Recently, Bill and Martha Sites made a trip to Denmark to celebrate her brother’s 70th birthday. The celebration was held at the amusement park Bakken just outside the deer garden north of Copenhagen. A fun day spent with family and friends was thoroughly enjoyed.

They visited Skagen, the tip of Denmark where two oceans meet. The Blue Planet, northern Europe’s largest aquarium and a middle age castle Sprøttrup, 1536. They also visited the Fregatten Jylland, an old steam frigat warship which is restored and used as a museum. They pronounced Legoland, pictured above, as “absolutely amazing!”

The trip coincided with the couple’s 25th wedding anniversary. Along for the trip – The Camrose Booster.

Camrose Branch No. 57ROYAL CANADIAN LEGION

REMEMBRANCEDAY

Tuesday, November 11, 2014The Camrose Branch No. 57 of the Royal Canadian

Legion is conducting their annual Wreath and Poppy Campaign. The purpose of the Poppy Fund is to provide assistance to ex-service personnel and their families who are in need. However, as the funds raised usually exceed that need, the surplus is used to improve life in the community through donations to local charities, purchase of hospital equipment as well as bursaries to local students that may have need.

The annual Remembrance Day Service will be held at the CRE starting shortly before 11:00 a.m. Members of the general public are asked to attend and please be seated no later than 10:45 am so the veterans may enter, and the service commence, timed so that the two minute silence may be observed at 11:00 a.m.

Come and help remember the participants of both world wars, Korea and Afghanistan as well as those personnel serving on United Nations Peace Keeping duties throughout the world today.

By Dan JensenOnly 133 more days

until the opening of the new City Hall.

Senior project manager (construction) Jocelyn Kew told City council in an Oct. 20 agenda package report that staff will be moving into the new building March 5 to 8, and that the first day of business will be on March 9.

Kew said that approxi-mately 50 men are working on the site each day, that the front curtain wall is now complete and is await-ing glass, and that the work on the mechanical units are expected to get underway Nov. 1.

City manager Dami-an Herle told council that construction change orders issued to date total $513,447, and that approximately 15 per cent ($197,750) of the initial $1.35 million contin-gency still remains.

“There have been a few more change orders than I would have liked to have seen,” said Herle. “My best viewpoint on that is assisted by our experienced project manager, who does not feel that there should be any large change orders remain-ing on the project. I can’t say for a fact that nothing will come up because if you are involved in a large con-struction project you simply can’t make that promise. I am certainly hoping, and I think we have a handle on the major issues that have been identified through the construction.”

Herle noted that the cement is now cured on the

front of the building and that the south windows will be installed shortly.

“At that point there real-ly is some closing to the build-ing,” he said. “After that any construction change orders should be of the relatively minor nature and hopefully there won’t be a lot of them to finish the project.”

Herle said the City of Camrose was able to pur-chase the three lots to the

south of the new City Hall from the provincial gov-ernment for less than the assessed value, and is expect-ing them to be available before the new City Hall is finished.

“We have asked Bird (management, the contrac-tor) to be in a position to move their construction trailers at the earliest pos-sible opportunity this win-ter and perhaps move into

one or two offices of the building to finish up the smaller type projects. We have full reason to believe they will cooperate, how-ever I don’t have an exact date on that.”

The parking lot will fea-ture lighting as well as elec-trical plug-ins.

“It (the parking lot) is designed for staff parking so vehicles are going to have to be able to start after sitting

outside all day at -35 C, or whatever the case may be,” said Herle.

The paving of the park-ing lot will happen as soon as the snow disappears and the ground dries.

“That is a project that we will be managing in house and letting out in house in terms of the contract,” said Herle. “We hope to have that done shortly after we move into the facility.”

Move-in dates set for new City Hall

By Dan JensenThe Camrose Heritage

Railway Station and Park and the Camrose and District Centennial Museum present-ed their 2015 budget requests to City council at a committee of the whole meeting Oct. 20.

Camrose Heritage Rail-way Station and Park is ask-ing for an operating grant of $28,968 to increase the weekly hours of the station coordinator from 20 to 25.

The Railway Station and Park received a grant of $23,175 for 2014.

“The Canadian Northern Society’s biggest challenge still remains adequate hours for the station coordinator to manage the overall fundrais-ing, including grants, educa-tional events, plan and orga-nize operations, and market in a way that promotes all activities that assist the sta-tion to be as independent financially as possible,” said railway station chair Glenys Smith. “We hope to be an asset to the immediate and greater community and be an integral part of promot-ing community development through tourism, as well as to preserve our unique history.”

The Camrose Heritage Railway Station and Park delivered educational pro-grams with hands-on activi-ties to 547 students and 125 adults in 2014. The Aborigi-nal Days celebration, which it hosted in partnership with the Camrose Arts Society, attracted a record crowd of over 1,000, while a Tribute to Prairie Women attracted 55 people for a storytelling outside the gazebo. The over-all theme for the displays and activities was Tribute to Canadians at War, including the role of the railway. Local stories were collected and compiled, as well as a story and monologue developed on Helen Fowlds, a First World War nurse.

“The Helen Fowlds story is now a book,” said Smith. “One of the books was donated to the public library and is now on the Trent University site to be used for research with cred-its to the Camrose Heritage Railway Station and Park. Plans have been made for other presentations of the story to the community in the coming months.”

A Victory Garden

planted at the Station in 2014 used companion plant-ing for pest control.

“Our goal is to establish the Camrose Heritage Rail-way Station as an organic eco-centre,” said Smith. “We welcome photogra-phers and artists to use the station’s 13 gardens. The gardens are visited from early spring until late fall by visitors from as far away as Ireland, United States and across Canada. Guests can take an interpretive tour of the gardens and site. More importantly, the gardens are used by our local people to sit and enjoy. We promote beautification of our city by example and plant by sharing our plants and information.”

The Camrose Heritage Railway Station and Park is projecting 2015 revenues of $75,493, including $10,500 from tea room sales, book-ings and caterings, and $12,000 from private dona-tions.

Camrose and District Centennial Museum is requesting $167,740 to cov-er the salaries of a full-time curator at $35 per hour,

a full-time technician at $18 per hour, and the cost of building maintenance, repairs and upgrades.

The grant the museum received from the City for 2014 was $60,000 ($34,800 cash and $25,200 for utili-ties, insurance, grounds upkeep and general main-tenance).

“In order for the Cam-rose and District Centennial Museum to run efficiently as an organization we require more staffing hours,” said a museum budget summary. “We currently have one part-time director of operations at 27 hours per week. We are unable to be proficient when we only have part-time mini-mum staff year round and we suffer from extreme burnout before the season is over due to under-staffing. This past season the director of opera-tions also banked 240 hours due to the need to be at the museum supervising staff and organizing and working the fundraisers.”

Museum treasurer Len Bell told council that while the museum receives grants from the provincial govern-ment for three summer staff,

those grants typically only cover 70 per cent of the total wages.

“I did a quick calcula-tion on one of our students this year and 30 per cent of his wage came to just over $2,400. We have been paying that out of pocket for the past several years. We would ask that the City help us out with that.”

Bell also told council that the museum recorded an 85.15 per cent increase in guest book signatures.

“That doesn’t necessarily mean an increase in atten-dance, but we actually had people manning our guest books, encouraging people to sign so that we could get an accurate count of the people that were actually coming onto our grounds.”

Camrose Association for Community Living and the Centra Cam Vocational Training Association provid-ed volunteers to assist with cleaning.

With 13 buildings hous-ing more than 80,000 Cam-rose and District Centennial Museum is one of the largest non-provincially run muse-ums in Alberta.

Railway Station, museum present budget requests

Murray Green, Camrose BoosterWork crews were busy enclosing the front curtain wall of the new

city hall building last week before the glass is installed.


Just as the body changes with age, so do the needs of the skin. While acne and breakouts may have been the bane of existence as an adolescent, wrinkles and dark spots are concerns as we age.

Skin changes are one of the most noticeable signs of aging. Sagging skin and wrinkles are two of the more common problems men and women encounteras they age.

As people get older, connective tissues in the skin that promote strength and elasticity have a tendency of breaking down. Furthermore, the blood vessels of the dermis become more fragile, which can lead to bruising. Also, sebaceous glands may produce less oil, making the skin less ableto moisturize itself. As a result, the skinthins out.

It is important to note these changes so that people can be proactive in their approach to skincare as they age. There are certain strategies to put in place that can make the difference in the appearance and health of the skin. While none of these are the magic “fountain of youth,” they go a long way to promoting a more youthful appearance.• Address dryness. If the skin is itchy or uncomfortable, or if you nd that there is extra

aking, lack of moisture could be a problem. Moisturizer should be the staple of a skincare regimen. Experiment with moisturizers until you nd the one that is the best matchfor your skin.

• Use sun protection. The sun is one of the single biggest contributors to unhealthy skin and premature signs of aging. Always wear sun protection products when going out in the sun, even on overcast days.

• Don’t tug or be rough on the skin. The skin becomes more delicate and prone to injury as a person ages. Therefore, unnecessary roughness while washing and drying can break capillaries or mar the skin in other ways. Be delicate, using cotton to wipe away makeup and avoid cleansers that have rough excoriators or other substances that can be roughon the skin.

• Revise makeup shades and products as needed. As skincare needs change, it pays to go with the ow in terms of the products you use and buy. What may have been attering a few years ago may not be attering now. Think about neutral or rosy shades in the types of foundations and blushers you select. Avoid anything that is too dramatic or drastic.

• Drink plenty of water. Dehydration can increase the risk of injury with regards to the skin, making it more susceptible to dryness and other issues. Be sure to always stay hydrated by consuming enough water to ward off feelings of thirst.

• Experiment with a facial. Facials can help promote blood � ow to the skin and improve the appearance of youth and vitality. In addition, a facial massage can feel invigorating. Check with a spa near you to see if they offer facial services. Talk with the staff about your skincare needs and ask for recommendations on the products that may work for you.

Camrose Chamber of Commercerecognizes small business excellence

ArmenareceiveswaterBy Murray Green

The Hamlet of Arme-na will soon have full water service provided by the Capital Region South-west Water Services Commission (CRSWSC).

The membership of the commission includes Beaumont, Calmar, Cam-rose County, Hay Lakes, Leduc, Leduc County and Millet.

A celebration of the water line’s completion will be held in Armena in mid-November indi-cated CRSWSC manager Kevin Cole at a Camrose County regular meeting on Oct. 14.

“Eventually, we will have to replace, or add another line to supply water. Adding Millet to the line has reduced the life of the water line by a year,” said Cole.

“We are experienc-ing a growth rate at 3.3 per cent each year. We are looking at twinning the line into Beaumont and to the airport. We are determining the improve-ments required to meet growth projections. We would increase rates to pay for the structure costs. We don’t have reserves, so if we start now by increas-ing the rate, we will have some funds to work with in five years.”

This year the water line was extended from Hay Lakes to Armena. Councillor Doug Lyseng wanted to know what that meant for an aver-age household.

“A normal household would use 20 cubic metres of water per month. If we increase our rates by five cents like we are pro-posing, it will be a little over $1. I’d say $1.20 per house each month. It is not a lot per month,” Cole explained.

Reeve Don Grego-rwich asked about the demand for more water in the future.

“Our lines to Armena can handle more water than is allocated to Arme-na. There is a possibility to bring more. We have to ask for more water to be allocated to us and then we distribute to our mem-bers,” said Cole. “Current-ly, Camrose County is at 3.56 cubic metres per hour. Leduc County isn’t using as much as they were allo-cated, so if they offered that up, there would be an opportunity to add more for Camrose County. The board can make decisions on allocation.”

CRSWSC is plan-ning for a steady increase in water demands to accommodate Camrose County.

HappyHalloween

from Grace Lutheran Church

ORIGIN OF HALLOWEEN AND TRICK OR TREATThe modern association of Halloween with ghoulish party feasts is rooted in the festival’s traditional links with the deceased. However, the real story is a

little different from modern myths. All Hallows Eve (All Saints Eve) is the night before All Saints (November 1) and All Souls (November 2) when Christians

remember all the ‘saints and martyrs’ and pray for the ‘souls of all the dead’. In Medieval Britain and Ireland, plain cakes called ‘souls’ were given out to the ‘soulers’, children and poor who went door to door saying prayers and singing

psalms for the dead. Each cake eaten is a soul released from Purgatory.

Soul, soul, a soul cake! I pray thee, good missus, a soul cake!One for Peter, two for Paul, Three for Him what made us all!

Keeping Active forHealthy Aging isSomething to Celebrateon Nov. 28

Camrose Seniors’ Coalition will host its third annual Cel-ebrating Seniors Day at the Mir-ror Lake Centre on Friday, Nov. 28. The theme: Keeping Active for Health Aging.

Many Camrose and area seniors are already active, volunteering their time, tal-ents, and skills to support all sorts of local programs. Many participate in churches and belong to service clubs. They shop in Camrose and host visits from out-of-towners, which is good for our local economy. As grandparents, they help care for grandchildren and keep family history alive as they pass sto-ries on to the next generation.

In recognition of seniors’ lives and community contri-butions, Camrose Seniors’ Coalition decided to hold its first Celebrating Seniors Day in 2012. The event has become an annual occasion.

Thanks to some gener-ous donations from local busi-nesses, service clubs, and CDSS (Camrose and District Support Services) tickets are still just $25/person. They are available until November 21 at CDSS (2nd Floor, Community Centre) or Service Options for Seniors on 48th Street. Call 780-672-0141 or 780-672-4131 for more information.

This year, Bernie Boser’s cousin is coming to town! Lots of people of all ages know Bernie very well, and hold him in high esteem as a great example of someone

who has been very active vol-unteering in our community since his retirement.

What people may not know is that Alberta musi-cian Jerry Huck is Bernie Boser’s cousin. In the tra-dition of 2012’s Phil Callo-way and 2013’s Bob Layton, Jerry’s afternoon show will cap Celebrating Seniors Day. Rich in stories and laughter, all channeled through some of the great singer-songwrit-ers of days gone by.

What else is on the menu?A pair of engaging pre-

senters from the Battle River Watershed Alliance will add an inter-generational touch with a photo presentation cel-

ebrating the many ways that people of all ages can enjoy our lovely part of East Cen-tral Alberta. The BRWA mis-sion, “To have a watershed that sustains all life by using sound knowledge, wisdom and wise actions to preserve our watershed for future gen-erations” will appeal to folks who well remember conserva-tion practices growing up in rural communities.

In addition to the open-ing ‘ice-breaker’, there will be plenty of opportunities for fellowship and to visit dis-plays featuring senior-friend-ly activities and active aging information.

Second Thought

Shauna Wilton,Political Studies, Augus-

tana Campus,University of Alberta

In the past week, there have been two attacks on Canadian soldiers by individuals who appear to be linked to radical Islam. The deaths of the two soldiers—the first in a hit-and-run outside of a government building in Quebec, and the second in a shooting in front of the War Memorial next to Parliament Hill—have shocked Canadians. The shooting in front of the War Memorial, in particu-lar, can be viewed as both a physical and symbolic attack on Canada. As someone who

has lived in Ottawa, the images of shots being fired in Parliament and police with machine guns running through the streets of downtown Otta-wa had a visceral effect. The shooting on Parlia-ment Hill is virtually unprecedented in Canadi-an history and, certainly, nothing most Canadians ever expected to see.

The linking of these acts to international ter-rorism and ISIS is trou-bling. While some are saying that this was to be expected consider-ing Canada’s ongoing role in the War on Ter-ror and the recent “call to arms” by ISIS against Canada, what is most important to consider is the way we react to these events. Some are calling for increased powers for the Canadian state and security agencies, or an increased role in the war against terror, while oth-ers blame the Canadian government for putting us

is this position and call for a complete withdrawal of our military from over-seas operations.

Shortly after 9/11, the Supreme Court of Canada stated: “On the one hand stands the manifest evil of terrorism and the ran-dom and arbitrary taking of innocent lives, rippling out in an ever-widening spiral of loss and fear. Governments, expressing the will of the governed, need the legal tools to meet this challenge. On the other hand stands the need to ensure that those legal tools do not under-mine the values that are fundamental to our demo-cratic society — liberty, the rule of law, and the principles of fundamental justice — values that lie at the heart of the Canadian constitutional order and

the international instru-ments Canada has signed. In the end, it would be a Pyrrhic victory if ter-rorism were defeated at the cost of sacrificing our commitment to those val-ues” (R v. Suresh, 2002).

These sentiments are particularly important in the context of what has happened in Canada over the past week. We do not want to sacrifice the val-ues of Canada or Cana-dian democracy in order to fight terrorism. We need to ensure that our reaction to these events, particularly as Parlia-ment prepares to debate increased security powers, is a measured response rather than an emotional backlash based in fear, sorrow, or anger.

For over a decade now, civil rights have been slowly eroded in many parts of the Western world in an effort to combat the threat of terrorism. Citi-zens in many countries are under increasing levels of state surveil-lance, ranging from the widespread use of CCTC cameras to the monitor-ing of personal correspon-dence. As a society, we need to strive to find a balance between empow-ering police and security agencies to do their jobs effectively and protecting the fundamental rights and freedoms that form the basis of our citizen-ship. However, this is not an easy balance to find and finding it will require inter-party dialogue and an ongoing effort from all Canadians.

Sorensonissuesstatement

Minister of State (Finance) and Mem-ber of Parliament for Crowfoot Kevin Soren-son issued the following statement on the events in Ottawa last week.

“In the midst of dan-gerous and tragic events yesterday on Parliament Hill, I witnessed some of Canada’s finest men and women in uniform display bravery that did our Nation proud. Many others could have been harmed, but the courage of our first responders kept us safe.

“My prayers are with the family and friends of Corporal Nathan Cirillo of the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders of Canada. Likewise, my sympathies remain with the family and friends of Warrant Officer Patrice Vincent, who was killed earlier this week by an ISIL-inspired terrorist. We will forever remem-ber their sacrifice and willingness to protect us.

“This week’s events are a grim reminder that Canada is not immune to the types of attacks we have seen elsewhere around the globe.

“Together, we will remain vigilant against those at home or abroad who wish to harm us. We live in an increas-ingly dangerous and uncertain world, but Canada remains strong. Canadians will never be intimidated.”

Save the museumI am writing this letter

to bring your attention to the current situation of the Camrose and District Centennial Museum.

I am a Grade 9 student at Our Lady of Mount Pleas-ant School. I volunteer at the Centennial Museum and have been doing it for two years. My experiences in the past two years have taught me so much about the history and the lives of the people of Camrose and area.

Recently, it has come to my attention that, with-out additional funding, the Camrose and District Centennial Museum could close its doors. I am asking the City of Camrose and its citizens to help the Cen-tennial Museum through financial support. It is my belief that we should support our local museum since it holds the key to unlocking our history.

Following in her moth-er’s footsteps by joining the Camrose Golden Tones was a natural choice for Gwen Lys-ter, now the president of the group. She joined 10 years ago as an alto, which was also her mother’s vocal range.

“My mother had a mar-velous alto voice. I can’t compare with her, but I try,” Lyster said. “There was always music in our home. I’ve always loved to sing.”

The 27-member group, with both men and women, is a four-part harmony choir with soprano, alto, tenor and bass singers. Members range in age from 65 to late 80s. The group typically has 10 performances at senior resi-dences in Camrose leading up to Christmas and 10 or more performances in the spring.

“It’s a great way to get together for seniors. We take on some pretty big stuff sometimes,” Lyster said. “This Christmas we’re taking on a Christmas can-

tata called Carol of Christ-mas by John W. Peter-son. The composer has done a really great job. There’s a lot of harmony and solos.”

She noted that no one in the choir is a professional

singer, but they all have one thing in common: they love to sing.

The choir began in 1985 and one change since then is that the singers stay close to home for per-formances, whereas the

group used to travel as far as B.C.

Emma Carl, who has been the choir’s director for about 15 years, said the main changes to the group over the years have been the singers themselves, though

some return for many years, as well as the way of pur-chasing music. She said that there are now increased copyright rules as well as more awareness of the rules.

“We are very careful on anything that has copy-right,” Carl said.

She noted that while they have had other performances as challenging as this year’s cantata, her role will be sim-plified somewhat as all of the parts of the music are already put together.

“I enjoy seeing the prog-ress from practise to prac-tise and finally coming to completion,” Carl said. “We really work out.”

The group will lose its pianist at the end of this season as Buffy daSilva is moving, so the choir will be looking for a new pianist to begin next September.

The Golden Tones prac-tise every Monday afternoon at 1:30 p.m. in the choir room at Messiah Lutheran Church. All seniors with a love for singing are welcome to join.

The Camrose Golden Tones perform. The choir has started up a new seasonand is learning the Carol of Christmas cantata.

?? ?? ?? ?LOCAL EXPERTSANSWER YOUR QUESTIONS

While people from our trading area defi nitely want a sunny destination break during the peak travel season, we are noticing our local tourists are

interested in more exciting plans once they reach their chosen hot weather resorts. While travel to Cuba, Hawaii, Costa Rica, Mexico and Caribbean hotspots used to be all about R & R on the beach, the trend has swung more to experiencing culture, history, local food and entertainment. We work with travel partners world-wide so we can fi nd the perfect fi t for our clients. If you want a private guide to take you on a tour of Mayan Ruins that is personalized for you, we can arrange that. We routinely book clients to travel back in time by taking the Historic Tour of Havana where you can visit the Café where Hemmingway sat to write every day. For clients who crave adventure, zip lining through the rain forest in Costa Rica or riding a bobsled in Jamaica may be more your speed. If you always thought surfi ng looks like fun, think about doing a private lesson on the North Shore. Even at an all-inclusive resort, we encourage you to ask the locals for a recommendation to get out and enjoy

some local cuisine and culture. Combining relaxation with adventure can create a once-in-a-lifetime experience. So much to see . . . so little time! See us today!

Cellular shades are the most energy effi cient type of shade. The attractive honeycomb design creates pockets of air that insulate windows from heat and cold to lower energy bills year round.

Cellular shades also offer great sound absorption to quiet rooms with hard fl ooring or vaulted ceilings. They come in a wide variety of colors and opacity levels for personalized privacy and light control. Fabrics come in widths up to 144” and can also be made in a convenient side opening design for wider windows or patio doors. They are a great choice for room dividers and closet doors as well.

Cordless cellular shades also provide safety solutions for homes with children or pets. The popular top down bottom up or “café style”option allows cellular shades to provide exterior view and natural light while still maintaining privacy. They can also be made in specialty shapes like arches, octagons, hexagons and triangle shaped windows.

Loss of heat through skylights can be tremendous in the winter, and cellular shades will be insulating while still allowing natural light to come in.

A perfect fi nishing touch for your cell shade is an elegant cornice. They come in a variety of wood fi nishes or upholstery fabrics to complement any decor.

Q. What types of Commercial printing does the Booster produce?

The quick answer is this: if your job involves ink on any type or weight of paper we can probably produce it for you. We have been in the printing business for decades. While years ago

many of our printing jobs were relatively simple products – the likes of business cards, letterheads and envelopes, today we are also expert at much more complex work. Almost every day we produce a wide array of printed matter for use in the oilfi eld. Multi-part: Driver’s Daily Logs, Hazard Identifi cation forms, Trip Inspection forms are common jobs for our skilled printing division staff. Weekly, we perfect cheques, laden with security features, once supplied exclusively by an eastern-based company for banks.

We design and sell thousands of labels, monthly. Same for specialized forms used in the medical fi eld. Naturally, we still print all types of offi ce forms and the type of jobs which gave us a start half a century ago. Today’s business stationery, though, is far more likely to be process color printed versus the standard black ink, once used almost exclusively. And, one more reminder, you can also count on The Camrose Booster for your signage needs.

Having a hearing loss today is not as uncommon as one may believe.

The following statistics from the Better Hearing Institute illustrate this gap between those with hearing losses and

those who seek care.- 1 in 4 workers exposed to high levels of noise will

develop a hearing loss- only 13% of general practitioners screen for hearing

loss.- 3 in every 10 people over age 60 have a hearing loss- 1 in every 6 people between ages 41 to 59 has a

hearing loss.- 1 in every 14 Generation X’ers (29-40) already has a

hearing loss.- 1.4 million children (under 18) have hearing problems- Only 1 in 5 people who could benefi t from a hearing

aid actually wear one.- 9 out of 10 hearing aid users report improvements in

their quality of life.

Clearly, these statistics are startling. This truly indicates that a lot of people are choosing to go without the benefi ts of solutions for their hearing loss. Most often, this can be due to confusion over what benefi t hearing aids can provide and which type of hearing aid is best for a specifi c person’s loss.

Actually, we could recommend a wide variety of unique travel options, but we invite you to consider a luxury cruise. When the word cruise comes to mind, you will probably think of

a ship the size of a football fi eld, with 5000 or more passengers, great food and tons of entertainment.

Bed races raise$15,000 to helpyouth at risk

By Laurel NadonCamrose Booster

After just over a month in Canada, Rotary exchange student Maciel Rudnick from Brazil had already taken an interest in a few things distinctly Canadian: Tim Hortons and the word “eh”.

“I’m really enjoying Tim Hortons, I wish we had one in Brazil,” Rudnick laughed, after making a presentation at the Rotary Club’s meet-ing on Sept. 29. He said that he’s expecting to soon find the word “eh” creeping into his vocabulary with his new friends.

Rudnick grew up in the city of Pien in south-ern Brazil, living above his family’s supermarket and hotel. He then moved to the city of Curitiba when he was 15 to attend school along with his older sister. He’s familiar with youth exchanges as his father is a Rotarian and his sister went on exchange to Japan in 2011.

He said that highlights of his time in Canada so far include attending the Saskatchewan Roughriders versus Edmonton Eskimos football game, school foot-ball games, meeting with other local Rotary exchange students, and visiting the West Edmonton Mall water-park. He was also excited to

see snow, as it snows in Bra-zil about once in 20 years.

“I’m really enjoying here, everyone is really friendly,” Rudnick said. “I thought it would be harder to make friends, but it’s not that hard.”

During his slideshow presentation for local Rota-ry Club members, Rudnick pointed out a few differ-ences between Brazil and Canada such as the life

expectancy in Brazil of 74.3 years versus 81.5 years in Canada. Brazil, claimed by Portugal in 1500, declared independence in 1822 and is now a Federal Republic with 26 states and one fed-eral district. The main lan-guage is Portuguese and a few of the main agricultural foods are coffee, sugar cane, tobacco, corn, soybeans and cocoa.

Rudnick shared with

the group that the main sports in Brazil are soc-cer and volleyball and that the country is known for its colourful and lively fes-tivals such as Oktoberfest and Carnival. He said that his favourite past times are origami, dodgeball and architecture.

Rudnick noted that out of the six B’s developed by the Rotary Club of Cam-rose, he’s focusing on Be Curious and Be First, mak-ing a conscious effort to try new things and experience everything he can. He also hopes to return to Canada once his exchange is over.

Donna Phillips, chair of the Rotary Youth Exchange Committee, said that many exchange students have no accents and are fluent in English by the time they leave Canada.

“It will be amazing what their English will be like once they go home,” Phillips said. “I find that they all get the travel bug and want to travel the world. It’s a life-changing experience, they don’t look at life or the world the same.”

She noted that exchange students return home much more independent and are also excellent public speak-ers as they are expected to speak at every Rotary Club meeting during their stay. Many develop friendships

with host families that last a lifetime, with repeat vis-its.

Phillips said that it adds another dimension to classes to have a student from another country.

“It exposes all of us to a different culture,” Phil-lips said. “Rotary’s purpose is to develop tolerance and appreciation of other cul-tures.”

She said that returning students, especially those returning from a poorer country, notice the contrast in the standard of living. One returning student refused to spend hundreds of dollars on a graduation dress because that amount of money could buy a whole year of education in Ven-ezuela.

“They realize how for-tunate they are to live in Canada when they return,” Phillips said.

The Rotary Club of Camrose sponsors an out-bound student every sec-ond year and will begin the search process again next September. Kyle Nickel is currently on exchange in the Netherlands and will return next July.

Since the 1980s the Rotary Club of Cam-rose has hosted about 20 inbound students and sponsored 24 outbound students.

By Murray GreenCountry music star

George Canyon will be per-forming before a full house during the Camrose Per-forming Arts Centre grand opening gala on Nov. 1.

“I love the opportunity to play at home in Alberta. Camrose is a great city with great folks,” said Canyon, about returning to the area.

Canyon has played at the Big Valley Jamboree and smaller venues.

“I have been in the music business for 24 years now professionally,” he said. “I welcome the chance to play for any and all crowds. I remember playing in pubs when there was nobody in the crowd, so I appreciate any audience.”

It’s hard to believe Can-yon, a man of faith, once abandoned his musical aspirations years ago to work as a bylaw officer in order to support his family.

His wife, Jennifer, urged him to keep writing songs and performing; he felt that it was no longer practical and put music on the back burner.

In 2004, Jennifer per-suaded him to audition for USA Network’s Nashville Star – an internation-ally televised performance competition similar to the American Idol format. Can-yon showed up and wowed the worldwide audiences.

“I will be singing a variety of songs from all my records and my repertoire in Camrose,” said Canyon. “The new album includes singles from the last 10 years of my career since Nashville Star.”

Canyon’s integrity and dedication to his family lives as a theme through the songs he writes and the stories he tells with his music and the way he lives his life.

It is also the same force that drives him to inspire youth through his role as a national spokesperson for the Juvenile Diabe-tes Research Foundation (JDRF).

Diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at age 14, Can-yon, a young air cadet, was informed that he would have to forgo his ambitions

and dreams to serve his country as a pilot in the Canadian Air Force.

Years later he would learn to manage his disease through diet, lifestyle and the effective use of insulin pump technology.

In 2009, Canyon passed a series of medical tests and as a result of this was able to obtain his pilot’s license.

Later that year, Can-yon took his personal story and his own plane across Canada and organized sev-eral talks and concerts to inspire youngsters afflicted with type 1 diabetes, with

his inspiring message, a project he named The Sky’s Not The Limit.

He urged them to take ownership of their disease, pursue their dreams, and achieve their goals.

“Being a kid is hard enough without having a disease that limits your choices. If I can tell my sto-ry and change a life or two, that’s the kind of imprint I want to leave,” Canyon said.

The message has been effective, and his story con-tinues to resonate.

In the fall of 2010, he performed and spoke to

over 20,000 people at Dodg-er Stadium in Los Ange-les at a JDRF fundraising event. His 2010 hit single “I Believe in Angels” has been adopted as a theme song by the JDRF in the United States.

He has won multiple Juno, East Coast Music Awards and Canadian Country Music Awards, including a Humanitarian of the Year Award for his philanthropic endeavors.

His new album, Decade of Hits, was released in ear-ly September and included a cross Canada tour.

The album is a look back on 10 years of Can-yon hits – from Nashville Star to now – that made you smile, laugh and love, together with some exciting new songs including “Slow Dance” and “Crazy Love.”

“The album is a cel-ebration of the last 10 years of fan support and media support in my home coun-try, Canada,” he said. “My wife and I, and our chil-dren, live on our ranch just west of High River and we are proud Canadians. Having the opportunity to share my success with the greatest fans in the world is an amazing feeling.”

When Canyon is per-forming live on stage, he is most at home. He has the entire audience in the palm of his hand and you just can’t help but want to be a part of his unique family.

Canyon is one of Cana-da’s favourite country music artists and one of the most successful entertainers in the country today.

Canyon plays at Performing Arts Centre gala

By Murray GreenCBC’s award winning

radio sketch comedy pro-gram, The Irrelevant Show will be on stage at the Bailey Theatre on Friday, Nov. 7.

The performance will be taped in front of a live audi-ence.

Producer Peter Brown and regular actors Neil Grahn, Jana O’Connor, Mark Meer and Donovan Workun will be joined on stage by actor Cathy Derkach and musician Jan Randall.

“The Irrelevant Show has been on and off the air for 10 years now. It started out as a couple of specials for CBC radio and then onto a mid-season replacement. We are now into our fifth full season on CBC radio,” explained actor Workun, who is an original member of the team.

The shows airs every Saturday (beginning in Jan-uary)and again on Thurs-days for those who miss the first airing. “It is a sketch comedy show for families, so we do a lot of superheroes stuff and everything that is Canadianna with a hilarious twist,” said Workun.

This is the first trip to Camrose for the highly acclaimed show. CBC wants local input on which seg-ments should be used in future radio shows.

“The difference between hearing us on Saturdays for 26 minutes and seeing us live for close to two hours is the audience,” said Workun. “The audience helps it come alive with participation.”

CBC needs the audience participation, through laugh-ter response, to determine which of the sketches should be included in the new sea-son of The Irrelevant Show.

“We tend to base our editing decisions on what sketches go over well on the night. Sometimes an audi-ence likes a joke so much we just end the sketch right there,” he said.

The live audience will see all of the sketches that may or may not make the radio show. “The live show offers a whole lot that the radio audience doesn’t get - live sound effects and music, the banter between sketches, and seeing how all the ele-ments come together live,” revealed Workun. “It is cool to listen to the show on the

radio, but to see it live is pretty exciting and quite unique.”

The Camrose show will feature two 45-minute ses-sions of comedy. Each ses-sion will be turned into a 26 minute radio show to give Camrose two dates on the air for the rest of Canada to share in the new year. The full season will have 25 shows.

“When we are in Cam-rose we will be able to tell the audience that the shows will air on whatever those dates will be, so they can hear the ones recorded in Camrose,” informed Workun.

The actors like to add some local comedy.

“When we do our shows we like to add some local humour into the show. We will come up with some jokes at the beginning, middle and at the end that high-light the fact that we are in Camrose performing,” said Workun. “Each audience is a little bit different. I’m from Edmonton and I find the Alberta audiences are simi-lar. We like to get the audi-ence involved and perhaps get them to sing for us and

respond as masses in some sketches. It becomes part of the show and it makes it fun.”

Workun said they want-ed to go to Camrose because they know the community is behind the arts with the Bailey and the performing arts centre.

“The Bailey is a great venue and we are looking for a fresh audience to give us feedback. It gives us a boost to go to a different venue. The director, music director and sound man are on stage, so you get to see everything happening. It is a cool visual like a 30s radio play and we work with new material all of the time. At one point it would be cool to do a tour with the best sketches we have done.”

We have a pair of tickets to the show to give away. If you’re interested, just email [email protected], and put “Camrose” in the subject line of your email. They’ll draw for a pair of tickets and contact the winner.

Tickets for the exciting comedy show are available at the Bailey Box Office.

By Murray GreenEdmonton songwriters

and music performers Al Brant, Terry Morrison and Kevin Cook will be present-ing an evening of the songs of John Prine at the Bailey Theatre, Nov. 1 at 7:30 p.m.

The songwriters have joined forces with backup support from Mike Lent, Paul ‘Duke’ Paetz and Cam Neufeld.

All six of these musi-cians are recognized record-ing artists in their own right.

“The music and song-writing of John Prine con-tinues to be an inspiration to many on the strength of his unparalleled ability to bal-ance wit and wisdom with morality and human folly,” said Morrison.

Primed on Prine will feature such numbers as “Blue Umbrella,” “Hello In There,” “Please Don’t Bury Me” and many others from the large catalogue of Prine compositions.

“The Bailey Theatre in Camrose is an old theatre that has been completely refurbished. It is a beautiful venue and is actively promot-ing live shows and we are happy to perform there,” said Morrison.

Prine is an American country/folk singer-song-writer. He has been active as a composer, recording artist, and live performer since the early 1970s.

He learned to play the guitar at the age of 14. Sub-sequently serving in West Germany with the U.S. armed forces, by the late 1960s he had moved to Chi-cago, where he worked as a postman, writing and sing-ing songs as a hobby. Becom-

ing a part of the city’s folk revival, he was discovered by Kris Kristofferson, resulting in the production of Prine’s self-titled debut album in 1971. After receiving critical acclaim, Prine focused on his musical career.

After struggling with

squamous cell cancer in 1998, Prine’s vocals deep-ened into a gravel-voice, resulting in the award-winning album Fair and Square (2005).

He is cited as one of the most influential songwrit-ers of his generation. He is

known for humorous lyrics about love, life, and current events, as well as serious songs with social commen-tary, or which recollect mel-ancholy tales from his life.

Tickets for the show are available at the Bailey Box Office.

Grains for the Hungry has successful harvestBy Dan Jensen

Fourteen combines and approximately 20 volun-teers made quick work of a 150 acre Kingman Grains for the Hungry canola field Oct. 15.

“We’re thrilled with the great turnout,” said Kingman Grains for the Hungry project coordina-tor Guy Anderson.

“To have this many people here donating their time and labour is pretty amazing.”

The Kingman Grains for the Hungry project was undertaken by the 20-member Kingman Marketing Group as a way of raising money for the Canadian Foodgrains Bank. Camrose and area agribusinesses donated the crop inputs seed, fertilizer and insurance, while volunteers supplied the manual labour that totalled between 300 and 400 hours.

“We were blessed with a good crop so it should be interesting to see what our final fun-draising total will be,” said Anderson. “The crop prices are down from what they were last year when we raised $96,000 (for the Canadi-an Foodgrains Bank) but we are still hoping that we will be within 75 per cent of that number when it comes time to sell (the grain).”

The decision on when to put the combines to work was made within a couple of days.

“We set this thing up two nights ago with the idea of starting at noon on Oct. 15,” said Ander-son, “but it looked like it was going to rain so we called everybody and said we wanted to start at 10 a.m. instead.”

The use of the land was donated by Don Boettger and his family.

“The Canadian Foodgrains Bank was something that my dad was very interested in years ago so when the opportunity came up to honour his memory I felt that it was only f it-ting that we go ahead and donate the land for this year,” said Boett-ger.

“It is a small contri-bution to make to help someone else.”

The funds Cana-dian Foodgrains Bank receives from projects like Kingman Marketing Group’s Grains for the Hungry are matched four to one by the federal gov-ernment.

Canadian Foodgrains Bank is the only orga-nization in the country that receives four to one

funding,” said Anderson, noting that a $100,000 donation could eventually wind up being $400,000.

“A lot of organizations receive one to one fund-ing but the Canadian Foodgrains Bank is the

only one that receives four to one.”

Kingman Grains for the Hungry was one

of 32 harvest fundrais-ing projects undertaken in Alberta in 2013, and one of 200 across Cana-da. The total amount of grain donated by Cana-dian farmers benefitted 2.1 million people in 37 countries.

“One of the things we all agree on is that people should not go hungry,” Canadian Foodgrains Bank regional coordina-tor Terrance Barg. “This project is a chance for us to be part of something bigger. We have so much in our area that some-times we forget our bless-ings.”

The Canadian Foodgrains Bank has provided more than 1.1 million tonnes of foods and seeds worth over $682 million to millions of people in 78 coun-tries since its inception in 1983, and is now one of Canada’s leading food assistance organizations.

“The story of the Foodgrains Bank is the story of how people across Canada grasped the Bible’s call for those of us who have more than we need to share with those who don’t have enough,” said Canadian Foodgrains Bank execu-tive director Jim Corne-lius. “It’s a call that has taken root and grown over the past 30 years, enabling the Foodgrains Bank and its member agencies to respond to the needs of people around the world who don’t have enough to eat.”

The Kingman Mar-keting Group will be cel-ebrating the Grains for the Hungry project har-vest with a banquet at the Kingman Hall Nov. 15. Doors to the hall open will open at 5:30 p.m., with the banquet start-ing at 6 p.m.

Fourteen combines were used toharvest 150 acres of canola on aBoettger field Oct. 15.

Kevin and Ken Boettger, Wally Janzen and Isaac Boettger (sitting on the steps) pose for a photo before combining the 150 acres of canola. The proceeds from the harvest will be donated to the Canadian Foodgrains Bank, which has provided more than 1.1 million tonnes of food and seeds worth over $682 million to people in 78 countries.

By Murray GreenWinning Alberta Junior

Hockey League games in Fort McMurray is a tough task, but the fired up Cam-rose Kodiaks pulled out a 2-1 victory, Oct. 17.

“They are a very good north division team and they always have been. The Kodiaks and Fort McMur-ray have a lot of history together with playoff series, so it felt good to beat them in their own barn,” said Kodiaks leading scorer Nel-son Gadoury, who has seven goals in 10 games.

Braeden Salverda net-ted the first tally in the opening period and he assisted on defenceman Dal-las Bergstrom’s first marker of the season in the third to provide the offence in the close checking contest.

“It was a tight game, back and forth for awhile. We stuck to our fore check-ing and didn’t give them too much,” said Gadoury.

Goalie Devin McDonald stopped 21 of the 22 shots sent in his direction. Cam-rose fired 36 at the Oil Bar-ons’ net.

“Devin has been unbe-lievable for us all year,” said Gadoury. “It’s crazy he hasn’t been getting more looks from schools because I think he is the top goalie in the league. We need to play the full 60 minutes.”

What a difference sev-en seconds can make. The Kodiaks notched two goals in the short time frame

during the first period that set the tone of the game in Bonnyville.

Jody Sick and Scott Fer-guson accomplished the feat. Ryker Leer and Salverda helped on the first power play marker. Then Landon Pilger won a draw to Mark Nerland who sent the puck on to Ferguson. Camrose just missed the record fast-est two goals by two seconds.

McDonald came up even bigger the next night as the Kodiaks shut out the Bonny-ville Pontiacs 3-0 on Oct. 18. He turned away all 32 shots he faced, while the Kodiaks only had seven shots in the last two periods for a total of 19.

“The shutouts are nice, but our goal is to come out every night and be our best,” said Gadoury. “We had two bad games in where we let the other team come back. We have that extra confi-dence knowing if we work hard we can get the win on any given night. We have to work hard to avoid other teams trying to come back on us.”

Gadoury netted a hat trick in the first game of the season.

“I was pretty lucky to get off to a fast start. Two rookies, Cole McBride and Danton Davis, are really good players and they make my job a lot easier,” said the veteran. “It’s up to coach, but hopefully we can stay together.”

Camrose hits the road

Kodiaks drainOil Barons inmatch of two rivals

for two games on Oct. 31 and Nov. 1 with the Can-more Eagles. The next home game for the Kodiaks is on Nov. 7 when the Sherwood Park Crusaders provide the opposition. Then, on Nov. 9, the Kodiaks entertain the Eagles in a rematch.

Bear factsCamrose reached the

top five in the national

rankings last week. The two wins moved them up a notch from number six. All top five teams represent a dif-ferent league and appear to be hungry for a Royal Bank Cup appearance.

Spruce Grove is in the number 12 spot, but have lost twice to the Kodiaks while playing two more games.

On Nov. 8, the Kodiaks will be at the Camrose Pizza 73 location helping rais-ing money for the Chil-dren’s Miracle Network. The players will be help-ing make pepperoni smile pizzas throughout the day and signing autographs. Pizza 73 will also be giv-ing away hockey game tickets.

The name of the game may be slightly unusual, but the game itself is straight forward and quickly attract-ing a diverse age group.

The local Pickleball Club has seen its age group great-ly expand in the past year as well as an increase in membership to 40 members. President Dean Edwards noted that the club began as a group for seniors four years ago.

“It’s now morphed in the past year,” Edwards said. “We’ve got 11-year-olds up to 76-year-olds playing.”

He described pickleball as table tennis on a bad-minton court. Players use a wooden paddle and wiffle ball with rules similar to tennis. With no overhand serves allowed, small courts which mean less running, a slower wiffle ball versus a tennis ball and a low net, the game is open for a wide variety of ages and skill lev-els.

In fact, Edwards has been legally blind since 1995 due to retinitis pigmentosa, an inherited and degenera-

tive eye disease, but that doesn’t prevent him from competing in the sport.

“Other people with slight handicaps can play as well,” Edwards said. “The idea of the game is to make it totally inclusive. You have

more time to react so you can have longer rallies. It offers fitness to a wider variety of people than we’ve had before. It’s such a social event.”

Edwards said that while good hand-eye coordination

and some background play-ing squash, badminton, rac-quetball or tennis may be helpful, most new players are surprised by how fast they learn the game.

“You can be quite com-petitive in two games.”

He noted that pickleball was started in the southern States and “the snowbirds brought it home. It’s the weirdest sport name there is, you don’t need pickles.”

While players wait in the sidelines for a turn on the court, there are often jokes about the name of the game and various sugges-tions for how it came about. The game was invented dur-ing the summer of 1965 on Bainbridge Island, Wash-ington, at the home of then State Representative Joel Pritchard. The plastic per-forated ball used for the game was a ball enjoyed by Pickles, the family’s cocker spaniel. Whenever the ball went out of bounds, Pickles jumped up to reclaim his toy, running off with the ball.

“Whenever you tell peo-ple you play pickleball, they say, ‘What’s pickleball?’” chuckled Dwight Brown,

who has played for less than a year. He said he enjoys that new players are able to pick up the sport quick-ly and be competitive with long-time players.

Lou Richard, who has been playing for two years, says the sport is quite enjoy-able.

“It’s a game that gives you a good workout, but even if you have bad knees or ankles, you can still play.”

The Camrose club has had members compete in tournaments in Cochrane, Spruce Grove and Black-falds, and will host its own tournament next spring.

The club meets at the Community Centre field-house on Monday and Wednesday from 10 a.m. to noon and every second Saturday from 7:30 to 9:30 p.m., as well as at the Mir-ror Lake Centre on Tues-day and Thursday from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m., and 7:30 to 9:30 p.m. The cost is a $20 annual membership fee as well as small daily fees for the centres. To learn more, drop in during game times or contact Dean Edwards at 780-678-2643.

Hockey Vikings earn four pointsBy Murray Green

The Augustana Vikings bounced back with two con-vincing victories on the ice. The men’s squad won 8-1 and 6-3 over the Portage Voyageurs.

In the first game, Alex Rogers and Jeff Lorenz each garnered two goals, while Con-nor McLaughlin, Eric Macoret-ta, Corey Kosloski and Devon Hobbs collected the single tallies for the Vikings. Goalie Andy Williams stopped 14 of 15 shots for the win.

In the rematch, Rogers collected a hat trick to lead the offence. Logan Sproule, Koslos-ki and Dane Bonish added sin-gle markers. Williams made 25 saves in 28 shots on the busier night.

The NAIT Ooks provide the opposition in the EnCana Arena on Nov. 13.

GolfAugustana golfer Brax-

ton Fox shot rounds of 82 and 79 for a total of 161 at a national event. He represented the Alberta Colleges Athletic Conference and the Vikings at Cegap Champlain St. Law-rence in Quebec City at the Club de Golf Lorette on Oct. 14 to 17.

He placed 61st in a field of about 80 golfers. The third round was cancelled due to inclement weather and unplay-able course conditions.

Volleyball The women’s team defeat-

ed the Grande Prairie Wolves in two 3-2 matches to start the season off on a winning note. They beat Grande Prai-rie 21-25, 18-25, 25-20, 25-21 and 15-10 on Oct. 17 in a great comeback. The Vikings started stronger the next day and won 25-22, 22-25, 25-12, 14-25 and 15-10 to earn the sweep.

On the men’s side, the Vikings won 3-1 (25-27, 25-21, 25-16 and 25-15) on Friday and 3-2 on Saturday (25-21, 20-25, 25-22, 20-25 and 15-10) to earn points. Augustana hosts the Lakeland Rustlers on Oct. 31 with women’s action beginning at 6 p.m. and the men’s contest serving at 8 p.m.

BasketballAugustana swept its

series against Grande Prai-rie in women’s basketball on Oct. 17 and 18. The ladies won 47-43 in a low scoring affair on the first night and then won 62-57 in the rematch. Richelle Wagner was the leading scorer with 53 in two games. Both Lyndal Tollefson and Amanda Stonehouse netted 46 points in Grande Prairie.

Augustana lost both games against the Wolves, 75-61 and 77-71. Joshua Nich-ol led the Vikings with 69 points in two games. Anton Paszek and Darian Smigorows chipped in with 66 points.

The hoop teams play the home opener on Oct. 30 when they face the Concordia Thun-der at 6 and 8 p.m.

“It’s one of the most impressive vehicles to come out in quite some time,” said Camrose Chrys-ler sales manager Noel Skoglund.

“It is designed with an amazing degree of versatil-ity and is bursting with technology, comfort and upscale details.”

All wheel driveJourney All Wheel

Drive not only grabs your attention it grabs the road as well. The system makes easy work of wet, snowy or ice-laden roads. When the system senses slippage, it immediately responds with a transfer of power to the rear wheels for a very noticeable uptick in driving performance.

seat flips forward to reveal a bin ideal for concealing personal items. The front door map pockets, centre console and glove box pro-vide even more room to safely store the things you just can’t leave home with-out.

The standard 60/40 split-folding and reclining second-row seating offers spacious, flexible comfort. Carrying younger passen-gers is a breeze with the available class-exclusive integrated child booster seats, and they are also easily entertained with the available rear-seat video system. Your passengers will have easy access to their available 50/50 split-folding third-row seats thanks to rear doors that open 90 degrees, and the Tilt ‘n Slide second-row seats.

Every surface and touchpoint features superi-or craftsmanship, comfort and style with premium soft-touch materials and a rich, flowing instrument panel. Steering wheel-mounted cruise and audio controls, illuminated cup holders, and pinpoint LED lights, as well as available heated front seats and

steering wheel give the cabin a sophisticated feel.

The intuitive and cus-tomizable Uconnect mul-timedia centre includes a touchscreen display with either a 4.3-inch or largest-in-class 8.4-inch configu-ration. Easy-to-navigate icons let you control the radio and personal devices such as an iPod or smart-phone, as well as available features like SiriusXM sat-ellite radio, navigation and hands-free communica-tion. Bring along your own tunes via remote SD card slot, remote USB port with mobile device control, or Bluetooth streaming audio. The USB port also acts as a charger for your com-patible devices. Comfort controls can be accessed through either the touch-screen or the centre stack.

Engine choicesWith 283 horsepower,

260 lb.-ft. of torque and some of the most advanced automotive technology, the available award-winning 3.6 litre Pentastar V6 engine with Variable Valve Timing serves up an excep-tional blend of high torque, impressive fuel economy (as good as 9.4 litres per 100 km highway), and low emissions.

The 2.4 litre engine features a strong balance of fuel economy (as good as 9.1 litres per 100 km highway), and power (171 horsepower).

Inside, you’ll find the Uconnenct 8.4 multimedia centre with an 8.4-inch touchscreen and

SiriusXM satellite radio for a more teched-out feel.

Safety and securityThe 2015 Dodge Jour-

ney offers over 50 safety, security and technology features to help ensure you are well protected.

Electronic Stability Control helps the driver maintain vehicle direction-al stability and limits over-steer or understeer. ESC includes All-Speed Trac-tion Control, Brake Assist, Electronic Roll Mitigation and Trailer Sway Control.

Park-Sense Rear Park Assist detects the presence of objects within 1.9 metres of the vehicle in the backup pathway and provide an audible and visual warn-ing to notify the driver.

Enhanced Accident Response makes it easier for emergency personnel to see and reach occupants in the event of an accident by turning on interior lighting, flashing hazard lamps and unlocking doors after air bag deployment. It also shuts off the flow of fuel to the engine.

You can see the 2015 Dodge Journey at Camrose Chrysler on Highway 13 east, Camrose. Phone 780-672-2476 and ask for one of the friendly sales profes-sionals.

Collisionstrenddownwardsinceintroductionof TrafficSafety Plan

The 2013 Traf-f ic Collision Statistics show the overall fatal-ity rate continues on a downward trend.

While the numbers f luctuate from year-to-year, traff ic fatalities have declined by 22 per cent since Alber-ta’s f irst Traffic Safety Plan was introduced in 2007. The number of fatalities has dropped from 458 fatalities in 2007 to 358 in 2013.

There were a total of 141,638 collisions and 18,650 injuries on the roads last year – which is an increase of more than 5,000 col-lisions compared to 2012.

In the past year the number of drivers has increased by 80,306 and the number of vehi-cles is up by 128,195. Traffic volumes on our provincial highways have also jumped by 3.42 per cent.

“We recognize the challenges more drivers and vehicles present on our roads as our prov-ince continues to grow,” said Wayne Drysdale, Minister of Transporta-tion, “but these numbers are further proof that all of us – and that means every Albertan – must take personal responsi-bility to ensure that oth-ers get home safely at the end of the day.”

Approximately 86 per cent of Albertans rate their own driv-ing skills as good or excellent but the sta-tistics show almost 87 per cent of collisions were the result of driv-er error.

“We encourage driv-ers to enjoy all Alber-ta has to offer,” said Jonathan Denis, Q.C., Minister of Justice and Solicitor General. “While out and about across the province, we ask all drivers to put safety f irst and be focused behind the wheel.”

Since 2007, the Gov-ernment of Alberta has worked with its traf-f ic safety partners to implement the Traffic Safety Plan.

$79900

By Dan JensenThe Camrose Friends

of STARS will be holding its 20th anniversary Dine and Dance fundraiser at the Camrose Regional Exhibi-tion Saturday, Nov. 1.

“We’re expecting another great turnout for what should be a fun evening,” com-mented Camrose Friends of STARS secretary Bob Grant. “The selection of live and silent auctions is going to be as impressive as ever with vacation packages, dining certificates, spa packages, camping accessories, concert tickets, electronics and gift certificates.”

The 2013 dine and dance brought in than $64,000, bringing the total amount raised for air ambulance equipment, fuel and mainte-nance in its 19 year history to well over $700,000.

“It ranks right up there as one of the more success-ful events we have had,” explained Grant. “It is evi-dent from the total amount we have received that the community sees the value of supporting STARS. People realize that when they or someone they know needs to get to an advanced health care facility fast STARS is called upon to get them there.”

Operating from three bases in Alberta, two in Sas-katchewan and one in Mani-toba, STARS has carried out

more than 26,000 missions since it began in 1985.

In 2013, STARS flew to Camrose 13 times, respond-ing to everything from car-diac arrests, head injuries, trauma and stroke, to infec-tions, breathing problems, agriculture related incidents and car accidents.

STARS patients receive their care from a highly qual-ified medical team.

“The entire emergen-cy medical services, which includes everyone right from the emergency medical tech-nicians and paramedics to nurses and doctors contrib-ute to the circle of survival,” said Grant. “STARS is just one of the critical pieces of the whole circle of survival.”

A transport physician accompanies the patient when required, about 20 per cent of the time. Otherwise, they are always available for consultation through tele-phone or radio link.

Camrose Friends of STARS committee member Danielle Husak owes her life to the care she received from STARS. Husak was on her mountain bike travelling to work when she was struck by a car in September, 2006, resulting in a fractured back, fractured pelvis, knee injury, and multiple abrasions.

“I remember being load-ed into STARS,” said Husak. “The pilots were awesome. You can clearly tell they love

their jobs. They say it is a rewarding career because people come back and say thank you. I owe them every-thing.”

Josh Bhikoo was 31 when he first went into a Drumheller hospital suffer-ing from chest pain and was first diagnosed with pneumo-nia. He went back later that day and when he collapsed, the decision was made to call STARS to transport him to the Foothills Medical Cen-tre in Calgary. Bhikoo later learned that decision prob-ably helped save his life. He was told that had he arrived much later, he may not have survived.

In Calgary, physicians performed an angioplasty and put a stent in his heart. Josh was on life support for the next nine days and awoke on the 10th day. His recovery from that point was fairly seamless as he slowly began increased physical activity.

A cyclist who had clocked over 8,000 kilometres on his bike the year before his unexpected heart condition, Josh was hoping to be back on his bicycle within a year’s time.

Upon arriving back home in Drumheller, Josh soon witnessed the STARS helicopter on another mission and decided to get involved by spearheading sales of the organization’s Red Ring For Life campaign.

Vikings grab college men’s soccer playoff spotBy Murray Green

The Augustana Vikings men’s soccer team pulled out a 2-1 victory over the Grande Prairie Wolves on Oct. 19 to claim the last playoff spot in the north division.

Although it was the first year for Augustana to have a team, the players were pre-pared for the season.

“We all came together last September. You could tell then that we had chemis-try and talented guys on the team. We played Lakeland and tied them 1-1 and that gave us a lot of confidence and a good feel going into the season,” said Mark Wrubleski

of the Vikings. “This year we fared well in preseason tour-naments, so we knew that there was a strong possibility of us making the playoffs.”

Taking an expansion team into the playoffs in a tough league such as the Alberta Colleges Athletic Conference is quite a feat.

“First year teams to make playoffs is unseen. Some teams have had their teams for three or four years and still haven’t made play-offs yet. We were definitely the big underdog going into the season and roll over us because everyone thought of us and a first year team,” said

Wrubleski. “We proved them wrong.”

The Vikings were built as a team from top to bottom.

“We don’t have a lot of superstars, so we have to work hard as a team to find success,” said Wrubleski. “We have guys that put the team first, throw themselves at tackles and do anything to help the team. That has been the ultimate success factor for us.”

Wrubleski spent his minor soccer years in Cam-rose and he was excited to join the college ranks.

“It is the coolest thing,” he said. “I thought when I

was finished U18 that soc-cer was done, or I would play in the men’s league. To play at the college level, let alone your home town team, is amazing. I bring leadership and a positive attitude to the team. I like to bring smiles to everyone on the team, sing songs during warm-up and stuff like that.”

The fourth year student also plays some solid defence for the Vikings. Augustana has stayed competitive with very strong teams because of the work when they don’t have the ball.

“When you play well defensively, it gives you more

of a chance to win,” said Wrubleski. “Going into the playoffs, we want to play our game.”

Wrubleski and three of his teammates are coming back next year for a semester to play another year on the Vikings. That means Augus-tana will only lose one player for next season.

“We want to be even bet-ter next year. By only losing one player, we will have a lot of experience,” said Wrubles-ki. “This year, only two play-ers had college level experi-ence, so everything is new. We will know what to expect next season.”

November 19, 1986 – October 30, 2004

Little did we know that morning God was going to call your name. In life, we loved you dearly, In death, we do the same. It broke our hearts to lose you, But you did not go alone. For part of us went with you, The day God called you home. You left us peaceful memories, Your love is still our guide. And though we cannot see you, You are always by our side. Our family chain is broken And nothing seems the same. But as God calls us one by one, The chain will link again.

By Dan JensenBusiness owners should

look beyond their product and develop a sense of cul-ture if they want to be suc-cessful said Alberta Busi-ness Coach co-founder John Dickson.

“Something that big and medium-sized companies are spending a lot of money on, and small companies almost nothing, is in developing their people and developing their culture,” said Dickson, who has a PhD in manage-ment, at the noon luncheon of the Camrose Chamber of Commerce Oct. 1. “The culture of an organization that says this is why we do things around here and why we arrive 10 minutes early is extremely valuable.”

Dickson said today’s employers need to recognize that their employees cannot be treated in the same way they were 20 or 30 years ago when, if they failed at doing their job, there was always someone to step up and replace them.

“You need to get your employees excited about what you are doing,” he said. “If you don’t have great people who are excited or engaged, how are you gong to implement that really good program? How are you going to hang onto that younger generation that just seems to keep moving along if you don’t have them engaged at some level?”

Dickson explained that just like in a multi-gener-ational family, employees have different tastes and dif-ferent ways of doing things.

“We have to come to agree-ment at home on which tele-vision station we are going to watch, or what music we are

going to listen to, but in the workplace we think it is all going to work out just fine. If there is a problem that occurs in the workplace we have to all sit down and solve it as a team rather than trying to figure out who in the business is to blame.”

Dickson said Apple and Starbucks are two multi-national organizations that have shown what can be done when a business pays attention to the culture it wants to develop.

“Apple wants to change the way we look at the world, change the status quo, and it is doing that by selling computers and technology. Starbucks brands itself as not a coffee company selling coffee but a people company selling coffee.”

Dickson said that what often stands in the way of a businesses making improvements is conflict and communication.

“It is important to

expand your communica-tion bandwith. We had one client (three partners) who were really upset with each other, not because there was any ill will, but because one of them believed that the only way to solve a prob-lem was to get everyone to agree with him. The other two partners didn’t want to disagree with him, so they would always walk away from any conversations. The solution was to make all three of them under-stand that they needed to give each other space and accept the ideas of others as being worthwhile.”

Dickson also told the story about a software company where the people in the front end who were marketing the product were extroverts and the people in the back end were intro-verts.

“The people in the front end were irritating the hell out of the people in the back end, so all the incentive pro-grams the business was doing to be a better place to work were counter productive. As a result of a team building exercise they did with us they were able to cut turnover in the back part from 20 per cent to little over 10 per cent in less than a year.”

Dickson’s suggestion to businesses who want to ini-tiate change is just to start somewhere.

“You don’t have to do anything ambitious you just have to start,” he said. “You can’t solve everything you attack, but if you don’t even try you are not going to be having a chance to solve hardly anything at all.”

Businesses need to developa sense of culture, says speaker

Chamber awards

Cash is king – it’s a common saying in the busi-ness world. But surprising-ly few entrepreneurs take steps to manage their cash flow so they don’t wind up with an empty bank account and nothing to pay the bills.

“One of the main causes of business failure is poor cash flow management,” says Susan Rohac, senior vice president, financing and consulting, at the Business Development Bank of Can-ada (BDC). “Getting control over your cash flow helps you prepare for slow peri-ods, plan your financing and have peace of mind.”

Follow these five steps to get a better handle on your cash flow.

1. Profitability checkFirst, make sure your

business is earning a reason-able profit. Even the greatest cash flow management won’t help if your fundamentals are out of whack.

Build a sustainable busi-

ness with smart cash flow management principles.

Analyze each prod-uct and service separately to see whether it’s pulling its weight. Make sure your products are appropriately priced and work to eliminate inefficiencies. Instead of just chasing sales, chase profit-able sales.

In 2007, Mike Whittak-er’s company Bonté Foods learned the consequences of poor cash flow the hard way after facing large cost overruns on two major proj-ects. The company had to act quickly to restore its cash position. It analyzed its profitability and real-ized it had to raise prices to better reflect costs. Bonté also unloaded lower-margin product lines and launched an efficiency drive while tightening cash flow man-agement. The changes had a huge impact. Sales in Bon-té’s meat division are up 36 per cent since 2009, while gross profit is up almost six per cent.

“We learned to watch our cash very carefully,” Whittaker says. “You need to always be ahead of the curve on cash flow manage-ment.”

2. Do a cash flow projec-tion

Next, prepare a cash flow projection for the com-ing year. This is your early warning system for cash flow hiccups. Use a spread-sheet or accounting software to plug in expected monthly cash inflows and outflows, including anticipated big-ticket purchases.

Use the projection to anticipate slow periods and plan in advance what to do about them.

“Through the year, check your actual cash position regularly – once a week or month – against your projec-tion to see how you’re doing and deal promptly with any divergences,” advises Rohac.

3. Finance big buys instead of draining cash

One of the most com-mon cash flow mistakes is

using cash to buy a major long-term asset, instead of getting financing. Even if you feel flush right now, you may suddenly wind up short of cash if you experience a sudden revenue shortfall or rapid growth.

Use your cash flow pro-jection to plan your financ-ing needs ahead of time, not in the midst of a crisis, when bankers may be wary to lend. Rohac also recom-mends matching the lifespan of a purchase with financing of similar duration.

4. Speed up cash inflowsGetting money into your

business more quickly can save you carrying costs on your line of credit. Some tips: send out invoices more quick-ly, ask customers to pay elec-tronically, and charge inter-est to slow-payers.

5. Raise cash quickly in a crunch

Facing an unexpected cash flow crunch? You can raise cash quickly using various techniques: approach your bank for help; check

your inventory and assets to see what you can sell off, even at a discount; ask suppliers or your landlord for extra time to pay bills; or offer your cus-tomers a big discount to earn some quick sales.

Many businesses ignore cash flow management: sur-vey

BDC’s Susan Rohac points out that manag-ing finances is one of the main challenges for entre-preneurs, coming in second after marketing and sales. The findings of a BDC sur-vey this year confirm her observation:

More than four out of five entrepreneurs (82 per cent) say they’re the ones managing cash flow and financing in the company.

However, many of the entrepreneurs don’t take basic steps to control their finances. Almost half say they don’t make cash flow projections and check them against actual results – a basic procedure of financial management.

GriefworkshopBy Colleen Lindholm,Camrose PrimaryCare Network

We all face loss, even-tually. And often we – along with our friends, co-worker and family mem-bers are not sure what supports are available.

The Camrose Prima-ry Care Network (PCN) is offering another one day Bereavement and Grief workshop on Satur-day, Nov. 15, which will explain the differences between bereavement, grief and mourning.

This workshop is for people who are coping with grief and loss, as well as for people inter-ested in becoming ‘grief helpers’ – co-workers, family members or even physicians and health care professionals sup-porting people going through a loss. Partici-pants will learn: the dif-ference between bereave-ment, grief and mourn-ing; stages of grief; com-mon symptoms of grief; coping with grief; and how to access appropriate community resources.

“No one is exempt from the heartache of losing a loved on…so let’s learn together how we can help each other,” said facilitator and reg-istered nurse with a cer-tificate in grief support, Colette Howery.

“No matter what, we will all face loss of many kinds. Working through the journey together helps us to reconcile our grief and although life is never exactly as it was, there is hope,” said certi-fied grief trainer Donna Lynn Erickson, who also facilitates the workshop.

“PCN physicians and staff are really pleased with the success of the grief and bereave-ment workshops which have been offered for over two years now. They recognize there is an opportunity in the com-munity to continue this program for individuals facing loss in their lives,” said Stacey Strilchuk, Camrose PCN executive director. “We are fortu-nate to have Colette and Donna Lynne to partner with for this workshop, and are so pleased to be able to collaborate with them in a way that is meaningful and rel-evant to people facing bereavement and grief.”

This free workshop, being held at the Cam-rose Recreation Center, Community Room #3, will run from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. and includes lunch. To receive more information, or to regis-ter, contact the Camrose PCN at 780-608-4927.

The Alberta govern-ment is calling on the Unit-ed States to put an end to its discriminatory Country of Origin Labelling (COOL) requirements on beef and pork imports, following a decision by the World Trade Organization (WTO).

“Time and time again the WTO has clearly sup-ported Alberta and Cana-da’s position that the U.S. government is failing to meet its trade obligations because of the excessive

labelling, tracking and segregation requirements placed on Canadian beef and pork imports,” said Pre-mier Jim Prentice. “It’s time for the American govern-ment to do what is right and put an end to this blatantly discriminatory trade bar-rier.”

“Alberta stands united with our cattle and hog industries in our opposition to COOL, which is imposing more than a billion dollars annually in unnecessary

costs and harms business-es, workers and farmers on both sides of the border,” said Verlyn Olson, Minis-ter, Agriculture and Rural Development. “We fully sup-port the Canadian govern-ment’s ongoing actions to bring an end to COOL and that includes implementing retaliatory trade measures on U.S. products if neces-sary.”

COOL requires that meat derived from animals born, reared or slaughtered

outside the U.S. must be labelled to indicate the coun-try or countries involved.

In November 2011, the WTO ruled that COOL is a violation of trade rules. The WTO decision was upheld in June 2012, following a U.S. appeal.

On October 20, 2014, a WTO compliance panel released its report that revised COOL measures continue to be inconsistent with the U.S. government’s trade obligations.

Mail theftSometime between 4 p.m. on Oct. 12 and 1 p.m.

on Oct. 13, numerous individual mailboxes at McNary Estates were broken into. The suspect(s) left some items at the scene that are currently being examined for any evidence that may lead to the identity of the suspect(s). Theft from rural mailboxes is a serious crime that has unfortunately affected many residents of Camrose County. Mail is being stolen with the inten-tion of gathering individuals' personal information. Once in possession of enough personal information the suspects will try and assume the identities of the vic-tims and commit a wide range of fraud related activi-ties. Camrose RCMP would like to remind everyone to assess the durability of the lock they are using. The best lock to prevent theft of your mail is a guarded or shrouded shackle padlock where the guard or shackle is made of boron or stainless steel. Also, frequent checks of your mail will help minimize the amount of mail obtained if you happen to be victimized by this crime.

To date, the investigation has not revealed the identity of the persons responsible for this crime and police are asking your assistance through Crime Stop-pers. If you have any information on this crime or any other crime, please call the Camrose Police Service at 780-672-4444.

By Dan JensenWhat is the best way to

protect your children from possible abduction?

The Victims of Violence Canadian Centre for Miss-ing Children goes a long way towards answering that question in Child Identifi-cation Kits that have been sponsored by the Camrose Women and are being hand-ed out by the Camrose Police Service.

“The kits are avail-able at the Camrose Police Service building and we will be distribut-ing them until they are gone,” explained Cam-rose Police Service crime prevention officer Const. Matthew Wilton.

The kits come with a pamphlet in which parents can record information about their children, including the school they attend, their heights, weights, and blood types, as well as identify-ing characteristics like fin-gerprints, all of which can

be shared with police in the event they go missing.

“They’re not kept by the police, nor do the police require a copy of the finger-prints,” said Const. Wilton,” adding there is a supplied ink pad. “I think that used to be the case under the old sys-tem but a lot of people didn’t feel comfortable with that, which I completely under-stand.”

The kits also include a pull-out section with infor-mation for parents on com-mon lures that are used by child abductors, whether they be job offers, requests for assistance, posing as an authority figure, games and fun, or modelling photo and beauty contests.

“Parents can read up on the different lures and how child abductions happen and then use that information to talk to their children,” said Const. Wilton.

The pull out notes that no matter how many times a child has been warned

against talking to strang-ers, they will in their normal day-to-day activities regu-larly talk to strangers, and that many abductors will use some form of attention to gain the child’s confidence. It also notes that rather than teach-ing their children to simply stay away from strangers, it is more appropriate that parents teach their children proper ways to respond in certain situations.

“They don’t do the stay away from strangers mes-sage because studies have shown that molesters are able to work around that,” said Const. Wilton. “These criminals find a way to seem friendly, to seem like they are not a stranger. They might even come up to the child and pretend that they know the child’s parents.”

In some cases, the abduc-tion is made by people with whom the child is familiar.

“You have to teach the children to be vigilant, whether they know the

person or not,” said Const. Wilton. “If somebody, even a family member is pay-ing particular attention to them, if they want to get them away from everybody else, that is when you need to be worried. They (abduc-tors) may be impersonating a police officer or someone else who is in an occupation that the child trusts. Anyone just trying to get the child away is who you need to be careful with.”

The pull out states that children should be taught that adults do not normally ask children for assistance – they ask other adults.

“If they are asked, chil-dren will normally be eager to assist an adult carrying some groceries to the car or into a home. They will also be eager to help the teacher with a school project and rightfully so, but there is a difference between the class working on a school project or one child being singled out to assist. The intent of the

lure is to get the child away from his or her friends or from a public place where the assault can take place. No matter who does the asking, even if it is dad’s friend “Uncle Bill” or the school principal, the key is to remember that they should be cautious of situations in which the adult has arranged to be alone with them.”

The Camrose Women of the Moose (WOTM) recog-nize that the kits are invalu-able and a wonderful tool to teach and aid parents on how to approach the subject of abduction with their chil-dren.

“Knowledge and educa-tion are power,” said WOTM representative Brittany Faulkner in a letter to Const. Wilton, “and it is our mission to see to it that children are given this knowledge and education so they stand a fighting chance should they find themselves in a danger-ous situation in which they need to respond.”

What would you do if your child went missing?

Yard PersonPart-time

(MS) - Applying and interviewing for employ-ment are not actions to take lightly. There may be many people applying for the same position you’re seek-ing, which means it is even more important to put your best foot forward in the job-seeking process.

There are certain pitfalls job seekers make repeatedly that can ruin their chances for landing the position they desire. Here are those com-mon mistakes:

1. Beginning a job search before you know what it is you really want to do. You may be so eager to find a job, that you apply for any and all positions. While this may be a quick fix, you prob-ably will land back in the job market relatively quickly once you find the job is just not the right fit.

2. Having a bad atti-tude can sabotage your efforts. Don’t allow poor expe-riences from your prior job to infiltrate this current job-seeking process. The trouble is, you may not realize just how negative a vibe you’re giving off, but others could zero in on it immediately.

3. Failing to act. Many people think the dream job will land in their laps. If you continue to wait for some-thing to come along it’s likely nothing will happen. You have to make the effort to see results. The same can be said if you think that someone else will get you a job. Even if you’re using a recruiting service or net-working through others, it is ultimately up to you to secure the job.

4. Aiming too high or too low in your job search. You have to accurately gauge where you land in the “mar-ketability zone.” Many appli-cants fail to apply for jobs that pay less or accept posi-tions that are beneath them simply because they do not know where they rank in the job market. Ask others where they think you’re com-petitive, such as college pro-fessors, experts in the field, and especially those in jobs similar to the ones you want.

5. Desperation. The idea is to have many options occurring simultaneously so that you don’t feel like you have your entire future rid-ing on one interview. Des-peration may be as notice-able as negativity, so you don’t want others to ever see you sweat. Similarly, its important to take rejec-tion well; it’s not a personal attack. If you have other options open, it shouldn’t matter that much anyway.

After you’ve landed your job, always keep in touch with your network-ing contacts, keeping them apprised of your success and news. These people will remain important con-tacts for the next time you find yourself looking for a job.

By Dan JensenHow do we produce and

consume food in a way that cares for the soil, water and air? How do we advance beyond hydrocarbon ener-gy by being efficient with remaining energy stores and transitioning smoothly to alternative energies? How do we support our economy with our shopping habits? How do we nurture our human systems by creating vibrant, mixed use, healthy com-munities? Those are some of the questions that will be addressed at the University of Alberta, Augustana Campus Nov. 7 and 8 when Spirit of the Land/Caring for Creation present a conference entitled Respecting the Land: Tran-sitioning to a New Economy.

“The focus will be on practical and local examples of how we respect the land by living within the limits and gifts of the natural and human systems,” said confer-ence coordinator Leslie Lind-balle. “A central feature will be round table discussions on sustainable food production, energy efficiency, local busi-ness and community develop-ment.”

Conference plenary speakers James Magnus-Johnston, Mike Unrau and Duane Guina will give a big-ger picture look at some of the segments of the economy and hopefully provide some inspi-ration on the different steps that can be taken to bring about realistic change.

Magnus-Johnston, who will lead a session entitled Community Led Transitions, is the Canadian director of the Centre for the Advance-ment of the Steady State Economy, an organization that promotes the transition

to a dynamic economy with-out growth. He is also an instructor of political studies and economics with Cana-dian Mennonite University, the co-chair of Transition Winnipeg, and the executive director of RISE Urban Incu-bator, a social enterprise that promotes, tests and main-streams innovations for resil-ience.

Unrau, whose topic is Respect the New Economy: Circulating New Ideas About Money, works presently with Calgary Dollars, a comple-mentary currency system working to shift the new economy through relocaliza-tion and financial stability. He has been invited to pres-ent in Den Hague, Nether-lands, on developing govern-ment support for a comple-mentary currency, as well as in Banff on the Quest for Meaningful Work on Align-ing Purpose and Passion for the New Economy.

Guina, whose presenta-tion is entitled Prophet by the Land, is director of Farmland Legacies, a farm land trust in Saskatchewan, that works with farmers who would not otherwise have the opportu-nity to be on the land. His hope is that, through his work, he can positively con-tribute to the creation of a better food system, and there-fore, a better world.

“Quite often, when we talk about changing the economy in light of all the other threats, there is the notion that we have to cre-ate something new and flick a switch to get there,” said Lindballe. “Our plenary speakers, who are involved in large scale projects them-selves, will explain that there is an extensive network of

individuals that are already participating in a new econo-my, and will give a picture of what can happen when you dream big.”

The conference will also feature a number of Cam-rose and area speakers who will address such subjects as alternative energy, healthy and liveable communities and local business.

Lindballe hopes that everyone who attends the conference and is part of the discussions will be able to see the role that they can play in a new economy, whether it is through research, decid-ing about the kind of energy they bring into their home, or simply supporting farmers’ markets and downtown busi-nesses.

“We would like to show them something new and another place where they can direct their energies,” she said. “Help them see where they fit into the over-all web.”

Respecting the Land: Transition to a New Econ-omy is the fourth Spirit of the Land/ Caring for Cre-ation conference since 2010. The previous two conferences were entitled: Responsibility for the Land: Conversations about Fracking in Alberta; Spirit of the Land: toward building a community land ethic; and Caring for All Cre-ation.

“We have had good turn-outs, with 150 or so people showing up to each one,” said Lindballe. “The number of people attending is exactly the number we have needed to be there.”

Government takingaction to relieve

pressure onemergency rooms andto boost seniors’ carespaces across AlbertaIn Alberta, we have a

growing population and an increasing demand for health care services, including acute and emergency care, as well as continuing and long-term care. Albertans want to know that they will have timely access to acute care services and that our seniors are tak-en care of. These issues prob-ably generate more calls to the constituency office than any other.

This month, we announced the launch of the Continuing Care Capac-ity Plan, which will help to address issues of access. In the first phase of the 2014 Continuing Care Capacity Plan, Alberta Health Servic-es will open 464 continuing

care spaces, which are cur-rently unfunded or unstaffed, over the next 12 months through the reallocation of existing resources. In the sec-ond phase, government will look to assist the remaining patients waiting in acute care through $60 million in targeted Affordable Support-ive Living Initiative (ASLI) funds.

Further actions include the dedication of 20 per cent of newly freed up acute care spaces for exclusive emergen-cy department use, a home care capacity review, the exploration alternative health care delivery models in con-tinuing care settings, and further ASLI investments by the Minister of Seniors.

We also announced that a total of 1,500 continuing care spaces will be constructed in both rural and urban com-munities to ensure Alberta seniors have accommodation options that fit their needs.

Supportive living units will be funded under ASLI and created in collaboration between government and community partners. Grants are available to municipali-ties, not-for-profit organiza-tions, Metis settlements, housing management bod-ies, local housing authorities, community groups and pri-vate sector organizations. Pri-ority will be given to projects that are ready to start devel-opment within six months.

Our government is tak-ing steps to ensure all Alber-tans have timely access to quality health care, when and where it is needed, and that our seniors have a place to call home in the communities they helped build, now and well into the future.

Leer picks AlaskascholarshipBy Murray Green

Ryker Leer has accepted a scholarship to attend the University of Alaska Fair-banks.

Alaska coach Dallas Fer-guson will continue where Kodiaks coach Boris Rybal-ka leaves off.

“We are very happy for Ryker and he has worked hard to get to this point in his life and hockey career. I can remember when he was young and coming out to our hockey schools and now he has accomplished this. This is only the beginning of his career at the next level. His leadership and work ethic will carry him a long way,” said coach Rybalka.

Leer is the Kodiaks’ leading point man this sea-son with four goals and 11 assists for 15 points in just 14 games.

Last season he collected 14 goals and 16 assists for 30 points in 57 games. He added an assist in one game during the 2012-13 campaign.

The 18-year-old played his minor hockey in Red Deer.

By Murray GreenCamrose County fire

services coordinator David Zayonce developed levels of service for municipal fire departments, estab-lished basic funding for provision of services, and re-wrote the fire services bylaw to bring all changes into compliance.

His work was wel-comed by council, except for bylaw 1347, which pro-hibits the discharge of fire-works without a permit.

The Alberta Fire Chiefs Association has lob-bied the province for many years to ban pyrotechnic devices, which Zayonce feels are extremely dan-gerous and can cause explosions, fires, injury or death.

“The province was in the process of banning low level fireworks except in municipalities willing to regulate purchase and discharge through bylaw, unfortunately politi-cal changes within the province has slowed this process,” said Zayonce. “Fireworks are not only a threat to public safety,

they have the destructive force to create completely unnecessary emergency situations. One situation will be too many especially if a fire or explosion was to threaten lives and prop-erty caused by low level fireworks.”

Over the past year and a half, Camrose County Peace Officers have investigated sever-al complaints regarding fireworks discharging. These complaints require investigation, which incurs costs to the County that are not recoverable, even if an offence ticket is issued.

Additional costs are incurred as the regional fire services coordina-tor must be involved in the investigation pro-cess due to his authority under the Safety Codes Act. (Enabling legisla-tion for the Alberta Fire Code).

“Fire chiefs within the county do not feel com-fortable issuing fireworks permits due to potential liabilities to them and the dangers involved with

discharging a pyrotech-nic device,” said Zayonce. “Their desire is to not issue permits and they have been directed to me for that service. Ensur-ing the safety of residents is our prime concern. It is adamantly felt that, no matter the fireworks device, these products are truly dangerous no matter who discharges them.”

The total ban on fire-works was met with some opposition at the regular council meeting on Oct. 14.

“I know several resi-dents that like to dis-charge fireworks at family functions and I don’t have a problem with that,” said councillor Ken Kruse, who then asked for numbers on how many people are injured with the county by fireworks.

No current data was available to council.

“We can’t control everyone’s lives,” said Kruse. “Maybe we should ban lawn mowers because they are dangerous. I think we should allow

some fireworks, that’s my opinion.”

Councillor Doug Lyseng said communities like to discharge fireworks at special occasions like birthdays and that he doesn’t think it is a huge problem.

Actual fireworks are not sold within the county. However, they can be pur-chased elsewhere by those 18 and over and brought into the area.

“I certainly don’t want to ban fireworks because some people enjoy it. I can see the city banning it but we are rural where our neighbours are littler fur-ther away,” added council-lor Trevor Miller. “The only thing is we don’t want those under 18 setting these off. I don’t want to change the bylaw. People enjoy fire-works and we addressed the noise factor by letting those around know that someone has a permit.”

Councillors agreed to have administration take another look at the bylaw and bring it back at a future meeting for consid-eration.

County not opposed to use of fireworks

CFW Finalists make their new Bashaw school a little more greenWhat happens when a Caring for our Watersheds competition

collides with passionate students and a new school building? Great things! The new Bashaw School, currently under construction, will be receiving a touch of green, thanks to the efforts of Caring for our Watersheds finalists Tyler Elder, Quinn Kisling, and Kaylin Dennis.

Tyler Elder, who received third place in the 2014 final competition, brought forward a proposal to xeriscape the new school grounds. Xeriscaping is a form of landscaping which seeks to reduce water consumption through the planting of native species. The judges were impressed with this young man’s forward-thinking perspective and saw the potential that his idea held. But Tyler wasn’t the only student thinking about improving his school.

Quinn Kisling and Kaylin Dennis had proposed the installation of low-flow toilets in the Bashaw School’s washrooms

at the final competition in 2013. Low-flow toilets are an easy way to reduce water consumption, and make a lot of sense for a public building that receives a lot of use. These girls will soon see their idea become a reality, as the building’s budget has set low-flow toilets on the agenda.

Other students are thinking about greening their school in a different way. Brogan Middleton, another 2014 Caring for our Watersheds

finalist, brought forward the importance of raising student awareness of watershed health through an ecologically-focused education program.

And just when you thought it wouldn’t get any better, Bashaw School also had the good fortune of winning a water bottle fill-up station at the Caring for our Watersheds competition this year! With all of these changes, the students can enjoy their new building, be better informed, and use less water doing it!

IN ACTION:Riparian Restoration

The Golden Prairie 4-H club out of Forestburg has made a positive impact in the Battle River area

Maven Boddy, a member of the club, came to Caring for our Watersheds in 2013 with a proposal to improve riparian health. Her proposal blew the judges away and won first place in the final competition. The plan? Plant hundreds of trees along the riverbank, educate the community, and implement a long-

term health assessment strategy for the project site. That seems like a lot, but it’s nothing for a group of passionate 4H-ers with help from Battle River Watershed Alliance and CFW program sponsor Agrium!

Prior to tree planting, the club planned an educational canoe ride along the area of the river that would be receiving the seedlings, with help from the Battle

River Watershed Alliance. During the ride participants were taught about riparian areas and factors contributing to their declining health.

Then came the field day, where approximately 30 volunteers from the 4-H club gathered to plant over 200 native tree and shrub seedlings. These species grow well in the Alberta climate and also improve the strength of the riverbank and provide wildlife habitat for years to come. Now that the trees are planted, the project site will be monitored to determine how the health of the area is improving. Maven invited local experts to carry out riparian health assessments and bird surveys, and a second round of assessments is planned for a few years down the road.
