Carlyle Chamber of Commerce holds AGM, Steve Schultz new president Lynne Bell Observer Staff
New Carlyle Chamber of Commerce President Steve Schultz says, “I’m looking forward to working with the businesses in town for the betterment of our entire community.” At the Chamber’s annual general meeting, held Tuesday, April 14 at the Skyline Motor Inn, members also welcomed two new board members, Frank Faber and Ken King, as well as three guest speakers: Saskatchewan Chamber of Commerce CEO, Steve McLellan, Jeff Richards of Southeast Regional College, and Ron Arenshenkoff from Spectra Financial. McLellan, a former Kenosee Lake resident and area business owner, praised Tourand “For the good work you’ve done bringing the (Carlyle) Chamber back to life. I was in this room when the waterslides and the Rafferty Alameda Dam were only good ideas. You need business for the betterment of this community.” McLellan’s wide-ranging and informative talk addressed several issues of importance to residents of Saskatchewan, including oil, agriculture, water, the contributions made by temporary foreign workers, and the province’s population growth. “The oil sector has taken a bit of a hit in the last while,” said McLellan. “Oil is cyclical, and oil is going to come back, probably sooner than we think. If there’s a silver lining, I would say that now is the time we make ourselves better, faster, and more productive.” “Use this time wisely, and be ready, because it will come back.” “Across the province, people are nervous now,” added McLellan. “We’ve had a very good run in the last decade. If we compare where we are now to where we were, we’re still in a great place. The fundamentals are here. We have food, fuel, and fertilizer and the world needs food, fuel, and fertilizer. Saskatchewan has $30 billion in exports per year.” However, McLellan added that business-during a boom or a downturn-will always present challenges that must be proactively addressed. Citing a recent rail study, he said: “We had a situation where we had the biggest crop in this province, and we couldn’t get the crop to market...and as long as we continue to ship oil by rail, we’re not going to have the capacity, unless we do things differently.” Water is another cyclical issue in Saskatchewan that must also be managed, said McLellan. “From 1981 until 1989, I lived at Kenosee and during that time, Howard Young was working hard on water,” he said. “Since then, the water levels of the lakes have gone up. During the last few years, we look more like a surfing spot than a prairie, but a drought is forecast for 2024, and we need to look at ways manage water. We have to look at ways to protect ourselves from too little or too much water.” McClellan said the province’s population growth began in 2006, after the 2005 provincial homecoming. “In 2005, people came back, saw that the lights were on, and decided Saskatchewan was a great place to grow a family or a business. Since April 2006, the population has continued to grow. Population is critical and this is a place where people want to stay.”

Mock crash to be held on April 29 in Arcola Lynne Bell THE LUCKIEST SIGNS THIS WEEK: SAGITTARIUS, CAPRICORN AND AQUARIUS.
Week of April 26 to May 2, 2015 ARIES You may hear about a job opening at work that is much more in line with your career goals. Some effort and a little patience are needed to secure it.
TAURUS There are lots of negotiations going on around you, and you dominate the proceedings despite yourself. You cause a sensation and are even congratulated after a brilliant exploit.
GEMINI You spend part of the week at home because your family needs you. Perhaps you’ll also need to get ready for a move or for the sale and purchase of a property.
CANCER You have lots to say this week. You don’t talk for the sake of talking, but your comments have quite an impact in the long term and they’ll even go around the world via the Web.
LEO You’re ready to spoil yourself and do something to make yourself happy. You may spend some time in the stores. You buy lots of things that lift your spirits.
VIRGO There’s quite a bit of action over the next few days and you stand out for your skills and perseverance. You make some changes to your surroundings.
LIBRA You may feel quite a bit of accumulated fatigue. A sleepless night this week slows down some projects. New eating habits would do you some good.
SCORPIO Short reckonings make long friends. Avoid exchanging money with friends at the moment. You overcome your shyness by speaking in front of a crowd.
SAGITTARIUS Don’t be afraid of change on a professional level, as new responsibilities can bring you good future prospects. Time is a scarce commodity this week.

Accomplished Athlete:
Carlyle’s Mitchell Morrison tops in hockey, golf Carlyle’s Mitchell Morrison has recently taken the next step in his hockey career, but the 16-yearold athlete is also a promising golfer, and says the two sports “feed into each other.” “Golf prepares me for hockey and hockey prepares me for golf,” explains Morrison. “ A lot of it is with hand-eye coordination, but it’s also a good way to learn how to prepare mentally for a solo sport like golf, and a team sport, like hockey.” Morrison was selected for and recently attended the province-wide Sask First Midget Zone Tournament held April 2-5 at Cooperators Centre in Regina. In order to qualify for the Sask First tournamentwhere scouts are in attendance-the 16-year-old right wing attended a February Midget Zone Camp in Radville. “We were split into three teams,” says Morrison. “Each team had some ice sessions and drills. You play hockey, and then, hopefully, you get a call from your coach, saying you’ve qualified for the Sask First Tournament in Regina.” “I kind of knew I had a good camp,” he adds. “After a few tryouts, you kind of have a feeling about how you played, but I was happy when I got the phone call.” “You still get nerves the first few shifts, but they go away once you start playing the game.” Morrison has been playing the game since he was “about four years old, I think.” “As long as I can remember, I can remember Carlyle’s Mitchell Morrison (left) is pictured in action as a member of the Estevan Midget AA Bruins.

from a residence. Members were notified of a sudden death in Arcola of a 76-year-old male. Animal complaints There was an animal complaint of two dogs being on the side of the road along Hwy 9 north of Carlyle. An animal complaint from the R.M. of Brock was reported. Someone was out walking and heard coyotes. Assault An assault was reported in the Carlyle area. There was no physical altercation that took place and only an argument had occurred, so police were not required. There was an assault with a weapon in the Carlyle area which is currently under investigation. A disturbance was reported at a local bar in Carlyle. There was a fight occurring. RCMP are investigating the matter. Driving infractions A 27-year-old male was caught driving while disqualified, breach of probation, as well as operating an unregistered motor vehicle. They were held in custody and went to court the following day where they received 30 days in custody and a three-year driving probation. In relation to this, the individual had also been charged with failing to comply with release conditions, but this count was stayed. A 27-year-old male was charged $580 for operating an unregistered vehicle. Three tickets, each for $230, were given out for failing to stop at a stop sign to a 67-yearold male, a 45-year-old male, and a 49-year-old male. Speeding tickets were issued to a 22-year-old male for
$131; a 51-year-old female at $134; a 54-yearold male at $356; a 41-year-old male at $181; a 22-year-old male at $150; a 38-yearold male at $139; a 27-year-old male at $150; a 40-year-old male at $188; a 43-yearold male at $138; a 29-year-old male at $184; a 20-year-old male at $150; a 52-yearold male at $135; a 45-year-old male at $150; a 24-year-old male at $135; a 43-yearold male at $376; a 55-year-old female at $130; a 27-year-old male at $136 plus a three-day roadside suspension for consuming alcohol. A 29-year-old male was fined $175 for failing to wear their seatbelt as well as a roadside suspension for showing signs of impairment. A 35-year-old male was fined $175 for failing to wear their seatbelt. There was a semi truck hauling gravel reported for failing to stop at a stop sign and nearly causing three vehicles to crash along Hwy 13. The complainant was unable to get a plate number or other description of the semi. In Forget someone reported underage kids on quads driving at excessive speeds. Patrols were made but they couldn’t be located. The complainant did not want to pursue charges. An individual stopped on Hwy 13 after a rock was kicked up by a semi off of the road into the individual’s windshield. The individual later called back to say they had contacted the company the truck belonged to. There was a vehicle which had stopped south of Carlyle and the owner was arranging for a tow. The owner didn’t want RCMP to tow or be
worried if reports came in about it. A 33-year-old female was charged with failing to be accompanied by a qualified person. The individual has a learner’s permit, so required someone with a full licence with them. Initially she had been stopped for exceeding the speed limit. A vehicle was reported for discarding a burning substance from it near Arcola on Hwy 13. ATVs were being driven on private property near Kisbey. Patrols were made but the individuals couldn’t be located. There was a traffic collision on Main Street in Carlyle. Both vehicles were drivable and it was a non-reportable collision, so those involved exchanged information. An individual in the Carlyle area hit a deer. The driver was not injured; the vehicle was damaged.

Foam dance fun The students of GFK had a great time at the first ever Foam Dance. Last Friday they danced in 3 feet of bubbles while lasers flashed and foam floated from the ceiling. It was an amazing experience. Thanks to Miss Broberg, the SLT, and all the staff who chaperoned. GFK and CES would like to invite the public to a FREE pancake breakfast on May 7th, 2015 to kick off our Pink Day at Gordon F. Kells school. We will be serving pancakes, sausages, coffee and juice from 8:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. We would also like to also invite you to the Carlyle Memorial Hall at 7:30 p.m. where Dr. Eva Olsson will be giving a presentation to the community. Dr. Olsson, Holocaust survivor, uses the Holocaust and her experiences in it as a springboard to discuss the following key issues: • The power of hate and the need to stop it when it occurs. • The importance of not being a bystander when bad things are hap-
pening. • The importance of having compassion and respect for self and others. On Tuesday, April 28, the Rookie and Junior Pre-district Badminton Playoffs are in Oxbow.

Parenting Tips from Regional KidsFirst – Stop the family food fight With so many fast and convenient food choices available, it is becoming harder and harder to get your family to eat healthy. Stop the family food fight by allowing your kids to help choose, cook and serve family meals. Most kids will enjoy deciding what to make for dinner. Talk to them about making choices and planning a balanced meal. Some might even want to help shop for ingredients and prepare the meal. At the store, teach kids to check out food labels to begin understanding what to look for. In the kitchen, select age-appropriate tasks so kids can play a part without getting hurt or feeling overwhelmed. At mealtimes, kids should decide if they’re
hungry, what they will eat from the foods served, and when they’re full. And at the end of the meal, don’t forget to praise the chef. School lunches can be another learning lesson for kids. Brainstorm about what kinds of foods they’d like for lunch or go to the grocery store to shop together for healthy, packable foods. More importantly, if you can get them thinking about what they eat for lunch, you might be able to help them make positive changes. That’s not to say they’ll suddenly want a salad instead of French fries, but the mealtime habits you help create now can lead to a lifetime of healthier choices.

Pause for Reflection
It’s a matter of choice
By Ken Rolheiser www.kenrolheiser.com
By Linda Wegner Some weeks, there’s nothing; others, like this week, seem to abound with events that scream “write about me!” The next challenge, to decide what’s really worthy of publication space and this writer’s energy. Looking back, so much has happened. There were humorous incidents. Impatient words I’d like to retract but other words I’m glad I shared with someone who was hurting. There were the several successful work-related outcomes that cheered the heart while the sad news of a sudden and totally unexpected death in the community left many in shock and sadness. Tea with friends plus a Chamber of Commerce luncheon with colleagues each provided pleasant company and encouraging conversations. Winding up the week, I prepared for the next day’s trade show with Saturday spent promoting the services and products offered by our homebased businesses. Above all these was a wonderful visit with family. But back to the question: what should I include in this article? From among so much, what’s the answer? Simply put, it all boils down to a matter of choice. I’ve been thinking a lot about options lately. Choosing what to write about each week is high on my list of importance but over these past
Easter Love brings hope and peace A current news source says “11 Christians have been killed every hour for the past 10 years. Christians are martyred now mostly in Africa and Asia: Congo, Sudan, Nigeria, India, Iraq, and Syria.” How do we live with these continued atrocities? How do we continue to smile and proclaim the Good News without grimacing? It takes a great deal of Faith and humility, and a spirit of service to others. At his Easter Sunday Mass Pope Francis delivered his message and blessing to the World, stressing that humility is needed in order to enter into the Mystery of Jesus’ Resurrection, and he prayed for Christians being persecuted for their belief in Christ. “The world proposes that we put ourselves forward at all costs, that we compete, that we prevail,” he said. “But Christians, by the grace of Christ, dead and risen, are the seeds of another humanity, in which we seek to live in service to one another, not to be arrogant, but rather respectful and ready to help.” He added: “This is not weakness, but true strength! Those who bear within them God’s power, his love and his justice, do not need to employ violence; they speak and act with the power of truth, beauty and love.” Noting the many regions across the globe riven by suffering and violence, especially Africa and the Middle East, the Holy Father implored the Risen Lord for “the grace not to succumb to the pride which fuels violence and war, but to have the humble courage of pardon and peace.” “We ask Jesus, the Victor over death, to lighten the sufferings of our many brothers and sisters who are persecuted for his name, and of all those who suffer injustice as a result of ongoing conflicts and violence,” he said.

Though sometimes seen as the cause of conflict, religion contains the seed of peace and hope. In his column “Principles for Interfaith Dialogue and Interfaith Attitudes” theologian Ron Rolheiser enunciates ten principles about what is best in world religions: 1. All that is good, true, and beautiful comes from one and the same author, God. 2. God wills the salvation of all people, equally, without discrimination… each religion is to reject nothing that is true and holy in other religions. 3. No one religion or denomination has the full and whole truth. 4. All faiths and all religions are journeying towards the fullness of truth. 5. Diversity within religions is a richness, willed by God [Though God wills our eventual unity, He blesses our diversity]. 6. God is “scattered” in world religions… [which] all help to make God known. 7. Each person must account for his or her faith on the basis of his or her own conscience. 8. Intentionally all the great world religions interpenetrate each other (and, for a Christian, that means that they interpenetrate the mystery of Christ). …God’s spirit blows freely. 9. A simple external, historical connection to any religion is less important than achieving a personal relationship, ideally of intimacy, with God. 10. Within our lives and within our relationship to other religions, respect, graciousness, and charity must trump all other considerations. …what lies deepest inside of every sincere faith are these fundamentals: respect, graciousness, and charity. If we humbly seek to serve others, and pray and work for peace, we can live lives filled with love and hope.

several months I’ve found myself having to make even tougher decisions regarding the way I spend my time and my energy. How long do I want to continue working full time? Given my health related challenges how long am I able to contribute volunteer hours and to which organization(s)? If I
could only keep three things in my life, what would those things be and in what order of priority? “And if it seems evil to you to serve the Lord, choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve….” (Joshua 24:15) We never go wrong by choosing to walk in obedience to God’s principles.
The View from the desk of Marga Cugnet, CEO, Sun Country Health Region
Find the right service from the right care provider at the right time One of the improvement projects in Sun Country Health Region this past year goes to the very core of our goal to provide ef¿cient and effective health care service to the public. The project was designed to guide patients and their families through the maze of health care providers and programs to ¿nd the right care at the right time from the right provider. The project has demonstrated an opportunity to improve access for patients and is already being examined for replication in another location. The project took place in Weyburn General Hospital’s emergency department. The goal was to educate the public about the wide range of services provided in Sun Country Health Region that may prevent visits to the Emergency Room that could have been provided at more appropriate locations. Our intention is not to stop people from going to the emergency department. We DO want to inform and direct them if another provider can provide that care. The emergency department is designed to manage urgent situations such as trauma-type emergencies. A key factor is that none of our hospitals have doctors on site 24 hours each day. They are all on-call. We do not have the population and numbers of emergencies to hire a staff emergency doctor for each site. That means, in every case, a nurse will call a doctor from home or from his/her medical clinic to come to the emergency department when a patient arrives who needs attention. If that patient could have gone to another care provider - for the same care – most patients would prefer to do that. There are lots of examples of care that could be provided by alternate providers. The renewing of prescriptions is one. Instead of going to the emergency department and waiting for a doctor, you might call one of the doctors or nurse practitioners accepting new patients (a list is on our website at http://www.suncountry.sk.ca/ directory/ doctors and nurse practitioners accepting new patients). The patient is more satis¿ed to make an appointment, the service is provided without a wait and the doctors responding to the emergency department know the calls are emergencies. Information about alternative points of care is available in the Directory of Services available in every facility in the Region, and on the Sun Country Health Region website http://www.suncountry.sk.ca/. Help is also available in deciding where to go when you have a health issue by calling Healthline at 811 or visiting Healthlineonline. The patient navigator who answers the Healthline telephone will assess your symptoms and give you advice. This kind of change in the way health care is delivered may save health care dollars. It will also improve the quality of life for doctors covering the emergency department on-call and certainly will increase the satisfaction level of the patients. That’s our primary goal.

spoke a little bit about himself and the Rider Reading Program. As part of a fun activity the grade three’s proceeded to ask interview questions to Woldu who answered everything from what colour his eyes are, to his position on the field, to how he first started playing football. Woldu happily answered the questions and encouraged the students to keep them coming after the pre-planned questions were all asked. Following the Q and A period, Woldu then read a silly story to the classroom before taking pictures with the students and autographing t-shirts and bookmarks. Woldu then made his way to the gymnasium after spending approximately an hour with the kids in the grade three classroom where he answered questions posed by the whole of Arcola School’s student body. When the questions wrapped up, Woldu took the time to visit and take pictures with the rest of the students. Overall, it was a fun afternoon for the students in Arcola. The school was in fact filled with a sea of green as students wore their Rider gear to school that day.
Following a visit to the grade threes in Arcola, an assembly was held for all students where they were able to meet, take photos with, and get signatures from Paul Woldu of the Regina Roughriders.

Hunter Rolufs: A love of archery Kelly Running Observer Staff
As most 16-year-olds become excited for their licence and work towards buying their first vehicle, Hunter Rolufs of Arcola is saving his hard-earned money to purchase a competition bow. Developing a passion for archery over the last five years, Rolufs has been competing for the past three years. Rolufs decided five years ago that he wanted to build a bow. Working in his grandparent’s backyard, he went to work. “I did it for fun,” Rolufs says. “I wanted to see if I could build one and what would happen, if it would work.” As he worked on a homemade bow, Rolufs came across one in Walmart which jumped out at him. He decided this was something he wanted to pursue further and began saving money for it. His parents, Todd and Billie, saw the efforts he was putting into saving money for the bow and decided it would make a perfect Christmas present. Thrilled with the gift, Hunter began shooting on his own, attempting to figure out the intricacies of shooting a bow, but decided that he wanted to see if he could find someone to help him learn. “I ended up starting with the Redvers Wildlife Archery Club,” Rolufs said. “They had me start on a long bow and I just progressed from there.” Rolufs now shoots his Hoyt Charger Compound Bow both in competition and while hunting. “I practiced in my backyard whenever I had a chance and with the archery club in Redvers. When I was
preparing for competitions, Tricia Pickard allowed me to come in for extra time on weekends and with other archery groups in Redvers. So I would shoot at least twice a week.” He competed in a total of three competitions throughout the year, including the Junior Olympic Program (JOP) under the Saskatchewan Archery Association (SAA) which includes youth between six-yearsold and 21-years-old. Here he placed 5th overall with a score of 250 in March, having only shot one round. The competition was held in Prince Albert. Rolufs competed in the SAA Indoor Provincial competition also held in Prince Albert as well. Within the Cadet Male age category, Rolufs earned 18th with a total score of 515 after two rounds of shooting. Earlier in the year Rolufs also took part in a Canadian Regional Indoor Championship in Carnduff where after two rounds of shooting, he scored a 487, finishing in the middle of the pack, but happy to have placed rather well considering the depth of the competition. While competing is something Rolufs thoroughly enjoys, he also makes time to enjoy bow hunting as well. “I’ve used both rifle and bow for deer hunting. For me it’s easier with a bow. Archery I find I can hit my target more easily than with a gun. They’re very different from each Hunter Rolufs (16) enjoys archery and is pursuing competitions in the sport other.” Wanting to continue competing where he continually improves. Looking forward to purchasing a competition and simply enjoying archery, Rolufs bow and striving to become better each time he shoots, Rolufs is looking forward to his future in archery. (Kelly Running) is now saving up for a competition bow and will be practicing to hone his skills going into the 2016 competition season next year.
The Crescent Point Leisure Complex is offering a Bronze Medallion and Bronze Cross course from June 2nd-12th. Also a WSI recertification on June 6th. For more information or to register, please call Danielle at 577-1991.

Or so the Connor McDavid hype would have you believe. McDavid is a “generational” player according to hockey experts who are paid to know these things. Players such as him are said to have the talent to turn around a franchise’s fortunes. So the sadsack Oilers, who will celebrate having the No. 1 choice in the draft for the fourth time in the last six years after nine consecutive seasons out of the playoffs, will soon challenge for Stanley Cups as long as McDavid is healthy and filling the net. Wayne Gretzky, Mario Lemieux and Sidney Crosby are the last three “generational” players and look what happened to their teams. Multi Stanley Cups for the Great One in Edmonton, although his supporting cast of Mark Messier, Paul Coffey, Jari Kurri and Grant Fuhr wasn’t too shabby. The Penguins won Cups with Lemieux in the springs of 1992 and 1993, and won a championship in 2009 with Crosby leading the way. McDavid, who exhibited excitement along the lines of ‘I’m getting an oil change’ or ‘Oh, look, new socks’ immediately upon learning he was Edmonton-bound, was deemed ‘exceptional’ and allowed to play major junior hockey as a 15-year-old, something the Western Hockey League doesn’t allow. When he was 15, he scored 25 goals (66 points) in 63 games for the Erie Otters of the Ontario Hockey League. When he was 16, an age when most junior players get fourth-line minutes, he racked up 99 points (including 28 goals) in only 56 games. This season, at 17, he missed six weeks after breaking his hand in a fight but still posted 44 goals and 120 points in 47 games.
Yeah, those are ‘generational player’ numbers. Exceptional numbers. When he suits up for the Oilers next year, he’ll become the team’s No. 1 player, a full-time powerplay specialist and, in a year or two, likely team captain. Stanley Cups to follow. Is the McDavid hype legitimate? Here’s what former NHL star Dale Hawerchuk, quite a junior phenom himself, had to say: “He skates like Bobby Orr did, where Sports Wrap-up it looks like everybody with Bruce Penton else couldn’t skate at the same level; he has vision like Gretz and hands like Mario (Lemieux). He’s the real deal, that’s for sure … He’s the full package.” Fans of the lottery-winning Oilers can’t wait. For that matter, neither can hockey fans in general. • Scott Ostler of the San Francisco Chronicle: “LeBron James is having trouble unloading his 12,000-sq.-ft. home in Miami. It’s fit for a King James, but nobody’s biting at the $17 million price tag. James took his talents to Cleveland but left his mortgage in South Beach.” • Sign outside a Medicine Hat restaurant: “Free food during all Leafs’ playoff games.” • Sunmedia’s Rob Tychkowski on Twitter: “Hey Buffalo: Firing Ted Nolan because the Sabres weren’t winning is like firing a Kamikaze pilot because he wrecked the plane.” • Headline at SportsPickle.com: “Pre-med student gets NHL team-physician job after accurately identifying upper body, lower body.” • Comedy writer Alan Ray, on the 19-inning Yan-
kees-Red Sox game: “It went on so long, New York fans could barely raise their middle fingers.” • Comedy writer Alex Kaseberg, after a 21-year-old won the Masters: “Tiger Woods has hickeys older than Jordan Spieth.” • Late-night funnyman Conan O’Brien of TBS: “Former New England Patriot Aaron Hernandez has been convicted of murder and sentenced to life in prison. Hernandez’s lawyer plans to appeal and try to get his sentence down to two seasons with the New York Jets.” • Blogger Chad Picasner: “Barry Bonds has offered his support to Alex Rodriguez in his return to the game. That’s like John Dillinger saying ‘Let’s give Baby Face Nelson a break.’” • RJ Currie of sportsdeke.com: “On the Winnipeg Jets playoff-clinching road trip, Ondrej Pavelec gave up no goals in regulation or O.T. - three outings, 83 straight rejections. It reminded me of the week I tried speed dating.” • Brad Dickson of the Omaha World Herald: “An NHL linesman was caught singing along to a Journey song during a game. ‘Sure, I missed the call, but the play occurred right during the good part of ‘Don’t Stop Believin’.” • Janice Hough of leftcoastssportsbabe.com: “The Chicago Cubs are offering a new ‘Mac and Cheetos’ hot dog For all those fans who have decided maybe it’s not worth living to wait until next year.” • Ex-Phillies pitcher Mitch Williams, to Philadelphia’s WIP Radio, after he and ex-teammate Lenny Dykstra agreed to roast each other: “It will be the first time I feel like a Harvard grad.” • RJ Currie again: “For the first time in years, the San Jose Sharks failed to make the playoffs. Some teams would call that disappointing; the Sharks call it a time-saver.” Care to comment? Emil brucepenton2003@yahoo.ca
18U Vipers compete at Cougars Volleyball Club tourney Submitted by the Southeast Vipers Volleyball Club The 18U Vipers had the opportunity to compete at the University of Regina on Saturday, April 18, and Sunday, April 19, as they participated in the 18U Cougars Volleyball Club tournament. The girls faced a tough pool facing Yorkton, JCVC (Saskatoon), and Glentworth in round-robin action. Losing to Yorkton in two, but able to take a set off of the Saskatoon team, the girls carried their momentum into the Glentworth game taking both sets. The Vipers then went on to compete against Strasbourg in a playoff match. Though the Vipers put up a fight, Strasbourg earned victory. The next morning the girls would take on Montmartre in a three-set battle. Though it was a tough fight, Montmartre took the win in the third set leaving the Vipers to play against Glentworth again. Though they battled Glentworth
was able to take the win in the final match of the tournament. Though the game didn’t go in the Vipers favour, Kayla Nelson was able to serve 14 in a row to not only take back a deficit but gain a lead over Glentworth at one point in the game. The weekend also saw Marcedes Singleton, libero (defensive specialist), have great success defending the court and making quality passes to the setter in order to run plays. Two others who particularly played their hearts out were Katy McEwen and Jordan Johnston who consistently bring aggressive play to the court when they step on. Thought they fought tough battles but were unable to clench victories, all of the girls did well throughout the weekend. Next action for the 18Us will be May 2-3 in Saskatoon where they will compete in Provincials, while the 15U team is competing this weekend in Saskatoon at Provincials.

Carlyle Spring Market
Thirty vendors “are on hand to meet all of our customers’ shopping needs” at Carlyle’s inaugural spring market and trade show, according to organizer and vendor, Christina Birch. “It’s fantastic to see locals supporting locals and keeping money within the local economy.”
Carlyle’s Spring Market and Trade Show received applications from business owners from throughout Saskatchewan and Manitoba. Among those selected was Lucille Michel of Estevan, whose handmade Puzzle Lamps by Lucille-suitable for indoor and outdoor use- will soon include a Saskatchewan Roughrider lamp.
Ken Hamm and Heather Peat Hamm take a break from signing Ken’s CDs and Heather’s book, Blue Grama, which is an artistic and scientific exploration of Saskatchewan’s landscape. Ken also treated shoppers to some impromptu live music. Organizer Christina Birch says that event’s like Carlyle’s Spring Market and Trade Show benefit the local economy as well. “It not only brings people to the trade show, but those who come, also stop at some of the amazing shops and restaurants we have here in Carlyle, and of course, enjoy our area artists.”
Carlyle’s first-ever Spring Market and Trade Show-held Saturday, April 18 in the Carlyle Memorial Hall- “is just in time for Mother’s Day,” says organizer and vendor Christina Birch of Carlyle, who is pictured serving a line-up of customers ready to purchase creations from her eco-friendly, ethically-produced jewelery line, Color By Amber.

The popular prairie-produced and locallysourced line of bath and body products is produced in Saskatchewan and Alberta, and will soon be featured at Saskatoon’s Flock and Gather Craft Collective and Edmonton’s Royal Bison Craft & Art Fair. Author Denise Donais Calder was on hand to sell, sign, and chat about her popular creative non-fiction series, “The Other Side.”

Letters from Africa 04.20.15
M
om and Dad showed up in Nairobi on Friday, April 17th! I didn’t tell them I was going to be at the airport to pick them up so as they came out of arrivals, searching for a Kenyan taxi driver with their names on a sign, it was so fun to see their faces light up when they finally noticed me standing in the crowd! As I write this, they have only been here for three days and we’ve already experienced the craziness of downtown Nairobi, explored a waterfall and hand fed bananas to the monkeys in the back yard! I’d say so far, so good! Tomorrow we head out to Marurui for Mom and Dad’s first experience in a slum. We are going to throw a “birthday party” for all the kids at the school! So many kids don’t know when their birthdays are or can’t afford to really celebrate birthdays and seeing as school is out for this month, we figured to take advantage of the break and celebrate all the children’s birthdays together! I’m incredibly excited to be able to introduce my parents to all of the kids and to spoil the kids a little bit as well. Mom and
but Kibera is the second largest slum in the world. It’s the size of Central Park, New York and is inhabited by over 1 million people. It’s a place that breaks my heart more every time I visit and yet I love being there! I’m excited and yet nervous to have my parents there, I know it’s not something for the faint of hearts and yet it’s something I feel everyone should experience. Furthermore, knowing that all of this is so much to take in in a short 10-day period, I hope I’m not over loading them! After Kibera we get to spend an afternoon with Jason and Jennifer Sheppard who are originally from Saskatoon who have lived here for a number of years now and have a ministry called Mission:180. They were the missionaries I worked with the first time I ever came to Kenya so we get to reconnect with them and catch up with them, see what they’re doing and how their ministry has grown and enjoy a meal together! After the weekend, one of the last things on our to-do list is to spend a day at Happy Life Children’s Home, and potentially venture out to their farm location where a special little man is that I’ve
named Reuben that absolutely stole my whole heart. My hope was that when I went back to visit this time that I would be able to see him again but since my time here in 2013, Hap-
Nicole with parents Deb and Blair Andrew py Life’s ministry has grown in amazing ways and they have opened a farm location where the children are able to live with more room to run and play as well as a school! Reuben has been moved out to that farm which is a great thing for him, but was tough for me when I showed up to Happy Life’s location in the city to discover that he wasn’t there anymore. My hope and prayer is that while my parent’s are here not only will they be able to experience Happy Life in the city but also be able to meet Reuben (which I can assure you will be an emotional day for this girl!). I promise to fill you all in next week after Mom and Dad have headed home as to how the 10 days played out! It’s been so refreshing for me to have my parents here, to have someone to “talk” to even though it sometimes feels like you’re stumbling and rambling through feelings or explana-
I are spending the evening tonight baking up cupcakes to ice in the morning for the kids. After our day in Marurui we will step things up a notch and spend the day in Kibera on Wednesday. Some of you know from my other stories and some maybe not,
been anxiously waiting to see. Happy Life Children’s Home is an orphanage I was able to spend some time at during my last trip in 2013 and was also able to spend a day at helping just a few weeks ago. When I was here in 2013 there was a little boy
tions about what you just experienced together. Just when I needed someone to understand what I’m trying to say or the way I feel and let me know I’m not completely crazy or weird, my parents really did come at the most perfect time. They have told me many times about the number of people who have sent hugs and well wishes, who have been reading this article, or following my blog and I want to send a big THANK-YOU to everyone back home because I don’t know if I would have the same motivation and energy to push through some of my tough days if it weren’t for all of your love and support back home. I’m truly blessed and thankful to come from such an amazing community and I can’t wait to be back home and see all of you and share even more of my time and trip with you! Until next week, with all my love Nicole

Alida News Submitted by Edel Cowan Eleanor Harrison and the Alida & Area 4-H Beef Club members and their family attended the Yorkton Spring Steer & Heifer Show last weekend (April 10-12). One of the club members, Haley Brownell received the Spirit of Youth Award, in recognition of her assistance and help with her own club and other clubs. Haley is a senior member in the club. Congratulations Haley on a job well done. Sincere sympathy is extended to Marilyn Larsen and son Axel on the death of her brother-in-law/ uncle, Harold Larsen at the Redvers Haven on April 13, 2015 at the age of 78. Condolences are also extended to his sisters Gloria Larsen and Janice (Bob) Chapman and to all other family members. From April 4-13 Rozanne McClung and Lesa Bendtsen accompanied their daughters, Sara McClung and Hayley Bendtsen, as well as other students from Carnduff School and their parents, on a trip to Europe where they toured Germany, Italy, Austria and Switzerland. Shelly Cowan and daughter Ainsley were in Minot from April 15-19 helping at the Nilsen home as both parents were recovering from surgeries. Margaret Peet spent from April 16-19 in Regina visiting with her mother, Claire Germain. On Sunday she travelled to Weyburn where she met Brian and while there they also visited with Bob and Joyce Peet. April and Adrianna Junk, Trisha, Brooke and Ali Schulhauser were in Moose Jaw over the weekend (April 17-19) where Adrianna and Ali participated in a dance competition. Ethan and Aidyn Junk spent the weekend with their grandparents, Gary and Brenda Junk. What great weather we’ve had this past week – made one believe that spring is here and summer will be following soon. Even this overcast, cool and damp weather over the weekend makes one thing it’s defiantly spring. I mentioned signs of spring in my last column, but this week I know that it is spring as a “for sure” sign is now here – WOOD
TICKS – yah, that’s right – wood ticks, they are here and I HATE them with a passion. I was out working in the yard over the weekend – racking, picking up winter debris and fixing up flower plots, what a joy until I found a couple of those little creepy crawly critters. Keep your eyes open and try to stay away from them (I know that’s easier said than done). Oh it’s going to be another long season to deal with them as they seem to be here until well into June – that will make it about four months to keep a lookout for those blank-y-d-blank ticks. I can already feel them crawling on me – oh joy! Noticed the other day that there’s been some volunteer demolition work done to the front of the rink, getting ready to rebuild and renovate the waiting room area. This will feature a ground level 60x130 addition attached to the north end of the rink ice surface, two dressing rooms, a new kitchen and spacious viewing. The estimated total cost for this project is $520,000. The Alida Recreation Board and Rink Committee are busy looking for your support in many areas, such as fund-raising ideas and well as attending and supporting them, lending a hand with demolishing and rebuilding whenever possible, with donations and/or contributions (tax deductible receipts are available) and recognition will be displayed on a plaque. They also will need some guarantors for a loan and ask that you contact one of their members (Cheryle Harrison, Lynette Peet, Lesa Bentsen, Margaret Peet, Leanne Dubuc, Shanna Carriere, Jaye Lemieux, Ken Potapinski, Jason Junk, Kelly Schulhauser, Tim Cowan and Trevor Paton) if interested and for more information. So far funds raised total approximately $130,695.00 (excludes insurance/grants). Heads up folks – We’ve got a long way to go! Until next time folks – please remember to call (306-443-2496) or e-mail (g.cowan@sasktel.net) me with your news – we all appreciate it – Think positive – Keep smiling – Drive safely and Take care out there.
All-time record wholesale trade for February Saskatchewan’s wholesale trade hit an all-time record for February 2015 reaching $2.5 billion, up 25.9 per cent over last February, the largest percentage increase among the provinces according to Statistics Canada. On the national front, wholesale trade was up only 5.5 per cent. “Saskatchewan is in a unique position because our economy has a broad base,” Economy Minister

Bill Boyd said. “Hitting record wholesale trade and exceeding what is happening in other provinces is important and will help us continue to build a strong Saskatchewan.” Wholesale trade was up 7.3 per cent between January 2015 and February 2015, the highest increase on a percentage basis among provinces, and well ahead of the 0.4 per cent decline recorded nationally. “With diversity in our economy, we are able to better absorb short term challenges like those in the energy sector,” Boyd said. “Many financial analysts are predicting that over the long-term, the economy will show strength in the west, and results like this show that Saskatchewan remains strong.” Thank you to our readers for your feedback . . .

Crowns helping Saskatchewan grow Saskatchewan’s Crown Corporations had consolidated net earnings of $163 million in 2015, with total revenues increased to $5.2 billion. Crowns recognize the need for capital improvements and the increase in demand for their services. In order to meet this unprecedented need, Crown corporation capital investment in infrastructure continued at record levels. In 2014, $1.9 billion was spent, despite challenges of competition, high construction and operation costs and unrealized market value adjustments that affected net earnings at SaskTel, SaskEnergy and SaskPower. “The Crown corporations are investing to meet

the demands of growth in our province,” Crown Investments Minister Don McMorris said. “Infrastructure investment continues, at record levels, enabling the Crowns to provide high quality services that Saskatchewan residents and businesses have come to expect, while keeping rates among the lowest in Canada.” Some of the projects included: • Launch of the Boundary Dam Integrated Carbon Capture and Sequestration Project, the first of its kind in the world. • Expansion of InfiNET, SaskTel’s fibre network, to Prince Albert – continuing the work already being done in Regina, Saskatoon and Moose

Jaw. • SaskEnergy spent $101 million to ensure continued safe and reliable distribution and transmission of natural gas. • $6.5 million spent by SaskWater on asset refurbishment and replacement. The Crown sector also paid $206 million to the government’s General Revenue Fund (GRF). “The Crowns play a large part in the quality of life in our province and help us to achieve our objectives in the Saskatchewan Plan for Growth,” McMorris said.

Consumer’s opinion of farming By Calvin Daniels The issue of image was at the heart of a presentation to the recent Yorkton Rotary Farmer Appreciation Night. The guest speakers; Adele Buettner (CAC) & Pat Beaujot (P.Ag.), with Farm & Food Care Saskatchewan focused in on the need for the agriculture sector to make sure consumers know the good job they do producing food in sustainable, safe ways. It is something which is obvious, given the change in our world. While agriculture remains important, in Saskatchewan the sector accounted for $13.9 billion in exports in Saskatchewan, the personal connection of consumers to the farm has disappeared. Today only about now-in-50 Canadians have a direct tie to farms. Now we in Saskatchewan might think that is an Ontario situation, skewed by populace cities such as Toronto, but a recent visit to a classroom at Columbia School in Yorkton for a presentation on farming proved the situation is not the case. There was not a student in the classroom from a farm. Many had never been on a farm. So the vision our consumers have of farming is no longer personal experience, or even a vision supported by firsthand information from a direct relative, or friend. Farming, for many consumers now is as foreign as deep sea fishing, or mining for gold. And that creates a situation where the consumer’s opinion of farming, how it is carried out, and how safe the food they eat is, can be swayed by situational incidents, and outright fabrications. Granted the safety record of products headed to consumers is not always good. The list of bad things which were deemed safe, were allowed into consumer’s hands, and then proved deadly, is a long one. No one will forget the issues surrounding lead
paint, asbestos insulation, the drug Thalidomide, and Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). Interestingly, consumers seem to have given the industrial sector a free pass, even with the record of bad decisions. Meanwhile, agriculture seems to be the sector consumers are raising many concerns over these days. A lot of it comes from being less than completely informed. The idea of sustainability is an example, as was pointed out at the Rotary evening, farmers in Western Canada were quick to pick up on minimum till systems, and that change has done much to preserve topsoil from wind and water erosion. But how does the sector get that information to consumers? That will be one of the key roles for the recently former Farm & Food Care Saskatchewan. They already have a haughty informative booklet; ‘The Real Dirt on Farming’ in print, and it does hold a lot of information on farming which consumers should know. However, I am not sure the imagery does the farm sector a good service. Cute calves and goats on page 11, piglets on the next page, and a darling calf with its mother on page 20, feed a stereotype of farming akin to the hip-roofed barn and free range chickens of grade school primers a half century ago. My wife leafed through the pages at the supper, and made the comment “aren’t they cute” when arriving at the picture of the goats. Children in Toronto, Vancouver and even Yorkton and Prince Albert aren’t going to be fans of eating cute, any more than the public liked ‘cute’ seals being harvested. The harvest was forced to change, and fish stocks may be suffering because of that, but it was consumer influence that started that ball rolling. Filling consumer’s heads with cute pictures, and then

trying to sell the idea that eating meat is good, really sets up the system to fight against itself. There is a fine line these days in terms of image. Wise hunters no longer kill deer, they harvest them. Language and image are critical, and while consumers need facts upon which they can build informed decisions, how those facts are presented matter too.

INFERNO™ DUO DELIVERS A DOUBLE-BARREL BURNDOWN SOLUTION TO PROBLEM WEEDS. Tough broadleaves and flushing grassy weeds in spring wheat have met their match. INFERNO™ DUO Herbicide from Arysta LifeScience goes to work with both barrels blazing, as two active ingredients work together with glyphosate to deliver added benefit on target broadleaf and grass weeds.
“In the past, spring wheat growers had to choose between investing in either a grassy weed product or sticking with a broadleaf-only product like Express® or PrePass™ with their glyphosate burndown. Now with INFERNO DUO, they don’t have to choose,” says Trent McCrea, Arysta LifeScience ence Marketing Manager, Herbicides.
NO BURNDOWN PRODUCT IS MORE RUTHLESS INFERNO DUO combines the enhanced broadleaf activity of tribenuron (the same active ingredient in Express®) with the broadleaf and longer-lasting soil activity on grasses of flucarbazone. “INFERNO DUO with glyphosate gets control of hard-to-kill weeds like dandelion, hawk’s beard, foxtail barley* and Roundup Ready® canola, while providing longer lasting residual control of grassy weeds like flushing wild oats** and green foxtail,” says Dan Reaves of Precision Ag Services Ltd.
AND FOR OR BROADLEAVES ONLY, THERE’S ’S INFERNO Arysta LifeScience is also offering an alternative burndown wn product to Express. Growers can boost their heir glyphosate performance on weeds like volunteer unteer Roundup Ready canola and more, by adding ng INFERNO Herbicide in an equivalent high-quality uality WDG formulation. For more re information on INFERNO DUO and INFERNO, NO, visit Precision Ag Services Ltd., or call 1-866-761-9397
*With 900 gae/ha rate of glyphosate. ** Up to 2 weeks residual control.

Don Shakotko 1946-2015 The janitor of God; Shannon’s Beloved; Jesse (Tammy) & Bert’s (Bevin) Papa; Niah, Ayla, Riel, Quinn, & Coco’s Diede; Myrna, Sandy, Tim (Donna), & Sherri’s (James) brother; Hank & Gyda’s son-in-law; and uncle to many amazing nieces & nephews, died in Arcola Hospital on April 15. Don lived a big life, full of many adventures -- the one he’s on now capping them all. His boys were his best friends, bourbon was his favourite drink, blues was his kind of music, he liked to hang out with bees, and he loved Jesus with his whole heart. There will be no funeral service, but you would honour Don’s memory by dropping some money in the hat of a street musician or giving to the Soul’s Harbour Rescue Mission in Regina. The Dude Abides. Arrangements were entrusted to Hall Funeral Services, Estevan.

DYER: In loving memory of Kenneth Reginald Dyer, April 17, 2014, age 80 years. Survived by his wife, Effie; children, Kevin (Bonnie), Valerie (John) Mahnic, Lee-Ann (Jeff) Marcynuk, Carolin (Scott) Peterson; grandchildren, Ryan (Carrie) and Ashley, Tiffany and Michael (Maria), Renee Clemens, Caitlin and Samantha; great-grandchildren, Nami, Daniel and James; brothers, Ron (Donna), Marvin (Lorraine), David (Evelyn); sisters, Joyce Springer, Dorothy (Ross) Windsor; many nieces, nephews, cousins, aunts, uncles and friends. Predeceased by his parents, Reginald and Arlie; son, Steven; sister, Lorraine Povey. Life is Eternal “Life is eternal,” the good Lord said, So do not think of your loved one as dead For death is only a stepping stone To a beautiful life we have never known, A place where God promised man he would be Eternally happy and safe and free, A wonderful land where we live anew When our journey on earth is over and through So trust in God and doubt Him never For all who love Him live forever, And while we cannot understand Just let the Savior take your hand, For when Death’s Angel comes to call “God is so Great and we’re so small” And there is nothing you need fear For faith in God makes all things clear. ~ By Helen Steiner Rice Lovingly remembered - Effie and Family 49-1

April 19-25 has been declared Victims of Crime Awareness Week in Saskatchewan, coinciding with National Victims of Crime Awareness Week. This year’s theme is “Shaping the Future Together.” The week is an opportunity to raise awareness about the unique needs of victims of crime and tragedy, as well as the services available for them in their time of crisis. Victims of Crime Awareness Week also recognizes the good work done by Victims Services staff and volunteers in Saskatchewan. “Every year I get to meet a number of these tremendous people and every year I’m amazed by their compassion and dedication,” Justice Minister and Attorney General Gordon Wyant said. “I hope all Victims Services staff and volunteers take a moment this week to reflect on their contribution. They truly make Saskatchewan a better place to live.” In 2013-14, the roughly 160 volunteer Victim Support Workers in this
province helped nearly 9,000 people in their time of need. To show the province’s appreciation, Minister Wyant will host a luncheon at the Legislative Building for long-term volunteers who have completed 10, 15 and 20 years of service. Victims Services programs are spread out across the province and provide a range of services, including support immediately following a crime and throughout the criminal justice process, specialized responses to domestic violence and sexual assault, as well as support for children and other vulnerable victims and witnesses who are required to testify in court. For information about Victims of Crime Awareness Week, services available for victims, or volunteer opportunities, please contact your local Victim Services program. You can also call the Victims Services Branch at 306-787-3500 or visit the website at www.justice.gov.sk.ca/victimsservices.
