Stoughton Daze enjoys great weather and fun times By Stephanie Zoer

Stoughton Daze lucked out with the weather on July 8-10. At the beginning of the week, it looked to be a wet, messy situation but the sun was shining and the temperature kept climbing. Starting on July 8, the Stoughton Golf Club held a nine-hole Texas scrambler tournament, while the band Switch entertained at the Crossroads Inn. The following morning, a delicious pancake breakfast was served up by the fire department. The firefighters served around 170 hungry customers. According to Pat Slatter, these numbers are down from past years, but still was a great turnout. At 10 a.m., the Lions’ parade began. The police, with sirens on, escorted the parade up Government Road, past the school, around the flat-top building and past the Pioneer Lodge. Residents of the lodge sat outside with smiles

waiting to see the colourful floats, horses and to collect candy. The parade continued down Main Street with hundreds of onlookers. Eager children grabbed candy and enjoyed all the sirens and floats. A show and shine displayed beautiful vehicles along Main Street after the parade and could be seen throughout the day. With the day heating up, and close to 30 C, the Stoughton Lions Club sponsored free swimming for the entire day. The pool was well used by all ages, according to Abby Bouvier, who worked the pool that day. There was more excitement downtown at the drop-in centre. Displays of crocheting, knitting and children’s work were available for everyone to enjoy. The bouncy castles, located at the grounds, were a big hit with the kids. Also, a face-painting booth was set up by volunteers Emma Gunnlaugson and Mikayla Jordan, just outside the castles.

Six teams entered a slo-pitch tournament, as friends played friends to win. The Vogel family and Goudy gang had some great competition in their game, but still took the time to sing happy birthday to Oliva. Beach volleyball was also added this year. Although only three teams came to play, they had a blast in the pits. Many of them also played in the slo-pitch tournament, so that kept them busy. At the horse arena, Shayda King demonstrated her trick riding skills. Her trusted and skilled horse Cloud loped around the arena while King would stand on his back or hang alongside by one leg. The crowd showed their appreciation with their loud cheers. According to her mother Tammy King, Shayda was always on the go. As a toddler, King would ride in front of her mother in the saddle but would never sit. “She always had to stand on the saddle with her arms in the air,” said Tammy King.

BIG ON NOW!

With the heat, the beer gardens saw a steady flow. The evening was completed with the bright colours of the fireworks. The air display went on for about 20 minutes to a full parking lot at

the grounds. The honking horns showed the crowd’s appreciation to the fireworks crew. The weekend finished July 10 with Splash Yourself with Colour, a five-kilometre colour run-walk. The proceeds from this event went to the Stoughton Swimming Pool.

“The volunteers are amazing, and this cannot be done without them. They work hard and make it successful,” said Stoughton Recreation Board member Karla Gervais. “Also, a huge thank you to all the sponsors for making this a momentous event.”

his lifetime and often he and his family were regularly housed at Ronald McDonald House in Saskatoon. It was indeed their home away from home. Carter just celebrated his 18th birthday and, for the past year, his parents, Trevor and Lisa Morrison, have wanted to give something back to Ronald McDonald House in appreciation of their hospitality over the years. They decided on hosting a par-3 golf tournament which was held Sunday at the Carlyle Golf Club. A total of 108 golfers participated in the 18hole tournament and there was a waiting list. In addition to the nine closest to the pin and nine long putt prizes, hole in one insurance was purchased for all holes. Up for grabs were two cars, five $10,000 prizes, and 11 $20,000 prizes. Golfers teed up 12 to a hole and each hole was a par three of between 160 and 180 yards in length. On his 13th hole (hole number seven), Carlyle resident Tim Lequyer addressed his ball. “We were going directly into a strong west wind, and I used a four hybrid. I didn’t see it go in but apparently the hole spotter, Tim Brady, gave me the slam dunk sign. I thought I had overdriven the green but when we got there my

Lequyer won $20,000. Over the years, the Morrisons have spent over 100 nights at Ronald McDonald House. Karen Linsley is the director of development and communications and was in attendance. “We are so very grateful to the Morrisons for hosting this Home Away from Home Tournament,” she said. “The Morrisons have been amazing ambassadors for Ronald McDonald House Charities Saskatchewan over the many years they have utilized the House in Saskatoon. “Thank you to everyone who attended the tournament to help support the mission of

RMHC-SK. We support families by keeping them close to their loved ones while their child is receiving medical treatment either in Saskatoon or in our family room at Prince Albert Victoria Hospital. We wish Carter all the best as he begins the next chapter of his life in Medicine Hat.” Individual awards and raﬄe prizes were handed out after the roast beef and pork roast supper, catered to by Rylan and Cindy Weir. Host and master of ceremonies Trevor Morrison thanked everyone who attended the event, including the Carlyle Golf Club, Carlyle District Lions Club, the many various sponsors, hole spotters and Steve Polsom and his grounds crew.

“When we decided to put on a tournament, our family had five goals. The first was to thank Ronald McDonald House for being a big part of our lives, the second was to provide the house with much deserved exposure. The third goal was to highlight the excellence of our nine-hole local golf course. The fourth was to have fun. And, finally, my personal goal was to have a player score a hole-in-one. It just doesn’t get any better than that.” The entire net proceeds from the tournament will be going to Ronald MacDonald House. While the exact amount is still unknown, the donation will be substantial and greatly appreciated.

A Carnduff landmark gets a facelift By Paul Kimball

What’s red and white and red all over? This isn’t a joke. It actually happened. In 1965, when Carnduff was organizing their 60th homecoming birthday, the powersthat-be wanted to do something a little different. They picked out a site on Broadway, their main street, and decided to build a red barn that everyone could help construct. Everyone attending that weekend was invited to pound a nail into the structure. About 1,000 people did, including the premier of Alberta of the day, Ernest Manning. Manning was born in the Carnduff area, so this was a real homecoming for him. As well as hammering, people signed autographs on the inside walls. Over the years, more and more have been added. Eventually there were thousands of signatures in this upand-coming landmark.

The red barn before the recent renovations. Photos submitted by Ross Apperley When the small barn was finished, it was moved to the local park where it has been used ever since for storage and a concession booth for community events. It also available, free of charge, for families and organizations who want to use the park facilities. Despite its size, it has become part of Carnduﬀ ’s landscape.

The red barn while it was white.

Over time, it started to show its age. A facelift was necessary. In 1990, a new tin roof was installed. Occasionally, a paint touchup was applied. Care was taken not to disturb the history on the inside walls. In 2015, for Carnduﬀ ’s 100th homecoming, funds were set

aside to upgrade the barn and the band shell that shared the park. Those funds sat in trust until 2021, when the renovations began. First the barn had to be jacked up to give it a new concrete foundation. That took up a lot of the funds. In 2022, an anonymous donation came in that

The red barn showing its new splendor. enabled the work to be finished. New walls were put on top of the old outside walls. Again, it was important to maintain the original condition of the inside walls. The final touch was applied. Upon the adding of the new outside walls, a coat of primer was applied. Carnduﬀ ’s

Red Barn was white for a short time. But then, out came the red paint to bring the barn back to its name. The white barn that was once red was now red again. So, there’s the answer to the riddle. Carnduﬀ ’s Red Barn was red and white and now it’s red for many years to come.

Cornerstone Cruisers show and shine well attended By Gord Paulley Last Saturday, the seventh annual Cornerstone Cruisers Show and Shine enjoyed beautiful weather and good attendance at the Kenosee Lake beach parking lot. There were 218 cars and trucks registered, with vehicles coming from as far away as Saskatoon, Kamsack and Brandon. The Cornerstone Cruisers Corp. is a registered non-profit located in southeast Saskatchewan. They are committed to the restoration, preservation and appreciation of past, present, and future vehicles, and enjoy the camaraderie of those that enjoy the same. Kevin Wilson is the president of the club,

John White is vicepresident, Rhonda Martin is the secretary and Rick Schreiner the treasurer. Presently there are 40 members, and the club is always looking for more. In addition to holding an annual show and shine, Cornerstone Cruisers also donates to STARS Air Ambulance and provides an annual scholarship to anyone interested in furthering their education to become an auto body technician or automotive service technician. Last year’s recipient was Levi Horn. Wilson was pleased with how the weekend went. “As is usual, we had great weather for our annual show last Saturday and there were people in attendance from all over southeast Sas-

“Only free men can negotiate. A prisoner cannot enter into contracts.”

- Nelson Mandela

Politicians must make country work By Murray Mandryk After a day-and-a-half meeting with other provincial premiers and territorial leaders, Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe tweeted out a message of hope and optimism. “We are returning home stronger and more united as we reaﬃrm our commitment to creating opportunities and improving the quality of life residents across the country,” Moe wrote at the end of the annual Council of the Federation in Victoria. Progress was made on critical issue at the gathering that included Indigenous issues, energy, food security and health care This is welcomed news, especially coming from a premier who has recently instructed his caucus to hold a series of economic sovereignty meetings seemingly centred around notions on what we can do more independently with less co-operation from Ottawa. The MLA-hosted meetings — some of which have been genuinely open to all constituents, but far too many that have been by invitation-only — seem to be based on a premise opposite to that hope Moe enthused about as he left Victoria. Among the topics that Saskatchewan Party MLAs are discussing is this province instituting its own police force that could serve as an alternative to local, rural RCMP detachments, and instituting its own system of income tax collection. Both responsibilities that now fall under federal jurisdiction would add significant expense to the province — no small irony, given that premiers’ meeting seemed all about the need for more federal dollars for things like health care. Herein lies the problem: Moe and the others may have reasoned points at these national forums, especially when it comes to whether Ottawa is doing the heavy lifting when comes to policies that preserve this nation. However, the province’s case that the federal government needs to spend more on things like public health care funding because it binds the fabric of the country together falls apart when the province is holding meetings that eat away at that fabric. Make no mistake that these “economic sovereignty” meetings have been as much of a magnate for special interest demanding things like ending access to abortion or any future public health/vaccine mandates along with those who truly seeking national solutions. It’s a reminder that finding reason and compromise in this vast and diverse country is never easy. Both the federal and provincial governments must continually work at this and that doesn’t seem to truly be happening from either direction right now. What we have often seen from Prairie premiers like Moe and Alberta’s Jason Kenney (who may soon be replaced by Danielle Smith with an even more aggressive sovereignty agenda) has been more about local politics than national unity or compromise. But make no mistake the problem flows both ways. Consider what federal Natural Resources Minister Jonathan Wilkinson has recently been saying. Wilkinson has continued to draw fire over the federal government’s Impact Assessment Act emerging out of Bill C-69. The Alberta Court of Appeal ruled earlier this year that the federal law that oversees things like pipeline development infringes on a province’s constitutional right to control its own natural resources. Moe has vowed to support Alberta in what undoubtedly will be a federal government challenge to the Supreme Court of Canada. Of course, this all could be avoided if the provinces and the feds would just get together on a bilateral agreement satisfactory to both jurisdictions. The first and foremost consideration for all federal and provincial politicians right now should be making this country work. That’s not been the priority it needs to be.

Reclaiming what used to be ours

Shelley Luedtke I loved going to summer camp. From the time I was a baby I went to Bible camp, either with the whole family or, when I was old enough, on my own. Since we lived in several places, I have fond memories of diﬀerent camps, but while the settings may have been unique, so much of the camp experience was similar. Friends, music, crafts, learning, sports, campfires and amongst all that, there was another moment I anticipated each day. Just after quiet time (ugh) we waited for the bell to ring, the bell that sent kids flying out of campers and cabins over to the canteen. Clutching our coins, we waited patiently for the line to inch forward so we could make our purchase. For me there was no decision to be made. I wanted one thing. A bottle of white cream soda. I guess ‘clear’ cream soda is the proper term, but I

always called the sweet flavoured pop white cream soda. It turns out there’s not a standard recipe for cream soda but by 1886, most bottlers were using vanilla to give the pop its flavor. Vanilla wasn’t readily available and because it was considered a luxury spice at the time, the exotic flavouring made it a sought-after beverage. Vanilla is one of the most expensive spices in the world, exceeded only by saﬀron, because it is a very labour-intensive product. Consider again the idea of vanilla regarded as a luxury item, because today some have taken over that word and it has come to mean boring and bland. It’s rather curious, considering vanilla is the top choice when it comes to ice cream, but as popular a flavour as we may perceive it to be, we have redefined that word to mean plain, lacking in interest and basic. Yet vanilla is truly the furthest thing from dull. It is a member of the orchid family, one of more than 25,000 diﬀerent species whose vast uses were trial and error experiments in the early 1800s, including its role in medicine. As those successful attempts were expanded, demand for vanilla rose sharply in the latter part

of the century as it became the top flavour for, among other products, ice cream and soft drinks. Today, most vanilla-flavoured products don’t contain real vanilla but rather a synthetic form, nonetheless it’s a product that elevates a food and pumps up the flavor. Yet that same vanilla, with its rich aroma and complex flavor profile, is now associated with a person or event considered ordinary or common, not special. To be called vanilla is an insult. In computer science and media, totally uninteresting programs are vanilla. It has also come to be used as degrading slang, particularly in the last decade. This happens quite a lot though, doesn’t it? Words, ideas and images that start out as one thing get poached by others and their original meaning gets lost, or even subverted, by another organization, group or cause. So how is someone supposed to respond? To speak out against it is to risk being labelled, even branded, for stating what we believe when it goes against slogans dominating the public sphere. To say nothing leaves the impression that we are okay with what has been appropriated. So, do we stand up to say this is not okay and

face the consequences inherent in that, or do we keep silent so as not to rock the boat? With dissention comes risk. Silence is interpreted as consent. I know people who have cancelled streaming services because so much of the content being produced is contrary to the values they personally hold. Last week I heard about a family who pulled the plug on their vacation plans because they can no longer support the stances taken by the resort where they were headed. Taking a stand can have a cost. But isn’t the cost potentially much bigger if we don’t? My heart broke after hearing the story of a young man who placed a drink order, not realizing that what he asked for now has connotations of a disgusting act. The harassment he experienced was nothing short of awful as people chose to ridicule rather than try and support. The oﬀensive order? A drink flavored with my beloved childhood beverage. If we continue allowing symbols, words and even food to be taken so far from their origin, what will be left? Perhaps it’s time to stand up, before there’s less and less ground to stand. That’s my outlook.

Former Arcola resident part of national panel

Former Arcola resident Trevor Tessier, who now resides in Weyburn, is hoping to add his views and expertise to an organization studying the issue of housing across Canada to develop a policy paper on how to address the situation. He was selected to be part of a group of young leaders from across the country to be a part of Action Canada, an independent, non-partisan and non-profit organization and charity based in Ontario, and led by Action Canada Alumni. He had to write an essay about housing issues as they pertain to southeast Saskatchewan, and was selected to be part of the group which will travel around to diﬀerent parts of Canada to study the housing issues in each region, over a 10-month period. The group started oﬀ in Ottawa, but he wasn’t able to make it due to the airport delays in Toronto. Other destinations for the group will take him to Yellowknife in September

and Quebec. “I will be touring around Canada to see how the housing crisis is diﬀerent in each area, and see some solutions to solve the housing crisis,” said Tessier, noting his is the lone voice from Saskatchewan in the group. Once they have toured to diﬀerent locations, the group will work together to formulate a policy paper to address the housing issue. Tessier was born in Arcola and graduated from Arcola School in 2009. He was involved in sports and extracurricular activities and still has family in the area. His father Alan and brother Regan still farm near Wilmar, and he has extended family members in the area. They frequently meet in Arcola to celebrate birthdays and holidays, and was most recently in the area for the Canada Day long weekend. “I still remain very fortunate for the teachers, friends and family for supporting me when I lived there and consider the southeast part of Saskatchewan home for me and my family,” he said.

Tessier lives with his wife Grecia and new son Aiden in Weyburn, and he is a director of primary health care with the Saskatchewan Health Authority. In addition to his work for SHA, he is an owner of Allied Exams Corporation and a low-income rental business. Trevor was also a former reserve military medic and now gives back by supporting the Royal Canadian Army Cadets as a leader. His work has roots in where he grew up, supporting underserved rural and remote communities, building teams, and connecting groups to focus on a common purpose through intersecting community partnerships, population health, and business eﬃciencies. In 2017, Action Canada and the Public Policy Forum joined forces to expand Canada’s top accelerator of new leaders. Together they deliver the Action Canada Fellowship, a 10-month public policy leadership program with a 17-year track that aims to enhance emerging leaders’ understanding of the

Sports Wawota’s Theoren West is a talented golfer By Gord Paulley Born and raised in Wawota, 19-year-old Theoren West has had a golf club in his hands since he was three. The son of Rob and Kyla West, he is also the grandson of Kelly and Wendy Greenbank and Gord and Mona West. West graduated from Wawota Parkland School in 2021. That fall, he was awarded a golf scholarship to Bellevue University near Omaha, Neb., where he just completed his first year of university. Bellevue started its golf program in 2011 and last year the men’s team was ranked

third in the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA). West has entered many tournaments and competitions over the years and won the Saskatchewan high school provincial title in 2019. Last year, nationals were held in Montreal and West placed an impressive 19th overall. No longer considered a junior, his next event is the Saskatchewan Amateur Men’s Championship. This competition ran from July 12-15 at the Cooke Municipal Golf Course in Prince Albert. Since 2020, West’s golf coach has been Jeﬀ Chambers, who lives and teaches

in Swift Current. West visits him monthly and keeps in regular weekly contact. This summer, West is employed as a maintenance man for Golf Kenosee. With regular working hours from 6 a.m.-2:00 p.m., it leaves West the entire afternoon to tinker with his game. He alternates teeing it up from either the blues or the blacks virtually every day. West has a handicap of 3.6, which is impressive for a man his age. He is six feet tall and weighs 170 pounds. He can drive a ball 300 yards. West’s entire set of golf clubs are made by Titleist. His preferred ball is the Pro V1X.

West is a polite and modest young man. “Ball striking is my strength and I feel I am a good putter and chipper,” said West. “I must continue to improve my mental game. Practice makes perfect.” West also wishes to thank his many family and friends that have supported him over the years, especially his grandfather Kelly Greenbank. “Grandpa has been there for me since I was a little kid and I owe him everything. He pumps me up and keeps me focused.” At this time, he is unsure about what he will be doing this fall. But one

following him wherever he goes.

The Oxbow Seawolves’ swim meet finally happened By Paul Kimball

In 2012, the Oxbow Seawolves hosted a swim meet. Over the next 10 years, many applications were submitted in the hopes of hosting another one but it wasn’t meant to be. In 2018, the town

finished a beautiful outdoor junior Olympic-sized swimming pool and hoped that would lead to that elusive meet. Finally an application was accepted. On July 10, competitive swimmers converged on Oxbow for the first oﬃcial meet in the decade. One hundred and two

swimmers came from Regina, Swift Current, Assiniboia, Estevan, Weyburn and Rocanville. There was also good representation from the host club, the Seawolves. Approximately 50 events were run for boys and girls in age divisions from seven and eight right

up to 18 and over. The host club was very pleased with the three silvers they earned. Brendan Ball won his in the boys’ nine and 10, Jordan Macfarlane swam away with his in the boys’ 13-14 and coach Corey Purves medalled in the girls’ 15-17. Not bad for a small team. There was a 51st unoﬃcial race. A race against the weather. With thunderstorms predicted for the afternoon, there was an urgency to get all the races finished sooner rather than later. The lunch break was shortened; everyone swam a little faster and the race was won. The swim meet hit the finish line long before the thunder and lightning showed up. Hosting a day like this is expensive. Medals and ribbons have to be purchased; oﬃcials and

coaches need to be fed; fees need to be paid to Swim Sask.; mileage and accommodation for the referees have to be covered. The list of expenses is long. The Seawolves were very thankful that many great prizes were donated that enabled them to hold a Chinese auction to help defray the costs. Ultimately, finances were not the day’s main purpose. It was all about the swimmers who were

able to participate in a sport that they love and for the hometown Seawolves to be able to compete in their own pool in front of their own fans. Summer swimming starts at the beginning of May and runs to the end of August. The Seawolves began practising in June. They would love to have more swimmers. If you’re interested, details about the team and public swimming can be found on their Facebook page.

She Shed creations are made from wood By Stephanie Zoer Once Susan Smith had outgrown her craft room on the farm, she and her husband Dennis purchased a house in Stoughton to display her wooden creations and start a business, She Shed. Smith was born and raised in Kipling with her seven siblings. Dennis was a farm boy and was raised in the Handsworth area with his 11 siblings. When the couple married, they farmed cattle and grain for 50 years. Now their two sons are interested in farming, and they can slow down. For the past four years, Susan Smith has enjoyed woodworking. Her first project was not a small one, as she built two playhouses for her grandchildren. One is located in Creel-

man and the other in Foam Lake. She enjoyed it so much, she began smaller projects and it just grew from there. Smith loves to take old, framed screens, distress them and stencil the screen with sayings or add colourful flowers. Fancy hooks may be added to give it that extra touch. The front porch is warm and welcoming, with porch signs and planters. Upon entering her store, people will see how meticulously kept it is, but they will also hear Smith hammering away in the back room, were she does her work. The shelves in her work area have house paints, sandpaper and stencils. Each room is uniquely decorated with her wooden pieces, which are carefully

stenciled with a saying. Not one of her pieces are the same. If someone sees a piece that they like and want a distinct colour, she might make one in the colour of their choice. Smith’s face lights up when she talks about her art. “I just love working with wood, and hopefully others love my pieces as much as I do,” she said. Her sister Sandra Demchuk is the artist in the family, as Smith admits she cannot draw. Smith plans to display her sister’s work, as she paints pet portraits. At present Smith does not do consignments, but it is something she is thinking about, as long as it is homemade. Smith is pretty excited about her new business, and she said it is slowly getting busier.

Alida news – Residents enjoying summer visits Submitted by Edel Cowan I wish to extend my apologies to the Stewart and Barber families for having unintentionally omitted their son’s/ grandson’s name from the list of graduates that has ties to our area (R.M. of Reciprocity). It wasn’t until the grad

pictures came out in the paper that I realized I had missed a couple of grads. They are Robby Stewart (parents, Brett and Mariline; grandparents, Dick and Barb) and Michael Barber (parents, Neil and Joan) from Carnduﬀ. You are important and have done well in reaching this your first goal. Congratulations and good luck in

your future endeavors. (Thanks, for your phone call, I do appreciate it and am sorry, it was my error). The Alida community extends sincere sympathy to the Black family on the passing of their mother Louise Hodge on July 4 at her residence, Fairview Personal Care Home in Brandon, Man., at the

age of 92 years. Louise will be remembered by her children Karen (Terry) Parker, Dennis Black, Glenn Black and Norma Staples.

All Folk’d Up in Montmartre is for the music lovers By Stephanie Zoer

If you love music and enjoy time away with your family and the great outdoors, the 11th annual All Folk’d Up music festival was for you. This festival was held July 8-10 at the Kemoca Regional Park at the edge of Montmartre. Dakota Jackson is the festival co-ordinator. It has been her job for five years, although two of those years the event did not take place, due to COVID regulations. “People came from all four prairie provinces, but we also had visitors from Ontario,” said Jackson. This is a family event, and there is something for all ages. The children would not get bored here. The well-organized children’s pavilion hosted face painting, a bubbles station and outdoor games. A craft station was set up and the tye dye t-shirts proved to be very colourful. Some of the bands were children’s performers and they did not disappoint the young crowd. The not-so-shy

ones hit the dance floor. With over 20 bands, there was music for everyone’s taste, from country to oldies and country classics. Not a fan of country, well they had rock and roll, classic rock and a touch of Latin. The bands kept the crowd dancing and singing along all throughout the evening. According to Jackson, the festival has seen first-time performers, such as the Hunter Brothers. This often gives the bands their start in the music world. Over 1,000 eager music fans came through the gates. They could purchase a t-shirt for a souvenir, or they could check out the unique booths that were set up with handmade jewelry, pens, clothing and books. Three hometown groups also took centre stage. On July 9, Garnet and Jean Ripplinger, King for a Day and Dead Levee showed oﬀ their vocals. On Sunday was the cowboy Sunday service with Bonnie and Curtis Szakacs and Family. The beer gardens of-

Gliem performed Sunday afternoon at the All Folk’d Up Music Festival with their exciting rock music. Photo by Stephanie Zoer fered some refreshing beverages throughout the event, along with food just outside the gates. Montmartre is a town with approximately 500 people.

The committee has seven members, yet it takes over 80 volunteers to pull this oﬀ. The set up and take down can be done in two hours. “If a person can’t make their scheduled

shift to work, there is always someone else who will step up to the plate to help out,” said Jackson. This was the case a few times over the weekend, yet it all worked out.

The sunny skies and warm weather made for camping weather, and the campgrounds were filled. Luckily, the rain went elsewhere, and the music could continue without a hitch.

LAND WANTED

DeLee Grant takes her painting seriously By Stephanie Zoer DeLee Grant knew in Grade 1 that she loved art, as it was her favourite subject in school, and this continued throughout school years. As an adult, Grant worked full-time for the federal government. She farmed with her husband Larry and raised two sons. She rarely had time for her photography or painting, but she did not give up on her love for the art. Grant and her husband Larry farmed fallow deer, 300 of them, while they both worked full time oﬀ the farm as well. They would often trailer their horses and ride the trails. The west block of Cypress Hills Provincial Park was a favourite place and, on the ride, out would come the camera. Grant would photograph landscapes. She has taken in scenic views throughout Saskatchewan. She has cap-

tured the beauty of the land in Vietnam and in Panama as well. After moving to White City, Grant began to focus on her second career, that being a photographer and artist. Although Grant enjoys taking pictures, she loves to paint. Her work has been displayed at the Artist Colony of Moose Mountain Provincial Park for the second straight year. She loves to paint on site. This is called plein art, which means painting what you see while sitting outside. Grant paints with oil and acrylic, but also with a paint called gouache. She enjoys painting old homesteads and anything that catches her eye, nature wise. “I take my painting very seriously,” Grant said. This shows in the beautiful pieces she has completed and has on display at the colony.

Plein Art painting is one of DeLee Grant’s favourite ways to create her masterpieces. Photo by DeLee Grant Having travelled to the United States, she attended the Plein Art Festival in Idaho in July 2019 and Utah in September the same year. It is a weeklong event of painting. After the week is finished, one piece is selected for competition. Grant won the Award of Excellence. For the past two years, this event was not held due to the COVID-19 re-

strictions, but she is hopeful it will begin again. Grant is the president of the Brush Works Art Guild in Regina, where they hold shows twice a year, one in the spring and the other in the fall. She also takes part in the Regina Performing Arts Centre. If you did not get a chance to see Grant’s work at the colony, it can be viewed in Regina.

Join the fun at Carlyle Fun Dayz By Gord Paulley Mark Aug. 20 on your calendar. That will be the seventh annual Carlyle Fun Dayz, which is an entirely free festival showcasing the

town of Carlyle. Led by chairman Tim Sedor, the small but talented Fun Dayz committee has been hard at work and the event has been completely ahead of the curve for weeks. Events begin with a pancake breakfast sponsored and served by the Carlyle District Lions Club. A parade will begin promptly at 11 a.m. Main Street will be entirely blocked oﬀ that day for the multitude of events planned. Early that morning, Nite Stage and Lighting out of Regina is bringing out their massive stage. It comes with a complete professional package, including state of the art lighting, sound and three

technicians. On this stage, five Saskatchewan artists are set to perform. Carlyle’s own Morgan Robertson starts the live entertainment at noon. Musician and songwriter Brody Siebert follows, and then the 1980s pop and rock tribute band Dangerous Cheese plays over the supper hour. At 7:00 p.m., Regina’s Vinyl Society takes the stage with Wey-

burn rock band Switch ending the evening. In the Carlyle Memorial Hall, a trade show has been organized with many local vendors planning to participate. At 2 p.m., there is high tea at the Rusty Relics Museum. In addition to the many restaurants in Carlyle, nine food trucks will be coming to Main Street, and nobody will be leaving town hungry. A beer garden will be open from noon to midnight. Carlyle Fun Dayz is family oriented, and the children will have plenty to do. A Kids Zone will be in operation from when the parade is over until 5 p.m. Magician Chester McBain will have two performances as will the Saskatchewan Reptile Show. There will be bouncy castles, a petting zoo, a climbing wall and a balloon artist. Also there to entertain the kids will be Buzz Light-Year, PJ Masks, Thomas the Train, and a 12-foot-tall dinosaur. Sedor is really looking forward to August 20. “We had a great crowd last year, but our committee thinks 2022 will be even bigger and better,” he said. “Our goal is to make Carlyle Fun Dayz the largest one-day festival in all of rural Saskatchewan. The event really raises the profile of the Town of Carlyle and provides a tremendous economic boost.” You can follow Carlyle Fun Dayz on Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok. Their website is www. carlylefundayz.com. As stated on their Facebook page, “Can you think of another way you can have this much fun for free?”

Carlyle RCMP embarks on positive ticketing campaign By Sgt. Dallyn Holstrom It’s the ticket everyone wants. The Carlyle RCMP have teamed up with Southern Plains Co-op to help spread some positivity this summer. Carlyle RCMP Officers will be on the lookout to catch people doing positive acts this summer. This year’s positive ticket will earn you a free medium slushie. Some actions that can earn you a positive ticket include following proper bike safety, completing a random act of kindness, picking up litter, being a positive role model and assisting the elderly. As police officers we issue tickets every day for speeding, not wearing seatbelts and other infractions. These positive tickets give our Carlyle RCMP members the tool to reward and recognize the good we see in people. We really want people to be rewarded for all the positive things that happen in our communities so I really hope we catch you. Traffic enforcement was busy again this week, laying 34 fines for various charges including not having a driver’s licence,

unregistered vehicles, not wearing seatbelts and, of course, everyone’s favourite, speeding. The fastest speeder of the week was clocked at 135 kilometres per hour in a 100 km/h zone, which resulted in a $530 fine. I want to remind everyone that the speed limit is 60 km/h in construction zones as well as when passing emergency vehicles. On July 4, a brown purse was turned into the RCMP that was located beside one of the town buildings in Carlyle. RCMP used identification from inside the purse to contact the owner. The owner of the purse was very grateful to have her purse and contents returned to her. The owner advised that she had a really fun weekend and couldn’t remember where she left her purse. Also on July 4, the cows were up to their old tricks again for their beef with the RCMP on Highway 13 near Redvers. They have been udderly impossible to deal with as they continue to leave their fields and play on the road. I think they are milking the RCMP’s discretion for all its worth.

The steaks are always high when they play on the highway. That same day, RCMP received a call of a possible impaired driver driving a Chevrolet Monte Carlo on White Bear First Nations. The RCMP located the car and found that the driver was not impaired by alcohol. However, the driver was suspended from driving and there was open alcohol in the vehicle, which the driver was ticketed for. On July 5, RCMP received a complaint of a white Buick Lesabre being vandalized on Highway 48 near Wawota. The car had the passenger side window broken and its battery cables cut. Carlyle RCMP is requesting anyone with information about this incident to contact the Carlyle RCMP by calling 306-453-6707. Information can be submitted anonymously through Crime Stoppers by calling 1-800-222-8477 or submitting a tip online at www.saskcrimestoppers. com. That same day, RCMP received a call from a concerned son advising that his dad was intoxicated and he thought that he should come and

The RCMP spoke with the caller and advised that his dad was allowed to drink and be intoxicated in his own house, but that if his dad started to cause problems to please call the RCMP back. On July 6, RCMP responded to a loud party noise complaint in Arcola. Several neighbours in the area contacted the RCMP and advised the loud music was keeping them awake. The RCMP attended and had the party turn its music down and warned the homeowner about possibly being issued a noise bylaw ticket should the problem continue. On July 8, RCMP received a complaint of five youths drinking alcohol and smashing bottles on the playground at Kenosee Lake. The caller had yelled and chased the five youths away.

I want to ensure that if someone needs help the Suicide Prevention line is always available in the paper for them. We want to encourage everyone to reach out for help and talk to someone if they can. No matter how bad things may seem, remember that they can always get better. Life can be very diﬃcult to say the least. Please reach out and check in with friends, co-workers and family to see how they are doing. It’s a perfectly normal question to ask people how they are doing. Don’t let people suﬀer in silence. If you see someone that you believe needs some help but won’t accept help from you, please let the police or their family know. In Saskatchewan you can call/text the mental health crisis line at 2-1-1 Counselling Connect or the Saskatchewan Canadian Mental Health Association at 1-306-3849333. Have a great week and stay safe.
