Council weighs in on bus issue

By Dan Jensen

City council weighed in last week on the decision by Greyhound to discontinue passenger bus service between Wetaskiwin and Camrose.

"This is a v ery significantly serious matter before our community," said councillor Max Lindstrand.

"One of the seniors who approached me likened it to being imprisoned in her city.

"She has to rely on taxis that are beyond her means to get out of the community for whatever reason, or rely on the benevolence of a neighbour."

Lindstrand questioned whether there would be any merit in adding the issue of inter-city transportation to the mandate of the Camrose Transportation Advisory Committee.

"At the present time I think the transportation committee is studying only matters within the community but we also now have an external issue and that is how do people get out of the community if they need to access medical appointments or even to go to the Citadel Theatre or anything else outside the community."

While Mayor Marshall Chalmers agreed with the need for inter-city transportation, he said the City cannot force anyone to step up to provide the service.

He also cautioned against giving the responsibility of intercity transportation to the transportation advisory committee.

"I know our economic development officer, Ray Telford, has been on the phones trying to find synergies in addressing this issue."

Councillor John Howard said the Camrose Social Planning Advisory Committee affirms the importance of residents without transportation to be able to get to other communities, but also affirms fairly strongly that it is

way outside the scope of a s ub committee of City council to tackle the problem.

"We believe that the transportation committee that we helped get formulated through SPAC is looking at transportation within the city of Camrose."

Howard added there isn't anything that should deter council through the City economic development officer and other resources from talking to private industry to get passenger bus service reinstated.

"Both Greyhound and Red Arrow have said that we are not a p rofit-making situation for them to continue to service Camrose. That is about the worst advertising we can get because I can't imagine anyone else in the private industry thinking that they can do better than Greyhound or Red Arrow."

Telford confirmed he has had meetings with various representatives from other communities and is investigating the possibility of whether a reg ional service might be profitable.

Lindstrand disagreed that the problem of inter city transportation is not a civic issue.

"If you look at it from an economic development perspective, I think it would have the potential of affecting a person's decision to move to Camrose," he said. "We can't just push it off the table. I think it is something we have to continue to pursue aggressively and see where the chips fall."

Greyhound's Wetaskiwin to Camrose route was one of 12 in northern and central Alberta that were cut Oct. 24 in an effort to reduce losses resulting from low travel. A re port in the Edmonton Journal indicated that between April 1, 2010, and March 31, 2010, the average passenger load for a C amrose-Wetaskiwin bus was just three.

Council considering end of library fees

By Dan Jensen

Membership fees at the Camrose Public Library could soon be a thing of the past.

Camrose City council approved a m otion at its Nov. 14 meeting to engage Camrose County in discussions about sharing a $19,000 library deficit that would be created if memberships were to be o ffered free of charge to all users.

Camrose Public Library currently offers free memberships to residents 17 years of age and younger, as well as those who are in need.

Councillor Gerry Galenza said it is time that the City stepped forward to help with membership fees.

"Here is a g reat opportunity to talk to our County counterparts to show some leadership."

Galenza added the $19,000 that is required is small in comparison to the City's overall budget of $50 million.

"Sometimes we get caught up in the small numbers."

Councillor John Howard said it always seemed strange to him, when he was on the library

board, t o call the library public when people were asked to pay to be part of it.

"Even though no one was denied a m embership because they couldn't afford it, there is a stigma that is attached to coming and asking for it in that way."

Howard also noted that eliminating the fee would provide an intangible benefit to the community.

Councillor Brandon Blatz said universal access to the public library is critical in maintaining true quality of life for the entire region.

Over the past few years, several public libraries in Alberta have eliminated membership fees. In 2002, a provincial survey indicated that 98 per cent of librarians were in favour of removing membership fees if provincial funding was sufficient.

Library board chair Anjah Howard told council that the library board would welcome the opportunity to do away with membership fees entirely.

"At this point we haven't established that in our budget because we weren't sure it would be supported," she said.

The Camrose Public Library currently has 6,585 registered members, with 77 per cent of those members being from the city of Camrose. The number of memberships is f ifteen per cent above what it was at this time last year.

Budget request

Camrose Public Library is requesting City funding of $448,777 for 2012, an increase of $15,477 over what it received for 2011.

"We believe this request is reasonable because we did not receive any additional funding last year and our actual budget is increasing by $57,021," said Howard.

The budget includes a n ew programming director who will be enhancing the programs that are available to the public, as outlined in the library's plan of service.

The library will be reducing its reliance on the City of Camrose IT department, which currently maintains all the computers and technology.

"Their work will be taken over by the Parkland Regional Library," said Howard.

Howard noted that while library usage is up, only 77 per cent of citizens are satisfied with what they experience.

"This is so mething we take extremely seriously," she said, "and we have already begun to make major changes to the library operations.

"We expect that when we are surveyed again next year the satisfaction will be much higher."

The library has applied for a Community Spirit Grant that will provide more Daisy readers for the visually impaired.

Organizations with which the Camrose Public Library collaborates to provide programs and services to local residents include Camrose Adult Learning Council, Family Literacy, Interagency Group, and Camrose Arts Society.

Renovations

Camrose Public Library will be undertaking a phase one of a major renovation project in January, pending approval of a CFEP grant application submitted in September.

"We have already lined up

all of our contractors to start as soon as we get news from the province," said Howard.

Phase one will include the public areas, while phase two, which is scheduled to be completed in 2012-2013, will focus on the work spaces.

Howard said the money that is being put into the library will make it possible for the library to be used for at least another eight years.

"Ten years ago we agreed that we would ask the City for a new facility even though our library is currently undersized, because we knew that you (council) had other capital projects that were going to eliminate the ability to fund a l ibrary within that ten-year time frame at least.

What we are hoping is that when you (council) get into your next phase of capital planning and you start looking at some other projects beyond the performing arts centre that you will be able to consider the library."

The library is hoping for a new facility seven years from now when it celebrates its 100th anniversary in Camrose.

PEN POINTS

by Berdie Fowler

Homophobia and bullying in schools Last week I w atched a CBC t elevision presentation of live interviews with students who had been the victims of bullying. It is an understatement to say that I was severely shocked as I listened to personal stories of abuse inflicted on students by their classmates. It seemed unimaginable that junior and high school youths could possibly be so mean and cruel to one another. So hateful and destructive was the abuse that the victims openly and emotionally revealed that they had contemplated and/or attempted suicide.

As we all know, some students actually succeed in snuffing (and/or sniffing) out their young lives. That is the extreme of serious and it is good to know that our country, our province, as well as our local public school division are all trying to do something positive to eradicate bullying in our schools and in our communities.

Who are the bullies and why do they bully? Studies tell us that usually a bully suffers from some personal frustration or difficulty, is him- or herself being bullied, has a poor or no role model at home, is abused and/or neglected at home, has fallen into the wrong crowd, or may have a condition causing antisocial or psychopathic behaviour. If the reasons for bullying are identified early, behaviour can been modified – unless the reason is a psychopathic personality for which society has no solution at this time.

Who are the targets of bullying? The students I saw on television seemed to be ordinary nice persons in every way including appearance and behavior. Studies tell us that most targets are those who are perceived to be non-heterosexual or who have samegender parented families. The reason they are targetted is that homophobic bullies think that being lesbian, gay, or bisexual is wrong and immoral and therefore not worthy of the same rights and privileges as others.

How are targets bullied? In many ways – verbal, social, physical and cyberbullied. False rumours and malicious gossip may be spread; they may be shunned, humiliated and intimidated; they may be punched and kicked and/or have property damaged; the Internet may be used to threaten, taunt, call names, comment on actual or perceived gender identity.

Bullying traumatically affects the victimized student. The stress created inhibits learning which leads to lower grades, higher absenteeism, perhaps behaving aggressively in retaliatory ways themselves, greater depression, and dropping out of school in an attempt to ease the pain. Sadly and shamefully, suicide has become the number one cause of death for sexual minority youth in North America.

Society has a collective duty to eliminate bullying. To achieve that we have to be open to learning more about sexual orientation – even those who have spent a lifetime thinking that to be nonheterosexual is immoral. A Government of Alberta paper entitled Bully Free Alberta, stated that “current research indicates that between 3-10% of individuals are non-heterosexual.” It further states that “Current scientific knowledge suggests that sexual orientation is usually established in early childhood and that heterosexuality and homosexuality are normal expressions of human sexuality ... there is no recognized scientific evidence indicating that parenting, sexual abuse, or adverse life events influence an individual’s sexual orientation.”

At this time, when many folks, including church congregations, are studying the subject of human sexuality and homophobia, it is helpful to remember that we once ridiculed the scientist who told us the earth was round. As new information is revealed to us, it is not wrong to modify our beliefs and our treatment of one another.

May we be open to learning and at least agree that bullying, homophobic or other, must stop. Each of us can be an influence to make it happen; governments and schools can’t do it without a supportive cultural ethos in the community.

I can not count the number of accidents that have occurred at the intersection of 51 Avenue and 48 Street. On November 9, 2011, there was another accident. This one was between a truck and a taxi cab. From what I was told, the taxi cab was travelling north on 48 Street. A truck heading west on 51 Avenue ran the stop sign. The taxi cab had no other choice but to T-bone the back end of the truck.

I have seen other accidents at this intersection and it seems that nothing has been done to make this intersection safer.

There is a sig n up warning this intersection as a dangerous one.

Is there more that the City can do to help make this intersection a safer one? I believe a set of lights would be the best solution.

I know what people are going to say. They will say that if we put a set of lights in front of every difficult intersection we would have a h uge number of lights downtown. I noticed that at the intersection of 48 Street and 50 Avenue where an elderly lady ran through and drove into the basement of the library is a stop sign posted in the middle of the road coming into that intersection. There seems to be no more major accidents at that intersection.

Whether it is lights or a similar stop sign that is at the other intersection, something has to be done! Maybe someone

on the City council has a better solution? I w ould love to have someone from there write in and explain what their plans are to solve this problem.

Remembrance Day has just passed us by. We are so lucky to have all those who gave their lives for our great country. Now, there might be a few problems that we as Canadians face. However, no matter how deep or important they are, we are so fortunate to live in a country that has given us the many rights that we have today. Many people live in a world that they do not have any rights. M any are beaten and killed without just cause.

I would really encourage us as Canadians to be thankful for all the blessings that we as a nation enjoy. As I h ave always said, "No matter what you are facing today in your life, it could always be worse."

Canadian Tire announces new store

Canadian Tire Camrose dealer Dave Jewell will start the move to a new store in March.

By Dan Jensen

Five years after he started lobbying the corporation for a new store, Canadian Tire Camrose dealer Dave Jewell is finally getting his wish.

Canadian Tire has purchased the Zellers building from Duggan Mall and will be starting renovation/construction process on March 1, 2012.

A soft opening will be held in September, 2012, followed by an official opening one month later.

"This is a h uge relief," said Jewell. "The Canadian Tire team and our customers have waited for this for a long time."

Canadian Tire has been at its current location on the west end since opening in Camrose in 1984.

The only change to the building over the last 24 years has been an expansion which occurred in 1998.

"I don't have any qualms about saying that the current store is very tight," said Jewell, who will rent the new store from Canadian Tire. "We're in a

catch-22 situation now where if we don't bring in the merchandise we don't have it for the customers but when we do bring it in we have limited space."

The new store will be built according to Canadian Tire's Smart Store concept, one that features creative displays to showcase the company's heritage businesses – automotive, sporting goods and tools.

"We're going to have 42,000 square feet of retail, which is three times the amount of retail we have in our current structure," said Jewell.

The store will also have eight service bays on the northwest corner (the same as the current one), and an 8,000 square foot garden centre (also the same as the current one).

The new store will be able to house 45,000 different products.

"It's going to provide a much more welcoming shopping environment with wider aisles, which has been a so re point for a l ot of people for a long time," said Jewell.

"I'll be able to display all my barbecues, lawnmowers and patio sets inside."

Jewell said the new store will be a way for him to say thank you to the customers from the city and county of Camrose.

"We are going to be able to reward them for the loyalty they have shown."

Jewell estimates he will need 60 staff over and above the 40 he has at the current location to merchandise and stock the new store.

"Once we open we will probably need 80 staff to run it on a day to day basis," he said. "We will advertise the additional positions so that local area residents can apply for them."

Canadian Tire hasn't decided what it will do with the current store when the move to the new location takes place but is exploring different options.

Jewell said the new Canadian Tire store will provide customers with a o ne-stop destination to find everything they need for their home, car and leisure activities.

Roles for advocates, road safety highlight fall agenda The Alberta government outlined its plans for the fall legislative session proposing a number of key changes that will increase the transparency and accountability of government operations and the electoral process.

"The legislation we are bringing forward is a direct response to addressing Alber-

tans’ needs," said Premier Alison Redford. “This includes establishing an independent advocate for children, making our streets safe, and giving the Health Quality Council the tools it needs to establish an independent inquiry into health care.”

Government House Leader Dave Hancock added, “In addi-

tion to bills that will enhance transparency in government, we will be introducing legislation to discourage drinking and driving, and encourage greater personal responsibility when behind the wheel. We are responding to the concerns of landowners with amendments to the Land Assembly Project Area Act, and intro-

ducing a b ill to establish fixed election dates.”

Changes will also be proposed through the Justice and Court Statutes Amendment Act to make minor amendments and housekeeping changes to a number of statutes that will help improve the efficiency of Alberta’s courts and increase

clarity to Justice legislation.

The Appropriations Act, which deals with funding for Slave Lake, as well as the Premier’s restoration of $107 million to Alberta Education will be introduced.

The fall sitting of the Alberta Legislature resumed November 21.

Friday, Dec. 2

✁

Open Fridays until 8 p.m.

A wine appreciation night will be hosted by the Bailey Bistro in conjunction with the showing of the movie Sideways.

You can enjoy the wine-themed movie while sampling some fine California wine and complimentary hors d'oeuvres. "This gives people an opportunity to do some wine tasting and take in a go od show," said Bailey Bistro manager MaryAnn Lepers. "We hope to have some wine tasting on a monthly basis."

The movie on Thursday, Nov. 24, at the Bailey Theatre is from the same director, Alexander Payne, as Election and About Schmidt. The 2004 movie Sideways is about two men who reach middle age with not much to show but disappointment.

They embark on a week long road trip through California's wine country, just as one is about to take a trip down the aisle.

Miles Raymond is a failed writer and divorcée who teaches junior high school English. He takes his best friend, former hot actor Jack, on a trip. They explore the nature of their failures and question their relationships. Jack, about to get married, has an affair with a woman and wonders whether he should call off his wedding. Miles questions whether or not he made the right choice while trying to form a relationship with the woman's best friend, who is a waitress at a restaurant that he frequents often when visiting that part of the country.

The maitre d'/barista for the evening will be David Arial. Doors open at 6 p.m. and the movie begins at 7 p.m. The admission is $17, and includes two glasses of wine. No minors are allowed.

Kotyk donates winnings

Camrose NeighborAid program director Pat Hagen (left) and assistant program director Jo-Anne Tweed (right) accept the donation of a $100 gift card from Camrose resident Candy Kotyk.

By Dan Jensen

It didn't take long for Candy Kotyk to make the decision that she wanted to donate the $100 Safeway grocery card that she won in The Camrose Booster's weekly grocery give-away to Camrose and District Food Bank.

"I knew they needed a little bit of help," said Kotyk.

Kotyk purchased pork chops and chicken for the food bank from Safeway after she read in the newspaper that the food bank's meat supplies were getting low.

When she went to deliver the meat she noticed that the food bank's freezers were nearly empty.

"There was just a little bit in the corner," she said.

After making her delivery, Kotyk returned home, where she received a call from a Camrose Booster representative informing her she was a winner.

Pat Hagen, program director for NeighborAid, which oversees the Camrose and District Food Bank, said the donation is appreciated.

She added that the Food Bank has been receiving more meat products in the last little while.

"We have been told by Alberta Fish and Wildlife that they have a moose and a deer for us, and that the deer is being processed over in Wetaskiwin."

The Food Bank will also be receiving a cow once the meat processing has been completed in Tofield.

Camrose Food Bank primarily serves those who are working at low paying jobs and receiving AISH payments from the provincial government.

"We have 200 people that come in a month, which is lower than it was at the height of the recession," said Hagen.

"That's a stable number for now but we would like to see it go lower."

Aboriginal students of High Velocity become role models

By Murray Green

A group of Hobbema students who are in the High Velocity Equipment Training (HVET) in Camrose want to make a difference in their community.

The heavy equipment training was funded by the Ermineskin Cree Nation. Several First Nations students from the Hobbema communities in Northern Alberta have recently graduated from a skills upgrading program. “These aboriginal heavy equipment operators will return to their communities as muchneeded role models,” said Evan Morin, a g raduate of HVET three-week bulldozer course from the Ermineskin Band in Hobbema.

Evan will be returning to the public works department with more skills. “The negative issues that surround our community fall on our leaders, our parents and the response we get from our youth,” said Evan. "I w ould encourage the youth of the four nations of Hobbema to further their education by taking up a trade, such as heavy equipment operation.”

HVET marketing director Barbara Bonnough said, “High Velocity Equipment Training was very popular at the National Aboriginal Business Opportunities Conference (NABOC) this year because we are the only full-length (12-week) certified

Camrose High Velocity Equipment Training students, from left to right, Kevin Larocque, Randy Carlton, Arnie Brewer, Jack Defoort and Loren Boucher successfully completed a 12-week course on operating heavy machinery.

heavy equipment training program that focuses on aboriginal youth. We are the only training college delivering safety and operational cross-training on five machines in the community for First Nations youth. We bring everything – our instructors, curriculum and equipment – r ight to the First Nations community to build an actual project in the community with student labour.

When we do this type of remote training; the funders, industry, employers, students and the community all benefit. It's hard work and difficult to coordinate but it is very rewarding when everyone wins”.

Joining Evan in the recent skills-upgrading program was Alan Simon, with a front-end loader course; Erik Smallboy, with a three-week excavator course; and Dion Littlechild with a six-week grader course.

High Velocity Equipment Training gives people an opportunity to further enhance their education. "We, as adults, must reach out to the youth. We must offer some hope for them to respond positively to, and by doing so we can impact their lives and lead them in a s traight path," said Dion. "By following role models, they are also encouraged to be

role models themselves. Today’s leaders are tomorrow’s consequences.”

HVET office manager Deborah deJong said, “We are proud of our great reputation because we work in communities where sometimes three-quarters of the population is unemployed and we can place 89 per cent of our graduates in jobs paying an average of $71,000 per year. So this means our graduates don’t have to accept minimum-wage entry level jobs.”

Joining the HVET management team in October, First Nations Liaison Dion Arnouse is very familiar with the challenges

that face Hobbema and other Aboriginal communities. He is retiring from a 2 2-year career in the RCMP, and has enjoyed his experience in forestry and oil and gas industries. Dion brings great experience and enthusiasm in helping First Nations youth.

“As a t een growing up on Reserve, I was fortunate enough to have someone inspire me to the point where I was able to see the opportunities in pursuing a successful career. The inspiration came at a time where my life could have taken a very different turn.”

He considers himself fortunate to have spent his entire career as a police officer working with First Nations communities.

“I u nderstand t hat with the current resource driven economy in Alberta and British Columbia, industry is increasingly utilizing impact-benefit agreements with First Nations, which include employment provisions with local bands. This Industry is d riving up demand for properly trained First Nations community members who possess the skills to make it in today’s trades, and our youth need to hear that there are great employment opportunities and jobs they can be proud of that make a difference in the lives of their families, and that they can make a difference in their community.”

The members of the Grateful Grannies will host a fun-filled afternoon at the Bailey Theatre on Sunday, December 4, from 2 to 4 p .m. The afternoon is o pen to the public and the members at a cost of five dollars each. The Grateful Grannies invite you to come and enjoy a couple hours of conversation, live music, browsing the craft sale and savoring the refreshments. The craft sale will include the popular Christmas AIDS angels and cards, children’s CDs, and handcrafted jewelry. In addition, there will be several items donated by local artists. Rajan Rathnavalu (piano) and Maya Rathnavalu (violin) will share their musical talents.

Coffee and refreshments will be available and wine can be purchased.

The Grateful Grannies are comprised of grandmothers and grand “others” from Camrose and area who are committed to supporting the Stephen Lewis Foundation’s Grandmothers to Grandmothers Campaign. Agnes Hoveland, chair of the Grateful Grannies, said, “Our group began in 2010 and has grown to over 90 members. We would be happy to tell you more about the group and welcome new people to join.”

The Grateful Grannies are one of over 240 grandmother groups across Canada which raise funds to assist grandmothers in sub-Saharan Africa as they care for a generation of orphaned grandchildren and others affected by HIV/AIDS. Over 11.6 million children have been orphaned

by AIDS on the continent. The African grandmothers, despite their hardships, have become the heart and the energy behind the response to the pandemic.

The proceeds from the gathering and market will go to support the Stephen Lewis Foundation’s Grandmothers to Grandmothers Campaign.

“We are excited about having several other grandmother groups from central Alberta joining us at the market,” stated Mardell Olson, chair of the gathering committee. “They will be bringing their wares to sell. It will also give our members a chance to meet others who are working in neighboring communities towards the same goal.”

For more information or to donate a h andmade item to the sale, contact Marian Williams at 780-672-1711 or Mardell Olson at 672-8057.

Just when the fans were thinking the Camrose Kodiaks were digging themselves out of a bad slump, the team was stampeded by the Calgary Mustangs 5-1, Nov. 15.

Calgary jumped on the Kodiaks using special teams with a shorthanded and a power play goal in the first period. The Kodiaks cut the lead in half on a N elson Gadoury power play tally in the second. However, all comeback attempts were dashed when the Mustangs rode high on the strength of three markers in the last period. "We out- played them the first two periods, but we didn't bury enough of our chances," said Nelson. "In the last 10 minutes, we had a collapse.

Now, they are tied with us for second place and that's what really hurts. It's a tough pill to swallow right now and we just have to get back on track."

Camrose goalie Brayden Hopfe stopped 27 of 32 shots, while the Kodiaks had 34 shots on the Mustangs. "We have some really good leaders on this team.

When we start playing down or gripping our sticks too tight, they step up and take the lead by having a big shift for us."

The line of Nolan Marshall, Rylan Wiest and Ty Clay continue to sparkle with high energy, but it wasn't enough to change the outcome against Calgary.

"They work so hard for us and it shows the rest of us that we have stopped working," said Nelson.

"The difference between the first 10 games of the season and the last 10 games is the fact we have stopped out-working other teams.

We have stopped using the system. We have to get that back from everyone."

The loss meant that the Kodiaks were relegated to watching scary movies. "We watched some video of the game. We are

talking about what we did wrong and how we can correct those things. We want to fix them before it is too late."

Nelson doesn't think the other teams are catching up. "It is more of a case that we lost our drive. Now teams want to beat us more because they know we are struggling. They want to take advantage of us."

Nelson's name has been showing up on the score sheet lately. "The points have been coming my way, but it doesn't feel as good when you are not winning," he said. "I want to keep scoring and help the guys. Staying positive helps everyone else."

The forward from Calahoo played for Kodiaks' assistant coach Blair Becker in the Alberta Cup. "We were not supposed to win, but he did such a great job coaching that we won the cup.

Then he asked me to come to the Kodiaks' spring camp."

The Camrose Kodiaks doubled the Calgary Canucks 4-2 with Gadoury garnering two goals to lead the bears on Nov. 12.

Jonathan Lashyn and Connor Mailey chipped in with single markers. Camrose built up a 3-0 lead and hung on despite a bad se cond period where they were out-shot 10-4. Goalie Matt Gibney made 17 of 19 saves for Camrose.

The Canmore Eagles continue to soar against the Kodiaks.

They defeated Camrose 6-3 in a game to forget on Remembrance Day. Lashyn scored two goals, while Ty Clay added a tally in the contest. Canmore scored three in the second frame to make the difference in the contest. Gibney stopped 23 of 28 shots in the Camrose net.

The final home game of the month for the Kodiaks is on Nov. 25, when the Grande Prairie Storm return to the Edgeworth Centre.

Stay safe in the cold

Extreme temperature changes can be dangerous to the senior set. Here are some safety precautions to take whether seniors are venturing outdoors or simply winterproofing their homes.

Around the House

* Keep the thermostat set to at least 19 C to prevent hypothermia. Do not use the oven to provide heat in the house. * If possible, pay a service or neighbor to shovel snow or plow the driveway. If you are forced to shovel, take frequent breaks.

Listen to your body and rest if you're tired.

Outdoors

* A b roken bone can be a very traumatic injury for a senior.

Always wear shoes with rubber treads for traction. If you rely on a walker or cane, make sure the rubber tips are in good working order.

Women's volleyball squad improves weekly

By Murray Green

Although the Augustana Vikings women's volleyball team was swept by the SAIT Trojans, they show signs of improving in the Alberta Colleges Athletic Conference.

Captain Catherine Laskosky, of Camrose, feels the team is within reach of most clubs. "We have some little things to work on a s we strive to be on the same level as other teams," said Catherine.

"Right now, we are in a cycle that we get up for the first and second games, but lose our intensity in the third game. The games are played to 25, but we can't look ahead so much. We are breaking the game down into five points at a time. We want to push hard for three games and then, ultimately, four or five games."

She said the team needs to take baby steps. "If you break it down into little steps, then it becomes more manageable. Right now, we are so c oncerned about getting that first game that we are not looking further ahead. We are going to break it down step by step. We have the skill, we just need to show it on the court."

Since the skill set is in place, the Vikings are focused on the mental game. "We are looking at what aspects of the game we can bring to the game to improve mentally. We need to prepare ourselves better for the matches. We know we have a win in there (last few matches before the break), it is a matter of learning what it takes to achieve it."

The Augustana men's team knocked off the previously unbeaten SAIT team. "We watched the

guys achieve what we want to do.

It is kind of following the steps of a big brother. We see them succeed and it just makes us hungrier to win even more," said Catherine.

"They have the passion and cockiness to win and that is what we are working on. We have to better ourselves personally and as a team."

It may take some time, but Augustana wants to be near the

top of the league, like they were in the Alberta Colleges Athletic League prior to joining the ACAC. "We are working to the future, but that doesn't mean we are not focused on what we are doing now," said Catherine. "We feel that the team can pull a couple of wins.

We need to set a s tandard and build from there. Eventually the team will be in the playoffs and the finals."

Most of the members on the volleyball team are making the adjustment from high school to the college level game. "The speed of the game is so much faster. All rookies have to learn that the speed is different in both practices and in games," said Catherine.

"The skills are also being fine tuned at the college level. In high school, you just show up for practice. Here, you go to gym workouts

and classroom sessions. And, it just isn't two months, it is for the whole year. It is a lot more of a commitment."

With some local players on the squad, the crowd has been behind the team as they improve.

"We all get along, and the parents do as well. It is like a big family."

Augustana hosts NAIT on Nov. 24. The women's match begins at 6 p.m.

ranked SAIT Trojans. Especially after the Trojans swept them in three games the night before.

Augustana players must have reviewed the story about a wooden horse being pulled through the gates, because they ambushed SAIT right from the first whistle on Nov. 12. The

Vikings didn't just beat SAIT, they dominated them in three straight games (2 5-19, 25-23, 25-20).

Players Cole McCartney and Thomas Regier said the timing was right. "We came into the weekend knowing we could win. We went down there and

struggled, just didn't play well," explained Cole. "We watched the video of the match and the way that they played. We made adjustments and with the games at home, we know we could beat them. We stuck to our game plan and they fell apart."

The Trojans were shocked at the way the Vikings came at them in the rematch. "In the first match, we played as individuals and not as a t eam. We came at them as a t eam in the second match and the crowd was behind us," said Thomas. "They were shocked to lose."

It was the first loss of the season for SAIT. Coach Ryan Marsden said to SAIT media, “I think maybe it was good for this to happen at this point in the season and there were a few who were starting to walk with that swagger, thinking we were indestructible, and we didn’t want to see that.

This was a good wake- up call.”

Knocking off the top club has given the Vikings the confidence they were lacking. "The three teams we have played so far this season are all in the top four in the league," pointed out Cole. "We have stayed with the best teams and have had challenging games.

To have those challenging games right from the gate will make us a b etter team. To get a w in off of Mount Royal and SAIT really goes to show we can play against anybody. Now we need to take that confidence into the other matches."

The mental part of the game is huge in volleyball. "This gives us the edge in confidence, because

we know we can play with the top teams," said Thomas. "We know that we can be at the top of this league and the added confidence can help us in other matches."

The team has made strides in improving. "Every year we get better. Last year, we pretty much had a whole new team. We didn't know what to expect and we went 3-17. Now we know what it takes (the team is currently 2-4) and we will keep improving."

Thomas said, "It makes us (rookies) excited because the team is really improving and we get to be a part of a team that is on the rise. The veterans help us and have made us really feel welcome and part of the team."

Both players praised the coaches for bringing the level of play higher this year. "The coaches are amazing and they give little tips that help us a lot," said Thomas.

Both players have plenty of club and provincial experience.

"The biggest adjustment is balancing volleyball with the university studies," said Cole. Both players want to stay in sports once they leave Augustana.

Thomas said the difference between the best team and Augustana is the number of errors made. "Sometimes you don't have time to think, you just have to react."

The Vikings are trying to set a game plan and stay with it to find success. It worked against SAIT, now they are focused on NAIT. Augustana hosts NAIT on Nov. 24. The men's match begins at 8 p.m.

Australian born cellist, Tanya Prochazka, will join Polish pianist Magdalena Adamek in a recital of Brahms, Chopin, and Liszt at Augustana Campus on Sunday, Nov. 27, in the Faith and Life Chapel.

The recital is scheduled to begin at 3:00.

Cellist Tanya Prochazka is no stranger to the Augustana stage, having performed solo recitals there as well as collaborative recitals with Augustana's Dr. Milton Schlosser, piano and Professor Kathleen Corcoran, soprano.

Born in Melbourne, Australia, Ms. Prochazka pursued her advanced cello studies at the Paris Conservatoire with Andre Navarra and in Bloomington, Indiana, with Janos Starker, before proceeding with a career in international performance and teaching. She has performed throughout Europe, the Middle East, Southeast Asia, and Australia.

Since arriving in Edmonton in 1986 and becoming Professor of Cello and Conductor of the University Symphony and

Academy Strings Orchestras at the University of Alberta, she has become one of Canada's leading cellists. Highlights include a Carnegie Hall recital, world premiere performances of concertos by Alfred Fisher and Malcolm Forsyth, performing string quartets in the natural concert halls of the Grand Canyon, and leading a v ery successful tour of Cuba with the Academy Strings Orchestra. Sh e is a recording artist with several of her own CDs, and has collaborated on CDs with Dr. Schlosser and Professor Corcoran. She is an awardwinning performer, gathering prizes at such prestigious competitions as the Tchaikovsky Competition in Moscow, the Cassado Competition in Italy, and the International Tribune in Czechoslovakia.

Dr. Magdalena Adamek, from Poland, holds a M aster of Arts in Piano Performance from the Frederick Chopin University of Music in Warsaw, as well as Doctor of Music in Piano Performance from the University of Alberta, under the super-

vision of Dr. Jacques Després.

She has been a re cipient of numerous prestigious awards at competitions in Poland and at the University of Alberta and, among others, a sch olarship from the Polish Ministry of Culture and National Heritage (awarded twice). She has also been a laureate of the second prize and a special distinction for the best performance of piano works by Frederick Chopin at the International Milosz Magin Piano Competition in Paris. She represented Poland at the II European Piano Forum in Berlin.

Adamek's discography includes five CDs for an independent Polish label as well as a recent CD project, Romantic Central Europe, made in collaboration with the Wirth Institute of Austrian and Central European Studies at the University of Alberta. Between 2006 and 2011, she taught piano and chamber music at the University of Alberta's North Campus.

Tickets may be purchased at the door the afternoon of the recital.

Remembrance Day is a time to honour those who served

By Murray Green

On the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month and the 2011th year, Remembrance Day was observed by a f ull house at the Camrose Regional Exhibition.

The Camrose branch of the Royal Canadian Legion saluted not only those who served in both world wars, but also those who were in conflicts such as Korea and Afghanistan. "Our veterans have fought to give us freedom to enjoy. They gave peace to far away lands and to ensure a b etter future for our children and grandchildren," said Lt. Steven

Vanmuyen of the Lord Strathcona Horse (Royal Canadians). "We are grateful for our veterans. As our commitment in Afghanistan comes to a close, we salute a whole new generation of veterans. During Veterans' Week, we honour all veterans for their contributions towards peace and stability in the world. Canada has a s trong legacy around the world. It has a reputation of keeping peace and stability and being proud to serve.

We remember the sacrifices made for Canada. We encourage Canadians to celebrate the past and commit to the future. Part of that

commitment is to remember and show our respect. If you pass a veteran, stop him or her and ask a few questions and listen to the answers."

Alberta Justice Minister Verlyn Olson thanked everyone for taking in the service and making sure the parking lot was full. "It is great to have so many young people involved in the service today," said Mr. Olson. "I want to suggest that the veterans do a l ot more in the community. They continue to serve today to make this community better. They are a g reat example for all of us. I hear today

that everyone has rights. This is a great event for us to stop and contemplate the other side of that equation. The other side is responsibilities, discipline, self-sacrifice and service. Examples of that are easily found in our veterans."

MLA Olson encouraged everyone to be more like our veterans. "We can fight for freedom and justice. No matter where we are, whether it's around the corner or around the world, we can serve.

We can serve those in our community who need help and we can speak up on their behalf."

He quoted from Anne Frank.

"How wonderful it is that nobody needs to wait a single moment before starting to improve the world." Mr. Olson challenged everyone to serve others.

After the laying of wreaths, people clapped in appreciation during the parade and march past of local veterans to end the service.

In a c utline for a R emembrance Day picture last week it should have read: A m ember of the Lord Strathcona Horse (Royal Canadians) stood on guard at the cenotaph.

Ford Ranger A combination of fuel efficiency, flexibility and affordability

By Dan Jensen

The 2011 Ford Ranger at Lamb Ford Sales Ltd. in Camrose combines Ford's tough-truck heritage with fuel efficiency, affordability and flexibility in a small pickup that's big on value.

Rangers equipped with the 2.3 litre four-cylinder engine offers estimated fuel economy of 7.3 litres per 100 km highway and 9.5 litres per 100 km in the city.

"It's fuel efficiency is best in the class of compact pickups," said Lamb Ford Sales sales manager Brett Read.

The available 4.0 litre V6 engine, standard on Ranger SPORT and XLT kicks out 207 horsepower and 238 lb.-ft. of torque.

Total towing capability for the Ranger's 2.3 litre and 4.0 litre engines is 979 and 2,630 lbs. respectively.

Both engines come standard with a five-speed manual transmission and are available with a smooth, durable five-speed automatic transmission.

Well-equipped

Ranger is available in regular cab and SuperCab configurations. The segment's only seven-foot box is available as a fleet option on the XL regular cab model. XL and XLT 4x2 and 4x4 series are equipped with stylish standard wheels and tires, while a Class III trailer hitch is standard across the line.

The lower front bumper valance has an integrated one-inch air deflector to help reduce drag and improve fuel economy. Large fog lamps provide excellent visibility and tougher appearance.

XLT models features body-colour front and rear step bumpers and a chrome H-bar grille that is standard on 4x2 setups for a bolder look.

Sport SuperCab trucks offer standard step bars, while the Sport SuperCab 4x4 is equipped with standard skid plates to protect major components at the front, middle and rear of the truck's underbelly.

Ranger 4x4s live and breathe serious capability.

Select the ideal drive on the available electronic shift-onthe-fly 4x4 transfer case without stopping – simply by turning a switch.

Also available to up your go-anywhere potential: heavy duty shocks (standard on SPORT and XLT) and as many as three skid platges (fore, mid and aft). No wonder Ranger is a favourite at the Best in the Desert Racing Association series, where Ford rules as official truck.

The FX4 off-road package on Ranger Sport models includes 4.10 limited slip 8.8 inch rear differential, 16-inch Y-spoke cast aluminum wheels, FX4 decal, black side step bars, cloth bucket seats, privacy glass, power equipment group and tilt steering with cruise control.

Loaded

The Ford Ranger XLT cabin is loaded with more than ergonomics. On top of the leather-wrapped steering wheel with tilt and cruise control, you get this XLT exclusive: fully carpeted flooring with matching carpeted floor mats up front.

Rear jump seats are standard on all SuperCab

Safety and security

Ranger provides high levels of safety and security via the Ford Personal Safety Matt McLeod System, AdvanceTrac with RSC, seat-mounted side airbags, tire pressure monitoring system, and SecuriLock passive anti-theft system, all included as standard equipment on all models.

AdvanceTrac with RSC delivers a level of performance that competitive stability control systems can't match. Unlike competitors' systems, AdanceTrac with RSC utilizes a second gyroscopic roll rate sensor to determine the vehicle's body angle and roll rate.

Help your car withstand the harsh winter weather (MS) -- Automobiles can be very resilient. Drivers typically don't treat their cars with kid gloves, but most cars keep chugging along in spite of it. Of course, drivers who treat their cars well can expect to get as much in return from their vehicles. That's especially true when winter weather arrives, which is the harshest season vehicles must endure every year. Harsh weather coupled with less-thanideal roadways typically take their toll on a vehicle as the season progresses, and it's up to drivers to help their cars withstand the elements of winter and make it to spring in drivable condition.

Short of moving to a locale that's warm and sunny 12 months a year, there's little drivers can do to avoid winter weather; however, there are several ways drivers can prepare their vehicles for the months ahead.

* Address your antifreeze.

Much like a winter coat protects people from winter weather, antifreeze protects vehicles when the weather outside is f rightful.

Not every antifreeze is c reated equal, and inadequate antifreeze can cause water pump failure and even a cracked engine block.

Drivers often fail to monitor their antifreeze levels throughout the winter, which can hurt their cars and might even be harmful to the environment. Traditional ethylene glycol, or EG, antifreezes have a sweet smell and taste that attracts animals and, if ingested, can harm local wildlife or even household pets. Propylene glycol antifreeze does not boast a sweet smell or taste, and though safe if ingested, reduces the likelihood that animals will be drawn to it. * Check the vehicle's charging system. Car batteries are forced to work harder in cold

weather, making it easier for a battery to die when the mercury drops. To avoid being stranded in the cold, ask your mechanic to check the vehicle's charging system to ensure the battery is ready for the cold months ahead. * Don't tread lightly. Tire treads are especially important during the colder months, when icy or snow-packed roads make driving a d angerous undertaking. Tires with adequate traction are better equipped to handle roads that might be covered in ice, dirt or grime from sand and salt trucks.

Check tire pressure regularly, especially when the temperatures are colder, and always inflate tires to the manufacturer-recommended PSI. PSI ratings can often be found on the driver's side door. * Monitor motor oil. An engine is only as good as the

motor oil that keeps it lubricated.

Poor lubrication results in friction between engine components, ultimately leading to wear and potentially taking years off engine life.

Drivers should regularly monitor their motor oil levels and adhere to the manufacturer's guidelines. When choosing a lubricant, look for a s ynthetic motor oil to maintain engine protection and performance. Synthetic motor oils provide significant benefits over their conventional counterparts, particularly in colder weather when conventional motor oil thickens as the temperature drops. When the mercury starts to sink, conventional motor oils can slow starting rpm, restrict oil flow to critical engine parts and increase wear on bearings and rings.

Conversely, synthetic motor oils still flow or pump at temperatures as much as 50 below zero,

allowing cars and trucks to start with greater ease. * Maintain visibility. Visibility is especially poor during the winter months when falling snow and dirt and grime are kicked up from the rear tires of other vehicles, making it difficult to see. To maintain adequate visibility throughout the winter, inspect wiper blades to make sure they are in peak condition. Be sure the blade fully clears the windshield of snow, rain and any other debris that might find its way into your driving line of vision. Never leave the house without enough windshield washer fluid in the reservoir, and keep an extra bottle of fluid in the trunk just to be safe. Winter driving conditions are rarely, if ever, ideal.

Winterizing your car can save cold cash Source: Be Car Care Aware

The last thing any driver needs is a v ehicle that breaks down in cold, harsh winter weather. Winterizing your vehicle should be a top priority, saving you from the inconvenience of being out in the cold and with the unexpected expense of emergency repairs.

"The thought of a breakdown, an engine not starting or otherwise being stranded is stressful as it is, but those things happening in freezing winter weather are extra stressful and costly," said Patty Kettles, Manager, Marketing and Communications, Be Car Care Aware. "An investment of an hour or two to have your vehicle checked is a ll it takes to have peace of mind and help avoid the cost and hassle of a b reakdown during harsh weather."

Here are some recommended steps for winterizing your vehicle: · Clean, flush and put new antifreeze in the cooling system.

As a ge neral rule of thumb, this should be done every two years. · Make sure heaters, defrosters and wipers work properly. Consider winter wiper blades and use cold weather washer fluid. As a ge neral rule, wiper blades should be replaced every six months. · Have the battery and charging system checked for optimum performance. Cold weather is hard on batteries. · Check the tire tread depth and tire pressure. If snow and ice are a problem in your area, consider special tires designed to grip slick roads. During winter, tire pressure should be ch ecked weekly. · Be diligent about changing the oil and filter at recommended intervals. Dirty oil can spell trouble in winter. Consider changing to a "winter weight" oil if you live in a cold climate. Have your technician check the fuel, air and transmission filters at the same time. · If you're due for a tuneup, have it done before winter sets in. Winter magnifies existing problems such as pings, hard starts, sluggish performance or rough idling. · Have the brakes checked.

The braking system is the vehicle's most important safety item. · Have the exhaust system checked for carbon monoxide leaks, which can be especially dangerous during cold weather driving when windows are closed.

Motorists should also keep the gas tank at least half full at all times to decrease the chances of moisture forming in the gas lines and possibly freezing. Drivers should check the tire pressure of the spare in the trunk and stock an emergency kit with an ice scraper and snowbrush, jumper cables, flashlight, flares, blanket, extra clothes, candles/matches, bottled water, dry food snacks and needed medication.

The Camrose Firefighters Association Race Truck was selected as one of the feature trucks in the Tech Toys Snap-on Tools 2012 calendar.

The local truck is t he only Canadian vehicle to be featured in the North American calendar.

"We entered a photo of the truck in a competition held by Snap-on Tools. Customers are allowed to submit pictures of vehicles. As it turned out, ours was the only Canadian entry to be accepted," said Allan Majeski. "We are pretty proud of the fact it made it in.

We have a very unique fire truck and it involved three years of building."

Firefighter Allan is a mechanic by trade and spent a lot of hours getting the vehicle ready for burn-outs, racing and show and shine competitions. "It is another feather in our hat to go along with our trophies we have collected at competitions."

The calendar is available from the two local Snap-on dealers, as well as from the Camrose Fire Department. "We will be selling the calendars at the department as a fundraiser for $10. The funds we collect go f or the upkeep of the truck." The Rapid Response truck is featured in July.

The truck was built and is maintained by volunteers.

"We have our own 100-footer in our own backyard. At f irst, we wanted to race it locally. Then it expanded to all over central Alberta."

Wherever the truck travels, it takes plenty of Camrose history with it. "It is a 1948 International and was originally owned by the Duggan family and purchased in Camrose," explained Allan. "It went from being a fa rm truck to Bob Roose's Groundhog tractor pulling truck. Now we have turned it into a drag truck."

Next year the truck will have three drivers in competitions.

"With work and the fire department, not everyone can make it to the races. We have between eight to 12 of us that work on the truck."

Laurie Adamson, Keith Hafso and Greg Jonson are the regular drivers. "I'm just the fixer and organizer," laughed Allan.

"It's built for the 100-footers, and show and shines to have a lot of fun with." The truck has a 4 60 engine with 636 horsepower.

Winter tires: it's how we move around in the land of ice and snow In recent years, more and more drivers have chosen to invest in winter tires, and with good reason. Recent advances in winter tire technology offer motorists significant advantages, not just on snow or ice, but on cold dry road surfaces as well.

Rubber stiffens as temperatures get colder, reducing traction capability. Modern winter tire rubber compounds, however, keep their elasticity even at temperatures as cold as minus 30 degrees Celsius and lower. The result is superior traction and performance in all road conditions during winter compared to all-season or conventional summer tires.

The idea that winter tires

are only for snow or ice covered roads is o ld-fashioned thinking.

Drivers should think of winter tires as ‘cold weather’ tires that offer superior traction, braking and cornering in every winter driving condition, including dry surfaces. The surface grip advantage offered by winter tires becomes evident when temperatures fall below seven degrees Celsius. When you can see your breath, its time for winter tires.

Since the late 1970s, allseason tires have been a p opular choice for Canadian drivers.

Even though all-season tires can provide safe all-weather performance, drivers need to know that winter tires are more efficient

once the temperature starts to fall. Winter tires offer up to 50 per cent more winter traction than all-seasons.

Canada’s tire makers also advise motorists to use winter tires on all wheel positions.

Using winter tires on the front or rear axle positions only can create a serious traction imbalance that can lead to a loss of control, particularly when cornering.

When shopping for winter tires, motorists should look for the “three peak mountain snowflake” on the sidewall. Only tires stamped with this distinctive symbol meet or exceed specific snow traction requirements established by the tire industry.

Customer Service is our Priority

Another key to safe winter driving is p roper tire inflation, which is m ore challenging to maintain in winter. Every five degree Celsius decrease in temperature results in a l oss of about one psi in air pressure. A temperature drop of 15 degrees Celsius, for example, which can happen frequently in winter, typically results in 10 per cent underinflation.

Tire under-inflation is a serious threat to vehicle safety. Under-inflated tires have a smaller footprint, which weakens their grip. The result is diminished braking and handling capabilities, not to mention significantly higher fuel

bills due to increased rolling resistance.

Drivers should use a t ire gauge to measure their air pressures monthly to ensure their tires are always inflated to the vehicle manufacturer’s recommendation. Visual checks are not an accurate way to measure inflation.

Winter tire consumers should also remember that excessive tread wear can diminish traction. Tread depth should always be checked at the start of the winter driving season. Drivers who are unsure if their tires are overly worn should consult a tire professional.

its capacity to sustain very low temperatures.

While the hood is open and your fingers dirty, why not verify the level of the brake master cylinder, the engine oil, the power

steering pump oil and, if possible, the transmission oil. In each case, check first with the owner’s manual. If you are not familiar with performing such operations, have your mechanic do it!

Winter Tire Safety Tip The importance of four winter tires…

On all vehicles, Transportation Canada and O.E. Manufacturers recommend winter tires must be installed on ALL four wheel positions to significantly reduce winter driving hazards. If winter tires are ONLY installed on two wheels, vehicle control problems could result.

Gary Vornbrock of Camrose entered his name online on October 6 and he received a call from McLennan Campbell Chrysler owner Wes Campbell on October 28 to tell him that he had won a new truck in a contest. Wes has known Gary for many years and has sold him more than one vehicle over the years and thought Wes was playing a joke on him at first. Gary picked up his new wheels valued at $40,000 on November 3. He was just one of four winners across Alberta during the Ram 4x4 giveaway contest, four trucks in four weeks.

Wall of Fame inductees encourage CCHS students

By Dan Jensen

Greta Reiten, Dr. Sandy Dong, Douglas Bieber and Clifford Hoyme gave sage advice to students upon their induction to the Camrose Composite High School Wall of Fame Nov. 18.

Reiten, who is a la wyer with a C algary firm, chair of the Bethany Care Society board of directors, and advisor to Biathlon Alberta, said her years at Camrose Composite High School as a student made her the person she is today.

"People often say that the high school years were the most terrible years that they had to endure. I cannot agree. The teachers, staff and classmates of CCHS gave me great memories and life lessons."

Reiten said one of the important lessons she has learned is to set high goals and work hard to achieve them.

"That is not to say that it is always easy or that you will not fail. Unfortunately, none of us will be able to reach each and every goal we set."

Reiten challenged students not to be afraid and to take the opportunities that are presented to them.

"You never know what experiences you may have unless you take the chance," she said.

Reiten also challenged students to find an activity about which they feel passionate and donate some of their time and skills.

"Believe me, you will gain so much from the experience and find it very rewarding while continuing to learn."

Dr. Dong, who is residency director in emergency medicine at the University of Alberta and a former STARS flight physician, said he was inspired by his

Inductees to the Camrose Composite High School Wall of Fame Nov. 18 were: (left to right) Clifford Hoyme, Greta Reiten, Douglas Bieber and Dr. Sandy Dong.

father, who was born in China and arrived in Canada with just four dollars in his pocket.

"The challenges he overcame are very inspiring," he said.

Dr. Dong's exhortation to students was to find inspiration and inspire those who come after them.

Bieber, who spent 40 years with the Public Service of Canada, said his goal upon graduating from CCHS in 1965 was to do something that would make a difference.

"My parents were a great inspiration to me. I w as impressed with their sense of community and wanted to do something to make them proud."

Bieber said he quickly learned his job was to be the eyes and ears of Canada.

"I was the face of Canada to most people I met and wherever I was, and no matter what time of day or night it was, when Canada was involved I was expected to know about it or talk about it."

Bieber said a good portion of his time later on in his career was spent explaining to senior business leaders and to senior foreign government leaders alike why Canada felt the way it did about certain issues.

"I had to remind them what was important and why Canadians valued certain rights, and, in the end, why those things were important to our

respective international relationships."

Bieber expressed the wish that students choose something they like and become good at it.

"I was glad to have an opportunity to make a d ifference and I would encourage all of you to do the same."

Hoyme, who was a teacher of machine shop and welding at CCHS from the time the school opened in 1963 to his retirement two decades later, said it is important to remember that the success of a person is not achieved by one's own effort alone, but also by the contributions of others.

"Administration, fellow teachers, caretakers, and even

the general public all contribute to the success or failure of a teacher's career."

Hoyme encouraged students to pursue their areas of interest, as he did, even if it means four years in high school and more later on.

"As you increase in knowledge and develop skills in certain areas, doors will continue to open for just the right career for you," he said. "Furthermore, no one can take these skills or gems of knowledge from you.

They're yours for life and most assuredly, a better way life."

Hoyme expressed the hope that students realize just how privileged they really are.

"I call you privileged because right here in this beautiful place of learning you have been exposed to the state of the art labs, coupled with an effective work experience program, and taught by the most qualified teachers anywhere in Alberta. They have helped you explore and to choose the areas in which you are most likely to succeed. Excellent facilities plus a qualified, dedicated administration staff and teachers.

What more can you ask? You are truly privileged to have been here at Camrose Composite High School."

The Camrose Composite High School Wall of Fame was started to recognize former students and teachers who have established themselves as leaders in their chosen vocations and who have made significant contributions to society, to celebrate the school's proud history, and to inspire current students to challenge themselves in their future careers and in service to others.

PHOTO CLASSIFIED ADS

A picture is worth 1,000 words!

For Want Ad service, please phone 780-672-3142 before six on Friday 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.

Be Accessible Including a telephone number or address puts you in touch with potential buyers.

Be sure to state the hours you can be reached: a caller who can’t get through the first time often won’t call again.

Don’t hesitate to call us with any questions or problems you may have regarding advertising. Our professionally trained sales staff know the ropes, and would be happy to pass their know-how on to you. That’s why we’re here, to help you get the results you deserve.

Hockey Vikings beat SAIT in overtime

By Murray Green

Although the Augustana Vikings' hockey team gave up a point to the SAIT Trojans, they proved they can play with the best teams by winning 3-2 in overtime on Nov. 9.

The Vikings remain within reach of one of the top places in the Alberta Colleges Athletic Conference. Last week, they tied Mount Royal 2-2 in overtime. "I don't know much about the past, but it is good to beat the top teams such as SAIT," said Adam Johnson, a f irst-year Vikings player. "To get the first one this early in the season is huge."

Augustana has started slowly in recent games. "It has been a trend the last two or three games.

We start slow and then have to fight back. We have to find a way to have a go od start and learn to put teams away," added the former Camrose Minor Hockey player. "We have to be prepared, a little tighter before the game and be ready to go. We need to prepare in the warm-up and for the game better. That's one thing we did in Fort McMurray, (Oil Barons) we were always ready to roll in the first period. I'm trying to bring that leadership, transfer it over, to the Vikings."

Adam said the team has to be ready, regardless of whom the team is playing. "That's one thing in juniors, any team could beat any other. We have to have that same mentality here and be ready to go at all times."

The top four teams in the ACAC are a step above the rest of the pack. "We have to play hard against the best teams and make sure we receive all of the points from the rest to keep pace.

We want to finish on top because home ice is huge in the playoffs and it gives us confidence. Confidence is h uge in any league. I have learned from leaders in the past and I want to pass that on to others."

Adam suffered a bad h ead injury in preseason and was thought to be done for the season or at least until the Christmas break. "It was a f reak accident and my helmet came off and I hit my head," explained Adam.

"I have no idea how I got back so

Vikings hoopsters trying to find their groove

By Dan Jensen

A pair of games against Grande Prairie this weekend should go a l ong way towards determining how the Augustana men's basketball team fares in the second half of the season.

"If there is any chance for us to show people that we are better than our record indicates this is it," said fourth year Viking Shane Bruney.

The Vikings got off to a slow start, winning just one of six games prior to this past weekend's action against Red Deer College and SAIT. Part of the problem was that in several of the contests the team appeared to be playing "tight," something that led to breakdowns and opponents getting a big lead.

"We identified some of the problems on our recent trip to Idaho and hopefully got things sorted out," said second year player and former CCHS Trojan Taylor Foreman.

The Vikings know that in order to get back on the winning side on a regular basis in what is a strong and competitive league they need a so lid 40 minutes of play from everyone. The league doesn't have the same powerhouses as it did last year but Lakeland College, which plays in the north division, is ranked as the number one team in the country.

"It's going to take some time but once we figure out we will be better," said Foreman.

The Vikings had a b it of extra incentive Friday night against the Red Deer College team, which entered the match with a r ecord of three wins and three losses.

"One of our players from last year left us to go to Red Deer two days before the start of school, so we really want to take it to them," said Bruney.

The Vikings won't have any more league games after this weekend's trip but will be travelling to Montana to play a pair of games against National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) teams the first weekend of December.

"We actually played one of the teams we will be facing when we went to Idaho, so we're going to get another shot at them," said Bruney.

Upon returning home the Vikings will once again be hosting the annual Christmas basketball classic, in which high school teams from central and northern Alberta gather at Augustana to play a round robin format tournament. Along with refereeing and operating the score clock, Vikings' players will be providing instruction for high school players in some of basketball's fundamentals.

"I attended a couple of the tournaments when I w as a member of the CCHS Trojans," said Foreman. "It was a good chance for me to see how hard the college players worked. You could see the college players were wanting you to excel."

Morris Harold Torhjelm

Nolan William Kerr

Morris Harold Torhjelm, eldest son of Harold and Blanche Torhjelm, was born on September 9, 1923 in Meeting Creek, AB. Suddenly, on November 14, 2011, he went to be with the Lord at t he age of 8 8 years and two months.

He grew up in Meeting Creek on the family farm. He met h is wife Olive Bawden and they were married on December 22, 1949.

He attended school at Little Rock and Prairie Bible Institute at T hree Hills. While there, he worked in the heating plant keeping the boilers going with coal which heated the whole campus. They also watched for spontaneous combustion of t he coal pile so it wouldn’t catch on fire, always ready with the water hose to douse the flames. He also sang in a quartet at Sunday morning church services on the radio while at Prairie.

He loved to be with his uncles Edward, Lawrence and Hugo who lived nearby. On hot summer nights, they would sleep on the veranda under the stars. His aunts and uncles brought him to church which was in the Swedish language. His reading in the Swedish Bible brought snickers from the other children. He was a g reat little entrepreneur, selling gopher tails and crows’ eggs.

They lived in Edmonton and Red Deer where Morris worked at Ma cleods, Eaton’s Company and Deerhome. They returned to Meeting Creek where they bought his Uncle Edward’s farm in 1965.

In 1968, Morris took a nursing assistant course, then joined the Rosehaven Care Centre in Camrose where he enjoyed working with the residents and staff until he r etired.

He also did a bit of farming on the side.

Over the years and into retirement, Morris and Olive enjoyed taking their music to retirement lodges, churches and many other occasions.

He is survived by his wife Olive; children Val and Roger (Liz); three grandchildren Nicole, Russell and Jonathan; two greatgrandchildren Randy and Reece; two brothers James (Bette) and Lorne (Carol); three sisters Velma (Ronald) Vasselin, Marilyn (John) Giesbrecht and LaVae Swanson; sister-in-law Carolyn; numerous nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.

He was predeceased by his parents; his brother Gerald in 1998; and three infant siblings in 1932, 1934 and 1942.

The family thanks everyone for the support shown through prayer, attendance at the service and expressions of sympathy.

A funeral service was held at 1: 00 p.m., Saturday, November 19, 2011 at Weber’s Mount Pleasant Chapel. Interment has taken place at V alleyview Cemetery, Camrose. Memorial donations may be made to the Christian Blind Mission, the Heart and Stroke Foundation or to the charity of one’s choice. Condolences may be made at www.weberfuneralhome.ca.

Nolan William Kerr of Round Hill, Alberta passed away on Wednesday, November 16, 2011 at the age of 2-1/2 years.

Nolan was born on April 12, 2009 a healthy baby boy. He was adored by many including his big sister, Chantal, who was his best friend. Nolan soon earned the nickname “Monkey” because as soon as he could crawl, he was climbing. He enjoyed imitating his sister and was a l ittle bit of a c lown. Nolan would always point or shake his head “no” to let us know we needed to do something else. It was his fighting spirit that carried him through his life of two-and-a-half years, including his 14-month battle with cancer.

He is survived by his loving parents Wesley and Colleen Kerr of R ound Hill; his big sister Chantal; his grandparents Daryle and Kathy Kerr and Harvey and Bernadine Maul; his aunt and uncles Annette (Jason) Lesmeister and Kevin (Janice) Maul, Ken and Mike Kerr; one great-grandmother; one great-grandfather; numerous great aunts and uncles; and many cousins and friends.

What you really Help fill a hot tub for Silent Santa need is a bit more insulation Adding Johns Manville Attic Protector is a proven way to insulate an attic of any size or shape, without any cutting or fitting.

When you blow Attic Protector in using our rental machine, or have our experts do the installation for you, your home’s hard to reach areas (corners, edges and around framing) will be filled quickly and completely.

Unlike cellulose, it won’t appreciably settle, decay or provide food for animals or microbes.

It also improves your home’s acoustical performance and indoor air quality, as it is completely Formaldehyde-free.

Russ and Doneal Greipl are asking Camrose and area residents to help them fill a hot tub or two full of toys for the Silent Santa program.

By Dan Jensen

R&D Hot Tubs is asking for the help of Camrose and area residents in filling a hot tub with toys for the Kinette Club's Silent Santa program.

Toys may be dropped off at the store between now and 3 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 10.

"Our goal is to fill the hot tub with toys at least two times," said R&D Hot Tubs owner Doneal Greipl.

"If we can fill it once we will donate $500 to Silent Santa. If we fill it twice the donation will be $1,000."

While this is the first year

R&D Hot Tubs has done a t oy collection for Silent Santa it won't be the last.

"Our plan is to make this an annual event," said Greipl.

"We believe Christmas is all about kids and that every kid deserves to have something for Christmas."

Toys brought to R&D Hot Tubs should be new and unwrapped. They will be delivered the last weekend before Christmas.

R&D Hot Tubs has had a strong history of giving back to the community since opening its doors in July 2008. Camrose

Friends of STARS, the Kinsmen Charity Auction and the Augustana Rocky Road Ice Cream Fantasy are just some of the organizations and events that have benefitted from its support.

"We feel it is i mportant to support the community that supports us," said Greipl.

R&D Hot Tubs is l ocated at 3843F-44 Avenue, Camrose.

Hours of operation are Monday to Friday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Saturday from 10 a.m. t o 3 p.m. Further details may be obtained by calling 780-6794003.

Add Attic Protector insulation over existing insulation or as a wise and affordable insulation choice during new construction.

Adding a R20 level of insulation can be achieved for the very low price of 44 cents per foot!

Attic Protector is also fire resistant and non-combustible!

It’s easy to install, if you’re a “do-it-yourselfer!”
