New Hope Horse Club of Stoughton performed a musical ride

By Ana Bykhovskaia

The New Hope Horse Club (NHHC) out of Stoughton made Canada Day special for local spectators.

For over a year, members who formed a team named the NHHC Shadows, led by coach DeeAnn Lyke, were practising for a musical ride, and the performance on July 1 turned out great.

Bristol Madu, 14, riding a Friesian Gelding named Braumm, was the leader of the show.

“It takes a great amount of skill, dedication and practice to be a part of a musical choreographed show while on horseback,” said Angel Madu, who is involved with the club.

“Our musical ride drill team did exceptional. We had around 50 people come out to watch and support us.”

The group consists of 11-55-year-old female riders, with some coming from Fillmore and Estevan, but the core residing in Stough-

From left, Bristol Madu, Karley Martin, Stephanie Zoer, Abby Coderre, Janet Hall, Abby Hall, Neela Hall and Cheyenne Mitchell partook in a musical ride in Stoughton on Canada Day. Photo submitted ton.

The club started practising drill rides about three years ago.

They did perform the first year, and this was their first performance with the new group of riders. The club is open to anyone, but it requires serious commitment as members need to meet every week to practise the drill together.

“It’s a really big

time commitment, so that’s usually the biggest determining factor, people are not sure if they can commit to the weekly practices because you have to make sure you have your whole team there, otherwise, it’s very difficult to practice,” said Lyke.

Practises for the drill started last year, and this year the group decided that they wanted to perform. Things

turned out the way they wanted. Now they plan on continuing with performing.

“We decided that we would have it for Canada Day because then it would be a day off for people. So it’s nice to have a little bit of a crowd. And there weren’t really too many other Canada Day plans. That’s how we picked the performance date for this year. And

we’ve put out a couple of other invites to places. So we know we have rodeo next year, already. And we’re looking to get a couple more performances this year,” Lyke said.

The program was selected based on music preferences. It took a lot of songs and brainstorming, and it turned out amazing.

“We all brainstorm.

We would listen to dif-

ferent types of music and if we heard something that we liked, we bring it to our group.

And everyone would listen to it and see if most people like the music, and then we’d listen to it while we ride to see if it would match the beat or the tempo of riding,” Lyke explained.

“And then we just started narrowing it down from there. We A2 »SPECTATORS

Walk-Run-Ride with Creative Tables in August

By Deb Andrew “Going bald once was enough!”

Darlene Olson was so excited to share her new idea for the Creative Tables fundraiser this year. Over the years, this woman and her team of volunteers have raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for the Mary Kay Ashe Foundation’s Look Good, Feel Better program. The painful ordeal that cancer puts women through can be overwhelming but there are ways to ease the pain and bring some joy to the healing process.

This event will have participants meet at Arcola’s Prairie Place Hall on Sunday, Aug. 15 to walk, run and/or ride a specified route while raising money for this program. There will be options for a five-kilometre, 10-km or 21-km course and you can do any of the above to complete the course or any combination of the above. The times will be determined once the

number of participants is finalized by the Aug. 6 registration deadline.

“We will have special food, drinks and plans for along the route, just like the fun we have at a Creative Tables dinner event, so I need to know the numbers ahead of time. This is going to be a hoot!”

Olson exclaimed.

“I really want people to call me to register so I can explain and get their details,” Olson said.

“Some people have already told me they are going to do a theme with friends, just like the traditional Creative Tables evenings, and I said, ‘you go for it!’ Even if you are in a wheelchair, no problem, we will push you.”

The cost to register is only $50 and people can support, donate to those participating or give directly to the Look Good, Feel Better program. As always, any donation over $20 in support of someone will receive a tax-deductible receipt and all registrations will receive the

Carlyle RCMP investigating fatal collision near Manor The Carlyle RCMP is investigating a fatal collision that occurred Monday morning on Highway 13, approximately one kilometre east of Manor.

Officers were called to the collision at 8:05 a.m.

Investigation

determined that an SUV and a semi tractor-trailer unit collided. The lone passenger of the SUV, a 31-year-old male from Calgary, was declared deceased on scene.

His family has been notified. The driver of the semi received

minor injuries.

Highway 13 was closed and traffic was redirected during the initial investigation.

The highway has since reopened.

The Carlyle RCMP and an RCMP collision reconstructionist continue to investigate.

same. Registrations will be taken after the Aug. 6 date but will require a $60 registration fee.

“This is for all ages and groups.

It will be a light, airy event where the distances and times don’t matter, but just being involved is what is important,” Olson said. “And this is an event you can participate in from anywhere. We have people from other cities who are going to participate where they are living from or are holidaying. I am pretty excited.” What a great event to plan into your summer fun.

Would you like to volunteer?

Volunteers are always needed and always welcome so please let Olson know if you can help in the planning, organizing or hands on for the actual event.

Watch next week’s Observer for the online registration location but for now, contact Olson at 306455-2554 or 305-577-8087 and leave her a message if she is not available. She will love that.

Darlene Olson is looking forward to a new idea for the Creative Tables fundraiser.

Spectators and riders were excited for performance « A2 started off with probably about 10 different genres of music and we had about two to three songs in each genre. We had to see if we liked how that sound worked for us and then we narrowed it down from there until we got down to our performance.”

While Lyke said riders are currently working at about half of the potential speed, both the spectators and the girls themselves were excited about the show, and the group received great feedback.

However, Lyke expects that as they keep working

on their drills they will get even better, polishing the program and making it more difficult.

“One of the biggest challenges with performing in front of the crowd is that the horses aren’t used to having people there watching. So having a crowd there adds some new challenges which are very difficult to practise for unless you have a crowd, so you have to do more performances and then your horses get more used to the noise and the action of the crowd,” Lyke said.

After the performance

the club decided to take a break, hoping to get back together for new gigs. They will open up to new members once they get back to their routine.

“We usually start our practices in FebruaryMarch. We do a lot on foot, just getting our routine down ourselves.

So usually that’s when we would be accepting new members is in the early part of the year when we’re putting the team together.

And that’s the group that would practise and ride together throughout the spring and the summer,” Lyke said.

Bekevar Wind Energy Project to generate renewable energy south of Kipling with up to 40 turbines

By Laura Kish SaskPower has awarded its next utilityscale wind facility to Renewable Energy Systems (RES) Canada and Awasis Nehiyawewini Energy Development, a wholly owned Cowessess First Nation entity.

Set to be constructed south of Kipling in the RM of Hazelwood, the RM of Kingsley and on Cowessess First Nation reserve land, the Bekevar Wind Energy Project will supply 200 megawatts (MW) of zero-emissions power, enough to serve up to 100,000 homes.

“Reducing greenhouse gas emissions by at least 50 per cent below 2005 levels by 2030 is a priority for SaskPower,” said Mike Marsh, SaskPower president and CEO in a news release. “Incorporating wind power through projects such as Bekevar is a crucial component of our strategy to make significant reductions to emissions while ensuring SaskPower can supply reliable, sustainable and affordable power to our customers.”

“To be awarded

with the Bekevar project in collaboration with RES is a milestone for our First Nation, which helps continue to lead Indigenous renewable energy development in Saskatchewan,” said Chief Cadmus Delorme in a news release.

“We look forward to utilizing what Mother Earth has granted us with, while working with RES to help Saskatchewan achieve the desired carbon reduction targets.”

Gary Vargo, administrator for the R.M. of Hazelwood, said they’ve had minimal negative comments regarding this project.

“We’ve had far more positive comments.”

“It’s certainly going to change the looks of the landscape, but we’ve gotten used to looking at oil wells when at one time they were few and far between in this area.”

“Green energy is here to stay,” comments Vargo.

The size of the turbine is yet to be determined whether it’s between a five and sixmegawatt (MW) turbine in the 200-MW project.

“We haven’t seen a

turbine layout as of yet,” explains Vargo.

The majority of the land for this project lies in the R.M. of Hazelwood east of the 605 grid.

Vargo feels that this project will be positive for the community: “The community as a whole will benefit as there’s going to be a lot of construction and a lot of job opportunities. We’ve got good construction companies here.”

“They will also need long-term employees for maintenance after the project is finished.”

“It will be a boost to the economy,” explains Vargo. “For the municipality, there will be taxation. There will be a taxation boost as far as the assessment. That not only puts money into the municipality which in turn can put money back into the community and it helps the other ratepayers of the municipality too. The higher our assessment is, the lower the taxes everyone has to pay. It will be an income boost for the landowners involved.”

“For the most part, our ratepayers believe it’s good for the commu-

Up to 40 wind turbines will be installed south of Kipling. nity,” says Vargo.

Holly Heikkila, administrator for the RM of Kingsley, says: “We’re right on the edge of the project so Kingsley won’t have near as many turbines although the specifics of the project haven’t been figured out yet.”

“I think it will definitely have a positive impact on the community,” says Heikkila. “They’re hoping to use local contractors to do some of the work for some of the construction and installation.”

It generates more

tax revenue for the municipalities.

“We’re one step closer to showing that we’re supportive of going green.”

“This project is very positive for the community,” says Heikkila.

“The number one question I’ve been asked is ‘How many turbines are going up?’ which is a question I can’t answer.”

“Landowners wouldn’t sign up if they didn’t feel this project was a good idea,” explains Heikkila.

“It’ll certainly be a change to the land-

scape…first it was oil, now it’s wind turbines.”

Another concern with some is how much noise do they make with the humming and the swoosh sound with every turn.

A power line will need to be built to connect the new facility to the grid. This line will run from the Kennedy Switching Station to the new facility.

Construction and site development of the project is targeted in the summer of 2022 with completion expected by the end of 2023.

Chylisse Marchand brings talent to artist’s colony

By Emily Klatt Redvers-based painter Chylisse Marchand is this week’s guest artist at the Artist’s Colony in Moose Mountain Provincial Park.

From July 6-12, Marchand will be exhibiting her work in one of the Artist’s Colony cabins located by the park chalet and visitor’s centre.

Marchand is a painter whose work has been heavily influenced by the beautiful, challenging and diverse experiences of her own life. She works primarily with oil paints, watercolours, and has recently begun experimenting with the medium of acrylic ink.

Born and raised in Gravelbourg, Marchand grew up in a family that encouraged her interest in the arts from an early age.

“It’s been a jour-

ney,” Marchand said of her evolution as an artist over the years.

After completing an arts education degree from the University of Lethbridge, Marchand married in 2005 and moved to the Carlyle area, where she accepted her first teaching job at the local elementary school.

Marchand and her family eventually moved to Redvers, where she still lives with her daughters. She currently teaches visual art, math and practical applied arts at Redvers School.

In January 2013, Marchand and her husband parted ways. Her artistic work became a source of comfort to her during this difficult time.

“That was kind of when I started to really delve into it just because it helped me put all of my emotions into art,”

Marchand said.

More recently, the COVID-19 pandemic prompted Marchand to dive deeper into her art than she ever had before. She began working with watercolours for the first time in 25 years, as well as acrylic ink.

“I think a lot of us sometimes think that we don’t need support and we just think … just go to work and do your thing and whatever,” Marchand said. “But for me, art has been like my release, just through COVID and everything else.

You know you have a bad day and that’s where I turn to, is art.”

While this is Marchand’s first time as a visiting artist at the Artist’s Colony, she sincerely hopes that it will not be her last.

The greatest glory in living lies not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall.- Nelson Mandela

Finally, some reasons to celebrate

By Murray Mandryk We can now go out and celebrate in Saskatchewan – that is, if we still remember how.

After 16 months of COVID-19 restrictions, we may have forgotten how to party.

Moreover, the cost of the pandemic combined with the residential school gravesite now casts pallor over the province’s mood.

But if you look around Saskatchewan of late, you can easily find plenty of reasons to celebrate.

Let us begin with getting rid of the masks this weekend and being able to gather in large groups like at ’Rider games: It’s sometimes worth having a party simply because you haven’t had one in a while.

That said, recent COVID-19 numbers are cause for celebration. These are numbers this province hasn’t seen since early October, showing that vaccines finally appear to be winning the war with new and more deadly variants of COVID-19.

Sure, Saskatchewan could be doing a lot better at getting people vaccinated. We have stalled at around the 70 per cent mark when it comes to eligible people over 12 years receiving a single dose — last in the nation. But we are leading or near the top of the heap when it comes to the percentage of people who are fully vaccinated.

Half of those eligible in the province are fully vaccinated. And with the new variants requiring two doses to be effective and with the legitimate concern of a sudden spread after we open things up, the importance of having fully vaccinated people cannot be underplayed.

Moreover, the removal of restrictions will improve the economy — great news for the current Saskatchewan budget that comes after news that the 2020-21 budget wasn’t quite as bad as we thought it might be. ne might rightly question whether we should be celebrating final numbers for the 2020-21 budget that still show a $1.3 billion deficit — especially given that the 2021-22 Saskatchewan budget will be dangerously close to double that amount.

Moreover, Saskatchewan budgets now appear to be structural problems largely due to excessive capital spending. Remember: we aren’t going to see a balanced budget this term.

Oil is again hovering around $75 US a barrel.

Saskatchewan agriculture was a huge success story in 2020 with a record $16.9 billion in exports and comparative fewer crop insurance payouts.

No one can guarantee similar success on the farm this year, but it is important to note that income tax numbers in 2021-22 budget will be better because of the farm revenue from the 2020 crop.

This is translating into other good news — 606,800 Saskatchewan people working in May, which are 24,600 more than a year ago. It’s still 4,300 fewer people working than in May 2019, but it surely is a sign of recovery.

Sadly, all this is now happening as this province and the country as whole grapples with the re-discovery of gravesites like the possible 751 graves found at the site of the former Marieval Indian Residential School at the Cowessess First Nation.

We are all struggling with the best way to atone for a history that we didn’t personally create but one that has clearly had a lasting effect on First Nations communities and people.

Last week’s announcement at Cowessess of a two-year, $38.7 million support from the federal government to take over child services seems a good start to righting this historical wrong.

The first-of-its-kind announcement at Cowessess offers new hope. It’s one more thing surely worth celebrating in Saskatchewan this summer.

Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens

Shelley Luedtke Quite some time ago, during week 11 of lockdown, I asked you to join me in a sing-along.

With the passing of many months since then, I thought it might be a good time to join in song once again.

This time let’s consider a show tune from a movie you may or may not admit to viewing (multiple times) in your life.

“The Sound of Music” is one of the most watched musicals of all time and even those who don’t like the movie probably know the songs from it, including one that has emerged as a Christmas classic.

In the original Broadway production, the song “My Favorite Things” was performed in the Mother Abbess’s

office, but those adapting the story for the screen thought it would be better if it took place in Maria’s bedroom so she could interact with the children.

In the scene, the young governess comforts her charges during a storm by singing about her favorite things, hoping it will distract them from what’s going on outside.

Today, instead of “raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens,” let’s switch it up a bit and think about where we were…and where we are now.

I think we’ve got some things to sing about.

Started for us back in March 2020 Leaders and doctors gave updates aplenty Time to stay home was the message to all There’s a pandemic that now casts a pall.

Schools shut the doors so the classrooms went cyber Children indoors became sliders and climbers Offices now in the kitchen or den When would we be back in meetings again?

When’s my Zoom call?

Is the boss gone?

I can’t take a chance I simply remember that this too shall pass And then I will put on pants.

No pretty dresses, just sweatpants or jammies Some had no contact with those in their families Going for days giving showers a rest Personal hygiene was sketchy at best.

Pets so confused no one left in the morning No time to sleep, they missed life that was boring Soon they learned how to get in on the fun Walked past our screen and got “likes” one by one.

Need a haircut Stylists’s doors shut What am I to do?

I simply remember this might start a fad And then I don’t feel so bad.

Keeping our distance, apart we were staying Had trouble hearing what others were saying Try to remember when we gathered last Wonder if hugs are a thing of the past.

Self-hosted parties like weddings, engagements Posting the outcomes became entertainment How many guests can be welcomed this week?

30? 100? Now back to 15.

No more hurry Days all blurry Take it as it comes I simply remember this one day will end And then I will see my friends.

We couldn’t travel so had to stay local Checked out the province and it made us vocal There’s so much beauty and fun to be had Staying at home really wasn’t so bad.

Then came the news of vaccines the world noted Rolled up our sleeves and we stuck it to COVID Positive test numbers on the decline Fewer in hospital was a great sign.

Not much longer Masks a bother Sanitizer smells.

We’re soon back to all of our favorite things So smile and ring the bells!

He aced it

Friday, July 9, 2021

Two reasons to celebrate On the Saturday morning of Carson Brady’s wedding, the wedding party went out for a round of golf at the Carlyle Golf Club. Luke Brady aced the 195-yard fifth hole. Pictured is Luke Brady holding the ball.

Brady in front of his entourage.

Gary Leslie had a moment he’ll never forget, when he recently aced the 16th hole at the White Bear Lake Golf Course. The Regina golfer proudly holds the ball he used to record his hole in one.

Speedway looks forward to large crowds in the stands

By David Willberg The Estevan Motor Speedway is looking forward to having a lot more fans in the stands, and to having one of its biggest programs of the year.

The speedway will have a doubleheader program on July 16 and 17 – the first programs after the provincial government is slated to lift all COVID-19 restrictions on July 11.

It means the speedway can have 1,500 fans in its main grandstand, compared to the 150 it has been limited to since the start of the 2020 sea-

son. Fans won’t have to wear masks, either.

It will also be the speedway’s annual late model programs. In a normal year, the late model show would be their second-biggest race program of the year, trailing only the Dakota Classic Modified Tour. But the mod tour won’t be at the speedway this year.

“It makes it even more special that it’s one of our more attended events,” said Estevan Motor Speedway vicepresident Brad Pierson.

People love the late models and they come from a great distance to watch them compete.

Pierson has received messages from people in Moose Jaw, wondering about ticket availability.

Drivers are scheduled to come from throughout Saskatchewan and into Alberta for the race program.

Spectators will also be watching from their vehicles along the south and the west fences of the track. About 100 cars can fit along the fenced area.

“That’s a different experience in itself,” said Pierson. “It gives the people the ability, if they have a small family, it’s … almost like their own private little party out there in the vehicle,” said Pierson.

There will be people watching from the grandstand in the pit area.

The other classes at the track – slingshots, hobby stocks, stock cars, sport modifieds and modifieds – are also schedule to be part of the program.

Food trucks have been a big part of the speedway’s success during the past year, and add to the experience.

The track’s concession has been closed since the start of the 2020 season.

They’ve worked with the speedway to have food like hamburgers and hot dogs, in addition to

Pierson stressed that you don’t have to be a big racing fan to enjoy a night at the races. They’re trying to promote the experience of going to the event and the social element.

“People are loving our food trucks. People just love the outing the speedway brings. We’re trying to sell the speedway as so much more than racing,” said Pierson.

Drivers listed as being from the Observer’s distribution area who have raced at the track this year include:

“I look at it as almost a regional speedway. It incorporates a big part of southeast Saskatchewan,” said Pierson.

Moose Mountain Soccer Club wins provincial competition

By Kaitlyn Meisner Moose Mountain Soccer Club (MMSC), based in Carlyle, won a provincial competition June 29 and gained the title of Soccer Town Saskatchewan.

The club is very proud and excited to have won first place in the competition and is looking forward to using their prize money to take their club even further.

The competition, which had over a dozen clubs participating, was hosted by the Saskatchewan Soccer Association (SSA) in co-ordination with Living Sky Sports

and Entertainment Inc. It consisted of sending in a video which demonstrated each soccer club’s passion for the game and their support for the expansion of the sport in Saskatchewan.

It was especially to show support for the implementation of a professional team and stadium in Saskatchewan. The grand prize for the winner was $5,000 towards facility and equipment improvements.

Scott Kirkness, the media co-ordinator for the MMSC, was the main creator of the video, and explained how its contents were meant to show

the club’s enthusiasm for the growth of soccer in Saskatchewan. Since the competition was meant to show support for the expansion of soccer, Kirkness focused on how the players in their soccer club today could go on to play soccer in even greater ways.

“The idea of the video was that we’re showing soccer from the grassroots … Saskatchewan Soccer Association’s been around (since) 1905. The game has a long, long standing presence in Saskatchewan, so I thought if we used younger, smaller athletes for the video … the whole idea was if we

Manor Fun Daze

have our own pro-team in the province, they have room to grow and somewhere to go and play as pros, so that was kind of the idea behind the video.”

The video consisted of several clips of little kids from the club playing and having fun, with many shots taken from the grass — continuing the theme of soccer from the Saskatchewan grassroots. The video also included a poem, which Kirkness wrote, about the different themes the club wished to highlight.

Overall, the club only had about a week to plan and create the video after they heard about the competition, but their time and effort paid off so that they were able to win a great amount of prize money for improve-

ments within their club.

The last couple of years have also been quite difficult for the club, with lots of transitions within their board, but also with COVID-19 challenges.

Therefore, the board members explained that winning the competition has allowed the club to feel a bit better about where they are headed, and they hope that this competition will highlight their club.

“I think it’s given us a boost in just morale and … encouraged us to keep going cause we’ve been trying really hard as a board to get the club going again and working hard together to … take it to another level and make it a bit more of a wellknown club and be able to compete with more ages and just grow the club,”

explained Krista Meisner, the treasurer for the Moose Mountain Soccer Club.

The club also had a great need for funds in order to make improvements, so the prize money itself will be important for the soccer club as it goes forward. The board has already started discussing ideas and are overall just grateful to be able to use the funds to take their club to the next level. For now, they hope to replace some equipment—such as their soccer nets, but in future, they also hope to think about other projects, like getting bleachers.

Carnduff celebrates Canada Day with lots to offer Submitted By Leanne Schell Canada Day Celebrations took place at the Carnduff Centennial Park this year, thanks to Choose Life Ministries.

This is the second year that Choose Life has put on the event. This year with COVID-19 restrictions, it was difficult to have the usual activities, but fun was still had by all.

Free swimming was offered at the Carnduff Swimming Pool, and it was the place to be on such a hot day. Music was playing at the park with DJ Hu. A concession was run by the Homestead for Hope with help from the Youth with a Mission Medicine Hat chapter.

There were volleyball and bocce ball games being enjoyed by all who attended. As usual, the fireworks at dusk did not disappoint.

Many people parked

around the Carnduff Ag grounds to watch the amazing display.

YWAM was in Carnduff as part of their outreach program. YWAM is a world-wide organization with the head program out of Kona, Hawaii. They offer a discipleship training program which consists of a six-month program blending classroom learning, small group activities, personal reflection, practical service and community living.

Due to restrictions the usual cold plate barbecue at the park was unable to happen. The ministry promoted local restaurants as an alternative to having supper at the park.

Choose Life Ministries is a non-profit organization that was established in 2012 by Shelley Boyes. It was founded to establish a place for young women between the ages of 18-29 to find freedom from life-alter-

ing challenges including substance abuse, mental illness such as depression and anxiety, unexpected pregnancy, the effects of physical and/or sexual abuse and challenges such as eating disorders and selfharm activities.

Choose Life was founded on five basic values which guide its actions as it seeks to support young women on their journey to freedom. At Choose Life, they strive to show, through word and deed, unconditional love and acceptance of the individual, without judgement, in a physical and emotional environment of safety and trust, so that each young woman might be empowered to achieve freedom from the bonds of past hurts.

They desire to exhibit these characteristics with excellence and accountability, underscoring the value we place on young women, as they

Second Chance Thrift Stores have been started in many communities such as Carlyle, Carnduff, Estevan, Fort

Qu’Appelle and Whitewood. These stores exist to raise funds for construction projects, to increase awareness of the ministry’s mission in Saskatchewan and to

provide a service to the communities.

For more information or to help, donate or volunteer check out www.chooselifeministry.ca.

Long-time Carnduff principal recognized The long-time principal at the Carnduff Education Complex (CEC) has been recognized for his commitment to sport at the high school level.

Ryan Nichols was the 2021 Saskatchewan High Schools Athletic Association (SHSAA) Service Award winner for the South East District.

The SHSAA announced the award via Twitter on June 21.

“I’m very honoured to receive it,” Nichols told the Mercury. “I definitely wasn’t expecting it, especially with how the year has gone with COVID and all of the restrictions, but it’s a great honour to receive it from the South East District, and the group of athletes and coaches I work alongside.”

Nichols has served on the South East District board as president for 10 years, and was also the

secretary. He has coached a variety of sports, including basketball, volleyball, golf, badminton, and track and field, and he has officiated high-level basketball and volleyball.

High school sports have been part of his life for 20 years. Prior to coming to Carnduff in 2004 to become the first principal of the CEC, he was working at the Chinook School Division as the vice-principal of Gull Lake School and he worked at a First Nations school in northern Saskatchewan.

He has taken an active role in high school sport because of the great coaches he had as a high school athlete in Moose Jaw. “I also had fellow administrators when I first started teaching that they encouraged me to get involved in Saskatchewan high school athletics,

Carnduff Education Complex principal Ryan Nichols has been saluted for his commitment to sport. Image submitted and athletics in general to provide athletics and education for students, and to build relationships

and a culture with the students in the schools I’ve been involved with,” he said.

It makes a school a better place, he said, when it has programs for athletes.

Nichols said he is proud to have worked with other coaches and administrators over the years. He continues to learn from other coaches, and he enjoys seeing other athletes from other schools. It allows him to associate with some great people.

Being involved in high school sports can be time consuming, because it’s time away from his family, but it’s rewarding to see kids be successful, and Carnduff has had a number of young people advance to opportunities at the university level.

“It’s neat watching kids grow from a Grade 9 athlete to a Grade 12 athlete, and seeing them enjoy the sport, and then watching them continuing on, and getting in-

volved in other communities when they move away.”

Nichols expects he will remain involved with high school sports and the South East District executive for some time.

A video posted to YouTube had photos of Nichols involvement with the CEC Tigers and a tribute message from Bill Crossman, a former SHSAA Merit Award recipient. Crossman noted that when Nichols arrived in Carnduff in 2004, they began to work together.

“Over the next six years, I saw your dedication to high school athletics and a caring approach to the students in our school,” Crossman said.

When Nichols took over from Crossman as the president of the South East District, Crossman said he felt very confident in the leadership Nichols would provide.

Manor School celebrates graduating class of 2021

By Emily Klatt Grade 12 students from Manor School gathered together on June 26 to celebrate their high school graduation.

Although COVID-19 health restrictions meant that this year’s graduation festivities looked different from those held in previous years, friends, family and community members still found ways to show their love and support for the class of 2021.

Celebrations began that day at 4:30 p.m. with a parade of the graduates through the town of Manor.

Community members had the opportunity to greet graduates and show their support.

The parade was led by the Manor Fire Department.

A formal graduation ceremony was held later that evening at 7 p.m. at the Manor Rink.

The ceremony largely came together thanks

to the hard work of the graduates’ parents.

The ceremony was emceed by community member Tory Poirier and the guest speaker was high school English teacher Michelle Cundall.

Other teachers and staff from Manor School provided their speeches virtually through a video presentation.

Charisse Yanchycki was this year’s valedictorian. Shay-Lynne Englot and Hannah Littlechief delivered predictions about the class’s future postgraduation, while the last will and testament was presented by Ross Brimner and Dominique Jurista.

Scholarships were also presented during the ceremony.

Yanchycki received the Anderson Family scholarship, the Moose Mountain Wildlife scholarship and the South East Cornerstone Public School Division scholarship.

Brimner was awarded the Manor

Manor found a way to celebrate its Grade 12 graduates this year.

School staff scholarship.

The ceremony concluded with a slide show featuring photos of the graduates throughout the years.

Despite some challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic,

the graduation was overall very successful, said Jamie Brimner, the mother of graduate Ross Brimner and one of the organizers of the ceremony.

“We feel that we were able to have a really nice grad, and that

it was very successful.

And it did come together in the end with all the challenges and different things that we face.

So we were feeling very fortunate to be able to have as nice a grad as we did have in the end,” Brimner said.

Brimner wishes to thank everyone in Manor and the surrounding community for all their help and support in making this year’s graduation a success, especially those who helped with last-minute changes.

Report from the Saskatchewan Legislature Submitted by Daryl Harrison Summer is always an exciting time in Saskatchewan and with our province leading the country’s economic recovery, a great Saskatchewan summer awaits.

Since so many of you have been vaccinated in the fight against COVID-19, Saskatchewan is on track to lift all public health orders. As vaccination numbers have gone up, case numbers have trended down, as have hospitalizations, making Saskatchewan a much safer place.

On Father’s Day, Saskatchewan entered Step Two of our Re-Opening Roadmap, with in-person gathering limits increasing across various sectors, as well as for private gatherings.

On July 11, Step 3 of our re-opening plan will see the removal of all public health orders, including mandatory masking and limits on events and gathering sizes.

While those who wish to continue wearing a mask will be free to do so, that will be up to them.

If you are not yet fully vaccinated, you are still at risk and should make it

SaskTel recently announced that over 30,000 more rural residents and businesses will gain access to advanced fibre optic broadband infrastructure, allowing them to fully utilize the latest digital tools and technologies to connect, learn and pursue business opportunities.

Originally announced in December, the Rural Fibre Initiative

is a multi-phase program that will bring SaskTel infiNETservice to over 40 rural Saskatchewan communities by the end of 2023. SaskTel has finalized the communities to be connected in the first three phases of the initiative, •Phase 1 - Balgonie, Biggar, Langham and Pilot Butte. Construction has begun in all four communities, and SaskTel anticipates that the majority of homes and businesses will be fibre ready by the end of March 2022.

•Phase 2 - Kindersley, Meadow Lake and Rosetown. Construction will begin in all three communities later this year.

•Phase 3 - Canora, Carlyle, Esterhazy, Fort Qu’Appelle, Hudson Bay, Indian Head, Kamsack, La Ronge, Lumsden, Maple Creek, Moosomin, Shaunavon, Watrous and Wynyard. SaskTel plans to begin construction in these communities in 2022.

•Phase 4 - SaskTel will spend $50 million to bring fibre to 24 additional communities to be announced at a later date.

Upon completion of this initiative, SaskTel estimates that approximately 75 per cent of the population of the province will have access to its fibre optic broadband network. SaskTel is also investigating partnership opportunities that would enable it to connect more communities beyond those included in the Rural Fibre Initiative.

The Governments of Canada and Saskatchewan recently announced 23 important infrastructure investments. Esterhazy, Unity, Meadow Lake and other communities will benefit from improved access to reliable potable water services while wastewater treatment facilities will be upgraded and expanded in Humboldt, Oxbow and Grenfell. Other communities will benefit from projects that deal with

the decommissioning of landfills or flood prevention projects and recreation projects include upgrades to the Rexentre Arena in Fort Qu’Appelle.

After the events of the past year, we’re all excited to explore and enjoy Saskatchewan. In doing so, please remember that this is going to be a busy construction season.

I would encourage you to plan your travel using The Highway Hotline and urge you to slow down and obey signage in work zones. This includes slowing to 60 kilometres per hour, even when workers aren’t present.

For updates, visit The Highway Hotline at www.saskatchewan.ca/ highwayhotline. Highway information is also available by phone by dialing 511.

As always, if you have questions, comments, concerns, or require assistance with provincial government programs or services, please contact our constituency office.

What’s happening in Agriculture

Hydraulic room opens at the Living Sky Co-op in Peebles

By Laura Kish Living Sky Co-op in Peebles carries many supplies including hardware, garden supplies, lumber and more.

They also stock a variety of items for the farmers in the area and they have recently offered yet another service to repair and man-

ufacture hydraulic hose ends. It’s their new hydraulic room which has officially been up and running since the harvest of 2020.

“We can service the construction companies and the large farm equipment,” explains petroleum manager Dave Lowenberg.

“We can provide a

wider variety of options such as a one-inch hose, whereas the other guys will only service up to 3/4-inch.”

“We’re learning by trial and error as we first get going and learning what parts to keep in stock,” explains Lowenberg. “We have the basics - pipe thread, JIC, ORB, and we’ll ex-

pand from there on sizes and such.”

Living Sky Co-op not only serves the farming community but also the constructions companies, as well as their crimping machine.

“We carry a full line of the hydraulic hoses, hydraulic fluids for industrial and ag, and it just makes sense to stop in here.”

The Corning location has offered this service for a while, so Living Sky Co-op manager Jason MacDonald wanted to expand this same service at the Peebles location, and since Lowenberg had the experience he thought it was a good fit.

Their hydraulic room was built specifically for this reason. It is vented out and is heated as well to offer this service throughout the winter months.

“It’s all trial and error but so far every hose we built we haven’t had any come back so it must be a success,” says

Lowenberg.

Living Sky Coop provides one-stop shopping.

“Our oil is made for all equipment,” explains Lowenberg.

“FCL (Federated Cooperatives Limited) is the only company that blends their oil in Saskatchewan. It’s all nice and handy. We carry ag, industrial and even have oil for the standard vehicle.”

Being the petroleum manager, Lowenberg says they’re busy basically from March 1 until the end of June and then they’ll have a little breather until harvest.

“There’s always something going on though,” he says.

Lowenberg goes on to say: “The fuel and the oil business has grown a lotwh, ich is fantastic.”

“Not only has the bulk fuel business grown but we have the pay at the pump credit card 24-hour cardlock which has steadily seen

The finished product of putting an end on a hose. an increase in customers.”

One final comment

by Lowenberg, speaking of the farmers in the area in regards to Living Sky Co-op’s hydraulic room: “If they’re not working, we’re not working.”

Proud to be part of the agricultural community!

This year's sale set a record with 38 steers averaging $2.92/lb. The steers were auctioned by Rhett Parks of Whitewood. Thank you to Rhett for donating his time for this auction, as well as allowing our 4-H group to take over his facility for our event! The high selling steer this year sold for $3.90/lb, and was owned by Jackson Mannle of the Whitewood Club.

Intermediate Record Book Levi Jamieson, Fairmede

To end the day the 4-H members and steer buyers were given supper vouchers that were sponsored by 3M Beef Supplies from Moosomin and Fine Line Designs of Whitewood.

Congratulations to all of the members on a great day and thanks to everyone who made this day possible. 4-H is a great program that teaches leadership, dedication and hard work to its members and leaves them with the tools to become great community leaders. Without the dedication of the leaders and volunteers, and without the support of the steer buyers and sponsors, this show would not be possible, and these young members would not have the chance to complete their projects and showcase all of their hard work.

Alida news – swimming pool opens for the season Submitted by Edel Cowan

At the beginning of July, Alida increased its population by two – the community wishes to welcome Neil and Brenda Roberts (from B.C.) to our area. Welcome folks – I do hope you will enjoy our little town.

Hope you had a great Canada Day and survived the heat.

Dale Anthony participated in the Canada Day parade at Redvers.

He drove one of his tractors which pulled a trailer with a stationery engine on display.

Many of our local residents enjoyed the

beginning of their holidays this past weekend going to their campers at the Moose Creek Regional Park.

Linda and Don Akins helped her mother celebrate her 93rd birthday in Redvers on June 30 as well as other family members.

Happy birthday Mrs. Rogg, hope you had a great day.

Congratulations to Linda Akins who was the lucky winner of $2,265 on June 30 from the 50/50 draw held in honor of Dana Nelson & Jesse Germain (bride/groomto-be). Also congratulations to Dana and Jesse on their share

of the 50/50 and best wishes on their upcoming wedding on July 10.

Due to the COVID pandemic a shower and/or stag could not be held in honour of the happy couple, so her friends came up with this 50/50 draw idea instead – neat idea girls.

The Alida Swimming Pool opened its doors on July 2 for this year’s swimming season. And the first set of swimming lessons began on July 5. Of course wouldn’t you know it – lessons were temporarily cancelled due to a rain shower. Sorry kids, but the moisture is greatly needed.

Jeff Cowan and

friend Raylene Markoski spent a few days camping in the area, visiting with friends and also having a quick visit with his parents Gray and Edel before heading home to Regina on July 4.

The Alida Community extends sincere sympathy to the Arthur families on the death of James (Jim) Arthur of Regina, who passed away June 25 at the age of 77. He was predeceased by his parents Ken and Lillian, two brothers-inlaw and a niece. Jim is survived by his wife Cheryl (Curtis), children Layne (Sandra), Leanne (Trevor) and

a

We

their families, his sister Jennetta Arthur-Devlin, in-laws and several cousins, nieces and nephews. A celebration

of life will be arranged later in the fall. Condolences are extended to all family members as well.

He was nominated and inducted into the Saskatchewan Hall of Fame in 2020. Clarence also received Farmer of the Year recognition for achievement in farming, combined with good citizenship, local, provincial, national and international involvement.

In addition to an active farming and community life Clarence always had time for local and youth sporting events, 4-H judging, and time for family celebrations.

As an active member of the Kisbey United Church, his faith will have brought him home. He will be missed by all the family, friends, and livestock community.

A Public Graveside Service was held on Friday, June 18, 2021 at 2:00 p.m. at the Arcola Cemetery with Mrs. Bev Ireland officiating.

If friends so desire, donations in Clarence’s memory may be made to a charity of choice.

1996, in Estevan Provincial Court.

Blueforce Logistics Ltd. pleaded guilty June 21 to contravening subsection 94(1) of the regulations: fail, where there is a risk of injury to the skin of a worker from sparks or molten metal, to provide and require the worker to use approved protective clothing or covers or any other safeguard that provides equivalent protection for the worker, resulting in a serious injury to a worker.

The company was fined $46,428.57 plus a surcharge of $18,571.43 for a total of $65,000.

One other charge was withdrawn in court.

Charges stemmed from an incident that occurred on Jan. 14, 2019, in Oxbow. A worker was seriously injured when sparks from a grinder ignited a fire on the worker’s clothing.

Employers are required to provide approved protective equipment that is required by the regulations, and they must require their employees to use the equipment. For more information about health and safety in the workplace, visit www. worksafesask.ca.

Feel the Heat at Maryfield Sunrise Villa news Centennial Park Submitted by Betty Walker

Late June and early July brought us different things weather-wise. We had heat, a couple of good showers, and of course, our typical Saskatchewan wind. This sure helped to make our courtyard more beautiful and the gardens grow.

There are tiny cucumbers, tomato blossoms, lettuce and radishes. We also got to see the 2021 Maryfleld High School grad class parade. Since COVID-19, graduating classes have had to think of something other than the usual.

Well Maryfield’s was unique, it started off with a low flying

plane leaving a trail of red vapor and it made several passes.

They were then led by the fire department and ambulance and then two flat beds with the grads dressed in their fine attire. I’m sure those grads will never forget the year of the parade with a fly by. Congratulations on a job well done.

We have exciting news that on July 11 we may be able to come to some normalcy in a near normal world. Hoping to travel, visit and receive more entertainment and visitors soon. They all say good things come to those who wait – well, we’re waiting.

When I heard of the devastating loss of homes and a town, I

counted my blessings that I lived in an air controlled building and didn’t even have to go outside if I didn’t want to. July 1 took me back to my school days. Janet, a former teacher, played O Canada at noon, and on cue from Fred, we stood and sang, and it made us feel good to do something positive.

There is much activity around our building as they are putting sidewalks all the way around the perimeter and won’t that be nice. We will be able to strengthen our legs. Other than that things went along as usual and we’re counting the days until I can write more positives.

Born to Justin and Amy Lamontagne, twin sons on June 25. They have been named Everett Michael Ryan (weighing four pounds and nine ounces) and Beau Robert Bruce (five pounds, six ounces).

Grandparents are Bob and Kim Lamontagne and Bruce and Bonnie Easton of Moosomin.

Great-grandparents are David and Shirley Brimner and Maurice and Arlene Lamontagne.

When our twin granddaughters were born eight years ago, I said that a family didn’t need twins but it really made things more interesting.

A funeral service was held at the Wawota United Church and a committal were held on June 28 for Eunice Rogers. She passed away in April 2020 at the age of 93 years. Many family members attended this event.

Danni Dennis has purchased the former home of Leona Brim-

ner at 300 Lonsdale St. Welcome to the neighbourhood, Danni.

Justin Olson and Tamara Buckingham and Callie stopped for a brief visit with the Keith Olsons last weekend before a camping weekend at Kenosee Lake.

Congratulations to 18-year-old Theoren West, who won the Maple Leaf Junior Tour golf tournament in Estevan last weekend.

He shot a 74 and a 71 to gain the first place finish. Theoren West is the son of Rob and

Kyla West.

Brooks Laich, a former resident of Wawota, has announced his retirement from the NHL. Although he hasn’t played for the past three years and most recently was with the Los Angeles Kings, he spent 13 successful years with the Washington Capitals. He was signed in February 2001 with the Ottawa Senators and traded to the Washington Capitals in 2004. Wawota enjoyed seeing the success of this hometown boy.
