City hosts Canada Day fun

By Lori Larsen

The City of Camrose Recreation and Culture department is planning some fun and exciting events to help residents celebrate Canada’s 154th birthday.

Camrose has joined other municipalities in and around Central Alberta in being part of a 2021 Canada Day Activity Booklet, outlining a host of different activities including recipes, instructions for crafts and goodies and some fun colouring pages. As well, links are provided to the participating municipalities, so you are able to check out the specific activities in each municipality.

A digital copy of the booklet is available at camrose.ca/canadaday and a print copy of the booklet will be handed out on June 29 with a Canada Day Treat Pack.

The City has prepared Canada Day Treat Packs containing the activity booklet, some sweets supplied by a local business, coupons from local businesses, Canada Day and City of Camrose swag, a Camrose Public Library postcard containing fun activities, and chalk which can be used for the Chalk Your Walk contest.

The packs will be available on a first-come, first-served basis on Tuesday, June 29 from 3 p.m. until 6 p.m. outside the Chuck MacLean Arts Centre.

“We will be outside with the kits so residents can just drive up and we

will hand them out. If they can’t make that time, they can call us or stop in and we can hand one out (while supplies last),” explained City of Camrose Recreation and Culture manager Tanya Pattullo.

To kick off the celebrations early, the City has developed two family fun contests in which people of all ages can participate, beginning with the Canada Day I Spy contest.

“This will be similar to the Easter Egg Hunt contest,” noted Pattullo.

Residents are encouraged to take a stroll in City parks or on the trails and look for well hidden posters (approximately 8” x 11”) depicting fun icons of Canada, such as the Canada Goose, Maple Leaf and

others. To qualify for the contest, participants need to take a photograph of five different signs and then email them to recreation@ camrose.ca.

The contest began on June 24 and will end on July 8.

The second exciting contest is the Chalk Your Walk, which also began on June 28 and runs until July 8. Decorate your driveway or sidewalk with chalk art, then send photos of your artwork to recreation@ camrose.ca.

“We are asking people to do artwork representing Canada Day,” said Pattullo.

After July 8, random draws will be made for prizes donated by local businesses.

Unmasked

It’s going to feel weird.

In just two days, we’ll no longer have to wear masks or keep our distance when we’re in public settings.

It feels surreal.

Just a few short weeks ago, at the end of May, schools and restaurants were closed. In public settings, we were required to wear masks and be two metres away from one

another.

Now, in just a few days, we can be out and about, no masks, no social distancing, eating and talking together, maybe doing sports or dancing or walking together…

Like most of us, I’m looking forward to seeing family and friends “in real life”. But to my surprise, after 16 months of isolation, saying, “I’ll be glad when I can be with family and friends in person again,” I’m not sure I’m ready!

Two things are going to change.

First, the mask thing. I think I’m going to feel weird, being out in public without a mask.

I’ll appreciate not having my glasses fog up above the mask and not getting a sweaty face under the mask. On the other hand, I’m going to feel exposed with my entire bare face hanging out.

A second big change: we won’t have to meet on Zoom unless we really want to.

A friend described what some of us have experienced. She said that when she was on business Zoom calls, she dressed in business attire from the waist up.

But, she said, “There’s been no such thing as pants. For 16 months, I’ve worn nothing but sweats.”

Once again, we’ll have to be presentable from the waist down. ***

Not everyone is thrilled about the end of the restrictions.

I’ve spoken with two people who are apprehensive.

By now, they are used to not being out and about, not having to deal with other people in their private space, and not having to be with crowds of people in public spaces.

They are not looking forward to “normal” again.

I’ve also heard from people who are apprehensive about whether we are opening up too quickly too soon.

Guess time will tell if that turns out to be a problem. ***

For some reason, knowing that in just a few days we won’t have to wear masks, my flitting brain has fixated on the word “unmasking”.

And that took my flitting brain to a comic book, radio and TV hero from my childhood. If you’re in your 60s or older, you’ll remember him: the Lone Ranger.

The Lone Ranger was a man who always wore a mask over his eyes. In Old West towns, with his partner Tonto, he stopped bad guys and saved the day. At the end of every program, after the Lone Ranger and Tonto had finished their daring deeds and galloped away, someone would ask, “Who was that masked man?”

Flashback: Once a long time ago on a winter day, I was getting my hair cut at a women’s hair salon. After I arrived, I discovered that my wallet was not in my purse.

Then I figured out that I must have left it on the kitchen table before I left home.

I phoned my partner and asked if he would please get my wallet and bring it to me at the salon.

Apparently, the idea of stepping into a women’s hair salon was intimidating.

About half an hour later, he arrived–with his parka hood up and wearing a mask that covered his lower face.

Without saying a word, he saw me, handed me the wallet, turned around and disappeared.

After he left, the hair dresser asked, “Who was that masked man?”

We giggled for about five minutes. ***

I’m curious. Are you uneasy about anything as we open up after 16 months of lockdown? What are you most looking forward to? What’s changed for you and how have you changed during this unprecedented time? ***

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.

Ditch draft

Ja s o n Kenney a n nou nces, “ Pa rents know best,” as he withdraws the 2021 Draft Curriculum from consideration. No, sorry.

That’s what he said when passing legislation to allow schools to proliferate outside the public school system while being f inanced largely by the public purse.

Now thousands of parents are screaming at him to #Ditch the Draft, but instead of addressing the criticisms, he throws taxpayer dollars into promotions to convince you the draft curriculum is wonderful. The UCP is vowing that the K-6 curriculum will be in place in fall 2022, and that standardized testing in every grade will follow shortly thereafter.

Teacher s c a n not stop this draft, although they’d like to. They won’t go on strike to protest. Curriculum is not an actionable item.

They won’t ignore the bad stuff and teach only the reasonable stuff.

They are bound by law to teach the curriculum. And standardized testing will be in place to make sure that’s exactly what they do.

Parents: by eliminating teachers from the development process, the UCP has placed the onus on you to vet the curriculum. If that makes you uncomfortable or seems overwhelming, remember who put you in this position. You can still find the draft curriculum and feedback button online at https:// curriculum.learnalberta.ca.

Choose a g rade where you have a child.

You will know how they think. That’s important because so many outcomes are said to be age inappropriate. Before you star t, establish some guiding questions.

Perhaps ask yourself, “Is this really do-able with this age group? ” “Can this much material really be taught in one year? ” “W hy are there so many facts to

be memorized in K- 6 even in art and music? ” My favorite g uiding questions are, “Is this really an essential learning for my child? ” “Is it so essential that I agree they should be evaluated and graded on this outcome? ”I suggest you look at the social draft curriculum as the canary in the coal mine.

All the things that are wrong with social studies: age inappropriateness, too much material, white settler point of view in the history, errors in fact, parts of the curriculum copied from Wikipedia, important themes missing and questionable material inserted, and so much more…are these problems hiding in the other subjects too?

Read the draft curriculum. I believe you will join the distressed parents and grandparents now telling the UCP: Enough, stop, we demand a rewrite.

Karen Green, Sherwood Park Cancel culture

The cancel culture activities of defacing and vandalizing statues and places of worship, arson, removing statues, attempting to overthrow election results, renaming schools /universities /streets / buildings etc. appear to be running amok fueled by social media. Hindsight provides us with the luxury of being able to legitimize such activities in futile attempts to right apperceived past wrongs.

William Bullitt, the A merican ambassador to France, was a member of Woodrow Wilson’s team negotiating the terms of reference for the Treaty of Versailles in 1919. Bullitt predicted more than a dozen global conf licts that occurred in the 20th and 21st century that were the direct result of errors in judgement made in those first six months of 1919. So... what did we learn? Did behaviours change?

Hopefully, the “cancel culture movement” and apologetic politicians will take stock and take to heart the

wise quote of former Israeli Prime Minister, Golda Meir; “One cannot and must not try to erase the past merely because it does not fit the present.”

In this rapid, ever cha ng ing world we live in…one can only speculate upon what future cancel culture attacks some decades hence might take place aga i nst apperceived mistakes /mishaps / lapses in judgement /errors that are occurring currently.

Lynn Clark, Camrose Conversion therapy

Federal Bill C - 6 passed third reading this week in Parliament and is headed to the Senate. Bill C- 6 will amend the criminal code to prohibit activities related to conversion therapy. Conversion therapy is defined as practices, treatments or services designed to change an individual’s sexual orientation to heterosexual, or gender identity to cisgender, or to reduce non-heterosexual sexual attraction or sexual behavior.

While I was happy to see this bill move forward with a strong majority vote, I couldn’t help but notice that 63 MP ’s voted against, includ ing ou r own Damien Kurek. To quote Dr. Kris Wells, Canadian research chair for the Public Understanding of Sexual and Gender Minority Youth at MacEwan University, “All forms of conversion therapy are rooted in an anti-LGBTQ2 ideology. If you love and accept people for who they are, there is no need to try and change them. There are no acceptable forms of conversion therapy. There must be a complete and comprehensive ban in place.” I would invite Mr. Kurek to publicly provide to us, his constituents, the rationale behind his decision to vote against this bill.

An absolute gem...

The perfect starter home…

It’s affordable. It’s located in a quiet, mature neighbourhood, close to schools. It’s just close enough to our wonderful downtown amenities to be convenient, but just far enough away to avoid the noise and traffic. The property backs onto a beautiful green space, offering perhaps one of the most scenic views our City has to offer – lush foliage, a rambling creek, wildlife and paved walking trails, right out the backyard.

The home itself is a thoughtfully designed 1,002 sq. ft. bi-level. It features a bright, welcoming, open floor plan, complete with upgraded interior finishings, including gorgeous quartz countertops. Two spacious bedrooms are sure to please. The home is currently under construction, to be finished shortly in the weeks to come.

Amazingly affordable at just

City hosts Canada Day celebrations Continued from page 2

The fun doesn’t end there. On July 1, the big day itself, residents are asked to colour the City in pride by decorating their homes, yards, and even themselves in red and white to commemorate this amazing country.

On July 1, the Canada Day Convoy will get underway at 10 a.m. at the Camrose Fire Department Station. Be ready to cheer on the convoy consisting of agencies such as the Royal Canadian Legion Branch No. 57 (Camrose), Camrose Police Service and Camrose Fire Department.

The convoy will stop at some community parks along the way so people can enjoy local entertainment provided by Travis Dolter and his band and the Rose City Rollers. “We are going to have City councillors at the parks handing out goodies too,” said Pattullo.

The following is the proposed schedule for the convoy: • 10 a.m. – Depart Fire Hall • 10:30 a.m. – Century Meadows Park • 11 a.m. – Duggan Pond Park • 11:30 a.m. – Duggan Ball Diamond

The Battle River Community Foundation is now receiving applications for grants from our Community Fund and Field of Interest Funds.

Grants are made to organizations operating in east central Alberta that are recognized as qualified donees by the Canada Revenue Agency. This includes registered charitable organizations and municipalities. Community organizations that are not registered charities may apply in partnership with a qualified donee. Forms for partnership applications are in addition to application forms and can be found on our website.

Organizations seeking funds must demonstrate a strong and committed volunteer board of directors, fiscal responsibility, and effective management of resources. Projects that impact the greatest number of individuals possible with a modest investment of funds are preferred. Grants are made for definite purposes and for projects covering a specific time period.

In general, grants are approved for projects not met by other funding sources.

In addition to unrestricted grants available from the Community Fund, some Funds provide grants targeted to projects reflecting donors’ interests. They include Animal Welfare, Arts, Brain Injury Prevention, Education, the Humanities, Health and Wellness (including Mental and Emotional Health and Wellness), Literacy, Music, Nutrition and Food Security, Outdoor Education, Palliative Care, Preservation and Protection of the Environment, Preservation of History, Prevention of Family Violence, Services for Individuals with Special Needs, Sustainable Agriculture, Youth Athletics and Youth Projects and Programs.

• 12:15 p.m. – École Camrose Composite High School • 12:45 p.m. – City of Camrose Recreation Centre.

To round up Canada Day, but also in celebration of the tenacity of citizens moving through this tumultuous time, the City of Camrose is happy to bring back a night sky show of fireworks.

“The fireworks will be held in Rudy Swanson Park at twilight,” said Pattullo.

“But our fireworks guy indicates that they will be visible 1.2 kilometres away, so if anyone is uncomfortable coming down amidst crowds, they will still be able to see them from that distance.”

All Canada Day and other City-operated activities will follow Alberta Health Services orders and recommendations at the time of the events and will proceed under the lifting of restrictions by the Government of Alberta on July 1.

“There is a little something for everyone,” said Pattullo. “But even if someone doesn’t feel comfortable participating in any of the events, they can go online and get the booklet and have a ton of fun with all those activities.”

Scholarship for Medical School Students in an accredited Canadian medical school taking a program leading to an MD degree, who have graduated from a high school in the Battle River Regional Division, are invited to apply for a scholarship from the Rudy and Flora Baker Scholarship Fund.

Application deadline is Monday, August 16, 2021.

Up to $2,650 in total is available to be awarded to one or more recipients.

An application form is available on the Battle River Community Foundation website, www.brcf.ca by clicking on the grants link, or by contacting the Battle River Community Foundation at Box 1122, Camrose, Alberta, T4V 4E7, by email at brcfoundation@gmail.com or by telephone at 780-679-0449.

Sound estate planning can ensure these hard-earned assets are passed on to your family according to your wishes, without interference. Talk to us today about developing a plan that makes sense for you and your loved ones.

By Camrose Seniors Coalition

With glorious weather alongside the beginning of the easing of provincial restrictions, we had an opportunity to meet some seniors in our community during Seniors’ Week, June 7 to 13. The Camrose Seniors Coalition gave away 100 wellness bags to those who happened to find us on June 7, and now we have seen how much everyone enjoyed participating by walking around Mirror Lake, contemplating bench conversation starters signs, taking the Community Bus for the Scavenger Hunt, stopping by SOS for coffee and cookies, or used their Oleo’s coupons for a delicious treat.

It was wonderful to make contact with so many seniors out enjoying each other’s company, as well as the Mirror Lake pathway. Everyone I encountered during Seniors’ Week indicated that they were pleased with being recognized and were tickled to receive the wellness bags, coffee, cookies, chalk and/or bubbles. Folks talked of enjoying the conversation starters on the benches, commenting on the novel approach to engage our community. The warm weather had people outside and reconnecting

The laughter and smiles were just as bright as the spring sunshine.

As quoted from the summer student. “First of all, being able to participate in the Seniors’ Week allowed me to observe the strong sense of community that is prevalent within

Ask the A

CHIEF Dean LaGrange Chief of Police Camrose Police Service Question:

What is the process for dealing with unsightly yards with respect to garbage and abandoned vehicles?

Answer:

The City of Camrose has a bylaw to address this issue.

Although the bylaw officer is attached to the Camrose Police Service for certain efficiencies, the City runs the Bylaw program. That said, if there is a property that requires attention due to excessive garbage and is in an unkempt state, an online complaint or phone-in complaint can be directed towards the bylaw officer.

This bylaw is in place to ensure a certain standard is met and maintained, so as to not negatively impact other property values and keep our City beautiful.

the seniors of Camrose.

It filled me with joy to watch how many seniors came by on Monday to pick up their seniors’ wellness bags and have a chance to talk with others in the community that they might not have seen in awhile due to COVID-19. The reach of this event extended past Monday, as we had seniors coming in all week who either heard about the event from a friend, or from the signs placed outside. They were all asking about the activities and if we had any wellness bags still available. This event also increased tourism, as the Seniors’ Week stand attracted more foot traffic, allowing the Visitor Centre to have more visitors coming in asking for tourism advice on Monday than any day previously.

“In future years, the summer staff here at the Visitor Information Centre would love to be included in Seniors’ Week celebrations. Who knows, maybe we will have more of the same with some added activities, such as a bocci tournament at Mirror Lake Centre, Seniors’ Expo, free ice cream, conversation starters, music and dancing.”

Camrose Police Service, then and now

By Lori Larsen

Camrose Police Service (CPS) celebrated 65 years of serving and protecting Camrose on July 1. While over those 65 years vast changes have occurred in how policing service is delivered, the underlying mission of CPS– to provide public safety through policing excellence– remains the same.

Currently, CPS is comprised of 62 employees, both sworn and civilian, a long way from what began the force in 1956, when there were six sworn members, including the Chief of Police and no administrative support.

In 1955, Camrose became a city and began future planning, which included its own police force established in 1956, with the first Chief of Police, Howard Martin, who had been with the RCMP for 23 years.

Following Martin came Chief E.V. Christianson; Duff Franklin; Vic Redekopp, who was appointed Acting Chief until the service hired Bill Bradshaw as Chief; Marshall Chalmers; Darrell Kambeitz; Deputy Chief Lee Foreman, who was appointed Acting Chief until Mark Neufeld took over as Chief, leaving the service in 2019.

Currently serving as the eighth Camrose Chief of Police, Dean LaGrange came to Camrose with 26 years of police service with Calgary Police Service, retiring as Inspector, then 18 months with the RCMP in Red Deer, where he held the position of Inspector of Operational Support.

The first sworn members in 1956 consisted of Constables Duff Franklin, Charlie Starcheski, Tom Coultis, Robert Bell and Bob McFeeley.

Today, the Police Service is 30 sworn members strong (including Chief).

On July 1, 1956, at 12:01 a.m., Constable Tom Coultis began the first shift for Camrose Police (now Camrose Police Service).

“When I first started, I came with military background,” said Tom, noting he had joined the army under the pretence of being 16 (he was only 14), and had served 11 years up to the time he joined Camrose Police (20 in total). “Chief Martin knew me and my background, so he pretty much hired me on the spot.”

Training back then for individual police officers took approximately one month to cover criminal, traffic and liquor laws, as well as City bylaws.

Today, a successful candidate with CPS will undergo six months of training with Edmonton or Calgary Police Service, which includes: criminal, provincial and municipal law, arrest and detention procedures, firearms, physical fitness and arrest tactics, officer safety,

investigative techniques and court procedures, human behaviour, crime prevention and diversity and inclusiveness. “The rookie officer then hits the street, working an additional 12 months under the watchful eye of a training officer before going out on their own,” explained Cam-

unmarked vehicles for patrol, K9, and traffic.

“The average cost to completely outfit a police vehicle, including decaling, high tech computer systems, emergency sound and light bars, cameras, gauges, CO2 monitors and prisoner systems, is now in the range of $60,000

tunic (overcoat), as well as our forage hat. If we were in the office, it was okay to remove the overcoat.”

While the authoritarian image of the police uniform has remained over the course of history, the uniform and subsequent gear has changed drastically.

When CPS was first established, the uniform, albeit militant in style, consisted of the typical attire of buttondown shirt, trousers, tie, forage hat, boots or shoes and a Sam Brown utility belt used to carry the officer’s firearm, handcuffs, flashlight and perhaps utility knife.

Times have changed in order to

car and flashlight, and my trusty dog Butch always accompanied me,” noted Coultis. “We were not issued any sidearms until about four months in. I remember they hired these two officers from England who didn’t even know how to use a gun, so I was put in charge of training them. That was quite the experience,” laughed Coultis.

As the need increased to ensure officer and public safety, sidearms became a standard piece of equipment.

Years ago, firepower was simpler, albeit much heavier, and a lot less reliable. “The .38 revolver was housed in what was referred to as a widowmaker,” noted former Camrose Deputy Chief Lee Foreman, in a previous interview. “All it had was a flap that buttoned down, and that would hold your

meet the increasing need for officer safety. The uniform, while still consisting of the basic clothing, now includes bulletproof vests and a duty belt that carries the officer’s handgun and ammunition, handcuffs, flashlight, radios, baton, and handheld protection devices such as pepper spray, taser and Narcan spray dispensers. This often adds up to an additional 15 pounds to the officer’s carrying weight.

In the formative years, the officers were not issued any firearms.

“When I first started, I had to use my own clothes,

revolver that had six rounds in it. Then you would carry another 12 rounds that you would feed in one at a time.”

Now the Glocks have 16 rounds in them and officers carry an extra 30 rounds.

Another integral part of the police uniform is the badge or crest, which identifies it uniquely to the individual service. For Camrose, the badge has undergone three changes in the history of the service to the most recent design change implemented in July 2020.

The first police station was housed in the back of a former church, with City Hall housed in the front, located at the corner of 51 St. & 50 Ave., easy access for police officers to complete their main duties of foot patrol in the downtown area.

The station itself consisted of a Chief’s office, a small open area and two portable cells in comparison to the facility CPS calls home today, which can house ten prisoners, has eight offices, not including a telecommunications centre, a fitness area, bull pen area for patrol officers, area for major crimes, parking garage, 10 cells, a board/interview room, designated space for Victim Services interviews, along with additional space within the City that accommodates forensic identification services and property storage.

Despite the vast difference in size now compared to 1956, CPS is quickly outgrowing the existing building.

Lori Larsen, Camrose Booster Above: The restored Camrose Police Service Car, a 1956 Dodge Crusader is still used in parades and for ceremonial purposes.

Right: The newer vehicles are maxed out with necessary equipment to effectively do the job.

rose Police Service Inspector Rene Brisson.

Although the minimum qualifications state a recruit must have a Grade 12 education to be competitive, most officers have university degrees. This is complemented throughout their careers by “In Service” training that is required for professional growth and knowledge.

In the beginning, Camrose Police purchased one police vehicle, a 1956 Dodge Crusader, for $2,169.34, which was shared by all members.

The current CPS fleet consists of eight marked/

per unit,” said CPS Chief of Police Dean LaGrange. “Most of these units run day and night, and are cycled out of service between 180,000 and 200,000 km.”

Coultis still proudly dons his first Camrose Police uniform to ride in that restored 1956 Dodge Crusader police car during the Kickin’ County Parade held annually (with the exception of 2020-21 due to COVID).

“We had to wear the complete uniform,” remarked Coultis. “The buttoned-up shirt, tie, trousers and the Lori Larsen, Camrose Booster Tom Coultis, first police constable for Camrose Police, dons the original uniform he wore for duty.

Rural Summer in the Park returns

By Murray Green

Over the past 25 years, up to 450 Camrose County children who live in or near Bawlf, Bittern Lake, Ferintosh, Hay Lakes, Kingman or New Norway have had the opportunity to attend the popular Summer in the Park Program each year.

“This Rural Community Day Camp is free to all participants, is operated by the Rural Community Program of Camrose and District Support Services, and is supported by the Battle River Community Foundation,” explained Clarence Hastings, rural community prog ram director with Camrose and District Support Services.

Children meet in the park from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. for arts, crafts, games, leadership and activities.

“Children five years

of age or older will learn a variety of skills in the one-week camps. Skills are emphasized in a casual and lively learning environment and having fun with peers in a safe, fun, tolerant and respectful way.”

The program begins in Bawlf on July 5 for the week, and then moves to Bittern Lake on July 12, Kingman (July 19 to 23), Ferintosh (Aug. 3 to 6), Hay Lakes (Aug. 9 to 13) and then New Norway follows (Aug. 16 to 20).

Camrose and area residents are in for a heelkicking, barrel-rolling good time during Oktoberstock, a new community event taking place at the Camrose Regional Exhibition (CRE) on Sept. 18.

The event was made possible after the CRE was successful in receiving $70,750 in grant funds from the Community Initiatives Program (CIP) from Government of Alberta.

The grant application

was sent to the Government of Alberta in January of this year by the CRE in hopes of launching this new and exciting event.

CRE received funds from the Ministry of Culture, Multiculturism and Status of Women towards the overall project costs.

“We are delighted to have success with our granting program again,” said CRE Board of Directors president Brent Byers.

“As an agricultural society and charity, the

importance of these grants from the Government of Alberta is paramount to launch new community events that could not be done otherwise.

“This funding is ‘provisionally awarded’ based on health restrictions in September, but allows us to finally launch what we believe will be Camrose’s new favorite event.”

Oktoberstock is planned for Saturday, September 18, beginning at 11:30 a.m. on the outdoor grounds of the CRE, and is building up to be a fun-filled, familyfriendly festival.

“This one-day festival will focus on local artists and a family area during the day,” explained CRE executive director Dianne Kohler.

“Then it will transition into a Bavarian Oktoberfest celebration in the evening, ending with a guest DJ. “We are also looking forward to highlighting as many local food and beverage vendors as we can fit in the space.”

City of Camrose Council approved the proposed addition of a 100’ long mural with varying heights extending 13 to 26 feet at 4904-50 Street in Downtown Camrose.

The mural, proposed

by Colleen McLeod, will be placed on the south wall of the building adjacent to 49th Avenue.

The subject of the mural will depict the original building (of that location) in 1950, including nightscape oil painting, with cars of that era and people dressed in that era, strolling the street.

According to City of Camrose Planning and Development manager Aaron Leckie, the installation of the mural is consistent with the requirements of the Downtown Area Redevelopment Plan and, with Council’s approval, will form part of the conditions of approval for the Development Permit.

“It is quite exciting,” said Leckie, in reference to another mural adding to the uniqueness and beautification of Downtown Camrose.

“We have quite a collection of these projects coming up.”

Hot meats and savoury side dishes, fresh salads, breads and cold cuts.

Mask bylaw remains until province removes masking restrictions

By Lori Larsen

During the June 21 City of Camrose regular council meeting, council heard three readings and approved an amendment

to Bylaw 3179-21 (Mask Bylaw in City of Camrose) to have the bylaw remain in full force and effect until such time as the Province of Alberta

officially ends the provincial health order requirements for mandatory masks in all public places, or amends the provincial health order

to require masks in only certain public places and institutions.

At this point, the province has clarif ied that masks will still be

worn on public transportation which, for Camrose, would include taxis and the Community Bus. Continued on page 15

City mowing ramped up on Camrose Drive

By Lori Larsen

The City of Camrose Parks department keeps busy with mowing throughout the City, including the berms along Camrose Drive.

While some of the areas along Camrose Drive were opted to be kept natural with City council’s approval, other areas are subject to some intense mowing.

In a motion made during a council meeting in June 2017, council approved the following options for Camrose Drive:

(1) Camrose Drive– 50 Street to Bridge.

North Side: Mow the area from the fence down to the tree line, and mow two swaths (12 feet) from the sidewalk up.

South Side: Leave the south side of the road naturalized, and plant trees on the undeveloped area as budget permits.

(2) Camrose Drive– From Bridge to Valleyview Drive.

North Side: Cut two

swaths (12 feet) from the sidewalk up and leave the remainder as is. Continue to mow the north slope of the berm.

South Side: Mow from the fence line down to the sidewalk. The area from the sidewalk to the curb is to remain as is.

Plant trees as budget permits.

(3) Camrose Drive/ 68 Street–From Parkview Drive to Enevold.

North Side: Berm to be

cut on both sides. Replace any dead trees as budget permits.

South Side: West of Parkview Drive to 62 Street to be mowed.

South Side: West of 62 Street to 68 Street–Leave the undeveloped areas as naturalized and plant trees in the future as budget permits.

68 Street, West Side, Adjacent to Enevold Quarter–Leave the undeveloped areas as naturalized and plant trees in the future as budget permits.

Camrose Police Service over 65 years Continued from page 10

“The 40-year-old radio station that we have converted to a Police HQ has run its course and plans are underway to build a modern facility, reflective of community needs,” said Chief LaGrange.

CAD (Computer Aided Dispatch), radio, cellphone, email, GPS and dashcam/bodycams.

Leadership positions are no longer “off-duty” or “unavailable”, as 24/7 connectivity is more than an expectation, it is a requirement.”

Lori Larsen, Camrose Booster Camrose Police Station’s current location is quickly outgrowing the needs of the agency.

“Gone are the days where a police station is viewed as a fortified bunker from where officers mysteriously deploy.

Community engagement, transparency, inclusion and diversity are critical components to a successful democratic policing model.”

There is no doubting the impact technology has had on policing over 65 years. During the first years of CPS, telephone calls to patrol were forwarded to the patrol officer’s personal residence, where their spouse would answer them, drive down to the police station and activate a red light mounted on a power pole outside the station.

“It was the member’s responsibility to keep an eye on the light on the pole. It was visible from just about anywhere in the downtown core.

If it was lit, he knew there was a call to answer,” said Coultis.

On the other hand, Brisson described technology now.

“Today’s police officers are connected through technology by

So much has changed for CPS over the 65 years, including members, location and additions to the service.

In 1993, CPS received accreditation with CALEA (Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies) and has strived to maintain the highest of standards in public safety and police service to the community.

Today, the service provides the community with services far beyond what could have been imagined back in 1956.

CPS operations include: patrol, K-9, traffic, and Major Crimes. Operational support consists of the 911 Communications Centre, which provides emergency calling service for Camrose and a large surrounding area, bylaw, school resource, crime prevention, victim services and a slew of community outreach programs and initiatives.

Looking ahead, the Camrose Police Service continues on a trajectory of change and

growth with preparation for the implementation of the Next Generation 911 Communications Centre. As well, CPS is evolving to respond to community needs with the creation of a PACT (Police and Crisis Team). “This is where a police officer partners with a mental health nurse, dealing with people in crisis who need help, diverting them from the criminal justice system if at all possible,” said Brisson.

Chief LaGrange noted that Camrose Police Service has evolved from its humble beginnings 65 years ago.

“The changes in legislation, technology and community expectations have required CPS to change as well.

Chief Dean LaGrange

“One thing that has not changed is our commitment to keeping our community safe through professional, unbiased and ethical practice,” remarked Chief LaGrange. “I applaud those officers who came before us, and I commit to building upon that foundation, maintaining the relationship with our community.

I am extremely proud of the men and women, sworn and civilian, who make up the Camrose Police Service. We will continue to stand watch, 24/7, 365 days a year, fulfilling our oath to you, the citizens of Camrose.”

Eighteen summers

I recently came across something on the internet that made my heart drop.

Like, I think it literally stopped beating for a moment. I squeezed the life back into it, put it back into my chest and read the article called, “We only have 18 summers together with our kids,” which is about making the most of the time we have with our children in the summer. With my kids being almost 12, 10 and seven, that means only seven, nine and 12 summers to go! How did this happen?

Does the summer after turning 18 count?

I had been questioning if I had planned too much for the summer. With the province easing restrictions on activities, we signed up for overnight summer camp, a morning nature camp and a four-day vacation Bible school. Plus, we have some family holidays including an extended canoe trip planned and will be baby-sitting two nieces for 13 days spread throughout the summer. Was it all too much? Should I feel signing up remorse?

I definitely don’t have the answers, but I am hoping the summer will be a nice balance between getting out there and having fun activities planned, to being able to sleep in, read, lay in the hammock and hold hands and jump through the sprinkler together.

My boys like to fight if they have too much unoccupied time. Once I actually asked my kids if they made a plan for each day for two things to fight over, one way to get hurt, one thing to complain about, and one fun thing to do. They thought that notion was pretty funny. I was serious though–some of the things they fight about are so ridiculous that they must be pre-planned. One day we even banned them from saying each other’s names because we were so tired of hearing them called out in exasperated tones by each other.

We usually have a bucket list for the summer that includes things like jumping off a dock at a lake, finding a strawberry u-pick or exploring a new swimming pool.

When I was a kid, my mom baby-sat two boys all summer, who became like spare brothers to me. It wasn’t until I was a teenager that I realized that my mom had been paid to take care of them; I must have thought they just liked to come over. My summers were filled with outdoor games and snacks straight from the garden. We regularly woke up in the morning to discover that our playmates were asleep on the couches, dropped off before their mom’s early morning shift. Honestly, I don’t remember even coming inside to eat lunch. I remember being outside constantly, inventing new games and exploring our farm.

When my sister-in-law asked about watching my nieces for a few days this summer, I thought it would be a way for my kids to have a bit of what I had growing up. I noticed last summer that my kids’ inclination was to spend lots of time inside when we were home and I really had to force them outdoors. I don’t really want to be jumping in the sprinkler alone, honest. With cousins to play with, they will hopefully spend more time outside.

I tell them that it is only warm here for approximately three months; that leaves nine months of cold weather for playing Lego inside.

One summer memory that stands out for my kids was a trip we made with my parents to a lake for a few days. We arrived late, after my parents’ motorhome had mechanical problems. We ate a late supper, and then it was technically bedtime. Except it was hot and beautiful out. We changed into swim suits, packed a bag with towels, somehow held onto pool noodles plus our bikes and set off to swim in the lake. This stands out to them and they say, “Remember that summer when we went swimming even though it was bedtime?” That right there is the magic of summer.

We may only have 18 summers together in the same house, but I intend to make the most of each one. Staying up late for a dip at the lake? Spontaneous trip for ice cream? Jumping off a dock so much times that our arms can barely push ourselves back onto the dock for more?

Yes please, I can’t wait!

Vassberg receives ’50 Morris Minor car

By Murray Green

Marvin Vassberg of Bawlf owns a 1950 Morris Minor car. He has been rebuilding the car over a number of years.

“When my sister was 16 years old, I helped her buy this car. She passed away 10 years ago, so I got the car back again,” shared Marvin.

“I found a new fuel tank for it, the car has all new tires on it, I rebuilt the motor. I haven’t got it working the way I want it to yet.

It has a signal light that comes out on each side that slides out and has reflectors on it. This car still needs a lot of work,” explained Marvin.

The Morris Minor is a British economy family car that made its debut at the Earls Court Motor Show, London, on Sept. 20, 1948.

Designed under the leadership of Alec Issigonis, more than 1.6 million were manufactured between 1948 and 1972 in three series: the MM (1948 to 1953), the Series II (1952 to 1956), and the 1000 series (1956 to 1971).

“When you are 85 years old, it takes a little longer to finish it. The car just needs some TLC to get it operating again,” he added.

“My parents used to live four miles from here.

My sister used to go pick them up, fill up with gas and then into Bawlf, and

then went to Edmonton and toured all around. They came back through Bawlf, past the service station and back home, and used $1.17 in gas. That was all the way to Edmonton and back.

Mind you, gas was only

FUN FACTS

The Minor name, intended for the mid-sized model in Thomas’ planned trio of new cars, was adopted for what would become the smallest postwar Morris.

The original Minor MM included a pair of four-seat saloons, two-door and (from 1950) a four-door, and a convertible four-seat Tourer. The front torsion bar suspension was the almost-unibody construction.

Although the Minor was originally designed to accept a flat-four engine, late in the development stage it was replaced by a 918 cc (56 cubic inch) sidevalve inlinefour engine. In 1950, a four-door version was released, initially available only for export. From the start, it featured headlamps faired into the wings rather than set lower down on either side of the grille.

The raised headlight position became standard on all Minors in time for 1951. From the start, the Minor had semaphore-type turn indicators, and subsequent Minor versions persisted with these until 1961. An Autocar magazine road test in 1950 reported that these were “not of the usual self-cancelling type, but incorporate[d] a time-basis return mechanism in a switch below the facia, in front of the driver.”

Another innovation towards the end of 1950 was a water pump (replacing a gravity dependent system).

23 cents a gallon back then,” Marvin recalled.

Initially available as a two-door saloon and tourer (convertible), the range was expanded to include a fourdoor saloon in 1950.

First the all-independent torsion bar suspension was changed for a torsionsprung live rear axle, and this was then substituted by a conventional leafsprung arrangement.

All of Miles Thomas’ suggestions for spreading the cost of developing the new car and broadening the design’s appeal were treated sceptically by the Morris board and vetoed

by Lord Nuffield. It became clear that the only way to overcome the personal and financial obstacles to the project was to adopt a lightly revised version of the Morris Eight’s obsolete side-valve engine.

Thomas resigned his position at Morris Motors over the debacle. Despite the changes, the fundamental principles of Issigonis’ concept–a spacious

cabin, small wheels at each corner, a forward-placed engine, rack and pinion steering, and independent torsion-bar front suspension–remained.

Issigonis’ last-minute size increase and the fit-

ment of the larger-thanplanned sidevalve engine needed to be considered.

While still a small car, the new Morris was no longer the ultra-compact economy car that it had been on the drawing board.

SAVE UP TO

Proud of Canada on July 1

By Damien C. Kurek, MP, Battle River-Crowfoot

There has been much discussion about Canada Day this year, from the impacts of COVID reducing our ability to gather, to the challenges Canadians have in reconciling our history with the discovery of unmarked graves at former residential schools, to the increased division and alienation that many of our citizens feel. Canadians, including myself, are concerned about the direction of our country, but in the midst of these trying times, I am convinced that Canada is worth it.

The challenges we face presently, and the injustices of our past are too often used by a vocal minority who try to attack the very idea of Canada and the aspirations our country should represent. We are seeing the literal tearing down of figures from our past and a concerted attempt to erase it, not just the bad but the good as well—all of which are resulting in talk of Canada Day being cancelled. Canada Day should not just be about a party, parade, and fireworks, it is a chance for Canadians to recognize our nation and all it represents.

Canada is not perfect, nor should we ever suggest that those who led our nation in its past were perfect, but when our brave women and men have defended our country, they fought for freedom and what was right regardless of the debates about our history. There are efforts by many to tear our nation down, divide citizens, and erode the basis of our free and democratic country.

We can and should work towards being better, empower the aspirations of all Canadians, be proud of what we have accomplished, and we can remain united in the midst of an unprecedented time of polarization and division. We can and need to acknowledge our nation’s past injustices, as well as the pain and trauma that was caused, while always taking the opportunity to reaffirm our desire to do better.

Shortly after being sworn in as a Member of Parliament, I learned that a family member who died in the final months of the Second World War would be honoured by his “Book of Remembrance” page being shown in Parliament’s “Hall of Honour”. My second great uncle, like so many others, paid the ultimate sacrifice when donning our nation’s uniform to fight for our country and the values it represents. Not a day has gone by since being elected where the significance of those sacrifices has not been at the top of my mind.

Canadians all over our great nation, from many different backgrounds and perspectives, contribute economically, socially, and culturally to the fabric of our society.

The strength of Canada hinges on the ability of different people, ideas, and regions being able to respect each other under shared values. I am confident that a united Canada will be able to handle any adversity that comes our way, including the need to address present concerns and historical injustices.

We don’t need to cancel Canada Day. I would suggest that doing so takes away from our ability to chart a path forward that reconciles the past with our present and provides a purpose to move forward.

The Camrose Car Cruisers will be holding a Show ’n Shine on Saturday, July 3, on Main Street.

After being cancelled last year, the annual show will be returning with a few changes.

“It will be basically the same as in previous years, except we won’t have prizes, no pictures (for those who enter cars) and no competition, because we haven’t had time to secure sponsors,” said Ken Mah, one of the organizers of the show.

“From 9 a.m. to noon, cars will be arriving downtown to set up their cars.

Public viewers are encouraged to see the show entries between 1 and 5 p.m. Some entries may start leaving after 4 p.m.

Then the cruise around Camrose will begin at 6 p.m.,” Ken informed.

“We thank all of the previous sponsors who have helped us over the years. D & D Septic will be providing porta-potties for people attending the car show. If we have bad weather on July 3, the alternative date will be a week later, on July 10.”

The day will finish with a drive-in movie.

“The movie will be shown at the Camrose Recreation Centre at dusk (about 11 p.m.). The movie is called Blast from the Past.”

Blast from the Past is a 1999 American romantic comedy film directed by Hugh Wilson and starring Brendan Fraser, Alicia Silverstone, Christopher Walken, Sissy Spacek and Dave Foley.

The film focuses on a naive 35-year-old man, Adam Webber, who spent his entire life living in a fallout shelter with his parents. When Adam has to come out of the shelter to get more supplies, he attracts the attentions of Eve Rustikoff.

Martin, Josephine Yvonne August 11, 1928 ~ June 22, 2021 Mrs. Josephine Martin of High River, Alberta passed away at Seasons Retirement Community in High River on June 22, 2021, at the age of 92 years.

Josephine is survived by her beloved partner and best friend, Vincent Treadgold; her sisters Julie Wilby (Phyllis Wood) and Patricia Brooks (George); her children Angela Litwin (Marvin), Ellen Francis (Ron Nadeau), Timothy Lovejoy (Debora) and Yvonne Richards (Mark); her grandchildren Gordon Bohonus of Camrose, AB, Amber Bohonus of Victoria, BC, Natalie Manley of Carrying Place, ON, and Cher and Tyler Lovejoy of Calgary, AB; many dearly loved great-grandchildren; and one great-greatgrandson.

Josephine is predeceased by her late husbands Gerald Lovejoy of Calgary, AB, and Leo Martin of Camrose, AB; as well as her son Paul Lovejoy of Calgary, AB; sons-in-law Al Bohonus of Calgary, AB, and Jim Francis of Brighton, ON; her sister Margaret Weymouth-Wilson (AUS); brothers Ronald Wilby (UK) and Derek Wilby (UK); and sister-in-law Phyllis Wood (Strathroy, ON).

Born in Weymouth, Dorset, Josephine met and married her first husband Gerald Lovejoy in 1948. Together with Gerald’s parents, they ran the family grocers H.G. Lovejoy & Son in Shaftesbury until emigrating to Canada in 1954.

As a Military Wife, Josephine and the family moved frequently in the early years, being stationed at Val Cartier, QC, Sarnia, ON, Petawawa, ON, Zoest, Germany, and Calgary (Currie), AB. While stationed at Currie Base in Calgary, Jo began working at The Westgate Hotel. When the shareholders of The Westgate eyed a new property in Camrose for a new hotel, they asked Jo and soon-to-be husband Leo if they would move to Camrose and be a part of the building, opening, and running of the Norsemen Hotel. So they, along with youngest daughter Yvonne, moved to Camrose in 1978.

Some of Josephine’s best friends and happiest memories are from time spent in Camrose and at the Norsemen Inn. She enjoyed going to the Legion to play darts or watch the pool tournaments, going to BJ’s to play bingo, singing in the Sweet Adelines choir, and was Worthy Grand Matron at the Camrose branch of the Eastern Star.

After retiring from the Norsemen, Jo decided she missed working with the public, so she went back to work at Smitty’s with Keith and Jerome and the team. She greatly enjoyed serving the customers there, and had many fond memories of crazy things like “false teeth” and sharing “nerds” with many of the serving staff and kitchen staff, which included her daughter Yvonne and grandson Gord (Gordy-Guy).

When Leo passed away in 2008, Josephine was saddened to leave Camrose, but High River proved to be one of the more exciting times of her life. Little did she know that Cupid was circling nearby, and she soon discovered the love of her life in Vincent Treadgold.

She was smitten, to be sure, and many times she would say, “I don’t know what I ever did right to deserve him!” Anyone who met them knew right away that they were meant for each other, and they soon became the cutest, sweetest, most inspiring couple on the senior circuit.

After a brief hospitalization, Jo began treatments for skin cancer and in the long months that followed, she looked to Vincent as her source of strength and perseverance. Vincent’s strength truly kept her going, and his love kept her happy to the very end of her long life.

At Josephine’s request, a Private Family Celebration of her Life was held at the Highwood Golf Course on Saturday, June 26, 2021.

Memorial donations may be made in Josephine’s name to the Canadian Cancer Society, Skin Cancer Research.

Bernard Szott Bernard (Bernie) J. Szott was born on June 3, 1940, and passed away peacefully in his sleep on June 24, 2021, at the age of 81 years.

Bernie was born to Peter and Nellie Szott and was raised in the Polska area.

Bernie enjoyed farming on the homestead land and the country lifestyle. It was widely known how particular Bernie was about caring for his property. From a straight fence post, the size of a rock picked in his field, to a stray feather on a lawn, he was always about attention to detail.

Bernie loved being outdoors, spending time with friends on country road trips, fishing or hunting without a rifle. After the passing of Bernie’s father, he chose to support his mother by remaining on the family farm to care for her.

On October 24, 1968, Bernie married Margery Rasko and to this union had two children Rae-Ann Szott of Whitecourt, Blaine (Dana) Szott of Daysland; and grandson Aiden Szott of Whitecourt. Also left to cherish his memory are his siblings Kasper (Mary Ann), Benny (Pat) and Agnes (Lloyd) Lebreque.

Bernie and Marg worked together farming until 2004, when they retired to Daysland.

Bernie was predeceased by his parents Peter and Nellie Szott; siblings Annie Kosinski, Victor Szott, Albin Szott and Lilly Wolokoff.

In the last weeks of Bernie’s life, his wishes were that people remembered him how he was and not as a sick man. His concern was for his loved ones, and through this, his faith in God brought him much peace.

A private family service was held. Interment has taken place in the Polska Cemetery.

Donations in lieu of flowers may be made to Polska Cemetery. To send condolences, please visit www.burgarfuneralhome.com.

George William Buttimer January 10, 1962 ~ June 8, 2021 George William Buttimer of Red Deer, Alberta, formerly of Edberg, passed away peacefully with Val by his side on Tuesday, June 8, 2021, at the Red Deer Hospice, at the age of 59 years.

George is lovingly survived by his wife Val (nee Miner); sister Florrie (John) MacDougall and their children Darryn (Sarah) MacDougall and Christiana MacDougall; as well as several cousins and cherished friends.

George was born in Craik, Saskatchewan on January 10, 1962. On June 23, 2001, George married Val. George was predeceased by his father William on June 25, 1993, and his mother Helen on February 20, 2010.

A funeral service was held at 1:00 p.m. on Tuesday, June 29, 2021, from Burgar Memorial Chapel, Camrose, Alberta.

Interment took place in the Lakeview Cemetery, Edberg, Alberta. Funeral attendance was subject to Alberta Health recommendations.

If family and friends so desire, in lieu of flowers, memorial contributions in George’s memory are gratefully appreciated to the Red Deer Hospice Society (99 Arnot Avenue, Red Deer, Alberta T4R 3S6). To send condolences, please visit www.burgarfuneralhome.com.

October 5, 1948 ~ June 23, 2021 Alan King passed away on June 23, 2021 in Edmonton, Alberta.

He is remembered with great love by his wife Jenny; daughter Rachael (Daniel) and their daughter Lena; and son Michael (Emily) and their children Wyatt, Jemma and Marcus.

Missing him in England are his brother Peter (Lynne); niece Natalie (Paul) and their children Charlotte and Olivia; nephew Simon (Paul); father-in-law Derek; brother-in-law Graham (Jane); and nieces Sarah (Clark) and Helen. Memories of Alan will also be recalled by many extended family and friends.

Alan was predeceased by his infant daughter Emma; son David; parents Ernie and Rita; and mother-in-law Anne.

In loving memory of

Debbie Perkins January 10, 1951 ~ July 1, 2019 Never Say Goodbye There can be no goodbyes for us, it’d be too painful, dear, Our connection still lives on, although you’re far from here.

I miss the times that we once had, but one day, once again, I’ll hold you close and laugh with you, I just wish I knew when.

Each moment till that day arrives, until my time is through, I’ll miss you more than words can say, and always think of you.

I’ll look for you among the stars, and each dawn’s pastel sky, And whisper words of love to you, but never say goodbye.

Forever loved, Forever remembered, Hugh and family

Judith Pauline Brown February 28, 1944 ~ June 14, 2021 Judith “Judy” Pauline Brown of Camrose, formerly of Bawlf, passed away on June 14, 2021, at the age of 77 years.

Judy was born in Bawlf on February 28, 1944, and spent her growing years on the Bergquist family farm. After graduating from Bawlf School, she attended CLBI and CLC. In 1963, she started a job as a telephone operator for AGT, and on September 14 of that same year, Judy married the love of her life, Dennis. A year later, Neil was born, followed

by Shawn three years after. Robin’s birth, six years after Shawn, completed their beautiful family.

Judy was a wonderful, sweet, kind, and gentle soul, who was happiest when she was surrounded by her family on the beautiful acreage that she and Dennis built together. One could always count on a tray of puffed wheat squares to be ready whenever you arrived, and guests were sure to leave with a goodie bag to take home.

Many passions were shared with Dennis and the family over the years, such as camping, snowmobiling, quadding, gardening and, of course, music … so much music! None was a greater passion though, than the love of old cars. For Judy, nothing was better than a cruise on a beautiful evening, taking in all the wonders that nature had to offer, while listening to a favourite song on the radio.

Judy lived her life in service to others. Helping Hands, the business she and Dennis ran for the last 28 years, was not just a job, but a mission. Each day, every connection and interaction was made personal, and everyone who was met became a friend.

Left to cherish her memory are husband Dennis; sons Neil (Charlene) of Camrose, Shawn (Lisa) of Camrose, and Robin (Janis) of Red Deer; grandchildren Cody (Rayna); and greatgranddaughter Murphy of Fort Worth, Texas, Lucas (Ciara) of Edmonton, Dylan (Lauren) of Edmonton, Kristen (Brett) of Camrose, Reese, and Karsyn of Red Deer; siblings Adrian (Joyce) Bergquist of Camrose, Carol (Fitz) Thomas of St. Rémy, Quebec, and Lawrence (Marlene) Bergquist of Bawlf; sisters-in-law Ruth Bergquist of Turtleford, Saskatchewan and Sharon (Denis) Savidan of Surrey, British Columbia; and numerous nieces and nephews.

Judy was predeceased by her parents Percy and Nina Bergquist; father-in-law Thomas Brown; mother-in-law Geraldine Kelly (nee Brown); stepfather-in-law Roy Kelly; and brother Ralph Bergquist.

A private graveside service to honor Judy’s memory was held on Friday, June 25, 2021, at the Bawlf Lutheran Cemetery on the Bergquist home quarter.

Memorial donations may be made in Judy’s memory to the Heart and Stoke Foundation or to a charity of one’s own choosing.

Mary “Molly” Theresa Schneider September 17, 1937 ~ June 18, 2021 It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Mary (Molly) Theresa Schneider, loving mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and sister, who passed away peacefully on the family farm on June 18, 2021, at the age of 83.

Mary was born to Irish immigrant parents Thomas and Margret (Huges) Conlon. She was raised on the homestead in the Clandonald area. Mary lost her parents at young age, and lived in the convent until the age of 18. She left Clandonald and went to Calgary and obtained her nursing certificate. She started her career being a nurse and cherished her many years working at the Daysland Hospital.

Mary married Donald Schneider on August 15, 1959. They raised their four children, Cathy, George, Bruno and Brent, in the Spring Lake area. They lived there until her and Donnie moved to Providence Place in 2012.

Her memory will be cherished by all who knew her.

Mary leaves behind her children Catherine (Willy) Lorentz of Airdrie, George Schneider of Daysland, and Brent (Mary Ann) Schneider of Daysland; her five grandchildren Dawn, Hayden, Breann, Matthew and J’lyn; and five great-grandchildren Cole, Cory, Catherine, Michelle and Caleb. She is also survived by her sister Ann (Lawrence) Bonneville of Edmonton; numerous nieces and nephews; Schneider in-laws Geraldine, Genevieve, Mel (RoseMarie), Jean (Art), and Irvin (Catherine); and numerous other friends and family. She was predeceased by her parents Thomas and Margret; husband Donald; son Bruno; brothers Thomas and Patrick; and sisters Josie, Lilly and Isabel.

A private family service was held.

If family and friends so desire, memorial contributions in Molly’s memory may be made to the Spring Lake Cemetery (c/o Box 172, Daysland, AB T0B 1A0), Clandonald Cemetery, or to Providence Place (6120-51 Avenue, Daysland, AB T0B 1A0).

The CAMROSE BOOSTER, June 29, 2021 – Page 26

It was a busy spring session

By Jackie Lovely MLA Camrose Constituency

The countdown is on!

I am so excited by the recent announcement by Premier Jason Kenney and health minister Tyler Shandro. In case you didn’t hear the news, we will move into stage three of our reopening plan on Canada Day. That means virtually all public health restrictions will be lifted. We can gather with our friends, eat at our favourite restaurants, and live our lives as we choose. I want to thank you all in the Camrose Constituency for doing your part to bring us to this exciting point.

I wanted to share some questions my office has received regarding interprovincial travel, as well as those seeking proof of vaccination. In terms of Saskatchewan, that province will drop most restrictions on July 11.

For British Columbia, at the time of writing this article, our neighbours to the west are in Stage 2 of their reopening plan. I checked their government’s website, and it indicates that BC will be open to out-of-province visitors in stage three of its plan. If you are thinking of heading out of Alberta, be sure to check the rules in whatever province you are visiting. I was also asked about proof of vaccination, because some constituents are hoping to travel out of country. The health ministry indicated to me this is a federal issue and the federal government is working on it.

One of the major highlights from this past session was the passing of Bill 66, the Public Health Amendment Act. This legislation strikes the right balance between protecting the health and safety of Albertans during public health emergencies and maintaining the rights of individuals.

To summarize: • These amendments modernize and strengthen the Act and allow for greater public transparency during public health emergencies.

• The government repealed the Public Health Emergency Powers Amendment Act, sections of the Public Health Act, and updated existing provisions.

• Removed the power of ministers to modify legislation by order; • Enhanced the rights of individuals and added checks and balances on authorities; and, • Modernized the act to reflect current and emerging public health challenges, such as chronic illness.

• It also eliminated mandatory vaccinations. While our government encourages vaccines, we also believe that this should be the choice of Albertans.

Additionally, I had the pleasure of speaking to and supporting Bill 72, the Preserving Canada’s Economic Prosperity Act. This bill empowers our government to restrict the flow of oil and gas into neighbouring jurisdictions in response to attempts at blocking international exports. We do not want to use this legislation; however, Alberta will not be bullied, and I think if our country is going to benefit from our oil and gas industry through equalization payments, they should be supporting the industry, not trying to block or undermine it!

Some have asked what my plans are for the summer, and that is a question I am thrilled to answer.

As we reopen, I will continue to travel through our beautiful Camrose Constituency, highlighting all the great stories, businesses and community organizations that make our area one of the best places in which to work and play in all of Alberta. Please keep an eye on my Facebook page for pictures and recordings that I’m always happy to share, along with job opportunities I come across for those who are looking. I look forward to connecting with as many of you as possible.

If you have any questions or concerns, contact my office. We are always here for you!

You can contact Jackie Lovely, Camrose MLA, at Constituency Office, 104, 4870-51 Street, Camrose, AB T4V 1S1. Tel: 780-672-0000, camrose@assembly. ab.ca or at Legislature Office, 6th Floor, 9820-107 Street, Edmonton, AB T5K 1E7.

CHAINSAW ART

Murray Green, Camrose Booster Tom Hryniuk carves an owl into an old tree in the backyard of Nancy and Larry Meyer’s place on 48B Avenue. The chainsaw art has drawn plenty of views while he worked on the project on June 17. The Swedish aspen, more than 70 feet tall, was felled due to the danger the tree might cause if it came down in a windstorm. Tom, a cousin of Nancy, also added a nest with owlets and a bear.

BIG CHEQUE

Murray Green, Camrose Booster The Rotary Club of Camrose has supported the 644 Camrose Cougars Rotary Royal Canadian Air Cadet Squadron for 64 years, since it was established in 1957. The Cadets still found ways to train and strengthen their leadership skills even when they were unable to meet in person for most of the year. The Rotary Club sponsors the Rotary Cares raffle annually, with the proceeds targeted to youth leadership programs, including the Air Cadets. They invest in the future by supporting programs that instill values needed by leaders of tomorrow. They presented a cheque for $10,000 to parent committee chair Micheal Omoth, to help with operating expenses of the Cadet program. Incoming president Dan Cole and current president Jenn Stone made the presentation.

TOURIST TOWN

Submitted City of Camrose Mayor Norm Mayer signs a proclamation for Be a Tourist in Your Own Town Week, July 12 to 16. Camrose Chamber of Commerce staff members Shaelyn Boyes, left, and Peyton Metzker were on hand for the signing. Be a Tourist in Your Own Town features events running all week.

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.

The CAMROSE BOOSTER, June 29, 2021 – Page 29

Nester named to hall of fame

By Murray Green

The Alberta Schools’ Athletic Association (ASAA) held a virtual celebration on June 17 for coaches, athletes and administrators across the province with longstanding contributions to high school sport in Alberta.

The Alberta Schools’ Athletic Association (ASAA) held the annual High School Sports Hall of Fame inductions and celebrated the Robert H. Routledge Award of Merit during the ASAA annual general meeting.

The ASAA High School Sports Hall of Fame honours the contributions and accomplishments of those individuals who are worthy of provincial recognition in the following areas: athletic administrator, official, coach, athlete and special achievement.

Hugh Nester of Camrose, who taught many years at New Norway School, was named to the Hall as an administrator.

“Hugh mentored many athletic directors in the central region as he hosted and helped others host many sporting events,” said nominator Brent Anderson of New Norway School, virtually.

“When you are the athletic director in a small school, it means you are responsible for all teams and administration, and I accepted those details. It helped me with the opportunity to help realize their dreams.

Somewhere along the way, someone said to me I’m not just a teacher, I’m the athletic director and that should be on my door. I was lucky to have some very solid mentors who taught me to be an athletic director,” said Hugh.

He started teaching in Rosalind in 1979, before moving to New Norway in 1992, and retired in 2013.

“In my first eight years, I watched a very talented athletic director in Ron Wilson.

I made some mistakes, but I learned and didn’t make them again. I assumed that all athletic directors knew more than I did. I assumed every coach could coach better than I did. But one thing I told myself is that nobody else could outwork me.”

He led the hosting of seven provincial events and 57 zone championships.

“One of the most crucial elements is creating the culture in the school that is safe and to have a school that is willing to try anything new.

It was always interesting in the fall, listening to the students talking amongst themselves saying you have to try this sport or sign up for this,” added Hugh.

“We created an atmosphere where students felt protected, safe, put their best foot forward, and that they were going to be appreciated and not made fun of.

That structure throughout the building is pretty powerful. It is all about the students. Coaches have to leave their ego at the door and ask themselves if they are doing this for the students.”

Hugh is the first one to say he has done everything for the students. “To be judged by your peers and found to be accepted is pretty powerful stuff. I’m humbled because of the names on the Hall of Fame. I was surprised and never expected this. I am very appreciative.

ASAA is an organization with great integrity and one I have always been proud to be a part of. An award like this only happens when you have a place where you have a tremendous amount of support.”

What does the garlic do when it gets too hot?

It takes its cloves off.

It’s so hot that I have taken to leaving the toilet seat up just to get those chilling, icy stares from my wife.

This summer vacation, I’m going someplace really expensive – the gas station.

It was at Whistle Stop Golf Course on a brutally hot day, when I saw a father with three kids. I asked cheerfully, “Who’s winning?” “I am,” said one. “No, I am,” said another. “No,” the father said. “Their mother is!”

It’s so hot out today that I almost called my ex so I could be around something shady.

I see people my age out there on summer vacation climbing mountains, ziplining and water skiing, and here I am feeling good about myself because I got my leg through my underwear without losing my balance.

It’s so hot out that the farmers are feeding their chickens crushed ice to keep them from laying hard boiled eggs.

A big bug just hit my windshield.

He won’t have the guts to do that again.

How do you keep your legs from sticking to a chair on hot days? Non-stick cooking spray!

It’s so hot that I’m sweating like a politician on election day.

Dear Weather, stop showing off. We get it, you’re hot.

Talk about extras, this stunning custombuilt walkout bungalow, located in Valleyview West overlooking the lake, is simply spectacular.

You enter the home into a grand entryway, featuring tile inlay into gorgeous wood floors, and a stunning wide open staircase leading to the lower level. Off the main entry is a sitting area that is highlighted by archways and custom woodwork and accent pieces.

Move on to the fabulous kitchen with custom cabinets in rich woods, granite counter tops, a huge island, walk-in pantry, custom stainless appliances including a side-by-side freezer/ fridge and wine fridge.

Adjacent to the kitchen is a large dining area with

a built-in dining table and a wonderful family room, featuring a stone fireplace.

Walk out your patio door to the maintenancefree covered deck overlooking your manicured backyard, the lake and park. The views go on forever.

At the end of the day, retreat to your large master suite and spa-like en suite with soaker tub, double sink vanity and walkin shower. A huge walkin closet will easily house your wardrobe.

A spacious main floor laundry and two-piece powder room reflect the same fine craftsmanship as the rest of the home.

Make your way downstairs to a wide open family/ games room area complete with a fully equipped wet bar and another stunning gas fireplace. This will be

the gathering place for all your family and friends.

Nine-foot ceilings and good-sized windows bring in lots of natural light, and a door leading out to the patio means easy access to the walking trails around the lake.

Three more goodsized bedrooms, all with walk-in closets, and a four-piece bathroom and utility room complete the lower level.

An attached heated garage with pebble tech flooring and RV parking beside the home mean plenty of room for your vehicles.

This home, located at 5917-28 Avenue, has so many custom finishes it is a must see. Priced at $739,000, with these finishes, it would be impossible to build for even close to that price. For a personal viewing, contact Graham Wideman at:

It’s so hot this week that everybody’s common sense about what to keep covered up has totally evaporated.

I’m glad it’s finally hot enough to complain about how hot it is.

It’s so hot the birds are using oven mitts to pull worms out of the ground.

This heat wave is brutal! Not only is it hot enough to fry an egg on the sidewalk, but you can use your mailbox as a toaster oven.

WHAT KIND OF SUMMER MOM ARE YOU? Chore List Mom: “Here is your alphabetized list of house chores you must complete before you even think about asking me to take you to the pool!”

Camp Queen Mom: “If there’s a kids’ camp going on within an hour’s drive, my kids are THERE!” Fend For Yourself Mom: “I don’t care if you’re bored or hungry, just don’t burn the house down before I get home from work at 5 p.m.”

Creative Mom: “I’ve got crafts, scavenger hunts, cooking classes and games planned for the entire summer!”

Enrichment Mom: “Museum visits, summer workbooks (if they don’t use it, they lose it!) and educational travel plans will keep us busy!”

Screen Mom: “Whatever keeps ’em busy. Who’s got time for limits? I’ve got things I need to do, too!”

Last Minute Mom: “Summer break is here?!!

Shoot, how am I going to keep these kids out of my hair? Time to call Grandma!”
