FOUNDERS

“We took our three kids on a family road trip, travelling 3,300 km to the west coast of Vancouver Island. We travelled through Vancouver and Victoria visiting family before heading to Ucluelet for some time at and on the ocean. We had an ocean front cabin which allowed us quick access to the beach and views of amazing sunsets. We spent many hours walking the beaches and trails, finding ‘treasures,’ watching the waves, learning the history of the area and just enjoying the time together. We took a whale watching trip out of Tofino which took us down to the Long Beach area of Pacific Rim National Park. We saw grey whales surfacing and spouting, sea lions, sea otters and seals while on the boat. It was a great day! Unfortunately, we lost our Booster paper after the whale shot! Oops! This is one of our favourite places to visit and explore.” – Kim and Rob Kienitz, along with Jessica, Layne and Katelyn. Our thanks to Kim Kienitz. Your $20.00 cheque is in the mail! Do you enjoy reading The Camrose Booster? Show us with a picture! Drop off, mail or email a photo of you reading your Booster while vacationing, along with a brief explanation. Be sure your travel destination can be identified by a sign or landmark. Or, have someone take your photo while you’re enjoying the home team paper in an unlikely situation. Throughout the year, these photos will be published in The Camrose Booster.

Letters to the Editor Who can you trust?

Are you trustworthy? What do these events have in common? Last weekend, my sister and brother-in-law celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary. On June 7, The Washington Capitals won the Stanley Cup. On June 1 to 3, Camrose’s 61st Jaywalkers Jamboree filled Main Street with pedestrians enjoying outdoor shopping, food and entertainment. On May 5, National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) launched InSight, a robotic lander manufactured by Lockheed Martin Space Systems. The lander is expected to arrive on Mars in November, where it will study the internal structure of Mars. In April, the choirs of Augustana Campus and Chorale St. Jean, with the Requiem Orchestra–about 180 musicians–performed Requiem for the Living in Edmonton and Camrose. Hint: You’re reading this column in The Camrose Booster, the Home Team paper. ***

What all these events have in common is that they required teamwork: people working together to get something done. Whether it’s family or community, business or government, sports or science, the arts or technology, it takes teams. While each of us is responsible for individual accomplishments, the more skillful we are at working with others, the better the odds that we can accomplish what we set out to do–serving one family, serving an organization or serving the world. ***

This brings me to Google. For five or six years, recognizing the profit value of effective teams, Google has been researching what makes a team successful. They code-named the study “Project Aristotle,” after Aristotle’s quote, “The whole is greater than the sum of its parts.” The researchers found that what really mattered was not so much who is on the team, but how the team worked together. So what was the most important factor contributing to a team’s effectiveness? The researchers called it “psychological safety.” In a team with high psychological safety, teammates feel safe to take risks around their team members. They feel confident that no one on the team will embarrass or punish anyone else for admitting a mistake, asking a question, or offering a new idea. In other words, great teams thrive on trust. The thing about trust is, it has to be earned. It’s personal. You can’t buy trust with money or force trust with power. Trust is built over time but can be destroyed in seconds. Those of us who are fortunate have people in our lives that we trust totally–we’d trust them with our messes, our money, our secrets, our spouse, our lives. We can count on them to have our back. Do we need that depth of trust to work well together? No.

Letters are welcomed but please limit them to 400 words or less and sign with first name, initial, surname, address and phone number; only name of writer and city or town will be printed. Letters to third parties are not accepted. The Camrose Booster may edit for clarity, legality, personal abuse, good taste, public interest and availability of space. The Camrose Booster thanks you for your interest in the letters page and encourages your comments. Move on

If I hired a professional writer, I couldn’t have expressed my thoughts any better than Bill Mattinson’s recent article “Little Knowledge.” Has it become a national sport to protest anything and everything– climate change, pipelines, G-7, oil sands, provincial rights, Whales, Parades, etc.? Still to come– “Volcanic Eruption” protest marches. To the national news media–stop covering, with such repetitive intensity, these few hundred protestors and their perceived moral journey–we don’t care. Us 36,000,000 other Canadians, patriotic and proud, focus on more meaningful issues: roof over our heads, caring for others less fortunate, staying employed and healthy, adjusting to rising food, gasoline and property tax costs, fall harvests, animal care and safety, recovery from personal or relat-

ed (i.e. Humbolt) tragic losses, etc. While they could have been born in any bankrupt, diseased or war-torn place on earth, fate rewarded these protestors with prosperity, freedom and health in Canada. Now earn it. Look in a mirror. Appreciate your good fortune, then start crying, and keep crying until you realize that your divisive protest rants are a conflicting embarrassment to yourself and to your country. Otherwise do the right thing and take your ideology, that you so believe in, to Iraq, Syria or Sudan and protest where there are real injustices and be sure to let us know how you made out. Meanwhile, in your absence, the rest of us will assume our duty to keep Canada United, Strong and Free of internal factions with Little Knowledge, but willing to sell out their loyalty for 10 seconds of fame. Neil Leeson, Camrose Pipeline announcement

The pipeline announcement article paints the sunshine picture of the Trans Mountain project that the federal Liberals and Alberta NDP want us to believe, but it’s a long way from the truth. I’m saddened to see $4.5 billion that we don’t have being sent to Houston. We didn’t need to buy Trans Mountain to get it built because Kinder Morgan has the money to build it: We needed a federal

government that would enforce the laws of Canada and buying Trans Mountain does nothing about that. The federal government disregarding the law is reminiscent of what happened to Gateway and Energy East. When after due process a federal permit is granted, there is an obligation on the part of the government granting it to enforce it. Otherwise the permit is a sham. I’m not a fan of Trudeau the father, but when there was civil disobedience, he said, “Just watch me” and he enforced the laws of the land. If there are no laws, there is no country. What will happen now is that the project will sink into the legal quagmire with endless court actions between governments, special interest groups, and indigenous groups and all will be endlessly funded with our money. With the problems that Ontario and Quebec are having with US trade, there are already rumours that the federal government is looking at how to back out from the purchase. The politicians are all just playing for time and they hope that they can keep this from sticking to them until they win the next election. I’m happy to clarify any of my points. Tony Hladun, Camrose

***

Maralyn Turner researched what builds trust in organizations and came up with the concept of “Operational Trust” the degree of trust you need to be able to work well together. She identified five factors that create Operational Trust. In order of importance, the five factors are…competence–the technical and interpersonal skills required to get your specific job done well. “Technical” meant, “Can I trust you to be good at your part of the job?” “Interpersonal” meant, “Can I trust you not to alienate people whose good we will need?” Integrity – honesty and truthfulness. “Can I trust what you say or report to be true? Can I trust you with confidential matters; with technical or financial access?” Consistency–reliability, predictability and good judgment. “Can I trust you to keep your promises, meet deadlines and make good decisions?” Respect (loyalty)–protecting the dignity of others; doing no harm. “Can I trust you to have my best interest, and the best interest of our organization, at the front of your mind?” Openness–freely sharing ideas and information. “Can I trust you to share what you know, what you think and what you feel?” There you have it. Five trust-building qualities that contribute to successful marriages, community enrichment, landings on Mars, profitable businesses and fulfilling lives. All are qualities within our power to be and do. I trust this is useful! ***

We all know seniors are a vital part of our communities as parents and grandparents, mentors and friends, employers and employees, and they make a difference in our daily lives. We celebrated Seniors’ Week June 3 to 9 and it was a great opportunity to recognize the contributions of the people who helped build this beautiful and diverse province. Alberta seniors are actively engaged in our communities. According to the most recent statistics, almost 20 per cent of Albertans over the age of 65 are active in the workforce and nearly half of seniors aged 65 to 74 volunteer. Seniors contribute so much to the lives of their families, friends and neighbours. Our government is helping them age in their communities close to their loved ones. The latest numbers show more than 90 per cent of seniors live in their own homes. That means the supports and services government has put in place to help seniors stay in their communities are working. Our government continues to work hard to make life better for the seniors of today and tomorrow by investing in programs and services that address their changing needs. Each year, we provide close to $3 billion in services and supports for seniors. In Budget 2018, we protected the Alberta Seniors Benefit program, which provided financial assistance to more than 150,000 seniors with low income last year. Our government also added more than 1,000 continuing-care spaces and expanded home care and community care services across Alberta. Wetaskiwin’s long-term care facility opens this year. Seniors across the province have used the Seniors Home Adaptation and Repair Program to make needed repairs or updates to remain at home. Seniors can also defer their property taxes to help them remain in their homes. They are protected in the workplace by new legislation that prohibits discrimination based on age through the Alberta Human Rights Act. Our government is building and renovating seniors’ lodges and apartments throughout Alberta. For example, over $300,000 is going to the Winfield seniors’ lodge for renovations. Here are just a few more examples of our government’s work supporting seniors: committed a historic $1.2 billion toward affordable housing for seniors and families with low income; helped rural communities develop transportation options for seniors and invested in pilot projects that will keep seniors connected to their communities; granted $3.6 million to coordinate community-led efforts to prevent and address elder abuse; hosted regular Minister’s Seniors Advisory Forums to listen to seniors and seniors’ serving organizations; provided Mental Health First Aid for Seniors training for staff, caregivers and seniors across the province; extended Compassionate Care leave to 27 weeks from the previous eight weeks. Another Bill #7: Supporting Alberta’s Local Food Sector Act has passed. This Bill will create a Local Food Council, which will be tasked with addressing barriers to growth and sustainability within the local food sector, will establish Local Food Week in advance of Open Farm Days in August. Thank you, David Elliot, for collecting the following fact about taxation and how families actually benefit from paying taxes. David disputes the Canadian Tax Federations date of their Net Tax Freedom Day; David shows it is actually Jan. 1 and not in June. The infamous Fraser Institute says the average Canadian family of four makes $83,105 and pays $35,320 in taxes per year. A whopping 42.5 per cent. David disputes this amount, but says even if true most people do not include what the family receives from the government. Alberta Health spends $5,012 per person in 2017. So this family’s share is $5,012 times four equals $20,048. Considering that two of the four children in this family are likely in school. Alberta Education spends $12,351 per student K to 12 for an expenditure of $24,702. This family receives tax benefits of $52,830 in services. Their Net Tax Freedom Day for 2018 was Jan. 1. Welcome our new Constituency assistant in Camrose, Holly Lassesen, and temporary Constituency assistant in Wetaskiwin, Azure Johnson.

Legion celebrates 90th anniversary of serving others By Murray Green

The Camrose branch of the Royal Canadian Legion is celebrating its 90th anniversary as a Royal Canadian Legion Branch in Camrose. An open house on June 23 from 2 to 4 p.m. will be held at the branch. The Legion will be setting up a few displays in the meeting room. People will be able to view items and visit with veterans. “We encourage everyone to come to the Legion and see our facility. Not very many Legion branches have reached 90 years of continuous service and we are one of them, thanks to our dedicated volunteers,” said president Dale Debnam. Comrade Gord Minnes shared some history. In 1918, shortly after the end of the First World War, which was then called The Great War, a few veterans from the Camrose area decided that a veterans’ organization was needed to assist veterans and their families. Many of the men had been wounded or disabled and were unable to work, even if a job could be found. Many widows of returning men were left with no money and very little income to support their families. Adding to these tough conditions was the terrible influenza epidemic that took its toll on lives throughout our country, particularly in Alberta at that time. This small organization banded together with other veterans’ organizations across Canada to form a branch of the Great war veterans’ Association, which was a forerunner of the British Empire Service League and this subsequently became known as the Canadian Legion. By royal decree in 1961, the latter name was changed to the Royal Canadian Legion. Camrose Branch 57 received its charter on April 12, 1928, 85 years ago. Charter members were Theo Bailey, Harold Dowling, Percy East, Bert Holloway, Sam Duvall, Tom Solfleet, Sam Rutherford and several other comrades whose names are not available. The first meetings of the comrades of First World War and several veterans of the Boer War were held wherever space was available. Many were held in the homes of veterans, in the Bailey Theatre and on the second floor of the old Town Hall building, which also housed the Camrose firefighting equipment on ground floor. The first permanent location of the Camrose Legion was on the second floor of a building on Main Street. At that time, there was a vacant lot directly north of this building and the “Legion Hall” as it was called, could only be reached by an outside staircase. During the Second World War, the Legion Hall had many uses, in addition to

the Legion meetings. Legion members often met at the hall after a veteran’s funeral, to toast the deceased. Packages containing cigarettes, canned goods, chocolate, hand-knitted socks, mitts, gloves and scarves were sorted and packed for mailing to local service personnel overseas. From 1939 to 1945, the Legion Hall was also the meeting place of the VVR (veterans’ volunteer reserve), which was active in many wartime activities such as selling victory bonds, collecting scrap iron, which was stored in the old Plunkett and Savage building located in the block directly north of the old skating rink (former Wildrose Arena). The scrap iron was sorted and loaded on flat railway cars and shipped to Edmonton to be melted down and used for war materials. Quite a few Legion members also belonged to the VVR and were very active in working on these projects. One of the main aims of the VVR was to promote patriotism. During the Second World War, there was a very large army training camp in Camrose that housed a complement of 2,000 troops continuously. Camrose Normal School, now the central brick building at Rosehaven (The Bethany Group), was taken over by the Department of National Defence and became the army administration building. Two Camrose First World War veterans, Harold Dowling and R. H. EIIiott, received commissions and

were stationed here during the Second World War . Many army huts used for housing, training, eating, as well as the Drill Hall, were constructed to be used by the army. In 1946, after the end of the Second World War, many of these huts were offered for sale for the sum of $500. There were 24 feet by 120 feet, so were usually cut in half prior to moving by the purchasers. One army hut was also given to the Camrose Legion for $1 by the Department of National Defence. This building was moved by the Martin brothers of Bittern Lake to its present location at 5021-48 Street. It was placed on a cement foundation constructed by Comrades Gordon, Walter and Bob Burrows of Chas. Burrows Construction. Much of the labour involved was supplied by Legion members and their families. This is the building that is now the Masonic Lodge. The building was remodelled mostly by volunteer labour and also had a small bar, which marked the first time that the Camrose Legion was able to offer beer, wine and liquor for sale to members and their guests. Comrade Jack Richardson was the first Legion manager, followed by Comrade Cliff Harris and Comrade Fred Lowther, who was there for the longest time. This building served the needs of the Camrose Legion very well until it became apparent in the early 1960s that more space was required. In 1967, when Comrade Harold Kjelland was

president, the building on 48 Avenue (now housing Pizza Hut) was purchased from IAC (the International Acceptance Corporation) for $64,000. This building had been planned and financed by a number of local businessmen in 1962 to he used as a bowling centre and billiard parlor. Unfortunately, the business failed after several years of ownership and bankruptcy was declared in 1965. When the Camrose Legion purchased the building, considerable work and expense was required. However, Comrades Harold Kjelland and Bob Mills, with the assistance of the City’s John Timinski, designed and prepared blueprints for the renovation. The building was moved into and opened in 1968, the year that Comrade Cliff Guittard was president. It proved to be an excellent facility until the Legion moved to its present location in the old golf course clubhouse. Remembrance Day (formerly called Armistice Day) has been faithfully observed every Nov. 11 by the Camrose Legion since its charter in 1928. The first outdoor portion of the two-part memorial service was held on the grassed, treed boulevard which ran from the intersection of 48 Avenue and 50th Street to the old post office, now the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce. The cenotaph and flagpole were located on the boulevard and this is the spot to which the parade marched. Prior to the Second World War, several hundred Legion members, many

of whom wore their original First World War uniforms, marched in a parade led by the Camrose Boys’ Trumpet Band, whose leader was Comrade Jim Findlater. The Camrose Town Brass Band also took part in the parade, which formed up at the CPR station at the North end of Main Street. Comrade Harold Dowling was the parade marshal for many years before being succeeded by Comrade Tom Coultis. During the Second World War, troops from the army camp also took part in the parade and outdoor service. The parade would then march back to the Bailey Theatre for the second part of the memorial service. The stage was decorated by Comrade Theo Bailey and his wife, Babe, for close to 60 years. As a point of interest, in years gone by, Camrose Branch 57 had the greatest number of Battle of Vimy Ridge veterans per capita in the Dominion of Canada. There were 12 members living at one time from our branch. Some of the names of those veterans were Harold Dowling, Carol Seevers, Theo Bailey, Bill Scheidegger, Frank Jacobs and Joe Maglis. Theo Bailey was the last local survivor of Vimy Ridge and passed away in 1988 at the age of 92. In 1945, a group of four interested and concerned Camrose businessmen formed a committee to raise funds to build a memorial swimming pool in honour of those who lost their lives in the two great wars and those who returned. Its purpose was “For the benefit of the youth in our town and district.” The swimming pool committee, in the space of 12 months, raised $30,000 in donations from business organizations, service clubs and private citizens. The Town of Camrose donated the land needed as a pool site. Construction of the Camrose Memorial Swimming Pool was started in March 1946 by the Calgary firm of Burns and Dutton. Construction was completed during the summer of 1946 and it was officially opened on Aug. 31, 1947. A crowd in excess of 2,000 interested citizens were in attendance. The ceremonies were recorded on four 78 RPM records by the Edmonton radio station CJCA and its announcer, Hal Yerxa. Since then the Camrose Legion Branch 57 and its many distinguished members have carried on the tradition of making the community of Camrose a better place to live.

School resource officer invaluable tool By Lori Larsen

The School Resource Officer (SRO) Program in Camrose provides the fulltime service of a uniformed Camrose Police Service police officer to the 10 current schools within the City of Camrose. The program has been in existence since 1996 and has proven to be an invaluable tool for creating connectivity to all elementary and high-school-aged students with a resource of prevention, education and positive representation of the police service. “The SRO position is outside the police budget so the officer remains within the school,” said Camrose Police Service SRO Constable Fernhout, adding that the premise behind the SRO position is to provide the resources specifically where they are needed, at the schools. The funding for the position includes joint contributions of: 30 per cent from the City of Camrose, 27 per cent from Battle River School Division, three per cent from Elk Island Catholic School Division and 40 per cent from various community partners and donations. “Donation funds are used towards DARE supplies, books, giveaways, DARE graduation t-shirts, certificates, training for the SRO position and equipment and salary costs.”

body by eating healthy and staying away from dangerous drugs and chemicals, a healthy mind by staying away from violence and learning new cognitive skills, and a healthy spirit by understanding how their mental health effects their self concept and relationships,” explained Const. Fernhout. He noted, with a smile, how after completing the Grade 3 DARE program students, who started out being somewhat shy and unsure, end up not only saying hello to him, but giving him high fives and hugs as they walk down the hallway. One might say that is the best validation for the program’s success. The Grade 6 DARE program explores student’s responsibility and how their decisions reflect their relationship to themselves and the people in their community. Const. Fernhout is joined by Camrose Police Service officers, Sergeant Scott Sveinbjornson, Constables Kelly Bauer, Mark Cossette and Nancy Murphy, who volunteer their time outside their regular policing duties. “These officers have made a commitment to make a positive influence in the lives of their students,” remarked Fernhout. At the conclusion of the Grade 6 DARE program, students are required to

Lori Larsen, Camrose Booster Camrose Police Service school resource officer Constable John Fernhout praises the value of the DARE program. SRO duties

The SRO program is responsible for the DARE (Drug Abuse Resistance Eduction) throughout the City, providing classroom teaching in Grade 3 for five elementary schools, Grade 6 for two junior high schools, (presently) Grade 8 for two junior high schools and the Camrose Outreach School; totally, on an average, 600 to 650 students per school year. The Grade 3 DARE program incorporates the main themes of the DARE program with a focus on encouraging students to live a healthy life including body, mind and spirit. “The SRO encourages behaviours and choices that will lead to a healthy physical

write an essay demonstrating the student’s knowledge and understanding of course content. There is also a graduation ceremony (sponsored by local businesses) celebrating the students’ achievements. The Grade 8 DARE program completed its final year. A brand new program, Be a Freak, is being developed by Fernhout and will be implemented in the 2018-19 school year. “Be a Freak is all about having students step outside of that mainstream box that people put them in and make decisions that are ethically and morally sound for themselves.” The new Grade 9 program will be separate from the DARE program and

will provide an opportunity for the school resource officer to have more presence at the high school level. “The main goal for this curriculum is for students to develop their own unique perception of what is acceptable in terms of behaviours and thoughts, even though this might be different from what mainstream society and culture accepts,” said Fernhout. Fernhout hopes to get these students thinking more profoundly about what is important for their lives. “What is really great about our SRO program is that every student in Grade 3, 6 and now Grade 9 have this contact with police. It is a constant reminder that we are in their community and are there to help them. We want to break down the stigma about police,” remarked Fernhout. “The ultimate goal of the SRO is to be an active resource to all of the schools and components, including staff members, students and parents. We are looking at proactive strategies, to prevent these students from going down the wrong road.” Another unique program Const. Fernhout has been doing for years is the Boy’s Council. Acting as a facilitator in uniform, Fernhout meets with small groups (10 to 14) of male youths ranging from ages 11 to 18 once a week for a minimum of 10 sessions. “Students from these groups are handpicked by the schools as students who are at risk or who need a positive male role model in their lives. The Boy’s Council is a proactive way to help create a positive healthy relationship between male youths and prevent them from partaking in criminal activities.” The program encourages open conversation, camaraderie and a sense of ownership to the program itself. “This isn’t therapy, it is just a chance for us to sit down, chat, and look at what it means to be a healthy male.” The SRO also participates in special activities throughout the community in an effort to build positive relationships. Such activities include barbecues for different events, the Rotary canoe trip, presentations, science fair judging, literacy day guest readers, CARE (Care, Area, Risk, Education) and overall school a s s i s t a n c e .“ L o c k d o w n drills and threat assessment is big. We want to keep the schools safe,” said Fernhout. With a mandate to build relationships at each school and an agenda that is far reaching, the school resource officer has proven to be a highly regarded and evidently necessary position within the community.

DARE grads appreciated By Lori Larsen

Grade 6 DARE (Drug Abuse Resistance Education) graduates celebrated their achievements on June 12 at a graduation celebration held at Duggan Theatre. Just over 200 Grade 6 students from Camrose schools were presented with a DARE certificate and congratulated by their DARE officers, teachers and dignitaries on the successful completion of the nine classes program. Camrose Police Service school resource officer Constable John Fernhout welcomed distinguished guests, City of Camrose Mayor Norm Mayer, Camrose Police Chief Mark Neufeld, constituency assistant Damien Kurek on behalf of MP for Battle River-Crowfoot Kevin Sorenson, representative Holly Lassesen on behalf of Wetaskiwin/Camrose MLA Bruce Hinkley and representing Battle River School Division Rick Tews. Const. Fernhout opened the formal part of the ceremonies by congratulating the students on their successful completion of the DARE program and reminding them to heed the lessons they learned. “Consider the choices you make and how you

can make healthy choices and reflect on your decisions and how you can make improvements in the future.” The students were also treated to a movie, pizza and juice donated by local businesses in a show of appreciation for the hard work and dedication in completing the program. “Sometimes we all feel like we have to be perfect,” quoted Const. John Fernhout from the movie Friday Night Lights. “Being perfect is not about your grades or how many friends you have, or how nice you dress, or having a new cell phone. It is not about being the best or winning all the time. It’s about you and your relationship to yourself, your family, your school and friends.” The DARE program, in Camrose, began in 1996 and falls under the umbrella of the School Resource Officer program, which is funded in part by the City of Camrose, Battle River and Elk Island school divisions and generous contributions by community members and businesses. The program is currently offered to Grades 3, 6 and 8 students. For more information on the DARE program, contact Constable Fernhout at 780-672-8300.

Q.

What advice can you offer for solo travel?

As one who frequently travels alone I say, “Just do it!” There’s no better way to get to know yourself, trust your own abilities, boost your confidence and force yourself to make decisions with confidence. Imagine doing and eating what you want, when you want, not worrying about pleasing or accommodating a partner, or trying to make decisions with someone else (or a group) in mind. Go where you’ve always wanted to go; see what you’ve always wanted to see, and do this on your terms and timeline. Many exceptional tour companies cater to solo travelers. Experience singles cruises, safaris and open or very structured travel to exotic destinations. Some companies offer options where they can match you with a like-minded single traveler. You can now often achieve single accommodation rates which equal to rates as offered for double occupancy. Travelling alone should be considered. The reality is that not everyone has the same amount of holiday time, travel budget, or dream destination; this should not hold you back from experiencing the world. Discover the real you and possibly meet many new friends! Answer provided by:

Should I buy or rent a home?

A:

Purchasing a home is always a terrific idea. The secret is buying the right property, in a price range that you can afford, in a location h works k ffor you and your family, and paying that off your mortgage in the shortest amount of time possible. Buying a home, particularly a first home, may well be your best and largest investment of your lifetime so it’s important to do it right. Over the years you will enjoy pride of ownership, and likely have a very nice tax-free capital gain after your home appreciates in value. Historically, home prices go up by approximately 3% per year. By the same token, while renting can be very appealing in the short-term, rents are also likely to increase by about 3% per year. The decision to rent versus buy has no perfect answer. Factors include lifestyle, your current and future situation, your budget and even your health. I can provide wise counsel to you, whether you are a first-time home buyer or a repeat buyer. I know this market very well and can definitely help you choose right. Answer provided by:

Q.

How common is hearing loss?

A:

Having a hearing loss today is not as uncommon as one may believe. The following statistics from the Better Hearing Institute illustrate this gap between those with hearing losses and those who seek care. - 1 in 4 workers exposed to high levels of noise will develop a hearing loss - only 13% of general practitioners screen for hearing loss. - 3 in every 10 people over age 60 have a hearing loss - 1 in every 6 people between ages 41 to 59 has a hearing loss. - 1 in every 14 Generation X’ers (29-40) already has a hearing loss. - 1.4 million children (under 18) have hearing problems - Only 1 in 5 people who could benefit from a hearing aid actually wear one. - 9 out of 10 hearing aid users report improvements in their quality of life. Clearly, these statistics are startling. This shows that many people are choosing to go without the benefits of solutions for their hearing loss. Most often, this can be due to confusion over what benefit hearing aids can provide, and which type of hearing aid is best for a specific person’s loss. Call today for a consultation.

By Murray Green

Camrose Composite High School student Alexandria Pickard is putting her seamstress skills to help girls in Africa through the African Dress project. “Little Dresses for Africa was founded in 2008 by Rachel O’Neil and is an organization that works with volunteers to make fun dresses out of pillowcases or other simple patterns,” said Alexandria. “Life is especially tough for little girls and young women in Africa due to the result of poverty. Often young women are left as primary caregivers due to the death of their parents from illnesses or starvation. These little dresses constructed with pillowcases are given freely to those who are in need.” Alexandria designed and constructed a beautiful pillowcase dress that she will be donating to Little Dresses for Africa. She hopes that this dress will bring joy and inspire these young girls.

Broken government has to change By Kevin Sorenson, MP, Battle River-Crowfoot

On May 29, the auditor general of Canada tabled his 2018 Spring Reports, which have been the subject of the Public Accounts committee’s review for the last couple of weeks; a committee I chair. While all the reports are important and worthy of diligent consideration, particularly the report on the Phoenix Pay System, it was the auditor’s somewhat unprecedented message that really caught my attention. Auditor General (AG) Michael Ferguson concluded that Phoenix was an “incomprehensible failure” and he questioned “why did no one realize the project would fail? Why did no one stop and fundamentally reassess the project?” And, “how could Phoenix have failed so thoroughly in a system that has a management accountability framework; risk management policies; program evaluations?” Ultimately, Mr. Ferguson’s answer to his own question was that it was “a broken government culture.” The AG challenged the government to either “perpetuate the current culture and its problems” or to “change that culture and reap the benefits of programs that work for people.” Conservative members of the Public Accounts committee responded to the challenge beginning with a request for the chief counsel to the Prime Minister and the head of the public service, the clerk of the Privy Council, Mr. Michael Wernick, to appear at our committee to respond to the AG’s message. I opened that meeting on June 12 by stating: “As it was somewhat unprecedented for the AG to write such a message, it is also unprecedented for me to open this meeting with a few words of explanation as to why the committee has requested your presence here today Mr. Wernick. Our focus is not primarily on the Phoenix Pay System nor is it with respect to the poor outcomes of Indigenous programs–although both are extremely important–they will be the subject of upcoming meetings. The objective of today’s meeting–the objective of the AG’s message–is “…to lead to a deeper understanding and correction of the pervasive cultural problems at play” within the Public Service; a culture that has created in the AG’s opinion, an “obedient public service that fears mistakes and risks. Its ability to convey hard truths has eroded, as has the willingness of senior levels including ministers to hear hard truths.” A culture, the AG claims has caused and will continue to cause incomprehensible failures. It is this committee’s sincere hope that this meeting today starts a process of change so that we do not experience anymore “incomprehensible failures”– failures that have adversely affected so many people; failures that could have been and can be avoided in the future.” Failures that resulted in 494,500 outstanding pay requests by public servants totally $520 million in pay errors in June 2017. Unfortunately, that process of change may not be forthcoming anytime soon as the clerk of the Privy Council characterized the AG’s message as “an opinion piece I take issue with.” In other words, Mr. Wernick disagrees with the AG’s comments. The AG will have the opportunity to respond to the clerk’s comment on June 19; one of our last committee meetings before Parliament recesses for the summer. At the time of writing, I am just preparing to head into a meeting on Report 1 of the AG’s 2018 Spring Report Building and Implementing the Phoenix Pay System, which will be the subject of my next column.

Bailey features classic movie at your By Murray Green

The Bailey Theatre is presenting The Graduate as part of a classic film series on Thursday, June 28. The Graduate is a 1967 American romantic comedy-drama film, starring (Dustin Hoffman), a recent college graduate with no well-defined aim in life, who is seduced by an older woman, Mrs. Robinson (Anne Bancroft), and then falls in love with her daughter Elaine (Katharine Ross). In 1996, The Graduate was selected for preservation in the U.S. National Film Registry as being “culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant.” Benjamin Braddock, aged 21, has earned his bachelor’s degree from Williams College and has returned home to a party celebrating his graduation at his parents’ house in Pasadena, California. Ben-

jamin, visibly uncomfortable as his parents deliver accolades and neighborhood friends ask him about his future plans, evades those who try to congratulate him. Mrs. Robinson, the neglected wife of his father’s law partner, insists that he drive her home. Benjamin is coerced inside to have a drink and Mrs. Robinson attempts to seduce him. She invites him up to her daughter Elaine’s room to see her portrait and then enters the room naked, making it clear that she is available to him. Benjamin initially rebuffs her, but a few days later after his scuba demonstration on his birthday, he clumsily organizes a tryst at the Taft hotel. Benjamin spends the remainder of the summer drifting around in the pool by day, purposefully neglecting to select a

graduate school, and seeing Mrs. Robinson at the hotel by night. He discovers that he and Mrs. Robinson have nothing to talk about. However, after Benjamin pesters her one evening, Mrs. Robinson reveals that she entered into a loveless marriage when she accidentally became pregnant with Elaine. Both Mr. Robinson and Benjamin’s parents encourage him to call Elaine, even though Mrs. Robinson makes her disapproval clear. Benjamin takes Elaine on a date, but tries to sabotage it by ignoring her, driving recklessly and taking her to a strip club. After Elaine runs out of the strip club in tears, Benjamin has a change of heart, realizes how rude he has been to her, and discovers that Elaine is someone with whom he is comfortable. Enjoy this classic at the Bailey Theatre.

Supporting the youth of Camrose By Lori Larsen

The couple that works together, in the case of Trish and Rees James of the Camrose Boys and Girls Club, stay together and while they may not always see eye to eye on every fine point they do agree on one thing, it’s all about the children and the youth. Rees has been with Camrose Boys and Girls Club since June, 1999, Trish since 2007, and it isn’t the first time the two have worked together, successfully. The Camrose Boys and Girls Club was formed in August 1989 and serves, on average, over 200 children/ youth with approximately 200 volunteers contributing over 4,500 volunteer hours. “I was actually on the board back in 1992,” said Rees. “I originally went to school to work with children. I spent nine years working with the Camrose Association of Community Living and don’t regret that for one minute. The various positions I held there prepared me to come over to the Boys and Girls Club.”

and Trish supervising the employee/staffing aspects. But its Trish and Rees’ genuine desire to make a difference in the lives of the children and youth they serve, that truly sets them apart. They have created a deep sense of inclusiveness and a club culture where not only the children/youth feel welcome but the families as well. “The culture of our club is very important. The staff instill that culture into everything they do and the children and youth as well,” said Rees, which is clearly evident by the number of youth that go on to volunteer their own time as mentors in the mentorship program. “The mentorship program produces strong leaders and is an important piece of the culture.” Trish and Rees ensure the staff all know the foundation of the Boys and Girls club lays in the mission statement of “providing a safe, supportive place where children and youth can experience new opportunities, overcome barriers, build positive relationships and develop confidence and skills for life.”

reached so much more of their potential,” Trish added, with unbridled excitement, that seeing a six-year-old use conflict resolution skills they learned at the Club, to successfully resolve issues and build positive relationships and build social dynamics, is the real pay off. “One parent in particular said her child experienced a sense of belonging at the Club that they haven’t experienced anywhere else and now feels like she is an important part of the community. It is so rewarding.” Shayne Marshall, another longtime member of the Club has also come up through the program, from Kid Way to a now valuable volunteer as a young adult. Trish commented. “He is a very valuable member of our organization and it has been mutually beneficial because Shayne’s family are incredible supporters of the Club.” The pride that both Trish and Rees share in the Boys and Girls Club comes shining through as the beam about the good the Club does for the

Lori Larsen, Camrose Booster Rees, left, and Trish James encourage inclusiveness at the Camrose Boys and Girls Club.

Rees’ educational background is in psychology and he always wanted to work with youth. He worked with the Bethany Group while attending university, CAFCL for nine years, once out of university, then the day his student loans were paid off he moved over to the Boys and Girls Club. “I knew then this was the right time.” Trish worked for 17 years with adults with developmental disabilities and brings a wide variety of experience and knowledge to the table. “I always wanted to work with people –serve people,” she said. “I liked this organization and I thought working with children and youth would be somewhat refreshing.” The couple’s work skills are a complimentary balance of Rees supervising the administrative aspect

Following closely in the impactful footsteps of Trish and Rees are longtime club members, volunteers and now employees Katie Grettum and Kody Hynek. Both of these young adults grew up with the Boys and Girls Club, with Trish and Rees as wonderful role models, and as active advocates of the club recently attended the National Youth Forum for the Boys and Girls Club. Rees remarked that the Club offers great opportunities for children/youth that may not necessarily be afforded otherwise. Trish added, “There is no charge to the family for the mentorship program and the participants get leadership and safety training. Those mentors become part of our staff and team. The growth we have seen in these children is phenomenal. They have

youth in the community. “The Boys and Girls club is pitched as an essential community service because it does make a difference in the lives of youth in the community.” A difference that is, largely in part, the result of Trish and Rees. “We are trying to instill social skills in the youth and have them give back to the community,” said Rees. “Instead of kids at risk we adopted the philosophy of Kids at Hope from the four aces, Ace of Clubs–Caring adults, Ace of Spades–high expectations, Ace of Diamonds–opportunities to succeed and the Ace of Hearts which is left to the parents. “More often than not a child has a bad day because of the people they are with,” concluded Rees ascertaining that a child will never have a bad day because of him, and Trish wholeheartedly agreed.

Turpin challenges graduates to make a difference By Murray Green

University of Alberta chancellor Douglas Stollery greeted the graduating Augustana Campus students before speakers challenged them to make the world a better place. “I congratulate you students on your dedicated pursuit of knowledge,” said Stollery. He received his law degree from the U of A in 1976 and his masters from Harvard in 1980. Wetaskiwin-Camrose MLA Bruce Hinkley welcomed more well-educated people into the province. “Now that you have your post-secondary education, there is no limit to what you can achieve. Your future awaits. Remember to continue to believe in yourself, the courage to take risks and following your heart. Turn your passion into action. Don’t be afraid to step outside of your comfort zone. Sometimes the journey will get tough, but take time to reflect with family and friends, and you will find the strength to keep going,” said Hinkley. “Dream big. There are endless possibilities in life. It doesn’t matter what you do, as long as you help others. Stay true to yourself.” Nettie Wiebe received an honorary degree from Augustana campus for her work in agriculture. “Finding a complex balance between ourselves and our environment, social, political and ecological is one of the biggest and

most important challenges we are all confronted with in our lifetime,” Wiebe said. Augustana conferred 162 graduates in Camrose. “Take pride in all that you accomplished. I hope you have had ideas that have been confronted by others. It is in these moments you learn the hard work of learning the perspective of others and how it affects you. Sometimes you have to admit you are wrong,” said Turpin. “At the same time, you have gained the experience of knowing how to develop an idea worth pursuing because you found evidence to do so. University prepares you for the future. We need you to be independent thinkers, we need you to question conventional wisdom, challenge the status quo and propose alternative solutions. Alberta, Canada and the world needs your leadership. We need your generation to shake us out of our complacency and sense of what is right. We need a new objectivity to move us forward,” said University of Alberta president Dr. David Turpin. “Be brave, be courageous and take risks. Continually devote yourself to seeking and confirming. Strive to create new ideas, and don’t fear testing and debating them. We have confidence in you.” He challenged them to be the future leaders.

Murray Green, Camrose Booster Andrea Marie Weber of Camrose was congratulated for her bachelor of arts degree, with distinction, by professor Allen Berger, dean of the University of Alberta Augustana Campus on June 3 during the Convocation for the conferring of degrees.

CAFCL hands out awards at annual general meeting By Lori Larsen

The Camrose Association for Community Living held their annual general luncheon meeting, on June 11. CAFCL board president Keith Lyseng introduced members of the CAFCL board and welcomed dignitaries Mayor Norm Mayer and wife Betty and Camrose County councillor Doug Lyseng. CAFCL CEO Esther McDonald shared the annual financial report indicating that of most importance, CAFCL paid off their entire debt and are in stable financial position. The total income for 2017/18 was $5,989,372 with 85 per cent from the government. Expenses were comparable to previous years and considered normal according to treasurer Jason Schilele’s report. There was an increase of $20,000 in maintenance costs due to a roof repair and replacement of the main electrical breaker and one major capital cost of replacing on of the vans. In summary, revenues exceeded expenses by $122,842. The Charity Auction held in October raised $70,000. “If it wasn’t for the grants and donations we receive, we wouldn’t be able to provide many of the services we offer,” noted McDonald. “We would like to thank all those people for supporting us.” In 2017, CAFCL served a total of 427 clients including those in service areas as far as Provost, Wainwright, Tofield and Bashaw and had 57 volunteers who donated 987 hours of their own time to benefit CAFCL. McDonald explained the success of the TIPS

(Teaching Independent Parent Support) program. “TIPS is a preventative program that works with families who at are risk because of mental illness, family violence or addiction and works with women who are pregnant or with children under the age of six,” said McDonald. “It is aimed at encouraging healthy babies and healthy children with mentors who are working with these families.” CAFCL staff and mentors provide assistance, flexibility, confidentiality, home visitations along with communal programs. Jobs4Youth program team members Tyler Sehn (team leader), Sarah Goulet and Denise Robbins gave a short presentation on the program and its continued success. The Jobs4Youth program is designed to connect potential employers with clients of Jobs4Youth. The clients (possible employees) are given training, support and continued monitoring and intervention (where necessary) throughout the employer/employee relationship, by the Jobs4Youth team. “I contact employers, negotiate contract and agreements,” said Sehn, adding that Sarah then works as the job coach and is communication that links everything together. “It goes on a client-byclient basis. Service Canada allows us to reimburse the employer for up to 24 weeks depending on the client, the role and the needs.” Goulet related a specific example of a client who was matched up with a local business based on the client’s (employee) specific employability needs. Goulet continued interventions with the employer and client and helped to tailor the job to best suit the client and the employer. “Today

she (client) has a new job role and as of now, she is a full-time paid employee and now needs very minimal support.” Jobs4Youth continue to offer support throughout the client’s job, as long as needed or requested. “Out of 25 clients we support, 16 are employed,” said Robbins, who also encouraged potential employers/clients to contact the program with any questions. At the conclusion of the meeting, CAFCL board members and staff presented awards to community recipients. The Corporate Champion Award was presented to CEL Electric. The Individual Champion Award was granted to CAFCL first vice president Michelle Colombijn. The Volunteer Champion Award was given to University of Alberta Augustana Campus Nursing Students. The recipient of the $500 Norris-Bowen Scholarship was Kaylee Lehman. Kaylee will be using the scholarship towards her studies at Canadian Lutheran Bible Institution in the fall of this year. Her goals are to work with the elderly as a rehabilitation assistant or with children as a youth leader. Receiving the $2,500 Human Services Scholarship was Sherry Lehman. The award is granted to people in the human services field planning on working in the field of disability studies. Sherry recently completed her degree in Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder Education and will soon be completing her practicum in the field. She will be using the formal education to assist her in raising her two adopted children, both affected by FASD.

Council receives CDSS update By Lori Larsen

Camrose and District Support Services presented the 2017 annual report, Making a Difference Across the Life Span, and audit for City of Camrose council members on June 4 during the committee of whole meeting. CDSS executive director Margaret Holliston preceded the presentation with the notion that life takes courage and that CDSS, along with its staff and members, demonstrated a lot of courage in the year 2017. She also extended her gratitude, on behalf of CDSS, to council for their continual support. In reference to the 2017 audit, Holliston said this year CDSS had about a $2,000 surplus, despite the audit indicating there was a bit of a deficit. “The funds were spent on a news server.” The grant funding report indicated that CDSS received $934,312 total in funding revenue, 80 per cent from the provincial level and 20 per cent from the municipal level. The 2017 grant distribution by program totaled $932,116. “ Wit h nea rly $1 million in FCSS funding alone, a significant number of dollars helped make a difference in our community in 2017,” said Holliston. Holliston indicated that much of what CDSS does is under other programs and acts in part as a funder. “We are not mandated to provide crises emergency services, but we can really help other people access the agencies that do have a mandate to provide those services.” Another behindthe-scenes area CDSS is involved in is the distribution and promotion of The Help Book. The Help Book is a complete guide of human services that exist in Camrose.” The Help Book is available through the CDSS office or can be viewed online at www.camrose fcss.ca/helpbook. Holliston provided highlights from some of the annual reports of Camrose and area’s services

Brian Donald Spielman

Gunter Deutsch

November 25, 1953 ~ June 7, 2018 It is with immense sorrow that we have to announce the passing of Brian Donald Spielman on June 7, 2018. We, his family, surrounded his bedside at home to say goodbye. He left this world with a smile on his face and hope in his heart. We mourn his passing, but celebrate the promises of God and eternal life in Him. Brian is survived by his wife (and BFF) Nancy, and their children Jonathan and (Shalene) Hart, Solveig and (Jean-Marc) Giffin, Thomas Hart, Luke and (Samantha) Hart, Epiphany Spielman and grandson Judah Giffin; as well as his sister Debbie McKeown and brother Troy Spielman. He was predeceased by both his parents Donald and Lieselotte Spielman; his brother Darell; and his favorite uncle Fred Krause; as well as many other family members and friends. Brian was born in Calgary, Alberta on November 25, 1953. He attended Sir John Franklin and Crescent Heights Schools. It was there that he began his love affair with running. In 1971, he became the Alberta High School X-Country Champion as well as placed first in numerous other races. After high school, he got a summer job at the CPR as a labourer. This is a job that would change his life and begin a lifelong passion for the railway and, in particular, for the Canadian Pacific Railway. Brian loved history and the stories of the past. In 1972, he began attending the University of Calgary. He later graduated with a Bachelor’s Degree in Urban Geography and English/Canadian Literature. He continued running, joining a small group of guys affectionately known as the Plastic Ono Boys, and competed all over the country, winning many of the races in which he ran. He was narrowly edged out of a spot on the Canadian Olympic team. He had applied for an Education degree, but instead took a job at Beak Consultants, an Environmental Company, in the graphic arts department. There he prepared presentations, maps, field studies and reports for clients. He worked throughout Alberta and NWT. He later attended seminary in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan and Dubuque, Iowa, earning a Masters of Theology degree. Brian had a passion for politics and believed we should all involve ourselves in some way. He worked as a manager for civic, provincial and federal campaigns. Brian also served on the mayor’s committee under Ralph Klein, working to locate the site for the Saddledome in Calgary. He also served as Yvonne Fritz’s aldermanic assistance until he himself ran for a seat as alderman. Brian sadly recalls his defeat by 703 votes, but always said God had other plans for him. Brian also served as store manager for Augsburg Fortress Bible Store in Calgary. In 1983, Brian married Bonnie Arends. Two daughters were born to this union, Solveig and Epiphany. Brian became a stay-at-home dad and loved his role. During this time, he taught guitar, coached running and was a school volunteer. He also began a furniture restoration and repair business out of the home. In the year 2000, Brian married Nancy Hart and her three boys Jonathan, Thomas and Luke, and thus began their blended family. They embarked on many things together including travel, music and woodworking. For the past 18 years, they have enjoyed many happy times together, becoming a deeply connected family. Brian began work at Charlie Killam School as an educational assistant. This job seemed to expand in many directions. This was not a job for Brian, but a ministry. He loved those he worked with and loved the students. He encouraged people to believe they mattered and he changed lives. He made a difference. Maybe yours was one of them. A service will take place on June 23, 2018 at 2:00 p.m. at the CityLights Church. If you are unable to attend, Brian’s service will be live-streamed on the CityLights Church of Camrose Facebook page beginning at 2:00 p.m. If you are inclined to give a donation, may we suggest the Cross Cancer Institute or we have set up a GoFundme page to raise donations for the Charlie Killam Band Program for those who are unable to participate due to lack of funds.  www.gofundme.com/brian-spielman.

Guest editorial

Quest for water By Arnold Malone

The geo-political struggles of the 20th century were often over oil and now we must get ready for the 21st century worldwide issue, which will be about water. We are informed that there is about the same amount of water on earth today as there was 40 million years ago. However, the surge in human population, the changes to the world’s eco systems and our changing climate have decreased the amounts of usable water that is readily available for we humans. Around the globe, there are many signs of growing water crises. Cape Town, South Africa, an affluent city of four million persons, is the first major world city to run out of water. The City of Cape Town will shut off all water to homes and business around mid-July unless there is an unexpected massive return of rain. Thereafter, water will be imported in containers, priced and rationed. In Australia, the Darling River, once a source for recreation, irrigation and a water supply for homes and business, has been reduced to a trickling puddle. That result is even after an expenditure of four billion dollars to stabilize the river’s normal flow. For four decades, the citizens of California have been verbally fighting over water. The fight is between farmers and environmentalists, North and South, rural and urban. Again, drought and cities’ growth has gobbled up the precious water supply. Sao Paulo, Brazil, along with dozens of other large world cities, is another example of too many people with too little water. Some are considering desalinating ocean water, which solves one problem only to create another; what will we do with all of the extracted salt? Of the 193 countries that are members of the United Nations, one-half of the world’s fresh water is located in just six of them. As it was with oil in the 20th century, Canada is blessed by an abundance of fresh water. One-fifth of the world’s fresh water is in Canada. Nevertheless, we have reasons for concern. Fresh water needs to be where the people are. The glaciers in the Rocky Mountains are shrinking and many cities on the prairies are dependant on the easterly flow of the rivers North Saskatchewan, Athabasca, Red Deer, Bow and Old Man. These rivers will be greatly impacted when the glaciers recede westward beyond the Great Divide. Thereafter, the water will flow west rather than east. In Sub-Sahara Africa, women and children, on average, walk 3.7 miles each day to source clean water and 6,000 children a day die from polluted water-related causes. Thirty per cent of the world’s fresh water is in underground aquifers. More than half of the underground water aquifers of India are depleting faster than they can be refurbished. Aquifers are the main source of India’s fresh water. A water crisis exists somewhere in every continent and 2.8 billion people experience a crisis of supply in at least one month of every year. Worldwide, one out of every nine persons suffers from a water shortage. The protection of our fresh water supply will not be easy. The only way in which water can be managed successfully is by long-term planning with a lot of forward thinking and some challenging decisions. There is an enormous danger of some cities growing into mega-cities. Whenever there is a large concentration of population, there is an extraordinary demand on nature’s capacity to supply enough water. In the future, urban population growth may need to be restricted to a safe level of water availability. The absence of oil in the 20th century meant a reduction of luxury; the absence of water means the end of life. Thousands upon thousands of people have lived without love, but no one has lived without water.

Jumpstart chapter assists with children’s activities By Murray Green

Canadian Tire Jumpstart Charities help children participate in sport and physical activity by assisting families to overcome the financial barriers associated with registration, equipment and transportation costs. A national charity with a local focus, Jumpstart makes sure every child has an equal opportunity to participate. Canadian Tire is encouraging customers to donate at their local store to ensure it leaves a positive and lasting impact on children. “Last year, the Camrose Chapter of Jumpstart Charities helped 117 Camrose-area children by raising $24,284. The local chapter includes FGL Sports (Sport Chek), Mark’s Work Warehouse and Canadian Tire to assist children to play sports, or help with programs that get children active,” said local Canadian Tire store owner Dave Jewell. “This goes to children who otherwise would not have been able to get involved. The funds covered things like registration, transportation fees, equipment and training,” said Jewell. Over the past 12 years, the Camrose chapter has helped 1,049 children and disbursed funds to local families through the Camrose Minor Sports Association Help Fund, Camrose

Boys and Girls Club and the Flagstaff Community Foundation. “We simply want to ask the community for their support in helping children achieve their goals of getting active. If they are able to, we ask that people make a donation, and/or purchase a puck (orange road hockey puck) to contribute,” he said. The Jump Start program funds more than 70 different types of physical activities and families can apply for funding for activities like dance, taekwondo, baseball and figure skating. Jumpstart is national in scope, but local in focus. “Funds that are raised in our community stay in the local community. Historically, we have had a large donor base in Alberta and the strong economy meant that there wasn’t as much demand for support. This has shifted and we want to let local families know that there is still help available,” explained Jewell. Jumpstart helps children aged four to 18 from financially disadvantaged families get in the game by helping to cover the costs of registration, equipment and/or transportation. Playing sports and participating in physical activity helps equip kids for life with essential

skills such as self-esteem, leadership and teamwork. Jewell credits the local community partners for their support of Jumpstart. “Jim Cook with the Minor Sports Association Help Fund and Rees James at the Camrose Boys and Girls Club have really assisted us in making sure the funds go to the people who are in need. They have been tremendous to work with in Camrose,” added Jewell. Canadian Tire Corporation funds the general and administrative expenses of the charity, so all donations made to Jumpstart go directly to helping children participate in the sport or activity of their choice. “We are community focused. All of our customer donations stay in the community in which the donation was made to help local children get in the game. This is very important to most people. When you purchase a puck, or make a donation, you are helping a Camrose-area child participate in programs,” said Jewell. If you know a child who wants to play sports or take part in physical activities but can’t afford to, call 1-844-YES-PLAY to apply. You can also apply with Jim Cook at Leisure Services. Applications are kept confidential.

Murray Green, Camrose Booster Canadian Tire owner Dave Jewell is holding a silent auction on a brand new barbecue and funds raised will go to the Jumpstart program to assist families in the area that includes Camrose County and Daysland. Bids are accepted at the Canadian Tire customer service desk.

The automotive section of

Patched bullet holes brought back memories By Murray Green

Wes Digel of Ferintosh always wanted to fix up the 1935 Ford two-door sedan that was passed down through generations. It was his grandfather’s car. “I’ve had the car for 60 years. His farm was near Drumheller and then we moved up here. I’ve had the car for all those years, but first started to fix it up the last two years,” Wes recalled. The Model 48 was an update on Ford’s V8-powered Model 40A, the company’s main product. Introduced in 1935, the Model 48 was given a cosmetic refresh annually, begetting the 1937 Ford before being thoroughly redesigned for 1941. The 1935 Ford’s combination of price, practicality, and looks vaulted the company ahead of rival Chevrolet for the sales crown that year, with 820,000 sold. “I have always wanted to fix it up. I remember being in the car when I was this high (pointing to about knee high to a grasshopper). We played in it all of the time,” said Wes. Karma has a way of catching up. “We used to take shots at it as stupid kids. Now I have filled all of the bullet holes.” Wes admitted he ended up paying for his mistake. “I ended up paying big time for it.” The 1935 Ford was a thorough refresh on the popular V8-powered Ford. The four-cylinder Model A engine was no longer offered, leaving just the 221 CID (3.6 L) V8 to power every Ford car and truck. The transverse leaf spring suspension remained, but the front spring was relocated ahead of the axle to allow more interior volume. The body was lowered and new Center-Poise seating improved comfort. “The body is the same, but most everything else has changed. It has a 350 engine and automatic transmission with an S10 front and rear end,” he said. “I wanted something you can drive down the road with and not putter around in like that old girl there (1902 Nash).” Visually, the 1935 Ford was much more modern

BULLET PROOFED

Murray Green, Camrose Booster Wes Digel paid for his mischief as a youngster by filling in bullet holes he made on his grandfather’s 1935 Ford sedan. He also filled in a lot of memories by restoring the family vehicle.

with the grille pushed forward and made more prominent by de-emphasized and more-integrated fenders. A major advance was a true integrated trunk on trunkback sedans, though the traditional flatback was also offered. Outdated body styles like the Victoria were also deleted for the year. The wooden panels on some cars were manufactured at the Ford Iron Mountain Plant in the Michigan Upper Peninsula from Ford owned lumber. “It is a hobby car. It’s been a nice car and I have always liked it. I also have a 1937 two-door coupe as well. I’m not sure if I will fix it up. I have to pay this one off first.” Two trim lines were offered, standard and DeLuxe, across a number of body styles including a base roadster, five-window coupe, three-window coupe, Tudor and Fordor sedans in flatback or trunkback versions, a convertible sedan, a woody station wagon, and new Model 51 truck.

Rumble seats were optional on coupe model. An oil pressure gauge (costing $4) and two windshield wipers were optional. If you had the optional radio, it replaced the ash tray. “I like to go to car shows and cruise around in it. This (Bashaw) is the first show that I have gone to. I’m testing the waters, so to speak. I plan on staying close to home with shows this year.” Chevrolet regained the sales lead at the end of 1936, but the Fords still sold extremely well. Right now, the car is still primed and is waiting for a new paint job. “I’m still getting some bugs out of the car yet and then I’ll paint it in about a year. I plan on going to shows while I continue to fix it up,” said Wes. “I’m not even sure what colour yet, probably a greenish-blue. It’s hard to pick a colour.” It was an educational experience for Wes. “It was a learning process. The roof was out of it and I put a new floor in it. I stripped it right

to the bone and reframed it, boxed it all in. It is some-

thing to kill time with,” he laughed.

Cool tools for teaching fire safety

MAINTENANCE • TIRES • BRAKES • OIL & FILTER • BATTERIES • ALIGNMENT

Are you ready?

By Lori Larsen

Children should be taught at an early age what to do in the event of a fire, as well as key factors in fire prevention. Currently, Camrose Fire Department is fundraising towards the purchase of an inflatable firehouse, an educational tool that can be used to teach fire prevention and safety to primarily elementary school-aged children. “The inflatable firehouse is an effective educational prop that teaches children proper fire safe behaviors,” said Camrose Fire Department fire and life safety educator Jeff Knopf. “Children locate potential fire hazards in the kitchen, living room and bedroom and practice simple methods of eliminating potentially dangerous situations. “They crawl through the house and locate an emergency escape route. Finally, the children exit the firehouse which is filled with a nontoxic, waterbased ‘smoke’ through the window onto an inflatable safety pad.” The inf latable firehouse would be utilized during school tours at the Firehall as well as fire prevention programming activities throughout the community. “We have secured funding for half of the project, but still need an additional $5,000 to complete the project.” Camrose Fire Department continues to provide the community with opportunities to assist in educating, not only children, but, everyone in the importance of fire safety.

Curb the Danger report leads to arrest of impaired driver June 15

Camrose Police Service received a report from a male that his 1999 Dodge truck was stolen, while parked on 49 Avenue in the 5200 block. Police are investigating the theft.

At 11:45 p.m. police were advised of a vehicle playing very loud music outside 118 Mount Pleasant Drive. Police located the vehicle parked at Marler Mini Mart with three occupants. Police observed open liquor at the feet of

an intoxicated passenger who was on conditions not to consume alcohol. The 19-year-old male was arrested and charged with breaching his conditions. At 7:07 a.m. police received a Curb the Danger call regarding an idling

vehicle parked on the wrong side of the street with a male playing loud music. Police attended and the male was passed out behind the steering wheel. The male who was clearly under the influence of alcohol was woken up, arrested

and transported to police headquarters where he provided two samples of his breath that were twice the legal limit. The 24-year-old was charged with having care and control of a motor vehicle, while impaired by alcohol.

Winged wonders By Lori Larsen

They float around us in an array of colours and sizes reminding us that summer is fleeting and we should take a moment to stop and appreciate its beauty. Butterflies and moths are nature’s winged miracles of metamorphosis. Join the Camrose Wildlife Stewardship Society summer program on June 19 at 7 p.m. at the Stoney Creek Centre, 5320-39 Avenue to hear about the amazing world of butterflies and moths. A presentation by University of Alberta professor Tom Terzin will include the diversity and biology of butterfly and moth species that you can find in your backyard. Anyone attending any of the CWSS summer program events are invited to fill out an evaluation allowing their name to be entered into a draw for a variety of prizes donated by local businesses.

Hospice Society Death Cafés successful initiative By Lori Larsen

The concept of death cafés has been around since 2004, dating back to Swiss sociologist and anthropologist Bernard Crettaz who recognized the need to educate and help people become familiar with issues surrounding end of life. As the concept became more known, the first death café was implemented in London in 2011. As an extension of the positive work the Hospice Society of Camrose and District does to assist residents of Camrose and surrounding areas, a version of death cafés was created for Camrose and area residents in the winter months of 2017. “It came about because there were a couple of people on the Hospice board who had attended death cafés in other communities and thought this might be something that could happen here,” said

Hospice Society of Camrose and District vice-chairperson Pam Cummer. The idea first came to fruition though the University of Alberta Augustana Campus where a couple of students ran the Death Cafés as a pilot project. “It was very successful and very interesting to have the interest from the student body,” said Cummer. “There were a couple death cafés that were handled there at Augustana, then the Hospice Society thought we should pick that up and run it on a regular basis. It was very popular and well attended.” The Hospice Society partnered with Camrose Public Library where the cafés are hosted the third Thursday of every month at 7 p.m., excluding July and August. “The library has been very helpful, they are great partners.” Hospice volunteers,

arranged by Hospice volunteer coordinator Joy LeBlanc, help set up and make tea and coffee and arrange some snacks. As the Hospice chair of education, Cummer arranges for the booking of the room and the facilitators for each café. “We have a group of about a half a dozen people who are interested in facilitating the Cafés.” Cummer noted that at first some of the facilitators were concerned they may have to run a presentation for the entire meeting, however the participants seem to have no trouble keeping the conversation going. “Sometimes the facilitators will pose a question to the participants and the participants may break off into groups of two or three and discuss that question, then come back to the big group and share. There is never a lack of conversation. It is

simply amazing. People just like to have the opportunity to talk about death in a nonjudgemental environment.” The premise behind the cafés is to provide a safe and open environment which allows the participants the opportunity to discuss their thoughts, dreams and even fears about dying, and possibly their own wishes after they die. “The atmosphere is relaxed and supportive, as participants enjoy tea, cake and good conversation,” said Cummer adding that the cafés are not a bereavement support group and should a participant need that type of support, they would be kindly steered to other resources available through the Hospice Society. Participation in the cafés has been steady with numbers anywhere from six to 20 people attending. “We have people of all age groups, from young

adults to seniors. We have even had professionals who are interested in knowing what death cafés are about. In some cases, there are people who have experienced a loss and talk about feelings and people who talk about dying, their own mortality and plans or death rituals. Various topics come up.” Cummer said that the group even has some people who attend on a regular basis, including a participant who has started Death Cafés in Wetaskiwin. “The need is there and people want to attend. It brings an awareness to the community about the (sometimes deemed as sensitive) topic of death and dying.” For more information on the Death Cafés or the Hospice Society of Camrose and District, visit the website at camrosehospice.org/.

Charchun focus on playing baseball By Murray Green

Kyler Charchun of Camrose is focusing his future in sports on the baseball field. The all-around good athlete has put his crosstraining aside and wants to go as far as he can in baseball. “This summer, I am playing for the South Edmonton Cardinals. We are a midget triple-A travel team that just competes in tournaments and plays the odd weekday games against other Edmonton area midget teams,” informed Kyler. He is expected to be one of the leaders this year. “We are a bit of a younger team, so I think out of the gate we may have a slower start. Once some guys get a few weeks of games under their belts, I feel that we could be a

highly competitive team. As I mentioned before, we don’t play in a league, so for us our tournaments will highlight the majority of our schedule,” explained Kyler. The local player is known for both his pitching and his batting. “My pitching days are behind me now and I am currently playing in the outfield. More specifically, I typically spend most of my time in left field.” In the past, he has played at a high level of hockey. “I am no longer playing hockey and am 100 per cent invested into taking baseball as far as I can. I’ve been attending Prospects Baseball Academy for the last two seasons where I have been able to continue to work on baseball skills throughout the winter.”

He played a game with the Grande Prairie Storm of the Alberta Junior Hockey League. Kyler is building towards having a good season next year. “I have committed to Cloud County Community College in Concordia, Kansas, United States where I plan to attend school and continue playing baseball. It is a Division 1 Junior College that is part of the NJCAA. I am extremely excited for the opportunity and to have a chance to go down and experience playing college baseball. I will head down sometime in mid-August to begin school and our baseball season will begin in February 2019.” Kyler played for Camrose Minor Ball when he was younger.

Zimmer moves closer to home, joins Kodiaks By Murray Green

The Camrose Kodiaks acquired forward Damon Zimmer from the Spruce Grove Saints to add some local talent to the line-up this fall. Zimmer, born in 2000 from Daysland, was someone Kodiaks general manager and coach Boris Rybalka had his eye on.

“We are excited to add Damon to the Kodiaks’ organization. We were looking for a centre man and we found that in Damon. He comes to us from a great family background and a desire to succeed and move onto the next level,” said Boris. “At 6’1” and a 190 pounds, Damon will fill the

middle of the ice quite well wearing a Kodiaks jersey.” The Kodiaks had to give something good up to get Zimmer and they have moved forward Colby Wolter to the Spruce Grove Saints. “Colby will be missed as he was a tenacious forward.” You will be able to see

Zimmer on the ice as the Kodiaks will be having a summer camp on June 22 in Camrose. Bear tracks

The Kodiaks will be holding their annual golf tournament this year on June 23 and 24 at the Camrose Golf Course and Norsemen Inn. Prior to golfing on Saturday, June 23 at 7 p.m.,

there will be a social for all of the golfers at the Camrose Golf Course. On Sunday, June 24, at 10:45 a.m., there will be a brunch at the Norsemen Inn for all of the golfers. Golfing is set for a shotgun start at 1 p.m. Call the Kodiaks office at 780-6792603 for your spot in the tournament.

Despas crafted bench honours Wack family By Murray Green

Marvin Despas honoured former Camrose Kodiak defenceman Stephen Wack and his family with a beautifully handcrafted bench that features two pictures of Stephen playing hockey. “I’ve been doing some

woodworking for about five years. I’m not a professional and I do it with a chain saw and a sander. I sell my benches, tables and crafts at the downtown market,” explained Marvin, who volunteers with security at the Kodiak games. “I wanted to do some-

thing special for the Wack family because he played hockey here and in Humboldt. My wife Edie remembers his mother and visually impaired brother coming to the games. She is more observant than I am, so we decided to do something,” shared Marvin.

Submitted Former Camrose Kodiak player Stephan Wack was honoured with a handcrafted bench featuring pictures of him in action with Camrose and Humboldt. From left to right, Marvin Despas of Camrose, Alan Wack, brother Justin Wack, Edie Despas and Tricia Wack.

“I wanted to do something in memory of him for his family. He was a dedicated player. I don’t know his parents, but it’s my way of honouring him and his family.” Marvin also goes to the St. Albert Farmers’ Market, so it was a great oppor-

tunity to meet his family and present the gift on June 9. Wack and the rest of the Humboldt Broncos hockey team were involved in a bus accident last April that killed several people including the former Kodiak.

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 colour 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.

Kodiaks receive honours for work in schools By Murray Green

The Camrose Kodiaks junior-A hockey team were recognized by the Battle River School Division with the Friends of Battle River award for their involvement in the schools this season. The Friends of Battle River award provides recognition for an individual or organization, which provides support to the Battle River School Division. This season the Camrose Kodiak players spent a minimum of one day per week visiting schools in the community. The Kodiaks Cubs Club was formed for players to encourage students to improve their literacy skills and to meet physical activity goals outside of school hours as well adding six new Little Free Libraries to the community. “It is an honour for us to receive this recognition for the time spent in the schools. It is one way we can give back to the community. Our players did a fantastic job engaging with students and I believe it was a win-win for everyone involved,” said associate coach Nigel Dube. In total, over 2,900 combined hours of literacy and physical activity were achieved outside of the classroom, as well players were active role models participating in different classroom activities. “The Kodiaks Cubs Club was an excellent experience for players, students, and teachers in its inaugural year. On a weekly basis we saw the hallways light up with smiles when the Kodiaks arrived to support a variety of learning experiences in the classrooms,” said BRSD programming consultant Andrea Gutmann. “Students were excited to achieve their goal of healthy physical activity and literacy. The players were positive, encouraging, and excellent role models. Battle River School Division is grateful for the partnership with the Kodiaks and support sponsors.” The partnership will continue. “The Kodiaks are proud to be a part of the community of Camrose and look forward to continuing time spent in the schools having a positive impact added Nigel.

Neighbor Aid extends hours By Murray Green

The Camrose Neighbor Aid Center expanded its hours starting on June 18. The Center will now be open from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. every day. The Food Bank will be open from Tuesday to Thursday from 9 to 11:30 a.m. The longer hours for the Center will allow for more access for community people. While winter and spring months are full of activities to collect food, the summer months are usually a rest period for collecting. However, mid-June demands are emptying the shelves at a steady pace as supplies in some products have been diminished. “It’s normal for this time of year. Food is slower coming in, but the demand is still there. We are going at a steady pace,” said program director Jo-Anne Tweed. “I thank people who are donating because we are making a difference in this community together.” Food donations are accepted at the 4525-54 Street Neighbor Aid location. Cheques are welcome that are made out to Camrose Neighbor Aid Center as well as cash to purchase perishables. If you have a big supply of food, notify the Center at 780679-3220 so volunteers can help receive the food.
