Camrose RCMP investigator Cst. E. S. Turgeon along with Victim Services Dog Lucy and Camrose Police Service Constable Kelly Bauer display items which you may consider donating at the Voluntary Charity Checkstop this Saturday.

On Saturday, December 1, between noon and 4 p.m., Camrose City Police and Camrose RCMP will be looking for you. While the visit won’t be mandatory, they are hoping you will stop by, regardless of the weather, on location on the east bound service road in front of Camrose Registry Ltd. Members of both organizations will be on site at the annual Voluntary Charity Checkstop. This year’s beneficiaries will be Camrose Victim Services Unit, which is noted for helping victims of crimes and tragedy in the Camrose area; The Open Door, which supports youth in times of desperation and need; and Camrose Women’s Shelter, which assists women affected by domestic violence. Donations of non-perishable food items, gift cards, cash, toys, toiletries, bedding, personal hygiene items and Christmas gifts suitable for infants through teens will be gratefully accepted by police on behalf of the beneficiary organizations.

Moose in a pear tree By Lori Larsen

Have some fun counting down 12 days of Christmas with the gang at The Open Door, while making the lives of youth at risk in our community a little better. Beginning Dec. 1, they will once again be presenting on The Open Door Facebook page and Instagram, the 12 Days of Christmas– ways to give initiative, featuring the talent of their very own team, including a special guest appearance by the beloved four-pawed member, Moose. “The idea for the 12 Days of Christmas came from requests we had from community members regarding specific items needed at this time of year,” explained Open Door executive director Jessica Hutton. “Each day, from Dec. 1 to Dec. 12, we will feature a different item we require (examples will be provided).” Community members wishing to participate by donating items of the 12 Days, are reminded to watch for the posts on Facebook or Instagram, then bring donations to The Open Door at Gateway Centre, Main Floor, 4825-51 Street. “We appreciate the community support so much throughout the year,” said Hutton. “Youth are our next generation and it is amazing to see the community response to the need.

CHEQUES! Small Business Cheques 7.5” x 3.25” plus stub, black ink, white paper, numbered Lori Larsen, Camrose Booster Moose is getting ready for The Open Door’s 12 Days of Christmas ways to give initiative.

“In May 2018, we grew our shelter spots from eight emergency and four transition to 12 emergency and six to eight transition beds. This was done out of extreme necessity and because of being consistently over capacity. This has obviously created a huge impact and significantly increased the need.” Besides the donations received for the 12 Days campaign, The Open Door welcomes any donations that can help fulfill the

emergent needs of youth who find themselves at risk. Monetary and gift card donations can be used to fill specific needs for clothing, personal hygiene items, single serving foods and other immediate necessities. Donations are also being accepted during the Voluntary Charity Checkstop to be held on Dec. 1, on location at 48 Avenue eastbound service road, in front of the Camrose License and Registry.

Double Thanksgiving, double happiness

One of the (many) benefits of being Canadian is that we get to experience two Thanksgiving weekends. We have our own Thanksgiving weekend in early October and then– through the miracle of modern communication–we also experience (second hand) American Thanksgiving in November. In recent years, we also get to experience Black Friday–an American invention that’s spread to Canadian businesses. I confess to having been less than thankful for all the extra Black Friday hype–right up until I got some fabulous bargains. What I have most appreciated in the past week are heartfelt Thanksgiving messages I’ve received from American friends and some email newsletters I follow. On the theory that thankfulness is always in season, here are a two messages that I especially appreciated. ***

From Vishen Lakhiani, founder of Mind Valley: “Gratitude, of course, is the single most scientifically proven practice for bliss…“Practicing gratitude has had such an impact on happiness boosts in our society that it’s getting major notice in research and scientific circles. “So far, the list of scientifically proven benefits for the practice of gratitude includes: Better sleep, More energy, Less anxiety, Less depression, Fewer headaches, More forgiving attitudes, More social connectivity. “Robert A. Emmons, PhD, and Michael McCullough, PhD conducted a study and found that simply writing down five things that you’re thankful for from the previous week can have as much as 25 per cent difference in happiness levels, when compared to writing five negative things down from the week. “Dr. Emmons conducted an additional study on gratitude in which people saw not only a greater gratitude boost, but a greater boost in their giving directly contributing to the happiness and gratitude of others. “In other words, gratitude is contagious.” ***

From Stephen Dinan, CEO of The Shift Network. “The greatest blessing for me this last year has been our little daughter Sienna, who’s blossomed into quite a personality in just 20 months. “Whether she’s pulling on her dancing shoes for a ‘party’ at 6 a.m. or cracking herself up and saying, ‘Sienna funny’...what I love most about being with her is the utter joy she brings to every moment, making each one special and magical. “That’s what happens when we see the world through the eyes of wonder, peering beyond the surface to the innocent, beautiful core. “The truth is that life is miraculous. We live on a little blue marble hurtling through space – our beautiful planet that has somehow created billions of diverse life forms... from creatures who fly in the air to those who navigate the depths of the ocean. “We’re blessed to be part of this enormously complex, intelligent species called Homo Sapiens. We’ve taken a long journey from tribal humans–through language, culture, technology and more–to arrive in a global community that can communicate instantly around the world. (This email alone will probably land in 170 countries!) “Yes, we’ve imperiled our future, but wow, look what we’ve created–from phones that let us talk across the world to cars that drive themselves to airplanes that let us see the gorgeous beauty of earth from the air.” His closing comment: “Let’s make magic together and build a world that’s filled with delight, opportunity, and adventure so that all the little Siennas (and big ones like us) can savour this beautiful home for generations to come.” These messages made me feel thankful to be alive at this time on the planet–with all our challenges and all our opportunities. Hope the messages do something nice for you too! ***

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. I’ll happily reply within one business day.

The Camrose Booster thanks you for your interest in the letters page and encourages your comments. Defining stories

At the Spirit of the Land conference at the Augustana Campus, we learned how our stories define us. Unfortunately, the current story we are told is that we need to fear and hate the “other”. We must destroy them before they destroy us. We must not let them into our country. Have we forgotten that a few short years ago those others were our parents and grandparents? When we focus on our differences we ignorantly sink into depravity and savagery. We are born ignorant, but it takes hard work to remain ignorant given the wealth of knowledge gained over the history of mankind and now available to almost everyone. We constantly repeat the errors of the past and ignore the solutions our ancestors came up with because we don’t know our history. What is happening now has happened before. If we don’t take the steps to avoid the descent into Fascism very soon, then God help our children and grandchildren. You may think I am overstating the case, but it is eerily like the ‘30s in Europe. I suggest that the current immigrant and refugee problem can be placed at the feet of the American government and its allies, including Canada, when our leaders carved up the middle east and interfered with central America, destabilizing the world order, resulting in the chaos we see today. I suggest the story we need to tell is that our genius lies in the human global brain. All the great works of humanity come from the collective work of us all. Every one of us is

important and contributes. The garbage collector and the artist each were participants with the scientists in putting a man on the moon. It is that specialization, which now is so complex that a destruction of our culture by a new dark age may doom us all. If there is no food in the grocery store, we will starve! Almost none of us could survive if we are forced revert to the culture of the past. I suggest that problems like the climate change issue and refugees can only be solved by the coordinated behavior of humans world-wide. Our leaders seem bent on preventing this. Together we are brilliant and can solve our problems, but time is running out. If we see each other as enemies, then we are fools bent on selfdestruction. God help us all. Harry Gaede, Camrose Dam Busters What defines a real leader? RAF’s legendary bombing mission to destroy Nazi Germany’s three heavily-defended, massive Ruhr Dams in May 1943 was a long way from Camrose and a long time ago. Depriving German industry of hydroelectric power for their war machine, military historians have estimated this successful mission by 617 Squadron shortened the Second World War by three or four months. At a time with up to a million civilian and military deaths monthly, the sacrifice of these hand-picked, highly experienced and decorated crews cannot be overstated. Of the mission’s 19 Lancaster four-engined bombers, eight failed to return.

“M” for Mother was piloted by Ft. Lt. John “Hoppy” Hopgood (DFC and Bar), a close and trusted friend of mission Commander Guy Gibson (VC, DFC and Bar, DSO and Bar). It was the second attack aircraft for the first and largest dam, the Mohne. The navigator was Ken Earnshaw from Ohaton. When our Edmonton or Ottawa Leaders claim to stand up for Albertans, their words ring hollow and lack conviction and logic–pipelines and carbon tax come to mind. Earnshaw proved his conviction with his life. In the 2015 book “M” for Mother by Jenny Elmes (relative of Hopgood), Ken Earnshaw is quoted on the night of the mission as admitting “given the risks, we’ll lose eight aircraft tonight”. They did and “M” for Mother was one. Surely in this city of 18,000, we can assemble the financial resources and creative expertise to proudly honour Earnshaw with commemorative signs at Ohaton—the least we can do for a real Alberta leader and hero. Earnshaw is featured on a wall at the Bashaw Legion, well worth the visit for the thrill of sensing the awe of the moment. Neil Leeson, Camrose Correction

In the Nov. 20 edition of the Camrose Booster in the letter to the editor entitled Climate Change the first paragraph should read. “All forms of military since the First World War including the atomic bomb for over 50 years. Where did all the radiation go?”

Lighting the way to remembering those who have passed By Lori Larsen

Remembering those who have passed can be especially emotional this time of year. To honour the lives of lost loved ones, friends and others, the Hospice Society of Camrose and District invites residents to join them for the Lights to Remember ceremony. It will be held on Nov. 28 from 7 until 8:30 p.m. at the Hospice office in the lower level of the Mirror Lake Centre in

Camrose (5415-49 Avenue, south side). Attendees are reminded to dress warmly for outdoor activities. “We join together for an evening of caroling, readings, and a candle lighting ceremony, all gathered around a lovely fire,” said Hospice program coordinator Bill Harder. As the event comes to a close, guests are invited to move indoors for refresh-

ments, stories, and conversation. “Any anniversary, holiday, birthday or other occasion can be a point in time where one’s grief is activated,” commented Harder. “It is especially poignant with Christmas and, in our culture, Christmas isn’t solely a church or Christianrelated function. It is a cultural aspect and there is a high expectation of family and friends gathering at Christmas. When one of

those family members or friends is deceased, then one’s sorrow is strongly activated. “This whole season for some people, can be a real struggle to step forward and continue to be able to navigate through and continue their sorrow in a healthy way.” Residents are also encouraged to sponsor a light on the Remembrance Tree, located in front of the Bill Fowler Information

Centre on 48th Avenue, in memory of a loved one. Use the secure server to make your gift online – www.camrosehospice.org. “What is beneficial (in times of loss) are meaningful rituals to give voice to the pain of that loss,” added Harder, explaining that events such as the Lights to Remember or Longest Night Service are events that the community is offering to help give that voice.

Ferintosh, AB Tuesday, December 11, 2018, 1:30 p.m. PROPOSED AGENDA

Can anyone be a Philanthropist?

ABSOLUTELY!

Philanthropy is a marvelous quality that we all have within us. It’s a generosity of spirit, a desire to help, and a firm belief that you can make a real difference in your community regardless of how much or how little you have to give. Keeley Popowich, philanthropist, has the spirit. She is shown in conversation with Blain Fowler, who is an Ambassador for The Battle River Community Foundation. Blain is a strong proponent of Reading University, a month-long, summer remedial reading program for children in Grades Two and Three who are reading below grade level, and a signature project of the Foundation. In Keeley’s words: “My three sons have participated in Camrose minor sports for the past thirteen years. The programs and teams, in which they have been involved, have been made possible though the generosity of our City, our County and individual residents. Because of this, it was important to me to find an organization that aligned with my desire to give back to the community. My son, Jake, was given the opportunity to attend Reading University four years ago. Until I

My regular monthly donation is specifically designated to support the Reading University Program. I know first hand what a difference it makes and hope that my small contribution will help keep this program operating for years to come!” The Battle River Community Foundation can help you fulfill your philanthropic dream – big or small – right here at home. We can help you make your dream a reality. Philanthropy resides in everyone, and together we can make it flourish right here in our own backyard. Contributions received before year end, will receive a charitable donation receipt that can be applied against your 2018 income taxes.

Senior’s Chat

Frailty hits seniors at various times By Camrose Seniors Coalition

We see a similar scenario being played out across the country. An elderly friend or family member isn’t doing well; they do not bounce back from injuries like they did before and new illnesses seem to make them more vulnerable than ever before. They become weaker and thinner. Your friend or family member is becoming more and more frail. Today in Canada, over one million people are medically frail. While older adults are vulnerable to frailty, just being older does not automatically make you frail. It’s more than just growing older, getting tired faster and moving more slowly. Unexplained weight loss and having little or no energy are two warning signals to look for. While there is no single clinical definition of frailty, according to the Merck Manual, frailty is “loss of physiologic reserve, which makes people susceptible to disability due to minor stresses.” Frail older adults are more likely to fall, have more medication errors and have extended hospital stays. People who are frail do not recover from injuries as quickly and can result in complications. The complications older adults experience can impact their quality and length of life. There are several tests that health professionals can use to screen for frailty. The Edmonton Frail Scale assesses ten different areas including mobility, nutrition and cognition. Dalhousie University’s Clinical Frailty Scale has people ranked on how active they are and able to complete daily living tasks. Assessing and identifying frailty can help people receive the proper care they need. Once proper care is given, older adults can age in place at home and be as independent for as long as possible. If you or a loved one is frail, there is much

Talk to us today about the benefits of pre-planning funeral arrangements The idea of advance funeral planning is one which many people would rather not think about. However, planning your own funeral is one of the kindest things you can do for your loved ones. At a time of grief, your family members will be spared the stress of making important, emotionally draining decisions. Pre-planning also ensures your final arrangements will be carried out according to your exact wishes, in a cost-sensitive manner. Call us today for more information about advance funeral planning or to arrange a no-obligation consultation with one of our directors.

you can do to help. Alberta Health Services recommends the following: Eating right. Proper nutrition is important. Food provides energy and prevents weight loss. A great option for meals in Camrose is Meals on Wheels, where hot, nutritious food is delivered right to your door. Staying active. Build muscle and balance through an exercise like Tai chi and resistance exercises. Walking is good–check with your doctor about how much and how often first. Staying connected. People who are frail are more likely to experience depression. Reducing isolation will help decrease depression so keep connected with friends and family. Keeping the mind active. Read, do puzzles and take classes to keep engaged. Learn a new card game, a new craft or a new language. Prevent falls. The Camrose Primary Care Network has a fall prevention program to help. Do the penguin walk. Monitoring medicines. If multiple medications are being taken, it’s important to make sure there are no side effects that can impact frailty. Planning for extra time. Be patient and be

generous with your time. Going out to appointments will take longer because of moving more slowly. Submitted by the Family Violence Action Society for the Camrose Seniors Coalition. For more information on the Seniors Coalition, call Maria or Margaret H. at 780-672-0141.

Ferguson leads St. Mary’s Hospital volunteers By Murray Green Time well spent

My four-year-old had his bag packed and was set for a morning at preschool. He turned to look at me, an expression of concern on his face, and told me that I could play with baby goggy, mommy goggy and big goggy (his three favourite stuffed doggies) while he was gone. I thanked him solemnly and then spent the morning imaging what exactly young children think their parents are doing while they are at school. My nine-year-old was also concerned about this at the start of the school year, since all three of my children would now be in school some of the time. She said, “What will you do when we aren’t here?” I told her that I was going to play with all of their toys and then I would master how to juggle. There’s a funny book we have called Grover stays up very, very late by Susan Rich Brooke. (Funny until one child imitated the book, that is.) Grover has his eyes on the clock to make sure he stays up very, very late to see how his mother spends her time once he goes to sleep. He imagines that his mother is having a party downstairs, sliding into home plate at a baseball game or going to a circus. Finally he creeps downstairs to find that his mother is…asleep in her chair in the living room. So much for fun and excitement. I didn’t tell my preschooler that I actually had a pretty busy morning planned. I was going to volunteer in his brother’s classroom, then head home for a quick ski, and maybe just maybe, if I was really lucky…have time to do the dishes. I know that seems like a lot to cram into two hours, but I did it. Sometimes I don’t know where to begin. Should a person go out for coffee (or in my case, a chai latte), or settle in with a good book? Run errands involving several stops without having to take children in and out of car seats? The answer seems to me, do some of all of that. The Comedy Network even has the slogan, “Time well wasted!” I guess that means we are allowed to just relax once in awhile. One thing I do know is that I usually approach a day with way more tasks on my to-do list than I can actually accomplish in one day. And every time, my favourite parts of the day are playing with my kids. The laundry may have gotten folded, but it was that half hour rolling snowmen or forming play dough creatures that mattered. My husband once had a co-worker who spent a whole weekend watching football because he had nothing else to do. He was bored. We are never bored in our house, there are always projects to finish on our straw bale home, grass to be mowed, snow to be moved, lunches to be packed, homework assistance required and so on. My husband and I sometimes say that there aren’t enough hours in the day; time is the single most precious commodity that we have. I discovered online that according to the American Time Use Survey, each work day we spend 7.6 hours sleeping, 8.8 hours working, 1.1 hours eating, and 1.1 hours doing chores around the house, leaving us with about five and a half hours for anything else we want to do, including time for relationships or caring for others. When we think about how little time we have, it can help us say no to activities that don’t mean much to us and to make the most of our free time. Before I knew it, those two hours of preschool were up and I was picking up my smiley preschooler. He immediately wanted to know if I had played with baby goggy, mommy goggy and big goggy. I told him that I hadn’t and he seemed surprised. A little later in the day, I asked why he had loaned his toys to me for the morning and he said, “In case you were sad.” I asked if he was ever sad or missed me while he was at preschool, and he said, “No, because I have Jesus in my heart.” I had mistaken his loaned toys as an idea for how to fill my time and he was actually trying to help with any separation anxiety I might be feeling. My astute little fella must have realized that these past few months have been a change for me as well. If I do ever feel low or at a loss for how to spend my time when my children are at school, if playing with their stuffies doesn’t help, I suppose I could still take up juggling…

Kendra Ferguson is the new volunteer and foundations coordinator at Covenant Health St. Mary’s Hospital, Camrose. “I want to ensure that patients receive the best care from the time they enter the hospital to the time when they leave,” said Kendra. “I’m originally from Lethbridge. I received my bachelors of health science in public health promotion from the University of Lethbridge in 2016. I was drawn to public health because it maintains upstream approach for early disease intervention and promotes holistic health promotion, and will decrease overall patients within the treatment system long term,” said Kendra, who started a month ago. While attending the U of L, she worked for the university’s sport and recreation services department. “This position allowed me to work in fitness and recreation project management and community development, helping me secure a job at the University of Alberta Augustana Campus as the fitness and recreation manager for the athletics department,” explained Kendra. “I worked in this role for a little over a year. My work there allowed me to get to know the Camrose community and work in

an area I am passionate about.” In addition to working at Augustana, she volunteered at St. Mary’s as a special project volunteer with the infection control practitioner on site, and she is currently still an active volunteer with Alberta Health Services. “I also sit on a few local committees in order to maintain relationships with other health and human services professionals. My volunteer experience within the hospital made it clear to me that St. Mary’s is the place I’d like to be, so when this position opened up I knew I had to go for it,” she revealed. “The part of the volunteer and foundations coor-

dinator position I am most excited about, is getting to know more members of the community and figuring out how our community can better serve St. Mary’s patients from the beginning of their stay to the end of their stay with us. “I am passionate about collaboration between multiple sectors and wish to evolve this role to make sure all members of the community are aware of current St. Mary’s projects, whether that be volunteer projects or current projects from our foundation’s board or ladies’ auxiliary,” said Kendra. The community partners play a key role in the success of St. Mary’s Hospital Foundation. “I would like to maintain the relationship that has been previously forged, however, I also look forward to building my own connections with our staff, patients, volunteers and support groups. “I’m working on some Christmas projects right now. Everything is exciting for me as I get to know everyone a little better. One thing I want to do more is to connect more students from Augustana to St. Mary’s. I also want to work more with the ladies’ auxiliary because they do so much for the hospital.”

Treasure Island appears on Lougheed stage

FIRST MEETING

Murray Green, Camrose Booster Jim Hawkins (Malcolm Guglich), right, meets Long John Silver (Angus Guglich) for the first time on Treasure Island. The two have a bit of a father and son relationship. By Murray Green

Our Lady of Mount Pleasant School drama students will be performing the exciting Ken Ludwig version of the Robert Louis Stevenson novel Treasure Island on Thursday, Dec. 6 at 7 p.m. in the Jeanne and Peter Lougheed Performing Arts Centre. It is a Ken Ludwig version of the classic Robert Louis Stevenson novel. “It is interpreted for a junior and high school. It is shorter than the traditional one and some of the adult content has been taken out. It still has plenty of action, but is more appealing to families,” explained OLMP drama teacher Desiree De Kock. The fast-paced action didn’t stop the students from taking on the challenge of this play. “It has a lot more choreography as far as fights and physical movement. It allows us to make better use of the stage compared to some of the previous shows we’ve done. We have multiple scenes such as the inn and the island,” she added. “It’s exciting because I have a lot of new drama students this year from Grades 9 and 10. They really seem to be enjoying it and it will be a fun show. I would like to have three shows, but we don’t have drama in the second semester because we are still in a fledgling program. Hopefully in the future.” The students have had

three months to prepare for the major production. “I’m really proud of my students. They make all of the props and make their own costumes. It’s going to be a great show.” This adventurous adaptation of Robert Louis Stevenson’s classic novel finds young Jim Hawkins (Malcolm Guglich) as he discovers a treasure map in a dead pirate’s sea-chest. Jim is led on an expedition across the ocean to recover a fortune in plundered gold. Fair winds and favorable seas soon give way to mutiny, greed and the evil shenanigans of a one-legged scoundrel named Long John Silver (Angus Guglich). Join Jim on an unforgettable adventure as he fights for his life and the lives of his friends in this legendary tale of piracy and heroism. The OLMP drama students are from Grade 9 to 11. “I don’t lose anyone as far as graduation, so it is a good sign for the future,” said De Kock. Twins Malcolm and Angus are also excited to be facing each other in the play in major roles. “Jim is on the biggest adventure of his life and the show questions good and bad. The character I play, Long John Silver, is an interesting one because even though he is a pirate and a villain, he could be seen as the hero. Sometimes flipping your understanding

gives you a different prospective of the characters and their motivations,” said Angus. “Treasure Island is an amazing show and is very different than what we did last year. It was a ’30s romantic comedy. This year, it is more of an action-packed adventure,” added Malcolm. “In this play, the action is in multiple areas, moving around a lot and it feels like a bigger playground.” Angus played the villain last year and again finds himself in that role. “Being the villain is intriguing. I’m not a villainous person, so it is odd and interesting at the same time. It’s challenging playing a role that isn’t you. I see the character as a person who I don’t want to be in the future,” said Angus. “The hardest part is seeing Malcolm as a son. Long John Silver plays a father role in Jim’s life, but there are trust issues.” Treasure Island has a cast of about 20, compared to 12 last year. “I see the results of students becoming better speakers and leaders, and it is absolutely magical. When I started out, I was surrounded by Drama 20 and 30 students. Now I’m seeing what I was like back then. I’m learning, but now I see how much they are learning,” said Angus. “As Grade 11 students, we are like Drama 30 students because we have

learned so much. Angus and I have taken over as far as being the senior members,” said Malcolm. “We have talked about becoming directors of one of these plays. It is great being a mentor.” The brothers have had their own mentor. “I have never had another teacher like Miss D. I’ve never had someone who cares this much about a subject in school. She adores the fine arts and that is clear in not only what she does here, but also in the community as well. If there is any way she can get her hands on fine arts, she will. I will be in Momma Mia! with her so that will be fun. She is clear

and cares, that’s what matters,” continued Angus. OLMP is hoping the community supports the show. “This is high school amateur theatre, but it is a great chance to see some new and amazing actors. You can see how much of the character they have developed. The community should see how inspirational these students can be,” said Malcolm. “It feels less and less like a high school production and more like a community production,” added Angus. Both students are thinking about becoming a teacher in the future. Perhaps even teaching drama.

Twas the Night Before Christmas By Murray Green

Everyone knows the story Twas the Night Before Christmas. But I don’t think you remember it the same way the D u f f leBa g T heatre members tell the story. The theatre group will be on the Jeanne and Peter Lougheed Performing Arts centre stage on

Sunday, Dec. 2 starting at 2 p.m. There is no better way to teach the spirit of giving and joys of the season, than to laugh along with DuffleBag Theatre’s unique adaptation of the classic holiday story, Twas the Night Before Christmas. Some of the main parts will be played by audience members, result-

ing in a spontaneous oneof-kind performance. The “nearly worldfamous” Duff leBag Theatre has been performing since 1992, starting at the London International Children’s Festival in London, Ontario. Now based in Toronto, Duff leBag performs over 600 shows a year, across Canada, the U.S. and internationally.

If the name Duff leBag Theatre rings a bell in your memory, then you will recall them visiting last year with the classic Peter Pan story. This family event is free to attend, but you must have a ticket. Pick up your tickets at the Lougheed Centre.

Advent concert held at Fridhem

By Murray Green

The concept of a concert in a country church has blossomed into an annual event. The seventh annual Advent Concert at Fridhem Church is set for the First Sunday of Advent, Dec. 2 at 7 p.m. Reflections of Hope, a Central Alberta ensemble, will be leading the music with both Advent and Christmas songs. They will be featuring various vocal and instrumental arrangements in both traditional and modern styles. “Making music with my daughters, Brianna and Allison, is a wonderful thing,” said Tamara Thomas of Reflections of Hope. “Adding the talents of Joseph, Tress and Joel helps us add to our style and repertoire. We are thrilled to bring this special concert, to Concert in a Country Church at Fridhem. We hope you enjoy it.” Joseph Hackett added his comment, “I was born in Ontario, then grew up on the lovely island of Barbados and moved back to Canada to get an education. Music has always been a source of comfort, healing and a way of communicating for me. I love to sing. While at college, I was fortunate to have been roommates with a great guitarist and songwriter. His dedication, raw talent, and creativeness inspired me to pick up the guitar.” The concert will feature Gwynne musician Tress Gibson. “I am blessed to have enjoyed the music of my great-grandparents, my grandparents and my parents and making music myself with piano and violin especially.” Joel Brousson said, “From a young age, I have enjoyed playing cello and singing. Through high school and into university, music was a part of my life. Aside from music, helping people in crisis situations is a huge part of my life. Music and sharing the peace I feel through playing and singing with others.” There will be a freewill offering to thank the musicians. To get to the church, take Highway 21 to Township Road 440 just south of Ferintosh. Go east on Township Road 440 for about four kilometres to the stop sign. Continue east. Fridhem Church is on the right about one kilometre past the stop sign.

A Christmas Carol retold by Churchmice Players By Murray Green

It’s a Canadian tradition to listen to the story of A Christmas Carol during the holidays. This year, treat yourself to a live version of the old story featuring Ebenezer Scrooge, a mean-spirited, miserly, unloved old man. “It is based on the traditional movie with Alastair Sim (a 1951 movie based on Charles Dicken’s 1843 classic book). I go to that version for inspiration, but I also like the modern references like the Muppet Christmas Carol and Scrooged,” said director Bradley Moshuk. “We have ghosts, but it is not a ghost story. It is a Christmas story. I want people to leave feeling good and in the Christmas mood after seeing a man’s redemption.” The Churchmice Players will be performing seven shows at the Bailey Theatre beginning on Nov. 30 at 7:30 p.m. Dinner theatres will be held on Dec. 1, 6, 7 and 8 with dinner at 6 p.m. and show starting at 7:30 p.m. Two matinees are scheduled for Dec. 2 and 8, at 2 p.m. “Over the years, we have done Christmas shows to celebrate the season, but to me A Christmas Carol is the most iconic. We all grew up with the story on Christmas Eve or Christmas Day and it meant Christmas,” said Bradley on why he chose the popular play. “When I heard the Churchmice were going to do the play, I wanted to audition for Scrooge. I love the Alastair Sim version as well,” said Kevin Schole, who plays Scrooge. Imag ine several ghosts, a despondent assistant, cheerful nephew and a lame little boy transforming Ebenezer into a worthy human being and saving his soul during the

course of just one Christmas Eve night. It can happen. The Churchmice Players feature a local cast of about 20 extremely talented performers as they bring the classic tale to life for the community. “It’s not the same grand scale as some of the musicals that we have done. But, it is a large amount of people from the age of five to seniors,” said Bradley. “We have a wide range of Churchmice veterans to newcomers to the theatre. It is always good to bring an infusion of new talent and new vision.” A few Churchmice members are doing double duty with the Christmas production and Momma Mia! that is running in February. “We just have to respect boundaries. We are on now and this production comes first. The director of Momma Mia! are neighbours, so we respect each other and we have constant communication.” Bradley is often on stage, rather than directing. “Sometimes the actors get annoyed with me because I show more passion about their part than they do. I’m excited about this play.” Bradley is planning on having carollers sing Christmas songs before and as the set changes to keep the energy going. “I have never had a leading role in a major production before. I’ve had supporting roles and worked with Infinite Imagination, but I felt ready to do it and for people my age there are not a lot of leading roles,” said Kevin. “I thought this is my one chance. It was daunting at first, but I’m happy with the way it is going.” The Churchmice Players encourages family members to enjoy theatre together in local productions.

Nordlys Festival celebrates a decade By Lori Larsen

This year will mark the 10th anniversary of Camrose’s Nordlys Film and Arts Festival. Along with celebrating a decade of providing an enjoyable experience to Camrose and area, the Festival will be showcasing another great lineup of entertainment during the Family Day weekend, Feb. 15 through 17, 2019 at the Bailey Theatre. The weekend kicks off with the opening reception on Friday, Feb. 17 beginning at 6 p.m. followed by the first film of the Festival, Maudie, starring Sally Hawkins and

Ethan Hawke. Attendees will have the opportunity to meet Mary Sexton, the producer of Maudie, who will be available for a question and answer session. Maudie is the mostly true story of Nova Scotia artist Maud Lewis. Maud suffered from juvenile arthritis, a very painful and crippling condition. Rejected and demeaned by her family, Maud realized she would need to make her own way so, despite her physical frailty, she took a job as housekeeper for the curmudgeonly fishmonger, Everett Lewis. So began the unlikely, and at times

harrowing, love story of Everett and Maud. Despite her hardscrabble life, Maud found beauty and joy in the world around her which she expressed through her art. Pictures she sold for pennies during her lifetime have come to command six figures. Though now best known for her art, it is Maud’s indomitable spirit and the relationship between Maud and Everett that are the heart of this beautiful, award-winning movie. The Festival will feature nine more films over the weekend including: Loveless (Russia, 2017), This Mountain Life (Can-

ada, 2018) and The Divine Order (Switzerland, 2017). On Saturday, Feb. 16, attendees can look forward to a concert by the Blake Reid Band, the subjects of Saturday night’s documentary film entitled No Roads In. Special filmmaker guests will be in attendance for this as well as some of the other films. “Nordlys’ predecessor, the Pretty Hill Film Festival, began 20 years ago as a family movie-watching weekend that grew and grew as more friends joined in,” explained Nordlys representative Gail Stolee. “Today, Nordlys is like a big

friends-and-family reunion where friends old and new are always welcome.” Come for a weekend filled with classic entertainment, great conversation, a chance to socialize in the wonderful ambience of the Bailey Theatre and a tradition that has grown with time. For more information on this year’s Festival or the Nordlys Film and Arts Festival, visit them on Facebook or at the Nordlys website www.nordlys festival.com. Tickets and festival passes will be on sale beginning Dec. 1.

Festival needs help By Lori Larsen

The Camrose and District Music Festival has been bringing talent and guests to Camrose, since it was established in 1982, to promote and appreciate music, speech arts and dance. Unfortunately, due to a lack of board members and dwindling numbers of volunteers for the actual event, the Festival is at risk of dissolution. “The Festival encourages amateurs to participate and perform in a friendly, workshop-like environment, honing skills and leading towards further personal growth and excellence in the fine arts,” noted festival board member Nansee Hughes. “However, the Camrose and District Music Festival is experiencing some troubled times. We are desperately seeking to fill five positions on our board including fundraising coordinator, scheduling coordinator, facilities coordinator, recording secretary and publicity coordinator.” Hughes indicated that should the positions not be filled by the new year, the board may have to make the decision to dissolve the Festival. “While we acknowledge that the loss of the festival will be great to the community, we cannot continue to run the festival shorthanded. We need the help of community to keep it running.” The decision to dissolve the Festival, should the positions not be filled, is the result of retiring board members and a lack of new incoming members and volunteers for festival week (tentatively scheduled for April 8 to 12, with the grand concert on April 16). “With careful thought, we will weigh the options available to us should we not fill the board and volunteer commitments by our board meeting on Nov. 28th,” said board vice-president, Cathie Johnson. “The possible closing of a chapter is a painful experience. We know it is especially difficult for those involved whether as participants, teachers, parents, or our beloved audience.” For further information or to volunteer on the board or during the festival week, contact Nansee Hughes at 780-781-0342 or Katelyn Kelly at 780-608-4546.

you and your rea

The Climate Keeps Changing Regardless of your opinions on the hot topic of climate change, as a member of a Rural Electrification Association (REA) you know the climate around rural electric co-ops has changed and continues to change. Some changes have been positive and others detrimental to the long-term viability of REAs. When the Alberta Government encouraged the establishment of REAs, they began popping up all over rural Alberta – 381 REAs began operating from 1947 and on through the ‘60s.

The times were changing

From rock and roll to mini-skirts, the 1960s were a time of change and the end of an era for REAs. Growth of REAs stopped by the end of the decade as abruptly as it began. Suddenly, disco was popular, REAs began to sell, and the REA world was concerned with staying alive. One hundred sixty-six REAs sold during the 1980s. The electricity industry became more complex, members’ lives became busier, and finding volunteers for boards was like trying to find Waldo.

Strength in Numbers

In the 80s, as “where’s Waldo” became a common phrase, some REAs chose amalgamation as an alternative to selling out. Twenty-five REAs recognized the dangers of the changing climate in which they were operating and chose to amalgamate. Their actions protected their REAs and equipped them to be viable into the future. They recognized the benefit of strength in numbers and were able to pool resources to offer their members even better service. The climate had changed but they responded proactively to address the threats and opportunities. The World Economic Forum recently published an article about how farmers in Sicily adapted to climate change. They grew lemons and oranges for generations, but global warming created alterations in the weather and temperatures that affected growing conditions. Instead of clinging to the

old tentacles of history and refusing to accept change, these farmers began to introduce other types of crops. Soon, they were growing mangoes and papayas in the former lemon groves. They adapted – they looked for options and seized opportunities.

REAs continue to evolve

Like those farmers, REAs and the AFREA continue to adapt, consider options, and seize opportunities. Our response to change is more important today than at any other time in the last 60 years. The climate for REAs continues to shift. Climate change discussions are common place and provincial and federal climate change policies are triggering changes within the REA world. Legislative change, alternative energy, community generation, micro-generation, and a capacity market are just a few of the changes REAs and their members face in 2018 and beyond. Change cannot be ignored. It will not go away. As history shows, the pace of change only increases. We must always be open to ways to adapt and thrive within the changing climate of rural Alberta and the electricity distribution industry.

Aquatic Centre renovations experience unforeseen issue By Lori Larsen

As might be expected with an older facility, the Camrose Aquatic Centre renovation and expansion project has run into some concerns regarding the stability of the interior structure that has resulted in city council approving (during a Nov. 14 special meeting) an additional $500,000 contingency fund for the project. Up until early October, the project was on time and on budget. “In early September, Clarke Builders (project contractor) moved indoors, while continuing the outdoor work,” said City of Camrose Community Services general manager, Ryan Poole. “They started doing planned demolition work indoors, such as tearing down walls.” Poole further explained that during this work, they (Clarke) discovered rust on a couple of hidden metal brackets (shoes) that hold up main wooden beams for the roof structure and became concerned, for safety reasons, about continuing demolition that could disturb the beams. City administration consulted with the engineering firm that helped design some of the structure of renovations and expansion and discovered the only company capable of testing the wood beams and any supports that hold wood beams in place was out of the East Coast of Canada. Wood Research Design (WRD) was brought out to begin the testing. “In the second half of October and first half of November, WRD tested numerous beam connections and brackets that all

play a part in holding the roof structure in place,” explained Poole. “Fortunately, Clarke Builders still had enough exterior work to keep them going up until about the second week of November, before they actually would have had to connect the interior and exterior together. But by the end of the second week of November, everything came to a standstill until the testing was complete.” Presently, WRD is designing and installing shoring to temporarily support the roof so they can finish their testing. “During the third week of November, the project moved ahead with further demolition and testing which also gave Clarke Builders the ability to continue forward with demolishing the west wall in order to tie in the two buildings.” During the original planning and designing of the Aquatic Centre renovation and expansion project, Clarke Builders and BR 2 Architecture were fairly confident, barring any major issues, that a $ 500,000 contingency would be sufficient for the project. Poole indicated, however, that as a result of this recent structural issue, the testing of the structure and the work to complete the temporary supports, along with a few small additions and additional demolition, the original $500,000 contingency has been used. “Council approved an additional $500,000 contingency and recognize that once all the testing is done, the engineer-

ing can move forward to determine what repairs are needed above and beyond what we have already planned. If it is something of a large scale expense, it may have to come back to council for a fully revamped budget.” As for a time frame on the project, Poole reported that it will depend on what they find when they are finished the testing, which he estimates should happen within the next month. “Until it is determined what needs to happen with

The Camrose Connector bus has seen a steady incline in the number of riders taking advantage of the service offered through Red Arrow, administered by the City of Camrose since it began in September of this year. The Connector is a 22-seat inter-city bus that runs between Edmonton and Camrose, funded by the Provincial government. “Between September and October, the Camrose Connector has had about 711 rides and it has shown an increase monthly,” said City of Camrose transit program administrator Nicole Bouillon. City of Camrose infrastructure and transit program coordinator, Kirsten Freeborn remarked that the Connector ridership has exceeded everybody’s expectations in the first two months. “We are seeing a really positive response to the Connector.

Winter Car Care guide

Winter is here! It’s time to get your vehicles ready!

Fitzgerald recalls teenage memories By Murray Green

Bob Fitzgerald of Camrose brought back a lot of memories from when he was a 17-year-old teenager, when he found a similar car to one he once owned. His 1954 Ford Skyliner with a glass top is a little nicer than the one he previously owned. “I bought the car the way it was. I put new radial tires on it and that is about all I’ve done to it in 14 years,” said Bob. “It is an original car. It doesn’t have power brakes or steering. It’s not hot rod at all. The mileage says 92,000 miles, but it was restored 25 years ago, so I’m not certain if the odometer has gone around before or not.” In older cars when the odometer went past 99,999, it started over at zero. “Back in the ‘70s the car underwent a full frame off restoration. Since then it has been kept as original as possible with the same paint. It was kept in a shed, so it doesn’t have any rust on it,” said Bob. One day his friend John Kehoe went to Reynolds Museum in Wetaskiwin for a car show. There he met a guy from Coleman, who was the previous owner of car. “John brought the information back to me and I phoned him that weekend. I told him I wanted to buy his car, but it was back in Coleman where he was from. He listed it in an auto booklet, so I didn’t see the car. I bought it anyway.” He took a major leap

GLASS TOP

Murray Green, Camrose Booster Bob Fitzgerald, of Camrose, found a 1954 Ford Skyliner similar to one he owned when he was in high school. This car was an even better model that featured a glass top for site-seeing.

of faith and bought it sight unseen with a generous down payment to secure the deal. It was an original that had all of its original components. Bob has owned the car for 14 years, since 2004. “I was searching for a Victoria, a similar model, because of my history of owning a Victoria with a flathead motor before. Some were equipped

FUN FACTS

For 1954 the Crestline was updated with minor styling and trim changes. Fordor Sedan and Skyliner versions were added. New 223 CID straight-six and 239 CID overhead valve V8 engines were offered. The Ford Crestline Skyliner is an automobile that was built by Ford featuring a two door hardtop body style with an integrated acrylic glass panel over the front seating area. Part of the 1954 American Ford Crestline range, it boasted a freshness of view through the green-tinted panel. A hardtop is a rigid form of automobile roof, which for modern cars is typically constructed from metal. A hardtop roof can be either fixed (not removable), detachable for separate storing or retractable within the vehicle itself. Bob’s version has options with a Coronado trunk lid and a Delta wing on the front hood. Both are rare features.

with the unique plexi-glass roofs that gave the cars an unusual transparent roof without the windy problems of open air convertibles. “It’s an American car, so it has the 239 motor with overhead valve. I was looking for a car like this because when I was 17, I had a car similar to this. It took me about 20 years to find another one. My original was Canadian made with a regular two-door hard top.” The glass top was the start of the sky roofs that are popular in vehicles today. “They were a little too hot, that’s why they quit making them,” Bob revealed. “I have a curtain that I snap in on top, so when I’m travelling quite a distance, I can cut out some of the direct sun.” It has a snap-in headliner cover that will shield the passengers from too much sun that would bake them in their seats. “It provides shade like an umbrella in the car,” said Bob. “The glass top is fairly rare, you don’t see very many around. In 1954, it

was the first year of the glass top and they only made this model for three years,” added Bob. A total of 13,000 were made in 1954, 2,000 in 1955 and only 603 in 1956. “I like to go to as many

car shows as I can. I like to talk to different people. I find it fairly interesting,” he said. Bob won a trophy at the Bittern Lake car show for his prized possession.

Winter On The Road Clear snow before you go By Lori Larsen

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

We’ve all experienced it, driving down the road when a large hunk of snow or ice falls off the vehicle in front of us causing a very dangerous situation. Completely clearing snow and ice from your vehicle before heading out on the road will not only prevent the possibility of debris falling off your vehicle and causing an accident or damaging other vehicles but may save you from receiving a traffic violation.

Here, at Quick Lane, we understand it’s a busy time of year. Count on our skilled service professionals to get you back on the road safely, and as quickly as possible.

Tips to clear

Plan ahead by giving yourself enough time to properly clear away snow and ice from your vehicle. Relying on your defrost and windshield wipers while you operate your vehicle is neither wise nor safe. Turn on your front and rear defrosters on your vehicle before beginning to clear away snow or ice. Do not pull on frozen or stuck windshield wipers. Doing so could damage them. Use an ice scraper to chip away at the ice and give the car defroster time to do its job. Some people opt for extending their windshield wipers up and away from the windshield while the vehicle is not in use during snow falls to prevent them from being stuck or frozen under the snow. Never pour hot water on ice-cold glass; doing so could cause the glass to break. Use a snow brush designed for vehicles. Using brooms, shovels or other items can scratch and damage your vehicle. Start from the top, clearing snow from the roof and working your way down. Remember, snow or ice could come loose and fall off any part of your vehicle while in operation, and could cause damage to other vehicles/property– or worse an accident. You could be held liable for any debris or items that fall off your vehicle. Commercial-grade deicing sprays can make the job faster and easier. Using lock de-icer or a bit of hand sanitizer may help thaw a frozen vehicle door lock. With the rise and fall of temperatures in Alberta, always ensure your windshield wiper fluid is topped up and, in the winter, be sure to use windshield wiper fluid designed for colder temperatures.

County enters fleet management contract By Murray Green

Camrose County will be entering into an agreement with Enterprise Fleet Management for the supply and management of four

half-ton crew trucks, three half-ton manager trucks and a one-ton truck for the public works department, a half-ton manager’s truck, four one-ton trucks

for the agricultural services department, one halfton manager’s truck for the landfill and two SUV units for the administration department at a total cost of $178,487. “Objectives of the program are: Enterprise Fleet Management’s proposal is to save County resources and budget dollars through a managed vehicle program. It allows the County to use the open end lease as a funding mechanism, allowing the County to acquire additional vehicles while avoiding a large capital budget outlay,” said administrator Paul King. It establishes a proactive replacement plan that maximizes potential equity at time of resale, reduces operational expenses, and

increases safety and performance of the fleet. “It would implement a pilot program by replacing an approved amount of current fleet units. The County receives flexibility of ownership, as well as net equity from sale at time of disposal. The benefits to the County include partnering with Enterprise Fleet Management so that Camrose County can reduce maintenance costs by 90 per cent or more, and fuel costs by 15 to 20 per cent,” said Paul. By shifting from reactively replacing inoperable vehicles to planning vehicle purchases, the County will be able to replace its current fleet within a flexible term and significantly reduce the fleet budget. Councilor Greg Gil-

lespie moved to enter into the contract because it should reduce overall fuel spent through more fuel efficient vehicles, reduce maintenance costs and downtime with new units. “We need to monitor the damage with bumps and scratches and have a reporting system in place, so we know the condition of the vehicles,” said councillor Trevor Miller. The starting point of replacing vehicles will begin in the spring. “What happens if we sell off the fleet and the contract goes sideways? ” asked councillor Brian Willoughby. Administrator Paul said that money will be set aside in case they have to buy vehicles after the lease has lapsed.

Alberta is mandating training for new commercial drivers and strengthening safety requirements for commercial carriers to enhance public safety. Following consultation with key industry stakeholders and Albertans, the Government of Alberta will implement mandatory entry-level training for new Class 1 and Class 2 commercial drivers in the spring. Along with the compulsory training, more stringent safety requirements for new commercial truck and bus companies will be in place. Mandatory training for new commercial drivers will result in safer, more highly skilled drivers working in the truck and bus industries. New safety requirements will ensure startup trucking companies fully meet compliance and safety standards before they begin operating on Alberta roads. “We are advancing safety standards in our commercial driving industries to enhance road safety, not just in Alberta, but across the continent, as commercial driv-

A night on the town supporting the Stollery By Lori Larsen

Roaming the beautiful streets of Downtown Camrose, ducking in and out of shops, sharing laughs and the company of good friends…what more could a person ask for, except maybe doing it all in the name of a good cause. For the past five years, a group of Camrosians have come together for a fun night out of shopping and visiting prior to Christmas, organized by Trina Harrison. This year, the fun outing took on a different and significant flare when members of the Camrose Stollery Women’s Network got on board to raise money for the Stollery Women’s Network Giving Comfort Campaign. On Thursday, Nov. 15, the group of ladies, wallets in hand, met at a Downtown Camrose business on Main Street at around 7 p.m. to begin their night out. “We wrapped the evening up at the Hart House with some visiting,” smiled Stollery Women’s Network member Chella Ross. “We are extremely proud to announce we raised $1,275 for the Stollery Women’s Network.” Not to mention they scored some great purchases while enjoying a night out for themselves, but more importantly, for the sake of others in need.

NIGHT ON THE TOWN

Submitted Enjoying a night out on the town for a good cause and supporting Camrose Stollery Women’s Network are: Alexis Anderson, Kim Wiebe, Trina Harrison, Heather Zarski, Lori Christianson, Lacey Flemming, Megan Caldwell, Melanie Poole, Erika Hieberg and Britta Bode.

ers travel across Canada and North America. We’ve worked with our industry stakeholders to make these changes with their support and we are pleased to be moving forward to put them in place,” said Brian Mason, Alberta Minister of Transportation. “The AMTA and industry have developed and delivered training over the years that was optional.

The announcement of mandatory entry-level training will ensure the industry has the fundamental tools to operate on public roadways by establishing a benchmark of required education for commercial drivers and carriers,” said Chris Nash, president, Alberta Motor Transport Association. The training and operating requirements will take effect in Alberta on March 1, 2019. Temporary Safety Fitness Certificates will no longer be issued as of Jan. 1, 2019. Alberta’s Mandatory Entry Level Training Program for drivers seeking a Class 1 or Class 2 licence will include standardized curriculum taught in all driver training schools. Specified hours of training required in-class, in-yard and in-vehicle. Enhanced knowledge and road tests. Drivers who obtain a Class 1 or Class 2 licence between today and March 1, 2019 will be required to re-take the new enhanced knowledge and road test (at government expense), when it becomes available in March. New requirements for commercial carriers will include full compliance documentation when applying for a Safety Fitness Certificate starting Jan. 1, 2019. A mandatory safety and compliance course and knowledge test before beginning operations. Safety Fitness Certificates must be renewed every three years. There are more than 25,000 commercial carriers operating more than 150,000 vehicles in Alberta.

Vision Credit Union steps up to support STARS’ fleet renewal Submitted

Vision Credit Union has announced it is joining the fight for life by pledging $100,000 over five years towards STARS’ fleet renewal campaign. Director Ernie Duchscherer presented STARS founder, Dr. Greg Powell, with

a cheque at the 25th annual Friends of STARS Dine and Dance event in Camrose. “We are honoured to support STARS in their efforts to replace their fleet,” said Vision CEO Steve Friend. “With branches throughout Alberta, our members truly appreciate knowing

that in emergency situations, STARS is there. We challenge all other financial institutions to do the same.” “Thank you so much to Vision Credit Union for its generous gift and for being one of the first fleet renewal supporters,” said Andrea Robertson, presi-

dent and CEO, STARS. “This gift is very special to us as we raise funds to purchase nine new helicopters to support our fight for life across Western Canada. The new fleet is an investment in our future, helping us continue to provide critical care services for our

children, grandchildren and beyond.” Vision Credit Union’s community investment program supports worthwhile organizations that are important to our members. Several staff members sit on the Camrose Friends of STARS board.

The streets and shops of Downtown Camrose are getting into the spirit of the season with wonderfully decorated windows, storefronts and interiors and taking a stroll in the Downtown zone really can put a smile on your face. In an effort to encourage a festive ambience, Downtown Camrose Developments is having it’s first Christmas Decorating Contest in Downtown Camrose. “The businesses and merchants already create a magical atmosphere this time of year,” said Downtown Camrose executive director, Bettyann Skagen. “The decorating contest is an opportunity to build on the fun and excitement that is already being created and get everyone involved.” The contest is open to all members of Downtown Camrose and the guidelines allow for a business or merchant that does not have a window front, but is down the hall or downstairs of the building where they are located. “We have a team of five judges who are going to have a fun time visiting each of the businesses and merchants who registered.” The judges consist of City of Camrose deputy manager Kim Isaac, Tourism Camrose executive

director Jennifer Filip, Hospice Society of Camrose program coordinator Bill Harder, Camrose and District Chamber of Commerce executive director Sharon Anderson and Downtown Camrose executive director Bettyann Skagen. Judging will take place from Dec. 3 to 7. “We plan on having a lot of fun with this,” commented Skagen. “We may even get Bill (Harder) singing carols. “This contest is about having fun, and getting the opportunity to meet new people. One of the businesses who registered called me yesterday and said, ‘I don’t even care about the main prize, the fun and excitement that is being generated in our office is amazing and worth so much more than the prize. It is wonderful to be participating in the contest, seeing and talking to other businesses about what they’re doing.’ The sense of community is strong in Downtown Camrose.” Make the trip to Downtown Camrose and don’t forget to bring along your Stamp Around Downtown Camrose 2018 booklet. “I encourage the general public to visit Downtown Camrose, take in the experience and tell the businesses and merchants how awesome their decorations are,” urged Skagen.

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.

T he Aug usta na Vikings swept the Briercrest Clippers in Saskatchewan by winning 8-4 and 6-0, Nov. 16 and 17. Cody Fiala led the charge on the frozen water against the Clippers with three goals. Adam Osczevski collected two tallies and single markers came off the sticks of Evan Warmington, Carter Danczak and Cody Young. Augustana was even 1-1 after the opening period, but took control in the middle frame with four tallies. Goalie Curtis Skip stopped 20 of 24 shots for the win. Augustana fired 44 at the Briercrest net. In the rematch, Skip stopped everything thrown at him to record a shut out. He faced 18 shots, while the Vikings recorded 46 shots. The Vikings had six different goal scorers including four again in the middle frame. Ben Lanfermann, Fiala, Logan Sproule, Danczak, Travis Mayan and Young were given credit for the goals.

Kodiaks battle Pontiacs, referees By Murray Green

The Camrose Kodiaks played well for two periods against the Bonnyville Pontiacs, but were on the wrong end of a 6-1 score on Nov. 20. Carson Kurylo started the scoring for the Kodiaks, but Bonnyville replied before the first period ended. The Pontiacs added the winner in the middle of the second frame. “I think we worried too much about the extra curricular stuff instead of just playing hockey. We got a little undisciplined and took too many penalties that hurt us. That won’t happen again,” Kyler Kupka admitted about his own penalties. A steady parade to the penalty box killed any momentum the Kodiaks had. In fact, Camrose was accessed two solo fighting majors to leave them both shorthanded and puzzled. “We have to forget about it and move on. We need to make sure we win the games we need to win. The Mustangs are only two points behind us, so we have to beat them.” A thin bench after several game misconducts allowed Bonnyville to crack up the offence with four tallies in the third. Goalie Roddy Ross was kept busy by stopping 45 of 51 shots he faced. Camrose fired 20 shots on the Bonnyville net. Camrose played better as the game wore on against

the Canmore Eagles on Nov. 18. The Kodiaks scored twice in the first period and went on to win 7-2. “The team has been playing great lately, so that helps my individual success as well. I’ve been feeling great out there lately,” said forward Kyler. Kurylo and Kupka started the scoring in another penalty-filled contest. Camrose took advantage of the power plays they were handed by collecting five goals with an extra man. “Scoring is a big part of game, although I like to play hard on both sides of the puck,” added Kyler. Jacob Kendall and Dylan Williamson scored to sandwich a Canmore tally to put the Kodiaks up 4-1 after 40 minutes. In the third, Zach Vinnell, McKenzie Welke and Cam McAdam scored to put the game out of reach. Welke’s tally was a short-handed marker, while the other two were on the power play. Goalie Griffin Bowerman turned away 32 of 35 shots. Camrose had 32 shots on goal. “We have gelled and (coach) Boris has believed in us since day one. He has us believing in ourselves and it has shown on the ice,” said Kyler, who played his minor hockey in Camrose. “We have to focus on our play and everything else will take care of itself. We have a

good attitude and everyone is buying into the system. We have a great group of guys,” said Kyler, who was named the star of the week in the Alberta Junior Hockey League. “This is the most I’ve seen the guys buy in during my three years here. Everyone is playing for each other and the logo.” The Kodiaks had 12 straight games (before the Bonnyville game) of allowing three or fewer goals in a game, proof that the players are playing as a unit defensively. After an even first two periods, Camrose pulled away to tame the Calgary Mustangs 5-3 on Nov. 16. Kupka scored twice to lead the Kodiaks on offence. Williamson and Kupka collected tallies in the opening period and led 2-1 after 20 minutes. Ethan Heidepriem put the Kodiaks up 3-1 before the horses raced back with two of their own. Vinnell and Kupka scored in the third to give Camrose the two points. Ross stopped 35 of 38 shots for the win in net. Camrose also had 38 shots on the Mustangs’ 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.
