Following the sudden snowstorm that blanketed the region over the weekend, this moose was photographed Monday on Highway 305 between Warman and Martensville making the most of the sunshine and warm temperatures. Motorists are reminded to use caution, particularly on this stretch of highway, as several moose have been spotted roaming the area.

War of words heats up between school division and province

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca The provincial government appears to be feeling the heat from school divisions upset over what they view as an unfair funding model.

The provincial government announced late last week that it has commissioned a review of its education funding formula. The review is chaired by Johnson-Shoyama Graduate School of Public Policy executive-in-residence Dan Perrins. The announcement of the review follows on the heels of a scathing report card issued by the Saskatchewan School Boards Association (SSBA), which said the current funding model scored a “c-minus” on sufficiency, autonomy, equity and transparency.

The Prairie Spirit School Division (PSSD) has been particularly vocal in its criticism of the funding model, with numerous letters to parents of students throughout the division issued by the PSSD board of education in the past two months.

It’s not a course of action that the PSSD Board wanted to take, but it was one they felt they had to take, according to Bonnie Hope, PSSD board of education representative for Martensville. In a presentation to the Martensville City Council meeting on Tuesday, April 21, Hope outlined the school board’s case for going public on the issue, and asked city councilors for their support in the effort to revamp the funding model, which was introduced in 2012.

Hope said the PSSD student population is predicted to grow by 350 students in

TERRY PUGH | CLARK’S CROSSING GAZETTE

Prairie Spirit School Division Board of Education representative Bonnie Hope addresses Martensville City Council on Tuesday, April 21 the coming school year. She said it is likely that roughly half those students will be in Martensville schools.

“As one our many municipal partners, the city’s support is very important,” said Hope. “This is probably the fastest-growing community for student growth in the province. But in our school division we are looking at a $7.1 million dollar budget gap for the 2015-16 school year.

“We are forced to draw from our reserves and make adjustments, and our biggest concern is the quality of education.

“It is with a heavy heart that we have had to take this into a more public forum. It is not the path we wanted to go down, but we felt obligated to inform our stakehold-

ers of our true situation.”

Hope said the PSSD has until June to finalize its budget, but because of the financial crunch it is already a month behind schedule. The PSSD board has had numerous meetings with Education Minister Don Morgan, and Hope said those discussions will continue.

“We had to draw down $3.5 million from our reserves last year,” said Hope. “We have no way to build those reserves back up because taxation rests with the province.”

Hope said the school division is receiving roughly $4,000 per student less than comparable school divisions in the province, and said the funding model must be changed to make it more equitable.

Massive wildfire in RM of Great Bend taxes resources

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca Firefighters from four communities, assisted by a provincial rapid response team from Prince Albert, battled a massive wildfire in the RM of Great Bend for twenty-four hours straight last week.

The fire, which began in the community pasture northeast of Borden near the North Saskatchewan River, began Wednesday afternoon, April 22, about 3:00 p.m. It continued to burn through the night and firefighters were still engaged in efforts to control it at 9:00 on Thursday morning, April 23.

Cooler temperatures and some rainfall on Thursday morning also helped firefighters’ efforts to bring the fire under control. By 1:00 p.m. on Thursday, most of

the fire crews were heading back to their respective halls, with the exception of the Borden firefighters who remained at the scene to mop up hot spots.

The cause of the fire was unknown, but it appears to have started accidentally in the vicinity of a wood-cutting operation in a thicklywooded area.

Firefighters from Borden and Radisson were the first to respond to the call, and Langham firefighters were called in shortly after. Dalmeny Fire Rescue was dispatched at about 3:30 p.m. on Wednesday.

The fire at that point was at least two kilometers wide, and was being fanned by a light southeasterly breeze.

The area where the fire was raging is very inaccessible, with few roads. The terrain is extremely rocky, and

many of the trails are still muddy or impassible because of water in low areas.

While the ground was soft, the “prairie wool” grass was quite long and also very dry, and areas of thick bush are also quick to catch fire.

Firefighters also facied the challenge of lack of water. Water tenders from Dalmeny, Langham and Borden were supplying water to firefighters engaged in battling the fire on foot and also with four-wheel drive wildfire trucks.

A provincial rapid-response team from Prince Albert was called in by local firefighters, and they joined the effort at about 6:30 p.m. on Wednesday evening.

The local firefighters had also requested the assistance of water bombers to aid in the effort.

Municipalities collaborate to prepare for the unexpected EMO coordinators take part in training session

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca Disasters don’t come with much, if any warning.

But Emergency Measures Organization (EMO) Coordinators, in communities large and small, need to be ready for anything, often at a moment’s notice.

EMO Coordinators in the Saskatoon region are working together to ensure they are equally prepared to handle whatever comes their way. With Emergency Preparedness Week in Saskatchewan (May 3-9) just around the corner, the issue takes on a higher profile.

The North Saskatoon EMO Mutual Aid organization held a training session in Warman in mid-April.

Saskatoon EMO Coordinator Anthony Tataryn led the workshop, outlining the steps involved in completing various emergency declaration forms and covering a number of areas related to emergency planning.

EMO Coordinators from Warman, Martensville, Osler, Rosthern, and other communities in the area participated in the session.

Martensville EMO Coordinator Tracy Wilson-Gerwing said the focus of the session was to review the incident command system (ICS).

“I’ve worked on this be-

OPEN HOUSE

City of Saskatoon EMO Coordinator Anthony Tataryn speaks at a training session in Warman on April 17 fore, but the more you go over it, the easier it becomes,” Wilson-Gerwing said in an interview following the session. “It’s also useful to have these types of sessions where EMO coordinators can talk shop and learn more about each other’s emergency preparations. It helps to know there are resources out there that we can call on if we need to, and that we can lend a hand if necessary to our neighbours.”

Wilson-Gerwing said that while Martensville does not have a permanent Emergency Operations Centre (EOC) like Warman, it can utilize Martensville City Hall or Martensville Fire Hall as its EOC at almost a moment’s notice.

She added that she is hoping to implement a training session in the near future

to enable EOC officials to go through a disaster simulation exercise. In the meantime, she said, she is training different sectors in their respective responsibilities.

“My philosophy for training is to lay the foundation first to give people the tools they need when they step into the bigger situation,” she said.

Warman EOC Coordinator Randy Meginbir said the joint training sessions are extremely useful.

“It’s always good to work together with other communities and ensure that everyone is on the same page,” he said. “A big advantage we have is that Saskatoon is so close. It’s a big city with a lot of resources, including hazardous materials specialists and equipment, that we can utilize if we need to.”

Province rolls emergency public alert system

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca A public alert system that utilizes radio and television broadcasters is being rolled out across the province.

The SaskAlert system is similar to one in the United States where a tone alerts the listener and is followed by a warning message, according to Jean Longpre, federal provincial program coordinator with the Ministry of Government Relations.

The system is designed to provide critical information in real time to the public so they can take action to protect themselves, their

family and their property from natural disasters such as tornadoes, blizzards or flooding.

Longpre explained how the new program works to municipal and emergency measures officials at a meeting in Martensville on Wednesday, April 22.

The project began in 2008 at the national level, said Longpre in an interview prior to the meeting. It has gradually been expanded as more broadcasters signed on.

Saskatchewan began participating in 2013, and a test concept area was set up on the western side of the prov-

ince. The first alert was issued earlier this year, said Longpre. “It’s going to take some time for the entire province to get full implementation,� said Longpre. “We’re a big province and there are a lot of jurisdictions. “It’s a voluntary program.

All the major radio broadcasters in Saskatchewan are now up and running with SaskAlert, but television stations are taking a little longer. They were supposed to be in by March 31, but the CRTC has granted an extension. It will definitely be fully implemented by late summer or early fall.�

Education funding model inadequate

READER OPINIONS

This letter is in regards to the article entitled “Provincial Funding Model not based on equality, says PSSD,” which appeared in the April 16, 2015 CC Gazette.

Why don’t we invest in our children’s education?

As a parent of kids in the PSSD, I want our kids to have a good education that will serve them well. In my opinion, our PSSD high schools should offer all mathematics (algebra, geometry/ trigonometry, and calculus), all sciences (biology, chemistry, and physics), band program, and extracurricular sports. In order to “Keep Saskatchewan Strong” we need to provide comprehensive and effective education for our children.

I find it appalling that our MLAs would take out expensive advertising that supports the government rather than do their duty to represent the concerns of their constituents. Hiding behind capital announcements of new schools is a feeble attempt to use Jedi mind tricks on us. The Force is strong with PSSD parents; MLAs hand waving and diversionary tactics won’t fool us. (BTW – I can’t wait to see the new Star Wars – The Force Awakens!) Perhaps in the next elections we will see an awakening of those who haven’t taken an interest before and make real change for our kids and the PSSD. Glenn Wright Vanscoy

Expect little change in rural Sask.

A word of explanation, and mea culpa Many readers responded to the photo The Gazette ran on the cover of the April 16 edition, and it is incumbent on me, as the photographer and editor, to take the blame for a very unfortunate decision in that regard. I did not realize at the time that fishing season did not begin until May 5. The person in the photo also did not realize that, as she is not a Saskatchewan resident, and fishing regulations differ widely from province to province. She did, in fact, do her best to follow the provincial regulations, and purchased a fishing license at a convenience store in Saskatoon. She asked for a copy of the regulations, and the store apparently did not have any in stock at the time. She was also told by the clerk who sold her the license that she was good to go. If she had been given correct, factual information, she never would have cast her line. Fishing out of season is not something that should be taken lightly, but the publication of the photo was unfortunate because the incident was subsequently magnified out of proportion. I deeply regret the error.

Make no mistake that a lot of conservative politicians will be re-elected in rural Saskatchewan in the coming year.

With a federal election slated for this fall and a provincial election to follow in April 2016, the odds are good that Stephen Harper’s Conservatives and Brad Wall’s Saskatchewan Party will again be well represented.

There just doesn’t seem to be many viable alternatives; neither another practical alternative further to the left nor an alternative to the right.

The thought crosses one’s mind as we now watch two right-of-centre parties in Alberta; where the overall political sentiments and issues often resemble rural Saskatchewan; duke it out for control of the province.

Much to the surprise of many who assumed current PC Premier Jim Prentice had done in the Wildrose Party when he convinced its former leader Danielle Smith to cross the floor, the Wildrose still appears to be in bloom. According to the last polling numbers, Prentice’s PCs trailed both the Wildrose and even the NDP in the polls; a startling poANGELA HEIDEL

litical development no one predicted.

Yes, even the Alberta NDP seem to have found a way to relate to the province’s right-of-centre voters and are in the game. Now one might think that is good news for the federal and provincial NDP here in Saskatchewan. One might also argue re-emergence of the left-for-dead Wildrose Party is something that bodes well for Rick Swenson trying to revitalize the old Progressive Conservatives.

But for very different reasons, don’t expect a repeat here.

In regard to Swenson, the rest of the province doesn’t dislike Brad Wall and the Sask. Party as much as Swenson does. There is simply no groundswell of discontent; especially in rural Saskatchewan; with either the Sask. Party leadership or his running of government.

Credit Swenson for making some headway on some very specific issues like

The Gazette is distributed free of charge to residents in the area. Subscriptions outside the market area within Canada are available at an annual rate of $109.00+GST.

Craik’s fight to maintain a doctor, the postponement of the Surface Rights Act that that had affected farm and ranch owners, and the changes coming to large institutions like pension funds owning Saskatchewan farmland.

For a party with no seats and political machinery to speak of, this has been a rather amazing track record. And rural Saskatchewan does need someone capable of such critiques.

But Swenson simply does not have any political machinery. That differs greatly from the Wildrose Party that got considerable financial endorsement from Alberta’s oil sector, social conservatives and even a lot of average Alberta voters fed up with the big spending ways of Alison Redford and now the cuts of Jim Prentice.

Swenson has none of that going for him.

However, one thing that Swenson does seem to have going for him is experience in rural Saskatchewan and an understanding of its issues. This differs greatly from the federal and provincial NDP politicians who, along withe Liberals, continue to struggle to prove they

are relevant to modern-day rural Saskatchewan.

Consider comments recently made by provincial NDP agriculture critic Cathy Sproule at the legislature, who lambasted Agriculture Minister Lyle Stewart for not insisting on being consulted by federal Agriculture Minister Gerry Ritz in advance of the deal to sell the Canadian Wheat Board assets.

In fairness, Sproule is a bright person trained in law and did grow up on a farm.

And it’s not as if she didn’t have some valid points, questioning whether Saskatchewan farmers were getting true return on value for these assets.

But she also did so with little or no recognition of her party’s political history in rural Saskatchewan or recognition of the reality that a New Democrat now raising the Wheat Board likely turns off more voters than it attracts.

“The Wheat Board debate is over,” Stewart succinctly responded after Sproule’s questions.

And so, frankly, is any chance of much changing in rural Saskatchewan in the coming federal and provincial elections.

1. Set your camera to the highest resolution possible. The more resolution, the better the

final outcome of the photo in print.

2. Don’t be shy! Get close to your subject(s). Most photos taken with a built-in zoom lens extended will

produce “grainy” images that do not reproduce well.

3. Attempt to get dynamic photos of something happening instead of just a quick snapshot.

4. “Presentation” photos typically don’t work well if there are too many people side-by-side in the frame.

If there are many people in the photo, have them as close together as possible and, if needed, have

the front row seated and the back row standing.

5. Remember taking a picture facing into the sun or bright light will produce poor quality images.

RM OF CORMAN PARK

Traffic bylaw amended to include East Floral Industrial Park The RM of Corman Park’s Department of Public Works is continually working on a number of projects for 2015.

A gravel tender for crushing in Vonda has started, 2015 capital equipment purchases have been completed, the 2015 gravel program map is being worked on. The RM is hoping for an early start; if weather permits, some areas could start within the month of April.

Grader operators have started blading gravel roads, with some areas receiving shoulder pulls. Rock picking has started in areas west of Martensville.

Public Works staff has received a large number of garbage complaints, so crews have been up picking up garbage.

BYLAW AMENDMENT

RM Administration requested amendments to the current Traffic Bylaw 17/15 to include the East Floral Industrial Park and all its associated roads; specifically the portion located on TWP Road 360 from Hwy 16 east to the entrance of East Floral Industrial Park.

Municipal Highways within the RM of Corman Park, unless otherwise restricted by the Municipal Road Restriction Bylaw, or specifically indicated within the Vehicle Weight Management Bylaw, are designated as having a Secondary Provincial Highway Weight Standard. Initially East Floral Industrial Park and its associated roads were not included in bylaw 17/15.

It was recommended that

Council approve the amendment to the Traffic Bylaw listing East Floral Industrial Park under Appendix 2 concerning the Vehicle Weight Restrictions.

NEUHORST UPGRADES

Public Works is looking at a number of different options to overlay Range Road 3050. The first option is to overlay with no additional base work, According to documentation presented to council, Neuhorst Road is 4.5 miles in length and AMEC reported resurfacing to cost $5,475,000.00. These roads were studied by AMEC Engineering in early 2013.

Within the 2015 budget, money has been allocated to deliver a thin lift overlay because it was seen to be a possible cost-effective option of repairing and extending the life of the current road surface.

Administration has sourced opinions from three local paving contractors on what the best possible options are in terms of overlay thickness and mill and fill possibilities. All three have strongly recommended that an overlay is not an option, due to the existing condition and relatively poor base and visual indications of clay protruding from existing failures. This means that there won’t be any warranty/guarantee to ensure proper performance and the overlay will need to be completed at an increased depth.

The project estimate is $1,156,800 for this option and does not include a remedy

to address the base and sub base.

Option two includes a zipper and a double seal coat to the standard used today.

The old asphalt would be incorporated back into the structure. Once that is complete a 150mm base layer will be added and a final chip seal surface will be applied. The total cost for this option is $939,646.

Option Three includes performing level course patching , deep patching and possible paver patching for a total cost of $199,867.

The RM, with mostly inhouse resources and operational funding, could complete needed base repairs and asphalt spot repairs (deep patching) on multiple failed locations. As well it would be the RM’s intention to complete zipping and level course patching on the larger sections.

It was felt this was the most cost-effective method of maintaining this road to a surfaced standard and will increase its life by approximately six years.

The section off the new Highway 305 and North on RR 3050 for half a mile is mostly gravel and will also need to be addressed within this option if it is to be surfaced, as well the 200 meter section closest to the Hamlet is currently gravel.

Students raise funds for charity, memorial skate park

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca Martensville High School (MHS) students may not be wild about tests, but they’re more than happy to take test drives.

Especially if it means getting behind the wheel of a brand new 2015 Ford Mustang.

A bright orange ‘Stang was the first one to hit the streets when representatives of Merlin Ford Lincoln showed up at MHS on Friday, April 24 for a “Drive One for Your School” event. With every test drive that day, Ford of Canada donated $20 to the school’s charity of choice.

Project Change, a student club at the school that raises funds and promotes awareness for charities both locally and globally, was the organizer of the test drive, as well as a chili barbecue and an “artists united” concert the same day. All three events were aimed at raising money for good causes, explained Breanne Cooper, a teacher at MHS who helps coordinate the club’s activities.

“All the proceeds from the chili barbecue will be going to the skateboard park in memory of Kyle Syrenne,” said Cooper. “Donations

SHOW SUITE OPEN SUNDAYS 2PM-4PM

from Super Valu and Smokehaus Meats helped us make the barbecue a success.”

Syrenne is a former MHS student who was murdered in BC earlier this year. Police are continuing to investigate the case. Syrenne was a skateboard enthusiast, and his family and friends are looking to raise $50,000 to get the skate park project off the ground. So far, over $26,000 has been raised.

Cooper said the funds from the test drive, a raffle and the “artists united” evening will be split between the “Free the Children” foundation and local charitable initiatives.

Merlin Ford Lincoln general sales manager Colin Anderson said the Ford Motor Company sponsors sever-

al programs, including the “Drive One for Your School”, in which community-based charities or schools can apply to the company. If the application is accepted, Ford partners with local dealerships.

“In this case Martensville High School requested that we be part of it and we’re happy to do that,” said Anderson. “For every qualifying test drive, Ford donates twenty dollars to the school to use for their charitable event.”

While the mustang and the new F-150 pickup attracted the most attention, Anderson said that young budgetconscious drivers are just as likely to “take a step back” and hop in a Focus for a test spin.

Poles were toppled and power lines strewn in every direction in the compound of a nearby automotive repair shop

Crane mishap knocks out power in Warman

By TERRY JENSON tjenson@ccgazette.ca An early morning mishap on Wednesday, April 22, resulted in power being cut to the majority of Warman.

A crane operating at a site on Corman Street just west of 6th Avenue contacted an overhead power line and subsequently broke five poles.

The operator reportedly jumped from the crane and was not injured.

Warman RCMP and Warman Fire Rescue responded to the scene and cordoned off a one block area while SaskPower crews worked to stem the flow of

electricity in the downed lines. A series of chain link fences dividing the properties compounded the hazard for first responders as electricity was believed to be flowing between the properties along the fence lines.

The accident, which happened at about 8:15, caused significant damage to the power poles but also to some property. A pole fell onto a minivan parked in the compound of a nearby automotive repair shop while a second pole damaged an RV parked on an adjacent property.

Ron Martens and Andrew Martens, the owners of RA

Auto Repair, were working inside their shop at the time of the accident. Both men, along with two customers, remained inside the building until SaskPower crews were able to shut off the flow of electricity.

SaskPower restored power to most parts of the city by 10:30 a.m. However, customers in the vicinity of the mishap did not have power restored until about 11 p.m.

Wednesday night.

SaskPower crews and environmental cleanup technicians were still involved in repair work at the scene the following morning.

Warman launching Notify Now alert system May 1 Starting May 1, residents of Warman will have the opportunity to self-register for the City’s Emergency Notification System (ENS) service called “Warman Notify Now.” The system, similar to the ENS implemented by the City of Saskatoon last March, allows residents to choose what information they would like to receive

and how.

The City of Warman has partnered with Everbridge to introduce Warman Notify Now, an ENS system designed to alert residents about a variety of events, ranging from severe weather, fires, floods and other emergencies, to more routine announcements, such as road closures and water

cy response. To uphold this, when critical information and public service announcements are available, we need to reach our residents as quickly and reliably as possible,” said Randy Meginibir, EMO Coordinator for the City. “The Warman Notify Now notification system allows the City of Warman to disseminate this information

utility maintenance. Messages will be sent to residents on their preferred contact paths—cell phone, SMS, home phone, email, fax or via the Everbridge mobile app—to ensure real-time access to potentially lifesaving information.

“We have a commitment to ensure public safety, community awareness and emergen-

across all types of devices, ensuring residents have access to real-time public information when they need it the most.”

Interested residents can optin to the service by clicking the NOTIFY NOW link at www.warman.ca, by attending the City’s Open house on May 14th or by request at joshw@warman.ca .

Cancer Society presents award to City of Martensville

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca Martensville City Council was given the Canadian Cancer Society’s “Healthy Choices, Healthy Lifestyle� award in recognition of the city’s recently-adopted bylaw regulating smoking in outdoor public spaces.

The award was presented to Martensville Mayor Kent Muench at a city council meeting on Tuesday, April 21 by Canadian Cancer Society Cancer Control Coordinator Diana Ng. The City of Warman was presented with an identical award at a meeting on April 13. Both cities adopted similar bylaws within weeks of each other.

In her presentation to Martensville council, Ng said municipal leadership is essential when it comes to initiatives aimed at cancer prevention. She said 50 per cent of all cancers can be prevented through healthy lifestyle changes and healthy public policies. “Unlike federal or provin-

to all of the sponsors who supported our 10th Annual Ladies Diamond Dinner making it another successful evening.

Martensville Mayor Kent Muench accepts the Healthy Choices, Healthy Lifestyles Award from Canadian Cancer Society Cancer Control Coordinator Diana Ng cial governments, municipalities are able to adopt public health policies more quickly,� said Ng. “Policies that directly impact the health of their citizens.�

She noted that indoor smoking bans were first implemented in Saskatchewan by municipalities over a decade ago, and the provincial government eventually followed their lead. She noted that regulations governing outdoor smoking in public spaces are gaining steam across the country, with five provinces and territories adopting provincial smoke-free

legislation.

But in Saskatchewan, Martensville and Warman are the first two municipalities to adopt comprehensive outdoor smoking bylaws. “Your commitment to cancer control is an inspiration to other municipalities to do the same,� said Ng.

Assault victim dies of injuries A 44-year-old Saskatoon man who suffered severe injuries in an assault in a Martensville parking lot on April 5 has died of his injuries.

Dear Residents: The purpose of our newsletter is to provide all residents in Warman & area with information as to what is happening in business, sport and our community. We believe it is important that as a learning and highly-involved community, we share this information with everyone. Please feel free to call Josh (306-933-2133) or Jennifer(306-933-1929) if you have suggestions or information for our newsletter.

Hello from Mayor and Council, Appreciation is a wonderful thing, it makes what is excellent in others belong to us as well....Voltaire Volunteer Appreciation Week, April 12-18, 2015, is about inspiring, recognizing and encouraging people to seek out imaginative ways to get involved in their communities. It's about thanking the people in our community for taking the time out of their busy lives to make a difference.

On April 16th the City of Warman hosted a Volunteer Appreciation supper to say thank you to the volunteers and to present a select few with three very special awards. This year’s recipients are truly one of a kind. They consistently showcase their passion and dedication to our community.

Volunteer of the Year Award presented to Matt Misskey.

Youth Volunteer of the Year Award presented to Raija McCallen.

Committee of the Year Award presented to Sonia’s School of Ukrainian Dance.

Congratulations to our 2015 Volunteer Award Recipients.

Great news for the City of Warman! On March 18th the Provincial Government made the much awaited announcement that Warman would see the Overpass/Interchange project begin. The project is expected to be completed by late fall of 2018. We understand that with such major construction taking place at a key intersection in our city (Central Street) that we will experience traffic delays and line ups. This will be short term pain for long term gain. The Ministry of Highways will be hosting an Open House in May to engage the communities of both Warman and Martensville in this process. As soon as all the details of this Open House are known we will advertise them on our Website, social media, as well as the local papers.

Respectfully Submitted by: Mayor Sheryl Spence The Finance and Administration Committee has been busy over the past few months working on initiatives that include:  Completing the 2015 Budget, which includes funding for the Prairie Oasis Skate Park.  Finalizing the 2015 Property Tax Bylaw.  Working with the City’s Auditor for the Year Ended 2015. The auditor is to make a presentation to Council on April 27th, 2015.

With staffing back to the full complement, the Finance and Administration Committee will continue to work on the following initiatives:  Initial Asset Management Plan Steps – In 2015 the Committee will conduct an internal analysis involving asset management and the level of depth we want the plan to go into (starting with

roads and utilities), as well as the RFP for consulting/engineering services.  A 5 year capital plan will be finalized and presented to the Executive Committee with anticipated adoption in 2015.  A policy in relation to reserves will be drafted in order to formalize the process. The following will be included in the policy:  The names and types of reserves that are to be established;  How these reserves will be funded;  What the reserve funds will be used for.  A sub-committee will be formed to look at best practices regarding talent management.

Over the past few months the Finance and Administration Committee has worked through several staffing challenges. These challenges include:  Recruitment and hiring for two key positions, Administrative Assistant and Finance Manager; welcome Brittany Hadley and Brett Ferguson to the City of Warman.

We welcome Brett Ferguson our new Finance Manager to our team. Brett graduated from the University of Saskatchewan with a Bachelor of Commerce. He currently has his CPA and CA designation. Brett resides in Saskatoon with his wife Jennifer and their new daughter Elodie.

We welcome Brittany Hadley our Confidential Administrative Assistant to the team. Brittany graduated from the University of Saskatchewan with a Bachelor’s of Commerce. Brittany is a new resident to Warman as of August, where she lives with her husband David and young son Noah.

Respectfully Submitted by: Councillor Kevin Tooley, Administration Chair Committee Chair.

The winter and early spring has seen some key work done by your Protective Services Committee. These areas include further development of our emergency measures capacity, support for our fire fighters, continued work with the RCMP and an update on the Warman Neighborhood Watch.

A priority for our Protective Services Committee has been the development of an Emergency Operations Centre (EOC) and an emergency alert system.

Randy Meginbir, our EMO, has done a great job in preparing our EOC and the majority of the prep work is now complete. As well, after research done by the Committee, an alert system has been put in place through the company Everbridge. This system allows the City to communicate with emergency personnel and the citizens of Warman in a timely manner. In partnership with the City of Saskatoon, we have adopted the Notify Now name for this system to increase its effectiveness. To sign

up, look for the Notify Now link on the City of Warman website.

On April 8th, the City of Warman tested both our Notify Now alert system and our EOC with its first table top exercise. The information gathered as part of this exercise will help your emergency personnel improve the EOC and the way they respond to any emergency event. These systems allow the City of Warman's response to be the best it can be.

In the City of Warman, we are lucky enough to be protected by a volunteer fire department that is second to none. They train and work hard to be the very best at what they do. They have had some high profile rescues this year, such as the one at the river crossing this winter. They also work tirelessly every day responding to fires and accidents both within Warman and in the area surrounding our community. To do this work they need the very best of equipment available. Both the Committee and Council as a whole has approved a budget for the City that has included the renewal of equipment for our firefighters such as a grassland fire truck. Deputy Fire Chief Austin has also secured a training grounds for the department thanks to a donation from KH Developments.

The Committee continues to meet with the RCMP on a regular basis to discuss how we can ensure our citizens are as safe as possible. One initiative taken by the City of Warman has been our notification to the RCMP in regard to events within the community. This allows RCMP to plan ahead and be prepared especially in terms of staff numbers. We have also been busy planning for future policing needs in Warman and area with our partners in Martensville. As both our communities grow it is important to take proactive steps to ensure the RCMP are able to meet the needs of our communities. We are outgrowing our current detachment space.

The Warman Neighbourhood Watch has had a quiet winter, but not without work being done. Mark Stiglitz and Marshal Seed have been doing research to prepare for spring and summer, and have called for a meeting on Tuesday, April 21st at 6:30pm at the Brian King Center. There will be activities for children their so parents who wish to attend can do so. For more information, please view the Warman Neighbourhood Watch Facebook page.

As always, if you have any questions about Protective Services, you can email me at trevorp@warman.ca.

Respectfully Submitted by: Councillor Trevor Peterson, Protective Services Committee Chair.

As always, do not hesitate to call your Mayor or Council if you have questions, suggestions or just want to chat. We always welcome conversation with the residents of this great city.

government of Saskatchewan and the RCMP have been working on this for quite some time. We’re hoping to have the building renovations complete, the staffing positions filled and get a sizeable number of volunteers recruited and trained by the end of this summer.

We want to move this along as quickly as we can.”

Warman RCMP Staff Sergeant Kevin Weber, a member of the SCVS board, said this is the last big area of Saskatchewan that didn’t have victims services. “In the past, the City of Saskatoon’s victims services agency has helped people outside the city boundaries, but they have had to reduce that help because of their own workload. It’s very important to have a service that is based in this area. It is a large part of the province, but the idea is to have trained volunteers in local communities who can provide that help when it is needed,” said Weber.

SCVS Board Chair Collette Lessmeister said volunteers are the foundation of the service. She noted that once the two assistant coordinator staff members are hired and have completed their security checks, there will be a series of meetings in a number of communities to attract volunteers.

SCVS Coordinator Sheri Watkins, a native of Kelowna, BC who previously worked with the Victims Services program at the La Ronge RCMP detachment, said while the task ahead is daunting, the service can

“I have a very large to-do list,” said Watkins. “I’m a big fan of post-it notes. Our next step is to hire two assistant coordinators to staff the offices in Humboldt and Kindersley, and from there we’ll recruit and train volunteers. Ideally I would like to see at least one volunteer in each of the RCMP detachment jurisdictions.”

Watkins said potential volunteers can pick up applications at the Martensville RCMP office on Centennial Drive. She said volunteers will be provided with a 40hour training course, and noted the program demands considerable commitment from the volunteers who are accepted.

“It’s a big commitment,” she said. “But it is such important work. You’re working with victims of crime and helping people through some very traumatic experiences.”

Warman updates fire prevention bylaw The City of Warman updated its Fire Prevention Bylaw at a council meeting on Monday, April 27.

The new bylaw includes new wording to the “fireworks and fire pit” sections of an existing bylaw. The updated bylaw was given all three readings at the April 27 council meeting.

The amended wording states the size of a “noncombustible receptacle” for backyard fire pits must be built “into or on bare ground, or a non-combustible surface such as patio stones, brick or patio blocks.” The new bylaw also states that chimineas are allowed to be placed on any non-combustible surface.

The bylaw states that fire pits or chimineas must be “not within three meters (10

feet) of property line buildings or fence, or beneath any trees, branches or other combustible materials.” The fire pit must also be covered with a heavy gauge screen with openings not exceeding half an inch.

A change in the bylaw wording now states that residents do not require a permit to have private fireworks displays on Canada Day and New Years Eve on private or residential properties. However, a permit is required for all other occasions. The permits are free and can be obtained at Warman City Hall.

Fireworks are not allowed on any public street or park unless the applicant complies with the guidelines and regulations set out in their permit.

In a recent survey of 2,461 Canadians, when it comes to driving traffic to automotive websites, or visits to a dealership, print and online newspapers rank highest.

They outperform TV, radio,

magazines, autoTRADER, Kijiji and social media.

Diamond Dogs heading to ISC World Tournament

By JAMES TARRANT james@ccgazette.ca After winning both the 2014 provincial and western Canadian Senior B fastball championships last season, Delisle’s National Leasing Diamond Dogs are looking forward to a new challenge this year.

In August the team plans to play in the week-long International Softball Congress World Tournament in South Bend, Indiana.

Diamond Dogs assistant coach Shawn Colborn said the Western Championship has become mostly dominated by Saskatchewan and Alberta teams, while the ISC will provide a wide variety of international teams.

It will be a new experience for some Diamond Dog players, who have never played in the tournament, said Colburn “It is the best softball tournament to go to in the world. There are a lot of big teams there. We are not fooling ourselves thinking we are going to win because there are a lot of big budget teams that go to it. We are just going there to try something different,” said Colborn.

Colborn said he would be happy if the Diamond Dogs finished in the top ten in the world at the tournament.

He said the ISC World

Tournament annually has teams from eastern Canada, but there are a few western Canadian teams that make the journey to Indiana.

The Diamond Dogs had hopes of moving up the Senior A level provincially for the challenge of playing against the kind of strong pitching the Diamond Dogs would see at the ISC and to scope out a few players the team could possibly take with them to Indiana.

“To go from senior B to Senior A comes down to funding. It is more expensive to travel and because we are going to ISC already that is going to take up a good portion of our budget this year,” said Colborn.

Last year the Diamond Dogs borrowed talented Saskatoon pitchers Devin McCullough and Trevor Ethier from the Saskatoon Diamondbacks for the Senior B Western Championship, which the team won.

So far Ethier has committed to join the Diamond Dogs for the ISC. McCullough is one of SASAs and Saskatoon’s most promising pitchers who is heavily touted to be Team Canada’s number one guy during the ISF Men’s World Softball Championship in Saskatoon this summer.

This year the Diamond Dogs retired two players, second, third baseman and

shortstop Terry Wiebe. The team also lost Keith MacIntosh who played second base and was the team’s designated hitter.

Colborn said both Wiebe and MacIntosh were known names around the league and internationally.

“It’s hard to replace two former team Canada members, who are also great leaders and hitters,” said Colborn.

Leading up to the world tournament in Saskatoon softball fans in Delisle will get the opportunity to see world baseball talent when the Diamond Dogs take on Great Britain June 24 and a double header against New Zealand June 25. New Zealand is the ISF defending World Champion. Colborn said it is always gratifying to bring international softball talent home to Delisle.

“It is all about giving exposure to the game of fastball, and hopefully create some interest in the sport for kids growing up in Delisle and for kids to see the best softball players in the world,” he said.

Former Saskatchewan Roughriders outside linebacker Belton Johnson encourages Hunter Karwacki of Warman during footwork drills last weekend. Young football players from our area had a chance to practice with their football heroes at the Don Narcisse All-Star Football Camp held Saturday, April 25 at the Sasktel Sports Centre. Current and former Rider players, as well as members of the U of S Huskies, were the guest coaches at the one-day camp. In addition to the instruction and drills there were also autograph sessions. Proceeds from the event go to support the Big Brothers and Big Sisters organizations of Saskatoon and area.

Rough and tumble rugby season opens

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca Last spring, the Springboks junior rugby team made it all the way to the provincial final, finishing the season with a silver medal.

Not bad for a bunch of young players new to the sport. In fact, most of them had never even seen a rugby game before.

But Springboks coach Tyler Eaglesham has even higher hopes for this year’s edition of the Warmanbased team, now entering its third season.

“We’re super excited,” said

2015 memBerShiPS

Eaglesham in an interview during a team practice at the Legends Centre in midApril. “We have a good core group of guys, which is an advantage we never had in the past. Most of these players have two years of experience under their belts, so we’re not just teaching them the game now, we’re honing their skills.”

The Springboks Rugby Football Club (RFC) is a high school rugby program operating in the North Saskatchewan Rugby Union, a sub-union of the Saskatchewan Rugby Union. The team is open to all student-

athletes in Grades 8 -12 in Warman, Martensville and other surrounding communities. The Springboks RFC is a feeder team for the NSRU senior men’s team, the Krems RFC. The junior rugby season starts in early May, said Eaglesham, who also plays for the Krems senior rugby team. The team held indoor practices beginning in mid-April and outdoor practices started April 20. The team’s first game was slated for Tuesday, April 28 at the rugby pitch on English Crescent in Saskatoon. The team’s schedule is online

at www.springboksrfc.weebly.com. Eaglesham said the team is also pumped about the second annual “Rugby Day in Warman” slated for Saturday, May 23 at Neufeld Field, near Warman High School. The day features four rugby games, starting with a junior girls game at noon; a senior women’s game at 1 p.m.; a junior boys game (Springboks versus All Blacks) at 3 p.m. and a senior men’s game at 4 p. m. (Krems versus Badgers).

Eaglesham said it’s a family event with a bouncy castle for the kids and a food concession booth.

CVAC athletes win gold at badminton district championships

By GRANT ELKE Extra-Curricular Commissioner Central Valley Athletic Conference In an effort to minimize the number of substitute days required to hold the senior high school badminton playoffs, CVAC modified the format used to determine its 2015 district champions.

On Wednesday, April 22, six venues were used to host the 24 schools competing in 2015. From each site, two teams in each of the five categories – boys’ singles, girls’ singles, boys’ doubles, girls’ doubles, and mixed doubles – advanced to the district finals at Martensville High on Saturday, April 25, hoping to become one of the two teams advancing to regionals in Meadow Lake, dreaming of advancing from there to provincials in Moose Jaw

lenge of the ‘final four’, from which the two finalists would advance to play the following weekend..

singles playoffs

The singles’ playoffs were filled with lightning attacks and amazing defence. In the boys’ singles semifinals, VCA defeated Colonsay and Hepburn defeated Perdue in straight sets. In the final, VCA used his experience to defeat Hepburn 21-12, 21-9, capturing the 2015 title.

In the girls’ singles semifinals, VCA defeated Warman in two sets while Martensville needed three sets to defeat Dalmeny, winning the last set by two points. In the final, VCA defeated Martensville 21-18, 21-18 in two tightly contested sets, capturing another title for the school.

district championships

doubles playoffs

At the district championship, team’s skills and conditioning were definitely challenged. Players were grouped into two pools of 6 from which two teams advanced to the playoff round.

This meant that competitors played as many as five matches prior to the chal-

The doubles’ playoffs featured amazing quickness as the shuttle darted back and forth across the net.

In the first semifinal of boys’ doubles play, Warman defeated Colonsay in a three set battle, winning the third set 21-19. In the sec-

Stars settle for bronze

By JAMES TARRANT james@ccgazette.ca It wasn’t the result the Saskatoon Stars were hoping for at the 2015 Esso Cup in Red Deer, but the team’s bronze-medal finish as the third best female midget team in Canada is also a significant accomplishment.

In the tournament’s round robin play the Stars defeated the Sudbury Wolves 3-2 on April 19, and the Central Plains Capitals by the same score on April 20. They lost 3-2 to the Edmonton Thunder on April

21, edged the host city Red Deer Chiefs 3-2 on April 22 and pounded the Moncton Rockets 7-1 on April 23.

In the semi-final the Stars were edged 3-2 by the Chiefs, which dropped them out of contention for the gold medal game April 24.

The Stars rebounded in the bronze medal game by defeating the Central Plains Capitals 5-1.

Sophie Shirley led the team scoring in the tournament with 9G-7A followed by Nara Elia with 5G-8A and Julia Rongve with 4G-6A.

Warman team wins Tier 4 crown The Warman Volleyball Club won the Tier 4 15U women’s provincial championship last weekend.

The tournament was held in Warman and Saskatoon and featured dozens of men’s and women’s teams in a variety of 14U, 15U and 16U divisions.

The Martensville Outer Limits Blue team placed third in the Tier 5 15U Women’s division, while the Martensville Outer Limits White team was seventh in the Tier 4 15U women’s division.

The Waldheim Briercrest team finished first in the Tier 1 16U women’s division, while the Warman Volleyball Club finished in eighth place in that division.

Martensville Outer Limits Ice placed seventh in the Tier 3 16U women’s division.

Three teams from Valley Christian Academy (VCA) are Central Valley badminton champions. Martensville High School teacher Myles Loeffler, who coordinated the tournament, presents awards to the winners. Justin Laskowski (left) won the boys singles, beating Hepburn in the final 2-0. Adrian Laskowski (Centre) won the girls singles, by beating Martensville High School 2-0 in the final. Spencer Longfellow and Jared Reddekopp (Right) won the boys doubles, by beating Warman High School 2-0 in the final. They all will represent CVAC in Regionals this Saturday in Meadow Lake. (Photos submitted by Syd Laskowski) ond semifinal, VCA 1 defeated VCA 2 in two well played sets.

In the final, VCA maintained the school’s winning ways, as they defeated Warman 21-16, 21-14, capturing their third championship of the day.

In the girls’ doubles playoffs, Martensville defeated Hague in straight sets, while Perdue 2 defeated Perdue 1 in three very tight

sets, winning the third set 24-22. Perdue kept the momentum going as they upset Martensville in the final 1321, 21-14, 21-15, capturing the title.

Finally, in mixed doubles, Colonsay defeated Perdue 1 and Hepburn defeated Perdue 2 in staight sets.

Hepburn came out firing in the final, defeating Colonsay 21-15, 21-12 to capture the 2015 mixed championship.

Because Colonsay was unable to play the following weekend, the third place match between the two teams from Perdue had greater significance, as the winner also advanced to regionals. Two very tight sets gave the victory to Perdue 2 as it defeated Perdue 1 22-20, 30-29.

advance to regionals

Thus, the 2015 CVAC bad-

minton champions advancing to regionals in Meadow Lake were Justin Laskowski (VCA) in boys’ singles, Adrian Laskowski (VCA) in girls’ singles, Spencer Longfellow and Jared Reddekopp (VCA) in boys’ doubles, Danielle Munro and Emilie Martin (Perdue) in girls’ doubles. and Robin Kohl and Katie Hamm (Hepburn) in mixed doubles.

Valley United attracts soccer players from many communities

By JAMES TARRANT james@ccgazette.ca Valley United Soccer Club recently began its second outdoor soccer season with a few changes and a call for more coaches to get involved with the program.

The club had a very successful indoor season, coming away with two golds won by the U18 Division 2 Boys and U14 Division 2 Boys and a silver medal by the U16 Girls.

Lora Noel, administrator with the VUSC, said she was very happy with the club’s first outdoor and indoor seasons.

“I felt very positive. We had a lot of great coaches, good leadership, kids seemed to enjoy themselves and we have seen a lot of improvement,” said Noel.

This year’s changes include a U10 Girls team. Last year the club had a U10 boys team. There was enough U10 Boys players available but they didn’t have a coach this year.

This season the club will

field an entire U16 Girls team because last year there were not enough players.

U16 level girls last season had to play on the United U18 Girls team to compete in league and post-season play.

On a positive note, the club is seeing more participation from local communities.

“We have a big contingent of players from Aberdeen Minor Soccer that have joined us in addition to players coming out of Warman and Martensville,” said Noel.

The numbers for all teams, which include a U10 Developmental Girls team, A U12 Boys Premier team, U13 Girls Division 3 team, U14 Boys Division 2 team and U16 Division 3 average about 78 to 100 kids.

Noel said the biggest stumbling block in building the club has been finding enough coaches. In most cases parents who have played soccer also have kids that play on VUSC teams.

U of S Huskies sign third Warman athlete

By JAMES TARRANT james@ccgazette.ca Warman High School athletes will be making an impression on University of Saskatchewan Huskie teams in the coming years.

The Huskies already signed hockey player Jenna Nash and basketball player Janaya Brown. Volleyball player Jayden Weber will be the third athlete from WHS who will soon wear the green and white colours of the University of Saskatchewan Huskies.

Weber grew up in Warman and played most of her volleyball for Warman High School and club volleyball for the Jr Huskies.

In her Grade 11 year, when her family moved to Edmon-

ton she also played High School Volleyball there and for the Pandas Volleyball Club.

WHS Senior Girls Volleyball coach Peter Schmidt described Weber as a confident player that can play all positions well, but the setter position is where she really dominates.

Schmidt also said Weber is one of the reasons why WHS won regionals this year.

“I think she is one of the best volleyball setters in the province. She also has a lot of confidence, shows she can continually do better and is a strong leader for her teammates on and off the court,” CONTINUED ON PAGE 20

NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC

Pursuant to The Municipalities Act, public notice is hereby given that the Resort Village of Shields intends to restructure by adding the following lands from the RM of Dundurn #314 to the Resort Village of Shields.

The land to be added to the Resort Village of Shields is All that portion of New Road shown on Registered Plan No. 69S02467 in the SE 1/4 Sec. 7 – Twp. 33 – Rge. 03 – W3M lying North of a line being the production Westerly of the South limit of Plan 102035090.

Noel stresses that even if parents don’t know anything about soccer the club has a support network to assist coaches with limited playing experience.

“We always tell parents that if your child has an interest and you have an interest even if you don’t have experience, the courses are great and there is a coaching panel that will help you, so don’t be scared to be involved.”

Noel said there is some hope of attracting older players who have an interest in coaching.

“Everyone’s time is limited and what we are looking at now is some older soccer

players, U18 or university students who have played the game at all levels and may be looking for extra experience to add to their resume or they want to give back to their community,” said Noel.

Noel hopes as the club grows, people will recognise the difference between VUSC and town minor soccer programs, which she said sometimes gets confused.

“It is not that the town level soccer is poor. Coaches have to take their level certification and there are a lot of dedicated parents. We are more specific to skills training,” said Noel. “I also

think there is a misconception that our club focuses on elite soccer and that is not the case. The U12 boys will be playing at the highest level which is premier. We also have teams in Division II and III in league.”

Noel said she is looking forward to a strong showing from all of VUSC teams.

“Our U16 Girls Team nev-

The R.M. has no owner-

ship or involvement with any structures or lands associated with the MLID. It was recommended that Moon Lake Irrigation District be contacted and advised of the potential funding assistance being offered by the Irrigation Structure Repair and Replacement Program (ISRP) for the 20152016 fiscal year.

The collision happened on Friday, April 24 at approximately 11:00 p.m. Members of the Radisson and Martensville RCMP Detachments responded to a call of a van that collided with the back of a transport truck abotu one kilometer east of Field-

ing on the Highway 16.

The deceased female was a passenger in the van.

She was transported by ambulance to hospital in North Battleford where she died as a result of her injuries.

None of the other passengers in the vehicle were injured. The name of the deceased is not being released by police.

Huskies sign Warman High athlete said Schmidt.

Myron Mehler, technical director with Sask Volleyball, said Weber’s talent for the game was first noticed at the U16 Provincial ID Camp two years ago.

“Jayden is an athletic player who has ‘soft hands’ which is a major characteristic for a strong setter,” said Mehler. “Her quickness to the ball also contributes to her setting qualities. She is an aggressive athlete who will attack balls that keep her opposition off guard.”

Mehler added that Weber uses her athletic quality in playing defence, which makes her very valuable in back row defence and makes her a threat at playing right side.

Mehler said those qualities will make her a valuable setter for her post-sec-

ondary volleyball career with the Huskies. It is a position Weber feels the most comfortable playing.

“I feel like I am in control of the game as a setter and I have been told that I am a good leader on the court in that position,” said Weber.

A big part of helping her play to the top of her game was Schmidt, who she said helped her game in many ways.

“He is a very positive coach and pushed me in ways that other coaches haven’t. He expected a lot from me and I tried my best to give it back,” said Weber.

Mehler said it is always an adjustment for every high school athlete advancing to a CIS University team.

“Most athletes entering a CIS program take time to adjust to the hectic sched-

ule of academics, workouts, training, travelling and competing,” said Mehler. “A setter is the “quarterback” of the team and has a different set of technical and tactical skills to develop and this will take many hours working by herself and with her fellow athletes.”

Schmidt said WHS is quite proud to have played a role in the development and encouragement of three Warman athletes who will be part of Huskie squads in the near future.

“It’s amazing how many top end athletes are coming out of Warman, especially on the girls side,” said Schmidt. “It seems like a common thing but it’s not.

A lot of people in Saskatchewan want to play at the college level so it shouldn’t be taken for granted.”

RM OF CORMAN PARK

Reeve touts RM at major realtors conference

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca Corman Park has advantages that make it attractive for residential, industrial and agricultural development, according to Corman Park Reeve Judy Harwood.

“It’s actually kind of shocking how much we offer in the way of services,” said Harwood in an interview on Friday, April 24.

“We have everything from golf courses, restaurants, and hotels to riding stables, race tracks, an international heritage park, a new aging-in-place seniors complex, and even part of the Trans-Canada Trail. That’s an aspect that often gets overlooked in the Saskatoon region - how much that Corman Park has to offer.”

Harwood said Corman Park has lower residential and commercial mill rates than urban municipalities in the area, and are in line with adjacent RMs. “We’ve done our homework,” she said. “While there is a perception that Corman Park has high taxes, the reality is that we compare very favourably with neighbouring RMs and urban centres.”

She noted the RM’s close proximity to a major city is an advantage for many types of commercial oper-

ations that require a large footprint.

“Farm implement dealers are an example of the type of companies that are very well suited to highway commercial development,” she said.

Harwood was slated to speak as part of a panel on “Regional Growth Management and Infrastructure Planning” at the 2015 Saskatchewan Real Estate Forum on Tuesday, April 28.

She was scheduled to be a keynote speaker on the panel along with Saskatoon Mayor Don Atchison and Regina Mayor Michael Fougere.

The Real Estate Forum is held every two years. First held in 2011, this year’s conference was expected to attract roughly 500 delegates from across western Canada. Roughly 35 per cent of

the delegates are from outof-province.

Harwood said the opportunity to highlight the region surrounding Saskatoon will not only benefit Corman Park, but also other municipalities as well.

CITIZEN of the year

The RM of Corman Park is looking to institute an annual “Citizen of the Year” award.

Harwood said a resolution to that effect will be introduced at a future council meeting. She noted that many municipalities have similar awards, which are aimed at recognizing contributions by volunteers in the local community. She said if the resolution is adopted, criteria for the award and other details will be developed over the coming year.

Delisle maps out plans to upgrade, expand ball diamonds, outdoor facility

By JAMES TARRANT james@ccgazette.ca Delisle has a rich history of championship fastball and baseball teams, and this summer the community is taking steps to keep that tradition going into the future.

In early April the Delisle Town Council passed a resolution to create a new multipurpose outdoor recreation area on the west side of town. Preliminary earthwork is slated to start moving on the project in mid to late May from the design created by Saskatoon-based engineering firm AECOM. Delisle Town Councilor Curt Gessell stated in an email to the Gazette that the town, in cooperation with Delisle Minor Ball, originally planned to upgrade the current softball diamonds on the south side of Highway 7.

But with the announcement of the twinning of Highway 7 earlier this spring, that plan changed.

Instead, land purchased by the town in 2007 will be used to build two diamonds.

The town is hoping to have these new diamonds ready for the spring 2016 softball season.

One of the main advocates for the project is councilor Ryan King.

King said the Ministry of Highways and Infrastructure’s (MOHI) plan to move Delisle’s east entrance a mile further east of the town meant council had to look at whether it made sense to upgrade the diamonds on the south side of the tracks. The reconfigured highway would have left those diamonds even more separated from the community, said King.

Joel Durham, President of Delisle Minor Ball, said he is very excited about having two new fastball diamonds in the community.

“One of the things that may prevent parents from signing their kids up in softball or baseball is dated ball diamonds,” said Durham.

“The new facility will generate a lot of interest and give

local kids the opportunity to play in a top end facility.”

Durham said Delisle Minor Ball currently has just over 60 kids signed up. But he added that some of Delisle’s boys and girls play on bantam and midget teams that are combined with communities such as Warman and Conquest. In addition, other kids play in Saskatoon leagues. He estimates the total number of Delisle youngsters involved in the sport is closer to 80.

Delisle’s Crops for Community initiative donated $42,000 towards the new ball diamonds.

The remainder of the project’s funding will come from the town. The town is applying for several grants to supplement the funding they are providing. The new ball diamonds will be located in the west edge of Delisle, close to 2nd street and the town’s water treatment plant.

“We are trying to use the existing contours of the land as much as possible. We will have to do some earth work, which includes cutting and filling of the ground to get to the desired elevation and grades that we want for the ball diamond. That is the first step,” said King. “The second step will be to install the fencing, new backstops, and the chain link fence that will go down each foul line.

“Then we will have a 250 foot home run fence similar in standard and style to what you would see in Saskatoon or other modern diamonds.”

During this process a new irrigation system will also be installed, said King “We are going to have an automated irrigation system, which is going to be fed from the town water system. Our initial thought this year is to get some water flowing to the new diamonds, but our longer term goal next year would be to use well water either from wells or from an adjacent wetland or slough so we are not using treated water on the diamonds to irrigate,”

NOTICE OF ADVANCE VOTING {Subsection 160.53 of the Act}

The Rural Municipality of Montrose No. 315 Municipal By-Election 2015

PUBLIC NOTICE is hereby given that provision has been made for (an) advance poll for electors who: 1. are physically disabled; 2. have been appointed as election officials; or 3. anticipate being unable to vote on the day of the election.

Voting will take place on Friday, May 22, 2015, between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. at the RM of Montrose No. 315 in Council Chambers located in the Hamlet of Donavan, Saskatchewan.

Dated at Donavan, the 23rd day of April, 2015.

Donna Goertzen, Returning Officer

said King.

The building of the two diamonds this summer is considered to be phase one of the project. Phase two, which will begin next summer, will include the addition of two additional diamonds as well as a concession stand that includes washrooms and storage area. Other potential upgrades include extending 2nd avenue to create better road access, and planting trees to add some shelter. King said the town has received quotes from local and Saskatoon contractors for some of the needed work, but laying the estimated 90,000 square feet of turf will take a few bodies.

“We will put a call out to the community when we get to that stage. We will need lots of extra bodies and manpower,” said King.

Gessell said council is very excited to lay the groundwork to provide a recreation facility that Delisle and surrounding communities can benefit from.

“One of the benefits of having a facility like this is the opportunity to host major ball tournaments, which will bring people to our community,” said Gessell. “Last year the Delisle National Leasing Diamond Dogs hosted New Zealand’s National Team in an exhibition game in Delisle. It was a great turnout and we would like to continue to provide our residents with more opportunities like

Plans are in place for exciting changes to the streetscape of Delisle this.”

King said a community needs great recreational facilities, so building two new ball diamonds in a new area of Delisle is not only exciting for the community, it will also pay dividends as a real important amenity down the road.

Another sellout likely for NICU fundraiser

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca The Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) at Royal University Hospital will get a big boost from a fundraising event coming up in May. “Bloom... An Evening of Love in support of the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit” is slated for Friday, May 8 at O’Brian’s Event Centre in Saskatoon. It’s the fourth annual edition of the fundraiser, which was started by two young mothers from Martensville whose babies received life-saving treatment at the NICU. The event is likely to be another sellout, said Amy Novakovski, one of the founders of the event. But this year, she expects the amount raised for the specialized unit will exceed previous donations.

“It has become a tradition, and it’s evolved as well,” said Novakovski in an in-

“We’ve renamed it to reflect the new format and also to show our vision for the future.”

Novakovski said the event is always held on the Friday of the Mother’s Day weekend.

“That’s important to us,” Gazette VNEWS to she said. “It’s symbolic hold it at that time because as mothers, we will always feel like we can never give enough back to these people who did so much for our little babies when they were so vulnerable.”

Novakovski said the event will feature a catered supper, live auction, silent auction, and live band. But the allEy thE SaSkatchEWaN

most exciting part is always how the evening encourages people to share their stories of how the NICU impacted their families in a positive way, she said.

“It is so amazing to see the community come together and share a common bond and a common cause,” she said. “They all have this connection to the NICU that is truly heart-warming.

There are no words to describe how it feels to be able to give something back after all they have done for us.”

Novakovski said the funds from the event will be given over to the NICU in early June. She noted that donations are likely to continue to flow in after the May 8 event. “We have set up a crowd-funding site where people can donate,” she said.

“The GoFundMe link is :gofund.me/nhw29g .”

Seeing what’s important in life

Visual impairments don’t slow down these energetic toddlers

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca Lily Roberts and Harper Vey don’t like to sit still very long. In fact, the two energetic toddlers, who live about a block apart from each other in Warman and are the best of friends, hardly even slow down during their waking hours.

But they also share a common bond they’re both still too young to comprehend. Their parents, on the other hand, know it all too well.

The children, both under 18 months old, were each born with serious visual impairments: Lily with cataracts and Harper with opaque corneas. Both kids were diagnosed while they were babies and have gone through a series of delicate operations. They also both wear specially-designed glasses to protect their eyes and enable them to see better.

Mallory Roberts, Lily’s mother; and Robyn Vey, Harper’s mother, are hoping to raise awareness among parents of the need to diagnose eye problems in infants and toddlers early. They also want to provide their own youngsters; and others in the region who also wear glasses or eye-patches; with a special fun-filled day.

The “Great Glasses Play Day” is set for Saturday, May 2 from noon to 3 p.m. at the Kinsmen Park Play Village in Saskatoon. It’s billed as a celebration of kids who wear glasses.

“It’s a play day for kids who have eyeglasses, contacts, patches, or who have other visual impairments,” said Roberts. “We will have an optometrist there, and we’re going to have someone from the CNIB. They have special glasses that show you what it’s like to have cataracts or glaucoma or other eye problems. It’s a way of educating people about vision issues in a supportive, fun way.”

Roberts said the playday event has been going for four years nation-wide, but this is the first year for the Saskatoon area. The two young mothers kind of fell into the role of organizers after they connected recently.

Lily Roberts and Harper Vey are the best of friends “We didn’t even know each other until about six months ago,” said Vey. “We just kept hearing: ‘oh, there’s a little boy who wears glasses,’ or ‘there’s a little girl who wears glasses’.

Roberts said she looked up Vey on Facebook. They were both surprised to learn the other lived in Warman. “We can see each other’s houses from our kitchen windows,” said Roberts. “So we connected immediately, not just because of the fact that there

TERRY PUGH | CLARK’S CROSSSING GAZETTE

aren’t that many kids that have these kinds of eye issues, but also because we’re neighbours.”

Roberts said Lily went through many operations at the Stollery Children’s Hospital in Edmonton. Her first operation took place when she was only two months old.

Vey said Harper’s surgeries, including two cornea transplants, were done in Toronto. The youngster was also chosen as this year’s “poster boy” for Telemiracle.

Vey said the Telemiracle Foundation helped pay for the dozens of flights they’ve had to take to and from Toronto in an effort to give their litRobyn Vey (left) with son Harper and tle boy a chance to Mallory Roberts with daughter Lily have partial sight.

MOOSE JAW MYSTERY Osler students really dig Tunnels of Time books

By TERRY PUGH tpugh@ccgazette.ca When Mary Harelkin Bishop first toured the mysterious tunnels that run under Moose Jaw’s old central business district, the experience left a big impression on her.

Fifteen years later, the Saskatoon author is working on her sixth mystery novel in the “Tunnels of Time” series aimed at young readers. The series mixes historical facts with literary fiction, and it’s proving to be a big hit with students at Osler School.

Grades 4 to 9 classes at Osler School embarked on a “One Book, One Hallway” project last February when they invited Bishop to the school to read the first chapter from Tunnels of Time. In the intervening weeks, the students and their families all read the rest of the book a chapter at a time together. It was a twist on the “One Book, One School” initiative especially tailored to Osler School, said Shannon Bymoen, a teacher at the school and one of the organizers of the project.

“We’re a K-9 school, and we have one hallway for Grades 4 to 9,” said Bymoen. “That’s why we opted for the One Book, One Hallway’ name, because it was geared toward the older students, and the book was written especially for their age group.”

Bymoen said the kids were thrilled to meet a real-life author back in February, and after reading the book, they were even more enthusiastic during her second appearance on Wednesday, April 22. The students showed off their artwork and other projects based on their favourite part of the book; many posters depicted notorious Chicago gangster Al Capone, who was rumoured to have been in Moose Jaw during the 1920s.

“The projects were aimed at encouraging the kids and their families to work together, to read together and to just spend some time enjoying literature,” said Bymoen. “The kids are really excited about this because there is a connection. They know the person who wrote the book, and they knew they were actually going to visit the tunnels on April 30 at the conclusion of the project.”

Bymoen said literacy is an important life skill, and by showing students that it’s also fun, the school is hoping to encourage kids to read on their own.

Bishop said she was honoured and humbled when she learned the school had chosen her books for the project.

“They’ve done an awesome job here,” said Bishop. “This is the culmination of the project, and I’m here to answer questions and talk about writing and editing and books in general. I started writing when I was nine years old, and when kids hear that, it will hopefully give them encouragement.”

Saskatoon author Mary Harelkin Bishop is dressed as a 1920s flapper during her appearance at Osler School on Wednesday, April 22. Harelkin read from her book, “Tunnels of Time” and introduced students to the rest of the books in the popular series, set in Moose Jaw. Students at Osler School are heading to Moose Jaw on April 30 to tour the tunnels as a reward for reading the first book in the series.

The many benefits of hiring a professional landscaper The flowers are blooming, and the grass has begun to grow anew, making spring a great time for homeowners to once again turn their attention to landscaping.

Those who aren’t looking forward to dusting off their lawnmowers and rethreading their string trimmers may want to hire professional landscapers to tend to their lawns and gardens.

A recent joint study by the National Gardening Association, Residential Lawn and Landscape Services and the Value of Landscaping found that homeowners spend roughly $45 billion per year on professional lawn and landscape services, as nearly 30 percent of all households across the United States use at least one type of lawn or landscape service. The rising use of lawn care services is indicative of homeowners’ appreciation of the convenience and craftsmanship professional services can provide. While the impact professional landscapers can have on a property’s aesthetic appeal is considerable, homeowners also benefit from working with professional landscapers in various other ways.

Time savings

One of the biggest benefits of leaving lawn care to the professionals is the amount of time it will save for the average homeowner. Lawns generally need to be mowed once per week during the spring and summer seasons and, depend-

ing on the size of the property, that can take an hour or more. Add the time it takes to clean up clippings, mulch landscaping beds and edge the property, and homeowners can expect to devote a significant chunk of their weekends to caring for their lawns. Lawn services employ a few workers who make fast work of the job, leaving homeowners time to enjoy their weekends however they see fit.

Reduced risk for injury

Maintaining a landscape is hard work, and those unaccustomed to this type of activity may find themselves winded or at risk of injury. Improper use of lawn equipment also is a safety hazard. Leaving the work to professionals can help homeowners avoid strained backs, lacerations, pulled muscles, sunburns, and any other dangers that can result when tackling landscaping projects.

Financial savings

On the surface, hiring a landscaping service may seem like a costly venture.

However, after crunching some numbers, many homeowners realize that doing the work themselves may cost more in the long run than hiring a professional landscaping service. Homeowners who decide to go it alone must purchase expensive equipment, and those lawn tools will require routine maintenance, which costs additional money. Inexperi-

enced homeowners may incur extra fees to “fix” mistakes that occur during the learning process.

Each year, new seed, fertilizer, mulch, pesticides, and other supplies also must be purchased. But professional lawn care services typically charge a set fee per month, and that fee covers the maintenance of both your property and the equipment needed to keep that property looking great.

Know-how

Many professional landscapers know how to address lawn care issues that may arise throughout the year. They will know how to deal with dry patches of lawn or poorly draining areas, and they also can make recommendations on plants that will thrive under certain conditions.

One-stop shopping

Certain landscaping services provide many different options for prospective customers. Basic lawn cuts may be one package, but there also may be services for seasonal seeding, weeding, leaf clean-up, and winterizing.

Consistent maintenance

Homeowners who frequently travel or spend much of their summers away from home often find that lawn care companies are a wise investment. Established weekly schedules ensure the landscape always will look its best whether homeowners are

Time saved and a professional job are just two of the reasons homeowners hire lawn care companies.

home or out of town.

Spring is a great time for homeowners to decide if hiring professional landscaping services is in their best interests. The time and money saved, as well as impact professional landscapers can have on a property, makes landscaping services a great investment for many homeowners.

Maintaining bird feeders and bird baths essential to avian health

Bird watching is a pastime enjoyed by people of all ages.

While many people trek into the woods to see their favorite birds, homeowners can take steps to entice these fascinating and feathered friends right to their backyards.

Homeowners who want to attract birds to their properties can do so by providing the birds food, shelter and places to wash up or cool off.

Installing a bird feeder and a bird bath in your yard is one way to attract a bevy of winged creatures that can provide hours of enjoyment.

Establishing a bird-friendly environment may seem as simple as hanging a feeder on a pole or tree and erecting a bird bath nearby. But a certain level of mainte-

nance is needed to keep birds healthy and happy.

According to the experts at the Bird Watcher’s Digest, recent research indicates feeders can sometimes be a source of disease for the birds visiting them. The Audubon Society echoes that warning, saying that bird feeders and baths can serve as transmission stations for diseases such as aspergillosis, avian pox and salmonellosis. Recently, scientists noted that the spread of trichomonad protozoan parasites is on the rise, especially among mourning dove and band-tailed pigeon populations.

Such warnings are not meant to deter budding birding hobbyists. Organizations like the Audobon So-

ciety hope that such warnings send the message that disinfection and maintenance is necessary to maintain sanitary environments for birds. Doing so is relatively easy and well worth the time for birding enthusiasts.

· The Humane Society of the United States advises cleaning hanging feeders once every two weeks or more often if they’re heavily used.

Ground-feeding designs should be cleaned every two days. Feeders can be immersed in a very-diluted solution of bleach to water (nine parts water to one part bleach). Let soak for a few minutes, and then scrub the feeder with a stiff brush or scouring pad before rinsing. Allow the feeder to dry completely before refilling it with seed.

· Bird baths should be emptied of water each day. Brush or wipe the bath clean, then rinse and refill with fresh water. Do not leave standing water overnight; otherwise bird baths can easily become a breeding ground for mosquitoes and other parasites. · Frequently collect discarded seed hulls and clean bird droppings from beneath feeders. If the area around the feeder has become especially soiled, relocate the feeder elsewhere and clean its initial location. · Follow proper instructions with regard to seed and other bird food. For example, reduce the amount of suet offered in hot weather.

Heat can cause suet to spoil, and sticky suet can become stuck in birds’ feathers and make it hard for them to keep clean. · Try to provide more than one feeder and bird bath to prevent overcrowding. Crowding can contrib-

ute to the spread of disease. · Do not situate feeders and bird baths under perches where they can be soiled by droppings. · If you notice birds look sick or are not acting strangely, halt feeding and bathing to prevent healthy birds from becoming ill.

Wait a week before resuming feeding and notify wildlife officials if you find dead or sick birds around your property. · Locate feeders and baths at least 30 feet away from windows so birds do not get confused by reflections and collide with the glass. · Store seed in a dry container with a tight-fitting lid to prevent mold from form-

ing and moisture from getting in.

Creating a thriving habitat for bird watching is easier than one might think.

But once birds begin visiting a yard, homeowners must diligently maintain

Pruning trees a job best left to the pros

do-it-yourselfers who rely on climbing trees or using ladders are at risk of injury.

Bountiful, healthy trees can be beautiful to behold and important contributors to a thriving environment. According to American Forests, a nonprofit conservation organization, a tree can absorb as much as 40 pounds of carbon dioxide per year and can sequester one ton of carbon dioxide by the time the tree reaches age 40. The United States Forest Service adds that trees placed properly around a home can reduce air conditioning and heating demands considerably.

Many homeowners are content to leave healthy trees alone.

However, trees eventually must be pruned or removed if they become safety risks or pose other threats. Trees with roots that are damaging home foundations or those with limbs overhanging property limits or power lines can be troublesome. Although homeowners can handle relatively minor tree maintenance, for a variety of reasons, many tree projects are best left to the professionals.

Prevent damage to the tree

Many tree services understand the proper way to prune trees to minimize stress and damage to the tree itself.

Novice pruners may inadvertently do more harm than good, resulting in proliferation of tree disease or shock. Improper pruning technique also can lead to an unsightly tree.

Liability

A professional tree service will possess the correct liability and worker’s compensation insurance. This protects homeowners against litigation should someone be injured while tree work is being done.

Homeowners who damage neighboring properties when cutting down a tree may find that they are not covered by their homeowner’s insurance policies.

This can be a costly mistake that’s easily avoided by simply hiring a fully insured tree removal service.

The right tools

The right tools can mean the difference between a job done correctly and one that results in disaster. Professional arborists and tree services have acquired the training, tools and techniques to perform the job safely. This includes using the right tools to tackle the job. Ropes, pulleys, cranes, stump grinders, and other heavy machinery are just a few of the tools tree services have at their disposal that the average homeowner does not.

Avoid injury

Professional tree contractors recognize and understand the hazards associated with tree and limb removal. Many operate in accordance with national or local guidelines to maintain proper clearance of power lines and structures.

Trimming trees close to electrical lines puts a person at risk of being electrocuted. Professionals know how to protect themselves and prevent power outages, which can result when limbs come into contact with power lines.

Professional tree services will use machinery appropriate for the task. Cherrypickers and cranes may lift workers to the correct height to work on trees, while

Secrets to keeping an organized shed Despite other intentions, homeowners often turn their garages into storage centers for random, little-used items, leaving little to no room for the tools and even vehicles that actually belong in a garage.

Such homeowners may turn to sheds to store their garage overflow and keep yard equipment at the ready, but storage sheds are not immune to clutter, and homeowners may find the very structure erected to keep them organized requires a bit of organization itself.

A well-organized shed can save homeowners time and energy, as it’s easy to abandon or delay a project if you can’t find that pair of work gloves you stashed. The first step to any organizing project is to take everything out of the shed and determine just what needs to go back in. Items that do not belong in the shed should be moved to their rightful locations or tossed in the trash if they’re no longer needed.

Make a pile of anything that will be kept, a separate one for donations and a third for garbage. Take inventory of what you have so you know whether you’re missing any items or you have something and do not need to purchase another.

Now that the entire shed is empty, you can assess just

Utilizing vertical and overhead space effectively can free up areas on the floor for larger equipment.

Shelving, racks, pegboards and any other materials that enable you to hang or store items off the floor are good investments. Visit your nearby home improvement retailer to find items that can simplify your storage.

You also may be able to put scrap wood to use to make

your own storage shelves or a work bench. Extra kitchen cabinets can be installed in the shed to organize additional items.

In order to remember where items go, label or sort them accordingly. Some people like to take organization a step further by tracing the outline of tools hung on the wall so they can be placed back in the same spot after use. This also serves as a visual reminder of which tools

are missing and which ones need to be purchased.

Don’t forget to utilize shed doors as additional storage space. Hang frequently used tools, such as rakes and shovels, on the inside of the doors so they will always be easily accessible.

You also can repurpose storage solutions designed for other areas of the home.

For example, magnetic knife holders can be mounted to a shed wall to keep paint-

brushes organized. These holders also can be used to keep many small metal tools tidy. Metal funnels can hold twine and string. Thread through the narrow end of the funnel for a handy dispenser.

Keep dangerous substances off the floor and out of reach. Gasoline, chemical fertilizers and other potentially dangerous substances should be stored high up to keep pets and children safe.

Damage to a lawn may be indicative of various problems. Everything from insects to rodents to the family pet may be responsible for causing burnt patches, holes and other eyesores. Getting to the bottom of the problem is the first step in remediation. Burning and discoloration of the lawn is often a result of high concentrations of dog urine pooling in one area. Diluting the urine by hosing down areas of the lawn can clear up many problems. Birds, raccoons, skunks, moles, and other rodents may feed on grubs that reside just under the thatch of the lawn, and animals may tear up lawns in search of this delicacy. Treating the grub problem usually alleviates damage caused by animals. Mole crickets are another common lawn destroyer. These insects resemble crickets, but they burrow beneath the turf to feed on plant roots.

The mole crickets can push up channels of turf as they burrow, exposing roots to the elements and causing the grass to die.

Getting rid of the insects canrevitalize the lawn.

Sustainability is a concept that can be applied to many facets of life, and gardening is no exception. Sustainable gardening involves preserving and protecting resources, which can benefit us both in the present and in the future. Sustainability is especially applicable to gardening, and the following are a handful of ways green thumbers can embrace sustainability in their gardens.

Choose to water more effectively

Oscillating sprinklers may harken today’s gardeners back to the carefree days of their childhoods when they would run through the sprinklers in their parents’ yards. But such sprinklers can lose substantial amounts of water to evaporation. When designing an irrigation plan for your lawn and garden, use drip irrigation or soaker hoses to conserve water. If you must use sprinklers, make sure they are not shooting water too high, as wind can blow the water away from the yard where it belongs, and be sure to position them so no water is landing on sidewalks, the driveway or the street.

Add mulch to flower and Choose native plants A garden filled with exotplant beds ic plants and flowers may Many a gardener has gone to bed with a beautiful garden only to return in the ensuing days and see flower and plant beds littered with weeds. Mulch is perhaps best known for helping flower and plant beds retain moisture, but mulch also prevents the growth of weeds. Preventing weed growth means your water is going to the plants and flowers you intended it for and not to greedy and unsightly weeds. Preventing weed growth also reduces your use of potentially harmful pesticides to curtail the growth of weeds.

Develop a compost pile

Compost is made up of decayed organic material, and it can be used as a fertilizer.

Gardeners can make their own compost piles at home, providing valuable minerals and nutrients for their lawns, without having to rely on store-bought amendments that need to be produced, packaged and transported before they can make it onto the shelves in your local lawn and garden center.

be stunning, but unless those plants are native to where you live, that beauty is coming at a steep price.

When choosing plants for your garden, choose native plants that are fully capable of thriving in your local climate. Non-native plants are likely to need excessive watering and other less sustainable attention that native plants do not need.

See more info at www.countryclipper.com/store/c1/mowers/p4/edge-xlt

When planting trees around your property, plant them in locations that can reduce your reliance on air conditioning in the warmer months. Plant a tree in a place where it will help to shade common areas inside your home so such rooms are comfortable without the air conditioner cranking all day long. You can go one step further, and plant deciduous trees that will shed their leaves when the weather gets cold, ensuring that sunlight you want to keep out in the summer can get in and warm up the house in the winter, reducing the amount of energy needed to heat your home.

Garden-inspired decor brightens spaces and mood This is a project the entire family can get behind, as the more creative ideas the better.

Many homeowners take up gardening to transform their homes with beautiful flowers and foliage, while others do so to yield fresh fruits and vegetables. But gardening can be more than just a weekend hobby. In fact, it may be especially beneficial for homeowners to surround themselves with more plants and natural decor, whether in the yard or in the home.

Studies have indicated that gardening can be good for the mind and body. In addition to improving mood and reducing stress, plant life and gardening also may help people have a more hopeful outlook on life. If reaping the benefit of a beautiful landscape is not reason enough to get into gardening, elevating your mood and coping with depression or illness may be even further motivation to start developing your green thumb.

Home-design trends seem to be following suit, offering individuals more opportunities to surround themselves with potentially therapeutic plants. Explore these emerging and established garden décor trends to try in and around your home.

Improved outdoor lighting

People who like to spend time in their gardens and yards may not want to be limited by sunrise and sunset. By incorporating different lighting sources, you can create a retreat that is welcoming at any hour. Although flood lights and overhead lights can illuminate a space, consider ambient and decorative lighting to create the desired ambiance.

Functional fire pits and places

A blazing fire creates a cozy spot to gather on chilly evenings, but fire pits and fireplaces also can be used as impromptu cooking spots for s’mores or frankfurters on a stick. You can purchase a stand-alone fire pit from any number of retailers or build your own with patio pavers and fire bricks to line the interior of the fire pit.

Outdoor fireplaces require more work, and you want to hire a mason to ensure proper installation.

Enjoyable yard additions

Living wall planters

A living wall planter can add greenery to any décor without taking up floor or table space. Ideal for outdoor structures, these planters also can be used indoors if you safeguard against leaks and dripping. A living wall planter is a framed device that houses plants in a manner that enables them to be vertically mounted to a wall surface. While there are commercially available models, you can create your own design and paint or stain it to match the existing décor. Use a soil-free potting substrate to avoid the mess that regular soil may create.

Combining fish with gardening

Enjoy the best of two relaxing worlds by

Fire pits and outdoor fireplaces are increasingly popular in backyards installing a water feature in your yard.

Garden retailers offer ready-made kits that can make fast work of establishing a pond or other water feature in the backyard. Otherwise, there are plenty of water garden companies and installers who can suggest a design and put in your desired water features. Add fish suitable for outdoor life to your pond. These include koi and certain goldfish varieties. Game fish are discouraged because they can destroy pond plants.

If an outdoor pond is more maintenance

than you desire, consider an indoor aquarium with a combination of fish and live aquarium plants.

Creative furniture designs

Maybe you’re a person who appreciates the unique and whimsical? Tables, benches and chairs can be built with planting channels that enable you to have greenery and garden décor in one piece. Envision a picnic table with a cutout down the center for a thin row of plants or decorative grasses.

While plants and seating may take center stage, some people still want to have fun in their yards. There’s an increased demand for yard designs and décor that can put the fun in backyard living.

Bocce courts, ring- or horseshoe-toss setups, as well as bean bag-toss boards, can be incorporated into landscape designs, giving you yet another reason to spend a few hours in the great outdoors, where you can experience a few healthy laughs in the process.

Gardening and spending time outdoors are great hobbies and may even boost your mood. Homeowners can explore the popular trends in garden décor and natural elements that they can enjoy inside and outside of their homes.

Going after grubs in your lawn on grass and roots. Many grubs are the larva of Japanese beetles, and those beetles typically lay their eggs in sun-drenched areas of lawns in midsummer.

What are signs of grub damage?

Applying an appropriate insecticide is one way homeowners can prevent grub infestations.

Landscaping is a rewarding hobby for many homeowners. Men and women with green thumbs often take pride in their lush lawns and gardens, feeling a sense of accomplishment as their landscapes spend spring and summer returning to form and making yards more inviting spaces to spend relaxing summer nights.

But even the most wellmaintained lawns are not immune to problems that can compromise all the hard

work men and women put into their lawns. One such problem many homeowners encounter is a grub infestation. Grubs are a type of pest that can cause considerable damage to lawns, and while many homeowners have no doubt heard of grubs, they might want to learn more about these pesky pests so they know what to do should grubs ever appear in their yards.

Grubs not only damage lawns on their own, but they serve as food sources for local wildlife as well, attracting wildlife, which can do its own damage to lawns.

Lawns can turn brown for a variety of reasons, and grubs are just one of many potential culprits behind the browning of once-luscious landscapes. Grubs feed on roots, so homeowners who suspect their lawns have fallen victim to grub infestations can pull up the areas where grass has turned brown to see if there are any grubs, which look like worms.

Landscapes that have suddenly become popular among local wildlife that is digging up lawns may also be infested with grubs.

Skunks and raccoons feed on grubs, and may dig up lawns where grubs are present.

eas that are turning brown in spite of adequate watering.

An early indicator of a grub infestation is small grubs around the roots of grass. In such instances, applying insecticide may be enough to prevent a small grub problem from spreading.

Insecticides also can be an effective preventative measure for homeowners looking to avoid grub infestations. Speak with a local landscaping professional for recommendations about which insecticide to apply and how best to apply it.

Raising Funds for Relay For Life

The Dazzling Divas , a group of 13 women from Dalmeny, Martensville, Victoire and Warman are working hard to make a difference. These ladies are entering their 7th Relay For Life in Saskatoon. It is an opportunity to get together with family, friends and supporters to celebrate cancer survivors remember loved ones and fight back in the hope of finding a cure. These ladies host a couple of events each to raise funds, as well as take pledges. The monies raised go to cancer research, education, & support in Sask. They held a very successful fund raising supper in Dalmeny at the J J Lowen Centre. The generous and enthusiastic crowd enjoyed a wonderful meal provided by Country Style Bbq followed by entertainment by Doug McConnell. The next event is the annual garage/food sale in Dalmeny on Saturday May 9 at 312 Cedar Ave. Come out and support the Dazzling Divas and purchase a gently used item or delicious baking. Saskatoon’s Relay for Life is Saturday, June 12 at Diefenbaker Park.
