brain injury, children with special health and developmental concerns and families at risk. The CAFCL vision is that each person is an accepted and participating member of the community.

Deryk Firkus donated a painting for the live auction.

Merry Christmas Fund supports les

By Murray Green

The Camrose Merry Christmas Fund was launched in 1965 to supply food hampers to less fortunate families in the community. Some things have changed through the years, but the need to provide food support hasn’t.

Last year, the Merry Christmas Fund supplied 250 food hampers by raising just under $29,879.

“We already know the ham-

per numbers are over 300 and our target goal is to raise more than $30,000 to cover the cost of the food,” said public relations chair Dale Debnam. “We are hoping people will donate earlier this year because we would like to pay for the food on Dec. 14 when it is delivered. We would like to know if we can pay for the groceries.”

Donations can be made at the Royal Bank and at the

Camrose Fire Department.

The Camrose Merry Christmas Fund is a registered charity, so people will be mailed a tax receipt during the first two weeks in January.

The hampers are delivered to homes on Saturday, Dec. 17, in the morning. If people know they are receiving a hamper, they are asked to be home to receive the hamper to avoid having it sent back. Undelivered

hampers will have to be picked up at the food bank.

“We need volunteer delivery people and we are asking for volunteers to be in pairs to carry the food. We also need people to volunteer for jobs that don’t involve delivering. It is best to call Larry, so we know who is coming to volunteer. We meet at the current Fire Hall starting at 9 a.m. to start delivering hampers,” said Dale.

Dale agreed it is a good outing for families who want to expose their children to a way of getting them into the Christmas spirit and helping others.

The food hampers are intended to provide a good Christmas meal and food for an entire day.

“If people want to have a

hamper delivered to them or a family, they have to register at the Camrose Neighbor Aid Center,” said Dale. The number at the centre is 780-679-3220.

“The community has supported this project for many years and we are thankful for that,” added Dale. “We are looking for the community to come through for us again to make Christmas a little brighter for everyone.”

Volunteers also help deliver toys packaged by the Kinette Club. “Some hampers will also have toys to deliver at the same address. The Kinettes sort and package the toys, the Camrose Swans and Roses Lions Club picks them up and drops them off to us and we send them out with the food hampers,” explained Dale. “If volunteers have a small vehicle we give them hampers without a lot

of toys while those who have larger vehicles can take more.”

Enerplus Corporation and the Camrose branch of the Royal Canadian Legion started the fundraising campaign by donating.

SUPPORTING A CAUSE

Lori Larsen, Camrose Booster The team at Bra Necessities in Camrose raised funds for Breast Cancer Month.

All together they raised $3,548 for the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation. Seated back row, left to right are Laken Simmons, Connie Turre, Sherrie Ellingson, and standing, Whitney d’Entremont. Front row left to right are Kim Turre and Jessica Bernard.

By Lori Larsen

The end of October marked another successful month of giving and spreading awareness about breast cancer and the impact it has on so many peoples’ lives.

“We kicked off breast cancer month a little bit early in September,” said Kim Turre co-owner of Bra Necessities in Camrose. “We did some donation drives in the store for the CIBC Run for the Cure, which was held on Sunday, Oct. 2.”

This year the entire team from Bra Necessities attended the Run for the Cure in Edmonton and were all touched by the power of the event.

“As we took in the event and we all had time to reflect on how breast cancer affects us individually, as a team, a community and as a whole.”

The total funds raised during the Run for the

Cure and in-store drives was $2,552.

Turre also related a story of a client, a breast cancer survivor, who came into the store to talk about her personal journey and offer the team some insight on assisting breast cancer survivors as well as family members with their individual needs for bra fittings.

“Throughout October we partnered with the Camrose Kodiaks and did some donation drives at the games, including the home opener weekend and the end of the month game against Calgary, which included a silent auction,” added Turre.

The total funds raised during the Kodiaks games was $996. The total funds raised was $3,548.

“It’s really amazing to be a part of Camrose, a community that gives back

and supports so much,” remarked Turre.

“I think breast cancer is something that affects everybody. Each person knows somebody, or has a family member of a friend that has gone through it (breast cancer) or is going through it. We are just doing our part to raise the awareness and put the focus on something that affects so many.”

The community of Camrose and surrounding area did their part in rallying together to help support all breast cancer patients in their fight against the disease.

One in eight women are diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime and there has been a 44 per cent decrease in breast cancer deaths since 1986 due to early detection, the numbers speak for themselves, your donations are making a difference.

Annelise, we miss you. We grieve, but not as those who have no hope. Your confidence of forgiveness and everlasting life was firmly placed on Jesus, whom now you see face to face!

One day we will be together again. What a reunion! Until then, we continue down the river of God’s amazing grace.

As Annelise’s family, we would like to thank everyone who shared these months of deep sorrow with us: our immediate family, and our dear friends at Resurrection Church, CLBI, The Lefse House, Augustana, Burgar Funeral Home and throughout the entire Camrose community.

Your presence, prayers, condolences and gifts of love have meant so much to us.

We love you all.

Alex Shihinski Alex was born in Daysland, Alberta on September 12, 1931 to Peter and Tillie Shihinski, the eighth child of nine. Alex passed away peacefully at Bethany Meadows Long Term Care on November 9, 2016 at the age of 85 years.

Alex attended Quarrel School and helped his dad on the farm. In 1956, he took over the family farm and also farmed with his brother-in-law Louie Shott until the time of Louie’s retirement to Camrose.

On July 28, 1962, Alex married Elsie Harmider and to this union two daughters were born, Roxanne and Christine. They continued their married life on the farm north of Daysland until their retirement to Camrose in 1995.

Alex loved the farm life. He had a mixed farming operation – pigs, range cows, milk cows, turkeys and chickens. Chicken butchering day was one of Alex’s favorite days. He loved the help and the company of family and neighbours before he and Elsie made the trip to town to deliver the birds.

Alex was especially proud of how big some of his turkeys would grow and was also proud of his specialty, smoked turkey. After a spring rain, Alex could be found wandering around the pasture picking mushrooms by the pail.

In later years, Alex worked off the farm building quonsets and fences with August Lorenz and Louie Kontek, respectively. Alex and Elise were known to host card parties in the evenings, playing Hola or King Pedro for hours. There was always laughter and a few drinks shared with good company.

Alex adjusted to retired life in Camrose, making new friends and visiting with neighbours. Alex enjoyed a cup of coffee in the mornings with friends at A&W or McDonald’s. There was always a good story to share and a laugh to be had. When you would stop for a visit with Alex and Elsie, you could usually find Alex outside puttering in his yard or garden in which he took such pride. Alex took care of the church grounds and custodial duties for many years, so if he wasn’t in his yard, he could usually be found cutting the grass or cleaning the church. Alex was always willing to help the church ladies roll out the dough on the pyroghie making days.

Alex didn’t have a lot of hobbies, but he loved to fish. Alex and Peter Wynnyk would be up in the early hours of the morning to get on the lake, ice fishing before the sunrise. This way, they could catch the most fish. Alex also loved to spend time with his grandchildren. He always made time to take them to the park, go for a bike ride, play ball, golf or swim. He also enjoyed watching them play ball, hockey, school sports and Ukrainian dance. He was their number one fan.

Alex and Elsie liked their home life, but they would go on the odd bus trip to try their luck in the casinos.

Alex was a very humble, devoted husband, father, grandfather and church member. He helped serve the priest for many years. Alex’s faith was important to him, belonging to the rosary group and attending mass. Alex was very proud of his Ukrainian heritage.

With Alex’s failing health, Bethany Meadows was home for Alex since 2012. He maintained his sense of humor and enjoyed teasing, laughing and visiting with the caregivers, especially the Ukrainian ladies, since they spoke to him in Ukrainian.

Left to mourn and cherish his memory are his wife Elsie of 54 years; daughters Roxanne (Bill); Christine (Reg); grandchildren Karla, Amber, Brett, Tara, Devin and Courtney; brother Bernie (Shirley); sister-in-law Pearl Shihinski; and numerous nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by his parents Peter and Tillie; infant baby; brothers John, Anton (Antionette), Bill and Nick; sisters Kay (Ed Shott), Anne (Merv Simmons), Mary (Louie Shott), Donna Simmons and Theresa Zimmerman.

A prayer service was held on Sunday, November 13, 2016 at 7:00 p.m. at Camrose Ukrainian Catholic Church. A Divine Liturgy was held on Monday, November 14, 2016 at 10:00 a.m. at Camrose Ukrainian Catholic Church.

Donations may be made to Camrose Ukrainian Catholic Church, Bethany Meadows or to the charity of one’s choice.

CCHS inducts four to Wall of Fame

By Murray Green

The Camrose Composite High School has named four new members to the Wall of Fame.

The members will be inducted during a ceremony at the CCHS library on Nov. 18 at 1 p.m. The public is invited to attend the ceremony to be a part of the celebration.

The achievements of the four new members are listed here and were supplied by the CCHS Wall of fame committee.

governance and stewardship at corporate head office in Mississauga, Ontario. He leads the corporation’s development and support of customer order fulfillment and takes senior leadership of Suncor’s performance, business planning and stewardship processes.

Jordan has given generously of his time and skills to the volunteer sector, especially ongoing involvement with the University of Alberta Alumni Association and the United Way. He enjoys golf, travel and cheering the Edmonton Oilers, a task that may become easier with recent developments in the franchise.

Jordan currently lives in Oakville, Ontario with his supportive wife Laura and their adorable son Cooper.

Jordan Blatz

Jordan was born and raised in Camrose. After graduating from CCHS in 2000, he enrolled in the University of Alberta, where he earned a Bachelor of Commerce with Distinction in 2005.

He was more than a top student. Jordan was involved in student politics while an undergraduate and was elected president of the U of A Student Union in 2004. He capably represented more than 30,000 students to the university, government and media. The skills he gained leading and directing an organization with a $10,000,000 budget and operating a number of businesses and services has served him well in his subsequent career with Petro Canada and its successor Suncor Energy.

During the course of his career in the energy sector, he added a second degree, a Master of Business Administration at Toronto’s York University Schulich School of Business. It is not surprising this degree was also awarded with distinction. Jordan has always set and met high personal standards in all he does.

His career began immediately following graduation with work on applying a proprietary business system to Petro Canada retail sites across western Canada. An impressive career trajectory has followed. Jordan’s finely developed business and people management skills led him to a series of successively responsible positions in Alberta and Ontario with Suncor. He progressed from team member to sales representative to sales management in the company, filling such roles as the company’s direct sales account manager, retail business manager, and senior sales coordinator.

Since 2014, Jordan has served as Suncor’s manager,

Michael Lohner

After his 1989 graduation from CCHS, Michael was awarded his Bachelor of Commerce by the University of Alberta in 1993. Subsequently, he completed his Master of Business Administration from Queen’s University in 2006.

To say Michael has been politically active is to understate. He has been heavily involved in both federal and provincial politics for more than two decades as volunteer, campaign management, provincial executive member, strategist and staff.

While a student at the U of A, Michael led the student Progressive Conservatives and was a youth representative on provincial and national executives. He was also a tireless worker in reestablishing the university’s model parliament.

From 1998 to 2001, Michael served as executive assistant to Alberta provincial cabinet ministers in three portfolios: infastructure, environmental protection, and agriculture, food and rural development.

For more than 20 years, there have been few political events in this province that have not had Michael’s influence as campaign strategist behind the scenes. He served as the Progressive Conservative Northern Alberta campaign manager for the 2015 provincial election, managed the “get out the vote” initiative for the 2012 campaign, manager of operations and organization for Gary Mar’s 2011 leadership campaign and was a war room participant in the 2008 provin-

cial election. Since 1993, he has also managed a number of federal and provincial candidates’ campaigns.

Additionally, he chaired the organizing committee for the 2002 national Progressive Conservative convention in Edmonton.

Federal and provincial politicians frequently seek Michael’s private counsel and he remains a familiar guest on Alberta media.

In 2001, Michael left the public service to join Johnson and Johnson’s parent company JohnsonOrtho.

Under his direction, the company steadily grew revenues through accessing innovative medicine and strategic corporate activities.

Michael founded his own consulting firm in 2008.

Shortly thereafter, he partnered with Hal Danchilla to form the Canadian Strategy Group. CSG has become the preeminent Western Canadian government relations firm, and is active across the prairies, in British Columbia, Ottawa and Washington, D.C. Its staff includes former provincial and federal cabinet ministers and the retired leader of a national labor organization.

Michael enjoys running and has competed in several half marathons. His volunteer activities include fundraising and leadership with the Kids Help Line.

Michael and Tracie live in Edmonton. They have one daughter.

ies in Chicago, Phoenix and Washington D.C. Yvonne is currently in the late stages of her Ph.D studies, also at Pacifica. She has completed the required coursework, and anticipates the submission of her dissertation in the 2017.

Entitled Dialogue with Our Teenage Selves: A Narrative Inquiry Study of Adult Women Survivors of Teenage Suicide Attempt, her research addresses a topic that is both troubling and timeless.

Her recent work is well received by an international community of influential Jungian scholars and therapists. That work builds on earlier contributions to the fields of suicide and family violence intervention, school and dating violence prevention, healthy relationships, and cooperative learning in mathematics.

Yvonne’s passion for teaching and learning extends beyond her professional and into her personal life. She began figure skating in her youth in Camrose, and has continued as an active participant in the sport, sharing that passion with her children. Yvonne is a director of the Lynchburg, Virginia Figure Skating Club and is a long term volunteer with the club. Her athletes have won gold at the Ice Skating Institute’s national competitions. She is both a nationally recognized professional skating coach, and a gold certified judge in the sport.

Yvonne Nelson-Reid is the busy mother of five. She lives in Forest, Virginia.

Yvonne Nelson-Reid

Since her graduation from CCHS in 1984, Yvonne Nelson-Reid has demonstrated exemplary qualities in both personal and professional life.

She earned her Bachelor of Education degree from the University of Alberta, and began teaching junior high school mathematics and computer classes in Calgary.

Highly regarded by the school community as an educator, Yvonne enrolled in the University of Calgary’s Master of Arts program specializing in Jungian Theory, completing her thesis in 1999.

She added a second MA in 2014, this time from California’s Pacifica Graduate Institute, where she explored Jungian and Archetypal Theory in greater depth.

Yvonne’s scholarly work has been published in national and international journals and she was invited to present papers to academic bod-

Bill Bragg

Bill was born in Ponoka and raised in Lousana, east of Red Deer. His father was an elevator agent and local farmers always dropped in to do business or simply to visit.

It is no surprise the young Bill soon developed into a friendly extrovert and teachers commented on his highly developed social skills. Such comments were not always votes of approval.

After nine years of school in Lousana, he attended high school in Delburne, where he continued to be active in sports, especially football.

After graduation Bill took his first two years of arts program at Red Deer College, where he was elected Arts faculty student president and curled, bowled and played football.

He subsequently transferred

to the University of Alberta, where he graduated with a BA in Political Science and a Diploma in Education.

More important, he became a husband and father during his time in Edmonton.

Maureen and Bill got their first teaching jobs in Castor and Coronation respectively.

For five years, Bill taught a range of subjects including drama, outdoor education and social studies. Full of energy and enthusiasm, Bill was student union advisor and coached a number of teams, including a provincial curling champion. He also organized a two week student trip to Britain, where he learned just how little sleep he needed to function.

In A Tale of Two Cities, Charles Dickens wrote “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times.” For Bill, 1981 was such a year. He applied for and was offered a position teaching high school mostly social studies at CCHS. The job was especially appealing as he would teach his specialty and would allow him to coach football. However, the joy of the move was mitigated by the untimely passing of his beloved mother Elsie of an aneurism at the age of 57.

Bill loved coaching football at CCHS. Coaching entailed recruiting players, early morning and after school practices, distributing and collecting equipment, driving the bus to and from away games, and fundraising. He firmly believed that team sport taught important life lessons such as discipline, cooperation, responsibility, and dealing with both success and disappointment. As a collateral benefit, many former players remain friends with each other and with their former coach. Always the competitor, Bill also coached curling and Reach for the Top teams.

Bill’s main teaching assignment was social studies for Grades 9 to 12. A keen follower of politics and history, Bill enhanced the mandated Program of Studies with topical discussions, assignments, and quizzes. He kept abreast Alberta Education’s expectations for Grade 12 students by marking diploma exams in June and January, and prepared his students for those exams by frequent and thoughtful essay assignments that demanded long hours of out of school grading. His tactics worked, as Bill’s students normally surpassed provincial average achievement.

Bill and Maureen live in Camrose. They have two adult children and three grandchildren.

CNN won’t have to worry for two weeks. It will take a solid couple of weeks of a around-the-clock coverage for their “experts” to explain what the losing candidate said or did wrong. Probably throw in another week for all of the “I told you so” commentary from politicians and talk show hosts.

All new Cruze hatch

Styled to stand out

Christina McLeod Sales Consultant

By Murray Green

The snappy 2017 Chevy Cruze at McClellan Wheaton Chevrolet Buick GMC offers all you want in technology, efficiency and safety.

Sure, the all-new Cruze has the responsible features you need every day. But it’s also the car you actually want to drive because it’s got style, and so do you. So whether you’re running to the ball diamond, soccer pitch or the hockey arena, this is the best vehicle to get there.

“Whether you’re zipping around city streets or navigating winding roads, the all-new 2017 Cruze Hatch is made to work hard for you.

With a unique combination of entertainment technology, remarkable efficiency and available advanced safety features, this sporty compact hatchback helps you get where you’re going without missing a beat,” said sales consultant Christina McLeod.

Cruze is all new and ready to make a statement with you behind the wheel. The new design features aerodynamic sculpting for a noticeably sportier appearance and the available projector-beam headlamps with signature LED daytime running lamps leave a lasting impression.

“The back row of the allnew 2017 Cruze Hatch offers 60/40 split-folding seatbacks, giving you more space for whatever fuels your passions,” added McLeod.

It’s like being in your home away from home. This compact car offers a host of premium comforts like available leather-appointed heated front and rear seats and an available heated steering wheel. You can also expect a quiet ride with the standard acoustical laminated windshield that’s specially designed to help keep your drive as peaceful as possible.

Technology

“Entertaining technology centres around you.

This compact car has plenty of ways to stay entertained including standard Chevrolet

My L i n k with a 178 mm (seven inch) diagonal touchscreen, available advanced phone integration and standard built-in 4G LTE hotspot with available Wi-Fi connection,” said sales consultant Christina McLeod. “Everything is at your fingertips.

Cruze offers support for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. This intuitive technology lets you interact with your maps, your texts, your music using voice commands or the MyLink touch-screen display in your car. It’s smart, convenient and helps you keep your eyes where they belong — on

the road.”

One touch of a button starts the engine so you’ll be on your way in a snap. Available wireless charging helps keep your cell phone powered up and ready to go.

Efficiency

The all-new standard 1.4L turbo engine (with start-stop feature with the six speed automatic transmission) offers a balance of efficiency and power, so you can go the extra kilometre and hug every corner along the way.

It almost imperceptibly shuts off and starts up the engine in certain conditions, helping to save gas and improve efficiency.

Cruze offers the combination of technology and efficiency. The 1.4L turbo engine delivers 153 horsepower and likes to avoid the gas pump.

It is rated at between 5.6 and 5.9 litres for every 100 kilometres on the highway.

“The sporty wheels ranging from 15 to 18 inches in steel or aluminum gives you the feel of a sports car without the high price tag,” said McLeod.

Safety first

Christina McLeod Sales Consultant

Available Rear Cross Traffic Alert uses radar sensors to monitor traffic behind and to the sides of you, and visually warns you of those vehicles using the available rear vision camera.

Available Lane Keep

A ssist uses sensors to warn you if you unintentionally drift from your lane and gently helps you steer the vehicle back into the lane if you don’t take action.

Available all-new Forward Collision Alert helps you to stay safe with two warnings, a Tailgating Alert to let you know if you’re following another vehicle too closely, and a Crash Imminent Alert to signal when you’re approaching a vehicle too quickly, so you can take action.

Cruze was the first car in its class to have 10 standard airbags. Side-impact and knee airbags help protect you and your front passenger.

A high-strength steel safety cage provides impressive protection in the event of an impact.

With available Automatic Crash Response, builtin sensors can automatically alert an OnStar Advisor if your airbags deploy. The Advisor, who is connected to your Cruze, can then see if you need help and contact emergency services.

Whether you’re zipping around city streets or navigating winding roads, the versatile all-new 2017 Cruze Hatch shares your affinity for adventure.

See the 2017 Chevy Cruze at McClellan Wheaton Chevrolet Buick GMC at 3850-48 Avenue, Camrose. Phone 780672-2355 and ask for one of the friendly sales professionals.

Government budget cuts have affected the Alberta 55 plus Winter and Summer Games into 2017.

The government announced they were eliminating the funding for the Winter Games and funding only “active activities” for the Summer Games. Some of the active activities were incorporated in the Summer Games.

The Alberta 55 Plus provincial board then stepped up and decided to host the non-active and cultural activities in a new format. Each zone will host a short set of activities in either the Fall Games or Spring Games, thus smaller communities can accommodate the participants.

Activities included in the new Summer Games will be athletics, badminton, cycling, darts, 5-pin bowling, golf, horseshoes, ice hockey, ice curling, slo-pitch, swimming, tennis, bocce and pickleball. The Spring Games

will include contract bridge, cribbage, floor curling, 8-ball pool, table shuffleboard and crafts. The Fall Games will include duplicate bridge, carpet bowling, euchre, floor shuffleboard, military whist, snooker, scrabble, arts and creative writing.

All these games have gone from mostly government funded games to user pay. There is no longer transportation and accommodation provided at a nominal cost. We were delighted when the City of Drumheller and Zone 2 announced they would host the first Fall Games in September 2016.

They decided to include pickleball in their games as they had the facility to do so and it is a very popular game in the province. Zone playoffs are required as only a limited number from each zone can attend. Camrose and district was fortunate to produce several medal winners.

Sahakarini supports schooling for girls

The Camrose chapter of Sahakarini is assisting southern India with a Children’s College Soumya for tribal children wanting to finish school, go on to college, or receive vocational training.

Dr. Siddhartha

Dr. Siddhartha, the director of Pipal Tree Children’s College, writer, journalist and social activist spoke at the Loaves and Fishes Dinner to inform people about the situation in south India.

“I’ve been working with tribal people who are being forced out of the forests. With Sahakarini we have set up a home for girls from the forest that otherwise wouldn’t be able to go to school,” explained Dr. Siddhartha.

“They have a home with a government school nearby.

These girls, if they didn’t have this school, would end up illiterate and working here and there. The tribal people are going through a difficult period because the culture has been broken up and the sense of self-esteem is very low.”

The government didn’t help matters when they built a large dam and forced people to move from their homes.

“People were evicted and promised land, but it was never given to them. There are still about 20,000 people that live in the forest. They are very poor people who eke out a living,” added the guest speaker. “This program with the girls is very important because they are often neglected.

For them to be able to finish school means a lot.

Perhaps they could learn to run a computer and find secretarial work, or learn how to make garments and tailoring. Some can go on to college.”

Dr. Siddhartha wants them to remain connected

Life is better in the Quick Lane.TM to their community, even if they have to work or live further away. “Those with leadership skills can lobby the government.

Tribals are a minority, so government tends to forget about them, or consider them not as important as far as voting is concerned. The schools help maintain their culture, so the girls can carry it with them.”

He praised Camrose for their global solidarity.

“I never thought Camrose would be connected to the forests in India. When I

get back the children will be excited to know that I have talked about them and shown pictures of them,” said Dr. Siddhartha. “They made crafts to be sold at the auction here. I think the sympathy and concern is very fulfilling. The money also plays a role in helping the people.”

The funds are used for extra programs and building homes. The government has provided the school because they have no school in the forest.

“They have school and

now we help with additional cultural based learning to help them improve their skills.”

University of Alberta students, including Augustana, have gone to India to help at the school and learning centre.

The Indian government declared large tracts of forest as wildlife parks and thereby displacing these indigenous people and forcing them into a life of poverty of self-worth, and poverty brought about by lack of modern skills

which have resulted in near destitution for many.

Started in 2011, Children’s College has helped 15 Adivasi boys to complete their high school education. There are currently 22 children (20 girls and two boys) in the Children’s College, all with the desire to attain high school degrees and become tribal leaders with personal depth and imbued with social and ecological awareness.

By Lori Larsen Airport hangar lot lease rates will increase by five per cent for 2017 and another five per cent for 2018 after a recommendation by city administration to increase the rates was presented and accepted by city council during the Nov. 7 regular council meeting.

The lease rates factored out to $1.580 per square metre for 2017 and $1.659 per square metre for 2018.

City of Camrose director of engineering Jeremy Enarson began by presenting the increase for the 2017 rates, but after discussion around the fact that the city has changed to a two-year budget cycle, council voted to include in the motion a five per cent increase for the 2018 hangar lease rates as well.

Canadian Hall of Fame curler and now China curling coach Millard Evans brought four mixed doubles teams in to gain experience against top notch local curlers at the Rose City Curling Club in conjunction with a training stay in Canada this fall.

The Chinese teams were not only facing local curlers, they are preparing for the World Championships in Lethbridge next April.

Chinese curlers welcomed the trip to Camrose.

“It’s a really good opportunity to play anybody who’s not Chinese to see how they play and what strategy they use,” said coach Evans. “Just playing on dif-

ferent ice surfaces helps.

Particularly when you’re young, the more different buildings and the more different ice you experience, it really challenges you.”

Curling against former Olympian Adam Enright and his wife Stephanie was the challenge the Chinese curlers were looking for.

“I matched them against a very good young pair.

It is a good challenge for them. I was Adam’s coach about eight years ago,” informed Evans. “I curled against his dad as well. I also curled against Terry Soch (who curled against another Chinese team) in the 90s when he was on a very good team in Edmonton.”

Curling promoter Ken Duggan knew that Evans

Chinese curlers learn from local mixed doubles players was a skilled player and coach from Edmonton because of his three world senior men’s championship winning teams as a lead.

Duggan, along with Terry Morris, convinced Evans to coach Chinese curlers and further develop a partnership between China and Alberta. Evans first gained coaching skills by guiding the Danish national women’s team.

“I worked with them starting in 2008 and in 2011 the team was invited to curl in China and that was my first experience going to China,” recalled Evans. “We won the event and the Chinese were then eager to learn from us. Both Duggan and Norris were at the same event.”

Mixed doubles curling is gaining momentum since it is now included as a 2018 Olympic event.

Coaches with vast knowledge in the mixed doubles and solid coaching strategies became very valuable after the decision.

The Chinese wanted to get a jump on some coun-

tries and turned to Canada to receive coaching help.

Evans has used a translator when available and hand gestures when he is left on his own to coach.

“We use certain vocabulary that I think they’ve picked up,” he said. “It’s still not a given, but it’s fun. It gets easier as you go.”

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.

Murray Green, Camrose Booster The CCHS senior boys finished pool play in first place after beating Wetaskiwin, St. Paul and Barrhead. This set up a quarter final match against Peace Wapiti from Grande Prairie, which the Trojan boys lost in three sets. The senior girls finished pool play in fourth place, setting up a quarter final match against the eventual tournament winner St. Joe’s from Grande Prairie. Both teams look to build off of the competitive matches and bring that momentum into league playoffs and provincials, which are in Camrose on Nov. 24 to 26.

Kodiaks shut out

By Murray Green

The Calgary Canucks did something no other team has done this season. They held the Camrose Kodiaks off the scoresheet.

Calgary blanked the Kodiaks 4-0 in an even game, except on the scoreboard.

Goalie Patrick Gora kept the Kodiaks in the game early and stopped 22 of 26 shots in the contest. Camrose fired 25 at the Canucks.

Camrose fired up the offence against the Calgary Mustangs to win 5-2 on Nov. 5. Ryan Hartman started the scoring and the opening period ended tied 1-1. In the second frame, Joe Tambasco and Jacob Kendall give back the lead to the Kodiaks.

Bryson Traptow and T. J. Brown added insurance markers in the third period.

Gora turned away 31 of 33 shots for the Kodiaks.

Camrose peppered 49 shots on Calgary.

Sherwood Park outscored Camrose 9-7 in a wild game in the Harvest Hockey Hookey match.

Kyler Kupka and Traptow led the Camrose offence with two goals each. Single markers came from Hartman, Mackenzie Bauer and Branden Voss.

Gora stopped 23 of 29 shots before giving way to Joey May who turned away three of five between the pipes. Camrose directed 42 shots at the Sherwood Park cage.

The Kodiaks return for a home game on Nov. 22 to take on the Okotoks Oilers.

Tentrees ready to paint the road

By Murray Green

Si n ger - son g w r it er s Gordie Tentrees and Jaxon Haldane have been busy hitting the road this fall as they record a new CD called Road Paint.

The dynamic folk and roots duo are recording a live album throughout 15 dates as they tour western Canada that includes the Bailey Theatre on Nov. 19 at 8 p.m.

This show is part of the Rose City Roots Music Society series in celebration of its 10th year of providing quality acts to venues in Camrose.

Yukon road warrior Gordie Tentrees and Manitoba alchemist Jaxon Haldane hit Western Canada to record Road Paint, a new album that will be recorded live at select venues with Alberta-based engineer Scott Franchuk (Corb Lund, The Swiftys) and featuring co-writes with Haldane/Tentrees (Armand, Lester, Junior) and Fred Eaglesmith/Tentrees (Craft Beards and Man Buns). After two years of performing in Europe, UK, and Australia they return home for 15 concert dates featuring nine instruments, brotherly harmonies and masterful storytelling.

Tentrees is a Yukonbased, Ontario raised farm boy, golden glove boxer, school teacher and youth counsellor turned folk artist. Fresh off his 200-date world tour of Europe, Australia, UK and Ireland, Tentrees was a feature performance at Celtic Connections (Glasgow, Scotland), and National Folk Festival in Canberra, Australia. His recent recording, Less Is More, was the top 10 record and artist from North America (April/May 2016) on the Folk/Roots radio International charts.

Haldane (former front man of the punk/bluegrass band The D Rangers) reveres tradition, while retaining a distinct modernism. His ability to combine the visceral intensity of punk rock or Dixieland, with the soulstirring emotion of vintage country and blues is emboldened by his songwriting.

Tickets are available online at www.baileytheatre. com/tickets, at the Bailey Box Office 5041-50 Street from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. and 3 to 5 p.m. or by phoning 780672-5510.

The CAMROSE BOOSTER, November 15, 2016 – Page 39

Plugging into People Power The alarm goes off, your feet hit the floor, and you flip the bathroom switch. You walk through the hallway into the kitchen, and turn on the lights. After filling the coffee pot or kettle, you plug it in, push start, and a few minutes later you have your morning brew. You grab the remote and turn on the morning news, while you unplug your phone charger. How many times a day do you use electricity?

In the first few minutes of your day you flip on, plug in, turn on, and unplug from electricity without giving it a second thought. Apart from the click of a switch, the voice of an announcer on TV, or the noise of the appliances– electricity just quietly does its job.

These days electricity travels quietly from pole to pole through lines strung across rural Alberta. Thirty-two Rural Electrification Associations (REA) distribute electricity across hundreds of kilometres of line to over 41,000 members. Those REAs are part of a larger cooperative movement in Canada dating back to the 1840s that now includes over 9,000 co-ops in nearly every business sector imaginable.

When a co-op of any kind forms, it is exciting and people are involved. But, over time, it all becomes routine, similar to flipping on the light switch. There are the annual meetings with dry financials and bylaws to vote on. Years pass, the excitement wanes, and people go back to their busy lives. Alberta REAs have gone through the same ups and downs, but the REA distribution system has quietly hummed along providing reliable and cost effective power to rural residents.

Amidst that quiet reliability we noticed a worrisome trend. Some REA members don’t know they are members. Others may be aware they are members, but they have no idea what the value is apart from being able to turn on lights and appliances at will.

We want to reverse that trend and you can help.

Check your power bill and see if your power is distributed by an REA. If it is, call your REA to validate your member information. Add the next Annual General Meeting to your calendar and plan to attend. Contact the director who is elected to represent your area. Get involved with keeping a locally owned business viable in your community.

As you approach this great family bungalow you are bound to be impressed by the beautiful mature neighbourhood. Located close to parks and schools, this completely finished bungalow is not only family friendly, but budget friendly as well.

With a total of four bedrooms and ample living space, this home has enough room to accommodate the entire family.

The interior of the home includes wonderful upgraded laminate, carpet and linoleum flooring is brightly painted and boasts an open floor plan.

The living room features a cozy fireplace, an ideal place to cuddle up in front of on cooler nights and which also provides a beautiful feature for decorating.

The sunny country kitchen has plenty of cabinet space and a pantry for extra storage and adjacent to it is a large dining area.

Completing the main floor is the master suite with its own two-piece en suite, two other bedrooms and a four piece main bathroom.

The finished basement adds another whole level of living space including a large family room and games room where there

is plenty of room to house either a home gym or a ping-pong table, great for family get-togethers.

The basement also has a fourth bedroom and two-piece bathroom which would be perfect for overnight guests or that older child that craves a little privacy and plenty of storage including some built in shelving.

The backyard is partially fenced and is lined with large mature trees for added privacy. There is also a concrete patio area which provides an ideal place to barbecue or entertain. The large double detached garage is a priceless commodity, as those blustery winter days approach.

International curling Continued from page 32

“When I go back to China in January, it will likely be for three weeks.

Then I go back in February and March when they have a playoff to determine who goes to the world championships. We return to Alberta and train with them to prepare for the worlds,” explained Evans.

Mixed doubles is a different game then the regular sport. “Most Canadian

coaches would agree that there are certain ways that you just do not sweep,” said Evans. “You never want a slider on the back foot, which you’re trying to push your way down the ice. In mixed doubles, you can sweep your own stone.”

China is taking curling seriously and learning from Canadians in order to complete at a high level in the future is the goal.
