Artwalk, a favourite summer pastime in Camrose, for the past eighteen years, just seems to be getting better with time. With this year’s show and sale being two-thirds over, there remains just over one month to take the interesting self-guided tour to eight locations around Camrose. At each stop you will have a chance to view an impressive and wide array of art. Some of the Artwalk 2013 featured artists are well known in the Camrose arts community (people such as Jim Brager, Audrey Pfannmuller and Mary Wilton) and will each have a few of their favourite pieces on display and offered for sale. However, there are also many new, up and coming artists, potters, sculptures and photographers who will be showing off their talent and selling their unique and creative treasures. For more information contact Camrose Arts Society at 780-672-9949.

Good luck trying to get tickets for the 2013 Big Valley Jamboree. "We sold all of our VIP, reserved and three-day general admission tickets by the end of January of this year and all the single-day tickets by the end of April," said Big Valley Jamboree producer Larry Werner. Big Valley Jamboree had its first complete sell-out in its now 21-year history in 2012. "We sold out on the Saturday of the event last year," said Werner. Big Valley Jamboree's total daily fan capacity is 25,000. "I suppose there might be some capacity to go beyond that but it is not something we are considering at the moment," said Werner. "Our primary goal right now is to make sure that we can sell this festival out for the next few years. If we can do that then we will look at whether or not we want to put in a request for an expansion on our licence." Werner is excited about the number of high profile artists who have agreed to perform at this year's Jamboree. "The comments we are getting from fans who have bought tickets is that this is probably one of the best lineups ever. I tend to always say it is in the eye of the beholder because everyone has a different take on who his or her favourite artist is or who or who not may be a headliner, but traditionally, people do know that if you have Tim McGraw here he is a headliner and is going to be closing on one of the nights. The same goes for Luke Bryan, who is this year's entertainer of the year and is an obvious choice for a headliner. And of course Alan Jackson has been in the headlining roles for years. We are very fortunate that we have three major headliners closing Friday, Saturday and Sunday, something that is not the norm. You know we have always had some really good entertainers, but at this level we were quite fortunate. It was sort of like the stars lined up properly for us." Werner believes it is important that the Jamboree have a good mix of entertainers who are able to support the primary artists. He said the Jamboree has a good number of young, up and coming artists that are making an impression on country music fans. Big Valley Jamboree has been nominated for the Canadian Country Music Association's festival or country event of the year. The winner will be announced at a CCMA awards night in Edmonton in early September.

Dr. Ron Lett provides update on work of CNIS By Dan Jensen

instruments which would cost $25,000 in Canada for $100 from India." A burn course teaches skin grafting, while an essential surgical skills course deals with resuscitating infants, sewing intestines, and preparing and draping an operating room. Not all the courses taught by CNIS are directed towards doctors. Safe Surgery Saves Lives teaches perioperative nursing (a nursing specialty that works with patients who are having operative or other invasive procedures). "Clearly if you teach the surgeons the surgical skills and you have bad nursing you will still get bad results," said Dr. Lett.

Rotary Club of Camrose members were briefed by Dr. Ron Lett on the life-saving work of the Canadian Network for International Surgery (CNIS) July 22. CNIS is a non governmental organization which has trained close to 20,000 African practitioners through more than 500 surgical and obstetrical workshops. "We have about 150 Canadian surgeons and obstetricians who go overseas to Africa to teach on our behalf," said Dr. Lett, who is the CNIS president and founder. "Any surgeon or obstetrician that wants to go overseas with us must take an instructor's course before they go so they know what they are going to do," said Dr. Lett.

Safer communities

Active learning

CNIS is currently offering instruction in eight African countries. "It is active learning," said Dr. Lett. "The African medical students, the African non-physician clinicians, tend to get very good lectures and a lot of academic material but they don't have good skills. We limit lectures. We use quiz questions to stimulate them to think and try to accelerate their achievement of expert thinking using algorithms." Skills laboratories give the people who are going to be performing surgeries the chance to practice their skills. "We use a lot of simulation, so in a way it is similar to the aircraft industry," said Dr. Lett. "No pilot gets into

Dr. Ron Lett

an airplane who hasn't practiced. It is too expensive and too dangerous to do so. Surgery is the same thing. People should not be going into the operating room until they have perfected something on a simulator." Teaching obstetrics skills such as Caesarian section procedures is critical to reducing maternal mortality, as one in thirteen African women die a maternal death. According to the CNIS website, most surgical and obstetrical procedures in Africa are performed by non specialists. "We have a model where they can do absolutely every part of a Caesarian section on a model," said Dr. Lett. Quality of life

CNIS has seen many

instances where the instruction that is provided has resulted in improvements to quality of life. "We have an osteomylitis course, which is kind of specialized, but bone infection really causes a reduced quality of life," said Dr. Lett. "If you can treat someone with a chronic bone infection and cure them they can go from being a beggar on the street or an outcast in their village to someone that can contribute to society. The surgeon from Vancouver Island teaches people how to remove dead bone using real instruments. The models are simulators but the instruments are real because they need to know how to use them properly. We buy

The CNIS safer communities initiative uses education as a tool to reduce injury, as well as teaches school children a way of resolving conflict in a non violent manner. Current statistics show that thirteen per cent of deaths in Africa result from interpersonal violence, traffic and other injuries, and that the number of African children who die from traffic accidents is five times higher than in Europe. "We give lectures and teach health professionals about the problem of injury," said Dr. Lett. "Ten per cent of mortality in the world is due to injury, so injury is a pandemic. There are 512 million people per year who die of injury. There is no way we can have enough surgical care to deal with that issue so we are also interested in preventing it."

CNIS sent containers of new surgical books to Ethiopia (2006), Tanzania (2008) and Uganda (2010), and is translating course materials into French, Portuguese, Swahili and Arabic to facilitate greater knowledge exchange. Through interactive websites such as the Primary Surgery Wiki and the African Injury Database, CNIS provides and collects surgical, obstetrical and injury information in collaboration with its African partners. Partnerships

CNIS has formal partnerships with ten Canadian university departments of surgery, as well as the Canadian Association of General Surgeons and the Society of Obstetricians and Gynecologists of Canada. CNIS offers public engagement courses in Canada, including The Place of Surgery in International Development, which addresses the issue of international development for health professionals. Dr. Lett, son of Audrey and the late Glen Lett, attended Camrose Composite High School and Camrose Lutheran College before moving on to the University of Alberta for undergraduate medical training and post-surgical training. In 1996 he co-founded the Injury Control Centre (Uganda), the first lead-agency for injury control in subSaharan Africa, and the Injury Prevention Initiative for Africa, a 10-country network. Dr. Lett was inducted to the Camrose Composite High School Wall of Fame in 2004.

Reading University concludes for another summer By Dan Jensen

University of Alberta Augustana Campus vice dean Dr. Ric Johnson presented certificates of achievement to forty-one students at the commencement of the fifth Reading University program in Camrose July 26. Dr. Johnson told the students everyone has to work to improve their reading. "Reading is incredibly rewarding but it is also a lot of work. One university says on their website that students need to recognize that reading may be the most demanding work they do. Even university students have to work hard at their reading skills. Even though I am lucky to be a good reader I worked hard at getting better at it. We had a special program at our school that helped everybody learn how to read better and I spent a lot of time on that." Dr. Johnson said reading is becoming more important today than it has ever been. "Most of what we get from the internet for example is written words. Lots of

people use texting more than talking on their cell phones. If I want to know what my friends are up to I read it on facebook. If I want to learn how to make chocolate zucchini cake I read a cookbook. If I want to learn the tricks

to win at my favourite video game I read the manual or somebody's blog." Dr. Johnson thanked the students for bringing a special kind of life and liveliness to the Augustana campus during the month of July.

You won't want to miss the Camrose Big Valley Parade By Dan Jensen

You won't want to miss a minute of this Thursday morning's Camrose Chamber of Commerce BVJ Kickin' Country Parade. "It's going to have a lot of variety," said Camrose Chamber of Commerce parade committee chair Jason Heise. "We have 90 entries as of today (July 24) and more are coming in every day." The Camrose parade had 107 entries in 2012, making it the third largest in the province, behind the ones in Calgary and Edmonton. "It's going to be pretty tough to catch up to the K-Days and Calgary Stampede Parade but 107 entries is not bad," said Heise. Official marshal for the Camrose Chamber of Commerce BVJ Kickin' Country parade is County reeve Don Gregorwich, who will be riding a Wild West Willie, a 2,800 Brahma cross steer. Gregorwich was one of 14 community-minded individuals who raised an impressive amount of mon-

ey for the Family Violence Action Society in a venture called Take No Bull. Parade band entries will include the Rocky Mountain House Penhold National Cadet Band, and Cariwest Festival, a Caribbean dance group. The Shriners will be making a repeat appearance with their miniature vehicles. "It just wouldn't be a parade without the Shriners," said Heise. The parade will have 15 mascots, up from nine last year. Other highlights will include representatives from the Tour of Alberta, the Mirror Lake Express and members of AboutTime Productions, and the world's biggest bike. Camrose Chamber of Commerce made a special effort this year to increase the number of celebrities participating in the parade. "We sent a letter to the Queen asking if she would participate but we think that with the birth of the

new prince she is going to be tied up," said Heise. Camrose businesses are being encouraged to decorate with a western theme. The parade starts at The Brick parking lot at 11 and travels south on main street until it reaches the United Church, where it will take a left hand turn. It will then proceed north again on 48 Street, eventually ending at 51 Avenue. Pre-parade entertainment will be provided by members of the Camrose Spirals rope skipping club. A special viewing area will be set up at the United Church for seniors and those with disabilities. Shut-ins and lodge residents will be able to watch the proceedings live by tuning into Channel 10. Jackie Rae Greening and Pete Hicks will be providing parade commentary. Information on submitting a late entry may be obtained by contacting the Camrose Chamber of Commerce office at 780672-4217.

Kim Luckhardt, Owner/Manager R & K Services

…a special summer feature In Camrose and area a significant number of women hold positions of power and prestige. Many others own their own small businesses or are key players in their respective companies. The Camrose Booster is profiling some of the best, the brightest and the most prominent women who work, employ and lead in the community of which we are all so proud. Watch for profiles in summer issues of the home team paper! If you would like to be a part of our next women in business issue, please call The Booster, 780.672.3142 and ask for Mike, Jeff, Sue or Ron.

Kim’s professional career with R&K Services began some 13 years ago when she entered into a business partnership with her dad, Ron. He did the refrigeration work while Kim managed the accounts, took appointments, coordinated the jobs and ordered parts. It wasn’t long until they purchased a shop and office on the north side of Camrose. Business was good. They expanded, grew, buying more equipment and hiring technicians. Customers from across central Alberta call R & K for refrigeration, air conditioning and heating services, and Kim has been there from the beginning, enjoying her work with customers, booking appointments, dispatching jobs, ordering parts and managing the books. She’s an expert at organization, which will really be put to the test in the near future: Kim is expecting her first baby, so she will soon have a little one adding to her busy life. 5419-47 Street, Camrose Phone 780.608.1440

Cindy Elliott,

Co-owner Elliott's Auto Care

Cindy, with husband and partner Eric, first started in the business some 27 years ago when they operated the Gulf (then Petro Canada) service station at the corner of 48 Avenue and 50 Street. That’s a long time ago, but some of the customers they served in their first location are still customers in their shop on 48 Avenue, which they’ve been running the past 11 years. By any measure, the venture has been a success. They started with one full-time mechanic and now have three, effectively tripling their business in those 11 years. This growth can be attributed in no small part to the way Cindy works with customers, treating them as she would want to be treated, with respect. Communication is key, says Cindy. Talking with customers, explaining the work needed and finding solutions are all part of the process, a process which Cindy truly enjoys. Customers appreciate the personal service, the way Cindy makes them feel welcome, the small gestures of friendliness and a philosophy that often separate the small independent shop from the bigger garages where customers are equated to numbers. The next time you’re in need of some work to your vehicle, remember Elliott’s Auto Care and experience the personal touch you can’t find anywhere else.

Diane Calahoo, Owner

Ideal Weight Loss Center

It’s interesting how one stage of our life can just naturally lead into the next. Diane Calahoo had been doing reflexology for over 11 years and was very aware of how her clients’ state of health affected their quality of life. When the opportunity to start Camrose Ideal Weight Loss Center came along, she and husband Chris didn’t hesitate. They combined both businesses under one roof on Main Street and Diane couldn’t be happier. “I love what I do,” she simply states. “Seeing our clients making great health changes in their lives, reaching their goals and maintaining their new level of happiness is just wonderful.” Camrose Ideal Weight Loss Center is based on the principle of the Ideal Protein weight loss method which is a muscle sparing fat-targeting four-step protocol, helping clients reach their goal weight. Clients get weekly support sessions from their accredited Ideal Protein health care professional, and receive weight and measurement progress analysis as well as ongoing nutritional education. Diane also firmly believes in the age-old adage of practicing what you preach. Using the principles and supplements of her Weight Loss Center, she lost 47 lbs. and continues to maintain her ideal weight. “Our products have wonderful flavours and textures, and our clients (including myself) think they taste great!”

Susan Kelndorfer Niehaus, Owner, Aya Styles Boutique

Every small business has its own individual character. That is clearly evident when you walk into Aya Styles Boutique, which is located on the north end of quaint main street Camrose. Nestled beside Candler Art Gallery, it has evolved into a boutique that owner, Susan Kelndorfer Niehaus, says combines uniqueness and a wearable freedom that lets a woman be who she wants to be. Whether it be a piece of clothing, a piece of jewelry, a handbag or scarf, Susan takes pride in searching for lines that assure you a level of original creativity

at Aya. Approached in 2012 by Pandora, Susan seized the opportunity to partner her boutique with such a dynamic company. Susan knew that Pandora, with its constant evolving design ingenuity, would enhance the vision she had for Aya. She wasn’t disappointed. At Aya, Susan and her staff take special care to be informed about the lines that make up the boutique and are more than willing to spend the extra time to help customers find exactly what they need. Susan says she is proud to be a part of the growing boutique owners on Camrose’s main street, where friendliness and exceptional individuality abound.

Women's history coming to life

City to be proactive with bylaw enforcement By Dan Jensen

The City of Camrose is going to be taking a more proactive approach to ensure compliance with its wastewater bylaw. Assistant municipal engineer of infrastructure and planning Jeremy Enarson told City council June 15 that City inspectors with significant background in plumbing and wastewater systems will be going to owners of commercial, institutional and industrial businesses to discuss the importance of maintaining optimum system efficiency and protecting the environment from contaminants that are not easily or otherwise removed by municipal treatment systems. "Administration anticipates that the first few visits will be less formal and more informational in nature, as the inspectors will be working to establish rapport with business owners, as well as to inspect the sites in detail for what might be the first time since the site was originally developed or last renovated," said Enarson. "As the various sites are visited, wastewater bylaw inspectors would return to these sites periodically or on an as-needed basis to address any specific issues of (bylaw) non-compliance which may have been identified." Most municipalities with wastewater systems within Canada will regulate the volumes and/or types of wastewater being

discharged into its sanitary sewer or storm sewer systems through a wastewater or sewage bylaw. The City of Camrose wastewater bylaw 2636/10 was adopted by City council August 16, 2010, following a multi-year review of wastewater bylaws from a variety of municipalities across Canada. Generally, the bylaw grants authority to an inspector to inspect a site and monitor sanitary or storm wastewater leaving a City-owned or private premise, and to ensure that all wastewater is in compliance with the bylaw. Should contraventions exist with a certain property or business, the inspectors are further empowered to write appropriate orders or issue fines as they see necessary. "Enforcement and fining is generally only considered as a last resort," said Enarson. "It is the City's ongoing intent to work cooperatively with affected businesses and property owners to help bring these properties or businesses into compliance." The inspection program will target restaurants and food related businesses, locations with cafeterias (hospitals, seniors' residences, lodges and schools), gas fueling locations, medical clinics, hospitals, photography labs, machine and welding shops, automotive servicing shops, dry cleaners and laundromats, highway construction/maintenance yards, septic hauling companies and heavy industries.

Are you interested in women's history? The Camrose Railway Station has a wonderful event planned for Saturday, August 3. At 2 p.m. we will celebrate the contribution and women’s role in prairie settlement featuring local presenters. Learn through story and discussion about the vast impact that women made upon the development of our region. Conversation will follow. This event is a part of a larger, ongoing project which is to capture and record local narrative history. Women’s

history is often unrecorded and forgotten when family members pass away. This is our attempt in preserving as much as we possibly can. The presentations are often delivered by descendants, friends or, in some cases, people who are interested in furthering the project. Local is relative when it comes to pioneers. Even if the immigrant families did not settle in this direct area, the prairie pioneer experience has so many common threads and relates to us all. Circumstances that pioneer families left in their countries of origin contributed to

migration and to contemporary customs and convention. Audience members often become inspired to research and share the stories about the pioneer ladies of their family. We invite members of the community to attend this wonderful afternoon of community and history. Join into the theme by wearing a hat or clothing from a past era. Homemade berry desserts will be featured on the Tea Room menu. The Camrose Heritage Railway Station is located at 4407 47 Avenue.

"We consider it our responsibility to provide programs and services each student requires in order to reach his or her full potential, and this is very important to us. If we can catch them (students) early, get them involved, get them caught up and get them reading at that level the future is very bright." Bosh expressed appreciation to everyone who supports the Reading University program, including the teachers and support staff. "Your dedication to our students is amazing and we greatly appreciate your return year after year to support these young readers. It is amazing how many of our staff come back year after year to work with us. They give up their July and they come here and work with the children. They contribute to our vision of every student every day a success." Started by the Battle River Community Foundation in partnership with the Battle River School Division and the Augustana Campus of the University of Alberta, Reading University is a four-week summer program

intended to increase the literacy skills of children in Grades 1 and 2 who are not yet reading at grade level so that they can succeed in school and beyond. "The foundation identifies the need, determines the best people and organizations to deal with that need, then delivers the financial support," said Battle River Community Foundation board chair Blain Fowler. "The school division takes responsibility for designing the educational program, recruiting and paying the staff, providing transportation and inviting the appropriate children to participate. The Augustana Campus provides classroom space, nutritious meals and snacks for our students and provides us with lunch time supervisors." Reading University receives good support from community-minded individuals through donations or the creation of endowment funds. "Their contributions cover the cost of the meals and field trips, as well as classroom supplies such as backpacks, t-shirts and books that the students can take home," said Fowler.

Kodiaks sign Duret, welcome Colborne By Murray Green

Jason Duret is a Camrose Kodiak. The hockey player skated with the Prince Albert midget triple-A Mintos in Saskatchewan last season. Jason led the League in playoff scoring with 17 points and placed third in the regular season scoring with 67 points, just four points behind the leading scorer. “We are excited to get a player of Jason’s calibre to Camrose. What really excited us was that Jason wanted to be here from the first time we talked. We want players who want to be a Kodiak and

not players who want to look around and see. He has a great work ethic and comes from a good family background. He will be a definite asset to our organization," said Boris Rybalka, coach and general manager of the Kodiaks. Recently signed Toronto Maple Leafs forward Joe Colborne has agreed to attend the Kodiaks Golf tournament in August. You can register for the tournament and receive a chance to play a round of golf with Joe at the tournament. "We have some special fun

planned for the weekend. Joe will be signing autographs and talking with fans,” said Boris. The golf tournament is set for Sunday, Aug. 25. To register call the Kodiaks office at 780-679-2603, or visit website camrosekodiaks. com. On Saturday, Joe will be signing autographs and visit the arena where future Kodiaks will be competing at camp in the annual Black and White game at 7:30 p.m. in the EnCana Arena.

The Camrose Axemen moved up to third place in the North Central Alberta Baseball League with a doubleheader split against the defending champion Westlock Red Lions on July 14. Camrose won 7-2 and lost 10-3 against Westlock, but followed the series with a 3-2 win against the Edmonton Athletics and an 18-3 victory over the Sturgeon Paladins on July 22. Winning three out of the past four games has put the Axemen in good shape to secure a playoff spot. In the victory over Westlock, J.J. Straker led the offence by going three for four and scored three runs. Ryan Borman chipped in with two hits. Pitcher Blair Mulder went the distance for the Axemen on the mound and didn't allow any earned runs on six hits and four walks, while striking out six Westlock batters. The Red Lions scored four runs in the sixth inning to put the game out of reach for Camrose. Brett Harke went two for three at the plate for Camrose. Pitcher Paul Schole was tagged with his first loss. The next home game for Camrose on Harry Andreassen Field in Kin Park is on July 30 beginning at 7:15 p.m. against the Sherwood Park Athletics.

It is funny how history always seems to have a way of repeating itself. Back in 1912 the Camrose Board of Trade (forerunner of the Chamber of Commerce) came up with the idea of promoting Camrose by having town officials ride a train to eastern Canada and back. The train travelled 5,000 miles, stopping at 33 centres. This year, the ones who are doing the promoting are the members of AboutTime Productions. The train that they have chosen to ride is the Mirror Lake Express. "We were asked by the Chamber of Commerce if we would accompany the train to the parades," said AboutTime Productions' Cathie Johnson. "We've already been to the parades in Calgary, Ponoka and Edmonton, and we will be in the Big Valley Jamboree (BVJ) Parade in Camrose." The train and its passengers won second prize in the float category at the parade in Ponoka. "We didn't win anything in Calgary because there were no prizes that were being handed out," said Johnson. "Vulcan won the fan favourite award but there were no awards." The trip to Calgary was a two-day affair, with the 24 members of AboutTime Productions staying overnight at the University of Calgary. "It was a good trip for bonding amongst the kids,"

said Johnson. "We didn't see much of the flood damage but we felt the spirit of people pulling together. When we were waiting in the parade staging area we were next to a float with Mexican dancers, an oldfashioned band with fiddlers and a float with a rock band. The old-fashioned band started playing music and the people from Mexico started to do line dances, so we joined in. There was a really fun and communal feel to it, knowing we were all there to support Calgary." The thing that impressed Johnson the most about the Calgary Stampede Parade was the fact that the AboutTime Productions kids walked the entire parade route while singing the country songs they had spent more than 40 hours rehearsing. "They didn't ride the train. They walked, dance and sang for two and a half hours. I thought that was amazing stamina." AboutTime's repertoire includes a total of six songs, two of which were ones that everyone sang together, and four of which involved solo performances. "The ones who have been chosen to do the solos are the ones who have put in the most work," explained Johnson. "They had to pic the song, prepare it and get it ready to go. There wasn't an adult like me who was hounding them into learning them. They had to show that they had the drive and

dedication. It was a good learning lesson." Johnson has enjoyed seeing how the AboutTime Productions kids have blossomed through their experiences and gained new confidence. "It's fun to watch the kids come alive when they get the reaction from a crowd that keeps changing every couple of minutes. Ponoka was a big wake-up call because it showed them what they were doing was really impressive. They knew what they were doing meant something, especially since they were doing all the songs live." AboutTime Productions' first experience performing in a parade was in Edmonton in 2012, when the Mirror Lake Express won the trophy for best municipal entry. "The Chamber was so impressed with what we were able to do that they asked us to join the train again this year," said Johnson. "We didn't get the chance to go to St. Albert because of the rain but they (Chamber) want us to do the same parades again next year." Johnson feels that, just like the officials 100 years ago, the train and AboutTime productions have been good ambassadors for Camrose. "We keep reminding them that they have to be on their best behaviour because they are representing Camrose and Camrose County to all these different communities."

Hendricks goes from small town Alberta to BVJ saloon Karac Hendricks will be performing at the Molson Canadian Saloon Sunday, August 4. Karac is pronounced "CARE-ak." "I was named after Robert Plant's son. He passed away when he was about five. The (Led) Zeppelin song 'All My Love' is about Karac." Karac was that kid playing mandolin and singing at local shows and functions around Heinsburg and Dewberry, Alberta. "I started singing on stage when I was four, then my Great-Grandpa Chester gave me his old mandolin

and taught me some chords when I was six. My Uncle Rob showed me my first three chords on the guitar when I was about eight, Dad taught me a couple more, and, well, here we are." Karac is a Country artist. "All artists struggle with titles and genres, so it really just comes down to doing what you do and doing it the best you can. I mean, I've always listened to all kinds of music – most people have. I'm just working hard to not get in the way of my influences coming through my own music." Karac is a diverse and

energetic live performer. "I truly love entertaining people by singing and playing guitar, and I love singing and playing guitar on all kinds of music. The shows always start with some traditional and new country, but they tend to end on the modern rock side of things, depending on the crowd. I've been very fortunate to have players with me that love to stretch out in the set lists like I do." Karac also has enjoyed considerable stage time playing guitar and singing with other artists. "Opening for Diamond Rio with Tera Lee, for April

Wine with Route 66, playing at Capital Ex in Edmonton and Nashville North in Calgary with Ronnie Prophet and Glory-Anne, the journeys I've been on with this music thing when I look back are unbelievable." Karac was that kid sitting with his parents at concerts and sitting in the shopping cart listening to a Walkman. "Music has always been the one thing I gravitated to. I had a Fisher Price record player when I was little and loved John 'Dender' (Denver) and 'Skicky Raggs' (Ricky Skaggs). I remember seeing

kd lang at the Edmonton Folk Fest early on and thinking how cool she was. And I'll never forget Dad making a copy of Little Feat's 'Waiting For Columbus' onto a tape and cranking it up in the truck. Now I'm making everyone listen to that album loud!" Karac is looking forward to looking back on his career as a Country music artist. "I just feel very lucky to be able to make music. The people that are coming out to the show genuinely want to hear my take on whatever it is that I'm doing. That's the coolest thing in the world!"

The CAMROSE BOOSTER, July 30, 2013 – Page 14

PEN POINTS by Berdie Fowler

“Mom, let me read to you!” Imagine you are lost and standing alone on a street corner in a country in which you could not speak the language spoken there nor recognize the symbols of their writing. You have no guide but there are dozens of written signs all around you. They are intended to tell you where you are, where to find the services you want, and how to get there, but they are of no help because you cannot read them. This could happen to a Canadian who has travelled to an Asian country or one in the Middle East. Actually, it could, and in fact does happen to Canadians right here at home – both immigrants and Canadian-born adults. Impossible, you say, because everyone in our country goes to school. Be that as it may, statistics tell us that over forty percent of adult Canadians are not able to read at a level that enables them to function fully in community life in our own country. They may have some literacy skills but are still unable to read street signs; menus at a restaurant; instructions on medicine labels, recipes, manuals describing the assembly, installation and use of machines, furniture, toys, computers, whatever. Even today’s sophisticated computers, with much faster than human mind capabilities, have not eliminated the need for reading ability. One cannot use the internet, or communicate via facebook or twitter if unable to read. Lack of literacy skills is one of the major causes of a lifetime of low income. A literacydeficient adult may have promising potential as a tradesperson but is unable to pass a written exam, unable to fill out an application form, or, if employed, be unable to advance to higher levels because of inability to handle the ‘bookwork’. Educators and statisticians have found that the ability to read is an essential foundational pillar to all other academic learning. If a youngster falls behind grade level in reading skills early in his or her school years, he or she will slip farther and farther behind in subsequent years and will often become a school drop-out. If so, he or she is likely to face a future of under-employment or permanent unemployment and even poverty. Knowing this has made my attendance at the annual graduation ceremonies of Reading University a very satisfying and even emotional experience. Reading University is a four-week summer program to help grades one and two students reach their grade level of skill in reading before the beginning of the next school year and also help them develop a life-long love of readng. The program was initiated by the Battle River Community Foundation and implemented in partnership with the Battle River School Division and the Augustana Campus of the University of Alberta. A generous portion of the funding comes from community donors. At the program-culminating exercises, I find it indeed inspiring to hear each teacher’s report on the progress of each student, and fun to see the child graduands eagerly climb the podium steps to receive their completion certificates from a fully-robed University dean (or vice dean). The emotional involvement happens when a parent describes, with the deepest gratitude, her child who would previously listen to a story but never try to read it, change to a youngster who says, “Mom, let me read to you.” Reading University holds the promise to make every day a success for every student and, eventually, adults who are able to participate fully in community life – also, lessen poverty.

Thank you for the wonderful front page coverage of our Take No Bull campaign. I appreciated that you were able to include all the essential information in the front page caption. This is great exposure for us as an organization and has resulted in two large donations already. We appreciate, as always, the generosity of The Booster in making the front page available to the community. Sheralyn Dobos Program Director, Family Violence Action Society, Camrose Is it a Misunderstanding?

This letter is a commentary on Councillor Lindstrand's letter. 1) Mr. Lindstrand comment that this Council paid $3.4 million of debt on the golf course. Mr. Wood brought to the attention of the Administration and Council that the cumulative golf course deficit

was sitting in the "reserves" as a negative amount. This was incorrect accounting as reserves were for the future and not past operating losses. Council covered off the negative book number for the golf course by offsetting a similar amount that was in the general reserves. Council did not pay off any debt on the golf course. They corrected a presentation issue. 2) Councillor Lindstrand is correct that the City has reduced its Debenture Debt each year by $2 million. This Council added debentures of $8 million on CPAC (less any donations) and borrowing for City Hall (to be repaid by future capital grants) of $5 million. We are certainly no less in debt than when this council started. 3) The comment on the City having substantial cash reserves for both operating and capital was correct. Depending on what the City has classed as deferred revenue and what it has classed in restricted surplus (reserves), there will be $9.5 million of these funds (MSI) drawn to pay for City Hall and approximately $8 million drawn for CPAC. Much of the accumulated "reserve" amount will soon be gone. 4) I will concede that recent City Councils tried to keep the tax increases low as the City of Camrose does have one of the higher property tax rates in the Province. This Council has reduced the City resources (reserves, MSI Funding, etc) available for the future and added the operating and debenture payment costs

of CPAC to the ratepayers' costs. It will be future Councils that will need to struggle with reductions in services. The commentary on Camrose having the lowest tax increase is a smokescreen. Using numbers from municipal affairs for 2012 the average tax rate for all cities in Alberta is 6.2781. The rate for Camrose is 7.4506. On a house with an assessed value of $400,000 the average tax is $2,511 while in Camrose we pay $2,980. We pay 18% more than the average. If you have a larger base you need a smaller percentage increase to get to the same dollar increase. The MSI funding from the Province was provided to all municipalities to allow the municipalities to deal with their infrastructure needs. With all these funds for the next three to four years now diverted to fund the debt on the City Hall construction, all other projects will now have to be taxpayer funded by either direct taxation increases or debt which results in future taxation increases. I acknowledge that running for office with the requirements of time and knowledge, to discharge the role of being a City Councillor, is an honorable and difficult task. My comments are my view but are not intended to in any way suggest that the individual Councillors did anything other than what they thought was right with the information that they had.

Take No Bull campaign raises funds for programs By Murray Green

Camrose County Reeve Don Gregorwich and 13 other contestants took the bull by the horns to fight family violence. Although Reeve Gregorwich earned the right to ride Brahma-cross steer Wild West Willie as the parade marshal in the Big Valley Jamboree Parade on Aug. 1, the real winners were the Family Violence Action Society (FVAS) and the people who use the programs. All 14 people vying for the privilege to ride Willie raised $5,524 for the various adult and children's programs FVAS offers. FVAS program director Sheralyn Dobos and singer/ songwriter Ken Grambo selected Reeve Gregorwich to be the parade marshal in a public draw on July 26. However, Peter Holiday, Holly Weiler, Lynne Kennedy, Shelley Moch, Jan Turnbull, Rod MacInnis, Ray McIsaac, Randal Nickel, Peter Krich, Damien Brown, Lee Foreman, Samara Froland and Trent Reinke also played an important role in raising funds and letting their names stand in the contest. "We had no idea when we embarked on this fundraiser what would happen. We wanted people to have fun with it and that was the key," said Sheralyn. "We wanted people to spread the word about the organization

and raise important funds for programs to ensure they can continue." Last year, the FVAS helped 60 adults with violence issues and 17 children overcoming stress that comes from a violent home situation. About 36 adults completed a 14-week group session and 19 more finished an eight-week session. "We provide services to help reduce the violence in their lives. Our numbers are less than the women's shelter, but we help people over a longer period of time. The program is gut-wrenching and is over several months. Our impact is huge," said Sheralyn. "We have waiting times because the sessions are longer." Most of the staff help in addition to their full time jobs. "The support helps children communicate, assists with stress and helps them have a stable life," said Sheralyn. "We have people come back and say they handle stress better. One person told us how his boss has noticed a big difference in the way he interacts with other people now." Between 60 and 80 per cent of the clients at FVAS take the programs because they have been ordered to do so by the court system, or children services. The other 20 to 40 per cent attend as a volunteer because a friend or

Murray Green, Camrose Booster Family Violence Action Society program director Sheralyn Dobos announces that Camrose County Reeve Don Gregorwich will be the parade marshal for the Big Valley Jamboree in Camrose on Aug. 1 after singer Ken Grambo made the draw. The 14 contestants raising funds for FVAS brought in $5,524 for adult and children's programs.

relative has requested them to do so. "Because the programs are offered free of charge for the most part, we tend to have people with low incomes. We don't want to have any barriers," added Sheralyn. Those who attend the

programs are not only from Camrose, but from a big circle from Coronation to Wetaskiwin and Viking to Stettler. "Programs are hard to come by in smaller centres. We find that people are committed to attend, even throughout the winter, from

longer distances because they are committed to making a change," she said. "Often we pattern ourselves from what happens at home. If someone comes from a dysfunctional situation, they feel that is their normal," explained Sheralyn.

2014 Ford Fiesta The most fun-to-drive car of its size

James Larson By Dan Jensen

The 2014 Fiesta at Lamb Ford Sales redefines the small car with a projected fuel economy rating of 5.88 litres per 100 km, an exciting new look and special features and technology that make it the most fun-to-drive car of its size. "Customers want cars that are expressive and fun while offering class-leading technology," says Mark Fields, Ford president of The Americas. "Fiesta delivers all the excitement drivers are looking for in a car we believe will raise the bar even higher for small cars in North America. "Our goal with this Fiesta was to take a car that was already a leader in fuel efficiency, performance, connectivity and personality and make it even better." Performance

The standard 1.6-litre twin independent variable cam timing (Ti-VCT) 1-4 engine is engineered for impressive fuel efficiency. The engine block is designed using high-pressure die-cast aluminum for strength and light weight. Twin independent variable cam timing allows the camshafts to operate both intake and exhaust valves at different times in the combustion cycle, based on speed and load. The available dual dryclutch PowerShift 6-speed automatic delivers perfor-

mance similar to that of a manual transmission, with the shift quality and ease of operation provided by an automatic transmission. Standard Electronic Power Assisted Steering (EPAS) helps deliver manoeuverability and responsive handling. It offers Pull-Drift Compensation to help correct for road irregularities and improve overall steering feel, and Active Nibble Control to help smooth out minor tire vibrations. The system continues to "learn" and adapt to steering conditions, and gradually compensates for changes that can cause the vehicle to pull left or right. To enhance road handling while accelerating through a corner, torque vectoring control adjusts speed between the front wheels to enhance cornering agility and reduce understeer. When you're accelerating through a corner, Torque Vectoring Control applies braking to the front inside wheel, so more of the engine torque goes to the outside wheel that has more grip. The Fiesta ST 1.6-litre turbocharged EcoBoost 1-4 delivers 206 lb.-ft. of torque. Overboost calibration provides added acceleration as needed, extending peak torque through a higher rpm range. Fiesta ST also features three-mode AdvanceTrac ESC (electronic stability con-

trol) to enhance driver enjoyment. Drivers can choose from Standard, Sport and Off. These can be selected according to weather and road conditions, or to simply match the driver's desire for help from additional driving aids. Technology

The Fiesta lets you get a clear picture of what is behind. Put the gear selector in reverse and the rear view camera automatically transmits the image to the touch display screen in the centre stack. The available navigation system combines global positioning system technology with 3-D mapping, and provides voice-guided turnby-turn directions. When the key fob is in your pocket or anywhere on you, you can simply press the button on the door handle to open. Once you're in, press and hold down the brake pedal (or clutch for a manual transmission), press the power button and go. MyKey is an innovative feature that can help others drive your car more responsibly and safely. Important safety features stay activated, such as the Belt Minder warning chime, until the safety belts are buckled. The audio system sound volume also remains muted. MyKey can be set to place limits on speed (up to 128 km/h) and audio volume (up to 45 per

cent of maximum). Low-fuel warnings are displayed in the message centre, followed by a chime when fuel level reaches an eighth of a tank of fuel. Smart

If you can't live without your music, the exclusive, available Sony-branded audio system is just what the doctor ordered. It delivers crisp sound through eight premium, high-quality speakers made up of four woofers and four tweeters. Laster-cut headlamps, pure-white available lower fog lamps and available sidemirror turn indicators create a glow that surrounds the Fiesta. Available ambient lighting illuminates the interior with colour in both the front and rear footwells. It also lights the cupholders, which makes them easier to locate when you're driving at night. The driver or frontseat passenger can select from one to seven colours: red, blue, purple, orange, aqua, white or yellow-green. The Fiesta Titanium offers available leather trimmed seats and features standard heated front seats with two comfort settings. Heated front seats are included in the Comfort Package on the SE and are standard on the Titanium and ST. With electronic automatic temperature control (standard on the Titanium

and Fiesta ST) you just set the temperature you want and enjoy air conditioned or heated comfort. Design

From its grille, headlamps, available fog lamps and trim to its sleek hood with new character lines, the Fiesta features a new, more muscular look. Adding to its appeal are all the choices Fiesta offers. For starters,, do you want a sedan or hatch? Which colour do you want it in? You have 10 choices. How about an SE exterior body kit or a lower door stripe graphic package? Inside and out, you can make your Fiesta "your" Fiesta. Fiesta comes with seven standard airbags. In fact, Fiesta was the first in its class to offer a driver's knee airbags. This airbag inflates between the driver's knees and the instrument panel to help provide protection in a crash. Extending through both rows of seats are also side-curtain airbags. They feature roll-fold technology, which is designed to inflate between the window glass and passenger's head. This helps keep the curtain against the glass and offers head protection in side impacts for all outboard seating positions. Learn more about the 2014 Ford Fiesta at Lamb Ford Sales, at 3771-48 Avenue, Camrose. Phone 6722411 and ask for one of the friendly sales professionals.

Camrose Kodiaks sign two more midget stars By Murray Green

Matt Zentner and Jody Sick know how to win. The Camrose Kodiaks are hoping their winning attitude will carry over to the junior ranks. The hockey players were part of the national champion Red Deer midget tripleA club. Matt, 6'2", led the Red Deer team between the pipes

last year to help his team win the national title. Jody, 6'4", led the team in scoring during the playoffs this spring. “We are excited to add both of these men to our organization. Matt is a solid goaltender who competes and battles in the net every night. He was a key part of the success of the Optimist Chiefs during their playoff run,"

said Boris Rybalka, coach and general manager of the Kodiaks. "Jody is a big strong forward who has good hands and is hard to move when he gets in front of the net.” Training camp opens on Friday, Aug. 23, and the first home exhibition game is slated for Monday, Aug. 26, at 7 p.m., against the Drumheller Dragons.

More than 350 participants from 53 communities will represent Alberta at the 2013 Canada Summer Games in Sherbrooke, Quebec, August 2 to 17. “Congratulations to all the athletes, coaches and staff whose hard work and dedication have been recognized by their selection to Team Alberta,” said Dr. Richard Starke, Minister of Tourism, Parks and Recreation. “We are extremely proud of all of our participants and look forward with enthusiasm as they represent the best of Alberta at the Games.” With 350 athletes competing in 17 sports, this edition of Team Alberta represents one of the largest and most talented teams Alberta has sent to a Canada Summer Games. In addition, 77 coaches and managers, along with 19 mission staff, will provide support and leadership during the Games. The flag bearer for Team Alberta will be Calgary’s Harrison Scott who is on the tennis team. “This is an exceptional group of athletes whose combination of experience, dedication and energy will push us towards our goal to finish in the top three for medals and points at the Games,” said Cam Berwald, Team Alberta Chef de Mission. “Our athletes have achieved success provincially and nationally and these Games represent the next step in their quest to compete at the international level.” To see the full list of Alberta athletes participating at the Games, to track their results, or for more information, visit www.teamalberta.org. Albertans are also encouraged to send our athletes their well wishes by supporting them on Team Alberta Facebook. Team Alberta’s involvement in the Games is coordinated by the Alberta Sport, Recreation, Parks and Wildlife Foundation. The foundation provides support for participation in sport, recreation and physical activity, athletic excellence and the preservation and recreational use of natural environments in Alberta. Through the foundation, the Alberta government has provided $1.25 million towards team training, the selection of teams and the operations of Team Alberta.

Q.

Why choose tile?

A.

Tile works from contemporary to classic. With so many colors, patterns and sizes to choose from, there are countless ways to make use of tile in your home. A long-time favorite in bathrooms, tile is just as suitable in kitchens for its ability to resist spills. And you can lend other living spaces throughout your home a touch of style, ranging from contemporary to traditional. Whatever your style. No matter what your architectural style, there’s a tile solution to bring your vision to life. And tile isn’t merely a trendy choice, either. It’s been an admired flooring for years and will continue to be a great way to bring lasting beauty and value to your home. Be creative. Tile is modular, which allows you to be creative in how you assemble your floor. You can put large tiles together for an expansive look. Set them at angles to grow small spaces, or use insets for a custom look. While there’s much to consider in creating the desired look, style and long-term performance of your floors, know that you’ll find beautiful flooring that’s made affordable at Wideman Carpet One. Plus, the experts at Wideman Carpet One are always available to assist you personally and answer any questions you may have.

Q.

Could my teenager have a hearing problem?

A:

Teenagers often seem to be in their own world, not paying attention to what’s happening at home or in school. But when teens are truly having trouble hearing you, it’s time to take action. Teens who have been exposed to loud music over a period of time may complain of ringing in the ears (also known as tinnitus) or of a sensation of fullness, as if their ears are plugged. Hearing loss can also be caused by ear infections or trauma, and it’s important to get to the bottom of the problem quickly if you suspect your teen has a hearing problem. For infants, children and teens, even minor hearing loss can make communication difficult, and can have long-lasting consequences. A child’s self-image may be negatively affected by hearing loss, their ability to learn may be compromised, and children with hearing loss may experience difficulty developing social skills. Signs of hearing loss in older adults are often wrongly attributed to other age-related issues such as dementia. Forgetfulness may be a sign that your loved one has simply missed part of a conversation due to a hearing problem. If an older adult communicates well in one-to-one conversations, but has difficulty hearing in a group situation, hearing loss may be to blame. Finally, if a older person who was once engaged and socially active becomes withdrawn, irritable or inattentive, chances are strong that they are suffering from hearing loss and should be seen by a hearing specialist.

Q.

Q. How will Facebook make me money?

A:

Facebook, specifically, is a social site. People don’t want to just read about your specials, your products or events. They want to engage with you and your business but if all you ever talk about is your product, it will leave them feeling cold. There are really only two objectives of Facebook: increase awareness to your brand, or increase sales. Don't try and do both at the same time. Decide what objective you want to meet first and start with that, then move to the next one. Both are important. Increase your brand awareness by providing great information, insights and educational pieces to your Facebook. Remember, Facebook is about your customer and client, not about you. For example, if you are a clothing retailer, you could post samples of ‘what not to wear’ or trends for fall. Once you have established your company as THE place to go, the next step is to increase your sales through Facebook. A great way to do this is to create a landing page that captures email addresses of visitors to your facebook page. Once you have this, you can start a direct sales marketing campaign to increase your sales. If you need help with your Facebook page, or have any questions, email us at: Ranchelle@MixedAdvertisingAgency.com

4506-39 Street, Camrose Ph. 780.672.1015

Do you carry any natural hair colorants that won’t damage my hair?

A:

“Yes! We have carried natural hair colorants for a number of years, and have just recently added a new product to our lineup. Naturtint® is the first permanent ammonia-free hair colorant that provides a natural intense color that is healthy to your hair, thanks to its exclusive green technologies. Naturtint® does NOT contain parabins, silicones, paraffin, mineral oils, heavy metals, artificial fragrances, SLS, or formaldehyde derivitives. Wheat proteins reduce hair breakage by 80%. Certified organic sunflower extract provides increased protection against the elements so your hair maintains intense color for up to 5 weeks.” Yvonne sums it up “This gentle formula is made especially for people who want a healthier way to color their hair. It is free of harsh chemicals that can damage hair and leave it dull, dry and brittle; so you are left with soft, shiny hair. It is pleasant smelling, because it does not contain ammonia. It covers gray hair in one application, and with so many shades, there is a color that is just right for everyone.” Answer provided by:

Q. A:

What are the options for replacing my countertops?

Laminate countertops offer the most budget-friendly options. The colors and patterns are almost limitless, with many options of granite looks gaining popularity. Solid surface materials like Corian can be a good option, seams are almost invisible. It is soft, so can be scratched or stained, but marks can be buffed out. Wooden butcher blocks can be added as an accent or used for the whole kitchen. This needs to be treated with food grade mineral oil to keep from drying out. There are numerous wood species from which to choose, which can dramatically affect the price. Concrete offers an industrial look, and can be done in a broad range of colors. This product will need to be sealed to prevent staining. It is resistant to cuts and heat. Concrete changes color and patina with age. Quartz has gained popularity due to the fact that it is a composite of quartz and resins, and resists stains or scratches. It does not need to be sealed. Manufacturers are introducing new color choices with larger granite looking patterns. Granite is 100% natural cut from slabs, so will offer the most choice as far as color and pattern variation. It does need to be sealed Answer provided by: 1 to 2 times per year. Pricing can greatly. The composition of Sheila Herle, vary the stone will also determine its Owner strength.

Q. A:

What is a router, and why would I want one? A Network Router is a piece of equipment that has two roles: 1) it allows multiple devices, such as smartphones, tablets, and computers, to all use a single High Speed Internet Connection (cable, DSL, wireless, etc.).

2) it helps protect your system from attacks that originate on the internet. This protection is sometimes also known as a Firewall. More advanced routers can also filter spam, viruses, and block users from certain websites. If you have multiple devices that use the internet or just one and want an added layer of security, you probably want to install a router. There are a large variety of routers available; I or one of our other experts can help you choose the one that’s right for you.

Q.

Why choose a hardware store to buy kitchen and laundry appliances?

A:

There are actually three reasons: Hauser Home Hardware Building Centre has an excellent reputation as a reliable store and building supply centre. I, personally, have a passion and goal to sell customers what they need not what may be best for our business. And, we sell the Frigidaire line-up, the company which invented the first refrigerator 90 years ago and continues to be the leader in appliance product innovation and reliability. If you haven’t shopped for appliances for a few years, you will likely be amazed with what is on the market today. In our dishwasher line I can tell you about the OrbitClean spray arm which is rated as offering four times better water coverage, yet not using more water! When it comes to ranges, wouldn’t you love to be able to have a dual oven with each compartment large enough to cook a 28 pound turkey at a completely different temperature? Or how about a stainless steel refrigerator with a special coating that virtually eliminates finger prints being visible? Or, imagine having an energy-efficient washing machine that soaks the entire load for perfect cleaning performance? Drop by, for a no-pressure positive experience. Answer provided by:

Q.

Should I have life and disability insurance? How much do I need?

A:

Did you know that in nearly half of Canadian households, the primary wage earner reported that if he or she died, surviving family members would have immediate trouble meeting everyday living expenses or be unable to cover expenses beyond only a few months? That survey finding from LIMRA reflects how millions of Canadians are either uninsured or underinsured and they’re overlooking an important aspect of their overall financial strategy. Think about what would happen if you unexpectedly passed away today. Who would pay for your funeral and your family’s monthly bills? Who would pay your monthly mortgage payment and other outstanding debts? How would your children’s future education be funded? And would your family be able to compensate for your lost paycheque, which would be gone forever? It all points to the importance of insurance which can provide money when you need it to offset lost earnings to your household or business in the event of a death or disabiity. The simple reality is that without adequate insurance coverage, your loved ones could face catastrophic consequences. Have a detailed discussion with your financial advisor about the insurance options available to you. Answer provided by:

Q.

Why do my bra straps fall off my shoulders?

A:

What a nuisance! There is nothing worse than having to pull and tug on any part of your outfit throughout the day not to mention your unmentionables. You may know that 80% of women wear the wrong bra size. What you may not know is the most common mistake women make when bra shopping is choosing one that is too big in the band, and too small in the cup. Did You Know? The bra band offers 90% of a bra’s support level. If it’s not fitting correctly your bra won’t function at its peak performance. Bra straps are placed in relation to the size of the band. For example, the straps of a 30D are positioned closer together than the straps of a 40D. Slipping straps may be caused by wearing a bra band too big for your body. With that being said, all women are shaped differently, and some women may experience difficulties because their shoulders slope slightly downward. Bra shopping is never easy when faced alone. Brands and styles fit differently, offer solutions for various issues and are suitable for some women and not others. My best advice is to eliminate the guessing game of bra shopping by seeking the assistance of a fitting specialist. Typically a bra fitting takes 10 minutes, and from there we can offer countless options that suit your unique needs. With a range from A-L in cup sizes and 28-54 in band sizes, you can be confident that Bra Necessities has just what you need. Answer provided by: See you in the fitting room!

Auto insurance rates climb

As a result of its annual public rate review, the Automobile Insurance Rate Board (AIRB) will permit premium levels for mandatory automobile insurance to increase by up to five per cent, effective November 1. Insurance companies have the option to implement all or part of the five per cent increase over the next three years. Both the AIRB’s actuary and the insurance industry agreed that a double digit percentage increase was once again warranted, citing a deterioration in third party liability bodily injury claims experience. Frequency of bodily injury claims is not an issue; however, the average cost of claims for 2012 and the estimates for prior years show significant increases.

Gordon was the third of ten children born to Don and Mary Purdy of Rich Valley, AB.

GOSPEL CONCERT RAISES $2,970 FOR OPEN DOOR A Camrose Country Opry gospel concert at the historic

Bailey Theatre in Camrose raised $2,970 for the programs offered by the Camrose Open Door Association. A total of 370 country gospel fans enjoyed songs like Snow White Dove by Don Bouvette (right) and the Don Bouvette Band from Caroline, Doug Ezeard, and Harry and Gladys Rusk (above), from Carrot Creek. The Camrose Open Door is set up to provide short term and transitional supportive housing to those aged 16-24. When in our supportive housing, youth are provided with food, drink, a bed, bathroom, closet space, and a secure living environment.

Punch Drunk Cabaret set to close Big Valley Jamboree Punch Drunk Cabaret will be performing at the Molson Canadian Saloon Sunday, August 4. By Murray Green

Whether local band Punch Drunk Cabaret is opening for Harlequin in Spruce Grove or playing after Tim McGraw in Camrose, the trio remains dedicated to their rockabilly/swing/country roots that have kept them busy for the last three years. "We shot a new video early in the year and released it in April. Shortly after that we received an endorsement deal with Waterstone guitars out of Nashville," explained vocalist Randy Bailer. "We are recognized as Waterstone guitar users and it gives us artist pricing for instruments. Terry (band member Terry Sawbones Grant) has used their guitars for years, so we thought it would be a good deal for us. I have never used one of their guitars before, but I have ordered one now." Terry plays both fourand 12-string bass guitars for the band that mixes the sound of rockabilly, outlaw country and steam punk swing with the energetic delivery of AC/DC. When the company leaders viewed the new video "The Immaculate Pompadours" and saw Terry playing the four-string bass, they quickly agreed to come on board. The two locomotive-like rhythm section is powered by Camrose drummer "Reverend" Robin Eklund with such propulsive energy that

it’s impossible for any audience to sit still. The spring and festival season is a busy time for the band. In the last month, the band has played at the North Country Fair near Slave Lake, the Dragonfly Music Festival in Wabamun, Canada Day in Spruce Grove and the Band Together Flood Relief Fundraiser in the Edmonton Starlite Room. "It is great to play at the

same venue with some high quality bands and musicians and rub shoulders with the guys from Harlequin and Fred Penner," said Randy. "I remember watching Harlequin on television and liking their music, so it was exciting to see them. You never forget your early memories and what got you excited about music in the first place. It is a thrill." It took two years to get

Punch Drunk Cabaret to the Big Valley Jamboree. "Larry Werner (Panhandle Productions producer) heard us play at Jaywalkers' Jamboree and has followed us since then. In May, we received an invitation and it was even more exciting when we learned that we were closing. What it means to us, is that we can play our music at different festivals and people can still enjoy the music. It's an

opportunity for us to broaden our fan base." Playing at BVJ confirms that. "We are not a contemporary country band, but people can enjoy our energy and music," added Randy. "All of the music we do is tied to that (country) genre. I think it (our music) will be enjoyed and go over great." BVJ is a world class event. "Just playing at an event like this allows you to have more exposure because the eyes are on you," continued Randy. "When you follow Tim McGraw it really brings up your game. It's the old saying, if you want to improve you have to play with people better than you. That is really important to us. It is good to play at the festivals, because you are playing along side a lot of good bands. It's world class entertainment." Punch Drunk Cabaret has been road testing some songs ever since they released their first self-titled CD. "Early next year we want to release our second CD. We will add a couple of new songs to judge which ones should be recorded. The band has also supported high ranking acts like Nickelback, the Tragically Hip, 54-40, and the Northern Pikes, receiving national radio play, touring in the US and Europe. The first music video for the band was for the song "Two Brown Bottles of Beer," which was shot live at a sold out show at the historic Bailey Theatre in the band’s hometown of Camrose.

Kids of Steel program introduces sport of triathlon By Les Parsons, Vikings coach

Kids of Steel? Yes, you read that correctly. In our sport of triathlon, the event for children is called Kids of Steel for a reason. It refers to how tough our kids need to be to compete in our demanding sport of triathlon. This year marks the first year that our Camrose Ski Club has offered triathlon to youth in our community. Triathlon is a triple sport involving the completion of three consecutive and sequential endurance disciplines: swimming, biking and running in immediate succession. Triathletes compete for the fastest overall course completion time, including timed transitions between the individual swim, bike and run components. Our Junior Vikings Triathlon Team consists of 25 youth, ages nine to 14, some volunteer coaches and some support parents. In May, our Junior Vikings started practising three afternoons per week, at action-packed two-technique split-practises of swim and run, bike and run, and bike and swim. Our practises are fun because we have an incredibly dedicated volunteer head coach Mark Eggink, who provides a variety of challenging and interesting adventures for our youth at every practise. I have been coaching endurance sports for 30 years, but I have never cocoached with such a dynamic coach as Mark. His number one priority is the safety of our kids, but, fun is his second priority. The smiles on the faces of our kids, their parents, and even us other coaches, is proof that Mark is a great coach who we are very fortunate to have in our community. Volunteer parents Jeff Humphrey and Kelly Bauer, both active triathletes, are sharing their expertise to help Mark to coach our team. I show up once in a while, just to be entertained by Mark – my "Mister Bean" or "Forrest Gump" of the coaching world. The credit for our great Vikings' team spirit goes to Mark and his coaches, who

give each and every child an equal amount of positive feedback, so they feel really important as a member of our team. The focus of our Junior Vikings Triathlon Team is to encourage our youth to experience and enjoy lifelong sport as part of an active healthy lifestyle. We promote fun, participation and skill development. Our youth are challenging themselves to learn new skills like swimming, biking and running. The improvement in their skills and fitness over the past two months has been amazing. Our secret to success is not only great coaching. Camrose offers three great resources for triathlon. The Camrose Aquatic Centre staff have been very accommodating to schedule us into their great facility. Our Rotary Club Four Seasons Park in the Stoney Creek Valley, has a challenging trail system, that is the ideal training site for biking and running. Konrad and his staff

at the bike shop have been extremely helpful in keeping our kids' bikes in working order. Our Junior Vikings have already competed in a few Kids of Steel Triathlons, our first being our own Camrose Mini-Tri in June, followed by the Vegreville Kids of Steel, and, another in Beaumont. Our next three Kids of Steel Triathlons are in Devon, Stettler, and we finish with our own Camrose Mini-Tri at the end of August. Our goal equals finishing is winning! The most important priority for our team is to see the smiles on our kids faces as they cross the finish line with a feeling of accomplishment. We don't focus on results, we focus on enjoying the process of learning to be a healthy, balanced athlete. The Camrose Ski Club offers a multi-season organization of outdoor sports, so that our Junior Vikings and their families can be a part of our team all year long, and, for many years.

The special thing about our Junior Vikings, is that they enjoy the opportunity to train with our Augustana Vikings cross-country running team, ski team, biathlon team and triathlon team. After triathlon season ends in August, we will change our focus to cross country running in the fall. Once the snow flies, we will change our focus to cross country skiing and biathlon. Watch for more information in August, when we will offer opportunities for older junior high school and high school aged athletes to join our team for cross country running. Older youth in junior high school and high school from 13 to 18 years of age, from other summer sports like soccer, swimming, biking, who are really interested in learning how to run and joining our team in September, or learning how to cross-country ski this winter, are encouraged to contact myself, coach Les Parsons at les.parsons@ualberta.ca or 780-691-6912

Some of our Junior Viking triathletes need better bikes. Some of our youth are riding used, older mountain bikes or 10-speed road bikes that are barely holding together, and in need of repair. A few of their bikes are too small; as young growing athletes, some of our youth have out-grown their bikes this summer! If your family has any used mountain bikes or 10-speed road bikes, which you will not be using again, but are in good enough working condition to be used for racing, we would really appreciate your consideration of donating your bike to our team. Your donated bike would stay with our team from year to year, so that each spring new triathletes would have a bike that fits. Or, if you would consider selling us your used bike at an affordable fair cost, that would be equally appreciated. If you have a bike to donate or sell, phone Les to arrange a quick visit to look at your bike.

Bicyclists will make three laps of city for local tour watchers By Murray Green

Tour of Alberta cyclists will be entering Camrose from the north and will be making three laps within the city before riders cross the finish line on the first day of the event on Sept. 4. Cyclists will be heading south on 53 Street and then head east on 50 Avenue until they hit 50 Street. The tour heads south to 44 Avenue where riders will turn west. The tour goes back north past the hospital to 48 Avenue, east to 51 Street and then back to 50 Avenue to complete the first lap. The Tour of Alberta will

feature some of the world’s top cyclists covering 900 kilometres of roads from Sept. 3 to 8. The leader of each day's event is awarded the green Tour of Alberta sprint jersey at the end of each stage and at the overall finish of the race. Stage 1 is from Strathcona County in Fort Saskatchewan to Camrose. “Sprints add a really exciting element to the race and for communities along the route,” said Tour of Alberta chair and former professional cyclist Brian Jolly. “Cycling sprinters are the

ones who can finish a race very explosively by accelerating quickly to a high speed. Their teams often shelter them so they can conserve their energy for that highspeed sprint effort.” Fifteen of the best professional cycling teams in the world will be competing in the 2013 Tour of Alberta, including Team Argos-Shimano (Netherlands); Belkin Pro Cycling Team (Netherlands); BMC Racing Team (USA); Cannondale Pro Cycling (Italy); Team Garmin-Sharp (USA); Orica GreenEDGE (Australia); Champion System Pro

Cycling Team (China); UnitedHealthCare Pro Cycling Team (USA); Bissell Pro Cycling (USA); Canadian National Team (Canada); 5-Hour Energy p/b Kenda Racing Team (USA); Equipe Garneau-Quebecor (Canada); Jelly Belly p/b Kenda Racing Team (USA); Optum Pro Cycling p/b Kelly Benefits Strategies (USA); and Team SmartStop p/b Mountain Khakis (USA), which will feature Making the Tour Champion, Kris Dahl from Calgary. Eight riders from each team will compete in the Tour of Alberta. The final

roster of cyclists for each team will be announced in August. Official stage maps and more information about the Tour of Alberta can be found at www.tourofalberta.ca. Follow the Tour of Alberta on Twitter @TourofAlberta or on Facebook at TourofAlberta. On Wednesday, Sept. 4, several streets in Camrose will be blocked off to traffic to accommodate the racers during the stage one finish of the Tour of Alberta. The Camrose streets will likely be closed between 2:45 and 3:45 p.m.

Exercise tips for seniors

It’s important for people of all ages, especially seniors, to stay active. According to the Centers for Disease Control, being physically active can reduce your risk of dying from heart disease and decreases the risk for colon cancer, diabetes and high blood pressure. Physical activity also helps control weight; contributes to healthy bones, muscles and joints; relieves the pain of arthritis; reduces symptoms of anxiety and depression; and can decrease the need for hospitalizations, physician visits and medications. Indeed, there’s a lot riding on incorporating exercise into your lifestyle. There’s no better time than now to start exercising. Be sure to check with your doctor before increasing your physical activity, especially if you have a chronic disease or family history of chronic disease, chest pain, shortness of breath, high blood pressure, asthma, diabetes, blood clots, infections or fever, joint swelling, hip surgery or a hernia.

Here are some tips to help you get started: * Don’t just jump into a fitness routine. First, stretch your arms, legs and back. Start off slowly, gradually increasing the pace of your exercise. Don’t do too much too soon or you will hurt yourself. For example, start with 10 minutes of walking and go to 20 and then 30 minutes, the AARP suggests. For a strength-training program using weights and machines, talk to a fitness instructor on how much weight to lift. * Exercise should make you feel better, not worse.

A little soreness, discomfort or fatigue is normal. Listen to your body – if you feel lightheaded, a shortness of breath, a sudden, severe headache, are sweating excessively, or have pains in the chest, stomach or anywhere else, you should stop exercising. If symptoms persist, contact your doctor. * If you are on medication or have a condition that alters your heart rate, don’t use your pulse as a judge of how fast your heart is or should be beating. * Wear the proper protective equipment for your activity. If you are biking,

Helpful Tips for Writing Classified Ads Which Get Results! Be Thorough

Sure you want your ad to stand out from the rest, but don’t skimp on the sort of information that sells. The item’s condition, size, age, brand name, and color are some of the basics readers want to know. Without them, your ad may be overlooked.

Steer Clear of Abbreviations

Okay, so you want to include all the important basics. Don’t use strange abbreviations because our ads are designed to spell all the important details. Besides, you are not paying by the line, but by the word, so there is really no need to abbreviate.

Be Honest

Exaggerating your item’s finer points may bring in a lot of responses, but a buyer who’s misled won’t appreciate it and will take his business somewhere else.

State Your Price

The cost of an item is one of the most important concerns of want ad readers. Ads showing prices are ones which get results. Giving a price also serves to “weed out” those buyers not in your price range.

Camrose Impact garner bronze Submitted

Winning a bronze medal at the provincial soccer tournament was a great way for the Camrose Impact under 14 boys' team to wrap up an excellent season. The season began at the beginning of May in Camrose with the annual Sunbreaker tournament. The Impact showed they were a force to be reckoned with by winning all of their games including the gold medal game. Regular season games were played throughout May and June. There were many strong teams in the district, including another tough Camrose team, all of which challenged the Impact to improve. The Impact ended the regular season in second place. Camrose and District Soccer Association’s annual Night Classic tournament, held in early June, attracted many challenging teams. Both Camrose teams, being in separate pools, came away with silver medals. Two weeks later the path to provincials led to Stettler and the qualifying tournament. The two Camrose teams played each other in their first game. The rivalry between the two was left unsettled as they played to a hard fought tie. But the final game of the tournament had the Impact beat Sylvan Lake 6-2. During July 5 to 7 the Camrose Impact team was at the provincial tournament in Edson with eight other teams from around the province. The Impact started the tournament with a 9-1 blowout against a shaken team from Devon. Camrose goals were scored by many different players showing the depth of scoring ability on the team. The second game, against team Olds, was a heart-stopper! The Impact were down 2-1 at the end of the first half. Although most of the second half was played in the Olds end of the field, strong play by the Olds defense and goalie kept the ball out of the net. With two minutes left, Camrose scored to tie it. Play continued while the coaches were madly reviewing the rule book to determine if a shootout or overtime were required. With 10 seconds remaining, an expertly placed pass across the front of the net and over the goalie, found two wide open Camrose players and the game was won. Having made it to the semifinals, the Impact played off against the soon-to-be tournament winning team from Vegreville. Camrose lost the game 4-2, but gave Vegreville its toughest game of the tournament. In the bronze medal game, Camrose shook off the earlier loss and played a strong, consistent game. They were rewarded with a 4-0 shutout of a desperate team from Peace River.

Berries are very healthy By Samara Froland, Camrose

Wildlife Stewardship Society summer coordinator Last Thursday was a beautiful evening for picking berries at the Stoney Creek Centre. Community members were invited to attend a short presentation on local berries followed by a walk through the valley. I, the Camrose Wildlife Stewardship Society (CWSS) coordinator, briefly discussed berries that had been seen in the Stoney Creek valley. These included wild strawberries, saskatoons, wild raspberries and chokecherries, as well as less tasteful berries, such as soapberries. The program coordinator described the features and uses of each of the berries as well as included their health benefits. I mentioned some surprising facts about berries, such as the fact that three rose hips contain as much Vitamin C as one orange. The crowd also learned that chokecherry seeds are poisonous, but if dried, they can be eaten safely. Attendees had the opportunity to taste homemade goods made with wild berries. The preservatives and baking were well enjoyed. I led a tour through the valley showing people the best locations for wild berries. Event participants enthusiastically identified the berries they recognized and picked those that were edible. Anyone who resisted the temptation to eat their berries, which was almost no one, was able to take fruit home with them. The coordinator provided recipe booklets for the event members as souvenirs. On Thursday, August 1, CWSS will be hosting an event at Camrose Railway Station and Tea Room at 7 p.m. Glenys Smith, an expert on naturescaping will demonstrate her gardening work and provide tips on how to landscape in a way that benefits nature.

Site improvements made for Big Valley Jamboree festival By Dan Jensen Country music fans will be noticing a few changes at this year's Big Valley Jamboree. "We have made close to a half million dollars in various improvements to the site just in the last month," said Big Valley Jamboree producer Larry Werner. "We're hoping to give the fans who come out the best experience yet." One of the biggest improvements is the addition of a new raised shale pad that will get people in their lawn chairs sitting anywhere from 12 to 18 inches higher than the white chairs in front of them. "There are a combination of reasons we decided to do it," said Werner. "It will create better visibility and better drainage and it will help to separate the people who are sitting from those who are standing." The Jamboree will also feature new pavement, new lighting in the concert bowl area and a new dance area towards the back of the bowl with a 4,800 square foot dance pad and a jumbotron. "We put a new video screen in there so people can dance and see the artists," said Werner. "It's going to cost us about $50,000 to rent it for the three days but it is necessary. The fans can look to the stage to see the artist if they want a nice closeup and enjoy their experience that way. We've been wanting to add another jumbotron for a few years now and we finally had the opportunity to add it to the mix." In an effort to create better traffic flow, Jamboree organizers (Panhandle Productions) moved the concert bowl concessions to the northwest corner. "We wanted to give people the ability to move more freely through the area and not feel so boxed in," said Werner. "They'll be able to concentrate in an certain area and still leave room for others to get around and move." The new layout also improves the site's safety and security and provides better access for emergency vehicles should they ever be required. Big Valley Jamboree believes that making improvements is key to keeping fans coming back year after year. "People these days are very mobile," said Werner. "They know what they want and they know what they like and if we can't give it to them then they are going to start looking at going elsewhere. Our take on things is that you have to take care of the fans. They are the ones that make the festival a success. You have to continually try to give something back to them or improve something that makes their overall experience worthwhile. It is something that we have tried to do regularly, but again, it comes at a cost." Big Valley Jamboree is hoping to add another camping area in 2015 once the new grass that has been planted becomes more established. "We need it to be able to hold up under the big units that are coming in," said Werner. "We'll be doing some mowing, packing and testing of the area next year to see what it can handle but it may need two good years before it is up to standards. Ideally it would be nice to use it next year because there are pockets that we can't go into (for camping). They're low so if any rain comes they catch the water and somebody wakes up in a swimming pool."
