CLBI celebrates 90 years By Murray Green
CLBI (Canadian Lutheran Bible Institute) is a small Bible school located in Camrose that was founded in 1932. CLBI is a place that helps young adults encounter God in new and deeper ways through a combination of Bible teaching, adventure, mentorship, service and community. “Since 2022 marks the 90th anniversary of the school’s founding, this summer we are hosting a Celebration Weekend (August 5 to 7) event, which will include a fundraising gala and silent auction in support of the school,” said board member Katrina Neiman, one of the organizers of the event. The gala will be held at the Bailey Theatre on August 6 at 5 p.m. “We are looking forward to welcoming more than 200 people to the school during the weekend and to the gala itself,” shared Katrina. After a meeting at Camrose Lutheran College (now Augustana) and a prayer meeting in Bawlf, CLBI decided to proceed with the idea of a Bible college for Lutherans. On September 19, 1932, Pastor Nels Carlson of Camrose chaired a meeting with church representatives. The CLBI Association was organized and a motion passed to open a Bible school in the fall of 1932. The town offered the
Cottage School rent free. CLBI officially opened on November 14, 1932 with Pastor Paul Nyholm as the dean. Discarded desks from Thordenskjold School were repaired and used. Houses were rented and used as dormitories for students. Some rooms were rented for $4.50 a month. Meals were provided by Moland Lutheran Church (later Messiah Lutheran) with cooks receiving $1 a day. Students washed dishes and peeled vegetables. Twice a week the cook prepared bread dough and the boys carried the dough to Connors Bakery where it was baked. In the first school year there were 66 students enrolled for the first semester and 83 for the spring session. Soon the need for more permanent facilities was realized and in 1934 town council generously donated half a block of land at the site where the present school is located. Sod-breaking for the new building took place on July 4, 1939 and the cornerstone laid on August 27. Due to delays and setbacks, the building was first dedicated on October 26, 1941. Over CLBI’s 90 years, the campus has welcomed more than 3,000 students. The funds raised at the gala and auction will go towards renovating student dorms. The CLBI campus has had many renovations
over the years to make it a functional and welcoming space for students and the next major project is the bathroom on the top floor of the Vinge Centre (the men’s dorm, built in 1939). “This renovation is sorely needed, as the men’s dorm is the oldest building on our campus and this area in particular has not been renovated in 30 years. Our goal is to raise $75,000 for this project. Once funds are raised, we look forward to beginning construction in May 2023,” explained Katrina. “If you would like to donate call or email us and we’ll handle everything. As our way of saying thank you, all supporting businesses will be featured in the weekend’s program booklet that each attendee receives.” On Friday August 5, a supper and campfire will be held. On Saturday, after breakfast a morning walk around the lake will take place. In the afternoon, tours, disc golf, board games and canoeing will be held. The gala event will feature the band Crossection. Then on Sunday a service will be held at Messiah Lutheran Church. If you would like more information about the school or this summer’s celebration, you can reach them at info@clbi.edu. Tickets for the gala are available at www.clbi.edu.

News we didn’t want to know Three stories have dominated recent news. 1. The pope of the Roman Catholic Church visited Alberta, Quebec and Nunavut, calling it a “pilgrimage of penance.” The stated intent was to advance reconciliation and healing between the Roman Catholic Church and Indigenous residential school survivors in Canada. 2. Sport Canada (a federal government body) and Hockey Canada (the national governing body of ice hockey) were called before a parliamentary hearing. Abuse of players by coaches, and players allegedly being involved in sexual assault have been reported. Hockey Canada has reportedly paid $8.9 million to buy off people who reported sexual abuse by hockey players. 3. Gymnastics Canada may face a class action lawsuit claiming physical, sexual and psychological abuse of gymnasts. What do the Roman Catholic Church and sports have in common? Reported incidents of abuse within organizations whose missions look good on paper. As I’ve read and watched and listened to news about these events, I’ve felt rising outrage, and sadness. What I have not felt is surprise. Outrage. It’s partly on behalf of those who have been abused. It’s also personal. I doubt there are many women in my well-over-70 age group who have not faced unwanted sexual attention at some point. In those olden days, we didn’t call it abuse. We called it “the way things are.” We coped in whatever way we could and kept our mouths shut. Oddly, we often felt ashamed. I doubt that the perpetrators felt shame. As near as I could tell, they felt entitled. Sadness. Such things are still going on? Not surprise. For 20-plus years of my career, I worked on projects to reduce or prevent various forms of physical, emotional and sexual abuse. It could be abuse between and among individuals, families or cultural groups. The projects all did some good. There were heartening stories of changed or even saved lives. But, as evident in current news, we certainly did not eliminate abuse. Here is what I’ve learned. Several conditions make abuse more likely. Imbalance of power We can never eliminate some people being more powerful than others. After all, we are born helpless and need more powerful others to care for us. Power imbalance can come in many forms. Power imbalance is not a problem when more powerful people feel responsible for the wellbeing of those less powerful. Opportunity for secrecy Much abuse happens behind closed doors or in environments where nobody is around to see or hear. As well, abusive people–being more powerful–can threaten harm if the abused person tells anyone. (“I’ll kill your dog if you tell.”) Secrecy is not a problem when more powerful people are ethical in all circumstances. The biggest risk factor: a belief that some people are less worthy than other people. In that environment, secrecy may not be necessary because abuse of those perceived as “less than” may become acceptable. Slavery in the U.S. would be one example. Residential schools were founded on a belief that Indigenous culture and traditions were less valuable than those of white colonists. In that environment, Indigenous people were perceived as “less than.” Priests, nuns and teachers could abuse Indigenous children with impunity, and if the children died, could bury them in unmarked graves. Of factors that increase the risk of abuse, there’s one we can most easily do something about. We can act as though each person with whom we have contact is of equal importance as ourselves. We don’t even have to like or care about them. Just respect the life. Tall order. But until we can do that, abuse will be alive and well and all of us are at risk. ***

Fake politicians While we watch another fake conservative in Pierre Poilievre, trying to promote his Donald Trump American-style Republican Party brand of stupidity on Canadians, he makes a fool of himself by praising his pal Jason Kenney for the horrific way he handled the COVID crisis, praises the truckers for the mess they created in Ottawa and Coutts, and bashes Trudeau for doing the right thing in banning assault rifles and handguns. So while Trudeau shows that he does care about the well-being of Canadians, Poilievre shows no concern for what it has cost taxpayers, the lives that have been lost due to COVID, or shootings in the U.S. In other words, he is not the type of Conservative we want. You wouldn’t have seen Peter Lougheed being this stupid. While Kenney wants to kick out the RCMP for daring to investigate his party, Poilievre promises to destroy the CBC along with around 7,500 jobs for daring to criticize his brand of stupidity. Where is the intelligence in that? Alan K. Spiller, formerly of Camrose Changing times We’re seeing the first 40C temperature ever recorded in the UK. In news,
five cities in California have banned the construction of new gas stations (Los Angeles is now considering the same) while Europe is refusing to sign the long-term natural gas contracts that Canada’s oil and gas lobby is pushing for; they see new gas supplies as a shortterm solution to get off of Russian gas for the next year or two, but for the longer term they are investing heavily in energy independence through renewables and energy efficiency. The world is changing fast and Alberta must not get left behind. For that reason, a non-partisan and growing chorus of companies, non-profit groups and church congregations is calling for the provincial government to develop a robust and credible climate plan. The website also intends the eventual inclusion of First Nations and municipalities. This message is intended for the Alberta Government, regardless of which leader or party is in power. The website can be found at www.climateplanalberta.ca. Roger Gagne, Calgary Leadership race I am normally a supporter of Brian Jean. I did vote for him in the last leader vote when Jason Kenney and Brian Jean ran against
LEMONADE DAY
each other. I did vote for Brian Jean which, of course, we did lose that vote. Now, times have changed and the climate has changed. We have gone through COVID-19 which has changed the landscape politically once again. I heard about the visit that Danielle Smith made to Camrose a few weeks ago. She was at the Norsemen Inn. I was not able to be there, however, a friend of mine was. He told me how professional this lady was. He could not remember what she said, however, he told me that she made a lot of sense. So, I decided to do something different by joining Mrs. Smith’s campaign by a small donation and to sign up to help her get her message out. I am working on those details with her Camrose area people. We do need to do something different. We do need a better leader than what Jason Kenney was. There has to be a better way to connect to the average Albertan. If we as Conservatives do not change and to get with reality, the NDP will just win the next election. If that happens, our province will be totally doomed with heavy debt and high taxes. That is how that party does operate. Time will tell the story. Lorne Vanderwoude, Camrose

Thoughts on the leadership race By Damien C. Kurek, MP, Battle River-Crowfoot
The ongoing Conservative Party of Canada (CPC) leadership race has gained high national interest due to a whole host of reasons. From the challenges we face as a nation, including our struggling economy, to an erosion of trust in our democratic institutions and a weariness of the division brought about during the COVID pandemic, polling suggests that a large majority of Canadians are upset with the Justin Trudeau Liberal status quo. Many of you have inquired about who will be my choice to lead the CPC into the future, both in Parliament right away and the party into the next election. First, let me share a couple of thoughts that provide important context for this leadership race. It is CPC members that choose who leads the party, not insiders, elites, nor MPs. I, like every other member of the party (of which there is a record-breaking 675,000 members), cast only one ballot. In casting our ballots, it is key that Conservatives stay united and put egos and petty personal ambition aside as we seek to move forward both as a party, and as a nation. We have seen the consequences of division on the right in Canada and Alberta, and we simply cannot afford it. Out of a strong slate of candidates, the person who gets my number one vote is Pierre Pollievre. In making my choice, I spoke with many of the candidates and evaluated each of them carefully. This process includes listening to the people of Battle River—Crowfoot, examining the candidates records with their ability to define and stick to a narrative, reviewing how they address big issues, and whether or not they can be trusted. Further, good governance and the future of rural Canada are my top priority in making this decision. Pierre checked the boxes and has shown that he can win. I’ve been able to work with Pierre over the last three years since getting elected and I really respect that his message doesn’t change. He speaks on issues that matter to Canadians, from economic and fiscal priorities to addressing personal liberty and autonomy, while also championing good government. He is pragmatic and realistic and communicates in a way that resonates with everyday folks. And while he is an incredibly effective prosecutor in the House of Commons, not resting until he gets an answer, he is also thoughtful in the way he addresses the issues we face as a nation. Canadians are desperate for hope. Unfortunately, that hope can get lost in the midst of the humdrum of politics, media talking points and how divisive every issue has become. I have watched how Pierre has been able to connect with folks in a way that reminds us that a better future is possible and that Canada is worth fighting for. Like all political races, the CPC leadership race has had some tense moments, but in the midst there is a clear desire for change in Canada. For those who are members of the CPC, you should soon be receiving your ballots in the mail, if you have not already. This September 10th the new leader of the Conservative Party of Canada will be chosen. It is an honour to be your voice in Ottawa. Know that I, along with all of Canada’s Conservatives, will keep fighting for the hopeful future our country can have.

• Garneau Inc. announced plans to build a pipe coating plant on a 135acre parcel adjacent to Camrose Pipe Company. The plans will employ up to 100 people and is expected to cost approximately $12 million. City of Camrose Economic Coordinator, Dennis Twomey, who has been working with Garneau for the past five years, said that the new plant will be receiving orders from IPSCO in Edmonton and Regina, as well as other pipe companies in Red Deer and Calgary, in addition to those from Camrose Pipe Company. • Shauna Niehaus, daughter of Gilbert and Pat Niehaus, received her degree in Pharmacy, with distinction, from the University of Alberta. Shauna was employed by Canada Safeway in Edmonton at the time and is presently with the same employer in Camrose. • Camrose and area athletes captured three gold, three silver and twenty bronze medals in the 1997 Alberta Summer Games in Lloydminster. Graham Ryan of Ohaton won gold in the 14 and under pentathlon. Andrew Moulder of Killam won gold in the 13- and 14-year-old 200 metre free swimming relay. Garth Stotts of Camrose won gold in the 15 to 17 year old 100 metre butterfly. A total of 2400 athletes, coaches and chaperones were part of the Alberta Summer Games.
• Several farms were seriously damaged by a tornado that touched down in an area east of Ohaton and northwest of Bawlf. Worst hit was the home of the Donald Sheets family, which was completely destroyed. Mrs. Sheets and two children were at home when the storm struck, but were deposited in a ditch east of where the home stood. They were found by Allan Youngberg of Bawlf who, assisted by Bob White, cared for the injured and immediately transported them to St. Mary’s Hospital. Other farms in the area which sustained major damage where those of Joe Wnuk, Ron Clennin and Allen Gordeyko. • The Camrose Chamber of Commerce will host a public meeting to discuss the possibility of forming a local development company in Camrose. The concept was introduced by Alwar Lyseng, the Chamber’s representative on the City of Camrose Business and Industrial Development Board. He explained that such a body could be effective in attracting new enterprises to an area by making land and buildings affordable. Max McLean was asked to head a study committee and bring a recommendation, which he did, the result of which is the public meeting which the Chamber will host on August 15th.

Art plays an integral role in shaping our cultures and building a holistic understanding of our world, without which it would lack luster and beauty. Art creates awareness and provides information in ways that allows every sector of society to express and process. In keeping with Camrose’s goal to support and promote the arts the Chuck MacLean Arts Centre will be celebrating Visual Arts Month with art exhibits and educational experiences. From August 4 to August 28 the Alberta Community Art Clubs Association (ACACA) Alberta wide Zone (art) Show will be featured at the Chuck MacLean Arts Centre. The event will kick off with the Opening Night Reception on Friday, August 5 from 6 until 8 p.m. and is curated by City of Camrose Recreation and Culture employee Jayda Calon. Each of the ACACA Alberta wide Zone Shows will be juried by three jurors provided by the ACACA. “The jurors will select artworks for awards and advancement to the Alberta Wide Show which is held in a previously designated location, most often in either Edmonton or Red Deer,” said City of Camrose Recreation and Culture manager Tanya Pattullo. “This is a great opportunity for the City of Camrose and the Chuck MacLean Arts Centre to be selected to host the Alberta Wide Show.” Generally, about one third of the art pieces at Zone Shows are selected for sending to the Alberta Wide show, where further jurying will take place. From that point approximately half of the paintings and sculptures sent to the Alberta Wide show are chosen for displaying in the Alberta Wide Show. Scholarships and awards, many named to honour former ACACA members, are picked by the jurors the day before the opening of the Alberta Wide Show. At the conclusion of the Alberta Wide Show, the Awards are then handed out to the artists winning the awards. The artists’ also have an opportunity to have their work critiqued during the ACACA AGM, which not only provides the artist with encouragement but an opportunity to learn and further develop their craft. Shows such as these are not only vital for artists to gain exposure but to learn and develop friendships with fellow artist/ACACA members.
The Zone Shows offer a wonderful opportunity for people in communities throughout the province, including Camrose, to view a wide variety of art styles, subjects, and mediums on display. From August 2 to 24 the Chuck MacLean Arts Centre will feature the Traveling Exhibition Program Exhibit (TREX), “Now is the winter...” presented by The Alberta Foundation for the Arts. This exhibit will feature art works visualizing Canadian winters as seen through the eyes of artists such as Edmonton artist aAron Munson a Canadian artist, filmmaker and cinematographer. His work has taken him from his personal studio to war zones, high-Arctic weather stations, reindeer nomad camps in Siberia, and the Arabian Desert. aAron’s projects tackle extreme human experiences, both far from and close to home, utilizing film, video and photography to create visual explorations of mental illness, memory, and the nature of consciousness. For more information on ACACA visit the website at https://acaca.ab.ca/. On Saturday, August 13, Calon will be leading a free Talking Arts workshop, from 10 a.m. until 3 p.m. for ages nine to 12 years old. Attendees will be viewing the exhibit pieces then discussing the following: reflection, depiction, composition, expression and appreciation. “My goal is to bring kids closer to these artworks and allow them to have more of a direct connection.,” said Calon of the workshop. “This workshop is special as kids will be able to learn and understand various aspect of art by standing right in front of artists work and having conversations around what they see.” Calon’s aim is to introduce children/youth to a gallery space, guide them through the work, and have discussions about the various art elements that directly relate to the works we create. “Taking what we learn we will make art projects that reflect on these winter works to discover our own feelings about winter and build new artistic skills through mediums like watercolor, acrylic, and plasticine.” Preregistration is required.

Kodiaks make a ‘Heck’ of a catch By Lori Larsen
The Kodiaks have added a new face to the organization this year, with the recent hiring of assistant coach Brandon Heck. Brandon grew up in Forestburg area, and having lived in Camrose for the past 11 years, is no stranger to the Kodiaks and is very excited to be a part of the organization. Brandon has been participating in the game of hockey for as long as he can remember and said because his class in Forestburg consisted of only five boys, he had to travel out to play hockey. “Initially, I went to Stettler and in my last year of midget they started a Midget Triple-A team in Camrose, so I came here to play.” From there he played in Killam Junior B with the Wheat Kings, then Bonnyville Junior A and then he was traded to Winkler, Manitoba for a year and a half. “That was awesome. At first I was a bit devastated then I loved it,” he smiled. “Then in the last half of my 20 year old year I was traded to Drayton Valley. “I was one of the deadline pickups that was hoping to play the Kodiaks in the finals, but we lost to Fort McMurray in game six then Camrose beat Fort McMurray in game seven. I remember because a lot of my friends played on the Kodiaks and that was the year they lost to Weyburn in the final of the Royal Bank Cup (RBC) on a weird goal.” After junior hockey Brandon attended Castleton University in Vermont and played four years in the NCAA Division 3. “That is where I found a passion for coaching,” said Brandon. “The coach I had was really impactful on me. Because of my grades I had trouble getting onto

the team but he vouched for me. I had to go to study hall twice a week, but I ended up graduating on the Dean’s List.” After that experience and with the guidance of this dedicated coach, Brandon said he left there in the best shape of his life. “The coach was able to get me a tryout in the east coast hockey league where I played a few exhibition games then from there came back to the area playing senior hockey in Sedgwick.” During a game in Hardisty, Tim Green (now coach of Augustana Mens Viking Hockey) told Brandon that the Camrose Bantam Triple-A coach (then Craig Perry) was leaving. “So he asked me if I wanted to assist with coaching the Camrose Bantam Triple-
A. I helped Tim as an assistant coach for two years then when he moved on and I coached the team for another four years.” After that Brandon went to Saskatchewan to coach Junior in the Battlefords. He returned to Camrose and has since been doing some coaching for the Camrose Minor Hockey U7. Coaching style
As for his coaching style Brandon said he tries to remain fair and patient. “If you ask a lot of my former players, they would say I am a players’ coach, I’m not a screamer or yeller. I have a few simple rules I expect them to follow and believe that players get what they earn with me. He said that having that year experience in Saskatchewan taught him a lot, specifically that ban-
tam players tend to be a bit more fragile where the junior players may try to take a little more advantage of that niceness. “I learned that if you give an inch with the junior players they will take a mile. So it is important to be consistent. If you threaten something then you follow through with it. Junior will test you and it took me a while to figure out that you can’t make empty promises.” But despite having to keep that in the back of his mind Brandon said he is more excited about being part of the Kodiaks than anywhere else. “Growing up in Forestburg I remember coming in as a teenager and watching friends playing on the team. I have always had a soft spot for the Kodiaks. They have such a good reputation in and outside the arena. It is a classy organization and a good organization to be involved with.” Moving forward with the Kodiaks Brandon is happy to once again be involved in a more competitive league and atmosphere. “One of the things I have missed is competitiveness. Coaching U7 is more about developing the players and having fun,” explained Brandon adding that developing the players is also important in Juniors but this level of hockey is also about being competitive. “I need to learn and experience that more and I am very excited to have Boris (Rybalka, Kodiaks general manager) and Clayton (Jardine, Kodiaks head coach) as a mentors.” Family man
Brandon, along with wife Sarah, is happy to be raising their two children, nine-year-old daughter Palmer and seven-year-old son Pearson, in Camrose. “Sarah, was born and raised in the US, we met in
college,’ said Brandon admitting he may have drawn her away from her roots to move to Canada (Camrose). “But she loves Camrose. She said its a nice, clean city.” Both of their children are active in sports, Palmer in gymnastics and soft ball and Pearson hockey and ball, and the family stays very active in the community. Currently Brandon is employed with the family business, Heck’s Fuel Service, mainly out of Bashaw, and is proud to say that strong work ethics are deeply rooted within him, which no doubt will reflect on his work with the Kodiaks. “We are very excited to have Brandon and his family join the organization,” said Kodiaks general manager Boris Rybalka. “He has the values that we want and look for. He has morals, ethics, honesty and a great work ethic and family oriented. His coaching background is a great fit for us as he has coached AAA hockey and Junior A hockey.” On a final note, Brandon thanked the Kodiaks organization for providing him with this opportunity to be part of an organization that has an elite standard of excellence. “I’m extremely excited to learn and contribute to that standard. Knowing I am part of this organization has given me a good jolt of energy.” The Camrose Kodiaks return to Camrose ice for regular season in midSeptember for another fast-paced, exciting year of Junior A hockey.

Lougheed Centre unveils season By Murray Green
The Jeanne and Peter Lougheed Performing Arts Centre has an exciting year of shows this year. It has the largest number of shows in the nine-year history of the Lougheed Centre. Super$tition by Firefly Circus on September 17 has been cancelled. ABRA Cadabra will be bringing the music of ABBA back to the Lougheed Centre on September 20 at 7:30 p.m. Jill Barber has a new date for the Lougheed Centre–September 23 at 7:30 p.m. “Jill is one of the greatest singers and we are finally having her back,” said general manager Nick Beach. Zaniac Comedy Show by Alex Zerbe on September 24 is a free family show, but you must have a ticket. “This is a completely crazy guy. His energy is 11 out of 10. This will be an outdoor show at the Camrose and District Centennial Museum. We were lucky to receive some special funding to purchase outdoor equipment so we can hold outdoor events. Our goal is to have more outdoor events in the future.” Menopause The Musical arrives on September 27. This show is back by popular
demand and was quickly sold out back in 2017. “When I heard they were going back on tour, I had to jump at the chance to bring them back. It is the longest scripted musical in Las Vegas history,” said general manager Nick Beach. Skerryvore from Scotland will be sharing their latest music on September 29. “They are the hottest band in Scotland right now. If you mix traditional highland sounds of bagpipes with contemporary rock and rocky folk music, you get Skerryvore. It is going to be a party.” Ghosts and Evening Songs led by Augustana’s Roger Admiral on October 2. “Former Augustana staff member Cynthia Marks wanted to give back, so she helped us with this series. Instead of receiving an ad she donated her space to The Open Doors. The first show is with Robert Uchida, Raphael and Roger Admiral. Those two had a great show last year, so they added Camrose’s own Roger Admiral to give it a good classical show to start it off.” A Tribute to Elvis In Concert show with Chris Connor and Pete Paquette will be held on October 3 at 7 p.m.

Acts of Charity show held at Bailey Theatre By Murray Green
Local theatre group Infinite Imagination will be presenting two Acts of Charity shows at the Bailey Theatre to assist two organizations on September 23 and 24. Proceeds from the shows will go toward Covenant Health St. Mary’s Hospital Camrose and Camrose and Area Men’s Shed. “There is so much importance with this event to help people in our community. Mental illness does not discriminate; it can affect any Canadian regardless of their age, geography and background,” said Mike Hicks of Infinite Imagination. The play Red was written by John Logan and will be performed by Logan and Mike Hicks. Another play Every Brilliant Thing was written by Duncan MacMillan and will be performed by Trevor McTavish. The event will also feature a silent auction and charcuterie (delicatessen snacks) on Friday, September 23 and Saturday, September 24 starting at 6:30 p.m. Everyone will experience challenges regarding their mental well-being in their lifetime. In fact, mental health problems are actually quite common. The Unit 3 staff of St. Mary’s Hospital in Camrose are so grateful that the plays highlights the struggles, and survivors, of mental illness. Awareness and understanding will help mitigate against some of the risk factors that we all are facing. They can also help combat the feeling of profound loneliness when you think that you are the only one. Unit 3 is unique; a mental health and addictions unit that has been assisting communities for decades. They have both an inpatient and outpatient department at our rural hospital, a team of dedicated professionals that work towards helping people stabilize and maintain a state of good mental health.

CPS crime prevention and mental health officer By Lori Larsen
Outside of patrol duties, something more visible and perhaps more relatable to most Camrose residents, Camrose Police Service provides a multitude of other specialized services that all contribute to the high standards of excellence CPS sets as a top priority. One of those particular areas of specialized community policing is a dual role encompassing crime prevention and the Police and Crisis Response Team (PACT). “Many of the societal issues that impact our communities fall onto the plate of police service because of lack of resources in other areas,” remarked Camrose Police Service Chief Dean LaGrange. “There is an emerging trend in many communities, including Camrose, to expand upon mental health and addiction support services. “The role of the Camrose Police Service Crime Prevention and PACT officer is a hybrid one that not only creates efficiencies within the service, but provides better service to the citizens.” Camrose Police Service Constable John Tomaszewski has recently moved into this role, bringing to the table over 12 years experience in policing with CPS specifically in patrol (front line) and for the past nine years with the Forensic Identification Unit. As a fourth generation member of the community, Tomaszewski has developed an extensive knowledge and familiarity with Camrose, this along with prior experience serving the community in different ways, particularly the agriculture and construction sectors, serve him well in his policing career. “It has helped me to understand the value of community and the different struggles people have on a community and personal basis. It enables me to understand and empathize with members of the community.” Having only been in the new role for a less than a month, Tomaszewski said he has used some of this time to identify areas he would like to focus on and develop further. He explained that there are two main components to the position, that of crime prevention/ community liaison and the designated member to the PACT/mental health/addiction support. Crime prevention/ liaison
The first component encompasses both crime prevention and that of a liaison between all facets of the community and the police. “We have our standards

Tomaszewski said that with the ever-increasing calls for service regarding mental health, the implementation of the PACT will help relieve the pressure from patrol members to not only have to deal with the situation at hand but also the possibility of someone in mental health crisis, so they can focus on other investigations. “While patrol members are trained and capable of dealing with people in these

Bags of Love assists foster care children Submitted by Vision Credit Union
The day a child goes into foster care may always be remembered as the hardest day of their life. Every case is unique, but in Alberta, Children’s Services places kids into foster care when their current situation is no longer safe. But when a child is told they can’t return home, they tend not to see it that way. They’re often crying, confused and scared. Jewel Lien saw this pain up close as a teacher’s aid and foster parent in Ryley years ago. She saw the hurt on the faces of children as they were going into care, and to make matters worse, they often couldn’t even return home to pack their belongings. In complex situations like these, Jewel felt like there was nothing she could do. But she was determined—and she believed in the power of her small community to make a difference. Jewel learned about Bags of Love in 2010. Originating in the United States, the project involves community groups coordinating with their local Children’s Services offices to provide a bag of items for kids to take to their first foster home. Anyone can start a Bags of Love chapter in their community, so Jewel jumped at the chance. Her friend Nancy and daughter Leslee quickly got on board, and over the course of a decade, the three of them have grown Bags of Love: East Central Alberta (ECA) into the largest chapter in Canada. But it truly does take a village. Jewel estimates that 95 per cent of Bags of Love ECA is supported by the community. “Basically everything that comes through these doors, other than maybe five percent, is all from communities. Whether it’s donating items or volunteering their time.” Jewel, Leslee and Nancy are volunteers themselves, so this humble, small-town operation is entirely community-built and maintained. A bag from any Bags of Love might include necessary items for their first few weeks in the foster home, like a toothbrush and toothpaste. They might
also include a note that reminds the child they’re loved, and that everything in the bag is meant to give them comfort in a troubled time. At Bags of Love ECA, the note also asks that the child one day pay the kindness forward. “We’re very careful about not victimizing the kids,” Jewel said. “We want to empower them to stay strong because they will get through this. And when they do, they can brighten their own lives by being kind to others.” Items in Jewel’s bags are largely dependent on what they receive in donations. But no matter what, there are two items that can be found in every single bag prepared at Bags of Love ECA: a teddy and a handmade quilt. Quilters from all over Alberta create age and gender appropriate blankets for Bags of Love ECA. “The teddy and quilt are most important,” Jewel said. “Often we hear back from social workers that when a child opened the bag, they said, ‘How did they know just what I wanted?’” Bags of Love ECA distributes about 600 bags per year with the support of social workers. And not just in Ryley. While the team started working in surrounding areas like Camrose, Vegreville, Wainwright and Lloydminster so many years ago, they now provide bags to 33 Children’s Services offices in Alberta. But Bags of Love ECA provides bags to more than just children going into care. Jewel and her community respond accordingly wherever children are in need. During the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, more quilts and donations came in than ever before. With supporters quarantining in their small towns at the time, Jewel guesses it was one of the ways people felt they could help during the crisis. At that time, Children’s Services weren’t requesting bags nearly as often. But Jewel knew that children were still going into care, so she and her team worked harder than ever to reconnect with social workers and distribute bags from a safe distance.
This past year, the Bags of Love ECA team has developed partnerships with Children’s Services offices in Siksika and Stoney Nakoda Nations. Jewel has loved working with the social workers there, sharing items and learning the cultures’ Traditional Practices around gift-giving and community care. Most recently, Jewel and her team even sent bags to refugees coming to Alberta from Ukraine. “What we do is what the people come to us with.” Jewel says. The partnership with Siksika grew out of a social worker needing help with a family who had no heat in their house. The children from Ukraine received a bag because the Sherwood Park School were welcoming students whose families were fleeing the war. Whether it’s purchasing and donating teddies, creating beautiful handmade quilts or identifying areas in the province where they could help, the way east central Alberta has rallied behind Bags of Love is inspiring. Because of their hard work and dedication, thousands of kids have received a small token of love in a very difficult moment of their lives. “I’m not a quitter, I’ll tell you that,” Jewel laughs. “It’s a deep, deep passion that I just will not give up on.” But the need is high and they can’t do it alone. Jewel envisions a future where there are Bags of Love chapters serving Children’s Services offices all over Alberta. And you can support this vision. Anyone can start a Bags of Love chapter, but there may already be one in your area. Just like Bags of Love ECA, they’re likely looking for volunteers and donations from generous community members like you. Contact Jewel and her team to find out if there’s a Bags of Love near you. If there isn’t and you’d like to start a chapter, Jewel can also give you firsthand advice on how to make it successful in your community. Visit www.bagsofloveeca.ca for more information.

Huggard restores Krake’s 1965 Impala By Murray Green
Mark Huggard owns a 1965 Chevrolet Impala. “This car was owned by a former National Hockey League player that played for the Edmonton Oilers and the Boston Bruins. His name was Phil “Skip” Krake. Philip Gordon “Skip” Krake is a Canadian former ice hockey centre. He played in the National Hockey League with the Boston Bruins, Los Angeles Kings and Buffalo Sabres between 1964 and 1971. In addition, he played in the World Hockey Association with the Cleveland Crusaders and Edmonton Oilers between 1972 and 1976. He was from (Rabbit Lake) North Battleford, Saskatchewan. In his NHL career, Krake appeared in 249 games, scoring 23 goals and adding 40 assists. He played in 207 WHA games, scoring 52 goals and adding 77 assists. “He also did up another car, a Pontiac 2 plus 2. He traded it (Impala) in and I have been working on this car ever since. The company that took the car in on trade didn’t want to put any more money into it, so I bought it off a restoration business in Kitscoty,” explained Mark. “Skip was the original owner and he bought

FUN FACTS
The Impala was Chevrolet’s popular flagship passenger car and was among the better-selling automobiles. The Chevrolet Caprice was introduced as a top-line Impala Sport Sedan for model year 1965, later becoming a separate series positioned above the Impala in 1966, which, in turn, remained above the Chevrolet Bel Air and the Chevrolet Biscayne Redesigned in 1965, the Impala set an all-time industry annual sales record of more than one million units in the United States. All new full-size Chevrolets eschewed the “X” frame for a full-width perimeter frame, a new body that featured curved, frameless side glass (for pillarless models), sharper angled windshield with newly reshaped vent windows, and redesigned full-coil suspension. In 1965, Chevrolet introduced a new luxury package for the Impala four-door hardtop, called Caprice and coded as RPO Z18. Engine choices included the inline six-cylinder as well as the small-block and big-block V8s. A new three-range Turbo Hydra-Matic automatic transmission was optional for 396 cubic inch V8. The old 409 W engine was discontinued early in the 1965 model year, so early-production 1965s got the 409, as well as the 396 CID big-block. Two-speed Powerglide, as well as three-and four-speed manual transmissions, were available.
restoration. Everything from the transmission, headliner, fuel system, overhaul of the dash and gauges because they were not working, door panels and brakes. The only thing I haven’t done is the body work,” shared Mark. “I haven’t done the rear end yet and a little bit of work on the inside left to do. I had a similar car in high school for a short period of time. I had a 1966, this is a 1965, but I always wanted to get one back. I wanted to get a similar car to work on and then I discovered this car. It was in too good of shape not to start to restore it,” added Mark. “It has a 283 motor, the original motor and transmission. I rebuilt the transmission that featured a two speed power glide. It is a nice car, but a work in progress. I parked it outside and didn’t noticed anything. Then I put it in the garage and then noticed it was leaking. After 60 years, you have to
fix things,” said Mark. “This car is a lot of work but also a lot of fun. You need a place to store it, a place to work on it. For me, I want to keep it as original as I can. I want to fix the rear end and
the under carriage. Other than that, I don’t want to do too much. It is a lot of work, but I still want to enjoy it and continue to drive it,” said Mark.

Decoration Day is a yearly Canadian event that recognizes veterans of Canada’s military. It was actually the first Remembrance Day. In Camrose, graves are marked of those who served in the Armed Forces on Sunday, August 21. “We will be having a short service and wreath laying at the main cenotaph, by the Camrose and District Centennial Museum at 1 p.m. Then we will be going to the cemetery for a couple of short prayers,” said Adrian Zinck, president of the Camrose branch. “This year we are inviting everyone back to the Legion for refreshments. Everyone is welcome to attend both events.” Camrose Valleyview Cemetery, located at 4205-52 Street, is owned and operated by the City of Camrose. The Camrose branch of the Royal Canadian Legion will be marking graves and holding a brief ceremony. Decoration Day is held annually on the third Sunday of August. This is a special day to pay tribute to those in the local cemetery. The community services department staff will be available on this day to answer

We think of you in silence We often speak your name Now all we have are memories And a picture in a frame. Your memory is our keepsake With which we’ll never part God has you in His keeping We have you in our heart. Always loved, never forgotten, forever missed by the Nahajowich Family
…with a memorial gift that will do good in their name forever.

Do I have to start a fund to give to the Battle River Community Foundation?
A.
No! You can donate any amount at any time. Memorial or special event donations honour your loved ones. Your tax advisor can give you information on advantages of donating publicly held stock to the Foundation, and we can help you do it! Another way is by attending Foundation Dinners that honour your Community Builders. All donations are appreciated and eligible for a charitable donation receipt and deductible on your income tax return.

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.

5 KITTENS – 13 weeks old. 2 black, 3 grey. Tame and litter trained. Call 780-608-6189.
PETS
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.

Rare disease found in rural Alberta By Murray Green
A rare pulmonary disease that is linked to bats has made Alberta home, according to new research led by provincial lab scientists. Infectious disease experts at Alberta Precision Laboratories (APL) and the University of Alberta have confirmed that histoplasmosis–a fungal infection transmitted through bat and bird droppings–can now be found in Alberta. Their study extends the known range of the disease much further northwest from its traditional home in the central United States and parts of southern Ontario and Quebec. “We were surprised at how many cases were locally acquired, as histoplasmosis has always been considered a travel-related infection,” said Dr. Tanis Dingle, APL’s lead clinical microbiologist for fungal diseases and an assistant professor in the U of A’s Faculty of Medicine and Dentistry. “We now know that it is definitely living in Alberta, and has the potential to infect people who come in contact with it.” The fungus can be present in contaminated dust particles and, when inhaled, patients experience respiratory infections with flu-like symptoms, including cough, fever, chills and headache. Cases are typically related to individuals who have come in contact with bat or bird
droppings in old homes, churches, construction sites and parks. Among 45 confirmed cases of histoplasmosis in Alberta between 2011 and 2018, the researchers used epidemiologic data and genetic analysis to determine that 15 of the cases were acquired locally. The cases were primarily found in rural areas in central Alberta including Sundre, Stettler and County, Stony Plain and Spruce Grove. Previously, the geographic range of the fungus was not thought to expand further northwest than Minnesota, some 2,000 kilometres away. The results of the study were published this month in the medical journal The Lancet Microbe. In addition, early looks at the study led scientists at the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to include the region in newly drawn maps of areas where the disease is known to occur. The research team hopes to continue their work by further investigating soil samples to determine other areas in Alberta where the disease may be present. Alberta Precision Laboratories is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Alberta Health Services, delivering highquality, responsive diagnostic lab services to Albertans across the provincial healthcare system.

There is nothing like a lazy day on a dock just casting a line and waiting for a nibble. Camrose and District Fish and Game Association Pleasure Island is the perfect place to kick back. Maintained by volunteers, this beautiful little gem of a place offers so much – fishing at a well-stocked pond, walking trails, making use of picnic areas, and enjoying the natural amphitheatre and observations sites, all in a serene natural setting.

Over the past 25 plus years, up to 600 Camrose County children who live in or near Bawlf, Edberg, 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 partnership of Camrose District Support Services, Camrose Family Resource Centre and BGC (Boys and Girls Club) Camrose. Children meet in a park from 9:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. for arts, crafts, games, leadership and activities. “When we surveyed families earlier this year the majority indicated that social connection for their children was their top priority due to the restricted opportunities these last couple years because of COVID-19. This information has helped us develop and implement activities and experiences for the children to connect with one another and their community,” said Jolene Doig, program coordinator at the Camrose Family Resource Centre. 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 operates in Hay Lakes (August 8 to 12) and then New Norway (August 14 to 19). The last session of the summer in New Norway still needs more students. For further information, contact Jolene Doig at 780-672-0141 or by visiting the website www. camrosefcss.ca/funded-programs/ rural- community-programs/summer-in-the-park to register.

Little entrepreneur
I’m looking for friends with benefits, and by that, I mean people who have boats, swimming pools or vacation homes. As a parent, literally anything can be a vacation. Warm coffee? Vacation. Getting dressed by yourself? Vacation. Taking out the trash? Vacation. Solo run to get milk? Epic Vacation. Going to the bathroom alone? OK, that’s just crazy talk. Cucumbers hate becoming pickles. For them, it is a jarring experience. Lord, whatever you’re baking outside … it’s done. I really miss complaining about the cold. Just be thankful that it’s not snowing. Imagine shovelling snow in this heat! Me: “I’m thinking about taking a trip.” Bank Account: “I highly suggest that trip be to work.” My kids said they wanted to try something new this summer, so I showed them how to vacuum and do laundry. I got a text from the school reminding me to enroll my kids for the fall. That was unexpected. I’m honestly surprised the school wants them back. A truck is here to cut a giant tree down in my neighbour’s yard, so now my husband has to cancel all his plans and stand by the window for the next two hours. Lori Larsen, Camrose Booster

When I was out running today, I heard someone clapping and I started feeling so happy and proud until I realized it was just my thighs slapping together. Respect people who wear glasses. They paid good money to see you.
I just sold a lawnmower from The Booster classifieds. That’s the last time my neighbour is gonna wake me up on the weekends. If you have an easy firstborn child, don’t feel too good about yourself. It’s a trick from Mother Nature so you, fueled by false confidence, reproduce again. Your second child will be a no-limit soldier who likes to slap and doesn’t sleep. Not everyone realizes this, but if you clean the pile of receipts out of your purse and stack them together, it makes a teeny tiny book about why you’re broke.
Bovine Buffoonery What do you get from a pampered cow? Spoiled milk. Why did the cow jump over the moon? Because the farmer’s hands were cold. What do you call a cow that can’t produce milk? A milk dud. What do you call cattle that tell jokes? Laughing stock. What did the cow say to it’s therapist? “I feel seen but not herd.” What did the mama cow say to the calf? It’s pasture bedtime. Why did the cow cross the road? To get to the udder side. What do you call a sleeping bull? A bull dozer. Why can’t cows wear shoes? Because they lactose. What do you get from a dwarf cow? Condensed milk. Why do cows wear bells? Because their horns don’t work. Where do cows go out for a date? To the moo-vies.
