Motocross circuit stops in Carlyle

The Southeast Corner Racing Circuit (SCRC) competed in Carlyle on Saturday, July 23.

Kelly Running Observer Staff

Engines revved, dirt flew, and riders soared over the weekend at the Bowen Rekken Memorial Motocross Track where riders with the Southeast Corner Racing Circuit (SCRC) competed in Carlyle on Saturday, July 23.

Practice began at 9, with races following at 10:30 a.m.

The SCRC is a circuit focused on southeastern Saskatchewan drawing racers from both Saskatchewan and Manitoba to compete. Races are held in Estevan, Oxbow, Weyburn, and Carlyle throughout the summer and fall.

Competitors at the event included young, novice riders to veteran riders as well as a women’s class. For many, winning was the goal, but for the

BIG

majority who participated, a chance to learn and improve their skills was enjoyed amongst their motocross family in the first race of the circuit’s season.

The next action for the SCRC will see races in Estevan on Aug. 4, Regina Sept 10 and 11, back to Carlyle on Sept. 17, and finally to Oxbow for a double header on Sept 24 and 25.

The Carlyle course was

established 10 years ago by friends and family of Bowen Rekken after his passing. Bowen had loved the sport and his friends wanted to do something in his memory. Approaching his parents Kelly and Susan about the idea the track soon became a reality with dedication to the project by those involved.

Moose Mountain Provincial Park rolls out ATV pilot project A pilot project aimed at recreational all-terrain vehicle (ATV) riders was launched earlier this summer at Moose Mountain Provincial Park and will continue until Labour Day. As part of the project, ATV users are required to bring their recreational vehicles into the park by trailer and proceed to the Visitor Centre, located on the main floor of the Chalet.

There, they will receive a map of an approved riding route, a pamphlet outlining the rules for riding in the park, and an acknowledgment form which they must sign in order to receive a 2016 Trail Permit at no charge. Moose Mountain Provincial Park manager, Joan Adams says:

“We are trying to get the word out about what the park has to offer, as well as ensuring responsible recreational riding within Moose Mountain Provincial Park.”

MMPP’s ATV trails were officially opened on July 15 by the province’s Minister of Parks, Culture and Sports, Mark Docherty, as part of capital projects aimed at enhancing visitor experience in the park.

The Saskatchewan government contributed $125,000 to the enhancement of the park’s ATV trails. This amount was matched by the National Trails Coalition, for a total investment of $250,000.

The ATV trails are located in MMPP’s back

country and include some of the park’s existing snowmobile trails.

“It’s a 47 km ride,” says Adams. “ATVs have to be trailered to the unloading area, just west of Little Kenosee. The ride is a loop that starts on Centre Road as far west as the Bennett Lake Trail and south to the Horse Lake Trail. It’s clearly marked on the map we give riders when they stop in to the Visitors’ Centre for their permits.”

“Moose Mountain Provincial Park has been a designated ATV park for 10-plus years,” she adds. “And maybe we haven’t done a good job of getting the word out.

This pilot project is an opportunity to create educational awareness for recreational ATVers about what we’re offering here.”

Riding in a provincial park comes with responsibilities, says Adams. “Moose Mountain Provincial Park is an anomaly. It’s a forest, surrounded by prairie.”

“The acknowledgement form that riders sign in order to receive their permits outlines the rules and responsibilities associated with riding an all-terrain vehicle in Moose Mountain Provincial Park,” she adds. “Some of the rules are self-explanatory: having a valid driver’s license and the necessity of having third-party liability insurance to ride on Crown land and to be able to produce a copy of your insurance if a peace and/or enforcement officer asks to see it. And of course, children between the ages of 12 and 16 must be supervised by a person who has held a continuous and valid license for one year.”

protection, long pants long sleeves and boots.”

“But other rules are aimed at protecting the park and not all ATV riders may be aware of them,” says Adams. “Allterrain vehicles must be washed and clean prior to riding in the park. This is to avoid the spread of noxious weeds and/or invasive species.

If someone has been riding outside the park and brings something into the park on their ATV, that can be a problem for us. We don’t want to have to be looking at eradication of something that is harmful to the park’s ecosystem.”

“Prevention is always best. Even if someone’s building a home here, the construction equipment has to be washed and cleaned before it’s brought into the park.”

“ATVs are only permitted on designated trails within the park and we ask that riders travel responsibly,” she adds.

“Stay on the hard-packed trail surface and go over, not around, obstacles to avoid widening the trails. And don’t ride if the trails are wet and muddy. Weather conditions can change abruptly and the park reserves the right to close any and all trails without prior notice.”

“What we’re trying to do is promote a whole cultural shift in thinking,” says Adams.

“We’re offering people a chance to access the back country in the park that would normally be inaccessible with a vehicle.”

“But we’re balancing that with the fact that responsible riding will help to ensure the future of recreational ATV use in the park, and to ensure the park is protected for the enjoyment of everyone.”

“It’s a privilege-not a right-to ride in Moose Mountain Provincial Park.”

Podcast With A Purpose: Will Sinclair’s ‘The Real Truth About You’ Lynne Bell

Observer Staff

Will Sinclair’s self-proclaimed “passion for people” is going global, as his podcast series, ‘The Real Truth About You’ has already been downloaded and streamed by listeners in Canada, Australia, Brazil, Colombia, Finland, Italy, the U.S. and the UK, within weeks of its inception.

“I have this passion for people to follow their passion-whether they’re 80 or eight,” says Sinclair.

“The purpose of the podcast is to help listeners be the best they can be. And the question isn’t ‘What are you going to be?’ but ‘Are you all you can be?’”

The Kenosee Lake resident started the project partly in response to a crisis in his own life-a diagnosis of esophageal cancer-and the surgery, chemotherapy and radiation treatments that followed.

“I started the podcast as part of my recovery,” says a cancer-free Sinclair. “It was theraputic for me. It was one year ago-on July 12-when I had my surgery.” “ I could do the podcast with just an iPhone or an iPad and it really worked with how I was feeling physically during my treatments and recovery.”

“I started the podcast partly to get over a fear of (public) speaking-but I also really wanted to do it, in spite of that fear. One thing I did was to take an

online course with (broadcaster) Larry King,” adds Sinclair. “He said the most important thing in any conversation or interview is honesty. That is, to be yourself.”

“Another thing to remember when you’re talking to people is to bring them into the moment,” he adds. “I don’t always know what my guests are going to say, but I try to treat our conversations like one you’d have at a backyard barbecue.”

“I can only be myself and the only way to face my fear of interviewing people was to do it.”

To date, Sinclair’s guests have included local experts- including Kenosee area resident Dr.

Kenosee Lake resident Will Sinclair says of his podcast ‘The Real Truth About You’: “The purpose of the podcast is to help listeners be the best they can be. And the question isn’t ‘What are you going to be?’ but ‘Are you all you can be?’” Sinclair’s guests have included local experts Dr. John McMillan who speaks about suicide awareness and prevention, Choose Life Ministry founder Shelley Boyes, and Jackie Doty of Beauticontrol, an international cosmetics and skin care company. (Staff photo by Lynne Bell)

John McMillan, who spoke about suicide awareness and prevention, Shelley Boyes of Carlyle’s Second Chance Thrift Store-who founded Choose Life Ministry in response to the tragic death of her teenage daughter, and Jackie Doty, who discusses her personal and professional journey on her way to becoming an executive director of Beauticontrol, an international beauty and skin care company.

Sinclair has also shared the show’s microphone with his wife, Edrina, who is director of the Kenosee Boys and Girls Camp-and who has also has co-written a weekly newspaper column with her husband on the subject of relationships.

“She reminds me to keep my feet in the dirt and my head in the clouds,” laughs Sinclair. “So far, my interview with her has been the most downloaded.

She’s very insightful and inspiring and she really hits the nail on the head.”

Sinclair says the primary purpose of his podcast is to help people and he adds that the process of self-discovery and healing is a journey he shares with his listeners.

“I’ve been on my own journey of discovery and finding out who I really am during the last few years,” he says. “In my case, I had a lot of anger in my life, because of abuse I’d undergone as a child.

I played a lot of mind games with my wife. It was how I dealt with life.”

“I got help. But before you seek help, you have to become aware that you need it,” adds Sinclair.

“During counselling, I discovered my anger wasn’t me, but it was a response to my experiences. The next part of my journey was to uncover me.”

“Sometimes we carry this baggage with us, but we don’t know how to get rid of it.”

“I’m hoping that this podcast inspires people to be the best they can be-whether that’s discovering who they are under the layers of junk they’ve accumulated in an attempt to cope with negative experiences or whether they’re just thinking of what’s next in life for them.”

Topics ‘The Real Truth About You’ has covered also include: getting unstuck, surrounding yourself with good people, building on your strengths instead of your weaknesses, stopping procrastination, the power of forgiveness, blasting through fear, and more.

“When you become who you really are, you become more positive and that attracts more positive people and experiences to you,” says Sinclair. “It’s a journey, though, so the first thing I’d say is: ‘Don’t beat yourself up.’”

“And when you fail, don’t give up,” he adds.

“Failure actually makes you more powerful. If you don’t give up, it can make you stronger, so just start!”

“When I was in the hospital, there were times when I didn’t know if I would live or die. It was just God and I. And although I’m a Christian, this podcast is for everyone-no matter who or what you believe in or whether you don’t believe in anything.”

Clarke memorial slo-pitch tournament granted action during the day to those at the fairgrounds, while barrel racing action could also be found that afternoon.

The action everyone was waiting for, however, began at 6:30 p.m.

Twenty-five riders came out to try their skills at the money. The long-go round saw five cowboys ride their eight seconds with Dakota Buttar earning 85.5 points, Cody Coverchuk earning 84 points, Dakota Louis awarded with 83.5 points, and Will Purcell

who entered twice earned two births to the short-go round with a ride of 82.5 points and 76 points.

To round off the top 10, the riders nearest to making eight seconds were embraced. This meant that in addition to Buttar, Coverchuk, Louis, and Purcell twice, Zach Peterson, Stetson Lawrence, Kale Marks, Justin Lloyd, and Josh Birks also competed.

In the end, however, the bulls proved to be powerful and Coverchuk was the only rider to make eight seconds. He scored

89 points and went home with the Bear Claw Casino Championship buckle from Manor Fun Daze.

“There is still no cure for the common birthday.

Rodeos elevant

Well it was rodeo weekend again in the area with bull riding in Manor and the professional rodeo in Kennedy.

So, what does that mean? It’s time to talk about thoughts surrounding rodeos. Every year it comes up as a concern… people become very vocal about the treatment of animals and a discussion always follows.

Kelly Running A headlining story Observer Staff this year from the Brampton Guardian was “No animal deaths at Calgary Stampede this year.” The last time that happened was in 2003 apparently. But to me that kind of news wasn’t noteworthy. Over the last few years yes there were a few animal injuries here and a couple of deaths of animals there, it is risky business, but business those animals live for. They’re performers and the Calgary rodeo is their stage.

Stock contractors care about their animals deeply. A couple years ago I spoke with Jim Lawrence about the rough stock he raises and you could tell by the way he spoke about his animals that he and his family care for them. They take pride in their animals and they don’t want to see them injured, they want to see them perform.

And for those that are bringing their horses to use in the timed events such as steer wrestling and tie down roping, those are likely the same animals they use day in and out on the ranch because those timed events are all skills that cowboys may use in everyday life. So, the bonds that develop between themselves and their horses are strong.

The same thing goes for horses and the ladies in the barrel racing. They spend a ton of time together and develop a strong bond. They know each other.

They know how they react at each barrel.

I’ve heard a story that an old horse that was retired was looking a little down. The individual didn’t ride them in the arena, the horse was retired, but she set out barrels and put the horse in the corral. The horse actually went and did the pattern multiple times over. The horse loved it. The horse loved performing and loved the race of the barrels… and although retired and old, it remembered the pattern and perked right up after getting to do it.

So, when people say that rodeos are relics of the past and shouldn’t exist anymore I would have to disagree. Those horses are bred for a purpose and they find satisfaction in doing what they were bred to do. To say that rodeos are relics is like saying those animals are no longer relevant, which sounds worse for them as a species than being part of a rodeo.

Weekends are a bit like rainbows; they look good from a distance but disappear when you get up close to them.

An adventure in cleaning up and cleaning out I came across an article that had me laughing and nodding my head in agreement at the same time. It described the experience of people tasked with cleaning out storage areas in their churches. Some finds could be anticipated like boxes of old hymnals, closets of choir robes and countless felt boards. But they also found dried-out mimeograph supplies, decades old Shelley Luedtke Christmas programs, and in one church--chicken incubator lights.

A lady from East Brunswick, New Jersey found a box of used Christmas cards that were repurposed for crafts. She came across a card written by her grandfather in what turned out to be his last Christmas with them. She remarked, “That card has been sitting there about 20 years just waiting for me to clean up the church.”

Some said it was a bit of a walk through technological history as they cleared out filmstrips. projectors, videos, cassettes and vinyl LPs, while others felt heartbroken over tossing “millions of foam craft kits” and “enough felt animals to fill 40 Arks.”

My favourite comment came from a man from Chatfield, Ohio who recounted a sense of victory over one of his discoveries. “I found the Ark of the Covenant in the church basement, probably from a Vacation Bible School drama. It made me feel like Indiana Jones.”

Most of us can relate to the experience of tackling areas where things have been accumulating for years and attempting to clean out and reorganize spaces that contain stockpiled supplies. Getting out from under it requires someone being willing to make difficult decisions and take an honest look at the worth of something sitting in storage.

We hold on to things we see as valuable, convinced that sometime in the future the items will truly come in handy. It’s all well-intentioned but quite often puts someone else, years down the road, tasked with cleaning out items deemed not important enough to make use of, but far too important to get rid of. As it stacks up it needs to go somewhere so closets, cupboards and cubbyholes fill up quick-

ly. It then takes a concerted effort if, and when, someone wants to get in and sort, toss and clean out. Although it can be physically taxing, it can feel really good when it is done. Spaces feel new, fresh and ready for the next great thing.

I have zero problem tossing things out. It doesn’t mean I am unsentimental about objects or careless with supplies. It just means I don’t get too wrapped up in what I think needs to go. Yet I seem to have a tougher time with other stuff I’ve accumulated--stuff like resentments, irritations, grudges or past hurts. They stack up too, just like binders of old documents and boxes of partially used supplies-but with the potential for far more harmful consequences.

We may think we are adept at taking old grievances or hurt feelings and tucking them away in our history like items in back rooms or seldom-accessed attics, but they are always there. We carry them around with us…every day…hauling them like dead weight, dragging us down, keeping us from moving forward. Unless we deal with them.

No one can deny that the pain we experience is real. But we have the option of storing up that pain and tucking it away in the hopes of one day making use of it, (because let’s face it, those hurts are easily stirred up) or working through it and sorting out what is true or not, what needs to be learned, and what simply needs to be tossed in order to make room for what can add value to our lives.

We’ve all experienced wounds: rejection, loss, embarrassments, disillusionments, damaging words and hurtful actions. But just like storages areas filled with impractical and unusable stuff, keeping our hearts filled with these things means there’s less room for that which would be beneficial to carry around; kindness, joy, forgiveness, peace, friendship and love.

The process is not easy, but it too, feels really good once it’s done. In the course of cleaning up and cleaning out we might also come across something within ourselves just waiting to be rediscovered. Digging through what is in the way just might help us unearth what we need to feel like our own Indiana Jones and get primed to again feel new, fresh, and ready for the next great thing.

That’s my outlook.

Seeing things differently . . .

Go wild while hunting boar… maybe not the best decision Towards the end of June the Saskatchewan Government decided to relax its laws against the hunting of wild boar in the province. Hunters are no long required to have a licence to hunt feral or free-ranging wild boar… which might not be the right way to go.

Although this means the Kelly Running government recognizes wild Observer Staff boar is a threat, turning it into a free for all is likely not the answer. Currently a study in the Moose Mountain’s back country is being conducted and researchers with that have continually told the media that hunting wild boar without studying them first isn’t going to help.

Boar are highly intelligent and adaptable, which means they will become more difficult to locate if the group is not completely eradicated.

Hence, the study is focused on monitoring movement and habits of the animals, to encourage eventual eradication. But understanding the creature is important before simply allowing people to hunt them because there is actually a chance to make things worse not better by doing this.

Although over 60 rural municipalities in southern Saskatchewan have reported damage matching wild boar (unconfirmed) or have actually seen wild boar. Control sounds more complex than just letting people hunt them as they like.

It would appear through an article I read on Global News that the government is expecting these changes to make a difference in boar population, but with the research being done in the back country of the Moose Mountains I’m very hesitant to believe it will work.

Unrestricted hunting by inexperienced hunters who think they’ll just bag a wild boar is the biggest thing I worry about. First off wild boar can be dangerous when threatened and hunters may put themselves into a poor situation which may result in injury if they do something wrong in their hunt.

Boar can grow to quite a large size, so threatening them as an inexperienced hunter is maybe not the best idea.

Secondly because boar are smart and opportunistic omnivores they can adjust and adapt quite easily. If they were caught doing something and threatened, they’re less likely to be caught doing that again. Even trapping a boar is difficult because if it happens to one, typically the others will learn that those traps are traps and avoid them.

The government possibly should have checked in with the University of Saskatchewan’s efforts to study wild boar before simply changing the laws.

But I guess we’ll just see how this goes… either they’ll be in discussions in the future about how to approach the matter or maybe their gamble of opening up hunting will pay off. Only time will tell.

Editor’s Note . . .

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

The bad news about boar-hunting The good news is that the province recognizes the seriousness of the presence of wild boar in Saskatchewan. The bad news? The animals can now be hunted in Saskatchewan without a license.

These statements may seem counter-intuitive, but they’re not. Unrestricted hunting of these feral pigs is part of the reason they have become a massive problem the U.S. Ryan Brook, an Assistant Professor at the College of Agriculture and Bioresources at the University of Saskatoon told The Observer just over a Lynne Bell year ago: “In the United States, there are approximately five million wild Observer Staff boars and they cause approximately $1.5 billion in damage annually. We have to take this matter very seriously. Do we really want wild boars to cause billions of dollars in Saskatchewan?”

Of course we don’t. Wild boar were introduced to the province in an effort to diversify agriculture, but their rapid rates of reproduction, their ease of adaptation to a variety of environments and their destructive capabilities translate into trouble for farmers, ranchers, native wildlife and ecosystems, and, well, all of us.

Space doesn’t allow me to even begin to scratch the surface of how destructive wild boar are, but a quick Google search will give a compelling picture of how difficult they are to eradicate and the extensive damage they are capable of causing.

Ryan Powers, who is conducting a study of wild boar with Brook in Moose Mountain Provincial Park, told The Observer: “Wild boar adapt to a wide range of habitats. They’re opportunistic omnivores that eat almost anything and everything they find and they’re prolific breeders.”

“The damage they cause is tremendous-the damage to acgriculture, property and the environment is hard to quantify. But in Texas alone, feral swine cause an estimated $59 million in damage annually.”

So what’s the problem with hunting the pesky pigs?

The concern isn’t so much hunting them; but unrestricted hunting by inexperienced hunters.

Currently, a study is being conducted in Moose Mountain Provincial Park by Brook and Powers, who are working with the locally-based Moose Mountain Wild Boar Eradication Committee. Both parties are aware of the urgency surrounding the boars’ presence in Saskatchewan and their goal is complete eradication.

However, wild boar are intelligent, adaptive creatures and when targeted by inexperienced hunters, large-scale eradication becomes more diificult, not less. With the introduction of more hunters, wild boar quickly adapt and soon become even more difficult to locate. The Moose Mountain group use tracking collars and target specific pigs in an effort to achieve eradication that is total and effective for the long-term.

I have no doubt that the new hunting regulations are well-intentioned, but they are not wellresearched.

In this area, Powers and his team-working in conjunction with the Moose Mountain Wild Boar Eradication Committee-are conducting valuable research and employing strategies that aim to permanently solve the feral pig problem throughout the province, and unrestricted hunting will only hinder their progress.

Cardinals victorious for third consecutive year Kelly Running Observer Staff

Great weather, awesome fans, and lots of action was enjoyed at the Kenosee ball diamonds July 23 and 24.

Another Saskota baseball season is in the books and this year marks the third consecutive Harbourne Memorial Tournament Championship for the Carlyle Cardinals. This year the Cardinals met the Oxbow Chiefs in the final where they successfully defended their title and their first place seed going into the league final.

The Harbourne matched up the Cardinals against the Carnduff Astros, Kenosee Cubs, and Redvers A’s in round robin action, while the Estevan Tower Wolves, Chiefs, Arcola Threshers, and Wawota Pats went head to head against each other in their round robin action.

Coming out on top in their pool the Cardinals took on the Threshers in semi-final action, with the Cardinals able to advance to the final. They awaited the results between the Chiefs and Astros, which saw the Chiefs earn a win taking them to the finals.

Tough game play and a lot of action saw the Chiefs put up a fight, but after close innings to begin the game the Cardinals began to gain momentum and never looked back as they forced the Chiefs to change pitchers multiple times before earning a 10 run lead over the Chiefs which ended the final 12-2.

First annual Tri-for-a-Purpose a success

The first annual Tri-for-a-Purpose was hosted at Moose Mountain Provincial Park on Sunday, July 24.

Starting at the Main Beach athletes made their way into Kenosee where they swam 500 metres out and around a buoy. Athletes then

raced back up the beach to the bike stands where they started their cycle or tagged a teammate to continue the race. The 12 kilometre bike route had cyclists loop back around to the bike stands where they were off to finish the circuit with a 5.5 kilometre run.

The event was supported by numerous businesses to ensure a great day for everyone. In addition to those who worked as a team in the triathlon or who completed the circuit on their own, people also registered to do a 5.5 kilometre or 17.5 kilometre walk.

In total the event drew 48 participants, including individuals and teams participating.

The vision for the event ensured the success as people were happy to do their part in giving to the Saskatchewan Cancer Society.

Prior to the event beginning, which also saw many people come out to watch and cheer on racers, Brittany Dalziel with Lotus Tree Wellness and Healing, welcomed everyone to the event. She explained the mission of those involved with organizing the event as wanting to bring support and awareness to different issues.

This year it was decided they would

support the Saskatchewan Cancer Society.

All Canadians have been affected by cancer, whether they know someone who has had cancer or has battled it themselves. Coming together those who participated were standing with those currently fighting the disease.

Top finishers included individual male - Jon Hammett - with a time of 1:05:45, hot on his heels was the individual female winner – Leigh Rosengren – with a time of 1:06:58, and they were followed by the first team – Fritz Sauter, Benn Armstrong, and Mark Kraul – with a time of 1:13:57.

“We were pumped with the turn out – great volunteers, sponsors, participants, and cheerleaders!” Dalziel said. “It will go again next year for sure. The plan is to be doing it for a different charity every year.”

Danielle Steele, Darcy Easton and Darren Swanson celebrate their team finish following the first annual Tri-for-a-Purpose.

CANADA’S EGYPTIAN COMMUNITY

NEWFOUNDLAND & LABRADOR

Canadians with Egyptian ancestry make up a diverse and vibrant community of nearly 80,000 people throughout the country, with large concentrations in Toronto, Montreal and Vancouver.

They form a highly educated segment of the population that contributes to all layers of Canadian society.

Despite these solid roots, the presence of Egyptians living in Canada is surprisingly recent—the first substantial wave of immigrants to arrive on Canadian soil from Egypt can be traced back to the Suez Crisis of 1956. Over the following years, the size of this new Canadian community grew at a rapid pace and became the largest group of immigrants from Arabic countries by the 1960s. Because French is a common second language among Egyptians, a large portion of these newcomers chose to settle in Quebec.

You can thank Egyptian Canadians for culinary favourites like stuffed vine leaves and sweet baklava. Local Egyptian associations often host community celebrations on special occasions like the traditional springtime festival Sham el-Nesim. Next time there’s an event in your neighbourhood, swing by for some authentic food and fun!

When Gustave Gingras was born in 1918, medical science offered little hope for the severely ill and disabled. An undoubtedly smart young man, Gingras decided to study medicine with dreams of making the future less bleak for those in need of healthcare. After receiving his M. D. from Université de Montréal in 1941, he joined the Canadian Forces Medical Corps and left to serve abroad for the war.

Stationed in Basingstoke, England, Gingras interned in neurosurgery and planned on staying in that field once his service was over. However, upon his return to Montreal he was put in charge of rehabilitating paraplegic veterans at the Queen Mary Veterans Hospital. Giving these severely injured men a chance at a normal life was a turning point in Gingras’ career: he felt that physical rehabilitation was his true calling.

Gustave Gingras founded North America’s first rehabilitation hospital, the Montreal Institute of Rehabilitation, in 1949. His facility and team played a vital role during the polio epidemic of the 1950s, and again a decade later when hundreds of Canadian babies were born with defects caused by the drug thalidomide. The list of lives he improved extends far beyond Canada’s borders. When thousands of Moroccans became paralyzed after consuming tainted cooking oil in 1959, Gingras’ efforts enabled 8,000 victims to make a full recovery.

He set up prosthetic workshops in Vietnam, built rehabilitation centres in Cameroon, and the list goes on.

Gingras was a brilliant contributor to the technical side of physical rehabilitation, but he never lost sight of the human aspect of his work. A lifelong advocate for the rights of disabled people, he lobbied the Canadian government to aid the integration of the disabled in schools and workplaces, joined the War Amps of Canada in its quest to gain compensation for Canadian veterans, and fought for the victims of the thalidomide disaster.

Entire books could be written on Gingras’ medical feats, which earned him dozens of awards. But above all, he will be remembered for his dedication and selflessness. When Gustave Gingras passed away in his Prince Edward Island home in 1996, he left behind a brighter world for sufferers of physical disabilities around the globe.

WEEKS TO GO

PITCHER PLANT Newfoundland adopted the pitcher plant (Sarracenia purpurea) as its provincial flower in 1956. However, its earliest association dates back to the 1880s, when the crimson flower was engraved on the Newfoundland penny. This marsh-growing species is carnivorous, digesting insects that drown in pools of water inside its tubular leaves.

White Bear Lake Ladies Golf Tourney raises nearly $5,000 for STARS Lynne Bell

Observer Staff

Over 100 golfers united to support STARS Air Ambulance at the White Bear Lake Ladies Golf Tournament, Friday, July 22 at the White Bear Lake Golf Course.

The 2016 tournament winners are: Connie McIntyre, Bev Grimes, Donna Coffey and Alison Dunning; and Lothian says each golfer is committed to the tourney’s cause.

“We had 26 teams this year,” says Jacky Lothian, one of the event’s organizers. “It was a great success and out two main goals were met: the ladies had a lot of fun and we were able to make a generous donation of approximately $5,000 to STARS.” “STARS makes numerous medical emergency flights,” adds Lothian. “During the past year alone, 16 of those flights were to Arcola, one was to Kenosee Lake and one was to Carlyle.”

“Whether we’re women from urban Saskatchewan or rural Saskatchewan and whether we’re from the local area or cottagers from out-of-province, we all understand the importance of STARS to our communities.”

“All of our golfers can relate to STARS,” she continues. “People sometimes assume that ru-

ral communities are the only places that directly benefit from the service STARS provides. But urban communities do, as well. For example, if there’s a big event like a Rider game or a concert and traffic is tied up, STARS can be counted on to provide medical transport if an emergency arises in a situation like that.”

“As a result, we’re happy to welcome new golfers to the tournament, but we get a lot of ladies who come back every year.”

Lothian-along with Colleen Brown and Ev Sillers-organized the first tournament in 2013 to encourage female golfers to have fun on the fairway and to enjoy the White Bear course.

“The first tournament really laid the foundation,” says Lothian. “We wanted to create a great day for a good cause. Thanks to the generosity of so many people-from this area and elsewhere-as well as our many wonderful sponsors and our golfers we’re able to support STARS every year.”

“Many people assist in ensuring that the day runs smoothly-we couldn’t do it without the staffs at the Bear Claw (Casino) and the White Bear Lake Golf Course, she adds. “Once again, Larry Palmer and his crew had the course in great shape.”

“Thanks to all the supporters of the tournament, the next time they see that ‘beacon of hope’ in the sky, they say a little prayer for that person

Organizers (l-r) Ev Sillers, Jacky Lothian and Colleen Brown say this year’s White Bear Lake Ladies Golf Tournament met its two main goals: a fun day for golfers and raising money for and awareness of STARS Air Ambulance. This year’s event netted nearly $5,000 for STARS. whose life is on the line and then pat themselves on the back knowing that their support of STARS is helping to give that person their best chance of survival.”

“It’s a fun tournament and we encourage all ladies seeking a fun ladies event to join us next year.”

“It’s a great day for a great cause.”

Happy days are here again

Rider Insider Rod Pedersen And all it took was a simple 30-29 Saskatchewan home victory over the Ottawa RedBlacks!

I’m joking of course, because Friday’s long-awaited victory by the Saskatchewan Roughriders was anything but simple. But it has completely turned this province’s frown upside-down and today, as we begin a brand new week, you’d have to look long and hard to find someone who isn’t smiling ear-to-ear after the Roughriders’ lastminute victory the other night.

That simple little triumph has lifted Saskatchewan out of the West Division basement at 1-3 and now your friendly neighbourhood Roughriders head to Montreal this Friday with the prospect of, with a win, potentially coming home tied for third in the West.

What a difference a win makes.

People are giddy and once again the Roughriders were the number-one topic across the Wheat Province over the weekend only this time, it was for all the right reasons. “We played better in other games and still lost,” one Rider fan said to me on Sunday.

Funny how it’s “we” when the Riders win and “they” when they lose.

But no matter. The Rider bandwagon is fill-

ing up and team President Craig Reynolds is at the front of the bus taking tickets. There are plenty of seats still available.

To be honest, it’s not like anyone was tearing down the walls around here over the past few weeks anyway. In fact, on last Friday’s home game day, I was floored to see all of the people adorned in green and white on the streets of downtown Regina. At least 2-in-3 were wearing a Rider jersey, golf shirt or some sort of Rider garb even though their club hasn’t won once in the calendar year.

I bumped into Ottawa RedBlacks Defensive Coordinator Mark Nelson on Regina’s downtown Scarth Street - he was out to grab a morning coffee - and he was equally impressed by the show of support from the Rider Nation.

“You’d never know we’re 0-3!” I mused to the Nick Nolte-lookalike.

“That’s the beautiful thing about Regina,” Nelson smiled back. He’d know, since he spent one season as a linebacker with the Green Riders back in 1986 Frankly Friday’s victory over the previouslyunbeaten RedBlacks was just a bonus as far as I was concerned. Head Coach and General Manager Chris Jones had already demonstrated to me at Thursday’s pregame news conference that this football club was indeed on the right track. I asked the motorcycle-riding coach if the players on this football club still believe they are a good team because, after all, they hadn’t won yet and talk

is cheap.

“I think they believe they are internally,” Jones said. “But again, it’s 12 new guys on defense and there are a lot of rookies in the room so until you win a football game ... you’re judged off whether you win or lose.”

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

I couldn’t have been more comfortable with Jones’ response. You could tell in his eyes that he was tired of losing, even if it’s only been a handful of games to start the year. He even admitted to reporters that he was getting frustrated and that his coaching staff wasn’t used to losing.

Jones knew full well that it was time to put up or shut-up but even I knew that once those 44 players took to the field, their performance was generally beyond their coach’s control. Were they ready to take that next step and actually win a game? They’d been so close to winning the past few weeks but had come up empty.

I was simply satisfied with the fact that Jones wasn’t content to blow sunshine up the Rider Nation’s skirt any longer. He saw what we all saw: a blossoming young football team that’s on the rise but if they didn’t win soon, would start questioning their own abilities and maybe even the direction they were given.

And then, VOILA! Before a crowd of 31,071, Canada’s Team went out and dumped the RedBlacks on a last-minute 53-yard field goal by Tyler Crapigna (CrahPEEN-Yah), on another glorious Saskatchewan summer night.

Oh and by the way, has anyone else noticed we’ve had perfect weather for each of the four home games so far this season in the last one on Piffles Taylor Way? I’ve heard God’s a Rider fan and he’s certainly set the table nicely for the Farewell Season at the old Mosaic Stadium.

And it really struck me in Friday’s game that when Taylor Field/ Mosaic Stadium is truly rocking, it’s going to be impossible to replace. You know the kind of atmosphere where it’s so loud that the west side grandstand is shaking? (You can tell on television because

the TSN cameras are shaking). It’s bedlam.

That’s what we had the other night and with this win, the Saskatchewan Roughriders - I believe - are over the hump. Look out, rest of the CFL. We told you it’s building and it’s coming under Chris Jones.

By Bruce Penton The team that the Great One built, the Edmonton Oilers, is trying to get rid of its laughingstock label.

This has to be the year, doesn’t it?

Ten consecutive years out of the playoffs, four No. 1 overall draft picks in a six-year span and still the Oilers are lousy, still mocked around the National Hockey League. The latest campaign? Dead last in the Western Conference and secondlast overall, thanks only to the ineptness of the Toronto Maple Leafs.

Outside the Alberta capital, the consensus among hockey fans seems to be the Oilers have wasted their No. 1 overall draft luxuries — Taylor Hall in 2010, Ryan Nugent-Hopkins in 2011, Nail Yakupov in 2012 and then the cherry on top, the latest ‘generational player,’ Connor McDavid in 2015. Is it possible the Oilers can continue to lose with those kind of riches?

In Edmonton, the feeling is no. The losing will end. This year.

General manager Peter Chiarelli is trying to do his part. Chiarelli has had a busy summer,

signing rugged winger Milan Lucic as a free agent, trading away Hall and acquiring defenceman Adam Larsson — partially filling one of Edmonton’s most serious needs — and drafting flashy Finnish forward Jesse Puljujarvi at No. 4, when he was the consensus third-best player in the draft. The Oilers may also have nailed another winner in this year’s draft by getting hometown boy Tyler Benson, whose draft stock fell due to an injury-prone WHL season in Vancouver.

The thinking around Edmonton is that the Oilers’ young players are ready to jell, led by McDavid ,who missed half his rookie season due to a shoulder injury yet still managed to pile up the third-best points-per-game stat in the league — 1.07, to trail only Patrick Kane and Jamie Benn. A full season of a more experienced McDavid, with protection from Lucic, should result in some astronomical scoring stats. And a few more Oilers’ victories.

Overall, the Oilers’ arrow is pointing up after a decent summer: Hall is the only significant departure, while Larsson, Lucic and Puljujarvi are significant additions. McDavid’s play will raise the performance of those around him, just as the Great Gretzky back in the 1980s helped made superstars of Messier, Kurri, Anderson, Coffey, et al. The talent potential is there and it’s not too farfetched to believe it’s ready to explode.

LOCAL NEWS

Kennedy/Langbank News

Kennedy was a very busy town this past weekend - it was rodeo again for another year and it all began a few weeks ago when the committee began preparing for the time.

It takes a lot of time and talent to put on these shows. No matter where you looked around the town there were campers and people just thoroughly enjoying their freedom. Once again there was a very good parade, the food served at the Friendship Centre was enjoyed by a number of folks. Hopefully there will be a more detailed report on the weekend, Monday morning most campers were gone, hopefully everyone enjoyed themselves.

Friday, July 22nd I had the opportunity of attending a birthday party for a long time friend in Kipling at the home of Vern and Elaine Pusche, Ruth Mellor was entertained by a few good friends

for her 85th birthday.

The funeral service in remembrance of George Smyth was held at the Kennedy Community Hall on July 25th, relatives and friends filled the hall, Officiants Rev. Barbara Wilkins and Roy Bortolotto with a number of folks in the choir (George was always a part of the choir) the eulogy was read by his two daughters, and family memories was presented by Kathleen Istace, the Masonic gentlemen had a short service for George followed by commendation and benediction.

Lunch was served by the United Church and a time for visiting was enjoyed.

Roland Stephen and his daughter Danielle Geirger of Regina visited with Carrie Stephen at the home of George and Doreen Cancade on Saturday.

Carrie and myself attended the baptism of my great granddaughter McKennan Eldstrum at

A new century for Maryfield Fair Kelly Running Observer Staff

Last year’s centennial at the Maryfield Fair marked a huge moment for the community and surrounding area. Although a centennial is big, this year marked the first of their next 100 years.

Hosted on Friday, July 22, the Maryfield Fair celebrated 101 years welcoming many to enjoy a day in the community.

The event kicked off with a pancake breakfast hosted by the Borderland Co-op and the opening of the fair was enjoyed at 9 a.m.

Activities throughout the day included the annual ManSask Border Circuit horse show. The exhibit entries were judged in the morning and were opened to view by the public at noon.

The day included a chili cook-off or a hamburger lunch cooked by the local Lions.

Entertainment by The Three L-Tones and The Circus Man were enjoyed throughout the day as well as carnival games for kids and a petting zoo, while many were excited by the delicious pork supper the Lions were making that evening.

One of the biggest fundraisers of the day, which has given to various aspects of the community over the years, is the auction of the exhibits before supper.

Rob Hill, President of the Maryfield Ag Society, explained, “It’s a unique auction we’ve been doing the past few years where we have people donate their fair entries to be auctioned off. This year we will donate the money to the rink roof project.

We’ve raised about $20,000 over the past seven years of doing this. Pies can get up to $100, and since Saskatoon pies are loved by many they’ve gone for $300 to $350 before, and jam can go for between $80 and $100.”

“We’ve donated the money we’ve raised through this to STARS in the past and to other projects in the community.”

“We have really good sponsors and wouldn’t be

In at the horse show registration was down slightly from the centennial, but was up from the average of years past. Forty-two participants registered, which included a large contingent of young participants, and enjoyed the day as guest judge Terri Smith was welcomed back to the community.

Smith had judged approximately three years ago and was asked back, those involved with the horse show try to get different judges, so no one is judging two years in a row. But they were very happy to

“Thank you to everyone who chose to come to our fair today,” Hill said in his President’s Message.

“Your presence and support is the reason the fair continues to be an annual event in our community.”

“This year will mark the 101st year for the Maryfield Agricultural Society. People of all ages can enter exhibits into more than 200 classes. These classes encourage skills that have long been a way of life in our country as well as newer skills such as computer-generated greeting cards.”

“Thank you for all of your support.”

Subject: STARS Rescue on the Prairies 2016 The purpose of this letter is twofold.

I want to thank you for the generous donations made in 2015 to our Campaign to raise money for STARS in the 2015 Rescue on the Prairies. Because of everyone’s generosity to such a worthy cause $450,000 was raised overall in Saskatchewan. I am proud to say that with your help we raised approximately $230,000 of this amount.

The same campaign will run again in 2016 with Tina Bird, a very strong community-minded individual in the Estevan Area, will replace me and be challenged to raise $50,000 for STARS Foundation.

I want to once again thank everyone for the 2015 financial support. At the same time ask the local community residents to support Tina in 2016.

All donations, large or small, should be directed to Tina’s efforts at http://support.stars.ca/goto/bird.

STARS is for all of us, regardless of who we are or where we are. We need this service and hopefully we can support such a great cause.

On behalf of myself and the STARS Foundation, I thank everyone for their support.

Ron A. Carson
