Carlyle RV & Leisure was one of the drop-off points for local donations in aid of Fort McMurray. Ryan Benjamin of Jewel Energy transported relief supplies to Alberta to aid citizens of Fort Mac, who were displaced by massive wildfires. Although the drive for donations was pulled together in a very short period of time, local businesses, groups, and individuals responded generously. bottles of water, diapers, toiletries, pet food, clothing-really, anything people would need,” adds Schultz. “The Dickens committee contributed a bunch of clothing that was all cleaned, sorted and ready to go. Our customers heard about it and some gave us cash and said, ‘Here, buy anything you need.’ So we took the cash over to The Bargain Shop and bought towels and kids’ underwear.” Derrick Edwards, Branch Manager of Southern Plains Co-op witnessed the same thing in his store. “When we were approached and asked if we could round up stuﬀ to send and to be a drop-oﬀ point, we were happy to do it. Our customers made cash donations and most just told us to purchase what

was needed most. Our staﬀ donated the funds from their can deposits and I think everyone just wishes the people of Fort McMurray all the best. It’s hard to imagine being in that situation and really, we were more than happy to help out. Anything we can do, we’re happy to do.” Martin Tourand of Ron’s The Work Wear Store in Carlyle agrees and says of his contribution of cases of socks: “It’s a terrible situation and we’re just doing what we hope anyone would do for someone in this situation. We thought about what might really be needed, and I know everyone else did, too.”

On Wednesday, May 4, Carlyle’s Steve Schultz received a phone call from Ryan Benjamin of Jewel Energy, who was trying to gather relief supplies to aid the displaced citizens of firestricken Fort McMurray, Alberta. “Ryan was going to gather a load to take up to the company’s head office in Red Deer,” says Schultz. “From there, they’d get the supplies to wherever they were needed.” “I put something out on Facebook and sent some emails. We weren’t able to reach everybody in such a short time, but really, the response was overwhelming.” “Ryan asked me if local businesses could contribute,” says Schultz, who is president of the Carlyle Chamber of Commerce. “We had a tight timeline, but our community really stepped up to the plate, and by early Sunday morning, we had enough stuff to fill a 28-foot cargo trailer, ready to go.” “There are just so many businesses and people to thank,” says Schultz. “But logistically, Carlyle RV & Leisure and Southern Plains Co-op in Carlyle stepped in as drop-off points and that was a huge help.” “Our big back room here in the (Pharmasave) store was full in a very short timewith things like diapers, water, canned food, baby food, pet food, toothbrushes, toiletries and so much more.” “We sent thousands of

Ron Mitchell of Carlyle RV & Leisure says that the drop-off point at his business was inundated with people eager to assist the people of Fort MacMurray. “Ryan Benjamin came out and told us he was taking a trailer-load of donations to Alberta on Sunday,” says Mitchell. “We had our Mother’s Day Sale on the weekend, so we pulled up a covered trailer and hosted the drop-off in conjunction with our sale.” “We had some people bringing tubs and tubs of clothing, shampoo, water... everything.When you see the news, it’s devastating,” adds Mitchell. “It makes you feel good to help out in any way you can. And I’d like to ask that if anybody is taking another load out to Alberta-to get in touch with us, if we can help.” Both Carlyle’s New Dimensions Hair Studio and Salon 206 were early responders to the call for contributions to aid Fort McMurray. Donna Brown of New Dimensions says, “It was Alicia’s (Brown’s) idea. We did a fundraiser on Thursday and Friday. We donated five dollars for every client booked in those two days and five dollars for every gift certificate sold for Mother’s Day.” “Also, a lot of our great customers and clientele matched us,” says Brown, adding, “Disasters are awful, but it brings out a lot of good in people by helping others.” Amy Geiger and her Salon 206 staff were similarly touched by the situation in Fort McMurray. “As I was looking on Facebook on Wednesday morning and saw all of the pictures of the danger and devastation, my heart went out to all of the people who were losing almost everything but their lives to the fires.” “I wanted to help in some way and I figured with Mother’s Day coming up and knowing that people would be shopping for Mom, I could donate part of our sales to helping the people of Fort Mac,” says Geiger. “ I know people would do the same for us. That’s the best part of living in this giving country. Everyone helps everyone. We raised $250 and we’d like to thank everyone who contributed.” Betty Jack of The Bargain Shop! In Carlyle agrees. “We have sold a pile of stuff. People were coming in and buying water, toothpaste, underwear, you name it-all to donate. Every once in a while, I’d just have to step back and have a wee cry. It just warmed my heart. It made me proud to be a Canadian.” “It was a real community response,” says Schultz. “And I’m really proud of our small town and what we were able to pull together in a very short time.”

Directions • If you use wood skewers, soak them in cold water first to avoid burning on the grill. Turn on grill to medium heat. Thread each skewer with your favorite fruits. Warm some honey in the microwave so its nice and warm and runny. Baste each kabob lightly with honey then sprinkle with coconut flakes. Grill until the fruit gets some nice grill marks on each side. Remove to a serving plate (optional: drizzle with a little coconut white balsamic).

Walk for lupus Kelly Running Observer Staff

The Bear Claw Casino and Hotel recently organized a local Walk for Lupus, which was held on Tuesday, May 10. Focused on raising funds for support services and research, the walk was also meant to bring lupus awareness to the community. Despite the cold and rain, the group of 11 who walked a total of 7.5 km on May 10 and raised $1,000 to be donated to Lupus SK Society. Patti Sweet, one of the organizers, explained, “Everyone walked for different personal reasons, but the main reason [The Bear Claw Casino] held the walk was because of Edward Littlechief, he was our General Manager here and has had to step back from duties

Lupus is defined as a chronic inflammatory disease that occurs when your body’s immune system actually attacks your own tissues and organs. There is currently no cure for lupus, which someone is either born with a genetic disposition for it or it can be triggered by infections, certain drugs, or even sunlight, but treatments are available to help control symptoms.

Oftentimes people with lupus experience “ﬂares” which is characterized by signs and symptoms worsening,

then subsiding or even disappearing for a time. Signs and symptoms are said to depend on which body system is affected. Many signs are not unique to lupus which include fatigue, fever, joint pain, stiff-

ness, swelling, shortness of breath, chest pain, dry eyes, and headaches. However, a butterﬂy shaped rash covering the cheeks and bridge of the nose often accompanies lupus, although not always.

The Art of Antiques: Arcola’s Jim Paton

Lynne Bell

Observer Staff

For two decades, Jim Paton has amassed a treasure trove in his store, ‘1900s Arcola Antiques & Collectibles,’ located on the town’s Main Street. Paton-who worked in airport communications for the federal governmentstarted the business as both a retirement project and as a labour of love. Since then, his stock has grown to fill four buildings in Arcola, as well as a storage unit. “The public all want something different,” he says. “And there’s a buyer out there for everything.” “I worked in airport communications for the federal government. Most of my career was in Winnipeg, Swift Current and the North Pole-that triangle. I had a very early retirement and my wife (Carol) said that I wasn’t going to hang around the house,” he says, smiling. “I’ve been interested in this stuff since day one, so when I retired, that’s when I really got things going.” “Born and raised” in Gravelbourg, Paton says: “My first piece was given to me by a babysitter when I was four- or five-years-old. She gave me a case her husband carried all over Europe when he served in the Second World War. I still have it, but I’m going to see if her grandchildren want it.” “Throughout my career, my wife and I moved a lot and especially when we moved up north, we didn’t have a lot of excess stuff. But I started seriously collecting in Winnipeg in 1980. I was more or less thinking of starting a private museum, but once I started collecting, I found I had too many duplicates and too much stuff.” “So when we moved to Arcola in 1995, I opened this place up,” he says. “This is a hobby. I’m usually always nearby if the door’s not open, so I encourage people to call me and I’ll open up for them. I’ll buy, sell or trade.” Paton’s store is made of up a series of themed rooms-the kitchen room, the workshop and others-with objects that date from the 1800s onward. “You never know what I might have in here,” he says. “I was at an auction once and a lady said to me; ‘You’ll buy anything-from earrings to horseshoes.’ And I guess that’s true.”

And he walked away with a bunch of railroad memorobilia that I had.” “Many people that stop by often stay for three or four hours,” he adds. “And I’d advise collectors to buy what you like and buy the best you can (afford). Most collectors probably end up with six of somethingespecially when they ﬁrst start-but one or two items in pristine condition are better than six that aren’t.” “But I know how that goes, because I’ve done it myself,” says Paton. “I’ve gone through phases with

come in as they learn from me,” says Paton. “I don’t make any money at this, but it pays its own way and that’s good enough for me.” “Every day for me is a good day,” says Paton. “I enjoy being around the stuff (in the store) whether it sells or not. I enjoy talking to people and I’ll gladly visit with anybody whether they buy anything or not.” “I have absolutely no regrets.” To contact Jim Paton, call (306)-577-3358. 1900s Arcola Antiques & Collectibles is open from 8 a.m. until 9 p.m. most days and is located on Main Street, Arcola.

“These lamps are probably the most expensive things I have in the store right now,” says Arcola antique dealer, Jim Paton. “But I have something in every price range, starting from about $5 up... This is a hobby. I won’t post hours, but I am here from 8 a.m. until 9 p.m. And as my card says, you can always come in ‘By chance or appointment.’ I’m usually always nearby if the door’s not open, so I encourage people to call me at 306-577-3358 and I’ll open up for them.” (Staff photo by Lynne Bell) “If you’re looking for something in particular, I’ll do my best to help someone find it. One guy was looking for a Mah Jong set-the Chinese tile game-and he wanted an old one. I got one made of ivory and bamboo and we agreed on a price. He was surprised at the price I asked, thinking it might be low. But as long as I get more than I pay for something, then I’m happy.” “It was a fair deal and that’s fine with me.” On addition to auctions, Paton attends sales and flea markets-and two of his favourites are in Manitoba. “There’s a flea market in May in Wawanesa, Manitoba and a huge one in Boissevain, in August. And there are also garage sales-they’re the cheapest,” laughs Paton. “I’ve had some customers surprised at the amount of stuff here when they stumble across me,” says Paton. “I had one customer who was working temporarily in Estevan for the railroad and his hotel

collecting. Because of my career in communications, I collected old radios for a while-basically, anything that would make a sound.” “Now, I personally like collecting First Nations stuff.” With everything from oxen shoes to ornate antique lamps (“probably the most expensive items in the store right now”), in stock, Paton possesses an encyclopedic knowledge of the vast array of items he has displayed and stored. Much of his expertise was garnered before the Google era and he says,“The old Eaton’s catalogues are still a great resource for identifying and pricing things.” “Pinterest has been good for me,” he adds. “A lot of the ladies come in for stuff for their projects... But you can’t be knowledgeable about everything; it’s just not possible.” “I can often learn as much from people who

Celebrating 30 years Kelly Running Observer Staff

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been 30 years of customer service and providing new and used vehicles to Carlyle and surrounding communities at Carlyle Motor Products. They have recently celebrated 30 years in business with a beef lunch held on Friday, May 13, where an abundance of people came to support the accomplishment of CMP. Proud to have such a business in town they were there to show their support and to congratulate the team on their achievement, while also there to see the finished expansion which was recently completed. The company began in 1986 and has grown with the community, at the intersection of Hwy 9 and 13, their location was once an area which once saw bare fields surrounding the business and now sees over 125 companies within the community. Over the years CMP has gone through four expan-

sions, the most recent one, added approximately 5,300 sq. ft. to their existing facility. These expansions have been to aid in the increased demand for service, parts, and sales, which continues to develop. The expansion includes eleven more service bays, totalling 19 in all, a larger parts/services area, and a new customer lounge; the expansion was geared towards improving the customersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; experience at CMP. Keeping with the times, providing reliable vehicles, and offering great customer service is what the business was built on and continues to thrive on. The Dealer Principal, Garnet Goud, and staff are appreciative of the support of the community as without the continued commitment of the community to CMP their 30 year accomplishment would not have been possible. The turnout on

The new expansion, which was only recently completed, was open to view during the lunch at CMP in celebration of their 30th anniversary. May 13 for the beef lunch reinforced this commitment of community to CMP and of CMP to the community, with hundreds of people arriving to show their support and congratulate those involved with the company on their 30 years in business.

Census an important part of the puzzle

Governing a country I feel like is a great puzzle… one where knowing how many pieces you have and figuring out how they fit together is essential. What’s the easiest way for those we’ve elected to represent us to figure this out? It could very well be the census. The other day I felt like an Kelly Running adult… and I guess I should, afObserver Staff ter all I’m nearing 30 every year, but I just finished my very first Canadian census. I had one which was pretty quick and painless, but I hear there are others out there that are a little longer. I’m glad they gave me the shortened version though as it eased me into it. I remember my parents filling it out when I was younger, and it was always quite the task as they were farmers, so that immediately means a few extra questions even on the shortened version as I have come to understand. However, as I sat kind of excited to do my first census (yes, I’m a little weird, but I accept that) I discovered that, as with anything the government does, there were grumblings by people unhappy that the mandatory census was back. The Conservatives had changed it into a voluntary “national household survey,” but voluntary means people don’t have to actually do it and the data would be skewed like any survey. At least making it mandatory would have the majority of people participate in it. I’ve decided people just like to grumble though because when the Conservatives axed the census people grumbled and now as it comes back, people again grumble. Whether it’s a political party they voted for and they’re wondering what the party is doing or they simply hate whoever is in power, people always seem to find something to find issue with. Which to be honest, I don’t really understand because in Canada there is very little difference between the various political parties in my opinion. One poster I saw stated, “You count, so be counted! Did you know? The building of new streets, bridges, and cycling lanes is informed by census data.” The census, I think, is an important tool for the government to use. According to Stats Canada the census is important because “The census collects demographic information on every man, woman, and child living in Canada. Information from the census will be used by governments, businesses, associations, community organizations and many others to make important decisions for your community, your province or territory, and the entire country.” “Census information is important for your community and is used in planning services such as schools, public transportation, senior housing, and police and fire services. Population estimates obtained from the census are used to allocate transfer payments from the federal government to the provinces and territories, and from the provinces to municipalities.” Ultimately, for the government to know where to put money they need to know where the majority of the population is. It also becomes historical record for future generations allowing them information on how people were living and gives a sense of who is in the nation based on languages spoken. While looking into the census, did you know that the very first one used in what was to become Canada was done by Jean Talon in 1666 in order to record the French colony’s 3,215 inhabitants’ age, sex, marital status, and occupation? This was done to help plan and develop New France. Just how today’s census helps the Government of Canada plan and develop the nation.

Quote of the Week . . . Spaghetti can be eaten most successfully if you inhale it like a vacuum cleaner. - Sophia Loren

Don’t let it go . . . Let it out In the days that followed the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 there was a lot of discussion about when it would be appropriate for the late night comedians to go back on the air or cartoonists in daily newspapers to resume their satirical drawings. Humour seemed out of place amidst such shock and grief, yet there was a sense that people needed to laugh again Shelley Luedtke soon and find some impetus to smile and feel joy, if only briefly. Funny stories have been circulating describing what some Fort McMurray evacuees took with them in their haste to leave their homes: the woman who took no socks but packed her hot glue gun; the mom who thought she’d packed the air mattress only to discover it was a box of children’s books; the couple who grabbed their laptop charger--but not their laptop; or the man who forgot underwear but grabbed a pie plate. Evacuees have said the chance to laugh at themselves while coping with such stressful days has been healing. There are times when laughter is seen as inappropriate or out of place, yet whether it’s out of nervousness or overwhelming emotion, a giggle easily surfaces and is sometimes hard to contain at the most heightened moments. It may be interpreted as disrespectful, uncaring, or even outright rude, yet laughter has the potential to do the very things crying can do. Studies have found crying is a natural way to alleviate stress, lower blood pressure, and remove toxins from the body. Laughter, meanwhile, relaxes our body, boosts our immune system and triggers the release of endorphins. Crying protects the brain from damage caused by unchecked stress. Laughter protects the heart by improving blood flow. Crying impacts the body’s manganese level, a mineral which affects our mood. Laughing can diminish our sensation of pain, allowing a brief Kelly Running Editor Reporter/Photographer

respite from illness or injury. Clearly it’s as important to laugh as it is to cry; and as beneficial to cry as it is to laugh. In my first year of university my father died suddenly just days before Christmas. I was grateful for the presence of several friends who came to see me and help in whatever way they could, but one of those people did something rather unusual. She was a high school friend who started telling stories about some of the funny things we had experienced together. We started laughing--and laughed for a long time. It wasn’t about trying to deny the grief I was feeling, or being uncaring, it was just about sitting with me and feeling something different and allowing laughter to pour over our broken hearts for a short time. We’re often told the best thing to do in a tough situation is ‘let it go’. (Apologies if you now can’t get Idina Menzel’s voice out of your head.) It’s the thought that we’re better off to brush aside the hurtful stuff, get back up on our feet and move on. But to do so misses an important step--the one in the middle--the step where we need to fully sense what we are experiencing and allow the pain and the hurt to happen, and then the healing to begin. Laughing and crying may appear to sit on opposite ends of the emotional spectrum but they are not opposite emotions. They are expressions of the human experience that encompasses joy, anxiety, nervousness, sadness, fear or contentment. One person’s tears may equal another’s jovial laugh. One individual’s laughter shouldn’t be interpreted as disrespectful any more than another’s tears should be seen as weakness. We all express emotions in a manner that is particularly unique to us, but the point is we need to release those emotions. The physical and mental benefits are huge, but more importantly it allows others to join in and share the experience with you. Because the only thing worse than shutting down the emotion would be shutting out the people who want to cry and laugh right along with you. That’s my outlook.

Seeing things differently . . .

What is “humane?” It was a topic in and out of the news in Prairie Provinces… “humane” beef and the restaurants that sell it. This particular topic, although everything gets blown up on social media these days, seemed to be everywhere. I grew up in southwest Saskatchewan and although we Kelly Running didn’t have cattle, the majorObserver Staff ity of our neighbours did. We would go and help at brandings, listened to the stories of them checking cattle in the spring and pulling calves, bringing them in the house if it was freezing out to warm them, and ultimately caring for their animals. One person in my newsfeed posted this: “I know how the meat we eat is raised, I know the sacrifice and commitment it takes. Feeding any animal is a lot of work and must be done multiple times of the day. I know that feeding cattle will mean making sacrifices. You give up weekend camping trips, you stay up all night baling hay for the animals you feed, as a young child you grow up knowing your mom or dad might not make every sports game to watch you or fishing trip. Your weekend plans change in a matter of seconds [because] of the weather changes…” “The point is ranchers give up many plans to feed the world and produce meat for the people who can’t, so maybe the people who can’t should learn what it takes. I know for one I’ve [given] up camping trips, weddings, etc… to move cows or feed them. I wouldn’t trade it for the world either, growing up with it… At the end of the day if people are going to be critics about the food they eat, spend a month watching how the food is actually brought up, not what is falsely advertised.” Another friend wrote: “It’s frustrating when people don’t understand the livelihood of farmers and ranchers. The amount of blood, sweat, tears and pride put into their production. Growing up ranching and living with a rancher I cannot count the amount of sleepless nights, social events missed, appointments missed, school missed, and sports games missed. Feeding and checking through all inclement weather thrown at us, whether we ourselves were sick or healthy. If putting our lives on hold, facing all types of weather in all degrees of health isn’t humane I don’t know what the [heck] they want from us.” Ultimately, the idea of “humane” beef was a marketing tactic. It appeals to people who live in urban centres, away from production. It’s the people who, when they were kids, went to a grocery store and thought meat simply came from there, which had no idea where it actually came from. The problem is people who are misinformed, absolutely no meat in Canada has antibiotics in it when it is slaughtered, there are mandatory time periods one has to wait before their cattle can be sent to be slaughtered. Additionally, antibiotics are used to treat sickness. How is it humane to let an animal suffer instead of treating it? If your child needed antibiotics because they were sick would you not take them to the doctor and ensure they became healthy, that they weren’t suffering? So, how is letting an animal suffer by not giving them their antibiotics humane? The label is simply a marketing ploy, which the Prairie Provinces weren’t about to fall for.

Editor’s Note . . . The views expressed in “Seeing things differently” are for discussion purposes and are not necessarily the views of the writers.

A beef with Earls Recently, Canadian restaurant chain Earls invoked a social media storm as it announced the company would be sourcing beef for its eateries from the U.S.-and shortly after, Earls reversed its decision after Canadian consumers called for a boycott of its restaurants. In a news release, Earls Lynne Bell president Mo Jessa said of the Observer Staff company’s turnaround: “We made a mistake when we moved away from Canadian beef. We want to make this right. We want Canadian beef back on our menus so we are going to work with local ranchers to build our supply of Alberta beef that meets our criteria.” Earls also released a video featuring Jessa, who stated the restaurant chain would get Canadian beef back on its menu “quickly.” The Earls backlash began when the company announced that it would be buying beef from American suppliers because of customer demand for beef that was free of antibiotics and steroids and raised humanely. The “Certiﬁed Humane” marketing program veriﬁes beef raised and slaughtered according to criteria set by animal welfare proponent, Temple Grandin. This allowed Earls to meet its need for a consistent supply of beef that met these standards, as currently-according to the eatery-there are few Canadian suppliers that are able to do so. Rob McNabb of the Canadian Cattlemen’s Association says that this country isn’t lagging be-

Through the Lens

hind the U.S. when it comes to meeting consumer demand for new products-nor does he think that Canadian producers are producing an inferior, unhealthy or inhumanely-raised product. However, he stated that Canada lacks an effective certification system and says that this country’s smaller cattle industry hasn’t got the message out to the public about Canada’s quality beef products. If Earls makes good on its promise to assist Canadian beef producers with “building a supply of Alberta beef that meets our criteria,” the restaurant chain will create a win-win situation that will have a long-term, positive effect on the beef industry in Canada. Earls initial announcement re: sourcing Certified Humane Beef was in response to customer demand. The company needed a consistent and considerable amount of beef for its restaurants that met the standards diners were demanding. By assisting with setting up certification and supply in Canada-probably, mostly in Alberta- Earls is helping producers, making their own customers happy and of course, improving its bottom line. Acknowledging Earls’ misstep, company president Jessa said: We started in Edmonton and we have many operations and employees here. Alberta has supported us. We need to support Alberta, especially in tough times. We moved to a U.S. supplier as we thought they could supply all of our needs. It was a mistake not to include Canadian beef.” Earls forgot their customer’s patriotism at their peril. But if they do this right, they’ll ensure customer loyalty-from Canadian consumers and producers alike.

Southeast Super Nova’s highway cleanup

Photos submitted

On Sunday, May 15 , the Southeast Super Nova’s took on the job of cleaning the ditches along the Red Coat trail as it passes through Carlyle. The Super Nova’s are a team of 14 and under girls from Carlyle, Alameda, Alida and Frobisher who will be represent these areas at the U14 Girls Fastball Provincials in Regina in July. The highway cleanup was a fundraiser for the ball club. The town of Carlyle was looking to have the ditches cleaned up before the May long weekend, and the Carlyle and Area Chamber of Commerce offered up a financial award for getting it done. These ambitious girls took on the job and the Super Nova’s will be putting any funds they raise towards tournament entry fees and keeping costs down for their parents as they work towards their goal of winning provincials and hopefully representing Saskatchewan at Westerns later in the summer. th

series. Maybe this is the year of the Loveable Loser in sports. The Cubs, mired in a 108-year World Series drought, are making championship noises in baseball and when this year’s Stanley Cup ﬁnal begins, the Western Conference rep will go into the best-of-seven series with a grand total of zero Cups in their histories. It may still be zero when the Cup is presented in mid-June, but at the very least, the survivor of the Sharks/ Blues series will have made history. The Sharks, since they were born in 1991, have won six division titles, but have never

made the Stanley Cup final. The Blues had the misfortune all these years of being conference rivals of Detroit and Chicago, two NHL powers. Perennial underachievers, the Sharks have become a poster child for playoff failure. Since 2005-06, they have suffered first-round elimination three times; secondround elimination four times; and lost twice in the Western Conference finals. Last year, in the final year of a 10-year stretch, the Sharks missed the playoffs, and it cost coach Todd McLellan his job. McLellan took his playoff-missing talents to Edmonton, while Peter

Deboer replaced him in San Jose and through two rounds of the playoﬀs, things are looking … well, not to jinx them, but this could be the year. For Joe Thornton and Patrick Marleau, who both broke into the NHL in 1997-98, winning a Cup would be sweet and would give their careers some completion. They always seem to be playing in the world championships in Europe instead of battling for the Stanley Cup in late May and early June. St. Louis might have something to say about that. So might Pittsburgh and Tampa Bay, the Eastern Conference ﬁnalists. But if the Sharks are ever going to show their teeth, this year might be their best shot. • Annie Apple, mother of New York Giants draft pick, cornerback Eli Apple, on a predraft event organized by the NFL. “There was a wonderful welcome reception for the family, though whomever planned the event forgot to include desserts.

20th Anniversary Alameda Fishing Derby Submitted It is coming! Fish ‘til you drop, mark your calendars! The Alameda community rink’s annual fishing derby is on Saturday, June 25th at the Alameda Dam. This key fundraising event has become one of the biggest fishing derbies in our province. Northern pike is the only species that can be weighed; it is a catch and release day. Last year there were 392 entrants. Geared as a family event the youth division has grown steadily. A youth is classified as someone 12-years or younger on the day of the derby. Each receives a pick-aprize. The derby committee favours this format as each youth is allowed to pick what they prefer instead of being assigned a prize. There are six monetary prizes awarded in the youth division. Last year’s youth winner, Drayden Arndt brought in a Northern Pike weighing 6.62 lbs. The adult division last year had 336 entries vying for part of the $5,000 in prize money and one of over 200

door prizes. Last year’s winner was Keegan Wahl with a fish weighing 14.72 lbs. President of the derby committee Darryl Davis is our official weigh master. He will be using a legally balanced computerized scale. A flagged weigh station on the dock will be marked to help direct boat traffic and speed up this important aspect of the derby. With many of the anglers having cell phones out on the water while fishing, numbers of fish being weighed has declined somewhat as the fisherman often know the weight that a fish must be to qualify for prize money. Derby day starts early with some fisherman launching their boats before 6 a.m. and then enjoying the pancake breakfast on site prepared by Jen McNabb and her capable crew. Officially angling starts at 8 a.m. and no fish are weighed after 4 p.m. Fishing is allowed from shore or boat on water north of the dam. If you are not an early riser bring the family

out for an afternoon of fun and relaxation. After 4 p.m. the day continues at the Alameda rink with the opportunity to “enjoy a cool one,” have supper, and the awarding of the prizes. All entry fees include a scrumptious BBQ beef supper prepared by the Oxbow Lions Club and served by the Alameda Figure Skating Club. A large Chinese auction is always in place and this year in honour of the 20th anniversary there will be a special hat auction and a raffle package. The derby committee tries hard to ensure fishermen will have assistance when both launching and coming in off the water and are always looking for volunteers. This year all early bird entrants paid by June 13th will have a chance to win a Bose Wave music system donated by Magnascope and the youth have a chance to win one of two bikes sponsored by Souris Moose Creek Wildlife Federation. Reserve your ticket early for a fun filled community event that supports the Alameda Rink. Tickets are now available at Alameda Agencies, Moose Creek Golf Club, house on The Crazy Canuck at the junction of Hwys 9 and 18. For general information contact Darin at 306-485-7493.

bserved At Relief for Fort Mac Photos courtesy of Ryan Benjamin

After dropping off donations at the Boyle, Alberta relief centre, Carlyle’s Ryan Benjamin was part of a second drop-off at Fort McMurray. Benjamin texted: “Here is the barricade south of Fort Mac. Nobody is permitted past unless you have written authorization. We unloaded supplies there and they’ll be picked up by someone on the inside.” Jewel Energy’s Ryan Benjamin snapped this photo of what he calls “A little message of support” on the back of a supply trailer enroute to a relief station at Boyle, Alberta. The community of Boyle has 915 residents and will host up to 3,000 of their Fort McMurray neighbours.

Some donations for the people of Fort McMurray from Carlyle and area ended up at this relief depot at the Boyle, Alberta community centre. This centre is one of many which will serve as a temporary home for those displaced by the massive fire that engulfed the community of Fort McMurray. Boyle is home to 915 residents and the community will host up to 3,000 residents of Fort MacMurray.

Although volunteers in the town of Boyle, Alberta (Population: 915) are working around the clock to welcome 3,000 evacuees fron fire-stricken Fort McMurray, Ryan Benjamin of Carlyle says of this photo: “As you can see, spirits at the Boyle evacuation centre are very high.”

Ryan Benjamin was touched when he encountered this young donor in Red Deer- who insisted on making an individual contribution to benefit the displaced citizens of Fort McMurray. “Meet Madison Voilet, a young girl from Red Deer. Her family dropped off some groceries at the collection point at our shop today. She came in and told me that she would like to make a donation on her own. She donated three new pink pencils, her favourite pink eraser and all of her $11 allowance. She said she wanted to help out all she could.”

Volunteers in the small town of Boyle, Alberta prepare to welcome fire evacuees from Fort McMurray. The Boyle Community Centre was the final destination for some donations from businesses and individuals from Carlyle. “We’re thinking of them,” says Martin Tourand of Carlyle. “It’s a terrible situation and we’re just doing what we hope anyone would do for someone in this situation.”

On Wednesday, May 4, Carlyle Chamber of Commerce president, Steve Schultz received a phone call from Jewel Energy’s Ryan Benjamin, who was trying to gather a truckload of relief supplies for the displaced citizens of Fort McMurray, Alberta. “He asked me if local businesses could contribute,” says Schultz. “We had a tight timeline, but our community really stepped up to the plate, and by early Sunday morning, we had everything ready to go.” The Carlyle donations were then dropped off at Jewel Energy’s shop in Red Deer, Alberta (pictured) before being transported to both a relief centre for evacuees in Boyle, Alberta and also to Fort McMurray itself.

Volunteers in Boyle, Alberta work at setting up a temporary home for residents of Fort McMurray, who were forced to evacuate their community due to a rapidly-shifting, massive forest fire. “Many of these people left with literally only the clothes on their backs,” says Steve Schultz of the Carlyle Chamber of Commerce. “I know we’re all thinking of them and wishing them the best. They’re literally starting from zero and I’m very proud of what our small town was able to pull together in a very short time.”

Communities, businesses, organizations and individuals from throughout Saskatchewan have stepped up to the plate to assists their Alberta neighbours in the wake of the massive wildfire which forced the evacuation of the city of Fort McMurray. Carlyle’s Ryan Benjamin snapped this photo of 4,000 bottles of water, which a man from White City felt compelled to donate. “Needless to say, this is a truckfull,” says Benjamin.

The Arcola Daycare welcomed Cst. Lucas on Friday, May 13, where they learned about police ofﬁcers and had the opportunity to inspect an RCMP vehicle. Lucas arrived with colouring books and stickers, but captured the youths’ attention when her radio went off. The youth even had the opportunity to wish Staff Sergeant Simons a good day back at the detachment. Speaking to the youth she explained that police ofﬁcers are there to help people when they’re in trouble.

Youth were excited to explore the police truck Cst. Lucas had on her visit. The emergency contact number, 911, was discussed and the kids understood that this number is only to be used if they’re in trouble and that the closest police station to Arcola

is in Carlyle. The kids then eagerly put on their jackets as they headed outside to see the police truck Cst. Lucas was driving that day. They happily explored the truck, squish-

ing in the back seat and front. They tested out the sirens and marvelled at the lights ﬂashing. It was a great day for the youngsters as they learned and explored with Cst. Lucas.

Wawota News Submitted by Myrna Olson

The regular book study that has been meeting from October to May had their ﬁnal meeting on May 8th. This group has been meeting weekly at the home of Carol Reddekop for several years and has become a close knit group. This year they covered two books, the ﬁrst being, “Choose Joy” by Kay Warren. “In Choose Joy acclaimed author, Kay Warren shares the path to experience soul satisfying joy no matter what you are going through. Joy is deeper than happiness, lasts longer than excitement and is more satisfying. Joy is richer and fuller”. The second book was , “Laughing Matters” by Phil Callaway.

Phil is a hilarious humorist writer and speaker. Luis Palau says about the book,”Everything Phil writes is full of life because he has discovered a fabulous secret; the joy of Jesus Christ doesn’t go away, even when life is a mess!” He really knows how to get in touch with his spiritual funny bone. While reading in their study this group would be laughing so hard it was hard to continue on. If you are looking for good books to read, Carol and her group recommend both of the fore mentioned books. Viola Taylor and a friend travelled to Brandon to visit with Joyce Aitkin and Sandra. Shirley Corkish,

who is the chairman attended The Parkland Museum Network meeting in Esterhazy recently. Congratulations to Billy and Ashley Beauchesne of Fort McMurray on the birth of a son on May 6th. He was named Cyrus Young. The total proﬁt from the Julian Austin Concert was in the neighbour of

$10,000.00. Congratulations to Bailey Pryce and Jonathon Gibson on the birth of their son on May 6th. He weighed 6 lbs 12 oz and has been named Dawson Barry Aldean. The Wawota Legion Hosted a roast beef supper last Saturday evening with funds for the Red Cross to beneﬁt

the residents of the Fort McMurray ﬁres. Over 150 attended the supper and enjoyed the music of the Back 40 Drifters musical group from Moosomin. Several members of the Ford family and and friends travelled to Toronto to take part in Meagan’s Walk in support of childhood brain cancer. Rochelle, Kelton

and Zoey,Jaime and Scott and Jordi, Paul and Tenille and Emery, Rhonda Hall, Neil and Faye Rempel and of course, David and Nicki Ford were all on hand with a donation of more than $ 15,000.00.This total included funds from The Gala and private donations plus proﬁts from Faye Rempel’s book sales from, “The Shiny House”.

at the Friendship Centre. There was a very good attendance, great to see so many ladies with their hats on, the entertainment was great and the food was served in style of the older days (china dishes) and of course everyone went home with lots tucked under their belt (good for the waist line). A good attendance for the shower in honor of Chaelyn Slykhuis on Sunday evening, Juanita Armstrong welcomed everyone and was emcee for the evening, the ladies helping her had nice decorations and again lots of good food. Chaelyn received a great amount of lovely gifts. Seated at the head table was Grandma Christine Slykhuis, Robin Boutin (mother of the groom), Katie Matheson (friend of the bride), and a very special little friend Emily Armstrong helping with the gifts and being a very important little one to Chaelyn. Another old time dance was held at the Community Centre on Saturday afternoonóthe crowd was very small but everyone had a good time, they are very happy to have a couple of very young ladies coming to learn the old time dancing. The Kennedy rink has had a new face lifting this past week. But we are sorry to hear the coﬀee shop at the store will be closing on Thursday. What is in store for our little Village?

Every life is a story. There are milestones that we can’t wait to share, while there are others that we wish we didn’t have to. These stages of life are an undeniable part of the human journey, and we invite you to share yours with us in our weekly Life’s Milestones.

Are you celebrating an anniversary or birth, or you’d like to announce your engagement? Is your youngest child graduating, or perhaps a colleague is retiring? Has a loved one passed away, or would you like to remember one in some special way?

OBITUARIES Helen Gail Needham Helen Gail Needham, a resident of Manor, Sk. died, unexpectedly, in a car accident on April 26th, 2016, at the age of 64, near Estevan, Sk. Funeral services took place at Manor Legion Community Hall on Monday, May 2nd, 2016 and it was attended by more than 500 of her friends and family. Officiating was Pastor Michelle Moore. Helen was cremated and buried next to her mother and father in Estevan. Helen was born in Unity, Sk. on Sept. 27th 1951 to Frank & Josephine Needham. She grew up and attended school in Estevan. She loved horses and was an avid rider. She married her high school sweetheart, Larry Stubel. He joined the RCMP and they got stationed in North Battleford. This was where Helen was blessed with two children, Gayle & Ryan. They then moved to Carlyle, SK. and later went their separate ways. Helen was a strong, single mother and a great role model to many. She later met, Dennis Hansen, of Manor, and she learned to laugh, live, & love again. Helen was a devoted mother and grandmother. Her family was her life and soul. She enjoyed riding motorcycle, spending her summers at Alameda Dam, attending motorbike rallies, fishing, and just enjoying time with friends. She always kept in contact with everybody and was that friendly face you just loved to see. She will be deeply missed by her friends, family, and all who knew her. Helen is survived by her partner Dennis Hansen (Manor); her children, Gayle (Darin) Bohl of Bottineau, ND, & Ryan (Nancy Karvellas) Stubel of Edmonton AB; Dennis’s children Tara (Craig) Ford of Estevan, Trisha (Kelly) Schulhauser of Oxbow; Grandchildren Breckin, Kellen, & Kya Bohl, Camille & Tessa Stubel, Garett & Carsen Ford, Brooke, Kolton & Alivia Schulhauser. Sister Myrla (Joseph) Zieglgansberger of Estevan, Sk. She was preceded in death by her father and mother, Frank & Josephine Needham. If friends so wish, donations may be made to Ronald McDonald House. “THANK YOU” from Helen’s Family. Words cannot express how totally devastated and overwhelmed with grief we felt when we heard Helen was gone. It felt like the rug had just been pulled from under us. The support from near and far has been amazing and has made a difference to our families. Having you all by our side, sending your condolences, food, flowers, cards, donations, etc. was a true act of friendship to my mom and our families. We appreciate all the helping hands you have extended to us during this period of sadness and has not gone unnoticed. It is overwhelming & unbelievable that Helen touched so many people. It says something about the woman she was. She will be forever missed. Thank you from Helen’s Family

Alida News Submitted by Edel Cowan

I received word of the death of Lloyd Anderson, Regina who had passed away May 7, 2016, at the age of 60 years. Sincere sympathy is extended to his wife Suzanne (nee Toupin) and family, his sister Joyce Fraser and her family. Condolences are also extended to the Poulsen and Toupin families. A celebration of Lloyd’s life will be held May 21 at the Regina Funeral Home & Cemetery. In lieu of flowers please donate to the Saskatchewan Wildlife Federation in Lloyd’s memory. Faye Walker attended the Retired Teachers Conference in Saskatoon and also visited with her daughter Deidre, son-in-law Jeff Nickel and granddaughters Olivia, Abby, Claire and Piper before returning home on May 15. In the morning on May 13 Glennis Peterson, Weyburn stopped in for a quick visit with Lil and Leonard Patton. Ainsley Cowan accompanied her mother Shelly to a horse bombproofing clinic with Heather Brzeele held on Saturday, May 14 in Oxbow where she led her horse around obstacle courses etc. Adrianna Junk attended the clinic on Sunday. It was a very busy hour outside near the Alida rink on Saturday when many dogs and cats were

brought in by their owners to attend the Rabies clinic. A very good turnout and our pets should be safe for another year. Do hope that you were able to attend a clinic near you sometime. Murray and Adam Cowan of Estevan visited at the Cowan farm from May 13-14 with parents/ grandparents Gray and Edel Cowan and they also visited with Tim Cowan. They enjoyed sighting in a couple of guns as well as helping out with the yard work. Ainsley and Shelly Cowan were accompanied by Jacob Dubuc to spend Sunday afternoon with Lily, Kim Carlsen, Erika and Abby Land. There were also many family members and other friends who were there as they helped Abby celebrate her birthday. Happy Birthday Abby – hope you had a good day. This week should see some farmers complete their seeding operations, if all goes well we should be finished by Wednesday – hip hooray for step one to be completed. Now they will soon be out in fields checking if it is time to spray – it just seems like one busy time follows another and then before you know it will harvest – time does seem to fly by. Finally got my garden planted, now another nice

little rain would be just fine although that would bring on the weeds – oh well can’t win them all. After this last little rain it sure did green up the grass and bring out the leaves on the trees – everything is looking so nice green. However one can now see the damage that the 2014 flood has done to the trees – there are lots and lots dead ones in and among the sloughs. Gee anyone wanting dead trees for wood to burn throughout the winter months should be able to find lots and real handy to get. Just to remind you that Alida Sports Day will soon be here so get your slow-pitch team together and enter into the tournament – it’s always lots of fun. Watch for ads and posters for all information. This is the May long weekend – many will likely be heading out with their campers for the first time this year – so please remember to drive with care while out there on the roads and arrive safe and sound at your destination and back home again. Once again please remember to let me know your news; I appreciate hearing from you – call (306-443-2496), text (306-485-8561) or email (g.cowan@sasktel.net). Until next time – Keep smiling – Think positive – Drive safe and Take care.
