a hint of spring

There isn’t a golf enthusiast in the area who hasn’t been riding the weather roller coaster the last couple of weeks.

Melting snow and temperatures which suggest

brings on a temporary state of mild euphoria for those who love the game. This emotion is quickly doused, however, when Mother Nature tees up and delivers

a cold north wind, often with driving snow, directly down the fairway.

The adverse spring weather isn’t the only set-back for an early start to the season at Camrose Golf Course. A waterline break in recent weeks resulted in significant

damage in the Pro Shop. A major renovation is currently underway. Membership sales previously scheduled to take place April 2 – 7 in the Pro Shop

will be relocated to the restaurant area of the building.

No two people are more ready for permanent greens and open fairways than Michael and Andrew

Harrison, two local golfers who rank among the best, province-wide in the sport, in their age group.

SubmittedCrowfoot Member of Parlia-

ment Kevin Sorenson is pleased with Economic Action Plan 2013’s commitment to continue focusing on creating jobs, eco-nomic growth and long-term prosperity.

“Keeping taxes low and

our steadfast commitment to a balanced federal budget by 2015 is good news for Alberta workers and their families,” said Sorenson.

Sorenson said the bud-get takes action by helping Canadians actually connect with jobs they want; continu-ing to build infrastructure with a new Building Canada Plan; and, working to support high-quality, value-added jobs in important sectors of the Canadian economy.

"These initiatives will be useful in our riding. We

received funding from the first Building Canada Fund. Our local agriculture and energy sectors will benefit from this budget providing: tax relief for new manufactur-ing equipment; a new Can-ada Job Grant; the creation of further opportunities for apprentices; and, the largest investment in job creating infrastructure in the history of Canada.

Sorenson said “Budget 2013’s Community Improve-ment Fund will work to sup-port local community projects

in communities in our riding, and across Canada.

"I hope we can work with the new P3 Canada Fund – to support innovative ways to build infrastructure proj-ects faster and provide better value for taxpayers through public-private partnerships.”

Sorenson said since the depth of the global economic recession, the Canadian econ-omy has created over 950,000 net new jobs – the best record among advanced economies.

"In Economic Action Plan 2012, we made a choice. We

chose to take decisive action to ensure our economy will create good jobs and sustain a higher quality of life for hard-working Canadian families. Economic Action Plan 2013 builds on the strong founda-tion we laid last year – in fact, the strong foundation we have laid since 2006 – to create jobs, growth and long-term prosperity for hardworking Canadian families."

Council approves City Hall budget

By Dan JensenCamrose City council has

approved the use of $17.25 mil-lion in Municipal Sustainability Initiative (MSI) and $1 million in reserve funds for the construction of the new city hall.

Council was forced to recon-sider its previous funding model March 18 after a detailed report from City administration on the project's total costs.

"Based on known costs and current estimates the anticipated total cost for all work related to the construction of a new City Hall facility is $18,250,000," said the report.

Administration had pointed out at a meeting in November that a cost of $16 million for the city hall was reasonable for a pre-tender estimate but that the variability of tender submissions could be in the range of plus or minus 20 per cent, resulting in total project costs coming in at between $12.8 and $19.2 million.

The new funding plan calls for the City to use $5 million in MSI funds in 2013, $10 million in 2014 and $2.25 million in 2015.

The amount of MSI funding originally budgeted for the proj-ect was $15 million.

City manager Damian Herle told council the first step for admin-istration is to present a revised MSI funding plan to the province.

"As an already approved project within the MSI program the City Hall project would be eligible for additional MSI fund-ing to finance the remaining anticipated costs."

The provincial government has assured the City that MSI funding will continue in the future at the same levels it is now.

Mayor Marshall Chalmers expressed confidence the City will be able to get the additional pro-vincial dollars needed to proceed.

"There are many projects underway in the province that

are using MSI funds so I don't think that will be a problem.

Councillor Greg Wood said he would like to have written confirmation from the province that the future MSI funding will be available no matter what.

"The (additional MSI) money we are talking about is money that would be due us in three years."

Wood also expressed concern over what he felt was an attempt by council to push the project through without the necessary discussions on whether or not the city hall project is the correct use of additional MSI funds.

City councillor Max Lind-strand told council the time has come for council to stop talking about the City Hall and let the work get started.

"It is clear that we need a new City Hall and we are not going to get a better price."

"The province is continuing to be a funding source so that we will not have to incur any addi-tional indebtedness."

Councillor Howard said the key for council is determining how much risk it is willing to take.

"Minister (Doug) Griffiths (Minister of Municipal Affairs) has indicated that the original commitment to MSI will be hon-oured but that it may not be hon-oured in the original time frame."

Councillor Gerry Galenza questioned whether the cur-rent council is tying the hands of future councils by committing MSI funds that have not yet been received.

"Using all the MSI funds doesn't leave much leeway for future councils to address future projects other than debentures," he said.

Councillor Lindstrand said he would rather council use the money that is pledged

through the MSI program than go into debt and have to pay interest.

"In my personal life if I have cash for something I don't take out a loan."

Lindstrand expressed confi-dence in the City's ability with its current debt situation to take on a future debenture if that was needed.

"The City of Camrose has reduced its indebtedness by $10 million in the years I have been on council. We are reducing our debt at a rate of $2 million a year."

City financial services gen-eral manager Diane Urkow told council that a 20-year debenture of $2 million for the city hall would result in annual payments of $135,000 charged to the tax levy. She further explained the City's debenture debt will start to drop off significantly by the year 2016-17, leaving council with another $180,000 annually to spend on other projects.

Costs included in the city hall's $18.25 million price tag include renovations to the Mirror Lake Centre for the relocation of staff, demolition and construction of a new city hall facility, hard surfaced parking and lane pav-ing, permit fees, and design and construction management fees.

Council was given assur-ances by administration that the city hall project complies with the land use bylaw in terms of build-ing setbacks and building height, and conforms with the City's Downtown Action Plan. Accord-ing to the City's planning offi-cer, four-storey buildings only need additional setbacks if they are located in residential areas.

Administration also noted that while the final design of the facility will not be LEED certi-fied, it has incorporated many practices which will allow it to be operated in a sustainable man-

ner over the life expectancy of the building.

The city hall development will supply a total of 99 off-street parking stalls, in addition to approximately 20 on-street parking stalls on 50 Avenue, 52 Street and 52A Street. City manager Damian Herle told council that the City has had ongoing discussions with the province of Alberta regarding the possible sale of the three parcels which are located imme-diately south of the existing City Hall building.

"Administration is confident that the sale of these parcels to the City can be finalized in short order," said Herle. "An acquisition of these parcels by the City in 2013 will allow the parking lot upgrades to be undertaken fol-lowing the completion of the city hall facility.

The city hall design team provided assurances that the weeping tile and sump systems for the new city hall are designed to accommodate flows in excess of the calculated groundwater flow rate.

Issues that led to a demon-strated need for the new city hall include the current age and con-dition of the existing facility and an insufficient amount of space in the current building, caused partly by the closure of the lower part due to mould.

The Camrose Senior Centre Society has advised it is support-ive of the City's plans to move staff to the Mirror Lake Centre while the new city hall is being built, provided it has continued access to the auditorium.

"They don't believe the office structure will be to their benefit when the City moves out so we will do our best to encourage a two-year time frame on con-struction and will not be putting up any permanent walls," said Herle.

Tender forCity Hallproject

has beenawarded

All tenderswere closeto each othersays reportBy Dan Jensen

City council has accept-ed a tender of $13,447,740 plus GST from Bird Man-agement Ltd. for the construction of the new City Hall facility and the demolition of the existing one.

The invitation to ten-der was issued on Feb. 8 and was posted on websites for the Alberta Purchasing Connection, the Edmonton Construction Association and the Calgary Construc-tion Association. The invi-tation also included a man-datory site visit and facility walkthrough for contrac-tors, which was conducted Feb. 20.

The bids were reviewed March 11 by a panel con-sisting of City manager Damian Herle, acting gen-eral manager of engineer-ing services Jeremy Enar-son, project manager Joce-lyn Kiew and two represen-tatives from the architects – Mike Turner and Viv-ian Manasc with Manasc Isaac. Bids were weighted according to price, relevant experience on similar proj-ects, use of qualified sub-contractors, key personnel on the project team and the construction/phasing schedule.

"Bird Management Ltd. received 439 points and their bid has been verified by myself to be compliant to all the con-ditions as noted in the tender documents," said Kiew.

The prices for all tenders were within $1,565,000 of each other.

"When you have bids that are that close to each other you know you have a good bid package," said Kiew.

Bird Management Ltd. has indicated to the City that it is likely to subcon-tract some of the work to a few local businesses.

Council also accepted a tender of $245,198 plus GST from Read Contract-ing Ltd. for the interior renovations to the Mirror Lake Centre.

The renovations will accommodate the reloca-tion of existing City Hall staff in advance of the planned construction of the new city hall facil-ity and demolition of the existing one.

By Dan JensenGreg Wood has resigned his

position as City councillor.Meeting with The Camrose

Booster March 21, Wood said he is "unwilling to sit and watch what I perceive to be an indiffer-ence towards the City's financial well-being by administration and council."

Wood's frustrations came to a head at a March 18 meeting in which council passed a motion to approve the construction of the new City Hall with provincial funding – some of it to come in the future.

Council later in the meeting received a report from adminis-tration expressing concern over the negative impact on the City of recent provincial funding cuts.

"For no one to connect the dots between those two to me was concerning," said Wood. "On the one hand we are spending pro-vincial money that isn't certain and in the next breath we are expressing concern over the fact the province is now cutting funds."

Wood said the recommen-dation by administration and approval by council of the City Hall project is the equivalent of launching a rocket with a pre-flight check and weather report that is six months old.

"Will it fly? Probably, but that's an awful risk to take with 17,000 passengers on board. In good conscience I felt I could no longer be a part of that type of decision making."

Wood feels the recent actions go against all the good work council has done over the last two and a half years to get a handle on the financial situation.

"One of my goals coming onto council was to see what was going on," said Wood, a chartered accoun-tant with Harberg Nikiforuk Wood LLP. "We worked hard to set guide-lines for reserves and see how the land fund truly operated. Those were all in the past not adequately understood by council."

Wood said the issue for him was not whether City Hall was good or bad, but how quickly council went from finding out how much the project would cost to voting to approve it.

"The problem is that not everybody shed an opinion on how good or bad it was to use an extra $2.2 million in MSI fund-ing, or whether there was a better way to fund it. It was, 'oh let's get it done.' Council had never had any, or has never to date received details on the tenders or a prop-er analysis of how that worked. The whole idea when we went to meetings every other week again was that nothing would ever hit council that hadn't hit committee (of the whole) two weeks before. With the idea that ok, we could get that information digested and then two weeks later approve it. This just went bang bang bang."

Wood said it has been a struggle over the last two and a half years to balance his profes-sional career with his responsi-bilities as a City councillor.

"I determined that my frus-tration level had reached a point where it (council) just wasn't an effective use of my time anymore. If I am not accomplishing any-thing there for the taxpayers then why am I there?"

Wood expressed apprecia-tion to everyone who supported him while he served on City council.

Wood resignsfrom council

By Dan JensenCity council has given its

support to a City Center Camrose application to Alberta Historical Resources Foundation's revised Main Street Program for residu-al funding.

City manager Damian Her-le told council March 18 that CCC is hoping to access half of the approximately $121,864 that is available this year and to further carry on with expan-sion of the 2013 projects in 2014.

"In the year 2014 application would be made for the remainder

of the residual funds to support the projects," said Herle.

City Center Camrose is pro-posing to use the funds to render some of the buildings on main street to show the property owner how the front of his or her build-ing would look with a variety of paint jobs, put up new banners that support and unify the CCC area, design brackets for blade signs as well as brackets for ban-ner poles, and establish a reim-bursement program to subsidize businesses for the purchase of brackets for blade signs.

"We are excited about the

possibility of keeping City Cen-ter vital and aesthetically pleas-ing, which we know contributes to the betterment of the whole of Camrose as well as positive experiences of visitors and future businesses and Camrosians," said CCC president Audrey Pfan-nmuller.

The City of Camrose and CCC were members of the Alber-ta Historical Resources Founda-tion's Main Street program from 2000 to 2008.

"In 2007 and 2008 funds were provided by the Alberta Historic Resources Foundation to

the City of Camrose for projects that did not materialize," said Herle. "The City is the steward of the funding."

The rules of the revised Alberta Historical Resources Foundation Main Street Pro-gram require City Center Cam-rose or the City of Camrose to hire a program coordinator.

"The administration is rec-ommending that the coordina-tor be employed by City Cen-ter Camrose," said Herle. "It appears that salary subsidiza-tion of the coordinator's position is required."

PENPOINTSby Berdie Fowler

New study findsoilsands development pollutes lakes

Dr. David Schindler, professor of ecology at the University of Alberta, and his team of researchers caused quite a stir in 2010 when their study concluded that “oilsands development is contaminating the Athabasca River watershed by both airborne and waterborne pathways.” As part of the evidence, Schindler’s group produced a deformed fish that had been drawn from Lake Athabasca, downstream from oilsands activity.

In response to this, both the Alberta and the federal gov-ernments appointed their own scientists to review Schindler’s findings.

In January, 2013, the results of a joint study by scientists at Queen’s University in Kingston, Ontario, and Environment Canada were released. After studying core samples from five lakes near mining operations in Fort McMurray, and one lake as far away as ninety kilometres, this joint venture found that “the levels of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in all six lakes had increased from 2-1/2 times to 23 times the levels fifty years ago before oilsands development began in the region.

PAHs are cancer-causing chemicals that are released when things are burned. We are told that “they can occur natu-rally, from forest fires, volcanic activity and geological deposits, but burning petroleum in the production of the oilsands leaves a particular fingerprint so the scientists were able to trace where the PAHs in the core samples came from.”

Biologist John Smol from Queen’s University, one of the study’s authors, acknowledged that oilsands operators have, since 1990, reduced greenhouses gases and other contaminants by close to 40 per cent, “But,” he adds, “this report reminds us of the need for continuing cumulative monitoring to be sure we don’t get into situations where cumulative levels do get past acceptable levels.” Smol noted that the scientists involved in the study were surprised to find that the footprint of the oilsands operations had extended as far as 90 kilometres.

The study warns that the chemical deposits will increase as oilsands production in northern Alberta is expected to triple in size in the next 25 years. In response, Peter Kent, federal environment minister, gave credit to oilsands developers for trying to reduce pollutants resulting from their operations, but added that the new federal-provincial monitoring system will play a big part in keeping an eye on contaminants coming from the oilsands.

In conclusion, I note that the study recommends cumula-tive monitoring, and the federal-provincial alliance promises an alert monitoring system. We need to do more than watch; we need to actually take preventive measures to assure the protection of our life-sustaining waters. Let us be aware that the study warns of unknown long-term ecological effects of the PAHs, as increasing amounts of the chemicals occur in freshwater lakes and are absorbed by fish, birds and up the food chain to humans. We must protect life-sustaining water wherever it is – our survival depends on it.

Province gathers inputon new energy regulatorBy Murray Green

Camrose and district resi-dents gave their input to help build the rules and regulations for the new Alberta Energy Reg-ulator at the Camrose Regional Exhibition on March 5. However, the group of about 25 attendees were made up mostly of invited people in the oil and gas business and only a third were local land-owners, which may have skewed the feedback.

“We committed to consult-ing with Albertans when we passed the Responsible Energy Development Act in the fall, and we’re following through on that promise,” said energy minister Ken Hughes. “Involvement from Albertans is essential – we need Albertans’ input to ensure this regulator is effective and efficient for landowners, for Albertans and for industry.”

Landowners, outnumbered about three to one, learned that they may receive more notice of work that is to be done on their land, but do not have any options if they disagree with the noti-fication arrangements. In fact, landowners who don't comply could face penalties of $50,000 to $150,000 in fines.

The regulator, which begins operations in June, marks a new phase of energy regulation for the province. Through the Respon-sible Energy Development Act (REDA) that was passed last December, the province claims it is protecting and improving participation rights for landown-ers, while ensuring industry has an effective, efficient and stream-lined regulatory process.

"If there was a commonal-ity of the engagement process, it is that Albertans want clar-ity of process," said Wade Clark, executive director, of the Policy and Regulatory Alignment in the energy office. "We have heard this from industry, landowners and First Nations. They want to know what the target is and they will hit the target."

The REDA was passed to create a single regulator for oil, gas, oil sands and coal projects in the province. Under the act, the new regulator will operate

at arm’s length from the Gov-ernment of Alberta, under the direction of an appointed board of directors and chief executive officer.

The legislation also gives the regulator the authority to administer the Public Lands Act, the Environmental Protec-tion and Enhancement Act and the Water Act, with regards to energy development. The only entity not under the regulator's umbrella is the Alberta Surface Rights Federation, which several people questioned in Camrose.

Discussions at the CRE included pre-determined topics of engaging the process, protect-ing interests of Albertans and landowner registry. "Going for-ward, some of the ideas around dispute resolutions are welcome," said Wade. "How to avoid expen-sive disputes during the process, but still have concerns from the participants addressed. We are getting some good ideas from all of the locations on this," said Wade. "This will help us build a good tool box for this regulator to do a better job once they are implemented."

Most residents just want more information. "People want to know what is coming, rather than being informed after the fact that something just hap-pened on your land or in your community," added Wade. "We are hearing a lot about notice. People have felt in the past that they were disengaged in the pro-cess. Industry does plan ahead, and there is an opportunity to give a greater degree of notice when it is appropriate."

In addition to the single reg-ulator, the government is chang-ing how it sets energy-related policy.

The policy management office will be responsible for pro-viding clear policy guidance to the new regulator. The office is also tasked with creating an effective process to engage Alber-tans in the policy-making process earlier, rather than after deci-sions are made. The office is also tasked with developing perfor-mance measures.

The single regulator is one

part of the province’s commit-ment to improve integration of its resource system. This integra-tion sets and achieves the envi-ronmental, economic and social outcomes Albertans expect from resource development, while maintaining the social licence to develop resources.

A task force was established in March 2010 to do a compre-hensive upstream oil and gas reg-ulatory review and recommend system level reforms to ensure Alberta has a modern, efficient, outcomes-based and competitive regulatory system that contin-ues to maintain Alberta’s strong commitment to environmental management, public safety, and resource conservation.

Together, six recommenda-tions will ensure Alberta has a regulatory system that benefits Alberta's and Canada's economy. Wade suggested that this would make Alberta's environmental process the "world's best."

Those recommendations include establishing a policy management office; establishing a single oil, gas, oil sands and coal regulator; providing a clear public engagement process; establish-ing a common risk assessment and management approach; establishing a performance mea-surement framework and public reporting mechanism; and devel-oping an effective mechanism to address landowner concerns.

"It has been incredibly valu-able to go into these communi-ties because Alberta is a diverse place," said Wade. "There is a lot of wisdom and know-how out there. Sessions like this improve the product at the end of the day because we have all aspects of the community looking at the issue. Things that we might miss in Edmonton are coming out when we visit smaller com-munities."

Albertans who are unable to take part in the facilitated sessions can provide their ideas online until March 29. The sur-vey, session registration and other information can be found at http://www.energy.alberta.ca/Initiatives/RegulatoryEnhance-ment.asp.

Doctors' DayDid you know that physi-

cians have their own national holiday? Each year physicians

are recognized on March 30, also known as National Doctors' Day.

The Camrose and Area Phy-sician Attraction and Reten-tion Committee would like to wish all the Camrose and Area Physicians a Happy National Doctors' Day. The Committee has been work-ing diligently over the past year towards a sustainable system for physician attrac-tion, recruitment support, and retention that will ensure ongoing physician services for our community.

We truly appreciate the efforts, dedication and commit-ment of all the Camrose and Area Physicians to our commu-

nity. We recognize the life of a doctor is busy, often balancing their schedules between clinic visits, being on-call, rounds of their in-patients at the hospital and add in the consultations and meetings equals a hectic “day at the office.”

If you have an appointment with your doctor this week, it’s a great time to say thank you to your doctor and let them know how much our community appreciates all they do.

From the Camrose and Area Physician Attraction and Reten-tion Committee.

Steele, TheSideguysto play inRosalind

By Murray GreenFormer Canadian Coun-

try Music Association inde-pendent male artist of the year Duane Steele and The Sideguys will be performing a concert and dance at the Rosalind Community Hall on Saturday, April 6.

Duane will be playing in a concert style setting, whereas The Sideguys will follow in a dance format.

Duane, of Hines Creek, is among Canada’s top country record-ing artists and songwriters, with a professional career dating back to 1984. He remembers parties at his parents' home with everyone sitting around singing and playing various instruments. As teenag-ers Duane and his cousins started a band spending summers and weekends playing for weddings and dances.

In 1984, Duane’s professional career began, fronting the band Rock ‘N’ Horse. Their album, Highways, was released in 1991. Despite top 20 singles, non-stop

Duane Steele

touring, and a Juno nomination for Country Band of the Year, Rock ‘N’ Horse disbanded in 1993. Duane took this opportunity to pursue his goals as a recording artist and songwriter, landing a publishing contract with Warner Chapel in Nashville.

In 1995, a showcase at Cana-dian Country Music Week in Calgary resulted in his sign-ing a recording contract with Mercury Canada. Duane’s solo debut album PO Box 423 was released in February 1996 and he had his first three singles go

top five on the Canadian Coun-try Charts, including the num-ber one hit “Anita Got Mar-ried.” His sophomore release “This Is The Life” was released a year and a half later and furthered his presence on the Canadian music charts with all six singles released achiev-ing Top 30 chart position (two becoming Top 10 hits). In sup-port of both albums Duane released seven music videos on CMT (three of which went to number one).

Continued from page 15Duane opened for some

of the hottest acts in country music including Shania Twain, Terri Clark, Trisha Yearwood, Sammy Kershaw, and Prairie Oyster. In 1997, Duane was the winner of the CCMA for Vocal Collaboration of the Year with Lisa Brokop for the single “Two Names On An Overpass.”

In the spring of 1999 Duane returned to Canada to focus on his recording career. Duane's third solo album I’ll Be Alright was released in August 2000 with seven singles released to radio and three videos released to CMT (Country Music Tele-vision). He was rewarded for his first independently released album by winning the Indepen-dent Male Vocalist of the Year Award by the CCMA.

Duane released Set List in 2004, which contained 17 radio singles from his three previous solo albums and three new songs that were released to radio. A video for the song “Better Man” was filmed in Calgary for CMT.

Two years later Duane released Ghost Town, which he co-produced with recording artist, songwriter and produc-er Steve Fox. He is extremely proud of this 100 per cent Cana-dian album. This was his first time assisting with the produc-tion side of the recording pro-cess. Duane’s pure voice and natural stage presence makes his live shows a must see. Fans relate to his lyrics and song writing style.

Then you can dance the night away with The Sideguys. The band name reflects that they are a group of four guys, who are usually members of a

band performing with a variety of country music recording art-ists, all over the world.

Dylan Gillett, Matty McKay, Mark Branconnier (a four-time CCMA drummer of the year and original Doc Walker member), and Tyler Vollrath of Bawlf.

Tyler is a CCMA fiddle player of the year. "Combined we have performed with artists such as Carolyn Dawn John-son, Jason McCoy, Adam Greg-ory, Doc Walker, Gord Bamford, Dean Brody, Deric Ruttan and Jo Hikk, just to name a few," said Tyler.

The dance band will be sure to please all ages with musical preferences covering classic and modern country, to top 40 dance and rock later in the night.

"I'm really looking forward to introducing the community I've lived in for the past five years to some of my musician buddies who are extremely tal-ented and great guys in gen-eral," shared Tyler. "Until now, most of the people out here only know me from helping at Rosalind School with my children, or playing men's slow pitch. I have not done a lot of performing in the area with the exception of the Big Valley Jamboree. I'm excited to be able to show them the musical side of me."

The Rosalind Hall doors open at 6 p.m. and the concert will begin at 7 p.m. A dance will follow at 9 p.m. Advance ticket purchases are highly recom-mended, and they can be picked up at the Bawlf UFA, Bawlf Gen-eral Store, Rosalind Post Office, Rosalind Viterra, and if not sold out, can also be purchased at the door.

Pet lovers showed lots of heart for local animalsBy Murray Green

Love was in the air on Valen-tine's Day. Local residents shared support for animals by partici-pating in the Global Pet Foods annual Show Us Your Heart (Valentine’s theme) fund-raising campaign, which collected money for animal shelters, Feb. 2 to 16.

Camrose, Global Pet Foods store owner Chris Zamora donat-ed $2,749 to the Battle River Animal Protection Society. The society (BRAPS) is a non-profit organization operated solely by volunteers and funded by public donation.

"From the bottom of my heart, I would like to thank everyone who helped make this such a success," said Chris. "The Camrose store made the top 15 out of 158 stores nationally. The great thing about the Show Us Your Heart campaign is that all of the money stays in the com-munity to help Camrose and area animals."

BRAPS advocates for ani-mals in the Battle River area by protecting them from neglect, abuse and abandonment. Global Pets in Camrose and Wetaskiwin has been supporting the society for the last six years. For more info on BRAPS visit www.braps.ca.

This year the nation-wide company raised $170,000, up from $154,000 last year. The money raised pays for veterinar-

ian bills and to foster homes that take care of the animals until they can be adopted.

BRAPS will be holding an adoption day at the store with six to eight cats or kittens, on April 20. The cats will be up for adoption from noon to 4 p.m. Currently, the society has about 30 cats that are looking for a good home. Contact BRAPS at [email protected], phone 780-678-5713 or 780-679-5607 for more infor-mation.

Humphrey receives coveted Sisters of Providence awardBy Murray Green

Diagnostic imaging pro-fessional Marcy Humphrey of the Covenant Health St. Mary's Camrose Hospital was honoured with the Sisters of Providence award at the Mile-stones Long Service Celebra-tions Banquet at the Camrose Resort Casino on March 14.

"Each one of you receiving an award exemplifies the mis-sion and vision of Covenant Health and you have dem-onstrated your commitment to quality care. Each person here realizes that you have gone the extra mile in mak-ing a difference to all those that we serve," said Cherylyn Antymniuk, executive director of St. Mary's.

Two staff members were nominated for the Sisters of Providence Award. "Marcy is always professional, positive, excellent with patients and is a strong team player," said Sister Bernadine Bokenfohr. "Marcy's knowledge, work eth-ic, professionalism, dedication to service and her gift for col-laborating emulates qualities of the Sister's legacy."

Sister Bernadine added "She unselfishly gives of her-self by being supportive and demonstrates respect and integrity. Marcy goes out of her way to provide additional comfort to patients and has a smile so infectious and wel-coming for each person that she encounters," said Sister Bernadine. "She takes the ini-tiative in standards of practice and is constantly researching for ways that will benefit new procedures. We feel privileged to work with Marcy."

Dani Zubkowski was also nominated for the highest hon-our, the Sisters of Providence award. "Although only one per-son can win the award, I wish to thank Dani for her unself-ish dedication to Covenant Health St. Mary's Hospital," added Sister Bernadine of the founding Sisters of Providence of St. Vincent du Paul, who made the presentation with St. Mary's Foundation chair Alan Heyhurst to Marcy.

Unit 5 clerk Kathryn Lohr was honoured for her 35 years of service by unit manager Pauline Maron.

Receiving 30 year mile-stone long service awards were Unit 3 registered nurse Michele Iwanus, emergen-cy registered nurse Bernie Gumpinger and Unit 2 regis-tered nurse Michele Laird.

By Murray GreenCharlie Killam School athlete

Braxtyn Horbay earned a silver medal in the girls' 800 metre race at the Edmonton Journal 35th Annual Indoor Games on March 16.

Braxtyn first thought she would be receiving the bronze medal. But, even a photo finish couldn't solve the riddle of whether the Camrose runner placed sec-ond or third with a time of 2:26.75 in the finals behind a Leduc Junior High student.

"I was really excited to receive a silver medal. Last year, I quali-fied first, but I couldn't go to the finals because of soccer provin-cials," explained Braxtyn. "I didn't expect to do as well as I did and shave off five seconds from my qualifying time in the finals. That was my goal, to be competitive. I was satisfied with the result."

Braxtyn cross trains with soc-cer, volleyball, basketball, running and now badminton. "The cross training I had was good because

we didn't have a lot of time to train for the Indoor Games," said Braxtyn. "It was hard because I like to run outside, but not in the winter. That part was difficult." The athletes ran in the gym or around the EnCana Arena track to prepare for the Games.

The Grade 9 student likes to be the front runner to set the pace of the race. "I like to start out in the first group and I was the leader for the first two laps. That is where I wanted to be," said Braxtyn. "Before the race, I had to calm myself down and just focus on doing the best that I can."

Braxtyn knew the race was close, but wasn't expecting a pho-to finish at the end. "We went over the line at about the same time, so I didn't know where I finished. The marshals gave us a sheet indicating that I was third. When it came time for giving out the medals, I was told the photo couldn't determine who was sec-ond. The marshals were split, so they said we have to give out two

silver medals. That was a pretty good feeling to receive silver. I like silver better than bronze anyway."

Moving to the high school next year won't slow down the active athlete. "I want to be involved in running and partici-pate in as many sports as I can. The cross training for me helps in all sports. I don't want to give up any sports," said Braxtyn.

"It's a cool feeling competing in a fun and intense environment like the Indoor Games. All of the best runners in the province were there, so it was intense."

The Charlie Killam School boys' relay team earned a bronze in the eight by 200 metre event. The team had eight runners and two spares for the team event. Members of the bronze winning squad were Spencer Burton, Tim McKay, Bryn Ziegerman, Trevor Souminen, Taylor Connors, Tyler Young, Romar Turner, Romario Turner, Cody Milgate and Carter Rolston.

Natalya Klutz placed sixth in

the girls' 200 m dash with a time of 28.56 seconds. Juanita Hohm came in 22nd in the girls' 800 m event in 2:50.52 minutes.

The girls' relay team from Charlie Killam School placed fourth in 3:56.81 minutes. The team consisted of Sadie Borgf-jord, Alison Erskine, Cassidy Pud-lowski, Kady Isnor, Brooke Bauer, Sarena Badry, Megan Olsen, Natalya Klutz, Camryn Gau and Sydney Leslie.

Romario Turner placed sixth and Romar Turner came in ninth in the boys' 200 m dash event with times of 25.40 and 26.01. Cody Milgate and Stewart Payne placed 17th and 19th in the 800 m event with 2:28.25 and 2:33.51 times.

The athletes were coached by Jayson Boyson and Mark Cha-nasyk. "Our coaches pushed us to do our best and calmed me down before the last race. They gave us strategies and really helped us," said Braxtyn. "I wouldn't have won a silver without them."

$1299 $1699 $2599On March 22, Police

received approximately 12 colli-sion reports throughout the day and night as a result of the poor weather and road conditions. One of those reports to police involved a minor injury collision where an involved driver was transported to the hospital by EMS due to a neck injury. The adult driver was treated and released from hospi-tal; diagnosis of soft tissue injury.

March 21Police stopped and checked

a motorist and determined the 18-year-old male driver had been consuming alcohol. The young male driver provided a read-ing into an Approved Screening Device which registered a read-ing contrary to his Graduated Driver Licence (GDL). As per the legislation, the young man was issued a 30-day driver's licence suspension and the vehicle he was operating was seized /impounded for seven days.

While on patrol, police observed two males at the rear of a licensed premise. Police spoke with both males who were deter-mined to be intoxicated in a pub-lic place and alleged to police they were assaulted by the other party. One of the males had an outstand-

ing form 21 warrant for his arrest from another police agency and the second male was determined to be the subject of two court orders with conditions to abstain from the consumption of alcohol on both orders. Both males were arrested and detained in custody until sober in order to deal with their matters / charges.

March 19An adult male was arrested

on an outstanding warrant for not attending court after being served a subpoena. The male was to be a witness at a trial matter. A release hearing was conducted and the male was issued a future court date to attend.

March 18As a result of an anony-

mous complaint of a possible impaired driver, a vehicle stop was conducted. The adult female showed signs of impairment and was arrested for impaired driv-ing. The female then provided breath samples which resulted in the readings of 150mg and 140mg. She has been charged with impaired driving, driving with a blood alcohol content over the legal limit, no registration, no insurance, and misuse of a license plate. The vehicle which the female was driving was seized.

March 17Between December 2012 and

March of 2013, Police conducted a Controlled Drugs and Substanc-es investigation where a number of individuals were suspected of trafficking cocaine, methamphet-amine and marihuana in our community. As a result of the investigation, seven individuals are facing a total of 31 charges under the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act and the Crimi-nal Code. The following charges were laid:

• Camrose man, age 25, one count of trafficking in cocaine.

• Mayerthorpe woman, age 21, two counts of traffick-ing cocaine and three counts of breaching a court order.

• Camrose man, age 25, one count of trafficking cocaine, two counts of trafficking metham-phetamine, two counts of traf-ficking marihuana, possession of crack cocaine, possession of mari-huana and possession of proceeds of crime. He was also charged with possession of a weapon dan-gerous to the public and carrying a concealed weapon.

• Whitecourt woman, age 25, two counts of trafficking in cocaine.

• Edmonton woman, age 25, two counts of trafficking in cocaine.

• An Edmonton man, age 26, was arrested for trafficking cocaine. Upon searching his vehi-cle, police located a sophisticated hidden compartment which con-tained a large quantity of cocaine and money. He has been charged with Trafficking cocaine, posses-sion of cocaine for the purpose of trafficking, possession of mari-huana, possession of proceeds of crime and three counts of breach-ing a court order. He was also charged with operating a vehicle without a driver’s license.

• A youth was also charged with one count of trafficking in MDA pills.

Arrest warrants have been issued for two of the women in association to their charges.

LOCAL EXPERTSANSWER YOUR QUESTIONS

Q. How many fittings do I need for my Wedding Dress?

Usually there will be three (3) to four (4) fittings required for Bridal alterations.

Book your first fitting 3 months minimum before your wedding date.

Keep in mind the Spring Bridal season coincides with Graduation and your seamstress will be very busy. Allow plenty of time to allow all the required alterations to be finished in time for your special day.

Be ready for your first fitting by having considered what undergarments (ie: strapless bra, Spanx) and shoes you require and bring them with you.

The bridesmaids and mothers should also book alterations with the same timeline as the bride in mind.

Q. How do I know which medical expenses I can claim?

Answer provided by:

Kate Klevgaard, Senior Tax Preparer

The CRA website has a list of eligible and non-eligible medical expenses. Commonly missed medical expenses include travel expenses in cases where it is required to travel more than 40km one way to receive necessary treatment or consultation. Premiums paid to private health plans are also deductible.

What is the most beneficial way to claim them?

There are two considerations to assess in order to maximize the value of the tax credit for medical expenses.

If you are married or have a common-law partner, either one of you can make the claim for medical expenses incurred for both you and your children. You should consider which taxpayer will have a lower income. You claim the total of all eligible medical expenses minus the lower of: 3% of net income or $2,109 (2012). A deductible based from a lower income will allow you to claim a higher credit. However, you also must consider how much tax the lower income earner has payable. If they have already reduced their taxes payable to zero, the claim will be lost if it is made on their return.

Q.

Successful advertising is complex. Doing things right can be very rewarding for business. Making errors can not only be frustrating but will raise the cost of doing business.

Having a defined budget and using tried and true formulas, is essential to a successful plan. Most small businesses will need to allocate between 1.5 and 3.5% of their gross revenues back into effective promotion and client retention. As trained professionals we can assist you in refining this number for your type of business.

Donations and most sponsorship should not be automatically considered advertising. While it may be convenient from an accounting point of view to lump such “investments” in the advertising ledger column, these kinds of business expenses should not typically be considered as true advertising. In other words: there is a big difference between having a logo on the back of a soccer sweatshirt or buying a table-for-eight at a community dinner, compared to formulating a well-defined, purposeful print or electronic advertising message.

Failing to spell out business strengths and competitive advantages in a consistent, long-term plan of attack is another frequent error. Most small business make the mistake of falling

into the ‘once is enough’ mind-set.Another common mistake

is failure to choose the correct advertising option to reach the potential market. With so many choices available today, you must choose carefully and prudently.

Q. What type of window coverings will create a soft elegant feeling in my home?

Answer provided by:

Dion Currie, Interior Decorator

Roman shades combine the up-scale beauty of soft drapery with the convenient operation of a shade. We have an extensive selection of fabrics – from timeless to

ultra-modern – to create an atmosphere of high-style sophistication that’s sure to impress.

Choose flat panel style for a clean, traditional appearance or the teardrop or looped style to add bold depth and dimension. Roman shades are available with cordless lift option to help prevent injury in homes with children or pets, and our popular top down bottom up option is also available for clear view through and natural light while maintaining privacy.

There are many different ways to enhance the look of your roman shade with our finishing touches available. Trimming and fringes create a more personalized appearance and adding a wood cornice or 6” fabric valance can complete the look you desire.

Roman shade fabrics also coordinate perfectly with many other types of blinds like roller shades and sliding

panels. This means easily flowing style throughout your home.

To create the look of long lasting beauty and elegance, roman shades are the perfect style solution.

See your local expert, Dion Currie at Wideman Paint and Décor about selecting and installing the window coverings that are right for you.

Q. I want to lose weight. What would you suggest?

Answer provided by:

Yvonne Robinson, Vitamin Manager

We have two excellent lines of products that have been clinically proven to deliver safe and effective weight loss results.

1.) Our Slim Centials are extremely popular and you may have seen them endorsed on The Dr. Oz Show. These combine four of the best clinically proven weight loss nutrients. Benefits include a decrease in appetite, a decrease in fat absorption thus suppressing weight gain, helping the body burn fat more easily and blocking blood sugar conversion to body fat.

2.) ihealth has an excellent line of weight loss products also endorsed by Dr. Oz. White Kidney Bean extract is receiving much attention, thanks in large part to Dr. Oz who called it one of his favorite fat busters. Normally, when you eat carbs, your body digests it as sugar which goes straight into your bloodstream and gets deposited as fat. However iHelath White Kidney Bean Extract has been shown to prevent the stomach from breaking carbs down into simple sugars so their calories aren’t absorbed into your body.

According to Dr. Oz, you should take White Kidney Bean Extract before meals containing a starch or carb. You could also eat pure white kidney beans, but you’ll have to eat a whole lot of them to match the same benefits as a single pill of the iHealth White Kidney Bean Extract.

Safe and effective, both product lines offer a wide selection of recommended Dr. Oz weight loss products.

Tax tips for families with childrenBy Janice ZimmermanH&R Block Camrose

Claim the kids. Families will continue to benefit from a $2,191 Child Tax Credit for each child under the age of 18. This will result in a federal tax sav-ing of $328 per child. And if one parent cannot use the entire amount to lower his/her tax pay-able, the unused amount can be transferred to a spouse or common-law partner.

Credit for being active. The Children’s Fitness Amount is a non-refundable credit worth up to $500 for children under the age of 16 enrolled in an eligible program of physical activity. Not every program meets the eligi-bility guidelines so you need to ensure you know the require-ments. Make sure you keep your receipts. Disabled children will also qualify for the credit if they are under 18. Manitoba, Yukon,

Ontario, Nova Scotia and Sas-katchewan also have a provin-cial fitness credit.

Artistic credit: The new Children’s Arts Credit is another non-refundable credit worth up to $500 for children under the age of 16 enrolled in an eligible program. This could include lan-guage classes, Girl Guides or Scouts, art classes or ballet les-sons. Again, keep your receipts to make the claim.

By Murray GreenThe Camrose Kodiaks outworked and outplayed the Okotoks

Oilers in game four in an attempt to stave off elimination, but the visitors came out on top in the only number that mattered, the scoreboard.

Okotoks won 2-1 to sweep the south semifinal series on March 19. The Oilers scored late in the second period to send the Kodiaks on their heels before the intermission.

The Kodiaks clawed back to even terms with a Nelson Gadoury shorthanded tally at the 8:21 mark of the middle frame. However, less than a minute later the Oilers regained the lead on the power play. Amazingly, John Edwardh notched his fourth straight game-winning goal of the series.

Goalies can steal a game once in a while, and Okotoks net-minder did just that in the final contest. Jared D'Amico stopped 31 of 32 shots fired his way. Devin McDonald turned away 19 of 21 shots directed at the Camrose net.

The growl went out of the Kodiaks when they were blanked 5-0 by the Okotoks Oilers in the third game of the playoff series on March 18. The Oilers lead the best of seven series 3-0.

Okotoks poured the pressure on early in the game and led 2-0 after the first period. The Oilers outshot Camrose 12-9 and more importantly, had the upper hand on good scoring chances.

Although the Kodiaks clawed back with 12 shots in each of the remaining two periods, it was the Oilers that kept adding to the lead.

Okotoks goalie D'Amico stopped all 33 shots he faced for the shutout. McDonald started in net for the Kodiaks and turned away 10 of 12 shots. He gave way to Matt Gibney, who couldn't turn the team fortunes around. He stopped 11 of 14 shots.

In the second game, Okotoks scored with 34 seconds left in the middle frame to take a 2-1 lead. That was enough to win the contest.

The Kodiaks received a goal from defenceman Kirsten Odendaal on an unassisted play earlier in the period to tie the game. In a one-sided refereed game, the Oilers received only one penalty compared to six handed out to the Kodiaks.

Okotoks outshot Camrose 12-4 in the first, but it was all Kodi-aks after that. Camrose outplayed and outshot the Oilers 21-16, but failed to put the puck past D'Amico. McDonald played well making 26 saves.

In the opener, Camrose scored first on a Luc Vandale tally. Then the Oilers went to work with three straight goals to win 3-1.

Okotoks had the edge in shots 33-25, but McDonald held his ground to make 30 saves.

Five members of a Group Study Exchange are set to depart for New Zealand, and all agree it’s the opportunity of a lifetime.

The team will depart March 30th for the four-week exchange. Camrose participant Nathalie Stanley, the Education and Out-reach Coordinator for the Battle River Watershed Alliance Mem-ber, says, “It’s an amazing oppor-tunity to learn about watershed management and environmental education on the other side of the world. Plus we can enjoy the oppor-tunity to travel and network.”

The Group Study Exchange (GSE) program of The Rotary Foundation is a unique cultural and vocational exchange oppor-tunity for young business and professional men and women between the ages of 25 and 40 and in the early years of their professional lives. “It’s an oppor-tunity for the participants to fur-ther their careers by spending vocational days with managers in comparable workplaces in New Zealand. Everyone benefits from time to share programs, common problems, challenges and solu-

tions,” says Mary Drader, Rotar-ian and GSE Team leader from Drayton Valley.

The Group Study Exchange program has made ambassadors of thousands of people around the world since 1965. A total of 565 groups travelled in Group Study Exchanges this past year. These ambassadors are our key to a world of greater peace and under-standing.

“I feel so privileged to have been chosen to represent Cam-rose, our local Rotary clubs and the Rotary District and to work

with such a supportive organiza-tion,” comments Nathalie. Other team members include an RCMP officer, an instructor from Nor-quest College, and an Alberta Agriculture employee specializ-ing in Agro-environmental Poli-cy. Nathalie will be presenting on her experiences and lessons from New Zealand and local Rotary clubs and by invitation. You can follow the experience through the group’s blog at: www.nzgse2013.blogspot.ca

Rotary is a worldwide organi-zation of business and profession-

al leaders that provides humani-tarian service, encourages high ethical standards in all voca-tions, and helps build goodwill and peace in the world. There are over 1,200,000 Rotarians in 32,000 clubs in 170 coun-tries. There are 61 Rotary clubs within District 5370, with approximately 23,500 mem-bers. Rotary International District 5370 includes north-ern Alberta, northeast British Columbia and northwest Sas-katchewan and a portion of NWT.

By Dan JensenThe community of Otoxha,

Belize, has a new school, thanks to the Rotary Club of Camrose and its generous supporters.

"They are very appreciative of what Rotary and our commu-nity has done for them," explained Ron Grue, who spent a month in Otoxha from the end of January to the end of February spear-heading the school's construction.

"The school is something they have needed for quite some time."

The school was built at a total cost of approximately $23,000 with $16,000 of that amount coming from the Rotary Club of Camrose.

The remainder was collect-ed by Grue before he left from friends, relatives, businesses and Messiah Lutheran Church.

"The actual cost was $23,300," said Grue, "but that included the solar system, which was part of the Rotary budget for next year."

Grue arrived in Otoxha Jan. 26 and immediately set about staking and levelling the site.

"The trucks filled with mate-rials started arriving the second day I was there," said Grue. "The second one came at about 6 at night after I and all the people from Otoxha who were helping me had put in a long day. I was too tired to do anything so they unloaded it themselves until 9:30 at night. The truck was at the bottom of the hill so they had to form a chain gang to move all the materials, including the cement blocks, to the site. The camaraderie was just amazing. Even though it was extremely hard work they were whooping and hollering and having a good time."

The pouring of the cement floors and footings was com-pleted by the end of the first week.

"We mixed all the cement for the footings by hand but we did get a gas powered cement mixer from the church which we used for the floors," said Grue. "When we laid the blocks everything was mixed by hand."

Grue was assisted in the project by five other Camrose Rotarians. Keith Carlson and LeRoy Johnson arrived in the second week to assist with the cleaning and placement of blocks used in the walls, while Gord Schmidt, Maurice Francoeur and Ken Roberts arrived in the third.

"Gord was able to take charge of the rafters and the metal work, which I was very thankful for because I just hate metal," said Grue. "Maurice did a lot of the electrical wiring while Ken did a lot of the cutting of

wood that was needed to fill in between the rafters.

"Without the work they did I wouldn't have been able to do the project in a million years."

The arrival of the other Rotarians was welcome in anoth-er way for Grue as it meant he was able to get some of the foods he had been missing.

"The first week was espe-cially tough food wise because all I had to eat was corn tortillas and beans or corn tortillas and a little bit of rice. When the other Rotarians came they brought granola bars, eggs, and other foods to supplement what we were getting. In the first week I might have received one tiny little piece of chicken. We are so used to a protein diet and they don't have that other than

beans. And the breakfast, din-ner and supper was always the same."

The only person Grue hired for the build was a mason.

"I made an agreement with him that I would pay him $25 Canadian a day, $50 Belize, and he was happy with that, but after he worked for a week I could see he was very good and that he would actually teach the local workers how to do things, so I increased his pay to $35 a day," said Grue. "In the entire three weeks he was there I think I paid him $450 Canadian."

Grue always encouraged the workers from Otoxha to take ownership of their new school. When questioned by the locals as to what they were doing was good enough he replied by ask-

ing them whether they felt it was good enough.

"I told them it was their school not mine, and that I was just one of the guys to help out. I did a lot of work but my main job was planning and staying ahead of things so that when something was needed it was ready and available."

In the entire project, Grue never laid one cement block.

"I showed them (the people of Otoxha) how to do it with the first one but after that it was up to them," said Grue. "They were very apprehensive about trying something new but if you encour-aged them they would do it. In the end they were proud of what they had accomplished."

After the placement of the roof and the departure of his Rotarian colleagues, Grue spent the last full week assisting with the plastering of the walls, laying of all the sidewalks, and install-ing 200 linear feet of hardwood shelves for the school's library and computer room.

"It was a good feeling to get everything completed," said Grue. "I was thankful that before I left I was able to see the kids actually sitting at their desks."

Work on the final two days consisted of making improve-ments to the electrical system.

"The school had been wired I don't know how many years ago and everything was to the breaker panel but it had nev-er been connected to a power source," said Grue. "Once I got everything hooked up to the generator and it was working I told them to turn on the lights on the school. The kids thought it was really cool to have lights on in the school."

One of the things that impressed Grue the most about the project was the quality of wood that was used.

"The two by fours I had ordered for the trusses were over two inches thick and over four inches wide, and were hardwood," said Grue. "We would die to have that lumber here. That roof that we built will be there forever and always."

The school's formal dedica-tion on the final Sunday was followed by a feast of pigs cooked by the women of Otoxha.

"I brought candy for the kids and the adults and passed it around," said Grue.

Though the school is fin-ished, Grue is already looking for other ways he can help the people of Otoxha improve their quality of life.

"I would like to hook up some kind of system to bring water from a waterfall that is nearby because the water they have available in the rainy sea-son is not that great," said Grue. "I would also like to help them buy a mixer so they can grind the corn that they are feeding to the pigs. If they grind the corn the pigs will be able to get more nutrients and be able to grow faster."

The Rotary Interact Club at Our Lady of Mount Pleasant School will be painting the new school in Otoxha when they go there at the end of this month.

"There are 17 students that are going to get the experience of a lifetime being in this village for two days," said Grue. "They are actually going to be able to live and eat in people's homes as we did. To me it was an awesome experience."

“They are important”

Agnes Hansen Agnes Charlotte Jones was born on Friday,

February 19, 1926 to Walter and Talitha Jones in the Viewpoint, AB (near New Norway) district. It was here that she was raised, attended Dried Meat Lake School and spent most of her life.

She met and married the neighboring bachelor Carl Hansen on May 7, 1950.

In early 1958, they welcomed their chosen daughter Connie into their home. Never has a child been so cherished while being raised by such kind, generous and loving parents. Connie feels the same way today.

Carl and Agnes worked hard to make a good living farming over many years, and had many hired men to help them out with the spring and harvest work.

Agnes often said she should have written a book. It would have been a real entertaining read, probably on the non-fiction bestseller’s list.

She always had good meals on the table or to the field for the men, all while there was baking under way, the garden and flowers were tended, the house was well kept, cows were milked twice a day, the canning done, pickling and freezing in the fall, not to mention hauling grain. Even while doing all this, she usually had a crocheting or embroidery project on the go. In the winter she would go to ceramics and completed many beautiful pieces. No wonder she loved Sundays – the day of rest!

Carl and Agnes retired to Camrose in 1992, and she was very happy to do so. Carl passed away in 2003, and she stayed in that home until 2009, when she bought a condo in Fieldstone Place, where she made many new friends with her great neighbors! She stayed busy doing the things she enjoyed. Sadly, Carmen and Agnes never did get on their bingo outing, but Agnes did help teach Carmen the art of baking buns! Secretly, I think she preferred baking to bingo. Agnes lived also for a short time in Sunrise Village, and the recent weeks in Birch Cottage of Bethany Meadows.

It is said that Friday’s child is loving and giving, and that is such an accurate description of Agnes. Family was so important to her. She was always interested in what her grandsons were doing, where they were working, or what her nieces or nephews were up to. Holidays were always celebrated with family get-togethers and food – a table laden with yumminess, and the meals ended with groans with the men heading for couches, recliners or a place to become horizontal until they felt close to comfortable again, sometimes passing up on dessert until ‘later’. You seldom left her home without a treat in hand – perhaps a bag of cookies, squares or, if you were really lucky, a plate of leftovers for tomorrow’s lunch, a pie, or a dozen freshly baked buns! She loved her family and friends unconditionally, and was so generous with that love.

Agnes passed away peacefully on March 14, 2013, at the age of 87 years. She is survived by her loving daughter Connie (Keith) Winter; two grandsons Neil Winter (Brittany Paquette) of Camrose, and Bryan (Carmen) Winter; and two great-granddaughters Alanna and Brynn of Blackfalds. She also leaves to mourn her sisters Jean (Bryan) Braim of Camrose and Betty Hansen of Hay Lakes; and brothers and sisters-in-law George Gialet of Camrose, Lydia MacDonald of Onoway, Frieda Jones of Camrose, Alfred (Ruby) Hansen of Edmonton and Hilda Rilling of Gunn; and numerous nieces and nephews. Agnes was predeceased by her parents Walter and Talitha; her husband of 53 years, Carl; her brothers Harold, Lewis and Donald; her sisters Pearl, Evelyn, Barbara and Velma; her brothers-in-law Adam Scovoranski, Harold Hewitt, Harold Rolseth, Ted Hansen, Bob MacDonald, Albert Hansen and John Rilling; and her sisters-in-law Pearl Jones and Cristal Hansen.

A funeral service was held at 2:00 p.m., Tuesday, March 19, 2013 at Weber’s Mount Pleasant Chapel in Camrose.

Memorial donations may be made to the Heart and Stroke Foundation or to Camrose Church of God.

It’s been two years since you left us,To be with the Lord above.As for us who are left behind,We miss you, and feel your love.We miss your humour, your smile and your wit,As for Jesus, He must be loving it.We’ll see you once again, it’s true,And a family again we will be.Until then, we will miss you,And wait to be with you for eternity.

Love always,Your family


By Murray GreenDue to the appointment of Alberta's first property rights advocate

(the first such office in Canada) the government claims that Albertans can now get information to help them with property rights problems.

However, frustrated landowners at the Alberta Surface Rights Federation annual general meeting, at the Norsemen Inn in Camrose on March 8, didn't receive the patronage appointment with a lot of optimism.

Alberta’s first property rights office was officially opened in Leth-bridge on Feb. 6 and is estimated to cost taxpayers up to $1 million a year. The office opening follows the appointment of Lee Cutforth as Alberta’s first property rights advocate.

The vast majority of Alberta landowners wanted several contro-versial Bills repealed by the province last year. The government didn't want to relinquish the ultimate power over landowners, so it turned the matter over to a task force. Instead, the creation of a property rights advocate and the opening of a property rights office was due to a recommendation of the Property Rights Task Force.

Cutforth made his first visit to Camrose at the Alberta Surface Rights Federation annual general meeting at the Norsemen Inn on March 8. "It has been almost three months since I have been back in the saddle and it has been a lot of back and forth talk of what I can and can't do," said Cutforth. "I have been a lawyer for over 25 years, but before that I came from a farm. It is a huge change going from working in the private sector to working with the government."

The advocate is based in Lethbridge and was appointed to a three-year term following a competitive recruitment process. "In theory, there is going to be a branch office in Edmonton, as well as a dep-uty advocate, a policy researcher, a communications officer and two administrative assistants on staff. I can't say what the time frame is going to be for staffing that. As all of you know, there are some budget issues coming out and I don't know how that filters down to my office."

The office was formed to give three basic tools to property owners. "One is information to help landowners with the process and we overlap with the farmers' advocate office," explained Cutforth. "The second tool is a complaint mechanism. If you are facing expropriation, or compen-sative taking, and if the authority is not playing by the rules, you can file a complaint with our office. We will look into it and prepare a report.

The third tool is the annual report to the government. "It gets sent in at the end of every year. I can make recommendations and send it on to the speaker. He then tables it and then it is up to the elected politicians to do something with it," added Cutforth. "My office does not get into civil disputes between private parties. We don't deal with private contract issues."

The newly formed office has been criticized for having no power. "I have three tools in my box and the only thing I can promise is that I will use them the best that I can," said Cutforth. "I hear that we wouldn't really need the office if we didn't have that controversial Bill 2 land stewardship act. This office is important because property rights are important."


By Murray GreenFarmers' Advocate Peter

Dobbie is coming up to his first anniversary in his position. He updated local landowners about his role at the Alberta Surface Rights Federation annual gen-eral meeting, at the Norsemen Inn in Camrose on March 8.

"One of the things we were successful in doing, and the gov-ernment should continue to do, is work on posting every recom-mendation, comment or concern that is submitted by anyone, to the website so we can all look at it," said Peter. "What we learned is that there are a lot of good ideas out there and it is hard to measure the support of the ideas unless we can all see them. When I took the position, a three-year contract, it was to bring the inter-ests of farmers and ranchers to develop government policy."

Peter had to figure out the best way to deliver the ideas and turn them into favourable policy. "I said the marching orders have changed. In the past, the office had evolved into a position where information was provided, but the actual role of advocacy had dropped off. When I met with the office team, I wanted to change the focus. They wanted the con-straints put upon them freed up, so they could work more on the advocacy side," explained Peter.

"So, instead of just providing you with information, they wanted to be able to work with you to advance your cause. The team was looking for a change in its role."

The Farmers' Advocate office's role is to listen to farm-ers and ranchers to advance con-cerns. A commitment is different than a goal. "Our bumper sticker is a commitment to help farmers and ranchers. My goal, perhaps, is to get the surface rights act amended to change the right of entry fee of $500 an acre to let's say $2,500 an acre because that is the current average. There should be a five-year process for that," said Peter. "We are working on that goal because a number of farmers and ranchers have told us that is important to them. Whether we are successful or not in making that change to the surface rights act doesn't change the underlying commitment. We will be still here to work for you to advance your concerns."

Peter starts the process by trying to determine what is in the best interests of the parties involved. "I don't have any statu-tory authority, or ability to amend legislation. I don't have the ability to issue fines, or to do anything other than influence govern-ment," confessed Peter.

"What we are trying to do

as an office, is to get out as much as possible. We have staff attend-ing as many of the energy regu-lator meetings as we can. One of the things we are trying to get embedded is the definition of landowners. If there is proposed activity on your property, it is our office's view that it should auto-matically include the landowner where the activity is proposed," he added. "There is an argument out there that regulators don't want to set minimum standards because they are concerned that some operators will only align themselves with the lowest mini-mum standards. What we are hearing from farmers and ranch-ers is that they understand that, but some minimum standard is better than none."

Peter explained that he, and his three assistants, work closely with the agricultural minister. "We are a small team. My job is to learn your concerns and pass them on. We will help, when we can, with disputes or con-cerns between farmers. We see very little of that now. Most of the requests for help now are for information and to assist with advising on processes. On the big picture side of it, we are trying to influence government policies."

It is too late for the Farm-ers' Advocacy to change Bill 2 because it is legislation. "How-

ever, we can learn the Bill, read it and try to figure out how the land stewardship act is tied to it. At the very least, we can try to get the regulations improved. We can get definitions, so that every-one knows when they should be notified."

Surface rights organizations and landowners are not happy about Bill 2 because it leaves them with little rights. "There is a general frustration out there and people are concerned that it is a significant loss of your abil-ity to say no as a landowner," added Peter. "I want the govern-ment to took at surface rights to update the act to reflect current practices and deal with recla-mation that needs to be done by companies."

Success comes when farm-ers and ranchers band together to make a stand for their rights. "When farmers work together as a group, you have power. Com-panies try to talk to landown-ers as one-on-one, so they have control. Farmers need to share information. One thing you can do is work together, or simply not sign off as the weak link in the chain. Spend the time and energy to work with each other," Peter advised.

"We have no more authority or ability then you do. Our office is not a decision maker. With

some luck, we will be good listen-ers and decision influencers," said Peter.

The floor was opened for questions or concerns. One land-owner said he can't afford one lawyer to go against a team of lawyers from the oil and gas com-panies.

A local landowner expressed his concern about the farmers' advocacy position having a lack of teeth and that the role has been reduced over the years.

"The reason I raised the issue of the difference between a commitment and a goal, is to indicate that we may not win every fight or the big fights, but we will pursue your interests," said Peter.

"One of the problems we have in this province right now is that we have a difference of understanding for the control of land rights. In Canada, you have limited rights. You can't build a hog barn or lagoon if a school is on the neighbouring property. The government regulates the use of property. The concern many farmers and ranchers have raised with me is that creep of the reduced ability to say no. It comes down to the fundamental role of government versus the right of the landowner," added Peter. "I will push for you, but I need help."

By Dan JensenStyle and technology come together in a bold new

way in the 2013 Ford Edge at Lamb Ford Sales, Cam-rose.

"Our customers are going to love it," said Lamb Ford Sales sales manager Brett Read.

"It is definitely a vehicle that stands out above the crowd."

PerformanceThe 3.5 litre V6 produces 285 horsepower and 253

lb.-ft. of torque, while the 3.7 litre twin-independent variable cam timing V6 delivers 305 horsepower and 280 lb.-ft. of torque, all on regular fuel. Both engines are teamed with a six-speed automatic transmission.

The SelectShift automatic transmission is stan-dard on the Edge SEL and Limited series. Select-Shift gives the driver total control over gear selection and performance. Upshifts, for instance, are not commanded at redline, and downshifts are allowed at the lowest gear possible as defined by the engine. When a lower gear is selected while descending a long downhill grade, SelectShift will hold that gear until the driver manually upshifts, or returns to the fully automatic setting.

A new 2.0 litre EcoBoost I-4 engine delivers 15 per cent fuel economy improvements over the 3.5 litre V6 when mated to a six-speed transmission.

"The engine offers the performance feel of a six-cylinder," said Read.

Driving experienceEighteen-inch tires, standard on the Edge SEL

and Edge Limited, provide a more engaging steering feel. Twenty-inch tires are optional on Edge Limited, while Edge Sport has class-exclusive 22-inch wheels standard.

Shocks, springs and the stabilizer bar have been adjusted to tighten handling. The shocks now feature a high-flow piston, which allows engineers to tune for both road loads and driving dynamics, without compro-mising ride for handling, or vice versa. The result is a

flatter response through turns and over hills, while still providing a comfortable ride.

Brake related features include Hill Start Assist, which reduces rollback on hills, Trailer Sway Control, which provides greater towing stability when equipped for trailer tow, Hydraulic Brake Assist, which provides greater braking force in emergency stops, and Adap-tive Cruise Control and Collision Warning with Brake Support, which helps reduce speed and automatically pre-charges brakes and engages an electronic brake assist system to help drivers stop more quickly when the system detects a collision is imminent.

InteriorThe Ford Edge SE is well equipped with cloth-

trimmed seats and single-zone manual air condition-ing. The SEL gets unique cloth-trimmed seats, a six-way driver seat, and dual-zone electronic automatic temperature control.

MyFord Touch driver connect technology provides

a smarter, safer, simpler way to connect drivers with in-car technologies and their digital lives. It replaces tradi-tional vehicle buttons, knobs and gauges with clear, crisp LEC screens and five-way controls like those found on cell phones and MP3 play-ers. Two 4.2-inch full-colour LCD screens flank an ana-logue speedometer and an eight-inch touch-screen LCD at the top of the centre stack. A five-way switch on each side of the steering wheel crossbar controls the information displayed on the corresponding instru-ment panel screens. The screens can be personalized to display information relevant to each individual driver using a simple button click, voice command or touch-screen tap.

SafetyThe advanced Personal Safety System uses

sophisticated sensors to optimize deployment of the dual-stage front airbags in certain frontal collisions. Front-seat side airbags deploy in certain side-impact collisions, while the Safety Canopy system increases protection with a rollover sensor and side-curtain airbags.

Each standard sideview mirror features an inte-grated convex blind spot mirror that helps identify vehicles and objects nearby, so you can avoid them.

So that you and your passengers can be easily located, the SOS Post-Crash Alert System will auto-matically flash the hazard lights and sound the horn after an airbag has deployed or a safety belt preten-sioner has activated in certain collisions.

WarrantyThe basic warranty on Ford Edge is three years or

60,000 km. The Powertrain Limited Warranty is five years or 100,000 km.

By Dan JensenFew parents look forward to

the day when they must teach their teenager to drive a car. Handing over the keys to a teenager and then riding shot-gun as he or she learns the basics is hardly a recipe for a stress-free afternoon, but it's a part of life many parents must endure sooner or later, and it's

a rite of passage for their chil-dren.

While it's likely your son or daughter will not be a great driver from the get-go, there are ways par-ents can make the process of teach-ing their teen to drive less stressful and more likely to be a success.

* Utilize an empty parking lot as a classroom.

Continued from page 33"Empty parking lots are great places to teach teens to drive," said

AMA driving instructor and retired Camrose Police Service traffic officer Rick Hopwood. "In an empty parking lot, teens can practice skills like turning or braking without the risk of running into another driver. This gives kids the feel of a vehicle and an opportunity to famil-iarize themselves with the vehicle's controls, including those for turn signals and headlights. Find an empty parking lot that is large, such as one outside a closed grocery store or a nearby school when school is not in session."

* Find a less-travelled road to practice more subtle driving skills."Once your teen has become familiar with the vehicle, a good next

step is to find a back road or a road without heavy traffic where he or she can learn more subtle driving skills that might be difficult to learn in a parking lot," said Hopwood." Coming to a stop, maintaining a safe distance between vehicles, accelerating and decelerating on roadways and learning to share the road with pedestrians and/or cyclists are all valuable lessons that can be learned on a back road without heavy traffic."

Continued from page 34* Teens will eventually take

to the highway once they get their driver's license, so it's best to teach them how to handle using on and off ramps and learning to yield when entering a highway so they're comfortable with such driving and don't have to teach themselves.

* Teach kids to anticipate the actions of other drivers.

"Anticipating the actions of other drivers is a lesson even some veteran adult drivers must learn, much less teen drivers with little or no experience driving," said Hopwood. "When teaching teenagers to drive, emphasize how difficult it can be to anticipate other drivers' maneuvers and how pro-active driving techniques are designed to help drivers predict what oth-er drivers will do in order to

protect themselves from driv-ers who might be unpredictable. Teach teens to keep an eye out for drivers routinely switching lanes without signaling and tell them to be mindful of other drivers when they pull up to a stop sign. Teens who will become good drivers will even-tually find such techniques are second nature.

* Practice driving at differ-ent times of the day.

"Taking teens out to drive at different times of the day can teach them that road conditions, even when the weather is nice, vary depending on the amount of light," said Hopwood. "Driving at dusk and dawn, for instance, can be difficult because glare from the sun can decrease vis-ibility and headlights might not provide much help. Like learning to drive on the highway, learning to drive at various times of the

day is a valuable lesson that kids should learn with their parents in tow and not on their own after they have received their driver's license."

Once all the basics are cov-ered, Hopwood advises that par-ents enroll their teens in a driver education course to ensure they have learned all the proper driv-ing techniques, are up to date on current laws, and to enhance their driving safety.

By Dan JensenA vehicle history report

can be a used car buyer's best friend. Whereas in the past buyers bought used cars and hoped for the best, today's used car buyers can rely on a vehicle history report to tell them all about the vehicle while helping buyers make more informed decisions.

"When shopping for a preowned vehicle, you should always ask for a vehicle history report, regardless of whether you're buying from a dealer-ship or a private citizen," said Cathy Wenig, insurance agent with Central Agencies. "If the seller refuses, it's time to look elsewhere. When a sell-er eagerly provides a vehicle history report, buyers should examine a few things on the report so they can be more comfortable should they ulti-mately purchase the vehicle."

Number ofprevious owners

All vehicle history reports list how many owners a vehicle has had in the past.

"In general, the more own-ers a vehicle has had, the more risk you're assuming as the buyer," said Wenig. "Vehicles that tend to change hands often are less likely to have been well maintained."

Continued from page 37In addition to how many

owners a car has had, look at who those owners were. Vehicles that were once owned by a rental car company, for instance, were likely not treat-ed very well, as few people care how much abuse their rental car endures. However, a car once owned by a rental agency likely has lots of high-way miles on it, and such driv-ing is less taxing on a vehicle than city driving where the vehicle's engine is stopping and starting more frequently.

SpecificsJust because a seller pro-

vides you with a vehicle histo-ry report does not necessarily mean that report matches the vehicle you might be buying.

"A dishonest seller might try to pass off the history report of another vehicle of the same make and model as his own," said Wenig. "This is done to hide a suspect vehicle history or even when thieves are selling a stolen car to an unsuspecting buyer. Check the vehicle identification num-ber, or VIN, on the vehicle to ensure the car you're look-ing at matches the car on the history report. In addition, each vehicle history report describes the car, so if the description does not match you might be holding an inaccu-rate report."

Physical appearanceDoes the physical appear-

ance of the car match its his-tory report?

"Sometimes a vehicle own-er does not report when a car has been in an accident," said Wenig. "Owners might do this to avoid higher insurance pre-miums or to mask the vehicle's history because they intend to sell the car down the road. If a car exhibits any signs of body work that aren't on its history report or if the car drives awk-wardly but has supposedly not been in an accident, buyers should consider this a major red flag and strongly consider walking away from the vehicle and continuing their search elsewhere."

A vehicle history report can calm the fears of a buyer shopping for a preowned vehi-cle. But even when a report is made available, buyers should still examine the report closely to ensure the vehicle is all it's cracked up to be.

By Murray GreenIn most sports you have a

training camp or pre-season period to work yourself into mid-season shape. Not so in rodeo. However, the cowboys and cow-girls looked like they are ready for the long season ahead by turning up at the Camrose Spring Clas-sic Pro Rodeo with the attitude of performing well for the local fans, March 15 to 17.

Michael Solberg of Sunny-brook scored an 84 in Sunday's bareback riding event to take home the top prize money of $1,346. Jake Vold of Ponoka fol-lowed that with an 83, Kevin Langevin of Bonnyville was third with an 82 and Clayton Bunney of Cessford made the top four with an 80.5 ride.

In steer wrestling, Justin Guenthner of Vermilion turned in the fastest time of 3.8 seconds on Saturday to earn, $2,043 and the championship title in Cam-rose. Nolan Conway of Cut Bank, Montana, and Dayton Roworth of Czar tied for second with an even four seconds. Chad Kurtz, of Fort Saskatchewan, was fourth with a 4.2 time.

Clinton Cox of Peace River rode saddle bronc horse Devil's Who for an 83.5 score from the judges on Sunday. He earned $1,442 for travel money. Jake Brown of Eckville recorded an 81, Jim Berry of Rocky Mountain House scored an 80 and Mark O’ Dempsey of Mayorthorpe was a half point back at 79.5 to reach the top four in the event.

In tie down roping, Darren Dublanko of Thorsby had the quickest hands to turn in a time of 9.6 seconds. The fast time put $1,632 in his pocket. A tie between Logan Bird of Nanton and Cur-tis Cassidy of Donalda occurred at second place as both cowboys recorded a time of 10.3 seconds. Jess Finnerty of Duchess round-ed out the top four with a time of 10.9 seconds. Kagen Schmidt

of Barrhead won the junior steer riding event with a 78.5 score, which earned him $388. Cole Aykroyd of Wainwright earned a 77.5, Logan Biever of Claresh-olm was marked a 76.5 and both Klayton Lakevold of Provost and Griffin Smeltzer of Claresholm earned a 71 in the top five.

In barrel racing, Lisa Ander-son of Bozeman, Montana, turned in the fastest time with a 13.543 to win $1,818 in prize money. Melissa Thiessen of Stet-tler was next at 13.741, Lauren Byrne of Okotoks was third at 13.856 and Steffanie Mather of Medicine Hat crossed the finish line in 13.857 to complete the top four performers

Team ropers Brett Buss and

Tyrel Flewelling, of Ponoka and Lacombe, sparkled with a time of six seconds flat on Saturday to win $1,437 each. A tie between Rocky Ross and Marty Lillico (Botha and Stettler) and Trevor Jones and Keely Bonnett (Pono-ka) occurred for second with two times of 6.2 seconds. Stacy Cornet and Dale Skocdopole, of Brant and Big Valley, placed fourth with a time of 6.3 seconds.

Scott Schiffner of Strath-more rode bull Red Stag to an 89 score on Friday night to set the tone of the bull riding event. He earned $1,447 for having the top score. Tyler Pankewitz of Ponoka netted an 88, Garrett Green of Meeting Creek collected 84.5 points.

SpringClassiclived up toits billing

Murray Green, Camrose BoosterKy Marshall of Bowden hung onto horse Get A Grip in the bareback event to score a 69 on March 16 during the Camrose Spring Classic Pro Rodeo. Michael Solberg of Sunnybrook scored an 84 on Sunday to win the bareback event at the Camrose Regional Exhibition.

By Murray GreenKeep your credit and debit

card information secure and safe from fraudsters. That's the mes-sage from the Camrose Police Service during Fraud Prevention Month.

"In Camrose, we haven't had too many occurrences were peo-ple are necessarily falling victim to devices that have been altered. We see that in larger centres such as Edmonton and Calgary, and we are seeing it more and more," explained Const. Matt Wilton. "Criminals can modify the pin pad on the credit and debit card machine. They have actually sto-len the unit from the store at the end of the day, made modifica-tions to it, and then brought it back early the next morning."

One of the most expensive crimes endured by millions of Canadian consumers every year is fraud. "Before criminals would change the pin pad, but with new systems the computer knows when the pad doesn't match.

Now modifications are made by criminals to add bluetooth, or components inside of it to send wireless messages every time a card is swiped," added Const. Wilton. "Overlays are still being found in larger centres where you put your card in and a camera records your information, or pin code strokes. They come back at a later date and the device has recorded all of the transactions that have occurred and they have your information."

Gas stations are running into this problem now. "Again, Camrose is a smaller centre, so we haven't seen it here. But, it is happening in Edmonton and branching out to the Sherwood Park or Stony Plain and sur-rounding areas," said Const. Wil-ton. "Camrose is not that much farther out. I was at a conference and what they were saying with gas stations is that criminals are able to open the pump with keys. Most pumps have similar keys. Some criminals have gotten a

hold of these keys and are able to open them and install the guts of a device right inside the machine. You, as a customer, would have no idea if that machine has been tampered with."

The Camrose Police Service advises customers to pay in per-son, rather than at the pump. "Some gas stations have hours where they are not open and it would be easy to install these devices after the station is closed," added Const. Wilton.

Keep track of your pur-chases and always examine your monthly bills. "You have to moni-tor your card. Be very careful when purchasing goods online and only go to web sites that you know and trust. If someone sends you a link to follow, don't use it, because it could lead you some-where unsafe, such as a fake web page that looks exactly like the real page. Go directly to the site instead," advised Const. Wilton. "Going to a fake web page can lead to phishing."

Phishing is used by Inter-net scammers who use emails to lure you into providing them with your financial information, pass-words, or personal information.

"A legitimate looking email could be sent to you that looks like it was sent from a bank. I received one, but fortunately it looked like a bank that I don't deal with and I knew right away it was a scam," said Const. Wil-ton. "It asks you to follow a link and it goes to an unsafe web page. Remember don't fol-low links. Banks don't send emails of this nature. They will ask you to come in, rath-er than transact business by email."

In a convenience society, tak-ing the short and quick way of doing business isn't always the best. "Prevention is worth the effort. If you can perform your transactions in person, whether it is going to the bank or paying for gas, then we encourage you to do so," said Const. Wilton. "I

Diane HutchinsonBRSD Communications

Like many other publicly funded organizations in Alberta, the Battle River School Division is facing challenges as a result of the recently announced provincial budget.

As was explained at the March 14 meeting of the BRSD Board of Trustees, there is both good news and bad news con-tained within the Education budget, with some categories of funding being increased and others decreased or eliminated.

The bottom line, however, is that BRSD will experience the elimination of two programs effective April 1, reducing the cur-rent year’s budget by about $314,000 and further reductions for the 2013-14 school year that will reduce the budget by an addi-tional $997,000. Those reductions could be further complicated by declines in student enrollment, which are not included in the government’s calculations.

BRSD is estimating about 100 more students will be finish-ing grade 12 in June than will start grade 1 next September.

Over the next few weeks, division and school leaders will work on plans for how to manage these significant changes in funding and expect to present a plan to the Board in April.

On April 16, BRSD has invited the chair of every school council to join board members, division and school leadership representatives for an afternoon presentation of budget infor-mation, to help parents and school communities gain a deeper understanding of the upcoming realities.

Early Learning Program to begin in SeptemberBattle River School Division will be kicking off a new pro-

gram for young learners, starting in September of 2013.The Early Learning Program will create an opportunity

for children 3 and 4 years of age to participate in an organized play-based learning program, which will help them be ready for kindergarten and Grade 1.

In the 2013-14 school year, the program will be offered at Sparling School in Camrose, and together with the current PALS program which operates out of Camrose Composite High School. In the following year the program could expand to Tofield, as well as other Camrose schools, and might include a French Immersion component. Expansion to other areas of the school division could happen in the fall of 2015.

“This is an exciting opportunity,” says Superintendent of Schools Dr. Larry Payne. “We’ve had many requests for this type of service, from parents who want to ensure their children are ready for school. The program will be play-based and devel-opmentally appropriate for children of these young ages and we do believe it will give them a good start on their educational path.”

The program will be required to be self-sustaining, with no subsidy from the school division. Details of what the program will include, the operating schedule and when parents can reg-ister their children will be shared as soon as possible.

It’s survey season!Each year Battle River School Division seeks input from stu-

dents, parents and staff regarding their educational experience over the past year. Surveys are available on the BRSD website at www.brsd.ab.ca and will be accessible until March 28.

Helpful Tips for Writing Classifi ed 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 AbbreviationsOkay, 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 HonestExaggerating your item’s fi ner 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 PriceThe 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 AccessibleIncluding 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 fi rst 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.

United Church wings its way to the futureBy Alex Oliver

On February 9, 22 members of the Camrose United Church met in a six-hour workshop enti-tled “Winging Our Way to the Future” to discuss the church’s role in years to come.

Joyce Madson and Clair Woodbury of the Congregational Life Centre in Edmonton, whose mission is to assist congregations to be more effective in their minis-try, led the group.

Joyce indicated, “The event was organized to provide the group with an opportunity to review their vision and mission that was identified four years ago.”

At that time Camrose United Church said its vision was “To become a safe community where no one feels alone and everyone feels at home” along with a mis-sion “Together, we share and cel-ebrate God’s love.”

The team leaders took the group through three elements of envisioning the future. The most important was to generate new ideas of what the preferred future of Camrose United Church would be; second was strategic thinking about how these visions would make a difference in the lives of the congregation; and third was fiduciary thinking to find resourc-es for those visions.

The participants had plenty of opportunity to discuss and share in small group situations and then creatively report back to the group as a whole.

"It is very heartwarming to know that so many people have shown their continued faith in the future of Camrose United Church,” noted church member Jim Anderson. “Its future is very bright.”

Five visions were presented.First, utilize more technology

to enhance the worship experi-ence and other spiritual growth and development. Second, reach out to other spiritual partners such as Augustana University. Third, minister outside of the church and address the needs and issues within our community. Fourth, encourage drama within the church as part of the service and as separate presentations; and fifth, foster lay leadership of all ages.

Although Camrose United Church currently incorporates the above ideas, it was felt that these needed to be more sharply defined.

“Who would have thought that we would emerge jabber-ing and bubbling with energy?” questioned Bernice Holowachuk-Smith. “This mixture of 22 people gobbled up in friendship, laugh-ter and camaraderie to make the church mission statement happen made me glad to have been part of this awesome day.”

Clair Woodbury pointed out, “The church’s leadership now has the task of moving these new ini-tiatives forward.”

And, Tom Dobbie, Chair of the Board, optimistically expressed, “The participants' involvement convinced me that as a Church we are healthy, progressive and car-ing. I have no doubt that with our expertise and determination we can fulfill our future strategies."

Actually Bill 36 is the Land Stewardship Act and Bill 2 is the Responsible Energy Development Act.

Cutforth pointed out that governments change over the years. "We don't want to leave something as important as prop-erty rights, left with the govern-ment of the day," added Cutforth. "Property rights are necessary for a free society and a stable economy. If you are not fairly compensated, you begin to feel that you as a landowner are sub-sidizing the cost of utilities, gas, transportation and whatever is trying to cross your land. You begin to feel that you are bearing an unfair share of the cost of pub-lic good, rather than having that cost passed on to the consumer."

Several unconvinced land-owners voiced their displeasure over the advocate's "lack of teeth" when it comes to going against the government.

Cutforth then encouraged people to write him letters. "It is not my place to carry the gov-ernment's water. My job is to represent the interests of prop-erty owners to give public voice to those concerns through the annual report," explained Cut-forth. "I can't impose my will, only my recommendations, and I can't give public voice to it. I can raise the profile and that can be helpful. I can't change things. That is left with the people in legislation."

Landowners questioned Cut-forth, from the floor, on the lack of democracy in government, bul-lying tactics used by both oil com-panies and by government, what his definition of public interest is, why food supply is not the government's number one prior-ity, and he was challenged to help some landowners who have been fighting with an oil company on clean-up for about 25 years.

"All I can do is look at it," Cut-forth said. "It sounds like a civil matter. I'll pass this on to Peter."

Peter Dobbie of the office of the Farmers' Advocate said "We can look at it and get back to you."

Cutforth wants to raise awareness and when challenged from the floor about his previ-ous support of involvement with donations to the current govern-ment, he brushed them aside by saying, "The real issue is not what I did up to the appointment; it is with what happens after that," said Cutforth. "I can help people with their concerns by try-ing to get them information."
