Celebrating David Foster

By Alicia Moyes | Cam, Events-homepage | Comments are Closed | 15 November, 2024 | 3

We could revert to the old saying – really, no pun intended – but what type of birthday gift do you get for someone who would say “I don’t need anything.” That’s the challenge I am having as I contemplate while I scratch my ever-increasing balding head trying to figure out what to get my dearRead more

Valentine's Day at the David Foster Foundation

A Valentine’s Day Tribute, David Foster Foundation Style

By Jerry Grymek | Cam, Events-homepage | Comments are Closed | 25 February, 2025 | 3

I must have been no older than six. Maybe, seven. I got up, ready for another yummy bowl of oatmeal and a glass of orange juice. Milk, of course, too. And there it was. It had my name on it. Four words: Happy Valentine’s Day, Cam. Now, I had heard about this Valentine’s Day. IRead more

Logan Boulet’s Legacy: How One Player Inspired a Nation

By Jerry Grymek | Cam, Events-homepage | Comments are Closed | 16 April, 2025 | 3

I was all of 14 years old when I saw an image, which would be a lifelong feature film – something I could, with the blink of an eye, see – now in 5K resolution. It was after an Alberta Junior Hockey League afternoon game between the Pass Red Devils and the Edmonton Mets. Interestingly,Read more

The Unexpected Power of a Small Kindness

By Jerry Grymek | Cam, Events-homepage | Comments are Closed | 7 May, 2025 | 3

I’ve always loved breakfast. That appetite took hold in my twenties, while covering wheelchair basketball across the Western U.S. Just a young reporter chasing stories, late-night deadlines, and finding the nearest watering hole to enjoy a beverage before closing time. I’d roll into a dining room well past 10 a.m., still groggy, unshaven, and withRead more

Hope Blooms in March: The Importance of Kidney Health and Organ Donation

By Jerry Grymek | Cam, Events-homepage | Comments are Closed | 21 March, 2025 | 3

As the warm winds of March swirl throughout our great country, a new season openly invites us to participate in the seasonal activities we patiently waited for: spring break, baseball’s Grapefruit season, hockey playoffs, golf season and so many other fun things. The keyword, now and forever, being fun. As we slowly put away ourRead more

A New Year’s Idea to Try Again

By Alicia Moyes | Cam, Events-homepage | Comments are Closed | 10 January, 2025 | 2

Let me take a good look at my clock and do the math. Seventeen hours into January 1st. That’s how long I’ve been getting to know this new 365-day relationship, otherwise known as 2025. It’s far too early to know the ins and outs of our new acquaintance, which, hopefully, becomes a good friend. It’sRead more

Dear Santa

By Alicia Moyes | Cam, Events-homepage | Comments are Closed | 5 December, 2024 | 3

Dear Santa: Ah, yes. Here we are: of all the hundreds, maybe, honestly, thousands of pieces I have the privilege of putting cursor to screen this is, unquestionably, my favourite letter to craft. I know we don’t speak, email, tweet, or whichever form of communication you use throughout the year. I know, Santa, you areRead more

A Tait Family Thanksgiving Greeting

By Alicia Moyes | Cam, Events-homepage | Comments are Closed | 11 October, 2024 | 1

When the brisk, warm winds increase their mighty gusts, at the same time that the unquestionable sound of autumn arrives  — a hardened leaf that fell off a tree and hip hops along the pavement’s bare cement, creating a clickety-clack sound: October is here. It’s my favourite month. I fell in love with the year’sRead more
