Page 5 AIRDRIE COMMUNITY CHOIR Submitted by Jennifer Cormier “Airdrie Community Choir” 22nd Annual Concert Lutheran Church of the Master Sat. April 21st at 7:30 pm Sun. April 22nd at 2:30 pm Sit back, relax, and let the beautiful sounds wash over you. The Airdrie Community Choir will once again be bringing their brand of choral music to Airdrie on April 21 & 22 when they present their 22nd Annual Concert, A Season of Song. Concert-goers will be treated to a beautiful blend of voices accompanied by many different instrumentalists. These talented musicians will play flute, oboe, cello, guitar and piano as well. “This year we have something for everyone including a number of works the audience will know and enjoy, and many works we hope will bring back memories,” said musical director, Jean-Louis Bleau. This will be Bleau’s second year as director of the Airdrie Community Choir. His passion for music is evident through his unique and expressive conducting style and his enthusiastic approach to music. He is known for making his singers engage difficult music which, while challenging, is very rewarding. “Wicked Altogether” Snook with Payne and O’Byrne “Jigs and Reels, Chuckles and Squeals...” From Newfoundland !! Mon. May 7th at 7:30pm “BORDERLINE CRAZIES” A Comedy by Airdrie Little Theatre Th, F & St, May 17, 18 & 19 at 7:30 p.m. Ecclectic, is the best way to describe this program! Remember the song “Blackbird” by the Beatles? This was remade by Sarah McLachlan a few years ago and now we have a version by the Airdrie Community Choir. From rock music we move to broadway with music from Jonathon Larson’s famous musical “Rent.” You will be treated to outstanding harmonies with a fantastic group of soloists. The choir will have you snapping your fingers along with Gershwins’s “Fascinating Rhythm.” One of the highlights of the concert will be the introduction of a cello in the song “Grace,” originally performed by Bobby McFerrin and Yo-Yo-Ma.. The classics are introduced with Schubert’s “Sanctus from the Mass in F” and “Dirait-On” by Morten Lauridsen, one of America’s most performed contemporary composers. More great music awaits you at the 22nd annual concert. The concerts take place on Saturday, April 21 at 7:30 pm and Sunday, April 22 at 2:30pm at the Lutheran Church of the Master, 216 Main Street, Airdrie. Tickets are $15 for Adults and $10 for Seniors/ Students and Children. Tickets are available from Choir members or at Music Centre Canada, Air-Alta Insurance, Page & Turners Bookstore, and in Crossfield at the Rockyview IDA. #404 - 988 Yankee Valley Rd.

A radio antenna will slide up and down easier if a coat of wax is applied occasionally. Wax paper works great for this job. Rub the wax paper up and down the antenna, the wax from the paper will coat the antenna. Line your car trunk with a plastic rug protector to protect the carpeting. It will make clean up easier if dirty or greasy objects are placed in the trunk. Remove road salt from carpet with equal amounts of vinegar and water. Remove tar from rubber car mats by dabbing a generous dose of linseed oil on tar. Let it soak for about fifteen minutes and blot with a dampened cloth. Use newspaper to wipe windows dry after cleaning to avoid streaks. On a piece of tape write the mileage down when the next oil change is due. Attach this to your upper windshield or another convenient place to remind you when it's time to change the oil. Clean headlights, chrome and enamel with baking soda. Steel wool pads with soap cleans white sidewalls the best. Clean splattered bugs off with baking soda and a nylon net. When white walls are clean use a little vinyl top wax to keep them clean longer. “Order and simplification are the first steps towards mastery of a subject – the actual enemy is the unknown.” ~Thomas Mann~ Page 7 Airdrie, AB Tel: 948-1341 2 Bottles of Water FREE New Customers Only • • • • Invitations, stationery & favors Printed locally No Minimum orders Personalized service Smile: if you can't lift the corners, let the middle sag. Panda Flowers - Airdrie Main St., Towerlane II Plaza "SIMPLY" "EXTREME" MAKEOVER "BIG BEARS" EDITION Lois: I have no real update. I haven't been to Simply For Life for 3 weeks so, as far as weight loss goes, I have no idea. I know I enjoyed a beautiful Easter weekend and if I gained a pound or two, but I have no regrets. We get one shot at this life and I certainly didn't gain all this weight over one weekend so, I don't expect to loose it over one weekend. Stress (LIFE) continues to play a big roll in this challenge so I will continue on my path here and keep pluggin' away. I HATE not getting to that gym to work off these frustrations but, when you own your own business, I know sometimes there is no choice. I have fit in a few walks here and there but it's not the same. Until next week, hopefully, I'll have better reviews. Big city selection.

I am not making it easy on myself, as I just came back from a bit of a holiday state side and, believe me, this was the biggest test yet. Not only was I away from my usual comfort zone, I was constantly surrounded by these wild buffets. Fortunately the Simply For Life program came along for the ride, and other then the odd slip up, I was able to stay fairly close to the plan. Although the work out areas were nothing like the facilities Big Bear Gym has to offer, I did manage to get the blood flowing by spending time in the pool and walking whenever I could. I certainly missed my Extreme Pita favorites, but with a little bit of effort was able to track down a fairly decent replacement, although not nearly as delicious. All in all I think I did fairly well, as I gained less then a pound. Hopefully I will lose that plus maybe a couple more, just to wrap this up on a high note.
