Rides provide thrills for young jaywalkers

By Lori Larsen

Get ready to get thrilled on one of West Coast Amusement’s many rides or test your agility and skills on a midway game during Jaywalkers’ Jamboree, running from Friday, May 31 until Sunday, June 2.

Strap yourself or your children into some of the

tried and true favourites of West Coast Amusement rides or prepare for new wild adventures on three new rides joining the midway this year.

A gondola style Ferris wheel will take you to new heights, bumper cars are sure to bring out a little fun road rage and the Ring of Fire (spinning ride) will

have you going in circles both on and then off the ride.

Jaywalkers will also be able to enjoy a slide down memory lane with the return of the Giant Slide to the ride excitement.

With plenty of rides available for the little ones, keeping them smil-

ing and entertained won’t be a problem.

For a little bit quieter ride, jump on board the Mirror Lake Express for a chug around the Mirror Lake trail. The train will board at the arbour at Mirror Lake, just down from the Bill Fowler Centre.

Wristband tickets are

available through pre-sale until Thursday, May 30 at Canadian Tire, Wildrose Co-op and the Visitors Information Centre located at Mirror Lake Park.

Follow the screams, the thrills and chills that await those who are brave at heart during Jaywalkers’ Jamboree.

Women’s Institutes convention here

By Murray Green

The Alberta Women’s Institutes’ annual provincial convention takes place at the Norsemen Inn in Camrose June 4 to 5.

Women’s Institute (WI) is an organization that helps women of all ages to achieve change through personal growth, communication and education.

“We will have handicraft exhibits again, guest speakers will talk about the conventions they have gone to and we work on different resolutions, such as trying to get the government to provide shingle shots to seniors. WI was instrumental in the pasteurization of milk, shots for children and various projects. They were very active after the First World War and Second World War,” explained district director Yvonne Erickson.

“We try to promote leadership among women, to encourage local community development, and to assist women both locally and globally,” added Yvonne.

“At a local branch level or as a provincial group, we have made significant contributions to the quality of life for our families and our

communities. Homestead mothers taught each other life skills such as, canning, cooking, home medicine, crafts, gardening and even farming when the men were away at war.”

The WI has been transforming into a group of women who assist in community needs through fundraising to assist the Women’s Shelter and various other associations. The WI meets from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Tuesday and until noon on Wednesday. “We are trying to get more young people involved in WI. We want to re-invent it like it was when the soldiers went off to war.

In Round Hill, the WI built the school and hall through fundraising events,” shared Yvonne. “Now men are allowed to join the WI as well.”

WI is an educational organization for women to serve the home and country by working to improve social conditions and personal growth. It was formed in 1897. For more information on the Alberta Women’s Institute, contact president Cathleen Thurston at rigby9@telus.net or phone 780-892-2252.

Project Ohaton launched by Men’s Shed

By Murray Green

Members of the Camrose Men’s Shed group launched Project Ohaton on May 16.

Members joined Camrose County Reeve Don Gregorwich at the Camrose Centennial Museum’s Old Timer’s Hut to kick off the legacy project to design, build, fund and erect a lasting memorial to Flying Officer Ken Earnshaw of Ohaton, RAF 617 Dambuster Squadron fame.

The date has significant meaning in the Second World War history because it was on that date in 1943 that the Dam Busters raided Germany.

“On this night, 76 years ago, Dambuster Mission to destroy three Ruhr Valley Hydroelectric Dams in Germany began with undeniable courage and ended in history,” explained Neil Leeson of the Men’s Shed.

The dams were Möhne, Eder and Sorpe. Earnshaw was in the John Vere Hopgood M for Mother plane (many considered Hopgood as one of the best pilots).

Clarence Hastings and Leeson met with the Legion Branch 57 in Camrose to seek assistance in acquiring a commemorative photo of Flying Officer Ken Earnshaw (as displayed in Bashaw Legion), joining the May 16, 2020 monument ribbon cutting ceremony and employing Legion publications to reach out across Canada with Project Ohaton updates.

“Ken was on the second bomber to go in to destroy the Mohne Hydroelectric Dam. The story is about courage. He had flown 30 successful missions and was to be sent back to Canada.

When called upon in April 1943 to be a replacement navigator, he readily accepted. Two weeks before the

mission, the original second navigator took ill after two months of training. Unfortunately, Earnshaw was killed in that mission as only 11 of the 19 bombers returned. A total of 133 airmen were involved in the mission, 14 from Alberta.

Of the 56 crewmen lost, 14 were Canadian,” informed Leeson. “That’s a 42 per cent loss. It took courage and yet no one backed out of the mission.”

The Men’s Shed has been involved in smaller projects such as building the library houses for books around the city. “But we wanted to be involved in something more that will leave a legacy. It would help educate children in the area

County appoints weed inspectors

By Murray Green

Camrose County appointed five people as weed inspectors for 2019.

Councillor Jack Lyle moved “That Camrose County appoint Trevor Davies, Tanner Korchinski, Alyssa Olstad, Tim Sand and Rick Uglem as inspectors pursuant to Part 2, Section 7 (1) of the Weed Control Act and Section 10 (1) the Agricultural Pests Act. A local authority shall appoint inspectors to enforce and monitor compliance with this Act within the municipality.

An inspector appointed by a municipality may, with the consent of the local authority of another municipality, enforce and monitor compliance with this Act

within the other municipality.

Agricultural Pests Act suggests that the local authority of a municipality shall appoint a sufficient number of inspectors to carry out this Act and the regulations within the municipality.

Two or more local authorities may jointly appoint inspectors to act within the municipalities represented by the local authorities and enter into an agreement for the sharing of the costs of the inspectors appointed jointly.

Camrose County Agricultural Services will provide weed and pest inspection services in agreement with the City of Camrose, and the Village of Edberg and Village of Hay Lakes.

about the war and about a local hero,” he added.

“We want a first class monument with high quality and built to last. The monument would have river rock, plexiglass place for a photo and a brass plaque for a little history about the sacrifice that was made by Earnshaw,” said Leeson.

Although the location of the monument hasn’t been finalized, placing it in Lloyd Sheets Recreation Park along Highway 13 is thought to be an ideal spot for the cairn.

The two direct mine hits on the Möhne dam resulted in a breach around 250 feet (76 metres) wide and 292 feet (89 metres) deep. The destroyed dam

poured around 330 million tons of water into the western Ruhr region. A torrent of water around 32.5 feet (10 metres) high and travelling at around 15 mph (24 km/h) swept through the valleys of the Möhne and Ruhr rivers. A few mines were flooded; 11 small factories and 92 houses were destroyed and 114 factories and 971 houses were damaged. The floods washed away about 25 roads, railways and bridges as the flood waters spread for around 50 miles (80 km) from the source. Estimates show that before May 15, 1943 water production on the Ruhr was one million tonnes; this dropped to a

ROTARY CARES

quarter of that level after the raid.

The greatest impact on the Ruhr armaments production was the loss of hydroelectric power. Two power stations (producing 5,100 kilowatts) associated with the dam were destroyed and seven others were damaged. This resulted in a loss of electrical power in the factories and many households in the region for two weeks. In May 1943, coal production dropped by 400,000 tons, which German sources attribute to the effects of the raid.

The chronicles of Operation Chastise, the historical bombing raid against the hydro-electric dams of Germany’s Ruhr River during the Second World War were retold to Camrose and area residents last year during a screening of the 1955 movie The Dam Busters.

The story followed the tale of Barnes Wallis, an inventor who spawned the idea to use spinning cylinders filled with high explosive to destroy a series of German dams in an effort to paralyze Germany, by taking out sources of electrical power.

The second part of the film covers the story of the Royal Air Force’s 617 Squadron and the specially trained aircrew tasked with turning Wallis’s idea into a reality. Many of the pilots and crew were Canadians, that played not only an integral, but in some cases life sacrificing, part in the outcome of the Second World War. Earnshaw was born in Ohaton, attended Camrose High School and taught at Whitebush School in Bashaw before serving in the war.

Good food prepared

By Lori Larsen

Jaywalkers’ Jamboree, being held from May 31 to June 2 in Downtown Camrose, is a treat for all the senses: the sound of live entertainment and laughing children, the feeling in the pit of your stomach as you whirl around on a ride, the sight of hundreds of people milling around downtown and the smell and taste of fair food wafting through the air.

Once again, vendors will be offering up a banquet of different delights with fare for everyone’s taste buds. From candy floss to burgers and fries the old faithfuls will be available, along with new foods representing different flavours from around the world.

Kick off Jaywalkers’ with a couple f luffy pancakes at the pancake breakfast, located just south of Candler Art Gallery (5002-50 Street), held Friday, May 31 from 7 until 9:30 a.m. and Saturday June 1 from 7:30 until 10 a.m.

And of course Jaywalkers’ wouldn’t be the same without but-

ter dripping down your chin after biting into steaming corn on the cob brought to the festival by none other than Camrose Fire Department.

Don’t worry about the calories of all the cuisine though, you will walk it off as you stroll around downtown, braving the rides, shopping for bargains or just enjoying the ambience.

Lori Larsen, Camrose Booster At last year’s Jaywalkers’ Jamboree, Camrose Fire Department served up their famous steaming hot, butter dripping, sweet corn on the cob.

Deputy Fire Chief Joe Mah was happy to bring the crowd what they wanted.

Jaywalkers’ Jamboree – long standing tradition of fun

By Lori Larsen

This will be the 62nd year for Jaywalkers’ Jamboree – 61 years of offering Camrose and area residents and guests an outdoor street fair that has grown in size and popularity.

Beginning Friday, May 31 and lasting until Sunday, June 2 Jaywalkers’ Jamboree continues to be one of the highlights of Camrose.

The idea for Jaywalkers’ was sparked by Bill Fowler, founder of The Camrose Booster and a member of the planning committee that had been charged by, then Camrose Chamber of Commerce president Dr. Hamp Smith, with the task of either revitalizing the

in front of Champion’s Bakery.

The third Jaywalkers’ Jamboree was billed in an advertisement in the June 21, 1960 edition of The Camrose Booster as being more fun than a far eastern bazaar, as well as a unique experience in shopping pleasure.

“There is more participation in every respect than ever before,” said Fowler in his weekly column, Bits, Binds and Baloney. “The event will be more colourful and interesting than ever.”

As Jaywalkers’ progressed, the hubbub downtown soon attracted the attention of businesses that began offering sales and specials, another draw to the fes-

them to put as many coupons as they wanted into that particular merchant’s draw barrel.

Celebrating Canada’s 100th birthday in 1967, jaywalkers were encouraged to come dressed in centennial costumes and the Camrose Chamber of Commerce gave away a grand jackpot prize of 200 silver dollars.

In 1968, the friendly competition of Alberta Bundle Pitching Championship took place between Mayors Vincent Dantzer, of Edmonton, and Dr. F.M. Smith of Camrose. Mayor Dantzer went on to defeat Mayor Smith in the opening round then competed in the final Saturday afternoon against the eventual winner, Lieutenant Governor J. Grant MacEwan.

In 1971, Mirror Lake became the centre of some new excitement for Jaywalkers’ when the addition of canoe races paddled in a whole new degree of excitement.

Leaving their prints annual fall festival or shutting it down and doing something else.

The outdoor festival had somewhat humble beginnings with the offering of two free rides for each child and additional rides at a cost of five cents; today includes a set up and take down of a variety of thrill seeking rides presented by West Coast Amusement, that takes almost an entire week.

In the early days of Jaywalkers’ trade booths were set up offering products from lemonade to steers and hogs. Today vendors and businesses offer amazing bargains, a plethora of tastes and treats and while there may not be any hogs or steers you can find a host of products to purchase.

tival that continues and has become a well known feature throughout the region.

In 1963, even more interest to the growing street fair included Al Oeming’s Game Farm display of wild animals, a large auction put on by the Lions Club, square dancing, lucky draws, games of chance, bargains abound and home baked goods for purchase.

In 1966, the Jamboree got another injection of excitement with the Jamboree jackpot. Jaywalkers could purchase coupons at 25 for $1 then select a prize of their choice allowing

role in Jaywalkers’. In 1973 CFCW sponsored a world championship kobasa-eating contest including free rides in the Kobasa Chuckwagon for children under the age of 12.

From there Jaywalkers’ continued to make history. The additions of themes, live entertainment throughout the downtown core, thrilling rides, street vendors and even more downtown businesses getting on board has infused Camrose with hundreds of people coming from a variety of locations to be a part of the frenzy of a long standing tradition.

Roaming in our fields, forests and sometimes front yards are a slew of wildlife species leaving behind a trail of evidence of their existence, including a set of tracks.

Identifying what was skulking about is made easy with the first guest speaker of the Camrose Greenspace and Wildlife Stewardship Summer program series, Steve Olson on May 30 starting at 7 p.m at the Stoney Creek Centre (5320-39 Avenue).

Olson is a wildlife biologist and local naturalist. His love for nature developed while catching frogs with his father, an activity that continues with his niece and nephews. When he is not out performing wildlife surveys, he is leading nature connection programs for kids with his Magpie Nature Connection business.

He will be presenting information to attendees on how to identify different animal tracks found throughout Camrose and Camrose County.

People of all ages will enjoy this free event that includes some outdoor activity as well.

Attendees of any summer session are encouraged to put their name into a draw at each session for a prize to be drawn during the last session of the season.

For more information on any of the Wildlife Stewardship sessions or program, visit the Camrose website or Facebook page, email Brittany at wildlifestewardship@ camrose.ca or telephone 780-672-0544.

Have the scales of justice been tipped?

By Kevin Sorenson In the press conference on May 8th, following the stay in the charges against Vice-Admiral Mark Norman, his lead lawyer, Marie Henein, said “You should be very concerned when anyone tries to erode the resilience of the justice system or demonstrates a failure to understand why it is so fundamental to the democratic values we hold so dear. There are times you agree with what happens in a court room there are times you don’t. And that’s fine.

But what you don’t do is you don’t put your finger and try to weigh in on the scales of justice. That is not what should be happening.”

Norman served as the Vice Chair of the Defence Staff until his suspension in January 2017. At that time, he was under investigation for allegedly leaking Cabinet secrets about a $700-million navy ship building contract.

However, the second-in-command to the Chief of the Defence Staff wasn’t charged by the RCMP with breach of trust until March 2018 – more than a year after being relieved of his duties. It has taken over two years for this travesty of justice to finally end.

There is overwhelming evidence that this charade and the ensuing personal and professional hardship Norman endured for over two years was due to political interference on the part of the Liberal government.

As the Vice-Admiral’s defence team made clear, the documents the Prime Minister and his government were denying them were the very documents that ultimately lead to the charges being stayed. “We have been, and you have all been with us for six months as we have tried, day in day out to try to get that material. It should have been handed over. It should have been handed over to RCMP, it should have been handed over to the prosecution. It was not. As to why, I don’t know, I leave you to answer that,” Henein said on May 8th.

While the denial of information to mount a case strongly suggests the government deliberately suppressed evidence for political reasons, Canadians will not be able to meet the lawyer’s challenge in answering that question. Attempts to get to the bottom of what is currently perceived as a politically-motivated prosecution, has been defeated by Liberal Members of Parliament.

Conservative members of the Defence Committee brought a motion to launch a parliamentary inquiry into the travesty of justice in the Norman case. Our motion, as the one brought by Conservative members of the Justice Committee on the SNC-Lavalin affair, was predictably defeated by Liberal Members of the Committee.

This denial to get to the truth in an open and transparent forum leads us to believe that the Liberal government does in fact have something to hide. The perception that the scales of justice have been tipped by a political hand is as serious as the actual tipping.

No one, including the government of Canada, is above the law nor do they have the right or power to direct the independent Public Prosecution Service of Canada. Unfortunately, the Norman case, on top of the SNC-Lavalin affair, certainly leaves Canadians with the impression the Trudeau Liberals believe otherwise.

I would like to take this opportunity to express my sincere regrets to Vice-Admiral Mark Norman and his family for this unprecedented character assassination that caused undue financial and emotional hardship.

Thank you, Vice-Admiral, for your decades of service to this country. I sincerely hope that Prime Minister Trudeau finds it within his heart to apologize to Mark Norman and to honour his service to Canada by agreeing to an inquiry that will finally reveal the truth and truly put an end to this travesty of justice.

Janae has also completed some coaching clinics and may help coach next season, while going to the University of Alberta Augustana.

McClung running in Crowfoot Submitted

Jefferson McClung is seeking the nomination to be the next conservative candidate for the federal riding of Battle RiverCrowfoot. McClung lives just outside of Stettler with his wife and three children.

He is currently a social studies teacher at Wm. E. Hay Stettler Secondary Campus. While campaigning, McClung is continuing his duties as a full-time teacher.

“My days are long as I still have all my marking and lesson plans to create on top of my campaigning.

I am not a career politician with a team of professional campaigners behind me.

I do not have the luxury of stepping down from my job to campaign, nor would I do that to my students right before they graduate.

I am too invested in their success.”

He hasn’t always been a teacher. McClung has a lengthy resume. A sampling of his past employment would reveal that he has worked as a labourer building oil, water and sewer pipelines. He has been a missionary for his church. He has done all manner of construction, from building houses and schools to building roads.

He has worked on many farms including his own.

McClung is known for hard honest work and community involvement.

“I understand the issues facing regular Albertans because I am a regular Albertan.”

McClung has very strong opinions about the failures of the Trudeau government, but he is ultimately concerned with what the people of the riding want. He has been travelling around the riding, meeting in people’s

Jefferson McClung

homes, talking to them on the streets, connecting with them on Facebook and getting to know the people and their concerns.

“I have seen how the policies of the Liberal government have hurt the people of our riding. Our economy has been devastated. First, it was our natural resource industry that came under attack, now our farmers are dealing with a trade war. This has affected all areas of

our economy. I am passionate about fighting for what is best for the people of this riding. Alberta deserves better than how the Liberals have been treating us. Canada deserves better than Trudeau’s corruption.”

As a social studies teacher, McClung has a thorough knowledge of politics, economics and civics.

He has been studying these subjects for two decades and intends on using this knowledge to advocate for the people of Battle RiverCrowfoot. He is passionate and vocal about the issues, gives real answers and will fight for real change.

“The people of this riding are tired of politicians who will not give a straight answer to questions. I always have, and always will give honest direct answers. I do not talk like a typical politician, because I am not a typical politician, and I am prepared to fight harder than a typical politician.”

The nomination contest is going to be a difficult challenge. In order to participate and cast a vote to decide who the next candidate will be, Battle River-Crowfoot constituents should contact one of the nomination contestants and obtain a Conservative Party of Canada membership.

Pain control a concern for beef producers

Now Is The Time To Spring Into Colour!

Submitted

The demand for humanely-raised farm animals has reached a critical point in Canada. The Canadian Centre for Food Integrity estimates that 40 per cent of Canadians are concerned with humane treatment of farm animals, and support for that is rising every year.

The beef industry wants consumers to know they’re listening. “Every producer, veterinarian, research scientist–we all respect the animals we work with and care deeply about doing what’s best for them,” said Dr. Merle Olson, a prominent Canadian veterinary researcher who has dedicated his career to developing humane treatments for production animals. He is the lead pharmaceutical developer at Solvet–a Calgarybased company that generates veterinary medicines for the Canadian livestock industry.

The demand for humanely-raised beef is not just driven by consumers, however. Cattle producers and veterinarians themselves have been vocal about

needing humane treatments for years. “Producers have long recognized the importance of pain relief for procedures like castration and branding, but have not had the tools to control pain,” he said. In response, they have approached Dr. Olson for a solution. After five years of research and development, Dr. Olson produced Meloxicam Oral Suspension as an easy-to-administer pain relief product for livestock. It has been recognized across the industry as a significant innovation in animal welfare.

Kim Hextall operates a family-run cattle farm with her husband in Gren-

fell, Saskatchewan, and is an advocate for humanelyraised beef. Hextall Livestock is designated Verified Beef Production+, a certification that acknowledges responsible on-farm beef production and food safety practices in Canada and is endorsed by industry and regulatory bodies, including the Canadian Food Inspection Agency. “We do what we can to relieve as much stress as possible,” she said.

“We used Meloxicam for this reason, and all the cattle were mothered up very well.

The next day after branding they looked very normal and that is what we were really

looking for in a pain relief product.”

Dr. Olson acknowledges that although oral Meloxicam was developed for cattle welfare reasons, the pain control has been shown to translate into healthier and more productive animals.

Alberta-based beef producer Sue Giles has seen the benefit first-hand. “When we used it, our weights were definitely up at weaning,” said Giles, who, alongside her husband Jason, is a partner in Giles Ranch. “It kind of makes sense if you’re reducing stress that they’re going to give something back to you,” she added.

Now that pain control

has established its place in cattle production, consumers, cattle producers and veterinarians can be confident that Canadian production systems are meeting animal welfare concerns. Research coming out of Western Canada and the rapid adoption by producers and veterinarians have significantly contributed to this.

“Ultimately, producers want Canadians to know that we all have a common desire for doing the right thing,” said Dr. Olson. “We too care about these animals, and our industry is responding with innovations to demonstrate that.”

Lori Larsen, Camrose Booster Over the past years Jaywalkers’ Jamboree has added a variety of entertainment to the downtown fair. Last year École Camrose Composite High School band entertained fair-goers, providing a musical break from shopping and rides.

Lori Larsen, Camrose Booster Jaywalkers’ Jamboree attracts crowds to experience, not only the open air fair, but the great bargains offered by downtown businesses and services.

Great shopping experience

By Lori Larsen

Jaywalkers’ Jamboree has been the centre of Camrose and a much larger area, in June for 62 years now and downtown businesses and services have always been along for the ride.

This year the tradition continues from May 31 to June 2 and welcomes old friends and new friends to check out the action packed event.

What originally began as an outdoor fair to bring people from all over to experience the unique offerings of the downtown sector, has grown to be a renowned festival, with retail at the centre of it all.

Candler Art Gallery owner/operator Audrey Pfannmuller has been conducting business downtown for approximately 43 years and has been a part of the changing face of Jaywalkers’.

“When I was first involved, over 40 years ago, it was where people did all their shopping, downtown,” said Pfannmuller. “A lot of the retail was located downtown, even the bigger box stores. So it was a great time to get seasonal sales.”

She went on to say that

in the past 20 years the face of Jaywalkers’ has changed a bit to be more of a Main Street carnival. “This is a great public relations weekend for us.” By leaving the door to her shop pried open people wander in to see what it is all about. “An open door is an invitation– a closed door is a decision.

This way people come on in and we can get to know them and they can get to know us. It’s an opportunity to build relationships.”

She also noted that the addition of the entertainment to Jaywalkers’ has done wonders for bringing a variety of people down to the festival.

And that it does. People come from near and far to take in the excitement that goes along with an open air fair.

“Jaywalkers’ Jamboree brings people into Camrose who may not have necessarily known much about Camrose, but were very familiar with this popular event,” said Bellissima Fashions manager Sandy McLean noting that Jaywalkers’ plays a vital role in drawing new people to the City and downtown area, and when they get here for the fair many are happily

surprised to discover the wonderful downtown shopping, unique shops and services and friendly staff.

“It’s a great ambassador for our City and our downtown core.”

While some of the traditional concepts behind Jaywalkers’ may have morphed into new attractions, the main idea remains the same: an event filled with fun, a way to get out and visit with friends, while enjoying all the perks of an amazing outdoor fair.

Co-owner/operator of Duff Layton’s Men’s Wear, Elsie Olofson relishes the opportunity to showcase downtown. “Jaywalkers’ is one of the busiest weekends of the year at Duff Layton’s Men’s Wear,” she said. “Anyone looking for a bargain will find many. The exciting atmosphere created by this event has made it a destination tradition for many families. It is a great opportunity to promote downtown businesses.”

Jaywalkers’ Jamboree has stood the test of time and through growth and experiment has become an iconic Central Alberta event that promises a fun time for everyone.

ÉCKS music program earn superior awards

ANSWERS FOR THE HEARING AID CONSUMER:

JOIN US FOR A SPECIAL PRESENTATION

Submitted

The École Charlie Killam School music program, under the direction of Bob Bailey, made three trips to Red Deer for the Alberta Band Association’s Festival of Bands.

The ÉCKS Grade 8 concert band was first to perform on Monday, May 13 and received an excellent plus rating. The ÉCKS Grade 7 and Grade 6 concert bands followed on Wednesday and Thursday respectively, with both winning Superior Band awards. This is the highest honour given at the festival and reserved for those few bands who perform beyond expectations for their level. All the ensembles received high praise from the judging panel.

Each concert band performs three contrasting pieces for the adjudicators (four distinguished jurors that are highly ranked band educators and professionals from universities across USA and Canada). They spend a half hour immediately afterwards in a clinic with one of the adjudicators, who works with them on aspects of one or more of their musical selections.

Finally, they are examined by another adjudicator who puts them through their musical paces, testing them on sightreading, rhythm, dynamics and other musical skills. It’s a rigorous and highly revealing process that is very beneficial to both the students and their conductor.

The Alberta Band Association’s Festival of Bands is a two-week annual provincial festival that is heavily attended by school concert bands (Grades 6 through 12) throughout Alberta and also draws music ensembles from B.C., Saskatchewan, Manitoba, and northern USA. It’s an important event for many band students and their leaders to work towards each year, honing their musical and stage deportment skills and testing

MAY IS BETTER HEARING MONTH their mettle. It also gives them a chance to hear other ensembles and connect with other musicians and conductors.

The ÉCKS music program has been honoured to receive many superior awards and other accolades over the years.

This recipe for success requires several ingredients...students who work hard at the busi-

ness of mastering their instrument, learning their music, and attending extra-curricular rehearsals; a dedicated, skilled, and patient band director in the pursuit of excellence; and a school district and school administration that recognizes the inherent educational value of a strong music program and is willing to support it.

The École Charlie Killam School administration and the Battle River School Division realize that a strong start in music making is crucial for the music development of a student, as it paves the way for quality playing and excellent musicianship at high school and university levels.

But beyond that, they rec-

ognize that education in music is essential to every student’s intellectual, physical, social and emotional growth, enhancing their academic achievement and quality of life. The École Charlie Killam School students and their parents are reaping the rewards of this enlightened approach to the education of the overall student.

County opposes new rural permits

25 000 ,

OR MORE ON PRE-BUILT HOMES

By Murray Green

Camrose County opposes the new transportation permit process that doesn’t allow for local input in hauling routes.

“If the province controls the permit process then we don’t have any say in which roads to recommend,” said administration Paul King. “Sometimes we like to move the hauling routes a mile or two because certain roads can handle the weight and volume better.”

Councillors agreed that Zach Mazure (public works manager) and Mike Kuzio (protective services manager) know the County roads better than the provincial government.

“I move that a letter be written to the minister of transportation, under the Reeve’s (Don Gregorwich) signature, in support of the RMA’s position with regard to the rural road permitting process and the potential impact it will have on municipal infrastructure if the Alberta Government changes the permitting to an annual provincial permit,” said councillor Jack Lyle.

“It is nice to know when and where the loads are going so we can keep track of the movement,” added Zach.

The permits don’t generate a lot of revenue, but are useful in keeping the County informed on activity.

Kevin Sorenson, Member of Parliament for Battle River-Crowfoot, stood firm in his opposition to Bill C-75 after it passed third reading in the House of Commons before being sent to the Senate for debate.

“I have received hundreds of emails, calls and letters from constituents opposed to this ill-conceived piece of legislation, which downgrades many serious offences listed in the Criminal Code as strictly indictable,” fumed

trials across Canada that have been stayed, including charged murderers, for going over the imposed time limits.

Does Alberta need a rural minister

On Jan. 14, the federal government announced the appointment of a new minister—Bernadette Jordan became the Minster of Rural Economic Development, responsible for “championing middle-class job creation, economic opportunity and quality of life in rural Canada.”

This work is expected to include the development of a Canadian Rural Economic Development StratLars Hallstrom, egy, investments in rural Political Studies, University of Alberta infrastructure (proposed May Augustana Campus 10), rural broadband, family services such as rural affordable housing, early learning, childcare and both economic and immigration initiatives for rural Canada.

Although rural Canada has a long-standing and critical importance to the economic and social development of the country, rural development has usually taken second place to broader economic and political goals, and in many ways, this new position is no different. There are roughly 150 rural ridings in Canada (the remaining 188 are considered urban), and the success of any party in those ridings can make or break an election (particularly for the federal Conservative caucus, which is approximately two-thirds rural).

However, leaving the electoral motives behind, what does this appointment mean for rural Canadians and what might rural Albertans take away from it?

The developmental trajectory of rural Canada has been well-documented by political scientists (like myself), economists like Mel Watkins or Harold Innis, geographers, sociologists, historians, and the like. From this body of work, it is possible to identify four basic characteristics that have shaped federal rural policy.

First, many rural communities are separated from each other, and from larger centres, by great distances.

For example, the distance from Resolute, Nunavut to Edmonton is 2,500 km, and to Ottawa is almost 3,400 km. Second, the combination of large distances and small populations results in low population density. The Statistics Canada definition for “truly” rural is less than 1,000 people and a density of less than 400/sq. km. Third, Canada’s rural population has been declining in comparison to urban, particularly as young people leave rural areas for education, employment and services. Finally, our rural economies are often “extractive” and single-industry, whether agricultural, energy, fisheries, or forestry.

These characteristics are linked to a number of core “sustainability challenges” for rural communities, including infrastructural decline, aging populations, decreasing revenues and services, capital and labour flight, softening demand for housing, challenges for service provision across health, education and social sectors, and, as has often been the case in Western Canada, the risks of boom and bust cycles. In truly remote and many Indigenous communities, these issues are even greater, and often more complex.

For the new minister, this portfolio means acknowledging not only the diversity of some 4,700 rural communities in Canada, but the complex inter-relationships between rural development, rural peoples, and the politically expedient decisions of the past. Rural communities in Canada are littered with the remnants and effects of economic “development”–whether large-scale agricultural investments (ex. hog farms), construction to support energy development, or single-industry economies that (as a recent Globe and Mail series noted) are vulnerable to automation.

What many of these initiatives have failed to include are the increasingly well-documented social, economic, ecological and health vulnerabilities that often come with them–both with their creation, and with their operations and failures. This means that any Minister of Rural must build linkages and think both within, and across, sectors–not just agriculture, infrastructure and natural resources.

Creating those linkages is no simple task. In fact, our systems of cabinet-based government and bureaucracies evolved to develop policies in a compartmentalized way. Seeking to address the inter-related issues that face rural communities solely with economic development has a demonstrated history in this country, but it’s not always successful for these rural communities.

Guide dog walk to be held

By Lori Larsen

Pet Valu and the Lions Foundation of Canada Dog Guides are once again teaming up to bring awareness to the important role dog guides play in many facets of life, during the Pet Valu Walk for Dog Guides to be held on June 2 beginning at the Bill Fowler Centre (5402-48 Avenue).

Registration is at noon and the walk begins at 1 p.m.

The Lions Foundation of Canada Dog Guides provides service dogs to Canadians, free of charge, for a variety of programs including: Canine Vision Dog Guides, for people who are blind or visually impaired, Hearing Dog Guides, for people who are deaf or hard of hearing, Service Dog Guides, for people with a physical disability, Seizure Response Dog Guides, for people who have epilepsy, Autism Assistance Dog Guides, for children on the autism spectrum, Diabetic Alert Dog Guides, for people who have diabetes with hypoglycemic unawareness and Support Dog Guides, for professional agencies with individuals in traumatic situations.

Brianna Brown and her dog guide Beacon.

To date, more than 3,000 Dog Guides have been placed with individuals across Canada including a Camrose resident who is one of the fortunate recipients of a Lions Foundation Diabetic Alert Dog Guide.

Since receiving her Diabetic Alert Dog Beacon, Brianna Brown has felt a new sense of comfort.

“Beacon has given me a sense of security and independence, especially moving away from home and living on my own while attending Red Deer College,” said Brianna. “It’s comforting to know that there is someone always by my side keeping their nose out for me.”

Brianna and Beacon will be joining others from Camrose and area, on June 2 during the Walk for Dog Guides. She will be available for questions prior to the walk and will share with participants the vital role these dogs play in the lives of every person who is blessed with receiving one.

The cost of raising, training and placing a Dog Guide with an individual in need is approximately

$25,000, none of which is borne by the applicant.

All the costs are covered through generous donations by individuals, businesses, corporations and fundraisers such as the Pet Valu Walk for Dog Guides, which are run by community volunteers.

This year marks the fourth year that the Camrose Swans and Roses Lions Club has co-hosted the event and helped to raise funds that impact the lives of so many.

Bring your family, friends, neighbours and don’t forget your furry four-legged companions (pets are most certainly welcome) to join others in a walk that brings about positive changes in someone’s life.

For more information, to make a donation or to register for the walk, visit www.walkfordogguides. com.

ÉCCHS graduands head for new adventures

By Lori Larsen

Students Gillian Nimmo-James and Emma-Leigh Simonot paid tribute to the teachers and, despite some humourous quips such as “pushing Mr. Lyster into his long overdue retirement”, Nimmo-James and Simonot said that teaching was one of the most underappreciated jobs.

In response, ÉCCHS teachers Andrew Lyster and Stephen Cole said they had learned as much from the students as the students have from them. Lyster advised graduates to look after each other, have fun and focus on the positives. “Know we are all proud of what you have accomplished and be kind to one another.” Cole quoted some ironic life lessons from Shakespeare. “You have taught us as well, to be patient, have a sense of humour and to be kind.”

Thanking parents for their continual support and to “celebrate you helping us get to this point in our lives”, students Anika Briscoe and Casandra Law rounded the tribute to parents off by saying “all the memories we have made, the talks we have had, the love we have shared is what makes us who we are today.”

The response of Ron Briscoe and Ray Law, on behalf of parents, was filled with some humourous anecdotes with a loving twist: “We are very proud of you, where you started and where you are today.” Briscoe said, offering an inspiring message, “You can fail at what you don’t want, so you might as well take a chance at doing what you love.”

Students Taylor Schultz, left and Davis Herman rock the crowd as they proceed to their seats.

Special guest speaker, Karen Nelson, introduced by students Lyndsey Smith and ÉCCHS principal Todd Sieben opened the Tadhg Barker, advised graduates to pay heed afternoon ceremony by welcoming everyone to the theme of the event and go out and begin and recognizing the students of the class of all new adventures. “Here you are today so 2019 as they embark upon, in reference to the much older, so much wiser and so much better theme of the Spring Exercises, new adventures. dressed.”

“After the next month and a half or so, adventure is out there awaiting you all.”

Sieben shared with students his top seven pieces of advice beginning with stating that the experience they gain along the way will help define both the person and their path. The second was to not let the noise of others’ opinions drown out their own inner voice. Thirdly, be true to yourself. Fourth, selflessness is the best, yet hardest, habit one can form. Five, take care of, have compassion for and take it easy on yourselves from time to time. Six, if you can’t do the little things right, you can’t do the big things well. Finally, go live a good life.

Following the invocation given by Clayton Milgate and Manfred Boller and greetings on behalf of the Battle River School Division board City of Camrose representative Valerie Sims, coordinators of ceremonies Kaden Feddema and Kenzie Yurkoski got the ball rolling and the audience smiling with their fun antics and amusing introductions. École Camrose Composite High School Class of 2019 were presented with their certificates (upon success of graduation) during the Spring Exercises held on May 10 at the Encana Arena.

In a sea of glitz and glamour, sparkles, frills, suits and ties, a procession of students were honoured by ÉCCHS staff and teachers, special guests, friends and family.

Coordinators of Ceremonies Kaden Feddema, left, and Kenzie Yurkoski were able to get the afternoon ceremony off to a fun start.

Paying tribute to the many friends made throughout school years, students Tatiana Howard and Courtney Bratrud spoke about the memorable moments spent with friends and how a friend is someone who understands your past, believes in your future and accepts you just the way you are.

Nelson spoke about the many and varied interests and passions of individual students from the academic classes to the extracurricular activities, but also made reference to how high school, for some students, was something to simply get through. “Learning was difficult, noon hours were long, connections were not easily created. If you were one of those students, I truly commend you for your courage and perseverance.

“A life of ease is easy; a life of challenge and growth builds character,” said Nelson, offering some life lessons of her own that included finding balance, being kind, analyzing worries, removing the word ‘should’ from vocabulary, genuinely smiling and finally having integrity.

The valedictory address was presented by ÉCCHS Grade 12 student Leif Hvenegaard.

Hvenegaard thanked teachers, friends and parents for their continual support in each student’s journey. He also made reference to the surfeit of accomplishments of the academic, athletic, arts and French immersion programs of ÉCCHS. “As we conclude our four years of adventure here at the École Camrose Composite High School and begin a new chapter of our lives, we

Committee has big plans for Christmas in and around Camrose

By Lori Larsen

5670-48 Avenue, Camrose, AB T4V 0J9 780.672.4095 | camhonda.ca

W hile it might not be the number one topic on peoples’ minds right now, a committee comprised of members from the City of Camrose and Camrose County are determined to make this Christmas season the best and biggest yet.

Thinking of ways to make Camrose and Camrose County an even better place to live and visit, Tourism Camrose executive director Jennifer Filip proposed an idea to build excitement and fun around the Christmas season by promoting existing events and initiatives and drawing upon members of organizations and the community for even more.

“Designated Garlands and Gatherings, the initiative and subsequent committee, was formed as a way to collaborate on spreading similar messaging that would encourage visitors and residents to experience all that the Camrose region has to offer during the holiday season,” explained Filip. “With the many events and activities throughout the City and County, this is a way to

work together and cross promote the many activities, events and of course shopping.”

As the finer details get ironed out and ideas fledge into realities, the committee will continue to build on the hype by providing details on Facebook.

For now, residents can look forward to many of the timestamped traditions as well as new fun and exciting events such as a contest being planned to name a lit up Marler Drive, with prizes being awarded for the best name.

All joking aside, where you take your vehicle after an accident is the most important decision you can make. Two reasons: Number 1: You need to take it to a shop certified by the world’s leading auto manufacturers.

Number 2: You need someone you can trust, and that’s The Auto Shoppe in Camrose.
