One of the great pleasures in the life of a child is waking up on Christmas morning to a gift under the tree. Kids such as four-year-old Ayva Bruneau are already eagerly counting the number of sleeps until Christmas morning. Each is dreaming about getting a favourite toy, perhaps something new to wear, or unwrapping something they had discovered in a catalogue or in a store, to be under a beautifully decorated Christmas tree on December 25th. Not all children are as fortunate.

The Camrose Kinettes Silent Santa program, now operational for about sixty years, has a goal of ensuring every young person from our community has something to open on Christmas morning. Club members are now collecting new, unwrapped gifts and cash for youth up to seventeen years of age. Every year, there is a shortage of gifts for males and females in the age nine to seventeen category. Suggested donation items for older children and teens include: hygiene kits, bath bombs, socks, board games, footballs, soccer balls, hairdryers, makeup kits, cologne, jewellery and gift cards from local businesses. Donation boxes are out at Duggan Mall and Superstore now through December 20th. Cash donations can be dropped off at Shuman Insurance.

Are you hard-wired for sloth?

Headline: “New research shows it’s really hard not to be a sloth.” No surprise here. As a kid, my least favourite class was Phys Ed. I was klutzy, uncoordinated and dreaded the embarrassment. Exercise was not something our family thought was important. My dad used to say, with pride, “Hasn’t been an athlete in the family for seven generations we know about.” When jogging became popular he said, “I get my exercise being a pall bearer for friends who drop dead of a heart attack while jogging.” You could say I didn’t come from a tradition that encouraged physical activity. ***

A few years ago though, it occurred to me that it might be in my self-interest to exercise. As jazz musician Eubie Blake said, “If I’d known I was going to live this long I’d have taken better care of myself.” I stumbled across The Scientific 7-Minute Workout and read the stuff–how short bursts of intense exercise may be as beneficial as longer exercise sessions. The research seemed credible–though as a devout couch potato I wasn’t exactly a discerning reviewer. I kind of slid over the part that said the seven-minute workout shouldn’t be your only exercise. The workout was carefully designed to exercise every part of your body. Except for the dreaded word “intense,” a seven-minute workout definitely sounded more appealing than, say, 30 minutes cardio and 10,000 steps every day. Besides, even the phrase “seven-minute workout” made me laugh. I decided to try it. ***

My first workout shocked me. I had no idea how out of shape I was. My seven-minute workout took about 20 minutes–three-quarters of which I spent gasping while my heart pounded (a cardio benefit?). The toughest exercise was the lunge. I could get down on one knee, but couldn’t get back up, plus, if I didn’t put my hand on something to balance, I tipped over. Around that time I had lunch with my granddaughter who loves working out. I thought she might be interested in the seven minute workout, for times she couldn’t get to the gym. I showed her the stuff–the exercises and the background research. She nodded as she noted that all the movements were familiar. “How many reps do you do?” she asked. “Reps?” “Yes.” In response to my puzzled look she explained, “Repetitions.” I was stunned. “You would do these more than once?” She’s still laughing. ***

That was a few years ago. Having promised myself I’d do the workout every day for at least 30 days, I slogged on. Before 30 days were up, I began to notice small improvements. And so I kept on. It was gratifying that gradually, I could do the exercises more easily. I even increased the number of reps and the intensity. Days really did go better after my energizing morning exercises. I also began to experience benefits like the mood-lifting impact of physical movement. Who knew? So about that headline, “It’s really hard not to be a sloth.” A Metro News item reported on University of BC research conducted by a team of academics from several universities. Results showed it takes much concerted brain effort to avoid sedentary behaviour and much less brain effort to avoid physical activity. Post-doctoral researcher Matthieu Boisgontier explains, “Conserving energy has been essential for humans’ survival as it allowed us to be more efficient in searching for food and shelter.”

All forms of military since the First World War including 50 years. Where did all the radiation go? Space program. Every time something is sent to space, what does that cause? All forms of planes including jet planes. Someone has to study the pollution from just one plane trip. The throwaway society. For example, when an appliance would last 20 years, now a couple of years and the computers go and it is cheaper to throw it away than fix it. Global trade across oceans. Every time we have another trade agreement, more ships are crossing the oceans. More pollution–larger ships larger ports. Where will it all end? We should trade on our own continent and save whales. Cruise ships. Where does all the waste and garbage going in and out of port? They just keep getting bigger. For all the talk about climate change, re: Calgary’s 100-year flood, I’d like to see a map of Calgary and area 100 years ago and see what’s changed. If you build near a river, maybe in 100 years, you should expect a flood now and then. For all the people who want to get off fossil fuels, you have a giant windmill in your front yard or in the ocean to screw up your view. As for wind mills, what is there true cost? Where do you get all the products to build one and where are they built?

What’s the cost of maintenance? There should have been solar on every rooftop years ago. There has to be common sense. Ask the right questions. Get off your “smart devices” and use your own brain. Sheila Faulkner, Donalda Celebrate doctors

Join us in celebrating family physicians across our Camrose Primary Care Network. As you may know, each year the College of Family Physicians of Canada (CFPC) proudly acknowledges the outstanding contributions of Canadian family doctors and the highly valued relationships they have with their patients and the communities they serve. This year Family Doctor Week in Canada was celebrated from Nov. 12 to 17. For the past 10 years I have had the privilege of working with a number of family physicians throughout the Camrose Primary Care Network (PCN) catchment area (Bashaw, Camrose, Daysland, Forestburg and Hardisty). Therefore, on behalf of Camrose PCN administration and our healthcare professionals. I would also like to thank the Camrose PCN board of directors including physician lead, Dr. Chris Nichol and directors, Dr. Bredesen, Dr. Pasha, Dr. Smith and Dr. Minders for their leadership and efforts in overseeing the day to day operations of the Camrose PCN. I truly believe the quality programs and services we develop and offer our patients originates from

the dyad governance model we have in place with our physicians. This year, I am proud to focus on our family physicians’ desire to enhance patient care through quality improvement. To date much work has been done to enhance patient care through quality improvement activities involving family physicians, associate clinic staff and Camrose PCN administration and healthcare professionals identifying areas in a family doctor’s practice that can be improved and then working as a team to make incremental changes over time. These changes may include improved access to care, patient safety, and efficiency as well as more positive experiences for patients in their health home and health neighborhood. Lastly, on behalf of the Camrose and Area Physician Attraction and Retention Committee I wish to express to our family physicians that we sincerely value your contributions to our communities, that you do good work and that we want to continue to help you to be successful. The importance of recognition and reward is often undervalued and understated within the medical profession however appropriate acknowledgement and appreciation is a common denominator for all individuals regardless of how one defines their workplace. So in recognition of Family Doctor Week, we say thank you. Stacey Strilchuk, Camrose

If you, like me, have spent years avoiding physical activity, you now have a research-based rationale. Our brains are hard-wired for sloth! It’s a survival thing. Impeccable cover story and…I’m grateful I stumbled across something that’s moved me (literally!) beyond biological hard-wiring and family tradition. I’m no athlete but I’m grateful to discover I love walking and even just moving for the sheer joy of it. As a University of Alberta trainer says, “Keep moving so you can keep moving.” ***

I’d love to hear from you. If you have comments about this column or suggestions for future topics, send a note to Bonnie@BonnieHutchinson.com. If you ask me about “The Scientific 7-Minute Workout,” I’ll happily send you a link.

Pedestrian struck by vehicle in marked crosswalk Nov. 16

Camrose Police responded to a collision involving a pedestrian at the intersection of 48 Avenue and 65 Street. It was

determined that a male was walking in the marked crosswalk when a vehicle operated by a 57-year-old woman struck the pedestrian. There were fortunately

no injuries and the female driver was charged with failing to yield to a pedestrian in a crosswalk which carries a fine of $776. A local bar contacted

police regarding an intoxicated male who was refusing to leave. The grossly intoxicated 43-year-old was arrested and held in cells until sober. Upon his

release, he was served with a trespass notice prohibiting him from attending the licensed establishment for a period of six months.

Merry Christmas Fund needs your support to give local families a festive meal this holiday season. “Last year, we supplied 252 hampers to families. The way the economy is, I’m expecting that number to be closer to 260,” said Merry Christmas Fund public relations chair, Dale Debnam. “We need to raise $32,000 in order to purchase food for the hampers. The cost of food has really gone up, so we may need more than that. Last year, we raised about $30,000, but we had a shortfall of $667.” The Camrose Merry Christmas Fund was launched in 1965, to supply food hampers to less fortunate families in the community. Although some things have changed through the years, the need to provide food support hasn’t. “Our goal this year is projected to be higher. We are estimating the number of hampers to be more than last year and our target goal is to cover the cost of the food,” said Dale. “We are hoping people will donate soon because we would like to pay for the food soon after 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 of January. The food hampers are intended to provide a good Christmas meal and food for an entire day. “If some-

one wants to have a hamper delivered to them or a family, they have to register at the Camrose and District 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,” she added. “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 Camrose Kinettes. “Some hampers will also have toys to deliver at the same address. The Kinettes sort and package the toys, the 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 and those who have a larger vehicle can take more. We meet at the current Fire Hall starting at 9 a.m. to start delivering hampers,” said Dale.” For more information about the Merry Christmas Fund, contact Larry Schultz at 780-672-1493. If you need a donation picked up, contact Dale Debnam at 780-672-8777. The hampers are packed at the Fire Hall on Dec. 21 and delivered to homes on Saturday, Dec. 22 in the morning. If people know they are receiving a hamper, they are asked to be home to receive the hamper, to avoid sending it back. Undelivered hampers will have to be picked up at the Food Bank.

Downtown Camrose celebrates community and tradition

Santa boards Camrose Fire Department’s version of a shiny red sleigh, with the assistance of CFD firefighters Randy Degenstein, centre and Steve Clarke, and heads to Downtown Camrose tree lighting. Lori Larsen, Camrose Booster

Downtown Camrose celebrated the incoming holiday season in a big way on Nov. 15 with the Lighting of the Real Tree (Celebrating Community & Tradition). A large crowd of people, ranging in ages, gathered at the real Christmas tree at the north end of Main Street for the official lighting of the tree.

With the help of City of Camrose public works director James Sacker, right and the jolly fella himself, Santa, Mayor Norm Mayer plugged in, to light up the massive tree.

supplies, along with whatever else we can provide to make a stay in a strange place, a little more comfortable.” The Camrose Women’s Shelter serves vulnerable individuals promoting the safety and wellbeing of individuals, families and the community, and by working in partnership can share resources, especially expertise in the area of domestic violence. “We have a good working relationship with both VSU and the CPS. Both have assisted clients from the shelter on many occasion,” noted Rear. “We are moving into the Christmas season, which can be a very difficult time for families who have left abusive relationships. The partnership between Victims Services Unit and the police is very important to the shelter.” The Open Door is a regional not-for-profit orga-

Kodiaks lose to Oil Barons By Murray Green

The Camrose Kodiaks were down 2-0 against the Fort McMurray Oil Barons before the bears fought back with two of their own to tie the contest on Nov. 10. Dawson Schwengler scored on a power play with 23 seconds left in the middle frame to spark the Kodiaks before they headed into the dressing room. In the third, Colson Gengenbach collected the equalizer to force the overtime period. After no goals, a shoot out was added to determine the outcome in the fifth round. Goalie Roddy Ross stopped 42 of 44 shots he faced. Camrose fired 33 shots on the Oil Barons’ cage. After a four game road series, the Kodiaks host Calgary Canucks on Nov. 29, Okotoks on Dec. 1, Grande Prairie on Dec. 7 and Whitecourt on Dec. 8 in the next home games. All games are at 7 p.m.

Police association supports community By Lori Larsen

Camrose Police Association (CPA) has generously donated to local not-forprofit organizations from funds raised during the annual CPA Golf Tournament and association dues that each member pays monthly. Police associations are in place to represent the local membership both provincially and nationally. Fees collected are used in a variety of ways to not only support the members, but also to benefit community not-for-profit organizations. Not-for-profit organizations that support such things as arts, education, social services, sports and recreation and youth groups within Camrose can apply for CPA community grants by emailing camrosepoliceassociation@ gmail.com, to request an application package. “Application packages received go through a rubric where each application is scored based on certain criteria,” explained CPA treasurer Constable Kelly Bauer. “The monetary grants are intended to support projects that provide a direct service to the community and are responsive to community needs and issues.” This year, the association chose three deserving organizations to receive moneys that will assist them in their efforts to ensure Camrose is a community where everyone can thrive. “We see several very good applications each year, of which the top three receive grants. “One of our recipients was successful in receiving a grant this year, even though they weren’t selected last year, so I would encourage organizations to continue applying each year.” The recipients of this year’s grants were: The Hospice Society of Camrose and District–funds will be used towards the 2018 Fall Symposium, Camrose Pride Community–funds will be used towards the Art Therapy Program, and Camrose Performing Arts Managing Council– funds will be used towards the BRAVO Youth Access Program.

Genealogy branches out

By Lori Larsen

The Alberta Genealogical Society, Camrose Branch will be starting up two Special Interest Groups (SIGs) in connection with the Branch’s existing activities. All interested participants in the SIGs must belong to the Alberta Genealogical Society. The first SIG is Writing Family History and will be held the first Wednesday of the month from 10 a.m. until noon, at the Camrose Public Library in the downstairs meeting room. “The purpose is to help our members kickstart projects,” said Camrose Genealogy branch co-president Janine Carroll. “This will also help us concentrate on those projects, get input and feedback from the group and give us time each month to get things done.” Carroll noted that many family historians tend to get distracted when following links and get lost in reattach and history. The objective behind the Writing Family History SIG will be to direct energy into specific areas of research.“Research can take us all over the place, so we sometimes have papers (hard copy and electronic) that we don’t file properly because we are on our way to a different place. Multiply this by dozens and documents become useless because you cannot find them.” Carroll has decided to concentrate on her female lineage. “The first family history project I’ll be writing about will follow me, my mom, grandmother and

great-grandmother as far as I can go. Up until now, I’ve found myself following specific family names which are, of course, attached to male ancestors.” Members of the society, specifically this SIG, will need to first decide what the project is that they will be working on then take into consideration who they are writing for, whether that be a publication, immediate family members or for a family reunion. “My project, for example, is for my family, to record facts and stories,” explained Carroll. The writing SIG will provide a monthly deadline for research and a twohour time frame to share and work on the specific project. The second SIG Organizing Your Genealogy, will meet every third Wednesday of the month at the Camrose Public Library downstairs meeting room, from 10 a.m. until noon. Tricks and tips will be provided to participants in an effort to help others organize their projects, allot time to work on them and maintain motivation and deadlines. The Camrose branch is looking into bringing other SIGs on board in the future, such as computer research and another DNA, but for now are concentrating efforts on organizing these first two. For more information on the Alberta Genealogical Society, Camrose Branch, visit the website at www.abgenealogy.ca/camrose-branch or telephone 780-608-6243.

RCMP remind motorists to properly secure loads on vehicles By Lori Larsen

Camrose and area RCMP reminds citizens to use extra caution while driving on the highways, especially during this season where daylight is at a minimum and farmers are hauling loads. On Nov. 10, at approximately 5:30 p.m., Cam-

rose RCMP responded to a report of a semi-tractor truck and trailer colliding with a straw bale on Highway 21 near Township Road 492 approximately five kilometres south of New Serepta. Another f lat deck truck was travelling southbound on Highway 21 when

a straw bale fell off the load onto the roadway. An oncoming northbound semi-tractor collided with it causing damage to the semi-tractor. The driver of the semi-tractor was not injured. Camrose RCMP are asking the public’s assistance for any information

in relation to this incident. If you were driving in the area on Nov. 10 at approximately 5:30 p.m. and have dash camera video, you are asked to contact Camrose RCMP at 780-672-3342 or your local police. If you wish to remain anonymous, you can contact Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 (TIPS),

online at www.P3Tips.com or by using the “P3 Tips” APP available through the Apple APP or Google Play Store. Motorists are advised to properly secure all items that they may be transporting on their vehicles or trailers.

Working Well WORKSHOP

ents Refreshm provided Cannabis concerns

While cannabis is now legal in Canada, people still have many questions about the laws, etiquette and effects. Students at Augustana are no different and have many quesGeraint Osborne, tions themselves. RecentSociology, Tim Parker, Psychology, Augustana ly, we addressed student Campus, University questions in an ongoing of Alberta “Cannabis Corner” column in The Medium, the Augustana student newspaper. We thought others in the community might have similar questions and so we thought we’d share our answers with Booster readers. In our inaugural column, we received a number of questions, including a few concerning the secondhand effects of smoking cannabis (“second-hand high”) and how long THC lasts in the body (a particular concern for those pulled over by police). In some rare cases a second-hand high is an inadvertent effect of a person (or animal) simply being in an enclosed area where a lot of potent cannabis is being smoked. However, a second-hand high can also be produced intentionally. This involves either “hotboxing” or “shotgunning”. The former refers to smoking cannabis in a small enclosed space (e.g. a car, closet, or bathroom) in order to maximize the narcotic effect. The latter involves taking a drag, and then exhaling directly into the mouth of another person, either mouth to mouth (“shotgun kiss”) or through a tube of some sort (a discarded cardboard roll). This is an effective way to deliver THC to produce a second-hand high. So, as long as you are in a large room with good ventilation, a second-hand high is unlikely and you shouldn’t be worried. As for the lingering effects of cannabis, it’s useful to remember the case of Ross Rebagliati. He was an Olympic snowboarder who won gold at the 1998 Nagano Olympics. When he tested positive for THC, his medal was stripped from him. He insisted that he hadn’t smoked cannabis since 1997, and that he must have ingested second-hand smoke at a party his friends held for him days before. On appeal, his medal was restored. The rest of this story is that he founded Ross’ Gold, a medical marijuana company. The issue of testing positive for THC is a serious one. Currently, if police suspect your poor driving is due to some form of intoxication, they are allowed to submit you to a simple roadside sobriety test. If you fail this test they can bring you in to subject you to further testing. THC has a long half-life in the body. It can last on the order of days. In addition, if one only smokes a bit every day, it can accumulate in the body, because it’s not being cleared out fast enough. All of this means that if you consume cannabis you will have the drug in your system well after the effects have worn off. If it gets to the point where your urine is being tested, THC can show up weeks or even months later. THC also accumulates in hair, so it’s possible to tell someone’s distant THC history by analyzing hair. In terms of the cannabis equivalent to the breathalyser, last August, justice minister Jody WilsonRaybould approved the Dräger DrugTest 5000, as “approved drug screening equipment” for law enforcement to use at the roadside to test for both THC and cocaine. Studies have found that the test is, unfortunately, inaccurate 13 per cent of the time and is particularly ineffective when the temperature drops between four and minus 40 degrees Celsius, which is quite often the case in most parts of Canada. Legal cannabis is a reality in Canada. There will undoubtedly be many issues and problems to work out over the next few years and people will need to be patient before all the goals of legalization are achieved. During this period of adjustment it will be important for Canadians to be well informed and educated about cannabis.

The Camrose Heritage Railway Station and Park invites residents to come out on Dec. 1 for the annual, very popular Cookie Walk sale. The event begins at 1 p.m. and runs until the goodies are gone. And as history attests, the goodies run out quickly. “Last year, we sold out over a 100 dozen cookies in a little over an hour,” said Railway Station managing director Norm Prestage. “People were lined up to come in when we opened at 1 p.m.” The event features a wonderful variety of homemade cookies, squares and other desserts along with some homemade loaves, preserves and relishes. The White Elephant Gift Shop will be open so guests can peruse for unique gift ideas. The King George Room will be selling desserts and tea for a little break from the mad rush of the Cookie Walk. This is the ideal way to get your Christmas baking done in one fell swoop, while donating to one of the main fundraisers for the Camrose Heritage Railway Station and Park and keeping an important part of Camrose and area heritage alive.

ÉCCHS to perform Les Misérables By Murray Green

The Camrose Composite Playhouse and Camrose Composite Band will be presenting four shows of the award-winning musical Les Miserables School Edition. “It’s my favourite musical of all time. The message of redemption and a man who turns his life around, the music is phenomenal, the songs stay with you and it is one I wanted to do for a long time. I didn’t think were able to do it yet because it is challenging and is sung the whole way through,” said drama teacher Stephen Cole. “After the success of West Side Story last year, I realized we can do this.” The six shows will be held at the Jeanne and Peter Lougheed Performing Arts Centre on Thursday, Nov. 29 to Saturday, Dec. 1 with shows beginning at 7 p.m. Two extra shows will be held on Nov. 30 and Dec. 1 at 2 p.m. A school show will be held Thursday morning for other students. “This is a total École Camrose Composite High School project. It involves almost every aspect of the school, not just our drama and music departments,” said principal Todd Sieben. “It involves our fashion studies program with making costumes, our industrial arts with making sets and many other student and staff volunteers. It is a true school event.” Les Misérables is the world’s longest running musical–a true modern classic based on Victor Hugo’s novel and featuring one of the most memorable scores of all time. The multi-awardwinning Les Misérables is as ground-breaking today as it was when it first premiered in London in 1985. “Last year was my first time as a lead, so this year, it is way more focused on vocals and it is very challenging,” said Anika Briscoe (Eponine). “This is my first operatic musical (all singing, no spoken words) which is a different challenge with a different take on what I’ve done before. It’s a new opportunity,” said Tadhg Barker (Javert). “This is my first musical at the Comp, but I have done musicals in the past.

I sing a lot, but it still a challenge with the different music,” said Keysha Swanson (Eponine). “The biggest difference is character for me. In previous years, I have played a comedic relief character. This year, I play a serious character. She is in love, is abandoned and then is forced to give up her child. She goes into prostitution and ultimately dies. It is a lot different,” said EmmaLeigh Simonet (Fantine). Continued on page 18

es to believe Valjean can change his ways. Finally, during the Paris student uprising of 1832, Javert must confront his ideals after Valjean spares his life and saves that of the student revolutionary, who has captured the heart of Valjean’s adopted daughter. “The show has loss and love. Prostitution is a dark theme, but it is important to recognize the theme and the loss. There have been wars, battles and revolutions and you see that loss, but they put names to those lost. The lesson is to take

life seriously, but also live life to the fullest and take it all,” said Anika. “The biggest lesson for my character, Javert, is that he is doing what he believes is right. In the show, he is portrayed as a villain because he is chasing an escaped convict, but the lesson I take away is that right and wrong is not often black and white. It can be a spectrum and you are not entirely sure what the right thing is to do,” said Tadhg Barker. “By the time my character dies, she has seen a

lot of growth. She is in love with someone who is not in love with her and she finally accepts that. What I have learned is that if something doesn’t go the way I want it to, then it is still okay,” said Keysha. “I take away the sign of hope in this play. There is something better presenting itself at the end. There is always a silver lining in something,” said EmmaLeigh. “The message of hope is what you can use in the future.”

Barra MacNeils share Christmas By Murray Green

A traditional favourite, the Barra MacNeils’ An East Coast Christmas is a treat for the whole family. It features five siblings from Sydney Mines that share their instrumentals, ringing harmonies and delightful flair for storytelling. The family will be performing in Camrose at the Jeanne and Peter Lougheed Performing Arts

Centre on Saturday, Nov. 24 beginning at 7:30 p.m. “Since the last time we played in Camrose, we have had a new Christmas album to give us three Christmas albums, plus we have some unrecorded material. We have been going on a national tour for the last 15 years. This spring we released a brand new album called On the Bright Side so we will have a couple of numbers from

that album as well,” said Boyd MacNeil. One of the most-beloved concerts on the seasonal circuit, the Barra MacNeils Christmas shows always feature a highly entertaining brand of traditional seasonal fare mixed with entertaining stories and new musical twists; stamped with their lush harmonies and intricate instrumental stylings.

“We change up the show as much as possible while also keeping some of the old standards that people look for everywhere we go.” Their unique seasonal show is crafted each year to bring a special Celtic spin on traditional favourites and original east coast treasures with songs, stories and dance. “We mix traditional songs with some of our songs that were written by family members,” shared Boyd. “It is our interruption of some old songs. Each family gathering, we all bring our instruments and play together and that led to sharing our Christmas songs that were passed down to us. People found that entertaining and here we are 15 years later, going on another Christmas tour,” said Boyd. The Barra MacNeils’ live concert experience is family entertainment at its highest level, leaving memories that will last beyond the season for a lifetime. “Our parents made Christmas a special time. We would go tobogganing and then come home to mom baking cookies. Our house is a very festive place this time of year. When my grandmother was alive, we would spend Christmas with her and then move out to the country to play music and eat some more,” he laughed. The Barra MacNeils feature Kyle (vocals, guitar, violin, mandolin), Lucy (vocals, bodhran, Celtic harp, fiddle, stepdancing), Sheumas (keyboards, piano, bodhran, fiddle, bouzouki, vocals), Stewart (vocals, accordion, tin whistle, flute, bouzouki, guitar, stepdancing), Boyd (mandolin, fiddle, guitar, banjo, percussion, stepdancing) and family friend Jamie Gatti (bass). “On stage, we try to recreate some of those Christmases we went through and people respond positively to it. When you get positive feedback in the lobby, it lets us keep doing what we are doing.” Their numerous critically acclaimed recordings have included their own original songs as well as tried and true standards, both instrumental and vocal. Fans can look forward to classic favourites including “Oh Holy Night,” “Ave Maria,” “A Christmas in Killarney” and “Auld Lang Syne” as well as some comedy, seasonal stories, music, singing, dance and memories that will extend beyond the season and last a lifetime.

Guest editorial

Our voter’s choice By Arnold Malone

British Columbia is in the midst of a referendum that has the intent of promoting proportional representation (PR) as an ongoing provincial election procedure. During the last federal election the current Canadian Prime Minister claimed that, “This is the last election using the first past the post process.” PR is a concept that allows various political parties to assign seats to a legislature or parliament in ratio to the percentage of votes that each party achieves in a province or nation. So if a Neo Nazi or Communist party got, let’s pretend, three per cent of the overall votes they would be awarded three per cent of the seats. The concept pretends to be more democratic by having a wider inclusion of citizens’ thoughts. The weakness is in the invitation for many more parties mostly with fringe opinions. In the latter part of the 20th century, a committee of the United Nations ranked 193 countries for, “Most desirable places in which to live.” Canada often ranked first and always in the top few. That success was achieved with governments elected through first past the post. We need to be cautious when vacating such a long-standing, successful procedure. Australia and New Zealand hate their new system. Most European countries have more frequent elections than Canada. Since the end of the Second World War, Italy has averaged another election every year. What we know with certainty is that no private sector corporation would establish a set of values and then select a board of directors with widely varying business values. The government of a province or country is the CEO of their jurisdiction. PR has the optics of inclusion, yet I assert that it delivers many unexpected dangers. Those damaging results are longer than this column can include. Most persons wishing for greater inclusion have never sat in a political caucus. Political parties are not a monolith. A caucus already is a forum for diverse debate. I have been surprised by how business oriented some persons in the NDP are and how socially progressive some in the Conservative party tend to be. What works best is a very few parties, but all are big tent parties that include a whole spectrum of opinions. PR encourages single-interest groups to become a political party. Such groups know that they could never get elected in a constituency. However, they bet that across a large jurisdiction such as a province or nation they might get enough votes to obtain one or more seats. Most European Countries have PR usually with more than 15 political parties. Many countries have more, such as the extreme example, Italy 163. Sir John A. MacDonald could never have built the controversial transcontinental railway that kept British Columbia in Canada, if he had to gather the support of many other groups. Lester Pearson could not have passed the, then, unpopular Canada Health Act if his government contained numerous parties. Leaders are elected to lead and that means taking a society to a new place that otherwise they would not choose, yet in hindsight, take ownership. That is what leadership is supposed to look like. Free Trade is another example. Australia was once a country that reflected Canada’s election pattern. Then they switched to PR. They now have had five Prime Ministers in six years. With 14 parties, it was hard to get a majority. PR disrupts the agenda of all governments. Decisions are not well structured through unending negotiations with splinter groups. If multiple-party decisions reflected leadership, then the Israeli and the Palestinians would have had a working peace agreement decades ago. A number of peace agreements have been brokered only to have minority parties reject them. Israel is a country with 34 political parties and 17 elected in to the Knesset. A concerning aspect of PR–as with the Australia example–is that once established, it requires the support of those minor parties to change the voting system. So, while the citizens and the elected politicians in Australia dislike their current voting system, the smaller parties hold an exaggerated power. Splinter groups would commit political suicide if they voted to revert to their former system. Therein lies the great fault with PR. A few parties have wide support, but other groups achieve representation only because of a scattering of votes over a wide territory.

Don’t let the Christmas blues get you down. Uncle Wiggly’s Hot Shoes Blues Band will lift your spirits with his great holiday music. Uncle Wiggly and his band has been around since 1978. Now he will be at the Bailey Theatre on Tuesday, Nov. 27, beginning at 8 p.m. They are former RCA recording artists and members of the Victoria Music Hall of Fame even though they are originally from Edmonton. (Okay, I’ll let you in on a secret. Uncle Wiggly is actually the great Hank Leonhardt. You may remember him playing at the Bailey Theatre in the A Fist Full of Blues show a couple of years ago. He grew up in Stettler before hitting the international blues circuit in the ‘70s). In January 2015, Uncle Wiggly had the opportunity to represent British Columbia in Memphis, at the International Blues Challenge. This show featured the seven-piece Uncle Wiggly’s Hot Shoes Blues Band from Victoria that toured extensively in the ‘80s, opening for such legends as Muddy Waters, Joe Cocker, James Cotton, Koko Taylor and Paul Butterfield.

Enjoy a glimpse into the heart and soul of Christmas from a blues point of view. Uncle Wiggly is known for his powerful voice and, whether he is performing with gut-wrenching drive or gently caressing a moment of musical tenderness, you’ll feel the magic of the holiday blues right down to your toes. Guitarist Mark “Westcoast” Comerford’s authentic blues style captures the feeling and essence of all these great songs. Along with Andy Graffiti on drums, “Lightnin” Lonnie Glass on bass, Dennis Meneely on keyboard, Don Berner on sax, and Doug Berner on trumpet, they bring you the blues in holiday fashion. Most of these guys are from Edmonton. This show is a collection of traditional blues Christmas tunes from the ‘20s right up to the ‘60s. Songs are from Louis Jordan, Big Joe Turner, BB King, Eric Clapton, Charles Brown and Etta James. It’s not the standard collection of carols; rather, it’s a tribute that gives you a look into the souls of the fabulous music legends sharing their Christmas blues.

Sparling School hosts market By Murray Green

HAPPY GRILLMORE

Submitted Tanner Kendall and his Happy Grillmore team won second place in the Grillin and Chill’in’ second annual barbecue competition last August. Next year the event will take place on Aug. 9 and 10.

The Sparling School Council will be holding a Friends of Sparling Fundraising Market to assist in the building of a new playground. The market will take place on Dec. 1 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the school. About 30 vendors will have crafted and home made goods for sale, as well as some brand name items. “This is our first market to raise money for the playground. The new

playground is costing us $175,000 and we have roughly $10,000 raised so far. I said I could look after a market to help raise funds. I am trying to get more vendors. I have 30 and would like to have 40, so I’m almost there,” said Annmarie Latour, organizer of the event. “We are asking each vendor to donate an item for a silent auction. The money raised from the tables and the silent auction goes right to the

Friends of Sparling, to go towards the playground.” The old wooden playground structure was removed because of safety issues. The school has a small play area for about 160 students. “I hope people can come out to our market and support our school.” Contact Annmarie at 780-678-9104, if you wish to purchase a table at the event.

Camrose KidSport needs are increasing By Lori Larsen

The need to assist families that may otherwise be unable to have their children participate in organized sport/activity, is increasing. Not-for-profit organizations, such as KidSport, are doing everything to ensure those needs are met.

winter skiing (2) and theatre (4). Meet the board

The Camrose KidSport board consists of six volunteer members: chair Kristy Smith, treasurer Keeley Popowich, Laurie Kushnerick, Karla Wolbeck, Ronelle Kiziak and Kayle Warkentin, who are dedicated to

been on the board for five years. Outside of volunteering, Keeley is a commercial account manager with RBC Royal bank. “I was very impressed with KidSport Camrose’s vision to make a difference in our community,” said Keeley of why she chose to get involved with the organization. “My kids have all been part of minor sports, so I wanted to be part of the organization that helped make sport accessible to every local family.” Laurie has been on the KidSport (Camrose Chapter) board since its inception in 2013. She is a family wellness worker with Elk Island Catholic Schools in Camrose and has always enjoyed being involved in sports. “It has so many health benefits, both physically and mentally. I have four boys who play competitive sports in Camrose. I appreciate all of the benefits that it has given our family. I wanted to be a part of

have these same opportunities.” Karla has been on KidSport Camrose board for six years and is a math and physical education teacher at Camrose Outreach School. “I believe that the values gained through playing sports have a lifelong impact on an individual. I love KidSport’s mission, to remove barriers so all kids have a chance to play, and therefore build important life skills.” Board member Ronelle has been with the organization for four years. Her day job is a commercial account manager with RBC Royal Bank. When asked why she has been involved with KidSport she replied, “I was fortunate enough to play numerous sports growing up in rural Saskatchewan. Not only did it keep myself and my teammates out of trouble, we learned lessons in teamwork, problem solving and resiliency. My hope is that each child KidSport Camrose sponsors, can gain these core skills that they will use throughout their life.” Kayle is in his third year with KidSport Camrose. His

Operated entirely by volunteers and with next to no operating costs, the Camrose chapter of KidSport began in 2013 and has funded children and youth from Camrose and surrounding area in a variety of sports and activities. The current funding amount per child/youth (18 years and under), per year, equates to $350 each. In 2018 (to date), Camrose KidSport funded 132 children/youth, totalling $38,087. The sports/ activities funded included: baseball (3), basketball (4), bowling (5), dance (16), equestrian (riding lessons 1), football (23), gymnastics (15), hockey (13), soccer (25), taekwondo (12), volleyball (3), Kandu Camp (9), skipping (1), camp (1),

ensuring the success of the organization. Kristy has been with the board since KidSport Camrose began in 2013. When not being a mom and wife and volunteering throughout the community, she is a teacher at Our Lady Mount Pleasant. Kristy has a passion for KidSport and the good it does for children. “I was approached to join the board not long after my grandpa Ray Brown passed away. He loved sports and would always go out of his way to help people, especially youth, along with being a supporter of anything having to do with local youth. I saw this as a tribute to my grandpa.” Treasurer Keeley has

day job keeps him busy as a construction design and proj-

ect manager. “I got involved with KidSport because I know how costly sports are getting for kids and saw an opportunity to help.” Upcoming events

The challenge with any not-for-profit organization, is the constant uphill battle to raise funds to assist in helping those in need throughout out communities. KidSport continues to do their part and relies on the support and generosity of community members to help them reach their goal. “The Fall Raffle is one of our major fundraisers for local youth,” said Kristy. “We only sell 250 tickets and the winner takes all–which includes two tickets anywhere WestJet flies.” If you are interested in purchasing a Fall Raffle ticket, contact Camrose KidSport by email or telephone (see below for contact information). Residents are reminded to keep any unused or outgrown bikes handy, to donate to the KidSport Bike Swap Event the first Saturday of April (April 6, 2019). “You can make money off your bikes while helping a good cause,” remarked Kristy. “This is a way to recycle bikes and provide them at a cheaper price than new and is a vital community initiative that helps families with multiple children or families in need.” Coming up is another popular KidSport fundraiser, the 50/50 draw at Rogers Place on Saturday, March 30. “We are in need of volunteers to assist,” said Kristy. “We will be leaving Camrose that day on a bus for Rogers Place at 3:45 p.m. and returning home late.” For more information to volunteer or if you wish to make a donation to Camrose KidSport, contact by email at camrose@kidsport.ab.ca or by telephoning 780-7811197 (Kristy’s cell).

Learning commons dedication By Lori Larsen

In September, the learning commons at the University of Alberta Augustana Campus was dedicated to late alumna Rashmi Bale. Rashmi Bale graduated from Augustana with her bachelor of management in 2015 and went on to earn her law degree from the University of Leicester. She had dreams of becoming a professional human rights advocate in the effort of protecting the innocent. Unfortunately, Rashmi

and her brother, Ritvik, passed away as the result of a motor vehicle accident in the summer 2017 in Calgary. In memory of their daughter, Rashmi’s parents Ravi and Rajni Bale donated a generous gift to Augustana to name the learning commons as well as to create a bursary in honour of Rashmi. Ravi Bale spoke about the inscription, “Make each day count” on Rashmi’s memorial plaque which hangs at the entrance of the learning commons. “I plan to live out Rashmi’s

saying for her for the rest of my days,” said Ravi. University of Alberta Augustana Campus dean Allen Berger commented, “As the years pass and students enter and graduate from Augustana, Rashmi’s energy and spirit will remain. The Bale family’s generous donation to establish the Rashmi Bale Learning Commons, will ensure future students will benefit from the supports that allowed Rashmi to flourish on this campus for generations to come.”

Submitted Rashmi Bale’s parents, Ravi and Rajni stand in front of the plaque dedicated to their daughter.

OLMP not just hosts of volleyball provincials By Murray Green

The Our Lady of Mount Pleasant (OLMP) Royals high school girls and boys will be hosting the 2A Alberta Schools Athletic Association volleyball provincials from Nov. 22 to 24. The games will be played at the OLMP, St. Patrick School and University of Alberta Augustana Campus gyms. “We’ve had a good year so far and have made it to the semifinals in every tournament. We will probably be one of the smaller teams at provincials, so we have to out work other teams,” said Carson Baker. “We need to play as a team to have success and rely on each other. We need to be fundamentally strong.” The Royals were undefeated in league play, but know there are better teams out there. “We had some good teams at our own tournament and all of our games were close. We lost by a couple of points and we took sets off of teams that were in the final last year. We will definitely see them again at provincials,” added Carson. “We’ll be excited for a rematch.” Carson has been playing volleyball for OLMP since Grade 7. “We are really excited to host provincials. It is a once-in-alifetime opportunity. To be at home hwith our OLMP family is incredible. The students and our whole team are just excited. That is all we are thinking about, playing in front of our family. It is going to be awesome.” OLMP went from having no program in volleyball to hosting high school provincials. “This is the strongest year we have had at OLMP and we defi-

nitely feel we are in the conversation as one of the top teams at provincials. We feel we are a top-five team and we want to move up,” said Carson. OLMP played in zones to prepare for provincials. “I want everyone to come and support us. We are just so exited to be in provincials.” Carson loves the sport and wants to keep playing. “I want to play well and next year I’m going to Augustana to play volleyball. I’ve been part of the club program and I want to continue to improve and play for the Vikings. I grew up watching them, so it will be pretty exciting for me to play for Augustana,” shared Carson. “It is something I always wanted to do and it is becoming a reality.” The opening ceremonies will be held at Augustana on Nov. 22 at 9 a.m. Both the OLMP girls and boys will open provincials following the ceremonies. The girls also play at 1:45 p.m. at St. Patrick School. They play Friday at St. Pat’s at 11:30 a.m. and 1:45 p.m. at OLMP. The round robin finishes for OLMP on Saturday at 9:15 a.m. at St. Pat’s School. The boys play at 4 p.m. on Thursday at Augustana, 12:45 p.m. at OLMP on Friday and again at 3 p.m. at Augustana. They complete the first round on Saturday morning at 10:30 a.m. at Augustana. Playoffs begin at 12:45 p.m. on Saturday with tiebreakers if they are needed. The gold medal matches begin at 7:15 p.m. If anyone wants to volunteer for score-keeping or the front door, they can contact 780-678-7357.

ECCHS Wall of Fame inductees honoured By Lori Larsen

Years ago, in an effort to recognize and honour distinguished alumni and faculty, École Camrose Composite High School (ÉCCHS) established the Wall of Fame and subsequent ceremony. This year’s Wall of Fame inductees will be celebrated on Nov. 23 at 12:30 p.m. at the ÉCCHS library. Inductees include distinguished alumna/ us Lanette Prediger, Colleen Nelson, Shane Ashton and distinguished faculty, Sherman Sundbo. Lanette Prediger

Dr. Lanette Prediger was an honours student and a gifted athlete, playing both volleyball and basketball. After ÉCCHS graduation, she enrolled in a science program at Augustana. She moved onto study medicine at the University of Calgary. In her second year of medical school, Lanette was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s Lymphoma, a cancer of the white blood cells. Coping with the diagnosis and cancer treatment slowed her down temporarily, but fueled her resolve to become a great physician and an Olympian. After completing her medical training and residency in urgent care medicine, Lanette began to work in the high pressure world of the emergency ward. Her skills and leadership earned her the respect of her colleagues and supervisors and subsequently she was named site medi-

cal lead for South Calgary Urgent Care. In 2006, Dr. Prediger enrolled in the sport of skeleton driving school at Calgary Olympic Park. In 2014, she earned a spot on the national team and took a number of podium placements with the world’s elite. Lanette and husband Alexis, physics professor at Mount Royal University, live in Calgary. Colleen Nelson

Colleen Nelson graduated from ÉCCHS in 1974. She took her first year of university at Camrose Lutheran College, now Augustana, before transferring to the University of Alberta. There, she earned her bachelor of education with distinction in 1978, and was named that year’s recipient of the Pearl Turner Award in Early Childhood Education. Later in life, she returned to the University of Alberta to work on her master of education, part time, while working full time as a vice-principal in the Battle River School Division. Her research focussed on character education, specifically developing empathy in children. As a certified Roots of Empathy instructor, she brought the program to the students of Chester Ronning School and École Sifton School.

In 2014, Colleen retired as principal of École Sifton School. That same year, she was named recipient of the Council for School Administration’s highest honour, the Alberta Distinguished Leadership Award. Colleen’s volunteer work has been a prominent part her life for more than 40 years. She was a founding member of the local amateur theatre group Churchmice Players and has remained active with that group in a range of capacities. She currently serves as president of the Bailey Theatre Society. Another of Colleen’s passions is celebrating the dignity and worth of all citizens, especially marginalized youth. She is a founding member of the Camrose Pride community and remains active in its Friends and Family Group. For most of her life, she has been an active member of the Camrose United Church. Colleen and Brian have two adult children and live in Camrose County.

bachelor of science and doctor of dental surgery. Immediately after graduation, Dr. Ashton began his professional career at the Camrose Dental Health Centre. He has coached minor sports and done service work in Mexico, Ecuador and Costa Rica.

After graduating from ÉCCHS in 1991, Shane Ashton entered a B.Sc. program at the University of Calgary, transferring to the University of Alberta after his first year with an ultimate goal of a career in dentistry. In 1993, nearing the end of his undergraduate program, Shane participated in a one-year Canada World Youth program in Honduras, re-applying to the University the next year for the dental program. Shane maintains he learned more in that year in Hondurus then in all his years in university combined. The following year, Shane was again admitted to the faculty of medicine and dentistry, graduating in 1998 with distinction as

Sherman Sundbo

Shane Ashton

Colleen spent her entire 35-year career in the Camrose area, teaching both kindergarten and elementary grades and working as a resource room teacher.

Shane has taken part in a number of mission trips, including Youth with a Mission in Mexico City, Medical Missions International in Ecuador and Samaritan’s Purse in Costa Rica and enjoys volunteering for his children’s activities. Shane and Shauna live in Camrose and have three children.

Sherman Sundbo was born and raised on a farm near Birch Hills, Saskatchewan. Like most farm kids, Sherman spent as much time as possible outdoors and was fascinated with how things were put together and how they worked. From an early age, he was repairing and constructing buildings, driving farm machinery and learning the fundamentals

of mechanics. The practical skills he learned in his youth became the foundation for his future career. He later attended the University of Saskatchewan and earned his teaching credentials before moving west to Alberta. After teaching in High Prairie for five years, he moved to Camrose in 1975, where he was the industrial arts teacher for the next 32 years, retiring in 2007. During his career at ÉCCHS, Sherman taught mostly introductory classes, giving students a broad general foundation in a range of disciplines. His students were both required and inspired to complete their projects to an exacting standard. All students acquired skills that would serve them well later in life, whether in basic home maintenance or in pursuing a satisfying hobby. Some students went on to more specialized courses and became skilled tradesmen. Later in his career, Sherman gave respected leadership as head of the department providing much of the foundation for ÉCCHS’s respected and popular CTS program. He was active in the school’s intramural program and was a long-serving member of the awards committee. He also coached senior girls’ basketball for several years where he emphasized character and skill development above all. His teams competed successfully at both zone and provincial levels. Sherman and Darlene continue to make their home in Camrose and now spend their winters in Arizona. They have two adult daughters.

Chamber outlines business priorities in Vote Prosperity By Lori Larsen

Recently the Alberta Chambers of Commerce (ACC) released, Vote Prosperity, a platform and campaign outlining the Alberta business community’s priorities for the upcoming 2019 provincial election. “Alberta businesses are the backbone of our economy and provide opportunities for all Albertans, and that’s why chambers across the province will take the message of Vote Prosperity to every candidate in every community,” said Alberta Chambers of Commerce president and CEO Ken Kobly. “The foundations of our prosperity are under duress, and every government decision needs

to ensure it does not harm our economy. Alberta’s business community is prepared to be bold, and with Vote Prosperity we are seeking to motivate our political leaders to follow.”. Vote Prosperity is based on four pillars for Alberta including strengthen business competitiveness, growing provincial trade, building healthy communities and improving government accountability

“T

he new STAT holiday legislation adds another expense.

“The Oil and Gas sector and pipeline issues have directly impacted a lot of families in our area and continue to do so,” explained Camrose and District Chamber of Commerce president, Julie Girard. “Because the families have less guaranteed income, there is less revenue being spent at our local businesses.” Girard also noted that the addition of the increases in minimum wage, many local businesses are struggling to make ends meet. “The new STAT Holiday legislation adds another layer of expense and the potential layer-

”

ing of Provincial and Federal Carbon Tax will only add fuel to the fire.” Girard emphasized the importance of all levels of government engaging in honest and thorough consultation with business owners, prior to legislating additional costs to business. Kolby further stated, “Alberta businesses have made it clear that the everrising cost of doing business from all levels of government has hindered their ability to grow and compete. Our recommendations provide a prosperous path forward because when you vote for prosperity, Alberta wins.” Contained within the platform are 17 recommendations to help bol-

ster Alberta’s long-term economic future, while addressing the pressing issues limiting economic growth today. Over the coming months, ahead of the 2019 election, the ACC and Community Chamber network will be voicing the concerns and recommendations outlined in Vote Prosperity with political parties, MLA’s and local candidates. During the election, community chambers will be hosting candidate forums, with discussion on Vote Prosperity.

The automotive section of

Dodge Challenger sports a fast reputation By Murray Green

John Babwick of Camrose has always loved the power that came with the 1974 Dodge Challenger sleek racing looks. “I’ve had this car for about five years now. I found it in Calgary. I have a new Challenger, but this one is way nicer,” laughed John. “I always wanted one. This one was almost done, but it had a 318 motor in it. I put a 414 stroker engine in it to give it some more power. I re-did what had to be done and then I had a buddy paint it for me.” The Dodge Challenger is the name of three different generations of automobiles (two of those being pony cars) produced by American automobile manufacturer, Dodge. However, the first use of the Challenger name by Dodge was in 1959 for marketing a “value version” of the full-sized Coronet Silver Challenger. John wanted to put the power back into the car that he remembered it having. “Not sure what attracted me to the Challenger, but I always wanted one as a youth. They were pretty fast and then I bought a brand new one. But it wasn’t the

EXTRA POWER

Murray Green, Camrose Booster John Babwick of Camrose added extra power to the 1974 Dodge Challenger that he loved as a youth. He purchased a new version of the classic, but it wasn’t the same, so he added a 1974 Challenger that he found in Calgary.

same, I wanted an old one,” revealed John. “Norm Zunti helped me put the engine in, transmission and new

FUN FACTS

The Challenger was available as either a two-door hardtop coupe or a convertible, and in two models for its introductory model year. The base model was the Challenger with either an inline-6 or V8 engine, as well as a Challenger R/T that included a 383 cubic inch (6.28 L) V8. The Special Edition (SE) trim package added a number of appearance, convenience, and comfort items, on either the base Challenger or the R/T. The standard engine on the base model was a 225 cubic inch (3.7 L) straight-6. The standard engine on the higher trim models was a 318 (5.2 L) V8 with a twobarrel carburetor. The 1972 grille and tail-light arrangement was carried over for the 1973 (and 1974) models, and the mandatory five mph bumpers were added. While the 225 cubic inch six-cylinder engine was dropped, (leaving just the two V-8s), all option lists otherwise were carry-overs from 1972. For 1974, the 340 (5.6 L) engine was replaced by a 360 cubic inch (5.9 L) version offering 245 hp (183 kW; 248 PS), but the pony car market had fallen off and production of Challengers ceased in late April 1974. The A/C was not available with the three-speed manual.

brakes and everything else. Everything is brand new now from top to bottom.” From model years 1970 to 1974, the first generation Dodge Challenger pony car was built using the Chrysler E platform in hardtop and convertible body styles, sharing major components with the Plymouth Barracuda. He doesn’t go to a lot of car shows because of his busy summer schedule, but enjoys the ones he does get to. “I try to get out to a couple of shows a year, some local shows. I don’t drive it too far because it isn’t that great on gas.” Considering it is close to 45 years old, it drives like a brand new car. “Actually, better than new. It was a lot of money and a lot of effort put into it. It is a labour of love.” Chrysler intended

the Challenger as the most potent pony car ever and like the less expensive Barracuda, it was available in a stagger-

ing number of trim and option levels, and with virtually every engine in Chrysler’s inventory.

Kevin Pauls

It can wait Whatever that phone call is about, it can wait until you’re safely parked. It’s the law.

Spirit of Christmas inspires giving By Murray Green

The Spirit of Christmas concert with Kevin Pauls and Friends inspires the spirit of giving and raising funds for the less fortunate in local Canadian communities and abroad. The Christmas concert will be held on Nov. 23 at 8 p.m. in the Grace Lutheran Church. This is the seventh annual tour of Spirit of Christmas with Kevin Pauls and Friends. From Eastern Ontario to Western Canada, from churches to world-class theatres this concert series has become a wonderful tradition to celebrate the season. The western tour features the rich tenor vocals of Jason Catron, founding member of the award-winning group Tenore; the multitalented Don Somerville who has toured and written songs with Grammy Award winning artists, and the founder and host of the annual event, Pauls. These star performers will be joined by other guests throughout the tour. Creator, singer/songwriter, Pauls inspires audiences both young and old, to welcome in the most wonderful time of the year. The Spirit of Christmas is a variety family show created for the holidays, filled with your favourite and familiar songs of the season. Songs like, “Baby Its Cold Outside,” “I’ll Be Home for Christmas,” “Mary Did You Know” and “O Holy Night” are included to remind you

of the familiar pine scents, mistletoe and holiday cheer. The Spirit of Christmas originally created as a onenight-only concert created by Pauls to perform, and share the stage with some of the best headliners and musical acts in the industry. That special evening, over a decade ago, became such a must-see event and has now become a seasonal family tradition in venues across Canada. Three years ago, a TV special was made of one of the shows, which instantly became an award-winning television event seen around the world in more than 18 countries. “Canada is filled with some of the most talented musicians and music artists in the industry. And throughout the tour, we will highlight very special guests as well. Our show is magical because we make sure that our audiences have such a memorable time that they keep coming back again and again,” said Pauls. “And this year, we are especially excited, as we will be partnering with local food bank charities, thanks to our collaboration with Faith Life Financial and their Action Teams. Not only will we be helping less fortunate children here in the local communities, but with our partnership with World Vision, we will also be helping out less fortunate children across the world. It’s the spirit of giving that keeps our show going, which is what is the most important part to all of us.”

Police charge man with stunting with vehicle in school fields Nov. 15

A male reported to Camrose Police that someone had attempted to set up a credit card in his name in Saskatoon. Police are investigating. Police were advised of a male in a Ford F150, who

ditions. Police attended a residence on Mt. Pleasant Drive and located the male who was clearly intoxicated. The 39-year-old was arrested for breaching his conditions and later released on a promise to appear.

Nov. 14

Police received a complaint that a 39-year-old male was breaching his alcohol conditions and causing a disturbance at a residence. Police attended and arrested the male who was out on numerous docu-

ments with no alcohol conditions. Members conducted a traffic stop and arrested a 21-year-old male for two outstanding domestic violence warrants out of Edmonton.

GIFT OF READING Lori Larsen, Camrose Booster Camrose and Area Adult Learning Council family literacy specialist, Karen Hills, holds a handful of books ready to be distributed to Christmas hampers for the 2018 Books Under The Tree Campaign.

The Camrose and Area Adult Learning Council’s Books Under the Tree Campaign is underway again. Residents are encouraged to donate a new storybook or a monetary donation, used to purchase new books, in order to supply every child whose family is receiving a Christmas hamper, with a book. Books or monetary donations are being accepted at the Camrose and Area Learning council office, located at #7-500051 Avenue up until Dec. 19. The highest priority for book donations is for ages six and under, however books for all ages up to 14 years are being accepted. “Reading with your child strengthens relationships, develops curiosity imagination and vocabulary,” explained Camrose and Area Adult Learning Council family literacy specialist, Karen Hills. “When you start with that base, you have such an advantage and it will follow you through life.” Hills also noted that literacy weaves through all aspects of family and community life through health, education, employment, social welfare and justice. It is the foundation for all other learning. Family literacy focuses on developing literacy within the family as a whole. It is the way families use literacy at home and within their communities. It occurs naturally in daily routines and helps children and adults get things done. Family literacy is not just about reading and writing. It is about developing stronger relationships between children and their parents and getting parents involved in their children’s education. It is about encouraging lifelong learning for children and adults and it is about building strong healthy communities. “That is why we want the community involved. It is going to make a difference in 10, 20 or 30 years.” Last year, the Books Under the Tree Campaign collected between 200 and 250 books, to be placed in Christmas hampers. Reading with a child will strengthen and secure the relationship and enhance a child’s ability to explore and learn. It can also increase the ability to visualize and imagine and plays a key role in understanding stories and learning to read. Reading will increase vocabulary and oral language and when done at home will enhance a child’s brain activity, regardless of household income. For more information on the Books Under the Tree Campaign or the Adult Learning Council, email famlit@ camroselearning.com or telephone 780-672-8754.

Sometimes pictures speak louder than words.

He asked the question “Should I move more of my advertising budget to social media? After all, the social media “experts” had nearly convinced this individual that “all smart money players” in business had moved their advertising budgets away from print. “Is this true?” He asked. This question gets asked a lot. It was asked ten years ago, five years ago and this time last year too. While we could offer you reams of data (in print or electronically, if you prefer) that clearly shows the readership of our own publications: The Camrose Booster, The Country Booster, and Super Booster is for all practical purposes identical to that of ten years ago, or that the purchasing power generated by a print advertising remains constant.

This is a snapshot of the Print Advertising that our company will deliver to consumers in and around Camrose this week. Two printing publications, 28 printed inserts, 374 pages of advertising and editorial. The “smart money” seems to think pretty highly of advertising in print.

Happy shopping!

Remembering Armistice Day Erna Lydia Storvick

FLAG PARADE

Murray Green, Camrose Booster A Parade of Flags marched at the Camrose branch of the Royal Canadian Legion’s Remembrance Day Service on Nov. 11 at the Camrose Regional Exhibition. The parade included Legion, fire department, army cadets and air cadet members at the Remembrance Day Service honouring the 100th anniversary of Armistice Day.

November 14, 1922 ~ November 14, 2018 Edna was born on November 14, 1922 to Lydia and John Gertsch on the family farm east of Bawlf. Erna and Edvin met in Bawlf. On December 1, 1943, Erna and Edvin were married; they had to wait thirteen years before Diane came to join their family. Erna spent most of her life at Bawlf until she moved into Camrose to live at Rosealta Lodge. In March 2018, Erna moved to Louise Jensen, Hawthorn Cottage until the time of her passing. Erna was well known for the flowers she had around and in her house. At one time, the number of house plants was thirty-six plus. She had a coffee table that was home to the most beautiful violets. If you had trouble growing a plant of any kind, you could give it to Erna and she could bring it back to life. She was always happy to visit with family and friends. Nieces and nephews often stopped for a visit, then later grandchildren and their friends could be seen stopping for a cookie or a glass of juice. Erna passed away peacefully with her family at her side on her 96th birthday. She is survived by her daughter Diane (Darrell) Albers of Camrose; grandchildren Ed (Tammy) of Bawlf, Rob (Kim) of Okotoks and Lynette (John) Snider of New Norway; greatgrandchildren Tia, Mariyah and Trey Albers, Colby and Ty Albers, and Cassandra and Julie Snider; brother-in-law Milton Mosand; and numerous nieces and nephews. Erna was predeceased by her husband Ed; parents John and Lydia Gertsch; sisters Lucy Reich, Alma Gunderson and Florence Mosand; brothers Freddie, John and Walter; and nephews David Mosand and Terry Gunderson. A funeral service will be held at 10:30 a.m. on Wednesday, November 21, 2018 from the Bawlf Lutheran Church with Rev. Calvin Skriver officiating. Interment will take place in the Bawlf Public Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions in Erna’s memory may be made to the Alberta Diabetes Foundation or the Canadian Cancer Society.

Are all Battle River Community Foundation funds the same?

No! The Foundation offers seven different kinds of funds, one of which can certainly be tailored to suit your personal philanthropic needs. The most general type is a “Community Fund” which allows the BRCF Grants Committee of the day to choose projects that address emerging needs throughout the area served.

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.

Jackson’s Huron Carole returns to Festival of Trees By Lori Larsen

Returning to the Festival of Trees at the Camrose Regional Exhibition for the second year to perform The Huron Carole on Sat., Nov. 24, is Canadian leg-

end actor, musician and activist, Tom Jackson. At the age of 69, the Calgary-based entertainer is in full swing of his over 40-year career in contemporary film, television and

music and is renowned for his warm, gentle and giving personality both on and off the stage. Jackson’s newly released two-disc, 21-track retrospective The Essential

Central Agencies Home of the Week

Wonderful Valleyview duplex PRICE REDUCTION

By Lori Larsen

The price has been reduced on this duplex in the amazing Valleyview subdivision that features walking trails, parks and playgrounds, all within the front door of this three-bedroom, twostorey home. A cozy, covered porch greets you as you approach the home, giving it charm and curb appeal. The interior of the home has been kept immaculate and has a bright, open concept with ninefoot ceilings and plenty of windows. The home has subtle colours and stylish flooring and has been maintained very well. A good-sized living room is the ideal spot to curl up in front of the window and enjoy a cup of tea. The kitchen features lovely cabinets with plenty of storage and an adjacent dinette which is perfect for family dinners. A garden door leads off to a private maintenance-free deck, overlooking your backyard. A two-piece powder room on the main floor is convenient for visitors.

Dalton Reum Retreat to the upper level of the home where there are two bedrooms and a private master suite and fourpiece bathroom. Having your own double-detached garage is just another perk of owning this property. With back alley access, you can park indoors and not have to worry about warming up your vehicle. Included in the purchase are the fridge, stove, built-in dishwasher and washer and dryer. Come see this home located at 2705 Valleyview Drive. Why throw money away to rent when you can own your own property at the reasonable price of $239,900. There will be an open house on Thursday, Nov. 22 from 3 until 5 p.m. or for a personal viewing, call Dalton Reum at: Central Agencies Inc. 4870-51 Street, Camrose 780-672-4495 Cell 780-781-7088

Tom Jackson shares his perspective through songs like the anti-war throwdown, “I’m Not Saying, I’m Just Saying,” and the environmental sonnet, “Blue Water”–evergreen anthems for the ages, two of Jackson’s personal favourites. “Doing this compilation was like opening up a trunk,” Jackson says. “It’s easy to lose focus; you might be looking for one thing and end up finding something else.” Jackson has also had a long line of successful runs in television, including roles on hit shows like North of 60, Shining Time Station, Star Trek: The Next Generation, Law & Order, Little Mosque on the Prairie, Street Legal, and Relic Hunter. He is no stranger to the big screen either with roles in movies that include Deadfall, Mee-Shee: The Water Giant, Grizzly Falls and an upcoming thriller opposite Liam Neeson. Outside of his busy career, Jackson’s extensive charitable work has benefitted people and communities for years. In particular, the long-running The Huron Carole Christmas concert tour has brought much needed support to Canadian food banks; plus multiple other initiatives benefitting disaster relief, estimating $200 million in combined cash/in-kind value for food banks and disaster relief raised to date. He is currently an Ambassador for the Red Cross, has been inducted as an Officer of the Order of Canada in 2000, and received the 2007 Juno Humanitarian Award, and

the Governor General’s Performing Arts Award for Lifetime Artistic Achievement, in 2014. Despite his gratitude for the many honours bestowed upon him, Jackson remains humble and down to earth and is notably a very genuine person.

Tom Jackson

“I’ve said many times that it’s not about the award, it’s about the reward. Anybody who gets one of these very prestigious accolades will ask themselves, ‘Why me? Why do I deserve this?’ I guarantee it,” said Jackson. With all that is going on in Jackson’s life and career, he admits most of it offers him an opportunity to create change. “I am very excited about that. And I am having as much fun now as ever.” Come out and enjoy the melodic tunes, quick wit and reflective stories of Tom Jackson, joined by Tom McKillip, Carly McKillip, Suzanne Levesque, Craig Bignell and Darren Savard, and celebrate the gift of the season.
