More than just a device for correcting vision, eyeglasses
become part of a person’s image. The key to creating the
image you want is in selecting just the right pair of eyeglasses to match your personality and lifestyle. Whether
it’s a conservative person looking for traditional shapes, a
creative person who prefers modern geometric styles and
trendy colors, or you’re looking for a one-of-a-kind custom
shape, HERO Optical has something for everyone.
Most people who go shopping for a frame do so with very little
assistance from a professional, therefore they tend to pick frames
that are familiar and well within their comfort zone — but this is not
always the same as the frame that looks best. Our qualified opticians will help
you expand your comfort zone to find a frame that presents your personality
and individual flare.
From strong, lightweight metal frames in stainless steel or titanium, to plastic frames in a myriad
of colors, finishes, shapes and designs. HERO Optical has all the newest trends by Calvin Klein,
Mexx, Coach, Nike and more.
There are also designer sunglasses, and prescription sunglasses.
In a relaxed atmosphere we can answer any of your questions and help you to choose from various lens options, lens coating
options and styles.
For the best in optical sales and service,
smart consumers visit HERO Optical.

I am eagerly anticipating Saturday, November 3 at 7:30pm when I will have
the opportunity to see one of Canada’s top county superstars perform on the
Bert Church Theatre stage. This is a show that no one should miss! Why, you
ask? Well, read on…..
Canadian country music sensation, Brad Johner, continues on a roll with the
release of his second solo album, Summertown Road, the follow-up to his very
successful and Juno-nominated solo debut Free. It is already showing signs of
being another huge success producing two Top 10 songs and videos and is
loaded with more surefire future hits.
It has been a very busy year for Johner. Several high profile performances this
year, including the Queen's Gala and Canada Summer Games, and an unrelenting touring schedule from Victoria to Quebec City, has kept Johner on the
forefront of the Canadian Country music scene, a position he carved out over a
thriving decade-long career in Canada.
A successful run with brother Ken, as The Johner Brothers, led to four hit albums before Brad turning solo in 2003. The industry has responded positively
to the move, recognizing Brad with a 2003 Western Canadian Music Award
for "Outstanding Country Album", 2003 CCMA nominations for "Album of
the Year" and "SOCAN Song of the Year", and a win at the 2004 Canadian
Independent Music Awards for "Favourite Country Artist/Group". He was also
recognized with Juno and CCMA nominations in 2004.
For Brad it all starts with the song and it’s imperative that he puts his heart,
soul and voice into songs both he and his audience can relate to.
On the live front, Brad is a veteran of the stage. His polished
performance and exceptional band culminate in a truly entertaining and memorable show. Tickets are selling quickly for this show. Where else could you see
this kind of talent for $25 for Adults ($20 Members) and $22 for Students and
Seniors ($17 Members)?
Our local ticket outlets include Music Center Canada, Page and Turner’s
Bookstore, Air-Alta Insurance, and the Rockyview IDA in Crossfield. For

LATE DELIVERY
The orthopedic surgeon I work for was moving to a new office,
and his staff was helping transport many of the items.
I sat the display skeleton in the front of my car, his bony arm
across the back of my seat. I hadn't considered the drive across
town. At one traffic light, the stares of the people in the car beside me became obvious, and I looked across and explained, "I'm
delivering him to my doctor's office."
The other driver leaned out of his window. "I hate to tell you,
lady," he said, "but I think it's too late!"

As migration approached, two elderly vultures doubted they
could make the trip south, so they decided to go by airplane.
When they checked their baggage, the attendant noticed
that they were carrying two dead raccoons.
"Do you wish to check the raccoons through as
luggage?" he asked.
"No, thanks," replied one of the vultures. "They're carrion."
