DAY

Legion members Rita and Lloyd Dool are awed by the impressive Remembrance Day contest art created by Iretioluwa Leslie.
Challenges for the Royal Canadian Legion include: an aging membership base, difficulty in attracting new members, declining commitment to Canada’s military at the Federal level, reduced awareness via the education system and several decades of relative peace, thus complacency, for Canadians since the World Wars (1914-1918 and 1939-1945). Legion members continue to work tirelessly in an attempt for all citizens of all ages, to
Never Forget the Sacrifice.

One of the techniques in the school system to help perpetuate Remembrance is an annual poster and literary contest. Last year, Iretioluwa Leslie, a Camrose OLMP student, sketched a wonderful tribute of an anonymous Canadian wartime veteran for this contest. Her achievement earned her first-place honours, locally, in the black and white category, junior poster category. The pencil sketch was then forwarded for judging by Camrose Branch #57 Royal Canadian Legion to the highly competitive District level, as well. At this level, with submissions from approximately 30 Alberta Legions, her piece earned second-place honours.

Bethany Group honours lifetime members, celebrate 100 years By Murray Green
A touch of beauty, macro-intents Six friends gathered for dinner and conversation. What a treat, after the past few years. Our hostess had Stargazer lilies–even in this early November winter! Another treat. Lilies–especially Stargazer lilies–are one of my favourite flowers. To see them in this season of shortening snowy days was pure delight. The lilies lit up the room. Their scent permeated. They definitely enhanced the pleasure of our dinner and conversation. As we left, our hostess gave each of us a lily flower that had not yet opened. “Put it in a glass of water beside your bed,” she said. “When you wake up it will be open and you’ll have that wonderful smell.” So I did. *** The first morning the lily opened just slightly, but I could indeed smell that lovely scent. I smiled and carried on with the activities of the day. On the second morning, the lily had opened more and it was glorious. The scent was stronger. I carried it into the kitchen; smiled at it over breakfast; took it with me as I moved to my office. Later that day, I hosted a Zoom webinar. Front and centre in my line of vision, the lily was smiling back at me as I spoke. Inspiring! On the third morning, the lily was in full radiant bloom and the scent was even stronger. I carried the lily from room to room so I could see it as I moved from one activity to another. Every time I flicked my eyes in the direction of the lily, I smiled. The lily lifted my heart and spirit and increased my optimism. Such a gift! *** A few days before the dinner with friends, I’d been reading a book called In Times of Terror, Wage Beauty by Mark Gonzales. I’d been thinking about the turbulent state of the world. I was noticing how our thoughts and emotions are impacted by unsettling and traumatic world events, even when we’re not directly affected by the events. I’d been pondering how to stay sane and healthy even when some things in the world seem insane. Like many other people–maybe you too–sometimes I feel powerless and discouraged by events that seem appalling but over which I have no influence. In his book, Gonzales talks about how we might not feel like we can do much, but we have more power than we know. This quote rearranged my mind and it’s still reverberating: “…even if your contribution to a better world seems like a small step, never doubt the power of a micro-strategy done with macro-intent.” Macro-intent? What a concept! I can do macrointent. All of us can. However tiny our direct impact may seem, each of us is totally capable of having a macro-intent, like “be a positive presence in the world” or “contribute to highest good of all,” even when we don’t know what the highest good is. I also remember the African saying, “If you think you’re too small to make a difference, spend a night with a mosquito.” *** I’m thinking of the lily and all the ways it enhanced my week. Our hostess’s “macro-intent” was to bring some pleasure to her friends. That lily did so much more in just a few days. Theme of the week is worth repeating: Never doubt the power of a micro-strategy done with macro-intent. *** I’d love to hear from you. If you have comments about this column or suggestions for future topics, send an email to Bonnie@BonnieHutchinson.com. I’ll happily reply within one business day.
The Bethany Group celebrated the milestone achievement of 100 years in operation with an awards night, October 22. Ten Honourary Lifetime Members were honoured for the dedication and work in making the Group a success. The Bethany Group CEO Carla Beck was the emcee with David Eriksson, chaplaincy coordinator and Bethany Foundation executive director, assisting in inducting Lifetime Members. “It is really remarkable that a 100 years ago Bethany first opened its doors to help those people in need in the thriving community of Bawlf. We are really fortunate to have had the values and culture as the basis of our roots so we can continue on in this type of fashion,” said Beck. After greetings from dignitaries, acknowledging letters from those who couldn’t attend and a historic video, The Bethany Foundation inducted the first group of Lifetime Members to The Bethany Foundation. Erickson spoke about each inductee. Early Pioneers Helga Jacobs’ first job was a cook at Bethany in Bawlf at the age of 18, in the summer of 1939. She
was a resident from 1989 until her passing in 2015. Helga made a generous contribution to the Bethany Foundation. Clergy Rev. Alan Howes was appointed as the first chaplain coordinator of Pastoral Care for Rosehaven in 1977. He served for 18 years and was an inspiration and joy to work with. Staff Kati Fischer said “There are many memories that I am thankful for, most of all it would be our dear residents that I was able to serve through my working years.” Board members Lil Bohmer served on the Bethany board for a total of 17 years and was the first woman to act as chairperson from 1988-90. Community Arlene and Alver Person shared a true passion for others, their community, and are remembered for their service, love for others and faith in God. Residents After Laverne Hoveland’s retirement, he was a resident of Hillside Village, regularly led devotional services at the Louise Jensen Centre until his voice was no longer strong enough. Volunteers Joanne Olsen said, “It
has been a privilege and honour to have been involved with the many volunteers who have graced the doors of The Bethany Group over my 40 years of service.” Board chairs Dr. Odell Olson said “Having attended Bawlf Lutheran Church, I met many of the people involved in the early Bethany and saw how they put Christian love into action through their whole lives.” CEO/Senior leader Dave Stolee added “My best lasting memories are of getting to know and work with the marvelous staff who were totally committed to caring.” Foundation donors Doris and Walter Ritter, following the death of their daughter Elizabeth, have been active donors with The Bethany Group and Foundation since 1985. “People are the most important for this organization to keep us strong and to continue to allow us to be strong in the future. There are so many people in this room who have been board members, employees or have some kind of connection through family. You are here because you care about the Bethany Group. I wanted to share my appreciation of all of that,” said Beck.

Remembrance service back at CRE By Murray Green
The Camrose branch of the Royal Canadian Legion have moved Remembrance Day Ceremonies back to the Camrose Regional Exhibition on November 11. The Camrose branch of the Royal Canadian Legion
will lead the Remembrance Day ceremony. Members ask that people be seated by 10:45 a.m. so they can be prepared to start on time because of the observing of two minutes of silence at 11 a.m.
Master of Ceremonies will be RCMP member Tyler Hagel, a former Camrose resident. A reading of “In Flanders Fields”, several songs and laying of wreaths will also be part of the regular service.

Daysland to close emergency area for some hours
GET IMMUNIZED
iVY desiGn inc. 403 275 3909 | info@ivydesign.ca
By Murray Green
A shortage of rural doctors is hurting the Daysland area. The Daysland Health Centre Emergency Department (ED) will continue to be without overnight on-site physician coverage Monday to Thursday through November. The ED will be closed from 10 p.m. to 7 a.m., Monday to Thursday, due to a lack of physician coverage. Weekend coverage for the ED is still in place. The ED will continue to be open seven days a week, from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m., Monday through Thursday, and 24 hours a day, Friday through Sunday. Patients presenting to the ED during the hours of closure will be referred to emergency departments in surrounding communities or to the local medical clinic for follow-up with a family physician as appropriate. EMS will divert patients to facilities
in Camrose or Killam for emergency care as needed. Residents are reminded to call Health Link at 811, which is available 24/7, for non-emergency, health-related questions. Patients are asked to call 911 if they have a medical emergency. Alberta Health Services is grateful for the support of surrounding health care centres and medical staff, and would like to thank the community for its patience and understanding during this time. AHS continues to work toward resuming regular operating hours. Alberta Health Services is the provincial health authority responsible for planning and delivering health supports and services for more than four million adults and children living in Alberta. Its mission is to provide a patientfocused, quality health system that is accessible and sustainable for all.

On the front cover of the November 1 Camrose Booster regarding Ryan Campbell and the Operation Christmas Child story, it should read, “Ryan and his two-year-old daughter Zhuri.” Ryan’s wife’s name is Olivia. On the inside story on page 4, it should have read, “He worked on the floor of Rosehaven Care Centre (not St. Mary’s Hospital) for seven years, and now manages Homecare and Supportive Living for The Bethany Group.”

Legion members search for past veterans By Murray Green
A trio of Camrose branch of the Royal Canadian Legion members were tasked with the job of finding graves of veterans so they could be marked for Decoration Day this summer. “I was helping with membership with Marilyn Shipley and Barb Steinman said to me we do the last post information when someone passes away. She suggested I help with the cemetery information and I had no idea what I was getting into,” laughed Ethel Urdal. Three sisters, Glenda Hagel, Pam Cote and Ethel took on the project together. “I took the information that we had previously, some spreadsheets, we had a lot of names and a lot of maps. We had names missing. So we went to the cemetery and walked every bit to see what we can find. Where we had names, but no spots, we would talk to the City. The people at the cemetery were great. We were shown empty spots, unmarked graves,” she continued. “We also worked with people from Lethbridge (Last Post) who provide headstones for unmarked graves of veterans. We have a temporary one out right now and a new one is coming. We were told they have seven or eight for us,” said Ethel. “We had people stopping us and asking us what we were doing. They saw three ladies with clipboards, making notes.

Camrose branch of the Royal Canadian Legion president Adrian Zinck, kneeling, along with Comrades Pete Steinman and Lloyd Dool honour the locations of the unmarked graves.
Someone joked and asked if we were doing a census,” laughed Glenda. “However, it was nice because people would give us information as well.” Red bricks “We also discovered that the red bricks that you see in the ground in between some graves sites are actually grave markers. Some of our veterans just have a red brick,” explained Ethel. “The bricks are sandstone so they tend to de-
teriorate. Glenda tried to get down on her hands and knees to try and do some etching,” said Pam. “This project is near and dear to our hearts as our dad was in the war, two uncles and my husband was in the military. We also found some plaques on parents’ or spouses’ headstones that their loved one is buried in France or somewhere else. So, we gave them a cross too,” shared Ethel. The trio put out about 680 crosses at the cemetery.
“Last year, we were 16 crosses short. We found another dozen since then, so we put out 28 more crosses than the previous year,” said Ethel. “The research is ongoing in finding the match between veterans and unmarked graves. One of them was a neighbour of ours. We moved in and got to know the Dutch couple quite well. They passed away since, but their son still lives in the house. We went over for his birthday
and found out his dad was in the Dutch army when the country was overrun by the Germans. He managed to finagle his way out and joined the underground. He had two medals, one from the Dutch army and one for being a participant in the underground. Nobody knew that before. They were part of the Allies and part of the war, so we added him. If they were Allies and buried here, they get a cross,” said Ethel. “It was very interesting work. We logged a lot of hours and we should have kept track. We still need people to pass on more information to us, so they can be honoured,” said Pam. “We received a call from a lady, after reading about it in The Camrose Booster. We encourage people to call the Legion 780-672-3325 Wednesday to Saturday to give us information,” added Pam. They took the information from the various papers and now have the information on computer. “We added our brother into this to put it into a database alphabetically by name so it can be easily accessed,” said Glenda. “When I’m retired, I want to check smaller cemeteries around here to see if there are more names to add to the list. They all should be recognized,” added Glenda. The crosses are usually displayed for a week. Keith Badry made extra crosses this year and they are stored at the Legion when not in use.
Isberg remembers all those who served in war By Murray Green
Lest we forget! We honour those individuals left behind on Canada’s day of honouring remembrance. If you are looking for a show that tributes to those who made the greatest sacrifice, look no further. Veteran and singer-songwriter, Tim Isberg, will be performing at the Bailey Theatre on November 10 beginning at 7 p.m. He is a prolific writer who mixes his real-life experiences on the battlefront with diverse artistry to create songs that have special messages. “My shows are going to include songs that I can relate to and that I can speak to and be sincere about,” Tim said. “The genre that I have is called Americana. It’s a blend of alternative country and folk and contemporary folk.” He wears many creative hats and it’s his writing experience that helps inform the stories to many of his songs. “I’m also a contributing author to a national best-selling book
called National Heroes. It’s kind of like Chicken Soup for the Soul, but from a veteran’s perspective,” Tim explained. He is from Alberta, and has served all over the world from Rwanda to Afghanistan. His artistry has been widely recognized by the country music industry. In 2016, Isberg was nominated for an ACMA Male Artist of the Year. He was also nominated for the Top 5, Best Album in 2019. Despite his stints all over the world, he said it’s “Good to be playing in Alberta. I’ve been wanting to perform at the Bailey for a long time. The Bailey Theatre ‘ran’ with his idea to create a show that is more focused toward a remembrance theme.” You can expect to get a mix of both remembrance and complete musical diversity. “The first set is going to be solely songs that I can relate to. In some cases, there is a song called ‘Yesterday’ that has been inspired by a Second World War veteran interview. The

second set will be wide open, I’ll call it my normal show, just original songs, some humour, good banter with the band…there will
be some injects of humour,” said Tim. As for the second half of the show, Tim and his band will be involved in enter-
taining audiences with music and storytelling, providing more colour on some of his experiences–both local and abroad. Still, the show is dedicated to remembering what audiences are there for. “The whole show revolves around the fact that I am a veteran serving member,” he said. Isberg is constantly blown away by the feedback he receives from audiences, savouring the connection he builds with people who share their personal experiences with him. “I am very honoured when I have someone come up to me after the show thanking me not for the service, but they say that a song really takes me back to my father, or my grandfather, or to my son who served abroad or who died in Afghanistan. I know I have connected with the audience when I get people to come up and share their experience,” Tim shared.

Classic Country Christmas By Murray Green
The Bailey Theatre has a great line-up of fall and winter shows planned for this season. Here are some of the highlights. A Classic Country Christmas with Lisa Brokop will be held at the Bailey on November 25 at 8 p.m. Imagine breaking up your Midnight Madness shopping with a great Christmas concert. Lisa will share some of her favourite country Christmas songs. She has gathered songs that have meant the most to her over the years. “Oh Holy Night,” “Beautiful Star of Bethlehem,” “Christmas Times A Comin’” and “Shake Me I Rattle”, a Christmas recording of Lisa’s that has been a December radio favourite across Canada. Another Rose City Roots Society show will be Dione Taylor, who is a blues, roots, soul and jazz artist. She appears on November 26 at the Bailey. Taylor was nominated for a Gemini Award for her rendition of Oscar Peterson’s “Hymn to Freedom,” which she performed alongside Oliver Jones at the Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame Gala.

a classic country music extravaganza, which is fun for the whole family. The third of 10 shows is on Sunday, November 27 starting at 2 p.m. The Bold, the Young and the Murdered play presented by The Churchmice Players is a murder mystery comedy. Churchmice has brought together a brilliantly talented cast in this hilarious murder mystery comedy, just in time for your office or family Christmas gathering. “It is a play within a play. It is a long-running
soap opera, The Bold and the Young. The second rate day-time show is in its last days: its hunky hero has selfesteem issues, its villainous old man is more interested in soup, and its heroines are slightly psychopathic. The executive producer gives the squabbling cast an ultimatum: Complete one episode overnight or the show dies,” said Andrew Little, of Churchmice. When the director ends up murdered, and other cast members start dropping like flies, it seems like his threat might actually come true.
Some shows are a dinner theatre: Thursday to Saturday, December 1, 2, 3, 8, 9 and 10 with dinner at
6 p.m. and show following at 7:30 p.m. A Sunday matinee will be held on December 4 at 2 p.m. with no dinner.

Comedy returns to LPAC By Murray Green
Comedian Ron James is coming back to Camrose to provide more laughter this winter. His Back Where I Belong tour includes a stop at the Jeanne and Peter Lougheed Performing Arts Centre on December 7 at 7:30 p.m. He has been selling out theatres for more than 20 years with his marathon, side-splitting performances. Marshalling a comedian’s eye for satire and a writer’s ear for language, Ron takes his audience on a breath-taking, non-stop roller coaster ride, cutting a wide swath through contemporary culture with a razor-sharp wit, uncompromising standard and unique, poetically honed delivery. Along with five seasons starring in his own series, his record breaking nine critically acclaimed onehour comedy specials fast became a New Year’s Eve viewing tradition for millions of Canadians. Not to be sidelined by the pandemic, he capitalized on lockdown after lockdown and wrote his first book, All Over the Map: Rambles and Ruminations from the Canadian Road in September.

The funds were raised from the silent auction during the annual ADOA conference held in Camrose in September. The conference hosted over 160 municipal employees from across the province. The funds will be put into BRCF general community funds.

Supreme Court makes bad decision
Ronelle Kiziak, philanthropist, has the spirit.
By Jackie Lovely, MLA
As an elected official, I am very fortunate to have a platform to discuss my views, as well as the views of my constituents. With that in mind, I am choosing to use my platform to discuss an issue that has me and so many others both sad and angry–that being the Supreme Court’s outrageous decision to strike down a law that requires repeat sex offenders to be automatically added to the national sex offender registry for life. In their ruling, the Supreme Court decided that the mandatory registration of sex offenders with more than one conviction goes too far and will no longer be required. This decision is disheartening, an insult to victims and their families, and an affront to all decentminded Canadians. Let’s be perfectly clear: the Supreme Court’s woke decision will make our country less safe, full stop. It will also adversely affect women, who are overwhelmingly the victims of sex crimes. This issue hits close to home for me personally and for our constituency at large, as many of us are still thinking about the tragic deaths of Mchale Busch and her 16-month-old son, Noah McConnell. As you may know, Mchale was from Camrose and was well known at our skating rink. She and Noah eventually lived together in Bashaw, and in September 2021, McHale, her partner Cody, and Noah moved to Hinton. Later that month, Mchale and Noah were killed in their apartment by a neighbour who we now know was a repeat sex offender. Mchale and Noah’s deaths weren’t only tragic, they were preventable.
She is shown in conversation with Blain Fowler, an Ambassador for the Battle River Community Foundation. She was asked, “Why have you chosen to give back to your community through the Battle River Community Foundation? She replied, “I chose to give back through the Foundation because I know that 10% of my donation will go back into the community that I call ‘home.’” She went on to say, “Programs such as Reading University are

Discovering military family history By Lori Larsen
The Camrose Branch of the Alberta Genealogical Society has introduced a Special Interest Group (SIG) focused on military history. Norm Prestage, one of the founding members of the Camrose Branch of the Alberta Genealogical Society, will be assisting attendees on their quest to research and discover military family history. “Most people in Canada have some relative who was in the military,” said Norm. “Canada has been involved in a lot of wars in our time as a county, that is not to mean we are a war like country, but Canada has had military presence during wars since 1812.” Norm’s goal is to help people find their service records for their relatives which he claims is easy in some cases but in many cases can be challenging. During an introductory presentation to the Camrose Genealogical Society, on October 13, Norm covered the basis of what this Military SIG will entail and provided a brief history of the process and discovery of his own family military background research. Norm comes from a long lineage of military service including; his great grandfather, grandfather, father, godfather and himself. “Many of my family have been in the Canadian military and that is what caused me to start doing research into military background,” explained Norm. “Some of it has been easy but I have run into some roadblocks.” Norm’s grandfather, who passed away when Norm was five, served in the First World War and was given three medals. “I was given one of his medals. I am unsure where the other two are,” said Norm. “Fortunately in the First World War they inscribed the man’s service number and name on the edge so I had an easy time finding his records.”
As Norm will attest, quite often while conducting research on family history, a person will stumble upon something that they may not have even been looking for which has the potential to lead them down other interesting genealogical paths. “I found out, accidentally, that my great uncle’s brother had won the military medal in the First World War and my godfather was in motor torpedo boats in the Second World War.” Unfortunately, however, that posed a bit of challenge
ing facts about the time his godfather spent on torpedo boats including the fact that he was on boats that sunk three times. “He died when I was 15 he was probably about 45. I remember him having nightmares every night and then he died of a heart attack out on the golf course. He had a bad war experience.” Determined to unearth more about his godfather’s military past, Norm searched for an obituary or death certificate. “I do have a photograph of his gravestone. This is still a work in progress.”
“I typed in his name and low and behold he was there. He had joined the same battalion as my other grandfather, afterwards, but he was kicked out after a number of weeks for medical reasons. Then about a year later he applied for a different battalion and he was kicked out again for medical reasons,” said Norm. Norm’s wife Cheryl’s (Torscher) family has also been the topic of military history research for Norm. “Her Uncle Joe Torscher served in the First World War,” said Norm.

in Norm’s quest. “If a person dies in the Second World War, you can get the medals from Library and Archives Canada (w ww.bac-lac. gc.ca) and Ancestry (www. ancestry.ca/)has quite a few too. But if they survived it is almost impossible to get the records. You have to prove that you are next of kin. He is my godfather so that may suffice. And you also have to prove that they are dead.” In his research Norm did uncover some interest-
Norm’s maternal grandfather served in the First World War and was wounded three times. “My paternal grandfather was about the same age and I often wondered why he never went. I had no service number because I hadn’t thought he had gone.” As a result of doing a little poking around on the Archives site one day, Norm soon discovered that in fact his paternal grandfather had served.
While researching Joe’s military history, Norm discovered he had done his basic training for the army in Camrose, then joined the Air Force and did his training in Winnipeg, Saskatchewan and Sidney BC. “Then he went overseas around the middle of 1943 (Second World War) and then died in 1944. He was lost in a crash and his body never found. He wasn’t there very long, which is kind of sad.”
In honour of Joe’s military career, Norm has spent the past five years collecting memorabilia and assembling some into a display shadow box. One precious piece is a copy of Joe’s original diary he kept during the war. “I have a copy of the diary Joe kept during the war, which was totally illegal,” smiled Norm. “It’s not so much about what he was doing with the flying (military wise) but about going to a show or getting drunk. Just everyday life. “On the first page of the diary he wrote that he was leaving his parents at the train station in Medicine Hat and that after they left he shed a tear and wasn’t ashamed of it.” For Norm genealogy is not just about researching names and dates but unveiling stories. Stories of his ancestry and the interesting characters that make it possible. Most people who begin the process of looking into the past of their ancestors would agree, what is turned up not only reveals the stories of the past but can sometimes shape the pages of tomorrow. For anyone interested in researching their family military history, join Norm and others at a Camrose Branch of the Alberta Genealogical Society Military SIG meeting, taking place on the third Tuesday of every month held at the Camrose and District Centennial Museum (4522-53 Street) beginning at 7 p.m. The Camrose Branch of the Alberta Genealogical Society regular meetings are held on the second Thursday of each month at the Camrose Public Library boardroom at 6 p.m. The November 10 meeting will be held at the Camrose Railway Station Museum and Gardens (4407-47 Avenue).
Music Festival returns By Lori Larsen
The Camrose and District Music Festival will be returning on April 3 to 6, 2023, after a hiatus of two years brought on by the pandemic and the efforts to maintain the well being of everyone. “We are back,” said Festival president Charlene Brown. “And with a new motto...Refreshed, Revamped, Share your Music.” In the spring, members of the board for the upcoming festival, including the Jeanne and Peter Loughhed Performing Arts Centre general manager Nick Beach, University of Alberta Augustana Campus director of music John Wiebe and Brown, along with others, gathered to discuss and plan getting the Music Festival going again.
“The group then invited teachers to come out and discuss what they wanted to do differently and what would remain the same,” explained Brown. After deliberating about how the 2023 Music Festival could be delivered differently this time the board decided to go with two streams, a competitive stream, which is the traditional format for the Music Festival, and a new noncompetitive stream. ‘The non-competitive idea stemmed, in part, from discussion with the teachers who indicated that in the past some had refrained from entering students in the festival because they felt that the competition side didn’t necessarily focus on the things they wanted for
their students.” In hearing what the teachers had to say about the importance of the experience over the competition and wanting to broaden the Festival to be more inclusive the board decided on the two streams. “The Festival will still have the traditional structure using the Provincial Music Festival as its basis,” said Brown. “Participants will still enter the same way as always but now it will have a non-competitive side. That way we can provide a different kind of experience and make sure that going to the music festival provides a positive experience.” Brown said that on the competitive side registrants will still enter using the Provincial Music Festival syllabus and be eligible for awards
and recommendation to the Provincial Music Festival. However, on the non-competitive side participants will be encouraged to be more creative and will not be performing for class wins or awards. Non-competitive participants will instead be given more time with appropriate clinicians in order to be given beneficial feedback. “They will still have the opportunity to perform their piece, or whatever they are bringing. That is very important for music educators, that students have goals and performing, is the goal itself. Getting feedback and having the opportunity to work with them a little bit will be the bonus to the non competitive side of the festival.” Continued on page 19

Having taught for 33 years, Brown recognizes that having goals is something for the students to work towards. “It is important for their growth. Not everyone is going to live their life on the stage as an adult, but the things that they learn by standing up and performing are skills that they will carry on into the other parts of their life.” Brown added that having the non-competitive side also provides an opportunity for people to be a little more creative in their performances. Non-competitive participants can enter in all the usual categories including: piano, voice, speech, choral on the non competitive side or they can be completely creative, such as entering what might typically be referred to as a “garage band”. “It is those kinds of bands or ensembles that we are wanting to bring into the festival fold. So we are embracing any kind of music and any kind of ensembles. We have always had fam-
ily and community music as part of the Festival and over the years there has been some unique combinations of things. We want to see more of that,” said Brown. The importance of the Festival itself goes far beyond the excitement and jitters of the week of performing and as Brown explains is really just the showcase of months and months of hard work and dedication by the individuals performers. “It is about their learning all year long. The festival provides them with an opportunity to showcase their work.” Events such as the Music Festival help to keep the arts alive and showcases what is going on, in the arts, within the community. “It fosters arts and encourages growth in the community as a long term goal.” The 2023 Camrose and District Music Festival will take place between two venues: the Lougheed Centre and the Augustana Chapel. “It is nice to have it all in one spot,” smiled Brown. “Volunteers can all be in one

ÉCCHS Wall of Fame By Lori Larsen
École Camrose Composite High School (ÉCCHS formerly Camrose Composite High School CCHS) is happy to once again be celebrating the achievements of four ÉCCHS alumni and inducting them on the Wall of Fame during an in-person ceremony to be held on November 18 at ÉCCHS library. This year’s inductees are Cliff Drever, Dr. Jennifer Watt, Michael Holmes and Tom Spila. Cliff Drever
Cliff graduated from CCHS in 1977 and was one of a few students that actually spent six years at CCHS, but most certainly not for the reason that some may think, Grades 1 to 3 were taught there during the construction of Chester Ronning. In 1978, Cliff moved to the family grain and ranch operation near Hardisty. In 1982, when Cliff’s father Ken, retired from the local Petro Canada distributorship, Cliff along with wife Bev moved their young family back to the Camrose area to take over the business all the while maintaining and growing the farming operation. Over the next few years, the Petro Can operation expanded from three to seven sites and in recognition of the exemplary growth Cliff and Bev were, twice, awarded the President’s Award. In the 2000s, Cliff established the Rancher’s Beef processing facility in Balzac, serving as director for a number of years. He was also the president of Heritage Angus, when he developed an interest in the production of entirely grass-fed beef. Heritage Angus became the largest exporter of beef to Europe. The Drever family farming operations has become a recognized leader in the production of organic grains and cover crops. Some of the other business ventures Cliff and Bev have undertaken include: Battle River Dodge, D&D Vehicle Sales, Fieldstone Developments, Parkland Leasing, and Prairie Water in Camrose; Midwest Propane in Wetaskiwin; Prairie Tire and Prairie Crop in Vegreville and Blue Rock Cattle Company in Hardisty and Saskatchewan. Indicative of an attitude that ‘anything worth having is worth working hard for’, Cliff was one of few people to have bicycled across Canada. He and his brother completed the trip together in increments over the course of several years. Staying true to his interest in supporting environmentally conscience communities, Cliff has been an active member, including director, for Newo Energy.
He also recognizes the importance of giving back to the community that has supported him and his family and has been a member of the Rotary Club of Camrose and the Battle River Community Foundation, and strongly supports Bev’s work in helping establish the local Hospice Society. When they are not involved in business or the community, Cliff and Bev spend as much family time as possible enjoying their four children and seven grandchildren. Dr. Jennifer Watt
Dr. Jennifer Watt (Nielson) graduated from CCHS in 1995 with honours. She went on to earn a Bachelor of Education with distinction from the University of Alberta, and both
English Practitioner Award in Britain and three-time recipient of the University of Manitoba’s Teacher of Excellence Award, nominated by students. Dr. Watt has also been a leader in research and has had a significant number of research findings published in peer-reviewed journals and her books remain popular among fellow practitioners. She also conducts speaking presentations at academic conferences. Recognizing the importance of giving back, Dr. Watt is an active volunteer at the university and in the community with a special interest in inclusive education and working with traditionally disadvantaged groups such as indigenous students and expectant

In earlier years, when his three sons were young, Michael enjoyed coaching them in minor soccer and hockey. To balance
the demands of his career, Michael plays recreational hockey and enjoys skiing, golf and travel. Tom Spila
Tom Spila was a long time familiar face around ÉCCHS (formerly CCHS) having retired from an incredible 44 year teaching career, 39 of which were spent at ÉCCHS (CCHS). He began his career at CCHS teaching in a variety of subject matters but eventually, due to the overwhelming popularity of his music program, it became his main focus. The program included concert and jazz bands, an honour band, mixed chorus, chamber choir, vocal jazz, and both beginner and advanced guitar. As a teacher and mentor to many students, he was known for his quiet, gentle demeanor combined with a strong competitive drive which lead to a plethora of successful zone and provincial championships and achievements by individual students and groups on a local, provincial and national level in a variety of musical disciplines. Tom not only brought out the musical abilities in his students, but was a strong advocate of developing individual character and ensured that students learned that making music is fun. It was no surprise that Tom’s classes were some of the largest in the school, so much so that some needed to be scheduled outside of regular school hours. As well, an effort to support and ensure the music program continued, the Music Parents Association was formed, responsible for fundraising and garnering public support for the program. Tom’s passion for the music program was shared with parents and a number of professional musicians, and music educators. Besides his enormous efforts with the music program at ÉCCHS (formerly CCHS), Tom was a recipient of the Tommy Banks Award from the Alberta Foundation for the Arts, the inaugural Vondis Miller Legacy Award for exemplary music instruction and remains an active member of the International Bandmasters Fraternity. His work has been recognized by the University of Alberta, the Alberta Band Association, the Alberta Choral Federation, the City of Camrose, the Province of Alberta and the Governor General of Canada. Tom and wife Chrystal live in Camrose and remaining true to his love for music, Tom is still heavily involved in the Community Band and is a popular adjudicator at numerous music festivals.

Nelson owns a Studebaker convertible By Murray Green
Lyle Nelson of Bawlf owns a 1988 Studebaker Avanti. “I’ve had this car for about 10 years and I bought it in Florida. I’ve belonged to the Studebaker club for the last 40 years, so when this car came up, I wanted to buy it,” said Lyle. Five brothers: Henry, Clement, John, Peter and Jacob Studebaker started the company. “I owned a GT before. This one is an Avanti convertible, which is very rare. The car has a Chevrolet 305 V8 engine with an automatic overdrive transmission,” shared Lyle. The company was acquired and run from 1987– 91 by John J. Cafaro. “This car was in great shape when I bought it. It had only 23,000 miles on it, in fact it only has 27,000 now. It is still a fairly new car,” said Lyle. Modifications were introduced to the car, which had remained unchanged since the production of the Avanti II model began in the mid-1960s. A new convertible body style along with an all-new and lighter backbone chassis that was designed by Herb Adams, a former Pontiac engineer, using a torque tube with a Chevrolet Corvette aluminum rear end and independent suspension. “I used to go to a lot of

car shows, but I don’t go to a lot any more. I really enjoy the convertible. I have had quite a few convertibles in my time. I think I’ve owned about six or seven. They are good for nothing if the weather isn’t nice,” laughed
FUN FACTS
Studebaker was an American wagon and automobile manufacturer based in South Bend, Indiana, with a building at 1600 Broadway, Times Square, Midtown Manhattan, New York City. Founded in 1852 and incorporated in 1868 as the Studebaker Brothers Manufacturing Company, the firm was originally a coach builder, manufacturing wagons, buggies, carriages and harnesses. Studebaker entered the automotive business in 1902 with electric vehicles and in 1904 with gasoline vehicles, all sold under the name Studebaker Automobile Company. Until 1911, its automotive division operated in partnership with the Garford Company of Elyria, Ohio and after 1909 with the E-M-F Company and with the Flanders Automobile Company. The first gasoline automobiles to be fully manufactured by Studebaker were marketed in August 1912. Over the next 50 years, the company established a reputation for quality, durability and reliability. After an unsuccessful 1954 merger with Packard failed to solve chronic post war cash flow problems, the Studebaker Corporation name was restored in 1962, but the last Studebaker automobile rolled off the Hamilton, Ontario, Canada assembly line on Saint Patrick’s Day, March 17, 1966.
Lyle. In 1988 and 1989 Avanti made two-door coupes and a convertible. The 1988 Avanti were called the Silver Year models, marking 25 years since the Avanti’s introduction. “It’s a United States car. They stopped making Studebaker in 1991. They had one model, but it was basically a Camaro. I have all Studebaker running gear on this car. Studebaker didn’t change a lot from year to year. There are subtle changes, but similar to the original 1962 design. The look of the car hasn’t changed a lot over the years,” said Lyle. In 1989, Cafaro lost faith in the original coupe and introduced a four-door version, of which 90 were built. In four years, only 405 Avantis were made at the Youngstown plant, which closed in 1991. The 305 cubic inch V8 had electronic engine controls, 155 horsepower and GM’s Turbo 350 automatic transmission with lock-up.
Building one of the 1980s Avanti IIs required 10 to 12 weeks, depending on special color or upholstery orders. From 1963 to 1985, Avanti IIs were built on
the Studebaker-designed chassis, then the Chevrolet Monte Carlo chassis was used; Chevy discontinued the Monte Carlo in 1987, and Avanti switched to the Chevrolet Caprice chassis.

Pedestrian safety
By Lori Larsen
Pedestrian safety is not only incumbent upon operators of motor vehicles, but also pedestrians, to take all the necessary precautions to decrease incidents on our roadways. Camrose Police Service traffic division Constable Matt Rolfe reminds motorists and pedestrians of the laws and provides the following information to ensure everyone remains safe. Motorists

Kidney transplant brings hope By Murray Green
Type 2 diabetes
Do you have pre-diabetes or type 2 diabetes? According to the Canadian Chronic Disease Surveillance System, 8.8 per cent of Canadians were living with diabetes as of 2016-17. Approximately 200,000 new cases are diagnosed annually. In Alberta alone, the public health care system spends $494 million yearly on diabetes-related expenses. Patients pay up to $2,400/year out Jane Yardley, of pocket for diabetes-related Kinesiology, medications and supplies. University of Alberta The word diabetes refers to Augustana Campus a spectrum of conditions where the body either does not produce enough insulin (the hormone that helps transport glucose into cells), or cells in the body do not respond as they should to insulin. The common symptom in these conditions (Type 1 diabetes, Type 2 diabetes, pre-diabetes, gestational diabetes), is high blood glucose (sugar) levels. The most common form of diabetes is Type 2 diabetes. The precursor of this chronic disease is pre-diabetes, a condition which is often asymptomatic and diagnosable with a fasting blood sample. A high fasting blood glucose level would be considered “impaired fasting glucose.” In this case a physician may order follow-up testing, including an oral glucose tolerance test. This test involves drinking a sugary solution and having blood samples drawn frequently (every 30 minutes) to see how quickly the body is able to clear the glucose from the blood. Slow clearance is an indication of impaired glucose tolerance. The combination of these tests and a blood component called hemoglobin A1c, allows doctors to determine if someone has prediabetes or Type 2 diabetes. A pre-diabetes diagnosis is usually accompanied by advice to improve several health behaviours. A healthy diet and regular physical activity help reduce impaired fasting glucose and impaired glucose tolerance. Recommendations involve avoiding or at least reducing, high-fat, high-sugar, processed foods, eating more vegetables and foods high in fibre along with lean protein sources. For many people with pre-diabetes, meeting the physical activity guidelines (sitting less, light movement throughout the day, 150 minutes/ week of moderate to vigorous activity) and improving diet quality normalizes blood glucose levels and prevents the progression to Type 2 diabetes. These lifestyle changes may also bring with them the added benefits of weight loss, improved heart health, better sleep and a stronger immune system. In the absence of lifestyle changes, and sometimes in spite of a person’s best efforts, pre-diabetes may progress into Type 2 diabetes. At this stage, in addition to encouraging improvements in diet and physical activity, medications can be added as a treatment option. These medications include drugs that either make the body’s cells more sensitive to insulin or stimulate the pancreas to release more insulin. Again, the goal is to ensure that blood glucose levels remain in a lower, healthier range than would be possible without intervention. Should the condition progress further, injections of synthetic insulin may be necessary to balance blood glucose levels. Avoiding high blood glucose levels is essential for preventing the long-term complications of diabetes, which can include heart disease, blindness, kidney failure and nerve damage. High blood glucose levels may also contribute to a faster loss of muscle strength and bone density with aging, explaining why older adults with diabetes are more likely to be frail than those without diabetes. Early diagnosis and immediate improvements in diet and exercise are often sufficient to slow the progression of Type 2 diabetes and prevent its long-term complications. Unfortunately, many people with prediabetes and Type 2 diabetes are completely unaware that they have them. November is Diabetes Awareness month and November 14 is World Diabetes Day. There will be many events coordinated by organizations like the Alberta Diabetes Foundation, the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, and Diabetes Canada. None of the advances in the treatment of this condition would be possible without the research funded by associations like these. To help the people that you know who have diabetes, consider supporting these events and these organizations this month and beyond. It is also a good time to get yourself checked.
In today’s overly saturated job market, you take what you can get. Allan Bernesky-Lyster was busy working a stable nine-tofive job–one that he was particularly grateful for– when he was forced to take on another position. And it wasn’t an upgrade. Bernesky-Lyster was swapping his job for a seat on his couch, hooked up to a dialysis machine for up to five hours a day. His kidney was failing. Six years ago, during a routine blood work check, his doctors started to notice an alarming pattern. “I was getting blood tests every three months for my Type 2 diabetes and my blood tests stared showing my kidney function dropping. We didn’t know why. All of a sudden it just dropped,” he explained. Diabetes impacts your kidney function. Each kidney is made up of small filters called nephrons, which are prone to damage when you have diabetes since high blood sugar levels are not good for them, as well as for blood cells. Typically, kidney damage begins within 10 to 15 years after diabetes starts, and once the damage is done, it’s irreversible. For Bernesky-Lyster, his prognosis was indicative of his eventual need for transplant. “For about a year I was seeing a nephrologist in Edmonton and he told me that I am eventually going to need to go on dialysis,” said Bernesky-Lyster. “They did a biopsy and they think that due to the Type 2 diabetes and just bad genes, I’m going to need a new kidney. So, it wasn’t a matter of if, it was a matter of when,” he added. Still, the decision wasn’t easy. In fact, Bernesky-Lyster tried to return back to work a little over two years
ago, but his health was on rapid decline. “Between dialysis and work, I wasn’t allowing enough time for my kidney to recuperate,” he said. Bernesky-Lyster wasn’t getting the rest he needed to let his body regenerate, which is crucial for optimal organ function. The only silver lining was the ability to have dialysis from the comfort of his own home. Lyster asked his health care to put him on home care dialysis, so they installed a dialysis machine in his house. While this is convenient, it also meant isolated times in the home, hooked up to a machine with little to no physical leeway. “Doing dialysis is like a part time job because I have to schedule my life around that machine,” he said. If he isn’t diligent in maintaining his schedule, he pays for it. “I’ve lived my life now around this machine for five years. I want to get back to my regular life…If I don’t do dialysis for more than a day, I am sick. All the junk accumulates and then I have to go on dialysis for even longer,” said Bernesky-Lyster. “If I do a fivehour dialysis today, I take tomorrow off, I have to do a six-and-a-half-hour session the day after, so that I feel better,” he shared. Typical day Bernesky-Lyster is the father of five children, including an oldest son who has Type 1 diabetes, among other conditions. “He’s been diagnosed with severe autism. He can’t talk, he can’t communicate–he’s also epileptic. Taking care of him is a full-time job so my wife can’t work either,” he continued. To sustain themselves, Bernesky-Lyster and his wife Elisha have a booth at the farmers market where they sell her baked goods.
But once he is done here, it’s a double shift at home. “On a day like today, when I get home at 4:30 p.m., I would get on dialysis till 9 p.m. If I go on later, I’m usually on, eight till midnight,” Lyster said. It’s also important to ensure he’s keeping himself free from airborne illnesses. “I’ll go home, and shower, clothes go into the wash. Since I’m on the transplant list, I am extremely careful.” Dialysis isn’t exactly a long-term solution and it comes with its fair share of health intrusions. “I have to insert needles into my arm every time I do dialysis. I didn’t want to get a chest access because it’s a foreign body, so close to your heart. My doctor built a fistula, so he connected a vein to an artery, so it’s arterial blood,” he said. Life on the transplant list is not only physically taxing, but also financially draining. “It’s hard to support a family when I’m not working. I’ve been on CPP and disability…but it’s not enough to help save up when the transplant comes,” he said. “When the transplant comes, I have to live in Edmonton. I can’t be more than half an hour away from the hospital.” The Round Hill community stepped up to hold a fundraiser to assist him with expenses. If you want to help the Bernesky-Lyster family, visit https://www. gofundme.com/f/q92vfdesperately-needing-help. However, he wasn’t able to attend. And as luck would have it, the impossible happened–Bernesky-Lyster received the greatest phone call of his life. An organ was available. He went in for surgery on October 29. Three days later he was up and walking (with the aid of a walker).
Murray Green, Camrose Booster Allan Bernesky-Lyster and his daughter Alexis sold pies at the Camrose Farmers’ Market on Thursdays at the Duggan Mall to make extra money for his transplant expenses.

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

Hundreds of families in the past 70 years have become “team carriers” with the objective of saving money for a family vacation, major purchase, college, university or other education.
Carriers are required to deliver The Booster and inserts on Tuesdays. We will deliver these to a drop-off point on your route or you may pick them up at our office. Minimum age is 12 years; approximately half of our routes are delivered by adults.
Reasons to Consider Joining our Team: 1. Spending money
You are paid CASH, immediately following the completion of your route, or whenever convenient for the carrier.
2. Great way to learn responsibility
Parents of carriers from years gone by routinely report lessons learned from having a scheduled carrier route were the basis or foundation for their child’s other successes in life’s path.
3. Get paid while you get exercise and fresh air
This is the reason we are attracting a growing number of adults (many age 50-plus!) to do their own route. Over half our routes are delivered by adult carriers.
4. Convenient hours
After school delivery of The Booster on Tuesday afternoons seems to work for most families. Adult carriers may pick up Boosters at our shop by 1:00 p.m. on Tuesdays. Routes are to be completed by 7:00 p.m.
5. We offer a route that is close to your home
We make it easy for you to access your papers so your route can be quickly completed. Papers may also be picked up at the Booster office if you wish.
6. We do all of the interleaving of flyers for you!
Your job is simply to provide thorough and ultra-reliable delivery. We do the rest!

Police advise on pedestrian safety Continued from page 23
“As important as it is for motorists to drive defensively and follow the laws, it is equally important for pedestrians to abide by the rules of the road, but also follow a few tips to further prevent any incidents with motor vehicles,” said Rolfe offering the following suggestions. Where possible always use crosswalks and pedestrian-activated signals. “It is much safer to cross at marked crosswalks or controlled intersections.” Pause before crossing and look both ways to make sure it’s safe before you enter the crosswalk. Once safe, proceed to cross
“Less daylight hours bring about a new set of challenges,” added Rolfe. “People still want to be out walking or running so making yourself highly visible is very important. Wear bright, even reflective, clothing.” Rolfe said it is also important for pedestrians to remain alert and not be dis-
tracted by music, electronic devices or pets. “Use extra caution during busier traffic times, 7:30 until 9 a.m. and 3 until 7 p.m. and use the sidewalks at all times unless there are none or they are obstructed. In which case walk only on the left side of the roadway or the shoulder of the highway, facing traffic approaching from the opposite direction.” Rolfe stated that choosing to walk home after consuming alcohol or drugs may seem to be a wiser choice but doing so can pose its own set of risks. “You still need to be very careful as a pedestrian. Your judgement is still impaired and you may be more likely to cross the road in the wrong place at the wrong time, or enter a crosswalk when it is not safe to do so.” He suggests, instead, to arrange for a designated driver and or walker to take you home or take a taxi or other form or ride sharing service.

Kodiaks Ryan Sullivan commits to Colgate University By Lori Larsen
Another Camrose Kodiaks player will be moving his hockey and future plans forward with a commitment to a post secondary school. Kodiaks forward Ryan Sullivan recently committed to Colgate University (NCAA Div. 1) in New York, USA. Ryan came to the Camrose Kodiaks in the 202021 season after playing for the Calgary Buffaloes organization. He has played for the Kodiaks for three years now in a total of 87 games garnering 30 goals, 60 assists and 90 points. During his this time he has also been an alternate captain for two years. “Ryan has been a great Kodiak,” noted Kodiaks head coach, Clayton Jardine. “He shows up every day ready and willing to put in the work to become a better hockey player on and off of the ice. “Ryan leads by example with his play on the ice and is a great teammate. I am really excited for Ryan and look forward to watching him chase his dream at the next level”. Honoured to commit to Colgate University Ryan remarked. “This opportunity wouldn’t have been possible without the support of my Coaches and teammates. I am looking forward to stepping foot on campus and contributing both on and off the ice. The Colgate values and style of play align with what I believe in as a person and player, making this an exciting decision”. After completing this season Ryan will be heading off to Colgate University in the fall of 2023. The pay off for hard work, commitment to the
game and the community and maintaining a momentum of moving forward becomes evident for these young hockey players when they are given opportunities, such as these, to grow in their sport and in their learning. Lisel Mascaluk, Pro Sports Photography

Owen Lamb scored for the Vikings last in the contest, but the Vikings came up short on the comeback bid this time. Goalie Rook turned away 33 of the 36 shots directed his way.

If you are being chased by a pack of taxidermists, do not play dead. The man who invented throat lozenges died last week. There was no coffin at his funeral. I love being a sports mom. Unless it’s cold. Or raining. Or snowing. Or too hot. Or really early in the morning. Or late at night. Or where there’s no bathrooms. Or when it’s far away. So basically, I love being a sports mom three percent of the time. My wife makes us put $5 in the “find jar” every time we make her find something we can’t locate in the house. After 13 months of saving, today we are buying a Ford Explorer. When I sign an email “Yours”, it is not a term of endearment. It means this email is now yours. I’m done with it and never want to see it again. Two cowboys are lost in the desert. One cowboy sees a tree that is draped in bacon. “A bacon tree! We’re saved!” he says. He runs to the tree and gets shot up with bullets. It wasn’t a bacon tree. It was a ham bush. Some of my friends exercise every day. Meanwhile, I’m watching a TV show I don’t like because the remote fell on the floor. Co-worker comes back from vacation. Everyone: “Oh my goodness, you look so tanned! How was your holiday?” Me: “How dare you leave me here alone?!” If a cow doesn’t produce milk, is it a milk dud or an udder failure? I used my teenage daughter’s body wash and now I know all of life’s answers and can’t stop rolling my eyes. An old man picked up a frog. It said, “Kiss me and I’ll turn into a princess!” He stuck it in his pocket. The frog said, “Aren’t you going to kiss me?” The old man said, “I’m 85 years old. I’d rather have a talking frog.” As you age, it’s ridiculous how fast birdwatching creeps up on you. You spend your whole life being indifferent to birds, and then one day, you’re like, “Oh my goodness! Is that a yellow-rumped warbler?”
Thoughts of Dogs – Part 2 It appears that you have loaded the dishwasher without me. Do you not need my services anymore? Did you lick the plates yourself? This is a disaster! Just a heads up: I will be running around the house as fast as possible for the next 30 seconds. I will have no regard for furniture or any individuals in my way. When I am done, do not ask me why I have done this, because I do not know. Sometimes when I am bored, I will stare at nothing and try to convince the human that there is a ghost. It often seems the human is jealous of me, because of how happy I get about the simplest things. I don’t know how to tell them that they can do that too. I do not shed. I sprinkle my glitter. I have misplaced my dog tag. It must have fallen off during my walk earlier. I am now completely unidentifiable. I can be whoever I want. I am mysterious. There is a rumour going around that I am desperate for cuddles. I wanted to come forward and say that it’s true. I am.
