Wednesday, September 25, 2019 National Tree Day serves as a celebration for all Canadians to appreciate the great benefits that trees provide us – clean air, wildlife habitat, reducing energy demand and connecting with nature. A key corporate supporter of National Tree Day across Canada, and certainly right here in Camrose, is Home Hardware. This Canadian company has planted nearly 27,000 trees in school yards and public green spaces. In Camrose, Hauser Home Hardware Building Centre will fund the planting of two spring snow flowering crabapple trees, To Camrose Homes To Rural Homes *partial coverage plus the cost of pouring a cement pad Who Can I Count On? . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 6 Tues.

The Restaurant of Mistaken Orders

“Hi, how ya doing?” my lunch friend asked, arriving at the restaurant. “Actually,” I said, dabbing at my eyes with a tissue, “I’m a wreck.” Context sidebar. I have a condition–ironically sometimes called dry eyes– which causes my eyes to water. Apparently my eyes think they’re not getting enough lubrication (dry eyes) so they crank out a lot of extra moisture. At any moment I might have tears running down my face. On this occasion, I couldn’t tell how much of my watery-eye-ness was dry eyes and how much was emotion. Just before the lunch date, I’d read and watched a video about The Restaurant of Mistaken Orders. And wept. I’ve never been to Japan, but my understanding is that in the Japanese culture, mistakes are simply not acceptable. This is the country in which, when a train left 25 seconds early, the CEO of the railway issued a public apology and launched an internal investigation. Perfectionism extends to restaurants. The article about The Restaurant of Mistaken Orders said, “…in Japanese restaurants, mistakes are not made. And on the off chance that a mistake is made, even a trivial one, the lengths that proprietors will go to make things right with their customers must, in the eyes of a westerner, be seen to be believed.” So how, in this culture, in Tokyo, is there The Restaurant of Mistaken Orders? “You might think it’s crazy. A restaurant that can’t even get your order right,” says its English introduction page. “All of our servers are people living with dementia. They may, or may not, get your order right.” One intention of the restaurant is to increase understanding of dementia. But it’s also a functioning business that must serve customers and make a profit. In the video I saw servers–from middle aged to in their nineties–forget the specials and laugh. They’d deliver an order and say, “Is this your order? I can’t remember!” Customers would say, “Actually, it’s not my order. But it’s okay.” One woman said to the server who was in her eighties, “Can I take your picture with me? My mom is younger than you and she doesn’t want to go out any more. I’d like her to see you.” The server agreed to the picture and said, “I didn’t know if I could do this, but I’m having so much fun.” ***

In the video scene that completely did me in, a fortyishlooking man was about to play a cello, accompanied by his wife on a piano. The man explained that a few years before, his wife–in her forties–had been diagnosed with early onset dementia. Devastating. “She said she did not want to live,” he said. She withdrew from everyone and everything. Her career as a classical pianist had been her life. She stopped playing. He’d convinced her to begin playing again, and they were about to perform. They played the version of “Ave Maria”–with haunting cello melody and delicate piano arpeggio notes underneath–that’s so exquisite it can move me to tears even without the story. And yes, a few minutes in, the wife lost her place on the piano. Gently, with infinite kindness, the husband helped her find her fingering again, and they continued until the final lingering note. A few seconds silence, and the entire restaurant rose for a standing ovation. Mine were not the only tears. And then I left to meet my friend for lunch.

We have finally entered the election campaign. This should be a time to hear the policies of the parties and to determine which are the nearest to our own beliefs. There are important questions facing our country; climate change, national finances, immigration and many more. However, the media seems determined to drag up a so called scandal, which was dealt with over and over months ago. This is the SNC-Lavalin question. This was a disagreement about a policy issue. The basis of it was an allegation that SNC-Lavalin bribed official including the dictator’s son in Libya over a decade ago. It is a large international company whose head office is in Montreal and several factories employing several thousand high salaried workers are located in Canada. The alleged actions occurred in Libya, not Canada. When a business engages in a foreign country it must operate according to the standards of that place; not Canada. In many foreign countries corrupt payments are a cost of doing business. The question was how to deal with the alleged action by SNC-Lavalin. One choice was for the company to sign an agreement admitting the action and agreeing to pay a penalty but avoiding a criminal trial. This procedure has been used in the United States and United Kingdom for several years. Such penalties have been substantial, up to nearly $1 billion in the U.S. Whatever the penalty was it would be paid directly into public treasury without legal expenses.

The other choice was to prosecute. Lavalin is a large and rich company and so it can employ the best lawyers in the land and the crown will have to match them, spending a great amount of public money. Nearly a year has already passed and the case is no ways near a court. Jody Wilson-Raybould, who was minister of justice and attorney general, decided to prosecute. She showed herself to be a self-centred, self righteous hypocrite who felt she did not need to explain or justify her decision. She was asked to consider the economic effects of her decision, but she felt no one had the right to ask her to reconsider her decision or to explain why she made it. Ms. Raybould, when shifted to a different department, resigned. Now please let us consider the real future of our country and not go over the has been phony issue. Ron Williams, Camrose Plastic problem

I would like to thank Arnold Malone for his excellent guest column raising the issue of plastic contamination of our environment. The issue is timely and important, but I’d like to add two things. One is that the problem is much greater than Mr. Malone stated, and the second is that there is good news that everyone should be aware of. Masses of plastic in the ocean that Mr. Malone described are definitely a concern, but the greater threat is much closer to home. Mr. Malone is correct that plastic molecules don’t break down naturally, but under pressure, such as in

a landfill, plastic crumbles into tiny fragments called microplastics, which get everywhere. Scientists at the University of Victoria, this past spring, revealed that the average Canadian consumes between 70 and 120 thousand particles of microplastic each year. Its in our air, our water and our food. When asked if this was bad, the scientists responded yes, but that they didn’t know if it was like smoking one cigarette per day or a whole pack per day. But because the world produces 300 million tons more plastic each year, the damage to our health is greater every year. And because some of this microplastic gets stuck in our tissues and we can’t get rid of it, these toxins keep building in us. So, we have to stop contaminating our environment with plastic. It’s that simple. We have no choice. That’s where the good news comes in. In Europe, they haven’t been leaving garbage to rot in landfills for decades. That’s because Europeans have figured out that they can make money from garbage. In Sweden, they make so much money from garbage that they import it from other countries. Automobile fuel in Stockholm, Sweden’s largest city, is 100 per cent biofuel made from garbage and much of the electricity in Sweden is made from garbage. We could do that too. The technology is proven. Its safe and effective. Its win, win. Don’t contaminate the environment and make money. It’s an opportunity waiting for us if we want it. Rob Hill, Camrose

***

So, how is the restaurant doing? They report, “37 per cent of our orders were mistaken but 99 per cent of our customers said they were happy.” There’s something about managing expectations. There’s something about thinking of ways that people can be part of the community just as they are, with their gifts and limitations. But there’s something even more important. In the perfectionist Japanese culture, what matters even more is to preserve harmony and relationships. Kindness, realism and affection in action and 99 per cent happy. ***

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.

Laskosky named player of the week By Murray Green

Camrose Kodiaks opened the Alberta Junior Hockey League season at home with a 5-1 victory over the Olds Grizzlys on Sept. 13 and a 6-4 loss to the Brooks Bandits on Sept. 14. Cody Laskosky of New Norway scored eight points with five goals to not only lead the Kodiaks, but quickly became the league leader in points on the first weekend of play. “Against Olds, we played an entire 60 minutes and the players bought into the system and we trusted our coaches,” he explained. Laskosky opened the scoring for the Kodiaks around the middle of the first period to give them a good start to the game. He assisted on Erik Miller’s tally later in the period to put the Kodiaks up 2-0 against Olds. He added two more markers in the second frame, while Olds netted one goal. In the third, Reece Becker added to the lead with help from Laskosky and Damon Zimmer. Goalie Griffin Bowerman stopped 30 of 31 shots to hold down the fort at the other end of the ice. Camrose started slow against Brooks and the score was 4-0 before Laskosky scored to give the Kodiaks some life. “We let them take it to us in the first period, but during the intermission we had a choice to let it keep happening or do something about it. We decided to change it for the next 40 (minutes). I

thought we played hard. We were just watching them and giving them too much respect. We came out more aggressive and in the second and third we took it to them,” he added. The Kodiaks rallied in the second to gain back the momentum as Jacob Kendall and Laskosky scored to close the gap to 5-3. In the third period, Brooks scored before Connor Brock netted the fourth tally for the Kodiaks. “It was a much different game than with Olds and I guess we were not as prepared. We need to be more prepared,” said Cody. “When I was little, I remember watching the Kodiaks play in the Max McLean Arena looking up to the Kodiaks during their dynasty, winning years. Every player around my age back then wanted to be a Kodiaks for that reason. I’ve moved around, but it is nice to be home for the last year of juniors. I love being here.” He started his junior career with the Whitecourt Wolverines scoring 37 points in his rookie season. Cody also played for Olds, and Sherwood Park, before joining the Kodiaks for 20 games last season. Laskosky netted 20 goals last year, spread across three teams. Camrose hosts the AJHL Showcase weekend on Sept. 27 and 28, away team on Friday against Bonnyville and then host the Fort McMurray Oil Barons on Sept. 28. Both games in the Encana Arena begin at 7 p.m.

Nature through Zimmerman’s lens By Lori Larsen

It is with great sadness that The Camrose Booster family says farewell to wildlife photographer extraordinaire and gentle soul Al Zimmerman, who passed away on Sept. 13. Al regularly contributed stunning wildlife and scenery photographs to our paper, depicting the beauty that awaits us all in and around Camrose. He was always so willing to share his passion for

the wonder of nature with us here at the Booster and so grateful that we were able to extend that to our readers and the residents of Camrose and area. A retired farmer from Kelsey area, Al, often with wife Betty, would spend countless hours traversing the back country roads, seizing opportunities to photograph some of the most amazing wildlife shots.

Sometimes it meant sitting for hours in wait at the edge of a field or mucking through a swamp, just to bring us incredible moments of the wild captured through the lens of his camera. We would like to extend our warmest condolences to Al’s wife Betty, family and friends and to all who knew him. His joyous view of the world will be missed.

Zimmerman Photography One of the last photos Al Zimmerman brought into The Camrose Booster showed a playful blue jay but also depicted Al’s delightful sense of humour when he remarked “Everybody Reads the Booster.”

Alberta Seniors Advocate returning to Camrose Submitted by Camrose Seniors Coalition

It has been two-and-a-half years since Dr. Sheree Kwong See visited Camrose in her relatively new role as the first ever Seniors Advocate for the province of Alberta. Camrose Seniors Coalition hosted that visit on March 6, 2016, and is hosting her second visit on Sept. 30. Appointed to the position in September 2016, Dr. Kwong See spent much of her first year organizing the office and visiting Alberta communities to share information about the Seniors Advocate mandate and listen to seniors’ stories about the various frustrations or barriers they face as seniors. Dr. Kwong See is returning to Camrose to provide an update on what she has done since her last visit, including some of the issues and policy recommendations she has explored with the provincial government over the past three years. The office of the Seniors Advocate was first announced in 2013 and functioned within the office of Alberta Health Advocates until August 2016. Appointed the following month, Dr. Kwong See was the first such appointment separate from the Alberta Health Advocates. The Seniors Advocate office itself was the second such provincial office established in Canada after British Columbia. Continued on page 9

Considered a Canadian expert on the psychology of aging, Dr. Kwong See was seconded by the Alberta government from her position as a tenured professor of psychology at the University of Alberta to serve a three-year term. Her research on cognitive aging, age stereotyping and ageism have all served her well in the Seniors Advocate position. Dr. Kwong See was given a three-pronged mandate at the time of her appointment: 1) provide resolution support to senior Albertans and their families (individual advocacy); 2) identify and analyze issues and trends as they emerge through the advocacy work; and 3) make recommendations to government for improvements to programs and services (issues advocacy). The comprehensive mandate meant that she would address seniors’ issues through both individual and issues advocacy. Clearly, the two levels must be addressed in tandem if real improvements are to be achieved. With Dr. Kwong See’s three-year term almost complete, she is returning to Camrose to report back to the community, and to seek input regarding the future direction of the office itself. That input will inform her recommendations to the minister as her first term appointment comes to a close and the government makes decisions about the office itself. Camrose Seniors Coalition is thrilled at the opportunity to hear what Dr. Kwong See has done to help Alberta seniors over the past three years, as well as provide input into future directions. Join us on Monday, Sept. 30 in the Rosehaven Auditorium on 4612–53 Street from 1:30 to 3 p.m. (street parking on adjoining avenues). Refreshments and venue provided by The Bethany Group.

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.

BUCKAROOS

David Lyseng Photo The Bailey Buckaroos are back for another season with band members from left, Jordan Ledene, Jessica Dostie, Robin Eklund, Rudy Famulak, Dan Olofson, Marj Pudlowski and regular special guest Al Chomlack (insert). The first show of the season is on Sunday, Sept. 29 at 2 p.m.

The Bailey Buckaroos are back for another year of performing country music at the Bailey Theatre on the last Sunday of the month at 2 p.m. “The shows are always the last Sunday of every month, except in December when it will be moved ahead (Dec. 15) because of the holiday season,” said band member Dan Olofson. The Buckaroos are heading into its sixth year of performing monthly shows at the Bailey. “We will be changing it up a little this fall with a few more modern country songs. Our focus will still be on traditional country music, but we want to add some new favourites as well,” he added. The response to the shows has been really good over the years and the band wants to continue providing top notch music to local fans. “Not that many shows have had a run as long as we have and we have our supporters to thank for that. It is appreciated by the Bailey and the Buckaroos,” said Dan. “We are going to keep the classic country part of the show, but we want to evolve to attract new fans as well.” The Bailey Buckaroos bring many decades of band experience to the Bailey stage. Rudy Famulak plays the fiddle, Robin Eklund is on drums, Jessica Dostie on vocals, Dan Olofson on base guitar, Jordan Ledene plays the lead guitar and is on vocals, regular special guest Al Chomlack on keyboards and Marg Pudlowski is on vocals. “We want to have two or three special guests each week to add some vocals and variety to the monthly show,” said Dan. The first Bailey Buckaroos show is on Sept. 29 at 2 p.m.

City council votes to discontinue the city swan program By Lori Larsen

During the regular City of Camrose council meeting held on Sept. 16, council unanimously voted to discontinue the swan program and not proceed with the construction of a new swan abode. In response to a request by council during the Aug. 20 council meeting, administration provided more information regarding the treatment of the swans. City of Camrose Community Services general manager Ryan Poole indicated that they had sought the advice of four separate experts on the topic

of keeping of waterfowl, specifically swans, including representatives of the Edmonton, Calgary and Saskatoon zoos and Kim Blomme, director of Wildlife Services at Wild North. “Both the Saskatoon and Calgary Zoo experts explained that we should have a significantly better setup for housing the swans in the winter than our existing facility,” said Poole. Poole said the Edmonton Valley Zoo expert was of the opinion that the existing facility Camrose is using to house the swans during the winter would suffice with modifications

Lori Larsen, Camrose Booster City swan program will be discontinued after this season.

for better bird safety and health. Quotes obtained by the parks department on the construction of a new swan abode indicated the cost could be between $462,000 and $530,000, depending

on the size of the facility and whether the existing facility was renovated or a new facility built. Taking into consideration the new information provided by administration regarding the humane

treatment of the swans and the potential costs of building an abode in which to properly house them, councillors voted in favour of discontinuing the program. According to City of Camrose parks department director Ken Krueger, the four swans that are presently part of the existing program will be removed from Mirror Lake and Duggan Pond at the end of the season and then sent, via air travel at a cost not to exceed $1,000, to a breeder located in the lower mainland British Columbia where they will live out the remainder of their lives.

Author speaks on history of religion and oil industry By Lori Larsen

Edmonton author on the history of religion, politics and culture in modern America, Darren Dochuk, will be presenting two free sessions in Camrose on different aspects of the religion and politics of pipelines. The first session will take place on Tuesday, Oct. 15 from 6 p.m. until 7:30 p.m. at the Camrose Public Library and the second on Wed. Oct. 16 from noon until 1:30 p.m. at the Mayer Family Hall, Jeanne and Peter Lougheed Performing Arts Centre. The first lecture titled God and Black Gold covers topic material by Ernest Manning, American evangelicalism, and the religious history of pipeline politics and the oil sands in mid-twentieth century Alberta with a focus on matters of labour, economics, and environment. This lecture will draw on the illustrative case study of the Great Canadian Oil Sands and the powerbrokers behind it—men such as former Alberta Premier Ernest Manning, American oilman J. Howard Pew, and evangelist Billy Graham. This session will show how religious beliefs and institutional networks were crucial to the birth and growth of the oil business in this province. The second lecture titled Anointed With Oil: How Christianity and Crude Made Modern America will cover how oil has always enchanted Americans, and inspired them to think about their society’s future in sacred terms. A light lunch will be provided. Dochuk’s recently published book Anointed

with Oil: How Christianity and Crude Made Modern America is available for purchase at the Augustana Campus Bookstore ($47.78 including tax. Accepted payment methods: debit, credit or cash). Dochuk earned his BA from Simon Fraser University and MA from Queen’s University (Canada) before receiving his Ph.D. from the University of Notre Dame. He writes widely on the history of religion, politics, and culture in modern America. Prior to publishing Anointed With Oil: How Christianity and Crude Made Modern America in 2019, he published From Bible Belt to Sunbelt: Plain-Folk Religion, Grassroots Politics, and the Rise of Evangelicalism (Norton), which won the John H. Dunning Prize from the American Historical Association and the Ellis W. Hawley Prize from the Organization of American Historians, and was based on a dissertation that was awarded the Allan Nevins Prize from the Society of American Historians. He has also edited several other books in American history, including most recently The Routledge History of the TwentiethCentury United States (Routledge). Dochuk is Associate Professor of History at the University of Notre Dame in South Bend, Indiana. Both sessions are open to the public and do not require registration. The Oct. 15 session will include refreshments and the Oct. 16 a light lunch.

PIGS brings Pink Floyd music on stage By Murray Green

PIGS, Canada’s Pink Floyd band returns to Camrose with its In The Flesh Tour on Tuesday, Oct. 1 starting at 7:30 p.m. Celebrate one of the greatest bands of all time with flawless performances of classic and rare Pink Floyd songs. PIGS celebrate the long history of Pink Floyd by bringing to life countless fan favorites from the Floyd’s vast catalogue. Audiences can look forward to performances of songs from The Wall, The Dark Side of the Moon, Wish You Were Here and Animals, along with other classic favourites and rarities. Using authentic equipment, the band goes to great lengths to recreate the sound and live concert experience of Pink Floyd’s ’70s era. Pink Floyd’s live show was always a huge part of their appeal and PIGS have been working to keep that experience alive for generations to come. “We’ve been honoured to share our love of the (Pink) Floyd with so many fans,” said Josh Szczepanowski, band leader. “The crowds are great and really love what we are doing. People always say you should find a job you love and we really love what we do.” PIGS welcome the challenges and find it keeps their shows fresh, dynamic, authentic and exciting for their fans. They were formed in 2008 in Victoria to honour Pink Floyd’s music like no other tribute. They have spent many years meticulously getting the sound and gear right to recreate the live sound and concert experience of ’70s Pink Floyd and have been perfecting their craft in front of sold out audiences throughout Canada.

Pritchett is returning for a night out on the town By Murray Green

Country music award winner Aaron Pritchett is headed back to Camrose as part of the second leg of his Out on the Town tour, with special guests Kira Isabella and David James, which will have him performing at the Bailey Theatre on Oct. 2 beginning at 8 p.m. With the release of his EP Out on the Town earlier this year, Pritchett has seen an incredible 2019. The first leg of the Out on the Town tour had sold-out shows across the country, and Pritchett also featured his latest single “Better When I Do” hit #1 on the country radio chart. “We didn’t really make a plan to have a second part of the tour until after the first tour because there was such a success. It was a ton of fun, so we decided that there was a lot more talent, a lot more towns that we haven’t hit yet, including Camrose, although we did play Big Valley last year. I guess, it was time to come back to Camrose,” said Aaron. This time it will be a little bit more intimate at the Bailey. “It doesn’t make much difference in the show especially. When you get the crowds, whether it is a sit down theatre crowd or whether they’re standing on their feet, thousands of them at a festival, to me it’s kind of the same. You’ve got to put on the same show with the same energy. So, I still go up there and run around and sweat, try and sing as good as I can with as much energy as possible, it really doesn’t matter so much other than the fact

Aaron Pritchett returns to Camrose for one night of fun on Main Street.

that I get to tell a little more about the origin behind the songs when you are closer to them. So that’s probably the biggest difference when it comes to the show.” He knows local fans have supported him in the past. “First and foremost, central to northern Alberta have probably some of the biggest and best fan base of country music in Canada. That’s definitely one reason why I wanted to come back. To get back there and do a show is kind of a no brainer really. We’re always looking forward to coming to Camrose. It holds a lot of fun memories for one.” Pritchett continues to

deliver fresh new music, while refusing to abandon the down-home sincerity in his songs that has been his trademark since his career inception. His new CD reflects a little change in his style. “I’ve evolved and have changed with every new album and try to change as much as possible. You have to keep current with what’s happening in radio and what’s happening next six months to a year. But, I like to put my own little flavour on it. I’m not getting any younger, but you have to keep up with the times. I like up tempo music, sort

of an “in your face artist”,” explained Aaron. “I think my favorite song on that album, of the six songs that we did, was probably ‘Better When I Do’ and not because of the success of it. I went to a publishing house in Nashville and was listening to a whole bunch of songs that the writers wrote. And that one, it stuck out to me. And then when I started playing it live, you see the reaction even before it was a big hit. So it was one of those songs that I read right.” Aaron has met a lot of class acts along the way that have made an impression on him. “Some of them that

have really turned out to be not only great idols, but when I get to meet them in person, they’ve turned out to be unbelievable. People like Garth Brooks, a music God, which he really is, but he’s a super nice person behind stage. In the Canadian industry there’s been so many that have sort of helped me create who I am as an artist. Paul Brant, Charlie Major and Prairie Oyster back in the day. For a lot of those guys it wasn’t just their music, it was getting me something to strive to achieve at that level.” The evolution of helping others, like he was helped, is reflected in this tour. “I think it’s always important to have artists that are just emerging or just starting in their careers and wanting to have a full fledged Canadian country music career. David James, who over the last three or four years has really started to develop as an artist, but they need that little push. Kira Isabella is another emerging artist.” Aaron is excited to be at the Bailey Theatre this time. “I love playing these theatres that have so much history, so much uniqueness to them. In every place you go, like that, you see the history in them. You can just feel it in the walls, which is pretty cool.” Social media now has a huge part of what he does. “I try to connect with the audience and I’ve always been sort of somebody who loves to be able to communicate with the fans.”

TerZettto set to entertain children of all ages By Murray Green

Three doors, three chairs, three wooden boards and a light bulb will appear to come to life when the crew from TerZettto arrive at the Jeanne and Peter Lougheed Performing Arts Centre on Sunday, Sept. 29 at 2 p.m. For the past four years TerZettto authors and performers Étienne Audet, Dominique Grenier and Marie-Michèle Pharand have made people laugh from coast to coast. “We are really excited to visit Camrose because most of our shows are in Quebec. We want to expand our craft around the country. It is a fun job to do (making people laugh) because you can connect with people, even without seeing them. We hear people laugh and sometimes it is at different times, so you know if adults or children are laughing,” said Étienne. “It is a good show for both children and adults.” In this timeless setting,

the very different worlds of three clowns will collide on stage. They soon forget their own individuality, as they build a rapport around their playfulness and imagination. “We like to meet with people after the show to tell us what they liked and it helps us to always keep improving and that is rewarding.” The clowns provide a high-energy theatrical experience filled with humour and zany antics. This show is set to inspire joy and plenty of laughter. Each clown has a trick or two up their sleeves. “We have all trained for a long time outside of the show and then we come together for a series of tours. We have trained between 10 and 15 years in other shows, so the movements take a long time to perfect, but once you know the moves it is easy to put them into the shows,” said Étienne. Struggling with their own silliness and enthu-

siasm, which sometimes prevent them from seeing further than the tips of their toes, they meet, size each other up, experience some friction and create new bonds based on their unique abilities. Through various scenes forged with humour and flair, this performance examines the topic of human relationships. “Although the show has been going for four years, I have been in it for only two years. I had to learn my parts in two weeks, so it was a quick learn because I had my skills already.” Étienne is a contortionist. At the age of 12, Etienne joined Le Cirque des étoiles a small circus in Magog. When he reached the age of 16, he performed as an aerialist, doing trapeze for two years and also performing during summers as a street performer. “At 16, I realized that this was a good career choice for me. I learned a lot as a street performer and tried different things,

so I was ready for circus school,” added Étienne. When he moved to Quebec City, Étienne trained in the recreational program 12 hours a week, in the Quebec Circus School. Then he auditioned at National Circus school of Montreal, where he joined the Preparatory Program. After one year of training in Montreal, he decided to go back to Quebec City to complete his professional studies as a circus artist and decided to specialize in contortion and duo trapeze. “TerZettto is really about acceptance. We are all really different characters and we all have things that we want to do. We interact with each other, then accept what the other proposes and help each other achieve our goals and just being yourself.” As an artist that is always looking for improvement and creation of interesting images, he mixes acrobatics, hand balancing, dance and contortion, putting down the bases of a

new avenue: the acrobatic contortion. TerZettto will be held in conjunction with Alberta Culture Days in Camrose. “It is important for me to share with people what I have been working on for a long time. It is also an opportunity to learn from other people. It is fun for us to travel and do what we love. It is such a fun show to do, I think we will continue the show for some time. We have travelled all of Quebec and Ontario, but there is so much of Canada to see and perform for other Canadians,” said Étienne. Founded in 1974, the company L’Aubergine de la Macédoine, creator of TerZettto, has set itself the objective of dramatizing clowning arts through the creation, production and dissemination of highquality shows that combine various disciplines of the performing and circus arts, all of which are used to serve the characters.

Art alive in Camrose By Lori Larsen

In 2017, the Camrose Arts Council was established as an advocate for the arts and culture community. It also acts as a governing body to give grants for arts and culture initiatives. “We strongly believe that we have an outstanding arts and culture community in Camrose that enriches all our lives and makes our community that much stronger,” said Camrose Arts Council chair Valerie Sims. The council is responsible for granting funds to notfor-profit organizations throughout the community for arts and culture initiatives. “In our last round of grants, we supported the Canadian Northern Historical Society with a program “In Their Footsteps”, The Bailey Theatre Society with a video project, The Camrose Arts Society with the Alberta Culture Days, and National Indigenous Peoples Day.” Applications for the next Arts and Culture Grant are due Sept. 30. If you are interested in applying for a grant, follow the grant application on the City of Camrose website at www.camrose.ca/en/recreation-and-leisure/ arts-and-culture.aspx#Camrose-Arts-Council. The Camrose Arts Society is a not-for-profit organization that has been in existence since 1979 with a mission to bring to Camrose and area the multi-faceted world of arts and culture. Located at 4809-52 Street, the Chuck MacLean Arts Centre hosts a variety of classes, programs and services along with exhibits featuring local and incoming artists and artisans. Camrose theatre life is also kept abuzz with shows and events held at both the Bailey Theatre, located at 5041-50 Street, and the Jeanne and Peter Lougheed Performing Arts Centre located at 4501-50 Street. The addition of arts and culture not only rounds out a community’s identity, but directly attributes to its wellbeing by nurturing the wholistic person of its residents.

Two Air Cadets receive glider wings

The most comfortable shoes for your feet!

By Murray Green

Two Camrose Air Cadets received their glider wings this summer. Flight Sergeant Michael McCarroll and Warrant Officer Second Class Ethan Mitchell of the Royal Canadian Air Cadets Camrose 644 Cougars Squadron received summer training to become glider pilots in Gimli, MB. “We went for seven weeks to receive our glider pilot training from July 9 to Aug. 23. We were familiarized with the gliders for the first few days on operations and then went right into training. We had 29 dual air missions and then 20 solo missions that we had to complete within the seven weeks,” explained Mitchell. Dual missions meant that the instructor was on board and giving the cadets leadership and training. “I only had a little flying experience prior to going through Cadets. I didn’t have a lot of piloting experience,” added Mitchell. “With Cadets, I’ve been up in Cessnas a few times and four times in a glider,” shared McCarroll. Going from flights with an instructor to flying solo

is huge jump in learning. “As a pilot, you have the feeling of being free and untethered from the earth, but it is totally different being able to fly by yourself. Up there, it is just you and your plane. What goes right or wrong is totally up to you,” expressed McCarroll. “It was scary at first, knowing you don’t have that safety net of having an instructor with you, but you were in contact with the instructor on the radio. It was fun, honestly. I started singing to myself because I had nothing else to do. You kind of get into the rhythm of everything and that’s what the train-

ing was for,” shared Mitchell. “We had quite a bit to learn. We had ground school classes besides our flying time. The weeks would switch, but some weeks we had ground school in the morning, learning about flight theory and many other things to prepare us for the Transport Canada exam, and flying in the afternoon and evenings,” said Mitchell. “We didn’t have a number of hours of flying, it was based more on the number of flights,” added McCarroll. There are several gliding sites across the province, such as in Josephburg, where Cadets can fly solo flights on weekends after they have earned a license. “Receiving a license is a huge opportunity, not just for us flying, but it is huge for the Cadet program because now that I have my wings, I have an opportunity to take other Cadets up flying and show them what the program can really be for them. It shows them what they can do if they put in the effort,” revealed McCarroll. “It is a stepping stone for me in a career in aviation, whether it is becoming a pilot or a military career. Like McCarroll said, it is really beneficial to take other Cadets up and show them what it is like,” added Mitchell, a Grade 12 student. “I want to pursue aviation in the future, either into air traffic control or as a pilot career.” McCarroll is in Grade 11 and is still deciding about future training. “I want to do something aviation related. Next year is the power Cadet scholarship, which leads to flying any small aircraft. We don’t have Cadets with a pilot license, so to have one would be amazing for the program,” said McCarroll.

By earning their glider’s license, it can lead to more training and advancement in the Cadet program. They can now teach ground school training as well. “After Grade 12, I’m going to apply to the Royal Military College and pursue a career in the military,” shared Mitchell. “I would like to go to the glider pilot instructor course, so I can teach new Cadets about flying and help them to receive their license. Just seeing the impact the instructor had on all of us Cadets was amazing and I want to do that too,” said McCarroll.

The glider training school had 60 Cadets, two of whom were from Camrose. “It was a lengthy process that started last September. We started learning ground school to prepare for the entrance exam, a 40-question exam, as well as writing a narrative on why we wanted to be in this course,” explained Mitchell. “We also went to an interview board in Innisfail and they gave us questions to see if we were fit for the course. They wanted to take the best Cadets that they could.”

Celebrating land with song

Every business in Camrose in one location. Plus, everything there is to know, do, see, or attend in Camrose and area in the palm of your hand.

By Lori Larsen

As an area that relies heavily on the agriculture industry, efforts are being made by many individuals and organizations in Camrose and area to ensure farming continues to be valued and viable. University of Alberta Augustana Campus Spirit of the Land Foundation is hosting a fundraiser evening of celebration and song called Prairie Song, on Oct. 5 at the Camrose Regional Exhibition. The doors will open at 6:30 p.m. with entertainment beginning at 7 p.m. The evening is meant to bring community together to enjoy music and stories of music by local musicians, some local food and drink, a silent auction and engage in conversation about the future of prairie life, specifically that on the farm. Reminiscent of rural barn dances and good old get togethers a SingerSongwriter Circle will feature local artists headed by Ryan Lindsay. Lindsay, from Wainwright and Camrose, is a fast-rising country star, who won Country 105’s Rising Star competition in 2018. He performed on the main stage of Country Thunder, and made the Top 10 Ballot for ACMA male country artist of the year. “I grew up in the prairies and went to Augustana to take an Outdoor Education degree,” said Lindsay. “Being in the Outdoor Education program and with summers off working as a wilderness guide, I really fell in love with nature, which was strengthened through The Spirit of the Land course and visiting the Ruzicka farm. “That was the first time I had experienced what healthy ecology on the farm was like. It really resonated with me because I grew up in the prairies. This was a space that is special and important to me.” Joining Lindsay will be Joni Delaurier, Troy Kokol, and Don Amero, longstanding prairie musicians with top country hits and multiple JUNO nominations. The purpose of the evening is two-fold, firstly to act as a fundraiser set up to raise funds in an effort to create educational opportunities for students desiring to explore the avenue of farming, in a different vein then what may have traditionally occurred. Secondly, the evening will provide an opportunity to share in conversation on a new initiative created by the Spirit of the Land Foundation to develop a

PRAIRIE SONG

Submitted A group of University of Alberta, Augustana Campus Spirit of the Land students ride in the back of a pick up truck through a field on the Ruzicka Sunrise Farm during one of the annual class field trips.

cooperative model that will facilitate next generation farmers’ access to prairie lands. “Ruzicka Sunrise Farm has played an integral role in our (Spirit of the Land Foundation) success by providing a living and inspiring mod-

el for sustainable, ecologically-minded agriculture practices on the Canadian prairies,” said Spirit of the Land Foundation co-founder Raj Rathnavalu. “Students have been making regular visits to Sunrise Farm, owned and operated

by Marie and Don Ruzicka, for the past eight years.” With recent news of Marie and Don retiring from farming, the Spirit of the Land Foundation spawned an idea for a project to reconnect people to the value lands play in the life of a community by creating a co-operative to purchase the land from Ruzicka family. “The status quo is the loss of rural community as farms get bigger and bigger,” noted Rathnavalu adding that there is a move away from farming by the younger generational farm family members, in part due to economics and some due to interests vested elsewhere. “The singers and songwriters featured at the Prairie Song event really value people and place and culture,” commented Lindsay. “There is going to be a lot of stories that really resonate with this particular community.” Recollecting the stories that have influenced the writing of the songs, the

entertainers will sit around and share the stories, how and why they were written, the recording process as well as some stories from the road. “As I began pursing music and having some success in music I felt like it was a really great thing to bring my music back to the community to support this.” Lindsay’s summer release of a track entitled Wild is all about his love for the natural world. “If it wasn’t for that part of my life I wouldn’t be writing in the same vein as I am now. It had a huge influence on my life. “This project is in part bringing communities back into farm. We can see the vision and make the future of farming whatever we want.” For tickets and more information, visit www. spiritoftheland.ca or telephone Raj at 780-781-5620.

Allan Wayne Zimmerman March 30, 1939 ~ September 13, 2019 Allan was born on March 30, 1939, the seventh child of Alvin and Ethel Zimmerman in Camrose, Alberta. He grew up on the family farm one mile north of Kelsey. Allan attended and graduated from Bawlf School. He spent some years in the reserves and married Vera Meyer in 1965. They had two children Leo and Brenda. Camping, fishing and skiing holidays were enjoyed by the family. Farming across the road and sometimes on the same field with neighbors, he developed trusting and loyal relationships. Farming was always a part of Allan’s life. He worked diligently with his dad growing up and took over the farm in 1966 when his parents moved to town. He enjoyed baseball growing up, but Polio, affecting his shoulder, kept him from continuing. Becoming an umpire allowed him to be on the diamond, which gave him many years of enjoyment. He worked at Stelco in Camrose in the 1960s and some in the early 1990s when he retired from farming. In 1991, he married Betty Barnes with the addition of five stepchildren Laura, Alyn, Shayne, Chris and Angela whom he welcomed as his own. Since retiring, he took up nature photography as a hobby and had many adventures with Betty travelling in their RV. Photography led him to woodworking and perfecting the art of picture framing. Allan enjoyed the outdoors, drives in the country, and being with family. He formed many long lasting friendships and will be missed by many. He leaves to cherish his memory his wife Betty; son Leo (Rhonda) Zimmerman; daughter Brenda (Darryl) Dibben; stepchildren Laura (Ron) Girard, Alyn (Candace) Sandberg, Shayne Sandberg, Chris (Nicole) Bouillon and Angela (Ryan) Bradley; twenty grandchildren; and seven great-grandchildren. He was predeceased by his parents Alvin and Ethel; brothers Gene and Harold; and sisters Gladys and Joyce. A Funeral Service was held at 11:00 a.m. on Monday, September 23, 2019 from CityLights Church, 4920-48 Street, Camrose with Rev. Brian Hunter officiating. If family and friends so desire, memorial contributions are gratefully accepted to the Heart and Stroke Foundation. To send condolences, please visit www.burgarfuneralhome.com.

Eva Ledene Eva Ledene was born on December 12, 1918 in Robsart, SK. Eva went home on September 12, 2019. She is survived by sons Robert (Brenda) and Leslie (Esther); and grandchildren Murray, Kim, Ryan, Darcy, Kirk, Barrett and families. Eva was predeceased by husband Albin in 1972; daughter Karen in 1987; brothers Oscar (Lillus) and Morris (Esther); and sisters Myrtle and Thelma (Alf). She was the last of the original Leiren clan. The family moved from Robsart to the Bawlf area where they farmed. Eva had a great desire to become a schoolteacher. She started her teaching career at Scandia School between Bawlf and Daysland, living with the Loken family. On July 24, 1943, she received a telegraph from the Jenny Linn School at Scandia, AB which said that she and her good friend, Eileen Rosdal, had received teaching positions. It was at a box social in Scandia where Eva would meet her future husband, Albin. They moved to a farm east of Bawlf and had a mixed farming operation. Eva taught at Bawlf School for over 20 years, retiring in 1977. Retirement was not the end of her adventures. Eva was the Alberta Senior Games Scrabble champion. She only passed on her winning strategy of the game to a few people! She was very active in church activities and taught English to new immigrants. Her cooking was always top notch. Traveling was always important which included going back to Norway to touch base with family roots. She also enjoyed her visits to southern US states and eastern Canada. Her favorite trip was with Alf , Thelma and Olga when they drove to Alaska – she talked about this trip often. Eva was always proactive about her living arrangements, such as moving from the farm to Camrose, then selling her house after Albin died and moving into the triplex on Mirror Lake, on to Deer Meadows and Bethany Meadows, where she passed away peacefully. December 12, 2018 was Eva’s 100th birthday. At times, she wasn’t sure she would make that milestone, but she did and when she received a letter from Queen Elizabeth and the Governor General of Canada, that was the icing on the cake.

Edith Crosland Edith Elenore (Nerland) Crosland was born in Kenyon, Minnesota on August 29, 1919 to Edward and Elen Nerland who had immigrated to Minnesota from Norway. She was the middle daughter – the oldest being Elvina, the youngest Elfrida. Edith was extremely proud of her Norwegian heritage and would keep in touch with her extended family in Norway for many years. Eventually the Nerland family would settle on a farm east of Airdrie AB. Edith’s Christian faith was very important to her and began with her baptism into the Lutheran church on September 21, 1919. She would attend a number of churches in her life, the main one being Faith Lutheran in Calgary where she was a very active member. Edith did her high school and business training in Calgary. She would go on to become a secretary for one of the Calgary Eaton’s managers and later work for many years for the lawyer Spencer Cummings as a legal secretary. Through a friend at Eaton’s, she was introduced to her future husband Jim Crosland. Jim and Edith were married in 1951 and would have 51 years of marriage until Jim’s death in 2002. In 1954, their only child, Bob, was born. Later, the family would grow to include his wife Irene; grandson Nate and his wife Kara; and three great-grandchildren Tessa, Luca and Willa. Immediate and extended family were always loved and cherished by Edith. On August 24 and August 29, 2019, various family members gathered at the Tofield Long Term Care to celebrate her 100th birthday. Edith died peacefully at the Tofield Long Term Care on September 7, 2019. She will be lovingly remembered by her immediate family, sister Elfrida Lunde; sister-in-law Pauline Crosland; and her extended family. She was predeceased by her husband Jim; parents Edward and Elen Nerland; sister Elvina Clark; niece Myrna Keim; and numerous sisters-in-law and brothers-in-law. A special thank you to everyone who visited Edith in the Tofield Long Term Care and to all the disciplines and staff of the Tofield Health Care Acute and Long Term Care units who gave Edith such compassionate and loving care over these last eight years. A memorial service was held at 2:00 p.m. on Saturday, September 14, 2019 at Tofield Alliance Church in Tofield. Cremation has taken place. Memorial donations may be made to the Tofield and District Health Foundation Long Term Care.

CAPPIS, Rosa Mary 1943 –2019 Mom was a true warrior in every sense of the word. The Matriarch of our family knew her time was coming, and she wasted not a single moment. The last five months were filled with conversation, preparation, laughter and many tears. She fought hard in life to live and passed with dignity and grace and, most importantly, on her terms. As she asked, her kids, grandkids and siblings stood by her until her final moment. She reminded us one last time of her love for us, she closed her eyes, took her last breath and left to a place free of suffering, joining her husband once again. Her legacy left behind is daughter Vaughn Cappis; sons Brad Cappis (Marnie) and Mark Cappis (Amber) and chosen son, Tony Duarte (Cathy). She was Grandma to Dain, Kurstyn, Joeleana, Brenna, Grayson, Danica, Vanessa, Sophee, Casey and Marley. The favorite child was Maggie, her furry sidekick for the last 12 years. Over the years, she befriended a plethora of rehabilitated birds and rabbits, not to mention her newest bestie, Ms. Geraldine Squirrel, who we believe was using Mom strictly for her peanuts. Her brothers Garry and Dianne Rakowski, George and Carol Rakowski, and Dennis Rakowski, along with so many family members and friends who share in our loss. She was predeceased by her true love, Big Daddy Len in 2001; her parents Ted and Mildred Rakowski; in-laws Art and Florence Cappis; as well as a number of brothers and sisters-in-law. We are so grateful for the wonderful care and support Mom received from the many doctors, medical staff and Palliative Care throughout this journey. Respect to Dr. Murielle Pratt who was Mom’s doctor for a number of years. Her loyalty and compassion in her care was above and beyond. Cremation has taken place. A Funeral Mass will be celebrated at 11:00 a.m. on Friday, September 27, 2019 at Holy Family Parish, 75 Poirier Avenue, St. Albert, AB with a reception to follow. An interment will take place at a later date at St. Stanislaus Catholic Church, Round Hill, AB.

Urkow family remembers attending both hospitals By Murray Green

FRANKLIN, Francis Dufferin (Duff) 1934 ~ 2019 Duff Franklin of Nelson, BC passed away peacefully after a courageous fight with cancer, at his home on Thursday, September 12, 2019, surrounded by his family. Duff is survived by his three sons Gordon (Christine) and Jeff (Delinda) all of Edmonton, and Don (Darlene) of Calgary; eight grandchildren; four great-grandchildren; three siblings Marthella, Joan and Blake. Duff was predeceased by his wife of 62 years (Flo); his parents (Blake and Annie Franklin); and one sister (Alice). Dad was born in Creston, BC and grew up in various communities throughout southern BC. He graduated high school in Nelson, BC and went on to RCMP training at the age of 19, followed by his first posting in Stettler, Alberta, where he met and married Flo in 1956. They soon after moved to Camrose, AB, where Dad joined the newly formed Camrose City Police force, rising up to become the Chief of Police, while Flo was a nurse at Bethany Hospital. Together with Flo, they raised their three sons in Camrose while spending many summer vacations back in the Nelson area. The draw of the Kootenays led Dad and Mom to make the move back to Nelson in 1986 after his retirement where he resided until his passing. Dad’s life was all about hard work and providing for his family and others. We are thankful that he finally gets his well-deserved rest. There will be no formal service and, as per Dad’s wishes, cremation has taken place. In lieu of flowers and as an expression of sympathy, donations may be made to the Kootenay Lake Hospital, 3 View Street, Nelson, BC V1L 2V1.

Current Covenant Health St. Mary’s Hospital Camrose staff members Rosanne and Neil Urkow had the experience of being in both the old hospital and new facility when their son Adam was born in 1989. “The maternity ward patients were moved over to the new hospital first and at that time, we (son Adam) were patients. We spent a couple of days in the old hospital and then moved over to the new hospital,” explained Rosanne. “He was born on June 26, 1989 and was the last baby to be born in the old hospital. We moved over on June 28. They put us in a wheelchair and asked Neil if he wanted to wheel us over. The rest of the patients were loaded into the handivan and driven up the street.” “It was important to get the patients safely over to the new hospital and they didn’t want to lose anybody. Because we both worked there, they let us go on our own,” added Neil. Neil was working in the new hospital getting the wiring in place for hook-ups. “We had less and less to do at the old hospital. That summer, we hired 10 high school students and each of us maintenance guys were paired up with a couple of students to install soap dispensers and smaller items to finish the rooms.” Sister Bernadine Bokenfohr greeted them at the door. A total of 43 patients were moved that day. “Dr. (Gerry) Tober and Dr. (Ernest) Hilderman were my doctors at the time,” added Rosanne. “It was a huge improvement,” said Neil about

the new facility. “The old steam lines were so corroded that they were actually dangerous. In the old surgery area, I remember, they closed some rooms in the winter because the windows were so bad that snow would blow in. If it snowed, we would have to go around and change flannels overnight because they got wet. That’s how bad the windows were,” reported Neil. “Now 30 years later,

today. Now we are starting to link up with hospitals across the province for support on different procedures. A third labour room now has really helped us as well,” said Rosanne. “We had a big nursery, but now the babies stay with the moms and half the nursery was made into the third labour room. My busiest day last December was six babies on my shift.” The Urkows can picture

we are starting to run into issues and the building is catching up to where the old one was. The big thing is plumbing. We are on our fourth set of hot water tanks,” shared Neil. “Our building has been well kept and people from other communities tell us that, but it is now 30 years old,” added Rosanne, who is a nurse on Unit 4. “I recall going into the hospital when it was in the middle of switching over. Neil was running back and forth from the buildings. Originally, I was thinking we would be in the new hospital. Adam came a week ahead of time,” said Rosanne. “We had the best of both worlds.” Now Rosanne is helping a second generation of mothers in the maternity ward. “Technology and computers are the biggest changes in the hospital

the day when the community will outgrow the current hospital, but until then it will continue to serve the area. “I can see more technology coming in the near future. We still write out some things and I can picture everything going on computer,” said Rosanne, about the future. “When we had a power outage in the past, we would call Fortis. Now we just look on the computer on our town and it shows us the restoration date and time, usually in two or three hours. A third of the building is under emergency power,” said Neil. “Technology will continue to evolve and we have to change with it.” Covenant Health St. Mary’s Hospital Camrose will be celebrating 30 years from the current facility on Friday, Sept. 27 from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.

assigned to a group, not an individual doctor.” He stopped doing obstetrics eight to 10 years ago, so his calls are on anaesthesia now. “I still enjoy doing what I’m doing as far as anesthesiology. There are always challenges to address. I’m here until we find someone willing to move here and buy into the community.” The hospital has served both Dr. Hilderman and the community well. “You always think about improving things, but the hospital tries to provide the needs of the community. It is a challenge keeping up with technology. St. Mary’s has tried to do as much as possible within the limits it has. I thank the longtime doctors who were in place when I started here and then moved over to the new facility.”

The community is invited for a barbecue in front of the building. A tent in the far visitor’s parking lot will be set up for a free community event with a barbecue, cake and community leaders. Tentatively, STARS and the stroke ambulance will give tours or display ambulances that day. A table with archives of information on the history of the hospital will be on display. A contest called Name the Dinosaur where people have to name staff from pictures taken 20 or more years ago will be held. Previous staff, board members and guests will be invited to attend the celebration. The hospital mascot, a teddy bear, will have their name revealed at the event.

New St. Mary’s hospital is now 30 years old By Murray Green

A lot of local residents remember when the new hospital opened. It was a glorious day in Camrose. Well, that was 30 years ago. Covenant Health St. Mary’s Hospital Camrose will be celebrating 95 years of community service and 30 years from the current facility on Friday, Sept. 27 from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Dr. Ernest Hilderman is an anesthesiologist at Covenant Health St. Mary’s Hospital Camrose and recalls the move to the modern facility. “St. Mary’s has always strived to provide multiple needs for the community. When I came here in 1981, they already had two general surgeons, obstetrics, orthopedics, internal medicine, psychiatry and a broad coverage for the needs of the community,” recalled Dr.

Hilderman. “Fortunately, that continued from the old hospital to the new hospital. The new hospital added more space and convenience. It was a nice transition from an older facility to a more modern facility.” About 30 current staff at St. Mary’s also worked at the old hospital. “The hospital has adapted to changes and cutbacks. If you compare the services, we were providing services to predominately local patients, where now we represent a larger region and often receive referrals from other centres. This has given the local doctors adequate patients to have a local practise to continue to be here full time as surgeons,” said Dr. Hilderman. “St. Mary’s has added things like the CT scanner to meet those needs in the community.”

Hospital services at St. Mary’s allow for more people to stay in Camrose and not run to Edmonton for appointments. “It is very important to patients to be able to get as much care locally as possible. Years ago, we had to spend a lot of time in ambulances going to Edmonton with patients. EMS has certainly expanded to help us to eliminate those trips. That has allowed us to spend more time in patient care,” said Dr. Hilderman. “We had less formal structure to anesthetics services and obstetrics services and we were in emergency a lot. As things evolved, we got others involved because the demand for anesthetics increased and obstetrics changed. It (obstetrics) is a group practise now, rather than individuals. You are

Swedberg was fast to track Road Runner By Murray Green

When Lorne Swedberg wants a little more muscle under the hood, he heads for his 1971 Plymouth Road Runner to take it for a drive. “I bought this car in Edmonton about four years ago now. When I bought it, it was already completely restored to the way it sits now,” said Lorne. “I had a Road Runner when I was younger, so this car brought back a lot of memories for me,” explained Lorne. “That’s the main reason why I wanted a Road Runner. I like the power it had with it’s 440 engine in it. The car can go when it needs to.” The Plymouth Road Runner started out as a mid-size car with a focus on performance, built by Plymouth in the United States starting in 1968. “I have done absolutely nothing to the car. I bought it the way I wanted it and I’m happy with it. The car really runs well, so I haven’t done anything more to it as far as changes.” By 1968, some of the original muscle cars were moving away from their roots as relatively cheap, fast cars as they gained features and increased in price. Plymouth developed

Murray Green, Camrose Booster Lorne Swedberg purchased a 1971 Plymouth Road Runner, which brought back memories of a similar car he had when he was younger. The 440 engine moves the car at a good pace.

the Road Runner to market a lower priced, basic trim model to its upscale GTX. The body was called a fuselage style and featured smooth, more dramatic edges than previous renderings of the classic Plym-

FUN FACTS

In 1971, the coupe bodywork was completely changed to a more rounded design in keeping with then-current Chrysler styling trends, including a steeply raked windshield, hidden cowl, and deeply inset grille and headlights. In a departure from previous thinking, the B-Body two-door bodies shared little if any sheet metal, glass, or trim with the four-door bodies. The convertible was cancelled. The interiors could be ordered with six-way power leather seats, thick deep-pile carpeting and additional sound-proofing was installed. Air conditioning and power steering could be had, except on the Hemi. The 1971 models were at their peak for ride and handling for the Road Runner. The overall length was increased, but the wheelbase was shortened an inch. It also saw the introduction of the 340 four-barrel option, and a detuned 383 Road Runner engine. In return, Road Runners with the 340 and 383 engine received a standard insurance rating without the costly premiums normally tacked onto muscle cars. The 383 would now run on regular gas. The 440 plus six-pack and 426 Hemi were available, though this would be the last year for them. The 1972 model was nearly identical to the 1971 with a few minor changes.

outh. This was the direct result of ongoing aerodynamic testing that Chrysler had been involved with. It was important on the NASCAR circuit, which led to the changes for public sales as well. “It has an automatic transmission. I haven’t been able to get it out much this year or go to car shows. I’m hoping to go to more in the future, maybe the weather will cooperate more next year,” he added. In 1971, significant changes were made to the American muscle car, with a number of model redesigns appearing. One was the release of the Charger/ Super Bee and GTX/Road Runner muscle cars. The year was a defining moment in vehicle history. The 1971 model run was also the end of the high-performance equipment standard items as a clap-down on gas-guzzlers occurred. The declining sales of Road Runner and other muscle cars were the result of a move by insurance

companies to add surcharges for muscle car policies, making insurance premiums for high-performance vehicles a very expensive proposition. Also, Plymouth introduced another bargainbasement muscle car for

1970, the compact Duster 340, which was powered by a 340 four barrel V8 that was in the lighter-weight compact A-body.

Fall Car Care Guide… Prepare for some vehicle problems By Murray Green

Anytime that you take your vehicle on the road there is a chance of a breakdown. Be prepared for emergencies, especially as the weather turns cooler. A car that runs out of gas is certainly inconvenient, but if you can pull over to the shoulder or make it to the nearest filling station, then this unfortunate situation can be remedied rather easily. But when a car’s tank is full and it is still showing signs of trouble, drivers must take steps to protect themselves, their passengers and their vehicles. Sudden car trouble is something no driver wants to experience, but many a driver has been driving down the highway only to feel his or her vehicle start to sputter. Such sputtering might indicate a car is running low on fuel, a clogged fuel line, or it could be a sign of something more serious that requires motorists to think as quickly and safely as possible. When car trouble strikes while a vehicle is on the road, the first thing many drivers do is check their fuel gauges. Keep a first-aid and/ or emergency kit, spare tire and tire jack in the car at all times. Flat tires are no fun, but they are even more of a nuisance when drivers are not prepared to address them. Always keep a jack and spare tire in your car, even if the spare is a donut you can temporarily use to replace a flat tire until you make it to a filling station or automotive supply store. As an added safety measure, keep a fully stocked first-aid kit in your vehicle in case you cut yourself, while changing the tire or need to address another medical situation. Visit www.redcross. org for a list of items to include in your automotive emergency kit. Keep a blanket in the trunk as well, so your passengers can stay warm should you experience car trouble on a cold day or night. Take note of your surroundings. Some car troubles can only be fixed by the professionals, so

pay careful attention to your surroundings in case an issue arises and forces you to pull over and call for help. Always pay attention to mile markers and any landmarks that might help you describe where you are. Car troubles can strike at any time and anywhere, so be sure to pay special attention to your surroundings when driving in unfamiliar areas. Pull over and don’t panic if an issue arises suddenly. Remain calm and pull over onto the shoulder. The right shoul-

der is the area for pulling over on most roads, but you may also use the left shoulder on multi-lane highways with medians. Try to get as far away from traffic as possible without driving off level ground and always use your signals when pulling onto the shoulder. If your vehicle can’t make it to the median, put your emergency flashers on and get out of the car, moving away from both the vehicle and traffic. Immediately call for emergency roadside

assistance, alerting the authorities if need be. Use flares or triangles to alert other drivers. So long as you are not risking your well-being, you can place f lares and/or warning triangles behind your vehicle so oncoming traffic knows to drive around it. The motor club recommends placing the first flare or triangle 10 feet directly behind the side of the vehicle that is closest to the road. The second should be placed between 30 and 60 feet (increase the distances as the post-

ed speed limit increases) behind the middle of the bumper, while the third flare or triangle should be placed between 120 and 360 feet behind the vehicle’s right side. Stay with your vehicle once you have called for help and set up flares or triangles, though do so at a safe enough distance so you are not in harm’s way. Sudden car troubles can be scary, but drivers who approach such issues calmly and quickly can reduce their risk for accident or injury.

Healthy ideas for snacks By Murray Green

Making snacks for school children and lunches can be very time consuming. Healthy snacks for school-aged children help them through the long day. Remember that some schools don’t allow nuts or peanuts because of allergies. Offer children water when they’re thirsty, and vegetables and fruit instead of juice, even if it’s 100 per cent juice. Choose healthy snacks every day such as fresh or frozen vegetables; fresh or frozen fruit; fruit cup in fruit juice or water; unsweetened applesauce; whole grain bread; whole grain crackers; whole grain naan, roti or pita; whole grain tortilla or wrap; whole grain cereal; hummus; eggs; meat, chicken or fish; white milk; cheese or cheese string; fortified plain soy beverage and plain yogurt. You can choose these snacks on a less regular basis. Flavoured fortified milk or soy beverage, such as chocolate, strawberry or vanilla; fruit-flavoured yogurt; baked crackers; muffin; granola bar; dried fruit and nut mix.

Fall Car Care Guide… Check your tires before winter arrives

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

We Service Most Makes of Vehicles!

By Murray Green

Don’t wait for the first snowfall to think about checking your tires to ensure they will get you through the season. Ve h ic le o w ner s should be aware of the routine maintenance steps that can keep them safe and improve the life expectancy of tires. Maintaining tires is an important component of safe driving. Tires are some of the hardest working parts on a car or truck and are subjected to wear and tear every time rubber meets the road. Always examine the tread wear and rotate your tires as recommended. Tires affect many components of driving, i nclud i ng ha nd l i ng, braking and the comfort of the ride. Maintaining tires makes driving safe not only for drivers and their passengers, but also for fellow motorists. Fatalities can occur because of tire-related failures. Many of those crashes were no doubt preventable, and that only highlights the importance of maintaining tires and monitoring their performance. Poor tire maintenance can lead to premature wear and potentially result in a blowout. The automotive group A A A notes it is important to visually inspect tires as often as possible. Drivers should look for overall tread wear. Pay special attention to tread wear on one edge of the tires, which could indicate poor alignment. Erratic tread wear may mean tires are out of balance. Drivers also should pay attention to how their cars drive and sound. Unusual vibration or thumping noises suggest issues with the tires. A car that pulls in one direction also may be experiencing tire problems.

Vehicle owners should be aware of the routine maintenance steps that can keep them safe and improve the life expectancy of tires. Tire pressure needs to be the kept up. It has been reported that only 19 per cent of consumers properly check and inflate their tires. Keeping tires properly inflated is one of the most important steps to maintaining them. Tires lose around one psi per month and underinflated

or overinflated tires can contribute to unusual wear, blowouts and even excessive fuel consumption. Rotate tires as per the owner’s manual or recommendations from the tire manufacturer, but know that most mechanics advise having tires rotated every 5,000 to 8,000 miles. Rotation helps distribute wear more evenly on tires. Balancing also helps minimize uneven wear

and tear. Balanced tires are achieved by using small weights attached to the wheels to limit vibration of the tire and wheels as they turn. New tires should be balanced and tires also should be balanced after one or more is removed to repair a puncture. Vehicles have wheel alignment measurements that pertain to manufacturers’ specifications. Alignment that falls outside of the range

can impact handling, fuel economy and tread wear. A drift or pull suggests alignment problems and should be addressed. Vehicle owners should keep tire inspection and maintenance in mind as part of their overall car care plan.

Prostate cancer awareness By Murray Green

NATIONAL RECOGNITION

Submitted I-CAR, a national organization recognizing educational achievements in the automotive collision repair industry, has now awarded platinum status to all of the technicians and estimators at the Auto Shoppe in Camrose. Owner Gord Graham says his team has spent years attaining these prestigious awards. The Auto Shoppe is one of only five collision repair centres in Alberta to be awarded platinum status. Pictured left to right back row are David Millington (refinisher technician), Ryan Graham (estimator and auto physical damage appraiser), Richard Mattis (steel structural technician, non-structural technician and aluminum structural technician), Chance Chapman (refinisher technician, steel structural technician, non-structural technician and aluminum structural technician) and Timothy Klassen (steel structural technician, non-structural technician and aluminum structural technician). Front row Dan Johnson (estimator and auto physical damage appraiser ) and Gord Graham (estimator, auto physical damage appraiser and non-structural technician).

If you haven’t already done so, check your prostrate. September marks Prostate Cancer Awareness Month. The annual event is an opportunity to educate North Americans about the importance of prostate health and to provide information about prostate cancer. Prostate cancer is the most common cancer facing men in Canada. One in seven Canadian men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime. Every year, about 21,000 Canadian men are diagnosed. Any man can develop prostate cancer, but you may be at a higher risk if you have a family history of it, or if you are black, overweight or over the age of 50.

Common prostate cancer symptoms include urination problems; an urgent need to urinate; frequent urination, especially during the night; a burning sensation or pain when urinating; being unable to urinate, or having problems starting or stopping urine flow and blood in urine or semen. If you have any of these symptoms, tell your doctor or call 811. The prostate is a small gland that is part of the male reproductive system. Normally about the size of a walnut, it is located just below the bladder. If you have been diagnosed with prostate cancer, you can find more information, including biopsy, treatment options and support groups, online at prostatecancer.ca.

Camrose police strategic planning By Lori Larsen

LaGrange explained the specific objectives. “Once we identify these offenders, we conduct curfew checks and make sure they (offenders) are complying with their conditions upon release. If they are not, then we are going to hold them accountable and take them back in front of the judge who ordered the conditions. Then the offender can answer to the judge as to why they are breaching them.” LaGrange remarked that by staying on top of these offenders, there will be a notable impact on public safety and community wellness. “We can track how many curfew checks we conduct. If the offender doesn’t present him/herself or doesn’t show, and they are required to by courts, then we issue a warrant for their arrest and take them off the streets.” He said the goal is to send a message to these offenders that CPS is not going to give them any room to breath. “We know they are causing problems, so until they change their ways or leave the community, we are going to be their worse nightmare. That is what the public expects and we want the bad guys to expect that too.” With regards to the objective of assisting vulnerable individuals within the community, LaGrange said this is one he will personally take ownership of by getting traction behind the Hub model and engaging stakeholders at seniors’ level. “We can leverage these relationships to obtain funding from wherever we can, to get everyone at the table who has the ability to assist these people and redirect them from the criminal jusLori Larsen, Camrose Booster tice system.” Camrose Police Service Chief Dean LaGrange breaks down In speaking on the third the 2019-2022 Strategic Plan priority: Engaging the ComA meeting of the CPS leadership team, munity and Building Partnerships, consisting of the Chief, staff sergeants and LaGrange said, “Our members are activesergeants, resulted in the creation of spe- ly involved at this point in the community, cific objectives stemming from the high- whether its through coaching or attendlevel initiatives outlined in the plan. “The ing events such as the Law Enforcement initiatives feed objectives and the objec- Torch Relay which is a great cause, and tives support the priorities,” explained they are good at that, but what else can LaGrange, adding that it was also vital we do?” for every member, from the Chief down to He suggested other community initiathe newest constable, to take ownership tives that offer residents an opportunity on the initiatives. to meet with members of CPS and have “Not only does that provide a way to positive interaction. “It’s a great way to track and monitor our progress, but it build those relationships with the commuengages these individuals so that they nity and enhance that trust and accountunderstand the work that they do on the ability.

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.

We sing because we are able Submitted

If you love to sing in close community with others, give SingAble a try! A new addition to the family of choirs at the University of Alberta’s Augustana campus, SingAble is an inclusive community choir for singers with all abilities and levels of experience. It’s for those who love to sing and have had much experience, as well as for those who would like to discover their own unique voice outside of the shower or the car when driving home from work. “We welcome individuals from all ages and stages of life to discover their unique voice through the exploration of music drawn from traditional, folk and contemporary styles,” said SingAble director Dr. Ardelle Ries. SingAble was formed in the fall of 2018 as a partnership between the University of Alberta and Camrose Association for Community Living (CAFCL) with the mandate of giving everyone in the community, including those with disabilities and exceptionalities, a way of exploring and expressing their musical talents in a meaningful and rewarding way through song. All members are valued, regardless of ability background, ethnicity or socioeconomic status. “I appreciate the opportunity that SingAble provides for four generations of my family to sing together,” said chorister Mardell Olson. “I often have my 87-year-old mother sitting on one side of me and a young granddaughter on the other. During every SingAble choir session I witness so many moments of unbridled enthusiasm, joy and mutual support that I always leave feeling inspired.” In its first year SingAble worked on more than 60 songs. The weekly rehearsals always began with a song acknowledging the land on which Augustana sits as Treaty 6 territory, and always ended with a moving Irish folk blessing. In between, director Ries, a passionate music educator, advocate for and researcher of multigenerational and inclusion singing, did a masterful job of teaching musical concepts while creating community. The choir even wrote and recorded its own anthem: “We love to sing because we are able; we lift our voices proud and strong; and we will sing together without

SingAble also hosted a World Singing Day event in the fall of 2018 and a Music Heals Day event this past March. In the upcoming season, SingAble members will lead a number of community carol sings at the Bailey Theatre and, as well, with the Camrose and District Community Band. These spirited gatherings will take place for the public to attend before Christmas. In addition to the support from the U of A and CAFCL, SingAble has enjoyed tremendous support from the Battle River Community Foundation, the Rotary Club of Camrose, the Singing the Circle legacy fund, and individual community donors. The choir is facilitated by research students and students in U of A Augustana’s Community Service Learning program, whose work is crucial to its overall success. For one U of A Augustana student, Jay Haukenfrers, SingAble affirmed her career path in music therapy. “Through SingAble I was able to make connections with some amaz-

ing people, and for a short while every week forget all the stress and assignments of university and just sing for fun,” said Jay. “It renewed my passion for music and choir.” The idea for SingAble came from the concept that everyone is important, with a right to unique ways of expression. “The beauty of SingAble is that it gives everyone a voice no matter who they are and no matter what their ability,” explained SingAble member Dan Jensen, who provides support to people with disabilities. “When we give people a voice and listen to all the voices around us we are all better off.” Cristina Nielsen, one of SingAble’s most enthusiastic members, said SingAble has allowed her to be a better role model for her peers at CAFCL. “I am more confident in my ability to sing,” said Cristina, “and when I leave SingAble each night I leave with a bright smile on my face.” SingAble will be meeting in the Augustana Faith and Life Centre chapel every Tuesday from Oct. 1 to Dec. 10 and from Feb. 4 to April 14. Rehearsals are held from 6:45 to 8 p.m. and tuition is free. To register on the online form visit www.cafcl.ca/ singable-registration/ or call the CAFCL office at 780-672-0257.
