The town of Carnduff became a showcase of classic cars, trucks and a fire truck on the morning of Aug. 15. Many from the area came out to see the vehicles and to meet and encourage their drivers. They were in town as part of the Canadian Coasters 2022 tour. Every five years or so, the Canadian Coasters take a cross-Canada trip, starting at one coast and travelling for about 2 1/2 months to reach the other coast. This year, the trip started in St. John’s on June 30 after a three-day meet and greet. The goal is to arrive in Duncan, B.C., on Sept. 5, where the trip will conclude with a farewell dinner. Fifty-four classics set out from Newfoundland. Forty-three pulled campers; 11 were driven by hotel preferers. When they arrived in Carnduff, 35 were still going strong. Some join the tour along the way, but others drop out. Some had to call it quits because of car problems, others got fed up with high gas prices and some withdrew for health reasons. For example, one driver fainted as he drove and his wife had to take the wheel and pull the car over to the side of the road. He was rushed to the hospital, where he received a pacemaker. Thankfully, he is recovering well. The tour included Carnduff because two of the Coasters were from the area. Before retiring, Murray and Carol Firth ran the family farm in Carievale. Her hometown is Gainsborough. They suggested the stop in Carnduff and everyone went along with the idea. The road trip is a great way to see Canada. Periodically, the tour will take a break and do some sightseeing. For instance, in Montreal they took a bus tour into downtown Montreal. They did the same thing in TheOttawa.drivers don’t drive in a convoy. They have designated meeting spots where they spend the nights, but the car owners choose their own routes as to how to get there. Occasionally they meet up at other spots, such as the Subway in Carnduff where they all assembled.BillSauder is an original Coaster. He was part of the first tour in 1967 that marked Canada’s 100th birthday. He started the trip, with his parents, as a 14-yearold and finished it as a 15-year-old, celebrating his birthday on the road between coasts. This was his second Coasters trip. “It’s not just about seeing Canada and showing off their 1977 Ford F100. It’s about meeting people. The people who are a part of the tour and the people who come out to cheer them on,” Firth said. The next stop was Mainprize Regional Park in Midale, where the tour would call it a day. The previous night was spent in Souris, Man., so that day was a typical trip, about four hours of driving time. A trip like this is not cheap. It comes with a price tag of $15,000$20,000. If you have the money and time and a vehicle that is at least 25 years-old, you might consider the next tour that’s planned for 2027. More information about the Canadian Coasters and this current road trip can be found on their website at www. coasters2022.com.

velopment officer Treena Mohrbutter said the Bow Valley Trails committee was formed in 2021 with the idea of constructing three natural walking trails in the beautiful Bow Valley Park. “The committee wanted to encourage recreation, physical fitness, the enjoyment of nature as well as celebrating the rich history of the area,” Mohrbutter said in an email to the Mercury. “The committee received financial support from the Souris Moose Creek Wildlife Federation, Affinity Credit Union District Council, Oxbow Lions Club, Oxbow Oilmen, Oxbow & District Recreation Board and the Bow Valley Park, with equipment assistance from the Town of Oxbow and the Moose Creek Regional Park, to build the trails.”
Along Oxbow trails, signs point out various histories of the valley. Photos courtesy of Treena Mohrbutter Historic photos that can be found on the sides of Oxbow trails give an idea of what was in the area years ago. Signs also share information about flora and fauna that can be seen along the trails.
Quantrill and Carrie Jo Niebergall are the committee organizers of the market, and this is their first year at the helm. When Quantrill was asked to take over the market, she knew help would be needed, and this is when Niebergall came on board. The markets are held Wednesday nights throughout the summerAtmonths. first it was difficult to find an evening and weekday for the market. They did not want to interfere with other markets in the area. The Lampman branch of the Royal Canadian Legion offered their parking lot for the event, and the Harvest Café allows use of their restrooms. On a good week, the market will see 10 to 12 vendors. These vendors come from the area to display and hopefully sell their Jeanettegoods.Ferchoff, a long-time resident of the Lampman area was also at the market selling the 75th anniversary homecoming cookbook. Over 30,000 of these cookbooks have been sold since it was printed 1984. Fresh produce is available along with home-baked breads. One vendor offers small sized pies and breads for the small families and seniors. Sourdough bread and sugar-free bread are offered by yet another vendor.Thekids could enjoy cotton candy, a waffle dog and have their face painted. They could also check out the slime and homemade play dough.Jeans, sewing, crocheting and homemade soaps were among the vendors as well. Each week the market will host a barbeque. The proceeds from one barbeque went to the Lampman Foodbank, raising $287 and attracting several bags of non-perishable foods.All money raised from the barbeques remains in the community, or if an organization holds one the proceeds would go to theEntertainmentclub. is another attraction at the market. Monica Dayton came to sing recently to the waiting crowd. With the weather permitting, the Lampman Farmers Market will continue into September. It is their hope to have more produce available in the coming weeks as gardens become mature.
By Ana Bykhovskaia Oxbow is inviting the community and guests to enjoy the history and landscapes through a tour of their trail system – a project that started several years ago in an effort to attract visitors and educate people about the area’s heritage. In 2016, the Town of Oxbow, the Town of Alameda and the RM of Enniskillen embarked on a tourism and heritage project highlighting the rich stories of the Souris-Moose Creek region.Many of those stories were set in the picturesque Bow Valley south of Oxbow. Stories ranged from evidence of the earliest Indigenous campsites to rum running and horse thievery, to baseball games and ChautauquaThepicnics.region’s boundaries can be traced around the town of Oxbow, the Moose Creek Regional Park and the town of Alameda.

The trails are located at Bow Valley Park in the Souris Valley. In the summer of 2022, the trails are being enjoyed by hikers, walkers and mountain bikers. The three trails vary in length and difficulty. Along the trails, signs point out various histories, flora and fauna of the valley.Benches have been donated and installed along the trails to enjoy the beautiful views.

One line we are not anxious to lead but are content to wait in is our life line. It is a great consolation that at the end of our lives, which is more literally “the end of the line”, there is someone waiting for us with open arms. Jesus has died and has risen, thus trampling death intoWedefeat.have heard enough hellfire and brimstone sermons to go with our natural doubts about God and eternity. Is God’s love all-embracing and magnanimous? Is Christ’s act of love good news to the sinner or is it condemnation?Iam reminded of a Good Shepherd story a priest from India shared. When he was a child growing up on a farm in India, his grandfather told him to go out and bring all the cattle into the barn. He said he went out with a stick and beat them and yelled at them, and they went in every direction. His grandfather asked, “What are you doing? That is not how you do it at all.” Then his grandfather took a sack of hay, gave a bit of it to each of the cattle, put the rest of it on his shoulder and walked ahead; and all the cattle followed him quietly into the barn. Have we not seen the Good Shepherd who gives his life for the sheep? He already nourishes us with his heavenly food. His love and gentleness invite and include. He is a God of mercy, not justice. (Matthew 9:13). We can get some indication of this by looking at the words and actions of Jesus on the day of his death. Jesus cried out about those who were persecuting, torturing and killing him: “Father, forgive them. They know not what they are doing.” In generosity, Jesus turned to the repentant thief and said, “Today you will be with me in paradise.” Recently I hung up the phone on a $5.5 million Publisher’s Sweepstakes prize which the caller claimed was mine, for a small fee. He insisted the money was on its way. Did I want the presentation to be a public or private event? There are prizes for which we should strive. Going to church regularly is one step in pursuing the eternal treasure. Daily prayers and scripture improve our chances for the big one. All kidding aside, the “big one” is already won. Christ died on the cross to give us that eternal reward. If we understood the tremendous love in the action of the cross, following evangelists preaching repentance would be easier.The good news is that Christ died for sinners, not for the just. Last time I checked, I was still among the eligible recipients. The Publisher’s Clearing House van may never stop in my driveway, but I expect an angel messenger someday will. The road to Heaven invites us to travel Did you see Sydney McLaughlin set a world record in the 400-metre hurdles? Or Armand Duplantis reach 6.21 meters in the pole vault final?How about Haruka Kitaguchi throw a javelin 66 metres to a bronze medal, making her the first Japanese woman to medal in a throwing event at this level of competition?Ifyoudid, you joined a large audience watching the 2022 World Track and Field championships held earlier this summer in Eugene, Ore. In some ways it proved more entertaining than last summer’s Olympics that unfortunately were held in largely empty arenas and venues. Fans were in the stands in Eugene, adding an energy and excitement that was truly missed last summer in Tokyo. The highlight for me had to be the final of the 4x100-metre men’s relay. On paper, the American team of sprinters was less than 40 seconds away from an assured gold medal. Runner for runner, no other nation could send four athletes to the track with such impressive individual splitButtimes.what might appear to be a done deal on paper can be overturned in real time, as the team from Canada was about to Fourdemonstrate.Canadian runners – Aaron Brown, Jerome Blake, Brendon Rodney and Andre De Grasse – were the ones chosen to carry the colours for the red and white in a race that most in the stadium were preparing to coronate the pre-race favourite. But 37.48 seconds after the starting gun went off, it was the Canadian team that crossed the line first, capturing the gold medal. The key to the win? The Canadian team had better transitions as the baton moved quickly from one runner to the next, and with a brilliant final leg by Andre De Grasse, they edged out the rest of the field. On paper, the favourites seemed to be a lock on the gold, but with the right team anything is possible. When each team member does exactly what they have worked hard to achieve, the results can be something far greater than some might imagine. When we take a look around we can see there are a lot of challenges and problems we are facing, as well as projects and opportunities that are presenting themselves. What might be too much for one individual is something the right team just might be able to achieve. It’s all about putting together the people who can bring the right combination of skill, adaptability and creativity to the venture. Last week I toured a basilica built by immigrants who began arriving in the Wisconsin area by the thousands in the late 1800s. The desire to build a place of worship to house its growing community led to the construction of what was in essence a smaller version of St. Peter’s in Rome. Ground was broken in 1896 and the church was completed in 1901. St. Josaphat Church in Milwaukee was named the third basilica in the United States, a status reserved for the largest, more beautiful, and most historically important Catholic churches. What might have seemed a task too large for a group of immigrants to undertake is exactly what they did. Yet that is the story of many, many places, including where I live today. Those that arrived in a new country certainly had enough to do in clearing land and constructing a home for their family, but they did so much more than that. Churches and schools were first on the priority list because they felt building for the community was such an important task. Huge undertakings were accomplished when people came together and formed an effective, hardworking team. Others may have had more money, better raw materials or more experience in achieving those goals. On paper they may have been the better bet, but never underestimate the spirit of the right team of people. The examples that came before us are plentiful and inspirational. With a lot on the line, it’s pretty remarkable what can be accomplished when a dedicated group of people come together. That knowledge can motivate each one of us to choose our venture, build our team and go out and get the job done. So find your team and choose your project. There will be many standing on the sidelines. Some will be shaking their heads or wagging their fingers saying it can’t be done. But shut it out. Because there will be many others excitedly waiting to celebrate with you as you cross the finish line. That’s my outlook.
CMCA AUDITED By Ken Rolheiser At 8:30 a.m., on the day of the big sale, a long line formed in front of the store. A small man pushed his way to the front of the line, only to be pushed back, amid loud and colourful curses. On the man’s second attempt, he was punched in the jaw, knocked around and thrown to the end of the line. “That does it!” he shouted. “If they hit me one more time, I’m not opening the store.”

By Paul Kimball A new maintenance shop for the RM of Moose Creek had been in the works for years. It was time to build. Council visited shops of other municipalities to get ideas and it was decided that a building of 30 1/2 metres by 61 metres would be more than su ffi cient for their needs, both now and in the future. In 2017, the ground was leveled, in 2018, the concrete pad was poured and the building shell erected. Throughout 2019, the inside work and fi nishing touches were done and towards the end of that year, everything was fi nished. Most of the work was done by local contractors. All that remained was for the RM and Town of Alameda to celebrate. But along came COVID-19 and the celebration plans were put on hold. Over two years later, on Aug. 9, the grand opening party fi nally took place. Hamburgers and hot dogs were the main course, cooked on a barbecue provided by Baker Hughes. Cupcakes were the dessert and beverages were kept cool in the bucket of a one-week-old tractor. Two bouncy castles were set up for children who were too young to appreciate the signi fi cance of the newThebuilding.newfacility is an upgrade for the RM. It replaces two much smaller shops that were located in the town. As a result, the heavy equipment no longer needs to travel the streets of Alameda.“It’salot nicer with lots of room to work,” said foreman Kirk Brooks. “The old shop was full when three graders were put in it, leaving no room to work. The new building’s wash bay is the same size as the whole previous main shop.” The novelty of the new shop hasn’t worn o ff for Brooks. He continues to take a lot of pride in it and keeps it spotless.Kelvin Luedtke is the reeve of the RM of Moose Creek. Like Brooks, he too was extremely proud of the fi nished project. “As council, we’re very proud of this building. It is extremely well done. It suits the purpose 100 per cent and should be here for a century to come. It is a true asset that all the ratepayers can be proud of.” Perhaps what he appreciated most was that none of the $2 million that was required for the building had to be borrowed. The municipality had all the money on hand. He expressed this fact as part of his short welcoming address to those who had come to celebrate.Thebuilding has been completed and so has the celebrating.

By Stephanie Zoer Kelli Fox loved the Artist Colony at Moose Mountain Provincial Park so much, she jumped at the chance to go there for a second week at the end of August.This is Fox’s first year at the colony, and she enjoyed the cheerful outlook of the people that came to visit and the amazing talent of all the artist’s that attend. Fox was born and raised in Ontario. She has four adult children who now live across Canada and the United States. Fox found her way to Regina and now calls this province home.Seven years ago, after retiring, Fox went on a vacation to Huntsville, Ont. A half day course was offered to do alcohol ink painting, so she decided to try the new form of art. She enjoyed it so much she has continued with it.
The alcohol ink art grew from there, although Fox does use di ff erent mediums in her pieces such as acrylic.Sheloves to use vibrant colours and that shows in her paintings. Fox has only been painting for seven years, but her art is stunning. She has them displayed at local restaurants and attends other shows. She was at the Summer Bash in Regina just recently.Fox paints everything from cows to furniture and parrots to landscapes, but also does portraits of people. It all depends on her mood that day and on which piece she might paint that day. Her talent does not stay with painting. She enjoys making beaded bracelets as well, again using an array of colours.While at the colony, Fox stays at Kenosee Lake in her R.V., along with her little dogs. They are used to travelling, not only for camping, but they also ride along on her motorcycle.Foxlooks forward to her time at the colony. She has a great deal of praise for the artists there, and genuinely enjoys the it,”andartince,”talentatmosphere.small-town“Wehavealotofinthisprov-saidFox.“Mymakesmehappy,IjustlovedoingsaidFox.

By Gord Paulley Local community leaders attended an informal meeting Aug. 11 to discuss the possibility of additional Ukrainian families moving to the area.Those in attendance included volunteers from the Carlyle District Lions Club, Carlyle branch of the Royal Canadian Legion and the Knights of Columbus. The mayors from the communities of Carlyle and Manor also participated, as did several Town of Carlyle and RM of Moose Mountain councillors.JudyValentine represented Sask. Housing, with Carlyle Food Bank chairperson Theresa Luedtke and realtor Tyler Matthewson also in attendance.Kisbeyresident Svitlana Makar, who moved from the Ukraine herself 12 years ago, was present, as was Carlyle’s first Ukrainian arrival, Serhii Boiko. Boiko, wife Yuliia, and their three children moved to Carlyle last week. They are going to be employed by the Pig Improvement Company (PIC) Atlas hog barn facility located 12 kilometres southeast of Carlyle.Also attending the meeting were four employees of PIC. Abdoul Teuw is the assistant project manager of the Carlyle Atlas facility and Angela Morrow is the office co-ordinator. Joe and Marney Jobin are employed at the PIC Apex facility at Mound City, S.D. Joe is the production general manager and Marney is technician program manager. In early July, PIC manned an information booth at the University of Regina with both Joe Jobin and Morrow in attendance. They were entering another job fair in Regina on Aug. 18 and are hopeful additional Ukrainians can be attracted to the area. The informal roundtable focused on openness, togetherness and co-operation in attracting additional immigrants to Carlyle and district. Joe Jobin was impressed with the community attendance, which was by invitation only.“PIC is excited to be part of such a generous community. In the short time we have been here, it is obvious that we made the right choice to build here. We are confident that any newcomers will feel welcome in Carlyle and surrounding area.”As they move to the area, the Observer will continue to provide regular updates on the Ukrainian arrivals. A story on the Boiko family will appear in an upcoming edition of the Observer.

The Stoughton Agricultural Society once had 60 active members and now only has 15. Hill was grateful to see more new members this year when they participated in most of the classes.Anne Milton and her two children, Nathan who is six years old and Laura who is just three, partook for the first time this year, and placed first in their class, while 11-year-old Lillian Duthie placed first in her class.

By Gord Paulley A sold sign has appeared on the Karen Olmstead residence located on Sixth Street West in Carlyle.Maintaining one of the best-kept yards in town, this long-time resident has decided to leave Carlyle and is moving to Cochrane, Alta., to be closer to family. Roy and Karen Olmstead moved from Stoughton to Carlyle in 1973. They purchased a property on the street and she has lived there ever since. Roy was hired on with the Town of Carlyle as town foreman and retired as superintendent of public works in September 2002 after 29 years of service. After his passing in 2014, the public works building on Eighth Street West was named in his honour. For more than 40 years, the Olmsteads prided themselves on their beautiful yard and garden, happily spending hours tending to it day after day. Karen reminisces about the good“Landscapingtimes. and gardening were our passion,” she said. “Roy and I have always enjoyed our yard and I have many fond memories. With my advancing age, my body just can’t take it anymore and it is time to moveRoyon.”and Karen were two of the founding members of Carlyle One Church in 1993. They have been strong supporters of the town and Karen will miss the community, her church and Michael’s Coffee Shop. “Carlyle has been a great place to live and a great place to raise our daughter. I will miss everything about it. The support this community and my friends gave me after Roy’s passing was nothing short of awesome!”Olmstead is retaining possession of her property until the middle of September. She invites anyone to stop in for a coffee and a backyard chat.Kerri Keith is the Olmstead’s only child. She and her husband Collin Keith live on an acreage west of Weyburn near McTaggart. Karen has three granddaughters, Kristen, age 24, Chelan, 21, and Rachel, 18. Kerri Keith has returned to school and is presently interning in Prince Albert, improving her skills as a family and marriage counsellor. Collin is an electrician employed by the South East Cornerstone School Division.

The Government of Saskatchewan currently provides employer-driven training funding through the CSJG and RSTS programs.The invasion of Ukraine by the Russian army has forced millions of Ukrainian people to flee their country in search of safety. More than 1,500 displaced Ukrainians have arrived in Saskatchewan since the conflict began, including those who arrived on the two humanitarian flights with Solidaire and Open Arms. As the situation in Ukraine continues to evolve, the Government of Saskatchewan will continue to look for opportunities to support the people impacted.
The Government of Saskatchewan has announced it will allow all temporary residents arriving under Canada-Ukraine Authorization for Emergency Travel (CUAET), with a valid work permit, to be eligible for Canada-Saskatchewan Job Grant (CSJG) and Re-Skill Saskatchewan Training Subsidy (RSTS) funded training.“Saskatchewan is committed to welcoming an unlimited number of displaced Ukrainians and ensuring they gain the language, skills and connections to successfully integrate into our communities and workforce,” Immigration and Career Training Minister Jeremy Harrison said. “Now more than ever, with Saskatchewan having some of the highest job growth in the country, we need workers and employer-driven training programs such as these to ensure provincial employers have a skilled workforce with the competencies required to keep building a strong Saskatchewan.”InMarch 2022, the Government of Canada created a special, accelerated temporary residence pathway for Ukrainians to live, work and study in Canada. The CUAET allows Ukrainians and their immediate family members of any nationality to apply for a Canadian visitor visa, granting them temporary residency for up to three years. In addition, individuals can also apply for an open work permit that allows them to work in Canada. These changes are accessible for those arriving from overseas or Ukrainians already residing in Canada. The program is not considered part of a refugee immigration stream.Saskatchewan employers experiencing job vacancies, skill shortages and a desire to offer employment in support of Ukrainians, may seek provincial training funding for work permit holders arriving under the federal CUAET program.

The Government of Saskatchewan has extended the Interim Provincial Education Plan for the 2022-23 school year. The interim plan was developed in 2021-22 to focus on what the government called supporting Saskatchewan students in response to the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. Work will continue on the long-term provincial education plan through this year with an implementation date of fall 2023.
“The Government of Saskatchewan is committed to supporting students and staff as we return to school this fall,” Education Minister Dustin Duncan said. “The interim plan will continue to emphasize the three key educational priorities for this school year as we work to finalize the full education plan for the next decade.”

Interim
By Gord Paulley Seventy-five golfers participated in a two-person best ball tournament at the Carlyle Golf Club on Aug.There11. were 11 men’s teams, eight women’s teams and 18 mixed teams. The tournament was considered non-competitive, and the winning teams received the same quality of prizes as those awarded to the lower flights. Every participant received a door prize with a minimum retail value of $25. Fifty of the golfers were non-members and travelled from as far away as Regina and Minot. Clubhouse manager Terri Field was extremely pleased with how the day went.“What a great tournament with full participation including a lot of out-of-town golfers,” said Field. “The event ran very smoothly and was greatly enjoyed by all. Thank you to the organizing committee and the many local businesses who generously donated prizes.” Jacky Lothian of White Bear Lake praised the course conditions. “As we golfed in today’s tournament, we had to ask ourselves why was this our first time this year. The course is in amazing shape and today’s tournament was great fun. We shared laughs with many people from the surrounding areas and it was evident that organizers went above and beyond in ensuring everything ran smoothly.”“Thisannual tournament is a great way to have a fun day golfing,” said Ed Plumb of Kenosee Lake. “With the best ball format there is little pressure for a high handicap golfer like me having to make every shot count. I can just enjoy golfing 18 holes with others, and everyone went home with a prize.” Linda Vandesype lives in Pilot Butte and she and her husband Jerome brought down a few friends.“Wehad an absolutely great time. The food was wonderful and there was an awesome selection of prizes for all. The hospitality in your town can’t be beat. We’re looking forward to coming again next year.”
The Interim Provincial Education Plan will focus on three key priorities: Mental health and well-being supports for students and staff: The focus will be on supporting students and teachers in their mental health and well-being through the creation and refinement of mental health and well-being plans for each school system. The school-level plans will address concerns and build upon best practices related to mental health and well-being.Thiswork will be supported by enhanced communication among school systems and government ministries to share knowledge of available supports, services and programming.

R.M. of Moose Creek is keeping busy this summer
By Paul Kimball The RM of Moose Creek has been busy cleaning up their to-do list.Along with their new maintenance shop, they have finished the McCauley Crossing. It took 11 years to Previously,complete.itwas a low-level crossing. With the yearly melting of snow, it was generally flooded and impassable until June or July. The spring runoff took its toll, causing serious erosion. Eleven years ago, a truck fell through it. It was hoped to replace the crossing quickly, but red tape and poor weather forecasts put the plans on hold year after year. Six or seven attempts to start failed. A dry year was required and forecasts indicated that 2022 would be a favourable year. The construction began in January and by the end of May, it was completed. Councillor Jeff Humphries was the first to officially drive over it and make sure that all was well. He was very pleased with his test drive.“It’s 8 1/2 metres wide and sturdy enough to handle the heaviest of equipment. It was needed for farmers, fishermen and commercial drivers. It saves a detour of 12 kilometres,” Humphries said.It was designed by engineers. It runs north and south and crosses a river that runs west to east. On the west side, a drainage ditch that Humphries calls a “bathtub” collects the seasonal flood water and takes it to the south, where the road has a dip. The water crosses the road at that dip and returns to the river on the east side of the crossing, preventing any water from eroding the underside of the crossing. As a result, it should last for years to come. Now it’s time to consider another project to knock off the list of things to do. Councillor Reed Gibson has got the ball rolling on a section of Range Road 2020, giving the old dirt road a solid base so that it comes up to heavy haul standards. That should be completed later this fall.
The McCauley Crossing is now much better than it used to be. Photo submitted by the RM of Moose Creek

John (Jack) William Aulie February 28, 1931 - August 8, 2022 It is with heavy hearts that we say goodbye to John (Jack) William Aulie. He passed away peacefully surrounded by family on August 8, 2022. Jack was born February 28, 1931 on the family farm near Ryerson, where he grew up with his seven sisters. At the young age of 17, after the sudden loss of his father, Jack found himself the caregiver and provider for his mom and sisters, and he became a full-time farmer. However, Jack was also a tremendous athlete, and was often sought after to pitch for many of the local baseball teams. Jack married Becky Brady on June 28, 1958 and together they had six children: Diana, Bill, Bob, Perry, Kelly and Murray. They raised their family on the homestead, providing a wholesome, family-focused upbringing, instilling values in each of them which have been passed through the generations. In 1991, Becky passed away from cancer leaving a tremendous hole in the hearts of the family. However, when Jack met Helen Abday at a local dance, he got his spring back in his step, and they later wed in 1994. They lived happily together, first on the homestead, and then just down the road in Ryerson, until Jack moved to the Deer View Lodge in Wawota in 2015. Jack took great pride in his garden throughout his ‘retirement.’ He and Helen were known for their red-ribbon produce at the Maryfield Fair. Despite having formally completed only his grade 10 education, Jack was one of the most ingenious and innovative men! Combined with his relentless work ethic, there wasn’t anything he couldn’t fix or build, and there was no person who wasn’t worthy of his helping hand. His strong faith served as his compass through his life and guided him in becoming a loving husband, a wonderful father and a proudJackgrandfather.willberemembered for his unique approach to keeping his children, grandchildren, nieces and nephews in order, his love for ice cream and his famous foot massages. In Jack;s own words, “I enjoyed helping people and fixing things.” This will be Jack’s legacy passed on to each of his children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren, by whom he will be dearly missed.Jack was predeceased by his wife, Becky, sisters Marion, Stella, Jean and Annie, son Kelly, daughter-in-law, Karen, great-grandsons Benjamin and Asher as well as numerous brothers- and sisters-in law. Jack leaves behind his wife Helen, children Diana (Greg), Bill (Karen dec.), Bob (Tracy), Perry (Daniela) and Murray (Heather), daughters-in-law Lisa and Nancy, as well as 16 grandchildren and 13 great-grandchildren, and Helen’s children Lillian (Ken), Barry (Tanis). The family would like to thank the caring and compassionate staff at Deer View Lodge for the exceptional care of Jack during the past seven years. 14-1 Art Show & Sale: Will take place at the Rec Centre (by mini-golf) Kenosee Lake, Moose Mountain Provincial Park, on Wednesday, August 31 from 4:00pm to 7:00pm 14-2 BINGO: Kenosee Lake Four Seasons Drop In Centre Every Tuesday of the Month Next Bingo is on Tuesday, August 16 at 7pm Blackout Jackpot is $300 & Lucky 7 is $441 & Loonie Pot is $367.00 Roy Farms - Moosomin, SK.

The transition moves from the emergency focus toward long-term flood mitigation projects. Applications from municipalities will be accepted until Sept. 15. “The Government of Saskatchewan is committed to safeguarding our communities by providing high-risk communities funding to protect infrastructure from future flooding,” Cockrill said. “These measures help address emergencies before they arise, saving communities money and additional stress during an emergency.”Lastyear, for example, the Village of Lebret received $31,950 in funding support from the FDRP to undertake the engineering required to initiate flood protection works for the municipality.WSAisinvesting up to $500,000 in EFDRP and FDRP for 2022-23. The agency will accept FDRP proposals in four streams from communities both urban (cities, towns and villages) and in rural municipalities and hamlets as follows: • Hydrologic and/or hydraulic investigations to develop risk assessments;•Flood mapping projects;• Mitigation planning, where municipalities develop emergency flood response plans or potential flood damage prevention construction designs; and • Structural projects, where the municipality acts as the proponent for construction of permanent flood protection works.The FDRP will cover eligible costs incurred up to March 31, 2023. A list of eligible costs can be found online. Once a municipality applies to the program, the proponent must have prior WSA approval and must secure any applicable regulatory requirements to undertake work. Eligible projects will be cost-shared on a 50/50 basis between WSA and the proponent.
