Camrose Sobeys/Safeway employees are once again taking the initiative to raise awareness and funds as part of the Sobeys coast-to-coast campaign to support Special Olympics athletes across Canada.

From June 2 to 16, Sobey’s banner stores, including Camrose, have been and will continue to encourage customers to donate to Special Olympics in hopes of raising $1 million.

Sobeys has been a partner since 2016, helping local athletes, families and coaches eat better and feel better with nutrition guides, cooking classes and fresh, accessible food.

Delighted to be able to once again attend events in person, Special Olympics Camrose athletes Douglas Bailey (swimmer) and Eleena Lazar (five pin bowler) were hamming it up with Sobeys/Safeway staff on June 3, kicking off the event and educating customers on how every dollar they donate helps to keep Special Olympics athletes in the game, but also on the important role that making healthy choices plays in their lives.

“Special Olympics in Camrose offers year-round sport and nutrition programs to over 130 Camrose and area athletes of any age,” explained Special Olympics Camrose chair Carol Wideman.

After a two-year suspension of programs, Special Olympics athletes are also excited to be back playing the sports they love.

“Camrose will be sending five athletes to the 2023 Special Olympics Provincial Winter Games,” said Wideman. “We will be offering a Healthy Living Program to these and all our athletes in the fall of 2022.

Wideman remarked on how important the Safeway in-store fundraiser and awareness campaign is to Special Olympics athletes in Camrose and across Canada.

“With the assistance of local resources and Safeway, healthy lifestyles are promoted to Special Olympics athletes. Nutrition, activity, hygiene and sleep are key to healthy happy athletes.”

Central Agencies Realty Home of the Week

Country living offers options

By Lori Larsen

Imagine life in the country, lots of space to call your own on 19-plus acres, and a wonderful home in which to retreat after working and playing on the land all day. All this located only 15 minutes from Camrose. The land offers lots of options such as having a few horses or other hobby livestock, while the home offers a wonderful place for the family to grow.

Cherry hardwood flooring in warm reddish brown tones greets you in the spacious entryway and leads throughout the main living area. The huge living room has a pellet heated stove which will make cooler evenings feel so warm and cozy.

The kitchen features warm maple cabinets, sleek black quartz countertops and stainless appliances and plenty of room to move around while preparing meals. Adjacent to the kitchen is the dining area where you can entertain friends or hold family get-togethers.

Garden doors lead off the dining area out to a large covered deck, enabling you to continue the fun with barbecuing or sitting on the deck and taking in the open spaces.

Three bedrooms offer room for the whole family and a four-piece bathroom along with a two-piece bathroom, both with comfy in-floor heating, mean there will be no waiting while someone is getting ready.

Get ready to spend lots of time outside playing with animals or having your own off-road vehicle track on the piece of land which is nicely protected from the highway by trees. Cross fencing offers separate areas to house animals and a partially fenced riding arena is a good place to train horses.

Lots of outbuildings including: a good-sized garage, tarped shelter, shop, open lean-to, large barn and classic red hip-roof barn offer plenty of storage areas for vehicles and spaces to work with animals or start a business.

This country property offers a slew of options and plenty of room to roam. It is located at 44331 Highway 56 and is priced at $569,000. For a private viewing, contact Matt Banack at:

I checked the Blue Book today for my car’s value, and it asked if the tank was full or empty. Are you sweating while putting gas in your car? Feeling sick while paying for it? You’ve got the carownervirus. Someone asked me, “Why do you leave your car unlocked? Aren’t you afraid someone is going to steal it?” Nope, it ain’t got no gas in it! Da y Duck and Elmer Fudd break into a distillery. Da y turns to Elmer and says, “Is this whiskey?” Elmer says, “Yeth, but not as whiskey as wobbing a bank!” If you’re a passenger in my car, don’t ever disrespect me by trying to sing lead. In my car, you are automatically a back-up singer. I dream of the day when paper towel manufacturers just say how many rolls are in the package, and not how many hypothetical rolls would be in the package if they were some other hypothetical size. I tried to play frisbee with my dog. It was a waste of time. I guess I need a atter dog. I’m at the point in my life where running errands counts as going out. Hamburger Helper only works if the hamburger is ready to accept that it needs help. I don’t have a train of thought. I have seven trains on four tracks that narrowly avoid each other when the paths cross and all the conductors are screaming. I may not have lost all my marbles just yet. But there is de nitely a small hole in the bag somewhere. I want to be a real life Mr. Potato Head. When a body part stops working right, I could pull it o and just stick on a brand new one. Did you hear Julie Andrews will no longer endorse cheap lipstick? It crumbles easily and makes her breath smell. She explained, “The super colour fragile lipstick gives me halitosis.” The earth is the largest rock that any of us will ever stand on. Therefore, I’ve never understood rock climbers. By standing on Earth, you have stood on the biggest rock. You are done. You have peaked. You don’t have to keep climbing rocks! “Just cleared out some space in the freezer” sounds so much more productive than “I just polished o another pint of ice cream.” Young people think they know it all, and old people think they know it all, but there’s a sweet spot right in the middle where we know that nobody really knows anything. No one makes more observations than a child sharing a stall with his mother inside a public restroom. Fifty percent of parenting is just trying to decide if that strange noise is worth walking up all of those stairs. Dear friends older than 37: You don’t have to put two spaces after a period anymore. That was for the typewriter era. You’re free! Give a man a sh, he eats for a day. Teach a woman to garden, and the whole neighbourhood gets zucchini.

When our lawnmower broke and wouldn’t run, my wife kept hinting to me that I should get it xed. But somehow, I always had something else to take care of rst – the shed, the boat , the barbecue, always something more impor tant to me. Finally, she thought of a clever way to make her point . When I arrived home one day, I found her seated in the tall grass, busily snipping away with a tiny pair of sewing scissors. I watched silently for a shor t time and then went into the house. When I came out again, I handed her a toothbrush. I said, “When you nish cutting the grass, you might as well sweep the driveway.” The doctors say I will walk again, but I will always have a limp.
