Delaet, Zaleschuk survive intense sudden death playoff Warman golfers advance to International Pairs national final By TERRY JENSON
tjenson@ccgazette.ca
The Legends Golf Club will be represented later this fall at Crown Isle Golf Resort on Vancouver Island by the tandem of Merv Zaleschuk and Norm Delaet after grinding out a fiveplayoff hole victory Sunday evening. After posting 13-under 59s in the regulation 18-hole best ball round, the Zaleschuk/Delaet pair headed out to the 9th tee to begin a sudden-death playoff versus Darrel McKee and Ryan Vermeulen. Both teams traded punches and long putts throughout the first four holes before heading to the course’s signature 18th hole. Both Delaet and Zaleschuk found the fairway with their drives while McKee and Vermulin were a little errant and had to take drops from the hazard – McKee from the water and Vermeulen from the right side rough. Vermeulen then hit a perfect third shot to 100-yards, then a wedge to 15feet and a chance to save a net birdie on the par-5. But it all went for naught.
After Zaleschuk rolled his third shot a little long and left of the flag, Delaet calmly bounced his short 60yard pitch onto the front of the green, leaving himself an uphill 12-footer for bird and a net eagle. Zaleschuk then capped off the marathon match by draining his downhill 35-foot breaker, causing the pair to break out in smiles and high fives. “This was truly an epic battle,” Legends Golf Club General Manager and Head Pro Jody Dueck said at greenside as the players exchanged scorecards and congratulated each other. “Both teams made some huge clutch putts to stay alive today. My hat’s off to Ryan and Darrel as they played extremely well but Merv and Norm were just one better. With either team The Legends and Warman will be well-represented at Crown Isle.” Finishing third at the annual qualifier with a net score of 60 was the team of Cec Jones and Bill Rewuski. The event saw a total of 20 teams play an 18-hole best ball net score round for the privilege of travelling to the west coast national qualifier later this year. The one-day tournament is open to all men and women with a current RCGA handicap.

Firefighters from Warman and Osler, along with Warman RCMP and Corman Park Police Service, responded to an automotive fire at about 12:40 p.m. Wednesday, August 8. Police said the vehicle, a 2001 Chevrolet Cavalier, was northbound on Rge. Rd. 3052 adjacent to Highway 11 near the Corman Industrial Park when it burst into flames. Traffic in both directions was detoured while firefighters doused the fire and cleaned up the scene. There were no injuries in the incident.
On August 13, 2012, at 6:40 p.m., Warman RCMP, along with EMS and Fire, responded to a two vehicle collision on Highway 7 east of Delisle. Police investigation revealed the driver of the Volkswagen Jetta fell asleep and rear ended a Dodge Caravan. The driver of the Jetta was a 19 year old man from Saskatoon, and has been charged with driving without due care and attention under Traffic Safety Act. Five people suffered minor injuries in the collision. Two occupants of the Volkswagen Jetta were transported to Royal University Hospital as precautionary measure. Alcohol was not a factor in the collision.

Fed commission got boundaries right
C O M M E N T A R Y
Stop the double taxation on gas
They have always said that everyone in Saskatchewan has at least one foot on the farm. To some extent, this remains true. But there are a few other realities we factor into this old cliché. First, both Regina and Saskatchewan have been near or over 200,000 people for a generation now, so that connection to the farm increasingly means through a grandparent or uncle or aunt. Second, the growth in this province right now is through immigrants or Canadians from other provinces as much as it is people moving in from the country. Third – and most importantly – you can’t simultaneously be from both rural and urban Saskatchewan, anyway. You can be from a farm or a small town and that special bond may never leave your heart. But to suggest that the immediate needs and interests of city residents from Regina and Saskatoon are the exact same as those currently living in rural Saskatchewan has always been a ludicrous notion. For these reasons, it appears that the federal electoral boundaries commission of Justice Ronald Mills, Professor John Courtney and SARM President David Merit has got Saskatchewan’s new boundaries right. Let us just hope that the politicians don’t screw it up again like they did last time. The new boundaries in Saskatchewan would see Regina and Saskatoon residents represented by three seats (instead of the current four) called Saskatoon Centre-University, Saskatoon West, Regina Lewvan, Wascana and Regina Qu’Appelle and Saskatoon
At its 2012 Gas Tax Honesty Day event held May 17th, National Communications Director Scott Hennig says the federal government must stop its tax-on-tax. When the federal 5% GST is added to the price of gas, it is not only calculated based on the cost of the gas itself, but also on the hidden provincial and federal taxes. • Canadian Taxpayers Association
How much do Canadians pay in taxes? Canadian Taxpayers Federation’s National Research Director Derek Fildebrandt says the average Canadian pays 43% of their income to taxes. Canadians now pay more in taxes than for the basic needs of life -- food, clothing and housing. • Canadian Taxpayers Association
CTF launches billboard campaign calling for changes to MP Pensions At an Ottawa news conference, CTF federal director Gregory Thomas launches a CTF billboard campaign calling for changes to the gold-plated MP Pension Plan. Currently, for every dollar an MP contributes to their plan, taxpayers cough up $24. The CTF wants to see benefits reduced so taxpayers only contribute a dollar as well. • Canadian Taxpayers Association

Grasswood. Only the latter two would have a combination of rural and urban voters. Meanwhile, there would still be seats called Cypress Hills-Grassland, Souris-Moose Mountain, Prince Albert, Yorkton-Melville and DesnetheMissinippi-Churchill River in the north. However, they would be joined by “rural” seats called Kindersley-Rosetown-Humboldt, Lloydminster-Battlefords-Rosthern and Moose-Lake Centre-Lanigan. The total would remain 14. Notwithstanding the usual concerns about the physical size of depopulated rural ridings or the quibbling of which communities belong in the same riding, these boundaries clearly makes more sense than the existing ones that see eight of the province’s 14 seats split between rural and urban. Even the provincial boundaries commission – flawed as it might have been in adding three additional seats in this province when it was unnecessary to do so – recognized the inherent unfairness of urbanrural split seats. (Only two of new 61 provincial seats see any form of rural-urban split.) The logic would seem evident to us all. No matter how tied rural and urban Saskatchewan residents truly are, their immediate needs and issues are, and have always, been different. For that reason, it is infinitely logical to represent public interest in the way that current boundaries commis-

sion has. The problem, however, is political interests aren’t always the same as public interests ... which is how the current boundaries got so badly screwed up last time. Prior to establishment of the current boundaries, the interim boundaries proposed a much better interim map that represented the traditional urban and rural seats for this province. Unfortunately, self-interested politicians successfully fought to changed the boundaries. Most vocal were the NDP – specifically then NDP Regina-Palliser MP Dick Proctor– who argued his new rural riding stretching from the U.S. border to the outskirts of Saskatoon called “Long Lakes”

was just too big with too many communities with no common interest. As a result, we got ridings like Regina-Qu’Appelle that take in everything from inner city Regina to the rural communities 100 miles north. (Ironically, the NDP did not elect a single MP under the current boundaries.) Already, politicians like Conservative Saskatoon-Rosetown-Biggar MP Kelly Block are complaining about the unfairness of the new ridings that “break” the tradition of split urban-rural seats in Saskatchewan. Sadly, Block is as wrong as she seems self-interested. The proposed riding boundaries make far more sense. Let’s hope they don’t change.

Making tracks Vintage snowmobiles appeal on many levels By TERRY PUGH
tpugh@ccgazette.ca
I
t’s ugly, it’s expensive, and it doesn’t really work very well. The Snowbug was a snowmobile that was a poorly-designed, cumbersome flop when it came out in the early 1970s. Manufactured in Sudbury, Ontario, the Snowbug was originally envisioned as a dependable workhorse machine for the Canadian military to use on patrol missions across the vast trackless wilderness of the frozen Arctic tundra. “But I wouldn’t trust it for more than a city block at a time,” said Ken Reid of Warman. “I’ve worked on them, and they’re about the weirdest contraptions every made. They look like aluminum bathtubs. They had one ski in the front and a thirty-inch wide track. They were designed to stay afloat in soft snow, and they actually do do that, but on hard snow, it’s like driving a tricycle where one side lifts and the whole thing tips over.” It’s a machine you’ll never see nowadays, and Reid is the first to concede that there’s a reason for that. “It was just not a very good snowmobile,” he said. “But it’s a great collector’s item.” There were only 110 Snowbugs manufactured between 1971 and 1973, when the factory went out of business. Naturally, since the Snowbug was such a resounding failure, Reid is the proud owner of three of the machines. And he’s probably on the lookout for a fourth. Reid had half a dozen of his meticulously-restored vintage racing sleds at a “Show and Shine” in Radisson on Sunday, July 29. Along with a modified 1926 Model T hotrod, also owned by Reid, the vintage snowmobiles were among the most popular exhibits at the event. There’s something about vintage snowmobiles that appeals to everyone. “They’re like vintage cars,” said Reid in an interview on Wednesday, July 25. “They have character. People love to look at them. There’s an element of nostalgia. These are machines that people used to ride when they were kids. It brings back memories.” But there’s another aspect to collecting vintage snowmobiles that is growing in popularity across Saskatchewan that’s growing in popularity across Saskatchewan. The vintage snowmobile racing circuit is pulling in the crowds at meets where the weather can sometimes dip to minus 30. But even a wicked wind chill doesn’t dampen the enthusiasm of the racers or the spectators. Reid and his three grown sons and one nephew are seasoned racers in the vintage snowmobile circuit. “It’s a lot of fun,” said Reid. “I used to race in the normal circuit with the modern machines, and if we got 50 machines and 75 spectators out to an event that was considered a tremendous success. But two years ago, at the vintage snowmobile races held in Earl Grey, Saskatchewan, it was 30 below and there were 200 machines racing and over 500 spectators.” The focus of vintage snowmobile racing is on making sure everyone has a good time, said Reid. “The entry fee is 5 dollars, and you’re racing for a 2 dollar trophy,” he said. “The rules say, ‘if you want to cheat, go ahead.’ Every machine that shows up, they’ll find a class for you to race in.” Reid said the vintage sleds range from putzy 15 horsepower clunkers to veritable rockets that literally leap out of the starting blocks. “The true racing sleds of the 1970s had innovations that were way ahead of their time,” said Reid. “All the modern machines
Vintage snowmobiles at the Radisson Show and Shine use the same technology that the racing sleds of the 1970s had.” At one time, there were over 300 manufacturers of snowmobiles, he noted. That’s been whittled down to only 4 existing manufacturers: Skidoo, Polaris, Arctic Cat and Yamaha. “In the 1970s, every manufacturer had their own design and their own distinctive colours,” said Reid. “You could tell at a glance what kind of machine it was. Nowadays they all look the same.” Reid said while the modern sleds are capable of churning out in excess of 150 horsepower, the older racing sleds were more exciting to drive. “I have one machine that literally stands straight up in the air when you hit the throttle,” he said. “I don’t think we’ve even started up the new machines in the past couple of years. They’re easy to drive but they’re less of a challenge.” He noted that in the 1970s, sleds had a top speed of about 40 miles an hour, and many models weren’t capable of going half that fast. “Vintage snowmobile owners now have ‘endurance trail rides’ that are only ten miles long,” he said. “These are people who can enjoy a ride along
a snowmobile trail at 10 miles an hour.” The majority of snowmobiles manufactured now are capable of exceeding 100 miles an hour – a speed that really gets the adrenaline pumping – but which can also pose dangers for inexperi-

enced riders, noted Reid. “I’d rather be going fast on a race track than on a stubble field or a ditch,” he said. “There are rockpiles and cultivators and culverts that can do a lot of damage if you hit them at those speeds. A race track is a lot safer.”

Vanscoy & District Despite some last minute postponements and disappointments, the 29th Annual Vanscoy & District Agricultural Society’s Summer Fair was held Saturday and Sunday, August 11 and 12. A water main break earlier in the week near the grounds prevented organizers from being able to bring in equipment to prepare the riding arena for the light horse show, little britches rodeo and gymkhana. The agricultural society expects to the grounds to dry out soon, however, and has rescheduled the arena events for Saturday, September 8. This past weekend’s activities centered mainly around activities for the kids as well as exhibits and displays plus a fundraising dance in support of improvements to the community’s arena presented by the Vanscoy Rec Board. Clockwise from top left: Saskatoon’s Best Balloon Twister, Warren, put smiles on dozens of kids’ faces with his creations that included, among others, a set of butterfly wings, a penguin, a dragonfly and bat wings; a pair of inflatable castles provided a place for children to bounce, yell and scream the afternoon away; any season is hockey season; a pair of youngsters were digging for hidden treasure; it wouldn’t be a day at Kidsland without some faces being painted; the Vanscoy Circle Hall was filled with competition exhibits.

Martensville Mustangs strong contenders for AA Provincial playdowns North Battleford was the host site for the 2012 Mosquito AA Provincial Baseball Championships. This year’s entry from Martensville participated in the AAA division of Saskatoon Minor Baseball and put forth a great effort at this year’s championship. Coached by Mark Campbell, Wade Johnston, Russ Misskey and Jeff Dormuth, the squad began the tournament with a tough opponent in Swift Current. After establishing an early lead, the Mustangs could not hang on and suffered a loss by the score of 10-6. Two tough innings proved to be the difference in the first game. Pitching the first game were Tyler Vanneste, Garrett Johnston, Brody Braaten and Jamison Ryan. Game Two on Friday had the Mustangs playing the host Battleford Beavers. The Mustangs once again started with a lead, this time continuing that lead to a 9-6 win and even pool record of 1-1. Pitching this game were Noah Clavelle, Jonathon Ikert, Logan Campbell, Dawson Strunk and Rhys O’Soup. A busy Friday continued for the Mustangs as they then took in the Opening Ceremonies at Beaver Stadium; and finally wrapping up the day with a Skills Competition. The skills competition provided each member of the Mustangs to represent their team in one challenge event. First up was the Around the Horn Competition with throwing and catching as the main theme. This timed event displayed the throwing accuracy of the Mustangs as they completed the circuit without a drop or throwing error. Participants in the Around the Horn drill were Rhys O’Soup, Noah Clavelle, Brody Braaten, Seth Beaulac Ray and Tate Dormuth. Next up was the Home Run Hero Competition. With the coach pitching to his batter, the batter had 10 pitches to see how far the ball could be hit from home plate with the batter’s furthest hit being measured. Representing the Mustangs in this event was Logan Campbell. The third event was the base Run Derby. This relay race consisted of four players showing off their speed. Each player would have to make a full circle of the bases before handing the ball off to the next player. Any missed bases resulted in penalty time being added to the clock. Representing the Mustangs were Tyler Vanneste, Dawson Strunk, Nickolas Misskey and Jamison Ryan. The final event of the evening was the Tossing Partners. The players started 6 feet apart and after the completion of every throw, the receiving partner would move back 2 feet. This long toss event forced throwing accuracy and catching, as any drop or movement of the feet resulted in elimination from the contest. Representing the Mustangs were Jonathon Ikert and Garret Johnston. At the end of the competition, The Mustangs won a gift basket of snacks and beverages courtesy of Wal-mart for their hard work. Saturday began with a slow day as the remaining pool games had to be finished off before the Mustangs could determine their first round playoff opponent. It ended up being the Prince Albert Royals. Backed by a strong pitching performance from Seth Beaulac Ray (pitching his maximum 75 pitches), it was closed out by Rhys O’Soup and the Mustangs were advancing to the next round of playoffs with a 4-1 victory. The semi-final opponent would be the Weyburn Beavers, who were undefeated so far in the tournament. As customary throughout the tournament, the Mustangs would start strong offensively and defensively as they managed to build a 4-1 lead through 3 innings. Tyler Vanneste started the game (pitching his maximum 75 pitches) and performed very well. Unfortunately for the Mustangs, Weyburn began chipping away at the lead scoring 1 in the 3rd inning, 3 in the 4th inning and another 3 in the 5th inning for a 7-4 win. A couple of miscues in the 4th and 5th innings lead to the turn around. Even though the team ended with a 2-2 record at provincials; the Coaching Staff were very pleased with the development of the team over the course of the season. Congratulations on a great effort Mustangs, keep up the hard work and future years are sure to bring some Championship hardware back to the community.

Rutten not seeking second mayoral term “We are the second fastest growing city in Canada and the fastest growing city in Saskatchewan, yet growth has been orderly and controlled. That is an accomplishment we can all be proud of.”
Gordon Rutten Mayor of Martensville
I am announcing today (August 14th) that I will not seek re-election as mayor of the city of Martensville. I have had a great six years on city council, three as a councilor and three as mayor. I wish to thank my fellow councilors for all their hard work and dedication. I have truly appreciated being part of the city council team. Together we have accomplished many things, made some tough decisions, and had many a laugh along the way. I want to single out our city manager Scott Blevins for special mention. I have had a very positive working relationship with him and one that has been amicable, productive, and entirely focused on the professional management of our city. I have appreciated his candor and his commitment to the city over these last six years. I would also like to pay tribute to our hard working city employees. They are the quiet people who come to work, do their job well, rarely get recognized, and almost never receive public appreciation. Today I say thank you to all of them for all the work they do for the citizens of Martensville. I want to mention a few of the legacy projects that have been started or completed in the last 6 years. They are projects that council members should be proud of. They include; the completion of our state of the art swimming pool, continued expansion of our active and passive leisure resources including Geransky football field, new ball and soccer fields, the addition of kilometres of pathways, the construction of pedestrian

bridges, and beautification of our ponds, canals and green spaces. I am especially proud of the performance of city council and our management team with respect to the handling of the rapid and unprecedented growth of Martensville that started in 2007. We are the second fastest growing city in Canada and the fastest growing city in Saskatchewan, yet growth has been orderly and controlled. That is an accomplishment we can all be proud of. City council has worked hard over the years to respond to the three most consistent concerns brought forward by the citizens of Martensville. Significant progress has been made in these areas. The big three are as follows. 1. Business Expansion - The need for more retail businesses, more services and more commercial development has been a consistent theme for many years. A quick tour of Centennial Drive reveals the existence of many new retail businesses with more announcements to come over the course of the next year. In addition, many new commercial enterprises have opened up along 9th Street North. Significant progress has been made over the last 6 years in attracting new businesses to Martensville 2. More Health Services - Another priority that citizens identified is the need for more health services in Martensville and I am happy to remind everyone of a sign on Centennial Drive that has been up for a couple of months advertizing the location of a soon to be built well-
Martensville Mayor Gordon Rutten has announced he will not seek re-election the upcoming civic election GAZETTE CITIES FILE PHOTO ness centre which will house a pharmacy, half a dozen doctors and other health related professionals. The expansion of health services in Martensville is long overdue, and is finally underway. 3. Traffic improvement - Traffic congestion at Centennial and Main has been a growing concern as our city continues its rapid expansion. City council has taken action and worked with the Ministry of Highways to alleviate the problem including; (i) the 2011 installation of concrete barriers at Centennial and Main to speed traffic flow, (ii) the installation of traffic lights at Centennial and Main scheduled for September 2012, (iii), a 2013 commitment by the Ministry of Highways to rebuild and pave 10th Avenue South from Main Street to Luther Road to create an eastern exit out of the city, and (iv) advanced planning by the Ministry of
Highways to construct an interchange off Main Street between Centennial Drive and highway 12 in the next 5 to 10 years. Traffic congestion at Centennial and Main will ease considerably once the new traffic lights are installed in September 2012 and the eastern exit to Luther Road is completed in 2013. On a personal level, I want to thank the citizens of Martensville for their warmth, their support and their many kind remarks to me in the course of the last six years. I have truly appreciated the opportunity to serve them as a council member and mayor of the city of Martensville. I wish the next city council the very best of success in its task of assisting all of our citizens to truly feel that “Martensville is a great place to live.” Gordon Rutten Mayor of Martensville

Community chips in to help out Warman family A Warman family is nearing an incredibly exciting time in their lives as they get set to undergo surgeries in two different cities next month. Sandy Lockhart (pictured middle right with Renee Shaw & baby Hunter) will be travelling to Vancouver where she will be the recipient of a donated kidney while her husband, Fred (pictured bottom right with Dara & Kenny Klassen), will be in Winnipeg to donate a kidney of his own to someone in need. Since neither of the Lockharts will be able to work for up to eight weeks while they recover from the procedures, the community came together on Sunday at Lions Park in Warman to raise money to assist the family in covering day-to-day living costs. Preliminary estimates peg the total raised at approximately $7,000 to help with non-medical related expenses. Pictured (bottom) Organizers Tammy Pearson (Fred’s cousin), with her daughters Shelby and Cassie along with Fred’s aunt Merilyn McDonald (seated) were so pleased with the generosity of the community. The Lions Club of Martensville were also instrumental in sponsoring the event. GAZETTE CITIES PHOTOS BY ANGELA HEIDEL & WAYNE SHIELS

He’s one of the most recogized faces in Saskatchewan amateur golf circles and now Delisle’s Colin Coben will have a permanent place in the Saskatchewan Golf Hall of Fame. Coben, who fired an 8-under 208 at Melfort GC to claim the 2012 Saskatchewan Sr. Men’s Championship in July and most recently won the 91st Annual Men’s Northern Amateur Championship at Prince Albert’s Cooke Municipal Golf Club on August 6, will join Regina’s Scott Knapp and Saskatoon’s Ed Ross in the Players Category. Don Campbell, Wenda Coley and Bill Turnbull – all of Saskatoon – will be inducted into the hall of fame in the Builder Category. The third induction ceremony will be held Saturday, September 15 at Riverside Country Club south of Saskatoon. Tickets are $75 and can be purchased through the Golf Saskatchewan website. The Saskatchewan Golf Hall of Fame has been established to recognize the achievements of players and builders of golf in the province. Past inductees include players Barb Danaher, Pat Fletcher, Nancy Harvey, Geri Street and Pat Lawson plus builders such as Danny Jutras, Peter Semko and Hubert Cooke. Golf Saskatchewan is the governing body of amateur golf in the province and represents roughly 14,000 members at 104 clubs across Saskatchewan. The organization’s mission is to grow participation in, and passion for the sport while upholding the integrity of the game.

Will the real Saskatchewan Roughriders please stand up? The team from the province which bares the phone prefix ‘306’ was the toast of the Canadian Football League after a torrid 3-0 start this summer under rookie head coach Corey Chamblin. They were the last of the unbeatens. Now, following the Roughriders’ 28-20 loss at Edmonton Friday night, they are the CFL club who’s gone the longest without collecting a win. The boys in the green hats have lost three games in a row and stand at 3-3. Technically, they are in last-place in the CFL West. What happened? Well Friday night before the largest crowd in the CFL this season (just over 43,000), the Roughrider put on a shameless display of penalty-laden football and lost the turnover battle 3-0. We had JUST learned that 89% of teams who win the turnover battle go on to win the game. A former Roughrider and Eskimo who’s in the Rider Plaza of Honour told me after
RIDER INSIDER ROD PEDERSEN
Voice of the Riders Roughriders Radio Network
the contest “if it wasn’t for the penalties and turnovers, Saskatchewan would have won the game!” True, but that’s like me saying “if I wasn’t so ugly, I’d be hot”. That’s football, and the Roughriders left the stadium smarting even though they put up close to 500 yards offence. “That’s not the Saskatchewan Roughriders,” fumed Chamblin after the game. “There were a lot of penalties, turnovers and big plays against our defence. That was a very undisciplined showing by our team.” However upon the Riders’ return home to the YQR the next day, Chamblin had
changed his tune considerably. “When you look at (Rider quarterback) Darian there’s always room to improve but Darian’s playing fair to good at this point,” the coach reasoned. “Darian is not a part of our problem right now. He’s going to throw interceptions every QB in this league will. I’m okay with Darian’s play right now.” Ah, textbook Coaching 101. When the Riders were 3-0 Chamblin was the first to say his team was a long ways from perfect and they had a ton more to give. Now that they’ve hit the skids, he’s doing his best to lift the spirits and keep it positive. “The guys had the focus
there,” Chamblin continued at the airport. “We just have to find a way to win. The biggest thing I’m proud of is we’ve been in all six games. It’s not like they’ve been blowouts. They’re a young team which is getting older. I’m pleased with this team right now.” Durant followed right in line, which is worth noting. If the Roughriders are going to turn this thing around pronto, the quarterback and coach need to be on the same page. “We’re good,” Durant answered when asked about the team’s psyche. “We realize what’s wrong. It’s not like, after the game we’re looking for answers or we’re getting blownout. The psyche’s good, spirits are high, it’s early and we all realize that.” The trouble is it’s getting a little late to still be saying it’s early. The biggest test of the season comes Sunday in B.C. (5:00 kickoff) against the Grey Cup champion Lions. Will the Riders stand up for this one?

Bethany College baskeball camp 2012 a success on and off the court Submitted by Leanne Thiessen
Bethany College Sports Camp Coach
This year’s Above the Rim Basketball Camp was a success, both on and off the court. The camp is open to players from grade 7 to 12; this year’s registrants included students from Saskatoon and surrounding area and several from out of province. Our enrollment was the highest yet, at 48 campers! This number was an experimental increase from our previous cap of 36 campers and was handled easily as staff con-
player and U of S Kinesiology student); Core Strength, led by Leanne Thiessen (former U of S Huskie Women’s Basketball team player, fitness enthusiast and local mom/ coach); and Flexibility, led by Judith Andres (physiotherapist, fitness enthusiast, and local mom/coach). The players were put through active demonstrations of each area of focus, trying some of the exercises and gaining knowledge through both trial and error and the instruction of our presenters. They were able to take home information regarding specifics in each
ter where they are at in their life. We look forward to another wonderful week of camp at Above the Rim 2013! See you there!

Straight from the Eagles’ Nest tinued to provide quality instruction and leadership to all campers. Our camp staff leaders were: Program Director, Tasha Fehr (former Briercrest College athlete); Assistant Program Director, Alvin Thielmann (current Bethany College Athletics Director); and Head Instructor, Kelly Linnell (former U of S Huskie athlete). Coaches came from both the local area and Alberta, and included many current and former college and university athletes: Krista Barkey, Chad Braun, Cory Braun, Phil Braun, Tasha Fehr, Braydon Jordheim, Tony Martens, Leanne Thiessen, Kayla Wharton, Erin Bader, and Kendell Wiens. A huge thank you to the support staff that helped with behind-the-scenes details to ensure camp ran smoothly and was lots of fun, as well as the Bethany kitchen staff who served amazing meals all week – a real highlight for campers and staff! Kelly Linnell, our Head Instructor, focused on basic skills being the foundation of our game, just as Jesus Christ is the foundation of our faith. The campers were led through 3 on-court skill sessions a day and had the opportunity to put those skills into practice at the end of each day with round-robin team play. This culminated in 2 finals played Thursday evening which provided every camper with the opportunity to play in a final game. The off-court session this year was called, “The Upper Edge—Reaching the Top of Your God-Given Potential.” Though there are many aspects that contribute to an athlete’s ability to perform at their maximum potential, this year’s sessions focused on: Balance/Agility, led by Brad Boehm (physiotherapist and former WHL and U of S Huskie Athlete); Strength Training Basics, led by Erica Gavel (current U of S Huskie Women’s Basketball team
of the areas, tips for training at home and charts to record their progress. Each day contained a spiritual focus as well, including “Coaches’ Corner”—coaches sharing their faith stories, and “Courtside”—Bethany staff member and former youth pastor, Paul Morgun, sharing and challenging the campers in how we are called to “Live, Move and Be” based on Acts 17:28. This discussion was followed up every evening in dorms with small group time led by our staff. Campers enjoyed times of recreation including a trip to Redberry Bible Camp for swimming and other activities offered by the camp. A highlight happened during the trip home on the bus, when good-old camp songs were led by one of our enthusiastic campers! Friday activities capped off an awesome week, and included fun basketball competitions such as a Team Shooting Challenge, an Outdoor 3 on 3 Tournament and an AllStars vs Coaches game. The week ended with the Closing Program that parents were invited to attend. Awards were handed out to the following campers for their efforts throughout the week: • Christian Leadership Awards: Madison Bugler (Female - North Battleford, SK); Jesse Sly (Male - Tofield, AB) • Most Improved Players: Beth Springer (Junior - Foam Lake, SK); Josh Williams (Senior - Blaine Lake, SK) • Most Valuable Players: Brooke Vanderkooi (Junior Saskatoon, SK); Teilhard Volk (Senior - North Battleford, SK) Our camp has been a success if, as we have hoped and prayed, each camper has gone home with additional skills on the basketball court, but more importantly, with the confidence in the knowledge that there is a loving and forgiving God who desires a relationship with them – no mat-

Radisson Jamboree There was no lack of activity over the weekend as the community of Radisson held its 2nd Annual Jamboree August 11 and 12. Kicked off with a parade on Saturday morning, the event included ball games, beer gardens, a tractor pull, gymkhana, agriculture and art displays, kids’ activities as well as a old time, country and gospel music entertainment. The jamboree was held in conjunction with the 91st Annual Radisson Agricultural Fair. Clockwise from right: Horse-drawn carriages are always a big hit with parade goers; Mayor Walter Kyliuk gives an appreciative wave to residents and visitors that lined the parade route; with a little assistance, a youngster excitedly gathers up treats tossed from passing floats; Darcy Yaseniuk of Hafford races to the finish line in the egg crushing contest; artwork and horticultural displays were on hand for viewing; Joan and Glen Julseth of Borden perform Saturday afternoon in the big tent; several children decorated bikes for the parade, much to the delight of those who lined the route on each side of Main Street.

Saskatchewan continues mountain pine beetle fight Saskatchewan will contribute $450,000 to mountain pine beetle control efforts in Alberta as the two provinces work together to aggressively detect and remove infested trees at the leading edge of the infestation in eastern Alberta. The partnership agreement provides a framework for a comprehensive regional strategy to combat the beetle before it gets established in Canada’s jack pine forests and aims to stop or significantly slow the beetle’s spread into Saskatch-
ewan’s north. The mountain pine beetle outbreak has killed approximately 60 per cent of British Columbia’s lodgepole pine forests. Six years ago, the infestation crossed the Rocky Mountains, spreading halfway across Alberta. Research has confirmed that mountain pine beetle can survive in jack pine which means that forests in northern Saskatchewan and across Canada are at risk. “The mountain pine beetle represents a significant threat
to Saskatchewan’s pine forests and to the environmental, social and economic contributions they make to our quality of life,” Environment Minister Ken Cheveldayoff said. “Working with Alberta provides our best chance of preventing this insect from becoming established in our majestic northern forest.” “We appreciate Saskatchewan’s recognition of the interprovincial implications of mountain pine beetle infestations in our boreal forest and
how this impacts our environment, our communities and our economies,” Alberta Environment and Sustainable Resource Development Minister Diana McQueen said. “This partnership is a great example of the many ways we work closely with our neighbours to strengthen our region.” The Government of Saskatchewan is contracting with Great Western Forestry Ltd. to survey forests in Saskatchewan’s northwest and in the Cypress Hills for mountain

pine beetle and to mark infested trees for removal. This is the second year the province has contracted with Great Western to a value of $350,000. “Jack pine makes up 40 per cent of Saskatchewan’s softwood volume upon which a significant portion of our forest industry depends,” Cheveldayoff said. “The mountain pine beetle program will help protect the long-term sustainability of Saskatchewan’s forest and its industry, which currently accounts for more
than 2,600 direct jobs and more than $400 million in annual product sales.” Surveys will begin in September and be completed by November. Last year’s surveys detected no mountain pine beetle in Saskatchewan outside of the known infestation in the Cypress Hills. The information provided by the insect and disease surveys is essential to the development of an effective provincial and regional response.
