Shelter Society and Shoppers A healthy appearance leads to a healthier mind. Drug Mart, at two Camrose locations, are partnering to raise funds in support of women’s whole health in the community. The campaign runs until Oct. 11. Staff, suppliers and customers can add a leaf for a loonie, a butterfly for $5, an acorn for $10, or a cardinal for $50. The staff have donated funds from barbecues and bake sales to add to the campaign as well. Owner Gary Wowk wants the entire community to help improve women’s health in body, mind and spirit.

The local shelter provides a safe place for women and children who need support or who leave an abusive situation. Sadly women are being abused every day and many children are witnessing these events. The shelter offers a safe place to stay and connect with services. Often food, clothing, information and crisis intervention assist women in time of need. The shelter also has child care and a school program. For more information on the Camrose Women’s Shelter Society services view the website www.brigantiaplace.org or contact 1-877-672-1010 for more information.

Cargill Ltd. will provide $4 million in compensation to the City of Camrose for the costs associated with the advancement of waste water infrastructure services. "The Cargill development will require the upgrades to be moved up on schedule," said City manager Damian Herle in a report to City council Sept. 16. The City was originally expecting to start making improvements to the waste water system by 2018-19.

Council approves water services agreement By Dan Jensen
City council has given its approval to a water services agreement that will see the City of Camrose provide raw lake water to the Cargill canola crushing facility for a period of 30 years and accept the plant's waste water. " The agreement calls for Cargill to pay for the raw water usage at a percentage of the City's rate schedule for treated water, as may be amended from time to time," said City manager Damian Herle in a report to Camrose City council Sept. 15. "The sliding scale calls for a higher percentage cost based on higher usage." A simple calculation of water revenue using 2013 (treated) water rates, revenue would be approximately $250,000 a year for usage of 800 cubic metres a day and approximately
$389,000 a year for usage of 1,100 cubic metres a day. "In considering long term revenue calculations, there are a variety of factors that have to be considered, such as the amount of water usage per year, future water conservation techniques/applications, the City's future water rates and the number of years the plant will be operating," said Herle. City expenses related to raw water will mainly be electrical costs for the pumping of additional water. "It is estimated that approximately $20,000 would be the initial additional charges," said Herle, "however this will be solely dependent on electricity rates." Cargill will be responsible for all aspects of the water line construction, which will tie into the City's raw water line and branch
off to the plant. Monitoring equipment will be installed for both the raw water supply and the waste water discharge. City administration is recommending that council in 2015 consider allocating raw water revenue towards capital wastewater/water capital projects required, or allocating the funds to a general capital reserve fund to help capital projects in general. The City of Camrose received a preliminary certificate of approval to withdraw additional allocations from Dried Meat Lake. The approval also included an allocation specific to the Cargill development. Lake station replacement Council approved the addition of a $3 million lake station to the 2013 capital budget. "The scope of this project will include a replace-
ment of the City's existing lake station with a new station which has the capacity to meet the City's long term water pumping needs," said a report by assistant municipal engineer, infrastructure and planning, Jeremy Enarson. "Based on a preliminary study undertaken by the City's infrastructure and planning department with the assistance of an external consultant, the City's peak hour water needs was anticipated to exceed the capacity of the existing infrastructure sometime in the next five years." The new lake station will be constructed at a higher elevation to reduce the risk of flooding damage. The Federal Gas Tax Fund will pay for $2,950 of the total cost, with the remainder coming from water capital reserves.
water licence issued by Alberta Environment and Sustainable Resources Development," said Herle, "the City is required to start upgrades before it reaches a population of 20,000." The flow of waste water from the Cargill plant is estimated at 400 cubic metres a day for short term requirements and 600 metres per day for longer term needs. "The increased flows to the City's wastewater system will account for 3.3 per cent of total City waste water flow to the City's treatment facility based on water usage of 800 cubic metres per day and 5.2 per cent based on projected longer term water usage of 1,100 cubic metres per day," said Herle. Cargill will be required to do initial waste water treatment on their plant site to ensure that all requirements of the City's waste water bylaw are met or exceeded before the City accepts its flows to the waste water facility. Herle said while the total cost of the upgrades are not known at this time, it will be a substantial capital project regardless of the ultimate approvals from the province. Herle said discussions with Alberta Environment and Sustainable Resources Development have revealed that a land based option (lagoon expansion) may well be a viable option for the upgrades.

Cargill provides update to council
THREE-DAY
By Dan Jensen
The agreement by Cargill Ltd. to provide $4 million for the supply of raw water will allow the City of Camrose to proceed with planned improvements to its waste water infrastructure. It will also help Cargill avoid protracted negotiations, costs and time loss associated with an application to the provincial government for a water licence. "We do recognize there are additional costs to the City of Camrose in the form of raw and waste water and we have put together a package that we think is fair to help compensate the City for this," said Cargill vice president of operations and engineering in a presentation to City council Sept. 16. Collison noted that Cargill will start driving the piles for the new facility as soon as it obtains building permit approval. "We are going to do our best to get it done sometime in very late 2014 but if it ends up slipping to the spring of 2015 it would not be surprising," he said. Collison estimates there will be over 400 workers on site at the time of peak construction. "There could be as much as $30 million given to local contractors here in Camrose, local companies," he said. "With the contractors we are hiring the majority are within Alberta. We have a few coming from Saskatchewan but by far and away it is going to be the City of Camrose and the province of Alberta where that money is going." As well as the 50 full time jobs, the Cargill facility will be providing 50 to 75 indirect jobs for truckers, electricians pipefitters and labourers. Cargill will also be working with the universities, both in Camrose and Edmonton, to develop internships in the areas of grain marketing, accounting, operations and environment. Once completed, the facility will be processing about 850,000 tonnes of canola per year. "Producers within a 100 mile radius will maximize the benefit and also have access to Cargill's premium specialty canola program," said Collison. Cargill will continue to work with the City and County residents, mindful of the impact it is going to have on the community. "We are in partnership with the community and we are looking to strengthen those (partnerships)," said Collison.

Candidates file nomination papers for Oct. 21 elections By Dan Jensen and Murray Green
Russell Hawkins, Norm Mayer and Mike Morris will be contesting the mayor's position in the City of Camrose election Oct. 21. "I guess it always makes it interesting when you have some competition, so we will see what the voters decide," said Mayer. Candidates for the eight openings on Camrose City council are Douglas Appleby, Gordon Berg, Phil Hall, Janet Hatch, Anthony Hladun, Garth Horton, Agnes Hoveland, Kevin Hycha, Max Lindstrand, Pat Mader Mundel, Ray McIsaac, Sandra McLay, Joan Petruk, Bill Sears, Valerie Sims, PJ Stasko, Wayne Throndson, Dave Wolsey, Greg Wood and Sara Zylka. Lindstrand and McIsaac are the incumbents, while Throndson and Wood have served on City council in the past. The deadline for submitting nominations for mayor and City council was noon Sept. 23 at the Camrose Fire Hall. Separate School Trustee
Candidates for one position on the Elk Island Separate School board are Ronald Baier and incumbent Luisa Davidse. County Council
Camrose County will have at least one race this election. Reeve Don Gregorwich is being challenged by Kendall Severson of Bawlf for the position of councillor in Division 3. Kenneth Krause, Division 2; Trevor Miller, Division 4; Gregory Gillespie, Division 6; and Doug Lyseng, Division 7 were all acclaimed when no other candidates filed nomination papers. Division 1 and 5 in the County will remain open until Sept. 24 due to no candidates filing at the County building Sept. 23. If no candidates step forward by Tuesday noon, the position will be left open until a suitable candidate is found. Battle River School Divison
Trustee Cheryl Smith, Tiffany Doig, Norman Erickson and Lorrie Sitler will be seeking two city of Camrose positions on the board. Board chair Doug Bowie has retired. In Camrose south, Shelley Grundberg also stepped down, but Judith Mazankowski let her name stand and was acclaimed. Beaver County east trustee Jim Fielding retired, allowing Tracey Boast Radley to fill the position uncontested. Beaver County west incumbent Rebecca Heiberg of Kingman will be running against Zsuzanna Hemperger of Tofield. Flagstaff County east incumbent Peter Miller of Forestburg will run against James Andre of Forestburg. Incumbent Noreen Metz of Hardisty is being challenged by Laurie Skori of Kinsella in the Flagstaff County west position. Under Section 32 of the Local Authorities Act, candidates may withdraw their nominations at any time within 24 hours after the close of the nomination period. Therefore nomination documents do not become official until September 24.
THE RACE IS ON

Remuneration committee stands by recommendation By Dan Jensen
A recommendation by an independent citizens' committee that the City increase the mayor's annual remuneration from $53,478 to $57,239 but keep the compensation for the eight councillors at the current $17,987 was presented to Committee of the Whole Council for review Sept. 16. "As a committee we feel there is a certain amount of money that can be set aside for governance and that is what we have allocated," said committee spokesman Larry Johnson. "We think it is a fair and a very good sell to the citizens of Camrose." The citizens' committee was established at the June 17 council meeting with the mandate of reviewing all aspects of the current council support policy. "We looked at a number of communities of similar size, took their number of councillors they had and came up with what we felt was a good average that this community should be paying," explained Johnson.
The committee also used several general principles established in previous remuneration deliberations, including one that took into account the total cost of supporting the entire council. Fairness Councillors Brandon Blatz and Lindstrand questioned the fairness of the methodology on which the committee based the recommendation, noting the size of the Camrose council in relation to comparative communities across Alberta should not have any bearing on the amount the councillors are paid. "Of the six communities that were compared, the councillors here are the lowest paid," said Blatz. "We are looking to draw people into running for council and the pay should be commensurate with the workload. A councillor is a councillor and the work load doesn't get less because there are more of us." Councillor Lindstrand said the basic question is
whether it is fair to discount the remuneration of the Camrose council by 25 per cent. "I guess my position is that there is a core of work that has to be done. Whether you have six or eight councillors there is a core of work. I agree we can adjust the council committees and there is some possibility to work within that but it really comes down to whether or not democracy is better served by having eight councillors or would be just as well off to have six. I would argue that during my terms in council I have appreciated the fact that we have had the amount of input from varied sources and different opinions, and so I think eight councillors has served democracy as well in our community. I also think it makes it more difficult for certain factions to come out of council and have certain sway in decision making." Lindstrand noted that remuneration for Camrose
councillors is low compared to Wetaskiwin, where the councillors receive $27,000 a year. "They have a population of 12,500, ours is 18,000. Their operating budget is $24 million, ours is $42 million. Even from a governance aspect you could argue that the governance would be a little more complex in a city that is half again as big." Councillor Blatz proposed a happy median method that would bring the remuneration for City councillors up to $20,860. "I thought instead of using the cost of living allowance we could do it as a grid," said Blatz. Committee member Dr. Allen Berger said just about any methodology is possible with the information that was provided. "We provided averages and medians for all the comparison communities. We provided averages removing the highs and the lows. There are multiple
points of view. The one we believe is the most defensible is the one we recommended." Training Councillor John Howard expressed concern about the committee's recommendation for the City to budget $34,000 for sending councillors to conferences, conventions, seminars and meetings related to their duties. "I wonder if you looked at some of our budget submissions for reimbursements for the conferences we attend. I submit that even for eight of us to go to Edmonton to the AUMA for four days, by the time we pay the registration fees, which become astronomical, the hotel fees which are always jacked up for a conference like that, then most of that $34,000 could be spent on that one conference, and that doesn't even take into account the FCM conference.

*Limited Quantities Kerry Rajotte
By Christopher Thrall In the past week, Camrose’s new Performing Arts Centre achieved two major milestones: the first solar panels of one of Alberta’s largest photovoltaic arrays were installed on the side of the tallest building in Camrose, and Kerry Rajotte started as theatre manager. “I have been watching the construction from a distance online,” says Kerry, fresh from the Fergus Grand Theatre outside Guelph, Ontario. “I could see the building grow on a daily basis. But when I had my hard hat tour and walked into the space where the stage will be… when I looked up into that seventy-foot fly tower… I got very emotional. That was when it became real for me.” Kerry spent over three years managing the 80-year-old, 256-seat theatre in Fergus. She introduced year-round programming for children, families, music and dance lovers with the help of over 100 volunteers. Before that, she spent four years in marketing for Kitchener’s 2000seat Centre In The Square and three years with the 300-member Grand Philharmonic Choir after she earned her BFA in Visual Arts from the University
of Toronto. Now she is in charge of Camrose’s keenly anticipated 550-seat theatre. Kerry reports that she was drawn here by the close City-University partnership, the vision for diverse programming, and the cutting-edge green technology. “Over my time in the arts, I have done it all,” Kerry laughs. “I’ve sold tickets, hired piano tuners, quick-dressed actors during scene changes, picked up soloists at the airport, hosted gala events and even plunged toilets. I love what I do. I love the process of getting live performances onto the stage and engaging the community in what’s going on around them.” With her new theatre to be completed in the spring, Kerry plans to first open the doors to the community. Local groups are anxious to use the space, and Camrose area audiences are eager to get a look inside. She plans to offer dates over the spring and summer for dance performances, day camps or recitals to anyone who wants to use it. She already carries her booking book with her. Kerry will approach other local groups with ideas on how they can
@CreativeBedr00m
use the space to their advantage: she mentions the architectural f low between the Mayer Family Community Hall and the sweeping, windowed lobby ideal for displaying art or information as perfect for anything from art classes to craft shows or annual general meetings. “We can even use Augustana’s quad,” she says. “Imagine sitting outdoors on chairs or blankets in the sun, watching a performance on the theatre steps or on the balcony just above your head!” During this time, local groups can get to know the space and sell tickets for their events, while Kerry can watch for any customer service areas which may need improvement. “Then, next September, hang on to your hats!” Kerry says. “There are gala plans – which I am not sharing right now – but they will probably spread over several events!” Kerry was selected out
of applicants from across Canada to run the new Performing Arts Centre. The selection committee included Camrose Mayor Marshall Chalmers, Dean of the University of Alberta’s Augustana Campus Dr. Allen Berger, and president of the Bailey Theatre Society Judy McLean. “We did this search right,” says Mayor Chalmers. “We spread the widest possible net to attract the most talented people for the position. Most important was finding someone who would reach out to and embrace the existing arts community. In Kerry, we found the perfect combination of experience and enthusiasm to build our new Performing Arts Centre into a place Camrose will be proud to call its own.” “When I was researching the position before my interview, I was delighted to find out that I would have a chance to meet Judy right away,” says Kerry. “I didn’t see the Bailey as competition: we have two
really different spaces and they are going to accommodate different kinds of live entertainment. I see so many opportunities for us to work collaboratively, sharing resources, maybe volunteers. Two such wonderfully appointed facilities open up a world of opportunity for events which visit both facilities. This kind of collaboration provides audiences with different ways to see and engage with artists and performers who come to Camrose.” Along with building partnerships with the area’s arts community and reaching out to groups who could use the space, Kerry has several other responsibilities in her immediate future. While planning the inaugural season, she will have to staff the theatre and assist with the ongoing $5million fundraising campaign. Continued on page 10

“We will start the search for a technical director/operations coordinator. This is one of the key roles for the facility as this individual will be working very closely with everyone who uses the space,” she says. “Closer to opening we will be looking for several other individuals to fill key organizational roles, plus our ongoing search for volunteers.” Volunteers will be essential in the Performing Arts Centre, since they will be the first people many visitors will meet. “Volunteers will be our public face, they will have a serious impact on the quality of our customer service. Those individuals are key,” Kerry says. “I will be out to as many events as they let me attend with my sign, looking for willing volunteers. There will be opportunities for anyone who loves the arts and is looking to help their local community.” This reliance on volunteer support is part of the modern theatre scene. When federal funding for arts groups dried up, volunteers, sponsors and donors became the lifeline for every arts organization. Kerry explains, “Those are the people who have the vision, who understand how important arts and culture are to a community; you don’t have to sell them on it.” Kerry offers a number of ways that supporters can help make the Performing Arts Centre a reality, from volunteering to contributing to the current “Take a Seat” campaign which offers an opportunity for individuals to have their name or the name of a loved one placed on one of the Theatre seats.
“Arts and culture sponsors and supporters understand how important it is as part of the human experience to have access to live performance in this kind of facility,” Kerry says. “I’ve really been so impressed with how ahead of the curve Camrose is in embracing the fact that arts and culture need to be intertwined with business and tourism. I hope we can bring it all together and build this little arts hub in the heart of the city.” As a member of the selection committee, Dr. Allen Berger of Augustana Campus was delighted to help bring Kerry to Camrose and the Performing Arts Centre. “Kerry did her homework,” he says, “and she had a lot of ideas about how to open and run this exciting theatre venue – ideas we hadn’t considered to attract diverse audiences, make them feel welcome and keep them coming back. I am looking forward to supporting her, and I can’t wait to see what she plans for the first season of our new theatre.” Kerry is ready to meet the challenges she faces. “Right now, the community doesn’t know me and I don’t know them,” she explains. “My immediate future is getting out and meeting and greeting and shaking hands with as many people as possible. I’m hoping that my excitement about the project will rub off on people! I hope to either introduce them to – or carry on their love of – the performing arts. Our new fly tower is the tallest building in Camrose, and can be seen from all over the city: there’s a beacon for us – welcoming everyone to the Performing Arts Centre!”

Remuneration committee stands by recommendation to City council Continued from page 8
no opportunity to benefit from any decision that is made, but a major part of my development as councillor, I believe, has been not only the participation with fellow councillors who have had years of experience that they could pass on but also the opportunity to go to some of these conferences, interact with councillors from not only across Alberta but from across Canada, and to participate in some very valuable training sessions. I think it would be wrong for us to deny councillors the opportunity to gain that training if they are willing to commit to it." Dr. Berger noted the committee did not look at the cost of conferences per se but did look at the pattern of expenditures over the past several years and found that the budget for conferences has been consistently under spent. "Recognizing that the budget this year has been under spent, we recommended a rollover into next year, agreeing with you about the importance of professional development for City councillors. With the new City council coming in we anticipated significant demand on that budget and we think that demand is justified." Mayor Marshall Chalmers said there would be a mechanism for the council of the day to bring additional funding into the budget if it was required. The formal adoption of the recommendation is scheduled for council's regular meeting on Oct. 7.

Culture Days celebration this weekend By Murray Green
Camrose will be joining the rest of the province in hosting some events during Alberta Culture Days Sept. 27 to 29. The Camrose Arts Society was selected as a host community for Alberta Culture Days. This designation, made by Alberta Culture, means that the local arts society received a grant of $5,000 to be able to offer a variety of cultural events for two days with no fees attached. "The idea of this initiative is to encourage Albertans and visitors to discover, experience and celebrate Alberta’s unique and talented artists and cultural expressions as well as promote the importance of culture in a prosperous and vibrant province," said Jane Cherry-Lemire, of the arts society. Even though this designation only requires two days of activity, local organizers have extended it over three days. Today (Sept. 24) is the deadline to enter a draw to be a guest DJ on CAM-FM
during the morning show on Sept. 27. Draw barrels are at the Chuck MacLean Arts Centre, Music Centre Canada, Camrose Public Library and Martha’s Music. On Sept. 27, Candler Art Gallery will be featuring a variety of acrylic artists. The show takes place from 9 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Call 780-6728401 for more details. The Camrose Camera Club will be displaying a collection of photographs that celebrate the arts through the eye of the lens. The show will be displayed at the Arts Centre until Oct. 4. The Camrose Centennial Museum will be baking bread and churning butter to share with visitors. They will also be offering guided tours. Hours will be from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Call 780-6723298 for details. "We are partnering with the Bailey Theatre to present Booming Tree Taiko. This professional contemporary duo brings a high energy performance steeped with stamina and endurance. Taiko is the Japanese art of drumming
and is a celebration of the strength and power of the human form," explained Jane. "Along with this wonderful show we are featuring local emerging comedian Tarisai Mbudzi. Tarisai is from the far-away land of Zimbabwe and will entertain you with his family friendly humour." The show begins at 6:30 p.m. and free tickets are available at the Chuck MacLean Arts Centre and Bailey box office. Call 780672-9949 for details. On Sept. 28, Camrose and District Craft Centre invites you to enjoy displays and demonstrations of weaving, spinning and pottery from 9 a.m. to noon at the craft centre, which is located on the top floor of the Community Centre. Call 780672-4857 for further details. From 10 a.m. to noon the Camrose Arts Society will be offering a variety of classes for children, teens and adults. Also from 10 a.m. to noon, Clay Wind Chimes will be offered. Local artist Diane McLaren will walk you through the steps to cre-
ate a beautiful wind chime. A follow up session will take place on Oct. 19. Local artist Tara Szott will offer a hands-on experience and show teen and adult students how to create a ceramic tile mosaic artwork that celebrates our beautiful Alberta landscape. Then from 11 to 11:45 a.m. join performers from About Time Productions in their Morning Musical Meanderings at the public library. Call 780-672-4214 for more information. Fabric Sculpting is a new and exciting art technique and Edmonton artists Pat Beveridge and Trudy Jansen are coming to demonstrate the technique from 1 to 3 p.m. A class is being held on Oct. 20 at the Arts Centre, so it would be a good introduction to this interesting art form. Children can have some fun while creating a unique acrylic painting on canvas with local artist Tara Szott. This workshop is designed for ages seven to 11. At 2 p.m. join author Audrey J. Whitson for a reading and a chat at the
public library. Copies of her book will be available for purchase. Between 4 and 5 p.m. children ages six to 12 are invited to a Taste of Drama, where they will get to see what real children’s live theatre is really like (with About time Productions). It takes place at the library. On Sept. 29, from 10 a.m. to noon, let your imagination run wild and join local artist Shannon Saby for a morning of creative expression using Dixie Cups and other materials. All ages are welcome. Children six and under must be accompanied by an adult at the arts centre. Then from 1:30 to 3 p.m., join Noreen Blonke as she walks you through the steps to learn the beautiful and inexpensive craft of Iris Folding. This workshop is at the arts centre and designed for ages seven to 11. All of these events and classes are free. Space is limited, so get your tickets and register soon to avoid disappointment. For more information call Jane at 780672-9949.

Preparing for hospice care Sometimes patients succumb to a disease, in spite of the best treatments and support. When the time comes for a family to confront a loved one's declining health, hospice care can be a dignified way to make that person's final days as comforting as possible. Hospice is a type of care designed to make the final moments of a person's life as pain-free and manageable as possible. It can take place in a medical facility, but very often hospice care occurs at home or wherever the ill person feels most comfortable. Hospice care is usually the last step when all other options have been exhausted. Making the decision to move a loved one to hospice care can be an emotionally wrenching time. Decisions such as these may be better made at a time in a person's life when he or she is not sick. That is why living wills that spell out details for end-of-life care can be quite valuable. Decisions are made with a level head and not wrought with emotions. Such living wills also can
take the pressure off of family members who may not feel comfortable making such decisions on their own or in concert with relatives. Hospice is a type of care and a philosophy that focuses on the palliative care of terminally ill patients. Rather than providing medication to try to treat the illness, medicine is offered to make a person more comfortable and remove any pain. Psychological therapy may also be offered to help the person come to terms with the end of life. Although hospice is a concept that has gradually evolved since the 11th century, the principles of modern hospice care can trace their roots to the 1950s and Dame Cicely Saunders, a nurse and social worker who is known as the creator of the hospice movement. If hospice care is outlined in a dying person's living will or expressed wishes, there are some guidelines that can be followed by the sick individual. * Visit various medical care centers to see if awayfrom-home options provide
the care and environment you desire. Be sure to establish what type of hospice care you prefer. This may include care within a nursing home or hospital, or in the comfort of your own home. * Sign a medical durable power of attorney. This signed document gives authority to an adult age 18 or older, who then has the right to make necessary medical and healthcare decisions for you in the event you become incapacitated. * Clearly indicate your wishes regarding resuscitation. A signed document may alert emergency healthcare personnel or others of your wishes not to be resuscitated. * Decide on the duration of care. Hospice care generally lasts six months. This enables a long stretch of palliative care. Should you live beyond the time period, hospice care can continue. Studies have shown that patients who receive hospice care for at least 30 to 60 days gain greater benefit than those who are placed in hospice only in their final days.

As a lifelong Camrosian, I cherish our lifestyle, our beauty, our safe environment. It’s a simply irresistible city in which to live, work and play. If city spending continues at the rate of recent years, I am fearful we will be faced with higher taxes and a decline in our core services. Think of me as your “prudent spender’ on the next council.

Wolsey brings youthful perspective By Dan Jensen
Dave Wolsey is hoping to bring a new and youthful perspective to Camrose City council after the Oct. 21 election. "I see Camrose from a different point of view than the business owner or the retiree," said Wolsey. "I see it not as a retirement home but as a place where I want to plant my roots and build on the roots of my wife's family." Wolsey wants to make sure that council doesn't cut services too much in order to maintain a reasonable level of taxation. "We have beautiful greenspaces, a historic downtown, wonderful sporting programs and a high level of policing, all of which make Camrose such a great place to live and I want to see all that continue," he said. Wolsey believes the City can offset higher taxes by servicing more land, attracting more businesses and creating more employment opportunities.
Dave Wolsey
"The more land that we have serviced the more land there is for us to sell," he said. "Serviced land is much more valuable than raw land." Wolsey points to the results of a recent Ipsos Reid survey to show that most people in Camrose are very satisfied with the quality of life they enjoy. Ninety eight per cent of respondents said the overall quality of life was good or very good, up from the
97 per cent of respondents who said the same thing in a survey done in 2011. Seventeen per cent said the quality of life has improved over the last three years, compared to 67 per cent who said it has stayed the same and 11 per cent who said it has worsened. Seventy three per cent of respondents said they felt they were receiving very good value or fairly good value for their tax dollar, compared to 25 per cent who said they were receiving poor value. Wolsey has lived in Camrose for the past sixand-one-half years and is currently employed as a server technician with 2nd Floor Computers and a broker with Wise Mortgage. He is a member of the Camrose Chamber of Commerce and has helped his church line up drives for the Camrose and District Food Bank. Wolsey and his wife have three children, with another one due in January.
Sandra McLay is ready to serve her community
By Murray Green Sandra McLay is no stranger when it comes to serving her community of Camrose. Over the last four years, she has sat on several boards to help improve and maintain a high standard of life within the city. Sandra moved here from Sedgewick because she fell in love with the city. "I love Camrose. I've known about Camrose for a long time," she said. "A lady I used to work with at Heritage Park was from Camrose. I asked her why she didn't come and live with her daughter (to avoid driving at age 86). She said no, I love Camrose too much. On our way to see a house in Sedgewick, we stopped in the city. I thought this place is amazing and it is so beautiful here. The lake, fountain and swans reminded me of Stratford, Ontario. It has kept the heritage, old streets and everything is so beautiful. This is why I chose Camrose and I want to see those things maintained." Sandra was a historical theatrical interpreter at Heritage Park for more than 10 years. "I was asked to help at the local museum in the one-room school house and I love doing that," she added. Sandra volunteers on
Sandra McLay
the boards for the museum, the railway museum, the Family Violence Action Society, Stroke Recovery and the Elder Abuse. She also helps with long term care. "I feel that I can do a lot of good on council. I had to think about it, but I feel that I have experience with boards. I want to preserve our past and protect our future," said Sandra. "I want to keep taxes low and our tourism high. We have done a lot to promote the city like the balloon festival and bike tour. We need those events and perhaps we need to develop more, like a winter festival. These events keep our city vibrant and bright. They attract people to come into our community to see our heritage and to see what we have to offer. That's the way we grow."
Sandra's idea of a winter carnival would make use of Mirror Lake with fun activities, while attracting more people to the city. Sandra knows how important it is to have facilities to attract people to Camrose. "We do need a swimming pool to attract swim meets, diving competitions and synchronized swimming events," she suggested. "We have the performing arts centre and City hall, that some people are upset about, but we can't do too much about it now. We need to attract more people to visit and live in our community to be able to pay for those projects. It is nice to bring in a diverse group of new people." A diverse council is also important. "My strengths are with social concerns. We need help with the women's shelter, keeping our children in education and helping senior programs. What I don't know a lot about, I'm willing to learn," she said. "I'm a talker, but I want to listen to what the people want and help with those concerns. I would get feedback from other councillors to try to find solutions. I never make a promise that I can't keep. My only promise is to always do my best."

plenty to love… but there are challenges ahead: Taxation Levels It’s clear to me our city’s taxation level has become prohibitive for residents, property owners and prospective business start-ups. We need to get our tax level back in line and competitive with other Alberta municipalities.

City’s Reluctance to Deal with Local Businesses I submit to you the City of Camrose should be working harder to do business with local trades and retailers. The “revolving business cycle” is a powerful force in providing employment and keeping money circulating within our own community. Camrose businesses are competitive – often better!
Basic City Services are at Risk Our streets and avenues are not in good condition. Our water treatment facility needs a substantial and costly upgrade. Our sewer system is in need of identified repair work. Recent spending authorized by City Hall, in my opinion, has been extravagant. We’ve overlooked our “core services” at the expense of a City Hall in particular. As a life-long businessman I welcome the opportunity to bring a business voice and a business perspective for the important decisions which lie ahead.

AGNES HOVELAND
“A voice for the arts community” Gordon Berg cherishes Camrose’s rich history with the arts. He believes we need to embrace the Bailey Theatre and the new Performing Arts Centre, and find ways to help Camrose’s many dance and drama groups to utilize these facilities more. If elected to city council, Gord would be a strong advocate for the arts, and is also passionate about Camrose’s vast parks system. He is a forward thinker, and is supportive of: the new City Hall project, the need for a new swimming pool, upgrading our water treatment facilities, establishing a joint City/County industrial park, an assessment of all the sports fields to determine if they need upgrading and would like to revisit the idea of bringing a public transit system to Camrose. Berg sees an opportunity to lobby the provincial government to have counties share pipeline and power line tax revenues. Through his experiences on many boards and executives, with part of his career spent working for various municipalities in Alberta, Gordon Berg has the knowledge and understanding that is required to be a great representative of the people of Camrose.
“I just want to serve the community in the best way I can.”

Two election forums By Dan Jensen
The Camrose Chamber of Commerce, City of Camrose and Alberta Teachers' Association will be hosting an election forum for city, county and school division candidates at the Bailey Theatre Oct. 8. Doors will open at 6:15 with the forum starting at 6:30 p.m. "We're going to be allotting a certain amount of time for the candidates to make opening and closing comments as well as answer questions submitted from the audience to a question moderator," said Camrose Chamber of Commerce executive director Sharon Anderson. "How much time they have will depend on the number of candidates who decide to declare.

Let’s get our city, our spending
Back to Basics Back to Reality Council has recently invested significant sums of money (virtually all of our anticipated provincial M.S.I. funding) into high profile projects. I believe the time has come for Council to consciously get back to directing your tax dollars and funding from other levels of government into our basic core services. My priorities will be our roads, sewer and water systems. I also feel strongly that our city’s “Rainy Day Fund” needs to be replenished. For tighter control on spending, count on me as your representative on Camrose City Council.

Quick cash The Camrose Police Service is investigating two complaints from local businesses where, on Sept. 7, their till staff became victim to the 'quick cash' scam. The scam involves an individual buying an expensive item with cash. The subject will pay for the item with a large denomination bill and when the cashier is getting the customer his change, the suspect changes his mind and tries to pay for the item with a smaller amount of cash. He uses this technique to confuse the cashier and will either convince the cashier to mistakenly give the wrong change back or grab the wrong bill(s) back himself. The male was seen driving an older model Chrevolet car. There are no other descriptions available at this time. Please remind your staff to be diligent when dealing with customers. Any occurrences similar to the above should be reported to the police immediately.
Letters to the Editor Letters are welcomed but please limit them to 500 words or less and sign with first name, initial, surname, address and phone number; only name of writer and city or town will be printed.

The Camrose Booster thanks you for your interest in the letters page and encourages your comments. Political problems Things are heating up in the political field in Alberta not only have the PCs taken to publically mentioning the opposition, a distinct departure from past premiers; but cussing them out through the media. Now I have great sympathy for our MLA Doug Griffiths as he must feel like a Chameleon in a florists shop. With the government changing steps faster than a cowboy in a
rattlesnake nest, poor Doug doesn’t know which map is right. Our poor MLA has been caught between the stressed, frustrated, and agitated victims of Alberta’s great disaster, the High River RCMP who are being policed by the people of the flood, and a government who is struggling to come up for air. The problem is the PCs know exactly what it would take to make these political problems go away. After all they had it modeled for them by Ralph Kline more than once while perpetrating the worst political blunders and walking away. The secret is a time honored formula that has unerringly stood the test of time from Julius Caesar in Rome to the present, its humble honesty. It is that great foundational objective moral value that governs commerce, trade and all relationships; the simple humble truth. Without the truth rumors, innuendo,
suspicion, and acrimony grip the relationships, with stress mounting that is exactly what we have in southern Alberta. Premier Redford all we need is a little honesty, but you go have your holiday in China, one of the last great bastions of socialism, where honesty and truth can still be a criminal offense. Doug Griffith again I ask you and the government, as one who believes in the rule of law, good governance, and moral excellence what is it I would be supporting in your PC government? Or perhaps you might ask Verlyn Olson if he has any ideas? Rob Johnson Daysland Support welcome My mom and I would like to thank all those who contacted us regarding our letters to the editor and the problems experienced at Big Valley Jamboree 2013. Your support has been awesome. We also want to thank The
Camrose Booster for printing those letters and allowing us to vent. The Camrose Canadian and The Edmonton Sun did not show the same objectivity; they did not print the letters sent to them. I find myself wondering if the Sun's sponsorship of BVJ had anything to do with that. I was asked if I wrote to Larry Werner. Yes I wrote to him asking to meet to discuss our concerns and possible ways to alleviate some of the security problems. My letter went unanswered. I am more than a little disappointed. I am asking all those who attended BVJ 2013 and have expressed the same concerns about the event to write to Larry Werner and the CRE organizers at 4250 Exhibition Drive, Camrose, AB, T4V 4Z8. Right now I am a lone voice expressing those concerns, and a lone voice is too easily ignored. Lori Blades, Camrose
Huge support for Bailey Theatre fundraiser By Lea Polny Photos by Shutterbug Photography
The results are in. The first Bailey Harvest Fundraising Festival was a resounding success. “Thanks to huge support from local businesses, volunteers and our patrons, we are proud to announce that the harvest event has raised more than $30,000 for our historic theatre,” says Kimberly Hann, fundraising chair and event organizer. The fundraiser was well attended by many local supporters, as well as a group of special Edmonton guests, including Stewart Roth and Susan Green who were being honoured for their significant donation. The icebreaker for the evening was a hilarious Minute to Win It game where audience members became contestants. Delicious hors d'oeuvres were served to the guests as the evening unfolded. “We were excited to use freshly harvested ingredients generously donated by local producers for Prairie Oven’s culinary offerings,” commented Marian Williams, Bailey board member. Emcee Danny Hooper took the reins for the main event, guiding the crowd through the high-energy live auction with his engaging brand of humour. The auction peaked with the Wild Card, where Danny invited the audience to offer addi-

tional items for auction on the spot. “We were thrilled with the seven wild card donations added to our live auction, that brought the Bailey close to $18,000 more,” says Judy McLean, Bailey board president. Wild card items included: two nights at Jasper Park Lodge, dinner and a Porsche to drive – donated
by Grant Ericksen and Go Auto; two WestJet tickets to anywhere in North America – donated by WestJet and Dave Majeski; two weeks in a golf course community in Phoenix, Arizona – donated by Bud and Gail Stuart; two weeks in a golf course community in Casa Grande, Arizona – donated by Doug and Diane Berg;
one week in Big Horn Meadows Resort on the Springs Golf Course, Radium, B.C. – donated by DeeJay Plumbing and Heating; a $1,000 shopping spree at Tish’s Fashions – donated by Tish Olsen; dinner and a movie for 16 at The Bailey Theatre – donated by Prairie Oven and The Bailey Theatre; The harvest event also included a silent auc-
tion packed with over 120 quality items generously donated by local businesses. “We plan to have a Bailey Harvest event again next year. Everyone enjoyed their evening and we are so grateful for the amazing support we received from so many donors. Watch for new things in entertainment at The Bailey Theatre in the coming year," said Judy McLean.

Q.
I know I need a financial plan.
Where do I start?
A:
A successful financial life is like ttaking a road trip: unless you know where you want to go, you’re not going w tto get there. Just like you would plan a trip, you should map out your finances. Realizing your financial dreams requires goals and a strategy for reaching them. For example, do you want to save and invest for retirement, buy a home, put money aside for your children’s education? Your long-term goals should be clearly defined and realistic. Nothing derails a financial plan faster than setting unattainable goals. The best way to clarify goals is by assigning them dollar amounts. When you know how much money it will take to reach your objectives, you can map out an effective savings and investment strategy. One good way to get where you want to go is by setting up a pre-authorized contribution plan to funnel cash into investments. Money will be transferred from a financial institution account to investments at regular intervals. It’s also a good idea to work with a professional. A financial advisor can help define your goals and strategy, as well as choose appropriate investments. Answer provided by:

Q. A:
I have scheduled a hearing test.
What should I expect?
M Many adults have not had a hearing test since ggrade school. Today’s hearing examinations aare designed to identify and diagnose even m mild hearing loss. After gathering a health h h h history, the hearing specialist will conduct an ear exam with an otoscope to check for obstructions, infections or other medical conditions that might affect hearing. If there is no medical reason for hearing loss, the hearing specialist will perform a series if tests, including an audiogram, to discover the cause of any hearing problem. The following list of questions may be helpful in gathering information 1. What kind of hearing loss do I have? 2. Is it medically treatable? 3. Should I see a medical specialist for my condition? 4. What are the results of my hearing tests? 5. Are there specific frequencies or types of sound that I have more trouble with than others? 6. Will I receive a copy of my audiogram and other test results? 7. What are my treatment options? 8. Is there anything I can do on my own to hear better? 9. Can I prevent further hearing loss? We encourage everyone to be alert to any signs of hearing loss in themselves or loved ones, and take the necessary steps to avoid further loss in the future. Answer provided by: Gina

Q.
How can I improve my breast health?
A:
Did you know: 1 in 9 Canadian women is expected to develop breast cancer in her llifetime, and an estimated 23,800 Canadian women will be diagnosed with Breast Cancer w tthis year alone. October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, so let’s take a moment to discuss the importance of breast health. Living well can reduce your risk of breast cancer. Practical ways to accomplish a healthier lifestyle include obtaining a healthy body weight, having a balanced diet, getting regular physical activity, quitting smoking, avoiding second-hand smoke and limiting your alcohol intake. Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer and the second leading cause of cancer deaths in Canadian women. Breast self-exams are an important step in early detection. Take the time to learn from a health care professional the best way to perform self examinations. During the month of October, we will be accepting ‘retired’ bras from the bottom of your lingerie drawer and donating $1 for every bra received to the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation – Prairies and North West Territories Division. We encourage you to visit us, donate your tired bras and let us assist you in finding a bra that can aid to keeping your breasts happy and healthy. See you in the fitting room!

Q.
How can I make my computer run faster?
A:
On a PC, the first thing you can ddo to get your computer running faster iis defragment the hard drive. As your computer installs new software A or ddownloads l d updates for old software, it puts these programs on the first available space on your hard drive. Defragmenting your hard drive will put these program components together in the same physical location on the hard drive, so when your computer goes to look for the information, it’s all in the same place. The next thing you can do is look at upgrading your hardware. Upgrading your RAM (random access memory) is a quick and relatively inexpensive way of instantly getting better performance from your computer. The other thing you can look at is upgrading your hard drive. You can likely get a hard drive that spins faster, so it can access your data faster, and has more storage space available. Hard drives are a little more expensive than RAM, but still a cost effective way of improving performance without having to invest in a whole new system. Answer provided by:

Q.
We’re considering a destination wedding. I’m th he ki kkind indd of person who wants the something really extraordinary and memorable for our celebration. Is this possible or are all destination weddings “cookie-cutter” packages?
A:
Whether you want something as a unique as a fire-dancer on the t beach or a comedian at your reception for your wedding r celebration, or a group bungee jump following the service, we can source the unique and unusual. Bear in mind these kinds of “extras” in tropical destinations cost much less than here in Alberta... Bonus! Some of our destination wedding couples are completely satisfied with very simple, family-only style celebrations and that’s absolutely okay with our professional wedding planners. Marlin agents, being the leaders in destination weddings, can give you solid, proven advice. Whether you want simple, or you want “out of this world”, come and see us. We’ve got ideas -- and connections!
Q. A:
Well, this is a very good qquestion what with hockey season jjust around the corner. First off, what exactly is a concussion? “A w concussion happens when a blow to the head or body such as whiplash, causes the brain to shake inside the skull” (Red Cross First Aid Manual, pg. 123) It is only a temporary condition that can lead to other complications in the future. A concussion can be mild or serious or somewhere in between. What you want to look for is if someone loses consciousness for a short period of time, the pupils are different sizes or patient says he blacked out or saw stars. The first aid is to call 911 and have the person move as little as possible. If patient is wearing a helmet, leave it on unless it is making it hard to ensure that the airway, breathing and circulation (the ABC’S of first aid) are present. Remember that bleeding inside the skull can happen slowly and that the symptoms could take some time to appear. Answer provided by:

I heard you can now engrave glass Murano Chamilia and Pandora beads... Is that correct?
A:
Absolutely! We’ve recently bought a revolutionary computerized engraving machine. Frankly, it’s unbelievable. It tackles typically engravable products - plaques, trophy plates, etc., but the really impressive feature is we can also now engrave glassware, brass, stainless steel and titanium items, as well as emboss real or faux leather. Not just flat surfaces either! We can place a perfect imprint on, say, a round Christmas ornament, or we could put something special on the shaft or head of a favorite golf club. Our hi-tech, computerized engraver can also perfectly transfer striking gold foil onto your personal possessions or gifts. We can do wonderful work on family Bibles, passport covers, wallets or diaries. Drop by for more information or to see our engraving/embossing samples. Answer provided by:

Hellbound?, a much anticipated feature-length documentary that explores today's highly contentious debate over the Christian doctrine of hell, is coming to Camrose. The documentary was written and directed by Vancouver-based screenwriter Kevin Miller, whose previous credits include the documentaries Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed with Ben Stein, Sex+Money, spOILed, With God On Our Side and several other projects. Hellbound? features interviews with an eclectic group of authors, theologians, pastors, social commentators, musicians, exorcists and some other high profile participants in the debate. "Throughout history, Christians have disagreed about pretty much everything," says Miller. "With every debate, particular doctrines become a litmus test to determine 'insiders' and 'outsiders.' That's certainly the case right now regarding the doctrine of hell. Hellbound? is my attempt to get to the bottom of the current debate, to find out why challenges to the traditional 'fire and brimstone' view are so contentious and to discover the implications of this dispute for Christians, as well as those watching from a distance." Miller has no illusions about the controversy this film might cause. "No matter what you believe about hell, this film is definitely going to push your buttons," he says. "But I see that as a healthy thing. Rather than just stir people up though, I hope Hellbound? will provoke informed discussion and get people to take a second look at the impact their religious beliefs have on the world at large." Following the screening there will be a panel discussion to help un-package the thoughts and issues that are sure to be provoked by the film. Sharing their insights and helping answer questions will be a panel of professors who each represent a slightly different perspective on the biblical interpretation of hell: Dr. David Goa, director of the Ronning Centre for the Study of Religion and Public Life, Dr. Eugene Boe, seminary dean, Lutheran Brethren Seminary, and Dr. Randal Rauser, associate professor of historical theology, Taylor Seminary. The panel discussion will be moderated by local pastor Rev. Greg Pietz, Resurrection Lutheran Brethren. Hellbound? will be shown at the Faith and Life Centre at Augustana at 7 p.m. on Thursday, Oct. 3. Tickets will be available at the door for $5. The evening is co-sponsored by a partnership including Augustana Campus Ministry, Ronning Centre, KAVA College Ministry, and CLBI.

Have you ever been to a concert where powerful and pulsing taiko drums have accompanied a classical chamber choir? Well, it does provoke the imagination doesn’t it? Pro Coro Canada’s artistic director Michael Zaugg wondered about the effect that might be achieved by incorporating Japanese drumming into contemporary classical repertoire, and came up with this exciting idea. He found works by well-known and innovative contemporary composers Veljo Tormis (Estonian), Eric Whitacre (American), and R. Murray Schafer (Canadian), then envisioned how the rhythms of the traditional Japanese drums might be incorporated to create an exciting and memorable sound experience for our audience. Michael contacted Greg Shimizu and Twilla McLeod of Booming Tree, Canada’s taiko duo, and put the project in motion. A Time for Everything will also present the world premiere of Canadian composer Kristopher Fulton’s The Twilight Cities – based on a Belgian graphic novel. Tickets will be available at the door.

The CAMROSE BOOSTER, September 24, 2013 – Page 31
Ray McIsaac hoping to build on momentum By Dan Jensen
Ray McIsaac wants to help build on the momentum created by Camrose City council over the last three years. "I think we have some things that still need to get done," said the councillor who will be seeking his third term in office Oct. 21. "There are some things happening in the City with which I would still like to be involved."
Ray McIsaac
McIsaac feels the City is in reasonably good shape financially. "Certainly there are areas of concern and areas that can be tightened up. The key is being able to get the best bang for our buck." McIsaac is encouraged by the possibility of new commercial developments on the east end and feels the new economic development strategy will be beneficial in attracting new businesses. "I am hoping that we start getting some positive feedback to that," he said. "We need to start giving businesses reasons why they should be here and let them know what we can offer that other centres cannot. There is a lot of ways to improve on what we are doing." McIsaac is interested in investigating an article which reported that an electricity deal made by Okotoks is saving the taxpayers of that community $450,000. "I want to find out what that is all about," he said. "If there is an opportunity that we can go down that road here then it is in our bests interests to do so. I will be talking to whoever to find out what the deal is and how that is done. Maybe it won't apply here but I am thinking if it saved some money in one city maybe it can do the same in another." McIsaac can see nothing but good things coming from the Cargill development. "There are going to be some revenues coming to the city from that," he said. "I am not sure what the spinoff from that will look
like but I would like to think that in the not too distant future there will be new opportunities that will have surfaced as a result of that. I think the project ties in well with our vision of becoming a stronger regional centre. It is good for the province and it is good for the city at large. They (Cargill) are going to be bringing in some highly qualified people who will be buying homes in our new residential subdivisions and living here for 25 to 30 years." McIsaac was pleased to see in the recent Ipsos Reid survey that showed 98 per cent of the residents of Camrose believe the quality of life that they enjoy is either good or very good. "We need to make sure that we are improving the quality of life," he said. "I always ask people why they decided to move to Camrose and the answer I usually get is the city's beauty and the abundance of services, including the hospitals, schools, medical facilities, golf course, walking trails and parks. There are a whole lot of cities that would give their eye teeth to have what we do." McIsaac will always remember a conversation he had with a couple of ladies shortly after moving to Camrose in the early 1970s. "The Max McLean Arena was still fairly new then and they were raving about what a beautiful city we had and how fortunate we are," he said. "I hadn't really paid much attention to those things before but after I started thinking about it I realized they were right. It made me think that you don't need to look outside Camrose, that we have ever y thing we need right here." McIsaac is proud of the protective services in the fire department, Camrose Police Service and EMS. "We should be proud of that," he said. "Even though some people say we are spending too much money on protective services I would rather that we erred on the side of caution." McIsaac isn't sure of the $50 million price tag that some people are associating with the new waste water treatment plant. "It might be $50 million if it is a mechanical system but I am not sure that it has to be mechanical," he said. "We may be able to go to a lagoon system instead, which would save a lot of money."

Baseball facilities high on community needs By Murray Green Now that the City started construction on a performing arts centre and City hall, it is time to turn the attention to the needs of youth. High on the priority list is a new swimming pool and some baseball diamonds. The city has a few ball diamonds for slowpitch and fastball, but has never built a baseball only diamond in Camrose. "Baseball is really popular and is expanding every year. Our problem is where do we put all of the teams and players," said Eric Burton of Camrose Minor Ball. "The closet thing we have to a baseball diamond is Harry Andreassen Field at Kin Park and it is used for soccer, football and slowpitch." As the baseball program grows, more coaches and facilities are needed. "Our learn to play program had 50 players, our rally cap program had 80 children. These are children learning before they get into the rookie program," said Eric. "We had about 50 players in rookie, another 50 in mosquito, 40 in peewee, 30 in bantam and we had enough players for a midget team." The baseball program had about 315 players this year. "If all of the rally cap, learn to play rookie and mosquito players stay in baseball, we will run out of diamonds to put them
on," said Eric. "My fear is that we have built the program to a high standard of fun and learning, and then we will lose players because they won't have places to practice. Where are they going to practice? Triple teams practice four or five times a week. We try to give our teams two practices. If you don't have practices on proper diamonds for the age group you could start to decline in teaching skills. You can't just practice on a school yard." Camrose is producing top double-A players that are picked up by higher level teams. "We don't want to lose those opportunities for our youth. It is a great learning experience," said Eric. "We would like to see a baseball facility because this is a baseball community. The Merchants and boys' fastball are gone. We should cater to what the youth want and that is baseball. The diamonds should have grass infields and proper mounds to pitch off of. We are at a disadvantage when we go to Red Deer, St. Albert, Okotoks or Sherwood Park where they have diamonds for each age group." Eric said the City could turn Kin Park into that because they have the facilities for that right now. "We could take one diamond out of commission every year to change it over. From a distance Kin Park looks like a wonderful facil-
ity. However, up close, it needs a ton of work because it has been neglected. It is like a bowl that absorbs water instead of having the proper drainage. It will take a bit of work, but the entire field should have weeping tile." Light showers shouldn't stop a game. "The field should be able to take a ton of rain and you should still be able to play ball in no time flat," said Eric. "We need four new diamonds. We want to start getting City council to look at this in the next couple of years." The other fear minor ball has is the fact smaller centres will start sending more players if they can't field a team in a certain age group. "I realize the City has budgets, but it is time that they looked at painting some bleachers and looking after the fields," said Eric. "A few years ago we needed a new ice facility and that happened. Now it is time for us to look at baseball fields. If we don't do something we could lose something that is pretty special to this community." If you build it, they will come. "A good facility would attract more players and we could become a performance (triple-A) area and produce some good ball players," said Eric. "We have to look at this sooner rather than later."
Wife, Mother, Grandmother, Great-Grandmother, Aunt, Sister, Friend and so much more Rebecca Christine Clark was born on August 10, 1943 in Lacombe, AB, the second in a family of five children. Becky started school in Lockwood, SK, moving up in grades quickly and continuing her education in Cadogen and Provost. She graduated from Grade 12 in Hughenden in 1960. Beck met Ronald Swanson that same year and in 1962 they married, settling in Fabyan. Through the years, they made many moves and added to their lives along the way. They were blessed with Shirley in 1963, Darlene in 1964, and Rodney in 1966. Beck and family finally settled in Camrose in 1979. Becky went to work at Woolworth’s, The Bargain Shop and Liquidation World. After working 23 years, Becky retired in 2004. Through the years, Becky became friends with numerous people. She always had time to talk and catch up on what was happening in their lives. While in Camrose, the children finished school and started lives of their own. Good times were had when grandchildren came along! Jeanine and Michelle were very important to their grandmother. Becky carried on tradition with having the “Word of the Day”. Everyone was expected to use the word correctly at least once. Later, there were great-grandchildren: Jeanine (Jason Broen) added Jordyn, Jenna, Jaxon and Jayda; and Michelle added Kendra to the family. For any birthday or special occasion, family could always be found at Becky and Ron’s home, celebrating and sharing good times. Becky enjoyed her trips to Vegas whenever the opportunity came along. Going more often was always better! Becky enjoyed reading and sewing. Many quilts and clothes were made with her special talent. When Becky was not reading or sewing, you could find her relaxing and talking with her cat. Becky was diagnosed with cancer in October 2011. She fought hard against it, but in May 2013, with failing health, she was admitted to St. Mary’s Hospital. She moved to Aspen Cottage in August 2013. Becky passed away peacefully on September 7, 2013. She was predeceased by her son Rodney in October 2007. She was also predeceased by her mother Sadie (George) Siegfried; sister Connie Tulloch; nephew Roger Clark; and sister-in-law Laurie Swanson. Becky is survived by her husband Ronald; daughters Shirley and Darlene; granddaughters Jeanine (Jason) Broen and Michelle; greatgrandchildren Jordyn, Jenna, Kendra, Jaxon and Jayda; brothers Terry (Vivian) Clark and Curtis (Elaine) Siegfried; sister Linda (Cliff) Hewett; three brothers-in-law Wayne (Linda) Swanson, Greg Swanson and Phillip (Holly) Swanson; two sister-in-laws Priscilla (Alex) Vass and Lynanne (Lloyd) Thunberg; and one aunt Hazel Colp. She also leaves numerous nieces, nephews and friends she knew throughout her life’s journey. Becky will always be remembered, loved and missed, but never forgotten.

In loving memory of
Ed Ferner December 30, 1940 – September 26, 2011 My Dad Was My Example There are many examples to follow in life Many men who are deserving of praise Whether doctors or lawyers or soldiers of war – They’ve given in so many ways. But of all the men who’ve accomplished it all Of all the great leaders we’ve had Not one will ever begin to compare With the example I’ve had in my Dad. He taught me his values, He raised me with love, He always showed me his respect And though his name may never appear in bright lights He’s one man you’d never forget. My Dad was my leader, My pattern for life, And on him, I could surely depend For I knew he would be there with arms open wide To be my example, my friend. Always remembered with love, Mary Ann, Scott, Shauna, Troy and families
In loving memory of
Doreen O’Brien If I had all the world to give, I’d give it, yes, and more, To hear her voice and see her smile And greet her at my door. But all I can do, dear Doreen, Is go and tend your grave, And leave behind tokens of love To the best wife God ever made. I like to think, when life is done, Wherever Heaven may be, That she’ll be standing at the door Up there to welcome me. Love, your husband Al and family

Camrose Kodiaks snuff out the Dragons' offence By Murray Green
The Camrose Kodiaks scored the first three goals to douse the Drumheller Dragons' offence on Sept. 14. Camrose came out with some heat of its own against the Dragons with all units firing as players attacked with a shorthanded marker, an even strength goal and a power play tally and then hung on to win 6-3 in the away contest. "That win felt really good. We have a lot of new young guys and the win boosts their confidence," said defenceman Josh Smith, who has also chipped in with three points. "It showed how we can become a team. We played to our full potential with hitting and skating. That's the kind of team we are, We have to work hard and hit to be effective. We are not going to be a fancy team." Goalie Devin McDonald was sharp in the Camrose net by stopping 36 of the 39 shots. Drumheller started with Steven Glass who turned away 12 of 15 and then Curtis Skip made 14 of 17 saves in relief. "It is not going to be 100 passes and then score. It is going to be dirty and it means getting greasy goals. That is how we are going to win," admitted Josh. "We have to step it up on the defensive side, me included, for us to be successful. Offence comes from a good defence and we have to provide that." The veteran with some Western Hockey League experience said he has been learning a lot this year. "I have been learning from my new roommate Devin Stener. It is a two-way street. I want to help offensively, but I want to get back and help my teammates as well. It is really important to help your teammates as

much as possible. We are paired on the ice and with billets. It is a good bonding experience, so you know your partner really well." Josh has learned a lot about playing better defence. "If you can't get out of your own end, it's hard to score. I have learned 100 million times more in the last two years here, then I have in the rest of my hockey. The coaches have given us the tools, now it's on our shoulders to make it happen." Although the Kodiaks won their first game, they are just two points out of a first place tie. "I have full confidence
that this team will rise and be a contender," said Josh. "I believe we can do it. It is up to us to keep putting the body on and keep shooting and driving the net. We are doing a lot of team building right now, so we all work together. We are becoming a tight knit group." The bonding will lead to success. "Even if we don't go somewhere, the closeness will be there in life and in the future," said Josh. "It's not just about hockey. We are going to have learning curves." Josh wants to keep playing hockey.
"I'm not sure what the future will bring. My goal is to continue playing hockey and where it takes me, I don't know." The Fort McMurray Oil Barons, the only undefeated team in the Alberta Junior League, survived a bad opening period to pull out a 4-1 victory at the EnCana Arena. Camrose out shot the Oil Barons 12-3 in the first period, but couldn't solve the goaltending of Tanner Jaillet. His stellar play sparked Fort McMurray to a couple of goals in the second. Jaillet was named the star of the game.
The Kodiaks picked up the pace in the third when Jody Sick scored, but it wasn't enough to earn two points. Goalie Matt Zentner started by making five of eight saves before McDonald came in to turn away 14 of 15 shots. Camrose Kodiaks play two games in Spruce Grove during the Showcase Weekend Sept. 26 to 28. They take on Drayton Valley and Bonnyville. The next home game for the Kodiaks is on Oct. 5 when the Okotoks Oilers are in the Rose City for a 7 p.m. match.
Augustana Vikings prepare for new hockey season By Murray Green
The Augustana Vikings are using the exhibition season to prepare themselves for the games that matter. The hockey team started with the changing of the guards. Dean Prpick was named captain to take over from the offensively talented Dan Hope. "It is an honour to be named captain and for my teammates and coaches to think of me like that," said Dean. "I want to pass on my work ethic. I'm not the most skilled player, but I pride myself on my work in the gym, at school and on the ice. I'm not the most vocal guy, so I try to lead by example. I hope my actions rub off on everyone else." Dean scored five goals and added eight assists as a defenceman last season. "Last year we had Dan Hope, who was a very talented player. He is the all-time
Vikings leading scorer. Now we don't have that offence. We have some skilled guys, but not like Dan. Our approach is to have four second lines this year that are going to work hard. It's exciting because if you're not playing well someone else is waiting to take your spot. There is a lot of pressure because we are so deep." The Vikings were put through the dry land paces on a hill run to get in shape last week. "We had a meeting after and it was decided that we have to be the team that shows up every night and outworks the other team," said captain Dean. Augustana won the league title two years ago, but had to settle for the bronze last year. "If we keep up our compete level and work hard we can compete for the championship again," continued
Dean. "We have to keep our composure and not get too excited. Last year we won game three (in the playoffs) and may have gotten too pumped up after. The important thing is to stay calm all year and not get too high or too low." The Vikings dropped a 5-0 decision to NAIT in Camrose on Sept. 18. Augustana squandered four power play opportunities in the contest. Joel Danyluk started in net for the Vikings and made 15 of 17 saves. Andy Williams turned aside 11 of 14 shots directed his way. SAIT and NAIT will be strong again this year. "It will be a really competitive league with Red Deer coming back in," said Dean. "They recruited well, so the Kings will be a good team as well." Red Deer beat SAIT 2-1 in exhibition play on Sept. 13.
"It's good experience to play games in preseason to get our timing and systems back," said Dean, who wants a longer playoff season next spring. "It has been a long off-season." The Alberta Colleges Athletic Conference regular season begins on Sept. 25 with the Red Deer Kings visiting the EnCana Arena to face the Vikings. Golf
The golf season takes the local swingers to Red Deer and Lethbridge prior to the provincials on Sept. 28 and 29 in Olds and the nationals in Quebec Oct. 15 to 18. Cross-country running

Vikings send top runners to Calgary By Murray Green
The Augustana Vikings sent a skeleton crew to the first grand prix cross-country running event of the season in Red Deer on Sept. 14. Augustana entered two female and two male runners as the rest of the team prepared for the SAIT event in Calgary on Sept. 21. "It was a windy and hot day, and the men's race was shortened by about 500 meters because of a course direction mishap," said assistant coach Robert Renman. "We are looking forward to sending a full team to Calgary." Taya Hoar and Brianna Schultz placed 27th and 39th in the college division in a field of about 80 runners that included open participants. On the men's side, Joedy Dalke and Ryan Lindsay crossed the finish line in 28th and 29th position against college runners. A total of 92 runners entered the event. Coaches Gerhard Lotz and Robert also entered the race. "It is important for us to place in the top five in the team events. Each team has four runners that count and we didn't have enough runners this time. It is something we are focusing on in Calgary," said Robert. "I'm happy with the team and this was a test race." Augustana has a younger team this year. "We are not as strong to start with because we did lose most of our top runners. We should come together by the time we host a race in Camrose," said Robert. Mariya Jenkins, of Concordia, was the top college runner with an even 20 minutes in five kilometres. Edwin Kaitany of Lethbridge won the men's event with a time of 24:03 minutes on the eight km course. The Vikings host the fourth event in Camrose on Oct. 12.

Dodge Ram Technology and features you won't find elsewhere
Mike Cuthbert By Dan Jensen
If you haven't yet seen the 2013 Dodge Ram 1500 at Camrose Chrysler, you're in for a pleasant surprise. "It's an entirely new truck with technology and features not offered anywhere else," said Camrose Chrysler sales manager Denis Mercier. The Dodge Ram 1500 is designed, engineered and executed to strike at the emotional chords of the "Guts and Glory" mindset of enthusiasts and potential buyers. In form and function it conveys boldness, valor, virtue and power-oriented capability like no other in its class." Powertrain
The award-winning Pentastar 3.6-litre V-6 engine delivers best-in-class fuel economy and substantial increases in power and performance. Horsepower is rated at 305 at 6,400 rpm, while torque is 269 lb.-ft. at 4,175 rpm. Nearly 90 per cent of the engine's peak torque is available from 1,800 to 6,400 rpm, an important consideration when towing or hauling a load. With 395 horsepower at 5,600 rpm and 407 lb.ft. of torque at 3,950 rpm, the 5.7-litre HEMI V-8 (Ram 1500 Tradesman Heavy Duty) can tow 11,500 pounds and handle a payload of 3,125 pounds. Fuel enhancing features with the HEMI include cylinder shut-off technology, which deactivates four cyl-
inders of the engine during light acceleration or cruising situations on the highway when full V-8 power is not needed. Additionally, VVT technology improves fuel economy by first reducing the engine's pumping work by closing the intake valve later, and second, by increasing the expansion process of the combustion event. This allows more energy to be transferred to the wheels instead of being lost out of the exhaust as heat. VVT also improves engine breathing, which improves engine efficiency and power. The new 8HP45 eightspeed automatic transmission is the new standard transmission for Ram 1500 with V-6. For HEMI V-8 equipped Ram 1500 models, the higher torque capacity version 8HP70 will be available in the first quarter of 2013. Owners will appreciate an innovative rotary e-shift dial for trucks equipped with the new TorqueFlite eightspeed transmission that replaces both column and floor shifters. The exclusive rotary e-shift enables intuitive operation with a direct and confident feel, even with gloves on. The convenient dash-mounted, easyto-understand and operate system provides total control of the sophisticated eightspeed transmission, and is Ram Truck's innovative
approach to electronic shifters already used in Class 6-8 trucks. Fully automatic, both the 8HP45 and 8HP70 transmissions feature on-the-fly shift map changing. More than 40 individual shift maps for very specific conditions optimize shift quality and shift points for fuel economy, performance and driveability. The intelligent software takes into account variables including engine torque gradients, kick down events, longitudinal and lateral acceleration, hill detection, friction detection and downshift detection to determine the appropriate shift map. Additional parameters integrated into the control strategy include vehicle speed control, electronic stability control interaction, and temperature. The result is automatic shifting ideally attuned to the performance requirements of almost any driving demands. Stop-start
Adding to industry firsts in a pickup truck is the application of stop-start, another fuel-saving feature available on select Ram 1500 models. This new system improves fuel economy by up to 3.3 per cent. Stop-start increases fuel efficiency by shutting the engine off when the truck comes to a complete stop. Amenities (radio, gauges, heating or air conditioning) continue to oper-
ate, making the operation transparent to the driver. The engine restarts automatically when the driver releases the brake, allowing seamless acceleration. Air suspension
The 2013 Ram 1500 is now available with an allnew air suspension system for optimum ride and aerodynamic performance. Another benefit to the new air suspension system is the load-leveling capability, which automatically detects load on the suspension from a trailer or payload. The air pressure increases until the vehicle reaches normal ride height, leveling the truck and improving the loaded ride. The new air suspension system features five height settings that operate automatically or may be controlled manually via console or key fob controls. Active Grille Shutters
The new Ram 1500 is the first truck to employ an active grille shutter system, which automatically closes the airflow through the huge grille when cooling is least needed. The system improves fuel economy by 0.5 per cent by reducing drag roughly three to five per cent, and improves warm-up time/defrost time. Interior
New features and technologies create an opportunity for a redesigned inte-
rior with material upgrades, improved fit and finish, allnew interior themes with different colours and materials, all-new HVAC controls and new multi-media systems. Rear seat occupants can enjoy the same quality, fit and finish as the driver. With points of contact a priority, new premium materials, colours and designs are now on all four doors. Softtouch materials enhance armrests and upper bolsters with expanded use of premium surfaces. The 2013 Ram 1500 features the next generation Uconnect system with background screens tailor-made to specific Ram models and themes. To make room for the new big screen, the centre stack is upgraded with matching materials found throughout the interior. The HVAC system includes a redundant architecture, allowing the operator to use either the touchscreen or manual controls to alter the truck's environment. Below the upgraded HVAC arrangement is a new switch bank with relocated, easy-to-use controls for a number of features depending on vehicle models and options. The centre console for both the bucket and 40-20-40 bench seat configurations is all-new with efficient storage in mind.

Many drivers will experience a flat tire at some point in their lives. Flat tires can be a nuisance, especially if a flat leaves you stranded on the side of an empty road with little opportunity for passing traffic to help you. Knowing how to change your own tire can keep you from sitting on the side of the road waiting for a tow truck or fellow motorist. There is no need to feel helpless when your vehicle gets a flat tire. Changing a flat tire is relatively easy and can take just a few minutes if you are prepared and know how to get the job done. 1. Turn on your emergency flashing hazard lights and pull the car safely over to the side of the road where you will not be in the path of traffic. 2. Try to find a level, stable surface so that the car will not roll. 3. Put the car in park and engage the emergency brake. Place bricks or wooden blocks under the tires on the opposite side to prevent the car from rolling. 4. If you have cones or flares, use them to make your vehicle more visible to fellow motorists. This can save you from being struck while changing the flat. 5. Connect the jack handle to the rest of the device. Slide the jack under a secure part of the car frame near the damaged tire. 6. Use a screwdriver to pry off the wheel cover or remove the hub cap to gain access to the lug nuts on the tire. 7. Use your tire wrench to find the side of the wrench that matches the size of the lug nuts. Turn the wrench counterclockwise to loosen all the nuts. Loosen them until they can comfortably be removed all the way by hand. 8. Use long strokes when pumping the jack to reduce the effort you have to put. Lift the car up until the wheel clears the ground. 9. Remove the lug nuts and store them in a safe spot until later. Grasp the flat tire with both hands and pull it toward you until it clears the ends of the bolts. Roll the flat to the rear of the vehicle. 10. Lift the spare tire into place and slide it in completely over the bolts. 11. Replace the lug nuts and tighten them by hand. 12. Carefully lower the vehicle and remove the jack. Tighten the lug nuts completely with the wrench. Then replace the wheel cover. 13. Put the flat in the trunk for proper disposal or repair later on. 14. Remove the blocks from your tires and disengage the emergency brake. You should now be ready to get back on the road.

Often drivers find that the seats or the mats below their feet are damp or downright sopping wet. But unless a window or sunroof was left open during a rainstorm, drivers may find it difficult to decipher why their vehicles are suddenly soaked. Unfortunately, when a vehicle's interior is wet, that could be a sign of a significant problem, one that can gradually worsen over time. Wetness can cause electrical

A clogged drain in a vehicle's heating, ventilation and air conditioning system is one of the more common causes of interior water damage. If the drain is clogged, condensation from the system cannot drain from the tube. In such instances, water backs up into the system and can actually blow out of the car vents or elsewhere in the vehicle, forming a pool on the floor of the car. Leaves or debris can cause a blockage. If excess water is left in the HVAC system, it can damage the blower motor. Also, a faulty seal that is located between the HVAC case and the firewall of the vehicle may cause water to leak into the passenger compartment under the carpet. In some cases, cleaning blocked drains in a vehicle's HVAC system may be as simple as blowing compressed air through the vents or using a wire to clear out leaves or dirt. Other times it may be hard to access the leaks, and such instances are often best left to a mechanic. It is important to figure out where the water is coming from early on to minimize the damage water can do to your vehicle.

Camrose poet Anne Lindgren wrote this 30 years ago in honour of Terry Fox. The annual Terry Fox Run was held in Camrose Sept. 15. A human candle once flickered and burned A lesson of love we all learned Step high with a step-hop-skip His Marathon of Hope must never stop. Four long years of cancer fought For a treatment they frantically sought He surrendered his defeated right leg Step-hop-skipped on a wooden peg.

Central Agencies Home of the Week
Bungalow nestled in quiet area
April 12, St. John's Newfoundland Very few people, no fanfare, no band Terry dipped his leg in the Atlantic Ocean Began a walk with a queer jerking motion. Across miles and miles of provinces His step-hop-skip convinced us Millions of homes and hearts he invaded His Marathon of Hope had not faded.
Matthew Mayer
A traffic hazard he was declared Hail pelted down, the hot sun glared Dodged all dancers with a step-hop-jump The wooden leg chafed sore on his stump. Wincing in pain, he proved a strange sight His features forged with fierce fight His slight body sagged with fatigue On that desperate road, league after league. With spiritual resolve, this crusader This curly-haired cancer invader Met the rugged hills of Thunder Bay But was forced to a halt that awful day. His determination was diamond-hard His lungs, too, with cancer were scarred His frail body stooped low with pain Terry returned to Coquitlam again. Antibiotics for chest infection Interferon and morphine injection To us, a legacy of courage he remitted To pain, his body submitted. Surrounded with true love that shone This flame of life faded in early dawn No more pain, no more woe or trial Terry step-skip-hopped his last mile. Join hands across the nation Stand as a beacon at your station Join hearts to finish his quest Stand tall, whatever the test. It was impossible only, until done Terry completed that impossible run His Marathon of Hope leads on and on Terry has died, but he is not gone.
