The

Ten years of community at Kenosee Lake Kitchen Party Kelly Running Observer Staff

The Kenosee Lake Kitchen Party has grown over the years and to reflect this with instruments including the cello have been added to the instruction available at the camp.

Sept. 19th &

Over a decade ago Will Elliot and Michele Amy developed an idea, which quickly evolved into a dream, of hosting a music camp at the Kenosee Lake Boys and Girls Camp. There would be all of the fun camp activities of swimming, kayaking, camp fires, and being in nature; but, it would also focus on music and with an ever-growing fiddle community in the area it felt right. The first camp was held in August 2006 with a number of fiddling instructors and the help of Father David Banga. It was one week long and approximately 50 participants attended. Through hard work and dedication, Elliot and Amy have grown the event over the years. Now the camp is run two weeks every year with, approximately 120 people attending each week. “We don’t have difficulty filling the camp,” Amy laughs. “We really like our facility and don’t want to outgrow it, but we also like the small community-focused atmosphere.” The camp has also expanded over the years from fiddling, guitar, and piano – fiddling is still the largest section of the camp – to include mandolin, banjo, choir, and cello. “Our original concept hasn’t changed, it was clear what we wanted to do, so our core principals are the same, we’ve just grown. Our staff has changed, we like to keep that dynamic, and as the camp grows we like to rotate the staff looking for musicians to add to our roster of teachers.” The camp draws in people from across Canada to enjoy instruction from some of the best Canadian traditional musicians from coast to coast, including fiddlers who have competed at the Canadian Grand Masters Fiddling Championship. Each night, during the weeklong camp, performances are hosted in the evening. Three nights out of the week instructors perform, the Pig N’ Whistle (a kind of talent showcase for anyone interested), while the Friday night is the student showcase. Although groups only perform one or two songs during the student showcase, they come away with numerous songs and a great experience settled at Kenosee Lake. “This year was super, it was great,” Amy said. “We had a wonderful staff and a lovely time.” One of the great parts about the camp that Amy was pleased to see with two of her past fiddling students, Amy Poirier and Patrick Tinant, was that they had started out as campers learning to fiddle. “It’s really exciting,” she said. “I think the purpose of the camp is to make way for new blood and new instructors, and they are great teachers and players, so we were very happy to have them come out.” “It just shows our hard work over the years and our goals for bringing people up with the ideas and principles of the camp works.” Ultimately Amy says that over the last decade the true heart of what they’re doing at the camp is building a community. “We’re really just building community where volunteerism, looking after each others’ kids, and true rural values in how we eat, play, and interact,” she said. “It’s a microcosm of a lovely culture, of a community that people need. People today are more disconnected and are in need of community. Our instructing is fantastic, but I think it’s the community that brings people back each year. It’s real people, a real community, and that’s not something people are getting on their computer screens, so they’re searching for that.”

Choose Life Ministry offering a Second Chance Shelley Boyes, Director of Choose Life Minsitry, founded the non-profit corporation three years ago as a way to help young women find their way. The Ministry is based on a United States based project, Mercy Ministries, which offers a free six month program to women wanting to turn their lives around and overcome life controlling issues. Currently Choose Life Ministry is working towards refurbishing a house in southeastern Saskatchewan for this purpose and as a way to raise money to do this they are opening a second location of the popular Estevan boutique, Second Chance Thrift Store.

women between the ages of 18 and 29, who are looking to make a change in their life and escape these lifecontrolling issues. The ministry’s five foundational values include love, acceptance, trust, freedom, and excellence. As Boyes pursued her dream of creating a Christian based non-profit corporation to address concerns for young women in need of help, a friend of hers approached Boyes about the possibility of starting a second hand store, which is where the beginnings of Second Chance Thrift Store developed. “A friend came to me with the idea and I said, ‘That’s a great idea, you should do that,’” Boyes explained. “So, in April 2014 we opened the store in Estevan. It’s been very well received and we’ve had a lot of good responses from it, to the point of needing another location.” “Carlyle is a booming metropolis people from here, Redvers, and other

A fine store for females that love to shop!

Carlyle will welcome a new business on Sept. 1 on Main Street; nestled between Michael’s Coﬀee Shop and the RBC, Second Chance Thrift Store will open. “We were overrun with donations in Estevan, so we needed to find another location,” Shelley Boyes, Director of Choose Life Ministry, explained. The store, which is an expansion of one in Estevan, is part of the non-profit organization Choose Life Ministry founded by Boyes in 2012 and their overall focus is to provide assistance to young women in need, oﬀering them a second chance at life, free from life controlling issues. “Three years ago I started a ministry designed to help young girls with life controlling issues like depression, abuse, abuse of drugs and alcohol, anything that’s altering their lives,” Boyes said. The ministry is focused on bringing hope and healing to young

Choose Life Ministry’s Second Chance Thrift Store, which currently is located in Estevan, will be opening a second location on Tuesday, Sept. 1, in Carlyle. The thrift store, which is set up in the style of a boutique, is used as a way to fund the Ministry’s initiative in helping young women overcome life altering obstacles. outlying towns were already coming to Estevan - and there are cottagers, the rural area, and small towns around here as well.” Second Chance Thrift Store is set up slightly diﬀerent than most thrift stores. The items are put on display in a way that feels more like a small boutique than a thrift store, which will have a variety of items available for sale including clothing, footwear, books, movies and music, home décor, kitchen ware, toys and games, fashion accessories, furniture items, and more. “In Estevan and what we plan here is a boutique type of store,” Boyes said. “I’ve had people come in and look around then ask if what we had was really used.” “To start with in Carlyle I will be managing the store, but we’ll be looking to hire for positions as well. I’m hoping people will just come in and show an interest in what we’re doing and from there I can select a few good people.” The store, which will accept second hand donations as well on location, has become a great way to raise money for their mission of helping young women. “When I first started my long range plan was to have a house up and running for women in need within 10 years,” Boyes explained. “I was looking at raising enough to build a new facility for 20 women to stay for six months at a time and re-enter the world. The Board of Directors cleaned up the yard this spring and there’s actually a good house on the property and one of our Board of Directors is a construction worker. So, the large stone house on the property just needs some work, they’ve begun pulling out plaster and insulation in the walls, and his prediction is that next fall we will be able to open our doors.” “It’s all very exciting and it can

be overwhelming some days, but it all seems to be coming together. And next year in the fall is so much sooner than the 10 years I had expected to open it.” Choose Life Ministry is modeled on the United States based Mercy Ministries, which is focused on providing a residential free program for young women. The program will last six months and involves nutrition education, fitness instruction, lifeskills training, and more. “It is a faith based organization,” Boyes says, but she adds, “Over 90 percent of the women who have completed the program at Mercy Ministries have gone on to live productive lives which is basically unheard of, which is why we’re using that model.” Second Chance Thrift Store is expanding, which is exciting for Boyes and her fellow Board of Directors, and is one of the main ways they are funding their project. These funds will need continual fundraising efforts as the house is set-up and once it’s ready funds will be needed for each program ran out of the house as it is offered to young women free of charge. Another fundraiser conducted by Choose Life Ministry is the upcoming fourth annual banquet held at Living Home Community Church in Estevan on Friday, Sept. 18. “It’s an elegant affair,” Boyes explained. “We call it a red carpet, although the carpet is more pink, but it’s a red carpet and people are escorted to their tables, they sit down for a meal, are entertained by a professional comedian, an update is given on the Ministry, and it usually ends with an auction.” For more information visit www. chooselifeministry.ca or stop in at Second Chance Thrift Store in the new Carlyle location.

An special place in Saskatchewan: The Happy Nun garners praise for innovation and unique identity Lynne Bell Observer Staff

The Happy Nun Cafe is something of a local legend, but recently, the Forget cafe and venue for all things cultural is garnering attention from beyond this corner of the province. “Sask Culture had a lunch meeting here,” says chef and co-owner, Katie Vinge. “We also had a visit from Ashlyn George, the Saskatchewanderer. In September, Saskatoon radio personality Kevin Power is coming for one night (Friday, Sept. 11) to record a show for his Saskscapes podcast.” “It’ll be a story slam,” adds Vinge. “The set up on stage will be similar to our open mic nights, except Kevin will be hosting. People can come and have dinner and anyone who wants to can talk and tell a story about Saskatchewan for his radio show.” Saskatchewanderer Ashlyn George is inundated with requests to visit attractions throughout the province, as part of her role with the Ministry of Parks, Culture and Sport. However, she made time to visit the Nun in late July. “It went so well,” says Vinge. “(Ashlyn) was at the Estevan Speedway and she really went out of her way to make time for us. She said visiting The Happy Nun was always on her to-do list, and that she’d heard good things about us from a lot of people.” “We served her Saskatoon Berry gnocchi with saskatoons picked from right outside Forget,” adds Vinge. “She stayed for about three hours, tasting, talking and taking photographs.” Of her weekday afternoon visit to the Nun, George says, “I loved it. I had never been there before, but I have a friend from that area who told me I should check it out. Katie reached out to me in February, and it took me a while to get there, but I’m so glad I did.” “It was a pleasure to go there, and I only wish that I could have gone on a regular night when it was busy with music. That would be even better.” Since Vinge and her partner Riley Riddell purchased The Happy Nun earler this year, the couple has put their stamp on the Nun, while honouring the cafe’s unique identity. “As you know, we purchased the cafe from Don and Shannon Shakotko back in February,” says Vinge. “We’re very fortunate to continue the dream they built. Without them, the Nun wouldn’t even

exist.” “Shannon is still our biggest supporter,” says Vinge. “She still comes to all our shows, and we’re so honoured and grateful.” Along with continuing the Nun’s storied support of live music, Vinge and Riddell have expanded their reach to include as much local culture as they can. “We put out a request to area artists,” says Vinge. “And we were overwhelmed by the response. We’re giving four artists each a spot on the wall to do whatever they want to display and promote their work. It’s not just paintings, it’s whatever they want to showcase, and it will change periodically.” “There are so many interesting people in this town and in this part of the province doing so many interesting things,” adds Vinge. “Musicians, potters and all types of artists and art.” Vinge and Riddell’s monthly menus not only feature food from local producers, Vinge now actively plans her menus around what area fare is available. “There are too many to list,” she says. “But my sister drives our bread delivery from Saltine Bread Company in Regina out every Friday night after she finishes work. We get farm fresh eggs and produce from Fresh From the Garden in Carlyle. I base my menus around what (Fresh From the Garden owner) Lorissa (Stigings) has.” “ I also make and sell pickles at the Nun, and I use Lorissa’s produce,” adds Vinge. Merchandise available at The Happy Nun also includes organic and locally-produced bath and body products from Rosa & Lilium Apothecary, as well as a new line of Happy Nun Merchandise. “We have Happy Nun T-shirts and tote bags for sale,” says Vinge. “And people have been requesting Happy Nun aprons, so we’ll be stocking those, too.” “We’re really happy with how they turned out,” she says. “We used a Regina companyArticulate Ink-and not only were they hand-delivered to us, but Karli

In addition to providing diners with an innovative and locally-sourced dining experience, Forget’s Happy Nun Cafe also features merchandise and edibles that showcase the best from this corner of the province. Recent additions to the Nun’s inventory are tote bags, T-shirts and aprons, manufactured by Regina’s Articulate Ink. Pictured (l-r) are Nun co-owners Riley Riddell and Katie Vinge with Karli from Articulate Ink.

(from Articulate Ink) stopped in for brunch.” For those who want to ‘earn’ their Happy Nun apron, Vinge also oﬀers cooking classes. “They fill up really fast,” she says. “But they’re a lot of fun and we’re happy to work with people. People approached me inquiring about doing some classes, and it grew from there.” “I’ll give them suggestions as to what to make; we book the night, and after everyone’s done cooking, we all sit down for a family-style meal with cocktails or whatever and we enjoy and celebrate what they’ve created.” In addition to its Friday and Saturday night suppers and Sunday brunches, Vinge says the cafe is also proving to be a popular venue for weddings and other special events. “We’ve done weddings and we also have been busy with end-of-summer parties,” she says. “We even have some bookings for Christmas parties already, so we’d love to hear from our customers if they’re thinking of doing a Christmas party with us.” Vinge says that purchasing The Happy Nun has allowed the couple to “combine all of our passionsfor art, music and for building a local food community.” “When Riley and I bought The Happy Nun, we were aware of its reputation. We wanted to step in and uphold it, but also to allow it to continue to grow.” “We saw the potential from the very beginning. It’s a special place and we’re so glad to be a part of it.” The Happy Nun Cafe is located on Main Street in Forget, Sask. For more information, check out: www.happynuncafe.ca , or follow The Happy Nun on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

Saskatchewanderer Ashlyn George spent three hours at The Happy Nun Cafe in Forget, “Tasting, talking and taking photographs,” according to chef Katie Vinge. Vinge served George Saskatoon Berry gnocchi, made with berries picked locally. Of her experience at the nun, George said, “I loved it.”

Concerns arise in Manor over sale of campground Kelly Running Observer Staff

A community meeting was held in Manor on Wednesday, Aug. 19, to address the sale of the campground along Hwy 13 in town. Concerned citizens brought up their issues surrounding the sale of land, which was approved on April 15, 2015. The campground had not been in use for approximately a year and a half due to upgrades needed to the washroom facilities as stipulated by Public Health according to Manor’s councillors. Councillors decided at the April 15 meeting when approached by Sheldon Akins to therefore sell the land as Akins has returned to Manor with hopes of opening a carpentry business on the west end of the lot, according to minutes from the meeting. The minutes also state that the shop would be 130 ft by 80 ft and that Akins would ensure there is no alteration of water flow at the site through any building he does. If Akins does not complete the project he has proposed within one year then the Village of Manor will regain possession of the land. Issues arose in the community and area after discovering the sale of the land. The sale was made for $10,000 to the Mayor’s son. The minutes of the meeting do state that the Mayor excused herself from the meeting before discussion and the sale was decided upon, but some community members see this as a conflict of interest regardless of whether the

Mayor was present or not. Another issue people had regarding the sale included the lack of advertising regarding the sale of the land. Although the village does have a bylaw stating that the only form of public notice needs to be displayed in the town oﬃce for seven days, The Municipalities Act does state in Section 48 (2) that “if a council wishes to dispose of municipal lands used for park purposes, the council must give public notice of its intention to do so before authorizing the disposal.” Members from the community also drew attention to the cairn that is sitting in the park, which is dedicated to the pioneers. For this reason members of the community are saying that the land the cairn is sitting on was dedicated as well, which means the cairn cannot be moved from its location. According to council one of the council members voted via conference call regarding sale of the land, which is why his name reads as seconding the motion to sell the lot although the individual is also listed as absent from the meeting. Due to a lack of mention of this in the meeting minutes of April 15, 2015, people were questioning the reliability of the motion to sell the land. The public meeting on Aug. 19, however, saw a rebuttal from other community members and council defending the sale of the land, stating that an individual is planning on building a business on the site and should be welcomed to the community. As a business owner in the community he will be paying taxes and potentially giving back to the village in other ways through volunteerism. The individual should therefore be welcomed as the site was the only one conducive to his business venture considering large trucks will be going in and out of the site. By having easy highway access, this

prevents trucks from travelling into town to another location on the village’s roads. With the title already having been passed onto Akins for the agreed upon amount the community must work together to find a solution to the concerns presented. Some of the community wishes to see that campground remain, others hope council will set up a new campground on the rodeo grounds, while others still do not see the point of developing a campground at all and are simply happy to see a business established in a community that has seen emigration. At their core each one wants the best for Manor and simply have diﬀerent ideas of what that is. Following the presentations and rebuttals from the floor, the Village of Manor decided to take all of the information regarding the sale to their lawyer and would look into solutions surrounding the issue.

Standing on the campground site is a cairn which was erected in commemoration of the 75th anniversary of the Village of Manor and dedicated to the memory of the pioneers of Manor and District. The sale of the campground was therefore surprising to a few community members who thought the land was a dedicated historic site.

Quote of the Week . . . “It’s not so much what we know as how well we use what we know.” ― Ernesta Procope

A fun way to spend a Sunday

The other day we decided to host a volleyball camp, a first for us, for youth in grades four to six. With a lot of sports, kids get to start playing them right away, but for some reason volleyball isn’t started until grade six or seven, usually. In my small school growing up we took our grades four Kelly Running to seven to simply form a team Observer Staff and we played against a couple of teams, usually grade six and seven from Shaunavon, and a team like ours developed out of Cadillac, too. So, grade four isn’t too young to begin and we went over our plan, had it all set out, and we brought in some of our club volleyball players to help. Over the last year our 15U team worked on perfecting skills and they facilitated the drills for us at the camp, helping identify and correct what the younger kids were doing. It was a lot of fun watching the Vipers interact with the young players. The kids in grade four to six were eager to learn and were finding a lot of success during learning the skill as well as during the fun drill/games that followed. The young players caught onto things quickly, soaking everything up and wanting to do it right, one even said she didn’t want to create any bad habits so to just keep coming to her with anything we saw. She was already determined to get things right and do the absolute best that she could, she was going to be a volleyball player and wanted to perfect her skills already. It turned out to be the perfect set up. We lowered the net to a height that they could find success at, made courts a little smaller, and only had three or four on a team with a Viper on to help them out. I was quite impressed by the young kids participating at the camp, but was very much impressed with our Vipers as well. They got to see a bit of a diﬀerent side of volleyball, by getting to be a coach. They were patient and would help correct things in the kindest way possible. The girls were in fact the perfect leaders to have in there and the younger ones were thinking quite highly of them at the end of the day. Afterwards one of the Vipers stopped at Dairy Queen in Carlyle on her way home and one of the young camp-goers was there. When the Viper said, “Hi,” to the young girl, there was a huge smile on the young girl’s face. So, I think it was quite rewarding and a great experience for the older volleyball players to be able to help out and share their knowledge with the younger ones. And they all had a lot of fun doing it. Also, because we had six Vipers helping each one had two or three camp goers to work with, plus Eugene, Eric, and myself got to walk around and help with whatever we saw so the kids attending were very close to getting one on one instruction, which youth can see huge strides in a very short amount of time if they’re not lost in large groups. It was a great way to introduce younger players to the game, have our Vipers (who are great role models) be in a position to help those kids, and for a fun way of just enjoying a Sunday. Although you’re tired by the end of a day like that, it’s always a lot of fun to see all the smiles.

They live in this world... and it’s real

It’s a phrase that causes the little hairs on my arms to bristle. It takes various forms since the wording is somewhat dependant upon the situation but essenShelley Luedtke tially sounds like this: “Just wait ‘til you get into the real world” or “they’re in for a shock when they enter the real world.” We use the phrase ‘real word’ as if there is some line of demarcation over which we must pass and at that moment the world is real. What was it before? A fantasy? Our imagination? Of course it is primarily used to refer to the working world and is a statement often directed at students, cautioning them that life is going to get harder once they are out of school and in the work force. Life changes for many young people to be sure after graduation, and the schedules under which they function are diﬀerent. The time spent with friends may be more limited but the sense of independence may be greater. Some choose to further their education, others to travel or volunteer, while others will look for a job. Is it only the newly employed that have entered the ‘real world’? What about those taking on the task of challenging course loads or going to parts of the world few others have seen? The reality of what they will be asked to do and how successful outcomes will be judged is very real indeed. If we associate being in the real world as only involving the tasks of earning a living, paying bills and providing for others, (tasks that are of course very real and very important) it nonetheless is a limited vision and serves to invalidate someone’s experience if it is simply to be defined by their ability to earn a pay cheque. What message does that send to someone who has exited the work force by choice or by circumstance? The intimation that the experience of children going to school is somehow separate from reality is to imply that being a student is somehow ideal, idyllic and free of the stresses of the work world. If only. Students in some regions are heading back to school in a matter of days. In other places and

other nations they have been back for a while. Depending upon the neighborhood and the city in which they live they will encounter any number of things: run-down buildings, overcrowding, metal detectors, armed security guards and gangs. If our children aren’t encountering that we can be grateful--but not complacent. Two years ago a family in New York City was thrilled that through the process of a lottery, their daughter had been accepted into a school outside of their neighborhood. They were relieved to know she would no longer be vulnerable to the potential violence she had experienced through her first 8 years of school. However, in a follow up of these students two years later she said that although “the textbooks are newer” and the “halls are cleaner” the intimidation and bullying she had endured were things she was unprepared for. In other places students will be walking into newer buildings, spacious classrooms, and, by implication, brighter futures. The challenges they face are quite diﬀerent but still...very real. They experience such extreme academic pressure to succeed and to make the most of their opportunities that a stumble in their performance is an unacceptable setback to the success they are told they need to pursue. It’s real. It’s the real world as they know it to be right now and to diminish their excitement, anticipation, trepidation and fear as some sort of stopping-oﬀ point disconnected from any so-called real world is to do them a disservice. Just as real though, are the people who will be helping them navigate those pressures, and they, along with those students need our interest and encouragement. Whether someone is a child, parent, employee, retiree, teenager, senior citizen, single, married, teacher or student, the world they are making their way in, is in every sense of things…real. The pressure to fit in, the pressure to withstand bullying, and the pressure to perform are most assuredly very real and it is not a stretch to realize that sometimes the most daring thing a child can do is open the door to their school and walk in. That’s my outlook.

Seeing things differently . . .

Forever is a long time...

Prime Ministerial power in Canada Lynne Bell Observer Staff

Kelly Running Observer Staff

Bring on the change. In Canada politicians, namely our prime ministers, can basically be in power forever, well, in a sense. In Canada the prime minister does not have a fixed term that they serve for. They are the premier minister of the Crown and are serving in the name of Queen Elizabeth II. A prime minister can serve for their lifetime although a limit of five years has been placed on them through the constitution. While reading through what exactly the prime minister position entails it appears as though they do serve for life because even after those five years are up, they can maintain their position as prime minister at different levels. If their party has a majority then they are prime minister, if the opposition wins a majority then the prime minister can resign or be dismissed by the governor general. However, if the prime minister’s party obtains a minority while the opposition wins a minority they can keep office by forming a coalition with other minority parties. So, even if a different party obtains a plurality – more seats than any other party but still a minority – a coalition can be made which keeps the prime minister in that position. This seems like an awful lot of power to be giving to someone within a democracy. We already have people serving for life, our monarchy, but why should someone that is part of a democratic system gain almost a lifetime position? This doesn’t make sense to me. In the United States, which trust me is far from perfect but they have presidents who serve for twoterms of four years, although there is a clause that allows for more. Franklin D. Roosevelt served three full terms. During his time the world was in disarray dealing with the repercussions of the depression as well as navigating the United States through World War II. Four years after his three terms, Roosevelt actually ran a fourth time and gained office, though he passed away shortly after due to a cerebral hemorrhage. Change, however, can be a very good thing at the right time and it should not be a lifetime position running the country, like it kind of is in Canada, unless a different party earns a majority or a coalition is not struck up between parties as I explained above. Some would likely argue that it’s the party you’re voting on and not the prime minister, so why does it really matter who has the title and if it is for life. Over the years looking at Canadian prime ministers and U.S. presidents, the thing is, each individual has different focuses and will bring about different kinds of change even if they are representing the same party. They each have their own agendas and beliefs because let’s face it, they’re human. So, limiting their terms to say six years as opposed to a lifetime might be beneficial as it would allow them to accomplish what they have in mind for the country and then the next person with their party can be brought in, because despite being part of the same party people view different issues as the ones that need to be addressed. By limiting the position of prime minister this would likely benefit the country because you don’t want a country run by “yes men,” because then a democracy develops into a power grab for a party headed by one individual. And because you just have to be 18-years-old to run, a lifetime could last awhile.

With federal elections looming in both Canada and in the U.S., Kelly and I decided to examine the term limits that each country’s leader is bound by-that is, in Canada, the Prime Minister is not bound by any limits on how many terms he or she can serve, while in America, all presidents are restricted to serving a maximum of two terms of four years each. While researching this column (and frantically harkening back to ancient Social Studies classes), I was reminded that the office of Prime Minister in this country allows this particular elected official to wield an extraordinary amount of power. As I’m sure you all know, The Queen is Canada’s Head of State, the Governor General is her official representative, and of course, the Prime Minister is this country’s elected head of government. The power of the Prime Minister’s office extends to many jurisdictions and is not subject to as many checks and balances as one would think. For most intents and purposes, the Prime Minister’s influence extends to the ruling party’s Members of Parliament. This means that any bills that are introduced and passed into law are almost certain to have the approval of the PM. The Prime Minister also is the chair of (and appoints) the Cabinet, which is at best, is a sounding board and at worst, a group of yespeople who agree with any decision(s) their leader makes. In addition, Canadian Prime Ministers appoint the Governor-General, members of the Senate, Supreme Court Justices (and other officers of federal courts), ambassadors, board members and presidents of Crown corporations, as well as members of other federal boards that include: the refugee board, the parole board and the labour relations board, among others.

Canada’s PM is also the Commander-inChief of all branches of our country’s military and can appoint members of the military’s senior hierarchy, including the country’s Chief of Defence Staﬀ. So it’s not surprising that the sitting Prime Minister can also call an election at a time that is usually most convenient for their (ruling) party. My first impulse upon rediscovering these facts-via my school-starved memory and Google-was to argue in favour of an Americanstyle, two-term limit for our most powerful elected leader. But when put in practice, the U.S. system of two-term limits for presidents isn’t perfect, either. During their second term, presidents have been known to aggressively push through legislation before the clock runs out, fundraise for (vanity) legacy projects-such as presidential libraries, engage in retirement planning on a big scale, or simply, seemingly phone in their second serving term on the job. In most western democracies-like Canada and the U.S.-changing such an ingrained part of our electoral system(s) is a herculean task, and would be probably more expensive and time-consuming trouble than it’s worth. So what’s a Canadian citizen to do? Well, one thing Kelly and I do agree on regarding this issue is that we are indeed privileged-as citizens of this country-to have the right to vote, regardless of when or how often elections are called. Voting is a privilege that too many of our fellow citizens of the world lack and as citizens of a western democracies, both Canadians and Americans-as voters-still control the outcome of our countries’ elections, no matter when or how often they are called. So please, on Tuesday, Oct. 19-vote!

White Bear’s top golfers win 2015 Ryder Cup challenge Lynne Bell Observer Staff

Staff photo by Lynne Bell

The top golfers from White Bear Lake Resort were the winners of the coveted Ryder Cup 2015 edition. Pictured are: Front row, l-r: C.J. (Clarence) Gelowitz, Dean Lequyer, Gord Jarvis and Dallas Lequyer. Middle row, l-r: Ian Kellin, Skye Maxie, Brett Standingready, Rod Neivadomy, Tyler Mryglod and Shawn Pollock.Back row, l-r: Cory Pinacie, Travis Mryglod, Brad Mryglod and Gord Petker (Missing: Terry Littlechief).

The team from White Bear Lake Golf Course won the coveted 2015 Ryder Cup Challenge over Team Kenosee during the 15th edition of the Ryder Cup challenge held at both courses on Aug. 22 and 23. The annual competition between the top golfers from Golf Kenosee and White Bear Lake Golf Course is in its 15th year. This year’s edition of the Ryder Cup challenge went ahead, in spite of a rainy, cold and windy start at White Bear Lake Golf Course on Saturday, Aug. 22-the same type of weather that derailed last year’s event when Golf Kenosee’s course was flooded. Although play stopped after one round, both teams enjoyed a full day of competition under sunnier skies at Golf Kenosee on Sunday. Mike Bokitch, Pro Shop and tournament manager at Golf Kenosee has been with the Ryder Cup Challenge since it began 15 years ago and says that the event also serves as a reminder of the quality of the two golf courses. “I’ve worked at both courses. They’re resort courses, but they’re very well-maintained. Both courses’ superintendents are excellent. That’s the key.” “We get a lot of local golfers and we also get golfers from Regina, Saskatoon, Minot, Winnipeg and other closer centres such as Melville and Yorkton.” “We always plan this tournament for the same weekend every year, so the guys-especially those who are

farmers-can take part.” White Bear golf pro-and coach of the winning team- Gord Petker says, “All of the members from both clubs should be very proud of themselves. Both sides were great competitors and they played through both days through conditions that were less than ideal.” “I’d like to thank both clubs for continuing to compete in the Ryder Cup.” The friendly competition between the two courses is modelled on the Ryder Cup, which is also held annually and features a showdown between the best golfers from Europe and the U.S. The local event not only marks the end of another golf season, it also raises the profile of the two championship courses in this area, which are located minutes from each other. This year’s Ryder Cup winners from White Bear Lake Resort Golf Club are: Cory Pinacie, Brett Standingready, Skye Maxie, Terry Littlechief, Travis Mryglod, Tyler Mryglod, Brad Mryglod, Shawn Pollock, Dallas Lequyer, Dean Lequyer, Gord Jarvis, Ian Kellin, Rod Neivadomy, Gord Petker and C.J. Gelowitz. Golf Kenosee’s Ryder Cup 2015 team members are: Carson Harcourt, Rich Halberg, David Balfour, Kelly Currie, Dee Meszaros, Paul Grimes, Ben Brown, Brian Dean, Clarke Lemieux, Kent Sauter, Sheldon Warner, Mark Frietag, Justin James, Mark Cudmore and Don Evans, Captain.

Arcola street dance and slo pitch tourney benefits Mac Theatre

Even though the rain returned for a second year, the Arcola Street Dance and Slo Pitch Tournament was a success, as members of the community supported the weekend’s events in Arcola on Aug. 22 and 23. Pictured are members of the Bad Eggs, who earned the $500 slo pitch prize. Team coach Eugene Brown said of the weekend’s play, “It was cold, wet, miserable, but fun.” Organizer Cheryl Bell of Arcola said, “This year, the proceeds are going towards the Optimist Club’s makeover of the Mac Theatre. They’ve done such a great job with the inside of the theatre and we’d like to do our part to make the outside just as great.” Lynne Bell Observer Staff

The world isn’t black and white. So, why is your ad?

Pass the popcorn. I swear, this 2015 season for the Saskatchewan Roughriders is like a football movie. You know, like Remember the Titans, Rudy, Any Given Sunday, When The Game Stands Tall and all the rest. Is it a good movie, a great movie, or a bad one? I don’t know. You’ve got to watch it to the end to see how it plays out. The Roughriders are 0-8 following their most recent loss, 34-31 at home to the Calgary Stampeders on Saturday before a sellout crowd of 33,427 at historic Mosaic Stadium. It was the franchise’s first sellout in almost a year and proof positive that the league’s best fanbase has not given up on its team. However, let’s be honest, an 0-8 team has never rallied to make the playoffs in CFL history. That’s not to say it won’t happen, and that’s why you can’t leave the theatre just yet. And my gosh it’s been a thriller! The games themselves have had your heart racing right down to the final play, for the most part. Last year when the club rattled off seven straight victories, fans complained that the games were too low-scoring and boring. Which would you rather have? And outside of the games, there have been enough head-scratching situations to fill out a screenplay. You know the ones. The ones that make you pinch the bridge of your nose between your eyes, shake your head and say, “Did that really just happen?” Like for instance what happened last Tuesday when the Roughriders reconvened on the practice field for the first time after their bye week. I wrote in this space what was required was a fresh start. Wipe the slate. Forget the prior seven weeks. And then during the team’s stretching period, before practice even began, running back Anthony Allen and defensive line coach Mike Sinclair got into a heated spat over something really small. Sinclair reportedly needled Allen about not playing and the player went off. He had to be escorted to the locker room and didn’t return. So much for the fresh start. And then on the radio postgame show following Saturday’s loss to

Calgary, our defensive star Marshay Green - a defensive back who spent four years in the NFL with Arizona and Indianapolis - seemed to be crying during the interview with us. “I just want to say that I wouldn’t want to be playing for any other coach, any other staff, or go out there with any other team than this team,” said the Bastrop, Louisiana product with his voice cracking. “We’re doing everything that we can. Everything possible. We come here every day to work and do everything the coach asks us to do. But man, it’s just so unfortunate that the ball isn’t bouncing our way at the end of the game.” I looked at radio colour commentator Carm Carteri in bewilderment. “Is he crying?” I asked. Our producer confirmed that indeed, Marshay Green had been moved to tears. Good Lord! That’s a first. This stuff would have Steven Spielberg drooling. That is, if he were into sports movies. So miraculously, despite eight consecutive weeks of losing, the Saskatchewan Roughriders are still in the race due to the fact division rivals Winnipeg and B.C. only have three wins each as we approach the halfway turn. It’s setting up for a ridiculously implausible finish. Who would believe they’d ever make the playoffs, let alone make something happen after that? Actually it doesn’t matter who does as long as the Green & White believe it can happen. And they do. “Nobody’s hanging their head,” Green said between tears. “We still believe in each other. We just have to go back to the drawing board.” The path to that drawing board has been worn out so far this season but head coach Corey Chamblin continues to tinker and fiddle with his roster which produced generally good results on Saturday except for the final score. Is it coming? The “whodunit”style ending? Maybe. “Keep chopping,” advised Marshay. “Keep doing everything we’re doing now. Coming to practice, watching film, and getting better in every aspect of the game.”

Rough N’ Ready in Stoughton with the New Hope Horse Club on Sept. 5

Archive photo

Despite a little rain, the sun came out last year to ensure another successful Rough N’ Ready Roughstock event in Stoughton. This year’s rodeo will be hosted on Sept. 5 at 5 p.m. Kelly Running Observer Staff

It’s that time of year again, the New Hope Horse Club is presenting its fourth annual Rough N’ Ready Roughstock Rodeo in Stoughton on Sept. 5 at 5 p.m. Located at the Stoughton Fairgrounds

there’s fun and activities for all ages. This year tickets can be found in advance at the Stoughton post oﬃce. Advance tickets are $10 for adults instead of $15, while youth tickets are $5, and 12 and under are free. Tickets are also available at the gate the day of the event. Roughstock is being supplied by Prime Time Rodeos, owned by Jim Lawrence of Kennedy. Events during the rodeo include mutton bustin’ and a new event this year, wild pony races. “We’ve added a new event this year, wild pony races,” DeeAnna Lyke, one of the organizers, explained. “We’ve had wild horse racing the last two years where three adults attempt to get on a wild horse and ride it across the finish line. The pony races are for kids seven to 14 and they’ll attempt to get on a miniature version of a horse and ride it.” Competition will heat up with barrel racing, wild horse races, steer riding, saddle broncs, bareback, and bull riding. There will be food vendors on site and kids’ activities available from 4-7 p.m. including bouncy castles, pony rides, and henna tattoos. A beer gardens will also be set up under the big tent as well, which is located next to the corral. So, come rain or shine the show will go on. A fundraiser for the New Hope Horse Club there will also be 50/50 tickets being sold during the event and there will also be a draw for a chance to win a pair of tickets to the 2015 Labour Day Classic. On site there will also be a family cabaret, which is featuring The Otherz. “They’re a country rock band,” Lyke stated. “They actually were the closing band at Craven this year all three nights.” Seeing success over the years with the event has led the New Hope Horse Club to continue hosting the roughstock rodeo as a fundraiser for their club. With numerous volunteers and sponsors the

evening is all about community and community entertainment. Last year competitors in the Rough N’ Ready event participated from across the prairies, putting on a fantastic show as they attempted to ride Prime Time Rodeo’s best. Eﬀorts by the New Hope Horse Club over the years have seen improvements to the grounds. Most recently they were able to upgrade the arena by purchasing and setting up lights, which was a large project.

Forty-five players from 21 communities attended the Redcoat Rebels 2015 Summer Skills Development Camp Aug. 21 and 22 in Carlyle. Coach Mickey Adams is pictured mentoring young volleyball players during the two-day event. Sixteen-year-old attendee Carlie Standingready of White Bear First Nations says of Adams: “I’d recommend his camps to anyone, even if you aren’t able to play on his team. . . . he’s one of the reasons I started with volleyball.” Lynne Bell Observer Staff

The Redcoat Rebels volleyball team hosted 45 players from 21 Saskatchewan communities at their 2015 Summer Skills Development Camp, held Aug. 21 and 22 at Carlyle’s Gordon F. Kells High School. “We’ve got two groups aged 16 and 18 and what gets me is how far some of them have come.” says Rebels coach Mickey Adams. Players from Arcola, Carlyle, Carnduﬀ, Cowessess First Nation, Esterhazy, Fort Qu’Appelle, Kennedy, Montmarte, Moosomin, Ochapawace

First Nation, Regina, Regina Beach, Rhein, Rocanville, Rosetown, Saskatoon, Spy Hill, Wawota, White Bear First Nations, Whitewood and Yorkton attended the two-day event, in an eﬀort to hone their volleyball skills. “This isn’t a tryout,” says Adams. “But as for playing for the Rebels, we’ll take them from anywhere. It’s just that some of these kids live too far away to regularly make it to practices and games. But we’re happy they’ve joined us here today to develop their skills and to learn more about the game.” Sixteen-year-old Carlie Standingready

from White Bear First Nations says that even if a player can’t play for one of Adams’ teams, “I’d recommend his camps to anyone, even if you aren’t able to play on his team.” “He’ll tell you what you did wrong, what you did right, and you’ll walk away with proof that you’ve improved as a player, because what he says is right.” “He’s one of the reasons I started with volleyball,” adds Standingready. “He’s really a tough trainer. He knows his stuﬀ, he knows what’s right and wrong and he’s serious about the sport.” “He’s tough on you, but he builds up

go girls – what a goal that your team achieved – Congratulations to all. A note of interest – Marcy’s Diner will be closed at 2:00 pm on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturday beginning on August 24 until further notice. Best bet is to check with the restaurant (443-2567) to make sure that it is open before coming if you’re thinking of having an evening out. Harvesting was moving right along with no problems – well that’s not altogether true a break down sometimes puts a stop in it, but this blankety blank rain – it isn’t appreciated at all at this time of the year. Talking of rain showers – we only received about 1.5 inches at here, few miles north just under an inch and few miles south over 2 inches – now talk about variation – just so unpredictable and the worst of it they saying more rain on Friday again, gee sure hope they’re wrong. “Rain – Rain go away”! Summer is almost over – only a week of holidays left to enjoy then back to school on September 1 for four days and then a long weekend (Labour day-Sept. 7). During these last few hot days the swimming pool has sure been a popular place for the young to enjoy – Alida’s last day at the pool is August 30 and I do believe they have things planned so if possible do try to attend and let’s hope the weatherman co-operates. Do enjoy these “Last Days of Summer”! Please do keep the calls (306-443-2496), e-mails (g.cowan@ sasktel.net) or texts (306-485-8561) coming in – I appreciate you taking the time in keeping me up to date with your news.

Congratulations to Stephanie Struble and Blake Weatherald who were married at Kenosee Lake on August 22nd. A large crowd enjoyed the reception and social evening at the Wawota Town Hall. Jean Bogner has returned from a two week holiday, visiting family in Regina, as well as in Burnaby BC where she visited her daughter, Laurie, granddaughter, Jen (and Josh) and great granddaughter, Ezri.

They did some sightseeing and visited with Phyl and Gerry Myers at Kingston,Monique’s sister, Nicole and Daniel Villeneuve at Aylmer and sister, Louise and Brian Campeau, at Gatineau.This was in celebration of their 32 wedding anniversary. Suzanne & George Eisler attended his sister Alda & Henry Kerner’s 55 wedding anniversary in Bow Island Ab, a special Birthday in Winnipeg, and her sister Angele & Norman Mckenzie’s 50th anniversary at Kenosee Lake.They then joined Kim & Rob Ursell & family and Norm Eisler and family for a week of camping at Cypress Hills. Kim & Rob came back to Wawota for a week, taking in the RCMP Musical Ride. Norm, Sequoia & Oliver Eisler spent the last week visiting family and friends in Wawota & Redvers. So many books, so little time. I just recently read the book,”Leaving Berlin” by Joseph Kanon. It is the story of a German citizen who, after 15 years in the United States returns to Germany to spy on the Russians. Kanon’s writing is similar to John Le Carres but with fewer characters and a plot that is easier to follow. I really enjoyed this book and will looking for more of Kanon’s books in the future.

Can you understand me? By Linda Wegner “Excuse me, sir,” I spoke to the man pushing his buggy in the dairy aisle. “I love languages and I couldn’t help but overhear you folks,” I said. “What language were you speaking?” I admit a wave of embarrassment swept over me when they both smiled and he responded, “it was French”. “French,” I said to myself, “why didn’t I know that? I studied that language for years!”. I’ve put it down to the possibility that they spoke a slightly diﬀerent dialect or, as a last resort, to the fact that my hearing isn’t quite as good as it once was. In any case I put on a great show and we conversed for a few minutes en français. It felt good. Earlier this morning I’d greeted a member of our congregation in my limited German vocabulary. We chatted for a while and I felt rather pleased with myself that although English is my mother

tongue, I’m not totally restricted to that mode of communication. As I’ve already stated, I truly enjoy listening to languages; understanding everything that is being said doesn’t even matter that much because no translation is required to grasp the power of a smile or the pain of shattered dreams. In a world where technology facilitates global communication, too many voices go unheard; disguised as successful and in control, too many broken hearts struggle in silence. No matter what the language, hurting people need someone to love them unconditionally. When I was growing up the message of the church I attended was that God was primarily interested in my “being good” and my job was to live up to that criteria. Thankfully I’ve learned that the central message of the gospel, in any language, is that God so loved the world, He sent Jesus Christ to impart the message of salvation.

NEWS

Robots in agriculture By Calvin Daniels The idea of robotics in agriculture has long intrigued me. It is an area I have long anticipated will change how farmers farm, although in some respects the impact to-date has been less than I would have anticipated had I been asked even a decade ago. However, I suspect we are now very much on the cusp of some dramatic innovation in terms of robotic farming. That is not surprising in the sense we have seen robots used in manufacturing for many years now, albeit they grow more sophisticated all the time. They tend to work well in an assembly line atmosphere with repetitive work elements handled by a computer program, whether that is welding spots on an automobile frame, or carrying out elements of dairy milking parlours. But, robots are now becoming more advanced, meaning they are no longer restricted to stationary work stations. Movement of robots is growing exponentially and that is opening up new opportunities to employ the technology. We see automobiles now able to park themselves. Drivers simply give over control of the car to a computer and in the broadest terms the car becomes robotic. While questions regarding driver insurance and liability would seem to still be defined, it is not hard to envision a car being able to drive itself down the street to the grocery store, or workplace, with the former driver simply becoming a passenger. It is likely the technology is close, if not already possible. We have also heard the desire by Amazon.com to turn to flying drones for package delivery. While that might be more crystal-balling at this point than a viable option, such drones would need to be highly autonomous in their ac-

tions to be useable for such deliveries. Of course what makes both selfdriving cars and delivery drones more reality than science fiction is the element of global positioning technology. The use of GPS is something farmers are more than a little familiar with as it is a key element of precision farming in terms of spraying and fertilizing to the specific requirements of specific areas of a field. Moving forward it is going to be GPS in tandem with robotics which has farm machinery crawling across fields monitored by a farmer sitting at a desk at home. Today we see the ability of a farmer to utilize a driverless tractor pulling a grain cart across a field, its movement controlled by a computer on a combine, keeping the cart on a synchronous path. The combine itself can actually travel down a field following a swath with little, or no steering from the driver. The next steps in technology will take operators out of the tractor seat and into a role of monitor, pulling the plug from afar if a problem arises. With farm employees harder to find based on the increasing tech training they require to operate modern farm equipment, and the costs associated with such labour, robotics machinery is going to find eager tech-adopters among farmers. The cost saving in terms of labour and the ability of machines to operate longer hours because operator fatigue is eliminated as a limiting factor make the upcoming developments big in terms of farm eﬃcient and bottom line. The farm may not seem like the most likely place for robots to get an early foothold outside a factory setting, but that is very likely to be the case.

To encourage more people to experience the many benefits that recreational fishing has to oﬀer, the Ministry of Environment designates one weekend each year when you may fish without an angling licence. This year, Saskatchewan’s Free Fishing weekends will take place on August 29 - 30, 2015 and February 13 - 15, 2016 during National Fishing week.

Please note that regular angling limits and all other sport fishing laws remain in eﬀect. Free Fishing Weekend does not apply in national parks, and anyone planning to take fish out of the province must purchase a licence. Anglers on Lac La Ronge must have a free endorsement, available at local merchants. More information about National Fishing week can be found at: http://www.catchfishing.com/
